( Socorro Del Pilar Jimenez Alvarez ) 고려대학교 스페인·라틴아메리카연구소 2014 스페인라틴아메리카연구 Vol.7 No.2

El trabajo que a continuacion se presenta, es el resultado de la investigacion etnografica de campo realizada en Ejido Lacandon durante el 2014. Este poblado se localiza en la llamada zona de influencia de la Selva Lacandona. En este lugar se registro la tecnologia alfarera relacionada con los procesos productivos de suministro, preparacion de la arcilla, modo de elaboracion y quema de los objetos domesticos. El uso de la materia prima local se relaciona con factores ambientales y culturales. La preparacion de la arcilla se relaciona con conocimientos aprendidos en el contexto sociocultural. En el modo de elaboracion de los objetos y la quema aun se practica de manera tradicional. Al final del escrito se hace reflexion acerca de la tecnologia alfarera de produccion y uso del lugar investigado como evento de aculturacion comunitaria. Tambien se hace hincapie en las diferencias de lo tangible e intangible asi la interrelacion existente en los terminos de produccion y uso. Etnias, migraciones y contextos historicos permiten explicar la variacion en el uso de la tecnologia domestica a traves del tiempo.

This paper analyzes the life cycle behavior of household’s labor income in Mexico, and its differences across income deciles, using the data from the 2018 National Survey of Household Income and Expenditures (ENIGH) in Mexico. Our results show that, controlling for education, salary grows faster for households within the higher deciles compared to those in the lower ones. Households in the higher deciles also have longer periods of income growth. The results suggest that even with similar education levels, salary inequality prevails, which is probably due to inequality of opportunities for the different social groups.

DIALOGISMO Y HEGEMONÍA KIRCHNERISTA. APORTES PARA UN ANÁLISIS DE SU DISCURSO

Natalia C. Del Cogliano Institute of Iberoamerican Studies Pusan Universit 2012 International Journal of Latin American Studies Vol.2 No.-

Resumen. El estudio de la materia discursiva en las praxis políticas contemporáneas tiene una vigencia particular en el escenario político actual argentino, en el que la disputa por el uso de la palabra devino foco de atención. Centrándose en dicho terreno, este trabajo aborda un discurso del ex-presidente argentino Néstor Kirchner. Para ello se retoman los enfoques de dos grandes teóricos: Bajtín y Laclau. Ambas perspectivas confluyen en la forma en que el lenguaje opera como terreno primario para la constitución de lo político. Esto se manifiesta de dos modos: por el carácter dialógico propio de la enunciación y por una dinámica de fuerzas que pujan por la determinación del sentido. El discurso puede entenderse como un complejo de elementos en el que las relaciones juegan un rol constitutivo por estar la totalidad implicada en cada acto individual de significación. El mismo se despliega en un ámbito de luchas por la definición y la apropiación de los signos, que en Bajtín aparece como una batalla ideológica por la fijación de significados, y en Laclau, como una operación hegemónica que un particular intenta trasladarse a una instancia de representación de un universal tendencialmente vacío, proceso del cual Néstor Kirchner fue cabal representante. Abstract. The study of discourse in the current political practice is of particular importance in Argentina’s present political scenario, where the dispute over the use of the word became centre of attention. Focusing on this field of inquiry, this paper studies a speech given by the former Argentinean president Nestor Kirchner. In order to do so, two major theoretical approaches will be considered: those of Mikhail Bakhtin and Ernesto Laclau. Both perspectives converge in the sense that language operates as a primary site for the constitution of politics. Discourse can be understood as a complex compound of elements in which relations play a constitutive role for being all involved in each individual act of significance. This is displayed in a field defined by the struggle for the definition and ownership of the signs, which according to Bakhtin appears as an ideological battle for the fixation of meanings, whereas at Laclau, it consists of a hegemonic operation where a particular tries to move to an instance of representation of a tendentially empty universal, a process of which Kirchner was fully representative.

Benign osteoblastoma of the mandible: a case report

María del Carmen Navas-Aparicio(María del Carmen Navas-Aparicio ) 대한구강악안면외과학회 2023 대한구강악안면외과학회지 Vol.49 No.1

Osteoblastoma is a rare benign neoplasm formed by osteoid tissue and well-vascularized bone that occurs mainly in children and adolescents. It appears primarily in the long bones, vertebral column, and small bones of the hands and feet, and not typically in the skull and maxillary bones. The purpose of this study is to present the case of an 8-year-old girl with a diagnosis of right mandibular osteoblastoma and a review of the relevant literature. The goals of treatment were to preserve dental occlusion, masticatory function and facial symmetry while minimizing the effects on patient body image and quality of life. Osteoblastoma, although it is benign, can be aggressive, and its treatment will depend on the timing of diagnosis, size and location. Early diagnosis is essential to avoid not only radical surgery as in the case presented, but also to help minimize the risk of possible relapse and potential malignancy of a benign osteoblastoma.

De la descentralización al centralismo en los procesos electorales

German Perez Fernandez del Cas,Pablo Armando Gonzalez Ulloa A 한국라틴아메리카학회 2011 라틴아메리카연구 Vol.24 No.2

Since the beginning of Mexico’s independence, the states have pressed for decentralization such that federalization has been necessary to contain the unrest of some territories standing against the formation of the Congress which became the bearer of national sovereignty after Iturbide's abdication in 1823. Irrespective of what one means by federalization, in the field of electoral politics it is a real phenomenon which manifests the contradictory tendencies of federalization and of the official, traditional federalist discourse in the country. Following upon these contradictory tendencies, the configuration of the Mexican electoral system has undergone various transformations, through the passing of laws and constitutional reforms that have gradually led to a centralization of the electoral process. The Electoral Act of 1946 initiated the construction of this centralization upon the stipulation that municipalities relinquish all powers relating to the organization of municipal and federal elections. Then tendency toward centralization was later reinforced when the Federal Electoral Tribunal of Judiciary Power of the Federation was established and endowed with the right to intervene in the state and municipal elections. Finally, a recently held electoral reform has a series of centralized attributes that give new powers to the Federal Electoral Institute.

Alicia del Carmen Marinas Tapi 한국라틴아메리카학회 2013 라틴아메리카연구 Vol.26 No.4

In Peru handicraft production is an activity complementary to agriculture which transmits cultural traditions across the generations. This article presents an analysis of the Fair Trade practices inside two organizations which support the production and marketing of Peruvian artisanal handicrafts. First, basic information is presented concerning the Fair Trade, its definition, practices, and products. Next, information regarding Peruvian artisanal products is presented as along with Fair Trade handcrafts export data. Two handicrafts producer organizations are then analyzed as case studies of Fair Trade practices carried out for producer communities in the Peruvian Andes where conditions of extreme poverty predominate. Through these case studies the article provides a detailed description of how the implementation of Fair Trade practices in the selected Peruvian handicrafts producer organizations has helped them enhance their markets.

María Del Rocío Bonilla,José Luis del Olmo Arriaga,David Andreu 한국마케팅과학회 2019 Journal of Global Fashion Marketing Vol.10 No.4

The aim of this study is to analyse the interactions between fashion brands and their followers on social networks, focusing on empirically determining the relationship established between the fast fashion company H&M and its users on the social network Instagram. This analysis focuses on determining the type of post that generates greater engagement for the company’s Instagram account. Therefore, a classification and subsequent statistical treatment of the content of the posts of this account was carried out throughout 2017. Three categorization systems were used for this analysis in order to determine engagement from the point of view of the content of the message, the company’s communication strategy, and formal aspects and product category presented in the post. To date, research on the interaction of fashion brands with users on social networks has focused primarily on other platforms of social interaction other than Instagram. In contrast, this study makes an important contribution to research on the interaction of a fast fashion brand with users of the most specialized social network in this sector.

Objective: To develop and explore the usefulness of an artificial intelligence system for the prediction of the need for dental extractions during orthodontic treatments based on gender, model variables, and cephalometric records. Methods: The gender, model variables, and radiographic records of 214 patients were obtained from an anonymized data bank containing 314 cases treated by two experienced orthodontists. The data were processed using an automated machine learning software (Auto-WEKA) and used to predict the need for extractions. Results: By generating and comparing several prediction models, an accuracy of 93.9% was achieved for determining whether extraction is required or not based on the model and radiographic data. When only model variables were used, an accuracy of 87.4% was attained, whereas a 72.7% accuracy was achieved if only cephalometric information was used. Conclusions: The use of an automated machine learning system allows the generation of orthodontic extraction prediction models. The accuracy of the optimal extraction prediction models increases with the combination of model and cephalometric data for the analytical process.
