El enemigo en casa: Una lectura de Paul Virilio, Norbert Elías y Corey Robin
No full textLa guerra ha sido considerada por la antropología social como una de las actividades productivas más importantes de las culturas, civilizaciones o sociedades. Ella no solo reconfigura los lazos internos de solidaridad por medio del temor, sino que también continúa el sistema productivo por medio de avance tecnológico. Cuando las sociedades dejan de practicar la guerra simplemente mueren. No obstante, luego del ataque a las Torres Gemelas en Septiembre de 2001, el concepto de guerra ha cambiado radicalmente hasta transformarse en objeto de temor pero también de atracción. Dentro de ese contexto, el presente trabajo indaga sobre el pensamiento de tres especialistas (Paul Virilio, Norbert Elías y Corey Robin) que han hecho del fenómeno su centro de estudio y meditación. Estos exponentes han afirmado que la evolución moral de toda civilización depende de sus oportunidades de asociación ante la guerra y los recursos tecnológicos a su disposición que los lleva a celebrar la guerra e imponer la paz

Core Journal Lists: Classic Tool, New Relevance
No full textReviews the historical context of core journal lists, current uses in collection assessment, and existing methodologies for creating lists. Outlines two next generation core list projects developing new methodologies and integrating novel information/data sources to improve precision: a national-level core psychology list and the other a local institutional core list for the interdisciplinary field of urban studies and planning.

El enemigo en casa: Una lectura de Paul Virilio, Norbert Elías y Corey Robin
No full textSocial Anthropology delved into the war as one of most important activities of all societies, cultures and civilizations. She not only sets the circles of solidarities by means of the articulation of fear but also she continues the advance of technology previously developed in peace-time. Whenever societies are unable to make the war, simply they are extinguished. Nonetheless, after the World Trade center’s attack in Sept. 2001, terrorism advent and the war on terror have created a pervasive reality wherein the fear and spectacle converges. In this conjuncture, this paper explores the conceptual connection between Paul Virilio, Norbert Elias and Corey Robin who have made of this issue their epicenter of research and thinking. They have certainly argued that moral evolution of every civilization is circumscribed to its own opportunities and technological resources to celebrate the war and impose peaceLa guerra ha sido considerada por la antropología social como una de las actividades productivas más importantes de las culturas, civilizaciones o sociedades.
