In an international scenario of political crisis, and with democracies weakened by the impact of populism and disinformation, the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 provides a new scenario for the reactivation of war propaganda strategies. This article analyzes the digital discourse of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky on Telegram—a messaging network that favors one-way communication, immediacy, and access to communities of followers—in terms of war propaganda during the first year of the conflict, focusing on variables such as propaganda functions and techniques, the representation of the leader and the enemy, or the use of national symbols. The data-gathering technique is content analysis, which is applied to the study of the 2,075 publications made by the Ukrainian leader in the period analyzed (February 24, 2022-February 23, 2023). Results indicate a strategic orientation towards the internationalization of the conflict and the defense of a management orientation based on the mobilization of Ukraine, as well as personalized leadership and the persistence of techniques and trends of classic war propaganda in the digital political discourse of the 21st century.

This article analyzes abortion experiences with misoprostol during the first decade of the 21st century in Argentina, before the legalization of the practice and the publication of the World Health Organization manuals on medication dosage. Based on in-depth interviews with women who underwent medical abortions during those years, we inquire about the mechanisms of information circulation and clandestine purchase of the drug. In addition, the article delves into experiences on the use of medication, confidence in the procedure, and the pain felt by these women from the theoretical perspective of the sociology of emotions. Among the most relevant findings is that women build networks and links to overcome the problems surrounding the practice of abortion because of the difficulty of obtaining the medication in the context of legality and illegality and the lack of information about the procedure itself and to develop a reliable method based on their own experiences.

The establishment and maintenance of an effective democracy, characterized by its popularity, representativeness, and accountability, are fundamental elements in the process of consolidating a republic. Despite inherent challenges, such as antidemocratic coups that have left their mark on the country, perpetuating the use of force, it is imperative to chart a course toward democratic stability. The evolving definition of democracy over the years has given rise to diverse perspectives in the 21st century, emanating from individuals, institutions, and nations. Ecuador, as a republic, has experienced fluctuations in democratic stability throughout its history. This study focuses on analyzing the levels of democratic stability in Ecuadorian society, employing neutrosophic statistics to address the variability of the variable in question. The research results underscore that the deterioration of civil rights, evaluated from a neutrosophic perspective, emerges as a critical factor in the stability of democracy in society.

For Michel Foucault, there exists an intrinsic relationship between ethics, aesthetics, and politics; and, in this essay, we are interested in reflecting on parrhesia as that frank discourse that allows for insolent and scandalous interrogation, through which individuals are called upon to know themselves. In this sense, the actions of escraches, carried out by H.I.J.O.S. (Children for Identity and Justice, against Forgetting and Silence) in the early 21st century in Argentina, are analyzed as the production and irruption of a parallel justice that links ethics and aesthetics in a process of subjectivation and political interrogation.

Extractivist archaeological practices have been carried out in the Atacama Lickanantay territory, Antofagasta region, northern Chile, ever since the 19th century, excluding or denying the voice and/or participation of members of the local indigenous community. However, the beginning of the 21st century saw a change in this sense bringing new experiences of collaboration between Atacameños and archaeologists. Our goal is to reflect on the definitions and applications of collaborative methodologies in archaeological projects, through discussion focusing on the global, through the national and finally the local, from where we approach a particular collaborative project. The research, conducted between early 2021 and mid 2024, studies the history of the collection and patrimonialization of indigenous bodies in the Atacameño Lickanantay territory, and socializes this information among the local communities. Based on this work, we conclude that all research in the territory must involve and be authorized by the Atacameño communities. Also, we consider that the Atacameños should stop being the object of research and instead become researchers who lead or collaborate in the studies within their communities and in their territory. The originality of this paper lies precisely in the fact that it brings a global discussion of contemporary archaeology to a concrete case. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article "Poetics of the Editor: an expanding genre" analyzes the role of the editor in the literary and publishing field, highlighting the views of Pierre Bourdieu and André Schiffrin on their power and importance. It mentions the transformation of the publishing market in the Spanish language and the expansion of transnational corporations in the cultural industry. Despite these changes, there is a growing interest in the figure of the editor and their profession in the 21st century. The article also emphasizes the importance of "poetics of the editor" as autobiographical and metafictional narratives that reveal the editor's role as a co-author of the text. Examples of prominent figures in the publishing field are mentioned, and the need to explore the writings of editors in Latin America and the gender perspective in the poetics of female editors is raised.

The reliquary of Saint Hermión martyr arrived in the villa of Lagos in 1791. Since then, it has both been object of devotion –capable of granting miracles and “favors”– and given its name to the children of the families of Lagos. Between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, it also established itself as a cultural object, source of legends, evocative of memory and an important reason for tourists to visit the city.

The dataisation of life, of society, in the 21st century has become an indisputable reality, reaching also the algorithmisation of Justice. The challenges and risks are enormous and the outlook is complex. We are witnessing an ever-increasing “hybridisation” of Justice: machines and humans interact, algorithms assist legal operators, systems are created to complement the decisions of judges, prosecutors, lawyers, notaries, etc., although, increasingly, we are moving towards the progressive replacement of human beings in Justice by machines, by robots. The dilemma of the Justice is present. We must avoid imbalance, inequalities, the digital divide, the reduction of guarantees, the conversion of Justice into cold statistical-mathematical data, which perverts the human model of Justice; a model with shortcomings but which has been built on the basis of respect for rights and guarantees.

In the 21st century, inclusion has become an imperative of public policies in the educational field. In Argentina, this has resulted in a set of policies aimed at generating conditions to include the most vulnerable sectors in the educational system and in new demands and expectations for the recently compulsory secondary level. In this article we share advances of a research on educational inclusion practices, understanding it as a complex process. Based on the ethnographic work carried out, we focus on the act of graduating from a secondary school in order to recognize signs of educational inclusion and to broaden the view in order to stress the historical configuration of the secondary level. It is the ritual of the completion of compulsory education that allows us to interweave meanings, subjects, history and inclusion and thus understand the meaning of finishing secondary school for the sectors historically excluded from this level of education.

María Teresa León's Las peregrinaciones de Teresa is a short story collection published in 1950. This article examines two of its stories from the perspective of the neologism transmemoria, which the author presents in her introduction, with the aim of exploring its critical potential for analyzing the essential meaning of the stories. This allows us to question the use that Hirsch, Young and Bedingfield have made of the concepts of postmemory and transmemory since the early 21st century to highlight the value of the production of "vicarious" discourses about the past by the second generation of exiles and immigrants based on their own reinterpretation of the trauma suffered by their parents. From the analysis of the two narratives and León's use of the term transmemoria, this article argues for an alternative model of memory in which the resulting narratives have an emancipatory role and in which utopia prevails over trauma and experience over inheritance.

After 40 uninterrupted years of democracy, little remains of the ethos originated in 1983, of that consensus about what is valid and what is repudiable in the public space. In this paper we will try to understand the long process that led to this slippage of values during these forty years, which has three chapters that are connected to each other. The first moment of this shift occurs during the Menemism, when there is a dislocation between the public and the private spheres, and the political world begins to be irradiated by values, parameters and activities of the private world. The second moment occurs during the second decade of the 21st century when we are faced with an unprecedented political and affective polarization between the two most relevant political spaces. This implied, firstly, a reading of the political enemy in moral terms, and secondly, a mutual delegitimization as democratic actors. The third moment obeys to the crowning of incorrectness as a new political virtue observed in the last years, which generates the articulation of a new system of values that legitimizes expressions that the political ethos of 1983 sanctioned.

The article analyzes the reconfiguration of the global geopolitical landscape in the 21st century, highlighting the fall of the Soviet Union, the economic growth of China, and the emergence of India as important powers. It also mentions the critical situation of Latin America after the debt crisis and the failure of the Washington Consensus. The objective of the article is to analyze Latin America's relations with global actors such as the United States, China, Russia, and the European Union, and how these relations affect the region. Mélany Barragán Manjón, a professor at the University of Valencia, and Ariel Sribman Mittelman, a researcher at the Institute of Latin American Studies and the Caribbean at the University of Buenos Aires and a professor of Political Science at the European University of Madrid, are presented.

This essay seeks to establish a broader conceptual framework for studying the historical development of Latin American science fiction and its recent turn--in a genre usually focused on other times and worlds--to references to the past and present of Latin American history and culture. Valuable current studies of Latin American science fiction have been devoted primarily to the history of the genre itself and to tropes that have recurred in certain periods of the development of Latin American science fiction, such as cyborgs, androids, and zombies. Few have been devoted to the issues and forces at play in the current rise not only of science fiction in Latin America but of a recognizably Latin American form of science fiction. Through readings focused on the role of history and time in representative Latin American science fictional narratives of the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries, from the Argentine Juana Manuela Gorriti and the Chilean Jorge Baradit to the Cuban Yoss, the pervasiveness of historicity, the view of indigenous knowledge as proto science (rather than superstition), and a penchant towards dystopias, horror, and the Gothic, are considered as possible defining traits of Latin American science fiction.
