Las políticas culturales de la Dirección General de Bibliotecas bonaerense (1946-1952)

En la presente tesina abordamos las políticas culturales llevadas a cabo por la Dirección General de Bibliotecas de la Provincia de Buenos Aires (Argentina) en lo concerniente a la actividad bibliotecológica entre 1946 y 1952. Planteamos el desarrollo del trabajo sobre cuatro ejes principales: bibliotecas, bibliotecarios, lectores y libros. En primer lugar, presentamos un panorama general de la situación político-social de la época. Luego, analizamos los intereses de las bibliotecas bonaerenses a través de la participación de sus representantes en el Primer Congreso Provincial de Bibliotecas Populares (1949) e indagamos en qué condiciones se originó la Biblioteca Pública Central y su rol en la profesionalización de los bibliotecarios. En este sentido, valoramos la institucionalización de la formación bibliotecaria mediante la creación de la Escuela de Bibliotecología y desarrollamos qué contenidos se plantearon en los primeros planes de estudios de las carreras. Del mismo modo, examinamos qué concepción tenía la Dirección General de los lectores y de sus lecturas, específicamente las de los niños, las mujeres y los obreros. Para finalizar, consideramos la implementación de las políticas culturales en torno a la difusión y la circulación de libros, especialmente de los editados en Argentina y en otros países del continente americano

Transforming a provincial city: The Pilbeam Mayoralty in Rockhampton 1952-1982

Rockhampton City'S colourful and controversial Alderman Rex Pilbeam, qualified public accountant and secretary, longest-serving mayor (1952-82) of any Australian city, took office when Rockhampton was burdened with heavy municipal debt, poor quality roads, costly water supply, little sewerage, and few recreational faCilities. However, Pi/beam's vision, single-minded devotion, unflagging energy, political skill, and managerial flair brought a dramatic turnaround in the city's fortunes. Continuing after retirement with voluntary community service until his mid-eighties, the Pi/beam legacy 10 RockhamplOn is everywhere in evidence.

Fear and U.S. foreign policy during the Truman administration, 1945-1952

The purpose of this study was to investigate how the Truman administration used fear to generate popular support for its Cold War foreign policies. Three issues were examined through the use of published government documents, personal memoirs, and weekly periodicals to assess the responses of the American public: the enactment of universal military training (UMT), the Soviet detonation of an atomic device, and the Truman administration's decision to build the hydrogen bomb. This study shows that the changing attitudes in the Truman administration toward the Soviet Union occurred in a climate of fear. Through press releases and by exerting influence on the media, the administration attempted to control the information the public received. Through the use of propaganda, the Truman administration pursued the implementation of UMT, generated fear of the Soviet Union after its detonation of the atomic bomb, and gained relative public support for the decision to build the hydrogen bomb.

Standardized geo-referenced catch, fishing effort and length-frequency data for the Indian Ocean Bigeye Tuna, Thunnus obesus (1952-2014)

Geo-referenced catch and fishing effort data of the bigeye tuna fisheries in the Indian Ocean over 1952-2014 were analysed and standardized to facilitate population dynamics modelling studies. During this sixty-two years historical period of exploitation, many changes occurred both in the fishing techniques and the monitoring of activity. This study includes a series of processing steps used for standardization of spatial resolution, conversion and standardization of catch and effort units, raising of geo-referenced catch into nominal catch level, screening and correction of outliers, and detection of major catchability changes over long time series of fishing data, i.e., the Japanese longline fleet operating in the tropical Indian Ocean. A total of thirty fisheries were finally determined from longline, purse seine and other-gears data sets, from which 10 longline and four purse seine fisheries represented 96% of the whole historical catch. The geo-referenced records consists of catch, fishing effort and associated length frequency samples of all fisheries.
