Diálogos. Taylor Charles y Bernstein Richard con Daniel Gamper by Charles Taylor,Richard Bernstein,Daniel Gamper Pdf

Frente a un mundo en el que imperan los mensajes cortos, la inmediatez y la necesidad de crear sensaciones, la filosofía reivindica meditar sin prisas y pone en tela de juicio los lugares comunes. Como actividad libre, su objetivo no es la persecución del poder, sino la verdad entendida como la línea de meta que nunca se cruza pero que ha de guiar nuestro debate y reflexión. Este atractivo diálogo trata sobre la actualidad de la filosofía y sobre el modo en que las preguntas permanecen a pesar de que cada época las da por canceladas. La filosofía orientada al ámbito de lo público y lo común, nos recuerdan Charles Taylor y Richard Bernstein, nos ofrece un contrapunto en el sistema democrático (ayudándonos así a evitar cierres en falso) y una herramienta para aproximarnos a un horizonte de justicia. Este horizonte como promesa debe articularse en un contexto de diversidad ideológica, étnica, cultural y religiosa, donde el pluralismo de los valores elimine los peajes culturales para acceder a la ciudadanía y no recluya las identidades en compartimentos estancos, sino que promueva la reciprocidad, el reconocimiento y la vitalidad social.

Democracy Against the State by Miguel Abensour Pdf

In the "Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right,” the young Marx elliptically alludes to a "true democracy" whose advent would go hand in hand with the disappearance of the state. Miguel Abensour’s rigorous interpretation of this seminal text reveals an “unknown Marx” who undermines the identification of democracy with the state and defends a historically occluded form of politics. True democracy does not entail the political and economic power of the state, but it does not dream of a post-political society either. On the contrary, the battle of democracy is waged by a demos that invents a public sphere of permanent struggles, a politics that counters political bureaucracy and representation. Democracy is "won" by a people forewarned that any dissolution of the political realm in its independence, any subordination to the state, is tantamount to annihilating the site for gaining and regaining a genuinely human existence. In this explicitly heterodox reading of Marx, Miguel Abensour proposes a theory of "insurgent" democracy that makes political liberty synonymous with a living critique of domination.

Black Brands by Fernando Olivares Pdf

Who manufactures cereal for Kellogg’s? Why are the Mercedes Smart and the Renault Twingo almost identical? Do Danone and Nestlé really manufacture everything they make us believe they manufacture? Is Zara an opaque or a transparent brand? Why do some companies claim “we do not manufacture for other brands” when yet they hide from us the fact that sometimes “other brands manufacture for them”? The number of companies outsourcing the whole of their production for their brands in an opaque manner is constantly increasing while they disregard the legitimate need for information and communication of the general public and consumers. Paradoxically, in this age of transparency opacity is ever growing among well-known brands in every industrial sector. Black Brands (in the Age of Transparency) is an extraordinary piece of work on truths and lies, on transparency and opacity of leading companies and brands in our age. The book is full of relevant cases never discussed before in sectors such as consumer products, baby foods, fashion, vehicles and mobile phones. Insightful and incisive, Fernando Olivares has directed his team to produce this book that will educate us as citizens and consumers. Their goal is to promote honest transparency –the only way to attain corporate legitimacy and sustainability in our time.

Cardenio between Cervantes and Shakespeare by Roger Chartier Pdf

How should we read a text that does not exist, or present a playthe manuscript of which is lost and the identity of whose authorcannot be established for certain? Such is the enigma posed by Cardenio – a playperformed in England for the first time in 1612 or 1613 andattributed forty years later to Shakespeare (and Fletcher). Itsplot is that of a ‘novella’ inserted into Don Quixote,a work that circulated throughout the major countries of Europe,where it was translated and adapted for the theatre. In England,Cervantes’ novel was known and cited even before it wastranslated in 1612 and had inspired Cardenio. But there is more at stake in this enigma. This was a time when,thanks mainly to the invention of the printing press, there was aproliferation of discourses. There was often a reaction when it wasfeared that this proliferation would become excessive, and manywritings were weeded out. Not all were destined to survive, inparticular plays for the theatre, which, in many cases, were neverpublished. This genre, situated at the bottom of the literaryhierarchy, was well suited to the existence of ephemeral works.However, if an author became famous, the desire for an archive ofhis works prompted the invention of textual relics, the restorationof remainders ruined by the passing of time or, in order to fill inthe gaps, in some cases, even the fabrication of forgeries. Suchwas the fate of Cardenio in the eighteenth century. Retracing the history of this play therefore leads one to wonderabout the status, in the past, of works today judged to becanonical. In this book the reader will rediscover the malleabilityof texts, transformed as they were by translations and adaptations,their migrations from one genre to another, and their changingmeanings constructed by their various publics. Thanks to RogerChartier’s forensic skills, fresh light is cast upon themystery of a play lacking a text but not an author.

The Migration of Constitutional Ideas by Sujit Choudhry Pdf

The migration of constitutional ideas across jurisdictions is one of the central features of contemporary constitutional practice. The increasing use of comparative jurisprudence in interpreting constitutions is one example of this. In this 2007 book, leading figures in the study of comparative constitutionalism and comparative constitutional politics from North America, Europe and Australia discuss the dynamic processes whereby constitutional systems influence each other. They explore basic methodological questions which have thus far received little attention, and examine the complex relationship between national and supranational constitutionalism - an issue of considerable contemporary interest in Europe. The migration of constitutional ideas is discussed from a variety of methodological perspectives - comparative law, comparative politics, and cultural studies of law - and contributors draw on case-studies from a wide variety of jurisdictions: Australia, Hungary, India, South Africa, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada.

Conceptualizing and Innovating Education and Work with Networked Learning by Nina Bonderup Dohn,Jens Jørgen Hansen,Stig Børsen Hansen,Thomas Ryberg,Maarten de Laat Pdf

The chapters in this book build upon selected research papers from the 12th International Networked Learning Conference 2020, hosted by University of Southern Denmark, Kolding. The selected chapters were chosen as cutting-edge research on networked learning which reflected focal discussion points during the conference such as: new demands on teachers in online and hybrid learning environments; organization of professional learning to meet and reflect on these demands; support of educators and students’ digital literacy; the interaction of human and technological agents in networked learning; and the development of new of networked learning designs to critically and creatively make use of technological possibilities. The book is organized into three main sections: 1) Professional learning, 2) Learning networks’ development and use of digital resources, and 3) Innovating Networked Learning. Preceding the three main sections is a first chapter, which presents a discourse analysis of how the term “networked learning” has been used in the papers at previous Networked Learning Conferences. The concluding chapter draws out perspectives from the chapters and point to emerging issues within the field of networked learning.

Hearing Impairment and Disability by Ariel Tenenbaum,Joav Merrick,Mohd N. Zakaria Pdf

"Much research has been conducted to provide researchers and hearing healthcare professionals with updated information in regard to hearing assessments, results interpretation and case management. This ongoing research is particularly imperative to guide clinicians with optimized methods in assessing and managing pediatric patients with hearing impairment and disability. As such, tremendous research efforts have been made in determining the most optimum methods in assessing hearing using both subjective and objective tests. Since hearing loss can occur due to disrupted peripheral and/or central auditory pathway, there is also a growing interest to study children with auditory processing disorder (APD). Even though notable achievements have been observed in understanding APD, more research is required, particularly in establishing a gold standard APD test and its specific interventions. Aditionally, having an objective test such as speech-evoked auditory brainstem response is beneficial to understand how speech sounds are encoded within the brainstem region in hearing-impaired children, as well as in those with compromised neural function. In this book, we have gathered research from Malaysia and India in this field and hope it will be of interest to our readers"--
