Objective/Context: The article seeks to analyze the problematic and paradoxical normative-administrative translation of the paradigm of human rights in Argentina's current migration policies. The study of this case is of particular interest, on the one hand, because Argentina has been and is the leading Mercosur country receiving migrations in the past decades, and, on the other hand, because its migratory management model, inaugurated in 2004 with the sanction of the Law of Migrations 25871, even if it finds itself based around the human rights approach, coexists with an emphasized tendency towards securitization and control. Methodology: The investigation that supports this article is qualitative: the main ideas and conclusions have been extracted from the study of laws, decrees, regulations, reports, and resolutions emitted by different national and international public agencies, also from the comparison and contrast with secondary bibliography. Conclusions: The advancement of the securitarian approach on migration, centered more on control than regulation, together with the lack of normative and administrative adaptation of the different state agencies in the guaranty of rights recognized as universal, explain the ineffectiveness of the human rights paradigm in critical areas such as being the documentary regularization policy and the access to universal rights. Originality: The article seeks to deepen the analysis of Argentina's migration policies, focusing on the different supra, intra, and counter-state levels involved in its implementation.

In this paper I introduce objections to Federico Raffo Quintana's paper "The Notion of 'Space' in the Young Leibniz Writings". Against Raffo, who considers that the Leibnizian conception of space as the universal place of things is an idea that Leibniz early abandons --Raffo says in 1671--, I will try to show that such a conception goes beyond the Leibniz's young writings and that it is because of some conceptual confusions in Raffo's survey that he, instead of seeing a harmonic continuity in Leibniz's theory of space, sees a rupture in its historical evolution, associating to it some disputable or spurious dichotomies.

After its institutionalisation during the early 1970s through the creation of the first faculties of Communication Sciences, Spanish communication research consolidates as a disciplinary field in the 1990s. During this period, the increasing number of universities degrees on communication studies led to an exponential growth of the academic community and, so, of the scientific production in the field. The enormous efforts of meta-research carried out in the last decade, specially focused on the study of peer-reviewed journals, and to lesser extent of PhD theses, have allowed the reconstruction of some relevant aspects of the current communication research in Spain. Nevertheless, these studies have not considered sufficiently those elements which would allow to identify the general epistemological orientation followed by the scientific activity in the field of communication. This paper intends to contribute to this research line. For this purpose, a content analysis has been applied to a sample of 1098 papers published between 1990 and 2014 by six major peer-reviewed communication journals, in order to observe the evolution of the objects of study and the methodological procedures in Spanish communication research during this period. The results show a progressive diversification of the objects of study, the pre-eminence of the studies on media content, a growing neglect of the institutional dimension of the media system (companies, professionals, markets, public policies, etc.), a decreasing interest on theoretical research, a gradual improvement of the methodological standards of empirical research, and a growing dominance of quantitative research, specially by means of content analysis applied to media documents (news, advertisements, television series, etc.). The observed trends are put for discussion considering the consequences that could have be generated on Spanish communication research by the changes of the media system (the growth of the communication sector, the advent of digitalization, etc.) and by the updated institutional context (the autonomy of university degrees in communication studies, the implementation of the Academia teaching acreditation programme) on which scientific activity has deveolped over the past 25 years.

El objetivo es analizar cómo el texto fundacional y el reglamento de la Biblioteca Pública de Buenos Aires interpelaron a los usuarios y cuál fue la reacción del público una vez que la institución abrió sus puertas. Por lo tanto, se rastreó la tensión entre un paradigma bibliotecológico que apelaba al fomento del saber y al bien público como objetivo institucional y las demandas de los usuarios por el horario restringido de la biblioteca. Se analizaron desde la historia de la cultura impresa las representaciones de la lectura y de la sociabilidad letrada al leer la correspondencia entre Bernardino Rivadavia y Luis José de Chorroarín, el reglamento de la Biblioteca Pública de Buenos Aires y los periódicos porteños. Se concluyó que la negativa en ampliar el horario de atención al público conspiró con el acceso a la biblioteca de los empleados. The objective is to analyze how the founding text and regulations of the Buenos Aires Public Library challenged users and what the public's reaction was once the institution opened its doors. Therefore, we traced the tension between a library paradigm that appealed to the promotion of knowledge and the public good as an institutional objective and the demands of users due to the restricted library hours. From the history of printed culture, the representations of reading and the sociability of the reader when reading the correspondence between Bernardino Rivadavia and Luis José de Chorroarín, the regulations of the Buenos Aires Public Library and the Buenos Aires newspapers were analyzed. It was concluded that the refusal to extend the opening hours to the public conspired with the access to the library of the employees. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article is an analysis of the historiography of the battle of Cerro Gordo. It is intended to see the generalities of the story, as well as the authors who wrote the subject, their enunciation horizons, the importance they give it, and which ones are available to know the battle. At the end of this historiographic balance, it is established that some current works have reused an almost invariable narrative form, having as their origin a single story. Therefore, a methodological tool provided by historian John Keegan is proposed, called: "the piece of battle". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article analyzes a series of extralegal procedures implemented by Guatemalans to acquire Mexican personal identification documents. The research focuses on the experiences of descendants of families who took refuge in Mexico during the 1980s and 1990s and returned to Guatemala between 1994 and 1996. These young people, born in Guatemala after their parents returned to their country of origin, employed the practice of buying Mexican birth certificates which were later used to enter Mexico legally. The fieldwork was carried out in two Guatemalan villages, as well as two Mexican ones, located in Cancun and Playa del Carmen. The main argument is that for them Mexican identification documents become a singular force that confers recognition and offers them the possibility to be incorporated into governmental logic which grants material benefits. Such forms of political imagination are related to the experiences of multiple documentation accumulated by older generations during their refuge period and are now encouraged by the Mexican State's new border security strategy.

Introduction: The analysis of the co-authorship network (ARC) is an important tool to evaluate the capacity of the institutional links. Objective: To characterize the collaboration trends of the Peruvian National Health Institute (NIH) using ARC in the period 1998-2018. Methods: Original publications (OP) between 1998 and 2018 with at least one author from Peruvian NIH were recovered from Scopus and Scielo Peru databases. The ARC was performed in Gephi® version 0.9.2. The metrics were: number of nodes, number of edges, centrality degree, weighted degree, intermediation degree, proximity, modularity, and network density. The analysis for authors and institutions were performed in two study periods: 1998-2008 and 2009-2018. Results: The collaboration network expanded in the last period, the main institutions in the network were the Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia, the Center for Disease Prevention and Control of the United States and the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos. Conclusions: The collaboration network of the Peruvian NIH reveals the increase of authors in OP. NIH requires to strengthen the density of its network and to have stronger links with more international and sub-national institutions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article is written from the "History with photography", instead of "History with photography" and read postcards as memory devices. It centers these memories on the constellation of singers of "cuplés" whose performativity generated endless postcards that gave rise to other new performative events in the houses, streets and studios of painters and writers. We talk about the singers, about them, the writers and painters, and about the final "postal women". [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

through a case study, this text shows the relevance of material study of marks of paper in the field of the social history of justice during the Spanish Monarchy. It examines the complementarity between a judicial case about the alteration of notarial records of Santiago de Chile in 1800, and the material analysis of several public writings between 1684 and 1715, to highlight the social value and meaning of these documents.

Social media play a leading role in the daily lives of young people, especially such media where images are central. There has been a significant increase in the production and circulation of multimodal digital texts in current times. This article addresses the potential and complexity of digital production on Instagram from the perspective of learning and literacies. Based on ethnographic research in a public secondary school in Santiago, Chile, this paper presents the digital practices of eight young people. The materials analyzed come from interviews with young people, teachers, and mothers, in situ and digital ethnographic observations, and visual pieces produced by young people. The findings show different learning, the level of complexity of which is associated with the intensity of text production and the orientation and motivation. Vernacular literacies are related to practical knowledge, where English, hashtags, images, and humor are significant in digital production. The findings also show some cases of production that transcend personal use with an expressive function, guided by strategic orientations of communication, politics, and education. For the latter, the interaction of academic and vernacular literacies is crucial. Finally, the paper identifies certain gaps in digital literacy, where the school could contribute.

Europe has introduced an institutional strategy in the University to move from an educational model, focused on teaching, to another, focused on learning, applying the necessity of evaluation in order to improve academic performance. This technique analyzes the evaluation system's effect, based on the development of different activities, which stand out a teaching innovation technique --named one minute paper-- from the academic result trough probit and tobit models. Results show that students satisfactorily participate in all the activities, which have a positive influence on the probability to pass the subject on the first official summon and on the obtain grade. One minute paper demonstrated its utility in order to improve the academic results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is carried out in a workers group of logging, wood and paper industry, which is compared with the whole of the labor market. We select 14 quantitative variables of job-related features. For this purpose, we use data Quality of Labor Life Survey (ECVT) by the Spanish Ministry of Employment and Social Security. The first objective is to find out which variables and groups of variables (or factors) affect job satisfaction in logging, wood and paper industry, comparing these results with the national set. Our methodologies are principal component analysis, cluster analysis, and stepwise multiple regression. The second objective is to review similar studies in other countries in order to find some common pattern. The analysis in both groups (logging, wood, and paper on the one hand, and the Spanish national set on the other) allows us to find whether determinants are the same or different according to activity. So, in both cases, a wage is one of the last factors that explain labor satisfaction, whereas motivation and personal development are in the top position. It is not possible to propose a general and valid theory in all areas from studies in other countries so that if the context is different, the determinants that affect job satisfaction are also different.

One of the survivors in Spain of the free distribution press is the specialized publication Diario Médico, which has been disseminating health issues among professionals of the National Health System for 25 years. We did an exploratory-descriptive study about its origins and current situation, paying attention to its labour in paper, through the printed product, and in Red, through diariomedico.com. The techniques are the interview with its deputy director and the analysis of its products. The mixed format defines Diario Médico: it maintains its commitment to offer information on paper, despite having reduced the periodicity from daily to weekly; leads its paper readers to Orbyt, the digital press kiosk of the promoter group, Unidad Editorial, where it offers seven pages a day in pdf format with information for subscribers, and on the Web, with an edition that opens to the participation of the user. The informative tone of its contents and its usefulness for society, together with the growing interest of the non-specialized public in medicine and health, lead to Diario Médico, in our opinion, to have a double objective public: society in general and professionals of the System in particular.

This article presents the results of a research in the classroom in the subject Programming I, initial course of computer programming in Systems Engineering and Computing. The research pretend to approach the impact of two methodologies of problem solving based on programming logic and the use of programming languages for its implementation. We use a qualitative perspective, as far as the students' performance as programmers, and quantitative, in what corresponds to the qualification of the written evaluations. It has been used to structure two parallel courses, using different methodologies for solving programming problems. With the first group, a methodology was implemented based on the conceptual resolution of these problems using solutions on paper and with the other one we use resolution of problems based on the intensive use of the computer. The results show a very interesting trend that allows us to make some important inferences regarding the promotion of logic and the approach of solutions in the paper against the use of the computer and the deepening in the purely technological knowledge. Conclusions leave open doors of the discussion about the different and possible ways that the students of programming to appropriate, assimilate and apply the own knowledge of this area.

A biosimilar (BS) is a biological drug that contains a version of the active substance of an already authorized original biological product. The BSs are marketed after patent period of the original drug has ended and once it has been demonstrated that the differences regarding the innovative medicine have no relevant effect on its safety or clinical efficacy. The Spanish Society of Rheumatology, in line with the European Medicines Agency, considers that because of its nature and complexity of production, a BS cannot be considered to be the same as a generic drug. The Spanish Society of Rheumatology expresses an unequivocal commitment to the sustainability of the health system in our country and our steadfast alignment with all measures designed to ensure continuity, without reducing the quality of care. Therefore, we believe that the advent of BSs will likely facilitate access of patients with rheumatic diseases to the biological drugs. This article reviews the European Medicines Agency requirements for authorization, the Spanish legal framework and controversies on BS and presents the position paper of the Spanish Society of Rheumatology on these drugs.

The process of convergence with the European Higher Education Area led to the publication of the White Paper on the qualification of the Degree in Psychology (ANECA, 2005) in which an extensive analysis was carried out of the situation of university studies in psychology in Spain and guidelines were produced to adapt the degree to the European requirements. Ten years later, the present paper aims to analyze the implementation rate of the guidelines included in the White Paper, as well as to develop prognostic models based on the trends observed using time series analyses. The results show a constant and progressive increase in the educational training offered, the number of new faculties, and other closely associated indicators related to this growth. Different explanations and reasons for these results are discussed. We also reflect on the detrimental impact on job security amongst psychologists, the high unemployment rates, and the negative consequences for a sustainable model of professional development.

In recent years, experts from around the world have warned that printed newspapers may disappear in the medium term. In some cases, even specific dates were given. The proliferation of digital media and the paradigma shift in our society are usually mentioned among the causes of this disappearance, especially when it comes to the media. Focusing particularly on theSpanish case, this paper offers an alternative vision, providing evidence that it's not the first time a possible disappearance of printed newspapers is being discussed, that the Internet isn't the main reason for the crisis hitting the sector, and that newspapers aren't facing the worst crisis in thirty years. Although both printed newspapers and printed books could disappear in a still distant future, no concluding evidence points in that direction and this kind of statements are not to be recommended.

This article presents the papers which, before Medellin, and together with the opening discourse of Paul VI, marked the course of the Second Conference and exposed: the reality of the poor and believing people, the listening to their cry, the discernment of the signs of the times, and pastoral options. Medellin was a creative reception of Vatican II for Latin America and signaled the emergence of a poor, missionary and paschal Church. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El bisfenol A (BPA) es un monómero empleado en la fabricación de policarbonato y resinas epoxi por lo cual es fabricado extensivamente a nivel mundial. No obstante, el BPA tiene un aspecto poco deseado ya que diversos estudios lo relacionan con distintas enfermedades especialmente por su efecto como disruptor endocrino. Actualmente el BPA es tema de controversia entre comunidades científicas y agentes gubernamentales, específicamente en relación a su ingesta diaria admisible (IDA). Por otra parte, los tickets de papel térmico son agentes de contaminación en plantas de reciclaje de papel, en consecuencia desde el Laboratorio de Química Industrial (LQI) se empleó la extracción Soxhlet con solventes orgánicos con el fin de eliminar BPA contaminante en muestras de papel térmico usado.

The article analyzes the speech of the Zig-Zag magazine in relation to the city of Arica, as a collaborator in a propaganda policy of Chileanization, in the context in which Peru and Chile must prepare for the Treaty that will resolve the geopolitical and sovereignty conflict over the cities of Tacna and Arica. From this perspective, the research question is: How do the reproduction and dissemination of the Zig-Zag's photographs collaborate, and what lies behind the news regarding the city of Arica between 1910 and 1930 in the construction of the Chileanizing discourse? From this city? In this line the news and photographic images of the Zig-Zag magazine referring to the city of Arica, referred to a systematic violence towards the Peruvian population of the area, focused on the invisibility of the original inhabitants and the negative and derogatory language towards the Peruvians. Granting an exorbitant relevance: to the actions of the Chilean State in the area, to the objectivity and rationality of its political authorities to resolve the conflict with Peru, and to repeatedly expose the Chilean army as the greatest military force prepared in Latin America.
