Despus de ms de 20 aos de docencia en la enseanza secundaria me he permitido elaborar el libro que me hubiera gustado poder consultar cuando empec.Sin atenerme a ninguna programacin escolar vigente he desarrollado aquellos temas que creo que debera tratar una introduccin a la Poltica.Aunque siempre he buscado la sencillez expositiva no por ello he obviado ninguna cuestin por su supuesta complejidad.Partiendo de los fundamentos comunes a la tica y la Poltica, la libertad y la justicia, me adentro en un desarrollo simple basado en la relacin entre ambas disciplinas a lo largo del tiempo. No pretendo ser exhaustivo con los autores tratados, pues eso dara lugar a otro tipo de manual ms lleno de datos y detalles, sino esbozar los temas tal y como han ido apareciendo a lo largo de la Historia.Al hilo de los filsofos clsicos como Platn, Aristteles, Maquiavelo, Hobbes, Rousseau, Marx, etc. y de algunos contemporneos a los que presto especial atencin como H. Arendt y J. Patoka va emergiendo el rostro de nuestras ideologas polticas actuales y de las estructuras y sistemas en que se concretan.Honestamente, creo que el beneficio que puede aportar esta obra es la cantidad y la concrecin de los ejemplos que abundan en los textos clsicos de la disciplina pero sin olvidar la relevancia de algunos documentos literarios y cinematogrficos con que podemos contar en el s. XXI.

Anyone who cares about the girls and young women in their lives should read GIRLSJONATHAN HAIDTFreya India is one of our sharpest, smartest young writers HELEN LEWISGIRLS: Gen Z and the Commodification of Everything is a passionate, provocative and deeply personal journey into the pressures shaping young lives today. Freya India shows that age-old anxieties of girlhood are now being amplified by modern life and exploited like never before. While previous generations of women were relentlessly sold products and procedures, we have become the product. We display our lives on Instagram, advertise ourselves on dating apps and package ourselves into personal brands, making anxiety feel overwhelming and unmanageable. We have transformed from girls into GIRLS, from people into products.Each chapter of GIRLS focuses on a common anxiety in adolescent girls lives, from insecurities about our faces and bodies, to our reputation and social status, to our friendships and romantic relationships. Along the way, India traces how rapidly culture and technology have evolved over the past decade.This isnt just a book for girls. For young women, it offers a nostalgic, if unsettling, reflection on the world theyve grown up in and reassurance that theyre not alone in their struggles. For younger girls, it provides context for where these challenges began and warns where they might be headed. And, for parents, teachers and older generations, it serves as a reminder that these issues have never been so intense.GIRLS concludes with a message of hope, reminding readers how to reclaim their privacy, defend their dignity, and, above all, return to being people instead of products.

Crimea, 1854: Sevastopols inhabitants taunt the besieging forces that keep them trapped behind defensive walls. So begins Leo Tolstoys depiction of nine months of battle and bravery, based on his own experiences in the Crimean War.This new translation by acclaimed translator Nicolas Pasternak Slater introduces us to long-suffering citizens, vain hussars and the courageous Kozeltsov brothers - one jaded and pragmatic soldier, one naive and hungry for glory. Enduringly vivid, profoundly ironic, Tolstoys portrayal of the stumble from triumph to disaster captures the absurdity at the heart of conflict.
