Book Description
La ópera en la actualidad es el tema que se aborda en este libro conformado por las conversaciones que sostuvo Gerardo Kleinburg con diez grandes protagonistas del quehacer operístico internacional: intérpretes, creadores y directores artísticos que piensan y reflexionan sobre este género para saber cuáles son en la actualidad sus mayores retos y hacia dónde se dirige. Así, Francisco Araiza, Barbara Hannigan y Sara María Sun, cantantes de primer nivel; Peter Sellars y Marcelo Lombardero, directores de escena fundamentales; Enrique Arturo Diemecke, director concertador y artístico; Markus Hinterhäuser y Christopher Koelsch, programadores de orden internacional, al igual que una creadora protagónica como Gabriela Ortiz y el escritor Jorge Volpi, hablan aquí acerca de los nuevos lenguajes musicales, canoros y dramáticos, de la relación entre los creadores e intérpretes de la ópera y su público, de la relevancia y los límites de la puesta en escena y su vínculo con las nuevas tecnologías, de la programación artística como discurso y como acto estético, político y social de interlocución, provocación y convivencia, del perfil actual y futuro del nuevo cantante, y del humanismo intrínseco a esta forma de arte dramático, un humanismo que necesitamos más que nunca y al que debemos aferrarnos para sobrevivir como individuos y como especie.

Book Description
God's Assassins tells the story of state terrorism in Argentina through interviews with participants on all sides of this issue. They include military officers, "third world" priests, Catholic church officers who supported military objectives and methods, former members of guerrilla movements, survivors of prison camps, journalists, trade unionists, and others who experienced state terrorism in Argentina. Patricia Marchak combines excerpts from these interviews with documents and media reports from the time and her own insightful study of Argentina's history to provide an analysis of the process as well as the causes of state terrorism. The graphic and moving interviews in God's Assassins show the complexity of these causes and indicate that there is no simple explanation of the period. Was the head of a major guerrilla movement a double agent? Did the intelligence service actually believe it was engaged in the third world war? Why did the Catholic church turn on its own priests? Through her interviews, Marchak reveals much that will never appear in official documents.

Book Description
Esta historia, está llena de duros y desgraciados acontecimientos, pero también, es una historia llena de dulzura, felicidad y sosiego, de acuerdo con los tiempos, que en cada momento acontecían; creo que es una historia donde el lector puede sentirse reconfortado, feliz y hasta identificado en muchos de los puntos de vista. Son muchas las cosas que han ocurrido, en este y otros países, que la gente se ha olvidado; si todos y cada uno de nosotros, echáramos de vez en cuando la vista atrás para recordar, quienes fueron nuestros ancestros. De donde procedemos y de quien. Como fuimos. Como somos y en qué nos hemos convertido; podéis tener la seguridad, de que todos y cada uno de nosotros, seríamos mucho más ricos en valores humanos; valores estos de los cuales cada día carecemos más. La historia de los pueblos y la propia de cada uno de nosotros, es el legado más valioso, que el ser humano puede tener.

Book Description
The SAGE Handbook of Global Sociology addresses the ‘social’, its various expressions globally, and the ways in which such understandings enable us to understand and account for global structures and processes. It demonstrates the vitality of thought from around the world by connecting theories and traditions, including reflections on European colonization, to build shared, rather than universal, understandings. Across 36 chapters, the Handbook offers a series of perspectives and cases from different locations, enabling the reader better to understand the particularities of specific contexts and how they are connected to global movements and structures. By moving beyond standard accounts of sociology and social theory, this Handbook offers both valuable insight into and scholarly contribution to the field of global sociology.
