Sustainability of Evaporative Cooling System for Environment Control for Preservation of Unearthed Historical Sites within Archaeological Museums in China
Authors: Chang Bin , Dang Yuexi , Luo Xilian , Yu Chuck Wah , Gu Zhaolin
Published: November 2020

Archaeological museums are usually constructed at the location where historical relic sites are unearthed and are often characterized by large-space building layouts and high energy consumption for the environmental control. However, the traditional strategies for environmental control are limited in protecting the unearthed relics from desiccation cracking and salt concentration. In this study, an environmental control strategy of evaporative cooling system is proposed as a solution to develop a sustainable preservation environment to maintain the condition of the ancient relics at a state of moist saturation. Afterwards, a verification of sustainability and climate suitability analysis of the proposed system were conducted. The results indicate that (1) the evaporative cooling system can fulfil the high humidity preservation environment requirements for the unearthed historical relic sites with a low energy consumption; and (2) the potential use of the evaporative cooling systems is significant in Xi’an and Chengdu (i.e., being 62% and 75%, respectively), and not in Lanzhou and Urumqi. As a conclusion, the proposed strategy provides a sustainable protocol for the preservation of unearthed historical relic sites in archaeological museum.
Understanding the Role of Standards in the Negotiation of a Healthy Built Environment
Authors: Callway Rosalie , Pineo Helen , Moore Gemma
Published: November 2020

A growing number of international standards promote Healthy Built Environment (HBE) principles which aim to enhance occupant and user health and wellbeing. Few studies examine the implementation of these standards; whether and how they affect health through changes to built-environment design, construction, and operations. This study reviews a set of sustainability and HBE standards, based on a qualitative analysis of standard documents, standard and socio-technical literature on normalization and negotiation, and interviews with 31 practitioners from four geographical regions. The analysis indicates that standards can impact individual, organizational, and market-scale definitions of an HBE. Some changes to practice are identified, such as procurement and internal layout decisions. There is more limited evidence of changes to dominant, short-term decision-making practices related to cost control and user engagement in operational decisions. HBE standards risk establishing narrow definitions of health and wellbeing focused on building occupants rather than promoting broader, contextually situated, principles of equity, inclusion, and ecosystem functioning crucial for health. There is a need to improve sustainability and HBE standards to take better account of local contexts and promote systems thinking. Further examination of dominant collective negotiation processes is required to identify opportunities to better embed standards within organizational practice.
A Mediation and Moderation Model of Social Support, Relationship Quality and Social Commerce Intention
Authors: Hossain Md. Alamgir , Jahan Nusrat , Kim Minho
Published: November 2020

This study examines the antecedents of social commerce intention by conceptualizing a model that includes two exogenous variables; relationship quality and social support, and an endogenous variable; social commerce, along with a mediation effect of relationship quality and moderation effect of cultures. This research model is tested by survey data collected in the United States and Korea, analyzed by a structural equation model. The results reveal that relationship quality generates the social commerce intention through commitment, satisfaction and trust, and becomes a maiden study with its mediating effect on social commerce intention. Social commerce intention is highly representative of social sharing and social shopping on social media. The social support is measured through emotional and informational support, proving to be a stronger predictor of relationship quality and social commerce intention. In addition, social support articulates differences in respect to the cultural differences. The model offers valuable insights to researchers and practitioners that aims to improve social commerce intention.

Published: November 2020

In order to deal with the effects of globalization, urbanization, increase in world population, global warming, and climate change; and according to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 2 targets, which aim to end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture, it is urgently needed to transform our agriculture and livestock farming systems by taking into account the environmental considerations. The Breeding and management practices of indigenous bovine breeds: Solutions towards a sustainable future (BOVISOL) project is a scientific cooperation between three Mediterranean countries (Greece, Tunisia and Algeria) supported and funded by the European Commission under the European Research Area Networks (ERA-NET) scheme of the 7th Framework Programme. This project has been formed around the hypothesis that the local bovine breeds must be preserved since they possess a valuable genetic pool, and they are a part of the landscape and the biodiversity of rural areas. Moreover, their products (milk, cheese, meat, etc.) could contribute significantly to the local economies as they could easily be associated with recent food trends like “local” and “slow food”, which are considered today, as, not only a mean of nutrition, but also a way of living and a part of people’s identity. BOVISOL project aims to: (i) identify the local breeds and populations in a national level, (ii) describe the existing farm and breeding practices, (iii) analyze the quality of the main local animal products, (iv) propose solutions that will promote the sustainability of the traditional farming systems, especially nowadays that climate change proposes new challenges on animal production, and (v) disseminate the solutions on all the levels of the sector (farmers, scientists, local communities, governmental agencies).

Published: November 2020

Climate change is a serious threat to agriculture in many developing countries including Pakistan. Changing pattern of climate and its extreme conditions have already led to a decline in crop productivity. However, farmers in developing countries experience risks beyond just climate change, many of which are related to policy, strategy, and factor endowments. The impact of these risks have serious implications for food security, rural livelihood, farm households’ wellbeing, and, above all, their motive to adapt to these changes in the long-term. To have an in-depth knowledge of farmers’ perceptions about the changing climate, this study investigates various aspects such as the determinants of perception about various risk sources and the relevant mitigation and adaptation options. To do so, 480 farmers from agriculture-dominated Punjab province were randomly selected in order for us to evaluate their awareness levels, socioeconomic dynamics that influence their perceptions, and various factors that influence their perceptions to achieve the desired findings. We applied the principle factor analysis approach to ascertain major sources and strategies based on farmers’ perception and planned/practiced options. Further, regression analysis was done to evaluate the factors influencing the perception levels of farmers about risk sources. The results showed that majority of the farmers faced various risks, and were trying to adapt crop husbandry practices towards these perceived risks. Change in agricultural policies (3.96) was placed as the highest risk source, while the need for small dams/turbine schemes was the top priority for risk management strategy (mean value of 4.39). By observing the effect of farm and farmer’s characteristics on risk sources and risk management strategies, it was revealed that these characteristics ominously provoked farmers’ perspectives about risk sources and management strategies. The findings imply the need for coherent environmental policy that encompasses price stability, community-led adaptation campaigns, and easy/uninterrupted flows of information that enables the farming community to facilitate sustainable decision processes.

Published: November 2020

This paper aimed to evaluate the Portuguese scientific production within Tourism, Leisure and Hospitality Management (TLHM). To this end, 572 papers from 51 peer-reviewed Scopus journals were mapped through a mixed bibliometric analysis method. The results indicated that Portugal has a significant TLHM research production, with an outstanding performance in terms of topic prominence percentile. Additionally, Portuguese TLHM research collaboration has increased significantly in recent years. It should be pointed out, however, that this production is significantly skewed towards tourism-specific studies rather than hospitality. This study presents a new bibliometric contribution by bringing the SciVal topic prominence and prominence percentile to the TLHM field and presenting a new country research performance model, indicating a new way to evaluate a country’s research performance. Additionally, this investigation featuring the overall structure of Portuguese TLHM research provides clear outlines to concerned bodies regarding researcher and institution performance and gives helpful and timely information to researchers, scholars, government managers, industry managers, and tourism and hospitality consultants.

Authors: Coscia Cristina , Mukerjee Subhash , Palmieri Bianca Ludovica , Quintanal Rivacoba Chiara
Published: November 2020

The environmental, economic and social challenges re-launched in the European Union Agendas (e.g., Horizon 2020 and Europe 2020–2030) have recently returned to being highly debated. In particular, policies and interventions in the field of social housing (SH) are still remaining crucial issues for urban regeneration. These interventions are aimed to combine sustainability criteria with architectural, urban and environmental quality. In this context, our goal in this article is to provide an innovative perspective on the topic highlighting the positive returns enabled by the logic of the social impact approach (SIA). A pilot project is proposed to be performed in the VI arrondissement of Paris. Starting from the French regulatory context and the requirements set by the “Paris Affordable Housing Challenge” competition, the levers of social finance for new social demands and the levers of incentives are applied to a real case. The research results show that the application of the emerging principles of social impact investing (SII) in areas difficult to access in the private market had positive returns. The final aim of the article is to outline guidelines that consider the quality, management and generation of the social impact requirements highlighted in the proposal to facilitate the application of the SIA to other interventions and contexts.
A Parametric Quantile Regression Model for Asymmetric Response Variables on the Real Line
Authors: Gallardo Diego I. , Bourguignon Marcelo , Galarza Christian E. , Gómez Héctor W.
Published: November 2020

In this paper, we introduce a novel parametric quantile regression model for asymmetric response variables, where the response variable follows a power skew-normal distribution. By considering a new convenient parametrization, these distribution results are very useful for modeling different quantiles of a response variable on the real line. The maximum likelihood method is employed to estimate the model parameters. Besides, we present a local influence study under different perturbation settings. Some numerical results of the estimators in finite samples are illustrated. In order to illustrate the potential for practice of our model, we apply it to a real dataset.
Applying a Hybrid Sequential Model to Chinese Sentence Correction
Authors: Chen Jun Wei , Sigalingging Xanno K. , Leu Jenq-Shiou , Takada Jun-Ichi
Published: November 2020

In recent years, Chinese has become one of the most popular languages globally. The demand for automatic Chinese sentence correction has gradually increased. This research can be adopted to Chinese language learning to reduce the cost of learning and feedback time, and help writers check for wrong words. The traditional way to do Chinese sentence correction is to check if the word exists in the predefined dictionary. However, this kind of method cannot deal with semantic error. As deep learning becomes popular, an artificial neural network can be applied to understand the sentence’s context to correct the semantic error. However, there are still many issues that need to be discussed. For example, the accuracy and the computation time required to correct a sentence are still lacking, so maybe it is still not the time to adopt the deep learning based Chinese sentence correction system to large-scale commercial applications. Our goal is to obtain a model with better accuracy and computation time. Combining recurrent neural network and Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT), a recently popular model, known for its high performance and slow inference speed, we introduce a hybrid model which can be applied to Chinese sentence correction, improving the accuracy and also the inference speed. Among the results, BERT-GRU has obtained the highest BLEU Score in all experiments. The inference speed of the transformer-based original model can be improved by 1131% in beam search decoding in the 128-word experiment, and greedy decoding can also be improved by 452%. The longer the sequence, the larger the improvement.
Social Media and E-mail Marketing Campaigns: Symmetry versus Convergence
Authors: Păvăloaia Vasile-Daniel , Anastasiei Ionuț-Daniel , Fotache Doina
Published: November 2020

Companies use social business intelligence (SBI) to identify and collect strategically significant information from a wide range of publicly available data sources, such as social media (SM). This study is an SBI-driven analysis of a company operating in the insurance sector. It underlines the contribution of SBI technology to sustainable profitability of a company by using an optimized marketing campaign on Facebook, in symmetry with a traditional e-mail campaign. Starting from a campaign on SM, the study identified a client portfolio, processed data, and applied a set of statistical methods, such as the index and the statistical significance (T-test), which later enabled the authors to validate research hypotheses (RH), and led to relevant business decisions. The study outlines the preferences of the selected group of companies for the manner in which they run a marketing campaign on SM in symmetry with an e-mail-run campaign. Although the study focused on the practical field of insurance, the suggested model can be used by any company of any industry proving that BI technologies is the nexus of collecting and interpreting results that are essential, globally applicable, and lead to sustainable development of companies operating in the age of globalization. The results of the study prove that symmetrical unfolding (time and opportunity symmetry) of SM marketing campaigns, and using email, could lead to better results compared to two separate marketing campaigns. Moreover, the outcomes of both campaigns showed convergence on SBI platforms, which led to higher efficiency of management of preferences of campaign beneficiaries in the insurance sector.

Published: November 2020

Mass media not only reflect the activities of state bodies but also shape the informational context, sentiment, depth, and significance level attributed to certain state initiatives and social events. Multilateral and quantitative (to the practicable extent) assessment of media activity is important for understanding their objectivity, role, focus, and, ultimately, the quality of the society’s “fourth power”. The paper proposes a method for evaluating the media in several modalities (topics, evaluation criteria/properties, classes), combining topic modeling of the text corpora and multiple-criteria decision making. The evaluation is based on an analysis of the corpora as follows: the conditional probability distribution of media by topics, properties, and classes is calculated after the formation of the topic model of the corpora. Several approaches are used to obtain weights that describe how each topic relates to each evaluation criterion/property and to each class described in the paper, including manual high-level labeling, a multi-corpora approach, and an automatic approach. The proposed multi-corpora approach suggests assessment of corpora topical asymmetry to obtain the weights describing each topic’s relationship to a certain criterion/property. These weights, combined with the topic model, can be applied to evaluate each document in the corpora according to each of the considered criteria and classes. The proposed method was applied to a corpus of 804,829 news publications from 40 Kazakhstani sources published from 01 January 2018 to 31 December 2019, to classify negative information on socially significant topics. A BigARTM model was derived (200 topics) and the proposed model was applied, including to fill a table of the analytical hierarchical process (AHP) and all of the necessary high-level labeling procedures. Experiments confirm the general possibility of evaluating the media using the topic model of the text corpora, because an area under receiver operating characteristics curve (ROC AUC) score of 0.81 was achieved in the classification task, which is comparable with results obtained for the same task by applying the BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) model.
Secure w-Domination in Graphs
Authors: Martínez Abel Cabrera , Estrada-Moreno Alejandro , Rodríguez-Velázquez Juan A.
Published: November 2020

This paper introduces a general approach to the idea of protection of graphs, which encompasses the known variants of secure domination and introduces new ones. Specifically, we introduce the study of secure w-domination in graphs, where w=(w0,w1,…,wl) is a vector of nonnegative integers such that w0≥1. The secure w-domination number is defined as follows. Let G be a graph and N(v) the open neighborhood of v∈V(G). We say that a function f:V(G)⟶{0,1,…,l} is a w-dominating function if f(N(v))=∑u∈N(v)f(u)≥wi for every vertex v with f(v)=i. The weight of f is defined to be ω(f)=∑v∈V(G)f(v). Given a w-dominating function f and any pair of adjacent vertices v,u∈V(G) with f(v)=0 and f(u)>0, the function fu→v is defined by fu→v(v)=1, fu→v(u)=f(u)−1 and fu→v(x)=f(x) for every x∈V(G)\{u,v}. We say that a w-dominating function f is a secure w-dominating function if for every v with f(v)=0, there exists u∈N(v) such that f(u)>0 and fu→v is a w-dominating function as well. The secure w-domination number of G, denoted by γws(G), is the minimum weight among all secure w-dominating functions. This paper provides fundamental results on γws(G) and raises the challenge of conducting a detailed study of the topic.

Published: November 2020

We investigated the phenotypic and genotypic antibiotic resistance, and clonality of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) implicated in community-acquired urinary tract infections (CA-UTIs) in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Mid-stream urine samples (n = 143) were cultured on selective media. Isolates were identified using the API 20E kit and their susceptibility to 17 antibiotics tested using the disk diffusion method. Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) were detected using ROSCO kits. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect uropathogenic E. coli (targeting the papC gene), and β-lactam (blaTEM/blaSHV-like and blaCTX-M) and fluoroquinolone (qnrA, qnrB, qnrS, gyrA, parC, aac(6’)-Ib-cr, and qepA) resistance genes. Clonality was ascertained using ERIC-PCR. The prevalence of UTIs of Gram-negative etiology among adults 18–60 years of age in the uMgungundlovu District was 19.6%. Twenty-six E. coli isolates were obtained from 28 positive UTI samples. All E. coli isolates were papC-positive. The highest resistance was to ampicillin (76.9%) and the lowest (7.7%) to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and gentamycin. Four isolates were multidrug-resistant and three were ESBL-positive, all being CTX-M-positive but SHV-negative. The aac(6’)-Ib-cr and gyrA were the most detected fluoroquinolone resistance genes (75%). Isolates were clonally distinct, suggesting the spread of genetically diverse UPEC clones within the three communities. This study highlights the spread of genetically diverse antibiotic-resistant CA-UTI aetiologic agents, including multidrug-resistant ones, and suggests a revision of current treatment options for CA-UTIs in rural and urban settings.
Avian Influenza A Virus Associations in Wild, Terrestrial Mammals: A Review of Potential Synanthropic Vectors to Poultry Facilities
Authors: Root J. Jeffrey , Shriner Susan A.
Published: November 2020

The potential role of wild mammals in the epidemiology of influenza A viruses (IAVs) at the farm-side level has gained increasing consideration over the past two decades. In some instances, select mammals may be more likely to visit riparian areas (both close and distant to farms) as well as poultry farms, as compared to traditional reservoir hosts, such as waterfowl. Of significance, many mammalian species can successfully replicate and shed multiple avian IAVs to high titers without prior virus adaptation and often can shed virus in greater quantities than synanthropic avian species. Within this review, we summarize and discuss the potential risks that synanthropic mammals could pose by trafficking IAVs to poultry operations based on current and historic literature.

Redes sociales, catolicismo liberacionista y represión en el Barrio San Martín
Authors: Rodríguez Agüero Laura
Published: November 2020

Durante los años ’60 y ’70, en el Barrio San Martín, se produjeron una serie de hechos y procesos que tendrían hondas repercusiones en la sociedad mendocina de la época. Alrededor del sacerdote jesuita José María “Macuca” Llorens confluyeron numerosos jóvenes, que junto a vecinos/as del naciente barrio obrero, protagonizaron experiencias novedosas y disruptivas, que provocarían alarma en las fuerzas de seguridad. En este trabajo, apuntaremos a identificar las principales redes densas que se dieron en el espacio comunitario del Barrio San Martín, a fin de analizar, por un lado, de qué modo estas contribuyeron en los procesos identitarios vivenciados por estudiantes y vecinos y, por otro, qué implicancias tuvieron en la constitución de redes sociales extensas que aportaron a la creciente movilización social y política de la Mendoza de esos años. Se estudiará, asimismo, cómo estas redes fueron percibidas por las fuerzas armadas y de seguridad, y cómo la figura de Llorens como “generador de militancias” adquirió cierta “peligrosidad”, según la visión de los perpetradores del terror estatal y paraestatal.

Descamisado(s), descamisada(s). Palabra y concepto durante el peronismo
Authors: Waissbein Daniel
Published: November 2020

El trabajo examina las circunstancias que rodearon a la introducción y el uso, en el contexto peronista, poco después de 1945, de la voz descamisado(s) descamisadas(s) –existente en romance al menos desde el año 1304, cuando scamiciati era sinónimo de “desnudos”, como se comprueba en un sermón pronunciado en Florencia– y las hesitaciones que el término suscitó en el espíritu del líder del movimiento, en contraste con el entusiasmo de Eva Duarte, su verdadera impulsora. Se consideran, asimismo, las tergiversaciones y manipulaciones ideológicas a las que dio lugar, entre las que figuran matices religiosos e interpretaciones racistas de exaltación de lo supuestamente autóctono y denigración de “lo extranjero” y “contrario a la nacionalidad”. Se analiza también la confusión que existió entre descamisados y pueblo; las imágenes visuales destinadas a exaltar la figura del descamisado y, por último, sus ecos en la guerrilla montonera donde un escuadrón de muerte dependía, según parece, de un periódico que llevaba su nombre.

Authors: Aldao Joaquín A.
Published: November 2020

En el presente artículo se analizan las huelgas ferroviarias (1950-1951), presentadas como un conflicto político en un contexto de hegemonía peronista en el gremio y contextualizadas en un proceso de profundas transformaciones en las prácticas sindicales. Estas transformaciones, se abordan en el marco de las tensiones políticas que produjo el fortalecimiento institucional del sindicalismo en el movimiento peronista, y en el imprevisto cambio en la relación entre el sindicato y el Estado que precede al proceso de nacionalización de los ferrocarriles. Estas huelgas, son la expresión de máxima tensión en el vínculo entre la identidad ferroviaria y el peronismo.

La declaración de independencia de las colonias angloamericanas en 1776 y las posteriores declaraciones de guerra de Francia en 1778 y de España en 1779 a Inglaterra desataron un torbellino de efectos para estas naciones que ejemplifican perfectamente lo que podríamos llamar una victoria pírrica. Para Francia el gasto desmedido de la contienda lo llevó a la bancarrota y a la posterior revolución de 1789-1793. En el caso de España del mismo modo los gastos bélicos produjeron un desequilibrio importante de sus finanzas, abriendo un proceso que terminaría con la crisis de su dominio en América.

La diferencia entre un editor independiente y un director literario de un sello, que pertenece a un grupo económico, se encuentra en que el segundo se halla “en un estado de independencia vigilada a expensas de sus resultados. Si el sello no funciona, se cambia el equipo directivo o bien se cancelan sus actividades. Aunque el editor independiente también está vigilado por el mercado: si se equivoca demasiado, desaparece o es engullido por un gran grupo”. Estas palabras del editor de Anagrama, Jorge Herralde, en 1998 fueron proféticas porque en enero del 2016 el grupo italiano Feltrinelli se hizo cargo de la mayoría accionaria de la emblemática editorial española. Desarrollar un “proyecto editorial, coherente y reconocible, con un cuidado artesanal en la producción de sus libros, un acopio sistemático de información, una distribución eficaz, presencia en la prensa y solidez económica para defenderse de las incursiones corsarias” eran las señas de identidad que propuso Herralde para reconocer un sello donde el editor gozara de autonomía.

En La invención social de la Iglesia en la Edad Media Dominique Iogna-Prat trabaja el papel de la iglesia como concepto teológico y a su vez como institución, la cual a través de los siglos se irá redefiniendo dentro de las pujas de poder. El autor propone que la Iglesia se construirá a sí misma progresivamente como una unidad indisoluble del todo social, creando así una confusión metonímica entre sociedad y eclessia. El sector eclesiástico se constituirá como un “nosotros” identitario, en pos de monopolizar el control sobre todas las relaciones sociales. Para demostrar esto, el autor tomará los cambios institucionales ejemplificados ampliamente durante su obra, donde se verá cómo el poder clerical se torna cada vez más corporativo, burocrático y de una ostentación material monumental. Este accionar tiene un claro objetivo ideológico: imponer la idea de que un creyente debe concurrir a un espacio sagrado específico para poder ser parte de la comunidad que lo rodea.
La renegociación de la unión desde la perspectiva litúrgica. Tucumán, 1816-1819
Authors: Wilde Ana
Published: November 2020

A mediados de la década de 1810, la guerra independentista y la unión entre las provincias rioplatenses zozobraban. En ese momento, se negoció la reunión de un Congreso en Tucumán para definir el curso de la conflagración y la política de la región. Cumplido su objetivo de máxima –la independencia–, la asamblea acordó una liturgia política que naturalizara la imagen de orden y unión. Sin embargo, esta liturgia presentó también tensiones e imágenes en conflicto. El objetivo de este trabajo es –a través del estudio de las celebraciones y los discursos políticos públicos– recrear las imágenes, conflictos y diagnósticos que se construyeron en la escena tucumana significando la coyuntura política del período de cara al resto de las Provincias Unidas.

Retornar al derecho: notas para una historia cultural de lo jurídico
Authors: Velasco Pedraza Julián Andrei
Published: November 2020

Este texto explora, historiográficamente, el problema de una historia cultural de lo jurídico. Rastrea de manera panorámica el desarrollo de diversas formas de hacer historia del derecho poniendo énfasis en algunos trabajos de las últimas décadas sobre el Antiguo Régimen, para mostrar cómo una culturización de lo jurídico ha generado nuevos enfoques e ideas. Tal vez, la evidencia más clara es la producción reciente sobre impartición de justicia en los reinos de las Indias, en los cuales se demuestra las nuevas concepciones sobre la normatividad y las instituciones en sus dimensiones jurídicas, culturales, políticas y sociales.

Reseña de: GAUDICHAUD, Franck Las fisuras del neoliberalismo chileno. Trabajo, crisis de la “democracia tutelada” y conflictos de clase, Quimantú y Tiempo Robado Editoras, Santiago de Chile, 2015.
Authors: Posternak Andrés
Published: November 2020

La publicación de este nuevo libro de Franck Gaudichaud viene a continuar con una serie de trabajos publicados por el autor sobre Chile, camino que inició en 2004 con la publicación de Poder popular y Cordones industriales, y que prosiguió analizando las marcas del neoliberalismo en América Latina. Se observa así el profundo conocimiento del tema a tratar que posee el autor francés para la escritura del libro, quien en esta ocasión profundiza sobre el modelo chileno post Allende. El autor, doctor en Ciencias Políticas por la Universidad París VIII, encuadra sus trabajos dentro del campo de estudios del marxismo, analizando los rasgos particulares del neoliberalismo chileno bajo esa óptica. El libro que aquí se presenta pertenece a la Colección Becas de Investigación de CLACSO (Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales), y fue publicado inicialmente bajo el título Las fisuras del neoliberalismo maduro chileno. Trabajo, “democracia protegida” y conflictos de clases durante el 2015.
“Chinas, guayaquises y jente que no es de armas”. Algunas consideraciones sobre el impacto social de la guerra en Montevideo y su Hinterland rural (1842-1845)
Authors: Etchechury Barrera Mario
Published: November 2020

El artículo analiza los desplazamientos masivos de la población civil rural durante los conflictos regionales rioplatenses de mediados del siglo XIX, y el modo en que esa intensa movilización formó parte central de la logística de la guerra. A partir de un abordaje de las operaciones militares llevadas a cabo en las áreas rurales del Estado Oriental por los ejércitos de operaciones al mando de Fructuoso Rivera, entre 1842 y 1845, el trabajo aborda las formas sociales que tomaron esas migraciones, deteniéndose de modo particular en la creación de contingentes civiles (convoyes), que acompañaron a los ejércitos en campaña, así como los procesos de reubicación de la población movilizada en Montevideo.

Se identifican un eje temático y un eje teórico-conceptual, para luego analizar el modo en el cual se escribió un texto en el cual se tocan la memoria y la historia. Finalmente, el ensayo propone que las memorias de Garavaglia invitan a la reflexión sobre el pasado reciente de Argentina.
Vasco de Quiroga antes del Nuevo Mundo: ¿qué sabemos de su vida en la península ibérica?
Authors: Alpe Ángeles
Published: November 2020

El presente trabajo se propone abrir nuevos interrogantes respecto de la vida de Vasco de Quiroga (1470?-1565), oidor de la Segunda Audiencia de México y Obispo de Michoacán, anterior a su llegada al continente americano. Mediante el análisis de documentos inéditos, de procedencia judicial, se procura aportar datos de índole relacional o geográfica que permiten cuestionar la genealogía construida o bien matizar aquello que los investigadores han conseguido poner de manifiesto sobre un período de por sí oscuro en la vida de este personaje, en otro sentido tan famoso por haber fundado en Nueva España los pueblos-hospitales para la protección de los indios.

The Big-Fish-Little-Pond Effect for Reading Self-Beliefs: A Cross-National Exploration With PISA 2018
Authors: Basarkod Geetanjali , Marsh Herb , Guo Jiesi , Dicke Theresa , Xu Kate M. , Parker Philip
Published: November 2020

Past research shows the Big-Fish-Little-Pond Effect (BFLPE; negative effect of school-average achievement on student-level self-concept) to generalize across countries. However, evidence is largely limited to math and science, limiting conclusions of universality to these subjects. Using data from Program for International Students Assessment 2018 (533,165 students, 72 countries), the present study is the first to examine and provide robust evidence for the cross-national generalizability of the BFLPE for the reading self-concept of high school students (perceived competence and difficulty subscales). Consistent with our social-comparison perspective, we also show that the BFLPE is strong when the frame-of-reference for comparison is relative rather than absolute; the effect of school-average achievement was robust for difficulty experienced with reading in general (self-concept of perceived difficulty), but very weak for difficulty experienced specifically during the PISA reading test (PISA test difficulty). Our findings extend support for the generalizability of the BFLPE to reading self-concept.

Published: November 2020

Gestational hypertension (GH) adverse effects on pregnancy and fetal development, but there are still a few non-pharmacological interventions that can control blood pressure. The study aimed to examine the impact of acumoxa therapy on reducing blood pressure among patients with GH. Thirty-four patients were admitted to three community health centers in Brebes Regency. They were selected and randomly divided into two groups, such as the experimental group and the control group. This study's participation was pregnant women randomly allocated to the experimental group (n= 17) and control group (n=17). The intervention group received acumoxa therapy. The control group received acupressure therapy at the same time of 5 minutes at each point in 3 sessions per week for four weeks. The points used between the intervention and control groups were almost the same. Acupoints HT 7 and LI11 are given acumoxa and acupressure. Point GV20 is only covered by pressure, and point KI3 is only moxibustion. Of the 34 women who completed the study, those who received acumoxa had significantly lower mean arterial pressure (MAP) (mean difference = 8 mmHg, p<0.05). Acumoxa therapy is an effective non-pharmacological method for reducing blood pressure in patients with gestational hypertension
