In early 1995, Italy ordered the extradition from Argentina to Italy of Erich Priebke. The request was made on the basis of an arrest petition against Priebke issued by the Judge in charge of the preliminary investigation before the Military Justice of Rome. Priebke was accused of ‘having been a member of the German Army, an enemy of the Italian State, in cooperation with … odier German soldiers, widi … executive action of … criminal design and acting with cruelty on people … causing the death of 335 people most of them Italian citizens, military men and civilian people who were not taking part in military operations, and premeditated shooting some shots against them, in “Cave Ardeatine”, Rome, on 24 March 1944 during the time of the war between Italy and Germany.’

Abstract In 1935, the Argentine-German botanist Ilse von Rentzell (1893–1985) published the book “Maravillas de nuestras plantas indígenas y algunas exóticas” (Wonders of our Indigenous Plants and Some Exotic Plants) in Buenos Aires, Argentina, illustrated with photographs taken by the Russian photographer Anatole Saderman (1904–1993). The publication of this book was entirely selffinanced by Von Rentzell herself, and it is one of the first in Argentina to include such a large number of photographs with this much prominence. The collaborative photographic work developed by these authors goes beyond the images included in the book. Working together, they created a corpus of photographs that each of them used in the following years to enhance their personal careers. At the time, these photographs of plants represented a break in Argentine photography, building bridges with the genealogy of botanical photographic publications in other parts of the world.

Full textAbstract:
This article reexamines early twentieth-century Argentine cultural nationalism, arguing that the movement's true significance rests in its promotion of a vision of Argentine nationhood that closely resembled the ideal of the folk nation upheld by German romanticism. Drawing from recent theoretical literature on ethnic nationalism, the article examines the political implications of this movement and explores the way in which the vigorous promotion of the ethnocultural vision of argentinidad by cultural nationalists served to detach definitions of Argentine identity from constitutional foundations and from the ideas of citizenship and popular sovereignty. It also challenges the accepted view that Argentine cultural nationalism represented a radical break with late nineteenth-century positivism. Positivist ideas about social organicism, collective character and historical determinism all helped paved the way for the Romantic vision of nationhood celebrated by the cultural nationalists.

Full textAbstract:
The article analyses the state of German bilateral relations with South America’ states in defense and security field. The decline in the dialogue between Germany and Latin America’ countries during the COVID-19 pandemic turned out to be more significant than in other regional areas . The key reason is the difficulties in strengthening German strategic positions on the continent in the second half of the 2010. The paper stresses the functional and geographical narrowness of German political and diplomatic opportunities. In the military sphere the cooperation was mainly reduced to the export of weapons produced in Germany. In its attempts to create strategic positions in South America official Berlin has traditionally focused on strengthening relations with Brazil. The factor of non-diversification of Germany’s regional contacts has been fully manifested in the situation of stagnation and degradation of German-Brazilian relations in the second half of the 2010-s. The reasons of it are not only the specificities of president J. Bolsonaro`s foreign policy, but also the fact that transition to the declared new levels of cooperation (strategic partnership since 2008, the launch of interstate consultations format in 2015) was not supported by a corresponding increase of the volumes of practical cooperation in the field of security and defense. In this context the author focuses on relaunching German-Brazilian bilateral relations as well as the FRG attempts to make dialogue with Argentine, Chile and Mexico more active. At the same time Berlin tries to increase efforts for ensuring peace in Columbia and for settlement of the situation around Venezuela. Failures in creating its own vaccine against COVID-19 did not allow Germany to use a potential «window of opportunity» in strengthening its strategic positions in Latin America.

Abstract. The Argentine-German Geodetic Observatory (AGGO) is one of the very few sites in the Southern Hemisphere equipped with comprehensive cutting-edge geodetic instrumentation. The employed observation techniques are used for a wide range of geophysical applications. The data set provides gravity time series and selected gravity models together with the hydrometeorological monitoring data of the observatory. These parameters are of great interest to the scientific community, e.g. for achieving accurate realization of terrestrial and celestial reference frames. Moreover, the availability of the hydrometeorological products is beneficial to inhabitants of the region as they allow for monitoring of environmental changes and natural hazards including extreme events. The hydrological data set is composed of time series of groundwater level, modelled and observed soil moisture content, soil temperature, and physical soil properties and aquifer properties. The meteorological time series include air temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed, solar radiation, precipitation, and derived reference evapotranspiration. These data products are extended by gravity models of hydrological, oceanic, La Plata estuary, and atmospheric effects. The quality of the provided meteorological time series is tested via comparison to the two closest WMO (World Meteorological Organization) sites where data are available only in an inferior temporal resolution. The hydrological series are validated by comparing the respective forward-modelled gravity effects to independent gravity observations reduced up to a signal corresponding to local water storage variation. Most of the time series cover the time span between April 2016 and November 2018 with either no or only few missing data points. The data set is available at https://doi.org/10.5880/GFZ.5.4.2018.001 (Mikolaj et al., 2018).

Political studies of military institutions in Latin America have tended to lay heavy stress on their external linkages, with a good deal of emphasis being placed upon the ‘differential degrees of dependence upon other countries for supplies, parts, training and equipment by the various service branches’. This particularly the case when scholars attempt to explain why two military institutions differ in their political behaviour and ideological orientation. Thus, we find Lieuwen asserting that[t]he aristocratic tendencies of [Latin American] naval officers… often were moderated by the democratic views of the British and United States officers who were their professional advisers. Conversely, before World War II, authoritarian attitudes of some Latin American armies were reinforced by the influence of German, Spanish, and Italian military missions.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This article explores the process of circulation of normative models and legal theories between Europe and Latin America. It analyzes the circulation of the German possessory model in the Argentinian legal experience between the enactment of the Civil Code of 1869 and the Civil Code Draft of 1936. We argue that the prominence of possession in nineteenth-century local legal culture and practices both conditioned and encouraged the reception of this model. The criticisms that arose at the beginning of the twentieth century regarding the liberal property law of the Civil Code were channelled, in the Civil Code Draft of 1936, through an expansion of the protection of possession to situations not previously contemplated, such as rural and urban leaseholds. German law, which served among other things, as the basis for this legal innovation, was adapted to specific legal traditions operating in provincial regulations.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The article explores the reception of eugenics in Argentina in the 1930s. It aims, first, to place eugenics as a topic of expert and public concern against the background of the “demographic fears” associated with the decline of the birthrate among the white population and the closing of European immigration that followed the world depression. Second, it underscores the role played by Italian and German cultural and scientific transnational networks in the reception and dissemination of medical ideas of race improvement. Based upon previously overlooked sources of the Prussian state archives, the essay seeks to revise conventional “neo-Lamarckian” explanations about Latin America’s (and Argentina’s) alleged immunity to negative eugenics. By examining the activities of the Asociación de Biotipología, the debates of the Second Pan-American Conference on Eugenics, and the academic exchanges fostered by the Deutsche-Iberoamerikanische Ärzteakademie, the article argues that Argentine medical practitioners were much more receptive to eugenic sterilization than previously claimed. As they made great efforts to separate it from other “unscientific” forms of racism, they lent credibility to practices which, as recent research has shown, many of them had adopted on allegedly therapeutic grounds.

Full textAbstract:
Debates over whether transnational and international legal institutions are fair, effective, or legitimate responses to corruption of local public officials have an important empirical dimension. We use case studies to examine whether foreign legal institutions serve as fair, effective, and legitimate complements to local anticorruption institutions. We refer to this set of claims as the “institutional complementarity theory.” The first case study centers on proceedings concerning bribes paid by subsidiaries of Siemens AG, a German company, to obtain and retain a contract to provide national identity cards for the Argentine government. The second case study examines events stemming from overbilling in the construction of a courthouse in Brazil. Analysis of these cases suggests that the institutional complementary theory is credible. At the same time, the findings suggest that local institutions have greater potential, and foreign institutions have more limited potential, than the theory assumes.

Full textAbstract:
Austrian playwright Jovita Epp's German language novel Amado mío, which takes place in post-WWII Argentina, is a modern adaptation of the traditional colonial novel. As such, the romances between the female main character, an Argentine of German descent, and her two love interests, an Argentine of Spanish descent (Criollo), and an Austrian Argentine, reflect the hopes and fears of persons and/or cultures caught up in the imperialist dreams of their nation. In the wake of WWII, Argentina becomes a space in which European(-descended) settlers can look back at Europe's "barbarism," questioning the imperialist worldviews that brought Europe to the brink of destruction. At the same time, these colonists search for European values that are salvageable from the cultural wreckage in Europe and employable in reconstructing a new identity in Argentina.

Franzki, Hannah C. "Criminal trials, economic dimensions of state crime, and the politics of time in international criminal law : a German-Argentine constellation." Thesis, Birkbeck (University of London), 2018. http://bbktheses.da.ulcc.ac.uk/304/.
Full textAbstract:
In the past thirty years, International Criminal Law (ICL) has established itself as an influential framework through which claims for justice in relation to the past can be mediated. This thesis offers a critique of the particular way in which ICL links history, law and justice. To this end, it contrasts a transitional justice perspective on trials in response to state crime, with one that looks at such trials as sites of competing politics of time. While the former focuses on the stabilisation of political authority, the later privileges its destabilisation. This perspective is then brought to bear on two sets of trials. These are, on the one hand, the trials of German industrialists conducted by the Allies in the wake of World War II (1939-1945) and, on the other hand,the ongoing trials in Argentina which seek to address the economic dimensions of the last Argentinian dictatorship (1976-1983). Through the reading of these trials, ICL is shown to be a liberal concept of historical justice, not (merely) because it focuses on individual responsibility or because it seeks to foster the liberal rule of law, but, more importantly, because it understands the economic dimensions of state crime according to the ontological separation of the state and the economic which is inherited from political liberalism. As a consequence, ICL tends to authorise a liberal democratic order, while sidelining other political imaginaries and related claims to justice, especially those that would involve a reshaping of the political economy on which liberalism rests. This argument is developed in two parts. The first part, consisting of three chapters, contrasts what has become the predominant perspective from which to study trials in response to state crime, namely transitional justice, with a theoretical framework inspired by the work of Walter Benjamin – in particular, his philosophy of history and his critique of violence. The central difference between these approaches, this thesis will argue, lies with the way in which each conceives of the promise of justice that comes with the memory of past violence. Transitional justice literature links the duty to remember past violence to the promise of fostering a particular juridico-political order, namely the liberal rule of law. Walter Benjamin, by contrast, is interested in the past’s ability to expose the foundational violence of the present juridico-political order. Against this backdrop, the promise of trials in response to state crime can be located only at the place, where they unearth ‘rags of history’ that, if read, expose not only the the violence of the past, but also that of the present, thereby opening it anew for contestation. Chapters Four, Five and Six put this theoretical framework to work in close readings of several criminal trials which deal with the economic dimensions of state crime conducted in post-World War II Germany and contemporary Argentina. These readings bring into relief the way in which the ontological underpinnings of political liberalism – such as the separation of the economic from the political, and the categorisation of violence according to sanctioned and non-sanctioned manifestations – structures the way that ICL makes sense of the economic dimensions of state crime.

Full textAbstract:
Le mouvement de germanophones vers l’Atlantique Sud n’a pas commencé avec les Nazis cherchant refuge dans l’après-guerre, ni avec la mise en place d’un protectorat allemand au Sud-Ouest africain en 1884. Tout au long du XIXe siècle, la grande majorité des germanophones ayant quitté l’Europe a voyagé et migré en Amérique du Nord, mais un certain nombre de germanophones avaient choisi l’Argentine et la Namibie bien avant le tournant du XIXe siècle. Des marchands et missionnaires germanophones avaient commencé à voyager dans l’Atlantique Sud et à s’y installer dans les années 1820s. Ces germanophones de l’Atlantique Sud étaient influencés par les conditions changeantes en Europe : la mobilité accrue des personnes et des biens au travers de l’évolution technologique et de la dominance croissante d’Etats-nations sur la scène politique de l’Europe occidentale. Après sa fondation en 1871, l’Etat-nation allemand étendît son influence politique avec ses croissantes aspirations au pouvoir sur le marché global. Après 1900 en particulier, les Allemands politiquement actifs ont cherché à contrer la compétition croissante des Etats-Unis sur le plan économique ; en tentant de rediriger les migrants germanophones des Etats-Unis vers les territoires qu’ils considéraient plus aptes pour l’aide et le contrôle continu de la part de l’Etat-nation allemand. Dans ce contexte, la majorité des Allemands reconnaissaient le Sud-Ouest africain allemand en tant que seul territoire à la hauteur de la colonisation allemande à grande échelle. Au même moment, les germanophones en Argentine devenaient actifs en promouvant l’Argentine comme destination idéale pour la migration germanophone, et un grand nombre de publications le louaient en tant que « pays d’avenir ». Les publications sur les Allemands aux Etats-Unis et au Canada sont nombreuses, mais les germanophones ayant choisi l’Atlantique Sud ont reçu moins d’attention. Parmi cette littérature secondaire, les Allemands en Argentine étaient traités comme des migrants étrangers à la République, tandis que les Allemands en Namibie ont été tout d’abord étudiés par rapport au colonialisme allemand. J’argumente que c’est les historiens qui ont crée cette division qui accentue davantage les différences entre les trajectoires historiquement rendues, et qui cachent les connections et similarités qui étaient évidentes aux migrants germanophones du XIXe siècle. Je me propose d’étudier ces germanophones dans un seul champ analytique. J’argumente que malgré les différences des circonstances politiques respectives, les expériences du quotidien des germanophones de ces deux côtés de l’Atlantique Sud étaient plus similaires que différentes. J’analyse les publications et les pensées des contemporains du XIXe siècle afin de surmonter la dichotomie crée par les historiens en tant que genres de mouvement mondiaux distincts et mutuellement exclusifs. Ce qui s’est passé dans l’Atlantique Sud peut être appelé « colonisation transnationale » : des Etats-nations émergents étaient impliqués dans le processus de colonisation –l’Argentine en Amérique du Sud et l’Allemagne dans le Sud-Ouest africain – et des fonctionnaires aidaient à accroitre leur expansion. Cependant, au sein de ces Etats, les personnes qui maintenaient une variété d’identités et d’origines européennes, étaient des agents actifs dans le processus de colonisation. Mes sources primaires comprennent des textes produits par les migrants de courte et longue durée, comme les récits de voyage, ainsi que les archives des communautés et gouvernements actuellement situés en Allemagne, en Argentine et en NamibieThe movement of German-speakers to the South Atlantic did not begin with Nazis seeking refuge in Argentina in the aftermath of World War II, nor did it start with the organization of the German protectorate of South-West Africa in 1884. Throughout the nineteenth century, the great majority of German-speakers leaving Europe travelled and migrated to North America, but some German-speakers had begun settling in both Argentina and Namibia well before the turn of the twentieth century. German-speaking merchants and missionaries started travelling to and settling in the South Atlantic in the 1820s. These South Atlantic German-speakers were influenced by the changing conditions in Europe: the increasing mobility of people and goods through the advancement of technology, and the increasing dominance of Nation-states on Western Europe’s political scene. After its founding in 1871, the German nation-state expanded its political reach with the German Empire’s increasing desire for power on the global market. After 1900 in particular, politically active Germans sought to compete against the increasing economic competition from the United States by attempting to redirect German-speaking migrants from their U.S. rival to areas they deemed more apt for continued German state aid and control. In this context, many Germans recognized German South-West Africa as the only territory suitable for large-scale German settlement. Meanwhile, German-speakers in Argentina became involved in marketing Argentina as the ideal destination for German-speaking migration and numerous publications praised it as the “land of the future.”German-speaking migration to the United States and Canada is well documented, whereas scholars have paid less attention to those migrants who went to Argentina and Namibia. Within the existing secondary literature, scholars have treated German-speakers in Argentina mostly as foreign migrants in an established republic, while conversely studying German-speakers in Namibia primarily within the context of German colonialism. I argue that it is historians who have created this division which overemphasizes the differences between the continents’ historically rendered trajectories, while hiding the connections and similarities from the viewpoint of nineteenth-century German-speaking migrants. I propose to study the everyday life experiences of nineteenth-century German-speakers on both sides of the South Atlantic within one single analytical field. I argue that even though the respective political circumstances varied, the everyday life experiences of these German-speakers on both sides of the South Atlantic were more similar than different. I analyze the writings and belief-systems of nineteenth-century contemporaries in order to overcome the dichotomy that historians have created as distinct and mutually exclusive types of global movement. What happened in the South Atlantic was “transnational colonization:” emerging nation-states were involved in the colonization process – Argentina in South America and Germany in Namibia – and civil servants helped further their growth. However, within these states, people who maintained a variety of European identities and origins, were active agents in the colonization process. My sources include texts produced by short- and long-term migrants, such as travel writings as well as community and government records currently held in archives in Germany, Argentina and Namibia

Although initially his activities were related to diplomatic functions and contemplated the control of information about the Colombian government and the promotion of commercial deals, artistic and literary issues became what concentrated Arciniega´s efforts to stimulate the dialogue and knowledge of the cultural traditions of both countries. Subsequently, Arciniegas continues to promote intellectual integration by articulating his own career and perspective of intellectual success with Argentinian publishers, becoming the Colombian consultant for the editors and transmitting an image of Argentinian history and culture to the Colombian journal El Tiempo´s public.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis advisor: Devin O. PendasThis dissertation shifts our understanding of 1970s human rights activism from a minimalist politics of salvation to a maximalist commitment to kindred spirits. Scholars see the 1970s as the time when the internationalist dreams of the 1960s disappeared to be supplanted by the salvation of a few over the transformation of the root causes of society's ills. By contrast, this dissertation examines West German activism on behalf of Latin Americans chaffing under military rule in the 1970s as a campaign of international political solidarity by different means. Faced with an environment hostile to transnational solidarity at home and abroad, West Germans of varying political doctrines and Christian confessions, as well as exiles from Latin America, embraced a common language of human rights as they pursued their political agendas. Its neutralist and humanitarian overtones made "human rights" discourses appealing to activists with diverging political goals. This dissertation reinterprets human rights activism as a continuation of internationalist commitments at a time when the foundations for transnational solidarity eroded. Grassroots embrace of human rights occurred during a tense state of securitization provoked by left-wing terrorism in West Germany. With the West German state increasingly unwilling to stand up for human rights on the international stage, especially for leftist victims, or accept them as refugees, grassroots solidarity activists were compelled to embrace a discourse that the state would accept. The Chilean and Argentinean cases--the most prominent instances of state-perpetrated abuses in 1970s Latin America--prompted leftists, left liberals, trade unionists, and Christians to advocate for the admission of political refugees and the imposition of economic embargoes and sanctions. Chilean and Argentinean exiles advocated for political change in their countries, but were forced to utilize human rights rhetoric to escape the stigma accorded to left-wing politics. Conservatives embraced human rights argumentation against the military regime in Chile when the wave of repression reached their political partners of the Christian Democratic Party in Chile. Lacking similar partners in Argentina, West German Christian Democracy did not demonstrate interest in conditions there. The West German government responded to grassroots advocacy with a minimalist vision for human rights protection that emphasized private negotiations on behalf of select individuals, which was abhorrent to many grassroots activists. The embrace of human rights by grassroots activists occurred in a highly contested process of political defeats and realignments. It was not a turn to a new utopia. Drawing on research in state and civil society repositories in Europe and the Americas, as well as oral interviews, this dissertation offers a window into transnational political activism between West Germany and Latin America in the 1970s. It shows how activists from the left and the right, as well as government officials, arrived at different definitions of human rights and diverging strategies for protecting them

Full textAbstract:
Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt in ihrem Hauptteil eine kontrastive Untersuchung populärwissenschaftlicher Zeitschriftenartikel aus Deutschland und Argentinien dar. In beiden Ländern existiert eine jeweils ausgeprägte Tradition in sowohl der Produktion als mittlerweile auch in der sprach- und kommunikationswissenschaftlichen Untersuchung populärwissenschaftlicher Texte. Aus Sicht der Fachtextlinguistik sind die Texte populärwissenschaftlicher Zeitschriften ein relevanter Untersuchungsgegenstand, da sie im Spannungsfeld zwischen Wissenschaftswelt und Gemeinwelt stehen und somit auch zwischen den sprachlichen Konventionen, die diesen beiden Welten eigen sind. Interessant ist zudem der Vergleich deutscher und argentinischer Texte, da in beiden Ländern eine rege und etablierte Produktion populärwissenschaftlicher Zeitschriften zu beobachten ist, die daraus hervorgehenden Publikationen jedoch recht unterschiedlichen Charakter haben. Die typischen deutschen Vertreter der Textsorte werden im kommerziellen Rahmen produziert und rezipiert, die für die argentinische Populärwissenschaft charakteristischen Texte dagegen in einem institutionellen Rahmen. Dieser grundlegende außersprachliche Kontrast legt die Vermutung nahe, dass auch Differenzen auf innersprachlicher Ebene bestehen. Diesem Aspekt widmet sich die vorliegende Arbeit, indem sie ein ausgewähltes linguistisches Merkmal populärwissenschaftlicher Darstellungsweise in Texten beider Länder kontrastiv untersucht.
Als zu untersuchendes Merkmal wurden Metaphern ausgewählt. Diese übernehmen besondere Leistungen in der Wissenschaftskommunikation und sind unter anderem für die popularisierende Vermittlung wissenschaftlicher Inhalte prägend. Dort dienen sie vor allem als Leseanreiz und unterstützen die Veranschaulichung abstrakter Inhalte. Diese beiden Aspekte wiederum sind zentrale strategische Ziele bei der Verfassung populärwissenschaftlicher Texte, welche ihre Adressaten sowohl informieren als auch deren Interesse wecken sollen. Die Leitfrage für den empirischen Teil dieser Arbeit ist daher, ob sich die Verwendung von Metaphorik in den deutschen (kommerziellen) Texten anders gestaltet als in den argentinischen (institutionellen).
Diese Arbeit versteht sich als Beitrag zur kontrastiven Untersuchung von Textsortenkonventionen in den Sprachräumen des Deutschen und des argentinischen Spanisch, speziell zu jenem Bereich, der untersucht, mit welchen sprachlichen Mitteln wissenschaftliche Inhalte an die Gesellschaft vermittelt werden. Von Interesse sind Aussagen zu Textsortenkonventionen, besonders in interlingual-kontrastiver Form, für die Übersetzungswissenschaft und -praxis sowie für die Fachsprachendidaktik. Während allgemeine Aussagen zu Fachsprachenkontrasten (unterschiedlicher Fachlichkeitsgrade) zwischen dem Deutschen und dem Spanischen offensichtlich bisher kaum vorliegen, konnten dem empirischen Teil dieser Arbeit dagegen zahlreiche mittlerweile entstandene Forschungsergebnisse zu Metaphorik in der Wissenschaftskommunikation dienen.
Im theoretischen Teil dieser Arbeit, der als Grundlage für den empirischen Teil fungiert, sollen der Stand der Forschung zu ausgewählten sprachwissenschaftlichen Aspekten sowie Rechercheergebnisse zur Populärwissenschaft in Deutschland und Argentinien zusammengefasst werden.
In einem ersten Kapitel (2.1) sollen die sprachlichen Merkmale populärwissenschaftlicher Texte überblicksmäßig dargestellt werden. Dabei werden die betreffenden Texte zunächst als Form der Experten-Laien-Kommunikation identifiziert (2.1.1). Diese wiederum zeichnet sich durch das Zusammentreffen von Menschen aus, die ein fachliches Kompetenzgefälle unterscheidet, womit verschiedenartige Gewohnheiten verbunden sind, über fachliche Sachverhalte zu kommunizieren. Während sich Experten in einer Fach- oder Wissenschaftssprache über Inhalte ihres Faches austauschen können, stehen den Menschen außerhalb eines fachlichen Rahmens Mittel der sogenannten Gemeinsprache zur Verfügung, um über die Gegenstände der außerfachlichen Welt zu kommunizieren. Vor diesem Hintergrund sollen die Merkmale von Fach-, Wissenschafts- und Gemeinsprache zusammengefasst werden, die Relevanz für die untersuchte Textsorte haben, bei der Experten einem Laienpublikum Inhalte ihres Faches vermitteln (2.1.2). Unter anderem soll auf Forschungsergebnisse eingegangen werden, die Fachtextsorten ordnen und den populärwissenschaftlichen Zeitschriftenartikel von anderen Textsorten abgrenzen (2.1.2.6) sowie auf solche, die Aussagen über mögliche kulturspezifische Besonderheiten deutscher und spanischsprachiger Fachsprachen bzw. -texte machen (2.1.2.7).
Da die in Fächern untersuchten oder konstruierten Gegenstände auch Teil der außerfachlichen Welt sein können oder in ihr Relevanz haben können, ist es für die Beteiligten von Vorteil, auch darüber kommunizieren zu können – unter Laien oder zwischen Laien und den jeweiligen Experten. (Dies ist übrigens in besonderem Maße für das Fach der Medizin der Fall.) Die Kommunikation über fachliche Inhalte zwischen Experten und Laien findet unter anderem über populärwissenschaftliche Medien, wie die hier untersuchten Publikumszeitschriften, statt. Im Kapitel 2.1.3 sollen diese in den Rahmen der verschiedenen populärwissenschaftlichen Formate gesetzt werden und danach ihre prominentesten Merkmale zusammengefasst werden. Hierbei geht es vor allem darum, wie aus einem wissenschaftlichen Text ein populärwissenschaftlicher wird.
Das zweite Unterkapitel (2.2) des theoretischen Teils dieser Arbeit soll sich dem Rahmen widmen, in dem in Deutschland bzw. in Argentinien populärwissenschaftliche Zeitschriften(artikel) entstehen. Wie oben bereits angedeutet, gestaltet sich dieses Feld in beiden Ländern recht unterschiedlich. Zu Beginn sollen die Begriffe Wissenschaftsjournalismus und divulgación científica definiert werden (2.3.1.1) und daraufhin kontrastiv einige Beobachtungen zusammengefasst werden, die die unterschiedliche Ausprägung beider Phänomene verdeutlichen (2.3.1.2). Schließlich sollen die Kommunikationsprofile der Zeitschriften nachgezeichnet werden, aus denen Texte für die Untersuchung im empirischen Teil dieser Arbeit verwendet wurden (2.3.2): Spektrum der Wissenschaft (SW), Bild der Wissenschaft (BW) sowie Encrucijadas (EN) und ConCiencia (CC). Abschließend soll auf die Merkmale eingegangen werden, die die mediale medizinische Wissenschaftspopularisierung von der anderer Fächer abgrenzt und sich auf die Textgestaltung auswirkt (2.3.3).
Das folgende Unterkapitel (2.3) soll das Phänomen des populärwissenschaftlichen Zeitschriftenartikels vor allem aus textlinguistischer Sicht charakterisieren. Dabei werden die Eigenschaften der Textsorte nach dem Schema CIAPUSCIOs zur Typologisierung von Fachtexten geordnet und erläutert (2.3.1). Dieses berücksichtigt die Ebenen Funktion, Situation, Thema sowie die formale Ebene des Textes. Abschließend soll noch auf das Thema der verschiedenen Popularisierungsgrade eingegangen werden, die Vertreter der Textsorte aufweisen können (2.3.2), und auf einen Vorschlag der Publizistikforschung, populärwissenschaftliche Texte nach den Aspekten Aktualität und Wissenschaftsgeneriertheit zu ordnen (2.3.3). Letzterer Punkt war Grundlage für einen Teil der Beschreibung der ausgewählten Korpustexte im Kapitel 3.
Im letzten Unterkapitel des theoretischen Teils dieser Arbeit (2.4) soll das Merkmal näher beleuchtet werden, das typisch für populärwissenschaftliche Texte ist und auf das die Korpustexte im empirischen Teil hin untersucht wurden: die Metapher. Vor allem soll die Leistung von Metaphorik in der Populärwissenschaft aufgezeigt werden. Dabei wird zunächst die Metaphern definiert, ihre Merkmale genannt und ihre Funktionsweise beschrieben (2.4.1). Daraufhin soll kurz auf die Funktion der Metapher in der fachinternen Wissenschaftskommunikation eingegangen werden (2.4.2), im Anschluss daran ausführlich die diversen Aspekte der Metapher in der Populärwissenschaft (2.4.3). Dazu zählen ihre Funktionen und Leistungen, ihre Funktionsweise, ihre Leistungsgrenzen sowie das Wirken von Metaphernsystemen und das von Metaphern in der medizinischen Populärwissenschaft.
Der empirische Teil der Arbeit im Kapitel 3 gliedert sich in zwei größere Unterkapitel (3.1 und 3.2). Das erste ist dem Vorgehen bei der Untersuchung gewidmet und enthält wiederum zwei Kapitel, eines zur Methodologie der Analyse und eines zum Korpus. Im Kapitel zur Methodologie (3.1.1) wird zunächst das Untersuchungsziel erläutert, daraufhin wird der Untersuchungsgegenstand konkret definiert, im Weiteren werden die beiden durchgeführten Analysen zu (1) konzeptuellen Metaphern und (2) Metaphernfrequenz einschließlich einer jeweils orientierenden Leitfrage, einer aufgestellten Hypothese und dem genauen Vorgehen bei der Untersuchung beschrieben. Das Kapitel zum Korpus (3.1.2) stellt diesen zunächst in Bezug auf seinen Umfang vor, den Erscheinungszeitraum seiner Texte, die dazugehörigen Zeitschriften und den Inhalt der Texte. Das Kapitel enthält zudem zwei Tabellen mit einer Übersicht über alle Texte des Korpus und eine Einordnung der Korpustexte nach der oben genannten Typologisierung. Letztere soll veranschaulichen, um welche Art populärwissenschaftlicher Artikel es sich, in Bezug auf ihre Wissenschaftsgeneriertheit, bei den untersuchten Texten handelt.
Im Kapitel 3.2 schließlich werden alle Untersuchungsergebnisse vorgestellt und ausgewertet. Zunächst zur ersten Untersuchung bezüglich der konzeptuellen Metaphern (3.2.1). Für die Vorstellung der Ergebnisse wurden alle festgestellten metaphorischen Ausdrücke nach ihren Bildspendern geordnet und aufgeführt. So entstanden die Gruppen der anthropomorphisierenden Metaphern und jener in den Sinnfeldern Kampf bzw. Krieg, kriminologische Ermittlungen sowie Technik (3.2.1.1). Nach dieser Aufführung werden die gefundenen Metaphern auf ihren jeweils vier Ebenen ausgewertet (Lexem(e), Bildspender, Bildempfänger, Bedeutung) und schließlich wird ein ausführliches Fazit zur eingangs aufgestellten Hypothese 1 formuliert (3.2.1.2). Im Unterkapitel zur zweiten Untersuchung bezüglich der Metaphernfrequenz (3.2.2) werden die errechneten Daten zunächst in einer Tabelle dargestellt und daraufhin, unter anderem mit Hilfe von veranschaulichenden Diagrammen ausgewertet. Auf dieser Basis wird ein Fazit zur zuvor aufgestellten Hypothese 2 gegeben.
Im vierten Kapitel dieser Arbeit werden die im Zuge der Arbeit gewonnenen Erkenntnisse abschließend zusammengefasst und mit Blick auf die oben genannte Vermutung zum Charakter der betreffenden deutschen und argentinischen Texte interpretiert.
Im fünften Kapitel findet sich die Bibliografie mit einer alphabetischen Ordnung aller für diese Arbeit verwendeten Quellen. Die Quellen aus dem Internet sind im jeweiligen Verweis in den Fußnoten mit QI markiert und in der Bibliografie separat aufgeführt. Das letzte Kapitel enthält schließlich das gesamte Korpus als Anhang. Die deutschen Texte (D1-D15) befinden sich im ersten Teil (6.1), die argentinischen (A1-A15) im zweiten (6.2).

AbstractThis chapter analyses the relationship between migration and social mobility in Argentina and Spain from a transnational perspective focusing on two dimensions: the patterns of intergenerational social mobility of immigrants and natives in both countries; the social mobility strategies and trajectories of Galicians families in Buenos Aires and Argentinians, of Galician origin, who migrated to Galicia after the 2001 crisis. The chapter begins by contextualizing the migratory trends in Europe and Latin America. This is followed by a comparative study of how immigration impacts on the class structure and social mobility patterns in Argentina and Spain. Quantitative analysis techniques are used to study the intergenerational social mobility rates. The statistical analysis of stratification and social mobility surveys have been benchmarked against previous studies conducted in Argentina (Germani, G., Movilidad social en la sociedad industrial. EUDEBA, Buenos Aires, 1963; Dalle, P., Movilidad social desde las clases populares. Un estudio sociológico en el Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires (1960–2013). CLACSO/Instituto de Investigaciones Gino Germani-UBA/CICCUS, Buenos Aires, 2016) and Spain (Fachelli, S., & López-Roldán, P., Revista Española de Sociología 26:1–20, 2017). Secondly, qualitative research methods are used to consider the social mobility strategies and class trajectories of migrant families. We analyse two fieldworks, developed in the framework of other research projects (based on 44 biographical and semi-structured interviews). These case studies were carried out with Galicians that migrated to Argentina between 1940 and 1960 and Argentinians, of Galician origin, who migrated to Galicia after the 2001 crisis.

AbstractIn this chapter, we explore the challenges of achieving a level of awareness of disaster risk, by each person or organisation receiving a warning, which allows them to take actions to reduce potential impacts while being consistent with the warning producer’s capabilities and cost-effectiveness considerations. Firstly we show how people respond to warnings and how the nature and delivery of the warning affects their response. We look at the aims of the person providing the warning, the constraints within which they must act and the judgement process behind the issue of a warning. Then we address the delivery of the warning, noting that warning messages need to be tailored to different groups of receivers, and see how a partnership between warner and warned can produce a more effective result. We include illustrative examples of co-design of warning systems in Argentina and Nepal, experience in communicating uncertainty in Germany and the Weather-Ready Nation initiative in the USA. We conclude with a summary of aspects of the warning that need to be considered between warner and decision-maker when designing or upgrading a warning system.

The Atucha II nuclear power plant is a pressurized heavy water reactor being constructed in Argentina. The original plant was designed by KWU in the 1970’s using the German methodology of break preclusion. The plant construction was halted for several decades, but a recent need for power was the driver for restarting the construction. Many times welding residual stresses in nuclear power plant can lead to cracking concerns. Hence, understanding the residual stress distribution is important to evaluate the reliability of pipe and nozzle joints with welds. In this paper, a large diameter Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) hot-leg nozzle was analyzed. This is a nozzle from Atucha II nuclear power plant in Argentina. The main weld material is 20MnMoNi55 and ID welded cladding is made of 309L. The special materials and weld geometry will lead to interesting welding residual stress field. In addition, post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) region and boundary conditions could also play an important role in determining welding residual stress fields. Sensitivity analyses were conducted and the technical observation and comments will conclude the paper.

Com base em um levantamento da produção têxtil de confeccionistas das serras de Córdoba, e na tentativa de reconstruir uma estética regional a partir dos registros de vestimentas em peças arqueológicas das culturas indígenas Comechingonas e da produção etnográfica, este trabalho de pesquisa é proposto como uma contribuição ao design têxtil contemporâneo e identidade. O projeto foi desenvolvido a partir dos conceitos de “Disruptive Design”, ou seja, produzir-criar e consumir-criar de uma forma diferente da habitual (Gardetti, 2017), e de “Strategic Design”, focado em processos de produção mais ecológicos, invertendo os métodos atuais , gerando estratégias de inovação a partir de uma abordagem sustentável que agregue valor ao produto a partir das seguintes diretrizes: a) matérias-primas à base de fibras naturais; b) reaproveitamento de propriedades de tingimento, processos artesanais de tinturas naturais nativas; c) padrão inovador, baseado em tipologias têxteis e uso de ferramentas voltadas para o reaproveitamento de fibras, com desperdício zero; d) conscientização do consumidor em relação ao uso e manutenção das roupas, problemas ambientais no ciclo de vida do produto; e) otimização de sequências e processos de criação-produção de roupas, em que a produção mais limpa está envolvida sob processos controlados (Salcedo, 2014). Design na perspectiva do “luxo cultural” associado a valores como requinte, “bom trabalho”, estética atemporal e valor afetivo (Gardetti, 2017). Outro aspecto importante que foi levado em consideração é a ética do designer na busca de processos inovadores e transformadores, e na promoção do impulso das economias regionais através do emprego, uso de fibras naturais e cooperativismo na produção de designs. A metodologia utilizada foi a observação participante, coleta de dados e fontes primárias. Para isso, foram tomadas estatuetas arqueológicas e tipologias têxteis etnográficas, que se conceituam no processo de criação de cada roupa-acessório-complemento. No processo de design de roupas, foram criadas tipologias nas quais o usuário pode interagir e transformar a roupa desde a desmontagem e/ou montagem em alternância de “desenhos padrão-textura-cor”, de acordo com gostos e preferências, produzindo codesign entre o designer e o usuário, incluindo diferentes tipos de corpo. As coleções desenvolvidas por dois investigadores designers: “Chasca Arqueológica”, projeto de Carola Rossetti e “Chasca Etnográfica”, projeto de Marcela Catalina Mambrini, destacam o têxtil arqueológico-etnográfico, produzindo a recuperação e revalorização do patrimônio têxtil da nossa província, com a valorização e salvaguarda de duas técnicas têxteis em perigo de extinção por falta de transmissão. Os resultados deste trabalho de investigação foram colocados à disposição das cooperativas de produtores têxteis, de forma a começarem a gerir os mecanismos de produção autossustentável e sustentável para regiões vulneráveis do interior da província, com o objetivo de gerar micro têxteis, empreendimentos que consolidam e difundem a identidade cultural da nossa província através do vestuário.

The project "DiverCity" observes spatial diversity in cities from an intersectional point of view and analyzesdifferent forms of urban life with an interdisciplinary approach. The main reason for this research is given by raising sociocultural coexistences living together in urban spaces; a subject that occupies the man from the beginning of his settlements, actually since the early development of cities. In spite of the social changes that are produced within modern urban lifes, the debate about social life very often seems more a matter rooted in politics than in everyday life itself. Societies generate solutions and create its own concept of coexistence, very since allowing joint relationships between different spheres and social groups. But how is this actually done? These dynamics are precisely the main object of investigation in the "DiverCity" project. It therefore focuses its study on socio-cultural minorities and their perception of urban space. This is basically examined in two cities of different dimensions, a small and larger city in Germany, Lüneburg and Hamburg. The investigated minority groups are Muslims, people with disabilities, homeless people and homosexuals. Using empirical social research methods, especially based on semi-structured interviews and participant observation, the urban and spatial perception of the mentioned groups was examined and compared to each other. The presentation shows the first results of the analyzes carried out in Hamburg and Lüneburg as well as the planned extension of the project and its realization in Argentina.

Full textAbstract:
The Atucha II nuclear power plant is a unique pressurized heavy water reactor (PHWR) being constructed in Argentina. The original plant design was by Kraftwerk Union (KWU) in the 1970’s using the German methodology of break preclusion. The plant construction was halted for several decades, but a recent need for power was the driver for restarting the construction. The US NRC developed leak-before-break (LBB) procedures in draft Standard Review Plan (SRP) 3.6.3 for the purpose of eliminating the need to design for dynamic effects that allowed the elimination of pipe whip restraints and jet impingement shields. This SRP was originally written in 1987 with a modest revision in 2005. The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (US NRC) is currently developing a draft Regulatory Guide on what is called the Transition Break Size (TBS). However, modeling crack pipe response in large complex primary piping systems under seismic loading is a difficult analysis challenge due to many factors. The initial published work on the seismic evaluations for the Atucha II plant showed that even with a seismic event with the amplitudes corresponding to the amplitudes for an event with a probability of 1e−6 per year, that a Double-Ended Guillotine Break (DEGB) was pragmatically impossible due to the incredibly high leakage rates and total loss of make-up water inventory. The critical circumferential through-wall flaw size in that case was 94-percent of the circumference. This paper discusses further efforts to show how much higher the applied accelerations would have to be to cause a DEGB for an initial circumferential through-wall crack that was 33 percent around the circumference. This flaw length would also be easily detected by leakage and loss of make-up water inventory. These analyses showed that the applied seismic peak-ground accelerations had to exceed 25 g’s for the case of this through-wall-crack to become a DEGB during a single seismic loading event. This is a factor of 80 times higher than the 1e−6 seismic event accelerations, or 240 times higher than the safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) accelerations.

Full textAbstract:
The Atucha II nuclear power plant is a unique pressurized heavy water reactor being constructed in Argentina. The original plant design was by KWU in the 1970’s using the then German methodology of break preclusion, which assumed that the largest break-opening area would be 10-percent of the cross-sectional area of the largest pipe diameter. That philosophy was used for the design of the emergency core cooling system in the 1970’s. The plant construction was halted for several decades, but a recent need for power was the driver for restarting the construction. The construction is progressing with initial start-up in 2011. Since the 10-percent of the cross-sectional area is a smaller ECCS design requirement than the normally assumed double-ended-guillotine break, the safety evaluation of the plant for beyond design basis seismic loading of the nuclear plant was a regulatory requirement. This overview paper describes a Robust LBB Evaluation that was conducted in great detail to assess the safety aspects of the piping system under beyond design basis seismic loading and the implications to the ECCS. Key aspects involved: • Static and dynamic material property testing, • Determination of weld residual stresses, • Determination of crack sizes that might evolve by worst case SCC growth rates under weld residual stresses and normal operating stresses, • Determination of leakage rates as a function of time with the upper-bounding crack growth rates, • Development of seismic hazard curves for the site, • Development of FE models of the containment building and primary NSSS system within the building, • Determination of normal operating stresses, SSE stresses and 10−6 seismic stresses using worst case soil foundation assumptions, • Evaluation of flaw behavior for circumferential cracks using the shapes from the natural crack growth. • Evaluation of margins on the critical flaw size and times to leakage, and • Standard LBB analyses, as well as Transition Break Size evaluations. The key result from this effort was that even with all the normal operating plus 10−6 seismic event loading, the pipe system behaved more like it was displacement-controlled than load-controlled. The displacement-controlled behavior made the pipe much more flaw tolerant, and it was found that a DEGB was not possible because the flaw could never reach the critical flaw size without greatly surpassing the leakage and water make-up capacity of the plant. Since there are many details in this multi-year effort, only the key points will be summarized in this paper while other details will be the topics of other papers.

Full textAbstract:
The G20 Moscow summit from 2013 highlighted the fact that human resource development remained a major priority for developing countries, especially low-income countries, with important impact on the priorities of other low income countries. When discussing about the current global economic development, about increasing economic competitiveness and reducing economic risks of global crises, we take also into consideration the role that governments and their staff can play in ensuring the adequate implementation of the various policy measures. In order for the government staff to perform at high levels of competence both in high and low income countries, especially in G20 members (Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States of America plus the European Union member states), we consider that continuous education / lifelong learning would be crucial in providing an enabling environment, with e-learning holding a key position, as it enables people, civil servants to deal with future challenges raised by knowledge and information society. In the framework of the technological, normative and procedural evolutions that influence how the staff from public administrations works and possible openness towards e-learning programs, while aware of the various pedagogic, administrative and economic factors that provide incentives as well as drawbacks in using e-learning in providing training to civil servants, we are interested in analyzing e-learning programs developed and used for public administration staff from several G20 states. Our analysis will be focused on assessing the dimensions of the e-learning systems, variety of courses via e-learning platforms, methodologies used in e-learning, possible limitations and challenges in providing e-learning programs to civil servants in several G20 states. The analysis will be conducted using public information available from national agencies with responsibilities in providing such trainings in various G20 states. Our recommendations are oriented towards stimulating the development of an enabling environment for improving inter-agencies and ministerial coordination by intervening at the levels of human resources from the government levels. In this respect, we promote a wider usage of electronic means in lifelong learning for the staff from public administrations and the sharing of information by electronic means aimed at ensuring further human resource development from the public administration. Moreover, we strongly consider that continuous human resource development in the public administration apparatus from the G20 states and knowledge sharing would provide adequate framework for ensuring that government priorities and policy coordination in order to achieve global economic stability, sustainable growth could be achieved, while also contributing to the development of knowledge and information society and economy.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents the IAEA International Project on Innovative Nuclear Reactors and Fuel Cycles (INPRO). It defines its rationale, key objectives and specifies the organizational structure. The IAEA General Conference (2000) has invited “all interested Member States to combine their efforts under the aegis of the Agency in considering the issues of the nuclear fuel cycle, in particular by examining innovative and proliferation-resistant nuclear technology” (GC(44)/RES/21) and invited Member States to consider to contribute to a task force on innovative nuclear reactors and fuel cycle (GC(44)/RES/22). In response to this invitation, the IAEA initiated an “International Project on Innovative Nuclear Reactors and Fuel Cycles”, INPRO. The Terms of Reference for INPRO were adopted at a preparatory meeting in November 2000, and the project was finally launched by the INPRO Steering Committee in May 2001. At the General Conference in 2001, first progress was reported, and the General Conference adopted a resolution on “Agency Activities in the Development of Innovative Nuclear Technology” [GC(45)/RES/12, Tab F], giving INPRO a broad basis of support. The resolution recognized the “unique role that the Agency can play in international collaboration in the nuclear field”. It invited both “interested Member States to contribute to innovative nuclear technology activities” at the Agency as well as the Agency itself “to continue it’s efforts in these areas”. Additional endorsement came in a UN General Assembly resolution in December 2001 (UN GA 2001, A/RES/56/94), that again emphasized “the unique role that the Agency can play in developing user requirements and in addressing safeguards, safety and environmental questions for innovative reactors and their fuel cycles” and stressed “the need for international collaboration in the development of innovative nuclear technology”. As of February 2002, the following countries or entities have become members of INPRO: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, India, Russian Federation, Spain, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Turkey and the European Commission. In total, 15 cost-free experts have been nominated by their respective governments or international organizations. The objective of INPRO is to support the safe, sustainable, economic and proliferation resistant use of nuclear technology to meet the global energy needs of the 21st century. Phase I of INPRO was initiated in May 2001. During Phase I, work is subdivided in two subphases: Phase IA (in progress): Selection of criteria and development of methodologies and guidelines for the comparison of different concepts and approaches, taking into account the compilation and review of such concepts and approaches, and determination of user requirements. Phase IB (to be started after Phase IA is completed): Examination of innovative nuclear energy technologies made available by Member States against criteria and requirements. This examination will be co-ordinated by the Agency and performed with participatio of Member States on the basis of the user requirements and methodologies established in Phase IA. In the first phase, six subject groups were established: Resources, Demand and User requirements for Economics; User requirements for the Environment, Fuel cycle and Waste; User requirements for Safety; User requirements for Non-proliferation; User requirements for crosscutting issues; Criteria and Methodology.
