In 2004, the Uruguayan government announced construction of two cellulose plants on the Uruguay riverbank -- the natural boundary between that country and Argentina -- as part of its forestry development plan to become a major wood and paper player. Investments by Finland's Botnia and Spain's Ence were to exceed 1.5 billion dollars, the largest foreign investment in that country's history. Argentina, together with environmental groups, charged that the plants would contaminate common waters. Route cuts, pier blockages, and strikes soon erupted. In May 2005 a bi-national commission was established to resolve the conflict, but nothing came of it. Instead of agreements, a war of opinions and accusations ensued. Unable to reach an accord, in June 2006 both countries turned to the International Court of Justice in The Hague. On July 13 the Court ruled: "There are not sufficient grounds for a provisional measure to suspend construction of the plants." The case tells a good deal about Mercosur's difficulties to solve disputes among member states. Unless substantial reforms in mechanisms for conflict resolution are adopted, it may be expected that disputes will remain unsolved and that member states will look for suitable responses to negotiation or elsewhere.

The objective of this paper is to assess and improve the impact on reading students' comprehension due to an intervention in two curricular modules, Teorías pedagógicas and Lengua at Teacher's Training of an Instituto de Formación Docente (IFD) in Uruguay. The framework on these studies is based on Academic Literacy, which encompasses the teaching practices needed for reading specialized texts. The method used to quantify changes on reading students' comprehension is a pretest and posttest strategy without control group. Before and after the intervention a reading comprehension test is applied. The results show a statistically significant difference in the mean between the pre and posttest (the difference of 1 and p value equal to 0.003). Therefore, the null hypothesis is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis is accepted which is that the intervention produced change. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The neuter interrogative pronouns el qué and lo qué alternate with qué 'what' in conversational Spanish in certain contexts and types of wh-questions (e.g., – No me lo puedo creer – ¿No te puedes creer qué/el qué/lo qué?). This paper describes geographical, register and social variation in the use of el qué and lo qué and analyses the interpretive and distributional properties of these complex forms. Building on corpus data and speakers' judgements, it is shown that the form el qué is common to all Spanish dialects and is used in all registers and at all social levels, whereas lo qué is only found in Spain, Argentina and Uruguay: in Spain and Argentina, this form belongs to lower class people with little education and speakers in rural areas; in Uruguay, it does not have a social bias and occurs in both formal and informal situations. It is also argued that el qué and lo qué are used to indicate that the target of the question is identifiable in the context of utterance, and it is thus claimed that el and lo in el qué and lo qué are overt definiteness markers.

The present study analyzes fifty years of theological reflection in Uruguay, specifically at the Faculty of Theology of Uruguay "Mons. Mariano Soler" and its predecessor, the Theological Institute of Uruguay. These periodic publications demonstrate the research and production work in the area of theological thought in the country. Over time, different research topics have emerged, addressed from the different specialties of theological knowledge and ecclesiastical sciences in general. The progress of the Theological Institute of Uruguay has contributed to giving more importance to research and being more demanding in publications. The article presents the emergence of academic publications in Uruguay in the 1970s, as part of the Latin American theological movement following the Second Vatican Council. These publications, which include an Annual Book and a series of Notebooks, seek to be theological and pastoral contributions in service to the Church. The text talks about the publications of the Theological Institute of Uruguay and their evolution over the years. Initially, five issues of the magazine "Puntos de Apoyo" were published in 1983 and 1984, addressing specific topics related to theology. Then, for three years, there were no new publications. Starting in 1995, the magazine "Soleriana" began to be published, replacing the Annual Book and being published semi-annually. This new stage coincides with the creation of the degree in theology of evangelization and seeks to promote theological reflection in the service of evangelization in a context of secularization and social challenges. Soleriana magazine presents itself as a resource for the evangelization of Uruguayan culture, promoting interdisciplinary dialogue from theological thought. In 2000, the creation of the Faculty of Theology of Uruguay "Mons. Mariano Soler" is announced and the magazine becomes the faculty's magazine. The article presents a summary of the issues of Soleriana magazine published between 2001 and 2015. The topics addressed in each issue are mentioned, such as hope, the Virgin Mary, religiosity, and the evangelization of culture. It is highlighted that the magazine has experienced a crisis and decline in recent years, with a decrease in the number of issues published. The importance of research and academic production in the theological field is emphasized. Soleriana magazine has gone through different stages over the years. In the first stage, it focused on the history of the Church in Uruguay and had the participation of faculty students. In the second stage, the magazine faced difficulties and stopped having previous sections. In the third stage, the magazine was revitalized and began to be published semi-annually, with new sections and a focus on research. Style guidelines have been introduced and blind peer review has been implemented. The article presents the history of theological production at the Faculty of Theology of Uruguay "Mons. Mariano Soler" through its publications. The importance of Soleriana magazine is highlighted, which has adopted a style manual for article submission and has established formal requirements. The magazine has exclusively relied on research papers from authors, mostly faculty members. Additionally, the creation of its own research lines and the exchange with other academic publications are mentioned. On the other hand, the existence of books edited by the institution is mentioned, mainly by faculty professors. In conclusion, the contribution of these publications to Uruguayan theological production and their objective of contributing to the Church and national culture is highlighted. The article presents the work of the Theological Institute in Uruguay over the past 50 years. Although proposals for liberation theology emerged in the country, the institute did not embrace them.

The article "Presentation" of the magazine "Utopía y Praxis Latinoamericana" addresses the rights of peoples from an intersectional perspective in Latin America. It questions Eurocentrism, patriarchy, racism, and anthropocentrism as oppressions that affect individuals and peoples. The dossier includes research papers from various Latin American countries, such as Panama, Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, and Chile, which address the issues of oppressions from different dimensions. In addition, book reviews are presented on topics such as the rights of transnational companies, the history of education in Argentina, and society during the pandemic. [Extracted from the article]

This paper aims to explore the deep inwardness of the exile in the poems and language of the Uruguayan writer Cristina Peri Rossi. In order to understand the key points of Peri Rossi's poetics, it will be necessary to reconstruct and retrace the historical matrix that generated her departure from the South American country: the harsh repression of civil rights in the early seventies, forced the writer to travel to Barcelona. The linguistic dimension pursued in such works as Descripción de un naufragio, Diáspora (1976), La nave de los locos (1984) and Estado de exilio (2003) builds the pieces of an articulated semantic puzzle that becomes the bearer of one of the most tragic human experiences.

This paper studies the mechanization of agriculture in the rural regions of the Rio de la Plata during the First Globalization (1880-1916). Uruguay and Argentina developed an important growth and diversification of their agricultural production during this period. This growth accompanied the great livestock dynamism that both economies had achieved since the first decades of the 19th century. We analyze the process by dispensing national approaches. A geo-referenced database is constructed at a micro-regional level to identify the location of the main agricultural production areas and to trace their evolution throughout the period. A clustering analysis is also carried out to explore the spatial heterogeneity that characterized the River Plate agriculture and provide elements for its interpretation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we try to analyze some recent and ongoing changes that are taking place in the Uruguayan higher education system. Based on a system historically conditioned by the presence of a single public university, we try to briefly review the changes at this educational level in recent years, hand in hand with different national governments. In a regional scenario of increasing privatization from which Uruguay was apparently on the sidelines at times, we examine the characteristics of some changes that are taking place now and may constitute advances in a certain wave of privatization. We use contributions from the educational field, higher education and public policies and we conclude the text problematizing how novel these changes are and their possible impact given certain national characteristics.

Ten years after the creation of the National System of Response to Climate Change (snrcc for its acronym in Spanish) in Uruguay, this paper examines the perceptions among local actors about the impacts of climate change on the Northeast region of the country (Departments of Rivera, Tacuarembó and Cerro Largo). It also analyzes their visions about policies and mechanisms of climate governance defined at the national level, focusing some aspects such as articulation and participation. This way the paper aims to generate relevant inputs for the discussion about the design of policies for mitigation and adaptation to this phenomenon in the specific territory considered here.

In this paper we analyse the Soca Chapel in Canelones (Uruguay), which was built in 1960. This was the first religious building designed by Antonio Bonet Castellana (1913-89) and the only one he completed. Using data stored in the architect's archive, we have re-drawn the entire work, reconstructing the chapel's ritual path and including as active elements both the adjoining pavilion and the outer walls to create new graphical documentation that provides previously unpublished information. We also discuss another chapel that appears in the Soca files held in the architect's archive. The analysis presented in this paper will provide additional data for anyone interested in better understanding this architectural work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is intended as a contribution to risk and security analysis in organizations dedicated to the execution of measures for the population in conflict with the criminal law. In other words, this paper attempts to advance within a theoretical framework that allows for an analysis of the particularities of risk management in environments of deprivation of liberty, such as prisons. For this purpose, information is taken from the case of the National Institute for Adolescent Social Inclusion (INISA), in Uruguay. This is the only institution in the country dedicated to the management of measures on adolescents who were convicted of a crime. The central objective will be to analyze what different meanings of security coexist in everyday work and how these different perspectives converge in real work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Building on the literature on formal and informal institutions, this paper offers a typology of the role informal institutions play in the efficacy or inefficacy of formal institutions. Particularly, whether and why de jure and de facto independence converge or diverge. We distinguish four roles that informal institutions can play: competing, reinforcing, overlapping, and redundant. To illustrate our typology, we include examples of each role from Latin American countries. In Brazil we show that a norm of professionalism reinforces internal judicial independence, whereas in Mexico a norm of patronage competes with it. In Uruguay we show that a norm of legislative cooperation is redundant with a high level of de jure external judicial independence, whereas in Paraguay a norm of militant subordination overlaps with a low level of it.

Over 5.4 million people have fled Venezuela in the last decade, with 4.6 million arriving in Latin American and Caribbean countries. Most are refugees seeking to settle in another of the region's countries, including Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay. This paper focuses on the Venezuelan diaspora towards these countries and analyses whether these borders should be defined as open or closed, along with the forms of institutional incorporation or exclusion these people have experienced. To do this, it takes a case-by-case approach, reviewing legislation and analysing policy for each country. While Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay are all Mercosur members and signed the common residence agreement, which facilitated the movement of people, Paraguay has not created a special migration category for Venezuelan citizens, and has taken a more restrictive approach.

This paper presents the results of the research on the principle of equality in the jurisprudence of the Supreme Court of Justice of Uruguay developed by a group of professors and students of Constitutional Law at the Universidad Católica del Uruguay. The research analyzed 360 sentences issued by the Uruguayan Supreme Court of Justice in unconstitutionality processes, between the years 2012 and 2021. The study does a particular consideration on issues that are important both on the treatment and on the development of application of equal principle, on the use of legal tools to resolve cases ("triple test" or proportionality principle), also on the invocation and application of the non-discrimination principle, among other current issues. The research shows a favorable development in such matters, and a shortcoming in others, being its attention relevant due to the significance that this principle has for the Rule of Law.
