Resumen
The zombie has ceased to be the start of low-budget films and has become a scientific concept (biological, social, economic and techonological), a metaphor for the reflection of the varius social problems, in an entity that has gone from human to posthuman, until becoming an antisubject. The zombie causes fear in two directions: the first, to be devoured by it and, the second, to become one. Its ontological position places it between the subject and the object, breaking the dual models, regardless of gender, socioeconomic statu or geography, so it is the ideal metaphor for contemporany social analysis, where marxist, post cololinal and gender, post structuralist, postmodern, posthumanist theories can dialogue. From a theoretical approach, from anthropology, sociology and cinema, this essay ponder on the zombie outside the classical reductionist views, which have placed it as a marginal cultural product, intended to satisfy playful momento, contrary to this position, what is intended, rather, is to give a critical view of the zombie and its contemporary social interference.

Resumen
The present work approach the notions of autonomy, care and interdependence, as keys that allow us to reflect on professional practices in the field of disability. It is proposed to delve into possible senses, as well as convergences and tensions between these concepts. We postulate that to the extent that the concept of autonomy is reduced to that of independence, there is a risk of composing practices related to neoliberal capitalism. The latter understood not only as an economic system, but as a producer order of subjectivities around individualism, competition, consumerism, and the tearing of ties. In contrast, we propose to articulate autonomy and ethics of care. Care makes visible the affective networks and materials that sustain life. Far from a static and dichotomous categorization that classifies people as "independent" and "dependent," we postulate the need for care of all lives. In this way, it is in any case different flows of intensities in care needs. From the coupling between care and autonomy, we finalize this writing with the proposal of the concept of “interdependent autonomy”.

Resumen
British writer Bruce Chatwin (1940-1989) makes a compulsive collector the central axis of his novel Utz. Through that character, he reflects on the art world remembering his work at the auction house Sotheby´s. His experience there gave him the knowledge and look that would condition his life. He learnt to analyze a work of art, to describe it in just a few words and to value it in the market. All of it can be noticed in his writing style, in which he pursues the kind of the precision observed in cataloguers. He developed his own technique. Besides, he acquired a strong contact network around the world. He put his eyes on peculiar personalities that led to the creation of Utz, personification of all those art dealers and collectors that he met during his time as the head of the firm's Impressionist and Modern Art department. Moreover, his work at Sotheby´s awakened his eternal dilemma between possession, search for immortality and creation. This article examines how the author treats the above topics in his novel.

Resumen
The article discusses the phenomenology of love in the philosophy of Ortega, especially from his work of the mature period, Studies on Love (1939). Therefore, the writing is organized around five concepts that Ortega would describe an essential note to his idea of love: infatuation, delivery, choice, courtly love, and perfection. This reception of Ortega's phenomenology of love acquires greater clarity from the consideration of love as a mode of affectivity proposed, in turn, by Martin Heidegger's phenomenology. Ortega's Love, an aesthetic expression of his philosophy of vital reason, shows the Spanish thinker's concern to explain the love event from the synthesis between reason and life, precisely at the core of our circumstance. This species of phenomenology of love would reveal, to the end, the romantic hero as the only way of being that it could counteract the nihilism that the Spanish faced through his philosophy of life.

Resumen
Thought is understood from its expression through language. It allows communities to exchange information useful for their continuity. In this paper, components of this exchange process are analyzed both in their formal and critical implications, emphasizing the shift from being to thinking, from thinking to saying, and the dialogue between sayings, that finally results in a dialogue between persons, strengthening the social ties. However, the inner self of individuals also enters into this consideration.

Resumen
From discourses from philosophy, literary criticism, and the study of emotions, I explore images of immigrants, mainly Haitians, in the United States. I start from a textual corpus that is made up of two opinion articles and a story written by Edwidge Danticat: Trump Reopens an Old Wound for Haitians (2017), We Must not Forget Detained Migrant Children (2018a) y Without Inspection (2018b). My proposal involves the identification, schematization, and analysis of four characterizations that Danticat poses around immigrants: a) being beaten and rejected by presidents, US immigration centers, media, banks, filmmakers, music producers; b) agents and recipients of compassion; c) poor and exploited individuals, driven by the need to survive, and not by the imperative of performance, suggested by Han for the contemporary world of work (2012); d) invisible and non-existent entities in life, and blurred at the moment of their death.

Resumen
The concept of history in Vico came out around the search of the historical particularity of peoples' lives. The Enlightenment had mixed the linearity of the historical event with the moral notion of the perfection of human consciousness. Vico, based on the notion of the Providence, built a non-deterministic notion of history and civil orders. The central thesis of this paper is that, in Vico's perspective, civil affairs are understood from the human historicity which is concretized in political orders. This order, of course, is unstable because the bases of civilization cross the intersubjective thresholds of fear, shame, and embodiment. The potential return of barbarism, the same that perhaps was brewing before our eyes today, could mean a radical transformation of the civil order and a exposition to other human and political experiences. Vico's philosophy of history, present in his New Science, is a powerful tool that helps to understand the uncertainty that the West suffers in the face of time and under its civilizing history today.

Resumen
Latin American cross-regional migratory dynamics have been driven by economic, political, and humanitarian crisis, which has caused an increase in the migratory flow. In Colombia, according to official figures from the migration department, out of 1,825,687 Venezuelans, 43.8% have a regular migratory condition, meaning they have their international ID or a special migratory permit. In Costa Rica, 75% of the immigrants in the country come from Nicaragua, which shows that Nicaraguan immigration has stayed constant over the years. Due to the absence of data to understand the behavior of the phenomenon, based on a sentiment analysis approach, an exploration of posts and opinions from Twitter users in Costa Rica and Colombia on immigration was carried out from January 1st to July 31st, 2019. This study revealed that the main concern of the users of both countries is focused on the subcategories of human rights, security, and unemployment.

Resumen
I propose in this critical note to reintegrate the place of moral emotions in the space of reasons by establishing a conception of moral conscience as a high degree of consciousness following Hegel’s ideas on consciousness. The space is significantly enlarged by the emo-tions of empathy, guilt, shame and compassion, these emotions allow us to bring to cons-ciousness reflective control without jettisoning away negative emotions contrary to these, and, then, in such space we increase reflective control relative to our moral lives.
