    In their article "Electronic Literature and the Effects of Cyberspace on the Body" Maya Zalbidea and Xiana Sotelo discuss how new technologies are facilitating the emancipation of subjugated subjects aimed at transforming unequal social relations through an intersectional and performative approach. This perspective is discussed through the exploration of the so-called intersectional approach described by Berger and Guidroz, Haraway's situated knowledges, and Butler's performative agency based on transgressions. Framed within the posthuman, post-biological deconstruction of social and cultural hierarchies, Zalbidea and Sotelo argue for the value of a conjuncture between postcolonial post-modern/post-structuralist literature and the field of feminist cultural studies. Based on previous theories of gender and bodies in cyberspace, Zalbidea and Sotelo develop ideas about bodies, gender, and anxieties, and how these theories may be illustrated metaphorically in electronic literature and new media art works.Depto. de Estudios Ingleses: Lingüística y LiteraturaFac. de FilologíaTRUEpu

    Leopoldo Calvo-Sotelo y la Transición exterior: la prioridad europea

    Leopoldo Calvo-Sotelo played an important role in Spain’s transition to democracy, serving as minister and later prime minister. His political career was closely linked to Foreign Affairs and to the process of the “Foreign Transition” as he liked to call it. This paper, largely based upon his personal archives, analyses his thought, and how his idea of Europe played an important role in the formulation and execution of his policy. Calvo-Sotelo’s ideas and achievements are compared with those of other political leaders of the time, such as Adolfo Suárez and Felipe González. The conclusions show the nature and characteristics of Leopoldo Calvo-Sotelo’s pro-European ideas.Leopoldo Calvo-Sotelo desempeñó importantes responsabilidades ejecutivas en los gobiernos de la Transición, incluida la presidencia del Gobierno. Su gestión estuvo intensamente vinculada a las relaciones exteriores, dentro del proyecto que él mismo denominó «transición exterior». El artículo, basado en buena medida en documentación conservada en su archivo personal, analiza cuáles fueron sus principales ideas y en qué medida su concepto de Europa desempeñó un papel relevante en la formulación y ejecución de su política. Analiza esos hechos en relación con otros dirigentes del momento, especialmente Adolfo Suárez y Felipe González. Las conclusiones permiten conocer en qué consistió el europeísmo del principal protagonista de estos hechos

    Peru and the British naval station (1808-1839)

    The protection of British interests in the Pacific was the basic reason to detach a number of Royal Navy's vessels to that Ocean during the Nineteenth Century. There were several British interests in the area, and an assorted number of Britons established in Spanish America since the beginning of the struggle for Independence. Amongst them, merchants was perhaps the most important and influential group, pressing on their government for protection to their trade. As soon as independence reached the western coast of America, a new space was created for British presence. First Valparaiso and afterwards Callao, British merchants were soon firmly established in that part of South America. As had happened in the Atlantic coast, their claims for protection were attended by the British government through the Pacific Squadron, under the flag of the Commander-in-Chief of the South American Station, until 1837, when it was raised to a separate Station. During the period covered by this research (1808-1839), Peru came through three crucial moments: the Wars of Independence, the initial years as a republic, and its confederation with Bolivia under the rule of Santa Cruz. Accordingly, the country shifted from being ruled by a strong authority, as the viceroy; to became a highly unstable republic, first because the War of Independence itself, and afterwards by reason of internal disputes amongst the military. British merchants already established in Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires and Valparaiso, considered Peruvian as a very profitable market, and consequently tried by every possible way to open it to foreign trade. Following the independence, in 1821, this market was officially opened, but it did not matched what British merchants expected. Potential buyers were too small in number and a reaction from local merchants proved efficient enough to maintain a high taxation on foreign goods. Even when British merchants reacted against these official policy, namely Protectionism, they were unable to obtain a more aggressive support from their government. Other British interests in Peru were built around a loan granted by a number of British investors in 1822, and some further investments on mining. Even when this time was a period in which Great Britain had achieved a paramount position in industry, commerce, naval and several other fields, its government maintained its policy of "free hands" towards the new republics in America. Consequently, British consular agents, as well as British Captains, devoted their mains efforts to kept British trade as safe as possible, and to protect their national from abuses committed by local authorities. This thesis aims to study how well the Royal Navy, through the Pacific Squadron and afterwards the Pacific Station, protected British subjects and interests in Peru, between 1808 and 1839. The research focused in the effectiveness of that naval presence, discussing how it was affected by local circumstances, the number of vessels available, the urgencies of transport of treasure and the limitations associated to operate without a shore base

Fundación Barceló; Argentina.En la práctica médica diaria, nos vemos envueltos en situaciones que requieren una visión integral del paciente, no solo dotada de conocimiento científico. Es aquí donde cobra importancia incorporar nociones legales, antropológicas, filosóficas y sociológicas. Todo esto puede resumirse en que tener conocimiento y formación en bioética resulta fundamental para la práctica profesional actual. De esta forma, la atención será de calidad y, además, contribuiremos al cambio de paradigma en las ciencias de la salud.
