If I had to choose an expert in the field of political scienc, it would be Giovanni Sartori.

Muere Giovanni Sartori, el primer gran enemigo de la televisión y ...

He was an Italian political scientist specialized in the study of democracy and comparative politics. Born in Florence, Italy in 1924 nearly two years after fascist strongman Benito Mussolini rose to the position of Italy's prime minister.

Academic career:
Sartori began his academic career as a lecturer in the History of Modern Philosophy, and later became Dean of the University of Florence's political science department. His academic influence skyrocketed after the publication in the "American Political Science Review" of his seminal paper, "Concept Misformation in Comparative Politics," considered a must-read classic for political science students around the world. (EFE, 2017)

Sartori died at the age of 92 in Florence from throat cancer on 4 April 2017.

The reason I chose this author, is because I find his approach to the development of political science extremely interesting and how science should be done in an era where one only thinks about the accumulation of knowledge and resembles the natural sciences in its methodology.

My favourite piece of technology

Technology is present in every area of our lives. Seems to be omnipresent and moves forward quickly. If I had to choose one piece of technology, it could be the cell phone or mobile phone. Cell phone is a portable telephone that can make and receive calls while people is moving within a telephone service area. There are many designs and shapes of cell phones and every year bring us news and advances. Since the 70’s this device brings us an essential part of life: long distance communication. Today, the cell phone has amazing features taken from sci-fi movies: real-time video calls, allows us to take pictures in high resolution, record audio, call more than one person at a time, listen to music all day long if you want, check social networks, play games, watch movies and some are even water resistant. Despite all that, I like simplicity. I use my cell phone several hours per day to check social networks, watch videos and series, call my friends, and send messages. ...

“Back in the 90s, He was in a very famous TV show He’s BoJack the Horse, BoJack the Horse Don't act like you don't know And he’s trying to hold on to his past It's been so long He doesn't think he’s gonna last I guess he'll just try And make you understand That he’s more horse than a man Or he more man than a horse” Hiya, folks! I’d like to talk about a great animated series: BoJack Horseman. Not long ago, I started to watch this series by a friend recommendation and I really liked so much!  Among the things that I stand out are the mix of comedy and drama, the daily problems of adult life and how dark it could be at times.  Premise: The series is set in L.A. and shows a world in which humans and anthropomorphic animal-people coexist.  The main character is BoJack Horseman, an ex-actor who still holds on to his past and wants to be happy. Ever since the cancellation of his show after its ninth season, BoJack has become a ...

Free topic: A Personal Voyage

Hello there This time I didn’t really know what to talk about, so I started thinking about some issues from my childhood. I remember when I was a kid I used to play on my computer and review the famous ‘Encarta’. One day my mom came and gave It to my sister and me a CD.  That CD contained the famous TV series 'Cosmos: A personal Voyage'. The series was produced in 1978 and 1979. Despite that, it had incredible special effects and a great montage. What I admire most about the series are the incredible landscapes and its producer, Carl Sagan.  Music is another highlight: it fits perfectly with each scene and is composed by the famous Greek composer Vangelis.  I remember that with this series I began to be interested in science fiction themes, the universe and to have my first existential doubts.  If you are interested in this type of subject, I invite you to search on youtube: Cosmos. It is really a great program and deserves to be valued...
