En el pasado colonial y en el presente revolucionario : los curas párrocos y las parroquias como soportes del cambio político

El período de descomposición del orden colonial y de trabajosa construcción de otro nuevo en clave republicana reconoce un conjunto de dispositivos y prácticas que posibilitaron el cambio político. Determinadas instituciones y agentes soportaron esta transición que supuso desmontar muchas de las antiguas referencias y modelos de acción política, y orientaron la emergencia de nuevas formas de concebir, percibir y relacionarse con el poder. En la persistencia de algunas de estas figuras clave residió la factibilidad de las nuevas repúblicas. En particular, los agentes y las jurisdicciones eclesiásticos, los ritos y celebraciones religiosas permanecieron ocupando un lugar que no puede ignorarse.

Povoações, freguesias e vilas na Paraíba Colonial: Pombal e Sousa, 1697-1800

The towns presently named Pombal and Sousa, located in the hinterland of the State of Paraíba, Brazil, still keep vestiges of the colonization process they went through along the 18th and 19th centuries, when they both emerged as settlement nuclei in the extreme West of the then captaincy of Paraíba and attained the status of freguesia and vila in a later period. This research aims to comprehend the process of urban formation and development of the colonial urban nuclei of Pombal and Sousa as they became povoados (hamlets), freguesias (parishes) and vilas (small urban communities with a local government), according to territorial expansion policies implemented by the Portuguese government from 1697 to 1800. The choice of the two urban settlements for this survey lies in the fact that they were part of the great conquest and colonization program undertaken by the Portuguese Crown. Another aspect that was considered was the fact that those towns are the oldest urban nuclei of Paraíba s hinterland. They came into being as early as in the times of the colony, thus producing a favorable environment to the study of the changes that occurred in the captaincy s hinterland scenery resulting from the process of formation and development of the colonial urban space. Three fundamental categories of analysis were defined since they have a direct bearing upon the urban configuration of the two colonization nuclei: povoado, freguesia and vila. The three of them are related to civil and ecclesiastic jurisdictions. Field, documentation and bibliography surveys were undertaken in order to develop the study. They allowed for the finding of vestiges of the old, colonial urban structures and for the development of theoretical analysis based on present-day studies of issues relating to the colonial urban history. The study purposes were, therefore, to try to understand how the old urban nuclei of Pombal and Sousa fit in the territorial expansion policies undertaken by the Portuguese government; to relate the process of urban formation and development of such nuclei with the categories of analysis povoação-freguesia-vila by discussing the relations and influences they exert over one another and their territory, as well as to unveil, as much as possible, the configuration the urban spaces that were shaped along the 18th century

Território de Urbanização Difusa

A presente dissertação constitui o culminar do Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura e Urbanismo, da Universidade Fernando Pessoa – Porto. Tem como objeto de estudo a indústria em Território de Urbanização Difusa, sendo o objetivo maior a sua compreensão através, principalmente, da relação entre a dispersão industrial e as diretrizes de ocupação determinadas pelos planos de ordenamento do território, no contexto do concelho. Com este intuito foram analisadas quatro zonas que abrangem parte das freguesias de Gandra, Rebordosa, Lordelo, Vilela, Sobrosa e Duas Igrejas, localizadas no noroeste do concelho de Paredes, as quais se observaram num período cronológico delimitado entre 1947 e 2011. Trata-se de um território de grande complexidade onde existe uma multifuncionalidade de espaços. Caracteriza-se, fundamentalmente, por uma ocupação difusa/dispersa, tendo como suporte a rede de estradas e caminhos públicos em que a atividade industrial predomina nas mais diversas dimensões, desde as zonas industriais aquela inserida nos aglomerados residenciais de cariz familiar. Esta dispersão intensificou-se ao longo do séc. XX, com a fixação dispersa das indústrias que promoveram o desenvolvimento de um modelo de economia familiar que se reflete no território. A implementação do Planeamento formal, em finais desse século, virá estabelecer regras que ainda assim parecem insuficientes para controlar os aspetos mais negativos das opções individuais pré-plano. Na verdade, o atual modelo de implantação industrial levanta muitas preocupações no que concerne à preservação das estruturas “verdes”, podendo vir a comprometer, no futuro, a sustentabilidade ambiental e ecológica deste território. Será com algumas breves reflexões a este propósito, após repassar as questões principais do trabalho, que o terminaremos.

Politics and protestant Lordship in North East Scotland during the reign of James VI: The life of George Keith, fourth Earl Marischal, 1554-1623

George Keith, fourth Earl Marischal is a case study of long-term, quietly successful and stable lordship through the reign of James VI. Marischal’s life provides a wholly underrepresented perspective on this era, where the study of rebellious and notorious characters has dominated. He is also a counter-example to the notion of a general crisis among the European nobility, at least in the Scottish context, as well as to the notion of a ‘conservative’ or ‘Catholic’ north east. In 1580 George inherited the richest earldom in Scotland, with a geographical extent stretching along the east coast from Caithness to East Lothian. His family came to be this wealthy as a long term consequence of the Battle of Flodden (1513) where a branch of the family, the Inverugie Keiths had been killed. The heiress of this branch was married to the third earl and this had concentrated a large number of lands, and consequently wealth, in the hands of the earls. This had, however, also significantly decreased the number of members and hence power of the Keith kindred. The third earl’s conversion to Protestantism in 1544 and later his adherence to the King’s Party during the Marian Civil War forced the Keiths into direct confrontation with their neighbours in the north east, the Gordons (led by the Earls of Huntly), a Catholic family and supporters of the Queen’s Party. Although this feud was settled for a time at the end of the war, the political turmoil caused by a succession of short-lived factional regimes in the early part of the personal reign of James VI (c.1578-1585) led the new (fourth) Earl Marischal into direct confrontation with the new (sixth) Earl of Huntly. Marischal was outclassed, outmanoeuvred and outgunned at both court and in the locality in this feud, suffering considerably. However, Huntly’s over-ambition in wider court politics meant that Marischal was able to join various coalitions against his rival, until Huntly was exiled in 1595. Marischal also came into conflict briefly with Chancellor John Maitland of Thirlestane as a consequence of Marischal’s diplomatic mission to Denmark in 1589-1590, but was again outmatched politically and briefly imprisoned. Both of these feuds reveal Marischal to be relatively cautious and reactionary, and both reveal the limitations of his power. Elsewhere, the study of Marischal’s activities in the centre of Scottish politics reveal him to be unambitious. He was ready to serve King James, the two men having a healthy working relationship, but Marischal showed no ambition as a courtier, to woo the king’s favour or patronage, instead delegating interaction with the monarch to his kinsmen. Likewise, in government, Marischal rarely attended any of the committees he was entitled to attend, such as the Privy Council, although he did keep a keen eye on the land market and the business conducted under the Great Seal. Although personally devout and a committed Protestant, the study of Marischal’s interaction with the national Kirk and the parishes of which he was patron reveal that he was at times a negligent patron and exercised his right of ministerial presentation as lordly, not godly patronage. The notion of a ‘conservative North East’ is, however, rejected. Where Marischal was politically weak at court and weak in terms of force in the locality, we see him pursuing sideways approaches to dealing with this. Thus he was keen to build up his general influence in the north and in particular with the burgh of Aberdeen (one result of this being the creation of Marischal College in 1593), pursued disputes through increasing use of legal methods rather than bloodfeud (thus exploiting his wealth and compensating for his relative lack of force) and developed a sophisticated system of maritime infrastructure, ultimately expressed through the creating of the burghs of Peterhead and Stonehaven. Although his close family caused him a number of problems over his lifetime, he was able to pass on a stable and enlarged lordship to his son in 1623.

Análisis del nivel de aceptación del diario vespertino La Tarde en la ciudad de Cuenca

La propuesta del presente trabajo es conocer el resultado del nivel de aceptación del público del medio de comunicación cuencano vespertino, diario La Tarde. Con este motivo, en el primer capítulo se presentan los antecedentes del nacimiento de la prensa y su incorporación en Cuenca alrededor de 1822. Previo a entrar en el análisis propio de los medios, se hace un recorrido por las principales teorías del periodismo: teoría del espejo, newsmaking, gatekeeper, agenda setting, instrumentalista, espiral del silencio; entre otras. En el segundo capítulo se analiza diario La Tarde, su logotipo, estudios de mercado, perfil de los lectores, análisis de la competencia, FODA; así como su análisis estructural detallando el proceso de impresión, técnico, valorativo y noticioso. El tercer capítulo se enfoca al análisis de la preferencia de los lectores, la frecuencia de lectura y horas preferidas, usos de medios digitales, secciones que más le gustan, secciones que implementaría y otros aspectos que permiten medir el grado de satisfacción ante la presencia de este diario cuencano. Para ello se aplicó una encuesta en las parroquias: Gil Ramírez Dávalos, El Sagrario y San Blas, en la cual se recaudaron datos por medio de un cuestionario prediseñado aplicado en un universo de 147 personas. Entre los resultados del estudio a pesar de los pocos años de creación de La Tarde, se evidenció que su presencia en el mercado no es del todo sólida, lo que impide ampliar su mercado.

A demonstration of mobile phone deployment to support the treatment of acutely ill children under five in Bushenyi district, Uganda.

Background: Benefits of mobile phone deployment for children <5 in low-resource settings remain unproven. The target population of the current demonstration study in Bushenyi District, Uganda, presented with acute fever, pneumonia, or diarrhoea and were treated by community health workers (CHWs) providing integrated community case management (iCCM). Methods: An observational study was conducted in five parishes (47 villages) served by CHWs well versed in iCCM with supplemental training in mobile phone use. Impact was assessed by quantitative measures and qualitative evaluation through household surveys, focus group discussions, and key informant interviews. Results: CHWs in targeted sites improved child healthcare through mobile phone use coupled with iCCM. Of acutely ill children, 92.6% were correctly managed. Significant improvements in clinical outcomes compared to those obtained by CHWs with enhanced iCCM training alone were unproven in this limited demonstration. Nonetheless, qualitative evaluation showed gains in treatment planning, supply management, and logistical efficiency. Provider confidence and communications were enhanced as was ease and accuracy of record keeping. Conclusion: Mobile phones appear synergistic with iCCM to bolster basic supportive care for acutely ill children provided by CHWs. The full impact of expanded mobile phone deployment warrants further evaluation prior to scaling up in low-resource settings.

Relatório de Estágio - Intervenção realizada na comunidade idosa da freguesia de Valhascos e Alcaravela

O conceito de qualidade de vida no idoso é de extrema importância no momento, muito devido ao envelhecimento da população e á permanência na vida ativa até mais tarde, com implicações importantes na necessidade de cuidadores para esta população que muitas vezes não existem. Tentar responder à aparente contradição que existe entre velhice e bem- estar, ou à associação ente velhice e doença, pode contribuir para que o envelhecimento seja um aspeto central, devendo ser promovido quer a nível individual, quer a nível coletivo. O principal objetivo deste trabalho centra-se essencialmente na descrição e análise das competências adquiridas em estágio, de acordo com as atividades realizadas seguindo as fases do planeamento em saúde, designadamente: o diagnóstico de saúde da comunidade idosa da freguesia de Valhascos e Alcaravela, e intervenção realizada nessa mesma comunidade, à luz das competências do Enfermeiro Especialista em Saúde Comunitária. Participaram no estudo 102 idosos com idades entre os 65 e 92 anos (M = 77,2); a residir nas freguesias de Valhascos e Alcaravela.Foram utilizados os seguintes instrumentos de recolha de dados: Dados sociodemográficos; WHOQOL – Abreviado (versão Português); WHOQOL-OLD; e Esbala de BARTHEL. A metodologia do planeamento em saúde utilizada foi fundamentada essencialmente em Imperatori e Giraldes.

Corporalidad presencia escénica y cosmovisión andina el personaje del Rucuyaya

La presente investigación ha tenido por objeto el estudio de la noción de corporeidad, como un concepto evolucionado de la idea de cuerpo; la reflexión sobre la dimensión de la corporeidad nos llevó a articularla con el vocablo siwa presente progresivo de la lengua aymara que significa “estar estando” e implica la conjunción del tiempo-espacio habitado del ser humano, lugar teórico actoral que recoge nítidamente el concepto de “presencia”. A partir de este primer vínculo, realizamos un tejido conceptual alrededor de este tema que ha implicado reflexionar, cómo el empleo de los conceptos anteriores se concretaban en trabajo del actor; emerge de esta manera, lo que llamamos en la investigación cuerpo siwa: un cuerpo que habita celebrativamente la acción que realiza. El cuerpo celebrado o cuerpo siwa sirvió para la construcción de una “dramaturgia actoral” que verifica la inversión total del cuerpo en la acción que realiza, confirmando dicha efectuación en el personaje rucuyaya de la fiesta popular andina de las parroquias de Alangasí y El Cabo de las provincias de Pichincha y Azuay, respectivamente. Creemos haber demostrado, la validez académica de una técnica actoral nacida de la filosofía andina que plantea una vía distinta para la formación del actor. En conclusión, debemos agregar que el presente estudio abre un umbral investigativo al hecho de profundizar, por otra vía epistemológica, el concepto de la presencia y organicidad en el actor.
