El proyecto de una economía personalista
No full textLuk Bouckaert, a Professor at the Catholic University of Louvain, presents in this article the characteristics of what he calls a personalist economy. While there are a number of authors who have supported personalism, there are also attempts of many economists who notexplicitly adopting this name, could be related to this school of thought. This philosophical tradition is essentially based on a vision of the human being as a person, depending on four key assumptions: the recognition of basic needs, the ethical commitment, mutual trustas the basis for the market economy and economic democracy as the touchstone of business ethics.Luk Bouckaert, profesor de la Universidad Católica de Lovaina, presenta en este artículo las características de lo que él denomina una economía personalista. Si bien existe una serie de autores que han adherido al personalismo, también se dan intentos de numerosos economistas quienes, aún no adoptando explícitamente esta denominación, podrían ser adscriptos a esta corriente. La misma parte, fundamentalmente, de una visión del hombre como persona sobre la base de cuatro supuestos fundamentales: el reconocimiento de necesidades básicas, el compromiso ético, la confianza mutua como base del mercado yla democracia económica como piedra de toque para la ética en los negocios

Racing algorithms for conditional independence inference
No full textIn this article, we consider the computational aspects of deciding whether a conditional independence statement t is implied by a list of conditional independence statements L using the independence implication provided by the method of structural imsets. We present two algorithmic methods which have the interesting complementary properties that one method performs well to prove that t is implied by L, while the other performs well to prove that t is not implied by L. However, both methods do not well perform the opposite. This gives rise to a parallel algorithm in which both methods race against each other in order to determine effectively whether t is or is not implied.
Some empirical evidence is provided that suggests this racing algorithms method performs considerably better than an existing method based on so-called skeletal characterization of the respective implication. Furthermore, unlike previous methods, the method is able to handle more than five variables

Spatially-localized time dependent solutions including turbulence and their interactions in 2D Kolmogorov flow
No full textIn 2D Kolmogorov flow in small aspect ratio domains, spatially-localized solutions such as kink, traveling or time-dependent kink-antikink pars coexist. However, the conservation of the flow rate in the y direction strongly restrict combination of localized solutions and their positioning. We find that by adding a homogeneous flow U y their positioning is controlled and each of localized solutions including a spatially-localized chaos is isolated. Numerical results suggest that these isolated solutions can be elements constructing a whole flow
Characteristics of overlap region in high-Reynolds number turbulent channel flow
No full textDirect numerical simulation of the fully developed turbulent channel flows have been carried out at the Reynolds number based on the friction velocity and the channel half width, 2000, 4000 and 8000. A hybrid 10th order accurate finite difference scheme in the stream and spanwise directions, and a second-order scheme in the wall-normal direction is adapted as the spatial discretization method. We observed the plateau profiles in the indicator function corresponded to the von Karman constant. Furthermore, second peak of streamwise pre-multiplied spectra were appeared in the same wall normal height, 300 < y+ < 600, in case of Re = 4000. Nevertheless, the effects of the lager than the channel half height scale on the streamwise turbulent intensity are fixed contributions without dependence on Reynolds number. These results suggested that the new streamwise vortexes are formed between buffer layer and outer layer with increasing of Reynolds number
La 'circunstancia' de 'Herederos y Pretendientes
No full textIn June 2010, the Ortega y Gasset Foundation hosted a Conference about the “Spanish Philosophical Transition” in order to debate the book of Francisco Vázquez, La filosofía española. Herederos y Pretendientes. Una lectura sociológica (1963-1990), recently published. This paper is the author’s response to criticism raised in the Conference and to published reviews received by this book. First, the author summarized the argument of Herederos y pretendientes. Secondly he responds and takes into account the most important objections against the book’s hypothesis and methodology. Finally the author evaluates the favorable judgments received by the book and suggests the limits of the historian’s task.Fundación Ortega y Gasset-Marañó
