  Los actuales desafíos del proceso de globalización 

  Vieira Posada, Edgar; edgar.vieirap@ucc.edu.co(Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Centro de Pensamiento Global, BogotáBogotáCentro de Pensamiento Global, 2016-05)

  This book discusses the main challenges of the globalization process nowadays, concerning the adjustments to the neoliberal economic model due to the negative effects of financial crises, the development goals for the next fifteen years, the transcendental technological changes, their implications in the development of cognitive capitalism, the difficult task of facing the consequences of global warming, the implications of the prevalence of human rights over the rights of nations, and the possibilities of emerging nations in the redistribution of world power in an environment altered by the presence of fundamentalist groups. These challenges suggest the relevance of a globalizing process that, given the time elapsed, deserves changes worldwide.

  Bases conceptuales para un análisis crítico del discurso administrativo y económico 

  Botero Cedeño, Eduardo Andrés; botero999@hotmail.com(Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Facultad de Ciencias Económicas, Administrativas y Contables, Administración de Empresas, AraucaAraucaCiencia Inclusiva, 2016-04)

  This book is based on the idea of expressing a critical and thoughtful argument in relation to the epistemological principles that have supported progress in the economic and administrative sciences. In this sense, a divergent position is taken regarding the economic dogma represented in doctrinaire liberalism. The argument has been based on denouncing the distinction between an object and subject of knowledge as contrived, understanding, as did Baudrillard, that in the scientific exercise both agents are immersed in a radical equivalence. Methodologically, a hermeneutic exercise was carried out in which the interpretation constituted a transforming translation process, and the interpretative record became the fundamental basis for change. The work has therefore been composed of three interdependent essays, which address the concept of economic rationality, the discourse of productivity, and the implications of entropy for the economic and administrative sciences. The results of this research show the need to undertake an ontological and epistemological shift, both in analytical tools as well as the discursive justification that characterizes these disciplines of knowledge. The shift proposed in the work implies a transformation of economics as a scientific discipline, so that it will not continue to be developed as an epistemological mechanic of a reductive nature.

  Tourism growth is a trend in the 21st century and more for Colombia, which in recent years has undergone a process of social and political transformation, which has strengthened security indicators, so the country has become a very popular international tourist destination. This book presents a competitive development model for the tourism sector in the research and implementation phases. to do this, we expose the case of the southwest of Antioquia. We begin with the analysis of the relevant strategies to achieve the competitiveness of the tourism cluster in this subregion as a development engine. From there, we present conclusions and recommendations that contribute to choosing more efficient strategies to standardize services in productive units that want to act as a network of companies. also, we show some forms of organization that can make the management of a tourism product, resources, and competitiveness of the subregion more efficient; as well as the aspects that should continue to be strengthened for the construction of a product in this field. The southwest of Antioquia has great potential for its natural and cultural wealth. But it is essential to clearly articulate the different services to create an experience that impacts tourists and makes the territory a truly competitive space.

  Cultura de paz: concepciones, percepciones y compromisos 

  Hernández Arteaga, Isabel; Unriza Puin, María Elsa; Llanez Anaya, Helmer Fernando; Simanca Herrera, Fredys Alberto; Angarita Becerra, Laureano David; isabel.hernandez@ucc.edu.co; maria.unriza@campusucc.edu.co; helmer.llanez@ucc.edu.co; fredys.simanca@campusucc.edu.co; macroler@yahoo.com(Ediciones Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Bogotá, ColombiaExternoCiencia Inclusiva, 2019-12)

  This book presents the results of the research on peace culture conducted at the Cooperative University of Colombia, Bogotá headquarters. This issue is relevant, while Colombia is listed as one of the most violent countries in the world, which makes its culture vulnerable. The university community is aware that the construction of a culture of peace is a challenge and, at the same time, a premise to achieve the development of society. Its construction demands the participation of all. As part of university social responsibility, it is necessary to know how peace is projected from the university environment. For this, it must be understood what conceptions of peace and culture of peace people have and what commitments they are willing to make to build new processes and social relationships based on respect and empathy. The results of this research are permeated by the humanizing tendency of education, which, motivated the transcending rigid and stiff positions, to assume the participation and personal and collective interest in the creation of a culture of peace. Thus, this document presents relevant reflections and commitments, which are based on the social responsibility that the UCC must fulfill (as well as all universities), in relation to the issue of peace; articulating knowledge, experience, resources, and wills to respond to the challenges demanded by the creation and sustainability of a less violent society.

  Democracia, Estado e ideología 

  Duque Silva, Guillermo Andrés; coinderucc@hotmail.com(Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Facultad de Derecho, Derecho, CaliCaliCiencia Inclusiva, 2016-11)

  This book aims to present some of the theoretical proposals that have positioned in Ibero-American academia as philosophical alternatives to the liberal democracy ideology. In it, we find a variety of essays where authors take a stand for or against various understandings of politics in the 21st century. It includes from texts that constitute a defense of individualism and political apathy as an ideological choice to essays supporting a new praxis founded in the radicalization of democratic participation or the performance of violently revolutionary political acts. The importance of new trends in the so-called post-political era is explained: radical democracy, neo-republicanism, liberal socialism, possessive individualism, post-Marxism, new post-structuralism (Foucauldian reading), social psychoanalysis, and political theology. Thus, the classic problems of political philosophy are updated based on an overview of the new paradigms in contemporary philosophy and political theory.

  This book seeks to contribute to address the challenges of education with the quality demanded by the 21st century world. It is based on the understanding and approach of learning difficulties, analyzed from the endogenous and exogenous factors of vulnerable contexts who demand a social and human pedagogy. The results presented are based on qualitative research, the hermeneutic approach and the ethnographic method. They showed the reality of the object of study, from the evidence and experience of their own actors: cycle 2 students, teachers, parents, teaching directors and support staff of the Educational Institution La Despensa, (Soacha, Colombia). The content of the book answers the question: what are the factors of the context that influence the learning difficulties of the students of the institution under study, and what didactic strategies can support its transformation? The findings can be easily transferred to other educational environments with similar characteristics, common to different areas of the country and the Latin American region. In addition, the findings highlight the normative and pedagogical gaps that exist in the topic of learning difficulties, mainly in the pedagogical management by teachers, who have a peremptory challenge, projected to be trained in the subject to strengthen their educational performance and vocation at the service of the integral formation of the minors. Thus, Learning Difficulties... brings the reader closer to current educational trends that, from a human approach, address the complexity of an insecure world, which demands a reflective and critical vision of vulnerable contexts. All this, in relation to learning difficulties and the social responsibility that school, teachers, parents, the State -through the municipal authorities -and the society, in general, have to fulfill in order to train the child in the necessary competences of being, knowing, doing and living together, based on a dialogical construction of their life project that positively impacts their environment.

  This work offers conceptual elements and reflection on the effective possibi- lity of repairing the survivors of the armed conflict, by the legal and psychosocial connotations of the term and the real scope of the Victims and Land Restitution Law. The book is based on the results and experience obtained in the research Psychological well-being, quality of life and social support of the population victim of the armed conflict in Colombia, a descriptive, cross-sectional study aimed at establishing the relationship between psychological well-being, quality of life and the perceived social support of the population victim of the armed conflict in Bello, Trujillo, Montería, Santa Marta and Barrancabermeja, and that was benefited with some measure of attention, assistance and reparation of the aforementioned law. Three instruments (whoqol-bref and mos, of perceived social support, and Ryff’s psychological well-being scale) were applied to a total of 1139 people (non-probabi- listic sampling) recognized by the State as victims and benefited with some measure of the law. The results show that there is an association between psychological well-being and the reception of the “attention” measure of the law. The quality of life and social support perceived by the participating population are associated with having received some of the care, assistance and repair measures. The last two chapters present two readings of realities that complement what was addressed in the study: the experiences in Trujillo, Valle and Montería, whose results coincide with the general findings of the study, according to a territorial and individual approach.

  This book presents the research results of several studies that correspond to research projects developed in the Master’s in Education and Master in Learning Difficulties programs of the Cooperative University of Colombia. All the proposed strategies were experiences and pedagogical experiences in the classroom that become a frame of reference on the line under study. The first chapter develops a classroom strategy that favors open and fluid communication and emphasizes the importance of autonomy and mastery of shared goals. The second recognizes teaching as an essential area for the performance of any profession; Teachers resort to different alternatives, to optimize learning outcomes; One of them is the Integrated Learning of Contents and Foreign Languages, which is used in the teaching processes and integrates contents of a foreign language. The third chapter highlights the influence of ICT in the evolution and innovation of knowledge, which is reflected in the scientific, technological and productive progress of each country. The fourth chapter presents a perspective to rethink industrial design in the current technological context, to propose strategies for its effectiveness in the teaching process. The fifth chapter deals with a theoretical foundation on learning difficulties (AD) and disability, with the intention, first, to differentiate them and, second, to make learning difficulties visible in the educational context. The final chapter presents a pedagogical experience in the classroom, from which the educational community is motivated against the teaching-learning processes of children who have learning difficulties.

  Estudios de la Orinoquia y Amazonia, Tomo II: Ciencias sociales y humanas en la Orinoquia y la Amazonia 

  Vizcaíno Gutiérrez, Milcíades; Cortés Garzón, Lina; Kapfhammer, Wolfgang; Virga Passos, Thais; Silva da Costa, Marcilene; Vieco Albarracín, Juan José(Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Ediciones Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, BogotáBogotáCiencia Inclusiva, 2019-11)

  The interdisciplinary collection Studies of the Orinoquia and the Amazon seeks to generate knowledge, encourage academic discussion and assume alternative solutions to regional problems in the Orinoquia and the Amazon. If the Orinoquia and the Amazon are special territories due to their historical abandonment and they constitute a unique region, they must have a special treatment that facilitates their development and promotes access to scientific knowledge and goods produced in the developed world with respect for populations ancestral and regional cultures. In this second volume are works related to social and human sciences in these regions. Topics ranging from education in the Orinoquia are addressed; geopolitics, physical integration and development in the Amazon; passing through the quilombolas collectives in the Brazilian Amazon; contemporary Amazonian painting; indigenous life plans of the Amazon and Orinoquia; until the study of myth, the market and multiple ontologies in a forest garden project among the Sateré-Mawé of the Brazilian Amazon. The themes are varied and must be assumed from a theoretical, methodological and procedural opening to reach an understanding of the phenomenon in its dimensions and its contexts.

  Arellano Rosero, Carolina; Narváez De La Rosa, Gustavo Adolfo; caojose2004@gmail.com; tavonarvaezdelarosa@yahoo.com(Ediciones Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Bogotá, ColombiaExternoCiencia Inclusiva, 2016-07)

  This book describes the history of Nariño coffee growing from the voice of actors and managers involved in the process of appropriating the coffee chain as a value chain in the municipality of La Union (department of Nariño, Colombia). It starts from 2004, time from which the coffee grower has had an active voice and has engaged in dialogue and participatory decision scenarios motivated by the desire to give his production work a new status: entrepreneur. The strengthening processes in associations supported by entities such as Foundation Social and the formation of the first alliances are major milestones that underpin this work. The book consists of six chapters that deal with the main socio-political and economic aspects of Nariño, is current situation, lessons learned, achievements, difficulties, and areas for improvement, as well as the background that enabled the implementation of a roasting plant in La Union. This work makes an important contribution to coffee growing as a viable and sustainable job for farmers in Colombia. It is aimed at producers and managers of prioritized production chains in Nariño, research groups, entrepreneurs, departmental and municipal governments, scholars, scientists and students, and the general public interested in knowing in depth how social innovation processes are managed in the department of Nariño.

  La integración regional latinoamericana y europea en el siglo XXI: marco para la reflexión sobre su presente y futuro 

  Caballero Parra, Fernanda; Giacalone, Rita; Vieira Posada, Edgar; Álvarez, María Victoria; Batalla, Isabel Clemente; De Lombaerde, Philippe; Fernández Saca, Juan Carlos; Nolte, Detlef; Ramos, Hugo Daniel; Rocha Valencia, Alberto; Romero Wimer, Fernando(Ediciones Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Bogotá, ColombiaExternoCiencia Inclusiva, 2019-12)

  This book covers a series of investigations that promote reflections on two themes in general: the framework of regional integration in the 21st century and the present and future situations of Latin American and European integration. The topics analyzed in the first part include a wide range of nuances regarding the regional integration process, both from the perspective of your current situation and from proposals that aim to channel your future. The analysis of the characteristics and implications of free trade agreements highlights the existence of ideological positions, which hinder the academic debate on regional integration and the same integration process since that time and efforts could be better used to analyze, reflect and build viable proposals and recommendations. In the second part, we find a historical, current and prospective review of the relations between Mercosur and the European Union. Both the general framework of the first section and the specific situations of the second show the richness and variety of interpretations currently produced on regional integration. We consider the participation of academics from different fields, disciplines and different national experiences to be positive. To those of Argentina, Brazil, El Salvador, Mexico, Uruguay and Venezuela, two of the EU are added, while in the disciplines they represent we find political science, economics, history, international relations, and sociology.

  Jóvenes con VIH/sida: sus recursos para afrontar el riesgo suicida 

  Pastrana Morales, Edna Yoly; edna.pastrana@campusucc.edu.co(Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Facultad de Ciencias Sociales, Psicología, NeivaBogotáCiencia Inclusiva, 2019-04)

  Studying human behaviour in its complexity is a constant task that de mands rigor and the responsibility of integrating its findings to the understanding of social realities. This is the purpose of this book, the product of a qualitative study, justified by the incidence of HIV/AIDS and suicide in young people, mental health events that have been addressed from the psychosocial by researchers and organizations and entities who seek to deepen the study of their risk factors, for the structuring and implementation of public policies for prevention and intervention in these cases. The book exposes, in its first part, the antecedents of the problematic and the relevance, the importance and the scopes of the study, to then expand theoretically and empirically each one of the examined categories of analysis (i. e., HIV/ AIDS, suicidal ideation, suicidal behaviours and coping). It also shows the methodological procedure used: from an open interview, the experiences of a group of young people with HIV/AIDS are analysed. With this, we identify suicidal ideations and desires that affect their quality of life, but also a set of cognitive, emotional and behavioural internal resources that contribute to the coping process, necessary to continue life with the human immunodeficiency virus, are also evidenced and described. It is concluded that these young participants, despite the impact and emotional pain generated from the diagnosis —added to the stress caused by stigmatization, rejection, discrimination and guilt— have internal resources and mechanisms that allow them to continue with their project. lifetime.

  Marcadores de infecciones transmisibles vía transfusional 

  Flórez-Duque, Jenniffer; Cardona-Arias, Jaiberth Antonio(Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud, Medicina, Medellín y EnvigadoMedellínMedicina, 2019)

  This book aims to estimate the seroprevalence of markers of infection transmissible via transfusion and its associated factors in donors attending the blood bank of the School of Microbiology of the Universidad de Antioquia, since 2015 to 2016. Previous studies have limitations related to the fact that the population cannot be extrapolated to this research, given that they do not take into account the new infection markers that were included in 2014 for screening in blood banks; it means, they don’t make disaggregated analysis by subgroups of interest in sociodemographic and hematological terms. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted, in which the global seroprevalence of transmissible infections in the blood bank was estimated, as well as the specific prevalence of HIV, HTLV, VHB, VHC, T. pallidum, and T. cruzi. The overall seroprevalence of infections was 3.39%, which in epidemiological terms can be considered a low occurrence. Although, from transfusion medicine, it could be considered high, given that this proportion represents a high number of deferred donors and units of discarded blood, to which the implications that this figure has for the blood bank and its donor selection process could be added. This study has multiple advantages, such as working with population data, exposing the magnitude of the occurrence of infections that are not routinely included in the programs of active epidemiological surveillance in Colombia and identifying groups with the highest occurrence of infections. At the same time, it has advantages of descriptive studies such as: generating hypotheses, simultaneously studying several events and several exposure factors, allowing the investigation of long-term infections or slow development, and guiding health planning and administration actions.
