Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En el presente libro, se entrega un conjunto de doce textos los cuales fueron presentados en el I Seminario Internacional del Centro de Estudios del Desarrollo Económico y Social (CEDES) titulado Realidades y Debates sobre Desarrollo. Dicho seminario fue organizado en el marco del Programa de Cooperación Interuniversitaria e Investigación Científica financiado por la Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (AECID) y del que son beneficiarias la Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla y la Universidad de Murcia.Esta publicación no pretende de agotar el análisis de los distintos problemas del desarrollo, ni menos aún la de ofrecer alternativas para enfrentarlos, ya que ambas son tareas que sobrepasan los alcances de esta obra pero los textos que la integran constituyen un efectivo aporte a la revisión de dichos problemas y, con ello, al avance de un pensamiento alternativo sobre el desarrollo que es hoy más necesario que nunca.

Book Desarrollo  postcrecimiento y Buen Vivir

Download or read book Desarrollo postcrecimiento y Buen Vivir written by Unceta, Koldo and published by Editorial Abya - Yala. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Koldo Unceta Satrústegui, profesor en la Universidad del País Vasco, nos invita, con este libro, a revisar el proceso de surgimiento, consolidación y crisis del concepto de desarrollo. Para lograrlo, despliega sus profundos conocimientos sobre la material, en un esfuerzo que se destaca por su precisión y claridad. Luego de una revisión crítica de la evolución del concepto de desarrollo, el autor describe los elementos básicos del debate que, en años recientes, con sobra de razones, plantean la necesidad de construir no solo alternativas de desarrollo, sino, sobre todo, alternativas al desarrollo. Unceta puntualiza muy pronto, en s texto, que hubo críticas que emergieron poco después de iniciada la alocada carrera detrás de este concepto. La metáfora del desarrollo, tomada de la realidad al conectarse con el crecimiento económico, que se transforma casi en su sinónimo. En la actualidad, aunque es ampliamente aceptado que el crecimiento económico no puede ser una analogía de desarrollo, los gobiernos y las organizaciones de todos los colores todavía despliegan sus discursos directa o indirectamente alrededor de dicho crecimiento. Es una suerte de fetiche irrefutable, aunque se lo critique. Incluso el concepto de bienestar resulta cuestionable, como explica Unceta en este libro.

Book John Dewey s Great Debates   Reconstructed

Download or read book John Dewey s Great Debates Reconstructed written by Shane Ralston and published by IAP. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confirming his moniker as “America’s philosopher of democracy,” John Dewey engaged in a series of public debates over the course of his lifetime, vividly demonstrating how his thought translates into action. These debates made Dewey a household name and a renowned public intellectual during the early to mid-twentieth century, a time when the United States fought two World Wars, struggled through an economic depression, experienced explosive economic growth and spawned a grassroots movement that characterized an entire era: Progressivism. Unfortunately, much recent Dewey scholarship neglects to situate Dewey’s ideas in the broader context of his activities and engagements as a public intellectual. This project charts a path through two of Dewey’s actual debates with his contemporaries, Leon Trotsky and Robert Hutchins, to two reconstructed debates with contemporary intellectuals, E.D. Hirsch and Robert Talisse, both of whom criticized Dewey’s ideas long after the American philosopher’s death and, finally, to two recent debates, one on home schooling and the other on U.S. foreign policy, in which Dewey’s ideas offer a unique and compelling vision of a way forward.

Book Critical Theory of Coloniality

Download or read book Critical Theory of Coloniality written by Paulo Henrique Martins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reveals how the critique of the domination of capitalism inaugurated by the Frankfurt School becomes pluriversal, motivating the historical Critical Theory of Coloniality (CTC) dialogue between the Global South and the Global North. CTC expresses the emergence and historical actuality of a set of intellectual fields aimed at denouncing domination and promoting emancipatory ideas at the borders of colonial capitalism. The book argues that the actuality of the CTC relies on the importance of valuing theoretical and methodological pluralism in the context of the necessary redefinition of the directions of global society. It reveals a plural reflection of scientific, moral, and aesthetic character in different areas of former planetary colonisation such as Asia, Africa, and America but also on the borders of Europe. This book is aimed at researchers and students in the social sciences as well as in interdisciplinary studies. It is attractive to those who are interested in the plural development of theoretical criticism outside the European universe and who seek to understand how capitalist power has metamorphosed with planetary coloniality. Considering this book implies important reflections on topics such as development, modernity, tradition, imperialism, dependency, and democracy, it is interesting to specialists in development issues, international relations, and policymakers.

Download or read book Mining Memory written by Mary Beth Tierney-Tello and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-23 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every major Peruvian author of the twentieth century has written a narrative focused on childhood or coming of age. Mining Memory argues that Peruvian narratives of the twentieth century re-imagine childhood not only to document personal pasts, but also to focus on national identity as a dynamic and incomplete process. Mining Memory shows how 20th-century narratives and films reimagine the self and the nation by representing child and adolescent protagonists and their evolution, using the remembrance of childhood as part of a nation-making project. The book demonstrates how, in the context of Peru, fictions focusing on childhood become vehicles for the national reimagining and collective remembering central to much of Latin American literature. The figure of the child, as emblem of both a collective memory and an always deferred utopian project, holds special promise for twentieth-century Peruvian writers as they write from a national context rife with cultural, racial and political conflict. The book intervenes in debates internal to Peruvian cultural studies as well as wider conversations in Latin American Studies and post-colonial studies. Mining Memory provides a new understanding to both the Latin American and Anglo-American traditions regarding the representations of national subjectivities through the voices of the child and adolescent. Such a representational strategy performs a very particular kind of hybridity and temporal balancing act capable of addressing the very issues of cultural memory and fractured identities so relevant to multi-cultural, post-colonial cultural contexts.

Book Handbook of Central American Governance

Download or read book Handbook of Central American Governance written by Diego Sanchez-Ancochea and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central America constitutes a fascinating case study of the challenges, opportunities and characteristics of the process of transformation in today’s global economy. Comprised of a politically diverse range of societies, this region has long been of interest to students of economic development and political change. The Handbook of Central American Governance aims to describe and explain the manifold processes that are taking place in Central America that are altering patterns of social, political and economic governance, with particular focus on the impact of globalization and democratization. Containing sections on topics such as state and democracy, key political and social actors, inequality and social policy and international relations, in addition to in-depth studies on five key countries (Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala), this text is composed of contributions from some of the leading scholars in the field. No other single volume studies the current characteristics of the region from a political, economic and social perspective or reviews recent research in such detail. As such, this handbook is of value to academics, students and researchers as well as to policy-makers and those with an interest in governance and political processes.

  • Pages : 221 pages

Download or read book Studying the State written by Esteban Nicholls and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studying the State explores the results of governments in the Global South, particularly in Latin America, turning to the state as a vehicle for mobilizing people, resources and political change. The book evaluates the results of this return to the state by looking at recent historical events to analyse the outcomes, processes, successes and failures of these projects. It also explores the role of China in affecting the margins of manoeuvrability of states, especially Latin American states. Finally, the book considers various perspectives on the theory of the state, contributing to theoretical approaches in the social sciences but in a way that is always grounded in their utility for addressing real-world problems. Contributing to theoretical understandings of the state through grounded case studies, Studying the State will be of great interest to scholars of Latin America, the Global South and neoliberalism and the state. This book was originally published as a special issue in Third World Thematics.
