La mirada de las plantas
Read moreTitle La mirada de las plantas Author Paz Soldán, Edmundo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764952 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 264 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In this novel, the extractive past and present of the Amazon are intertwined within the framework of a disturbing and lysergic environment. Fleeing from scandal, the protagonist of this story takes refuge in a laboratory where an enigmatic investigation is being carried out. With the intention of creating the most advanced virtual reality video game, a team led by the charismatic Dr. Dunn seeks to reproduce the hallucinogenic effects of an ancient plant known as “sky wing.” A duel of shadows soon begins in which it is difficult to discern who has more to hide. Perhaps only the mythical wing can guide the way out of this labyrinth of illusions. In The Gaze of Plants, Edmundo Paz Soldán manages to amalgamate a wide series of literary motifs to formulate urgent questions about our time, in which the seductive power of screens seems to trap us with their promises of satisfaction and plenitude. Dystopia and fantasy literature are enveloped by the dense foliage of the jungle – that fragile titan in danger of disappearing – to take to the extreme the minds of beings that wander through this world with their wounds open, raw. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Calibrando el foco en la investigación social Author Gabriel Nardacchione Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918266 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 416 Format Printed THEMA Social theory Synopsis "This book offers original contributions by outstanding authors in Europe and Latin America that highlight the productivity of the pragmatic approach in contemporary social sciences, since it allows a more accurate reflection on social processes in permanent emergence and transformation. Among other issues, it shows that empirical research depends not only on the theoretical frameworks with which it is constructed, but fundamentally on the way in which work in the field influences the formation of theoretical categories." foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

La comuna mexicana
Read moreTitle La comuna mexicana Author Bosteels, Bruno Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078683710 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Socialismo y sistemas relacionados Synopsis Mexico, 1521; Paris, 1871. What these dates summarize are not only violent stories, marked by brutal repressions at the end of each episode, they also contain in their resistance a concern for the potential explosion of the common—an explosion whose political form would be, precisely, the commune. Beyond or here of the workers massacred 150 years ago, or the Aztecs killed 500 years ago, what this book proposes to build is a partial history of that underground tradition of communal rebellions in Mexico. Bruno Bosteels traces the survival of a social form whose aspirations, if we follow Marx's most cited texts, were embodied in the Paris Commune and verified in Russia. However, Marx also wrote about Tenochtitlan and Tlatelolco, and based on these ethnological notes, Bosteels recovers a communal tradition that remained firm throughout the colonial era and was present in the Mexican Revolution. If the calpulli was its first form, experiences such as those of Morelos, Acapulco and Edendale, to Chiapas and currently Cherán, prove that in Mexico the communal, more than a suspended time or an exceptional moment, opens an expansive form that escapes what It is thought to be immovable: an obstinacy that, through multiple isolated outbreaks, traces its path as a political ideal. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -
