Aligning With Small Acts of Self-Correction in Violence-Focused Therapy With Men
Authors: Todd Nick , Belt Wade
Published: January 2024

Treatment of men who have been abusive has often been coercive in its own way, relying as it does on a stereotypical representation of the men as bent solely on domination and destruction. In this article, we propose that the men are much more complex in their presentation of self and adept at transitioning between effects-based and response-based representations of their actions as they negotiate changing social and conversational contexts. We introduce the concept of a moral wobble between these two discursive domains as men seek to align their actions with their own values and their understanding of prevailing social mores. These small acts of self-correction provide an opportunity to join the men in their own anti-violence initiatives. Our goal is to offer front-line workers a framework for responding effectively regardless of whether service users choose to represent themselves as taking or deflecting responsibility for their violence.
Introduction: “Family Therapy” With Individuals
Authors: Fraser J. Scott
Published: January 2024

Some articles mark watershed shifts in how we think and how we approach and interact with topics at hand. They not only mark the beginning of what some might describe as a paradigm shift, but they also initiate what in hindsight is a cascade of new ideas and approaches. In this case, the topic at hand was the practice of family therapy, yet its influences rippled across a wide range of approaches to human problems and their resolution. John Weakland's article “’Family Therapy’ With Individuals” is one of those articles.
On Socialism and Popular Participation in Cuba
Authors: Fernández Ríos Olga
Published: January 2024

Several aspects of the development of the Cuban socialist transition are analyzed with a focus on popular participation and control as the capacity and activity of the great majorities to act on the power relations and, at different levels, shape up the social, economic, political, and cultural development of the nation. Evaluating in depth the state of popular participation in the current context — characterized by the process of updating the socialist development model — requires attention to the historical background. At once, the challenges faced and the conditions required for strengthening the political power of the grassroots and ensuring the continuity of the Cuban Revolution are to be pondered.
Cuba: Achievements and Crossroads
Authors: Katz Claudio
Published: January 2024

The destructive obsession of the United States with Cuba persists after six decades, and the blockade continues with as much intensity as the counterrevolutionary plots. The reforms to reverse the stagnant economy have been postponed for fear of undermining the social gains of the revolution. However, a mixture of market and combined forms of accumulation with state protagonism is unavoidable to recover growth. The recent protests reflected these tensions, which the government managed by neutralizing the right-wing exploitation of social unrest. Renewing the political system would allow processing the economic and social mutation underway. The feat of sustaining the Revolution is recognized internationally by the significant regional current of solidarity and ignored by social democracy, which covers imperial harassment with a polite mask. The experience of Eastern Europe has debunked the illusion of a socialist denouement from actions sponsored by the right. Left critiques must offer viable alternatives based on contemporary experiences.
Labor Relations in Reform-Era Cuba
Authors: Piñeiro Harnecker Camila
Published: January 2024

As part of the model-updating reform started in 2011, there has been a significant shift in Cuba's labor relations. Although the share of state jobs in the labor force — in public institutions and enterprises — is the largest, non-state jobs dominate if enterprises alone are considered. In the non-state sector, self- and family employment predominate, but new private enterprises are growing fast while cooperatives and their membership decrease. These changes in the employment structure have greatly impacted Cuban society, with growing inequalities in income, labor conditions, and rights, gender, skin color. The new preponderance of private wage relations has severe implications for Cuban socialism. To be consistent with the agreed-on documents guiding the reform and with the sacrifices made by generations of Cubans to build a post-capitalist society, the Cuban Revolution must build a new socialist hegemony inside workplaces and beyond. The non-state sector cannot be regulated and guided toward satisfying the needs and aspirations of the Cuban people only through norms, incentive policies, and administrative measures. A new hegemony of socialist relations is fundamental to secure a future for the Cuban Revolution.
Community Organizing for Neighborhood Transformation: Facing Evolving Challenges
Authors: Lopez McBean Maritza
Published: January 2024

The Integral Neighborhood Transformation Workshops (TTIBs, Spanish acronym) are community organizations that use a comprehensive and participatory work approach, involving government, social institutions, and the population in the transformations each community needs. These innovative forms of community involvement in today's revolutionary Cuba deserve greater visibility. They have received renewed attention as the government revitalizes initiatives to transform vulnerable communities, especially after the protests on July 11, 2021. Their origins, social significance, main functions, forms in which they structure themselves, outstanding challenges in the way to their sustained success, and main results require a close examination.
Nature’s Voice
Authors: Carmen Flys-Junquera
Published: January 2024

Despite growing ecological concerns and the rise of schools such as ecocriticism and ecofeminism, literary critics who call for an increased ecological awareness in literature and a greater appreciation for the genre of nature writing fail to take into account the rich vein to be found in Chicano literature, where nature and la tierra are central themes. One well-known example is the work of Rudolfo Anaya, whose initial trilogy won critical acclaim in part because of the mythic forces of his landscapes. However, his more recent Alburquerque Quartet, in which the latter three novels constitute a detective series, has failed to attract critical attention. This article illustrates how Anaya subverts the dominant cultural ethos in this quartet by hybridizing literary genres and proposing an alternative worldview, one in which nature is given a central role.
The Politics of Blood:
Authors: López Lozano Miguel
Published: January 2024

In The Rag Doll Plagues ( 1992), Alejandro Morales employs the epidemic as a metaphor for sociocultural transformations initiated with the conquest of the Americas and continuing into the twenty-first century. The present essay centers on the trope of blood-in terms of the representation of plagues and the possibilities ofmiscegenation- in order to show how The Rag Doll Plagues highlights the fear of intercultural contact and the shortcomings of concepts such as mestizaje to resolve social inequalities, advocating instead a multicultural agenda able to address the socioeconomic complexities of contemporary society. Morales’s assessment of different forms of transculturation is germane to current debates on cultural hybridity, issues of race and class, and the use of science and technology as forms of social control.
La vuelta a Tijuana en seis escritores
Authors: Palaversich Diana
Published: January 2024

This essay maps the territory of Tijuana through the writings of six authors who live in this city. Their works subvert the three most common myths about the city: Tijuana as a city of vice, as a city of transit, and as a laboratory of postmodernity. This essay also critiques the exclusively metaphorical approach to the border that prevails among U.S. scholars and presents it as a concrete sociopolitical space imbued with meaning, history, and a sense of belonging
Poetics, Politics, and the Life of Latino Catholics in California
Authors: Sandell David P.
Published: January 2024

This essay explores poetics and politics among Latino Catholics in Fresno, California, who draw on a tradition of storytelling and religious ritual to mitigate the hardships that result from their marginal social assignment. Storytelling and ritual allow them to recognize where faith and daily life intersect, exposing the tensions—including those caused by poverty, violence, and isolation—that separate one person from another. This combination of faith and poetics also allows them to cultivate the harmonies that bring people together. The essay focuses on stories told by Eva González, who relates her family’s dreams and disappointments and demonstrates the importance of her beliefs. It weaves together Chicano, religious, and performance-studies scholarship with philosophy, ethnography, and empirical research. As much spiritual as it is historical, psychological, and ethical, the essay is choreographed to produce a textual performance that introduces readers to the narrative process of making life whole.
Zorro Down Under
Authors: Carpio Genevieve
Published: January 2024

During the interwar years (1918–39), California’s characteristic verandas, archways, and red tile roofs spread to Australia. Originally, Spanish Colonial Revival architecture was popularized in California alongside what historians have called the “Spanish fantasy past,” a romanticized Spanish California that linked the state’s modern rise to an Anglo-American future and fixed Mexican and Indigenous populations in a bygone era. Looking to the movement of the Spanish fantasy past from California to Australia via “Spanish Mission” style offers new insights for Chicana/o studies. The fantasy past serves as a powerfully fl exible racial script that helps make sense of race relations far beyond its point of origin and connects seemingly mundane choices about home design to ongoing processes of settler colonialism in Pacific communities. As an eager adopter of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture during a period when the government was actively redistributing land, Australia illustrates how the Spanish fantasy past has been translated and how Chicana/o studies frameworks informed by critical Indigenous studies can provide insights into relational forms of race making and colonialism.
An Erotics of Eugenics
Authors: Trigos Mercedes
Published: January 2024

This essay analyzes moments of erotic tension in the work of Leonor Villegas de Magnón through eugenic feminist and settler colonialist critiques. Combining close reading and archival research, it conceptualizes her work as a transborder eugenic erotics, arguing that her feminist consciousness develops within translation and with a particular attention to erotics, which in her works is often tied to representations of racial and class difference informed by eugenics. The first section analyzes a short story from her archives, “Lingerie. Lingerie. Lingerie.,” published in the Laredo Morning Record on September 10, 1920. The second section uses the discourses of eugenics and settler colonialism to place this reading in conversation with her better-known autobiographical novel La rebelde and its English self-translation The Rebel, both published posthumously. The comparative analysis elucidates the collapse and overlap of eugenic and settler colonial ideologies atthe turn of the twentieth century, seeking to complement and complicate the version of feminism we see in Villegas de Magnón’s most widely read texts, a feminism that has been largely readin celebratory terms in Chicanx and Latinx studies.
In Search of an Authentic Voice
Authors: López Morín José R.
Published: January 2024

Because the Ford Foundation needed guidance, expertise, and culturally relevant insight in working with the Chicano academic communities in the late 1960s and early 1970s, it conducted a social and educational experiment when it hired Abel Amaya Coronado in 1972 as a program offi cer in higher education and research. Although scholars have investigated the agency’s efforts at this time, this is the first study to offer the perspective of a Ford Foundation insider. Taking a micro-historical approach, this article chronicles Amaya’s personal and professional journey to detail and investigate how he impacted—and perhaps even shaped—specific societal events, often separated in time and space. I reason that the micro-history method allows for moments of illumination that fill in gaps and enrich our understanding of the foundation’s involvement in the Chicano movement for social progress. By documenting Amaya’s role in guiding this group’s professional development in teaching, administration, and research, I conclude that his leadership clearly benefited the Ford Foundation and Chicana and Chicano academic communities.
“Let the Atrocious Images Haunt Us”
Authors: Anzzolin Kevin
Published: January 2024

The last twenty years have seen a proliferation of documentaries and films dealing with the ongoing humanitarian crisis at the Mexico-US border, some of which portray the migrant body. This article examines three films routinely included in ethnic studies courses, anthropology courses, and Latin American studies courses: Dan DeVivo and Joseph Mathew’s Crossing Arizona (2006), Rebecca Cammisa’s Which Way Home (2009), and Marc Silver’s Who Is Dayani Cristal? (2013). Of particular interest are the films’ rhetorical devices, imagery, and affective charge—how they politically engage viewers. Guided by extant scholarship on stereotypical depictions of the migrant body, the essay’s first part critiques Which Way Home as buttressed by necroclichés, defined here as rhetorical devices that situate migrants as condemned to slaughter. The essay’s second part activates diverse theoretical interventions to show how migrant lives—even when indelibly associated with images of broken bodies—become poignant to the viewer. Notably, with Which Way Home and Who Is Dayani Cristal?, the inclusion of religious motifs renders the migrant body “grievable.” By taking to heart the profound relationship that Latinx communities have traditionally maintained with Christianity’s redemptive message, this article interrogates whether entirely secular arguments can be elaborated to confront the Borderlands’ humanitarian catastrophe.

Curculigo latifolia is a herbaceous plant that is abundant on the islands of Java, Sumatra and Kalimantan. C. latifolia has not been well explored. The research to determine the phytochemical content of C. latifolia, to analyze the organoleptic sweetness level of C. latifolia fruit and to analyze the anti-diabetic potential of C. latifolia plant extracts on  diabetic mice. The study was conducted experimentally using  6 treatment levels and 4 replications. Prior to treatment, mice were induced hyperglycemia using alloxan 150 mg/kg WB were induced subcutaneously. The treatment being tested was oral Ethanol crude extract (ECE) for 28 days with 400 mg/kg WB, namely: G1: oral mineral water; G2: glibenclamide ; G3: ECE leaf; G4: ECE root; G5: ECE fruit and G6: ECE tree. Blood sugar levels were measured at 0, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after oral ECE. Therefore, respondents stated that after consuming the fruit, they had a sweet-tasting and taste-modifying mineral water with a strength of 82.40 ± 8.36%, but the fruit extract did not show any sweet-tasting and taste-modifying. ANOVA results showed that oral ECE administration had a significant effect low on blood sugar levels. the HSD test was carried out with a 95% confidence level. ECE C. latifolia showed positive results on the tests of flavonoids, phenolics, saponins, alkaloids, triterpenoids and tannins. G4 was effective in reducing sugar levels after short time and  G5 for 28 days (long time). C. latifolia have pharmacology effects to lower sugar levels and has taste modifying to sweetness.

Published: January 2024

Maman is a traditional plant frequently used as food by people in Melayu Rokan of Riau Province. Morphological detection indicates that the scientific name of maman is Cleome gynandra L.  The objective of this study is to confirm the taxonomic status of maman from Riau basedon matK and trnL-trnL-trnF intergenic spacer (IGS) sequences. Methods utilized in this study included sampling, DNA extraction, PCR, electrophoresis, sequencing, and data analysis. The fresh leaves were picked up from Rokan Hulu Regency, Riau Province. In this study, the matK and trnL-trnL-trnF IGS sequences of maman with a length of 754 bp and 938 bp, respectively, had been obtained. The BLASTn analysis based on both sequences showed that maman had 100% similarity to Gynandropsis gynandra. Cleome gynandra was synonymous with G. gynandra. There were 49 nucleotide variations, 16 critical nucleotides, and there were no indels in matK. Meanwhile, in trnL-trnL-trnF IGS there were 181 nucleotide variations, 13 critical nucleotides, and 61 indels. In conclusion, this study succeeded in confirming the taxonomic status of maman from Riau as C. gynandra syn. G. gynandra. The result enriched the abundance of DNA barcode sequences of this plant in GenBank which is useful for the molecular identification.
Vasculitis–panniculitis mimicking unresolved diabetic foot ulcer
Authors: Soemitha Debby Christiana , Mulya Deshinta Putri , Sinorita Hemi
Published: January 2024

Diabetes foot ulcer (DFU) is a common long-term complication of diabetes. Intractable chronic wounds to standard care of diabetic foot raise the question of whether other factors intervene in disease development. We report a case of a 54-year-old male patient who came to Sardjito General Hospital with leg pain and previous history of multiple debridement and amputation for DFU referred from a remote hospital yet no improvement was evident in the surrounding lesion following treatment. Consequently, a histopathological examination was carried out proving the presence of other aetiologic factors, vasculitis and panniculitis existing in the lesion. In this case, we report a rare type of causative factor of foot ulcers among diabetic patients. Vasculitis suspected for polyarteritis nodosa accompanied by panniculitis is considered in this patient. The treatment of choice is corticosteroids or immunosuppressants based on the clinical condition, contrary to usual wound care in DFU. Based on the evidence, clinicians need to consider other causes than only macrovascular complications in a diabetic patient with DFU that is intractable to standard wound care. In this patient, vasculitis may be considered in forming diabetic foot ulcers alongside macrovascular complications.

Learning points

A thorough examination is essential to rule out other processes in intractable DFU patients.

Prompt management based on proper diagnosis is crucial to prevent peripheral arterial disease complications.

Vasculitis and macrovascular complication are inseparable processes forming DFU in this patient.
Stable thyroid cancer in a patient with thoracic aortic aneurysm and MYH11 variation
Authors: Fatourechi Vahab , Swanson Amy A , Lee Robert A
Published: January 2024

We report the case of a male patient with papillary thyroid cancer, familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection, and a variation in the MYH11 gene. Because of considerable tumor bulk in the neck that was not resectable, the patient underwent partial resection at age 14 years. Since then, the patient has received only suppressive thyroid hormone therapy. He is now 71 years old, which is 57 years after the initial resection. The patient received care at our institution from July 2009 to August 2019, during which we documented the stability of multiple calcified masses in the neck. Follow-up examinations at another institution from September 2019 to April 2023 also confirmed the stability of the masses. The underlying cause of this unusually long indolent course of the disease is unclear. Whether extensive tumor calcifications or the MYH11 sequence variation contributed to the disease course is also uncertain.

Learning points

Papillary thyroid cancer with neck metastases may, in some cases, be stable and remain asymptomatic for decades.

If locoregional stability of papillary thyroid cancer is documented for many years, observation may be preferable to extensive neck surgery in selected cases.

This is the first report of an MYH11 gene alteration and thoracic aortic aneurysm in a patient with papillary thyroid cancer with indolent neck metastases.

Future studies of MYH11 gene alterations in thyroid carcinoma are needed.
A existência do «eu» feminino negro em «Balada de amor ao vento» de Paulina Chiziane
Authors: Coimbra de Matos Ana Catarina
Published: January 2024

A obra de Paulina Chiziane dá voz ao eu coletivo da mulher negra e moçambicana. Interroga a existência miserável do eu feminino negro cujo destino é submeter-se e resignar-se ao sofrimento. As mulheres têm um papel relevante na preparação e manutenção dessa existência do eu feminino após a sua compra, ou lobolo, que o escraviza à vontade de um marido polígamo. Neste percurso, o eu feminino depara-se com a inevitabilidade de uma felicidade efémera e um sofrimento atroz. Em Balada de Amor ao Vento, a protagonista conta a sua existência, que oscila entre a ilusão e a desilusão, a fortuna e a miséria, e um desejo insaciável de amar. Sarnau denuncia o destino traçado pelas tradições e costumes para o eu feminino em que o sonho e a fantasia são a sua única escapatória. O vento indomável será a vela da sua vida e a água - o rio, o mar e a chuva - o espaço da mudança de um destino que renega em busca do amor.
Intertextualidad y mediación cultural en el uso de las notas al pie en «La Grève des bàttu» de Aminata Sow Fall y su traducción española
Authors: Mora López Sandra
Published: January 2024

El recurso al vocabulario multilingüe y su anotación son parte de la propuesta estética de Aminata Sow Fall en La grève des bàttu. La forma en que estas anotaciones configuran un acceso al espacio intertextual e intercultural del texto puede entenderse, desde un punto de vista lingüístico-cognitivo, como metonímica. Su calidad intertextual, que tiene que ver con las constricciones del propio formato de la nota, es un elemento que emplea Sow Fall para proponer una lectura ampliada al lector no nativo, desde una posición de mediadora no intervencionista. En la forma en que se emplean las notas al pie en la traducción española, se percibe una reconfiguración de estas estrategias comunicativas, y se pueden apreciar diferencias sustanciales, tanto en el método de mediación empleado como en el resultado, estético y político, de la representación de la cultura senegalesa.

Authors: García Morilla Santiago , Robles Tascón José Antonio
Published: January 2024

A mitad del Siglo XIII es cuando las fuentes sitúan el nacimiento de una de las principales figuras de este periodo en relación con la Medicina. Es por tanto Arnau de Vilanova un referente de la Edad Media en cuanto al arte de la salud y la curación y tendremos por objetivo analizar su obra desde el punto de vista del contenido de la salud y en particular con la actividad física, así como establecer las conexiones existentes de tal modo que se pueda verificar una verdadera fundamentación histórica para cimentar unas bases sólidas del deporte como Ciencia y su similitud con la actualidad. Será la Medicina la matriz y las sex res non naturales el eje vertebrador del estudio. Nos detendremos en este paradigma cuyo objetivo no fue otro que el de preservar y mantener la Salud, ese camino que el hombre sigue transitando en nuestros días y que en el Medievo representó grandes desafíos para la incipiente clase médica.
UNA ALTERNATIVA EN LA CLASE DE EDUCACIÓN FÍSICA PARA LA RESOLUCIÓN DE LOS CONFLICTOS SURGIDOS EN LAS PRÁCTICAS DEPORTIVAS ENTRE EL ALUMNADO
Authors: Navas Cordero Paul , Martínez Muñoz Luis Fernando
Published: January 2024

La presente publicación tiene su origen en el trabajo de investigación y la propuesta didáctica realizada por los dos autores, contenida en el Trabajo Fin de Grado llevado a cabo para la finalización de las materias y actividades precisas para culminar y obtener el Grado universitario en Ciencias de la Actividad Física y del Deporte en la Facultad de Formación del Profesorado y Educación de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.

La investigación tuvo como objeto de estudio las circunstancias de la Educación Física de un centro educativo privado de la Comunidad de Madrid y las características de los deportes allí practicados junto con sus clases de Educación Física.

Para llevar a cabo la recogida de información se utilizaron diferentes técnicas e instrumentos: análisis documental, lista de control y escala de valoración para la evaluación de la programación didáctica de aula; observación para el análisis de la enseñanza, durante el propio proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, así como entrevista al jefe del departamento de Educación Física del centro objeto de estudio.

Tras los resultados se extrajeron las diferentes fortalezas y debilidades presentes en el centro educativo con relación a la enseñanza de la EF. Entre las debilidades encontradas, se destacaban los conflictos generados en los patios escolares, generalmente consecuencia de la práctica del fútbol que afectaba no solo al desarrollo de los patios, sino que se trasladaban negativamente a las clases de EF.

Posteriormente se llevó a cabo una propuesta de actuación diseñada en base al resultado del análisis de la primera parte del trabajo, con el propósito de ofrecer alternativas para ayudar a reducir los conflictos detectados, proponiendo la práctica de un deporte alternativo mixto y sin contacto. Por lo que la última parte supone una unidad de programación denominada “Tchoukball comprensivo y responsable” con el alumnado de 3º de la ESO durante el 2º trimestre.
Tea Rooms. Mujeres obreras (novela reportaje) y la huelga de camareros de 1933-1934
Authors: Larraz Fernando
Published: January 2024

Este trabajo aspira a plantear nuevas lecturas de Tea Rooms. Mujeres obreras, de Luisa Carnés, a partir del análisis su hibridez genérica, como texto periodístico y de ficción literaria. Para ello, nuestro estudio se realizará un cotejo entre distintos géneros periodísticos que cubrieron la huelga de camareros de Madrid, en diciembre de 1933 (noticia, reportaje, reportaje gráfico, columnas, crónicas…) en la prensa de su momento con el modelo carnesiano. Se estudiarán las implicaciones de los diferentes acercamientos formales de estas modalidades discursivas a los hechos, tratando de ofrecer una posibilidad de reinterpretación de la novela a partir de su adscripción genérica y, sobre todo, de las posibilidades que la novela reportaje ofreció a Carnés para enfrentar la interpretación dominante que a la huelga de camareros había dado la prensa, fuertemente condicionada por la doble perspectiva hegemónica de género y clase.
Luisa Carnés y el testimonio (femenino) de la retirada y el primer exilio republicano en Francia
Authors: Sánchez Zapatero Javier
Published: January 2024

El artículo se centra en De Barcelona a la Bretaña francesa, la obra que Luisa Carnés escribió relatando su salida de España por la frontera franco-catalana y su posterior internamiento en un refugio francés. Partiendo del análisis temático y formal de la obra, y apoyándose en un corpus secundario formado por referentes teóricos y por testimonios análogos de otros exiliados, se estudia, por un lado, su dimensión testimonial, atendiendo a los elementos que configuran su interpretación factual y su concepción de fuente histórica, y, por otro, la importancia que la perspectiva de género adquiere en su composición, perceptible en el relato de experiencias vividas por mujeres en el primer exilio francés y en el punto de vista femenino desde el que está escrito. De esa forma, el artículo incide en la dimensión identitaria, colectiva, memorística y femenina de la obra.
El Madrid de Luisa Carnés: la representación del espacio urbano en la narrativa breve de la autora
Authors: Continisio Roberta
Published: January 2024

El presente artículo analiza las diversas representaciones del espacio urbano madrileño ofrecidas por Luisa Carnés en su narrativa breve. Los textos examinados –«Rojo y gris», «Una mujer fea», «La señorita número quince», «El único sistema», «El poeta que se ha quedado atrás», «Una estrella roja», «La partida de dominó», «En casa», «El pilluelo», «Prisión de madres» y «La pareja de la avenida Juárez»– se publican antes, durante y después de la Guerra Civil, y se recogen en una edición en dos volúmenes, editada por Antonio Plaza en 2018. Partiendo de la idea de que el espacio es parte fundamental de la estructura narrativa y no un simple mecanismo estilístico (Zubiaurre, 2000: 20) se han analizado las varias descripciones que la escritora proporciona de su Madrid, teniendo en cuenta el momento en el que escribe y la finalidad que tiene. En particular, en la aproximación a los cuentos de posguerra han resultado provechosas las teorías de Henri Lefevbre sobre el «espacio representacional» y la «representación del espacio», y el fenómeno de la «doble visión» de Daniel Tapia.
Análisis de las interpretaciones evolutivas en libros de texto de Enseñanza Secundaria
Authors: González Aspe Inés , Bermúdez-Rochas David Didier , Poyato-Ariza Francisco J.
Published: January 2024

La Evolución siempre ha formado parte del temario de la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria y de sus libros de texto en España; sin embargo, no existe una adecuada comprensión de los mecanismos y procesos evolutivos. En el presente trabajo se propone un nuevo tipo de análisis para estudiar cómo se explica la Evolución en los libros de texto a partir de los modelos interpretativos aplicados. Se proponen 8 categorías usadas para asignar modelos a frases referidas a procesos evolutivos. Los resultados muestran gran inconsistencia y un sorprendente predominio de modelos teleológicos y lamarckistas superados. Se evidencia la necesidad de actualizar los contenidos de los libros desde el Internalismo y de replantear la forma de explicar la Evolución, evitando Teleología y Lamarckismo.

La correspondencia del duque de Terranova en la prueba del gobierno. Desde Cataluña hasta Milán mirando a Madrid
Authors: Scalisi Lina
Published: January 2024

El gobierno virreinal en Cataluña y en Milán del duque de Terranova desde 1580 hasta 1586 constituye uno de los períodos de mayor interés del gobierno español en sus territorios. Un largo mandato durante el cual Terranova gobernó manteniendo el equilibrio con los demás órganos administrativos y dedicando una gran atención a los equilibrios geopolíticos de la época. Hay que tener en cuenta la estrecha relación entre este último aspecto y la intervención en una serie de cuestiones ligadas a las relaciones del duque con los mayores personajes de la corte madrileña, de la Roma pontificia, de Cataluña y de la península italiana. Relaciones necesarias para satisfacer al rey y proveer la defensa de los confines y las fronteras de la monarquía, probando, al mismo tiempo, su capacidad de tomar decisiones oportunas para acabar con conflictos que hubiesen podido hacer peligrar el espacio jurisdiccional y la autoridad de los Austrias en Europa. Cuestiones complicadas que marcaron sus mandatos y a las que hizo frente con una serie de alianzas in loco, apoyadas por la constante tarea mediadora de sus hombres de confianza. Cuestiones que atañen también a los deseos del soberano respecto a la construcción del retablo de San Lorenzo de El Escorial y que le enfrentaron al célebre escultor Pompeo Leoni, aunque con un éxito no acorde con su fama.
Los profesores del Colegio Imperial y Reales Estudios de Madrid: la Compañía de Jesús al servicio de la formación de élites
Authors: Burrieza Sánchez Javier
Published: January 2024

Tras un establecimiento complicado de los jesuitas en Madrid, el apoyo testamentario de la emperatriz María de Austria permitió hablar del llamado Colegio Imperial, desde el cual servirá de base para los deseados Reales Estudios que Felipe IV y Olivares proponen dirigir a la Compañía de Jesús para la formación de clases dirigentes y de la nobleza, después renovado en el siglo XVIII con el Seminario de Nobles y vinculado todavía con el Colegio Imperial. En el fondo también es el debate del establecimiento de estudios superiores en la Villa y Corte. Un proyecto, a pesar de las muchas oposiciones universitarias y escolásticas, que necesita unos profesores singulares, retrato de todos ellos y de su proyección socio-política e intelectual, además del conocimiento de disciplinas científicas, que permite definir personalidades académicas muy variadas.
Las instrucciones para misioneros del jesuita Agustín de Castro (1643)
Authors: Pizarro Llorente Henar
Published: January 2024

Agustín de Castro recogía en un breve escrito basado en su experiencia la praxis jesuítica en las misiones interiores. La importancia que la Compañía de Jesús otorgaba a esta actuación queda reflejada en que un jesuita tan destacado, ocupante de la Cátedra de Políticas en los Estudios Reales y predicador real, se emplease en el desempeño de esta actividad. Si bien esta labor se realizó en seguimiento de las ordenes cursadas por los Generales desde Roma y el cambio operado en el ámbito misional en el primer tercio del siglo XVII, hemos de entender la implicación de Castro relacionada con su vinculación al Santo Oficio y a la vigilancia del surgimiento de desviaciones de la ortodoxia y moral católica.
Acercamiento al curioso escrito de Lord Holland sobre la expulsión de los jesuitas de la España de Carlos III
Authors: Ávila Martínez María Teresa , Fernández Arrillaga Inmaculada
Published: January 2024

En 1820 el hispanista Lord Holland publicó un cuadernillo sobre la expulsión de los jesuitas de los territorios de la monarquía hispánica, una orden decretada en 1767 por Carlos III. Lo llamativo es que se editara 53 años después del destierro de esos regulares de la Compañía de Jesús, y, si bien fue un acontecimiento que conmocionó a la Europa Setecentista, se comprueba que todavía entonces esos hechos levantaban auténtico interés.

En este artículo nos proponemos esbozar la figura de este noble inglés, apasionado de la cultura y la política española junto con la de Elizabeth Vassal-Fox, conocida viajera y diarista; las relaciones que unían a este matrimonio con relevantes personajes cercanos a la corte española y contrastar las opiniones que ambos presentan sobre el extrañamiento de estos religiosos y las consecuencias para España de su exilio, finalizando con una aproximación sobre las posibles circunstancias que le llevó a publicar su manuscrito precisamente en esa fecha.
Desafios da educação superior em Angola no contexto pós-pandemia da covid-19
Authors: BARBANTE CESÁRIO JOSÉ SANJAMBO
Published: January 2024

A pandemia da Covid-19 trouxe desafios à educação superior em Angola, nomeadamente a adoção emergencial da educação online. Este artigo tem como objetivo refletir criticamente os desafios da educação superior em Angola, no pós-pandemia da Covid-19. Para o efeito, formulou-se as seguintes perguntas de investigação: 1) de que forma decorreu o processo de educação emergencial, nas instituições em questão, em tempo de pandemia? 2) que lições podemos retirar desta experiência educativa para os tempos pós-pandemia? Foi aplicada uma metodologia de natureza qualitativa-interpretativa, assente no estudo de documentos vários e observação direta como técnicas de recolha de dados. Os resultados da pesquisa apontam para ocorrência de  desigualdades no acesso à educação superior em Angola, e que a falta de acesso a internet de banda larga é, ainda, um problema. As conclusões permitem inferir que, durante a pandemia da Covid-19, houve paralisação das atividades letivas presenciais no ensino superior em Angola. Acresce que as iniciativas de atividades de educação online por parte das instituições não foram validadas pelo órgão de tutela. Por outro lado, a avaliação de impacto da Covid-19 na educação permite retirar as seguintes lições: promover a inclusão digital dos estudantes; formação continuado dos professores em TIC e a adoção do blended-learning como novo normal na educação.
La notion de la servitude pénale en droit pénal de la République Démocratique du Congo et ses répercussions dans le régime pénitentiaire
Authors: Matafwadi Musengi Jean Macaire
Published: January 2024

Les mots créent les choses et les réalités de fois fâcheuses qui nécessitent de nouvelles interprétations. C’est bien le cas de la notion de la servitude pénale qui s’est cristallisée dans le langage académique, légal (l’article 5 n0 3 de son code pénal) et judiciaire des cours et tribunaux de la République Démocratique du Congo pour exprimer la peine d’enfermement carcéral, sans qu’on n’en sache trop ses origines et sa raison d’être. De l’autre côté, la même République Démocratique du Congo, à travers sa Constitution, réaffirme son respect de la vie humaine et son attachement aux droits humains et aux libertés fondamentales tels que proclamés par les instruments juridiques internationaux auxquels elle a adhéré. Comme il sied de remarquer, l’option d’une chose et de son contraire par la législation congolaise, place les deux notions du respect droits humains et servitude pénale au même niveau, alors qu’elles sont aux antipodes. C’est justement cette controverse qui anime cette réflexion qui a pour but d’éclairer l’un et l’autre terme en vue de tirer quelques recommandations utiles pour une meilleure prise en charge des prisonniers des divers établissements de détention en RD Congo.
Chaves analíticas para a compreensão do projeto educacional da nova direita: Estratégias essenciais e particularidades brasileiras
Authors: Yannoulas Silvia Cristina
Published: January 2024

Ensaio baseado em revisão intensiva da literatura, que objetiva caracterizar o projeto educacional da Nova Direita no século XXI. A partir do caso brasileiro foi realizada uma aproximação ao caso argentino, que permitiu desvendar estratégias comuns do projeto nos dois países: a reedição do debate sobre o papel da família e do Estado a partir do questionamento à incorporação do materialismo histórico-dialético e os estudos de gênero nos conteúdos curriculares; a ampliação e diversificação dos sentidos de privatização da educação e o reforço ao papel subsidiário do Estado em matéria educacional; e a recomposição da relação entre educação e emprego/ocupação com as reformas do ensino médio e a consolidação do processo de individualização do social. O caso argentino permitiu visualizar algumas táticas particulares do projeto educacional da Nova Direita no Brasil: a militarização das escolas e a expansão da educação domiciliar, não abordadas neste artigo. A revisão de literatura realizada permite apontar dois eixos transversais necessários para a implementação desse projeto: a desvalorização do trabalho docente profissional reflexivo, e a desarticulação das políticas educativas de diversidade voltadas para a inclusão escolar de grupos historicamente desfavorecidos. Concluímos que é possível distinguir um projeto educacional articulado pela Nova Direita, que reinstala e atualiza polêmicas transcendentais da política educacional.
Representaciones sociales de docentes del Estado de México sobre el ingreso al servicio educativo
Authors: Compañ García Juan Ruben
Published: January 2024

El propósito de la presente investigación es conocer y analizar los motivos que consideran algunos docentes, que ingresaron al servicio educativo en el Estado de México durante la reforma educativa 2013 o 2019, para elegir una u otra vía de ingreso a la docencia. Aunque la evaluación, es el mecanismo que regula el ingreso al servicio educativo, no es el único. Se utilizó como marco de referencia teórico las representaciones sociales. Es un estudio de enfoque cualitativo. Utilizó como técnica la entrevista semiestructurada. Los motivos que impulsan a los docentes en la elección de determinada opción son múltiples, en ocasiones paradójicos. La política de ingreso no siempre capta a los mejores docentes, pues se desarrolla bajo un proceso ambiguo.
El ensayo frente a la barbarie. El discurso ético-estético en torno al Holocausto en Bilder der Welt und Inschrift des Krieges y Aufschub de Harun Farocki
Authors: Cuenca Cora , Montero David
Published: January 2024

El exterminio sistemático de millones de personas por parte de los nazis durante el Holocausto a mediados del pasado siglo sigue representando en la actualidad tanto un hecho central en lo que respecta a la definición de políticas de memoria a nivel europeo, como uno de los ejes de discusión más vivos en torno a los límites éticos y estéticos del discurso artístico. En estas páginas, mediante el análisis del trabajo cinematográfico de Harun Farocki en Bilder der Welt und Inschrift des Krieges y Aufschub, trataremos de delimitar los contornos de una posición ensayística frente a la representación audiovisual de la barbarie. Tomando como punto de partida la identificación de las principales perspectivas de representación ético-estéticas que se han venido configurando en el cine en torno al Holocausto (testimonio; documento; estetización), la lectura del trabajo de Farocki incide en los mecanismos puestos en juego por el cineasta alemán con el objetivo de situar el horror nazi más allá de la lógica de la historia, como un problema filosófico de primer orden en la cultura visual contemporánea y como una amenaza que requiere el compromiso ético del espectador.
Electrochemical Studies on Interaction of Ofloxacin with ITO-PANI Supported Bilayer Lipid Membrane
Authors: Poornima K. , Periasamy M. , Rameshkumar S. , Sankar A.
Published: January 2024

Bilayer phospholipid membrane was formed on the ITO-Pani surface in NaCl bath solution at different pH. Characterization and interaction of bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) with Ofloxacin molecules in 0.1 M NaCl solution was studied at different pH employing electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometric methods. The changes in the properties of BLM due to addition of Ofloxacin depends on the pH of bath solution. At low pH the membrane surface is positively charged and the interaction of drug molecules with the BLM surface takes place through chloride bridge. At alkaline pH the membrane surface is negatively charged and the drug molecules get attached through hydrogen bonding. The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry support each other.

Published: January 2024

This study aims to improve the solubility, bioavailability, and safety profile of miconazole through the development of a pharmacokinetic, a type of vesicular drug delivery system known for its advantages over with conventional methods. Using a solvent evaporation technique, miconazole is encapsulated in a soy lecithin-based pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics obtained showed significant improvements in drug solubility, concentration uniformity and stability. One specific formulation, rated F1, with an exact ratio of miconazole to soy lecithin showed an impressive drug release rate of 94.25% within 60 minutes, in stark contrast to the release rate of only 28.90% achieved by free miconazole. This improved release profile shows the potential to improve treatment efficacy. In addition, both the standard F1 and miconazole formulations exhibited significant antifungal activity against Candida albicans, as evidenced by the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 144.23 ?g/ml and 143.31 ?g/ml respectively. The innovative approach of complexing miconazole with soy lecithin through the formation of pharmacokinetics not only enhances drug solubility and bioavailability, but also contributes to minimizing potential toxic effects. These results highlight a promising pharmaceutical role as a means of improving the pharmacological properties of miconazole and other potential drugs with similar solubility challenges. This study has important implications for the development of more effective and safer therapeutic interventions in the field of antifungal therapy.
