Interpretation, jurisdiction and the authority of law

El presente ensayo plantea la dicotomía existente entre el principio de autoridad del Derecho y la idea de autonomía individual partiendo de un análisis crítico de un trabajo clásico del iusfilósofo Joseph Raz sobre la teoría de la autoridad.This essay presents the dichotomy between the principie of authority of law and the idea of individual autonomy based on a critical analysis of a classical work of the legal philosopher Joseph Raz on the theory of authority

The Andaman Islanders in a Regional Genetic Context: Reexamining the Evidence for an Early Peopling of the Archipelago from South Asia

The indigenous inhabitants of the Andaman Islands were considered by many early anthropologists to be pristine examples of a negrito substrate of humanity that existed throughout Southeast Asia. Despite over 150 years of research and study, questions over the extent of shared ancestry between Andaman Islanders and other small-bodied, gracile, dark-skinned populations throughout the region are still unresolved. This shared phenotype could be a product of shared history, evolutionary convergence, or a mixture of both. Recent population genetic studies have tended to emphasize long-term physical isolation of the Andaman Islanders and an affinity to ancestral populations of South Asia. We reexamine the genetic evidence from genome-wide autosomal single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data for a shared history between the tribes of Little Andaman (Onge) and Great Andaman, and between these two groups and the rest of South and Southeast Asia (both negrito and non-negrito groups)

Reversible and irreversible trapping at room temperature in poly(thiophene) thin-film transistors

We measured the bias stress characteristics of poly(thiophene) semi-crystalline thin-film transistors (TFTs) as a function stress times, gate voltages and duty-cycles. At room temperature, the bias stress has two components: a fast reversible component and a slow irreversible component. We hypothesize that the irreversible component is due to charge trapping in the disordered areas of the semiconductor film. At low duty-cycle (<2%), the fast bias stress component is reversed during the off-part of the cycle therefore the observed VT shift in only caused by irreversible trapping. Irreversible trapping follows power-law kinetics with a time exponent approximately equal to 0.37. We use these findings to estimate the lifetime of TFTs used as switches in display backplanes
