World Anthropologies
Author: Gustavo Lins Ribeiro
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000184498
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.

Ética para educadores
Author: Pedro Pablo Correa Fontecilla
Publisher: Editorial Universitaria de Chile
ISBN: 9561127032
Category : Philosophy
Languages : es
Pages : 323
Book Description
¿Cuál es el lugar de la ética en el siglo XXI? La globalización, el mundo en constante cambio, las comunicaciones instantáneas y masivas, el individualismo, la pérdida de confianza en las instituciones, las nuevas tecnologías, entre otros aspectos de la posmodernidad, representan un desafío ético en la formación de las futuras generaciones. En este contexto, ¿es posible una ética sin dogmatismos ni subjetivismos? ¿Está preparada la ética para hacerse cargo del lugar que la sociedad le reclama? ¿Cómo enseñarla de forma aplicada y con sentido? A estas y otras preguntas responde en profundidad el autor, utilizando un lenguaje llano y actual, haciéndose cargo de toda la complejidad que la ética representa, especialmente en un mundo en que cada vez se hace más necesaria y, sin embrago, la percibimos tan alejada de la realidad. Este es un libro que resulta indispensable para cualquier educador que se pregunte sobre los desafíos de su quehacer en el ámbito de la ética.

Book Description
On the eve of the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Fernando J.

This book is an outgrowth of the Porto Alegre conference, and the international environmental philosophers and educators represented here inaugurate a constructive dialogue that will continue well into the twenty-first century. Among the contributors to the volume are environmental philosophers Andrew Brennan, J. Baird Callicott, Fernando J.
