Relações de gênero e religião: análise das práticas religiosas da Santeria em Cuba
Authors: Braffo Conde Naile
Published: January 2022

Na contemporaneidade as sociedades se caracterizam por transformações políticas, econômicas e culturais que influenciam subjetividades e relações sociais, como é o caso das relações de gênero. A religião, como parte integrante do sistema social, estabelece conexões dentro das suas estruturas, seja na construção de representações sociais, na legitimação ou na dissimulação de jogos de poder. Por assim dizer, a análise da relação entre gênero e religião em qualquer sistema religioso constitui um desafio. O presente artigo busca analisar – ou pelo menos tenta discutir –, essa relação no sistema religioso Regla de Ocha ou Santeria em Cuba. Portanto, sem a necessidade de hipótese, apresentam-se ideias que contribuem para pensar essa relação.
Direitos reprodutivos em debate: a retórica de parlamentares evangélicos/as na 54ª Legislatura para a criminalização do aborto
Authors: Costa Emerson Roberto da
Published: January 2022

O recrudescimento de intervenções baseadas na moral religiosa contra a promulgação de leis tais como a regulamentação do aborto, da criminalização da homofobia e do casamento igualitário, tanto suscita o questionamento acerca dos limites da laicidade no Brasil, quanto do processo de secularização e da fidelidade aos preceitos religiosos, bem como impedem ações - inclusive aquelas de caráter educativo – que reconheçam e favoreçam a pluralidade e a diversidade.  Não se trata de construir uma cronologia da legislação sobre o aborto no parlamento, nem discutir a pertinência ética da despenalização, mas identificar a influência do discurso religioso sobre a consolidação de direitos na contemporaneidade.
Mulheres, divindades, prostituição sagrada e religião 1RS 11, 1-13: leituras desde a hermenêutica negra e feminista
Authors: Mena-López Maricel
Published: January 2022

A narrativa de 1Rs 11,1-13 culpabiliza as mulheres por terem desviado o coração do rei Salomão, sendo elas as responsáveis diretas pela grande apostasia do rei. Assim, os excessos no seu governo, evidentes nas suas construções majestosas, no seu número elevado de mulheres, na implementação da corveia, dos impostos, do empobrecimento das minorias, do enriquecimento das elites e sua incapacidade de governar com justiça e retidão ficam relegados a um segundo plano. As mulheres, que tinham um papel fundamental como mediadoras entre os deuses e a comunidade, foram estereotipadas com as metáforas de idolatria e prostituição. Desta forma, este artigo pretende fazer uma leitura libertadora das práticas femininas do século X, bem como desmascarar os mecanismos sutis dos textos patriarcais que suplantam o poder feminino pelo dos varões circuncisos.
Dogmatismos interpelados por gênero e raça: rumo a uma espiritualidade da alteridade
Authors: Sampaio Tania Mara Vieira
Published: January 2022

A concepção das relações sociais de gênero e sua interseccionalidade com outros marcadores sociais como raça, classe, território, idade, escolarização, heterossexualidade, homossexualidade entre outros traçará o percurso da desconstrução de verdades dogmáticas no campo da religião. Desse modo, apresentará caminhos epistemológicos para pensar uma espiritualidade da gratuidade, por meio do enfrentamento das discriminações e subordinações no âmbito das relações sociais de poder. O encontro relacional em que o eu e o outro se implicam e se interpelam mutuamente os responsabiliza a viverem uma experiência ética de alteridade.

Os resultados suscitam a necessidade de repensar estratégias de cuidado em saúde de acordo com o novo contexto.
Autolesão na adolescência e a produção científica nacional: revisão integrativa da literatura
Authors: Ferreira Loraine Seixas , Chaves Gislaine , Tardivo Leila Salomão de La Plata Cury
Published: January 2022

A autolesão é um comportamento com início geralmente na adolescência e tem como característica principal lesões provocadas no próprio corpo com o intuito de aliviar as angústias, reduzir emoções negativas e, até mesmo, como uma forma do adolescente comunicar seu sofrimento, quando este não pode ser expresso de outra forma. Embora possa gerar ferimentos graves, muitos autores compreendem o comportamento autolesivo como “não suicida” por não ter a intensão consciente de morte. O interesse pelo tema da autolesão na adolescência tem aumentado nos últimos anos e, dessa forma, o objetivo desse trabalho foi realizar uma revisão integrativa de artigos produzidos sobre esse tema, provenientes de pesquisas nacionais, no período de 2015 a 2020 nas bases de dados BVS, SCIELO, PEPSIC e Portal de Periódicos CAPES. Foram encontrados apenas 12 trabalhos, os quais compreenderam a autolesão como um fenômeno multifatorial e realizada como uma forma de aliviar angústias que não podem ser verbalizadas.

Authors: Paloski Luis Henrique , Bastos André Goettems , Alminhana Letícia Oliveira , Rossi Tainá , Irigaray Tatiana Quarti
Published: January 2022

A Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms (SAPS) objetiva avaliar sintomas positivos, como alucinações, delírios, comportamento e pensamento desorganizado em indivíduos com manifestações psicóticas. O presente estudo teve como objetivo traduzir e adaptar culturalmente a escala SAPS para o português brasileiro. A construção do trabalho foi dividida em duas etapas: 1) Tradução e adaptação do instrumento; e 2) Cálculo do índice de validade de conteúdo. Participaram da pesquisa 11 profissionais com experiência na área de saúde mental. Os resultados apontaram níveis de compreensão dos itens da SAPS acima de 81,8%. Referente aos índices de validade de conteúdo, todos os tópicos apresentaram indicadores com medidas entre 0,64 e 1,00, sinalizando níveis adequados. Portanto, pode-se concluir que a escala SAPS está adequada para uso no Brasil, pois apresentou alto grau de concordância entre os avaliadores, e bons índices de validade de conteúdo. Sugerem-se novos estudos que verifiquem outras evidências de validade desse instrumento.

No presente trabalho utilizou-se da metodologia bibliográfica e exploratória, com pesquisa e revisão de bibliografia.
Życie konsekrowane a zaangażowany laikat
Authors: Młynarz Bogna
Published: January 2022

In the postconciliar Church in Poland religious life coincides with new movements and lay communities. They influence one another building together the body of the Church. This is a reality which is happening, so without deeper analyses, we can make only few reflections.Undoubtedly we can notice a significant decrease of vocations in female religious congregations. In the years 2000–2017 in Poland the number lowered by nearly 5,5 thousand sisters. The most frequently mentioned reason of this fact is a demographic decline and abandonement of Christian roots. At the same time the number of people deeply engaged in Christian life has not changed much during the last twenty years, and this is that group which is the source of new vocations. The same group is also the ground of the lay communities and movements in the Church. Despite general tendency of abandoning religious practices lay communities are developing and acting dynamically, strongly influencing contemporary evangelization.It seems, that these two phenomena: religious life and lay communi-ties should be the greatest allies for each other, because they represent the same radical style of evangelic life. They share the sense of evange-lizational needs, readiness for the mission and dedication of material goods and time for it. Thus new vocations should arise from the circles of young people originating from these communities. Why then we observe mutual distrust sometimes?New communities, who arised from the postconciliar renewal evince vitality and fresh enthusiasm, yet they lack experience, which can be seen in the consecrated life. This shows, how much consecrated life can be needed for the development of communities and how much new communities may inspire with evangelical freshness into the structures of convents. It is excellently expressed in the document of Congregation of Consecrated Life „New wine, new wineskins”, emphasizing the need of openness for the new breath of the Holy Spirit, that sometimes requires getting rid of old, crumbling structures, but protects against stagnation. On the other hand the centuries-old experience of consecrated life may help new communities to transform first enthusiasm into a true mature engagement, which does not depend on unstable emotions. Consecration of the religious and lay communities are necessary for each other and, like other forms of living Christian faith, they together are to create the Church, whose center is Jesus Christ.
Technology of Irrigation of Forage Crops in Sorgo with a Low-Pressure Drip System in the Conditions of the Kyzylordina Region

In order to obtain a high yield and to raise the level of fertility, it is necessary to systematically replenish the soil with nutrients. To create favorable conditions for plant nutrition and a high yield of agricultural crops, it is necessary to use macro and micro fertilizers in the system of measures for the chemicalization of agriculture. Macronutrients – nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium – are found in most soils, including meadow-gray soils in sufficient quantities, but their additional application increases the yield of plants. Therefore, there is no doubt that with the addition of trace elements to the soil, there will also be an increase in plant yield. As a result of the application of different doses of mikronutrients-manganese, molybdenum, zinc and copper under the cotton plant on the background of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, it was determined that the applied micronutrients had a positive effect on the productivity of cotton plants at all test doses. Productivity increased when molybdenum was applied at 1 kg per hectare, manganese and copper at 2 kg, and zinc at 1,5 kg. The highest yield increase was in the variant where molybdenum was applied at 1 kg per hectare, and the average yield for 3 years 4,9 c (29,9 %) per hectare
O sujeito colonizado no discurso colonialista de viajantes europeus
Authors: Silva Diego Barbosa da
Published: January 2022

Na busca por compreender o(s) sentido(s) sobre o sujeito colonizado, analisamos, por meio do aparato teórico-metodológico de Pêcheux e Orlandi, o funcionamento do discurso do colonizador em um arquivo constituído por relatos, cartas, diários de viajantes e de missionários europeus, além de tratados de naturalistas do século XV ao XIX. Partindo da designação do sujeito colonizado pelo sujeito colonizador, identificamos, assim, quatro formações discursivas que chamamos de formação discursiva do outro como bárbaro, do outro como cordial, do outro como exótico e do outro como igual. Tais formações embora emerjam ancoradas em diferentes discursos como o do extermínio, o religioso, o científico e o jurídico, fazem parte de uma mesma formação ideológica, a colonialista. Essa formação é marcada pelo eurocentrismo e pelo efeito de superioridade do europeu sobre os demais e controla os sentidos desse sujeito não-europeu, não-branco e não-cristão até os dias de hoje, ainda que de forma diferente, dissimulando tais efeitos de sentido.
Exploring Text Mining and Analytics for Applications in Public Security: An in-depth dive into a systematic literature review
Authors: Carvalho Victor Diogho Heuer de , Costa Ana Paula Cabral Seixas
Published: January 2022

Text mining and related analytics emerge as a technological approach to support human activities in extracting useful knowledge through texts in several formats. From a managerial point of view, it can help organizations in planning and decision-making processes, providing information that was not previously evident through textual materials produced internally or even externally. In this context, within the public/governmental scope, public security agencies are great beneficiaries of the tools associated with text mining, in several aspects, from applications in the criminal area to the collection of people's opinions and sentiments about the actions taken to promote their welfare. This article reports details of a systematic literature review focused on identifying the main areas of text mining application in public security, the most recurrent technological tools, and future research directions. The searches covered four major article bases (Scopus, Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, and ACM Digital Library), selecting 194 materials published between 2014 and the first half of 2021, among journals, conferences, and book chapters. There were several findings concerning the targets of the literature review, as presented in the results of this article.
Background subtraction and yolo algorithm
Authors: Niño Rondón Carlos Vicente , Castro Casadiego Sergio Alexander , Medina Delgado Byron
Published: January 2022

Introduction: This article is the result of research entitled “Signal processing system for the detection of people in agglomerations in areas of public space in the city of Cúcuta”, developed at the Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander in 2020.Problem: The high percentage of false positives and false negatives in people detection processes makes decision making in video surveillance, tracking and tracing applications complex. Objective: To determine which technique for the detection of people presents better results in terms of respon-se time and detection hits.Methodology: Two techniques for the detection of people in uncontrolled environments are validated in Python with videos taken inside the Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander: Background subtraction and the YOLO algorithm.Results: With the background subtraction technique, we obtained a hit rate of 84.07 % and an average response time of 0.815 seconds. Likewise, with the YOLO algorithm the hit rate and average response time are 90% and 4.59 seconds respectively.Conclusion: It is possible to infer the use of the background subtraction technique in hardware tools such as the Pi 3B+ Raspberry board for processes in which the analysis of information in real time is prioritized, while the YOLO algorithm presents the characteristics required in the processes in which the information is analyzed after the acquisition of the image.Originality: Through this research, aspects required for the real-time analysis of information obtained in pro-cesses of people detection in uncontrolled environments were analyzed. Limitations: The analyzed videos were taken only at the Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander. Also, the Raspberry Pi 3B+ board overheats when processing the video images, due to the full resource requirement of the device.

Clustering Framework to Cope with COVID-19 for Cities in Turkey
Authors: Guleryuz Didem , Ozden Erdemalp
Published: January 2022

Introduction: This article is the product of the research “Clustering Framework to Cope with COVID-19 for Cities in Turkey”, developed at Bayburt University in 2021.

Problem: Turkey's risk map, presented in January 2021, to take local decisions in tackling the COVID-19 pandemic was based on confirmed cases only. Health, socio-economic and environmental indicators are also important for management decisions of COVID-19. The risk map to be designed by adding these indicators will support more effective decisions.

Objective: The research aims to propose a clustering scheme to design a risk map of cities for Turkey.

Methodology: The unsupervised clustering algorithm suggested dividing the cities of Turkey into clusters, considering health, socio-economic, environmental indicators, and the spread pattern of COVID-19.

Results: We found that cities are clustered into five groups while megacity Istanbul alone formed a cluster, three of Turkey's largest cities formed another cluster. Other clusters consist of 19, 26, and 32 cities, respectively. The most important determinants which have predictive power are identified.

Conclusion: The suggested clustering method can be a decision support system for policymakers to determine the differences and similarities of cities in quarantine decisions and normalization phases for the following periods of the pandemic.

Originality: To the best of our knowledge, this study differs from previous studies because countries were grouped in previous studies only considering the confirmed cases. In this study, cities were clustered in terms of the health, socio-economic, and environmental indicators to make decisions locally.

Limitations: The distribution of confirmed cases by age could be added, especially to make decisions about education, but this data is not officially announced.
Sport in the State Police of the Silesian Voivodeship in the years 1922–1939
Authors: Sowa Janusz
Published: January 2022

The development of sport in the police in 1922–1939 played an important role in the professional and private life of every policeman. In the police work, the basis for the implementation of the entrusted tasks is an above-average level of motor skills. The physical fitness system in the Silesian and state police of the Second Polish Republic is completely omitted in the literature on the subject. Therefore, the goal of this article was to undertake further historical research in this area, taking into account the broad issue of the development of sport in The Police during this period. In the article, on the basis of a query of historical materials collected in the Archives of Modern Records in Warsaw, the Central Archives of Police in Warsaw, the State Archives in Katowice, the Silesian Government and the Provincial Office in Katowice, I described courses and trainings increasing the fitness and promotion of physical culture among officers. They form the entire system of improving the efficiency in the ranks of The Silesian Police. I detailed the actions that led to the uprising in Silesia and across the country dozens of Police Sports Clubs. The article is an attempt to present an important issue concerning the functioning of this formation in the field of pro-sport activities. It contains descriptions of courses, trainings, sport disciplines, instructors and trainers, types of competitions and sports results at the voivodeship level.

Elite army sport in Czechoslovakia 1945–1960
Authors: Pechman Václav
Published: January 2022

The paper explores the process of forming the system of top-level sports in the Czechoslovak armed forces during 1945–1960. Emphasis is placed on examining the postwar development of the institutional framework and the impact of sociopolitical developments on the subject matter. The army’s support for the training of top-level athletes was a logical consequence of the conditions existing during that period and the adoption of the model practiced in the Soviet Union and in all countries of the Eastern Bloc. After the Communist Party took power in February 1948, the new government redefined the significance of physical education and sports. Sports at the top and lower levels were stripped of their apolitical nature and inherent purposes, as the prospects of achieving top-level performances presented a potential for using the achievements for propaganda purposes by the communist regime. Amid the militant atmosphere of the Cold War, the Ministry of National Defense had a unique status, which facilitated the functioning of a government-controlled system of top-level sports training. The ministry had strong financial resources, and its sports program encompassed both professional soldiers and conscripts fulfilling their two-year military duty. On the one hand, universal conscription facilitated the identification of high-potential individuals, and on the other hand, material support and technical resources offered conditions unrivalled elsewhere. Moreover, the military environment did not contravene amateur regulations in effect at that time, and a person’s military status did not contradict his or her civilian ideological principles. Following a period of searching for the optimal structural framework, an organizational structure was established that relied on Dukla Military Sports Clubs, which formed the base of world-class national teams for several subsequent generations.

The basic organisational forms of conducting physical education classes in preschools in Ukraine include: frontal form, classes in teams, additional activities. An important element of the effectiveness of physical education of preschool children in Ukraine is the integration of physical education forms with music and dance.
Konzervatorsko-restauratorski radovi na autobusu Karosa ŠL 11.1305 iz Zbirke javnog gradskog prijevoza Tehničkog muzeja u Brnu
Authors: Kocman Tomáš
Published: January 2022

Zbirka javnog gradskog prijevoza u Tehničkom muzeju u Brnu osnovana je
1970. godine. Temelj kolekcije čini više od sto vozila – muzejskih izložaka –
tramvaja (motornih kola i prikolica), trolejbusa, autobusa te autobusnih
prikolica. U manjoj mjeri su zastupljene i parne i električne lokomotive,
željeznička kola te specijalna radna kola. Navedeni predmeti zahtjevaju sasvim
drugačiji pristup, koji se umnogome razlikuje od prakse ostalih muzejskih
područja. S obzirom na velike dimenzije zahtijevaju i posebne uvjete čuvanja.
Ne treba zanemariti ni njihovu veliku težinu, što ima posebnu važnost pri
manipulaciji ako se vozila ne mogu kretati na vlastitim osovinama. Zbog toga su
postupci konzervatorsko-restauratorskih radova na tim muzejskim predmetima vrlo
specifični, što se najbolje očituje na odabranom primjeru – autobusu Karosa ŠL

Prijedlozi atribucije Nikoli Ivanovu Firentincu u Korčuli
Authors: Pavazza Branko
Published: January 2022

U tekstu su izneseni prijedlozi za autorstvo nekoliko elemenata kamene ukrasne
opreme na zdanjima u povijesnoj jezgri grada Korčule, od kojih je na prvom
mjestu okvir ulaznog portala palače Gabriellis. Ovo arhitektonsko i dekorativno
djelo, na istaknutoj poziciji istočnog pročelja okrenutog prema Trgu svetoga
Marka, može se pripisati majstoru Nikoli Ivanovu Firentincu. Djelo je
najvjerojatnije isporučeno naručitelju početkom 16. stoljeća, ali nije bila uključena ugradnja sa
zahvatom povišenja portala, ni izrada vijenca iznad okvira vrata. Nadvratni je
vijenac portala palače Gabriellis naknadno izveo lokalni majstor Petar
Andrijić, a to bi se moglo protumačiti (predloženo je jedno od mogućih
objašnjenja) prenamjenom smještaja Nikolinog kamenog okvira, tj. njegovom
ugradnjom na istočno pročelje palače. Treći se prijedlog odnosi na nadvratnik
ulaznog portala kuće u korčulanskoj Ulici Žitnica s obiteljskim grbom
Mihetić-Dragojević (prijedlog tumačenja), koji se prema nekim klesarskim
značajkama i obiteljskoj povijesti vlasnika, može povezati s Nikolom
Firentincem, dok su dovratnici isklesani u nekoj od korčulanskih klesarskih

DERECHO INTERNACIONAL PRIVADO EUROPEO Y APLICACIÓN DE LAS DIRECTIVAS EUROPEAS PROTECTORAS DE LA PARTE CONTRACTUAL DÉBIL
Authors: Campo Comba María
Published: January 2022

The Rome I Regulation on the law applicable to contractual obligations includes special conflict rules that determine the law applicable to consumer contracts and individual employment contracts. However, in some cases, these rules are not enough to ensure the application of the mandatory provisions contained in the EU directives protecting weaker contracting parties according to their intentions and objectives. This study analyses the existing inconsistencies regarding the coordination between the Rome I Regulation and those directives, focusing specially on consumer contracts and individual employment contracts. The possible mechanisms of the Rome I Regulation to ensure the protection emanating from the mentioned directives are examined. This study proposes a European private international law method that takes more into account the EU needs, particularly regarding the harmonised areas of EU law such as EU consumer law.
NUEVAS TECNOLOGÍAS PARA LA PROMOCIÓN Y DEFENSA DE LOS DERECHOS HUMANOS
Authors: López Belloso María
Published: January 2022

Since new technologies like Big Data, machine learning or artificial intelligence were introduced in the international agenda, they have been perceived as a threat for human rights, especially the right to privacy. This defensive stance in front of the use of such tools has prevented the International Law of Human Rights to employ them for its promotion and defence or for the protection of people defending it. This work intends to offer an alternative vision and to present concrete examples of the potential use of such tools in favour of human rights and their defendants.

RESCATANDO UNA NORMA DEL OLVIDO: EL ART. VIII DE LA CONVENCIÓN CONTRA EL GENOCIDIO Y LA RESPONSABILIDAD DE PROTEGER
Authors: Pezzano Luciano
Published: January 2022

The paper examines the origin and interpretation of art. VIII of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, as well as the problems for its invocation in practice, and it proposes a current reading of that Article, through the prism of the Responsibility to Protect. In particular, the paper argues that art. VIII can be regarded as a precursor to the Responsibility to Protect, having expressly recognized the competences of United Nations organs in the prevention and suppression of genocide at as early as 1948. Also, the paper stresses that art. VIII has provided an important legal basis for the existence of a responsibility of the international community to protect populations from such a heinous crime.

Published: January 2022

This study examines the transparency and effectiveness of EU cooperation with third countries on return and readmission and reflects on how difficult it is to reconcile it with the rule of law and human rights culture. Thus, EU readmission agreements (EURA) formally concluded with third countries will be presented. The study then discusses the underlying issues arising from the increasing informality surrounding readmission policy, both at the EU and bilateral level. It finally concludes with a critical review of the conventional readmission policy with third countries from a human rights perspective.
ENTRE APOYO A LA INTEGRACIÓN Y PREVENCIÓN DE LA RADICALIZACIÓN. UNA MIRADA CRÍTICA AL PLAN DE ACCIÓN DE INTEGRACIÓN E INCLUSIÓN DE LA UNIÓN EUROPEA

Published: January 2022

Not being its purpose to establish a security-migration link, the aim of this Study is to analyse both European Union’s action to prevent radicalization and the current starting point by means of an instrument specifically aimed at promoting social inclusion and integration of third-country nationals and Europeans with a migrant background: the Action plan on Integration and Inclusion 2021-2027. In this document, besides stressing EU’s intervention thought the lens of human rights, the Commission approaches social inclusion and integration from a securitarian perspective; that is, for the first time in the European agenda, as an active element of its action to prevent radicalization processes leading to violent extremism and terrorism. This approach, however, might entail undesired consequences for the effective protection and promotion of the rights of this collective.
LAS OBLIGACIONES DE LOS ESTADOS EN MATERIA DE PREVENCIÓN Y PROTECCIÓN CONTRA LA TRATA DE MUJERES CON FINES DE EXPLOTACIÓN SEXUAL EN EL CONTEXTO MIGRATORIO
Authors: Vázquez Rodríguez Beatriz
Published: January 2022

The increase in the levels of trafficking in women and girls for the purpose of sexual exploitation because of the current migratory phenomenon calls for effective responses from the States to prevent and combat this problem in a comprehensive manner. This study analyzes the universal and regional international framework, in which there are important limitations, both due to the absence of a human rights approach and the lack of a gender perspective. However, there are trends with respect to the conception of this phenomenon that could lead to a positive redefinition of the scope of State obligations.
MISCELÁNEA: LA BUENA ADMINISTRACIÓN DE JUSTICIA EN LA JURISDICCIÓN INTERNACIONAL PENAL: EXCEPCIONES A LA APLICACIÓN ESTRICTA DE LA NORMATIVA PROCESAL EN MATERIA DE RECURSOS
Authors: Aragonés Molina Laura
Published: January 2022

International courts and tribunals refer to the principle of good administration of justice to justify certain decisions that do not find a legal basis expressly provided neither in their statutes nor in their rules of procedure or when they interpret the procedural rules in a flexible manner. In those cases, they exercise inherent powers necessary to ensure the fulfilment of their judicial function. This principle, whose content is imprecise, has two main purposes: to safeguard the proper administration of proceedings and to guarantee the justice of the decision. In this paper we study several manifestations of this principle in the application and interpretation of the procedural provisions of revision and additional evidence in appeal. We focus on the judicial practice of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, and the International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals. These precedents can be extremely useful when litigating in the International Criminal Court as well as in other international courts.
MISCELÁNEA: LA CONSTRUCCIÓN DE UNA POTENCIA GLOBAL: LA INFLUENCIA DE LA COMPETICIÓN GEOPOLÍTICA INTERNACIONAL EN LA TRANSFORMACIÓN DE LA ESFERA DOMÉSTICA DE ESTADOS UNIDOS
Authors: Vidal Pérez Esteban
Published: January 2022

Neoclassical realism and structural realism provide different explanations about the rise of the United States as a global power. However, these approaches overlook the influence of international geopolitical competition on the internal political structures of States and how they affect their foreign policy. In this paper, we analyze the role of external pressures in shaping the United States’ domestic sphere to explain how it became a global power. To do so, we resort to geopolitics and discuss how the international environment poses challenges, and States confront them by reorganizing their space and institutions in order to increase their national capabilities. In this way, we study several decisive moments in US history to see how they shaped its domestic realm and contributed to make this country a global power.
Differentiation in seed mass and seedling biomass allocation in Prosopis laevigata throughout its distribution range in Mexico is associated to water availability
Authors: Hernández-Madrigal Fátima , Contreras-Negrete Gonzalo , Aguilar-Romero Rafael , Pineda-García Fernando , González-Rodríguez Antonio
Published: January 2022

Background: Seedling establishment depends on the quality of the seeds and environmental conditions. Differential biomass allocation in emergent seedlings probably constitutes a relevant adaptive response of populations along environmental gradients.

Questions: Are there differences in seed mass and biomass allocation in seedlings among Prosopis laevigata populations? Is this variation correlated with environmental variables?

Studied species: Prosopis laevigata (Humb. & Bonpl. ex Willd.) M.C.Johnst (Fabaceae).

Study site and dates: Thirteen localities along the distribution of P. laevigata in México. From 2016 to 2020.

Methods: Seeds were collected from four or five mother trees per locality. Seed mass (SM) was obtained in ten seeds per mother and six functional traits indicative of biomass allocation were measured in the seedlings after 10 days of germination. Population mean values were obtained for the six traits plus SM and subjected to a principal component analysis (PCA). Population scores on the first two axis of the PCA were regressed against environmental variables from the collection localities using a stepwise regression model.

Results: Populations displayed functional variation congruent with alternative biomass allocation strategies. The conservative strategy was characterized by larger seeds and seedlings with denser tissues and a higher investment in root biomass, while the opposite characterized the acquisitive strategy. Actual evapotranspiration in May, isothermality and soil water content in February were environmental variables that significantly predicted population scores on the first two axes of the PCA.

Conclusion: Water availability gradients influence seed mass and seedling biomass allocation variation among P. laevigata populations.
The use of online discussion board and blogs to enhance History student teachers' Work Integrated Learning (WIL)
Authors: Mabalane Valencia
Published: January 2022

ABSTRACT The paper reports on research on History student teachers' enhancement of Work Integrated Learning (WIL) using online tools like a discussion board and blogs. It draws on the enhancement programme planned for the History student teachers - 78 Bachelor of Education students (BEd) 4th-year students and 28 Post-Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) students who were expected to integrate technological tools in their teaching during WIL; some of them, mostly PGCE students lacked the necessary Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) in this regard. Thus, the main purpose of this study was to explore the extent to which the online discussion board and blogs enhanced student teachers' classroom practice during WIL. The theoretical lens that informed this study was the five-factor model of mentoring for effective teaching that underpinned the need for improved support and mentoring by the History student teachers: personal attributes, system requirements, pedagogical knowledge, modelling, and feedback. Qualitative research methods and purposive sampling were used. The data was analysed using content analysis as per the five-factor model of mentoring for effective teaching. The findings revealed that student teachers responded overwhelmingly positively to the use of the online tools. They also revealed that the one-and-a-half-hour face-to-face debriefing was not acceptable to the majority of the participants. Most of them felt that it was just a formality and failed to address their immediate needs compared to being mentored online by their peers. In light of these findings, the study suggests that the usage of an online discussion board and blogs in mentoring and encouraging the improvement of student teachers' PCK should be considered and included when planning WIL programmes.

Online teaching in Education for the subject group History under COVID 19 conditions
Authors: Bunt Byron
Published: January 2022

ABSTRACT As tertiary institutions globally transitioned into an online teaching framework as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic, it is critical that history education lecturers reconsider their teaching and learning strategies. This article reports on the planning and implementation of an online teaching programme within the History in Education subject group at the North-West University (NWU), in South Africa. The author is the subject group leader of the subject group and from observations and experiences, this article will report on how this program was implemented. First and foremost, how we handled teaching in an online setting is vastly different from a face-to-face setting. Few lecturers might have taught students studying in distance programs for some time, but for many lecturers and students who are accustomed to face-to-face instruction, the online world may often be new and even intimidating. The existing scenario calls for a full rethink in teaching and learning. Through proper preparation, we will not only provide our lecturers through greater versatility in the delivery of online classrooms, but also represent our students when making the best of the opportunities we have at our disposal. This article wishes to undertake a critical experiential evaluation of this online teaching strategy that was used in 2020 in the History Education subject group at the North-West University. A literature review focusing on online teaching, History in Education online teaching as well as COVID-19's impact on tertiary education. The methodology of the research is then discussed, followed by the initial planning stage, culminating in the lessons learned and possible future changes to this plan.

Developments in history education in Ghana
Authors: Boadu Gideon
Published: January 2022

ABSTRACT This article employs historical records, cultural traditions, and insights from recent interviews with history teachers to trace the beginnings of history teaching and the political landscape that has shaped school history and history curricula in Ghana. The article argues that history education in Ghana has survived the ravages of time, Western historiographical ideals and imperialist ambitions as well as politically motivated legislations and reforms. The article concludes that history education is regaining its grounds in Ghanaian schools and raises implications for teacher education and resource provision in schools. The article contributes to an understanding of the evolution of history education in Ghana and the impact of colonial and political forces on curricula, teaching and learning of African history.

Heads of Department's role in implementation of History syllabi at selected Zimbabwean secondary schools: an instructional leadership perspective
Authors: Sengai Walter
Published: January 2022

ABSTRACT This qualitative study explores the school-based instructional leadership role of Heads of Department (HODs) in the implementation of different History syllabi. It seeks to establish the practices that History HODs carry out in order to improve the teaching and learning of the subject. HODs are subject specialists who are responsible for establishing and ensuring high standards of teaching and learning in their subjects. This study is a response to the claim that History HODs often fail to rise to expectations in ensuring effective curriculum implementation in the subject. Qualitative data was collected through the study of circulars and policy documents and by conducting structured, in-depth interviews with fifteen key informants sampled from selected schools in the Glen View/Mufakose district in Harare. The key finding from this study is that the HODs were the de facto instructional leaders during the implementation of the History syllabi and that their level of involvement determines the success and/or failure of History syllabi. The paper concludes by asserting that HODs play a critical role in the implementation of History syllabi, since they are at the chalk face and directly supervise the implementation of changes in the subject as illustrated at five secondary schools used in the study. Keywords: HOD; Instructional leadership; Implementation; History Syllabus; Supervision.
