La evaluación de la gestión pública desde un enfoque decolonial: teorías, experiencias y aprendizajes
Esta obra parte de la necesidad de buscar formas de conocimiento en las políticas públicas, específicamente en la evaluación de políticas y programas. Desde un inicio, el enfoque eurocéntrico desarrollista se impuso como el único camino para alcanzar el desarrollo de las sociedades y con ello culminar un proyecto civilizatorio occidentalizado. No obstante, las diferencias socioculturales en el mundo demostraron que el modelo importado por Estados Unidos y Europa era insuficiente para Asia, África, América Latina y el Caribe. Es así que replanteamos el método del conocimiento dentro de las políticas públicas, sus cimientos, pilares y alcances. A partir de las experiencias de análisis de políticas públicas y, en específico, de la evaluación de programas y políticas públicas, decidimos extrapolar la pretensión de conocimiento al momento más abstracto: la epistemología. Es en este nivel que reconsideramos los porqués del inicio y paraqués de los fines de la acción pública. Pretendemos descolonizar/decolonizar la evaluación de los programas y las políticas públicas.
The Zapatista Movement and Mexico's Democratic Transition
Transitions from authoritarian to democratic governments can provide ripe scenarios for the emergence of new, insurgent political actors and causes. During peaceful transitions, such movements may become influential political players and gain representation for previously neglected interests and sectors of the population. But for this to happen, insurgent social movements need opportunities for mobilization, success, and survival. This book looks at Mexico's Zapatista movement, and why the movement was able to mobilize sympathy and support for the indigenous agenda inside and outside of the country, yet failed to achieve their goals vis-à-vis the Mexican state.
The Science of Grapevines
The Science of Grapevines: Anatomy and Physiology is an introduction to the physical structure of the grapevine, its various organs, their functions and their interactions with the environment. Beginning with a brief overview of the botanical classification (including an introduction to the concepts of species, cultivars, clones, and rootstocks), plant morphology and anatomy, and growth cycles of grapevines, The Science of Grapevines covers the basic concepts in growth and development, water relations, photosynthesis and respiration, mineral uptake and utilization, and carbon partitioning. These concepts are put to use to understand plant-environment interactions including canopy dynamics, y...
Virulent Zones
Scientists have identified southern China as a likely epicenter for viral pandemics, a place where new viruses emerge out of intensively farmed landscapes and human--animal interactions. In Virulent Zones, Lyle Fearnley documents the global plans to stop the next influenza pandemic at its source, accompanying virologists and veterinarians as they track lethal viruses to China's largest freshwater lake, Poyang Lake. Revealing how scientific research and expert agency operate outside the laboratory, he shows that the search for origins is less a linear process of discovery than a constant displacement toward new questions about cause and context. As scientists strive to understand the environm...

Cracking the Metabolic Code
Crack Your Code and Reach a New Level of Healing and Health Doctors traditionally prescribe a pill for every ill. But for most people, these single solutions don't work. The truth is, most chronic health problems, including stubborn weight gain, unbeatable fatigue, intestinal distress, high blood pressure, creeping cholesterol, and high blood sugar, are not found in simply one organ, but in several parts of the body (oftentimes in twos and threes). This is the result of years of slow, subtle challenges to your metabolism, which is as unique as you are. Your diet, lifestyle habits, stress level, prescription drug use, and relationships, as well as the genes you inherit and the environment in ...
Urban Remote Sensing
Driven by advances in technology and societal needs, the next frontier in remote sensing is urban areas. With the advent of high-resolution imagery and more capable techniques, the question has become "Now that we have the technology, how do we use it?" The need for a definitive resource that explores the technology of remote sensing and the issues it can resolve in an urban setting has never been more acute. Containing contributions from world renowned experts, Urban Remote Sensing provides a review of basic concepts, methodologies, and case studies. Each chapter demonstrates how to apply up-to-date techniques to the problems identified and how to analyze research results. Organized into fi...
