Legal Basis and Nature of the Obligation to Provide Just Accommodation to Employees with Disabilities etc.
Authors:   The Institute of Legal Studies, Kyunghee University, Cha Sung-An
Published: July 2022

The most direct legal basis for the obligation to provide just accommodation to employees with disabilities is the Anti-Discrimination against and Remedies for Persons with Disabilities Act(ADRPDA). ADRPDA divides discrimination into direct discrimination, indirect discrimination, and refusal to provide just accommodation. The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities(CRPD) has separate provisions for non-discrimination and the obligation to provide reasonable accommodation in relation to employment. CRPD is an international treaty that has been ratified and agreed to by the National Assembly and has the same effect as domestic laws, so it can serve as a legal basis for the obligation to provide accommodation. In particular, CRPD are particularly useful in areas that set a higher or more specific level of coverage than ADRPDA, such as not acknowledging reasons for defense, such as excessive burden in the area of accessibility standards, or specifying conditions for a safe and sanitary working environment. The obligation to provide accommodation to employees with disabilities can also be derived based on general anti-discrimination provisions such as the Employment Act for the Disabled, the Welfare Act for the Disabled, the Labor Standards Act, and the Equal Rights of the Constitution. This discussion has great benefits in that the provisions on the obligation to provide accommodation under ADRPDA is incomplete in several respects. The obligation to provide accommodation can be derived normatively from the concept of non-discrimination, and has essentially a legal character as a non-discrimination. The duty of accommodation originated from the United States. Under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, in the field of employment discrimination based on religion, the principle that refusal to provide accommodation constitutes discrimination was applied for the first time. After that, refusal to provide accommodation was recognized as discrimination in relation to the prohibition of discrimination in employment based on disability under the Rehabilitation Act of 1972. At the same time, the employer's obligation to provide accommodation grants the other party the right to claim the fulfillment of the obligation to provide accommodation. The duty to provide accommodation and the right to request accommodation can also be derived from contract law through the concept of the duty of consideration based on the labor contract. The above review on the legal basis and nature of the obligation to provide accommodation gives many implications to the discussion of various issues related to the obligation to provide accommodation in ADRPDA.

Published: July 2022

Cassava is used as a staple food in many developing countries despite its low nutrient density. Fortification of cassava diets is needed for the prevention of malnutrition and achievement of food security. Cassava-soybean complementary foods were formulated from natural and solid state fermented cassava complemented with soybean. The proximate composition, physicochemical properties, nutritional quality, and sensory properties of the samples were determined (Table 2). The moisture content (7.51%) and ash (3.81%) content of the solid state fermented (SSF) cassava flour complemented with un-defatted soybean flour was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than of the other samples. Solid state fermentation (SSF) led to the highest reduction in viscosity (from 2,855 to 2,052 cPs). Average weight gain and protein efficiency ratio (PER) of experimental animals fed SSF cassava were the highest. The colour and aroma of SSF diets and that of fermented cassava samples were similar (P > 0.05). The texture of diets from SSF cassava were inferior (P < 0.05) to the other samples. Solid state fermentation of cassava with Rhizopus oligosporus and supplementation with soybean can be used to produce a complementary food that is nutrient dense and nutritionally adequate, although the texture of the product might need to be improved.
What the grey literature can contribute to addictive behaviour disorder classification •
Authors: Kuss Daria J. , Lopez-Fernandez Olatz
Published: July 2022

This commentary examines the proposal made by Brand et al. (2022) regarding a framework outlining relevant criteria for considering possible behavioural addictions within the current World Health Organisation's International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) category of ‘other specified disorders due to addictive behaviours’. We agree with the framework as it highlights the clinical perspective requiring agreed-upon classifications and criteria to produce effective diagnostic procedures and efficacious treatments. Additionally, we propose to add the need of recognising potential addictive behaviour through the inclusion of a fourth meta-level criterion: ‘grey literature evidence’. Utilising non-academic evidence can provide validity in the social context where the behaviour takes place, and it can support authorities in taking action to prevent and treat the resultant behavioural problems. The inclusion of the proposed fourth criterion will aid comprehensibility of the current proposal and provide clarity, as indicated in the present commentary, which includes the fourth criterion analysis for problematic pornography use, shopping/buying and social networking site use.
Detailed study on MOCVD of wafer-scale MoS2 monolayers: From nucleation to coalescence

Published: July 2022

Metal–organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) has become one of the most promising techniques for the large-scale fabrication of 2D transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) materials. Despite efforts devoted to the development of MOCVD for TMDC monolayers, the whole picture of the growth process has not been fully unveiled yet. In this work, we employ a commercial AIXTRON CCS MOCVD tool for the deposition of MoS2 on sapphire using standard precursors and H2 as carrier gas. Adsorption and diffusion of Mo adatoms on the substrate are found to be decisive for nucleation. By lowering temperature from 650 to 450 °C, a uniform distribution of nuclei on sapphire terraces is achieved. Full coalescence of MoS2 monolayers with limited bilayer formation (~ 15%) is then realized at 700 °C. This study highlights the importance of understanding the details of film formation mechanisms and developing multi-stage MOCVD processes for 2D TMDC films.

Relasi Sufisme dan Politik pada Masyarakat Mataraman di Kediri
Authors: Alamin Taufik
Published: July 2022

Since the thirteenth century AD, the presence of a new model of Sufism, neo-Sufism, has impacted the infiltration of political identity in the spiritual flow of the tarekat practicing society. The spiritual world of Sufism has experienced a paradigm shift in thinking, from what was originally a movement that balances the hereafter and the worldly things, but in the end this movement is also considered very pragmatic-contextual that enters the socio-political dimension. This article wants to provide a new understanding of how the balanced relationship between Sufism and politics occurs in the Mataraman community, Kediri, East Java. By using the non-participant observer technique, this article produces two things: first, the political culture formed in the Kediri Mataraman society has a centralized pattern, where both tarekat congregations and ordinary people devote themselves to any field of social problems to a kiai. Sufi kiai becomes the main role models because they are considered pious people for the Mataraman community. This recognition of the Sufi kiai figure forms a group of socio-political systems. Second, the political pyramid that developed in the people of Kediri City follows a hierarchical-centralized pyramid pattern, where the kiai/murshid tarekat are ordained as the movers and creators of the foremost political culture after the Kediri city government and business bureaucrats. This pattern of social structure becomes the link so that leadership can be achieved and become the material for formulating political strategies.
Kesalehan Beragama Komunitas Hijaber di Surabaya: Dari Etis-Normatif ke Estetik-Populis
Authors: Rofhani Rofhani
Published: July 2022

Muslimah fashion models evolve at a breakneck pace, altering not only consumption but also the perception of a person’s belief and piety. There are some wrangling overvalues, piety, and even the status of a Muslimah dressed in Islamic garb. The material and spiritual realms are fused in a dress symbol, which eventually leads to popular piety in everyday life. By integrating an ethical and aesthetic perspective into the material and spiritual realms, the existence and development of middle-class Muslimah clothing is an expression of an identity centered on the popularity of piety. By utilizing ethnographic methods such as interviews and observations of fashion trends and the Hijaber Mom Community in Indonesia, this article attempts to answer the question of whether fashion models should emphasize self-pity or follow current fashion trends. The article demonstrates how the religious practices of middle-class Muslimah have shifted. According to them, religious piety no longer occurs in a sacred space but rather in a public space. Muslimah dress evolved from ethical-normative to aesthetic-populist, resulting in the formation of popular piety and piety adapted to the development of fashion models.
Hurricanes and Mortality among Patients Receiving Dialysis

Published: July 2022

Significance Statement

Hurricanes are disruptive weather events that can impede the provision of dialysis. The mortality risk for patients who are dialysis dependent and exposed to hurricanes is unknown. This study describes the association between hurricane exposure and 30-day mortality in the eastern United States from 1997 to 2017. Exposure to a hurricane with peak local wind speeds of hurricane force (≥64 knots) was associated with a higher mortality risk that peaked immediately after the hurricane and waned over time. This suggests that patients who are dialysis dependent are vulnerable during hurricanes, and highlights the need to safeguard this population, especially amidst the predicted increased hurricane intensity in the setting of anthropogenic climate change.

Background

Hurricanes are severe weather events that can disrupt power, water, and transportation systems. These disruptions may be deadly for patients requiring maintenance dialysis. We hypothesized that the mortality risk among patients requiring maintenance dialysis would be increased in the 30 days after a hurricane.

Methods

Patients registered as requiring maintenance dialysis in the United States Renal Data System who initiated treatment between January 1, 1997 and December 31, 2017 in one of 108 hurricane-afflicted counties were followed from dialysis initiation until transplantation, dialysis discontinuation, a move to a nonafflicted county, or death. Hurricane exposure was determined as a tropical cyclone event with peak local wind speeds ≥64 knots in the county of a patient’s residence. The risk of death after the hurricane was estimated using time-varying Cox proportional hazards models.

Results

The median age of the 187,388 patients was 65 years (IQR, 53–75) and 43.7% were female. There were 27 hurricanes and 105,398 deaths in 529,339 person-years of follow-up on dialysis. In total, 29,849 patients were exposed to at least one hurricane. Hurricane exposure was associated with a significantly higher mortality after adjusting for demographic and socioeconomic covariates (hazard ratio, 1.13; 95% confidence interval, 1.05 to 1.22). The association persisted when adjusting for seasonality.

Conclusions

Patients requiring maintenance dialysis have a higher mortality risk in the 30 days after a hurricane.

Objectives

To determine the extent and characteristics of in-school transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and determine risk factors for in-school acquisition of COVID-19 in one of Canada’s largest school districts.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective chart review of all reportable cases of COVID-19 who attended a kindergarten–Grade 12 (K-12) school within the study area between January and June of the 2020–2021 school year. The acquisition source was inferred based on epidemiological data and, when available, whole genome sequencing results. Mixed effects logistic regression was performed to identify risk factors independently associated with in-school acquisition of COVID-19.

Results

Overall, 2877 cases of COVID-19 among staff and students were included in the analysis; of those, 9.1% had evidence of in-school acquisition. The median cluster size was two cases (interquartile range: 1). Risk factors for in-school acquisition included being male (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 1.59, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.17–2.17), being a staff member (aOR: 2.62, 95% CI: 1.64–4.21) and attending or working in an independent school (aOR: 2.28, 95% CI: 1.13–4.62).

Conclusion

In-school acquisition of COVID-19 was uncommon during the study period. Risk factors were identified in order to support the implementation of mitigation strategies that can reduce transmission further.

Authors: Kaci Mustapha , Radjef Sonia
Published: July 2022

In this paper, a new approach is developed to solve multi-level multi-objective linear programming problems (ML-MOLPP), by providing the set of all the compromises without taking into account the hierarchy of the problem. A simple criterion is developed for testing whether a given feasible solution is a possible compromise or not. We describe a method used to generate the set of all the compromises, based on the P.L. Yu and M. Zeleny’s method. Theoretical results, numerical example and flow diagram are reported.
A Multidimensional Decision Making for Supplier Selection in the presence of Information Systems
Authors: Kazemitash Navid , Fazlollahtabar Hamed
Published: July 2022

Information Systems (IS) have turned into vital means for companies to survive in the contemporary technology-oriented environment. Subsequently, over the last decades, this has brought about the heavy investment of companies in ISs to guarantee high-quality products and services. Similarly, supplier selection (SS) plays an inescapable role in today’s business. In addition, there are several studies published showing the importance of the ISs in the SS problem. However, there has not been any work evaluating the effectiveness of ISs on the SS problem, including a comprehensive and up-to date SS model. Therefore, this study proposed a complete model including six criteria that are almost most important and shared in the literature: sustainability, reliability, resiliency, greenness, risk and cost, and 31 sub-criteria. Then the effectiveness of 10 ISs on the SS problem has been shown through using BWM in two consecutive stages, and then the model conducted in Emdadkhodro automotive company to show its practicality and accuracy.
Study of Birth-Death Processes with Immigration
Authors: K.S. Shiny , Viswanath Narayanan C.
Published: July 2022

Birth-death processes are applied in the modelling of many biological populations, such as tumour cells and viruses. Various studies have established that birth-death processes, which occurwhen the population size is zero, are not in-line with reality in many situations. Therefore, in this study, the birth-death processes with immigration were investigated. We considered two immigration policies. First, immigration is allowed if and only if the population size is zero. Second, immigration at a constant rate is allowed irrespective of the population size. Birth and death rates were chosen such that the mean population size is a Gompertz function when the immigration rate is zero. The transient population size probability was obtained for both cases. Several tumour growth datasets were fitted using the mean population size of the above models and standard birth-death model without immigration. The two models with immigration provided entirely different probabilities of the population size being zero at an arbitrary epoch when compared with the model without immigration. Moreover, all three models provided a similar fit to the data. For each of the datasets studied, the models that allowed immigration produced less variance than the non-immigration model.
Monitoring Stock Market Returns

Published: July 2022

Financial analysis plays a major role in investing the disposable income of various economic agents. Stock markets are predominantly made up of small investors with limited information and low capabilities for a suitable analysis. Researchers, as well as practitioners, are divided over the findings on the adequacy of technical analysis in investing. This paper examines the Markov chain process in the stock market to discover the essential links and probabilities for the stocks’ transition through three states of stagnation, growth, and decline (i.e., stagnant, bull, and bear markets). The subject of analysis is a randomly selected portfolio of 20 shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The data suggest that the portfolio relatively quickly, in four trading days, achieves equilibrium probabilities that allow a certain amount of predictability of future movements. At the same time, when analyzing the expected time intervals for the first transition, we found that the portfolio returns to a state of growth much faster than a decline. In addition, the results negate the basic habits of frequent trading, herding, and taking a short position in events of negative price fluctuations. Our research contributes towards observing regularities and stock market efficiency with a clear goal of improving expectations and technical analysis for small individual investors.
Delivery pattern planning in retailing with transport and warehouse workload balancing
Authors: Alajkovic Adrian , Brcic Mario , Ivandic Viktorija , Bubalo Luka , Koncic Mihael , Kovac Mihael
Published: July 2022

Goods from warehouses must be scheduled in advance, prepared, routed, and delivered to shops. At least three systems directly interact within such a process: warehouse workforce scheduling, delivery scheduling, and routing system. Ideally, the whole problem with the preceding inventory management (restocking) would be solved in one optimization pass. In order to make the problem simpler, we first decompose the total problem by isolating the delivery scheduling. Then we connect the optimization model to the rest of the system by workload balancing goal that is a surrogate ofcoordination and criterion for the system robustness. This paper presents the practical application of top-down discrete optimization that streamlines operations and enables better reactivity to changes in circumstances. We search for repetitive weekly delivery patterns that balance the daily warehouse and transportation utilization in the absence of capacity constraints. Delivery patterns are optimized for the quality criteria regarding specific store-warehouse pair types, with a special focus on fresh food delivery that aims at reducing inventory write-offs due to aging. The previous setup included semimanual scheduling based on templates, historical prototypes, and domain knowledge. We have found that the system augmented with the new automated delivery scheduling system brings an improvement of 3% in the performance measure as well as speed in adjusting to the changes, such was the case with changes in policies during COVID-19 lockdowns.
JAPANESE INFLUENCE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF BRITISH-AMERICAN RELATIONS BEFORE AND AT THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD WAR II (1931 – 1940)
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Tkachuk Taras
Published: July 2022

The article examines the relationship between two leading countries – Great Britain and the United States, which had a significant impact on international political situation in the world in 1930s and still have nowadays. As a vector of research, the author takes the factor of the Japanese militaristic regime because of the rather similar current geopolitical situation due to the aggressive actions of Russian Federation. According to this, the author aimed to conduct a comprehensive analysis and his own assessment of the impact of Japan’s behavior in the international arena on the development of British-American relations in various fields. The chronological boundaries of the study are the period from the Mukden incident ‒ the beginning of Japanese invasion in the north-eastern part of China (September, 1931) to the conclusion of Berlin (Tripartite) Pact between Japan, Italy and Germany (September, 1940). Methodology: the article uses a comparative-historical method to compare and analyze the influence of Japan and Germany on the foreign policy of London and Washington, as well as descriptive method ‒ to identify the essence and features of British-American relations during 1931–1940. The use primarily of a wide base of diplomatic documents, archival sources from the F. D. Roosevelt Digital Library, cabinet papers of the British government allowed the author to apply the systematic approach and the principle of objectivity working with only verified facts and their comprehensive assessment. Scientific novelty: for the first time in Ukrainian historiography the author analyzed and rethought the process of how did Japan’s aggressive actions influence on US-British relations on the eve and beginning of World War II regarding the current geopolitical situation. The author concludes that the leadership of the United States and Great Britain did not realize the threat from Japan in time, that their inconsistent actions only contributed to the rapprochement of Tokyo with Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, culminating in the formation of a tripartite military alliance («axis»). According to the author, the ambiguity of the position of London and Washington caused primarily by the struggle for spheres of influence in the Pacific area and trade conflicts between them in general. In view of this, the article emphasizes the need for modern leading states, especially Great Britain and the USA, to take into account the mistakes of the past in order to prevent a repeat of the Japanese scenario in the international arena in future.
Detectability of Welding Imperfections in Non-Destructive PA and TOFD Ultrasonic Tests
Authors: Bednarek Borys , Jurkiewicz Rafał , Rzeźnikiewicz Agnieszka
Published: July 2022

The primary objective of the article was to compare the PA and TOFD ultrasonic technique-based detectability of internal imperfections in welded joints. The scope of tests involved the making of joints as well as the performance of ultrasonic, radiographic and macroscopic metallographic tests. The tests enabled the comparison of indications obtained in the tests with the actual location and the size of imperfections. The test results were then compared to identify the accuracy of each technique in relation to previously assumed measurement requirements (e.g. the depth at which a given imperfection was located, characteristic dimensions, offset from the weld axis, etc.)
Defectoscopic Tests of Railway Rails
Authors: Rawicki Łukasz
Published: July 2022

Non-destructive tests are of key importance as regards ensuring the safe operation of the railway track. Such tests enable the detection of discontinuities formed both during production and operation. However, due to their nature, non-destructive tests are characterised by certain limitations. Non-destructive tests are mostly indirect and the presence of discontinuities is inferred on the basis of specific physical phenomena. Through the detection and assessment of the nature of discontinuities, non-destructive testing methods provide information about the properties of objects subjected to examination. The article presents some of the methods (visual and ultrasonic tests) used in the examination of railway rails. The article also discusses unconventional testing methods, i.e. the method of magnetic flux leakage (MFL) and the measurement of the alternating current field.

Published: July 2022

Introduction. Currently, various hormonal preparations are used in assisted reproductive technology (ART) programs which allow to profoundly improve protocols for stimulating superovulation.

Aim: to comparatively analyze effectiveness of recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone preparations in in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer (ET) programs.

Materials and Methods. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of gonadotropic drugs, a retrospective analysis of 75 outpatient medical records after routine infertility treatment with IVF and ET programs using follitropin alfa (Gonal-F®), follitropin beta (Puregon®), biosimilar follitropin alfa (Primapur®) for ovarian stimulation was performed. Women examined were divided evenly into groups of 25 patients receiving each drug. The main efficiency indicators of IVF and PE cycles were as follows: the number of aspirated oocytes, the number of embryos obtained, the percentage of clinical pregnancy, as well as «Take Home Baby» parameter.

Results. The patients were comparable in age, hormonal status, major parameters of somatic and gynecological history, parity, and infertility factors. The maximum and minimum number of embryos on day 5, including “high quality” embryos was observed in the Primapur® group (4.24 ± 0.52), and the Puregon® group (2.76 ± 0.37), respectively. In the group of patients using Primapur®, the incidence of clinical pregnancy was 44.0 %, in the group using Gonal-f® – 48.0 %, and in the group using Puregon® – 44.0 %, that did not significant differed between groups (p > 0.05). While assessing the frequency of live births, no significant inter-group differences were found. «Take Home Baby» parameter was 52.0 % in the Gonal-f® group, 60.0 % in the Puregon® group (p > 0.05) that was insignificantly higher in the group of patients treated with biosimilar follitropin alfa (64.0 % ).

Conclusion. The new drug being a biosimilar follitropin alfa does not differ in clinical efficiency from other gonadotropins and can be used for controlled superovulation induction in ART programs.

The spread of COVID-19 over the past three years has posed difficult tasks for doctors related to rapid diagnosis and provision of highly qualified medical care to patients, including with co-infection ― SARS-CoV-2/human immunodeficiency virus.
The analysis of the combined course of COVID-19 and human immunodeficiency virus demonstrated the synergistic effect of SARS-CoV-2 and human immunodeficiency virus on the human body. Numerous studies have shown that COVID-19 is more severe and is accompanied by high mortality in older people and in the presence of comorbid pathology. Including important role belongs to diseases accompanied by suppression of cellular immunity, which lead to frequent complications and longer viremia, which can be observed with human immunodeficiency virus infection. The similarity of clinical, laboratory and radiological data does not allow to differentiate COVID-19 and human immunodeficiency virus opportunistic diseases with lung damage (pneumocystic pneumonia, cytomegalovirus and candidiasis etiology), in an early period, especially in patients without an established human immunodeficiency virus status.
Identification of the features of the course of the disease, alertness towards human immunodeficiency virus infection in patients admitted to the hospital with COVID-19 at a young age, the peculiarities of the epidemiological history will allow early diagnosis and improve management tactics.

The Value of Wellness-Related Courses in Higher Education
Authors: Pepin Kristen R. , Sawyer Jason C.
Published: July 2022

Background: General education curriculums provide students with knowledge and skills that empower them to engage in their communities and prepare them for life after graduation.  Furthermore, colleges and universities can establish campus culture and express their values through their general education curriculum. 
Aim: The aim of this article was to inspire faculty and administrators to reflect on the wellness culture present at their institution, specifically within their general education program.
Methods: The authors addressed the need for a campus-wide wellness-related general education course. Arguments against and benefits of such a course were presented, as were suggestions for future research.
Results: Wellness is a pertinent topic woven throughout our lives and the lives of our students.  Attending college offers students newfound independence and autonomy, as well as an opportunity to develop positive lifelong habits. A wellness-related course reinforces the holistic, interdisciplinary approach to general education and teaches the importance of healthy behaviors.
Conclusion: Although concerns surrounding institutional resources exist when considering the creation of a new campus-wide requirement, the potential improvements in academic performance, student retention, and health behaviors outweigh the challenges.

Making the Invisible Visible: Applying a Gender Perspective To Strengthen Tax Policy in Latin America and the Caribbean
Authors: Astudillo Karen , Fretes Cibils Vicente , Pessino Carola , Rossignolo Darío
Published: July 2022

Latin American and Caribbean countries have made efforts to ensure that fiscal policies do not cause biases toward women. However, depending on where the tax burden falls, taxes do create gender biases. This technical note has two purposes. First, it provides evidence of how womens economic participation, care responsibilities, and consumption patterns enter into a countrys tax systems, generating invisible biases. Second, it summarizes the main lessons learned through cross-country comparisons that analyze the impact of direct and indirect taxes on gender equality, the progressivity of the tax systems using both income and expenditure as welfare measures, and the impact of tax systems and tax reforms on households depending on their composition and across the income distribution. The note also provides policy recommendations and good practices that will add to the regions efforts to strengthen fiscal policy taking a gender perspective into account. There is no unique approach to achieving gender equity only through gender-sensitive fiscal policies; rather, the path to change will likely be highly dependent on the balance struck between differing political and economic factors and interests. However, should Latin American and the Caribbean countries take on this challenge, not only could they generate more revenue in the future, but the changes should contribute to sustained and inclusive growth, with greater gender equality.

Esta mirada permite una nueva interpretación de los elementos claves de este texto, junto con la relevancia del deseo y el miedo como emociones imperantes dentro del poema, así como la justificación del carácter cíclico de este.
La pandemia y la lógica exponencial
Authors: Gómez Jorge Luis
Published: July 2022

La pandemia puede ser observada por medio de la lógica de lo exponencial como un fenómeno de programación específica que cambió no solo cuantitativamente, sino también cualitativamente a la humanidad. Esta observación implica una transvaloración de lo real a lo aleatorio, quitando el valor moral, científico y religioso a lo real para volverlo puramente informático, estadístico y tendencial. Se tiene como resultado la caducidad de los opuestos isomorfos y un forzoso abandono de aspiraciones románticas, entre ellas, la libertad de lo individual. Esta lógica cibernética, que no proviene de una superestructura intersticial, es seductora y fascinante por su indeterminación. Se nutre de la gratuidad de información y la hiperconectividad de las personas para destruir el sentido del mundo y la realidad. La pandemia, inmisericorde, cruel e inhumana se plantea como parte de un simulacro de autorregulación basado en el terror y el caos. ¿La solución? Sumergirnos en la incertidumbre, y despedirnos de la nostalgia con la que vemos a una normalidad que no regresará.
