Thinking the Revolution: Latin-American Thought and Intellectuals in the Chilean MIR 1965-1973. Theoretical and Methodological Proposal to its Study from the Perspective of Intellectual History and the History of Violence

Indexación: Revista UNABEl siguiente trabajo presenta una discusión teórica y una propuesta metodológica para el estudio de los referentes intelectuales latinoamericanos que definieron ideológica y políticamente al Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria (MIR). En términos más específicos, son consideraciones teóricas para indagar en las ideas que forman parte del pensamiento político, económico y filosófico latinoamericano que se convirtieron en referencia para el Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria. La propuesta está pensada para conocer la relación que existía entre los intelectuales latinoamericanos y la organización revolucionaria, diferenciando entre quienes cumplían un rol de referentes y quienes eran militantes del MIR.This paper introduces a theoretical discussion and a methodological proposal to the study of those intellectual Latin-American models that defined the Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria (MIR) from both an ideological and a political perspective. In specific terms, it offers theoretical considerations to investigate the ideas that changed the political, economic and philosophical Latin-American thought and later became paradigmatic for the MIR. This approach aims to understand the connection between Latin American intellectuals and the revolutionary organization, making a distinction between those who played a paradigmatic role to the MIR and those who were active militants.http://revistahumanidades.unab.cl/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/A8.-LOZOYA.pd

Have You Seen the Poop Fairy?

This research seeks to understand the effectiveness of the There is no Poop Fairy campaign through a public survey of dog owners. The There Is No Poop Fairy campaign was initiated in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in 2014, with the goal of getting dog owners to pick up and properly dispose of their dogs’ waste. The Rio Grande is contaminated with E. coli bacteria that originates in part from dog waste, which is carried to the river through storm water. Levels of E. coli in the Rio Grande have decreased dramatically within the past few years, coincident with the campaign. The main purpose of the study is to better understand whether or not the There Is No Poop Fairy Campaign may have contributed to the decrease in E. coli by surveying dog owners who live in the focus area of the campaign about their exposure to the campaign information and any subsequent changes in behavior. The research also investigates other issues such as dog owners’ feelings of responsibility in picking up their dogs’ waste (i.e., is it up to them or somebody else?) and the acceptability in leaving dog poop behind in public spaces (e.g., parks and open space settings). This is a non-probability survey and will be conducted using convenience sampling method

This is a non-probability survey and will be conducted using convenience sampling methods. To date, there have been approximately n=50 survey participants, with the goal of reaching 500-1000 participants. The survey will be conducted from October 1st, 2018 through December 1st, 2018. The findings will be of interest to other scholars in this area of research as well as city and county officials and scientists who are interested in the effectiveness of voluntary community campaigns related to environmental and public health

A Vision Without Borders: Magonismo and Mexican Women

Recent scholarship on the Magonista movement centers around the actions of the male leadership, without fully exploring their acceptance of women’s involvement. In fact, Mexican women, through this intelligentsia movement, were able to challenge social expectations and fully participate in political activism during the Mexican Revolution. As a result, Mexican women understood their political power, and were motivated to create radical movements of their own. In the end, Mexican women practiced a feminism that was concerned with multiple issues that impacted Mexican communities on both sides of the U.S-Mexico border. In this work, I closely analyzed contemporary speeches, correspondence and newspaper articles that have shown the Magonistas’ views on women and the women’s perceptions of themselves as revolutionaries. In essence, my work closely follows the theory of Feminism Transfronterizo, which connects the Mexican women\u27s notion of feminism with their activism against racial discrimination and U.S imperialism, and their involvement in labor organizing. Overall, my work shows that Magonista ideals taught women to fight for their communities experiencing institutional oppressions. Additionally, the Magonistas\u27 support and invitation for women, reinforced the idea of women’s worth as individuals and their potential for leadership. Thus, my work demonstrates that the Magonistas\u27 vision for a more egalitarian society became universalistic with the inclusion of women. More importantly, Mexican women’s participation in the Magonista movement expanded their perceptions of feminism

Violencia y transgresión femenina en el mundo rural: Chile central 1850-1890

El siguiente trabajo analiza las manifestaciones de violencia y transgresión femenina en el espacio rural chileno durante la segunda mitad del siglo XIX. en este se indaga sobre las manifestaciones específicas que imprimen al delito y la transgresión moral las mujeres del mundo popular. las categorías levantadas por James scott, definidas como discurso público y discurso oculto, serán utilizadas para analizar el accionar femenino en el campo, evidenciando que las mujeres populares públicamente hacen uso de las normas morales dictaminadas por la elites, pero en la privacidad cotidiana, la transgresión a dicha moral es una constante que les permite la subsistencia material y la creación de códigos propios de comportamientos y valores que tienen mucho más que ver con una identificación de clase que con un estereotipo de género
