On The Bosons’ Range of the Weak Interaction
Authors: Puccini Antonio
Published: February 2019

As known the Weak Nuclear Force or Weak Interaction(WI) acts between quarks (Qs) and leptons. The action of the WI is mediated by highly massive gauge bosons. How does a nuclear Q emit such a massive particle, approximately 16000 or 40000 times its mass? Who provides so much energy to a up Q or a down Q? However, it must be considered that according to Quantum Mechanics it is possible to loan temporarily some energy, but to a precise and binding condition, established by the Uncertainty Principle: the higher the energy borrowed, the shorter the duration of the loan. Our calculations show that the maximum distance these bosons can travel, i.e. the upper limit of their range, corresponds to 1.543×10-15 [cm] for particles W+ and W- and 1.36×10-15[cm] for Z° particles.
The Lunar Problem is The Barrier of The Future Time of The Earth
Authors: Guimaraes Eduardo S
Published: February 2019

This article "The lunar problem is the barrier of the future time of the Earth" is a logical and rational analysis of the formation of the nuclear universe with galaxies, stars, the Sun star, the system of planets and the moons, and arrives at new original and inedited conclusions.

The Big Bang of the primitive universe is a sequence programmed by the nature of thermonuclear super explosions in sidereal space.

These thermonuclear super explosions swept nuclear sidereal space generating the large mass islands of galaxies like the Milky Way.

The Milky Way was the first generation of the hyper-bubbles of the mixture of nuclear masses, which are: geological nuclear mass of attraction of gravity; geological nuclear mass of orbital attraction; geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion.

Because of nuclear hyper tremors, the nucleus of the Milky Way generated the second generation of the super bubbles that were repulsed from the galaxy's nucleus by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then the super bubbles became in the many billions of celestial stars that make up the galactic disc.

Because of the hyper tremors, the nucleus of these billions of stars, including the Sun, generated the third generation of super bubbles and large bubbles that were repulsed from the nuclei of the stars by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then the super bubbles and large bubbles have become the sequence of planets, which makes up the orbital disk of the solar system.

Due to a small number of nuclear super tremors, the nucleus of the sequence of planets tremble, shook and generated the fourth generation of the small bubbles that were repulsed from the nucleus of the planetary sequence by the action of the geological nuclear mass of orbital repulsion, and then, the small bubbles have become the sequence of moons, which makes up the orbital disk of the planets.

And so, began the count the new time, after the sequence of Big Bang explosions.
Influence of Low Ti-Element Additions on The Microstructure, Melting Properties and Creep Behavior of Sn-Ag-Cu Lead Free Solders
Authors: Yassin Amal Mohamed , Afify Reda Ismail , Khalifa Berlent
Published: February 2019

Sn-3.5wt.%Ag-0.5wt.%Cu is one of the alloys considered for replacing SnPb solder alloys in electronic ambiance. In the present study, the effect of minor additions of Ti (0.25, 0.5, 1.0 wt.%) on the microstructure, creep and thermal properties of Sn-3.5wt.%Ag-0.5wt.%Cu lead free solder alloy are investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), creep tests and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermal tests. Results showed that the addition of different wt.% of Ti refined the grain size of the solder alloys. The microstructure parameters obtained from x-ray analysis represented by lattice parameters (a,c), axial ratio (c/a), residual strains (?a/a? & ?c/c?), peak height intensities and crystallite size of some crystallographic planes were found to be sensitive to Ti - additions, applied stresses and working temperatures. The morphological studies using SEM showed refinements of Ag3Sn, Cu6Sn5 and Ti2Sn3 (IMCs) in ?-Sn matrix. Thermal analysis showed that Ti - additions slightly affect melting temperature and pastry range. In terms of creep behavior the addition of 1wt.%Ti gave the highest creep resistance with respect to the others, due to fine dispersion of IMCs. The stress exponents (n) and the activation energies (Q) indicated that the dominant creep mechanism is dislocation climb over all temperature ranges
Review on Dermatophytes Highlighting the Status at National and International Level: A Critical Appraisal.
Authors: Marwal Avinash , Meena Surendra , Chandra Subhash , Sharma Dr. Anima
Published: February 2019

Dermatophytes as the name suggest are the fungus that feed on skin. The chief source of their growth is keratin which is widely available in skin, nails and hairs and causes disease in animals and humans due to their ability to obtain nutrients from keratinized material. The organisms colonize the keratin tissues and inflammation is caused by host response to metabolic byproducts. They are usually restricted to the nonliving cornified layer of the epidermis because of their inability to penetrate viable tissue of an immunocompetent host.
An Empirical Model of Students Satisfaction and Service Quality of Jahangirnagar University
Authors: Hossain Moyazzem
Published: February 2019

Satisfaction is a state felt by a person who has experienced performance or an outcome that fulfill his or her expectation and service quality is an important parameter of educational excellence. This study attempts to examine the relationship between service quality dimensions (tangibility, responsiveness, reliability, assurance and empathy) and students’ satisfaction. The results exhibit that there is a significant correlation among all the constructs with student satisfaction at 1% level of significance. The results also depict that the tangibles factor is the most important factor which includes a group of statements related to the environment and facilities provided by the university. Therefore, this paper will be helpful for institutions in order to enhance the quality of educational services.

Authors: Rodríguez Nieto Ma. Concepción , Himénez-Sanchez Oswaldo , Peña-Moreno José Armando , Ibarra-González Víctor Hugo
Published: February 2019

The aim of the study was to analyze the perception of quality of life in the work of janitor employees. The design was descriptive with a mixed approach. The 11 janitor workers of a Faculty of a public university participated and they responded individually to a questionnaire. In addition, eight of them participated in semi-structured interviews where the theme of study was addressed. The results showed that janitor workers have a high general perception of the quality of life at work associated with a high level of subjective wellbeing and satisfaction with work, good health and social interaction with coworkers, boss and members of the organization. For all janitor workers, the family is a great motivator and support in their daily lives and works. However, a work-family imbalance was found that women perceive greater than men.

Suicide in Kerala, India A Critical Analysis
Authors: Nair Lekshmi V
Published: February 2019

In India, the state of Kerala is considered as Gods own country. This Southern most state of India was cited by Amartya Sen as the model of Development, which shines in various aspects like literacy, secularism, technological pursuits, life expectancy and political upsurge.  At the same time it bears impediments with respect to unemployment among educated youth, alcoholism, divorce and family breakdown. Despite these, another factor that can be added to the dread list is the spiralling suicide rate. The latest figures from the National Crime Records Bureau show that 8,431 people killed themselves during 2010; the State accounted for 6.2 per cent of the total number of suicides in the country. The NCRB data also showed that the national average suicide rate was 11.2 per lakh population during 2010, which was marginally lower than 11.4 per lakh population during 2009 (NCRB Report 2010). Though Keralas per centage share has come down, there has been an increase in the rate of suicide from 24.6 per lakh population in 2009 to 25.3 per lakh population in 2010 which is two times higher than national average; which means one suicide per hour. In fact, 2010 has had the dubious distinction of having witnessed the highest number of suicides in the last five years (NCRB reports 2010). Police sources add that 36 cases of suicide have already registered in the first two months of the current year. For each completed suicide there are 20 times more suicidal attempts. Each suicide, on an average leaves 20 times more people in severe distress (NCRB 2011). Maithri, an NGO in Kerala says that around 100 people attempt suicide every day in Kerala, of whom 25 are successful. More men kill themselves than women, the ratio being 7:3 and 80 per cent of the suicides are by those in the 15 to 59 age group.
ICT enabled Technologies issues in implementation (especially in perspective of Uttrakhand Rural Areas)
Authors: Saxena Abhay
Published: February 2019

Information Communication & Technology makes the entire world a Global Village. The high speed connectivity, communication and technology are turn out to be a magic wand for the human progress and prosperity. But it looks so that this progress is confined with the virtual villages like metros and cities. The semi urban and villages looks far behind from the actuality i.e. implementation of ICT. This Paper is not a critic on the Government efforts. It is merely a survey report to put a thought on the efforts inadequacy, unable to reach up to grass root level. The current study will provide a microscopic view of the ground reality of villages especially in Hardwar district and show reasons why implementation of ICT is not effective over there. The probable solution of implementation of ICT is also worked out in the end.
Islamic insurance in Tunisia: fiction or reality?
Authors: Gouider Jihene Jebeniani , Gafsi Nesrine
Published: February 2019

The paper tests the effects of attitude, subjective norm and the quality of information about Islamic insurance demand. Inspired by the theory of reasoned action (TRA), this study proposes a model to examine the factors in the Islamic context of the application of insurance. The model is tested using data from a survey of 100 respondents. The results suggest that attitude, subjective norm and the quality of information available should be considered essential in determining the demand for Islamic insurance factors. The results of this study highlight the level of consumer acceptance of Islamic insurance. It also provides valuable information for operators to manage Takaful Islamic insurance services effectively.
THEORATICAL FRAMEWORK TO UNDERSTAND THE ASSOCIATION OF ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE ON THE ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT
Authors: Sofat Kanika , Kiran Dr.Ravi
Published: February 2019

The organization change is defined as the adoption of new ideas or behavior by an organization. The mainobjective of organizational change is to maximize the benefits of the people involved in the process and to minimize the risk involved in the failure of implementing and managing change. Organization commitment of the employees is an intangible asset for an organization so as to derive strategic advantage over competitors. It is a psychological link between the employee and his organization. If the employees lack commitment it willlead to increase in absenteeism and affecting labor turnover. The commitment employees will hence ease stressduring organizational change process and will understand and cope with change so as to make it successful. The paper helps to understand the organizational change initiatives undertaken in the organizations. It further helpsto examine the relationship between change management and organization commitment in organizations.Keywords: Organizational change, Change levers, Organizational change initiatives, organization commitment

Authors: Shehu Abdullahi
Published: February 2019

Financial remittances facilitate human capital formation by improving access to education andhealth; an increase in investments and reduction in poverty especially for recipient households. Also, remittancesserve as a critical source of foreign exchange for the national accounts and they promote macroeconomic stability. It has been estimated that remittances are now more than double the size of net official flows, and are second toForeign Direct Investment (FDI) as source of external finance for developing countries. To derive maximum benefitsand forestall the misuse of remittance channels for the purposes of concealing the proceeds of crime, it is crucial toadopt and enforce effective anti-money laundering and counter financing of terrorism measures of acceptableinternational standards. This paper examines the importance of payments and foreign remittances systems; anddrawing lessons from the mutual evaluation of countries in West Africa, concludes that effective and efficientcompliance can only be achieved with a strong commitment of the industry to enforce self regulation. Other measuresto enhance the efficiency of the payments and remittances systems are also recommended.
USING THE VIDEO ANALYSIS IN AEROBIC GYMNASTICS
Authors: Napolitano Salvatore
Published: February 2019

The Aerobic Gymnastics is a complex sport and the movements are performed continuously, intensely at high speed with the musical accompaniment. One can directly assess the overall performance to the naked eye, but is not able to assess the individual elements of movement and technical aspects. The video analysis indirectly, through the ability to stop and review the various stages of movement several times, facilitates the evaluation. The aim of this study is to verify whether the use of video analysis in daily training activities can facilitate the evaluations of the coaches. 4 female athletes will be evaluated using the tabs in the Code of Points with annotations for deductions (0.10 slight error, mean error 0:20, 0:50 fault) and after 30 sessions in two different ways. The athletes are divided into two groups:

1) Control which continues to be evaluated with the traditional forms,

2) Experimental which is evaluated through the use of two cameras, which apply the points of repelle on specific anatomical points.

At the end all the athletes will be traditionally evaluated and one will compare the assessments to highlight the difference between the two groups. The athletes in the experimental group improved at 0.30 and 0.40 compared to initial assessments made without the video analysis and compared to the control group. The experimental group compared with the control group has a better final evaluations in the matter of execution and cleanliness of the gesture. Probably the rapidity of correction of the act requested by the coach after watching the video and the subsequent execution of the athlete support proper execution. This new training methodology may be also tested on athletes, in order to allow a self-assessment through the measurement of the movie and the subsequent correction of performance so that it can better understand the errors committed and implicitly suggest the correction. The simultaneous use of video analysis by athletes and coaches during the training could further improve the result.
Citizen participation and ecological diagnosis in two Mesoamerican Reef System Natural Protected Areas:Mexico and Honduras
Authors: Gutierrez-Castro Adriana Isabel , González-Solís Alicia , Torruco Daniel
Published: February 2019

Community participation in sustainable development projects is minimal or lacking in the natural protected areas (NPA) of Central America. Fifteen years after the Mesoamerican Reef System was implemented as an international conservation strategy, a study was done to determine local population interest in reef conservation in San Miguel de Cozumel, Mexico, and West End Village, Honduras. An evaluation was also done of coral health in nearby, heavily used reefs. Lack of community participation is linked to low levels of information, education and training, although 90% of interviewees agreed to participate in a contingent proposal involving financing of coral reef conservation activities. Participants exhibited a willingness-to-pay an average of 10% of income spent on basic food needs or the national minimum wage. Their willingness stemmed from the use value of the reefs as a tourist attraction and from their being a primary income source.Among non-use values, ensuring the well-being of their children (i.e. legacy value) was the most frequently stated followed by conserving reefs because they are a natural system (i.e. existence value). The reef coral health indicated some degree of reef deterioration compared to indicator values for the Mesoamerican Reef System. Greater community participation in NPA management and administration will require NPA authorities to develop tools for community interaction and to prove the effectiveness of their actions.
Enriching the Theory of Factor Pricing and Income Distribution in Islamic Perspective
Authors: Dariah AtihRohaeti , Sundaya Yuhka , Malik Zaini Abdul
Published: February 2019

The paper aims to elaborate  the theory of factor pricing and income distribution in Islamic perspective. We place Sadeqs thought as the benchmark and expand it. Using calculus differential, we construct factor pricing and income distribution under mudharabah scheme, which can describe the behavior of producer (mudhaarib) in making decision on business operation appropriately. The paper can prove mathematically that when Islamic principles are internalized, income distribution becomes more equal. This is expressed in parameters s, 1-s, and 1/1-s, as a share of profit goes to capital owner (shahibulmaal), entrepreneur (mudhaarib) and worker, respectively. The paper also proposes that wage level will be determined not only by perception or the mind set of capital owners and workers on the value of their assets, but also the standing moral of entrepreneurs and capital owners.

Global Citizenship Education at a Dutch University College: Latin American Liberation Psychology informing the construction of the other and the self
Authors: Weistra Sabina , Park Eri , Sklad Marcin
Published: February 2019

The Going Glocal project, run at University College Roosevelt (Utrecht University) in the years 2013-2014, has the aim of providing students with more knowledge to reflect about issues of global justice in a society shaped by processes of globalisation and cosmopolitanisation, and thus an increased interconnectedness. Fifteen students attended courses on Global Justice and Activism in Mexico and Global Citizenship and went on a fieldtrip to Mexico during the summer. To answer the questions did the students self-other conceptualisation change? two out of the ten interviews conducted between September and January 2014 at UCR are analysed in the light of Social Identity and Social Representation Theory. The participants, who acquired knowledge about Latin American theory and encountered members of the Zapatistas movement, constructed the other and approached the issues of taking responsibility and knowledge from very different perspectives, thus displaying the diversity of the impact this project had on its participants.
ON-LINE POLITICS AND VOTING: OVERCOMING THE DEMOCRATIC DEFICIT
Authors: Pendarovski Stevo , Pachovski Veno , Andonov Marko , Mihajloski Zoran , Cavdar Kimo
Published: February 2019

The advance of digital technology in the field of politics in the last 20 years has raised the expectations about enhancing the potentials of the long dominant model of representative democracy. The need to reinvigorate the overall political process was talked about since the first signs of decline in the civic engagement in the second half of the past century. In the meantime, technological gadgets, and, especially the great versatility of Internet applicability have indeed contributed for better communication between the political elites and their people and for sharing the information on the unprecedented level. Yet, the key challenge still seems barely touched: how to provide meaningful participation of the politically awakened individuals in the decision-making processes within the states. In the article we offer a brief survey of the European and USA achievements in the field of e-voting and Internet-voting in order to show how the political, technical and security concerns are still prevailing in the debates thus undermining the trust in the new modes of casting the votes. Also, we present the results of the survey done with 120 students in the Republic of Macedonia and their considerations about the eventual Internet voting in the country. Applying the descriptive and analytical methods we would argue that the immense possibilities for using Internet in politics are far from being exploited, so the initial miscalculation and failures should not discourage the communities from observing new pathways for improving the unavoidable digital component of democracy.
Creative Reconstruction: A Systematic Approach to Reinventing Large Cities in Democratic Republic of Congo
Authors: Misilu Eric Mia Nsokimieno
Published: February 2019

The current state of large cities in Democratic Republic of Congo highlights the necessity of reinventing cities. More than fifty years after the independence, these major cities, like Kinshasa the capital city, are in a state of are in a state of disrepair. They are damaged, dysfunctional, and more vulnerable. Today, these legacy cities do not meet the international requirements of livable cities. Democratic Republic of Congo faces the challenge of rebuilding its cities for sustainability. The movement for independence of African countries enabled the shift from colonial cities to legacy cities. It is important to understand the cultural and ideological foundations of colonial city. Commonly, colonial cities served as purpose-built settlements for the extraction and transport of mineral resources toward Europe. What's required is a creative reconstruction to achieve a desired successful urban change. Creative reconstruction tends to ensure urban transformation in relation with urbanization, by making continuous and healthy communities. Creative reconstruction seems appropriate way of building back cities in harmony with cultural values. The article provides a framework for urban regeneration. The study is based on principle of thinking globally and acting locally in building back better cities.
FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE BY TEACHERS IN SCHOOLS: A STUDY OF MASVINGO DISTRICT SECONDARY SCHOOLS
Authors: Simuforosa Magwa , Rosemary Ngara
Published: February 2019

Learners are at risk of sexual abuse by teachers. This study set to explore the perceptions of learners, teachers and educational psychologists on child sexual abuse in schools. The study is informed by Maslows hierarchy of needs. In an attempt to provide acceptable answers to research problem the qualitative phenomenology design was employed and semi-structured interviews were used to collect the data. Purposive sampling was used to select schools and participants in Masvingo district. The schools selected were 4 and participants were 19 Accepted ethical measures were adhered to during the study. Teschers open coding method of data analysis was used to identify themes and categories. The study found out that child sexual abuse in schools is rampant and that teachers are among the perpetrators of this abuse. Child sexual abuse was said to fall into two categories namely; contact or non -contact sexual behaviour. According to the results of the study multiple factors cause teachers to sexually abuse. Some of these factors include abuse of power by teachers, poverty of learners, lust on the part of the teacher, and disregard of law by teacher. Students were said to be contributors of their own sexual abuse through their seductive behaviours and dressing. In light of these findings recommendations are made with regards to the need for how various stakeholders in the school namely; the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education, Zimbabwe, policy makers, school heads, teachers, parents and learners to thoroughly understand the forms and root causes of child sexual abuse so as to be able to fight this scourge.
Global Citizenship and The Notion of Moral Emotions: Cognitive Polyphasia in Processes of Self-Other Constructions
Authors: Park Eri , Sklad Marcin
Published: February 2019

In the past, little attention has been paid to the socio-psychological dimension of the phenomenon of severe poverty in Africa. Despite the institutional nature of the global economic order, including policies of the European Union, the World Trade Organisation, and the International Monetary Fund, it is people who design, support, and maintain this system, and individual constructions of the world and structural inequalities reinforce one another. This also finds its expression in different ways in, e.g., peoples social representations of severe poverty in Europes former colonies (Park, 2008, 2011). This article investigates, how we members of the European middle class construct ourselves as ethical beings in the context of African poverty: What is the link between our social representations, identity construction and (in)action with regard to severe poverty in Africa? What are the discursive mechanisms we apply in the construction of an ethical self and what is the notion of the African Other? In a nutshell: What do our social represenations make us do

Challenges in Saudi Universities Shift Toward a Knowledge Society
Authors: Alshayea Ali S.
Published: February 2019

Higher education in Saudi Arabia is facing several challenges posed by a set of transformations in society in general, and the economy in particular. As economies become increasingly knowledge-based, universities bear the burden of helping the community transform into a knowledge society. This paper focuses on the most important challenges facing Saudi universities as they shift toward becoming contributors to a knowledge society. Using a descriptive analytical approach, data was collected from several studies and published statistics. A range of challenges was discovered, the most important of them are a heavy reliance on government funding, poor productivity of faculty members, the gap between the outputs of universities and the labor market, the absence of strategic planning for higher education, the absence of a national strategy for scientific research, and the weakness of the relationship between undergraduate majors and the needs of the community.
AIR POLLUTION IN ZIMBABWE: AN ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH CHALLENGE
Authors: MAPIRA JEMITIAS
Published: February 2019

Air pollution is a major environmental problem in industrialized countries such as: the USA, China, Japan and most European countries including: France, Germany, Italy and the UK. One of its major causes is modern technology which depends heavily on fossil fuels (coal and oil) and dates back to the Industrial Revolution, which started some two centuries ago. Although the level of industrialization is quite low in developing countries such as Zimbabwe, air pollution is now posing a threat to the nations environmental security. This paper examines the problem of air pollution in Zimbabwe with a view to suggesting possible solutions. While previous researches have given brief and rather superficial accounts on the problem, this paper seeks to provide an in-depth study on the issue for the benefit of researchers, stakeholders and policy makers. The paper examines issues such as: causes, sources, health impacts, and possible solutions within the legislative and policy framework of Zimbabwe.Based on information that was collected in August 2014, the paper shows that air pollution is a major environmental problem and should be addressed seriously at both local and national levels.

The Role of Personal Values and Empathy in a Cooperative Game
Authors: LV Jieyu , Proulx Michael J. , Osman Magda
Published: February 2019

Are the personal values of others a relevant cue when thinking about cooperating, and do values matter more than empathizing with others? To address these questions, the present study presented participants (N = 120) with the details of personal values (social values [e.g., family, friends] or economic values [e.g., phone, bike]) held by fictitious players of a linear public goods game (PGG). In addition, half those tested were induced to empathize with the other players via presenting perspective-taking instructions (empathy induction), and the other half were not. For those that believed they were interacting with real players in a cooperative game (n=70) values did indeed matter. Participants acted more cooperatively in the Social Value condition as compared to the Economic Value condition when there was empathy induction. While empathy induction (perspective-taking instructions) made little difference to levels of cooperation, it did reduce the use of the tit-for-tat strategy in the game. These findings present some challenges to recent work promoting the role of empathy in pro-social behaviors

Una evidencia queer: trabajo sexual y metodologías afectivas.
Authors: Rodríguez Juana María
Published: February 2019

Este artículo investiga dos libros que combinan fotografía con testimonios biográficos para documentar un albergue para trabajadoras sexuales de la tercera edad en Ciudad de México, Casa Xochiquetzal. La yuxtaposición de biografía y fotografía suscita nuevos interrogantes en nuestra investigación sobre la representación de la subjetividad sexual y las prácticas interpretativas que desplegamos para investigarlas. Este artículo se plantea los modos en que diferentes formas de documentación biográfica problematizan productivamente nuestros encuentros con las representaciones estéticas de la sexualidad; y cómo la presencia corporal del sujeto complica sus testimonios vitales. Este proyecto responde con la propuesta de una metodología queer que descompone las evidencias para valorar lo afectivo como un modo de enlazar con la alteridad.
To Breathe-Zone of Zero. Kimsooja.
Authors: Gutiérrez Reyes Cintia
Published: February 2019

CAC Málaga. Del 7 de octubre de 2016 al 8 de enero de 2017.Desde el 7 de octubre y hasta el 8 de enero la artista coreana Kimsooja ocupa el espacio central del Centro de Arte Contemporáneo de Málaga con una instalación Lotus: Zone Cero, que insta a yacer horizontalmente para contemplar un universo de farolillos. La artista conceptual transforma la sala de una forma sutil, casi imperceptible, dando al espectador la posibilidad de transitar un suelo vacío, en silencio, que invita al recogimiento, al aislamiento y a la utilización del espacio expositivo como santuario. Para entender este proceso de conversión, resulta fundamental el sonido de cantos gregorianos, tibetanos o de llamadas a la oración de la pieza To Breathe, que resuena en ese «Espacio Cero». La artista activista Kimsooja (Daegu, Corea del Sur, 1957), nos tiene acostumbrados a este tipo de intervenciones donde imperceptiblemente el espacio se transforma mediante pequeños actos. Un lugar reconocido que vuelve a presentársenos lleno de una carga poética, conceptual y social que nos activa las percepciones sensoriales o la imaginación. Quizá porque basa su obra en esa dialéctica que parte de lo propio, sus raíces tradicionales de la cultura coreana, para dialogar con lo universal, la preocupación por el papel de la mujer, la religión, la identidad o el nomadismo.
Ruiz Artola, Inés: Formis´ci, la síntesis de la modernidad (1917-1922). Conexiones y protagonistas.
Authors: Martín López David
Published: February 2019

Libargo (2015), responde claramente a un estudio pormenorizado de un aspecto de las vanguardias artísticas europeas que ha pasado apenas desapercibido por la historiografía española: la revista polaca Formisci (1919-1921), precursora del arte moderno en Centro Europa. La autora, Inés Ruiz Artola, doctora en Historia del Arte por la Universidad de Málaga, es una profunda conocedora de las vanguardias artísticas polacas y de la revista Formisci, que como indica en su subtítulo fue una perfecta síntesis de la modernidad (1917-1922). A esta formación histórico-artística se añade la lingüística, que ha permitido traducir textos polacos inéditos en castellano que facilitan un análisis nuevo y dotan al libro de un interés documental importante, que servirá para estudios posteriores del movimiento formista y de sus principales actores.
Blasco Esquivias, Beatriz: Introducción al arte barroco. El gran teatro del mundo.
Authors: De Antonio Trinidad
Published: February 2019

Como la propia autora indica en la introducción de este libro, los estudios dedicados al Barroco hasta la fecha son innumerables y enriquecedores, pero, a pesar de ello, el análisis y conocimiento de este periodo del arte occidental sigue siendo apasionante por la pluralidad de su propia esencia, a la vez dirigida y diversa, simultáneamente reglada y «trastornada». La profesora Blasco basa su texto en un novedoso y audaz planteamiento: una mirada de conjunto sobre la complejidad del Barroco, que nos hace inteligible en su variedad y en su universalidad cambiante. La autora afronta esta tarea con profundo conocimiento del tema y con inteligente enfoque, logrando su propósito a lo largo de ocho capítulos, en los que se ajusta a la reducida extensión de los textos de la colección, problema añadido a la dificultad de su empeño. Sin embargo, en el obligado breve contenido del libro radica uno de sus logros: permite al lector adentrarse con rapidez en lo que es el auténtico carácter del Barroco, en el fundamento de su esencia y su desarrollo, proponiendo ejemplos y definiendo rasgos, pero superando esquemas generalistas y descripciones forzosamente reiterativas. Blasco nos acerca también a las claves de esta etapa artística y a la multiplicidad de su definición formal, a la vez que consigue trasmitir que el Barroco es un arte a la medida del individuo, dedicado a la captación de la voluntad y a la conquista de las almas con variados propósitos: su salvación, su sometimiento a los poderes establecidos o su búsqueda de un renovado camino.
Juan Daniel Fullaondo y la crítica de arquitectura. Apuntes sobre la evolución de su escritura entre 1967 y 1975
Authors: Pérez-Moreno Lucía C.
Published: February 2019

Este artículo analiza los escritos de Juan Daniel Fullaondo sobre arquitectura. Ser director de la revista Nueva Forma entre 1967 y 1975 fue esencial para que sus escritos fuesen publicados con asiduidad permitiéndole evolucionar en su actividad reflexiva. El diálogo establecido entre su crítica y la obra arquitectónica o artística tratada muestra una clara evolución desde una crítica positiva o «universitaria» hacia una «crítica de interpretación», siguiendo la terminología de Roland Barthes. En este proceso de evolución el escultor Jorge Oteiza asume un papel sobresaliente al ser blanco y motor de la evolución de la crítica de Fullaondo.
Los Campos Elíseos de Zaragoza: un sitio de recreo urbano para la sociedad decimonónica
Authors: Vázquez Astorga Mónica
Published: February 2019

En este texto nos centramos en el estudio de los Campos Elíseos de Zaragoza, que fue un lugar de recreo público establecido en 1868 en el paseo de Torrero (actual paseo de Sagasta), cerca del puente del río Huerva, teniendo como referencia los instalados en otras ciudades europeas en esa centuria. Fue concebido como un espacio para la diversión y sociabilidad cívicas, en el que se ofrecía una amplia variedad de espectáculos y formas de entretenimiento que eran la moda de ese momento: conciertos, obras de teatro, zarzuelas, bailes y áreas de paseo. Igualmente, fue un elemento indispensable en el proceso de construcción de modernidad urbana en esta ciudad. Su desaparición tuvo lugar a finales del siglo XIX, aunque su terreno fue utilizado para otros fines hasta la década de los treinta cuando se proyectó el edificio Elíseos (paseo de Sagasta, núms. 2 y 4, esquina con Gran Vía).

Authors: Rivas Romero Miguel Ángel
Published: February 2019

Arropado por una editorial de reconocido prestigio y rigor académico, Antonio Santos se atreve a mirar la historia del arte del cine de forma transversal, perdiendo la profundidad de campo propia de la monografía, en favor de un mayor ángulo de visión temático: las utopías y sus múltiples representaciones fílmicas…

Reconfigurations of the classical hero in the digital age: Aaron Sorkin’s The Social Network and Steve Jobs.
Authors: Frago Marta
Published: February 2019

The movies The Social Network (David Fincher, 2010) and Steve Jobs (Danny Boyle, 2015) are biographies of two outstanding figures in the digital revolution: the young multimillionaire Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook co-founder and CEO, and the famous co-founder and executive chairman of Apple, Steve Jobs. Written by the renowned screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, what these two movies have in common is that they present different orders or layers of meaning, allowing us to see beyond the life of the protagonists in the interpretation. Sorkin, in both stories, delves deeply into the psychological characteristics of the geniuses. In addition, in both cases, he creates a dramatic character, which can be identified with archetypes and familiar figures from western narrative, the tragic hero and the narcissist. But additionally, he shows these characters as icons of our times and through them presents a reflection on nowadays and the impact the digital revolution has had in the last few decades.

Authors: García Peña M.A.
Published: February 2019

Analizar y comprender los componentes del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje  (E-A) en la clase de Educación Física realizada entre docentes y escolares de una institución educativa de Medellín, es la intención de esta investigación cualitativa y con el enfoque etnográfico particularista, permitió evidenciar a través de las voces de los participantes sus percepciones sobre el tema en cuestión. La información obtenida se recolecto a través de las técnicas investigativas tales como: Observación participante, entrevistas y talleres.     El análisis se realizó bajo codificación abierta y axial, en la categoría de la metodología del proceso (E-A). Como resultado de la indagación, quedo claro que en la clase de Educación Física se concreta el quehacer docente, entendido como una integralidad entre saberes y vivencias, donde el quehacer debe tener: un inicio -la planeación, un desarrollo- las estrategias de enseñanza aprendizaje y un final- la evaluación.Los momentos y espacios para la planeación deberían ser de acuerdo a los objetivos y necesidades de los escolares establecidos en un diseño curricular, durante el desarrollo de la clase el docente debe tener claro los objetivos planeados, cuales debería ser sus herramientas metodológicas para la orientación adecuada y pertinente de la asignatura, y para finalizar el proceso formativo, es pertinente clarificar los elementos desarrollados en la sesión que serán valorados al finalizar cada encuentro, que sirven de insumos para el  momento evaluativo.Los hallazgos en este trabajo dan cuenta de visiones parcializadas durante la construcción de la planeación como su ejecución, así mismo de las diferentes formas de evaluar los procesos, lo que deja entrever una nueva indagación hacia el desarrollo metodológico de la enseñanza.
El falso amanecer: un informe y una hipótesis urgentes sobre la recepción de Naguib Mahfuz en castellano
Authors: Peña Martín Salvador
Published: February 2019

La concesión, en 1998,  del Premio Nóbel de Literatura a Naguib Mahfuz ha desencadenado un proceso de recepción sin precedentes para la literatura árabe contemporánea y el castellano. El número de obras traducidas, que muchas hayan sido publicadas por editoriales poderosas o de prestigio, su repercusión en la prensa diaria o el hecho de que dos novelas hayan dado lugar a sendas adaptaciones cinematográficas (muy reconocidas) en México; todo eso parece estar en disonancia con el bajo nivel de calidad de muchas de las traducciones realizadas y con el trato crítico especializado de que ha sido objeto la obra de Mahfuz (incomprensión, menosprecio, instrumentalización para otros fines).Después de inducir una norma de traducción (con vigencia para los consumidores de literatura traducida) y ensayar un procedimiento de clasificación de desajustes en la traducción, proponemos para explicar la disonancia antedicha la hipótesis de que Mahfuz es un tratadista del agotamiento de la modernidad.
La evolución de la aforística francesa y su comparación con la española: recepción y traducción
Authors: Verdegal Joan
Published: February 2019

El presente artículo aborda la evolución histórica en Francia y en España (siglos XVII al XX) del subgénero literario conocido con el nombre de aforismos (máximas, sentencias, reflexiones y apotegmas). El objetivo es triple: establecer comparaciones sobre su vigencia y pervivencia en ambos contextos literarios, desvelar el grado de penetración de los aforismos franceses en España (tanto en sus aspectos cronológicos como sociológicos) y proponer campos de investigación que permitan iniciar un proceso de traducción y reciprocidad en ambas literaturas.

Waterborne Phytophthora Species Occurrence and Diversity in the Valley of the Rák Brook
Authors: Sárándi-Kovács Judit , Szabó Ilona , Lakatos Ferenc
Published: February 2019

This paper reports on a two-year monitoring of Phytophthora species occurring in the catchment area of the Rák Brook near Sopron. P. gonapodyides, P. lacustris, P. plurivora and P. pseudosyringae were found in the course of surveys completed in the vegetation period of 2011 and 2012. Diversity profiles and cluster analysis were calculated in order to compare the Phytophthora communities detected at different sites and times. Seasonal differences were observed in the species compositions. Temperature data and basic hydrological parameters were found to determine the presence or absence of waterborne Phytophthora species in the catchment area of the Rák Brook. Pathogenicity of the Phytophthora species discovered was confirmed and evaluated against sessile oak seedlings.
