MENGGUGAT KEBHINEKAAN: RESPON INTELEKTUAL MUDA PROGRAM PASCASARJANA UNIVERSITAS ISLAM NEGERI RADEN FATAH PALEMBANG TERHADAP KEPEMIMPINAN NON MUSLIM
Authors: Izomidin Izomidin
Published: July 2018

Abstract
In the Islamic intellectual tradition, there are three issues that are always discussed regarding political leadership within the state. First, the question of less worthy leaders (imāmatul mafūl). Secondly, the question of the immoral leader (imāmatul fāsiq). And third, the question of non-Muslim leaders (imāmatul kāfir). This dynamic becomes urgent to be studied, especially in the domain of non-Muslim leaders (imāmatul kāfir). The growing questions are: (1) What is the young intellectual response of UIN Raden Fatah Graduate for non-Muslim leadership?; (2) How does the strategic move to strengthen diversity by minimizing the non-Muslim leadership debate of young intellectual perspectives of Graduate UIN Raden Fatah Palembang ?. Both of them are effective, especially the contribution to build diversity that gives togetherness and peace in Indonesia. Being a subject of further study is mainly strengthening the concept of pluralist leadership.

Abstrak
Dalam tradisi intelektual Islam, ada tiga persoalan yang selalu dibicarakan terkait kepemimpinan politik dalam negara. Pertama, soal pemimpin yang kurang layak (imāmatul mafḍūl).

Antifungal Activities and Characterization of Some New Environmentally Safe Cu (II) Surfactants Substituted 2-Amino-6-Methyl Benzothiazole
Authors: Sharma Arun Kumar , Sharma Rashmi , Gangwal Antima
Published: July 2018

Background:

Biologically potent compounds are one of the most important classes of materials for the upcoming generations.

Objectives:

Increasing number of microbial infectious diseases and resistant pathogens create a demand and urgency to develop novel, potent, safe and improved variety of antimicrobial agents.

Methods:

The copper surfactants substituted 2-amino-6-methyl benzothiazole were synthesized. The synthesized complexes have been characterized by IR, NMR, ESR spectroscopic methods. The antifungal activities have been evaluated by testing againstAlternaria alternatefungi. All complexes showed good antifungal activity because chelation increases the anti-microbial potency.

Result:

The studies suggest that the copper (II) ions in soaps may be responsible for the enhancement of the activity against fungi. The evaluation of anti -fungal studies further revealed that fungitoxicity of the complexes also depends on the nature of metal ions. The chelation reduces the polarity of central metal ion mainly because of partial attaining of its positive charge with the donor groups and possible π- electron delocalization over the whole chelate ring. Such chelation increases the lipophilic character of the central atom, which subsequently favors its permeation through the lipoid layer of the cell membrane. Their efficiency increases with their concentration.

Published: July 2018

Menopause is a universal phenomenon and an unavoidable physiological transition process in a women’s life, which marks the end of women’s reproductive capacity. It is caused by the depletion of ovarian function followed by the cessation of menstruation. In Ayurveda literature, the term Rajonivṛtti (menopause) is used for menopause and it considered as a sign of aging or Jarā. As a result of change in hormones after menopause certain psychological and biological changes affect women’s health and degrade her quality of life. Ācāryā Vāgbhaṭa had mentioned that in Kaphaprakṛti (body type) individual, and women who are having a habit of taking ghee (Vātapitta Prasamana - pacify Vata Pitta humors) and milk ( Jeevaniya), and who are having a pleasant mind in those subjects the Ārtava (menstruation) retains long . The aim of the study was to assess the menopausal symptoms that is mentioned in the menopausal rating scale (MRS) in relation to Prakruti of an individual. For that a survey study is conducted in 250 menopausal women in Sakthikulangara village (Kollam district) who satisfy the inclusion and exclusion criteria. It was observed that out of the 11 menopausal symptoms 9 symptoms shows statistically significant association with Vātapittaprakṛti.

Published: July 2018

In the process of evolution from quadrupeds to bipeds, the forelimbs developed into upper limbs. In quadrupeds they serve the purpose of weight bearing and attack. In bipeds they serve fine functions, holding an object, attack and defense. It has been estimated by research group that the hand performs approximately thousand different functions in an ordinary day today’s activity. Apabahuka is one such disease which hampers most of the foresaid functions of the hand. Although any of the classics do not mention about the Shoola as a Laxana of Apabahuka, it still is a feature practically seen in Avabahuka patients. Chikitsa Sara Sangraha and Nidana Sara, clearly mentions about Svedana as a predominant Laxana of Avabahuka, along with other Laxana. It is often said that ‘the pain is often severe enough to disturb the sleep’. Amsa Marma is primarily involved in Avabahuka, it is a Snayu Marma and one of Vaikalyakara Marma, any trauma to this will produce disability or deformity of the shoulder joint. Management of pain is facilitated by Marma Chikitsa i.e. Nidana Parivarjana, Abhyanga, Swedana, Uttarabhaktika Snehapana, Vata Hara Oushadha Sevana, Marmabhighata Chikitsa, Brumhana, Nasya, Lepa, Seka, Nasya, Nasaapaana, Agnikarma, Siravyadha, etc.

Biceps brachii is a flexor of elbow joint and also a powerful supinator of the forearm present in the anterior compartment of arm and usually it originates from two head as its name indicating one is long head of biceps originating from supraglenoid tubercle of scapula and another one is short head which is originating from coracoids process of scapula. During routine dissection for Ayurvedic undergraduates, In the department of Shareera Rachana (Anatomy) in SDM Trust’s Ayurvedic Medical College, Terdal, Tq. Jamakhandi, Dist. Bagalkot, we found that third head of biceps brachii was originating from medial side of shaft of humerus which is just below the insertion of coracobrachialis along with the intramuscular septa and inserting into the radial tuberosity along with long and short head of biceps. Such variations are important for clinicians and surgeons for diagnostic and surgical procedures of the upper limb.

Skin being the largest organ of the body is the reason behind the beauty and the cause for confidence. WHO has classified skin diseases a Psycho-cutaneous disease. This emphasizes on the relation between skin and psyche. Hence skin ailments are given high priority by any victim. 10 - 15% of the OPD patients for any practitioner will comprise of cosmetology related patients. Skin diseases are commonly observed due to altered lifestyle; lack of physical exercise, poor hygiene, mental stress and improper food habits. All the skin disorders in Ayurveda have been discussed under the broad heading of Kushta. Kushta is being further divided into Maha Kushta and Kshudra Kushta. Kitibha Kushta is one of the Kshudra Kushta, disorder which is commonly encountered in today’s clinical practice. Here, Tridoshas, Rasa, Rakta and Mamsa Dhatu are affected. Kitibha Kushta is a disease mainly affecting the beauty of the subject, thus its management would be challenging task.

Evaluation and Implementation of ListeningTime: A Web-Based Preparatory Communication Tool for Elderly Patients With Cancer and Their Health Care Providers (Preprint)
Authors: Noordman Janneke , Driesenaar Jeanine A , van Bruinessen Inge R. , Portielje Johanneke E.A. , van Dulmen Sandra
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

Effective patient-provider communication is an important condition to deliver optimal care and it supports patients in coping with their disease. The complex and emotionally loaded setting of oncology care challenges both health care providers (HCPs) and patients in reaching effective communication. ListeningTime is developed for elderly patients with cancer and their oncological HCPs to help them (better) prepare the clinical encounter and overcome communication barriers. ListeningTime is a Web-based preparatory communication tool including modeling videos and has an audio-facility to listen back to recorded encounters.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to evaluate the usability, perceived usefulness, and actual use of ListeningTime, through the eyes of elderly patients with cancer and their oncological HCPs. If highly rated, the ultimate goal is to make ListeningTime publicly available.

METHODS

First, members of a panel of elderly cancer survivors and patients (age ≥65 years) were approached to evaluate ListeningTime through a Web-based questionnaire. The usability and perceived usefulness were assessed. Second, ListeningTime was evaluated in real-life practice through a pilot study in 3 Dutch hospitals. In these hospitals, elderly patients with cancer and their oncological HCPs were approached to evaluate ListeningTime through a similar Web-based questionnaire, measuring the perceived usefulness. In addition, we examined log files and user statistics to get insight into how the program was used.

RESULTS

A total of 30 cancer survivors or patients from the patient panel, and 17 patients and 8 HCPs from the hospitals, evaluated ListeningTime. Overall, both panel members and hospital patients were positive about the ListeningTime website, audio-facility, and video fragments. Some patients suggested improvements with respect to the actors’ performances in the video fragments and believed that ListeningTime is mainly suitable for non experienced patients. HCPs were also positive about ListeningTime; they valued the video fragments for patients and the audio-facility for patients and themselves. However, providers did not relisten their own recorded encounters. Patients did use the audio-facility to relisten their encounters.

CONCLUSIONS

ListeningTime was highly rated, both by patients and their oncological HCPs. As a result, the video fragments of ListeningTime are now made publicly available for elderly patients with cancer through the Dutch website “kanker.nl.”
Using the Facebook Advertisement Platform to Recruit Chinese, Korean, and Latinx Cancer Survivors for Psychosocial Research: Web-Based Survey Study (Preprint)
Authors: Tsai William , Zavala Daisy , Gomez Sol
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

Ethnic minority cancer survivors remain an understudied and underrepresented population in cancer research, in part, due to the challenge of low participant recruitment rates. Therefore, identifying effective recruitment strategies is imperative for reducing cancer health disparities among this population. With the widespread use of social media, health researchers have turned to Facebook as a potential source of recruitment.

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of purchasing ads on Facebook to recruit Chinese, Korean, and Latinx cancer survivors residing in the United States. We assessed their experience with participating in a Web-based survey and their interest for future research.

METHODS

We showed 5 purchased ads in English, simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese, Korean, and Spanish on Facebook. Participants who clicked on the Facebook ad were directed to the study website and asked to submit their emails to receive the link to the 30-minute Web-based survey. Inclusion criteria included being of Asian or Latinx heritage, age ≥18 years, having a cancer diagnosis, and being within 5 years of cancer treatment. Participants who completed the survey were sent a US $10 Walmart eGiftcard.

RESULTS

The Facebook ads were shown for 48 consecutive days for a total spending of US $1200.46 (US $25/day budget). Overall, 11 East Asian and 15 Latinx cancer survivors completed the study, resulting in an average cost per participant of US $46.17. The East Asian and Latinx cancer survivors did not significantly differ in age, years lived in the United States, education level, generation status, and time since diagnosis. However, Latinx cancer survivors were marginally more likely to have limited English proficiency and lower annual income than East Asian cancer survivors. Both Latinx and East Asian cancer survivors reported that they enjoyed participating in this study and indicated an interest in participating in future psychosocial research studies.

CONCLUSIONS

The use of Facebook ads successfully resulted in the recruitment of East Asian and Latinx cancer survivors with different cancer diagnoses who reside in various geographic regions of the United States. We found that East Asian and Latinx cancer survivors recruited through Facebook were interested in participating in future psychosocial research, thereby providing support for the feasibility and effectiveness of using Facebook as a source of recruitment for ethnic minority cancer survivors.
A INTEGRALIDADE NOS CENTROS DE ESPECIALIDADES ODONTOLÓGICAS.
Authors: Spezzia Sérgio
Published: July 2018

O Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) é o responsável pelos atendimentos de saúde públicos realizados à população. O funcionamento do SUS fundamenta-se em diretrizes organizativas: Universalidade, Integralidade e Equidade e em princípios doutrinários: Descentralização, Regionalização, Hierarquização, Participação Comunitária e Integração. O atendimento assistencial em âmbito odontológico ocorre a nível de atenção primária, secundária e terciária. Na atenção secundária ou de média complexidade os Centros de Especialidades Odontológicas, detém papel de destaque no contexto da integralidade. A integralidade é considerada por muitos como diretriz, princípio, objetivo, política, estratégia, ideal, bandeira de luta ou como ação social de interação democrática entre sujeitos no que tange ao cuidado em qualquer nível dos serviços de saúde. Sob o ponto de vista do SUS, a integralidade em saúde tem como parte inerente, essencialmente, a assistência odontológica, já que toda a população basicamente tem histórico de estar acometida ou de ter estado acometida por algum tipo de doença bucal. O CEO visa propiciar a integralidade nos atendimentos prestados à população. O objetivo deste artigo foi averiguar como procede a prática da integralidade nos CEO. Atualmente ainda, a integralidade tem pouca visibilidade nas práticas de saúde. Existe avanços, no entanto, que ainda não alcançaram o patamar desejado. Concluiu-se que a prática da integralidade nos CEO tende a aprimorar os atendimentos, permitindo racionalização dos recursos, evitando maiores gastos na atenção em saúde.

O objetivo do presente estudo foi revisar a literatura para avaliar a doença periodontal como fator de risco para a pneumonia nosocomial. A metodologia usada resultou numa busca as bases de dados Medline, PubMed, Lilacs, SciELO e Portal Capes, através dos artigos publicados entre o período de janeiro de 2000 a janeiro de 2017. A pneumonia nosocomial é uma infecção do parênquima pulmonar que se desenvolve nas 48-72 horas após a internação hospitalar, e que não está presente ou incubada no paciente no momento da sua admissão no hospital, representando um dos principais problemas de controle de infecção hospitalar atualmente devido à sua elevada incidência, altas taxas de mortalidade e altos custos. A colonização do biofilme dental e a doença periodontal podem ter um importante papel como reservatório de microrganismos causadores dessa infecção, uma vez que a pneumonia nosocomial resulta da aspiração da flora da cavidade oral e orofaringe para o trato respiratório inferior. A conclusão desta revisão é que a literatura estudada mostra uma relação da doença periodontal no estabelecimento da pneumonia nosocomial. Porém, são necessários mais estudos clínicos controlados randomizados para a confirmação desta associação.ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to review the literature to evaluate periodontal disease as a risk factor for nosocomial pneumonia. The methodology used resulted in a search of the databases Medline, PubMed, Lilacs, SciELO and Portal Capes, through the works published between January 2000 and January 2017. Nosocomial pneumonia is a pulmonary parenchymal infection that develops within 48-72 hours after hospitalization and is not present or incubated in the patient at the time of admission to the hospital, representing one of the main problems of hospital infection control currently due their high incidence, high mortality rates and high costs. Colonization of the dental biofilm and periodontal disease may play an important role as a reservoir of microorganisms that cause this infection, since nosocomial pneumonia results from aspiration of the flora from the oral cavity and oropharynx to the lower respiratory tract . The conclusion of this review is that the literature studied shows a relationship of periodontal disease in the establishment of nosocomial pneumonia. However, further randomized controlled clinical trials are required to confirm this association.KEYWORDS: Periodontal Disease, Risk Factor, Oral Biofilm, Nosocomial Pneumonia, Intensive Care Units.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Doença Periodontal, Fator de Risco, Biofilme Dental, Unidade de Terapia Intensiva.
Optimization of dye adsorption process for Albizia lebbeck pods as a biomass using central composite rotatable design model
Authors: Hadi Sabah , Al-Mashhadani Mahmood , Eisa Mohammed
Published: July 2018

Albizia lebbeck biomass was used as an adsorbent material in the present study to remove methyl red dye from an aqueous solution. A central composite rotatable design model was used to predict the dye removal efficiency. The optimization was accomplished under a temperature and mixing control system (37?C) with different particle size of 300 and 600 ?m. Highest adsorption efficiencies were obtained at lower dye concentrations and lower weight of adsorbent. The adsorption time, more than 48 h, was found to have a negative effect on the removal efficiency due to secondary metabolites compounds. However, the adsorption time was found to have a positive effect at high dye concentrations and high adsorbent weight. The colour removal efficiency was found to increase with the increase in methyl red concentration and decrease the adsorption time at constant adsorbent weight.

Authors: Novkovic Djordje , Burazer Jela , Cocic Aleksandar , Lecic Milan
Published: July 2018

This paper presents research regarding the influence of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) level on accuracy of Reynolds averaged Navier?Stokes (RANS) based turbulence models. A theoretical analysis of influence TKE level on accuracy of the RANS turbulence models has been performed according to the Boussinesq hypothesis definition. After that, this theoretical analysis has been investigated by comparison of numerically and experimentally obtained results on the test case of a steady-state incompressible swirl-free flow in a straight conical diffuser named Azad diffuser. Numerical calculations have been performed using the OpenFOAM CFD software and first and secondorder closure turbulence models. TKE level, velocity profiles and Reynolds stresses have been calculated downstream in four different cross sections of the diffuser. Certain conclusions about modeling turbulent flows by ?? ??? and LRR turbulence models have been made by comparing the velocity profiles, TKE distribution and Reynolds stresses on the selected cross sections.

AUTOMATED ADAPTIVE MONITORING OF INTEGRATED SECURITY OF INFORMATION SYSTEMS "SMART CITY": TARGET FUNCTIONS OF THE CONCEPTUAL MODEL
Authors: Kotenko Igor Vitalievich , Parashchuk Igor Borisovich
Published: July 2018

The object of study is adaptive monitoring for solving problems of counteraction to complex security threats to "Smart City. The studies were carried out within the framework of developing the conceptual model of adaptive monitoring. The model is a generalized description of the system of views, ideas and principles that determine the general methodology of adaptive monitoring of systems of this class. Using the target functions of the conceptual model of adaptive monitoring there have been formally described the following steps: what parameters (quality indicators) of complex security, how (according to what criteria and based on what methods) and when to watch, evaluate and predict at different stages of the life cycle of the "Smart City" and in different conditions. The review of possible ways and methods of adaptation of monitoring modes in conditions of constructive and destructive influences is made. The problems of mathematical formulation of specific and generalized target functions in the interests of formal description of the problem of adaptive monitoring of complex security of big Cyber Physical Social Systems such as "Smart City" are considered. Adaptation levels are determined; groups of optimized parameters are described. Particular attention is paid to the parameters in the procedures for watching, evaluating and predicting complex security. The application of the proposed elements of the conceptual model will improve the effectiveness of system monitoring of complex security of the "Smart City" by increasing the break-even, reliability and accuracy of the estimates and forecasts of the state (quality) of complex security, by reducing the cost of resources allocated for security control. This will allow to increase the degree of validity of decisions, reduce the cost of financial, time and other management resources in the design, development and operation of systems to counter the threats of "Smart City".
Sifting through transition
Authors: Salet Willem
Published: July 2018

Planning research frequently deals with issues of transition. Transition is defined here broadly as the change of social and spatial state from the one position into another. In planning theory and urban studies, there are many attempts to conceptualise such processes of change (material theories, evolutionary approaches, pragmatic perspectives, and so on). This paper traces some classic sources of functional anthropology and cultural sociology, focusing particularly on the meaning of the ‘rite of passage’. This line of reasoning contemplates transition as a pattern of cultural change of social order, and deals both with the structural and the process oriented aspects of transition. The paper builds upon the pivotal work of the French anthropologist Arnold van Gennep and the further explorations of Victor Turner as well as present-day interpretations.

Published: July 2018

Aim

The aim of our study is to show the importance of multislice computed tomography (CT) assessment in the overall management and diagnostic framework of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI) procedure candidates.

Methods

Between June 2015 and April 2017, 200 patients with severe aortic stenosis, not eligible for surgery, were enrolled, as defined by EuroSCORE; they were submitted to TAVI at the interventional cardiology department of the Tor Vergata Polyclinic. CT studies were performed using a 64-slice scanner.

Results

The reports and datasets produced during the pre-TAVI CT evaluation were retrospectively evaluated.

Discussion

In TAVI candidates, accurate aortic valve shape and dimensions evaluation is crucial for the proper deployment of the prosthetic valve and in order to reduce postprocedural complications. ECG retrospective gated cardiac CT gives the clinician three-dimensional images of the heart, with high spatial resolution and multiplanar reconstructions allowing accurate visualization of the aortic annulus and coronary ostia to be obtained, and the evaluation of arterial calcifications. Furthermore, CT can provide data on the suitability of peripheral vascular accesses. Moreover, this technique can point out the presence of clinically relevant extracardiac findings. Therefore, CT evaluation assures a safe, reliable and prognostically relevant method for TAVI preprocedural planning.

Conclusion

Our study remarks the importance of CT assessment in the overall management and diagnostic framework of TAVI candidates; the information provided is essential in order to minimize possible complications and to improve the quality of the therapeutic planning.
Quality of Rural Life. Editorial 16 June 2018
Authors: Vaishar Antonín , Vidovićová Lucie , Figueiredo Elisabete
Published: July 2018

The paper discusses the concept of the quality of life and its measuring. It tries to explain its peculiarities in the rural space considering different levels of education, professional activities, mobility, ways of dwelling, access to the social and technical infrastructure. The subjective perception of both urban and rural people to the rural quality of life can be manifested in moving in and moving out. The main shortages of the rural quality of life can be seen (by rural people) in a poor access to the prestigious and well-paid jobs and to a richer social life. The main advantages of the rural way of life are generally evaluated (by urban people) by better access to the nature. A promotion of the local identity is considered as an important tool for improving the rural quality of life (besides of a solution of infrastructural problems), considering the enormous difference among European rural areas of a big differentiation of the European countryside. The last part of the paper summarizes the contributions of the special number.
Rural Poverty and its Consequences in Structurally Weak Rural Areas of Austria from the Mayors’ Perspective
Authors: Fischer Tatjana , Born Karl Martin
Published: July 2018

Poverty, material deprivation and marginalization are widespread phenomena in rural areas and since the 1980s, the subject of geographical research. In this paper, we combine the (spatial-related) aspects of rural poverty and quality of life when the perception and evaluation of poverty by local decision makers (mayors) is linked to their efforts to keep the municipality vital. The specific focus on the “inner view” on poverty illustrates the complexity of the issue: It is not only the well-known difficulty to identify the extent of rural poverty and deprivation in rural municipalities as statistical data and the “hiddenness” of poor people obstruct an objective view on it but also the individual perception of decision makers. The results from 40 mayors of structurally very weak (rural) municipalities in Austria reveals limitations of political dealings with poverty and marginalization and sets the context for a reinterpretation of public services on the background of the politically much favored civic engagement.

Role of Cnot6l in maternal mRNA turnover

Published: July 2018

Removal of poly(A) tail is an important mechanism controlling eukaryotic mRNA turnover. The major eukaryotic deadenylase complex CCR4-NOT contains two deadenylase components, CCR4 and CAF1, for which mammalian CCR4 is encoded by Cnot6 or Cnot6l paralogs. We show that Cnot6l apparently supplies the majority of CCR4 in the maternal CCR4-NOT in mouse, hamster, and bovine oocytes. Deletion of Cnot6l yielded viable mice, but Cnot6l−/− females exhibited ∼40% smaller litter size. The main onset of the phenotype was post-zygotic: fertilized Cnot6l−/− eggs developed slower and arrested more frequently than Cnot6l+/− eggs, suggesting that maternal CNOT6L is necessary for accurate oocyte-to-embryo transition. Transcriptome analysis revealed major transcriptome changes in Cnot6l−/− ovulated eggs and one-cell zygotes. In contrast, minimal transcriptome changes in preovulatory Cnot6l−/− oocytes were consistent with reported Cnot6l mRNA dormancy. A minimal overlap between transcripts sensitive to decapping inhibition and Cnot6l loss suggests that decapping and CNOT6L-mediated deadenylation selectively target distinct subsets of mRNAs during oocyte-to-embryo transition in mouse.

El presente escrito pretende dar cuenta de una problemática social que aún no ha sido asumida como política de Estado; las críticas condiciones en que las mujeres suelen asumir los compromisos económicos de la manutención de sus hijos, especialmente en los casos de inasistencia alimentaria por desempleo del padre o por las pequeñas cuotas que fijan los funcionarios. Ello revela los compromisos pendientes de cumplir por las entidades y la visión reducida de los criterios literales como se suele asumir esta problemática.
Crítica a la jurisprudencia reciente de la Sección Tercera del Consejo de Estado en materia de servicios públicos
Authors: Torres Calderón Leonardo Augusto
Published: July 2018

Con ocasión de la modificación introducida al artículo 82 del Código ContenciosoAdministrativo, la Sección Tercera de Consejo de Estado expidió dos providenciasen las cuales, para definir las controversias que son de competencia de la jurisdicción de lo contencioso administrativo dio plena aplicación al criterio orgánico sobre el material. Es decir, para determinar si una controversia es de competencia de la jurisdicción de lo contencioso administrativo ya no es necesario establecer si la entidad ejerce o no una función administrativa sino únicamente determinar si en el litigio hace parte una entidad pública. Esas dos providencias se presentan con la respectiva crítica y argumentaciones.
La educación superior: entre derecho y mercancía
Authors: Díaz Gamboa Luis Bernardo
Published: July 2018

El artículo pretende señalar cómo las imposiciones del denominado “pensamiento único” de carácter neoliberal, han afectado las esencias mismas del derecho a la educación de la población, incluyendo el acceso, la calidad, la sostenibilidad y la pertinencia. Al haberse impuesto el criterio de dejar a la mano invisible del mercado el libre juego de la oferta y la demanda en materia educativa, se afectan profundamente las bases humanistas de la educación como derecho fundamental de los seres humanos. Convertira la universidad en empresa rentable, además de ser un despropósito, es la alteración de un sistema de valores de la modernidad que concebía la educación como un nicho intocable por parte de los poderes financieros. Al imponersela lógica de financiación capitalista, las grandes compañías multinacionales terminarán organizando sus propias universidades para reclutar su personal, el cual servirá de manera incondicional a sus particulares intereses, no a los intereses de la sociedad, ni mucho menos al bien común.

Published: July 2018

Colombia, a partir del año 1991, consagró un nuevo concepto de Estado, cuya filosofía es la esencia humana. En ese sentido, conceptos como dignidad humana y justicia se constituyen en pilares fundamentales, cuyo reconocimientoy efectiva materialización garantiza la existencia de este tipo de Estado. En armonía con esto, el presente trabajo tiene como fin dar a conocer el distanciamiento que se evidencia entre la praxis de la institucionalidad y lo plasmado en la Carta de 1991, frente al deber de respetar, observar y garantizar derechos de los ciudadanos, lo cual se afirma en atención al análisis realizado a la postura política denominada Ruptura con el Sistema Judicial apropiada por la Comunidad de Paz de San José de Apartadó en el año 2003,como respuesta de resistencia ante la sistemática vulneración de sus derechos, propuesta que consideramos encuentra respaldo en la Constitución y el derecho internacional de los derechos humanos, con base en los postulados teleológicosque persigue esta clase de Estados.
El multilateralismo en América: estrategia del dominó en la Guerra Fría
Authors: Gonzalez Cepeda Liborio
Published: July 2018

La consolidación de procesos de unidad para la coopera- ción entre Estados con la creación de instituciones como la oea y el tiar en América, fue un esfuerzo que encon- tró en el discurso de la Guerra Fría y en sus desarrollos un factor dinamizador e impulsor; se podría decir que fue el elemento que llevó a que propuestas de esa naturaleza, que se venían promoviendo con anterioridad, encontraran la excusa perfecta para su concreción. El miedo al comu- nismo, acentuado con la culpabilidad que se les atribuyó a los comunistas soviéticos por el asesinato en Bogotá del líder liberal y candidato presidencial Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, fue el combustible que le dio vida inmediata a estas insti- tuciones multilaterales. The consolidation of process unit for cooperation and as- sistance between States with the creation of institutions such as the oas and the Rio Treaty in America, was a pro- cess that found in the discourse of the Cold War and its developments, a stimulus and driving force thereof; you could say that was the element that led to proposals of this nature that were being promoted previously found the perfect excuse for their implementation; the fear of communism was accented with the guilt that was given to the Soviet Communists about the murder in Bogota of liberal leader and presidential candidate Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, this party was the fuel that gave immediate life to these multilateral institutions.
Rescatar la educación ambiental para construir ecociudadanías: escenarios del contexto costarricense en la educación pública en secundaria
Authors: Cárdenas Gutiérrez Randall
Published: July 2018

La crisis ecológica, enmarcada en la crisis del orden civilizatorio, es una muestra de la ausencia en el debate ético de la defensa de las diversas formas de vida humana y no humana, propia de un sistema económico que maximiza las utilidades que extrae de la naturaleza mientras desvía la atención de temas como la conservación, la conciencia ecológica y la educación ambiental. Ante esto, el presente artículo tiene como propósito reflexionar sobre la necesidad y la importancia de rescatar la educación ambiental, particularmente en Costa Rica, atendiendo a la necesaria promoción de políticas educativas en la búsqueda de la construcción de ecociudadanías, que hasta ahora han estado limitadas a los discursos derivados de la economía verde.
