RESUMEN: La historieta contemporánea latinoamericana que toma el imaginario medieval como base de su construcción ficcional no ha sido suficientemente estudiada por la crítica. En este artículo nos proponemos llevar a cabo un análisis de la serie Almer, del argentino Manuel Loza, publicada durante la segunda década del siglo XXI. Nos centramos, por un lado, en las continuidades que esta ficción presenta con la materia medieval y, por otro lado, en las particularidades que adquieren los personajes y las aventuras acaecidas en un contexto diverso. Entre estos aspectos se destaca la reelaboración de un elemento particular del mito artúrico, la igualdad entre pares, para la creación de un caballero novedoso cuya tarea es, fundamentalmente, la de proteger a los trabajadores y los oprimidos de la sociedad. Al final se incluye como apéndice una entrevista realizada al autor en 2021 con motivo del presente número de Storyca. ABSTRACT: Contemporary Latin-American comics that adopt the medieval world as the basis of their fictional creation have not been sufficiently studied by scholars. In this article we propose to carry out an analysis of the series Almer, by the Argentinian author Manuel Loza, published during the second decade of the 21st century. We focus, on the one hand, on the extensions of the medieval matter found in this fiction and, on the other hand, on the peculiarities that the characters have and the adventures that take place in a diverse context. Among these aspects we highlight the redefinition of one of the elements of the Arthurian myth, that of equality among peers, in order to create a novel knight whose task is, above all, to protect laborers and the oppressed in society. At the end we include, as an appendix, an interview conducted to the author in 2021 on the occasion of the current volume of Storyca.

This work undertakes a systematic reconstruction of the debates that took place over the course of several decades up to the beginning of the 21st century between Derrida on the one hand and Searle and Habermas on the other. It shows that the linguistic theories and the theories of communicative understanding developed by Searle and Habermas are based on inferences from the contingent individual case to the general. Searle draws ontological, Habermas anthropo-political conclusions, both with essentially naturalistic signatures. Derrida, on the other hand, raises epistemological objections and consequently develops a metaphysics of free subjects for whom conversation cannot necessarlily be presumed. The explicit dedication to ethics in Derrida's late work is due to his insight that the possibility of language and understanding is due to silence. Derrida's lasting merit lies in enriching the philosophy of language with a secretology. This study has been awarded the Kant Prize of the Institute of Philosophy of the University of Bonn and the "Prix de la République Française", awarded by the French Embassy and the University of Bonn.

Contemporary researchers of local communities and human societies face a new and difficult task today. It is, on the one hand, related to the great interest in this topic and the difficulty of creating a new concept that would fully exhaust the scope of phenomena observed presently in local communities and human societies. On the other hand, the character of changes that have gained momentum in the first decade of the 21st century, and the description of their sources, become particularly difficult to describe and name. The present article is an attempt at an indication of the need of an evolution of perception on societal reality and the emerging new social issues. Contemporary paedagogy attempts to write about the necessity of awareness/ education related to the needs of establishment of local communities and the creation of bonds as a response to processes related to social life in times of globalisation. It is a fact that we are presently dealing with a change in the forms and character of local communities.

European Modernism

The 13 stories of the collection The Foreign Legion (A legião estrangeira, 1964), the first appearance of Clarice Lispector in Bulgarian, are a piece of hypnotic writing that is difficult to compare with any other writer’s language of that time. On the one hand, this prose has a memory of the European modernism with the experimental spirit of the Left Bank of the Seine, with elements of literary cubism and delicate traces of Judaic mysticism… On the other hand, the European refinement and suffistication are literally shaken by the local culture with its smell of jungle and its colorfully hysterical Latin American Catholicism.

The paper analyses, in the context of Dragojla Jarnević’s Diary, the concept of democratism from the authoress’ viewpoint of the world regarding the liberal values that represent foundation of democracy. Considering the problems related to the issue of contemporary democracies eminent intellectuals of the 20th and 21st century have expressed a line of doubts and objections, thereby threatening the concept of democracy, or twisting democracy in its own contradictions. In retrospect, during Dragojla Jarnević’s lifetime and work, there was an evident complexity and ambivalence of disseminating liberal ideas in the area of today´s Croatia. Shaping and expressing of Dragojla Jarnević’s democratic views shows that it is possible to interpret democracy from different points of view – on the one hand, it is the best social model, on the other hand, it sometimes transforms in its contradiction. Certain contradictions are observed in Jarnević’s personality, however, her personality eventually reveals a brave and democratic (literature) subject.

This chapter offers a critical survey of feminism in Latin America, highlighting the contributions of prominent Latin American feminists in art, politics, and philosophy. The essay begins with a discussion of the pioneering feminist ideas of Juana Inés de la Cruz and their reception in Latin American feminist thought; and it continues with an elucidation of contemporary feminist critiques of the neoliberal paradigm of “multiculturalism.” The chapter also discusses how, around 1995, Latin American feminism became split in the academy: on the one hand, there were those Latin American feminists who favored the strategy of diversifying the curriculum and including gender issues within the existing institutional and academic frameworks; and, on the other hand, there were those Latin American feminists who favored a more subversive strategy of ignoring traditional forms of academic recognition and privileging the engaged thought and action of the women’s movement.

Postmodern warfare in the 21st century can in simple terms be described as a combination of traditional and modern, indirect and direct, regular and irregular, symmetric and asymmetric, military and civilian components, following the postmodern motto of anything goes. On the one hand, its use is supposed to limit warfare. On the other hand, it tends to de-bound warfare due to its inevitable boomerang effects. New ways of warfare are due to minimize own casualties and to alleviate the waging of wars or interventions. The phenomenon of postmodern warfare raises a host of questions that comprise political, theoretical, conceptual, legal, ethical, and practical aspects.

RESUMO O início do século XXI evidencia um crescente paradoxo no campo da inovação. De um lado, teóricos do campo da inovação e formadores de políticas consideram a inovação como algo ainda restrito ao domínio das empresas. De outro, o aumento da digitalização e a redução de custos de comunicação faz com que cada vez mais pessoas possam se envolver na geração de inovações e mudanças tecnológicas em diferentes contextos. Nesse cenário, emerge o Movimento Maker. Este artigo oferece um debate acerca das práticas desse movimento que geram questionamentos sobre as teorias de inovação atuais, propondo novos olhares e questões de pesquisa.Palavras-chave: Inovação; Democratização da Inovação; Movimento Maker.   ABSTRACT The beginning of the 21st century shows a growing paradox in the innovation field. On the one hand, innovation theorists and policymakers consider innovation as something still restricted to the company domain. On the other hand, the increase in digitization and the reduction of communication costs enable more and more people can be involved in the generation of innovations and technological changes in different contexts. The Maker Movement emerged in this scenario. This article offers a debate about the practices of this Movement that challenge the innovation theories and has proposed new views and research questions.Keywords:Innovation; Democratizing of Innovation; Maker Movement.

The prevailing theory in continental European and Latin American legal literature distinguishes two kinds of punishable omissions: the simple (or "authentic," "genuine") omission and the "inauthentic" or "pseudo" omission (also known as commission by omission, comisióón por omisióón). In this article a tripartite classification of crimes of omission is proposed. On the one hand, there are crimes of omission that are identical to cases of active commission (for which we should reserve the term of commission by omission). These are based on the idea of responsibility for one's own organization. On the other hand, there are simple crimes of omission in which we punish a breach of a duty of minimum solidarity toward our fellow citizens. Somewhere between these two categories lies a third type of aggravated crimes of omission that are based on liability for a breach of a duty of qualified solidarity (derived from specific institutions or relationships between people). Moreover, this threefold classification is based on the idea that differences between such omissions are a matter of degree.

This chapter explores how virtual gaming (VGaming) serves as an ideal platform for harnessing multi-skills and multi-literacies. It argues that VGaming provides the opportunity for gamers (learners) to engage not only in social learning, situated learning and problem based learning, but also in meta-gaming, meta-literacies, and multi-tasking. It demonstrates all this through the use of five case studies involving five virtual games: Everquest Online Adventures; NUCLEO; Homicide; Mad City Mystery; and Lineage. Most importantly, it maintains that VGaming exposes gamers to 21st century skills. Against this background, the chapter provides, first, an overview of VGaming. Second, it presents five case studies showcasing how virtual games (VGs) help leverage multi-skills and multi-literacies for gamers. In addition, it illustrates how VGs enable gamers to engage in social learning, situated learning and problem based learning on the one hand, and in meta-gaming, meta-literacies, and multi-tasking, on the other hand. Third, it argues that VGaming exposes gamers to 21st century skills. Fourth and last, the chapter outlines future trends for VGaming.
