Published: September 2022

Standard physical therapy (SPT) with ground gait training is well recognized to improve the motor skill in cerebral palsy (CP) disease. Confirmation is required on achieving better gross motor function with partial body weight supported treadmill training (PBWSTT). The objective of the study is to analyze combination of SPT with PBWSTT for gross motor function children with spastic diplegic CP who able to walk. A prospective design was conducted in CP patients 2-7 years of age with Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) I-III and received physical therapy 2 times per week, 20 minutes per session, a total of 20 sessions. The treatment group is continued by PBWSTT for 20 minutes per session. Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM)-66 of walking, running, and jumping (dimension E) is measured in pre and post-physical therapy. Data were analyzed descriptively. There were 10 subjects and divided into 5 subjects in the control and the rest in the treatment group. The mean age was 48.4 months and 63.4 months respectively. The Average score of GMFM-66 dimension E pre and post-SPT were 63.54 and 65.24, the difference is 1.7 (2.67%) from the initial score.

Occupational skin disease due to intensified infection prevention procedures among healthcare workers has been reported since the outbreak of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). This study was to determine the cause of Occupational Contact Dermatitis (OCD) among healthcare workers in the COVID-19 isolation ward using a skin patch test to prevent the recurrence of the disease. The allergens for the patch test included thiuram-mix 1%, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole 2%, and tetramethyl thiuram disulfide 1% which were contained in gloves, cobalt chloride 1%, and colophony 20% which were contained in adhesives, as well as irigasan 2% and lanolin 100% which were contained in hand hygiene products. Thirty healthcare workers who were diagnosed with OCD were included and underwent patch tests. The participants were dominated by females (90%) and nurses (66.67%). Six participants got weak positive (+) results from thiuram-mix 1%. Meanwhile 1 weak positive (+), 6 strong positive (++) and 1 extreme positive (+++) were found in lanolin 100% patch test. There was clinical relevance to these results. The infection prevention measures among healthcare workers in the COVID-19 isolation ward increased the risk of OCD, including the use of PPE and hand hygiene products.

Published: September 2022

Introduction. Out of 10 patients with diabetes mellitus, 4 could have significant hand injuries that require timely medical evaluation. Here we report a rare condition called tropical diabetic hand syndrome (TDHS), its classification and treatment of a case in the Mosquitia region of Honduras. TDHS is defined as any adult diagnosed with diabetes mellitus presenting with cellulitis, abscess and/or gangrene in any region of the hand and upper limb. Case presentation. A 22-year-old woman with diabetes mellitus type 1 attended Hospital de Puerto Lempira on two occasions in a period of 4 months. She showed up with inflammatory changes in her right hand, which she attributed to an unnoticed injury while doing her daily activities. Multiple surgical interventions and broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment were necessary to control the injury. Discussion. The term TDHS is rarely used to designate inflammatory changes in the hands of diabetic patients living in tropical countries. Compared to the diabetic foot, TDHS occurs in a 20:1 ratio, and it’s not uncommon to see a rapid spread of infection through the hand and forearm compartments, with Meleney's gangrene its complication. Conclusion. TDHS must be treated aggressively from the beginning given its rapid evolution to complications. A complementary therapy must be integrated.

Bedaquiline-Based Short Course Regime for MDR-TB -“The Indian Scenario”
Authors: Sharma Dr. Amit
Published: September 2022

India ranks highest in number of Tuberculosis (TB) and Multi Drug Resistant (MDR) TB patients globally (World Health Organization. Global tuberculosis report (2018). Maximum number of deaths due to TB also occur in India. A short course regime for treating Fluroquinolone (FQ) Sensitive MDR TB has been recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2020 with a duration of 9-11 months. India has also adopted the BDQ Short course regime for MDR-TB patients with multiple exclusion criteria. The excluded patients would receive a longer BDQ based regime which may last 18-20 months. The purpose of this mini-review is to emphasize the possibilities of high failure rates in the BDQ based short course regime, especially in the Context of India due to high baseline FQ resistance and an acute shortage of Drug Sensitivity Tests (DST) tests especially for FQ. Moreover, the need of High dose Isoniazid (Hh ) in the regime may be only a toxic addition in about 80% of patients leading to adverse effects, some of which may be fatal. Failure of BDQ-based short course regime would lead to a catastrophic amplification of the resistance of critically essential drugs such as BDQ and Clofazimine (CFZ). Chances of cure in such patients with Extensively Drug Resistant (XDR) TB would be slim, if not altogether absent.

Published: September 2022

Human hand is highly evolved in terms of complexity and variations. In this modern medical era, vascular anatomy of the human hand has clinical importance in medical, surgical and radiological sciences. The intention of the current study is to determine the variations which occur as the radial artery branches thus making a contribution to the arterial supply of the index finger and the thumb. The study design was descriptive case series, carried out in the Department of Anatomy in King Edward Medical University from December 2018 to May 2019 on 30 cadaveric limbs. Vivisection of the cadaveric hands was performed following Cunningham’s Manual of practical anatomy. The origin and the course of RA, UA and MA were dissected and identified with further exploration of the blood supply of the index finger and the thumb. All details were entered in a predesigned proforma, and the dissected limbs were photographed. Data was analyzed to find the frequencies of superficial palmar arch as well as the arterial supply of thumb and index finger were also expressed in frequencies. Great variation was observed in the arterial supply to palmar aspect of index finger and thumb. Main contributing artery being radial artery in majority of cases through its common palmar or proper palmar branches arising from SPA or SPBRA. Ulnar artery and median artery were also observed to be supplying these areas in 6.6% and 3.3% cases respectively. The median artery when present was replacing the radial artery on palmar aspect of hand. The dorsum, however, was supplied by the princeps pollicis and the radialis indicis branches of radial artery in all the cases. We concluded that in about 1/3rd (11/30 are incomplete SPA) of our studied sample, arterial supply of the index finger and the thumb is highly dependent on radial artery and should any damage occur to it, vitality of these useful structures will be compromised.

Pushed out: Trends and disparities in out-of-school suspension
Authors: Leung-Gagné Melanie , McCombs Jennifer , Scott Caitlin , Losen Daniel
Published: September 2022

During the 1990s and early 2000s, federal and state policies encouraged the implementation of zero-tolerance policies across the country, which helped fuel an overall increase in the use of suspension and expanded racial disparities in suspension. Recent changes in policy and practice have begun to shift educators away from exclusionary discipline, and we review those changes and trends in this report. We examine out-of-school suspension data from the Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC), tracking trends over time. We also assess differences in suspension rates of students based on their race and ethnicity, school level, and disability status. We present data at national and state levels, and because out-of-school suspensions are concentrated in secondary schools, we focus our state-level findings on secondary school students. We explore the ways in which changes in suspension rates may be related to changes in policy, and we make recommendations for additional strategies to reduce school exclusion for all students, and in particular for those who have disproportionately experienced its negative effects.

Mal entendo a língua que eles falam: poesia pensamento radical, animalidade e alteridade
Authors: Alkimin Martha Alkimin
Published: September 2022

Este artigo propõe uma reflexão sobre as relações entre as noções de   pensamento radical, animalidade e alteridade, colocando-as em diálogo com o poema Na feira, de Eucanaã Ferraz, publicado em 2021. Pretende-se, dessa maneira, sustentar duas possibilidades de leitura: a primeira diz respeito à escrita poética como uma atividade radicalmente  fora de si, isto é, como uma experiência de abertura em direção ao outro; a segunda refere-se ao imaginário poético como um modo de intervenção ético-política no mundo, ao conceber e dar forma, pela linguagem, a outras formas de relação entre humanos e animais.
Representação animal e dominação humana: uma leitura da obra "O sofá estampado", de Lygia Bojunga
Authors: Bortoletto Fernanda Favaro , Libanori Evely Vânia
Published: September 2022

O campo de investigação dos Estudos Críticos Animais tem ganhado grandes contribuições nas últimas décadas ao se atentar às relações existentes entre os animais humanos e não humanos. Aplicando os conceitos dos aportes teóricos que focam nos animais e na natureza na Literatura, como os estudos de Kerridge e Sammells (1998), Culler (2016), Agamben (2004), Singer (2010), Berger (2003), Maciel (2007) e Bravo (2011), este artigo objetiva investigar a maneira como os animais são representados na obra O sofá estampado (1980), de Lygia Bojunga, no que tange à dominação promovida pelos seres humanos. Com a análise e a discussão das personagens da obra foram constatadas três faces da representação dos animais em relação ao poder dominante dos seres humanos, sendo que a primeira se refere à figura do animal dominado pelo ser humano. Em seguida, outra representação observada é do animal dominado que supera essa condição, mas reproduz o comportamento do dominador humano. Por fim, a última face trata-se da personagem animal consciente da dominação humana e engajada na luta pelos direitos dos animais e da natureza.
Um causo de intersecção: retórica especista/sexista em "Contos Gauchescos", de Simões Lopes Neto
Authors: Copstein Liege Schilling , Nunes Thiane
Published: September 2022

Partindo da inquietação provocada pelo evento conhecido como “Resgate das porcas do Rodoanel”, mobilização popular acontecida em 2015 quando do acidente com uma carreta conduzindo fêmeas suínas para o abate em São Paulo, traçamos considerações sobre a intersecção das opressões sexista e especista sobre as fêmeas animais não humanas, utilizando o conceito de interseccionalidade proposto pela pesquisadora e ativista feminista Kimberlé Crenshaw, e analisamos sua representação na obra Contos Gauchescos, de Simões Lopes Neto, onde essa mesma intersecção serve aos propósitos de consolidar uma mitologia gaúcha veiculada pela literatura regionalista. Para tanto, nos valemos das reflexões contidas principalmente nas obras O animal que logo sou, de Jacques Derrida, e A política sexual da carne, de Carol Adams, além dos estudos sobre o fenômeno regionalista na literatura gaúcha levados a cabo por Regina Zilberman, Charles Kiefer e Luis Augusto Fischer, precedidos de uma breve contextualização da questão animal em sua dimensão social, filosófica e acadêmica.
A dignidade literária de Sete-de-ouros
Authors: Gonçalves Mariana Brasil Hass , Moraes Anita Martins Rodrigues de
Published: September 2022

O presente artigo é resultado de uma pesquisa sobre a questão animal em João Guimarães Rosa. A partir da leitura de “O burrinho pedrês”, publicada em 1946, em Sagarana, este trabalho tem como fio condutor reflexões sobre os conceitos de “personagem”, proposto por Beth Brait, e de “vida”, abordado por Giorgio Agamben. Propondo um distanciamento de leituras alegóricas ou simbólicas, busca-se analisar os procedimentos de composição de Sete-de-Ouros, compreendendo que a literatura de Rosa reconhece que os animais podem sentir, podem sofrer. Assim, entrecruzando outras referências bibliográficas sobre o animal e os textos críticos sobre Guimarães Rosa, recorre-se a textos teóricos de Antonio Candido, Benedito Nunes, Gabriel Giorgi, Julieta Yelin, Maria Esther Maciel, Suzi Frankl Sperber, entre outros.
An Adaptation Model for Historical Dishes: Ottoman Case Study
Authors: GÜLDEMİR Osman
Published: September 2022

The aim of this study is to develop an adaptation model for historical dishes, based on examples from both the classical (1501-1844) and late (1844-1923) Ottoman periods. The study includes an anecdotal case study model and kitchen practices. In the selection and evaluation process, 1,156 kinds of food and beverages were listed for the classical period and 883 kinds for the late period. These foods and beverages were grouped and evaluated, revealing similarities and differences between the two periods. A total of 63 recipes were standardized, the nutritional values for one serving analyzed, and the rates of daily nutritional requirements evaluated. By this process “a model for adapting historical dishes to the present” was created that could be used in future studies.

Published: September 2022

Изучается влияние массивного гравитирующего гало на вращение эллипсоидального бара в дисковых галактиках. Метод основан на вычислении момента сил между баром и гало с помощью функции их взаимной гравитационной энергии. Для проверки нового метода рассмотрены две модели: простой вариант с однородными компонентами, и более сложный вариант, в котором гало представлено слоисто- неоднородным эллипсоидом с параболическим законом плотности. Для обеих моделей получены выражения взаимной гравитационной энергии бара и гало, построен лагранжиан и выводятся дифференциальные уравнения нелинейных вращательных колебаний бара. Эти уравнения описывают вращение бара с переменной угловой скоростью. Найдены частоты и периоды либраций угловой скорости бара как в общем нелинейном случае, так и в приближении гармонических колебаний. Установлено, что учет неоднородности гало может заметно (примерно в 2 раза) увеличивать период этих колебаний.

Authors: M. Saro Jeffry , Apat Jeffrey , Sarongon John Mark
Published: September 2022

Ferns (Pteridophyta) are free-sporing vascular plants with a unique life cycle with free-living gametophyte and sporophyte phases. The fern species has nearly 90% of the extant diversity, it was the first higher-level of pteridophyte classification in the world. This study aimed to assess and identify the different species composition and diversity variation of ferns found in the lower elevations at the primary forest in Barangay San Rafael, Prosperidad Agusan del Sur, Philippines. Moreover, the researchers were used the quadrat sampling method as one of the best and classic tools utilized in ecology especially determining the diversity of a specific sampling sites. Also, the study used Shannon’s diversity index method in determining the biological diversity of plant species particularly ferns (Pteridophyta). The total number of ferns that was primarily collected at Barangay San Rafael, Prosperidad, Agusan del Sur are nine (9) species from 5 families. The researchers linked the gathered data of ferns (Pteridophyta) by calculating its diversity index of 1.864, were showed medium diversity because most likely the pteridophyte communities were similar in all transects. Thus, the study area has medium species diversity results in a more complex, stable, and productive ecosystem as could be observed in San Rafael Forest. The results show that the growth and distribution of ferns was inhibited significantly by the environment properties.
Special Education in a Remote Setting: Stakeholders’ Stories and More
Authors: Vicente Marvin , Revilla Roberto
Published: September 2022

Remote special education is a relatively new phenomenon. Since the beginning of special education in schools, direct and explicit instruction has been used for learners with autism. Learners, parents, and teachers as stakeholders struggle with alternative instructional methods. Parents are critical players in remote learning. They facilitate home-based learning through modular instruction. Parents help students engage when teachers facilitate online learning. Stakeholders are also alternatively referred to as frontline or grassroots remote special education implementers. This study elicited special education stakeholders' constructs in three areas: views on remote special education, essential special education practices, and policy building blocks. Three teachers and three parents with children with autism respectively participated. Using a semi-structured interview guide, data were collected via online interviews. From an interpretivist's lens, constructs were gleaned from participant narratives. George Kelly's Personal Construct Theory aided the construction process. Stuart Hall's multiple readings informed textual analyses. Findings suggest that special education stakeholders viewed remote learning as a shared responsibility. Eight essential special education practices were determined: individualization, modification, accommodation, assessment, intervention, early detection, collaboration, and inclusion. Individualization and modification, accommodation, teachers' competency, home program, and collaboration emerged as policy building blocks. Researchers’ recommendations include (1) taking advantage of technology in individualization, (2) assessing the feasibility of online learning as an alternative learning modality, (3) providing teachers with comprehensive competency training, (4) supporting home programs as a supplementary educational intervention, and (5) considering telehealth and teletherapy as emerging collaboration strategies.

Describing Mortality Differentials from the Perspective of Various Effects on Life Expectancy and Life Disparity Using Decomposition Methods: The Case of Czechia
Authors: Morávek David , Langhamrová Jitka
Published: September 2022

The growth in life expectancy has accelerated since the 1990s in Czechia, which preceded a long period of stagnation or even a decrease during the communist era from the 1960s. This article aims to evaluate differences in mortality in terms of the impact of various effects on life expectancy and life disparity before and after the Velvet Revolution in Czechia. Three indicators were considered – life expectancy at birth, temporary life expectancy between ages 0 and 65, and the life disparity measure e-dagger (e†). In the article, we followed the decomposition method according to Arriaga (1984). Based on this method, the effect of mortality was further decomposed into an exclusive effect reflecting improved or worsened mortality in the given age group and into an interaction effect reflecting changes in mortality as a whole. Based on the results, it was found that the indirect effect prevailed in the case of life expectancy, while the direct effect dominated in the life disparity measure. Furthermore, we focused on the differences in life expectancy at birth between the sexes and between the two countries forming parts of the former Czechoslovakia – Czechia and Slovakia. For this purpose, we followed the contour decomposition method, so that we distinguished the effect of changes in mortality corresponding to the initial period and the effect of changes corresponding to changes in mortality in terms of time.
MogoDB: A NoSQL Database with Amazing Advantages and Features
Authors: J Jyothi
Published: September 2022

The extremely compressed data stores on non-relational database management systems, commonly referred to as NoSQL data stores, which facilitate the management of data for internet user programs, do not now provide this feature. Some of the words that come to mind are data security, encryption methods, MongoDB, and NoSQL. Without negatively compromising the database's performance in terms of speed or memory utilization, the appropriate encryption methods utilized to various essential data fields provide data protection. This is possible because the right encryption methods are being used. Databases are often used to manage different types of data since document-oriented and unstructured data are typically stored there. These databases include Cassandra, MongoDB, CouchDB, Redis, Hyper-table, and others. They must provide strong security and safeguard users' private data when it is in use or at rest because they are open source. There is a need for a single solution that may enhance data transmission security by offering an improved encryption technique that expedites operations and consumes less memory when managing databases.Today's IT growth is attributed to the development of more data-intensive applications. Due to stringent limitations on data structure, data relations, and other factors, relational databases do not allow us to work with huge data sets or maintain high volume databases. Unstructured data from many industries, including a variety of forms, must be processed and stored in databases. Thus, NoSQL types offer solutions to a number of problems associated with huge data bases. Largely because of benefits like flexibility and horizontal scalability, NOSQL (Not Only SQL) is in demand. This essay explores many NoSQL database types, such as MongoDB, CouchDB, HBase, Cassandra, etc.
The Effect of Pineapple Juice (Ananas comosus) on the Uterine Involution of Postpartum Mothers at Pratama Jannah and Dermawati Maternity Clinics of Deli Serdang Regency in 2019
Authors: Batubara Ardiana , Pulungan Fitriyani
Published: September 2022

Uterine involution is the enlarged uterus that undergoes a physiological involution of about 6 weeks returning to its nonpregnant condition. Uterine subinvolusion occurs due to the uterus cannot contract properly, causing bleeding, leading possibility to death. Various synthetic drugs have been used in accelerating uterine involution by inducing uterine contractions and preventing uterine subinvolution often lead to anaphylactic reactions, short-term arterial hypotension, hot flashes and reflex tachycardia, nausea, vomiting, and heart rhythm disturbances. Concerning the adverse effects of the synthetic drugs in accelerating uterine contractions and preventing uterine subinvolution, many researchers had conducted studies pertaining to the beneficial of natural medicinal plants in accelerating uterine involution by inducing uterine contractions and preventing uterine subinvolution, including pineapple (Ananas comosus). The aim of the current study was to determine the effect of pineapple juice on the uteral involution in postpartum mothers at Pratama Jannah and Dermawati Maternity Clinics of Deli Serdang Regency in 2019. The study design was a quasi-experiment with pretest and posttest using independent t-test. The sample numbers were 40 postpartum mothers that consisted of 20 samples in the control group and 20 samples in the intervention group by predetermined criteria. The dependent variable of uteral involution by inducing uterine contractions was fundal height (the distance between the symphisis pubis and the uterine fundus) and the independent variable was pineapple juice. Fundal height was measured using a metric tape. Data collection was carried out by the means of direct interview using questionnaires and observation sheets. The data were analyzed using independent t-test. The statistical test used was t-test. Results of the statistical t-test revealed that p-value =0.0001 < α = 0.05, in which Ho was rejected, meaning that there was a significant difference in the group control group and the intervention group on the uterine involution in postpartum mothers with p-value was 0.002 (α <0.05). It was concluded that pineapple juice showed a significant effect in reducing uterine subinvolution and accelerated uterine involution of postpartum mothers at Pratama Jannah and Dermawati Maternity Clinics in Deli Serdang Regency. It is suggested to use pineapple juice as natural therapy in reducing the adverse effects of uteral involution.

During the first wave of pandemic in 2020, the initial prodromal symptoms of COVID-19 were similar to vaccine preventable diseases like Measles apart from typical rash and probability of missing such cases during COVID-19 will lead to local spread of cases. The most significant risk lies in children below five years, especially unvaccinated expatriate children who contribute to imported cases of measles from highly endemic countries.

After initial confirmation of 3 cases in April 2020, this outbreak was epidemiologically investigated in Al Buraimi Governorate, Oman, which included data on clinical symptoms, exposure information, travel history, immunization, and history of contact with others. Among the positive cases, 75% were girls; 6 were Afghani nationals and 2 were Pakistani nationals. However, most cases were reported between Afghani nationals 6 (75%) due to their low vaccination status. Genotyping B3 was isolated, and the virus traced back to Pakistan as the country of origin.

In 2019, the Regional Verification Commission for Measles and Rubella (RVC), has declared Oman as a measles and rubella-free nation. The rationale of this study is to have a clear understanding of the events that led to the importation of genotype B3 measles outbreak in Al Buraimi Governorate, Oman, during initial phase of first wave of COVID-19 pandemic in April 2020 which highlighted the existence of vigilant surveillance system of the country.

The field investigation was done to confirm an outbreak and to prevent transmission by isolating the cases and vaccinating the unvaccinated children and lastly to make critical recommendations that should be applied to prevent similar outbreaks in the future.
Gender Analysis of Writing E-Mails Received from Graduate Students at Saudi Universities
Authors: Almohaimeed Noorah A.
Published: September 2022

The relationships students form with faculty play a critical role in their success at university, it can ease students’ fears about seeking assistance on assignments and other issues they may encounter. Therefore, e-mails have become an important part of the educational process. Accordingly, this study aims to explore the impact of gender orientation on the language used by Saudi students writing e-mails to their instructors at Saudi universities. The study depends on Media-Richness Theory (MRT). It intends to stay away from misinterpretation or disarray in cross-gender communications and encourage instructors and students to gain more familiarity with common communication styles in Saudi Arabia. MRT is used to analyze three linguistic features, namely abbreviations, emoticons, and word length. This study utilized a quantitative research design. Considering 24 e-mail samples, 12 were received from male students and 12 were from females. Among male students, the findings indicate that abbreviations are used in their e-mail communications but less often by female students. With regards to emoticons, female students tend to use them more frequently than male students. Lastly, in the case of word length, female students appeared with a significant number of words per e-mail, whereas few male students did.
Anomalous Diffusion with Caputo-Fabrizio Time Derivative: an Inverse Problem.
Authors: Seminara S. A. , Troparevsky M. I. , Fabio M. A. , La Mura G.
Published: September 2022

In this work we approximate the source for a non homogeneous fractionaldiffusion equation in 1D, from measurements of the concentration at a finite number ofpoints. We use Caputo-Fabrizio time fractional derivative to model anomalous diffusion.Separating variables, we arrive to a linear system which provides approximate values forthe Fourier coefficients of the unknown source. Numerical examples show the efficiency ofthe method, as well as some of its practical limitations.
Rotational Solitary Wave Interactions Over an Obstacle
Authors: Flamarion M. V.
Published: September 2022

In this work we investigate the propagation of rotational solitary waves over a submerged obstacle in a vertically sheared shallow water channel with constant vorticity. In the weakly nonlinear regime, the problem is formulated in the forced Korteweg-de Vries framework. The initial value problem for this equation is solved numerically using a Fourier pseudospectral method with integrating factor. Solitary waves are taken as initial data, and the interaction wave-current-topography is analysed. We identify three types of regimes according to the intensity of the vorticity. A rotational solitary wave can bounce back and forth over the obstacle remaining trapped for large times, it can pass over the obstacle without reversing its direction or the wave can be blocked, i.e., it bounces back and forth above the obstacle until reaching a steady state. Such behaviour resembles the classical damped spring-mass system.

In this note, we consider the Complex Ginzburg-Landau equations with a bilinear control term in the real line. We prove well-posedness results concerned with the initial value problem for these equations in Zhidkov spaces using Splitting methods.
Sparse Estimation of the Precision Matrix and Plug-In Principle in Linear Discriminant Analysis for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Authors: Picco M. L. , Ruiz M. S.
Published: September 2022

In this paper, a new method for supervised classification of hyperspectral images is proposed for the case in which the size of the training sample is small. It consists of replacing  in the Mahalanobis  distance the maximum likelihood estimator of the precision matrix   by a  sparse estimator. The method is compared with two other existing versions of \textit{LDA} sparse, both in real and simulated images.
Libertad frente a esclavismo: la Revolución Gloriosa y la cuestión abolicionista (1868-1873)
Authors: Pinto Tortosa Antonio Jesús
Published: September 2022

En el presente artículo analizo el devenir del abolicionismo en el Sexenio Democrático, valorando su empuje y el de los intereses esclavistas opuestos. El artículo comienza con sus antecedentes en la España decimonónica para, a continuación, describir el contexto en que nació la Sociedad Abolicionista Española (1865). Después se desgrana su actividad tras la Gloriosa (1868), prestando atención a los proyectos de Manuel Becerra (1870). Por último, expongo las repercusiones de la legislación de Segismundo Moret (1870) y Tomás Mosquera (1873), ministros de Ultramar que anticiparon la supresión de la esclavitud en Puerto Rico por la Primera República (1873).
grandes potencias ante la Gloriosa. Otro desafío nacional para el equilibrio europeo
Authors: Pascual Sastre Isabel María
Published: September 2022

Los procesos revolucionarios liberales y nacionales en la Europa de la primera mitad del siglo xix tuvieron lugar en oleadas (1820, 1830 y 1848). La revolución española de 1868 surgía en un momento aparte. Por ello, es susceptible de ser interpretada en términos de excepcionalidad. Objetivo de este trabajo es analizar cómo el éxito de la Gloriosa desafió el equilibrio europeo, frágil desde 1866. Y mostrar que esta revolución nacional, sin pretenderlo, supuso una amenaza para unos y un estímulo para otros, contribuyendo al final del orden internacional hasta entonces imperante.
Prensa e identidades nacionales durante la Guerra del Paraguay (1864-1870)
Authors: Johansson María Lucrecia
Published: September 2022

En la segunda mitad del siglo xix, Paraguay fue el escenario de la guerra más sangrienta de América del Sur. Entre 1864 y 1870, las fuerzas paraguayas se enfrentaron a los ejércitos de la coalición formada por Argentina, Brasil y Uruguay en lo que se denominó Guerra de la Triple Alianza. La cobertura periodística del conflicto en los países combatientes fue significativa. Desde la perspectiva de la historia cruzada, el objetivo de este trabajo es investigar los intercambios producidos por la prensa de ambos bandos para establecer cómo los entrecruzamientos periodísticos sirvieron a la creación de nuevas imágenes mutuas, recíprocamente construidas.

De las políticas sociales al Estado del Bienestar. Sincronías y asimetrías entre Italia y España en el siglo xx
Authors: Minesso Michela
Published: September 2022

Los estudios sobre las políticas sociales se han desarrollado a partir de la década de 1980, cuando se inició con todo su dramatismo la crisis del Estado del Bienestar. Las ciencias sociales han venido proponiendo desde entonces auténticos modelos interpretativos propios de los diferentes modelos de bienestar, incluido el sistema de bienestar mediterráneo al que están asociados países como España e Italia. Pero ¿cómo ha reaccionado la historiografía? Este ensayo recorre los estudios históricos de las políticas sociales desde finales del siglo xix hasta el xx, para identificar los factores que han caracterizado la trayectoria que en ambos países ha conducido de las políticas sociales al Estado del Bienestar. El cuadro resultante es complejo, caracterizado por las asimetrías y las asimetrías entre dos realidades, las analicemos desde el punto de vista del papel del Estado y de sus instituciones, «desde arriba», o desde las acciones puestas en marcha por la sociedad civil, por medio de las asociaciones de socorros mutuos o del sindicalismo, «desde abajo».
