Authors: Ghosh Mihir , Akbar Alibasha , Lakshmi M Bhavani
Published: July 2024

Addressing water pollution effectively has led to the recognition of spinel ferrites as highly promising materials due to their inherent stability, magnetic characteristics, and photocatalytic capabilities. This review evaluates recent progress in employing spinel ferrites for the degradation of organic contaminants in water, highlighting their beneficial properties such as low bandgap energy, hydroxyl radical generation under light, and ease of separation through magnetic properties. Despite considerable research efforts, optimizing the synthesis techniques and photocatalytic performance of spinel ferrites remains a challenge. Key areas needing further exploration include improved doping methods, modifications to enhance photocatalysis, and evaluations of reusability, durability, and scalability. This review addresses these issues by providing a thorough analysis of recent innovations in spinel ferrite-based photocatalysts, including novel hybrid materials and advanced synthesis techniques like sol-gel, co-precipitation, and hydrothermal processes. This review offers an in-depth examination of the latest advancements in spinel ferrite photocatalysts, focusing on their applications in water purification. It investigates the influence of operational parameters; such as pH, temperature, light intensity, and catalyst dosage on efficiency and explores emerging composite materials and previously unexplored spinel ferrite systems. By incorporating recent research developments, the review underscores the significant potential of spinel ferrites and their composites for enhancing sustainable water treatment technologies.

Authors: Anaba O. A. , Asunka B. A. , Boatbil C. S. , Polycarp D. , Akanyako J. , Mba O. D.
Published: July 2024

Purpose: This study holds significant importance as it delves into the degree to which small and micro tourist businesses (SMTBs), particularly small lodging businesses in the Upper East Region of Ghana, have adopted the concept of sustainability. This investigation is crucial for understanding the current state of sustainability in the tourism industry.
Design/Methodology/ Approach: This study employed a purposive sampling technique and conducted a comprehensive survey of 196 lodging facility owner-managers. The responses of 144 participants were meticulously examined to gauge the level of sustainability embraced by their companies. A 5-point Likert-type scale, ranging from 1 (not at all) to 5 (very much so), was used to measure the responses. The statistical techniques of ANOVA and frequency analysis were employed to investigate and test the means of the variables and their significance across business categories.
Findings: The findings revealed that, depending on the type of business, there are notable variations in the following areas: 1) attitude toward accepting sustainability; 2) application of sustainability for their enterprises; and 3) understanding of the obstacles to applying sustainability among owner-managers of lodging houses.
Research Limitation/Implication: This study was only exploratory due to some practical constraints and methodological limitations that prevented the inclusion of a wide range of sectors. It also focused on SMTBs in only the Upper East Region of Ghana.
Practical Implication: A policy foundation is necessary for small businesses to respond dynamically to changing business and social environment trends. For example, environmental marks in the manufacturing industry, environmental tourism management practices, and environmental tourism consumption experiences should be introduced and rewarded, and related promotion measures should be specified.
Social Implication: The study recommends policy options for improving SMTB sustainability and how their establishments can impact the environment and society.
Originality/Value: The study's originality is how SMBTs respond to environmental sustainability concerning their business characteristics at the local level. Secondly, the Upper East Region of Ghana has many tourism businesses; hence, there is a need to understand the concept of sustainable tourism specifically applied to business activities.

Rit1-TBC1D10B signaling modulates FcγR-mediated phagosome formation in RAW264 macrophages
Authors: Egami Youhei , Kawai Katsuhisa , Araki Nobukazu
Published: July 2024

Phagocytosis is an important immune response that protects the host from pathogen invasion. Rit1 GTPase is known to be involved in diverse cellular processes. However, its role in FcγR-mediated phagocytosis remains unclear. Our live-cell imaging analysis revealed that Rit1 was localized to the membranes of F-actin-rich phagocytic cups in RAW264 macrophages. Rit1 knockout and expression of the GDP-locked Rit1 mutant suppressed phagosome formation. We also found that TBC1D10B, a GAP for the Rab family GTPases, colocalizes with Rit1 in the membranes of phagocytic cups. Expression and knockout studies have shown that TBC1D10B decreases phagosome formation in both Rab-GAP activity–dependent and –independent manners. Notably, the expression of the GDP-locked Rit1 mutant or Rit1 knockout inhibited the dissociation of TBC1D10B from phagocytic cups. In addition, the expression of the GTP-locked Rit1 mutant promoted the dissociation of TBC1D10B in phagocytic cups and restored the rate of phagosome formation in TBC1D10B-expressing cells. These data suggest that Rit1-TBC1D10B signaling regulates FcγR-mediated phagosome formation in macrophages.
Justice-involved rangatahi: Their experiences with police and future orientation
Authors:   , Espellarga Carmela Ricci
Published: July 2024

The current qualitative research explored justice-involved rangatahi (youth) perceptions and experiences with police, and how this may influence their future orientation. Ten rangatahi were interviewed through Oranga Tamariki (Ministry for Children) and various youth justice community groups. Interviews were transcribed and analysed using Reflexive Thematic Analysis (RTA; Braun & Clarke, 2006, 2020) to identify patterns of meaning across interviews. Six themes were developed in relation to rangatahi perceptions and experiences with police, as well as their perceptions of their future: 1) attitudes of resistance towards police, 2) policing practices need improvements, 3) whakawhanaungatanga, 4) influence over my future vs destiny, 5) antisocial peers influence reoffending and 6) internal and external resources are necessary for achieving goals. Despite rangatahi acknowledging the difficulties in policing, the findings highlighted the predominately negative perceptions and experiences rangatahi had with police. Regarding their future, rangatahi showed goals of stability and financial success, while also acknowledging the resources and barriers that may impact the achievement of their goals. The negative experiences of rangatahi with police motivated rangatahi to work towards a successful future to indicate police behaviour did not impact their life outcomes. The response to negative police interactions may have been influenced by where in the youth justice process rangatahi were (i.e., exposure to interventions), where they were on their desistance journey, and the nature of the support received from youth justice professionals. The current research contributes to limited research investigating the influence of police experiences on rangatahi. This research identified a need for further research on the relationship between the two groups, and practical implications for improvements in policing practices to improve approaches to supporting justice-involved rangatahi.

Published: July 2024

With the deepening of globalization, intercultural communication has become an important part of people’s daily lives and work. English, as an international language, plays a vital role in intercultural communication. However, simple language knowledge can no longer meet the needs of modern society. Students need to have intercultural awareness and competence to better adapt to the development of globalization. Therefore, it is particularly important to improve students’ intercultural awareness and competence in English teaching. This paper will discuss how to improve students’ intercultural awareness and competence in English teaching, which includes three parts. The first part introduces the definition of intercultural awareness and competence. The second part explores the importance of intercultural awareness and competence to students, which can help students better understand and respect different cultures, stimulate students’ innovative thinking and creativity, and cultivate critical thinking skills, and is also of great significance to students’ professional development, personal growth, and social responsibility. The third part discusses the effective methods and strategies to improve students’ intercultural awareness and competence in teaching, including carrying out cultural discussion and debate, introducing diverse materials, creating intercultural experience teaching activities, and using virtual learning tools. To a certain extent, this study can enrich the theoretical research in the field of intercultural awareness and competence, help to improve students’ intercultural awareness and competence, and provide certain practical guidance for educators to teach intercultural courses.
Konut Kavramının Ev/Yuva Kavramına Evrilmesinin Örnekler Üzerinden İncelenmesi
Authors: Kandemir Ayşenur , Aytıs Saadet
Published: July 2024

Bireyler ve ev arasındaki ilişki, tarihsel süreçte filozof ve düşünürlerin de değindiği konular arasında yer almış; bireyin içerisinde barındığı konutun ev veya yuva kavramlarıyla nitelendirilmesi ve bu kavramlar arasında çeşitli kültürlerde bir ayırımın varlığı, üzerine araştırmalar yapılan bir konu olmuştur. İnsanın korunma ve barınma ihtiyacına yönelik işlevsel bir yapıyı ifade eden konut kavramı, içerisinde barınan bireyin mekânla bağ kurmasıyla fiziksel bir yapı olmanın ötesine geçerek güvenli bir sığınak, kişisel ve manevi değerlerini imgeleyen "ev" ve “yuva” kavramlarına evrilmektedir. Yani benzer yapısal ve işlevsel özelliklerle tasarlanan mekânların, salt konut olmanın ötesine geçebileceği ve kullanımlarına bağlı olarak ev/yuva olarak nitelendirilebileceği varsayılmaktadır. Çalışma, bir konutun tek başına ev veya yuva duygularını uyandıramayacağı fikrini desteklemektedir; bunun yerine, bireyler ve mekânlar arasındaki diyaloğun varoluşsal bağı güçlendirerek aidiyet gibi duygulara yol açacağı savunulmaktadır. Bu çalışma, insanın barındığı bir konutun hangi faktörlerle ve nasıl anlamlı bir mekâna dönüşerek ev veya yuva olarak nitelendirildiğini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaç kapsamında araştırmanın metodolojisinin oluşturulmasında ilk adım, kapsamlı bir literatür taramasından elde edilen bilgilerin kavramsal bir araştırma yaklaşımı kullanılarak işlenmesi ve çalışmanın çerçevesinin şekillendirilmesidir. Ardından, örnek olarak seçilen evler ile bu evlerde yaşayan bireyler arasındaki ilişki, seçilen evlerin görselleri üzerinden doküman analizi yöntemiyle ele alınmıştır. İkonik sanatçıların hem yaşam hem de çalışma alanlarını barındıran mekânların incelenmesi, bu evlerin sanatçıların kimlikleriyle nasıl iç içe geçtiğini göstermiştir. Bu mekânların sadece birer konut olmanın ötesine geçerek sanatçıların yaratıcı ifadelerinin ve kişisel yaşamlarının birer uzantısı haline geldiği sonucuna varılmış; Duygusal bağlantı, rahatlık ve aşinalık, kişiselleştirme, çevresel ve estetik faktörler, sahiplenme ve kontrol, kültürel değerler, kişisel deneyimler, manevi öneme sahip nesneler gibi faktörlerin, bir konutun ev ya da yuva olarak nitelendirilmesine katkıda bulunduğu görülmüştür.

Published: July 2024

The consumer's perspective on the brand image of a company's product is an important thing to pay attention to in order to help increase sales. A good brand image will create a desire to buy and consumer loyalty . Planting a brand image in the minds of consumers with good communication and labels will help provide information about a product to consumers. Thus, the role of brand image in a consumer perspective to increase sales is very necessary . Consumers will choose goods that have good quality and will also choose well-known brands or brand images. Generation Z is now in the habit of eating spicy food, one of which is noodles with various levels of taste and spiciness. Because of this consumer behavior, companies can develop various kinds of innovations. Advertisements in mass media continue to appear to increase product sales. In the process of purchasing an item, buyers will use their personal perspective to assess the quality of the item. Currently, Mie Gacoan is a spicy noodle brand that is growing rapidly, as shown by buyers' interest in long queues and a 24-hour opening system in several of its outlets. From this, we are interested in conducting research which aims to find out the consumer's perspective regarding the role of brand image in increasing product sales at the Mie Gacoan company. The method used is a literature review and a qualitative approach. Data sources used as references are research data, research reports, scientific journals and trusted official websites. The results of this research show that brand image plays a positive role in increasing product sales and is the most influential factor compared to other factors.
Modeling Rugose Spiraling Whitefly Infestation on Coconut Trees Using Delay Differential Equations: Analysis via HPM
Authors: Dhivyadharshini B. , Senthamarai R.
Published: July 2024

In this paper, a delay - induced pest control model is proposed. We have introduced a time delay in healthy trees and whitefly population in the infected tree density of the proposed system of equations to reduce the probability of healthy trees becoming infected, as well as the level of infection. We have analyzed the impact of time delay on the stability of the equilibrium and establish requirements to verify its asymptotic stability over all delays. The solutions of this system of non-linear ordinary differential equations(ODEs) and delay differential equations(DDEs) are presented by using homotopy perturbation method(HPM). Numerical simulation is also obtained for the same model of both ODE and DDE by using MATLAB software. The proposed method works very well and is easy to use, as shown by these findings. Our aim is to control the spread of whitefly such that harvest is not affected.
On Minimal Geodetic Hop Domination in Graphs
Authors: Catian Dyjay Bill , Aniversario Imelda , Jamil Ferdinand
Published: July 2024

Let $G$ be a nontrivial connected graph with vertex set $V(G)$. A set $S \subseteq V(G)$ is a geodetic hop dominating set of $G$ if the following two conditions hold for each $x\in V(G)\setminus S$: $(1)$ $x$ lies in some $u$-$v$ geodesic in $G$ with $u,v\in S$, and $(2)$ $x$ is of distance $2$ from a vertex in $S$. The minimum cardinality $\gamma_{hg}(G)$ of a geodetic hop dominating set of $G$ is the geodetic hop domination number of $G$. A geodetic hop dominating set $S$ is a minimal geodetic hop dominating set if $S$ does not contain a proper subset that is itself geodetic hop dominating set. The maximum cardinality of a minimal geodetic hop dominating set in $G$ is the \emph{upper geodetic hop domination number} of $G$, and is denoted by $\gamma^{+}_{hg}(G)$. This paper initiates the study of the minimal geodetic hop dominating set and the corresponding upper geodetic hop domination number of nontrivial connected graphs. Interestingly, every pair of positive integers $a$ and $b$ with $2\le a\le b$ is realizable as the geodetic domination number and the upper geodetic hop domination number, respectively, of some graph. Furthermore, this paper investigates the concept in the join, corona and lexicographic product of graphs.
Threshold Changeable Secret Sharing (TCSS) via Skew Polynomials
Authors: Angga Wijaya  , Intan Muchtadi Alamsyah  , Aleams Barra
Published: July 2024

Secret sharing is a tool to divide a secret into multiple shares, so that to reconstruct the secret, it is necessary to collect several shares under certain conditions. Secret sharing was first introduced by Adi Shamir, the scheme is based on polynomials. The secret is represented as a constant value polynomial, and the points on the polynomial graph serve as shares. Secret reconstruction is performed through Lagrange interpolation at a minimum of k out of n points, known as a threshold scheme (k, n). In 2010, Zhang Y. designed a secret sharing scheme through skew polynomials. Involving the role of the automorphism σ in the skew polynomial ring increases the complexity in share distribution and secret reconstruction. In 2012, Zhang Z. designed a secret sharing scheme with a threshold that can change according to the participants present during the reconstruction process, known as Threshold Changeable Secret Sharing (TCSS). This aims to prevent external parties from pretending to be valid participants in order to learn the secret. In this research, a TCSS scheme will be designed using skew polynomials. The aim is to make the TCSS scheme's calculations more complex, making it harder for adversaries to access the secret.

The main purpose of this article is to introduce the probabilistic type 2 poly-Bernoulli polynomials under the condition that Y is a random variable.  This means that we will consider the probabilistic extension of the type 2 poly-Bernoulli polynomials and study to obtain some new results. Furthermore, we also define the probabilistic unipoly-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers attached to p, and investigate their interesting basic properties. Based on these new definition, we derive some meaningful formulae of probabilistic type 2 poly-Bernoulli polynomials and probabilistic unipoly-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers attached to p.
On the Characterizations of Approach Groups

Published: July 2024

In this paper, we present several characterizations on approach groups, and ultra-approach groups. In doing so, we first give necessary and sufficient conditions for an approach structure to be compatible with group structure. We show that every ultra-approach group is ultra uniformizable. Secondly, starting with an approach space, and its natural neighborhood system on a group, we characterize the resulting neighborhood approach group. Finally, we show that the category of ultra-approach-Cauchy group is a topological category, and more importantly, we show that the category of ultra-approach -Cauchy groups and the category of strongly normal limit groups are isomorphic.
A Numerical Method for Investigating Fractionali Volterra-Fredholm Integro-Differential Model
Authors: Syam Muhammed I. , Sharadga Mwaffag , Hashim Ishak
Published: July 2024

In this article, we investigate the fractional Volterra-Fredholm integro-differential equations. These equations appear in several applications such as control theory, biology, and particle dynamics in physics. We derive a numerical method based on the operational matrix method to solve this class of integro-differential equations. We prove the existence and uniqueness of the ex-act solution. Additionally, we demonstrate the uniform convergence of the numerical solutions to the exact solution. We present several numerical examples to show the numerical efficiency of the proposed method. In the first example, we choose a linear problem and find that the approximate solution converges to the exact solution when the number of block pulse functions is very large. In the next two examples, we consider the nonlinear case and compute the L2-local truncation error since exact solutions are not available. The error was of order 10−12. Furthermore, we sketch the graph of the approximate solutions for different values of the fractional derivative to observe the influence of the fractional derivative on the profile of the solutions. Theoretical and numerical results show that the proposed method is accurate and can be applied to other nonlinear problems in science.

Abstract
The food enzyme pullulanase (pullulan 6‐α‐glucanohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.41) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Pullulanibacillus naganoensis strain AE‐PL by Amano Enzyme Inc. A safety evaluation of this food enzyme was made previously, in which EFSA concluded that this food enzyme did not give rise to safety concerns when used in one food manufacturing process. Subsequently, the applicant has requested to extend its use to include seven additional processes and to revise the previous use level. In this assessment, EFSA updated the safety evaluation of this food enzyme when used in a total of eight food manufacturing processes. As the food enzyme‐total organic solids (TOS) are not carried into the final foods in two food manufacturing processes, the dietary exposure was estimated only for the remaining six processes. The dietary exposure was calculated to be up to 0.004 mg TOS/kg body weight (bw) per day in European populations. The Panel evaluated the repeated dose 90‐day oral toxicity study in rats submitted in the previous application and identified a no observed adverse effect level of 643 mg TOS/kg bw per day, the highest dose tested. When compared with the calculated dietary exposure, this resulted in a margin of exposure of at least 160,750. Based on the data provided for the previous evaluation and the revised margin of exposure in the present evaluation, the Panel concluded that this food enzyme does not give rise to safety concerns under the revised intended conditions of use.

Asimismo, se recogen los datos que reporta el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía, INEGI, los cuales han cambiado en su formato de presentación en cada censo levantado. Se retoma dicha información porque es la única que se genera y se dispone en el país.  Los resultados que se obtienen es que a pesar de los años transcurridos, y que Cancún se ha consolidado como un destino turístico, continúa incrementándose el número de residentes no nativos. Se observa que las entidades federativas y países que más abonan a esta dinámica de cambiar a los flujos migratorios son cercanos a él.

Authors: Bawi Salai
Published: July 2024

In response to the increasing interest in local cultures and the preservation of  heritage, the tourism industry has evolved beyond traditional leisure and recreation activities. This evolution has led to a surge in initiatives aimed at safeguarding the cultural identity, heritage, and traditions of developing nations. In the context of chin state in Myanmar, the resurgence of tradtitional face tattoos, onece less prevelent, can be attributed to the rising tourism activity in the region. This study hightights how facial tattors have been commercialized within the tourism sector, influenced by religious and ethnic dynamics. The commodification of these facila tattoos has paradoxically contributed to the preservation of this cultural practice among the Chin tribes by imbuing it with symbolic significance in the realm of ethnic tourism. Moreover, the processes of ethnic tourism have played a crucial role in reviving indigenenous knnowledge and promoting cultural sustainability in Myanmar.By intertwining tourism initiatives with the preservation of cultural heritage, ethnic tourism has emerged as a vehicle for revitalizing traditional practices and forstering a deeper appreciation for the cultural identity of the chin tribes. This intertwining of tourism and cultural sustainability underscores the importance of ethnically engaging with local communties and traditions to ensure the authenticity and longevity of cultural heritage in the face of evolving tourism landscapes.

Selenium protects cells and tissues at the cellular level from damage caused by oxidative stress; This is especially true for heart disease, which remains the leading cause of death worldwide. We examined 77 women with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) during the menopausal transition (MT), and established a connection between hypoestrogenemia and psychovegetative disorders, hypersympathicotonia, and cardialgia. It has been established that the natural non-hormonal drug SELENBIO for women has a positive effect on the psychovegetative status and episodes of cardialgia during MHO in women with estrogen deficiency during the MT. The drug SELENBIO for women has a complex, versatile effect on the female body, helps normalize hormonal levels and ovarian function, neutralizes clinical manifestations, has a general strengthening and immunomodulatory effect, and, thanks to its antioxidant effect at the cellular level, slows down the aging process. All components of the drug are physiologically close to the human body and do not disrupt the natural processes occurring in it. The drug SELENBIO for women is highly effective with low toxicity, has a wide spectrum of action, and has a complex harmonizing effect on the body.

Osteoporosis (OP) is one of the important problems of modern medicine. OP significantly increases the risk of bone fractures. This implies the need to organize an integrated system of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of this disease. The main link in the fight against OP should be a comprehensive and systematic program to prevent and inform people about this problem. In most developed countries, various centers for the prevention of repeated fractures are organized and successfully operate. The article describes the principles of the organization of the work of the centers for the prevention of repeated fractures. The creation of these centers will make it possible to detect OP before complications develop, reduce the risk of fractures and improve the quality of life. Innovative Russian developments are discussed, which can be successfully applied in the work of such centers by specialists in various areas of medical activity.

The use of modified cassava starch and flour in this study aims to obtain the optimal concentration of modified cassava starch and flour ratio in meat sausage emulsion type products and characterize organoleptic properties in meat sausage emulsion type products using modified cassava starch and flour as fillers. The ingredients used are modified cassava starch and flour, beef obtained from the Son Haji Sonny Bandar Lampung slaughterhouse, chicken meat from PT. Ciomas Adisatwa Lampung, sausage sleeves, and seasonings used in making beef sausages. The treatment given is a ratio of starch:modified cassava flour with a ratio of 90:10; 80:20; 70:30; and 60:40. The sensory test results showed that the most preferred sensory characteristics of sausages were sausages with a modified 80:20 starch:cassava flour ratio treatment for the sensory characteristics of sausage taste and texture. As for color sensory characteristics at a ratio of 60:40; and for aroma sensory characteristics at a ratio of 70:30. From the sensory characteristics that are closer to the quality characteristics of sausages are texture and taste, it can be concluded that the most preferred sausage is sausage with the addition of starch and modified cassava flour in a ratio of 80: 20.

Authors: Herrera Morales Fabian , Torres Collazos María Camila , Rodríguez Santa Juan David
Published: July 2024

El aumento de la tasa de suicidio en los últimos años en Colombia, y en particular la región del Eje Cafetero, constituye una problemática de interés público que lleva a indagar por las diferentes lecturas que existen alrededor de este fenómeno, especialmente en jóvenes universitarios, al ser esta una población en creciente riesgo. De tal manera, el objetivo de esta investigación fue identificar las representaciones sociales del suicidio a partir de un grupo de estudiantes de la Facultad de Ciencias Jurídicas y Sociales de la Universidad de Caldas. Se trata de una investigación de corte cualitativo, realizada a partir del método de grupo focal. Una estrategia que permite el acercamiento entre el investigador y el estudio de opiniones, actitudes y estereotipos de un público interesado en dialogar sobre la vida cotidiana universitaria, sus principales problemas y, en particular, el tema del suicidio. El enfoque analítico está basado en la teoría de las representaciones sociales. En los resultados se resaltan las opiniones que tiene el grupo de estudiantes abordado acerca del suicidio, quienes lo consideran un hecho significativo que afecta a la subjetividad, a la familia, a la comunidad universitaria y a la sociedad en general. Según las y los estudiantes, se requiere mayor acción institucional en planes de acompañamiento y campañas de prevención. Finalmente, y de acuerdo con literatura especializada, se subraya que el contexto de la pandemia COVID-19 y la crisis económica mundial ha aumentado el riesgo suicida donde la desesperanza y circunstancias desintegradoras inciden en la tendencia de este comportamiento.
Populismo: la emergencia de un antagonismo estructural y convergente en la democracia
Authors: Savarino Roggero Franco
Published: July 2024

Este artículo busca abordar el fenómeno populista en su complejidad y en diálogo con diversas perspectivas interpretativas, proponiendo unas claves de lectura que superen la banalización, la descalificación, el reduccionismo y los puntos de vistas sesgados que frecuentemente ponen énfasis exclusivo sobre formas populistas de izquierda o de derecha, normalmente para denostarlas o denunciar “peligros” para la ciudadanía y “amenazas” a la democracia. La apuesta es detectar si existe una necesidad estructural para la aparición del populismo, cómo colocarlo en el espacio político y cómo elaborar una descripción adecuada para comprender el éxito que tiene en diversos contextos, deslindando los fenómenos populistas “de derecha” y “de izquierda” en sus diversas aristas y señalando las paradojas del populismo “de derecha”. La tesis que se defenderá aquí, en línea con una perspectiva de análisis minoritaria, será la de colocar el populismo en la crisis de los modelos democráticos liberales, en los que el fenómeno populista emerge para restituir protagonismo al pueblo excluido en la escena política, reintroduciendo un antagonismo fundamental sobre un eje “alto-bajo”, devolviendo a la democracia su sentido agónico y abriendo posibilidades de convergencias entre diversos populismos. Esta convergencia, que actúa como un campo gravitatorio, se facilita desde los discursos y la praxis política antielitista y antiglobalista, que atrae populismos “de derecha” hacia la izquierda.
