This literature review article aims to identify studies that have been done on the development of community tourism in some countries of Latin America and determine what has been the contribution to improving the quality of life of the communities that have been advanced; this in order to build a framework based on the draft of the ongoing investigation GIRSA assigned to interagency group whose purpose is to promote community tourism as an engine of development for the consolidation of the tourist destinations in the towns of Ciudad Bolivar Usme (rural area) in Bogota . In this sense, the consulted references are to research and developed projects in rural contexts, public organizations, private sector and academia, including from the period from 2006 to 2015 in some Latin American countries

This analysis is based on an investigation by the effects of armed conflict has brought about educational communities across the country and how it has affected school life; work in the Educational Institution November 29 in the path Nueva Colonia, municipality of Turbo in Urabá during 2015 from interviews, surveys and workshops with members of the educational community. Under the Colombian armed conflict, analyze the effects on the educational service for the purpose of war is relevant because it is a form of symbolic reparations to the victims as well as being a contribution of scholars of education to the issue of post-conflict. The work can identify the type of damages suffered by the families of students of the institution, the conditions for exercising the right to education, to finally propose alternatives to the educational community spaces where they can settle a culture for forgiveness, reconciliation and respect for rights. This analysis is based largely on studies on victims have been in the country; dabbling in reflection on the affected populations in educational settings crossed by conflicts and violence, to question not only about the effects, but also the possibilities that institutions have to work for a culture of peace.

The following article presents an historical analysis about the creation and the first fifteen years of history of two archeological museums in Bogotá: The Archaeological National Museum, founded in 1938, and the Gold Museum, whose collection started in 1939. Based on the inquiry of how these two museums were built, and their ways of seeing, valuating and exhibiting what it was considered archeological patrimony in that time, we pretend to understand that recent past we inherit directly, and also gain a point of view that allow us to consider the ways those vestiges are exhibit today, within a critical perspective.

This paper explores and compares Jacques Rancière’s and Nelly Richard’s theories on the relationship between art and politics from the perspective of post-foundational thought. We reflect and analyze avant-garde or critical artistic expressions from Latin America in dialogue with both theories. Therefore, we first provide an overview of Rancière’s and Richard’s theories, focusing on the ideas that these authors have about politics and, specifically, their conceptualization of art and its relationship to politics. We also make an interpretation of artistic productions centered on their several connections with the political, regardless of their thematic content. We use the qualitative methodology with a transdiciplinary perspective, which articulates different fields of knowledge (philosophy, politics, sociology, art history). In the case of Jacques Rancière, we draw on metropolitan theoretical tools in order to relocate and rethink his developments in relation to Latin American art. In this regard, our discussion aims at enriching his ideas in the analysis of local cases. As for Nelly Richard, we link her concepts of critical and avant-garde art with Latin American art. Finally, we put forward a comparison where conceptual similarities and differences between Rancière and Richard are highlighted along with the analysis of cases so as to widen the analytical and interpretative framework combining present theories with studies of local artistic expressions

The intention of this publication, it is analyzes the historical process given during the dependence metropolis colony and of the colonial State. The investigation reveals the influence of the Kings Católicos and his social order, which stopped during the colony but his constant in force mentality. Bringing piggyback the colonial inheritance, the Creole elite received the Saxon liberalism, linking itself rapidly, with his wealth, agricultural and mining, on the world market. This elite, knowledgeable of the Jacobin riot they used his libertarian harangue without doing the economic and political changes that the French Revolution realized. The Creole, in addition, raised the race as emblem of civility and progress, and as a good example of implementation, we see it in the leaders of the nascent republic of The United States who avizorando the development of the capitalism, they promoted the Europeans’ emigration with all the facilities in order that they were surrounding vast territories. The neoliberalism gathers his idea of freedom, in the freedom of company, so, we all offer work and consume; this industrial Utopia and of profit, it is the new religion. Stocks on the theoretical frame and concepts argued of Max Weber and with a methodology of comparative analysis there take the reflections of several authors who strengthen the hypothesis “that the market and freedoms decide the human and natural luck, it will go to an end of fright, so, the man forgot his house and the time that needed the life to grow and to progress; he ignored that it is easier than all the souls go to the sky that to answer the happiness of the rich one for seven billion beings”.The imaginary one of progress treats itself, so, in this analysis of deconstruir; to highlight that the man and the company was born in natural harmony; respecting the cycles natural and connected to the environmental way. Today one insists on the Utopia terrena or celestial forgetting the environmental crisis. Utopian and unnatural world, but the scene where the neoliberal model will operate up to the Day of Judgment.

From the standpoint of constitutive Rhetoric, this paper elaborates on Argentine president RaúlAlfonsín’s inaugural address in Congress (December 10th, 1983). Methodological tools from Rhetoric and Discourse Analysis work together in order to explain how this speech constitutes democracy after seven years of dictatorship (1976-1983), while performing a heterogeneous audience composed by different political and ideological positions into a plural and united democratic subject, bound together by civic ethics.

The literary production that flow in the newspapers of the provinces from Argentina during the end of the 19th Century and the beginning of 20th Century has been poorly studied in comparison with the literature from Buenos Aires and its zone of influence that was considered as the representative literature of Argentina. We verify this situation in the particular case of province of Tucumán: the scarce interest in the study of the feuilleton of the press and in its consideration as a literary product has made invisible this section for the critics. The present paper analyzes the contradictions in the literary critic about the newspaper serial as a place of literary production and reproduction in Tucumán in this epoch. In this paper we apply the theoretical and conceptual terms of the cultural sociology and intellectual history. The methodology of this study is to analyze the critical arguments about the existence of literary production in Tucumán in 19th Century. Our hypothesis is that exist a metropolitan center (in Buenos Aires) that establishes a literary canon, and that determines its validity for research. The position of the local researchers varies in time from a traditional attitude to the resistance.

This article analyzes one of the first Peruvian short stories that addresses the topic of internal armed conflict in Peru. I am referring to “Mateo Yucra” (1992) by Juan Pablo Heredia Ponce, where the fantastic is employed as a discursive artifact, which allows his author to take a stance about the harsh socio-political events that were occurring in Peru since the beginning of the decade of the 80s. Peruvian literary criticism has studied the narrative of the internal armed conflict from a merely realist viewpoint. However, these specialists seem to forget a series of important works (among them “Mateo Yucra”) that deal with the topic appealing to a contra factual element. My article pretends, departing from the study of Heredia Ponce short story and from the contributions of the theory of the fantastic (Ferreras, Molloy, Roas) and cultural criticism (Spivak, Butler, Agamben, Žižek) to think the notion of a socio-politically committed fantastic literature, cathegory that could be useful to study an important area of the narrative dealing with internal armed conflict in Peru.
