La problemática de las partes y el contenido de la legitimación activa en la cuestión de inaplicabilidad por inconstitucionalidad de la ley

El presente trabajo aborda la justificación y el contenido de la legitimación activa en el proceso de inaplicabilidad por inconstitucionalidad de la ley en Chile, en una perspectiva de contexto de un sistema concentrado y concreto, para llegar posteriormente a la diferenciación entre la iniciativa de parte y la que corresponde a juez que conoce del proceso a quo. Se busca justificar la legitimación del juez de la causa, alternativa con la de las partes, pasando por la identificación y contenido de la legitimación pasiva en dicho control de constitucionalidad.This work deals with the justification and the content of the standing to sue in the process of inapplicability due to unconstitutionality of the law in Chile, with a perspective of the context of a concentrated and concrete system, to later differentiate between the initiative of the party and that belonging to the judge that knows the process a quo. The work also looks to justify the legitimation of the judge to the cause, alternative to that of the parties, going through the identification and content of the standing to be sued in said control of constitutionality

Salud, Enfermedad y Muerte: Lecturas desde la Antropología Sociocultural

Al contrario de lo que se piensa habitualmente, en cuanto hecho "biológico" o "natural", son varias las implicancias socioculturales de los términos salud y enfermedad. En cuanto la enfermedad opera como un hecho científico externo al individuo, siendo su causa una bacteria, un virus, un parásito u otro elemento patógeno, desde un punto de vista antropológico parece más correcto utilizar la palabra "dolencia". Dolencia es una condición de falta de salud sentida por un individuo. La antropología sociocultural ha demostrado, por medio de numerosas investigaciones en diversos pueblos del planeta, que las percepciones de buena y mala salud, junto con las amenazas correspondientes, se encuentran culturalmente construidas

Building Urban Water Resilience: New Perspectives For The Guadalajara Drought-Readiness Program

Climate change is compelling cities to become resilient in the face of a wider range of meteorological phenomena. Starting with approaches to cope with hurricanes or floods, resilient city strategies have to consider longer-term and more territorially expansive challenges, such as multiannual and multi-regional droughts. Urban planners, local and regional governments, and political consultants are therefore driven to consider more complex models to build resilient cities. One example is the case of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico’s second largest city and which was recently included in the 100 Resilient Cities network. The city obtained a drought management program from the federal government in 2015, but such efforts have not yet been coordinated with current public policy or with the rapid growth of the city. This article explores a more comprehensive proposal of public policy to deal with a big city’s water supply and expected shortages. It combines elements from the Resilience Alliance methodology and the Transition to Urban Water Services of Tomorrow (TRUST) Program funded by the European Union.ITESO, .A.C

Entre la naturaleza y el mercado. El caso de una organización familiar campesina

El propósito de este artículo es poner atención en el envejecimiento de la población campesina y los factores económicos, sociales y culturales que le acompañan. Para ello, se dirigió la mirada hacia las formas de ser y hacer cotidianos – es decir, la cultura - que prevalecen en el campo, que delimitan la transferencia de activos y – en especial – las tierras, y la dificultad creciente que tienen los jóvenes para acceder a ellas por medio del estudio de caso de una organización familiar campesina, en la región de Colchagua

Immunogenicity to biological drugs in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis

Monoclonal antibodies or fusion proteins, defined as biological drugs, have modified the natural history of numerous immune-mediated disorders, allowing the development of therapies aimed at blocking the pathophysiological pathways of the disease, providing greater efficacy and safety than conventional treatment strategies. Virtually all therapeutic proteins elicit an immune response, producing anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) against hypervariable regions of immunoglobulins. Immunogenicity against biological drugs can alter their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties, thereby reducing the efficacy of these drugs. In more severe cases, ADAs can neutralize the therapeutic effects of the drug or cause serious adverse effects, mainly hypersensitivity reactions. The prevalence of ADAs varies widely depending on the type of test used, occurrence of false-negative results, and non-specific binding to the drug, making it difficult to accurately assess their clinical impact. Concomitant use of immunosuppressors efficiently reduces the immunogenicity in a dose-dependent manner, either by decreasing the frequency of detectable ADAs or by delaying their appearance, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of biological therapies. Among the new therapeutic strategies for the management of psoriasis, biological agents have gained increasing importance in recent years as they interrupt key inflammation pathways involved in the physiopathology of the disease. Reports regarding ADA in new biologics are still scarce, but the most recent evidence tends to show little impact on the clinical response to the drug, even with prolonged treatment. It is therefore essential to standardize laboratory tests to determine the presence and titles of ADAs to establish their administration and management guidelines that allow the determination of the real clinical impact of these drugs

Génesis de la televisión en Andalucía: los primeros cámaras

El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar los orígenes de la televisión en Andalucía, centrándonos principalmente en los cámaras, profesionales que poseen un mérito incuestionable. Además, recogemos valoraciones inéditas de reconocidos periodistas sobre estos primeros cámaras andaluces. El comienzo del gremio de los cámaras se caracterizó por la precariedad económica, pues será a mediados de los años 80 cuando se regularicen sus condiciones laborales. Haciendo un repaso por las distintas provincias andaluzas, hablaremos de grandes profesionales de la cámara, como son: en Sevilla Roberto Dorado, José Luis Bustamante «Buby», Alfonso Contreras, Fernando Caparrós y Antonio Serrano o Pepe Narbona; en Almería la familia Cano o Luis Carranza González; en Cádiz José González Rodríguez; en Córdoba Antonio Salmoral; en Granada Armando López Murcia o Domingo Jiménez Toledo; en Huelva Pedro Rodríguez; en Jaén Higinio Montes; y en Málaga la familia España. Finalmente, reflexionamos sobre el cambio que ha sufrido el periodismo en apenas medio siglo, como consecuencia de la expansión, por un lado, de nuevas tecnologías, y, por el otro, de internet, que en estos momentos es el medio de comunicación por antonomasiaThe aim of this paper is to analyze the origins of television in Andalusia, mainly focusing on the cameramen, professionals who have an unquestionable merit. In addition, we collect unpublished evaluations of top journalists about these early Andalusian cameramen. The early cameramen were marked by economic instability, it will be in the mid-80s when they regularize their working conditions. Looking back through the various provinces of Andalusia, we will talk about great professionals of the camera, such as: in Sevilla Roberto Dorado, José Luis Bustamante «Buby», Alfonso Contreras, Fernando Caparrós and Antonio Serrano or Pepe Narbona; in Almería the Cano family or Luis Carranza González; in Cádiz José González Rodríguez; in Córdoba Antonio Salmoral; in Granada Armando López Murcia or Domingo Jiménez Toledo; Pedro Rodríguez in Huelva; in Jaén Higinio Montes; and in Málaga the España family. Finally, we reflect on the change that journalism has had in just half a century, as a result of the expansion, on the one hand, new technologies, and, on the other, the internet, which currently is the quintessential medi

PHOKHARA, the radiative return and the (g−2)μ(g-2)_{\mu} puzzle

The radiative return has proven to be a competitive method for the precise measurement of the hadronic cross section, detailed studies of hadronic interactions, and even discoveries of new resonances. The most recent and future devolopments of the Monte Carlo event generator PHOKHARA are highlighted, and the impact of the radiative return measurements on the $(g-2)_\mu$ puzzle is discussed.Comment: Talk given at 9th International Workshop on Tau Lepton Physics (Tau06), Pisa, Italy, 19-22 Sep 2006. 6 pp, 1 figur
