Este estudio se centra en un análisis de los programas sociales en México y su incidencia en los factores determinantes de la pobreza, por lo que esta investigación se vinculó con las políticas públicas, destacando referentes teóricos y empíricos desarrollados en la última década. La metodología es de tipo descriptiva exploratoria, se analizaron 123 programas sociales instrumentados bajo las dimensiones de los factores determinantes de la pobreza que se pretende contrarrestar con las políticas públicas, se categorizan desde tres paradigmas distintos; el del Banco Mundial que hace alusión a un umbral de bienestar que se relaciona con lo regional, local e individual; el de la CEPAL en el que se relaciona la pobreza, la desigualdad, los accesos a educación, salud, vivienda, vida digna entre otros, es decir un enfoque multidimensional; y el enfoque de capacidades establecido por Amartya Sen. Los resultados develan que las intervenciones actuales no consideran el enfoque de capacidades, ya que parten de factores exógenos al individuo, sin importar la autonomía voluntaria asociada al desarrollo endógeno. Se concluye que los programas sociales en México, no resuelven los problemas subyacentes de la pobreza, por lo que no se logran resultados significativos que repercutan en el crecimiento y desarrollo sostenible.

The purpose of this article is to analyse the relationship between different innovation profiles, capabilities, and innovation results of manufacturing firms from Argentina. The premise that guides our research is that most of firms not performing formal R&D -92%- are a highly heterogeneous group in terms of innovative behaviour, capabilities and innovative performance. Thus, we propose to study firms' innovation profile as a gradient that accounts for formal R&D, informal R&D, non-R&D performing firms and firms without innovation efforts. Then, the relationship between these profiles and five dimensions of firms' capabilities -productive, organizational, connectivity, and accumulated and potential absorptive - is explored. Accordingly, the study of how these profiles correlate with firms' innovation results -products and/or processes innovations, new marketing and/or organizational changes, patents and ratio of new product sales to total sales-is also carried out. The empirical evidence is based on Argentinean manufacturing firms with data from the second wave of the National Innovation Survey composed by around 4000 observations for the period of 2014-16. Results suggest that more complex R&D profiles require higher levels of capabilities. Moreover, there seems to be a threshold of capabilities in moving from the non-R&D to the informal R&D profile. Likewise, while informal R&D is a critical threshold to increase the probability of obtaining product, process, organization and marketing innovations, formal R&D is key to get patents and to increase the share of new products on total sales.

La transformación digital está impulsada por el uso de nuevas tecnologías digitales, las cuales están impactando fuertemente en las cadenas de valor, las formas de organización y producción, los canales de distribución, los modelos de negocio y en la manera en la que se realiza la innovación en las empresas y sus aliados. Por esta razón, resulta importante entender el fenómeno, dimensionarlo y desarrollar propuestas de diseño organizacional que faciliten gestionarlo de forma adecuada. En consideración a lo anterior, este artículo tiene por objetivo identificar la relación que guarda la transformación digital con la innovación en las empresas, para determinar cómo se pueden desarrollar capacidades que permitan reforzar los procesos de innovación. Para ello, se propone un modelo que correlaciona la gestión de tecnología e innovación digitales con la transformación digital, de tal forma que se cuente con un marco de referencia, lineamientos y herramientas para el despliegue organizacional de esta.

Circular economy practices are increasingly aligning with the strategies of organizations operating in innovative and dynamic environments and can be considered a new capability to be explored. This study aims to systematize knowledge about dynamic capability and the circular economy. The results reveal that an organization's ability to transition from a linear to a circular model is directly related to its capacity to develop dynamic capabilities, facilitating the integration of circular practices into its strategies and enhancing performance.

Purpose: Organize concepts of capabilities and business performance (BP) within the scope of business sustainability (BS). Originality/value: Concepts of capabilities and performance are fragmented in the BS literature. Therefore, we argue the need for more in-depth studies to organize them. This research identifies and organizes categories of capabilities and BP about BS-oriented organizations, bringing new perspectives on how organizations can better use their resources towards sustainable development. Design/methodology/approach: With the support of content analysis techniques, we conducted a broad integrative review of capabilities and performance in the scope of BS. Concepts were categorized into two analysis frameworks regarding capabilities and BP, respectively. Findings: Based on these two frameworks, first, nine core capabilities were identified and classified into the strategies of the Natural Resource-Based View (NRBV), in order to analyze them into time (short and long-term) and spatial (organization internal and external environments) perspectives. Following that, we identified conceptualizations for BP focusing on one or more BS domains (economic, social, and environmental). Finally, we deduced propositions, including discussions on how capabilities and BP can be constituted into intertemporal and spatial lines, to create a better connection between business and society, accommodating tensions and solving grand societal challenges, such as poverty and climate change.

In this paper I will discuss some logical problems of omnipotence which go beyond the classical paradoxes of this notion. I will present a refined version of Fitch's paradox of omnipotence which takes into account the distinction between basic and derived actions, as well as the distinction between one's being able to do something and it being metaphysically possible that one does it. I will also explain how to modify the paradox to obtain a liar-like version of it which threatens the consistency of certain notions of omnipotence. Lastly, I will assess some possible replies available to the theist and an attempt to use the paradox as an argument for God's existence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Este trabajo discute sobre capacidades institucionales de los gobiernos municipales en la prestación del servicio de agua potable, drenaje, alcantarillado, tratamiento y disposición de sus aguas residuales: consecuentemente, se cuestiona ¿qué son las capacidades institucionales? ¿qué capacidades institucionales debe desarrollar un gobierno municipal en la gestión del agua? El problema de investigación es de orden semántico (analítico); tal desarrollo desencadena en una serie de preguntas que alertan sobre la suficiencia o insuficiencia de habilidades de los gobiernos municipales para cumplir con su encomienda hídrica.

Este artículo reflexiona acerca de las proposiciones generales del Marco Nacional de Cualificaciones para las carreras de educación y las controversias que surgen a partir de las omisiones e intencionalidades que subyacen en la formación docente. El objetivo es analizar el desarrollo de capacidades docentes y competencias pedagógicas mediante asociaciones entre el Marco de Cualificaciones y los postulados generales de la educación para la paz. Metodológicamente, desde un enfoque cualitativo, se interpreta el proceso de construcción de las habilidades docentes y los requerimientos del mercado laboral mediante la formulación de controversias vinculadas a la formación docente. Consecuentemente, se logra evidenciar la implicación de los criterios para el ejercicio pedagógico en el manejo y comprensión de los conflictos sociales y la necesidad de reensamblar la educación costarricense desde un marco político y filosófico centrado en la paz y los derechos humanos.

Al referirse a la libertad, la igualdad y la fraternidad, el tríptico de la Revolución Francesa introdujo estos principios entre las categorías políticas. La historia de los tres ha seguido caminos autónomos. La fraternidad ha conocido su desarrollo junto a la cristianitas, pero antes de que maduraran las libertad y la igualdad como categorías; el desarrollo de los principios de libertad e igualdad ha ocurrido en medio del eclipse de la fraternidad. La Declaración Universal de Derechos Humanos, vuelve a reunir el tríptico y nos obliga a confrontarnos con un catálogo de derechos inalienables e irrenunciables. Para ello, es necesario sumergirnos en las raíces de la fraternidad y en su esencia, la que no excluye el conflicto, sino que brinda métodos para superarlos o, en todo caso, convivir sanamente con él.

Práticas de economia circular estão cada vez mais alinhadas às estratégias das organizações que atuam em ambientes inovadores e dinâmicos, podendo ser uma nova capacidade a ser explorada. O presente estudo visa sistematizar o conhecimento sobre capacidade dinâmica e economia circular. Os resultados mostraram que a habilidade das organizações de se engajar na transição do modelo linear para o circular está diretamente relacionada ao seu potencial para desenvolver capacidades dinâmicas que facilitam a integração de práticas circulares em suas estratégias, aprimorando o desempenho.

Ecuador ha sido pionero en el reconocimiento de derechos, de sujetos diferentes de los que ampara el derecho positivo tradicional, pero no se puede obviar que existen precedentes jurisprudenciales a nivel internacional, como el caso de la orangutana Sandra en Argentina, (2015), el caso del Río Atrato en Colombia (2016), el caso del Río Ganges en India (2017), entre muchos otros, que han estado soportados en distintos argumentos, morales y jurídicos. De modo que interrogantes como: ¿Por qué los ríos deben ser considerados sujetos de derecho?, o ¿por qué los animales deben ser considerados sujetos de derecho? ya tienen argumentos solventes. Ahora la tarea es defnir qué derechos le asisten a cada uno de los seres que componen la naturaleza. La Constitución de Montecristi consagra unos derechos, y la sentencia de Estrellita reconoce expresamente otros, que corresponden a los animales silvestres, como el derecho a la integridad física, el derecho a la salud, el derecho a la alimentación, el derecho al hábitat, el derecho a expresar comportamientos naturales, etc. Sin embargo, existen derechos de miembros de la naturaleza que hoy por hoy carecen de contenido y se encuentran siendo desarrollados. Este artículo, además de plasmar una visión sobre la evolución de los derechos de los animales, pretende defnir dos derechos que fueron reconocidos por la sentencia de Estrellita de forma implícita.

En un mundo cada vez más competitivo, la gestión del conocimiento se ha convertido en un factor clave para el desempeño laboral en las organizaciones del siglo XXI. La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar la influencia de la gestión del conocimiento en el desempeño laboral del personal administrativo de una municipalidad distrital peruana, 2023. Para lograr un mejor análisis, se desglosó la variable gestión del conocimiento en tres dimensiones: capacitaciones, aprendizaje organizacional y gestión por competencias: por otro lado, la variable desempeño laboral se subdividió en otras tres dimensiones: eficiencia, manejo de habilidades y capacidades. La investigación se desarrolló bajo el enfoque cuantitativo, alcance correlacional y utilizó el diseño no experimental transeccional correlacional-causal; los participantes fueron 70 trabajadores administrativos de la municipalidad distrital objeto de estudio a los cuales se les aplicó un cuestionario tipo Likert compuesto por 22 ítems. Los resultados revelaron que la gestión del conocimiento influye significativamente en el desempeño laboral, con un coeficiente de Nagelkerke de 0.565. Asimismo, se detectó una influencia positiva de dicha variable en la eficiencia y manejo de habilidades con coeficientes de Nagelkerke de 0.867 y 0.581 respectivamente. Sin embargo, existe una brecha en la capacidad del personal (coeficiente de Nagelkerke de 0.391) para resolver problemas y alcanzar los objetivos de la entidad, lo que resalta la necesidad de mejorar los métodos de generación de conocimiento, enfatizando el papel crucial de la gestión del conocimiento en el sector público y proporcionando perspectivas valiosas para futuras políticas y prácticas.

Problematizamos, neste ensaio, a tendência nacional e internacional de esvaziamento do sentido humanizado da educação que tem se materializado na linguagem da aprendizagem, discutindo novas possiblidades para a formação docente a partir do enfoque das capacidades humanas proposto por Martha Nussbaum. Para tanto, realizamos um estudo hermenêutico das seguintes obras publicadas pela autora: Crear Capacidades: propuesta para el desarrollo humano, El cultivo de la humanidade: uma defensa clásica de la reforma em la educación liberal, Sem fins lucrativos: por que a democracia precisa das humanidades. Tendo por base a sua concepção de formação liberal e democrática, apontamos algumas críticas ao modelo de educação como negócio, justificando alguns aspectos do enfoque das capacidades humana para a formação de professores.

Ecomodernists argue that decoupling human well-being of its ecological impacts through a wise use of science and technology is required to reach justice and sustainability in the Anthropocene. This article defends the pertinence of the Capabilities Approach to support normatively this notion by the following way. Firstly, I argue that ecomodernism shares with the Capabilities Approach a specific meaning of human flourishing derived from freedom of choice. Secondly, I present an ecomodernist conception of the Sustainable Ecological Capacity, as well as its links with the capability ceilings to establish the foundations of my proposal. Finally, I conclude that such an exploration brings to a new «weak» ecomodernism, based on a simultaneous application of sufficientarian and limitarian accounts on distributive justice of ecosystem goods and services.

This article presents an analysis of justice, opportunities and capacities in inclusive university education, from the perspective of Rawls and Sen. Methodologically it is positivist, descriptive and documentary design analyzing research on the subject. The results reflect that although inclusion is a right guaranteed by international organizations and each country has formulated laws, it is evident in different investigations that the process is more theoretical than practical, as there are deficiencies in universities to give fair treatment to people with disabilities, equal opportunities according to their abilities. Therefore, a Model for Effective Inclusive University Education is proposed, with a holistic and integral foundation, assuming the socio-economic and cultural conditions of the student, teacher training, the attitude towards disability that contribute to the quality of life of these students based on equity as freedom (Rawls, 1971), and the capabilities approach (Sen, 2012).

The Human Development Report for Mercosur - RDH-M (2009-2010) systematized a set of Qualitative and Quantitative Data on how young people perceive the educational and work world. The subjective elements - extracted from 295 interviews with youth leaders from the four countries that effectively comprised Mercosur in 2010 - make it possible to understand their perceptions of the world, their motivations, and perspectives. This is documentary research that gives centrality to the way in which RDH-M producers highlight young people's view of becoming, that is, their fears and hopes. The RDH-M writers demonstrate that positive expectations of job performance through increasing schooling are much more present among the wealthier youth. The poorest have many projects, expectations and hopes, however, seem to doubt, more intensely, whether the fulfillment of school cycles will, in fact, guarantee success in the world of work.

El cambio climático es uno de los mayores desafíos a los que nos enfrentamos en el siglo XXI. Los niños, niñas y adolescentes son especialmente vulnerables a sus efectos y han levantado su voz exigiendo justicia climática y un mayor reconocimiento en esta lucha ante la falta de atención de los estados. Aunque se han mejorado sus derechos para participar en la toma de decisiones, todavía no se han visto acciones concretas, especialmente en el sur global. En este artículo se propone el concepto de «reconocimiento recíproco de capacidades» como una manera de empoderar a los niños, niñas y adolescentes. Se concluye que es fundamental abordar este reconocimiento a nivel micropolítico.

A partir de un modelo de enseñanza-aprendizaje, se definen las competencias y capacidades necesarias para lograr el tránsito circular y se asocian a estos, los tipos de actividades educativas dinámicas que contribuyen a generarlas. Asimismo, se expone la importancia del aprendizaje activo, para generar un marco completo, coherente y práctico en la experiencia académica.

El libro de Carmen Martínez Vargas titulado “Democratising Participatory Research: Pathways to Social Justice from the South”, es una invitación desde el Sur Global, en este caso desde Sudáfrica, a repensar la forma de producir conocimiento. En el libro hace un llamado a las universidades para abrir la generación de conocimiento a la sociedad, democratizando los procesos de manera que se incorpore el conocimiento de aquellas personas situadas en los márgenes. Para ello propone las “democratic capabilities research”, inspiradas en el Enfoque de Capacidades para generar conocimiento de manera más democrática. El libro es muy recomendable para aquellas universidades y personal investigador que quiera reflexionar sobre sus prácticas investigadoras desde una óptica de justicia social. También es una invitación a reconsiderar cómo hacemos la investigación participativa considerando nuestros sesgos occidentales.

Este artículo es resultado de la investigación Mujeres, capacidades y construcción de escenarios de paz en Samaná Caldas, realizada en el Corregimiento de Encimadas con el objetivo de identificar, analizar, y comprender las capacidades desarrolladas por las mujeres para construir escenarios de paz en sus familias y comunidades. Es una investigación cualitativa, dialógica narrativa con un enfoque hermenéutico que da prioridad a los procesos relacionales y a las formas de expresar y compartir las experiencias vividas por ocho mujeres sobrevivientes del conflicto armado. Los resultados revelan y resaltan cómo aunque las condiciones materiales, sociales e institucionales siguen siendo precarias, estas mujeres han ido descubriendo y desarrollando en su día a día fortalezas como la persistencia, el liderazgo, el empoderamiento y el auto reconocimiento, que combinan y concretan en capacidades de resiliencia, solidaridad y participación para revertir la lógica de las violencias, aprovechar cualquier circunstancia o condición social, económica, cultural y política que les posibilite impulsar acciones de cambio y fomentar escenarios familiares y comunitarios como entornos fundamentales para construir formas de vida más dignas, pacíficas y florecientes.

Today's multidimensional global crisis is fundamentally a crisis of humanity characterized by the failure of human's relationship with nature, with themselves and with others. In this way, our main challenges today can be synthesized in the solution of environmental crisis, the responsible freedom to build meaningful personal lives and democratic societies, as well as the deep reform of the world system to build conditions of justice and fraternity. The answer to these challenges requires the formation of future generations in a planetary citizenship, critical and co-responsible for the future of humanity, which is today an ethical imperative. This work seeks to provide theoretical elements to conceptualize this education. The starting point is the notion of Cosmopolis, raised by Lonergan not as utopia or ideal system, but as a dynamism of direct, critical, and ethical intelligence to build communities committed to transforming the world. Based on the perspectives of Morin and Nussbaum, the complex lessons and strategic capabilities needed to make this construction operational are proposed. Finally, the two fundamental vectors of a humanizing story according to Lonergan are presented as guiding axes: The creative and the curative. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article presents the results of a documentary review regarding the process of conceptual construction of citizenship and how it is constituted as a thematic and knowledge field in education. We take Marshall's emblematic proposal as a starting point, whose contribution is still valid, despite having been built in the fifties of the 20th century, and having been criticized many times, giving rise to various controversies and positions regarding the dimensions and characteristics that should be considered or guided by citizens, both when analyzing it and for the construction of proposals. The exploration is located within the framework of a project called indicators and processes in the conformation of active, critical, and transformative citizenship in students of high school and higher education (undergraduate and postgraduate). In the same way, as part of the participation in the states of knowledge of the Mexican Council of Educational Research (Consejo Mexicano de Investigación Educativa, Comie). The results of this exploration reveal that Marshall's theory constitutes a watershed for the emergence of new dimensions and adjectives of citizenship, especially when considering social rights, including health and education, as evocative of cultural rights, personal differentiation, and ecological rights.
