Las personas aprendemos, nos socializamos y nos educamos a través de las relaciones interpersonales que mantenemos con los otros en el marco de unos determinados contextos socioculturales, físicos y virtuales. ¿Cómo pueden hacer frente los profesionales de lo social y lo cultural a la incerteza e imprevisibilidad de dichas relaciones? Este libro analiza los principales elementos que intervienen en la relación socioeducativa, se cuestiona algunas de las ideas tradicionales sobre la acción e intervención socioeducativas y genera nuevos enfoques y perspectivas sobre la acción de los profesionales. Unos enfoques que les ayudarán a descubrir los límites y las oportunidades que caracterizan sus quehaceres profesionales, pero que, sobre todo, les proporcionarán nuevas herramientas teóricas y metodológicas para afrontar una tarea tan compleja como la de acompañar a las personas en las situaciones y problemáticas de su vida cotidiana.

Archaeological study of the emergence of the ethnohistorically documented Quijos chiefdoms in the eastern Ecuadorian Andes. This research evaluates links between the emergence of centralized leadership and the organization of agricultural production. The focus is on reconstructing the demographic history of 137 km2 based on a full coverage systematic survey, and on reconstructing patterns of food production and consumption based on analysis of pollen, phytoliths and plant macroremains from the excavation of 31 tests at locations representing different environmental settings and settlement types. The study proposes a sequence starting at about 600 B.C., with the first manifestations of a regional system of centralized authority appearing after about 500 A.D. Neither control of basic resources nor specialized craft production seem to have been important in the social and political dynamics of the emerging Quijos chiefdoms.

This volume explores problems related to processes of importation and adaptation of Western cultural and institutional models and their effects on social structures. Among these problems, those related to the permanence of reciprocity ties in official institutions and their correlates, such as clientelism and corruption, stand out. The book will appeal to social scientists concerned with analytical problems and theoretical advances in relation to the issues at hand, as well as the wider public concerned with the trends and results of the importation of Western models in the processes of transforming social structures, especially in “extra-Western” societies.
