A SYNTACTIC ERROR ANALYSIS OF EFL ARAB LEARNERS: THE CASE STUDY OF PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN SAUDI ARABIA
Authors: Altamimi Wejdan Abdullah , Alsager Haroon N.
Published: January 2025

Primary school students might find the process of learning syntax
confusing and complex presumably due to being unaware of the syntactic errors
they make at this early stage. Yet, despite the complexity of such an issue, scant
research has been conducted in the Saudi context. Therefore, the present study
employs a mixed-method approach to examine the developmental sequences of
acquiring syntactic rules and investigate the syntactic errors made by 60 EFL
primary school Arab students in a Saudi international school using spoken
interviews, written tests, and in-class observations. After analyzing the data
quantitatively and qualitatively, it was found that the most common syntactic
errors produced by EFL Arab primary school students are related to tense
formation, subject-verb agreement, missing articles, conjunctions, pronouns to
infinitives, and word order syntactic patterns. Furthermore, verb tense, articles,
and copula have been determined as transfer errors. In addition, older children
make fewer syntactic errors compared to younger children. Despite the
significant results, more samples are needed to make them generalizable.
Keywords: Error analysis, syntactic errors, developmental sequences, EFL.

Published: January 2025

Pasal 8 ayat (2) Undang-Undang Nomor 48 Tahun 2009 tentang Kekuasaan Kehakiman menyebutkan bahwa hakim juga dapat wajib mempertimbangkan sifat baik dan jahat pada diri terdakwa selama persidangan. Dasar Pertimbangan Hakim Dalam Memutus Putusan Nomor: 424/Pid.B/2022/PN Tjk Dan Putusan Nomor: 592/Pid.B/2023/PN Lbp adalah dengan memperhatikan fakta-fakta hukum mendakwa terdakwa sebagaimana diatur dalam Pasal 170 ayat (2) ke-1e, 2e KUHPidana. Pertimbangan terpenuhinya unsur Barang siapa dan dengan terang-terangan dan dengan tenaga bersama atau bersama-sama menggunakan kekerasan terhadap orang yang mengakibatkan luka berat. Perbuatan yang dilakukan para terdakwa merupakan suatu kesengajaan sebagai maksud. Hakim tidak menemukan hal-hal yang dapat melepaskan para Terdakwa dari pertanggungjawaban pidana baik sebagai alasan pembenar dan atau alasan pemaaf. Tidak adanya pertimbangan non yuridis yang dapat meringankan terdakwa. Disparitas dalam pidana terhadap pelaku tindak pidana penganiayaan secara bersama-sama pada Putusan Nomor: 424/Pid.B/2022/PN Tjk dan Putusan Nomor: 592/Pid.B/2023/PN Lbp adalah terlihat dari Putusan yang dijatuhkan yaitu hukuman pidana penjara selama 2 (dua) tahun dan 8 (delapan) bulan pada perkara Putusan Nomor: 424/Pid.B/2022/PN Tjk sedangkan pada perkara Putusan Nomor: 592/Pid.B/2023/PN Lbp di pidana penjara masing-masing selama 6 (enam) tahun. Dengan kasus yang sama diatas, adanya disparitas pada putusan hakim pada dua perkara diatas. Hakim dalam memutuskan suatu perkara mempunyai keyakinan serta pertimbangan-pertimbangan yang berbeda-beda, Setiap orang memiliki tingkat rasa keadilan dan pandangan tentang keadilan yang berbeda-beda begitu pun dengan hakim. Selain itu tidak adanya pedoman dalam pemidanaan juga merupakan salah satu faktor yang melatarbelakangi terjadinya disparitas pemidanaan. Faktor lainnya dalam disparitas pidana dalam putusan hakim adalah faktor dari terdakwa, karena dalam memutus suatu perkara, hakim tidak terlepas dari keadaan terdakwa, seperti keadaan sosial dan keadaan ekonomi terdakwa dan sikap terdakwa selama jalannya persidangan, apakah terdakwa bersikap sopan dalam persidangan atau tidak.
Understanding perceptions of teachers and pupils towards corporal punishment for pupils with disabilities in primary schools in Tanzania
Authors: Zuberi Thabiti , Seni Abdallah Jacob , Sungwa Reuben
Published: January 2025

In Tanzanian primary schools, corporal punishment is legally permitted and widely practiced as a disciplinary method, often extending to pupils with disabilities. This study explores the perceptions of teachers and pupils towards the use of corporal punishment on pupils with disabilities, focusing on its implications for social justice and inclusive education. A qualitative approach, employing a phenomenological design, was used to understand the lived experiences of the participants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with two head teachers and eight subject teachers, as well as focus group discussions involving ten pupils with disabilities, all purposively sampled. Thematic analysis revealed that corporal punishment is commonly justified by teachers as a means of addressing indiscipline, despite its negative impact on pupils’ emotional well-being and academic engagement. Some teachers recognized the contradiction between corporal punishment and inclusive education principles, highlighting its violation of the rights of pupils with disabilities. Pupils described feeling marginalized and fearful, highlighting the adverse effects of this practice on their sense of belonging and learning environment. The study recommends a shift towards alternative disciplinary approaches that uphold the rights and dignity of all pupils, particularly those with disabilities. It emphasizes the need for targeted professional development programs to equip teachers with non-violent strategies for managing classroom behavior. Furthermore, it calls for the enforcement of inclusive education policies and the creation of support networks to foster socially just and equitable learning environments. By addressing these issues, this study contributes to the discourse on inclusive education and social justice, advocating for systemic reforms to align Tanzanian educational practices with global standards.
Relationships between Teacher Qualification, Teacher Behaviour/Practices and Teacher Skills/Expertise
Authors: Sie Charles Kwabena , Chonga Kipo
Published: January 2025

The central aim of this research was to identity the relationships between the perceived teacher quality constructs of elementary school mathematics instructors. The research employed a purposive sampling approach to select 50 mathematics teachers in the Bole District of the Savannah Region in Ghana to participate in the study. Specifically, 50 mathematics teachers were given questionnaires on teacher skills/expertise, teacher behaviour/practices and teacher qualification to establish the relationships between these variables. The results from the research with a correlation coefficient, r = 0.443 and a P-value of 0.001, revealed that teacher skills/expertise was statistically significantly correlated with Teacher behaviour/practices. The results from the mathematics teachers did not show significant relationships between teacher qualification and the other parameters of the study. This study showed that the interconnectedness between teacher skills/expertise and teacher behaviour/practices is a cornerstone of effective education. The implication of this study is that teachers’ academic qualifications do not always guarantee comprehensive knowledge of teaching.  A comprehensive knowledge of teaching requires the acquisition of the three competencies (professional values and attitudes, professional knowledge and professional practice) as contained in the National Teachers standards. This study has impact on the training and organization of professional development programs for mathematics teachers in Ghana and other countries with similar contexts. The researchers recommend that teacher training institutions should focus on the training of teachers to acquire the competencies necessary for effective teaching and learning. Teacher professional development opportunities should be made available to teachers as a way of developing their professional values and attitudes, professional knowledge and professional practices that are required to teach effectively.
How can the connection model for integrating Information and Communication Technology solve four major grade 12 accounting problems?
Authors: Sithole Nosihle Veronica
Published: January 2025

There are several problems that affects the quality of teaching and learning in accounting in secondary schools. In grade 12 particularly, English language misunderstanding, limited advance teaching skills and abilities, restricted teaching times and lack of parental support have been observed as major problems that hinders quality teaching and causes poor academic performance. Therefore, this study aimed to demonstrate how the connection model for integration of Information and Communication Technology can solve these four major grade 12 accounting problems. Actor Network Theory (ANT) informed this empirical inquiry. In addition, critical paradigm and Participatory Action Research were used to understand the research phenomenon. Six teachers were purposively sampled to participate in the discussion and the data collected was analysed using a content analysis. Results showed that connection model can solve the four major problem in grade 12 by offering opportunities of communicating in one language and using auto-correct to improve vocabulary. Through reinforcing technological knowledge and skills for new pedagogical ideas. Furthermore, by providing an alternative convenient learning method and connecting teachers with parents via WhatsApp. Considering the above results, the study suggested that connection model must be more embraced in accounting. The model must be documented and made available to accounting teachers to also use it for ICT integration in accounting. It is recommended that the connection model should be developed into an app for accounting.
Approaches to assessing the sustainability of territorial communi-ties

Published: January 2025

Abstract. The article is devoted to exploring approaches and identifying sustainable development indicators for territorial communities. The ability to apply sustainable development principles in managerial decision-making regarding the development of territorial communities requires the establishment of priorities or goals for sustainable development. These priorities, in turn, must be based on criteria that can be measured and assessed.
Currently, sustainable development approaches are among the fundamental ones in preparing funding proposals for territorial communities or evaluating them from the perspective of potential investors. However, even though certain territorial communities actively use the defined term when preparing proposals or presenting the community to the public, few can accurately determine which specific indicators need to be calculated.
In the practice of managing a territorial community, various indicator systems are widely used to assess the state of a particular sphere of activity (or development direction) of the community from a chosen perspective (which underpins the formation of the indicator system).
An analysis of the literature revealed that there are sufficient approaches offering suggestions for defining indicators that can characterize the sustainable development of a community. The article proposes using the Bellagio principles to develop an approach for quantitative calculations. It also suggests the application of mathematical methods to calculate certain indicators.
The proposed approach includes, taking into account sectoral characteristics, groups of indicators for ensuring the livelihood of the population, territorial development, and entrepreneurial development, as well as indicators reflecting the social and environmental responsibility of the territorial community. This set of indicators can be used as criteria for substantiating managerial decisions in territorial communities

Authors: Drashti Mehta  , Dr. Rocky Upadhyay  , Krishna Jariwala
Published: January 2025

Speech recognition, an essential component of natural language processing (NLP), plays a pivotal role in enhancing communication and human-computer interaction. This paper reviews the advancements, challenges, and applications of speech recognition, natural language understanding (NLU), and chatbot technologies. Current speech recognition systems utilize techniques like Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) and Hidden Markov Models (HMM) to address linguistic errors, gender recognition failures, and inaccurate voice recognition. Applications such as voice assistants offer continuous interaction capabilities, enabling users, including those with disabilities, to perform tasks like web searches and document preparation.
Additionally, we examine vulnerabilities in voice assistants, particularly in NLU components like Intent Classifiers, which can misinterpret user inputs and pose security risks. The transformative impact of deep neural networks (DNN) on speech recognition since 2010 is also discussed, alongside their application to fields like machine translation and image captioning. Furthermore, this paper highlights the evolution of chatbots, integrating NLU platforms like Google DialogFlow and IBM Watson, to deliver intelligent, adaptive interactions. By addressing challenges in intent recognition and system integration, this review underscores the potential of AI-driven solutions to revolutionize speech-based applications.

Control del cuerpo y narrativa: análisis semiótico interpretativo de la obra autobiográfica Platonic Sex
Authors: Benavides Torres Evelin Nataly
Published: January 2025

In this article, the autobiographical story Platonic Sex by Ai Ijima will be analyzed from the perspective of interpretive semiotics (2004), in which we find ideological aspects, social conventions, discursive practices, traditions, norms and values that revolve mainly around the narrative of the body as a space of control and social power. This article is based on a theoretical approach to the interpretative semiotic analysis of the linguistic signs of the work, where the encounter of an actor with the values of the cultural system of the Japanese community in the nineties and in the beginning of the two thousand is made possible. The aim of this proposal is to analyze and interpret how Ai Ijima's narrative is a framework , which the meaning of a social phenomenon is produced, interpreted and communicated. In this work, it is evident how a woman's body, while objectified and manipulated by a lucrative sex industry, is also a motive for contempt and rejection by a society that values women for fulfilling social norms and expectations.

Published: January 2025

The European clinical guideline for the management of non-specific chronic pain recommends manual therapy as a treatment option. However, evidence shows that passive treatments for chronic low back pain have lost ground compared to active exercises, which are recommended for both treatment and prevention of low back pain. Furthermore, there is still no consensus on the best technique or treatment; however, some evidence has shown excellent results, including spinal manipulation technique and therapeutic exercises (general exercises and motor control). The objetive of this systematic review was to evaluate the effectiveness of manual therapy techniques compared to therapeutic exercises for the relief of chronic low back pain. A systematic review of literature from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) used 5 databases: Medline, Scopus, PubMed, Pedro, and Cochrane, published in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Search terms included: low back pain, spinal manual therapy, non-specific pain, exercises for low back pain, chronic pain. Results Four eligible studies were found after selecting titles, abstracts, and full texts according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Moderate evidence was found that exercises have a slight significant improvement over spinal manipulation therapy and control groups with sham physiotherapy in the short term, but not in the medium or long term, where spinal manipulation therapy showed a slight improvement over exercises and the sham control group. This systematic review concludes that both manual therapy and supervised exercises provide positive outcomes for improving the well-being of patients suffering from musculoskeletal injuries

One of the least studied monogeneosis diseases to date is carp diplostomosis. Outbreaks of this disease have been increasingly reported in fish farms in the western region of Ukraine. Moreover, this parasite is most commonly found in larger quantities in young fish. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the drug “Brovermectin-Granulat™” and ground milk thistle fruits on the levels of lipid peroxidation products and the activity of the enzymatic component of the antioxidant defense system in the hepatopancreas of one-year-old scale carp infected with Eudiplozoon nipponicum. The research was conducted in the pond fish farms of the State Enterprise “Rybgosp “Halytsky” (now LLC “Rybgosp “Burshtynskyi”) in the Rohatyn district of Ivano-Frankivsk region and in the private farm “Dobrotvirskyi fish factory” in the Kamyanka-Buzka district of Lviv region, located in the warm waters of cooling ponds of the Burshtyn and Dobrotvir thermal power plants. One-year-old scale carp (with a body weight of 45–47 g), infected with Eudiplozoon nipponicum, were selected for the study. To examine the effects of “Brovermectin-Granulat™” and milk thistle fruits on lipid peroxidation products and the antioxidant system enzymes in the hepatopancreas, we formed three groups of fish, with 6 specimens in each group: a control group – fish infected with monogeneans, an experimental group I – fish treated with the antiparasitic drug “Brovermectin-Granulat™” (at a dose of 60 mg/kg body weight), experimental group II – fish treated with “Brovermectin-Granulat™” (at a dose of 60 mg/kg body weight) and ground milk thistle fruits (5 % of the compound feed was supplemented with ground milk thistle fruits by granulation). The study of peroxide processes and the antioxidant system status in the hepatopancreas of one-year-old scale carp infected with Eudiplozoon nipponicum, and after the application of the above-mentioned drugs, showed that in the experimental groups of fish, a reduction in the levels of lipid peroxidation products was observed. It was also noted that the studied supplement based on ground milk thistle fruits had a stimulating effect on the antioxidant status of the fish, as evidenced by significantly higher activity of catalase, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase in the hepatopancreas of the experimental fish.
The impact of nutrition on dairy cattle productivity: sustainable development strategies and advanced technologies
Authors: Vovchuk P. O.
Published: January 2025

The increasing demand for dairy products in the context of climate change and limited resources necessitates the implementation of innovative approaches to feeding cattle. Modern milk production faces numerous challenges, including the need to enhance productivity, ensure high milk quality, and adhere to the principles of environmental sustainability. Research demonstrates that the use of protein supplements and inulin in cow diets significantly improves milk quality and quantity, enhancing its fatty acid profile, antioxidant properties, and coagulation characteristics, which are particularly important for cheese production. At the same time, unbalanced diets can increase the risk of metabolic diseases, such as ketosis and acidosis, adversely affecting the health and productivity of cows. Proper protein balancing, including the optimal ratio of rumen-degradable and rumen-undegradable proteins, helps mitigate these risks. This approach supports stable lactation, reduces the frequency of electrolyte disorders during the postpartum period, and lowers the incidence of hypocalcemia. These methods are especially effective during peak lactation periods, when the demand for protein and energy in animals is heightened. Grazing systems also have a significant positive impact on animal health, particularly by reducing the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders. However, insufficient control of grazing can increase the risk of parasitic infections. Moreover, the inclusion of inulin in cow diets enhances digestion, raises the level of conjugated linoleic acid in milk, and reduces oxidative stress. In turn, this ensures prolonged preservation of milk quality, improving its organoleptic properties. The adoption of sustainable development technologies, such as the use of protein supplements and inulin, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, minimizes the use of natural resources like water and land, and optimizes the economic efficiency of production. Consequently, these technologies not only enhance the environmental sustainability of the sector but also contribute to its long-term stability, ensuring high productivity levels even under conditions of global climate change. Future research should focus on developing new feeding methods that combine high productivity with environmental responsibility, ensuring the conservation of natural resources and reducing the negative impact on the environment.

Published: January 2025

Based on the results of theoretical and practical research, the article defines the ecological and clinical aspects of human physical and mental health in connection with the activity of the thyroid gland in normal and pathological conditions. In general, quantitative and qualitative indicators of health as a bio-psycho-social and morpho-functional phenomenon are closely related to humoral and nervous mechanisms of regulation, as well as the body's reactivity, taking into account age and gender characteristics. Special attention should be paid to studies on the influence of thyroid activity on the formation of group reactivity (constitution), as well as nonspecific reactivity, including stress as a general adaptation syndrome. At the same time, the conditions of potential and real biological and military threats, as well as various forms of human activity, including the educational process, are accompanied by physiological and psychological stress, which requires appropriate interdisciplinary research on human stress resistance as a significant component of physical and mental health. In this regard, during the training, methods for diagnosing the body's stress resistance were tested according to certain morphological indicators and indices, taking into account the activity of the thyroid gland and its functional influence on the formation of the human constitution. In addition, taking into account environmental and social conditions, the potential levels of interdisciplinary research on the comprehensive assessment of human physical and mental health indicators are identified.

Our study aimed to identify the influence of the age of sows using traditional and intrauterine insemination methods in the conditions of industrial pork production technology on their fertility and fecundity, as well as on the efficiency of artificial insemination operators. No difference was found between the animals of the control and experimental groups regarding the average fertility of sows. At the same time, regarding the fertilization coefficient of replacement pigs, the animals of the experimental group significantly (P ≤ 0.05) exceeded the analogs of the control group by 0.88 %. In animals with two or more farrowing, a tendency was observed to decrease fertilization by 0.28 %, and in animals to which sperm was introduced by the post-cervical method. It was found that there was no significant difference between the indicators of the number of piglets born and the multiparity of sows between the groups. At the same time, a tendency towards a slightly higher number of stillborn piglets was found in sows inseminated by the postcervical method. There was also no significant difference between animals inseminated by different methods regarding piglet survival to weaning and their number in the litter during this period. It was found that animals inseminated by intrauterine insemination increased multiparity by 2.9 % after the second farrowing, by 5.6 % after the third farrowing, and by 13.1 % after the fourth. In comparison, after the fifth, such excess decreased to 5.5 %; after the sixth, it was 8.4 %; and after the seventh, it was 10.2 %. Animals inseminated by the traditional method of insemination tended to decrease in multiparity throughout their entire reproductive life. Therefore, after the second farrowing, it decreased by 2.0 %, after the third by 1.2 %, after the fourth by 3.2 %, while after the fifth,h there was an increase compared to the first farrowing by 2.0 %, after the sixth only by 0.8 % and after the seventh there was a decrease by 0.3 %. It was proved that the serial number of the reproductive cycle of sows significantly influenced the total number of piglets at birth by 1.50 %, the multiparity index by 5.51 %, the number of stillborn piglets per farrowing and the number of weaned piglets by 14.47 %. The insemination method factor and its interaction with the farrowing number of farrowing had no significant effect on any of the studied indicators. On average, the process of detecting heat and insemination of sows took 7.5 minutes per sow with traditional insemination, while the post-cervical method, which does not require stimulation of the pig during insemination and allows for the forced introduction of sperm into the uterus, reduces this time by 4.3 minutes, or 57.3 %, and reduces the total time spent on insemination of sows by 62.9 %.

Виявлено поступове збільшення кількості листків у кукурудзи від 9,8–10,4 шт. на одну рослину в ранньостиглого гібриду ДМС Лорд до 12,5–13,5 шт. у середньопізнього ДМС Шатл, що чітко пов'язано з біологічними особливостями гібридів. Також встановлено, що внесення мінеральних добрив сприяє збільшенню кількості листків на 7,50–10,60%. Площа листкової поверхні кукурудзи залежала від кількості листків на рослині. Найменша площа спостерігалася на контрольних варіантах і становила 319,9–528,8 см². Застосування мінеральних добрив, особливо в дозі N60P60K60, спричинило приріст площі листків на 25,3–28,3%. Збільшення густоти рослин до 60 тис. га викликало тенденцію до зменшення площі листкової поверхні на 7,3–9,2% через підвищену конкуренцію між рослинами. Внесення добрив у дозах N30–60P30–60K30–60 призвело до збільшення вмісту хлорофілу в листках кукурудзи порівняно з контролем (SPAD 50,6–55,4) на 2,6–13,9 одиниць SPAD, або 4,10–24,70%. Було також помічено, що підвищена доза мінеральних добрив N60P60K60 значно підвищила вміст хлорофілу в ранньостиглому гібриді ДМС Лорд і середньоранньому ДМС Прайм порівняно із середньостиглим ДМС 3015 і середньопізнім ДМС Шатл. Найоптимальнішою густотою для різних груп стиглості кукурудзи виявилася густота 50–60 тис. рослин на гектар, оскільки вона забезпечувала максимальні біометричні показники та врожайність зерна на рівні 4,60–6,02 т/га та 4,38–5,81 т/га відповідно. Висновки. Для умов Північного Степу України рекомендується висівати середньостиглі гібриди кукурудзи за густоти стояння 50 тис. рослин на гектар із внесенням добрив N30–60P30–60K30–60, зокрема гібрид ДМС 3015, який демонстрував максимальну врожайність 6,93–6,02 т/га.

Метою досліджень було дослідити доцільність та потенційну ефективність використання сирої листостеблової маси редьки олійної у якості сировини для отримання біогазу з огляду на гідротермічні умови вегетації та сформовані відповідно їм рівні біопродуктивності та базового біохімічного складу у форматі дослідження можливості комплексного біогазово-сидераційного застосування редьки олійної. Методи. Дослідження було проведено впродовж 2020–2024 років на базі дослідного поля Вінницького НАУ на сірих лісових грунтах з середнім потенціалом родючості. Повторність у досліді чотирьохразова. Розміщення варіантів – систематичне у два яруси. Дослід передбачав співставний аналіз показників біопродуктивності, гідротермічних умов вегетації з даними базових показників біогазової продуктивності визначених за рахунок лабораторного модельного дослідження. Результати. Визначена можливість використання листостеблової маси редьки олійної вирощеною в умовах літнього строку сівби як варіант поширеного її сидерального та біоконсерваційного її використання для виробництва біогазу при застосуванні класичного процесу сумісної анаеробної ферментації із дигестатним інокулянтом за звичайного температурного режиму інкубації. Доведено можливість досягнення 90% рівня ефективної реалізації біогазового потенціалу ферментації целюлозовмісної агробіомаси (у значенні 300 лN/кг органічної сухої речовини) за умов помірного рівня зволоження при ГТК в інтервалі 1,2–1,5 за температурного режиму в інтервалі 17–18 оС. Досліджено характер біогазового продуктивності листостеблової маси редьки олійної на підставі динамічних графіків щодобової фіксації та визначено базові особливості цього процесу з огляду на їх врахування у практичних аспектах виробництва біогазу. Висновки. Листостеблова маса редьки олійної отримана за вирощування при літньому (проміжному) строці сівби є ефективним компонентом базової сировини для біогазового виробництва у системі коферментації із дигестатними варіантами інокуляції із досяжним інтервалом біогазового потенціалу на рівні 250– 300 лN/кг органічної сухої речовини. Лімітуючими факторами такого рівня продуктивності у першу чергу є гідротермічні режими періоду вегетації до фази цвітіння. Оптимальність досягається за помірного рівня літніх середньодобових температур (17–18 оС) та зволоження (ГТК 1,2–1,5).
Will Increasing Residential Density Decrease Parking Availability? A Method for Practitioners.
Authors: Amos Dave
Published: January 2025

Cities in the United States aim to increase the supply of affordable housing in low-density areas, but residents are concerned about the availability of parking as density increases. This study measures on- and off-street parking vacancy in three neighborhoods zoned single-family “R-1” and three zoned moderate-density “R-2” to understand if increasing housing density reduces parking vacancy. Results indicate that while there is more vacancy in R-1 neighborhoods, the R-2 neighborhoods still have significant excess capacity. Furthermore, the method for finding this result is low-cost and potentially useful to local planners interested in increasing residential density while addressing local concerns.
Estética de cuidado y voces femeninas de la guerra de Malvinas en Las Aspirantesde Gretel Suárez (2018) y Nosotras también estuvimos de Federico Strifezzo (2021).
Authors:   Universidad Nacional de Avellaneda, Perera Verónica
Published: January 2025

El artículo indaga en los vínculos entre voces femeninas, memorias feministas, trabajo de cuidado y creaciones estéticas sobre la guerra de Malvinas, ocurrida entre Argentina y Gran Bretaña en 1982. A partir de la noción de montaje que Didi-Huberman (2015)toma de Benjamin y de estética de cuidado que Mihaela Mihai (2022) desarrolla para estudiar las memorias de la violencia estatal, el artículo analiza, compara y contrasta Las Aspirantesde Gretel Suarez (2018) y Nosotras también estuvimosde Federico Strifezzo (2021), películas documentales creadas al calor de los feminismos populares de esos años y de la valoración política del hacer de las mujeres. Explora conjuntamente imágenes (creadas en los documentales o provenientes de otros archivos), testimonios (recogidos con la cámara o en entrevistas personales o públicas) junto a textos judiciales, con la intención de complejizar el espacio memorial de las mujeres que participaron en el conflicto del Atlántico Sur y las figuras que lo pueblan.Desde aquí emergen tanto memorias vulnerables, espectrales, creadas desde los márgenes y alejadas de toda heroicidad;como memorias de mujeres masculinas que desde adentro del espacio memorial actúan el deseo de pertenencia a la institución militar.
Nuevas narrativas en el cine documental argentino sobre Malvinas de los años recientes. Documental, ficción y comedia detectivesca en Telma, el cine y el soldadode Brenda Taubin (2022).
Authors:   Universidad Nacional de San Martín, Caresani Luciana
Published: January 2025

La guerra de Malvinas de 1982 entre la República Argentina y el Reino Unido fue un acontecimiento que dejó marcas en la memoria colectiva de la sociedad argentina. A diferencia de un cine argentino sobre Malvinas centrado mayormente en las historias de ex combatientes, en los últimos años surgieron films documentales con narrativas basadas en relatos de los civiles que vivieron la guerra desde el continente, y que permitieron representar las memorias de este conflicto desde otras perspectivas. En este trabajo realizaré un análisis crítico e interpretativo del film Telma, el cine y el soldado (2022) de Brenda Taubin, en donde la construcción del personaje heroico está centrado en Telma, una mujer de 75 años que junto a sus compañeros jubilados de un cineclub decide emprender la búsqueda de un joven soldado desconocido, que durante la guerra de Malvinas se escribió cartas con su hija adolescente. El film, que establece cruces entre distintos géneros cinematográficos y que trabaja con material de archivo de 1982, propone no solo abordar las formas del recuerdo y la imaginación sobre la guerra en el presente, sino también pensar al cine contemporáneo como espacio y dispositivo que vehiculiza distintos modos de afectos en la comunid.
Adolfo Bellocq y la marginalidad bonaerense: una interpretación visual de El matadero, de Esteban Echeverría.
Authors:   Universidad de Sonora, Avechuco Cabrera Daniel
Published: January 2025

El presente artículo explora El matadero ilustrado por Adolfo Bellocq (1899-1972), el pintor argentino miembro de los llamados Artistas del Pueblo, un grupo de pintores, grabadores e ilustradores argentinos que alcanzaron la plenitud durante la década de los veinte y que se caracterizaron, entre otras cosas, por una concepción social del arte. Se partió del objetivo de analizar, a través de las nociones del ilustrador como crítico y de la tradición de representaciones visuales, cómo Bellocq dialoga con la fuente literaria para proponer una interpretación visual de la marginalidad a partir de la figuración de los miembros de comunidades afrodescendientes. Se concluye que de este diálogo deriva una interpretación visual que subvierte, sutilmente, el valor que el texto le da a negros y mulatos, a los que trata como una delas manifestaciones de la barbarie.
