Book Synopsis The Role of History in Latin American Philosophy by : Arleen Salles
Download or read book The Role of History in Latin American Philosophy written by Arleen Salles and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings the history of Latin American philosophy to an English-speaking audience through the prominent voices of Mauricio Beuchot, Horacio Cerutti-Guldberg, María Luisa Femenías, Jorge J. E. Gracia, Oscar R. Martí, León Olivé, Carlos Pereda, and Eduardo Rabossi. They argue that Spanish is not a philosophically irrelevant language and that there are original positions to be found in the work of Latin American philosophers. Part I of the book looks at why the history of philosophy has not developed in Latin America. A range of theoretical issues are explored, each focusing on specific problems that have hindered the development of a solid history. Part II details the complex task of writing a history of philosophy for a region still haunted by the specter of colonialism.
Book Synopsis Multiculturalismo y pluralismo by : León Olivé
Download or read book Multiculturalismo y pluralismo written by León Olivé and published by Paidos Mexicana Editorial. This book was released on 1999 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La globalizacion no ha eliminado la diversidad cultural, pero podria conseguirlo, a menos que deje de entenderse como la imposicion de una idea occidentalizada del mundo y en vez de eso se interprete como la organizacion de una sociedad planetaria donde participen las diversas culturas del mundo ejerciendo su derecho a preservarse y florecer; donde cada cultura enriquezca a la sociedad global y al mismo tiempo se beneficie del intercambio y de la cooperacion con las demas. En la mayoria de los paises latinoamericanos se presenta en el ambito interno una situacion analoga a la mundial, debido al historico menosprecio por la identidad colectiva de los pueblos indios que conviven con culturas mestizas en un mismo territorio. En este libro se sugiere reconocer dicho multiculturalismo, tanto en el ambito global como en el nacional, y establecer bases solidas para que miembros de culturas diferentes se comuniquen, se comprendan y colaboren para alcanzar metas establecidas de comun acuerdo segun unosprincipios basicos de convivencia. Para contribuir a la defensa del derecho de las culturas a la diferencia y a la participacion activa en la vida politica, economica y cultural de la nacion o la sociedad global, Olive propone un modelo de multiculturalismo B -- alejado de los extremos absolutistas y de las tendencias perjudiciales del relativismoB -- que concibe desde una perspectiva pluralista el conocimiento y la moral.
Book Synopsis Diversity in the City by : Marco Martiniello
Download or read book Diversity in the City written by Marco Martiniello and published by Universidad de Deusto. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seems the world is becoming increasingly uniform culturally. To a certain degree, this observation is correct in the sense that a global mass culture is certainly being disseminated an sold all over the plane. But the world is at the same time increasingly diversified in terms of ethno-cultura identities. The tension between the trend toward cultural uniformity and the trend toward differentiation of identities is well captured by observing the evolution of social dynamics in cities. Most medium-sized and large European cities are today increasingly fragmented socially, economically and ethnically. Some of them are even becoming socially, ethnically an racially ghettoised. But at the same time, European cities remain places where intergroup encounters con develop and where cultural production takes place. The cities are the crossroads between the local and the global. The first aim of this book is to discuss the changes affecting the city and the role played by cultural diversity and ethno-national identities in those changes. The second aim is to examine some crucial issues and aspects of the current process of cultural diversification of cities and its impact on urban socio-economic, political and cultural activities.

Book Synopsis Transformative Intercultural Global Education by : Barreto, Isabel María Gómez
Download or read book Transformative Intercultural Global Education written by Barreto, Isabel María Gómez and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-05-13 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this tumultuous world, characterized by unprecedented migratory movements, societal evolution intersects with an increasing diversity that presents profound challenges. The global landscape is marked by 33 armed conflicts in 2022 alone, resulting in forced displacement and an exceeding count of 100 million displaced individuals worldwide. The traditional understanding of migration as a response to individualized prosecution has expanded to encompass "survival migration," incorporating environmental change and livelihood collapse. This paradigm shift necessitates a reevaluation of human rights and a compelling call for transformative global and intercultural education to address the vulnerabilities, inequities, and discrimination faced by displaced and native youth. Transformative Intercultural Global Education is a project aimed at shedding light on educational inequalities stemming from race, migration, forced displacement, and cultural factors. Through innovative empirical results, theoretical frameworks, and educational practices, this book seeks to contribute to quality education and, subsequently, a more sustainable society. The objective is to provide educators with proposals that strengthen educational policies and programs aligned with global citizenship, fostering sensitivity, critical thinking, and commitment towards respectful and tolerant coexistence. The research outcomes are designed to encourage actions that promote equity, social justice, and the sustainable development of a global society.
Book Synopsis The Making of Indigeneity, Curriculum History, and the Limits of Diversity by : Ligia (Licho) López López
Download or read book The Making of Indigeneity, Curriculum History, and the Limits of Diversity written by Ligia (Licho) López López and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conceptually rich and grounded in cutting-edge research, this book addresses the often-overlooked roles and implications of diversity and indigeneity in curriculum. Taking a multidisciplinary approach to the development of teacher education in Guatemala, López provides a historical and transnational understanding of how "indigenous" has been negotiated as a subject/object of scientific inquiry in education. Moving beyond the generally accepted "common sense" markers of diversity such as race, gender, and ethnicity, López focuses on the often-ignored histories behind the development of these markers, and the crucial implications these histories have in education – in Guatemala and beyond – today.
Download or read book Hacerse cargo written by Manuel Cruz and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-11-15 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uno de los pilares sobre los que se sostiene la visión del mundo hegemónica en la actualidad es el de la importancia fundamental atribuida a los individuos, entendidos como seres libres y soberanos, y, en consecuencia, responsables. Sin embargo, no está claro que semejante defensa de la libre responsabilidad sea la actitud realmente más extendida en nuestra sociedad, en la que lo que parece generalizado en creciente medida es la sistemática búsqueda de argumentos exculpatorios que minimicen la aceptación de responsabilidad por parte de los individuos (el ambiente familiar, el contexto económico, la inestabilidad emocional...). Desde el punto de vista teórico, estaríamos ante una paradoja. De tanto exculpar al individuo a base de responsabilizar a las estructuras, hemos terminado por convertirle en el eslabón más débil de la cadena. La misma modernidad que en un principio pretendía hacer descansar el sentido del mundo sobre el ser humano, convirtiéndolo en la nueva clave para justificar lo real, al final ha terminado por considerarlo un elemento incapaz de sostener nada ni hacerse cargo de acción alguna a poco que ésta tenga consecuencias negativas.
Book Synopsis The State of the Field by : David Kilpatrick
Download or read book The State of the Field written by David Kilpatrick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of association football has recently emerged as vibrant field of inquiry, attracting scholars worldwide from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds. "Soccer As the Beautiful Game: Football’s Artistry, Identity and Politics," held at Hofstra University in April 2014, gathered together scholars, media, management, and fans in the largest ever conference dedicated to the game in North America. This collection of essays provides a comprehensive view of the academic perspectives on offer at the conference, itself a snapshot of the state of this increasingly rich scholarly terrain. The diversity of approaches range from theory to pedagogy to historical and sociological engagements with the game at all levels, from the grassroots to the grand spectacle of the World Cup, while the international roster of authors is testimony to the game’s global reach. This collection of essays therefore offers a state of the field for soccer studies and a road map for further exploration. The chapters originally published as a special issue in Soccer & Society.

Book Synopsis Challenges for Human Rights by : Fernando Falcón y Tella
Download or read book Challenges for Human Rights written by Fernando Falcón y Tella and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays we are fortunate enough to be experiencing a boom in human rights - an enormous increase of their importance in the international sphere at all levels (political, economic, social, legal and moral). For the first time the condition of the individual as "citizen," and not just as "subject," has gained importance. Individuals, and not only states, have now become the subjects of international law, as a result of the boom in humanitarian law and international criminal law. However, although there have been many battles won and goals met concerning human rights, the war against injustice continues and the fight has not ended. It is necessary to stay alert and to avoid a potentially paralyzing self-complacency. This collection focusses on topics that are particularly relevant for the present era. It examines issues such as multiculturalism, globalization, international criminal justice (specifically third and fourth generation rights) and, within this thematic framework, the problems that have come about as a result of the expanding reach of the Internet and of new biomedical advances. In addition, it explores the increasingly urgent challenge of how to respond to international terrorism, in view of worldwide events since September 11, 2001, and its resulting aftermath. Originally published in Spanish, this thought-provoking collection will be of interest to human rights scholars and practitioners alike.

Book Synopsis Global Perspectives on the Politics of Multiculturalism in the 21st Century by : Fethi Mansouri
Download or read book Global Perspectives on the Politics of Multiculturalism in the 21st Century written by Fethi Mansouri and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiculturalism is now seen by many of its critics as the source of intercultural and social tensions, fostering communal segregation and social conflicts. While the cultural diversity of contemporary societies has to be acknowledged as an empirical and demographic fact, whether multiculturalism as a policy offers an optimal conduit for intercultural understanding and social harmony has become increasingly a matter of polarised public debate. This book examines the contested philosophical foundations of multiculturalism and its, often controversial, applications in the context of migrant societies. It also explores the current theoretical debates about the extent to which multiculturalism, and related conceptual constructs, can account for the various ethical challenges and policy dilemmas surrounding the management of cultural diversity in our contemporary societies. The authors consider common conceptual and empirical features from a transnational perspective through analysis of the case studies of Australia, Canada, Columbia, Germany, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and Uruguay. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of political science, comparative politics, international studies, multiculturalism, migration and political sociology.

Book Synopsis Discriminatory Bullying by : Esoh Elamé
Download or read book Discriminatory Bullying written by Esoh Elamé and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-20 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is devoted to the relation between bullying at school and ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and disability. In examining the interactions between bullying and discrimination, the authors set out from the premise that the current practice of intercultural education does not systematically address the issue of bullying, as evidenced by the lack, within schools, of intercultural education projects. The starting point for the work is a survey conducted in ten European countries on a sample of about 9,000 students including immigrants and natives. The research provides important information on which factors deserve special attention when formulating interventions in the classroom with the aim of preventing or combating discriminatory bullying. If intercultural education is called upon to handle the fight against any form of discrimination, it cannot shirk from addressing the issue of bullying discrimination. The results represent a sound, stimulating basis for broad and realistic reflections on discriminatory bullying and intercultural education, and show that intercultural pedagogy needs to be appropriately equipped theoretically. This book will be an indispensable tool for those seeking a thorough understanding of the new challenges facing intercultural education and the means of overcoming them. On that basis, innovative education practices should be developed with the aim of spreading a culture of non-violence and intercultural dialogue.
Book Synopsis Citizenship After Orientalism by : Engin Isin
Download or read book Citizenship After Orientalism written by Engin Isin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-14 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers a postcolonial critique of the ostensible superiority or originality of ‘Western’ political theory and one of its fundamental concepts, ‘citizenship’. The chapters analyse the undoing, uncovering, and reinventing of citizenship as a way of investigating citizenship as political subjectivity. If it has now become very difficult to imagine citizenship merely as nationality or membership in the nation-state, this is at least in part because of the anticolonial struggles and the project of reimagining citizenship after orientalism that they precipitated. If it has become difficult to sustain the orientalist assumption, the question arises; how do we investigate citizenship as political subjectivity after orientalism? This book was originally published as a special issue of Citizenship Studies.
Book Synopsis Decolonizing Constitutionalism by : Boaventura de Sousa Santos
Download or read book Decolonizing Constitutionalism written by Boaventura de Sousa Santos and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-31 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern state, law, and constitution result from a legal canon that (re)produces the abyssal lines dividing the world that is validated from the world whose humanity and epistemological validity are denied. This book aims to contribute to a post-abyssal reflection on law and constitutionalism by considering the structural axes of power that are constitutive of modern law “capitalism, colonialism, and heteropatriarchy” alongside the legal plurality of the world. Is it possible to decolonize, decommodify, and depatriarchalize the constitution? The authors speak from multiple geographies, raise different questions, resort to differentiated theoretical approaches, and reveal varying levels of optimism about the possibilities of transforming constitutions. The readers are confronted with critical perspectives on the Eurocentric legal canon, as well as with the recognition of anti-capitalist, anti-colonial, and anti-patriarchal legal experiences. The horizon of this publication is the expansion of the possibilities of legal and political imagination.
