Authors: Vasilyev A. Yu. , Petrova E. B.
Published: July 2018

The purpose of the study was to assess the function of fibres of the left ventricle (LV) and its dynamics after revascularization in patients with non Q myocardial infarction using standard Echocardiography (EchoCG) and Velocity Vector Imaging (VVI). Materials and methods: 34 patients with MI were examined. Echocardiography studies were performed on the ultrasound scanner AcusonX 300 (Siemens), a 1–5 MHz transducer before and in early period after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Results. Standard EchoCG showed systolic LV dysfunction before and after CABG, contractile dysfunction in 51 (8%) segment before the operation, with subsequent recovery of the function of the 28 (54%) of them. The effect of MI on LV function using VVI showed reducing strain (S) and normal strain rate (SR) of the longitudinal fibers, decrease S and SR of circular fibers and normal function of radial fibers. After GABG S and SR of longitudinal fibers has not changed, S and SR of the circular fibres are decreased. The function of radial fibers are normal. The study established a relationship between the level of LDH-1 and SR of the circular fibers of the LV prior to CABG. Increased level of LDH-1 in the early period after CABG can be a predictor of reduction of S and SR circular fibers. Conclusion: In patients with it is necessary to analyze not only the longitudinal and radial fibers, but also circular.

Analytical method for prediction of the kinetics of survival (KS) and duration of the life expectancy (LE) in patients diagnosed with prostate cancer after combined radiation therapy was developed. It based on medical statistical data of the Federal state budget institution «Russian Research Center of Radiology and Surgical Technologies» (RRCRST) and the mathematical model of the kinetic aging theory of living systems. The quality of life indicators — KS and LE are determined by the solution of the differential equations describing the rate of aging homogeneous groups of patients and taking into account the four main stages of life from birth: «normal» (standard) life before the disease with probability of death for various reasons, life with additional cancer, determining at this stage the likely predominant cause of death from cancer, life is in the process of treatment and after its completion. Each stage of life has its own corresponding parameters of the mathematical model of aging rate, representing the competition of two opposite processes: the accumulation of damages of structural and functional relationships of the organism and their recovery speed. Their rate of destruction with cancer increases. The parameters of the mathematical model are determined by statistical processing of health indicators collected in banks demographic data CDR NES and medical data RRCRST. The main ideology of the developed model based on statistical correlation with survival in the published works of experts of the RRCRST. For patients with prostate cancer is the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) doubling time (PSADT), for patients with breast cancer is the value of S-index (indicator of the degree of radiation-induced DNA decomposition of blood samples in vitro) before treatment of patients. The model is tested on the example of prediction KS and LE in patients of RRCRST treated with radiation therapy that were grouped according to similar values of PSADT and S-index. The ability to improve forecast accuracy by reducing the number of individuals in the group due to the need to have a health and demographic information for each patient and, above all, on the rate of growth of cancer.

PROSPECTS OF COGNITIVE AND ECOLOGICAL LINGUISTICS
Authors: Prihodko Ganna , Galaidin Andrii
Published: July 2018

This article deals with the development of ecological linguistics as a new object of study in modern linguistics. It examines the peculiarities of language research approaches as an instrument of harmonious lifestyle of the people as well as an important means of social contact in the international research. The anthropocentric and eco-centric lines may be distinguished as competitive modes in the development of modern humanitarian sciences for the reason that they introduce different approaches to investigating processes and results of human activity. The subject of ecolinguistics is the interaction between language, man as a linguistic person and his environment. Language is considered as an integral component of the chain of relationships between man, society and nature. Special attention is paid to the notion “meaning” from the point of view of ecological linguistics. It is stressed that meaning is the link connecting the representations of interaction with the verbal and non-verbal objects in the mind of the person.

TODAY’S THREATS OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE CONTEXT OF PROTECTION OF THE RIGHT TO LIFE
Authors: Koperek Jerzy , Koperek Adam , Kome Abraham
Published: July 2018

In the modern world protecting the right to life encounters various obstacles. Personalistic ethics encouraging attitudes pro vita is also taking the dialogue with contemporary philosophical and political currents, including those that do not accept the integral concept of man, but rather they are in favor of his reductionist vision, which in turn it lead to reduced ability to protect human rights, despite their proclamation as the rights of individuals.
Appearing in this position „anthropological error”, it also leads to a reductionist vision of social structures such as family, society, nation or state. Moreover, such a vision of man and the world around him, it also determines the constitutional dimension of the state. Consequently, this leads to the creation and operation of various forms of democracy that instead create conditions for legal protection of the right to life from conception to natural death, legalize abortion and euthanasia. This is a serious contemporary threat to the right to life.

Women newspaper editors in NZ: Short term love affair
Authors: Strong Catherine
Published: July 2018

New Zealand has had three women prime ministers, and the first country in the world to give women a vote, but there is still a gender gap in leadership in the traditionally staid arena of daily newspapers. One-third of the country’s daily newspapers have never had a female editor. The gender imbalance is significant in an industry that still breaks the majority of news items, and is influential in public information. The low ratio of women editors is incongruous with the fact the majority of journalism students are female, and a large number new hires are women. This longitudinal study has interviewed every woman who has held the position of editor, which totals only 15. The good news is that currently there are more women in editorships than ever before, the sad news is that this still represents only 29 percent of daily editors.  The attitudinal interviews show the editors love the job, but quit after only a few short years, but this may be changing.
OBITUARY: Yasmine Ryan—a sketch of an extraordinary journalist’s international career
Authors: Manning Selwyn
Published: July 2018

There is yet much to learn from journalist Yasmine Ryan’s experience, who died tragically in conflicted circumstances in Istanbul, Turkey, on 30 November 2017 after a stellar career reporting in international conflict zones, from the Pacific to the Middle East. One element is relevant to journalism and communications curriculum. We all live in complex times, and for those who choose to exercise their professional craft in regions of conflict, there is a clear need to develop an awareness of how dangerous situations impact on us. The author of this article argues that professional development in this specific area of journalist safety must be designed to provide the individual an ability to self-assess and determine what kind of help is needed and how to access it before a crisis (whether internal or external) erupts.
REVIEW: Intervention in Aboriginal communities examined

‘And there’ll be NO dancing’: Perspectives on policies impacting Indigenous Australia since 2007, edited by Elisabeth Baehr and Barbara Schmidt-Haberkamp. Cambridge, UK: Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2017. 354 pp.  ISBN 9781443898638

‘THE PAST is now with us; it never went away.’

The 2007 Intervention into the lives of Aboriginal people living in the Northern Territory was a low point in the relationship between the Australian government and Indigenous people. As one of the Aboriginal authors in No Dancing, Warraimay historian Victoria Grieves puts it, the Northern Territory Emergency Response (NTER), as the Intervention was officially known, ‘leaves no doubt about the relationship of Aboriginal people to the settler colonial state’ (p.  89).
Bearing Witness 2017: Year 2 of a Pacific climate change storytelling project
Authors: Robie David
Published: July 2018

In 2016, the Pacific Media Centre responded to the devastation and tragedy wrought in Fiji by Severe Tropical Cyclone Winston by initiating the Bearing Witness journalism project and dispatching two postgraduate students to Viti Levu to document and report on the impact of climate change (Robie & Chand, 2017). This was followed up in 2017 in a second phase of what was hoped would become a five-year mission and expanded in future years to include other parts of the Asia-Pacific region. This project is timely, given the new 10-year Strategic Plan 2017-2026 launched by the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) in March and the co-hosting by Fiji of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP23) climate change conference in Bonn, Germany, during November. The students dispatched in 2017 on the  ‘bearing witness’ journalism experiential assignment to work in collaboration with the Pacific Centre for the Environment and Sustainable Development (PaCE-SD) and the Regional Journalism Programme at the University of the South Pacific included a report about the relocation of a remote inland village of Tukuraki. They won the 2017 media and trauma prize of the Asia-Pacific Dart Centre, an agency affiliated with the Columbia School of Journalism. This article is a case study assessing the progress with this second year of the journalism project and exploring the strategic initiatives under way for more nuanced and constructive Asia-Pacific media storytelling in response to climate change.
Coverage of extreme weather events and natural hazards in Pacific Island Countries: The need for media capacity-building
Authors: Singh Shailendra , Naidu Vijay
Published: July 2018

There would be little disagreement over the media’s crucial role in reporting extreme weather events and natural hazards, which have become more commonplace in Pacific Island Countries (PICs). However, for various reasons explored in this article, the media have generally failed to satisfactorily cover the unfolding of natural hazards and disasters. Using Fiji as an example, this article discusses media coverage of various cyclones, and the gaps in the reporting. The article argues that more training and capacity building for media personnel should be undertaken to ensure that people are well informed and prepared as they face the brunt of more frequent and intense extreme weather events.
Synchronizacja cykli koniunkturalnych wybranych państw byłej Jugosławii ze strefą euro
Authors: Ravinskij Daniel
Published: July 2018

Motywacja: Zgodnie z teorią optymalnych obszarów walutowych R. Mundella, synchronizacja cykli koniunkturalnych jest niezbędna dla uczestników strefy walutowej. Kryterium to nie jest wymienione w formalnych wymaganiach przystąpienia państw członkowskich Unii Europejskiej (UE) do strefy euro, więc jest często pomijane w analizie przygotowań państw członkowskich do przyjęcia wspólnej waluty.
Cel: Celem niniejszego artykułu jest analiza stopnia synchronizacji koniunktury czterech państw byłej Jugosławii z koniunkturą strefy euro. Państwa byłej Jugosławii są na różnym etapie integracji europejskiej i konwergencji z gospodarką unijną, więc stopień synchronizacji cykli koniunkturalnych między państwami również jest inny.
Materiały i metody: W niniejszym artykule użyto szeregi czasowe PKB i produkcji przemysłowej strefy euro i czterech państw byłej Jugosławii (Słowenii, Chorwacji, Serbii i Macedonii), które zdekomponowano używając dwukrotnie filtru górnoprzepustowego Hodricka–Prescotta. Następnie zidentyfikowano cykle klasyczne, cykle odchyleń i punkty zwrotne, które były podstawą analizy synchronizacji cykli.
Wyniki: Wsród analizowanych państw byłej Jugosławii, gospodarka Słowenii jest dobrze zsynchronizowana z gospodarką strefy euro. W przypadku Chorwacji wystąpiła słaba synchronizacja w kategorii produkcji przemysłowej. W przypadku Serbii i Macedonii wykazano dość słabą synchronizację w każdej kategorii, zwłaszcza PKB, na co wskazywał niższy poziom współczynnika korelacji oraz dodatkowe cykle koniunkturalne.
Nietzsche e a crítica ao humanismo na educação
Authors: Martins Vilmar
Published: July 2018

A proposta deste texto é analisar a crítica de Nietzsche à concepção de sujeito, seus desdobramentos em uma crítica ao humanismo e, a partir da crítica, traçar possibilidades educativas que podem ser construídas via desconstrução do entendimento do humano enquanto sujeito. Nesta análise utilizo metodologicamente a concepção nietzschiana de genealogia enquanto interpretação que se opõe ao caráter absoluto dos valores, tanto quanto a seu caráter relativo ou utilitário. As conclusões de tal análise certamente são provisórias, contingenciais e circunstanciais, sendo assim, para além de concluir, experimento um pensar a partir do “devir”, um pensar inocente e afirmativo que elabora “verdades” e valorações nos encontros produzidos pela vida. Pensamento “descomprometido” com o todo, sem culpa e sem visar recompensa, acima de tudo um pensar que afirme a vida.

Published: July 2018

OBJECTIVE To describe animal owners' experiences with palliative radiation therapy (PRT) of pets and identify factors influencing satisfaction with their pets' treatment.

DESIGN Retrospective, cross-sectional study.

SAMPLE 118 owners of dogs, cats, or rabbits.

PROCEDURES Medical records were searched to identify animals that underwent PRT between 2004 and 2013. Signalment, tumor-related data, and outcome information were recorded. Owners completed an electronic survey assessing satisfaction with treatment (ie, satisfaction with the decision for their pet to undergo PRT and indication that they would choose PRT for their pet again), expectations regarding PRT, and perceptions of their pets' quality of life (QOL) and signs of discomfort from acute adverse radiation effects. Additional data regarding practical aspects of treatment, pet death, communications with veterinarians, and owner demographics were collected. Variables were tested for association with measures of owner satisfaction.

RESULTS 92 of 116 (79%) owners were satisfied with the decision to have their pets undergo PRT. Most (92/118 [78%]) owners reported their pet's QOL improved after PRT; these owners were significantly more likely to be satisfied than those who did not report improved QOL. Owners who perceived their pets had discomfort from adverse radiation effects (38/116 [33%]) were significantly less likely to be satisfied than owners who did not report this observation. Measures of satisfaction were not associated with patient survival time. Twenty-one of 118 (18%) owners indicated they expected PRT would cure their pet's tumor.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Results suggested that short life expectancy should not deter recommendation of PRT for pets. Protocols that minimize risk of acute adverse effects may be advantageous. Veterinarians should attempt to ensure that owners understand the goals of PRT.
Survey of human-horse relationships and veterinary care for geriatric horses
Authors: Mueller Megan Kiely , Sween Carolyn , Frank Nicholas , Paradis Mary Rose
Published: July 2018

OBJECTIVE To assess relationships between horse owners (or lessees) and geriatric or nongeriatric horses and to investigate factors influencing veterinary care decision-making.

DESIGN Descriptive, cross-sectional, survey-based study.

SAMPLE 2,879 people who owned or leased ≥ 1 horse.

PROCEDURES Participants were recruited through social media and online horse forums to participate in an online survey about their horses, including measures of attachment, veterinary care decision-making, and experiences surrounding the death of a horse. Data were collected for primary horses (those respondents interacted with most) and secondary horses. Horses were further categorized as geriatric (≥ 20 years of age) and nongeriatric.

RESULTS Geriatric primary horses were considered companion animals, retired, or used as part of a business significantly more frequently, and described as competition horses significantly less frequently, than nongeriatric horses. Geriatric horses were owned or leased significantly longer than nongeriatric horses, but the degree of respondents' attachment did not differ for geriatric versus nongeriatric horses. When respondents reported the death of a horse in the previous year, euthanasia was associated with higher levels of bereavement than death by other means. Death of geriatric horses most commonly followed a chronic illness and was associated with significantly higher levels of bereavement than death of nongeriatric horses. Among factors influencing decisions regarding expensive or long-term medical care, the horse's ability to lead a comfortable life was ranked highest. Respondents with geriatric horses made numerous accommodations for their care.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Results provided important initial information about the relationships people have with geriatric horses. Understanding how individuals perceive their horses and how they make decisions regarding complex veterinary care is critical in informing effective client communication.

OBJECTIVE To determine how veterinarians' attire affected clients' perceptions and trust in the small animal emergency medicine setting.

DESIGN Cross-sectional study.

SAMPLE 154 clients of a 24-hour small animal emergency clinic in a rural location.

PROCEDURES A survey was administered to clients in the waiting room over a 1-month period to elicit their impressions of veterinarians' attire in various clinical scenarios and whether that attire would affect their perceptions. Respondents completed the survey after examining photographs of 1 male and 1 female veterinarian in 5 styles of attire (business, professional, surgical, clinical, and smart casual).

RESULTS 83 (53.9%) respondents were female, and 71 (46.1%) were male; age was evenly distributed. Across all clinical scenarios, the most common response was no preference regarding the way a male or female veterinarian was dressed and that this attire would have no effect on the respondents' trust in their veterinarian. Most respondents were indifferent or preferred that their veterinarians not wear neckties and white coats. Twenty-six percent (40/154) of respondents indicated that they believed their veterinarian's attire would influence their opinion of the quality of care their pet received.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE In this small animal emergency medicine setting, most clients indicated no preference regarding their veterinarian's attire, yet approximately one-fourth indicated this attire would influence their perception of the quality of care their pet received. Further studies are warranted in other practice settings and locations to determine whether these findings are generalizable or unique to this particular setting.
Eco-Economics in Cities and Rural Areas
Authors: Zvirgzdiņš Jānis , Plotka Kaspars , Geipele Sanda
Published: July 2018

Economic models are built primarily following the classical economic theories, but a challenge to build good models with classical theories is needed to define the exact value of the Earth, which is hardly definable. Quite often national gross product indicator calculation reuses the same performance indicators, where the resource and income distribution system is not linked to production factors. The resource and income distribution system is primarily associated with low productivity (execution of a sales plan, execution of a profit plan, profitability level, increase in market share, personnel turnover rate, hours worked per employee). Changes in the productive and economic structures of the markets result in new innovative growth patterns which, based on customer motivation, are linked to the concentration of capital in regional and national markets, the growth of transnational markets and the development of technology. At the same time, extensive economic development through natural resources leads to deforestation, landscape changes, desertification, swamping and soil fertility renewal. So far, it often has been assumed that economic growth depends on the use of natural resources, and natural resources are unlimited. The results are “resource crisis”: resources are running out and resource prices are rising, thus invalidating a particular model. On the other hand, the eco-economy approach is a sustainable future for the economic modelling. The principle of eco-economy is based on a production system, which relies on re-cyclicality (the basis is the production of zero waste production). For this to happen, a transition to a completely new mind-set is needed. The research results were previously approbated during the graduate meeting of the Baltic DBU scholarship holders from 4 to 6 May 2018 in Latvia.
Development of Public Administration and Governance in Central and Eastern Europe: Content Analysis of The NISPAcee Journal
Authors: Kotnik Žiga , Kovač Polonca
Published: July 2018

Public administration (PA) as a discipline and public governance as a closely related concept have been developing constantly and rather rapidly in recent years. A particularly lively progress is characteristic of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), owing to its post-communist legacy and subsequent transition. This paper outlines the mainstream topics of PA development within The NISPAcee Journal, which covers the CEE region and beyond. The principal objective of the paper is to systematically and quantitatively codify a series of text documents that comprises 142 articles published between 2008 and 2016 in The NISPAcee Journal, in order to identify the characteristics of PA development in the region. The paper investigates three hypotheses: first, whether the quality of the articles changed throughout 2008 – 2016; second, whether The NISPAcee Journal attests a multidisciplinary orientation in terms of scientific contributions from different disciplines, and third, whether The NISPAcee Journal reflects the West-East knowledge transfer among PA academia. The three hypotheses were tested against seven analytical dimensions. The research findings reveal that governance is the prevailing cognitive paradigmatic approach of The NISPAcee Journal. Europeanisation is the common thread of almost all articles, with a particular emphasis on the ideological elements of the Neo-Weberian and New Public Management doctrines. Qualitative methodology is still the prevailing research method, and the occurrence of mixed methodology is rare. The topical orientation of the analysed manuscripts is very diverse. A considerable emphasis is placed on the analysis and development of PA as a discipline. The majority of researchers originate from CEE countries and focus their studies on Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and the Caucasus. Scientific partnership between the Eastern and the Western academic worlds is still scarce. Given the low level of exchange of best academic practices between Western and Eastern Europe, research results indicate the need for an increased internationalisation of the NISPAcee Journal and a more holistic approach to tackle the future challenges of global and regional PA and public governance more adequately.
Recreational Development in the Settlements of the Warta Valley in Wielkopolska
Authors: Januchta-Szostak Anna , Karaśkiewicz Agata
Published: July 2018

Riverside areas have substantial recreational and tourist assets, but their potential in the settlements of Wielkopolska is underused due to difficult access to the river and the poor development of the embankments. The aim of the research is to analyse the functional-spatial structure and the development of River Warta areas in the settlements of Wielkopolska with respect to their usefulness in recreation. Particular attention is paid to accessibility and the location of recreational infrastructure in the Warta Valley. Out of the eleven Wielkopolska settlements which were included, only in four – Konin, Śrem, Poznań and Sieraków – had sections of embankment boulevards been built. In the riverside areas there are few recreational facilities used in connection with the close proximity of the river. However, a great tourist asset of the Warta Valley is the Great Waterway Loop of Wielkopolska, which operates successfully due to the growing number of harbours and marinas in all the settlements included in the study.

Authors: Gülen Salih , Coşkun İsa
Published: July 2018

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of in ovo injection of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC) to fertile Ross 308 broiler eggs or dietary supplementation on growth performance, internal organ development, gut histomorphology and cecum microbiota during 14 d of growing period. This study was designed as 2×2 factorial experimental design. Fertile 92 Ross 308 eggs were injected with SC solution 0.2ml at 18d of hatch and 90 eggs non-injected as control, afterward dietary SC supplementation was applied during the 14 d to broiler diet. In this study, 160 broiler chicks were used in four treatment groups at 10 replicate for each treatment group and 4 chicks for each replicates. Treatment groups were A) in ovo SC injection + dietary SC supplementation, B) in ovo SC injection + basal diet, C) no injection + dietary SC supplementation, D) no injection + basal diet as control. Live weight, feed consumption, feed conversion ratio and gut histomorphology, caecum microbiota, internal organ weight were recorded at 14 days of age. Live weight gain increased in C group than in the D group. Feed consumption, feed conversion ratio and internal organ weights were not affected by the treatments. Villi length and villi width increased in A group among the other treatment groups in jejunum, villi length increased in A and C groups among the other groups in ileum. Villi length/villi width ratio increased in A group than in the D group in ileum, was not different in jejunum. LAB counts in caecum were higher in A group than those of C and D groups, but was not different from B group. Enterobactericaea count was lower in A and B group than in the D group, was not different from C group. To conclude, results showed that dietary Saccharomyces cerevisiae supplementation increased broiler growth at 14 day by increasing villi development and improving gut health.
The Influence of the Graphite Content and Milling Time on the Hardness, Compressive Strength and Wear Volume of Copper - Graphite Composites Prepared Via Powder Metallurgy

Published: July 2018

Copper – graphite composites are widely used in sliding bearings and brushes due to their excellent thermal and electrical conductivities and high wear resistance. The aim of this research is to study the Influence of the graphite content and milling time on hardness, compressive strength, wear volume and friction coefficient of copper - graphite composites that prepared via powder metallurgy. A powder mixture containing 0,5,10,15,20 and 25 vol% graphite was milled for 1,3,5,7 and 9 hours. The milled mixture was cold pressed at 700 MPa for 30 second, followed by sintering at 900 ℃ for one hour. It was found through this work that increasing milling time results an appreciate increase in hardness and radial compressive strength. Slight reduction in wear volume and slight increase in the coefficient of friction for all compositions except that for pure copper in which a considerable increase in wear volume and decrease in the coefficient of friction was observed. On the other hand, increasing the graphite volume fraction increases the composite hardness, to reach an optimum value, and decreases the radial compressive strength. A great decrease in both wear volume and coefficient of friction was observed due to increasing the graphite content up to 25 vol%. Finally, a graphite, cast iron chips and fireclay sintering configuration was found to be an effective procedure which minimizes oxidation to levels comparative with those observed previously by sintering in argon or hydrogen atmospheres.

Published: July 2018

The formation and characterization of nematically-ordered CNF materials (maximum order parameter f ≈ 0.8) has been studied by polarized optical microscopy, small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), and rheological measurements as a function of CNF concentration. The wide range of CNF concentrations, from 0.5 wt% to 4.9 wt%, is obtained using osmotic dehydration with PEG. At concentrations >1.05 wt% the CNF suspension crosses an isotropic-anisotropic transition that is accompanied by a dramatic increase of the optical birefringence. The resulting nanostructures are depicted by a hierarchical model with mass fractal structures that converge into co-existing nematically-ordered regions and network-like regions, in which the correlation distances decrease upon increasing concentration. The use of rapid, upscaleble osmotic dehydration is an effective method to increase the concentration of CNF suspensions while partly circumventing the gel formation. The facile formation of highly ordered fibers can result in materials with interesting macroscopic properties.
Análisis descriptivo del fenómeno de la delincuencia juvenil en Colombia (segunda parte)
Authors: Quiroz Monsalvo Aroldo
Published: July 2018

El fenómeno de la delincuencia juvenil tiene unos motivos objetivos1 —entre ellos pobreza, falta de oportunidades, desigualdad, baja escolaridad y la ausencia de una política pública sobre salud sexual y reproductiva que controle el crecimiento demográfico—, presentes en la sociedad colombiana en los últimos cuarenta años, y que van acompañados del conflicto armado interno, el surgimiento del narcotráfico, la carencia de fuerza pública en algunos municipios y ciudades, las disputas por el territorio entre las organizaciones criminales y la ineficiencia del Sistema Nacional de Bienestar Familiar, situaciones que no solo lo explican sino que han estimulado su crecimiento. La presente disertación describe cómo es este fenómeno y aporta información que puede ser fuente formal para futuras propuestas legislativas y para quienes definen la política criminal del Estado en este aspecto.
