Item type:Publication, From Aristotle via Aquinas: Understanding Formal Cause in Marshall McLuhan’s Philosophy(Intellect, 2017)This book brings together a number of prominent scholars to explore a relatively under-studied area of Marshall McLuhan’s thought: his idea of formal cause and the role that formal cause plays in the emergence of new technologies and in structuring societal relations. ©The authors ©Intellect. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Women in Mexican Politics: A Study of Representation in a Renewed Federal and Democratic State(Bloomsbury Publishing Plc., 2017)This book offers an analysis of how women's participation is conducted in Mexico´s political sphere. Federalization and decentralization processes can have a significant impact on women's participation and discrimination. By questioning the form in which a democratic state is built (that is, the degree of (de)centralization) the book looks to a set of forms and processes affecting women's political life. A decentralized form of state-government implies three levels of government in which women (or any other group of people) can have active participation: central-federal government, state-regional-province government, and local (municipalities) government. This book offers an analysis of how gender discrimination operates in a different way in each of these levels of government and the corresponding political activity. Policies that fight against gender discrimination and promote women's participation, in both administration and political parties, do not always operate cooperatively, and often exist in contradiction with each other. © 2017 by Lexington Books.

Item type:Publication, Soft Power and Public Diplomacy: The Case of the European Union in Brazil(Figueroa Press, 2018)This research starts from the hypothesis that public diplomacy helps the European Union (EU) strengthen its soft power. Given the significance of Brazil as a strategic partner in Latin America, it is therefore important to identify and analyze the ways in which the EU has developed its public diplomacy with this country. With the aim of contributing to the analysis of the EU’s international activities from the perspective of public diplomacy, the following questions will be answered: Which public diplomacy activities does the EU practice in Brazil? Which challenges and opportunities does the EU face in the application of soft power? This article firstly develops a theoretical framework on the EU’s soft power resources. Secondly, a contextual framework is presented regarding the EU’s relations with Latin America, Mercosur, and Brazil in the last three years (2011-2013), which coincide with the start of the supranational and official EU diplomatic service: the European External Action Service (EEAS). Finally, there follows the identification and analysis of EU public diplomacy activities in Brazil. This research draws upon existing academic publications, official EU documents and websites, and interviews with personnel from the EEAS (in Brussels and Brasilia) and DG Development and Cooperation (DG DEVCO). ©The author ©Figueroa Press. . - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Framing as a tool for mediatic diplomacy analysis: study of George W. Bush’s political discourse in the “War on Terror”(Universidad de Navarra, 2013)Public diplomacy is an international political communication activity to which States and other organizations resort in order to achieve political objectives abroad and to establish positive relations with foreign publics. It is an activity that has evolved to adapt to the new global context, adding new characteristics and giving place to the so-called “new public diplomacy”. One of the different variants of public diplomacy is mediatic diplomacy, whose end is to get the public diplomacy’s message transmitted by institutional media or to get a positive coverage by foreign media. This article proposes a specific process to apply the framing theory as a tool for political discourse analysis, an essential element of mediatic diplomacy. The process is applied to George W. Bush’s political discourse during the first months of the “War on Terror”. ©The author © 2013 Communication&Society/Comunicación y Sociedad. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The Expropriation of YPF from Repsol in the Argentine Press: Analyzing Framing in Opinion Pieces through Rhetorical Criticism(Fundacion Universitaria San Pablo CEU, 2015)This article examines how opinion articles in the Argentine press framed the government’s expropriation of Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales (YPF) from Repsol in 2012. By understanding frames as narratives composed by the interrelation of the functions of frame, and adopting Kuyper’s proposal to analyze framing from the perspective of rhetorical criticism, this study focuses on two newspapers with opposing editorial lines (La Nación and Página 12) and identifies two different narratives shaping the reporting of this story. The results also reveal two different views of the role of the market and the state in the economy and in the management of energy resources. ©The author ©CEU San Pablo University. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Schleiermacher on Plato: From Form (Introduction to Plato’s Works) to Content (Outlines of a Critique of Previous Ethical Theory)(Brill, 2019)Plato was a major point of reference and important intellectual tool for numerous post-Kantian thinkers struggling to overcome Kant’s transcendental ideal ism, with its unwelcome division between the unknowable “thing in itself” and what the object is “for us” under the conditions of experience. Yet nowhere—not in Schlegel, Schelling, Humboldt, or Hegel—does Plato occupy a more central, stable, or elaborate place than in the work of Friedrich Schleiermacher.Interpreters have often spoken of Schleiermacher’s “Platonism”. While the exact implications of this general label need to be specified, it does capture the fact that Schleiermacher’s references to Plato throughout his philosophical works are numerous and usually very positive—indeed, always, when the first principles of philosophy are at stake. This is especially the case in his Discourses on Religion; his lectures on Dialectic, on Ethics, and Aesthetics; in various lectures given at the Berlin Academy; and most densely in the work I shall examine here in some detail, the Outlines of a Critique of Previous Ethical Theory (Grundlinien einer Kritik bisherigen Sittenlehre). ©The autor ©Brill8 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Framing and Political Discourse Analysis: Bush’s trip to Europe in 2005(OberCom, 2014)Framing empirical research analyzes the construction (frame building) and influence (frame effects) of the frames with which different social agents interpret and communicate reality. Based on Entman’s (2004; 2008) and Kuypers’ (2008; 2009) contributions, this paper proposes and applies a qualitative methodology for the analysis of frame building in political discourse. It is located, therefore, on the strategic and methodological lines of framing research in political communication (Bartolomé; Rodríguez & Sádaba, 2012). As Kinder and Sanders state, frames are “invented and employed by political elites, often with an eye on advancing their own interests or ideologies, and intended to make favorable interpretations prevail” (Kinder & Sanders, 1990, p. 74). The paper includes a theoretical framework that reviews the evolution of framing literature in Communication, focusing especially on empirical studies. The contributions adopted for the elaboration of the methodology and the application process are explained in detail. The context of the case study, Bush’s discourse about the War on Terror on his trip to Europe in February 2005, is revised. Finally, the results obtained and the conclusions. ©The author ©Observatorio (OBS*) Journal4 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The Concept of Presocratic Philosophy: Its Origin, Development, and Significance(Princeton University Press, 2018)When we talk about Presocratic philosophy, we are speaking about the origins of Greek philosophy and Western rationality itself. But what exactly does it mean to talk about “Presocratic philosophy” in the first place? How did early Greek thinkers come to be considered collectively as Presocratic philosophers? In this brief book, André Laks provides a history of the influential idea of Presocratic philosophy, tracing its historical and philosophical significance and consequences, from its ancient antecedents to its full crystallization in the modern period and its continuing effects today. Laks examines ancient Greek and Roman views about the birth of philosophy before turning to the eighteenth-century emergence of the term “Presocratics” and the debates about it that spanned the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. He analyzes the intellectual circumstances that led to the idea of Presocratic philosophy—and what was and is at stake in the construction of the notion. The book closes by comparing two models of the history of philosophy—the phenomenological, represented by Hans-Georg Gadamer, and the rationalist, represented by Ernst Cassirer—and their implications for Presocratic philosophy, as well as other categories of philosophical history. Other figures discussed include Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Diogenes Laertius, Schleiermacher, Hegel, Nietzsche, Max Weber, and J.-P. Vernant. Challenging standard histories of Presocratic philosophy, the book calls for a reconsideration of the conventional story of early Greek philosophy and Western rationality. ©The autor © Princeton University Press.14
