El presente dosier es resultado del curso “El diálogo interreligioso e intercultural desde una perspectiva decolonial”, que tuvo lugar entre mayo y junio de 2017 en el CEIICH de la UNAM, y donde propuse abordar el “giro decolonial” en relación con el “diálogo intercultural” y, más allá, con el “diálogo interreligioso”. Este último punto sirvió como base para explorar diálogos más profundos, vinculados con el fenómeno religioso, las tradiciones sagradas y las espiritualidades, aspecto en el cual se puso énfasis, pues, a pesar de ser tan importante para la decolonialidad, el tema de “lo Divino” (en sus diferentes expresiones) ha sido poco abordado. Más aún, ha sido opacado dentro las ciencias sociales secularizadas —y no solo en México, sino en la mayoría de las universidades occidentalizadas de todo el mundo. Fue justamente este vacío referente al estudio de “lo Divino” y, más allá, su encarcelamiento dentro de un concepto de “cultura” que a su vez está asociado con el colonizado y  el “otro” de la modernidad, lo que motivó a los autores del dosier a ahondar en aquello que el filósofo Enrique Dussel ha descrito como “las partes negadas y oprimidas por la modernidad”.
Los márgenes de los diálogos interreligiosos. El no ser religión
Authors: González Ortuño Gabriela
Published: September 2018

En este artículo se busca revisar, en primer lugar, algunas de las posturas filosóficas en torno al concepto de religión desde la filosofía política contemporánea occidental. Posteriormente, se abordará la crítica decolonial y sus límites frente a las formas de espiritualidad y ritualidad sincréticas y no coloniales. En general, el presente artículo, busca mostrar cómo se conforman las fronteras entre quienes tienen voz y quienes no la tienen en un diálogo interreligioso a partir de la crítica a la idea misma de religión desde posiciones de pensadores y pensadoras afro, musulmanes e indígenas.
Una aproximación al proyecto de Transmodernidad de Enrique Dussel
Authors: Rodríguez Reyes Abdiel
Published: September 2018

En este artículo me aproximaré al proyecto de “Transmodernidad” de Enrique Dussel. Comenzaré dialogando brevemente con la propuesta de la filósofa española Rosa María Rodríguez Magda, quien trabajó sobre esta misma terminología, aunque con otro contenido. Al proyecto de Dussel lo podríamos sintetizar como la crítica a la Modernidad y el intento de romper con ella mediante “un pluriverso trans-moderno”, el cual supone una “Nueva Edad del Mundo” así como un “otro proceso civilizatorio”. Actualmente, la Modernidad extrae, asimila e instrumentaliza todo lo que le es funcional, y excluye al resto —o lo encubre— con su meta-narrativa colonial eurocéntrica. En este sentido, el proyecto de Transmodernidad es una propuesta ambiciosa, la cual está en pleno proceso de edificación arquitectónica.
El espacio, el tiempo y el racismo en las perspectivas decoloniales: apuntes para descolonizar los estudios sobre migración internacional
Authors: Herrera Rosales Erika
Published: September 2018

Ante la diversidad de conceptualizaciones sobre el fenómeno de la migración internacional, algunos académicos han hecho un llamado para reunir los distintos marcos analíticos e interpretativos. Si atendemos a su invitación, los aportes pueden venir tanto de distintas disciplinas como de tradiciones de pensamiento. En este artículo proponemos al enfoque decolonial como una nueva veta para replantear el debate teórico sobre la migración. Se propone que pensadores como Linda Tuhiwai Smith y Enrique Dussel pueden contribuir al diálogo de la migración desde la perspectiva decolonial enfatizando las categorías de espacio y tiempo. Se tomarán como punto de partida estas dos categorías para vincularlas con otros conceptos, el de sistema-mundo de Wallerstein y la zona del ser y la zona del no ser de Fanon, que adopta Ramón Grosfoguel como parte de un marco epistemológico decolonial. Esto nos permitirá entender cómo los elementos de la geopolítica decolonial pueden aportar a la discusión teórica sobre la migración y, a su vez, dicho fenómeno se reconfigura dada la historia colonial, las relaciones de poder y el racismo que lo estructuran.
Mandinga é fundamento. La sociogénesis intercultural e interreligiosa de la Capoeira
Authors: Serna Luna Erick
Published: September 2018

El presente ensayo es una primera aproximación para constituir una reflexión decolonial sobre el arte afrobrasileño conocido como Capoeira. Propongo recuperar la mandinga¸ conducta moral y corporal característica del jogo de Capoeira, para mostrar que la Capoeira es resultado de un proceso transcultural que se enraiza en la sociogénesis de la experiencia de la diáspora africana que fue esclavizada y trasladada a Brasil. Esta diáspora, compuesta por las poblaciones de distintos reinos, y asentada en los territorios brasileños, creó diversos conocimientos a través de procesos interculturales e interreligiosos para resistir y preservar sus conocimientos originarios. Un ejemplo de ello es la Capoeira. En este sentido, la mandinga, representación corporal y moral del “arte del engaño”, es un fundamento que nos permite entender los saberes y técnicas que tuvieron que crear las poblaciones esclavizadas para sobrevivir ante el desarraigo forzado que supuso la esclavitud. Esta política corporal, a pesar de los continuos y constantes procesos de transculturación que caracterizan a la Capoeira, sigue representándose en cada roda y jogo de Capoeira, rememorando en cada movimiento el fundamento de una epistemología política incorporada que muestra la experiencia de la negritud en Brasil.
Raters’ Decision Making Variations in Scoring Writing Samples
Authors: Dabiri Asma
Published: September 2018

This study examined raters’ decision making variations in a writing assessment task focusing on individual differences in decision-making style (DMS). The participants’ of the study were six TEFL instructors. A rating scale obtained from Turner and Upshur, 2002 and a General Decision Making Style Inventory questionnaire, GDMSI, obtained from Scott and Bruce (1995) were administered to raters. The results showed the raters’ behaviors were not equally the same in the same rating situations. These discrepancies suggested individual socio-cognitive differences in accounting for some rater variability in scoring. In addition, characteristics of the texts (not just individual cognitive characteristics) favored certain decision-making behaviors. Accordingly, a re-visioning of the one-size-fits-all approach that is currently the norm in the training of raters for scoring writing assessments is needed. Further, a more individualized approach to rater training is needed. If the individual decision-making style to a great extent is dependent on basic cognitive abilities that are stable and not easily changed, then the decision support systems need to be flexible in order to match the needs of the individual decision makers.
ROXIFYonline: Helping Students Improve Their Writing through Online Feedback
Authors: Miller Roxanne Sue
Published: September 2018

Today’s students want immediate feedback on their writing which instructors often cannot provide.  They embrace the internet and want to use it for learning. To keep pace with these desires, Roxifyonline was created.

 

It is a new online Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) tool that provides automated essay feedback for use by students worldwide.  The program was originally written for ESL learners in Hong Kong, but is now being used by students throughout the Asia Pacific region. It is based on both empirical research and that of other academics.  The program is robust enough to be used for general academic writing from upper secondary through post-graduate levels.

 

It is a free Independent Learning (IL) tool. The program utilizes vocabulary to identify possible errors and provides online IL links to aid in the correction of possible errors in writing.  Unlike other programs, it does not provide suggested corrections. This can help students to become more autonomous in their learning. Comparisons can be made between drafts, and there is an annotation function which can allow for more individualized peer and teacher feedback.
EFL Learners’ Speaking Anxiety in an EOP Program
Authors: Irawan Rifki
Published: September 2018

This research aimed at describing students’ speaking anxiety in EFL classroom at occupation level. It investigated EOP students’ speaking anxiety levels, their sources of anxiety and their coping strategies to reduce it.

This research involved eight students from two classes with different English abilities and employed a qualitative research design, embracing the characteristics of a case study conducted in PT Rekacipta Miratama Bekasi from December 2016 to March 2017. Three kinds of instruments were applied for this research: classroom observation, questionnaires (adapted from Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale by Horwitz), and semi-structured interview. The data were collected by means audio and video recording to capture students’ sources of anxiety and their coping strategies and collaborated with a semi-structured interview. Those data were transcribed and coded by using the categorization from Alwasilahs’ coding strategy (2002) and obtained by quantifying questionnaires in order to know the students’ anxiety levels.

The first finding reveals that the students who categorized as an anxious and a mildly anxious level had the highest percentage (each of them was 37%), while those who categorized as a relaxed and a very relaxed level had the lower of percentage (each of them was 17%). Secondly, the research participants who categorized as an anxious and a mildly anxious level stated that all FLA sources that are a communication apprehension, a test anxiety, and a fear of negative evaluation had similar percentages (each of them 33.34%). Lastly, coping strategies that all anxious students used in this research were anticipation that belonged to compromise behaviors.

As “várias independências”: a contrarrevolução em Portugal e em Pernambuco e os conflitos antilusitanos no período do constitucionalismo (1821-1824)
Authors: Lisly Andréa
Published: September 2018

Este artigo discute algumas das abordagens propostas sobre a questão da manutenção das forças militares, estacionadas em Pernambuco, a fim de assegurar a fidelidade da província às Cortes de Lisboa, entre 1821 e 1823. As tomadas de decisão foram marcadas por conflitos que opuseram, grosso modo, naturais de Pernambuco e portugueses. Discute, também, aspectos do posicionamento de grupos políticos pernambucanos em relação à contrarrevolução em Portugal, em 1824. O objetivo é refletir sobre a complexidade das opções políticas, na província, na conjuntura da independência do Brasil, que não se esgotam com o debate historiográfico sobre o alinhamento com Lisboa (“a outra independência”) ou com o Rio de Janeiro (“a mesma independência”).
Divórcio, conjugações acusatórias e laços de solidariedade (Belém, 1895-1900)
Authors: Campos Ipojucan Dias
Published: September 2018

As reflexões a seguir tiveram como documentos base ações de divórcio impetradas na cidade de Belém-PA entre 1895 e 1900. Nestes autos notou-se que a acusação formal não era suficiente à condenação do/a réu/ré no Tribunal de Justiça do Estado do Pará, assim sendo elaborar outras imputações (sendo que para estas as relações de solidariedade eram elementares) tornava-se essenciais às possibilidades de condenação e absolvição. Dessa forma, o argumento diretor foi o de pensar que a justiça do Estado do Pará, nas teias de processos de divórcio, não via como prudente um auto percorrer apenas o baseado formalmente (uma acusação), ele deveria ser tramado com outras imputações aqui nomeadas de conjugações acusatórias.

Busquei realizar uma discussão teórico-metodológica pautado nos estudos da História Cultural que pretende entender as representações sociais sobre os eventos.
Sultões e banqueiros: a dominação financeira europeia no Império Otomano (Sultans and bankers: european financial domination in the Ottoman Empire)
Authors: Souza Felipe Alexandre Silva
Published: September 2018

Pretendemos discutir a dominação europeia no Império Otomano durante a segunda metade do século XIX, recuperando o histórico da concessão de empréstimos por instituições governamentais e privadas francesas e britânicas a Constantinopla. Esses empréstimos contribuíram para o desenvolvimento de uma correlação de forças desfavorável ao governo otomano, que eventualmente foi obrigado a transferir a estrangeiros o controle direto de suas fontes de renda. Nossa intenção central é ressaltar como esse processo adveio não apenas da expansão planetária do modo de produção capitalista, mas também de questões internas ao Império Otomano, que recorreu aos empréstimos estrangeiros como fonte de recursos para executar projetos próprios.

Located round Nizhny Novgorod one of thelarge commercial and industrial centres of the Povolzhie (the Volga region), these towns possess their own regional specific character determined by the historically developed trade and craft traditions. The location of the main trade street in the town generallayout its relation to the transportation scheme, its planning, housing, architectural dominants, transformations and losses, today's state are studied for each town. Various types of trade streets built in thelate XVIII - early XX centuries are shown: a street-corridor with straight tracing and continuous masonry housing (Gostinny Ryad street in Arzamas), a street with direct tracing and dispersed masonry and masonry-wooden housing (Bolshaya Sovetskaya street in lyskovo), a street with curved picturesque tracing and continuous masonry housing (Nizhegorodskaya street in Pavlovo), space formed by three streets with a multiraw arrangement of continuous masonry buildings (Gorky street Bolshoy Kirovskiy sezd Kooperativny sezd in Gorodets). Two types of today's existence of historically formed trade streets of a smalltown are revealed i.e. an active use (Arzamas, Pavlovo) and stagnation (Lyskovo, Gorodets).Main problems of trade streets' modern use and conditions under which these streets may become valuable public spaces in contemporary understanding of this meaning are identified based on studying historical-culturat natural-ecologicat social-economic, architectural and town-planning criteria of assessment of trade streets' viability in modern conditions and ascertaining potential of their development related to the high historical-cultural value of such complexes.

Migration of population: regularities, problems and their solutions
Authors: Sushkov Yuri S.
Published: September 2018

Migration of the population is an objective reality and is subject to universallaws throughout the world. International migration affects all aspects of thelife of the world community, leads to the evolution of the perception of universal values and rules of behavior, as well as to the emergence of countries with great cultural and ethnic diversity. The speed of migration processes is growing rapidly with the progress of science and technology. The relationship between the place of employment and the place of residence is graduallylosing its significance. The causes of migration need to be divided (and this is done for the first time) into two categories: the causes that cause the displacement oflarge masses of the population in relatively short periods of time, and the reasons thatlead to the constant displacement of small social groups and citizens for a long time. The revealed patterns of internal migration processes in Russia are extremely negative centripetal and hamper the development of the country's economy as a whole and its regions. In conclusion, the article formulates the theoretical prerequisites for solving the problems caused by migration, particularly attention is drawn to the advantage of dispersed migration in front of a compact one.

Dengue fever (DF) is a health problem in Indonesia. The spread of DF occurs through mosquito vectors. Vector control is one of important methods in dengue prevention. However, the occurence of insecticide resistance leads the need of new inovation of botanical insecticide, such tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L). The research aimed to know larvicidal effectivity of tobacco extracts against Aedes aegypti larvae, and also analyzed nicotine content of tobacco leaves which collected from three sites: Semarang, Temanggung, and Kendal; used  experimental design and carried out on March-December 2013. Tobacco leaves was extracted with etanol then tested to Aedes aegypti 3rd instar larvae. The results showed that tobacco leaves from Temanggung was the most active as larvicides, then were followed from Semarang and Kendal. The analysis result showed that to reach 90% death from total number of larvae samples (LD90), required tobacco extract of Kendal at concentration 447ppm, Semarang 241 ppm, and Temanggung 212 ppm. Larvicidal effects of tobacco leaves extract was unproportional to the content of nicotine, such as Semarang (4,69%), Temanggung (3,61%), and Kendal (1,85%).
Development of a Medical Spanish Curriculum for Fourth-Year Medical Students
Authors: Sadanand Arhanti , Ryan Mark H. , Cohen Steven , Ryan Michael S.
Published: September 2018

Introduction: The US Latino population is projected to double over the next 50 years while the proportion of Latino physicians is expected to decrease over the same interval. Spanish curricula within medical schools are common but rarely assess learners for proficiency and are often not incentivized. Family physicians are well positioned to promote the effective delivery of culturally and linguistically appropriate care to Latino patients with limited English proficiency (LEP). Our aim was to develop a replicable, incentivized, medical Spanish curriculum to promote fluency.
Methods: We developed a peer-taught, interactive, case-based medical Spanish curriculum for fourth-year medical students at a single medical school. All fourth-year medical students were eligible to enroll. Seventeen students completed pre- and postintervention questionnaires to rate their self-efficacy in medical Spanish comprehension and vocabulary. At the end of the course, students were also assessed for oral Spanish language skills by a standardized patient (SP).
Results: Students rated themselves as having improved at completing nearly all components of the medical interview and physical in Spanish after completing the course (15/16 tasks, P<0.001).
Conclusion: This peer-led medical Spanish course shows promise as a feasible and sustainable curriculum for teaching medical Spanish and assessing fluency among fourth-year medical students. Establishing a cohort of peers as teachers addresses concerns about cost and reduces the need for faculty support.
Smartphone Use and Professional Communication Among Medical Residents in Primary Care
Authors: Terry Danielle L. , Terry Christopher P.
Published: September 2018

Introduction: The rapid integration and evolution of technology has impacted remote data access, dissemination of medical information, and use of applications (apps) for patient care and treatment. The aims of this study were to (1) describe patterns of smartphone use by residents in a rural clinical setting (both clinical and communicative patterns), (2) examine residents’ perceptions of benefits of smartphone use, and (3) determine whether there is an association between smartphone use and organizational attributes.
Methods: Self-report surveys were administered to family medicine and internal medicine residents (N=39).
Results: Descriptive analyses indicated that primary care residents used their pagers more often for communication, but also believed smartphones were more efficient, and increased accessibility and timeliness of attending physicians. Additional analyses suggested that smartphone use was not associated with chaos, and was negatively correlated with history of culture change within the organization.
Conclusion: Overall, use of smartphones among medical residents is relatively common, and residents believe there are numerous benefits of use. Future research might consider causal reasons why there is reduced communication among primary care practices with a history of change.
Corpos em desafi(n)o
Authors: Carrozza Newton Guilherme Vale
Published: September 2018

Falar da relação entre corpo, ideologia e imaginário é falar, sobretudo, do funcionamento discursivo do corpo.  Ancorados numa perspectiva discursiva, temos empreendido um olhar para determinados lugares que se configuram como espaços privilegiados de observação, pelo modo como articulam sentidos que convergem na relação entre o sujeito e o próprio da ideologia que o constitui em sua forma histórica, na qual ele se coloca com seu corpo. Observando imagens alteradas por aplicativos de edição, que circulam na publicidade e que funcionam, no nosso ponto de vista, como referenciais que afetam os modos como os sujeitos lidam com seus corpos, procuramos compreender como, nessa ciranda do consumo, o sujeito se coloca como algo a ser consumido. Também observamos determinados gestos que, na sua superfície, soam como resistência a uma certa imposição da mídia sobre um ideal de beleza, mas que se sustentam no mesmo processo.

Cautionary Note on the Two-Step Transformation to Normality
Authors: Rönkkö Mikko , Aguirre-Urreta Miguel I.
Published: September 2018

Templeton and Burney (2017) proposed a two-step normality transformation as a remedy for non-normally distributed data, which are commonly found in AIS research. We argue that, rather than transforming the data toward normality, researchers should first seek to analyze and understand the sources of non-normality. Using simulated datasets, we demonstrate three sources of non-normality and their consequences for regression estimation. We then demonstrate that the two-step transformation cannot solve any of these problems and that each source of non-normality can be handled with alternative, existing techniques. We further present two empirical examples to demonstrate these issues with real datasets.
Sophistication of Chinese Mutual Funds and the Mispricing of Accruals
Authors: Fu Jiajia
Published: September 2018

This study examines the role of mutual funds in the pricing of accruals in China's stock market to evaluate the sophistication of Chinese mutual funds. Using a sample of A-share stocks in China from 2003 to 2011, I find that the mispricing of accruals is concentrated in firms with large mutual fund holdings. This result differs from a number of U.S. studies documenting a positive relation between institutional holdings and stock price efficiency. In an effort to explain this result, I provide evidence that mutual funds in China fixate on earnings and fail to understand the one-year-ahead earnings implication of accruals. Specifically, I find that the persistence of accruals is overpriced in stocks with a high level of mutual fund ownership. The mispricing of accruals in these stocks is largely driven by discretionary accruals and is related to their high stock price responsiveness to earnings.

ANALYSIS OF ATMOSPHERIC POLLEN GRAINS IN DURSUNBEY (BALIKESİR), TURKEY
Authors: Akyalcin Hanife , Tosunoglu Aycan , Bicakci Adem
Published: September 2018

In this study, airborne pollen grains in the
atmosphere of Dursunbey (Balıkesir, Turkey) were collected using a gravimetric
method. The pollen grains were investigated by light microscopy and a total of
6265 pollen grains per cm2 were counted. 42 different pollen types
were identified of which 24 belonged to
the arboreal plants (86.17% of the annual pollen index) and 18 to non-arboreal
plants (13.16% of the annual pollen index). A small portion of the pollens (42
grains, 0.67%) were not identified. The most frequent pollen types, which
constituted more than 1% of annual pollen count were regarded as the
predominating pollen types for the region. The predominating group was
determined to be consisted of pollens of Pinus L. (48.23%), Cupressaceae Rich. ex Bartl./Taxaceae Gray
(16.74%), Poaceae Barnhart (8.32%), Quercus L.(5.31%), Acer L. (4.07%), Platanus L.
(3.10%), Juglans L. (2.26%), Abies Mill. (1.75%), Plantago
L. (1.25%), Amaranthaceae Juss. (1.22%) and Olea europaea L. (1.16%).
The highest pollen count was determined in May and it is striking that most of
the determined predominant pollen types have previously been reported as main
causes of pollinosis.
Chemical Bonding and Local Islamic Wisdom of Sasak Tribe, Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara
Authors: Fadli Adi
Published: September 2018

A myriad of traditions underlie the local wisdom of Sasak tribe (the indigenous people in Lombok), namely tradisi merarik (wedding), nenarih (proposing), sorong serah ajikrame (dowry negotiation), langar, begawe (party) , banjar (the community body), begibung (eating together), berayan mangan (eating together), and nyongkolan (wedding parade). Such local customs in general entail the value of mutual concession or tolerance, compassion, dependency, social solidarity, sympathy, communal work for peace, and prosperity. The local wisdoms are strongly relevant to the theory of chemical bonding such as electrostatic stability and configuration, the positive and negative ions, theory of chemical bond formation, polar and nonpolar covalent, coordinate covalent bond, metal bonding, and intermolecular forces comprising hydrogen and Van der Waals bond. The interface and relevance of both are actualized in the religious and social values of Sasak Lombok tradition equivalent to the theory of chemical bonding. Therefore, this paper demonstrates that the theory of chemical bonding is strongly relevantly associated with the tradition of local Islamic wisdom of Sasak Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara.
Oneness of Godâ€™s Concept from Rimba Watualang
Authors: Hikmawati Hanifah , Pitana Titis Srimuda
Published: September 2018

This article examines the intelligence process and attitude of Islamic Teens of Watualang (Remaja Islam Watualang or it is abbreviated as Riswa) which is quite striking in terms of the religious progressivity agenda. The agenda is arranged to have a synergy with the concept of nationalism and nationality. The group comes to the society as the efforts to reaffirm the understanding of Islamic as Ahlussunah Waljamaah in the middle of the religious extremism and radicalism. The encouragement for oneness of God (Tauhid) concept from Riswa becomes the pattern of syncretic Islam. It is implemented by Riswa to convince the teens to promote the moderate concept of Islam. The conception developed over the vision is to foster the pillars of humanity which includes ukhuwah insaniyyah, ukhuwah Islamiyyah, and ukhuwah wathaniyyah. In order to find out the fundamental motivation of Riswaâ€™s establishment, the authors managed two research problems to clearly examine the research findings. They are: (1) What is the reason of the Islamic Teens of Watualangâ€™s establishment? (2) How do the group members implement intelligence attitude to identify the moderate and syncretic pattern of Islamic preaching? The theory of intelligence and adaptation are implemented as a motivational breakdown analysis to obtain Riswaâ€™s legitimacy. The above explanation is elaborated in a descriptive analysis and model forms.
Relevance Between Javanese Pitutur Luhur and Islam Religiosity
Authors: Zakub Riky , Widodo Sahid Teguh , Setiawan Budhi
Published: September 2018

Javanese pitutur luhur is an honorable thought as the inheritance from Javanese ancestors in which it is bequeathed from generation to generation. Pitutur luhur is led as guidance for Javanese societies throughout their life. It contains the ancestorsâ€™ thoughts about some aspects of life since every human being (including Javanese people) has guidance for life. As religious people, for Muslim societies, it is a must to bring Qurâ€™an and hadith into their guidance of life. This study discusses the relevance between Javanese Pitutur luhur and Islamic religiosity based on Qurâ€™an and hadith. The result of this study shows that there is harmony and relevance between Javanese Pitutur luhur and Islam religiosity as explained in Qurâ€™an and Hadith. To sum up, both of them can be equal to the guidance of life, and to provide directions in the middle of deculturation, dereligiosity, paganism, and secularism towards religious and cultural values.
At-a-glance - What can paramedic data tell us about the opioid crisis in Canada?
Authors: Do Minh T. , Furlong Greg , Rietschlin Micah , Leyenaar Matthew , Nolan Michael , Poirier Pierre , Field Brian , Thompson Wendy
Published: September 2018

The nature of Canada’s opioid crisis necessitates additional data sources that can provide
a more comprehensive picture of the epidemic, in order to provide public health
officials and decision-makers with a robust evidence base. Paramedic data provide a
conduit into the community where overdoses occur.
Prehospital events and circumstances surrounding opioid-related overdoses provide
unique opportunities to collect evidence that can contribute to prevention, harm reduction
and health promotion efforts. Using data extracted from the Ottawa Paramedic
Service (OPS), this proof-of-concept study demonstrated that paramedic response data
were useful in providing near real-time epidemiological information (person, time and
place) on the opioid epidemic and in assessing trends and opportunities to develop alert
triggers.
Between January and June 2017, the OPS responded to an average of four opioid-related
calls each week. On average, 0.5 mg of naloxone was administered each time. For the
study period, linear trends show a small but insignificant increase in calls (p = 0.18). A
higher volume of calls occurred between April 16 and 29, 2017. According to local
media reports, this spike in paramedic responses was due to the arrival of high-grade
fentanyl in Ottawa.
With further validation, paramedic data can potentially provide a novel data source to
monitor opioid-related overdoses.

El objetivo de nuestro trabajo es analizar algunas características de una práctica cada vez más extendida: la exhibición sexual del cuerpo en medios digitales. Conocida mediáticamente como sexting, esta actividad consiste en sacarse fotos o filmarse en situaciones eróticas y compartirlas con otras personas a través de un teléfono inteligente. La problemática de género atraviesa esta moda de múltiples formas; centraremos nuestra atención en las miradas que se posan sobre la figura femenina y a cómo debe ser el cuerpo que se muestra. Realizamos una serie de entrevistas en profundidad a mujeres de diversas edades que se consideran practicantes de sexting, para poder conocer cómo se realiza esta práctica, qué características tiene, qué sienten las mujeres al realizarla, cuáles son sus expectativas, miedos y objetivos. Describiremos dos rasgos que nos impactaron particularmente: el lugar que la propia mirada y la de los demás ocupa en el sexting y cómo aparece retratado el cuerpo femenino en estas imágenes. Presentaremos una serie de viñetas extraídas de las entrevistas para reflexionar sobre lo que allí se dice; para ello, haremos pie en diversos autores provenientes de la filosofía, el psicoanálisis y la sociología.
Diálogos para una estética de la deconstitución. Monumentos, antimonumentos y dispositivos de recuerdos, memorias y prácticas
Authors: Barbieri Ariel
Published: September 2018

El presente trabajo propone en primer lugar, un diálogo entre dos desarrollos teóricos diferentes que encuentran en el espacio de esta escritura, posibles conjeturas acerca de la monumentalidad y su modalización temporal y espacial.Convergen en este intercambio, conceptos desarrollados por Yuriko Saito, relativos a la estética del clima, y de Rodolfo Kusch, vinculados con la estética de lo americano. A este primer encuadre, se agregan diferentes desarrollos y reflexiones que desde la Semiótica y la Filosofía permiten distintos tipos de articulaciones entre los autores propuestos.En este sentido, es un trabajo de exploración ensayística que tiene la pretensión de abrir el campo conceptual de la dualidad monumentalidad/antimonumentalidad para aportar a la construcción de un aparato crítico que permita establecer nuevas proyecciones/designaciones; símbolos abiertos para deconstruir estos emplazamientos y proyectar sus posibles transformaciones.Se estructura en tres diálogos. El primero desarrolla el vínculo entre el clima y el territorio; el segundo, la relación entre lo individual y lo colectivo; el tercero, el lugar que ocupan los monumentos occidentales en América como productores de otredad.Además de este encuadre general que estructura el trabajo, existe un segundo momento en el cual se establecen otros posibles intercambios vinculados con distintas hipótesis a partir de la cuales proyectar diferentes modos de hacer y proponer obras. Obras que permitan abordar desde distintas perspectivas teóricas y estéticas la tensión de un campo que se expande, en donde lo discursivo y lo proyectual se articulan en enunciados que refractan la complejidad de un abordaje múltiple.
Las causas del curanderismo según la prensa en Tandil y en Buenos Aires a principios del siglo XX
Authors: Dahhur Astrid
Published: September 2018

En este ensayo analizamos algunas notas periodísticas publicadas en revistas y periódicos de la ciudad de Buenos Aires y la ciudad de Tandil sobre la medicina popular. Buscamos visibilizar la importancia que tuvieron estas publicaciones como voceras de los médicos, políticos y ciudadanos letrados respecto de sus opiniones sobre la medicina popular y las consecuencias para la salud de la población.Asimismo sus dichos permiten reconstruir en parte el estado sanitario de la población, así como las cuestiones culturales, económicas y sociales que permitían la existencia de médicos populares durante un periodo en el que se daba un proceso de medicalización en el territorio argentino. Como veremos, la prensa señalaba distintas razones por las que existían los llamados curanderos, sin embargo apuntaban directamente a la medicina como así también a la falta de educación de la población como responsables.
Comunicación/Educación: escenarios de la definición del campo
Authors: Catino Magalí , Torres Margarita Eva , Genoud María Gelly
Published: September 2018

El presente artículo analiza los contextos de emergencia de los profesorados en comunicación en las universidades nacionales de la República Argentina. Pretende rastrear y describir preliminarmente las transformaciones sociales que han repercutido en la configuración del campo Comunicación/Educación.Los datos que se ofrecen surgen del trabajo que se viene realizando en la investigación “Comunicación/Educación: formación de formadores en comunicación social en universidades nacionales de Argentina. Tendencias y perspectivas”.  A partir de él es posible delinear algunas de las dimensiones centrales que han dado emergencia a las carreras de profesorados en Comunicación.Los análisis permiten apreciar que las políticas de corte neoliberal aplicadas en la región, con mayor incidencia en la década de los 90, han impactado en la educación superior afectando diversos factores, particularmente los relativos a la estructuración de los planes de estudio.Es posible advertir que los cambios que impuso la normativa vigente en cada etapa, así como la demanda por ampliar las posibilidades de inserción laboral de los graduados de licenciaturas y la supremacía de las nuevas tecnologías de la información, son algunos de los factores que han incidido al interior del campo y que son relevados inicialmente en el artículo.

Published: September 2018

En este trabajo reflexionaré sobre mi experiencia en la carrera de Comunicación Social de la Universidad Nacional de Moreno, en el marco del Taller de Transmedia y Documental Interactivo, del que fui profesor titular durante 2015 y 2016. Me referiré también al trabajo en el marco del Taller de proyectos documentales transmedia, perteneciente a la Maestría en Periodismo documental de la Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero, que dicté entre los meses de octubre y noviembre de 2016. Analizaré dos de las producciones más destacadas de los estudiantes en esos ámbitos, con el fin de reflexionar sobre los usos y las posibilidades que el transmedia tiene en el ámbito educativo.
El video tutorial como herramienta de educación no formal en estudiantes de Bogotá, Colombia
Authors: González Orlando
Published: September 2018

Esta investigación buscó conocer cuál es el uso del video tutorial como alternativa para la educación no formal, en estudiantes de los colegios La Amistad y Distrital Kennedy de Bogotá, Colombia (2016-2017). Se diseñó una metodología mixta, que empleó setenta encuestas físicas y ochenta digitales, para una muestra de 150 de un total de 300 educandos. Además de un grupo focal, realizado en dos jornadas de una hora con diez estudiantes de décimo y undécimo grado, en ambos colegios. Los resultados indicaron que la relación de los jóvenes con las nuevas tecnologías favorece el aprendizaje. La mayoría de los estudiantes usan YouTube constantemente para consultar sus actividades académicas y otros contenidos. Esta plataforma contiene una gran cantidad de videos tutoriales de fácil acceso, donde predominó el interés por la investigación, los idiomas y la tecnología, además saber sobre profesiones y oficios. De este modo, se evidenció que la web es una fuente de educación no formal y el video tutorial una excelente opción por sus características didácticas y su diversidad de temáticas.
¿Qué interpelamos cuando pensamos la ciudad? Fundaciones, proyectos y preguntas de investigación en la obra de Chicago
Authors: Hidalgo Ana Laura
Published: September 2018

El artículo recupera la tradición de los clásicos de la Escuela de Chicago para pensar en preguntas de investigación acerca de la ciudad como objeto de estudio. Ante la imposibilidad de considerar una historia lineal, se presentan tres fundaciones diferentes que dieron lugar a la delimitación del objeto de estudio de los investigadores del Departamento de Sociología de la Universidad de Chicago de principios del siglo XX. Esto condiciona la diversidad de proyectos de los clásicos, proponiendo una relectura de la obra de Park.
Ni “grieta” ni “degradación moral”: un contraste empírico del relato político en Argentina
Authors: Jorge José Eduardo
Published: September 2018

En estos años ha ganado sonoridad en nuestro país una línea de discursos que enfatizan presuntos defectos culturales de los argentinos. Estas narrativas han puesto el foco en la existencia de una “grieta” o división política tajante en la sociedad y, más recientemente, en aspectos como la aparente degradación moral del país y la inclinación de sus ciudadanos a depender del Estado en detrimento del esfuerzo personal. Usando las bases de datos de la World Values Survey y, de modo complementario, Latinobarómetro, el trabajo contrasta empíricamente los supuestos básicos de estos relatos examinando cómo evolucionaron en las últimas tres décadas las actitudes y valores de los argentinos en un conjunto de temas económicos y culturales clave. El análisis se extiende a la sociedad como un todo y algunos de sus grupos sociales, como las personas politizadas, los votantes partidarios y las regiones geográficas. Aplica, en particular, el método desarrollado por DiMaggio, Evans y Bryson para el estudio de la polarización política de la sociedad. La evidencia empírica arroja que los supuestos de estos discursos no tienen correlato en la realidad y que, en los últimos años, los argentinos tendieron a converger, antes que a divergir, en temas fundamentales.
Seguritización de la indigeneidad. La actual política indigenista de Argentina y Chile
Authors: Leone Miguel
Published: September 2018

En Argentina, la llegada de un partido de derecha al gobierno nacional implicó modificaciones pronunciadas en muchas de las dimensiones de la construcción de estatalidad. La política estatal indigenista es un ejemplo de ello. Este artículo sostiene que se está consolidando un modelo de política gubernamental basado en la seguritización de la indigeneidad y que reconoce en el caso chileno su principal referente. Partiendo de esa afirmación, el trabajo analiza los vasos comunicantes entre la administración de los conflictos etno territoriales por parte del Estado chileno durante los últimos años y la actual política estatal indigenista argentina. Se asume que, al compás de mutaciones en las políticas indigenistas de ambos países, la idea de “indígena” está siendo reinventada e inscripta en nuevas estrategias de gubernamentalidad.
Movimiento estudiantil mendocino y genocidio: tratamiento de Los Andes durante los primeros meses del periodo autoritario
Authors: Baigorria Bernal María Paula
Published: September 2018

La dictadura cívico-militar que irrumpió en nuestro país en 1976 se propuso, entre sus principales acciones, llevar a cabo un plan sistemático de persecución y eliminación de sus adversarios/as políticos. Pero esta tarea no se hubiera logrado sin una serie de complicidades civiles y empresariales; el papel de los medios de comunicación, por ejemplo, fue fundamental. En este sentido, este trabajo se propone analizar el tratamiento periodístico realizado por el diario Los Andes sobre el movimiento estudiantil mendocino durante los primeros meses del gobierno de facto. El estudio de la prensa local es abordado desde la teoría del análisis crítico del discurso (ACD) y desde la teoría de las identidades mediáticas.El objetivo general del estudio es contribuir a generar conocimiento sobre el rol de la prensa mendocina durante el genocidio. En el trabajo se observó cómo el papel de la prensa fue fundamental para montar y justificar la acción del aparato represivo. Así, los/as estudiantes universitarios/as (y con ellos la juventud de la época) fueron demonizados, catalogados de subversivos, extremistas, terroristas y enemigos de la Patria, justificando su persecución, desaparición y/o asesinato.
