Desde el 7 de octubre de 2023, Israel ha arrojado más de 100.000 toneladas de bombas sobre Gaza, su colonización continúa en Cisjordania y la solución de los dos Estados se aleja cada día más. Europa observa y lo permite. En este ensayo, riguroso y accesible, Bichara Khader reconstruye la genesis de la tragedia palestina desde 1897 hasta 2025. No se trata de otra historia mas sobre Palestina. Es una manera diferente de mirarla, subrayando la asimetria estructural entre israelies y palestinos, asi como el efecto domino que esta tragedia ha provocado en Oriente Medio, en el espacio mediterraneo y en Europa. Occidente asume una pesada responsabilidad historica permitiendo la consolidacion de la ocupacion israeli, la colonizacion progresiva de Cisjordania, la destruccion de Gaza y, finalmente, la deriva religiosa y supremacista del Estado de Israel.El ensayo concluye con una reflexion humanista que llama tanto a israelies como a palestinos a salir de la ecologia del sufrimiento y del odio que obstruye los caminos hacia el futuro e invita a negociar una salida razonable a este conflicto, que no puede resolverse mediante la formula explosiva de ellos o nosotros.Bichara Khader es profesor emerito de la Universidad Catolica de Lovaina y fundador de su Centro de Estudios e Investigacion sobre el Mundo Arabe Contemporaneo (CERMAC). Es autor y editor de 30 libros sobre Palestina, el mundo arabe y las relaciones euroarabes y euromediterraneas, 11 de ellos en lengua española.

Una propuesta para moderar el efecto divisivo del nacionalismo.El nacionalismo resurge con fuerza -del Brexit al independentismo catalán, del trumpismo al irredentismo ruso- en un mundo globalizado que, paradojicamente, lo alimenta. ¿Acaso podemos fundamentar la comunidad politica de otra manera?

Bridgerton is the runaway Netflix success that has captured the hearts and imaginations of its biggest ever global audience. Producers Chris Van Dusen and Shonda Rhimes have ripped up the Regency drama rulebook to create a series that speaks to a modern audience. Apart from the intense sexual chemistry, inspired casting and a lavish costume budget, what sets Bridgerton apart is the extensive use of location shooting. Step forward Bath: the Georgian architectural jewel gets to play many different parts of fashionable London. Bridgertons Bath takes you on a tour of all these locations from No.1 The Royal Crescent (the Featheringtons house on Grosvenor Square) to Abbey Green (Covent Garden) and the Abbey Deli (Modiste couturier) on Abbey Street. Bridgerton intersects with Jane Austens world at the Assembly Rooms where one of the early balls takes place, while the 18th-century Bath Guildhall also gets a place on the series dance card. A key character in the drama is Lady Danbury, played by Adjoa Andoh, and her grand mansion is Baths former Sydney Hotel, today the Holburne Museum. Gunters Tea Room was a celebrated London patisserie and in Bridgerton it can be found on Trim Street. Many Bath streets feature regularly, including Beauford Square, a place for regular carriage trips and the Royal Crescent, which in Series One, reverberated to the sound of galloping hooves as our heroine (or her stunt double) raced to stop a duel. The book includes a feature on how the series was filmed in the city, and includes a detailed map so you can follow your own Bridgerton Walking Tour of this beautiful city, which has more to offer besides.

What is postulated here is not the dogmatic laying down of a way of working. Rather the aim is to make evident one possible means of access to an experience of the colour world... and guide actual practice to Rudolf Steiners sketch motifs to their eminent educational power for we recognize in them a path that can become of great significance to the developing human soul. From the Introduction This unique workbook describes the early stages of a training for painters, teachers, as well as complete beginners. These stages are based on recommendations Rudolf Steiner gave for the further development of an art of painting suitable for our time. The authors sources are: Steiners indications for the teaching of painting in the first Waldorf School, his colour and art lectures, and the sketches he made for painters. Together they form a self-contained system of exercises for a new art that is spiritually alive.The path that Gerard and Elisabeth Wagner have set forth which leads to experience of the spiritual basis of artistic activity and strengthens the human beings creative potential can serve as the means for a renewal of the art of painting out of the eternal and inexhaustible sources of the spirit.

In volume 1, Professor Verdon sought to identify what crippled social anthropologys original project, that of understanding sociocultural variability. He found its cause in a universal, Aristotelian cosmology that renders groups ontologically variable to their principles of social organization, by defining them in terms of behaviour regulation. In this second volume, he develops a cure to that cosmological malaise: to define groups outside all behaviour regulation, and to define a separate group for every type of activity (unifunctional groups). From these two new cosmological requirements he sets out to define all the main concepts of social anthropology in what he calls an operational language (defined with respect to anthropologys aims, not as entities with intrinsic anthropological attributes): groups, corporations, descent, territoriality, lineages, segmentation, sovereignty and so on.He then applies this language to translate classical ethnographies operationally. He first chose the most famous ethnographies of so-called segmentary lineage societies, the Nuer (Sudan), Tallensi (Ghana) and Tiv (Nigeria), and then added the Berbers from the Rif (Morocco), the Yao (Malawi) and Australian Aborigines. All those societies were described as having descent groups. Translated operationally, ONLY ONE of them retains descent groups (the Tallensi). This leads him radically to transform the ethnographic landscape of social anthropology. Where all ethnographers saw descent groups almost everywhere, he finds them to be rare occurrences, now replaced with clientelistic social formations.Overall, setting out to define a set of etic (objective) concepts, he discovers that this language actually yields much better emic approaches to social organization (an approach closer to the actors subjective experience).

Are we destined to merge with the machines weve created? What if the Singularity the moment of merger already happened? How would we know?The King and the Swarm argues that we already have. We did so via an always-on and increasingly omnipresent mesh of digital sensing points that spans the world, and of which you almost certainly have one in your pocket. The global transformation this has wrought reaches far beyond economics, reshaping politics, culture, sex, family, and even consciousness itself.
