Health & Personal DevelopmentRelease the Wound
Una oportunidad de vida
by Gina Goldfeder
Release the Wound is about letting go of our primal wounds as a path towards building a new identity. The result of many years of practice, this book teaches readers how to overcome the challenge and succeed in rebuilding their selves. It invites readers to let go of the role of the victim and resignify who we really are. For many, unresolved trauma develops an existence of their own and converses with us, becoming our accomplice in the practice of justifying why we cannot live a fulfilling life, no matter how much we want to Release the Wound is an invitation to defeat the victim and start anew. Using examples from many cases from her private practice, and building from the deep understanding taught by experts and professionals, Dr. Golfeder's book includes three main sections: Part One describes the meaning of the primal emotional wound, its origin, and how we identify ourselves with it. Part Two offers specific tools to release the wound and strenghten the creation of a new personal identity. Part Three is about practices and disciplines to enjoy life from a new point of view. This book is centered on the process of knowing, honoring, and learning to release the wound and turn it into a new opportunity for life. The tools devised and described by the author are a compilation of different therapeutic approaches and years of work in the field.

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2019Nosotros, 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.

Literature & Literary StudiesAugust 2016Andares de un Artista: Poemas y Arte
Poemas y Arte
by Ann A. Guerra
Andares de un Artista no es un libro comun. Es una caminata a traves de las calles de la experiencia. Calles que a veces han sido crueles e implacables; otras, frivolas e indiferentes. Ausencias de amores, de todo. Desavenencias que han producido un profundo dolor humano, y que han hecho brechas, dejando profundas cicatrices. Pero tambien esas mismas calles sirvieron de escenarios para los dramas que alli se desarrollaron, impactamdo profundamente mi sentir. Dando paso a la inspiracion que, dio forma y vida a mis poemas y lienzos. Por ultimo, tocando las fibras mas sensibles del alma romantica y algo aventurera del poeta que vive en mi.

Humanities & Social SciencesGazes for an emerging citizenship. Encounters and disagreements on the digital ambit
Encuentros y desencuentros en el escenario digital
by Rocío Abascal Mena, Claudia Pedraza Bucio
Today we inhabit a world that has been transformed by digital technologies, allowing effortless connection through social media and access to vast amounts of information. In this socio-cultural space, a form of citizenship emerges that displays its capacities and potentialities; that requires active participation in different moments of encounter and disagreement; that calls for dialogue, decision-making, the creation and consumption of information, and, above all, that aims to the configuration of critical subjects capable of transforming their reality: citizens who are also consumers: gamers, readers of news and people looking for love with their best profile picture. In the emergence of this citizenship, dialogical-discursive relationships arise in the context of mass self-communication, through daily, individual and collective interactions, in which fundamental rights are disputed, such as the rights to communicate, to information, to free expression, to privacy. This setting implies great challenges for the exercise of citizen life. The gaze of this book returns to the practices that in one way or another allow and demand to be assumed as a political subject from everyday life. Without intending to exhaust the contexts and contingencies of the digital, the text calls for interpretation, discussion and search for answers that allow us to understand the emerging citizenship, of which we are already participants, beyond our clicks.

The work is the result of a call addressed to the community of the School of Plastic and Audiovisual Arts of the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, in the year 2021, in which students and teachers were invited to share their experience since the beginning of the confinement within the framework of the sanitary contingency; this through a plastic work, a text, or both, so that different expressions about how life has been modified since the existence of the coronavirus were combined.
