Türkiye’deki mantar meşesi (Quercus suber L.) ağaçlandırmalarının değerlendirilmesi
Authors: PARLAK Salih , UZUN Murat
Published: July 2023

Mantar meşesi (Quercus suber L.) kabuğu, sanayi, gıda, otomotiv, izolasyon gibi çok farklı alanlarda kullanılmaktadır. 1975 yılında Torbalı Orman Fidanlığında 2 orijin ve 286 adet fidanla kurulan plantasyondan alınan tohumlardan üretilen fidanlar İzmir Orman Bölge Müdürlüğü’nde yapılan ağaçlandırma çalışmalarında kullanılmıştır. Ağacın kaliteli kabuk oluşturabilmesi yetişme yeri koşullarına, büyük ölçüde iklime bağlıdır. Türkiye’de farklı yükselti, bakı ve toprak tiplerinde yapılan ilk ağaçlandırmalar 20 yaşını aşmış ve bazıları kabuk üretimi yapılabilecek duruma gelmiştir. Bu çalışmaların mevcut durumlarının ortaya konulması, ülkemizin ihtiyacı olan bu değerli orman ürününün yetiştirilmesi ve ağaçlandırmalarda kullanılması için kıymetli bilgiler sağlayacaktır. Bu amaçla, yükselti ve bakının ağaçların boy, çap ve kabuk gelişimine etkisi incelenmiştir. Her deneme alanında 30’ar ağaçta çap-boy ölçümleri, 10’ar ağaçta kabuk kalınlıkları ölçülmüş ve gelişim durumları ortaya konulmuştur. Alt rakımlarda boy büyümesi, üst rakımlarda ise gövde çapı ve kabuk kalınlığının daha iyi geliştiği istatistiki olarak ortaya konulmuştur. Güneşli bakıların, gölgeli bakılara göre boy ve kabuk kalınlığı üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisinin olmadığı, çap artımında ise etkili bir faktör olduğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışma alanlarından alınan toprak örneklerinde tekstür killi balçık, tuzsuz (EC- 0,04), ortalama pH 7, CaCO3 %0,3 ve organik madde %1,8 olarak belirlenmiştir. Mantar meşelerinin bakımları zamanında yapıldığı taktirde gelişimlerinin daha iyi olacağı öngörülmektedir.
Latent mean differences between men and women: The case of the Preference for the Intuition and Deliberation Scale
Authors: Cosentino Alejandro César , Azzollini Susana Celeste
Published: July 2023

Intuition and deliberation are two modes of thinking for decision making. The objective of this research was to compare latent means between men and women’s preference for intuition and deliberation. However, empirical studies on the Preference for Intuition and Deliberation scale (PID) measurement invariance were not available. The results of our study showed the original PID-based model did not show a good fit to the data. Nevertheless, a revised PID-based model showed strong and strict measurement invariance. As a result, latent mean comparison indicated that women showed more preference for intuition and less for deliberation than men.
Decent work, positivity, and the satisfaction with life of Portuguese lawyers: An empirical study
Authors: Ferraro Tânia , Mudric Ecaterina
Published: July 2023

The present study aimed to investigate the associations between Decent Work (DW) and the Positivity and Life Satisfaction of Portuguese lawyers (N = 84). The Decent Work Questionnaire, the Positivity Scale and the Satisfaction With Life Scale were applied. The multiple regression linear analysis showed that: Fulfilling and productive work was an important antecedent of the Positivity, and that Fulfilling and productive work, Meaningful remuneration for the exercise of citizenship and Opportunities were antecedents of Satisfaction With Life. Then, the analysis of canonical correlations showed that six DW dimensions (exception for Social protection) were significant and positively related to Positivity and Satisfaction With Life. The perception of Decent Work is relevant to promoting Positivity and Satisfaction With Life for Portuguese lawyers. Limitations, practical implications, and future development prospects are presented in the final section.
El Museo Catedralicio de Toledo: creación, gestión, difusión y efectos sobre su patrimonio cultural (1900-1936)
Authors: De la Flor Gutiérrez Juan Carlos
Published: July 2023

El objetivo de este artículo es realizar un relato retrospectivo de la gestión museística y turística en la catedral de Toledo. Para ello, se han consultado los estatutos del cabildo de 1926, y se han buscado las noticias referentes al turismo entre 1900 y 1936 en los libros de actas capitulares. Gracias a ello se puede comprender la profesionalización turística del cabildo tras la apertura en 1900 del Museo Catedralicio. Para ello, es fundamental descubrir cómo se gestionaron los itinerarios, los precios, la difusión cultural o las exposiciones. La puesta en marcha de este proceso supuso toda una serie de problemas que dotaron al cabildo de una experiencia y un aprendizaje cuyos beneficios afectaron positivamente al templo y su patrimonio catedralicio, alejándose así de las estrecheces económicas heredadas de la Desamortización y la supresión del diezmo.

Un proyecto frustrado de portada de cantería para la Casa-palacio de los Venegas de Henestrosa, en Córdoba. Reconstrucción Histórica
Authors: Luque Carrillo Juan
Published: July 2023

A finales del siglo XVII, el antiguo palacio renacentista cordobés de los Venegas de Henestrosa fue convertido, por iniciativa del religioso Luis Antonio de Belluga, en Oratorio de San Felipe Neri, sede de la congregación filipense en la capital cordobesa hasta el siglo XIX. La sacralización del espacio y su nueva organización interior se debieron al arquitecto Francisco Hurtado Izquierdo, quien respetó la fachada del palacio original, atribuida a Juan de Ochoa y fechada en 1589. En el presente trabajo damos a conocer una escritura de concierto para la ejecución en 1571 de una portada en cantería patrocinada por don Egas Venegas de Figueroa, propietario del palacio, diseñada en origen para ennoblecer dicha fachada principal. Sin embargo esta portada nunca llegó a labrarse, sustituyéndose años después por el actual diseño que incluye dos portadas gemelas con balcones en sus cuerpos superiores y los escudos con las armas del linaje familiar.
The Sui Generis Nature of Legal Protection in the Case of Regional Development Aids in the Hungarian Legislation and Legal Practice – Focused on Irregularity Issues
Authors: Gönczi Lili , Hoffman István
Published: July 2023

The regional development aids have a significant role in Hungarian economic life, therefore, the legal regulation on them and the remedies against the decisions of the state agencies can be considered as an important issue. The article analyses the dogmatic background of state aid and regional development contracts. It is emphasized, that there is a tension between the EU and national-level legislation. These contracts and the liability for these contracts are interpreted as an administrative one by the EU regulation, however, the private law nature of these contracts is mainly highlighted by the Hungarian legislation and partly by the judicial practice. The article examines judicial practice, and it can be emphasized, that the above-mentioned tension can be observed in it. This tension has significant effects, especially since the effectiveness of these remedies can be questioned.
Influencia del conocimiento y la preocupación ambiental en la conducta y la toma de decisiones pro-ambientales
Authors: Rodríguez Loinaz Gloria , Antón Alvaro , Etxabe Urbieta Jose María , Villarroel Villamor José Domingo
Published: July 2023

Los retos ambientales a los que nos enfrentamos requieren un cambio de comportamiento de las sociedades actuales y la educación puede jugar un papel muy importante en la estimulación de dicho cambio. Para diseñar programas educativos que impulsen un cambio de comportamiento hacia uno más pro-ambiental, es necesario analizar los factores que pueden determinar el comportamiento ambiental de las personas. Este trabajo pretende avanzar en la descripción de los factores que influyen en la conducta y toma de decisiones pro-ambientales a partir de una encuesta a personas en formación de diferentes edades. Los resultados mostraron que la conducta y toma de decisiones ambientales parece estar ligada a factores no necesariamente relacionados con el nivel de conocimiento, como pudiera ser el componente afectivo. Finalmente, se proponen estrategias para estimular la creación de vínculos afectivos con el ambiente y su problemática que contribuyan al desarrollo de una conducta pro-ambiental.

Expósito, trovatello, enfant trouvé...: notas sobre los lexemas utilizados para la denominación de los niños abandonados en la Romania
Authors: Menéndez Fernández Claudia Elena
Published: July 2023

En este estudio se presenta un análisis comparado de los lexemas de origen latino que las distintas lenguas románicas conocen y emplean para designar a los niños abandonados o expósitos, tomando como referencia un corpus bibliográfico fundamental integrado por diccionarios, vocabularios, obras literarias y otras fuentes documentales. La cuestión del abandono infantil fue una realidad común y compartida por las diferentes sociedades europeas, lo que se tradujo en la existencia de una gran variedad de términos con que identificar a este tipo de niños. Destacan los apelativos relacionados con los valores semánticos de ‘expulsar’ o ‘arrojar fuera’, representados por los continuadores de expōnere, iectare o lapidāre entre otros, así como aquellos vinculados a los significados de ‘encontrar’ y ‘hallar’, seguidores de afflāre, captāre (/*accaptāre) y *tropare. También se documentan apelativos con origen en una serie de sustantivos y adjetivos latinos con significaciones variadas, como campus, -i, cŏphĭnus, -i, mūlus, -i, etc.
The Study of Type I Collagen by Immunoblotting in Samples of Bone-Plastic Biomaterials
Authors: Medvedeva T.N. , Volova L.T. , Kulagina L.N.
Published: July 2023

The type I collagen was studied in samples of two types of osteoplastic materials produced in the Biotech Research Institute of the Samara State Medical University using immunoblotting. The demineralized samples used in the work were compact bone powder and crushed material of human cancellous bone tissue. Collagen and its polypeptides were separated in a 5% polyacrylamide gel with 3.6 M urea according to the method of Hayashi and Nagai (1979). The advantage of the method is the separation under these conditions of type I and III collagen, as well as the α1(I) and α2(I) chains of type I collagen. Immunoblotting was carried out by diffusion method according to the method of Towbin et al. (1979) using nitrocellulose membranes (Santa Cruz, USA). Primary goat polyclonal antibodies to denatured collagen, 1:500 dilution (Millipore) were used. Peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (mouse vs. goat), 1:80000 dilution (Sigma) were used also. It has been established that the bulk of the compact bone protein is localized between the α1- and α2-fractions of collagen. In samples of cancellous bone tissue, a molecular reduction of the protein is noted. Protein macromolecules with a gradually decreasing molecular weight and low molecular weight polypeptides migrating in the gel with a wide front up to the indicator line are detected. Due to the low specificity of osteoblast integrins in regenerating bone tissue, collagen polypeptides, as well as protein molecules retained in implants, can act as inducers of synthetic processes occurring in osteoblast nuclei. Protein fragmentation products in the implant can act as signaling molecules that trigger cascades of enzymatic reactions and intracellular signaling pathways.
Assessment of ecological capacity for urban planning and improving resilience in the European framework
Authors: Córdoba Hernández Rafael , Camerin Federico
Published: July 2023

The basic idea underlying this research is that urban planning is one of the main causes of environmental degradation. Despite its relevance in impacting ecosystems, the current methodological assessments across Europe still fail to include spatial planning as a relevant factor. This paper aims to formulate an innovative methodology for the evaluation of ecosystems for protecting land at risk of degradation. This methodology is exemplified by the case of Spanish spatial planning applied in the Community of Madrid, being also capable to be employed in other European State Members after a cartographic adaptation. The proposed methodology specifically implements a European approach to the scale of regional and local spatial planning based on the “Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services” (MAES) project. Among the main results, four outcomes stand out. The first is the novelty to provide a methodology capable of dealing with natural values at regional and municipal levels based on a spatial-planning-based scale (1:20,000). The second result regards the incorporation of new attributes tied to existing ecosystems during the drafting of spatial plans, thus improving the quality of the information to make better decisions in terms of environmental protection. The third result is the more accurate environment assessment due to the inclusion of a new element of direct pressure on ecosystems, while the fourth outcome is that the proposed methodology detects the impacts of the drivers of change in the Community of Madrid. Although the cartographic information is defined at the regional scale, the results obtained can be linked to the municipal planning scale. The proposed methodology can be a much more useful tool for regional spatial planning for three main reasons: it works at the same scale as regional planning (1:20,000), it incorporates the environmental information necessary for the correct identification of natural values and impacts at the municipal level, and it works with geographic information systems. These reasons allow an easier and quicker incorporation of ecosystems in spatial planning tools by simultaneously interpreting and comparing different land protection issues such as ecosystem loss and ecosystem services.

Published: July 2023

Maxillofacial deformities that result from trauma, developmental abnormalities, destructive cancer surgeries, surgically operated mucormycosis can be difficult for a person to deal with as it affects the esthetics and functions and further degrades their quality of life. Hence, maxillofacial prosthesis not only corrects the deformity but also boost the self-confidence so that the patient can live his/ her life to the fullest. The creation of prostheses is currently undergoing a revolution, crediting the new, cutting-edge technologies including 3D modelling, printing, and imaging. These innovative methods are replacing the manual, labour-intensive, and expensive traditional methods of producing prosthetics with faster, less expensive methods that enable the creation of patient-specific prostheses. Our research aim to provide an update on the digital workflow of fabricating a maxillofacial prosthesis, highlighting the data collecting techniques at hand for extraoral, intraoral, and complex maxillofacial abnormalities, as well as evaluating the software’s used for data processing and designing. Also as the demand for a digital approach to craniofacial rehabilitation increases, it may be seen that the work of software designers will be at demand to help create accessible and user-friendly modules similar to those used in dental laboratories. As the demand for a digital approach to craniofacial rehabilitation is increasing, it has been noticed that assistance from the software designer will be required in future to produce user-friendly and accessible modules comparable to those used in dentistry laboratories

Authors: Mata Deepak B , Thakkar Shruti Vinod , Naik Saraswathi V. , Shagale Amitha M
Published: July 2023

Pierre robin sequence is characterized by the triad of mandibular micrognathia, ‘U’ shaped cleft palate, and glossoptosis. Infants with this condition usually present with airway obstruction and feeding difficulties. This in turn leads to low weight and nutritional deficiencies which might delay the surgical intervention for the same. This case report describes a one-month-old infant with Pierre Robin sequence presenting with feeding difficulty and nasal regurgitation due to a ‘U’ shaped cleft palate. Elastomeric impression followed by fabrication of feeding plate with auto-polymerizing resin was done. Additional ‘S-shaped’ retentive arms were provided from the intra-oral to extra-oral side wire to provide additional retention and to prevent injury to both the child and parent while feeding. Early insertion of a feeding plate helps to prevent nasal regurgitation, to gain weight, and to guide the growth of the mandible in a child with Pierre Robin Sequence.

Inflation in the United States: Will it Come Back?
Authors: Davydov Andrey
Published: July 2023

This article covers the major trends and changes in consumer price development in the US economy during 2022-2023. The major incentive for American inflation is a great increase in the budget deficit and public debt. The author considers that further growth of federal debt will become an obstacle to the problem of inflation targeting. Presently Federal Reserve System is financing government debt by purchasing Treasure notes. To provide these activities FRS has to increase money volume in circulation. In fact this monetary policy has significant negative effects on US inflation. Traditional corporations have also some possibilities to increase their sale prices and to accelerate inflation. Oil prices, which have tendency to grow, are considered to add some value to current inflation. In the Section 2 the major points of Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) are being analyzed. IRA is considered to be a remarkable law which aims to curb inflation by reducing budget deficit and investing into domestic energy production. According to the Budget Office, this Act will raise 738 billion dollars and authorize 391 billion dollars on energy change and 238 billion dollars in deficit reduction and tax reform. The law includes a large expansion and modernization efforts for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). In the Section 3 the problem of imported inflation is being analyzed. The estimates prove that in 2015-2022 U.S. export pr ices grew much faster than import prices. In the result US terms of trade improved and in fact United States exported inflation trends to other countries. Expensive dollar accelerated this process.

Rainwater chemistry of a developing urban-industrial metropolis in Southeast Nigeria
Authors: Ekwere Azubuike S.
Published: July 2023

Rainwater (RW) over the Calabar metropolis was analyzed to establish its chemistry, influences, and agricultural suitability. Sampling was done in the rainy and dry seasonal cycles for three years (2018–2020). pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and major ions (Ca2+, Na+, Mg2+, K+, HCO3-, Cl-, and SO42-) were registered and the principal component analysis (PCA) and ionic ratios were used to establish relationships between ionic species and project their sources. RW suitability for agriculture was determined by calculating the sodium and magnesium absorption ratios. Results indicated a relative abundance trend of cations towards Ca2+ > Mg2+ > K+ > Na+ while HCO3- > SO42- > Cl- was the trend for anions. pH varied from 6.1 to 7.8 (mean = 6.60). This and the EC reflected influences from atmospheric gases and in-cloud dissolved solids. The volume-weighted mean (VWM) of ions (Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, Na+, HCO3-, SO42-, and Cl-) was 246 eq/l in the rainy season and 198 eq/l in the dry season indicating low-moderate atmospheric pollution. Wet deposition (WD) fluxes for total ionic contents in RW were higher in the rainy season indicating the impact of rainfall. The PCA and the ionic ratios showed that the ionic concentrations were of crustal and marine origins predominantly. RW chemical characteristics in the study area compared with the concentration ranges of other local and global locations with similar geologic settings and low to moderate pollution indices showed close similarity. The RW assessment for agricultural use based on sodium and magnesium absorption ratios indicated good levels of suitability.

Authors: Mohamed Sami , Mukhtar Mutasim , Aseed Khalid , Osman Duaa , Dawelbait Mujtaba , Saeed Ahmed , Ahmed Nasma , Fadul Nihal , Idriss Rogia
Published: July 2023

Background: With blood glucose self-monitoring, patients may assess how well their glucose level is controlled, and change their treatment plan as advised by their physicians. The development and increasing availability of different devices that are readily accessible play a significant role in glycemic control and prevention of complications through early recognition with proper practice.
Methods: This observational cross-sectional study includes patients with diabetes attending Khartoum North Diabetes and Endocrinology Hospital and was carried out in April–July 2021 using convenient sampling via questionnaires obtained and filled by data collectors through interviews. Data analysis was done using SPSS software.
Results: Out of 125 patients, 82 had prior basic knowledge about glucose self-monitoring devices. Twenty-four patients were using it regularly, and only seven were using it daily. Fifty-one patients had never used any device before. Fifty-five patients owned a device, and the rest borrowed or used devices available at healthcare centers or clinics, pharmacies, relatives’ or neighbors’ devices. Factors hindering the use of devices included financial difficulties and lack of education. Most frequent users had a stable occupation. Just below half of the patients using devices had good practice techniques with significant association with higher level of education. The rest had poor practice technique that was associated with lower level of education.
Conclusion: Utilization of glucose self-monitoring devices is prevalent among patients with diabetes. However, many challenges require attention to facilitate ongoing self-use with proper practice in line with education and access.

Authors: Mohammed Abdelrahim Hisham , Mustafa Madani Abdelhaleem , Mohammed El-Hadiyah Tarig
Published: July 2023

Background: Individuals with type 2 diabetes who have optimum condition management are exposed to a significantly higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared to those who do not have diabetes. People with diabetes are estimated to have a fourfold greater risk of developing CVD than people without diabetes. CVD risk factors other than diabetes include older age, obesity hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, and a family history of coronary or kidney diseases.
Objectives: The study aims to assess the cardiovascular risk factors among type2 diabetes at Ribat Hospital Diabetes Clinic, Sudan.
Methods: T2 DM patients were evaluated for the presence of CVD risk factors by using data collecting form to extract data verbally and from patients’ files.
Results: Out of 147 T2 DM files, 92 (61.7 %) were female, 57 (38.3 %) were male, and 58 (38.9 %) patients were ≥ 60 year old. Patients who had poor glycemic control were 112 (75.2 %) and those who met the glycemic target were only 37 (24.8 %). Older age (P = 0.01) and diabetes duration (P = 0.026) were associated with poor glycemic control. Prevalence of hypertension was 61 (40.9 %), dyslipidemia 31 (20.8 %), and physical inactivity 112 (75.2 %). All patients had at least one CVD risk factor and those having all three risk factors were 48 (32.2 %).
Conclusion: All T2 DM diabetic patients in RHDC had at least one CVD risk factor and almost a third of them had all three risk factors. Poor glycemic control, physical inactivity, hypertension, and age ≥ 60 had a higher prevalence of CVD risk factors.
Una mirada analítica sobre la delación compensada del Grupo Empresarial JBS y el Estado Democrático de Derecho
Authors: Oliveira Cirne Alexcina
Published: July 2023

El objetivo de este artículo es presentar algunas reflexiones sobre las denuncias contra el Grupo Empresarial JBS ocurridas en 2017. Además, se realiza una exposición del concepto de delación en la historia y en el sistema jurídico brasileño con un enfoque sobre la situación del Estado Democrático de Derecho. La investigación es de naturaleza cualitativa y su corpus involucra bibliografía diversa, acciones cautelares e investigaciones del Ministerio Público Federal de Brasil. La conclusión de la investigación revela que la delación del grupo empresarial JBS nos permite identificar el intenso nivel de corrupción en el que están involucradas las instituciones públicas y privadas brasileñas. De otro lado, revela que los políticos y los altos funcionarios de gobernación en Brasil eluden las reglas y principios de la buena administración pública y buscan beneficios privados en un proceso de legitimación de la corrupción, lo que deriva en una amenaza corrosiva contra el Estado Democrático de Derecho.

Authors: Cárdenas Almanza Karen Miladys , Rosanía Maza Nino Angelo
Published: July 2023

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar la función que cumplen las metáforas en el discurso de Gustavo Petro Urrego, las cuales, según consideramos, hacen parte constitutiva de su acción política. Para llevar a cabo nuestro análisis partimos de los presupuestos teóricos Lakoff y Johnson (1986), así como de los trabajos sobre metáforas políticas de Musolff (2004; 2016). Para el desarrollo de este trabajo seleccionamos cuatro eventos comunicativos (del año 2013 a 2018). A partir del análisis de datos se precisaron las diferentes metáforas empleadas por Gustavo Petro Urrego al referirse a los conceptos de democracia y paz, los términos más recurrentes en los corpus identificados con el programa AntConc - Versión 3.5.9 (Anthony, 2019). Los resultados obtenidos muestran que, al concepto de democracia, desde un punto de vista metafórico, se le adscriben significados que obedecen a metas u objetivos; se percibe como símbolo o como forma de expresión poética, como ser vivo; como un objeto valioso que debe conservarse y por el cual se debe luchar y como una entidad a la cual se le debe temer. Por su parte, el concepto de paz se relaciona con los significados de: logro, finalidad o deseo, forma de expresión, símbolo y proceso comunicativo.

The phenomenon of radicalism in Indonesia goes on because of conflict and social friction among religious people. One of the reasons for this potential conflict is the development of information technology which makes it easier for internet users to disseminate the news they receive. On the contrary social media can also promote religious moderation ideas. Religious moderation protects religious people from going to extremes in insulting religious teachings which results in disunity. This article aims to find out the idea of the Mubadalah.id account in strengthening religious moderation, at the same time realizing moderate Islam in Indonesia. By using virtual ethnographic methods and content analysis techniques, this paper concludes that the Mubadalah.id account has carried the significant ideas as an effort to realize moderate Islam in Indonesia based on the four indicators of religious moderation of the Indonesian Ministry of Religion, namely: (1) promoting peaceful and tolerant religious principles; (2) upholding human values through gender equality; (3) voice for State Defense; (4) defending human rights, especially for women and children who are oppressed; and (5) strive for environmental preservation.

The people of Lampung, who are predominantly moslem, have a form of implementing customary fines known as dau. There is the term cepala or cepalau, which means 'violation of customary law' in Lampung, which is generally based on Islamic law. The people of Lampung, especially the Pepadun custom in West Tulangbawang Regency, adhere to customary law, which is a reflection of self-esteem that is relevant to the culture of the archipelago. This article aims to find out the practice of "customary fines' among the people of Lampung Pepadun in West Tulangbawang and describe the Islamic perspective on the practice of these customary fines. The researcher used the elicitation method with observing, note-taking, and interviewing techniques within the framework of legal anthropological theory with a phenomenological approach. In general, the practice of dau is in line with Islamic law. There is a stipulation of dau on the types of violations of customary law at mild, moderate, and serious levels, which have consequences of dau and social sanctions. In addition, there are types of violations of customary law in general that only result in punishment without social sanctions. The determination of dau is intended as social control to maintain order among the Pepadun indigenous people.
La formación de la sociedad civil y la democracia en el Perú
Authors: Forment Carlos A.
Published: July 2023

En 1831 Alexis de Tocqueville viajó a los Estados Unidos para estudiar el sistema penitenciario norteamericano y durante nueve meses observó la sociedad, la política y la economía de ese país. Esa visita dio lugar a La democracia en América, un análisis sobre la democracia representativa y sobre las razones del éxito del sistema democrático en ese país, así como sobre la influencia de la democracia en la sociedad civil. El objetivo de Carlos Forment en este trabajo es realizar la obra que Tocqueville hubiese escrito si hubiese viajado a América Latina en vez de a los Estados Unidos. Forment analiza una gran variedad de fuentes de época periódicos, panfletos, folletos, revistas, cartas y diarios de viaje para demostrar cómo, cuándo y dónde fue que surgieron formas de vida democráticas en el Perú decimonónico. De este modo, descubre que las prácticas democráticas en el Perú surgieron en la vida cotidiana en los centenares de asociaciones civiles, económicas y políticas que comenzaron a brotar a lo largo de todo el país en el siglo XIX. Estas prácticas les ofrecieron a los ciudadanos un «modelo de» y un «modelo para» ir transformando los hábitos autoritarios en hábitos cívicos y democráticos basados en la igualdad social, la libertad política y el reconocimiento mutuo.

THE REACTUALIZATION OF ‘IṢMAH AL-A’IMMAH CONCEPT: Analysis on the Interpretation of al- Ṭabatabâ’î
Authors: Attamimi Suraya , Nurhayati Nurhayati
Published: July 2023

‘Iṣmah al-a’immah issue has been a polemic among the theology community of Sunni-Shia, particularly in the internal Shia. The Shia Ismâ’ilîyah and Ithnâ ‘Asyarîyah communities believe in the absolute ma’ṣûm character of their leaders/imam. Meanwhile, some Shia Zaidîyah communities limit the character, and the rest totally refuses it. Al-Ṭabatabâ’î, a Shia Ithnâ Asyarîyah ulama known to be moderate and is accepted in Sunni community, has similar opinion with his mazhab’s doctrine regarding ‘iṣmah al-a’immah. However, al- Ṭabatabâ’î tried not to dwell on a never-ending ‘iṣmah issue, but interpreted it contextually instead. This article reveals the ‘iṣmah al-a’immah concept of al- Ṭabatabâ’î by applying qualitative research and analytic descriptive method. According to al- Ṭabatabâ’î, an imam/leader must be ma’ṣûm before guiding people toward devotion. The ma’ṣûm level is achieved through knowledge, irâdah and ikhtiyar of imam in obeying Allah and staying away from immorality. Their obedience makes Allah grant them with a well-absorbed special insight (‘ilm ḥuḍûrî) to form a character that later becomes a self-controller from sinful acts, with which they eventually achieve the ma’ṣûm level. Al- Ṭabatabâ’î then tried to escape from further theological debate by interpreting ‘iṣmah as a potential which is achievable by ordinary people to protect human values.
