Seguridad
nacional: condiciones de posibilidad, contenido semántico y finalidad.
Resumen: En este artículo se exponen y analizan algunas de las paradojas
intrínsecas del concepto de seguridad, particularmente la restricción
de ciertos derechos fundamentales con el fin de mantener la seguridad
de un Estado. En el primer apartado, se argumenta que el discurso de la
seguridad nacional presupone dos estados afectivos de los ciudadanos
para poder ser efectivo, los cuales son inducidos por el propio Estado:
la ansiedad, producto de una crisis generalizada, y el miedo frente a un
enemigo real o...

This
article reflects upon the continuing historical denialism concerning
the Korean " comfort women " forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese
military during World War II. We argue that the refusal of the Japanese
government and others to squarely confront this wrong is made possible
through the exploitation of a différend in Jean-François Lyotard's sense
of the term. The différend arises from a complex set of social,
cultural, and legal sources, including patriarchal, colonial, and
nationalistic constructions of the wrong and its victims. We seek to
tentatively expose the nature of the...

The
paper seeks to demystify Nietzsche's concept of genealogy. Geneal-ogy
tells the story of historical origins in the form of a myth that is
betrayed from within, while readers have naively assumed it tells a
story that Nietzsche endors-es—whether of history or naturalized
origins. Looked at more closely, genealogy, I claim, tells the story of
human consciousness and its extraordinary fallibility. It relates the
conditions and limits of consciousness and how these are actively
avoided and forgotten, for the most part in vain. The lessons are these:
there is no human time before...

In
2014 the United Nations called for a ‘data revolution’ to address the
inadequate statistics available on developing countries (United Nations,
2014). Despite the resources put into evaluating the impact of the
MDGs, there is still some way to go even with regard to standard data
(Center for Global Development, 2014). Meanwhile, new alternatives to
government-produced statistics are emerging. Of the world’s 7 billion
mobile phones, 5.5 billion are in LMICs (figure 1), where 2.1 billion
people are also online (ITU, 2015a). The Internet of Things promises a
landscape of connected objects...

Abstract Stories told about violence, trauma, and loss inform knowledge of postconflict
societies. Stories have a context which is part of the story-teller’s life narrative.
Reasons for silences are varied. This article affirms the importance of telling and
listening to stories and notes the significance of silences within transitional justice’s
narratives. It does this in three ways. First, it outlines a critical narrative theory of
transitional justice which confirms the importance of narrative agency in telling or
withholding stories. Relatedly, it affirms the importance of story-telling...
