Authors: Santana Ingrid do Bom Parto Araújo , Figueiredo Nivaldo de
Published: June 2021

O presente estudo tem como objetivo definir se a diversidade local é um dos fatores que levam ao sucesso no estabelecimento de moitas da espécie exótica invasora Crotalaria retusa. O estudo foi realizado nas dunas costeiras da Ilha do Maranhão, no trecho entre as praias de São Marcos e Araçagy. Para tanto, foram selecionadas moitas amostradas pelo método de parcelas múltiplas de Mueller-dombois & Ellenberg, no qual foi amostrado com parcelas de 1mx1m, 40% da cobertura vegetal no interior e no entono das moitas de C. retusa, sendo posteriormente calculados os Índices de Valor de Importância de Cobertura (IVCi) para cada espécie botânica amostrada, diversidade de Shannon – Wienner (H’) e Equabilidade de Pielou (J). A riqueza total de espécies foi de 101 espécies (76 no interior e 81 no entorno). As espécies com maior IVCi no interior e no entorno foram, respectivamente, C. retusa (124,97) e espécimes da família Poaceae (104,83). A diversidade foi de H’ = 2,58 no interior e H’= 2,59 no entorno, enquanto que a equabilidade foi de J=0,59 (no interior e no entorno). Observou-se que a riqueza de espécies no interior da moita aumenta à medida que a cobertura de C. retusa diminui, demostrando que a espécie botânica invasora pode interferir na ocorrência das espécies nativas.BIOLOGICAL INVASION BY Crotalaria retusa L. (FABACEAE) IN DUNE AREAS IN SÃO LUÍS, MARANHÃO, NORTHEAST BRAZILABSTRACTThe present study aims to analyze the structural arrangement of the inside and around of the Crotalaria retusa clumps in dune areas of Ilha do Maranhão. The study was realized out in the coastal dunes of Ilha do Maranhão, in the stretch between the beaches of São Marcos and Araçagi. Therefore, clumps of vegetation sampled by the multiple plot method were selected, in which it wasa sample with plots of 1m2, 40% of the vegetation cover inside and around the C. retusa clumps, and the were calculated Importance Value (IV) for each a sampled botanical species, Shannon – Wienner diversity (H’) e Pielou Equability (J). The total species richness was 101 species (76 inland and 81 inthe around). The species C. retusa had the highest VI in the inside (124,97) and in the around it was the second with the highest VI (59,40). The diversity was H’ = 2,58 nats.m2 on the inside and H’=2,59 nats.m2 on the around, while the equability was J=0,59 (in the inside and the around). It was observed that the species richness inside the clump increases as the coverage of C. retusa decreases, showing the invasive botanical species could interfere with the occurrence of native species.Keywords: Biological contamination; Invasive species; Coastal dunes; Coverage index; Importance value.

A STOP FOR A SNACK: apparent humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) feeding behavior and association with gillnets during migration off south-eastern Brazil
Authors: Siciliano Salvatore , Cardoso Júlio , Francisco Arlaine , Moreira Sérgio Carvalho
Published: June 2021

Baleias-jubarte (Megaptera novaeangliae) migram anualmente desde as águas frias dos polos, onde alimentam-se de krill e pequenos peixes, em direção a regiões tropicais e subtropicais em busca de ambientes favoráveis para reprodução e cria de filhotes. Ainda pouco conhecidos são os casos de baleias-jubarte alimentando-se em áreas de reprodução. Nesse trabalho relatamos as primeiras observações em campo de uma baleia juvenil – yearling, em provável comportamento de forrageamento buscando por prováveis crustáceos ou cefalópodes em curtos mergulhos fundos. São relatadas outras observações semelhantes nas quais das baleias pareciam aproximar-se de redes de emalhe, provavelmente atraídas por peixes ali enredados e disponíveis. Considera-se que em alguns desses casos a aproximação das baleias em direção às redes tenha causado emalhamentos, que pelo menos em um caso o exemplar libertou-se das redes. Em outros casos as redes podem ter causados ferimentos e lesões nas baleias-jubarte. Recomenda-se um acompanhamento dessas interações pela costa brasileira a longo prazo para uma melhor avaliação dessas interações.Palavras-chave: Baleia-jubarte; Enredamento; Forrageamento; Brasil.ABSTRACTHumpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) migrate annually from the cold waters of the poles, where they feed on krill, towards subtropical and tropical regions in search of favorable environments for breeding and calving. Cases of humpback whales feeding on breeding grounds are still poorly known in the world. This study reports field observations of a juvenile whale - yearling, in Brazilian waters, with evidence of foraging behavior, in search of prey that seemed to be prawn or squid, during short dives. In addition, other similar observations are reported in southeastern Brazil in which the whales showed interest and approach gillnets, probably attracted by entangled fish. In some of these cases, it is considered that whale approaching towards the nets has caused entanglements, and in at least one case the specimen freed itself from nets. In other cases, nets may have caused humpback whale injuries. A follow-up of these interactions throughout the Brazilian coast is recommendedfor a better evaluation of these interactions with fishing nets, since they may represent a new form of behavior of these whales in their migratory period.

As macrófitas aquáticas desempenham importantes funções no ambiente aquático, contribuindo para a estruturação ambiental e para o equilíbrio biológico. O presente estudo teve como objetivo conhecer a riqueza biológica e a distribuição de macrófitas aquáticas no rio Guaribas, município de Picos, Piauí, corpo d’água do semiárido fortemente alterado por ações antrópicas. Para isso, amostras foram coletadas mensalmente em cinco estações no trecho urbano do referido rio, no período de setembro/2018 a fevereiro/2019. Para a coleta dos vegetais utilizou-se um quadrante com lados de 25 cm (0,0625 m2). O material foi conduzido para o Laboratório de Botânica da Universidade Federal do Piauí, campus de Picos, onde foi lavado, separado e identificado. Foram listadas 24 espécies distribuídas em 13 famílias botânicas, entre as quais foram mais representativas: Poaceae (5), Cyperaceae (3), Fabaceae (3), Araceae (2), Convolvulaceae (2) e Polygonaceae (2). As formas biológicas mais comuns foram as anfíbias e emergentes, anfíbias e as flutuantes livres. A maior riqueza florística ocorreu nos meses de fevereiro e setembro com 18 e 16 espécies, respectivamente. Conclui-se que a diversidade de macrófitas aquáticas do rio Guaribas sofreu influência dos fatores ambientais e antrópicos sendo favorecida pelo evento de chuvas, sucessão de espécies e eutrofização do corpo d’água.RICHNESS AND DISTRIBUTION OF AQUATIC MACROPHYTES SPECIES IN THE GUARIBAS RIVER, PICOS, PIAUÍ STATEABSTRACTAquatic macrophytes play important roles in the aquatic environment, contributing to environmental structuring and biological balance.

Published: June 2021

ABSTRACTHistorically, women have been excluded from the scientifi c and academic world. It was only in the second half of the twentieth century that women had access to scientifi c education and started their professional careers, with low female participation in science and technology and a trail of gender discrimination and prejudice. Nowadays women continue to continue to struggle to overcome the barriers imposed by patriarchal society and culture, and several changes are still needed to introduce a gender perspective in science, and every step taken is a victory towards inclusion and recognition. Here is a list of women who have engaged in elasmobranch research in the Amazonian region and dedicated their careers to improving knowledge of sharks and batoids. We hope that with this special edition we will not only be able to honor these strong women who have paved our way, but also to inspire young scientists to do the same. ResumoHistoricamente, mulheres foram excluídas do mundo científi co e acadêmico. Foi apenas na segunda metade do século XX que elas tiveram acesso à educação científi ca e iniciaram suas carreiras profi ssionais, com baixa participação feminina na área de ciência e tecnologia e um enorme rastro de discriminação de gênero e preconceito. Atualmente as mulheres continuam lutando para vencer as barreiras impostas pela sociedade e cultura patriarcais, e inúmeras mudanças ainda são necessárias para se introduzir uma perspectiva de gênero na ciência e cada passo dado é uma vitória em direção à inclusão e reconhecimento. Aqui trazemos uma lista de mulheres que se engajaram na pesquisa de elasmobrânquios na região amazônica e dedicaram suas carreiras à pesquisa e conservação de tubarões e raias. Esperamos que a presente homenagem a estas mulheres fortes que pavimentaram nosso caminho possa inspirar jovens cientistas a fazerem o mesmo.Palavras-chave: Chondrichthyes; Amazônia; Gênero; Ciência.
Taxation of the Self‑employed in Poland and other EU Countries – a Comparative Analysis
Authors: Krajewska Anna , Krajewski Piotr
Published: June 2021

The article aims to compare the taxation of the self‑employed in Poland and other EU countries. We show that, for years, Poland has been at the forefront of EU countries with the highest self‑employment rates. Our analysis indicates that many people in Poland chose the status of self‑employed, guided by tax optimization. Due to large differences in the burden of income tax and social security contributions of people working full‑time and choosing self‑employment, there are strong incentives to move from employment to fictitious self‑employment. Our study shows that this significantly affects the revenues of the state budget and social security fund in Poland.
Consumer Behaviour in the Accommodation Services Market – a Comparison of Vienna, Bratislava and Prague in 2018
Authors: Petříček Martin , Chalupa Štěpán
Published: June 2021

The paper aims to compare three accommodation services markets using empirical data from more than 250 accommodation facilities in specific destinations (Vienna, Bratislava, Prague). The data are available on a daily basis, but the resulting comparison is then performed on a monthly basis within 2018. The comparison is performer based on three basic criteria – occupancy, average daily rate and an indicator of price elasticity of demand. Price elasticity is measured using a log‑log regression analysis. The key findings of the comparison are as follows: (1) The Vienna and Prague markets are similar in terms of occupancy and coefficient of price elasticity. In contrast, the Bratislava market showed statistically significant differences from the other two markets in all the criteria under review. (2) The Bratislava market operates at a significantly lower price range compared to the other markets analysed. In the long term, this market has also been lower in the field of occupancy. (3) The markets in Vienna and Prague respond more dynamically to changes in consumer behaviour by changing prices. (4) The so‑called “November Phenomenon” has been identified, where all indicators in all markets behave unconventionally. (5) All markets have in common the fact that they have shown price‑inelastic demand over the long term, and at the turn of the year, they all face Giffen’s paradox.
La Ley de Okun en el Perú: Lima Metropolitana 1971 – 2016
Authors: Garavito Cecilia
Published: June 2021

El objetivo de este artículo es estimar el coeficiente de Okun para Lima Metropolitana en el periodo 1971 – 2016. Lo hacemos por medio de dos versiones: la ecuación en brechas con respecto al producto potencial y a la tasa de desempleo natural; y la relación entre cambios en la tasa de desempleo y cambios en el producto no primario. Estimamos también ecuaciones distintas en el auge y en la recesión para ver si los coeficientes son asimétricos tal como se plantea en parte de la literatura sobre el tema. Con datos de la Encuesta de Niveles de Empleo para Lima Metropolitana y de la Encuesta Nacional de Hogares, estimamos un coeficiente de Okun de -0.00009; asimismo encontramos que aun cuando el coeficiente es menor en el auge que en la recesión, no existe una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre ambos coeficientes. Finalmente, las razones de este coeficiente tan bajo están asociadas al comportamiento de la fuerza laboral, a los cambios en las leyes laborales, y a la débil relación entre el producto y el empleo, aun para empresas de 100 y más trabajadores.
Stochastic Volatility in Mean. Empirical Evidence from Stock Latin American Markets
Authors: Abanto Valle Carlos , Rodríguez Gabriel , Garrafa Aragón Hernán
Published: June 2021

Utilizando un modelo de volatilidad estocástica en la media (SVM), realizamos un estudio empírico de los índices latinoamericanos en vivo para ver el impacto de la volatilidad en la media de los retornos. Utilizamos la dinámica hamiltoniana de MCMC. Los resultados indican que la volatilidad tiene un impacto negativo en los rendimientos, lo que sugiere que el efecto de retroalimentación de la volatilidad es más fuerte que el efecto relacionado con la volatilidad esperada. Este resultado es claro y contrario al hallazgo de Koopman y Uspensky (2002). Los demás países presentan valores negativos pero la cola superior de los intervalos se acerca al valor cero.
Comparison of alfaxalone versus propofol as anaesthetic induction agents in increasing the rate of survival and vigour of neonates
Authors: Sofyan Lesca Monica , Martinez-Taboada Fernando
Published: June 2021

PICO question

In routine canine caesareans, is alfaxalone a superior anaesthetic induction agent than propofol in increasing the rate of survival and vigour of neonates?

 

Clinical bottom line

Category of research question

Treatment

The number and type of study designs reviewed

Three randomised positive clinical trials have compared the efficacy between alfaxalone and propofol in routine canine caesarean sections for increased neonatal survival and vigour

Strength of evidence

Weak

Outcomes reported

Although two studies found alfaxalone to be associated with higher Apgar scores for neonates than propofol, each study nonetheless revealed positive vigour and high survival rates from the use of either alfaxalone or propofol. The evidence is too weak to suggest that one induction agent is superior to another. The selection between the two induction agents may not be the main concern in regard to neonatal depression and 24 hour survival post-delivery, provided that the entire canine caesarean protocol is thoroughly and carefully studied

Conclusion

How to apply this evidence in practice

The application of evidence into practice should take into account multiple factors, not limited to: individual clinical expertise, patient’s circumstances and owners’ values, country, location or clinic where you work, the individual case in front of you, the availability of therapies and resources.

Indices De Minéralisations En Or Dans La Province Panafricaine Du Sud Maradi (Sud Niger)
Authors: Baraou Idi Souley , Konaté Moussa , Ahmed Yacouba , Sani Abdoulwahid
Published: June 2021

Le socle du Sud Maradi (Sud Niger) correspond à l’extrémité Nord du bouclier Bénino-Nigérian, appartenant à la zone mobile panafricaine à l’Est du Craton Ouest-Africain. Cette étude apporte une modeste contribution dans la caractérisation géochimique des minéralisations aurifères de cette province métallogénique panafricaine. A cet effet, l’approche méthodologique mise en oeuvre associe le dosage géochimique de l’or par absorption atomique (Au Fire Assay/AA) pour les roches saines, et la séparation des pépites d’or par l’utilisation de la table à secousse pour les altérites du socle et les sédiments (placers et paléoplacers). Les analyses géochimiques ont mis en évidence l’existence de deux types de minéralisations: primaires et secondaires. Les minéralisations primaires de l’or sont à l’état disséminé (faibles teneurs de 0.005 à 0.017 g/t) mais des teneurs relativement plus élevées (0.006 à 0.017 g/t) ont été enregistrées au voisinage des zones de cisaillement du socle. Tandis que la minéralisation secondaire, mise en évidence dans les altérites du socle, dans les alluvions (placers) et dans les grès du Crétacé (paléoplacers) présentent des teneurs en or plus élevées (5 à 30 g/t), dépassant largement les teneurs des minéralisations primaires observées dans les roches saines du socle. Ce grand écart de teneurs s’explique par un fort lessivage du socle, qui aurait permis une reconcentration de l’or dans les sédiments.

The South Maradi (South Niger) basement corresponds to the northeastern part of the Benin-Nigerian Shield, belonging to the Pan-African mobile zone, which is located to the east of the West African Craton. This study brings a modest contribution to the geochemical characterization of gold mineralization in this Pan-African metallogenic province. For this purpose, the methodological approach implemented combines the geochemical determination of gold contents by atomic absorption (Au Fire Assay/AA) for basement rocks and physical separation of gold specks by using the vibrating table process for basement alterites and sediments (placers and paleoplacers). The obtained results showed two types of gold mineralization: primary and secondary. Primary gold mineralization is in a disseminated state (low contents of 0.005 to 0.017 g / t) but relatively the higher values (0.006 to 0.017 g / t) were recorded near the basement shear zones. While the secondary gold mineralization, highlighted in basement alterites, alluvium (placers) and Cretaceous sandstones (paleoplacers) present higher gold contents (5 to 30 g / t) than primary gold contents observed in basement rocks. This large difference in values can be explained by a strong alteration of the basement, which would have allowed a reconcentration of the gold in the sediments.

Published: June 2021

Por la situación climática de las últimas décadas, las normas internacionales que regulan a los materiales de construcción son cada vez más estrictas. Actualmente, el vidrio es uno de los materiales de construcción más utilizados a nivel global y existen normas para evaluar su rendimiento térmico y así conocer su eficiencia para ahorrar energía. El Coeficiente de Transferencia de Calor (U) y el Coeficiente de Ganancia de Calor Solar (CGCS) son los principales parámetros térmicos que se utilizan para verificar si el rendimiento del material es satisfactorio en función de las normas vigentes y el mercado de vidrios. Para determinar estos parámetros se hicieron pruebas al exterior con un calorímetro solar diseñado y desarrollado para este fin. En este trabajo se evaluaron cinco muestras de vidrio: una muestra de vidrio claro (referencia) y cuatro muestras con recubrimientos de ZnO:Cu y ZnO:Ag en distintas concentraciones y número de capas aplicadas, los cuales fueron desarrollados con el objetivo de reducir la ganancia de calor. Los resultados de la evaluación mostraron diferencias poco significativas entre la muestra de referencia y las muestras con recubrimientos. Por lo cual, se sugiere realizar modificaciones durante el desarrollo o la aplicación de los recubrimientos que permita mejorar las características de ganancia térmica.

Due to the climatic situation of the last decades, the international standards that regulate construction materials are increasingly strict. Currently, glass is one of the most used building materials in the world, and there are standards to evaluate its thermal performance and thus know its efficiency to save energy. The Thermal Transmittance (U-value) and the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) are the main thermal parameters used to verify if the performance of the material is satisfactory according to current standards and the glass market. To determine these parameters, outdoor tests were carried out with a solar calorimeter designed and developed for this purpose. In this work, five glass samples were evaluated: one clear glass sample (reference) and four samples with ZnO: Cu and ZnO: Ag coatings in different concentrations and number of applied layers, which were developed to reduce heat gain. The results of the evaluation showed not very significant differences between the reference sample and the samples with coatings. Therefore, it is suggested to carry out modifications during the development or application of the coatings to improve the thermal gain characteristics.

The objective of this study was to carry out, based on certain bibliometric and altimetric indicators, a summary assessment of the scientific productivity of Quisqueya University’s researchers in 3 specific fields: agronomy, the environment and health. An experimental framework was designed and implemented based on the quantitative information available on the academic social network ResearchGate, and on SCOPUS and Google scholar, out of a total of 12,731 citations enumerated for Quisqueya University as of December 31, 2020, 19% were for the environment, 19.3% were for health, 59.9% for agronomy and 1.8% for other sectors. All the sectors recorded a significant increase for the RG score altmetric indicator and for the two bibliometric indicators: number of citations and H-index. The data collected were analyzed using XLSTAT and R software. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test was applied for each of the indicators. Pearson's rank correlation was used to calculate the correlations between the altmetric indicator (RG-Score) from ResearchGate and the bibliometric indicators (citation and H-index) from Google Scholar and Scopus. A significant positive correlation of α = 0.918 was observed between the number of citations on ResearchGate and on Google Scholar. a result in the same direction (α = 0.991) is also observed between the number of citations on ResearchGate and on Scopus. These correlations allow us to conclude that the work of these researchers was cited in publications published in journals referenced in the Web of Science by a rate exceeding 90%.
Building the Values of Rahmatan Lil 'Alamin for Indonesian Economic Development at 4.0 Era from the Perspective of Philosophy and Islamic Economic Law
Authors: Hisam Ahyani  , Memet Slamet  , Tobroni
Published: June 2021

This research aims to build the value of rahmatan lil 'alamin in Indonesian economic development at 4.0 era from the perspective of philosophy and shariah economic law. The role of both is considered important regarding with freedom to do any economic activities in Indonesia as the non-Islamic state in the formal term yet at the same time is known as a sharia economic community due to its world’s largest Moslem population. This literature-normative research is  qualitative with a statutory, historical, comparative and conceptual approach. It found that first, rahmatan lil 'alamin (sheltering the entire ummah and not exclusive to Moslem only) value enables the philosophy of Islamic law to contribute in developing Indonesian economy. The goal of Islam as a religion to guide its believers toward the happiness of the world and the hereafter and the triangle concept among philosophy of God, human, and nature, for example, make it possible for Islamic economic with its rahmatan lil 'alamin values to cover deficiencies of the conventional economic system. Second, the philosophy of rahmatan lil 'alamin in Islamic economics can be manifested by organizing social services, such as waqf, relying on the spirit of building justice in life, narrowing social gaps, as well as enlivening Islamic values. In the era of 4.0, implementation of the value can be adjusted to recent demands and situations, such as cash waqf, halal industry, halal food, halal tourism and so on(Riset ini bertujuan menggali nilai-nilai rahmatan lil ‘alamin dalam perekonomian Indonesia era 4.0 menurut tinjauan filsafat dan hukum ekonomi syariah. Peran keduanya dianggap penting terkait kebebasan berekonomi dalam konteks Indonesia yang bukan merupakan negara Islam secara formal namun memiliki komunitas ekonomi Syariah sebagai negara Muslim terbesar di dunia. Penelitian kepustakaan-normatif ini bersifat kuantitatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, sejarah, perbandingan, serta konseptual. Ia sampai pada kesimpulan bahwa, pertama, konsep rahmatan lil ‘alamin  yang menaungi seluruh ummat—tidak hanya umat Muslim—memungkinkan filsafat hukum Islam berkontribusi dalam mengembangkan perekonomian Indonesia. Tujuan Islam untuk mencapai kebahagiaan dunia-akhirat serta konsep triangle antara filsafat Tuhan, manusia dan alam, misalnya, memungkinkan tertutupinya kekurangan dalam sistem ekonomi konvensional dengan sistem ekonomi Islam. Kedua, nilai rahmatan lil ‘alamin dalam hukum ekonomi Islam dapat diwujudkan dengan menyelenggarakan kegiatan-kegiatan sosial seperti wakaf dengan semangat menciptakan kehidupan yang berkeadilan, mengurangi kesenjangan sosial serta menghidupkan nilai-nilai keislaman. Di era 4.0, implementasi nilai rahmatan lil’alamin dapat disesuaikan dengan tuntutan zaman semisal wakaf tunai, industri halal, makanan halal, wisata halal, dan lain sebagainya)

Published: June 2021

The article examines the development of genetic science from the moment of its inception to the present state, shows the transformation of ideas about genetics and attitudes towards it during the evolution of public consciousness (from utopianism to alarmism). The modern possibilities of genetic technologies, the prospects of their influence on social structures and on the nature of the person himself are analyzed, the risks and social consequences associated with this process are explicated. The potential of genetic engineering, technologies of "human improvement", genetic testing is considered, its ability to influence the fundamental foundations of human existence, the ability to transform the boundaries between biological and social, nature and culture, is demonstrated. The authors also touch upon the problem of transhumanism, within the framework of which the contradiction between the position of the supporters of the emergence of mankind on a new round of evolution and modern ideas about the natural equality of all people is indicated, the overcoming of which carries ethical, legal and political consequences that are difficult to predict.

This paper presents the multivariate analysis of the bioethical criterion for the understanding the social value of genetic research in medicine and biology. From the point of view of moral assessment, a historical retrospective and dialectics of genetic technologies development and their application in medical practice are given. The presented data indicate the social and moral conflict of the unbalanced genetic technologies using and the way for ethical and normative solution. The leading approaches to the search for optimization of genetic technologies based on improving the ethics of science, education, public confidence, and ensuring the ethical component of legislative regulation are considered. The construction of the work and the discussion of the results confirms by real and promising examples of genetic technologies: perinatal and pre-implantation diagnostics; genetic banks; editing the human genome. The specificity of the work lies in the direct long-term author's participation in the creation of an ethical concept of genetic research in medicine and biology on the national, regional and international levels.

Published: June 2021

Transition to the digital environment transforms the schemas of social interaction including the relationship between parents and their children. Many parents who lack digital competence however are called upon to become agents of ‘digital socialization’ for their kids who step into the world of gadgets from an early age.Current study explores parents competence (including, digital); their attitudes towards developing digital competence of their children; their coping strategies in the situations of child addiction to the digital gadgets, computer games and the Internet use; as well as their request to the education system in line with its ubiquitous digitalization. As a research method the authors have chosen the two-stage survey in which 118 participants took part — the parents of elementary school students. The data was analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. As a result the parents were clustered into several groups on the basis of: their digital attitudes (supporters and antagonists) and their level of digital competence (low-medium-high). Further the data was analyzed within each cluster. The study has revealed that the majority of parents report themselves as competent (60%) or highly competent (17%) digital users. Positive relationships were identified between the parents' digital competence level and 1) their digital attitudes — the higher the level of competence — the more positive were the attitudes; 2) parents active participation in their children’s digital skills development and acknowledging children’s agency in the process of digital self-education. The results reflect the range of parents' opinions which must be taken into account when assisting families in the process of child development and socialization.

La aplicación de la ética de la alteridad al colectivo de afrodescendientes: un análisis crítico del caso portugués durante la crisis pandémica
Authors: Oliveira Lopes Alexandra Jesús
Published: June 2021

La alteridad es el reconocimiento del otro; es el acto de reconocer una realidad alternativa de la nuestra que, en las sociedades actuales es un presupuesto epistemológico, es decir, una condición ab initio sin la cual no se podría configurar el diálogo intercultural que todos hacemos, si bien a veces implícitamente. Así mismo, la presente comunicación versará sobre el status quo de la aplicación de la ética de la alteridad en el Estado Portugués y, en particular, en lo que concierne al colectivo de afrodescendientes. Se trata de una aportación crítica a los sistemas de integración de esta comunidad en Portugal, teniendo como campo privilegiado de estudio el período pandémico que se atraviesa y, en particular, su impacto sobre la consumación del diálogo intercultural con los afrodescendientes portugueses. La propuesta subyacente al artículo se articula partiendo de la síntesis entre el paradigma de la diferencia y el reconocimiento partiendo del análisis de un conjunto de lagunas del paradigma actual
