Fisioterapia, filantropía y poliomielitis : actores, instituciones y políticas internacionales en la conformación de la fisioterapia en Colombia, 1930-1954
Este trabajo analiza la primera etapa del proceso de construcción e institucionalización de la Fisioterapia en Colombia, en el marco de unas políticas norteamericanas en el campo económico, político, social y sanitario, así como la influencia de actores e instituciones locales relacionadas con dichas políticas, entre los años 1930-1954. Durante el periodo comprendido entre 1930-1954, Colombia estuvo influida por agentes políticos internacionales, especialmente estadounidenses, en su proceso de transformación desde un Estado agroexportador hacia un Estado en proceso de desarrollo que comienza a configurarse progresivamente como industrial. En efecto, dicho proceso fue especialmente impulsado por los Estados Unidos, en el marco de unas políticas desarrollistas y orientadas hacia la defensa del panamericanismo y hacia la lucha anticomunista. Estas políticas favorecieron, entre muchas otras cosas, las transformaciones en los campos de la salud pública y de la educación médica, pero también, en el de la Fisioterapia. En este contexto, las repetidas epidemias de poliomielitis ocurridas en el país durante este periodo (Bogotá 76 y 38 casos en 1930 y 1939 respectivamente, Cúcuta 30 casos en 1936, Cali 179 casos en 1939, Medellín 19 casos en 1940, entre otras) (Malagon-Castro,1984), así como las secuelas motoras dejadas por ellas, estimularon la organización de asociaciones médicas especializadas, de proyectos filantrópicos impulsados por empresarios, y de acciones políticas, con el fin de enfrentar dichas secuelas.This paper analyzes the first stage of the process of construction and institutionalization of Physiotherapy in Colombia, within the framework of US policies in the economic, political, social and health field, as well as the influence of local actors and institutions related to political policies, between the years 1930-1954. During the period between 1930-1954, Colombia was influenced by international political agents, especially Americans, in its process of transformation from an agro-exporting state to a developing state that begins to gradually become industrial. In effect, this process was especially promoted by the United States, within the framework of policies developed and oriented towards the defense of Pan-Americanism and the anti-communist struggle. These policies favored, among many other things, the transformations in the fields of public health and medical education, but also, in Physiotherapy. In this context, the repeated polio epidemics occurred in the country during this period (Bogotá 76 and 38 cases in 1930 and 1939 respectively, Cúcuta 30 cases in 1936, Cali 179 cases in 1939, Medellín 19 cases in 1940, among others) ( Malagón-Castro, 1984), as well as the motor sequels left by them, stimulated the organization of specialized medical associations, philanthropic projects promoted by businessmen, and political actions, in order to face the aftermath
Short films in Canada
(1) SPEAKING OF MOVIESDirector: Michael Ostroff. Narrator: Laurie Lapierre. Canada 1994, 24 min. Pioneer filmmaker Gordon Sparling speaks out the title -- he was over 90 then and, like much of Canadian film history, long forgotten. This little documentary gives a brief glimpse of Sparling's talents, and whets the appetite for more of the lively and punchy "shorts" he made as head of production at Associated Screen News in Montréal from 1930-1954. These ten-minute theatrical entertainments were shot inexpensively and covered many subjects, with music, drama and humour abounding, and in the 1930's were being produced at the rate of one a month. Among the tiny excerpts in this film, Rhapsody in Two Languages was perhaps the most well-known, but it's fascinating to see "Music from the Stars" presenting a young Horace Lapp and his orchestra. Horace also lived to a ripe old age, and for many..

Policy Space and Voting Coalitions in Congress: The Bearing of Policy on Politics, 1930-1954
The question of how the substance of politics helps shape legislative coalitions and bases of support has been displaced from the center of studies of Congress since the publication of pioneering work in the 1960s and early 1970s. Seeking to revive this research program, the authors apply an original coding scheme in tandem with a factor analytic analysis of voting and policy space to the period spanning the last years of the Hoover presidency to the start of Eisenhower's. Investigating legislator parameters—the dimensions of voting space—and roll call parameters—the dimensions of policy space—the paper confirms the strong independent impact of the substance of policy on the political decisions of legislators and reveals an issue-specific concatenation of party and region that altered over the course of the period
