Authors: Saidin Siti Zabedah , Badara Mu’azu Saidu , Ahmi Aidi
Published: October 2020

The objective of this study is to discover the good governance practices in the public sector entities by assessing ten good governance dimensions following the international best governance practices guidelines. This study is based on a case study analysis of six public sector entities using a content analysis of the annual report. From the case studies analysis, it shows that all the dimensions in the international public sector governance best practices are being practiced by the federal statutory bodies in Malaysia. Though this paper provides some useful insights into governance practices among public sector entities, it is limited to case studies on six federal statutory bodies and the non-financial information in the annual reports only. This study might give more impact if primary data were used through focus group discussions and interviews with key governance players in the public sector.
Effect of wet and dry torrefaction process on fuel properties of solid fuels derived from bamboo and Japanese cedar
Authors: Yang Wei , Wu Shengji , Wang Hui , Ma Pengyu , Shimanouchi Toshiniri , Kimura Yukitaka , Zhou Jie
Published: October 2020

Torrefaction is a promising pretreatment process to convert biomass into high energy density solid fuel for further thermal conversion systems. In this study, the effects of wet and dry torrefaction on the properties of solid fuels prepared from bamboo and Japanese cedar were investigated in a batch reactor. The yields of solid fuels decreased with increasing treatment temperature in both torrefaction processes, mainly due to the decomposition of cellulose and hemicellulose. Cellulose showed higher reactivity than hemicellulose in both biomasses. The higher heating values (HHV) of solid fuels prepared at the treatment temperatures higher than 240 °C in both torrefaction processes reached the same level as those of commercial coals. Wet torrefaction was better than dry torrefaction for decomposing bamboo and Japanese cedar. Dry torrefaction had more favorable impact than wet torrefaction on improving the fuel properties of bamboo and Japanese cedar because of its lower energy input, higher solid fuel yield, higher energy yield, and similar HHV under the same conditions. The crystalline structure of solid fuel had no great change below 260 °C in both torrefaction processes and was completely destroyed at 300 °C during dry torrefaction.
Wood modification by heat treatment: A review
Authors: Esteves Bruno M. , Pereira Helena M.
Published: October 2020

Wood heat treatment has increased significantly in the last few years and is still growing as an industrial process to improve some wood properties. The first studies on heat treatment investigated mainly equilibrium moisture, dimensional stability, durability and mechanical properties. Mass loss, wettability, wood color, and chemical transformations have been subsequently extensively studied, while recent works focus on quality control, modeling, and study the reasons for the improvements. This review explains the recent interest on the heat treatment of wood and synthesizes the major publications on this subject on wood properties, chemical changes, wood uses, and quality control.

This paper examines the reality of Da'wa language in the interaction and communication to the head of state with the peoples. The diversity of tribes, religions, races, and groups within the archipelago needs to be handled wisely, so that the harmonization of citizens continues to be strengthened in all aspects of life. Uploading the message of the head of state on you tube social media can be the right media to parse central and regional policies. You tube social media is a trend of millennial society that is loved by all groups. Therefore, the head of state also needs to upload the existing social media. The message of the head of state needs to be known to all its people, both delivered during state speeches and in remarks on non-state activities. The President is the icon of a country, the national cultural identity of natural resources and human resources must be fully considered. It concerns state policies based on idealized ideals and constitutional grounds. All policies must be understood by the government apparatus from the central to the regions, officials to the people. However, the language of the head of state is not as easy as the educator explains it to students, the head of state needs high social sensitivity, so there is no obstacle means understanding all the messages he conveys. The head of state must provide an optimal and perfect example as a manifesto of the characteristics of Indonesian human resources as a whole. How are the messages of the head of state uploaded on social media ‘You Tube’?. The head of state must provide an optimal and perfect example as a manifesto of the characteristics of Indonesian human resources as a whole. This study is a descriptive qualitative methode, the material from the cyber media, and analysis of the speechs of Ir. Jokowidodo in YouTube media from January to December 2017. The research shows that the president's verbal and non-verbal messages reflected the balance of communication between leaders and the people interactively interactively; the meaning is humanist, religious, humorous, traditionalist, and nationalist. The analysis too shows that the head of the central government until the region must be a communicator, innovator and initiator wholeheartedly dealing with the interests of civil society in the millennial era, guarding the strengthening of national identity and religious ideology.
Peace and Unity as a Main Purpose of Islamic Da’wa: Semantic Study of the Word Da’wa in the Qur’an
Authors: Surur Miftahus , Asmuki Asmuki
Published: October 2020

Da’wa is a holy duty of the apostles who revealed to them by God. Afterwards, it is bequeathed to Moslem scholars that have capability and integrity. In this era many Da’was just contain humiliation and hate speech that destroy the unity and peace among the people. It shows that Da’wa has strayed far from its real meaning and purpose. Basically Da’wa aims to unite mankind unto One God, one tenet and universal values according on surah Ali Imran verse 64. Based on this reality, the author – by researching the word Da’wa in the Qur’an on semantic perspective – aims to return Da’wa back to its real meaning and main purpose. Semantic is the linguistic and philosophical study of meaning in language. “Semantic of The Qur’an” should be understood only in the sense of the Qur’ans weltanschauung or world view. To understand the meaning of the word Da’wa, the author – firstly – found the basic meaning and relational meaning, then the synchronic and the diachronic. The result is that Da’wa Islam invites people unto the one tenet that held by all the prophets and the earlier people. It is no worship except One God that called tauhid or monotheism. It is the principal point to get Da’wa back to advance that the main purpose of Da’wa is peace and the unity under tauhid tenet and universal values based on surah Ali Imran verse 64.

Published: October 2020

RESUMO A infecção por Leptospira spp. sorovar Hardjo é endêmica nos rebanhos bovinos brasileiros. A introdução de animal infectado em rebanhos livres, acesso a aguadas e pastejo consorciado entre ovinos e bovinos têm sido apontados como os principais fatores de risco. Objetivou-se investigar quais fatores de risco envolvem a infecção pelo sorovar Hardjo em rebanhos exclusivos de ovinos e consorciados com bovinos nas condições criatórias extensivas e semi-intensivas adotadas na região de Sorocaba, São Paulo. Amostras sorológicas de oito rebanhos, não vacinados contra leptospirose: cinco com criação consorciada entre ovinos e bovinos e três exclusivas de ovinos foram examinadas pela reação de soroaglutinação microscópica. Um questionário epidemiológico foi aplicado considerando-se manejos sanitário e zootécnico e condições ambientais. Todos os rebanhos apresentaram animais reatores para Leptospira spp.: 51,16% (22/43) dos animais consorciados e 70,83% (17/24) dos ovinos (p = 0,191), mas apenas os rebanhos consorciados apresentaram pelo menos um animal reator ao sorovar Hardjo. A condição consorciada foi a única com significância para a presença sorológica do sorovar Hardjo (p = 0,018). Quando avaliado o total de ovinos em condições criatórias exclusivas frente aos ovinos consorciados com bovinos, o risco associado à consorciação foi significante para a presença do sorovar Hardjo (p = 0,005). Conclui-se que o sorovar Hardjo estava relacionado à presença de bovinos e independente de outros fatores de risco.

Published: October 2020

Abstract Introduction: Some health professionals have difficulty treating and preventing upper extremity lymphedema (UEL), demonstrating the need for evidence-based educational technology, such as algorithms. These algorithms should be simple, clear and direct, providing a comprehensive portrait of the care process. Objective: Construct and validate an algorithm to prevent and treat upper extremity lymphedema Method: In order to construct the algorithm, an integrative literature review was conducted in the Health Sciences, SciELO, LILACS and MEDLINE databases. The algorithm was evaluated by 27 physiotherapists and validated using the Delphi method. Statistical analysis was carried out using the content validity index (CVI). Results: In the first assessment, the judges classified the algorithm as “Inadequate” or “Adequate”; following corrections made according to their suggestions, the algorithm was reassessed as “Adequate” or “Completely adequate”. The content validity index was 0.95 at the former and 1.0 at the latter. Conclusion: Following an integrative literature review, an algorithm to treat and prevent upper extremity lymphedema was constructed and validated by experienced professionals, exhibiting interrater agreement in the second assessment.

Published: October 2020

ABSTRACT Purpose: to investigate forward masking by comparing latencies values of positive and negative peaks in frequency-following responses (FFR) recordings, in normally hearing young adults. Methods: from a database, 20 FFR recordings were selected, 10 being from men, and 10 from women, aged 18 to 25 years, with normal hearing. They were qualitatively analyzed by two experienced researchers and also analyzed, according to two different protocols of recording identification: (i) predominance of positive peaks - PV, A, PW, PX, PY, PZ, and O waves; and (ii) predominance of negative peaks - V, A, C, D, E, F, and O waves. The Shapiro-Wilk normality test, the Wilcoxon test, and the Student’s t-test were conducted, by adopting the significance level of p<0.05. Results: the comparative analysis of latency peak values did not reveal any significant difference between the studied protocols. However, the standard deviation was higher for absolute latency values as compared to negative peaks, suggesting an inverted pattern of what was expected. Conclusion: forward masking was identified in both proposals and the protocol of predominant positive peaks was less variable.
Das mãos aos cofres: reflexões sobre transformações materiais e transferência de propriedade de livros devocionais do tardo-medievo
Authors: ALMADA MÁRCIA
Published: October 2020

RESUMO Códices iluminados medievais de coleções públicas são apresentados na perspectiva do colecionismo próprio à era moderna a partir de uma abordagem material baseada na análise de catálogos descritivos de diversas bibliotecas nacionais, em especial o catálogo elaborado pelo bibliotecário Frei João de Santa Ana entre 1809 e 1821 para o acervo da Biblioteca do Palácio Nacional de Mafra, em Portugal. O interesse do artigo é refletir sobre a transferência de propriedade dos livros de devoção privada, de uso reservado e individualizado, e sua presença em bibliotecas reais e as consequentes transformações na forma material e nas apropriações simbólicas e funcionais dadas a esses objetos. Para tanto, é apresentado um breve exame sobre as práticas de produção, uso, circulação, colecionismo e preservação de livros iluminados em geral, por meio do estudo de casos emblemáticos sobre circulação e transformação material. Quanto à produção, fórmulas de representação pictórica propagadas pelos ateliers da região da península itálica, dos Andes, de Flandres e da França são, por um lado, classificadas comparativamente e identificadas em códices específicos. Por outro lado, as a alterações impostas aos códices para atender ao gosto dos novos proprietários são usadas como indícios materiais que revelam práticas de colecionismo e preservação.
Object-Books and Exposed Writings: New Textual and Literary Landscapes in Latin America and Spain
Authors: CLIMENT-ESPINO RAFAEL
Published: October 2020

ABSTRACT In this essay I explore new ways of literary transmission edited in formats other than the codex in Latin America and Spain. My study also analyzes what Armando Petrucci called exposed writings. Taking as departing point a review of the concept of book, I will scrutinize several object-books to offer an analysis of literary materials edited in non-codex supports. This essay also proposes a clear distinction between book-object and object-book. Since the object-books I analyze convey literary texts, a main aim of my research is to vindicate the inclusion of these new materialities of literature into the field of literary studies, an area that historically has omitted non-codex formats considering them non-serious literature or literary diversions.

Results: Following training, the performance was significantly better in all domains assessed and in the total score. The evaluation questionnaire demonstrated that the Cybertutor was well accepted and the performance revealed in the pre-training phase demonstrated the need for children´s hearing health training. Conclusion: The effectiveness of the nursing training program in the area of Children’s Hearing Health using interactive tele-education could be proven, since there was an improvement in performance in all domains evaluated.
A Relevância de Wittgenstein para a Filosofia da Educação: reflexões pessoais sobre usos significativos do pós-fundacionalismo
Authors: Stickney Jeff
Published: October 2020

Resumo: Convidado a examinar meu trabalho em filosofia da educação relacionada à filosofia do último Ludwig Wittgenstein, primeiro investiguei como se tornou um pensador significativo neste campo. Ao afirmar esta conexão após algumas observações parciais, e ao esclarecer o propósito das frequentes observações de Wittgenstein sobre aprendizagem como filosóficas ao invés de pedagógicas, a seguir revisito minha discussão com Michael Luntley a respeito da interpretação de observações de Wittgenstein sobre treino. Ao evitar Abrichtung, leitura de ‘treinamento animal’, alinho-me com a perspectiva social-normativa de José Medina de gradativamente alcançar (por meio da formação), autonomia e domínio das regras. Seguir a leitura social-normativa amplamente compartilhada abre, então, uma perspectiva para diversas aplicações relevantes da filosofia pós-fundacional de Wittgenstein na educação. Uma questão é o desvio da regra nas reformas curriculares em que, ao invés de padronização e consenso, encontramos múltiplas interpretações de normas curriculares. Outra pergunta incômoda é como julgamos com algum grau de certeza a eficácia ou a lucidez de práticas pedagógicas variadas, como ao pesar os méritos da descoberta versus abordagens fundamentais no treino em matemática. Ao reconhecer como as pessoas podem ser potencialmente cegadas por reações antigas habituais e pressupostos ‘consolidados’, e também com base em Foucault, considero aplicações a questões de justiça social em termos de como, em geral, consideramos os outros: diagnosticar estudantes com TDAH ou superdotados, usar linguagem abusiva nas escolas, reconhecer reivindicações de indígenas pela soberania em um processo de decolonização da educação, e considerar árvores e outros seres não-humanos como algo mais do que recursos imóveis.
Currículo [de matemáticas]: una problematización de la dicotomía teoría/práctica desde un territorio chocoano
Authors: Charry Óscar , Jaramillo Diana , Tamayo Carolina
Published: October 2020

Resumen: En este artículo problematizamos las relaciones entre teoría y práctica (teoría/práctica) en el campo del currículo [de matemáticas] desde y para un territorio indígena colombiano. Relaciones que, en términos curriculares, son vistas como un problema, toda vez que parecen ser jerárquicas. Este artículo es derivado de una investigación doctoral en curso; estudio en el que asumimos una actitud terapéutico deconstruccionista para la conducción de investigaciones académicas, inspirada en los trabajos de los filósofos Wittgenstein y Derrida; a su vez, realizamos algunas articulaciones con los estudios foucaultianos, con el fin de pensar el currículo [de matemáticas] desde una perspectiva posestructuralista. Así, en primer lugar, presentamos el territorio chocoano donde se viene realizando esa investigación doctoral. Posteriormente, mostramos algunas articulaciones entre los trabajos de Wittgenstein y Derrida para pensar - ver de otras maneras - la investigación en el campo de la Educación Matemática, inspirados en las investigaciones de Antonio Miguel. Luego, establecemos algunas articulaciones con Foucault para discutir las relaciones entre teoría/práctica en el campo curricular [de matemáticas]. Finalmente, presentamos algunas reflexiones emergentes para pensarnos el currículo [de matemáticas] en la Institución Educativa Katío Chamí (Chocó, Colombia), mostrando cómo, en la propuesta del Tejido de Saberes, propio de esta comunidad, no se separa la diada teoría/práctica; esa diada se convierte en una, en unidad. Teoría/práctica juntas y en armonía con la naturaleza.
Culinária Revolucionária de Wittgenstein: alimentos para mudar o paladar

Published: October 2020

Resumo: Sempre me intrigou como seria possível que uma forma de filosofia estritamente desconstrutiva, que nunca oferece nenhum conteúdo positivo a/o leitor/a, poderia ter algum tipo de interesse por educação e ensino. Talvez um exame mais de perto de uma observação de um manuscrito de 1931 pudesse nos ajudar a avaliar melhor se este tipo de pensamento seria capaz disso e, de resto, tivesse algum valor pedagógico.

Analytical model for lateral depth-averaged velocity distributions in curved channels
Authors: Tian Haoyong , Yu Minghui , Liu Yujiao , Huang Yuyun , Hu Peng
Published: October 2020

The distribution of depth-averaged velocity is crucial to many engineering problems. This paper presents an analytical solution for the lateral depth-averaged velocity distribution in a 120° curved channel with asymmetric trapezoidal cross-sections in which the curved flow is not fully developed. The proposed analytical model was derived from the streamwise depth-integrated Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equation, which considers the bed stress, Reynolds stress, secondary flow and local flow acceleration. In addition, practical boundary conditions are proposed to consider the trapezoidal cross-sections with linearly varying side beds and the flow separation at the inner bank near the bend entrance. The analytical solutions using the proposed model were found to be in good agreement with measured data. The main contributions of this study are the development of a conventional analytical model for sophisticated circumstances and the proposal of practical boundary conditions that consider flow separation.

Authors: Noguer-Juncà Ester , Crespi-Vallbona Montserrat , Solé-Pla Joan
Published: October 2020

The presence of invisible male standards in the organizations determines their culture and their functional and operational policies. Therefore, the current agendas are determined by the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (UN, 2015). SGD number 5 refers to gender equality. Therefore, one of the main challenges facing the contemporary society is to achieve the gender equality in the organizational structures. Considering this defiance and this need, the objective of this paper is to analyze the gender equality programs implemented by hotel chains located in Catalonia, since they are mandatory for companies with more than 50 employees. A qualitative research is carried out around the six central axes defined in the Strategic Gender Equality Police Plan 2019-2022 of the Regional Government of Catalunya, to analyze the points that these hotel chains consider in their gender equality programs and which aspects are not taken into consideration. Finally, it is concluded with some recommendations to human resource policies with a gender focus, to better achieve positive results in productivity and in improving the quality of services of these hotel chains.
Sexual Harassment in a Higher Education Institution
Authors: García-Hernández Renán Jesús , Hernández-Sánchez Julita Elemí , García-Martínez Verónica
Published: October 2020

Sexual harassment is a type of gender violence, which is generally naturalized and rarely reported. The aim of this qualitative study was to analyze the experiences of female university students who have been victims of sexual harassment. The intentional sample consisted of 10 participants between the ages of 22 and 24 years from a university in the southeast of Mexico. Interviews were analyzed through different categories, such as the perception of the interviewee, about the harassment, the consequences, and facing the event. The analysis was based on the QSR 6 (NVivo) software. It was found that students perceive harassment as something normal and even romantic, but subsequently there are feelings of humiliation and guilt. Those who reported the incident did not obtain help, in all of them there was a feeling of learned helplessness. In addition, harasser professors have a special language to communicate when they want sexual favors: "you have to take an equivalence test”, language that the students know and understand.

Authors: Cheng Fung Kei
Published: October 2020

The hegemony of dichotomous gender identity dominates the discourse on the issues of sex and gender. Through this means, irrational fear brings about prejudice, stigmatisation, discrimination, and exclusion towards individuals who suffer from gender nonconformity. Despite relevant substantial literature, there is a paucity of research on Chinese transgender people. This case study investigates how a Chinese trans-woman deals with her gender incongruence and anxiety through sex realignment surgery. It conducts in-depth, semi-structured interviews, and processes data by means of interpretative phenomenological analysis, with the help of a computerised qualitative data analysis package. It also carries out member checking to enrich triangulation effects. The results unmask the way the participant is being incrementally liberated from being a pretend man in her current state of half-man-non-woman, and her efforts in achieving the gender that she desires. This study reveals factors that influence the embodiment of bodily integrity and psychological adjustments against distress induced by gender nonconformity, therefore supporting the development of a gender-affirming society that benefits both individuals and public interests.
Uso da expansão rápida palatal assistida por mini-implantes (MARPE) em tratamentos ortopédicos maxilares – revisão de literatura e relato de caso
Authors: Bacchi Ataíse Ceron , Mueller Tiago Augusto
Published: October 2020

O objetivo desta revisão de literatura foi descrever as vantagens da disjunção maxilar, com a utilização do disjuntor de ancoragem esquelética MARPE (Mini-Implant Assisted Rapid Palatal Expander), e ilustrar a técnica por meio de um caso clínico. O procedimento consiste na instalação de mini-implantes em um disjuntor que fica em íntimo contato com o palato, tendo também ancoragem dentária. A disjunção com MARPE, apesar de não totalmente previsível, muitas vezes torna possível a disjunção da sutura palatina mediana após findado o período de crescimento, trazendo vantagens quando comparado à disjunção cirúrgica, como menor custo e morbidade. É apresentada no decorrer do trabalho uma disjunção com MARPE em uma paciente de trinta e seis anos de idade, sendo obtido resultado satisfatório. Mesmo em pacientes que ainda seria possível uma disjunção convencional, são observados resultados positivos com a utilização de MARPE, no que se refere a menores danos aos dentes e tecidos periodontais de suporte. Além disso, é notada estabilidade da disjunção, melhora no padrão respiratório e do sono dos pacientes tratados, sendo favorável principalmente para pacientes dolicofaciais e Padrão II, os quais teriam um agravamento no padrão vertical e no giro horário mandibular com a utilização de um disjuntor convencional.
A New Control Strategy of Dual Stator Induction Generator with Power Regulation

Published: October 2020

In this paper modelling and analysis of stand-alone dual stator induction generator (DSIG) with non-identical parameters under a new method has been done. The induction machine has two sets of stator three-phase windings spatially shifted by 30 electrical degrees. One supplied power to the DC load via a rectifier bridge and AC capacitors, and the other was connected to the battery banks by an inverter to store energy and restore it to regulate the power of the first stator in weak wind. We develop the steady state model and show the performances of different configurations by the simulation results.
Pour un processus catéchétique sans cesse (néo-)catéchuménal: un engendrement à tout âge
Authors: Amherdt François-Xavier

W kierunku ciągłego procesu katechetycznego (neo-)katechumenalnego: płodność w każdym okresie rozwojowym

Jak poradzić sobie z podwójnym wymiarem inicjacji chrześcijańskiej, która jest zarówno zamknięta, kiedy jest formalnie „ukończona”, jak i otwarta na przyszłość chrześcijańskiej egzystencji? W postmodernistycznej erze płynności i mieszania się okresów rozwojowych życia człowieka katechetyczna opieka duszpasterska powinna ulec transformacji, oferując wiele nowych sposobów do przygotowania się na przyjęcie sakramentów, ponieważ można być ochrzczonym i otrzymać sakrament bierzmowania w każdym okresie życia. Transformacja ta dokonuje się wówczas, gdy każda sakramentalna droga i całe życie staną się nieustanną drogą (neo-)katechumenalną, w której pierwsze i wtórne głoszenie kerygmatu jest za każdym razem wznawiane i pogłębiane. Dzieje się tak, ponieważ zgodnie z celem eschatologicznym możliwe momenty duchowej dojrzałości są liczne w życiu, a pedagogika ciągłego wtajemniczania prowadzi do dojrzewania, którego nigdy nie osiągnie się w pełni.

Comment faire droit à la double dimension de l’initiation chrétienne à la fois close lorsqu’elle est « achevée » et ouverte sur l’avenir de l’existence chrétienne ? Dans notre époque postmoderne de fluidité et de brouillage des âges de la vie, la pastorale catéchétique est invitée à se transformer en offrant de multiples portes d’entrée pour la préparation aux sacrements, puisqu’on peut être baptisé et confirmé à tout âge ; en faisant de chaque parcours sacramentel et de l’existence tout entière un cheminement sans cesse (néo-)catéchuménal où la première-seconde annonce kérygmatique est à chaque fois reprise et approfondie. Car selon une visée eschatologique, les moments possibles de maturité spirituelle sont nombreux dans une vie et la pédagogie d’initiation permanente conduit à une maturation jamais pleinement accomplie.
Ksiądz Franciszek Blachnicki – prekursor teologii kerygmatycznej w Polsce
Authors: Biela Bogdan
Published: October 2020

Papież Franciszek stwierdził, iż „teologia po Veritatis gaudium jest teologią kerygmatyczną, teologią rozeznania, miłosierdzia i akceptacji, która nawiązuje dialog ze społeczeństwem, kulturami i religiami w celu budowania pokojowego współistnienia ludzi i narodów” (21.06.2019). Warto w tym kontekście zwrócić uwagę na prekursora teologii kerygmatycznej w Polsce, ks. Franciszka Blachnickiego (1921-1987), który był nie tylko teoretykiem, ale i praktykiem teologii kerygmatycznej. Jako teoretyk wypracował podwaliny pod katechezę fundamentalną, w której wskazał, że dzisiejsze formy katechumenatu nie odpowiadają wymaganiom czasów współczesnych. Blachnicki miał świadomość, że centralnym problemem pastoralnym jest utrata przez Kościół środowiska żywej wiary i miłości, które mogłoby przyjmować w siebie nowe pokolenie chrześcijan. Istniejący system katechizacji dzieci i młodzieży pojętej na sposób szkolny, intelektualistyczny, jako nauczanie religii, nie potrafi w tej sytuacji spełnić zadań katechumenatu, ponieważ nie jest systemem wychowawczym, który wdraża do życia chrześcijańskiego we wspólnocie Kościoła. W związku z powyższym Blachnicki był przekonany, że trzeba wprowadzić uzupełniający katechumenat dla osób już ochrzczonych – zarówno dorosłych, jak dzieci i młodzieży – wykorzystując wskazówki posoborowego nauczania Kościoła, zwłaszcza zawarte w dokumencie o inicjacji chrześcijańskiej dorosłych. W efekcie ks. Blachnicki w latach sześćdziesiątych ubiegłego wieku na bazie rekolekcji oazowych stworzył Ruch Żywego Kościoła, nazwany później Ruchem Światło-Życie. W ramach formacji deuterokatechumenalnej pokazał konkretną drogę realizacji postulatów wynikających bezpośrednio ze zdobyczy teologii kerygmatycznej oraz ukazał „katechumenacką” koncepcję duszpasterstwa mogącą odnowić współczesną parafię wspólnotę wspólnot.
Duszpasterstwo wobec błogosławieństwa zwierząt
Authors: Brusiło Jerzy
Published: October 2020

Zwierzęta od dawna towarzysząc człowiekowi, spełniały różne funkcje: od towarzyszenia i opieki przez pożywienie i źródło surowców aż do funkcji religijnych. W chrześcijaństwie zwierzęta były i są częścią świata stworzonego, za który człowiek wyraża wdzięczność Stwórcy. Występują także jako atrybuty świętych, nie są jednak już ubóstwiane. Tak jak cały świat stworzony ożywiony i nieożywiony, zwierzęta mogą być błogosławione, aby lepiej służyć człowiekowi w drodze do życia wiecznego. Interesującym przykładem obrzędu błogosławieństwa zwierząt przywołanym w artykule jest uroczysty odpust św. Rocha z Montpellier w miejscowości Mikstat. Zwierzęta są tam błogosławione, ale nie stanowi to centrum uroczystości, w której chodzi przede wszystkim o celebrowanie Słowa Bożego, sprawowanie sakramentów, co służy uwielbieniu Boga i prowadzi ludzi do zbawienia. Współcześnie często dochodzi do wyniesienia potrzeb i praw zwierząt na równi z człowiekiem, czego wyrazem są próby organizowania pogrzebów, Mszy św. i innych sakramentów dla zwierząt. Rodzi to niewątpliwie poważne wyzwania dla teologii i duszpasterstwa.
Huellas de un trauma psicosocial y retos pedagógicos para la construcción de paz en Colombia
Authors: Serrano Mora Sandra Milena , Quintero Mejía Marieta
Published: October 2020

El artículo se propone documentar a partir de algunos episodios del conflicto armado colombiano, el impacto que ha tenido este en el tejido social, desde la configuración de lo que Martín-Baró (1988) denominó trauma psicosocial. Este implica una afectación colectiva, específicamente en los lazos comunales, mediados por representaciones, lenguajes, prácticas y culturas que establecieron dinámicas relacionales basadas en la indiferencia, la prevención y la exclusión del otro. Para sustentar la idea de este trauma psicosocial se revisan dos momentos históricos, sin desconocer las huellas e impresiones de otros procesos como el de la conquista y la colonización, que también han sido documentados, pero que no se abordan aquí. El primer momento, denominado “la época de la Violencia”, constituye un periodo en el que se instalaron algunas de las marcas que reflejan ese trauma psicosocial, tales como la lógica amigo/enemigo, un ethos social de odios heredados comunitariamente, un ambiente de tensión y prevención, el convencimiento de que la violencia es la única alternativa entre otras. El segundo, ubicado en la década del 80 y 90, viene atravesado por el narcotráfico con la participación de actores disímiles y letales que se conjugaron de diferentes maneras: guerrilla, paramilitares, narcotraficantes y clase política colombiana. Posteriormente, se abordan algunos retos pedagógicos para la construcción de paz, a partir de la etapa del posacuerdo. Una vez firmado el acuerdo de paz en el año 2016 entre el Gobierno nacional y las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias (FARC-EP), el país aún vive situaciones de violencia política y social, en medio de expresiones de conflicto armado. Atendiendo a esta situación, se plantea la propuesta de una Terapéutica Social, recurriendo a dos fuentes, las voces de las víctimas y el arte como escenario de encuentro y de resignificación.
Estrategias para desarrollar la convivencia y la paz desde la educación
Authors: Carreño Marleny , Rozo García Hugo
Published: October 2020

El presente artículo es resultado de la revisión sistemática de literatura que tenía como propósito identificar las diferentes estrategias que han abordado la convivencia y paz desde la educación entre el 2013 y 2017. El proceso de revisión se estructuró en tres momentos los cuales permitieron consolidar la revisión planteada y abordar el fenómeno estudiado. Los resultados evidencian que es un tema amplio con diferentes matices, se puede observar que existen esfuerzos por fomentar la convivencia y paz a través de prácticas de aula e institucionales que intentan seguir lineamientos políticos y académicos, pues está claro que son muchos los beneficios de reconocer, identificar y brindar herramientas para solucionar los conflictos dentro y fuera de las instituciones educativas. El principal resultado fue la agrupación de esas iniciativas en cuatro grandes estrategias, que permiten ver con mayor claridad los esfuerzos que se están desarrollando y los diferentes estadios que ha tenido el objeto de estudio.
