Transició energètica : què és urgent? què és important?
Authors: Reventós Puigjaner Francesc Josep
Published: April 2024

La problemàtica energètica és damunt la taula i la necessitat d’una aproximació multi
disciplinària que permeti abordar-la tenint en compte la seva dimensió mundial és cada
dia més punyent. Per parlar d’energia, a més de conèixer la tecnologia, hem de tenir molt
present la ciutadania, fer un esforç humà i científic per tal d’entendre què ens demana i
actuar en conseqüència. Per produir pensament energètic necessitem experts en economia, gestió, climatologia, sociologia, sostenibilitat... i també en tecnologia energètica! L’entrellat de les interaccions entre experts d’especialitat diversa en general ja és complex i, en aquest cas potser més encara. Les dificultats que apareixen en aquestes interaccions solen fer-nos globalment poc eficaços. No interaccionem de forma òptima! Així, i malgrat els esforços de molts, el diàleg en temes de sostenibilitat energètica o global entre experts diversos és dificultós. Som davant d’un tema amb un enquadrament complex. La transversalitat ha de ser gestionada i un dels propòsits que tenim és intentar aportar una mica de llum a l’aclariment de la situació.

Modeling of the economic dynamics of an operating segment of an enterprise based on homogeneous second-order difference equations
Authors: Витинская А.В. , Захарова Я.А. , Нечаев О.Н.
Published: April 2024

неоклассическая теория производства, получившая широкое развитие в начале и середине прошлого века, в последний период не развивается столь же бурными темпами: нет ни новых теоретических результатов оценок эффективности в паре «затраты – результат», ни результатов в оценках эффективных вложений собственных и заемных средств на рынках готовой продукции, материальных факторов и перспективных технологий. В настоящей публикации авторы поднимают новую проблему, связанную с оценкой эффективности отложенных во времени инвестиций в рабочий капитал промышленной корпорации с учетом внешних и внутренних рисков. Показана и с использованием практических расчетов обоснована перспективность применения при решении этой проблемы инструментария однородных разностных уравнений второго порядка, которые до настоящего времени в экономическом анализе не использовались (авторам такого рода публикации не известны). Этот инструментарий позволяет значительно упростить модельные расчеты для случая временного лага инвестиций в рабочий капитал, например, в один производственно-коммерческий цикл и провести анализ влияния на динамику выпуска операционного сегмента таких важных эндогенных параметров, как соотношения объемов собственных и заемных средств в инвестиционном капитале и стоимости составляющих рабочего капитала корпорации.

the neoclassical theory of production, which was widely developed at the beginning and middle of the last century, has not developed at the same rapid pace in the recent period: there are neither new theoretical results in assessing the efficiency of the "input-output" pair, nor practical results in assessing the effective applications of own and borrowed funds in the markets of finished products, material factors and technologies. In the present publication the authors have raised a new problem related to the estimation of the efficiency of time-deferred investment in the working capital of an industrial corporation taking into account external and internal risks. The authors show and substantiate with the use of practical calculations the prospect of using in solving this problem the toolkit of homogeneous difference equations of the second order, which have not been used in economic analysis so far (the authors are not aware of such publications). This toolkit makes it possible to simplify considerably the model calculations for the case of time lag of investments, for example, in one production and commercial cycle and to analyze the influence of such important endogenous parameters as the volumes of own and borrowed funds in the investment capital and the values of the components of the working capital of the corporation on the dynamics of the output of the operating segment.

Authors: Чжао Ц.
Published: April 2024

инициатива «Один пояс, один путь» (ОПОП), представленная Китаем в 2013 году, в нынешнем понимании и позиционировании представляет собой весьма обширную сеть инфраструктурных проектов, которые направлены на соединение Азии с Европой и Африкой по суше и морю (соответствующие маршруты). Одним из важнейших аспектов данных разработок является задействования потенциала железнодорожного транзита. Соответствующие предпринимаемые шаги ориентированы на развитие таких сетей – в целях эффективного перемещения товаров и людей на большие расстояния. Полноценное и адекватное осмысление возможностей такого транзита в рамках ОПОП позволяет грамотно оценивать его экономические, социальные, а также геополитические последствия. Проект «Один пояс, один путь» в своей структуре представлен строительством и модернизацией железнодорожной инфраструктуры вдоль древних маршрутов Шелкового пути, соединяющих Китай с Европой, Центральной Азией и за ее пределами. Особенно подчеркивается развитие трансконтинентальных ж/д коридоров для того, чтобы облегчить торговлю и существенно расширить связи между регионами. С учётом обозначенного выше в качестве цели написания статьи автором ставится исследование проблематики и перспектив железнодорожного транзитного потенциала РФ от участия в проекте «Один пояс, один путь».

the One Belt, One Road Initiative (OBOR), introduced by China in 2013, in its current understanding and positioning, represents a very extensive network of infrastructure projects aimed at connecting Asia with Europe and Africa by land and sea (corresponding routes). One of the most important aspects of these developments is the use of the potential of rail transit. The relevant steps being taken are focused on the development of such networks in order to effectively move goods and people over long distances. A full and adequate understanding of the possibilities of such transit within the framework of the OBOR makes it possible to competently assess its economic, social, as well as geopolitical consequences. The One Belt, One Road project in its structure is represented by the construction and modernization of railway infrastructure along the ancient routes of the Silk Road connecting China with Europe, Central Asia and beyond. The development of transcontinental railway corridors is particularly emphasized in order to facilitate trade and significantly expand ties between the regions. Taking into account the above, as the purpose of writing the article, the author sets out to study the problems and prospects of the railway transit potential of the Russian Federation from participation in the "One Belt, One Way" project.
Hybridization of Data Mining and Genetic Algorithm as a way to create an effective approach for solving the routing problem at the “last-mile” stage in e-commerce
Authors: Гольцов И.С.
Published: April 2024

интернет-торговля в современном мире развивается огромными темпами. Одним из важнейших этапов логистики в этой сфере является доставка «последней мили». Для повышения ее эффективности можно применять различные средства автоматизации, создание которых обычно сопряжено с разработкой и анализом математических моделей и методов. В статье рассматривается задача маршрутизации транспорта с ограничениями на временные окна как одна из важнейших математических задач, решение которой помогает в создании автоматизированных интеллектуальных систем для оптимизации доставки «последней мили». В ходе исследования для решения задачи предлагается и программно реализуется модификация двухфазного кластерного алгоритма на основе гибридизации генетического алгоритма и техник Data Mining. Производится оценка работы алгоритма, а также сравнение результатов его работы с наилучшими известными решениями. В ходе сравнения выявляется, что алгоритм имеет перспективы применения в реальных прикладных задачах, показывает хорошие результаты по одному из рассматриваемых критериев. Кроме того, разработанный алгоритм позволяет варьировать параметры для регулировки важности критериев. Представленные в статье исследования способствуют развитию математического аппарата для создания автоматизированных систем построения маршрутов на этапе доставки «последней мили».

e-commerce in today's world is developing at a tremendous pace. One of the most important stages of logistics in this sphere is last-mile delivery. To improve its efficiency, various automation tools can be applied, the creation of which is usually associated with the development and analysis of mathematical models and methods. The paper considers the problem of transport routing with constraints on time windows as one of the most important mathematical problems, the solution of which helps in the creation of automated intelligent systems to optimize the delivery of the "last mile". In the course of the research, a modification of a two-phase cluster algorithm based on hybridization of genetic algorithm and Data Mining techniques is proposed and programmatically implemented to solve the problem. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated and its results are compared with the best-known solutions. The comparison reveals that the algorithm has prospects of application in real applied problems, shows good results on one of the considered criteria. In addition, the developed algorithm allows varying the parameters to adjust the importance of the criteria. The research presented in the paper contributes to the development of mathematical apparatus for creating automated route building systems at the last mile delivery stage.
(un)Welcomed: A Critical Analysis of Congregational Shell Nouns
Authors: Rennels Tasha R. , Gomez Denise , Gonzalez Vanessa , Rougeau Arriel , Jenkins J. Jacob ,   Religious Communication Association
Published: April 2024

Religious organizations have increasingly used the Internet to recruit and socialize new members, with the number of congregational websites in America quadrupling since 1998. Despite such exponential growth, few communication scholars have focused on congregational websites and the often ambiguous messages they convey. In this study we explored the use of shell nouns (Schmid, 2000) on more than 100 congregational websites in the major metropolitan areas of Los Angeles, St. Louis, and Tampa Bay. Results not only revealed the prevalent use of “family” and “community,” but also the way these ambiguous terms stipulated a specific set of actions in order for new attendees to become official members: (a) communal learning, (b) sustained attendance, and (c) public service. Thus, the ostensibly inclusive vernacular of “family” and “community” was actually shown to constitute an exclusionary organizational structure that marginalized anyone unable to fulfill its specific requirements.
Prophetic and Deliberative Responses to the Doctrinal Voice: A Study of the Rhetorical Engagement Between Catholic Nuns and Church Hierarchy
Authors: Mascarenhas Mridula ,   Religious Communication Association
Published: April 2024

This paper analyzes the rhetorical exchange between the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, which is responsible for safeguarding Catholic doctrine, and the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, an organization of U.S. Catholic nuns, concerning charges that the LCWR’s practices deviated from official Catholic teaching. The essay examines how each rhetorical entity addressed the other in a distinct rhetorical voice. The doctrinal genre explains the rhetorical approach of the Church hierarchy, whereas the prophetic voice and the deliberative voice illustrate how the women of the LCWR chose to respond to the censure by balancing their advocacy for a more responsive Church with their fidelity to Catholicism. I argue that although the LCWR’s rhetorical amalgam succeeded in ensuring a mutually satisfactory dialogue with the Vatican representatives, public statements about the resolution of this controversy reflect the ability of the doctrinal voice to subsume prophetic and deliberative voices, revealing an ongoing tension between the hierarchical and communal visions of the Church.

This paper explores the origins of media ecology as defined by Neil Postman. It clarifies the extent to which McLuhan and Korzybski influenced its development, and discusses specific strengths and weaknesses of the theory as a vehicle for study. Finally, this paper explores Judeo-Christian influences upon media ecology, briefly examines the place of media ecology in church history beginning with Luther, and finally offers fresh applications of Postman’s ideas to three particular aspects of the everyday practice of the Christian faith.
Public Relations Versus Propaganda
Authors: Spaulding Cylor ,   Religious Communication Association
Published: April 2024

The reign of England’s Mary Tudor has long been examined by historians for her regime’s extensive use of propaganda to attempt to convert her populace from Protestantism to Catholicism. These explorations, however, ignore the regime’s employment of other communications strategies, particularly public relations, as key components of its conversion efforts. This paper furthers the discussion of how propaganda and public relations are differentiated and examines and reinterprets the Marian government’s activities from a public relations perspective with the goal of continuing to establish a more comprehensive history of public relations and to explore the impact of public relations activities versus pure propagandistic techniques.
My 600 Pound Pilgrimage
Authors: Brummett Barry ,   Religious Communication Association
Published: April 2024

This essay studies the TLC channel reality show My 600 Pound Life as a manifestation of the religious ritual of pilgrimage. The influence of popular culture upon religion, and of religion upon popular culture, is well established. Of special interest is the study of ritual, a highly formal discourse and practice. Because of its formal nature, ritual may be found across both sacred and secular texts and practices. Discourses may perform a ritual function vicariously for an audience. When a ritual is of religious origin, it appeals to an audience’s sense of religious meanings and authority. One central ritual pattern, of religious origin but found widely in secular discourse and practice, is the pilgrimage. This essay explains the major formal components of a pilgrimage, and then using a method of rhetorical homology, identifies My 600 Pound Life as formally a pilgrimage. The ideological commitments induced in an audience through formal appeal are discussed in this particular case. The essay shows the value of looking for religious form in the secular, the value of studying pilgrimage specifically, and the value of the method of rhetorical homology.
Soil Science and Ecosystem
Authors: Tater Arham , Kaur Sarveen , Kumar Prince , Barman Swarnashree
Published: April 2024

The role of soil in the human life is indispensable. Soil remains at a central hub when nutritional requirement of the living community is concerned. In terms of ecosystem services, the soil tends to provide various services to the environment as whole. These services can be categorized under provisioning services like providing anchorage to the plants, supporting services cover taking care of nutritional requirement of plants and microorganisms, regulating services includes waste and nutrient recycling, cultural services involve protection of artifacts and heritage sites under soil. For the conception of global food security, the main thrust should be on the soil and its functional ability to support the crop requirements. Sequestering the carbon into the soil system not only reduces the concentration of greenhouse gas carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but also imparts good physio-chemical properties of the soil system. The most important challenge of the human population is to protect and manage this natural capital sustainably without hampering its production function.
Soil Degradation and Land Use Change: Challenge and Implications
Authors: Samota Rajesh , Piploda Tejpal , Dwivedi Deepak Kumar , Kumar Pradeep
Published: April 2024

Soil degradation, characterized by the deterioration and loss of soil functions, has been increasingly severe on a global scale in recent years, posing a significant risk to both Farming output and land-based ecosystems. It delineates the fundamental processes and factors accountable for soil deterioration, elucidates the factor and causal relationships, and distinguishes among naturally occurring as well as human-induced adverse impacts. Human activity and the resulting alterations in land use stand as the foremost catalyst for the hastened erosion of soil. This has extensive implications for the cycling of nutrients and carbon, land productivity, and, consequently, socio-economic conditions across the globe. This underscores the necessity of addressing these issues through a comprehensive approach that encompasses scientific research, sustainable land management practices, and policy interventions. Conservation techniques such as afforestation, reforestation, crop rotation, and reduced tillage have proven effective in counteracting soil degradation, while responsible land use planning and the implementation of zoning regulations are imperative for minimizing adverse repercussions.
Pengaruh Job Insecurity terhadap Kesejahteraan Psikologis dengan Social Support sebagai Variabel Moderator pada Karyawan Outsourcing di PT Pegadaian Area Padang
Authors: Pratama Genta Putra , Guspa Anindra
Published: April 2024

The objectives of this study are 3, namely, 1) Knowing how the level of job insecurity experienced by employees. 2) To test whether there is an effect of job insecurity on psychological well-being in employees. 3) To find out how social support acts as a moderator variable in reducing the negative impact of job insecurity on psychological well-being. In this study, researchers used the simple random sampling method for sampling from the population. With the number of samples taken around 120 people. This study uses simple linear regression techniques in the data analysis process. This technique is used to identify the influence between job insecurity and social support on psychological well-being. Based on the results of data analysis that has been carried out and the discussion as described in the previous chapter, three conclusions can be drawn from this study. First, Job Insecurity has a positive and significant effect on Psychological Wellbeing, so H1 is rejected. Second, Social Support has a significant effect on Psychological Wellbeing but has a negative distribution, meaning that Social Support has an indirect effect on Psychological Wellbeing, so H2 is rejected. Third, Social Support moderates the effect of Job Insecurity on Psychological Wellbeing, so H3 is accepted.
Electronic music as music heritage
Authors: Van Kan Mischa
Published: April 2024

In the past, many institutions of electroacoustic music positioned electroacoustic music as being the ‘music of the future’; in the first two decades of the 21st century, however, a focus on electroacoustic music’s past has grown, in particular with the aim to preserve this past. If pastness could once make electroacoustic music obsolete, it can now be valuable for electroacoustic music. Therefore, this article investigates how the view of electroacoustic music as music heritage has influenced the present understanding of this kind of music at Elektronmusikstudion (EMS) in Stockholm, Sweden. By analyzing the stages through which electroacoustic music at EMS has become heritage and by conducting and analysing qualitative interviews with composers/sound artists working at EMS, this article explores electroacoustic music as heritage. Furthermore, it investigates the possible effects this understanding of electroacoustic music has on artists’ practices and reflections. The main conclusion is that the institutional history of electroacoustic music influences how it is regarded as music heritage. Furthermore, understanding electroacoustic music as heritage allows various people involved at EMS to reflect on its past, and it becomes clear that this past can influence artistic choices. At the same time, these reflections contribute to creating a many-faceted history of electronic music rather than maintaining a history with a single grand narrative.
Wilhelm Stenhammar
Authors: Rotter-Broman Signe
Published: April 2024

Wilhelm Stenhammar’s contributions to Swedish musical life around 1900 are widely acknowledged. But his activities stretched well beyond the Swedish borders. The present article approaches Stenhammar from a transnational perspective, placing him in the broader context of European musical modernism around 1900. Following a clarification of the use of the terms ‘modernity’ and ‘modernism’ in the light of recent research on modernism in music, Stenhammar’s identity as a European modernist is discussed with special focus on Copenhagen and Berlin. Stenhammar’s compositional strategies in the finale of his String Quartet no. 3 op. 18 in F major are then analysed in terms of musical self-reflection, offering a new perspective on his compositional agency with a wealth of musical traditions at his disposal. At a time when travelling across borders by steam train had become a common part of modern life, transcultural interconnectedness seems to be a common framework for musicians to identify as modern composers.
Keywords: Wilhelm Stenhammar, Henrik Hennings, Louis Glass, modernism, modernity, music analysis, self-reflection, European music historiography.
The Post-war Power Station and the Persistence of an English Landscape Tradition
Authors: Waites Ian
Published: April 2024

This chapter will examine the aesthetics of the design, arrangement and siting of two post-war power stations: West Burton, which was built on the Nottinghamshire-Lincolnshire border between 1961 and 1969, and Didcot in Oxfordshire, which was completed in 1970. It will firstly consider the manner in which West Burton was designed as an attempt to ‘naturalise’ this modern, but otherwise quite alien, development within the surrounding lowland countryside. From there, the chapter will go on to argue that the design of West Burton, and the way it was represented in journals like The Architectural Review was defined by a working awareness of the traditions and principles of eighteenth-century Picturesque theory and of the modernist revival of those ideas – specifically Nikolaus Pevsner’s belief that the aesthetic potential of functional building planning should especially be conditioned by an attention to site and viewpoint. It will then be seen how Didcot was pictorially organised with respect to surrounding historical landscape features, and how this was reflective of a postwar ‘neo-romantic’ notion that past, present, and future could coalesce in the English countryside.
Introduction: Current Relevance and Future Potential of South-eastern Europe in Palaeolithic Research
Authors: Ruiz-Redondo Aitor , Davies William
Published: April 2024

The Balkan Peninsula has acted as a crossroads between Asia and Europe throughout human history. Different waves of prehistoric human migration passed through this territory over time (Homo erectus, Homo heidelbergensis, Homo neanderthalensis, Homo sapiens, early farmers…). Probably this important role boosted the early archaeological explorations in the area, and, perhaps, is still behind the recent ‘blossoming’ of research projects and key discoveries. Nevertheless, South-eastern Europe was more than a mere ‘corridor’ for some prehistoric groups, who made this area their home. The exceptional nature of a number of sites and discoveries points to this fact. In this introduction, we summarise the history of Palaeolithic research from the early discoveries in the 19th century to the latest breakthroughs. The latest developments and the archaeological potential of this territory anticipate a promising future for Early Prehistoric research in South-eastern Europe.
Lower Palaeolithic Settlement of the Balkans: Evidence from Caves and Open-air Sites
Authors: Mihailović Dušan
Published: April 2024

It is assumed that the Balkan Peninsula may have represented a major migratory corridor and the area where hominin groups initially adapted to the ecological conditions of the temperate climate during the Early and Middle Pleistocene. Until recently, these ideas could only be assessed hypothetically, due to the very small number of identified archaeological sites. This situation changed with discoveries of sites in the Lower Danube (Kozarnika, Dealul Guran), Aegean (Kokkinopilos, Marathousa 1, Rodafnidia) and Central Balkan (Balanica Cave Complex) regions, which presented artefacts in stratigraphic contexts, most of them well-dated. In addition to these sites, a large number of Lower and Middle Palaeolithic surface lithic scatters have been recorded in the Central and Southern Balkans. Concentrations of finds were recorded on the highest river terraces and in the vicinity of mineral deposits. Recent research provides preliminary insights into the cultural, demographic and behavioural changes in the Lower Palaeolithic of South-eastern Europe, the issues of the Lower to Middle Palaeolithic transition, and the connections with Anatolia and the Middle East. It has been established that there is great potential for research directed towards the identification of Lower Palaeolithic sites in fluvial and lacustrine geological settings.
The Middle Palaeolithic of South-eastern Europe
Authors: Karavanić Ivor , Banda Marko
Published: April 2024

This chapter reviews the Middle Palaeolithic of South-eastern Europe in light of the results obtained by recent research. A large territory from Slovenia in the north to Greece in the south and from Croatia in the west to Bulgaria and Romania in the east is covered by the chapter. The chronology and characteristics of defined technocomplexes from MIS 7 to MIS 3 are presented and discussed in their functional and environmental context. Examples of these technocomplexes include the so-called South-eastern European (Balkan) Charentian, so-called Micromousterian as both Charentian and a kind of Denticulate Mousterian, Typical Mousterian with Levallois technology and often with bifacial points and other industrial variants that appeared in the region during this period. We primarily consider aspects of technology, typology and stone raw-material procurement in chronological and regional context, but also included are aspects of palaeoecology and other patterns in our interpretations.
Between the Aegean and the Adriatic: The Balkan Palaeolithic and the Sea
Authors: Galanidou Nena , Papoulia Christina
Published: April 2024

Focusing on the southern tip of the Balkan Peninsula, this chapter discusses the paradigm shift towards an archaeology that incorporates the Quaternary Sea and investigates the profound effect of the fluctuating sea-levels on (a) Palaeolithic hunter gatherers and (b) archaeological visibility. It examines the sea as a resource, a water-crossing challenge and a terrestrial route to novel territories at periods of low sea-level stand. In tune with Continental Shelf Archaeology it describes two research projects in islands of the central Ionian Sea (Lefkas and the Inner Ionian Archipelago) and the north-east Aegean Sea (Lesbos) that address the ways Palaeolithic groups responded to climate and sea-level change, and their initial attempts to cross the sea or the land bridges that emerged as windows of opportunity for dispersal during times of low sea-level stands.

Endurance sports have shown prominent effects in aerobic capacity, cardio-protection, prevention or treatment of diabetic mellitus, athletic body composition and bone density. Despite of these positive effects, these sports may leads to risk factor of eating disorder. It has been found in several studies that athletes are more prone to eating disorder (ED) than the non athletic population. Thus the aim and objective of this review is to critically analyze the literature to evaluate different types of eating disorder among athletes and its impact on their performance among endurance athletes. The significance of this review is to provide information about further exploration in eating disorder athletes so that it may hopefully help clinicians and physiotherapist in planning individualized exercise programs that would be beneficial at improving outcomes in these sports person. Result suggested that antigravitational sports are at higher risk of ED when compared with endurance sports whereas endurance sports athletes are at more risk when compared with ball sports or triathletes. It has be also found out that initially ED may result in performance but later it will leads to low performance because athletes with EDs will physiological and psychological disorders.

Teste t foi realizado para verificar as diferenças antes e durante a campanha de conscientização. O nível de significância assumido foi de 5%. O presente estudo obteve autorização da UAN para sua realização. Foi observado que, antes da campanha de conscientização, os valores médios do índice de resto-ingestão foram de 10,4% (±1,7) e que, durante a campanha educativa, esses valores reduziram de forma expressiva, para 7,3% (±1,5). O número médio de pessoas que poderiam ser alimentadas com os alimentos que viraram restos antes da campanha era de 17,4(±2,6). Durante a campanha, esse valor foi reduzido para 11,7(±3,9). Percebe-se redução significativa nos valores de resto-ingestão ao longo das atividades de ação. É importante destacar que a realização de atividades sobre desperdício de alimentos deve ser contínua.

sexenio de Manuel Ávila Camacho: una mirada desde la oposición conservadora e izquierdista
Authors: Alonso Ciesas Jorge
Published: April 2024

Este texto explora la política interior del gobierno mexicano presidido por Manuel Ávila Camacho en los primeros años de la década de los cuarenta. Dicha política estuvo subsumida y supeditada por el ingreso de México en la Segunda Guerra Mundial como parte de los aliados en contra de las potencias del Eje. Se da seguimiento a las posiciones de la derecha, tanto moderada como radical, así como de algunas agrupaciones de izquierda. El gobierno avilacamachista impulsó la unidad nacional y consiguió controlar y moderar tanto a las agrupaciones de trabajadores y de campesinos, como a las instancias de la oposición.

Regresar de otra forma: Francisco Ayala y sus memorias durante la Transición
Authors: Quaggio Giulia
Published: April 2024

A diferencia de muchos otros exiliados, el retorno de Ayala a España representa un caso poco común de integración y reconocimiento público. Su retorno se remonta a los años sesenta, cuando Ayala volvió a España como un observador silencioso, reanudando un diálogo liberal y cosmopolita con el interior del país y los jóvenes antifranquistas. Ayala evitó cualquier juicio político y durante los años de Transición, sin embargo, no renunció a intervenir en la vida intelectual del país en una etapa crucial de cambio. Este artículo ilustra las diferentes formas a través de las cuales el exiliado Ayala dió difusión a sus ideas sobre el proceso de democratización y explica las razones por las que esta actitud resultó exitosa con respecto a las posturas de los otros exiliados. Además durante la Transición sus memorias Recuerdos y Olvidos representan un caso ejemplar de tratamiento público del pasado por parte de un republicano exiliado que juzgó racional y positivo el proceso español de normalización democrática.

Interaction with sound-producing Objects in Preschool: Reflections based on the Phenomenology of Alfred Schutz
Authors: Partida-Valdivia José Marcos , Dreher Jochen
Published: April 2024

In this work we present some reflections about the interaction of preschool children (between 3 and 5 years old) with sound-producing objects. We implemented the phenomenological approach of Alfred Schutz, who under the influence of Edmund Husserl, elaborated his own notions concerning the Lebenswelt or life-world. We present some situations of interaction with musical instruments by children that have been documented in different research on musical education in early childhood, the same ones we use to exemplify possible analyses from the perspective of the phenomenology of the social world. We conclude with some remarks that conceive of Schutz’s theory as a relevant perspective for the analysis of children’s experiences with sound-producing objects.
Paving the Way & Translating PPH Resources towards Autismrelated Care
Authors: Suchkov Sergey
Published: April 2024

The link that might exert reliable control over morbidity, mortality and disabling rates as well as significantly optimize the efficacy of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) treatment for those who had fallen ill and for persons-at-risk is Personalized & Precision Medicine (PPM). Since there are significant molecular and neurobiological overlaps among ASD-related clinical phenotypes, tar-geted and/or smart (intelligent) treatments developed for a specific ASD subtype, may be help-ful in ASD of unknown etiology. Recent changes in diagnostics criteria have contributed to the broadening of the ASDs and left clinicians ill-equipped to treat the highly heterogeneous spec-trum that now includes toddlers and children with sensory and motor issues. And the biomarker discovery and thus the biomarker-driven drug design have the potential to tailor therapeutic inter-ventions to fit individualized ASD-related conditions in order to receive maximum benefits. This review summarizes the current advances in ASD biomarkers and discusses the potential imple-mentation of biomarkers in PPM-affiliated areas in the context of ASDs, whilst stressing the im-pact of PPM as the Science and ART and illustrating application of the different tools of the next step generation at the population, community and individualized levels.
