Description:
Pablo Oyarzun is one of the foremost Benjamin scholars in Latin America. His writings have shaped the reception of Benjamin™s work in Latin America and have been central to the effort to identify the tasks and responsibilities of the kind of critical theory that would interrupt social violenceIn this book Oyarzun examines some of the key concepts in Benjamin™s work “ including his concepts of translation, experience, history and storytelling “ and relates them to his own systematic reflection on the nature and implications of Âdoing justice™. What is meant by the words Âjustice was done™? The passive voice is important here. On the one hand, justice does nothing: it is not an agent, it can only prevail or fail, and if it fails, it does so without limit. On the other hand, the passive voice alludes to the agents of an action while covering them up; the allusion is the masking of the identity and traces of the person who accomplishes the action. And this cover-up can be dangerous: it can cover-up the executioners, who are subjects that everyone can confirm anonymously, without their being recognized and without their wanting to be recognized. Justice, argues Oyarzun, can only be done in the active effort to do justice “ or, as Benjamin would say, in the striving to turn the world into the highest goodThis book by one of Chile™s most distinguished philosophers will be of value to anyone interested in Benjamin™s work and in the development of critical theory in Latin America.

Weightless, well made. But there are problems with size
Size: 8.5, Color: White
I bought it for a teenager, for size 81/2. This, according to the dimensions on the page, is 25.9 centimeters. They came, the size was indicated correctly, but they are large for the child. Very large. They fit me, size 10. The child is disappointed.
Well made, look neat on the foot. Almost weightless
But I can't give the maximum rating. I wish the seller to deal with the size grid.

Not A Walking Shoe
Size: 9.5, Color: Black/British Tan
In the photo online this shoe looks like it will be very comfortable. Kind of a classy Coach's Shoe. Also in the photo the heel portion of the sole looks thick and supportive. I bought them thinking they would be my go-to travel shoe. Wrong.
This is not a comfortable shoe for extended wear. Short durations, OK. The main problem is that the sole is very thin and flexible in all directions. There is no, as in zero arch support, plus that thin heel means that you tend to rock back on your heels and it feels like you're pounding the pavement.
I've worn once and I'm very disappointed. They look great, definitely high quality materials, but using them for the intended purpose of travel.... fah get about it.
If you're looking for a good looking shoe to wear around the gym and you don't intend to use the treadmill, or elliptical, then this is the shoe you want.
They would definitely be returned if I hadn't already worn them outside.
