Emociones, acción y excusas = Emotions, action and excuses
Authors: Manrique María Laura
Published: March 2018

Resumen: En este trabajo ofreceré un breve análisis filosófico de algunos aspectos centrales de las emociones, las excusas y su impacto en responsabilidad penal. En primer lugar, reconstruiré brevemente la discusión filosófica acerca de las emociones. En segundo lugar, expondré algunas de las normas que los códigos penales recogen sobre este tema. Por último, el objetivo central de este trabajo es mostrar que los diferentes fundamentos que se han esgrimido para justificar las excusas penales se reflejan, a su vez, en diferentes maneras de entender las emociones. Por ello, sostendré que no hay un desacuerdo genuino entre las diferentes familias de teorías  que pretenden justificar las excusas y que ambas por si solas son insuficientes para dar cuenta de las excusas emocionales tal como las entendemos en nuestros sistemas jurídicos.Palabras clave: Responsabilidad penal, excusas emocionales.Abstract: In this paper I offer a philosophical analysis of some basic aspects of emotions, excuses and criminal responsibility. Firstly, I briefly discuss about emotions. Secondly, I outline some of the legal rules that our penal codes contain about emotions. Finally, the main issue of this paper is to show that the different grounds that have been used to justify criminal excuses are reflected, in turn, in the various ways of understanding emotions. For that reason, I argue that there is no genuine disagreement between the different families of theories that seek to justify excuses. In addition, these theories are insufficient to explain emotional excuses as we understand them in our legal systems.  Keywords: Criminal responsibility, emotional excuses.
La mediación en sociedades interculturales. Referencia a la posible actuación del Defensor del Pueblo en procesos de mediación = Mediation in intercultural societies. Possible Ombudsman’s action in mediation processes
Authors: Pérez-Ugena Coromina María
Published: March 2018

Resumen: El objeto de este trabajo es una reflexión acerca de los conflictos que surgen en sociedades interculturales como consecuencia de marcos más plurales, acompañada de una propuesta de cauces de solución. Nos planteamos la conveniencia de utilizar mecanismos extrajudiciales de resolución de conflictos, en particular la mediación, como medio especialmente adecuado para este tipo de controversias. La integración en sociedades plurales exige un esfuerzo y toma de postura por el Estado. Los poderes públicos deben implicarse en lograr un mayor grado de convivencia democrática, incidiendo en el aspecto real y no formal de la libertad y la igualdad, de manera coherente con la concepción social del Estado. El Defensor del Pueblo es una figura idónea para poder actuar como mediador en conflictos propios de la interculturalidad. Su contacto con los problemas sociales, de una parte, y su posición neutral, basada en la auctoritas, de otra, le atribuyen unas características muy interesantes para que pueda ejercer esta función. Asumiría así el Estado este papel a través de la institución que resulta más cercana a la ciudadanía. Esto, a su vez, podría revertir en una mejora de la percepción social del Defensor del Pueblo.Palabras clave: Interculturalismo, mediación, Defensor del Pueblo.Abstract: The purpose of this work is a reflection on the conflicts that arise in intercultural societies as a consequence of more plural frameworks, accompanied by a proposal of channels of solution. We consider the convenience of using extrajudicial mechanisms for resolving conflicts, particularly mediation, as a particularly appropriate means for this type of dispute. The integration in plural societies requires an effort and takes position by the State. The public authorities must be involved in achieving a greater degree of democratic coexistence, focusing on the real and non-formal aspect of freedom and equality, in a manner consistent with the social conception of the State. The Ombudsman is an ideal figure to be able to act as mediator in conflicts of interculturality. His contact with social problems, on the one hand, and his neutral position, based on the auctoritas, on the other, attribute him some very interesting characteristics so that he can exercise this function. The State would assume this role through the institution that is closest to citizenship. This, in turn, could lead to an improvement in the social perception of the Ombudsman.Keywords: Interculturalism, mediation, Ombudsman.

On the Photos of "The Space of Boredom" – and What Might Be Missing from the Picture
Authors: Cârlan Alexandru
Published: March 2018

Photography has been, from its early stages, a powerful tool for the anthropologist, both as a mechanical technique to record data and as a heuristic tool used to reflect on the anthropologist’s approach as such. At the same time, its iconicity and indexicality have allowed for a different epistemic regime, an allegedly privileged connection to “the facts” or “the truth”, in opposition to the written notes of the anthropologist, vulnerable to subjectivity, bias or error. A substantial direction in visual culture studies questions the articulation of image and text, and acknowledges a power relation between the two, as if despite its iconicity and indexicality, photography needs taming by the text that clarifies its meaning and incorporates it in bigger narratives. It is in this context that W. J. T. Mitchell echoes the famous question “Can the subaltern speak?” in relation to photography, asking “What do pictures want?” (Mitchell, 2005, pp. 28-30). It is within this vision of photography as a potential site of resistance to the narrative in which they are embedded that I will try to raise some critical points about Bruce O’Neill’s book, The Space of Boredom, by focusing on the photos included in this book.
Being an E-Teacher: Preparing the ESL Teacher to Teach English with Technology
Authors: Anas Ismail , Musdariah Andi
Published: March 2018

In response to the extensive use of technology in the field of education particularly in English language teaching (ELT) context, both the pre-service and in-service ESL teachers are expected to use ICT tools in their teaching and learning environment. It is important to have a closer look at the use of ICT tools and the ease of access to the internet to see the opportunities to harness the technology resources for effective blended learning. Recently, although many studies revealed merely to promote the student’s self-directed learning and the successful of CALL, it is the teacher as a key role to blend such technologies into an effective teaching strategy. This study strives to develop a conceptual framework for teaching English with technology.  The framework delineates six perennial aspects of e-teacher development; they are; (1) teacher technology competency, (2) professional use of ICT tools, (3) professional use of the Internet, (4) web-based technology skills, (5) ESL teacher’s digital literacy, and (6) ESL materials and resources development.  This concept will bring many contributions to the way ESL teacher exploit the technology resources for an adaptive and interactive teaching strategy.  This paper also provides the implications for the practice, teacher, and student
Holacracy and Obliquity: contingency management approaches in organizing companies
Authors: Velinov Emil , Vassilev Vasko , Denisov Igor
Published: March 2018

The paper aims to examine the development of modern innovative management methods and practices such as Holacracy, Obliquity, Adhocracy and Sociocracy, which are novelty in the Management science and practice. The study illustrates contingency approaches in designing, managing and developing agile companies from wide varieties of industries. The paper sheds light on contemporary methods in organizing, planning and setting goals of companies in a post-knowledge era. It is like an operating system for business that requires the installation of different applications as applications for hiring employees, for setting salaries, for planning or logistics. In the paper, literature review on management innovations is conducted and subsequently statistical operationalization through STATA software has been employed to examine how particular organizations design and set up their organizational structures such as lean, agile or scrum. Paper results show that smaller companies are more agile and they tend to acquire Holacratic Management models thanks to the fact that self-managing teams exist internally and their organizational structures are flatter and more adaptive in comparison to the multinational corporations. Consequently, the paper concludes with suggestions on innovative management implementations for future development of companies and emphasizes the need for further research on what is the impact of Holacracy and Obliquity on shaping the organizational culture of companies.
The impact of pro-poor interventions on the performance indicators of a water utility: case studies of Nakuru and Kisumu
Authors: Kemendi T. J. , Tutusaus M.
Published: March 2018

Water utilities have been confronted with the conflicting mandates of expanding services to all, including low income areas (LIAs), while attaining and preserving financial sustainability. In the pursuit of striking the balance between these two, often conflicting mandates, the expansion of services in LIAs has been lagging behind. Typically, the expansion of services to these areas is associated with low collection rates, vandalism of infrastructure or unorderly urbanization. Using the case of two pro-poor units in Nakuru and Kisumu, Kenya, this research analyses the impact of these interventions in the operational performance of the utility. The utilities have been able to increase coverage while reducing non-revenue water (NRW) and improving collection efficiency. We realize, as others have earlier indicated, that these achievements are reached as the utility has opted for a differentiated level of service that prevents dwellers of LIAs accessing higher levels of services such as household connections. These interventions should not be seen as an end-state of water service provision in these areas. However, these pro-poor units seem a valid strategy for the utility to fulfil these mandates for the time being.
Combining classifiers to detect faults in wastewater networks
Authors: Myrans Joshua , Kapelan Zoran , Everson Richard
Published: March 2018

This work presents a methodology for automatic detection of structural faults in sewers from CCTV footage, which has been improved by combining the outputs of different machine learning techniques. The predictions of support vector machine and random forest classifiers are combined using three distinct techniques: ‘both’, ‘most likely’ and ‘stacking’. Each technique is tested on CCTV data taken from real surveys covering a range of pipes at locations in the south-west of the UK. The best tested technique, stacking, offers a 5% increase in accuracy for minimal impact in efficiency, proving useful for future development and implementation of the fault detection methodology.
The application of an efficient modified decolorizer in coagulation treatment of high color reclaimed water
Authors: Wang Mengqi , Tian Yimei , Zhao Xin , Li Xiang
Published: March 2018

High color concentrations in inflows at reclaimed water treatment plants are typically considered as emergency situations, which must be solved using an appropriate decolorizing process. Using the decoloration mechanism of a modified dicyandiamide-formaldehyde polymer (DFP), a urea-formaldehyde polymer and a melamine-formaldehyde polymer (MFP) were prepared with ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfate as the modifiers. An orthogonal experiment indicated that a modified urea-formaldehyde polymer had no effect on decolorization; however, the MFP modified by ammonium chloride in number 16 (MMFP-C16), the DFP modified by ammonium chloride in number 9 (MDFP-C9) and modified by ammonium sulfate in number 6 (MDFP-S6) were successful. The removal rates were above 50% in acidic and reactive dye reclaimed water. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to microscopically analyze the differences in decolorization effect among the polymers. The effect of pH on decolorization was analyzed. Compared to the MDFP-C9 and MDFP-S6, the MMFP-C16 was not sensitive to changes in conditions. The pilot plant test proved that the three optimal decolorizers also had a good decolorizing effect, and MMFP-C16 was better both at decolorizing and floc sedimentation. Thus, the latter can be considered as an efficient modified decolorizer for rapid treatment of high color reclaimed water.

AbstractWe study Tamm plasmon structure based on GaAs/Al_0.95GaAs distributed Bragg reflector covered by thin silver layer, with active area formed by InAs quantum dots. We have measured the spectral and angular characteristics of photoluminescence and performed theoretical calculation of the spontaneous emission rate (modal Purcell factor) in the structure by using S-quantization formalism. We show that for Tamm plasmon mode the spontaneous emission can be enhanced by more than an order of magnitude, despite absorption in metallic layer.

Published: March 2018

AbstractThe optical reflection in periodic structures based on a semiconductor AlGaAs matrix containing two-dimensional arrays of plasmonic AsSb nanoinclusions was studied. The number of periods was 12 or 24. The spatial period was near 110 nm in both cases. In the experimental optical reflection spectra at normal incidence we observed resonant Bragg diffraction with the main peaks at wavelengths of 757 or 775 nm, depending on the spatial period of the nanostructure. The magnitudes of the resonance peaks reached 19 and 31% for the systems of 12 and 24 AsSb–AlGaAs layers, while the volume fraction of the nanoinclusions was much less than 1%. In the case of light incident at inclined angles, the Bragg-diffraction pattern shifted according to Wulff-Bragg’s law. Numerical calculations of the optical reflection spectra were performed using the transfer-matrix method by taking into account the spatial geometry of the structures and the resonance characteristics of the plasmonic AsSb layers.
Floquet engineering of gapped 2D materials
Authors: Kibis O.V. , Dini K. , Iorsh I.V. , Shelykh I.A.
Published: March 2018

AbstractIt is demonstrated theoretically that the interaction of gapped 2D materials (gapped graphene and transition metal dichalchogenide monolayers) with a strong high-frequency electromagnetic field (dressing field) crucially changes the band structure of the materials. As a consequence, the renormalized band structure of the materials drastically depends on the field polarization. Particularly, a linearly polarized dressing field always decreases band gaps, whereas a circularly polarized field breaks the equivalence of band valleys in different points of the Brillouin zone and can both increase and decrease corresponding band gaps. It is shown also that a dressing field can turn both the band gaps and the spin splitting of the bands into zero. As a result, the dressing field can serve as an effective tool to control spin and valley properties of the materials in various optoelectronic applications.
Electronic states and persistent currents in nanowire quantum ring
Authors: Kokurin I.A.
Published: March 2018

AbstractA new model of a quantum ring defined inside a nanowire is proposed. The one-particle Hamiltonian for electron in [111]-oriented nanowire quantum ring is constructed taking into account both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. The energy levels as a function of magnetic field are found using the exact numerical diagonalization. The persistent currents (both charge and spin) are calculated. The specificity of spin-orbit coupling and arising anticrossings in energy spectrum lead to unusual features in persistent current behavior. The variation of magnetic field or carrier concentration by means of gates can lead to pure spin persistent current with the charge current being zero.
Impact of UV pulsed laser radiation and of the electron flow on dielectric states of polymer composite nanomaterial based on LDPE matrix
Authors: Ushakov N.M. , Kosobudskii I.D.
Published: March 2018

AbstractThe influence of the soft electron flow and irradiating pulsed UV laser on dielectric states of polymer composite nanomaterial based on LDPE matrix is experimentally studied. It was shown that irradiation of the samples LDPE–ZnO by electron beam (10 keV) for 10–15 minutes gives rise the appearance of the horizontal portion of the temperature dependence of capacitance (permittivity) and to memory effect (slow relaxation of dielectric situation within a few days). Irradiation with pulsed UV laser of the LDPE–CdS sample allows you to switch into a conducting state and return it to their original state upon application of a weak electric field. The observed phenomena may find practical applications for the polymer electronic memories and switching devices.
Закон дисперсии экситон-поляритонов в условиях действия сильной накачки в области M-полосы люминесценции
Authors: Хаджи П.И. , Надькин Л.Ю. , Марков Д.А.
Published: March 2018

AbstractThe double-pulse interaction with excitons and biexcitons in semiconductors is studied theoretically. It is shown that the dispersion law of carrier wave has three branches under the action of a powerful pumping in the region of the M -band of luminescence. Values of parameters at which the dispersion law branches can intersect due to the degeneration of the exciton level energy have been found. The effect of a significant change in the force of coupling between the exciton and photon of a weak pulse with a change in the pumping intensity is predicted.

Total Knee Replacement and the Effect of Technology on Cocreation for Improved Outcomes and Delivery: Qualitative Multi-Stakeholder Study (Preprint)
Authors: van Kasteren Yasmin , Freyne Jill , Hussain M Sazzad
Published: March 2018

BACKGROUND

The growth in patient-centered care delivery combined with the rising costs of health care have perhaps not unsurprisingly been matched by a proliferation of patient-centered technology. This paper takes a multistakeholder approach to explore how digital technology can support the cocreation of value between patients and their care teams in the delivery of total knee replacement (TKR) surgery, an increasingly common procedure to return mobility and relieve pain for people suffering from osteoarthritis.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study was to investigate communications and interactions between patients and care teams in the delivery of TKR to identify opportunities for digital technology to add value to TKR health care service by enhancing the cocreation of value.

METHODS

A multistakeholder qualitative study of user needs was conducted with Australian stakeholders (N=34): surgeons (n=12), physiotherapists (n=3), patients (n=11), and general practitioners (n=8). Data from focus groups and interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using thematic analysis.

RESULTS

Encounters between patients and their care teams are information-rich but time-poor. Results showed seven different stages of the TKR journey that starts with referral to a surgeon and ends with a postoperative review at 12 months. Each stage of the journey has different information and communication challenges that can be enhanced by digital technology. Opportunities for digital technology include improved waiting list management, supporting and reinforcing patient retention and recall of information, motivating and supporting rehabilitation, improving patient preparation for hospital stay, and reducing risks and anxiety associated with postoperative wound care.

CONCLUSIONS

Digital technology can add value to patients’ care team communications by enhancing information flow, assisting patient recall and retention of information, improving accessibility and portability of information, tailoring information to individual needs, and by providing patients with tools to engage in their own health care management. For care teams, digital technology can add value through early detection of postoperative complications, proactive surveillance of health data for postoperative patients and patients on waiting lists, higher compliance with rehabilitation programs, and reduced length of stay. Digital technology has the potential to improve patient satisfaction and outcomes, as well as potentially reduce hospital length of stay and the burden of disease associated with postoperative morbidity.

Corporate social responsibility, social and financial performance: The case study of the loan appraisal process of the Rwanda Development Bank
Authors: Vento Gianfranco A. , Chiappini Helen , Lia Giuseppe
Published: March 2018

Development banks play an active role in smoothing growth of world’s disadvantaged areas. The social mission of development banks requires that they pay attention to corporate social responsibility (CSR) and to the social outcome of financing activities. However, like any other financial institution, they must consider the business sustainability and the financial stability over time. Thus, a comprehensive loan appraisal process should include financial and social aspects. Literature does not properly investigate development banks loan appraisal process, thus the aim of this paper is to contribute to this stream of literature, analysing how development banks can include the evaluation of social and environmental variables within their loan appraisal process. For the purpose of the research, we employed a case study of the Rwanda Development Bank (BRD). The BRD loan appraisal process combines the evaluation of typical aspects of corporate social responsibility – like the firms or projects compliance to health and safety regulations or the implementation of the code of ethics including diversity policies – with the evaluation of social and environmental impact, as well with financial aspects. The BRD social impact assessment is also valuable because it follows the criteria of proportionality of loans evaluation, balancing completeness of information with the cost of the assessment.

Dignidade e finitude
Authors: Chemin Marcia Regina Chizini , Souza Waldir
Published: March 2018

Ainda que a tecnologia tenha proporcionado inúmeras mudanças positivas à vida, também trouxe à tona questões delicadas que implicam ao homem pensar a própria morte. Ainda que inevitável e inexorável, a morte, passou a ser processo e pode sofrer intervenções que por sua vez podem prolongar inutilmente o sofrimento do paciente e de sua família. A nova realidade exige uma ressignificação das bases tradicionais e conclama a buscar nos valores espirituais uma luz. O objetivo é repetir sobre a dignidade e a autonomia do indivíduo, a possibilidade de manifestar antecipadamente vontade sobre os tratamentos em final de vida. O método utilizado foi a pesquisa bibliográfica com breve análise das Escrituras e dos ensinamentos do Magistério da Igreja Católica, e bibliografia com enfoque bioético. Pôde-se concluir que embora frente à morte não se tenha liberdade, pode-se respeitar a autonomia do paciente, a fim que a sua terminalidade possa ocorrer de forma mais humana, digna e respeitosa.
Ecumenismo e diálogo inter-religioso em perspectiva bíblica
Authors: Fernandes Leonardo Agostini
Published: March 2018

Este artigo aborda o tema do ecumenismo e do diálogo inter-religioso a partir de exemplos bíblicos que podem ajudar na promoção da unidade entre os fiéis cristãos e do respeito pela fé dos não cristãos. Não se fará, porém, uma abordagem sobre a história do ecumenismo e do diálogo inter-religioso. Sobre isso já existem várias obras publicadas, em particular nesse ano em que se faz memória dos quinhentos anos da Reforma. A reflexão será desenvolvida a partir de três pontos. No primeiro, serão apresentadas breves considerações quanto ao sentido, à compreensão e ao alcance dos conceitos ecumenismo e diálogo inter-religioso. No segundo, serão tomados dois exemplos do Antigo Testamento, considerando as principais formas de religião vividas pelo antigo Israel (jahwismo e judaísmo) e as relações-tensões internas e externas. No terceiro, serão tomados dois exemplos do Novo Testamento, considerando as formas de cristianismo primitivo e as relações-tensões internas e externas. Introdução e considerações finais emolduram o desenvolvimento.
Inteligência senciente e liturgia
Authors: Costa Valeriano Dos Santos
Published: March 2018

Muitas vezes se constata que certas celebrações litúrgicas pendem para o sentimentalismo ou para o racionalismo. Isso revela um grave problema, que é reflexo da ruptura entre o sentir e o inteligir, como se fossem duas faculdades numericamente distintas. A retificação desta distorção vem com a inteligência senciente, de Xavier Zubiri, que revolucionou a epistemologia atual, mostrando que a separação entre sentir e inteligir constitui um erro grave, pois “inteligir é um modo de sentir, e sentir é, no homem, um modo de inteligir”. A inteligência senciente trouxe uma luz para a liturgia, na medida em que a unidade entre sentir e inteligir em todas as modalidades da apreensão da realidade (apreensão primordial, logos e razão) exigem a inteireza tanto celebração como no aprofundamento da fé.

إنَّ تعليم اللسان العربي للأجانب يستلزم تطوير المناهج الـمُعدة لذلك، وهذا من الأهمية بمكان إذْ تُعد القطب الذي تدور حوله الرحى، ذلك لأنَّ سلامتها يعني نجاحها؛ فيُفضي بالضرورة إلى نجاح العملية التعليمية برمتها إذا وجدنا من يتبعها بحذافيرها من أهل المهارات والكفايات المهنية وأقصد (المعلمين) زائداً استعدادات الطلبة لتلّقي تلك المناهج، ومما يشار إليه في هذا المجال سلامة منهجية كتاب "العربية بين يديك" حسن السمعة الذي بسببه يؤم الطلبةُ الجامعاتِ التي تُدَرس هذا الكتاب، وتواجه اللغة العربية جملة من التحديات، وأخطرها التحديات الخارجية، وهي كثيرة في زمن العولمة التي تسعى إلى القضاء على التنوع اللساني في العالم. ولهذا السبب جاءتْ هذه الدراسة لتسلط الضوء على إشكالية تطوير مناهج تعليم اللسان العربي للأجانب والمتمثلة بضعف مستوى المناهج من جهة وقلة المعلمين الماهرين من جهة أُخرى، ومن نتائج الدراسة أنَّ الحلول تكمن بتقوية مناهج التعليم من خلال التركيز على المحتوى الثقافي للغة العربية وفي مقدمة ذلك القرآن الكريم لأنه يعد عاملاً أساسياً من عوامل نجاح المنهجيات لما له من دور في حياة المسلمين من غير العرب الذين يرومون تعلُّم اللسان العربي من أجل الدين الإسلامي وكتابه المجيد. ويتبع الباحث المنهج التحليلي والنقدي في هذه الدراسة التي انتظمت بثلاث مباحث مسبوقة بمقدمة تمهيدية ذكرتُ فيها المنطلق الفكري وما يستلزمه من إبراز الأهمية والأهداف وختمت بتعقيب ضم المقترحات والتوصيات مع قائمة بمصادر الدراسة
