In the Iliad, first person plural forms are scarcely used with a pseudo-inclusive meaning. This use is observed in potentially face-threatening speech acts, concretely, both in directives and in complaints, and it reflects different (im)politeness strategies. The pseudo-inclusive meaning is promoted by the description of non-factual states of affairs and by contextual devices that orient the discourse to the interlocutor. In directives, pseudo-inclusive forms function, as previous studies have suggested, as a positive politeness strategy. In most of the complaints, on the contrary, the pseudo-inclusive forms may be rather analysed as a negative politeness strategy, particularly, as a means to protect the addressee's self-esteem and dignity. In these contexts, pseudo-inclusive forms contribute to avoid the expression of direct disapproval and accusation. In other complaints, however, pseudo-inclusive forms function as a mock politeness strategy. In these cases, the pseudo-inclusive meaning serves the speaker to humiliate the addressee and to reinforce his/her own social or moral position of superiority. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The present research consists of evaluating and statistically comparing the number of cases of intrafamily violence in Colombia between the years 2010-2021, based on the reports of the National Police. The database is made up of 896,017 reported cases of violence. Frequency distribution, comparative analysis by the GLM method and Biplot projection were used. Cundinamarca differs statistically with respect to the other regions evaluated, where women present the highest percentage of domestic violence. Factors, such as mobility restrictions, uncertainty, stress, among other components, are at the root of complex family situations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Few studies on large Latin American cities have addressed socio-environmental conflictive in its nonexceptional dimension, that is, in its everyday or banal dimension. This article analyzes which are the banal environmental problems, where they are reported, and what is the relationship between complaints and urban territories, in terms of socioeconomic level, density, and types of land occupation. The analysis is based on a database of environmental citizen complaints reported to the Superintendence of the Environmental and to the municipalities of the Metropolitan Region of Santiago, among which three communes --Independencia, Lo Barnechea and San Bernardo-- are examined in detail. The municipal data were then georeferenced and statistically and spatially analyzed. The research shows that mixed residential sectors with high density are those that concentrate more complaints, mainly about noise. From the nature of the environmental claims and the spatial analysis of this database, we reflect about a new geography of urban conflict in its banal dimension, and its meaning in terms of citizen constructions of the environment in different territories of the city.

This research aims to enlighten the reader about compliance with the ethical duties and prohibitions governed by the Government Ethics Law (LEG), by Public Servants. The results show that, between the periods from 2013 to 2021, there was a considerable increase in the complaints and warnings presented for violations of ethical duties and prohibitions, and that in some periods the announcements and warnings doubled in number compared to the initial period study. Among the most denounced Institutions because of being, the public servants belonging to them are the Ministry of Education, the Supreme Court of Justice and the Legislative Assembly. In relation to the ethical duties and prohibitions, it is determined that the most unobserved and sanctioned ethical duty is the improper use of public goods, funds, resources or services by public servants, which are used for private purposes and not institutional; and the most unfulfilled and sanctioned ethical prohibition is the performance of private activities during the working day. This only demonstrates the lack of responsibility and ethics on the part of public servants towards the Institution. The sanctioning procedures of the Government Ethics Law for the period 2013-2021 are recorded, according to data from the Court, from the complaint to the final resolution, from which it is determined that there is a considerable delay in the processing of the processes by the TEG.

Self-regulation has received scarce attention in Spain in both the professional arena, where its practical utility is not valued, and also in the academic world. The situation has improved in recent years and should continue, given the role that self-regulation plays in complex societies. Academic research must: critically analyze the work of self-regulation mechanisms and disseminate that research among the expert community and future professionals. In addition to presenting these ideas in detail, this article describes the findings of an analysis of the first hundred decisions of the FAPE's Arbitration, Complaints and Deontology Commission, drawing conclusions about the work of this agency of self-regulation.

The present study analyzes the self-regulation advertising systems in Spain, since the joint complaints presented between the years 2010 and 2015 in the frame procedure in which the Autocontrol statute establish for its tramitation. The results show some weakeness of the system that challenges the independence and the effectiveness model. The prominence that consumer associations have, promoting complaints despite of the scarce porcentages of favourable resolutions that they obtain, the strength position that multinationals pretend to take pleassure being a complaint object, and the particular judgement which with Autocontrol records the favourable resolutions to the complainers, are some of the main findings of the study.

This study shows strategies used in love letters written between 1912 and 1920. Complaints (mostly female) are common in the corpus, and they are often used as strategies of seduction. Even though considered offenses in polite discourse, complaints are not felt as such in love discourse, since these strategies intend to achieve the desired objective, which is the consolidation of the couple. The study concludes that complaints are not considered conflictive in love discourse since they are interpreted as a game to be played. The complaining lover is a passionate subject, not a polite one. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction. Responsibility in most decisions of medical attention falls mainly on the medical staff. All the staff involved has rights and obligations, administrative towards institutions and concerning our behaviour before the law. The profilograms allow to define the denunciation's reach in the constant and ever-growing complaints index, see whether they should proceed or not, and what part of the medical attention chain is responsible for such suit. Material and Methods. A transversal survey study was made, with non-probabilistic sampling for convenience, during the period of May 2008 to August 2011, on 861 people of any contract category, both sexes, removing 120 surveys. The instrument consists of 20 open-ended questions, including as indicators the basic terms on professional responsibility and legal framework; applying the same procedure to two control groups. Results. The 86% answered in completeness. Mini- mum of answers were zero (54%), while the maximum was 17(0.13%); average grade of the 741 surveys was of 0.4%. there was no predominance on the matter of gender. Most respondents were in the 20 to 40 years old (82%) range, and 1-20 years of seniority (96%), there was no meaningful difference between the groups. Conclusions. Applying this surveyed allowed us to determine that the level of knowledge on professional responsibility is low (0.1%); it is necessary to organize informative activities and create conscience o the matter among the healthcare providers.

This article proposes to introduce the analysis of a set of technical rules designed for risk management in the context of the company's business, and that are extremely useful for determining the expectations on corporations regarding the prevention of criminal behavior that may result from their own activity. As defended in this paper, these technical rules will provide the necessary content of crime prevention models or the Compliance Programs that companies must implement according to Article 4 of Law 20.393.

This investigation identifies common denominators of complaints presented to Health Superintendent in the form devoted to mediation related to private providers, evincing the breakdown of the odontologist-patient relationship and in addition analyzes the contents of narratives expressing dissatisfaction with unfulfilled expectations, emphasizing its ethical component. There is a qualitative analysis of narratives included in the forms using content analytic techniques and a quantitative analysis providing data on odontological specialties involved and sociodemographic data. Part of the dissatisfaction is related to bad ethical handling on the part of the professionals, deteriorating the personal relationship. Complaints could be reduced by the inclusion of ethical norms in the interpersonal relation, pointing towards recognition of the other, his/her dignity and the improvement of ethical consciousness as professionals.

Kidnapping in Colombia has constituted a recurrent and generalized practice. Despite the efforts made by the State to control and reduce kidnappings, the phenomenon persists. One of the ways how the State answers to this problem depends on citizen's cooperation through complaints. In consequence, this research aims to establish the incidence of complaints on the outcomes of extortive kidnapping situations in Colombia for the period 1970-2010. To achieve this general objective, our research develops three specific goals: First, we establish the way how kidnapping policies incorporate or not complaints as a strategic component in the struggle against kidnapping. Secondly, we identify the factors that motivate or inhibit a kidnapping complaint based on a multidimensional analytical framework. Finally, we analyze the outcome of extortive kidnapping situations when a complaint has been established. Our conclusions are drawn from the results of the data we gathered, analyzed and contrasted out of two types of samples and from two different perspectives: qualitative based on kidnapping cases, and quantitative from a judicial source data base.
