Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2019Nosotros, Colombia… Comunicación, paz y (pos)conflicto
by Sergio Roncallo-Dow, Juan David Cárdenas Ruiz, Juan Carlos Gómez Giraldo
Peace seems to have been elusive in Colombian history. The ups and downs in the negotiation processes, the unfulfilled promises, and the political polarization have made Colombia a nation in a state of continuous crisis and that, in spite of itself - to take up the old Bushnell phrase - has managed to stay afloat and, above all, do not lose hope for a stable and lasting peace. There have been numerous attempts to build it and they seem to have been unsuccessful, especially because a good part of the collective representation that we have of them has been built from the media apparatus that, in the case of our country, has been at the service of power and that it has resulted in skepticism that, especially since the 1990s, has tended to transform into a strong polarization. With this book, we want not only to think about peace and (post) conflict from communication but to remind (us), once again, that we can still be we.

by Mari Pérez
This title proposes a clean white background, different elements, seasons and animals, where the common theme is colour. A visual narrative work in harmony with a short text, where children can relate colours, creatures, climates and elements. It is worth mentioning the illustrations elaborated as a collage, which awaken restlessness and stimulate the eye as well as curiosity. But the surprise it is at the end, where the book has a little mirror so that children can describe what colors they see in their little eyes. We invite you to open your beautiful eyes and start reading!
