Klein, Alejandro
- Abstract
This paper attempts to discuss some of the challenges ahead for the so-called ageing society, emphasising two axes of analysis. One refers to the fact that it is not enough just to indicate demographic, social, population or other trends to guarantee acceptance in the social imaginary of the ageing society. The quantitative aspect is a necessary but not sufficient condition for accepting the challenges still pending in the ageing society. This point is highlighted by another axis of analysis, which has to do with the "resurrection" of ageism since the health and political events surrounding the coronavirus, which once again placed older adults in stereotypical roles of decrepitude and ruin. All of the above indicates that a hard work of social, governmental and state intervention has to be projected in order to create the minimum foundations of the ageing society. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

CHARITY , *CHARITIES - Abstract
In this paper I will compare the philosophical notions of "active love" and "charity" present in the works The Brothers Karamazov (1879-1880) by Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881) and El Cristo de Espaldas (Backwards Christ; 1952) by Eduardo Caballero Calderón (1910-1993). I will analyze both perspectives within the historical context of their respective periods, as well as within their own narrative structures. I also consider them as personal expressions of metaphysical-social visions whose roots can be found in the religious and philosophical works of authors as Vladimir Solovyov, in the case of Dostoevsky, and Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, in the case of Caballero Calderón. The main goal is to demonstrate how both positions provide an ethical and collective proposal against the selfishness and violence of the world, through an approach that intermingles a permanent social action and a spiritual metamorphosis. Two visions that, I trust, continue to have relevance for the contemporary reader. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

SECULARIZATION - Abstract
In the context of the correlations between literature and secularization in Spanish American Modernism, in this paper I aim to identify the main ways in which Clemente Palma questions traditional morality in Cuentos Malévolos. By analyzing first some paratexts of the book, four main ways are identified for the revision of that morality, a rereading that is explained from the positivist and Nietzschean parameters that Palma takes as a reference. At the same time, and as a counterpoint, an attempt is made to discover some of the contradictions of this revision, which are due to both the limitations of Palma's own ideological framework and to the demands of the secularization discourse itself, which always needs the sacred to define itself.

Neoliberal policies have impacted transportation and mobility. This paper analyzes the trends and structures resulting from the mobility of the Renca commune, a pericentric territory of Greater Santiago in the period between 2001 and 2021, through the analysis of the Origin Destination Surveys and an Origin Destination Survey of own interception applied during the covid-19 pandemic. The aforementioned was developed to obtain the mobility tendencies that these individuals present with the other communes of Greater Santiago. The results express a motorization below the levels of other communes of Greater Santiago; the existence of a 'dependency' of some routes of the public transport system that use the urban highway network. Mobilities are mainly developed due to access to services and education, where these dynamics and destination spaces have not changed substantially despite the covid-19 context in which the interception survey was applied. There is a contrast between the available concession infrastructure, the low access to automobiles, the spatial friction of the infrastructure, and the persistence of mobility patterns.

LITERARY form , *MAYORS , *GESTURE - Abstract
Polymetry, the art of using different metric forms in the same literary composition (Paraíso), is one of the main features of Spanish Golden Age theater and is linked to Calderón de la Barca's authorial intent in his plays. In this paper, we propose an analysis of La vida es sueño, El alcalde de Zalamea, and El mágico prodigioso with the purpose of identifying the compelling reasons for polymetry's adoption as a defining stylistic feature of Spanish Golden Age theather. Thus, we seek to identify the different relations between the metric forms used and the dramatic conflict of the plays, considering that using one metric-strophic variety or another is not chosen at random, but rather an intentional gesture of the author seeking to establish intrinsic relationships between metric forms and dramatic action.

TRANSLATIONS of poetry , *AUTHORSHIP , *TRANSLATING & interpreting , *TRANSLATORS , *CORPORA - Abstract
The aim of this paper is to study the translational strategies to address the problem of repetition in the translation of Homeric poetry, specifically that of the Iliad. Although repetition is a fundamental stylistic feature in any text, in Homeric formulaic language it is a constitutive feature, which is not (only) used as a literary device but permeates the poetic expression in all its forms. Therefore, analyzing and understanding the strategies that translators have used to reproduce this aspect in Spanish is a key element in the study of Homeric translation, and a fundamental basis for further work in both translation analysis and translation itself. For this article, a restricted corpus of three translations (Segalá y Estalella, Crespo Güemes, Pérez) has been selected and three different modalities of repetition are analyzed: complete passages of several verses, formulae, and a recurrent expression.

POETRY studies , *TWENTY-first century , *EVALUATION methodology , *TWENTIETH century , *QUANTITATIVE research - Abstract
This article discusses the quantitative evaluation methods of lexical and rhythmic exactness of verse translations. It describes the practical approaches to this problem developed within the Russian-speaking academia of the 20th and 21st centuries. The best-known method was proposed by the eminent scholar Mikhail L. Gasparov (1975, 1986, 1989, etc.) to evaluate the lexical correspondence between literal translations (verbum pro verbum) and metrical translations based on them (indirect translation). Later, Gasparov and other researchers applied this method to compare original poems and their direct translations. Apart from Gasparov's approach to the problem, the article presents related essays by Oleksandr M. Finkel (1966, published in 2001, 2006). The paper's second section demonstrates the possibilities of quantitative analysis on the example of three Russian metrical translations of Federico Garcia Lorca's poem "Reyerta" (1926) by Valentin Ya. Parnach (1940), Anatoly M. Geleskul (1968), and Pavel M. Grushko (1975). In addition, the article proposes a brief excursus on the history of the formalist theory of the poetic text and poetic translation, which should be considered the theoretical basis of comparative-quantitative studies of translated poetry.

This paper proposes an interpretation of the intersection of extractivism and frontiers. It explores the effects of the progressive settling of luxury wine tourism and protected areas over small livestock producers associated to grazing systems. We choose a locality at the foothills of the Andes cordillera (Uco Valley), focusing on the site called Manzano Histórico (Historical Apple Tree). The combined use of different research tools (secondary data and documents analysis, in-depth interviews, direct observation, and the production of cartography) permits to observe that these territories --the living space for cattle producers-- have been progressively incorporated to capital and conservation, especially since the xxi century. At present, they express multiple and diverse compression situations on direct producers, that lead in turn to a remodeling of cattle-raising activities keeping pace with high-end tourism. This paper shows that high-end tourism and nature conservation are not opposed but rather mutually reinforcing activities. Also, that direct producers are not victims in lack of agency, since they reshape their productive profiles to take part in the tourism market highlighting their particular traits.

Colombia is one of the most inequal countries in Latin America, which at the same time, is the most inequal region of the world. Even though this situation is discouraging it is not new, the difference lays on the importance that this situation has been taken in the political agenda in the nation, awakening multiple expectative between the citizens who has been the eternal losers: the poor. This paper focuses on the challenges that the new government of Gustavo Petro faces in matter of the inequality and poverty that affects over the half of the population in Colombia, at the same time provides a context of the Colombian case in the conjuncture of global and regional socioeconomic changes that incident on the chances of fulfill structural transformations at the social policy. Although this research acknowledges a large spectrum of inequalities existing in the territory (gender, generational, ethnic, racial) it focusses on the income inequality. This analysis takes place based on the data of specialized sources on the subject and the monitoring fluctuations of inequality in Colombia in the last decade. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
After cardiovascular diseases, cancer, a non-communicable pathology, has been considered the second cause of death each year globally and as the most important barrier to increasing life expectancy in the 21st century. Advances of great relevance have been made in its prevention and treatment, however, there is still a long way to go to achieve an eff ective treatment for each type of cancer. This paper describes approaches to reposition and synthesis of hybrid molecules with potential antineoplastic activity. To obtain the key intermediate aldehyde, the Dess-Martin oxidation methodology was used, which was coupled with the corresponding ketones using LDA. The fi nal hybrid compounds were obtained as a racemic mixture. The in vitro antiproliferative activity of the fi nal compounds was evaluated against eight cell lines derived from human solid tumors, and four non-cancerous cell lines. The compound 11d turned out to be the most eff ective and with the highest safety index. The results suggested that these compounds could block the cell cycle and induce apoptosis and death in CCRF-CEM cells in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a state of the discussion on the social studies of memory in relation to different types of socio-natural disasters. The objective of the research was to examine the scientific production in the conceptual triad memory-disaster-identity to facilitate the understanding of the field of study and encourage research interest. To this end, it reviewed academic production between 2000 and 2020 at the national, Latin American, and global levels. Eighty-three texts were compiled and analyzed, showing concern for assessing the incidence of the disaster in the configuration of the processes of remembering and forgetting of the affected individuals, of society and of the disruptive event itself. The results show that, although significant progress has been made in the twenty years analyzed, the disciplinary field is still fragile in countries with a high propensity for disaster risk. Thus, the main conclusion that can be drawn is related to the insufficiency of studies that recover the memories of socio-natural disasters, that collect the voices of their victims, and that vindicate them as a form of material and symbolic reparation, after the disruptive event that transforms the existence of those affected.

Elemental impurities in Active Substances: a general perspective The elemental impurities must meet high quality requirements, in order to achieve this goal several analytical parameters such as a low impurity content is the capital importance. In this situation, several types of impurities can be mentioned for example: organic and inorganic impurities, mutagenic compounds, residual solvents, and elemental impurities. The relevance of the impurities is high because these compounds are toxic for the patient and can cause adverse effects in patients therefore they should be limited. Specifically the elemental impurities are residues of metal elements that come from the unit operations used in the manufacturing process of an active substance. These contaminant are classified in the ICHQ3D guide in four groups according to their toxicity and their presence in an active substance is explained by the synthesis process (raw materials, solvents, water) or by the wear of the productive equipment (reactors, centrifuges, dryers, mills). In order to determine the quantities of these compounds analytical methods are a fundamental part, since they must be sufficiently sensitive and specific. The evaluation through a risk analysis provides the theoretical information of the potential metallic impurities present in an active substance; a case study exemplifies this section. Another important aspect to take in account is the control of the presence of metal impurities in synthetic processes, so having an overview of the control methods is a paramount importance in order to establish the appropriate control strategy. In this section, a reported case is described. Finally, general trends in purification of an active substance provide an insight into developments in this area. This paper includes a brief review of the previously mentioned topics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The American storyteller Grace Paley (December 11, 1922-August 22, 2007) has been known for her political activism and her ability to construct powerful voices which recollected female, migrant, and urban collective experiences in post-world war ii America. In her stories, Paley emphasizes the act of storytelling as a tool for creating a collective shared experience out of individual characters, making the personal and domestic collective and political. In this paper, I will analyze the role of Paley's most prominent narrator, Faith Darwin, bridging the gap between the private and public urban spheres in three different and evolutive stories: "A Conversation with My Father" (1972), "The Long-Distance Runner" and "Faith in a Tree" (1974). These stories exemplify how Faith uses different strategies in storytelling with the purpose of achieving personal identity and empowerment through communal identification and the recollection of familiar experiences.

Yellow pitahaya (Selenicereus megalanthus) has become an alternative for agricultural production in several municipalities of the province of Lengupá, in the department of Boyacá, Colombia, with an expanding and consolidating international market due to its status as an exotic fruit. This paper presents the results of a mixed methods research conducted with producers affiliated with the PITAFCOL organization in the municipality of Miraflores. The characteristics of the fruit and its market were described, and the socioeconomic conditions of the members of the association, as well as their attitudes of trust, reciprocity, and solidarity under the perspective of social capital (bonding type) were characterized. The conclusions point to the need to strengthen the trust within the organization for its consolidation, improve the organizational practices and seek new allies for processing the fruit to generate added value to the product, as well as alternative economic activities.

The aim of this article was to review the relationship between narrative and information inside the Commission for the Clarification of Truth, Coexistence and Non-Repetition (CEV, from its Spanish acronym). In addition, this article examines the implications of the use of narrative to build truth, specifically the truth that the CEV is seeking, and elucidate the approach of truth in which it is situated. For these purposes, we analyze the method used by the CEV to collect testimonies and upload those to the Mission Information System (SIM, from its Spanish acronym). In this paper, we identify the SIM's scope and limits, and discuss the Commission's statements about the characteristics of its final report in light of the use of information and the narrative strategy to build truth. We concluded that the relationship between the categories of narrative and information reflects the epistemological problems inherent to the social sciences regarding the tension between objectivity and subjectivity. Furthermore, the validity of the CEV's elaborations will depend on the rigor of contrasting different versions and sources, rather than the amount of information it collects. Likewise, we highlight the relevance of the role that SIM played in opening up to new technical and methodological tools for uncovering the truth and monitoring human rights in Colombia, and the rest of the world. Nonetheless, there needs to be consideration for the complexities and dilemmas that information sciences deal with when analyzing social reality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, three case studies are analyzed in Uruguay at the basin level, to identify the factors that favor the flood phenomenon. Transformations in land use and eventually climate change are considered. Over a 30-year period, land use modifications were evaluated using a Geographic Information System, and the variability of rainfall and river levels was analyzed. The three basins show completely different behavior from their land use change, and show increasing trends in rainfall over the period analyzed. It is evident that land use change is one of the most influential factors in the increase of flooding in urban areas. These transformations are mostly related to the exploitation of soil for the generation of commodities for export and generate modifications in the agrarian territories in Uruguay.

This paper seeks to generate an analytical approach to Graciela Huinao's novel Desde el fogón de una casa de putas williche (2010) and Javier Milanca Olivares' volume of short stories Xampurria, somos del lof de los que no tienen lof (2015). The study proposes two convergent inquiries: one is linked to the presence of epew --as a discursive genre specific to the Mapuche oral tradition-- in the narrative work of both authors; the other deals with the meaning of the notions of xampurria (mestizo) and kawin (party) that these writings propose. The hypothesis is that both the epew, as a discursive genre with a ludic and recreational function, and the notions of xampurria and kawin, are configured as a positionality of resistance and in clear opposition to the conception that a certain wingka (white, non-indigenous) tradition holds of the Mapuche as a sad and dejected subject.

Wiñay Mallki and Hugo Jamioy Juagibioy's poetry allows us to understand some socio-political dimensions of the indigenous literature that is recognized as palabras mayores (ancestral words). The purpose of this article is to contribute to the knowledge of their works starting with a historical overview of the Colombian Southwest to shed a light on the common intentions as well as the encounters of these two poets, from the Yanakuna and Camëntsá people. The text has a bioethnographic approach to the two indigenous authors to establish the relationship of their works with the political and ancestral struggle waged by their indigenous communities. This paper showcases the decolonizing power of the poetries of the two creators from Cauca and Putumayo for the Colombian literary field. Finally, it is important to us to support the opinion of indigenous literatures as oralituras or major words of the native people. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In production systems there is a close relationship between producers and nature. This situation has been studied within human ecology, so the objective of this paper was to describe the perception of cocoa producers in the municipalities of Caucasia and Necoclí (Antioquia, Colombia), about the link between human beings and nature. 74 diagnostic visits to producers were made and the information was analyzed using structural equations models, considering the latent variables: attitude, subjective norm, perception of control, intention, behavior, and satisfaction of lower and higher needs. The results indicated that the producers consider the care of nature important, that there is an influence of the natural environment to carry out this practice, and that to a lesser extent they are influenced by the family and the community. They also considered having the skills and knowledge but not the tools to do so, they stated that they intended to develop actions, but to a lesser extent they expressed that these actions were effectively implemented. They also found that most needs are easily met by living in natural environments. Two structural equations models were obtained: a) for the planned behavior, where it was found that the attitude influences the intention and this one in the behavior, and b) for the needs, where the satisfaction of lower needs facilitates the satisfaction of higher needs. In conclusion, caring for nature is important for participating producers and the natural environment facilitates the satisfaction of needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Erosive processes cause severe impacts on the environment, causing economic, social, and biodiversity losses. This paper aims to analyze the fragility of the environment to erosive processes in the Onça river basin, in Coxim-ms. The methodology was based on soil mapping, slope, priority areas for biodiversity conservation, and rainfall intensity to evaluate the potential fragility and land use and land cover, that by means of a boolean weighted overlap with the potential fragility resulted in the mapping of the environmental fragility. To validate the environmental fragility model, the erosive features were identified from a high-resolution image and a making, focusing on the areas named "soils with extreme exposure" from a classification, which had as its only aim to identify areas with the lowest degree of protection/ground cover. The results pointed to the predominance of medium (59.61 %) and high (23.66 %) environmental fragility, associated with high concentrations of erosive processes in "soil with extreme exposure" area, which are areas of low vegetation cover, classified by use. and land cover with the pasture classes.

The landscape has become a higher category of territorial analysis because it embodies not only human and natural variables but also the perceived environment. In this context, studies focused on the visual aspects of landscapes as it is a useful approach for land-use planning. This paper quantifies access and visibility restrictions in nine canyons of Cuernavaca city (Mexico) through Geographical Information Systems (gis). The results show that the average accessibility in them is 9.50 %, and that 49.98 % of the surface in the adjacent properties is used for houses that have appropriated these historical landscapes. In the most iconic canyon, public visibility was found to be reduced to 9.95 % of the open space, thatcan only be seen from nine vehicular use points. The city has been characterized by a lack of urban vision for this space, with the result of its environmental degradation, loss of a cultural landscape, and failure of sanitation efforts. Due to the abovementioned, visibility criteria can guide a new urban agenda for Cuernavaca. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes three short stories from La Música Interior de los Leones (2019), by Martín Cristal. It focuses on the conspiratorial nature of current narrative fictions from the perspective of dialectical hermeneutics. In the imaginary worlds of "Vivir A La Sombra", "Farmagedón", and "Ofrenda", the detective genre expands to question social phobias, rewrites the coordinates of terror, and extends uncertainty to scientific paradigms through the allusion to science fiction. Thus, the conspiracy is drawn from the discursive organization as a network of networks, a privileged, invisible, and conflictive totalizing form that allows the nuclei of domination to be read.

The objective of the following paper is to propose a metacritical reading, that is, a critique of criticism, of the thought on art and literature of the French philosopher Jacques Rancière. The hypothesis of a paradigmatic text will be overlapped and re-problematized under increasingly larger units (book, system of concepts, dialogues with other systems). Precisely, starting from the edges that reveal the controversy of Rancière with Jean-François Lyotard and Alain Badiou, we will proceed to a general evaluation of the limits and powers of the theory of art regimes.

The Large Technological System (LTS) is a central concept in the epistemologies of Action-Network Theories (ant), related with poststructuralist epistemologies, and an important tool for the analysis of territorial systems. In this paper, we will use the lts concept to examine the hydrologic system of the Metropolitan Area of Bogotá, making emphasis on three aspects: the natural structure, the technological complex, and the normative framework. The goal was to explore the metropolitan geopolitics of water use in La Sabana de Bogotá and the particularities in the water governance, highlighting the incidence of municipalism and the interaction of a wide group of private, governmental, and civic actors. It was examined the physical infrastructure provided by the Empresa de Acueducto y Alcantarillado de Bogotá (eab-esp) that works as a quasi-monopoly actor in water management as well as their interaction with the highly autonomous municipalities. Other actors such as the real estate, floriculture, mining, and dairy activities was included in the analysis. The report gives special attention to the highly complex relationships between them and how they work in a complex and multiscale normative framework. The text concludes emphasizing the different challenges of water governance in a context of rapid metropolisation, complexing economic relations and climate and environmental change.

Green infrastructure is being recognized as one of the main strategies for climate emergency mitigation and adaptation in urban contexts. However, there are still very few initiatives in Latin America. This paper explores the Chilean case, in particular the "Stgo+ Green Infrastructure" project, to understand how the climate emergency has been included in green infrastructure planning and the level of priority it has among various types of stakeholders. The research was conducted through a review of planning documents and a participatory methodology, involving institutional, academic, and civil society stakeholders. Chilean urban regulations and territorial planning instruments do not offer much opportunity for the development of green infrastructure systems to face the climate emergency, but there are several indicative instruments that contribute in that sense. On the other hand, there is growing recognition by stakeholders of the importance of green infrastructure, but the climate emergency is an aspect that is still given low priority. The low priority that actors attribute to the climate emergency represents a significant barrier for the incorporation of these issues in public plans and policies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Latin America shows an accelerated urbanization process and a development model that generate and intensify social and environmental problems. Added to these problems are the risks triggered by climate change that affect today's cities. In Argentina, its effects are manifested differentially over the regions, impacting cities and human settlements. In this scenario, this paper proposes to explore the environmental risk faced by Argentinean cities in a context of climate change from two dimensions: threat and resilience. For this, two synthetic indices were built using the Mean Index Coefficient methodology for each dimension and subsequently the results were articulated by defining risk categories. Results were spatially represented using a Geographic Information System. Gran Posadas, Corrientes, and Salta reach the most unfavorable situations following by Gran La Plata, Gran Mendoza, Gran San Juan, Gran Tucumán-Tafí Viejo, and the Buenos Aires counties. The importance of focusing on adaptation measures under the concept of urban resilience is highlighted. New questions arise from this work and invite further research whose results will allow progress towards sustainability and urban resilience by including them in local policies.

SMART cities , *ELITE (Social sciences) , *URBAN planning , *URBAN renewal , *SMART materials , *CLIMATE change - Abstract
This paper shows the translations and variations of the smart city model in Latin American cities. The smart city has emerged as a new urban model based on the use of technologies to respond to the varied and complex challenges facing contemporary cities, ranging from security to climate change. Based on the policy mobility approach, the network of actors committed to the diffusion of this urban model is identified and the inclusion of the smart city's narratives and projects in the debates and agendas of the planning and governance of the Latin American cities. The results reveal the prescriptive character of the model, its standardization, and the conformation of an "elite epistemic community" that has been decisive in the narrative and material production of the smart city in the region.

This paper analyzes the relationship between children's and youth literature and the publishing field in Argentina. To deepen this dynamic, I reconstruct a historical panorama of the last fifty years, divided into three moments. A series of works, collections, and cultural agents open roads to aesthetic and political continuities and ruptures that define the relationship between both fields in terms of complementarity. There are two questions that this work seeks to answer as the itinerary unfolds: what are the characteristics of the process that set the current configuration of this area in the national and international literary system? and what position the readers occupied at each moment?
