This book explores the essential foundations of scientific research, addressing its definition, approaches, and the role of science in generating valid and reliable knowledge. It highlights research as a complex and methodical process that seeks to understand, explain, and solve problems, transforming reality through the production of knowledge. The text delves into quantitative, qualitative, and mixed approaches, describing their characteristics, stages, and applications. The quantitative approach is oriented toward objective measurement and statistical analysis, seeking to generalize results. On the other hand, the qualitative approach focuses on a deep understanding of contextualized phenomena, capturing meanings and subjective experiences. The mixed approach integrates both, offering a more complete and holistic view. Specific methodological designs are also detailed, such as experimental, quasi-experimental, and non-experimental, as well as qualitative (case study, phenomenological, ethnographic, and grounded theory). A fundamental pillar is the research problem statement, which defines the object of study, its justification, and the questions to be answered. The importance of delimiting the topic in geographical, temporal, and population terms is emphasized. Finally, the document addresses ethics in research, emphasizing respect for participants, scientific honesty, and social responsibility. In addition, the formal elements of the scientific report, such as the abstract, introduction, and correct citation, which are crucial for the communication and validation of knowledge, are highlighted.

From Waste to Resources. Utilization of Oil Palm Sludge

2025-07-30T20:57:58+00:00

This book presents a study analyzing how temperature and drying time affect the nutritional value of palm sludge as an ingredient in livestock feed. Different combinations of heat and drying duration were evaluated, observing that these factors influence moisture and nutrients, especially proteins. The most efficient treatment was drying at 75°C for four hours, as it maintained a good balance between nutritional quality and costs. In addition, mixing the sludge with palm kernel cake improved its nutritional profile. Although it is viable for dairy cattle, its high fiber content limits its use in beef cattle. The research highlights the importance of controlling drying to take advantage of this by-product in the livestock industry.

Furthermore, there is a direct relationship between socio-formative processes and educational benchmarking and educational quality indicators. In conclusion, the practice of socio-formative processes and educational benchmarking, when adapted to the characteristics of the context, has a direct and significant influence on the quality of rural secondary education.

The Invisible Legacy. How Family Ties Determine Success in Business Succession

2025-06-23T22:50:47+00:00

Family businesses play a key role in the global economy, accounting for a large part of the business structure in countries around the world. Their continuity over generations depends, to a large extent, on good strategic planning. The objective has been to construct and statistically validate, through regression analysis, a model that examines how the quality of family relationships and the affective commitment of the successor influence the achievement of a successful succession. Surveys were conducted with predecessors and successors belonging to 381 family businesses in the non-manufacturing sector located in the department of Lambayeque. The validity and reliability of the measurement scales were verified using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, obtaining values above 0.7 in all cases. Likewise, the results showed that success in family business succession is strongly influenced by the quality of the affective relationship between predecessor and successor, rather than by a commitment based on obligation. A relationship based on respect, trust and communication encourages the voluntary involvement of the predecessor in the formation of the successor. Family models such as the democratic one strengthen affective commitment, while authoritarian styles limit the autonomous development of the successor. This leads to the conclusion that the transmission of leadership is more successful when there are healthy family ties from childhood. Normative commitment, on the other hand, does not significantly favor succession success.

2025-07-22T14:34:14+00:00

Scientific research constitutes a fundamental basis for the advancement of knowledge; however, its quality and replicability depend critically on the use of rigorous and accessible methodologies. A lack of comprehensive understanding of research processes—from design to dissemination—limits the social impact of findings and perpetuates gaps between theory and practice. This text aims to provide a structured and practical guide for conducting scientific research, integrating quantitative, qualitative, and mixed approaches, with an emphasis on education, social sciences and humanities, natural sciences, formal sciences, and engineering and technology. Through a sequential analysis—problem formulation, literature review, data collection and analysis, interpretation of results, and communication—an adaptable methodological framework is developed, illustrated with case studies and visual tools such as diagrams, tables, and workflows. The findings highlight the importance of methodological triangulation for validating results, ethical data management, and the articulation between acade

mic dissemination and public outreach. The central conclusion emphasizes that research excellence is not based solely on technical precision, but on the capacity to generate actionable, ethical, and contextualized knowledge that addresses global needs and fosters an inclusive scientific culture. This comprehensive approach positions methodology as a bridge between intellectual curiosity and social transformation, essential for training critical researchers and addressing complex challenges in the twenty-first century.

Talking Graphs. A new way to learn Analytic Geometry

2025-06-23T22:49:55+00:00

At the Universidad Nacional de Piura, many students face difficulties in passing mathematics courses, especially Analytic Geometry. The high failure rates reflect a complex problem: some students arrive without a solid foundation, others are demotivated by traditional teaching methods, and teachers, with overloaded classrooms, have little room to innovate. This situation not only affects academic performance, but can also lead to students dropping out of school. Faced with this challenge, a proposal arises: to integrate digital tools such as GeoGebra to transform learning. This software allows visualizing abstract concepts, such as the hyperbola, in a dynamic way, connecting formulas with graphics and mathematical language. Can this strategy improve the understanding and communication of mathematical ideas? This book explores that possibility, combining pedagogical theory with applied practical experience with economics students, seeking new ways to make mathematics less intimidating and more accessible.

Who gains from flower exports in Ecuador? Plant varieties, innovation and international trade

2025-06-18T23:28:23+00:00

Agricultural innovation is a fundamental pillar for the economic growth of nations, especially in developing countries. Therefore, in the Ecuadorian flower sector, plant varieties represent a strategic factor for diversifying the productive offer and strengthening competitiveness in international markets. Under this premise, the purpose of this book is to evaluate the effect of plant varieties on Ecuadorian rose exports during the period 2007-2021, providing information for a diagnosis of innovation in Ecuador. A descriptive analysis reveals a structural asymmetry in the scientific-technological development of the sector, reflected in the predominance of foreign varieties. Subsequently, the statistical study shows fluctuating trends in plant varieties and exports. Finally, the multiple linear regression model corroborates that there are factors that significantly influence rose exports, such as varieties from Germany and Ecuadorian R&D expenditure. These findings lead to the conclusion that the floriculture sector is dependent on foreign knowledge, a circumstance that limits the development of its own innovative capabilities. In this context, the hegemonic sui generis system of Plant Breeders’ Rights acts as a control mechanism for the benefit of the creation of monopolies that condition the competitiveness of emerging economies. Against this backdrop, the research offers academics, businessmen and public policy makers a critical vision to overcome technological dependence in strategic sectors, strengthen innovation ecosystems and move towards a knowledge economy.

An interdisciplinary approach is proposed to address these challenges, suggesting that proper human capital management requires not only fair and transparent policies, but also a commitment to continuous training and professional development of staff. The book seeks to contribute to the debate on how to balance meritocracy, labor regulations and personal relationships to improve management in public entities such as the IESS.

Professional identity in tutoring: absences, interactions, constructions and deconstructions.

2025-04-10T17:47:30+00:00

Considering tutoring as an extension of classroom activities, to develop activities integrated into the teaching-learning process, should be a key element that defines the direction of the change that is intended to give to university education at the Metropolitan Polytechnic University of Hidalgo, suggesting this because, although it is often stated that tutoring is another section of teaching, reality shows that intentions do not always correspond with reality and that in practice clear distinctions are established between both activities, so that in the case of teachers they act in a specific way, which allows them to build their scientific and daily knowledge, in this case about the tutorial action and everything that entails the development of this from the conception that the student and the teacher involved in it have, to the training, functions and actions that are taken to implement it. The problem centers on the search for convergent points of view, common expectations, and shared understandings between teachers and students that enable better tutoring. Most of the studies analyzed tend to reflect differences of opinion and perspective, without attempting to find spaces for negotiation, and where there seems to be nothing but conflicting opinions. On the one hand, teachers refer to their students using stereotypes that their teaching practice and experience later confirm; on the other, students channel their anxiety and frustrated expectations toward the teacher who exercises a more powerful role in the teaching-learning process.

Artificial Intelligence and Education. The Role of the Chatbot in Autonomous Learning

2025-06-05T21:42:08+00:00

This book explores the transformative impact of chatbots in nursing education, demonstrating their effectiveness as a tool for developing autonomous learning. The research reveals that the implementation of these artificial intelligence systems generated significant improvements in the students' capabilities, evolving from initial levels of dependence to full autonomy in their educational process. The results show that chatbots not only strengthen self-learning, but also enhance essential skills such as self-regulation and metacognition. The study found that this technology favors the planning, monitoring and evaluation of one's own learning, in addition to developing the reflective capacity to identify errors and adjust strategies. These findings position chatbots as valuable educational resources that, when integrated into nursing education, prepare more competent and self-managing professionals. The work thus offers an innovative framework for the implementation of artificial intelligence in higher education, highlighting its potential to transform teaching-learning processes.

Against Positive Psychology. Althusserian and Lacanian critique of neoliberal psychology

2025-03-25T20:15:33+00:00

This book aims to elucidate the relationship between psychology and neoliberal capitalism. The fundamental assumption is the existence of a neoliberal turn in psychology, whose paradigmatic form is Positive Psychology. This work draws upon the theoretical horizons of Marxism and psychoanalysis, particularly althusserian Marxism and Lacanian psychoanalysis. After describing the historical, economic, political, and subjective characteristics of neoliberal capitalism, a symptomatic reading is proposed to analyze the discourse of Positive Psychology. This reading reveals the structural origin of this psychology and its ideological functions, leading to the deduction that Positive Psychology is an over-determined effect of the neoliberal capitalist structure. The structural truth of psychology is emphasized, followed by a reappraisal of the anti-psychological theories of the subject inherited from Marx and Freud, and later taken up by Lacan and Althusser, as critical tools to resist psychologization and capitalist ideology.

Economy of Traditions. Diagnosis and Strategies for Cultural Enterprises

2025-04-10T17:42:37+00:00

At present, cultural business units have a greater presence in national and international markets, increasing the volume of products that are the object of economic transactions. In this context, this study aims to analyze how the business development process of cultural enterprises is presented and based on this, to formulate strategic plans that seek their economic and social strengthening. The following elements stand out in the daily life of this sector: the importance of obtaining financial resources, the cultural vocation of the entrepreneurs, the passion for entrepreneurship, the lack of knowledge of the sources of governmental support, among others. It should be noted that this form of entrepreneurship becomes a different alternative where not only profit is sought as in the capitalist system, but also the desire to highlight the customs and traditions of each region.

The importance of out-of-court conciliation in access to the judiciary

2025-02-06T00:11:02+00:00

When a Conciliation process begins, the Conciliation Center appoints a conciliator responsible for the process, who then invites the parties to a Single Conciliation Hearing, setting the date and time for it. On many occasions, one of the parties does not attend, due to a lack of knowledge of the benefits of the process. This fact has caused concern among the various centers and especially among the conciliators, since they mention that their advisors advise them not to attend. Those who work as Extrajudicial Conciliators cannot be oblivious to this concern, and this generates an urgent need to carry out this work. In this way, we can contribute from our “battle post” to the dissemination of conciliation and ensure that those invited to conciliate and the general public know the importance of conciliation, avoiding in some way the constant absences of the parties to the hearings. The reasons given above lead to clearing up the uncertainty that has become the ignorance of potential users of the conciliation route; but fundamentally, to exhort those legal professionals who are, by nature, the first advisors of potential users of conciliation; to recognize that conciliation is not only a requirement for admissibility, but also a mechanism for resolving disputes. Therefore, it is obliged to effectively and broadly inform about the virtues and deficiencies of all those mechanisms with which a conflict can be resolved without resorting to judicial means. In this way, users will be able to decide on the mechanism they consider appropriate.

Effect of the implementation of an occupational health software: case of organization of companies in the health sector

The workers, surveyed during the process, highlighted the slowness of traditional methods, evidencing the need for change. After the application of the software, the results showed a significant improvement in the efficiency and organization of the services. This experience not only highlights the importance of integrating digital tools in companies, but also how they can enhance both productivity and care of workers, marking a before and after in the management of occupational health.

Between competence and preferences. Yacon in the diabetic diet

2025-02-05T17:37:25+00:00

This book explores the consumption of natural products, focusing on yacon as an option for the treatment of diabetes. Despite its benefits, yacon is consumed mainly because of recommendations from family and friends, and not because of its recognition in the market. The aim is to understand what factors affect its positioning among diabetics in Piura. Using a mixed approach, competing products and consumer preferences were identified. The findings reveal that the profile of consumers, who are mostly male, professionally educated and engaged in various occupations, does not significantly influence how yacon is perceived. In contrast, radish, turmeric and turnip negatively affect its positioning. Ultimately, the results do not validate the initial model proposed to understand these dynamics in the diabetic market.

From a critical and legal perspective, the problems arising from current advertising methods that are far from new technological trends are developed, which contributes to unnecessary procedural delay, the nullity of auctions, which negatively impacts procedural speed. The work highlights the importance of effective publicity as a necessary input to guarantee transparency and participation in judicial auctions, and also identifies the limitations of the current regulatory framework, which frequently result in frustration of auctions or procedural annulments. In addition, a comparative analysis is carried out with legal systems in Spain, Argentina and Colombia, presenting proposals to improve Peruvian regulations and reduce execution times. The methodology used combines doctrinal and regulatory analysis with an empirical approach that includes case studies and recent statistics, allowing the impact of legal provisions on procedural speed and effectiveness to be evaluated. Likewise, a specific reform proposal is made to the Peruvian regulatory framework to optimize the use of advertising in judicial auctions, thus seeking to guarantee a balance between transparency, access and speed. This book is an essential resource for jurists, legislators and legal operators interested in modernizing enforcement processes and promoting a more efficient and fair judicial system.

Socioeconomic factors and accessibility to mental health services in Ecuador

2024-10-23T17:51:23+00:00

People living in precarious conditions or in vulnerable situations face a greater risk of developing mental disorders. Limited access to mental health services, due to socioeconomic barriers, exacerbates this situation. Improving living conditions and ensuring equitable access to mental health care is crucial for reducing the prevalence of these disorders. The current context, marked by economic crises, social issues, and increasing uncertainty, raises the prevalence of mental disorders, making the study of access to mental health services necessary. This study aims to analyze how various socioeconomic factors influence access to mental health services. A mixed-methods approach is used, employing descriptive, correlational, and explanatory statistics to gain a comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon. The research is based on a sample of 24,683 individuals from the National Survey of Health and Nutrition (ENSANUT), addressing variables such as area of residence, gender, age, ethnicity, marital status, education level, employment, and psychological issues. Through bivariate correlation and binary logistic regression using Wald's backward method, a significant relationship was identified between socioeconomic status and access to mental health care. Individuals with lower socioeconomic status are less likely to access mental health services and have a higher prevalence of psychological issues compared to those with higher socioeconomic status. This inequity has serious implications for mental health and overall well-being, highlighting the need for public policies that address the identified barriers.

Theoretical-methodological model for the study of subjectivity in university students

2024-04-02T18:31:35+00:00

Starting from the premise that both subjectivity and objectivity are not only part of the same reality, but that one cannot be understood or explained without the other, this book presents an approach to the study of subjectivity, particularly in university students. To this end, the training of university students from a perspective of subjectivity is based on a series of arguments and reflections that allow contextualizing, from a sociocultural position, features of subjectivity such as emotions, values, ethics and gender equity. Subsequently, theoretical-conceptual positions on subjectivity and objectivity are reviewed, seen even in an antagonistic way by a sector of specialists, but also and primarily, it focuses on a relational perspective, even dialectical between them, it is in this context that Bourdieu's theory of the economics of social practices is recovered as an articulating axis for the integration of a theoretical-methodological model of approach to the study of the subjectivity. This model integrates, on the one hand, a comparative perspective, as well as quantitative techniques such as multivariate analysis, but also recovers qualitative techniques such as interviews and interpretative frameworks; In this way, it is recognized that objectivity based on the objective sense together with subjectivity conceptualized through the sense of what is lived are elements that allow us to address the social practices of the agents. In this way, by integrating both positions, the sociological and the comparative method, mediated by multivariate analysis techniques, they facilitate an articulation that, in the researcher's view, represents a possibility of constructing the data in that object of study where spatio-temporality plays a relevant role. In this context, the theoretical-methodological model presented here is an alternative for the researcher who sees the need to better articulate the theory on which his research is based and the method he has selected, especially when the theoretical bet has a dynamic, relational character and with a strong link with the spatio-temporality of the object itself.

Commercial chitosan biopolymer. Impact on the removal of heavy metals in rivers

2023-12-12T04:33:40+00:00

Commercial chitosan biopolymer has been used for heavy metal adsorption treatment at the Rmoch6 monitoring point of the Moche River. This alternative approach uses crustacean shell waste, abundant in the region of Sechura, Piura in Peru. Chitosan becomes a biodegradable raw material that removes heavy metals from the water of the Moche River, used for agriculture and animal consumption, preventing them from causing direct or indirect damage to our organism. In the research, the capacity of a commercial chitosan biopolymer to remove heavy metals from the Moche River was analyzed. The results showed that the concentrations of metals and water quality parameters exceeded the standards, but treatment with chitosan reduced the concentrations of heavy metals. The amount of chitosan and the optimum contact time for the removal of aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead and zinc were determined by the test. In addition, it was found that natural zeolite and Gis-NaP have better arsenic and lead removal, while nano bentonite is better in iron and zinc removal.

Interculturality and everyday speech in Cajamarca. Sociocultural practices

2023-09-22T01:04:45+00:00

Human ethology has developed through processes in which language, speech, or any form of communication has served as a link. Additionally, the context has been a detailed argument to judge humans within their geographical space, such as Cajamarca, and the concept of mestizaje as a cultural manifestation. Not to be overlooked is the idea that it is an “Andean fortress” with distinct features and an emphasis on identity. The book consists of two chapters, both delving into diverse content with a sociolinguistic approach to “knowing how to speak” and the cultural process through play as an inherent part of human development. The second chapter focuses on the analysis of Quechua terms and their process of becoming integrated into Spanish across all districts of the Cajamarca region. This involves assessing acculturation, transculturation, and hybridization as human actions and social products. Both play and language represent the iconic situation of the title: “Interculturality and Everyday Speech in Cajamarca,” which directly addresses the very unique state of humanity in its “knowing how to be” and “knowing how to do.” The significant practice of toponymy is also presented as part of Cajamarca's cultural identity, demonstrating how the social process becomes a discreet and enduring construction. Finally, it concludes with a glossary of Quechua terms that still noticeably persist in the “knowing how to speak.”

Vinasse. Evaluation of its impact on a crop field

2023-09-22T00:53:27+00:00

The application of vinasse on clay soils can be highly beneficial for potassium content, as demonstrated in this research. Two different doses of vinasse (0, 100, 200 and 300 m3/ha/year) were evaluated, and it was found that potassium content increased, especially in the surface layers of 0-250 mm and 250-500 mm depth. In addition, the application of vinasse at increasing doses of 30, 60, 90, 120 and 220 m³/ha increased the available potassium and manganese of the soil at a depth of 0-30 cm. The use of vinasse as a source of nutrients in sugarcane cultivation is a viable alternative in alcohol and sugar production systems, which reduces problems of contamination of water bodies, replaces mineral fertilization as a source of K for sugarcane and reduces the cost of production per ton of sugarcane. However, it is important to keep in mind that overdosing in very sandy soils or soils with near-surface nappes can cause leaching of nitrates and chlorides along with potassium into the groundwater. Fertigation with vinasse can increase the productivity of sugarcane fields and contributes to essential nutrient recycling.

Organizational strategy and archetypes. An epistemological and bibliometric approach

2023-10-04T23:22:07+00:00

Organizational strategy is of special importance in the new business approaches and in the administrative management processes, so its study at academic and business level is constantly increasing. Finding the right strategy becomes a crossroads when the environment is volatile and uncertain, due to changing customer needs, consumer conditions, competition, among other aspects. This is why formulating a strategy that meets the conditions of viability and feasibility is a challenge for organizations. Globally, most companies seek alternatives to remain a "going concern", so the diversity of approaches and empirical methods trigger different results in the same context. Internally, it is easy for organizations to make mistakes, so managers must constantly monitor the progress of their structures and strategies to achieve efficiency, effectiveness and productivity. For decades, the unification of the academic and research fields has provided organizations with components that allow them to obtain an adequate strategic direction. Environmental perspectives and effective recommendations contribute to decision making and therefore to the achievement of objectives, however, these actions are not adapted by all, most organizations do not delimit their actions or objectively assess their effects, which is an impediment to organizational development.

Colonialism, community and capital. Thinking dispossession, thinking Latin America

2022-10-06T18:10:10+00:00

This book brings together a series of texts that analyze the intersections between colonial legacies, the multiple forms of capitalist dispossession and the responses of different community-popular experiences in Latin America.
We believe that the deepening of neoliberal capitalism, which is currently being allowed to fall upon the unresolved tensions of the State and society dialectic in our America, is marked by the historical persistence of diverse modalities of colonialism that continue to operate. Faced with this, part of the subjects affected by the consequences of capitalist plunder and its colonial logic have reacted strongly, and from their own organizational traditions, are disrupting the conventional sense of political participation in Latin America.
Given the need to understand our America, each of the texts in this book seeks to contribute with analytical keys that allow us to go beyond the conceptual binomial of dispossession and resistance to understand the complexity of their intertwining, tensions and forms of resolution.
With this we want to contribute to the academy and to the community and popular movements with which we work and are part of, with ideas and approaches that can be useful to analyze some of the underlying intersections between community, colonialism and capital. In doing so, we want to contribute to understanding their deployment on a continental scale without losing sight of the specificity of the forms and responses that have been articulated from diverse political experiences in the last three decades.

Systemic Model for the Formulation of Improvement Plans in Regular Basic Education and Technical and Productive Education

2022-09-27T21:49:37+00:00

This text describes the procedure for the formulation of improvement plans in Regular Basic Education and Productive Technical Education Centers under a systemic approach. To strengthen these capacities, the IPEBA self-evaluation matrix has been implemented to obtain valuable information regarding the conditions our teachers have to self-evaluate and propose plans with this comprehensive approach. The program begins with a preliminary stage aimed at motivating the importance of self-evaluation and making institutional improvements within the framework of the educational accreditation process, and then applying the information gathering instruments to a sample of teachers, students, parents, and administrative personnel, The team analyzed them in each educational institution with the participation of its community, finding that the factors are in a level of little progress, hence some techniques were developed as matrices of causes, matrices of improvement plans that originate in a correlational pentagon that takes as factors: Support to teaching performance, Infrastructure and resources for learning, institutional direction, use of information, joint work with families and the community, which will finally serve as input for the formulation of improvement plans. Likewise, the dynamic team prioritizes the standards that are in the level of little progress, they make the respective compilation for the edition of the functional book "Improvement plans in EBR and CETPRO".

Stress and teachers' work performance at the Emblematic School Cruz de Chalpón, Motupe - Lambayeque

2022-09-27T17:31:56+00:00

This book deals with "Stress and teaching performance in the emblematic school Cruz de Chalpón, Motupe - Lambayeque", it seeks to determine the influence of stress on the performance of the teachers of the Emblematic School "Cruz de Chalpón" - Motupe. The study conducted is framed within the mixed research approach, i.e., qualitative and quantitative at the same time. Likewise, it belongs to the quasi-experimental type since it proposes an intervention plan to change a specific reality. In the process, there was a population of 47 teachers of the institution under study and, in turn, the same number of individuals was taken as a sample, taking into account the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results are presented through frequency tables and statistical graphs, processed in Microsoft Excel and SPSS software. Pearson's Convenience factor will be used for the presumption test.

Self-evaluation model at the Santo Toribio de Mogrovejo de Zaña - Lambayeque Educational Institution. A case study

2022-09-02T05:17:49+00:00

This book deals with the application of an educational quality self-evaluation model for the Santo Toribio de Mogrovejo Educational Institution - Zaña. This public educational institution is going through a series of problems that result in a low level of quality in the educational service, which makes it necessary to implement the improvement process for accreditation purposes, a situation that begins with self-evaluation; Even so, it must be recognized that there is a scenario of scarce progress in educational quality standards, the exclusion experienced by many students due to their cultural or social condition, and a punitive understanding of evaluation, still installed in the imaginary of teachers, considers it pertinent to specify the approaches that nurture self-evaluation around their particular understanding of educational quality, equity, inclusion and interculturality and evaluation. Among the chapters developed we have the school organization and the state of the art in relation to self-evaluation processes in the educational sector, the collection of qualitative and quantitative information, as well as the intervention process to develop teaching and management capacities from a systemic point of view.

Emerging properties in the object of study of organizations. The Case of Sociology of Organizations

2022-08-23T05:39:55+00:00

The book's content is the result of a reflection on the nature of sociology and organizational theory. Many of the approaches and ideas presented in it have already been expounded by us and by other authors. What is new is that faced with the search for a theoretical consolidation for the analysis of organizations, we propose new elements or emergent properties to their object of study, based on the theory of social systems and contributions from the new biology. Every object of study has a theory of society and a philosophy of science behind it. The artifacts or conceptual tools have a mutual relationship with their Object of Study; if the Object of Study of the Social Sciences is human beings and their interrelations, we are talking about living beings, which in turn respond to biological phenomena, which must be analyzed with theoretical tools (concepts, categories, premises) of biology, or complemented with biology. Current societies are characterized by the emergencies that arise in their midst, produced as a result of the changes of symmetry that are characteristic of complexity. Kadanoff (1991) mentions that emergence is the essential characteristic of complexity; it is the appearance of unexpected and unexplained structures and/or patterns in complex systems. These emergencies require transdisciplinary theoretical corpuses that can explain them. The theoretical proposal presented here seeks to contribute, in this sense, to the introduction of concepts such as social hypervariability, social genetics, and generational behavioral sequence mechanisms.

Theoretical and practical fundamentals in the area of communication

2022-08-23T05:14:45+00:00

The Communication area of Peruvian education is an area that covers initial, primary and secondary education, where the communication skills of students are developed so that they can communicate efficiently. In this line, the study aims to describe the development process of the Communication area, which begins with the contents, skills and competencies that are shown through the performance of the students, for which the pedagogical inputs are presented as the strategies for the acquisition of learning, the preparation of learning sessions, the learning experiences and the curricular content of the area. Communication between human beings is important since it allows human socialization, and education is the space for its study.

Praxis of higher education. A deontological perspective.

2022-06-24T02:23:26+00:00

The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between the educator's deontology and the professional formation of the students of the Faculty of Education of Pedro Ruiz Gallo University. It corresponds to descriptive-correlational research, the study sample was formed by students of the Faculty of Education, and the instrument used was the questionnaire. The information collected was processed through the SPSS computer program, and the reliability of the data was subjected to Cronbach's Alpha coefficient. To establish the relationship between the variables, it was analyzed through the Spearman correlation coefficient in each of the dimensions proposed in the work. The results led to determine: That there is a positive and significant relationship between the educator's deontology and the professional formation of the students of the Faculty of Education of the Pedro Ruiz Gallo University, the index of Spearman's correlation coefficient was = ,850 with a p-value = 0.000< α 0.05. The relationship between the educator's deontology and the professional formation of the students is of very good magnitude.

Scientific research. An epistemic, creative and intellectual adventure

2022-06-23T02:40:28+00:00

It is a reality that scientific research has become an intellectual challenge, both for training institutions and for practicing professionals, it is a proven reality that professional careers must assume as a transversal axis the study of scientific research as an essential part of training. The purpose is recognized in the need to provide a theoretical and methodological reference for the development of educational research. The theoretical systematization carried out allowed the approach of the topics and the understanding of the research process in a holistic, logical and transforming way. That is, to understand that the Methodology of Scientific Research is one, with its specificities according to the areas of knowledge; its transforming results and contributors to the enrichment of the concrete historical-social practice depend on the research logic with which the research process is developed, on the flexibility, commitment and the evaluative analyses that are carried out, from ethical positions and social and human commitment. Precisely, the scientific result must be in function of the creation of material or spiritual goods, it must be shared with the community of researchers, and not, for a determined group of interests, that many times feel more attacked than favored, it must be understood as a value of a concrete social historical moment, from integrationist and transforming conceptions, with inclusive approaches, of equity and social interaction that provides sustainable solutions with the purpose of solving socioeconomic, political, cultural and ecological problems.

Processes of text production

2022-06-08T23:31:55+00:00

The book develops the process of textual production considering some ideas that allow creative writing, hence the debate on the nature of information and how it allows or denies the possibility of writing academic texts. On the other hand, it is important to consider that it is about the analysis of information using two capacities whose sinergy is important because it is about the cognition that predisposes to writing. It is about the analysis of the word as an indivisible unit and its relationships with others within a discourse in which ideas emerge indistinctly. Both analysis and synthesis are two cognitive processes that are defined as their own categories to generate knowledge; that is, reading analytically implies writing from the same perspective. There are moments in which synthesis is the consequence or at the same time is the process as a starting point for writing, thus it can be considered that writing texts is the categorical symbiosis of analysis and synthesis respectively. In "Procesos de producción textual. Critical reading and writing for academic text creation" it is considered that analysis and synthesis are cognitive processes of high cognitive demand that associate common sense and the process of critical reading to create academic texts.

Philosophy and Educational Theory. An epistemological relationship

2022-03-27T01:15:49+00:00

In this work there are a series of epistemological elements (such as the problems of knowledge that the knowing subject faces when pretending to know any reality, the cognitive faculties with which he tries to solve them, the ontological principles that he uses for it, the philosophical assumptions in which it is located when doing the latter, among others) that allow exploring, describing, explaining, interpreting or understanding the relationship between philosophy and educational theory in such a way that it is understood why the mappings (the definition, the characteristics , the function, the purpose, the causes, the consequences, the elements, the classification, and others) that are carried out from the different psychological theories applied to education on some educational concepts (such as the goals of education, the concept of learning, the role of the teacher, the concept of student, motivation, teaching methodology, evaluation, among many more) s They are different and even contradictory between one theory and another. From a definition of the concept called with the term "philosophy", built for this purpose, the aforementioned epistemological elements are derived, which are used to establish the relationships between philosophy and educational theory, contemplating, for reasons of extension of this work, only the relationships between philosophy and two of the psychological theories that have most influenced educational work: behaviorism and humanism. The epistemological elements are related to each other and to the mapping of some educational concepts, in such a way that it is possible to conclude the epistemological dependence of educational theory on philosophy.

The Frankfurt School and the deconstruction of technical reason in Horkheimer, Marcuse and Fromm

2022-02-21T21:14:41+00:00

The present work aims to analyze the concept of reason in 20th century technological societies, based on three of the greatest representatives of the Frankfurt school: Horkheimer, Fromm and Marcuse, who carried out a critical theory based on the political, economic and philosophical bases. The Frankfurt school revalues the intellectual role created by capitalist instances; warns of the impossibility of a critical theory based on technoscience, since a subjective consciousness of an objective oppressive reality cannot be formed.

The Thinking Spirit. Engels on his bicentenary

2021-08-19T18:41:36+00:00

It is still insufficient the debate that has been opened around the value of the work left by Engels and little the revaluation of his work and his original contribution. This is the reason why the effort summarized in this book is of greater relevance.

The book is composed of five essays that present a renewed vision of our author; fresh views that update some aspects of the work of Friedrich Engels, issues that undoubtedly remain relevant and open ways to deepen the study of the contributions of the German revolutionary.

Sustainability and political economics of water in Morelos

2021-07-21T20:14:54+00:00

The subordination of global environmental policy to the Sustainable Development Goals present in the 2030 Agenda has produced various epistemological transfigurations and theoretical and methodological biases that make it difficult to conduct critical studies on water resources. Faced with this problem, this book seeks to move away from the sweetened perspective of the environmental crisis present in the dominant discourse of sustainable development; therefore, it starts from the critique of political economy and a counter-hegemonic perspective of sustainability to recognize that the water policy implemented in Mexico during neoliberalism has caused a complication of the economy and politics of water in the state of Morelos. In this book, we find a reconstruction of the complex puzzle that represents the power relations between the actors involved in the process of management, administration, and management of water resources in the state of Morelos. In addition, it exposes the implications of the bias in the official accounting of water availability carried out by the Mexican State during neoliberalism. This allows us to recognize, in the first place, the interests present in the relationship between individuals, communities, institutions, and social groups that have rights and responsibilities regarding water management in Morelos. And, secondly, it allows us to recognize a reality that is illustrative of the entire Mexican territory, as well as of Latin America as a whole; for throughout these territories, dispossession and plundering have been experienced as part of the development of contemporary capitalism.
