Summary: WORK, OTHER FORMS OF REDUCING THE COMPLEXITIES: The case of Sense of work in an area of the North Coast of Colombia. MARLENY RESTREPO VALENCIA In this investigation I propogo analyzing the meanings that have been built in Monteria, a town on the Costa Caribae of Colombia, between two culturally different groups, "coastal" (inhabitants of this region) and "paisas" (the name it gives people from the department of Antioquia), which address the meanings set of experiences and experiences of people in this region. The relativization of the value of work, as shaft generator social life has been analyzed in recent tiempos.En effect noted that the emergence of this concept is a recent one and is due to social conditions, economic and politícas of his time, so we can understand that the significance of the concept of work is complex and multifaceted, with significant buildings in the various different cultural groups. Consequently, the reflection on the significance that the work occupies in the lives of different groups, must pass through the distinctions cultural and historical changes that are framed in and epistemes different cultural context. Delas believe that a fundamental motivation of the natural and social research is to try to understand the world we inhabit and build, but also motivation and perhaps more importantly compredernos anosotros themselves, as individuals and possible social reasons for our buildings. The study of reality as construction of an observer enables understand that requires new ways of approaching social reality. In this sense, the construction of reality through the social imaginary. Part of the distinction between relevancias and opacities, and that reality is constructed from different perspectives is being produced by this distinction, creating a level of conomiento posed another which remains hidden, in other words, the imaginary social construct social realities through perceptions differentials qu individuals assume within the society as authentic. The role of the social imaginary, therefore, is to enable the identification dela perception dela constructed social reality, as actually existing. To carry out this research, I focused on analyzing thinking about the work that is transmitted through the works of the regional literature, we start considering literature and especially literature and especially the regional literature as cultural texts influence the re-construción belief images, values, norms as a basis for the construction of social reality. We are therefore interested in analyzing what (s) are the meanings of the work that communicate through this in a regional context is where two particular cultural groups with particular characteristics. This proceeded to select the work of a writer from each region, David Sanchez Juliao (in the department of Cordoba) and Thomas Carrasquilla (Antioquia), whose pjroduciones narratives had spread both nationally and internationally, even some of his stories and novels have been brought to television colombiana.Lo most characteristic of both authors is that their region has made the main theme of his literary productions. These narratives that focus on the inquiry, provide us with some elements of analysis with which the authors have built their vision and significance of the concept of work for some léctores, both at regional and at the level nacional.Cómo them and observe the distinctions to observe what is what analizarem 8 os is 282 t in research.

Summary: This research raises a multidisciplinary study involved a study of social movements, their impact on the political and technical aspects involved. The first part deals with technology issues: The first three chapters are a history of computing, telecommunications and networks, it needs to fully understand the technical environment in which they move successive generations of "hachers." The fourth is a study of the types of malware, their characteristics and historical evolution. The last chapter deals with cryptography, which are very important in the sociology of communication and analyzes existing systems and their characteristics. The second part is the cornerstone of this work, and recounts the history and evolution of these movements. The first dilemma that arises is what to include and which eliminates the movements are seen as involved in computer security. It applies the theory of Levy, who studied four generations of "hackers", which form the basis for this work. This theory raises the controversial role that took the first "hackers" of the Technological Institute of Masachussets and other second and third generation. The first overall MIT enters "hacker" and although was not a danger to the security of computers outside these resulted from computers at that time were rare, very expensive and only had such universities, state agencies and large companies . But it was also when they began to interconnect these groups in the first period while staged an incident of some gravity manipulating their computers. This work has included the "phreakers" and a fifth generation. The activities "phreakers" were the first to demonstrate the vulnerability of our society, so much so that the FBI had to intervene with punishment. When they started to distance connections between computers, "phreakers" becomes a technical assistant to allow "hackers" lower your phone bill, and finally it should be noted that when the telephone is converted to turn on computers, it lose the boundaries between "hacking" and "phreaking." Also included creators of viruses in this classification generation, as opposed to what has been stated by some authors who seem to decouple fully intends to "hackers" from the creators of viruses. There is talk of three generations and viruses, the first of which corresponds approximately to the fourth generation of "hackers" and others with the fifth. The second part of this thesis describes the move phreaker ", the first generation of" hackers ", the second, third and fourth generations, and detailing the current outlook for the fifth generation. It puts more emphasis on the fourth and fifth generations to be the most current. It examines the social, political and ethical and psychological consequences of these movements in the third part of the work, which concludes with the findings.

Summary: This thesis focuses on the relationship of two elements, consumption and the values professed by youth and introduces, as a variable between the two, the mass media. The thesis aims to demonstrate that the media shape a hombre-consumo, with values conducive to consumption. The thesis argues that the media can not create their own values. It raises the assumptions on consumerism as a reality flexible and adaptable to different cultures and their values, but it has intrinsic values that above impose these cultural differences in order to autopropagarse. The media, he says, selected from among all the values and value systems existing in society real certain values that are conducive to consumption. About consumption of these values are constructed or reconstructed models, model people, institutions and relations model models are presented as normal. The media promote the objectiveness. The investigation aims to ascertain to what extent people and relationships are presented as objects of value calculable, sopesable and consumables. Traditional values like friendship, solidarity and freedom are provided but after his redefinition so that no harm is done to the basic values of consumption. This thesis classifies young people according to their values, notes trends and even adventure certain assumptions about the origin and the relationship between them. Try to explain how the youth are compatible values that traditionally have always been opposed, on the sources of these on how it is translated into action. The author argues that consumerism was born in a historical situation and economic determined, and there is no disputing the fact that they were certain values that have led to its emergence.

Summary: The thesis attempts to analyze the concept as a traditional and classic in the field of Social Sciences, as is the concept of Gender and Sex, change and incorporates some different directions after the emergence of the Information Society, more specifically Cybersociety or social space born in the Internet network. The theory part of the theoretical description and monitoring how they have understood the concept of dual gender, along its conformation as an engine of social relations, as well as marker dela reality. It is confirmed as the dual gender has been and is a creation cultural-social, with a view to maintaining relations of inequality, a character based on biological, physical and very strong body. Those theories are analyzed to show a break with the equivalent dual: male identified as modified, cultural and technological, and the female, identified as natural far as technology, and therefore not modifiable. Women's position as the only naturally strong equivalence with biological, marked the development of the gestation of a concept very close to the genre, almost unbreakable and strong correlation between various concepts, such as sex, sexuality, corporalidad , genitalidad, sex roles, sexual orientation, role generic, generic identity, sexual identity. After considering the hypothesis of the feasibility of modifying the woman, escaped towards significance as a human being open to knowledge and the equation, you begin a study of the two leading feminist theories and develops show that the image of women in communication with the technology, the latter as an escape route or the immanence and situation of inequality, marginalization, as well as linking encasillamiento gender as a concept and entirely dual and single binary. The concept of Cyborg assumed in this thesis to the passage of which corresponds generally gender on the Web, in this first chapter had also integrated the concept of the body in cybersociety, and as this has a close relationship with the formation of the new generic subjects, or devoid of gender, which streamed across the network. It elaborates on what the image Cyborg has led to the latest wave of feminismos or postfeminismos, then return to the idea of the body in the development of Queer Theory, as well as the bulk analytical cibergeminismos. It was part of the consideration, in line theory, the birth of coberfeminismo, their assumption of departure, as a social movement, and social action and what the ciberfeminismo has contributed to the theory postgenérico, born in the same theoretical concept of Cyborg .

Summary: Study migration as one of the great problems of our time. It focuses on the migration of those fleeing violent situations, ethnic persecution and war. This research seeks to provide a scan from a sociological standpoint of forced migration that help their understanding and facilitating differentiation studies together. As complementary objectives attempt to define the field of forced migration, establishing differences and topologies beyond the usual account of the forced migration as the field of asylum and refuge, in the event that there are grounds for doing so, to determine its dimensions today's world; determine how deep their presence in human history in order to cope with the study of this prospect; rescue thoughts on the phenomenon of forced migration from the human point of view that we could have done historically, to describe and assessing the dominant model of forced migration in academia today and consider a position from the perspective of sociology; contribute to the extent possible to construct a theoretical framework can be provided from sociology understanding of this phenomenon and east future studies; make known the views academics who may be on the need to study the specific form of forced migration and publicize the main academic networks that develop this position. As ultimate goal seeks to offer an approach to the sociology of forced migration. The hypothesis suggests that the departure of forced migration is a social phenomenon long presence in human cultures, connecting with these social processes whose study from a sociological perspective is now a potential window to change and the evolution of a global society more apart from the states. This paper seeks to explore and check their content and wording. Develops research into three sections: one dedicated to the presentation of the concepts in a second part examines the temporal and spatial dimensions, as a historical exhibition of the migratory phenomenon, and thirdly develops the theory for a sociology migration. The author believes that the sociology of forced migration can be a contribution to a global sociology. The sociology has always been conditioned by the multivariate nature and dynamics of their subject. An object transnational said, as is the forced migration requires a method but also a theoretical framework appropriate to their nature if it intends understanding of the phenomenon. Migrations in general and forced migration in particular are among the most important expressions of global social processes underway and the sociological study of this phenomenon is, the author believes, one of the largest and most important contributions to the emergency required a sociology of global society.

Summary: This thesis explores a period of 23 calls election held in another 23 years in fields as varied as European, national, regional and municipal. These areas focus on different constituencies made up of Spain, Castilla y Leon, Avila. Apply techniques sociology electoral and social research by presenting and analyzing statistical data for each call and the whole, to shape political developments overall Spain, Castilla y Leon and Avila, defining the respective models. The study was completed with a series of tables, maps and graphs to synthesize and represent the main data, and attachments that include a summary of the results of each call in the villages abulenses, listing all the mayors of 248 municipalities in the province during the past 20 years, indicating the party membership and electoral profile of each municipality. As hypothesis raises the assertion that there are different electoral behavior among the three jurisdictions and different political models, results of long historical processes of ideological formation. The electoral model abulense is defined by a census population constantly declining, leading to ever-smaller corporations, and with a specific electoral behavior, which is characterized by its fidelity to individuals rather than parties, as for his strong support for the center-right majority options. In municipal elections, abulenses vote to people who already know, apart from that presented by a party other, or as independents. But happening at the same time that they were picked up by the rising political forces which, in this way, ensure victory even before the elections are held. From this approach, it seems that the parties most powerful are those who capture the largest number of candidates or those who have a higher number of lists, so that, in practice, parties with a significant advantage and with a good number of seats at the time closed nomination. In corporations the most noteworthy feature is the repetition of quite a few names or the formation of small "oligarchies" local politics, either because they are military parties, which again were victorious because they present them, either because they are people who are more in his municipality willing to hold municipal representation or the roles of municipal authority, it will be by personal interests, or less egocentric, either true vocation of service to its convecinos, which both are provided separately or jointly.

Summary: This thesis tries to raise awareness in greater depth a school of thought and a whole body of research that can be extremely useful even for the Spanish sociology, cultural studies because they had not developed the same way in Spain than in the United States or the UK. It aims to develop an intellectual history of the Center for Contemporay Culture Studies at Birmingham focused on his thinking but without forgetting its history everyday. This thesis is intended to provide the intellectual output of this center and not dealing with a history of institutional development of the research center. It is studying the contribution of the School of Birmingham in different specific areas such as youth subculture, the media, the culture of the working class, gender, race, and the state equation. All these fields benefit from the input of the center and its particular theoretical approach. This thesis asserts that the struggle for the achievement of Marxism open, away from the classical reductionism notions base-superestructura, has been a shaft and through the foundational work of the center. The answer to the degree of determination and response of the scheme set one of the axes methodological and theoretical work of the various members of the CCCS. It ensures that the media have been strongly influenced by the work of this center, especially because of its relevance that has given audiences as active entities, as opposed to the American functionalist theories. The School of Birmingham, argues in the claim, was the result of the relationship of its members with the environment where they lived, in this case the United Kingdom in general, and in particular the problem of the center of the country (Midlands). The format and agenda of the CCCS, in this regard, has been influenced by the environment in which it develops its activity. It is planned that the "raw material" for their social existence conditioned the work of CCCS. It maintains that the ethnographic research on the theoretical and subcultures represented a decisive step in the analysis culture of advanced industrial societies. There is also the notion of hegemony taken by Antonio Gramsci and that the concept of resistance played a key role in building cultural theory at the School of Birmingham. This scheme makes up a body which gives elasticity theoretical analysis Marxist culture and allows greater depth in the structure of significant contemporary social life.

Summary: Since the last decades of the twentieth century Spanish society, in general, and Alicante, in particular, has gone to pose as an immigrant society. At present, we are moving from a time when the labor market imposed its law and produced an effect call, which resulted in increased immigration and a noticeable shift in the geographical origin of the same, at a time when there is beginning a process enculturación of these immigrants, and have begun to raise the challenges of co-inclusión social relationship between native and immigrant, namely the challenges of ciudadenía and multiculturalism. Alicante has always been rather than inmigraciíon, destination for people from other places and cultures, which over time has been shaping its appearance, to the extent that can endure without exaggeration that much of the impetus and dynamism of Alicante and it has had to do with migratory movements on this province have taken place. Immigration is therefore an ongoing process over time, as economic and social importance passes inadvertivas most of the times, which was annulled by the vision exclusivimanete legal, if not police, which usually makes it overshadow aasí other prospects study much more important than often go unnoticed, but who nevertheless are truly important axis in his study and analysis. Certainly we can approach the phenomenon of immigration from many angles, which are all complementary, but through this work is done from understanding dela enormous capacity of social, cultural and economic life that immigration provides to society Alicante. To do so, the testimony of those involved in the immigration acts as a common thread in thinking about this social phenomenon on a large scale.

Summary: This thesis tries to understand and analyze the response offered by travel agents to the hypothetical changes introduced by the so-called information society. As part of the information society part of a hypothesis that this step involves an evolution in the social development can promote, among others, expansion of new markets, understanding the convergence of market demand and supply. The complaint follows the growth of new segments travelers from larger and more feasible access to information on different suppliers and tour operators. The offer is plausible expansion own technology sector, which boosts productivity and corporate information management. As part of the travel agencies, as agencies natas consumers and providers of business information and tourism, possible changes introduced by the information society can enhance, rather than harm, utility and functional capacity of these companies. Internet can be for the agencies a new virtual window informational and commercial international level, complementary to the witness. Although this new channel technology also links to tour provider, not only with the travel agency but also with the ultimate consumer travel, the travel agency may prevail as a filter technical guarantee for strengthening the security of the information or possible transaction.

Summary: This thesis is based on the premise of a collective identity in Navarre mediated by political rather than ethnic markers and lingüsticos. The ideology and culture are confronted and reproduced in the field of politics. Traffic policy approach in a broader sense and not restricted to his more formal and orthodox. Having Navarre political party linked to Basque nationalist forces representing roughly 20% of the electorate Navarre, wondered whether it was necessary to consider Navarre as subsystems political basque. The author believes that not. He believes that Navarre should and / or can analizares its own authority. Institutionally has no dependence or links with the Basque Autonomous Community, and nationalism with a basque uneven geographical distribution, representing a significant minority. In contrast, the region's Basque Country that divides roughly 50% between Basque nationalists and non-nationalists. The political situation vascongada has its influence on the political life of these parties Navarre, however, is not a sucursalimos very different from that presented the parties with respect to their state counterparts sections or Navarre. The strengthening of nationalism in Navarre has reason basque and endogenous expression beyond the organic link with parties vascongados. The vasquismo Navarre has expressionism policies, or more accurately non-partisan, which may or may not be Basque nationalists. Such is the case with the importance that the regional legal system is in the genesis of speech identity Navarre, which also explains itself, although matches Basque Country to maintain a singularity legal whose public expression is currently the best known of the two communities have an autonomous regime tax differential of ordinary autonomies. Taxation and language, among others, are the contact points between traditionalism and nationalism Navarre basque civil war, among other factors, blow. However, plant researcher, nationalism basque civil war, among other factors, blow. However, it raises the investigator, nationalism basque in Navarre is minority, and Navarre has not developed a successful nationalism itself. He believes that is not the product of a late industrialization and the emergence of a bourgeoisie style basque or Catalan. Neither considers key markers étnico-linguísticos. They defined a subculture more than a rural community. The reavlorización of rural real boom is not paid until the last decades of the twentieth century. During the political transition the conflict between identities was productive for generating the institutional framework for self-government in the debate on the throne foral, by shifting social conflict to political arena. It avoids aggression intracommunity through the parliamentary system as ritualización of violence.

Summary: This thesis explores not only the life of the author but their works and the complexity of their thoughts. It focuses especially on "social teachings" presenting the features of the book, its main thrust and the arguments for defining the concepts of Church and Christian groups used. This is an important contribution to the Sociology of Religion although theories and currents are changed in this regard and the divisions between Weber and Troeltsch not deemed the most current, but they are the starting point. The study of "Die Soziallehren" is made from three points of view: a literal translation to enable understanding delas findings, the approach to the history of antigà ¼ age allowing the Christian understanding of the social structures of the time of Jesus, and one Sociological Analysis of the three groups listed in Die Soziallehren. The term "group" appears repeatedly. Its purpose is to cover the various sects and mysticism - spiritualism. The work poses several challenges. The first is that the studies conducted in Spanish on the author and his work are very limited. There will always be a study of almost 60 works that show that the figure of Troeltsche is known among scholars of sociology dela religion, but if you are a little deeper this knowledge is very uneven. Predominantly a very basic information. Among the Spanish authors are very few who can speak knowingly of the work by this author. Some fall between theologians historicist, and almost always associated with Weber. The method of work done in this thesis is based on a survey of the sources in German, from its early editions, and discusses the developments to analyze the changes. The secondary sources are used various levels and have been written with differing degrees of intensity. They are a great help work on Troeltsch that are always well documented and constantly provide new data for the subsequent investigation, both in publications recording conducted by each of them, as for publications as a team. It is important and impressive those undertaken by each of them, as for publications as a team. It is important and impressive KGA that undoubtedly will be a compact source of material available to everyone to continue to study his life and works, which will facilitate the investigation by not having traveled to many library, archives, documentary and private homes looking for material and power to pursue the research. The author proposes some lines of inquiry. It says it is not easy working with the texts of Troeltsch, but anyone who is capable of working and writing in German Gothic has an inexhaustible source of work.

Summary: The thesis develops a theoretical methodological proposal to review specific cultural identification processes that occur in urban spaces capitalinos two Andean countries - Peru and Ecuador. The proposal goes to theoretical understanding of two realities, on the one hand, historical processes of domination on certain stocks, and also the place where the use of culture has gained in the integration of practices that attempt to break away from such situations domination. Equality as ideal as ethical and social practice, is a sociological problem as central to understanding the processes that have been installed to socio-culture-in his capacity not object but epistemological practice enunciativa- as political grammar of respect. The empirical work conducted in the period 2000-2002 in peripheral urban areas of Lima and Quito, deepens into everyday use of two concepts inequality: the first refers to the process as a civilizing horizon igualatorio, and Cultural Organization as degrees of achievement and civic behavior the second concept, establishing cultural diversity as a universal ethical horizon, and culture is understood in the quality differential, which designates and describes a peculiarity historically formed.

Summary: This investigation is the result of interest in knowing how far it was possible to establish a study of music from the sociological perspective, under deep vacuum that had always with respect to the study of music made and its social dimensions. The purpose of the investigation is not a definition of the music of postmodernism, or carry out a classification of music that exist in society, but set a common thread able to establish a state of sufficient understanding of the music that surrounds us . The sociological approach to the music as something very recently, was still in training and perhaps that is why it has not yet found enough consensus to their own definition. The objectives of this study are directed to the description, explanation and critical analysis of the functionality of the music in today's society. It takes as its starting point the development of musical studies prepared by the major sociologists, and seeks to establish the theoretical underpinnings necessary to narrow the field of study of the sociology of music. This research is organized into four units: a first section is intended to establish the theoretical framework of the sociology of music, paying attention to the study of the relationship between music and society, proposed by authors who have focused on the study of music. A second section examines the social dimensions of the music made at present. In this block analysis focuses on the study of the social dimension of music, giving it an active role within the postmodern culture. This second part focuses on the analysis of the four dimensions of the music that the author considers to be extremely important to know fern present music: the relationship between music and art, the role of music in culture, music as an element of communication, and the development of music consumption. Try to highlight the important relationship between music and the society in which we live, because the major developments in the style and message of the music being bounded by the characteristics of the society that creates, receives and interprets the fact music . From there looking for stable the current profile of the music develop a study to clarify both how to create, how to receive and interpret music. The investigation ends with the relevant conclusions, which is the third block, and a block library where the main references are grouped, written and electronic, used to develop research, in addition to a section where they are grouped key agencies, national and international, that currently dedicated to the study of music made. The author concludes that music can only be understood in a social context, in an interplay of individuals who give it a value and for creating a wide range of emotions inseparable from the social links. The music manifests itself as a summary of the cognitive processes of culture, and the outcome of their social interactions. The musical creativity be described, first of all, in terms of social, cultural and communicative.
