    En este trabajo nos propusimos investigar acerca de los imaginarios sociales que construyen los jóvenes de la ciudad de La Plata en relación al inmigrante boliviano. Nuestro objetivo fue constatar si los planteos de Grimson según los cuales en la década del ’90 existían discursos xenófobos, seguían vigentes en la actualidad o bien si habían surgido discursos impugnadores. Para ello tomamos como referencia tres ejes principales: seguridad, vivienda/tierra y trabajo, ya que creíamos que son estas áreas en las que los inmigrantes bolivianos no se encuentran en igualdad de condiciones en relación a los argentinos. Fue así que realizamos entrevistas en profundidad a jóvenes pertenecientes a diferentes sectores que posean una inserción diferenciada en la esfera económica de la estructura social, y que al mismo tiempo mantengan algún tipo de vínculo con los ejes seleccionados. Por esta razón optamos por dueños de empresas inmobiliarias, empleados administrativos del registro de las personas, personal policial y los llamados “cuida coches”. La elección de dicha variedad de jóvenes se produjo a partir de la hipótesis de que tendrían percepciones diferentes, por los que nos interesó ver las yuxtaposiciones, alianzas y antagonismos entre las mismas.Facultad de Periodismo y Comunicación Socia

    Exponemos un balance sobre la Edad del Bronce en San Fernando. Analizamos las bases arqueológicas para el estudio de las sociedades de mediados del II° milenio a.C. Se trata de comunidades periféricas, que habitan un medio insular, donde aprovechan recursos naturales, fundamentalmente malacológicos, pero que generan una importante agricultura, existiendo una clara relación de dependencia respecto a un centro nuclear ubicado en las campiñas interiores.We show a summary about Bronze Age in the island of San Fernando. Archaeological basis are analyzed to study the societies of the midle of the second millennium B.C. They are peripheric communities who live in the island, where they use natural resources, fundamentally molluscs, which generate an important agriculture, so there is a clear relation of dependence with regard to a nuclear center in the interior contryside

    Background: Integrative oncology has proven to be a useful approach to control cancer symptoms and improve the quality of life (QoL) and overall health of patients, delivering integrated patient care at both physical and emotional levels. The objective of this randomized trial was to evaluate the effects of a triple intervention program on the QoL and lifestyle of women with breast cancer. Methods: Seventy-five survivors of stage IIA-IIB breast cancer were randomized into 2 groups. The intervention group (IG) received a 6-month dietary, exercise, and mindfulness program that was not offered to the control group (CG). Data were gathered at baseline and at 6 months postintervention on QoL and adherence to Mediterranean diet using clinical markers and validated questionnaires. Between-group differences at baseline and 3 months postintervention were analyzed using Student’s t test for related samples and the Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results: At 6 months postintervention, the IG showed significant improvements versus CG in physical functioning (p = .027), role functioning (p = .028), and Mediterranean diet adherence (p = .02) and a significant reduction in body mass index (p = .04) and weight (p = .05), with a mean weight loss of 0.7 kg versus a gain of 0.55 kg by the CG (p = .05). Dyspnea symptoms were also increased in the CG versus IG (p = .066). Conclusions: These results demonstrate that an integrative dietary, physical activity, and mindfulness program enhances the QoL and healthy lifestyle of stage IIA-IIB breast cancer survivors. Cancer symptoms may be better managed by the implementation of multimodal rather than isolated interventions.Background: Integrative oncology has proven to be a useful approach to control cancer symptoms and improve the quality of life (QoL) and overall health of patients, delivering integrated patient care at both physical and emotional levels.

    Studies of the prehistory of the area of La Janda (province of Cadiz) were carried out at the beginning of this century from the perspective of Cultural Historicism. Our group has done systematic archaeological surveys and rescue excavations during this decade, with the aim of studying the historical process of the hunter-gatherer, tribal and early class societies that lived in the Atlantic Band of Cadiz. The application of geoarchaeological and archaeometric techniques to the study of the archaeological products and the mineralogical and petrological analyses of the raw materials, as well as the geological ones, allow us to glimpse interesting aspects about the historical and economic process of these social formations.Los trabajos sobre la Prehistoria de la comarca de La Janda (provincia de Cádiz) fueron realizados a principios de siglo desde el Historicismo Cultural. En la presente década nuestro grupo ha llevado a cabo prospecciones arqueológicas sistemáticas y excavaciones de urgencia, con el fin de conformar el proceso histórico de las sociedades cazadoras-recolectoras, tribales y clasistas iniciales, que habitaron la Banda Atlántica de Cádiz. La aplicación de técnicas geoarqueológicas al estudio de los productos arqueológicos y el análisis mineralógico y petrológico, tanto de las materias primas utilizadas como de los materiales geológicos, permiten vislumbrar interesantes aspectos sobre el proceso histórico y económico de dichas formaciones sociales

    Towards a Sustainable Campus: Working Together to Achieve the Green Campus Flag on the UDC Peripheral Campus of Ferrol

    [Abstract] Purpose. This paper aims to present and describe the main actions carried out in six different faculties and common areas such as cultural and research centres and administrative buildings in the Ferrol campus at the University of A Coruña to achieve the second green flag on a Galician University. Design/methodology/approach. A case study describing the steps for implementing a green campus programme in a medium-size, young university campus integrated into a small city. An Environmental Campus Committee was created to assess the main factors that affect environmental footprint, discuss sustainability initiatives and develop a guide to action regarding different goals related to sustainable transport options, energy, water conservation and waste reduction. The actions included several fields such as education, circular economy and healthy life and involved the on and off-campus community. Findings. The programme achieved a decrease in water consumption and electrical energy. An important change in educational values and behaviours regarding sustainability was observed in and out of the campus community. The measurements adopted mainly in waste management, mobility and education led the Ferrol campus to achieve a green campus flag on November 2019. Originality/value. This experiment can serve as a guide to establish the Green Campus philosophy in other similar university campuses.The authors of this article want to thank the finantial and institutional support of Environmental Office of University of A Coruña to develop talks, activities and to implement different actions in Ferrol Campus. The authors of this article want to thank the finantial and institutional support of Vicerrectorado del Campus de Ferrol y Responsabilidad Social of University of A Coruña to achieve the Green Flag.
