The Tenth Edition offers alternative perspectives on classic topics in International Relations and Political Science. The first article explores a series of stages and processes in the transition to veganism as a matter of conviction. Next, the relationship between man, body, and identity is examined as part of an analytical proposal on masculinities. This is followed by an analysis of the impact of the Ecuador-Spain Debt Conversion Program on education and scientific research. The fourth article in this edition questions the prevailing strategies used to address the war on drugs. Finally, feminist pedagogy is introduced as a potential solution to address inequalities in education.
