Reflexões sobre Bem-Estar Subjetivo, Bem-Estar Psicológico e Bem-Estar no Trabalho
Authors: Rossi Valquíria Aparecida , Martins Maria do Carmo Fernandes , Tashima-Cid Daren Priscila , Dias Maiango
Published: December 2020

Desde a última metade do século XX, houve aumento da preocupação em relação à saúde, bem-estar e felicidade e isto se refletiu na área organizacional, na qual pesquisadores vêm buscando respostas sobre quais variáveis podem proporcionar bem-estar e levar os empregados a obterem melhor performance e mais resultados positivos. Os fundamentos do bem-estar no trabalho assentam-se nas teorias de bem-estar que remontam às questões filosóficas do hedonismo e do eudaimonismo. Este texto objetivou apresentar a evolução dos conceitos de bem-estar subjetivo e psicológico para fundamentar a concepção e a evolução de um modelo de bem-estar no trabalho. A partir da compreensão conceitual desses construtos, propõe-se um novo modelo de bem-estar no trabalho. Conclui-se que não há consenso sobre o conceito e propõe-se novo modelo integrativo formado por componentes hedônicos e eudaimônicos

Catholic Women Redesign Catholicism: an essay in honor of Maria José Rosado Nunes
Authors: Hunt Mary E.
Published: December 2020

This essay explores how Catholic women have changed Catholicism as a culture, if not so much the institutional church, in the years between 1970 and 2020. Catholic women have not endeared ourselves to Catholic hierarchs; in fact many dislike and fear us. But we have saved lives, spiritual as well as physical, by providing solid opposition and creative alternatives to the institutional church. A redesign of Catholicsm begins with the culture and ethos. Catholic women envision it as a global movement rooted in particular cultures, united by values of love and justice, open to the wisdom of many religious traditions, and structured to provide ministry and meaning through cooperative, horizontally organized communities. While there has been progress, more work remains to be done.

Published: December 2020

RESUMO O objetivo desta pesquisa foi verificar a frequência de ovinos soropositivos para o vírus da língua azul na microrregião de Juazeiro, Bahia. O teste de imunodifusão em gel de ágar (IDGA) foi utilizado para pesquisar 469 amostras de soro oriundas de 58 rebanhos. Durante as colheitas, um questionário foi aplicado a cada criador a fim de se obter dados sobre o sistema de criação e correlacioná-los com a sorologia. Os resultados demonstraram que 0,43% (2/469) das amostras analisadas apresentaram anticorpos contra o agente. Esta região é caracterizada pelo clima semiárido e pela predominância do tipo de exploração extensiva, com presença de animais nativos, mestiços e sem raça definida para produção de carne e pele, com baixa produtividade e tecnificação.

RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi demonstrar os efeitos do tratamento tópico do creme à base de óleo de pequi (Caryocar coriaceum Wittm) utilizando 40 ratos (Rattus norvegicus albinus) da linhagem Wistar, machos, com 60 dias de idade. Esses foram divididos em dois grupos: I) composto por 20 ratos com feridas cutâneas tratados com aplicação tópica do creme base com 10% de óleo de pequi; II) com o mesmo número de animais que receberam a aplicação tópica do creme base sem o óleo de pequi. Após antissepsia e anestesia local foi produzida cirurgicamente ferida circular de 1 cm de diâmetro na região dorso lombar. As lesões cutâneas foram avaliadas sob o aspecto clínico, morfométrica e histológico no 3o, 7o, 14o e 21o dias pós-operatório. No grupo tratado com creme à base de óleo de pequi houve aceleração na evolução do processo cicatricial. As feridas dos animais desse grupo apresentaram redução significativa a partir do décimo quarto dia pós-operatório, bem como foram verificados nesse período achados histológicos característicos da etapa final do processo de cicatrização tais como: acentuada quantidade de fibroblastos, fibras colágenas e completo processo de reepitelização, enquanto que as feridas do grupo controle necessitaram de mais tempo para resolução do processo cicatricial.

RESUMO O uso de compostos secundários de plantas medicinais, com propriedades antimicrobianas, pode ser uma alternativa para o controle de fitopatógenos. Diante disso, este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a atividade antimicrobiana de derivados obtidos da planta Adiantum capillus-veneris (avenca) contra fungos e bactérias fitopatogênicos. Os derivados, obtidos do pó de folhas de avenca secas ao ar, foram preparados por infusão, maceração e decocção, autoclavados ou não, nas concentrações de 0,1%, 0,25%, 0,5%, 1%, 1,25%, 2,5%, 5%, 10% e 20%. Foram avaliadas a germinação de esporos dos fungos Phakopsora euvitis e Pseudocercospora vitis, o crescimento micelial dos fungos Colletotrichum musae e Sclerotium rolfsii e a multiplicação das bactérias Erwinia sp. e Bacillus subtilis. O extrato obtido por maceração não autoclavado foi o que apresentou maior efeito sobre P. euvitis e P. vitis com reduções de 75% e 99% na germinação de esporos na concentração de 20%, respectivamente. O menor crescimento micelial de C. musae e S. rolfsii foi obtido pelo macerado autoclavado, com redução de 39% e 83%, respectivamente. Para Erwinia sp., o maior efeito inibitório foi obtido com o macerado autoclavado que, na concentração de 25%, inibiu 99% a multiplicação bacteriana. Para B. subtilis, não houve inibição significativa. Esses resultados indicam o potencial de derivados de avenca para o controle de fitopatógenos.
SOROPOSITIVIDADE E LESÕES SUGESTIVAS DE BRUCELOSE EM BOVINOS ABATIDOS NO ESTADO DE TOCANTINS, BRASIL
Authors: Viana L. , Baptista F. , Teles J. , Ribeiro A.P.C. , Pigatto C.P.
Published: December 2020

RESUMO De outubro a dezembro de 2007, 845 amostras de sangue foram coletadas de 836 vacas (98,9%) e nove touros (1,1%), em um matadouro com inspeção federal no Estado do Tocantins. Cento e quarenta e duas amostras [(16,8%) IC 95% 14,3-19,4] tiveram reação positiva ao teste do antígeno acidificado e tamponado de Brucella abortus. Um touro foi positivo ao teste. Quinhentos e sessenta e um bovinos (66,3%) procederam do Estado do Pará e 284 (33,7%) do Estado do Tocantins. A prevalência de soropositividade foi de 17,2% [IC (95%) 13,6 - 19,9] e de 16,6% [IC (95%) 13,0 - 22,2] para o gado do Pará e Tocantins, respectivamente. Estas prevalências não são significativamente diferentes (p > 0,05). Nenhuma das vacas tinha registro de vacinação contra brucelose. Os exames "ante e post-mortem" não detectaram qualquer sinal ou lesão sugestiva à brucelose, como descargas vaginais, orquites, artrites ou bursites [(0,00%) IC 95% 0,00-0,43] em todos os bovinos da amostra. Esta situação, associada às altas prevalências da doença e à falta de diagnóstico da brucelose nos rebanhos, aumenta o número de bovinos infectados abatidos sob condições sanitárias inadequadas, o risco de contaminação dos trabalhadores e a colocação no mercado, sem restrição, de carne de animais infectados.
Revision of Hymenophyllum subg. Sphaerocionium (Hymenophyllaceae) in the Atlantic Forest Domain (Brazil), Based on Molecular and Morphological Evidence
Authors: Gonzatti Felipe , Windisch Paulo G. , Scariot Fernando J. , Echeverrigaray Sergio , Ritter Mara R.
Published: December 2020

Abstract—Sphaerocionium is the largest subgenus of Hymenophyllum and occurs mainly in tropical forests of the Neotropical Region. Species of Hymenophyllum occurring in Brazil are poorly known due to difficulties in species delimitation and the absence
of detailed studies. The aim of the present study was to present a synopsis of Hymenophyllum subg. Sphaerocionium in the Atlantic Forest domain, based on molecular and morphological data. Field and herbarium specimens were morphologically analyzed by stereomicroscopy, optical
microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Phylogenetic relationships were evaluated by sequence comparison of the plastidial regions trnG-R and rps4-trnS. Morphological and phylogenetic evidence led to the recognition of 14 taxa throughout the Atlantic Forest, five of which
are endemic. The taxonomy and nomenclature of Hymenophyllum in Brazil are revised and 19 new lectotypifications are proposed. The conservation status and geographical distributions of all species are updated and a dichotomous key is provided.

Comparative Analysis of Genetic and Morphological Variation within the Platanthera hyperborea Complex (Orchidaceae)
Authors: Wettewa Eranga , Bailey Nick , Wallace Lisa E.
Published: December 2020

Abstract—Species complexes present considerable problems for a working taxonomy due to the presence of intraspecific variation, hybridization, polyploidy, and phenotypic plasticity. Understanding evolutionary patterns using molecular markers can allow for a more thorough
assessment of evolutionary lineages than traditional morphological markers. In this study, we evaluated genetic diversity and phylogenetic patterns among taxa of the Platanthera hyperborea (Orchidaceae) complex, which includes diploid (Platanthera aquilonis) and polyploid (Platanthera
hyperborea, P. huronensis, and P. convallariifolia) taxa spanning North America, Greenland, Iceland, and Asia. We found that three floral morphological characters overlap among the polyploid taxa, but the diploid species has smaller flowers. DNA sequence variation in a plastid
(rpL16 intron) and a nuclear (ITS) marker indicated that at least three diploid species have contributed to the genomes of the polyploid taxa, suggesting all are of allopolyploid origin. Platanthera convallariifolia is most like P. dilatata and P. stricta, whereas
P. huronensis and P. hyperborea appear to have originated from crosses of P. dilatata and P. aquilonis. Platanthera huronensis, which is found across North America, has multiple origins and reciprocal maternal parentage from the diploid species. By contrast,
P. hyperborea, restricted to Greenland and Iceland, appears to have originated from a small founding population of hybrids in which P. dilatata was the maternal parent. Geographic structure was found among polyploid forms in North America. The area of Manitoba, Canada appears
to be a contact zone among geographically diverse forms from eastern and western North America. Given the geographic and genetic variation found, we recommend continued recognition of four green-flowered species within this complex, but caution that there may be additional cryptic taxa within
North America.

Abstract—Antiphytum charruasorum, a new endemic species from western Uruguay, is described. This is the only South American species in the genus with white corolla and an infra-medial cicatrix on the ventral face of the eremocarp, both features shared with the North American species ofAntiphytum, in sharp contrast with the blue corolla and the basal cicatrix at the end of a stipe-like prolongation that characterizes all South American species in the genus.Antiphytum charruasorumincreases the diversity of the genus in South America, as well as the endemism and distribution range into Uruguay. Moreover, this new species adds novel features inAntiphytumsuch as the irregularly dichasial inflorescences, the hirsute faucal appendages, the eremocarps with a tissue plug from the gynobase, and the habitat where the species has been reported.
Informing the information requirements of a digital twin: a rail industry case study
Authors: Johnson Aaron , Heaton James , Yule Steven , Luke Sam , Pocock David , Parlikad Ajith Kumar , Schooling Jennifer
Published: December 2020

The right data to the right people at the right time are a crucial component to developing an effective digital twin (DT). A challenge in the industry is that existing legacy data systems have been tailored independently to meet specific technical requirements, leading to disparate information systems that collectively provide a suboptimal foundation needed to support a modern digital environment. To address this challenge, a detailed study was conducted in partnership with Network Rail to test a method that was adapted for the industry to identify appropriate, relevant and effective asset information requirements (AIRs). A robust library of AIRs will determine what data the organisation should be collecting and why these are necessary through design, construction, operation and disposal, hence informing the information requirements of a DT. The methodology was modified with four adaptations to improve its compatibility with the industry and was tested with 24 subject matter experts in the rail sector. It was concluded that integration of the AIR method would ensure that the rail industry is well positioned for digital transformation and provides a solid foundation to develop a DT. However, industry integration of the method would be a significant undertaking due to the amount of information that needs to be considered throughout the process, and so further research is required to improve its scalability.

The residence-based framework of measuring international exposure is increasingly less informative, as a growing number of firms locate in low-tax jurisdictions and issue securities through offshore subsidiaries. This has clouded the view of capital flows and investor exposures from standard sources such as the IMF Balance of Payments and the Coordinated Portfolio Investment Survey.
Which Output Gap Estimates Are Stable in Real Time and Why?
Authors: Barbarino Alessandro , Berge Travis J. , Chen Han , Stella Andrea
Published: December 2020

Output gaps that are estimated in real time can differ substantially from those estimated after the fact. We aim to understand the real-time instability of output gap estimates by comparing a suite of reduced-form models. We propose a new statistical decomposition and find that including a Okun’s law relationship improves real-time stability by alleviating the end-point problem. Models that include the unemployment rate also produce output gaps with relevant economic content. However, we find that no model of the output gap is clearly superior to the others along each metric we consider.
The Concept of Researching the Development of Destructive Personality Traits in Convicts
Authors: Grushin Fedor , Peremolotova Lilianna , Zhilko Irina
Published: December 2020

The priority tasks of modern Russian penitentiary policy include the development of an effective system of enforcing criminal punishments and other criminal law measures. The implementation of this multi-faceted task is impossible without taking into consideration the personal traits of convicts sentenced to incarceration. When prisoners spend time in a correctional institution and are forced to enter its specific environment, they acquire social and personal attitudes that, unfortunately, are more often negative than positive. In the current article the authors examine problems connected with identifying the traits that characterize the personality of a convict as a specific criminological category. They attempt to present their own concept of researching the signs (primarily, penitentiary ones) of the formation of destructive personality traits in convicts. The realization of this task includes studying those features and characteristics of a convicts personality that possess the meaning and content highlighting the value and systemic essence of this personality. The authors believe that a multi-level criminological concept would be most suitable for such research, this concept should make it possible to study the whole structure of a convicts personality in a comprehensive way, and it is the motivation of a convicts behavior. A convict, just like any person, possesses a complex of leading motives that comprise the essence of his personality and determine his behavior. When researching the motivation of criminal behavior, it is possible to trace the interconnection of internal and external factors, study the methods and conditions of a specific crime, the personality of a criminal. At present, the researchers in the penitentiary field and the employees of the penitentiary institutions agree that it is necessary to conduct special research of the formation of an integrated system of specific factors that influence the motivation of convicts and cause the destruction of personality traits, which is typical of places of confinement. The authors believe that a characteristic feature of the socio-psychological element of a convicts personality is the disruption in the development of his sphere of motivation and senses as one of the factors of its formation.
The Concept of Complicity in Corruption and Responsibility for It
Authors: Burlakov Vladimir
Published: December 2020

When the concepts «bribery» and «corruption» are used interchangeably it blurs, voluntarily or involuntarily, the borders between these related phenomena. Corruption is a consequence of bribery, but it also has its own distinctive features. The legal definition of corruption, found in the federal law of the Russian Federation, does not include essential qualities of this phenomenon. As a consequence, the Criminal Code norms prescribing liability for bribery still remain the normative basis of liability for corruption. Thus, these two phenomena are counteracted by the same measures of criminological and criminal law prevention, and, as a consequence, such measures lose their relevance and effectiveness, at least against one of the described offences. It is necessary to determine the essential feature of corruption in order to align its public danger with liability measures aimed at fighting it. This essential feature is the self-interested abuse of authority by an official with the purpose of aiding and abetting other persons in committing crimes. On the basis of such an understanding, the author concludes that it is necessary to criminalize corruption. It is suggested that the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation should be supplemented by an Article «Complicity in Corruption». Complicity in corruption is a complex crime that encompasses the situations when officials take bribes for using their authority to assist another person of persons in committing a crime. The proposed Article should determine liability for two types of complicity in corruption that differ in their degree of public danger: aiding and abetting corruption, when an official receives bribes and uses his authority to provide assistance to another person or people in committing a crime, and corrupt collusion, when an official receives bribes and uses his authority to provide assistance to an organized group or a criminal community in committing crimes on a permanent basis. The author analyzes the advantages of this Article in comparison with the Articles used today for qualifying corruption and shows the difference between the crime of complicity in corruption and similar crimes, specifically, those included in Part 3 of Art. 210 («Participation in a Criminal Community»).
Prevention of Female Offender Recidivism Through Vocational Training and Socially Useful Work in the Correctional Institutions of Russia, Germany and Switzerland
Authors: Latysheva Lyudmila , Muzychuk Tatiana , Spasennikova Marina
Published: December 2020

Recidivism is a rather complicated social and criminal law phenomenon, a special type of crime that threatens the national security of the country. It is characterized by a considerable level of public danger. The society is seriously worried by the recidivism of former inmates. In this connection, the prevention of repeat offences is one of the key tasks of the society and the law enforcement bodies. Public attention is drawn to the prevention of recidivism among, primarily, the most vulnerable groups, including women. In the last decade we have been witnessing a worrying steady trend for recidivism among former female inmates. On the whole, crimes of women act as an indicator of the moral condition of the society, they influence underage crime and have a negative impact on families. This situation requires the development and implementation of a complex of measures and activities to prevent recidivism among female inmates. The authors examine the possibility of reducing the level of such crimes by improving the effectiveness of the work of correctional institutions in the area of vocational training and involvement of female inmates in work; they highlight the issues connected with enrolling female inmates in vocational training programs and socially useful work; they also analyze the specific features of work adaptation of this category of convicts in penitentiary institutions of other countries, specifically, in Switzerland and Germany. It should be noted that foreign penitentiary systems put an emphasis on professional development as a method of preventing repeat offences. The main goal of professional training of inmates is to help them prepare for an independent life as law-abiding citizens after release. Instilling in inmates a habit of viewing work as a basis of their lives is an important factor of their post-penitentiary adaptation. In this connection, foreign penitentiary systems develop and implement programs that prepare inmates for life after the release, which include various variants of vocational training, professional development and work placement. The authors suggest introducing some amendments to the current Russian penitentiary legislation and the practice of its enforcement in the sphere of involving female convicts in professional training and work.
The Organization of Hacking Community: Criminological and Criminal Law Aspects
Authors: Begishev Ildar , Khisamova Zarina , Nikitin Sergey
Published: December 2020

Digital technology is an integral part of our daily lives. Regardless of whether we have a computer at home, whether we use the possibilities of obtaining state and municipal services in digital form or simply operate electronic gadgets, society's dependence on technology is increasing. A secure digital environment enhances trust and contributes to the creation of a stable and prosperous nation. Government and the business community are also taking advantage of the technological revolution through greater adoption and use of digital technologies. Traditional forms of crime have also evolved, as criminal associations increasingly use the information and telecommunications network - the Internet - to commit cybercrimes and increase their profits. Digital crime is developing at an incredibly fast pace, and new types of criminal acts are constantly emerging. So we need to keep up with digital technologies, understand the opportunities they create for cybercriminals, and how they can be used as a tool to combat cybercrime. The active use of digital technologies in all spheres of social life in the last three decades formed a background for the emergence of a special type of criminals - the so-called hackers. Criminal groups of hackers pose a public danger because, if they unite, they are capable of planning a large-scale computer attack which could target, among other things, critically important information infrastructure objects. Besides, hacker groups have become a real danger for both governments, large corporations, the military, and for private persons. The trend for blurring the boundaries between hacker groups and organized crime, that the experts predicted a few years ago, has now become a reality. In fact, it is possible to say that a new independent type of organized crime has emerged - the hacking community. These circumstances make it necessary to develop a special norm that provides for the liability for organizing hacking community or participating in it. Such a norm will allow for a complex approach to the criminal law counteraction against such criminal groups by ensuring an adequate criminal law assessment of the actions of the organizers and coordinators of hackers organizations.
Incorporación de Uracilo ADN glicosilasa / dUTPs en la reacción de PCR anidada para detectar Plasmodium falciparum y Plasmodium vivax: una estrategia para reducir el riesgo de contaminación
Authors: Herrera-Sandoval Carlos Alejandro , Lopera-Mesa Tatiana María
Published: December 2020

La reacción en cadena de la polimerasa (PCR) se emplea en investigación y como prueba diagnóstica para confirmar la infección malárica en muestras clínicas. Por ser un método con una sensibilidad cercana a 100%, es susceptible a la contaminación por amplicones, cuando se procesa un gran volumen de muestras, aumentando el riesgo de falsos positivos. Este estudio evaluó la incorporación del sistema uracilo ADN glicosilasa (UDG)-dUTPs en la reacción de PCR anidada (nPCR) para Plasmodium falciparum y Plasmodium vivax, como estrategia para prevenir la contaminación por amplicones en nuevas reacciones. Se empleó ADN de la cepa 3D7 de P. falciparum y una muestra clínica con infección confirmada por P. vivax. Se evaluó el efecto de reemplazar dTTPs por dUTPs en la reacción de nPCR y se verificó su efecto en el límite de detección. Se evaluó la acción degradante de la enzima UDG en reacciones de PCR contaminadas artificialmente con amplicones. Se cuantificó el ADN contaminante que fue capaz de degradar una unidad de UDG en este sistema. La sustitución de dTTPs por dUTPs no afectó la función de la Taq polimerasa, sin embargo, se observó una ligera disminución en la sensibilidad analítica de la nPCR cuando se incorporaron dUTPs. En reacciones contaminadas, la UDG fue capaz de degradar exclusivamente los amplicones contaminantes, sin afectar la amplificación del ADN nativo. Una unidad de UDG logró degradar completamente hasta 6 pg/µl de ADN contaminante. El sistema UDG-dUTPs puede prevenir la contaminación para mejorar el diagnóstico molecular en malaria.

El confesor Joaquín de Eleta en la gestión del Real Patronato (1761-1788)
Authors: Ferrándiz Moreno Mónica
Published: December 2020

RESUMENDurante los reinados de los primeros borbones, el confesor real desempeñó un papel fundamental en las provisiones beneficiales pertenecientes a la corona, así como en el resto de las tareas relacionadas con la gestión del patronato regio. Sin embargo, tras el ascenso de Carlos III al trono español en 1759, la situación cambió. Joaquín de Eleta, al frente del confesionario real durante el reinado de este monarca, no llegaría a disfrutar de las cotas de poder que alcanzaron sus predecesores dentro del ámbito beneficial. En este trabajo, pretendemos conocer el alcance de sus actuaciones en lo que respecta a la gestión del Patronato Real. En concreto, analizaremos su implicación y su peso en el reclutamiento del clero beneficial en un momento en el que la provisión de la práctica totalidad de los beneficios eclesiásticos anteriormente reservados al papado había pasado a manos de la corona.PALABRAS CLAVEConfesor real, Joaquín de Eleta, Carlos III, Real Patronato, provisiones beneficiales, clero secular. TITLEConfessor Joaquín de Eleta in Royal Patronage management (1761-1788)ABSTRACTDuring the reigns of the first Bourbons, the royal confessor played a fundamental role in beneficial provisions belonging to the Crown, as well as in the rest of the tasks related to the management of Royal Patronage. However, since the ascent of King Charles III to the Spanish throne in 1759, the situation changed. Joaquín de Eleta, in charge of the royal confessional during the reign of this monarch, did not manage to enjoy echelons of power that his predecessors achieved within the beneficial area. This paper will try to know the scope of his actions with regard to the management of Royal Patronage. In particular, we will look at his involvement and his weight in beneficial clergy recruitment at a time when the provision of almost all of ecclesiastical benefices previously reserved to papacy had passed over into the hands of the Crown.KEY WORDSRoyal confessor, Joaquín de Eleta, King Charles III, Royal Patronage, beneficial provisions, secular clergy.

La utilización del beneficio del común como argumento para la defensa del bien privado durante la lucha contra la langosta en el partido de Villanueva de La Serena a finales del siglo XVIII
Authors: Muñoz Pertierra Jesús M.ª
Published: December 2020

RESUMENDada la importancia de la agricultura en la economía del Antiguo Régimen, y el constante perjuicio que ésta sufría por la endémica manifestación de plagas de langosta, las comunidades afectadas solían adoptar distintas medidas para extinguir dicho mal o, cuanto menos, tratar de controlar su propagación. Sin embargo, las fuentes documentales también recogen variados casos en los que las acciones contra el insecto se vieron ralentizadas, limitadas, dificultadas e incluso impedidas por distintos motivos. Esta contribución se centra en el análisis de un caso concreto acaecido en tierras de La Serena (Extremadura), donde la respuesta asimétrica ejercida por los distintos sectores económicos ante las infestaciones manifiesta unos objetivos más lucrativos y privados que el enarbolado argumento del beneficio del común; empleado para justificar el uso de aquellas técnicas de extinción que resultasen más favorables para las expectativas económicas de cada uno de los grupos implicados.PALABRAS CLAVELangosta, plaga, Beneficio del común, siglo XVIII, La Serena (Extremadura). TITLEThe use of the benefi t of common as an argument for the defense of private property in the fi ght against locusts in the jurisdiction of Villanueva de La Serena at the late 18th centuryABSTRACTGiven the importance of agriculture in the Ancient Regime economy, and the constant damage it suffered due to the endemic manifestation of locust pests, the affected agrarian communities used to take different measures to extinguish that evil or, at least, have some control over its spread. However, the documentary sources also include several cases in which the actions against the insect were slowed down, limited, hindered and even prevented for various reasons. This contribution is focuses on the analysis of a specific case that occurred in the lands of La Serena (Extremadura), where the asymmetric response exerted by the differenteconomic sectors in front of infestations shows more lucrative and private objectives than the protective argument of the benefit of the common; reason used to justify the application of those locust extinction techniques that could be more favorable for the economic expectations of each one of the groups involved.KEY WORDSLocust, pest, benefit of the common, Eighteenth century, La Serena (Extremadura).
