A Radiological Puzzle: Incidental Genitography Leading To Peritoneal Extravasation Of Contrast Medium, During Voiding Cysto-Urethrography, In A Patient With Urogenital Sinus
Authors: Venkatraman B. , Kumar R.
Published: July 2019

While attempting cysto-urethrography and genitography in a nine-year-old female there was extravasation of the contrast medium to the peritoneal cavity during voiding cysto-urethrography (VCU) due to congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Spillage of peritoneal contrast medium during VCU is extremely rare, even in patients with CAH and a persistent uro-genital sinus. Early fluoroscopic detection is essential, in recognizing the occurrence of spillage and preventing further unnecessary injection of contrast medium into the peritoneal cavity

Scrub typhus masquerading as HELLP syndrome and puerperal sepsis in an asymptomatic malaria patient
Authors: Karim Habib Md. Reazaul , Bhattacharyya Prithwis , Kakati Sonai Datta , Borah Tridip Jyoti , Yunus Md.
Published: July 2019

Scrub typhus and malaria can involve multiple organ systems and are notoriously known for varied presentations. However, clinical malaria or scrub typhus is unusual without fever. On the other hand, altered sensorium with or without fever, dehydration, hemorrhage and hemolysis may lead to low blood pressure. Presence of toxic granules and elevated band forms in such patients can even mimic sepsis. When such a patient is in the peripartum period, it creates a strong clinical dilemma for the physician especially in unbooked obstetric cases. We present such a case where a 26-year-old unbooked female presented on second postpartum day with severe anemia, altered sensorium, difficulty in breathing along with jaundice and gum bleeding without history of fever. Rapid diagnostic test for malaria was negative and no eschar was seen. These parameters suggested a diagnosis of HELLP (Hemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes, Low Platelet) syndrome with or without puerperal sepsis. Subsequently she was diagnosed as having asymptomatic malaria and scrub typhus and responded to the treatment of it. The biochemical changes suggestive of HELLP syndrome also subsided. We present this case to emphasize the fact that mere absence of fever and eschar does not rule out scrub typhus. It should also be considered as a differential diagnosis in patients with symptoms and signs suggesting HELLP syndrome. Asymptomatic malaria can complicate case scenario towards puerperal sepsis by giving false toxic granules and band form in such situations.
Misoprostol use in medical evacuation of spontaneous miscarriage: Pilot drug use evaluation study at the Women's Hospital in Qatar
Authors: ElSalem Samah A. , AlSaad Doua T. , Abdulrouf Palli V. , Ahmed Afif A. , AlHail Moza S.
Published: July 2019

Background: Misoprostol is a synthetic prostaglandin E1 that induces cervical effacement and uterine contractions at all gestational ages, thus facilitating uterine evacuation and pregnancy termination. Successful medical evacuation of spontaneous miscarriage with minimal adverse effects can be performed using misoprostol-only regimen if given as indicated and if the administered dose, frequency of the dosage, and number of total doses are appropriate. Aim: To conduct a drug use evaluation by investigating indications, appropriateness of dosing, and clinical outcome of misoprostol-only regimen when used for medical evacuation of spontaneous miscarriage at the Women's Hospital in Doha, Qatar. Materials and methods: A retrospective descriptive drug use evaluation was conducted on women with spontaneous miscarriage who received misoprostol for medical evacuation during August 2013. The current practice at the Women's Hospital was compared with the recommendation from the World Health Organization (WHO). Patients were stratified into three groups based on weeks of amenorrhea. Results: A total of 107 patients received misoprostol during August 2013, of which 33 (31%) were included in the study. In these patients, the main indication for misoprostol use was missed miscarriage (54.5%). In the group of patients at ≤ 9 weeks of gestation, 80% received an initial dose of 800 μg, 80% received frequency within the WHO recommendation, and the majority had surgical evacuation (80%). In the group of patients at 10–12 weeks of gestation, more than 80% received an initial dose of 800 μg, 6% received frequency within the WHO recommendation, and more than 75% had successful medical evacuation. In the group of patients at 13–22 weeks of gestation, more than 80% received an initial dose of 400 μg, more than 80% received frequency within the WHO recommendation, and 54% had successful medical evacuation. Overall, more than 70% of the patients received ≤ 3 total doses of misoprostol and more than 60% had successful medical evacuation as a clinical outcome. Conclusions: Despite the current practice at the Women's Hospital not always being in accordance with the WHO recommendation, successful medical evacuation was achieved in most patients.

New Reality: Peace and Universal Responsibility, according to the Dalai Lama
Authors: Stril-Rever Sofia
Published: July 2019

Humanity has entered an age of planetary consciousness and war is outdated. However we have not put an end to the cycle of violence, because we fail to understand our interdependencies and the need to focus on our inner humanity. Advocating a secular ethics beyond religion, the Dalai Lama reminds us, in his latest book New reality, that peace is the fruit of compassion. Following Gandhi’s principle : « Become the change you want for the world ! » he issues a Charter of Universal Responsibility, laying out a set of commitments for peace and the protection of all forms of life, human and non human.

Hope for Peace in a Broken World: 1 Chronicles, Exile and Building Walls
Authors: Ji-Sun Kim Grace
Published: July 2019

The world abounds in clash of cultures, religions and beliefs today, as it has for millennia. In such contexts, how do we try to live peaceably with those who have differing opinions on how to live, worship, and believe. Such situations, in addition to the more mundane reasons based on wealth and land, often lead to wars, destroying each other’s religions and building walls to separate one another. We see this in the division of Korea into North and South Koreas and the devastating consequences for a divided country. Today, our American context of immigration is resulting in a clash of cultures between various world religions as well as the difference in relations between religions and state, where, in Jewish and Muslim societies, the two are intertwined, while in American Christian societies, the two are, in principle, separated. This article will examine the Book of 1 Chronicles to see how people in exile experienced sojourning, settlement, return and rebuilding and what its implications are for us are today. This paper will work towards how different religions, cultures and societies can peacefully coexist.

Subverting Hatred: The Challenge of Nonviolence in Religious Traditions, ed. Daniel L. Smith-Christopher
Authors: E. Akinade Akintunde
Published: July 2019

Subverting Hatred is an edited book that brings together different voices on religion and peace from different religious traditions. The book is a lucid appeal to recover the transformative power of religion in the midst of global violence and terror. It is comparative and seeks to provide a cross-cultural understanding of peacebuilding. Beyond destructive rhetoric, the book seeks to provide a new narrative that can engender peace and understanding in the world. It uses a case study approach to uncover the contributions of religion to both inner and global peace. It wrestles with an understanding that religion can contribute to the discourse on subverting hatred and building the capacity for peace.

العالم الأخروي وممارسة الموت

Published: July 2019

عند ما تصبح الحقيقة متباينة الجزئيات، و تصل لتشكل كل واحدة من تلك الجزئيات، حقيقة مستقلة عبر التاريخ . وإحدى الأفكار الهامة التي توصل إليها الفلاسفة، فضلا عن الأنبياء بني اسرائيل والمسيحيين الأوائل، هو أن الحقيقة تتطور بحركة موجه نحو خارج إطارها الأصلي الآني. وبالنسبة للأشخاص، لا يمكن أن يتم هذا التطور إلا عبر السعي للخلود . وقد يكمن الاكتشاف الأكبر للفلاسفة الكلاسيكيين، في ادراك أن الإنسان لا يفنى، بل هو في تطور مستمر نحو الخلود. وتعتبر عملية السعي للخلود جوهر وجود الفيلسوف، والتجربة المحورية لكل من أفلاطون وأرسطو. كذلك كانت التجربة البرزة والرائدة لبولس، وذلك من خلال اكتشاف تطور الحقيقة بحركة تتجاوزالإطار الآني الفاني، للتتطور إلى حالة خلود، نتيجة للمنة الإلهية.

The Problem of Peace in the Ecumenic Age
Authors: Cooper Barry
Published: July 2019

After a brief presentation of the work of the German-born American political philosopher Eric Voegelin, Prof. Barry Cooper focuses on what Voegelin calls the Ecumenic Age, the period from the rise of the Persian around the eighth century BC to the fall of the Roman Empire around the eighth century AD. From this period, we can learn that any intramundane apocalyptic efforts to unify politically the ecumene (or inhabited world) and thus to bring an end to history are doomed to fail. Yet this dream remains the driving force behind many contemporary radical ideologies.

Published: July 2019

Este artículo presenta los resultados del estudio realizado entre los años 2015 y 2016 sobre la confiabilidad del Test de Lectura y Escritura en Español (LEE), batería argentino-española para analizar su aplicabilidad en estudiantes costarricenses. Su enfoque es instrumental con metodología cuantitativa, donde el cálculo de confiabilidad y la consistencia interna del test se determinaron con el estadístico Alfa de Cronbach. El instrumento se aplicó en una muestra de 285 estudiantes de la región educativa de Cartago, zona donde se realizó la validez de contenido del mismo test en un estudio realizado entre los años 2013 y 2014 (Carpio y Méndez, 2016). Los resultados globales muestran que de esta batería conformada por siete subpruebas, solo se pueden utilizar, con algunas modificaciones, las subpruebas de Lectura de palabras, Lectura de pseudopalabras, Escritura de palabras y Escritura de pseudopalabras. Por esta razón, se recomienda elaborar una prueba específica para Costa Rica.
Evolución clínica del estadio cero de epoc en pacientes tabaquistas con intervenciones médicas no farmacológicas
Authors: Salinas Ruth , Herrera Liliam
Published: July 2019

Fumar cigarrillos de manera crónica puede causar síntomas respiratorios, además, de patrones obstructivos.No obstante, la aplicación de medidas no farmacológicas o rehabilitación pulmonar, a través de ejercicios de respiración y actividad física, pueden aplicarse de manera curativa o preventiva. El objetivo fue evaluar la evolución clínica del estadio cero de EPOC en pacientes tabaquistas con intervenciones no farmacológicas. Se realizó un ensayo clínico no controlado, con una muestra de 18 participantes, de una población de 43. Se evaluó sintomatología respiratoria; todo esto antes y después de aplicar medidas no farmacológicas, las cuales tuvieron una duración de 4 meses.Se identificaron síntomas respiratorios como tos, expectoración, disnea y sibilancias, evaluando también la cantidad de síntomas, se realizó la prueba McNemar para la comprobación de la hipótesis y verificar si el estadío cero de EPOC disminuye después de realizar intervenciones no farmacológicas, dicha prueba no fue significativa, lo que indicó que la proporción de pacientes tabaquistas en estadio cero de EPOC no disminuyó significativamente después de aplicar las intervenciones; sin embargo, disminuyó significativamente la cantidad de síntomas, lo cual se comprobó con la prueba de los signos, en la que el p-valor fue inferior a 0.05 (0.028). CONCLUSION: Con la aplicación de medidas no farmacológicas los pacientes tabaquistas mejoran muchos síntomas; sin embargo, no disminuye la cantidad de pacientes en estadio cero de EPOC, por lo que se recomienda que las intervenciones se prolonguen para verificar si los cambios en el estadío cero son significativos.

Innovations in the Content of Professional Training of Interpreters and Translators in Countries of Europe, the USA and Ukraine: Comparative Analysis
Authors: Cherkashchenko Olesia M. , Vysotska Tetiana M. , Korotkova Svitlana V. , Savina Yuliia O. , Khurtak Iryna V.
Published: July 2019

The article deals with the analysis of innovations in the content of professional training of interpreters / translators at universities of Europe, the USA and Ukraine. It has been established that at European and American universities the innovation data involves directing professional education of translators and interpreters towards studying CAT-systems within the context of traditional disciplines, specialized disciplines, extracurricular courses, trainings and in the process of students’ translation/interpretation traineeship and study placement. Based on the comparative analysis of the curricula for specialists’ training in translation/interpretation in European countries, the USA and Ukraine, the conclusion is drawn that in higher education of Ukraine theoretical training traditionally prevails over practical field experience, general classroom hours are not sufficient for students, while Ukrainian universities’ curricula lack disciplines aimed at the formation of technological (information, computer) expertise of prospective interpreters and translators. The authors of the article recommend using the experience of western universities on implementing innovations within the content of professional training of interpreters and  translators at Ukrainian universities, namely: a) increasing the number of classroom activity hours in practical training of interpretation/translation students by means of reducing extracurricular hours; b) changing the ratio of disciplines of theoretical and practical training of future interpreters and translators in favour of the latter by decreasing the number of theoretical subjects; c) including disciplines aimed at the formation of prospective experts’ information competency into the curricula; d) providing both short-term and long-term traineeship in interpreter/translator training programs, preferably at international organizations (enterprises) operating in Ukraine or at foreign companies abroad; e) providing specialization of professional training of interpreters and translators (technical translation, legal translation, economic translation, medical translation, literary translation, etc.).
Qualification of unilateral cochlear implant recipients for a second device
Authors: Drela Maria , Haber Karolina , Wrukowska Iwona , Puricelli Michael , Sinkiewicz Anna , Bruś Jerzy , Tyra Justyna , Mierzwiński Józef
Published: July 2019

Introduction: Although it is recommended to perform cochlear implantation in both ears at the same time for management of profound hearing loss in children, many centers prefer to perform sequential implantation. There are many reasons as to why a simultaneous bilateral implantation is not commonly accepted and performed. The major risk is the possibility of bilateral vestibular organ impairment. However, it is beyond doubt that children who received the first implant should be given a chance for binaural hearing and associated benefits. In the literature, there are no homogenous criteria for bilateral implantation, and it is hard to find uniform and convincing algorithms for second cochlear implantation. The aim of this study is an attempt to identify a safe way of qualifying for second cochlear implantation in children. Material and methods: Forty children with one cochlear implant were qualified for the second implantation. During qualification, the following were taken into account: time of the first implantation, audiometry results, use of the hearing aid in the ear without an implant and benefit of the device, speech and hearing development, and vestibular organ function. R esults: Fifteen out of forty children (38%) were qualified for the second implantation. In 35% of children, the decision was delayed with possible second implantation in the future. Eleven children (27%) were disqualified from the second surgery. Discussion: During evaluation according to the protocol presented in our study, 38% of children with a single cochlear implant were qualified for the second implantation with a chance for an optimal development and effective use of the second cochlear implant. We are convinced that sequential implantation with a short interval between surgeries and with an examination of the vestibular organ, hearing and speech development as well as an assessment of potential benefits from the second implant (bimodal stimulation) before the second implantation is the safest and most beneficial solution for children with severe hearing loss.
Management of Mycotoxins in Spices
Authors: Iha Maria H. , Trucksess Mary W.
Published: July 2019

Spices are very important for cuisines around the world as well as for health enhancement. The Egyptians, Chinese, and Indians have used spices in medicinal remedies and procedures starting in around 2000 BC. Through the centuries, spices have found use as food ingredients to modify
the aroma and taste of the final products; however, some spices are suitable substrates for mold growth and mycotoxin development, which could be detrimental to human and animal health. This report covers regulatory control of mycotoxins in food and spices by means of monitoring and regulatory
limits, sampling and analysis, management, and prevention of mycotoxins from plant growth (preharvest) through harvest and postharvest as well as decontamination for mycotoxins when necessary. There is no one single-best strategy that can solve mycotoxin contamination problems, but a well-designed
and integrated plan of all these strategies could result in a substantial reduction of mycotoxins in spices to regulation safety levels.
Das harte Problem bei der Veränderung einer Organisationskultur und warum wir es nicht anschauen möchten
Authors: Vogd Werner
Published: July 2019

Wer Organisationskultur auf einer tiefen Ebene verändern will, muss verstehen, wie sie entsteht. Der Beitrag lenkt die Aufmerksamkeit auf die Tatsache, dass es neben der akzeptablen und bewusst zugänglichen Dimension der Kultur eine Tiefendimension gibt, von der Menschen normalerweise nichts wissen möchten, da sie mit Angst und Gewaltmomenten durchsetzt ist. In Auseinandersetzung mit René Girards Theorie der mimetischen Rivalität wird gezeigt, wie das Dialogische hier wirksam werden könnte und woran es oftmals scheitert.
Kulturtransformation gestalten. Wie ein nachhaltiger Musterwechsel befeuert werden kann. Ein Erfahrungsbericht
Authors: Gebauer Annette
Published: July 2019

Viele Unternehmen verschreiben sich heute einen Kulturwandel - eine lernfähige, agile, resiliente Kultur verspricht die notwendige Fitness für die digitale, »nächste« Gesellschaft. Viele Kulturentwicklungsprozesse scheitern aber oder mutieren zu kurzlebigen Initiativen mit wenig nachhaltigen Effekten. Doch es gibt auch andere, ermutigende Beispiele. So entschied sich eine Abteilung in einem Chemieunternehmen für einen Veränderungsprozess zur Entwicklung einer in sich lernfähigen Sicherheitskultur. Ziel des Prozesses war es, sicherheitskritische Ereignisse wie meldepflichtige Unfälle oder Produktaustritte deutlich zu reduzieren. Doch wie die meisten Kulturtransformationen erwies sich auch dieser Prozess zunächst als langwieriges und mit vielen Ambivalenzen verbundenes Unterfangen, das keine schnellen Ergebnisse hervorbrachte. So konnten im ersten Jahr lediglich erste, kleine Veränderungen auf der Verhaltensebene beobachtet werden. Doch das Führungsteam hielt am Prozess fest. Sechs Monate später folgte schließlich auch eine Verbesserung der quantitativ messbaren Sicherheitskennzahlen. Gemeinsam mit dem Führungsteam haben wir analysiert, was die Wirksamkeit des Prozesses begünstigt hat. Im folgenden Beitrag erläutere ich einige dieser Aspekte.
Berichterstattung über Social-Media-Inhalte aus urheber- und persönlichkeitsrechtlicher Sicht
Authors: Stang Felix Laurin
Published: July 2019

Der Beitrag widmet sich der Frage, welche urheberrechtlichen und persönlichkeitsrechtlichen Grenzen Medien bei der Berichterstattung über Social-Media-Inhalte einzuhalten haben. Anhand des beim BGH anhängigen Verfahrens um die als „Pranger der Schande“ bekannt gewordene Berichterstattung der BILD-Zeitung werden die unterschiedlichen Regelungsmechanismen des Urheberrechts und des Persönlichkeitsrechts gegenübergestellt und bewertet. Dabei wird festgestellt, dass sich das Urheberrecht durch die zunehmende Flexibilisierung in der Rechtsprechung des EuGH, des BVerfG und des BGH, etwa durch die Subjektivierung des Begriffs der öffentlichen Wiedergabe oder durch Interessenabwägungen im Rahmen der Schrankenbestimmungen, dem als offenes Rahmenrecht ausgestalteten Persönlichkeitsrecht zunehmend annähert.
Rechtsphilosophische Probleme des Sozialstaats
Authors: Kersting Wolfgang
Published: July 2019

Eine normative Sozialstaatsbegründung kann nur gelingen, wenn der Sozialstaat sich auf der Grundlage unserer menschenrechtlichen Überzeugungen als rechtlich unabdingbar erweist und der vage Orientierungsbegriff der sozialen Gerechtigkeit Kontur gewinnt.
Vor diesem Hintergrund vergleicht der Verfasser vier Begründungsmodelle, in denen soziale Gerechtigkeit und das ihr zuarbeitende Sozialstaatsprinzip ausgelegt wird als Daseinsfürsorge, als Freiheitsfürsorge, als Gleichheitsfürsorge und schließlich als Demokratiefürsorge, das heißt: Versorgung Selbstversorgungsunfähiger auf der Grundlage zivilgesellschaftlicher Solidarität, zur Sicherstellung gleicher politischer Autonomie und gleichberechtigter Selbstbehauptung aller im öffentlichen Raum. Die sich solcherart der Demokratiefürsorge verschreibende solidarische Versorgungsformation kann freilich nicht mehr als Sozialstaatsmodell bezeichnet werden: sie ist dezidiert antietatistisch und antibürokratisch und möchte das duale Schema von Markt und Staat durch das Dazwischentreten einer selbstmächtigen, sich selbst organisierenden Zivilgesellschaft aufbrechen.
Im Ergebnis zeigt sich, daß es gute Gründe gibt, sich für eine freiheitsrechtliche Sozialstaatskonzeption zu entscheiden.
Die Bedeutung der Rechtsphilosophie für das Strafrecht
Authors: Kühl Kristian
Published: July 2019

Die Bedeutung der Rechtsphilosophie ist durch die Anwendung der Radbruchschen Formel aktuell und praktisch geworden. Die Beziehungen zwischen der Strafrechtswissenschaft und der Rechtsphilosophie sind seit langem sehr intensiv, was sich etwa an den von Strafrechtlern verfaßten Lehrbüchern der Rechtsphilosophie zeigt. Gegenstand der rechtsphilosophisch arbeitenden Strafrechtswissenschaftler ist zum einen die Rechtfertigung der Strafe, die sog. »Strafphilosophie«. Zum anderen geht es um die Legitimierung freiheitseingreifender Strafgesetze zum Schutze der Freiheit, sog. »Strafrechtsphilosophie«. Schließlich wird auch in der Strafrechtsdogmatik rechtsphilosophisch argumentiert, z.B. wenn es um Freiheit und Solidarität bei der Begründung von Hilfs- und Duldungspflichten geht (§§ 323c, 34 StGB).
Recht und Moral im Umweltschutz

Published: July 2019

Für das Verhältnis von Recht und Moral hat man sich seit dem Ende des ersten Weltkriegs vor allem unter dem Gesichtspunkt des Kollisionsfalles – des praktisch und begrifflich richtigen Umgangs mit unmoralischem Recht – interessiert.
In dieser Untersuchung geht es stattdessen um die Frage, was hinsichtlich des Umweltschutzes Sache der Moral und was Sache des Rechts ist, sowie um inadäquate Antworten auf diese Frage in der Umweltphilosophie und der aktuellen umweltpolitischen Diskussion über Deregulierung und Eigenverantwortung im Umweltschutz.
Die Verfasserin ist Professorin für Öffentliches Recht an der Universität Bielefeld, Verfasserin zahlreicher Arbeiten unter anderem zum Umweltrecht und zur Rechtsphilosophie, und war als Leiterin einer Umweltbehörde mehrere Jahre auch praktisch im Umweltschutz tätig.

Should Undocumented Immigrants Have Access to Public Benefits?
Authors: Choe-Smith Chong ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: July 2019

Undocumented immigrants are ineligible for most federally funded public benefits programs with few exceptions such as emergency medical assistance and nutrition assistance for women and children. This paper defends the view that a liberal society should provide greater access to undocumented immigrants to public benefits programs and responds to an important economic objection that a state should be able to prioritize the needs of its own members who contribute to these programs. This paper specifically addresses empirical and moral versions of this objection. It also distinguishes between two kinds of public benefits. Certain public benefits, such as social security, may reflect an agreed-upon distribution of public goods, to which people are entitled based on their membership or contribution. Other public benefits, such as nutrition assistance, are set aside primarily to help people based on their need. In the latter case, it is not membership or contribution, but need or which need is greater, that supplies justification for the distribution of these benefits even when resources are limited.

Published: July 2019

Las relaciones morfométricas permiten describir y caracterizar las dimensiones de los árboles, rodales sin el conocimiento previo de la edad, tienen utilidad en el manejo silvicultural, monitoreos forestales y productividad, especialmente cuando se tiene como premisa hacer un uso sustentable de los bosques. Los objetivos del presente trabajo fueron determinar índices morfométricos según su posición social (PS), correlacionarlos, y crear modelos de predicción de esos índices, ya que las dimensiones y arquitectura de la copa pueden variar en virtud PS. La recolección de datos se realizó en tres provincias de la Región Chaqueña, Argentina. En 100 individuos con DAP> 15 cm, se midieron: altura total (Ht), diámetro a la altura del pecho (DAP), longitud de copa (Hc), radios copa (Rc), a través de los cuales se calcularon: diámetro de copa (Dc), volumen de copa (Vc), grado de esbeltez (E), índice de amplitud (Ia), sección de copa (Gc), índice saliente (Is), porcentaje de copa (%C) y forma de copa (Fc). Las variables fueron sometidas al análisis de correlación de Pearson. Los resultados indican que existen correlaciones positivas entre %C, Ht, Hc, Dc y el DAP, mientras que E e Is mostraron correlaciones negativas con el DAP. Las relaciones morfométricas de Prosopis alba pueden estimarse con precisión mediante modelos de regresión. Los resultados apuntan que los rasgos morfométricos pueden ser descriptos mediante un modelo único, con la utilización de variables de clasificación dummy que diferencian las posiciones sociológicas en individuos de Prosopis alba.
Photosynthetic responses of Eucalyptus seedlings submitted to chemical and mechanical stimulus
Authors: Lima Paulo Ricardo , Malavasi Ubirajara Contro , Battistus Andre Gustavo , Dranski João Alexandre Lopes , Malavasi Marlene de Matos
Published: July 2019

This work aimed to investigate the photosynthetic responses of Eucalyptus urophylla x Eucalyptus grandis hybrids 1528 submitted to the application of jasmonic acid (JA) and stem bending. The experiment was conducted in a shade house using a completely randomized design with five replicates of 20 seedlings, with the following treatments: T1: control, T2: 8.0 μmol of JA and T3: 40 stem bending. The net assimilation rate of CO2 (A), stomatal conductance (gs), internal CO2 concentration (Ci), leaf transpiration rate (E), water use efficiency (WUE), intrinsic efficiency of use of Water (iWUE) and carboxylation efficiency (Fc) were measured with an IRGA. The dose of JA applied to the seedlings was insufficient to alter the photosynthetic responses in relation to the control treatment. Mechanical stimuli induced by stem bending in eucalyptus hybrid 1528 seedlings promoted an increase in the maximum photosynthetic capacity and maximum assimilation of CO2, but the seedlings presented a reduction in the efficiency of the water use, that is, lower photosynthetic efficiency when compared to the seedlings submitted to other treatments. Seedlings of eucalyptus hybrid 1528 submitted to mechanical stimuli and jasmonic acid show greater respiration under low flow levels of photosynthetically active photons.

Published: July 2019

O plantio de pinus em áreas de campo natural (NG) pode alterar as formas e estoques de carbono orgânico (CO) do solo. Visando quantificar essas alterações, foram determinados os teores e estoques de CO total (TOC) e das frações particulada (POC) e associadas aos minerais (CAM) em cinco camadas, entre 0,0 e 0,4 m de profundidade, do solo sob usos com NG e plantios de pinus aos cinco (P5), 16 (P16) e 21 (P21) anos. O estudo foi realizado em áreas de Cambissolo Húmico na região do planalto sul de Santa Catarina. O teor de TOC, nas diferentes camadas e usos, variou entre 15 e 45 g kg-1 e seu estoque, na soma das camadas, entre 86 e 144 Mg ha-1. O teor de POC variou entre 2 a 23 g kg-1 e seu estoque, entre 7,5 e 22 Mg ha-1, enquanto o teor de CAM variou entre 12 e 24 g kg-1 e seu estoque, entre 78 e 122 Mg ha-1. Em geral, os teores e estoques de TOC e das frações CAM e POC do solo aumentam com a idade dos plantios de pinus até 21 anos. Os teores de TOC e POC e o estoque dessa fração, em geral diminuem com a profundidade do solo sob NG e P5 e P21, mas o teor de CAM e os estoques dessa fração e do TOC geralmente não variam entre as camadas até 0,40 m de profundidade.

Published: July 2019

O artigo apresenta resultados de uma pesquisa cujo objetivo consistiu em analisar como opera o dispositivo da tecnocientificidade na produção de subjetividades de alunos adultos, em processo de alfabetização. O referencial teórico utilizado situa-se nas formulações de Michel Foucault sobre noções tais como as de dispositivo e subjetivação. O material de pesquisa foi organizado em duas instâncias: a) livros didáticos endereçados à Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA) e b) narrativas geradas em um trabalho pedagógico com uma classe de alfabetização e pós-alfabetização da EJA sobre o uso de tecnologias na contemporaneidade. A análise do material de pesquisa possibilitou inferir que os estudantes desejam se apropriar dos conhecimentos relativos à tecnologia para melhor realizar suas atividades laborais e educacionais, assim como para facilitar a comunicação entre familiares e amigos. Também se posicionam como retardatários em relação à aquisição desses conhecimentos, referenciando os jovens como aqueles que dominam e conseguem lidar com a tecnologia. Isso nos leva a pensar que entre as diferentes estratégicas que conformam o dispositivo da tecnocientificidade está a captura do interesse dos sujeitos escolares para assuntos de ordem tecnocientífica, conduzindo suas condutas e criando o desejo de se sentirem incluídos em nosso mundo maquinocêntrico.

Authors: Silva Josué Cândido da
Published: July 2019

Neste relato, pretendemos apresentar um balanço do nosso primeiro concurso de redações filosóficas desenvolvido em 2012. Trata-se de uma proposta que envolveu cinco escolas da região de Ilhéus e Itabuna, no sul da Bahia, e mais de mil alunos em sua fase inicial. Nosso objetivo era estimular os alunos do Ensino Médio a desenvolverem suas habilidades de argumentação escrita através da discussão de problemas filosóficos. Foram propostos cinco temas, de acordo com o que estava sendo trabalhado em cada série, a serem escolhidos pelos alunos. Em uma primeira fase, participaram todos os alunos no âmbito de abrangência do PIBID de Filosofia da UESC. Destes, foram selecionados os melhores trabalhos para uma segunda fase em que tiveram a orientação dos bolsistas do PIBID com indicações de leitura e de como melhorar as ideias apresentadas no texto. Em uma terceira fase, foram selecionados os seis alunos vencedores do concurso. Em nosso relato, faremos uma avaliação de como o concurso contribuiu na melhoria da argumentação escrita dos alunos, além de outros resultados positivos decorrentes do mesmo. Apresentaremos também as principais dificuldades no intuito de servir como um parâmetro para aplicação ou modificação da proposta por PIBIDs de Filosofia de outras universidades.

Published: July 2019

Trata-se de uma resenha comentada do livro Sofia, a menina que gosta de filosofar, de autoria de André Wagner Rodrigues, publicado em São Paulo pela Editora Uirapuru em 2017. No livro, a protagonista Sofia tem treze anos, estuda em uma escola privada e vive abespinhada com as coisas da vida, sempre quer saber mais sobre tudo, pois respostas breves e questionáveis nunca a satisfazem. Com muito diálogo e respeito, a menina busca dirimir suas dúvidas sobre os mais variados assuntos, e abordando todos que aparecem a sua frente, nunca se cansa de fazer mais e mais perguntas, e se lhe derem uma resposta barata já sabe que vai querer continuar investigando, seu caráter lembra um certo barbudo calvo que tagarelava pelas ruas da antiga Atenas. A obra segue critérios condizentes ao trato de um bom livro didático, possui uma história com elementos organizados de forma coerente; abrange uma ampla diversidade de opiniões e perspectivas teóricas; estimula ao questionamento; proporciona uma gama de temas com possibilidade de variadas problematizações; tem um tratamento de linguagem claro; e se situa num contexto extremamente atual.
É proibido filosofar no Ensino Médio
Authors: Frau Erica Cristina
Published: July 2019

: O ensino de filosofia no nível médio pode se dar por diferentes caminhos. O presente artigo tem como objetivo fazer inferências sobre a impossibilidade do filosofar na sala de aula, considerando que existe uma filosofia maior que proíbe o seu desenvolvimento. Segundo Deleuze e Guattari,  filosofar é a arte de criar conceitos, sendo assim, para que o professor de filosofia consiga promover este devir é necessário resistir as normas e regras estabelecidas pelos fluxos das avaliações finais do ensino médio. Esta resistência se dá por meio de um caminho alternativo, onde o filosofar pode impossibilitar o cumprimento das metas que evidenciam as aprendizagens dos conteúdos que são cobrados nos exames vestibular e do Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio - ENEM.  Essa dicotomia pode evidenciar que é proibido filosofar no ensino médio, pois, mesmo com a  permanência da disciplina na grade curricular garantida pela lei, ao fomentar o filosofar, o professor pode ficar sem tempo para contemplar toda lista de conteúdos, competências e habilidades previstas nos documento oficiais federais e estaduais.
Reflexões sobre a Filosofia como componente curricular da educação básica
Authors: Santos Maria Clara Pereira
Published: July 2019

Este artigo se propõe refletir sobre a filosofia na educação escolar, sua metodologia se baseando na Teórica Crítica de Theodor Adorno e M. Horkheimer, que é usada na construção de uma tecedura expositiva em que os endereços históricos do ensino da filosofia são trazidos como pontos de apoio para fazer emergir as fissuras de contradição envolvendo a relação entre o conhecimento de filosofia e o espaço dado à mesma na educação formal brasileira. Seu objetivo é problematizar o horizonte desse ensino de filosofia fazendo uso de sua historicidade no exercício do pensar elucidativo. Por isso, os pontos de contradição trazidos pela análise histórica endereçadora da relação tempo-espaço e modelação dos elementos identificativos do ensino da filosofia nos servem como fios condutores que tornam razoável a visibilização desse horizonte em suas lacunas potenciais. A conclusão desse artigo, coerente com seu ponto de apoio metodológico, não preconiza uma fórmula de salvação, pelo contrário, ela pressupõe tornar audível uma voz encarnada de várias vozes sobre o tema ensino da filosofia como componente curricular, acreditando que o diálogo aberto já faz parte do próprio exercício filosófico de pensar a si mesmo como conteúdo escolar necessário para um projeto coletivo de sociedade democrática.
El abastecimiento militar de cáñamo para el imperio español (1665-1808): globalización, estado y empresarios en el largo Siglo XVIII = Providing Hemp for Military Purpose for the Spanish Empire (1665-1808): Globalization, State and Entrepreneurs in the Long Eighteenth Century
Authors: Díaz-Ordóñez Manuel
Published: July 2019

El cáñamo se convirtió en un insumo estratégico de primer orden para los imperios marítimos durante la Edad Moderna, porque con él se producía cuerda mecha, y jarcia y velas para el aparejo de los veleros, por lo que su producción agraria, su manufactura y el control de su distribución se situó en el eje central de interés en las políticas imperiales de la época. Para España, uno de los ejes fundamentales de estas políticas pasó por la posibilidad de emplear el suelo disponible en sus posesiones americanas para extender las cosechas, evitando así la excesiva dependencia del cáñamo ruso que se compraba en el Báltico. El limitado éxito español en esta migración a América favoreció que algunos empresarios se convirtieran en intermediarios de las compras en Rusia. El cáñamo, pues, será un producto globalizado por las necesidades estratégicas de los imperios y se convertirá en una auténtica cadena básica de producto.AbstarctHemp became a first order strategic commodity for the maritime Empires during the modern age, because with it was produced fuse rope, and cordage and sails for rigging of sailboats, so their agricultural production, its manufacturing and its distribution control stood in the focus at the imperial policies of the time. For Spain, one of the cornerstones of these policies passed by the possibility to the using of the available grounds in its American possessions to extend the harvests, thus avoiding excessive reliance on Russian hemp that was bought in the Baltic. The limited Spanish success on its migration to America favored for some entrepreneurs become middlemen for the purchases in Russia. Hemp, then, will be a globalized product by the strategic needs of the Empires and that it will constitute a true commodity chain.
Fidelidad, fueros y negociación Las Cortes de Sangüesa en la defensa de la Corona de Aragón (1705) = Fidelidad, fueros y negociación.

En el verano de 1705, España se encontraba al borde de una guerra civil. La Monarquía Hispánica, en previsión a un desembarco Aliado en Cataluña, se vio obligada a desviar recursos al frente mediterráneo. Felipe V necesitaba tropas, y convocó Cortes en Navarra. Navarra era un territorio leal, pero que mantenía sus propias instituciones políticas –las Cortes y la Diputación–, y su propio sistema fiscal y jurídico –el Fuero General–. Estas particularidades habían mantenido a Navarra al margen de la costosa política exterior de los Habsburgo. Ahora, sin embargo, la situación había cambiado, y la Monarquía tenía que negociar con las Cortes un servicio, en forma de regimientos. AbstractIn the summer of 1705, Spain was about to face civil war. In the eventuality of an Allied landing in Catalonia, the Crown was forced to divert resources to the Mediterranean front. Philip V needed troops, and he called the three estates of Navarre for Cortes. Navarre was a loyal territory, but it had its own political institutions –the Cortes and its permanent commission, the Diputación– and its own tax and juridical system –the Fuero General–. These particularities kept Navarre out of the gruelling Habsburg foreign policy. However, the situation was now different, and the Monarchy had to negotiate with the Cortes a servicio, in the form of regiments.
