Analysis of Civil Partnership of Notary Based on the Law of Notary Position
Authors: Tahir Fonni
Published: July 2018

Analysis of Civil Partnership of Notary Based on the Law of Notary Position. The Law of Notary Position provides an opportunity for notaries to establish a Civil Partnership of notaries in the performance of their position. This is contrary to the notary profession, since the purpose of the formation of Civil Partnership is to seek the benefit to be distributed to allies as stipulated in the Civil Code. This study aimed to find out and comprehend (1) the formation of a civil partnership of notary in the implementation of the notary’s position: (2) the application of the principles of civil partnership stipulation in the Civil Code to civil partnership of notary. This research is a normative research that is a process to find out laws, legal principles, and legal doctrine to answer the legal problem. This study employed a statutory, comparison, and conceptual approaches. The results of this study indicate that: (1) the formation of civil partnership is not in line with the implementation of the notary position because the main purpose of the formation of civil partnership is to seek profit, while the obligation of the notary profession is to give priority to the society and the state. (2) the principles of civil partnership stipulation in the Civil Code differ from the principles of stipulation in the formation of notary civil partnerships, in the case of profit sharing. The form of civil partnership (Code Civil) applies profit sharing whereas in civil partnership of notary there is no profit sharing, but each notary receives honorarium in return for his services without any honorarium sharing. Therefore, a revision of the use of a civil partnership of notary term used in the Law of Notary Position is required.Keywords: civil partnership, notary, joint office, maatschap

Published: July 2018

Following the guidance set by the Directive on the energy performance of buildings (recast) (EPBD2), current regulations in Serbia which refer to the issue of energy efficiency and energy certification of buildings provides an opportunity of certification of selected unit of a building, such as a dwelling. This measure was set in order to make it possible for owners or tenants of the building or the building unit to assess and compare its energy performance. From the user?s perspective this measure is very important since, apart from reviewing the quality or the deficiencies of space in which they live, it would be an important parameter of economic evaluation of the apartment in the future. As energy performance of the apartment is not a priori identical to that of the whole building, the paper will analyze and compare these values for different positions in a horizontal and vertical plan of the same apartment within the building. Comparison of the results obtained for individual dwellings and for a building as a whole, will provide insight into the extent to which the disposition and the orientation of the apartment affect its energy performance.

Authors: Kurniawan Irwan Nuryana
Published: July 2018

The increasing number of students coming to the university’s guidance and counselling unit demonstrates the need for more serious and systemic efforts to deal with students’ mental health. Previous studies have shown that religion has significant contribution to the human mental health and psychological well-being. This study specifically examined the role of one of the spiritual resources that get emphasis in Islamic teachings that is “Tawakal toward Allah SubhanahuwaTa’ala” to the undergraduate students’ mental health. To test the research hypothesis that asserted there is a positive relationship between surrender to God and social-emotional health, current study uses correlational design. The study involved 57 undergraduate students of the statistic class at Psychology Department of Islamic University of Indonesia, Yogyakarta and Surrender to God Scale (Wong-McDonald & Gorsuch, 2000) and Social-Emotional Health Survey (Furlong, You, Shishim, & Dowdy, 2017) were administered to them. When social desirability on the relationship between surrender to God and social-emotional health was controlled, partial correlation r (56) = .510, p = .001was found.The result suggests that there was a significant and strongly positive association between surrender to God and students’ social-emotional health when controlling social desirability scores

KETIMPANGAN PENDAPATAN DAN POTENSI SEKTORAL DI KALIMANTAN TIMUR TAHUN 2002-2004
Authors: Kusumaningrum Mayahayati
Published: July 2018

One of common characteristics of the less-developed countries is widespread of economic inequality among their regions. The problem of regional disparity occurs due to differentiation of both quality and quantity of human and natural resources. Indonesia is a classic example of a country with deep economic gap among its provinces. Ironically, East Kalimantan as one of the richest provinces in Indonesia has experienced the similar case. The development of Cities is approximately faster than that of Districts. Such situation is contributed by some factors such as concentration of economic activities, uneven distribution of investment, mobility rate of production, deprived domestic and international trade, etc. The implementation of policy on regional autonomy is intended to minimize such development upheaval. To some extent, however, autonomy laws have been sharpening the disparity among regions, particularly between oil-and-gas-based-regions and non-oiland- gas-based-regions. It means that natural resource (i.e. oil and gas) industry plays crucial role in escalating local development, especially where third sector (services, technology-based, communication, etc) is poorly developed. In the long-term perspective, the dependency on natural resource which is nonrenewable should be shifted to other sector having the potency to be continuously renewed. By using affiliation from Location Quotient (LQ) analysis, this paper tries to excavate the potency and inequality of economic development in East Kalimantan Province. The analysis aims to identify the priority of sound development sector in certain area and finding out the area owning advantage of location from any sector, in order to improve efficiency of economic activities.Keywords: ketimpangan ekonomi/pendapatan, sektor potensial, Kalimantan Timur.
KEPEMIMPINAN TRANSFORMASIONAL DALAM KONTEKS PERUBAHAN ORGANISASI DI LEMBAGA ADMINISTRASI NEGARA (TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP IN THE CONTEXT OF ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE IN THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION (NIPA/LAN))
Authors: Darto Mariman
Published: July 2018

This paper aims to describe the importance of transformational leadership role in encouraging and influencing organizational change in the National Institute of Public Administration (LAN). By using data collection method through the stock-taking of various textbooks, journals and documents, as well as the observation in the past year, this paper is expected to provide an overview of how the role of transformational leadership is able to push the organizational changes. The succession of transformational leadership can be seen at least from three important indicators, namely, changing in the organizational structure, products and culture. Analysis demonstrate that change in structure and product are relatively better compared to cultural change. Therefore, LAN's still need to work hard to transform the old habits into the new habits that reflects the expectation of internal and external stakeholders, which is professionalism in performing their duties and functions in research and training and education. Thus, the key to make all of this possible is the transformational leadership which is always ready to lead the change.Keywords: Transformational Leadership, Organizational ChangeTulisan ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan pentingnya peran kepemimpinan transformasional dalam mendorong dan mempengaruhi perubahan organisasi di Lembaga Administrasi Negara. Dengan menggunakan metode pengumpulan data melalui stock-taking dari berbagai textbook, jurnal dan dokumen yang ada, serta dengan melakukan observasi dalam kurun waktu setahun terakhir, tulisan ini diharapkan dapat memberikan gambaran mengenai bagaimana peran kepemimpinan transformasional mampu mendorong terjadinya perubahan organisasi. Keberhasilan ini setidaknya dapat dilihat dari tiga indikator penting yaitu perubahan struktur, produk dan kultur. Dua indikator perubahan yang pertama, yaitu struktur dan produk, relatif lebih baik jika dibandingkan dengan perubahan kultur, dimana LAN masih harus bekerja keras untuk merubah kebiasaan lama (breaking habit) yang selama ini dilakukan menjadi kebiasaan baru yang mencerminkan harapan stakeholder baik internal maupun eksternal yaitu: profesionalisme dalam menjalankan tugas dan fungsi di bidang kajian dan kediklatan. Kunci dari semuanya itu adalah kepemimpinan transformasional yang selalu siap dalam memimpin perubahan.Kata Kunci: Kepemimpinan Transformasional, Perubahan Organisasi

From daily land-use practice to global phenomenon. On the origin and recent evolution of prosecco’s wine landscape (Italy)
Authors: Basso Matteo
Published: July 2018

In recent years Prosecco, the renowned Italian sparkling wine, has become an increasingly popular product globally, leading to a massive expansion of viticulture within Prosecco’s production zones (north-eastern Italy).

Through qualitative and quantitative methods, this paper provides the first empirical analysis of the landscape and land-use modifications generated by the planting of new vineyards. Specifically, it seeks to reconstruct both the long-term historical factors that brought about the emergence of the specific winescape (today a candidate for becoming a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and the recent conversion of croplands, grassland, and woodland to wine-growing areas. The landscape, particularly on the plains, is radically changing due to the new, large geometric plantations that are perfectly suited to mechanical viticulture.

This paper’s conclusions argue for overall regulation of such a booming monoculture in order to effectively harmonize the production needs of wine-growers with the needs of other land-uses (mostly residential), and to protect the historical landscape patterns and ecological biodiversity.

Psychological Readiness to Return to Sport Is Associated With Knee Kinematic Asymmetry During Gait Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Authors: Zarzycki Ryan , Failla Mathew , Capin Jacob J. , Snyder-Mackler Lynn
Published: July 2018

Background

Gait asymmetry is frequently observed following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Psychological readiness to return to sport is associated with functional and activity-related outcomes after ACLR. However, the association between gait asymmetry and psychological readiness to return to sport is unknown.

Objectives

To determine the relationship between kinematic and kinetic measures of knee symmetry during gait and psychological readiness to return to sport following ACLR.

Methods

In this controlled laboratory, cross-sectional study, 79 athletes (39 women) underwent gait analysis following impairment resolution after ACLR (ie, full range of motion, minimal or no effusion, quadriceps strength index of 80% or greater). Interlimb differences during gait were calculated for sagittal plane knee angles at initial contact, peak knee flexion, and peak knee extension, as well as for peak knee flexion moment and peak knee adduction moment. Athletes completed the Anterior Cruciate Ligament-Return to Sport after Injury scale (ACL-RSI) to assess psychological readiness to return to sport. Pearson correlations were used to examine the association between ACL-RSI score and each gait symmetry variable.

Results

Significant negative correlations were observed between the ACL-RSI and 2 kinematic variables: knee flexion angle at initial contact (r = −0.281, P = .012) and peak knee flexion (r = −0.248, P = .027). In general, lower scores on the ACL-RSI were associated with greater interlimb asymmetry.

Conclusion

There was a weak association between psychological readiness to return to sport and knee kinematic asymmetry during gait. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2018;48(12):968–973. Epub 27 Jul 2018. doi:10.2519/jospt.2018.8084
Rehabilitation of an Adolescent Equestrian Athlete With a History of Multiple Concussions: A Case Report Describing an Adapted Return-to-Sport Protocol
Authors: Gunter Kelli B. , Shields Christopher J. , Ott Summer D. , Coronado Rogelio A.
Published: July 2018

Background

Equestrian riding is a sport with a high risk of concussion. Currently, the literature guiding rehabilitation for concussions in equestrian athletes is limited, especially for directing return to sport.

Case Description

In this case report, a 14-year-old female equestrian athlete presented to physical therapy following her third concussion in 3 years. Her primary complaints were headaches, dizziness, difficulty concentrating, light sensitivity, and neck pain. On examination, the patient demonstrated reproduction of symptoms during testing of the vestibular-ocular reflex, showed a 3-line symptomatic loss on the dynamic visual acuity test, and had impairments in the joint position error test (1/5 correct on the left, 4/5 correct on the right) and a Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) score of 38/60 errors. A return-to-riding protocol was adapted from general return-to-sport guidelines and tailored to meet the unique demands of the patient's equestrian sport. The protocol included phased progression through no activity, light aerobic activity, moderate aerobic activity, sport-specific nonjumping skills, sport-specific jumping skills, full practice, and return to competition. During the protocol, the patient participated in 8 physical therapy sessions over 4 weeks for vestibular training, aerobic conditioning, and cervical and core exercises, as well as equestrian exercises at her stables.

Outcomes

At the final evaluation, the patient reported no symptoms at rest, with exercise, or when testing vestibular-ocular reflex. Improvements were noted in the dynamic visual acuity test, joint position error, and BESS, with changes in the BESS exceeding minimal detectable change. The patient completed the full return-to-riding protocol in 8 weeks and was able to return to equestrian competition without complaints.

Discussion

This case report describes the physical therapy management of an adapted return-to-sport protocol for an equestrian athlete with a history of multiple sport-related concussions.

Changes in Measures of Cervical Spine Function, Vestibulo-ocular Reflex, Dynamic Balance, and Divided Attention Following Sport-Related Concussion in Elite Youth Ice Hockey Players
Authors: Schneider Kathryn J. , Meeuwisse Willem H. , Palacios-Derflingher Luz , Emery Carolyn A.
Published: July 2018

Background

Concussion is a commonly occurring injury. The extent to which the cervical spine, vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR), dynamic balance, and divided attention are affected following concussion is not well understood.

Objectives

To evaluate acute changes in measures of (1) cervical spine function, (2) VOR function, (3) dynamic balance, and (4) tasks of divided attention in elite youth ice hockey players following a sport-related concussion.

Methods

In this prospective cohort study, elite 13- to 17-year-old ice hockey players completed cervical spine measures (cervical flexor endurance test, head perturbation test, anterolateral strength, cervical flexion rotation test, joint position error), VOR function tests (head thrust test, dynamic visual acuity [clinical and computerized]), dynamic balance tests (Functional Gait Assessment), and divided-attention tasks (walking-while-talking test) both in the preseason and following concussion.

Results

At least 1 test was completed by 69 of 97 (71%) players (a maximum of 55 for any 1 test) at both preseason and immediately following concussion (median, 4 days post concussion). After Bonferroni corrections (α = .00625), using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, cervical spine measures were significantly worse following concussion compared to baseline (cervical flexor endurance test: z = −5.20, P<.001; anterolateral neck strength: zleft = −5.36, P<.001 and zright = −5.45, P<.001; and head perturbation test: z = −4.36, P<.001). Time taken to complete a complex task of divided attention relative to normal walking speed was faster (improved) compared to the preseason (z = −2.59, P<.01). There was no change in VOR or dynamic balance following concussion.

Conclusion

Measures of cervical spine function and divided attention were altered following concussion. However, tests of VOR and dynamic balance were not significantly different from baseline. Future research to evaluate the mechanism underlying these changes is warranted. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2018;48(12):974–981. Epub 27 Jul 2018. doi:10.2519/jospt.2018.8258
Self-reported Home Exercise Adherence: A Validity and Reliability Study Using Concealed Accelerometers
Authors: Nicolson Philippa J.A. , Hinman Rana S. , Wrigley Tim V. , Stratford Paul W. , Bennell Kim L.
Published: July 2018

Background

Accurate measurement of adherence to prescribed exercise programs is essential. Diaries and self-report rating scales are commonly used, yet little evidence exists to demonstrate their validity and reliability.

Objectives

To examine the concurrent validity of adherence to home strengthening exercises measured by (1) exercise diaries and (2) a self-report rating scale, compared to adherence measured using an accelerometer concealed in an ankle cuff weight. Test-retest reliability of the self-report rating scale was also assessed.

Methods

In this clinical measurement study, 54 adults aged 45 years or older with self-reported chronic knee pain were prescribed a home quadriceps-strengthening program. Over 12 weeks, participants completed paper exercise diaries and, at appointments every 2 weeks, rated their adherence on an 11-point numeric rating scale. A triaxial accelerometer was concealed in the ankle cuff weight used for exercises. Self-reported adherence rating scale data over each 2-week period were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and a Bland-Altman plot to assess agreement, Spearman correlations for validity, and intraclass correlation coefficients for test-retest reliability.

Results

Exercise adherence was significantly overestimated in diaries during the 12 weeks (diary median, 220 exercises; accelerometer, 176; P<.001) and was moderately correlated with accelerometer data (r = 0.52; 95% confidence interval: 0.26, 0.69). A Bland-Altman plot indicated large between-participant variability in agreement between these measures. Self-reported adherence showed poor to fair correlations with accelerometer data (mean r = 0.23–0.39), and less than acceptable reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.79; lower 1-sided 95% confidence limit, 0.68).

Conclusion

Exercise diaries showed questionable validity and variable levels of agreement compared with accelerometer-measured exercise completion. A self-reported adherence rating scale had limited validity and less than acceptable test-retest reliability. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2018;48(12):943–950.

Clinical Predictors of Dynamic Lower Extremity Stiffness During Running
Authors: Goodwin Jonathan S. , Blackburn J. Troy , Schwartz Todd A. , Williams D.S. Blaise
Published: July 2018

Background

Lower extremity stiffness describes the relative loading and kinematics of the entire lower extremity during ground contact. Previously injured subjects demonstrate altered lower extremity stiffness values. Clinical analysis of lower extremity stiffness is not currently feasible due to increased time and cost.

Objective

To determine the clinically identifiable contributors to lower extremity stiffness.

Methods

In this cross-sectional controlled laboratory study, 92 healthy runners completed a clinical screening involving passive assessment of hip, knee, and ankle range of motion, along with body anthropometrics. The range of motion was predominantly assessed in the sagittal and frontal planes. In the same session, runners completed an overground kinematic and kinetic running assessment at 3.35 m/s (±5%) to obtain lower extremity stiffness. Correlations between lower extremity stiffness and clinical variables were completed. Modifiable variables were included in an all-possible-linear regressions approach to determine a parsimonious model for predicting lower extremity stiffness.

Results

Clinically modifiable measures included in the regression model accounted for 48.4% of the variance of lower extremity stiffness during running. The variables that predicted greater stiffness included greater body mass, less ankle dorsiflexion range of motion with the knee flexed, less hip internal rotation range of motion, and less first-ray mobility.

Conclusion

Reduced lower extremity range of motion and greater body mass are associated with greater lower extremity stiffness during running. These variables could be addressed clinically to potentially alter lower extremity stiffness and injury risk. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2019;49(2):98–104.

Psychometric Properties of the Dance Functional Outcome Survey (DFOS): Reliability, Validity, and Responsiveness
Authors: Bronner Shaw , Chodock Evie , Urbano Igor Edwardo Reis , Smith Teresa
Published: July 2018

Background

There are no outcomes measures that focus on the unique functional requirements of dancers.

Objectives

To evaluate test-retest reliability, internal consistency, construct validity, sensitivity, and responsiveness of the Dance Functional Outcome Survey (DFOS) in professional and preprofessional adult dancers.

Methods

This prospective cohort study examined test-retest reliability of the DFOS in 198 healthy and injured dancers over 2 weeks, using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC2,1). In a sample of 725 healthy and injured dancers, the following were examined: (1) construct validity, by comparing the DFOS to the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) using Pearson correlations; (2) exploratory factor analysis and internal consistency; and (3) sensitivity, by generating receiver operating characteristic curves and determining area under the curve (AUC). In a subgroup of 47 injured dancers, we determined internal responsiveness across 4 time points using repeated-measures analysis of variance (P<.05). Injured dancers' scores were analyzed for floor and ceiling effects.

Results

The DFOS demonstrated high test-retest reliability (ICC≥0.93). Single-factor loading in exploratory factor analysis supported unidimensionality of the scale, with high internal consistency (α = .96). The DFOS total score and activities-of-daily-living (ADL) and dance technique subscores had strong construct validity compared with scores on the SF-36 physical component summary (r≥0.77). This study found excellent sensitivity, with high AUC values (AUC≥0.91). There were significant differences across time for DFOS scores (P<.001), demonstrating responsiveness to change. There were no floor or ceiling effects.

Conclusion

The DFOS demonstrates acceptable psychometric performance as an outcome and screening measure for dancers. The DFOS is a useful tool to monitor both healthy state and functional limitation following lower extremity or low back injury in adult ballet and modern dancers.

The objective of this research was to describe the effectiveness of storyboard in learning storytelling skill of second year students of class VII A at MTs Muhammadiyah Limbung. This research used descriptive quantitative method with the research design was pre-experimental design. The achievement of students result in learning storytelling had the average (84, 19) of 37 students and all of the student were completed the Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal (KKM) with the higher score was (90) and the lower score was (75). Since the achievement, (99, 99%) students achieved Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal (KKM). By using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the result of the average score analysis for pre-test shown that Pvalue> α was (0, 56) > 0, 05 and the average score for post-test shown that Pvalue> α was (0, 09) > 0, 05. The data shown that the result of pre-test and post-test included in normal category. Based on the result of SPSS analysis, shown that P (sig. (2-tailed) was 0,000 < 0, 05. It shown that the average of students’ result in learning after taught by using storyboard technique was more than 74, 9. It implied that H0 was rejected and H1 was accepted which implied that the average of students’ result (post-test) of second year students of class VII A MTs Muhammadiyah Limbung. Based on the result of the research above, could be concluded that learning storytelling skill by using storyboard technique was more effective than the conventional method of learning. By using the technique, students’ intellect and grasp skill were more stimulated in telling an event or their experience by using visual aid as the aid in conveying the event or experience.

Computing mu-values for Representations of Symmetric Groups in Engineering Systems
Authors: Rehman Mutti-Ur , Anwar M. Fazeel
Published: July 2018

In this article we consider the matrix representations of finite symmetric groups Sn over the filed of complex numbers. These groups and their representations also appear as symmetries of certain linear control systems [5]. We compute the structure singular values (SSV) of the matrices arising from these representations. The obtained results of SSV are compared with well-known MATLAB routine mussv.
The Strong Semilattice of Pi-groups
Authors: Zhang Jiangang , Yang Yuhui , Shen Ran
Published: July 2018

A semigroup is called a GV-inverse semigroup if and only if it is isomorphic to a semilattice of $\pi$-groups. In this paper, we give the sufficient and necessary conditions for a GV-inverse semigroup to be a strong semilattice of $\pi$-groups. Some conclusions about Clifford semigroups are generalized.
Generalization of Schur's Lemma in Ring Representations on Modules over a Commutative Ring
Authors: Hijriati Na'imah , Wahyuni Sri , Wijayanti Indah Emilia
Published: July 2018

Let $ R, S $ be rings with unity, $ M $ a module over $ S $, where $ S $ a commutative ring, and $ f \colon R \rightarrow S $ a ring homomorphism. A ring representation of $ R $ on $ M $ via $ f $ is a ring homomorphism $ \mu \colon R \rightarrow End_S(M) $, where $ End_S(M) $ is a ring of all $ S $-module homomorphisms on $ M $. One of the important properties in representation of rings is the Schur's Lemma.Â  The main result of this paper is partly the generalization of Schur's Lemma in representations of rings on modules over a commutative ring
Вплив координаційних вправ на учнів молодшого шкільного віку із затримкою психічного розвитку
Authors: Tuchak Oleg
Published: July 2018

Актуальність. Дослідниками встановлено, що діти із затримкою психічного розвитку становлять одну п’яту частину від загальної кількості дітей, які йдуть до першого класу. Це свідчить про актуальність проблеми й необхідність пошуку ефективних шляхів для її розв’язання. Мета роботи – обґрунтувати ефективність впливу координаційних вправ на координаційні здібності, психічні процеси та властивості учнів молодшого шкільного віку із затримкою психічного розвитку. Методи дослідження. Використано теоретичні, емпіричні, статистичні методи дослідження. Дослідження відбувалося впродовж 2012–2016 рр. і реалізовувалось у чотири етапи: аналітико-констатувальний; пошуковий; формувальний та узагальнювальний. Дослідницько-експериментальну роботу здійснювали на базі Луцького навчально-реабілітаційного центру. Результати роботи. Розроблено методику навчання координаційних вправ учнів молодшого шкільного віку із затримкою психічного розвитку. Методика складається з двох блоків – психічного та фізичного. Психічний блок містить такі процеси та властивості: зорова й слухова пам’ять, образно-логічне та наочно-дійове мислення. До фізичного блоку увійшли такі координаційні якості: здатність до оцінки та регулювання динамічних і часових параметрів руху, орієнтування в просторі; рівновага статична й динамічна. Засоби, які використовувалися під час реалізації методики поділялися на загальні та спеціальні. Особливістю спеціальних засобів були умови їх виконання, які підібрані таким чином, щоб як найефективніше сприяти розвитку координаційних здібностей, психічних процесів і властивостей. Висновки. Підтверджено ефективність експериментальної методики. Виявлено статистично значимі зміни за мимовільним оперативним зоровим та слуховим запам’ятовуванням, образно-логічним і наочно-дійовим мисленням. Покращено здатність до оцінки й регуляції просторово-часових та динамічних параметрів рухів, стійкість рівноваги статичної та динамічної.
Consumos Rituales: usos y alcances de las mercancías religiosas en el santuario de San Expedito
Authors: Algranti Joaquín
Published: July 2018

El objetivo del presente artículo consiste en explorar los consumos rituales que despliegan los peregrinos en torno a la imagen de San Expedito en la parroquia Nuestra Señora de Balvanera, Buenos Aires, Argentina. El artículo se encuentra dividido en tres partes. En la primera nos proponemos reconstruir brevemente la figura del homo oeconomicus  y la influencia en los estudios sobre consumo religioso. En el segundo apartado vamos a explorar los usos rituales de los objetos de santería. Por último, será analizado el modo en que las mercancías religiosas expresan espiritualidades en pugna entre los especialistas y peregrinos. La investigación cuenta con un corpus  de entrevistas a profundidad, observaciones participantes en la parroquia y, en menor medida, el análisis de documentos.
La parte invisibilizada de la migración transnacional boliviana hacia Argentina
Authors: Goldberg Alejandro
Published: July 2018

Este artículo es producto de distintas investigaciones etnográficas realizadas desde 2007 en adelante. Parte de una definición relacional, sociopolítica y cultural del concepto de violencia  para abordar un caso específico de estudio, dentro de los procesos migratorios regionales contemporáneos hacia Argentina: el de los trabajadores inmigrantes bolivianos de ambos sexos, víctimas de redes transnacionales de tráfico de personas, que fueron reclutados en origen y reducidos a la servidumbre en condiciones próximas a la esclavitud, en talleres textiles clandestinos de la ciudad de Buenos Aires y su área metropolitana. En este contexto de vulnerabilidad social, aumentan las situaciones de riesgo para la salud de estas personas, que van desde el sufrimiento de padecimientos graves y accidentes hasta la muerte.

La muerte en la Odisea de Homero
Authors: Tapia Zúñiga Pedro C.
Published: July 2018

El objetivo de este artículo es presentar un bosquejo de lo que Homero dice de la muerte en la Odisea , mediante una colación de los conceptos más significativos (thánatos, thanein, moira, kér, phónos). Se distingue entre el morir, la muerte y el modo de morir como realidades racionalmente distintas, aunque íntimamente ligadas entre sí. En tal forma, se explora qué pensaba Homero y qué se pensaba en su tiempo sobre la muerte y el más allá. Al final, se presentan algunas referencias que hacen los principales personajes de la Odisea  respecto al morir y a la muerte para sugerir que quizá la muerte no es el gran mal, sino sólo uno de los mayores y, de éstos, el menos temible.
Responsabilidad ante la mercantilización de la muerte (cómo la bioética puede salvar la vida de la muerte)
Authors: Fonti Diego , Stauber Juan Carlos
Published: July 2018

Este trabajo aborda en clave bioética la experiencia del morir contemporáneo, con una preocupación especial por la consecuente dificultad en los moribundos para apropiarse y vivir de manera significativa ese evento. Principalmente se exponen algunos rasgos estructurales del morir en la actualidad, como son el papel de la tecnología y la institucionalización, la transformación de la muerte en una mercancía y el tipo de ocultamiento y despersonalización que de esto resultan. A partir de aquí, se elaboran algunos criterios para “salvar” la muerte, como la noción solidaria de autonomía, el vínculo con la responsabilidad económica en las discusiones sobre justicia en el acceso a bienes sanitarios y la reflexión crítica a partir de quienes resultan ser víctimas de los procesos tecnológicos y de la mercantilización de la vida y la muerte.
“Muerte 2.0”: pensar e imaginar la muerte en la era digital
Authors: Márquez Israel
Published: July 2018

Este artículo trata sobre el significado de la muerte en la cultura digital actual. En concreto, pretende destacar cómo muchas de las ideas modernas sobre la muerte aún presentes hoy en día (privatización, invisibilización y desocialización de la muerte, o la progresiva simplificación de los ritos mortuorios) se ven cuestionadas con la llegada de la Web 2.0 y su énfasis en la visibilidad, conectividad y sociabilidad entre usuarios. El artículo concluye que estas y otras características de la denominada “Web social” conectan la muerte en la era digital actual con una concepción premoderna o primitiva de la misma.
Muerte y autenticidad. Reflexiones sobre Heidegger, Rilke y Blanchot
Authors: Gosetti-Ferencei Jennifer Anna
Published: July 2018

En este ensayo se considera la relación entre muerte y autenticidad, una preocupación presente en la filosofía desde el discurso de Sócrates sobre su propia sentencia de muerte. La muerte no es competencia de la ontología ni de la fenomenología, pero sí del pensamiento existencialista, en el que ha sido central. En la filosofía de Heidegger, la noción de ser-para-la-muerte define la singularidad de la existencia, y la muerte informa dramáticamente tanto la poética de Rilke como la teoría literaria de Blanchot. Este ensayo muestra cómo la relación entre muerte y autenticidad en dichas obras constituye el horizonte entre lo imaginable y lo inimaginable, y representa también un modo de pensar los límites del pensamiento y el lenguaje.
Intervención social y alteridad: una aproximación filosófica desde Lévinas
Authors: Castro-Serrano Borja , Gutiérrez Olivares Claudia
Published: July 2018

El presente trabajo tiene por objetivo ampliar el concepto de intervención social  en contextos de pobreza más allá de su mirada tradicional. Así, nutriremos este espacio social desde la “filosofía del encuentro” lévinasiana, en tanto paradigma que puede hacerse cargo de una mirada transformadora de las relaciones intersubjetivas. Pensaremos el espacio de la intervención social poniendo el acento en las personas que viven una realidad de pobreza, comprendiendo la propia subjetividad como un mundo de posibilidades y no una intervención que se imponga como saber totalizante, que clausura el devenir subjetivo y lo categoriza como sujeto carenciado.
La crisis del universalismo: redefiniciones, propuestas y debates
Authors: Bedin Paula
Published: July 2018

El objetivo del presente artículo es dar cuenta de las posiciones críticas más relevantes sobre el universal clásico. Para ello explicaremos qué se entiende por crisis del universalismo y por universal abstracto. Mencionaremos las redefiniciones actuales de autores como Badiou, Balibar y Žižek del concepto de universal que intentan superar la dicotomía universal/particular. Expondremos brevemente las perspectivas de Spivak, Butler y Laclau quienes proponen pensar un universal antitotalitario. Por último nos referiremos a la interpretación de Judith Butler sobre los universales en relación a los movimientos sociales. En la conclusión afirmaremos la necesidad de seguir pensando nociones de universalidad al considerar este concepto como indispensable en todo proyecto que contemple la transformación social.
