Item type:Publication, Assertiveness in Coffee Agri-Food Chain Business(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2025); ; ;Vega Vera, Nadia ViridianaCastañeda Martínez, Ana ErikaThis document is a chapter that discusses the negotiation problem in product commercialisation by small-scale producers in the Mexican agri-food sector, specifically in the coffee industry. The chapter emphasises the importance of developing soft skills, particularly assertiveness, in the different actors of the productive chain for price negotiation and product commercialisation. The article discusses the concepts of agroecology and assertiveness in agri-food value chains and the methodology used to measure the relationship between assertiveness and overpricing of agri-food goods using a logistic model. The study found that assertiveness in management and other skills and knowledge can lead to higher coffee prices and improve producers’ quality of life. The article also discusses the coffee industry’s evolution in terms of economic units, added value, governance, institutional framework and policy initiatives to support the sector. The study’s results could have implications for other agri-food products in Mexico, such as Creole corn, mezcal, tequila and cocoa.©The authors ©Emerald Publishing. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, El estrés como posibilidad originaria de la existencia. Una interpretación del fenómeno del estrés desde el pensamiento de Heidegger(Universidad Panamericana. Facultad de Filosofía, 2022)Lagos Berríos, RodrigoEl presente artículo tiene como objetivo realizar una interpretación filosófica del fenómeno del estrés a partir del pensamiento de Heidegger. En primer lugar, se hace una revisión general del concepto científico de “estrés” así como de las principales teorías al respecto. En segundo lugar, se analiza el concepto de “estrés” en el pensamiento de Heidegger y se propone entenderlo como carga (Belastung) o solicitudes (Beanspruchungen) que se dirigen al Dasein en su apertura a los entes del mundo. Finalmente, la exposición muestra que el abordaje del fenómeno del estrés desde la perspectiva fenomenológico-existencial de Heidegger nos permite superar las explicaciones causales y fisiológicas que no consideran el estrés como un modo fundamental de ser propio del ser humano como Dasein.15 61 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Nota sobre la (no) espiritualidad en Aristóteles(Universidad Panamericana. Facultad de Filosofía, 1997)DAVID EZEQUIEL TELLEZ MAQUEO;745029Esta nota discute si Aristóteles postuló una dimensión espiritual (pneumatikós) del intelecto (como sugiere M.A. García-Jaramillo, en Tópicos 11 (1996), pp. 51-76) o si sólo atribuyó un tipo de “separabilidad” (khoristhesis) a él. Más aún, la dimensión psicológica del conocimiento es enfatizada y el órgano (y no el alma misma) es identificado como el sujeto de la sensación.11 184 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
