Transitions to upper secondary education are crucial to understanding social inequalities. In most European countries, it is at this moment when students are separated into different tracks and faced with a 'real choice' in relation to their educational trajectory. Based on a qualitative driven approach with multiple research techniques, including documentary analysis, questionnaires and over 100 interviews with policymakers, teachers and young people in Barcelona and Madrid, this book offers a holistic account of upper secondary educational transitions in urban contexts. Contributors explore the political, institutional and subjective dimensions of these transitions and the multiple mechanisms of inequality that traverse them. Providing vital insights for policy and practice that are internationally relevant, this book will guarantee greater equity and social justice for young people regarding their educational trajectories and opportunities.

Mexican Philosophy in the 20th Century - Essential Readings (Paperback): Carlos Alberto Sanchez, Robert Eli Sanchez Jr. Mexican Philosophy in the 20th Century - Essential Readings (Paperback)
Carlos Alberto Sanchez, Robert Eli Sanchez Jr.
R1,342 Discovery Miles 13 420 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Sanchez and Sanchez have selected, edited, translated, and introduced some of the most influential texts in Mexican philosophy, which constitute a unique and robust tradition that will challenge and complicate traditional conceptions of philosophy. The texts collected here are organized chronologically and represent a period of Mexican thought and culture that emerged from the Mexican Revolution of 1910 and which culminated in la filosofia de lo mexicano (the philosophy of Mexicanness). Though the selections reflect on a variety of philosophical questions, collectively they represent a growing tendency to take seriously the question of Mexican national identity as a philosophical question-especially given the complexities of Mexico's indigenous and European ancestries, a history of colonialism, and a growing dependency on foreign money and culture. More than an attempt to describe the national character, however, the texts gathered here represent an optimistic period in Mexican philosophy that aimed to affirm Mexican culture and philosophy as a valuable, if not urgent, contribution to universal culture.

Emilio Uranga, a founding member of the famed el grupo Hiperion, devoted his life to characterizing the nuances and uniqueness of Mexican existence. His landmark book, Analisis del ser del mexicano became an instant classic. This is the first English translation of the work, which, accompanied by a comprehensive introduction, features: * Key moments in the development of 20th century Mexican philosophy up to the writing of Uranga's text * A detailed overview of the translated text and its most significant movements * Discussion of Uranga's relevance to contemporary debates in the phenomenology of culture, decolonial philosophy, phenomenology, and Latin American philosophy itself * Considerations of Uranga's "ontology," and how he justified his project by appealing to 20th-century Mexican poetry and existential phenomenology Reading Uranga's brilliant words expertly translated and introduced by Carlos Alberto Sanchez finally allows us to understand why this Mexican philosopher is considered one of the most fearless and original thinkers of the 20th century.

La oscuridad en el ser humano es tan vital, necesaria e irrefutable como el mismo oxigeno que necesitamos desde el primer segundo de nuestra existencia. Que hay dentro de esa oscuridad que el ser humano ha catalogado como vil y diabolica desde el comienzo? Quien o quienes nos guiaron o nos obligaron a medir o definir el bien y el mal en nuestra naturaleza? Que es y que hace nuestra luz en contra de nuestra propia oscuridad? O mejor aun... Es nuestra luz en verdad esa "virtud celestial" que creemos que es? Que es la gran bestia, la gran criatura que nos mira desde esa oscuridad? Es el tiempo de un nuevo despertar humano. Es la hora en que la humanidad se de cuenta de su verdadero origen divino y haga valer su poder en si mismos. Un despertar tan violento como lo mas cruel y putrido del hombre nos espera. Mas alla de cualquier profecia y vaticinio sobre el fin de los tiempos; nuestros protagonistas se enfrentan a una realidad jamas pensada acerca de nuestra verdadera y unica naturaleza divina o demoniaca. Todo esta relacionado al fin de cuentas, y la gran criatura lo sabe y nos asecha. "Destellos en la oscuridad," te asombrara, te aterrara y te llevara a conocer a nuestra especie como jamas la conociste. La gran criatura te espera.

From Epistemic Justification to Philosophical Authenticity (Paperback): Carlos Alberto Sanchez From Epistemic Justification to Philosophical Authenticity (Paperback)
Carlos Alberto Sanchez
R1,779 Discovery Miles 17 790 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This work engages Edmund Husserl's phenomenological philosophy from the years 1901 to 1913. It argues that central to what Husserl calls 'the phenomenology of reason' is a theory of epistemic justification which proposes that one holds a belief as true when it is 'rational' to hold that belief as true, and this occurs when the belief is justified by an intuitive presentation of the object to which it refers. I focus on three major works of Husserl's early period: Logical Investigations (1900/1), The Idea of Phenomenology (1907), and Ideas Pertaining to a Pure Phenomenology and Phenomenological Philosophy, Book 1 (1913). The claim is that the epistemological ideas leading to the phenomenology of reason follow an uninterrupted and intentional path culminating in the view that it is justification of one's beliefs which allows the thinking subject to overcome her skeptical worries and, ultimately, that it is the phenomenological method itself that serves as the means to achieve philosophical, and human, authenticity.
