E-szachy wobec performatyki
Authors: Szymala Jacek
Published: May 2023

Proponuję spojrzenie na szachy, zwłaszcza e-szachy, przez performatykę. Performatyczny to sprawczy, wydajny, równy (jako podmiot), aktywny (w sensie działania). Komputeryzacja szachów, pojawienie się automatycznego zapisu partii paradoksalnie zmniejsza ich performatywność; w miarę archiwizowania, dodawania gier do wirtualnych bibliotek, zanika fenomen kibicowania „tu i teraz”. Współcześnie dochodzi do zbliżenia performansu kulturowego, technicznego i organizacyjnego. Ludzie i komputery performują; stajemy się wspólnikami, szachy stają się e-szachami, zdarza się również, że człowiek zaczyna od e-szachów, zanim siądzie przed rzeczywistym przeciwnikiem. W artykule posłużyłem się metodą autoetnografii – opisałem, jak podjąłem wyzwanie zorganizowania drużyny, klubu i turnieju szachowego w szkole średniej z wykorzystaniem narzędzi i metod tradycyjnych oraz elektronicznych. Edukacyjna rola e-szachów na gruncie edukacji performatycznej jest nie do przecenienia.
Intelligent cluster construction of internet financial security protection system in banking industry
Authors: Wang Yanzhao
Published: May 2023

As the rapid advancement of information security company is developing quickly and the technology including big information, big computer, large cloud, and artificial intelligence are being widely used, network security has entered a new era. While ushering in huge development opportunities, it also faces severe tests. Network security is a major issue related to the comprehensive realization of a well-off society and national security, and has risen to the national strategic level. The current financial industry network security construction mainly focuses on team, process construction, and the research and development of individual tools and equipment. It lacks system research and implementation guidelines for defense technology construction based on industry IT characteristics. At the same time, there is also a lack of objective and unified measurement and evaluation standards for enterprise security defense capabilities, which restricts the improvement of cybersecurity capabilities in the financial industry to a certain extent. In terms of actual combat exercises, in various actual combat exercises over the years, the technical architecture of the bank’s network security defense has withstood the test of high-intensity confrontation. The defense process achieved zero deductions, and stood out among the participating defending teams through traceability and countermeasures, which effectively improved the network security large-scale group operations and security protection capabilities. The effectiveness of the technical architecture design is verified in actual combat, which shows that the control of the bank’s internet financial security protection system is effective. With digital computing, all banking transactions are fully automatically implemented and the bank’s clientele is systematically self-managed. It predicts that using this system, the speed can be increased by 98% and the accuracy can be increased by 12%.
Out-of-State Donors and Nationalized Politics in U.S. Senate Elections
Authors: Sievert Joel , Mathiasen Stephanie
Published: May 2023

During the last several elections, numerous high-profile candidates for the U.S. Senate have raised a majority of their campaign funds from donors who reside in a different state. These efforts have garnered substantial media coverage and have been fodder for attacks by the candidate’s opponents. Despite the increased attention to the role of out-of-state donors, it is not clear if these cases are outliers or if this is now common practice in our more nationalized electoral environment. In this paper, we examine trends in Senate candidate’s fundraising from out-of-state donors between 2000 and 2020. We find that there has been a general increase over time in Senate candidates’ reliance on out-of-state donations. There is, however, variation in terms of who relies heavily upon the support of a more national donor base. A Senate candidate’s share of out-of-state donations varies with factors like incumbency, electoral competition, and geography.

Published: May 2023

Liver cirrhosis affects the structures and physiological functions of the intestine. Our previous study revealed that liver injury inhibited 25-hydroxylation of vitamin D (25(OH)-VD). The aim of this study was to investigate the roles and mechanisms of vitamin D in liver cirrhosis-induced intestinal injury. The rat liver cirrhosis model was established through the administration of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) for 8 weeks. Hematoxylin–eosin staining was performed to unveil the intestinal injury induced by liver cirrhosis. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) analysis were used to determine the levels of 25(OH)-VD, vitamin D receptor, Cytochrome P450 24A1 (CYP24A1), and α-defensin 5 (DEFA5) in rat and human serum of liver cirrhosis. Furthermore, liver cirrhosis rats were treated with low-dose (500 IU/kg) and high-dose (2,000 IU/kg) vitamin D intraperitoneally. The expression levels of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway were evaluated by RT-PCR and Western blot. In conclusion, we determined the deficiency of vitamin D and down-regulation of DEFA5 and intestinal damage induced by liver cirrhosis. Moreover, vitamin D effectively inhibited liver cirrhosis-induced intestinal inflammation and oxidative stress through the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway. Vitamin D might be a promising therapeutic strategy for future treatment of liver-induced intestinal injury.
Sustainable chemistry with plasmonic photocatalysts

Published: May 2023

There is a pressing global need to increase the use of renewable energy sources and limit greenhouse gas emissions. Towards this goal, highly efficient and molecularly selective chemical processes that operate under mild conditions are critical. Plasmonic photocatalysis uses optically-resonant metallic nanoparticles and their resulting plasmonic, electronic, and phononic light-matter interactions to drive chemical reactions. The promise of simultaneous high-efficiency and product-selective reactions with plasmon photocatalysis provides a compelling opportunity to rethink how chemistry is achieved. Plasmonic nanoparticles serve as nanoscale ‘antennas’ that enable strong light–matter interactions, surpassing the light-harvesting capabilities one would expect purely from their size. Complex composite structures, combining engineered light harvesters with more chemically active components, are a focal point of current research endeavors. In this review, we provide an overview of recent advances in plasmonic catalysis. We start with a discussion of the relevant mechanisms in photochemical transformations and explain hot-carrier generation and distributions from several ubiquitous plasmonic antennae. Then we highlight three important types of catalytic processes for sustainable chemistry: ammonia synthesis, hydrogen production and CO2 reduction. To help elucidate the reaction mechanism, both state-of-art electromagnetic calculations and quantum mechanistic calculations are discussed. This review provides insights to better understand the mechanism of plasmonic photocatalysis with a variety of metallic and composite nanostructures toward designing and controlling improved platforms for green chemistry in the future.

Authors: Han Haishui , Zhang Qun , Lv Weifeng , Han Lu , Ji Zemin , Zhang Shanyan , Zhao Changhong , Kang Hao , Sun Linghui , Shen Rui
Published: May 2023

Velocity sensitivity refers to the possibility and degree of reservoir permeability decline caused by the migration of various particles in the reservoir rock due to the increase in fluid flow velocity and the blockage of pore channels. To improve the development results of M reservoir in Karamay Oil field, two reservoir cores were selected to carry out velocity sensitivity experiments. The permeability of No. 1 core decreases obviously when the flow rate is greater than 0.04 mL/min. Therefore, it can be considered that the injection rate of velocity sensitivity is between 0.04 and 0.06 mL/min, and the displacement rate should be less than 0.04 mL/min in the core displacement experiment. When the flow rate is greater than 0.5 mL/min, the permeability of No. 2 core decreases significantly. This is mainly due to the high permeability and critical velocity of No. 2 core. The study can provide a basis for the selection of displacement velocity in core displacement experiments, and also provide a reference for the determination of reasonable injection-production velocity in actual production.

Published: May 2023

Bis ethoxylated cationic surfactant (BOECS) is synthesized. The prepared surfactant’s structure configuration was verified through a variety of spectral and physicochemical techniques, including FT-IR, MS,1HNMR, and surface activity evaluations. BOECS applications as a C-steel corrosion inhibitor in 1.0 N HCl and 1.0 N H2SO4 and sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) mitigations have been investigated thoroughly. Physical properties of the BOECS indicate its potential adsorption affinity at the air/water interface. The electrical conductivity determines the CMC value in accordance with the surface tension value. Electrochemical kinetic parameters indicate the BOECS is sorted as a mixed-type inhibitor and has an inhibition efficacy of 91.22 % and 81.26% for HCl and H2SO4, respectively. Active centers of BOECS structure enhance its adsorption at the electrolyte/C-steel. Calculated adsorption energy change (∆G
ads) and theoretical adsorption energy (E
ads) values suggest strong and spontaneous BOECS adsorption. The cytotoxic performance of the synthesized BOECS exhibited a potent inhibitory potential against the SRB. The outcomes of this research exhibit that the BOECS can lower SRB growth from 106 to 102 cell/mL.
The flow of ideas: shared symbolism during the Neolithic emergence in Southwest Asia: WF16 and Göbekli Tepe
Authors: Mithen Steven , Richardson Amy , Finlayson Bill
Published: May 2023

During the Late Epipalaeolithic and Early Neolithic, societies across the Levant transformed their social, cultural and economic organisation, with new forms of food production, architecture and material culture. But to what extent were regional developments connected and how, in particular, did ideas and objects flow between the most southern and northern reaches of Southwest Asia? Finds from the Pre-Pottery Neolithic site of WF16 in southern Jordan resonate with those from Göbekli Tepe and other sites hundreds of kilometres to the north. Emphasising shared symbolism and ideology, the authors explore how connections may have arisen and how they were maintained, revealing expansive social networks spanning Southwest Asia that underpinned the emergence of farming.

A nanocomposite consisting of (PMMA/PS) polymeric blend was prepared with the nanomaterials (Al2O3) by the casting method. The structural and dielectric characteristic were studied. The optical microscope photos demonstrated high homogeneousness and fine dispersal of Al2O3 NPs inside the blend polymer films, as well as the formation of charge transfer complex. The FTIR indicate to a physical interference between the polymer matrix and nanoparticles. SEM images showed agglomeration of small and close packed group of elliptical particles on the surface of the polymeric matrix as a result of adding different number of Al2O3 NPs. The insulator constant and the insulator loss of the (PMMA-PS/Al2O3) nanocomposites reduce with the rise in frequency, while the A.C electrical conductivity increases with increase of the frequency. The insulator constant, insulator loss and A.C electrical conductivity of (PMMA-PS/Al2O3) nanocomposites rises with raising of Al2O3 nanoparticles concentrations. The dielectric constant, dielectric loss and A.C electrical conductivity after irradiation have high values compared before irradiation which attributed to the plasma interact with the molecular of these nanocomposites. As a results of their improved electrical conductivity after irradiation, polymeric nanocomposites have been proposed for use in electronic devices, sensors, and batteries.

Published: May 2023

Obesity is a physical condition that can lead to health disorder. An increase in body mass index can be a risk factor for some non-communicable diseases, among which are cardiovascular diseases. College students are among the people with high risk of obesity. This review aims to describe factors that can cause obesity and hence the increasing risk of cardiovascular diseases in college students. We first collected 608 studies associated with our review and then selected 9 studies that highly correlate to our specific purpose. We evaluated each selected study for its quality and risk of bias using STROBE. We then conducted data extraction of each study. It can be concluded from the results of data extraction that even though there are various factors contributing to the occurence of obesity in college students, skipping breakfast and high snack consumption have a close relationship with the occurence. In addition, inadequate physical activity and high calorie diet also contribute to its occurence. Finally, smoking is also associated with the occurence of obesity, that can lead to the increasing risk of cardiovascular diseases.
SOE Corporate Governance Reform in Lithuania - Explained & Еmpirically Tested
Authors: Jurkonis Liudas , Merkliopas Šarūnas , Gabulas Deividas
Published: May 2023

Following previous research on management efficiency of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in Lithuania, this paper continues previous discussion via extension of the observed time period seeking to continuously analyze the impact of corporate governance principles to the management effectiveness of Lithuanian SOEs.For the purpose of this study, elements of corporate governance principles established in the initial reform of the SOEs in Lithuania are used as key dependent variables to measure and quantify the dynamics of corporate governance culture and its impact to the management efficiency of SOEs. Analysis performed is of a special importance as it covers the 10-year period (2010–2020) and could serve as a case study in analyzing practical implications of managerialism principles in public sector and SOEs specifically.New public management paradigm (Politt, 1993) combined with policy learning theory (Bennett, Howlett, 1992) are used as the theoretical background to explain the initiation and logical framework of SOE reform as well as the selection of variables used in this study. Additionally, principles of corporate governance established by OECD and other international organizations (OECD, 2015) are also used to enrich the analytical framework.The results of the analysis do not only prove that the implementation of corporate governance principles has a positive influence on the efficiency of management of SOEs, but also reveals additional factors that were not identified in the previous research – this impact is not static, but rather dynamic changing in accordance with the maturity of managerial practices within SOEs. The revealed dynamic nature of effects of the SOE policy should lead to the continuation of research seeking to expand it both geographically and vertically including other governmental organizations into the scope of future research.
Derivation of short-term design rainfall intensity from daily rainfall data for urban drainage design using empirical equations in robe town, Ethiopia
Authors: Bibi Takele Sambeto
Published: May 2023

Flooding is a significant impact that regularly affects the majority of cities/towns in developing countries due to inadequate drainage systems that were designed without considering hydrological-hydraulic efficiency caused by design rainfall intensity. Design rainfall intensity is essential to urban stormwater management systems; however, obtaining long-term, short-term design rainfall in developing countries such as Ethiopia is challenging. As a result, this study is conducted to derive short-term design rainfall intensity from daily rainfall data for Robe town using three empirical equations for urban drainage design: Indian Meteorological Method (IMD), Modified Indian Meteorological Method (MIMD), and Ethiopian Road Authority Method (ERAM). The results show that the estimated design rainfall by IMD is greater than other methods; the relationship between IMD, MIMD, ERAM, and existing ranges from 0.57 to 1.001, 1.015 to 1.218, and 0.890 to 1.027, respectively. According to the findings of this study, the design rainfall intensity of all empirical equations is not the same in all return periods and durations. Furthermore, the peak stormwater that caused flooding will vary due to variations in rainfall intensity. Thus, this study strongly suggested that the experts consider each empirical equation and select the accurate design rainfall to design adequate stormwater drainage systems for Robe Town. To manage unexpected urban inundation caused by urban development, short-duration design rainfall and other sub-catchment characteristics will need to be considered.

Authors: Rani Kirti , Kondal Vishal , Singh Karn Pratap
Published: May 2023

Peanut allergy is life threatening health concern that caused by allergenic proteins termed as Arachis hypogea that present in peanut. The most fatal allergic reaction to peanuts is anaphylaxis that is harmful to the individuals who are allergic to peanut allergens. Sometimes, traces of peanut allergens contamination are also occurred during food processing. Hence, it is very much important to detect peanut allergen in food products and our proposed study was carried out to detect peanut allergens (Arachis hypogea allergen) in various processed and unprocessed foods using real-time Polymerase Chain reaction (real-time PCR) technique as a rapid and sensitive method. First, DNA was extracted from the food samples using commercially available DNA extraction kit and further quantity & quality of the extracted DNA were tested. The extracted DNA was further observed for amplification to test the presence of peanut allergens in chosen food samples to detect Arachis hypogea allergen (peanut allergen) positive food samples. The sensitivity and specificity of proposed method was assayed for its limit of detection which was found to be 0.01% and obtained efficiency was 101.2%. Spiking of peanut powder in maize flour was performed at different concentrations.

Authors: Kumar A Venkat , Nandurkar Aparna
Published: May 2023

Purpose: The study aims to investigate on application of ICF framework’s third-party disability in mothers of children with pre-lingual hearing impairment using hearing aids and cochlear implants. Method: This is a comparative study of 30 mothers of children (age between 8-12) using cochlear implant (G-1) and 30 mothers of children (age between 8-12) using hearing aids (G-2) was included for the study. A questionnaire was developed based on ICF-CY version, consisting of 46 questions distributed across 9 domains. The questionnaire form in the Hindi language was provided to the participants (mothers) with enough amount of time to complete it. For mothers who were not able to self-administer the tool, the researcher helped by interviewing them. Due to COVID- 19 pandemic and ensuing lockdown most parents (mothers) were unwilling to report to the clinic. Owing to this, to ensure safety of parents and children, data was obtained through virtual mode. Results: Across all domains, the comparison between Group A and Group B indicates no statistically significant difference except for two domains (general tasks and behaviours, communication). When the total third-party disability scores were analysed, it is seen that there is significant difference in third-party disability scores of the two groups. Conclusion: Findings enhances mothers of children with hearing aids report greater third-party disability as compared to mothers of children using unilateral cochlear implant. Implication: The study included only mothers and a limited number of them, hence generalizing the findings to a larger population may not be appropriate.
Employment of serpentinite rock in architecture
Authors: Carmignano Ottavio Raul Domenico Riberti , G Brandao Paulo Roberto
Published: May 2023

The serpentinite rock is formed by minerals of the serpentine group, such as antigorite and lizardite, and can be found in several countries around the world. It has several commercial applications, among them its use as an ornamental rock. It can be found in numerous constructions, such as churches, houses and buildings. However, trade names are adopted for ornamental rocks, making it difficult to identify and confirm the existence of the specific rock in buildings. Using bibliographical research, the present work aims to study the use of serpentinite as an ornamental rock, identifying its first applications in the world and presenting commercial names adopted for this rock, allowing a better understanding of the relevance of this rock in world architecture. More than sixty commercial names of serpentinites used as ornamental rocks, in different applications, throughout different civilizations, were found.

Published: May 2023

We report here the experimental and theoretical investigation of the bis(4-furoyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one)oxoperoxomolybdenum(VI) complex molecule. It was prepared by the reaction of (2:1) 4-furoyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one and [MoO(O)2]2+ in an aqueous ethanol medium. Characterization was performed by elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic measurements, electrochemical analysis, and infrared and electronic spectral studies. Theoretical validation was performed by density functional theory calculations using B3LYP as the LANL2DZ function. The molecular geometry results show a distorted pseudo-pentagonal bipyramidal geometry together with the O7 coordination mode around the Mo(VI) center. The FMO energies allow the determination of the atomic and molecular parameters and also represent the charge transfer across the molecule.

Amphibian and reptile diversity from Isla Santay (Durán, Ecuador) has been underestimated due to the lack of monitoring throughout the island. Historically, this island has also been affected by anthropic landscape changes which limit the occurrence of certain species and favors the dispersion of opportunistic or more tolerant species. Such species dynamics tend to be more evident on islands, since their isolation limits species’ mobility. We present an updated checklist of the herpetofauna of Isla Santay Durán, Ecuador, and report for the first time the occurrence of two introduced species, Anolis sagrei Duméril & Bibron, 1837, Brown Anole, and Hemydactylus frenatus Duméril & Bibron, 1836.

EPISTEMOLOGÍA Y PSICOLOGÍA EN EL NEOKANTISMO TEMPRANO DE WILHELM WINDELBAND
Authors: Bonifaci Jacinto Páez
Published: May 2023

RESUMEN El presente artículo ofrece una reconstrucción de los argumentos centrales de “Sobre la certeza”, texto publicado en 1873 por el filósofo neokantiano Wilhelm Windelband. La literatura especializada afirma que esta obra es representativa de una fase temprana del neokantismo, caracterizada por una tendencia psicologista. Por nuestra parte, mostraremos que Windelband ya presenta en este texto una interpretación de la lógica entendida como lógica transcendental y como ciencia de las leyes normativas del pensar. A través de esta reconstrucción buscamos ofrecer las bases para una narrativa de la transformación del neokantismo entre 1870 y 1880 alternativa a aquella ofrecida por Klaus Christian Köhnke.
A NEGATIVIDADE DA NATUREZA NO IDEALISMO DE J. G. FICHTE; UM EMBATE COM F. W. J. SCHELLING
Authors: Coelho Humberto
Published: May 2023

RESUMO Caricaturado como criador de uma filosofia subjetivista extrema, que apresenta o mundo como mero produto do pensamento, Fichte teve de confrontar em diferentes fases de sua vida acusações de ateísmo, idealismo ingênuo e simplismo. Reagiu a todas exatamente da mesma forma, reexplicando seu sistema, ou redirecionando-o para cobrir os desafios que se avolumavam. Contudo, parte de seus críticos, particularmente os que viam nele um conceito de natureza muito deficitário, como Schelling, por ocasião do forte desentendimento entre os dois por volta de 1801, crerão que a obra madura de Fichte tenta sanar o erro. A pesquisa histórica recente, no entanto, mostra que Fichte estava bem ciente dos problemas ligados à filosofia natural já por volta de 1798, e admitia ter dificuldade em resolvê-los. Defenderemos que a formulação original do conceito de natureza de Fichte não chega a ser tão distinta de sua versão posterior, e que esta não se resume a uma mera reação defensiva diante do avanço da filosofia da natureza de Schelling.
MILITARY ETHICS: RETHINKING CIVIL-MILITARY RELATIONS IN BRAZIL
Authors: Dall’Agnol Darlei , Dall’Agnol Gustavo Fornari
Published: May 2023

ABSTRACT This paper presents a solid normative approach in military ethics, which justifies the rule of law in a constitutional regime capable of fixing the proper role of the Armed Forces in Brazil. Deploying this ethical framework, it analyzes the relevant literature, especially authors who defend civilian supremacy for the good functioning of a democratic society. Afterwards, some models of civil-military relations are introduced to establish the parameters and indicators of proper democratic consolidation. These parameters are applied to recent events, revealing that Brazil is regressing in its civilian control over the military. Finally, some practical proposals for reversing this tendency are put forward in pursuit of a fully democratic regime in Brazil.
A NOÇÃO HUMIANA DE ‘CONSCIÊNCIA’ NO APÊNDICE AO TRATADO DA NATUREZA HUMANA
Authors: Freitas Vinícius França
Published: May 2023

RESUMO O artigo avança a hipótese de que David Hume não define consciência como ‘percepção ou pensamento refletido’, como parece sugerir uma passagem do vigésimo oitavo parágrafo do ‘Apêndice’ ao Tratado da natureza humana. A partir da observação de algumas dificuldades relativas às compreensões de consciência como ‘percepção’ e como ‘pensamento refletido’, argumenta-se que, na referida passagem, Hume tem em vista o fenômeno da autoconsciência, o modo como o eu está consciente de si próprio.
LÓGICA DEL REBASAMIENTO. EL EMPIRSMO SUPERIOR DE DELEUZE Y BERGSON
Authors: Melgarejo Felipe Larrea
Published: May 2023

RESUMEN El presente artículo indaga en la configuración de un empirismo superior en el pensamiento temprano de Gilles Deleuze. Si bien, atenderemos principalmente su lectura de Bergson, el antecedente de Empirisme et Subjectivité es crucial para nuestro objetivo propuesto, ya que ambos autores leídos por Deleuze durante la década de los 50’ del siglo pasado se encuentran en conceptos y problemas transversales en el dominio de dicho empirismo. Entre esos conceptos están el de hábito, duración o el de tendencia, que serán desarrollados en nuestro artículo, pero sin embargo, creemos que es en la noción de rebasamiento (dépassement) donde se configura la esencia de este empirismo y que no ha sido del todo atendida por los comentaristas deleuzianos. Esta lógica del rebasamiento postula que el empirismo superior no depende en primera instancia de la experiencia ordinaria, es decir, no es un empirismo que trata de la experiencia en un sentido laxo o simple. Más bien, se tratará del rebasamiento de dicha experiencia meramente psicológica y es ahí también donde el problema de las condiciones es fundamental para esta lógica empirista que se acercará a lo que Deleuze posteriormente llama “empirismo trascendental”.
NIETZSCHE E O NASCIMENTO DA ÓPERA A PARTIR DO ESPÍRITO ALEXANDRINO
Authors: Moraes Rodrigo Juventino Bastos de
Published: May 2023

RESUMO O artigo pretende apresentar a origem da ópera moderna, no pensamento do jovem Nietzsche, em paralelo ao nascimento da tragédia grega antiga com cuja comparação pretendemos mostrar como se dá a formação da primeira sob a insígnia de uma restrição pulsional. A ideia é apresentar a origem da ópera, como Nietzsche a entendia a partir da leitura de Zur Tonkunst de Ernst Lindner, como uma crítica ao processo de racionalização ocidental que aprisionou a força produtora da Natureza a partir da sobreposição da consciência à força inconsciente produtora da arte autêntica. Mesmo no caso de um gênero dramático que se utiliza da música, a forma de expressão que em tese exprime a própria Ideia do mundo.
Do “Tratado sobre Probabilidade” à “Teoria Geral”: o conceito de racionalidade em Keynes
Authors: CATÃO LUIS
Published: May 2023

RESUMO O objetivo deste artigo é reavaliar o papel da incerteza na macroeconomia de Keynes, explorando os conceitos de probabilidade, crença racional e ação racional, conforme aparecem no Tratado sobre Probabilidade. Três reivindicações principais são então feitas. Primeiro, existem laços substanciais entre a concepção de racionalidade humana no Tratado de Probabilidade e a Teoria Geral. Em segundo lugar, Keynes atribui considerável importância aos elementos racionais envolvidos no processo de decisão de investimento e sugere que eles normalmente levem à estabilidade macroeconômica. A instabilidade é, portanto, explicada por um choque institucional específico para uma economia que já é propensa a crises devido ao funcionamento não perfeito de certos mercados-chave. Nesta perspectiva, a literatura pós-keynesiana é enganosa ao culpar a incerteza pela instabilidade capitalista e pelo desemprego. Em terceiro lugar, seguindo as dicas de Keynes, sugiro que um programa de pesquisa institucionalista forneça uma base firme para modelar o comportamento do investimento sob incerteza de uma maneira mais realista do que normalmente o clonado.
Wage rigidity and unemployment: a comment on Kohn
Authors: AMADEO EDWARD J. , DUTT AMITAVA KHRISHNA
Published: May 2023

ABSTRACT This paper examines loanable fund models with a stabilized interest rate, in which the banking system bridges the gap between the flow of demand and the provision of funds. A typical Mickselian model is developed to emphasize the importance of credit and inflation (deflation) in closing the gap between savings and investment. Substituting the nominal interest rate for the real - an appropriate modification in a model whose inflation is relevant - and using the Robertsonian definition of income, we realize that, depending on the reaction of ‘lacking’ and investment to inflation, there is the possibility of the system become unstable. By introducing unemployment into the system, we realize that investment is more sensitive than the lack of inflation, the greater the degree of wage flexibility, the greater the level of unemployment balance, in the face of the demand shock, and the greater the chances of macroeconomic instability. Finally, we demonstrate that if we replace the Robertsonian definition of income with Keynesian, investment becomes more sensitive to inflation, making wage rigidity necessarily a good deal.
Keynes’s monetary theory: a partial survey
Authors: CHICK VICTORIA
Published: May 2023

ABSTRACT The title of the paper alerts the reader to the fact that while the role of money in Keynes’s earlier work is alluded to, it is mostly the monetary contribution of the General Theory (to which the author is particularly partial) which is surveyed here. The General Theory represents a breakthrough in monetary theory both broadly and narrowly defined. Money in the General Theory is all-pervasive. It is essential in the sense of Radner and Hahn. Money is also essential in allowing Keynes to break away, more profoundly than before, from equilibrium economics. Monetary theory narrowly defined also represents a breakthrough: speculative demand is a revolutionary concept, driving a wedge between the rate of interest and the rate of profit. The concept is elaborated and compared with Hicks’s treatment. The article ends with a brief section on the finance motive and endogenous money.
Sobre dinheiro e valor: uma crítica às posições de Brunhoff e Mollo
Authors: PAULANI LEDA MARIA
Published: May 2023

Resumo Este artigo trata da relação entre dinheiro e valor na obra de Marx. Tem três propósitos. A primeira (seção I) é criticar a abordagem de Brunhoff a esse assunto em “Money in Marx” (1978). A segunda (seção II) é demonstrar que essa concepção pode implicar em resultados que parecem inadequados para uma correta compreensão do capitalismo. Por fim, a seção III visa responder algumas considerações críticas feitas por Mollo (1991) sobre a abordagem de Fausto sobre a questão. Chama-se atenção para aspectos metodológicos e teóricos no trabalho como um todo.
Desregulamentação e o controle do abuso do poder econômico: teoria e prática
Authors: FARINA ELIZABETH MARIA MERCIER QUERIDO
Published: May 2023

Resumo A desregulamentação e o renascimento da aplicação antitruste são duas tendências recentes em países desenvolvidos e também no terceiro mundo. À primeira vista, eles parecem inconsistentes, já que a desregulamentação enfatiza a organização do mercado livre, enquanto a política antitruste limita as estratégias de negócios privados. Este artigo discute as razões econômicas para a regulamentação e fiscalização antitruste e a relação entre as políticas industriais e anti \truste. Alguns exemplos históricos são trazidos à discussão, incluindo a experiência brasileira.
O sistema financeiro e o financiamento do crescimento: uma alternativa pós-Keynesiana à visão convencional
Authors: STUDART ROGÉRIO
Published: May 2023

RESUMO Os modelos de liberalização financeira têm sido, nos últimos dezenove anos, a base do pensamento dominante sobre o papel dos mercados e instituições financeiras no desenvolvimento econômico e a base para a formulação de políticas em muitos países menos desenvolvidos. Este artigo apresenta uma avaliação crítica da literatura sobre liberalização financeira e aponta para uma visão alternativa baseada na teoria pós-keynesiana. Essa visão alternativa é baseada em três aspectos da economia monetária. Primeiro, poupança não fornece financiamento: o papel da poupança não está relacionado ao financiamento da acumulação de capital, mas ao seu financiamento. Segundo, a acumulação de capital aumenta a fragilidade dos bancos, que pode ser aliviada por meio de financiamento. Por fim, como modelamos o circuito de financiamento, economia de investimento e investimento depende de instituições e convenções que estão evoluindo.
Os efeitos de variações cambiais sobre o déficit público
Authors: NABÃO MÁRCIA
Published: May 2023

RESUMO O estudo mede o efeito direto da política cambial nas finanças públicas no Brasil no período 1985-1988. Com o objetivo de medir os efeitos da política cambial, será utilizada a variação da taxa de câmbio real em relação ao dólar americano. Foi realizada a compilação de todas as receitas e despesas públicas, afetadas pelas mudanças nas taxas de câmbio, bem como sua consolidação. Para esse fim, a balança de pagamentos do setor público foi extraída de dados reais e, na sua ausência, de estimativas. A pesquisa conclui que a relação entre o setor público brasileiro e o setor externo, regida pelo alto endividamento externo, determina uma resposta negativa direta ao impacto do déficit fiscal do setor público a uma depreciação real da taxa de câmbio.
Preços mínimos e estabilização de preços agrícolas
Authors: CARVALHO MARIA AUXILIADORA DE , SILVA CÉSAR ROBERTO LEITE DA
Published: May 2023

RESUMO Este trabalho analisa a política de preços mínimos no Brasil. Algumas medidas de spread de preços são realizadas em séries temporais de preços mensais para estimar o impacto da política nas séries de arroz e milho. Os resultados sugerem que mudanças na política de preços não modificariam o desempenho histórico das séries temporais de preços para essas culturas, exceto o caso dos preços de intervenção que funcionam desde 1988.
