To verify the existence of dichotomic split between activity and labor, as a certain kind of genealogy has pointed out, allows us to deconstruct the complex phenomenology established by the fordist renovation (neo-Fordism) and techno-organizational mutation (post-Fordism, cognitive capital,...) promoted within the frame of production-reproduction of mercantilized socialization. One of the most outstanding effects of these transformations is that labor becomes above all an absorption of neuromagma and the different modalities of intersubjective relation. Besides, the demand of workforce gets modified contracting itself and causing the expiration of the so-called 'working society.' All in all, it is about psycho-social swallowing up, the objection to some behaviors, noises that distort momentarily sense & meaning. In general, what these questions reveal is the need of proposing new practice and categorizations regarding the theory of value and the critics to politics.
In this paper, I will argue that Giorgio Agamben has provided for a radical theory of the import of torture on human life, one that provides a different genealogy and projects different implications for the relation between torture and politics than have otherwise been given. I will begin by examining some of the features of the current, post-September 11 'debate' about torture, before moving to an exegesis of Agamben's theses and their import for thinking politics today. ; En este ensayo, defenderé que Giorgio Agamben ha propuesto las bases de una teoría radical de la importancia de la tortura sobre la vida humana, que proporciona una diferente genealogía de la misma y proyecta diferentes implicaciones para la relación entre tortura y política de las que se han dado hasta la fecha. Quiero comenzar por examinar alguno de aquellos rasgos del debate actual sobre la tortura tras el 11 de septiembre, antes de pasar a una exégesis de las tesis de Agamben y su importancia para el pensamiento político actual.
Arabic poetry and literature are one of the richest and most precious treasures of world literature, which have introduced valuable works to the world literary society in various fields such as wisdom, preaching and ethics and in general, whatever related to the spiritual and instinctive aspects of human beings. Various works in the mentioned fields illustrate the fact that not only the pioneers of Iran in the past have done justice in this regard, but also the intellectuals and scholars of today's literature have not refrained from any effort to introduce these works to the enthusiasts of literature. For this reason, we intend to re-examine the same works of our ancient scholars written in Arabic since unfortunately, there is a deep gap between this great ancient Arabic culture and today's contemporary culture. Whether the reasons are cultural, social or political, it has caused us to less address this category of literature and Persian poets composing in Arabic, who have proceeded along with the homeland literary men and have introduced valuable works to mankind. In this paper, we aim to study one of the committed scholars of Khorasan literature and Ghaznavi court and a special and trustable writer of Saboktakin and his son Mahmoud and accordingly, we examine, describe and translate the complete works of Hakim Abul Fath al-Bosti who is constantly shining in Arabic literature like a blazing light.

El presente ensayo intenta establecer una crítica sociológica a la teoría contractualista. El artí- culo se enfoca en problematizar los aportes filosóficos políticos de Thomas Hobbes e Immanuel Kant, por considerarlos dos importantes exponentes de la teoría iusnaturalista. En el primer apartado analizamos el concepto de estado de naturaleza como metáfora de la sociedad de mercado, desarrollando la crítica de Marx a la separación teórica entre Estado y sociedad civil. Posteriormente reflexionamos sobre la noción de contrato social y su importancia en la legitima- ción de la construcción del orden moral. Para esto, retomaremos los aportes que hiciera Emile Durkheim a la teoría kantiana del imperativo categórico, así como las críticas desarrolladas desde la perspectiva sociológica del estructuralismo. Por último, se intentará determinar la vigencia actual de la teoría contractual, tanto en sus posibilidades como en sus limitaciones explicativas. ; The present essay aims to establish a sociological criticism of the contractarianism theory. This article focuses on the problematization of the philosophical and political contributions of two of the greatest exponent of natural laws: Thomas Hobbes and Immanuel Kant. In the first part, we analyze the concept related to the state of nature as a metaphor for the market society,developing Marx's critic to the theoretical separation between State and civil society. Later, we consider the notion of social contract and its importance in legitimating the moral order. For this purpose, we will go back to Emile Durkheim's contributions to the concept of categorical imperative developed by Kant as well as to some critical aspects developed from the structuralism's sociological point of view. Finally, we will attempt to determine the current validity of the contractual theory, both in its possibilities and in its explanatory limitations.

During the 1990s, migration researchers in sociology and anthropology focused disproportionately on the idea of transnationalism, leading to investigations of critically important phenomena such as transnational parenting, diaspora politics and identity, flexible citizenship, social remittances, and other factors influencing the experiences of international migrants. This work also produced comprehensive ethnographic accounts of families and communities with attachments to places in two or more countries, profiling peoples who had forged dynamic relations between sending and receiving neighborhoods based on economic opportunities, cultural exchanges, and social networks. The argument presented here offers a slightly different perspective on transnationalism, examining managed migration and the migration industry that has emerged around labor contractors, human smugglers (coyotes), and travelers who routinely carry goods between migrant sending and receiving communities. While this industry facilitates transnationalism, like transnationalism it is ultimately a symptom of a process more comprehensive than international migration: capital's desire for a highly flexible labor force that expands and contractsseasonally and in response to periods of economic growth and decline, is highly mobile, and is largely separated from reproductive settings.
In the following article we seek to build bridges between Mariátegui's Latin American Marxism and what the Portuguese sociologist Boaventura de Sousa Santos calls "sociologies of absences" and "sociology of emergencies". The key concept, which allows us to rehearse this reading here, is that of Antonio Gramsci's translation, a concept that refers to the work done on scientific, philosophical and political experiments in order to find an equivalence in other realities. As we will try to show, Mariátegui's Latin American Marxism can be understood precisely as an effort to translate Marxism into Latin America, contrary to any form of Eurocentric Marxism. The effort he undertakes to root Marxism into his own national reality goes hand in hand with the implementation of procedures close to the sociology of absences and sociologies of emergencies, as critical procedures to modernizing Western modern reason, which Sousa Santos calls "indolent reason". ; En el siguiente artículo buscamos tender puentes entre el marxismo latinoamericano de Mariátegui y lo que el sociólogo portugués Boaventura de Sousa Santos llama "sociologías de las ausencias" y "sociología de las emergencias". El concepto clave, que aquí nos permite ensayar esa lectura, es el de traducción de Antonio Gramsci, concepto que refiere al trabajo realizado sobre experimentos científicos, filosóficos y políticos para que encontrar una equivalencia en otras realidades. Como intentaremos mostrar, el marxismo latinoamericano de Mariátegui puede entenderse, precisamente, como un esfuerzo de traducción del marxismo a América Latina, a contramano de toda forma de marxismo eurocéntrico. El esfuerzo que emprende por arraigar el marxismo a su propia realidad nacional va de la mano con la puesta en marcha de procedimientos cercanos a la sociología de las ausencias y sociologías de las emergencias, en tanto procedimientos críticos a la razón moderna occidental totalizante, que Sousa Santos denomina "razón indolente". ; No artigo seguinte, procuramos construir pontes entre o marxismo latino-americano de Mariátegui e o que o sociólogo português Boaventura de Sousa Santos chama de "sociologias das ausências" e "sociologia das emergências". O conceito-chave, que nos permite ensaiar essa leitura aqui, é o da tradução de Antonio Gramsci, um conceito que se refere ao trabalho realizado em experimentos científicos, filosóficos e políticos para encontrar uma equivalência em outras realidades. Como tentaremos mostrar, o marxismo latino-americano de Mariátegui pode ser entendido precisamente como um esforço para traduzir o marxismo na América Latina, ao contrário de todas as formas de marxismo eurocêntrico.

Esta investigación se centra en la Responsabilidad Social Corporativa (RSC) de las compañías tabacaleras con el objetivo de responder si estas compañías usaron las iniciativas de RSC en Colombia como una estrategia para mejorar la imagen corporativa y contrarrestar su mala reputación, como parte de su estrategia para evitar mayores avances en la regulación. Utilicé un análisis de datos cualitativos para procesar los documentos disponibles en sus páginas de internet oficiales y en los principales medios de comunicación nacionales entre el 2008 y el 2011. La conclusión más importante es que las compañías tabacaleras aparecen como un socio estratégico dentro de los esfuerzos de desarrollo del país, con dos posibles objetivos: mejorar su imagen y ganar influencia en procesos políticos. Se hace necesario considerar de manera especial estas estrategias a la luz del alcance de la prohibición al patrocinio y promoción que tiene la industria. ; This research focuses on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) by tobacco companies in order to answer whether these companies used CSR initiatives in Colombia as a strategy to enhance the corporate image and counter their bad reputation, as part of its strategy to prevent further advances in regulation. I used a qualitative data analysis to process the documents available on its official internet pages and major national media between 2008 and 2011. The most important conclusion is that the tobacco companies appear as a strategic partner in efforts for development of the country, with two possible objectives: to improve their image and gain influence in political processes. It is necessary to consider these strategies especially in light of the scope of the ban to sponsorship and promotion that the industry has.

This article aims, focusing on Argentina, to problematize the cultural inheritance of the last dictatorship and how it demarcates democratic politics. Analyzing the novel La aventura de los bustos de Eva by Carlos Gamerro, we will see how the neoliberal transformations on the work culture, define the confronted hegemonic blocks of the political present as the novel depict its similarities on the equal work process of subjectification that takes over the soul and desire of the worker, which is translated into a political antagonism with more in common than differences. We will arrive to the conclusion on the necessity to question work as a reproductive praxis in order to recover the soul of the worker and to create another politics beyond the pendular political antagonism inherited from the last dictatorship. ; El presente artículo problematiza, centrándonos en el caso argentino, la herencia en la cultura del trabajo del último período dictatorial en América Latina y cómo ella delimita la política democrática. Tomando la novela La aventura de los bustos de Eva de Carlos Gamerro, veremos que los cambios del neoliberalismo en el trabajo, fijan los bloques antagónicos del presente político. La novela los denuncia por encontrar congruencias en su proceso de subjetivación laboral que coopta el alma y el deseo del trabajador, que se traduce en un antagonismo político con más similitudes que diferencias. Concluiremos que es necesario cuestionar al trabajo como praxis reproductiva para recuperar el alma del trabajador y crear otro tipo de política más allá del antagonismo pendular de lo político heredado por la última dictadura militar.
This paper presents an analysis of the key factors that, seen from the point of view of entrepreneurs in the software development industry in Colombia, may have a positive effect on the competitiveness of this sector.
