Transgressive Learning: A Possible Vista in Higher Education?
2012
A key question for most societies is how to prepare young people for the demands of their future work and life environment. However, as Ronald Barnett (High Educ Res Dev 23(3):247–1260, 2004) remarks, ‘learning for an unknown future calls for an ontological turn from knowledge to being-in-the-world’, which makes its own demands. Being in the world calls for one’s opening up to new experiences, throwing oneself into a state of effort, engagement and inspiration.
El ecofeminismo
2017
El Ecofeminismo, más allá de una tendencia, es un modo de ver la vida y los procesos que de ella subyacen, es por tanto una filosofía de trabajo. Este modo de entender la existencia, basado en la reivindicación de modelos no patriarcales y holísticos, está surcado por diferentes tendencias, desde experiencias diversas, pero nacen de un tronco común y complementan un modo de estar del mundo: la conciencia de ser naturaleza. Estos principios de trabajo, por la riqueza de los mismos, podrían muy bien ayudar a hilvanar el discurso transversal de un programa formativo basado en el humanismo muy en sintonía con la Educación Popular.
Honouring the opening: Unfolding the rich ground between the philosophical thinking of Martin Heidegger and practice-based empirical work
2021
The aim of this article is to bring philosophical thinking closer to practice-based empirical work. Using Martin Heidegger’s philosophy, it offers a bridge between these two worlds, attempting to provide philosophical depth to the findings of a hermeneutic phenomenological study. This process unfolded through the appearance of three intertwined, potential, meaningful modes of being in the lifeworld: space as a condition for being and being for worlding the world; temporal and spatial self-being, the existence of multiple selves in time and space; and suffering and thriving as modes of being. The article extends the dialogue and concludes with key reflections and insight for research practic…
Meaningless Life: The Role of Clinical Phenomenology in Understanding the “Being in the World” of Psychiatric Patients
2018
The paper focuses on the use of phenomenological psychiatry in researching the life-world of psychiatric patients. Although the subjective experiences of patients can be fundamental for understanding the inner life crisis and revealing a meaning that could make these experiences understandable, they are often undervalued in clinical psychiatry for their not being considered useful for diagnosis.

Die Frage nach Zusammenhangen zwischen politischer und okonomischer Entwicklung ist eine Kernfrage der Entwicklungsforschung. Klassische Ansatze wie Modernisierungs- und Dependenztheorien und neuere Ansatze der Institutionenokonomik und Good Governance (dt. gute Regierungsfuhrung) untersuchten diese Zusammenhange. Als Begrunder dieses Forschungsprogramms gilt Seymour Martin Lipset. Sein Essay „Some Social Requisites of Democracy: Economic Development and Political Legitimacy“, 1959 in der „American Political Science Review“ erschienen und 1960 als zweites Kapitel in seinem Buch „Political Man — The Social Bases of Politics“ (→ Lipset 1960) abgedruckt, gilt als Anfangspunkt der modernisierun…
