Infekcijos etiologija sergant cistine fibroze
Authors: Vitkauskienė Astra
Published: November 2020

Pirmoji bakterija, kurios klinikinė reikšmė infekcijos etiologijoje sergant cistine fibroze buvo lengvai nustatyta, yra Staphylococcus aureus. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), kuri buvo dažnai išskiriama cistine fibroze sergantiems pacientams 1960 m., 1970 m. pradžioje laikyta ne patogenu ir iki 1990 m. dėl jos reikšmės buvo diskutuojama. Dabar P. aeruginosa klinikinė reikšmė įrodyta. Nustatyta, kad yra ir kitų, retesnių, sukėlėjų, kurie svarbūs cistine fibroze sergan-tiems pacientams: Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (anksčiau vadinta P. maltophilia, Xantomonas maltophilia), Achromobacter xylosoxidans, Pandoraea spp. (įskaitant Pandoraea apista), netuberkuliozinės Mycobacteria spp. Mikrobiologinė diagnostika ir rezultatų interpretavimas tiriant cistine fibroze sergančius pacientus turi tam tikrų savitumų. Interpretuojant rezultatus, reikia atskirti laikiną kolonizaciją nuo lėtinės infekcijos, dažnai atliekant kartotinius pasėlius ir/arba nustatant antikūnų atsaką į mikroorganizmą. Jei skrepliuose išskirtas sukėlėjas susijęs su klinikiniais uždegimo simptomais, patologiniais radio-loginiais požymiais, kvėpavimo funkcijos blogėjimu, pasėlyje šio sukėlėjo kiekiui mažėjant ir išnykus, gydant antibakteriniais vaistais, turi būti pastebimas ir klinikinis būklės gerėjimas. Kvalifikuota mikrobiologinė tarnyba, galinti tiksliai nustatyti patogeno morfologinį tipą ir padėti parinkti optimalius antibiotikus, yra būtina sėkmingo antimikrobinio cistinės fibrozės gydymo sąlyga.

Authors: Mohapatra Malaya Ranjan , Moirangthem Nirmalkumar Singh , Vishwakarma Pankaj
Published: November 2020

Recently, Financial Inclusion has received greater attention, as it is a key to economic growth and equality, growth of the business, and stability of financial and banking systems. In the process of understanding how technology is useful for financial inclusion, the study tries to understand the elements that prompt the perceived acceptability of mobile banking among the low income and low literate stratum. To explore these elements, the current piece of work utilized the Unified theory of acceptance and use of technology and with the addition of component of perceived risk. The research utilized convenience sampling to collect data from the respondents having Jan Dhan account. The results show that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and perceived risk have a significant influence on intention to use mobile banking among financial inclusion stratum. Surprisingly, the facilitating conditions were found insignificant. The outcomes of the research can guide banks and technology houses to develop a more user-acceptable mobile banking system. Also, the outcome will help policymakers to enhance mobile banking system adoption for financial inclusion by considering influencing elements.
Shroud and Portrait of a Medieval Ruler
Authors: Mitterauer Michael
Published: November 2020

The research is concerning two unusual evidences of the late Medieval art, which could be seen in the Museum of the cathedral St. Stephan in Vienna. Both of them are related to Herzog Rudolf IV of Austria (1358 - 1365). One artefact in the museum is his silk gold woven shroud elaborated with especial mastership from Chinese silk in Tabriz, a city in present Iran. Especially important for this fabric is that thanks to the interwoven name of the ruler it could be dated precisely. The road of this Near East fabric to Europe and to the tomb of the Herzog in Vienna could be reconstructed. Rudolf IV died suddenly during the visit to his relative Bernabo Visconti in Milano who was one of the richest men in Europe by that time. Probably the fabric was brought across the Silk Road to Constantinople and further across the sea to Genova and to the city of silk Lucca and then to Milano. Such gold woven fabrics from the Islamic world could be found not rarely in the European ruler’s tombs. The second unusual object in the cathedral museum is a portrait of the Herzog. So far this portrait was attributed to a Prague artist. But it could be proved that it originated from Upper Italy and probably was painted by an artist from Verona who was associated to the society around the great humanist Francesco Petrarca. This portrait rises the question about the emergence of early ruler's portraits in Eu-rope and in this aspect is also related to achievements of the „Palaeologus Renaissance“ art in South – East Europe. The two objects are considered as expression forms of the ruler’s funeral culture of the late Medieval age. In the context formed by the comparative approach new possibilities for analysis are created which cross over the traditional methodology of History of Art.

Bulgarian 20th Century in Arts and Culture. Institute of Art Studies, 2019, ISBN: 978-954-8594-77-6, 632 рр. 333 ill. http://artstudies.bg/books/BG_XX_EN_2019_IIIzk.pdf in Bulgarian and in English in two separate books comes as a result of a collaborative interdisciplinary project supported by the National Science Fund, Bulgaria, which aims to present a general view on the history of arts in Bulgaria during the 20th century. There are specific but also general, parallel intellectual and artistic processes observed in the field of literature, theatre, music, cinema, visual arts and architecture. The accent is put on phenomena related to the modernization of Bulgarian culture and its place in the context of the flexible, dynamic cultural dimensions of modern Europe. The texts are structured in three parts: Under the Sign of Modern Europe (1878–1944), Metamorphoses of Modernity (1945–1989), Challenges in a Time of Transition (1989–2000). Splitting the period into topical parts creates convenience of sharpening the accents related to various “aspects of change” in the development of a particular art and its specific reflections from the point of view of personal and community identity analysed in synchronous or diachronous terms. The marking of such cross nodes (temporal, socio-cultural, institutional, genric, etc.) by following mosaic-chronological principle is conventional and provocative to the traditional idea concerning developmental trends in Bulgarian culture of the past century. The publication is richly illustrated and has an extensive bibliography. It is intended for a wide range of readers. It is evaluated as excellent edition by the National Science Fund, Bulgaria.
In a Free State (V.S. Naipaul’s Half a Life)
Authors: Kostova-Panayotova Magdalena
Published: November 2020

This text’s title makes a reference both to Vidiadhar Surajprasad Naipaul’s eponymous work and to the meaning contained in the English phrase “in a free state”, the latter being directly implicated in one of the difficult questions regarding this artists: where does Naipaul belong (1932 - 2018) – is he an English, an Indian or a Trinidadian author, or is he one to whom such categorizations do not apply because in the course of his life he came to embody the very idea of the artist’s being “in a free state”. However appealing it might be to assume the latter idea, his works as well as the many debates surrounding them actually question this freedom. Because the Trinidad born future Nobel laureate (the name of the city is evocative of the Holy Trinity), had at least three homes, even though his attitude to his “homelands” was a controversial one and even though he articulated his own identity controversially and not in one go. In his Nobel lecture Naipaul suggested that the credit for the Nobel Prize should go to England where his home was, and to India, where the home of his predecessors was, but he did not emphasize the significance of Trinidad where he had been born and had grown up.
Issues of Democratization and Intercultural Dialogue in Turkey of 21st Century
Authors: Makaradze Emzar
Published: November 2020

There can be no peace without democratization and intercultural dialogue, which due to their importance lead to the ultimate result of what is called the union of civilizations among nations. In this regard, it is interesting to consider the issues of democratization and intercultural dialogue in Turkey in 21st century.In order to reach a high level of democratic development, any state needs a strong society and political will. At the beginning of the 20th century, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk (1881-1938), the founder of the Turkish Republic, took the course of state development of the country to the West and declared the path of Europeanization as the main principle of unchanging domestic and foreign policy.The current events in Turkey in the first decade of 21st century have shown that the country is developing as a strong state. So, it is interesting to observe how the Republican Turkey will continue to pursue democratic and European values and to support the state rule of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.For Turkey and its leader, Islam is a tool that helps to stabilize the political system and transform Turkey into a traditional, conservative society with fewer opportunities to generate protests related to social, ethnic and other civil rights.The coming decades will show whether the country with a Muslim culture will be able to adapt to a democratic Western civilization and what the consequences will be.
How Can the Living Ties be Severed in the Field of Culture
Authors: Kitova Irina
Published: November 2020

In this paper we will try to apply Kuhn’s views on the structure of scientific revolutions in the field of culture and film art. We will try to find to what extent we can apply or reject such understandings of the field of culture, even if only in the strictly national dimensions of a cultural phenomenon. By tracking the development of the film art and industry through the changes they cause or the cultural functions they perform, we can verify whether and to what extent the ideal in science is comparable to the ideal in the culture and the arts. We will also be looking for anomalies, non-functional paradigms and paradoxes, which could influence not only the development of culture in national context, but also the construction of the essential matter of the cultural field as a unique global phenomenon, the result of human activity, ideas and creativity.Through the history of building the first movie theater “Modern Theater” in Bulgaria, in 1908, the beginning and evolution of cinema as an art, a national cine-ma industry, film networks and film distribution, film studies and film education will trace the genesis of a new layer in the field of the Bulgarian national culture and the preconditions for its sustainability, significance and vitality.
The First Stage of the Ottoman Modernization Viewed through the Prism of Walt Rostow’s Model
Authors: Nanov Plamen
Published: November 2020

The Modernization is a process conceived in the heart of the Western European world, which subsequently finds ground for its deployment in some non-Western societies also. The main goal of the present article is to clarify the logic, specifics and fluctuations in the genesis of the Ottoman modernization through the prism of historical sociology and Walt Rostow’s stages of Economic Growth model. Above all else, the focus of the research falls on the socio-economic, political, and military condition of the late Ottoman Empire. The mechanisms through which the Empire sustains its existence are illustrated, as well as the fundamental reasons for its fall. Secondly, the research accentuates the attempts of integrating the “Western” model of modernization done by the Ottoman Empire from the period of the “Tanzimat” to the end of the First World War, as well as the results of the said endeavour.

Th e appearance of the current COVID-19 pandemic has not only signifi cantly changed the usual rhythm and conditions of our life, but also came as a direct surprise to many, causing a sense of anxiety and insecurity. As the new situation developed and its consequences accumulated, long-standing problems that had previously gone unnoticed or unimportant for many were increasingly identifi ed. And if a year ago the discussion of these issues was not perceived properly in the medical community, today the situation itself dictates the need for such an analysis. Moreover, the pandemic has come as a complete surprise to the vast majority of specialists, depriving them of their usual treatment regimens, and the current off ers and eff orts of medical care are symptomatic and do not aff ect the overall results.

Published: November 2020

Biophilic city refers to the affiliation of the cities to conserve the natural environment and strive to achieve high connections with the green surroundings. As cities face swift urbanization, the green lungs of vegetation and forestry are sacrificed to accommodate buildings and infrastructures needed by the increasing population. Via biophilic design approach, countries like Singapore and New Zealand have proven that they are able to reclaim the nature and green environment for better quality of lives. This preliminary study is therefore aimed to develop the biophilic climate-conscious design for an area by focusing on the biophilic way of sustaining natural wind condition. This is due to the fact that the disturbance on natural wind condition might lead to bad ventilation or other significant modified wind flow such as gust, where in worst case scenario, may cause disaster cause by abnormal wind. As a result, this paper is expected to discover an appropriate wind flow simulation for wind flow map of a chosen potential area which is useful in guiding the local authorities towards future development of naturally environment.

Broadband Linear Polarization in the Region of the Open Star Cluster NGC 1817
Authors: Singh Sadhana , Pandey Jeewan C.
Published: November 2020

Multiband linear polarimetric observations of 125 stars in the region of the cluster NGC 1817 have been carried out intending to study properties of interstellar dust and grains in that direction. The polarization is found to be wavelength-dependent, being maximum in the V band with an average value of 0.95%. The foreground interstellar dust grains appear to be the main source of linear polarization of starlight toward the direction of NGC 1817. The average value of the position angle in the V band of 119.°2 is found to be less than the direction of the Galactic parallel in the region, indicating that the dust grains in the direction are probably not yet relaxed. Spatial distribution of dust appears to be more diverse in the coronal region than the core region of the cluster. The maximum value of the degree of polarization is estimated to be 0.93% for members of the cluster using the Serkowski relation. The average value of wavelength corresponding to the maximum polarization of 0.54 ± 0.02 μm indicates that the size distribution of dust grains in the line of sight is similar to that of the general interstellar medium. Several variable stars in the cluster were also observed polarimetrically and pulsating variables appear to have a slightly lower value of polarization from other nonvariable member stars of the cluster. There are indications of the existence of dust layers in front of those clusters which are located close to galactic plane while for clusters located away from galactic plane no major dust layers are observed.
Nondetection of Helium in the Upper Atmospheres of Three Sub-Neptune Exoplanets

Published: November 2020

We present a search for helium in the upper atmospheres of three sub-Neptune-sized planets to investigate the origins of these ubiquitous objects. The detection of helium for a low-density planet would be strong evidence for the presence of a primary atmosphere accreted from the protoplanetary nebula because large amounts of helium are not expected in the secondary atmospheres of rocky planets. We used Keck+NIRSPEC to obtain high-resolution transit spectroscopy of the planets GJ 1214b, GJ 9827d, and HD 97658b around the 10833 Å He triplet feature. We did not detect helium absorption for any of the planets despite achieving a high level of sensitivity. We used the nondetections to set limits on the planets’ thermosphere temperatures and atmospheric loss rates by comparing grids of 1D models to the data. We also performed coupled interior structure and atmospheric loss calculations, which suggest that the bulk atmospheres (winds) of the planets would be at most modestly enhanced (depleted) in helium relative to their primordial composition. Our lack of detections of the helium triplet for GJ 1214b and GJ 9827d is highly inconsistent with the predictions of models for the present-day mass loss on these planets. Higher signal-to-noise data would be needed to detect the helium feature predicted for HD 97658b. We identify uncertainties in the extreme-ultraviolet fluxes of the host stars and the lack of detailed mass-loss models specifically for cool and metal-enhanced atmospheres as the main limitations to the interpretation of our results. Ultimately, our results suggest that the upper atmospheres of sub-Neptune planets are fundamentally different from those of gas giant planets.

Ultra-deep radio surveys are an invaluable probe of dust-obscured star formation, but require a clear understanding of the relative contribution from radio active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to be used to their fullest potential. We study the composition of the μJy radio population detected in the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array COSMOS-XS survey based on a sample of 1540 sources detected at 3 GHz  over an area of ∼350 arcmin2. This ultra-deep survey consists of a single pointing in the well-studied COSMOS field at both 3 and 10 GHz and reaches rms sensitivities of 0.53 and 0.41 μJy beam−1, respectively. We find multiwavelength counterparts for 97% of radio sources, based on a combination of near-UV/optical to sub-millimeter data, and through a stacking analysis at optical/near-IR wavelengths we further show that the sources lacking such counterparts are likely to be high-redshift in nature (typical z ∼ 4−5). Utilizing the multiwavelength data over COSMOS, we identify AGNs through a variety of diagnostics and find these to make up 23.2 ± 1.3% of our sample, with the remainder constituting uncontaminated star-forming galaxies. However, more than half of the AGNs exhibit radio emission consistent with originating from star formation, with only 8.8 ± 0.8% of radio sources showing a clear excess in radio luminosity. At flux densities of ∼30 μJy at 3 GHz, the fraction of star formation-powered sources reaches ∼90%, and this fraction is consistent with unity at even lower flux densities. Overall, our findings imply that ultra-deep radio surveys such as COSMOS-XS constitute a highly effective means of obtaining clean samples of star formation-powered radio sources.

We study the radio properties of 706 submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) selected at 870 μm with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array from the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey map of the Ultra Deep Survey field. We detect 273 SMGs at >4σ in deep Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array 1.4 GHz observations, of which a subset of 45 SMGs are additionally detected in 610 MHz Giant Metre-Wave Radio Telescope imaging. We quantify the far-infrared/radio correlation (FIRRC) through parameter q
IR, defined as the logarithmic ratio of the far-infrared and radio luminosity, and include the radio-undetected SMGs through a stacking analysis. We determine a median q
IR = 2.20 ± 0.03 for the full sample, independent of redshift, which places these z ∼ 2.5 dusty star-forming galaxies 0.44 ± 0.04 dex below the local correlation for both normal star-forming galaxies and local ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs). Both the lack of redshift evolution and the offset from the local correlation are likely the result of the different physical conditions in high-redshift starburst galaxies, compared to local star-forming sources. We explain the offset through a combination of strong magnetic fields (B ≳ 0.2 mG), high interstellar medium (ISM) densities and additional radio emission generated by secondary cosmic rays. While local ULIRGs are likely to have similar magnetic field strengths, we find that their compactness, in combination with a higher ISM density compared to SMGs, naturally explains why local and high-redshift dusty star-forming galaxies follow a different FIRRC. Overall, our findings paint SMGs as a homogeneous population of galaxies, as illustrated by their tight and nonevolving far-infrared/radio correlation.

We present a first strong-lensing model for the galaxy cluster RM J121218.5+273255.1 (z = 0.35; hereafter RMJ1212; also known as A1489). This cluster is among the top 0.1% richest clusters in the redMaPPer catalog; it is significantly detected in X-ray and through the Sunyaev–Zel’dovich effect in ROSAT and Planck data, respectively, and its optical luminosity distribution implies a very large lens, following mass-to-light scaling relations. Based on these properties it was chosen for the Webb Medium Deep Fields (WMDF) James Webb Space Telescope/Guaranteed Time Observations program. In preparation for this program, RMJ1212 was recently imaged with Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph (GMOS) on Gemini North and in seven optical and near-infrared bands with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We use these data to map the inner mass distribution of the cluster, uncovering various sets of multiple images. We also search for high-redshift candidates in the data, as well as for transient sources. We find over a dozen high-redshift (z ≳ 6) candidates based on both photometric redshift and the dropout technique. No prominent (≳5σ) transients were found in the data between the two HST visits. Our lensing analysis reveals a relatively large lens with an effective Einstein radius of θ
E ≃ 32 ± 3″ (z

s
 = 2), in broad agreement with the scaling-relation expectations. RMJ1212 demonstrates that powerful lensing clusters can be selected in a robust and automated way following the light-traces-mass assumption.

, associated with the thick disk and halo, respectively. This implies that there should exist a high-velocity thick disk (HVTD) and a metal-rich stellar halo (MRSH) in the Galaxy. The HVTD stars have the same position as the halo in the Toomre diagram but show the same rotational velocity and metallicity as the canonical thick disk. The MRSH stars have basically the same rotational velocity, orbital eccentricity, and position in the Lindblad and Toomre diagram as the canonical halo stars, but they are more metal-rich. Furthermore, the metallicity distribution function of our sample stars are well fitted by a four-Gaussian model, associated with the outer halo, inner halo, MRSH, and HVTD, respectively. Chemical and kinematic properties and age imply that the MRSH and HVTD stars may form in situ.
Tracing Dark Matter Halos with Satellite Kinematics and the Central Stellar Velocity Dispersion of Galaxies

It has been suggested that the central stellar velocity dispersion of galaxies can trace dark matter halo mass directly. We test this hypothesis using a complete spectroscopic sample of isolated galaxies surrounded by faint satellite galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 12. We apply a friends-of-friends algorithm with projected linking length

and radial velocity linking length

km s−1 to construct our sample. Our sample includes 2807 isolated galaxies with 3417 satellite galaxies at

. We divide the sample into two groups based on the primary galaxy color: red and blue primary galaxies separated at

. The central stellar velocity dispersions of the primary galaxies are proportional to the luminosities and stellar masses of the same galaxies. Stacking the sample based on the central velocity dispersion of the primary galaxies, we derive the velocity dispersions of their satellite galaxies, which trace the dark matter halo mass of the primary galaxies. The system velocity dispersion of the satellite galaxies shows a remarkably tight correlation with the central velocity dispersion of the primary galaxies for both red and blue samples. In particular, the slope of the relation is identical to 1 for red primary systems. This tight relation suggests that the central stellar velocity dispersion of galaxies is indeed an efficient and robust tracer for dark matter halo mass. We provide empirical relations between the central stellar velocity dispersion and the dark matter halo mass.

Porcupines of the genusCoendouare among the least studied mammals in the Neotropics. The Stump-tailed Porcupine,Coendou rufescens, is distributed in the Andean region from Colombia and south to Bolivia. Despite its wide distribution, nothing is known about its natural history, besides observation of banana consumption in captivity. Here we present new observations on the feeding habits, diurnal activity, and the use of the tail for support during feeding obtained by means of collaborative (citizen) science. We also comment on its locomotion on land and in trees. We observed five diurnal events ofC. rufescensfeeding on infructescences of trumpet tree (Cecropia angustifoliaTrécul). During the feeding activities, the Stump-tailed Porcupine used the tail for stability and support. These are the first observations of such behavior in the wild for this species and suggest a more diurnal activity for this species which belongs to a group of rodents traditionally considered to be predominantly nocturnal.
The Stoor Hobbit of Guangdong: Goniurosaurus gollum sp. nov., a cave-dwelling Leopard Gecko (Squamata, Eublepharidae) from South China
Authors: Qi Shuo , Wang Jian , Grismer L. Lee , Chen Hong-Hui , Lyu Zhi-Tong , Wang Ying-Yong
Published: November 2020

A new species of the genus Goniurosaurus is described based on three specimens collected from a limestone cave in Huaiji County, Guangdong Province, China. Based on molecular phylogenetic analyses, the new species is nested within the Goniurosaurus yingdeensis species group. However, morphological analyses cannot ascribe it to any known species of that group. It is distinguished from the other three species in the group by a combination of the following characters: scales around midbody 121–128; dorsal tubercle rows at midbody 16–17; presence of 10–11 precloacal pores in males, and absent in females; nuchal loop and body bands immaculate, without black spots; iris orange, gradually darker on both sides. The discovery of yet another limestone-adapted species of Goniurosaurus in Guangdong Province underscores a growing body of evidence for the high biodiversity of limestone habitats and brings into sharp focus the urgent need for their conservation.
Urban Legal Autonomy and (de)Globalization
Authors: Blank Yishai
Published: November 2020

L’importance croissante du pouvoir local à l’échelle globale doit être comprise comme une expression de la place de plus en plus importante de la valeur d’autonomie locale. Elle doit être guidée par une conceptualisation théorique des gouvernements locaux et de leur réglementation juridique, et par une analyse pragmatique des rôles juridiques des villes dans les développements mondiaux actuels. L’autonomie locale peut promouvoir des valeurs importantes telles que la participation démocratique et la responsabilité, le multiculturalisme et le pluralisme, la séparation verticale des pouvoirs et l’efficacité économique. Cependant, une autonomie locale non contrôlée augmente la dynamique de nivellement par le bas, rend la coopération interlocale plus difficile, exacerbe les inégalités économiques et sociales et pourrait radicaliser les tensions religieuses, culturelles, politiques et idéologiques. Cet article cherche à développer cette idée d’autonomie locale en tant que principe juridique, et étudie ses significations possibles dans le contexte de la (dé)mondialisation.
Ville et gouvernementalité néolibérale en Amérique latine
Authors: Quentin Aurélie
Published: November 2020

Cet article vise à contribuer au débat ouvert depuis quelques années en sciences sociales sur la manière dont la gouvernementalité néolibérale agit sur les subjectivités. Il s’intéresse aux liens entre l’accès à la propriété et la production politique des espaces urbains en Amérique latine, considérant celle-ci comme l’un des effets de cette subjectivation. À travers l’étude de la rationalité politique du programme de subvention au logement développé en Équateur à partir de 1998 et d’une enquête menée à Quito auprès d’un groupe de femmes en ayant bénéficié, il cherche à éclairer comment cette modalité d’accès au logement agit concrètement sur la transformation des subjectivités pour produire un affaiblissement de la « volonté générale » des individus. Il montre que cela passe notamment par l’objectivation des « bénéficiaires », la responsabilisation individuelle, la normalisation du rapport au logement et la dépolitisation des formes d’encadrement social.

Un capitán en el «ejército» de Indias en el siglo XVI: Juan de Ribamartín (1521-1576)
Authors: Pereda López Ángela
Published: November 2020

El descubrimiento y conquista del continente americano atrajo a una parte de la población española que todavía veía el ideal del caballero como su forma de vida. Este es el caso de Juan de Ribamartín, un hidalgo nacido en el Valle de Tobalina (Burgos), que se embarcó rumbo a la Nueva España para desarrollar una carrera militar que le permitiera mantener el rango social familiar y obtener un patrimonio acorde con su estatus social. A pesar de sus grandes esfuerzos por servir a la corona durante 35 años y recorrer casi todo el continente, con riesgo de su persona y su hacienda, Ribamartín no fue recompensado como se merecía. Este es un ejemplo de cómo la monarquía española, aun siendo consciente del esfuerzo que supuso para los hombres la defensa de los territorios del nuevo continente, no pudo corresponder en la misma medida.
Biombos mexicanos e identidad criolla
Authors: Baena Zapatero Alberto
Published: November 2020

Los biombos mexicanos surgen en el siglo XVII como una expresión de los gustos e inquietudes de los grupos medios y altos de la sociedad virreinal. La intención de este artículo es desvelar algunos de los secretos que esconden sus pinturas y reflexionar sobre las significaciones que les pudieron dar sus dueños. En este caso se selecciona un grupo de biombos cuyos temas pueden relacionarse con la formación de la identidad criolla en México. El objetivo de la investigación es entender por qué los biombos de la conquista pasaron de ser un tema recurrente a finales del siglo XVII a desaparecer a mitad del siglo XVIII o, dicho de otra forma, por qué algunos asuntos se mantuvieron y evolucionaron mientras otros desaparecieron.
Elites coloniales y sus esclavos armados: política, clientela y autogobierno doméstico en Minas en el siglo XVIII
Authors: Pereira Costa Ana Paula , Carvalho de Almeida Carla María
Published: November 2020

El artículo tiene como objetivo analizar el desempeño de las élites presentes en el distrito de Vila Rica de la capitanía de Minas Gerais en la primera mitad del siglo XVIII en la gestión de sus hogares, entendida aquí en un sentido amplio. Estamos particularmente interesados en investigar las relaciones de estos individuos con grupos subordinados, en particular con esclavos, analizadas como relaciones clientelares verticales. En la investigación se han utilizado dos estrategias metodológicas. Una se refiere al relevamiento de registros parroquiales (matrimonios, bautismos y defunciones) que busca establecer las posibles conexiones y redes de sociabilidad entre los miembros de la élite y los esclavos. La otra estrategia utilizada para develar tales relaciones verticales es recuperar pruebas más dispersas, ubicadas en la documentación suelta del Archivo Histórico de Ultramar sobre la capitanía de Minas Gerais.
El físico Enrique Loedel Palumbo en el corredor científico Montevideo-Buenos Aires-La Plata: 1920-1930
Authors: Gangui Alejandro , Ortiz Eduardo L.
Published: November 2020

En este trabajo consideramos la atmósfera progresista y liberal del Montevideo de fines del siglo XIX y en ella la trayectoria del joven estudiante de ciencias Enrique Loedel Palumbo. Nos ocupamos luego de sus actividades en Argentina, donde se trasladó para estudiar Física en un nuevo y excelentemente equipado Instituto de Física en la Universidad de La Plata; en donde eventualmente llegaría a ser una figura destacada. Inicialmente Loedel Palumbo se ocupó del estudio de la estructura de moléculas complejas con base en sus propiedades ópticas, eléctricas y magnéticas. Más tarde tuvo la oportunidad de dialogar con Einstein cuando este visitó Argentina en 1925; como resultado de esos intercambios publicó el primero de una serie de trabajos sobre la Teoría de la Relatividad, que aparecieron en algunas de las principales revistas científicas de Alemania. Loedel Palumbo se integró plenamente a la vida intelectual de su país adoptivo, llegando a ser considerado como uno de los físicos y filósofos de la ciencia más destacados de la Argentina de su tiempo. Es un ejemplo interesante de la profunda interpenetración de la vida cultural de Uruguay y Argentina en la primera mitad del siglo XX. Compartió también con sus colegas argentinos las consecuencias de vivir en un complejo período histórico.
Salud, inmigración y ayuda mutua en Argentina: el Centro Gallego de Buenos Aires entre la crisis y la emergencia de un nuevo sistema sanitario (1930-1950)
Authors: Da Orden María Liliana
Published: November 2020

Este artículo pone en diálogo la historiografía de las migraciones europeas a la Argentina con las investigaciones de historia de la salud a través del análisis del caso del Centro Gallego de la ciudad de Buenos Aires, la sociedad mutual y étnica de mayor relevancia en el país desde los años treinta del siglo pasado. Utilizando fuentes cuantitativas y cualitativas de archivos públicos y privados, se analizan las características de los servicios sanitarios brindados por la institución, la acción de sus dirigentes en la gestión del área, así como la composición de los socios y sus demandas en salud. Los resultados llevan a reconsiderar el papel del sistema mutualista en la época de expansión del sistema público de salud, así como el rol que tuvo la etnicidad en los sectores medios y populares urbanos todavía signados por el origen migratorio mucho después de la oleada de masas
Que peut apporter la théorie de l’attachement aux psychologues du conseil ?
Authors: Mallet Pascal
Published: November 2020

Cet article examine l’intérêt que la théorie de l’attachement (T.A.) pourrait présenter pour la psychologie du conseil. Dans une première partie, on rappelle comment la T.A. a été inspirée par trois sources : psychologie clinique et pathologique, éthologie, et cybernétique. L’évolution des recherches sur la T.A. est exposée, en particulier son intérêt croissant pour les différences interindividuelles de développement socio-émotionnel au-delà de la prime enfance. Dans une deuxième partie, on commence par envisager les effets favorables que pourraient avoir des attachements confiants aux parents sur la découverte des formations scolaires et professionnelles par les adolescents, et sur leur engagement dans celles-ci. On rapporte ensuite les recommandations que des psychologues du conseil ont tirées de la T.A. pour la conduite de l’entretien, en explicitant certaines des métaphores qui lui sont empruntées en cette occasion. On termine en soulignant combien la prise en compte des aspects socio-émotionnels dans la conduite de l’entretien et dans l’examen de la situation du consultant accroît la possibilité de mobiliser chez lui les stratégies de formation les plus pertinentes.
