Artificial Intelligence and Information Integrity in the Context of International Organizations
type: item
description: In recent years, the field of Artificial Intelligence has seen a surge in development, bringing numerous benefits to humanity. However, it has also introduced significant risks, such as the manipulation and alteration of information through AI, which can have catastrophic consequences. Therefore, this article analyzes the implications of AI for the right to information and its integrity, and identifies the positions and actions taken by international organizations to address these risks.

Geopolitics of Mobility; Migration, Labor, and Human Rights in the 21st century
type: item
description: This text examines how the historical patterns of reorganization within the capitalist world-system, marked by the displacement of the hegemonic center and financial expansion, have generated profound transformations in labor mobility and in the production of vulnerable populations. The hypothesis of the study argues that the current geopolitical reconfiguration, characterized by growing rivalry among major powers, the dominance of financial logic, and the strengthening of securitarian border policies, is intensifying dynamics of exclusion and exploitation that particularly affect migrants, weakening their rights and deepening their precariousness. The aim of the text is to analyze, from a historical and critical perspective, how contemporary migratory movements reflect the global crisis of the twenty-first century through new forms of control, segmentation, and violations of mobile labor. The findings show that these policies are not isolated phenomena but structural manifestations of an unequal international order.

From Global to Local: Local Nearshoring and Its Impact on the Competitiveness and Sustainability of MSMEs in the Commercial and Service Sectors of Puebla, Mexico
type: item
description: Local nearshoring has emerged as a relevant strategy for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in the commercial and service sectors of Puebla, enabling them to reorganize their supply chains through a combination of nearby and distant suppliers. However, limited empirical evidence exists on how these factors influence the competitiveness and sustainability of such firms. The objective of this research was to analyze the impact of local nearshoring factors—proximity logistics, trust-based local networks, proximity-based sustainability, adaptability and innovation, and the use of nearby and distant suppliers—on the competitiveness and sustainability of Puebla’s MSMEs. This study followed a quantitative approach with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and descriptive design. A structured Likert-scale questionnaire was administered to a non-probabilistic convenience sample of 80 MSMEs located in different areas of the municipality of Puebla. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics to identify the factors that best explain competitiveness (COP) and sustainability (SOS). Results show that MSMEs attribute high relevance to proximity logistics (M = 4.12), local trust networks (M = 4.25), and adaptability/innovation (M = 4.18), whereas the use of distant suppliers exhibited greater variability (M = 3.45). The findings conclude that local nearshoring is an effective strategy for strengthening the competitiveness and sustainability of MSMEs. This highlights the importance of territorial value chains, logistical resilience, and local coordination as essential mechanisms for promoting urban economic development.

The cyberstalking, an attack on human rights and freedom of expression
type: item
description: This article examines whether cyberstalking —systematic harassment through digital means— constitutes a violation of the human right to freedom of expression. It starts from the premise that, although it does not always imply a direct legal restriction, cyberharassment produces a chilling effect that limits participation in the public sphere and results in factual silencing, particularly affecting women, journalists, and human rights defenders. The research uses a dogmatic-legal and comparative approach, structured in four dimensions: a theoretical framework drawing on authors such as Alexy, Ferrajoli, Bobbio, Kelsen, and Sunstein; the analysis of national and international case law (SCJN, Inter-American Court of Human Rights, and European Court of Human Rights) which defines the scope of freedom of expression and protection against indirect censorship; a review of recent statistics (INEGI, Article 19, UN Women) showing a growing incidence of ciberstalking, with differentiated impacts in Puebla; and an international comparison with Spain, Argentina, Chile, the United States, and the European Union, which highlights different regulatory models. The findings indicate that cyberstalking undermines both the individual and collective dimensions of freedom of expression. While criminal responses are relevant, they are not sufficient: comprehensive strategies are required that include prevention, digital education, cooperation with technological platforms, full reparation for victims, and judicial training. The central conclusion is that cyberstalking does violate freedom of expression as it generates self-censorship and weakens democratic debate, which requires guarantee-based and multi-level responses.

The human right to peace from a gender perspective: keys to a transformative understanding of contemporary international conflicts
type: item
description: This article examines the evolution of the human right to peace from a structural perspective that goes beyond the mere absence of war and incorporates democratic institutions, social justice, and inclusive participation, highlighting the relevance of a gender perspective for understanding the differentiated impacts of conflicts on women, girls, and sexual and gender diversities. Drawing on a critical review of international legal frameworks and the Women, Peace and Security agenda, as well as an analysis of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the study identifies how predominant androcentric approaches render invisible specific vulnerabilities related to sexual violence, displacement, reproductive health, care work, and exclusion from peace negotiations. The findings show that liberal peace models may reproduce existing inequalities, whereas alternative approaches—such as hybrid peace and community-based strategies of women’s resilience—offer more suitable responses. Overall, the synthesis argues that the right to peace can only be consolidated through institutional and normative transformation that fully integrates a gender perspective as a prerequisite for an inclusive, just, and sustainable peace.

México y el Grupo de Visegrado: retos yoportunidades de cooperación en elcontexto del nuevo orden internacionaldel siglo XXI
type: item
description: Este artículo posee 3 objetivos fundamentales. El primero es analizar desde una perspectiva histórica como se creó el GV, debido a que en América dicha integración subregional que fue establecida en 1991 entre los países de Europa Central desgraciadamente es poco conocida 1. El segundo, es evaluar la importancia que tiene el GV en la UE. El tercero, analizar el estado actual de las relaciones que existen entre México y la Unión Europea (UE), y el cuarto y último objetivo, es el de indagar las relaciones que existen actualmente entre México y el GV. Cabe mencionar que dichas relaciones pueden profundizarse, debido al enorme potencial que existe entre México y el GV. Actualmente, México representa la decimoquinta economía más importante del mundo. Aunado a lo anterior, durante el 2023 México se convirtió en la economía más grande de Iberoamérica, superando a España, Portugal y al resto de las economías de América Latina, con excepción de Brasil. Asimismo, México representa la novena potencia exportadora del mundo. Por otro lado, México, Estados Unidos y Canadá son miembros del TMEC (anteriormente conocido como NAFTA). El T-MEC ha convertido a América del Norte en una de las regiones que poseen en una de las economías regionales más grandes del mundo, de manera conjunta con la UE y China. Finalmente, México es miembro del G-20 y uno de los socios más importantes de la UE en América. Asimismo, México representa actualmente el primer socio comercial de Hungría, la República Checa y la República Eslovaca en América Latina, el tercer socio comercial de Polonia después de Brasil y Argentina. Cabe mencionar que, aunque México es el tercer socio comercial de Polonia, es el principal mercado en América Latina para sus exportaciones. Por otro lado, los miembros del GV de manera conjunta representan la cuarta economía más importante de la UE y sus economías emergentes son muy atractivas para la IED principalmente de la UE, así como de otras economías del mundo, debido a su membr…

Representation and interpretation of the time in historical cartography.
type: item
description: This article explores the representation and interpretation of time in historical cartography, an aspect rarely addressed by theorists such as J. Brian Harley, who focused on the iconography and ideologies of space. A methodology is proposed to identify time in maps through literal elements (dates of production or publication), geographical elements (mountains, rivers), and non-geographical elements that refer to human activity. Inspired by Karl Schlögel, who asserts that maps possess a “historicity” by showing the emergence and disappearance of places, it is argued that maps not only reflect the present, but also make the past visible and project the future. Time on maps is shown on different scales: from really short periods, like the five days of the Battle of Ahualulco, where military movements are detailed by the hour, to “everyday life” and long-term stuff, like what's shown in Felipe II's Relaciones Geográficas, which illustrate daily activities and conflicts that went on for a long time, like the Chichimeca War. Likewise, it analyzes how cartography can express the future, exemplified in urban plans such as the division of San Luis Potosí into quarters in 1794. These maps, although they show a present reality, superimpose government intentions and plans for territorial control, highlighting the need to verify whether these projects materialized. Finally, the importance of interpreting historical cartography with caution is emphasized, as the information may be erroneous or incomplete, as demonstrated by the case of Isla Bermeja.

Palestinian women in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
type: item
description: This article analyzes the participation of Palestinian women in the context of the Israeli- Palestinian conflict, with a particular focus on their involvement in armed struggle during the Second Intifada (2000–2005) and their role in the public sphere. A critical reading is proposed from a feminist perspective that questions both the normative frameworks of the modern nation-state and the limitations of Western feminisms in understanding local dynamics. The study argues that Palestinian women face a dual oppression: on the one hand, the Israeli occupation, and on the other, patriarchal structures within their own society. Through an analysis of their participation in armed groups and political processes, the paper highlights how their agency is constantly shaped and constrained by masculine and hierarchical discourses. It calls for an approach that goes beyond the logic of "othering," recognizing these women as complex political subjects embedded in structural dynamics shared by women in other conflict-affected contexts.

Epistemological Foundations of Feminist Foreign Policy in the World
type: item
description: Feminist foreign policy represents a transformative paradigm in international relations by challenging the androcentric and Eurocentric epistemological foundations of traditional theories. This article analyzes how feminist epistemology—based on situated knowledge (Haraway, 1988), intersectionality (Crenshaw, 1991), and postcolonial critique—redefines foreign policy by shifting its focus from state power to gender justice and the inclusion of marginalized voices. It examines how these theoretical principles translate into concrete practices, analyzing cases such as Sweden, Mexico, Canada, Spain, Germany, and Chile. While these innovative initiatives promote greater equity in diplomacy and cooperation, they face tensions between Western universalism and cultural diversity, as well as institutional resistance. Their main challenge is to maintain their transformative character in the face of traditional power structures. The article highlights the need for a pluralist epistemology that, without abandoning human rights, engages with non-hegemonic forms of knowledge to build a truly inclusive foreign policy. Its contribution is not only theoretical but also practical: it offers tools to rethink power, security, and global justice from a decolonial and feminist perspective

The Treaty of Amsterdam and its contributions. Towards European integration
type: item
description: The Treaty of Amsterdam (TA) is an agreement signed in October 1997 in Amsterdam, Netherlands, which entered into force in May 1999 after being ratified by the then ex 15 member states of the European Union (EU). Its primary objective was to establish a unified framework for freedom, security, and justice within the EU. Additionally, it emphasized key aspects such as job creation, justice, the free movement of people, foreign policy, and security. Furthermore, it sought to implement the necessary institutional reforms in response to the accession of Eastern European countries plus Cyprus, and Malta to the EU. The TA stands as the third significant reform of the EU’s founding treaties, underscoring its paramount importance.

Comparative analysis of the strategic partnership between Brazil and Mexico with the European Union 2007-2025: results and expectation
type: item
description: Strategic partnerships are a legal instrument incorporated into the rest of the European Union's foreign policy tools and aim to enhance its global presence. Strategic partnerships were used as a more political instrument, indicating that global challenges should be addressed by key partners through partnerships with other key players or regions. The European Union has decided to integrate this new element of foreign action without a clear understanding of its scope and impact. This has generated criticism from a vast number of countries internationally, which question the validity of strategic partnerships in their foreign action. This paper analyzes the development of strategic partnerships between the European Union in Latin America, specifically the strategic partnerships with Brazil (2007) and Mexico (2008). Therefore, it will attempt to identify their negotiation process and structure, and, above all, generate a comparative analysis of the results and development of these strategic partnerships to date. Finally, we will explore the potential of these partnerships to address global challenges, the integration of the Latin American and Caribbean region, and bilateral opportunities.

Economic and Political Relations between Mexico and The European Union (2015-2023): Key and Strategic Elements of the Bilateral Relationship
type: item
description: This article assesses cooperation relations between Mexico and the European Union (EU). From ideologies, theoretical approaches and differentiated and at times, conflicting political proposals, but sustaining with consistency a link that has lasted and deepened for more than half a century. It is worth mentioning that relations between Mexico and the UE has aroused much interest, in the last decades. As the UE the third most important economic partner for Mexico. The second, provider of Foreign Direct Investment. Furthermore, Mexico and the UE share common western values, such us: respect of human rights, the principles of liberal democracy and believes in a multilateral order. Particular now, when the world face commercial wars, and the imposition of commercial wars and policies which generate political instability in the international scenario, that has been created by the current president of the United States, Donald Trump. Hence, both parties share the same interest in a multilateral order. Although Mexico and the EU have established one of the most important agreements in the world, known as the Global Agreement. However, relations between both parties, are fare to reach its maximum potential, for political, economic and even cultural reasons. For mention an example, Mexico concentrate more than 90 per cent of its foreign trade with just seven members of the 27 members of the UE. Those members are: Germany, Spain, Belgium, Italy, the United Kingdom (not member of the UE), Hungary and the Netherlands. From the part of Mexico, today more than ever it is a sine qua non condition for Mexico to seeks new trading partners among the 27 members of this organization, vis-á-vis the challenges faced by Donald Trump towards the USMCA. In this sense, Mexico could diversify its markets and reduce its economic dependence on the United States economy which accounts for more than 86 percent of Mexico's foreign trade on the international stage.

The breakdown of the Us strategy towards Russia and Ukraine. In Trump’s second term.
type: item
description: The aspiration for global control in all regions of the world, currently exhibited by the President of the United States, Donald Trump, and the geostrategy of establishing a dictatorship in the information world to exercise control and manipulation of society, combined with the tactics of a total hybrid war against undesired regimes, particularly against the Russian Federation (until recently, under President Biden), the People's Republic of China, and Iran, is evident. Due to the armed conflict in Ukraine, where Russia faces almost alone the armed forces of the countries of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and other factors, the world order is changing. The aggression of the media has been chosen as the main weapon of a total hybrid war against the Russian Federation in all spheres of life (politics, diplomacy, economy and business, energy, and culture).

Fascism and anti-fascism in 21st-century Europe
type: item
description: In the 21st century, Europe has witnessed the resurgence of far-right, neonationalist, and neoconservative movements, often associated with fascism and its variants. However, the lack of a precise definition and the constant transformation of these expressions make the antifascist struggle more challenging, as was the case during the interwar period. In this context, the hypothesis emerges that the ambiguity in defining contemporary expressions of fascism disorients modern antifascism and ultimately facilitates the expansion of liberal authoritarian forms. From a Critical Political Philosophy perspective, this paper reflects on the rise of the far right within the context of the crisis of neoliberalism and the political responses to structural inequalities in Europe.

The European Union’s strategy for facing the challenges of the 21st century
type: item
description: In an international context where uncertainty is the norm due to the distancing of traditional allies such as the United States and the European Union, caused not only by different political positions on issues such as the war in Ukraine, the environment, and NATO, but also because in the early months of 2025, Donald Trump's second administration as US president has triggered a trade war by raising tariffs on virtually all countries that trade with the US, including members of the European Union, The question that arises for scholars of Europe is whether this integration process has the tools to remain an influential player on the international stage, or whether its dependence on other countries in various areas (technology, security, trade, etc.) in this environment of uncertainty, which has revealed the vulnerability generated by free trade and cooperation with other states, puts its international presence at risk. Our hypothesis is that the interregional practice that the European Union has developed over decades will provide it with the links and tools to deal with the tariff policy that characterizes Donald Trump's second administration. To answer this question, we will consider those areas in which the European Union has long excelled and which respond to the essential principles of the integration process. By this we mean actions that result from principles and values such as freedom, democracy, and solidarity, as established in Article 2 of the Treaty on European Union, and which go beyond the current situation. Therefore, concepts such as cooperation, multilateralism, regionalism, and interregionalism, as well as vulnerability, will be used; that is, theories from international relations to neoliberalism will be used to understand the phenomenon at hand.

Strategic Transformation: Why do market-leading organizations fail in the face of uncertainty?
type: item
description: This article examines the importance of strategic and digital transformation in organizations to adapt to a competitive and dynamic business environment. It emphasizes the significance of market-leading companies developing innovative business models aimed at building resilience strategies to overcome challenges associated with changes in the business landscape, exemplified by the failures of Kodak, Nokia, and Motorola. Digital transformation is presented as a comprehensive process encompassing technology, methods, human resources, and corporate strategies, enabling organizations to remain competitive and align with sustainable development. In the Mexican context, the article highlights challenges such as low investment in research and development, limited digital maturity among companies, and the absence of an organizational culture that fosters creativity and technological adoption. The text concludes that organizations must prioritize innovation, promote public-private collaboration, and transform their corporate culture to seize emerging opportunities, address global challenges, and ensure their sustainability in a constantly evolving environment.

Teaching Mathematics in the Digital Era: Applied Mathematical Analysis
type: item
description: In Mexico, various assessments point to an educational gap in understanding mathematics. Although part of this is explained by the COVID-19 pandemic, recent research points to the need to update teaching-learning processes, as these have focused on developing calculus skills, which are perceived as useless. Consequently, the development of other skills that contribute to linking abstraction with everyday problem-solving is neglected. Therefore, this article conceptualizes Applied Mathematical Analysis as a framework for developing different skills associated with, and not just with, calculus processes. The notion of Applied Mathematical Analysis seeks to relate variables, that describe common problems, with formal mathematical concepts; that is, to serve as a guide for creating activities that allow students to communicate, interpret, identify assumptions, perform calculations, represent, and analyze problems through an understanding of mathematical objects. Seeking to implement mathematical concepts with their applications also allows us to identify digital tools that can facilitate understanding, either through their graphical or computational capabilities.

Incentives for the payment of property tax in Ecuador: game theory analysis
type: item
description: In this research work, a game theory model is proposed to analyze the interaction between two agents, the government and the taxpayer. Such a model considers realistic assumptions related to the tax collection in Ecuador. Specifically, we assume the existence of an inspector who is in charge of collection the property tax. By describing the previous interaction as a simultaneous game, we search for the government and taxpayer equilibrium strategies. Given the features of the tax collection system, such as the possibility to bribe and the inspector’s wage, the Nash equilibrium is characterized by promoting tax evasion. Later, we discuss some actions to improve the tax collection structure in order to avoid tax evasion.
