Sommario/riassunto

"Drawing is an important means to analyse information and develop rigorous arguments both conceptually and visually. Going beyond the how-to drawing manual, this book provides an instrumental approach to drawing, especially computer-generated drawings; it outlines how drawings should be used to convey clear and analytical information in the process of design, as well as the communication and discussion of a project. In depth examples are provided how to communicate effectively. The final section demonstrates how to transform case-studies, directly connecting an analytical approach with the design process"--

"Provides students with the tools to produce coherent case studies -- the bedrock of every architectural education"--

Sommario/riassunto

This paper describes the phonetic form, the distribution and the possible functions of ejectives in English and German, proposing that ejectives are on the increase in different varieties in English. The problems of teasing apart the different contributions of allophonic regularity, interactional function, sociophonetic variability and epiphenomenal inevitability in accounting for ejectives in English are discussed. Possible production mechanisms behind ejectives in both languages are explored and doubt is cast on previous epiphenomenal accounts which have ignored the importance of a pulmonic

Sommario/riassunto

Desafíos para una filosofía intercultural nuestroamericana surge como una obra de colaboración colectiva en la que tres profesores de filosofía de universidades de Argentina, Alemania y Colombia, respectivamente, reflexionan sobre y desde el proyecto filosófico intercultural. Es un libro donde los lectores podrán encontrar los aportes de los autores y autora, a través de textos derivados de sus procesos académicos e investigativos. Se trata de una 'trama' filosófica que se articula a partir de la crítica intercultural de la filosofía, cuyos problemas y desafíos están directamente asociados al monoculturalismo, el eurocentrismo y a la preocupación por la pretensión universalista de las epistemes occidentales agenciadas por los cánones disciplinares, al igual que a su marcada predominancia en los ámbitos educativos institucionales actuales, por cuanto se siguen reproduciendo en los discursos y en las prácticas pedagógicas. Además de ello, el libro es una apuesta a la renovación y ampliación de las prácticas y estudios filosóficos en nuestro medio continental, pero, ante todo, es una apuesta por la esperanza. El contenido del libro se corresponde con la propuesta de una tarea ya iniciada a nivel mundial y



con variantes en nuestro ámbito continental, pero cuyo éxito depende del trabajo denodado de varias generaciones filosóficas. Se lo puede sintetizar en pocas palabras: filosofía intercultural nuestroamericana y Universidad Intercultural Nuestroamericana como acicate y tarea para re-existir, sentipensando desde las raíces plurales de Nuestra América, en la revitalización de voces 'otras' y de saberes 'otros', con agencias 'otras' y justicias 'otras', en polifonía y en el difícil camino de la paz.
