En este libro Luis Razeto aborda sistem�ticamente la cuesti�n del desarrollo, la transformaci�n y el perfeccionamiento de la econom�a, en un momento en que la humanidad enfrenta un conjunto de problemas gigantescos: incremento de la pobreza, desintegraci�n social, inseguridad creciente, deterioro del medio ambiente y de la calidad de vida, irracionalidad demogr�fica, urgencia de un nuevo orden mundial. Por su amplitud y concomitancia tales problemas ponen a la sociedad el desaf�o tal vez m�s grande y dif�cil de su historia, cual es encontrar una nueva concepci�n de la econom�a y de su desarrollo, e identificar los modos de practicarla con sabidur�a y eficiencia.La propuesta del autor se sustenta en la que denomina "una nueva estructura del conocimiento", que busca integrar lo f�ctico con lo val�rico, el ser y el deber ser, el an�lisis del pasado, la cr�tica del presente y la proyectaci�n del futuro. Una teor�a econ�mica que se establece en el �mbito de esta disciplina particular, pero que se entrelaza con otros saberes y se articula con diversos campos del conocimiento cient�fico, filos�fico y �tico.

Western civilization is the Utopia of a better and higher life on Earth. The globalization of neo-liberalism proves that this project has failed. The paradigm of «Critical Theory of Patriarchy» explains this failure and discusses alternatives. By confronting the central civilizations in history, the egalitarian, life-oriented matriarchal one, and the hierarchical, nature and life dominating, hostile patriarchal one, we see that 5000 years of patriarchy have «replaced» matriarchies and nature itself by a «progressive» counter-world of «capital». This transformation characterizes «capitalist patriarchy» including «socialism». Its demise is due to the «alchemical» destruction of the world's resources, thought of, theologically legitimized and fetishized as «creation». This violence is not recognized. Elites have, instead, begun with a new «military alchemy», treating the whole Planet as weapon of mass destruction. Hence, the «Planetary Movement for Mother Earth».

Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.

The idea of finding a 'third way' in politics has been widely discussed over recent months - not only in the UK, but in the US, Continental Europe and Latin America. But what is the third way? Supporters of the notion haven't been able to agree, and critics deny the possibility altogether. Anthony Giddens shows that developing a third way is not only a possibility but a necessity in modern politics.
