USO DO TERRITÓRIO NO OESTE DE SANTA CATARINA: PRODUÇÃO AVÍCOLA E AS CRISES DE ABASTECIMENTO / USE OF TERRITORY IN THE WEST OF STATE OF SANTA CATARINA, BRAZIL: POULTRY PRODUCTION AND THE SUPPLY CRISES
Authors: Ripplinger Fabiane , Scherma Ricardo Alberto , Nascimento Ederson
Published: June 2023

O presente estudo busca analisar a produção avícola, a sua relação com a produção de milho e as crises de abastecimento que ocorreram nos últimos anos, em especial em 2008, 2012 e 2016, na mesorregião Oeste de Santa Catarina. Com a intenção de compreender a dinâmica produtiva nessa região, mobilizaremos a categoria de análise “uso do território”. Essa categoria foi proposta por Milton Santos com a finalidade de realizar estudos baseados em abordagens territoriais em que o espaço é considerado como uma instância social. Foram realizadas análises com base em autores que estudaram a região, relatórios de empresas privadas e órgãos governamentais e banco de dados públicos. Os resultados da pesquisa mostram uma contradição entre a forte presença do circuito espacial avícola, que necessita de cereais (especialmente o milho) para abastecer as suas fábricas de ração, e a gradual redução das áreas de cultivo desse cereal no espaço agrícola regional. Abordamos, ainda, a presença de atores regionais não hegemônicos (sindicatos e cooperativas) que atuam preocupados com as questões do campo e buscam estimular, e mesmo organizar, uma produção agropecuária baseada no território, com vistas a mitigar e superar os problemas dos espaços rurais engendrados pelo uso corporativo do território.ABSTRACTThe present study seeks to analyze the poultry production, its relation with maize production and the supply crises that have occurred in recent years, especially in 2008, 2012 and 2016, in the western mesoregion of the state of Santa Catarina. With the intention of understanding the productive dynamics in this region, we will mobilize the analysis category of use of territory. This category was proposed by Milton Santos with the purpose of carrying out studies based on territorial approaches in which space is considered as a social instance. The analyses were performed based on authors who studied the region, reports of private companies and government agencies and public databases. The research results show a contradiction between the strong presence of the poultry space circuit, which requires cereals (especially maize) to supply the ration factories, and the gradual reduction of this cereal cultivation areas in the regional agricultural space. We also deal with the presence of non-hegemonic actors (unions and cooperatives) that work in the region concerned with the "field issues" and that seek to stimulate, and organize, an agricultural production based on the regional territory, with the objective of mitigating and overcoming the problems in the rural spaces engendered by the corporate use the territory.Keywords: Use of territory; Poultry production; Regional production of maize; Geopolitics of the place

Caracterización de la identidad profesional del profesorado en la educación superior con relación a la formación integral
Authors: Gómez Torres Francisco Hernando , Castro Gutiérrez Gelber Yesid , Romero Neisa William Harold
Published: June 2023

El propósito de este artículo es caracterizar la identidad profesional del profesorado en la educación superior en relación con la formación integral. Se han recogido datos de una muestra de 588 profesores en diferentes campos profesionales. Para el efecto, se diseñó un cuestionario tipo Likert que exploró tres dimensiones identitarias: creencias, teorías prácticas y sentimientos del profesorado, con relación a la formación ética y axiológica, aptitudinal, de las emociones y disciplinar. Los resultados se obtuvieron mediante análisis descriptivo, análisis factorial y frecuencias relativas, mostrando las preferencias identitarias de los profesores, dentro de lo que sobresalió la orientación hacia la formación de los sentimientos y la existencia de cuatro factores que corroboraron las dimensiones en estudio, además del carácter homogéneo de las preferencias de los profesores en relación con este ámbito de la docencia a pesar de sus diferencias profesionales. Los resultados son relativamente nuevos en el contexto de los estudios sobre la identidad.
Bollywood: nuevos contextos y nuevos públicos / Bollywood: New Contexts and New Audiences
Authors: Elena Alberto
Published: June 2023

Coincidiendo con algunos espectaculares éxitos de taquilla a mediados de los 90, el pujante cine popular hindi –Bollywood, de acuerdo con la terminología que acababa entonces de acuñarse–se adentró con paso firme en una nueva era, superando una crisis de creatividad bien apreciable en la década anterior y, sobre todo, renovando fórmulas expresivas en una dirección todavía difícil de determinar, pero indudablemente más atenta al público global que al tradicional espectador local. Limando aquellas aristas formales menos susceptibles de un consumo globalizado(o, simplemente, menos del gusto de un nuevo público joven y urbano en la propia India), asumiendo ciertos riesgos en el tratamiento de problemáticas delicadas y, a la postre, renegociando creativamente la propia herencia de la tradición del cine comercial hindi producido en Mumbai (Bombay), esta sensibilidad neo-Bollywood parece haberse impuesto con fuerza en los últimos quince años, al tiempo que las viejas fórmulas de consumo dejan paso a otras nuevas y, al calor de dicho proceso, se van configurando nuevos públicos que a su vez inciden de manera determinante sobre los propios mecanismos de producción.Palabras clave: Bollywood, globalización, públicos, industria cinematográfica, multiplex.AbstractCoinciding with some spectacular box office hits in the mid-90s, the buoyant popular Hindi cinema –Bollywood in the newly created terminology– firmly went into a new era. It overcame the creativity crisis of the previous decade and, above all, renewed formulas of expression in ways still hard to define, but without any doubt more attentive to the global public than to the traditional local one. This Neo-Bollywood sensitivity has gained strength in the last fifteen years by refining formal elements less acceptable for global consumption (or simply, those that are far removed from the tastes of the young urban Indian public); by taking some risks in the treatment of more controversial issues; and finally, by creatively renegotiating the inherited traditions of the commercial Hindi cinema produced in Mumbai (Bombay). At the same time, the old forms of consumption have given way to new ones and in the process new audiences have emerged that have a decisive impact on the mechanisms of production.Keywords: Bollywood, Globalization, Audiences, Film Industry, Multiplex.
Futuro en pretérito: apropiaciones visuales del pasado en la ciencia ficción distópica / Future in a Past Tense: Dystopian Sci-Fi and Visual Appropriations from the Past
Authors: Jackson-Martín Rafael
Published: June 2023

Aunque la ciencia ficción suele asociarse al futuro por su carácter de anticipación, desde la década de 1960 varios cineastas han decidido incorporar imágenes del pasado. Con ellas, no solo han querido reforzar la verosimilitud de sus propuestas sino, principalmente, poner en tela de juicio el concepto lineal de la historia y del progreso potenciado desde la Ilustración. El objeto de este artículo será analizar el porqué de su aparición y, sobre todo, explicar el modo en que son representadas aquellas imágenes del pasado –incluso del pasado reciente– en la ciencia ficción distópica propia de la cinematografía mainstream, especialmente desde finales delos años 70. Por ello, el campo de estudio abarca alguna de las producciones más emblemáticas de directores situados en la esfera capitalista anterior a la caída del muro de Berlín, dado que la liberación de esas imágenes reprimidas actúa, además, como un comentario acerca del sistema económico sobre el cual se sustentan.Palabras clave: distopía, pasado, represión, nostalgia, modernidad, arquitectura, ciudad, siniestro.AbstractAlthough Sci-Fi movies are usually associated with the future, since the 1960s several filmmakers decided to incorporate some visual repertories from the past. This inclusion was determined not only to reinforce the credibility of their proposals but mainly to put into question the linear concept of history and progress enhanced by the Western society. The purpose of this article is to analyze the reasons for its appearance and, above all, to explain how those images of the past are represented, even when they are related to recent times, into the Dystopian Sci-Fi created by the mainstream film-making, especially since the late 1970s. Thus, the field of study covers some of the most iconic productions made by filmmakers who live or were living in the West, before the fall of the Berlin Wall. Besides that, the release of those repressed images into their productions can be seen as a commentary on the economic system on which they were based.Keywords: dystopia, past, repression, nostalgia, Modernity, architecture, city, uncanny.
Oxidation of fully bleached paper-grade kraft pulps with H2O2 activated by Cu(Phen) and the effect of the final pH
Authors: Vera-Loor Andrea , Walger Elsa , Mortha Gérard , Marlin Nathalie
Published: June 2023

Hydrogen peroxide is an environmentally friendly bleaching chemical that is widely used in alkaline media in the pulp and paper industry. In this study, unconventional reaction conditions of the conventional bleaching P-stage were performed to evaluate its effect on cellulose. The objective was to “tailor” the cellulose degradation according to different applications, such as dissolving pulps. Different operating conditions were studied: pH variation (alkaline or acidic medium), as well as the addition of Cu(II) or the Cu(II)-phenanthroline complex. The hypotheses considered were (1) Using H2O2 in unconventional conditions will favor hemicelluloses removal after depolymerization and will lead to the desired cellulose degradation, and (2) H2O2 oxidation carried out under unconventional conditions will favor the dissolving ability of cellulose.
Characterization of ink pigment penetration and distribution related to surface topography of paper using confocal laser scanning microscopy
Authors: Li Ying , He Beihai
Published: June 2023

The penetration of ink into paper affects the final appearance of printing and the amount of ink usage. In this work, UV-curing fluorescent rose ink was used to investigate the penetration and distribution of the ink pigments as well as their correlation with the surface topography of paper. The ink penetration and distribution were characterized with Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM), whereas the microstructure of the paper surface was observed using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The AFM results showed that the surface of the paper coated with kaolin layer was the smoothest among the samples. Also the pore size of the calcium carbonate coating layer was smaller than that of the kaolin coating layer. Meanwhile, the pore size distribution of the calcium carbonate coating layer appeared to be relatively narrow, compared with other samples. The results of CLSM images indicated that the depth, size, and arrangement of pores affected the penetration depth and distribution of ink pigment on coated paper. The large pores led to deeper penetration of ink pigments, and uniform ink absorption occurred when the pore distribution was uniform. The UV-curing ink pigments not only set on the surface of the uncoated paper, but also they penetrated into the paper interior and adhered to the fiber surface.
Biomass of Mucor heimalis for the biosorption of cadmium from aqueous solutions: Equlibrium and kinetic studies
Authors: Srivastava Preeti , Hasan Syed Hadi
Published: June 2023

The present study deals with the utilization of a cellulosic material, i.e. fungal biomass of Mucor heimalis, for the removal of cadmium from aqueous solution in a batch system. Effects of various parameters such as pH, biomass dosage, contact time, and initial metal concentrations were investigated. The sorption of cadmium followed pseudo-second-order rate kinetics (R2=0.998). Intraparticle diffusion was found not to be the sole rate-controlling step. Thermodynamic studies revealed that the sorption of cadmium was feasible, spontaneous, and exothermic. Various isotherm models viz. Langmuir, Freundlich, Redlich–Peterson, Dubinin-Radushkevich, and Temkin isotherms were applied. The Langmuir and Redlich–Peterson models were found to be in good agreement with experimental data with high R2, low RMSE, and low χ2 values. The Redlich–Peterson isotherm constant g was found to be unity, which implies a good fit to the Langmuir model. The maximum sorption capacity calculated from the Langmuir isotherm was 85.47 mg/g at optimum conditions of pH 6.0, contact time of 35 min, biomass dosage of 1g/L, and temperature of 25 oC.
Modal frequencies to estimate the defect position in a flexural wooden beam
Authors: Roohnia Mehran , Manouchehri Negin , Tajdini Ajang , Yaghmaeipour Abdolsaber , Bayramzadeh Vilma
Published: June 2023

An inexpensive methodology is proposed to identify and locate a single defect within a wooden beam using free a flexural vibration technique. A similar approach has been introduced in the literature based on free longitudinal vibration, which was selected to be a leading frontier for the present research. The flexural vibration technique was tested for five groups of the absolutely clear specimens while holding a manually drilled hole at 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 of their total span. The beams were tested in free flexural vibration with both ends in a free condition before and after drilling, and relative shifts of modal frequencies due to the presence of the defects were measured and compared to their mathematically calculated values in a sinusoidal equation. Using the method of least squares, a coincidence factor was developed based on the differences of the measured and calculated shifts of the four initial resonance frequencies where the minimum district of the coincidence factor curves successfully indicated the defected area. Though the longitudinal vibration approach was promising enough to estimate the position of the defect, its combination with the flexural vibration might increase the degree of confidence in the identifications.
Identity construction and mechanisms of aggression
Authors: Burlachuk Victor
Published: June 2023

Most of the work on the study of identity is characterized mainly by an academic approach, when the concept is considered as a kind of special tool created for the study of society and the individual. There are various definitions of identification and identity. Basically, they boil down to the fact that identity is understood as the integrity of the individual, the identity and continuity of its development, despite the changes that occur to it. It is understood as well as the identification of the individual with any social group or class, the acceptance of its goals and values. At the same time, the legitimacy of this concept, its social conditionality by existing relations of power, is not called into question. The criticism of the concept lies in the fact that it is seen as ideologically biased, as a concept involved in mobile relations of power. The concept of identity underlies the act of official nomination, by which someone is awarded a certain right or title, as a socially recognized qualification. According to P. Bourdieu, this is one of the typical manifestations of the monopoly of legitimate symbolic violence, which belongs to the state or its official representatives. The construction means for us, the process of classification, when an individual tries to fit in or go beyond the boundaries of the nomination offered to him. In this case identity is not just a neutral concept but also a certain effect in the struggle for social dominance. The assertion of identity is associated with a certain form of power that extends to immediate life, classifies individuals into categories, characterizes them through their own individuality, binds them to their identity and imposes on them the law of truth

Authors: Tonkikh Iryna
Published: June 2023

У статті розглянуто трансформаційні процеси, що спостерігаються у функціонуванні публічних телеграм-каналів під час повномасштабного російського вторгнення. Запропоновано класифікацію сучасних напрямів розвитку телеграму, як-то: сервіс обміну миттєвими повідомленнями, додаткова платформа медіадіяльності, канал кросмедіа та самостійна медіаплатформа. Відповідно до ідентифікованих напрямів визначено функції різних видів новинних телеграм-каналів, зареєстрованих у розділі «Новини і ЗМІ» професійних журналістських (корпоративних та персональних) й аматорських, верифікованих та анонімних. Акцентовано на особливостях реалізації інформаційної функції під час війни, зокрема трансформації стандартів новинної журналістики, схарактеризовано специфіку комунікативної функції, а також функцій формування порядку денного та генерації трафіку на інші платформи кросмедіа в професійних журналістських телеграм-каналах (на прикладі «УП. Стрічка», «Радіо Свобода» та «Суспільне Новини»). З’ясовано перспективи використання публічних телеграм-каналів як самостійної медіаплатформи та каналу кросмедіа. Розглянуто особливості реалізації функцій формування громадської думки, соціальної організації (стимуляції суспільної активності) й громадянської самоорганізації в персональних журналістських та аматорських новинних телеграм-каналах у період повномасштабного вторгнення. Проаналізовано вплив аматорських каналів («Лачен пише», «Sternenko», «Николаевский Ванек») на зміну функцій новинних ресурсів у месенджері. Звернено увагу на деформацію стандартів новинної журналістики в неверифікованих анонімних телеграм-каналах.

Psychological Barriers and Resources of the Future Primary School Teachers’ Professional Success: The Cognitive Aspect
Authors: Handzilevska Halyna , Plyska Yuriy , Shershnova Olena , Shturkhetskyy Serhiy , Shyriaieva Tetiana
Published: June 2023

Aim. The article represents the results of research into the success of the students who are preparing themselves for teaching activity in the nearest future while obtaining their professional education. The aim of this research is to examine the notion of professional success, with the focus on the cognitive component of this process through the prism of purpose in life.
Methods. In accordance with a developed theoretical model of the professional success achieved by a person, empirical research was carried out on a sample of the future primary school teachers with the focus on the cognitive component. To realise the purpose and objectives of the paper, a set of tests (the Test of the Life-Sense Orientations; the Purpose-in-Life Test (PIL); and a questionnaire of early childhood decisions, etc. were used as diagnostic tools to find out the correlation between components of professional success. Statistical correlation was analysed with the use of Pearson’s correlation coefficient.
Results. The results of the correlation analysis between the indicators of personal readiness for change and the scenarios show a reversed two-way correlation between the indicators of the Confidence scale and the attributes “Don’t be, don’t be alive”, “Don’t be yourself”, “Be excellent”; between the metrics of the “Passion” scale and the “Don’t grow up”, “Don’t be yourself”.
Conclusion. It was found that meaningful orientations of the future primary school teachers and scenario settings like “Do Not Get Close, Don’t Love, Don’t Feel, Be Perfect, Try, function as psychological barriers to achieving professional success.
Culture of Reminiscence as a Part of Cultural Education
Authors: Jakubovská Kristína , Jakubovská Viera
Published: June 2023

Aim. The study explores the importance of culture of reminiscence with its identificational and integrational potential for the society and the ways that culture of reminiscence is applied within cultural institutions by means of cultural education.
Methods. We used several scientific methods such as relational and content analysis, observation, induction and heuristics.
Results. The research study summarises the role of cultural institutions within the culture of reminiscence and outlines various forms of reminiscence to be observed in cultural educational programmes. It explains the potential of cultural institutions and the roles they play within collective commemorating. It has interdisciplinary and applicational character and includes practical tips for cultural managers and cultural educators.
Conclusion. Collective memory is an important condition for reproduction of culture and cultural identities. Individual memory is determined by social and cultural contexts (reference to Maurice Halbwachs´s social frames of memory). Cultural education naturally works with the notions of collective memory, traditions, identity and reminiscence. At the same time, it resembles a tool by means of which cultural identity, character and collective memory of individuals and social groups can be consciously shaped. Beside identificational context, there is also a prospective integrational and inclusive potential of cultural education. Several forms of reminiscence are applied within cultural education: reminiscence as reconstruction; reminiscence as (re)interpretation; reminiscence as creation; reminiscence as prevention and civic involvement; reminiscence as a tool of forming cultural identity; reminiscence as an expert reflection.
Gendering Women: Body, Power and the Processes of Subjectivation
Authors: Ahmad Farhan
Published: June 2023

Thesis. This study tends to show how various social, cultural, and institutional factors work to discipline women by controlling their bodies at on one level and their thought process at another level.
Concept. The everyday life of women is a space in which the operation of power is manifested through various disciplinary techniques and punitive methods. The basis of such regulations is the result of the construction of gendered bodies.
Results and conclusion. The study sheds light on the ways the body is produced, shaped, and controlled by gendered social norms. The body is repeatedly gendered, and asked to conform to dominant gender norms. These factors affect women’s social and sexual behaviour and place them in a subservient position. The study reveals how while generating notions about the other ‘gender', the basic essence of ‘being human’ is often neglected. The claims for the equal space of women are to be fulfilled by formulating the possibility of a space for them which can go beyond the justified constructions of society.
Gender Digital Divide in Migratory Contexts: The Case of Peruvian Migrant Women in Italy and Spain
Authors: Ortiz Cobo Mónica , Jeri Levano Renzo Ismaél
Published: June 2023

Aim. This ethnographic study explores the impact of the digital divide within the collective of Peruvian migrant women employed in a highly precarious sector, such as domestic services.
Methods. This has become evident in this multisite and virtual ethnography, with the following objectives: to analyse the variables that affect digital exclusion, in addition to identifying and deepening the different digital competencies and uses of Information and communication technologies (ICT) in the migratory projects of Peruvian migrant women. In order to achieve these objectives, we undertook fieldwork during the COVID-19 pandemic in two contexts, Italy and Spain, using semi-structured interviews and virtual observation, during which we employed online social networks as research tools.
Results. Although digital inequality was a reality prior to COVID-19, it has been worsened by the pandemic, at which time we began our fieldwork. Inequalities between men and women in the different areas of society are reproduced within the context of new technologies. This is termed the gender digital divide and is considered a form of social exclusion, which intensifies and feeds back into itself. Gender inequality in terms of the use of ICT and digital skills intensifies in communities that are even more vulnerable, such as migrant women, whose plenary incorporation into information society is limited.
Conclusion. The use of ICT can aid in social inclusion of migrants in digitally advanced societies. However, Peruvian migrant women face new forms of social exclusion due to limited digital access, economic difficulties, and individual digital skills, leading to a gender and generational digital gap.
Análisis de la intervención institucional en la fase de egreso de la población menor de edad privada de libertad
Authors: Sánchez Guerrero Carmen , Castro Cerdas Maria José
Published: June 2023

El artículo analiza las diferentes formas de intervención institucional en personas menores de edad en fase de egreso que han sido sancionadas con la pena de privación de libertad. Se realiza una reflexión de las diferentes acciones u omisiones presentes en la intervención institucional (área educativa, área laboral, redes de apoyo o familiares) en el Centro Especializado Adulto Joven y el Centro de Formación Juvenil Zurquí. El enfoque se centra en programas que tienen un rol orientado al acompañamiento en fase de egreso, como el Programa Nacional de Atención a la Población Penal Juvenil y la Unidad de Inserción Social. Al mismo tiempo, se analizan otras fuentes de intervención institucional en fase de egreso desarrolladas desde las iniciativas de Acción Social de la Universidad de Costa Rica. El artículo se basa parcialmente en entrevistas a profundidad realizadas entre 2021 y 2022, a funcionarias expertas en materia penal juvenil e inserción social. Se concluye que en la intervención institucional durante la fase de egreso existe un vacío en la comprensión de elementos ideológicos y políticos a nivel estructural del sistema penitenciario, lo que se refleja en una ejecución violenta y desarticulada de la fase de egreso.
Policiar y urbanizar: una historia reciente de la ciudad de San José
Authors: Durán Luis Armando , Dávila Arias Diana
Published: June 2023

El objetivo del artículo es analizar algunas prácticas policiales y urbanas, condicionalmente relacionadas, en San José, capital de Costa Rica, a finales del siglo XX e inicios del siglo XXI. Para esto, se identifican tres momentos de la historia reciente de la ciudad considerando los postulados desarrollados por Michel Foucault en el seminario Seguridad, territorio, población. El primer momento es la creación de la Policía Municipal en el año de 1995 como cuerpo encargado de preservar el orden y del Plan Director Urbano como normativa de regulación de la ciudad. El segundo momento es la puesta en marcha del Programa de Regeneración y Repoblamiento en el año 2004 como iniciativa de recuperación urbana y de atracción de inversión inmobiliaria. El tercer momento es la aparición de un complejo sistema de videocámaras en el año 2008 como nueva red de vigilancia tecnológica. Finalmente, se concluye que la producción del espacio implica siempre la producción de la policía y que estos procesos deben entenderse de manera conjunta.

Authors: Chavarria Stuart Daniel
Published: June 2023

Mediante una metodología basada en el Análisis de Coyuntura (ADC) y el Análisis de Eventos de Protesta (AEP), el presente trabajo exploratorio se concentra en analizar la dinámica y las principales características de la jornada de protestas emprendida por el movimiento estudiantil autónomo universitario costarricense durante el período del 18 de julio al 25 de noviembre del 2019. En particular, este texto se concentra, por un lado, en comprender el desarrollo de la coyuntura de análisis en términos de actores, acontecimientos, escenarios y correlaciones de fuerza y, por otro lado, en reconstruir la jornada de movilizaciones en términos de los actores demandantes, repertorios de acción, demandas y actores demandados. Entre los resultados, se observa que la jornada a analizar estuvo marcada por repertorios de acción de carácter contencioso y simbólico, además, a pesar de lograr ciertos acuerdos importantes por varias razones, el movimiento fracasó en el cumplimiento de sus objetivos.
A recently discovered cameo and a few considerations on the glyptics from Apulum (Roman Dacia)
Authors: Ota Radu
Published: June 2023

In this paper, the author draws the attention of experts to a new glyphic discovery from Apulum. It is a schematic portrait of the Gorgon Medusa, depicted on a three-layered sardonyx. Based on parallels and the manufacturing technique, the author concludes that the piece originates from the workshops of Viminacium, Upper Moesia. The cameo is dated in the second half of the second century AD, prior the time when the canabae of the XIII Gemina legion rose to the status of municipium (ante AD 197). It is the only glyptic piece that bears the image of Medusa that's Dacian origin is certain. From an artistic point of view, it is a modest quality of execution, below the average provincial level. Furthermore, the author makes some remarks on the gems found in the collections of the National Museum of the Union in Alba Iulia, with a few additions and clarifications regarding the place of discovery and the possibility of the existence of a workshop of cavatores gemmarum at Apulum.
Partnership as a strategy to overcome the difficulties associated with policy implementation: South African teachers’ views
Authors: Teane Florah Moleko
Published: June 2023

The purpose of the study reported on here was to investigate the role of partnerships in helping in-service teachers overcome the difficulties associated with performing practical work prescribed in the Life Sciences Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS), an educational policy intended to transform the South African school curriculum in the wake of the apartheid years. CAPS is the latest of a plethora of educational policies that have been introduced in post-apartheid South Africa. However, teachers have lamented the lack of skills and resources necessary for its effective implementation. With this study we investigated how partnership between schools and 1 university in South Africa helped teachers to acquire practical skills and techniques related to CAPS implementation. A qualitative research approach with purposeful sampling was used. Data were collected through focus-group interviews, document analysis and observations that entailed observing teachers performing the experiments prior to the training. Teachers from 22 secondary schools participated in this research. Collected data were analysed using Creswell’s method of coding. Findings of this study indicate that partnership with the University helped equip teachers with the necessary skills and knowledge to perform science experiments, ultimately resulting in improved learner performance. Partnerships between schools and institutions of higher learning to enhance policy implementation are, therefore, recommended.
Competencias digitales para el siglo XXI
Authors: Trujillo-Flórez Luis Martín
Published: June 2023

Las diferentes virtualizaciones que están experimentando los seres humanos ha provocado un cambio cultural, social y educativo transversal a todos los individuos debido a sus interacciones e interrelaciones mediadas con tecnologías que se convirtieronen parte de su cotidianeidad. Lo anterior implica procesos de interculturalidad y transculturalidad digital, construcción de nuevos hábitos, nuevos roles sociales y profesionales, donde se hace necesario una serie de compromisos y acuerdos tanto explícitos como implícitos necesarios para la convivencia, el trabajo colaborativo y la construcción de una mejor sociedad. Las mediaciones tecnológicas están generando que las personas se conviertan, sin proponérselo, en esos ciudadanos, por lo tanto, se hacefundamental para el desarrollo de competencias digitales educar en dicha ciudadanía.

La problemática es que siendo algo necesario para cualquier individuo, hay un alto desconocimiento de lo que significa y lo que acarrea ser un ciudadano digital, y se hace necesario un ajuste en las prácticas de enseñanza para incluir este tema, sobre todo,cuando la hiperconexión de las personas las lleva a ambientes inmersivos, inteligencia artificial y automatización, que va a afectar de manera significativa a toda la humanidad.Este documento analiza el panorama en nuestro contexto y propone diversos caminos para la formación de una ciudadanía digital capaz de comprender mejor la relación del hombre con la tecnología, plantear posturas críticas y éticas que conlleven a la transformación en su uso que permitan un proceso de humanización tecnológica necesario para la supervivencia de la humanidad.
RAYMOND WILLIAMS E A CULTURA COMO PROBLEMA ORDINÁRIO
Authors: Czajka Rodrigo , Faria Júnior Walmir Braga de , Neves Dédallo , Ramos Eduardo Russo
Published: June 2023

Resumo Este artigo pretende demonstrar que Williams evoca a necessidade de reconsideração da análise e da crítica cultural marxista, para que a análise da cultura possa, em certa medida, contribuir para essa renovação pela qual a teoria marxista passava no pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial. Sua definição de base e superestrutura distancia-se de qualquer tipo de entendimento que não implique processualidade ou que seja assentado em qualquer formulação abstrata. Portanto, o conceito de materialismo cultural adquire importância central no interior do sistema analítico de Williams, pois coloca em perspectiva a uniformidade constitutiva da economia capitalista. Por mais abstratos que possam parecer os produtos culturais, eles constituem a dinâmica de produção e de circulação das obras e ideias, favorecidas pelas instituições e por determinada estrutura que visa sua reprodução simbólica e material.
“BRAZIL LOOKS AT BRAZIL”? “FRENCH-STYLE LIVING” AMONG CONTEMPORARY ARBITERS OF TASTE (2000-2015),
Authors: Pulici Carolina
Published: June 2023

Abstract Although it is commonly argued today that Brazil’s eclectic gardens and dwellings were never just a copy of European models, since they involved a singular appropriation not found in Europe, it can also be shown that, conversely, the ways of living celebrated in contemporary Brazil are still informed by foreign reference. Based on a quantitative and qualitative analysis of architecture and interior design reviews, the observation of interior design fairs, and interviews with French and Brazilian professionals from the area of domestic architecture, this article postulates that the contemporary ode to ‘Brazilianness’ obscures the persistence of criteria of excellence imported from countries that have historically imposed their symbolic domination and, in this specific case, the continuing influence of ‘French good taste’ (real or imagined) in representations of the ‘beautiful home’ in today’s Brazil.

Published: June 2023

Resumen La educación para personas con Diabetes Mellitus (DM) representa un desafío en el campo de la salud pública. Presentamos una propuesta teórica que orienta el análisis pedagógico de la educación para la salud en personas con DM, a partir de un proceso de investigación documental. Los hallazgos evidenciaron la existencia de diferentes perspectivas teóricas en tensión sobre la educación en personas con DM que luchan por la legitimación, que pueden agruparse en dos tendencias, una tradicional y la otra crítica. Se presenta una propuesta guiada desde la teoría pedagógica y la salud pública para explicar los hallazgos. La teoría construida pretende evidenciar la configuración de corrientes educativas como resultado de los debates y las luchas teóricas, políticas y epistemológicas que se dan en la intersección de los campos de la salud pública y la pedagogía.
Cause and Effect: A Study on the Concept of Karma in the Buddhist Tradition
Authors: Phuntsho Dorji
Published: June 2023

The most fundamental aspect of the Buddhist tradition is the concept of Karma. Karma is the basis of Buddhist ethics and principles that maintain that the entire universe is bound to a similar law. Our actions will decide what will happen to us, for we caused it. The current state of our existence is with our past Karma, and the present action will determine our future condition of existence. Karma is a special instance of cause and effect, according to which all our actions of body, speech, and mind are causes and all our experiences are their effects. The Law of Karma explains why each individual has a unique mental disposition, a unique physical appearance, and unique experiences. These are the various effects of the countless actions that each individual has performed in the past. We cannot find any two people who have created the same history of actions throughout their past lives. So we cannot find two people with identical states of mind, identical experiences, and identical physical appearances. Therefore, each person has different individual Karma, and each individual has to face the action of one's own Karma. Thus, the significance of this study is to determine the true concept of karma and its implication beyond our life in the Buddhist tradition.

De nombreuses formations civiles et militaires sont proposées pour les soignants militaires amenés à intervenir dans le domaine Montagne Grand Froid. Ces formations à ce milieu exigeant permettent l’acquisition d’un socle minimum de compétences montagne et ensuite l’exercice du soin en conditions difficiles. Le milieu montagne est également utilisé comme outil d’aguerrissement, en offrant des conditions d’entraînement en milieu hostile.

La 27e Brigade d’Infanterie de Montagne (BIM), par sa « spécificité montagne » fait évoluer ses soldats dans un milieu escarpé et hostile. Cette étude a pour but d’évaluer l’accidentologie d’une saison à l’École militaire de haute montagne et d’en analyser ses origines, grâce a un outil numérique innovant permettant l’obtention de données exhaustives et immédiates. Nous avons réalisé une étude observationnelle prospective, basée sur une télédéclaration par les instructeurs encadrant les stages et l’antenne médicale via une application smartphone, qui a eu lieu du 7 janvier 2019 au 15 avril 2019 à l’École militaire de haute montagne de Chamonix. Durant cette période, 22 accidents en montagne ont été recensés. Une majorité des lésions atteignaient les membres inférieurs (54,5 %). Les fractures (32 %) correspondaient au diagnostic le plus fréquent devant les atteintes ligamentaires (27 %). Le ski de randonnée était dans 50 % des cas responsable de ces accidents. La totalité de ces blessures a occasionné un cumul de 593 jours d’arrêt de travail. Cette étude a donc montré le caractère accidentogène de la montagne et l’exposition importante des chasseurs alpins dans leur exercice. Elle permet également de mettre en avant l’utilisation de la digitalisation dans le suivi de l’accidentologie. L’outil utilisé permet d’obtenir des données exhaustives et immédiates, indispensables pour le conseil au commandement, l’amélioration des pratiques et de l’équipement des unités de la BIM, ainsi que pour la réalisation des travaux scientifiques des équipes médicales soutenant les unités alpines.
Etat des lieux de la pratique de la médecine manuelle et ostéopathie par les médecins du service de santé des armées en 2018

Les troubles musculo-squelettiques et les blessures liées à la pratique des activités physiques et spor-tives représentent la principale activité clinique des médecins du Service de santé des armées (SSA) français. La médecine manuelle et ostéopathique permet de répondre de manière adaptée à ces solli-citations et le SSA forme de plus en plus de praticiens à cette pratique. Cette étude vise à décrire les modalités de pratique de l’ostéopathie par les médecins diplômés du SSA, de les recenser et d’évaluer leurs avis sur les intérêts et les freins à cette pratique au sein des armées.
Après un recensement auprès des centres médicaux des armées, un questionnaire a été adressé aux praticiens relatifs à leur lieu d’exercice, leur pratique en ostéopathie, leur avis sur la formation et les conditions d’exercice.
Cinquante-huit praticiens formés ont été recensés dont les trois-quarts sont médecins généralistes. Le taux de réponse à l’enquête est de 86,2 %. L’âge moyen des praticiens diplômés est de 40,4 ans avec un sex ratio de 1/1. Les deux tiers sont également titulaires d’un diplôme de médecine du sport. On constate que les techniques fonctionnelles et myotensives sont les plus pratiquées, devant les techniques structurelles, l’ostéopathie viscérale et crânienne restant marginales. La motivation principale pour se former est d’élargir l’offre de soins aux militaires (80 %).
On note une évolution favorable en termes d’accès à la formation en médecine manuelle. La pra-tique est de plus en plus diffusée dans l’ensemble des Forces (armée de l’Air et de l’Espace et armée de Terre, notamment). Le nombre de praticiens a ainsi presque doublé ces quatre dernières années en conformité avec le projet « SSA 2020 ». Cependant, les freins à la pratique ont peu évolué : dispo-nibilité des praticiens formés, pas ou peu de créneaux dédiés à la pratique en cabinet médical mili-taire, conditions d’exercice altéreés. Unifier les praticiens formés en vue d’homogénéiser et d’objectiver l’intérêt de cette pratique au bénéfice des armées octroierait une meilleure organisation et reconnaissance au sein du SSA.
Why Canadians deserve to have mandated health and standard drink information labels on alcohol containers

To reduce deaths, morbidity, and social problems from alcohol in Canada, a multi-dimensional robust response is needed, including a comprehensive alcohol control strategy at the provincial, territorial, and federal levels. Alcohol container labels with health and standard drink information are an essential component of this strategy. This commentary provides a rationale for the mandatory labelling of all alcohol products, summarizes Canadian initiatives to date to legislate alcohol container warning labels, and addresses myths and misconceptions about labels. Canadians deserve direct, accessible information about (1) the inherent health risks associated with alcohol consumption, (2) the number of standard drinks per container and volume of a standard drink, and (3) guidance for preventing or reducing consumption-related health risks. Enhanced health labels on alcohol containers are long overdue.
Toward a typology of counterproductive employees: A person-centered investigation of counterproductive work behavior.
Authors: Travis Justin , Craig S. Bartholomew
Published: June 2023

The study of counterproductive work behavior (CWB), intentional actions by employees that are deleterious to the organization and/or its stakeholders, has produced research on the dimensionality of CWB, as well as its situational and dispositional antecedents. Absent from these advancements have been investigations into the potential utility of a taxonomy of counterproductive employee types—a “person-oriented” approach. Our latent profile analysis (N = 522) suggested a four-profile solution which included one profile with uniformly low rates across CWBs (here termed “Angels;” 14% of the sample), and three profiles with higher CWB rates but which were distinguishable by different CWBs being most frequent in each group. Specifically, one profile was distinguished from the Angels group by higher rates of less severe CWBs (misuse of time/resources and poor attendance; 33% of the sample). The other two of the three counterproductive profiles were similar to each other except that one was characterized by higher drug use than the other (14% of the sample). The profiles also differed significantly on narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism, and on self-reports of prior arrest and censure by employers. Provided these distinctions among profiles, the treatment and assumptions of employee counterproductivity in research and practice should be revisited, particularly when using models assuming a homogenous, monotonic relationship between counterproductive behaviors across employees. Implications for our conceptual understanding of counterproductivity and applied interventions aimed at reducing CWBs are discussed, alongside recommendations for future person-oriented research on CWB.
