Devoir de mémoire. Perspectives sociales et théoriques sur la vérité, la justice et la réconciliation dans les Amériques
Les termes vérité, justice et réconciliation occupent aujourd’hui une place importante dans le vocabulaire mobilisé pour cadrer les rapports entre les États des Amériques et les populations qu’ils ont historiquement marginalisées. Enjeu de luttes politiques, la définition de ces mots a une portée juridique et des incidences sur les mesures de réparation envisagées, mais elle soulève aussi, fondamentalement, la question de la manière dont est construit le récit d’une histoire commune capable de dire la violence d’une société. Fruit d’un dialogue entre des chercheurs et chercheuses, des défenseurs et défenseuses des droits de la personne et des membres d’organisat...

Instituciones comunitarias para la paz en Colombia
Si bien existen algunas investigaciones sobre construcción de paz desde procesos locales, este tema ha sido poco desarrollado. Mediante un trabajo de reflexión interdisciplinar, esta obra busca definir las instituciones comunitarias para la paz (ICPP) en Colombia, sus componentes y características, y debatir sobre las funciones que cumplen en contextos de conflicto y de violencia en el país. Esta investigación concentró su análisis en experiencias de institucionalidad comunitaria en Barrancabermeja (Santander), San Onofre (Sucre), el departamento de Arauca y Puerto Gaviotas (Guaviare). La obra responde a la necesidad de reflexiones y debates sobre la poca visibilidad de las ICPP, comparadas con otras formas de gestión de conflictos. En este sentido, es un llamada para que las propuestas de transformación desde los territorios tengan mayor relevancia en el posacuerdo y la construcción de paz.
The Emotional Rollercoaster of Language Teaching
This book focuses on the emotional complexity of language teaching and how the diverse emotions that teachers experience while teaching are shaped and function. The book is based on the premise that teaching is not just about the transmission of academic knowledge but also about inspiring students, building rapport with them, creating relationships based on empathy and trust, being patient and most importantly controlling one’s own emotions and being able to influence students’ emotions in a positive way. The book covers a range of emotion-related topics on both positive and negative emotions which are relevant to language teaching including emotional labour, burnout, emotion regulation, resilience, emotional intelligence and wellbeing among others. These topics are studied within a wide range of contexts such as teacher education programmes, tertiary education, CLIL and action research settings, and primary and secondary schools across different countries. The book will appeal to any student, researcher, teacher or policymaker who is interested in research on the psychological aspects of foreign language teaching.

Hollywood Aesthetic
Hollywood makes the most widely successful pleasure-giving artworks the world has ever known. The industry operates under the assumption that pleasurable aesthetic experiences, among huge populations, translate into box office success. With that goal in mind, Hollywood has systematized the delivery of aesthetic pleasure, packaging and selling it on a massive scale. In Hollywood Aesthetic, Todd Berliner accounts for the chief attraction of Hollywood cinema worldwide: its entertainment value. The book examines films such as City Lights and Goodfellas that have earned aesthetic appreciation from both fans and critics. But it also studies some curious outliers, cult films, and celebrated Hollywood experiments, such as The Killing and Starship Troopers. And it demonstrates that even ordinary popular films, from Tarzan and His Mate to Rocky III, as well as action blockbusters, like Die Hard and The Dark Knight, offer aesthetic pleasure to mass audiences. Hollywood Aesthetic explains how Hollywood engages viewers by satisfying their aesthetic desires. Visit the companion website at www.oup.com/us/hollywoodaesthetic
