Los resultados que se presentan a continuación fueron obtenidos en una investigación ya culminada, que se llevó a cabo con 400 jóvenes, con el propósito de establecer la correspondencia entre sus representaciones políticas y los principios democráticos de la Constitución de 1991. El presente artículo permite reconocer que entre estas dos variables se encontraron relaciones de divergencia, ya que los pensamientos de la población encuestada y entrevistada, estuvieron más cerca de las concepciones tradicionales, que de la estructura politica planteada por la nueva Constitución, lo cual podría ser asumido como un indicador de que los avances democráticos planteados por la nueva Constitución aun no han logrado influenciar el pensamiento de la población escolarizada, la cual continúa manifestando actitudes y valores inspirados en la democracia representativa instaurada en el país por la Constitución de 1886.

El Programa de Investigación de Política Exterior Colombiana (PIPEC) inició en el año 2016 como una apuesta interdisciplinaria de estudiantes de Pregrado y Maestría de distintas áreas de la Universidad de los Andes, para investigar los avances, continuidades y transformaciones de la Política Exterior Colombiana. Así como los retos que están en el escenario de la Política Exterior del país con las nuevas demandas globales. ; Algunos movimientos y debates intelectuales en América Latina plantean alternativas para distanciarse del ¿modelo civilizatorio¿ de la modernidad eurocentrada. Según Escobar (2014), en cumbres de los pueblos indígenas, afrodescendientes, mujeres y campesinos se ha planteado que una de las causas más relevantes de la actual crisis global del clima, la alimentación y la pobreza es la crisis del modelo civilizatorio. Por ello, se ha reconocido la necesidad de un cambio de paradigma cultural, político y económico. Esto ha dado lugar a que algunos intelectuales de los pueblos originarios vinculen la ¿ofensiva política¿ de estos pueblos con un ¿nuevo proyecto de civilización¿. En este sentido, el propósito de este artículo es analizar el proyecto ecogubernamental en Colombia en relación a la deforestación masiva. Por ende, se arguye que la ecogubernamentalidad como producto de la ontología moderna dualista que legitima los procesos de deforestación es enfrentada actualmente por las ontologías relacionales de los pueblos indígenas, lo cual ha profundizado las violencias en contra de estas comunidades a partir de las amenazas a sus territorios. ; Some movements and intellectual debates in Latin America propose alternatives to distance themselves from the ¿civilizational model¿ of Eurocentral modernity. According to Escobar (2014), at summits of indigenous peoples, Afro-descendants, women and peasants, they have been argued that one of the most relevant causes of the current global crisis in climate, food and poverty is the crisis of the civilizational model. Hence, the need for a cultural, political and economic paradigm shift has been recognized. This has led some intellectuals of the native peoples to link the "political offensive" of these peoples with a "new project of civilization". In this sense, the purpose of this article is to analyze the eco-governmental project in Colombia in relation to massive deforestation. Therefore, it is argued that eco-governmentality, as a product of the modern dualistic ontology that legitimizes deforestation processes, is currently confronted by the relational ontologies of indigenous peoples, which has deepened the violence against these communities based on threats to their territories.

AbstractResearchers classify political parties into families by their shared cleavage origins. However, as parties have drifted from the original ideological commitments, it is unclear to what extent party families today can function as effective heuristics for shared positions. We propose an alternative way of classifying parties based solely on their ideological positions as one solution to this challenge. We use model‐based clustering to recast common subjective decisions involved in the process of creating party groups as problems of model selection, thus, providing non‐subjective criteria to define ideological clusters. By comparing canonical families to our ideological clusters, we show that while party families on the right are often too similar to justify categorizing them into different clusters, left‐wing families are weakly internally cohesive. Moreover, we identify two clusters predominantly composed of parties in Eastern Europe, questioning the degree to which categories originally designed to describe Western Europe can generalize to other regions.

The workshop Digital Parliamentary Data in Action (DiPaDA 2022) was organised in Uppsala on March 15, 2022, co-located with the 6th Digital Humanities in the Nordic and Baltic Countries Conference (DHNB). These workshop proceedings reflect the aims of the workshop to foster interaction and stimulate conversations between humanities, social sciences, and computational sciences – representing scholars from the Nordic region and beyond that work with digital parliamentary data. The contributions in the proceedings present results of ongoing research on creating and using historical and present parliamentary data to study parliamentary culture, politics, language use, and the media. Moreover, the contributions offer novel perspectives on applying, curating, and representing this key societal data, and discuss the future opportunities and challenges in such research.

Neste trabalho são trazidas à baila discussões acerca das ações e políticas tanto do Governo Federal como estadual que foram responsáveis pelo início de profundas transformações na economia do estado de Pernambuco. Se objetivou demonstrar que as decisões do Estado em promover a descentralização e crescimento econômico ocorreram por meio de investimento em infraestrutura econômico-produtiva, e pela oferta de políticas públicas efetivas de concessão de incentivos fiscais que têm em seus princípios descentralizar a produção industrial para as diversas regiões de seu território, por meio de alíquotas diferenciadas que aumentam os subsídios à medida que aumenta a distância da sua Região Metropolitana, a mais desenvolvida economicamente. O objeto de estudo escolhido foi a dinamização da economia do estado de Pernambuco, e todos os fenômenos que afloraram do momento de grande crescimento econômico por que passou após o ano de 2003. Considerou-se como recorte temporal os anos de 2007 a 2014 e foram consideradas as informações dos resultados dos investimentos dos Programas de Aceleração do Crescimento PAC 1 e 2 e os incentivos fiscais provenientes do Programa de Desenvolvimento de Pernambuco-PRODEPE no mesmo período. A pesquisa se desenvolve considerando que essas ocorrências criaram um ambiente propício para estimular a acumulação de capital industrial e eficientes na atração de investidores e de novas empresas, traz informações sobre os investimentos do PAC, bem como da eficiência do PRODEPE como potencial para implantação e atração de novas empresas.

The goal to create hazard-resilient communities through sustainable land-use planning requires a fundamental change to the way in which planning is conceptualized and practiced. This implies a deep revision of the operationalizing policy and legislation at local levels and a clearer interpretation of the in-between domain of risk and emergency assessment and management. This study deals with the complex relation existing between land use planning and disaster risk reduction and focuses on water-related risks. It aims to explore and define a set of proposals for increasing the effectiveness of actions taken by local administrations, at the stage of drafting and implementing local land use masterplans, so to enhance all aspects of disaster risk reduction in the planning practice. In particular, novel contents for the local urban masterplans are investigated based on a case study located in eastern Sicily, Italy: considerations concern urban key criticalities analysed within the catchment of the Lavinaio-Platani, the latter acknowledged as the most dangerous stream in the considered area. Although focused on a specific context, the outcomes of this research may be relevant for a wider range of urbanized environments, especially if prone to flooding risk, by providing targeted recommendations and cross-sectoral perspectives to profitably inform innovative masterplans.
