Abstrakt: "Estrategias de mediación cultural en emergencias: lectura y escritura como refugios simbólicos, Tomos I y II" is a two-volume publication that explores the potential of literature and cultural mediation in critical emergency contexts. Authored by scholars from Glasgow University, the volumes discuss the role of literature and artistic experiences in mitigating the alienations and pain that arise from emergencies such as migration, displacement, and pandemics. The publication provides theoretical explorations, ethical recommendations, and practical tools for cultural mediation practices that foster integration, interculturality, and social belonging through children's and young adult literature. It emphasizes the transformative potential of art and literature as symbolic refuges and highlights the importance of an ethics of care in supporting communities during crises.
