Verg. ecl. 1, 69: un verso controvertido y una pregunta para reflexionar
Authors: Álvarez Hernández Arturo
Published: August 2021

El verso Verg. ecl. 1, 69 se ha prestado a muy diversas interpretaciones desde los antiguos comentarios hasta las ediciones, comentarios y estudios de nuestros días. El presente artículo no pretende aportar una nueva solución sino repasar críticamente las diversas lecturas ensayadas para pasar a una reflexión acerca de la pregunta de la cual forma parte dicho verso (vv. 67-69). La posible alusión a la figura de Odiseo en esta pregunta abre la posibilidad de enriquecer la interpretación del poema en su conjunto.
Las virtudes del derecho inexacto: la imprecisión jurídica como estrategia literaria en Menandro (Samia 570-588 y Héroe 18-40)
Authors: Buis Emiliano J.
Published: August 2021

A pesar de que suele decirse que, a diferencia de las obras aristofánicas, la comedia de Menandro no se caracteriza por incluir referencias al derecho ateniense, un análisis de sus piezas conservadas permite apreciar un número considerable de alusiones a leyes, litigios y procedimientos judiciales. El objetivo de este trabajo es examinar dos pasajes en que se despliega ese recurso del plano jurídico (Sam. 570-588; Her. 18-40) con el fin de examinar las estrategias mediante las cuales allí Menandro manipula literariamente el derecho. En particular, se relevará en ambos textos la voluntad por apelar de modo genérico y vacilante al universo del derecho. A partir de una comparación con el pasaje de Escudo 174-189, se concluirá que la imprecisión y la vaguedad –características privilegiadas de estas referencias– replican los malentendidos tipos de los enredos cómicos y las incertidumbres de status con las que los argumentos de las piezas suelen revestir a sus personajes.
Experiencias didácticas con relatos grecolatinos y su incorporación en la ESI (Educación Sexual Integral)
Authors: Cortez Paloma
Published: August 2021

El presente trabajo establece un diálogo entre las propuestas formales para la implementación de la Educación Sexual Integral en las aulas (a partir de la Ley Nacional N° 26150 sancionada en 2006) y una serie de autorregistros de experiencias docentes en el nivel secundario, en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. En ellas se trabajó con la historia de amor de Penélope y Odiseo, las figuras de Circe y las sirenas y el mito de Procne y Filomena. Nuestra hipótesis es que estos relatos de la literatura clásica grecolatina, al ser revisitados con una perspectiva de género, no solo enriquecen la lectura de producciones posteriores, sino que también facilitan el tratamiento de tópicos sensibles relacionados con las desigualdades existentes entre mujeres y varones de una misma sociedad.
La moral sexual en contexto: pudicitia y αἰδώς en espacios públicos y privados en Hipólito de Eurípides y Heroida 4 de Ovidio
Authors: Flores Romina Andrea
Published: August 2021

Las complejidades de la moral humana han sido problematizadas y desarrolladas en la literatura de todos los tiempos. La conducta sexual es, por supuesto, una cuestión que no ha sido ignorada y si bien la moral sexual se centra en la actitud de las mujeres, los hombres también juegan un papel importante: el mito de Hipólito y Fedra es uno de los exempla más notables sobre el pudor y la castidad masculina. En este trabajo analizamos las representaciones sobre la conducta sexual de Fedra e Hipólito en la tragedia Hipólito de Eurípides y en la Heroida 4 de Ovidio. Para ello, confrontamos las concepciones sobre la moral sexual en las culturas griega y latina y los lexemas correspondientes a dicho tópico en ambas lenguas (pudicitia y pudor en latín, αἰδώς, ἁγνός y σωφροσύνη en griego). Posteriormente, consideramos los espacios de enunciación y acción de los personajes y la problematización sobre las posibles consecuencias de hacer públicas las acciones privadas.
Enfrentamientos en torno al poder: el mito de Antígona en la dramaturgia argentina contemporánea
Authors: Lobo Claudia Elizabeth , Rocha Rolando Jesús
Published: August 2021

En el intento por construir su identidad, cada cultura apela a elementos propios y ajenos, tratando de generar representaciones de sí misma. En el caso de la cultura argentina, entre los elementos no propios se encuentran los que pertenecen a la cultura grecolatina, entre ellos el sistema literario, en el que centramos nuestra mirada. Con diversas finalidades, los autores se apropian de los textos clásicos grecolatinos reelaborándolos y resignificándolos. En este trabajo nos centramos en una reescritura de Antígona de Sofócles: Antígonas: linaje de hembras de Jorge Huertas, dramaturgo argentino contemporáneo, para analizar las relaciones y los enfrentamientos que se gestan en torno al uso/abuso del poder. El traslado de la tragedia griega a la Argentina contemporánea permite tratar una problemática de vieja raigambre, el tema del poder y las relaciones que en torno a él se entablan, con nuevas miradas. Así, la apropiación y recreación de un texto clásico permite ensayar nuevos modos de decir la realidad, siempre compleja y múltiple, dando cuenta del aporte del mundo antiguo al corpus cultural occidental, en general, y argentino, en particular.
El himno a Enodia en el Ion de Eurípides
Authors: Ristorto Marcela Alejandra , Reyes Silvia Susana
Published: August 2021

El trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar la función que desempeña el himno a Enodia en el tercer estásimo de Ion (1048-1105), tanto en la trama como a nivel extraficcional. Se busca refutar las posturas críticas que a menudo han considerado que los cantos corales en la tragedia de Eurípides son poco relevantes para la acción desarrollada en escena. Desde una perspectiva diferente, se busca resaltar la relevancia que posee para la comprensión de Ión el himno a Enodia, diosa que aparentemente no tiene relación con el μῦθος de la tragedia, puesto que Enodia-Hécate no se involucra con Erecteo ni con su descendencia. La oda coral, como un himno εὐκτικός, remite a dos aspectos esenciales de la tragedia. Por un lado, siendo Enodia protectora de los partos y de los niños recién nacidos, las peticiones del coro remiten a la supuesta realidad de Creúsa, a su carencia de un heredero para el trono de Atenas. Por otro lado, Enodia, como hija de Deméter, remite a los misterios eleusinos y órficos. Además, en este himno el coro describe los ritos eleusinos, lo que permite interpretarlo en relación con los cultos mistéricos. Cabe señalar que esta oda también puede ser considerada como una defixio, que busca perjudicar a Ion.

Un lugar en la cooperativa. Emociones e imágenes morales en la producción de prácticas colectivas a partir de programas sociales
Authors: Pacífico Florencia Daniela
Published: August 2021

Este artículo recupera resultados de una investigación etnográfica desarrollada junto a integrantes de cooperativas creadas a partir del programa Argentina Trabaja pertenecientes al Movimiento Evita dentro de la Confederación de Trabajadores de la Economía Popular. Poniendo en suspenso los interrogantes acerca de los márgenes de “autonomía” o “dependencia” de las organizaciones frente al Estado y los debates sobre el clientelismo; procuro analizar los sentidos concretos que las personas le otorgan a su participación en las cooperativas. Sostengo que, aunque el trabajo en las cooperativas constituya un requisito que desde la planificación estatal se define como necesario para permanecer como titulares, la “obligatoriedad” no agota el sentido que formar parte de estos espacios tiene para las personas, ni define de forma directa los comportamientos esperados entre compañeros. Así pretendo arribar a una conceptualización de la participación que no la reduzca a una mera adhesión individual a un espacio colectivo ni a la realización de un conjunto estanco de tareas. Busco mostrar que aquello que se entiende por participación y el sostenimiento de las condiciones que la hacen posible concierne un proceso de construcción colectiva que compromete a las personas unas con otras, trabajando sobre las emociones y disputando imágenes morales.
Volver sobre los pasos

Published: August 2021

Ofrezco esta lectura a ojos de antropólogos con la convicción de que hay en ella material rico y abundante para un diálogo con nuestra disciplina, palabra de la que el autor de Aún aprendo (y también, humildemente, quien escribe) desconfía. Ginzburg es responsable de algunas de las reflexiones más antropológicas que pueden encontrarse en el campo de la historiografía, cosa de la que es enteramente consciente: su trabajo ha sido descrito como el de “un chamán” que “recoge los huesos de Sir James George Frazer (…) los cubre con la piel del filósofo Ludwig Wittgenstein y les devuelve a la vida” (Donniger 1991: 3, en Ginzburg 2020). Esta obra trata justamente sobre ese pasado, o ese tronco común, del cual abrevan nuestros oficios.

Os resultados discutidos neste estudo ampliam a capacidade de compreensão dos professores acerca de suas práticas pedagógicas, favorecendo amplamente às mudanças dada a flexibilidade do currículo, e promovendo a visão de conjunto para a tomada de consciência de todos os envolvidos. Conclui-se que através da articulação entre gestores, coordenadores pedagógicos e professores na discussão do planejamento, objetivos, expectativas e metas a serem alcançadas, o currículo das escolas municipais de Salvador possa atingir o objetivo maior da educação que é a formação integral do ser humano. Educar pressupõe transformar-se.
EAEU’S EXTERNAL CONVERGENCE ON GLOBAL ISSUES: EVIDENCE FROM THE UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY VOTING, 2000-2020
Authors: Amanov Shatlyk
Published: August 2021

This paper examines the voting behavior of the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) in the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to find out their preference similarities on foreign policy issues. Based on a specific data set of UNGA resolutions from 2000 to 2020 and using two different indexes of voting cohesion, the present research addresses two empirically motivated questions: to what extent does the EAEU speak in unison externally in the context of UNGA plenary? And secondly, what was the impact the formation of the EAEU in 2015 had upon common foreign policy? The results reveal that the EAEU scores a “medium” level of cohesion as measured within the UNGA context which may indicate that members oftentimes speak with one voice while defections still occur on controversial votes. Besides, the findings suggest that no meaningful cohesion difference exists between pre- and post-EAEU periods. Finally, the study finds that the Eurasian nations are most cohesive on developmental resolutions, but least cohesive on security and human rights issues as expressed in their recorded voting behavior.

Background: Measurement-based care (MBC) is an evidence-based practice that incorporates routine outcome assessment using validated rating scales to guide collaborative clinical decision-making. Although MBC results in improved outcomes for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), there are barriers to its broad implementation in clinical settings. The use of “enhanced” MBC (eMBC), with mobile apps that allow patients to track outcomes and engage in self-management via WeChat, may address some of these barriers. We hypothesize that implementation with eMBC using WeChat will be superior to standard MBC implementation using paper-pencil assessments at the clinic, for both implementation and clinical outcomes. Methods: We present a trial protocol for a 2-arm cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a hybrid implementation-effectiveness design comparing standard MBC implementation versus eMBC implementation with 6-month follow up in 12 mental health centers in Shanghai, China. The eMBC implementation uses a WeChat mini-program that includes outcome tracking using brief questionnaires and self-management lessons supplemented with support by a lay coach via WeChat. Results: A total of 240 physicians and 1200 patients from the 12 mental health centers will be enrolled in the mixed-methods outcome analysis. The primary implementation outcome is implementation reach, defined as the proportion of eligible patients with a PHQ-9 score recorded in the hospital chart at 6 months after MBC implementation. The primary clinical outcome is clinical remission, defined as a PHQ-9 score of 4 or less at the 6-month follow up. Other implementation and clinical outcomes will be examined, including medication adherence, doctor-patient alliance, and a piggy-back cost-benefit economic analysis. Qualitative interviews will be conducted with physicians and patients to produce an interpretive account of the contextual factors which impact eMBC implementation.Conclusions: The results of this hybrid implementation-effectiveness cluster RCT will inform implementation of eMBC with WeChat mobile apps for patients with depression in other clinical settings in China and internationally.
Tracing Cultural Values in Thai Students’ Dialogical Argumentation
Authors: Phongphio Tanyapon
Published: August 2021

Critical thinking and argumentation skills are crucial for developing responsible citizens and active participants in society. Indeed, reasoning and argumentation are known to be exercised differently in distinctive cultures. Historical, cultural and institutional contexts shape the way people in a society think, communicate and act. In this regard, the predominant Western assumption that reasoning should be detachable from emotion may not necessarily be accurate within the Thai cultural context. This paper highlights how different cultural assumptions were displayed in dialogical argumentation in English for fourteen, first-year undergraduates of the English Programme at a Thai university. The analysis of the argumentation data indicated that some participants presented their claims close to the end of their argumentative turns. In addition, personal experience was regularly employed as an argumentative strategy. Interestingly, there was also an absence of claims in some argumentative turns. The aforementioned findings and the themes derived from an analysis of the semi-structured interview data reflect some specific characteristics of Thai culture and values. They include indirectness and a desire for harmony, a subjectivity in argumentation and modesty.
Early Post-Acute Myocardial Infarction: Psychosocial and Financial Concerns
Authors: Bahall Mandreker
Published: August 2021

Purpose: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major cardiovascular event that has significant psycho-social-physical and lifestyle consequences. This study assessed the feelings of patients within days following an AMI in a public health institute in Trinidad and Tobago. Results: Of the 150 AMI patients, 134 (89.3%), were included in the study. Sixteen (10.7%) patients were not included due to inadequate information. Among the post-AMI patients, common negative feelings experienced include fear of another heart attack (n = 74, 55.2%), fear of death (n = 40, 29.9%), and fear of the future (n = 29, 21.6%). However, the positive thoughts of the AMI patients predominated: intentions to improve eating habits (n = 97, 73.5%), and increased spirituality (n = 82, 62.1%). Changes in feelings from pre to post AMI were most pronounced for positive feelings such as improved eating habits, regular exercise, and improved goals. In general, among the post-AMI patients, there were no significant associations between age and sex. However, significant associations were found between selected lifestyles variables (exercise, alcohol, eating habits, employment status, hypertension, and obesity) and psychological issues such as fear of another heart attack, improved relationships, or turning to God. Conclusions: Post-AMI patients experienced major psychosocial issues in the early post-AMI period. Though negative feelings were common, most of the patients resolved to make positive lifestyle changes.
Examining Entrepreneurship Characteristics and Reflective Thinking Levels of Pre -Service Teachers at Physical Education and Sports School
Authors: Adatepe Sadık , Kul Murat , Adatepe Eda
Published: August 2021

This study examines the relationship between the pre-service teachers' entrepreneurship skills and their reflective thinking levels. The sample of the study is 240 pre-service teachers studying at Bartın University Physical Education and Sports Teaching Department. Semerci (2007), “Reflective Thinking Tendency Scale” and Yılmaz & Sünbül (2009), “Entrepreneurship Scale for University Students” are used as data collection instruments. The data collected for the research were analyzed using SPSS 22.0 program. Reflective thinking levels and entrepreneurship characteristics of the pre-service teachers are examined based on gender, grade, entrepreneurship course and work experience variables. As a result, It is seen that female pre-service teachers' more reflective than male pre-service teachers and the entrepreneurship characteristics of the pre-service teachers in the study are found as "high." Moreover, in the work experience variable, there is a significant difference between the groups. A correlation analysis, it was found that there was a positive and significant relationship between entrepreneurship and all reflective thinking sub-scales, too. Based on the study's findings, it is possible to say that pre-service teachers with high entrepreneurship characteristics have high reflective thinking levels.
A taxonomy of converging assumptions: Commentary on Wiggins’ “Paradigms of personality assessment”
Authors: Galang Adrianne John R.
Published: August 2021

I provide an overview and evaluation of Wiggins' important text, focusing primarily on his treatment of what he considers to be the main systems of personality assessment (I do not cover the case study which comprises the second half of the book). In particular, I try to examine each system, which Wiggins' refers to as "paradigms" in allusion to Kuhn, based on the background assumptions of each system's proponents, and the apparent assumptions of Wiggins' himself. I end by expressing some doubts about Wiggins' scheme of engineering a possible convergence between the systems.
Dangers of including outcome at baseline as a covariate in latent change score models
Authors: Sorjonen Kimmo , Nilsonne Gustav , Melin Bo
Published: August 2021

Latent change score modelling is a version of structural equation modelling for measuring change between measurements. It seems quite common to regress change on the initial value included in the calculation of the change score (i.e. ΔY (= Y2 – Y1) is regressed on Y1). However, similarly as in simpler regression analyses, this procedure may make findings susceptible to the influence of regression to the mean. This suspicion was verified in the present simulations. An empirical application, including re-analyses of previously published data, indicated that previously claimed reciprocal promoting effects of vocabulary and matrix reasoning on each other’s longitudinal development may actually be due to regression to the mean. Researchers are recommended not to regress change on the initial value included in the calculation of the change score when employing latent change score modelling, or at least to verify findings with analyses omitting this parameter.
Broken or socially-mistuned mirror neurons in autism? An investigation via transcranial magnetic stimulation
Authors: Prinsen Jellina , Alaerts Kaat
Published: August 2021

Individuals with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience persistent difficulties during social interactions and communication. Previously, it has been suggested that deficits in the so-called ‘mirror neuron system’ (MNS), active during both action execution and observation, may underlie these social difficulties. It is still a topic of debate however whether deficiencies in the simulation of others’ actions (i.e. “broken” mirroring) forms a general feature of ASD, or whether these mostly reflect a lack of social attunement. The latter would suggest an overall intact MNS, but an impaired modulation of MNS activity according to variable social contexts. In this study, 25 adults with ASD and 28 age- and IQ-matched control participants underwent transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) during the observation of hand movements under variable conditions. Hand movements were presented via a live interaction partner, either without social context to assess basic motor mirroring, or in combination with direct and averted gaze from the acting model to assess socially modulated mirroring. Overall, no significant group differences were revealed, indicating no differential in MNS activity in ASD, compared to controls. Interestingly however, regression analyses revealed that, among ASD participants, higher social symptom severity was associated with both reduced basic motor mirroring and aberrant socially modulated mirroring (i.e. no enhancement of MNS activity upon direct vs. averted gaze). These findings further challenge the notion that MNS dysfunctions constitute a principal feature of ASD, but that variations in MNS function are related to differential expressions of (social) symptom severity.
Environmental and genetic influences on self-directed executive functioning in childhood
Authors: Barker Jane E. , Van Deusen Kaylyn , Friedman Naomi P. , Munakata Yuko
Published: August 2021

Young children often struggle to accomplish goals without instructions or reminders from adults. Less-structured activities might facilitate children’s emerging self-directed executive functioning, by giving children opportunities to choose what to do and when, and to practice setting and accomplishing goals. In one study, 6-year-old children who spent more time in less-structured activities showed better self-directed switching on a verbal fluency task; conversely, more time in adult-structured activities predicted worse switching (Barker et al., 2014). However, it is unclear from such correlational studies whether children’s activities caused differences in executive functioning, as opposed to differences in executive functioning shaping how children spent time, or a third factor driving both. The current study thus investigated relationships between children’s experiences and self-directed executive function in a genetically-informative longitudinal twin sample (N= 936; 472 female, 464 male) . Twins who lived in more structured homes and participated in more structured activities at ages 3 and 4 showed worse self-directed switching on a verbal fluency task at age 7, controlling for earlier performance and concurrent levels of environmental structure. These relationships persisted controlling for general cognitive ability, vocabulary knowledge, and socioeconomic status. Associations between early time use and self-directed switching were mediated by nonshared environmental rather than genetic factors. These findings are consistent with early structured time causally affecting later self-directed executive function.
Nudging social media sharing towards accuracy
Authors: Pennycook Gordon , Rand David Gertler
Published: August 2021

Recent work indicates that a meaningful portion of online misinformation sharing can be attributed to users merely failing to consider accuracy when deciding what to share. As a result, simply redirecting attention to the concept of accuracy can increase sharing discernment. Here we discuss the relevance of accuracy, and outline a limited-attention utility model that formalizes a theory about inattention to accuracy on social media. Research showing how a simple nudge or prompt that shifts attention to accuracy increases the quality of news that people share (typically by decreasing the sharing of false content) is reviewed. We then discuss outstanding questions relating to accuracy nudges, including the need for more work relating to persistence and habituation, as well as a dearth of cross-cultural research. We also make several recommendations for policy makers and social media companies on how to implement accuracy nudges.

Background: Sleeve gastrectomy for weight loss has increased significantly nowadays. Various complications may develop after this surgery that requires long-term follow-up of these patients. Nutrition is the most important aspect of the follow-up. The deficiency of trace elements, fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins following bariatric surgeries have been well-described complications. Although nutritional supplementations are often initiated after bariatric surgery, the clinical outcomes related to the deficiency of trace elements have not been well known yet.
Case Presentation: A 27-year-old woman who underwent a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy for surgical treatment of obesity 9 months ago presented to the emergency department with a signs of heart failure. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed dilated, poorly functioning left ventricle with reduced ejection fraction (28.9%) consistent with dilated cardiomyopathy. We assumed nutritional deficiencies secondary to sleeve gastrectomy as a cause of dilated cardiomyopathy, as the patient had inappropriate nutritional supplements after surgery. Laboratory tests revealed selenium and zinc deficiency that supported our hypothesis. Our patient completely recovered with adequate supplementation of selenium, zinc and thiamine.
Conclusion: We highlighted that the early diagnosis of dilated cardiomyopathy due to selenium deficiency following bariatric surgery is of great importance since selenium deficiency is a cause of reversible cardiomyopathy.

Summary Various techniques have been developed for the repair of femoral hernia. The technique with the Lichtenstein Plug since 1989 has allowed to obtain a lower rate of complications and recurrences, as well as an early recovery of the patients usual activities. Its application, widely spread in elective surgery, can also be performed in emergency surgery. The aim of this work is to review the experience of our basic group of work in the surgical treatment of Femoral hernia using this technique. Methods A retrospective descriptive observational study was conducted In our basic work group from the surgery service of the General Teaching Hospital “Enrique Cabrera” between 2009 and 2018, to which this surgical technique was applied. We study the anatomical variants of hernias as well as post-operative complications and clinical evolution. Results The mean age of the patients was 58.7 years (19-92 years), being the female with the highest incidence 78%, as well as, the most frequent location the right, 67.5%. The prosthesis used in the hernioplasty was that of polypropylene. Local anesthesia was applied to 29 patients (63%) of them. The average surgical time was25 minutes, (15-65 minutes). Ambulation was early and the average hospital stay was lessthan 24 hours, in most patients. Only one infectionof the wound and one hernia recurrence in one patient was confirmed. Conclusion Therefore, we believe that the Lichtenstein Plug technique should be considered among the techniques of choice in the treatment of femoral hernia

The care of acute coronary syndrome with persistent ST-elevation (STEMI) is a time-trial race: ‘‘time is myocardium”. The treatment relies on myocardial reperfusion by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or fibrinolysis as promptly as possible. The main objective of this work was to assess the care time delays and the delaying factors during STEMI. We conducted a prospective, descriptive and analytic study over a 6 months’ time period. Were included all the patients received for STEMI. We have studied the care time delays and the delaying factors. We have compiled 50 patients. The mean age was 58.4 years and the sex-ratio M/F 2.5. The chest pain was typical in 39 patients. The mean time elapsed between the beginning of the pain and the first medical contact was 12 h 16 min. Transport (76%) and self-medication (70%) were the significant delaying factors found (p = 0.0001). The mean time elapsed between the first medical contact and the electrocardiogram was 9 h 57 min. The main factors delaying the diagnosis were the unavailability of the electrocardiogram device and the absence of electrocardiogram prescription (p = 0.001). The mean time elapsed between the electrocardiogram and the admission in the cardiology department was 3 h 02 min. The transport was the principal factor lengthening that time delay (p = 0.0001). Among the patients admitted directly in cardiology department, the mean time delay to perform the ECG was 30 min. The mean time delay of fibrinolysis was 2 h 11 min. Streptokinase shortage was the most frequent delaying factor (p = 0.001). The mean time delay between the qualifying ECG and the PCI completion was 2 h 42 min. The unavailability of the medical team was the first factor lengthening that time delay (p = 0.0001). The care time delays were lengthened enough in our context. This testifies to the lack of a codified strategy for STEMI care. It is essential to develop pre-hospital emergency medicine and sensitize the population and healthcare professionals.
Surgical palliation for an infant with hypoplastic left heart syndrome and congenital lobar emphysema: a case report
Authors: T. Pham Serena , Sahulee Raj
Published: August 2021

Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a form of congenital heart disease that is associated with significant lifelong morbidity and mortality. Although rarely reported together, the prognosis for patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome and congenital anomalies of the airway or lung, such as congenital diaphragmatic hernia, has been shown to be very poor. The outcomes for patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome and congenital lobar emphysema specifically is currently unknown. Reported herein is the first case of a child with a rare combination of hypoplastic left heart syndrome and congenital lobar emphysema, and a discussion of his presentation, diagnosis, management and outcome to date.
“Counterterrorism Citizens” and the Neurotic City
Authors: Batley Amy
Published: August 2021

An array of methods are used in European cities to respond to terrorism, with counterterrorism infrastructures in the built environment receiving particular academic interest. Yet the significance of imaginations of city spaces are often overlooked in studies of counterterrorism planning. Counterterrorism workshops influence imaginations of urban spaces by encouraging participants to adopt an anticipatory security gaze. This article explores the spatial approach of workshops, which require participants to interpret cities as a series of spaces and locations that could be terror targets. This article proposes that encouraging imaginations of danger in urban spaces can evoke fear, itself an aim of terrorism, or even neurosis, which becomes spatially attached to urban spaces as a means of urban counterterrorism governance.
Telling Tales?

The ethnographic representation of violence is a controversial issue, involving debates about (avoiding) sensationalism or (acknowledging) emotionality, for example. Less considered is how the subjective nature of ethnography and the fact that ethnographic narratives are always situated can have ramifications for both interpreting and representing violence, particularly in the context of longitudinal ethnographic research. Drawing on my investigations into Nicaraguan gang dynamics begun in 1996, this article explores the subjectivity of the longitudinal ethnographic experience of violence both in and out of “the field” through three specific examples. These highlight in different ways how ethnographic understanding is highly situational and time-bound, meaning that longitudinal research is particularly prone to episodes of discomfiting conceptual disjuncture. At the same time, it is precisely this that arguably imbues it with exceptional power and insight.
The Azanian Philosophical Tradition Today
Authors: Dladla Ndumiso
Published: August 2021

Even though the Pan Africanist Congress was formed in 1959 after departing from the African National Congress at a point marking out the irreconcilability of the Azanian ‘faith’ with the other interpretations of the struggle within the ‘broad church’ of the Congress Movement, it was only six years later, in 1965, that it modified its name to the PAC of Azania. The name Azania is supposed to have been suggested by Nkrumah at the All-African Peoples’ Conference in 1958 attended by the Africanists even before the inauguration of the PAC (Diaz 2009: 239; Hilton 1993: 5). The Azanian tendency in ‘South African’ history can arguably be said to have existed from the earliest times of resistance by the indigenous people against the unjust wars of colonisation (see Dladla 2020: 71–108).

Productivity is an indicator for a countryâ€™s competitiveness. This paper analyzes the comparison competitivenesss of Indonesian workers relative to its competitiveness in several ASEAN countries. At the end of this paper, is expected to provide some policy recommendations that should be carried out by Indonesian Government to encourage an increasing of their labour competitiveness in ASEAN. This paper uses comparative analysis techniques. The secondary data was collected from the APO, ILO, UNDP, BPS.The result is, Brunai has the highest level of labour productivity even though it is decreasing. ASEAN has a trend of increasing the labour productivity during 1970-2016 period. Labour productivity in ASEAN tends to increase by almost 4 times from USD 6,2 thousand per worker in 1970 to USD 23,4 thousand per worker in 2016. During the 1970-2016, the labour productivity growth of ASEAN has continued to decline. During the 1970-2016, the labour productivity per hour in ASEAN increased from 2,8 percent in 1970 to 10,9 percent in 2016. The highest labour productivity growth per hour in ASEAN was achieved by Malaysia in 1990-1995 amounted to 6,5 percent, in contrast, the lowest of labour productivity per hour in ASEAN was achieved by Brunei Darussalam at 0,3 percent.
