Authors: Benhumea González Laura Elizabeth , Capera Figueroa José Javier
Published: February 2023

La democracia se ha constituido en uno de los temas de gran interés y debate para las ciencias sociales, y particularmente para el campo de la sociología política en América Latina. Los cambios culturales, sociales, económicos y políticos que ha tenido la esfera pública, se han convertido en un espacio epistémico encargado de reconfigurar las relaciones sociopolíticas que existen entre la ciudadanía y el Estado en el marco de los procesos endógenos y exógenos que constituyen la democracia. Así pues, el propósito del presente artículo consiste en realizar un breve análisis sobre la capacidad de movilización y reivindicación social, económica, política y cultural que ha realizado el movimiento social indígena colombiano, en su alternativa popular por establecer un proyecto de paz subalterno desde y con los de abajo. Al mismo tiempo se pretende, reconocer los procesos interculturales de senti-pensar y construir la paz desde las comunidades indígenas al interior de sus territorios. Con el fin de cumplir con los propósitos de la investigación, se desarrolló un trabajo de corte cualitativo documental, en el que se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica actualizada del tema y se utilizó el método descriptivo para desarrollar los principales conceptos de la investigación.
Chomsky y el discurso retórico de la política estadounidense
Authors: Quiroz Pavón Martín
Published: February 2023

Para Noam Chomsky, filósofo estadunidense, su país, desde su nacimiento histórico (siglo xviii), se ha presentado ante el mundo con un discurso que lo muestra como el último heredero de los grandes ideales de la tradición iluminista y liberal. No obstante, este discurso está plagado de una serie de conceptos y términos retóricos que sirven para ir manipulando paulatinamente las mentes del público de su propio país y, en extensión, la opinión mundial. Para lograrlo, el sistema político se ha servido de prácticamente de todos los elementos a su disposición. El problema que subyace a todo esto es una cuestión netamente de distribución de la riqueza y el poder: al público no se le puede decir quiénes son los que verdaderamente mandan en la nación (oligarcas), a ellos se les debe hacer sentir y pensar que el gobierno está al servicio de los intereses del hombre común y corriente.
La teoría organizacional en la Administración Pública: ¿una ciencia administrativa, ciencia organizacional o ciencia política?
Authors: Sánchez González José Juan
Published: February 2023

El objetivo del artículo es describir las implicaciones que ha tenido la teoría organizacional dentro de la administración pública como disciplina científica a lo largo de su desarrollo teórico. Tiene el carácter de exploratorio para reflexionar sobre las implicaciones de los estudios organizacionales en el campo diverso de la administración pública. Mediante la investigación documental en la revisión del estado del arte de dicha teoría, se pueden identificar tres consideraciones teóricas o supuestos a comprobar: 1) la teoría organizacional tiene un principio de unicidad, es decir, su conocimiento es aplicable a la administración pública y privada, por lo que se concibe como ciencia administrativa; 2) la teoría organizacional es una ciencia organizacional por el hecho de que tiene aplicación genérica en toda clase de organizaciones sin distinción entre públicas o privadas; 3) la teoría organizacional que parte del supuesto de la complejidad y naturaleza política de la administración pública, diferenciada de la privada, puede generar una ciencia política con énfasis organizacional. Esta última postura, supone que la administración pública tiene elementos organizacionales en su contexto de ciencia política, lo que puede enriquecer su carácter interdisciplinario.

Published: February 2023

El artículo tiene por objetivo analizar el diseño y desempeño del Sistema Nacional de Cambio Climático en lo referente a sus relaciones intergubernamentales; espacio interinstitucional adecuado para atender problemas complejos en el marco del federalismo. El texto considera que, atendiendo su diseño, la congruencia del Sistema Nacional de Cambio Climático con sus documentos y normatividad de orientación intergubernamental permite políticas comunes, acciones concertadas y mayor gobernabilidad en la atención de sus problemas públicos. Por el contrario, el predominio del Gobierno Federal inhibe estrategias armónicas y resta posibilidades de éxito en la gestión pública. El análisis de basa en los documentos que el propio Sistema ha generado en sus sesiones de trabajo, así como en las evaluaciones que ha formulado respecto a su desempeño. A partir de las conclusiones que apuntan su debilidad para desarrollar relaciones intergubernamentales productivas y políticas públicas conjuntas, propone una serie de alternativas a los retos identificados.

Authors: Vicenço Camila Bonatto , Silvestre Wendel Paulo , Pauletti Gabriel Fernandes
Published: February 2023

The present work aimed to evaluate the insecticidal activity of Cymbopogon citratus essential oil and its major compounds (citral and myrcene) on Anticarsia gemmatalis. The essential oil, citral, myrcene, and a mixture of citral and myrcene were tested at the concentrations of 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, and 0.9 % v/v, plus two negative controls (distilled water and Tween-80® 0.5 % v/v) and a positive control (novaluron 0.075 % w/v). Insect mortality was evaluated in 24, 48, 72, and 96 h. According to the results, C. citratus essential oil and the citral-myrcene mixture at 0.9 % v/v were effective in the control of A. gemmatalis, with 96 % and 88 % mortality, respectively, in the first 24 h. At this concentration, citral caused 100 % mortality after 72 h, whereas myrcene had no effect on the caterpillars even after 96 h of exposure. Thus, C. citratus essential oil can be a potential option for the alternative control of A. gemmatalis.

The Problem of Caste and Its Solution Reflected in Dr B.R. Ambedkar's an Annihilation of Caste
Authors: - Raibhole Pradip Marotirao
Published: February 2023

The Annihilation of Caste, Ambedkar, probably for the first time, raised many profound questions with respect to caste. First, he rejected the definition of caste on the basis of division of labor and argued that it was not merely a division of labor but a division of laborers. Ambedkar gave illustrations in this speech on how dalits were deprived of education and freedom of occupation and were subjected to stigmatized manual labor, all resulting in their virtual economic slavery, how they were segregated and deprived of basic rights such as drinking water even from public wells, and above all how they were made victims of Social persecutions Ambedkar (1936) argues that the worst feature of the caste system is „anti-social spirit‟ in the following words, Caste does not result in economic efficiency. Caste cannot improve, and has not improved, the race. Caste has however done one thing. It has completely disorganized and demoralized the Hindus. The Hindus often complain of the isolation and exclusiveness of a gang or a clique and blame them for anti-social spirit. But they conveniently forget that this anti-social spirit is the worst feature of their own Caste System. One caste enjoys singing a hymn of hate against another caste as much as the Germans enjoyed singing their hymn of hate against the English during the last war. Unlike a club, the membership of a caste is not open to all and sundry. The law of Caste confines its membership to persons born in the caste. Castes are autonomous, and there is no authority anywhere to compel a caste to admit a new-comer to its social life. Hindu Society being a collection of castes, and each caste being a closed corporation, there is no place for a convert. Thus it is the caste which has prevented the Hindus from expanding and from absorbing other religious communities. So long as Caste remains, Hindu religion cannot be made a Missionary religion.

Authors: - Riddhi R Matolia , - Anjali Patel , - Bhavya Patel , - Ruchi Rathod
Published: February 2023

Background: The coronavirus pandemic has led to the closure of educational institutions to limit gatherings and slow transmission. The transition from traditional learning to online learning can be a completely different experience. As the lockdown has ended, it will be difficult to return to traditional learning. We aimed to assess academic stress, the factors responsible for it, and solutions during the post-COVID-19 transition to traditional learning.
Methods: In total, 250 physiotherapy students were recruited for this study. After a proper explanation, voluntary consent was obtained, and participants were requested to fill out a self-reported questionnaire and the Perception of Academic Stress (PAS) scale. The questionnaire consisted of questions regarding the presence of academic stress, its factors, and solutions from the perspective of physiotherapy students.
Findings: The mean age of the students was 20.38 + 1.30 years. According to the PAS, most of the students (n=165) experienced a low level of academic stress (66%). Factors such as the communicability and approachability of staff and difficulty in interacting with classmates were the most expressed by students. Practical sessions should be mandatory, and an increase in extra-curricular activities is the most common solution provided by the participants.
Conclusion: We identified various factors and solutions for the academic stress on physiotherapy students during post COVID transition to traditional learning. These solutions can be included in the academic curriculum of physiotherapy institutions to combat the academic stress-related problems faced by the students.

Published: February 2023

Fingerlings of Tilapia zillii (5.20 gm ±0.03) were exposed to sap extract of Euphorbia tirucalli at concentrations of 6.00, 3.00, 1.50, 0.75 and 0.38 mg-1 with control as 0.00 mg-1 for 96 hours. The static bioassay showed that the 96-hour LC50 was 1.20 mg   with lower and upper confidence limits of 0.78 and 1.85 mg   respectively. Erratic swimming, loss of balance, respiratory distress, air gulping was observed before eventually death of the fish. Opercular ventilation and tail fin counts increased with increasing concentrations of the sap extract. Histopathological examination of the gills and liver revealed damages to these organs which were directly proportional to the concentration of the sap extract while those in the control tanks remained unchanged. Phytochemical analysis of the sap extract showed the presence of alkaloid, tannin, saponin, cardiac glycoside, rotenone, phenols, volatile oil, balsam and steroids. Water quality parameters monitored showed no significant difference (P>0.05) in temperature and pH while there was significant difference (P>0.05) in values obtained in dissolved oxygen, free carbon oxide and alkalinity. The implications of the findings as they affect the exposed fish and the aquatic ecosystem are discussed.

A Tableau Formula for Vexillary Schubert Polynomials in Type C
Authors: Matsumura Tomoo
Published: February 2023

Ikeda-Mihalcea-Naruse's double Schubert polynomials [Adv. Math. 226 (2011)] represent the equivariant cohomology classes of Schubert varieties in the type C flag varieties. The goal of this paper is to obtain a new tableau formula of these polynomials associated to vexillary signed permutations introduced by Anderson-Fulton. To achieve that goal, we introduce flagged factorial (Schur) $Q$-functions, combinatorially defined functions in terms of marked shifted tableaux for flagged strict partitions, and prove their Schur-Pfaffian formula. As an application, we also obtain a new combinatorial formula of factorial $Q$-functions of Ivanov in which monomials bijectively corresponds to flagged marked shifted tableaux.

Introduction: Hemangiomas that have undergone involution, also have a risk for the formation of residual scar tissue or scar, as well as hemangiomas undergoing excision therapy. Scar, especially those that occur in areas that are visible or open, certainly has implications for the patient's quality of life. This study aimed to determine the level of satisfaction of hemangioma patients who received propranolol therapy with excision therapy based on the scar results at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia.

Methods: Cross-sectional analytic observational study. A total of 95 research subjects participated in this study. The level of satisfaction is based on the severity of the lesion scar. The family assessment was assessed using a Likert scale consisting of the following assessment items itching, pain, color, thickness, and shape. Data analysis was carried out with the help of SPSS version 25 in univariate and bivariate.

Results: Research subjects who received propranolol therapy had different levels of satisfaction from research subjects who received surgical therapy. Research subjects who received propranolol therapy had a higher satisfaction level of 1.71 higher than those who received surgical therapy.

Conclusion: There are differences in the level of satisfaction of hemangioma patients who received propranolol therapy with excision therapy based on the scar results at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia.
Novel Microstructural Necessities for High Durable Automotive Speed Gears

In general, for automotive transmission gears, carburizing / carbonitriding process is being followed globally for its superior bending and rolling contact fatigue properties. These properties are widely influenced by various factors like material chemistry, hardness, hardening depth, microstructure and residual stress, etc. Out of these factors, microstructural requirements are vital for transmission gear’s durability which being controlled by various process methods. This research work explains, experimental research on microstructure characteristics improvement for highest durability of the gear. Higher retained austenite in the microstructure is detrimental for bending fatigue life in longer cycle regime due to drop in strength. But, it is beneficial for pitting resistance due to ability of deforming plastically. To balance both bending fatigue & pitting resistance, retained austenite level is aimed to control in surface & sub-surface of transmission gear by modifying carburizing process. Comparative study on conventional and modified carburizing process carried-out for hardness profile, phase analysis, retained austenite profile and residual stress. Durability testing on transmission gear revealed that survival life with modified carburizing cycle is more than two times of conventional process.

Published: February 2023

In compliance of the stringent Bharat Stage VI emission norms control of particulate matter in diesel engine exhaust emission is currently achieved through diesel particulate filter, catalytic convertors, baffle filters of various designs. In the present research a device comprising of a spiral duct with increasing cross sectional area over the length is designed. The duct has a lining of heat resistant and porous material fixed along the inside walls. The device is fitted at the tail pipe of compression ignition engine driven vehicle through an inlet pipe of engine exhaust with outlet connected to the tail pipe of the exhaust system. This device will collect the particulate matter in the heat resistant porous lining along the walls of the spiral thus reducing the particulate matter. The spiral flow design was simulated and was found to be in line of acceptance of flow parameters. The developed sleek design can be easily retrofitted in the existing fleet of vehicles making them compliant for stringent statuary emission norms.
Effects of Fuel and Diesel Particulate Filter on Exhaust Gases Emissions using Ricardo WAVE

Up to one-third of the light mobility vehicles and a considerable amount of heavy mobility vehicles such as trucks utilize engines powered by diesel fuel. Historically and presently, diesel fuel emits more pollutants on combustion than its counterpart, petrol, hence the new emission norms introduced by the governing body hopes to reduce the pollutants generated by these vehicles. The most notable addition to the newly adopted BS6 emissions norms is the addition of a Diesel Particulate Filter to the exhaust system of diesel engine vehicles which aims to cut down on harmful emissions such as NOx, CO and unburnt HC. An unconventional method to reduce emissions is to use biofuel and biodiesel as an alternative to conventional diesel to reduce harmful emissions. This present work will analyse and compare the effect of a DPF and biofuel on exhaust gas emissions. The Kirloskar TV-1 engine model was used for the analysis was produced on Ricardo WAVE and the engine model was validated with experimentally measured data for the same engine in [13]. The addition of a DPF reduced CO, HC and NOx emissions by an average of 10.2%, 14.8% and 63.4% respectively compared to emissions with the use of an unfiltered exhaust. The simulation results showed that an increase in biofuel concentration by 5% in the biodiesel (B5 to B20), reduced the CO by 4.2%, and increased NOx emissions by 3.2% while having identical brake thermal efficiency under ideal combustion conditions. The decrease in HC emissions was minuscule which change in biofuel concentration.
