        Why Schools Have to Learn to Give Everyone a Voice

        by Melisa Erkurt

        Melisa Erkurt and her parents moved to Austria from Bosnia when she was a child. She  studied and now works as a teacher and journalist. She’s made it – but she’s an exception. Because at the end of a school year, she knows that the majority of her pupils will never speak German well enough to change their fate – and their fate is predetermined. A generation of children is growing up in Germany and Austria without language or self-esteem, and to whom no one listens to because they cannot articulate themselves. While others discuss »culture clash« in the classroom, Melisa Erkurt lends her voice to the losers of the educational system. It is not these pupils who need to change, but the school system which needs to break new ground.

        Nosotros, Colombia… Comunicación, paz y (pos)conflicto

        by Sergio Roncallo-Dow, Juan David Cárdenas Ruiz, Juan Carlos Gómez Giraldo

        Peace seems to have been elusive in Colombian history. The ups and downs in the negotiation processes, the unfulfilled promises, and the political polarization have made Colombia a nation in a state of continuous crisis and that, in spite of itself - to take up the old Bushnell phrase - has managed to stay afloat and, above all, do not lose hope for a stable and lasting peace.   There have been numerous attempts to build it and they seem to have been unsuccessful, especially because a good part of the collective representation that we have of them has been built from the media apparatus that, in the case of our country, has been at the service of power and that it has resulted in skepticism that, especially since the 1990s, has tended to transform into a strong polarization. With this book, we want not only to think about peace and (post) conflict from communication but to remind (us), once again, that we can still be we.

        Lugares, recorridos y sentidos de la memoria histórica: Acercamientos metodológicos

        by Laura Fonseca Durán, Diana Vernot, Tatiana Rojas Roa, Laura Giraldo Martínez, Edwin Corena Puentes, David J. Luquetta Cediel

        This book is an initiative of the Regional Groups of Historical Memory (GRMH), which, together with the National Center for Historical Memory since 2013, generated proposals for the construction of historical memory in Colombia. The objective of the consolidation of the GRMH has been to recognize local research processes carried out by university professors to build bridges between the country's institutions and communities victimized in the framework of the internal armed conflict in Colombia.   Although the participatory social research bets are nourished by multiple edges, disciplines, and schools of thought, there are methodological peculiarities in the investigations that are formulated in the key of historical memory that, on this occasion, are transversal and are deepened in each chapter.

        The Lady of the Prado

        by Alejandro Corral

        AN ENIGMATIC YOUNG GIRL MURDERED YEARS EARLIER As delivery of the manuscript draws closer, Oliver Brun, a young writer and art history researcher who, after winning a major literary award, fears that he will not live up to expectations with his second novel, feels less and less inspired. Nothing seems to break his writer’s block, till one day, at the house of his teacher and mentor, David Sender, he comes upon a secret: the enigmatic photographs of a young woman and a portrait of her posing as the Mona Lisa. A LEGENDARY PAINTING IN THE PRADO MUSEUM A few days later, in the town where David Sender lives in the Madrid Mountains, bones appear in the lake. Evidence confirms that they belong to Melisa Nierga, the young woman in the photographs, and the teacher is immediately detained by the police. Oliver suddenly realizes that he not only has before him the great story he was waiting for, but also a chilling mystery: could the man who has taught him everything be a murderer? CAN A MURDER BECOME A WORK OF ART? Oliver turns to his college classmate, Nora, to help him unravel the mystery. Together they will come upon some writings in Latin that could link the girl’s murder with one of the most beautiful paintings ever painted, the portrait known as “the Prado’s Mona Lisa”.In this fascinating novel, Alejandro Corral combines the research of some of the best kept secrets in the History of Art with a fast-paced thriller that seizes the reader from the first line.

        Antropología del astronauta cotidiano

        by José Alejandro Polanco Contreras

        Desde la perspectiva de la antropología médica, este libro describe las condiciones de vida de las personas que llevan dispositivos médicos al cuerpo que pueden hacerlos parecer en cierto modo cyborgs, debido a esa simbiosis entre el ser humano y la tecnología. El lector encontrará historias de vida de personas de diversas condiciones sociales y económicas que tienen en común su condición de "astronauta de la vida diaria", término adoptado por el autor para nombrar a aquellas personas que, por circunstancias de su vida, fueron "lanzadas" en la complejidad de vivir con una ostomía. El libro describe la perspectiva médica del problema, así como las tecnologías y dispositivos que se han desarrollado para el cuidado de las ostomías y que han ayudado a esas personas a llevar una vida plenamente funcional.

        Everything has started with the question:“Where’s the happiness?”I wonder if where the happiness was.Was it a gem that would come out from a treasure chest?Or was it hidden inside the house?It could be on the hook, though…Why did everyone have a different answer to thisquestion?My grandfather said, “The happiness is in the heart ofhuman.”Now I understand what happiness means. To some, itis his family; to some it’s the colors of nature; to some it’slove; and to some it’s faith…

        Desplazamientos-Beatriz González

        by Francisco Javier Gil, Elkin Rubiano, María Alejandra Fajardo.

        La presente exposición y los textos que la acompañan proceden de un proyecto de investigación-creación desarrollado por Mariana Dicker, María Alejandra Fajardo, Elkin Rubiano y Javier Gil. Esta exploración pretende pensar las relaciones entre creación artística y memoria a partir de la producción artística de Beatriz González de los últimos 20 años. Consideramos que las imágenes toman posición frente a lo real; no representan lo dado o lo sucedido, sino que lo crean y dimensionan desde sus particulares modos de pensar. Tampoco aspiran a explicaciones totalizantes; significan a través de momentos, fragmentos, detalles y relaciones inéditas. Lo visual toca lo real sin aspirar a verdades absolutas y cerradas, pero desde sus singularidades expresivas renueva la percepción y la comprensión del mundo. En ese contexto, consideramos que el trabajo de Beatriz González construye memoria, asumiendo que esta no se refiere a dar cuenta de hechos objetivos ocurridos en el pasado, sino como una construcción simbólica, un trabajo, una nueva dimensión de sentido vinculada a la creación artística. Sus obras confirman las posibilidades que tienen el arte de participar en la generación de otras historias, de hacer hablar el pasado de otro modo, de expresar lo inexpresado por la historia oficial.

        Laboratorios de paz en territorios de violencia

        by Miguel Barreto Herinques

        Este libro incide sobre una experiencia sui generis de construcción de paz en Colombia, los Laboratorios de paz. Situados en algunas de las zonas más conflictivas del país, constituyeron programas multidimensionales de construcción de paz desde la base, sostenidos por la sociedad civil, y con el respaldo y participación de la Unión Europea y del Estado colombiano. Esta investigación evalúa en qué medida los laboratorios de paz abrieron caminos novedosos y “fórmulas” alternativas para la paz a nivel local y regional.

        A defence of armed Art/Struggle

        by Óscar Guardiola-Rivera

        Esta actitud obsesiva y antinomiana, que se denomina provocativamente la lucha "armada" en el camino hacia la paz (más que como lo opuesto a ella), presente como espíritu, efervescencia colectiva, combate o fantasma en los rituales institucionalizados o constitutivos (ejemplificado por el (episodio del juramento a cetro en la literatura clásica, ya menudo imaginado como un "contrato" original autorizado por una "voluntad" genérica que legitima el derecho en la literatura moderna), está representado bajo la economía política del régimen industrial-colonial en un estado de suspensión o "emergencia". En este sentido, como se sugirió anteriormente, el "estado de emergencia" que según Benjamin se ha convertido en la regla no es consecuencia de la violencia. Al contrario,es el intento de suspender el combate,
