Aptitudes de juicio estético y visión espacial en alumnos de arquitectura
Authors: Iñarra Abad Susana , Sender Contell Marina , Pérez de los Cobos Cassinello Marta
Published: September 2021

El alumno que ingresa en los grados de arquitectura debe tener unos conocimientos previos en lo referente a sus aptitudes gráficas, que no siempre queda garantizado con la formación recibida en bachillerato. El trabajo aquí presentado realiza un análisis en los sistemas de evaluación de aptitudes previas en torno a dos cualidades fundamentales que favorecerán el buen desarrollo de las asignaturas gráficas para el alumno que las haya adquirido con anterioridad:  La visión espacial y las aptitudes de juicio estético. Aunque estos dos conceptos sean de carácter abstracto, existe literatura científica que permitirá analizar cómo éstas se adquieren y, sobre todo, cómo se pueden cuantificar y medir. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la relación existente entre los resultados en ambos rangos de aptitudes y las diferentes asignaturas gráficas de primero: Dibujo Arquitectónico, Análisis de Formas y Geometría Descriptiva.

The students entering the architecture degree must have prior knowledge regarding their graphic skills, which is not always guaranteed within the education received in high school. The work here presented performs analysis in the evaluation systems of previous skills around two fundamental qualities that will favor the good development of the graphic subjects for the student who has acquired them previously: Spatial vision and aesthetic judgment skills. Although these two concepts are abstract in nature, there is scientific literature that will allow us to analyze how they are acquired and above all, how they can be quantified and measured. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between the results in both skill ranges and the different first-class graphic subjects: Architectural Drawing, Shape Analysis and Descriptive Geometry.
El taller de paisaje, estrategias y objetivos, empatia, la arquitectura como respuesta
Authors: Jiliberto Herrera José Luis
Published: September 2021

En el taller de paisaje intentamos que el proceso de proyecto sea un proceso, en alguna medida, verificable y objetivable, y que responda al trabajo de investigación y diagnóstico del alumno. Era un objetivo inicial huir de la evaluación/corrección subjetiva del trabajo de lxs alumnxs, por tanto, buscábamos que, por medio del proceso y trabajo de investigación en torno a las cuestiones planteadas, lxs alumnxs llegasen a unos objetivos proyectuales de forma que estos objetivos fuesen la regla de medir y valorar en qué medida la arquitectura, finalmente propuesta, respondía a los objetivos enunciados. El proceso de teorización de la metodología de aprendizaje ha sido un proceso natural de pruebas y errores en el que intentamos que lxs alumnxs encuentren la arquitectura que es su respuesta a los problemas del proyecto.

In the landscape workshop we try to make the project process, to some measure, verifiable and objective, and to respond to the student's research and diagnostic work. It was an initial objective to avoid the subjective evaluation/correction of the students' work, therefore, we tried to make sure that, through the process and the research work around the questions raised, the students reached some project objectives so that these objectives were the rule to measure and assess to what extent the architecture, finally proposed, responded to the stated objectives. The process of theorisation of the learning methodology has been a natural trial and error process in which we try to make the students find the architecture that is their answer to the project's problems.
Yo, tú, nosotras y el tiempo en el espacio habitado
Authors: Morales Soler Eva , Minguet Medina Jorge
Published: September 2021

El curso de proyectos arquitectónicos que se presenta se desarrolla en los primeros años de aprendizaje de la arquitectura y busca un encuentro del estudiante con el espacio habitado como un ente no cuantitativo y neutro, sino altamente cualificado, y cargado de sentido, vivencia y emotividad. Para ello, se parte de explorar y hacer consciente la larga experiencia que todos registramos como habitantes, ejercientes de nuestro propio modo de vida, desde la infancia, para observarla con detenimiento, analizarla, ponerla en crisis y en valor. Este ejercicio iniciático nos permite ir construyendo el ‘yo habito’. Partimos de esta introspección para poder construir el ‘nosotros’ y finalmente vincularnos con ‘lo común’ a partir de diálogos, conflictos y aciertos. Diferentes escalas de relaciones y formas de vida que nos facilitan desarrollar una variación de destrezas proyectuales vinculadas con el habitar contemporáneo en la ciudad existente y en la que está por venir.

The architectural design course presented here, takes place in the first years of the architectural studies curriculum, and seeks to introduce the student to the inhabited space as a non-quantitative and neutral entity, but as a highly qualified one, full of meaning, experience and emotion. To do this, we start by exploring and becoming conscious of the long experience we all have as inhabitants, by exercising our own way of life from childhood, to observe it in detail, analyse it and put it in crisis, and also into value. This initiatory exercise allows us to build the 'I dwell'. We start from this introspection to be able to build the 'we' and finally link up with 'the commons' through dialogue, conflict and achievement. Different scales of relationships and ways of life that enable us to develop a variation of design skills linked to contemporary life in the existing city and in the city to come.
El análisis de proyectos como aprendizaje transversal en Diseño de Interiores
Authors: González Vera Víctor Miguel , Fernández Contreras Raúl , Chamizo Nieto Francisco José
Published: September 2021

El Grado en Diseño de Interiores –Enseñanza Artística Superior de Diseño– se encuentra en reciente implantación en Andalucía. Con un Plan de Estudios organizado de manera jerárquica por materias y asignaturas, la situación de partida del alumnado del primer curso no ayuda: sus conocimientos previos no suelen estar equiparados y la visión general que tienen de la carrera no siempre se adecua a la realidad. Dentro de este contexto, se establece una colaboración entre cuatro asignaturas –(1) Análisis de proyectos de calidad reconocida, (2) Sistemas de representación, (3) Representación vectorial y (4) Materiales de construcción 1: el edificio– para, desde una visión holística, facilitar la transversalidad situando a Proyectos como el marco de convergencia del resto de asignaturas implicadas. Para ello, se propone una metodología activa, Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos, con el fin de huir del análisis descriptivo per se y, así, propiciar una mayor comprensión del proceso proyectual.

The degree in Interior Design –Higher Artistic Design Education– is a recent development in Andalusia Community. Even though the curriculum is organized hierarchically by subjects, the beginner students’ initial position does not help: their previous knowledge is not usually equal and the general vision they have about the deegree is not always conform to reality. Within this context, a collaboration is established between four subjects –(1) Analysis of well-known projects, (2) Methods of representation, (3) Computer visualization and (4) Construction materials 1: the building– in order to take a holistic approach. Transversality is the thread which runs all the subjects involved thanks to Projects. For this, an active methodology, Poject-Based Learning, is proposed in order to avoid descriptive analysis and develope a greater understanding of the project process.
Logros y límites para una enseñanza basada en el aprendizaje en servicio y la responsabilidad social universitaria
Authors: Ríos Mantilla Renato Sebastián , Trovato Graziella
Published: September 2021

El siguiente artículo muestra la importancia de la Responsabilidad Social Universitaria (RSU) en el ámbito Latinoamericano, en especial, en la ciudad de Quito – Ecuador. La investigación pretende mostrar un panorama general de la RSU y su implementación en el contexto, analizar sus fortalezas y sus fragilidades para proponer sinergias a largo plazo que permitan robustecer el sistema, generar debates y alcanzar mayores impactos que estén acorde a los planes de desarrollo de cada país. Para un análisis crítico es necesaria una mirada desde fuera para ver la coherencia de las actividades realizadas. Si bien es cierto que la RSU busca destacar el aspecto social, éste no puede ser desligado de enfoques de derechos humanos y justicia medio ambiental. Los cuatro casos de estudio demuestran diversos enfoques de aprendizaje en servicio (ApS) en la carrera de arquitectura y su articulación con cada postura universitaria de la RSU.

The following article shows the importance of University Social Responsibility (USR) in Latin America, especially in the city of Quito - Ecuador. The research aims to show a general overview of USR and its implementation in the context, analyze its strengths and weaknesses to propose long-term synergies that allow strengthening the system, generating debates and achieving greater impacts that are in accordance with the development plans of each country. For a critical analysis, a look from the outside is necessary to see the coherence of the activities carried out. Although it is true that USR seeks to highlight the social aspect, it cannot be separated from human rights and environmental justice approaches. The study cases demonstrates different approaches to service learning (SL) in the architecture career and its articulation with each university position of the USR.
El Taller de materia: creatividad en torno al comportamiento estructural

Published: September 2021

Esta  comunicación presenta la actual estructura de las asignaturas de Construcción I y Construcción II en el primer curso del Grado en Fundamentos de la Arquitectura de la Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Valladolid,  con la incorporación a partir del curso 17-18 de nuevas metodologias docentes. Explicaremos el cambio implementado en la docencia, que pretende adaptarse a la circunstancia de que estas asignaturas se encuentren en primero. Por un lado, veremos como en  la parte teórica, se hace un esfuerzo por esencializar conceptos y se utiliza la similitud entre el cuerpo humano y los edificios para explicar los contenidos de teoría. En la parte práctica, explicaremos las características del Taller de Materia, que recoge experiencias precedentes de experimentación intuitiva con materiales cotidianos para diseñar modelos estructurales a pequeña escala.

With the timely celebration of the centennial of the birth of the "Bauhaus", a project coordinated among various subjects was proposed for the students of the second year of the Degree in Design of the School of Architecture of the Universidad de Navarra. With the "Triadic Ballet" directed by Oskar Schlemmer in 1923 as the main reference, the proposal was to create a real performative event, designed jointly by the fifty-three students who made up the course and represented in the space of the School itself. A teaching project that gave the opportunity to try out with the students ways of collaborative work between different creative disciplines and areas of design, to find in the frontier space between them ways of artistic innovation and to experiment with the School of Architecture itself as a space of interaction, exchange and generation of project ideas.

Convertir la experiencia en experimento: la vida confinada como escuela de futuro
Authors: Nanclares da Veiga Alberto
Published: September 2021

Con el cierre de las escuelas por la crisis del Covid-19, todas las clases se convirtieron súbitamente en e-learning. Toda la población europea quedó confinada, los estudiantes de intercambio volvieron a casa y los españoles estuvieron encerrados en casa durante unas 18 semanas. Muchas situaciones hasta entonces inconcebibles se convirtieron en imprescindibles para superar la crisis, creando caos, ansidedad y depresión entre profesores y estudiantes. Migramos nuestro curso de espacio público de sus clases callejeras para convertirlo en una comunidad internacional on-line, donde cuidarnos de los desórdenes por los que tuvimos que atravesar, aprovechando el florecimiento de iniciativas ciudadanas del que fuimos testigos. Pusimos como ejercicio de curso el análisis y desarrollo de iniciativas propias de cuidado, alivio del encierro y apoyo social, en escalas doméstica, edificio, barrio y ciudad. Estos trabajos permitieron a los estudiantes mejorar sus crisis personales mientras que producían conocimiento a partir del mayor experimento del siglo XXI.

When schools closed due to the COVID-19 crisis, all courses went suddenly online. Most population in Europe was locked down, Erasmus students came back home, and spanish students were severely confined for at least 8 weeks. Many situations that were inconceivable, became the must for overcoming the crisis, causing havoc, anxiety and depression among students and teachers. From the subject “Informal public spaces”, we transformed our street course into an international online community that took care of the different disorders students went through, taking advantage of the flourishment of civic initiatives Europe witnessed: As the goal of the course, students developed, analysed and studied their own experiences and initiatives for caring, easing the lockdown, and social help, both in domestic, city and neighbourhood scales, which in turn helped them to ease their personal crisis and allow them to extract knowledge out of the biggest social experiment of the XXI century.

Published: September 2021

El máster habilitante para el ejercicio profesional de la arquitectura tiene como objetivo aportar conocimientos complementarios y avanzados a las enseñanzas recibidas en el grado. En este contexto se desarrolla el Taller TFM: “Materia y Lugar” del Máster en Arquitectura de la eAM’, donde partiendo de contextos reales de implementación, se propone una interacción entre el proyecto, la tecnología y los espacios sociales, ambientales y económicos. El objetivo del Taller es el diseño y construcción de un prototipo a escala 1:1 que sea capaz de integrar todas las fases del proceso, desde los primeros análisis del lugar hasta la definición material y constructiva del elemento arquitectónico. Los trabajos se llevaron a cabo en la Reserva Natural Concertada “Charca de Suárez”, situada en Motril (Granada). Un espacio frágil y complejo pero que resulta adecuado para desarrollar diseños arquitectónicos basados en técnicas de bio-construcción con enfoque fundamentalmente ecológico.

The qualifying master's degree for the professional practice of architecture, aims to provide complementary and advanced knowledge to the teachings received in the degree. In this context, the final master's work workshop: "Matter and Place" is developed in the Master of Architecture taught at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Málaga. It is a project, with a real location and an interaction between the project, technology and social, environmental, and economic spaces is proposed. The main objective of the workshop is the design and construction of a 1:1 scale prototype, which can integrate all the phases of the process, from the first analysis of the place to the material definition and finally, the construction of the architectural element. The works were carried out in the "Charcha Suarez" Concerted Natural Reserve, located in Motril (Granada). A fragile and complex space, but one that was suitable for developing architectural designs based on bio-construction techniques with a fundamentally ecological approach.
Role-Play como estrategia docente en el aprendizaje de la construcción
Authors: Pérez Gálvez Filomena , Pedreño Rojas Manuel Alejandro , Morales Conde María Jesús , Rubio de Hita Paloma
Published: September 2021

La experiencia docente que se presenta se enmarca dentro de la asignatura de Construcción 6, del Grado en Fundamentos de Arquitectura de la Universidad de Sevilla. Hasta el momento, en la parte teórica de la materia se seguía un procedimiento de clase magistral mediante la forma tradicional. Sin embargo, y con el objetivo de romper un poco con la monotonía de clases magistrales imperante, se opta por sustituir una de las sesiones teóricas por un role-play titulado “simulacro de juicio de responsabilidad civil”. Con él se consigue acercar de una manera amena y atractiva al alumnado al conocimiento de una situación real de la profesión así como facilitarle la comprensión de los papeles de los distintos agentes en él intervienen. Los estudiantes han hecho una valoración muy positiva de esta metodología, incluso negando la capacidad de obtener este aprendizaje con el modelo tradicional.

The presented teaching experience is framed within the subject of “Construcción 6”, of the Degree in Architecture of the University of Seville. Until now, the theoretical part of the subject followed a master class procedure using the traditional way. However, and with the aim of breaking a bit with the prevailing monotony of classes, it is decided to replace one of the theoretical sessions with a role-play entitled "civil liability judgement trial". With it, it was possible to bring students closer to the knowledge of a real situation of the profession in a pleasant and attractive way, as well as to facilitate their understanding of the roles of the different agents involved. Students have made a very positive assessment of this methodology, even denying the ability to obtain this learning by the traditional model.
Taller vertical y juego de roles en el aprendizaje de programas arquitectónicos emergentes
Authors: Castellano-Pulido Francisco Javier , Gavilanes Vélaz de Medrano Juan , Minguet Medina Jorge , Carrasco Rodríguez Francisco
Published: September 2021

Esta experiencia educativa describe la utilización de estrategias de aprendizaje cooperativo en taller vertical para solventar algunos de los problemas detectados en la docencia de las asignaturas de Proyectos Arquitectónicos para abordar programas complejos emergentes de hábitat colectivo. El problema principal consiste en la carencia de “puentes conceptuales” entre los distintos programas académicos que a menudo limitan las posibilidades de intercambio entre ellos. Experiencias previas, que sincronizaban la docencia de asignaturas de distintos niveles, mostraron las virtudes de este tipo de estrategias para incentivar el aprendizaje entre alumnos pero desvelaron dificultades para su desarrollo dentro de la estructura horizontal actual de la docencia en Europa. El proceso de innovación docente aquí descrito muestra cómo la introducción del “juego de roles” permite atenuar ciertos problemas del trabajo en equipo del taller vertical, acelerando la toma de decisiones y mejorando los resultados.

This educational experience describes the use of cooperative learning strategies in a vertical workshop to solve some of the problems detected in the teaching of Architectural Projects subjects to address complex emerging programs of collective habitat. The main problem is found in the lack of “conceptual bridges" between the different academic programs that often limit the possibilities of exchange between them. Previous teaching experiences, synchronizing different levels of subjects, showed the strengths of this kind of strategies to encourage learning among students but revealed difficulties for development within the current horizontal structure of teaching in Europe. The teaching innovation experience described shows how the introduction of “role play” allows mitigating certain issues of teamwork in vertical workshops, speeding up decision-making and improving results.
Un extraño caso de árbol tenedor: Madrid y Ahmedabad: aula coopera [Spain/in/India]

Tras la experiencia acumulada de varios años en el desarrollo de Proyectos Fin de Carrera de Cooperación, durante el mentalmente lejano verano de 2019 se llevaron a cabo dos cursos siameses, uno en España y otro en India. Ambos fueron organizados por el aula coopera [Spain/in/India] inscrita en el Grupo de investigación Cultura del Hábitat del DPA ETSAM UPM. Urban Consdensers. Updating heritage áreas brotaron de un mismo tronco conceptual con dos injertos pro-activos y complementarios de la cooperación en estrecha colaboración con la ONG Brihati Foundation. Una vía alternativa de acometer los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje en proyectos arquitectónicos operando desde la experiencia in situ de habitar en la cultura y las áreas de intervención. Un proceso secuencial progresivo y acumulativo -observar, analizar, actuar- para el desarrollo de propuestas viables y adecuadas que promuevan el progreso social. Un extraño caso de árbol tenedor.

After several years of experience in the development of Cooperation Final Projects, during the mentally distant summer of 2019 two Siamese courses were held, one in Spain and the other in India. Both were organized by the aula coopera [Spain/in/India] registered in the Research Group Cultura del Hábitat of the DPA ETSAM UPM. Urban Consdensers. Updating heritage areas sprouted from the same conceptual trunk with two pro-active and complementary cooperation grafts in close collaboration with the NGO Brihati Foundation. An alternative way to undertake the teaching-learning processes in architectural projects operating from the in situ experience of inhabiting the culture and the areas of intervention. A progressive and cumulative sequential process - observe, analyze, act - for the development of viable and adequate proposals that promote social progress. A curious case of fork tree.

Published: September 2021

El presente trabajo expone y analiza la situación vivida en las escuelas de arquitectura de España durante el confinamiento de la primavera de 2020, que supuso la inesperada y rápida implantación de docencia no presencial en todos sus planes de estudios. Utilizando como caso de estudio la Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de la Universitat Politècnica de València, se hace un repaso de las condiciones en las que se implantó la virtualidad, las variadas circunstancias a las que hicieron frente los distintos tipos de asignatura y las lecciones aprendidas de aquella experiencia que, sin duda, invitan a una reflexión sobre la docencia actual de la arquitectura que debe aprovechar los impredecibles hallazgos de este peculiar periodo.

The present work sets out and analyses the situation experienced in the Spanish schools of architecture in the time of the stay-at-home order during the spring of 2020, which meant the unexpected and immediate implementation of online teaching in all CVs. Using the Higher Technical School of Architecture of the Polytechnic University of Valencia as case study, a thorough review of the conditions under which non face-to-face teaching was established and the varied circumstances faced by the different type of courses is performed. Lessons learned during that experience do invite to a reflection on nowadays teaching which should take advantage of the unforeseen findings of this peculiar period.

Published: September 2021

Context.—

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly infectious agent, with the propensity to cause severe illness. While vaccine uptake has been increasing in recent months, many regions remain at risk of significant coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19)–related health care burden. Health systems will continue to benefit from the availability of a variety of clinical and laboratory models when other triaging models are equivocal.

Objective.—

To validate previously reported clinical laboratory abnormalities seen in COVID-19 patients and identify what laboratory parameters might be outcome predictive.

Design.—

We undertook an observational study of hospital-admitted COVID-19 patients (n = 113), looking at a broad selection of clinical, laboratory, peripheral blood smear, and outcome data during discrete discovery and validation periods from March 2020 to November 2020.

Results.—

We confirmed the findings of previous studies noting derangement of a variety of laboratory parameters in COVID-19 patients, including peripheral blood morphologic changes. We also devised a simple-to-use decision tree by which patients could be risk stratified on the basis of red blood cell count, creatinine, urea, and atypical plasmacytoid lymphocyte (“covidocyte”) count. This outcome classifier performed comparably to the World Health Organization clinical classifier and the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio.

Conclusions.—

Our data add to the increasing number of studies cataloguing laboratory changes in COVID-19 and support the clinical utility of incorporating blood morphologic assessment in the workup of hospitalized COVID-19 patients.
On the Selection of Optimal Propeller Diameter for a 120m Cargo Vessel
Authors: Andersson Jennie , Gustafsson Robert , Eslamdoost Arash , Bensow Rickard E.
Published: September 2021

In the preliminary design of a propulsion unit the selection of propeller diameter is most commonly based on open water tests of systematic propeller series. The optimum diameter obtained from the propeller series data is however not considered to be representative for the operating conditions behind the ship, instead a slightly smaller diameter is often selected. We have used computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to study a 120m cargo vessel with an integrated rudder bulb-propeller hubcap system and a 4-bladed propeller series, to increase our understanding of the hydrodynamic effects influencing the optimum. The results indicate that a 3-4 % smaller diameter is optimal in behind conditions in relation to open water conditions at the same scale factor. The reason is that smaller, higher loaded propellers perform better together with a rudder system. This requires that the gain in transverse kinetic energy losses thanks to the rudder overcomes the increase in viscous losses in the complete propulsion system.

Ode ao teatro musicado nacional em quatro etapas, um prólogo e um epílogo
Authors: Neves Larissa de Oliveira
Published: September 2021

Este artigo apresenta o caminho histórico do abrasileiramento da opereta e da revista de ano até a composição de gêneros de palco novos, a burleta e a revista carnavalesca, a fim de pontuar sua extrema importância para a constituição do teatro brasileiro. Trata-se da exposição deste percurso, de maneira a demonstrar a ampla motivação musicada do teatro brasileiro de todos os tempos e como, na verdade, o teatro musicado popular nunca foi um tipo periférico de arte cênica, quando comparado com o teatro “literário”, ou “moderno”, mas, sim, consiste no centro, no motivador, sendo talvez o gênero mais proeminente, da conformação do teatro nacional.
A Nova Mulher: Inquietações masculinas e burlas femininas no cabaré berlinense
Authors: Oliveira Lívia Sudare
Published: September 2021

A Nova Mulher foi um fenômeno complexo, multidimensional, heterogêneo e gradual que alcançou expressão na Alemanha durante a República de Weimar. O direito à participação feminina na política, garantido pela Constituição de 1919 e o afluxo de mulheres no mercado de trabalho geraram tensões masculinas acerca dos papéis de gênero. O cabaré, enquanto um gênero comentador de seu tempo, trouxe para a cena as ansiedades geradas pela Nova Mulher, representando-a através de tipificações. Este artigo pretende analisar algumas destas tipificações - indício das inquietações masculinas - em contraponto às estratégias femininas para burlá-las.
Broadway ou West End: Influências dos musicais anglófonos na produção dos musicais no (e do) Brasil
Authors: Mundim Tiago Elias
Published: September 2021

Este artigo buscou levantar uma questão acerca da nomenclatura dada a uma vertente do Teatro Musical, que comumente é designada no Brasil como sendo “da Broadway”, em uma espécie de categorização de um estilo de musical ao invés de uma denominação da localidade de origem do espetáculo. A proposta apresentada neste artigo foi denominar esses espetáculos como “musicais anglófonos” – uma vez que muitos desses musicais importados para o Brasil tiveram sua origem tanto no West End (em Londres) quanto na Broadway (em Nova Iorque) – e apresentar suas influências no crescimento dessa vertente teatral no Brasil contemporâneo, tanto na produção desses musicais importados e realizados “no” Brasil quanto na produção de musicais originais “do” Brasil.
Being in the Era of Acceleration
Authors: Imamichi Tomoaki D.
Published: September 2021

This paper explores “being” from an experiential and a physical/material perspective in the context of the era of acceleration. A focal point is the human relationship to technology and the environment, more specifically, this paper expands Ander’s concepts of Herstellungskraft (productive powers) and Vorstellungskraft (imaginative powers) of nuclear weapons and then applies this framework to our current crisis of environmental destruction. The paper also explores defining technologies as they relate to the dilemmas above, analogies of traveller and tourist, and the Danish concept of hygge (as both a tradition and as a response to acceleration).
Psychologies of not Knowing
Authors: Ruck Nora , Hametner Katharina , Rutherford Alexandra , Brunner Markus , Wrbouscheck Markus
Published: September 2021

Social and liberation movements all over the world have acted on the premise that oppression is kept alive, among other ways, through psychological mechanisms. Feminist and critical race epistemologies such as “feminist standpoint theories” and “epistemological ignorance” suggest that there might be different forms of not knowing involved depending on the social location of the (not) knowing subject. In this paper we suggest that the concrete psychological mechanisms involved in not knowing or outright ignorance differ according to one’s position in the social fabric of oppression and privilege. Drawing on various critical psychological and psychoanalytic reflections, as well as interpreting selected passages from a group discussion among elderly retirement home residents in Vienna, we illustrate how social position is translated into lack of knowledge about systems of oppression and privilege
Changing self in the digital age
Authors: Tonks Randal G.
Published: September 2021

This article integrates William James’ (1890) theoretical model of Self with contemporary theoretical discourse and recent research on the impact of digital technology upon the Self. An overview of James’ self-theory is presented and followed by a detailed review of contemporary publications on self in our increasingly digital world; organized around the Spiritual, Social and Material realms of James’ “Me”. This is followed by this author’s extension of James’ concept of “I” into contemporary discourse on the person in terms of authenticity, agency and power. It is shown that the “Spiritual Self” is reflected in technology as fragmented, decentred and dislocated while the “Social Self” has expanded into virtual communities; continuing to seek recognition from others, but in a magnified and accelerated fashion. A cultural shift has been identified towards one of simulation and surveillance. Transformations of the “Material Self” in terms of physical bodies, interaction with the material world, and with material others, are presently observed. This author’s conceptual and theoretical exploration has also shown a corresponding loss of control and fracturing of the status of the person through the rise of surveillance and loss of personal rights that challenges the theoretical construct and everyday experience of persons.
“We were at this crossroads”
Authors: Pedersen Oliver Clifford
Published: September 2021

People and societies are guided by what they imagine to lie beyond the present, by what can and should be the case in the future. Yet people do not always agree about the form, content or path to realisation of a given imagined future. As a result, conflicts can arise over something that does not exist yet. In this paper, I propose to integrate theories of social and alternative representations with a sociocultural psychological interpretation of imagination, in order to explore the addressivity of futures and to call for more studies that explicitly take into account the future’s role in the present. I draw on a dialogical case study that was carried out on the Faroe Islands, more precisely on the island of Suðuroy. Whereas the Faroe Islands are experiencing a rapid acceleration in growth, Suðuroy has failed to keep pace and has witnessed decades of emigration and a worsening of its population’s relative socio-economic situation. Islanders liken the current situation to standing at a crossroads, while being unable to agree on which path must be taken in order to reinvigorate a shrinking future. By analysing how one of the two major social representations constructs the other – its alternative representation – I suggest that the absence of transformative dialogue results from incompatible futures. Furthermore, in line with a sociocultural psychological perspective, I also attempt to move beyond the homogenising force inherent in social representation theory by introducing Ingolf and Karin, whose stories illustrate how social and alternative representations are not uniformly shared and enacted, but take different forms in light of unique life experiences.
Doing Gender Through Patterns
Authors: Cabra Martina
Published: September 2021

in play. I build on feminist questionings of the notion of gender identity within the field of gender studies, to outline a sociocultural, psychological proposition. I propose to bridge the problem of sameness and fluidity in gender through the notion of psychological patterns, as semiotic and relational modes through which people express and develop their actions (Cabra, in press; Zittoun, 2020). The paper proceeds in three moves. First, I present the central tenets of a sociocultural psychology and develop an understanding of gender within this perspective. Second, I present and develop the idea of psychological patterns. Third, to substantiate my proposition, I present two examples of children doing gender and the patterns I argue they have so far developed.
Reflections on “Psychotechnics”
Authors: Dadico Luciana
Published: September 2021

In this article, I discuss the genesis of psychotechnics in Brazil, from 1920 to 1950, starting from narratives about the history of psychology and analyzing, in a comparative way, three psychotechnics courses held in the city of São Paulo. Although these courses respond to local projects aimed at industry and education, our analysis reveals that they also express the materialization of a global project, built on statistical tools, standardized equipment and international circulation of texts and intellectuals. Measuring human activities was in the core of the public recognition of Psychology as a field of knowledge. The critical review of this history is important in order to understand how Psychology took part in building our current way of life. Moreover, understanding this movement within the field can help psychologists today in their work to reduce suffering, but also to change this rationalized state of things, responsible for the suffering production. Such changes imply refusing consolidated models for thinking and research in Psychology, in favor of more interdisciplinary and critical approaches.
The Subject Lagging Behind the Acceleration of Neoliberal Capitalist Discourse
Authors: Pavón-Cuéllar David
Published: September 2021

The capitalist discourse, as formulated by Lacan, imposes a ceaseless movement, a continuous displacement without friction or obstacles, which is going faster and faster as we get into deep neoliberalism. Its acceleration is correlated with its freedom—the freedom of neoliberal capitalism, the free market and the free circulation of goods, including subjective commodities. People must follow the rhythm of production and consumption, a rhythm that, as Marx showed, consumes people as much as it consumes their environment, their planet and their conditions of existence, which are also those of capitalism itself. The capitalist discourse, according to Lacan, undermines itself by consuming its own foundation. The capital even consumes itself by its effectiveness. The efficiency of capital, which implies an unsustainable progressive acceleration, is what this paper will examine at the subjective level. It will show how the subject is radically excluded— forclosed—when there is no time for them to live, stop and exist, be unoccupied, look back, resignify their history and understand until the moment of conclusion. Without conclusion of anything, there is no interval to unfold the subject’s existence. There is no point at which life can be anything other than labour and consumption, i.e., production and realization of capital.
APPLICATION OF AN INTEGRATED MODEL TO A CONSTRUCTION AND BUILDING INDUSTRY FOR ENERGY- SAVING ASSESSMENT
Authors: Olanrewaju Oludolapo Akanni
Published: September 2021

The activities of the building and construction industry have made it one of the highest energy consumers and thus one of the highest emitters of greenhouse gases. The main objective of this study was to develop a system to determine energy saving in the industry. This was achieved through an integrated model of index decomposition analysis, an artificial neural network, and data envelopment analysis. Index decomposition analysis is used to understand the contribution of the factors responsible for energy consumption. These factors are inputs to the artificial neural network to predict the baseline energy consumption. The energy saving is finally determined through data envelopment analysis. The results showed that the integrated model presents a reasonable amount of energy saving in the building and construction industry.
A SYSTEM DYNAMICS APPROACH FOR STRATEGIC PLANNING OF CONSUMER ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES: THE CASE OF THE TELEVISION MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY IN EGYPT
Authors: Negmeldin Mohamed Abdelkhalek Attia , Heshmat Mahmoud , Eltawil Amr
Published: September 2021

In this paper, a system dynamics approach is introduced for the macro- planning of the selection of new product families in the consumer electronics industry in developing countries. A decision methodology structure is built that includes the impact factors of rapid technology changes and uncertainty. System dynamics models are designed to select the product family’s planning strategy, considering the different variables in marketing, product design, supply chain, and manufacturing method. The developed model is validated for a real case study of television manufacturing in Egypt. The results reveal that using system dynamics reflects the dynamics of the consumer electronics industry and can be used for its strategic planning.
