Introducimos a nuestros estudiantes a la comunicación visual en arquitectura entendiendo esa inicialidad en la especificidad de la disciplina. Reflexionamos desde una existencia alimentada de una visualidad que nos organiza permanentemente los modos de vida e interacción con el medio. Un nuevo sistema de lo visible demandado por la virtualidad reacondiciona las lógicas de comprensión y análisis del mundo instalándose como una nueva forma de ver y de relacionar nuestra mirada con nuestras acciones. La propuesta de cátedra fue articular esta nueva visibilidad en el ciclo 2020. Nos demandó análisis, exploración y revisión entre saberes diferentes, pero no contrapuestos. Elegimos accionar y nos sorprendió el saber.

El presente trabajo tratará como temática principal lo que nosotros consideramos la gran victoria de la última dictadura militar: el miedo. Uno de los interrogantes que guían nuestra investigación -aún en desarrollo- se refiere a los mecanismos tanto concientes como inconscientes que actuaron y actúan aun hoy de manera eficaz. El modelo represivo que predomino durante esa época, sigue estando vigente en la actualidad. Tomaremos como principales referencias la muerte de Kosteki y Santillán y la reciente desaparición de Julio López. La represión y el castigo se vuelven a inscribir dentro de los procedimientos de poder, reproduciendo sus técnicas. ; Eje temático: Psicología Social, Institucional y Comunitaria ; Facultad de Psicología

SUMMARY
The future of an institution, such as the European Union, ultimately depends on people's support. This paper investigates whether EU redistributive policies have improved public attitudes towards European integration, both in terms of public opinion and political preferences. We focus on Cohesion Policy funds, whose allocation allows us to single out these effects by means of a regression discontinuity approach. The results show that EU transfers have mitigated the rise of Eurosceptical attitudes and reduced political consensus for anti-EU parties. The effects are homogeneous across different socio-economic groups, including the most disadvantaged ones. The improvement in public support for the EU does not appear to be exclusively a spillover of the positive economic effect of funding; we show evidence suggesting the existence of a 'reciprocity-effect' channel, that is, citizens in recipient regions recognize the beneficial role of the EU as the source of funding.

This paper investigates whether EU redistributive policies improved the public attitude toward European integration, both in terms of public opinion and in terms of political preferences. We build a new dataset combining data from the European Social Survey, different data sources for political parties' stances and transfer records from EU institutions. We focus on the regional Cohesion Policy, within which the Convergence Objective program offers a quasi-experimental framework that allows us to single out these effects by means of a regression discontinuity approach. Results show that EU transfers have mitigated the rise of Eurosceptic attitudes and reduced the political consensus for anti-EU parties in long-time recipient regions. We estimate that increasing the regional per capita EU transfers by 1000€ over the 2000-2014 period reduces the share of Eurosceptic individuals by about 8 percentage points and voters' support for anti-EU parties by 10 percentage points. The effects are homogeneous across different socio-economic groups, including the most disadvantaged ones. Other attitudes that are often associated with Euroscepticism (i.e. anti-trade and anti-immigration stances) are not substantially affected by EU regional transfers.

Esta entrevista se realizó como parte del proyecto "¿Pax Brasiliana? Un Estudio de la Actuación Brasileña en las Crisis Constitucionales y Políticas en América Latina (1990- 2015)", desarrollado por el Dr. Oliver Stuenkel y financiado por FAPESP y CNPq. El objetivo de este proyecto es proporcionar datos para la comprensión no solo de las varias crisis políticas e institucionales que han ocurrido en América Latina desde 1990, sino también del papel de la agencia brasileña en cada una de ellas, a través de entrevistas con los principales actores del proceso y el análisis de la historia oral. La selección del entrevistado aquí se debe a su gran papel en la crisis democrática de Paraguay (1996-1999), cuando asumió como Presidente de Paraguay tras la renuncia de Cubas Grau en 1999. ; FAPESP ; CNPq

Context
Human activities can induce behavioural and stress responses in wild animals. Information is scarce on the effects of culling on anti-predator behaviour and endogenous stress response of wild ungulates.

Aims
In a Mediterranean area, we evaluated the effects of culling on vigilance, foraging and endogenous stress response of female fallow deer (Dama dama).

Methods
Effects of culling were evaluated through behavioural observations and hormone analyses of faecal samples.

Key results
In an area where culling occurred (C), individuals showed significantly greater vigilance rates and foraged closer to wood than in an area with no culling (NC). In C, 24 h after culling, faecal cortisol concentrations were greater than those recorded in NC, but they decreased significantly to values comparable to (48 h post-shot) and lower than (72 h post-shot) those observed in NC.

Conclusions
Most likely, culling determined behavioural responses in female fallow deer, but did not trigger long-term physiological effects.

Implications
Increased anti-predator behaviour may complicate the implementation of long-term culling programs.

It has been proposed that newborns' preferential orienting to faces is solely controlled by a subcortically mediated orienting mechanism (i.e. Conspec). In contrast, preferential‐looking tasks show that face preference at birth manifests itself also with measures that index fixation duration. It is possible, however, that orienting and fixation duration are confounded and only orienting matters. The present study used a revised version of the preferential‐looking technique, in which the same stimulus (i.e. a facelike or a non‐facelike pattern) was simultaneously presented to both sides of the visual field. Results showed that longer total fixation times on the facelike stimuli resulted from the sum of a greater number of brief fixations, rather than from the sum of a small number of long fixations. These findings support the hypothesis that, for facelike patterns, the duration of infant's fixation on the stimulus is determined by the nature of the pattern that impinges on the periphery of the visual field, more than by the nature of the pattern that is being looked at.
