Historical narratives and civic subjectification in post-conflict times
Dossier: Violencia política, desaparición forzada y memoriaEsta revisión bibliográfica busca responder a la pregunta: Cuál es el rol de las narrativashistóricas en la construcción del ciudadano post-conflicto? La autora explora algunas de lasimplicaciones sociopolíticas al contar una narrativa particular para darle sentido al pasado,presente, y futuro, y como herramienta crucial en la subjetivación de la ciudadanía del post-conflicto. Esto es, la creación de nuevas subjetividades, roles, expectativas, y códigos deconducta consistentes con la aspiración de una reconstrucción nacional. La autora profundiza entres áreas: 1) el ciudadano post-conflicto normativo 2) los diferentes tipos de narrativas históricasy su uso para la formación ciudadana 3) la participación y respuesta de los jóvenes frente a lasnarrativas históricas y la subjetivación cívica. Las conclusiones señalan algunos de los desafíos yoportunidades que Colombia –como uno de los casos más recientes de transición política– puedeafrontar con relación a las narrativas históricas, la ciudadanía post-conflicto, y los esfuerzos deconstrucción de paz.This literature review seeks to answer the question: What is the role of historical narratives inconstructing the post-conflict citizen? The author explores some of the sociopoliticalimplications of telling a particular narrative as a tool for making sense of the past, the present,and the future, as well as a key element in the subjectification of the post-conflict citizenry. Thisis, the creation of new subjectivities, roles, expectations, and codes of conduct consistent withthe goal of national reconstruction. The author delves into three main areas: 1) the normativepost-conflict citizen 2) the different types of historical narratives and their deployment forcitizenship formation 3) youth’s engagement and responses to historical narratives and civicsubjectification. Conclusions point to some of the challenges and opportunities that Colombia –as one of the most recent cases of political transition– might face in relation to historicalnarratives, post-conflict citizenship, and peacebuilding efforts

The Dogs Who Outlived Philosophy: On Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook's 'Some Unexpected Events Sometimes Bring Momentary Happiness' (2005)
The Dogs Who Outlived Philosophy: On Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook’s Some Unexpected Events Sometimes Bring Momentary Happiness (2005)
Author: Dorian Vale
In this elegiac critical essay, Dorian Vale confronts the philosophical rupture left by Araya Rasdjarmrearnsook’s 2005 video work, Some Unexpected Events Sometimes Bring Momentary Happiness. Filmed in a rural Thai field, the piece captures the final moments of dying dogs—documented not for spectacle, but for solemn recognition. There is no performance, no metaphor, no voiceover to translate their passing. Only presence.
Vale interprets the work not through aesthetics or interpretation, but through the doctrine of Post-Interpretive Criticism, reframing it as an act of sacred witness. Here, philosophy fails. Language trembles. And it is the dogs—their unadorned dying, their untheorized grief—that remain.
This essay positions Araya’s piece as a mirror to the viewer’s moral capacity: not to understand, but to endure; not to explain, but to stay. The dogs become not symbols of death, but testaments to the vanishing dignity of unmediated life. And in a world addicted to meaning, Vale argues, they may be the only ones who die without betraying the truth.

Sustainable Household Energy for Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
This paper presents the household energy consumption trends and alternatives for Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The study shows that, during the decade that the study was conducted, household energy consumption per capita increased by 17% from 6GJ. Traditional fuels accounted for about 80% of the consumption. Household energy expenditure per person tripled from 30. The energy consumption trend is highly correlated with fuel price; in 1995, charcoal was the most expensive fuel (app. 5 per GJ). Kerosene was sold at about half the price of charcoal, while fuelwood was the least expensive (app. $1 per GJ). In 2005, charcoal prices increased by about 20%, while fuelwood price declined by more than 10%. The price of electricity doubled while that of kerosene tripled and LPG quadrupled. Despite the rise in price, electricity consumption shot up by a factor of twenty, and kerosene declined by half. During the decade, traditional fuel use increased by 10% while modern energy use increased by 50%. The paper also considers the potential explanations and policy implications of the trends in the data

Preparing for battle: rhizobacteria's role in priming plants for drought stress
Drought is an issue that is prevalent in our world today, becoming an unavoidable constraint to crop productivity imperiling agricultural-based economies and food availability. Therefore, the development of environmentally-friendly and sustainable approaches to ameliorate the damage caused by drought is of primary importance. Soil-dwelling microorganisms found in the rhizosphere of a plant play prominent roles in the livelihood and fitness of plants, therefore possibly aiding plants in battling abiotic stress. In efforts to establish the role of rhizobacteria in the priming of plants for drought stress, we studied the effect of the leguminous-associating Bradyrhizobium japonicum and multi-host associating Bacillus amyloliquefaciens on the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana with a focus on parameters spanning their physiological and development differences attributing to better plant fitness in drought conditions. The data presented demonstrates that the presence of these rhizobacteria in the rhizosphere of the plants have significant effects on their germination rate, root architecture, biomass, reproduction, rate of water loss and soil moisture retention in A. thaliana, in comparison to the untreated control. The effect of these rhizobacterial species on A. thaliana establish an avenue for the development of environmentally-friendly and sustainable agricultural applications, utilizing interactions that occur in nature to promote plant growth and protect against abiotic stresses.M.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Timnit Isaac Araya Kefel

Data* and Code for The Research Paper:
Long-Term Impact of Cover Crop and Reduced Disturbance Tillage on Soil Pore Size Distribution and Soil Water Storage
About The Project
We studied the long-term impact of contrasting tillage and cover cropping systems on soil structure and soil hydraulic properties. We measured water retention and conductivity properties and analyzed the implication of these changes on water storage using numerical simulations in HYDRUS-2D software. Our study concludes that the long-term practices of no-till and cover crop systems were beneficial in terms of changes to the pore size distribution. No-till and cover cropping systems made marginal improvements in soil water conductivity and water storage.
