Crime and Punishment in Latin America: Law and Society since Late Colonial Times. RICARDO D. SALVATORE, CARLOS AGUIRRE, and GILBERT M. JOSEPH (eds.): Durham and London: Duke University Press, 2001.
Authors: Olcott Jocelyn 
Published: February 2024

Ricardo Salvatore, Carlos Aguirre, and Gilbert M. Joseph's edited collection, Crime and Punishment in Latin America, joins a growing body of scholarship -- including several volumes authored or edited by Salvatore and/or Aguirre-- under the broad rubric of "new legal history." As Salvatore and Aguirre explain in their introduction, this approach rejects seeing laws as either "a purely normative framework that guaranteed social equilibrium through the application of 'justice'" or "a set of state-produced norms that reflected and reproduced elite power" (1). Instead, within new legal history, "law produces and reformulates culture … and it shapes and is shaped by larger processes of political, social, economic, and cultural change" (1-2). If this approach sounds a bit like "new social history" of the 1980s and '90s, it should. Indeed, Douglas Hay, who reexamined British social history using legal sources, offers a comparative afterword, including suggestions for further research.

Published: February 2024

"No hay peor política que la negra", dice el Presidente Municipal, interpretado por el actor Pedro Armendáriz, cuando se desata el escándalo que pone en evidencia la alianza entre la Iglesia y el narcotráfico. Esa frase también sintetiza la esencia de la película El crimen del padre Amaro, cuyo crimen, en palabras del guionista de la cinta, Vicente Leñero, es evidenciar "la unión adúltera con el poder".{note id=1} La tentación del cuerpo de Amalia, la hipocresía, la doble moral patente a lo largo del film, son sólo situaciones que aderezan la historia, la contextualizan y dan cuenta de lo que puede ser cualquier provincia mexicana a principios del siglo XXI.

To See with Two Eyes: Peasant Activism & Indian Autonomy in Chiapas, Mexico. SHANNAN L. MATTIACE. University of New Mexico Press, Albuquerque, 2003.
Authors: Kuecker Glen David 
Published: February 2024

The Zapatista rebellion commands scholarly attention. The novelty of the rebellion's tactics combined with the sophistication of its discourse provides rich material for understanding Latin American social movements. We have greatly benefited from both scholarly theoretical approaches and substantive academic analysis and debate regarding the meaning of democracy, citizenship and politics. Shannan Mattiace's contribution, To See with Two Eyes, is a valuable addition to this expanding literature.
Memoria indígena en el nacionalismo precursor de México y Perú
Authors: GUTIERREZ NATIVIDAD 
Published: February 2024

La invocación del pasado étnico parece ser una práctica constante del nacionalismo. Sin embargo, esto no quiere decir que se trate de un proceso mecánico y absolutamente condicional en la creación de naciones. El surgimiento de una comunidad cultural que aspira a ser políticamente independiente no es solamente una actividad austera basada en decretos y acuerdos sino también involucra su propio sentido de la memoria histórica como forma de legitimación de la nueva nación. El pasado étnico se percibe a través de mitos, símbolos y leyendas , mientras que el nacionalismo emerge como la primera expresión de conciencia y defensa cultural de dicho pasado étnico. El nacionalismo como movimiento cultural usa mitos y símbolos para proveer a la comunidad que busca autonomía política una identidad cultural propia. El uso de mitos impulsa a la acción colectiva y demuestra tener la capacidad para la movilización popular . El peso de estos mitos y símbolos en la mente popular cuenta para determinar la especificidad que adquiere cada expresión de nacionalismo.
Piqueteros al gobierno: un experimento populista argentino, 2003-2007
Authors: Escudé Carlos 
Published: February 2024

En este trabajo realizaremos un seguimiento cronológico de un experimento político poco frecuente: la incorporación de parte de la dirigencia de las organizaciones de protesta social argentinas al gobierno del presidente Néstor Kirchner. Durante su gestión, dirigentes asimilables del movimiento piquetero, constituido por diversas organizaciones de “trabajadores desempleados”, ingresaron sistemáticamente como funcionarios a los diversos niveles del Estado nacional y de los gobiernos provinciales y municipales. Mediante esta estrategia, que se vio favorecida por altas tasas de crecimiento económico y vino acompañada de una importante reducción del desempleo, durante el período 2003-07 aumentaron la gobernabilidad y la paz social en un país que en 2002 se había encontrado al borde de la anarquía.
Iberoamérica ¿En el círculo vicioso?
Authors: RUBIO CORDÓN JOSÉ LUIS 
Published: February 2024

"El sueco Myrdal, premio Nóbel de Economía, acertó a explicarnos la permanencia del fenómeno dual, a través de las llamadas Causas Circulares o Acumulativas... Muy en resumen, las zonas ricas, al serlo, suelen ser capaces de actuar en un círculo virtuoso que las hace cada vez más opulentas, mientras las pobres, a su vez, lo son cada vez más porque han entrado en un simultáneo círculo vicioso". (Juan Velarde: Época, Madrid, 4 de junio, 1990.)"Hay que destacar que un mundo dividido en bloques, presididos a su vez por ideologías rígidas, donde en lugar de la interdependencia y la solidaridad dominan diferentes formas de imperialismo, no es más que un mundo sometido a estructuras de pecado". (Juan Pablo 11: Sollicitudo Re¡ Socialis, 30 de diciembre, 1987.)
El nacionalismo católico, el fascismo y la inmigración en la Argentina (1927-1943). Una aproximación teórica
Authors: Nascimbene Mario C. , Neuman Mauricio Isaac 
Published: February 2024

Trataremos en este artículo de analizar el nacionalismo católico argentino, llamado por otros autores "nacionalismo restaurador" (C. Buchrucker) o "nacionalismo de élite" (M.I. Barbero, F. Devoto), entre 1927 y 1943, fechas que adoptamos sólo como hitos aproximados. Lo denominamos nacionalismo católico porque la matriz de su pensamiento procede fundamentalmente de las doctrinas sociales y políticas del catolicismo y porque su acción se desarrolló generalmente contando con la aprobación de la Iglesia. Es útil aclarar, además, que a la sazón, un 50% de la clerecía secular en la ciudad de Buenos Aires era de origen extranjero, con predominio de los sacerdotes españoles e italianos , entre los cuales había una alta proporción de filofranquistas y filofascistas respectivamente.
La defensa hemisférica de la democracia latinoamericana
Authors: Freres Christian L. 
Published: February 2024

Para un observador externo, la recuperación de la democracia en gran parte de América Latina durante la pasada década podría parecer "una antigua canción", ya que no es la primera vez en la historia de la región que vemos esta tendencia (Rosenberg,1991: 73). Esta última "ola" de democratización regional - al igual que las anteriores de los años 40, y a partir de 1955 - ha recibido bastante atención en la literatura especializada, así como en las revistas de interés general. En todo el material publicado sobre el tema se citan dos tipos de factores que la han impulsado. Uno, el más determinante, han sido las variables internas (por ej., el fracaso militar en Argentina, o el alto nivel de organización de la oposición chilena). Como bien señaló el Diálogo Interamericano, es evidente que en última instancia, "los gobiernos y los ciudadanos de cada nación son responsables del fortalecimiento y la salvaguardia de la democracia" (Insti- tuto Aspen, 1992: 25).
Identidad nacional y legitimidad en el discurso del nacionalismo católico cordobés (1943-1955)
Authors: Roitenburd Silvia N. 
Published: February 2024

Las relaciones entre Perón y la Iglesia han dado lugar a diversas interpretaciones. Casi todas coinciden en apuntar en una dirección: durante su segundo gobierno, un enfrentamiento irreversible se habría producido entre ambos. Queda un interrogante poco explorado: ¿se trató de un enfrentamiento circunstancial o acaso las causas del mismo se encontraban latentes desde las primeras etapas del ascenso de Perón?
Hybridity and the Aesthetics of Garbage: the Case of Brazilian Cinema
Authors: Stam Robert 
Published: February 2024

Cultural discourse in Latin America and the Caribbean has been fecund in neologistic aesthetics, both literary and cinematic: "lo real maravilloso americano" (Carpentier), the "aesthetics of hunger" (Glauber Rocha), "Cine imperfecto" (Julio García Espinosa), "the creative incapacity for copying" (Paulo Emilio Salles Gomes), the "aesthetics of garbage", (Rogerio Sganzerla), the "salamander" (as opposed to the Hollywood dinosaur) aesthetic (Paul Leduc), "termite terrorism" (Gilhermo del Toro), "anthropophagy" (the Brazilian Modernists), "Tropicalia" (Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso), "rasquachismo" (Tomás-Ibarra Frausto), and santería aesthetics (Arturo Lindsay). Most of these alternative aesthetics revalorize, by inversion, what had formerly been seen as negative, especially within colonialist discourse. Thus ritual cannibalism, for centuries the very name of the savage, abject other, becomes with the Brazilian modernistas an anti-colonialist trope and a term of value. (Even "magic realism" inverts the colonial view of magic as irrational superstition.) At the same time, these aesthetics share the jujitsu trait of turning strategic weakness into tactical strength. By appropriating an existing discourse for their own ends, they deploy the force of the dominant against domination.
Evita--An Intimate Portrait of Eva Perón
Authors: Rein Raanan 
Published: February 2024

TOMÁS DE ELÍA and JUAN PABLO QUEIROZ (eds.): London, Thames and Hudson, 1997.With the end of the blitz of conflicting visual images of Evita--"the woman with the whip," "the lady of hope," and the montonera--and Peronism as portrayed in the films of Alan Parker (1996) and Juan Carlos Desanzo (1996), the time has come for photo albums. Several such books have appeared over the last two years, but Tomás de Elía and Juan Pablo Queiroz's offering is perhaps the most impressive so far. Although the book's introduction, written by Naomi Ramallo, a history professor at the University of Buenos Aires, does not shed any new light on Eva Perón's character or actions, it commendably emphasizes the different interpretations--academic, journalistic, and political--of the image of one of the most charismatic women leaders of the twentieth century. This is not, strictly speaking, a biography, although it serves that purpose as accompanying text for the story told by the pictures; throughout the book, the photo captions add supplementary information about the life of Eva Duarte de Perón.

Development and Validation of Volume Prediction Model for Balangeran (Shorea balangeran (Korth.) Burck) In Central Kalimantan
Authors: Qirom Muhammad Abdul Qirom 
Published: February 2024

Estimation model of tree volume must be high in accuracy and precisions to estimate stand potential precisely. This paper determines and validates the estimation model of Shorea balangeran volume grown in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. There were three phases of model development which include 52 trees for model progress, 23 trees for model validation, and 10 trees for external model validation. The calculation model used linear and non-linear models with diameter, diameter and height, and diameter and height combination as independent variables. The criteria of the best model was determined by statistical analyses such as coefficient determination, relative and aggregative deviation, bias, precisions and accuracy of estimation, AIC (Akaike’s Information Criterion). The result of the study showed that the model with diameter as single variable was not complied with the selected best model criteria (aggregative deviation; AD< 1 % and relative deviation: RD< 8 %). The addition of tree height on model estimation increased the coefficient determination of 6.54% and the model with diameter and height as independent variable was satisfied with the criteria (AD and RD criteria). The best model of Balangeran was with coefficient determination of 89.77 %. However, the best model was not applicable for other sites with different stand characteristics

Published: February 2024

The purpose of this study was to determine the weed density and the dominant species of weeds in Malapari (Pongamia pinnata (L). Pierre) agroforestry. The study was conducted in Patutrejo Village, Grabag District, Purworejo Regency. The method used is single plot method in malapari agroforestry, as a comparison of observations of weeds on empty land that is not planted. Weed sample collection was carried out by the quadratic method measuring 1 m x 1 m as many as 3 plots placed in malapari agroforestry and empty land diagonally. Observations were repeated 3 times so that there were 18 observation plots. The results showed that weed density in malapari agroforestry (29.95) was lower than empty land (54.17). The dominant species of weeds in both malapari agroforestry and empty land is Eulalia amaura (Buese) with Important Value Index (IVI) of 36.40 % and 43.39 %. This species is a pioneer weed and fast growing, so monitoring and control are needed so that the weed population is not economically disserve.
Buah Buton in Traditional House Interior: Representation of Women's Role and Influence
Authors: Maamor Fakhrur Razi , Kahn Sabzali Musa , Taif Basitah 
Published: February 2024

Buah buton is a three-dimensional wooden carving as an interior object in the traditional house of Negeri Sembilan. The purpose of this article is to establish a link between the buah buton in Luak Tanah Mengandung, Negeri Sembilan and the position of women who connect the legacy and leadership in the Adat Perpatih, a customary community law, and how such a relationship manifests itself within the traditional house's interior. The function of buah buton was revealed through fieldwork and interviews with community leaders, which were then combined into a narrative that represented the function of buah buton. The findings revealed the presence of buah buton design hung in certain positions in certain houses, mainly in women-dominated areas. The design and position of the buah buton represent the concept of feminism, which refers to the nature and character of women applied to the visual shape and position of the subject. This aspect is associated with the house’s interior, such as the mother's house and tiang seri, which represents the unique characteristics of women and their influence in the Adat Perpatih. Through exploration of the psychological and cultural aspects of the mother's house within Adat Perpatih, this article intends to gain a deeper understanding of the societal framework. This inquiry will shed light on the distinct ways in which these environments shape and reflect women’s pivotal roles and influences in their society.
Establishment and validation of a heart failure risk prediction model for elderly patients after coronary rotational atherectomy based on machine learning
Authors: Zhang Lixiang , Zhou Xiaojuan , Cao Jiaoyu 
Published: January 2024

Objective
To develop and validate a heart failure risk prediction model for elderly patients after coronary rotational atherectomy based on machine learning methods.

Methods
A retrospective cohort study was conducted to select 303 elderly patients with severe coronary calcification as the study subjects. According to the occurrence of postoperative heart failure, the study subjects were divided into the heart failure group (n = 53) and the non-heart failure group (n = 250). Retrospective collection of clinical data from the study subjects during hospitalization. After processing the missing values in the original data and addressing sample imbalance using Adaptive Synthetic Sampling (ADASYN) method, the final dataset consists of 502 samples: 250 negative samples (i.e., patients not suffering from heart failure) and 252 positive samples (i.e., patients with heart failure). According to a 7:3 ratio, the datasets of 502 patients were randomly divided into a training set (n = 351) and a validation set (n = 151). On the training set, logistic regression (LR), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), support vector machine (SVM), and lightweight gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) algorithms were used to construct heart failure risk prediction models; Evaluate model performance on the validation set by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, F1-score, and prediction accuracy.

Result
A total of 17.49% of 303 patients occured postoperative heart failure. The AUC of LR, XGBoost, SVM, and LightGBM models in the training set were 0.872, 1.000, 0.699, and 1.000, respectively. After 10 fold cross validation, the AUC was 0.863, 0.972, 0.696, and 0.963 in the training set, respectively. Among them, XGBoost had the highest AUC and better predictive performance, while SVM models had the worst performance. The XGBoost model also showed good predictive performance in the validation set (AUC = 0.972, 95% CI [0.951–0.994]). The Shapley additive explanation (SHAP) method suggested that the six characteristic variables of blood cholesterol, serum creatinine, fasting blood glucose, age, triglyceride and NT-proBNP were important positive factors for the occurrence of heart failure, and LVEF was important negative factors for the occurrence of heart failure.

Conclusion
The seven characteristic variables of blood cholesterol, blood creatinine, fasting blood glucose, NT-proBNP, age, triglyceride and LVEF are all important factors affecting the occurrence of heart failure. The prediction model of heart failure risk for elderly patients after CRA based on the XGBoost algorithm is superior to SVM, LightGBM and the traditional LR model. This model could be used to assist clinical decision-making and improve the adverse outcomes of patients after CRA.
Distribution of radiographic osteoarthritis between the right and left hands, hips, and knees

Published: May 2004

AbstractObjectiveTo investigate whether radiographic osteoarthritis (OA) is asymmetric and greater on the right side than on the left side in the hands, hips, and knees.MethodsParticipants were 489 individuals with posteroanterior hand radiographs from a family study of nodal OA, 1,715 community‐derived individuals who had undergone intravenous urography with views of both hips, and 1,729 community‐derived individuals with weight‐bearing fully extended tibiofemoral (TF) joint and skyline patellofemoral (PF) joint radiographs. All radiographs were evaluated for global OA grade, osteophytes, and joint space narrowing (JSN). Minimum joint space width (JSW) was measured at the hip and knee. Odds ratios (ORs) for global OA on the right side versus the left side were calculated. Osteophytes and JSN were compared by Wilcoxon's signed rank test, and the JSW was compared by paired t‐test.ResultsGlobal OA was more prevalent on the right side at the distal interphalangeal joints (OR 1.57; 95% confidence interval 1.22, 2.02) and the TF joint (OR 1.24; 95% confidence interval 1.01, 1.52). Osteophyte scores for the fingers were greater on the right side, but JSN was symmetric. At the hip, there were no right–left differences in osteophytosis or JSN, but the JSW was smaller on the left. At the TF joint, the medial compartment was narrower and the lateral compartment wider on the right side, and osteophyte scores were greater on the right side. At the PF joint, there were no right–left differences in osteophytes, and for lone PF joint OA, there were no differences in JSN or the JSW.ConclusionThis discordance in symmetry suggests that the relative importance of biomechanical factors in the pathogenesis of OA is site‐specific and may be discordant for cartilage and bone.
Basic calcium phosphate crystal–induced prostaglandin E2 production in human fibroblasts: Role of cyclooxygenase 1, cyclooxygenase 2, and interleukin‐1β

Published: May 2004

AbstractObjectiveTo elucidate the mechanism of basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystal–induced prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production in human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs), to identify the signaling pathway involved in the induction of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX‐2) messenger RNA (mRNA) by BCP crystals, to examine the effect of BCP crystals on interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) mRNA expression, and to investigate the potential of phosphocitrate to abrogate the BCP crystal–induced effects.MethodsPGE2 levels were quantified using a commercial enzyme immunoassay kit. COX‐2 and COX‐1 transcript levels were quantified using real‐time reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR). Induction of IL‐1β and COX‐2 mRNA was examined by end‐point RT‐PCR. COX‐2 protein expression was assessed by Western blotting.ResultsPGE2 production measured 4 and 30 hours after BCP crystal treatment was higher in BCP crystal–treated (mean ± SEM 1,891 ± 273 pg/μg and 1,792 ± 233 pg/μg, respectively) than in untreated (88 ± 5 pg/μg and 205 ± 93 pg/μg, respectively) HFFs. The PGE2 produced after 4 hours was sensitive to inhibition with NS398, a selective COX‐2 inhibitor, implying that it was COX‐2 mediated, whereas the PGE2 produced at 30 hours could not be completely inhibited by NS398. Real‐time RT‐PCR demonstrated a 23‐fold increase in COX‐2 mRNA that was maximal at 4 hours, whereas analysis of mRNA for COX‐1 showed up‐regulation of transcript peaking at 24 hours poststimulation (1.75‐fold increase). The protein kinase C and phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase signal‐transduction inhibitors bisindolylmaleimide I and LY294002, respectively, blocked BCP crystal–induced COX‐2 mRNA in HFFs. In addition, BCP crystals were found to up‐regulate the proinflammatory cytokine IL‐1β (maximal at 8 hours). The induction of both COX‐2 and IL‐1β by BCP crystals was attenuated when the cells were treated with phosphocitrate.ConclusionThese findings indicate that BCP crystals may be an important amplifier of PGE2 production through induction of the COX enzymes and the proinflammatory cytokine IL‐1β.
