Authors: Yuvaraj T , Manikanta KS , Monisha G , Hassan Mir Md Noorul
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Cholelithiasis is a common ailment and affects about 10% of general population. Currently, the vast majority of operations for cholelithiasis are performed using laparoscopic techniques. Aim: To compare the three-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy with conventional four-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Materials and Methods: A prospective interventional study was conducted on 180 cases admitted to the hospitals attached to BMCRI, Bengaluru, from November 2018 to November 2020. The clinical profile of each patient was noted. The cases were confirmed by ultrasonography and they were randomised into two groups. One group underwent three-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy and the other group underwent four-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Intraoperative complications, conversion rates, postoperative pain, postoperative complications and duration of stay in the hospital were compared. Statistical data was analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0 and data was compared using Chi-square test. Results: Most of the participants were from 31-40 years (45.6%, 44.4%) in both the groups, more common in females. The mean duration of surgery in three-port and four-port group was 30.43±15.964 and 36.81±15.592 minutes, respectively. Out of 90 (100%), 56 (62.2%) in three-port group had Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score 2 and 66 (73.3%) in four-port group had VAS score 3 (χ2=71.34; p=0.001). Conversion rates to open cholecystectomy were almost similar in both the groups. Hospital stay was also similar in both groups. Conclusion: A three-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy had lesser operating time and lesser analgesics requirement with similar intra and postoperative complication when compared to four-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Introduction: Anorectal Malformations (ARMs) are the second most common paediatric surgical emergencies with management strategy is restoration of near normal anatomy and physiology which require accurate and proper imaging diagnosis. Aim: To evaluate Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) findings and its comparison with Distal Colostogram (DC) against surgical findings in anorectal malformation patients. Materials and Methods: A cohort study was done at two centers Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Aligarh (JNMC, Aligarh) and Vardhman Mahavir Medical College (VMMC) and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi involving 60 patients of ARMs. MRI was done in all patients and distal colostogram was done in 46 (74.4%) patients. All patients were evaluated for associated anomalies. Both the imaging modalities were compared for the type of ARM and fistula against the surgical findings and Chi-square and Fisher’s test were used to calculate statistical significance. Results: Out of total 60 patients included in this study, there were 37 (61.7%) males and 23 females (38.3%). High ARM was seen in 34 (56.7%) patients and low ARM was seen in 26 (43.3%). There was no significant difference between distal colostogram and MRI in differentiating the type of ARM (p-value 0.13). Spinal anomalies (52.5%) were the most common associated anomalies, followed by genitourinary (47.5%) and musculoskeletal (32.5%). Conclusion: From the results of present study no significant difference was found between DC and MRI findings regarding the type of ARM.

Published: August 2022

Introduction: Insertion and maintenance of Central Venous Catheters (CVC) are integral components for the supportive care of critically ill neonates. Their use is often associated with the unavoidable risk of acquiring Healthcare Associated Infections (HAI) like Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infections (CLABSI) especially in resource limited public sector Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU). Adopting a care bundle approach to decrease CLABSI rates in such NICUs still remains a challenge. Aim: To determine the baseline CLABSI rate, identify the risk factors associated with it and also to determine the effectiveness of care bundle approach in decreasing CLABSI. Materials and Methods: An analytical prospective cohort study was conducted in Cheluvamba Hospital, attached to Mysore Medical College and Research Institute, Mysuru, Karnataka, India, from June 2018 to June 2020. In the preintervention phase (June 2018 to May 2019), the data of 307 neonates in whom Central Line (CL) was inserted were analysed to determine the baseline CLABSI rate and risk factors. CLABSI bundle involves a group of evidence-based practices which when implemented reliably and consistently have shown to significantly reduce CLABSI rates. CLABSI bundle was implemented in June 2019 and in the postintervention phase (July 2019 to June 2020), the data of 283 neonates were analysed and compared to those in the preintervention group in order to assess the effectiveness of the care bundle approach. Chi-square test was used to compare categorical variables whereas a two sample t-test was used to compare continuous variables. Results: A total of 41 CLABSI episodes were documented in the preintervention phase (Group 1) as compared to 12 in the postintervention phase (Group 2). Mean birth weight and gestational age was significantly lower in neonates with CLABSI as compared to neonates without CLABSI in both the groups. The incidence of CLABSI was significantly higher in neonates with a catheter dwell time of more than eight days and in those who received Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN). Implementation of the CLABSI bundle resulted in the reduction of the baseline CLABSI rate from 16.25 to 8.3/1000 CL days; a significant reduction in the catheter dwell time and duration of NICU stay was also noted in group 2. Duration of NICU stay and death rate among neonates who developed CLABSI did not differ significantly between both the groups. Conclusion: Despite incorporating the care bundle approach, CLABSI rate remained to be high. Very preterm neonates with birth weight of <1500 grams and NICU stay of more than 25 days were more likely to develop CLABSI. Significant reduction in CLABSI rates can be achieved with widespread implementation of the CLABSI bundle in resource limited NICUs across India.

Authors: Mandala Vinodkumar , Gangadhari Siddhartha , Thummakomma Muralikrishna , Kotha Rakesh
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Exclusive breastfeeding practices for six months and its continuity, including supplementary foods, is recommended to the child for a particular duration. In addition, antenatal counselling on early breastfeeding practices ensures optimum nutrition for the neonates, thereby reducing mortality. Aim: To evaluate the positive effects of antenatal counselling on breastfeeding outcomes in primigravida women. Materials and Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted over 18 months on the mothers who attended the Obstetrics Department at Niloufer Hospital in Hyderabad, India. Participants were allocated either to a study group (n=100) (volunteered for antenatal counselling) or a control group (n=100) (did not volunteer for antenatal counselling). The study group received 1-3 breastfeeding counselling sessions during different months of gestation, whereas the control group merely received routine antenatal counselling. A breastfeeding performance checklist was finished, and the outcome of the counselling sessions was observed among the subjects. The procured data was analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 22.0 for the t-test, odds ratio and Chi- square values, p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: This study monitored the breastfeeding practice of mothers in the first 48 hours and defined corrective timely breastfeeding practice for the following infantile period based on their reflexively formed habits under the impact of counselling improving awareness. Statistically, significant difference was observed in the counselled group concerning duration of breastfeeding, importance, and the benefits of breastfeeding to the mothers and families when compared to the control group (p<0.0001**). In addition, the questionnaire and the breastfeeding assessment scores were statistically significant in the counselled group compared to the control group (p<0.001** and p=0.002*, respectively). Conclusion: The statistically significant results of the study showed that antenatal counselling during pregnancy increases the frequency and duration of exclusive breastfeeding in mothers. Various aspects of counselling sessions on breastfeeding practices cleared the myths and misconceptions that mothers previously had in this study.

Published: August 2022

Introduction: Awake Fiberoptic Intubation (AFOI) is considered as the gold standard technique in patients with predicted and unpredicted difficult airway. It is best performed with the patient awake to maintain spontaneous ventilation. Dexmedetomidine has been successful in several clinical settings including AFOI due to its diverse actions like sedation, analgesia, anxiolysis, cardiovascular stabilising effect and preservation of respiratory function. Aim: To assess the efficacy of using dexmedetomidine intranasally with lidocaine in AFOI in comparison to using lidocaine alone in terms of haemodynamic stability, sedation, ease of intubation, patient’s satisfaction with the procedure and reduction in intraoperative propofol requirement. Materials and Methods: This randomised clinical study was conducted on 100 patients of either gender aged between 18-60 years with ASA physical status I or II scheduled for elective surgeries under general anaesthesia at Government Medical College and Rajindra Hospital, Patiala, India from February 2021 to November 2021. The patients were randomly divided into two groups of 50 each namely Group D (intranasal dexmedetomidine 2 mcg/kg + lidocaine 10%) and Group L (intranasal lidocaine 10% alone). Maximum dose of 10% Lidocaine was <5 mg/kg body weight in both groups. The various parameters were recorded in both the groups during AFOI and the data was analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 22.0 and Microsoft excel. Descriptive statistics was done for all data and were reported in terms of mean, standard deviation and percentages. Results: Among 100 patients, group D and group L comprises of 50 each. The mean heart rate during AFOI was 70.16±8.02 in Group D, and 95.62±11.04, in Group L. The Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) during AFOI was 81.42±5.55 in group D and 101.78±6.22, in group L. There was statistically highly significant (p-value <0.001) decrease in mean heart rate and MAP (within normal clinical range) in group D as compared to group L. The mean Ramsay Sedation Scale (RSS) in group D was 3.66 ± 0.48 and in group L was 2.32±0.55 (p-value <0.001). There was a significant difference (p-value <0.001) in patient tolerance, time to intubation, propofol requirement, patient satisfaction and anaesthesiologist satisfaction between the two groups. There was no significant decrease in Saturation of Peripheral Oxygen (SpO2 ) or respiratory depression in both groups (p-value=0.221). Conclusion: Intranasal dexmedetomidine with lidocaine provides better haemodynamic stability and improves the quality of intubation, reduces propofol requirement, provides good patient and anaesthesiologist satisfaction and maintains oxygen saturation during AFOI.

Association of Two Unknown Pythium spp. without Forming Sexual Structures on Root Rot of Hydroponically Grown Welsh onion
Authors: Shimizu S. , Tojo M.
Published: August 2022

Aims: Aim of this study was to elucidate association of Pythium isolates without forming sexual structures on root rot of hydroponically grown Welsh onion, as well as to clarify their taxonomic positions.

Place and Duration of Study: Commercial hydroponic greenhouses in Hiroshima Prefecture, Hiroshima Prefectural Technology Research Institute, and Osaka Metropolitan University, between March 2020 and March 2021.

Methodology: Total 2,966 isolates of Pythium-like organs were isolated from the plant roots during the survey period. All the isolates didn’t form any sexual organs, and were separated into three groups based on colony patterns on agar media such as cornmeal agar. Among of them, 236 isolates were equally selected from each three groups. Since two of the three groups were thought to be first records on Welsh onion, 17 representative isolates from the two groups were examined on morphology, hyphal growth response to temperatures and sequences of the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and mitochondrial COI. Inoculation tests were performed on Welsh onion seedlings under a hydroponic condition by using one representative isolate from each group.

Results: The three groups were identified as Pythium Cluster B2a sp., B1d sp. and Clade A sp. on sequences of ITS and COI, respectively. Pythium isolates belonged to Pythium Cluster B1d and Clade A showed similar morphology and hyphal growth response to temperatures each other. Inoculation tests confirmed that both representative isolates from two groups cause roots rot of hydroponically grown Welsh onion 14 days after their inoculation. Pythium Cluster B1d showed stronger pathogenicity than Pythium Clade A.

Conclusion: The present study firstly demonstrated that Pythium Cluster B1d sp. and Clade A sp. which don’t form any sexual structures associate root rot of hydroponically grown Welsh onion.

Published: August 2022

Studies on genetic diversity of crops are crucial for germplasm conservation and crop improvement programmes. Arecanut (Areca catechu L.) is one of the plantation crops that have been in cultivation since time immemorial in tropical regions of the world. In this investigation, molecular characterization and genetic diversity analysis was carried out among 20 arecanut genotypes comprising of 16 cultivated types (including 13 cultivated varieties, two dwarf hybrids and a natural mutant), two wild species (Areca triandra and Areca concinna) and two other genera (Normanbya normanbyii and Actinorhytis calapparia), maintained in the National Arecanut Gene Bank, Vittal, Karnataka State, India, by employing eight simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. A total of 45 alleles were detected with most of the markers revealing five alleles or more. The number of alleles at each locus varied from 3 (AC07 and AC08) to 8 (AC23) with a mean of 5.62 alleles per locus. The polymorphism information content (PIC) value, which is a measure of polymorphism for a marker locus, varied from 0.46 (AC08) to 0.84 (AC01) among the SSR markers loci, the average being 0.70. The effective number of alleles per locus (Ne) ranged from 1.28 to 3.11 with a mean of 2.31. The marker AC07 had the lowest effective number of alleles per locus and the marker AC29 had the highest numbers of effective alleles. Shannon’s Information Index ranged from 0.43 (AC07) to 1.33 (AC23) with a mean of 0.97. The observed heterozygosity (Ho) values ranged from 0.25 to 1.00 with an average of 0.73. The expected heterozygosity (He) values ranged from 0.22 to 0.69 with an average of 0.54. The degree of genetic differentiation among the subpopulations (FST) ranged from 0.11 (AC06) to 0.66 (AC01) with a mean of 0.32. The gene flow (Nm) values ranged from 0.12 (AC01) to 1.96 (AC06) with a mean gene flow value of 0.52. The lowest gene flow value was observed in the marker AC01 and the highest gene flow was exhibited by AC06. The dendrogram constructed using similarity coefficient values, by following the Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA), formed two major clusters with cluster I consisting of all the 16 cultivated varieties and 2 wild species, viz., Areca triandra and Areca concinna and the second major cluster comprised of related genera viz., Normanbya normanbyii and Actinorhytis calapparia. The highest genetic similarity was observed between the cultivated varieties, Kahikuchi and Mohitnagar and Nalbari and Sumangala, and the lowest similarity value of 0.33 was found between the related genera, Normanbya normanbyii, and the cultivated variety, Sreemangala.

Social media has shown to be a medium for the exchange of information, conducting commerce, and even for religious and political activity. The same site has been used to disseminate cyberbullying and hate speech. Cyberbullying is an offense when a perpetrator targets a victim with online provocation and resentment, which has negative impacts on the victim's emotions, relationships, and physical health. These spew forth a lot of hate speech directed at those who have different beliefs or hold different opinions. In order to overcome these problems, this research creates a deeper neural network and maximum entropy-based model for the identification of cyberbullying. In comparison to the present systems, Convolution Neural Network is used for the superior results. The dataset gathered includes 24,783 records tweets with the categories "bullying language," "non-bullying language," and "neither" are included. According to geopolitical zones, tweets are categorized in the study. Throughout the experiment, the dataset was trained and evaluated. The model's unigram performed with 96.3 percent accuracy, the bigram model with 93.8 percent accuracy, the trigram with 88.2 percent accuracy, and the n-gram enhanced performance with 94.2 percent. The two baseline classifiers for the tweets dataset were TF-IDF (Term Frequency Inverse Document Frequency) and the characteristics of unigram, bigram, trigram, and n-grams for detection. The outcome of the model during the tweet cyberbullying will increase the memory accuracy of the bullying. The study's findings will reveal creative language and alternative spellings for cyberbullying in tweets.

Published: August 2022

This article presents the narrative about the importance of vaccines in public health to highlight the scientific development required and involved for their production, and their importance for health by exploring events that denote scientific development and unfounded opposition towards the immunization of the population against vaccine-preventable diseases. The corresponding literature review was carried out in online databases using the keywords: vaccines, scientific development, and denial of vaccination, vaccination, and anti-vaccines. 

Furthermore, it was found that vaccines, toxoids, and biologicals to prevent contagion or serious forms of infectious disease, whether by viruses or bacteria, are more understood than a century ago. Vaccination aroused along health policies and is recognized as one of the most cost-effective practices on the planet. Although constantly and coupled with the development and implementation of vaccination schemes, some social groups appear to oppose this practice. Being anti-vaccination is often associated to fear, religious beliefs, ignorance, and more frequently, a lack of social awareness of the responsibility to immunize minors and vulnerable groups, especially those with risk factors or co morbidities, including the current pandemic catastrophe due to covid-19. Not getting vaccinated due to the circulation of unreliable information, without scientific bases, puts the human population at risk and is often common among individuals with vulnerabilities in academic and socioeconomic sectors such as poverty, and other types of vaccine-related beliefs.

Authors: Chizoba Eze Gloria , Obeagu Emmanuel Ifeanyi , Chime Amalachukwu Amanda
Published: August 2022

Background: Primary Open Angle Glaucoma has been noted to be more prevalent and aggressive in blacks. Treatment of glaucoma involves lowering of intraocular pressure (IOP) to a targeted level where further glaucomatous damage is unlikely. The aim of this study was to determine sociodemographic factors and clinical history among primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients on medical treatment at the glaucoma clinic of Enugu State University of Science and Technology Teaching Hospital Parklane (ESUTTHP), Enugu with a view for better patient management.

Methods: The study was a hospital based cross sectional study on POAG patients on medical treatment attending the eye clinic of ESUTTHP, Enugu. Patients were selected by simple random sampling. Their socio-demographics and clinical history were obtained using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 20 (U.S.A). Categorical variables were presented in percentages.

Results: A total of 130 POAG patients on medical treatment were interviewed comprising of 56 males (43.1%) and 74 females (56.9%). Their age ranged between 42 and 83 years with mean age of 62.25 ± 9.002. Civil servants made up of 27.7% of the patients while 26.9% were traders, 16.2% were farmers and 9.2% were artisans. One hundred patients were on prostaglandin analogues, 90 patients were on beta blockers, 31 patients were on topical carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, 20 patients were on alpha agonist while 2 patients were on miotics. These drugs were used either singly or in combination. Ninety-five of the patients (72.1%) reported they were using their drugs regularly while 35 (26.9%) reported they were not using their drugs regularly. Out of those that do not use their drugs regularly, 62.9% reported that it was due to forgetfulness, 40.0% reported that it was due to limited finances and none of the patients reported that it was due to the side effects of the drug. Approximately, 66.2% of the patients had used drugs for 1 - 5 years with the mean duration of treatment being 4.5±3.36 years. About half (57.7%) of the patients did not have family history of glaucoma, 30% of the patients had family history of glaucoma while 17.3% were not sure of any family history of glaucoma).

Conclusion: The study revealed that greater number of the patients suffering from glaucoma were women and civil servants. Majority of the patients use their drugs regularly and higher number of the patients do not have family history of glaucoma. Women, civil servants and the entire society should check their eyes with ophthalmologists regularly to avert the danger associated with glaucoma.

MUSEUM AS A HEALTH AND WELLBEING FACILITATOR IN PANDEMIC ERA: A PERSPECTIVE FROM MUSEUM COMMUNICATION
Authors: Yudhawasthi Ciwuk Musiana
Published: August 2022

During the pandemic, museums in the world began to move to expand their role in social interaction. Referring to the proposed new museum definition from ICOM which is still being discussed, museums are expected to contribute to the health and well-being sector. Currently, all museums in the world are changing the way they work by using technology and carrying out all activities remotely by utilizing various applications to stay connected with their visitors. What about the condition of museums in Indonesia? how museums in Indonesia carry out their role as direct actors of social development beyond their educational role? Are museums in Indonesia more proactive in improving society lives with special consideration for marginalized groups, like a senior adult, disabled person, special need, people with dementia, schizophrenia, or people with mental health? How museums in Indonesia use technology to communicate with their users? Researchers use qualitative studies and virtual ethnographic methods to explore museums that use social media. The results of the study show that most of the museums in Indonesia are not aware of their role to contribute to the quality of urban life, especially during the pandemic. And museum communication skills in the pandemic era must be expanded through the use of the internet while still paying attention to the ethics and limitations that apply to each type of collection owned.

Este artigo visa a analisar a experiência de Educação Não-Formal (ENF) vivenciada por um conjunto de jovens do bairro de Plataforma — subúrbio da cidade de Salvador. A opção pelo subúrbio de um grande centro urbano está apoiada nos estudos segundo os quais é especialmente nesses cenários que mais se evidencia a ausência do Estado no campo das políticas públicas e onde se concentra a população jovem desfavorecida social e culturalmente. Nesses espaços “esquecidos”, os jovens vivem e enfrentam diferentes estigmas que afetam diretamente seu processo de inserção socioprofissional.

Teorias da Cidade, de Barbara Freitag
Authors: Oliveira Lima Denise Maria
Published: August 2022

A presente resenha trata do último livro de Barbara Freitag, Teorias da Cidade, publicado pela Papirus Editora, o qual é resultado do seu esforço de construção de uma teoria das cidades - por meio do exame de todas as teorias formuladas através dos tempos que têm condições de explicar e compreender o fenômeno urbano hoje, ontem e no futuro - que possa colaborar para a solução dos problemas que as cidades apresentam atualmente, através de uma leitura interdisciplinar e intertextual da questão urbana. Das várias perspectivas disciplinares, a autora privilegia a sociológica. Para a sistematização dessas teorias, Freitag usa o critério de "escolas", pelas quais nos convida a flanar: alemã, francesa, inglesa e americana, e, consequentemente, sua recepção no Brasil. A autora também analisa, neste livro, a megaloplização de quatro cidades, Cidade do México, Rio de Janeiro, como um novo padrão de urbanização caracterizado pela "cidade partida".

Authors: Freitas Andréa
Published: August 2022

Este texto problematiza o tema da migração partidária de parlamentares e suas conseqüências sobre a representação política, explorando, especialmente, a relação entre o representante e seu partido. A idéia é trazer alguns argumentos iniciais sobre as conseqüências das trocas de legenda por políticos exercendo o mandato, que ultrapasse a perspectiva analítica dos procedimentos ou das regras de conversão de votos em cadeiras, revelando a complexidade do tema e a controvérsia que ele gera. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: partidos políticos, migração partidária, representação política, mandato.PARTY INFIDELITY AND POLITICAL REPRESENTATION: some arguments about the partidary migration in Brazil Andréa Freitas This text problematizes the theme of the partidary migration of members of parliament and their consequences on political representation, exploring, especially, the relationship between the representative and his party. We strive to bring some initial arguments, on the consequences of the party changes for politicians exercising their term, that surpass the analytical perspective of procedures or of the rules of conversion of votes in chairs, revealing the complexity of the theme and the controversy it generates. KEYWORDS: political parties, partidary migration, political representation, term.INFIDÉLITÉ AU PARTI ET REPRÉSENTATION POLITIQUE: quelques arguments concernant la migration d’un parti à l’autre au Brésil Andréa Freitas Cet article pose le problème du thème de la migration des parlementaires d’un parti à l’autre et de ses conséquences sur la représentation politique. On y analyse tout spécialement la relation entre les représentants des partis et leur parti. L’intention est d’apporter quelques arguments au départ sur les conséquences dues au fait que des élus politiques changent de parti au cours de leur mandat. On va au-delà d’une perspective analytique de procédé ou de règle de conversion des votes en sièges, montrant la complexité du thème et la controverse qui en découle.

PARTICIPAÇÃO E REPRESENTAÇÃO NOS CONSELHOS GESTORES E NO ORÇAMENTO PARTICIPATIVO
Authors: Helena Hahn Lüchmann Lígia
Published: August 2022

O debate contemporâneo, no campo da teoria democrática, vem desafiando o desenvolvimento de estudos e reflexões cerca das relações entre participação e representação no interior das práticas e experiências participativas. Tendo em vista que, de maneira geral, a participação ocorre através da representação, o trabalho objetiva analisar, a partir de experiências brasileiras, duas dimensões referentes ao grau de especificidade da representação no interior de modelos participativos, quais sejam: (i) frente ao modelo de representação eleitoral; e (ii) no interior de experiências participativas, notadamente as relativas a dois modelos paradigmáticos de representação: conselhos gestores e orçamento participativo. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: participação, representação, conselhos gestores, orçamento participativo. PARTICIPATION AND REPRESENTATION IN MANAGING COUNCILS AND IN PARTICIPATIVE BUDGET Lígia Helena Hahn Lüchmann The contemporary debate, in the field of the democratic theory, is challenging the development of studies and reflections concerning the relations between participation and representation inside participative practices and experiences. In view that, in a general way, the participation happens through representation, this paper aims to analyze, starting from Brazilian experiences, two dimensions regarding the degree of specificity of the representation in participative models, which are: (i) confronting to the model of electoral representation; and (ii) inside participative experiences, especially the ones relative to two paradigmatic representation models: managing councils and participative budget. KEYWORDS: participation, representation, managing councils, participative budget. PARTICIPATION ET REPRÉSENTATION, AU SEIN DES CONSEILS DE GESTION ET POUR UN BUDGET PARTICIPATIF Lígia Helena Hahn Lüchmann Dans le champ de la théorie démocratique, le débat contemporain est un véritable défi pour le développement des études et des réfléxions concernant les relations entre la participation et la représentation, au sein des pratiques et des expériences participatives. Etant donné que la participation se fait en général par le biais de la représentation, ce travail se veut d’analyser, à partir d’expériences brésiliennes, deux dimensions qui se rapportent au degré de spécificité de la représentation au sein de modèles participatifs, c’est-à-dire : (i) face au modèle de représentation électorale et (ii) au sein d’expériences participatives, notamment celles relatives à deux modèles pragmatiques de représentation: les conseils de gestion et le budget participatif.

Authors: Gracino Júnior Paulo
Published: August 2022

Este estudo analisa as variáveis que contribuem para assimetria no que diz respeito à adesão religiosa apresentada pelo território de Minas Gerias. Como podemos observar pelos números que emergem do último censo do IBGE (2000), grande parte do território do estado constitui-se como uma das searas mais inóspitas ao crescimento pentecostal, configurando-se, junto com alguns outros estados, como uma das trincheiras avançadas da resistência católica.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: pentecostalismo, catolicismo, mineiridade, tradição, família.“MINAS ARE MANY, BUT THERE’S NO NEED TO EXAGGERATE”: local identity and resistance to pentecostalism in Minas GeraisPaulo Gracino JúniorThis study analyzes the variables that contribute to the asymmetry in what regards religious adhesion in the state of Minas Gerais. As we can observe through the numbers that emerge from the last census by IBGE (2000), great part of the state territory is one of the hardest regarding the pentecostal growth, becoming, with some other states, as one of the advanced trenches of the Catholic resistance.KEYWORDS: pentecostalism, Catholicism, mineirity, tradition, family.“IL Y A BEAUCOUP DE MINAS, MAIS IL NE FAUT PAS EXAGÉRER”: identité locale et résistance au pentecôtisme à Minas GeraisPaulo Gracino JúniorCette étude analyse les variables qui contribuent à l’assymétrie relative à l’adhésion réligieuse dans l’Etat de Minas Gerais.

Este texto procura realizar uma breve análise sobre as inquietudes teóricas e analíticas no estudo dos movimentos sociais. Nesse sentido, são estabelecidas algumas pautas de análise para uma compreensão e uma interpretação mais adequada dos fenômenos coletivos contemporâneos. Por outro lado, o texto dedica-se a articular o marco analítico sobre movimentos sociais com o percurso político e social vivido pela esquerda política no Uruguai, principalmente a partir do processo de redemocratização política da década de 80. Finalmente, é discutido o espaço político cultural ocupado hoje por essa corrente no governo nacional, sugerindo algumas interpretações sobre o significado histórico no nosso presente.

Gadea This paper tries to accomplish a brief analysis on the theoretical and analytical complicated issues in the study of the social movements. In that sense, some analysis lines are established for a more appropriate interpretation and understanding of the contemporary collective phenomena. On the other hand, this paper aims to articulate the analytical cornerstone on social movements with the political and social trajectory lived by the political left in Uruguay, mainly starting from the process of political redemocratization of the decade of 80. Finally, the cultural-political space is discussed as it is occupied today by that trend in the national government, suggesting some interpretations on its historical meaning in our present. KEY WORDS: Social movements theories, social theory,political left, Uruguay, Latin America. L’ETUDE DES MOUVEMENTS SOCIAUX ET LA GAUCHE POLITIQUE EN AMERIQUE LATINE Carlos A.

A ce propos, des critères d’analyse sont définis pour permettre une compréhension et une interprétation plus adéquate des phénomènes collectifs contemporains. D’autre part, on cherche à rapprocher le référent analytique concernant les mouvements sociaux du parcours politique et social vécu par la gauche politique en Uruguay, surtout à partir du processus de re-démocratisation politique dans les années 80. Finalement, c’est l’espace politique culturel actuellement occupé par ce courant au sein du gouvernement national qui est discuté, et l’on y suggère quelques interprétations de son sens historique dans le présent.
