El nombre de Rafael Bielsa ha quedado impreso en los inicios del derecho administrativo en el escenario académico argentino de principios del siglo XX. Además de su relevancia en el campo jurídico, su trayectoria académica estuvo ligada a la conformación de la primera facultad que dentro de las universidades argentinas formuló una carrera de Ciencia Política, en la década de 1920. Su obra no se detuvo tampoco en los ámbitos del administrativismo, sino que fue acompañada por un buen número de producciones que a partir de diversos objetos de reflexión –los partidos, la universidad, el Estado– dan cuenta de un clima de ideas, discusiones y conceptos que confluyeron en la construcción del campo de los estudios sobre lo político en el país. El presente artículo se detiene en estos aspectos menos abordados de la trayectoria del jurista, reinsertándolo en las dinámicas de constitución de las "ciencias políticas" en Argentina en las primeras décadas del siglo XX. ; The name of Rafael Bielsa has been printed in the beginnings of administrative law in the Argentine academic scene of the early twentieth century.

Interdisciplinary is a theoretical and pedagogical approach and academic practice that is becoming more and more popular and widespread. Although interdisciplinary is the general name of certain theoretical, pedagogical and institutional activities, it has actually had a radical impact on disciplinary distinctions and has led different disciplines to redefine their epistemological and methodological boundaries. At the same time, interdisciplinary radically affects the structure of academic communities that have drawn their own symbolic and institutional boundaries with strict lines at times. In this study, the concept of interdisciplinary, which has become increasingly popular and influential, will be discussed in the context of the relatively long history of disciplinary distinctions, and different definitions of the concept and problematizations on the concept in different contexts will be critically analyzed. The principle of interdisciplinary in the development of modern science is assimilated on the basis of social work. Information occurs in a social context as a human activity. Therefore, both knowledge and the method of knowing, the society in which it emerged, tradition, history, religion, culture, etc.
How abstract can it be from its context? There are no universal and universally acceptable, definitive answers to similar questions. However, it can be stated that the concepts related to knowledge and science are handled and discussed in almost every historical period. Accordingly, knowledge, as one of the most fundamental problems of humanity, has been analyzed within the framework of religion and philosophy in ancient times.
This analysis is mostly carried out individually and knowledge is grounded in an isolated subject-object relationship. Early thinkers of antiquity saw knowledge as an act of rational justification. Recently, however, doubts about the representation of truth in modern science have been growing. Interdisciplinarity has almost become a keyword not only in today's academia, but also in the business world and different professional fields.

Argues that science has not lived up to its promise to work for the benefit of society as a whole, because of the narrow perspectives that basic & applied researchers take to their work. Among the barriers to broadening those perspectives is the myth that: the overriding purpose of science in human affairs is prediction; such predictions are prerequisites for major policy decisions; & scientific inputs to these decisions are objective & value-free. This myth is challenged from three standpoints -- epistemology, the historical context, & contemporary case studies -- as a step toward improving the responsibility & accountability of science to society. 79 References.

A formal model in the social sciences builds explanations when it structures the reasoning underlying a theoretical argument, opens venues for controlled experimentation, and can lead to hypotheses. Yet more importantly, models evaluate theory, build theory, and enhance conjectures. Formal Modeling in Social Science addresses the varied helpful roles of formal models and goes further to take up more fundamental considerations of epistemology and methodology. The authors integrate the exposition of the epistemology and the methodology of modeling and argue that these two reinforce each other. They illustrate the process of designing an original model suited to the puzzle at hand, using multiple methods in diverse substantive areas of inquiry. The authors also emphasize the crucial, though underappreciated, role of a narrative in the progression from theory to model. Transparency of assumptions and steps in a model means that any analyst will reach equivalent predictions whenever she replicates the argument. Hence, models enable theoretical replication, essential in the accumulation of knowledge. Formal Modeling in Social Science speaks to scholars in different career stages and disciplines and with varying expertise in modeling

The study investigates the history of prisons in general. In particular, the author outlines how this process has been developed in Romania. The study is conceived and analysed taking into consideration the historical evolution of humanity, firstly the appearance of prisons is approached and afterwards their evolution until the XVIIIth ce ntury. Later on the reform process of the punitive feudal systems until the establishment of modern prisons is analysed. The study pays special attention to the penitentiary system under the communist regime (in particular, the author analyses the penitentiary system in communist Romania). At the end of the study, the penitentiary system in the post-communist period is analysed, suggesting some prospective visions on the future of penitentiaries.

Who were the British MPs sympathetic to the Soviets - the 'crypto-communists' 'left-wing gadflys', the 'neo-Stalinist left' so derided by fellow politicians, journalists, historians and the public. These Labour MPs, fingered as 'Soviet spies' who developed links with post-war Russia, were seen as potentially anti-Western actors in the Cold War. Against the Cold War examines the careers and motives of MPs like Arthur Horner, Tom Driberg and Ian Mikardo who developed ideological links with the Soviet Union and whose ideas influenced Labour's left-wing. Although radical and sympathetic to Communi
