Book Synopsis Political Networks and Social Movements by : Soledad Valdivia Rivera
Download or read book Political Networks and Social Movements written by Soledad Valdivia Rivera and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2019-05-10 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a landslide electoral victory in 2006, Evo Morales became the first indigenous President of Bolivia. Morales’s stunning ascent was mirrored by the rising fortunes of his political party, the leftist Movimiento al Socialismo, which today continues to challenge the status quo in Bolivian politics and implement ambitious social reforms. This study examines how the state and social movements have impacted democratization in Bolivia, along with other sectors such as NGOs and the media. Soledad Valdivia Rivera’s analysis helps us to understand how the movement's relationships have come to transform the Bolivian political process as we know it.

Download or read book Diccionario de la Democracia written by Patricio Marcos and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 826 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El Diccionario de la Democracia contiene la teoría y la ideología de los regímenes democráticos: sus antecedentes; orígenes; principios; modalidades de deliberación y leyes; sus instituciones clave y variedades, acorde con la clase social que los dirija y el arreglo institucional correlativo. Asimismo compara sus principios, leyes e instituciones con otros regímenes, particularmente con sus opuestos, las oligarquías o gobiernos de pocos, pero también con la república, la tiranía y la realeza; las razones de Estado que permiten su conquista, conservación y estabilidad; las fuentes internas y externas que los amenazan; las maneras de corromperse y las revoluciones que los afectan. Trata también de los usos, costumbres y caracteres democráticos; inventaría los rasgos éticos de la vida democrática, por sí mismos y comprobados con los de los ricos, las clases medias y los tiranos, hasta detallar las relaciones que sostienen entre sí dirigentes y dirigidos, hombres y mujeres, viejos, jóvenes, maestros y alumnos, ciudadanos y animales..., por el impacto que la libertad e igualdad popular tienen en la vida pública y privada de sus pueblos. Parte medular del mismo es la exposición de las doctrinas, dogmas, leyes e instituciones del modelo liberal moderno de la democracia; un credo que se analiza en calidad de justificación del nouveau régime por parte de sus ideólogos modernos más destacados y lúcidos, quienes desvían el significado de las palabras ] democracia ] y ] liberal ] atribuidas sin más a los Estados modernos.

Book Synopsis Influences of the IEA Civic and Citizenship Education Studies by : Barbara Malak-Minkiewicz
Download or read book Influences of the IEA Civic and Citizenship Education Studies written by Barbara Malak-Minkiewicz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-26 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book identifies the multiple ways that IEA’s studies of civic and citizenship education have contributed to national and international educational discourse, research, policymaking, and practice. The IEA International Civic and Citizenship Education Study (ICCS), first conducted in 2009, was followed by a second cycle in 2016. The project was linked to the earlier IEA Civic Education Study (CIVED 1999, 2000). IEA’s ICCS remains the only large-scale international study dedicated to formal and informal civic and citizenship education in school. It continues to make substantial contributions to understanding the nature of the acquired civic knowledge, attitudes, and participatory skills. It also discusses in-depth how a wide range of countries prepare their young people for citizenship in changing political, social, and economic circumstances. The next cycle of ICCS is planned for 2022. In this book, more than 20 national representatives and international scholars from Europe, Latin America, Asia, and North America assess how the processes and findings of the 2009 and 2016 cycles of ICCS and CIVED 1999/2000 have been used to improve nations’ understanding of their students’ civic knowledge, beliefs, attitudes, current civic-related behaviors, and intentions for future participation in a comparative context. There are also chapters summarizing the secondary analysis of those studies’ results indicating their usefulness for educational improvement and reflecting on policy issues. The analyses and reflections in this book provide timely insight into international educational discourse, policy, practice, and research in an area of education that is becoming increasingly important for many societies.

Book Synopsis Extraordinary Threat by : Justin Podur
Download or read book Extraordinary Threat written by Justin Podur and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2021-07-20 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US foreign policy decisions behind six coup attempts against the Venezuelan government – and Venezuela's heightening precarity In March 2015, President Obama initiated sanctions against Venezuela, declaring a “national emergency with respect to the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States posed by the situation in Venezuela.” Each year, the US administration has repeated this claim. But, as Joe Emersberger and Justin Podur argue in their timely book, Extraordinary Threat, the opposite is true: It is the US policy of regime change in Venezuela that constitutes an “extraordinary threat” to Venezuelans. Tens of thousands of Venezuelans continue to die because of these ever-tightening US sanctions, denying people daily food, medicine, and fuel. On top of this, Venezuela has, since 2002, been subjected to repeated coup attempts by US-backed forces. In Extraordinary Threat, Emersberger and Podur tell the story of six coup attempts against Venezuela. This book deflates the myths propagated about the Venezuelan government’s purported lack of electoral legitimacy, scant human rights, and disastrous economic development record. Contrary to accounts lobbed by the corporate media, the real target of sustained U.S. assault on Venezuela is not the country’s claimed authoritarianism or its supposed corruption. It is Chavismo, the prospect that twenty-first century socialism could be brought about through electoral and constitutional means. This is what the US empire must not allow to succeed.

Book Synopsis Governing Extractive Industries by : Anthony Bebbington
Download or read book Governing Extractive Industries written by Anthony Bebbington and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. Proposals for more effective natural resource governance emphasize the importance of institutions and governance, but say less about the political conditions under which institutional change occurs. Governing Extractive Industries synthesizes findings regarding the political drivers of institutional change in extractive industry governance. It analyses resource governance from the late nineteenth century to the present in Bolivia, Ghana, Peru, and Zambia, focusing on the ways in which resource governance and national political settlements interact. The authors focus on the ways in which resource governance and national political settlements interact, exploring the nature of elite politics, the emergence of new political actors, forms of political contention, changing ideas regarding natural resources and development, the geography of natural resource deposits, and the influence of the transnational political economy of global commodity production.

Book Synopsis The Aliens Within by : Geoffroy de Laforcade
Download or read book The Aliens Within written by Geoffroy de Laforcade and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-08-22 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discrimination, stigmatization, xenophobia, heightened securitization – fear and blaming of "aliens within" – characterize the world infected by COVID-19. Such fears have a long cultural history, however, particularly in connecting pathology with race, poverty, and migration. This volume explores theory and narratives of disease, danger, and displacement through the lenses of cultural, literary, and film studies, historical representation, ethnics studies, sociology and cultural geography, classics, music, and linguistics. Investigations range from, for example, illness discourse in the ancient classics to images of perilous intruders in the Age of Trump, from the Haitian Revolution and subsequent zombie stereotypes to current, problematic refugee resettlement in the US South and Greek islands, from the urban underworld in nineteenth-century sensation novels to ethnic women "on the stroll" in coronavirus times. The collection is organized into three thematically intertwined parts: Stigmatizing the Racialized Underclass; Pathologizing the Other; Constructing and Countering Collapse. It examines changing or recurrent aporias in tropes of belonging and exclusion, as well as the birthing of new forms of identity, agency, and countercultural expression.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Y todos eramos actores, un siglo de luz y sombra nos sumerge en una doble historia de amor, una de emotiva y humana dimension entre nuestro heroe y La Bella entre las bellas; y otra, sublime y tragica, entre un recio, varonil y enorme camion frances de 36 toneladas y un fragil y coqueto auto dorado, al mas puro y chabacano gusto narco, que sin rumbo deambulaban transportando actores y viejos decorados por los escarpados caminos de la cordillera de los Andes desde Buenos Aires, Argentina, hasta Santa Marta, Colombia.Una historia que como los amores se desarrolla entre la comedia italiana y la tragedia griega al recorrer un siglo herido mostrando la belleza de su piel y el hedor de sus heridas.Relata la epopeya de un hombre-testigo-actor-aventurero que sonriendo cruzo sin ser visto un siglo tormentoso en el que por haber visto lo que no debio ver, y saber que no lo vio todo, fue condenado a desaparecer de la historia escrita en blanco y negro, la lineal e insipida que exige tomar partido, aquella que busca reemplazar los barrotes de hierro de la celda por barrotes de deslucidos parlamentos destinados a encerrar el pensamiento y desterrar la voz discordante.Ajada historia de falsos decorados de carton piedra que quieren ocultar la realidad olvidando que en aquella epoca no habia espectadores, que todos eramos actores, olvidando que la razon de ser del actor es morir para renacer sobre otro escenario en la piel de otro personaje ocultandose asi de los inquisidores para, riendose, contrastar la belleza y el hedor de un siglo de luz y sombra. !Oh dioses, tened piedad de mi, dadme la fuerza necesaria para inmolarme y renacer en la palabra! y a vosotros, lectores, les pido que me acompanen por los espirales de vida y de muerte hasta desaparecer en el ultimo escalon de la obra cuando libres podran escoger el papel que les corresponda.La prosa traviesa, el verso herido, la imagen cinematografica, la replica insolente, el viaje, la autobiografia y la ficcion se entremezclan en Y todos eramos actores recuperando la riqueza perdida en la escritura, aquella que Enrique Vila-Matas imaginara para el futuro de la literatura y del libro, como lo dijera en la FIL de Guadalajara:"e;Pensaba que en este siglo se mezclarian la autobiografia, el diario de viajes y la ficcion. Pensaba que ibamos a una literatura mixta donde los limites se difuminarian, pensaba que la accion se difuminaria en favor del pensamiento"e;... "e;Luego las cosas se torcieron. La industria editorial esta erradicando de la literatura todo aquello que nos quiere hacer creer que es demasiado pesado o que va demasiado cargado de sentido. El panorama desde el punto de vista literario es desolador"e;.Desolador, a menos que se escoja la curva equivocada, la mas peligrosa y por ello la mas excitante y hermosa, rechazando los derroteros que la industria editorial corporativa nos quiere imponer a usted como lector y a mi como escritor, y escojamos libremente un mundo editorial en el que el yo, lector y el yo, escritor, en la diversidad, podamos amarnos.De Y todos eramos actores:Dos dias mas tarde levantamos la huelga de hambre, se habia encontrado una salida al laberinto, faltaba solamente despejar las vias para alcanzar esa salida, en Colombia nada es facil, un si es un no y en el mejor de los casos un quizas; un silencio es un grito y en ese espacio nos habian permitido desplazarnos, se regresaba a las costumbres milenarias, a las primeras civilizaciones: a los locos y los juglares se les respeta hermano, en ellos somos, en ellos permanece nuestra memoria.*Rompio las fronteras, el director no esta hablando de Colombia.*Y nosotros no estamos hablando de nuestros muertos; nuestras masacres son sus masacres, nuestros laberintos no tienen salida.El mar nuevamente me ofrecia una salida.*Entrada, entrada, no salida. Hay algunos que nunca aprenden.
Book Synopsis Argentinian Telenovelas by : Gabriela Jonas Aharoni
Download or read book Argentinian Telenovelas written by Gabriela Jonas Aharoni and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work explores the way in which telenovelas (TV serial dramas) give voice to contemporary and historical Argentinian social and political issues. Telenovelas have multiple layers of socio-cultural message -- local as well as global -- and are invariably laden with appealing drama and emotion, and sometimes comedy. The discussion focuses on how telenovelas reflect society's perception of, and adjustment toward, issues of globalisation. They are a means of portraying how individuals and families rationalize and incorporate rapid social and economic changes. The book explores how telenovelas might offer a subversive interpretation of reality; or provide a channel of dialogue with the government's political aims. The author challenges the assumption that they are merely a reflection of historical, political and social circumstance. One of the many telenovela examples addressed in this book is whether the serial Padre Coraje constructs a parallel between the current Kirchner government and that of Juan Peron, fifty years earlier. The serial explores the two leaders' relationship with the Church and implicitly presents President Kirchner as Peron's successor. Explaining telenovelas as cultural texts (they are not soap operas) provides the primary basis for this study, backed by Argentinian newspaper articles and secondary sources on Latin American history, culture and economy, as well as TV and cinema studies. The result is a more profound and nuanced interpretation than hitherto of Argentinian telenovelas. Analysis enables identification of the links between the serials' storylines and contemporary political and social events. These popular culture texts bring new meaning to the Argentinian historical narrative, and for TV viewers puts the processes and effects of economic and social globalisation on a local multi-cultural level perspective.
