The aim of this work is to identify some indicators of social capital in the sector of the aquaculture industry in the Northwest region of Mexico. Based on a theoretical model grounded in the social capital approach and network analysis, the article explores how social capital is being constructed in the aquaculture in Northwestern Mexico. Using a methodology that combines various documentary sources and information obtained from 48 interviews and 72 questionnaires applied to aquicultural SME, academic institutions and government agencies, this paper presents empirical evidence that suggests the existence of a social capital in construction in the mentioned region. It concludes that greater interaction between aquaculture producers, academia and government, could strengthen the existing social capital stock and, through this channel, contribute significantly to the development of this region. ; El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar algunos indicadores de capital social en el sector de la acuicultura en la región noroeste de México.

Today, in a post-pandemic space, all types of art, comprehending, due to their figurative specificity, certain spheres of objective reality, already as a result of this, circumstances have their own, only inherent laws. Using the inexhaustible possibilities of the plasticity of the human body, choreography has refined and developed expressive dance movements for many centuries. As a result of this complex process, a system of choreographic movements arose, that is, a special artistic and expressive speech of plastics, constitutes the creative material of dance imagery. Choreographic art includes various types of arts: music, choreography itself, drama, painting. Each of them, changing in accordance with the requirements of this type of art, becomes a necessary component of choreographic figurative thinking. Each type of art is achieved thanks to its own figurative specificity, patterns and certain pictorial and expressive means. Choreographic activity dictates its own laws of reflection of reality, is based not on the correspondence of life and artistic material, but on the degree of devotion to the metaphorical reflection of life. A comprehensive study of social constituting dance art in today's post-pandemic space is a complex and versatile task, it mainly involves the study of all its components. Moreover, each of them should be considered not in isolation, but in the general system of their internal connections - in the aspect of their rhythmic and metric, that is, motor organization.

AbstractWhile a vast amount of literature demonstrates the importance of having a board of directors (BoD) for positive firm outcomes, our empirical study based on a wide sample of family firms suggests this is not always the case, and that its impact on firm resilience is contingent on family social capital (FSC). When FSC is high, family members focus on internal governance and frequently reduce the BoD to a symbolic role. Thus, a BoD represents a cost rather than a benefit. In contrast, a BoD is very effective when a firm is poor in FSC and the family firm most resembles a non‐family firm. Consequently, the question is not whether to have a BoD but in which case it can benefit the family firm. Our analysis concludes that family members' involvement in the BoD per se does not enhance a firms' resilience as they have other informal mechanisms that play a similar role. However, executive and independent directors as key board members lead us to conclude that, together with the FSC, the composition of the board affects family firm resilience.

The whole world, at the beginning of 2020, was submerged in an unexpected health crisis as a result of the pandemic caused by the virus "COVID-19", which forced the countries of the various continents to take the necessary precautionary measures and initiate a quarantine that lasted for many months. With South America being the new focus of the pandemic, there was a need to think about the current situation, as a result of this; the following article leads us to discover that the health crisis is one, among many crises that are currently experienced: crisis from the diversity of ideologies; politics, economics and, as a result, the analysis of the transformation of social movements from three different perspectives: Marxist; centralized in the class, from an actional theoretical perspective and a postmodern perspective. It is a theoretical analysis, based on bibliographical studies. ; El mundo entero, a inicios del año 2020 se vio sumergido en una inesperada crisis sanitaria como consecuencia de la pandemia por el virus "COVID-19", que obligó a los países de los diversos continentes a tomar las medidas de precaución necesarias y a iniciar una cuarentena que se extendió por muchos meses. Siendo América del sur el nuevo foco de la pandemia, se dio la necesidad de pensarse la situación actual, a raíz de esto; el siguiente artículo nos lleva a descubrir que la crisis sanitaria es una, entre tantas crisis que se viven en la actualidad: crisis desde la diversidad de ideologías; la política, la economía y a raíz de eso el análisis de la transformación de los movimientos sociales desde tres diferentes perspectivas: Marxista; centralizada en la clase, desde una perspectiva de lo teórica accionalista y una perspectiva de lo posmoderno. Se trata de un análisis teórico, baseado en estudios bibliográficos.

Abstract Over the past decades, the profession of occupational therapy has increased its focus on the wellbeing of society as a whole in response to growing inequality. In addition, guidelines for occupational therapy student education have also been revised to ensure that occupational therapists graduate with an appreciation of and ability to work with diverse populations of people in multiple contexts, beyond a biomedical focus on health and impairment. As a result, occupational therapy educators have been challenged to create curricula that meet the profession's social responsibility by preparing students to practice with communities and populations in a contextualised way. To contribute to this discussion and foster dialogue about what this may look like in occupational therapy programs, we present examples of curricula from three courses in two undergraduate occupational therapy programs in Australia and Brazil: "Understanding the Context of Occupation" and "Occupation, Health and Participation - Communities and Populations", at Griffith University, Australia; and the course "Social Occupational Therapy", at the Federal University of Sao Carlos, Brazil. The courses include topics such as: working in micro to macro contexts, working with communities and populations, collective occupation, politics and advocacy, social justice, occupational justice, social security and others. With differences across the programs, based on their geographical and institutional contexts, as well as their socio-historical and cultural contexts, the examples provide some ideas for educators about preparing students to work in a contextualised way with communities and populations.

Purpose: This study examines the personal characteristics and social influence of Generation Z on their e-loyalty towards tourism websites. In contrast to previous models, this study explores the effect of perceived compatibility and innovativeness (personal characteristics) and subjective norm (social influence) on perceived usefulness and trust on tourism websites, which in turn influence e-loyalty in a generational context. These factors are crucial in e-commerce, but they have not been studied together in the context of tourism, especially for Generation Z.

Methods: Using a sample size of 389 respondents falling within Generation Z in India, the proposed model was validated using PLS-SEM. A quantitative approach was followed in this study and the data was collected by using a survey questionnaire.

Results: Within the wider context of technology adoption, the findings show the decisive role of both personal characteristics and social influence in determining the e-loyalty of Generation Z towards tourism websites.

Implications: The implications of understanding the e-loyalty of Generation Z may assist tourism firms in retaining them by developing and implementing effective marketing strategies. Moreover, the study's most significant contribution is that it considers Generation Z, a generation that will shape the world's future economy and a digital sector with significant purchasing power and influence.
