Made of Shores aporta al campo de los estudios judaicos latinoamericanos una renovación de la mirada que tenemos sobre los conceptos de identidad judía y argentina, tanto en un ámbito personal como colectivo, desde las problemáticas que preocupan en el nuevo milenio.
2000 Years of Mayan Literature. DENNIS TEDLOCK: University of California Press, 2010
Authors: León Ann De
Published: February 2024

In 2000 Years of Mayan Literature Dennis Tedlock takes a painstaking approach to detail and asks us to reconsider our notions of pre-Colombian Mayan literacy and literature. This book gives a rich multi-level translation and decoding of the surviving corpus of Mayan material culture (pictographic writing, monuments, pottery, ornaments, códices) and its later post-Conquest destruction, adaptation and survival in the language-based categories of western epistemology (Roman alphabet).
Almodóvar, El Deseo and the Co-Production of Latin-American Space
Authors: D`Lugo Marvin
Published: February 2024

Pedro Almodóvar’s films of the last decade and a half, in combination with the series of six co-productions sponsored by his production company, El Deseo S. A., during the same period, exemplify what Néstor García Canclini describes as the co-production of a transnational Hispanic identity (1995: 130). The objective of this essay is to explore the cultural politics that informs this particular version of transnational filmmaking, first by probing the implications of the strategy through which Almodóvar’s recent films stabilize a mode of address directed to both Spanish and Latin American audiences; second, by examining the relation between his increasing emphasis on Latin American cultural tropes and El Deseo’s collaboration with Latin American auteurs beginning in 2000.
PAULA ALONSO: Jardines secretos, legitimaciones públicas: El Partido Autonomista Nacional y la política argentina de fines del siglo XIX. Buenos Aires: EDHASA, 2010.
Authors: De la Fuente Ariel
Published: February 2024

This thoroughly researched and carefully argued book is a major contribution to the political history of 19th-century Argentina. In Jardines secretos… Paula Alonso studies the workings of the Partido Autonomista Nacional (PAN), the political party that dominated Argentine politics between 1880 and 1916. Although the PAN has attracted significant attention among historians and social scientists, in this book Alonso takes an approach that allows her to open new perspectives on the subject: this is the first study that actually investigates the concrete day-to-day practices that shaped the party and that widely impacted the national political process.
BOESTEN JELKE: Intersecting Inequalities: Women and Social Policy in Peru, 1990–2000. Penn State University Press, 2010.
Authors: Wilhoit Ella
Published: February 2024

Many social scientists have recently called for studies of marginalized people’s interaction with ‘the state’ in particular contexts. While the role of state apparatus in perpetuating gendered, racial and class-based inequalities is a popular topic of theoretical discussion, analyses of the minutiae of subjects’ daily engagements with state power, in the form of bureaucracy, development programs and grassroots organizing have been less common.
LAURIE A. FREDERIK: Trumpets in the Mountains: Theater and the Politics of National Culture in Cuba. Durham and London: Duke University Press, 2011.
Authors: White Bretton
Published: February 2024

The arduous physical work of creating and staging community theater in remote Cuban villages is documented in Laurie Frederik’s engaging anthropological study Trumpets in the Mountains: Theater and the Politics of National Culture in Cuba. Frederik carried out her fieldwork during Cuba’s severe economic crisis known as the Special Period, in the 1990s, which added layers of hardship to already difficult stagings. The logistical organization and labor of moving a theater group from town to mountain town—often without mechanized help—gives ethnographic insight into theater practice, rural living, and community involvement that is rarely discussed in dialogues about contemporary Cuban culture.
WENDY D. ROTH: Race Migrations: Latinos and the Cultural Transformation of Race. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 2012.
Authors: Castillo Eric
Published: February 2024

With current debates about comprehensive immigration reform at the forefront of U.S.-American politics, Wendy Roth enters this conversation at a critical juncture by exploring the relationship between migration and racial identity. The crux of this monograph examines how migration influences perceptions of race and racial identity within a transnational context. Rather than highlighting how migrants learn about and adjust to U.S. racial schemas, Roth contends that, just as transnationalism allows the transmission of language and culture etc., the discourse on race and race relations flows between both sending and host societies.
WILFRIDO H. CORRAL: 'Vargas Llosa: la batalla de las ideas'. Madrid: Iberoamericana/Vervuert, 2012.
Authors: Wassner Dalia
Published: February 2024

In Vargas Llosa: La Batalla En Las Ideas, Wilfrido H. Corral aims to define the type of public intellectual Mario Vargas Llosa embodied, and in the process reclaim Vargas Llosa for Latin Americans. While cognizant of the global inspirations and corollary international admiration that largely made Vargas Llosa the public figure he is today, Corral is focused on assessing the writer’s message, method and historical significance as a global public intellectual within a Latin American context that is defined as much globally as it is regionally. Couched in response to Edward Said’s postulations regarding intellectuals and power in The Word, The Text, and The Critic (1983), Corral argues that Vargas Llosa’s greatest contribution lies in insisting that no one who claims to own the truth does so.
New Directions in the History of Peronism
Authors: Elena Eduardo
Published: February 2024

When scholars who work on Peronism reveal their area of expertise to non-Argentinean colleagues, reactions tend to fall along two lines. Most respond eagerly with their favorite anecdotes about Juan and Evita. But some have a perception that research on Peronism has been exhausted or that the subject is passé – or as one colleague put it, with a suitably outmoded expression, “Isn’t Peronism old hat?” The reality is that the field of “Peronism studies” shows few signs of stagnation. Indeed, the quantity of publications on Peronism appearing each year is daunting, to say nothing about the high quality of many works. Although researchers are scattered across the globe and represent a range of disciplines, the bulk of this scholarship is produced in Argentina, which explains, regrettably, its partial invisibility to academics elsewhere. For non-specialists perhaps most surprising is that the majority of new works are not studies of organized labor. This is not to say that labor is “dead”: far from it, as excellent labor studies continue to be produced and to ignore working women and men in the study of Peronism would be foolish. Yet the problems of state-labor rela- tions that once defined the field have given way to broader research agendasand methodological experimentation.
Engendering Argentine History: A Historiographical Review of Recent Gender-Based Histories of Women during the National Period
Authors: Pite Rebekah E.
Published: February 2024

As Dora Barrancos pointed out in her 2004 state-of-the-field essay, since theearly twentieth century, a small number of Argentine scholars have dedicatedthemselves to writing histories about women.3 The 1980s witnessed a significantincrease in female-focused scholarship across the world; and Argentina, especiallyafter the fall of the military dictatorship in 1983, was no exception. In Argentina,as elsewhere in Latin America, scholars from other social science disciplineswere among the first to employ gender-based analysis.4 By the end of the decade,feminist scholars in Argentina founded the first interdisciplinary institutes ofwomen’s studies in national universities.5 And during the early 1990s, scholars ata number of these institutes began to publish interdisciplinary feminist journalsincluding La Alijaba: Segunda Epóca, Mora, and Zona Franca.6 In 1991, theUniversidad de Luján hosted the first academic meeting focused squarely onwomen’s history. The following year, historians at the Universidad de BuenosAires hosted the second iteration of this workshop, adding gender into the newtitle, “II Jornadas de Historia de las Mujeres y Estudios de Género.”7 Ever since,a growing number of (primarily Argentine) historians have met at this annualconference to present new research on women and gender.

La defensa del orden: construcción de amenazas sociales y su neutralización en Uruguay (1945-1968)
Authors: Kierszenbaum Leandro
Published: February 2024

En este artículo propondré una lectura sobre el proceso de construcción de una imagen de “sociedad virtuosa” compartida por vastos sectores de la sociedad uruguaya –no necesariamente definido por un corte político-ideológico estricto– y que debía ser celosamente defendida. La “virtuosidad” implicaba adecuarse a los ideales que enaltecían el trabajo, el ahorro, el orden, la salud y la higiene. Las que eran percibidas como desviaciones eran consideradas como amenazas que ponían en riesgo la continuidad de la propia sociedad. Es por ello que se analizan los procesos de criminalización de aquellos sectores de la población, de aquellas ideas y de aquellos comportamientos que contradecían lo virtuoso y conformaban su opuesto, lo desviado; en definitiva, la “mala vida”.

Scholars of Cuba are constantly trying, and failing, to escape Havana. Eventsand sources based in the capital too often substitute for knowledge of the islandas a whole. From this point of view, Anne Birkenmaier and Esther Whitfield’sedited collection Havana Beyond the Ruins might be accused of adding anotherHavana-centric entry to an already Havana-centric scholarly corpus. And yet,rather than simply mining the city, its people, and its archives for the storiesthey tell about the nation, the contributors to this impressive volume endeavorto re-particularize the capital, taking the physical, lived, and imagined spacesof urban life as their subject of inquiry, as texts to be read.

Envisioning a “Whitened” Brazil: Photography and Slavery at the World’s Fairs, 1862–1889
Authors: Schuster Sven
Published: February 2024

AbstractBetween 1862 and 1889, the Brazilian elite perceived international exhibitionsas an opportunity to promote and project an idealized image of the“modern nation”. By displaying commodities and agricultural products, as wellas some manufactured artifacts, Brazil sought to attract foreign investmentand immigrants. However, in contrast to its Spanish American competitorsat the world’s fairs, many of Brazil’s exhibits derived from slave labor. Todownplay this unpleasant reality before a critical international audience, theexhibition organizers used the “objective” medium of photography to depicttheir country as overwhelmingly European, focusing on the gradual processof “whitening” through immigration. In addition, a few carefully selectedphotographs of black people aimed to corroborate the “benevolent” natureof the Brazilian slavery system.Keywords: Brazil, world’s fairs, photography, slavery, visual culture,19th centuryResumenEntre 1862 y 1889, la elite brasileña concibió exposiciones internacionalescomo una oportunidad para promover la imagen idealizada de una “naciónmoderna”.

Introducción: Música popular en el Cono Sur durante el periodo de la Guerra Fría (1947-1989)
Authors: Ribke Nahuel
Published: February 2024

Ampliamente recordado por los sangrientos conflictos políticos y socialesque desató en todo el continente, el periodo de la guerra fría en América Latina(1947-1989) dejó también una fuerte impronta en el campo de la cultura engeneral y en la música popular latinoamericana en particular. Durante este periodosurgen con fuerza diferentes corrientes y estilos de música popular que sedestacan por su claro compromiso social y político. El movimiento de la nuevacanción latinoamericana, con sus distintas vertientes nacionales, es un ejemplode este tipo música comprometida con los procesos de cambio social y político.Al mismo tiempo, durante este periodo también, surgen figuras artísticas querepresentan estilos musicales y posiciones estéticas e ideológicas consideradas,a veces erróneamente, como antagónicas a los procesos de cambio político ysocial de las décadas de 1960 y 1970. La asociación, no siempre errónea, decantantes de gran popularidad, identificados con los ritmos de la música pop deorigen anglosajón y la balada romántica, con posiciones contrarias a los procesosde cambio son un ejemplo del impacto del clima de época, inclusive en génerosmusicales considerados como despolitizados. El debate desatado en los años 60sobre el tinte “conservador” de los músicos de la “Nueva Ola” en la Argentinay la “Jovem Guarda” en Brasil son una muestra del tipo de ordenamiento yclasificación que atravesó la producción musical de esos años.

Democratización y derechos humanos en Clarín: la identidad discursiva del diario argentino (1983-1999)
Authors: Iturralde Micaela
Published: February 2024

El presente artículo se propone analizar el tratamiento otorgado por el diario argentino Clarín a la cuestión de los derechos humanos durante las presidencias de Raúl Alfonsín (1983-1989) y de Carlos Menem (1989-1999).  Para tal fin, se estudian de manera exhaustiva las interpretaciones y claves de lectura propuestas por el medio gráfico en algunas coyunturas fundamentales tales como la recuperación de la institucionalidad democrática (1983), el Juicio a las Juntas Militares (1985), las leyes de Punto Final (1986) y Obediencia Debida (1987), los Indultos (1989 y 1990) y la conmemoración de los 20 años del golpe de Estado (1996).  ¿Cuáles fueron las particularidades que caracterizaron el tratamiento periodístico realizado por Clarín sobre la cuestión de los derechos humanos en el contexto de la recuperada democracia? ¿Es posible reconocer alguna especificidad en su lectura? ¿De qué manera las interpretaciones elaboradas por el matutino se vinculan con su historia institucional y con sus posicionamientos históricos en torno al problema de los derechos humanos? El panorama reconstruido en este estudio restituye una imagen más matizada de los procesos de democratización y del tratamiento público de la cuestión de los derechos humanos, en el que las prácticas, demandas y los posicionamientos expresados por el diario no representaron un proceso lineal, unidireccional y homogéneo sino uno de marchas y contramarchas que determinaron una postura moderada y neutral frente a los extremos que representaban las demandas e interpretaciones de las Fuerzas Armadas, por un lado, y el movimiento de derechos humanos, por el otro.
The Impact of the English-Language Press in Mexico
Authors: Tuckman Jo
Published: February 2024

There was something faintly surreal about sitting in my home in Mexico City in June 2012 and watching the anchor of the main nightly news show on Milenio TV tear into my credibility. “The Guardian has no source!” he said. I  remember him repeating the phrase, perhaps even banging a hand on the table. The veteran broadcaster was channelling this righteous defense of journalistic standards against stories I had written about deals promising politicians friendly exposure from the media giant Televisa. The stories were based on digital documents obtained from a credible source and dating from 2005. The political fortunes of most of the politicians involved had since faded, but one of them — Enrique Peña Nieto — looked set to win the following month’s presidential election after years of positive coverage on Televisa’s networks.

Boxing Cultures and Perceptions of Violence in Venezuela
Authors: Sheinin David M. K.
Published: February 2024

This article stresses the ways in which Venezuelans came to understand and explain the connections between boxing and violence from the 1960s through the early 1980s. As in other Latin American countries, Venezuelans were consumed during the Cold War by what they saw as a dramatic rise in societal violence often associated with the perceived ills of rapid urbanization. However, the public narrative about violence in boxing had little bearing on that wider understanding of social problems. Like other narratives about boxing, the cultural construction of boxing violence in Venezuela derived almost exclusively from US media and other popular transnational narratives, which reflected the weight of the United States on the business, practice, and development of boxing in Venezuela.

Argentina y la Segunda Guerra Mundial mitos y realidades
Authors: Rapoport Mario
Published: February 2024

La época de la Segunda Guerra Mundial es una de las más interesantes y conflictivas de la historia argentina. Las décadas de 1930 y 1940 constituyen un momento crucial en lo político y en lo económico, y en la vinculación del país con el mundo, lo que ha sido reconocido por la mayoría de los autores que las han estudiado. Sin embargo, un aspecto no fue suficientemente analizado: el rol que jugaron las percepciones, las imágenes, las visiones de esos años en los mismos protagonistas, pero sobre todo en las generaciones que les sucedieron tanto en la Argentina como en el exterior. Esas percepciones tuvieron más fuerza que los hechos para explicar la realidad de la época y contribuyeron a conformar las visiones tradicionales que durante mucho tiempo aparecieron incontestadas, incluso en el ámbito académico
Allegorical Cities: Bodies and Visions in Colombian Urban Cinema
Authors: Kantaris Elia Geoffrey
Published: February 2024

Filmic mappingThis paper compares two Colombian films, Rodrigo D. No futuro by Víctor Gaviria and La estrategia del caracol by Sergio Cabrera, [1] in an attempt to show how, in their different ways, they try to map the lines of intersection between body, screen, and social space. Both films are set within a cityscape which provides an allegorical backdrop for a visible politics of space, from the dissolution and recombination of (local) place under the speculative flows of economic (and cultural) capital, to the decorporealization of space within the aggressive (global) realm of visualization and the simulacrum. In order to theorize these links, I employ some of the categories for the analysis of social and urban space developed by the French Marxist thinker Henri Lefebvre and extended by cultural geographers such as David Harvey and Derek Gregory. The resonance (or coincidence) of these analyses with the thinking of Gaviria and Cabrera is, I believe, quite striking. Moreover, and perhaps beyond Lefebvre's insistence on the dictatorship of the image, both of their films seem to link processes of envisioning to the projection of an enigmatic, faintly sketched blueprint for resistance.

Published: February 2024

Coastal tourist destinations have vulnerability to the potential for tsunamis. New Zealand and Indonesia as a coastal tourism destination that facing the risk of natural disasters. This study aims to compare coastal tourism destination management policies against natural disasters in New Zealand and Indonesia. Through the literature review method, this paper analyzes proactive disaster management practices and policies in both countries. New Zealand has developed an efficient early warning system and raised public awareness, while Indonesia has financial challenges and vast areas as obstacles to natural disaster management. Research recommendations include the development of a more responsive early warning system, improved safety education for tourism actors, and greater budget allocation for mitigation projects. These measures are directed at strengthening Indonesia's preparedness in the face of potential natural disasters.
Spatial and temporal study of estimating carbon stocks distribution of mangrove forest in coastal area of Teluknaga, Tangerang
Authors: Yumnaristya Syefiara Hania , Indra Tito Latif , Supriatna  , Pin Tjiong Giok , Gracia Enrico
Published: February 2024

Coastal mangrove forests play a crucial role in balancing carbon emissions in the atmosphere as they are a significant carbon store. Previous studies have shown that mangroves can absorb carbon four times more efficiently than terrestrial tropical forests. Unfortunately, the massive development and land use changes in Teluknaga District's coastal areas threaten these ecosystems' existence. To address this concern, efforts are being made to increase conservation, including estimating carbon stock. The aim of this study is to analyze the spatial distribution of biomass and carbon stock of mangrove forests in Teluknaga between 2016-2022 based on vegetation indices such as ARVI, EVI, and SAVI. Sentinel-2 was calculated into ARVI, EVI, and SAVI vegetation indices to model biomass. Statistical correlation analysis was also used to determine the best vegetation index to model biomass in the coastal area of Teluknaga District. This study found that the ARVI vegetation index had the best correlation (R = 0.60) for modeling biomass, with an RMSE value of 36.67 kg/pixel. Most mangrove forests in the coastal area of Teluknaga District showed an increase in biomass and carbon stock between 2016-2022, with significant growth in Muara and Lemo villages' mangrove forests, which is in line with an increase in the area and density of mangrove forests.
Dispositifs d'autoformation en période post-covid dans les lycées camerounais
Authors: Kouankem Constantine , Ndibnu-Messina Julia
Published: February 2024

Thanks to the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Cameroonian government recommended self-learning for students. This involves developing learners' self-training outside the classroom by integrating multimedia into their teaching practices. In line with this objective, various measures have been put in place to enable students to acquire knowledge and develop skills independently. With an action-oriented aim, this work focuses on the analysis of the different devices deployed for the operationalization of this self-training. From this perspective, this research would like to study the transition from the exclusively transmissive paradigm to the paradigm of hetero-direction of learners while taking a look at the representations of the main actors. It emerges from the analysis of the questionnaires administered and the interviews conducted that very few establishments and target learners make use of the systems put in place for the individualization of knowledge inside and outside the classroom. The self-learning process put in place by the Government is a complex system still in its infancy, but evolving and therefore perfectible.

The Cameroonian educational environment is marked by a significant proliferation of private secondary schools, especially in Yaoundé, the political capital of Cameroon and capital of the Central Region. Among them, some operate clandestinely, i.e. on the fringe of the regulations in place. Consequently, not a year goes by without the Ministry of Secondary Education (MINSEC) of Cameroon sanctioning them by ministerial orders. Given that such a situation poses an ethical problem and that ethics is consubstantial to organisations, this article addresses ethical management as applied ethics. To this end, it explores ethical management system within school organisations. The analysis is exploratory in nature and follows a qualitative approach, using semi-structured interviews and documents as data collection tools, and thematic analysis as a data analysis method. The sample consisted of 5 heads of general secondary schools. At the end of the analysis, it was found that sanctions, awareness-raising, software, spies and laws are ethical management systems in those schools.

Background: Broca’s Aphasia is a language disorder characterized by difficulties in speech production and fluency, significantly affecting communication. Script training, a language rehabilitation technique, has shown promise in treating this condition. However, its efficacy in a controlled clinical setting had yet to be fully explored.
Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of script training in improving the expressive language abilities of individuals with Broca’s Aphasia.
Methods: This case report study was conducted over a period of six months at the University of Lahore Teaching Hospital. Using purposive sampling, patients diagnosed with Broca’s Aphasia were selected. Participants underwent script training sessions, which involved repetitive practice of personalized scripts. The Mississippi Aphasia Screening Test (MAST) was employed for initial assessments and tracking progress. Ethical considerations were strictly adhered to, with informed consent obtained from all participants. The study included both quantitative and qualitative methods for data analysis.
Results: The study demonstrated significant improvements in participants' expressive language abilities. Pre-therapy MAST scores averaged at 10/50, which increased to an average of 23/50 post-therapy. Notable areas of improvement included Naming (from 3/10 to 6/10), Automatic Speech (from 1/10 to 6/10), and Verbal Fluency (from 1/10 to 6/10). However, Repetition and Writing/Spelling showed minimal changes.
Conclusion: Script training showed a significant positive impact on the expressive language skills of individuals with Broca’s Aphasia. This suggests that script training can be a beneficial therapeutic intervention in the language rehabilitation of Broca’s Aphasia patients, particularly in enhancing Naming, Automatic Speech, and Verbal Fluency. Future studies should investigate long-term effects and the integration of script training with other therapeutic approaches.

Abstract

Purpose:

To study the incidence of retinopathy of prematurity at a tertiary care children hospital

Methods:

After obtaining ethical approval, this cross sectional study was performed on all the patients who presented to pediatric ophthalmology department of CH & ICH from July 2018 to December, 2021. These included neonates admitted in NICU of CH&ICH and also referrals from other hospitals. The babies born before 34 weeks of gestation or birth weight less than 2000 grams, and given supplemental oxygen, who required hospital admission were screened in first 30 days of life. Prior to examination, the pupil was dilated using 10% phenylephrine and 0.5% cyclopentolate and 0.1% tropicamide eye drops by a trained nurse. The fundus examination was carried out under topical anesthesia using proparacaine 0.5%, after swaddling the baby. ETROP criteria was used for treatment, i-e patients with stage3 ROP or plus disease in Zone 1 were treated immediately. Other stages were kept on a close follow up.

Results:

Three hundred and seventy seven neonates were male (60.5%). Total number of patients with any stage of ROP was 40 (13.07%). Those with type 1 ROP were treated with laser or intra- vitreal anti- VEGF (bevacizumab 0.625 mg in 0.05ml). Those with type 2 disease were observed on weekly basis for worsening of features. There were 13 patients who received intra- vitreal injection and only one of them required diode laser after injection.

Conclusion:

A multidisciplinary team is essential to prevent blindness due to ROP in developing countries. Screening the babies who are at high risk of disease will lessen the burden on screening team.

Objectives: to find the comparison of the contrast sensitivity between pre and post Lasik surgery patients

Methods: Visual acuity with Snellen was measured by a patient covers one eye from 6 meter or 20 feet away, and patient reads the letters of each row, the smallest row that the patient can read indicates the visual acuity in that eye. Refractive error was measured by using autorefractometer. Contrast sensitivity was measured by using Pelli-Robson chart at 1 meter with their best correction. Note readings preoperatively and give follow-up time to patients. After 40 days, we measure visual acuity with Snellen chart and then contrast sensitivity with Pelli-Robson chart and note the readings.

Results: This study included 45 individuals with mean age 25±5. Contrast sensitivity of Right eye pre-Lasik was 1.25±0.55. contrast sensitivity of Left Eye pre-Lasik was 1.37±0.51. contrast sensitivity of Right Eye         after Lasik was 1.62±0.59. of contrast sensitivity of left eye after Lasik was 1.75±0.57.

Conclusion: As a result of this study, we concluded that contrast sensitivity was significantly improved after LASIK surgery. To enhance the cosmetic appearance of a patient with minimum possibility of complications LASIK surgery is the better method.
