Los caminos de la institucionalización de la economía popular en contextos neoliberales: aportes en clave de procesos hegemónicos

El presente artículo se propone analizar los sucesos recientes en torno a la economía popular en la Argentina en tanto proceso de institucionalización que se inserta en determinado proceso hegemónico (Roseberry; 2002). Para ello, en una primera parte se desarrollan los acontecimientos que dan cuenta de dicho proceso instituyente, principalmente en lo referente a la sanción y reglamentación de la Ley de emergencia social y los debates generados a su alrededor, para desde allí revisar los modos en que aparece renovado cierto debate en términos de la “autonomía” de las demandas populares en su vinculación con el Estado. En contraposición con ello, buscaremos revisar los sucesos posteriores a la reglamentación de la ley, con la intención de proponer marcos de entendimiento que ubiquen en el centro del análisis menos el consenso que los sentidos de disputa que se encuentran implicados tanto en el accionar del Estado como en el de los sujetos organizados.O presente artigo propõe analisar os recentes acontecimentos em torno da economia popular na Argentina como um processo de institucionalização que se insere em um determinado processo hegemônico (Roseberry, 2002).

At first, we describe and analyze the events that account for said instituting process, mainly in reference to the approval and regulation of Social Emergency Law and the debates around it, in order to consider the ways in which certain renovated debate concerning the idea of “autonomy” of popular demands in its relations with the State. Secondly, in contrast, we shall revise the events previous to this law regulation, to promote framework agreements that may position in the center of the analysis the meanings of the dispute implied between State policy and organized subjects.Fil: Hindi, Guadalupe.

Vías de señalización activadas en respuesta a la infección por el virus de las alas deformes en Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Transmission of viruses by Varroa destructor(Anderson &Trueman, 2000) to bees has been identified as one of the main threats to Apis mellifera L. colonies. It has also been suggested that synergistic parasite-pathogen interaction mediated by A. mellifera immunity can drive the collapse of honey bee colonies. We analyzed the relationship between deformed wing virus (DWV) viral load and gene expression levels of Toll Wheeler, cactus, domeless, TEPA, nitric oxide synthase, hymenoptaecin, vitellogenin, defensin, abaecinin winter bee samples ofA. mellifera with and without deformed wings. Samples were collected from hives in the field with high V. destructor infestation. In bees with deformed wings we found an increase in DWV titre and upregulation of genes in the Jak-STAT signalling pathway.Fil: Quintana, Silvina. Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata.

Viruses that affect Argentinian honey bees (Apis mellifera)

Beekeeping is a widespread activity in Argentina, mainly producing honey that has gained both national and international recognition. There are more than 3,000,000 hives in the country, mainly concentrated in Buenos Aires Province (approximately 1,000,000 hives). In recent decades, worrying rates of hive loss have been observed in many countries around the world. In Latin America, the estimated loss of hives is between 13% (Peru and Ecuador) and 53% (Chile). Argentina had annual losses of 34% for the period of October 1, 2016 to October 1, 2017. The causes of these losses are not clear but probably involve multiple stressors that can act simultaneously. One of the main causes of loss of bee colonies worldwide is infestation by the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor in combination with viral infections. To date, 10 viruses have been detected that affect honey bees (Apis mellifera) in Argentina. Of these, deformed wing virus, sacbrood virus, acute bee paralysis virus, chronic bee paralysis virus, and Israeli acute bee paralysis can be transmitted by mites. Deformed wing virus and the AIK complex are the viruses most often associated with loss of hives worldwide. Considering that bee viruses have been detected in Argentina in several hymenopteran and non-hymenopteran insects, these hosts could act as important natural reservoirs for viruses and play an important role in their dispersal in the environment. Further studies to investigate the different mechanisms by which viruses spread in the environment will enable us to develop various strategies for the control of infected colonies and the spread of viruses in the habitat where they are found.Fil: Salina, Marcos Daniel.

University education and popular economic dynamics: An approach in permanent construction from an anthropological experience of integral practices

En el trabajo, se presentan una serie de desarrollos curriculares en torno a las dimensiones, los sujetos y las problemáticas que configuran experiencias de economía social y popular en la trama urbana de la Argentina contemporánea, abordándolas en virtud de sus dinámicas de “economías domésticas”. Se trata de experiencias curricularizadas que interpelan los modos tradicionales de construcción de la agenda de docencia y, con especificidad, de los formatos que adquieren los procesos de enseñanza. Para ello, se desanda un recorrido iniciado en el año 2008, en el marco de la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la Universidad de Buenos Aires (uba), que implicó instancias de construcción de conocimiento sobre los diferentes componentes de un entramado que configura el campo de posibilidades y límites de las economías populares, la generación de vínculos y los marcos de trabajo común con organizaciones de la economía social y popular, y la construcción de demandas que se volvieron objeto de intervención y de aprendizaje al mismo tiempo. Instancias que además se vieron atravesadas por definiciones institucionales de la propia unidad académica y por las transformaciones ocurridas en la orientación de la política pública a partir del cambio en la gestión del Estado desde el 10 de diciembre de 2015.A series of curricular developments are presented in this article, revolving around subjects, dimensions and problems that structure popular and social economy experiences in urban contemporary Argentina, especially regarding their “domestic economy” dynamics. They express curricularized experiences that question the traditional modes of teaching agenda and —more specifically— the formats that teaching processes acquire. In order to present them, an itinerary originated in 2008 at the Faculty of Philosophy and Literature of the University of Buenos Aires is retraced; process that implied many stages of knowledge construction in reference to different components of the structural framework that configures the limits and field of possibilities of popular economies, bond creation and common work settings with social and popular economy organizations, and demand generation that became simultaneously objects of intervention and of teaching. All these developments are also interwoven by the Faculty’s own institutional definitions and by the transformations occurred in public policy orientation since State administration change in December 10th 2015.Fil: Hindi, Guadalupe.

Clinical manifestations of intermediate allele carriers in Huntington disease

Objective: There is controversy about the clinical consequences of intermediate alleles (IAs) in Huntington disease (HD). The main objective of this study was to establish the clinical manifestations of IA carriers for a prospective, international, European HD registry. Methods: We assessed a cohort of participants at risk with <36 CAG repeats of the huntingtin (HTT) gene. Outcome measures were the Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale (UHDRS) motor, cognitive, and behavior domains, Total Functional Capacity (TFC), and quality of life (Short Form-36 [SF-36]). This cohort was subdivided into IA carriers (27-35 CAG) and controls (<27 CAG) and younger vs older participants. IA carriers and controls were compared for sociodemographic, environmental, and outcome measures. We used regression analysis to estimate the association of age and CAG repeats on the UHDRS scores. Results: Of 12,190 participants, 657 (5.38%) with <36 CAG repeats were identified: 76 IA carriers (11.56%) and 581 controls (88.44%). After correcting for multiple comparisons, at baseline, we found no significant differences between IA carriers and controls for total UHDRS motor, SF-36, behavioral, cognitive, or TFC scores. However, older participants with IAs had higher chorea scores compared to controls (p 0.001). Linear regression analysis showed that aging was the most contributing factor to increased UHDRS motor scores (p 0.002). On the other hand, 1-year follow-up data analysis showed IA carriers had greater cognitive decline compared to controls (p 0.002). Conclusions: Although aging worsened the UHDRS scores independently of the genetic status, IAs might confer a late-onset abnormal motor and cognitive phenotype. These results might have important implications for genetic counseling. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01590589

Clinical and genetic characteristics of late-onset Huntington's disease

Background: The frequency of late-onset Huntington's disease (&gt;59 years) is assumed to be low and the clinical course milder. However, previous literature on late-onset disease is scarce and inconclusive. Objective: Our aim is to study clinical characteristics of late-onset compared to common-onset HD patients in a large cohort of HD patients from the Registry database. Methods: Participants with late- and common-onset (30–50 years)were compared for first clinical symptoms, disease progression, CAG repeat size and family history. Participants with a missing CAG repeat size, a repeat size of ≤35 or a UHDRS motor score of ≤5 were excluded. Results: Of 6007 eligible participants, 687 had late-onset (11.4%) and 3216 (53.5%) common-onset HD. Late-onset (n = 577) had significantly more gait and balance problems as first symptom compared to common-onset (n = 2408) (P &lt;.001). Overall motor and cognitive performance (P &lt;.001) were worse, however only disease motor progression was slower (coefficient, −0.58; SE 0.16; P &lt;.001) compared to the common-onset group. Repeat size was significantly lower in the late-onset (n = 40.8; SD 1.6) compared to common-onset (n = 44.4; SD 2.8) (P &lt;.001). Fewer late-onset patients (n = 451) had a positive family history compared to common-onset (n = 2940) (P &lt;.001). Conclusions: Late-onset patients present more frequently with gait and balance problems as first symptom, and disease progression is not milder compared to common-onset HD patients apart from motor progression. The family history is likely to be negative, which might make diagnosing HD more difficult in this population. However, the balance and gait problems might be helpful in diagnosing HD in elderly patients
