Published: June 2024

This study aims to investigate the factors that contribute to internship stress among Vietnamese students by analyzing the associations between personality traits, internship stress, stress mindset, and demographics. A cross-sectional study design was utilized, comprising 149 Vietnamese students who were engaged in internship programs. The data gathering process encompassed the assessment of personality traits, internship stress levels, stress mindset, and participant demographics, which encompassed gender, age, GPA, and internship hours. We conducted path analyses to examine the relationships between these variables, and conducted moderation analyses to explore the interaction between age and the impact of extraversion on internship stress. Increased degrees of neuroticism were associated with a negative stress mindset, and this association was largely mediated by the stress experienced during an internship. Age moderated the negative association between the trait of extraversion and internship stress. More precisely, the association between extraversion and stress was significantly greater among younger students than it was among older students. Female students reported a lower stress mindset compared to male students, and higher GPAs were associated with both reduced internship stress and a more optimistic stress mindset. The results indicate that specific personality traits, such as neuroticism and extraversion, as well as internship stress, have a notable impact on the stress mindset of Vietnamese students. Gaining insight into these aspects can guide the development of internship programs that provide greater support and equip students with specific coping methods to enhance their well-being and manage internship difficulties more efficiently.

Published: June 2024

Floods in all their form are considered a real threat to many regions of the world. There are various types of floods, including those caused by the collapse of dams, which must be predicted to mitigate their effects. One of the non-structural solutions for flood mitigation and control is drawing the dam failure hazard map using effective and accurate flood models, which are essential for flood disaster prevention and mitigation. The study aims at the delineation of the flood plain area caused by Manbaa-Al-Ghozlan dam failure in the city of Biskra (About 40 km downstream the dam) and the surrounding communities (the village of El Outaya). Two scenarios were considered and simulated using the HEC-RAS 2D (River Analysis System) software, the first one is related to the sudden collapse of the dam and the second linked to under-evaluations of the projected flood of the dam spillway. The results of the first scenario confirmed that there are no risks threatening the city of Biskra taking into account the water depth which reached 5 meters in the city of El Outaya. Conversely, the water depth varying between 16m and 40m in the city of El Outaya and can exceed 16 meters in the city of Biskra for the second scenario, and this performs as a great danger for the zone. This simulation allowed designing the dam failure hazards map, which showed the areas threatened by flood waves, and consequently required a plan of security measures to moderate as much as possible the consequences of a dam collapse.

Published: June 2024

Numerical methods today play a useful and important role in solving various problems related to fracture mechanics including modeling crack propagation, fretting fatigue and cohesion... Furthermore, these methods have been widely used to solve problems in linear and nonlinear fracture mechanics in cases of elastic, plastic fracture problems. The evaluation of stress intensity factor in 2D and 3D geometries, thus these techniques widely used for non-standard crack configurations. The objective of this work is study the effects of the crack length and the number of structural elements on the two crack parameters such as the stress intensity factor KI and KII and the contour integral (J). As well as presenting a numerical modeling of crack propagation, for a LEHIM (Linear Elastic Homogeneous Isotopic Material) with mechanical characteristics by the method SFEMD (Stretching Finite Element Method Developed), the model chosen with quadratic elements with 4 nodes (CPE4). However, this method is based on the effect of the number of contours and the number of elements around the crack tip on the variation of the stress intensity factors. In addition, the crack propagation criterion (MCSC) was used, a computer program was created in FORTRAN language to develop and evaluate the stress intensity factors and the contour integral (J). Several examples of crack lengths a = 0.7, 1.4, 2.1, 2.8 and 3.5 mm were used. Additionally, the number of items has been changed several times. The stress intensity factors of modes I and II and direction angles (α) are calculated to solve the problem using the ABAQUS finite element code. The results obtained by the SFEMD method and the results of the analytical method are very close.

Este estudo apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa bibliográfica que investiga e identifica as discussões sobre o uso de jogos no ensino de matemática sob uma perspectiva piagetiana. A pesquisa envolveu um levantamento dos principais textos sobre o uso de jogos e as teorias de Piaget. A análise da literatura revelou uma lacuna significativa na apropriação da teoria piagetiana pelos professores de matemática e uma relutância em usar jogos como ferramentas educacionais de forma efetiva e significativa. Este trabalho destaca a necessidade de explorar diretamente essa temática, lançando luz sobre os fatores que impedem os professores de adotarem a teoria Psicogenética e os jogos para promover um ensino de matemática mais próximo e significativo para os alunos. Ao investigar as obras de diversos autores, constatou-se que, apesar do reconhecimento da importância dos jogos no desenvolvimento cognitivo, muitos professores ainda não se sentem confortáveis ou capacitados para integrar essas ferramentas em suas práticas pedagógicas. A pesquisa também identificou que o uso de jogos pode proporcionar um ambiente de aprendizado mais dinâmico e interativo, favorecendo a construção do conhecimento de forma mais natural e significativa para os alunos. O estudo enfatiza a importância de aproximar a teoria psicogenética de Piaget do ensino de matemática na educação básica, contribuindo para uma aprendizagem significativa e envolvente. Os resultados indicam que, ao utilizar jogos, os professores podem avaliar e acompanhar melhor o desenvolvimento cognitivo dos alunos, adaptando suas estratégias de ensino para atender às necessidades individuais de cada estudante. Além disso, a incorporação de jogos no ensino de matemática pode ajudar a reduzir a ansiedade e o desinteresse dos alunos pela disciplina, tornando o aprendizado mais prazeroso e motivador. Este trabalho sugere que futuras pesquisas devem focar na formação continuada dos professores, proporcionando-lhes as ferramentas e conhecimentos necessários para integrar efetivamente os jogos no ensino de matemática. Também é recomendado que sejam realizados estudos de caso e experimentações em sala de aula para validar e aprimorar as metodologias propostas. Desta forma, espera-se contribuir para a construção de uma educação matemática mais próxima da realidade dos alunos e mais alinhada com as necessidades contemporâneas da sociedade.

Note su Forme dell’addio di Ernesto Napolitano
Authors: Pinto Angelo
Published: June 2024

Questo articolo presenta un’ampia discussione del libro di Ernesto Napolitano, Forme dell'addio, dedicato all’ultimoGustav Mahler. Seguendo il percorso nel mondo mahleriano che Napolitano propone, l'articolo discute i seguenti puntichiave relativi al primo modernismo di Mahler: a) la tendenza all'astrazione; b) l’anti-soggettivismo; c) l’anti-antropocentrismo; d) l’oggettività e il disincanto; e) la narratività mahleriana come 'epica moderna', secondo la teoria diMoretti (1994); f) il confronto tra le opere tarde mahleriane e quelle degli anni Wunderhorn. In primo luogo, lungo la discussione di questi punti, quest’articolo suggerisce un legame più forte tra il tardo stile mahleriano e quello degli anniWunderhorn di quanto propone Napolitano. L'articolo allarga poi il raggio teorico ed ermeneutico dell'anti-antropocentrismo mahleriano, che Napolitano limita la narratività musicale di Mahler, ma che può essere una chiave dilettura delle conclusioni di questo musicologo sull'Ottava Sinfonia e su Das Lied von der Erde. Infine, a partire dall'analisidi Napolitano della Decima Sinfonia di Mahler, l'autore del presente articolo prospetta un'applicazione più forte delparadigma dell'epica moderna a questa sinfonia. Come esempio di questa direzione di ricerca, egli propone poi i risultatidei suoi precedenti articoli su questa sinfonia (Pinto 2019, 2020).
Segni e suoni

L’articolo propone un’analisi del rapporto fra musica e linguaggio, a partire da due approcci semantici alternativi, con un duplice obiettivo: 1) illustrare le conseguenze di diverse teorie del significato per la comprensione della musica; 2) capire quale impostazione risulta più appropriata per rispondere alle istanze teoriche poste da questo confronto. Le prospettive prese in considerazione, privilegiando diversi aspetti del fenomeno musicale, sembrano sostenere istanze non conciliabili. Da un lato, la prospettiva referenzialista evidenzia il fatto innegabile che la musica suscita interpretazioni, contenuti, significati, accostando in questo modo la musica alle lingue storico naturali e alle loro capacità denotative, dall’altro l’analisi semiologica descrive la musica come materia acustica organizzata, il cui unico contenuto consiste nell’esibizione di rapporti formali. Le rispettive istanze possono coesistere spostando il centro del confronto dai prodotti delle attività linguistiche e musicali, al tipo di operatività esibita dai due fenomeni, prendendo come radice comune delle due attività (linguistica e musicale) la capacità generale di articolare segni, delineata da Saussure nel Corso di Linguistica Generale. Una volta posta questa prospettiva, diventa possibile conciliare le istanze contenutistiche dell’interpretazione musicale insieme con la sua descrizione formale e porre il confronto in termini produttivi.

The article examines the capabilities of content-based instruction (CBI) within the system of professional training of future officers of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, specifically within the online English for Specific Purposes (ESP) course. The authors argue that nowadays, due to the quarantine restrictions and ongoing war initiated by Russia, it is crucial to enhance the border guards’ foreign language competence through a distance learning system. The study showed positive results in applying the CBI strategy to deliver an ESP course. This approach contributes immensely to developing context-appropriate language competence, boosts motivation-driven engagement, and increases retention and long-term academic success rates. The course content includes such topics as intercultural communication, illicit trafficking of radiological and nuclear materials, human trafficking, and fundamental rights. To deliver the content of the CBI course, the authors had to consider its online format and work out such learning activities as reading and listening to authentic job-related content, completing online interactive activities, and engaging in case-studying and problem-solving activities. The course results showed a considerable improvement in learners’ ability to effectively communicate in English within the professional border guard context, use the foreign language to build knowledge and skills around human values, recognise, analyse, and solve various border-related incidents involving topics covered in the course. The effectiveness of the online ESP course studied based on CBI has shown that implementing this approach in online education deserves recognition and acceptance.

Published: June 2024

Odontophobia, also known as dental fear and anxiety (DFA), is a type of phobia that can negatively affect the dental and oral health of people who experience it. This phobia has psychosocial characteristics that make it complex to address in dental practice. Dealing with dental fear is a challenging issue in dentistry for various reasons. Although this issue has been studied in children for quite some time around the world, no such studies have been conducted in Zawia, Libya. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of dental fear and anxiety (DFA) among pupils aged 5 to 12- years in public and private schools in Zawia City. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in Zawia City over three months. In the survey, 205 students were randomly selected from several private and public schools. All participants were given a self-reported questionnaire containing ten closed-ended questions about DFA. After collecting the data, the results were analyzed based on gender and school type and entered into a Microsoft Excel sheet for further analysis. Results of the study showed that 31.71% of all pupils experienced dental fear and anxiety (DFA). Furthermore, the slight variations in fear levels based on school type indicate that the school environment may influence a pupil's perception of dental visits. Most private school students experienced DFA during physical contact with their dentists and upon seeing dental anesthesia injections. Whereas pupils attending government schools experienced DFA when hearing voices during treatment. Across all areas studied, female students reported slightly higher levels of anxiety than male students. Based on the survey results, it is evident that many pupils experience high levels of dental fear and anxiety (DFA). This highlights the need for intervention and attention in such situations, as DFA can significantly affect a pupil's dental experience and oral health outcomes. Therefore, it is essential to address these fears and anxieties to improve the overall dental experience of pupils and promote better oral health

Published: June 2024

The current study examined the effects of heat treatment on the microhardness and wear resistance of electrodeposited Ni-P-SiC coatings, as well as the effects of SiC particle concentrations on the coating's metallic continuous phase. Direct electrodeposition onto a low alloy steel electrode (0.40 C) was used to obtain the deposits. A modified Watt bath and pure nickel anode were used, and the material was heat treated for one hour at 400 °C. Using XRD and SEM methods, the Ni-P-SiC deposit was characterized. Additionally, the deposit's microhardness was assessed using the LECO, DM-400, both before and after heat treatment, with a 50g load. The results obtained indicate that the coating's deposition on the surface of low alloy steel and its impacts on the deposit coating crystal plane may be influenced by the applied current density. The SiC dispersion slightly improved as the bath's SiC content rose. The reduction in phosphor content of the deposited Ni-P-SiC coating as a result of the SiC particles being added to the Ni-P electrodeposition bath. The XRD data showed that crystalline Ni and Ni3P are formed as a result of the heat treatment procedure. As the SiC content in the electrodeposition bath and heat treatment procedure rises, so does the microhardness of the Ni-P-SiC deposit. Low alloy steel's resistance to erosion corrosion can be strengthened by the Ni-P-SiC.

Sports aim to enhance an individual’s formation through organized physical and mental involvement. As sports participation promotes teamwork and dedication, athletes develop sportsmanship, mindfulness, and mental toughness, which brings out their confidence. While the COVID-19 pandemic has caused distress and tested the resilience of people, the effects of the situation on student-athlete mindset and competitiveness remain unresolved. With Bandura’s Self-Efficacy Theory as its foreshadowing theory, this qualitative study focused on the experiences of 10 high school to collegiate student-athletes from a private university in Manila who were asked about their mindsets during the COVID-19 pandemic. After analyzing the data from the transcribed interviews through thematic analysis and the use of the Tracy Coding Matrix, findings revealed the effects of Bandura’s sources of self-efficacy expectations that influenced the student-athletes’ will to win, particularly performance accomplishments, vicarious experience, verbal persuasion, and emotional arousal. The researchers found that sports affect student-athletes’ competitive mindsets by developing their traits, such as self-confidence, motivation, self-assurance, self-reformation, and wellness. Although sports participation also caused feelings of insecurity and pressure among the participants, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, student-athletes were able to adapt, particularly through being supported by their environment. With this, some of the findings suggest that a social circle's presence may ignite student-athletes' drive for victory but may also demotivate them. Finally, the findings of the study may be used to understand student-athlete behavior and strategies such as positive reinforcement and goal-setting may be used to improve their mentalities.

Published: June 2024

This paper underscores the pressing need to address resilience and sustainability in the face of constant challenges, environmental threats, and rapid changes in living conditions. In response, an interdisciplinary and holistic approach is deemed crucial, with engineering science playing a pivotal role in adapting to global conditions. The focus of this research is on identifying sustainability-related parameters for sustainable façades during the preliminary design phase and assessing existing decision support tools. Through a comparative analysis of methods in architectural design, environmental engineering, and structural design, the authors aim to enhance the understanding of sustainable architectural design concepts. The study specifically examines three façades in Zakho, Iraq, employing specific criteria such as diverse building types, locations, and design timelines. The last three steps of the preliminary design stage are emphasized for façade design optimization, a critical aspect influencing overall building performance and sustainability parameters. Various methods, including forecasting and backcasting, are considered alongside post-occupancy evaluation tools, incorporating factors like window-to-wall ratio, shadow elements, material selection, and natural lighting techniques. The research findings highlight the significance of a window ratio between 60% and 75% in the city's buildings, particularly given the prevalent single-facade architecture. Material selection emerges as a crucial factor impacting thermal performance, and strategic placement of insulation materials is identified as vital for optimizing energy efficiency. The article underscores the importance of informed decisions in choosing a building's location, initiating with site selection, and educating designers about the environmental implications of building orientation on overall well-being.

Published: June 2024

Solid waste management (SWM) in Iraq faces significant challenges due to inadequate infrastructure, insufficient regulatory frameworks, and low public awareness. This review explores the current state of SWM in various Iraqi cities, highlighting key issues and proposing recommendations for improvement. In Babylon Governorate, open dumping and poor collection processes are prevalent, with waste production expected to increase significantly by 2030. Kerbala's SWM system is hindered by limited funds, requiring better disposal and recycling infrastructure and stakeholder engagement. Al-Nassyriah residents expressed dissatisfaction with current SWM practices, indicating a need for increased public awareness and proper waste sorting infrastructure. Sulaimania faces environmental threats from open dumping, with seasonal variations in waste generation and inadequate medical waste management. In Erbil, substantial recyclable materials remain untapped due to a lack of efficient treatment technologies and public awareness. Najaf's exploration of waste-to-energy solutions presents a promising alternative for addressing waste management issues. This review underscores the necessity of developing modern infrastructure, enforcing stringent regulations, enhancing public education, and integrating waste management with energy production to achieve sustainable SWM in Iraq.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR OWN TEMPERAMENT: CREATING A FOUNDATION FOR NURSES TOWARD POSITIVE AND RESPECTFUL INTERACTIONS WITH PATIENTS AND OTHERS
Authors: Abubakar Aisha Baffa , Abduljalal Abdulaziz Sani
Published: June 2024

The first step toward understanding oneself and others is through temperament and despite the core values of a nurse, which include human dignity, integrity, autonomy, altruism, and social justice, numerous public misconceptions exist regarding nurses. They are often unfairly claimed to be rude, arrogant, lacking manners, and deficient in building human relationships and empathy with their patients and others. This paper highlights the four basic temperaments and how one can analyze his/her temperament with a view of exploring the ways nurses can relate in positive and respectful interactions with patients and others regardless of their temperament. The article recommends integrating the comprehension of one's temperament and understanding why people act (behave) the way they do into nursing practice as this will provide a foundation aimed not only at enhancing the quality of care but also at fostering healthier relationships between nurses and patients

Published: June 2024

Introduction

Multidisciplinary teamwork addresses the demands of the modern healthcare system. It enables collaboration between medical, nursing and allied health practitioners to deliver high-quality, patient-centred care. In a rural Australian setting, an interprofessional training programme, developed over the past decade, used healthcare simulation to deliver immersive student learning experiences. A three-part, half-day simulation programme allowed students to experience and learn from phases of care through, ‘Stroke – the patient journey’, including emergency management, allied health assessments and discharge planning.

Methods

Twenty students from six different disciplines participated in the programme. Three assessments were used. Knowledge of participants’ health disciplines was assessed pre- and post-training. A focus group was used to elicit student reflections on their learning experience. The individual Teamwork and Observational Feedback Tool was used by peers and tutors alike to assess in-exercise observable behaviours.

Results

No increase in discipline-specific knowledge was demonstrated following the training. The focus group identified five key themes: (1) Understanding patient priorities; (2)Enhancing patient autonomy; (3) Observation of discipline-specific contributions to care; (4) Understanding the role of multidisciplinary team discussions and (5) Value of leadership in team-based care. The average scores were 70% for ‘Shared decision-making’ and 75% for ‘Working in a team’. ‘Leadership’ was demonstrated by 70% of students and ‘Patient safety’ by 55%.

Discussion

This study has demonstrated the value of the use of sequential healthcare simulation episodes to increase student understanding of acute and chronic management of a patient with a stroke. Learners understood that effective multidisciplinary communication and teamwork are essential in the care of a complex patient.
The Roles of NGOs in Skill Development of The Street Food Vendors for Hygienic Food Preparation and Serving in Bangladesh
Authors: Shahen Md Abu
Published: June 2024

This paper tried to explore the roles of non-government organizations in developing the skills of street food microentrepreneurs in health and safe food preparation and servicing in the western part of Bangladesh. The study utilized a qualitative approach, using a purposive sampling method to select respondents for in-depth interviews, key informant interviews, and focus group discussions. The street food vendors and stakeholders were selected from the project team, and the research tools included in-depth interviews with 20 vendors, interviews with 8 key stakeholders, and two focus group discussions with customers and entrepreneurs. The researcher discovered that NGO plays a critical role in skill development for street food vendors in Bangladesh. Prior to the project, vendors were unfamiliar with safety, hygiene, cleanliness, and sustainable promotion. The project improved their skills in safety and security, market promotion, hygiene maintenance, cleanliness, and sustainable development by implementing various activities like training, meetings, workshops, food festivals and fairs, market linkage, stakeholder involvement, online and offline market promotion, and so on. The project also increased restaurant customers and market creation. However, the study found that food safety NGO workers and street food programs have collaborated to raise awareness about food safety, health, hygiene, and environmental issues. These initiatives have improved health and lifestyles, improved food quality, increased client numbers, and increased business profits. The stakeholders gathering in Bogura and Rajshahi focused on promoting product certification, with some microenterprises pursuing it. Microenterprises received work-based training on food safety and hygiene, leading to advancements in food packaging, safe raw materials, cleanliness, and hygiene practices. Product certification training increased stakeholders’ understanding of the importance of certification, and some MEs are now following it. The NGO organized a fair to highlight reputable food businesses and raise awareness of environmental sustainability, hygiene, and food safety. The entrepreneurs know how to prepare healthy dishes, increasing sales and revenue. This awareness have been raised due to the NGO’s interventions implemented for street food vendors in the study area.

A análise empreendida visa a traçar um breve panorama deste novo instituto, destacando como uma interpretação literal dessa regra limitadora pode infligir graves violações ao devido processo legal, comprometendo todo o processo civil constitucional. Nesse contexto, são examinadas as proposições feitas pela doutrina e pela jurisprudência para tentar solucionar esse problema jurídico, bem como as possíveis dificuldades decorrentes dessas novas diretrizes interpretativas.
DAS FINALIDADES DO PROCESSO PENAL CONFORME O INSTRUMENTALISMO
Authors: Teles Alexandre Gomes Arantes
Published: June 2024

A teoria geral do processo é aplicável ao processo penal por diversos motivos, dentre eles: i) foi adotada pela CRFB; ii) por serem diferentes as noções de procedimento e processo; iii) pelo fato do processo civil ser mais antigo que aquele aplicado do direito público; iv) a tutela de interesses penais não é suficiente para afastar a teoria geral do processo, já que direito processual e direito material são ramos autônomos; v) o direito é uno, não havendo o porquê de se erguer uma barreira entre os processos civil e penal. Uma vez comprovada a aplicação da teoria geral do processo, abre-se espaço para do instrumentalismo sobre o processo penal, que é o hodierno momento epistemológico da ciência processual, no qual as categorias processuais já foram suficientemente maturadas. Para o instrumentalismo, o processo deve ser estudado em relação às suas finalidades, existindo três grandes escopos processuais: o escopo social, o escopo político e o escopo jurídico. Com o escopo social, deve o processo buscar a pacificação social através de critérios justos, encontrados na CRFB, ao passo que o escopo social da educação resta demonstrado quando as pessoas buscam seus direitos e deveres em razão da instigação provocada pela escorreita aplicação do processo. O escopo político está presente em todo o processo, já que ele representa instrumento do poder estatal e garantia do indivíduo. Com o escopo jurídico, o processo representa a atuação da vontade do direito e, portanto, manifestação de segurança jurídica.
A TEORIA DA JUSTIÇA DE JOHN RAWLS, O DIREITO FUNDAMENTAL À EDUCAÇÃO E A EMENDA CONSTITUCIONAL 95/2016
Authors: Medeiros Clayton Gomes de , Pimpão Carlos Henrique Diedrichs
Published: June 2024

O propósito do presente artigo será o de analisar o direito à educação na teoria da justiça de John Rawls e como a Emenda Constitucional 95/2016 impacta negativamente na concretização e universalização deste direito. Na obra “Teoria de Justiça”, John Rawls propõe uma teoria de justiça baseando-se fundamentalmente em dois princípios: o primeiro princípio que garante liberdades básicas a todos e o segundo princípio, que trata das desigualdades sociais e econômicas que devem promover condições mais favoráveis para todos, balizado pelo princípio da diferença, que considera justas as desigualdades que promovam uma melhora nas condições dos menos favorecidos. Nesta perspectiva, analisamos esta teoria de justiça igualitária e o direito à educação, como meio essencial para melhorar a vida dos menos favorecidos e como a Emenda Constitucional 95/2016 afeta diretamente este direito através de seu financiamento, inviabilizando a sua concretização e universalização, afetando negativamente os menos favorecidos.
Obligación del abasto de carne de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires en un período de cambios (1723-1759)
Authors: Pelozatto Reilly Mauro Luis
Published: June 2024

Este artículo busca ofrecer un análisis clasificatorio y descriptivo de las intervenciones del Cabildo de Buenos Aires en el abasto de carne de la Ciudad, con el objetivo de identificar y explicar las principales características de la obligación o remate del abasto de carne, los asuntos y problemas más frecuentes, su tratamiento y resolución por parte de las autoridades. Nuestra hipótesis sostiene que el monopolio fue el principal mecanismo de abastecimiento alimenticio entre las décadas de 1720 y 1750, pero que, dentro de dicho período, se fueron dando importantes cambios en las prácticas ganaderas y comerciales. Para cumplir con lo planteado, nos basamos en el análisis sistematizado de los Acuerdos del Extinguido Cabildo de Buenos Aires, relevados en el Archivo General de la Nación.

Luân lý Công giáo về sự sống con người
Authors: Nguyễn Văn Diệu
Published: June 2024

Mỗi người hiện hữu trên đời này đều là một công trình kỳ diệu của Thiên Chúa và chỉ riêng Ngài mới có quyền lấy lại sự sống ấy. Việc lấy đi mạng sống con người trong các cuộc chiến tranh, khủng bố, phá thai, làm chết êm dịu, tự sát… là những hình thức không những đi ngược lại với nền luân lý sự sống của Kitô giáo, mà còn chống lại công trình tạo dựng trong thần trí của Thiên Chúa có từ ngàn đời. Quyền được sống và sống hạnh phúc của con người phải được đặt lên trên các quyền về chính trị, kinh tế… Nếu một đất nước giàu mạnh về kinh tế, về chính trị, mà không có sự tôn trọng sự sống của con người; coi mạng sống con người như cỏ rác, muốn giết lúc nào tùy ý, thì đất nước ấy trước sau gì cũng biến động và lụi tàn. Hoặc nếu con người không coi sự sống của người khác như chính sự sống của chính mình thì trước sau gì họ cũng trở thành một kẻ tàn ác và cô đơn nhất. Thiên Chúa muốn con người phải sống lệ thuộc vào nhau, người này phải liên đới với người kia. Vì vậy “không ai có thể sống mà không liên kết với người khác.”
Abstract
Every person existing in this world is a miraculous work of God, and only He has the right to take back that life. The act of taking human lives in wars, terrorism, abortion, euthanasia, suicide, and others are not only contrary to Christian ethical life but also against the divine creation that has existed since time immemorial. The right to live and live happily must be prioritized above all political and economic rights. If a country is economically and politically powerful but does not respect human life, viewing human life as worthless and taking it whenever desired, that country will eventually face turmoil and decline. Similarly, if a person does not regard others' lives as they do their own, they will eventually become a cruel and lonely individual. God wants people to depend on one another, each person interconnected with others. Thus, 'no one can live without being connected to others.'
Tính luân lý của việc phá thai và an tử theo Giáo lý Công giáo
Authors: Trần Phong
Published: June 2024

Tác giả đặt ra vấn đề nan giải của phá thai và an tử trong xã hội hiện đại. Phá thai được nhìn nhận như một hành vi gây ra tổn thương cho sự sống con người, trong khi đó, an tử lại được đặt trong bối cảnh của quyền tự do cá nhân và nhân đạo. Tranh luận xoay quanh hai vấn đề này đang diễn ra sôi nổi, đặc biệt trong bối cảnh của sự gia tăng của chủ nghĩa tương đối và cá nhân, cùng với sự lan rộng của trào lưu tục hóa. Tuy nhiên, việc này đang đe dọa đến nhận thức và nguyên tắc luân lý cơ bản của con người. Tác giả kêu gọi sự hiểu biết về quan điểm chính thức của Giáo hội về phá thai và an tử, nhấn mạnh vào ý nghĩa của hồng ân sự sống và tầm quan trọng của việc tôn trọng và bảo vệ sự sống, xem đó là một món quà và ý định của Thiên Chúa, không phụ thuộc vào quyết định của con người. Đồng thời, tác giả cũng khuyến khích việc truyền đạt thông điệp này để giúp người khác hiểu rõ hơn về giá trị của sự sống và ý nghĩa của hồng ân.
Abstract
The author raises the challenging issues of abortion and euthanasia in modern society. Abortion is seen as an act causing harm to human life, whereas euthanasia is situated within the context of individual freedom and humanitarianism. Debates surrounding these two issues are fervent, particularly in the context of the rise of relativism and individualism, along with the widespread trend of secularization. However, this trend threatens the understanding and basic ethical principles of humanity. The author calls for an understanding of the official standpoint of the Church on abortion and euthanasia, emphasizing the significance of the grace of life and the importance of respecting and protecting life as a gift and intention of God, not dependent on human decisions. At the same time, the author encourages the dissemination of this message to help others understand more clearly the value of life and the significance of grace.
Posiciones sindicales y técnico-docentes en torno a las políticas de inclusión educativa en Uruguay
Authors: Conde Stefanía
Published: June 2024

En este trabajo se analizan las posiciones sindicales y técnico-docentes en torno a las políticas de inclusión educativa desarrolladas en educación secundaria en el contexto de los tres períodos de gobierno progresista en Uruguay (2005-2019). A partir de los aportes del Análisis Político de Discurso (APD) en el campo educativo, se aborda la categoría “posiciones sindicales y técnico-docentes” y se identifican las diferentes configuraciones discursivas sobre las políticas de inclusión educativa y su relación con la forma liceal. Metodológicamente, se trabaja desde un enfoque cualitativo a partir de entrevistas realizadas a referentes del ámbito sindical y técnico-docente. El análisis realizado permite analizar algunas de las disputas y tensiones inscriptas en las discusiones sobre las relaciones entre políticas de inclusión educativa y forma liceal, así como entre educación y procesos de desigualdad.
Nuevas derechas y disputas políticas del derecho a la educación : Atlas Network y la privatización educativa en América Latina
Authors: Jarquín Ramírez Mauro , Díez-Gutiérrez Enrique
Published: June 2024

Este artículo analiza las principales estrategias de intervención de las organizaciones socias de Atlas Network en los sistemas educativos de América Latina, con el fin de construir una aproximación sistematizada a un actor complejo que ha logrado impactar y en el panorama regional de las derechas. Además de analizar el proyecto educativo de Atlas, se discuten tres estrategias de intervención cuyo fin es avanzar en la agenda de privatización educativa: a) promoción de mercados educativos; b) oferta de servicios educativos “liberales”; y c) activismo universitario. De esta forma, se muestra la capacidad de articulación e incidencia de dichos grupos, así como la importancia de construir conocimiento sistematizado que fortalezca la lucha en defensa del derecho a la educación.
Transformación en las percepciones de estudiantes universitarios del AMBA (Argentina) acerca del derecho a la educación superior : tensiones y sentidos en disputa
Authors: Poliak Nadina , Pogré Paula
Published: June 2024

En Argentina, la obligatoriedad de la escuela secundaria, la creación de nuevas universidades públicas y la implementación de políticas contribuyeron a un mayor acceso a la educación superior. Entenderla como derecho ha sido una conquista de los inicios de este siglo. Hasta hace algunos años, este derecho social –si bien puesto en cuestión desde ciertos sectores de poder y medios de comunicación– era fuertemente defendido por lxs estudiantes que, generalmente, eran los primeros en sus familias que accedían a la universidad. En este artículo presentamos los resultados de un estudio cualitativo que retoma un corpus de entrevistas realizadas en el marco de la materia Desafíos de la Profesión Docente en la Universidad Nacional de General Sarmiento (Buenos Aires, Argentina). Las entrevistas dan cuenta de cambios en las percepciones de lxs estudiantes, y de cómo ha ganado espacio la defensa del examen de ingreso y el arancelamiento.
