Poder político y estrategias sociales-Córdoba: 1900-1950

Las investigaciones de historia política abarcan un campo que la sociedad visualiza como una totalidad provista de sentido y en la cual, en conflictivo proceso de elaboración de normativas de lo participable y compartible, adquiere una forma de vida de la que todos sus miembros toman parte (grupos, individuos, de arriba, de abajo, hombres y mujeres, etc.) En esa construcción continua está la génesis de los problemas contemporáneos, y en el diálogo permanente entre pasado y presente se hacen inteligibles las sociedades. De allí que, acusiados por nuestro presente, proponemos seguir el hilo de las experiencias, tanteos, controversias y conflictos a través de los cuales la sociedad buscó encontrar su forma legítima. Lo hacemos abordando distintos sub-temas del período, para conocer el modo en que los individuos y los grupos, elaborando su comprensión de las situaciones, rechazaron, adhirieron y formularon sus objetivos a partir de los cuales se propusieron estrategias y organizaron sus acciones. Uno de nuestros más ambiciosos objetivos es conformar un equipo integrado con recursos humanos nuevos y en formación participando en una investigación destinada a rescatar el pasado histórico provincial reciente, cuya realidad se impone conocer dado el papel preponderante desempeñado por Córdoba como condicionante del acaecer nacional.

Conscious procreation: neo-malthusianism in southern Europe and Latin America in around 1900

One main concern of Ecological Economics is the balance between human population and natural resources. This is rightly named the Malthusian question because Malthus predicted that human populations, if unchecked, would grow exponentially while agricultural production (and other land-based productions) would be subject to decreasing returns to the labour input. This article shows that over one hundred years ago, there was in Europe and America a successful social movement that called itself Neo-Malthusianism. In contrast to Malthus’ pessimism, it believed that population growth could be stopped among the poor classes by voluntary decisions. Women were entitled to choose the number of children they wanted to have. The movement did not appeal to the State to impose restrictions on population growth. On the contrary, in Southern Europe it was based on "bottom up" activism against governments and the Catholic Church.

Revisão do gênero Seuratia Skrjabin, 1916 e redescrição da espécie Seuratia Shipleyi (Stossich, 1900) Skrjabin, 1916 (Nematoda, Spiruroidea)

Durante a terceira excursão realizada pela Seção de Helmintologia do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, à localidade de Arraial do Cabo, em Cabo Frio, Estado do Rio de Janeiro, em junho de 1963, tivemos a oportunidade de encontrar ao amanhecer do dia 22 um exemplar fêmea de Diomodea melanophris Temm. (Albatroz), pousado no chão, nas proximidades da praia, provàvelmente levado para lá pela forte ventania que ocorrera durante a noite. Ao necropsiarmos essa ave encontramos, localizados mo estômago, alguns nematódeos dos quais um macho e quatro fêmeas pertencentes ao gênero Seuratia Skrjabin, 1916 e devido à sua raridade nas costas brasileiras e ao achado dos parasitos, resolvemos efetuar o reestudo dêsses helmintos, descritos por Stossich, e rever o gênero proposto por Skrjabin.

Public Sector Pay in Finland

This study analyses the forces determining public and private sector pay in Finland. The data used is a 7 per cent sample taken from the Finnish 2001 census. It contains information on 42 680 male workers, of which 8 759 are employed in public and 33 921 in the private sector. The study documents and describes data by education, occupation and industry. We estimate earnings equations for the whole sample as well as for four industries (construction, real estate, transportation and health) that provide an adequate mix of both public and sector workers. The results suggest that the private-public sector pay gap of about one per cent can be accounted for by differences in observable characteristics between the sectors (3.4 per cent) and lower returns from these characteristics (-2.3 per cent). However, the industry-level analysis indicates that the earnings gaps vary across industries, and are negative in some cases. These inter-industry differences in public-private gaps persist even when the usual controls are introduced. This suggests that public sector wage setters need greater local flexibility, which should result in less uniform wages within the public sector.
