Whole-Earth Decompression Dynamics: New Earth Formation Geoscience Paradigm Fundamental Basis of Geology and Geophysics
Authors: Herndon J. Marvin
Published: March 2021

Policymakers and educators depend upon the advice of scientists to warn of natural and anthropogenic dangers to the environment and to Earth’s biota. Decades of mal-administered government-funding have led to the corruption of science, however, and to the formation of unofficial cartels that promulgate a seriously flawed, consensus view of Earth’s origins, structure, and geodynamic behavior. Proponents of this “consensus” view, in contradiction to long-standing scientific principles, suppress or ignore concepts that better explain Earth’s fundamental behavior. Here I present, as published in the peer-reviewed scientific literature over a period of four decades, a fundamentally new, indivisible paradigm that posits Earth’s early formation as a Jupiter-like gas giant, which makes it possible to derive virtually all the geological and geodynamic behavior of our planet, including two previously unanticipated, powerful endogenous energy sources; the origin of mountain ranges characterized by folding; the origin and typography of ocean floors and continents; the origin of fjords and the primary initiation of submarine canyons; the origin of Earth’s magnetic field; the causes of geomagnetic disruptions; the source of the geothermal gradient; the origin of Earth’s petroleum and natural gas deposits; and more. The logical, causally related advances documented here stand as a reference by which to compare and evaluate the phenomenological model-nonsense that has been published for decades by government-funded scientists.

In order to investigate the correlation between teachers’ age and anatomy education online in China during the Covid-19 pandemic, we conducted a nationwide survey among the anatomists in three age cohorts (i.e., 30-39, 40-49, 50-59 years old) at the medical schools in mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau. Of the 359 respondents, there were 31% (n=108) anatomists aged 30-39, 46% (n=160) anatomists aged 40-49, and 23% (n=80) anatomists aged 50-59 years old, who were teaching clinical medicine students online at medical schools in China during the pandemic. The survey questionnaire contains the following items on online anatomy courses during the pandemic: theoretical sessions, practical sessions, active learning, assessment and perception. Based on the Chi-Square statistical analysis, although this study demonstrated that some noticeable differences existed in several items, we found the statistically significant difference was on “the formats of recording the theoretical sessions for asynchronous recorded broadcasting of online course”, among the three age groups, more teachers aged 30-39 chose to capture the PowerPoint presentation screen without the teacher appearing in the recorded video. Overall, this survey revealed that the teachers’ age and their teaching experience offline would not be the decisive factors in implementing anatomy online course effectively during the pandemic.

Effect of Graphene, SiO2 and Zeolite Powder on the Mechanical and Scratch Properties of PP
Authors: Du X.-L. , Jin J.-B. , Long X.-B. , Xiong Y.-M. , Song J.-L.
Published: March 2021

Scratch resistant surface of polypropylene (PP) is of critical importance for automobile, household appliances and other industries. In this paper, the mechanical and scratch properties of PP were studied by incorporation of three types of inorganic particles, including graphene (GP), silicon dioxide (SiO2) and zeolite powder (ZP), respectively. Maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene was used as compatibilizer. The effects of inorganic particle content on crystallization, mechanical properties and scratch resistance of PP composites were studied. Results showed that adding inorganic fillers led to enhanced crystallinity of PP, thus improving the scratch resistance of PP materials. Compared with PP/SiO2 and PP/ ZP, PP/GP exhibited the best scratch resistance and low sensitivity to scratch deformation at 2 wt% filler. We believe that the scratch resistance of PP was determined by material characteristics and crystallinity. This will be a reference for the research on the scratch resistance of other polymer materials.

Authors: Ahmed M. M. Z. , Elnaml A. , Shazly M. , El-Sayed Seleman M. M.
Published: March 2021

In this work, top surface lubrication during friction stir welding of polycarbonate sheets was applied. A homogenous layer of Paraffin wax has been placed on the top surface of the joint area with a width that ensures to cover the shoulder diameter. Then FSW was applied using conventional FSW tool with rotating pin and shoulder at different FSW parameters (Rotation speeds of 1 000, 1500, 2 000 min–1 and welding speeds of 25, 50, 75,100 mm/min). The main objective of using the wax is to act as a lubricant that reduces the friction between the shoulder and the polycarbonate surface. The joints produced were investigated in terms of surface quality, internal defects, and mechanical properties. During FSW the wax is melted and played as lubricant between the tool shoulder and the polycarbonate surface and resulted in defect-free surface with no thickness reduction of the original plate. The transverse cross-section showed defect-free joints for the majority of the FSW parameters investigated. Tensile testing results showed a reduction of the tensile strength after FSW, and an enhancement in the tensile strength with the increase of welding speed or rotation speed. The fracture occurs at the joint zone and the fracture surface investigation using SEM showed the existence of spherulitic structure in the weld joint.
Sarti's Fra i due litiganti and Opera in Vienna
Authors: Platoff John
Published: March 2021

Giuseppe Sarti's opera Fra i due litiganti, premiered in Milan in 1782, was the first great success of the reconstituted Italian opera company in Vienna in 1783. The opera sustained its enormous Viennese popularity for years, while also being performed in over one hundred other European cities by 1800. Mozart's quotation of the work in Don Giovanni testifies to its continuing appeal. But the version of the opera that was so successful in many parts of Europe differed substantially from the Milanese original. The surviving manuscript scores and printed librettos reveal that a standardized Viennese version of Fra i due litiganti, in which more than a third of the original arias were replaced, became the basis for productions across much of Europe. This unexpected standardization may reflect the prestige of Vienna and its role as a distribution point for opera scores, especially since many of the manuscripts were produced by Wenzel Sukowaty, the copyist for the Viennese court theaters. The Viennese changes surprisingly include arias for Nancy Storace and Francesco Benucci—later Mozart's Susanna and Figaro—who had themselves created the same roles in Milan. (Normally arias would be substituted to suit the preferences of new singers.) These alterations not only changed the profiles of the characters, but allowed Storace and Benucci to define themselves for the Viennese public, establishing the musical and dramatic personae that quickly made them the beloved favorites of Viennese audiences.
Anna Maria van Schurman (1607–1678). A learned maid and her quest for authentic spirituality
Authors: Gosker Margriet
Published: March 2021

I investigate Van Schurman’s spiritual and scientific life by studying her biography. What is the balance between both? Her Christian faith tried to understand intellectually the essence of Christian truth. Contemporaries complained that she was quite a different person after her decision to join the Labadist movement. In her Εὐκληρία she does indeed speak of her ‘change’. She renounced the importance of her former scientific activities and stressed the need for a pious life in Christ. But was it really such a radical break? This article will show a lot of continuity both in her life and in her work.

Cellulose/guar gum hydrogel microspheres as a magnetic anticancer drug carrier
Authors: Li Yanli , Feng Yucheng , Jing Jun , Yang Fei
Published: March 2021

A novel magnetic anticancer drug carrier based on cellulose, guar gum, and Fe3O4 hydrogel microspheres was synthesized by chemical crosslinking. These microspheres were crosslinked with epoxy chloropropane and loaded with 5-fluorouracil (5-fu). The effect of the ratio of cellulose to guar gum on bead size, drug loading, and in vitro release behaviors were investigated. The influence of the magnetic content on drug loading and in vitro release behaviors were also evaluated. The magnetic hydrogel microspheres were characterized via an optical microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, swelling behavior analysis, vibrating sample magnetometer, and ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy. The results showed that as the ratio of cellulose to guar gum increased from 3:1 to 5:1, the particle size increased from 395 to 459 um. Moreover, the drug loading capacity, encapsulation efficiency, and in vitro release behavior were influenced by the ratio of cellulose/guar gum and Fe3O4 content. Finally, the Fe3O4 particle had an adsorption effect on the drug, thereby reducing the maximum cumulative release.
X-ray microdensitometry for assessing the resistance of hybrid larch to fungus Coniophora puteana
Authors: Palanti Sabrina , Charpentier J. P. , Pâques L. E.
Published: March 2021

X-ray microdensitometry was performed on small wood samples after fungal exposure to assess wood density loss and its variability within a hybrid larch population. Microdensitometry was applied to thin wood slices obtained from increment cores collected from standing trees before and after 4 weeks of exposure to Coniophora puteana fungus. Density loss rates were measured and compared to mass loss percentages calculated on wood blocks following a 16-week decay test according to CEN TS 15083-1 (2005). The relationship between the standard mass loss and the density loss percentages was weak. Several explanations for the results are presented in this work, and methodological improvements are suggested to achieve a more accurate comparison. The proposed screening test has several advantages over the current standard method, as it is less invasive for the tree, less time consuming, and is therefore better suited for genetic studies and breeding. As predicted, due to extractive content variation and fungus behaviour, density loss after 4 w was more important in earlywood than in latewood and in inner heartwood than in outer heartwood. The new method also better determined the differences in decay among trees within the larch population than the standard method at 16 w.

Authors: Medeckytė Kamilė , Tamulevičienė Daiva
Published: March 2021

In recent decades, as the newly created internal and external environment conditions have radically changed the environment of business, the process of creating and implementing business strategy became more relevant. The data, generated by strategic management accounting, makes this process more efficient. The article examines the concept of the strategic management, its importance and related instruments. The article provides results of the research carried out to determine the level of awareness and application of strategic management accounting instruments in Lithuanian companies. Empirical research has shown that the level of awareness and application of the strategic management accounting instruments in Lithuanian companies is minor. The most common strategic management accounting instruments are as follows: customer profitability analysis, benchmarking, competitive position monitoring, strategic pricing, and strategic costing. The least known and, according to the research, the least applicable strategic management accounting instruments are: attribute costing, product life cycle accounting and brand value budgeting. According to the study, the most significant reason for the difficulties in implementing strategic management accounting instruments is the lack of time required to implement the instruments.

Published: March 2021

This text deals with the depiction of Vilnius in the work of Mieczysław Limanowski, geologist, co-founder of the Reduta Theatre Company, art and theatre critic, and professor at the Stefan Batory University. The author, drawing on the work of specialists from various fields, presents a semiotics of Vilnius in Limanowski’s writing. In his depiction of the city and the larger region, reflections on nature and culture and interwoven, and thus his work is an outstanding early example of modern cultural geography. In his vision of Lithuania and Vilnius we can identify such interdisciplinary traits as the motive of the road and the theme of transcendence, along with spirituality recorded in the cultural code of the city. In Limanowski’s writing on Vilnius his reflections on the Gates of Dawn and on the Church of Saint Nicolas are particularly noteworthy.

Culturing of primary bovine mammary epithelial cells and validation of biotransformation capacity in experiments with enrofloxacin
Authors: Vachkova E. , Vasilev N. , Grigorova N. , Milanova A.
Published: March 2021

Many drugs and toxic compounds are subjected to disposition and metabolism in bovine mammary epithelial cells (bMECs). For rapid investigation of different compounds and their possible interactions, validated in vitro models are needed. Therefore, the first objective of described experiments was to develop the techniques for cell isolation, purification and culturing of bMECs. The second objective was the application of these cell cultures in a well-known substrate for one of the major biotransformation enzymes in epithelial cells. To this end, the metabolism of enrofloxacin (ENR) into its active metabolite ciprofloxacin (CPR), was studied. This conversion is known to be catalysed by enzymes of the cytochrome P4501A and P4503A family. The expression profile of these enzymes shows a close correlation with cellular ABC-efflux transporters. Primary bMECs were isolated from healthy udders of lactating cows (n=5 animals). mRNA levels of α-casein, b-lactoferrin and cyclophilin B were determined as markers of cell identity of purity of the cultures. Subsequently, bMECs cultures were incubated with ENR (10 µM). Concentrations of ENR and its main metabolite CPR in the medium and in the cells were determined by HPLC-FL analysis. Gene expression of CYP1A1, CYP1A2 and CYP3A4, bovine ABCG2 was detected by qRT-PCR. Results showed that ENR penetrated into bMECs and was converted to CPR. CPR was excreted in the medium suggesting participation of ABCG2 in fluoroquinolone efflux. In conclusion, the data showed that the established bMEC cultures expressed major CYP450 enzymes as well as the most relevant efflux transport ABGG2. This model should be further validated and can serve as an interesting model for further studies on site-specific drug/toxin metabolism and transport in the bovine mammary gland.

Voices of silenced childhoods: Transience as decentering spatiality in three contemporary films
Authors: Barros Grela Eduardo
Published: March 2021

The interconnection between space production, place configuration, and identity development is interrogated in this essay through the lens of three film directors with transnational backgrounds. These auteurs introduce with Huelepega: La ley de la calle (Elia Schneider), Le temps du loup (Michael Haneke), and Children Underground (Edet Belzberg) the complications accrued by abandoned children and problem young adults whose erratic lives have forced them to dwell in transitional places. This essay looks at the spatial consequences of the confrontation of childhood and reterritorialization, and explores the ramifications of these interactions in terms of spatiality and place resignification.
Miss Jane and Miss Eyre: From student to teacher in Jane Eyre
Authors: Galán Rodríguez Noelia
Published: March 2021

Jane Eyre is considered to be one of the most significant Victorian novels within the English literary canon as well as a governess novel. However, apart from her experience as governess, it must not be forgotten that, first of all, Jane was a student. Education has shaped the protagonist’s life and the plot of the novel making it one of the main topics of Jane Eyre and other Charlotte Brontë’s literary works such as The Professor (1857) and Villette (1853). The main aim of this essay is to study how education has shaped Jane Eyre both as a student and a teacher and how it has affected the outcome of the novel. In order to do so, a close reading of the novel is carried out along with a sociocultural background of Victorian society.

Authors: Jović Marija , Tijan Edvard , Marx Rebecca , Gebhard Berit
Published: March 2021

As maritime transport produces a large amount of data from various sources and in different formats, authors have analysed current applications of Big Data by researching global applications and experiences and by studying journal and conference articles. Big Data innovations in maritime transport (both cargo and passenger) are demonstrated, mainly in the fields of seaport operations, weather routing, monitoring/tracking and security. After the analysis, the authors have concluded that Big Data analyses can provide deep understanding of causalities and correlations in maritime transport, thus improving decision making. However, there exist major challenges of an efficient data collection and processing in maritime transport, such as technology challenges, challenges due to competitive conditions etc. Finally, the authors provide a future perspective of Big Data usage in maritime transport.

Authors: Gódány Zsuzsanna , Machová Renáta , Mura Ladislav , Zsigmond Tibor
Published: March 2021

The socio-economic importance of entrepreneurship in the 21st century in relation to economic growth has become undisputable on local and global level both in terms of macroeconomic indicators, as well as the micro environment. Despite the above, this field still offers questions to be addressed, and these are related to the entrepreneurs themselves, entrepreneurial behaviour, motivation to start business, but also the entrepreneurial environment that encourages or hampers their activities or attitudes. Entrepreneurial motivation is often related to push and pull factors. This study analyses entrepreneurial motivation through push and pull factors. The central aspiration of this research, which was conducted according to problem-oriented quantitative methodology, is founded on the information analysis from the respondents in the following fields: motivation to start business, attitudes related to success and financial vs. non-financial success. To answer the research question the questionnaire survey was chosen as a data collection method. Findings indicated that people quit their employment because they are forced to do as a result of certain push factors, which have fundamental influence on decision or motivation to start their own business.
Guiding the Students in High School by Using Machine Learning
Authors: Ababneh Mustafa , Aljarrah Aayat , Karagozlu Damla , Ozdamli Fezile
Published: March 2021

Machine learning is considered the most significant technique that processes and analyses educational big data. In this research paper, many previous papers related to analysing the educational big data that uses a lot of artificial intelligence techniques were studied. The purpose of the study is to identify weaknesses and gaps in previous researches. The results showed that many researches highlighted early expectations for academic performance. Unfortunately, no one thought of finding an effective way to guide high schooled students to reach their appropriate majors that can be suitable to their abilities. Those students need to be guided to pass this sensitive phase with high efficiency and good results. Thus, this school level is considered as the starting point for students’ academic lives, professional, and future success.

Published: March 2021

Many elementary students face difficulties in solving word-based, mathematical problems. This study explores using the reciprocal teaching instructional strategy for word-based, mathematical problems at the elementary level. We used a quasiexperimental research design for this study to address the reciprocal teaching environment design, implementation, and evaluation at elementary level mathematics education. Two sixth grade model classes, A & B, of a public secondary school from the district of Okara, Punjab, Pakistan, were selected for this study. Reciprocal teaching for mathematics appears to be an essential strategy for nurturing a more in-depth understanding of the text of mathematical word problems at the elementary level. This instructional approach could enhance an extraordinary level of skill in critical thinking, reasoning, and understanding.

Authors: N. Dvoryatkina Svetlana , A. Simonovskaya Galina
Published: March 2021

The conceptual position of the research is that the integration of mathematical and chess game activities ensures the effective development of cognitive and intellectual abilities of students, motivation to study mathematics, and productive development of its “problem areas”. A technology for identifying and correcting the “problem zone” based on a chess game has been developed. All stages of the technology are presented on the example of mastering complex educational construct-combinatorial schemes. The effective influence of the chess game on the development of cognitive and mathematical abilities of students is theoretically and experimentally proved.
Vers une politique publique de l’archivage audiovisuel ? Le cas vaudois
Authors: Berthoud Raphaël
Published: March 2021

Bien que l’audiovisuel fasse partie de notre paysage culturel depuis plus d’un siècle, sa conservation est problématique : la variété des supports, l’obsolescence de ceux-ci, la qualité relative des supports de substitution (CD, DVD) dont on nous vantait l’immortalité (à tort, après usage), la masse des documents à traiter, l’équipement souvent exclusif (appartenant à certaines marques déposées) pour leur consultation, la nécessité de respecter des normes de conservation souvent récentes et encore certaines contraintes juridiques expliquent pourquoi peu d’institutions se sont lancées dans la conservation et la numérisation de ces données, sans parler de la restauration.Pourtant, ces sources sont essentielles à la compréhension de l’époque actuelle. Cette préoccupation devient importante, la politique s’en mêle. Notre travail de réflexion a été initié par le postulat de la députée Fabienne Freymond Cantone cosigné par 23 députés au Conseil d’État. « Les Archives cantonales vaudoises, mémoire de notre canton, quid des archives audiovisuelles ? »développé à la séance du mardi 1er septembre 2015.Dans ce travail, nous commençons par définir de manière générale le concept de l’audiovisuel à proprement parler et ses différentes acceptions. Nous insistons sur les recommandations de l’UNESCO définissant les documents audiovisuels comme des archives devant être préservées et donc prises en charge par des institutions d’archives. Ensuite, nous passons en revue les différents types de supports qui accueillent des données audiovisuelles, point essentiel pour comprendre la difficulté de conservation de ces données et de leurs supports, une liste relativement exhaustive des supports permettant de découvrir les problèmes liés à chacun d’entre eux. Nous traitons aussi le cheminement nécessaire des documents audiovisuels, que les archivistes définissent ainsi : conservation – inventaire et catalogage – indexation – numérisation (seule possibilité de conserverdes supports obsolètes) et évidemment la communication ou diffusion de ces archives, en relevant un point d’achoppement comme les droits d’auteur.Nous abordons ensuite la production audiovisuelle vaudoise aussi bien du côté des institutions cantonales que des privés, en remarquant la lacune de prise en charge de ce type de documents par les institutions vaudoises dédiées au patrimoine, que ce soit la Bibliothèque cantonale et universitaire de Lausanne ou les Archives cantonales vaudoises. Le chapitre suivant s’attache àdécrire la situation actuelle de ce type de documents aux Archives cantonales vaudoises, en comparaison avec d’autres institutions, comme les Archives de la Ville de Lausanne et la Cinémathèque suisse. Pour terminer, nous proposons aux autorités politiques du Canton de Vaud des solutions et des scénarios politiquement et financièrement envisageables pour prendre en charge ce patrimoine, sous peine de le voir disparaître.
Personennachlässe im digitalen Zeitalter sichern.
Authors: Pfyffer Gaby
Published: March 2021

Spezialarchive wie das Archiv für Zeitgeschichte (AfZ), die Nachlässe von Privatpersonen sammeln, sind mit dem Übergang ins digitale Zeitalter vor grosse Herausforderungen gestellt. Wie alle Institutionen, die Quellen – und damit je länger je mehr auch digitale Quellen – sichern, müssen sie sich intensiv damit beschäftigen, wie diese Quellen übernommen, aufbereitet und langzeitarchiviert werden können, damit sie Nutzern und Nutzerinnen auch in Zukunft als authentische Dokumente zur Verfügung stehen.Die vorliegende Arbeit versucht, anhand der aktuellen Forschungsliteratur, einer eigenen bei einigen exemplarisch ausgewählten Archiven durchgeführten Umfrage sowie anhand von bereits vorhandener Praxiserfahrung im AfZ und weiteren Archiven zu klären, welche Vorgehensweisen bei der Sicherung von digitalen Nachlässen und Personenarchiven verfolgt werden können bzw. in der Praxis bereits als Konzepte existieren oder gar schon Teil des laufenden Archivbetriebs sind. Das Augenmerk liegt dabei auf der strategisch-organisatorischen Ebene, weniger auf technischen Fragen. Die Phase der Bestandsbildung – also die vorarchivische Phase – wird als zentraler Ansatzpunkt für Massnahmen identifiziert, um eine spätere geordnete und möglichst vollständige Übernahme von Personenarchiven in die Archivinstitution zu gewährleisten. Die Frage, wie Bestandsbildner betreut und begleitet werden sollen sowie diejenige nach der Bewertung von digitalen Unterlagen und dem Verhältnis dieser beiden Fragen zueinander, stehen im Zentrum.Die Arbeit schliesst mit einem vorläufigen Fazit und Empfehlungen für das AfZ.
Los Cargos: Un relato del sistema de cargos en El Totonaco del Río Necaxa
Authors: Beck David , Lam Yvonne , Melo Márquez Rosendo
Published: March 2021

En este artículo se presenta un texto del totonaco del Río Necaxa en el cual se describe el ciclo ceremonial anual para asignar y renovar los puestos municipales, o sea, los cargos. El texto ofrece un relato de un género muy poco documentado: la descripción de primera mano de los festivales y los rituales en torno al sistema decargos. Les infunde vida a los trabajos académicos anteriores acerca del sistema mesoamericano de cargos al describir una imagen clara y detallada de cómo se practicaba a mediados del siglo XX en la Sierra Norte de Puebla.
Estudio comparativo entre los ordenamientos jurídicos español y japonés acerca de la responsabilidad por daños morales derivados de la infidelidad conyugal
Authors: Domínguez Yamasaki María Isabel
Published: March 2021

La admisibilidad de la responsabilidad civil por daños morales en el Derecho de familia es una las cuestiones que en la actualidad es objeto de debate en la doctrina y que, como nuestro propio Tribunal Supremo reconoce, plantea los mismos interrogantes en el Derecho comparado. Así pues, el objeto de este trabajo consiste en una comparación entre los ordenamientos jurídicos español y japonés respecto de la responsabilidad civil por daños morales derivados de la infidelidad conyugal, dadas las similitudes que presentan los códigos civiles de ambos países en contraste con las soluciones opuestas adoptadas por los mismos. Las mencionadas similitudes ponen de manifiesto la importancia de las consideraciones éticas y morales a la hora de proporcionar una solución a los supuestos en los que se constata la producción de un daño moral con motivo del incumplimiento del deber de fidelidad que se deben los cónyuges.
Las European Rules of Civil Procedure: ¿un punto de partida para la armonización del proceso civil?
Authors: Gascón Inchausti Fernando
Published: March 2021

En otoño de 2020 el European Law Institute y UNIDROIT aprobaron las European Rules of Civil Procedure, un conjunto sistemático de normas a través de las que se diseña un modelo de proceso civil con potencial para resultar operativo en cualquier país europeo. Se trata, obviamente, de un instrumento de soft law, que se basa en un extenso y prolongado trabajo de comparación jurídica, que ha permitido detectar las mejores soluciones a las necesidades que suscita hoy en día un sistema de justicia civil eficiente. Se analizan qué son y qué no son las European Rules, al tiempo que se desgranan los rasgos esenciales del modelo procesal civil diseñado, caracterizado por la flexibilidad, la gestión activa del procedimiento y el esfuerzo sostenido por la solución consensual del litigio. Es difícil vaticinar cuál será su impacto futuro, aunque sin duda las European Rules of Civil Procedure están llamadas a desempeñar un papel relevante en cualquier tarea de armonización procesal civil que se emprenda en el futuro, en la medida en que han demostrado que técnicamente resulta posible y que, por tanto, las variables de las que depende son primordialmente políticas.
La eficacia en España de los divorcios extrajudiciales otorgados en el extranjero
Authors: Marchal Escalona Nuria
Published: March 2021

El objeto del presente trabajo es analizar el régimen de reconocimiento de los divorcios extrajudiciales extranjeros en España considerando como tales aquellos en los que interviene una autoridad no judicial con carácter constitutivo o como mera federataria, así como los basados en un simple acuerdo entre los cónyuges. La importancia cuantitativa que están adquiriendo en los últimos tiempos evidencia el interés del tema y la necesidad de un tratamiento pormenorizado del mismo al no existir estudios doctrinales sobre el tema. Una cuestión que se presenta compleja, máxime teniendo en cuenta que la diversidad es la nota dominante en Derecho comparado, y que la decisión o el documento que disuelve el matrimonio puede incluir pronunciamientos diferentes al meramente constitutivo.

Protecting digital platform users by means of Private International Law
Authors: Pretelli Ilaria
Published: March 2021

El presente artículo ofrece perspectivas sobre las posibles adaptaciones de los puntos de conexión tradicionales al espacio digital. Proporciona análisis de casos que enfrentan a los usuarios de la plataforma entre sí y casos que enfrentan a los usuarios de la plataforma con la propia plataforma digital. Para el primer conjunto de casos, el principio de eficacia y el de favor laesi ofrecen una orientación fiable. La colaboración de plataformas digitales para permitir la ejecución de decisiones judiciales en el ciberespacio se considera necesaria y suficiente para garantizar el acceso efectivo a la justicia. En cuanto al segundo, se aboga por una mayor protección de las partes más débiles, en consonancia con los logros más recientes de debida diligencia en materia de derechos humanos. Las cláusulas de protección que conducen estándares de trabajo basados en el destino representarían un paso adelante positivo.
El ingreso mínimo vital a la luz del derecho de la Unión Europea y de los convenios internacionales de Seguridad Social vigentes en España
Authors: Sánchez-Rodas Navarro Cristina
Published: March 2021

El Ingreso Mínimo Vital y las rentas mínimas autonómicas presentan innegables similitudes en cuanto a sus objetivos y acción protectora, siendo la diferencia más remarcable que el primero se califica jurídicamente como prestación no contributiva de Seguridad Social sometida a prueba de ingresos. No nos cabe duda de que el Ingreso Mínimo Vital está incluido en el ámbito de aplicación material del Reglamento 883/2004 de coordinación de los sistemas de Seguridad Social y, por tanto, resulta exportable a los Estados donde se aplica el Derecho de la Unión Europea. Pero, simultáneamente, también puede ser calificado de ventaja social conforme al Reglamento 492/2011. Y como prestación de Asistencia Social a los efectos de la Directiva 2004/38. Respecto a la aplicación al Ingreso Mínimo Vital de los Convenios Internacionales de Seguridad Social vigentes en España puede existir una dicotomía entre la práctica administrativa y el ámbito material de dichos Convenios.
