El trabajo aborda una visión crítica de las autoras sobre el viaje cognitivo realizado por la maestranda Libety Martínez en la Universidad de las Artes de Cuba. Desde una perspectiva de distanciamiento se analiza el camino identitario recorrido por ésta, (Martínez/2024) para corregir limitaciones y normalizaciones impuestas por la comunidad científica en la antedicha universidad basadas en epistemocentrismos y etnocentrismos disciplinares. Este trabajo va a los estratos más remotos de estas construcciones investigativas que responden en alguna medida a relaciones de poder.

In a context marked by worsening climatic, ecological and social crises, this article offers a critical reading of the modern infrastructural paradigm, through the study of hydraulic infrastructure in India, and more specifically in the state of Rajasthan. Using an interdisciplinary approach at the intersection of anthropology, geography and architectural theory, the author examines the political, ontological and spatial imaginaries that underpin contemporary infrastructure. The article highlights the social and environmental consequences of the centralised, extractive hydraulic planning inherited from the colonial period and intensified after independence. Through the analysis of vernacular forms such as the johads and the Chand Baori, the article explores devices co-produced with the dynamics of the living, embodying a non-dual relationship between humans, territory and environments. Drawing on the work of Philippe Descola, Antoine Picon, Vandana Shiva and Bruno Latour, the author calls for an epistemological and aesthetic rethinking of infrastructural design. She proposes that infrastructure should no longer be seen as autonomous technical objects, but as situated cultural mediations capable of supporting an ecology of interdependence.

Résumé : Analyser les travaux scientifiques est une tache aussi ardue que difficile qui demande beaucoup de munitie. Cet article fait une analyse bibliométrique des mémoires de licence (Bac+5) défendus au sein du Département des Sciences et techniques Documentaires de l'Université de Kinshasa de 2014 à 2018. Les travaux produits par des universités sont de plus en plus oubliés par les autorités. Jeune qu’il soit le Département des Sciences et techniques Documentaires est parmi les rares départements que l’on retrouve dans des universités et facultés congolaises et il organise des études sur les archives, la bibliothèque et l’Edition. Mots-clés : Analyse, bibliologie, bibliometrie, memoire, Sciences et Techniques documentaires.

The emission of 2.5µm particulate matter (PM2.5) from braking systems poses a significant health hazard.  The wear of brake discs contributes to this issue. However, it can be mitigated. In this paper, a brake disk was Nickel laser cladded. Resulting in an improvement of more than 5 times of coefficient of friction and wear resistance. Likewise, under the deduced mathematical model, this improvement brings an estimative of annual reductions of 230,000 metric tons of PM2.5 not emitted; and more than 400,000 deaths, resulting from these emissions, avoided.

La tendencia en la literatura contemporánea a la figuración de las problemáticas animales se enmarca en una sensibilidad creciente de la sociedad hacia la alteridad no humana. Poniendo el foco en la temática de la industria cárnica, este artículo se propone investigar cómo la narrativa breve española contemporánea se sirve del mecanismo de animalización del ser humano para efectuar un desplazamiento del binomio ontológico animal-humano al binomio biopolítico bíos-zoé, en términos de Agamben. La figura del ser humano considerado vida fisiológica destinada al consumo, paradójicamente, restaura al animal ausente en la cultura de la carne. Así, este tipo de ficciones —fábulas invertidas— tratan al animal en sí mismo y no como medio para acceder a lo humano. Se recoge, en primer lugar, un corpus de quince relatos publicados desde el año 2014 que problematizan la cultura de la carne a través de la animalización del ser humano. En segundo lugar, se analizan dos ejemplos representativos de tales relatos: “El Pastor”, de Cristina Jurado, y “La granja”, de Izaskun Gracia. Se estudia además, desde una perspectiva de género, la vinculación entre violencia patriarcal y violencia especista planteada en las ficciones literarias.

El hábitat y la vivienda orientados a sectores sociales de bajos ingresos que conforman asentamientos informales periféricos son un tema relevante para reflexionar en toda América Latina. Este trabajo tiene por objetivo aportar al debate en la implementación de políticas públicas y, fundamentalmente, exponer soluciones que se vienen desarrollando entre diferentes actores del Estado, a partir de una metodología abierta, sistémica y dinámica, surgidas en el ámbito de la investigación-acción, para mejorar la calidad de vida en el hábitat popular. La identificación y la cuantificación de sectores sociales vulnerables, y aquellos de mayor riesgo localizados en la región del Gran La Plata (GLP), Argentina, así como la propuesta de soluciones habitacionales y sus componentes asociados, se enmarca en la producción de tecnología para la inclusión social a partir de una gestión participativa cogestionada. Los resultados muestran las posibilidades de una metodología que permite pensar soluciones habitacionales con aceptación social, para su implementación en distintos sectores urbanos.

The relationship between product pricing and product packaging plays an important role in the buying behavior of consumers, whereas customer satisfaction plays a mediating role. To test these hypotheses, research was conducted on university students in China. Questionnaire-based convenience sampling was conducted on 500 students for data collection using online and offline sources. A total of 367 (73%) students responded, and 17 questionnaires were rejected due to missing information. SPSS and AMOS software were used for the data analysis. Product pricing and product information were independent variables in this study, whereas consumer buying behavior was a dependent variable. Customer satisfaction is mediated by one dependent and two independent variables. Confirmatory factor analysis, path analysis, and discriminant validity in structural equation modeling revealed that product pricing and packaging had a statistically significant relationship with the buyer decision process. The introduction of satisfaction as a mediating variable led to the observation of full mediation in the case of product pricing and partial mediation in product packaging. Given the results of this research, product managers should adopt pricing tactics along with product packaging to influence the buying intentions of consumers.

The article is dedicated to Russian scientific sources about the modern classical guitar written by A. Petropavlovsky, V. Ganeev, K. Ilyghin, D. Krutikov. In A. Petropavlovsky’s work “Guitar in the Chamber Ensemble” three stages of the participation of the guitar within the instrumental ensemble are revealed. On this basis, the author of this article completes the classification of the Russian scientist, adding the genre of concerto for guitar and orchestra. V. Ganeev’s work “Classical Guitar in Russia: the Problem of Academic Status” deals with ideological obstacles that caused the lack of support for the instrument from the music education system. In D. Krutikov’s research entitled “The Art of Guitar in Petersburg-Petrograd-Leningrad in the First Half of the 20th Century”, are studied the influences of European and American musicians on the formation of guitar interpretation and teaching school in the Russian cultural capital. The explored sources occupy an important place in Russian historiography, providing the researchers of the modern classical guitar with an advanced methodology

Computational censorship in the form of fake news and toxic comments regulation is a subject that comes up quite often in the public discourse, as a result of the volatile political circumstances on a global scale and due to the unquestionable impact of journalism on these circumstances. Public attention has been directed to the role of mainstream and other media in the formation of public opinion, either in the form of articles or in the form of usergenerated comments. The purpose is to analyse and allow a deeper understanding of a project that is under development, namely, computational-censorship and to show that algorithmic regulation is not a solution, but rather another layer to a more fundamental problem. This article examines the implicationsof developing Machine Leraning/Artificial Iintelligence (ML/AI) which aims to regulate the internet and we attempt to allow a glimpse into the technical aspect of the problem as a way to back arguments that could be re-jected by the ML/AI research community as “non-pragmatic”. Finally, it aims to highlight the absurdity of the current approach to research in this area, which is the exact opposite of the rationalism that the field claims to be embracing.

Buona parte del patrimonio culturale esistente, materiale e immateriale, merita di essere conosciuto, conservato e valorizzato al meglio. Questo patrimonio è fondamentale per il mantenimento della diversità. La sua importanza non sta nella manifestazione culturale in sé, bensì nella ricchezza di conoscenza e competenze che vengono trasmesse da una generazione all’altra. A questo proposito, ogni anno l’associazione INTBAU promuove un evento annuale internazionale che è ospitato a rotazione da una delle nazioni rappresentate [...]

Recycling uncontaminated excavated construction soil is beneficial because it reduces the costs to abandon excess soil or obtain refill soil from a distant location while alleviating environmental burdens. For this reason, various methods and techniques to support on-site soil reuse have been explored. However, in order to increase the reuse rate, excavated soil should be recycled among different construction sites as well. As a prerequisite for reusing excess soil in this context, the construction schedules, type of soil, trading volume, and incurred costs must be coordinated. In order to consider all of these aspects, earthmoving among construction sites needs to be planned by means of multi-objective optimization. This paper aims to present a practical solution supporting inter-site soil trade by introducing a non-dominated sorting algorithm-II (NSGA-II), a type of multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA). A description of the optimization procedure is provided, and computational results are presented to prove the effectiveness of the selected method.

This paper questions the relationship between sound crowd and the principle of ludic that is present in a rite Ngarot, one of a series of rites farmers in Lelea Indramayu, West Java. Based on Homo Ludens by Johan Huizinga’thoughts and supported by its liminality by Victor Turner. many ludic nature shown through its playing principles, that is free, temporary, closed, tense, but at the same order. The nature of liminality is revealed through the presence of a celebrated rite ngarot sometime before the growing season in the early half of the rainy season, as well as celebrations carried on the threshold between the two events daily, or between an unusual event with a regular event. Key words : sound, ritual, ngarot, ludic, liminality.

This research note gives an overview of the issues raised by the protest of a group of Asian Americans and their supporters against the allegedly Orientalist and discriminatory nature of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts’s event “Kimono Wednesdays.” In this note, I assess the protestors’ claims that the kimono try-on event at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts (hereafter Boston MFA) was an instance of cultural appropriation taking place within an Orientalist framework conceptually linked to modern-day violence and discrimination toward Asian Americans. I then go on to reveal the key role of North American racial politics and identity in the protests and demonstrate how the protestors’ sense of the kimono as a symbol of pan-ethnic Asian American identity became a source of disagreement over who has the authority to represent others and say how a cultural symbol such as the kimono is worn or used, but also over Orientalism, cultural imperialism, and the concept of cultural appropriation.

L’église de Pătrăuți, bâtie en 1487 par le prince régnant de Moldavie, Étienne le Grand, a reçue son décor de peintures après cette date. C’est la plus ancienne des églises conservées, dont la tour de la nef est élevée sur un système de deux séries d’arcs superposés, appelé “voûte moldave”, et présente le premier exemple d’adaptation du programme iconographique au ce nouveau type d’élévation de la tour. Structurellement, le programme iconographique du système d’élèvement de la voûte est en continuité des principales dispositions de l’époque paléologue, mais en introduisant des éléments nouveaux, qui seront assimilés par la peinture murale postérieure en Moldavie, ce que lui accorde une position intermédiaire entre les traditions de la peinture byzantine et post-byzantine du XVIe siècle. D’un intérêt particulier sont les inscriptions sur les rouleaux des prophètes, lesquelles suivent seulement en partie le répertoire de l’époque précédente, et se distinguent par un accent eschatologique prononcé.
