Durante el siglo XIX, la cultura adquirió en Occidente una confianza casi ilimitada en su historia. La idea de que el progreso es un atributo esencial del curso irreversible del tiempo y el convencimiento de que la sociedad humana era el destinatario último de los frutos del progreso forman parte del espíritu de la época. El positivismo, una de las corrientes intelectuales más extendidas hacia mediados de siglo, interpretó los signos del progreso como resultado de una ley natural de la historia general del conocimiento por la que éste superaría los atavismos de periodos necesariamente menos afortunados sólo por ser anteriores. Muchos debates característicos de la filosofía y de la cultura contemporáneas se gestan dentro del amplio espectro positivista del XIX. Uno de estos debates fue ocasionado por la más profunda innovación en el conocimiento de la naturaleza orgánica, incluida la del ser humano, habida desde la biología aristotélica. Su formulación ha quedado unida al nombre de Charles Darwin. El darwinismo fue, además de una revolución científica, una revolución cultural. de tal violencia conceptual que su onda expansiva, que al instante alcanzó zonas tradicionalmente alejadas del ámbito de influencia de una ciencia tan humilde como la biología, aún hoy no da señal de debilitarse. Positivismo y darwinismo son en suma cómplices en la lucha contra ancestrales certidumbres sobre qué es el mundo y cómo debe ser conocido. Agentes destacados del vital enrarecimiento del clima intelectual propio de una época innovadora, no defraudarán a quienes prefieran el desasosiego ocasionado por las nuevas ideas a la estabilidad que dispensa la permanencia en las viejas. Por esto son también parte determinante del estado actual de la cultura.

This book is a major reassessment of Michael Weinstein’s political philosophy. It situates his singular contribution, designated as "critical vitalism," in the context of both canonical American and contemporary continental theory. Weinstein is presented as a philosopher of life and as an American Nietzsche. Yet the contributors also persuasively argue for this form of thinking as a prescient prophecy addressing contemporary society’s concern over the management of life as well as the technological changes that both threaten and sustain intimacy. This is the first full scale study of Weinstein’s work which reveals surprising aspects of a philosophic journey that has encompassed most of the major American (pragmatic or vitalist) or Continental (phenomenological or existential) traditions. Weinstein is read as a comparative political theorist, a precursor to post-structuralism, and as a post-colonial border theorist. A different aspect of his oeuvre is highlighted in each of the book’s three sections. The opening essays comprising the "Action" diptych contrasts meditative versus extrapolative approaches; "Contemplation" stages a series of encounters between Weinstein and his philosophic interlocutors; "Vitalism" presents Weinstein as a teacher, media analyst, musician, and performance artist. The book contains an epilogue written by Weinstein in response to the contributors.

A “compelling and elegantly written” history of the fight for the Amazon basin and the work of a brilliant but overlooked Brazilian intellectual (Times Literary Supplement, UK). The fortunes of the late nineteenth century’s imperial powers depended on a single raw material—rubber—with only one source: the Amazon basin. This scenario ignited a decades-long conflict that found Britain, France, Belgium, and the United States fighting with and against the new nations of Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil for the forest’s riches. In the midst of this struggle, the Brazilian author and geographer Euclides da Cunha led a survey expedition to the farthest reaches of the river. The Scramble for the Amazon tells the story of da Cunha’s terrifying journey, the unfinished novel born from it, and the global strife that formed the backdrop for both. Haunted by his broken marriage, da Cunha trekked through a beautiful region thrown into chaos by guerrilla warfare, starving migrants, and native slavery. All the while, he worked on his masterpiece, a nationalist synthesis of geography, philosophy, biology, and journalism entitled Lost Paradise. Hoping to unveil the Amazon’s explorers, spies, natives, and brutal geopolitics, Da Cunha was killed by his wife’s lover before he could complete his epic work. once the biography of Da Cunha, a translation of his unfinished work, and a chronicle of the social, political, and environmental history of the Amazon, The Scramble for the Amazon is a work of thrilling intellectual ambition.

Este libro presenta un aspecto poco conocido del desarrollo del pensamiento social y antropológico en Colombia: el evolucionismo europeo del siglo XIX, y en particular, la obra de Charles Darwin y Herbert Spencer en el contexto de las ideas sobre el indígena americano y el progreso de la nación. A través de la obra de Miguel Triana, conocido autor de la civilización chibcha, se hace un seguimiento al indigenismo en Colombia y su relación con las nociones de progreso, raza y nación. Asimismo, se estudia el papel que desempeñaron los conceptos sobre clima, pasado arqueológico, influencia de la conquista española y deterioro ambiental en la configuración de una nación moderna. La investigación adelantada por Langebaek y Robledo se basa en numerosas fuentes primarias de la segunda mitad del siglo XIX y de las primeras dos décadas del XX. De particular importancia son los numerosos materiales inéditos de Miguel Triana que por primera vez se publican y que son testimonio de primera mano de algunos de los episodios más importantes de la vida intelectual del país

Antitrust policy nominally plays an instrumental public interest role. The generally accepted notion is that it is a government instrument designed to intervene in relatively unregulated markets in order to preserve rivalry among independent buyers and sellers. Competition authorities are supposed to restrain business conduct that exercises monopoly power aimed at excluding competitors or exploiting consumers and clients. Thus it can be said - although few pro-market theorists make the insight explicit - that antitrust provisions reveal mistrust of the capacity of markets to promote social welfare. The inner logic, enforcement mechanisms, and practical outcomes of antitrust provisions are all intrinsically contradictory to the natural dynamic course of market functioning. In Dr. De Leon's challenging thesis, this mistrust of the market lies at the root of antitrust policy, giving rise always to a preference towards 'predicting' the result of impersonal market forces rather than interpreting the entrepreneurial behaviour which creates those forces. And it is in Latin America that he finds the powerful evidence he needs to support his case. From the formative years of Latin American economic institutions, during the Spanish Empire, economic regulations - far from being driven by the pursuit of promoting free trade and economic freedom - have been conceived, enacted and implemented in the context of deeply anti-market public policies, trade mercantilism and government dirigisme. The so-called "neoliberal" revolution of the 1990s triggered by the Washington Consensus did not really change the interventionist innuendo of these policies, but merely restated the social welfare goal to be achieved: the pursuit of economic efficiency. Dr. De Leon presents his case against the assumption that consumer welfare orientated policies such as antitrust do really promote entrepreneurship and market goals. Paradoxically, antitrust enforcement has undermined the transparency of market institutions, in the name of promoting market competition. The author's provocative analysis marshals several sets of facts in support of his thesis, including the actual functioning of antitrust policy as reflected in case law in various Latin American countries, the preference of merger control over other less intrusive forms of market surveillance, the constrained role of competition advocacy against government acts, and the ineffective institutional structure created to apply the policy. Among the many specific topics treated are the following: government immunity; strategic industries; state-owned enterprises; politically influential groups; measurement of market concentration; the burden of proof of social welfare benefits; the role of joint trade associations and professional guilds; institutional arrangements that favour collusion; selective distribution; sector regulation; erosion of property rights; marginal role of courts in the antitrust system; leniency programs; and privatized public utilities. The growing significance of Latin America in the context of economic globalization endows this book with huge international interest. Written by a leading authority on the topic, this is the first book that presents a detailed description of Latin American antitrust law and policy as it has been developed through numerous judicial opinions. A wide variety of audiences around the world will find it of extraordinary value: competition law specialists, scholars and students of the subject, policymakers and politicians in Latin America, as well as all interested lawyers, jurists, and economists.

Looking to the way that race has been conceived through the tradition of Latin American political thought, The Color of Citizenship examines the centrality of race in the making of modern citizenship. It posits race as synthetic, dynamic, and fluid - a concept that will have methodological, historical, and normative value for understanding race in other diverse societies.
