Published: November 2022

Este artigo trata do uso da consoante lateral palatal em posição de início de sílaba, em particular de seu apagamento, no município de Rio das Rãs, uma comunidade quilombola localizada em Bom Jesus da Lapa, Bahia. A partir da caracterização da comunidade e do fenômeno investigado, apresentam-se os principais resultados de uma análise quantitativa multivariada na perspectiva variacionista laboviana. São analisados contextos de palavras contendo a sequência ʎV em 24 entrevistas orais. Entre as variáveis sociais e linguísticas analisadas, a análise de regressão logística de efeitos mistos apontou para o papel das variáveis escolaridade baixa e categoria morfológica masculino sobre o fenômeno. Também foram consideradas significativas as interações de variáveis mulheres/faixa etária jovem, como desfavorecedora do processo, e vogal média-alta e vogal alta no contexto precedente/vogal aberta no contexto seguinte, como favorecedoras. O papel dessas interações parece estar relacionado ao papel, respectivamente, das variáveis aleatórias palavra e participante.

Published: November 2022

A green supply chain is used to consider the environmental effects of all products, including environmental influences originating from goods/products and the product manufacturing process from raw materials to finished products. This study aims to perform a bibliometric analysis on the green supply chain topic by combining mapping analysis using VOSviewer software. In collecting the data, we used a quantitative bibliometric approach. Meanwhile, a descriptive method is used to obtain the results from the data collected. The data were retrieved from a Google Scholar search. We found 996 articles published in the 2012–2022 period from the search results. The results show that research on the green supply chain topic in 2012-2016 has not been widely carried out, and there has been an increase in 2017-2020. However, research on the green supply chain topic declined in 2021-2022. In conclusion, this study shows the importance of conducting bibliometric analysis, particularly on the green supply chain topic. This research is expected to be a reference for further research in conducting and determining the research theme.

Kreditkauf and Lieferungskauf as economical phenomena in the practice of the agoranomoi. Reconsideration of the contract under BGU I 174 and 189
Authors: Nemes Szilvia
Published: November 2022

In the Egyptian–Greek legal practice the “fictitious loan agreements” are known as specific constructions of deferred purchase contracts of the ancient legal practice. While Roman law is well known from its consensual contracts, such as the sales contract (emptio venditio), furthermore it acknowledged constructions of sales contracts with deferred payment as valid sale, Greek law always adhered to the prompt sale and besides this, only additional solutions were applied. One of these solutions was the so-called “fictitious loan agreements” (συγγραφὴ δανείου), where – as Fritz Pringsheim emphasized – if the seller provided the purchase price and “disguised” the sale as a loan, he had no claim on the basis of the sale, but could only sue on the basis of the loan. There remained several documents of this kind, however, in light of recent papyrological research, new evidence suggests a revision on how we are regarding these documents.

Published: November 2022

Kajian arus sejajar pantai serta variasi arus kedalaman telah dilakukan di wilayah pesisir Pantai Pasir Palik dimana daerah ini merupakan salah satu wilayah pesisir yang paling rawan terhadap abrasi pantai di Provinsi Bengkulu Utara. Pengumpulan data arus laut beserta arahnya pada tiga lokasi berbeda dilakukan pada 6 - 8 November 2018 dengan menggunakan peralatan RCM Seaguard Aanderaa. Untuk mengetahui keberadaan arus sejajar pantai, data arus pada dua lokasi dianalisis dengan current rose. Data arus dari lokasi ketiga juga telah dianalisis untuk mempelajari variabilitas arus terhadap kedalaman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kecepatan arus rata-rata pada lokasi 1 adalah 7,1 cm/s, dan lokasi 2 adalah 12,4 cm/s. Arah arus di lokasi 1 dan lokasi 2 dominan ke arah tenggara dan selatan-tenggara. Selain itu, variasi arus terhadap kedalaman di daerah pesisir Pantai Pasir Palik telah diamati baik besaran maupun arahnya dengan kecepatan arus rata-rata setiap kedalaman berkisar antara 12,55-44,35 cm/s. Arah dominan arus laut yang teramati sejajar dengan garis pantai, menunjukkan keberadaan arus sejajar pantai di daerah Pantai Pasar Palik, Lais, Bengkulu Utara. Fenomena ini mungkin berhubungan dengan peristiwa abrasi pantai di sepanjang pantai karena arus sejajar pantai dapat menyebabkan erosi dan mengalirkan sedimen ke arah tenggara dan selatan-tenggara menuju Kota Bengkulu.

Mortality differentials in beneficiaries of the National Institute of Social Security of Brazil in 2015
Authors: Gonzaga Marcos Roberto , Lima Everton Emanuel Campos , Queiroz Bernardo Lanza , Ansiliero Graziela , Freire Flávio Henrique Miranda de Araújo
Published: November 2022

ABSTRACT This paper aims to estimate mortality and analyze its differentials by sex, age, and groups of beneficiaries of the Brazilian National Institute of Social Security (INSS) in 2015 and make comparisons with official estimates for the general population, assessing the distribution of deaths by age and of survival after 65 years old. The results reinforce the need for more studies on mortality differentials between beneficiary groups and for continuous investment to improve the quality of the data. Population aging, among other aspects, puts pressure on the Brazilian social security system, and there is real concern about its sustainability. Life tables by population subgroups are fundamental as a tool for analyzing the financial and actuarial equilibrium of the system. The results contribute to the debate on the mortality differentials between groups of beneficiaries of the general pension and social security system in Brazil. The death and population data derive from the administrative records of the INSS. We used Gompertz and Van de Maen models and Topals regression to estimate the mortality rates above the age of 65, according to the following beneficiary groups: retirees through age of the General Social Security Regime (Regime Geral de Previdência Social - RGPS) - disaggregated by urban and rural clienteles; retirees through period of contribution; and beneficiaries of welfare support for low income seniors. Among the main results, it was possible to minimize the crossover in the mortality rates of older ages, when the mortality of the less advantaged population becomes lower than the mortality of populations with better social indicators. Cross-checking the results with the official mortality estimates, it was observed that life expectancies for the 65 and 75 year old age groups of the target population of this study are higher than in the general population.

RESUMO Este trabalho tem por objetivo estimar a mortalidade e analisar seus diferenciais por sexo, idade e grupos de beneficiários do Instituto Nacional de Seguro Social (INSS) brasileiro em 2015 e fazer comparações com estimativas oficiais para a população geral, avaliando a distribuição dos óbitos por idade e da sobrevida a partir dos 65 anos. Os resultados reforçam a necessidade de mais estudos sobre diferenciais de mortalidade entre grupos de beneficiários e do contínuo investimento para a melhoria da qualidade dos dados. O envelhecimento populacional, entre outros aspectos, pressiona o sistema de previdência social brasileiro, com preocupação real sobre sua sustentabilidade. As tábuas de vida por subgrupos populacionais são fundamentais como ferramenta para análise do equilíbrio financeiro e atuarial do sistema. Os resultados contribuem para o debate sobre os diferenciais de mortalidade entre grupos de beneficiários do regimente geral de previdência e da seguridade social no Brasil. Os dados de óbitos e população são dos registros administrativos do INSS. Utilizaram-se os modelos Gompertz e Van der Maen e regressão Topals para estimar as taxas de mortalidade acima de 65 anos, segundo os seguintes grupos de beneficiários: aposentados por idade do Regime Geral de Previdência Social (RGPS) - desagregados por clientelas urbana e rural; aposentados por tempo de contribuição; e beneficiários de amparos assistenciais para idosos de baixa renda. Entre os principais resultados, foi possível minimizar o crossover nas taxas de mortalidade das idades avançadas, quando a mortalidade da população menos favorecida se torna menor do que a mortalidade de populações com melhores indicadores sociais. Cotejando os resultados com as estimativas oficiais de mortalidade, observou-se que as esperanças de vida para as idades de 65 e 75 anos para a população-alvo desse estudo são maiores do que na população geral.
“NADA SOBRE NÓS SEM CORPO COMUM”: OUTRO PARADIGMA PARA INCLUSÃO NO ESNINO SUPERIOR?
Authors: Pagni Pedro Angelo
Published: November 2022

O presente artigo problematiza a dimensão ética ignorada pelos saberes sobre a deficiência e as epistemes utilizadas para designar no corpo em que se inscreve um poder desmesurado, mesmo com as conquistas obtidas pelos seus movimentos políticos nas últimas décadas, e a sua captura pelos atuais dispositivos de inclusão no ensino superior brasileiro. Recorremos para tanto ao método genealógico e à problemática ética da “indignidade de falar pelo outro” enunciados por Michel Foucault para situar, historicamente, em que momento os movimentos políticos das pessoas com deficiência assumem de alguma forma esse enunciado e quais os limites de seus efeitos de poder no ensino superior brasileiro. Objetivamos com isso analisar criticamente as tensões internas de tais movimentos, os indícios do escape à norma médica e à normalidade social com o intuito de problematizar os modelos dos saberes que nelas se pautaram, assim como assinalar os poderes emergentes de um corpo comum como qualquer outro em suas lutas por educação inclusiva e justiça social. Nesse sentido, argumentamos pela formação de um corpo comum no ensino superior, constituído a partir dos encontros de saberes e das diferenças, agenciando pelo exercício de uma alteridade radical e da mobilização de devires minoritários do povo que falta como uma possibilidade de emergência de outro paradigma de inclusão.
Reconceptualising sovereign debt in international law
Authors: Bello Muhammad , Snyman-van Deventer Elizabeth
Published: November 2022

Recurring debt crises and innovations in the sovereign debt landscape over the past couple of decades have rekindled interest in the nature and forms of sovereign debt. There are multiple outlets for contracting loans, all with different policies, principles and procedures. For instance, resource-backed loans have provided an additional option for resource-rich countries in Africa and Latin America to support their quest for infrastructural development. However, these and other innovations in sovereign financing may affect the dominant understanding and dynamics of sovereign debt governance. The silence of the literature on the place of development in the conceptualisation of sovereign debt is striking. Therefore, using doctrinal methodology, this article proposes a reconceptualization of sovereign debt to reflect these innovations, gaps, and emerging trends. It is argued that sovereign financing needs a theoretical underpinning linked to the objective of development. This article proposes a distinction between development-driven and non-development-driven sovereign debt. It is argued that a development-based conception of sovereign debt would make the recurring legitimacy issues surrounding the character of the sovereign relevant and more reflective of contemporary changes in the practice of sovereign financing.
Water production as an option for utilizing closed underground mines
Authors: Dvofacek J. , Malikova P. , Sousedikova R. , Heviankova S. , Rys P. , Osickova I.
Published: November 2022

Each mining project goes through the same life-cycle, from prospecting and exploration to closure and post-closure periods. This prompts the question whether the closure of a mine constitutes the end of its life-cycle or whether the decommissioned mine can be employed for some other purpose. Best-practice references indicate that there are many viable options. In our opinion, the production of service water is one such option. Laboratory research was carried out on the water from a flooded underground coal mine in Ostrava-Karvina coal district, Czech Republic, concerning the production of service water from pumped mine-water. The research proved the practical feasibility of service or process water production. Given the effect of global climate change with regard to water resources, good prospects for this additional resource can be assumed since the water has to be pumped in any case for safety reasons.
Promotive role of IRF7 in ferroptosis of colonic epithelial cells in ulcerative colitis by the miR-375-3p/SLC11A2 axis
Authors: Chen Zepeng , Gu Qinglong , Chen Ruichao
Published: November 2022

Ferroptosis is implicated in the progression of ulcerative colitis (UC), and interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) contributes to cell death. This study probed the mechanism of IRF7 in ferroptosis of colonic epithelial cells (ECs) in mice with dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced UC. The UC mouse model and the in vitro ferroptosis model were respectively established by DSS feeding and the treatment of FIN56 (a ferroptosis inducer). Results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blotting revealed the upregulation of IRF7 and solute carrier family 11 member 2 (SLC11A2/NRAMP2/DMT1) and the downregulation of microRNA (miR)-375-3p in DSS-treated mice and FIN56-treated ECs. Silencing of IRF7 improved the symptoms of UC in DSS-induced mice and decreased the levels of tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin 6, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, and interleukin 1β, reactive oxygen species, iron ions, lipid peroxidation, and increased glutathione and glutathione peroxidase 4. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase assays showed that binding of IRF7 to the miR-375-3p promoter inhibited miR-375-3p expression, and miR-375-3p suppressed SLC11A2 transcription. The rescue experiments revealed that knockdown of miR-375-3p neutralized the role of silencing IRF7 in alleviating ferroptosis of colonic ECs. Overall, IRF7 upregulated SLC11A2 transcription by inhibiting miR-375-3p expression, thereby prompting ferroptosis of colonic ECs and UC progression in DSS-treated mice.

Network design process is a very important in order to balance between the investment in the network and the supervises offered to the network user, taking into consideration, both minimizing the network investment cost, on the other hand, maximizing the quality of service offered to the customers as well.Partitioning the network to smaller sub-networks called clusters is required during the design process inorder to ease studying the whole network and achieve the design process as a trade-off between several atrtributes such as quality of service, reliability,cost, and management. Under CANON, a large scale optical network is partitioned into a number of geographically limited areas taking into account many different criteria like administrative domains, topological characteristics, traffic patterns, legacy infrastructure etc. An important consideration is that each of these clusters is comprised of a group of nodes in geographical proximity. The clusters can coincide with administrative domains but there could be many cases where two or more clusters belong to the same administrative domain. Therefore, in the most general case the partitioning into specific clusters can be either a off-line or a on-line process. In this work only the off-line case is considered. In this Study, we look at the problem of designing efficient 2- level Hierarchical Optical Networks (HON), in the context of network costs optimization. 2-level HON paradigm only have local rings to connect disjoint sets of nodes and a global sub mesh to interconnect all the local rings. We present an Hierarchical algorithm that is based on two phases. We present results for scenarios containing a set of real optical topologies.

El análisis de las representaciones culturales del paisaje, especialmente las de tipo visual, constituye una excelente herramienta para conocer la evolución histórica del territorio, dando a conocer sus principales transformaciones, así como la permanencia de sus diversos elementos, a través de sus reproducciones en diferentes formatos: artísticos, técnicos, fotográficos, filmográficos, entre otros. Este trabajo ha abordado uno de los espacios turísticos de mayor transformación territorial: la costa occidental de la provincia de Málaga. Para el estudio de este espacio litoral se han seleccionado, aproximadamente, 1.500 imágenes y se ha procedido a su georreferenciación y datación, así como al análisis de sus características paisajísticas, apreciando los elementos más relevantes del paisaje que son mostrados en calidad de hitos o espacios referenciales, el estudio de sus perspectivas visuales, orientaciones, amplitud visual o tipología de paisajes.
Policía y territorio: continuidades y rupturas en la gestión de la seguridad pública durante la pandemia COVID-19 (Mar del Plata, 2020-2021)
Authors: Lorenç Valcarce Federico
Published: November 2022

Se aborda el modo en que los agentes policiales realizan sus tareas de mantenimiento del orden y control del delito, identificando las continuidades y las rupturas que pueden observarse en la producción de seguridad durante la pandemia de COVID-19. El análisis se apoya en entrevistas con personal policial y con otros informantes clave, en particular, con participantes en los foros de seguridad, militantes sociales y dirigentes políticos locales. El trabajo de campo se realizó desde mediados de 2020 hasta finales de 2021, en el momento inmediatamente posterior a la aplicación de las medidas más drásticas de aislamiento social obligatorio. Según el estudio, la actividad policial vio inicialmente reducidas o suspendidas algunas de sus áreas habituales de intervención, como el control del delito callejero o la investigación criminal; en otros aspectos, siguió desempeñándose según patrones operantes antes de la pandemia, como la regulación de las violencias sociales en ciertos segmentos de la población. La novedad consistió en la generalización de los operativos de control de la circulación de las personas y la restricción a las reuniones sociales. En pocos meses, el policiamiento de la ciudad volvió a ordenarse según la configuración social e institucional previa a la pandemia.
Programa Nacional de Producción de Suelo: la interdependencia entre diseño e implementación de una política pública. El caso de la ciudad de Esperanza, Santa Fe (2020-2021)
Authors: Carné Martín

El déficit habitacional alcanza en Argentina a aproximadamente tres millones y medio de hogares. Aunque en los últimos años fueron implementadas diversas políticas de ampliación, refacción y construcción de vivienda, las líneas de acción orientadas a acondicionar y calificar suelo con infraestructura de servicios han sido, además de excepcionales, acotadas en su alcance. Para contribuir a mitigar tal situación problemática, el Ministerio de Desarrollo Territorial y Hábitat (MDTyH) de la Nación lanzó en 2020 el Programa Nacional de Producción de Suelo (PNPS) para financiar la cualificación de suelo por parte de estados provinciales y municipales. El presente artículo enfoca la implementación de esta política a partir de la experiencia del Instituto Municipal del Hábitat (INMUHA) de la ciudad de Esperanza en la provincia de Santa Fe. Utilizando como fuentes de información la normativa y documentos procedimentales del PNPS, la realización de entrevistas a funcionarios del INMUHA, y testimonios de funcionarios del MDTyH en entrevistas y eventos técnico-académicos disponibles en internet, la investigación halla que la implementación del PNPS -todavía en ejecución- se apoya en una minuciosa estandarización de procesos de trabajo por parte del MDTyH que simplifica la labor a nivel local y en el saber experto de los agentes de las burocracias involucradas. Asimismo, se observa que esta política hace visible la necesidad de ajustes de coordinación entre el INMUHA y áreas del Poder Ejecutivo provincial y en el propio INMUHA, el cual opera al límite de sus capacidades en la simultánea ejecución de diferentes programas habitacionales.
Elementos para una conceptualización amplia de la política habitacional
Authors: Palumbo Joseph
Published: November 2022

A partir de una discusión de la noción de política habitacional, el artículo propone una conceptualización amplia que permite relacionar el conjunto de diversas acciones estatales relacionadas a la cuestión habitacional con los resultados en el sector de la vivienda y las condiciones habitacionales de la población. Luego, a partir de una revisión histórica de los principales elementos de la política habitacional en Argentina a lo largo de su historia, ilustra este concepto para delinear una agenda renovada de investigación sobre la política habitacional desde las ciencias sociales.
El enfoque del “diseño de política”: antecedentes y herramientas para el análisis de políticas públicas
Authors: Comba Daniel
Published: November 2022

Los estudios de políticas públicas tienen un gran desarrollo en la Ciencia Política desde la segunda parte del siglo XX. Dentro de los diversos enfoques para el estudio de las políticas, el presente trabajo centra la atención en el de “Diseño de Políticas” (DdP) (Policy Design), dando cuenta de sus antecedentes, los primeros trabajos y líneas de indagación que se desarrollaron al interior del enfoque, en particular en torno a los instrumentos para el diseño (y los supuestos de comportamientos subyacentes), los vínculos entre actores, reglas y modos de gobernanza para las opciones de políticas, y los aportes al enfoque desde algunas propuestas neoinstitucionalistas. Al final se identifican los puntos de acuerdos y algunas de sus limitaciones, y se presenta un estado actual del enfoque.

La disciplina de las políticas públicas y el campo de las evaluaciones han privilegiado, por mucho tiempo, el enfoque cuantitativo para valorar los resultados de los programas y políticas gubernamentales. Son exitosos si cumplen con los objetivos planteados. Sin embargo, cada vez es más frecuente encontrar trabajos académicos y técnicos que defienden la importancia de utilizar herramientas cualitativas y centradas en la población beneficiaria. Por lo tanto, este artículo, bajo las perspectivas de la evaluación cualitativa y la participativa, estudia el fais, un programa del gobierno federal mexicano, y propone un modelo que ayude a interpretar la percepción de los beneficiarios acerca de los bienes y servicios públicos recibidos.
Influencias de los discursos cisnormativos en el cuidado físico y psicoemocional de jóvenes trans de México

Published: November 2022

La cisnormatividad en el ámbito de la salud ha implicado la patologización de identidades que no se identifican con los criterios de la lógica binaria del género. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar el alcance y la influencia que los discursos cisnormativos tienen en el cuidado y la salud de las y los jóvenes trans. Entre marzo de 2021 y mayo de 2022, se llevaron a cabo entrevistas semiestructuradas que se analizaron a la luz de la perspectiva socioconstruccionista. Participaron cinco jóvenes trans (dos mujeres trans y tres varones trans), de entre los 20 y 29 años. Los resultados mostraron la incorporación en sus relatos de aspectos del discurso cisnormativo del género; no obstante, a la par generan narrativas alternativas, en las que el cuidado psicoemocional y del cuerpo les lleva a posicionarse lejos de tropos narrativos como la disforia y “el cuerpo equivocado”. Concluimos que este trabajo contribuye a desmantelar la visión médica de las personas trans, mostrando cómo a través de sus recursos, adoptan prácticas de autocuidado. Asimismo, refleja la importancia de construir diálogos con las personas trans que permitan generar más y mejores estrategias de atención.
Marrying Christ: Bernard of Clairvaux and the Song of Songs in Aemilia Lanyer’s "Salve Deus Rex Judaeorum"
Authors: Diemer Jocelyn
Published: November 2022

In 1611, an Englishwoman named Aemilia Lanyer published a volume of poetry and prose titled Salve Deus Rex Judaeorum. Throughout the volume, which centres on an 1800-line retelling of Christ’s death and resurrection, Lanyer draws from the Song of Songs as well as other biblical texts to produce an image of Christ as a Bridegroom. In so doing, Lanyer inserts herself into a hermeneutical genealogy populated by both Protestant and Catholic writers. A key figure in this interpretive tradition is the twelfth-century abbot and mystic Bernard of Clairvaux, whose sermon cycle on the first part of the Song of Songs offers a detailed character study of the Bridegroom. This article examines the cross-confessional nature of the bridal-mystical tradition epitomized by Bernard before conducting a close reading of the images that Lanyer associates with Christ. Ultimately, this article suggests that Lanyer puts bridal theology to a new communal use by producing a devotional poetic space in which female readers can engage with each other through Christ and with Christ through each other.
Assessing Mild Cognitive Impairment Using Portable Electroencephalography: The P300 Component
Authors: Smith Hannah
Published: November 2022

Increased prevalence of mild cognitive impairments (MCIs) and dementias are a growing concern as the population ages, which produces a need for an objective, accessible, and cost-effective tool to facilitate early detection and intervention. This article investigates whether a portable electroencephalography (EEG) system can provide an effective measure of MCI using a visual oddball task to target the memory and attention event-related potential (ERP) component called the P300. In this study, 40 participants were separated into two groups: individuals with a diagnosed cognitive impairment and a healthy age-matched control group. Participants completed two typical pen-and-paper MCI assessments to gather behavioural data, which were followed by a perceptual EEG oddball task to gather brain data. Results show that the MCI group demonstrated decreased behavioural task performance in the pen-and-paper assessments and a modulated brain response during the oddball task when compared to healthy controls, which the portable EEG system revealed to be a decreased P300 peak amplitude. These results indicate the capability of portable EEGs to identify biomarkers for MCI and their potential use in the diagnostic process. This capability could provide major benefits to patients, their families, and physicians, and would also assist with Alzheimer’s research. Future research could expand on these findings by applying a lifespan or disease-span approach to investigate P300 changes in the course of a healthy individual’s life compared to P300 changes in individuals with MCI over the entire course of their disease. This research could also cultivate a greater understanding of how MCI progresses, which could improve diagnostic or treatment development.
