Las metáforas de personificación en Qla Chuyma, canciones tradicionales aymaras
Authors: Mamani Mamani Alan Ever
Published: June 2020

El presente artículo está circunscrito en la corriente de la lingüística cognitiva, el cual tiene como propósito categorizar y analizar las metáforas de personificación en las canciones tradicionales aymaras. Los datos han sido recogidos en el cancionero Qala chuyma, canciones tradicionales aymaras. Al analizar las metáforas, se han encontrado tres tipos de categorizaciones: los animales como seres animados, los objetos como seres animados, y las costumbres como seres animados. Se concluye que las diferentes metáforas expresadas en los elementos andinos presentan y adquieren cualidades y
actitudes humanas. Ellos conviven con el hombre aimara en su labor cotidiana, por ello,
son considerados en el mundo andino como seres animados.
Etnicidad y género en Sab (1841) de Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda
Authors: Zevallos Jhonny
Published: June 2020

Las novelas hispanoamericanas del siglo XIX tienen como eje la representación de los caracteres nacionales afines a la interpretación de los lectores europeos. Por ello, responden a modelos patriarcales eurocéntricos que excluyen los biotipos ajenos a estos. En ese sentido, la novela Sab, de la cubana Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda, publicada
en años en los que la isla era uno de los rezagos del imperio español, incorpora una visión exótica de los personajes no europeos considerándolos como agentes de una eminente modernización y recurre a un esclavo como prototipo de la subalternidad frente a los civilizados amos blancos. Por ello, nos proponemos demostrar cómo el relato mantiene
los cánones patriarcales y patrimoniales de la nación cubana al legitimar la hegemonía blanca masculina para favorecer la subalternidad afrodescendiente.
La metáfora conceptual en la poesía quechua cusqueña: Un análisis semántico cognitivo de Nunaypa Rurun

Published: June 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic came at a time when a consensus on the need for broad-based reform had finally emerged, but macroeconomic conditions continued to be challenging in Liberia. With the impact of COVID-19, growth is now projected at -2.5 percent for 2020, 3 percentage points below the pre-COVID baseline, largely due to lockdowns at home and abroad. The impact will hit the poorest as there is little or no social safety net and the food security of those relying on uncertain daily income is a pressing concern. The full scale of the COVID spread is unknown, but the health care system is underdeveloped and likely to be overwhelmed should cases rise.

This paper presents an Ex-Post Evaluation (EPE) of the 2015 Extended Fund Facility (EFF) arrangement with Ukraine. The four-year EFF—amounting to
SDR 12.348 billion (900 percent of quota)—was approved in March 2015, after it had become clear that the conflict in the East had pushed Ukraine’s balance of payments and adjustment needs beyond what could be addressed under the 2014 Stand-By Agreement (SBA). The new ambitious program supported by the 2015 EFF was seen by many as a unique opportunity for Ukraine to fundamentally reform its economy.
Lignin's ability to nucleate ice via immersion freezing and its stability towards physicochemical treatments and atmospheric processing
Authors: Bogler Sophie , Borduas-Dedekind Nadine
Published: June 2020

Abstract. Aerosol–cloud interactions dominate the uncertainties in current predictions of the atmosphere's radiative balance. Specifically, the ice phase remains difficult to predict in mixed-phase clouds, where liquid water and ice coexist. The formation of ice in these clouds originates from heterogeneous ice nucleation processes, of which immersion freezing is a dominant pathway. Among atmospheric surfaces capable of templating ice, mineral dust, biological material, and more recently organic matter are known to initiate freezing. To further our understanding of the role of organic matter in ice nucleation, we chose to investigate the ice nucleation (IN) ability of a specific sub-component of atmospheric organic matter, the biopolymer lignin. Ice nucleation experiments were conducted in our home-built Freezing Ice Nuclei Counter (FINC) to measure freezing temperatures in the immersion freezing mode. We find that lignin acts as an ice active macromolecule at temperatures relevant for mixed-phase cloud processes (e.g. 50 % activated fraction up to −18.8 °C at 200 mg C L−1). Within a dilution series of lignin solutions, we observed a non-linear effect in freezing temperatures; the number of IN sites per mg carbon increased with decreasing lignin concentration. We attribute this change to a concentration-dependant aggregation of lignin in solution. We further investigated the effect of physicochemical treatments on lignin's IN activity, including experiments with sonication, heating and reaction with hydrogen peroxide. Indeed, harsh conditions such as heating to 260 °C and addition of 1 : 750 g of lignin to mL of hydrogen peroxide were needed to decrease lignin's IN activity to the instrument's background level. Next, photochemistry and ozonation experiments were conducted to test the effect of atmospheric processing on lignin's IN activity. We showed that this activity was not susceptible to changes under atmospherically relevant conditions, despite chemical changes observed by UV/Vis absorbance. Our results present lignin as a recalcitrant IN active subcomponent of organic matter within for example biomass burning aerosols and brown carbon, and contribute to the understanding of how soluble organic material in the atmosphere can nucleate ice.
Survey on early career travel support shows geographic, career stage, and indigenous status inequality in access to polar science events
Authors: Bradley Alice , Höfer Juan , Savaglia Valentina , Eayrs Clare
Published: June 2020

Abstract. Scientific meetings, conferences, field schools and workshops provide essential networking and training opportunities for early career researchers, but in highly international fields like polar sciences, attending these events can involve extensive travel. We surveyed Association of Polar Early Career Scientists members and other early career members of the polar science community to investigate the geographic and international variability in travel support relative to costs across the early stages of a researcher's career (Masters students, PhD students, post-docs and those in faculty or permanent research positions). 190 respondents from 38 countries answered questions on the perceived availability of different types and sources of travel funding and described up to three events they attended over the last two years. We found that the cost of attendance prevented nearly three-quarters of respondents from participating in at least one career-relevant events in the preceding two years. Due to insufficient research funding, early career researchers frequently have to top up partial support with personal funds. Increased event-based travel support would help to reduce out of pocket expenses, as would the timely notification of a travel award to benefit from early bird registration and cheaper travel and accommodation. Replacing the more common practice of travel reimbursement with a travel advance would remove another barrier to attendance. Large disparities in what kinds of expenses are covered exist between geographic regions and funding mechanisms. Addressing the disparities in travel support for career-relevant events will promote diversity and foster inclusion in the next generation of polar scientists.
Rendición de cuentas y legitimidad: una propuesta de tipología de los sistemas políticos autocráticos y democráticos
Authors: Soto Sainz Oliver
Published: June 2020

En este artículo pretendemos presentar el concepto de sistema político como la base para la elaboración de una tipología empíricamente útil para dividir los sistemas políticos en categorías que nos permitan extraer conclusiones sobre su funcionamiento. El concepto de sistema nos engloba el marco de objetivos, normas y estructuras en el que se desenvuelven los actores para dar respuestas a las demandas, incorporando tanto el marco normativo, como la interacción de los actores con objetivos, normas y estructuras y de éstos a su vez con las demandas. En este estudio identificamos dentro del enfoque sistémico dos momentos: el sistema como procesamiento de demandas y el sistema como productor de resultados. Empleamos el sistema como procesamiento de demandas como centro de nuestro ejercicio clasificatorio, basado en dos nociones básicas para la Ciencia Política, la rendición de cuentas y la legitimidad. Centrando nuestro análisis en el modo en que se procesan las demandas hemos aplicado tres criterios de clasificación: el número efectivo de actores y grupos de intermediación y articulación de demandas ante los que responde el sistema, el carácter civil o militar de los dirigentes del sistema y el principio de legitimidad frente a los apoyos al sistema. Finalmente, en este artículo procedemos a aplicar las categorías resultantes en todos los países entre 1960 y 2006, comparándolo con otras clasificaciones.
Gestión del Conocimiento en el siglo XXI: universidad y cambio de época
Authors: López García Ramón Ignacio
Published: June 2020

El artículo nos invita a repensar el momento educativo en el que nos encontramos desde el campo de la enseñanza universitaria. Apuesta retomar la teoría del “cambio de época” como forma crítica para desentrañar el quo vadis de la formación educativa, donde se promueve un intento de pensar en las preguntas que necesitamos responder para desarrollar la propuesta educativa que nos ayude en el presente y no a pensar en las respuestas que el sistema mismo nos diseña para que reaccionemos con respuestas ya estudiadas por el aparato colonizador, quien en silencio se instala en el quehacer educativo y en otros ámbitos de la vida. Un espacio reflexivo en el que bien cabe preguntarse ¿hacia dónde vamos y hacia dónde queremos ir con los procesos de formación profesional?

The Mineralogical Evolution of the Clastic Dominant-Type Zn-Pb ± Ba Deposits at Macmillan Pass (Yukon, Canada)—Tracing Subseafloor Barite Replacement in the Layered Mineralization
Authors: Magnall Joseph M. , Gleeson Sarah A. , Creaser Robert A. , Paradis Suzanne , Glodny Johannes , Richard Kyle J.
Published: June 2020

Clastic dominant-type massive sulfide deposits are well preserved in Upper Devonian carbonaceous mudstones in the Macmillan Pass district (Yukon, Canada). The Macmillan Pass deposits have been considered to be type examples of sedimentary exhalative Zn-Pb mineralization, whereby sulfides precipitated when hydrothermal fluids were vented into a euxinic (H2S-bearing) water column. We propose a new mineralization model, documenting the mineralogical evolution of layered mineralization. We show that textures previously interpreted to form via depositional processes actually formed by subseafloor replacement of diagenetic barite. Mineral assemblages associated with barite dissolution in the layered mineralization include (1) barium carbonate phases (witherite, barytocalcite, and norsethite), which are intergrown with Zn-Pb sulfides and represent localized Ba mass transfer, and (2) barium feldspar (celsian, hyalophane) that is abundant in the mudstones surrounding the layered mineralization. The barium feldspar formed following transport of Ba in low-sulfate fluids on the margins of the subseafloor replacement system. This resulted in whole-rock Ba enrichments (up to 5 wt %) in mudstones 15 m below and above the layered mineralization. High Ba in these surrounding mudstones is coupled with decreasing K/Al ratios, indicative of secondary illite and kaolinite. The source(s) of fluids related to the diagenetic (barite, barytocalcite) and hydrothermal (ankerite) assemblages can be constrained using Sr isotopes. Whereas highly radiogenic 87Sr/86Sr values (>0.714) in ankerite correspond with host-rock alteration within the vent complex, the overlying barite and barytocalcite preserve lower 87Sr/86Sr values (<0.714), providing evidence of mixing between a radiogenic fluid (likely a formation water) and Late Devonian seawater. The complex mineralogy and paragenesis contained within the layered mineralization are linked to a protracted history of diagenetic and hydrothermal fluid events, all of which took place in and peripheral to a subseafloor replacement hydrothermal system.

Effects of Written Corrective Feedback: A Synthesis of 10 Quasi-Experimental Studies
Authors: Abalkheel Albatool , Brandenburg Tara
Published: June 2020

Many language teachers spend countless hours correcting student writing in hopes of improvement in accuracy, but as of yet, there has been little consensus regarding the efficacy of written corrective feedback (CF) or the type of CF that is most efficient. Although many studies have been conducted on the topic, conflicting results have arisen. In this meta-analysis, ten quasi-experimental studies of written corrective feedback are examined to analysis the overall effect of CF and compare the variations of CF. It is shown that written corrective feedback in general is inconclusive as a predictor of student improvement in writing over time and the efficacy of the feedback depends on its focus. It is also shown that focused written feedback has any overall positive effect on student’s writing, whereas comprehensive written feedback has the potential to have a harmful effect on student’s writing over time.

Demand Response: Smart Market Designs for Smart Consumers
Authors: Astier Nicolas , Léautier Thomas-Olivier
Published: June 2020

We study Peak-Time-Rebates (PTR) contracts in day-ahead electricity markets.Such contracts reward customers for reducing their consumption when wholesale prices are high. We start by pointing out that these market designs create arbitrage opportunities which, under asymmetric information, incentivize strategic consumers to inflate their baseline. We then show that an incentive compatible PTR design is equivalent to a variable Critical-Peak-Pricing design (vCPP), in which customers have to purchase their peak consumption at the spot price. Under asymmetric information, a relevant question is thus to design vCPP contracts optimally in order to achieve high enrollment rates under voluntary opt-in. This problem has different solutions depending on whether policy-makers choose to maintain existing cross-subsidies or not.
A territorial scale-based model for Euroregions and its implications for Cross-Border Cooperation in maritime contexts
Authors: Camonita Francesco Maria , Durà Guimerà Antoni , Noferini Andrea
Published: June 2020

This article attempts to advance the theoretical debate on Euroregions by focusing on their governance structures and the territorial scale of their activities. It develops around a sample of 60 Euroregions and as many corresponding INTERREG projects provided by previous research on Euroregional practices (Durà et al., 2018). Firstly, it elaborates a Euroregional model for the classification of these cross-border governance structures by focusing on i) a territorial scale-based typology of the cross-border cooperation activities performed and ii) the institutional density and level of self-government of the Euroregional actors involved. Secondly, theoretical contributions are applied in the case of territories mainly focused around maritime borders. By exploiting the results of the research, the article strongly suggests the exploitation of supralocal and regional partnerships alongside employing multilevel Euroregions in cross-sea cooperation.

Soziale Welten der Migration
Authors: Trzeciak Miriam Friz
Published: June 2020

Was bedeutet Migration für die Menschen, die an den Herkunftsorten bleiben? Die Studie rekonstruiert soziale Welten der Migration aus Perspektive der Herkunftsorte in Südmexiko. Sie basiert auf einer ethnographischen Untersuchung, die kollaborativ mit den Bewohner*innen indigener Dorfgemeinschaften in der südmexikanischen Region La Selva Lacandona durchgeführt und qualitativ ausgewertet wurde. Auf Grundlage dekolonialer, geschlechtertheoretischer und transnationaler Ansätze wird gezeigt, dass für die indigenen Dorfgemeinschaften Migration weniger eine Flucht vor den Verhältnissen der Armut und Marginalisierung bedeutet, sondern vielmehr die Möglichkeit bietet, das kommunale Leben am Herkunftsort aufrechtzuerhalten.
Pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta in skin of color: new observations by dermoscopy
Authors: Ankad Balachandra S. , Beergouder Savitha L.
Published: June 2020

Background: Pityriasis lichenoides is an uncommon skin disease that presents in three different forms: pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta (PLEVA), pityriasis lichenoides chronica (PLC) and febrile ulceronecrotic-Mucha-Habermann disease. These represent a spectrum of a disease. PLEVA presents as skin eruption of multiple, small, red papules that develop into polymorphic lesions with periods of varying remissions, as well as possible sequels of hyper/hypopigmentation and varicella-like scars. Diagnosis of this condition is mainly clinical, and sometimes clinical differentiation from other conditions may be a difficult task that often requires histological analysis. In this study, PLEVA lesions were examined by dermoscopy, and the significance of specific dermoscopic findings was investigated in order to facilitate their differentiation from other inflammatory conditions.

Objectives: To evaluate dermoscopic patterns in PLEVA and to correlate these patterns with histopathology.

Materials and methods: The study was conducted at S. Nijalingappa Medical College, Bagalkot. It was an observational case series study and patients were selected randomly. Ethical clearance and informed consent were obtained. PLEVA lesions in early and late phases were evaluated. A manual DermLite 3 (3Gen, San Juan Capistrano, CA) dermoscope attached to a Sony (Cyber Shot DSC-W800, Sony Electronics Inc., San Diego, California, USA, digital, 14 mega pixels) camera was employed. Histopathology was done to confirm the diagnosis. Data was collected and analyzed. Results were statistically described in terms of frequencies and types of dermoscopic patterns.

Results: There was a total of 14 patients; 8 males and 6 females. Mean age of patients was 19 years. Mean duration of disease was 7 months. Dermoscopy in early-phase lesions revealed amorphous brownish areas around the hair follicles, dotted vessels, and scaling. Dermoscopy in late-phase lesions showed whitish-structureless areas and central white crust within whitish-structureless rim with scale, focal bluish-grayish areas or centrifugal strands irregularly distributed along the periphery and yellow structures. Red dots and hemorrhage were seen at the center and glomerular vessels at the periphery.

Conclusion: PLEVA demonstrates specific dermoscopic patterns that correlate well with histologic changes. New dermoscopic findings are described. Thus, dermoscopy is a good diagnostic tool in the clinical diagnosis of PLEVA.

Dermoscopy is already considered a fairly established method for diagnosing scabies. This is because dermoscopy enables the visualisation both of the burrow and the mite itself, forming the so-called “jet with a contrail” structure. In the present report we present an extraordinary case of a patient with scabies lesions on the face and neck, which was misdiagnosed during sequential visits and underwent unnecessary surgical diagnostic procedures. Finally, the diagnostic problem was solved when dermoscopy was applied.

We present a case of nail apparatus melanoma in a 50-year-old woman presenting as new and changing longitudinal melanonychia of the right thumb. Very heavy melanin pigmentation involving both the epidermis and dermis interfered with dermatopathological assessment, which initially leads to a diagnosis of nail matrix blue nevus. After consultation with a specialist multidisciplinary clinic the diagnosis was revised to invasive melanoma, a diagnosis consistent with the clinical and dermatoscopic assessment.

Published: June 2020

The association of melanoma with a preexisting nevus is still a debated subject. Histopathological data support an associated nevus in approximately 30% of all excised melanomas. The annual risk of an individual melanocytic nevus becoming malignant is extremely low and has been estimated to be approximately 0.0005% (or less than 1 in 200,000) before the age of 40 years, to 0.003% (1 in 33,000) in patients older than 60 years. Current understanding, based on the noticeable, small, truly congenital nevi and nevi acquired early in life, is that the first develops before puberty, presents with a dermoscopic globular pattern, and persists for the lifetime, becoming later a dermal nevus in the adult. In contrast, acquired melanocytic nevi develop mostly at puberty and usually undergo spontaneous involution after the fifth decade of life. The purpose of this review is to analyze the data of the literature and to propose, on the basis of epidemiological and clinical-dermoscopic characteristics, a new model of melanogenesis of nevus-associated melanoma.

Published: June 2020

Unwanted hair growth, which is a common aesthetic problem, has traditionally been treated using various techniques such as shaving, waxing, and epilation, but most of these provide only a temporary solution. Laser and light-based technology for hair removal has become one of the fastest growing procedures in modern cosmetic dermatology in the last decade. Clinical experience suggests that in the ideal subject with fair skin and dark hair, laser treatment can reduce hair growth significantly. This article reviews the various laser and light-based devices used for hair removal along with the various laser and patient parameters that affect the outcome of laser treatment for hair removal. Photoepilation, when properly used, offers clear advantages when compared with older, traditional techniques.

Pedagogía de los mártires, comunidades militantes católicas y territorio: el caso de la Isla Maciel, Buenos Aires, Argentina (2016-2019)
Authors: Tribilsi Leonel Salomón
Published: June 2020

El presente artículo propone analizar algunos aspectos de las dinámicas del activismo religioso católico en un barrio marginal del Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, la isla Maciel, en la actualidad (2016-2019). Se busca comprender cómo allí se ponen en funcionamiento prácticas pedagógicas hilvanadas en torno a las figuras de los mártires del catolicismo, es decir, sacerdotes, religiosos/as y obispos que fueron objeto de la represión estatal durante la última dictadura militar (1976-1983) y que han conformado un canon memorial en la posdictadura. Se abordarán dos dimensiones, por un lado, el repertorio de símbolos, imágenes, murales, slogans que marcan el territorio de la parroquia y sus anexos a los fines de contribuir a la comprensión de la construcción de comunidades militantes en los barrios populares. Por el otro, las redes de activismo social, político y humanitario que se tejen más allá de las fronteras territoriales. Por último, se problematizarán las tensiones que surgen de estas dinámicas, poniendo en evidencia los límites del repertorio pedagógico.
Víctimas de violencia sexual: construcción de comunidades de creyentes y acceso a la(s) justicia(s).
Authors: Barán Attias Taly
Published: June 2020

Este artículo compara dos colectivos de víctimas de violencia sexual, por un lado, un grupo de mujeres que narran haber sido atacadas sexualmente por el Pombero (deidad proveniente de la mitología guaraní con fuerte arraigo en Paraguay y el nordeste argentino) y por otro, las mujeres víctimas de violencia sexual que logran inscribir su caso desde categorías coincidentes con el discurso legal. Se analizan las estrategias de protección y reparación desplegadas por cada colectivo y también cómo son recepcionados socialmente ambos tipos de casos de violencia sexual, a fin de pensar cómo se teje el reconocimiento al sufrimiento y las estrategias de creencia en torno a las víctimas. Es decir, se busca abonar a la comprensión de la relación entre la violación sexual, la construcción de creencias y el acceso a la justicia. Así también, a través de la comparación de casos, se apunta a la comprensión y tratamiento de la violencia sexual como hecho social.
Las víctimas frente al sufrimiento colectivo: estructuras morales y sacralizaciones emergentes.
Authors: Vecchioli Virginia , Catoggio María Soledad
Published: June 2020

Los artículos reunidos aquí muestran cómo las formas de movilización de las víctimas y la gestión del sufrimiento colectivo están atravesadas por su relación con el espacio de lo sagrado, entendido en un sentido amplio y diverso. Presentan en forma novedosa las diversas articulaciones entre las gramáticas de lo sagrado y el activismo de sobrevivientes y familiares de víctimas, el lugar de los especialistas en la consagración de sus figuras en el espacio público y las políticas de gestión de su sufrimiento. Su lectura nos permite recorrer las acciones del movimiento negro y los colectivos de familiares de la violencia urbana en Brasil, las prácticas de los curas identificados con la opción por los pobres y la emergencia de organizaciones de familiares de víctimas de la violencia institucional en la Argentina, el surgimiento de nuevas  formas de espiritualidad y gestión del pasado de las víctimas del terrorismo de Estado en Argentina y Uruguay, las iniciativas del movimiento de familiares de  víctimas de la violencia terrorista en País Vasco, las estrategias de protección y/o denuncia de mujeres víctimas de violencia sexual en Argentina y Paraguay y los emprendimientos de los colectivos que gestionan la salida del apartheid en Sudáfrica. De la lectura de los trabajos se destaca la forma en que la intervención pública de estos colectivos instituye regímenes de verdad que tensionan y/o resignifican las reivindicaciones clásicas de memoria, verdad y justicia y los modos de gestión del pasado establecidos a partir de la gramática binaria víctima-victimario.

La socialdemocracia alemana y el movimiento sindical ibérico durante las transiciones a la democracia (1974-1979) = The German Social Democracy and the Iberian Trade Union Movement during the Transition to Democracy (1974-1979)
Authors: Muñoz Sánchez Antonio
Published: June 2020

El texto trata de la dimensión internacional de la transición sindical en Portugal y España. En concreto, analiza la contribución de la socialdemocracia alemana a la reconstrucción del movimiento sindical socialista, muy débil en ambos países al iniciarse el proceso de transición. Muestra cómo el temor a que el predominio comunista en las dos grandes centrales ibéricas, Intersindical y Comisiones Obreras, significase un factor de inestabilidad permanente en las nacientes democracias, movió a la DGB y la Fundación Ebert a implicarse masivamente en apoyo de las modestas organizaciones socialistas. El texto explora las líneas maestras de la colaboración con los cuadros sindicales del Partido Socialista portugués y con la española Unión General de Trabajadores. El autor defiende la tesis, que podrá refrendarse o refutarse cuando se permita el acceso a algunas fuentes relevantes en Madrid y Lisboa, que el apoyo alemán fue crucial para el meteórico ascenso del histórico sindicato socialista español y para la creación de homónima central portuguesa União Geral de Trabalhadores. AbstractThis paper deals with the international dimension of the trade union transition in Portugal and Spain in the 1970s. It analyzes the contribution of German social democracy to the reconstruction of the socialist labor movement, which were extremely weak in both countries at the beginning of the transitions. It shows how the fear that the communist dominance in the two great Iberian unions, Intersindical and Comisiones Obreras, meant a permanent instability factor in the nascent democracies, moved the DGB and the Ebert Foundation to massively support the modest socialist labor movement. The text explores the main lines of the cooperation with the trade union cadres of the Portuguese Socialist Party and with the Spanish Unión General de Trabajadores. The author holds the thesis, which can be endorsed or refuted when access to some relevant sources in Madrid and Lisbon is allowed, that German support was crucial for the meteoric rise of the historic Spanish socialist union and for the creation of the homonym Portuguese União Geral de Trabalhadores.
Cisneros de José María Pemán, una apología del autoritarismo = Cisneros by José María Pemán, in Defence of Authoritarianism
Authors: García Peña Marta
Published: June 2020

En diciembre de 1934 José M.ª Pemán, estrechamente vinculado al grupo de Acción Española, estrenaba Cisneros, su tercera producción teatral. Como las anteriores, esta estaba cargada de referencias a la situación política. El presente artículo tratará de demostrar la dimensión propagandística de Cisneros en un momento en el que la derecha monárquica reivindicaba un régimen autoritario. Para ello se realizará un análisis de la obra desde una doble óptica valorando tanto la intencionalidad del autor como la recepción del público. El estudio tendrá en cuenta varios factores: la vertiente ideológica del autor y de su entorno, la estrecha relación de la obra con el contexto político así como su parentesco con los textos doctrinales publicados en la revista Acción Española. En relación con el modo en el que este producto teatral fue recibido, se considerará también la interpretación que el público y la crítica hicieron del mismo.AbstractDecember 1934 saw the release of Cisneros, the third play written by José M.ª Pemán, who was closely affiliated to the group Acción Española. As with his earlier plays, this was laden with references to the political situation. This article seeks to demonstrate the propagandistic magnitude of Cisneros at a time when the monarchist right wing was advocating an authoritarian regime. To this end, the play is analysed from a dual perspective, assessing both the playwright’s intent and the audience’s acceptance. The study considers a number of factors: the writer’s ideological standpoint and his environment, the close ties between the play and the political context as well as its relationship to the doctrinal texts published in the journal Acción Española. As regards the way in which the play was received, the audience’s interpretation of the play and that of the critics is also considered.

El presente artículo es un fragmento del Trabajo Final de Máster que se defendió en septiembre de 2017, fue tutorizado por el profesor D. Gil Pecharromán en el marco del Máster de la España Contemporánea en el Contexto Internacional de la UNED. El trabajo consistió en una investigación sobre la importancia que tuvo la asociación de veteranos de guerra Hermandad de Alféreces Provisionales[1], cuya creación marcó la agenda política de la dictadura de finales de los años 50.  Con el trabajo, resumido en el artículo, se pretendía lograr un triple objetivo: llenar el vacío historiográfico existente en referencia a la creación de la HAP, aportar documentación nueva que apoye o no la tesis dominante de que la HAP fue una creación del Ejército como altavoz político en la escena pública; y por último, la tesis inicial del trabajo era que la HAP surgió como una idea espontánea de un grupo de veteranos alféreces provisionales, y que únicamente cuando esa idea se convirtió en una asociación con millares de miembros, el Ejército intervino para mediatizarla.his article is a fragment of a bigger research about the origin and initally importance of a civil war veteran association called «Hermandad de Alféreces Provisionales», whose apparition was really important in Francoist politics of the fifties. The «Alféreces Provisionales» were the core of the Francois army during the Spanish Civil War, and later on they were formed an important lobby inside the dictatorship regime.With the thesis, summarized in this article, there were three objectives to achieve: fill the lack of knowledge about the creation of the «HAP», get new evidence to support or not the most accepted theory,  that says that the «HAP» was a creation of the army as a way of getting more influence in politics; and finally, the initial theory of the thesis was that the  «HAP» was an unplanned project of the veterans, and only when they became a successful association, the Army intervened to control them.[1] En adelante HAP.

Published: June 2020

Este trabalho teve como objetivo verificar a ocorrência de diferenças nas estimativas de diâmetro, altura e volume em diferentes níveis de amostragem por meio de diferentes comprimentos de seções, considerando ou não a influência da base com o uso de funções de afilamento. No processo de cubagem, foram medidos 70 fustes do híbrido Eucayptus urophylla x Eucalyptus grandis, com 8 anos de idade. Para efeito do estudo, considerou-se dez níveis de amostragem separados por comprimentos de seções de 0,5 m, 1,0 m, 1,5 m, 2,0 m, 2,5 m, 3,0 m, 3,5 m, 4,0 m, 4,5 m e 5,0. Foi ajustado o modelo de afilamento de Demaerschalk em cada um dos níveis amostrados, considerando ou não a influência da base para obtenção das estimativas dos parâmetros utilizados na estimação das variáveis. A escolha do nível de amostragem mais preciso, considerando ou não a influência da base, foi feita pela análise gráfica dos resíduos, do coeficiente de determinação ( , do erro padrão da estimativa (Syx(%)), do viés (V), da média das diferenças (MD) e do desvio padrão das diferenças (DPD). Os resultados mostraram que o nível de amostragem de 0,5 m foi mais preciso em estimar as variáveis analisadas, principalmente no cálculo do volume. Ficou evidenciado também que as estimativas considerando a influência da base tiveram resultados mais precisos em relação ao grupo que não considerou esta influência. Dessa forma, concluiu-se que seções menores com mais seções medidas na base tem estimativas mais acuradas de diâmetro, altura e volume.
Fagligt entreprenørskab i erhvervsuddannelserne

En forskergruppe har fulgt 73 erhvervsskolelærere på efteruddannelse som gennem undervisningseksperimenter har udforsket og udviklet didaktisk praksis rettet mod udvikling af elevernes innovative og entreprenørielle kompetencer.

Ny forskning viser, at elever fra GF1 til svendeprøve - også de elever, der har faglige udfordringer, motiveres og engageres, når der gøres op med den traditionelle undervisningsform og i stedet fokuseres på en mere eksperimenterende og intensiv undervisningsform, hvor det er eleverne, der sætter retning.

Et forskerteam har fulgt læreres undervisningseksperimenter fra både SOSU-, Merkantile- og Tekniske skoler. I gennem interview og observation er der fundet didaktiske greb og forhold i entreprenørskabsundervisning, som gør en forskel for elevernes læring og motivation.

Konklusionen i analysen peger på, at det øger intensiteten og engagementet blandt eleverne, når de får mulighed for arbejde med læring ift. noget, der er personligt meningsfuldt, involverer handling, samarbejde med andre elever, kreativitet og autentiske opgaver, der værdsættes i omverdenen.

Fem fokuspunkter:1.Det udvider læringsindholdet med eleveksperimenter, hvor eleverne ikke bare lærer mere eller er mere motiverede, men de lærer intensivt gennem udforskning af og afprøvning i praksis

2.Åbenhed om indhold og form i undervisningen giver mere indflydelse og selvbestemmelse til elever. Inddragelse af virksomheder og institutioner som de kan samarbejde med understøtter dette

3. Støtte undervejs ved at forholde sig undrende, undersøgende og som medskaber i processen, giver plads til elevers selvigangsatte aktiviteter og

4. Gruppearbejde, hvor eleverne har fælles ansvar og træffer de vigtigste beslutninger sammen, betyder, at alle trækker på samme hammel – trods individuelle forskelle.

5.Inklusion gennem samarbejde, hvor eleverne oplever anerkendelse og aktiv deltagelse af alle, minimerer sociale og faglige udfordringer.

Resultaterne peger på, at entreprenørskabsundervisning åbner for, at elever får medindflydelse på både indhold, tidsforbrug, slutproduktet og evalueringsform. Det gør eleverne mere engagerede og deltagende i undervisningen. De tager medansvar for deres læring og føler et ejerskab over processen
Pædagogikken i videnskabernes mosaik
Authors: Jensen Hans Siggaard
Published: June 2020

En analyse af de videns- og forskningsformer der bestemmer pædagogikens karakter. Der sondres mellem tre 1. forskning om hver der virker, 2. forskning med henblik på at forklare og forstå - dvs. udvikle teorier og 3. forskning der søger anvendelse af teorier i et nødvendigt samspil med filosofisk antropologi og etik.
