Dictadura y autoritarismo en la Ciencia Política: momentos bisagra de una relación conceptual contrario asimétrica con la democracia
Authors: Rodríguez Rial Gabriela 
Published: October 2024

Resumen¿Cómo impacta el contexto en la rigidez o flexibilidad de la frontera que se establece entre democracia y autocracia? La intención de este artículo es determinar si la distinción entre formas opresivas y no opresivas del poder político es el fundamento normativo de los abordajes politológicos que contrastan la democracia con los conceptos de dictadura y autoritarismo. Con herramientas heurísticas de la historia conceptual se abordan tres coyunturas críticas de la historia de la Ciencia Política: los análisis de la dictadura de Norberto Bobbio y Giovani Sartori; la conceptualización del autoritarismo de Juan Linz; y la noción de “regímenes electorales autoritarios” acuñada por Andreas Schedler. Primero se demuestra cómo el abordaje de cada autor respecto de la relación conceptual entre dictadura y autoritarismo influye en sus respectivas concepciones y valorizaciones de la democracia liberal como forma del poder político no opresiva por antonomasia. Y luego, en las conclusiones, se responde al interrogante que motivó la presente indagación.Palabras clave: autoritarismo, opresión, dictadura, democracia DICTATORSHIP AND AUTHORITARIANISM IN POLITICAL SCIENCE: THREE CRITICAL JUNCTURES IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DEMOCRACY AND POLITICAL OPPRESSIONAbstractHow does the context impact on the rigidity or flexibility of the border that Political Science draws between democracy and autocracy? The aim of this article is to establish if the difference between oppressive and non-oppressive forms of political power works as a normative foundation for Political Science approaches that use the concepts of dictatorship and authoritarianism to contrast with democracy. Using heuristic tools from Conceptual History, we address three critical junctures in the history of Political Science as a discipline: the analyses of dictatorship by Norberto Bobbio and Giovani Sartori; the conceptualization of authoritarianism by Juan Linz; and the notion of "authoritarian electoral regimes" coined by Andreas Schedler. First, we show how each author's approach to the conceptual relationship between dictatorship and authoritarianism affects their respective conceptions and evaluations of liberal democracy as the quintessential non-oppressive form of political power. As a result, in the conclusions, we answer the question that were prompted the present study.Key words: authoritarianism, oppression, dictatorship, democracy ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/a9aom2c6u
Presidencialismo, autoritarismo y democracia en Argentina. Una reflexión sobre la distinción y los solapamientos entre la autoridad y el poder
Authors: Eiff Leonardo 
Published: October 2024

El artículo propone enfocar los debates sobre la crisis de la democracia desde la perspectiva teórico política que distingue la autoridad y el poder. Para ello, reconstruye la semántica histórica de ambas figuras y luego indaga sus consecuencias en el ordenamiento político de las democracias contemporáneas. El efecto principal a destacar es el que se observa en la institución presidencial. Por eso, el artículo se detiene en los debates alrededor del presidencialismo en Argentina introduciendo la visión teórico política de la distinción entre autoridad y poder, procurando mutar el sentido de esa controversia a los fines de explorar la vigente crisis de la democracia.Palabras claves: autoridad, poder, democracia, presidencialismo Presidencialism, authoritarism and democracy in Argentina A reflection on the distintion and overlaps between authority and powerAbstractThe article proposes to approach the debates on the crisis of democracy from the political theoretical perspective that distinguishes authority and power. To do this, it reconstructs the historical semantics of both figures and then investigates their consequences in the political order of contemporary democracies. The main effect to highlight is the one observed in the presidential institution. For this reason, the article focuses on the debates surrounding presidentialism in Argentina, introducing the theoretical-political vision of the distinction between authority and power, seeking to mutate the meaning of that controversy in order to explore the current crisis of democracy.Key words: authority, power, democracy, presidentialis ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/nkakgpxco
Liberalismo, autoridad y Estado. Acerca del componente autoritario de la estatalidad en Hermann Heller
Authors: Fraile Nicolás , Kiel Ramiro 
Published: October 2024

A pesar de que en los últimos años se produjo una creciente preocupación por el “neoliberalismo autoritario”, es dable observar que la mayoría de las reflexiones teóricas, al centrarse sobre el componente neoliberal, ubican el componente autoritario en un lugar secundario y lo identifican sin más con el uso excesivo del aparato represivo del Estado. En un sentido opuesto discurre la contribución de aquel autor que, según puede corroborarse, acuñó tempranamente la fórmula “neoliberalismo autoritario”: Hermann Heller. A juicio de este teórico alemán del Estado, el componente autoritario, si bien envolvía el uso excesivo de la violencia, iluminaba un problema que excedía al liberalismo y alcanzaba a toda forma estatal, a saber: al de la remisión a un conjunto de preceptos e ideas con los que el Estado se consagra como autoridad. En vista de ello, en este trabajo nos proponemos ganar claridad conceptual sobre el carácter autoritario del Estado tal como Hermann Heller lo estableció en su clásico escrito “¿Liberalismo autoritario?”.Palabras clave: teoría del Estado, República de Weimar, principios éticos del derecho, Estado total liberalism, authority and state. on the authoritarian component of statehood in hermann hellerAbstractAlthough there has been a growing concern in recent years about the concept of "authoritarian neoliberalism", it is worth noting that the majority of theoretical reflections have focused on the neoliberal component, placing the authoritarian component in a secondary position and simply identifying it with the excessive use of the repressive apparatus of the state. In the opposite direction runs the contribution of that author who, as can be proved, early coined the term "authoritarian neoliberalism": Hermann Heller. According to this German theorist of the state, the authoritarian component, although it involves the excessive use of force, highlights a problem that transcends liberalism and reaches all state forms, namely that of the reference to a set of principles and ideas by which the state sanctifies itself as an authority. In light of the aforementioned considerations, the aim of this paper is to shed light on the authoritarian character of the state as defined by Hermann Heller in his seminal work, "Authoritarian Liberalism?".Keywords: Theory of the State, Weimar Republic, Ethical Principles of Law, Total State ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/2gtgj2akd
Enemigos y defensores de la Constitución en Argentina: democracia, república y autoritarismo en los límites del derecho constitucional
Authors: Tripolone Gerardo 
Published: October 2024

La defensa de la Constitución constituye un tema prioritario en el derecho constitucional desde hace más de un siglo. El objetivo de este artículo es abordar estas discusiones en Argentina, pero teniendo en cuenta un concepto tradicionalmente olvidado en la literatura constitucional: el de enemigo. Partiendo de la premisa según la cual la pregunta por el defensor de la Constitución supone la del enemigo, en el texto se analizan cuatro instancias donde los enemigos y los defensores de la Constitución se han explicitado: (i) el artículo 29 de la Constitución histórica todavía vigente; (ii) las discusiones en torno a la defensa de la Constitución en la reforma de 1949; (iii) el artículo 36 surgido de la reforma de 1994 y (iv) las decisiones de la Corte Suprema que denegaron la personería jurídica a ciertos partidos políticos. El objetivo es mostrar las inflexiones de las categorías políticas que se han presentado como enemigas de la Constitución, y también de la democracia en Argentina. Esto permite apreciar las tensiones y las paradojas de la pretensión de defender la Constitución por medios legal-constitucionales.Palabras clave: Defensa de la Constitución, Enemigo de la Constitución, Argentina Enemies and Defenders of the Constitution in Argentina: democracy, republic and authoritarianism at the limits of constitutional lawAbstractThe defense of the Constitution has been one of the most important topics in constitutional law for more than a century. The aim of this article is to study these discussions in Argentina, but taking into account a concept usually forgotten in constitutional literature: the enemy. From the premise that the question of who defends the Constitution also involves identifying its enemies, the work analyzes four moments in which enemies and defenders of the Constitution have been revealed: (i) Article 29 of the historical Constitution, which is still in force; (ii) the discussions around the defense of the Constitution in 1949; (iii) Article 36 approved in the 1994 reform; and (iv) the decisions ruled by the Supreme Court that rejected the legal personality of some political parties. The aim is to show the inflections of the political concepts that have been presented as enemies of the Constitution and democracy. This allows for the examination of the tensions and paradoxes involved in attempting to defend the Constitution through legal and constitutional measures.Keywords: Defense of the Constitution, Enemy of the Constitution, Argentina ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/84hyqps5c
Roles esperados del Estado y de la autoridad presidencial en las elecciones argentinas de 2023
Authors: Infante Leonela , Núñez Javier 
Published: October 2024

El triunfo de Javier Milei en las elecciones de 2023 ha sido interpretado como el surgimiento de una nueva subjetividad política de derecha, en el marco de un fuerte desencanto con la gestión pública de la economía. En discusión con estas lecturas, el artículo analiza representaciones de sentido común sobre el rol del Estado y de la autoridad presidencial durante este proceso electoral a partir de una serie de grupos focales desarrollados en la Provincia de Buenos Aires. A su vez se exploran discursividades, de las dos principales fuerzas políticas, sobre esas temáticas mediante el análisis de enunciaciones de algunas de sus principales figuras. Se sostiene que, lejos de un desencanto con lo estatal, las elecciones estuvieron marcadas por sentidos transversales en el electorado que tematizaron un rol estatal como ordenador de seguridades ancladas en el empleo y expectativas sobre la autoridad presidencial como encarnación de una capacidad de decisión que habilita esa función. Palabras clave: Elecciones presidenciales - Argentina - Rol esperado del Estado - Autoridad presidencial Expected roles of the State and presidential authority during Argentina’s 2023 electionsAbstractJavier Milei’s victory in 2023 elections have been interpreted as the emergence of a new right-wing political subjectivity, framed by a strong disenchantment with public management of the economy. In discussion with these views, the article analyzes common sense social representations on the roles of the state and the presidential authority during the electoral process, studied thought focus groups developed in Buenos Aires province. Also, discursiveness of the two main political forces around these subjects are explored, analyzing some of its main figures. It is sustained that, far from a disenchantment towards the state, the elections were marked by transversal meanings which thematized a state role in the provision of securities related to employment and expectations on presidential authority as an incarnation of the decision that gives way to that role.Keywords: Presidential elections - Argentina - expected state role - presidential authority ARK CAICYT: https://id.caicyt.gov.ar/ark:/s16668979/n6ox0pwdv

Pengolahan air limbah dilakukan sebagai upaya pencegahan pencemaran air. Limbah suatu proses dikembalikan ke sungai hendaknya dalam keadaan sesuai nilai baku mutu. Salah satu metode yang digunakan pada industri untuk mengolah limbah cair adalah dengan penggunaan lumpur aktif. Bakteri aerob pada lumpur aktif berperan sebagai pengurai bahan-bahan organik di dalam limbah cair. Pada penelitian ini, bioaktivator EM4 digunakan untuk menghilangkan bau pada air limbah dan memperpendek waktu aklimatisasi mikroorganisme. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kadar COD, pengujian MLSS (Mixed Liquor Suspended Solid), dan NTU. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kandungan air limbah masih melebihi nilai baku mutu yang telah ditetapkan sesuai Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 22 Tahun 2021, dengan kadar COD sebesar 869.565 mg/L dan nilai MLSS sebesar 200 mg/L. Sehingga berdasarkan data tersebut air tersebut masih jauh dari kata layak untuk digunakan untuk keperluan rumah tangga. Hal ini disebabkan oleh banyak faktor diantaranya waktu pengendapan yang lama, kurangnya penambahan bakteri (EM4) dan volume tangki pada waktu retensi.

Inhibitor of apoptosis-stimulating protein of p53 (iASPP) overexpression is associated with diverse human tumors, including lung cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, acute leukemia, hepatocellular carcinoma, cervical cancer, and ovarian cancer. This study aims to find new and potent inhibitors for the iASPP drug target. Using pharmacophore-based virtual screening, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation an integrated strategy was developed to find highly effective iASPP inhibitors. Subsequently, the pharmacophore model was employed as a screening query to find promising inhibitors from the ZINC database. Total 36/12000 hits were identified against the iASPP drug target. The binding mode of the promising identified inhibitors was predicted by a molecular docking study. To evaluate the stability of the newly identified inhibitors top 03 best docking scores compounds were subjected to MD simulation. MD simulation and binding energy calculation confirmed that the compounds including ZINC001361049159, ZINC001361124195, and ZINC001545869876 were stable. The MD simulation analysis indicated that among all the compounds ZINC001361049159 was the most potent. These newly designed iASPP inhibitors could be used as starting material to identify new and potent anti-cancer drugs.

Published: October 2024

Social responsibility is imperative for its important function in the growth of societies and organizations. However, the research on corporate social responsibility (OSR) has predominantly focused on the actions of organizations. Not much has been discussed regarding the employee's behaviours in promoting the development of social responsibility within organizations. CI is known for its significant role in the organization's various outcomes, Although a conceptualization and some empirical support have been provided for its relationship with the behaviour of employees, However, the effect of CI on employee socially responsible behaviours has not yet been investigated. In this article, following OC and OI theories, we improve the research model which can describe mechanisms underpinning through which CI, OI and POS support actions for employees' social responsibility. Data was collected from members of service professionals in Saudi Arabia and examined using Structural Equation Modeling- Partial Least Squares. The findings indicated that CI actions and activities develop the skills that motivate employees to support social responsibility inside and outside the organization. Moreover, our research paper explained the mechanism under which CI activities reshape employees' socially responsible manners. The current study is among the first to look at how to modify the socially responsible behaviour of employees across organizations, which can be a starting point for transforming those employees into a sustainable society.
The Natural Pattern-based Fuzzy Investment System

Published: October 2024

Research background: The underlying research problem concerns simplifying nature’s infinite sustainability pattern into a usable system to prove self-care in the financial field. Many disciplines have discovered self-sustaining systems, implying one should also exist in the portfolio- or asset management field. Purpose of the article: This paper models and applies a self-sustaining investment system based on nature’s sustainability pattern to present a usable and easily adaptable financial self-care model that can contribute to societal and individual well-being. Methods: This interdisciplinary research incorporates fractal patterns from nature and integrates these into an innovative investment decision system via a working and utilizable model. The article approaches the problem in three ways. First, it applies an unprecedented, proprietary fuzzy heuristic approach to parse the Mandelbrot set hiding nature’s growth code. Second, it subjects the resulting model system to static, dynamic, and iterative methods. Finally, it tests the above in practice in a focus group research project based on individual decisions in a portfolio collision. Findings & value added: The paper brings manageable order to investment decision processes using a specific econophysics approach to provide a complex whole of frames, alternatives, and dynamic wealth management functions. The paper attempts to demonstrate the self-sustaining power of the natural order in investment portfolio returns, behavioral finance, and wealth management decisions. The theory of an efficient, well-functioning, self-sustaining investment decision system based on heuristic criteria is developable and has been proven. The study made the organizational dominance measurable and – through fuzzy logic – simplified the complexity of the Mandelbrot set. The research also shows the scalability of the fuzzy symmetry framework, implying that it is transferable to other disciplines.
Long-term consumption of aspartame & cancer risk
Authors: Muppaty Hansini 
Published: October 2024

Artificial sweeteners, specifically aspartame, are present in everyday modern diets due to their low-calorie content and high level of sweetness. They are often used as sugar substitutes to promote weight loss and manage diabetes. Despite their widespread use and approval by regulatory bodies such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), concerns about the safety and potential carcinogenicity of artificial sweeteners persist. This research paper delves into the controversy surrounding aspartame, which was classified as possibly carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in 2023. By reviewing literature and analyzing studies published between 2000 and 2024, this paper explores aspartame’s metabolism in the human body, its by-products, and its biological effects. The article also delves into a notable experimental study involving male Wistar albino rats that demonstrated significant biochemical changes, histological liver damage, and gene expression alterations at high doses of aspartame, indicating potential cancer risks. The findings underscore the need for further research to clarify the biochemical and molecular mechanisms linking artificial sweeteners to cancer while emphasizing cautious consumption and reevaluation of safety guidelines.
ELEMEN BUDAYA DI KAMPUNG CIREUNDEU SEBAGAI JEMBATAN DALAM KOMUNIKASI ANTAR UMAT BERAGAMA
Authors: Setiawan Wawan , Sandy Ghina May , Alvianita Erin 
Published: October 2024

Masyarakat adat Cireundeu merupakan sebuah sistem sosial yang memiliki sistem keyakinan, sistem nilai, sistem norma dan simbol tersendiri. Empat sistem tersebut menghadapi desakan kontinuitas dan diskontinuitas pada saat terjadi parokialisasi tradisi besar Islam dan modernitas. Kuatnya arus parokialisasi menyebabkan masyarakat Cireundeu lebih adaptif terhadap kultur Islam pada tataran simbol. Hal ini terlihat dalam pencantuman Islam sebagai agama dalam KTP mereka. Pada sisi lain, mereka masih mampu mempertahankan dan melanjutkan keyakinan, nilai dan norma yang dianutnya. Adapun sikap mereka terhadap parokialisasi modernitas ternyata lebih luas, kecuali dalam beragama. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriftif analisis dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Peneliti menganalisis dan menggambarkan kondisi sesuai dengan kejadian yang dilihat melalui observasi dan apa yang diperoleh melalui wawancara serta dokumen-dokumen yang didapat. Penelitian kualitatif untuk menyajikan gambaran realistik perilaku atau kejadian, untuk menjawab pertanyaan dan untuk membantu mengenai perilaku manusia. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Kampung Cireundeu yang terletak di daerah Cimahi kelurahan Leuwi Gajah Kecamatan Cimahi Selatan, terdapat dua agama yakni Islam dan kepercayaan (Sunda Wiwitan). Pemeluk dua agama ini senantiasa rukun. Mereka menganggap perbedaan ini sebeagai sebuah pelengkap satu sama lain. Dua agama ini hidup berdampingan. Hal ini berdampak pada perkembangan dakwah di kampung Cireundeu menjadi soroton disebabkan tidak sedikit para penganut Sunda Wiwitan mengaku dirinya Islam di KTP agar diakui. Hal ini menjadi problem bagi muslim karena Islam hanya dijadikan sebagai identitas di KTP saja. Grafik perkembangan dakwah di kampung adat Cireundeu senantiasa berkembang dari tahun ke tahun walaupun perkembangannya masih dari segi kuantitas bukan kualitas. Kampung Adat Cireundeu merupakan rekonstruksi cara-cara kehidupan masyarakat tradisional Sunda. Apabila diperhatikan lebih jauh, maka akan ditemukan berbagai keunikan di Kampung Cireundeu. Hal tersebut dimulai dari tinggal bersama kokolot, para seniman Sunda, hingga akan ditemukan ibu-ibu yang menumbuk padi di saung lisung, memasak dengan kayu bakar dalam hawu, melihat para petani bercocok tanam, dan belajar kesenian tradisional Sunda dan cara mengolah singkong menjadi makanan pokok. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, tidak dapat dipungkiri bahwa Kampung Cireundeu merupakan salah satu alternatif tempat wisata yang memberikan berbagai pilihan wisata dengan suasana kehidupan masyarakat agraris tradisional Sunda. Berdasarkan kriteria tersebut kemudian Pemkot Cimahi menjadikan Kampung Cireundeu sebagai destinasi wisata kebudayaan.
