Salud global, sistemas sanitarios y respuesta a la pandemia COVID-19
En esta publicación podemos encontrar una interesante reflexión sobre la salud global como un campo de conocimiento. En la primera parte se plantean cuatro perspectivas analíticas, considerando aportes de las Ciencias sociales, la Economía y las Ciencias de la complejidad, al debate sobre la globalización y la salud colectiva durante la pandemia. En la segunda parte se presentan los análisis de las respuestas de seis sistemas de salud a los retos derivados de la aparición y diseminación mundial del SARS-CoV-2 desde diciembre de 2019, hasta mayo de 2020. El propósito fue comprender los procesos que constituyen esos sistemas sanitarios frente a la COVID-19 y a partir de allí, elaborar un análisis crítico de su desempeño.
Youth Power in Precarious Times
Does youth participation hold the potential to change entrenched systems of power and to reshape civic life? In Youth Power in Precarious Times Melissa Brough examines how the city of Medellín, Colombia, offers a model of civic transformation forged in the wake of violence and repression. She responds to a pressing contradiction in the world at large, where youth political participation has become a means of commodifying digital culture amid the ongoing disenfranchisement of youth globally. Brough focuses on how young people's civic participation online and in the streets in Medellín was central to the city's transformation from having the world's highest homicide rates in the early 1990s to being known for its urban renaissance by the 2010s. Seeking to distinguish commercialized digital interactions from genuine political participation, Brough uses Medellín's experiences with youth participation—ranging from digital citizenship initiatives to the voices of community media to the beats of hip-hop culture—to show how young people can be at the forefront of fostering ecologies of artistic and grassroots engagement in order to reshape civic life.

Global and local perspectives on language contact
This edited volume pays tribute to traditional and innovative language contact research, bringing together contributors with expertise on different languages examining general phenomena of language contact and specific linguistic features which arise in language contact scenarios. A particular focus lies on contact between languages of unbalanced political and symbolic power, language contact and group identity, and the linguistic and societal implications of language contact settings, especially considering contemporary global migration streams. Drawing on various methodological approaches, among others, corpus and contrastive linguistics, linguistic landscapes, sociolinguistic interviews, and ethnographic fieldwork, the contributions describe phenomena of language contact between and with Romance languages, Semitic languages, and English(es).
