“UN PROCESO DE TRANSFORMACIÓN INSTITUCIONAL: DESDE EL INSTITUTO DEL PROFESORADO A LA ACTUAL FACULTAD DE HUMANIDADES Y CIENCIAS DE LA UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL DEL LITORAL”

El presente trabajo analiza el contexto y el proceso de transformación y redefinición institucional de la actual Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Universidad Nacional del Litoral. Esta transformación fue el resultado de un complejo proceso de discusión y consenso que se instala básicamente a partir de la primera evaluación externa (19989) y que de modo más general, se enmarca en el Plan de Desarrollo Institucional de la UNL y se comienza a instrumentar a partir de un FOMEC institucional. La Facultad que se analiza está signada por sucesivas transformaciones desde su origen, como Instituto del Profesorado (1953), su paso como Facultad de Formación Docente en Ciencias- siempre formando docentes- hasta hoy como Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias que si bien no abandona su rol como formadora de formadores, fortalece el desarrollo de las disciplinas específicas, nuevas carreras de grado, posgrado, investigación y extensión. En este complejo proceso, la Facultad se constituyó en un ámbito de deliberaciones formales y espontáneas. Su Gobierno articuló modos de consulta y de concertación política y académica siguiendo una metodología de trabajo de taller; determinación de las dimensiones analíticas relevantes y marco normativo delineando una visión institucional

La Cooperación co-étnica como factor facilitador de la dinamización de la Internacionalización en instituciones de Educación Superior

O CONGRESSO DE INTERNACIONALIZAÇÃO DA EDUCAÇÃO SUPERIOR – CIES 2019 é um evento in- ternacional, que reúne professores, pesquisadores e estudantes de graduação e pós-graduação para divulgar a produção científica no campo da Internacionalização do Ensino Superior e fortalecer a cooperação internacional entre diferentes instituições de ensino e grupos de pesquisa no âmbito do MERCOSUL. A iniciativa é fruto de uma parceria entre pesquisadores da Universidade Federal da Integra- ção Latino-Americana (UNILA - Brasil), a Universidad Nacional del Litoral (UNL - Argentina), a Uni- versidad Nacional de Asunción (UNA - Paraguay) e a Universidad de la República (UDeLaR - Uru- guay), que atuam em projetos vinculados ao Setor Educacional do MERCOSUL, no Núcleo de Estudos e Investigações em Educação Superior. O evento será realizado nos dias 4, 5 e 6 de Setembro de 2019 no campus PTI da UNILA, dentro do Parque Tecnológico da Usina Hidrelétrica de Itaipu, na cidade de Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná, Brasil. A UNILA, sede do evento, é uma universidade temática criada em 2010 pelo governo federal do Brasil com a missão institucional de formar recursos humanos aptos a contribuir com a integra- ção latino-americana, com o desenvolvimento regional e com o intercâmbio cultural, científico e educacional da América Latina, especialmente no MERCOSUL. Sua finalidade, portanto, é conver- ter-se em um espaço de encontros, de trocas e de aprendizagem mútua, que reforçam o compro- misso em prol da pertinência, da excelência e da construção sustentável de um mundo melhor.La Internacionalización de la Educación Superior se ubica en el centro de las agendas de gobier- nos e instituciones de excelencia académica (1.), sin embargo, los recursos y financiamientos asignados constituyen una debilidad sujeta a vaivenes políticos y económicos. Las estrategias innovadoras y la gestión profesionalizada constituyen una herramienta fortalecedora y consoli- dante. Este trabajo explora la incidencia de la Cooperación co-étnica como facilitador de la Internacionalización de Educación Superior y focaliza en el modo en que las asociaciones étnicas se pueden constituir en nexos entre quienes tienen a cargo las áreas en las instituciones de Edu- cación Superior y las instancias gubernamentales y no gubernamentales.Núcleo de Estudios e Investigaciones en Educación Superior del Mercosur - NUCLEO Grupo Interdisciplinar de Pesquisa em Educação na América Latina – EducAL/UNILA Instituto Mercosul de Estudos Avançados – IMEA/UNILA Pró-Reitoria de Relações Institucionais e Internacionais – PROINT/UNIL

Ageing effect on grooming activity in langur male bands (Semnopithecus entellus) in and around Jodhpur (India)

The study is based on grooming activity in different age class members of Semnopithecus entellus entellus all-male bands (AMB). All males seem to reach a peak in grooming frequency during and immediately following puberty and it is suggested that this peak corresponds to a period of establishing coalition bonds. High grooming rates may also be found in young adults who are actively and assertively challenging higher-ranking individuals. Finally, some old males exhibit paternalistic behavior toward young (generally pre-pubertal) males, which includes grooming, co-feeding and active defense by the older male. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis than grooming is an instrumental behaviour analogous to human gift exchange, which can be “used” by an individual for his ultimate benefit

Argentina (2002 - 2015): transición neomercantilista, estructuralismo á la diamand y keynesianismo social con restricción externa

There is a broad consensus that the crisis that occurred between 2001 and 2002 marked a change in the cumulation system of the Argentinian economy, a fact that gave rise to a new development mode. The main goal of this article is to address the controversies around it in order to improve the general characterization of the emerging regime, and to update its periodization. By combining the institutionalist approach of the Regulation Theory with the Latin American structuralist vision of external restrictions, the regulation mode of post-convertibility can be divided into three constitutive stages of the same development mode: neo-mercantilist transition (2002-2004), Diamond s wayregulationism (2004-2009), and social Keynesianism with external restriction (2009-2015).Há um consenso geral de que a crise que ocorreu entre 2001 e 2002 marcou uma mudança no regime de acumulação da economia argentina, fato que deu origem a um novo modo de desenvolvimento. O principal objetivo deste artigo é abordar as controvérsias em torno dele, a fim de melhorar a caracterização geral do regime emergente e atualizar sua periodização. Ao combinar a abordagem institucionalista da teoria da regulação com a visão estruturalista latino-americana de restrição externa, o modo de regulação da pós-conversibilidade pode ser dividido em três estágios constitutivos de um mesmo modo de desenvolvimento: transição neomercantilista (2002-2004), regulacionismo à la Diamand (2004-2009) e keynesianismo social com restrição externa (2010-2015).Existe un consenso generalizado acerca de que de la crisis acaecida entre 2001 y 2002 marcó un cambio en el régimen de acumulación de la economía argentina, hecho que dio lugar a un nuevo modo de desarrollo. El objetivo central del presente artículo radica en abordar las controversias alrededor del mismo con el propósito de perfeccionar la caracterización general del régimen emergente y actualizar su periodización. Al combinar el enfoque institucionalista de la teoría de la regulación con la visión estructuralista latinoamericana de la restricción externa, el modo de regulación de la posconvertibilidad puede dividirse en tres etapas constitutivas de un mismo modo de desarrollo: transición neomercantilista (2002 - 2004), regulacionismo á la Diamand (2004 - 2009) y keynesianismo social con restricción externa (2009 - 2015)

Immunomodulation with Probiotics Against Aeromonas veronii in Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus)

Aeromonas comprisea wide range of opportunistic bacteria that cause septicemia (blood poisoning)in fish.Withexpandingaquaculture, myriad methods have been used to combat these pathologiesincludingprobiotics and plant extracts which canpotentiallyaddress these diseases without harmingthe environment. Inthis study, four strains of opportunistic pathogens were isolated from diseased fish, thenmolecular identification of 16SrDNA was performed. Results identifiedthe four strains asAeromonas veronii, Shewanella sp., Bacillus cereus, and Aeromonas salmonicida. Experimental trialsrevealed that A.veroniiwas the primary strain. Multiple virulence-related factors were discovered, includingaerolysin (Aer), cytotoxic enterotoxin (Act), and the outer membrane protein (OmpAII).Thesewere foundonly in A.veronii. LC50 in grass carp was 3.6×104CFU/mLover 96 h, whereas the safe concentration was 9.11×103CFU/mL.Grass carp were challenged with 3 differentconcentrations of A.veronii. Following a 48h incubation period they were treated for 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h with 8.1×106CFU/mLconcentrations.The expression ofInterleukin-8(IL-8)andTumor Necrosis Factor-α(TNF-α)was up-regulated in the kidney, liver, spleen, and heart using qRT-PCR. Simultaneously, enzyme activity involving Pyruvate Kinase(PK),Alkaline Phosphatase(AKP), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT),Succinate Dehydrogenase (SDH), and Lysozyme (Lsz)inserum and liver tissues was significantly up-regulated.We found that probiotics enhancedgrowth of grass carp, improvedhealth status,and was beneficial in reducing the prevalence of this disease. Subsequent to feeding mixed probiotics,IL-8 and TNF-α geneexpression was significantly lower (p>0.05)than inthe infected group,at 16 and 31 days. Expression of these genes in the liver, spleen, and intestines of healthy grass carp fed probiotics wassignificantly up-regulated in contrast to grass carp fed a basal diet (p<0.05).Our results suggestthat use of probiotics as immune stimulator may improve the control of fish diseases in aquaculture

Modelos dinámicos heterodoxos para explicar el ciclo del empleo en Argentina

El objetivo central del presente artículo consiste en examinar los efectos de los esquemas cambiarios, los regímenes de demanda y la estructura productiva sobre la volatilidad cíclica del empleo en Argentina durante las últimas dos décadas. El principal aporte de la investigación radica en el  desarrollo teórico de una serie de modelos dinámicos que se nutren de distintas escuelas de  pensamiento heterodoxas, para dar cuenta de las características cíclicas del empleo que resultan de combinar la estructura productiva desequilibrada con el acelerador de la inversión, el multiplicador  keynesiano, las pujas distributivas, y los canales de ajuste de economía abierta (comercial y  financiero).Fil: Panigo, Demian Tupac.

Extrusion of Corn Grits with Native or Modified Starch Addition — Influence on Starch Digestibility Fractions, Shear Stress-at-Break, and Expansion Ratio

The aim of the paper was to seek suitable conditions of extrusion cooking using a laboratory single-screw extruder to increase slowly digestible (SDS) and resistant starch (RS) content in extrudates saving sensory characteristics of the final product prepared from corn grits with added native wheat starch, distarch phosphates, or soluble fibre Nutriose (Roquette, France). In addition to the composition of input mixtures, process parameters of a single-screw extruder, such as speed of screw and barrel temperatures, were changed. The highest expansion ratio (4.14) was found for temperatures 44 °C, 90 °C, 120 °C, and 140 °C, die diameter 3 mm, compression ratio 3:1, rotation speed 140 r.p.m., and dosing 15 r.p.m. The addition of native wheat starch to corn grits resulted in values of the expansion ratio ranging from 1.17–2.38. A high concentration of RS — 2.4% per starch — was observed for a 20% ratio of Nutriose with a 10% addition of water. The addition of 20–50% of native wheat starch resulted in values ranging from 0.2–0.4% per starch. The highest SDS content (72.5% per starch) in extrudates was obtained for the mixture of corn grits, 20% cross-linked starch, and water (10% addition)

Study of the impact of tourists and local visitors / feeders on free-ranging Hanuman langur population in and around Jodhpur, Rajasthan (India)

The Jodhpur city of Rajasthan has many tourist places where Hanuman langurs habitually feed on the food given by the visitors to them. The interactions were studied between Hanuman langurs and the visitors in and around Jodhpur by means of interviewing the visitors and direct observations of the behaviour of Hanuman langurs and visitors. Most (82.2%) of the observed interactions involved the presence of food; only in 17.8% of the interactions we observed langurs threatening or chasing the visitors. Some differences, however, emerged between what the visitors reported in the interviews and what we observed. Most respondents (76.1%) reported in the interviews that hostile interactions were started by monkeys, whereas analysis of the direct interactions showed that 47.3% of such interactions were initiated by visitors and only 39.6% by Hanuman langurs. Moreover, 83.9% of the visitors affirm them to feed Hanuman langurs, while 70.2% of them report having seen other visitors feeding them. On the basis of the above results, it would be beneficial to establish an educational program, providing information about the behaviour of Hanuman langurs and the consequences that feeding them could have on their behaviour and on their interactions with visitors
