Se buscó identificar las motivaciones que llevan a los hombres gay del AMBA (Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires) a romper el Aislamiento Preventivo Social Obligatorio (APSO) con fines de encuentro sexual en el contexto de la pandemia de covid-19. Se realizó un estudio cualitativo-exploratorio, con veinte entrevistas semiestructuradas a igual número de personas. La muestra fue intencional no representativa, el contacto se estableció mediante la aplicación de GRINDR y TINDER pactando las entrevistas de manera telefónica o presencial. Se encontró que los entrevistados habían roto la cuarentena motivados principalmente por "la calentura", la dificultad para mantener "la abstinencia sexual" y por las "ganas de tener sexo", en el contexto de una alta valoración personal de la libertad y de familiaridad con la clandestinidad. Algunos realizan medidas de disminución del riesgo de covid-19, como el uso de cubrebocas y alcohol en gel, otros consideran que no son población en riesgo. ; Buscou-se identificar as motivações que levam homens gays da AMBA (Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires) a romper o Isolamento Social Preventivo Obrigatório (APSO) para fins de encontros sexuais no contexto da pandemia covid-19.

Constatou-se que os entrevistados romperam a quarentena motivados principalmente pelo «tesão», pela dificuldade de manter a «abstinência sexual» e pelo «desejo de fazer sexo», no contexto de uma alta valorização pessoal da liberdade e de familiaridade com a clandestinidade.

We designed a qualitative-exploratory study, where twenty semi-structured interviews were applied to equal number of gay men. The sample was intentional and not representative, the contact was established through the application of GRINDER and TINDER arranging the interviews by telephone or in person. We found that interviewees have broken quarantine mainly motivated by "the fever", the difficulty of keeping the "abstinence", and the "desire to have sex", in the context or a highly personal value of freedom and the familiarity with clandestine behavior. Some took measures to lower the risk of covid-19, by using covered mouths and alcohol-based gel, others mentioned that they are not part of a risk group.

Wine production is a cultural, creative, versatile activity, and at the same time, it carries conservative and traditional ideas and classifications that, in some cases, do not fit the dynamism and diversity of the global wine scenery. To achieve a better understanding and with the hope to eventually overcome this complex decalage, this article presents a theoretical discussion of value creation in the context of emerging wine-growing areas. The need to incorporate asocio-anthropological perspective to the study of value is explained, and the limits posed by the reproduction of representation and valorization models based on the classic discourse versions of terroir, tradition, and identity are argued. Given the factthat the worlds of wine (Old/New/Third), are being expanded and transformed, this paper shows that the new wine geographies offer a valuable testing ground for a well-aimed interpretation of the winemaking scenarios of the 21st century.
