<p>Abel Rodríguez cuenta como sus pinturas se inscriben en los procesos de reactualización de la creación cósmica narrada en la historia oral del pueblo nonuya. Esta reactualización se efectúa en la vida cotidiana, iniciándose con la enseñanza nocturna de las palabras del creador y desarrollándose durante el día, gracias al trabajo y el sudor de la gente que transforma las palabras en figuras y las materializa haciendo chagras, malocas y cuerpos de parientes reunidos en las fiestas. Las pinturas de Abel muestran diversos momentos de estos procesos.</p>

AbstractWe extend classical ideal point estimation to allow voters to have different preferences when voting in different domains—for example, when voting on agricultural policy than when voting on defense policy. Our scaling procedure results in estimated ideal points on a common scale. As a result, we are able to directly compare a member's revealed preferences across different domains of voting (different sets of motions) to assess if, for example, a member votes more conservatively on agriculture motions than on defense. In doing so, we are able to assess the extent to which voting behavior of an individual voter is consistent with a uni-dimensional spatial model—if a member has the same preferences in all domains. The key novelty is toestimaterather thanassumethe identity of "stayers"—voters whose revealed preference is constant across votes. Our approach offers methodology for investigating the relationship between the basic space and issue space in legislative voting (Poole 2007). There are several methodological advantages to our approach. First, our model allows for testing sharp hypotheses. Second, the methodology developed can be understood as a kind of partial-pooling model for item response theory scaling, resulting in less uncertainty of estimates. Related, our estimation method provides a principled and unified approach to the issue of "granularity" (i.e., the level of aggregation) in the analysis of roll-call data (Crespin and Rohde 2010; Roberts et al. 2016). We illustrate the model by estimating U.S. House of Representatives members' revealed preferences in different policy domains, and identify several other potential applications of the model including: studying the relationship between committee and floor voting behavior; and investigating constituency influence and representation.

Roll call data are widely used to assess legislators' preferences and ideology, as well as test theories of legislative behavior. In particular, roll call data is often used to determine whether the revealed preferences of legislators are affected by outside forces such as party pressure, minority status or procedural rules. This paper describes a Bayesian hierarchical model that extends existing spatial voting models to test sharp hypotheses about differences in preferences using posterior probabilities associated with such hypotheses. We use our model to investigate the effect of the change of party majority status during the 107th U.S. Senate on the revealed preferences of senators. This analysis provides evidence that change in party affiliation might affect the revealed preferences of legislators, but provides no evidence about the effect of majority status on the revealed preferences of legislators.

El proceso de apertura comercial ha propiciado importantes cambios en el agro mexicano; muy notorios en el patrón de cultivos y en el marco institucional que ordena las relaciones de producción y comercialización del campo. La agricultura del noroeste de México, en particular la ubicada en la Costa de Hermosillo en el estado de Sonora y la del sur de Baja California Sur, exhibe evidentes transformaciones. Éstas se enmarcan dentro de la operación de las llamadas "redes globales de producción" (rgp) y en el contexto de un proceso de integración vertical que deriva en intensas interacciones extraterritoriales que propician el escalamiento competitivo. En ese sentido, el aprendizaje y la creación de nuevas habilidades productivas son indispensables para cumplir con los estándares de calidad exigidos en los mercados globalizados. Se compite en el mercado mundial sólo si existen innovaciones en el producto, en las funciones de los actores involucrados en la producción y comercialización agropecuaria y también se compite si se generan innovaciones a nivel del proceso. En las regiones agrícolas referidas es visible el paso hacia unidades de producción más sofisticadas, donde intervienen actores cuya actividad central se localiza en otros territorios. Este estudio analiza el papel de las rgp en la transformación del campo del noroeste de México. En particular, el objetivo es analizar justamente el proceso mediante el cual se modernizó la agricultura de ambas subregiones.

Summary to be sustainable over time, corporate social responsibility must have an impact on its environment and its partners in times of uncertainty. A crisis in the health, political and economic systems in Peru has been triggered as a result of COVID-19. The purpose of this investigation was to establish the relationship between social responsibility and quality management in a Peruvian insurance company. The methodology used to achieve the target was quantitative approach, non-experimental design and transversal scope. 331 collaborators were surveyed in the city of Lima. A questionnaire validated by expert judgement and with a reliability of Cronbach α > 0,96 was applied as a tool. The results show that the company supports less privileged communities in health and nutrition campaigns through voluntary collaborators of corporate social responsibility programmes that contribute to environmental care. In conclusion, there is a significant relationship between the variables studied; however, the insurance company's senior management is aware that there is still a need to work on knowledge management and strategies to involve its partners and providers in social responsibility work in times of pandemic, allowing for higher levels of competition. ; Resumen Para ser sostenible en el tiempo, la responsabilidad social empresarial debe incidir en su entorno y sus colaboradores en tiempos de incertidumbre.

In this volume, scholars of pre-modern Europe and the Arab world examine the issues of incarceration and slavery. The emphasis rests on religious, literary, philosophical, and historical narratives, buttressed by art-historical evidence, all of which demonstrates the true importance of these painful problems.
