    El atleta y la salud: Una reflexión en torno a la corporeidad

    Get PDF
    Within the current conjuncture, the body archetypes referring to health and disease have been built based on the provisions and discourses resolved from biomedical science. Based on this premise, the text reflects on the way the body is conceived in sport from the different social, political, and economic forces that run through it. Likewise, it describes the way in which biomedical institutions end up reproducing the instrumental and mechanistic dispositions of athletes, at the cost of the influx of economic interests that are concentrated on these dehumanized bodies. Concluding that the dehumanization of the athlete is motivated by economic interests and results in the instrumentalization of the athlete's body through biomedical practices and alternative medicines.Dentro de la coyuntura actual, los arquetipos corporales referentes a la salud y la enfermedad se han construido con base en las disposiciones y los discursos resueltos desde la ciencia biomédica. A partir de esta premisa, el texto reflexiona en torno a la forma que se concibe el cuerpo en el deporte desde las distintas fuerzas sociales, políticas y económicas que lo atraviesan. Así mismo, describe la forma en que las instituciones biomédicas terminan por reproducir las disposiciones instrumentales y mecanicistas de los deportistas, a costa del influjo de intereses económicos que se concentran sobre estos cuerpos deshumanizados. Concluyendo que la deshumanización del deportista está motivada por intereses económicos y resulta en la instrumentalización del cuerpo del atleta por medio de las prácticas biomédicas y las medicinas alternativas

    Margarita de Sossa, Sixteenth-Century Puebla de los Ángeles, New Spain (Mexico)

    Margarita de Sossa’s freedom journey was defiant and entrepreneurial. In her early twenties, still enslaved in Portugal, she took possession of her body; after refusing to endure her owner’s sexual demands, he sold her, and she was transported to Mexico. There, she purchased her freedom with money earned as a healer and then conducted an enviable business as an innkeeper. Sossa’s biography provides striking insights into how she conceptualized freedom in terms that included – but was not limited to – legal manumission. Her transatlantic biography offers a rare insight into the life of a free black woman (and former slave) in late sixteenth-century Puebla, who sought to establish various degrees of freedom for herself. Whether she was refusing to acquiesce to an abusive owner, embracing entrepreneurship, marrying, purchasing her own slave property, or later using the courts to petition for divorce. Sossa continued to advocate on her own behalf. Her biography shows that obtaining legal manumission was not always equivalent to independence and autonomy, particularly if married to an abusive husband, or if financial successes inspired the envy of neighbors

    Risk portfolio on modern finance has become increasingly technical, requiring the use of sophisticated mathematical tools in both research and practice. Since companies cannot insure themselves completely against risk, as human incompetence in predicting the future precisely that written in Al-Quran surah Luqman verse 34, they have to manage it to yield an optimal portfolio. The objective here is to minimize the variance among all portfolios, or alternatively, to maximize expected return among all portfolios that has at least a certain expected return. Furthermore, this study focuses on optimizing risk portfolio so called Markowitz MVO (Mean-Variance Optimization). Some theoretical frameworks for analysis are arithmetic mean, geometric mean, variance, covariance, linear programming, and quadratic programming. Moreover, finding a minimum variance portfolio produces a convex quadratic programming, that is minimizing the objective function ðð¥with constraintsð ð 𥠥 ðandð´ð¥ = ð. The outcome of this research is the solution of optimal risk portofolio in some investments that could be finished smoothly using MATLAB R2007b software together with its graphic analysis
