Published: June 2024

The legal protection of the right of possession in Ecuador is a controversial and unfinished matter despite being an old legal institution and developed in the doctrine of Civil Law. There are not a few controversies that arise due to the occupation of property or belongings of others due to the lack of knowledge of the rights generated by the peaceful, calm, uninterrupted and good faith possession of the possessor. The study aims to analyze the legal protection of possession, identify the principles of law that allow the legal defense of possession and promote its theoretical development. The concepts of domain and possession are taken as starting points, as well as the way in which they are regulated in the Ecuadorian Civil Code. A methodology based on the documentary and legal study is used with the application of the exegetical method, analysis, synthesis and legal theory. A set of principles derived from Law in general and, from civil science in particular, applicable to the right of possession are proposed, and the elements, foundations, legal nature and relationship of possession with the right to property are summarized.

Authors: Coba-Ramos Diana Paola , Vásconez-Acuña Lenyn Geovanny
Published: June 2024

Latin America recognizes the importance of tax incentives to stimulate economic development and attract investment. Strategies such as income tax exemption, reduced rates and tax credits are applied to encourage investment, especially in remote areas. The region seeks to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) through special regimes with additional benefits. In this regard, the International Monetary Fund highlights FDI as a tool to establish long-term connections and improve economic growth. However, the implementation of tax incentives faces challenges, such as the possible decrease in tax collection and the complexity of tax systems. High tax burden, fiscal instability and evasion are also challenges that can affect the attraction of foreign investors. On this basis, the present research seeks to examine the impact of tax incentives on the region's ability to attract foreign investments.

Authors: Maceda-Martínez Percy Maggin , Silva-Asanza Bryan Francisco , Quevedo-Guerrero José Nicasio , García-Batista Rigoberto Miguel
Published: June 2024

Banana cultivation is a vital component of the agricultural industry in Ecuador and other tropical and subtropical regions. This study focused on investigating the influence of different doses of nutrient solutions on the development of banana shoots in areas with low productivity and high demand for export-quality bananas. The hypothesis was based on the increasing global demand for bananas and the need to increase yields without compromising product quality. Three treatments with varying doses of nutrient solutions were evaluated, and developmental parameters such as Fuste growth, plant height, and leaf dimensions were analyzed. The results highlighted the significant impact of nutrient doses on banana growth. Overall, the treatment with the recommended complete dose proved to be more effective in terms of Fuste length, height, and leaf dimensions. While lower doses occasionally generated faster growth, the treatment with the complete dose exhibited maximum growth and higher values in the evaluated parameters over time. These findings underscore the importance of balanced and adequate nutrition for banana cultivation. The optimal dose of nutrient solution is essential for achieving robust development and high-quality production. As bananas have high nutritional requirements, particularly in nutrients like potassium, maintaining nutritional balance emerges as a key factor in maximizing production and ensuring fruit quality.

Memórias e histórias da ditadura em tempos de neofascismo bolsonarista
Authors: Badaró Mattos Marcelo
Published: June 2024

O artigo se inicia por uma caracterização do fenômeno político do bolsonarismo, para explicar seu recurso a uma visão mítica positivada da ditadura, através de uma análise dos discursos da cúpula das Forças Armadas. Em seguida, procura-se apresentar uma leitura crítica de certas análises historiográficas, produzidas por especialistas acadêmicos e com larga circulação que, embora não possuam relação direta com as visões dos militares e do bolsonarismo, acabam por compartilhar elementos em comum com essas memórias reacionárias do passado ditatorial. Pretende-se, com isso, chamar a atenção para a complexa relação entre a memória social e a história produzida por historiadores profissionais, de forma a ressaltar sua responsabilidade política e social.

In this study, we conducted a detailed morphological analysis of the lingula and foramen mandibulae, aiming to examine their anatomical characteristics and relationships within contemporary and medieval individuals.
Our primary objective was to provide valuable insights to assist clinicians in minimizing potential intraoperative complications during anesthesia procedures targeting the inferior alveolar nerve.
To accomplish this, we examined the mandibular structures of 22 adults, 11 children aged 6-12 from archaeological findings in the Târgu Mureș area, and 14 contemporary adults. Our observations encompassed the size, shape, and spatial relationships of the lingula and foramen mandibulae concerning various points along the ascending branch of the mandible.
The study revealed a distinct order of lingula shapes among medieval children and adults, with the triangle, trapezoid, nodular, and assimilated shapes being most prevalent. In modern adults, the order of nodular and assimilated shapes was reversed. Additionally, oval foramina were more common in adults, while round foramina predominated in children. Notably, there was no statistically significant difference between children and adults in the distance from the most prominent point of the lingula to the anterior edge of the ascending branch.
Our findings imply that the depth at which the inferior alveolar nerve can be accessed remains relatively consistent between children and adults. Furthermore, we identified a correlation between the relationship of the shape of the lingula and the position of the mandibular foramen, providing valuable insights for clinical practice.
Keywords: lingula, foramen mandibulae, morphology, inferior alveolar nerve block
Odmevi tridesetletne vojne v letopisu ljubljanskega kolegija Družbe Jezusove

Published: June 2024

The purpose of the paper is to find out which phases of the Thirty Years’ War made the greatest impact on the life in the duchy of Carniola and especially in its capital city. This research is based on the accounts from the Annual of the College of Society of Jesus (Historia annua) in Ljubljana. Judging by the reports of anonymous Jesuit chroniclers, the land experienced the strongest impact of the proximity of the battlefield during the so-called second Venetian war in the years between 1615 and 1618, that represented a sort of an introduction to the upcoming conflict in the Holy Roman Empire, and the last phase of the Thirty Years’ War, the so-called French and Swedish war in the years between 1635 and 1648. The first two stages of the Thirty Years’ War, the Czech and the Danish wars, left only scarce traces in the Annual, the latter even remained unmentioned by the Jesuits. The reports on war events start to reemerge after the beginning of the Swedish war in 1630 and especially after 1635 when France entered the war on the side of the emperor’s opponents.
De la fenomenología al psicoanálisis
Authors: Yagüe Pedro
Published: June 2024

En el presente artículo me propongo analizar comparativamente el modo en que León Rozitchner y Oscar Masotta realizaron un pasaje de la fenomenología al psicoanálisis a finales de los años sesenta en la Argentina. Si bien ambos arribos comparten un mismo punto de partida (el cruce de fenomenología y marxismo que se produce en la Francia de posguerra), las dos lecturas presentan significativas diferencias. La interpretación de Rozitchner se encuentra regida por interrogantes sociales y políticos, ya presentes en el desarrollo de su problemática filosófica elaborada durante sus escritos de los años cincuenta y sesenta. En el caso de Masotta, el interés se encuentra centrado en la práctica clínica y en la metapsicología. En la primera parte del trabajo, realizaré una recomposición del espacio abierto por la revista Contorno, grupo que les sirvió a ambos como punto de partida. Una vez hecho esto, estudiaré por separado la singularidad de las dos lecturas, el modo en que en los dos casos se acude al psicoanálisis a partir de los problemas abiertos por la tradición fenomenológica. A modo de conclusión, señalaré las principales diferencias entre Rozitchner y Masotta a partir del lugar ocupado por Freud y Lacan en las dos interpretaciones.
En territorio demoníaco
Authors: Fuentes Martín
Published: June 2024

Este artículo analizará la relación entre monoteísmo y violencia en la perspectiva desplegada por Peter Sloterdijk en Fobocracia, traducción al español de Im Schatten des Sinai, publicado originalmente en el año 2013. En un primer momento, se argumentará que el problema de la violencia religiosa se enmarca al interior de una problemática largamente trabajada en escritos previos de Sloterdijk: la unilateralidad de la acción, asociada por el pensador tanto a los grandes relatos de la modernidad “hiperactiva” como a la lógica “fobocrática” de los atentados terroristas. En un segundo momento, se procederá a delimitar las coordenadas inter-textuales específicas que, a partir del año 2006, subyacen al abordaje sloterdijkiano del fundamentalismo religioso. Esto implica no solo identificar los interlocutores con los que discute el filósofo alemán, sino también las relaciones íntimas que Fobocracia tiene con dos textos anteriores del autor: Celo de Dios. Sobre la lucha de los tres monoteísmos, de 2006, y Has de cambiar tu vida. Sobre antropotécnica, de 2009. En un tercer momento, se examinará la arquitectura interna del ensayo de 2013 a través del concepto de “membresía total”. Finalmente, a modo de conclusión, se esbozará un balance general de la temática propuesta.

Authors: Samut Cem , Çalık Kütükcü Ebru , Topuz Semra
Published: June 2024

Amaç: Bu derlemenin amacı; alt ekstremite amputasyonu olan bireylerin enerji tüketimini araştıran çalışmaları özetlemek ve sonuçlarını bildirmektir.

Yöntem: Çalışmamızın amacına uygun olarak seçilmiş olan anahtar kelimeleri kullanarak enerji tüketiminin değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan yöntemlerin, enerji tüketimine etki eden faktörlerin, sağlıklı ve alt ekstremite amputasyonu olan bireylerin enerji tüketimi açısından farklılıkların ortaya konulması açısından alt ekstremite amputelerinde enerji tüketimi ile ilgili yapılmış bilimsel çalışmalar belirlenerek incelendi.

Sonuçlar: Amputasyonu takiben protez kullanımı ile birlikte vücut, amputasyon seviyesine göre biyomekaniksel değişiklikler göstermekte ve bunun sonucunda hem sağlıklı hem ampute tarafta adaptasyon mekanizmaları geliştirmektedir. Temel amacı kaybedilen eklem, kas ve sensorimotor girdiyi kompanse etmek olan bu adaptasyonlar, özellikle alt ekstremite amputasyonlarını takiben gerçekleşmekte ve uzun vadede tüm kinetik zinciri etkileyen sekonder patolojilerin ortaya çıkmasına neden olmaktadır. Alt ekstremite amputasyonu olan bireyler yürüyüş sırasında biyomekanik değişiklikler ve fiziksel uygunluktaki yetersizlikler ile dinamik dengenin azalmasına bağlı olarak gelişen fonksiyonel yetersizliklerini kompanse edebilmek amacıyla aşırı enerji harcamaktadırlar.

Tartışma: Değişen fiziksel parametreler ağırlık merkezini, yürüyebilme yeteneğini ve yürüyüşün doğal kinematiğini olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir. Bu değişikler bireylerin fiziksel kapasitesine, günlük yaşam aktivitelerine katılımına, hangi tip protez veya yardımcı cihaz kullandıklarına ve hangi hızda yürüdüklerine bağlı olarak değişen oranlarda enerji tüketiminde artışa neden olabilmektedir. Enerji tüketimi açısından protez kullanan bireyler sağlıklı bireylerle karşılaştırıldığında, protez kullanan bireylerin daha düşük hızda yürürken daha yüksek enerji harcadıkları tespit edilmiştir. Amputasyonlu kişilerin kendi seçtikleri yürüyüş hızlarındaki azalmanın, artmış metabolik harcamaların önüne geçmek için geliştirdikleri bir kompansasyon yöntemi olduğu belirtilmiştir.

Published: June 2024

This study explored the effects of the Anti-Child and Forced Marriage Ordinance on the Tagakaulo and Blaan in Malungon, Sarangani Province. A mixed method employing quantitative and qualitative approaches, specifically concurrent triangulation design was used to gather relevant data. This study provided the customary practices of the indigenous communities in which the results showed the gender separation and taboos against premarital interaction between men and women. They also accepted polygyny and the separation of married couples. The marital practices of Blaan and Tagakaulo include child and arranged marriages as well as the instances of forced marriages where children married against their own will. Malungon enacted the Anti-Child and Forced Marriage Ordinance in 2018 to ensure children's education and protection. The results showed that the mentioned practices declined as it is prohibited, especially with the approval of RA 11596 or the law criminalizing child marriage. Even though there are violators in its initial implementation in the far-flung areas, results showed that both communities highly accepted the Anti-Child and Forced Marriage ordinance and the law criminalizing child marriage with the subthemes: education as a priority, protection, and welfare of their children, and negative consequences of early marriage. Furthermore, friendships and relationships are already accepted without requiring them to marry instantly. This study contributed to the understanding of the implementation of the Anti-Child and Forced Marriage ordinance followed by approval of the law criminalizing child marriage affected the customary marital practices of the Blaan and Tagakaulo communities.
Developing a Community-Based Disaster Relief Management System
Authors: Torno Gerina Rose
Published: June 2024

This study aimed to enhance disaster relief operations in Tuguegarao City by proposing a more efficient management system framework. Utilizing interviews and thematic analysis, researchers in 2017 identified problems in emergency management, such as inadequate equipment, budget constraints, and issues with relief distribution. The study highlighted confusion and political bias in relief operations, leading to mistrust in the local government. In response, the researchers developed a community-based Disaster Relief Management System (CBDRMS) framework, inspired by Foucault’s power/knowledge analytics. This framework emphasizes transparency, communication, and good relationships among LGUs, NGOs, and recipients. The proposed online system includes a portal and a Facebook Page for data storage and communication, aiming to empower stakeholders and foster discourse for effective disaster relief management. The researchers believe that this approach can overcome barriers, leading to development and improved disaster response.
Correlates of Affectual, Associational, and Functional Solidarity among Digitally Literate Adults
Authors: Ochoa Josefina , Parinas Sherwin , Yalong Bernadette
Published: June 2024

Positive interactions are key to social harmony. Challenges such as unmet needs and cultural mismatches hinder the solidarity necessary in the workplace. Integrating mindfulness, intergenerational solidarity, and relational-cultural theories can help address the need for positive interactions, fostering mutual appreciation and provision of concern, and ensuring needs are effectively met and opportunities seized. This quantitative study involved 279 digitally literate adults and utilized three sets of questionnaires to measure hypothesized correlations between needs attainment, opportunity capture, cultural contextualization, and affectual, associational, and functional solidarity. The findings revealed high mean values for all facets of solidarity: 3.99 for affectual, 3.60 for associational, and 3.61 for functional, explaining 23%, 14%, and 13% of the variance respectively. Significant correlations were observed among needs attainment (0.56), opportunity capture (0.50), cultural contextualization (0.51), and all facets of solidarity, with a probability of 0.001, supporting the hypotheses. The data found a highly acceptable level of affectual solidarity and moderately acceptable levels of associational and functional solidarity, supporting the idea of transitioning from self to others and then to the workplace. A society where needs are met, opportunities recognized, and culture contextualized would interact harmoniously, leading to increased productivity and solidarity. These findings suggest that personal and environmental factors are significantly correlated with solidarity, as the workforce is mindful, expresses mutual concern, and is sensitive to each other's needs. Implications for assessing solidarity in the workplace and providing learning support are discussed.

The basis of the methodology was the use of a system of general scientific methods and techniques of empirical knowledge: induction and deduction, analysis and synthesis, system and functional approaches, classification and systematization, observation and description, explanation and generalization. In the course of the conducted research, it was determined that the tendency to increase the number of analytical centers in the USA leads to an increase in competition for financial resources, and also leads to a change in the primary specialization: it becomes more and more narrow, leaving only a small number of analytical institutions multidisciplinary. It was also established that the demand for research by analytical centers is growing, so opportunities for cooperation in solving problems are constantly expanding. This is because information requests are becoming more complex and globalized. It was noted that, despite the official statement regarding impartiality and objectivity in matters of political consulting, today there is a noticeable trend of increasing political influence on the activities of think tanks. However, many think tanks, in addition to addressing socio-economic issues, have a relentless desire to engage in policy advocacy, which can lead to certain negative trends: the focus of their activities can change from professional analytics to the conductor of existing party policies. The practical value of the work lies in its use during the educational process by students of higher education who gain knowledge in the specialties of “Information Analytics”, “Political Science”, “International Relations”, etc., as well as those who are interested in the place of the United States in the globalized world and its influence
Victimología verde y nueva propuesta de directiva europea sobre protección del medio ambiente a través del derecho penal
Authors: García Rodríguez Manuel
Published: June 2024

El famoso terremoto de Lisboa de 1755 y las no tan conocidas obras de Immanuel Kant sobre este inauguran una nueva etapa de la historia del pensamiento humano en relación con los desastres y sus efectos en el entorno natural y humano. ¿Son previsibles este tipo de catástrofes? ¿Contribuye el obrar del hombre de algún modo al daño generado —por ejemplo, como decía Kant— construyendo casas altas y, por lo tanto, se le puede hacer responsable? A estas cuestiones se suman las planteadas por la entonces incipiente revolución industrial, que añade a los desastres «naturales» otros de pura creación humana: la «contaminación» que, como resultado de limitaciones tecnológicas y del afán de ahorro en los procesos de producción industrial, destruye la naturaleza y envenena a los seres humanos. ¿Cuál es el equilibrio entre desarrollo económico y social y protección del medioambiente y la salud? ¿Hay un nivel de riesgo o de daño permitido por el Derecho? De todo esto se debatió durante dos días en este congreso internacional en el cual se reunieron especialistas venidos de España, Italia y Brasil en Criminología verde, Derecho penal internacional y Derecho penal medioambiental.

Sistema penitenciario y crisis carcelaria en el Ecuador
Authors: Estrella Saltos Ronny Michael
Published: June 2024

El sistema penitenciario en Ecuador enfrenta una profunda crisis carcelaria, caracterizada por una serie de problemáticas que tienen severas implicaciones en el respeto a los derechos humanos y la garantía de la justicia penal para las personas. Las cárceles ecuatorianas han sido escenario de una violencia sin precedentes, marcada por masacres y enfrentamientos entre bandas. Esta situación ha sido exacerbada por la sobrepoblación y el hacinamiento, como el reflejo del uso excesivo de la detención preventiva y la falta de alternativas efectivas frente al encarcelamiento. El objetivo principal de este estudio es analizar el sistema penitenciario, y la crisis carcelaria en Ecuador, y sus consecuencias en el respeto a los derechos humanos y la aplicación de la justicia penal. Esta investigación recurrió a una modalidad paradigmática cualitativa, propia de las Ciencias Sociales, como el Derecho, con un nivel de investigación exploratorio y descriptivo.
Este estudio consta de un diseño de investigación-acción, tiene una muestra de once expertos1 y los criterios de un grupo multidisciplinario de profesionales en el área de la Psicología, Trabajo Social y Derecho. La técnica de recolección de información siguió los parámetros establecidos por la metodología focus group (grupos focales) o grupos de enfoque.
Adicionalmente, con la técnica de revisión de materiales y documentos se realizó el análisis documental de diez documentos bibliográficos. El tipo deinvestigación en el área de Derecho es jurídico-propositiva. Los métodos utilizados fueron, en el nivel teórico: el analítico-sintético, el históricológico y el inductivo-deductivo; en el nivel práctico: el análisis documental y el método de la interpretación jurídica. Como conclusión, se determinó que es necesario poner en acción una política criminal y penitenciaria integral y transversal, enfocada en la prevención y en el control de todo tipo de violencia en las cárceles, con la aplicación de diferentes medidas; como la reducción de la sobrepoblación carcelaria, mediante la aplicación de medidas alternativas a la prisión preventiva y con nuevas políticas públicas adecuadas a la realidad.

El derecho a la vida privada y familiar como fundamento de la reproducción humana asistida en Ecuador
Authors: Zambrano Noles Silvia Patricia
Published: June 2024

El acceso a las herramientas de la reproducción humana asistida es un de­recho humano. Los instrumentos generados por los organismos internacio­nales avalan este concepto, lo mismo sucede con los tribunales regionales, entidades que han resuelto reclamos relacionados con la materia, ya que la reproducción humana asistida está considerada como parte de los derechos fundamentales de las personas. Esta temática forma parte del conjunto de derechos que rigen la vida privada y familiar que posee doctrina legal y jurisprudencial valiosa para la materia, descrita en este documento. La presente investigación toma, como punto de partida para la valoración de la reproducción humana asistida en Ecuador, el análisis del derecho a la vida y la intimidad, como argumento para la regulación de las técnicas de reproducción asistida en este país. Estas prácticas están extendidas entre la población, a pesar de que existen riesgos y brechas de desigualdad, lo que hace pertinente el estudio del tema. La investigación se realizó con varios métodos de trabajo: teórico, revisión documental; y jurídico doctrinal para responder al objetivo de la investigación.
La especialización de la jurisdicción constitucional desde la perspectiva del derecho a la tutela judicial efectiva.
Authors: Pardo Torres Norman José
Published: June 2024

El artículo que presento realiza un breve análisis de la jurisdicción constitucional en el Ecuador, en relación a la aplicación del principio de especialidad de los operadores de justicia y su incidencia en el derecho a la tutela constitucional efectiva de los ciudadanos. La jurisdicción constitucional actualmente es otorgada a jueces ordinarios que pertenecen a la Función Judicial, operadores de justicia en su gran mayoría sin especialización en el área del Derecho Constitucional. Este artículo destaca la inobservancia del principio de especialidad como causante de perjuicios al derecho a la tutela efectiva, en el sentido de que las sentencias de garantías jurisdiccionales dictadas por los jueces ordinarios, en gran porcentaje, son declaradas por nuestra Corte Constitucional como violatorias al derecho a la seguridad jurídica, motivación y debido proceso.
