Published: July 2023

Progressive or accelerated atherosclerosis is accompanied by unfavorable clinical outcomes. Studying and understanding this process and creating a personalized method for assessing the risk and prognosis of this disease are necessary to optimize approaches to treatment and prevention.Aim:To compare two approaches to the creation of prognostic risk model of progressive atherosclerosis: non-linear regression model of logistic type and free cross-platform visual programming system Orange method.Material and Methods.The retrospective cohort study included 202 patients with confirmed coronary heart disease: 147 men and 55 women. The mean age of the patients was 53.3 ± 7.16 years. Group 1 included patients with myocardial infarction or unstable stenocardia, emergency arterial stenting, stroke, peripheral arterial thrombosis, critical ischemia and lower extremity amputation within 2 years before inclusion in the study. Patients in the comparison group did not have these events. Predictive models of the influence of different studied parameters on the probability of rapid progression of atherosclerosis were built using factor and correlation analysis and free cross-platform Orange visual programming system.Results.The authors’ suggested approaches to the evaluation of the risk of progressive atherosclerosis have a good prognostic accuracy (sensitivity 94.1, specificity 97.0 and accuracy 95.5 coefficients, respectively) for the regression model and 0,950 (95,0%) for the machine learning model. However, the construction of the regression model is a more complex procedure compared to the second approach, where the choice of informative indicators for the prediction model is made by Orange. Nevertheless, the above two approaches can successfully complement each other, allowing to build more accurate predictive risk models.Conclusion.The proposed authors’ approaches to assessing the risk of progressive atherosclerosis have a good prognostic accuracy.

El desecho de empaques plásticos no biodegradables para el empaquetamiento de alimentos representa un problema ambiental, por lo que se busca sustituirlos con bioplásticos a partir de materiales sostenibles, biodegradables y con valor añadido. En el presente trabajo se elaboró un bioplástico utilizando un residuo agroindustrial adicionado con plastificantes y acidificantes con propiedades antifúngicas y antioxidantes. El bioplástico mostró un color (sistema CIE L*a*b) entre los rojos y verdes, un ∆E de 71.01 ± 0.61 y % solubilidad en agua de 38.19 ± 1.38. El bioplástico inhibió completamente el crecimiento, al ser evaluado por la técnica de difusión en disco, contra Botrytis cinérea, Penicillium spp y Aspergillus niger. El bioplástico mostró potencial como empaque para alimentos con un % de humedad bajo, alargando su vida de anaquel y fungiendo como vehículo de compuestos bioactivos en los alimentos.

Published: July 2023

El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el efecto del ultrasonido sobre las nanoemulsiones de alginato de sodio (AS).  Para esto, la emulsión gruesa constituida por 0.01% de alginato de sodio (fase acuosa), 1.0% de aceite de maíz y 1.0% Tween 80, fue pre-mezclada a 9,000 rpm por 5 min en un Ultraturrax T18 (IKA® Works, Inc., Wilmington, USA). Las mezclas fueron sometidas a tratamiento acústico usando un ultrasonido Branson Sonifier SFX-550 (Danbury, USA) operando a 550 W, 20 kHz y una amplitud del 75% a dos tiempos de sonicación (3.5 y 7 min). El tamaño de partícula, el índice de polidispersión y el potencial- z fueron evaluados. De manera interesante, el tamaño de partícula de las nanoemulsiones formadas incrementó de ~117 a ~123 nm al incrementar el tiempo de procesamiento, indicando posiblemente el sobreprocesamiento de las nanoemulsiones. Por el contrario, el índice de polidispersión y el potencial-z decreció de 0.22 a 0.20 y de –15 y –13 mV, respectivamente, al incrementar el tiempo de procesamiento de 3.5 a 7 min. Estos resultados muestran que la tecnología de ultrasonido puede ser una alternativa tecnología para el desarrollo de nanoemulsiones a base de alginato de sodio.

Racismo ambiental e comunidades Caiçaras no Brasil: Entre o "mito moderno da natureza intocada" e o Ecoturismo
Authors: Maciel Cassiana Sare
Published: July 2023

O presente artigo examina os processos históricos relativos à aplicação da legislação ambiental restritiva da Mata Atlântica a partir do exame das comunidades caiçaras habitantes da terra em questão. Entendidas como comunidades tradicionais, objetivou-se investigar sua relação com os estatutos de proteção ambiental que versam sobre seu território. Partindo das discussões de Antonio Carlos Diegues (2008) e Cristina Adams (2000, 2002), foram desenvolvidos os debates acerca da conservação e preservação natural sem a consideração da presença humana. Ainda através dos referenciais paulistas, os caiçaras foram compreendidos enquanto populações racializadas e vulneráveis sem acesso ao diálogo com o Estado exigido por lei. Constatou-se que os caiçaras são alvo de impactos desiguais no que diz respeito aos resultados da devastação ambiental provocada por empreendimentos turísticos, bem como têm sua ocupação do espaço restringida. Por isso, foram necessárias as discussões sobre racismo ambiental e necropolítica a partir de Selene Herculano (2008), Tânia Pacheco (2008) e Achille Mbembe (2018). Ao final, tem-se por resultado a compreensão da ampla gama de necessidades que envolve os diferentes espaços habitados por comunidades caiçaras, cujo elemento em comum se observa no urgente e necessário diálogo por parte dos poderes públicos que regem as áreas de proteção com as comunidades que nelas vivem.

Povos indígenas e suas lutas por direito a educação de qualidade e meio ambiente saudável: o caso da Aldeia Açaizal, região do Planalto Santareno, Pará-Brasil
Authors: Rocha Hellen Regina Martins , SILVA CLAUDIO EMIDIO
Published: July 2023

Este artigo trata de apresentar a aldeia Açaizal do povo indígena Munduruku, contextualizando sua realidade em plena ocupação da região por plantadores de soja e milho em formato de monoculturas que além de empobrecer a biodiversidade local contribuem, sobremaneira, com a poluição de recursos naturais imprescindíveis as populações tradicionais locais. A partir de relatos dos próprios moradores da aldeia Açaizal tecemos os significados da violação dos direitos fundamentais da comunidade, por parte do Estado, que além de se omitir frente aquela realidade contribui de várias formas para que os direitos a uma educação escolar indígena não se estabeleçam plenamente. Nesse contexto há também uma violação dos direitos ambientais, que podemos aqui tratar como racismo ambiental trazido pelos imigrantes que destroem o meio ambiente e os recursos necessários ao bem viver das pessoas da aldeia Açaizal. A luta por uma educação escolar na comunidade remonta a década de 70, quando conseguiram materializar a primeira escola. Nas últimas duas décadas do século XXI as agressões a pessoa indígena e aos seus territórios tem causado grandes perdas materiais e culturais ao povo Munduruku da Aldeia Açaizal. Nosso estudo denuncia a realidade de opressão em que vive esse povo, procura ajudar na visibilização de suas lutas e discute como podemos superar algumas dessas dificuldades. Apesar de ainda terem uma grande luta pela frente reivindicam uma condição de bem-viver, naquele território, com educação escolar de qualidade e um meio ambiente sustentável.

Introduction: The bone marrow aspirate examination is defined as a quantitative and qualitative study of bone marrow cells obtained by puncture and aspiration. Aim: Our objective was to evaluate the practice of this exam at Andrainjato Fianarantsoa University Hospital in order to improve its diagnostic relevance. Method: This is a prospective and descriptive cross-sectional study of all bone marrow aspirates performed at the Andrainjato Fianarantsoa University Hospital Madagascar, during 18 months, from January 2021 to June 2022. Results: Forty-two bone marrow aspirate examinations were performed during the study period, among the 338 requests for hematological analysis received, representing a percentage of 1.26%. The average age of the patients was 32.17 years, with a sex ratio of 2.5. The prescription was of hospital origin in 83.3% of patients, motivated by the disturbance of the blood count in 78.6% of cases. Thirty-three requests were evaluated as relevant prescriptions. Coupled with the realization of the bone marrow examination, the haemograms were pathological in 78.6% of cases. The result of the bone marrow aspirate showed normal marrow cytology (16.7%), reactive marrow (23.8%), pathological marrow (50.0%), and hemodiluted marrow (9.5%). Dysmyelopoiesis (33.3%), multiple myeloma (23.8%), and acute leukemia (19.0%) were the main pathologies found. The difficulties encountered were related to the poor quality of the equipment and the non-availability of other complementary explorations. Conclusion: The bone marrow aspirate examination is technically feasible at Andrainjato Fianarantsoa University Hospital despite the existence of difficulties. The commitment to the process of continuous improvement of quality would impose the improvement of the technical platform.
Academic Writers as Interdisciplinary Agents in the University Access Programme
Authors: Sekonyela Lerato Maletlala
Published: July 2023

The paper reports on academic writers as interdisciplinary agents in the University Access Programme (UAP). Among the many challenges, UAP students experience is academic writing. Due to student assignment performance in the first semester of 2022, the sociology module coordinator identified challenges students experience in sociology, particularly in the first year of study. Identified academic writing challenging matters in this regard refers to paragraph construction, referencing and/or citing, and paraphrasing. The challenges mentioned above seem to be addressed in one developmental module (academic literacy) students undertake. With that in mind, our students seem to treat modules in isolation. The academic literacy module teaches students how to reference, paragraph construction, and paraphrase. However, when students engage with modules like sociology, they seem not to apply what was taught in academic literacy. This paper reports on the important role academic writers play in assisting students in academic writing matters via a boot camp (refresher camp) conducted for students. The boot camp's focus was assisting sociology students with academic writing in preparation for their final assignment. Data were gathered from students via written feedback and evaluation of the boot camp. The results from the university gradebook indicated significant improvement in assignment writing matters; this improvement was also expressed in students’ feedback.
Sobre los hombros de Maquiavelo: algunas consideraciones sobre el rol de la historia en el razonamiento político de Nicolás Maquiavelo

En esta ocasión quisiera tratar de mostrar que si tenemos en cuen­ta el razonamiento político e histórico de Maquiavelo es posible sacar una valiosa lección metodológica acerca del rol que tiene la consideración historiográfica en el ámbito del razonamiento político. A tal efecto, quisiera empezar retratando muy brevemente dos enfoques metodológicos que han caracterizado a buena parte de los estudios de la filosofía política en las últimas décadas. Lue­go, sobre la base de estas consideraciones, quisiera dirigir mi aten­ción a lo que podríamos llamar los testamentos metodológicos de Maquiavelo, a saber: el “Prólogo” de las Historias Florentinas, el “Proemio” del primer libro de los Discursos sobre la primera déca­da de Tito Livio y la célebre “Carta dedicatoria” del Príncipe. Por último, me gustaría cerrar mis consideraciones ofreciendo algu­nas breves conclusiones en favor del valor que puede llegar a tener cruzar las barreras que han caracterizado los estudios del pensa­miento de Maquiavelo en las últimas décadas.­
Application of GIS and Remote Sensing Techniques for Hydromorphometric Analysis of
Wadi Al-Mohammadi Basin, Western Iraq
Authors: Mahmood H. D. Al-Kubaisi  , Qusai Y. S. Al-Kubaisi
Published: July 2023

Hydromorphometric analysis as a method is considered one of the most reliable and
used methods in solving hydrological problems. Where it is possible to know the volume
of runoff and the rest of the elements that enter into the water balance. Geographical
Information System and Remote Sensing is the technique that used the hydro-morphometric
analysis of the Wadi Al-Mohammadi basin. Wadi Al-Mohammadi, located in the Western
Desert, is one of the main valleys that flow into the Euphrates River. It is considered
an important basin, because of its many characteristics, including its relatively large
area and the amount of water drained through, which is used mainly in watering livestock
and agriculture, in addition to industrial purposes such as the production of washed
sand, gravel that scattered on both sides of the valley. The hydrological analysis
included several steps, which gave the results of the flow accumulation with the highest
value in the lower part of the basin. The results represented by form characteristics
confirm that the shape of the basin is far from the round shape, which reflects the
basin’s characteristics with the regular surface flow in time and relatively low
drainages. Wadi Al-Mohammadi basin has reached the 5th order to flow into the Euphrates
River. It has two types of drainage patterns, the dendritic pattern, and the parallel
pattern. Wadi Al-Mohammadi basin is categorized as extremely low drainage density, very
low drainage frequency, very coarse drainage texture, lower infiltration number, and low
relief slope. Based on the results, the basin is characterized by an almost flat plateau
surface, with a gradual slope homogeneous and good permeable soil conditions, and in
other parts influenced by the structural phenomena under the surface, the high
permeability of sediments over which streams pass, higher the infiltration and lower
runoff.
The Effect of Rotation on the Heat Transfer of a Couple Stress Fluid in A
Nonuniform Inclined Asymmetrical Channel with Inclined MHD
Authors: Abdulhussein Hanaa , M. Abdulhadi Ahmed
Published: July 2023

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of rotation on heat
transfer usinginclination magnetohydrodynamics for a couple-stress fluid in a
non-uniform canal. When theReynolds number is low and the wavelength is long, math
formulas are used to describe the streamfunction, as well as the gradient of pressure,
temperature, pressure rise and axial velocity perwavelength, which have been calculated
analytically. The many parameters in the current modelare assigned a definite set of
values. It has been noticed that both the pressure rise and the pressuregradient
decrease with the rise of the rotation and couple stress, while they increase with
anincrease in viscosity and Hartmann number. The explanation of parameters is shown
graphicallyby a series of figures using "MATHEMATICA".

and fasting serum lipid profile, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and Homeostatic Model
Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) as biochemical variables were assessed. 
Statistical significance (α) was set at (p<0.05).Results: Based on independent
samples T-test analysis acted as a significant comparison between non-obese and obese
groups, anthropometrics and biochemical variables exhibited highly significant higher in
obese compared with non-obese. Also, a positive significant correlation was found
between WC and WHR with both of HOMA-IR and HbA1c. Finally, a positive significant
association of HOMA-IR with triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), very low-density
lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) except for
high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), no significance was found as well as HbA1c
showed only positive significant association with LDL-C. In conclusion, the present
study demonstrated that WC was the strongest indicator for increasing HOMA-IR than WHR.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of chronic liver and defines by
fat accumulation ≥5% in liver which can progresses to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis
(NASH). NAFLD related to obesity as well as non obese individuals. Adiponectin is a
cytokine secreted from adipose tissue involved NAFLD pathogenesis and liked with
obesity. Irisin is a myokine, has a convenient effect against metabolic diseases such as
obesity, disylipemia diabetes type 2 and reversed liver steatosis and may be related
with NAFLD.  Vitamin D is one of the fat soluble vitamins and more precisely as a
pro-hormone through its metabolite (1,25(OH)2 cholecalciferol) the major steroid
hormone. After the skin exposure to the light, vitamin D undergoes to activation through
two successive hydroxylation reactions in liver and kidney. Several metabolic diseases
such as dyslipidaemia, obesity, hypertension, T2D and metabolic syndrome (MS) have been
related to vitamin D deficiency.

Published: July 2023

A fibroadenoma is a solid, not fluid-filled, unilateral, benign (non-cancerous), breast tumour. It is painless. Fibroadenoma the terms "Fibro" and "Adenoma" refer to the glandular structure in epithelial tissue, respectively. In most cases, they appear as a straightforward, moveable, painless, smooth, and well-defined lump. They could be found in one breast or both. fibroadenoma is most frequently detected in women between the ages of 14 and 35. The lump may gradually grow without any accompanying pain, nipple changes, or skin changes, however the menstrual cycle may cause variations in size. In women with clinically worrisome lesions or lesions that are equivocal on imaging, FNA, or CNB (SORC), an excisional biopsy should be undertaken to reduce the risk of scarring that will impede further mammographic and sonographic interpretation. Clinical and radiographic examinations revealed complex fibroadenomas. Metformin as a new option in the medical management of breast fibroadenoma. The treatment of fibroadenoma may be conservative, but the mass may be removed through total enucleation. Patients should be counselled throughout therapy on the benign nature of the mass, the various surgical and non-surgical treatments, and the necessity for additional surgery. More long-term outcome data are needed to inform treatment options for adolescent patients with breast fibroadenomas.
Limitations on Granting Copyrights to AI-Generated Works and Alternative Protection Methodologies

Published: July 2023

With the development of generative artificial intelligence technology, AI is emerging as a complete creative subject throughout the creative process. Therefore, in this paper, the concept of artificial intelligence-generated works (AGW) with minimal human intervention among AI-related creations is clearly defined through comparison with adjacent concepts, and then comprehensively summarizes the limitations of AGW protection in the interpretation of the current copyright law, and the international trend and overseas trends are briefly checked. Second, if it is difficult to protect by granting copyrights to AGW, first, consider how to leave it as a public domain, but also review the theoretical grounds for the theory of putting public domain and specific implementation methods thereof. Furthermore, we examine the limitations and problems of the theory of public domains, such as concerns about the possibility of abuse and false registration, as well as alternative solutions, to see what problems neglecting AGW, which is difficult to distinguish from human creation, can cause. Third, as a concrete protection methodology that has been discussed as an alternative solution, we look at the unification/dualization method and the method of subsuming within the copyright normative system or enacting a special law. In either way, the protection of AGW is premised on discriminatory protection, so this paper focuses on the theory of so-called ‘thin copyright protection’ and examines the key points that need to be reviewed in case of discriminatory protection.

Introduction: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major public health threat, which can be treated if diagnosed early, but unfortunately, many people with chronic diseases are not diagnosed until the final stages. Machine learning and its techniques can be very helpful in diagnosis. This study examines the factors affecting hepatitis C diagnosis using machine learning.Material and Methods: A total of 27 features were used with a dataset containing 1385 records of patients with different grades of HCV. The dataset was clean and preprocessed to ensure accuracy and consistency. To reduce the dimension of the dataset and determine the effective features three feature selection, Pearson Correlation, ANOVA, and Random Forest, were applied. Among all the algorithms, KNN, random forests, and Deep Neural Networks were selected to be utilized, and then their evaluation metrics, such as Accuracy and Recall. To create prediction models, fifteen features were selected for the mentioned machine learning algorithms.Results: Performance evaluation of these models based on accuracy showed that Deep Learning with Accuracy = 92.067 had the highest performance. KNN and Random Forest had almost the same performance after Deep Learning. This performance was achieved on dataset containing features that were selected by ANOVA feature selection.Conclusion: Machine learning has been very effective in solving many challenges in the field of health. This study showed that using data-mining algorithms also can be useful for HCV diagnosing. The proposed model in this study can help physicians diagnose the degree of HCV at an affordable and with high accuracy.

The increasing need for protein, both meat and eggs, still continues to increase. Antibiotics addition can increase egg growth and production. Based on Law No.18 of 2009 along with Law No.41 of 2014 concerning existing livestock, there is a prohibition on the use of antibiotics mixed with feed. The use of probiotics mixed with feed, is used to increase livestock productivity. This study aims is to determine the effect of Bacillus subtilis probiotics addition on egg weight, albumen height and haugh unit values. 18 Laying hens aged 39 weeks were randomized into 3 treatments with 8 reiterations. The treatment consisted of P0 without the addition of probiotics, P1 with the addition of Bacillus subtilis 0.1 gram / kg of feed probiotics and P2 with the addition of Bacillus subtilis 0.2 gram / kg of feed probiotics. The results of the analysis using the test (ANOVA) showed a significant difference (p <0.05) to the egg weight value, the albumen height values were significant (p <0.05) and (p <0.05) in the haugh unit value . In conclusion the addition of probiotics in concentrations of 0.1 and 0.2 grams can increase the value of egg weight, albumen height and haugh unit.

Objective The Community Assessment of Psychic Experiences has been widely translated and commonly used as a measure for psychotic experiences and psychosis proneness in clinical and research environments worldwide. This study aimed to establish the psychometric properties (reliability and validity) and factor structure of a Korean version of the Community Assessment of Psychic Experiences (K-CAPE) in the general population.Methods A total of 1,467 healthy participants completed K-CAPE and other psychiatric symptom-related scales (Paranoia scale, Patient Health Questionnaire-9, Dissociative Experiences Scale-II, and Oxford-Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences) via online survey. K-CAPE’s internal reliability was analyzed using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed to investigate whether the original three-factor model (positive, negative, and depressive) and other hypothesized multidimensional models (including positive and negative subfactors) were suitable for our data. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted to explore better alternative factor solutions with a follow-up CFA. To assess convergent and discriminant validity, we examined correlations between K-CAPE subscales with other established measures of psychiatric symptoms.Results K-CAPE showed good internal consistency in all original three subscales (all greater than α=0.827). The CFA demonstrated that the multidimensional models exhibited relatively better quality than the original three-dimensional model. Although the model fit indices did not reach their respective optimal thresholds, they were within an acceptable range. Results from the EFA indicated 3–5 factor solutions. In 3-factor solution, “negative-avolition” items were founded to be loaded more consistently with depressive items than with the negative dimension. In 4-factor solution, positive items were divided into two subfactors: “positive-bizarre experiences” and “positive-delusional thoughts,” while negative symptoms were separated into two distinct subfactors in 5-factor solution: “negative-avolition (expressive),” and “negative-social (experiential).” The correlation coefficients between K-CAPE subscales and corresponding measurements were significant (p<0.001), confirming the convergent and discriminant validity.Conclusion Our study provides evidence to support the reliability and validity of the K-CAPE and its use as a measure of psychotic symptoms in the Korean population. Although alternative factor structures did not improve the model fit, our EFA findings implicate the use of subfactors to investigate more specific domains of positive and negative symptoms. Given the heterogeneous nature of psychotic symptoms, this may be useful in capturing their different underlying mechanisms.

No se escucha, pero se “siente”: Ubiquitous listening en el arte contemporáneo
Authors: San Cristóbal Úrsula
Published: July 2023

Los elementos sonoros cada vez tienen más presencia en el arte contemporáneo: museos y galerías resuenan gracias a estímulos audibles, que la mayor parte del tiempo tienden a pasar inadvertidos por el público. En este texto abordo el problema de esta falta de atención. En primer lugar, pongo en evidencia cómo el incremento de publicaciones y exposiciones sobre el sonido en el arte no siempre se ha traducido en una mayor atención a lo sonoro por parte de la audiencia y de la crítica especializada. Esto se aprecia particularmente en los contextos de exhibición más propios de las artes plásticas como la Bienal de Venecia, de la cual comento dos casos. En segundo lugar, abordo una herramienta teórica para el estudio de la escucha desatenta, a través de la revisión del concepto de Ubiquitous listening de Anahid Kassabian en el contexto de las investigaciones musicológicas. Finalmente, aplico este concepto a un caso de estudio: la performance (279) golpes de la poeta y artista guatemalteca Regina José Galindo, mostrando cómo el sonido colabora a construir el impacto emocional de la obra.
Noticias inéditas sobre cinco plateros compostelanos desconocidos: Esteban Montero, Alejandro Bermúdez, Andrés Legrande, Jesús Paz e Isolino del Río

La platería, pese a ser una de las disciplinas que configuraron el sistema de artes y oficios de Santiago desde la propia fundación de la ciudad en los inicios del siglo IX, no ha sido estudiada de forma decidida por la historiografía gallega. Nuestra investigación se centra en las fuentes documentales que nos permiten comprender el desarrollo de este arte, especialmente desde un enfoque biográfico y atendiendo a la importancia de los artistas en la Compostela de su época. En este artículo exploramos el contexto del tránsito del siglo XIX al XX desde la prensa histórica a través de cinco plateros desconocidos hasta ahora, dando cuenta de noticias entre las que hemos encontrado las descripciones de suntuosas piezas perdidas que certifican la variedad y calidad de sus trabajos e importancia de sus destinatarios.
La significación política de lo dialógico en el cine de los sesenta y setenta
Authors: Valle Corpas Irene
Published: July 2023

Este artículo es un repaso por la noción de diálogo o encuentro en las artes y el pensamiento de los sesenta y setenta del siglo XX, divididas históricamente por el episodio de 1968. Mantendré que en las artes, lo dialógico representó una estrategia política por partida doble: la conversación y el encuentro eran tanto un vector de ruptura con los modos de entender el hecho artístico, como un procedimiento para construir una presencia corporal y común considerada perdida y/o necesaria. En este itinerario tendré preferencia por el cine aunque aludiré asimismo a la irrupción de lo dialógico en la literatura o la filosofía. Concluiré comentando en qué sentido el diálogo se presenta como una de las claves de la filosofía política actual.
