The book seeks, through its introduction and its four texts, to outline in a general way the lines of discussion around the study of events, starting from various theoretical perspectives and with different empirical works: from the construction of Ciudad Universitaria to the epidemic of COVID-19, going through a massacre in Ciudad Juárez and births in public gardens.

The central questions for the reflections when having the event at the center are how to identify it, with what analytical tools to approach it, how to define it, how to see it over time and how to grasp it as an object of investigation.

Our book tries to contribute with that kaleidoscopic view of the world, its events and its becoming an event.
