Violet glasses… but with what lenses? Theoretical routes between the production and the reproduction of work by Andreina Colombo

“…Using the analogy of the “purple glasses”, three different approaches are identified: (i) with single vision lenses (looking at either production or reproduction), which attempts to describe the two realms from the viewpoint of only one of the two, ii) with bifocal lenses, which consider productive and reproductive work as equally relevant, while establishing clear-cut differences between the two, and iii) with progressive lenses, which allow us to see the two domains as part of a continuum, stressing their simultaneities, overlays and intermittencies . …”

La alteridad desde la perspectiva de la transmodernidad de Enrique Dussel by María Eugenia Córdoba, Claudia Vélez-De La Calle

“…Se basa en el reconocimiento de la exterioridad negada que surge como categoría de análisis de la alteridad desde el paradigma del Alter Tú, que Dussel aplica a la realidad latinoamericana a partir de los planteamientos de los postmodernistas que reconocen el momento final de la Modernidad, pero se separa de dicha escuela en lo que respecta a la persistencia en su visión helenocentrista y hegemónica de los paradigmas eurocéntricos y en la falta de diálogo con las culturas no Occidentales. …”

«Li sens conmence contreval a filer…». Imaginaire du sang et hétérodoxies épiques dans La Bataille Loquifer by Carlos F. Clamote Carreto

“…Tainted by the mark of ancestral taboos that shake the poetic discourse ( as with the vision of the blood that women shed, for example) or assigning the dangers of an open wound which threatens the integrity of the epic hero transformed into a sacrificial victim whose blood, shed on the battlefield, purifies and regenerates the space conquered by the Christian logos, blood creates and transmits a paradoxical imaginary which is both projected and reflected in the lineage and in the language, which reflects in the epic poetry itself. …”

The Ecstasy of Communication. Critical remarks on Jean Baudrillard by Pieter Duvenage

“…The point is that with the “… greater mediatization of society … we are witnessing the virtualization of our world.”2 This contribution briefly reconstructs, firstly, two phases in Baudrillard’s intellectual career – phases that shifted from an early neo-Marxist critique of the modern consumer society to a post-Marxist or postmodern view of society (which include engagements with socio-anthropology; psychoanalysis, sociology, semiology and media theory), and eventually ends in a kind of anti-theory with an extreme fatal vision of the world.3 In section 2 the implications of these two shifts in Baudrillard’s intellectual career are contextualized in the field of media and communication studies – and specifically his concept of the “ecstasy of communication”. …”
