Published: February 2024

Tyrimo tikslas. Išanalizuoti mokslinėje literatūroje aprašomas suaugusiųjų aknės priežastis, diagnostiką, gydymo galimybes ir jų veiksmingumą. Metodika. Literatūros apžvalga. Straipsnių  atrankai naudotos tarptautinės medicinos duomenų bazės „PubMed“ ir „ClinicalKey“. Straipsniai atrinkti vartojant reikšminius žodžius ir išanalizuoti, siekiant įvertinti aktualiausią informaciją. Rezultatai ir išvados. Suaugusiųjų aknė (angl. acne tarda, adult acne) – tai daugiapriežastinė odos liga, pasireiškianti vyresniems nei 25 metų asmenims, dažniausiai moterims. Suaugusiųjųaknės patogenezėje vyrauja folikulų epitelio hiperproliferacija, perteklinė sebumo gamyba, lėtinis uždegimas ir padidėjęs Cutibacterium acnes virulentiškumas. Suaugusiųjų aknės diagnozė patvirtinama remiantis specifiniu klinikiniu vaizdu – papulės, pustulės, mazgeliai (retai cistos) arba makrokomedonai skruostų, smakro ir apatinio žandikaulio srityse (U zona), rečiau liemens srityje. Suaugusiųjų aknė, ypač moterims, susijusi su hormonų pusiausyros sutrikimu, kuris lemia hiperandrogenizmą ir aknės formavimąsi. Tokiais atvejais ypač svarbus daugiadalykis bendradarbiavimas su gydytoju endokrinologu bei ginekologu. Suaugusiųjų aknės gydymas turėtų būti individualizuotas, atsižvelgiant į paciento ligos anamnezę, sunkumą, trukmę, prieštai taikytą gydymą, paciento gyvenimo būdą. Viena iš suaugusių moterų aknės gydymo alternatyvų – antiandrogeninį poveikį turintis diuretikas spironolaktonas. Dėl nustatyto klinikinio veiksmingumo, rekomenduojama šį medikamentą laikyti gydymo standartu.

Vėjaraupiai – tai virusinė infekcija, sukeliama tik žmogui patogeniško Varicella-Zoster viruso (VZV), pasireiškianti karščiavimu, odos ir gleivinių išbėrimu. Pirmą kartą užsikrėtus VZV, susergama vėjaraupiais ir, nors persirgus įprastai įgyjamas ilgalaikis imunitetas šiai ligai, virusas lieka nervinių mazgų neuronuose visą gyvenimą. Nors dažniausiai ligos eiga gana lengva, vėjaraupiai gali sukelti sunkias odos, kvėpavimo takų bei neurologines komplikacijas. Neurologinės vėjaraupių komplikacijos sąlyginai retos, tačiau jos yra viena dažniausių vėjaraupiais sergančių pacientų hospitalizacijos priežasčių. Vaikams dažniausiai nustatomas ūminis cerebelitas, pasireiškiantis ataksine eisena, nistagmu, dizartrija. Įprastai ligos prognozė gerybinė, tačiau retais atvejais gali likti ir ilgalaikių liekamųjų reiškinių. Vakcinacija yra patikimiausia apsauga nuo vėjaraupių bei jų komplikacijų.

En México las actividades primarias, secundarias y terciarias reportaron un incremento anual de 7.6, 4.4 y 1.7 %, respectivamente. En el primer trimestre de 2022, las actividades primarias (agricultura, cría y explotación de animales, aprovechamiento forestal, pesca y caza) reportaron un aumento anual de 7.6 %, principalmente por el comportamiento de la agricultura. Por los datos anteriores se puede observar que se tiene una tendencia en aumento de estas actividades, dado que la población del mundo también es cada día mayor. En 2020, las actividades terciarias representan el 64 % del PIB de México, seguidas por las actividades secundarias con el 32 % y las primarias con el 4 %. Estos datos son de gran importancia para el desarrollo y bienestar de México, pero por otra parte se reporta que el sector agrícola emplea a 874 millones de trabajadores en todo el mundo, lo que corresponde al 27,4 % del total del empleo mundial (estimaciones de modelos de la OIT, noviembre de 2020). Según estimaciones de la OIT, al menos 170.000, de los trabajadores agrícolas mueren en el lugar de trabajo cada año y el 14% presentan enfermedades relacionadas con sus actividades laborales. El presente trabajo tiene por objetivo el estudio de una herramienta ergonómica que coadyuve a la disminución de la probabilidad del desarrollo de enfermedades en la mano dominante en la actividad de cosecha de chícharo en la zona aledaña de Ciudad Serdán, Puebla por medio de estudios antropométricos.

Published: February 2024

This research focuses on the eastern part of the northern arm of Sulawesi to understand the geological conditions, including geomorphology, lithology, stratigraphy, and geological structure. The goal is to determine the geological history and map the geological conditions to identify potential mineral resources. The research methods include a qualitative approach through field observations such as morphology, outcrop descriptions, lithology, geological structure measurements, stratigraphic relationships, as well as an inventory of natural resources and geological disaster risks. The quantitative approach involves calculations and analyses, including geomorphological analysis, petrography, paleontology, geological structure, stratigraphy, and the reconstruction of geological history. The research results identify four geomorphological units (karst, denudational, volcanic, alluvial) and six geological units at the research site. Andesite and volcanic breccia are the oldest units dating back to the Miocene. At the end of the Miocene, uplift and subsidence formed intrusive hills of diorite and limestone. Volcanic activity ceased in the Miocene. In the Pliocene, sandstone formed due to river transport. The rock formation process continues to the present, with alluvial deposit units resulting from the breakdown of rocks around the lake. Geological structure analysis reveals fault lines with the main stress direction from northwest to southeast. Relative fault data indicates fault inclination values suggesting the main stress direction is northwest-southeast. The geological history in the research area began in the Miocene with magmatism and tectonic activities, forming andesite and volcanic breccia units. This history extends to the formation of alluvial deposit units in the present. The research provides in-depth insights into the geological history and potential mineral resources in the region, serving as a foundation for further research.

Mapping is an activity carried out by geologists to describe the types of rock that make up it, the structure and history of the formation of an area. The research method used is a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods consisting of literature study, field data collection, data analysis and processing, and research reporting. Geomorphological results of the research area consist of hill units in fault zones, intrusive hill units, and denudational hill units with little erosion. The stratigraphy is composed of the youngest to oldest units: andesite lava units, basalt lava units, and diorite units. The structure consists of a primary structure, namely tarpaulin joints and secondary structures, namely tensile joints and shear joints, which result in the main stress direction being northwest-southeast, and shearing to the left. Geological history began in the Middle Miocene from the formation of diorite intrusive rock (Tmb) which then produced Bilungala Volcanic rock (Tpmb (l)) which was composed sequentially from basalt lava which then became andesite lava. During the Pliocene period, a tectonic phase trending northwest-southeast occurred and produced types of thrust faults and left-slip faults (sinistral). The research area is an active volcanic area with intrusive and extrusive rocks which are thought to have the same source. The influence of tectonic subduction in the Sulawesi Sea is an activity that damages the research area apart from human activity.

SHIPBUILDING TENDENCIES IN THE CONTEXT OF DIGITALIZATION
Authors: Verseckaitė Ieva , Jakubavičius Artūras
Published: February 2024

Over the last few years, the new industrial revolution 4.0 has spread across industries and affected the shipbuilding industry as well. Shipbuilding based on the principles of Industry 4.0 would transform the design, production, operation, maintenance, communication and value chains of the shipbuilding industry in all aspects. In order to create new value, the ship must become smart and must be manufactured in a smart shipbuilding process. Shipbuilding as an assembly industry is reliant on international trade because a large part of the value of a ship depends on intermediate inputs that are sourced from various countries around the world. Rapidly developing technologies also bring economic changes – more technologically advanced companies could be more efficient and would occupy a larger market share in the future. In the first part of this article systematics of value chains in the shipbuilding sector is analysed the added value created by digital technologies is evaluated in the efficient value creation chain, in the second part research methods are presented – correlation-regression analysis and the SAW method, in the third part the development trends of shipbuilding are evaluated.

The DECam Ecliptic Exploration Project (DEEP) is a deep survey of the trans-Neptunian solar system being carried out on the 4 m Blanco telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile using the Dark Energy Camera (DECam). By using a shift-and-stack technique to achieve a mean limiting magnitude of r ∼ 26.2, DEEP achieves an unprecedented combination of survey area and depth, enabling quantitative leaps forward in our understanding of the Kuiper Belt populations. This work reports results from an analysis of 20, 3 deg2 DECam fields along the invariable plane. We characterize the efficiency and false-positive rates for our moving-object detection pipeline, and use this information to construct a Bayesian signal probability for each detected source. This procedure allows us to treat all of our Kuiper Belt object (KBO) detections statistically, simultaneously accounting for efficiency and false positives. We detect approximately 2300 candidate sources with KBO-like motion with signal-to-noise ratios > 6.5. We use a subset of these objects to compute the luminosity function of the Kuiper Belt as a whole, as well as the cold classical (CC) population. We also investigate the absolute magnitude (H) distribution of the CCs, and find consistency with both an exponentially tapered power law, which is predicted by streaming instability models of planetesimal formation, and a rolling power law. Finally, we provide an updated mass estimate for the CC Kuiper Belt of

Curcumin is comparable to metformin for the treatment of PCOS in rats: a preclinical study
Authors: Shannag Salam , Nuseir Khawla , Tahaineh Linda , Hananeh Wael
Published: February 2024

Background: Ploy cystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common gynecological disorder affecting between 4–20% of females worldwide. Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric (Curcuma longaZingiberaceae) is a yellow polyphenol with a wide range of pharmacological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, neuroprotective and cardioprotective properties.

Methods: Letrozole was used to induce PCOS in female Wistar rats. Curcumin, metformin, or a combination of both was given to assess their therapeutic effects. Body weight, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and glucose levels were measured after disease induction and at the conclusion of treatment. Additionally ovarian histomorphology was examined after sacrificing the animals and removal of the ovaries.

Results and conclusion: Weight was significantly reduced in the curcumin, metformin and curcumin and metformin combination groups. Testosterone was decreased, progesterone was increased, and normal ovarian morphology was restored in the three groups. Conclusions: curcumin is therapeutically effective for PCOS and is comparable to metformin.
Qalang Smangus: Successful Aboriginal Christian Anarchism in Taiwan
Authors: Burke Jon
Published: February 2024

Qalang Smangus is an aboriginal village in Taiwan which has been organised as a collective. Observing that this community is under-represented in scholarly literature in general, and anarchist literature in particular, this article describes the history and formation of Smangus, makes
a case for identifying it as an intentional Christian anarcho-collectivist community, assesses its success, and identifies its current and future challenges. The article concludes with a call to action for anarchist scholars to study Smangus further as an example of successful aboriginal anarchism.
How to Occult Misogyny and Antifeminism in the History of Political Ideas: The Case of Pierre-Joseph Proudhon
Authors: Dupuis-Déri Francis
Published: February 2024

This article offers an analysis of Proudhon's sexist and anti-feminist remarks and of the different strategies developed by his interpreters to avoid taking them seriously, in an apparent concern to defend his image as a 'great thinker'. Considering Proudhon's comments about men and
women, personal letters about his wife and daughters, as well as critical interpretations of feminists and anarchists of the time, it is possible to explain quite simply his seemingly contradictory positions for an anarchist: he was also a man – husband and father – who defended
his power, his privileges, and his masculine interests. Such a conclusion might be relevant for contemporary anarchists, since today the anarchist networks are still struggling with sexism and even sexual violence.
Over-Allocation Profits, Inefficiencies and Competition Issues: A Close-Up into the Interaction Between the EU ETS and the Steel Industry
Authors: Sanin Maria-Eugenia , Sourisseau Sylvain
Published: February 2024

Les secteurs considérés comme fortement exposés à la concurrence internationale dans le cadre du système européen d’échange de quotas d’émission (EU-ETS) bénéficient toujours d’une allocation de quotas gratuits (EUA). Nous étudions ici un des principaux secteurs bénéficiaires : la sidérurgie. À travers la mesure de l’indice de Herfindahl-Hirschman, nous constatons tout d’abord que le niveau de concentration a fortement progressé depuis 2010, qu’en réalité il n’est pas fortement exposé à la concurrence internationale. De plus, nos résultats montrent que l’entreprise ayant le plus de pouvoir de marché sur la période 2005-2018 est celle qui a obtenu le plus de quotas gratuits, captant la plupart des bénéfices liés à cette surallocation (34,87 % en moyenne). Enfin, il apparaît que le leader du marché est le moins efficace en termes d’utilisation de ressources dans la production d’acier brut, et par conséquent le moins efficace en termes d’intensité CO 2 . Ces résultats suggèrent que l’EU-ETS n’a pas réussi à fournir des incitations à la décarbonation dans ce secteur. JEL Codes: D43, L13, Q2.

We evaluated the effects of solvents with different polarities—methylene chloride (MC), methanol (MT), and hexane (HE) on the extraction of compounds from Mexican red pitaya seed oil. The fatty acid composition and the structural, rheological, and thermal properties of the different extracts were characterized. The results indicated that the highest yield of extraction was generated for MC (26.96%), as well as the greatest amount of Mono and Polyunsaturated fatty acids, while the lowest yield was for MT (16.86%). The antioxidant activity was greater in the MT treatment due to extractable compounds from high polarity. The generated extracts contained unsaturated fatty acids, mostly oleic and linoleic acids, and saturated fatty acids such as palmitic acid. The lowest solidification temperature was −6.35 ℃ for MC due to its fatty acid composition, and the degradation temperature was around 240 ℃. The viscosity is a quality parameter; the highest level was generated for the MC treatment, which was significantly different from HE and MT. The composition of the extracts was analyzed using the FT-IR spectroscopy and showed the typical characteristic of absorption bands for triglycerides with high frequency in bands 2852 cm−1 and 2924 cm−1, which indicated that the samples were rich in unsaturated and polyunsaturated acids. These results suggested that pitaya seed oil is an excellent alternative source of essential fatty acids with potential physiological benefits.

Published: February 2024

This paper explored the existence and uniqueness of a neutral fractional impulsive dynamic equation over time scales that included nonlocal initial conditions and employed the Caputo-nabla derivative (C$ \nabla $D). The establishment of existence and uniqueness relies on the fine fixed point theorem. Furthermore, a comparison was conducted between the fractional order C$ \nabla $D and the Riemann-Liouville nabla derivative (RL$ \nabla $D) over time scales. Theoretical findings were substantiated through a numerical methodology, and an illustrative graph using MATLAB was presented for the provided example.
Modeling the impact of distancing measures on infectious disease spread: a case study of COVID-19 in the Moroccan population
Authors: Lamghari Abdelkarim , Kanté Dramane Sam Idris , Jebrane Aissam , Hakim Abdelilah
Published: February 2024

This paper explores the impact of various distancing measures on the spread of infectious diseases, focusing on the spread of COVID-19 in the Moroccan population as a case study. Contact matrices, generated through a social force model, capture population interactions within distinct activity locations and age groups. These matrices, tailored for each distancing scenario, have been incorporated into an SEIR model. The study models the region as a network of interconnected activity locations, enabling flexible analysis of the effects of different distancing measures within social contexts and between age groups. Additionally, the method assesses the influence of measures targeting potential superspreaders (i.e., agents with a very high contact rate) and explores the impact of inter-activity location flows, providing insights beyond scalar contact rates or survey-based contact matrices.

The results suggest that implementing intra-activity location distancing measures significantly reduces in the number of infected individuals relative to the act of imposing restrictions on individuals with a high contact rate in each activity location. The combination of both measures proves more advantageous. On a regional scale, characterized as a network of interconnected activity locations, restrictions on the movement of individuals with high contact rates was found to result in a $ 2 \% $ reduction, while intra-activity location-based distancing measures was found to achieve a $ 44 \% $ reduction. The combination of these two measures yielded a $ 48\% $ reduction.

The system is composed of an application and a prototype machine in the form of a conveyor, which can simulate a digital twin of the prototype machine. It also transmits sensor data and error notifications to the application in real time. The designed system can serve as a prototype for implementing digital twin technology, combining IoT and AR. This makes it possible to apply the technology to machinery and production tools in various industrial sectors.
Ordonner le clergé sur le terrain. La réorganisation de la vie religieuse à Sithiu après les conciles de 816-817
Authors: Meijns Brigitte
Published: February 2024

Durant son abbatiat, l'anglo-saxon Fridogise (r. 820-d. 833), chancelier de Louis le Pieux et également abbé de Saint-Martin de Tours, réorganisa radicalement la vie institutionnelle de l'abbaye de Sithiu, qui se composait de deux noyaux religieux. Désormais, l'église Notre-Dame, située dans la ville naissante de Saint-Omer, serait desservie par trente chanoines, tandis que le monastère de Saint-Bertin, situé dans les marais tous proches de l'Aa, accueillerait soixante moines. La seule source historique décrivant les actions de Fridogise sont les Gesta abbatum Sithiensium, écrites plus d'un siècle plus tard par Folcuin, et ce moine de Saint-Bertin a dépeint Fridogise dans les tons les plus sombres. L'objectif de cette contribution est d'analyser de manière critique la description proposée par Folcuin de ce moment charnière de l'histoire de son abbaye, et d'interpréter les efforts de réforme de Fridogise dans leur contexte historique particulier, à savoir la mise en œuvre sur le terrain des règlements des conciles d'Aix-la-Chapelle de 816-817.
Antiques vierges et nouvelles normes. L’hagiographie comme discours normatif chez les bénédictines de Metz (ixe-xie siècle)
Authors: Blennemann Gordon
Published: February 2024

Cet article propose d’aborder la question de l’implication des communautés de femmes de Metz dans les mouvances de réforme en Lorraine du ixe et surtout du xe siècle et xie siècles, par le biais des récits hagiographiques et, dans une moindre mesure, historiographiques. Ces communautés sont au nombre de trois : Sainte-Glossinde, Saint-Pierre-aux-Nonnains et Sainte-Marie-aux-Nonnains. L’article part de l’hypothèse que ces récits constituent autant de contributions à une communauté discursive débattant, en contexte de réforme, de la définition de la vita religiosa féminine. Les démarches argumentatives adoptées par leurs auteurs recourent entre autres à des modèles de vie ascétique très anciens, notamment celui des vierges et matrones à vocation ascétique de l’Antiquité tardive.
Le terme « réforme » est-il adapté pour décrire les changements qui s’opèrent dans les communautés cléricales entre le ixe et le xe siècle ?
Authors: Barrow Julia
Published: February 2024

Les historiens utilisent très souvent la réforme comme cadre privilégié pour l’histoire ecclésiastique médiévale, dans les travaux qui portent sur le clergé mais également sur le monachisme ou la papauté. Il semble cependant nécessaire de se détacher quelque peu d’un usage peu réfléchi du terme « réforme » et de se pencher plus en détail sur le vocabulaire utilisé dans les sources de l’époque. C’est ce que propose de faire le présent article, qui examine les règles destinées au clergé, les textes conciliaires et les chartes rédigés entre 750 et 1100 et qui prescrivent, planifient ou justifient des changements dans les institutions religieuses. Cette analyse révèle un contraste entre la relative abondance de langage programmatique pour proposer des changements dans les communautés monastiques et le discours plus sec et pragmatique qui décrit ceux proposés au clergé – effet de contraste qui ne s’atténuera qu’avec l’émergence des chanoines réguliers au xie siècle.
Les communautés monastiques de Fontenelle-Saint-Wandrille, d’une réforme à l’autre (ixe-xie siècle)
Authors: Roche Thomas
Published: February 2024

Bien que l’image traditionnelle de la table rase découlant des raids vikings ait déjà été remise en question, la pauvreté des sources restreint notre connaissance du monachisme ancien sur le territoire de la future Normandie. Le cas de Fontenelle (Saint-Wandrille) apporte cependant un contrepoint utile, puisque l’histoire de la communauté et de ses réformes peut être étudiée dans ses propres termes, grâce aux Gesta Abbatum Fontanellensium du ixe siècle et à l’Inventio Sancti Vulfranni du xie, aux côtés de textes diplomatiques et hagiographiques. Ces deux sources présentent Anségise ou Gérard de Crépy comme protagonistes de réforme (ou de refondation) descendante. Tout en nuançant ces interprétations, l’accent est mis ici sur les processus par lesquels la communauté monastique a adapté ses idéaux et ses pratiques, et renouvelé sa tradition, derrière (et au-delà) de ses abbés.
De l’imitation à la vénération : le culte de saint Wandrille et la réforme monastique au ixe siècle à Fontenelle
Authors: Mattingly Todd Matthew
Published: February 2024

L'abbaye de Fontenelle (Saint-Wandrille) était l'un des monastères les plus grands et les plus prospères du royaume franc dans les premières décennies du ixe siècle. Cette étude examine de près deux versions de la Vie du fondateur et saint patron du monastère, Wandrille de Verdun, l'une composée vers la fin du viie siècle, l'autre dans les années 830. Cette comparaison met en évidence la transformation du monastère d'une enclave isolée destinée à une élite spirituelle et axée sur la vie ascétique, en un grand complexe liturgique au centre d'une communauté chrétienne plus large, et axé sur le culte des reliques de saint Wandrille. Il est en outre montré que la réforme de l'abbaye qui introduisit la Règle de saint Benoît au ixe siècle, ne peut être pleinement comprise en dehors du contexte du développement du culte de saint Wandrille.
Preuves ostéologiques de pratiques alimentaires anciennes : une nouvelle piste pour l’étude des réformes carolingiennes
Authors: Burridge Claire
Published: February 2024

Certaines sources textuelles suggèrent que la législation réformatrice promulguée par la cour carolingienne a eu un impact significatif sur les communautés ecclésiastiques. L’harmonisation des règles monastiques et canoniales au concile d’Aix-la-Chapelle en est un exemple. Dans le présent article, je présente quatre techniques archéologiques susceptibles d’être utilisées pour examiner les pratiques alimentaires anciennes et éclairer ainsi un aspect important de la vie des membres de ces communautés. Ces méthodes peuvent également nous renseigner sur les potentiels changements et variations entre communautés pendant cette période critique de l’histoire du monachisme. L’abbaye de Lorsch constitue à ce titre un site idéal à partir duquel intégrer à l’avenir ces techniques à la recherche.
Lo “real posverídico” del caso Cassez-Vallarta revisado por Jorge Volpi
Authors: Quintana Cécile
Published: February 2024

Una novela criminal de Jorge Volpi (2018) forma parte de las novelas sin ficción más recientes y emblemáticas de esta última década. Usando la crítica de la no ficción (Bessière, Ruffel), revisaremos cómo el escritor mexicano, desde la tradición del periodismo literario de Truman Capote, retoma el archivo judicial del tan polémico caso Florence Cassez-Israel Vallarta, acusados de secuestro e integración en la banda criminal del Zodiaco. Su muy lúcida revisión del expediente se sustenta en el concepto de posverdad (Zenetti) para resaltar la relación errática a los hechos sobre la cual se fundamentó la acusación. Más allá de este caso, abordaremos cuestiones de tipo epistemológico acerca de la manera cómo hoy ciertos discursos políticos fabrican y transmiten la verdad.
El gesto razonado. Registros del regreso de Perón a la Argentina
Authors: Torre Claudia
Published: February 2024

El artículo se pregunta por las formas de registro escrito y visual de los hechos de una escena política argentina contemporánea: el regreso del líder Juan Domingo Perón a la Argentina después de 17 años de destierro y proscripción. Se han considerado tres textos que tematizan el asunto y cuyos autores han sido contemporáneos a los hechos: un relato de no ficción, dos fotografías y una memoria testimonial. El artículo procura dar cuenta del modo en que los tres formatos horadan los propósitos de la documentación y de la investigación clásica y trabajan con desvíos, así como con tópicos y recursos de difícil clasificación.
Organismo, pedagogía y empatía: observaciones en torno a Machado de Silviano Santiago
Authors: Bogado Fernando
Published: February 2024

A partir de la lectura de Machado (2016) de Silviano Santiago, el presente artículo se propone revisar la construcción de un “yo investigador” que funcionaría como central para desplegar el proyecto iniciado por el autor en Em liberdade (1981) y caracterizado como una deconstrucción del género biográfico. La pregunta rectora de nuestra indagación es el tipo específico de relación que Santiago establece con Machado de Assis en esta novela, haciendo de esa investigación/narración un lento correrse de la deconstrucción hacia la hermenéutica gadameriana e, inclusive, la pedagogía. Por ende, la novela (romance) deriva en un trabajo cercano al registro autónomo de la literatura por su apelación al organismo y lo corporal, lo cual pondría en discusión los discursos críticos en boga en el siglo XXI en torno a la inespecificidad o hibridez de los discursos literarios.
Idioma y territorio en las narrativas del Gran Chaco: el archivo invisible de los matacos
Authors: Destéfanis Laura
Published: February 2024

El pueblo wichí-weenhayek del Gran Chaco postula una concepción de archivo que parte del trabajo sobre la transmisión oral del tesoro cultural y el bosque como soporte ampliado de comunicación, saberes y reservorio. A partir de esta reconsideración conceptual, que busca legitimar y preservar esa herencia, el trabajo analiza las estrategias utilizadas por las dos primeras ficciones de archivo que tomaron el caso wichí-weenhayek desde una aproximación a sus propios postulados: Eisejuaz (1971), de Sara Gallardo, y En el país del silencio (1987), de Jesús Urzagasti.
The State and legal otherness
Authors: Bello Hutt Donald
Published: February 2024

Is the state necessary for the rule of law to emerge? Paolo Sandro thinks it is not. I, by contrast, think it is. The reason for my disagreement can be summarised as follows: Sandro misrepresents the contractarian narrative warranting the existence of the state’s right to rule over its subjects. This leads him to conclusions potentially at odds with his concern for legal otherness and, by implication, for the rule of law. My suggestion is that there is no legal otherness, no ius constraining lex, no rule of law, without the state.

Unlike traditional ceramics composed of one or a few elements, high entropy ceramics exhibit exceptional properties such as high strength, hardness, and thermal stability. The chapter delves into high-entropy ceramics' synthesis, properties, and potential applications, highlighting their versatility in various fields. Additionally, the chapter outlines the fabrication techniques involved in producing high-entropy ceramics, including material selection, powder preparation, powder compaction, and sintering.
Teacher Candidates' Pledges to Social Justice in Teaching
Authors: Chen Linlin Irene , Shen Libi
Published: February 2024

The inequality and discrimination on race, ethnicity, social class, language use, gender, sexual orientation, religion, and culture have contributed to social justice issues in the U.S. for years. Creating an inclusive, respectful, and equitable learning environment is critical for both teachers and students in K-12 education. Do K-12 teachers understand the meaning and the importance of social justice? How will they incorporate social justice into their teaching? The goal of this chapter was to explore 34 teacher candidates' perspectives on social justice and their plans to implement social justice in teaching in the future. Significant emergent themes from the findings regarding the definitions and the implementation of social justice in teaching were presented. Recommendations for educators and future researchers were included.
Tracing Pathways to an Intersectional Framework for the Analysis of Social Inequalities
Authors: Castillo Laderas José Luis , Pozas Inés Heras , Barranquero Mónica Otaola , Llorente Thide E. , Herráez Beatriz Sánchez , Martínez-Nicolás Israel
Published: February 2024

The analysis of educational practices in higher education shows how academic discourses and practices have traditionally excluded the experiences of certain groups. As persons who hold multiple identities and have experienced the consequences of those practices, the authors of this chapter proposed how an intersectional approach may be used as a tool for addressing social inequalities and promoting social transformation by considering the people's experiences as shaped by their multiple simultaneous identities and the power structures they are exposed to. A research-action project in the University of Salamanca was conducted in order to implement an intersectional approach as a competency for the analysis of social inequalities in a set of social sciences degrees. Based on the assessment and reflections of the professors involved, some guidelines for the implementation of such an approach for educational transformation are proposed.

Computational Intelligence for Green Cloud Computing and Digital Waste Management
Authors: Dahmani Sana
Published: February 2024

Intelligent resource management across fog, edge, and cloud computing entails dynamic allocation, optimal utilization, and robust security measures. Cloud computing adopts a centralized approach to provision resources, whereas edge and fog computing allocate resources at the periphery, strategically minimizing latency. The incorporation of AI/ML algorithms has a pivotal role, enabling resource prediction for anticipating demand, detecting anomalies, and optimizing allocation efficiently. The self-organizing management aspect facilitates autonomous adaptation. Resource virtualization abstracts physical resources into flexible virtual counterparts, complemented by meticulous accounting that tracks consumption and costs. The inclusion of security-aware measures ensures protection against unauthorized access. This comprehensive approach not only enhances performance, scalability, and security but also promotes adaptive scaling and proactive decision-making. Additionally, the implementation of green IT practices optimizes resource utilization, effectively reducing environmental impact.
