Measles is still a very important disease preventable by immunization which is responsible for more than 100,000 deaths per year. The only known host is human and this is the reason to be eradicable. In the sixties, measles was one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in children, had caused about more than 2 million of deaths until the massive introduction of the vaccine by the 80's, which diminished the incidence and mortality in the last twenty years. The reduction in the incidence and mortality together with the progress of polio eradication, had renewed the interest on eradication regional and global of measles, although economical sources and technological there are need regional objectives to get it. The authors wrote this paper to show how the behavior in Mexico up to middle of June 2020 is. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to demonstrate the presence of a political virtue (plannings, strategy) in contrast with the political ignorance of trusting in aleatory (to make it simple, just luck). However, united by history, we are going to do that through the lens of two goddess (Niké and Fortune) and their artistic representations in the city of Brussels. In order to do that, we present some emblematic places of Brussels where the fight between these two goddesses became a perfect metaphor for the debates around their characteristics in the political scenario. Combining these statues and the political qualities of the goddesses with Brussels' history of invasions, urban planning and changing of powers. In order to allude to this debate in the tradition of philosophy, we briefly mention some philosophers as Maquiavel, and Seneca. In this cases, we observe how the goddesses' statues dialogue with virtues that these two philosophers reflected upon. For instance, Maquiavel gives to the prince a recommendations to accept, but to do not trust in the gifts of the goddess Fortune. The prince, if he wants to keep its power, should look for planning, order, knowledge. We conclude by saying that Brussels learned its lessons after some invasions and defeats, as the Nine Years's war, and the city exhibits these marks thorough to honours to the goddess of victory Niké.

Girls, boys and adolescents are subjects of human rights, among which is the right to participate, directly or indirectly, in administrative, judicial, and legislative decisionmaking. Their participation must be based on the principles of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, specifically those of the best interests of children and progressive autonomy. In this paper, a legal analysis of the right of participation of children and adolescents in public policies related to urban development is carried out. Consequently, two consultation processes were reviewed: one carried out by the electoral Institute of Mexico City (2017) and another by the National System for the Comprehensive Protection of Girls, Boys and Adolescents (2020).

This paper analyzes the way in which, within the agro-export model that has been developed in the framework of neoliberal restructuring, the processes of valorization and accumulation of capital are sustained in conditions of extreme exploitation of the labor force that violate, with the consent of the State, the most elementary precepts of labor legislation; conditions whose persistence has been expressed in recent decades in various forms of resistance that, in the case of the San Quintín Valley in Baja California, have led to the formation of an independent union with which new perspectives are opened in the struggle for rights class interests of agricultural workers in Mexico.

The aim of this paper consists in analyzing the behavior of the private per capita consumption that was theoretically described by Robert Hall. The conception of this author is that consumption can be formalized as a random walk, this idea comes from the conclusion about the theoretical approaches of Irving Fisher; M. Friedman; Ando and Modigliani. To prove if consumption has or not this pattern, it is instrumented an analysis for South America with a dynamic panel data model using the method proposed by Arellano and Bond, for the period 1960-2019.

The goal of this paper is to analyze the tax policies in favor of SMEs, to compare them with the expenditure of traditional programs, and to propose a tax policy proposal to promote accumulation in Mexican SMEs based on financial and commercial incentives. The hypothesis proposes that when spending on programs exceeds or equals the income tax payment, it preferred that SMEs obtain fiscal incentives so that they reinvest their earnings to improve their accumulation cycle. The paper approach from a method of technical analysis of statistical data to measure the ratio of spending on public programs for SMEs and the amount that these companies pay income tax for the period 2009, 2014, and 2018 It is found that, under strict scenarios of sales margins, internal and global trend of GDP, as well as the state of current investment, the hypothesis is accepted for the years 2014 and 2018 spent on support programs for SMEs represented 2 and 1.2 times what SMEs paid as income tax. Which allows generating fiscal stimuli so that they can reinvest their profits and improve their accumulation cycle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Derivatives are financial instruments that provide competitive advantages and financial options provide a margin of protection such as financial insurance. The objective of the paper is to determine the best risk hedging strategy with American financial options on the shares: AMX-L, CEMEX-CPO, GMEXICO-B, TLEVISACPO and WALMEX-V that are listed on the MexDer, fifty strategies are analyzed during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The main limitation is constant volatility using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein model, future research it is recommended to break this assumption by considering more robust models. The results show that regardless of whether the share price rises, falls, or remains at the expiration date of the contract, it is possible to obtain profits during the pandemic.

The main purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the existence of an Italian interest in Latin American culture under fascist dictatorship. Having given rise to an increasing dissemination of Hispanic culture in Italy, cultural relations between Italy, Spain, and Latin America in the 20s and 30s will be examined. During that period, there was a very strong ideological affinity between Italy and Spain, which explains why the Italian government promoted Spanish-language literature more than others did. Even so, studies show that the spread of Hispanic editorial production in Italy was probably due to accidental meetings between publishers and not to a clear governmental policy. As for Hispano-American literature, the name Mario Puccini stands out as one who helped make modernist writers (such as Rufino Blanco Fombona and Amado Nervo) known in Italy. Accordingly, the essay's main objective is to focus on his professional activity in order to better understand which was the starting point for members of Cristoforo Colombo Institute (1923-1935), the only Italian government body responsible for the promotion of Hispanic culture.

In this paper, I explore under what specific circumstances post-truth undermines democratic legitimacy. First, I argue that post-truth and empirical truths coexist in a fragile epistemic balance. Second, I identify three situations from which post-truth can tip the balance to your advantage and thus dominate the public scene. Third, I point out that the loss of democratic legitimacy is greater when post-truth is associated with political conduct unconcerned by error. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is about democracy in Latin America from year 2000 to 2018. The data used is minimalist -from Freedom House's Freedom in The World-, as well as thick or wider -from The Economist Intelligence Unit Democracy Index- and even maximalist -from Índice de Desarrollo Democrático de Amé- rica Latina, IDD-Lat-. Findings confirm declining tendencies for most of the features measured. It also shows that some of the most enduring democracies in the region coexisted with a dictatorship from the Cold-War era, with a couple of new authoritarian regimes and that in between, there were diversity of fragile and vulnerable democracies.

The purpose of this paper is to pose the current environmental crisis as a philosophical problem, an existential matter, a question of knowledge and ways of life. We explore the ideas of American biologist and philosopher Donna Haraway, who has analyzed the modern concept of nature, which defines it as an inert entity; instead, she suggests it is a biocultural articulation. Likewise, based on her proposal, we understand it is not a matter of fighting the crisis, but of taking responsibilities, in order to figure possible hopeful futures, as an alternative to the pessimism that distinguishes the Anthropocene/Capitalocene narrative.

In this paper, the author approaches the issue of method as seen in the research of Michel Foucault, who creates a history of the present, articulates archeology with genealogy and develops a set of tools for his genealogical research. This paper discusses two of those tools: the dispositif and the focus of experience. The author concludes that: (1) the concept of dispositif, which includes discursive and non-discursive practices, is a powerful tool for the genealogist who writes the history of the present; (2) every dispositif has a strategic role, and (3) the concept of focus of experience makes it possible to analyze the problems of knowledge/truth, power and subjectivation in the various areas of problematization.

The paper approaches the central aspects of Husserl's conception of volitional consciousness, concentrating on its structure, its modalities and its ethical implications. After dealing with the fundamental traits of the early phenomenology of will, we address its meaning from the point of view of practical reason, emphasising the relationship between the will and practical possibility. Finally, we go deeper in the analysis of this relationship by taking into account Husserl's late ethics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Family members of patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) experience suffering, anxiety, and depression, and are involved in a dysfunctional family atmosphere. Although effective treatments for patients with BPD have been developed, family members have received less attention. The aim of this paper was to adapt the dialectical behaviour therapy skills training group for family members in 14 sessions. The sample comprised 12 family members: 50% mothers, 41.7% fathers, and 8.3% partners. The levels of depression (BDI-II), anxiety (OASIS) and expressed emotion (LEE-S) were measured before and after the intervention. The results show a statistical and clinical improvement in depression, and a clinically significant improvement in anxiety, hostility, lack of tolerance and expressed emotion after the intervention. Negative attitude toward illness presents a statistical improvement. Furthermore, intrusion increases both statistically and clinically. However, the levels of intrusion are equal to those in the general population. Further research into the effectiveness of family interventions is essential. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The pre-Hispanic Mesoamerican cultures of the Mexican highlands, and specifically the P'urepecha and Aztec empires (Late Post-Classic Period, 1300 - 1500 AD), experienced great destructive earthquakes that left a mark on their society and determined both their spiritual rites and their urbanism. This paper studies several paleoearthquakes that the P'urepechas experienced in Lake Pátzcuaro, using paleosismology techniques, as well as the existence of large basaltic blocks associated with their religious rites appearing in the hanging wall of two large surface ruptures of coseismic origin (normal faults) that affected the geography of the lake itself. Paleoseoseismic studies suggest that several earthquakes of magnitude between M 6.5 and M 7 occurred with fault surface rupture and probably with a migration from the lake shore. In addition, these studies show that these earthquakes have been occurring since the Preclassic period (3000 BP). Later, the P'urepechas placed two large basalt blocks of more than 1 m3 in volume over the hanging wall of these faulting ruptures and carved their surface for spiritual purposes. In later times during the Spanish conquest, a large Maltese-style Christian cross was carved, which would correspond to the process of Christian evangelization throughout the 16th century in the area of Michoacán, thus reinforcing the spiritual significance of these blocks. In any case, we are facing one of the oldest human manifestations of the effects of earthquakes on ancestral cultures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article I propose an interpretation of the recent Colombian cinema from a perspective that combines Queer Theory with Disability Studies. For this, I take as a case study the film Porfirio (2011) by Alejandro Landes. The analysis focuses on three areas: firstly, I discuss recent Colombian cinema and establish the importance of addressing the construction of (physical) disability in that cultural industry. Subsequently, I examine the way in which sexuality, the body and disability are articulated in Landes' film through an analysis of their visual grammar. Finally, I establish the (sociopolitical) contributions that this film generates in the current Colombian context when a queer/ crip affective approach is assumed. In this way, this paper seeks to promote more extensive research on the representation of (physical) disability in Colombian cinema created in recent decades and, in particular, how it produces affects and effects in Colombian conflictive society [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
