Historia oral: ¿una historia popular?
Authors: Rodríguez Rojas Pedro , García Yépez Janette
Published: June 2016

El artículo empieza por reconocer la importancia de reivindicar una historia popular que revalorice el papel de los actores tradicionalmente excluidos —en oposición a la historia convencional de las élites—, por lo cual su propósito principal consiste en develar los intereses políticos que, bajo discursos populistas, sobredimensionan los testimonios orales para hacerlos pasar como equivalentes a la historia, en detrimento de las filosofías y teorías que, aun con sus deficiencias, han construido la cientificidad de la historiografía.
En busca de la alteridad
Authors: Muñoz Marín César Augusto
Published: June 2016

Con base en el trabajo etnográfico que supone de acompañamiento de familiares de personas desaparecidas, el artículo analiza cómo, históricamente, la racionalización de la muerte, un fenómeno típicamente occidental, ha devenido en procesos de exclusión y de doble negación del otro: de su vida y de su muerte. El ensayo finaliza con algunas consideraciones deliberadamente inconclusas sobre las representaciones mediáticas sobre la muerte y la desaparición forzada.
A formação de hábitos e a origem das leis na VII Conferência de Cambridge, de Ch. S. Peirce
Authors: Ibri Ivo Assad
Published: June 2016

O presente artigo reflete sobre os argumentos propostos por Charles Sanders Peirce em sua conhecida VII Conferência de Cambridge, proferida em 1898, sob o título “Hábito”, na qual justifica a sua posição acerca de como seria possível explicar a origem do universo através de uma filosofia de caráter genético. Essa explicação toma, no interior de seu complexo sistema arquitetônico de pensamento, a tendência à aquisição de hábitos como o princípio explicativo fulcral sobre a origem e a evolução das Leis da Natureza. Peirce adota tal princípio como aquele que sustentaria uma afinidade entre mente e matéria.
The Virtue of Knowing-How
Authors: L. Santos Felipe Rocha
Published: June 2016

Intellectualists about knowledge-how state that knowledgehow is a kind of propositional knowledge. Anti-intellectualists try to show that there are cases where the agent has knowledge-how without knowing-that. This paper focuses on recent anti-intellectualists’ arguments by Carter and Pritchard. I argue that Carter and Pritchard’s arguments are not well succeeded and that, if we apply virtue epistemology to this debate, we can conclude that knowledge-how shares the same epistemic properties as propositional knowledge. If this is correct, we can say that knowledge-how is a kind of propositional knowledge and intellectualism is safe again.

Gender inequality in Muslim-majority countries: Myths versus facts
Authors: Doğan Nezahat
Published: June 2016

The study uses a cross-sectional data set for 209 countries in order to test whether the regulation of social life by Islamic norms and values is related to gender inequality and whether the impacts differ for the MENA countries, as well as Arab- and Muslim-majority countries. The study finds that the impact of gender inequality differs for the MENA, Arab- and Muslim-majority countries only when control variables are excluded from the regressions. The paper obtains empirical evidence against the belief that religion and oil are culprits responsible for holding women back in Muslim countries.
Verification of the relationship between FDI and GDP in Poland
Authors: Kosztowniak Aneta
Published: June 2016

The paper analyses the impact of the factors of production on economic growth in Poland in the years 1992–2012, with particular focus on the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI), and strives to verify whether a causality relationship occurred between GDP and FDI, i.e. whether high GDP dynamics attracted FDI inflows and whether this investment contributed to GDP growth. The Vector Error Correction Method impulse responses and variance decomposition analysis confirmed the bi-directional relationships between FDI and GDP in Poland. However, the impact of GDP on attracting FDI inflows to Poland is stronger than that of FDI on GDP growth. Polish developmental policy should concentrate on three essential determinants (pillars) of growth, namely employment growth, attracting FDI (with emphasis on improvement in the type of inflowing investment), and increasing the value and productivity of domestic investment.

Published: June 2016

We provide an updated checklist of the anurans of the Salto Morato Nature Reserve (SMNR), Paraná, southern Brazil, including information on species endemism, conservation status, habitat use, and reproductive modes. We sampled the study area between February 2013 and July 2015, using Visual Encounter Surveys, totaling 700 hours of sampling effort. We supplement our primary data with secondary data (published papers and voucher specimens), and through these, we found a total of 54 anuran species representing 23 genera and 10 families. All the frogs recorded are endemic to the Atlantic Forest. Although no species has been listed asEndangered on the Red Lists of Paraná state, Brazil, and the IUCN, five are classified as Data Deficient. Most of the species recorded were arboreal (55.5%), a third were terrestrial (33.3%), and the remainders were rheophilic (11.1%). We identified 18 different reproductive modes, with types 1 (lay eggs in lentic water where the tadpoles develop) and 23 (direct development of terrestrial eggs) being the most common. Our findings indicate that the SMNR currently has the greatest diversity of anuran species and reproductive modes of any area in southern Brazil.
ANÁLISE SOCIOECONÔMICA DOS CATADORES DE LIXO NO DISTRITO FEDERAL
Authors: Moura Galeno Ribeiro de , Serrano André Luis Marques , Guarnieri Patricia
Published: June 2016

O gerenciamento dos resíduos e o papel dos catadores como agentes ambientais vêm ganhando destaque nos últimos anos devido à sanção da Lei 12.305/10 que trata da Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos – PNRS. Apesar do reconhecimento desses profissionais, na implementação da PNRS, ainda é notória a condição subhumana em que muitos catadores vivem no país. Atualmente, na XXV Região Administrativa SCIA – Estrutural, está localizado um dos maiores lixões a céu aberto da América Latina. O objetivo desta pesquisa é verificar a evolução econômica promovida pela melhoria na renda da população da Região Administrativa da Cidade Estrutural, que proporcionou um decréscimo no índice Gini, bem como analisar as condições dos catadores de materiais recicláveis organizados em associações e cooperativas neste processo. Para isso, utilizou-se como base a Pesquisa Distrital por Amostragem Domiciliar - PDAD, realizada pela CODEPLAN nos anos de 2004 e 2011. Com base nos dados apresentados na PDAD 2004 e 2011, verificou-se, uma melhoria na renda familiar da população, residente na Cidade Estrutural, representada pela diminuição das famílias com renda de até dois salários mínimos e o aumento das famílias com renda de dois a cinco salários. No entanto, ao restringir a pesquisa aos catadores de materiais recicláveis, identificou-se que esses, em sua maioria, apresentam rendimentos próximos a um salário mínimo mensal.

Published: June 2016

O consumo de água em uma planta de café conilon cultivado em lisímetro foi avaliado. O experimento objetivou estudar a transpiração diária do café e foi realizado no Departamento de Energia Nuclear da UFPE, em Recife – PE, em 2011, por meio de dois métodos: a) lisimetria, por análise de variação de massa; b) fluxo de seiva via método térmico do balanço de calor no caule. A área foliar variou de 1,39 a 1,87 m2 durante o experimento. O consumo de água medido através do lisímetro variou entre 2,61 L a 5,16 L com média de 3,86 L por dia. A demanda atmosférica foi determinada com dados obtidos em duas estações meteorológicas, uma situada próximo ao lisímetro, e a outra, distante cerca de um quilômetro, situada no pátio externo do CRCN. A transpiração medida pelo fluxo de seiva via método térmico subestimou em 10% as medidas realizadas no lisímetro. Os resultados do estudo indicaram grande precisão na estimativa da transpiração do café conilon.

Published: June 2016

Environmental issues in urban areas have been increasingly discussed in the construction of smart and sustainable cities. Thus, public green spaces have become the focus of studies for bringing several contributions to the urban environment, as well as provide many ecosystem services. However, it is important to know how users of these green spaces perceive the environment around them, especially in the context of creating new parks in areas with intense human settlements. The aim of this study was to investigate the ecological knowledge of residents surrounding an urban green area in the east zone of São Paulo city, which became municipal park after the end of this study. The Municipal Park Jardim da Conquista (PMJC) is located in an area considered one of the largest human settlements in Brazil and the world. 675 interviews were carried out with people living around the urban park in 2013. The profile of the supposed goers varies between 20 and 30 years, belonging predominantly to C economic class and also with sporadic profile of visiting the park. The interviewed people related these green spaces with leisure and biodiversity conservation. In addition, residents attribute part of the care and preservation of the park to themselves. This work highlights the user profile of a new park in the city of São Paulo, as well as their knowledge of some ecological aspects of an urban park.

Abstract Larvae and adults of certain species of predator lady beetles feed on pollen, guaranteeing their survival, and at times, reproduction in the absence of preferred prey. Palynology, therefore, may contribute in the investigation of botanical families visited by these predators in order to obtain this floral resource. There are records of the visitation of Apiaceae flowers by Coleomegilla maculata DeGeer, 1775 (Coleoptera, Coccinellidae), but not the ingestion of their pollen grains by this lady beetle. The external morphology of pollen grains of three Apiaceae aromatic species (Anethum graveolens L., Coriandrum sativum L., Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) was characterized, and it was evaluated the ingestion of these pollens by fourth instar larvae and adults of C. maculata upon confinement along with flowers of these Apiaceae for 24 and 48 hours. The pollen grains of those species presented similar external morphology. In the two times of exposure, the larvae ingested the same amount of pollen from the three Apiaceae species, and the amount of C. sativum pollen ingested was the same between larvae and adults. The amount of A. graveolens pollen grains ingested by the adults was significantly greater than the pollens of C. sativum and F. vulgare, in 24 hours, with the opposite occurring in 48 hours. In the first 24 hours, the adults ingested more A. graveolens pollen than the larvae, with the opposite occurring with F. vulgare. There was no significant difference in the amount of Apiaceae pollen ingested between larvae and adults in 48 hours. The results suggest that the pollen-eating habits of certain aphidophagous lady beetles may be crucial in their preservation within agro-ecosystems.

Authors: Battaglino Jorge
Published: June 2016

Este artículo analiza la dinámica de la intervención de una fuerza intermedia como la Gendarmería Nacional (GN) de la Argentina en la lucha contra el tráfico ilegal de drogas. El argumento principal es que la elevada percepción de inseguridad y los límites legales a la participación de los militares han favorecido el creciente empleo de la GN. Asimismo, el trabajo identifica los desafíos y limites que enfrenta la intervención de esta institución. En particular, se examina su despliegue en las provincias del norte de la Argentina (Jujuy, Salta, Formosa, Corrientes y Misiones), como así también en el área metropolitana de la ciudad de Buenos Aires. El artículo se fundamenta en un extenso trabajo de campo en las provincias del norte del país que incluyó un total de 90 entrevistas a los actores involucrados.
Impunidad y disuasión criminal del control anticorrupción en Ecuador: el caso de la Comisión Anticorrupción 1998 - 2008
Authors: Olivo Espín Cielito Berenice
Published: June 2016

La eficiencia de la política de control de un Estado tiene la doble tarea de generar incentivos adecuados en los agentes públicos y privados, que los disuadan de cometer actos ilícitos, sin descuidar el ejercicio de un nivel óptimo de control (Polinsky y Shavell 2007), que minimice el costo social del delito . La teoría económica del comportamiento criminal propone su abordaje, a partir de criterios de elección racional, relativos a las preferencias estables de los agentes y sus incentivos hacia un comportamiento ilícito, sin consideraciones de categoría moral. El modelo teórico de disuasión criminal (Becker 1968) relaciona los posibles incentivos de los agentes, respecto de la capacidad de disuasión de los sistemas de control y la percepción de eficiencia de su funcionamiento, lo que permite contar con información para un análisis predictivo sobre el comportamiento estratégico de las personas y establece parámetros para el análisis de las políticas de control, a partir de una perspectiva económica. El artículo formula un ejercicio de aplicación del modelo teórico de disuasión criminal (Becker 1968), para la actividad de control de la corrupción, a partir del caso de la Comisión Anticorrupción de Ecuador, en el período 1998 - 2008.
ETHICAL ASPECTS OF REGIONAL ECONOMY
Authors: Amantova-Salmane Liene
Published: June 2016

In the beginning of economic history, economics as a social science was closely related to ethics and had a moral dimension. The works of Aristotle and Adam Smith show that the science of economics has evolved taking into consideration the ethical stand. However, during the twentieth century, ethics was not considered in the economic analysis, but this situation transformed and ethics became a part of economics. Removing ethics from economics also removes social responsibility and critical awareness. This research analyzes the ethical aspects of regional economy. Regional economy has an ethical dimension because its main goal is to reduce the disparities between regions. There is carried out a brief reference to the relationship between ethics and economy. In the following article there are analysed ethical aspects of regional policy.

In the conditions of crisis the government began to stimulate the formation of micro commercial enterprises. As the result the number of micro enterprises in Latgale remained at the pre-crisis level, whereas the number of small, medium and large enterprises decreased. Balanced development of the national economy presumes development of enterprises of all size, which mainly depends on their financial condition. The study aims at investigating the financial condition of micro and small as well as medium and large enterprises to find out the possibilities of their future development taking into account their capacities to raise their own capital and attract capital from outside including bank loans, thus diminishing Latgale’s lagging behind the Latvian average level.
COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF TERMS RELATED TO “WILLS” AND “TRUSTS” IN GEORGIAN AND ENGLISH LANGUAGES (ACCORDING TO “THE CIVIL CODE OF GEORGIA”, “COMMON LAW” AND THE LAW OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA)
Authors: Gvelesiani Irina
Published: June 2016

Problems associated with the transference of the property acquired pressing urgency with the change of political life of Georgia (from Socialism to Capitalism). The drastic changes of Georgian political and economic systems cause the creation of new institutions. On-going processes influence the sphere of law and its terminology. The establishment of new legal institutions facilitates the emergence of the so-called “empty gaps” – the unnamed elements of the system of concepts. Therefore, it is of particular importance to formulate the system of basic terminological units and clarify their precise meaning. The given paper offers the comparative analysis of the terms related to “wills” and “trusts” in Georgian and English languages according to the data of the contemporary monuments of law. It shows the similarities and differences of Georgian and English terminological systems. Therefore, the necessity of the creation of new lexical units (in order to “fill” the so-called “empty gaps”) is singled out and revealed.

When the law on the rights of patients came into force on March 1, 2010 the normative regulations regarding the patient’s will became more nuanced and detailed. However, the normative acts still contain inconsistencies and change of approach in connection with patients’ legal capacity. The peculiarities of the practical application of the patients’ legal capacity institute also make foreruns for the transformation of theoretical understanding of patients’ legal capacity in medical treatment. For historical objective circumstances the legal practice is developed in connection with legal relationship of patient and treatment person/ institution in Latvia in contradistinction to western countries. Herewith the meaning of the normative regulations and rights doctrine in legal protection of patients’ legal capacity shall be emphasized.

Published: June 2016

The agriculture and dairy sectors are important integral parts of Latvian economy. Recently they have suffered a significant decline due to a price disparity and out–of–date technologies. At present most dairy farms work with losses or low profitability. As the effectiveness of labour force is the key prerequisite of successful agri–management, the comparative analysis of labour productivity of dairy farms in the Baltic States and the EU are performed. Special attention has been paid to the structure of labour force, revealing the proportion of paid labour in total labour resources. In contrast to previously done research the focus is on international comparison within the Baltic States and the EU average level.
IMPACT OF PARAMETERS CHARACTERIZING CLUSTERING ON DATA ANALYSIS RESULTS
Authors: Grabusts Pēteris
Published: June 2016

Clustering algorithms are used to group some given objects defined by a set of numerical properties in such a way that the objects within a group are more similar than the objects in different groups. All clustering algorithms have common parameters the choice of which characterizes the effectiveness of clustering. The most important parameters characterizing clustering are: metrics (the distance between cluster elements and cluster centre), number of clusters k and cluster validity criteria. The goal of the paper – to perform the evaluation of the validity of metrics’ choice, to describe the change with respect to the number of clusters for experimental data purposes and to evaluate the credibility of clustering results. As an input data the table describing the rating of Latvian state higher educational institutions for year 2011 has been used and the goal of the experiment was to show, how by using the clustering methods it is possible to analyze the mentioned data in an alternative way.

Authors: Karapetyan Zhenya , Shakhparyan Gohar , Arakelyan Aram
Published: June 2016

The analysis of advertising impact on the competitiveness and profit of the companies is given. The model of the companies, which agreed to implement product supplies with the same fixed price and have constant agreed expenditures, is considered. As the principle of optimality the company’s integral profit is studied. Fraction of the company’s expenditures elasticity profit is given. The paper develops a simple model for economic time – varying series presenting the data concerning number of the market attendances. The method of modeling uses a Fourier approximation to present series of the market attendances. The Fourier approximation allows for implementing of the selection of frequencies to be included in the model. It is shown that approach for the modeling provides approximation of the economic time – varying series with a form of nonlinearity. Using daily data over the period of 2008:3– 2011:3, we have developed a model showing the nonlinear time – varying dependence of the variable presenting sequence of the number of market attendances.

Authors: Šahta Ingrīda , Baltiņa Ilze , Pūce Madara
Published: June 2016

Currently textiles are mainly produced in Asian countries. In Europe during the last years the textile production is sharply reduced. For the most part there are working those companies that have found a specific niche or flocked to the production of technical textile. Consequently, in Latvia the companies in this sector should also think about their products that could be able to compete on the open market. Textile with integrated electrical systems is a research area that combines innovations both in textile sector and electronics, as well as electrical engineering etc. The integration of Light emitting diodes in the textile products allows assigning of additional functions, such as the visibility on the street, or may serve as a fashion design. The paper provides analysis for applications of the opportunities of smart textile, the costs of production and materials, and the potential problems in the production process, as well as the possible ecological problems by manufacture, wear and recycling are also discussed. Some practical textile solutions with integrated electrical systems and LEDs are also offered.

Published: June 2016

At 01/09/2010, Micro–enterprise Tax Law came into force in Latvia. The Law permits paying of single micro–enterprise tax at the rate of 9% from turnover. Innovations of the article – there have been insufficient studies on impact of this law. The aim of the paper is to discover whether legislation amendments permit the enterprise to reduce costs via network of branches by restructuring thereof into micro– enterprises. The study is based on a case study. Used methodology: study of financial documents, PEST analysis, interview, questionnaire. During the study, cost/revenue analysis has been conducted, two cash flows have been created. Results of the study are summed up in conclusions and demonstrate that restructuring of branches into micro– enterprises permits the companies to increase profitability and to decrease the costs (question of the study has been answered affirmatively), competitiveness of company is growing, and the restructuring must emphasize surveyor's motivation as well.
QUALITY ANALYSIS REGARDING ADVERTISEMENTS OF SMALL AND MEDIUM–SIZED ENTERPRISES
Authors: Volvenkins Sergejs
Published: June 2016

The aim of the paper is to determine and analyse the quality of advertisements created by small and medium–sized enterprises (SMEs) of Latvia. SMEs often devote unreasonably little attention to the quality of making an advertisement regardless of the restrictions faced by SMEs in their activity: lack of resources, lack of marketing experience, scope of business activity, as well as tactical and strategic customer–oriented problems. The owners of SMEs do not have the required knowledge and experience in making efficient advertisements, entrepreneurs do not believe in the effect, which may be obtained from marketing communications by laying greater emphasis on other marketing activities and, thereby, underestimating the contribution of advertising in relation to promotion of products in the market.

Hardy Type Asymptotics for Cosine Series in Several Variables with Decreasing Power-Like Coefficients
Authors: Kozyakin Victor
Published: June 2016

The investigation of the asymptotic behavior of trigonometric series near the origin is a prominent topic in mathematical analysis. For trigonometric series in one variable, this problem was exhaustively studied by various authors in a series of publications dating back to the work of G. H. Hardy, 1928. Trigonometric series in several variables have got less attention. The aim of the work is to partially fill this gap by finding the asymptotics of trigonometric series in several variables with the terms, having a form of `one minus the cosine' up to a decreasing power-like factor.The approach developed in the paper is quite elementary and essentially algebraic. It does not rely on the classic machinery of the asymptotic analysis such as slowly varying functions, Tauberian theorems or the Abel transform. However, in our case, it allows obtaining explicit expressions for the asymptotics and extending to the general case of trigonometric series in several variables classical results of G. H. Hardy and other authors known for the case of one variable.
Equipment of Sets with Cardinality of the Continuum by Structures of Polish Groups with Haar Measures
Authors: Pantsulaia Gogi Rauli
Published: June 2016

It is introduced a certain approach for equipment of sets with cardinality of the continuum by structures of Polish groups with two-sided (left or right) invariant Haar measures. By using this approach we answer positively Maleki’s certain question (2012) what are the real k-dimensional manifolds with at least two different Lie group structures that have the same Haar measure. It is demonstrated that for each diffused Borel probability measure defined in a Polish space (G;ρ;Bρ(G)) without isolated points there exist a metric ρ1and a group operation ⊙ in G such that Bρ(G) = Bρ1(G) and (G;ρ1;Bρ1(G);⊙) stands a compact Polish group with a two-sided (left or right) invariant Haar measure μ , where Bρ(G) and Bρ1(G) denote Borel σ-algebras of subsets of G generated by metrics ρ and ρ1, respectively. Similar approach is used for a construction of locally compact non-compact or non-locally compact Polish groups equipped with two-sided (left or right) invariant quasi-finite Borel measures.
Le massacre de la mariée
Authors: Van der Velden Bastiaan
Published: June 2016

Le Massacre des innocents a été pour Marcel Duchamp l’une de ses sources en composant Le Grand Verre. Ce ‘massacre’ est dans ce cas plus précisément une attraction foraine. D’autre part l’infanticide à Bethlehem constitue un sujet maintes fois représenté par différents peintres. Pour Alfred Jarry, auteur littéraire et de théâtre qui a plus particulièrement inspiré Duchamp, le tableau Le Massacre des innocents de Breughel l’Ancien était une pièce clé qui lui permettait de démontrer pourquoi il rejetait l’art historisant en peinture et dans le théâtre.
Étang donné
Authors: Houppermans Sjef
Published: June 2016

L’étang aux grèbes qui figure dans L’Étoile au front, pièce de théâtre de Raymond Roussel datant de 1924, cache non seulement un précieux trésor, mais est également une parfaite mise en abyme de sa poétique, où l’homonymie et les doubles occupent le premier rang. L’étang donné, l’équation se devine. Marcel Duchamp était surtout fasciné par le ver roussellien des Impressions d’Afrique, roman de 1910,  qu’il mit à toutes les sauces. Pourtant son dernier chef d’œuvre, Étant donnés, installation qu’il a construite entre 1946 et 1966, pourrait bien se connecter avec le fameux étang. Pour varier les perspectives on aboutira à certains collages.
De la difficulté d'être soi: phénomènes de désubjectivation chez les personnages romanesques de Bon, Mauvignier et Serena
Authors: Martin-Achard Frédéric
Published: June 2016

Confrontés à une forme d’injonction sociale à devenir soi, de nombreux personnages de romans contemporains optent pour diverses stratégies de fuite et de disparition. Or, ces tactiques de résistance à une mécanique sociale qui impose à l’individu de se réaliser ne semblent pas à la portée de tous. Dans les romans de Bon, Mauvignier et Serena, les individus semblent au contraire subir différentes formes de désubjectivation, d’impossibilité à être soi. L’étude de ces phénomènes d’indistinction, d’aliénation et de désincarnation permet in fine d’établir des conditions minimales nécessaires à l’existence de ces sujets incertains.
Traduction de 'De bruid van Marcel Duchamp' de K. Schippers. Notes accompagnant la traduction du neuvième chapitre, « Amsterdam ».
Authors: Wambacq Judith , Richert Camille
Published: June 2016

Le roman de K. Schippers, De Bruid van Marcel Duchamp, publié en 2010 aux éditions Querido (Amsterdam), est l'expression de l’admiration nourrie depuis ses débuts par l'auteur pour Marcel Duchamp. Dans les années 1960, Schippers se distingue par l'introduction du ready made dans la poésie néerlandophone. Contrairement à la quantité d'ouvrages consacrés à Duchamp, Schippers a conçu  l'écriture de ce roman en fonction de son contenu : pour restituer l'esprit duchampien, Schippers ne procède pas à une énième analyse ou à l'élaboration de nouveaux paradigmes d'étude, mais travaille sur le style. Son roman est un mélange des genres policier et biographique, ponctué d’éléments sur la réception de Duchamp aux Pays-Bas dans les années 1960. Schippers part de la question « Qui est la mariée qui figure si souvent dans l'œuvre de Duchamp ? ». Tel un enquêteur, il tente de résoudre cette question en se rendant sur les crime scenes, c'est-à-dire sur tous les lieux où Duchamp a vécu et travaillé. Il y mène des entretiens avec les amis de Duchamp ou leur famille afin de mieux comprendre qui était cet artiste qui aimait se draper de mystère et qui voulait faire de sa vie une œuvre d'art.

En este trabajo, se presenta una propuesta para implementar los Índices de Capacidad de un Proceso como herramienta para medir la efectividad de un proceso social. Estos índices son ampliamente empleados en la industria de productos de consumo, pero no es clara la forma como pueden ser usados en el control de procesos sociales. El trabajo se centra en el análisis de aquellos procesos que no están normalmente distribuidos y que por lo tanto, en una primera aproximación teórica, no son susceptibles de ser controlados con el uso de Índices de Capacidad. Mediante un doble ejemplo aplicado al caso de la deserción en las universidades colombianas, se ofrece una metodología detallada de cómo solucionar el problema de la no normalidad de los datos con el uso de la transformación de Box-Cox, la distribución de Weibull y el método de percentiles de Clements. De esta manera, se demuestra la aplicabilidad de los métodos y a contrastados en otros ámbitos, a casos concretos de deserción en las universidades colombianas. El método de índices de capacidad puede usarse para evaluar el proceso de deserción y definir las metas reales de deserción, posibles de cumplir. Se propone además, que esta metodología sea usada en el control de otros procesos sociales.
Las necesidades mundiales de agua y la Antártida como reserva natural: ¿puede explotarse el agua Antártica?
Authors: Villamizar Lamus Fernando
Published: June 2016

La carencia de agua potable es cada vez más sensible para satisfacer las crecientes demandas mundiales. En ese escenario, la Antártida, una de las mayores reservas de agua, puede jugar un rol muy importante, especialmente por la creciente tendencia de creación de instrumentos internacionales e interpretaciones de los mismos para que los Estados garanticen el derecho al agua potable. El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar, mediante un método cualitativo, si jurídicamente sería posible explotar agua antártica, pese a las prohibiciones contenidas en el Protocolo de Madrid. Para ese fin, se estudiarán los instrumentos internacionales que pretenden obligar a los Estados a satisfacer las necesidades de agua potable a sus ciudadanos. A reglón seguido, se estudia la estructura del Sistema del Tratado Antártico y cómo la Antártida podría ser una solución para satisfacer las crecientes necesidades del recurso hídrico, particularmente por lo acordado en el Acta Final de la XI Reunión Consultiva Especial del Tratado Antártico, que puede ser la llave para la explotación de agua antártica, en forma de hielo, pero que los dilemas políticos que esa práctica conllevaría requieren de un consenso muy difícil de lograr, salvo que sea por situaciones excepcionales que lo permitan.

Published: June 2016

Penelitian ini fokus pada pemahaman tentang zakat profesi menurut elit agama Kota  Malang, dan bagaimana konstruk elit agama Kota Malang dalam menunaikan zakat profesi. hasil penelitian dan analisis data, sesuai dengan rumusan penelitian yang diajukan di awal, peneliti menarik beberapa kesimpulan sebagai berikut: Zakat profesi menurut elit agama kota Malang adalah zakat yang wajib dikeluarkan oleh seseorang dengan penghasilan tertentu setelah mencapai nishab dan haul (dalam jangka waktu satu tahun). Konstruks elit agama kota Malang terhadap zakat profesi adalah: Semua subyek penelitian, baik dari Muhammadiyah, Nahdlatul Ulama’, dan Majelis Ulama’ Indonesia menyatakan bahwa zakat profesi hukumnya wajib. Hal ini didasarkan atas keumuman lafadz tentang perintah zakat dalam al-Qur’an dan qiyas aulawi terhadap lafadz tentang perintah zakat pertanian. Sedangkan dalam menentukan nisab untuk zakat profesi semua berpandangan bahwa zakat profesi diqiyaskan dengan zakat emas dan perdagangan. Hanya saja terdapat perbedaan dalam prosentasenya. Muhammadiyah menyatakan bahwa prosentase zakat profesi sebanyak 2,5%. Sedangkan dari Nahdlatul Ulama’ menyatakan bahwa prosentasenya mulai 2,5%-3,3%. Sementara itu, untuk MUI terdapat dua pandangan, yaitu 2,5 % dan 2,5% - 5% untuk kehatia-hatian (ihtiyath). Adapun waktu pelaksanaan zakat profesi, yaitu tidak menunggu nishab dan haul tetapi langsung pada waktu menerima penghasilan.
Hukum Islam dan Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga
Authors: Syawqi Abdul Haq
Published: June 2016

Al-Quran dan al-Hadis merupakan teks pedoman bagi umat Islam dalam segala hal. Baik itu dalam beribadah dan bermuamalah. Pada titik ini posisi agama mempunyai peran yang sangat vital dalam mengarahkan penganutnya ke arah yang benar. Akan tetapi bagaimana apabila dalam teks-teks tersebut tampak berseberangan dengan konteksnya. hal ini bisa kita temukan dalam al Quran surat al Nisa (4) ayat 34 yang berbicara tentang nusyuz. Al Quran dalam ayat ini memerintahkan untuk memukul istri yang berbuat nusyuz tersebut, sementara di sisi yang lain UU Nomor 23 Tahun 2004 Tentang PKDRT (Penghapusan Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga) melarangnya dan dikategorikan sebagai tindakan pidana yang mempunyai konsekuensi-konsekuensi tertentu pula. Oleh karena itu tulisan ini mencoba mengkompromikan kedua hal tersebut.

Tourism has been and will continue to be one of the biggest and most profitable industries in the world. Sport is obviously a very important aspect of society in many different ways: culturally, economically and socially. Like in the past, local authorities continue to regard all sporting events as a way of promoting and positioning their destination. Participation in sport events relates to tourism because it also involves travelling to host destinations. Therefore, the aim of our study is to compare participation in small and large sport-for-all events in relation to tourism in Slovenia. We analysed the factors determining differences in the travel behaviours of sport event participants and certain aspects of participation (travel behaviour, frequency of sport event participation, reasons for participation) at the largest cycling event in Slovenia (the Franja cycling marathon) and two smaller cycling events (the “Three hearts Radenci” recreational cycling marathon and the “Around the region of Prlekija” recreational cycling marathon). The study analysed the active participants of different cycling sport events. The sample of respondents consisted of 382 participants. We found that over the third of the participants take on the role of a sport tourist in their travels. They are also very sport-active in their leisure time. The majority of them are engaged in sport activities more than three times a week. The results indicate differences in travel behaviour and sport-active lifestyles among the participants of different types of small and larger sport events.
What kind of effects had the global economic crisis on the attendance of the NBA games?
Authors: Váczi Péter
Published: June 2016

The global economic crisis of 2008 had effects on the world at all levels of life. It caused serious problems and difficulties in professional sports as well. In my paper I will try to show what kind of effects the global economic crisis had on one of the best organised championships of the world. What effects it had on attendance? How this influenced the prices of the tickets to the matches?I am going to show those marketing and financial steps, which were made by the championship’s leader corp and the teams participating in it. I think the teams could moderate their losses by making different special offers, drafting new players and being opened for the foreign countries, I think this will lead to an increase in attendance in the next few years. Finally, I will try to make a future forecast of attendance.
The present of equine tourism in Hungary in reflection to an empirical research
Authors: Béki Piroska , Vágó Tímea , Lasztovicza Dóra
Published: June 2016

In the last years the necessity of developing equine tourism in Hungary has been called for by experts. Moreover, the government has spent a significant amount on constructing equestrian facilities all around the country, and has published equestrian brochures in order to attract foreign guests. On the contrary, little attention is paid to equestrian life inside Hungary, though it would be essential to create a Hungarian equestrian audience, so that more and more horse riders could regularly exercise different riding activities. A more economical operation of equestrian facilities is vital in order to achieve a busier domestic equestrian life, since it is currently self-supporting: it is covered exclusively by the incomes of horse riding. A reinforced financial support of the sector, however, would provide countless additional advantages for the economy. Moreover, enriched riding opportunities drive people back to nature, promote environmental awareness, and provide regular horse riding opportunities for a high number of riders. The present study aims at introducing an empirical survey research in the framework of which participants of Hungarian equestrian life and their features of touristic demand were investigated. The results of the research show that Hungarians riding on a regular basis are mostly attracted by affordable European riding holidays and riding study visits.
Success factors of international sporting events in different regions of Europe

Sport events always played an important role in human life from the ancient Olympics and marathon races to today’s modern Olympics, World and continental championships. In our days these remarkable sport events come to the fore because participants of the sporting world effectuate even more, greater and more varied ones. Furthermore, the competition for organisation between cities and countries is becoming more and more intense (Zeman 2005). The organisation of international sporting events is an extremely complicated and multiple task. The organising committee has to manage the duties and activities, to co-ordinate the participants’ work, to satisfy the needs of international sport association(s), sponsors and other stakeholders. Within the frame of the research we reveal the success factors of international sporting events in different segments of Europe, and in addition to this compare the event organization practices of analysed regions along the identified success factors. In this study we represent the results of a quantitative research, where organizers of World and European Championships – organised between 2000 and 2008 in different European countries – were asked and statistical analyses have been applied. According to our results beside the essential technical and task oriented areas the human aspects of organisation, the partnerships, coordination and communication are all-important factors. Especially in countries of East-Central Europe, where organisers have to pay more attention on selection, control of partners as well as on continuous communication with them in order to assure accurate performance in time.
