Exploring the Relationship between the Mosaic Code and the Hammurabi Code
Authors: BOAHENG ISAAC
Published: December 2020

Over the years there has been a growing interest in the connections between the Old Testament and other Ancient Near East literature. The Hammurabi Code, a Babylonian legal document which predates the Mosaic Code by about 300 years, is one of the ancient documents that have featured prominently in such comparative studies. The remarkable similarities between the Hammurabi Code and the Mosaic Code raises questions about the originality of the Mosaic Code. Scholars often ask whether Moses copied and/or revised the Hammurabi Code and gave it to Israel as a divinely inspired Law or whether Moses actually received his Law as an original document from God. If Moses plagiarized the Hammurabi Code, then the inspiration of the Mosaic Code and (by extension) the inspiration of the entire Hebrew Scriptures is in doubt. The relevance of this textual and source issue for Old Testament scholarship has prompted the present study which aims at investigating the relationship between the Mosaic Code and the Hammurabi Code through a comparative study. After a critical assessment of the key similarities and differences between these two ancient documents, the paper suggests keys factors that might have accounted for the similarities and the proceeds to contend for the originality and authenticity of the Mosaic Code.

A Pragma- Stylistic Analysis of the First Speech of President Muhammad Buhari on Coronavirus Pandemic
Authors: ZAKARIYAH MOSHOOD
Published: December 2020

Scholarly works abound on President Muhammadu Buhari’s political speeches but very few have been done on Covid-19 pandemic. Thus, this paper aims at investigating a stylo-pragmatic study of President Buhari’s First speech on Coronavirus Pandemic with a view to exploring how he uses language to express and convince people of their thoughts about the issues happening in the nation. To achieve this, ten (10) utterances relating to themes of economic effect, palliative measures, world power measures, security measures, preventive measures, and importance of human lives were purposively selected from the speech and analysed from the points of Mey’s (2001) pragmatic acts and a stylistic tool of foregrounding as the theoretical framework. The study revealed that the president’s language is characterised by the practs of securing and informing the readers about the covid-19 pandemic and government’s efforts to secure the nation, and contain the virus against further spread. This is drawn on contextual features such as Shared Situational Knowledge (SSK), Metaphor (MPH) and Relevance (REF). The study also revealed that other instantiated pragmatic acts of securing, preventing, updating, relieving, easing, promising, pacifying, confirming and authenticating were found in the selected utterances of presidential briefing on covid-19.

O(s) porquê(s) da não inserção dos grupos de catadores que atuam nas unidades de triagem (UT’s) do sistema de coleta seletiva municipal no planejamento e na gestão dos resíduos sólidos em Rio Grande (RS)
Authors: Fernandez Farias Bruno Cesar
Published: December 2020

Verifica-se que a Prefeitura Municipal do Rio Grande (PMRG) não vem atendendo ao conteúdo da Política Nacional dos Resíduos Sólidos (PNRS), sobretudo no que tange à inserção de grupos de catadores de material reciclável na gestão e no planejamento dos resíduos sólidos no município. Isso porque a maioria das organizações de catadores das unidades de triagem (UT’s) da coleta seletiva municipal atuam na informalidade, em condições de trabalho precárias e com baixos rendimentos, visto que sua renda se restringe ao que obtêm com a venda dos recicláveis. Assim, o objetivo geral da pesquisa foi problematizar a situação de superexploração da mão de obra dos catadores e identificar as possíveis razões de sua não inserção no planejamento e na gestão dos recicláveis no município. Como resultado, destaca-se que a prefeitura não os remunera pelo serviço ambiental prestado. Aliás, antes de exercer uma atividade de interesse ambiental, procuram, por meio dela, suprir suas necessidades básicas de sobrevivência no contexto de uma sociedade desigual e injusta como a brasileira. Nesse sentido, a valorização socioeconômica dos catadores deve contemplar também a importância ambiental de sua atividade, além do que recebem pelo que vendem.
Políticas de remoção: Velhas práticas, novas justificativas. O caso das favelas localizadas no bairro do Alto da Boa Vista (Rio de Janeiro) e a instrumentalização conservadora da questão ambiental
Authors: Fonseca Tiago Boruchovitch
Published: December 2020

O presente artigo busca analisar os conflitos que ameaçam de remoção as favelas localizadas no bairro do Alto da Boa Vista, Rio de Janeiro, a partir da história das políticas de remoção nesse município. O bairro do Alto da Boa Vista localiza-se no Maciço da Tijuca e consiste no entorno imediato do Parque Nacional da Tijuca. Caracteriza-se por grandes contrastes sociais e há, em sua parte formal, diversas casas de alto padrão, assim como treze favelas, ameaçadas de remoção por duas principais frentes: um projeto de im­plementação de uma Área de Proteção Ambiental e Recuperação Urbana e uma Ação Civil Pública pro­posta pelo Ministério Público Estadual do Rio de Janeiro. Os dois conflitos remetem a justificativas relaci­onadas às questões ambientais – seja pelo viés do risco ou da degradação ambiental –, construídas, em ambos os casos, a partir de frágeis argumentações. Assim, pretende-se realizar um breve histórico das políticas de remoção no município do Rio de Janeiro, mostrando também as conquistas relacionadas ao direito à moradia e à permanência, como forma não apenas de contextualizar o aparecimento das justifi­cativas ambientais para as ameaças de remoção sofridas pelas favelas do Alto da Boa Vista, mas também de refletir sobre elas.

Síndrome de regresión embrionaria testicular: conceptos clínicos y revisión de la bibliografía
Authors: Morales Aranda Juan José
Published: December 2020

Los trastornos del desarrollo sexual tienen baja incidencia en la población pediátrica; sin embargo, su repercusión a mediano y largo plazo justifica su entendimiento. El síndrome de regresión embrionaria testicular es una alteración compleja, que frecuentemente pasa inadvertida en el diagnóstico médico; se caracteriza por la exposición embrionaria al estímulo de la testosterona, pero en algún proceso del desarrollo sucede una regresión gonadal, que resulta o expresa un fenotipo masculino en grado variable. El diagnóstico se establece con la detección del cariotipo 46, XY, determinación de testosterona poscastración y concentraciones séricas elevadas de LH y FSH. La concentración sérica de hormona antimülleriana representa un marcador indirecto de coexistencia y función testicular; en pacientes con concentraciones normales o elevadas debe sospecharse un trastorno en la síntesis androgénica y, de esta manera, se excluye el diagnóstico de síndrome de regresión embrionaria testicular. El tratamiento aún se discute, pues debe individualizarse según el grado de virilización fenotípica, pero siempre debe ser multidisciplinario. Es importante ofrecer apoyo psicológico para el paciente y sus padres.PALABRAS CLAVE: regresión embrionaria testicular, trastornos del desarrollo sexual, uropediatría, intersexo.

Hemolytic Disease of Fetus and Newborn in a Primigravida with Multiple Alloantibodies Involving Anti-Jka and Anti-E: A Case Report
Authors: Iberahim Salfarina , Aizuddin Maryam Jameelah , Kadir Nurulhuda Abd , Rameli Nabilah , Adzahar Sumaiyah , Noor Noor Haslina Mohd , Abdullah Wan Zaidah
Published: December 2020

The majority of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) reported in the literature is due to ABO and rhesus incompatibility. However, there are also other minor blood groups that have been identified as a cause of HDFN, although the occurrence is much rarer. The antibody screening program for D negative mother and the anti-D immunoglobulin treatment showed a significant reduction of the occurrence of HDFN secondary to anti-D. In a developed country, the screening for red blood cell antibody in the pregnant mother other than anti-D reduced the possibility of HDFN occurrence hence reduced the fetal morbidity and subsequently increased the fetal well being during pregnancy and after the postnatal period. In this case report, we discuss HDFN in a primigravida patient secondary to multiple alloantibodies (anti-Jka and anti-E). The baby developed jaundice with bilirubin levels approaching the exchange transfusion level. However, with extensive phototherapy and immunoglobulin treatment, the child did not require exchange transfusion. We also included the importance of the routine antenatal antibody screening program. This practice will help the transfusion center to find the antigen negative blood in a timely manner and reduce the morbidities and mortalities of HDFN among the newborns.
Educação Científica, (Pós)Verdade e (Cosmo)Políticas das Ciências
Authors: Ranniery Thiago , Telha Renata , Terra Nathalia
Published: December 2020

Neste texto, nós buscamos pensar sobre cosmopolíticas das ciências e educação científica em tempos de pós-verdade, inspiradas na formulação de autores de estudos da ciência e da tecnologia, complicados por perspectivas pós-coloniais e feministas. Nosso ponto de partida é uma compreensão da pós-verdade como uma espécie de condição social e política mais do que uma coisa ou fenômeno contra o qual iremos nos opor. Deste modo, nós desenvolvemos nosso argumento sob uma valência dupla. Por um lado, defendemos afastar-nos de uma concepção de educação científica que, atada à recuperação de fantasias do projeto iluminista, se restrinja à denúncia ou ao esclarecimento. Por outro, nós nos dedicamos a uma leitura da relação com a verdade que não seja da ordem da fé, mas que se estabeleça em termos de como práticas científicas nos permitem levar a sério um engajamento ético com o mundo, o que implica tomar o ato de dizer a verdade como um trabalho corporificado de agir na incerteza. Ao nos deslocar de uma verdade afiliativa para a evocação performativa da verdade, defendemos, por fim, o reestabelecimento da conexão entre práticas científicas e cosmopolítica, bem como uma relacionalidade ética com a verdade na educação científica, que seja da ordem do encontro entre subjetividade e alteridade na construção de mundos possíveis e mais habitáveis.
"Formação econômica do Brasil" de Celso Furtado em três dimensões: história, economia e horizonte de expectativa
Authors: Santos Fabio Padua dos
Published: December 2020

Objetivo: O presente artigo tem por objetivo oferecer aos leitores de Formação Econômica do Brasil um posfácio ao clássico de Celso Furtado de modo a enriquecer a primeira leitura e suscitar algumas provocações. Métodos: O texto combina análise de história das ideias e sociologia do conhecimento como métodos de análise. Resultados: Argumenta-se que Formação articula três problemáticas: da análise econômica do passado; da historicização das leis econômicas; e da teoria para a ação. Esta articulação resultou em contribuições originais em três domínios: no campo da historiografia, a caracterização do subdesenvolvimento como um fenômeno particular da civilização industrial; nas ciências econômicas, a proposição de uma teoria do subdesenvolvimento; e, no domínio das interpretações do Brasil, o padrão de crescimento econômico excludente e a questão regional para a integração nacional. Conclusões: Por fim, conclui-se que Furtado pretendeu construir um conhecimento sobre a realidade brasileira que não se apresentasse como forma de dominação.
Celso Furtado: da história, através da economia, para a história
Authors: Bohn Liana
Published: December 2020

Conforme seus registros, Celso Furtado assumiu para si, desde muito cedo, ‘a tarefa de pensar o Brasil’. Para isso, ‘armou-se de conhecimento’, especialmente o científico, o que lhe garantiu um olhar multidisciplinar sobre os problemas brasileiros e sobre as perspectivas de transformação econômica e social. Para além de grande teórico da economia do desenvolvimento (e do subdesenvolvimento), Furtado forneceu novas bases para a leitura da formação econômica do país e, a partir de seu método histórico-estrutural, deu os primeiros passos na decolonização das Ciências Econômicas brasileiras. Como homem de ação, aliou conhecimento e prática, sendo também um agente do processo de transformação do país, com especial destaque aos esforços despendidos no Nordeste e no âmbito da cultura. Este ensaio, em comemoração aos 100 anos de seu nascimento, tem a pretensão de fazer um breve recorrido da trajetória intelectual e política daquele que, a partir da história e através da economia, entrou para a história do Brasil.
O gaucho vai à ópera: Estanislao del Campo e os primeiros anos do Teatro Colón de Buenos Aires
Authors: Diego Marcelo
Published: December 2020

Três poemas do escritor argentino Estanislao del Campo (Buenos Aires, 1834-1880), publicados entre 1857 e 1866, têm como motivo óperas encenadas no Teatro Colón, inaugurado em 1857. Dois deles têm como personagem o gaucho "Anastasio el Pollo", por meio do qual o autor atualiza, embora em tom paródico, o gênero gauchesco. Este ensaio examina brevemente esses poemas, a fim de observar como, neles, o universo do teatro lírico é mobilizado como espelho do universo do gênero gauchesco.
Júlio Pomar: uma leitura contemplativa do grotesco no neorreal
Authors: Moura Rafael Reginato
Published: December 2020

Este artigo intenta demonstrar, por intermédio da contemplação de obras do artista visual português Júlio Pomar, em correlação com a crítica artística e literária da época, traços e elementos estéticos capazes de situar sua fase de expressão neorrealista como objeto de cotejo também moderno. Para isso, o presente artigo busca, sobretudo, identificar em pinturas e desenhos do artista características de índole moderna que, conforme Victor Hugo, estariam associadas a uma estética do grotesco ou, como se pretende ampliar, à deformação e ao desagradável. Deformar grotescamente ou optar pelo desagradável ao agradável, nesse caso, é também tomar como vereda estético-histórica a possibilidade de representar no centro da cena, em imagem e memória, heróis menores, subalternos, invisíveis, espoliados ou vencidos, cujas vozes e figuras nos chegam distorcidas ou em ecos a serem desenterrados.

Published: December 2020

Objetivo: Delinear as características epidemiológicas da mortalidade por suicídio em uma cidade no interior do Nordeste brasileiro. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo e retrospectivo realizado com dados secundários. Coletaram-se dados referentes aos 67 casos de suicídio ocorridos em uma cidade no interior do Ceará, extraídos do Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade do Ministério da Saúde, de 2000 a 2015. O estudo incluiu mortes por lesões autoprovocadas intencionalmente, de acordo com a 10ª Revisão da Classificação Internacional de Doenças. Selecionaram-se variáveis para a caracterização dos óbitos, como gênero, faixa etária, estado civil, raça/cor, ocupação e método utilizado. Resultados: Estimou-se o coeficiente de mortalidade específica em 8,77/100 mil habitantes no período avaliado. A maior frequência encontrada foi na população masculina (76,1%), de 40 a 49 anos (32,8%), com estado civil solteiro (53%), de raça/cor parda (68,4%) e com atuação laboral agrícola (64,2%). Verificou-se coeficiente preocupante entre idosos na faixa etária entre 60-69 anos (12,44/100mil habitantes). Enforcamento e autointoxicação por pesticidas configuram-se como os dois principais meios utilizados. Conclusão: Os dados de mortalidade por suicídio no município encontram-se em consonância com as estatísticas globais, mas acima das taxas estaduais e nacionais de suicídio. O perfil das pessoas que cometeram suicídio é composto predominantemente por homens, etnia parda, solteiros e que exercem atividade agrícola como ocupação.

A resenha está estruturada em duas partes. Na primeira parte, descreve-se o conteúdo do livro. Já na segunda parte, critica-se o livro, ora embasando-se em reações de outros autores, ora nas reações originais que surgiram no Curso, se pautando pela experiência comparada de autoritarismos com características brasileiras.
Potential of medicinal plant compounds to targeting Tau protein in the therapy of Alzheimer’s disease– A review
Authors: Armand Ella Fils , Shantaram Manjula , Frédéric Nico Njayou , Ngamli Simon Fewou , Fewou Paul Moundipa
Published: December 2020

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a devastative neurodegenerative disorder with complex etiology. AD is characterized by blood-brain barrier disruption, oxidative stress, mitochondrial impairment, neuro- inflammation, hypo-metabolism; it decreases in acetylcholine levels and a reduction of cerebral blood flow. It is also not solely the end-product of aberrantly processed, misfolded, and aggregated oligomeric amyloid- beta peptides but hyper phosphorylated Tau (tubulin binding protein) which formed senile plaque and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles respectively. However, despite the long-term and worldwide effort for a more effective therapy, the only available treatment is a symptomatic use of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and memantine. Then, many researchers focused their attention to modulate amyloid-beta peptides. These therapeutic approaches as well as those based on cholinergic or amyloid theory have not brought the desired benefits yet. Thus, the main features related with the Tau pathology found in AD are Tau phosphorylation and aggregation. Based on the biochemically diverse range of pathological Tau protein, a number of approaches have been proposed to develop new potential therapeutics like inhibition of Tau phosphorylation, proteolysis and aggregation; promotion of intra- and extracellular Tau clearance and stabilization of microtubules (MTs). Medicinal plants have been used in different systems of medicine and exhibited their powerful roles in the management and cure of memory disorders. This review paper discusses the potential of medicinal plant molecules to targeting Tau protein in Alzheimer’s disease therapy.
Effect of antiepileptic drugs on various lipid fractions and certain liver enzymes in epileptic patients of Punjab origin
Authors: Kuldip Singh , Harleen Kaur , Pashaura Singh
Published: December 2020

Introduction and Aim: Epilepsy requires lifelong therapy with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) &having medical and psychological consequence. Present study was conducted to observe the effect of different AEDs on lipid profile and certain liver enzymes on epileptic patients.

Material and Methods: 50 epileptic patients receiving AEDs for minimum 1 year were recruited as study group and 50 healthy subjects considered as control group. These subjects were recruited from general community of Punjab. Fasting blood samples were drawn from patients and healthy subjects for the evaluation of total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol, VLDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, AST, ALT & ALP.

Results: Significant increase in total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol, VLDL- cholesterol was observed in epileptic patients while no significant change was recorded in HDL- cholesterol. Maximum increase in total cholesterol, TGs, LDL-cholesterol, VLDL- cholesterol levels was observed in phenytoin treated patients with reference tovalproic acid, carbamazepine, levetiracetam treated patients. Levels of AST, ALT and ALP were significantly increased in epileptic patients. Maximum increase in AST & ALT was observed in levetiracetam treated epileptic patients and maximum rise in ALP levels was found in carbamazepine treated patients with reference to other AEDs treated patients.

Conclusion: Aforementioned observations suggested that epileptic patients treated with phenytoin, valproic acid, carbamazepine & levetiracetam for long time could cause dyslipidemia, might be responsible for various CHD’s and hepatotoxicity in epileptic patients. Routine screening of lipid profile and hepatic enzymes during chronic use of AEDs is recommended.
A study of insulin resistance and pancreatic beta cell function in diabetics and non-diabetics
Authors: Chandrika A. Mary , Shanthi B.
Published: December 2020

Introduction and Aim: The most common non-communicable disease affecting large population is type 2 diabetes mellitus. This metabolic disorder is characterized by hyperglycemia with disturbances of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. The causes of diabetes mellitus can vary greatly but always include either defects in insulin secretion of the pancreas or the cells of the body not responding properly to the insulin produced or in both at some point in the course of the disease.

Materials and Methods: 200 participants who were divided into two groups, non-diabetics with and without family history of diabetes were involved in this study. The outcomes of fasting plasma glucose, postprandial plasma glucose, glycated hemoglobin, fasting plasma insulin, serum c-peptide, HOMA -IR, HOMA-B were compared between both the groups.

Results: All these parameters were significantly correlated between the groups with the level of significance p<0.05%. Non-diabetic off-springs of type 2 diabetes were found to have hyperinsulinemia, increased level of serum c-peptide level, moderate insulin resistance and pancreatic beta cell dysfunction than non-diabetics without the family history of diabetes. The fasting hyperinsulinemia, known to reflect decreased insulin sensitivity constitute the strongest independent predictor of type 2 diabetes.

Conclusion: The above findings show that insulin resistance is the primary abnormality in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

CT Urogram showed multiple large right renal cysts (BOSNIAK II). Patient was planned laparoscopic renal cyst deroofing. Due to suspicion of calyceal diverticulum, an intraoperative Retrograde Pyelogram (RGP) was done which showed calyceal diverticulum. Laparoscopic calyceal diverticulotomy with closure of communication was done. If only a cyst deroofing was done considering the CT finding alone, it would have ended up in post-operative complication of urinoma which may require a re-surgery. This case report emphasizes the importance of anticipating calyceal diverticulum and intraoperative attempts in the form of doing RGP to identify calyceal diverticulum which mimic renal cyst regardless of CT finding in suspected cases.

Keywords: Calyceal diverticulum; large renal cyst; retrograde pyelogram; laparoscopic calyceal; Diverticulotomy.
Memahami Penafsiran Ayat poLigami Melalui Pendekatan Qiraat Al-Qur’an : Penafsiran Qs. An-Nisa Ayat : 3
Authors: Widayati Romlah
Published: December 2020

Pemahaman terhadap qirâ`ât sebagai prasarat dalam tafsir, menurut Jalâluddin al-Suyûthi, disebabkan adanya versi bacaan (qirâ’ât) Al-Qur’an berbeda-beda, adakalanya perbedaan itu berkaitan dengan substansi lafazh atau berkaitan dengan lahjah atau dialek kebahasaan. Perbedaan qirâ’ât yang berkaitan dengan substansi lafazh bisa menimbulkan perbedaan makna, sementara perbedaan qirâ’ât yang berkaitan dengan lahjah atau dialek kebahasaan tidak menimbulkan perbedaan makna seperti bacaan tashîl, imâlah, taqlîl, tarqîq, tafkhîm dan sebagainya.

Penafsiran ayat ini melalui pendekatan qira’at Al-Qur’an baik yang nilai sanadnya mutawatir maupun syadz, Adanya perbedaan bacaan - yang tidak lain adalah sebagai suatu keringanan dan kemurahan dari Allah swt untuk hamba-Nya-,ternyata dapat ditemukan beberapa kemungkinan makna yang bisa memberikan spectrum penafsiran yang lebih luas. Mudah-mudahan semua membawa kemudahan bagi umat dalam memahami,menghayati,dan mengamalkan ajaran Al-Qur’an.
Inisiasi Etika Eksplorasi Pertambangan Perspektif Al-Qur’an
Authors: Febriani Nur Arfiyah , Yuniarni Iin
Published: December 2020

Penelitian ini menggagas etika eksplorasi pertambangan  perspektif Al-Qur’an yang merupakan bentuk kesadaran metaetika Ilahiyyah yang memiliki sifat kecerdasan reflektif, sebagai reaksi atas  adanya “hubungan intensionalitas metaetika teofanik“ yaitu hubungan/peran manusia di ranah pertambangan. Sebagai alur  pemikiran di dalam penelitian ini, berbasis pada akhlaq profetis  Rasulullah Shâllâlahu ‘Alaihi wasallam (Hadits Riwayat Abu Dawud) dan etika-ekofenomenologi yang digagas oleh Saras Dewi.

Temuan formulasi etika eksplorasi pertambangan perspektif  Al-Qur’an tersebut  merupakan  pengejewantahan  peran manusia yang holistik dan integralistik di dalam mengeksplorasi, memanfaatkan dan melindungi keberadaan sumber daya tambang, dengan pemahaman  akan norma-norma moral atas makna kata: Isti’mar, Independensi, Inter-dependensi,  Ihsan dan Itqan serta  Harmonis adil bersinergis.

            Penelitian ini merupakan deskripsi dari tafsîr bayânî dengan corak informatif-transformatif, yang juga merupakan sebuah dukungan terhadap al-tafsîr al-ilmî, beserta seluruh pengembangannya. Penulis menawarkan konformitas baru dalam memahami Al-Qur’an dengan menangkap gagasan utamanya (maghzâ) di balik makna literalnya, dilengkapi dengan pembuktian ilmiah yang teruji secara akademis, argumentatif, proporsional sesuai dengan konteks pengetahuan yang  berlaku, melalui tahapan ishtishab (juristic preference). Dengan menggunakan metode tafsîr maûdhu’i, dengan jenis penelitian deskriptif analitik kualitatif, melalui pendekatan ekofenomenologi dipadu dengan analisa dialektika kritis/jadal, dimana prinsip dualitas yang memiliki bentuk dualitas oposisional, antara dua hal yang bersifat material dan atau non material sebagai objeknya, keduanya dipertemukan oleh relasi intensionalitas.

Fiqih Anti Materialisme
Authors: Desya Mawar Monica
Published: December 2020

Materi merupakan inti dari segala yang ada di muka bumi, mulai dari manusia yang tercipta dari tanah, malaikat dari cahaya, iblis dari api, meja dari kayu, guci dari tanah liat dan lain sebagainya. Namun yang tidak patut dipikirkan adalah materi apa yang menyebabkan Allah tercipta. Begitulah paham yang diorasikan oleh tokoh filsuf Karl Marx dari Jerman dengan aliran Materialism, Kapitalisme, Dan Sosialisme yang bermuara pada Komunis yang tidak mempercayai akan adanya tuhan dan agama. Dalam Islam hal tersebut sangat bertolak belakang dengan syariat, baik dalam bidang ekonomi, sosial, dan ketuhanan.

Materialisme yang secara garis besar dikatakan sebagai aliran dengan menuhankan benda tanpa percaya adanya tuhan, dibantah oleh kisah Amr bin Jamuh yang menemukan bahwa sebuah benda tidak ada apa-apanya dibanding kekuasaan Allah. Tanpa disadari bahwa tuhan dan agama amat sangat berpengaruh dalam setiap tatanan kehidupan manusia. Dengan bisa lebih beriman pada Allah dan mentarbiyahkan hati agar terhindar dari penyakit hati maka kitapun sebagai seorang muslim akan mengatakan bahwa paham tersebut adalah tidak sesuai dengan ajaran agama Islam.

En griego, Boulouki significa “cuadrilla”, un grupo de viajeros; una palabra que evoca la tradición de las compañías itinerantes de canteros y artesanos. El objetivo de nuestro equipo es localizar y documentar a los portadores aún existentes de esos conocimientos tradicionales; y estudiarlos y difundirlos a través de talleres y proyectos de construcción que son organizados en colaboración con las comunidades locales y sus agentes. Este texto ofrece una descripción de un proyecto participativo y un programa educativo que tuvo lugar del 9 de septiembre al 31 de octubre de 2019 en el poblado de Plaka, dentro del área más extensa de Tzoumerka (Epiro, Grecia).
La restauración del Arco Romano de Medinaceli, Soria
Authors: De la Torre Martín-Romo Rodrigo , Rincón Arche José María
Published: December 2020

El Arco Romano de Medinaceli data del siglo II d.C. Erigido en el cerro que domina el valle del Jalón, frente al valle del Arbujuelo, es un conjunto pétreo de 13,10 metros de largo, 9,05 metros de alto y 2,02 metros de ancho. Fue declarado Monumento Nacional en 1930. Varias campañas arqueológicas han puesto de manifiesto que no se trataba sólo de una construcción honorífica, sino que estaba integrado en un lienzo de muralla romana anterior, por lo que tuvo también función como puerta de la ciudad de Ocilis. Su presencia se interpreta como un ennoblecimiento de la cerca.

Estas obras han sido concebidas en continuidad formal y constructiva con los modelos vernáculos tradicionales de la ciudad, contribuyendo a preservar el equilibrio y la legibilidad de una jerarquía urbana que, de lo contrario, se habría visto amenazada.

Responsible Design Practice for Collective Living
Authors: Mitra Anjan , Mitra Saptarshi
Published: December 2020

The Covid-19 pandemic is a cusp, a critical juncture which has brought into the foreground the inadequacies of our present development agendas, spatial practices and their manifestations. It is here and now that we, as professionals, need to question our roles and activities, moving forward to take ownership of our own practice, take cognisance of this call for change and reorient our philosophies, our strategies and our work to a more grounded, passionate and humane approach. Based on research into pre-industrial spatial practices and experiences of several of our projects, we seek a new paradigm - one that we call “Responsible Design Practice”.
El “trabadillo”, el matrimonio de la cal y el yeso: Una receta olvidada
Authors: Prieto Prieto Luis
Published: December 2020

El trabadillo, la mezcla de cal y yeso, es una técnica tradicional con una larga historia que ha sido muy empleada en la construcción hasta tiempos recientes. La combinación de ambos materiales conlleva la obtención de prestaciones que no pueden aportar por separado y es por tanto una solución óptima para muy diversas aplicaciones constructivas, especialmente aquellas que requieran combinar la deformabilidad de los yesos con la resistencia de la cal y aquellas que conlleven realizar elementos de elevado grosor. Hoy, sin embargo, se trata de una técnica apenas utilizada y prácticamente olvidada y sus vestigios materiales están siendo sistemáticamente eliminados en intervenciones contemporáneas realizadas desde el desconocimiento de su valor y sus propiedades.
