The development of sustainable entrepreneurship research field

Sustainable entrepreneurship has received substantial recognition from academics and practitioners in the last decade, with a noticeable and rapidly increases of publications on the topic. Through bibliometric techniques and tools, this study allows mapping the main academic literature on sustainable entrepreneurship and analyzes the most substantial contributions to the advances of research in this field. The chronological analysis of literature from the Web of Science-Social Sciences Citation Index (WoS-SSCI) database until January 2018 provides new insights not previously reviewed, such as the journals, authors and articles more influential so far. As a result, 282 articles were retrieved, which were published in 140 journals and written by 663 authors affiliated to 413 institutions, from 50 countries. The analysis allowed identifying publication evolution over time, and provides clues about the opportunities for future researc

4to. Congreso Internacional de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación para la Sociedad. Memoria académica

Este volumen acoge la memoria académica de la Cuarta edición del Congreso Internacional de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación para la Sociedad, CITIS 2017, desarrollado entre el 29 de noviembre y el 1 de diciembre de 2017 y organizado por la Universidad Politécnica Salesiana (UPS) en su sede de Guayaquil. El Congreso ofreció un espacio para la presentación, difusión e intercambio de importantes investigaciones nacionales e internacionales ante la comunidad universitaria que se dio cita en el encuentro. El uso de herramientas tecnológicas para la gestión de los trabajos de investigación como la plataforma Open Conference Systems y la web de presentación del Congreso http://citis.blog.ups.edu.ec/, hicieron de CITIS 2017 un verdadero referente entre los congresos que se desarrollaron en el país. La preocupación de nuestra Universidad, de presentar espacios que ayuden a generar nuevos y mejores cambios en la dimensión humana y social de nuestro entorno, hace que se persiga en cada edición del evento la presentación de trabajos con calidad creciente en cuanto a su producción científica. Quienes estuvimos al frente de la organización, dejamos plasmado en estas memorias académicas el intenso y prolífico trabajo de los días de realización del Congreso Internacional de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación para la Sociedad al alcance de todos y todas

Evaluación del comportamiento de productos químicos en el acabado del cuero

El comportamiento de productos de acabado empleados en la terminación del cuero se halla identificado por las múltiples propiedades de cada una de ellos, cuyas mezclas o formulaciones son determinantes. Sin embargo esta tesis de tipo investigativo propone proporciones en las formulaciones más fundamentales como son prefondo y color que comprende ligante-rellenante y resma-pigmento respectivamente que permitan obtener los mismos resultados en algunos casos, otros mejores e inclusive algunos no son los más adecuados. Esta evaluación se realiza basándose en un análisis individual en cada uno de los ensayos de calidad que se verifican para el control final del cuero. Cumple o no con las especificaciones de calidad determinantes si el cuero es apto o no para el fin que se propone. Se concluye al final que mejores resultados se dan para cueros experimentados con proporciones altas de tesina-pigmento 90:10 y proporciones 21 de lizante-rellenante, quedando a consideración del departamento de Ingeniería y Desarrollo. El último capítulo hace referencia a una serie de medidas preventivas para utilización de productos químicosIngeniero QuímicoCuenc

Modelo OpenUTPL como contribución a la innovación educativa en una institución de Educación Superior

En el presente artículo se describe la iniciativa OpenUTPL aplicado en la Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja de Ecuador (UTPL), como un modelo innovador que apertura el conocimiento contribuyendo al fomento de Recursos Educativos Abiertos (REA). La metodología que se sigue es descriptiva. Los elementos del modelo son los recursos, las actividades y la comunicación. Los resultados de su aplicación derivaron en cuatro acciones que produjeron cambios sustanciales en las prácticas innovadoras. En primer lugar, se institucionalizó la licencia Creative Commons para la publicación en abierto de los materiales educativos producidos. En segundo lugar, la producción de materiales educativos nuevos (REA) bajo la licencia institucional. En tercer lugar, la integración de los REA en las prácticas educativas de la UTPL. En cuarto lugar, la diseminación y movilización de las prácticas con el apoyo de diferentes recursos tecnológicos como en el Entorno Virtual de Aprendizaje (EVA), en este caso Moodle así como, en seminarios, congresos, redes de investigación. Los resultados llevan a consolidar que para que se produzca innovación efectiva es indispensable introducir elementos nuevos de cambio y contar con actitud favorable de quienes la ejecutan. Del estudio se pueden derivar investigaciones futuras para conocer las actitudes del profesor frente a la integración e impacto de los REA en su proceso de enseñanza.UTP

Biopower and citizenship in Latin America. A reading from Foucault

ES: En este artículo se realiza un análisis del discurso de Foucault para comprender la formalización de ciertos dispositivos han fundado una gramática de la dominación, expresada en las relaciones entre el poder sobre los cuerpos (el Biopoder) y el ejercicio de la ciudadanía. Aunque el propósito es eminentemente teórico, se pretende lograr una aproximación factual al caso latinoamericano, en el entendido que las democracias de la región son hijas dilectas de la modernidad y, además, de los esquemas gubernamentales que privilegian la figura del ciudadano como actor político y sujeto histórico. Metodológicamente se realiza un análisis crítico-hermenéutico, desde el cual se trata, de visibilizar las estrategias de dominación e interpretar en la teoría de Foucault, la instauración discursiva de un nuevo orden societal, basado en la narrativa que relaciona poder y ciudadanía. Estudio permite concluir que, las categorías teóricas foucaultianas, develan al poder como un conjunto de relaciones, siempre en tensión, que, en épocas de cambios, siempre haya espacio, para construir nuevas reglas y regímenes de existencia. EN: In this article, an analysis of Foucault’s discourse is carried out to understand the formalization of certain devices that have founded a grammar of domination, expressed in the relationships between power over bodies (Biopower) and the exercise of citizenship. Although the purpose is eminently theoretical, it is intended to achieve a factual approach to the Latin American case, in the understanding that the democracies of the region are beloved daughters of modernity and, in addition, of government schemes that privilege the figure of the citizen as a political actor and historical subject. Methodologically, a critical-hermeneutical analysis is carried out, from which it is a matter of making domination strategies visible and interpreting in Foucault’s theory, the discursive establishment of a new societal order, based on the narrative that relates power and citizenship. Study allows us to conclude that Foucaultian theoretical categories reveal power as a set of relations, always in tension, that, in times of change, there is always room to build new rules and regimes of existence

Configurations of sustainable development goals that promote sustainable entrepreneurship over time

[EN] This paper examines sustainable entrepreneurship over time by focusing on the identification of the combinations of environmental factors (clean water and sanitation, affordable clean energy, urgent action to combat climate change, and life on land) and economic development factors (decent work and economic growth). Based on data from 50 countries, it examines the causal configurations behind the manifestations of these factors using fuzzy-set qualitative comparison analysis. The variables and data were derived from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor and the Sustainable Development Goals Index. Our key finding is that protecting and sustainably using terrestrial ecosystems always have a sufficiently positive effect to ensure a high level of sustainable entrepreneurship. Also, high levels of sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and sustainable growth and decent work, plus good access to affordable and sustainable energy and clean water are related to promote sustainable entrepreneurship.Moya Clemente, I.; Ribes-Giner, G.; Pantoja-Diaz, O.
