"This book aims to be a reference for understanding an educational system throughout Latin America aligned with the Catholic Church. In both public and private sectors, whether it's in the secular or the religious sector, considering Catholic Education brings up a question regarding the relevance of religion in the public sector, where education is presented as another alternative of education. This volume allows the reader to take a closer look into the recent challenges of Catholic Education in Latin America, such as quality and excellence, its anthropological dimension, as well as the ongoing dialogue between faith and culture. These essential elements are reflected upon, developing an educational process that responds to the current needs. Deep reflection is made in a contemporary and regional context throughout the eleven chapters of this book, all written by Latin American authors"--Back cover.

Entre las últimas décadas del siglo xviii y las primeras del xix, el mundo iberoamericano experimentó su mayor mutación cultural desde la Conquista. Triunfan entonces concepciones radicalmente nuevas -revolucionarias- sobre la sociedad y la política y, con ellas, prácticas sociales inéditas que van a configurar un nuevo espacio público. Estas profundas mutaciones trastornan el antiguo espacio público: las maneras que los hombres tenían de relacionarse y de comunicarse entre sí y con sus autoridades. Implícita o explícitamente aparece también entonces la voluntad, a veces abrupta, de transformar el heterogéneo público del Antiguo Régimen -católico, corporativo y monárquico- en un pueblo liberal, individualista y republicano. Transformaciones tan radicales no podían imponerse de golpe y enteramente; por eso las permanencias, las resistencias y las adaptaciones son en este campo tan importantes como las novedades y las rupturas. A unas y otras están dedicados los capítulos de este libro. Algunos estudian las prácticas individuales o colectivas vinculadas a la libertad de imprenta, los periódicos y la lectura, las formas democráticas de sociabilidad, la formación de la opinión pública. Otros muestran, al contrario, cómo las "costumbres"anteriores a la mutación de los años 1810 y 1820, lejos de desaparecer, subsisten en una compleja y ambigua hibridación con las prácticas modernas. Medios de comunicación tan concretos como el pasquín, el rumor o el repique de campanas; formas de movilización codificadas y ordenadas por valores antiguos; las plazas y calles como espacios muy concretos de intercambio sobreviven victoriosamente a la aparición de la información impresa y ala difusión de nuevas formas de sociabilidad cultural y política. Otros, en fin, ponen de manifiesto la paradójica marginación popular que lleva consigo la afirmación de la nueva noción de lo público.

This is the first volume fully dedicated to Iberoamerican neomedievalisms. It examines 'The Middle Ages' and its uses in Iberoamerica: the Spanish and Portuguese American postcolonies. It is an especially timely topic as scholars in neomedievalism studies become increasingly conscious that the field has different trajectories outside Europe and beyond the English-speaking world.
The collection provides needed alternatives to the by-now standardized understanding of neomedievalism as allied to nationalism, nostalgia, xenophobia, origin stories, elitism, and white Christian identity. It dislocates the field from its established trends and finds generative, yet unexplored examples of neomedievalism: political, religious, literary, and gendered. The volume will be of interest to established scholars of neomedievalism studies, to scholars of Latin America, and to the new and growing generation of students and colleagues interested in truly global neomedievalist studies.

The indiscriminate use of chemical substances in industrial processes and anthropogenic activities, have resulted in the release of these compounds into aquatic ecosystems through municipal, hospital and industrial discharges, producing various undesired effects on the environment and on species of ecological interest. These compounds, such as metals, pesticides, emerging pollutants and other substances are persistent and susceptible to biotic and/or abiotic transformations, yielding metabolites that can be more toxic than the original compounds. In this book, researchers from diverse environmental science disciplines share their experiences in countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico, and critically examine the problem of contaminants in aquatic ecosystems in Latin America, as well as the risks presented by their presence.

This book brings together the latest information on tropical ungulates in different Latin American countries. These animals are not only important from the point of view of their role in different ecosystems, but also have cultural value for people. The book also discusses topics such as habitat transformation and hunting as these species are an important source of food in many places. Addressing ungulate natural communities in diverse ecosystems and countries, the book provides information on specific aspects of each of the most representative species, and highlights topics to help readers better understand these species and develop effective management and conservation strategies. The information presented also reveals the need for more knowledge and will hopefully provide the incentive for continued studies on this important group of animals. This publication serves as a reference for academic research on ungulate ecology, behavior and dynamics, as well as the basis for conservation strategies.

This book showcases the quality work that Latin American researchers have done on transition to school in Latin American countries by offering the English-speaking world, first-hand access to some Latin American transitions research, practices, and policies. This book shows the work carried out in countries such as Brazil, Chile, Cuba, and Mexico with regards to the way in which the transition to primary school is experienced from different stakeholders' perspectives, and how Latin American educational policies and cultural practices shape such an important process for stakeholders. This book was importantly framed by the COVID-19 pandemic which placed the world in a global health emergency, and it is our hope that this book will trigger future international collaborations between researchers, policy makers, and practitioners interested in transitions which could help produce a wealth of empirical evidence to inform educational policies and transitions practices across the world. Building networks where diverse experiences are valued and respected, as well as analysed, can help provide a platform that supports educators and researchers as they continue their work and branch out in new and challenging directions.
