Published: October 2023

Modern territories of the Semipalatinsk Test Site (STS) are not sufficiently involved in economic activities due to environmental conditions and lack of appropriate infrastructure on them. However, sooner or later they can be used, for example, for development of available mineral and building resources on these territories. Since in these lands the geological environment contains many nuclear cavities that significantly affect the mechanical stability of the surface layers, special studies are required in order to assess the subsurface for their carrying capacity for various infrastructure and economic facilities.This paper presents data on assessing the compliance of the Balapan site boundaries with regard to the development of environmentally significant post-explosive processes. The boundaries of the site, which contain only territories posing direct ecological threat to economic activity, are proposed.

Uluslararası Göçün Hedef ve Kaynak Ülke Üzerindeki Etkileri (Rusya-Orta Asya Örneği)
Authors: Ergeshkyzy Aziza 
Published: October 2023

Tarihin her döneminde, dünyanın çeşitli bölgelerinde yaşanan yoksulluk, doğal afetler, savaş ve çatışmalar insanların başka bölgelere göç etmesini zorlayan nedenler arasında yer almıştır. Katılımı her geçen gün artmakta olan bu hareketlilik hem kaynak, hem de hedef ülkeyi, toplumu, bireyi doğrudan ve dolaylı karşılıklı olarak etkileyerek olumlu-olumsuz birçok sonuçlar doğurmaktadır. Uzmanlara göre, dışarıdan gelen göç akımının hedef ülke için sosyo-ekonomik sonuçları bakımından göçmen işçilerin ülkede istihdam açığının giderilmesi, ekonominin birçok sektöründe ekonomik göstergelerin büyümesi ve bütçeye katkısı gibi olumlu sonuçları doğuracağı, kaynak ülke için ise işsizliği azaltacağı, döviz girdilerini arttıracağı öne sürülmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra, göçün her iki ülke için de olumsuz olduğu yönleri de bulunmaktadır. Bu bağlamda uluslararası göçmenlerin önemli kısmının ekonominin gölge sektöründe istihdam edildiği için vergi ödememesi, göç alan ülkenin mali şartlarını olumsuz etkilemesi gibi durumların yaşandığı da bir gerçektir. Bu olumsuz yaklaşımların aksine Rusya'daki demografik krizi Orta Asya topraklarından gelen göçmenlerin büyük ölçüde hafifletmesi, yerel halk için prestijli olmayan ve talep edilmeyen boş pozisyonların söz konusu göçmenler tarafından doldurularak hizmet sektörünün gelişmesine katkı sağlaması, göçmen işçilerin çoğu yasa dışı çalıştığı için, ucuz işgücü temin edilmesi gibi durumlar hedef ülkeye büyük bir kazançlar sağlamaktadır.
Kaynak ülke bakımından nitelikli uzmanların ülkeden ayrılması, bilimdeki entelektüel potansiyelin bozulmasına, çalışma çağındaki genç nüfusun kitlesel göçü kaynak ülkede demografik sorunlara, ailelerin parçalanmasına, sokak çocuklarının artmasına yol açmaktadır. Diğer yandan göçmenlerin yurt dışında iken becerilerini, genel eğitim ve kültür seviyelerini geliştirmelerine, ülkesine döndükten sonra küçük ve orta ölçekli işletmeler kurarak kaynak ülkede orta sınıfın oluşumuna, kazandıkları gelirin toplumun yaşam standardının yükselmesine, göçmen olarak yaşadıkları ülkede iş bağlantıları kurarak ticaret, üretim gibi alanlarda ortak girişimler gerçekleştirebilmelerine olanak sağlayabilmektedir.Yaşanmakta olan bu etkilerin çok yönlü bir şekilde ele alınması, göçün sonuçları itibariyle daha iyi anlaşılabilmesine ve göç nedeniyle ortaya çıkan sorunların çözüme kavuşturulmasına imkân sağlayacaktır.
Change and Immunity to Change: Personal and Political
Authors: Mullen Peter F. 
Published: October 2023

ABSTRACT
The article explores how constructive developmental theory may explain the origin of the current political crisis and provide a long-term solution. Two levels of adult development rely on fundamentally different sources to make meaning. Each views its own way of meaning-making as correct and others as inauthentic. The lack of a common ground for dialogue has caused “epistemic chaos” and a seemingly intractable political stalemate dangerous to democracy. The first step toward a solution is to understand the problem and the resistance to change. The second is to provide lifelong, experiential education to foster human development. In the work world, deliberately developmental education is already occurring more widely than commonly realized, with encouraging results.
The Fascination of Imitation: What Social Neuroscience Reveals about Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Authors: Jackson Tony 
Published: October 2023

ABSTRACT
Since the 1990s, social neuroscience has established imitation as an unconscious, constitutive element of human identity; to the point that one may reasonably say that human identity is imitative identity. This research has profound implications for the human fascination with imitation in general, as well as with specific kinds of imitation. For the imitative identity, imitation human beings are uniquely, but strangely fascinating. This may readily be seen from the long history of stories about humanly made imitation humans. Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? is a major entry in the history of such stories. This article shows how social-neuroscientific findings about imitative identity can help us understand Dick’s novel.
A Graveyard Smash: Analyzing Embodied Memories in Lincoln in the Bardo
Authors: Vorbeck Cara 
Published: October 2023

ABSTRACT
This article explores the concept of embodied memory in literary fiction and aims to illustrate some of the many angles from which it can be examined. After reviewing three different approaches to understanding embodied personal memory, it argues in line with contemporary perspectives on embodiment and 4E cognition (Caracciolo and Kukkonen) that a combined approach of cognitive and more traditional perspectives on the concept has significant benefits for analyzing embodied memories in literary texts. A case study of Lincoln in the Bardo (2017) is presented to illustrate these claims in practice. The analysis shows that a medial or symbolic approach to embodied memory cannot contain the novel’s complex bodies on its own and that a cognitive perspective adds an analytic layer which is essential to forming an understanding of its personal as well as collective mechanics of remembrance.
Olas migratorias y las lecciones del caso español.
Authors: Abedrapo Jaime 
Published: October 2023

Chile al igual que las democracias liberales en los tiempos de la postmodernidad enfrentan retos tales como el cambio climático, el acceso fuentes de energía renovables y no contaminantes y la inmigración. Al respecto analizamos la perspectiva de las políticas que se han implementado para contener el descontrol inmigratorio desde la perspectiva normativa y la articulación de las políticas públicas del caso español.
Los fenómenos inmigratorios están siendo entendidos no desde sus causas, sino más desde políticas coyunturales como veremos en el caso español.
Nuevo cuestionario de evaluación del ambiente laboral – salud mental CEAL-SM / SUSESO
Authors: Pérez-Franco Juan , Candia Macarena , Soto Marco 
Published: October 2023

Introducción: En Chile se mide el riesgo psicosocial laboral con el cuestionario SUSESO/ISTAS21, instrumento validado en 2008 y de aplicación obligatoria en todos los lugares de trabajo desde 2013. Desde entonces se ha hecho necesaria la puesta al día del instrumento, incorporando nuevas dimensiones, eliminando otras y, en general, tomando en cuenta la experiencia de los expertos y usuarios del cuestionario.
Materiales y Métodos: Se consideró como base el cuestionario internacional COPSOQ III. Se aplicaron las escalas de riesgo del COPSOQ III, traducidas, sometidas a entrevistas cognitivas, más las escalas de salud mental GHQ-12 y de vulnerabilidad en el trabajo, y otras preguntas generales y de datos sociodemográficos. Se diseñó una muestra de hogares probabilística, estratificada, de conglomerados y multi-etápica, con distribución no proporcional, en Antofagasta, Valparaíso, Santiago, Concepción y Puerto Montt – Puerto Varas. Se aplicó el método de análisis factorial exploratorio (factores comunes, rotación oblimin) al conjunto de las respuestas del cuestionario, análisis factorial confirmatorio, alfa de Cronbach, correlación test-retest, prueba de funcionamiento diferencial del ítem. Todo el proceso de análisis final se discutió con un grupo de expertos.
Resultados: La solución factorial más adecuada fue de 12 factores, tanto por los resultados de las pruebas estadísticas como desde la teoría y la operacionalidad. Se calcularon los niveles de riesgo individual para cada trabajador/a.
Discusión: Se pone a disposición de la comunidad un instrumento válido y confiable para la medición del riesgo psicosocial en el trabajo, con 12 dimensiones, y con sus valores normales para Chile.
Exilio teatral chileno en Suecia: Igor Cantillana, antecedentes del Teatro Sandino
Authors: Albornoz Farías Adolfo 
Published: October 2023

El exilio ha sido un objeto predilecto de los Estudios Culturales y ha conformado un emergente y específico campo propio de trabajo
académico: los Estudios de Exilios. La última oleada de expatriaciones políticas del Cono Sur, que estalló durante los años setenta del siglo pasado, fue inédita por su masividad, extensión temporal y espacial, transversalidad y efecto diaspórico. En este horizonte, este trabajo presenta los antecedentes chilenos de un caso que todavía no ha sido estudiado: el Teatro Latinoamericano Sandino, agrupación fundada en Estocolmo, en 1979, por Igor Cantillana, actor chileno exiliado en Suecia desde 1977. Junto con compartir material testimonial inédito relativo a la trayectoria de este referente del teatro latinoamericano, este escrito quiere esbozar el potencial rendimiento de los Estudios de Exilios para el área de los Estudios Teatrales.
Teatro chileno del 70: la continuidad utópica
Authors: Rostollan-Sinet Corentin 
Published: October 2023

Producto de ocho años de investigación sobre la actividad teatral que se ha desarrollado dentro de los campos de concentración chilenos en los primeros años de la dictadura cívico-militar, el presente artículo se propone retomar un diálogo historiográfico inconcluso en torno a la década del setenta y su significado para la historia teatral nacional. Revisitando las teorizaciones predominantes en el campo de la historia del teatro en dictadura, y cruzándolas con los hallazgos de un estudio profundo sobre el fenómeno teatral concentracionario en Chile, propone un nuevo marco historiográfico para entender al teatro chileno de ese periodo, postulando la posibilidad de una continuidad. Volviendo a la importancia de la utopía como un concepto clave para entender la especificidad de este segmento de la historia del teatro chileno y sus fracciones marginales, este texto sugiere nuevas lecturas
históricas, filosóficas y políticas a cincuenta años del Golpe.
Efecto otoprotector de N acetilcisteína en pacientes sometidos a quimioterapia con cisplatino. Revisión de la literatura
Authors: Rubio M. Fabián , Torrente A. Mariela 
Published: October 2023

The aim of this publication is to update information regarding auditory damage caused by cisplatin and its possible prevention with N acetylcysteine (NAC). Cisplatin is a drug used in the treatment of various cancers. It has various adverse effects including ototoxicity
. Ototoxicity manifests as sensorineural high tone hearing loss variable intensities, usually bilateral, irreversible, and occurs primarily owing to the formation of oxygen derived free radicals that trigger apoptosis. High frequency audiometry and distortion-product otoacoustic emissions are the most sensitive tests for the detection of cisplatin ototoxicity and they are comparable. NAC is a thiol compound used as a mucolytic that can prevent ototoxicity by several mechanisms . In vitro, it has been shown to decrease the damage of inner ear hair cells and auditory neurons . In humans, oral and intratympanic NAC has been tested concomitant to
cisplatin chemotherapy with variable results, tending to show less hearing damage produced by cisplatin.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a functional disorder characterized by abdominal discomfort associated with changes in bowel habit and increased intestinal sensitivity. It is one of the most common disorders of digestive health in Chile as well as in the world. Although the pathophysiological mechanisms of IBS have yet to be fully established, it is known that (epi-) genetic factors are involved in the development of the disorder. Bcl3 (B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 3) is a regulatory protein of the intestinal inflammatory response, specifically, with regard to the signaling pathways of NF-kB (Nuclear Factor-kB). Among the variability of the human genome, the gene encoding Bcl3 contains the polymorphism SNPs rs2927488 (variants A/G) which has been associated with susceptibility to developing Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). Furthermore, the presence of this polymorphic variant has been correlated with increased
levels of Bcl3 gene expression in patients with Crohn’s Disease. Our laboratory is focused on understanding the potential relationship between Bcl3 and IBS. Our preliminary studies describe an increased expression of Bcl3 at the intestinal mucosal epithelium in IBS patients with a diarrheal-phenotype (IBS-D). We are now interested to investigate if the presence of the variant SNP rs2927488(A/G) is a susceptibility factor for IBS development and to understand the significance of its relationship with Bcl3 expression, in Chilean IBS patients. In this review, we focus primarily on the relationship between rs2927488(A/G) polymorphism of Bcl3 gene, its protein expression and its mechanisms of control over the inflammatory response.

Spontaneous coronary dissection (SCD) is a rare cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in patients with no risk factors, usually described in young women within delivery period. The test of choice to approach diagnosis is coronary angiography, which could result therapeutic as it achieves myocardial revascularization though angioplasty. Occasionally, complementary radiologic techniques are required for diagnosis, as well as other treatments such as coronary bypass surgery (CBS). The prognosis of successfully revascularized patients is favorable, generally with no recurrence. We report the case of a 25 year-old woman, with no medical
records, who experienced two episodes of ACS; first after exercise and two days later while she was at rest,revascularized in our hospital due to a double SCD that required CBS with a propitious evolution and remaining asymptomatic trough a six-year follow up.
India's Financial Shape-up: PM Jan Dhan Yojana - Critical Review
Authors: Gupta Nidhi , Mathur Mukesh 
Published: October 2023

The 'Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana' (PMJDY), introduced in August 2014, stands as a flagship initiative by the Indian Government to promote financial inclusion. This paper undertakes a critical examination of the impact and effectiveness of PMJDY in shaping India's financial landscape over time. The program's primary goal was to extend financial services, including banking and insurance, to the sections of India's population that were either unbanked or underbanked. It aimed to foster financial empowerment, mitigate economic disparities, and encourage a transition towards a cashless economy. This critical analysis employs a multi-faceted approach to assess PMJDY. Firstly, it evaluates the level of financial inclusion achieved through the program, scrutinizing metrics such as the number of accounts opened, the reach of banking services in both rural and urban areas, and the accessibility of banking facilities. Secondly, the paper examines PMJDY's effectiveness in enhancing financial literacy and awareness among its beneficiaries. Thirdly, it delves into the program's impact on reducing leakages in social welfare schemes by implementing direct benefit transfers. Fourthly, it explores the role of technology and digitization in extending the program's coverage and improving its efficiency. Moreover, this review addresses the challenges and constraints faced by PMJDY, encompassing issues related to financial sustainability, dormant accounts, and service quality. It also contemplates the broader implications of the program concerning its contribution to economic growth, poverty alleviation, and the overall financial well-being of the nation. In conclusion, this critical assessment offers insights into both the strengths and weaknesses of PMJDY while presenting recommendations for further enhancements and policy adjustments. It sheds light on the program's role in shaping India's financial landscape, its influence on financial inclusion, and its potential to reshape the nation's economic prospects. Ultimately, this analysis seeks to contribute to well-informed discussions regarding the future of financial inclusion in India and the significance of PMJDY as a pivotal driver in reshaping the country's financial landscape.
