Epístolas Sacrílegas. Las declaraciones públicas de líderes evangélicos chilenos ante el gobierno militar de Pinochet (1974 y 1986)

Resumen La relación establecida entre el mundo evangélico y la dictadura militar chilena es uno de los episodios más significativos de la historia política y religiosa reciente en Chile. Si bien este fenómeno ha sido investigado tanto por las ciencias sociales como por la teología, sus posturas han tendido a desarrollarse de manera desvinculada, ofreciendo una imagen parcelada de la problemática. El presente artículo intenta ser un aporte en este ámbito específico, para lo cual se ha fijado un objetivo concreto: analizar los elementos ideológicos y políticos distintivos de las declaraciones públicas realizadas por el mundo evangélico ante el gobierno militar, vinculándolas con los contextos ideológicos en los cuales se emitieron estas declaraciones. Para ello, metodológicamente se han analizado dos declaraciones fundamentales realizadas por los líderes y pastores evangélicos ante el régimen militar chileno (fuentes primarias), lo cual permitirá complejizar la imagen que se posee sobre la relación entre el mundo evangélico y la dictadura militar chilena.

Operation Attilas första skede : De turkiska operationerna på Cypern i juli 1974.

Avhandlingen berör de turkiska operationerna på Cypern, som inleddes den 20 juli 1974 till följd av att den cypriotiska presidenten Makarios avsatts i en statskupp. Avhandlingen behandlar de turkiska förbandens stridsverksamhet under tiden 20.- 31.7.1974 med tyngdpunkt vid de tre första dagarna. Operation Attila genomfördes med trupper från alla försvarsgrenar, men huvudansvaret låg hos armén. Den turkiska fredsstyrkan, som utgjordes av den 6. armékåren hade en total styrka på ungefär 16000 man under operationens första skede. Den huvudsakliga forskningsfrågan lyder, hur genomförde Turkiet Operation Attilas första skede? Övriga forskningsfrågor som stöder huvudfrågan är: Av vilka förband var den turkiska fredsstyrkan sammansatt och hur såg dessa förband ut? Vilken roll spelade den turkiska marinen och det turkiska flygvapnet i operationen? Vilka var de turkiska truppernas största taktiska och stridstekniska problem under operationen? Vilka faktorer bidrog till att Turkiet lyckades med Operation Attila? Forskningen baserar sig på skriven litteratur i form av böcker, skriftliga utkast och artiklar. Som forskningsmetod används en kvalitativ litteraturanalys där ovan nämnda forskningsfrågor besvaras. De turkiska förbanden lyckades genomföra Operation Attilas första skede, men de nådde inte sina uppsatta militära mål förrän flera dagar senare än planerat. Turkarnas försening berodde mera på egen inkompetens än kraftigt motstånd från den grekcypriotiska krigsmakten, CNG.

A industrialização da pauta de exportação brasileira entre 1964 e 1974: novos dados e índices para o comércio exterior brasileiro do período

This paper analyses the effects on Brazil's trade indices of the rising share of industrial products in Brazil's exports in the period from 1964 to 1974. New price and quantity indices of Fisher for Brazil's exports and imports of industrial and non-industrial goods have been especially constructed for this period, in order to obtain methodologically consistent series of indexes from 1964 to 2005. The market-share-constant model was applied to analyze the effects of different groups of products on Brazil's export revenues between 1964 and 1974.

Decision-making theory applied to India's explosion of a nuclear device in May, 1974

This essay reviews the decision-making process that led to India exploding a nuclear device in May, 1974. An examination of the Analytic, Cybernetic and Cognitive Theories of decision, will enable a greater understanding of the events that led up to the 1974 test. While each theory is seen to be only partially useful, it is only by synthesising the three theories that a comprehensive account of the 1974 test can be given. To achieve this analysis, literature on decision-making in national security issues is reviewed, as well as the domestic and international environment in which involved decisionmakers operated. Finally, the rationale for the test in 1974 is examined. The conclusion revealed is that the explosion of a nuclear device by India in 1974 was primarily related to improving Indian international prestige among Third World countries and uniting a rapidly disintegrating Indian societal consensus. In themselves, individual decision-making theories were found to be of little use, but a combination of the various elements allowed a greater comprehension of the events leading up to the test than might otherwise have been the case.

A study of selected factors influencing the reproductive performance of the common tern (Sterna hirundo) at Port Colborne, Ontario in 1973 and 1974

Several study areas were investigated at two Port Colborne terneries during the summers of 1973 and 1974 in an attempt to determine the influence of clutch size, time of clutch initiation, position in the colony, proximity to Ring-billed Gulls, vegetation and nesting substrate on the reproductive performance of the Common Tern. Hatching success and reproductive success (the number of chicks fledged per egg laid) were generally higher for 3-egg than 2-egg clutches but fledging (the number of chicks fledged per egg hatched) success was usually independant of clutch size. Hatching, fledging and reproductive success declined as a function of time of clutch initiation. Mean clutch sizes also generally declined as a function of time. Nests located in the center of the colony exhibited higher fledging success than those on the periphery. Rock-based clutches had a lower hatching success than clutches initiated on sand or dried vegetation. Reproductive performance did not appear to be related to proximity to Ring-billed Gulls or vegetation within the study area.
