Aliases vs contexts

Hi Guys,
I have been wondering about aliases and contexts, I have a situation in which I can apply an alias or a join to an existing table and a context, both will ultimately have the same result but the join and context may result on more navigation.

I know there are pros and cons with both but generally speaking which one is the best practice when both options are available to you?. What other considerations should you take into account?
Many thanks,

Jorge
