Katz Editores presents to his readers in the first half of 2006. Born with the aim of contributing to broadening the horizons of knowledge available in Spanish language, but also with the conviction that it is necessary to put in crisis many of the ideas that organize the visions of the contemporary world , this editorial is conceived as a space for dialogue between different intellectual and academic cultures, between varied and pluralistic traditions of thought , and as a site of critical exchanges and encounters and crossings between disciplines , modes and styles of learning. With that spirit and will, their titles covering varied terrain . Political science , sociology , philosophy , history , cultural studies , philosophy of law, and science communication are present here , in the works of authors for the fundamental understanding of our time : Karl Löwith , Jürgen Habermas, Michael Walzer , Roger Chartier, Claus offe, Martha Nussbaum, Seyla Benhabib , Cass Sunstein , Harry Frankfurt, Leo Strauss, Norbert Bolz , Michel de Certeau, Roberto Esposito , Ernst Mayr, Cornelius Castoriadis , Hans Belting, Robert Laughlin, Eric Kandel , among other . Katz Editores proposed, also , to provide readers with careful translations , faithful to the original as much as the Spanish , and make edits of high quality, appropriate to works which, by their nature , are to be useful for many years. An editorial in short , thought -oriented , to use the distinction introduced by Octavio Paz , citizens rather than consumers.
