The Suez Canal As a Maritime Trade Strategic Point And Its Impact Upon The Adriatic Ports
Authors: Rudić Barbara , Štivičić Patricija
Published: July 2023

This paper investigates and analyzes the strategic role of the Suez Canal in the development of international maritime trade. The development of international trade by selected years in the period from 1970 to 2021 is analyzed, in particular the state of the world merchant fleet by the ship type in recent years. Among other things, this paper examines and analysis the turnover of ships and cargoes through the Suez Canal in the last nine years. Following the basic idea and the possibility of connecting Europe and Asia through the Suez Canal, the possibility of developing and functioning of the main logistics strategies was realized, that represent the basis for successful international trade and transport logistics of today. As part of the impact of the Suez Canal on maritime transport, special attention is paid to the impact of the Suez Canal on the ports of the northern Adriatic, which are well sheltered in the highly indented European mainland from the south and have thus ensured high competitiveness in Europe and the world. One of the main goals of this paper is to emphasize the fact that the Suez Canal and the gravitational hinterland of the northern Adriatic ports with their land traffic routes are the key elements in determining the development and operation of the northern Adriatic ports.

Published: July 2023

Immunotherapy is becoming more and more relevant in the treatment of advanced melanoma. Proper management of its side effects can prevent severe complications. We describe the case of a 73-year-old patient with severe refractory colitis secondary to immunotherapy. The patient has been treated for 6 months with Nivolumab, an anti-PD-1, as adjuvant therapy for locally advanced melanoma. He was admitted to the hospital with a deteriorating general condition associated with severe diarrhea and rectal bleeding for 3 weeks. Despite three lines of treatment (high dose corticosteroids, infliximab, mycophenolate mofetil), the patient still presented clinical and endoscopic colitis, with additional infectious complications. The patient required surgical management for total colectomy. In this article we present one of the rare cases of autoimmune colitis that did not respond to various immunosuppressive treatments and required surgery.

Published: July 2023

Abstract. Aerosol–cloud interaction is considered one of the
largest sources of uncertainty in radiative forcing estimations. To better
understand the role of black carbon (BC) aerosol as a cloud nucleus and the
impact of clouds on its vertical distribution in the Arctic, we report
airborne in situ measurements of BC particles in the European Arctic near
Svalbard during the “Arctic CLoud Observations Using airborne measurements
during polar Day” (ACLOUD) campaign held in the summer of 2017. BC was measured with
a single-particle soot photometer aboard the Polar 6 research aircraft from the lowest atmospheric layer up to approximately 3500 m a.s.l (metres above sea level). During
in-cloud flight transects, BC particles contained in liquid droplets (BC
residuals) were sampled through a counterflow virtual impactor (CVI) inlet.
Four flights, conducted in the presence of low-level, surface-coupled, inside-inversion, and mixed-phase clouds over sea ice, were selected to address
the variability in BC above, below, and within the cloud layer. First, the
increase in size and coating thickness of BC particles from the free
troposphere to the cloud-dominated boundary layer confirmed that ground
observations were not representative of upper atmospheric layers. Second,
although only 1 % of liquid droplets contained a BC particle, the higher
number concentration of BC residuals than BC particles sampled below cloud
indicated that the totality of below-cloud BC was activated by nucleation
scavenging but also that alternative scavenging processes such as the
activation of free-tropospheric BC at the cloud top might occur. Third, the
efficient exchange of aerosol particles at cloud bottom was confirmed by the
similarity of the size distribution of BC residuals and BC particles sampled
below cloud. Last, the increase in the BC residual number concentration
(+31 %) and geometric mean diameter (+38 %) from the cloud top to
the cloud bottom and the absolute enrichment in larger BC residuals compared
with outside of the cloud supported the hypothesis of concomitant scavenging
mechanisms but also suggested the formation of BC agglomerates caused by
cloud processing. The vertical evolution of BC properties from inside the cloud
and below the cloud indicated an efficient aerosol exchange at cloud bottom,
which might include activation, cloud processing, and sub-cloud release of
processed BC agglomerates. In the case of persistent low-level Arctic
clouds, this cycle may reiterate multiple times, adding an additional
degree of complexity to the understanding of cloud processing of BC particles in the Arctic.
Remotely sensed and surface measurement- derived mass-conserving inversion of daily NOx emissions and inferred combustion technologies in energy-rich northern China

Published: July 2023

Abstract. This work presents a new model-free inversion estimation framework (MFIEF) using daily TROPOspheric
Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) NO2 columns and observed fluxes from the continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) to quantify 3 years of daily scale emissions of NOx at 0.05∘×0.05∘ over Shanxi Province, a major world-wide energy-producing and energy-consuming region. The NOx emissions, day-to-day variability, and uncertainty on a climatological basis are computed to be 1.86, 1.03, and 1.05 Tg yr−1 respectively. The highest emissions are concentrated in the lower Fen River valley, which accounts for 25 % of the area, 53 % of the NOx emissions, and 72 % of CEMS sources. Two major forcing factors (10th to 90th percentile) are horizontal transport distance per day (63–508 km) and lifetime of NOx (7.1–18.1 h). Both of these values are consistent with NOx emissions to both the surface layer and the free troposphere. The third forcing factor, the ratio of NOx/NO2, on a pixel-to-pixel basis, is demonstrated to correlate with the combustion temperature and energy efficiency of large energy consuming sources. Specifically, thermal power plants, cement, and iron and steel companies have a relatively high NOx/NO2 ratio, while coking, industrial
boilers, and aluminum oxide factories show a relatively lower ratio.
Variance maximization is applied to daily TROPOMI NO2 columns, which
facilitates identification of three orthogonal and statistically significant
modes of variability, and successfully attributes them both spatially and
temporally to (a) this work's computed emissions, (b) remotely sensed
TROPOMI ultraviolet aerosol index (UVAI), and (c) computed transport based on TROPOMI NO2.
Earliest meteorological readings in San Fernando (Cádiz, Spain, 1799–1813)
Authors: Bravo-Paredes Nieves , Gallego María Cruz , Trigo Ricardo M. , Vaquero José Manuel
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Cádiz and San Fernando are two towns close to each other with a
wealth of meteorological records due to their connection with the Spanish
Royal Navy officers and enlightened merchants. Several previous works have
already recovered a significant number of meteorological records of interest
in these localities. However, more than 40 000
daily meteorological observations recorded at the Royal Observatory of the
Spanish Navy (located in San Fernando) during the period 1799–1813 were previously unnoticed; they remained
neither digitized nor studied. Here, we have carried out this important task,
describing the different steps undertaken to achieve it as well as the
results obtained. The dataset is composed of different meteorological
variables such as atmospheric pressure, air temperature, precipitation, and
state of the sky. As a first step a quality control was carried out to find
possible errors in the original data or in the digitization process.
Moreover, the antique units were converted to modern units. Also, the
metadata and an analysis of the data are described. The dataset is freely
available to the scientific community and can be downloaded at

Sensitivity of tropospheric ozone to halogen chemistry in the chemistry–climate model LMDZ-INCA vNMHC
Authors: Caram Cyril , Szopa Sophie , Cozic Anne , Bekki Slimane , Cuevas Carlos A. , Saiz-Lopez Alfonso
Published: July 2023

Abstract. The atmospheric chemistry of halogenated species (Cl, Br, I)
participates in the global chemical sink of tropospheric ozone and perturbs
the oxidising capacity of the troposphere, notably by influencing the
atmospheric lifetime of methane. Global chemistry–climate models are
commonly used to assess the global budget of ozone and its sensitivity to
emissions of its precursors, as well as to project its long-term evolution. Here,
we report on the implementation of tropospheric sources and chemistry of
halogens in the chemistry–climate model LMDZ-INCA (Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique general circulation model, LMDZ, and Interactions with Chemistry and Aerosols, INCA, version with Non-Methane HydroCarbon chemistry, vNMHC) and evaluate halogen
effects on the tropospheric ozone budget. Overall, the results show that the
model simulates satisfactorily the impact of halogens on the photo-oxidising
system in the troposphere, in particular in the marine boundary layer. To
quantify the effects of halogen chemistry in LMDZ-INCA, standard metrics
representative of the behaviour of the tropospheric chemical system (Ox,
HOx, NOx, CH4 and non-methane volatile organic compounds – NMVOCs) are computed with and without
halogens. The addition of tropospheric halogens in the LMDZ-INCA model leads to
a decrease of 22 % in the ozone burden, 8 % in OH and 33 % in NOx.
Sensitivity simulations show for the first time that the inclusion of
halogen chemistry makes ozone more sensitive to perturbations in CH4,
NOx and NMVOCs. Consistent with other global model studies, the
sensitivity of the tropospheric ozone burden to changes from pre-industrial
to present-day emissions is found to be ∼20 % lower when
tropospheric halogens are taken into account.
The Weddell Gyre heat budget associated with the Warm Deep Water circulation derived from Argo floats
Authors: Reeve Krissy Anne , Kanzow Torsten , Boebel Olaf , Vredenborg Myriel , Strass Volker , Gerdes Rüdiger
Published: July 2023

Abstract. The Weddell Gyre plays an important role in the global climate
system by supplying heat to underneath the ice shelves and in the formation of deep and bottom water masses, which have been subject to widespread
warming over past decades. In this study, we investigate the re-distribution
of heat throughout the Weddell Gyre by diagnosing the terms of the heat
conservation equation for a 1000 m thick layer of water encompassing the
core of Warm Deep Water. The spatial distributions of the different advective
and diffusive terms in terms of heat tendencies are estimated using gridded
climatologies of temperature and velocity, obtained from Argo floats in the
Weddell Gyre from 2002 to 2016. While the results are somewhat noisy on the
grid scale and the representation of the effects of eddy mixing is highly
uncertain due to the need to parameterise them by means of turbulent diffusion,
the heat budget (i.e. the sum of all terms) closes (within the uncertainty
range) when integrated over the open inflow region in the southern limb,
whereas the interior circulation cell remains unbalanced. There is an
overall balance in the southern limb between the mean horizontal advection
and horizontal turbulent diffusion of heat, whereas the vertical terms
contribute comparatively little to the heat budget throughout the Weddell
Gyre. Heat convergence due to mean horizontal advection balances with
divergence due to horizontal turbulent diffusion in the open southern limb
of the Weddell Gyre. In contrast, heat divergence due to mean horizontal
advection is much weaker than convergence due to horizontal turbulent
diffusion in the interior circulation cell of the Weddell Gyre, due to large
values in the latter along the northern boundary due to large meridional
temperature gradients. Heat is advected into the Weddell Gyre along the
southern limb, some of which is turbulently diffused northwards into the
interior circulation cell, while some is likely turbulently diffused
southwards towards the shelf seas. This suggests that horizontal turbulent
diffusion plays a role in transporting heat both towards the gyre interior
where upwelling occurs and towards the ice shelves. Horizontal turbulent diffusion is also a mechanism by which heat can be transported
into the Weddell Gyre across the open northern boundary. Temporal deviations
from the mean terms are not included due to study limitations. In order to
appreciate the role of transient eddying processes, a continued effort to
increase the spatial and temporal coverage of observations in the eastern
Weddell Sea is required.
Characterizing the surge behaviour and associated ice-dammed lake evolution of the Kyagar Glacier in the Karakoram
Authors: Li Guanyu , Lv Mingyang , Quincey Duncan J. , Taylor Liam S. , Li Xinwu , Yan Shiyong , Sun Yidan , Guo Huadong
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Glacier surges are prevalent in the Karakoram and
occasionally threaten local residents by inundating land and initiating mass
movement events. The Kyagar Glacier is well known for its surge history, and
in particular its frequent blocking of the downstream valley, leading to a
series of high-magnitude glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs). Although the surge
dynamics of the Kyagar Glacier have been broadly described in the
literature, there remains an extensive archive of remote sensing
observations that have great potential for revealing specific surge
characteristics and their relationship with historic lake outburst floods.
In this study, we propose a new perspective on quantifying the surging
process using successive digital elevation models (DEMs), which could be
applied to other sites where glacier surges are known to occur. Advanced
Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer DEMs, High Mountain
Asia 8-meter DEMs, and the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission DEM were used to
characterize surface elevation changes throughout the period from 2000 to
2021. We also used Landsat time series imagery to quantify glacier surface
velocities and associated lake changes over the course of two surge events
between 1989 and 2021. Using these datasets, we reconstruct the surging
process of the Kyagar Glacier in unprecedented detail and find a clear signal of
surface uplift over the lower glacier tongue, along with uniformly
increasing velocities, associated with the period of surge initiation.
Seasonal variations in surface flow are still evident throughout the surge
phase, indicating the presence of water at the glacier bed. Surge activity of the
Kyagar Glacier is strongly related to the development and drainage of the
terminal ice-dammed lake, which itself is controlled by the drainage system
beneath the glacier terminus.

Radiologic and clinical outcomes of an arthroscopic bridging graft for irreparable rotator cuff tears with a modified Mason-Allen stitch using a plantaris tendon autograft: a case series with minimum 2-year outcomes
Authors: Seok Hyun-Gyu , Park Sam-Guk
Published: July 2023

Background:Surgical management of a massive rotator cuff tear (RCT) is always challenging. This study describes the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients who underwent bridging grafts using a plantaris tendon for an irreparable RCT.Methods: Thirteen patients with a massive RCT were treated with arthroscopic interposition of a folded plantaris tendon autograft between June 2017 and January 2020. For clinical evaluation, a visual analog scale (VAS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score, Constant-Murley score, and range of motion values were collected. For radiographic evaluation, standardized magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasonography were performed to check the integrity of the interposed tendon.Results: A statistically significant improvement at the final follow-up was evident in scores for the VAS (−3.0, P=0.003), ASES (24.9, P=0.002), D ASH (−20.6, P=0.001), and Constant-Murley values (14.2, P=0.010). In addition, significant improvement was shown in postoperative flexion (17.3°, P=0.026) and external rotation (27.7°, P<0.001). In postoperative radiologic evaluations, the interposed tendons were intact at the last examination in 12 of the 13 patients. No complications related to donor sites were reported.Conclusions: An arthroscopic bridging graft for irreparable RCTs using a modified Mason-Allen stitch and a plantaris autograft resulted in improved short-term radiological and clinical outcomes. Graft integrity was maintained for up to 2 years in most patients.Level of evidence: IV.
Evaluation Of Microleakage In Class II Cavity Preparation Restored Using Zirconomer As Liner And Composite Resin In Closed-Sandwich Technique
Authors: NIKHADE PRADHNYA
Published: July 2023

Introduction : Microleakage in class II restoration mostly occur due to masticatory stresses and thermal changes which leads to secondary or recurrent caries. To overcome this problem of marginal leakage, Glass Ionomer cement base was used to substantially replace the composite resin restorative material in the proximal box.This technique is known as “composite-laminated GIC” or “sandwich” restoration. In the traditional “closed sandwich” technique there is placement of the zirconomer at the base of the proximal box so as it falls just short of the external cavo surface. This procedure offers no protection from proximal caries until failure of the dentine bonding agent.Materials and method : Twenty-six sound healthy teeth with absence of caries, restoration, cracks and white spots were selected.The proximal box was 4 mm wide bucco-lingually; whereas, the pulpal and axial walls measured to be 2 mm deep. After placement of the Zirconomer at the base of the proximal box such that it falls just short of the external cavo surface, etching and bonding of Zirconomer was done. Composite resin was placed in the proximal box and occlusal surface, leaving the zirconomer encased within the preparation. Samples were then processed for thermocycling. With the help of modelling wax, the apexes of the root were sealed to prevent the ingress of dye. The samples were then coated with nail varnish, applying two coats around all surfaces of teeth leaving 2 mm of the marginal area around the restorations. Immersion of sample was then done in methylene blue dye. Samples were then washed under running water for one minute and then air dried. In next step restorations were sectioned longitudinally through the centre of the tooth. They were sectioned by using diamond disc along with water as coolant. Sections were examined at 32x magnification under a stereomicroscope. SEM observations at the gingival margins of the specimens restored with closed sandwich technique depicted less satisfactory marginal adaptation. Conclusion : It can be concluded that none of the technique tested are free of microleakage. Zirconomer placed in the gingival floor of class II composite restoration may be a practical method to reduce microleakage.
Ectopic Vesicae in Adult : A Rare Case Report
Authors: Alnewar Pragati
Published: July 2023

Urinary bladder exstrophy is a relatively uncommon genitourinary malformation characterised by incomplete closure of the lower abdominal wall, resulting in bladder protrusion. Incidence is 3 to 5 per 1,00,000 births. It occurs as an isolated sporadic defect, but it has also been linked to other anomalies such as omphalocele, anal defect, neural tube defect, cleft lip/palate, preterm birth, and others. Adult presentation is unusual because it is usually surgically corrected in the neonatal period. The prognosis of such cases is determined by the level of continence achieved. We report a rare case of 23 years old patient with Ectopia Vesicae with the chief complaint of Dribbling of urine and using Diapers. On elaborating the history, the parents of the patient told that the condition was from birth. He had a history of incontinence noted soon after birth and a history of past surgical intervention at the age of 5 years. On physical examination revealed that the patient had a scar mark over the lower part of the abdomen and scar mark present over the penile region with excoriation of skin, extravasation of urine from opening over the penile shaft region, and doctors’ advice for Hospitalization. After admission patient undergone with various diagnostic investigations like CBC, LFT, KFT, ultrasonography, 2D ECHO, and patient undergone with cystoscopy. According to reviews, it suggests that this procedure can also benefit patients and is especially appropriate for adult patients with limited financial resources. This may open up new surgical options for patients suffering from bladder exstrophy.
Variation in canine Position’s in unilateral cleft lip and palate patients - A case Series
Authors: Lakhe Pratiksha
Published: July 2023

Cleft lip/palate is a common congenital anomaly that occurs during birth. Incomplete fusion of the maxillary prominence and median nasal processes results in a small niche or indentation on the lip and palate that extends all the way up to the nose. The orofacial cleft can appear as isolated cleft lip, cleft lip with cleft palate, be associated with syndromes, or present unilaterally or bilaterally. Various management modalities are recommended depending on the extent and severity of the anomalies. Cleft lip and palate are frequently associated with developmental problems in the primary and permanent dentitions. To restore all of the aesthetic, functional, periodontal, and restorative components, it is critical to address the associated dental anomalies
Utilising state of the art eye tracking equipment to improve outcomes for
maritime watchkeeper's on nocturnal navigational watches
Authors: Khalique Abdul
Published: July 2023

The International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (IRPCS)
require a ship's Officer of the Watch (OOW) to maintain a proper lookout at
all times. This includes looking out of the window as well as monitoring
information via Multi-Function Displays (MFDs) that are found on the
modern-day ship's bridge. These displays lead the OOW to spend time
interrogating their various menus and functions to seek required
information, thus distracting them from their primary task of maintaining a
lookout. This paper identifies the function of the human eye in performing
the lookout function during the hours of darkness. State of the art Eye
Tracking Devices (ETDs) are utilised to collect eye movement data in both
real-world and simulator-based ship bridges, and this is used to identify
the impact that MFDs have at night in reducing the eye's effectiveness in
the watchkeeping task. A novel scanning pattern is presented that can be
adopted by OOWs to make the best use of the eye's physiology, improving
lookout effectiveness at night and reducing the distraction caused by MFDs.
This paper aims to assist OOWs in making better use of their eyes, enabling
them to maintain optimum lookout performance during the hours of darkness.

A condition of exposure to multiple stressors resulting in a mixed clinical picture spanning conventional categories without meeting any of them in full, encompasses a risk for a list of comorbidities preventing appropriate prevention and treatment. New transformative transdiagnostic approaches suggest changes spanning conventional categories. They base their systems of classification on biomarkers as well as on brain structural and functional dysregulation as associated with behavioral and emotional symptoms. These new approaches received critiques for not being specific enough and for suggesting a few biomarkers for psychopathology as a whole. Therefore, they put the value of differential diagnosis at risk of avoiding appropriate derived prevention and treatment. Multiplicity of stressors has been considered mostly during and following catastrophes, without considering the resulting mixed clinical picture and life event concomitant stressors. We herewith suggest a new category within the conventional classification systems: The Complex Stress Reaction Syndrome, for a condition of multiplicity of stressors, which showed a mixed clinical picture for daily life in the post coronavirus disease 2019 era, in the general population. We argue that this condition may be relevant to daily, regular life, across the lifespan, and beyond conditions of catastrophes. We further argue that this condition may worsen without professional care and it may develop into a severe mental health disorder, more costly to health systems and the suffering individuals. Means for derived prevention and treatment are discussed.
Tingkat Language Talent Siswa dan Pengaruhnya terhadap Prestasi serta Motivasi Belajar Fikih
Authors: Fauziah  , Nasukah Binti
Published: July 2023

Fiqh learning is one of the Islamic religious materials that must be taught in madrasas. Researchers and practitioners of fiqh material try to find factors that can increase learning achievement and motivation. There is an assumption that one of the factors that determines the mastery of learning fiqh is the possession of language talent. Based on these assumptions, the study aims to determine whether the level of students' language talent has an impact on their learning achievement and motivation, by first disclosing the level of language proficiency, the level of learning achievement and the level of motivation to study specifically in Islamic Jurisprudence subjects. The research uses quantitative types with data collection techniques through questionnaire surveys for language aptitude variables and through documentation for students' learning achievement variables. The research was conducted on MTsN students in Malang Regency, with a sample of 122 respondents. The data obtained was then analyzed using a relationship test (causal) through linear regression. The results show that there is an influence of language talent on improving student achievement and motivation. This finding has implications for obtaining an important factor that must be considered by Fiqh teachers in an effort to improve their students' learning achievement and motivation, namely the factor of language talent.
Statistical Reproducibility of Meta-Analysis for Medical Mask Use in Community Settings to Prevent Airborne Respiratory Virus Infection
Authors: Young S. Stanley , Kindzierski Warren B.
Published: July 2023

Many US states, cities, and counties implemented public masking orders during the coronavirus (COVID) pandemic on the notion that this intervention would delay and flatten the epidemic peak and largely benefit public health outcomes. A p-value plot can provide insights into possible inappropriateness (incorrectness) of assumptions of a statistical model. It can be used to confirm, disprove, or identify ambiguity (uncertainty) in a meta-analytic finding and research claim. P-value plotting was used to evaluate statistical reproducibility of meta-analysis studies for disposable medical (surgical) mask use in community settings to prevent airborne respiratory virus infection. Eight studies (seven meta-analysis, one systematic review) published between 1 January 2020 and 7 December 2022 were evaluated. Base studies were randomized control trials with outcomes of medical diagnosis or laboratory-confirmed diagnosis of viral (Influenza or COVID) illness. Self-reported viral illness outcomes were excluded from the evaluation because of awareness bias. No evidence was observed for a medical mask benefit to prevent respiratory virus infection in six p-value plots (five meta-analysis and one systematic review). Research claims of no benefit in three meta-analysis and the systematic review were reproduced in p-value plots. Research claims of a benefit in two other meta-analysis were not reproduced in p-value plots suggesting irreproducibility of these claims. Insufficient data was available to construct p-value plots for two other meta-analysis because of over-reliance on self-reported outcomes. Independent findings of p-value plotting show that meta-analysis of existing randomized control trials fail to demonstrate a benefit of medical mask use in community settings to prevent airborne respiratory virus infection.

Published: July 2023

En los últimos años la literatura ha indicado que las mujeres reclusas extranjeras presentan una serie de características que difieren de las encontradas en el resto de la población penitenciaria femenina. En este artículo se analiza su perfil socioeducativo, atendiendo a diversos factores relacionados con sus carreras delictivas. Se ha llevado a cabo una investigación de carácter descriptivo no experimental, en la que participaron 159 mujeres extranjeras internas en 6 centros penitenciarios españoles. Los principales resultados ponen de manifiesto que esta población comete mayoritariamente delitos contra la salud pública, está condenada a más de 6 años de prisión, apenas presenta toxicomanías y que sus trayectorias laborales están marcadas por una gran precariedad. Se concluye con la necesidad de revisar la respuesta penal, dada su excesiva gravedad para el tráfico de drogas, y de reflexionar sobre las motivaciones económicas que normalmente se encuentran detrás de sus delitos.
Escuelas secundarias privadas, política y participación
Authors: Mayer Liliana
Published: July 2023

La participación estudiantil en las escuelas secundarias ha sido un tema de análisis e investigación de larga data. Sin embargo, en nuestro país, los estudios se han enfocado en las escuelas secundarias de gestión estatal, de modo que han quedado relegadas las instituciones pertenecientes al subsistema privado, pese a su representación cuantitativa —la matrícula en este sector en Argentina alcanza el 30 % y en algunas zonas, como el Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, llega al 50 %—.

Teniendo esto en cuenta, se analizan aquí diferentes instancias participativas de dicho subsistema, que exceden los tradicionales centros de estudiantes y consejos de convivencia, como los proyectos solidarios, el club Ted-Ed, el cuerpo de delegados, entre otros. También se estudian sus limitaciones y potencialidades, y las explicaciones que las instituciones otorgan para desarrollar este tipo de acción participativa en detrimento de otras. En su conjunto, esta obra busca reflexionar acerca de las experiencias de participación escolar en las escuelas secundarias de educación privada en Argentina mediante investigaciones situadas que articulan diferentes perspectivas y nociones teóricas.
