Una paz insostenible: abusos y embrollos discursivos en el uso del término “sosteni-ble” aplicado a la idea de desarrollo
Authors: Enríquez Sánchez José María
Published: July 2020

El presente escrito, como anticipa su título, versa sobre la idea de desarrollo sostenible y su falta de concreción. Una inconcreción debida al uso verborreico que se le ha ido dando a dicha expresión, lo que ha favorecido el hecho de que originariamente su contenido fuera inespecífico y, por ende, inútil para evitar los males del desarrollismo y sus efectos sobre la sociedad. De ahí la proliferación de planteamientos que, al no tratarse de críticas radicales, tampoco son capaces de mostrarse como alternativas a la argumentación oficial. Esto debido a una falta de atención a los presupuestos fundamentales que lo constituyen, como mostraremos a partir de un análisis crítico del discurso de las fuentes originarias —principalmente resoluciones de la Asamblea General y otros documentos de las Naciones Unidas— respecto del tema que aquí nos ocupará en lo sucesivo, hasta centrar la atención en asuntos menos especulativos y sí más obligados a acciones directas de respeto y cuidado hacia las personas y sus circunstancias como presupuestos para la concordia.
Democracia y guerra civil: ciudadanía y establecimiento de la paz en Costa de Marfil
Authors: Bah Abu Bakarr , López de Mesa Julián
Published: July 2020

La guerra civil en Costa de Marfil presenta características únicas en relación con las causas de las guerras civiles y la naturaleza de los procesos de paz en África occidental. Es un conflicto impulsado, en gran parte, por agravios políticos y sociales concretos sobre la ciudadanía. Además, está marcado por un esfuerzo significativo por parte de los beligerantes para apropiarse del proceso de paz y negociar directamente. Este artículo rastrea la guerra civil hasta la politización de la ciudadanía y el origen étnico durante el proceso de democratización. Sostiene que los acuerdos de paz elaborados por la comunidad internacional no lograron poner fin al conflicto porque se basaron, en gran medida, en las fórmulas de paz tradicionales y prestaron atención insuficiente al tema subyacente de la ciudadanía. En contraste, el acuerdo de paz forjado por los marfileños ha sido relativamente exitoso, porque abordó directamente el tema de la ciudadanía y restableció la propiedad nacional del proceso de paz. Este artículo se centra en el proceso de paz y la relación intrínseca entre la ciudadanía y el progreso hacia la paz en Costa de Marfil. Además, conecta el discurso sobre la democracia en África con el tema principal de la ciudadanía, y subraya la relación fluida entre ciudadanía y democracia en la política africana.

Two Unpublished 19th Century Ethiopian Letters: From Emperor Tewodros to Sir Robert Napier, and from Däǧǧazmač Nǝguśe to Naib Hasän Bey
Authors: Pankhurst Richard
Published: July 2020

The two letters here published supplement those in Sven Rubenson’s invaluable compilation “Tewodros and his Contemporaries”. The first letter throws intriguing light on Emperor Tewodros’s remarkably amical attitude to the British in the run-up to his military confrontation with them at Mäqdäla. The second letter, the background to which has still to be established, may be regarded as a contribution to our knowledge of däǧǧazmač Nǝguśe’s rule in Tǝgray.

Authors: Gori Alessandro
Published: July 2020

The article deals with the contribution of two contemporary Muslim Ethiopian scholars (šayḫ ʿAbd al-Bāṣiṭ b. Muḥammad b. Ḥasan al-Mināsī and šayḫ Muḥammad Amīn b. ʿAbdallāh al-Iṯyubī al-Hararī al-Muḥammadī) to the study of Arabic grammar. The position of this subject in the curricula of traditional Islamic education in Ethiopia is shortly described from both a diachronic and a synchronic perspective. The biography of the two learned men is analyzed with a special emphasis on the different phases of their training and on the literary outcomes of their activity. Finally, the main handbooks used in the Islamic educational centres in Ethiopia are listed to give the reader a clear idea of the frame in which the aspiring šayḫ-s and their masters study and teach.

African-Americans and the Italo–Ethiopian Crisis, 1935–1936: The Practical Dimension of Pan-Africanism
Authors: Erhagbe Edward O. , Ifidon Ehimika A.
Published: July 2020

In a world where the Negro groped for recognition, Ethiopia (Abyssinia), with its ancient institutions and sovereignty virtually intact, was a symbol of racial pride and achievement. This Ethiopia was however invaded by Italy in 1935. It was a racial interpretation that the Negro world gave the Italian invasion. African-American interest in Africa which hitherto had been romantic and sentimental, with the Italian invasion became practical, and in this case designed to strengthen Ethiopian resistance. In the end, African-American contribution, though symbolically significant, was paltry. This can be accounted for by the relative poverty of African-Americans, and the time and cultural distance separating them from Africa.
Aufstockung des äthiopischen Handschriftenbestandes zweier deutscher Bibliotheken
Authors: Six Veronika
Published: July 2020

Two German libraries which hold collections of Oriental manuscripts again have enlarged their stock of Ethiopian manuscripts. The Berlin State Library: there is a dated Sǝnkǝssar representing the still living manuscript tradition. Without concrete dating (which exists) a cataloguer surely might come to a wrong judgment concerning the date of writing the manuscript, but the date is clear: 20th cent. The second manuscript is a gift from Professor Dr. Walter W. Müller (Marburg): the unbound parchment leaves contain chronicles in Amharic concerning the history of Ethiopia and Šäwa written in the second half of the 19th cent. Then a collection of Hymns (Sälam), a Psalter and a small manuscript containing a text which is used as protection of the soul either during funeral rites or – as it is the case here – as a separate text serving the daily protection of a human being. The second library: the University Library Tübingen with a long tradition of collecting Oriental and Ethiopic manuscripts as well, now has acquired two manuscripts: a dated Mäzmurä Dawit of the second half of the 19th cent. which also represents the manuscript tradition at its best and a parchment scroll containing prayers for protecting a female person, but in which the originally restricted purpose has been changed into a general protective function.
Queen Ṭǝru Wärq’s Necklace
Authors: Pankhurst Richard
Published: July 2020

Miscellaneous ArticleThe article, which traces the Ethiopian history of beads and necklaces, focuses on an unpublished necklace which belonged to Emperor Tewodros’s consort Queen Ṭǝru Wärq. Acquired by Robert Napier, apparently after her death in 1868, it was presented by Napier to the then British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli. The necklace, though unique, is in Ethiopia’s necklace tradition; and utilizes the country’s three main traditional types of jewellery: silver caskets, silver filigree, and glass beads. A work of some sophistication it is not without artistic, as well as historical interest.

It outlines the various strategies and tactics the Emperor of Ethiopia employed to regain control over his empire. The text also asserts that he engaged in a pre-Cold War variant of the policy of flexible response which permitted him to resist British military rule without provoking a violent response from his occupier. The text highlights a handful of the numerous tactics and strategies which were employed by indigenous leaders and their allies not only in Africa but also throughout the developing world to successfully resist European colonial rule during and after World War II.
Amharische Syntax in späten Originalwerken des Gǝʿǝz
Authors: Sima †; herausgegeben von Michael Waltisberg Alexander
Published: July 2020

[Wal.: The Gǝʿǝz syntax of the Sälamat, short poems which were added to the text of the Synaxarium at a later date, shows features that are known from modern Ethiosemitic languages, especially Amharic. This applies in particular to the preposing of the adjective and the genitive within the noun phrase, the final position of the verb in the matrix as well as the dependent clause, the fronting of dependent clauses before their matrix clause and the occasional use of circumpositions. In addition, as a specific poetic feature, the use of the feminine relative marker instead of the masculine is briefly demonstrated. The late Alexander Sima discusses all these phenomena and presents numerous examples from the Sälamat.]

The Fall of Tsähafé Teʾezaz Wäldä-Giyorgis: Reminiscences of the Victim
Authors: Zewde Bahru
Published: July 2020

The fall in 1955 of Tsähafé Teʾezaz Wäldä-Giyorgis Wäldä-Yohannes was an event of special importance in the political history of imperial Ethiopia. For nearly a decade and a half after 1941, Wäldä-Giyorgis had exercised power and influence second only to that of Emperor Haylä-Sellasé. Yet, this very power and influence seems to have contributed to his undoing. Those who were shunted aside or feared his growing powers joined forces to estrange him from the emperor and bring about his downfall. The document printed here provides a personal account of the central character, Wäldä-Giyorgis himself, on the buildup to the final moment in May 1955, when he was removed from his powerful position to that of a provincial governor. It underscores the central role played in that downfall by his erstwhile ally, Mäkonnen Habtä-Wäld, as well as the attempt of Church authorities to mediate between the emperor and the powerful minister. Above all, the document gives us a rare insight into the relationship between emperor and minister and the trauma that the breach represented to both. Further, the outward decorum and civility that pervaded the entire proceedings of what must have been a grave political crisis provides a striking contrast to the brusqueness, not to say brutality, with which political opponents – real or imagined – were disposed of in post-1974 Ethiopia.
Ethiopia and the Great Transformation
Authors: Pankhurst Richard
Published: July 2020

The article considers Karl Polanyi’s thesis that 19th century Western capitalism was unique in basing itself on the principle of gain, as expressed by the  self-regulating market system. Polanyi’s argument is examined in the light of Ethiopian historical experience, with special reference to land and labour (including slavery), agricultural production, control over trade and prices, and traditional institutions which curtail or serve as an alternative to market factors. These include church holidays, compulsory hospitality, state banquets, alms giving, and, more generally, asceticism and resignation to the Will of God.

Published: July 2020

This study aimed to isolate and identify enterococci obtained from fresh faecal swabs of 16 healthy dogs. Following molecular identification, all isolates were screened against the most critical virulence factors as well as enterocin (bacteriocin) determinants to confirm that the isolated enterococcus was safe to be used as host-specific probiotic. Enterococcus faecium was isolated and confirmed in 8 out of the 16 samples. Regarding the assessment of the virulence determinants, E. faecium strains were negative for tested (gelE and esp) virulence genes. Furthermore, the genome was evaluated for the incidence of five known enterocin genes by specific PCR amplification. Four strains encoding entAS-48 gene were found, while only one strain harboured the entL50A/B gene. Based on these results, five of the E. faecium isolated in this study were considered as promising probiotic candidates for dogs.

Optimal parameters of dynamic vibration absorber for linear damped rotary systems subjected to harmonic excitation
Authors: Phuc Vu Duc , Canh Tong Van , Lieu Pham Van
Published: July 2020

Dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) is a simple and effective device for vibration absorption used in many practical applications. Determination of suitable parameters for DVA is of significant importance to achieve high vibration reduction effectiveness. This paper presents a   method to find the optimal parameters of a DVA attached to a linear damped rotary system excited by harmonic torque. To this end, a closed-form formula for the optimum tuning parameter is derived using the fixed-point theory based on an assumption that the damped rotary systems are lightly or moderately damped. The optimal damping ratio of DVA is found by solving a set of non-linear equations established by the Chebyshev's min-max criterion. The performance of the proposed optimal DVA is compared with that obtained by existing optimal solution in literature. It is shown that the proposed optimal parameters are possible to obtain superior vibration suppression compared to existing optimal formula. Extended simulations are carried out to examine the performance of the optimally designed DVA and the sensitivity of the optimum parameters. The simulation results show that the improvement of the vibration performance on damped rotary system can be as much as 90% by using DVA.

Published: July 2020

Research background. Food proteins and polysaccharides can be used for the synthesis of nano-scale biopolymer particles with potential applications in the fields of food and pharmaceuticals. This study focuses on utilizing legume proteins for the production of biopolymer particles via regulation of their electrostatic interactions with carrageenan. Experimental approach. Protein isolates were obtained from mung bean (Vigna radiata), cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and black gram (Vigna mungo) and their protein profiles were determined. Next, these isolates were allowed to interact with carrageenan at pH=5.0-7.0 to determine optimum conditions for obtaining nano-scale biopolymer particles. Selected biopolymer mixtures were then subjected to a heat treatment (85 °C for 20 min) to enhance the interactions among biopolymers. Results and conclusions. Nano-scale biopolymer complexes were obtained at pH=6.5. They were roughly spherical in shape with a majority having a diameter in the range of approx. 100-150 nm. Heating of the biopolymer mixtures increased the diameter of the biopolymer particles by approx. 2.5-fold. In addition, their negative surface charge was increased, stabilizing them against aggregation over a broader pH range (4.0-7.0), enhancing their potential to be utilized in food matrices. Novelty and scientific contribution. This study reports the applicability of mung bean, cowpea and black gram proteins for the synthesis of stable biopolymer particles. These biopolymer particles can be potentially used for the encapsulation and delivery of bioactive components.

Authors: Anselmini Priscila , Cristianetti Jessica
Published: July 2020

O objetivo geral do presente trabalho é explorar os aspectos teóricos à luz das teorias de Habermas e Fraser, a fim de verificar soluções para o reconhecimento e proteção dos direitos das minorias. Assim, num primeiro momento, o trabalho ressalta o conceito de minoria, pelo estudo dos critérios quantitativo e qualitativo. Em seguida, abordar-se-ão os aspectos teóricos propostos por Jürgen Habermas, no qual tenta possibilitar voz aos indivíduos por meio do procedimento democrático e da teoria do discurso, sendo legitimador do direito e do poder administrativo. Por fim, o trabalho verifica a teoria da justiça tridimensional e o conceito de contrapúblicos subalternos construídos por Nancy Fraser, apresentando críticas à teoria de Habermas, defendendo a necessidade de reconhecimento e redistribuição, também no plano da política, para as minorias, a fim de possuírem paridade participativa na vida pública. O problema coloca-se da seguinte forma: Qual o alcance das teorias de Habermas e Fraser para o reconhecimento e proteção dos grupos minoritários? Qual destas teorias se mostra mais eficiente no que tange ao direito de minorias? A ideia, então, é explorar os aspectos teóricos dos ensinamentos de Habermas e Fraser, a fim de verificar qual teoria pode traçar melhores perspectivas para o reconhecimento e proteção dos direitos das minorias. A pesquisa se estrutura pelo método hipotético-dedutivo, abordagem qualitativa e a técnica de pesquisa é de pesquisa bibliográfico-documental.

I selected these poems from the manuscript of “Preowned Odysseys and Rented Rooms," my poetry collection-in-the-making. It records a pilgrimage where mortality and mobility characterize the wayfarer’s condition. He makes a journey that ultimately leads nowhere, and he travels second class in used conveyances to reach his destination. But, as he saunters along, the pilgrim himself changes, not his destination. He finds the end of the road in each step of the way and becomes the one he is.

O artigo analisa dimensões de um projeto desenvolvido no Brasil nos anos 2000 para atender aos jovens pobres e em situação de exclusão escolar, aqueles que por um elenco de fatores não conseguiram terminar o ensino fundamental, ou seja, os nove anos de escolaridade que abrangem esse nível de ensino. Abordamos aqui alguns aspectos do Programa Nacional de Inclusão de Jovens – ProJovem. A análise focaliza as seguintes questões: Em que consistiu esse programa? Qual a repercussão do Projovem na produção acadêmica brasileira? Quais os limites e os avanços desse Programa para a superação dos problemas enfrentados pelos jovens com baixa escolaridade? Assim, o texto tem o objetivo de refletir sobre a função de uma política pública com importância histórica, voltada para atender a uma parcela significativa da população brasileira, e, nesse contexto, como a pesquisa acadêmica contribui para a compreensão dos desafios da juventude, que ainda vive em condição abstrata de cidadania, para efetivamente se constituir, como preconiza a legislação, protagonista e formada por sujeitos de direitos.Palavras-chave: Projovem; Juventude; Produção acadêmica.ABSTRACT: The article analyzes the dimensions of a project developed in Brazil in 2000 to serve poor young people who are excluded from school, those who, due to a list of factors, could not finish elementary school, that is, the nine years of schooling that cover this level. education. Here we address some aspects of the National Youth Inclusion Program - ProJovem. The analysis focused on the following questions: What did this program consist of? What is the impact of Projovem on Brazilian academic production? What are the limits and advances of this program to overcome the problems faced by young people with low education? Our goal is to reflect on the role of a public policy with historical importance aimed at serving a significant portion of the Brazilian population, and in this context, how academic research can contribute to the understanding of youth challenges, which still live an abstract condition.

A new method to predict average flow velocity and conveyance capacity of meandering streams
Authors: Gamboa-Monge Cristopher Alexander , Ferreira-da-Silva Ana Maria , Segura-Serrano Laura , Guzmán-Arias Isabel
Published: July 2020

This paper aims to be a contribution to the evaluation of the resistance factor of the alluvial meandering streams of natural origin. The well-known “divided resistance” approach, commonly adopted nowadays for straight streams with a bed covered by ripples and dunes is extended to include an additional term that considers the resistance due to the meandering of the stream. For the present analysis, 40 laboratory experiments and 285 field observations are evaluated, where it is found that the contribution of the meandering of the stream to its overall resistance may vary from negligible to very substantial, which depends on the stream geometric and flow conditions.

In addition, it is determined that the most influential components for the resistance factor in meandering conditions depend on the relation between channel-averaged flow depth (hav) and the average grain size of the bed material (D50), the deflection angle of a meandering flow at the crossover Oi (θ0), and also the relation between flow width (B) and the channel-averaged flow depth (hav); these relations are used to develop a mathematical expression capable to predict the resistance to flow due to the meandering of the stream. It is shown that the equation introduced in this paper leads to considerably improved predictions of average flow velocity and conveyance capacity of meandering streams, which is of significance for an improved management of inland waterways.
La arquitectura moderna en la producción de la gran ciudad : Chile 1930-1970
Authors: Torrent Schneider Horacio
Published: July 2020

En Chile la arquitectura moderna estuvo directamente asociada a la producción del fenómeno urbano durante el siglo xx, y dio forma a la ciudad incluso más allá del espacio construido, reflejando las condiciones de un nuevo estado de situación social y promoviendo nuevas formas de vida posibilitadas por el desarrollo técnico, económico y material. Se propone aquí una revisión de los aportes de la arquitectura moderna a la construcción de la dinámica urbana propia de la gran ciudad, por medio de categorías conceptuales trazadas a partir de la comprensión de las principales obras del patrimonio moderno del país. Las categorías propuestas abarcan tanto a los edificios propios del capital inmobiliario, en directa relación con la construcción de la gran ciudad moderna, como también a los equipamientos que acompañaron el desarrollo de las ciudades a lo largo del país, la reconstrucción de las ciudades que siguió a los terremotos, la promoción del territorio a través de desarrollos económicos, las acciones particulares que promovieron actividades económicas específicas y las acciones de vivienda pública.
Conjunto Moderno da Pampulha no contexto do Patrimonio Mundial da Humanidade

El Conjunto Moderno Pampulha, proyectado por Oscar Niemeyer en 1942 y construido en 1942-43, en Belo Horizonte, Brasil es considerada una de las obras más importantes del período inicial de la arquitectura moderna brasileña, en conjunto con el edificio del Ministerio de Educación y Salud (Lúcio Costa y equipo: Leão, Moreyra, Niemeyer, Reidy y Vasconcellos, 1936-1945) y el pabellón de Brasil en la Exposición de Nueva York de 1939 (Costa, Niemeyer y Wiener).En 2014 Pampulha se convirtió en un bien candidato a ser incluido en la Lista de Patrimonio Mundial de UNESCO, evaluación cuyo resultado se espera para el año 2016. Este texto propone presentar los principales atributos de los edificios que componen este bien y su condición de conjunto urbano; situarlo en el contexto histórico en el que fue hecho; llevar a cabo un análisis comparativo que lo ubique entre los otros bienes enumerados por la UNES CO, así como de otras obras no mencionados pero que estén en condiciones o ubicación geográfica comparable.El objetivo es acercar al público los argumentos principales que intervienen en dicha aplicación y discutir dónde se sitúa Pampulha en la historiografía de la arquitectura moderna.

En este nuevo número contamos con el valioso aporte de investigadores nacionales e internacionales. El doctor Ramón Vicente Díaz del Campo Martín Mantero presenta el trabajo de Miguel Fisac y la expresividad del hormigón armado. Ms. Mariana Rodríguez Orte desarrolla los atractivos de la vida suburbana. La arquitecta Ana Paula Rial indaga sobre las búsquedas paisajísticas de Leandro Silva Delgado. Y por último Dr. Tyana Santini reflexiona sobre la realidad urbana japonesa.Por otro lado, se mantiene la política de difusión de trabajos de arquitectos egresados de la Facultad y la reformulación en formato de artículo de sus tesis finales de carrera. En esta instancia las arquitectas Cecilia Álvarez Rosamina, Jimena Chaibún Kanopa y Anna Rearte Amorós presentan los sistemas de objetos como conformadores del espacio arquitectónico contemporáneo. A su vez, los arquitectos Sebastián Amorelli y Lucía Bacigalupi analizan la importancia de la hibridación arquitectónica y la potenciación en urbanidad que provoca en el caso de Steven Holl.El Consejo Editorial y la Dirección reiteran su invitación a los investigadores a presentar sus trabajos que posibiliten, en las próximas entregas, una vez analizados y evaluados, acrecentar el intercambio conceptual y la difusión de la arquitectura iberoamericana.
El lugar de los [objetos]. El sistema de objetos como conformador de espacio arquitectónico en la contemporaneidad

Tanto las condiciones de la sociedad de consumo como los avances acelerados de las tecnologías aplicadas a nuestros objetos tienen como consecuencia la producción de un mundo de cambios vertiginosos donde rige la inestabilidad. En la contemporaneidad sentimos la necesidad de consumir y adquirir objetos para generar identidad y así satisfacer el deseo de no perdernos en el anonimato. En este contexto, resulta relevante observar si existe un replanteo de la arquitectura tradicional dado por la importancia que cobran los objetos en nuestras vidas. De eso nace nuestro interés por indagar en el presente artículo sobre la construcción del espacio arquitectónico bajo un sistema de relaciones entre los objetos, el hombre y los elementos tradicionalmente arquitectónicos. Esto nos permitirá observar el espacio no como un lugar previo a su ocupación por las personas, sino como un todo unitario y complejo. No habría, así, arquitecturas por un lado y objetos por otro, sino que existe la posibilidad de pensar el espacio contemporáneo como resultado de una combinación entre ambos elementos.
Análisis de las principales tendencias aparecidas en TikTok durante el periodo de cuarentena por la COVID-19

Published: July 2020

Introducción: TikTok ha sido una de las redes sociales más usada por los usuarios más jóvenes durante el confinamiento por la COVID-19. Objetivo: Analizar las principales tendencias y vídeos publicados en la plataforma durante el periodo de cuarentena. Metodología: Se analizaron los contenidos y tendencias principales publicados en TikTok durante 25 días de confinamiento desde el 9 de abril al 3 de mayo de 2020. Se presenta un análisis cualitativo y cuantitativo de tendencias y retos virales relacionados con la COVID-19. Resultados: El estudio presenta un modelo de generación de contenidos y viralización de éstos totalmente novedoso, a partir de la presentación de unos contenidos que, aparentemente, no son útiles, no cambian el mundo ni la vida de los ciudadanos, y presentando productos vacíos y basados exclusivamente en la diversión y la imitación. Conclusiones: Frente a las acciones generadas en otras redes para la factura de mascarillas y pantallas, TikTok sólo ha aportado humor y entretenimiento. Sin embargo, bajo una aparente capa de superficialidad y frivolidad, se puede descubrir una foto fija de nuestra sociedad de puertas adentro.
COVID-19 en portada: radiografía ética de la cobertura fotográfica de la pandemia en España
Authors: Maciá-Barber Carlos
Published: July 2020

Introducción: La cobertura informativa de las emergencias sanitarias se enfrenta a la tentación de sucumbir al alarmismo y el morbo. Objetivos: El propósito de la investigación fue valorar el grado de cumplimiento de los principios éticos del periodismo en la información sobre la COVID-19 en las portadas de la prensa española. Metodología: Análisis de contenido de las fotografías de portadas (n=344), publicadas entre el 1 de enero y el 15 de abril de 2020 (n=608) en periódicos de información general (n=6) cuya difusión abarca el 43,9% del número total de lectores diarios. Resultados: El 3,5% de imágenes cuestionó o vulneró preceptos deontológicos, en especial con relación al derecho a la intimidad y a la propia imagen. La cobertura resultó apropiada dado que no fueron significativas las violaciones en torno al dolor y sufrimiento, el alarmismo, la presunción de inocencia, la seguridad o la presión política. Conclusiones: El despliegue gráfico resultó contenido, respetuoso y se optó por amplias instantáneas metafóricas. Los mecanismos de protección frente a la pandemia —equipos de protección individual (EPI), mascarillas o gafas— dificultaban con frecuencia el reconocimiento de los protagonistas. Además, se recurrió con profusión al pixelado del rostro para impedir la identificación personal.
