Ex Ante Cost Benefit Analyses of Community-Based DRR Interventions in the Caribbean

This report presents a study on the cost benefit analyses (CBA) and cost effectiveness analysis (CEA) of community-based disaster risk reduction (DRR) interventions in the Caribbean. The DRR interventions, implemented by the International Federation of Red Cross (IFRC), Port of Spain, in three Caribbean countries, Jamaica, Antigua & Barbuda, and Suriname, comprised the pilot phase of the Red Cross (RC) Project, Improving Climate Change Resilience of Caribbean Communities. This study is part of the endeavor by the DRR Program of Florida International University (FIU) and the United States Agency for International Development’s Office of the U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (USAID/OFDA) to develop and foster DRR measures in the Latin American and Caribbean region since 2008.

Responsabilidad social y debate artístico en el día de hoy. Los artistas enfrentados al conflicto armado en la antigua Yugoslavia (1989-2008)

This dissertation is concerned with a period unfortunate for the citizens of former Yugoslavia, but influential for its artists, who used their feeling of responsibility to leave valuable testimonies about their time. The research began in 2007 for the purposes of obtaining an advanced academic degree and was entitled Responsibility of the Artist Facing Social Conflicts: the Case of Yugoslavia (1989–2003). A part of it was presented in 2008, at the Women’s Worlds Congress held at Complutense University in Madrid (in cooperation with my mentor Dolores Fernández Martínez). This dissertation implied a broader scope of research on the topic of Social Responsibility and Artistic Debate Today. Artists in the Face of Armed Conflict in Former Yugoslavia (1989–2008), thus aiming to study the case of Serbian visual artists under Milosevic (1989–2000) and later, during the democratization of the Serbian society. The period in focus ends in 2008, except for the works in the group Monument where it stretches up to 2012.

"¡Andá a hilar la lana!" : La construcción del ideal femenino en los fragmentos 618-9 y 681 M de Lucilio a la luz de los intertextos

En la Antigua Roma las mujeres casadas no gozaban de ningún tipo de libertades y todos los placeres les eran vedados a su clase (Rousselle, 2000). Responsables de la gestación de los futuros ciudadanos, su esfera de acción se limitaba al hogar, donde, además de procurarles especial atención a sus maridos e hijos, estaban encargadas de realizar, entre otras tareas, el control de la servidumbre, la administración de los gastos y el tejido (Knapp, 2011). A diferencia de las mujeres de otras clases, prostitutas y esclavas, la conducta de las matronas debía estar regida por la castidad, la reserva, la modestia y la pietas, principales virtudes celebradas en las fuentes epigráficas (CIL 6.23773, 8.11294). Como consecuencia de la corrupción de las costumbres durante la República, Augusto sancionó una serie de leyes (Lex Iulia de maritandis ordinibus y de adulteriis coercendis en 18 a.C., Lex Papia Poppaea en 9 d.C.) que, basándose en la tradición de los antepasados, estaban destinadas a ejercer un fuerte dominio sobre las políticas familiares. Se obligaba a los estratos superiores de la sociedad a contraer uniones legítimas y a tener descendencia, y se sancionaba con severidad a aquellas mujeres que cometían adulterio y que no se ajustaban al modelo femenino que el Estado buscaba imponer (Pomeroy, 1999). Bajo la luz de estas consideraciones acerca de la matrona, nos proponemos ofrecer una lectura posible de los fragmentos 618-9 y 681 M del poeta satírico Lucilio, conservados únicamente por transmisión indirecta. Así pues, a partir de información recabada del contexto social y político, intentamos demostrar que en el horizonte del pensamiento romano se mantiene constante un único ideal de mujer, al mismo tiempo que, a partir de referencias intertextuales, logramos dar sentido(s) a un texto que sólo a simple vista parece no poder decirnos mucho.

Revisiting the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous of the NW South Iberian Basin: new ages and sedimentary environments

The study of the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous deposits (Higueruelas, Villar del Arzobispo and Aldea de Cortés Formations) of the South Iberian Basin (NW Valencia, Spain) reveals new stratigraphic and sedimentological data, which have significant implications on the stratigraphic framework, depositional environments and age of these units. The Higueruelas Fm was deposited in a mid-inner carbonate platform where oncolitic bars migrated by the action of storms and where oncoid production progressively decreased towards the uppermost part of the unit. The overlying Villar del Arzobispo Fm has been traditionally interpreted as an inner platform-lagoon evolving into a tidal-flat. Here it is interpreted as an inner-carbonate platform affected by storms, where oolitic shoals protected a lagoon, which had siliciclastic inputs from the continent. The Aldea de Cortés Fm has been previously interpreted as a lagoon surrounded by tidal-flats and fluvial-deltaic plains. Here it is reinterpreted as a coastal wetland where siliciclastic muddy deposits interacted with shallow fresh to marine water bodies, aeolian dunes and continental siliciclastic inputs. The contact between the Higueruelas and Villar del Arzobispo Fms, classically defined as gradual, is also interpreted here as rapid. More importantly, the contact between the Villar del Arzobispo and Aldea de Cortés Fms, previously considered as unconformable, is here interpreted as gradual. The presence of Alveosepta in the Villar del Arzobispo Fm suggests that at least part of this unit is Kimmeridgian, unlike the previously assigned Late Tithonian-Middle Berriasian age. Consequently, the underlying Higueruelas Fm, previously considered Tithonian, should not be younger than Kimmeridgian. Accordingly, sedimentation of the Aldea de Cortés Fm, previously considered Valangian-Hauterivian, probably started during the Tithonian and it may be considered part of the regressive trend of the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous cycle. This is consistent with the dinosaur faunas, typically Jurassic, described in the Villar del Arzobispo and Aldea de Cortés Fms.
