The present investigation tries to establish the descriptive profile of the academic stress of the students of the masters in education and to identify which sociodemographic and situational variables play a modulator role. This investigation is based on the Person-Surroundings Research Program and the systemical cognitive model of academic stress. The study can be characterized as transectional, correlational and non experimental. The collection of the information was made through the SISCO inventory of Academic Stress which was applied to 152 students. The main results suggest that 95% of the master students report having felt academic stress a few times but with medium-high intensity. Variables gender, civil state, attending masters and institutional support of the attending masters act as modulators in academic stress.

This document is intended to be read by the Colombian Ministry of Social Protection (former MoH) and includes some recommendations that could be implemented on the aim to increase allocative efficiency, thus improving macroeconomic performance of the Colombian Health System (CHS). It will be conducted as follows: first it will briefly review the background and actual context of the CHS, after this, will mention some related issues that justify a policy intervention on strategic purchasing to promote long run sustainability and hopefully the future attainment of major goals such as universal coverage and quality improvement. After prioritizing the main financial threats to the system, based on findings from literature review from countries that have successfully implemented similar policies, this paper will make some policy recommendations on regards especially to inpatient health care services in Colombia.

The armed conflict in Chiapas began in 1994 after the armed uprising of the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN). Until now the Mexican government do not recognize the existence of an armed conflict there, for what they call inter-ethnic violence that happens in different municipalities in Chiapas. This study aims at demonstrating that, first, the Mexican state of Chiapas has an armed conflict since the mid-nineties, which has intensified and transformed over sixteen years. It is in this transformation that have emerged paramilitary groups seeking to destabilize the state, generating dynamics of appropriation and control of territory through different practices such as forced displacements, selective assassinations and terror spread within populations who are the targets of their attacks (mainly community support of the Zapatista Army of National Liberation). This work studied the "Peace and Justice" paramilitary group operating in different parts of the state of Chiapas, mainly in the Northern Zone. This case-study will look at the changes it has undergone Mexican democracy, which will be analyzed at two points: first, the failure of federal and Chiapas state to allow or endorse the creation of paramilitary groups and not to punish their actions; on the other, the consequences of the actions of such actors in democratic institutions, and democracy itself. Will seek to demonstrate that indeed both the permissiveness of the Mexican state and its complicity has weakened democracy in Mexico, since they are not able to manage conflict so that they do not degenerate into violence.

This study traces the origins of Mexican paramilitary groups and argues that, contrary to what most of the literature on the subject implies, they do not represent a state strategy to thwart leftist groups seeking social change. Rather, they represent battles between groups of national and local-level elites with different visions of democracy and of what constitutes good governance. The polarization inherent in this type of conflict leads local actors to have to side with one faction of elites or the other. The presence of radical leftist groups in recently colonized indigenous areas with scant state presence gives rise to a process of radicalization among local elites. There are multiple factors that explain the emergence of paramilitary groups. Aside from the post Cold War international context, there were national factors like a shift in its focus away from security matters between 1989 and 1993, and presidential policies between 1968 and 1993, that planted the seeds of leftist radicalism in a context of id modernization

Los problemas que enfrenta la oposición parlamentaria en Colombia requieren un enfoque sistémico en su solución que supere la perspectiva tradicional limitada a la discusión de un estatuto. Para una propuesta de reforma política es necesario evaluar los elementos que componen el sistema político, entendiendo que esos elementos están interactuando permanentemente entre ellos, demarcando el escenario de la competencia partidista, y que sus efectos estimulan u obstaculizan el funcionamiento de la oposición. Un contexto político que facilite la oposición parlamentaria y el esquema gobierno–oposición es más apropiado para el funcionamiento de partidos minoritarios y para el tránsito de organizaciones armadas que quieran pasar a la vida civil. Ninguna organización insurgente, a menos que militarmente esté derrotada, querrá desmovilizarse para tener una efímera participación en política.-----The problems faced by parliamentary opposition in Colombia need a systemic approach to go beyond the old outlook whereby all disputes are short-sightedly restricted to one statute. In order to consider a plausible political reform, it is first necessary to properly assess the elements that make up the current political system, under the assumption that they permanently interact with each other and mark out the arena where political parties compete; the effects of such competition either encourage or hinder the opposition’s action. A political context where parliamentary opposition and the government-opposition scheme are fostered is much more appropriate for minority parties and for the transition of armed groups into civil society. No insurgent group (unless militarily defeated) will ever demobilize only to play an ephemeral political role.

El trabajo de grado se desarrollará a partir del análisis del liderazgo y el poder como característica de éste, desde una visión ecológica, lo cual constituye un aspecto de gran importancia en los estudios de administración. Primero, se abordará el significado de liderazgo y la importancia que este representa dentro de las organizaciones, a través de la generación de procesos que llevan a la organización a su evolución y desarrollo. Posteriormente se abordará el tema de poder en relación con la comprensión del efecto que este puede tener sobre las interacciones que se dan entre las personas de la organización. Finalmente, se estudiará también desde la ecología, como el poder ejercido por los líderes puede influir en la forma en que estos agentes, es decir personas, procesos e interacciones, interactúan para movilizar a la organización. De esta forma, se asume el poder como un aspecto importante dentro del estudio del liderazgo, en cuanto éste puede afectar la forma en que las personas son lideradas al interior de la organización.

El objetivo principal de esta monografía es mostrar por qué las minorías musulmanas del subcontinente indio en Inglaterra experimentan una creciente limitación a sus libertades. El primer aspecto del análisis se centrará en las restricciones económicas dadas por la crisis económica mundial, el segundo en la acentuación de la intolerancia contra su identidad y finalmente en la percepción de inseguridad ocasionada por los atentados terroristas del 7/7. Se demuestra que la percepción de minoría religiosa en Inglaterra genera un rechazo, y los grupos extremistas islámicos han provocado que este rechazo se incremente. Se toma como referencia a Martha Nussbaum y Zygmunt Bauman, para afirmar que la forma más factible de acabar con el miedo es por medio del respeto a las diferencias sociales, culturales y religiosas.

El interés de este estudio de caso es analizar el Programa Conjunto de UNFPA y UNICEF sobre MGF/E en Kenia bajo la luz de los postulados poscolonialistas. Partiendo de la idea de que la MGF es una manifestación de las desigualdades de género, se argumenta que el PC reproduce la imagen de la mujer keniana como una víctima del poder masculino. A partir de esta imagen se deslegitima el orden cultural de los grupos que siguen esta tradición, afectando las lógicas de unidad y cohesión de la sociedad. El análisis de este tipo de dinámicas permite comprender mejor los procesos de intervención de las organizaciones internacionales sobre las estructuras sociales de actores frágiles del sistema internacional.
