About the Instructor

Claudia Ruiz Arriola

Fiel al principio heracliteano de “la única constante de la existencia es el cambio”, a la fecha lleva tres reencarnaciones en esta vida:

En la primera estudió Administración y Mercadotecnia para dizque ganarse la vida de manera creativa, pero un año antes de terminar su carrera se topó con Sócrates (el de la Apología de Platón) y se convirtió a la socrática religión de ironía y dudas que aún profesa hoy en día.

En la segunda reencarnación decidió doctorarse en filosofía, estudiando bajo la batuta de Aristóteles (el discípulo de Platón NO el político priísta) e hizo una serie de pininos laborales intentando aplicar las ideas socrático-aristótelicas a la “vida real” (whatever that means) con incursiones de moderado éxito en la academia, la industria y los medios de comunicación.

Ha impartido clases de Humanidades, Ética y Geopolítica en la Universidad Panamericana y el Tec de Monterrey. Por once años fue editorialista del Grupo Reforma y Presidente de la Asociación de Ex-Becarios Brockmann de la American Chamber of Commerce of Mexico.

A mediados del 2008 se enamoró perdidamente de Heidegger (al purito estilo de Hannah Arendt) y comenzó la ardua labor de aprender a pensar “de a deveras” (cuestión en la que confiesa apenas va en Kinder). Ha publicado 6 libros sobre Geopolítica, Historia de las Religiones e Historia de la Filosofía y mantiene el blog www.elzoologicodeyahve.com
