Authors: García Castro Cristina
Published: November 2023

Al echar un vistazo a la historia del actual territorio que hoy conocemos como El Salvador, se pueden estudiar diversas aristas que han forjado la sociedad salvadoreña de hoy en día. Una de estas es la referente al plano económico, elemento que ha moldeado otros aspectos, como el social y cultural. Una de las obras recientemente publicadas sobre la historia salvadoreña, que brinda importantes aportes en torno a la economía de este territorio, es la titulada El Salvado índigo: el oro azul que forjó nuestra identidad. (Erquicia, 2021).1 El libro es autoría del académico José Heriberto Erquicia Cruz, quien a través de una introducción y cuatro capítulos ofrece una rica e interesante mirada sobre la historia del cultivo del añil, su importancia, auge e implicaciones en el desarrollo económico local y regional en la época colonial. El libro permite conocer más sobre este cultivo que fue, tal como lo recalca el título, uno de los elementos principales que “forjó la identidad salvadoreña”.

Authors: Bayate Trecia Lynn , Delos Reyes Jessa , Payao Sofel Joy , Gildore Phyll Jhann
Published: November 2023

Teacher identity is discursively represented in the discursive spaces of the news media, which influence the public opinion on teachers and the teaching profession in general. Informed by Systemic Functional Linguistics, specifically Halliday's transitivity analysis, this study analyzed these discursive representations in 30 news media articles from three of the largest news media outlets in the Philippines. It was found that teachers are ascribed to material, mental, verbal, relational, and behavioral processes. As participants in the process types, it was revealed that the teachers were discursively represented as perpetrators, victims, and role models. This reveals the discursive representations of teacher identity in media that are perpetuated in the public discourse consumed by educational stakeholders.

Published: November 2023

A eficácia clínica do tratamento de câncer de mama ipsilateral multifocal (MF) e multicêntrico (MC) usando terapia conservadora da mama (TCM) em comparação com o padrão de mastectomia ainda é incerta. As controvérsias referem-se à recorrência locorregional e a sobrevida livre de doença. Esta revisão compara os resultados clínicos após TCM versus mastectomia para cânceres MF e MC, definidos coletivamente como múltiplos cânceres de mama ipsilaterais. Para isso, pesquisas eletrônicas abrangentes foram realizadas para identificar artigos completos publicados em inglês entre outubro de 2002 a junho de 2023, comparando principalmente os resultados clínicos da TCM e da mastectomia para cânceres de mama múltiplos ipsilaterais síncronos. Todos os tipos de estudo foram incluídos e os estudos selecionados foram avaliados criticamente, seguindo o protocolo PRISMA para métodos de revisão e relatórios. Os estudos analisados apresentavam qualidade moderada, e históricos com acompanhamento limitado e seleção de casos, favorecendo a TCM em vez da mastectomia para pacientes de baixo risco. A cirurgia conservadora da mama apresenta-se como uma opção viável e segura para pacientes com câncer de mama múltiplo ipsilateral com características selecionadas dos tumores.
Acessibilidade de pessoas com deficiência no transporte público intramunicipal de Nova Iguaçu: um estudo sobre os principais marcos legais e normativos
Authors: De Souza Filho Vanderlan Lopes , Abreu Luciano Muniz , De Schueler Adriana Soares
Published: November 2023

O presente artigo se propõe a apresentar e discutir os principais marcos legais e normativos produzidos nas três esferas governamentais a respeito da mobilidade e acessibilidade no transporte público intramunicipal para pessoas com deficiência (PCD) no município de Nova Iguaçu/RJ. Faz um comparativo dos marcos legais com a opinião dos usuários PCD do serviço no município. A matedologia foi baseada na revisão da literatura sobre a temática da acessibilidade e mobilidade urbanas, análise documental e levantamento de dados e opinões dos usuários por meio da aplicação de questionários. Os achados apontam que, apesar de haver uma preocupação por parte do poder público em desenvolver políticas públicas de mobilidade e acessibilidade urbanas para esse segmento da população, a concretização dessas políticas ainda não foi amplamente efetuada ou percebida pelos usuários do serviço no município. As PCD que dependem do transporte público intramunicipal se deparam com uma série de barreiras físicas e atitudinais que impedem sua acessibilidade e mobilidade de modo pleno e autônomo, tendo seu direito à cidade cerceado, sobretudo a parcela dos cidadãos que habitam as regiões mais distantes da área central que se deparam também com a escassez de serviços e equipamentos públicos básicos necessários para uma vida digna.
Aurelio Macedonio Espinosa's “Great(er) Spain”: The Snares ofQuerenciaand the Pitfalls of Cultural Nationalism and FundamentalistHispanismo
Authors: Lamadrid Enrique R.
Published: November 2023

Aurelio Macedonio Espinosa (1880–1958) studied Hispanic folklore in the American Southwest, Spain, and Spanish America. His research foregrounds Spanish language, verbal arts, and culture of the people of greater New Mexico (New Mexico and southern Colorado). Three decades into an energetic career of fieldwork, research, and teaching, Espinosa allied himself with Spanish Nationalism, largely motivated by his religious beliefs. His foundational work in linguistics and dialectology endures, but his contributions to US folklore studies have been largely erased. Critics condemn his insistent identification with Peninsular Spanish rather than Mexican cultural roots and his conservative politics. A more likely motivation for his quest for Spanishness is the Historic Geographic theory and methodology he clung to in the search for origins and dissemination of folktales. Peeling back layers of outdated theory and politics reveals decades of solid fieldwork and documentation, still relevant today. The American Folklore Society (AFS) Notable Folklorists of Color 2019 exhibition and 2022 website have rekindled interest in the career of Espinosa, a past president of AFS.

Whitehead's Ethics: Fill in the Blanks
Authors: Bella Daniel , Stürmer Milan
Published: November 2023

The recent publication of the stenographer's transcript of Whitehead's guest lecture on “social ethics” has shed new light on the relation between his metaphysics and ethics. Instead of including ethics in his philosophy, Whitehead treats it as a distinct, specialized science that does not share in the universality of metaphysics. The present article argues that an analysis of his lecture shows that a nonindividualist Whiteheadian ethics is possible without rupturing the coherence of Whitehead's system or contradicting the ontological or subjectivist principle. As part of a larger transition in Whitehead's thinking during the years 1925–1927, he reformulates the notion of the environment as inheritance and is therefore able to pose the question of the endurance of values at the level of society, which is the purview of ethics. Reconstructing the metaphysical background may provide a “stimulus to the imagination” for ethical debates today, especially in the field of environmental ethics.

Ugly Publics
Authors: Chana Nadia
Published: November 2023

This essay takes up a collaboration between Inuk singer Tanya Tagaq and Greenlandic mask dancer Laakkuluk Williamson Bathory to theorize a form of dominant public I call an “ugly public.” Ugly publics rely on the difference between audiences (the people in the room) and publics (which are not quite people and rely on a series of texts) to come into being. Ugly publics result when a dominant public is pinned down and made to feel feelings associated with minoritarian positionings. Crucially, in ugly publics, these feelings do not result from empathizing with minoritarian subjects but rather from confronting their own dominance.

Study on Influencing Factors of Egg Price Fluctuation
Authors: Lu Jiacong
Published: November 2023

In recent years, due to the joint impact of food safety incidents, egg disease and price fluctuations of related substitutes, the market price of eggs, especially eggs, has fluctuated for many times, which not only affects residents' food consumption and income of egg farmers, but also affects the healthy development of egg industry. This paper selected the monthly panel data from 2014 to 2020 to study the influencing factors of egg price fluctuation. The results showed that chicken price and feed price had significant effect on the fluctuation of egg price, and the price of compound feed had the greatest effect on it. In addition, the increase of pork price would not necessarily lead to the rise of egg price. Meanwhile, the consumer price index had no significant impact on the price of eggs, and the increase of residents income level would significantly promote the price of egg. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to study the external and internal laws of egg price fluctuation and explore the mechanism of stabilizing egg price for the healthy development of poultry and egg industry and national economy.

The Relationship Between Chinese Consumer Behavior and Corporate Social Responsibility of Luxury Brands, after the COVID-19
Authors: Chen Zhehao
Published: November 2023

Consumer spending on luxury goods decreased during the outbreak. Luxury brands are also increasingly focusing on corporate social responsibility. The topic of this paper is to examine the relationship between the CSR of luxury brands and Chinese consumer buying behavior after COVID-19. In this study, 313 Chinese participants who are familiar with luxury goods, were randomly selected to finish a questionnaire. The data will be presented in graphical form, and this survey uses analysis of correlation as well as regression analysis to explore the relationship between different social responsibilities and consumer behaviors. Nearly all participants think that luxury companies should take social responsibility, but most of them don't choose to actively know about it actively, but only realize that luxury companies should take social responsibility passively when events happen. However, for companies, the consequences of not fulfilling social responsibility may seriously affect the sales of luxury companies. The three most important responsibilities include product quality and safety responsibility, environmental protection responsibility, and basic salary and welfare of employees. In addition, environmental responsibility, customer orientation responsibility, social responsibility, and employee and job placement responsibility all contribute to consumer purchasing behavior.
The Influence of Railways on Urban Development Based on a Resource-Based View
Authors: Qiu Hanxuan
Published: November 2023

As the product of the first Industrial Revolution, the railway has been in existence for a long time and has made an indelible contribution to the urban development of mankind. However, the railways status is declining in some countries, greatly affected by the development of aviation and road technology. In the academia, there is also a lack of analysis of the urban railway. In order to explore the railways status in urban sites and extend the literature of the resource-based view (RBV), this paper will discuss the railways impact especially on the urban sites based on RBV. We choose the city Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, China, as a case study. Then we compare the data before and after the building of the railway. The comparison is based on the triple bottom line (TBL) principle, which means using three different aspects to show the changes. In the end, we reveal the importance of railway resources and the concrete impact of building a railway on various sites. We also propose some suggestions for building a new railway.

Authors: Chen Zhengyi
Published: November 2023

Overtime in China is getting worse and more and more employees are re-quired to work overtime every day. Many sudden deaths and suicides have been reported as a result of the constant overtime work. However, research on overtime has not been extensively studied in China. This research has significant implications for the design of overtime mechanisms in companies. It also strongly identifies the negative effects of overtime on employ-ees. This paper will focus on the relationship between overtime and employ-ee satisfaction in Chinese companies. The research methodology is carried out using questionnaire analysis and interviews. The results show that there is an inverse relationship between the length of overtime work and satisfaction, while the older the age, the more overtime work increases. Half of the re-spondents were forced to work overtime due to unexpected hours.

Research on the Development of the Chinese Basketball Industry
Authors: Ding Fan
Published: November 2023

Professional basketball and the youth basketball development system are two main fields for improving the situation of Chinese basketball. By comparing the Basketball Professional League and youth basketball development systems between China and the United States, we discovered that the Chinese basketball system needs to be combined with education, the Chinese training model is outdated and incomplete, and the nationwide system has hampered the development of professional and youth basketball. Moreover, we found that China has a large number of basketball fans; national policies can help the development of the basketball industry; and China has rapid economic development. Eventually, Chinese basketball needs to focus on combining sports and education, absorbing advanced training systems, and establishing a sound management system.

Contribution to the Impact of Incubator on Nascent Startup Performance -- From Agency-problem Perspective
Authors: Zhou Zixuan
Published: November 2023

This study provides a novel model to discuss the function of incubator on startups by combining agency theory and social capital theory. The analysis is based on the assumption that the agency cost in startup business operations results in higher information asymmetry for creditors and equity investors in firm evaluation, which leads to more obstacles to a startups access to funding. The emphasis is on the startups operating environment from the perspective of goal-directed conflict and information asymmetry. The inference is conducted based on antecedent literature that mainly relied on social capital theory, and we try to shed light by adding agency theory to extend the boundaries of current studies. The implications of this result indicate the improved efficiency of utilizing an incubator in alleviating the complexity of a startups operating environment. The study provides insight into future policy making in startup development and incubator-related assistance.

Published: November 2023

The growing size of enterprise groups and the rapid development of information technology have given rise to financial shared services. They have brought about changes in the financial management model, improved the efficiency of accounting processes, and strengthened the control of molecular companies by reconstructing financial processes. However, there are some shortcomings in the current financial shared services, for example, the application of financial shared services is mainly focused on the operational level, concentrating on post-event processing, lagging behind the demand and facing difficulties. Therefore, this paper takes the financial shared service center of Mengniu Group as the research object and focuses on how to use new types of financial information technology to realize the digital transformation of the enterprise financial management process. The case is analyzed using relevant theories. The financial shared services model has improved the efficiency of modern enterprises' production and operations, expanded the analysis and decision support functions of finance, and facilitated the digital transformation of enterprise finance; at the same time, the value of data assets related to financial shared services has not been fully exploited, and the benefits of financial sharing are still limited to internal enterprises and have not been extended to other enterprises in the value chain. It is recommended that enterprises further improve their shared services and combine them with digital transformation based on data, process, and business specifications, and implement them more deeply in all dimensions of the value chain in the future to achieve value creation.

A Game Theory Explanation of the High Ticket Price in Scenic Spots
Authors: Tang Nade
Published: November 2023

Recently, the ticket price of domestic tourist attractions has continued to rise, which causes a hot debate in society. Compared with the international average, the ticket prices of some tourist attractions in China have reached or exceeded some developed countries. This paper points out that in different scenic spots their products are different. On this basis, it gives a monopoly competition model based on game theory, which can be used to explain the high ticket prices of scenic spots and other high prices, and can provide references for relevant departments to formulate countermeasures. The purpose of this paper is to point out that scenic spot products are differential monopoly products. By introducing the idea of game theory, it is demonstrated that the characteristics of differential monopoly may automatically lead to a complete monopoly price in scenic spots, resulting in social welfare losses. This model can explain the high ticket prices in China and the fact that some scenic spots are still planning to raise prices.
