Efficient Orthogonal Bicomplex Bilinear DSP Algorithm Design
Authors: Valkova-Jarvis Zlatka , Mihaylova Dimitriya , Stoynov Viktor
Published: November 2020

The present paper describes the development of a new technique for designing orthogonal bicomplex Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms. In contrast to those previously reported on, this novel method is of universal application while being unaffected by either the type or the order of the real digital processing algorithm employed as a prototype. The proposed technique builds on Watanabe and Nishihara’s complex orthogonal transformation, and converts real or complex orthogonal transfer functions into bicomplex orthogonal ones. In this study, the new technique is applied to the design and testing of orthogonal bilinear bicomplex filters with a canonical number of elements, the main advantage of which is that they are several times lower in order. In this way, bilinear bicomplex orthogonal transfer functions are made up of real coefficient ones of the fourth-order, thereby reducing the order of the filter by a factor of four. The experiments demonstrate that the properties of the prototype filter are acquired by the bicomplex orthogonal filters, irrespective of the prototype being complex or real in nature.
Indoor Air Quality Assessment in a Single-Family House Equipped with Demand Controlled Mechanical Ventilation
Authors: Müller Jarosław , Dębowski Maciej
Published: November 2020

The paper presents the results of modelling airflow for ventilation of a single-family house with an area of 180 m2. The building was equipped with mechanical ventilation with the possibility of varying the airflow. The airflow was calculated as a function of carbon dioxide concentration. The presence of people in selected rooms was an internal source of carbon dioxide. In order to properly design of a ventilation system and then model the contamination level, ContamW software was used. The year-long cost analysis was carried out for the installation working with variable airflow (day, night). The analysis took into account the price of the electricity used by the fans of Air Handling Unit and meteorological data to estimate the power input to the heater of the Unit. Different scenarios of system operation were included as an input data in order to find a difference in energy consumption. The calculations were to answer the question of whether it is necessary to apply expensive and advanced system that enables individual control of the airflow in every room or use the simple control of the central unit to vary the airflow in the ventilation system of single-family houses. The difference in operating cost between the system that maintains 800 and 600 ppm reaches 100 % and demonstrates the need of simple demand controlled ventilation system.
The Archimedean trap: Why traditional reinforcement learning will probably not yield AGI
Authors: Alexander Samuel Allen
Published: November 2020

After generalizing the Archimedean property of real numbers in such a way as to make it adaptable to non-numeric structures, we demonstrate that the real numbers cannot be used to accurately measure non-Archimedean structures. We argue that, since an agent with Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) should have no problem engaging in tasks that inherently involve non-Archimedean rewards, and since traditional reinforcement learning rewards are real numbers, therefore traditional reinforcement learning probably will not lead to AGI. We indicate two possible ways traditional reinforcement learning could be altered to remove this roadblock.
Atmospheric humidity is unlikely to serve as an important water source for crustose soil lichens in the Tabernas Desert
Authors: Kidron Giora J. , Kronenfeld Rafael
Published: November 2020

Dew is commonly regarded as an important water source for lichens. This is also the case for crustose lichens that are attached to the substrate, whether rocks or soil. While being verified during ample research on rock-dwelling lichens in the Negev, the findings from soil-dwelling lichens (lichen biocrusts) are not conclusive. In the Tabernas Desert, the soil surface is characterized by a lush cover of crustose lichens. These soil biocrusts (biological soil crusts) were reported to use dew for photosynthesis while, at the same time, it was also observed that these crustose chlorolichens are relatively non-wettable. In an attempt to explore the apparent controversy, two year-long meteorological data (minimum air temperature and relative humidity, RH), during which chlorolichens were thought to utilize dew for photosynthesis (2006–2007) were analyzed. The analysis includes a comparison to the meteorological conditions that prevailed in the Negev during 135 days of manual dew measurements. As found for the Negev, net photosynthesis by the chlorolichens is expected once the RH, as measured at the meteorological station, is ≥90% while vapor condensation (dew) is expected once RH is ≥95%. RH in the Negev was substantially higher than the average RH of 75.0–87.2% registered during the rainless days of 2006–2007 in the Tabernas, implying that RH in the Tabernas is too low to facilitate frequent dew formation and net photosynthesis by the lichens. Photosynthesis in the Tabernas is mainly confined to rainy periods, taking place either due to direct wetting by rain, or following vapor condensation from the subsurface (distillation). Our findings do not support the view that dew is an important water source for the establishment and growth of crustose soil lichens in the Tabernas. Moreover, the low RH in the Tabernas may also imply that dew may only have a very limited role in providing water to lithobionts in this ecosystem.
Organizational Identification at a Multinational Company
Authors: Visscher Irene , Beerkens Roos
Published: November 2020

Objective: The present case study investigates to what extent employees working at the Dutch site of an American multinational biotechnology organization identify with this company. According to prior research, organizational identification leads to higher commitment to the organization. Gaining more insight into which factors drive or impede organizational identification can help organizations increase their employees’ identification and thus, commitment. Two hypotheses were tested. First, organizational identification was expected to be higher among international employees than Dutch employees. Second, a correlation was expected between organizational identification and organizational commitment.

Methodology: A questionnaire was conducted among 296 employees of the company site. The scale of Edwards and Peccei (2007) was used to measure the construct of organizational identification. Mowday et al.’s (1979) Organizational Commitment Questionnaire was used to measure the construct of organizational commitment. All data was statistically analyzed with the software SPSS; an independent samples t-test was performed to test the first hypothesis and a Pearson correlation coefficient was computed to test the second hypothesis.

Findings: Both hypotheses were confirmed. A significant difference was found between international employees (M = 5.25, SD = 1.05, n = 81) and Dutch employees (M = 4.96, SD = 1.12, n = 215) regarding organizational identification (t(293) = -2.03, p =.04, d = 0.27). Moreover, a significant positive correlation exists between organizational identification and organizational commitment (r(295) = .81, p < .001).

Value Added: Most prior research regarding organizational identification has focused on top-down processes, stressing the roles managers play in developing organizational identification among employees. Scholars have devoted little attention to what factors drive or impede organizational identification in cross-cultural workplaces. Taking on a bottom-up perspective, this study concentrates on the impact of employees’ social identities, mainly considering expatriate membership, on the extent of their organizational identification.

Recommendations: In order to increase organizational identification, multinational organizations could: 1) facilitate identity synergy by acknowledging the full portfolio of identities employees seek to enact within organizations, and 2) increase peer identification among employees by initiating group activities that facilitate peer-to-peer interactions, create a sense of community and strongly bond individuals to the organization.
Beyond the Subjective Experience of Visual Information in the Modern Media
Authors: Virketienė Austėja , Raišienė Agota Giedrė
Published: November 2020

Objective: According to researchers, visuality appeals to the cognitive aspects of image consumption, hence, the nature of information technologies becomes more important than the content itself. Based on this relevance, the article’s aim is twofold: when seeking to better understand the phenomenon of visual information to analyse the visual communication experience of public relation professionals who apply visual solutions to achieve a specific effect in their work.

Methodology: A quasi-structured in-depth interview of the experts and the method of interpretive phenomenological analysis were used to gather and process the data of the research.

Findings: The paper presents insights into the interaction between receiver’s visual information experience and one’s world view. The research revealed that the visual information influences a person’s perception and interpretation of a message when it serves as supplement for information alongside text in press, advertisement, etc.

Value Added: Based on the research, the visual information experience was defined as an instantaneous action of giving meaning to personal experience and imagination by finding the intersection of narratives between the image and oneself.

Recommendations: A narrow boundary exists between the stimulation and constriction of the observer’s imagination when analysing the visual message. With the help of image communication, a new reality can be created. To reach effective communication, it is recommended to avoid abstract images that allow the observer’s imagination to give it whole other meanings than intended by the sender of the message.
Escherichia coli -induced inflammation changes the expression of acetylcholine receptors (M2R, M3R, and α-7 nAChR) in the pig uterus
Authors: Jana Barbara , Całka Jarosław , Palus Katarzyna , Sikora Małgorzata
Published: November 2020

Introduction

The influence of inflammation on the patterns of muscarinic 2 and 3 receptor subtypes (M2R and M3R), and α-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α-7 nAChR) expression in the porcine uterus was investigated.

Material and Methods

On day three of the oestrous cycle of gilts aged 7–8 months with body weight 90–120 kg, either an E. coli suspension (E. coli group, n = 5) or saline (Sal group, n = 5) was administered into the uterine horns via laparotomy or only laparotomy was performed on control swine (Ctrl group, n = 5). After eight days, and the onset of severe acute endometritis in the E. coli group, the uterine mRNA and protein receptor expression levels were determined using real-time RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively, with receptor localisation by immunofluorescence.

Results

The studied receptors were in the luminal epithelium, glands, blood vessels, and myometrial muscle cells of all gilts. The M2R mRNA level was lower in the inflamed endometrium compared to the Ctrl and Sal groups. Also in this tissue, the expression of M3R mRNA and protein was lower than in the Ctrl and Sal groups. The M3R protein level in the bacterially challenged myometrium was found to be increased compared to unadministered groups. In the endometrium of the E. coli group, the α-7 nAChR protein level was lower than in the Sal group, and in the myometrium it was reduced in relation to both the other groups. P values were ≤ 0.05 in all cases.

Conclusion

Inflammation causes alterations in the M2R, M3R, and α-7 nAChR expression in the pig uterus, suggesting their significance in the course and repercussions of uterine inflammation.
Characteristics of fluid inclusions in the Cenozoic volcanic-hosted Kushk-e-Bahram Manto-type Cu deposit of central Iran
Authors: Jebeli Marjan , Afzal Peyman , Pourkermani Mohsen , Jafarirad Alireza
Published: November 2020

The Kushk-e-Bahram Manto-type Cu deposit is located in central Iran, within Eocene to Oligo–Miocene volcanic strata which occur in the central part of the Uremia-Dokhtar Magmatic Arc (UDMA). Propylitization, silicification, argillization and carbonatization are the main types of alteration to have affected the pyroclastic and volcanic rocks. There are high amounts of oxide minerals, including malachite, azurite, hematite, magnetite and goethite. Three types of primary FIs have been determined in the Kushk-e-Bahram deposit, namely; I: two-phase liquid-rich FIs (L+V), II: mono-phase liquid FIs, III: two-phase vapour-rich FIs which have been identified based on petrographical studies. Based on FI studies of co-existing quartz and calcite, homogenization temperatures (Th) must have been between 67 and 228°C, with an average of 158°C. Moreover, salinity is between 14.0–30.3 wt% NaCl, equivalent to a 19.6% average. Fluid density values vary from 0.8 to 1.1 gr/cm3. Based on FI data and related diagrams, the depth of their trapping was estimated to be <200 m and ore formation occurred at pressures of <50 bars. Consequently, mineralogy, host rock and FIs characteristics in the Kushk-e-Bahram deposit are similar to the Manto-type Cu deposits in Mesozoic-Cenozoic volcanic belts of Iran and South America.
Remote sensing techniques for tracking changes caused by illegal gold mining in Madre de Dios, Peru
Authors: Adamek Katarzyna , Lupa Michał , Zawadzki Mateusz
Published: November 2020

Illegal extraction of gold has grown to be a problem in many countries, causing the degradation of the environment. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate changes in tree cover and surface pollution. The development of a mine site has been observed and analysed with images acquired from Landsat and the Sentinel missions. The results of the study showed changes in the state of the environment, strongly suggesting the possibility of ongoing pyrite weathering processes and the transportation of clay materials down watercourses, which can cause not only the further deterioration of the environment but also slow down the natural regeneration of the forest. In addition, research has found disturbing changes in vegetation, showing a loss of tree cover in the Amazon Rainforest as high as 17%. The validity of using remote sensing methods to observe the development of individual mining sites and their characteristics was confirmed.

The Online Technology Acceptance Model of Generation-Z People in Thailand during COVID-19 Crisis
Authors: Chayomchai Ampol
Published: November 2020

This research aims to study the acceptance of the online technology of Thai people in Generation-Z during the incidence of COVID-19 disease. During this period, Thai people must quarantine themselves at home or work from home to prevent the outbreak of this disease and must comply with the laws of the Thai government. The researchers are interested in the Generation Z population because they are highly interested in technology. Previous literature and research used multiple models of acceptance and use of technology such as the Technology Acceptance Model, Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model. This study adapted various variables from many models in the past, including personal innovativeness, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, trust, and behavioral intention to use technology. The research uses questionnaires as a research tool. 457 usable questionnaires from online data collection were used for data analysis. Descriptive and inferential statistical analysis was performed. The researcher tested the hypothesis by assessment of the Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Model. Research findings found that the behavioral intention to use online technology during COVID-19 disease is predicted by three key factors including performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and trust. Effort expectancy positively influences performance expectancy. In addition, personal innovativeness and the trust of users directly significantly affect performance expectancy and effort expectancy. The researcher suggests that the management level can use the findings in the planning of the organization’s management or marketers can utilize the results for the marketing strategy of the organization.
Bildaktivism i dansarkivet: Betydelsen av Anna Wikströms Akademi för dans
Authors: von Rosen Astrid
Published: November 2020

The article combines Critical Archival Studies theory about agency and activism with an empirical exploration of dance history in Gothenburg, Sweden’s second city. It focuses on Anna Wikström’s Academy for Dance (1930-1965), an education which has not been explored in previous research. A previous member of The Swedish Ballet, Wikström offered her students courses in artistic dance, dance as physical exercise, pedagogy, and social dancing. Thereby, her broad education differed from the narrow, elitist Ballet School at The Stora Teatern. The article accounts for how the collaboration between choreographer and dancer Gun Lund and Astrid von Rosen, scholar at the University of Gothenburg, contributes new knowledge about the local dance culture. It is argued that archival and activist approaches make it possible for more voices, bodies, and functions to take place in dance history. As such, the exploration complements previous postmodern dance historiography (see for example Hammergren 2002; Morris och Nicholas 2017) with a Gothenburg example.

Authors: Sarkar Surojit , Dasgupta Suvam , Meitei K. Kosana , Adhikari Snehunsu , Bandyopadhyay Amit , Dey Swapan Kumar
Published: November 2020

Introduction. Some certain well-established training protocols exist for developing physical and physiological demands of a track cyclist. But still there is controversy on the effectiveness of combined training protocols. The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of 4-week concurrent eccentric cycling and plyometric training on cycling performance of male cyclists at the pre-competitive phase.

Material and methods. A paired study design was applied to 15 young (15.04 ± 1.01 yrs) Indian male track cyclists to assess the effects of proposed concurrent training protocol on body composition and various physical fitness parameters.

Results. Hydration status [TBW (~1%) and ICW (~1%)], glycogen content (~3%), muscular strength (~6-11%), trunk flexibility (~5%), anaerobic power output (~9%), endurance capacity (~5%), acceleration (~7%), leg explosive strength (~7%) and agility (~2%) were found to be improved significantly after the 4-week concurrent training protocol.

Conclusions. The concurrent intervening physical training protocol was intended to increase muscular hypertrophy, peripheral factor gradient, glycolytic and oxidative enzyme capacity with proper neuromuscular coordination which may ultimately help the cyclists to pedal at a faster rate with higher muscular power output even for longer time.
Board of Directors’ Size and Firm Performance: Evidence from Non-Financial French Firms Listed on CAC 40
Authors: Boussenna Hemza
Published: November 2020

The study aims to investigate the relationship between board size and firm’s performance for a sample of non-financial French firms listed on the CAC 40 between 2005 and 2017. We estimated the firm’s performance using two types of metrics, the accounting-based measures (ROA and ROE) and the market-based measures (Tobin Q and MTB). By applying the panel data regressions (fixed-effects and random-effects), the findings show that there is a positive effect of board size on firm performance. In addition, our results show that the optimal number of the board size should be between 13 and 17 members in order to achieve good performance for non-financial French firms.
The COVID-19 Impact on Bucharest Stock Exchange. The First Six Months

Published: November 2020

The first case of coronavirus was registered in Romania on February 26. From this moment, Romania has become “infected”, just like the whole world, and the economy has suffered milder or more severe symptoms, depending on the activity field. Four months have passed since then, during which in Romania, the effects of the health crisis overlapped with a tense political situation, in an unfavorable economic context. Once the COVID-19 hits each country, the economic effects started to become visible in all the world’s financial markets, the financial market being among the first to suffer the impact of the COVID-19 crisis. This paper analyzes how the financial market in Romania was affected by the COVID-19 crisis.
Spatial distribution of four sympatric owl species in Carpathian montane forests
Authors: Šotnár Karol , Obuch Ján , Pačenovský Samuel , Jarčuška Benjamín
Published: November 2020

Knowledge about spatial distribution of owl species is important for inferring species coexistence mechanisms. In the present study, we explore spatial patterns of distribution and habitat selection of four owl species u Eurasian pygmy owl (Glaucidium passerinum), boreal owl (Aegolius funereus), tawny owl (Strix aluco) and Ural owl (Strix uralensis) u ranging in body mass from 50 g to 1300 g, with sympatric occurrence in temperate continuous montane forests in the Veľká Fatra Mts., Western Carpathians, central Slovakia. Locations of hooting owl males were surveyed between 2009–2015 in an area of 317 km2. Spatial point pattern analysis was used for analysis of owl distribution. Random patterns of owls’ spatial arrangement dominate at both intra- and interspecific levels within the studied area. Only intraspecific distribution of pygmy owls and interspecific distribution of Ural owls toward tawny owls exhibited positive associations. This discrepancy with other studies can be explained in terms of pygmy owlsy preference for high-quality nest sites and/or spatial clustering in their prey distribution, and due to aggressive behaviour of dominant Ural owls toward subdominant tawny owls, respectively. Moreover, we found considerable overlap in habitat preferences between owl species, considering stand age, stand height, tree species richness, distance to open area, elevation, slope, percentage of coniferous tree species and position on hillslope, although pygmy owls were not registered in pure broadleaved stands, Ural owls were not registered in pure coniferous stands, and boreal and Ural owls were more common on slope summits and shoulders than tawny and pygmy owls. The observed patterns of spatial arrangement might suggest developed coexistence mechanisms in these owl species; differences between studies may indicate complex interactions between intra- and interspecific associations and habitat quality and quantity, food availability and owl species involved in those interactions on a landscape scale.

Las celdas de combustible microbiano (CCM) es una tecnología emergente para la generación de energía eléctrica a partir de materia biodegradable, teniendo como catalizador a los microorganismos. El objetivo fue evaluar la generación de bioelectricidad y remoción de la materia orgánica en las celdas de combustible microbiano (CCM) a partir del agua residual doméstica (ARD). Se operaron cinco CCM de doble cámara (anaerobia y aerobia) de tipo “H” a escala laboratorio de flujo batch, con volumen de 1 700 ml; las cámaras se conectaron a través de un puente salino (NCL y Agar Agar); se utilizaron electrodos de grafito (ánodo y cátodo) conectados por un cable de cobre como conductor eléctrico a una resistencia externa fija. Para evaluar la remoción de la materia orgánica, se trabajó con ARD de diferentes concentraciones de DQO y para el desempeño eléctrico se trabajó con tres áreas superficiales de electrodo y resistencias externas. Mediante ANOVA factorial y diseño factorial 22 al 95% nivel de confianza, la interacción de resistencia externa y área superficial del electrodo fueron significativas. La CCM2 destacó frente a las demás CCM al trabajar con resistencia de 50 Ω y área superficial de electrodo (AST-grafito) de 151 cm2, generando un voltaje promedio de 380 mV y 82.3% de eficiencia de remoción (DQO). Al trabajar con resistencias menores y mayor área superficial de electrodo en la CCM, se obtuvo una mayor generación de bioelectricidad y remoción de la materia orgánica a partir del agua residual doméstica (ARD), demostrando la viabilidad y sostenibilidad.

Participación ciudadana deliberativa en el urbanismo: “Repensemos el 22@” en Barcelona
Authors: Martín Gómez Albert
Published: November 2020

Este artículo estudia el caso del proceso participativo «Repensemos el 22@» en tanto que política pública inspiradora para la deliberación ciudadana, a partir de la observación participante y entrevistas en Barcelona durante el 2017-2018. La participación ciudadana como complemento de la gobernanza en democracias representativas ha sido objeto de investigación como mecanismo de profundización deliberativa. No existe, en cambio, una extensa implantación en el diseño institucional, y aun menor es su existencia en el planeamiento urbano. En la década de los 90’, la emergencia de las «ciudades globales» restringió la gobernanza urbanística a los intereses de los capitales de inversión, pero en la década de 2010’, a nivel español, con el contexto post-crisis inmobiliaria y el impacto del 15M empiezan a extenderse prácticas participativas. En 2017 el Ajuntament de Barcelona aprobó un nuevo Reglamento de Participación Ciudadana que impulsa la convocatoria de procesos participativos, pero sólo se reconoce el «Repensemos el 22@» como proceso deliberativo sobre planeamiento urbano. En el artículo se identifica este proceso como referencia de relevancia por su cantidad y pluralidad de participación, por su metodología, y por su extensión urbana objeto de debate y de múltiples intereses.

El artículo analiza el problema del llamado “proceso de militarización” en el PRT-ERP. Cuestionando aquellas interpretaciones que presentan los términos ‘violencia’ y ‘política’ como excluyentes y que atribuyen a las ‘desviaciones’ partidarias la causa de la militarización, la autora concluye que el accionar político y militar del PRT-ERP fue la consecuencia inevitable de la conjunción del modelo de guerra popular prolongada y el legado Guevarista.
UN ESCENARIO PARA DOS ACTORES: COMERCIO FORMAL E INFORMAL, LA DOBLE ARTICULACIÓN DE LA JUSTICIA (SANTIAGO DE CHILE, 1796-1797)
Authors: Goicovich Francis
Published: November 2020

El estudio de un pleito judicial entre mercaderes formales y comerciantes informales ocurrido a fines de la Colonia en la Plaza Mayor de Santiago, es una  excusa para adentrarse en temáticas históricas como el enfrentamiento de clases sociales, sus códigos de conducta, y los divergentes conceptos de justicia  sobre los que sustentaban su derecho a la actividad que ejercían en el principal espacio público de la capital del Reino de Chile. El caso presentado se  enmarca en el contexto histórico de las consecuencias que para la elite criolla significaron las Reformas Borbónicas, dejando en evidencia no solo el  inconcluso proyecto de disciplinamiento social llevado adelante por los funcionarios de la casa gobernante, sino también la creciente pérdida de confianza en  la eficiencia del aparato monárquico.

ABSTRACT

The study of a lawsuit that involved formal merchants and informal traders at the late Colony times in the Plaza Mayor of Santiago, is an excuse to delve  into historical topics such as the clash of classes, their codes of conduct, and the divergent concepts of justice on which supported their right to exercising  such activity in the main public space of the Kingdom of Chile. The case presented here is framed in the historical context of the consequences that meant  for Creole elite the Bourbon Reforms, giving account not only of the unfinished project of social regulation carried out by officials of the ruling House, but also of the growing loss of confidence in the efficiency of Monarchy.

La Empresa de Transportes Colectivos del Estado en Santiago y Valparaíso. Política pública e impactos urbanos durante el desarrollismo, 1953 – 1960.
Authors: Castillo Fernández Simón , Vila Muga Waldo
Published: November 2020

El presente artículo indaga en la creación y primeros años de vida de la Empresa de Transportes Colectivos del Estado (ETCE). Creada por el DFL 54 en 1953, se constituyó como una empresa estatal, que reemplazó a la Empresa Nacional de Transportes (ENT), de carácter mixto (público-privado). Su objetivo era proveer de un transporte público sin fines de lucro, y mediante ella el Estado pretendía convertirse en un actor decisivo en la movilización colectiva nacional, hasta entonces en una crisis estructural de funcionamiento. En base a diversas fuentes documentales, el trabajo pretende explicar de qué forma –en medio de un complejo escenario social y económico- el gobierno de Carlos Ibáñez (1952-1958) implementó una de sus más relevantes políticas públicas urbanas del período, así como las consecuencias que esto produjo en las dos principales ciudades chilenas: Santiago y Valparaíso. Esto se efectuará en base al análisis de tres ejes: primero, la creación y administración de la empresa, involucrando aspectos desde el entramado legal que la originó hasta la adquisición de vehículos; segundo, el impacto urbano de la misma a partir de su puesta en marcha en aquellas ciudades, y tercero, la percepción del servicio entregado a través de la visión de actores fuera de la ETCE, como usuarios y parlamentarios.

En el siguiente artículo indagamos en las memorias subterráneas del Chile actual. En este sentido, nos preguntamos cómo los rodriguistas construyen su memoria colectiva mediante las novelas editadas en el periodo postdictatorial. Planteamos que los rodriguistas construyen memoria colectiva del pasado dictatorial de una manera múltiple debido a la interacción generacional visible en las distintas trayectorias biográficas de los militantes, por los diferentes contextos político-culturales en que escriben los relatos y por las diferentes posturas políticas que defienden en el marco del rodriguismo.

PESOS MÁS, PESOS MENOS: EL COSTO DE LA MODERNIDAD EN LA CONSTRUCCIÓN DEL RAMAL FERROVIARIO TALCA–CONSTITUCIÓN.
Authors: Sánchez Andaur Raúl , Simón Ruiz Inmaculada
Published: November 2020

El año 2015 se cumplieron cien años del tren ramal Talca-Constitución, situación que le valió el reconocimiento de Monumento Histórico. Este es el único  ramal en actividad regular en Chile, subvencionado por el Estado, debido al importante rol social que presta como facilitador de la vida a personas y  localidades que, de otra manera, quedarían en la más absoluta inconexión. En este estudio abordamos las declaradas motivaciones que impulsaron su  construcción, las empresas involucradas y los problemas inherentes derivados de su ejecución, con la intención de dilucidar la efectiva motivación de  construir una obra de esta envergadura justo en el momento en que el puerto fluvial perdía su condición de mayor, y estimar la cuantía de la real inversión  que ella demandó al erario nacional.

ABSTRACT

In 2015, the Talca-Constitucion train branch line turned a hundred years, which allowed it to become a well-known Historical National Monument. This is the only train branch line with regular activity in Chile, which is subsidized by the Chilean state due to the important social role that it plays as a facilitator for  locals and rural communities. Otherwise, they will be left out with no transportation. This study aims at describing the reasons for building it, the enterprises involved and the consequent issues. The rationale lays on finding out the reasons for building such a magnificent piece of work since it was  built when the river port had lost its relevance. It also aims at estimating how much money the National Treasury Department invested on its construction.
LA ADMINISTRACIÓN DE JUSTICIA EN LA PROVINCIA ORIENTAL DURANTE LA OCUPACIÓN LUSO-BRASILEÑA (1817-1829)
Authors: Duffau Nicolás
Published: November 2020

El artículo analiza las principales características que presentó la administración de justicia durante el período de la dominación luso brasileña en la Provincia Oriental, que se inició con la ocupación portuguesa a comienzos de 1817 y finalizó en 1829 tras la guerra de las Provincias Unidas contra el Imperio del Brasil y la desocupación de las plazas de Montevideo y Colonia. La historiografía uruguaya ha presentado el período de la ocupación como un tramo cronológico que se caracterizó solo por la ocupación militar. Sin embargo, la documentación del ramo de justicia brinda un nuevo punto de observación para analizar las relaciones entre las autoridades de la ocupación y las elites locales las cuales, contrariamente a lo que ha sostenido la historiografía nacionalista, no se mostraron pasivas ante las fuerzas extranjeras, sino que negociaron con portugueses y brasileños las reformas que consideraron más adecuadas para conformar un nuevo orden político.

ABSTRACT

The subject of this article is the administration of Justice in the period of the luso-brazilian occupation (1817-1829). The uruguayan historiography focuses the analyze of this period on the military occupation, However, the sources origined in the justice field give a new point of view to consider the relations between the ocuppation authorities and local elites, who negociated according their interessts with the luso and brazilian military occupying forces.
EL “ESCÁNDALO DEL ACEITE”, LA DEGRADACIÓN MORAL Y LA GUERRA AL COMUNISMO EN LOS INICIOS DE LA GUERRA FRÍA. CHILE, 1946-1947
Authors: Rojas Flores Jorge
Published: November 2020

En este artículo buscamos comprender la forma en que una denuncia en particular (el llamado “escándalo del aceite”) contra la inmoralidad y la corrupción se transformó en un arma de acción política, en el polarizado ambiente de posguerra en Chile, entre 1946 y 1947, cuando los comunistas participaron del gobierno de Gabriel González. La descalificación moral al adversario no fue el único tema de debate en esta época, pero logró captar la atención de la prensa, al poner en duda los verdaderos objetivos que perseguían los comunistas.

LORENZO BARCALA: ¿ESCLAVO, “HIJO DE LA REVOLUCIÓN” Y “CIVILIZADOR DE MASAS”? UNA DISCUSIÓN DE LAS MITIFICACIONES HISTORIOGRÁFICAS DE LOS AFROARGENTINOS
Authors: Morales Orlando Gabriel , Caballero Luis César
Published: November 2020

Este artículo presenta una crítica de la literatura historiográfica sobre el coronel afromestizo Lorenzo Barcala (Mendoza, 1800-1835). El corpus de análisis incluye ensayos, biografías, semblanzas y algunas menciones significativas de la literatura nacional desde 1845. Se discuten y refutan dos ideas centralesde esos textos: 1) que Barcala fue un esclavo rescatado para servir en las armas de la Patria; y 2) que Barcala cumplió una misión civilizadora hacia el bajo pueblo. Se argumenta que la construcción historiográfica de Barcala favoreció la representación de la Revolución de 1810 como redentora de la esclavitud; y la tesis de la desaparición de los afroargentinos por las guerras de independencia. También, que la concepción de Barcala como un tutor de la plebe se explica por el pensamiento racial de la época en Hispanoamérica; y por un imaginario de nación que postulaba una asimilación biológica y cultural de los negros argentinos.
ALIANZA OBRERA, HUELGA Y NECROPOLÍTICA CAPITALISTA: CONFLICTO ENTRE “LOS INDIOS DE LA COSTA” Y LOS “YANQUIS” DE LA TERMOELÉCTRICA GUGGENHEIM EN TOCOPILLA (1923)
Authors: Galaz-Mandakovic Damir
Published: November 2020

Ante la asimetría relacional entre los patrones de The Chile Exploration Company y los obreros, estos últimos realizaron una articulación de fuerzas con otro grupo laboral perteneciente a la Compañía Salitrera conformando la Gremial de Mar y Tierra. Gracias a este tipo de alianza estratégica, se llevó a cabo una importante huelga por mejores salarios que puso en jaque a la producción de electricidad y por tal, la producción de cobre refinado en Chuquicamata. Se examina en detalle el proceso huelguístico en los finales del año 1923, analizando las acciones y contenidos por parte de los grupos en tensión, como así también la reacción por parte de los capitalistas norteamericanos y agentes del Estado que vieron en las armas la forma de disuasión al conflicto.
LOS DEBATES SOBRE LA CENSURA CINEMATOGRÁFICA EN CHILE, 1959-1973
Authors: Iturriaga Jorge , Donoso Fritz Karen
Published: November 2020

Este artículo analiza el debate en torno a la censura cinematográfica en Chile en la década de 1960. A través de la reconstrucción del discurso político, cultural y estético emitido por diversos actores a través de la prensa escrita, se busca reconocer las principales posturas del debate y su evolución. Se propone que los principales puntos en disputa fueron más bien coyunturales –relativos la idoneidad de los censores o a los criterios de su revisión– que estructurales, toda vez que hasta mediados de la década se mantuvo el consenso tradicional que justificaba la existencia del Consejo de Censura Cinematográfica. Al finalizar la década aparecieron cuestionamientos más frontales en defensa de la libertad de expresión, vinculados a cambios estructurales en los campos de la cultura (habituación al erotismo), la política (ascenso de la izquierda) y la economía (nuevo esquema de distribución).

SATIRE AND THE LIE OF POLITICS: EL MONO(MÉXICO, 1833).
Authors: Gutiérrez Negrón Sergio
Published: November 2020

El Mono fue un semanario mexicano conservador que, en 1833, atacó consistentemente el gobierno liberal de Valentín Gómez Farías. A partir de un modo satírico que tomó de una novela italiana, El Mono criticó los cimientos de la política liberal: la soberanía popular, la opinión pública y la acción política. Sus editores insistieron que la política liberal no respondía a la razón, sino a vicios privados. Por ello, los únicos basamentos estables para la sociedad debían ser la moral, la tradición y la costumbre. Este trabajo muestra cómo esta crítica dependió del uso de la sátira juvenaliana.

ABSTRACT

El Mono was a short-lived conservative satirical newspaper in Mexico that, in 1833, consistently attacked the liberal government of Valentín Gómez Farías. Sustained by a mode of satire that it drew from an Italian 1749 satirical novel, El Mono’s editors undermined the conceptual foundations of liberal politics: popular sovereignty, public opinion and political action. Ultimately, for the editors, liberal politics responded neither to logic nor rational ideas, but to private vices. Thus, they held that the only stable grounds for society was morality, tradition and custom. This paper shows how this critique was developed through the use of Juvenalian satire.
