Relaciones y definiciones de pertenencia en los conjuntos oficialistas o bases de sustentación activa de Lula (2002-2006) y Kirchner (2003-2007): Principales argumentos
Authors: Rocca Rivarola Dolores
Published: October 2020

A partir de un marco conceptual que postula un escenario político-electoral marcado por identidades políticas fluctuantes y transformaciones en los partidos políticos, este trabajo presenta distintos argumentos acerca de las definiciones de pertenencia, las dinámicas internas y las relaciones mutuas y con el gobierno que establecían distintas organizaciones integradas dentro de dos conjuntos oficialistas: los formados en torno a los presidentes Néstor Kirchner (2003-2007) y Luiz Inácio Lula Da Silva (primer mandato:2002-2006). Dado que pensar a estas dos bases de sustentación activa y organizada en términosde partido oficial o coalición de partidos implicaría una reducción forzada de la amplia heterogeneidad de organizaciones y espacios que conformaban la órbita política organizada de ambos líderes, se propone un abordaje a través del concepto de oficialismo. A partir de la decisión de orientar el análisis a la cuestión de las definiciones identitarias y de pertenencia al conjunto oficialista para comprender su dinámica interna, se ha optado, asimismo, por no estudiar al oficialismo sobre la base de una perspectiva de funcionamiento institucionalizado de las coaliciones de gobierno –que además se perfilaría inadecuada para abordar los contextos de representación brasilero y argentino en esos años– sino guiándonos por otro propósito: el deseo decomprender en profundidad, y a través de un trabajo empírico, las características de las bases desustentación organizada que se conformaron entorno a los presidentes Néstor Kirchner y Luiz Inácio Lula Da Silva, a través del testimonio de entrevistados pertenecientes a distintas organizaciones y espacios oficialistas. Se distinguen para su análisis tres sectores dentro del conjunto oficialista: organizaciones sociales, centrales sindicales, “espacio partidario”.
Los nuevos jefes democráticos. Carlos Menem y Néstor Kirchner en clave comparada
Authors: Rodríguez Darío
Published: October 2020

A partir del rol cada vez más relevante que cumplen los líderes en las democracias contemporáneas, nos proponemos en este trabajo analizar el proceso de constitución de los liderazgos de Carlos Menem y Néstor Kirchner en clave comparada. Un interrogante central organiza nuestro trabajo: ¿cómo lograron estas figuras políticas legitimar sus posiciones de autoridad? Este proceso lo analizaremos a través de la selección de dos dimensiones. La primera comprenderá el estudio del contexto histórico institucional en el que los mismos inscribieron su acción política. La segunda supondrá el análisis de la producción y movilización de una determinada idea de comunidad política. A partir de este conjunto de elementos, identificaremos las continuidades y las rupturas que definieron el proceso de constitución de los liderazgos seleccionados desde su llegada a la presidencia hasta la realización de los primeros comicios de renovación legislativa.
Proceso de integración regional de la Unión Europea bajo la mirada sistémica. Reconfiguración política en un marco postnacional
Authors: Kaipl Esteban
Published: October 2020

¿Existe una estructura teórica innovadora para poder analizar y describir los procesos de integración regional? Nosotros intentaremos justificar una respuesta afirmativa retomando la teoría moderna de los sistemas de Niklas Luhmann y dando pasos en favor de una teoría sistémica de lo postnacional pensada para describir el proceso de integración de la Unión Europea (UE). El pensamiento luhmanniano no cuenta con un desarrollo definitivo conceptual en lo político para poder llevar a cabo esa justificación, pero nos ha dejado una estructura teórica que nos permitirá introducir nuevos elementos y reformular otros para ello. Ante el proceso de globalización, los procesos de integración regional nos exponen a una realidad en la cual la incertidumbre y el riesgo son moneda corriente; no podemos conocer la realidad toda, el mundo entero ni el futuro. Manteniéndonos en el plano descriptivo, sin pasar al normativo, no pretendemos dar fórmulas para salvar los procesos de integración ni la ciudadanía a nivel mundial, sino exponer una manera innovadora de interpretar los fenómenos sociales y, puntualmente, la transición de lo político postnacional con una teoría basada en el paradigma de la diferenciación funcional de la sociedad. Si los Estados nacionales ven surgir estructuras que los sobrepasan, es quizás tiempo de generar una nueva propuesta sistémica postnacional de interpretar lo político.
La política, entre la pena y la canción. O la licuación de la política, un legado del neoliberalismo
Authors: Ansaldi Waldo
Published: October 2020

El artículo cuestiona los fundamentos neoliberales que postulan la restauración del mercadoy su afimación como “la autoridad social” por excelencia, proposición que desplaza el ámbitoo la instancia de la decisión fial de lo político a lo social y consagra la escisión entre Estadoy sociedad. Frente a la pretensión de reducir la política a un espacio tecnocrático y la condición de ciudadano a la de mero votante (cuando no sólo mero consumidor), se reivindica la necesidad de la política como instrumento necesario para enfrentar los efectos perversos del neoliberalismo, entre los cuales destaca la fragmentación-disgregación en la base de la sociedad y la concentración en el vértice. Esa díada desestructura a los sujetos socio-políticos y, por ende, incrementa las difiultades de los mecanismos de mediación/representación.Frente a la pretensión y la intención de los neoliberales de licuar la política, de reducirla a nada, el artículo postula levantar el derecho a rebelarse, una tarea nada fácil, porque el neoliberalismo puede haber perdido batallas en materia de políticas económicas –como lo prueban varias experiencias en lo que va del siglo–, pero no ha perdido todas y menos aún la guerra. Ha obtenido un formidable triunfo en el plano de las mentalidades. Y con ellas puede regresar.
Partidos, sindicatos y movimientos sociales en Argentina y Brasil (2003- 2011): la compleja relación con gobiernos afines
Authors: Benetti Gabriela , Iglesias Esteban
Published: October 2020

El presente artículo analiza los vínculos entre partidos políticos, sindicatos y movimientos sociales en perspectiva comparada en Brasil y Argentina en el lapso 2003/2011. Para el caso de Brasil, el período abarca los dos mandatos presidenciales de Inácio Lula Da Silva; en Argentina la presidencia de Néstor Kirchner (2003/2007) y el primer período de gestión de Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (2007/2011). En ambos casos, se trata de experiencias de gobierno que se inscriben en un escenario regional de quiebre del consenso neoliberal y que tienen por protagonistas a partidos políticos ‒el PT brasileño y el peronismo en Argentina‒ con un fuerte vínculo con los sindicatos y movimientos sociales que se referencian en ellos y que, por tanto, los identifican como “sus” gobiernos. Analizamos el siempre complejo juego de las lealtades e identidades políticas que operan como límite tanto para el diseño de políticas como para las respuestas que se generan desde abajo.
Las disputas por el desarrollo: narrativas y posicionamientos de los empresarios de la Unión Industrial Argentina en las coyunturas políticas de 2008
Authors: Wyczykier Gabriela
Published: October 2020

En el presente artículo se analizan  algunas dimensiones ligadas a la problemática del desarrollo que se han reactualizado en la  Argentina en el último lustro. En  lo particular se distinguen los  posicionamientos y narrativas adoptadas por sectores de la burguesía urbana representados en la Unión Industrial Argentina (UIA),  considerando   la fertilidad que contiene pensar la relación entre modelo de acumulación, perspectivas y procesos de desarrollo, matriz política nacional-popular en el milenio actual. En este marco no solamente se han vitalizado y revitalizado los sectores sindicales y del trabajo sino conjuntamente, se han incorporado en la interpelación discursiva y de práctica política  del gobierno los actores empresarios. Los posicionamientos y retóricas propiciados desde  UIA son  estudiados a partir de dos  coyunturas  políticas específicas, con fuertes relaciones entre sí: la crisis y conflicto entre los sectores rurales y el gobierno nacional en 2008, la crisis internacional que afectó a la Argentina en ese mismo año.  Ambas  coyunturas nos permiten ilustrar la manera en que este agrupamiento invocado e integrado por el gobierno  en su visión productivista del desarrollo, se fue posicionado ante el actor estatal y en sus relaciones intraburguesas respecto de  problemáticas  claves   que reenvían a cuestiones ligadas con la temática del desarrollo.
Locos, psicópatas, anormales…o de las estrategias discursivas para invisibilizar el carácter estructural de la violencia de género
Authors: Martynowskyj Estefanía
Published: October 2020

Este artículo analiza las representaciones que la prensa construye sobre las violencias contra las mujeres, poniendo el foco en la representación del agresor, para problematizar las estrategias discursivas que invisibilizan el carácter estructural de esta problemática y la presentan como un problema de los “otros”, al margen de las relaciones genéricas de nuestra sociedad. Para ello se realiza un análisis crítico del discurso de la prensa marplatense en relación al llamado “caso del Loco de la ruta”, uno de los “casos” locales más resonantes en lo que respecta a la violencia contra las mujeres, referido a una serie de asesinatos y desapariciones de mujeres, que en su mayoría ofrecían servicios sexuales comerciales, que tuvieron lugar en Mar del Plata entre 1996 y 2004.

Responsabilidad Social Empresarial y “Cuestión Social”. Aportes críticos en base a un relato de caso
Authors: Cañizares Brian
Published: October 2020

La Responsabilidad Social Empresarial (RSE) constituye una estrategia que se considera comúnmente novedosa respecto del abordaje de problemas sociales. Muy a menudo consiste enprogramas empresariales ligados a una misión caritativa y solidaria, según la cual la empresa sería capaz de posicionarse como un actor comprometido con la igualdad y justicia social.Nuestro abordaje pretende establecer algunos puntos de reflexión respecto de las implicancias de la propuesta empresarial y su significancia en el marco del capitalismo tardío, intentando problematizar la discusión y alentando a la construcción de análisis crítico-reflexivos en contraposición a las tendencias lobbistas y promocionales impulsadas por empresas y grupos económicos. A tal fin, se presenta un sintético recorrido por el contexto de surgimiento de la RSE en Argentina y se realiza un análisis de caso considerando características de los programas de una importante empresa petrolera ubicada en lacuenca del Golfo San Jorge, zona norte de Santa Cruz.
La experiencia del Congreso de la Productividad y la política de la cooperación económica durante el peronismo
Authors: Sowter Leandro
Published: October 2020

Este trabajo revisa la experiencia del Congreso Nacional de la Productividad y Bienestar Social de 1955 y rediscute algunas de sus caracterizaciones. Se argumenta que esta iniciativa no se agotó en el intento de cambiar las relaciones laborales, sino que además constituyó la culminación de una estrategia sociopolítica que apuntó, por un lado, a modificar los parámetros de interacción entre los actores socioeconómicos en el plano productivo y el lugar simbólico de éstos en la “Comunidad Organizada”, y, por otro lado, a legitimar sobre criterios de productividad la intervención económica estatal peronista. Apartir de la revisión de documentos y discursos de la época se muestra cómo este Congreso fue parte de una estrategia que, a través de un modus operandi particular, procuró que la participación de los actores socioeconómicos en el Estado redundase en una mayor efectividad de la política económica en el contexto del modelo de desarrollo industrial sustitutivo-distributivo.
La tragedia de los comunes revisitada: de la teoría formal a las formas históricas de desposesión
Authors: Saidel Matías L.
Published: October 2020

En este trabajo haremos referencia primero a la noción de tragedia de los comunes en la óptica de Hardin, según la cual los bienes comunes se hallan condenados a una sobreapropiación y depredación por parte de individuos racionales y autointeresados. Luego, comentaremos la refutación de la teoría de Hardin en sus propios términos por parte de Feeny, Ostrom y otros y nos referiremos a algunos de los modos de entender a los comunes hoy, más allá del marco de elección racional en el que fueran inicialmente considerados. Posteriormente, llevaremos dicha tragedia del plano de la teoría formal al de una teoría quetome en cuenta las relaciones de dominación que han hecho posible la privatización de los comunes, revisitando la noción de acumulación originaria. Para concluir, sostendremos que lo común debe ser entendido como un principio de acción política que conlleva responsabilidades y normas ajenas a las del capitalismo neoliberal, bajo cuyo imperio el planeta se dirige a una catástrofe ecológica, económica y civilizatoria.
Noise analysis using Tucker decomposition and PCA on spectral images
Authors: PADILLA-ZEPEDA Efraín , TORRES-ROMAN Deni , MENDEZ-VAZQUEZ Andrés
Published: October 2020

Given the improvement of Remote Sensing (RS) sensors, it has been possible to increase spatial and spectral resolution on many of them. Nevertheless, the amount of data to represent and post-process has become highly prohibitive. Therefore, the need to be able to process such huge data sets, and one of the possible ways to deal with problems is the use of compression methods, however, data loss happen if the need of data size reduction is a must. RS spectral imagery contain high quantities of redundant information along the spectral domain, thus, making possible to use compression methods effectively as for example, tensor decomposition algorithms. In Tucker decomposition (TKD), an interesting and strange phenomenon happens when spatial domain is maintained and spectral domain is reduced, as a preprocessing step of a semantic segmentation task. Under these conditions, it is possible to observe an improvement on Pixel Accuracy (PA) metric when it is compared with the same uncompressed spectral image. Therefore, this work presents a study on how noise affects the Tucker Decomposition compared with Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and its impact in semantic segmentation.
Effect of a food diet and weight gain on a fattening of sheep of the Dorper breed
Authors: LUCIO Rodolfo , SESENTO Leticia , BEDOLLA José Luis Carlos , CRUZ Ángel Raúl
Published: October 2020

In the present work we intend to evaluate the diet used in the fattening of 27 lambs of the dorper race and also measure the daily weight gains and by means of the comparison with different authors to make the decision to return or not to use said diet. The work done in order to evaluate the weight gain of 27 lambs of the Dorper breed in fattening fed with a diet based on hay of oats, alfalfa hay, ground corn, ground sorghum and chicken manure in which were found gains of 333 grams per day, thus having a final market weight of 48 kg on average, this in a period of 3 months of fattening after an early weaning of 2 months. Therefore, the decision was made that this diet based on oats, alfalfa, corn, sorghum and chicken manure generates adequate profits and therefore will be used by the producer in future fattening. The variations of the CA over time were estimated by means of a quadratic equation in the group of sheep.

Published: October 2020

The main objective of the following project was the implementation of a new teaching method for a basic level educative institution through a virtual reality (VR) teaching module. This method was carried out through virtual manuals with which the students of the academy managed to interact and perform assembly simulations, which in the future would be carried out in real conditions. The reason for using this method in an educational context is to increase the level of interest in robotics for elementary level students and to improve the Teaching-Learning process. Another of the improvements sought is the reduction of instructional time in the development of a robotics practice (assemblies of competitive robots). As a result of the application of this method, the products obtained were much more durable, achieved better performance and reduced the time to acquire knowledge.

The main objective of an automobile production plant is to deliver on time and form the orders that are received daily. These orders are not homogeneous since they involve large quantities of cars that generally belong to different models and must be painted in different colors. The car sequencing problem that takes these characteristics into account was proposed by the Renault Company in 2005 as part of the ROADEF Challenge. This problem is NP-Hard and various techniques have been proposed to solve it, from exact methods to different heuristic algorithms. This work presents a feasibility study to apply two Distribution Estimation Algorithms (EDAs) to solve this problem. In addition, three important aspects are presented: the adaptation process of the algorithms, a technique for the execution of the algorithms called the "Stepped Approach with Discard" and a methodology that involves tolerance in the substitution of the individuals. The results obtained by the algorithms are also shown. The analysis of the results shows the algorithms adaptation process and the adjustments that can be made to improve their competence with the state of art.

Authors: HARO-ZEA Karla Liliana , CONTRERAS-ALCÁNTARA Karla
Published: October 2020

The purpose of this research is to study if there is sustainable development from remittances sent to families in Puebla and Guerrero, Mexico; since remittances represent a fundamental income for families in places with high migratory intensity, hence the importance of carrying out this research. In this research, income from remittances received by families from Puebla and Guerrero was studied, as well as the difference with respect to gender and place of origin. It is an exploratory, descriptive, explanatory and transversal research. The sample was not probabilistic by 50 people in each state, so the sample is a total of 100 people. To collect the data, an instrument was applied to measure the impact of the news received, its use and benefit. The results showed that 33% of relatives of migrants based in the United States of America managed to start a business based on remittances received in Puebla and Guerrero, and there was a greater entrepreneurial spirit on the part of women. Therefore, it can be said that for Mexican migrants and their families, a route to sustainability is the sending of remittances through investment.
Classification of emotions from the recognition of facial expressions applied to the prevention of secondary Alexithymia: an analysis of the state of the art
Authors: PADILLA-NAVARRO Christian , ZARATE-TREJO Carlos , KHALAF Georges , FALLAVOLLITA Pascal
Published: October 2020

Alexithymia is a condition that partially or completely deprives you of the ability to identify and describe emotions, and to show affective connotations in the actions of an individual. This problem has been taken to different research projects that seek to study its characteristics, forms of prevention, and implications, and that try to determine a measurement for the experience of an individual with this construct as well as the responses they provide to certain stimuli. Other studies that were reviewed aimed to find a connection between the responses of subjects diagnosed with alexithymia when facing a dynamic of emotional facial expressions to recognize and their assigned grade based on the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS), a metric frequently used to evaluate the presence or absence of alexithymia in an individual. In this work, a review of the different articles that study this connection, as well as articles that describe the state of the art of the implementation of artificial intelligence algorithms applied to the treatment or prevention of secondary alexithymia is presented.

The Environment, The World System & The Muslim Scholar
Authors: Akram Ejaz
Published: October 2020

The causal link between the environmental crisis and scholarly activitiesmay seem untenable at first glance. After all, what could scholars do, onemay ask, to improve the environment? Common sense suggests that this isthe domain of environmental science and engineering, not the task ofhumanities and social sciences; scholars ought not to be occupied with howmany species are disappearing, as that seems to be the domain of biologists.If pollution is getting out of control, it must be due to the irresponsibility ofpolicy makers whose inefficiency may seem to be the cause of it.If the humanities and social science scholars venture out of theirspecializations, they will find that they have everything to do with therapidly deteriorating environment. By seeing the world holistically, theycan identify the impending environmental crisis and help save theenvironment by studying the causal factors of its destruction. Conversely,they should bear in mind that their absence from this field will leaddirectly to its further deterioration. A better future lies in the activities ofthose scholars whose efforts can help create an environment conducive tosustaining the quality of life, not with the scholars who are preoccupiedwith choosing routes to economic and political modernity that will yieldmaximum economic growth and material wealth.Shifting from economics to political science, one finds that ‘security’,a notion central to the field, has acquired a different meaning. It is notmilitary security or internal security of one or several states alone thatdefines the field, but environmental security, which is common to thewhole planet. Deforestation exists because there is a market for timber,which is not due to the needy people who want to build a shack to live in,but due to the profit seekers whose activities have become devoid of ethics.Market is supposedly apolitical but it is also unethical. The populationexplosion, which is a direct result of certain distinct developments in the.field of modem medicine, is at the core of environmental destruction. Ittook 130 years for the world population to grow from one to two billion butit will take just a decade to climb from five billion to six billion! The debate ...
Islam, World Peace, and the Discourse of Revenge
Authors: Safi Louay M.
Published: October 2020

Every time anger and frustration take over the human spirit, reason andrational thinking fade into the background. High emotions cloud minds,subvert justice, and undermine peace. In the absence of reason, newterminology takes hold. The discourse on terrorism that rages today in theaftermath of the horrific terrorist strikes on New York and Washington isripe with emotions triggered by sinister and apocalyptic attacks on unarmedand non-combatant civilians. On television and radio talk shows across theUnited States, countless self-acclaimed experts on terrorism counsel that westrike back against a host of countries suspected of supporting terrorism.Statements from the White House have been more balanced and measured,but the theme is the same: an all-out war on terrorism.Terrorism we must fight, and we must fight with determination and vigor.But for the fight to be effective, it must be carried on according to fair rules,and must aim at the real target. An effective war on terrorism requirestwo elements. First, we must have a clear understanding of the sources ofthe anger and frustration that lies at the root of global terrorism and a cleardefinition of what constitutes a terrorist act. Second, we must have a clearvision of a global society based on the universal principles of equal freedomand mutual respect. A war on terrorism that employs moral themes butadvances the narrow interests of a privileged few can bring more evil thangood, as it is likely to result in harming innocent bystanders.Judging by the discourse of revenge and war, we have a long way to gobefore true understanding and clear vision come to bear on the strategicthinking of political leaders. This puts an extra burden on intellectuals andscholars.

Current Systems in Psychology
Authors: Haque Amber
Published: October 2020

This book is about systems in psychology. A system generally consistsof theoretical propositions and their methodologies. Most systems ofpsychology, the author contends, have a theoretical orientation, but somedo not have coherence and unity. As far as methodology is concerned, somesystems use an eclectic approach, while others use a limited set of methodsin their inquiry into human behavior and mental processes. The authordefines a system as "an orderly and logical construction for dealing withdata and theories of the subject in a unified and coherent manner; it usesa set of postulates (even if implicitly) and usually a single methodology"(p. 4). The book consists of eight parts with 14 chapters. Altogether, ten major and six additional systems are described in various chapters thatare packed with not only historical perspectives but a thorough and criticalanalysis as well. Additionally, an evaluative summary of each system, itscontributions to psychology and relationship with other systems, is alsogiven.Part I covers an introduction to the systems, the historical backgroundand the logic of science. After the introductory chapter, which is anoverview of the whole book, chapter 2 presents a sketch of the olderconcepts in psychology, starting from the time of hunter-gatherers andherders to Hellenic Greeks. Together with the early and non-westerncivilizations (e.g., Mesopotamian, Egyptian, Chinese, and Indian), thischapter covers aspects of the Naturalistic Psychology of Socrates, Plato,and Aristotle. The author examines the origin of mind-body dualism duringthese stages of developments. It is pointed out that in the western world, themind-body phenomenon first appeared in the first or second century BC inAlexandria when the study of nature was abandoned. Aristotle emphasizedthe interaction of organism and environment, rather than internal factors, asde- g forces for the individual. The term "psyche" was coined afterthis period, when the intellectuals and the Christian theologians turnedinward, looking for explanations of human behavior, and this conventiondominated throughout the middle ages. Although natural sciences freedthemselves from theology, psychology remained bound to it until it got theattention of philosophy. The author says that the classical systems inpsychology until early 1960s were primarily reactions to these age-oldquestions. He also briefly explains the concept of the "Logic of Science"while describing terms like mental constructs, its typtypes, criteria, the mindbodydualism, and reductionism ...
From Wealth to Power
Authors: Sabet Amr
Published: October 2020

From Wealth to Power is a study in the social and historical dynamicscontributing to the rise and fall of essential actors in the internationalsystem. It attempts to join history with social science theory in order to shedlight on broad theoretical topics in world politics, such as the rise of newgreat powers. In so doing it seeks to add to the body of scholarship whichcombines the study of state structure with traditional international relationstheory. The particular focus is on the expansive rise of the United States,not only to world prominence, but also as a modem state. American foreignpolicy during the period 1865-1908 is examined in light of changes inthe state structure along the four major variables: scope, autonomy,coherence and capacity, touching upon that country's domestic and administrativedevelopment.

The first of the six chapters of the book poses the main questionswhich Zakaria attempts to address: "What turns rich nations into 'greatpowers?' I' "Why, as states grow increasingly wealthy, do they build largearmies, entangle themselves in politics beyond their borders, and seekinternational influence?" "What factors speed or retard the translation ofmaterial resources into political interests?", and finally, "Under whatconditions do states expand their political interests abroad?'' Such questionsvisualize, on the one hand, a strong and direct correlation between greatpowers' economic rise and fall and their growth or decline. Anomalies, onthe other hand, are explained as a "Dutch disease," or the malady whichdoes not allow "a nation of unequalled individual prosperity and commercialprowess to remain in a state of great influence and power." The latter,zakaria claims, was an American affliction during the second half of thenineteenth century. This was particularly true during the relatively longperiod of non-expansion and isolation following the Civil War (1860-64).Despite a tremendous increase in wealth, productivity and power, it was notuntil the 1890s that the US began expanding again. Zakaria considers thisto be an aberration, reflecting a "highly unusual gap between power andinterests," that lasted for some thirty years. An explanation, according tohim, would not only require a full historical account, but more so, "first cuttheories" which clarify national behavior ...
Review of Istanbul
Authors: Kalyoncu Sevim Sabriye
Published: October 2020

With the picture of the city's skyline on its cover revealing the closeproximity of the golden arches of a McDonalds to the dome and minaret ofa mosque, this book automatically takes on the assumed conflict betweenIslam and the West as the backdrop to its discussion of the globalizationof Istanbul. Recognizing globalization as the current paradigm of socialchange for third world countries disillusioned by the failure of modernization,Keyder does describe Istanbul as a global city, but more so in the senseof an historical location of opposition than a truly "important node in the*global economy." He emphasizes that the city has experienced "adifferent kind of economic globalization," with the typical global-cityperspective failing to explain its evolution and Present-day conflicts. Notonly does corruption run rampant, but defensive, localist attitudes alsoprevail in regards to issues related to the cultural change associated withglobalization. Thus, while Istanbul is recognized as having the potential forbecoming a global city, this potential, generally remains unfulfilled ...

The Internationalization of the Political Islamic Threat to the New World Order
Authors: Mohammad Abdullah Y. S.
Published: October 2020

This paper examines the potential challenge of [slam to the new world order. Since the early 1980s, Islam has been one of the most important concepts to be studied by policy makers, schol­ars, and the media. Most coverage has been dramatic and mis­leading, portraying Islam and Muslims as a threat to the new international order and its stability.' Considering this portrayal, several related aspects are discussed here, such as the recent lit­erature about Islam, the nature of the internationalization of polit­ical Islam, the western perception of Islam and lslamists, the recent changes in political discourse about Islamic revivalism, and finaJJy, the conjunction of this Islamic discourse and western global views and interests. The aim of this paper is threefold: to address the theoretical shortcomings in most of the contemporary literature written on political Islam, to revise negative western images of Islam, and to introduce an alternative and integrated approach for understanding the nature of the recent Islamic revivalism and its effects on the global society and order.
