Houston Solar Marker Matrix of Intentionality
Authors: Houston Gordon
Published: September 2024

Rock art is ubiquitous around the world.  The first solar interaction with rock art was in 1979 by Ken Hedges (Hudson, et al. 1979).  Solar Markers are  the most objective interpretations of rock art for the following reasons:  1) We can see the sky the same as the ancient cultures, 2) Precession does not affect the travel of the Sun along the horizon, 3) The operation of solar marker interactions operate the same today as when originally created, and 4) The recorded astronomical knowledge is usually the most closely guarded information, which the solar marker opens that knowledge to us today. 
The interplay of sun and shadow on rock art, known as “solar markers” are reported in very few areas of the world, with most being reported in the American Southwest.  The lack of reports worldwide is due in part to a lack of understanding and how to identify these solar markers.  To that end, the Houston Solar Marker Matrix of Intentionality (HSMMI) is offered as a tool for researchers to: 1) Help identify new solar markers, 2) Confirm existing solar markers, 3) Rule out coincidental interactions, and 4) lead to a worldwide database of solar markers. 
.   There are four qualifying restrictions that must be met by any reported interaction, before proceeding to evaluate an interaction using the HSMMI.   The restrictions are: 1) The solar interaction must touch and interact with the glyph, 2) The interaction must be brief, typically less than 30 minutes, 3) The culmination of the interaction must be unique, both in the design of the sun or shadow shape, and must interact with the focal point or tangent of the glyph, or some very unique part of the glyph, and 4) The solar interaction must interact with one glyph at a time.  These are established to help rule out coincidental interactions and help eliminate false positives. 
The Houston Solar Marker Matrix of Intentionality provides and analytical tool in which four categories are scored. The final score determines the strength of an existing or reported solar marker or identification of a new solar marker.  The four categories are 1) Solar Points, 2) Time of Day, 2) Interactive Characteristics, and 4) Supporting evidence.  The HSMMI is a tool that will be employed by researchers, who in turn, will bring forward new reports worldwide, so a database can be established.  The HSMMI is a tool in constant transition and updating, of which, many changes have already been incorporated to date.  It is hoped that false positives will be eliminated through the use of the HSMMI.
Ja’ab como base del currículum del Buen Vivir: aplicación en dos escuelas primarias en Tulum, Quintana Roo
Authors: May Pat Norberto , Patrick Encina Geraldine Ann , Tuz Noh Narciso
Published: September 2024

En el año 2010 la Dirección General de Educación de Educación Indígena Intercultural y Bilingüe de México comisionó a docentes para implementar planes y programas de estudio de la asignatura ‘Lengua Indígena’ a nivel de Primaria. En el caso de la Península de Yucatán, profesores comisionados se enfocaron en desarrollar un programa de estudio pertinente para la cultura maya, enmarcándolo en el Buen Vivir. Dicho programa tiene como base fundamental el conocimiento, uso y manejo del ja’ab tanto por el docente como por los estudiantes y sus familiares. Durante el ciclo escolar 2021-2022 y 2022-2023 dos profesores, coautores del programa de estudio, pusieron a prueba un modelo de ja’ab surgido de un proceso de diálogo intercultural complementado con estudios de gabinete de material epigráfico maya. A lo largo de diez años el equipo intercultural Earth Timekeepers ha trabajado en la Península de Yucatán con una metodología incluyente, exploratoria y no impositiva. Los participantes se caracterizan por ser personas mayores que trabajan en la milpa, practicanla apicultora, colectan chicle, cazan de forma tradicional, y observan los movimientos del Sol, la Luna y astros. Además hay promotores culturales, profesores de escuela, mayordomos de fiestas patronales, rezanderos Aj Menob’ estudiantes universitarios y mujeres amas de casa. Todos coinciden en que el comienzo del año Ja’ab es entre el 13 y 15 de agosto de cada año, y que meses como Keej (venado) o Tséek (calavera) se refieren a eventos de relevancia ecológica y cultural. Esto refuerza las conclusiones de los estudios que han venido realizando integrantes del equipo intercultural desde la arqueoastronomía y la epigrafía. En el contexto del programa de estudio para primaria en la Península de Yucatán enfocado en el Buen Vivir, los profesores han diseñado un conjunto de ejercicios prácticos para dos escuelas primarias. Los ejercicios comienzan con la observación del Sol en los amaneceres donde los niños registran el desplazamiento aparente del astro. A partir de ahí, asocian el evento de equinoccio del 22 septiembre con el comienzo de la veintena Sip, significando la fecha 0 Sip del propio Ja’ab. El conjunto de ejercicios incluye visitar el lugar de la comunidad donde se ubican las pilas de piedras de cuatro rumbos, y reconocer que éstos existen desde la época prehispánica. El acercamiento práctico al Ja’ab en el contexto del aula, el hogar y la comunidad, ha permitido a los niños comprender el calendario y relacionarse con él de una manera significativa, siguiendo los ciclos naturales y el Sol. Al hacerlo, docentes, padres y niños resignifican y reinterpretan el legado biocultural expresado en fiestas, rituales y actividades en la milpa y el monte.
ira del Zemi: predicción de huracanes en el Caribe por los arahuacos
Authors: Duin Renzo S.
Published: September 2024

Basándose en más de veinte años de investigación y experiencia de campo a largo plazo en el Neotrópico, este artículo sostiene la existencia de una metodología indígena para pre­decir la llegada de huracanes en el Caribe. El yacimiento arqueológico estudiado es el de Anse à la Gourde, en Guadalupe (Antillas francesas), que se analiza en conjunción con una base teórica que se apoya en la etnoastronomía y las cosmologías indígenas amazónicas. La conceptualización de este estudio se remonta a una experiencia del autor durante una escuela de campo arqueológica en 1995, y ha sido a través de la “perspectiva del habitar” que el autor ha cambiado de paradigmas y ha podido dar sentido a sus percepciones origi­nales. Durante el desarrollo de esta innovadora hipótesis sobre la predicción de huracanes por pueblos indígenas del Caribe antes de la llegada de Cristóbal Colón, ha surgido una hipótesis alternativa sobre un momento crucial en la arqueología del Caribe, específica­mente sobre el final del Saladoide, alrededor del año 800 d.C.
Interaksi antar Aktor dalam Penyelenggaraan Asian Games 2018: Bentuk Wisata Olahraga Berkelanjutan melalui Kerja Sama Multipihak
Authors: Fauzie Hanna , Virgianita Asra
Published: September 2024

Penelitian ini menganalisis kerja sama multipihak yang terjadi selama penyelenggaraan wisata acara olahraga Asian Games 2018 di Indonesia, sebagai bagian dari implementasi pariwisata berkelanjutan. Studi ini menggunakan kerangka kerja sama transaksional yang dikembangkan oleh Visseren-Hamakers et. al. (2007), yang menekankan pentingnya memahami interaksi dinamis antara aktor pemerintah, swasta, dan masyarakat dalam mencapai tujuan, terutama dalam konteks pembangunan berkelanjutan. Data yang digunakan berasal dari wawancara dengan para pemangku kepentingan terkait dan analisis studi dokumen relevan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tantangan utama dalam kerja sama multipihak adalah ketimpangan dan hierarki dalam interaksi antara aktor internasional dan nasional. Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) memiliki peran dominan dan sumber daya yang lebih kuat, namun tidak mengutamakan aspek pariwisata berkelanjutan dalam penyelenggaraan Asian Games 2018. Kelompok bisnis lebih fokus pada keuntungan daripada pembangunan berkelanjutan. Peran LSM dalam pengambilan keputusan terkait Asian Games terbatas, dan implikasi penelitian ini menggarisbawahi pentingnya keterlibatan yang lebih setara antara aktor internasional dan nasional serta penguatan peran LSM dalam mendorong implementasi pariwisata berkelanjutan dalam acara olahraga tersebut.

Published: September 2024

This article analyses the complex factors contributing to rising medical expenses, focusing on the senior citizen demographic in Malaysia. With the global aging population, notably in lower and middle-income countries, the study highlights the escalating medical and health insurance costs, driven by age, income source, modern healthcare, and geographical residence. The research draws on an extensive literature review, demographic analysis, and quantitative methods to examine these determinants. It critically analyzes Malaysia’s healthcare system, which operates on a dual-tier model, and the financial burden placed on senior citizens. The findings indicate that age, source of income, and geographical residence significantly influence medical expenses, whereas modern healthcare’s impact is not statistically significant. The study calls for government intervention, insurance industry adjustments, and private sector support to mitigate the financial strain on senior citizens. Recommendations include tax relief adjustments, National Health Insurance Scheme implementation, and employment sustainability for seniors. This research provides some recommendations to policymaking, the insurance industry, and academia by providing insights into managing the healthcare needs of an aging population sustainably.
Photography in urban studies in Greater Lomé, an objectifying approach?
Authors: Anoumou Kouassi Rodolphe , Sondou Tchakouni
Published: September 2024

More and more urban studies researchers and students are using images. This choice often stems from the need to illustrate, analyse and understand territories and urban phenomena. This contribution seeks to demonstrate, on the basis of examples drawn from scientific productions in Greater Lomé, how the photographic approach makes it possible to apprehend the urban phenomenon. Three forms of image use can be identified in the documents consulted. On the one hand, images are a source of data to support information received through observation. On the other hand, photography is a technique for collecting metadata which, when triangulated with several sources, enables a query to be answered. Finally, the diachronic and chronological analysis of images of a social reality enables us to detect the visible and the invisible in order to take a critical look at the social world and the dynamics of social relationships.
The perception of HRM, trust between employees, and organizational satisfaction in public institutions: The case of Korea
Authors: Lee Kyung-Young , Park Kwantae
Published: September 2024

This study examined the factors influencing the organizational satisfaction of employees in public institutions. In the case of public institutions that must provide stable public services on behalf of the government, the organizational satisfaction of employees will be more important. In this regard, this study includes the perception of HRM and trust between employees as affecting factors, and the perception of HRM consisted of sub-components such as fairness of evaluation and excellence of education and training. Moreover, this study considered trust between employees as a mediator. In more specific, online surveys were conducted with 705 employees of public institutions in Korea, and the Structural Equation Model (SEM) was performed. The results indicated that the perception of HRM affected organizational satisfaction directly or indirectly. In addition, trust between employees mediated between all sub-components of perception of HRM and organizational satisfaction. Particularly, trust between employees has been verified to increase the influence of the perception HRM. Meanwhile, in the case of Korea, there are more public institutions than other countries, and many other countries are showing high interest in Korea’s public institution operation system. In this respect, dealing with Korean public institutions as examples provides important international implications.
Policy implementation and strategic effects: Assessing the impact of parliamentary thresholds on Indonesia’s political system and governance
Authors: Sumada I Made , Samudra Azhari Aziz , Adnyana Yudistira , Irawan Bambang
Published: September 2024

This study examines the impact of parliamentary thresholds on the Indonesian political system through the lens of the Routine Policy Implementation Model and the Strategic Policy Implementation Model. The main objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of parliamentary thresholds in managing political fragmentation, assess their impact on stability and representation in the legislative system, and understand their implementation’s technical and strategic implications. Using a qualitative approach supported by interview studies and field observations, this research combines analysis of election data in the 2009, 2014, and 2019 elections with a qualitative assessment of policy changes and political dynamics. The Routine Policy Implementation Model focuses on the technical aspects of threshold implementation, including vote counting procedures and seat allocation efficiency. Meanwhile, the Strategic Policy Implementation Model examines the broader implications of these thresholds for political consolidation, government effectiveness, and the representation of minor parties. The results show that the parliamentary threshold has significantly reduced political fragmentation by consolidating the number of parties in Parliament, resulting in a legislative system that is cleaner and easier to administer. However, this consolidation has also marginalized small parties and limited political diversity. The novelty of this study lies in its comprehensive analysis of how parliamentary thresholds affect administrative efficiency and strategic political stability in Indonesia, compared to democratic countries in transition, such as Slovenia and Montenegro. In conclusion, although parliamentary thresholds have increased political stability and government effectiveness, they have also raised concerns about the reduced representation of small and regional parties. The study recommends maintaining balanced thresholds that ensure stability and diversity, implementing mechanisms to review thresholds periodically, and involving diverse stakeholders in adjusting policies to reflect evolving political dynamics. This approach will help balance the need for a stable legislative environment with broad representation.

Authors: Öter Ali , Ersöz Betül , Bülbül Halil İbrahim , Sağıroğlu Şeref
Published: September 2024

ChatGPT is a language model developed by OpenAI that uses generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) algorithms for natural language processing (NLP) tasks. It is a popular Chatbot due to its impressive ability to respond consistently to users' various prompts. In this study, the Public Personnel Selection Examination (KPSS) questions, organized by ÖSYM (Turkish Student Selection and Placement Center) every year, were asked to ChatGPT, and its performance was evaluated. The evaluation was made based on fundamental text questions asked in the last three years (2021-2023) in Biology, History, Geography, Turkish Language Literature, and Social Studies in KPSS. This study also aims to investigate the accuracy and reliability of the questions asked to ChatGPT in the field of KPSS educational sciences. According to the research results, ChatGPT's KPSS knowledge and interpretation skills are significantly lower than the university graduate candidates who took the exam. Some suggestions are included for better Chatbot performance, more effective prompt engineering and ethical use of these tools.

Authors: Bianchini Roberta , Ertzbischoff Lucas
Published: September 2024

We review recent mathematical results concerning the analysis of hydrostatic equations in the context of stably stratified fluids. Beginning with the simpler and better understood setting of homogeneous fluids, we emphasize the additional mathematical challenges posed by non-homogeneous framework. We present both positive and negative results, including well-posedness and proof of the hydrostatic limit with a suitable regularization, alongside ill-posedness in the fully inviscid setting and the breakdown of the hydrostatic limit in specific scenarios.
Investigating diverse photogrammetric techniques in the hazard assessment of historical sites of the Museum of the Coal Basin Area in Będzin, Poland
Authors: Świerczyńska Ewa , Karsznia Krzysztof , Książek Krzysztof , Odziemczyk Waldemar
Published: September 2024

Assessing the condition of historical sites at risk requires an interdisciplinary approach based on combining multiple measurement technologies. Due to the dynamic development of technology, non-invasive remote sensing methods are gaining significant importance. Among these techniques is photogrammetry based on images taken from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and those taken with a smartphone. In the study, the authors specified the possibilities and limitations of using remote photogrammetric methods to build accurate digital models of the walls of historic buildings with cracks in them. Point clouds, TIN grids, and façade orthophotos were examined. Statistical analysis was used to determine the repeatability of the data. Two parameters were identified that affect the accuracy of the data: the first – the direction of the segment between two points in the façade plane, and the second – the distance of the segment between two points in the plane of the façade. The study showed that the average accuracy of crack width measurements on the data acquired with the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise RTK is 1 mm. Testing of crack width measurements using a Samsung Galaxy S20 FE smartphone showed an average absolute error of 0.24 mm. Based on the results, it was concluded that the imagesacquired using mobile devices can be used to determine changes in crack widths on walls.

Por una antropología de las islas: delimitaciones del campo y consideraciones del caso chileno
Authors: Brinck Guillermo
Published: September 2024

En este artículo se destaca la importancia de las formas de vida insulares para apoyar la necesidad de desarrollar el campo de la antropología de las islas. Se revisan los avances que este campo ha tenido en el mundo y se observa el caso chileno, país que sirve de referencia para América Latina por contar con una gran cantidad de islas y archipiélagos. Se postula la necesidad de pasar de los estudios realizados en islas a una antropología de las islas, la insularidad y la isleidad. Para ello, se define su objeto de estudio, dando cuenta de algunas de sus dinámicas recurrentes para postular que la isleidad es eminentemente política. Asimismo, el texto aborda la contribución teórica, metodológica y epistemológica que la antropología puede hacer a los estudios de las islas (island studies) poniendo énfasis en el conocimiento y la mejora de las condiciones de vida de las poblaciones isleñas.
La antropología jurídica en Chile, pasado, presente y perspectivas pendientes: una historia narrada desde el Sur
Authors: Le Bonniec Fabien
Published: September 2024

A través de un trabajo de revisión y análisis bibliográfico y documental y de observaciones personales, se propone una historia de la antropología jurídica en Chile y una caracterización de este campo de estudio, marcado por algunas figuras, ciertos eventos, contextos, publicaciones y tendencias, tales como su carácter aplicado a través de las pericias antropológicas, la diversidad de perfiles que reúne o su inscripción en redes internacionales académicas y activistas. Al interesarse en la producción científica en la materia en el sur del país, en particular en Temuco, se destaca la existencia de distintas antropologías jurídicas en regiones que, desde el centro, puede ser vista como una dispersión. Este retrato no solo visibiliza esta diversidad, sino que da cuenta de la constitución de un verdadero campo de estudios coherente y de perspectivas de desarrollo de la disciplina a partir de la reformulación del mismo concepto de antropología jurídica ante los nuevos, y viejos, desafíos que esta conlleva.
“Tu voz será de todos los que un día tuvieron algo que contar”. El caso de la antropología poética, una revisión necesaria
Authors: Piña Leonardo
Published: September 2024

A partir de la revisión de diferentes tipos de textos que tratan o son expresión de la denominada antropología poética en Chile, este artículo se propone levantar una mirada que actualice sinóptica y panorámicamente su emergencia y desarrollo. Sobre dicha base, que integra a su examen la propia experiencia como testigo e interesado en el particular, la narración se organiza siguiendo la huella de congresos y otras reuniones de la especialidad, sus diversos textos y autorías, y su transformación en objeto de reflexión e investigación al interior y fuera de la disciplina. Con ello como objetivo y fuente documental, el texto señala que muchas de las condiciones que la hicieron necesaria no resultan muy disímiles en el presente, actualizando por tanto su vigencia, y que el tipo de abordaje de que fue objeto, asociado más a cuestiones de género, discurso y exponentes, por ejemplo, dejó en segundo lugar la subversión epistemológica que representó su demanda y crítica inicial.
"Gente en la isla": giros etnográficos en el estudio de la migración transnacional de jóvenes latinoamericanos residentes en Chiloé, Chile (2020-2023)
Authors: Saldívar Juan , Márquez Rodrigo , Boric Ljuba , Delgado Hernán
Published: September 2024

El artículo presenta hallazgos etnográficos preliminares sobre las experiencias de la migración transnacional de jóvenes latinoamericanos residentes en áreas urbanas de Chiloé entre los años 2020 y 2023. El hilo conductor avanza hacia una reflexión sobre el territorio como un espacio multigeográfico que permite la circulación de cosmopolitismos en el contexto de un proceso multiescalar donde circulan las ideas, las prácticas y los recursos que llegan de afuera y se instalan adentro, resignificando de cierta forma las cotidianidades e identidades en el archipiélago. En este sentido, los recientes asentamientos de latinoamericanos se valen de estrategias creativas, diseñadas como mecanismos de integración, donde observamos la acción colectiva, la formación de comunidades, la resignificación de la noción de hogar y la creación de mercados transnacionales, categorías que permiten comprender la migración vivida en territorios subnacionales de Chile.
Tensiones entre legalidad e informalidad: una aproximación etnográfica a la intervención estatal nivel calle en asentamientos informales de la Región Metropolitana
Authors: Acuña Nicolás
Published: September 2024

Desde el año 2011, el Programa de Asentamientos Precarios ha actuado en 142 asentamientos informales en la Región Metropolitana, lo que lo sitúa como uno de los principales mecanismos de intervención de las políticas de vivienda ante la crisis habitacional que actualmente afecta al país. A partir de la recopilación de información etnográfica durante el trabajo de campo realizado entre enero y marzo de 2023, el presente artículo aborda las prácticas de discreción desplegadas durante la ejecución del programa de intervención analizando la relación entre la formalidad/legalidad, representada por el estado, y la informalidad/ilegalidad, representada por el campamento, dicotomías que se tensionan en el quehacer en terreno de los burócratas nivel calle. El artículo argumenta que, en aquel intersticio, el estado se posiciona paradojalmente como garante y regulador de unainformalidad calculada. Asimismo, plantea que la aproximación etnográfica y su flexibilidad son clave en el abordaje de los dinámicos márgenes, límites y prácticas del estado.

Con el objetivo de estimular el diálogo académico, este artículo presenta un análisis exploratorio de la etnografía del estado en Chile. Se ofrece un panorama de la evolución y las características de este campo mediante el estudio de proyectos de investigación, foros académicos y publicaciones científicas recientes donde sus autores se aproximan etnográficamente al estado. El artículo plantea que, siguiendo las tendencias regionales, la etnografía del estado en Chile se caracteriza por ser un campo heterogéneo y diverso, haciendo eco del desafío analítico de abordar el concepto de estado. Se destacan los límites difusos que desafían una delimitación precisa de la etnografía del estado como campo, lo que indica un área de estudio dinámica y en constante construcción, abierta a nuevas preguntas y debates y con la capacidad de permear las fronteras de las distintas disciplinas de las ciencias sociales.
Optimal PLA+ 3D Printing Parameters through Charpy Impact Testing: A Response Surface Methodology
Authors: Suryadarma Engelbert Harsandi Erik , Laksono Pringgo Widyo , Priadythama Ilham
Published: September 2024

Additive manufacturing (AM) has revolutionized the manufacturing sector, particularly with the advent of 3D printing technology, which allows for the creation of customized, cost-effective, and waste-free products. However, concerns about the strength and reliability of 3D-printed products persist. This study focuses on the impact of three crucial variables—infill density, printing speed, and infill pattern—on the strength of PLA+ 3D-printed products. Our goal is to optimize these parameters to enhance product strength without compromising efficiency. We employed Charpy impact testing and Response Surface Methodology (RSM) to analyze the effects of these variables in combination. Charpy impact testing provides a measure of material toughness, while RSM allows for the optimization of multiple interacting factors. Our experimental design included varying the infill density from low to high values, adjusting printing speeds from 70mm/s to 100mm/s, and using different infill patterns such as cubic and others. Our results show that increasing infill density significantly boosts product strength but also requires more material and longer processing times. Notably, we found that when the infill density exceeds 50%, the printing speed can be increased to 100mm/s without a notable reduction in strength, offering a balance between durability and production efficiency. Additionally, specific infill patterns like cubic provided better strength outcomes compared to others. These findings provide valuable insights for developing stronger and more efficient 3D-printed products using PLA+ materials. By optimizing these parameters, manufacturers can produce high-strength items more efficiently, thereby advancing the capabilities and applications of 3D printing technology in various industries.
Foliar epidermal micro-morphology of selected brinjal varieties: A study on leaf surface characteristics
Authors: Soumyamol Nizarudeen , Sheeba Muhammed Jameelabeevi
Published: September 2024

Studies on the leaf epidermal morphological characteristics were conducted on the three varieties of brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) belonging to the family Solanaceae. The varieties used in the study were Bhavani Gold, Purple Round and Haritha. Fresh mature brinjal leaves were randomly selected from the three experimental genotypes, and the foliar epidermal features were studied by using light microscopy and SEM imaging. Measurements were taken with an ocular and stage micrometer using 10X and 40X magnifications. The photographs were taken from mounted slides. The stomatal count and each measurement represent the average of ten readings. The upper and lower epidermal surfaces of leaf were studied for stomatal features including, stomatal distribution, stomatal type, stomatal index, stomatal pore length, stomatal pore width, guard cell length, guard cell width, subsidiary cell length and width, epidermal cell type, epidermal cell length and width, trichome type, trichome length and width. Amphistomatous, anisocytic, and with more stomata on the lower epidermal surface than the upper epidermal surface were present in all leaf varieties. On the leaves, the abaxial stomatal index ranged from 68.19 mm-2 (Bhavani Gold) to 56.67 mm-2 (Purple Round) to 58.8 mm-2 (Haritha). While on the adaxial surface, it varied from 59.67 mm-2 (Bhavani Gold), 53.46 mm-2 (Purple Round) and 56.67 mm-2 (Haritha). The three varieties of this study exhibited similarities in the pattern of epidermal cell on the adaxial and abaxial surfaces and were irregular in shape. Among the three varieties epidermal cell become irregular in outline and trichomes were present on both leaf surfaces. It becomes stellate, non-glandular, glandular and 8-12 in number. The highest trichome length was obtained in Bhavani Gold (63 μm) followed by Haritha (57.5 μm) and Purple Round (43 μm) on the upper epidermis. On the lower epidermal region maximum length was obtained in Bhavani Gold (65.5 μm) followed by Haritha (53 μm) and Purple Round (44 μm).
La literatura africana en castellano de los antiguos territorios españoles del Sahara Occidental y de Marruecos
Authors: Lawo Sukam Alain
Published: September 2024

Aunque el español es uno de los idiomas oficiales en el Sahara Occidental, la literatura saharaui y marroquí en español ha sido poco conocida. Alain Lawo-Sukam abre con este libro una nueva ventana al mundo literario africano-hispano, ampliando así el conocimiento de la literatura hispanófona en África. La persistencia del español en las comunidades saharauis no solo responde a la herencia colonial, sino al deseo de fomentar una identidad heterogénea -la del único país árabe que "habla, piensa y sueña, y se siente en español" -y, por lo tanto, de encontrar en el idioma una forma de desmarcarse de la francofonización y resistir frente a los ocupantes de su territorio, el de la República Árabe Saharaui Democrática, el único estado africano colonizado en la actualidad. Como señala el autor, "La literatura saharaui en español -y sobre todo la contemporánea -se erige como el tercer poder de la diplomacia saharaui, siendo el Frente Polisario el primer poder y el segundo, el pueblo saharaui. La literatura participa de manera eficaz en el despertar de las conciencias internacionales sobre la vida, la identidad y el destino del pueblo saharaui doblemente colonizado en su tierra y también exiliado de ella". A ella suma el estudio, la literatura marroquí en español, y los elementos comunes y conflictivos, en un contexto cruzado por mi tradición, la colonialidad, la globalización, la interculturalidad, desde donde narra y poetizan experiencias como la migratoria a que se ven abocados sus jóvenes, la reivindicación de la memoria de Al-Ándalus, el pasado colonial y sus injusticias, las contradicciones marroquíes-saharauis y la umma (la comunidad musulmana), y la fraternidad universal. El universo narrativo y poético marroquí y saharaui en español registrado por Lawo-Sukam es un tesoro literario. Este libro muestra que en África hay más que literaturas francófonas, anglófonas y árabes, y que el español, como idioma de creación artística, es un vehículo para el diálogo de culturas y que hace posible el multiculturalismo. La literatura en español en África es una realidad en pleno auge, y se constituye en el tercer polo del hispanismo mundial después de España y las Américas. Su voz debe ser oída, aceptada, considerada y estudiada.

Currently, there are several hundred definitions of intelligence in nature, which have fundamental differences. This is when they are studied within the framework of one science yet. The situation is similar with artificial intelligence. The problem of using artificial intelligence in legal proceedings is inextricably linked with such concepts as conscience, will, emotions, temperament, character, empathy, feeling, imagination, etc. It can be asserted that artificial intelligence in legal proceedings is necessary in order to exclude or minimize the subjective elements of natural intelligence. This is primarily an interest in a specific outcome, due to corruption and other "natural" reasons that exclude objectivity and justice, even in their everyday understanding. In all the developments of artificial intelligence, there was no place for the concepts of conscience and justice, without which it (AI) can surpass the original and give rise to new, sophisticated forms of corruption and arbitrariness.

A constitutional assessment of patriotism in comparison with the ideology of the Belarusian state was given. It is noted that in all its manifestations and characteristics, patriotism is associated not with the state, but with the Fatherland. The state is a political form of the Fatherland. A person has one fatherland and it does not change. Therefore, the object of patriotism is the Fatherland, but not the state. It has been shown that in the Republic of Belarus patriotic ideas are filled with state ideological content. As a result, patriotism devalues its significance. There is a transformation of republican patriotism into a monarchized one, with the assertion of loyalty not to the Fatherland and not even to the state, but to the Head of State – to the President. In this regard, the formation of patriotism takes place in the context of the opposition of some social groups to others (“we are them”). It is concluded that a combination of two elements is objectively necessary in patriotism: state interest and a civilian autonomous open position. The author's definition of the concept of “patriotism” is proposed

O objetivo deste artigo é estabelecer critérios para o exame de pedidos judiciais de medicamentos no contexto da judicialização da Política de Assistência Farmacêutica (PAF). Tem-se por metodologia a proposição de uma taxonomia de critérios que distinguem situações de controle e revisão de atos da administração pública de interferência na política pública, com base na essencialidade do medicamento para o caso concreto. Medindo-se assim estudos temáticos feitos na área.  Desta maneira, encontrados os critérios, eles são categorizados em princípios, critérios, indicadores e verificadores, identificados por meio da análise da literatura. Os resultados indicam que a taxionomia proposta permite analisar as demandas judiciais por medicamentos de forma mais abrangente e sistemática, destacando-se o uso racional do medicamento, a garantia, a segurança, a qualidade e a eficácia como meios de operacionalizar princípios que favorecem a entrega efetiva de uma prestação jurisdicional concreta. Ademais, o estudo observa que nem sempre a Judicialização de medicamentos de alto custo é responsável pelo aumento de demandas judiciais na área da saúde. Tem-se por conclusão de que a utilização de critérios para o exame de pedidos judiciais de medicamentos pode ser a melhor forma de garantir a justa e adequada aplicação da Política Nacional de Assistência Farmacêutica, socializando o custeio de demandas individuais quando necessário.
Hoje tem rito em latim no retiro da RCC

Consequência de modelos sociopolíticos e econômicos que engendram crises internas de forma autônoma e estrutural, os regimes democráticos transnacionais têm sido postos à prova nas últimas décadas por uma série de movimentos emergentes da extrema-direita. A religião, particularmente a cristã, participa intensamente desses novos fenômenos e vem tomando um espaço central nos estudos de política e sociedade a respeito de um crescente conservadorismo. Com o objetivo de contribuir para a produção de conteúdo que se detém sobre essas relações, a presente pesquisa pretende tematizar a categoria de tradismáticos, proposta pelo cientista político francês Gaël Brustier, para pensar o processo de consolidação de alianças e fusões entre a Renovação Carismática Católica e os grupos Tradicionalistas. Através de um detalhamento do conceito (a), de uma análise a partir do uso weberiano da categoria de afinidade eletiva (b) e da contraposição entre os exemplos franceses de Brustier com situações extraídas da realidade nacional (c), almeja-se contribuir para a produção de uma semântica do conservadorismo católico, que consiga atender a real complexidade deste fenômeno, sem deixar de lado os movimentos que ocorrem nas margens fronteiriças do campo católico.

Objetivo: Relatar a experiência de extensão universitária feita por acadêmicos do curso de medicina em comunidades ribeirinhas de uma região paraense conhecida como Volta Grande do Xingu. Relato de experiência: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo do tipo relato de experiência obtido durante a realização de um projeto educativo de extensão em saúde voltada para o público infanto-juvenil cuja temática enfatizava os meios de contaminação, prevenção e efeitos tóxicos do metilmercúrio (MeHg), uma forma orgânica do mercúrio (Hg). Para o êxito da ação e maior interação com esse público, ferramentas lúdicas como vídeos animados, teatro e dinâmicas em grupo foram utilizadas como estratégias educativas. Considerações finais: Esta ação universitária alcançou seu papel social ao transmitir conhecimento capaz de empoderar a comunidade na promoção do autocuidado e bem-estar social. Além disso, permitiu aos acadêmicos vivenciarem novas experiências as quais contribuíram para a formação de médicos generalistas capazes de gerir ações em saúde, não só na região amazônica, mas também em diferentes lugares do país. Por fim, destaca-se que este projeto possibilitou a universidade o reconhecimento das demandas regionais na qual está inserida, permitindo a adoção de estratégias plausíveis e resolutivas.
