Las aventuras de la China Iron (2017) de la escritora argentina Gabriela Cabezón Cámara funda una línea nueva para ficcionalizar la pampa del siglo XIX con los recursos del presente, en clave contemporánea. La tradición argentina construyó fábulas sobre una pampa virilizada y heteronormada que se basaron en las heridas y cicatrices sociales, culturales, políticas e ideológicas: la Conquista, el control y demarcación del territorio, las bases de una mítica nacional y nacionalista, las vidas precarias de emergentes rurales –el gaucho malo, cantor, rastreador y baqueano, el peón, el puestero, el resero- e incluso sobre la violencia ejercida en mujeres, como las violaciones, los derechos de pernada, las maternidades obligadas que en el campo no aplican como delito. En contrapartida a esos modelos, esta novela imagina una pampa insurrecta que habilita experiencias novedosas para las mujeres, para las chinas o inglesas, para las blancas o las indias, llenas de esperanza, festividad, que llevan el convencimiento del cambio como acción política. En este trabajo se analizan las operaciones de repolitización cosmética, sexoafectiva y territorial sobre este espacio tradicionalmente ideologizado y saturado de sentidos probados. AbstractLas aventuras de la China Iron (2017), by the Argentine writer Gabriela Cabezón Cámara, founds a new line to fictionalize the pampas of the nineteenth century with the resources of the present, through contemporary lenses. The Argentine tradition built fables of and around virilized and heteronormativized pampas on the basis of social, cultural, political, and ideological wounds and scars (the Conquest, the control and demarcation of the territories, the foundations of a national and nationalist myth, the precarious lives of emerging rural figures --such as the bad gaucho, as well as the singer, tracker, and baqueano gauchos; the pawn; the puestero; the resero) and even on the basis of the violence exerted on women, such as rapes, the rights of pernada, the forced maternities that in the countryside did not qualify as crimes. In contrast to these models, Las aventuras de la China Iron imagines an insurrectionary pampa that enables new experiences for women, both chinas and English, white and Indian; experiences full of hope and festivity, which affirm their believe in change as a political action. This paper analyzes the operations of cosmetic, sexual-affective, and territorial repoliticizations of this rural space traditionally ideologized and saturated with comventional, reactionary meanings.

En los últimos años se ha podido identificar en las artes argentinas un creciente interés por los motivos rurales, que coincide, en los planos político y económico, con un momento en que el campo se afirma como centro de atención, un agente de disputa entre sectores y materia productora de nuevos relatos, y en el plano cultural, con un conjunto de especulaciones teórico-críticas que se interrogan sobre el estado del arte del presente. En este artículo se indaga cómo la imaginación artística contemporánea (literatura, cine y teatro) procesa esta revisibilización del campo, que alcanza también otros formatos y productos mediáticos (un reality show), y cómo estas expresiones conviven muchas veces sin diálogo ni engarces, pero también sin conflicto. ; During the last few years it became possible to identify in Argentinian arts a growing interest for rural motifs, coinciding with the political and economic areas, in a moment where the countryside solidifies as a focus of attention. It became the cause for arguments between sectors and material for new stories, and, in the cultural area, for a group of theoretical and critical speculations questioning the state of current art. This article delves into how the contemporary artistic imagination (literature, cinema, and theater) processes the resurgence of the countryside, reaching up to other different formats and media products (a reality show), and how these expressions most of the time coexist without dialogue or linkages, and yet, without conflict. ; Nos últimos anos pode-se identificar nas artes argentinas crescente interesse por motivações rurais, que nos planos político e econômico coincide com um momento em que o campo é reafirmado como centro de atenção, agente de disputa entre setores e matéria produtora de novos relatos, e no plano cultural, com um conjunto de especulações teórico-críticas que se questionam sobre o estado da arte do presente. Neste artigo investiga-se como é que a imaginação artística contemporânea (literatura, cinema e teatro) processa tal revisibilização do campo, que mesmo atinge outros formatos e produtos mediáticos (um reality show), e como essas expressões convivem muitas vezes sem diálogo nem travação, contudo sem conflito. ; Fil: de Leone, Lucia Maria.

Low fruit and vegetable (F&V) consumption is associated with higher rates of obesity and chronic disease among low-income individuals. Understanding attitudes towards F&V consumption and addressing policy and environmental changes could help improve diet and reduce disease risk. A survey of North Carolinians receiving government assistance was used to describe benefits, barriers, and facilitators of eating F&V and shopping at farmers' markets in this population. A total of 341 eligible individuals from 14 counties completed the survey. The most commonly cited barriers to eating F&V were cost (26.4%) and not having time to prepare F&V (7.3%). Facilitators included access to affordable locally grown F&V (13.5%) and knowledge to quickly and easily prepare F&V (13.2%). Among people who did not use farmers' markets, common barriers to shopping there were not being able to use food assistance program benefits (35.3%) and not knowing of a farmers' market in their area (28.8%); common facilitators included transportation (24.8%) and having more information about farmers' market hours (22.9%). In addition to breaking down structural/environmental barriers to farmers' market usage, there is a need to disseminate promotional information about farmers' markets, including hours, location, and accepted forms of payment.
