Introduction: The paper "Moluscos de la Isla del Coco" (Mollusks of Cocos Island) published in the Revista del Colegio Superior de Señoritas (1935) is the translation to Spanish of one of the last works of Paul Biolley Matthey (1862-1908), Swiss naturalist that lived in Costa Rica. This article was one product of a malacological research carried out during a scientific expedition organized by the 'Instituto Físico- Geográfico Nacional de Costa Rica' (IFGN) in 1902 to Cocos Island, at a time when the country claimed its sovereignty both in this territory. Objective: To analyze the contributions of the article "Moluscos de la Isla del Coco" from the Social History of Science approach. Methods: Most of the researches that have applied this approach in Costa Rica analyze processes of institutionalization of scientific disciplines. The methodology used in these works was very useful for the analysis of the Biolley article, together with the information of historical data provided by other texts about Cocos Island and the development of scientific research in Costa Rica from a temporal perspective. In addition, tables were made to synthesize the classification of the species and genera studied by Biolley in Cocos Island to identify their provenance and the habitat in which they lived. Results: This study of Biolley constitutes a text of interest from the point of view of the Social History of Science, due to the descriptions it offers of the physical conditions of the territory of Cocos Island, of the different species of mollusks located in them and to the exchange of information with national and foreign scientists that show the participation of Biolley in scientific networks. Conclusions: The analysis of the information with the Social History of Science approach, concludes that the compilation of the flora and fauna permits a greater knowledge of the natural resources of the explored territories, in order to colonize them and integrate them into the economic dynamics of the Central Valley of Costa Rica. However, attempts colonize Cocos Island failed given the distance between this and the continent, in addition to the topographic conditions that prevent the permanent establishment of human populations and their productive activities.

Diplomat, Egyptologist, writer and historian, Eduard Toda is remembered as the man who rescued the Algherese dialect of Catalan from oblivion and who helped rebuild the monastery libraries of Escornalbou and Poblet. On the occasion of the seventy-fifth anniversary of his death, this paper reviews Toda’s book collecting activities, his general love of books and his outstanding work as a benefactor of libraries, which together contributed to enriching our country’s book heritage. The paper then turns to Toda’s relationship with the school for librarians the Escola de Bibliotecàries, which was founded thanks to his donation of a number of book collections to the Library of Catalonia. As recorded in the archives of the old Escola, this relationship was based on a number of different activities: Toda’s trips to Escornalbou, which also provided an opportunity for cultural study; his organization of periods of residence for student librarians at Poblet to help rebuild the monastery’s library; his creation of classes in book restoration in degree courses in librarianship; and the creation of a workshop for restoring library materials, which for many decades helped to link the Escola and the Library of Catalonia. Finally, as the article shows, Toda’s ties with the Escola de Bibliotecàries were reinforced by the mutual affection existing between him and the school as well as by the activities he organized with its students, which gave the school its singular nature as a place of study during the 1930s.

This paper shows how the homo oeconomicus has evolved from utility at work to consumption and then to the mystification of profit in a context of financialization and long-term crisis. Thus, a semantic slippage occurs, which distorts the achievements of capitalism, such as individualism and self-interest, for a libertarian belief -alien to liberalism, to Bentham's utilitarianism and marginalism- in which it is not possible to define social utility, nor the connection between the "rationality" of individual decisions and social choices. Usefulness is confused with profit in the primacy of today's business mentality and is often reflected in individual behavior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper studies the particularities of the educational policies of the Popular Unity. To answer this question, the context has been recreated and the main issues and conflict of these policies are explored. This objective is original because most of the investigations on this regard have studied the logic of the groups that fought to govern the country, have highlighted the differences between the educational projects of past governments or have evidenced the controversies surrounding the Unified National School. To achieve this answer, the study carried out an exhaustive review of the main primary and secondary sources in this matter [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article presents an argument about the reasons for the exclusion of Spanish women and their literary production in relation with the rest of the Group of '27 literary canon. In order to evidence the marginalization of these authors and demonstrate their absence in the cultural Spanish landscape, the article begins with an explanation of the historical and sociopolitical context of Spain during the early decades of the 20th century. Afterward, this paper presents a conceptualization of literary canon as a starting point to approach the polemic associated with the --commonly referred to as-- Generation of '27 as well as the configuration of poetry as a characteristic genre in comparison to the other literary work, and the role that critics and history played in the conformation of the canon of the '27 movement. Finally, it is concluded that women were not part of the modernization attempts in Spain at the beginning of the 20th century for different reasons: relegation of them to the domestic sphere, the high representation of men in the Group of '27, the significant role of anthologies and magazines in shaping the canon, and the repression caused by the dictatorship of the Franco regime.

“‘The Spectre of Marburg’ wanders around the Operative Aesthetics. Luis Juan Guerrero, ‘Evolutive’ Reader of Heidegger”. This paper aims to analyse the reading of Martin Heidegger’s thought offered by Luis Juan Guerrero in his Operative Aesthetics. I claim that “The Origin of the Work of Art” plays a central role in the work of the Argentinian philosopher. However, this does not mean that Guerrero is not an original author or that he is a mere commentator of the German philosopher. On the contrary: the Argentinian philosopher offers a productive reading of Heidegger which allows him to build his own and authentic philosophy. By focusing on Heidegger’s essay on art and on the first volume of the Operative Aesthetics, this paper analyses three essential issues: the concept of tool, the world-earth relationship, and the bond between history and truth.

This article analyzes various intellectual practices tied to the use of public and private documents in the practice of history in Argentina over the second half of the nineteenth century. Starting from the "question of limits," this essay analyzes the work of bibliophiles Manuel Ricardo Trelles and Juan Martín Leguizamón, both of whom tried to historically reconstruct the territorial unity of Argentina. it shows how this work lies at the crossroads of antiquarian studies, History, and Natural History.

Introduction: Since the beginning of its republican life, the development of biological sciences in Costa Rica has been strongly influenced by hundreds of foreign naturalists and scientists who have carried out exploration, research, and publication activities in relation to its biodiversity. Objective: To better understand their contributions, in this paper we take an historical tour, with emphasis on the last century and a half, regarding the motivations that attracted these people to Costa Rica, as well as their specific scientific contributions. Methods: Six criteria were followed to address this issue: a) whether they were residents or itinerants; b) if they had a frequent relationship with Costa Rica; c) if they collected specimens; d) the type of publication; and e) whether to implement teaching or institutional management. Results: Therefore, the information is organized into six large sections, structured chronologically as follows: the first inventories of the biodiversity of Costa Rica (1513-1842), the recognition of biological sciences in Costa Rican culture (1839-1848), the insertion of biological sciences in Costa Rican culture (1854-1886), the institutionalization of the biological sciences in Costa Rica (1886-1900), Costa Rica as a mecca for biological explorations (1900-1957), and the training of professionals in biological sciences (1940-2021). Conclusion: This periodization allows us to contextualize the contributions of those naturalists or scientists in time, as well as to better visualize the economic, social and political events and circumstances that conditioned their scientific work.

In this paper, we describe the elements that characterize the teaching of Mathematics in the Ave María Schools, founded and run by Andrés Manjón in Granada between 1889 and 1923. He stood up for a peculiar model of integrated education, based on Christian values, and he also developed his own methodological principles, similar in many ways to those of the emerging École Nouvelle. The selection and analysis of several sources has allowed us to set his teaching of Mathematics within this pedagogical framework and has suggested us the idea that the strategies used by Manjón in order to teach Arithmetic and Geometry could be innovative at that time and, perhaps, valuable from the point of view of contemporary Didactics.

This paper proposes a recentralization of Merleau-Ponty's political thought in order to give account, not only of a local aspect of his philosophy, but rather of a privileged interpretative key to understand the author's work as a whole. In this sense, we will argue in favor of the existence of an intimate relationship between phenomenological reduction and the internal logic of revolutionary processes. According to our reading, this relationship leads to the author's critical thinking of history and being-in-the-world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the pathogenic spirochetes, Leptospira. The disease has a significant impact in several regions of the world; the WHO classifies it as an emerging public health problem due to the epidemic potential that it can have; mainly, because it is related to hydrometeorological conditions. Symptoms include sudden fever, severe headaches, muscle pain, nausea, and chills. Leptospirosis is considered a neglected disease that is associated with populations living in vulnerable conditions in urban and rural environments. Many cases of leptospirosis are related to specific occupations, such as agriculture and animal management. The impact on animal health is reflected in economic losses and risk situations intertwine the humananimal-ecosystem triad. Leptospirosis has been present since ancient times and even today, it is observed that its incidence remains in force. The lack of clinical suspicion its non-specific symptoms, and the limited availability of timely diagnosis among physicians, make it an unknown disease. In this paper, a systematic review of the literature from PubMed, Scielo, Latindex and Google Scholar is presented, and it describes the historical view of the epidemiology of leptospirosis in Yucatan.

The purpose of this paper is to present and base the theoretical-analytical proposal called psychosocial understanding of the configuration of subjectivities, from a complex, relational, socio-historically situated, intersubjective and symbolic epistemological position. In this framework, it is postulated as an alternative to the deterministic and essentialist views that have characterized the theoretical productions in this field. This proposal, which should be considered provisional and open to later revisions, is inspired by the historical-cultural perspective of Fernando González Rey. First, the problematic individual-society relationship and the reductionisms derived from their consideration as antinomic poles are analyzed. In a second moment, some details about the psychosocial understanding of subjectivities are advanced, particularly the power of the concept "configuration" as an epistemic operator. Finally, a conceptual scheme is offered that articulates the proposed analytical dimensions and categories and reflects on the ethical-political projections of this discussion.

El artículo presenta una conferencia dictada por Marta Acevedo el 11 de mayo de 2011 en el coloquio "Cuarenta años de feminismo en México", celebrado en la Casa de las Humanidades de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, en la cual la autora ofrece una revisión histórica del movimiento feminista en México.

This paper argues the origins of research in chemical sciences at the University of Orient, and the first chemical degree course in Cuba. The peculiar origin of the career, as a consequence of the orientation to research towards basic science, promoted by Dr. H. Harry Szmant from whiting the career of Industrial Chemical Engineering, is demonstrated. The creation, purposes and evolution of the Chemical Research Center at the Universidad de Oriente are analized. It is argued that the early decision to organize the Chemistry Conference in 1964, the first on the country, arose from identifying the need to divulgate the results and promote exchange among scientists, It is shown that this event served as platform for the creation of the Cuban Society of Chemistry and the Cuban Journal of Chemistry.

This paper presents a state of the art of the international Digital Humanities landscape with the aim of outlining and highlighting some of its key points within the huge existing bibliography. In doing so, it aspires to act as a guide for humanists who wish to initiate themselves in this research field, and to serve as a continuation and update of previous works by other researchers. To this end, it is divided into two sections: a first one including an approach to the definition of Digital Humanities, its main characteristics, and a presentation of the most relevant organizations and associations encompassing the research community; and a second section containing a brief history of the discipline, which focuses on its main milestones from its origins to the present.

At the end of the 1950s the signifier "community" was not used to designate indigenous political frameworks; however, forty years later it was widely used. This paper focuses on characterizing and situating the emergence of the "indigenous community" as a political subject within the framework of inter-ethnic relations in the northwest of Chubut. We suggest that the "indigenous community" is configured as the signifier of an articulation between local supra-family frameworks and political, economic, demographic and legal transformations that took place since the 1960s and crystallized during the democratic restoration in the 1980s. We appeal to history and ethnohistory, ethnography, and document and newspaper review to support our hypotheses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

On 26 April 1986, one of the most important events in the history of nuclear energy took place: the Chernobyl accident. This historic event marked the decline of the Soviet Union, an environmental agenda and new geopolitics of the world. It has been portrayed in literature, film, photo-reportage and documentary, among others. This paper seeks to analyse and contrast the HBO series Chernobyl (2019) and Svetalna Alexievich's Voices from Chernobyl (1997), specifically the relationship between reality and literary and filmic reconstruction. For this purpose, we use a descriptive-argumentative logic and a visual analysis with a mixed methodology. The analysis reveals a conflictive relationship between the two works, since the testimonies recorded in the book are easily recognisable in the series, although the latter has never specified that they are based on the book. Among the conclusions, the narrative structure carrying ideology (which seeks to strengthen a collective imaginary over the commonly accepted biases about the Soviet Union and its model of socialism), carried out with remarkable art direction, stands out. Finally, the series comes at a time of widespread debate in civil society about the use of nuclear energy, just as the end of the current model of fossil fuel-based energy generation for society and heavy industry approaches.

This paper presents the results of a comparative study that seeks to identify conceptions of the importance of four types of formal content in history teaching (periods of history, cross-cutting themes in history, history of places, and national historical processes) among a group of Colombian (M = 764) and Spanish (N = 648) students in the last year of compulsory education in the cities of Bogotá and Murcia, respectively. A descriptive approach was followed based on a closed-ended questionnaire relating to historical consciousness, with item responses measured on a Likert scale. The results support the idea that the interest shown by students in the formal content proposed is an indicator that calls for a critical review of the structure and organization of history curricula in the two contexts studied.

This paper deals with El samurái de la Graflex, by Daniel Salinas Basave. The analysis focuses on the representation of a historical character of Japanese origin: Kingo Nonaka, whose figure represents the irruption of a culture that contrasts with the attitudes and ideosyncrasy of revolutionary Mexico. Non-aka concentrates elements that form the image of a Japan in transition towards modernity. Between meditation as a method for diving and fluency with a camera, Salinas Basave follows Nonaka in his wanderings and allows the reader to appreciate details of the history of the first half of the twentieth century from a perspective "alien" to the Mexican one, while building a space for reflection on writing and memory.

The paper discusses the so far unnoticed relation between Miguel de Cervantes' Don Quixote and the life and works of Spanish novelist Francisco Umbral. In spite of having written numerous texts on canonical Spanish authors, Umbral actually paid limited attention to Cervantes. The purpose of the paper is to establish the few yet significant affinities that Umbral expressed towards Cervantes and the main character of his novel. In order to demonstrate this complex link, the paper compares the character of Alonso Quijano to Umbral as a public figure himself. In both cases, there is a constant negotiation between fact and fiction, which leads us to problematize, according to Ian Watt, the concept of "myth" as a paradigm of modern individualism. The second part of the paper examines the metaphors of history that Umbral discovers throughout his reading of Don Quixote. Finally, the third section reflects on the similarities between Quijano and Umbral as both heroes and polemicists. Conclusions show that Umbral's interpretation is symptomatic of a shared perspective of Miguel de Cervantes' novel among late 20th century Spanish writers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to analyze the technical and social dynamics of publishing the magazine El Heraldo Seráfico, which, after August 1915, was totally undertaken in a Capuchin workshop. Following the model proposed by historian Robert Darnton, this paper seeks to answer the following research questions: What motivated the foundation of this typographic workshop? What kind of technology existed therein? What were its main expenditures? What was the editorial hierarchy at the workshop? We conclude that the Capuchins reproduced in Costa Rica an editorial strategy previously and successfully developed in Catalonia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper describes recentfindings on indigenous navigation in northern Colombia. Using the notion of "indigenous navigation" does not discriminate between pre-Columbian and historical times. This notion is very useful to see continuities in material culture. Since this is an ongoing research, historical, ethnographic and, to a lesser extent, archaeological sources are being used to understand the general elements of indigenous navigation in this part of the world.

The aim of this paper is focused on the interrelationships between Working Memory (WM) executive processes and fluid intelligence with reading comprehension, and their common ability to predict academic achievement in History. Twenty six secondary school students participated in this study. The results indicate that cognitive variables correlate with each other and with academic performance. The regression analysis showed that reading comprehension constitutes the most important higher-order cognitive ability that best predicts academic performance in this curricular subject. Likewise, the study reveals the utility of WM measures in educational environments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The creation of the COP (Spanish College of Psychologists) was of enormous significance in establishing the identity of psychology in Spain. The organization, aimed at organizing and representing the profession, has not stopped growing, despite the serious internal and external issues it has had. This article presents a legislative and documentary review, particularly based on its representative publication, Papeles del Psicólogo/Psychologist Papers. We analyze the second stage of the COP, that of professionalization, decentralization, and reorganization as the Spanish Psychological Association, taking into account its role in the internal and international projection of the discipline as a whole.

This paper intends to analyze the role played by ideology in regard to the historical implementation of human rights, questioning whether this implementation has fulfilled an eminently ideological function. The reflection will pass through the vision of two scholars who have held one of the most interesting contemporary philosophical discussions: Louis Althusser and Michel Foucault. At first, the Althusserian theory of ideology will be outlined, in order to defend that human rights have operated as an "ideological apparatus", questioning the individual from an immanently capitalist context. Then, we will verify that Michel Foucault was very critical of the Althusserian approaches. The notion of a transcendental subject will be crucial in such criticism, since in the Foucaultian perspective there are never subjects that are constituted prior to effective dynamics of power. In Foucaultian analysis, ideology will no longer occupy an essential place. The contributions of Slavoj Žižek will also be, by the way, decisive throughout this discussion. Finally, some critical reflections will be drawn to think about the emancipatory possibility of human rights in the contemporary world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

"There is no such Revival. Around the Philosophical Disquisitions on Alienation in the late Twentieth Century". The following paper proposes to give arguments to relativize the extensive account that the concept of alienation lost theoretical attention in the field of philosophy during the eighties of the last century, and that a revival of the study of the concept occurred in the nineties. The conclusion is that there was no such loss of attention, but that furthermore, the presumed premises in the discussion concerning alienation from the nineties up to the present were delineated during the eighties. This conclusion has two supporters: the type of approach regarding alienation carried out by analytical Marxism and the philosophical incursions into the concept in the context of North American sociology. Based on this, the text offers a systematization of the history of the philosophical study of the concept in two sections or stages. And it concerns itself with two -and not three- stages because, for what was argued, philosophy did not stop talking about alienation in the eighties, although it did so to a much lesser extent than before (specifically, during the sixties and seventies, considered the boom in the philosophical treatment of alienation).

This paper presents a contextualization of the history of ska music in Costa Rica, which has a narrow link with the "third wave of ska" at a worldwide level and the development of other music genres in the decade of the 90's in the country. During this period the participation of groups with young people from the neighborhoods from the south of San José Downtown and other parts from the Great Metropolitan Area it's a big highlight. In a sense of discussion, the researchers show a series of annotations that try to find guidance to study of ska music in the country, from its historical context to its importance at a social level.

This article is based on a fieldwork carried out in the lands of a former rural property in Northeastern Brazil. I consider the history of this property as told by its old inhabitants, who still live there. I intend to demonstrate that the content as well as the social dynamics of their narrations leave out the experiences and the accounts of women. Also, the categories of social sciences that I take to the fieldwork are predominantly associated with masculine experiences. In this paper I explore the marginalized narratives that fall outside the history of this place. In these, specific gender experiences emerge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The creation of the Spanish Psychological Association (Spanish acronym, COP) was of enormous significance in the establishing of psychology in Spain, and in the creation of its identity. Since the publication of the 1980 Law of Creation [of the COP], this organization--aimed at regulating and representing the psychology profession--has not stopped growing, despite the serious internal and external issues it has had. The Spanish Psychological Association has gone through different stages over the past 40 years, which reflect and help us to characterize the short history of Spanish psychology, in particular the history of its delimitation with respect to other professions. This article presents an extensive legislative and documentary review, particularly based on its representative publication, Papeles del Psicólogo/Psychologist Papers. We analyze the complicated early years, up to 1993, under the direction of Carlos Camarero and Adolfo Hernández, a phase marked by the internal configuration of the organization, a serious challenge for the profession, and the fight to approve the master's degree.

Since their discovery, the non-neuronal cells of the nervous system have been called glia, a word of Greek origin that means union or glue, because it was believed that their function was to form a kind of putty, in which neurons are immersed. Thereafter, new cell types discovered by new staining techniques, were also classified as glia, which to this day are still considered as binding cells or glue of nerve tissue. The objective of this paper is to question the inappropriate use of the term glia and to propose a new term to designate non-neuronal cells. Despite the enormous knowledge that is currently available of these cells and the great variety of functions they perform to maintain the proper functioning of neurons and nerve circuits, they still retain the name of glia, an inappropriate name that blurs the true role they play. Therefore, the term "synneuronas" is proposed, from the Greek prefix syn which means with or together with, what would suggest that they are cells that present structural and functional proximity with to neurons.

During the colonial times, the Northeastern Venezuela region was featured by the contrast between different ethnic and cultural groups. The reconstruction of these contrasts has required the projection of the theoretical bases of the ethnographic method towards scopes which imply both othernesses in time and in space. This paper illustrates how this method, more than a technique of data collection, is itself a theoretical look that allows the relativization of the analyst's own culture and the approach towards world views that diverge with the observer's point of view. In the first section, the relevance of the ethnographic looks for critiquing the analyst's culture of reference, inside the historical study of the multicultural frontiers, is argued. In the second section, the application of this perspective on the Noreastern Venezuela's frontiers, during the colonial times, is illustrated. In this main section, the focus is on the importance of this look as a resource of cultural self-critique; the approach of other ways of cultural irreflexivities; and the recognition of different ways of social complexity. Finally, this papers opens the reflection around the analytic limits of the separation between History and Anthropology, doubt their potential ethnocentric biases in the study of the past's cultural differences.

This paper aims to describe the historical evolution of the cooperation between the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (COMECON) and Mexico following the signing of their cooperation agreement in August 1975, which remained in effect until COMECON'S demise in 1991. To this end, a brief analysis is made of the antecedents of this international body, which was created within the so-called socialist bloc, and a review is conducted of the body's conception of international cooperation. After covering the historical context behind the mentioned agreement's negotiation, its legal framework, context and scope are reviewed. This paper thereby seeks to contribute to the historical memory of cooperation policy and its international regime, with particular reference to COMECON and Mexico in the period known as the Cold War.

This paper seeks to answer the question what have been the main contributions of international political economy (ipe) to the historical evolution of the intellectual field of International Relations (ir) in Argentina. This inquiry is embedded within a broader question about the process of the constitution of the ir field as an autonomous academic discipline in Argentina. In order to do so, I analyze the contributions made by ipe, especially Latin American structuralism and developmentalism, as spaces of theoretical and conceptual production from which part of the thinking about the international reality has been built. The main objective of the paper revolves around reconstructing the ipe agenda and its contribution to the development of Argentine ir through the observation and analysis of the main authors and concepts, the institutions that have served as spaces of knowledge production, and finally the academic journals that have acted as platforms for the dissemination of themes and ideas.

In this paper we analyze the basic notions of Reinhart Koselleck's conceptual history, with regard to which he claims that conceptual order permits the constitution of semantic fields that obtain their content from the horizons of expectations and experience in which they are embedded. However, this relation is troublesome, for Koselleck does not explore the ideological grounding of the extralinguistic sphere that determines conceptual order, showing thusly an aspect that affects conceptual history's composition as a discipline that does not question its own foundations. We therefore claim that the notion of semantic control exerted by ideologies, which determine the primacy of specific conceptual meanings over other conceptual contents, allows this issue to be clarified and solved.

This paper aims to analyze how the fanbase of a football team is built in a complex process which allows the study of the motivations enthused by this sport in our subjects. In order to answer our working question -What is the process to build a contemporary football fanbase for the University of Guadalajara's team, the Leones Negros?-, this study was conducted using qualitative methodology, interviews with fans, and hemerographic consultation. The team Leones Negros was chosen due to its symbolic value -a relevant source for historic memory among the city's people. Among the findings, the institutional mediation that results in the communication of emotions rooted in the subjects' biography when conforming their identity stands out. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main objective of this paper seeks to argue that the Popular Unity represents an important progress regarding the Mapuche people, by incorporating it into its political program; by furthering the Agrarian Reform which increased the amount of land given to the Mapuche; and by promoting the participation of the Mapuche in the elaboration of Indigenous policies. However, it did have a peasant class bias and also an assimilation component, its extreme institutionalism, perhaps unintentionally, attempted against mapuche's interests. At the end, it could not transform the structural relationship of domination of the Mapuche by the Chilean State. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a review of the many dictionaries of psychology published in Latin America between 1916 and 2000. Information was retrieved from publishing house catalogs, databases, archives and libraries, and academic curricula, as well as through consultations with specialists in the history of psychology. The article mainly highlights those works that have become widely disseminated in the region. Within this framework, it foregrounds works produced by local authors, as well as foreign works translated into Spanish and Portuguese. The paper also makes reference to various thematic dictionaries, such as those of social psychology and psychoanalysis. Overall, it is argued that the widest dissemination of dictionaries in Latin America took place after the mid-twentieth century, when universities introduced psychology majors and an audience of psychology specialists had emerged.

This article analyzes the connection of the modern writing of history with the domination of the conqueror, the sovereignty imposed by war and the concealment of this connection. At the same time, this paper postulates that the shift of other forms of relation with time towards «culture» constitutes the double episteme of this original formula of domination. The test is structured in four parts: 1. A study of the relationship between writing and conquest; 2. A work on the link between the writing of history and the theory of sovereignty, between the writing of history and colonialism; 3. A study of the procedures that relegated in culture the non-linear forms of relationship with time; 4. An approach of the mechanisms of historicism which prevent the thought of anachronism, asynchrony or repetition as subordinate historical logics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: the use of specific rules to correctly identify ingredients used in cosmetics was essential for their control. This paper analyses the complex process to adapt the INCI terminology between the 1960s and the 1990s. Method: analysis of the legislation published in Spain on the control of cosmetic products between the 1940s and the 1990s, focusing on cosmetic's registers and terminologies and nomenclatures used to identify their ingredients. Printed Primary sources, and periodical press have also been consulted. Primary sources have been discussed and contextualized with the help of more recent history of science publications. Results and Conclusions: The adoption of precise cosmetic nomenclature or terminology was required by health authorities registering these products, as well as for the labelling to inform consumer. The sanitary regulation of cosmetic products was very lax until the development of this industry and its market in Spain in the 1960s. The consolidation of the dermopharmaceutical sector occurred in the 1970s, in part due to the efforts of various pharmaceutical sectors. The gradual introduction of international cosmetic nomenclatures culminated in the 1990s with the official introduction of the INCI terminology in Spain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the emergence of smes in Costa Rica from an economic-historical perspective, during the years of 1950-2018. This periodization corresponds to the political structure of each period, according to the business development and the context to be studied during the import substitution development models (1948-1979) and the economic liberation (1982-2018). From the study, it is highlighted that, although at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century the number of smes increases, they face greater business challenges, because the State's economic policy is more inclined to globalized markets, aspects in which the previous enterprises do not have competitive advantages.

In the last decades, it has been revealed that semantic categories are flexible and that they evolve constantly. The aim of this paper is to explore how the polisemy of the verb llevar is structured. For this purpose, our study is based on the parameters of the diachronic prototype semantics proposed by Geeraerts (1997), who place the keys to explain the configuration of lexical polisemy in the diachrony. Therefore, we have carried out a historical study of the verb llevar thanks to the analysis of a corpus taken from the CORDE. The results are analysed, on one hand, from a quantitative perspective, in order to show the age and the frequency of each meaning of the verb llevar. On the other hand, from a qualitative perspective, each semantic change that llevar has experienced throughout its history are described on the basis of the examples of our corpus. In order to describe the semantic changes, we will also use other tools from cognitive semantics, such us the image schema theory and the conceptual metaphor theory. All this leads to demonstrate that the current polisemy of llevar is the result of a historical process of semasiological expansion from one central or prototypical meaning [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

On the one hand, this paper shows how Hannah Arendt's "tone", far from being "flippant" or "mocking" -as Scholem suggested in a letter to her--creates a necessary perturbation in order to discover hypocrisy. That is the way to act responsibly to interpret our present and, then, face and write the history. On the other hand, we remark some philosophical concepts that, when used blurredly from different traditions may create a fixed world and people. With Arendt's mastership we analyze them in order to reenergize them. For this task we use the help of some other philosophers as Fina Birulés or Marina Garcés. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Gender and women's studies have become more visible in recent years. A tangible advance not only in academic terms, but also at a social and educational level. Although these issues have gained notoriety in our country, we note that this does not affect the same intensity in the educational field. At secondary level, these issues enter preferably from the hand of the Comprehensive Sexual Education Law (Law No. 26,150) although this does not happen systematically. We ask ourselves then about the History that is taught not only in high school, but also at University. Within this framework, we promptly inquire into the entry of these issues within the History Teachers Program at the National University of La Plata. In sum, this is a paper that tries to question which historical subjects regain voice in the teaching of university History and at the same time it presents the curriculum as a cultural, historical and gendered device.

Between the slogans and motives that form the discourse of «Propuesta Republicana» (PRO), this article seeks to deepen the understanding of the concept of the «third way» that its leaders have used to define the party identity. The paper deals with characterizing and relating four discourses of third way which, even with different temporalities and political-ideological orientations, resonate in the discourse of PRO. Thus, in addition to presenting the ideas of the third post-ideological way emerging in the 1990s with which the leaders prefer to identify it, the discourse of PRO is put in dialogue with other reflections about the third way, developed in II Postwar: thus, with the program of the «social market economy», with the debate held by a series of argentine catholic-intellectuals about the socio-economic project of «christian democracy» and with the peronist' «third position».

Introduction: The social history of written culture reflects on habits and practices that, from reading and writing, allow us to appropriate texts to build the sense of interpretation communities. Hence, the library of an individual allows understanding their reading habits, their way of imagining nature, their relationship with political and religious power, and their relationship with society. Objective: Interpret Antonio Nariño's reading practices through the books of medicine in his library to approach the way he developed a presumably effective vaccine against smallpox. Materials and methods: A bibliographic description of the documents "Confiscation and seizure of property of Nariño" and "Papers, books and property of Sebastián López Ruiz held by Nariño" of the Nariño Archive of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia was made. Results: Of 39 books on medicine (seven treatises on surgery, 12 compendiums of practical exercise, 11 disease manuals, seven compendiums of medical topics and two books on childbirths) three books were treated with smallpox. Conclusion: The medical-scientific exercise of Antonio Nariño demonstrated his reading and writing practices, the representations of his skills and competences, and the recognition of his cultural and social forms and attitudes, which promoted a notion of public health. The study of the self-taught Nariño doctor allowed relating the techniques of scientific production -development of the vaccine- and the cultural materiality -state of art- from the medical texts of his library.
