De la hacienda a la comunidad: la sierra de Piura, 1934-1990
Authors: Irurozqui Victoriano Marta
Published: February 2024

KAREN APEL:  Lima, IEP-CNRS-IFEA, 1996. Uno de los temas centrales de la investigación antropológica, histórica y económica del Perú desde los años sesenta han sido las comunidades indígenas o campesinas. Sin embargo, el empleo de ejemplos provenientes exclusivamente de los Andes centrales y sureños ha dado lugar a modelos difíciles de aplicar a la zona norte del país. Los pocos estudios que hay sobre ella coinciden en que los rasgos "típicos" de la cultura andina son muy débiles y casi inexistentes en la región piurana de Frías, que es el objeto de estudio de Karen Apel. El propósito de esta autora es analizar las transformaciones fundamentales experimentadas por el sector agrario en Piura. Mediante la insistencia y demostración de la particularidad de la sierra norte del Perú, intenta reconstruir la situación de los campesinos dependientes de las haciendas y su conversión en comuneros.
Technopols: Freeing Politics and Markets in Latin America in the 1990s. JORGE I. DOMÍNGUEZ (ed.): University Park, PA: The Pennsylvania State University Press, 1997.
Authors: Herold Conrad M. , Rodriguez Leopoldo
Published: February 2024

This book will remain one of the most thorough studies of the individuals involved in the contemporary age of liberalization in Latin America. It is an important contribution to our understanding of the early 1990s, executed with impeccable scholarship, graceful style and balanced elegance. The bulk of the text consists of five uniformly excellent and detailed studies of the intellectual formation and the political interventions of five Latin American leaders. They are "technopols," that is, highly trained individuals --four of the five are economists-- who go beyond being mere technocrats by merit of their vigorous and adroit participation in political life. Indeed, what makes a technopol is his or her acceptance of the need to legitimize their agendas through political participation. The technopol does not disdain the "inefficiencies" of politics, on the contrary, the technopol has understood the eventual inefficiency and limitations of technocrats and technocracy. Technopols understand the need to make good economics (or necessary economics) politically viable and sustainable, and "have fashioned economic policies guided by their political analysis of the circumstances of their respective countries..." Thus, they "design economic policies by understanding politics first." We are tempted to think of them as a second generation of neoliberals, who have learned from the failures and disasters of the early neoliberal radicals.
Based on a True Story: Latin American History at the Movies. DONALD F. STEVENS (ed.): Wilmington, Delaware: SR Books, 1997.
Authors: Rein Raanan
Published: February 2024

Anyone who has ever had to teach an introductory course in colonial or modern Latin American history has grappled with the question of whether to use historical films, and if so, to what extent. The historian's aversion to films as a way of depicting the past is well known. Nevertheless, today's teachers are increasingly attracted to the use of films as an incentive to study history, recognizing that more and more undergraduates have trouble coping with large quantities of reading and that "more people today get their history in movie theaters, from broadcast and cable television, and on prerecorded videocassette tapes than from reading print" (p. 4). What is more, one need not be a post-modernist to feel uncomfortable with the idea that "fact" and "fiction" are clearly distinguishable categories.
La cura del espíritu por el espíritu: la santidad y los hongos

Desde tiempos inmemoriales, los humanos consideraron como dioses o como materia divina a la planta que ingerían para vivir: el maíz fue sagrado, el material divino con el cual se hizo al hombre. Mas hubo otras plantas sagradas, aquellas hoy conocidas como psicotrópicas, plantas que alejan al que las usa de lo cotidiano y permiten ver y sentir realidades que irrumpen desde un mundo sacro y desconocido.

L’enseignement en classes de langues au Cameroun : entre autorité épistémique et autorité didactique
Authors: Daouaga Samari Gilbert
Published: February 2024

In classroom, teachers are expected to help their students acquire the knowledge and build the skills they need for their intellectual development and professional integration. As such, they have statutory authority to take responsability for the education and training of these students. This authority is devolved to him by the educational training school and by the state. Consequently, teachers are responsible for the quality of the teaching they provide ; more precisely, it’s up to them to validate the knowledge they produce, which they are supposed to have and which gives them epistemic authority. The teachers’ academic knowledge can only be useful for his didactic action if he succeeds in having it learned through didactic situations designed for this purpose : it is this skills that gives him didactic authority. The aim of this paper is to study the ways in which language teachers use the two forms of authority (epistemic and didactic), and the consequences of doing so. Drawing on lessons in French and national languages and cultures, this qualitative reflection analyzes how the temporarily loss of one of these authorities can hinder learning activities. This work concludes that these two forms of authority need to be combined and taken into account in teacher training, so as to prepare teachers to mobilize them simultaneously in classroomsituations for the benefit of language learners.

Authors: Ratna Ratna Damayanti Siantur , Dede Dede J Sudrajat
Published: February 2024

The aim of this research is to assess the correlation of morphological characteristics of nyamplung seedling (Calophyllum inophyllum L) on field growth of two years age after outplanting in Parungpanjang, Bogor. Three seedlots collected from Carita, Pangandaran and Purworejo were grown in seedbeds with different ages (four months and six months). The seedlings are mixed and grouped according to their height and root collar diameter. Each group of seedlings is divided into 5 height classes and each class is divided into two diameter classes, so there are 10 classes of seed morphology. The parameters of seedling were observed on sturdirness quotient, dry weight, root length, shoot-root ratio, and number of leaves. The seedlings were planted in randomized completely block design (three seeds origins, 10 morphological class, three blocks, 30 seedlings per block). Seedling survival, height, and root collar diameter growth were assessed on two years after outplanting. The result showed that morphological classification affected on seedling survival, height and root collar diameter growth. Seedling height and root collar diameter were significantly correlated with other parameters and also with field growth. Two-year-old Nyamplung on field can grow significantly if we use seedling with a height above 31 cm and a diameter more than 5.1 mm. In addition, the ratio of height and diameter and seed quality index are become important consideration in seed selection.

Understanding local community perceptions towards ecotourism is important since community has a crucial role in determining sustainable ecotourism. This research aimed to identify community perceptions towards impacts of ecotourism as well as to analyse the relationships between perception and ecotourism responsible behaviour. Other goal of this study was to analyse the relationship between ecotourism responsible behaviour and social factors. Data was collected in 4 villages adjacent to the Balikpapan bay, namely Maridan, Telemow, Binuang, and Mentawir. We used the quota technique to sample respondents. For each village, we took 40 respondents randomly. Data was then analysed using descriptive statistics, Spearman correlation, and Kruskal Wallis test. We found that community around the Balikpapan Bay thought that ecotourism was able to bring positive impacts for village and community. A Kruskal Wallis test revealed that there was no significant difference regarding perceptions among 4 villages. We found that there was a correlation between ecotourism responsible behaviour and gender. Implications of community’s perceptions to ecotourism development around the Balikpapan bay were then discussed.

Authors: Freddy Freddy Jontara Hutapea , Kuswandi Relawan Kuswandi
Published: February 2024

The volume estimation model is one of the most important components in developing sustainable forest management. Nowadays, various models for various types of forests in Indonesia have developed. Nevertheless, these models do not represent the type of forest ecosystem in Papua. Therefore,  numerous studies are still needed to develop volume estimation model for various types of forests in Papua. This study was aimed to develop timber volume estimation model for commercial tree species in logging concession of PT. Tunas Timber Lestari in Sesnukt District, Boven Digul Regency, Papua Province. A total of 164 trees were chosen to develop the model and 50 trees for model validation. The result showed that diameter did not have a strong correlation with tree height. Therefore, the model should be developed using the combination of diameter and tree height. The best model in the development stage was selected based on the value of coefficient of determination (R2), standard error of the estimate (SEE), and Ftest. The best model in the validation stage was selected based on the value of bias (e), root mean square errors (RMSE), average deviation (SR), aggregative deviation (SA), and χ2test.. The best model for timber volume estimation in PT. Tunas Timber Lestari are V = 0.00007594 D1.978 H0.923.

Journal of Forest Business Research: a leading platform for advancing forest business and investment science research
Authors: Siry Jacek , Chudy Rafał , Mei Bin , Cubbage Frederick
Published: February 2024

The Journal of Forest Business Research (JFBR), an international peer-reviewed and open-access journal, has been developed to offer a novel publication avenue for forest business research contributions. This effort has been motivated by the realization that there were no dedicated forest business scientific journals in existence and the need to have a scientific journal to support growing volume of forest business research. The journal aims to effectively meet the needs of contributors and readers by bringing together academic and professional business research in forestry. The following section describes why there is a need for the JFBR and what makes this journal a leading platform for advancing forest business and investment science research. Then, we summarize all the papers included in our two issues in 2023. This year, we delivered to hands of our readers over 340 pages of high-quality forest business and investment science research. The articles published in 2023 discussed, among others, forest carbon and its contribution to total timberland investment returns, capital investment and annual expenditures related to forests in the United States (U.S.), wood pellet manufacturing industry from residents’ perspectives in the U.S. South, discount rates in forest management decisions, the effect of various COVID-19 policies on standing timber prices in the U.S. South, the relationships between innovation constructs and demographic and management attributes of wood furniture firms in Kenya, the economic feasibility of silviculture investments to reduce butt rot and ungulate browse damage in Canada, the sustainability of the production, processing, and exporting systems of frankincense (Boswellia papyrifera) in Ethiopia, and the development of the Iranian wood products industry over the past two decades. All these articles truly show the international character of forest business research. In the final section, we indicate what types of articles we are seeking and how you can support our efforts.
Imagined reality, the liquid, dystopia, and virtuality in science fiction cinema: Don’t Worry Darling, a case study
Authors: Calvete-Lorenzo Sara , Rozados-Lorenzo Andrés , Sosa-Fernández Rocío del Pilar
Published: February 2024

The history of cinema has never shied away from the representation of the future, and beyond the abstract nature of the contemporary concept and its temporal fluctuations, the sheer profusion of scenarios and their different links to the very concept of the real have generated a wide range of futuristic film references, especially those conceptually linked to the dystopian. This article presents a case study of Don’t Worry Darling, directed by Olivia Wilde in 2022. It is a contemporary science fiction film proposal that condenses retro aestheticism and the American Way of Life with the historical proposals of science fiction and its forecasts about humanity’s connection or disconnection with sensory reality and the birth of virtuality. The analytical methodology, which links patriarchal dystopia, virtual reality and gender studies, is based on the analysis of differentiating elements that provide signs with which to question the reality of the experiences of the film’s main character and the environment that surrounds her. This research employs a qualitative analysis by means of case analysis with a dual approach: the audiovisual language and signs of gaps in the filmic reality created. Firstly, the audiovisual language will be analysed through the use of the decoupage technique and, secondly, the sequences that generate gaps in the filmic fiction and lead the spectator to realize that he or she is facing a simulation of reality will be organized. The anomalies identified and inferred have been subdivided for analysis into: unrealistic space/time (synchronizations and repetitions, duplications, spatial incongruities, logical errors and perfections), mediated reality and the eye metaphor and, finally, diegetic technological analysis.
La digitalización del espacio escenográfico en la Fura dels Baus. De la calle al espectáculo digital
Authors: Barba Rodríguez Daniel
Published: February 2024

El análisis de La Fura dels Baus nos muestra hasta qué punto la superación de una metodología neovanguardista en favor del espectáculo audiovisual de gran formato es una actualización que busca dar respuesta a los intereses estéticos de la sociedad del siglo XXI. Un nuevo espacio escénico protagonizado por la imagen que combina multitud de formatos, tanto físicos como digitales. La Fura ejemplifica cómo una idea de espacio va más allá de una simple distribución de elementos y debe entenderse como parte integral de la creación artística. Si a esto le añadimos un empleo coherente de tecnología, se logra un modo de relación entre el público y la acción dramática acorde a la estética de su momento. En el caso de La Fura, desde su origen en Cataluña en torno a 1978, se debe hablar de tres etapas vitales diferentes (agrupación callejera, gremio y compañía de teatro), cada una con su propia idea de espacio acorde: el espacio comunitario de la calle, el espacio compartido de las performances y el espacio visual del espectáculo contemporáneo. Gracias a La Fura dels Baus podemos entender mejor el papel de los espectáculos audiovisuales en la estética contemporánea.
Artivismo mediático y subversión de género en Corea del Sur: la «tecnología de la imaginación» de Siren Eun Young Jung
Authors: Sonia Sonia , Martínez Pérez Natalia , Sarmentera Bárbara
Published: February 2024

El artivismo mediático, como forma de producción de conocimiento, no solo permite recuperar y reflexionar en torno a la información a través de una amplia diversidad de manifestaciones y prácticas artísticas, sino que, además, ejerce un impacto en el público global. Por ello, esta tendencia artística, la primera del siglo XXI, sirve de plataforma para que mujeres y minorías proyecten su voz desde la resistencia, evidenciando intereses activistas con el fin de propiciar una transformación en la sociedad. Precisamente, la artista surcoreana Siren Eun Young Jung es un reconocido ejemplo en Corea del Sur que, a través del videoarte y la performance, sigue dando continuidad a su propósito más longevo: Yeoseong Gukgeuk Project (2008-actualidad). Este trabajo explora el valor de la intrahistoria gracias a los recuerdos de actrices que ponen en tela de juicio los roles de género. El presente artículo examina este proyecto de artivismo mediático desde la perspectiva de género, tomando como eje su investigación en torno al Yeoseong Gukgeuk, un estilo músico-teatral que ofrece un mensaje subversivo sobre las mujeres, las minorías, la normatividad y la tradición, gracias al canto, el baile y un estricto entrenamiento. Jung, que recurre a la «tecnología de la imaginación» siendo consciente de la ausencia, en muchas ocasiones, de la imagen, compila materiales de archivo que han visto la luz a través de las obras que aglutina este proyecto.

In this article, we take the notion of ruination beyond crumbling built structures and use it to explore contemporary trashscapes. With the waste produced by humanity scaling up to encompass the entire planet, we examine life with and in the ruins of the Anthropocene, where there is no Away to which the rejectamenta could be expelled and thus set apart from humans. On the one hand, we scrutinise waste as matter in a ruined state, subject to and resulting from a process of ruination; waste is a trace of an anterior presence that remains and continues to haunt us. On the other hand, we argue that collective wastage is turning the natural environment itself into ruins and landscapes into trashscapes. Towards the end of the article, we also stress the disruptive qualities of ruination and decay and discuss the renewed sensibilities evoked by waste. A life with waste in a world of Anthropocenic ruination amounts to a life that is not in complete control of itself but rather is inextricably entangled with otherness.

Rad obrađuje povezanost između sporta, sportskih organizacija i oficirskog kadra sa ciljem da ukaže na određene povezanosti i posledice. Mnogi oficiri koji su završili Vojnu akademiju obavljali su najviše državne dužnosti u različitim oblastima (posebno su bili prisutni u sportu i sportskim institucijama ali i nastavi fizičkog vaspitanja), što dokazuje da su oficiri uticali ne samo na razvoj i napredak tadašnjih vojski u kojima su služili, već i država i institucija u celini. Istorijskom metodom istraživali smo odnose i relacije između sporta, sportskih organizacija i pripadnika oficirskog kadra, kao i uticaj društva na ove odnose. Prisutna istorijska istraživanja ukazuju da između aktivnosti pripadnika različitih vojsci država sa naših prostora (Kraljevina Srbija, Kraljevina Srba Hrvata i Slovenaca i Kralјevina Jugoslavija) i sporta i sportskih organizacija postoji neraskidiva i praktično značajna veza u vidu zajedničkih interesa i ciljeva. Teorijsko kritičkom analizom rad istražuje te odnose i ukazuje na visoki uticaj, zalagnje oficira u formiranju i radu sportskih klubova, i širenju olimpijske ideje u navedenim državama.

Broj događaja i distanci u brdskim trkama je eksponencijalno rastao. U međuvremenu, broj trkača je takođe značajno porastao. Povećano uc es će u brdskim trkama rezultiralo je povećanjem povreda trkac a. Ovo istraz ivanje ima za cilj analizu i upoređivanje (muškarci i žene) iskustva, vremena treninga i povreda zadobijenih tokom bavljenja ovim sportom. Uzorak (n=306) su činili muškarci (n=261) i žene (n=45) koji su učestvovali na trci Kanfrank – Kanfrank (Španija). Instrument koji se koristi je upitnik za profil trkača i sklonost sportskim povredama. Nije bilo značajnih razlika (p=0,01) između muških i ženskih varijabli: godina iskustva u trčanju, godine iskustva u brdskom trčanju, sati treninga i vreme nedeljno, kao i povrede u prethodne tri godine i tri meseca. Potrebna su dalja istraživanja kako bi se analizirali i uporedili muški i ženski trkači na različitim distancama i brdskim trkama.
SPONSORSHIP IN SPORTS

Sponsorship as a form of propaganda and a direct way of communicating between the company and its target group of consumers is a significant part of modern marketing strategies of market players. For a company to succeed in any global, regional, national, and even local market, it needs to differentiate itself from its competitors, create a competitive advantage, instill honesty and trust in customers, and possess a certain amount of exclusivity. Sponsorship is one of the simplest forms of marketing relations to realize programs and goals. It represents the most significant source of financial resources for many sports club owners and organizers of sports events and athletes. Classical propaganda (advertising), with outdated and ineffective methods, cannot achieve this. That type of communication is increasingly proving ineffective due to its aggressiveness, convincingness, and indirect relationship with potential consumers. This paper presents types and examples of sponsorship in the sports industry as a way in which direct contact with the target market group, exclusivity, and connection public with the sponsored activity instills security and trust in consumers. Success is almost guaranteed, especially if the sponsored event, organization, or individual achieves notable results.
Cultural and National Elements in the Works of Contemporary South Korean Artists
Authors: Antonova Aleksandra Andreevna
Published: February 2024

The subject of this study is current projects (installations, paintings, sculptures, performances) by contemporary South Korean artists that contain symbols, elements or cultural artifacts related to the local identity of the country. The article attempts to identify the main themes, motifs and techniques that are used in Korean contemporary art to emphasize the issues of the nation's self-identification within the global themes and problems of the modern world. To achieve this goal, the main South Korean artists recognized by the world art community (Kimsuja, So Do Ho, Lee Soo Kyung, Kwang Yong Chan, Pak Chang Kyung, Ham Kyuna, Yoon Seongnam) are singled out, whose work is directly related to the traditional cultural elements of their country. Their projects, themes and techniques are explored from the point of view of the interaction of global and local processes in modern society. The relevance of the work lies in an attempt to identify the unique processes taking place in contemporary South Korean art. Point studies of Asian artistic culture often include either the study of the creative path of individual artists, or the consideration of the main trends and trends. In this paper, an attempt is made to look at South Korean art from the point of view of topics and technologies that are inherent only in local Korean culture, and to identify points of contact with global issues and problems. This is the scientific novelty of the study. A number of contemporary South Korean artists create works of art based on their life experiences, directly related to the traditions of their country. Themes related to the search and reflection of cultural identity and self-identification arise in their works. The work uses both general scientific research methods: analytical and comparative, and a special method of art history: structural-functional.
"Por que aprender isso, professora?” Sentido pessoal e atividade de estudo na Psicologia Histórico-Cultural
Authors: Asbahr Flávia da Silva Ferreira
Published: February 2024

Este livro aponta alguns caminhos da pesquisa sobre como crianças entendem e vivenciam sua história escolar e quais os sentidos que atribuem à atividade de estudar. Tendo a Psicologia Histórico-Cultural como referência teórica e larga experiência em projetos da rede de educação pública e privada, Flávia da Silva Ferreira Asbahr desenvolve o trabalho em duas frentes: uma investigação bibliográfica conceitual, com sínteses teóricas sobre os conceitos de sentido pessoal e atividade de estudo; e uma investigação empírica, realizada em escola pública municipal da cidade de São Paulo, com estudantes de quarta série do ensino fundamental. A autora verifica os limites da formação de estudantes na atual organização do ensino público e lança a hipótese sobre qual seria a principal atividade formadora do pensamento teórico para grande parte dos estudantes. Apoiada na categoria da contradição, Asbahr ressalta o papel do professor nesse processo e defende que, para que a aprendizagem escolar ocorra, as ações de estudo devem ter um sentido pessoal para os estudantes.
A kinase to cytokine explorer to identify molecular regulators and potential therapeutic opportunities

Cytokines and chemokines are secreted proteins that regulate various biological processes, such as inflammation, immune response, and cell differentiation. Therefore, disruption of signaling pathways involving these proteins has been linked to a range of diseases, including cancer. However, targeting individual cytokines, chemokines, or their receptors is challenging due to their regulatory redundancy and incomplete understanding of their signaling networks. To transform these difficult-to-drug targets into a pharmacologically manageable class, we developed a web-based platform called KinCytE. This platform was designed to link the effects of kinase inhibitors, a well-established class of drugs, with cytokine and chemokine release and signaling networks. The resulting KinCytE platform enables users to investigate protein kinases that regulate specific cytokines or chemokines, generate a ranked list of FDA-approved kinase inhibitors that affect cytokine/chemokine activity, and explore and visualize cytokine signaling network thus facilitating drugging this challenging target class. KinCytE is freely accessible via https://atlas.fredhutch.org/kincyte.
Human pannexin 1 channel is not phosphorylated by Src tyrosine kinase at Tyr199 and Tyr309

Protein phosphorylation is one of the major molecular mechanisms regulating protein activity and function throughout the cell. Pannexin 1 (PANX1) is a large-pore channel permeable to ATP and other cellular metabolites. Its tyrosine phosphorylation and subsequent activation have been found to play critical roles in diverse cellular conditions, including neuronal cell death, acute inflammation, and smooth muscle contraction. Specifically, the non-receptor kinase Src has been reported to phosphorylate Tyr198 and Tyr308 of mouse PANX1 (equivalent to Tyr199 and Tyr309 of human PANX1), resulting in channel opening and ATP release. Although the Src-dependent PANX1 activation mechanism has been widely discussed in the literature, independent validation of the tyrosine phosphorylation of PANX1 has been lacking. Here, we show that commercially available antibodies against the two phosphorylation sites mentioned above—which were used to identify endogenous PANX1 phosphorylation at these two sites—are nonspecific and should not be used to interpret results related to PANX1 phosphorylation. We further provide evidence that neither tyrosine residue is a major phosphorylation site for Src kinase in heterologous expression systems. We call on the field to re-examine the existing paradigm of tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent activation of the PANX1 channel.
