Walsh of signs
No full textEn este artículo, el autor establece nuevas relaciones entre tres de los textos más célebres en torno a crímenes en América Latina: Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias (Las Casas, 1552), Vida del Chacho (Hernández, 1855) y Operación masacre (Walsh, 1957). La pregunta que lo anima es indagar cuál es la vigencia de esos relatos y dónde radica. Para esto, el autor traza una serie de continuidades, que configuran una lectura política mediante la cual señala el intenso vínculo que une el destino de Las Casas, de Hernández y de Walsh, e invita a una lectura inherente a los textos, como si los mismos conservaran algo que trasciende a su tiempo.In this article, the author establishes new relations between three of the most famous texts about crimes in Latin America: Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias (Las Casas, 1552), Vida del Chacho (Hernández, 1855) y Operación masacre (Walsh, 1957). The question that encourages it is to investigate the validity of these texts and where it resides. The author plots a series of continuities, that form a political reading that indicates the intense link that joins the destination of Las Casas, Hernández y Walsh, and invites to an inherent reading of the texts, as if they keep something that transcends their time.Facultad de Periodismo y Comunicación Socia

He was educated at Parramatta High School and St John's College at the University of Sydney (BA Hons 1930, LLB Hons 1934). He was awarded a Public Exhibition Bursary to the University of Sydney based on his results in the Leaving Certificate of November 1926. (1)<br /><br />Walsh was an award winning student. He completed his Bachelor of Arts degree with First Class Honours in English, Philosophy and Latin and won the University Medals for English and Philosophy. He achieved First Class Honours in his law degree and won the University Medal for Law. During his time at the University he received many other awards. In 1928 he was awarded the Josiah Symon Scholarship (English) and the MacCallum Prize (English, shared with RB Farrell). In 1929 he won the Thomas Henry Coulson Scholarship (English) and GS Caird Scholarship (Philosophy). In 1930 he received the James Coutts Scholarship (English) and Wigram Allen Scholarship II. Whilst studying law he won the Pitt Cobbett Prize No.I (1931, shared with WT Morck), the George and Matilda Harris Scholarship No.I (1932, shared with CR Shannon), the George and Matilda Harris Scholarship No.II (1933) and the Pitt Cobbett Prize No.II (1933). In 1934 he shared the John George Dalley Prize for the most distinguished Law student with three others. (2) <br /><br />As well Walsh won prizes awarded through St. John's College: the John George Dalley Prize (1928, 1930, 1931), the Richard Bede Dalley Scholarship (1929) and the O'Connell Scholarship (1932). In 1930 he was vice-president of the Sydney University Literary Society. (3) His association with St John's College continued after he left University.

(4)<br /><br />Walsh was called to the New South Wales Bar on 25 May 1934. He practised primarily in Equity, out of 174 Phillip Street and, from 1939, at 142 Phillip Street. He was the author of two publications: 'The Married Woman's Property Act, 1901, New South Wales...' (Sydney, 1950, with RE Walker) and 'The Defamation Act, 1958 and the Common Law'. (5) <br /><br />On 8 February 1954 Walsh was appointed as a Puisne Judge of the Supreme Court of New South Wales at the age of 44 years, despite not being a member of the Senior Bar. From 1955 to 1969 he was one of the Judges in Admiralty and from 1958 to 1962 he was in charge of a separate commercial causes list.

He resigned as a Supreme Court Judge and a Judge of Appeal on 2 October 1969 and was transferred to the High Court of Australia from 3 October.

(7) On 1 January 1971 he became a Privy Councillor. (8) <br /><br />Walsh was made Knight Commander (Civil) of the Order of the British Empire on 21 November 1969 for his services to law.

Peak-to-average ratio (PAR) reduction by Walsh-code selection for IS-95 and CDMA2000 systems
No full textPeak-to-average ratio (PAR) of a signal is an important parameter for a linear amplifier because it determines the backoff factor needed to be applied to the amplifier in order to avoid clipping and hence spectral regrowth. The author analyses and compares the PAR of the downlink signal for the IS-95 and the CDMA2000 single carrier systems. It is found that PAR of the signal depends on the Walsh code assignment. PAR control by Walsh code selection is proposed and its effectiveness is discussed.</p

Walsh appropriations: footnote to a research process
No full textLa investigación en ciencias sociales combina pautas de producción establecidas con otras que tienen características artesanales. Siguiendo esto último, el autor propone un trayecto que reflexiona acerca de un proceso de investigación en comunicación / educación a partir de relacionar elementos de la obra de Rodolfo Walsh. Este se organiza a partir de tres momentos: en el primero se presenta un antecedente ficcionalizado, en el segundo se discute en torno de la práctica de la escritura y en el tercero se indaga sobre la construcción de una categoría intermedia que describe el contexto de instituciones educativas de jóvenes y adultos.Research in social sciences combines established patterns of production with others that have artisanal features.

Rodolfo Walsh and the <i>Semanario de la CGT de los Argentinos</i>
No full textEn este artículo, el autor propone un repaso somero de una experiencia inconmensurable: la creación y la dirección del Semanario de la CGT de los Argentinos por Rodolfo Walsh. El escrito postula la posibilidad de pensar a Walsh en su integralidad política, como valoración de una práctica donde se articulan el periodismo, la literatura, la investigación y la militancia; reconocer los contextos, las lógicas y las tensiones entre las culturas y las perspectivas que intervienen en esta experiencia; y las implicancias de producir discursos mediáticos populares que disputen el sentido sobre la emancipación, los modos organizativos y el rol de los movimientos políticosociales.In this article, the author proposes a brief review of an immeasurable experience: notes on the creation and direction of the Semanario de la CGT de los Argentinos by Rodolfo Walsh. The paper postulates the possibility of thinking of Walsh in his political integrality, as an evaluation of a practice where journalism, literature, research and militancy are articulated; recognize the contexts, the logic and the tensions between cultures and perspectives that come into play in this experience; and the implications of the challenge of producing popular media discourses to dispute the sense of the emancipation, the organizational modes and the role of the political-social movements.Facultad de Periodismo y Comunicación Socia
Operation Walsh. Writing at the Service of Building a Better World
No full textEl autor plantea en este artículo que los medios hegemónicos y el mundo académico tradicional eligen destacar a Rodolfo Walsh como periodista y como militante en una suerte de intento por minimizar su impacto cultural como escritor. No obstante, el clivaje que implicó Operación masacre (1957), así como la excelencia del cuento «Esa mujer» (1966), demuestra su lugar central en la literatura y la posibilidad de apertura hacia nuevas tramas escriturales por él instauradas. El trabajo destaca y pone en valor la aspiración de Walsh para producir el mejor relato posible con la convicción de que la perfección de ese relato colaboraría en la construcción del mejor mundo posible.The author points in this article that local hegemonic media and the traditional academic world choose to highlight Rodolfo Walsh as a journalist and as a militant in an attempt to minimize his cultural impact as a writer. However, the cleavage that involved Operation masacre (1957), as well as the excellence of the story «Esa mujer» (1966), demonstrates his central place in the literature and the possibility of opening towards new scriptural plots established by him. The work highlights and values the aspiration of Walsh to produce the best possible story with the conviction that the perfection of that story would collaborate in the construction of the best possible world.Facultad de Periodismo y Comunicación Socia
