Kartographie der Gegenoffensive: Das Gespenst des Feminismus

Kartographie der Gegenoffensive: Das Gespenst des Feminismus; Cartography of the Counteroff ensive: The specter of feminism Gago, Maria Veronica Die feministischen Bewegungen weltweit und die sich darin artikulierenden Feminismen fordern die etablierten Mächte heraus, und diese haben eine dreifache – kirchliche, ökonomische und militärische – Gegenoff ensive entfacht, gestützt unter anderem auf die öff entliche Verurteilung der ›Gender-Ideologie‹. Dabei werden verschiedene Taktiken genutzt. So wird die ›Gender-Ideologie‹ mit dem Kolonialismus verknüpft oder der Feminismus als triviale Politik der Mittelklasse infantilisiert und den allgemeinen Nöten großer Teile der Bevölkerung entgegengestellt.; Feminist movements around the world and the feminisms articulated within them are defying the established powers. Th e latter have unleashed a counter-off ensive based, among other things, on the public condemnation of ‘gender ideology’. Various tactics are used to achieve this. For example, ‘gender ideology’ is linked to colonialism, or feminism is infantilised as a trivial middle-class policy and set against the general needs of large parts of the population.

La significatividad del ciclo del agua: un camino para explorar modos de construir una educación científica intercultural; The significance of water cycle: exploring ways to build an intercultural scientific education; O significado do ciclo da água: exploração de maneiras de construir uma educação científica intercultural Bonan, María Leonor; Bonanata, Julieta; Gonzalez, Maria Lorena; Pittaro, Ana; Chadwick, Geraldine; Azpiazu Garrido, Santiago Martín El presente artículo de investigación presenta parte de los resultados de un proyecto desarrollado por el Grupo de Investigación en Educación Científica Intercultural (Grupo ieci) del Instituto cefie de la Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales (fcen) de la Universidad de Buenos Aires (uba). Para su realización se intervino en algunas instituciones educativas a las que asisten estudiantes, mayoritariamente, del pueblo originario qom. Siendo parte de una investigación-acción sobre Educación Científica Intercultural (eci), el objetivo específico de este trabajo fue encontrar puntos de contacto o vínculos entre conocimientos científicos y vernáculos, mediante una temática común; con este fin, se decidió trabajar con una comunidad qom de las provincias de Chaco y Formosa, Argentina. Asimismo, se diseñaron una serie de actividades didácticas exploratorias con la intención de develar la aparición de componentes culturales científicos y vernáculos sobre el agua, uno de los elementos más importantes para la vida humana. Esto se desarrolló al poner en diálogo tres relatos ancestrales donde intervinieron distintos seres de la cultura qom relacionados con el tópico elegido y los procesos que atraviesa el agua desde la mirada de la ciencia escolar. Parte de los objetivos generales de la investigación fueron la creación de materiales didácticos interculturales para generar conciencia de la diversidad cultural que integra nuestra sociedad.; This work presents part of the research results of the Research Group in Intercultural Scientific Education (ise Group) of the cefie Institute of the Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences (fens) of the University of Buenos Aires (uba). To develop this process, some educational institutions that are attended by students from the qom native people, were intervened by the investigators. Being part of an action research on Intercultural Scientific Education (eci), its specific objective was to find points of contact or links between scientific knowledge and vernacular through a common theme in a qom community of Chaco and Formosa provinces, Argentina. A series of exploratory didactic activities were designed in such a way as to reveal the appearance of scientific cultural components and vernacular on water, one of the most important elements for human life. Starting from putting into dialogue three ancient stories where different beings from the qom culture intervene related to the chosen topic and the processes that water goes through from the school science point of view. Part of the general research is the creation of intercultural teaching materials to raise awareness of the cultural diversity that integrates our society.; Este artigo apresenta parte dos resultados da pesquisa do Grupo de Pesquisa em Educação Científica Intercultural (Grupo peci) do Instituto cefie da Faculdade de Ciências Exatas e Naturais (fcen) da Universidade de Buenos Aires (uba).

Parte da pesquisa geral é a criação de materiais interculturais de ensino para aumentar a conscientização sobre a diversidade cultural que integra nossa sociedade.

El voto transnacional de los grupos migrantes en Argentina

El voto transnacional de los grupos migrantes en Argentina Cruset, Maria Eugenia; Silva, María Paz; Malagamba, María Lara Los nuevos estudios en ciencias sociales han permitido entender los procesos migratorios como fenómenos dinámicos que no se circunscriben a las fronteras de los Estados nación y que dan una proyección de acción en origen y en destino a los grupos migrantes. Esto nos lleva a reformular conceptos tradicionales como el de ciudadanía política. En este trabajo, analizaremos el voto transnacional de los inmigrantes italianos, croatas y paraguayos en la Argentina.; New studies in Social Sciences have allowed us to understand migratory processes as dynamic phenomena that are not circumscribed to the borders of nation-states and that give a projection of action in origin and destination to migrant groups. This leads us to reformulate traditional concepts such as political citizenship. In this paper we will analyze the transnational vote of Italian, Croatian and Paraguayan immigrants in Argentina.

Información dura-pública y blanda-privada publicada por candidatos y candidatas en Instagram durante la campaña electoral en Argentina 2019

Información dura-pública y blanda-privada publicada por candidatos y candidatas en Instagram durante la campaña electoral en Argentina 2019; Hard-public information and soft-private information posted by candidates on Instagram during the 2019 Argentinian electoral campaign García Beaudoux, Virginia Inés; Slimovich, Ana En este artículo se presentan los resultados de una investigación que explora las características de las publicaciones efectuadas en Instagram por candidatos y candidatas a cargos electivos en Argentina durante la campaña para las elecciones 2019. Se analizó la proporción de información dura-pública e información blanda-privada o politainment que publicaron, y qué tipo de publicación recibió más likes. Los resultados indican la necesidad de redefinir las categorías analíticas “información dura” e “información blanda” tal como se las utiliza actualmente para estudiar este tipo de fenómenos de comunicación política.; This paper presents the results of a research that explores the main features of Instagram publications of the candidates that participated in the electoral campaign that took place in Argentina in 2019. The proportion of hard-public information and soft-private information or politainment was analyzed, as well as which type of publications received more “likes”. The results indicate the need to redefine the analytical categories hard information and soft information as they are currently used to study political communication phenomena.

Protección social, políticas de cuidados y discapacidad para personas mayores: Argentina 2016-2020

Protección social, políticas de cuidados y discapacidad para personas mayores: Argentina 2016-2020; Social protection, care and disability policies for the elderly: Argentina 2016-2020 Venturiello, María Pía; Cirino, Estefanía Claudia; Palermo, María Cecilia El elevado envejecimiento demográfico acompañado de un sostenido crecimiento de la discapacidad son fenómenos que influyen en las transferencias intergeneracionales, en el aumento de la demanda de los servicios de salud y de cuidados de larga duración y en las políticas de previsión social para las personas mayores. Este escenario plantea desafíos sociales y políticos a nivel estatal: ¿se cumplen las leyes de protección integral para las personas con discapacidad? ¿Cómo afectan las reformas previsionales en la situación de los jubilados y pensionados actuales y futuros? ¿Qué rupturas y continuidades se encuentran entre las políticas públicas llevadas a cabo en los últimos dos gobiernos del país? En un contexto de fragmentación de las políticas de protección social, las estrategias del Estado dirigidas hacia personas mayores y hacia personas con discapacidad no conforman un sistema integral y continuo. Esto se refleja en las medidas tomadas en las últimas dos gestiones de gobierno encabezadas por Mauricio Macri (2016-19) y Alberto Fernandez (2019-en curso). En el contexto actual de pandemia por Covid-19, estas cuestiones se han visto agravadas al construirse mecanismos que implican una desprotección sobre los derechos de los ciudadanos de estos grupos. En este trabajo se analizan las transformaciones acaecidas en las políticas de protección social en Argentina referidas a previsión social, salud y cuidados para las personas de 60 años y más y con alguna discapacidad, describiendo las principales medidas implementadas durante estos gobiernos. El interés se centra en describir las normativas teniendo en cuenta continuidades y/o rupturas destinadas a dicha población. La metodología se basa en el relevamiento de fuentes secundarias (leyes y decretos, revisión bibliográfica, análisis de encuestas poblacionales, rastreo de diarios nacionales).; The high demographic aging accompanied by a sustained growth in disability. These are phenomena that influence intergenerational transfers, the increase in demand for health and long-term care services, and social security policies for the elderly. This scenario poses social and political challenges at the state level: are the comprehensive protection laws for people with disabilities being complied with? How do pension reforms affect the situation of current and future retirees and pensioners? What breaks and continuities are found between the public policies carried out in the last two governments of the country? In a context of fragmentation of social protection policies, the State's strategies aimed at the elderly and people with disabilities do not make up a comprehensive and continuous system. This is reflected in the measures taken in the last two government administrations headed by Mauricio Macri (2016- 19) and Alberto Fernandez (2019-ongoing). In the current context of the Covid-19 pandemic, these issues have been aggravated by the construction of mechanisms that imply a lack of protection of the rights of the citizens of these groups. This paper analyse the transformations that have taken place in the social protection policies in Argentina regarding social security, health and care for people aged 60 years and over and with some disability, describing the main measures implemented during these governments. The interest is focused on describing the regulations taking into account continuities and / or ruptures aimed at said population. The methodology is based on the survey of secondary sources (laws and decrees, bibliographic review, analysis of population surveys, tracking of national newspapers.

Pomba gira y otr@s chic@s del montón: Kimbanda queer en Buenos Aires

Pomba gira y otr@s chic@s del montón: Kimbanda queer en Buenos Aires; Pomba gira and other girls of the heap: Kimbanda queer in Buenos Aires Ojeda, Pablo Maximiliano Este artículo analiza las prácticas de un grupo de mujeres trans y hombres gays no binarios, miembros iniciados de un templo afroumbandista del Gran Buenos Aires. En particular, profundiza sobre sus experiencias de expresión sexo-genérica en torno a la kimbanda, línea que experimenta en los últimos años un notable crecimiento en el ámbito local. Mediante observaciones y entrevistas en profundidad, indaga en el vínculo que se establece entre los adeptos y la entidad femenina patrocinante del ritual, Pomba Gira. En este sentido, explora las construcciones identitarias que se cimentan en el transcurrir cotidiano de la vida en el templo legitimadas por aspectos míticos, sociorreligiosos e históricos.; This paper analyzes the practices of a group of trans women and non-binary gay men, initiated members of an Afro-Umbandista temple in Buenos Aires. In particular, delves into her experiences of gender expression around kimbanda, a line that has experienced a remarkable growth in recent years at the local level. Through in-depth observations and interviews, she investigates the link established between the followers and the female sponsor of the ritual, Pomba Gira. Finally, it identifies that this identity construction is not only based on the daily life of the temple, but is legitimized by mythical, socio-religious and historical aspects.

La forma de la expansión urbana en una ciudad media del interior de la pampa bonaerense desde una perspectiva histórica urbano-ambiental (1779-2021)

La forma de la expansión urbana en una ciudad media del interior de la pampa bonaerense desde una perspectiva histórica urbano-ambiental (1779-2021); The shape of urban expansion in a middle city in the interior of the pampa bonaerense from an urban-environmental historical perspective (1779-2021) Giusti, Mariana; Goicoechea, María Eugenia El presente artículo tiene por objetivo analizar las formas y tendencias que adoptó la expansión de la matriz edificada de una ciudad intermedia localizada en el interior de la región pampeana bonaerense (Chascomús, Provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina). El estudio abarca el período 1779-2021 y se centra en la tríada historia, territorio y norma. Con un diseño metodológico que recupera y sistematiza una gran base empírica, se integran en el análisis: el efecto de las relaciones históricas, económicas y sociales; las características territoriales y ambientales; y la influencia de las normativas en las formas que adoptó la expansión urbana. El trabajo, además de ser ilustrativo de un contexto general de crisis del modelo de desarrollo geográfico basado en la primacía urbana y del cuestionamiento al afianzamiento de estructuras macrocefálicas, aporta al conocimiento de las dificultades que se presentan en este tipo de ciudades, recorriendo su conformación físico-espacial, sus limitaciones, amenazas y potencialidades.; The objective of this article is to analyze the forms and trends adopted by the expansion of the built matrix of an intermediate city located in the interior of the Buenos Aires Pampean region (Chascomús, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina). The study covers the period 1779-2021 and focuses on the triad of history, territory and norm. With a methodological design that recovers and systematizes a great empirical base, the following aspects are integrated into the analysis: the effect of historical, economic and social relationships; territorial and environmental characteristics; and the influence of regulations on the forms adopted by urban expansion. The work, in addition to being illustrative of a general context of crisis of the geographic development model based on urban primacy and the questioning of the consolidation of macrocephalic structures, contributes to the knowledge of the difficulties that arise in this type of cities, covering their physical-spatial conformation, its limitations, threats and potentialities.

Development of a honey-based powder ingredient using a mixture design: Botanical origin effect and hydration properties

Development of a honey-based powder ingredient using a mixture design: Botanical origin effect and hydration properties Rivero, Roy Cristian; Archaina, Diego Alberto; Busquet, Cynthia Melisa; Baldi Coronel, Bertha Mabel; Busch, Verónica María The aim of this research was to develop and characterize a high honey content powder with good functional, sensory and hydration properties. A four-responses (hygroscopicity, solubility, cohesiveness and global sensory acceptability) D-optimal mixture design by Design Expert was used. Three factors were selected for the freeze-drying process: honey (60–80%), gum arabic – GA(0–40%) and whey protein concentrate – WPC (0–40%). Three optimal formulations (physicochemical–OPCP–, sensory–OSP– and combined–OCP–) with 72–74% of honey and different GA:WPC ratios were studied. The model prediction was successfully confirmed for the optimal points. Hydration and antioxidant characteristics were evaluated in optimal formulations for honey of three different botanical origins (Eucalyptus, Citrus and Prairie). Water sorption isotherms were sigmoid shape type II for all samples, with a slight difference at high aw for OSP. Flowability (4.5–16.3Ci), hygroscopicity (19.5–24.4 g/100 g), and solubility (87.1–94.6%), were within typical ranges. The botanical origin showed little influence in the physicochemical characteristics but showed differences in the antiradical activity (Prairie honey showed the highest values). These honey powders could be used in a variety of products in the food industry, as food ingredients or directly as a natural sweetener, promoting and diversifying honey consumption.

Oily Bilge Wastes Harbor a Set of Persistent Hydrocarbonoclastic Bacteria Accompanied by a Variable alkB Gene Composition in Marine Vessel Samples from Southwestern Atlantic Port of Mar del Plata, Argentina

Oily Bilge Wastes Harbor a Set of Persistent Hydrocarbonoclastic Bacteria Accompanied by a Variable alkB Gene Composition in Marine Vessel Samples from Southwestern Atlantic Port of Mar del Plata, Argentina Corti Monzón, Georgina de la Paz; Nisenbaum, Melina; Peressutti, Silvia Rita Peressutti; Junca, Howard; García Bonilla, Erika; Murialdo, Silvia Elena The present work provides the first knowledge about the diversity and functionality of the microorganisms occurring in oily bilge wastes, from the port of Mar del Plata, Argentina. We used a culture independent approach, based on massive sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene (Illumina), to analyze the microbiome structure from different oily bilge wastes. To gain insight into functional biomarkers for hydrocarbon (HC) degradation in these wastes, the occurrence of alkB genes in the degrading bacteria communities was also investigated trough PCR-DGGE method. The microbial compositions were determined in bilge waste oily phase (BWOP) samples from a deep-sea, a fishing ship, a dredge ship, a small coastal vessel, and an open pool, where bilge wastes from Mar del Plata’s vessels are deposited. A core microbiome with OTUs classified as bacterial types associated with HC biodegradation was found across all samples. Seven highly predominant and stable bacterial types accounted for 82% of the relative composition determined in all the BWOP samples. These results indicate that oily bilge is a strong selector for bacteria having common taxonomical and functional features, independent of the vessel of collection. Alkane degradation marker gene alkB PCR-DGGE fingerprinting showed distinct diversity patterns among the samples. Our analysis showed that there is a well-defined bacterial assemblage able to withstand and thrive in the harsh conditions of the oily bilge wastes. Also, a well-established aliphatic biodegradation potential marker was detected, indicating that it could promptly be used for the generation of new bioremediation technologies.

Revisiting British Investment in Latin America: The River Plate Trust Group, 1879–1963

Revisiting British Investment in Latin America: The River Plate Trust Group, 1879–1963 Lanciotti, Norma Silvana The article analyses the performance and profitability of the firms controlled by the River Plate Trust Group in Argentina and Uruguay from 1879 to 1960 to challenges the notion that British investments in the Southern Cone involved greater default or insolvency risks because of nationalism, expropriations, and over-taxation. Also known as Morris or Morrison group, River Plate Trust became the most important British business group in the region during the First Global Period, as it controlled a number of public utilities, mortgage and financial firms. Our case shows that the decline of British investment in mortgage and financial activities did not mark the end of this business cycle after WWI; rather, it signalled a change in the direction of capital flows. Capital outflows from host economies to Great Britain—via dividends—continued over the interwar period, with only a brief interruption between 1931 and 1934. The business cycle of British firms entered a new phase, characterized by stagnant British investments and increasing capital returns from Argentina and Uruguay to Great Britain. Moreover, British public utility firms continued to invest in the River Plate until the 1940s, because profits from the region supported the distribution of high dividends to shareholders.

Sulfate performance of calcined illitic shales

Sulfate performance of calcined illitic shales Cordoba, Gisela Paola; Irassar, Edgardo Fabián In the past, calcined pozzolans were largely used in massive concrete, and nowadays, they appear as an excellent alternative to reduce the clinker factor in general use cement. The pozzolanic activity of two calcined illitic shales (CIS) is verified using different standards, indicating the importance of the water requirement for these pozzolans. The sulfate performance of blended cement containing 0, 20, and 40% of CIS was studied with high and low C3A cement using the ASTM C1012 test. Results show that highly reactive CIS is necessary to control the expansion of high C3A-cement at constant w/cm. For low-C3A cement, the highly reactive CIS provides high-sulfate resistant cement with low CIS-replacement, while the water requirement of the other CIS is the main shortcoming to obtain this property. CIS contributes to sulfate resistance due to the CH-consumption and reduction of ions ingress that impedes ettringite and gypsum formation.

Comparison of premix glyphosate and 2,4-D formulation and direct tank mixture for control of Conyza canadensis and Epilobium ciliatum

Comparison of premix glyphosate and 2,4-D formulation and direct tank mixture for control of Conyza canadensis and Epilobium ciliatum Palma Bautista, Candelario; Cruz Hipólito, Hugo E.; Alcántara de la Cruz, Ricardo; Vázquez García, José G.; Yanniccari, Marcos Ezequiel; De Prado, Rafael Premix or tank mix of glyphosate and 2,4-D are a good alternative to control glyphosate-resistant and -tolerant weeds; however, the combination of herbicides may increase the environmental impacts, since mixtures often have higher toxicity than a single herbicide. In addition, antagonism between these herbicides has also been reported. We compared the efficacy of a premix glyphosate+2,4-D formulation with respect to the tank mix of both herbicides on glyphosate-resistant Conyza canadensis and -tolerant Epilobium ciliatum populations in laboratory and field experiments. 2,4-D suppressed the glyphosate-resistance/tolerance of both species, whose populations presented similar responses to their susceptible counterparts (LD50 ≥ 480+320 g ha−1 glyphosate + 2,4-D, respectively). Plants of both species treated with the premix formulations retained ∼100-μL more herbicide solution, accumulated 20–25% and 28–38% more shikimate and ethylene, respectively, and presented greater 14C-glyphosate absorption and translocation, depending on the species, compared to plants treated with the tank mix treatment. Although doubling the field dose (720 + 480 g ha−1) improved (5–22%) the control of these weeds in the field, split applications of both premix and tank mix provided the best control levels (≤70%), but premix treatments maintained control levels above 85% for longer (120-d). No antagonism between glyphosate and 2,4-D was found. The addition of 2,4-D controlled both broadleaf species. For all parameters evaluated on the C. canadensis and E. ciliatum populations in the laboratory and in the field, the premix treatments showed better performance than the tank mix treatments. Premix formulations could reduce the environmental impact of herbicides used to control glyphosate resistant/tolerant weeds by decreasing the herbicide amount needed to achieve an acceptable weed control level.

La campaña se presenta como una de las diferentes iniciativas que se llevan a cabo en América Latina para visibilizar, problematizar, promover y delinear nuevas agendas para seguir trabajando por una educación superior antirracista e intercultural. De esta manera, se torna en un espacio singular y colectivo para nutrirse e inspirarse en análisis empíricos de las expresiones y situaciones de racismo ‒sentidas, pensadas y enfrentadas por diferentes sujetos que lideran su enfrentamiento‒dentro y fuera de las IES.

Resistance to β-lactams in Streptococcus pneumoniae

Resistance to β-lactams in Streptococcus pneumoniae Von Specht, Martha Helena; García Gabarrot, Gabriela; Mollerach, Marta Eugenia; Bonofiglio, Laura; Gagetti, Paula Silvana; Kaufman, Sara; Vigliarolo, Laura; Toresani, Silvia María Ines; Lopardo, Horacio Angel Streptococcus pneumoniae is an important causal agent of pneumonia, meningitis, sepsis, bacteremia, and otitis media. Penicillin resistance rates in S. pneumoniae have remained stable in Argentina in the last years. In the late ?90s more isolates with MIC of penicillin ≥2 μg/ml were observed; however, their frequency has decreased in recent years. The phenotypic expression of penicillin resistance is due to a modification in penicillin-binding proteins associated with a mosaic structure in the coding genes. The expansion of successful resistant clones varies among the different regions and is influenced by the use of antibiotics, vaccines, particularly conjugated ones, as well as population density. Parenteral treatment with high doses of penicillin G continues to be effective for the treatment of pneumonia and bacteremia, oral aminopenicillins for otitis media and sinusitis and third generation cephalosporins for meningitis.

Da Dilma a Bolsonaro: Crisi d’egemonia e svolta autoritaria in Brasile?

Da Dilma a Bolsonaro: Crisi d’egemonia e svolta autoritaria in Brasile? Clemente, Dario Considering the events that affected Brazil between 2013 and 2016 as a crisis of hegemony, the author analyses the impeachment of the President of the Republic, Dilma Rousseff, and the consequent election of Jair Bolsonaro as an authoritarian turn supported by the Brazilian ruling class. The hypothesis is that recent events in Brazil determined the closure of a political cycle that began in 1988 and the opening of a new phase.; Considerando los hechos que afectaron a Brasil entre 2013 y 2016 como una crisis de hegemonía, el autor examina el impeachment de la presidenta de la republica Dilma Rousseff y la consecuente elección de Jair Bolsonaro como una salida autoritaria apoyada por las clases dominantes brasileñas. La hipótesis es que los eventos recientes en Brasil han marcado el cierre de un ciclo político comenzado en 1988 y abierto una nueva fase.; Considerando gli avvenimenti che hanno interessato il Brasile tra il 2013 e il 2016 come una crisi d’egemonia, l’autore esamina la messa in stato di accusa della presidente della repubblica Dilma Rousseff e la conseguente elezione di Jair Bolsonaro come svolta autoritaria sostenuta dalle classi dominanti brasiliane. L’ipotesi è che i recenti avvenimenti in Brasile segnalino la chiusura di un ciclo politico iniziato nel 1988 e l’apertura di una fase nuova.

"Una esquina muy particular": disputas patrimoniales en un ex centro clandestino de detención de la ciudad de Rosario (2015-2019)

"Una esquina muy particular": disputas patrimoniales en un ex centro clandestino de detención de la ciudad de Rosario (2015-2019); “A very particular corner”: heritage disputes in a former clandestine detention center of Rosario city (2015-2019) Cinto, Agustina El artículo se propone analizar una serie de disputas patrimoniales en torno al ex centro clandestino de detención (CCD) Servicio de Informaciones de la Policía de Santa Fe, ubicado en la ciudad de Rosario, que funcionó entre los años 1976 y 1980, durante la última dictadura. Considerando al patrimonio como objeto sagrado laicizado atravesado por disputas, delimitamos para el análisis el período 2015-2019, cuando el ex CCD fue inaugurado como Espacio de Memoria. Sostenemos que, en el proceso que involucra tanto al Estado como al movimiento de derechos humanos y a expertos/as de la materialidad, pueden distinguirse dos aspectos que valorizan de manera diferente al ex CCD, así como dos criterios de intervención patrimonial que conviven y se tensionan entre sí. En ese marco, la (des)sacralización patrimonial del ex CCD, sus características y prácticas posibles adquieren sentido situacionalmente, de acuerdo a los/as actores que las llevan a cabo. El problema abordado forma parte de una investigación doctoral en curso, desarrollada mediante un trabajo de campo etnográfico, que incluye observaciones participantes y entrevistas no dirigidas, acompañado de análisis documental y relevamiento periodístico y fotográfico.; This paper aims to analyze a series of heritage disputes around the former clandestine detention center (CDC) Information Service of Santa Fe’s state police department, located in Rosario city, which functioned between 1976 and 1980, during the last dictatorship. Considering heritage as a sacred laicized object and crossed by disputes, we delimited a period between 2015 and 2019 for the analysis, when the former CDC was inaugurated as Space of Memory. In this process, which involves the State, the Human Rights movement, and experts in materiality, we distinguished two aspects, which valorize it in different ways, as well as two related but opposite heritage intervention criteria. In this framework, the former CDC (des)sacralization, its characteristics, and possible practices have meaning situationally, according to the actors who carry them out. The problem is part of an ongoing doctoral research, developed through an ethnographic fieldwork since 2015, which includes participant observations and non-directive interviews, but also documentary and press analysis and photographic record.

Los discursos políticos del patrimonio: Un caso de activación patrimonial en Argentina

Los discursos políticos del patrimonio: Un caso de activación patrimonial en Argentina; The political discourses of heritage: A case of asset activation in Argentina Mariano, Mercedes; Conforti, María Eugenia Este trabajo se inscribe en el marco de un programa interdisciplinario de estudios del patrimonio, específicamente en un proyecto de investigación que busca analizar la relación que las comunidades locales de ciudades intermedias establecen con el patrimonio cultural. En este sentido, se han realizado estudios en el área centro de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina. El partido de Benito Juárez constituye uno de los casos en el que se investiga de manera sistemática desde hace 5 años. Se destacan en él algunas particularidades respecto de los procesos de puesta en valor y activación patrimonial que ponen sobre el escenario diferentes, pero articuladas, modalidades de gestión y participación: estatal, alternativas y comunitarias.Objetivo: En ese marco, se propone identificar y analizar las discursividades que se construyen, desde la perspectiva nativa estatal, durante el acto de patrimonialización de la estancia fundacional del partido:El Sol Argentino.Métodos: Se utilizó una metodología cualitativa basada en la observación participante durante el evento y el análisis de los discursos políticos públicos.Resultados: Se pudo identificar que los valores puestos en juego desde la gestión para legitimar dicho bien cultural como patrimonio local son aquellos referidos a su materialidad, especialmente sus condiciones arquitectónicas y no aquellos vinculados con una historia común que habilite nuevas lógicas de significación, uso y apropiación del bien.Conclusiones: Consideramos que el principal desafío está en promover prácticas patrimoniales que habiliten otras formas de reflexión no hegemónicas, de tipo más colectivas y comunitarias.; This work is part of an interdisciplinary program of heritage studies, specifically in a research Project that seeks to analyze the relationship that local communities in intermediate cities establish with cultural heritage. In this sense, studies have been carried out in the central area of the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Benito Juárez's party constitutes one of the cases in which it has been systematically investigated for 5 years. I thighlights some peculiarities regarding the processes of enhancement and asset activation that put on the stage different, but articulated, management and participation modalities: state, alternative and community. Objective Within this framework, it is proposed to identify and analyze the discursivities that are constructed, from the native state perspective, during the act of patrimonialization of the founding stay of the party: «El Sol Argentino». Method A qualitative methodology based on participant observation during the event and analysis of public political discourses was used. Results It was possible to identify that the values putting to play by the management to legitimize said cultural asset as local heritage are those referring to its materiality, especially its architectural conditions and not those related to a common history that enables new logics of meaning, use and appropriation of good. Conclusions We consider that the main challenge is to promote patrimonial practices that enable other forms of nonhegemonic reflection, of a more collective and community type.

"El tango es un sentimiento": Un abordaje socio semiótico de la dimensión emocional en la recepción del tango

"El tango es un sentimiento": Un abordaje socio semiótico de la dimensión emocional en la recepción del tango; “Tango is a feeling”: A social semiotic approach on the emotional dimension in tango reception Montes, Maria de Los Angeles Las emociones, los afectos, son parte fundamental del sentido que son capaces de producir la música y la danza. Y, aunque pueden parecer efectos inmediatos, son en realidad el resultado de complejos procesos inferenciales, condicionados por las prácticas de apropiación en las que se insertan. En esta comunicación presentamos los resultados de una investigación sobre la dimensión afectiva en los procesos de interpretación y apropiación del tango argentino entre milongueros. Nos preguntamos: ¿Qué se siente al escuchar y bailar el tango? ¿Por qué se producen esos efectos? ¿Cómo interpretan los milongueros esos afectos? ¿Qué ocurre cuando éstos ingresan a sus narrativas identitarias?La principal conclusión a la que arribamos es que entre los efectos emocionales producidos en el marco de esa apropiación que es la danza, y su aparición en los relatos de los milongueros, existe un salto semiótico que solo puede comprenderse correctamente en clave socio semiótica.; Emotions, affects, represent an essential part of the sense that is capable of producing music and dance. And however immidiate those effects may seem, in actuality, they are the result of complex inferential processes, conditioned by the appropriation practices in which they are inserted. In this paper, we put forth the results of a research on the affective dimension in the processes of interpretation and appropriation of Argentine tango among milongueros (casual tango dancers). We ask ourselves: How does it feel to listen to and dance tango? Why do these effects occur? How do milongueros interpret these affects? What happens when they enter their identity narratives? Our main conclusion is that among the emotional effects produced between the framework of the appropriation of the dance and their emergence in milongueros’ stories, there is a semiotic leap that can only be properly understood in a socio-semiotic key.

Time to integrate pollinator science into soybean production

Time to integrate pollinator science into soybean production Garibaldi, Lucas Alejandro; Schulte, Lisa A.; Nabaes Jodar, Diego Nicolás; Gómez Carella, Dulce Sol; Kremen, Claire Soybeans cover 129 million hectares globally. Soybean productivity can increase with pollinator management, but soybean cultivation practices commonly ignore biotic pollination. If pollinator habitats are created within soybean landscapes and policies to limit agricultural expansion are implemented, millions of hectares could be restored for biodiversity without loss of soybean production.
