Vida humana, hombre y persona en Julián Marías: análisis de una transición conceptual y de sus resultados
Authors: Burgos Juan Manuel
Published: November 2024

Julián Marías's interest in the human being appears from his earliest works, but his conceptualization of this reality undergoes a complex evolution. Initially, he is thought of through the concepts of human life (Ortega) and, later, of human life and man, a period that concludes masterfully with Antropología metafísica (1970). Only from then on does the person become the central category of his anthropology, a position that is totally explicit in texts such as Mapa del mundo personal (1993) and Persona (1996). This new, more ontological perspective will allow Marías to draw on some previous intuitions, proposing, for example, with force and originality the idea of ​​the personal, the nuclear element of the person, although distinct from it, which could be identified with the who.
El sujeto humano y su interioridad. Karol Wojtya y la crisis de la antropología filosófica
Authors: Holub Grzegorz
Published: November 2024

This article discusses the concept of the human subject and its interiority as developed in modern and contemporary philosophy, focusing especially on criticisms directed at this. Hence, some far reaching modifications of the theory of the subject are presented, including the thesis that interiority is constituted by exteriority. Karol Wojtya's approach to the subject is then set out. The author of the paper tries to establish what the relationship is that obtains between these two construals of the subject, and whether Wojty?a's conception can also be subjected to such criticism. Having concluded that two quite different understandings of the human subject are in play, a possible field of dialogue between them is sketched.
Una propuesta filosófica desde el personalismo analítico strawsoniano
Authors: Ortiz Eduardo
Published: November 2024

The version of analytical personalism that can be discerned in the descriptive metaphysics of the contemporary British philosopher Peter F. Strawson recognizes the primitive status of the concept of “persons,” as opposed to Cartesian dualism and the subjectless theory of the self advanced by some in the 1930s. On the other hand, the attention that this philosopher devotes to reactive attitudes or moral feelings in a work from 1962 (Freedom and Resentment), helps not to overlook the fact that people are not only agents, but also patients. Based on these considerations, this work underlines the decisive character of love in the construction of people's identity. The logic of donation implied in loving interpersonal relationships allows for an adequate understanding of love, according to which the loving experience is not reduced to an emotion. This step forward, which involves recourse to love in the elucidation of persons from analytical personalism, presupposes the recognition of the other as a person. The article concludes by reinforcing the moral scope of this movement, through a version of the argument of consequence.
El poder, las humanidades y el poder de las humanidades
Authors: Polaino-Lorente Aquilino
Published: November 2024

The contribution of this collaboration begins with a few brief outlines of how power has been understood throughout history, in order to appeal to the need to rationalize power in accordance with ethics. The function of the humanities and their special relevance in the current “culture of suspicion” is then studied. The answer to the question of whether it is the mission of the humanities to contribute to the moral reconstruction of society is affirmative. For this purpose, and based on personalist philosophy, the author proposes a project for the new personalism, whose main lines would be the following: an idea about man, faith in God, human solidarity, love of truth and the absence of fear of freedom.
Redescubrir el vínculo de persona y verdad en la Universidad, la propuesta de Romano Guardini
Authors: Rubio Hipola Francisco Javier
Published: November 2024

This article seeks to propose the fundamental need for philosophy for man in general, and for university professors and students in particular. Starting from an analysis of the problematic situation of the current university institution and from the analysis of the structural anthropological needs that the person has in a profound sense, with the help of the personalist philosopher Romano Guardini, we will seek to establish the bases of a renewing proposal for a University in which philosophy and the humanities have a place.
Cinco pasos hacia la plenitud. El personalismo de Romano Guardini
Authors: Ascencio Juan Gabriel
Published: November 2024

The article presents the development of one of the main lines of Romano Guardini's (1885-1968) anthropology: the one that culminates in his personalist proposal of World and Person (1939). Five stages appear well linked to each other. Attention is focused on the theoretical reasons that gradually led him to adopt a clearly personalist approach in the last two stages, and the characteristics of his proposal are indicated.
El carácter fundamentante de los valores en la educación. Propuesta de un modelo axiológico de educación integral
Authors: Lopez Garcia-Torres Rocio , Saneleuterio Elia
Published: November 2024

This article aims to clarify the concept of value and its relationship with education, with the ultimate goal of developing and showing an axiological model of comprehensive education. To define the concept of value, we present the most significant contributions that have been considered to date. Likewise, based on the different philosophical positions of Axiology, we develop specific proposals for interpreting the nature of values. Given the relationship between values ​​and education, we consider the former to be the essence and foundation of the latter, so that the quality of education depends on its values. Thus, the question that research in this field should ask is what models of person and/or society underlie the educational reality that is to be analyzed, to verify whether they correspond to the model of person or society at a given time. After a pedagogical review of comprehensive education, we propose this model as appropriate for today's society and, in addition, we show and update an axiological model of comprehensive education that has already proven to be operational for the axiological analysis of different educational realities.

This study investigates the progressive shift in risk mitigation approaches within large-scale infrastructure projects, moving from traditional, reactive methods to integrated, proactive strategies that leverage advanced technology and address modern project complexities. Following PRISMA guidelines, a systematic review of 100 articles was conducted to synthesize recent research on technological innovation, organizational culture, and sustainability in risk management. Findings reveal that tools such as data analytics, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and digital twin technology enable precise, real-time risk monitoring and predictive insights, fostering greater resilience and efficiency. The study also emphasizes the importance of a strong risk-aware culture, where transparent communication and accountability, driven by leadership, play a crucial role in early risk identification and mitigation. Furthermore, the integration of sustainable practices into risk management not only mitigates environmental impacts but also strengthens long-term project resilience by aligning with regulatory and community expectations. The study highlights gaps in current risk frameworks, advocating for adaptable, hybrid models that merge traditional approaches with emerging technologies and sustainability. This comprehensive, forward-looking approach is essential for managing the complex and evolving risks inherent in today’s large-scale infrastructure projects.

Authors: Salim Saifuldeen A. , Rasheed Firas T. , Al-Deen Utoor H. , Muneem Ruba Abd Al
Published: November 2024

Throughout the world, about 70% of the total water is used for irrigation. Reports show that there will be a significant increase in irrigation requirements, as irrigation is an important factor affecting water footprint and productivity worldwide [45]. The experiment described in this article was carried out at the Agricultural Research Station, Ministry of Agriculture, Iraq, in 10 kg pots to evaluate the effects of soil moisture availability on water requirements, water productivity, and quinoa crop productivity under different irrigation treatments. These treatments maintained the soil at different levels of soil water tension (-0.05, -0.10, -0.15, -0.30, and -0.40 MPa) during the vegetative and/or reproductive periods of growth. The study analyzed water consumption, plant growth, yield components, and water productivity of the quinoa crop. The data showed that evapotranspiration decreased with increasing soil moisture tension during both the vegetative and reproductive periods of development. The maximum water productivity was consistently recorded at the lowest soil moisture tension, highlighting moisture efficiency. It was concluded that quinoa is relatively tolerant to soil moisture stress during the vegetative period compared to the reproductive period. The number of grains per ear was identified as a limiting factor for grain yield.

Optimizing Energy Efficiency in Smart Grids Using Machine Learning Algorithms: A Case Study in Electrical Engineering
Authors: Hussein Noor Al-Huda K. , Abouessaouab M'bark
Published: November 2024

Today's electrical grids are growing exponentially more complex and 21st century trends, such as the addition of renewable energy sources and increased demand elasticity, challenge traditional approaches to promoting greater efficiencies in how we consume power. This is where traditional management techniques seem to fail and results in more energy losses & therefore resources being spent on operations. The increasing penetration of renewable sources with its inherent variability, machine learning (ML), as a data-driven intelligent approach is considered to be able to control the grid. In conclusion, this paper addresses how ML techniques such as regression models, decision trees and neural networks could increase prediction accuracy, balance distribution of loads classes and improve stability for smart grids. Findings from the study show that along hospitality customers' backgrounds, machine learning algorithms can provide energy consumption predictions with better accuracy than neural networks (over 95% and for both a reduction up to 20 % on total losses in energy), coupled with additional stability requirements during peak hours which would demand an allocation between15%. Utility and consumer savings from these advances equated to 16% ROI in year-one costs by third-party renewable developers, providing a significant cost reduction These results imply that ML has the potential to revolutionize how energy management is handled in smart grids, offering a swift and cheap resolution to issues surrounding modern power system.
Basically, ML has great potential in resolving grid management issues such as demand prediction, load balancing and system stability. Yet the challenges of quality data, transparency in model explanation and security stand between the promise on this new scale; additional research is needed here.

O presente artigo tem como objectivo geral analisar o desenvolvido do processo de comunicação no município da cidade X num contexto em que se vivencia uma generalizada crise local e manifestos populares agudizados pela falta de cumprimentos de alguns benefícios esperados pela população daquela cidade. Metodologicamente, trata-se de uma metodologia qualitativa, na modalidade de estudo de caso, quanto aos objectivos, ela é exploratória descritiva e para recolha de dados utilizou-se as técnicas de entrevista semiestruturada. Para apresentação e análise de dados usou-se o método de análise de conteúdos. Como conclusão, constatou-se que não existe um plano estratégico de comunicação apenas mas faz referência de uma “maneira” de comunicação entre os gestores municipais e os munícipes, onde a informação começa no Gabinete do presidente e termina no munícipe. As reuniões feitas não são eficientes porque constatou-se que há falta de compreensão por parte da população. Contudo, segundo os resultados da pesquisa, chegou-se a conclusão de que o processo de comunicação entre as entidades locais (Município) e a comunidade do município da cidade X tem uma deficiência.
Internet e Redes sociais - Uma Análise Sobre Sua Influência na Promoção da Cidadania Empoderamento e Participação Política dos Jovens em Moçambique
Authors: De Moçambique Universidade Católica
Published: November 2024

Este estudo tem por objectivo analisar a influência da internet e redes sociais na promoção da cidadania, empoderamento e participação juvenil na política, numa altura em que Moçambique regista crescimento da população jovem. O uso da internet impulsiona a criação de actividades digitais de desenvolvimento. O Estado moçambicano enfatiza a governação participativa, através de plataformas virtuais, colocando opiniões sobre a gestão pública e outras matérias. A cidadania activa passa pelo empoderamento social, em que a sociedade tem a ciência da missão e visão do seu Estado e com isto, passa a fiscalizar e cobrar o uso correcto, justo e transparente dos recursos públicos. A metodologia desta investigação foi conduzida pelo paradigma qualitativo com recurso à pesquisa bibliográfica, análise documental e observação. A pesquisa constatou que é fundamental que os partidos políticos usem as redes sociais para apresentar politicas mais inclusivas para a juventude, de forma a permitir que estes participem e contribuam para o desenvolvimento da nação. Com uma população maioritariamente jovem e desempregada, parte dela utiliza as redes sociais para a prática de actos lesivos à integridade das pessoas, havendo necessidade de o Governo acelerar a materialização das leis contra crimes cibernéticos.
Análise dos impactos ambientais causados pela extracção de areia no Rio Chimadzi – Cidade de Tete
Authors: De Moçambique Universidade Católica
Published: November 2024

O artigo tem como objectivo geral analisar os impactos ambientais causados pela extracção de areia no Rio Chimadzi. O estudo é de natureza qualitativo, sustentada com aplicação de duas entrevistas semiestruturadas, sendo, uma dirigida aos moradores circunvizinhos do Rio Chimadzi, e outra aos exploradores de areia no mesmo local, complementado pela recolha de dados nos Serviços Provinciais do Ambiente. Os resultados obtidos pelas entrevistas foram analisados e agrupados de acordo com as semelhanças existentes. Entretanto constatou-se que a actividade de extracção da areia é feita de forma desregrada, o que exerce uma grande pressão para o ambiente. Esta actividade, gera impactos como: poluição da água causando a turbidez e perda da qualidade; poluição do solo provocando erosão e assoreamento e poluição do ar pela combustão exercida pelos motores das máquinas. Existe uma superficial consciência sobre os impactos ambientais por parte dos moradores e dos exploradores de areia no rio Chimadzi, mas parece haver ineficácia na fiscalização e tomada de medidas de mitigação dos danos gerados pela actividade.

Published: November 2024

Este artigo discute o papel dos media sociais nas actuais formas de construção de relacionamentos empresa – clientes, tendo como enfoque a comunidade de Facebook da “Tele A”. É resultado de uma pesquisa realizada através de uma abordagem metodológica qualitativa e indutiva, com o método de procedimento netnográfico, apropriado para entender práticas culturais em ambientes online. Foram recolhidos dados usando a observação participante, e através do Ncapture, do SnippingTool, da opção save as… e do recurso de copiar e colar (do Windows), para conteúdos visuais e textuais. A principal conclusão a que se chegou é que o Facebook, no quadro dos media sociais, tem tido um papel activo no desenvolvimento de relacionamentos entre a “Tele A” e os seus clientes, abrindo espaço para práticas de comunicação planeada ou iniciada e de interacção e disponibilizando diversas possibilidades de engajamento para gerar valor e construir relacionamentos, apesar de, neste caso, levantarem-se questões referentes à estabilidade e consistência na entrega de valor para os clientes. Publicações de comunicação planeada são principalmente feitas pela empresa para promoções e reforço da sua identidade e posicionamento. Contudo, os clientes usam-nas, sobretudo, como pretexto para apresentarem reclamações e pedidos de suporte técnico, o que nos remete à teoria do CRM-Social, na teoria do marketing de engajamento.

Authors: De Moçambique Universidade Católica
Published: November 2024

The present study on the “Socio-economic Integration of displaced victims caused by terrorism attack in Cabo Delgado: a look at income generation projects for self-sustainability of displaced families”, that used a mixed methods approach (qualitative and quantitative), took place between the second half of 2021 and the first half of 2022. This study involved interviews with 3,750 people who were selected based on a non-probability intentional selection criterion. The study aims to determine to what extent the humanitarian assistance provided to displaced victims of terrorism attacks in Cabo Delgado includes the implementation of projects or actions that at medium and long term, lead families to self-sufficiency. Data processing was carried out via Kobo Toolbox, SPSS and Excel. The results of the study show that: (i) most organizations providing humanitarian assistance to IDPs focus their intervention on food assistance, sanitation, shelter provision and environmental sanitation; (ii) few organizations implement projects leading to the self-sustainability of families affected by terrorism; (iii) in the areas of origin, agriculture, commerce, and fishing are the main sources of subsistence of these families; (iv) in the host regions, more than 80% of the displaced do not engage in any self-reliance activity, while about 20% engage in agriculture, commerce, and other activities. On the other hand, the study concludes that the displaced victims face the challenges of lack of land, lack of technical and financial support in order to engage in income-generating activities for their livelihoods.

La Eficiencia Energética en Ciudades Pequeñas: Estudio de Caso en la Implementación de Energías Renovables en Albacete
Authors: Romas Rodriguez Marcos Julian
Published: November 2024

Este artículo revisa la implementación de energías renovables en ciudades pequeñas, centrándose en Albacete, una ciudad en la región de Castilla-La Mancha. En el contexto actual, la eficiencia energética ha cobrado relevancia como una estrategia esencial para combatir el cambio climático. Aunque el protagonismo suele recaer en las grandes ciudades, las urbes más pequeñas también desempeñan un papel crucial en la transición hacia fuentes de energía más limpias y sostenibles. Este estudio analiza cómo Albacete ha implementado políticas y proyectos dirigidos a mejorar la eficiencia energética, recurriendo a fuentes renovables como la energía solar y eólica, con el fin de reducir el consumo de energía y las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero. A través de la revisión de diversas investigaciones y estudios de caso, el artículo examina los esfuerzos de las autoridades locales, en conjunto con el sector privado, para impulsar el uso de energías renovables. Se abordan tanto los logros alcanzados como las dificultades encontradas en la transición hacia un modelo energético más sostenible. Asimismo, se analizan los desafíos tecnológicos, económicos y sociales que afectan la adopción de estas tecnologías en una ciudad como Albacete, donde la implementación de energías limpias presenta tanto oportunidades como limitaciones. Este análisis concluye que, a pesar de los avances significativos en la implementación de energías renovables en Albacete, todavía se enfrentan importantes desafíos que deben ser superados. Para maximizar el impacto positivo de estas iniciativas, es fundamental una planificación estratégica a largo plazo que involucre de manera activa a las autoridades, a las empresas locales y a la comunidad. Solo de este modo será posible lograr una transición energética exitosa que no solo mejore la eficiencia energética local, sino que también impulse el desarrollo sostenible en la región.
Memorial symbols of historical heritage in educational projects of the European Association of History Teachers (EuroClio)
Authors: Kurbatova Anastasiya Grigorievna
Published: November 2024

The subject of the research is the role of international non-governmental organizations in the implementation of the European policy of historical revisionism in relation to the cultural and historical heritage and memorialization of symbols of the historical past. The author examines this topic through the prism of the activities of the European Association of History Teachers EuroClio, which is the initiator of a whole area of public programs (international seminars, conferences) dedicated to rethinking the significance of memorial monuments and determining the legitimacy of their preservation in public places. In the course of the analysis, the author highlighted the most large-scale projects of EuroClio in the near abroad, emphasized the contribution of individual historians to the development of new approaches of these organizations to the assessment of 20th century memorials, as well as on the methods of historical propaganda and memory policy aimed at decommunization of the countries of the "transitional period". The study is based on the method of systemic, legal and institutional analysis in combination with the chronological principle and the principle of objectivity. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that in Russian historiography this topic is covered mainly through the prism of the activities of the Council of Europe and its resolutions, while the work of European specialized organizations remains poorly studied. Based on the results of the analysis of events held by EuroClio and studies by historians, the author formulates a conclusion confirming the significant contribution of the association to the implementation of the European policy of historical revisionism and its conciliatory position in relation to state vandalism in the destruction of memorials and burials.

The object of the study is the social relations that arise in the process of implementing blockchain technologies during the transition to a new technological order. The new (sixth) technological order is a reproduction system in which digital technologies (big data, blockchain, artificial intelligence) affect management activities, industrial and economic relations. Special attention is paid to the assessment of the legal regulation of these relations as one of the conditions for the full-scale introduction of modern digital technologies. In this article, the authors set the task of formulating an idea about the conditions for the introduction of blockchain technologies as a factor in ensuring the transition of modern society to a new technological order, including the implementation of legal conditions. The research methods are general scientific and special methods, among them the use of analysis to identify key trends, patterns and problems related to the legal regulation of blockchain technologies, as well as a formal legal method to determine the features of strategic planning documents, concepts and regulatory legal acts as elements of the legal conditions for the introduction of blockchain technologies. It is noted that the introduction of these technologies requires a number of conditions, including the formation of proper legal regulation, ensuring a sufficient technological basis, creating social conditions – preparing the population for the use of new technologies, ensuring financial and political conditions for modernization. In addition, the development of human resources and the creation of organizational conditions will ensure the comprehensive implementation of these technologies in public relations. Based on the results of the analysis of legal acts, the authors conclude that the state policy and regulatory framework for the transition to a new technological order and the introduction of blockchain technologies in various spheres of life are currently being determined at the strategic, regulatory and conceptual levels. In addition, some promising areas of implementation of blockchain technologies in public relations, including in legal activities, are noted.

The paper proposes a quantum enhanced solution method based on quantum K-means for platform clustering and grouping in joint operations campaigns. The method first calculates the number of categories for platform clustering based on the determined number of task clusters, and sets the number of clustering categories in the classical K-means algorithm. By using the location information of the tasks, the clustering center points are calculated and derived. Secondly, the Euclidean distance is used as an indicator to measure the distance between the platform data and each cluster center point. The platform data is quantized and transformed into the corresponding quantum state representation. According to theoretical derivation, the Euclidean distance solution is transformed into the quantum state inner product solution. By designing and constructing a universal quantum state inner product solution quantum circuit, the Euclidean distance solution is completed. Then, based on the sum of squared errors of the clustering dataset, the corresponding quantum circuits are constructed through calculation and deduction. The experimental results show that the proposed method not only effectively solves the platform clustering and grouping problem under such action scales, but also significantly reduces the time and space complexity of the algorithm compared to the classical K-means algorithm.

Author normativities for artificial intelligence: analysis from Latin America librarianship approach
Authors: Pena Juan Miguel Palma
Published: November 2024

Artificial intelligence (AI), in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems (Wikipedia 2024) In this regard, for the present study, AI is an informative action that uses third-party information to give answers to different questions, so it can be said that it is linked with libraries by common objectives, since these are actors that implement ways to foster access to information. Therefore, it can be said that both the action and the actor are articulated to satisfy information needs. Nowadays, AI raises challenges mainly about how to legislate ownership and reproducibility of information that this technology uses and produces. Therefore, the aim of this research was to study and identify the author normativities to legislate information used and produced by AI that have been developed in Latin America. The methodology for this study was carried out through a bibliography review and quantitative methods, with exploratory, explanatory, descriptive and predictive research levels. Findings obtained indicated that Latin America is gradually advancing in reviewing and updating author normativities to legislate the information used and produced by AI.

Behavioral strategies for foraging and reproduction in the oriental fruit fly (
Bactrocera dorsalis
) are alternative options for resource allocation and are controlled by neuropeptides. Here we show that the behavioral switch between foraging and reproduction is associated with changes in antennal sensitivity. Starved flies became more sensitive to food odors while suppressing their response to opposite-sex pheromones. The gene encoding sulfakinin receptor 1 (
SkR1
) was significantly upregulated in the antennae of starved flies, so we tested the behavioral phenotypes of null mutants for the genes encoding the receptor (
skr1
−/−
) and its ligand sulfakinin (
sk
−/−
). In both knockout lines, the antennal responses shifted to mating mode even when flies were starved. This suggests that sulfakinin signaling via SkR1 promotes foraging while suppressing mating. Further analysis of the mutant flies revealed that sets of odorant receptor (OR) genes were differentially expressed. Functional characterization of the differentially expressed ORs suggested that sulfakinin directly suppresses the expression of ORs that respond to opposite-sex hormones while enhancing the expression of ORs that detect food volatiles. We conclude that sulfakinin signaling via SkR1, modulating OR expressions and leading to altered antenna sensitivities, is an important component in starvation-dependent behavioral change.
