Caracterizaciones del liberalismo argentino en el siglo XX. Un legado problemático para la democracia liberal
Authors: Losada Leandro
Published: October 2024

El artículo realiza una reconstrucción de cómo fue retratada la tradición liberal argentina a lo largo del siglo XX. El principal argumento es que críticas con inscripciones y tendencias ideológicas y políticas no sólo diferentes sino opuestas (autoritarias, de izquierda y democráticas) coincidieron en concebir al liberalismo como autoritario o conservador. Estas semblanzas, fundamentadas en parte en posicionamientos políticos de sectores liberales a lo largo de la historia argentina, fueron resultado de motivaciones políticas, es decir, de proponer un diagnóstico sobre la situación política de sus respectivos presentes a través de un uso político de la historia. El resultado de todo ello es la instalación de una pésima reputación pública del liberalismo. Y esto se considera un problema, en tanto dificulta una convergencia entre liberalismo y democracia, necesaria, como es evidente, para la democracia liberal.Palabras clave: liberalismo, democracia, pensamiento político, Argentina Characterizations of Argentine liberalism in the 20th century. A problematic legacy for liberal democracyAbstractThe article makes a reconstruction of how the Argentine liberal tradition was portrayed throughout the 20th century. The main argument is that critics with not only different but also opposite ideological and political tendencies (authoritarian, leftist and democratic) coincided in conceiving liberalism as authoritarian or conservative. These portrayals, based in part on the political positions of liberal sectors throughout Argentine history, were the result of political motivations, that is to say, of proposing a diagnosis of the political situation of their respective present through a political use of history. The result of all this is the installation of a very bad public reputation of liberalism. And this is considered a problem, insofar as it hinders a convergence between liberalism and democracy, necessary, as is evident, for liberal democracyKey words: Liberalism, Democracy, Political Thought, Argentina ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/1hxqriijd
“Nunca Más:” Usos y resignificaciones de la memoria del terrorismo de Estado en las juventudes militantes en las “nuevas derechas”
Authors: Vázquez Melina , Vecchioli Virginia
Published: October 2024

El artículo analiza las maneras en que las jóvenes generaciones de activistas de las “nuevas derechas” hacen un uso, disputan y resignifican términos y expresiones emblemáticas de la memoria del terrorismo de Estado —como “Nunca Más”— que sedimentaron y definieron las relaciones entre la democracia y el pasado reciente. Para ello se analizan dos escenas públicas llevadas adelante por estos jóvenes militantes durante el período 2020-2023: las intervenciones de la estación de subte Rodolfo Walsh y las lecturas, interpretaciones y acciones que llevaron a impugnar las medidas de Aislamiento Social, Preventivo y Obligatorio (ASPO). Las escenas muestran que estos jóvenes, nacidos y criados en democracia, encontraron condiciones de oportunidad política durante la pandemia para movilizar categorías, principios o valores, muchas veces aprendidos en la escuela para dar sentido al pasado reciente, para posicionarse tanto en relación con el pasado, como también en el presente en relación con sus opositores, adversarios y competidores. La complejidad de este trabajo político —nombrado por ellos como “batalla cultural”— invita a explorar los múltiples sentidos y usos diversos que dan a estas categorías y repertorios de movilización.Palabras clave: nuevas derechas, memoria, dictadura, activismo juvenil, Argentina Never Again: Uses and resignifications of the memory of State Terrorism within youth activists from the “new right wings”AbstractThe article analyzes the ways in which the young generations of “new right-wing” activists make use of, dispute and redefine emblematic terms and expressions of the memory of State terrorism —such as “Never again”— that sedimented and defined the relationships between democracy and the recent past. To this purpose, we analyze two public scenes carried out by these young activists during the period 2020-2023: the performances at the Rodolfo Walsh subway station and the interpretations and actions that led to challenging the measures implemented during the covid-19 pandemic. The scenes show that these young people, born and raised in democracy, found conditions of political opportunity during the pandemic to mobilize categories, principles or values used to make sense of the recent past to position themselves in the political dispute of the present in relation to their opponents, adversaries and competitors. The complexity of this political work —what they called “cultural battle”— invites us to explore the multiple meanings and diverse uses they give to these categories and repertoires of mobilization.New Right Wing, Memory, dictatorship, Youth activism, Argentina ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/tcq4r76yj

Authors: Vila Esteban Ezequiel
Published: October 2024

Este trabajo explora las primeras investigaciones de Atilio Boron en torno a la “movilización política” en Chile, llevadas a cabo en el marco de la Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales (FLACSO). En el exordio se reconstruye el contexto histórico e institucional en el cual se desarrollaron estas pesquisas, en momentos de profundas transformaciones de la sociedad chilena que repercutieron en las ciencias sociales, produciendo el pasaje de la teoría de la modernización a la teoría de la dependencia. En segundo lugar, se indaga en la trayectoria del autor, prestando especial atención a sus orígenes sociales, espacios de socialización intelectual y política durante sus años de formación de grado y posgrado en Buenos Aires y Santiago de Chile, respectivamente. En tercer lugar, se aborda su producción académica en torno a la “movilización política” chilena durante los años que trabajó como docente e investigador de FLACSO (1969-1972), dando cuenta de sus vínculos con la sociología de la modernización de Gino Germani así como de su posterior desplazamiento hacia el marco teórico marxista durante su estancia de estudios doctorales en Harvard, siendo 1975 el año de quiebre. Finalmente, las conclusiones retoman y sintetizan los aspectos más relevantes del escrito.Palabras clave: Chile, Atilio Boron, Sociología de la modernización, Sociología Marxista, Movilización Política A theoretical transition towards Latin American MarxismAnalysis of the concept of “political mobilization” in the early work of Atilio Boron (1967-1975)AbstractThis work explores Atilio Boron's first investigations into “political mobilization” in Chile, carried out within the framework of the Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences (FLACSO). In the exordium, the historical and institutional context in which these investigations were developed is reconstructed, in moments of profound transformations of Chilean society that had repercussions on the social sciences, producing the passage from the theory of modernization to the theory of the dependence. Secondly, the author's career is investigated, paying special attention to his social origins, spaces of intellectual and political socialization during his undergraduate and graduate years training in Buenos Aires and Santiago de Chile, respectively. Thirdly, his academic production around Chilean “political mobilization” during the years he worked as a professor and researcher at FLACSO (1969-1972) is addressed, giving an account of his links with Gino Germani's sociology of modernization, as well as his subsequent shift towards the Marxist theoretical framework during his doctoral studies at Harvard, with 1975 being the year of his break. Finally, the conclusions resume and synthesize the most relevant aspects of the writing.Keywords: Chile, Atilio Boron, Sociology of Modernization, Marxist Sociology, Political Mobilization ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/9yumkwb4s
Dispositivos de normalización en las inestables hegemonías provinciales de la Argentina en los años noventa
Authors: Graciosi Barrios Marcelo Alejandro
Published: October 2024

El avance de la hegemonía del capital financiero desde los años 1970, derivó en los años noventa en la Argentina en una profunda crisis que se cristalizó en un alza de las luchas sociales en provincias golpeadas por la desocupación y con dificultades para pagar salarios. Esas luchas contrahegemónicas cuestionaron los modos diversos en que la hegemonía neoliberal se ejecutaba en distintas provincias. En respuesta a dichas luchas contrahegemónicas se desplegaron dispositivos de normalización que intentaron restaurar el orden político.El objetivo del presente artículo es indagar dichos dispositivos de normalización, observar cómo operaron en estos territorios signados por protestas ligadas al agravamiento de las condiciones de vida de asalariados estatales, docentes, fracciones de clase obrera, cuentapropistas y desocupados. La hipótesis que planteamos es que la normalización se despliega en épocas de mayor enfrentamiento social. Por otra parte, dichos dispositivos se modifican e incluso emergen nuevos tipos en respuesta a las diversas formas de resistencia sobre las que intervienen.Palabras clave: hegemonía, crisis, protestas, normalización Normalization mechanisms in the unstable provincial hegemonies of Argentina in the ninetiesAbstractThe advance of the hegemony of financial capital since the 1970s led to a deep crisis in Argentina in the 1990s, which crystallized in the rise of social struggles in provinces hit by unemployment and difficulties in paying salaries. These counter-hegemonic struggles questioned the diverse ways in which neoliberal hegemony was executed in different provinces. In response to these counter-hegemonic measures, normalization devices were deployed in an attempt to restore political order.The purpose of this article is to investigate these normalization devices, to observe how they operated in these territories marked by protests linked to the worsening of the living conditions of state employees, teachers, fractions of the working class, self-employed and unemployed. The hypothesis we put forward is that normalization is deployed in times of greater social confrontation. On the other hand, these devices are modified and even new types emerge in response to the various forms of resistance on which they intervene.Key words: Hegemony, crisis, protests, normalization ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/3kxjy68bp

Published: October 2024

Objective: This study was carried out to determine postpartum depression levels and their affecting factors in women who became women after the application of assisted reproductive techniques.
Methods: The study is descriptive and cross-sectional and was conducted with mothers (n=93) who had babies as a result of treatment at the infertility clinic of Cukurova University Hospital. Research data were collected using the “Personal Information Form” and “Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS)”. In the analysis of the research data, descriptive statistics, independent samples t-test, Kruskall Wallis and Mann Whitney U test were employed.
Results: The EPDS mean score of the women in the study was determined to be 18.22± 3.22 and 94.6% of them were at risk for postpartum depression. Statistically significant differences were found between the EPDS mean score of the mothers and the gender of the baby they want to have, experiencing anxiety, and sharing problems with their spouse (p0.05).
Conclusion: It was determined that mothers who have a baby as a result of infertility treatment are at risk for postpartum depression. Although a healthy outcome of pregnancies obtained as a result of treatment is eagerly awaited by the mothers, it also poses a risk for postpartum infertile mothers.

Published: October 2024

SMA, a genetic neuromuscular disease that affects the control of muscle movement and results in severe motor disorders, is among the rare diseases. Due to the low prevalence of rare diseases and serious problems with correct diagnosis, there may be delays in diagnosis. When the studies on SMA are examined, it is known that the issues related to diagnosis are mostly emphasised, but a limited number of studies have been conducted on the current issues of patients with SMA or their caregivers. In addition to studies on treatment, it would be useful to consider the patient and his/her environment together in studies on the quality of life of patients and caregivers. Examining the concept of quality of life in SMA disease will form the basis for studies on quality of life, and at the same time, the continuity of studies on the subject will be ensured. In this sense, current issues the treatment of patients diagnosed with SMA was addressed in this study. The fact that these patients experience significant deficiencies such as respiratory impairment, malnutrition and skeletal deformity causes them to face difficulties in meeting their basic needs, especially in nutrition and toileting. These problems reduce the quality of life of patients and their relatives. Therefore, early diagnosis and providing medical, psychological, and social support to patients and their relatives will be effective in their quality of life. In this review, recommendations were made to address the current issues of SMA patients and their relatives.

The Couples’ Birth Experiences and Influencing Factors
Authors: Demirgöz Bal Meltem , Bayri Bingol Fadime
Published: October 2024

Objective: The birth experience profoundly changes couples’ lives. The husband's role in the birth experience is to provide emotional and physical support to his wife. However, complex emotions can be experienced in the first births due to uncertainties. While birth can be positive for many couples, it can also be negative for many couples. In this context, the aim of this study was to determine the birth experiences of primiparous women and their husbands.
Methods: This descriptive study included 350 couples who experienced their first birth between March 2020 and March 2021. The study was conducted in a mother-friendly hospital in Istanbul that allows spousal participation at birth. Data were collected face-to-face using a general information form and Birth Experience Questionnaire (BEQ). Data were analyzed using SPSS.
Results: The mean age of the mothers was 23.60±2.69 years. The total mean BEQ scores of the mothers and their spouses were 37.89±3.25 and 46.28±5.02, respectively (p=0.00). Couples’ birth experiences were significantly associated with birth interventions. Episiotomy, enema, labor induction, emergency cesarean section, no skin-to-skin contact, and no early breastfeeding caused an increase in the negative birth experience scores of couples (p=0.000). As the BEQ total score of the mothers increased, the BEQ total score of the fathers also increased (p=0.000, r=0.57).
Conclusion: In this study, participants had a neutral to slightly negative experience. Labor interventions were associated with a negative birth experience. During the antenatal period, both women and their spouses should receive training and support for possible interventions at birth and emotion management.

The micrographs SEM show the presence of particles with irregular shape and average particle size between 0.092 to 0.24 µm. Finally, the magnetic analysis showed that the materials obtained exhibit anti-ferromagnetic properties with ferromagnetic components.
PHOTOELECTRICAL PROPERTIES OF CdMnSe THIN FILMS
Authors:   Azerbaijan Technical University, Baku, Azerbaijan, Mehrabova M.A.
Published: October 2024

The studied semiconductor structure for photovoltaic cells is composed of SnO2-coated glass and CdMnSe thin film. A study is made by examining the photoluminescence from the surface of the CdMnSe thin film with laser power and sample temperature for an as-grown, then an air-annealed thin film and undergone CdCl2 treatment. Thin films of Cd1-xMnxSe (x=0.02) were grown on a glass substrate. The lifetime of charge carriers under pulsed illumination was determined from the kinetic decay of the photocurrent. The study of relaxation curves of nonequilibrium photoconductivity under the influence of laser radiation confirmed the presence of two recombination channels - intrinsic and impurity. Photocurrent relaxation occurs through fast and slow recombination channels. The fast relaxation time τ = 6 μs associated with the intrinsic transition and the slow relaxation time is due to impurity excitation and τ = 22 μs. The photoluminescence spectra of thin films of Cd1-xMnxSe (x=0.02) were studied. In the photoluminescence study, two maxima are observed due to donor-acceptor recombination and intracenter transition of Mn atom.
TEMPERATURE EFFECT ON THERMOLUMINESCENCE KINETIC PARAMETERS OF NANO-ALUMINA
Authors:   Institute of Radiation Problems, Ministry of Science and Education, Baku, Azerbaijan, Ahadova A.
Published: October 2024

This research explores the fundamental thermoluminescence characteristics of irradiated nano-α-alumina particles, investigating their response to varying heating rates. The study involves recording TL luminescence curves, revealing a distinct peak with a maximum at approximately 202°C. As dose levels increase, the peak consistently shifts towards lower temperatures, indicating adherence to non-first-order kinetics (b≠1). The crystallite size was calculated using XRD analysis and estimated as 40nm. To examine the impact of the heating rate on the TL glow curve and derive kinetic parameters for nano α-Al2O3, specimens were exposed to a 6 kGy dose. Subsequently, TL glow curves were documented over a temperature range from room temperature to 300°C, employing different heating rates (2, 4, 6, 8 and 12°C/s). The peak temperature of the glow peak shifts towards higher temperatures as the heating rate increases and the peak intensity continuously diminishes, aligning with TL theory. The observed decrease in TL glow peak intensity with escalating heating rates is attributed to thermal quenching, where quenching efficiency rises at higher temperatures. Normalizing maximum TL intensities to the lowest heating rate (2°C/s) reveals a substantial 22% decrease in peak intensity.
MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF DRYING PROCESS
Authors:   Belarusian-Uzbekistan InterSectoral Institute of Applied technical Qualifications,  Tashkent, Uzbekistan, Safarov J.E.
Published: October 2024

The aim of this study is to experimentally investigate the drying kinetics of common basil using a solar drying unit. The tests consist in studying the effect of constant and variable drying air temperature on the drying kinetics. In this empirical approach, we aim to determine and compare drying characteristic curves under conditions where the drying air temperature is constant or variable. Subsequently, correlations describing the drying rate will be developed, these will be used at a later stage to size and model the solar dryer. Few numerical models have been used in the literature to explain the drying kinetics of common basil, in fact, given the complexity of the transport mechanisms and the diversity of products, a single model cannot represent all situations. This justifies an experimental study in the laboratory to determine the drying kinetics of a particular product.

Published: October 2024

Introduction: personal satisfaction is related to how people see their work, as well as their attitudes towards it. This entity depends on internal and external factors to the worker. Nursing staff, due to the characteristics of the profession, find themselves in many situations. sometimes subjected to situations that cause dissatisfaction with their work environment. This study was conducted with the aim of evaluating job satisfaction in nursing workers.Methods: a descriptive, observational, cross-sectional study was conducted on 73 nurses from the Dr. Gustavo Dominguez Hospital, Ecuador. A survey was applied using a Google Forms form, consisting of 23 questions structured into the following factors: supervision exercised by their superiors; the physical work environment; material benefits; intrinsic to the work; remuneration, basic benefits, and interpersonal relationships.Results: males predominated (46.7%), 39.7% were “very dissatisfied” with personal relationships with supervisors, 42.5% were “quite dissatisfied with the physical environment”, only 4.1% were “very satisfied” with salary and career advancement opportunities, and 28.8% rated intrinsic job satisfaction as “quite dissatisfied”.Conclusions: The presence of job dissatisfaction was identified in more than half of the nursing staff surveyed, with a higher negative assessment of the physical environment and intrinsic satisfaction. The above findings could be interpreted as an indicator of poor functioning and management of services in the institution
Characterization of the use of corticosteroids in the treatment of sepsis or septic shock
Authors: Talarico Carreira Danielle , Farias Anibal Danilo
Published: October 2024

Introduction: sepsis and septic shock are currently a serious public health problem, as it is a disease with a high rate of complications and because it is one of the main causes of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). In addition, in recent decades the number of patients diagnosed with sepsis is growing every year.
Objectives: to determine whether the implementation of corticosteroids in the basic treatment of patients who are in sepsis or suffering from septic shock brings benefits or harms.
Method: this systematic review is based on a thorough search in the Medline (Pubmed) and Google Scholar databases, the analysis of the publications was chosen between the years 2010 to 2024.
Result: according to the evidence found in the 20 articles reviewed, the use of corticosteroid therapy reduces the time in some patients who are in shock, mainly those who do not respond adequately to conventional vasopressin fluids and drugs. However, it is still under discussion whether these data can be interpreted as beneficial for patients in terms of mortality. And whether the benefits are the same for septic patients given the potential risks that corticosteroids cause to the immune system and the hyperglycemia evidenced in some studies.
Conclusion: The results of the systematic review and the cohort studies analyzed suggest that there are still many disagreements on the matter, but most recommend the use of corticosteroid therapy as part of the treatment of patients with septic shock and not in sepsis

The Higher Education Institutions require emphasis on disruptive intelligent systems which includes Artificial Intelligence that challenges conventional methods with improved products and services. This study aimed to know the trend artificial intelligence in engineering education. Specifically, it aimed to know the profile of the respondents, know the level of utilization of artificial intelligence tools in engineering education, know if there is significant relationship between profile of respondents to the AI tools used in engineering education, and propose a model of artificial intelligence in engineering education. This paper used quantitative correlational methods of research. Result showed that majority of the respondents has more work experience, found that most teachers have five years or more of experience and found that in terms of educational attainment, majority of the respondents had master’s degree. Artificial intelligence tools are generally “Sometimes Utilized” in engineering education and the respondents' profiles had no significant relationship on the use of the AI technologies, which are often occasionally used in engineering education. To fully utilize AI capabilities in engineering education, the model achieved offers a number of particular actions, including institutional in-house training, awareness campaigns, research conferences, and informal information exchange.
Design of AI in leadership
Authors: Singh Khushwant , Yadav Mohit
Published: October 2024

The present research aims to demonstrate the dominance of AI-based technologies over the Leadership sector in Industry 4.0 by combining the two main industries, such as "artificial intelligence" and "leadership." Artificial Intelligence (AI) has had a notable impact on the technical and social working environment due to the growing use of AI-supported technology. In particular, to recognise and address the needs and difficulties faced by leaders in the majority of organisations. The current essay emphasises how crucial leadership is to the adoption and use of AI in business. It has been thought that a thorough examination of the literature studies now in existence would demonstrate the need for AI-supported leadership techniques in businesses. The research divided leadership into four categories: the Process of Strategic Transformation, Competencies and Qualification, Culture, and the Interaction of Human-AI.

The lack of interest of students in memorizing the Qur'an is caused by several factors, namely the lack of precise use of methods in memorizing, lack of knowledge of recitation science, limited time available, these things cause the low interest and ability of class IV students at Muhammadiyah Elementary School. 3 Pekanbaru leaders in memorizing the Koran. The low interest and ability of students in memorizing is indicated by the number of students whose memorization is still faltering, namely out of 20 students in class IV, only 4 students memorize the maximum category starting from fluency to the rules of recitation, 10 students are in the faltering category and 6 students are only Just memorize a few short surahs. This is also confirmed by the pre-test results that the researchers obtained, namely the average pre-test score of 17.5. This research was carried out with the aim of determining the increase in students' interest and ability in memorizing the Al-Qur'an through the application of the One Day One Verse (ODOA) method. This research method uses a quasi-experimental research method carried out on humans in the field of education through the ODOA method with a quantitative type of research. The data collection techniques are through observation, interviews and documentation. The research results obtained were through post-test results with a total score of 608 and an average score of 30.4. Then a comparison of the calculation and table is carried out with the calculation result having to be greater than the table. The calculation result obtained is 11.40 with a table of 2.093, meaning the calculation is > (more than) the tableThus, through the application of the ODOA method, students' interest and ability in memorizing the Al-Qur'an can be increased.

Published: October 2024

This article explores the songs of Baul Lalon Shah, a prominent figure in the classical folklore of 19th-century Bengal under British rule. Lalon's music, deeply rooted in humanism, transcends caste, religion, and social divisions, emphasizing unity, equality, and peace. As a member of the Baul community, Lalon integrated diverse religious philosophies, including Hinduism, Tantric Buddhism, and Sufi Islam, into a unique spiritual discourse centred on humanity. His songs advocate for the primacy of humanism over religious and societal binaries. Despite their profound philosophical contributions, Lalon's songs have not been analyzed using rhetorical methods thoroughly. This study seeks to fill that gap by applying rhetorical analysis to examine the humanistic philosophy embedded in Lalon Shah's works. By doing so, it aims to reveal the enduring significance of his message in Bengali society and contribute to the broader discourse on global humanism. Disseminating these insights can play a transformative role in cultural and philosophical spheres.

Domain Adaptation-Based Machine Learning Framework for Customer Churn Prediction Across Varing Distributions
Authors: Zhu Diwei , Gan Yunxiang , Chen Xiaoyang
Published: October 2024

In today’s fiercely competitive business environment, the ability to accurately predict customer churn is essential for enhancing customer retention and reducing financial losses. Traditional statistical approaches, although beneficial, often struggle to perform effectively across diverse customer data domains due to variability in data distributions. This research introduces a refined method for predicting customer churn that utilizes domain adaptation techniques to overcome these challenges. Specifically, it employs the Correlation Alignment (CORAL) method to synchronize the feature distributions between the source and target datasets, significantly improving the logistic regression model’s capacity to apply insights across various customer segments. The process involves segmenting the customer data into clearly defined clusters using the k-means algorithm, which helps pinpoint and adjust distributional discrepancies, thus boosting the model’s accuracy. Early results indicate that incorporating domain adaptation not only bolsters the model’s applicability across different domains but also drastically minimizes the covariance differences—from a substantial initial gap to nearly zero. This strategic approach demonstrates substantial potential to revolutionize how businesses anticipate and manage customer behavior, providing a more adaptable and effective framework for addressing the complex challenges of customer churn.
INTERCULTURALITY AND LANGUAGE TEACHING: EXPERIENCES IN A KOREAN COURSE
Authors: Kim Se Eun
Published: October 2024

This work aims to highlight the importance of the intercultural perspective in teaching foreign languages, based on a case study in a Korean language course based on the author's experience. The definitions of identity, difference, culture, and language, as well as their interrelationships, and how intercultural perspectives can be applied in the classroom are analyzed. The study investigates the presence of interculturality in the educational environment and how theories are practiced. It is concluded that interculturality plays an essential role in teaching foreign languages, allowing students to better understand the culture of the target language, without resorting to stereotypes, and at the same time respect their own culture as the basis of identity. The theoretical framework includes authors such as Byram, Hall, and Hanna, who discuss identity, culture, and interculturality in the context of language teaching.

O fortalecimento da agricultura familiar tem importância na redução do êxodo rural. Portanto, há necessidade de desenvolver uma visão empreendedora por parte dos habitantes rurais. Assim, a pesquisa objectiva analisar as barreiras que influenciam na transformação do agricultor do sector familiar em empreendedor rural no Posto Administrativo de Ocua, distrito de Chiúre em Moçambique. Para a colecta de dados consistiu em entrevistas semiestruturada nas comunidades de Ocua Sede, Mahipa e Samora Machel distribuídos em um número de 35, 33 e 37 entrevistados respectivamente. A base de dados foi organizada em uma planilha no Microsoft Excel. Depois importados para o Software SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) versão 25, para realizar as análises estatísticas e obter os resultados. Os resultados mostraram que os principais factores da não transformação dos agricultores familiares em empreendedores rurais na categoria “Indivíduo” foi a falta de persistência (88.6%), falta de busca de informações (83.8%), falta de busca de iniciativas e oportunidades (80%), aversão ao risco (69.5%) e fraco poder de persuasão (66.7%). Para a categoria “Ambiente”, foram a falta de treinamento em negócio (92.4%), indisponibilidade financeira (89.5%), falta de apoio do Governo (73.3%) e baixa qualidade de estradas (61.9%). Na categoria “Processo” foram a falta de segurança quando percebem oportunidades (86.7%) e falta de educação formal (81.9%). Apesar dos entrevistados afirmarem possuírem a persistência, paciência e a procurarem de informação como principais estratégias para superar barreiras enfrentadas, os mesmos não o fazem conforme se evidencia na categoria Indivíduo.
A CRIPTOMOEDA E A TEORIA KEYNESIANA: A RELAÇÃO ENTRE A TAXA DE JUROS E A MOEDA NA ECONOMIA CONTEMPORÂNEA
Authors: Hemetério Laila Corrêa
Published: October 2024

Este artigo discute o impacto das criptomoedas sobre as políticas monetárias tradicionais à luz da teoria econômica de John Maynard Keynes, com foco na preferência por liquidez, entesouramento e a relação com as taxas de juros. Keynes argumenta que a demanda por liquidez e o entesouramento afetam diretamente as taxas de juros, sendo necessária a intervenção estatal para garantir a estabilidade econômica. No entanto, as criptomoedas, por operarem de forma descentralizada e fora do controle dos bancos centrais, criam desafios para essas políticas monetárias. Analisamos como a alta volatilidade das criptomoedas e seu uso como reserva de valor afetam a circulação de dinheiro e, consequentemente, a eficácia das políticas governamentais. Além disso, o entesouramento de criptomoedas retira capital do fluxo econômico, dificultando o estímulo à demanda agregada. Concluímos que, embora as criptomoedas ofereçam uma alternativa de liquidez e preservação de valor em momentos de crise, sua crescente adoção enfraquece as ferramentas tradicionais de política monetária, representando uma complexa interação entre inovação financeira e teoria macroeconômica.
Bibliographical Connections for Semiparametric Analysis in Case-Control Studies on Gene-Environment Interactions
Authors: Wang Tianying , Liu Jianxuan , Wu Aijing
Published: October 2024

Analyzing the gene-environment interaction (GEI) is crucial for understanding the etiology of many complex traits. Among various types of study designs, case-control studies are popular for analyzing gene-environment interactions due to their efficiency in collecting covariate information. Extensive literature explores efficient estimation under various assumptions made about the relationship between genetic and environmental variables. In this paper, we comprehensively review the methods based on or related to the retrospective likelihood, including the methods based on the hypothetical population concept, which has been largely overlooked in GEI research in the past decade. Furthermore, we establish the methodological connection between these two groups of methods by deriving a new estimator from both the retrospective likelihood and the hypothetical population perspectives. The validity of the derivation is demonstrated through numerical studies.

Entre vacceos y arévacos: Cerro Tormejón (Armuña, Segovia)
Authors: Martín Vela Raúl
Published: October 2024

Localizado en el valle medio del Eresma, el oppidum del cerro Tormejón cuenta con una importante ocupación durante la segunda Edad del Hierro. Las investigaciones llevadas a cabo en los dos últimos años revelan que fue habitado entre los siglos IV y II a. C. Su posición fronteriza en el límite entre vacceos y arévacos ha dificultado su adscripción cultural. Los datos extraídos de la vocación económica del territorio, de su cultura material y de dos rituales documentados en el interior de una vivienda, parece que pudieran indicar su pertenencia al pueblo vacceo.
