Las estrategias en el lugar de trabajo del Partido Comunista en Argentina desde sus orígenes hasta 1943 : Células, comités de fábricas y comisiones internas

La intención de nuestro trabajo es recuperar la experiencia impulsada por el Partido Comunista (PC) a partir de su creación y hasta la irrupción del peronismo en la organización del movimiento obrero en los sitios de producción. Durante años la creencia extendida en la historiografía asociaba la militancia en los espacios de base con el modelo sindical peronista y la instalación de las comisiones internas. Recientes investigaciones demostraron el extenso entramado organizacional de base generado por el proletariado fabril en las décadas anteriores a 1943. En dicho proceso coadyuvaron las corrientes de izquierda y en particular el PC que enarboló una política específica para su inserción en las fábricas y empresas. Los ejes que guían nuestra pesquisa son variados: las formas que adquirió esta militancia de base, el impacto de las líneas estratégicas partidarias, entre otros.

El sector industrial en Jujuy : Un análisis desde la teoría de la localización y la problemática del medio ambiente

La estructura productiva de Jujuy en los últimos cincuenta años se ha caracterizado por la transición desde una economía centrada en la producción primaria (predominante hasta comienzos de la década de 1960) hacia otra con preeminencia creciente del sector terciario (desde mediados de la década de 1970 hasta la actualidad). El sector secundario nunca llegó a ser el más importante en el contexto económico provincial. Sin embargo, en una desagregación mayor, es la industria uno de los sectores que más aporta al producto bruto geográfico en los últimos quince años, con la particularidad de encontrarse concentrada en unas pocas localidades de la provincia. En ese marco, el presente trabajo se propone comprender la ubicación de las industrias en el territorio jujeño a partir de las teorías de la localización, con un análisis particular del caso de Palpalá (por su diseño de parques industriales destinado a aprovechar las economías de escala) y de la problemática ambiental generada por el sector. Se pretende responder a algunos de los siguientes interrogantes: ¿Qué criterios fueron tomados en cuenta para decidir la ubicación de cada fábrica? ¿Cómo incidieron los cambios políticos en la radicación industrial en territorio jujeño? ¿Qué reconversiones se fueron logrando a partir de una industria básica como la siderúrgica? ¿Cómo fue resolviéndose la demanda de bienes finales e intermedios ante el crecimiento poblacional y la inserción/reinserción de la mano de obra? ¿Qué vinculaciones se observan entre la provincia y la región desde el punto de vista de la ocupación del espacio económico? ¿Qué problemas sobre los recursos naturales suscita la industrialización? ¿Cómo responden el Estado y la actividad privada en la prevención y solución de los inconvenientes ambientales? El análisis se realiza sobre la base de la transferencia de teoría a la situación real, entrevistas a informantes especializados y relevamiento de información en organismos estatales (para interiorizarse de aspectos político/económicos), interpretándose luego de modo interdisciplinar los datos relevados. Las respuestas a los distintos interrogantes van elaborándose a medida que se encuentran las relaciones entre las razones que la historia reciente registra y la respuesta social y productiva de los actores económicos de la provincia. En ese sentido, entre las conclusiones se destaca la escasez de aportes foráneos en la construcción del sector industrial local, la necesidad de políticas que incentiven al sector manufacturero a nivel regional, así como la importancia de que se desplieguen acciones con respecto al control de la contaminación, su prevención y la restauración de recursos naturales: agua, suelo, atmósfera y biomas

Reformas laborales y movilización sindical en los años noventa en Argentina : El caso del sindicato automotriz

Este artículo trata de las relaciones entre las reformas neoliberales y la movilización sindical en los años noventa en la Argentina. ¿Hasta qué punto los sindicatos y los trabajadores aprobaron el neoliberalismo y las reformas económicas? ¿Cómo afectaron estos cambios sus capacidades organizativas? Nuestra hipótesis es que a pesar de los costos que trajeron sobre los asalariados, los sindicatos mantuvieron su organización no solo mediante negociaciones por recursos financieros sino también a través de la capacidad de movilización en las grandes fábricas. Estas negociaciones sucedieron luego de oponerse contra los efectos de tales políticas en la primera parte de la década, aunque no contra su política global. Realizamos un estudio de caso basado en el sector automotriz con enfoque en algunas fábricas terminales. Asimismo intentamos hacer una contribución crítica respecto de la bibliografía especializada en las relaciones laborales en la Argentina en la era neoliberal

La moda neoliberal : El retorno de los talleres clandestinos de costura

En este artículo se analiza el resurgimiento de talleres de costura clandestinos en grandes ciudades del centro y la periferia mundial, para entender los cambios dados en la industria de la moda durante las últimas cuatro décadas y sus consecuencias sobre los trabajadores. Para ello se realizaron dos estudios de caso: uno en la ciudad de Buenos Aires y otro en la provincia de Prato (Italia). Los resultados de esta investigación demuestran que este sector fue pionero en los procesos de reorganización industrial en la época neoliberal. En ambos estudios de caso, el cierre de fábricas y la utilización masiva de subcontratación a talleres urbanos informales tuvieron como consecuencias una significativa concentración de capital por un lado, y un marcado deterioro de las condiciones de trabajo por el otro. De hecho, la existencia de trata de personas y reducción a la servidumbre de miles de trabajadores inmigrantes es fundamental para el funcionamiento de esta industria

Uma história da grave das tecelâs/ôes de Salvador-Bahia en setembro de 1919

This article aims to analyze the movement of weavers' strike (according to an specific context), its origins, actions and consequences, prompting the internal system of factories (their regulations), the hierarchical relationships of power, and struggles to guarantee the right of association, which resulted in the stoppage of all activities of the textile sector. The attitude to go on a strike, mobilizations and the stroll show that the direction of the movement and the working class were aware of their actions and those likely consequences, what signalize, beforehand, the ideological, classist and political character of women´s actions: radicalized by the practices of confronting the authoritarianism employers and threats (police repression, harassment of the press). They endured through the collective support and a network of solidarity

How did the crisis affect small and medium-sized enterprises? -- from a field study of the metal-working industry in Java

This paper focuses on the impact of Indonesia's economic crisis on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It shows how the performance of SMEs during the crisis varied widely even in the same industrial subsector, and found that the factors most affecting performance have been market orientation and the linkages that the SMEs have formed with the buyers of their products. Well-performing SMEs were found to have utilized putting-out linkages with wholesalers which enabled them to switch to products having better markets. On the other hand, the SMEs which had subcontracting linkages with assemblers or contracting linkages with user-factories (with the exception of SMEs having export-oriented linkages) suffered badly in the crisis because of specificity of products with little room for switching. The paper also found that exposure to debt due to borrowing for investment has been another factor affecting performance, but that enterprise size has had no linear correlation with performance.

Myanmar Sugar SMEs: History, Technology, Location and Government Policy

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) engaged in sugar processing in Myanmar appeared in the last decade of the socialist era. An acute sugar deficit, restricted trade in white sugar, and high demand from the conventional dairy business led to the growth of sugar SMEs by appropriate blending of semi-finished products (syrup) in the fields, which were then processed in vacuum pans and centrifugals to obtain white sugar. This became a tradable commodity and sugar SMEs grew in clusters in big cities. They are family-owned businesses. However, they lack the bagasse-based power generation. In recent years, large modern sugar factories operated by private and military companies have emerged as key players. The current shortage of fuel feedstock and competition for raw materials have become driving forces that shift sugar SMEs from market-oriented to raw material-oriented locations. Internal competition among key players made sugar price highly volatile, too. Being placed on a level playing field, the whole industry should be upgraded in terms of price and quality to become export-oriented.

What motivates female operators to enter the garment industry in Pakistan in the post-MFA period?

Pakistan's knitwear exports had been struggling since the quota phase-out until 2009. A particular feature of Pakistan's garment industry is that hiring more male sewing operators at piece rates. Recently, a few surviving knitwear factories have adopted a strategy of shifting from male piece-rate operators to salaried female operators. In Pakistan, female participation in general workforce is very limited and hiring salaried female operators requires management effort and expertise. However, even in the factories with such management skills, household factors prevent females from working outside because Pakistani culture disrespects women working in factories. Our survey reveals that financial motives compel female household members to work outside their homes and that female operators contribute substantially to their households' finances.

Political crisis and suspension of duty-free access in Madagascar : assessment of impacts on the garment industry

The export-oriented garment industry in Madagascar has displayed robust growth, thus both contributing to the economy and creating formal employment opportunities. However, it experienced a critical situation after the political turmoil that occurred in 2009. Our investigation using the trade data demonstrates that suspension of duty-free access to the US market (AGOA) resulting from the turmoil had a greater impact on exports, 64%–78% reduction, than the turmoil itself. Our original factory-level data demonstrates that AGOA suspension increased the probability of closure by 57.8% for the factories supplying exclusively to US market, and reduced 6405 jobs for low-skilled positions during the post turmoil period. The factory-level adverse impacts are much less than those on export value at the industry level because of the maintained duty-free access to EU, which has provided an alternative market. It suggests that if EU also had cancelled duty-free access, adverse impacts would have been enormous. Given the general pattern of comparative advantage in low-income countries, unplanned cancellation of duty-free access for them hurts labor-intensive industries and low-skilled workers.

Did Japanese direct investment in Korea suppress indigenous industrialization in the 1930s? : evidence from country-level factory entry patterns

Foreign direct investment (FDI) can deliver both positive and negative spillovers to the local economy. Negative effects such as crowding-out or entry-barrier effects might outweigh the positive ones when the technological gap between foreign and local firms is significant. This paper examines the impact of Japanese direct investment into Korea under colonization in the 1930s on the entry of Korean-owned factories. By using the census of manufacturing factories in Korea, we exploit variations in the share of Japanese factories and their entry rates across counties within the same subsectors. We find that within a subsector, entry rates of Korean factories were higher in counties with higher presence and entry of Japanese factories. Positive correlations are also found between subsectors. The results imply that Japanese direct investment did not suppress the entry of Korean factories and that FDI could exert positive entry spillovers on indigenous firms, even at a very early stage of industrialization.

News in engineering education in Spain effective from 2010 in presence of external changes and mixed crisis, looking mostly to agro and civil engineers.

The engineering careers models were diverse in Europe, and are adopting now in Spain the Bolonia process for European Universities. Separated from older Universities, that are in part technically active, Civil Engineering (Caminos, Canales y Puertos) started at end of 18th century in Spain adopting the French models of Upper Schools for state civil servants with exam at entry. After 1800 intense wars, to conserve forest regions Ingenieros de Montes appeared as Upper School, and in 1855 also the Ingenieros Agrónomos to push up related techniques and practices. Other Engineers appeared as Upper Schools but more towards private factories. These ES got all adapted Lower Schools of Ingeniero Tecnico. Recently both grew much in number and evolved, linked also to recognized Professions. Spanish society, into European Community, evolved across year 2000, in part highly well, but with severe discordances, that caused severe youth unemployment with 2008-2011 crisis. With Bolonia process high formal changes step in from 2010-11, accepted with intense adaptation. The Lower Schools are changing towards the Upper Schools, and both that have shifted since 2010-11 various 4-years careers (Grado), some included into the precedent Professions, and diverse Masters. Acceptation of them to get students has started relatively well, and will evolve, and acceptation of new grades for employment in Spain, Europe or outside will be essential. Each Grado has now quite rigid curricula and programs, MOODLE was introduced to connect pupils, some specific uses of Personal Computers are taught in each subject. Escuela de Agronomos centre, reorganized with its old name in its precedent buildings at entrance of Campus Moncloa, offers Grados of Agronomic Engineering and Science for various public and private activities for agriculture, Alimentary Engineering for alimentary activities and control, Agro-Environmental Engineering more related to environment activities, and in part Biotechnology also in laboratories in Campus Monte-Gancedo for Biotechnology of Plants and Computational Biotechnology. Curricula include Basics, Engineering, Practices, Visits, English, ?project of end of career?, Stays. Some masters will conduce to specific professional diploma, list includes now Agro-Engineering, Agro-Forestal Biotechnology, Agro and Natural Resources Economy, Complex Physical Systems, Gardening and Landscaping, Rural Genie, Phytogenetic Resources, Plant Genetic Resources, Environmental Technology for Sustainable Agriculture, Technology for Human Development and Cooperation.

The Interior City Infinity and Concavity in the No-Stop City (1970-1971)

In the late 60s it had become clear how the environment technification had allowed some typologies (supermarkets, car parks, factories) to reach potentially unlimited built depths becoming, therefore, independent from the outside. The No-Stop City is born from a very simple idea: to extend this technification to the totality of built reality encompassing, not only almost all functions, but ultimately, the whole city. This operation has paradoxical effects: as architecture grows, it loses most of the features that have traditionally defined it. A dissolution by hypertrophy that gives rise to an homogeneous, concave and potentially infinite space. But beyond the pure technical feasibility, there are two key influences, seemingly contradictory, that explain this endeavor for an interior and endless city: Marxism and Pop Art. The project is, in many senses, a built manifesto reflecting the militancy of the group members within the Italian Marxism. But it is also the embodiment of the groups declared interest in Pop Art, popular culture and mass society. The cross-influence of communism and consumerism explains this "quantitative utopia" in which the society and the factory, the production and consumption, would match. A city based on the centrality of consumer products and the subsequent loss of prominence of architecture, in which the urban phenomenon, while spreading endlessly over territory, ignoring its rural exteriority, dissolves the home as a sphere of privacy, ignoring its domestic interiority. A project, also in the wake of Marshall McLuhan, that illustrates like few others the conversion of the urbane into a virtually omnipresent "condition" and that still interrogates us with questions that are, on the other hand, eternal: What is a building? What is a city?

Repercusión medioambiental del uso de la cerámica estructural en España. Energía embebida y huella de carbono

La producción y el transporte a obra de los productos cerámicos de carácter estructural suponen un importante consumo energético, que conlleva la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero a la atmósfera. El objetivo de la presente Tesis es demostrar la existencia de importantes diferencias en el valor del impacto ambiental asociado a los productos de cerámica estructural fabricados en España, y que estas diferencias podrían quedar cuantificadas y reflejadas mediante un análisis de Huella de Carbono y de la Energía Embebida. Se parte de la inexistencia en España, de base de datos contrastada y consensuada, que establezca las cargas medioambientales en función del tipo de producto cerámico a utilizar. Se realiza en la primera parte del estudio una revisión del estado actual de la Huella de Carbono y la Energía Embebida en el campo de los materiales de construcción, y más concretamente en el sector de la cerámica estructural, que sirve para acotar los límites del estudio y justificar el objeto de la Tesis. La investigación se acota a las etapas de producción y transporte a obra de los productos (estudio cuna a puerta con opciones), al considerar que son éstas, a priori, las que tienen una mayor incidencia en el comportamiento ambiental del producto. Siguiendo los pasos definidos en la normativa aplicable (definición del mapa de procesos – límites y alcance – inventario – cálculo y evaluación), se establece un método específico de identificación y cuantificación de las variables que determinan la Huella de Carbono y Energía Embebida de los productos cerámicos, en función de la tipología de producto. La información necesaria (inventario) se obtiene principalmente con recogida de datos “in situ” de fábricas de productos cerámicos, lo que garantiza que la información tratada en este estudio es de primer nivel. La información se complementa/contrasta con fuentes bibliográficas. Se determinan 6 variables con influencia global en el impacto ambiental, 44 variables principales y 39 secundarias, estableciendo las fórmulas de cálculo a partir de dichas variables. Los resultados de cálculo y evaluación determinan que, para unas mismas condiciones de fabricación, las diferencias entre productos cerámicos llegan hasta un 27% para la Huella de Carbono y un 35% para Energía Embebida. La relevancia que alcanza el impacto asociado al transporte del producto a obra puede llegar hasta un 40% del total. El método de cálculo y las fórmulas desarrolladas se integran en una hoja de cálculo, para el cálculo de Huella de Carbono y Energía Embebida de los productos cerámicos, que permite, a su vez, conocer la repercusión medioambiental que tiene la introducción de modificaciones o innovaciones en el proceso de producción o transporte a obra. Así mismo, el trabajo desarrollado ha servido para poner en relieve una serie de problemas y falta de información en el campo de la cerámica estructural y el medioambiente que pueden ser objeto de futuras líneas de investigación, tanto para el sector de la edificación como para la comunidad científica, pudiendo implementar la metodología desarrollada en otras investigaciones. Se considera que la investigación realizada y sus resultados suponen una aportación importante para conocer y reducir el impacto ambiental de los edificios, desde la perspectiva del ciclo de vida y considerando que el impacto ambiental de un edificio comienza desde el momento en que se extraen las materias primas para la fabricación de los materiales con los que se construyen los edificios. ABSTRACT The production and transport of structural ceramic products involves an important energy consumption, which leads to the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The objective of the research is to demonstrate the existence of significant differences in the value of the environmental impact of structural ceramic products manufactured in Spain, and these differences could be quantified by the Carbon Footprint and Embodied Energy. It starts from the absence in Spain, of contrasted and agreed databases that establish the environmental loads depending on the type of ceramic product. In the first part of the study reviews the current state of the Carbon Footprint and Embedded Energy in the field of building materials, and more specifically in the field of structural ceramics, which serves to limit the scope of the study and justify the purpose of this Thesis. The Research is bounded to production and transportation stages of (cradle to gate with options), considering they are the stages that have a greater impact on the environmental performance of the product. Following the steps defined in applicable rules (definition of process map - boundaries and scope – inventory analysis- calculation and impact assessment), it sets a specific method for the identification and quantification of the variables that determine the Carbon Footprint and Embedded Energy of structural ceramic products, depending on the type of product. The information (inventory) is given mainly with a data collection in ceramic factories (and in a consultation with the manufactures of the products), ensuring that the information handled in this Thesis is a first rate data. It is established 6 variables with a global influence in the environmental impact, 44 primary and 39 secondary variables, establishing calculation formula from these variables. The results of calculation and assessment determined that, for same manufacturing conditions, the differences between ceramic products reach 27% for Carbon Footprint and 35% for Embodied Energy. The relevance that reaches the impact of transport can reach 40% of the total. The method of calculation and formulas developed are integrated into a simple calculation tool, excel base, to calculate the Carbon Footprint and Embodied Energy of structural ceramic products, which allows, know the environmental impact of changes or innovations in the production process or transport to work. The work also has served to find a problems and gaps in the field of structural ceramics and the environment that may well be the subject of future research, both for the building sector to the scientific community, implementing the methodology developed in other research. It is considered that the research and its results represent an important contribution to understand and reduce the environmental impact of buildings from the perspective of the life cycle, considering that the environmental impact of a building starts from the time that the raw materials are extracted for the manufacture of building materials.

Desarrollo de un sistema automático de medida para el control del consumo en sistemas empotrados

El Grupo de Diseño Electrónico y Microelectrónico de la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid -GDEM- se dedica, entre otras cosas, al estudio y mejora del consumo en sistemas empotrados. Es en este lugar y sobre este tema donde el proyecto a exponer ha tomado forma y desarrollo. Según un artículo de la revista online Revista de Electrónica Embebida, un sistema empotrado o embebido es aquel “sistema controlado por un microprocesador y que gracias a la programación que incorpora o que se le debe incorporar, realiza una función específica para la que ha sido diseñado, integrando en su interior la mayoría de los elementos necesarios para realizar dicho función”. El porqué de estudiar sobre este tema responde a que, cada vez, hay mayor presencia de sistemas empotrados en nuestra vida cotidiana. Esto es debido a que se está tendiendo a dotar de “inteligencia” a todo lo que puedan hacer nuestra vida un poco más fácil. Nos podemos encontrar dichos sistemas en fábricas, oficinas de atención a los ciudadanos, sistemas de seguridad de hogar, relojes, móviles, lavadoras, hornos, aspiradores y un largo etcétera en cualquier aparato que nos podamos imaginar. A pesar de sus grandes ventajas, aún hay grandes inconvenientes. El mayor problema que supone a día de hoy es la autonomía del mismo sistema, ya que hablamos de aparatos que muchas veces están alimentados por baterías -para ayudar a su portabilidad–. Por esto, se está intentando dotar a dichos sistemas de una capacidad de ahorro de energía y toma de decisiones que podrían ayudar a duplicar la autonomía de dicha batería. Un ejemplo claro son los Smartphones de hoy en día, unos aparatos casi indispensables que pueden tener una autonomía de un día. Esto es poco práctico para el usuario en caso de viajes, trabajo u otras situaciones en las que se le dé mucho uso y no pueda tener acceso a una red eléctrica. Es por esto que surge la necesidad de investigar, sin necesidad de mejorar el hardware del sistema, una manera de mejorar esta situación. Este proyecto trabajará en esa línea creando un sistema automático de medida el cual generará las corrientes que servirán como entrada para verificar el sistema de adquisición que junto con la tarjeta Beagle Board permitirá la toma de decisiones en relación con el consumo de energía. Para realizar este sistema, nos ayudaremos de diferentes herramientas que podremos encontrar en el laboratorio del GDEM, como la fuente de alimentación Agilent y la Beagle Board –como principales herramientas de trabajo- . El objetivo principal será la simulación de unas señales que, después de pasar un proceso de conversión y tratado, harán la función de representación del consumo de cada una de las partes que pueden formar un sistema empotrado genérico. Por lo tanto, podemos decir que el sistema hará la funcionalidad de un banco de pruebas que ayudará a simular dicho consumo para que el microprocesador del sistema pueda llegar a tomar alguna decisión. ABSTRACT. The Electronic and Microelectronic Design Group of Universidad Politécnica de Madrid -GDEM- is in charge, between other issues, of improving the embedded system’s consumption. It is in this place and about this subject where the exposed project has taken shape and development. According to an article from de online magazine Revista de Electronica Embebida, an embedded system is “the one controlled by a microprocessor and, thanks to the programing that it includes, it carries out a specific function what it has been designed for, being integrated in it the most necessary elements for realizing the already said function”. The because of studying this subject, answers that each time there is more presence of the embedded system in our daily life. This is due to the tendency of providing “intelligence” to all what can make our lives easier. We can find this kind of systems in factories, offices, security systems, watchers, mobile phones, washing machines, ovens, hoovers and, definitely, in all kind of machines what we can think of. Despite its large vantages, there are still some inconveniences. Nowadays, the most important problem is the autonomy of the system itself when machines that have to be supplied by batteries –making easier the portability-. Therefore, this project is going after a save capacity of energy for the system as well as being able to take decisions in order to duplicate batteries’ autonomy. Smartphones are a clear example. They are a very successful product but the autonomy is just one day. This is not practical for users, at all, if they have to travel, to work or to do any activity that involves a huge use of the phone without a socket nearby. That is why the need of investigating a way to improve this situation. This project is working on this line, creating an automatic system that will generate the currents for verifying the acquisition system that, with the beagle board, will help taking decisions regarding the energy’s consumption. To carry out this system, we need different tools that we can find in the laboratory of the group previously mentioned, like power supply Agilent and the Beagle Board – as main working tools –. The main goal is the simulation of some signals that, after a conversion process, will represent de consumption of each of the parts in the embedded generic system. Therefore, the system will be a testing ground that simulate the consumption, once sent to the processor, to be processed and so the microprocessor system might take some decision.

Evolution and implementation of CDIO initiatives at ETSII-UPM

The School of Industrial Engineering at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (ETSII-UPM) has been promoting student-centred teaching-learning activities, according to the aims of the Bologna Declaration, well before the official establishment of the European Area of Higher Education. Such student-centred teaching-learning experiences led us to the conviction that project based learning is rewarding, both for students and academics, and should be additionally promoted in our new engineering programmes, adapted to the Grade-Master structure. The level of commitment of our teachers with these activities is noteworthy, as the teaching innovation experiences carried out in the last ten years have led to the foundation of 17 Teaching Innovation Groups at ETSII-UPM, hence leading the ranking of teaching innovation among all UPM centres. Among interesting CDIO activities our students have taken part in especially complex projects, including the Formula Student, linked to the complete development of a competition car, and the Cybertech competition, aimed at the design, construction and operation of robots for different purposes. Additional project-based learning teamwork activities have been linked to toy design, to the development of medical devices, to the implementation of virtual laboratories, to the design of complete industrial installations and factories, among other activities detailed in present study. The implementation of Bologna process will culminate at ETSII-UPM with the beginning of the Master’s Degree in Industrial Engineering, in academic year 2014-15. The program has been successfully approved by the Spanish Agency for Accreditation (ANECA), with the inclusion of a set of subjects based upon the CDIO methodology denominated generally “INGENIA”, linked to the Spanish “ingeniar” (to provide ingenious solutions), also related etymologically in Spanish with “ingeniero”, engineer. INGENIA students will live through the complete development process of a complex product or system and there will be different kind of projects covering most of the engineering majors at ETSII-UPM.
