Economic activity is linked, in addition to other production factors, to the use of natural resources. For the inhabitants of the rural regions and communities of Mexico, their coexistence is essential based on the various types of property, including that of common goods. The work uses relative data from the National Agrarian Registry and uses a qualitative and quantitative methodology. The objective is to reflect on the importance of these assets, given that their existence is contemplated in the legislation. The hypothesis is that the development agenda will not be complete if it does not contain the aspects of sustainability. The results show the lack of public support, but also the undervaluation of these spaces. It is concluded that it is essential to promote care practices for these natural resources, for which existing regulations must be enforced [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Injustice in energy transitions is a problem perceived in the inequity of participation in decision-making among the actors that shape socio-technical energy systems, where society usually plays the role of end user within the system network. The importance of taking it into consideration lies in the fact that this inequity can contribute to low social acceptance and lack of public confidence in the energy transition process, which is essential to define the course of the process. Through a qualitative study with an exploratory scope, the objective of this article is to study the perception of citizens as actors in the energy transition process from a procedural justice approach, and to contribute to the research of social study of energy through the social sciences.

The research aims to analyse the curricula of programs accredited by the National Accreditation Council (CNA) to identify the competencies that professionals in Public Accounting should consolidate. It is a documentary review with a descriptive methodology and qualitative approach. The selected programs structure the curriculum by training areas and components, processes, cycles, groupings, lines of deepening, curricular organisation units, cores and by axes. In terms of competencies, they consider an integral professional who integrates knowledge, are immersed in the theories and norms that regulate the profession and the discipline, have know-how in operationalising ideas and norms, and know how to be a methodical citizen with values and ethical and social responsibility. In such a way that they can advise the top management, and generate public confidence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

I This essay aims to present a brief overview of Montenegro's foreign policy after the restoration of independence in 2006. In this light, the most important foreign policy priorities are the Euro-Atlantic integrations that resulted in Montenegro's membership in NATO and the European integrations that are still ongoing. In terms of approach and narrative, they certainly proceeded differently, where European integration was often used as a "softener" in advocating Euro-Atlantic integration, primarily due to the NATO intervention in FR Yugoslavia in 1999 and weak public support for this process.

Startup have become a very important factor in the global innovation process. Startup have ceased to be an aimless company with high uncertainty. The concept has taken a turn and today these types of firms are young companies founded to develop a unique product or service, bring it to market and make it irresistible and irreplaceable for customers and that are based on innovation, addressing the shortcomings of existing products or creating entirely new categories of goods and services, thereby disrupting ways of thinking and doing business rooted in entire sectors. That is why this paper presents an analysis of the global participation of startup and how in Mexico the Fintech sector has become the favorite of this type of companies. According to IDB (2020), startups are facing the new normal by implementing online activities, such as courses, webinars and support channels (66%). Much less frequent, however, are other actions of greater proximity to entrepreneurs, such as online accompaniment (18%), mentoring (5%) or the management of public support to alleviate the companies (3%).

The objective of this work is to study the potential of dialogic literary gatherings as a hybrid space for linguistic learning and personal growth of adolescents and young people who found themselves in confinement due to the global health crisis. This work subscribes to the post-modern paradigm and resorts to the bibliographic and hermeneutical analysis of the voices of the participants. The instruments used are (1) the Knowledge Monitoring Sheet, Risk Perceptions, Preventive Behaviors and Public Confidence in the Current Coronavirus Outbreak Snapshot Monitoring produced by the World Health Organization European Regional Office, and (2) the BarOn model adjusted by García, Hurtado, Quintero, Rivera & Ureña (2018). The techniques of participant observation, focus group, and in-depth interviews were administered to collect the voices of the participants regarding the emotions experienced during the COVID19 pandemic. The variation observed in the results supports the thesis of the significance and coherence of the arguments made by the participants in hybrid education processes. This can contribute to linguistic learning and the emotional containment of students of adolescence and youth ages subjected to contexts of social risk. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

What characterised the political decision-making process behind the Danish Covid-19 strategy? Who were the central actors, and which institutions played a pivotal role in the early and rapid pandemic decisions? Furthermore, how did the Danish citizens respond to the national pandemic strategy? Despite ideological division lines, did theysupportthe government's overall strategy? I here answerthese questions. First, I account for the political context in which the pandemic hit in early 2020.1 then turn to the Danish response, which was characterised bystrong and centralised leadership. Additionally, the pandemicstrategy, which includedone of Europe's most rapid and hard lockdowns, enjoyed strong support in the public as well as little political opposition in the first phases of the pandemic, albeitthe populationalsoshowed democratic concernsabout revised pandemic lawsand centralisation of power. The article focuses on the the first period of the pandemic from March-june 2020. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Moderna received 2.5 billion in public support in the United States. Researchers at the University of Helsinki needed 50 million for phase III of their patent-free vaccine.

This article explores the hypothesis that innovation is an important driver of growth, using an interregional dynamic panel model that controls for endogeneity and captures cumulative effects. In Mexico, the evidence based on three regional criteria (geography, income, and innovation stimulus intensity) suggests that innovation has positive effects on growth, as has been theoretically hypothesized, but with gradual reductions from 2008 and significant variations by region and sector. Furthermore, public support for innovation produced different effects between areas with varying degrees of economic development, with greater elasticity in less-economically developed areas. This reality could facilitate the reduction of regional inequalities. Support for innovation should prioritize intensive high-tech projects, include more diverse economic agents, and have a regional perspective. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective of this article is to determine how the classification of crimes against public administration supports the correct functioning of the organizational infrastructure, which allows the straight and normal functioning of the public administration activity, subject to the system of values established in the Constitution and, ultimately, the proper exercise of administrative authority, sanctioning the conduct of authorities, officials and individuals who vitiate its effectiveness, or compliance with the purposes it has constitutionally assigned, to the extent that these crimes are considered as an axis of corruption that generates in politicians a struggle for particular ambitions and interests, increases the state bureaucracy and generates deficient public services, while at the same time creating an immoral culture, making use of public resources for their own benefit, being necessary in that sense, analyze what refers to the system of crimes against public administration from the perspective of criteria and models of legislative treatment, as well as from the legal nature of such crimes, since only then can we come to understand even the tendencies towards punishment or impunity of them.

In March other Central American countries began to establish containment measures against COVID-19. However, in Nicaragua, for some inexplicable reason, government resistance stiffened and raised into the "thousands" massive party events, as well as sports, tourist, and cultural events. Given the regime's inaction, numerous steps to support public health were undertaken by independent medical, civilian, and academic groups. The pandemic reveals the true nature of the health system in Nicaragua: limited, lacking in supplies, and neglected, with its services in a state of collapse. Data provided by the Ministry of Health (Minsa), with its increase in public disinformation, conceal the undeniable community transmission of the disease. The reaction to the pandemic confirms that the arbitrary exercise of power in Nicaragua has destroyed its pillars of democracy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper discusses the Brazilian's audiovisual policy trajectory since the fundation of the Brazilian Film Agency (Ancine), in 2001, and its institutional migration to the culture field in 2003. The main policy rules under management of Ancine are contextualized. They were responsible for a virtuous audiovisual cycle as parto of a industry project until changes that were deepened in 2019 by political decisions. The goal is to reflect about how State decisions indicates a rupture with a development cycle, characterized by significant advances to deconcentration and cultural and regional diversity, even within the neoliberal model that shapes Brazilian audiovisual policy. The analysis relies on official data published by Ancine. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article reconstructs the normative contributions that some of the main theorists of the Administration have made about public opinion from Wilson to Bozeman. We agree with Lasswell that in a democracy the relationship between public opinion and public policies should be bidirectional. From this perspective, the central questions to be answered would be: what should be the role of public opinion in relation to public administration and policies? And to what extent is it legitimate for public institutions to try to manage public opinion? The answers offered could be grouped into a scale whose first step would circumscribe public opinion to the role of authoritative criticism that would oversee the process of policy formation without interfering in the day-to-day management issues; the second, would be aimed at probing opinion to define strategies and plans that guarantee public support for policies, regulations and services; finally, the citizen, would assume a more relevant and daily role participating directly and even choosing the producers of public services. The management of the opinion with public funds could be considered legitimate and necessary, with the application of opinion research and institutional communication tools. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article explores the reasons why low-income students, who are supported by a public scholarship program called "Beca 18", reject this support or leave their studies during the first year of studies. Results are based on two methods: a quantitative model that compares personal and family characteristics among deserters and non-deserters, and a qualitative approach based on in-depth interviews with deserters in order to inquire about the reasons for not accepting the scholarship or early withdrawal. This article prioritizes the qualitative approach because the quantitative does not show significant differences between the two groups. The evidence indicates that the main reasons that explain the early drop-out or non-acceptance of Beca 18 are the affective factors and the lack of social integration into the new environment.

The goal of this paper is to evaluate the impact of the innovation promotion programs carried by the National Research and Innovation Agency (ANII). A combination of non-experimental methods was used to quantify the effects of public support to innovation in three dimensions o f the firms' behavior: innovation investment, innovation results and economic peiformance. The results show evidence o f crowding-in of public support to innovation. Also, beneficiaries of the programs show larger probability o f successfully introducing new products and processes. We do not find impact in the economic peiformance indicators o f the firms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This research aims to contribute to the understanding of the attitudes related to public support programs of micro and small farmers in the central zone of Chile. For this, it was conducted a survey of 126 entrepreneurs in the Commune of Cauquenes, Maule Region, which participate in a support program coordinated by the Municipality together with the Institute of Agricultural Development (Indap). The survey focused on the following issues: respondents' identification, sociodemographic characteristics, production and business management methods, access to technologies and attitudes about public support programs. It was applied a non-hierarchical cluster analysis to data obtained. The existence of two groups of entrepreneurs was identified: "skeptics" (30.15%) and "receptive" (69.85%), with important differences in their attitudes toward support programs and also in their education level, farm productivity and access to technologies. This leads to the conclusion that, even among producers in vulnerable situations, there are important contrasts that should be incorporated in the design, implementation and evaluation of programs.

By developing a case study that examines the legal and electoral framework, the electoral bodies design and the conditions of political pluralism in the State of Mexico, this article shows that favorable conditions of electoral governance do not necessarily guarantee public confidence in the performance of these bodies and the overall credibility of the election results, which could affect the legitimacy of the elected political authorities (which is unexpected by the findings of the literature). From these findings we recommend that qualitative research should be done to disclose the informal relations of political parties, with the aim of knowing why the incentives that electoral rules and institutional design should generate are not producing the expected results in terms of the voters' confidence in elections.

This article analyzes return migration in the State of Mexico from the personal and home perspective: that is, how many and what types of returned migrants are found in the State, as well as the abilities they bring with them, the way they utilize them and the current limitations they face for deploying them completely in their places of origin. Between November, 2008, and February, 2009, the Center for Advanced Population Studies at the autonomous University in the State of Mexico (CIEAP-UAEM), with support from the state government, applied a survey about the Migration of Mexicans (people from the State of Mexico) to the United States (EMMEU, 2009), on a probabilistic sample of 2090 homes, selected in 69 municipalities from the 125 total in the State. Using a multistage procedure, homes were chosen on state, municipal, local, basic geo-statistical area, neighborhood and house levels; in each one, information was collected from every individual that made up each family unit in a house. These procedures allowed the EMMEU to offer significant statistical information to the State. Results suggest that returned Mexicans bring with them a new social-economic and family mentality that shows up in their daily practices, such as a greater drive to educate their children and care for their health, the capitalization of small businesses and changes from fieldwork to tertiary activities. Based on these results, the study proposes to enhance use of these social-productive abilities through public programs that offer concrete support, according to needs of the returnees, their families and communities.
