Representation of Peronist unionism in Argentinian sociologist Roberto Carri’s works: From the “vandorismo” to the guerilla “Montoneros” (1967-1974)
2019
En este trabajo abordamos un aspecto de la trayectoria intelectual del sociólogo argentino Roberto Carri, referido a sus estudios sobre el sindicalismo argentino, específicamente el sindicalismo peronista después de 1955. Para hacerlo tomamos en cuenta tres textos claves que le dedicó al tema, en tres momentos particulares de su trayectoria intelectual y militante: el libro Sindicatos y Poder en la Argentina (1967), el artículo ?Sindicalismo de participación, sindicalismo de liberación? (1971), y el texto ?Vandorismo. La política del imperialismo para los trabajadores peronistas? (1974). En estos textos analizaremos cinco elementos: la lectura de la relación entre el peronismo y los sindica…
“Dinner by the River” and “Driving to the Airport”: Andrew Taylor’s Polish Ash Poems and Jacques Derrida’s Cinder
2019
Andrew Taylor (b. 1940), one of the most eminent living Australian poets, has had a lasting relationship with Poland and Opole in particular. As a result of one of his several visits to Opole, he wrote two poems, “Dinner by the River,” which was later included in the volume edited by Peter Rose The Best Australian Poems 2008 (Melbourne: Black Inc., 2008), and “Driving to the Airport,” which appeared in The Unhaunting (London: Salt, 2009). Both poems were originally included in the volume Australia: Identity, Memory and Destiny (ed. Wolny and Nicieja, Opole 2008). The aim of this paper is, therefore, to explore the image of Poland, and the Odra River in particular, the Australian poet has cr…
State Control over Religious Peacebuilding
2016
Steen-Johnsen argues that it is necessary not only to consider the political strategies of a state related to the civil sphere, but also to study the enactment of these strategies in state–religious relationships. By drawing upon empirical data from Ethiopia, Steen-Johnsen shows how the political authorities in this context exert subtle and more open strategies to control political mobilization when religious actors engage in peacebuilding. This underscores the possible double nature of political strategies, as some forms of control are open and others more subtle. Steen-Johnsen outlines how the religious actors adapt to these forms of state control and develop an understanding of their own…
La problemática textual del comentario de Galeno al tratado hipocrático Sobre los humores
2014
The commentary to the Hippocratic treatise De humoribus, which was accepted as an authentic Galenic work till recent times, uses to be nowadays assigned to a mid-XVIth. century author of false ancient manuscripts, the Greek Andreas Darmarios. In spite of this, the text presents several kinds of problems that suggest a careful revisiting of the question. This article presents some of such problems and looks for a different explanation by means of the interaction of the languages involved in the transmission of the text.
Las Tetralogías de Antifonte: un estudio lingüístico sobre la primera prosa ática
1987
El análisis lingüístico de las 'tetralogías' de antifonte recoge en ellas un alto numero de innovaciones de todo tipo. El presente estudio señala a un tiempo la base ática de la lengua utilizada y su intima relación con otros sistemas, literarios o no, y en particular los jonios. Así es como ha de entenderse la naturaleza de estos discursos desde el punto de vista del historiador de la lengua.
Multimodale Analyse von Interaktion im fremdsprachlichen Klassenzimmer. Multimodal analysis of interaction in a foreign language class.
2016
The article offers a contribution to the interaction research in the foreign language teaching and learning. It starts with an overview of various research approaches to the foreign language teaching and learning, from the 60s to the present days. A multimodal analysis of an excerpt of videorecorded classroom interaction is then provided. The analysis is focused on several aspects of classroom participation and teaching sequences. Some implications of the present research for teachers' training are finally provided.
The effectiveness of office information systems: a social action perspective
1991
. The purpose of this paper is to show that a number of basic issues have not been adequately addressed in existing office information systems research. Prominent among these are the nature and role of offices, the goals of office information systems development, and the nature of its organizational and managerial consequences. It is proposed that office information systems should be analysed as social action systems the behaviour of which is strongly affected by socially determined forces and constraints such as the behaviour-channelling influences of authority, norms, customs, habits and precedence. Four types of social action are discussed: instrumental, strategic, communicative and disc…
A Control Problem for a Class of Epidemics
2003
We consider a mathematical model corresponding to a class of epidemics. Controlling an epidemic is usually difficult. To implement the control policy suggested by a mathematical analysis in the real world is never easy. However, suggestions can be given to the public authorities about the effects of a particular control policy, and in this sense analysis and simulation by mathematical models becomes a powerful tool.
Elements of Language Theory
1988
In this chapter we shall review the mathematical and computer science background on which the presentation in this book is based. We shall discuss the elements of discrete mathematics and formal language theory, emphasizing those issues that are of importance from the point of view of context-free parsing. We shall devote a considerable part of this chapter to matters such as random access machines and computational complexity. These will be relevant later when we derive efficient algorithms for parsing theoretic problems or prove lower bounds for the complexity of these problems. In this chapter we shall also discuss a general class of formal language descriptors called “rewriting systems”…
Hands-on or Video-based Learning with ANTicipation? A Comparative Approach to Identifying Student Motivation and Learning Enjoyment During a Lesson a…
2015
The observation of living animals in school laboratories provides authentic views of biological research. Various studies stress the importance of primary experiences in biology classes. However, educational films may serve as an alternative in some cases. The aim of this study was to investigate student motivation before and after treatments, including (1) an educational film, (2) a hands-on activity with living animals accompanied by an educational film and (3) a hands-on activity with living animals. We investigated the influence of teaching method, gender and class level on student motivation and learning enjoyment. In all treatments, Temnothorax ants were addressed, which can be easily…
