To improve distribution mechanisms is one of the problems of major importance to the transition to socialism in Cuba. One the most serious challenges to be immediately faced in this stage of constructing socialism is to use work for wealth creation, so people's quality and standard of life could be improved. Ways of contributing to the implementation of institutional distribution according to work in today's Cuba are as follows: improving mechanisms for distribution; giving individual and collective incentives; increasing productivity; paying more attention to peoples' working and living conditions, so these could be improved. This paper examines current trends in and contradictions of distribution according to work, and suggests ways of improving it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Within the frame of a society which is building Socialism, the analysis of employment and wages variables, as well as the scheme of a wage policy, even international theory and experience in market economies can be assessed, cannot leave aside Marxist conceptions, instead they must be conceptualized from a vision coherent to the basic principles of a socialist model. In that model, wages are an instrument for individual and social realization of the subject in her/his double condition of worker and co-owner of the means of production and, besides, for distribution of the wealth created according to work in order the develop productive forces and to achieve social equality. This paper analyzes the characteristics of the transition period to Socialism and then qualifies what are consider the essential foundations for a wage policy according to the Cuban socioeconomic development.

The department of Cundinamarca in Colombia is an area with diverse geographic and ecosystemic characteristics, a condition that makes it one of the regions in the country with highest diversity of birds. This study updates the list of birds in the department, as well as identifies changes in composition and gaps of information, through the recopilation of field data developed by the authors from 1990 to 2015, revision of different papers and databases, and consultation of experienced birdwatchers in the region. We found 941 records of bird species, of which 24 are endemic, 72 near endemic, 1 extinct, 39 nationally threatened, 101 migratory, and 45 present local and/or altitudinal migration. Of the total number of records, 701 correspond to the authors in 45 localities (48 are new records for the department). We note that there are gaps of information in departmental boundaries, especially in the region of the Magdalena River valley and Llanos Orientales. However, regions that have been more extensively sampled are not fully inventoried since new species for science are still being found. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper revives Fernando Fajnzylber's methodology, used to characterize Latin America's development pattern from the nineteen-sixties to the nineteen-eighties, leading him to describe it as a non-equitable growth pattern, which he termed the empty box. This time around, we analyze the last thirty years, aiming to reveal how the development pattern in the region has fundamentally changed, if it has changed at all, and find evidence as to whether the empty box, pursuant to its original definition, persists or not. Implicitly, the task is to propose a critical analysis of Latin American economic development in line with a classic structuralist work, as Fajnyzylber's research is. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Raw milk contamination with spores (Clostridium) generates defects in hard and semihard cheeses. One of the main causes is the consumption of contaminated silage by dairy cows. Alterations in animal health have also been associated with the consumption of poor quality silage. The aim of this paper is to analyze the degree of association between: quality, extraction and distribution of silage and dung contamination of lactating cows. Milk samples from bulk milk tanks were obtained in order to know the potential impact of the quality of the silages consumed by cows, as a risk factor on the milk delivered to the industry. The exploratory study was performed in nine dairy farms, located in the departments "Las Colonias" and "San Justo" (Province of Santa Fe), which used corn and sorghum silage (silo bags) most of the year. Samples were taken to determine fermentation quality of silage. Faecal samples from lactating cows were analyzed as indicators of contamination of silage consumed (NMP clostridium/g faeces). The determination of anaerobic sporeforming microorganisms fermenting lactate in raw milk (NMP sporulated/l milk) was performed on bulk tank milk samples. Information of the technology used for the extraction and distribution of silage, was collected. The sample period starts in autumn 2010, ending in the fall of 2011. The highest loads of spores were found in autumn and winter period, in which the use of silage is maximized. The data was analyzed using multivariate statistical INFOSTAT. The results indicate association between the variables: NMP spores/g of faeces and silage extraction, and NMP spores/g faeces and silage distribution, considering the dairy and time of year variables. Independence between the variables fermentative quality of silage and NMP of spores/g in faeces, was found. The silos generally were considered of good quality, leading to the conclusion that the greatest risk of contamination occurred during the extraction and distribution of silage. It would be necessary to improve the training of producers and operators in relation to these processes. When the values were higher in faeces (NMP> NMP 40.000 spores/g faeces), high levels of contamination in milk, was observed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The systematic and taxonomy of brachyuran crabs has undergone remarkable changes over the last decade, motivated by the review of the use of the classical morphological characters and the introduction of genetic studies on phylogeny. In this paper, the list of marine and freshwater brachyurans of Cuba is updated, using an actualized classification system. The reporting of the Cuban archipelago dated 2000 and included 316 species and subspecies (to which were added in later years 14) and 20 families. In the updated list 319 species and 42 families are recognized, no subspecies are related. Within Goneplacoidea, Majoidea and Xanthoidea superfamilies are the major differences in the organization of families and genera. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper discusses the moral dilemmas associated with the distribution of scarce resources, such as healthcare, in regard to Marx's principle of needs. It seeks to respond to the difficulties that conceptualization and boundaries of the concept of needs involve. We also study the ethical implications of giving space to personal responsibility or efficiency for the purpose of allocating scarce resources. We conclude, from the perspective of the analytical Marxism, that the satisfaction of basic necessities should prevail over distribution based on personal responsibility and individual contribution.

The Atlantic Forest represents one of the global priority eco-regions for biodiversity conservation. In Argentina, this is represented by the Paranense Forest, which occupies much of the Misiones Province. In this paper, an updated list of land mollusks from Misiones Province is presented, and its species richness was evaluated comparing protected and unprotected areas. For this, we reviewed La Plata Museum Mollusk Collection, updated the literature review, and developed some field work between 2009 and 2010. For the areographic work, a grid (50x50km) was applied to a Misiones province map. In this region, large areas of native vegetation constituting the Paranaense Forest still persist, and include protected areas such as the Iguazú National Park and Puerto Península Provincial Park. These areas have been the most explored at the malacological level (both terrestrial and aquatic environments), a fact that is consistent with the greater number of records found, which may also be the explanation for the highest number of species recorded in the region. A database containing 497 records was compiled. The number of species occurring in this Province was increased from 28 to 56; 11 of which were exotic species. A total of 38 of the species occurred in protected areas and 53 in unprotected areas; and 25 species were micro-mollusks. Orthalicidae was the family with the highest species number (10) and the widest distribution, occupying 16/20 sampling units. Megalobulimus was the genus found in a greater number of sampling units (14/20). The highest values of specific richness of land gastropods were found in Northern Misiones (R=32). This richness was similar to that previously reported for the Tucumán Province, although species occurring in both provinces were mostly different. The richness in Misiones Province border areas, as the Republic of Paraguay and the state of Santa Catarina (Brazil), was about twice that found in the province. The present study showed the existence of poorly explored areas at malacological level, especially in Central and Eastern Misiones. Data presented here will allow focus future sampling efforts on such areas, so patterns of species distribution can be better defined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper shows a descriptive analysis about the characterization of the consumption's pattern in Mexico and Sonora, by determining how much money is spent in households and the proportion that those intended to consume on goods and services. Income level is considered to account for such classification. A comparison between the patterns of consumption is made for Mexico and Sonora in 2005, by emphasizing on food expenditures and some specific food products such as vegetables; including tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers. The study also performs a look into the spending behavior in Mexico from 2000 to 2006, by contrasting the hypothesis of Modigliani and Friedman (Dornbusch, 2004; Camacho, 2000) and the mathematical formulation of Campbell and Mankiw (1989) on the assumption of the society's consumption. It finally outlines a series of proposals for future studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the accumulation pattern of Spanish capitalism during the last half a century, based on the evolution of the capital return and the behavior of its main determinants: distribution and technical change. First, it explains the accumulation logic of the theory of work-value and argues that the so-called "law of the falling tendency of the rate of profit" (Ltdtg) provides a suitable frame to explain the movements of the capitalist development in the long term. It then shows how this dynamic has materialized in the development of world accumulation since the end of the second world war, and concludes that the evolution of the Spanish capitalism in this period follows the same world pattern, emphasizing its main singularities.
