La construcción del bárbaro en la obra de Julio César

El término bárbaro registra una larga historia y, formando antinomias, recorre un largo itinerario. Desde la clásica oposición helenos-bárbaros, pasando por romanos-bárbaros, pasó a contribuir al surgimiento de nuevas antinomias, cristiano-pagano y civilizado-bárbaro. ¿Cómo fueron posibles estas continuas metamorfosis, que comenzaron en la Antigüedad, se continuaron reeditando durante la Edad Media y Moderna y las vemos aparecer aún en nuestros días? Son posibles porque el bárbaro es, por sobre todo, el "otro", tenga éste las características que tenga. En esa historia de invención del "otro" queremos detenernos para considerar el aporte de la cultura romana a esta construcción, basándonos en el De bello Gallico de Julio César

Open Source Enterprise Systems: Towards a Viable Alternative

Enterprise systems are located within the antinomy of appearing as generic product, while being means of multiple integrations for the user through configuration and customisation. Technological and organisational integrations are defined by architectures and standardised interfaces. Until recently, technological integration of enterprise systems has been supported largely by monolithic architectures that were designed, and maintained by the respective developers. From a technical perspective, this approach had been challenged by the suggestion of component-based enterprise systems that would allow for a more user-focused system through strict modularisation. Lately, the product nature of software as proprietary item has been questioned through the rapid increase of open source programs that are being used in business computing in general, and also within the overall portfolio that makes up enterprise systems. This suggests the potential for altered technological and commercial constellations for the design of enterprise systems, which are presented in different scenarios. The technological and commercial decomposition of enterprise software and systems may also address some concerns emerging from the users’ experience of those systems, and which may have arisen from their proprietary or product nature.

Vibrational spectroscopic characterization of the arsenate mineral barahonaite: Implications for the molecular structure

The mineral barahonaite is in all probability a member of the smolianinovite group. The mineral is an arsenate mineral formed as a secondary mineral in the oxidized zone of sulphide deposits. We have studied the barahonaite mineral using a combination of Raman and infrared spectroscopy. The mineral is characterized by a series of Raman bands at 863 cm−1 with low wavenumber shoulders at 802 and 828 cm−1. These bands are assigned to the arsenate and hydrogen arsenate stretching vibrations. The infrared spectrum shows a broad spectral profile. Two Raman bands at 506 and 529 cm−1 are assigned to the triply degenerate arsenate bending vibration (F 2, ν4), and the Raman bands at 325, 360, and 399 cm−1 are attributed to the arsenate ν2 bending vibration. Raman and infrared bands in the 2500–3800 cm−1 spectral range are assigned to water and hydroxyl stretching vibrations. The application of Raman spectroscopy to study the structure of barahonaite is better than infrared spectroscopy, probably because of the much higher spatial resolution.

A regularização fundiária de interesse social das favelas cariocas entre a promoção e negação de direitos e o papel das políticas públicas na superação da antinomia

O presente trabalho pretende analisar o movimento crescente de promoção da regularização fundiária de interesse social em curso nas favelas cariocas. O objetivo é estudar as causas, o conteúdo e os objetivos do instituto a fim de compreender seus resultados antinômicos de promoção e negação de direitos fundamentais para a população residente nestas áreas. Além da análise sobre a implementação da regularização fundiária de interesse social nas favelas cariocas, pretende-se demonstrar o papel das políticas públicas na superação da antinomia inerente ao instituto, garantindo os direitos fundamentais dos moradores destas áreas. Algumas políticas específicas foram destacadas para análise mais detida, como as de incremento da participação popular, subsídios para os custos decorrentes da regularização dos imóveis e educação para a devida compreensão do novo enquadramento e valor da propriedade já regularizada. Com esta análise, pretende o presente trabalho contribuir para o aperfeiçoamento da prática da regularização fundiária de interesse social nas favelas cariocas, a fim de que se possa minimizar seu aspecto prático de negação de direitos, maximizando a garantia dos direitos fundamentais aos moradores destas localidades.
