The Architecture of the Self offers a practical approach to life's problems. It is inspired by ancient Greek philosophy and its practical use in life.

The book draws a metaphorical house that represents the Self. It offers work tools for home maintenance, exercises that can be done daily to stay mentally fit, and interesting techniques with which you learn to cultivate a healthy relationship with yourself. The relationship with the Being is the relationship with that house: we build it, we maintain it, we clean it, we order it or we neglect it and leave it in disorder. For those who wish to become architects of their own home, this is a must read.


Rich with examples and stories from both professional experience and personal life, The Architecture of the Self is a practical guide to self-understanding and development, bringing ancient wisdom to the contemporary reader seeking meaning in life. Since we live in an ever-changing environment with technological advancements progressing daily, this book is meant to take the reader to a different feeling: a sense of practical work on the Self that does not promise to be quick and easy to fix. solutions. Rather, it is intended to introduce a slow-paced experience that will keep the reader returning to the book multiple times, whenever they feel the need for inspiration, motivation, or practical wisdom.


If one wishes to learn to deal with Being, one needs to learn to think and act philosophically. This is precisely what The Architecture of the Self offers the reader.

Building the nation without looking back, Silence and oblivion as political strategies in Colombia.

Countries like Colombia have the virtue or misfortune of standing in the face of the fierce and systematic attack carried out by violence, a scourge that has been embedded in the history of these States from their very origins. Despite being aware of its existence, since we are victims of it day after day, we Colombians have not been able to know exactly what its triggers are and, even less, find a solution that allows us to break the barriers once and for all. chains that bind us to this endless cycle of death, poverty, injustice and inequality. Building the nation without looking back, silence and oblivion as political strategies in Colombia is a work that presents the way in which the phenomenon of violence has been interpreted by the entire Colombian society, taking as a point of reference one of the darkest chapters in the history of this country: the period of La Violencia. Through a thorough documentary review exercise, the author will seek to reveal how the story of violence in Colombia in the first half of the 20th century was constructed, the memory that was formed from this story, as well as the actors and interests that were at stake, using the category of memory as discursive action. This type of work is relevant to the extent that it helps us observe the current problems that afflict us as a society with a more reflective, deeper perspective, which is acquired by exposing our eyes to the light of the past.
