Read moreTitle La danza de los extintos. Juvenicidio, violencias y poderes sicarios en América Latina Author José Manuel Valenzuela Arce Publisher Editorial Universidad de Guadalajara Imprint Colección Episteme ISBN 9786075717081 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 252 Format Print and digital THEMA Society and Social Sciences Synopsis This book presents an interpretative framework of the Latin American reality on how socio-cultural and economic scenarios are constructed that result in the processes of precariousness, defenselessness, violence and desubjectivation to which young people are exposed, taking as a central axis the concept of juvenicide. The work praises the remarkable work of young people as protagonists of resistance struggles and new social movements in urgent problems such as poverty, feminicide and juvenicide, who through slogans, songs and hopes anticipate other possible worlds. foreign rights contact Iliana Ávalos González E-mail iliana.avalos@editorial.udg.mx -

Read moreTitle Educación ambiental y movimientos sociales. Convergencias progresivas en México Author Beatriz Torres Beristain; Francisco Javier Reyes Ruiz; Gerardo Alatorre Frenk; Rosa María Romero Cuevas; Antonio Fernández Crispín; Norma Araceli Hernández Corona; Érika Sánchez Cruz; Teresita del Niño Jesús Maldonado Salazar; Blanca Estela Gutiérrez Barba; Luis Mauricio Rodríguez Salazar; Jorge Alejandro Negrete Ramírez; Elba Aurora Castro Rosales; Rafael Tonatiuh Ramírez Beltrán; Armando Meixueiro Hernández Publisher Editorial Universidad de Guadalajara Imprint Colección Excelencia académica ISBN 9786075715223 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 252 Format Print and digital THEMA Earth Sciences, Geography, Environment, Planning Synopsis Socio-environmental movements and environmental education know that reality cannot be changed by wishful thinking. This work shows that it is still possible to stir up social groups through expressions such as poetry and film to mobilize consciences and motivate calm but firm action. Both forces converge in this publication to confront a bitter landscape traced by an unbridled and chaotic modernity, with the aim of untying knots in our current situation and to be recognized as citizen expressions in the face of uncertainty in our environment. foreign rights contact Iliana Ávalos González E-mail iliana.avalos@editorial.udg.mx -

Read moreTitle Resiliencia Author David Camacho Valadez; América Lizbeth Zazueta López; Gerardo Aguilera Rodríguez; José Francisco Muñoz Valle; Erick Vietnam Ibañez Martínez; Irene Concepción Carrillo Saucedo; Raúl Vargas López; Avelina Vargas Aldana Publisher Editorial Universidad de Guadalajara Imprint Colección Páginas sueltas ISBN 9786075715766 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 104 Format Print and digital THEMA Health, Relationships and Personal development Synopsis In some cases of adverse or dangerous situations, it is interesting to observe that two people can react in different ways and cope in different ways. Examples of this can be found in stories of wars, accidents or illnesses where, despite the vicissitude, people continue with a favorable attitude towards life. The term "resilience" refers precisely to these modes of "resistance" or "adaptation" in the face of adversity. This book provides relevant and competent information on the current state of resilience studies. foreign rights contact Iliana Ávalos González E-mail iliana.avalos@editorial.udg.mx -
El Amal. Historias de mujeres saharauis
Read moreTitle El Amal. Historias de mujeres saharauis Author David Camacho Valadez; América Lizbeth Zazueta López; Gerardo Aguilera Rodríguez; José Francisco Muñoz Valle; Erick Vietnam Ibañez Martínez; Irene Concepción Carrillo Saucedo; Raúl Vargas López; Avelina Vargas Aldana Publisher Editorial Universidad de Guadalajara Imprint Colección Resonancias sororas ISBN 9786075717296 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 240 Format Print and digital THEMA Society and Social Sciences Synopsis This book tells the story of the Saharawi people, moving away from the historical paternalism with which history has always been written. It is the author's wish to open a new chapter by narrating the reality from the eyes, feelings and struggles of the Saharawi women; their life stories are the central axis of this book, and we narrate it from a different approach, that is, we link the life stories with the testimonial theater of the third generation of women, most of whom were born in the refugee camps. foreign rights contact Iliana Ávalos González E-mail iliana.avalos@editorial.udg.mx -
La araña huachicolera y otros mitos de ocho columnas
Read moreTitle La araña huachicolera y otros mitos de ocho columnas Author Luis Javier Plata Rosas; ilustrado por Francisco Oldemar González Gómez Publisher Editorial Universidad de Guadalajara Imprint Colección Gabinete de curiosidades ISBN 9786075716459 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 236 Format Print and digital THEMA Society and Social Sciences Synopsis La araña huachicolera exposes the evidence -or the lack of it- behind popular beliefs, urban legends, quackery and myths that rule the world of pseudoscience, those that appear in the digital media accompanied by phrases such as "science says so" or "scientists assure". The author of this work demystifies -with ironic touches- those dogmas that have been reproduced as an incessant loop in different media and that have no support whatsoever. foreign rights contact Iliana Ávalos González E-mail iliana.avalos@editorial.udg.mx
