In an era where information flows faster than ever before, one might assume that education would serve as a shield against manipulation. Yet, paradoxically, even the most educated individuals can fall prey to the influence of social media, becoming unwitting participants in the spread of misinformation. How is it that those equipped with the tools of critical thinking can be […]
Tariffs have historically been used by governments to raise revenues and protect domestic production. The current post-WW II era has seen a gradual reduction in the use of tariffs.

In the middle of a pandemic emotions and reflections seem to be more intense than in other times. We develop questions in our mind about ourselves like what we really are, what is the role of our existence, no matter where you live in any continent!

We are part of the problem because we make part of this as a whole and have the obligation to be responsible and responsive to what is affecting the Globe and work with the possible means in our hands to make it better.
So, it was in the middle of that, which was maybe the most difficult time in our lives, the center of the biggest sanitary crisis that we decided to voice our thoughts through a journal. This journal is a loner, it has no political ties or ideology, no pretension to be something bigger than it is, it is just the expression of something that has been looked at, but never seen from what is happening on our planet these days!
