Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. La Guerra en Ucrania ha supuesto un cambio de paradigma en la politica de seguridad y defensa de la UE. Ha pasado de ser un tabu en el proceso de integracion europea a ocupar un lugar central en la agenda comunitaria. Tal revitalizacion venia produciendose de manera progresiva desde la Estrategia Global para la Politica Exterior y de Seguridad de 2016. Sin embargo, el contexto belico transforma la dimension del proceso. Paradojicamente, nos obliga a dotarnos de capacidades de seguridad y defensa nunca antes previstas, pero nos hace mas dependientes y menos autonomos en nuestra capacidad de decision. Este libro analizara criticamente el desafio que supone, asi como los nuevos instrumentos de que se dota la UE en esta materia. La guerra obliga a la UE a reinventarse como actor geopolitico y de seguridad, en lugar de actuar solo como un actor normativo y tecnocratico. This monograph explores the current state of the European Common Security and Defense Policy (CSDP) in the context of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Dr. Jose Luis de Castro argues, with precision and clarity, that the Ukraine crisis has both quantitatively and qualitatively transformed the CSDP while, paradoxically, reducing its strategic autonomy. He convincingly posits the hypothesis that effective security on the European continent will only be guaranteed with Russia's participation. --Andreu Olesti Rayo, Professor of Public International Law and International Relations, Universitat de Barcelona This work is a complete, original, and innovative analysis of the Ukraine war. It is an important contribution to the studies on security and defense in Europe. The author convincingly explains how increasing the military capabilities of the European Union will not make it a more autonomous actor in the international context, because it is key to build an inclusive European security order with Russia. --Maria Sagrario Moran, Professor of Public International Law and International Relations, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos La Guerra en Ucrania ha supuesto un cambio de paradigma en la politica de seguridad y defensa de la UE.El texto analiza el estado actual de esta politica en esta nueva coyuntura.La guerra obliga a la UE a reinventarse como actor geopolitico y de seguridad, en lugar de actuar solo como un actor normativo y tecnocratico.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. La literatura ha mostrado siempre una especial sensibilidad a la relacion de los seres humanos con la naturaleza. En el contexto actual de crisis climatica y energetica, se han multiplicado las obras literarias que tratan la crisis ecologica desde distintas perspectivas. En el caso concreto de la literatura escrita en espanol, el tema rural y la tension entre la posesion y la desposesion de la tierra ha sido un tema recurrente que vuelve a recuperarse en nuestros dias. Tambien la preocupacion medioambiental empieza a tener un mayor protagonismo en los diversos generos literarios. La perspectiva femenina sobre todas estas tematicas resulta ademas especialmente interesante, ya que historicamente la voz de la mujer apenas ha sido tenida en cuenta. En este libro se rastrea la obra de algunas escritoras contemporaneas en lengua espanola que plantean en sus obras literarias visiones de la vida alternativas a la exclusivamente antropocentrica. Se reunen titulos que aunan el mundo humano y el mundo natural y que muestran como la humanidad esta vinculada con el mundo fisico, como ambos son afectados mutuamente y como esto debe replantear nuestra relacion con el medioambiente. En este libro se rastrea la obra de escritoras contemporaneas en lengua espanola que plantean visiones de la vida alternativas a la exclusivamente antropocentrica.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Este ensayo trata de profundizar en la presencia de la mujer en diferentes manifestaciones artisticas (literatura y cine, fundamentalmente) durante los siglos XX y XXI desde una perspectiva transatlantica, para valorar en que medida la evolucion sobre los roles de genero transmitidos por la literatura y el cine dan cuenta de los procesos de cambio social respecto a la mujer contemporanea. El proyecto ha contribuido asi a empezar a elaborar una cartografia de la imagen de la mujer de los siglos XX y XXI en la literatura y el cine del ambito hispanico y avanzar, por tanto, en la recuperacion de las voces artisticas de mujeres contemporaneas. Despues de seleccionar un corpus de cincuenta obras literarias escritas en los siglos XX y XXI que tienen como protagonista a un personaje femenino o consideran a la mujer como eje tematico principal, se han estudiado los diferentes modelos femeninos presentes en diez obras literarias y sus adaptaciones audiovisuales, junto con los criterios que determinan la presencia de dichos modelos. Este ensayo reflexiona sobre si las adaptaciones de obras literarias contemporaneas del mundo hispanico a formatos audiovisuales en el presente siglo reactualizan algunos roles de la mujer en la sociedad actual e integran puntos de vista que refuerzan la perspectiva de genero que se esta poniendo de manifiesto en las dos ultimas decadas.

En esta investigacion se toman como objeto de estudio determinadas estructurassintacticas propias del espanol coloquial que aparecen en intervenciones reactivas y ocupan el mismo hueco funcional que los operadores modales de negacion del espanol. Desde un punto de vista estructural, estas expresiones se originan a partir de oraciones completas (estamos locos?, anda ya.) y a partir de sintagmas de distinto tipo que, en contextos reactivos, conforman enunciados independientes (ni de cona, un carajo.).A pesar de que el contenido que portan estas unidades es fundamentalmente modal, tambien actuan en otros planos de la macroestructura textual, relacionados con el compromiso enunciativo del hablante o con su intencionalidad en cuanto al interlocutor, teniendo en consideracion sus implicaciones argumentativas e informativas. Con el objetivo de realizar un analisis que de cuenta de su multidimensionalidad, partimos de los presupuestos teoricos de la Macrosintaxis, desarrollada desde la Lingueistica Pragmatica.Esta investigacion nos permite observar la lengua viva y documentar como esta se enriquece debido a la creatividad de los hablantes, en funcion de sus necesidades expresivas.

Europa y Francia desempenan un papel clave en los debates alrededor de las cuestiones transnacionales y los conceptos de diversidad, cooperacion y excepcion culturales, asi como en el desarrollo de politicas que apuntan a preservarlas frente al mercado. 15 anos despues de la adopcion por la UNESCO de la Convencion sobre la Proteccion y Promocion de la Diversidad de las Expresiones Culturales (2005), dichos conceptos parecen en crisis, cuando la produccion y la difusion de las obras literarias y cinematograficas parecen probar lo contrario. Este libro propone un balance e inventario del concepto de diversidad, enfatizando la estetica y los generos de la diversidad cultural y analizando las condiciones materiales de produccion y circulacion de las obras de la literatura y del cine de America Latina a traves del Atlantico. 15 anos despues de la adopcion por la UNESCO de la Convencion sobre la Proteccion y Promocion de la Diversidad de las Expresiones Culturales, algunos estudios apuntan a la fragilidad de la diversidad cultural, cuando la vitalidad de la creacion indica lo contrario.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Que perdura de la poesia de Neruda en el siglo XXI? Concebido como un homenaje a Pablo Neruda a cincuenta anos desde su muerte y a ciento veinte desde su nacimiento, este libro se propone desmalezar el camino hacia una lectura actualizada de su poesia, estudiando su recepcion en las culturas del espacio socialista europeo durante la Guerra Fria. Los quince articulos aqui reunidos presentan la construccion de la fama de Neruda en la Union Sovietica, el Bloque del Este y Yugoslavia y ponen de manifiesto la contribucion de los traductores y actores culturales de estos paises en la mundializacion de la obra nerudiana. Desde las perspectivas ofrecidas por tantos campos culturales particulares, se indagan las deformaciones y tergiversaciones de una ilustre figura literaria del siglo XX, efectuadas principalmente en nombre de las ideologias, pero tambien en funcion de las fluctuaciones del gusto y del discurso sobre el valor literario. El estudio de la recepcion de Pablo Neruda en quince ambitos culturales socialistas europeos durante la Guerra Fria representa un acercamiento inedito a su poesia y una contribucion a los debates acerca de la construccion de la fama literaria, sujeta a las interferencias con las ideologias del momento y con las reconfiguraciones del campo cultural.

A traves de los testimonios autoficcionales que Denise Affonco, Chantal Ang, Chansocthoni Delange-Hean, Claire Ly y Meas Pech-Metral legan en la seleccion de novelas aqui abordadas reflexionaremos en torno a cuestiones literarias como la autoficcion y el compromiso, historicas a traves de la expresion de la experiencia vivida y personales centrandonos en la resiliencia como elemento de resistencia. Se trata, por consiguiente, de pensar la literatura en clave de mujer como fuente de innovacion social en la que, por medio de la estetica y los recursos literarios, se traducen cuestiones historicas, sociologicas, ontologicas e incluso filosoficas. El presente monografico supone un acercamiento a la experiencia bioliteraria de cinco autoras que, supervivientes del regimen de los Jemeres rojos, se instalan en Francia y adoptan el frances como vehiculo de expresion literaria para trasladar los hitos que marcaron su experiencia vital durante esos anos.

Los moralistas de la epoca solian mirarla con recelo, por la autonomia de que gozaba, haciendola objeto de adoctrinamiento y castigo. Cuantas enviudaban lograban, si, sustraerse al yugo del control masculino, pero, a la vez, perdian con su conyuge tanto una guia etica como el sustento economico, viendo peligrar asi su buena conducta, y hasta su misma supervivencia. Por su comportamiento lujurioso, las actividades ilicitas o inmorales que practicaban para subsistir, la invasion -en ausencia del cabeza de familia- de ambitos profesionales reservados a los hombres, las viudas se percibian como mujeres descontroladas que cabia temer, vigilar y neutralizar. Se analizan aqui estos y otros temas, cuales las estrategias politico-culturales que las viudas de las altas esferas adoptaron en la gestion del poder, sin olvidar, por supuesto, el mundo de las artes y de la ficcion literaria.

Innovation anthropologistDominique Desjeux offers an unexpected solution to this oft-revisited enigma.In the year 70, the Temple of Jerusalem was destroyed. The Jews were in danger ofdisappearing, even though they represented nearly 8% of the empire's population. Tosurvive, the Jews had to make a strategic choice between several controversies: theresurrection of the dead, proselytism, the application of circumcision and dietaryprohibitions.One school of thought proposed refocusing on the purity of rules. This later gave riseto Rabbinical Judaism. Another Jewish current favored globalization. It proposed areligious product that was easier to disseminate. It did away with circumcision andkashrut, included eternal life, which reassured against the uncertainties of the future,and baptism, which simplified the rituals of purification. This current was excludedfrom synagogues. A few centuries later, it gave rise to Christianity. Any resemblanceto todays innovations and crises is not accidental. 2,000 years ago, Judaism was becoming an attractive product in the market of Mediterraneanreligions.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Sacred words often provide succor, summoned to comfort individual victims and entire communities ravaged by acts of violence. History also demonstrates, however, that religious discourse, like rhetoric itself, functions as a pharmakonboth a remedy and a poison. Religious discourse evoked to incite or justify violence functions as a kind of rancor or intense partisan anger that distorts reality, exacerbates harm, and eschews the accountability of its perpetrators. Moreover, a third function of religious rhetoric synthesizes sacred succor and rancor to express the productive tension of righteous indignation employed by speakers to decry violence and demand social justice.This compendium of both historic and contemporary speeches on the intersecting themes of religion, rhetoric, and violence endeavors to complicate the rhetoric/violence binary by interpolating religion (another foundational and cultural belief inextricably entangled with both rhetoric and violence) into the dialectic. Rhetorical artifacts, including religious speeches by Sojourner Truth, Joseph Biden, Harvey Milk, Tony Kushner, Pope Francis, Barak Obama, Julius Streicher, Josef Schuster, and Jefferson Sessions are analyzed, from rhetorical approaches, as responses to policies, laws and historic events with their basis in sacred and rancorous religion rhetoric.

This book explores the margins of journalism: the peripheral journalists and media organisations who have been overlooked in our efforts to understand a changing journalistic field. Seeing local journalists as unmapped agents of the journalistic field, this book provides a comprehensive study of local journalism in the post-socialist, post-transitional Czech media system, and conceptualises these actors as unique agents within the journalistic field. Informed by Pierre Bourdieus field theory, it adopts an inductive approach, presenting the stories of specific journalists derived from interviews and participant observation in the places where they work, alongside surveys of local newspapers. From these studies, this book systematically maps these peripheral, journalistic actors and their positions in the journalistic field, accounting for their relationships and the trends shaping Czech journalism to give voice to those who are not usually heard journalists on the margins. " a fine-grained examination into the struggles and successes of local newspaper journalists adjusting to a digital era. It demonstrates how shining a light on their unique - often underexplored - practices can provide broader learnings for the future of journalism." Professor Kristy Hess, Deakin University, Australia. "This rich and insightful contribution directs our attention to the important but often under researched margins of journalism, and as such it contributes to a wider understanding of what it means to be a journalist." Professor Agnes Gulyas, Canterbury Christ Church University, UK. This book explores local journalists in the Czech Republic as unmapped agents of the journalistic field. It is a case study of a local journalists and local newspapers in the post-socialist Czech media system. It uses Bourdieus field theory, interviews, participant observation, and survey data to map the journalistic field for journalism studies.

As such, they are rarely considered when critiquing collective behavior or symbolic re-presentations. However, as the founder of depth psychology a field of study that considers how unconscious components of the human experience influence psychological conditions Freud understood the collective nature of thought and behavior. While his ideas are not typically a perspective applied to the study of media and popular culture, of audiences, or of content creation, once unpacked through a psychoanalytic lens, Freuds theories shine a bright light on human motivation and expression.This book is the first presentation of his ideas within this context. It is primarily an introduction to Freud and his theories intended for a communication studies audience. In addition to summarizing Freuds major concepts, how/when/if they are taught in psychology programs, and the resultant "Freud Wars," this book offers examples of application of his ideas to cinema, advertising, public relations, and other forms of expression and recommendations for future research.There are implications and applications to the everyday world as well for anyone interested in how theories of human development, beginning with childhood personality construction through adult sexuality, repression, and expression, can be understood through a contemporary lens."Of all of the contentious and oft-misconstrued figures in the history of ideas, few provide such a thorny and frustrating subject as Sigmund Freud. In this short-butsubstantial book, Deb Merskin gives us a considerate and approachable understanding of Freuds work. She begins with a biographical sketch of Freud, builds on this foundation to outline the full spectrum of Freuds theoretical interventions. With the basic rhythms and motifs established, Merskin then combines all of these elements to develop a symphonic sense of what Freuds ideas can contribute to communication and media studies, with emphases on social theory, film theory, advertising, political communication, media psychology, and cultural studies. Here is a true introduction to Freuds ideas as they relate to communication and media studies."David W. Park, Lake Forest College Provides an overview of Freuds psychoanalytic theories and uses them as a lens through which to view media and popular culture. The book reviews how Freuds theories have been applied to the study of film, advertising, news, and public relations, and discusses how scholars can use Freuds ideas as tools to understand contemporary experiences.

And how does the relationship between knowledge and practical knowledge affect professional vision, performance and choices of action? This book helps to explore how the working practice of social workers is expressed on that path where knowledge and practical knowledge, learnt in situations, becomes knowing how to work together, weaving together relationships among people, professions, objects, languages, technologies and institutions.The book therefore proposes new ways of combining these two aspects: how social workers construct their knowledge through everyday practices and what it means to empirically study the practical knowledge of social workers. The work practice of the social worker constitutes a unit of analysis proposed in this book for the study of this work practice, understood as situated activity. The book points to the important issue of social work as situated activity and it intends to explore the way in which the work practice of social workers is expressed.

Attacking white racism will not dislodge white supremacy, which the author contends is the greatest danger facing America. That can only be accomplished by making concurrent and significant modifications in American individualism. Yet, white supremacist thinking, feeling, and acting and American individualism are protected by what the author describes as The White Supremacist Collective Unconscious, a culturally determined mental construct that Americans assimilate as they grow into adulthood, which endows all Americans, regardless of race, with a white supremacist mental orientation to one degree or another. Drawing on his personal experiences as an African American growing up in the United States, and on his research, the author details the development and workings of that unconscious, and the impact of white supremacy on the national character.In this provocative, personal, and engaging volume, so timely in its intervention, Ronald Richardson gives us a new way of looking at ourselves, how we came to be, and the inescapable role white supremacy has played in the unfolding.Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Alphonse Fletcher University Professor, Harvard UniversityThis is a brave and candid book centered on the psychology and vexed history of race and the white ascendency in the United States. The gaze is unblinking, the analysis rigorous, and the conclusions judicious. Professor Richardson has composed a most impressive study, drawing on the provocative ideas of varied thinkersamong whom Fanon, Jung, Kierkegaard, Kakuzo Okakuraand his own experience, stretching from childhood to youth to distinguished scholar.David Mayers is Professor, History Department, Political Science Department, Boston University This book describes the devastating impact of white supremacy and its co-dependent style of individual autonomy on African Americans and on American culture and society. It reveals the hidden workings of white supremacy in the American psyche, its destructive effects in the family, and its profoundly dangerous threat to American democracy.
