Due to the difficulty of thinking about any event within such a complicated context, we present a visualization to guide researchers’ recognition of the relationships that shape the historical process they study. To support thought, we repurpose a pair of linked visualizations that model gene expression in the morphogenesis of tissues and organs from a fertilized egg. The visual metaphor presents the shaping factors in two ways. First, the historical process encounters, as it moves through the complex-systems landscape, a series of elevations and depressions, which can be identified with significant relations. Second, from below, the metaphor permits the identification of these perturbations, the hills and valleys, with networks connecting the landscape's undulations to developments in specific places and larger geographic areas. These networks also serve to represent the way the complex human system couples with the complex natural systems relevant to the historical process in question. Moreover, the metaphor demands the recognition of hierarchies of instability, on which historians must focus to understand when a level of instability is reduced through some localized development, and when the instability level in places most relevant to the overall human system become so unstable that the system enters a period of phase transition to a new historical system and period. Employing the metaphor in this manner allows historians to defend the importance of their own research by tying it to world historical processes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100956,"journal":{"name":"New Techno-Humanities","volume":"3 1","pages":"Pages 6-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50184599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A number of studies have focused on the evangelical and missionary contribution by the members of the Society of Jesus in the Latin American and Asian frontiers, but this article puts forward a different point of view. I use the GECEM Database to compare two Jesuit mission areas (Macau and Paraguay) and their role in the global commercial routes. So, this article further departs from earlier scholarship on Jesuits by emphasising the local, by combining local scale with an analysis of inter-regional processes on a continental scale. My main sources are Jesuit letters, regulations, reports, accounts, and stories, and I also used the GECEM Database to analyse this empirical data.</p></div><div><h3>Resumen</h3><p>Este artículo muestra que el uso de las nuevas tecnologías y los programas informáticos arroja luz sobre el papel que los jesuitas desempeñaron en las redes comerciales de los imperios ibéricos durante la época moderna.

As a response, a group of self-taught filmmakers from Ayacucho took up cameras to tell their own stories of violence and conflict, providing a critical perspective on official narratives and their disregard for the continuing social disparities. Keeping up with a long-standing tradition of local artists as critical intellectuals and narrators of people's histories, these filmmakers use new and accessible technologies to tell stories at the margins of public discourses defined by the capital Lima. In this context, the role of filmmaking can be understood as two-fold: an act of appropriation of western technologies and a technique to deliver justice to the people of Ayacucho through storytelling. In this article, I examine the creative practice of cinema-making in the Andes as a form of social intervention that seeks to resist contemporary memory regimes and allows for imagining alternative futures.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100956,"journal":{"name":"New Techno-Humanities","volume":"3 1","pages":"Pages 49-55"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50184491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
