Abstract: How come the Dominican Republic has become a stable electoral democracy while Haiti has descended into authoritarianism? Back in the mid-20th century, both countries found themselves on a similar plane, yet by the turn of the century their outcomes could not be more different, with Dominicans currently enjoying competitive elections while Haitians witness their country being gripped by political violence. This article examines post-authoritarian transitions in the Dominican Republic and Haiti after both nations endured lengthy neosultanistic dictatorships. The central hypothesis of this work is that although the Dominican Republic and Haiti followed similar historical paths in and out of neosultanistic dictatorships (those of General Rafael Trujillo and the Duvalier family, respectively), in the long term specific domestic factors and missed opportunities—combined with dissimilar international scenarios—led to vastly different outcomes on the road to democratization. According to The Economist Intelligence Unit’s 2021 “Democracy Index,” the Dominican Republic has become an electoral democracy while Haiti has recently been downgraded from a “hybrid regime” into the authoritarian category. As such, the nature of their post-authoritarian transitions, current political systems, and quality of democracy merit comparative examination. Resumen: ¿Cómo es que la República Dominicana se ha convertido en una democracia electoral estable mientras que Haití ha caído en el autoritarismo? A mediados del siglo XX, ambos países se encontraban en un plano similar, pero para el cambio de siglo sus resultados no podrían ser más diferentes, con los dominicanos actualmente celebrando elecciones competitivas mientras que los haitianos ven cómo su país se ve afectado por la violencia política. Este artículo examina las transiciones post-autoritarias en República Dominicana y Haití después de que ambas naciones soportaran largas dictaduras neosultanistas. La hipótesis central de este trabajo es que si bien República Dominicana y Haití siguieron trayectorias históricas similares dentro y fuera de las dictaduras neosultanistas (las del General Rafael Trujillo y la de la familia Duvalier, respectivamente), en el largo plazo factores domésticos específicos y oportunidades perdidas —combinadas con escenarios internacionales disímiles— llevaron a resultados muy diferentes en el camino hacia la democratización. Según el “Índice de democracia” de 2021 de The Economist Intelligence Unit, la República Dominicana se ha convertido en una democracia electoral, mientras que Haití ha sido degradado recientemente de un “régimen híbrido” a la categoría autoritaria. Como tal, la naturaleza de sus transiciones post-autoritarias, los sistemas políticos actuales y la calidad de la democracia merecen un examen comparativo. Résumé: Comment se fait-il que la République Dominicaine soit devenue une démocratie électorale stable alors qu’Haïti a sombré dans l’autoritarisme? Au milieu du XXe siècle, les deux pays se sont retrouvés sur un plan similaire, mais au tournant du siècle, leurs résultats ne pourraient pas être plus différents, les Dominicains bénéficiant actuellement d’élections compétitives tandis que les Haïtiens voient leur pays en proie à la violence politique. Cet article examine les transitions post-autoritaires en République Dominicaine et en Haïti après que les deux nations ont enduré de longues dictatures néosultanistes. L’hypothèse centrale de ce travail est que bien que la République Dominicaine et Haïti aient suivi des chemins historiques similaires dans et hors des dictatures néosultanistes (celles du général Rafael Trujillo et de la famille Duvalier, respectivement), à long terme, des facteurs nationaux spécifiques et des opportunités manquées —combinés à des scénarios internationaux dissemblables— ont conduit à des résultats très différents sur la voie de la démocratisation. Selon l’indice de démocratie 2021 de l’Economist Intelligence Unit, la République Dominicaine est devenue une démocratie électorale tandis qu’Haïti a récemment été rétrogradé d’un “régime hybride” à la catégorie autoritaire. À ce titre, la nature de leurs transitions post-autoritaires, les systèmes politiques actuels et la qualité de la démocratie méritent un examen comparatif.

Resumen: Desde su establecimiento en 1300, la dominicana Provincia de Aragón la fueron configurando los conventos de los Reinos de Aragón, Valencia, Navarra, Mallorca y el Principado de Cataluña con la Cerdaña y el Rosellón, Cerdeña y Sicilia. Si bien la conquista e incorporación del Reino de Navarra a Castilla fue en 1512, no ocurrió lo mismo con los conventos dominicanos navarros que después de diversos intentos de la Corona, sólo culminó su incorporación a la Provincia de España en 1569. Esta segregación ha sido un tema escasamente estudiado por los historiadores y es el que se analiza en este trabajo. Palabras clave: dominicos, Provincia de Aragón, Corona de Castilla, siglo XVAbstract: Since its establishment in 1300, the Dominican Province of Aragon was configured by the convents of the Kingdoms of Aragon, Valencia, Navarra, Mallorca and the Principality of Catalonia (with the Cerdanya and Roussillon), Sardinia and Sicily. Although the conquest and incorporation of the Kingdom of Navarre into Castile was in 1512 not happened the same with the Dominican convents of Navarre, that only after several attempts of the Crown culminated its incorporation into the Province of Spain in 1569. This segregation has been a topic rarely studied by historians and is the main topic of this paper. .Keywords: dominicans, Province of Aragon, Crown of Castile, 15th siecle

AbstractThis interdisciplinary study approximates the Columbian interpretation of the Taí nos – filtered and re-interpreted by the Dominican people, through their museums. Cultural phenomena such as vomitic spatulas, ‘talking’ idols, hallucinogens, infant cranial deformation, dances, nudity, sexual customs, punishments, and live burial produced Columbus's tendency to denounce the Taínos in his writings. These texts are displayed in the Museo del Hombre Dominicano side-by-side with anthropological exhibitions. Together, these texts and artifacts become purveyors of an ideology, one which Dominicans use to challenge the Eurocentric, romanticising, Noble Savage approach propagated during the Quincentennial.

The Dominican Mission in the Philippines has many facets in its establishment, animated by its first missionaries: from an arduous fighter for justice to a zealous preacher of the faith to a caring father to his spiritual children, among others. This article presents an overview of the first fifty years of the Dominican presence in the Philippines (1581-1631). It situates the mission as a response to the call of preaching, which the Dominicans hold as their dutiful task in the Church. While the Dominicans officially started their missionary works in 1587, the study traces the development of the Dominican Mission from the arrival of the first Bishop of the Philippines and one of the first two Dominicans who set foot on the Philippine soil, Fray Domingo de Salazar. It specifically focuses on his stand on the state of affairs during the early years of the Spanish colonization of the islands, particularly on the issues of injustices. Thereafter, the study addresses the questions about the birth of the Dominican missionary Province of the Holy Rosary, i.e. how it came about, who the first missionaries were, where the Dominicans’ first mission stations in the Philippines were, etc. It gives particular attention to the Dominican pastoral labors during this period. It further indicates how the missionaries’ renewed zeal and devoted practice of the religious life readied them to persevere in their precarious task of preaching the Gospel in hostile territories and endure the uncertainties of their circumstances.

Abstract This article looks at Rita Indiana’s performance work and latest novel as an example of Dominican futurism. Dominican futurism, like its counterpart Afrofuturism, centers the Dominican body in a technologically enhanced future, positioning it within a speculative world in which Dominicans are the agents of change. This article argues that Indiana’s version of Dominican futurism engages with “negative aesthetics”—defined here as the aesthetics of disorientation, dystopia, and disgust. Negative aesthetics offer a way of staying with the pain and unrest of trauma in speculative texts. The author posits a lineage of negative aesthetics in the Dominican literary tradition, which we can trace back to the work of the Dominican pessimist writers in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. While the writers articulating this outlook were invested in colonial attitudes such as anti-Blackness, however, Indiana puts forth a feminist and queer of color version that continues the aesthetic practice while also offering a radical departure by critiquing colonial and neocolonial categories. This article contends that in her Dominican futurism, Indiana pairs the speculative with negative aesthetics to point toward a future that is hopeful while being attentive to the trauma of the past and present.

Spiritual leadership in the education field is not something new. However, it has not been deeply examined. The studies on spiritual leadership are more easily found in the non-educational than in educational fields (Scott & Tweed, 2016). For that reason, drawing on spiritual leadership and Dominican spirituality, the researcher examined how Dominican Schools in Indonesia integrate Dominican spirituality and leadership in their teaching performances. A leadership styles (Lewin’s leadership styles) questionnaire and collaborative leadership survey through Google form was conducted to collect data from 114 high school teachers of six Dominican Schools in Indonesia. The study results were a) Dominican spirituality provides unity of leadership styles among the high school teachers at Dominical Schools, b) leadership styles adopted by teachers are in line with Dominican spirituality leadership. Therefore, a positive correlation between Dominican spirituality and educational leadership was rooted in the values and vision of Dominican Educational Institution and became an educational leadership identity among high school teachers. The researcher suggests that curriculum designers and education facilitators collaborate to include and practice Dominican spiritual leadership as one of the principles and visions in Dominican educational institutions. It can also be used to describe other institutions with similar charisms. This study also advises that future researchers perform a poll on "Dominican Spiritual Leadership" using quantitative research methodologies. It is necessary to investigate the relationship between Dominican spiritual leadership and other educational characteristics in-depth. Educational levels, teaching experience, gender, community culture, and other factors may influence stakeholders in Dominican schools and other educational institutions worldwide.

Dominican-descended people in the United States are one of the most dynamic Spanish-speaking, Caribbean, and Latin American ethnic and cultural communities in the United States. Whether in the Dominican Republic or as members of a transnational community, the Dominican population is one with a long and rich history of challenging the powers that be, unjust acts, and oppressive laws within the communities they inhabit through their civic engagement. This essay aims to address one question: as Dominican society and the world have largely evolved, what has been the role of U.S.-based online media in sustaining, disseminating and rescuing the long tradition of civic involvement and struggle exemplified by Dominicans at home and abroad? To answer that question, we explore the role of the ongoing online Dominican-centric magazine ESENDOM to demonstrate how online journalism documents activism within the Dominican community. ESENDOM and similar media have filled gaps that the mainstream media has failed to fulfill as there is a media blackout on the Dominican Republic and its people. This project is one about activism. This humanistic project documents some of the most important social movements to take place in the Dominican Republic and the United States in the past thirteen years (2009-2022), coinciding with the founding of ESENDOM in 2009. This project will present a timeline and an attempt to chart a chronology of political dissent and social struggles within Dominican communities in the United States and the Dominican Republic.

Abstract: for Yuri Lotman, a student of semiotics of culture, the language has two levels, to know, natural and cultural, both of which influence each other. The Dominican Republic, a Caribbean country of spanish colonization and Catholic population, has numerous symbols that preserve this history. In view of this, with the present article, we propose to conceptualize the levels of language from Yuri Lotman's Theory, to analyze the historical symbols and clippings of the constitution of the Dominican Republic, from dispose, to present how the religious language and political language are related in the sense of construction an imaginary fatherland giving meaning to the identity of the Dominican people. Our methodology is based on bibliographical research and content analysis that analysis some symbols and spaces demonstrating the connection between the religious and political spheres. Finally, we think that despite the state's secularity, religious symbols played a fundamental role in the construction of the imaginary country.Cultura, Religión y Estado: el Imaginario Patrio de la República Dominicana y el Lenguaje ReligiosoPara Yuri Lotman, estudioso de la semiótica de la cultura, el lenguaje posee dos niveles; los cuales son natural y cultural, siendo que los dos se influencian.

Delante de esto, con el presente artículo proponemos conceptualizar los niveles de lenguaje a partir de la teoría de Yuri Lotman, analizar los símbolos y recortes históricos de la constitución de la Republica Dominicana y, a partir de este, presentar como el lenguaje religioso y el lenguaje político se relacionan en el sentido de construir un imaginario patrio dándole sentido a la identidad del pueblo dominicano. Nuestra metodología se basa en la investigación bibliográfica y análisis de contenido en el cual analizando algunos símbolos y espacios, demostramos la conexión entre la esfera religiosa y política. En fin, pensamos, que a pesar del secularismo del Estado, los símbolos religiosos han desempeñado un papel fundamental en la construcción do imaginario patrio.Cultura, Religião e Estado: o imaginário pátrio da República Dominicana e a Linguagem ReligiosaResumo: para Yuri Lotman, estudioso da semiótica da cultura, a linguagem possui dois níveis, a saber, natural e cultural, sendo que os dois se influenciam.

The first fossil palm bruchid, Caryobruchus dominicanus sp. n. (Coleoptera; Bruchidae) is described from Dominican Republic amber. This species is closely related to extant Central American-West Indian members of the genus, all of which develop in the seeds of palms. Aside from providing indirect evidence of fan palms, especially those of the genus Sabal, in the original Dominican amber forest, the present find shows that seed predation by Caryobruchus spp. was established in the West Indies some 15-45 million years ago.

Objectives Hispanics with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in the United States have more severe disease and damage accrual compared with whites. Data on Hispanics of similar ancestry in geographically different locations is limited but essential in defining genetic and environmental factors for SLE. This study evaluates SLE disease burden in two Dominican communities, Washington Heights in New York City (NYC) and Santiago in the Dominican Republic (DR). Methods Disease activity (SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K)) and damage (Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology Damage Index (SDI)) were cross-sectionally measured in 76 Dominican SLE patients from the Columbia University Lupus Cohort in NYC and compared with 75 Dominican SLE patients living in Santiago in the DR. Results Mean (±SD) age was 40 (±14) and 36 (±11) years for NYC and DR patients, respectively. Median disease duration was 8 years. Disease activity was mild in both groups (SLEDAI-2K of 3 in NYC versus 4 in the DR). NYC Dominicans had more discoid lesions, positive anti-dsDNA, and anti-SSB antibodies. Dominicans in the DR used more corticosteroids, had less medical insurance, lower educational level, and were more likely to be unemployed, whereas more Dominicans in NYC smoked. NYC patients had a higher SDI compared with SLE patients in the DR (0.96 versus 0.24, p < 0.0001). Statistical significance was maintained in adjusted analysis (1.26 versus 0.57, p < 0.0001). Conclusion SLE Dominican patients in NYC had a higher SDI than those in the DR. Longitudinal studies are needed to ascertain whether this difference is due to biological, environmental factors, immigration patterns or a survival bias.

This article interprets data from five key points in the relationship between the Order of Preachers (the Dominicans) and the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) to develop guidelines about how this relationship can help or hinder the work of these two religious orders within the Roman Catholic Church. It concludes that conflictual relationships between the groups tend to hinder their work while collaborative relationships tend to amplify their work. The particular historical events studied are: early Dominican criticism of the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola; the different ways that Dominicans and Jesuits employed Mary in their dealings with Muslims in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries; the de auxiliis controversy about the relationship between grace and free will; the founding of rival Dominican and Jesuit biblical schools at the beginning of the twentieth century; and the positive collaboration between Dominican Yves Congar and Jesuit Karl Rahner at the Second Vatican Council.

AbstractThis article examines North Atlantic views of Protestant missions and race in the Dominican Republic between 1905 and 1911, a brief period of political stability in the years leading up to the U.S. Occupation (1916–1924). Although Protestant missions during this period remained small in scale on the Catholic island, the views of British and American missionaries evidence how international perceptions of Dominicans transformed in the early twentieth century. Thus, this article makes two key interventions within the literature on Caribbean race and religion. First, it shows how outsiders’ ideas about the Dominican Republic's racial composition aimed to change the Dominican Republic from a “black” country into a racially ambiguous “Latin” one on the international stage. Second, in using North Atlantic missionaries’ perspectives to track this shift, it argues that black-led Protestant congregations represented a possible alternative future that both elite Dominicans and white North Atlantic missionaries rejected.

Abstract Recent conservation work by The Peregrine Fund has established a translocated population of the Critically Endangered Ridgway’s Hawk (Buteo ridgwayi) in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Although Ridgway’s Hawk has been the focus of extensive conservation work, relatively little has been published about this species’ pre-breeding behavior. In this study, we collected behavioral observations and vocalization recordings of three established pairs of Ridgway’s Hawks in Punta Cana in January 2018, in order to better characterize this species’ pre-breeding behavior. Consistent with prior studies of Ridgway’s Hawks in Los Haitises National Park, Dominican Republic, our behavioral observations of hawks in Punta Cana suggest social and sexual monogamy in this species. Notably, our observations suggest a higher frequency of copulations between members of a pair in Punta Cana than was previously observed in the Los Haitises population. These observations provide additional context for understanding this species’ pre-breeding behavior and sexual behavior, particularly in this small but growing translocated population. Keywords behavior, Buteo ridgwayi, Dominican Republic, Ridgway’s Hawk, vocalizations Resumen Comportamiento pre-reproductivo del Gavilán de La Española (Buteo ridgwayi) en Punta Cana, República Dominicana • Los recientes trabajos de conservación de The Peregrine Fund han establecido una población translocada del Gavilán de La Española (Buteo ridgwayi), especie en peligro crítico de extinción, en Punta Cana, República Dominicana. Aunque este gavilán ha sido objeto de un extenso trabajo de conservación, se ha publicado relativamente poco sobre el comportamiento pre-reproductivo de esta especie. En este estudio, recolectamos observaciones conductuales y grabaciones de vocalización de tres parejas establecidas de Gavilán de La Española en Punta Cana en enero de 2018, con el fin de caracterizar mejor el comportamiento pre-reproductivo de esta especie. Nuestras observaciones de comportamiento de esta especie en Punta Cana sugieren monogamia social y sexual en ella, en consonancia con estudios previos de individuos de Gavilán de La Española en el Parque Nacional Los Haitises, República Dominicana. En particular, nuestras observaciones sugieren una mayor frecuencia de cópulas entre miembros de una pareja en Punta Cana que la observada previamente en la población de Los Haitises. Estas observaciones proporcionan un contexto adicional para comprender el comportamiento pre-reproductivo y sexual de esta especie, particularmente en esta pequeña pero creciente población translocada. Palabras clave Buteo ridgwayi, comportamiento, Gavilán de La Española, República Dominicana, vocalizaciones Résumé Comportement prénuptial de la buse de Ridgway (Buteo ridgwayi) à Punta Cana, République dominicaine • Le Peregrine Fund a récemment établi une population de Buse de Ridgway (Buteo ridgwayi) – une espèce en danger critique d’extinction – à Punta Cana, en République dominicaine. Bien que la Buse de Ridgway ait fait l’objet d’un important travail de conservation, relativement peu de choses ont été publiées sur le comportement prénuptial de cette espèce. Dans cette étude, nous avons recueilli des observations comportementales et des enregistrements de vocalisations de trois couples établis à Punta Cana en janvier 2018, afin de mieux caractériser le comportement prénuptial de l’espèce. Conformément à des études antérieures sur les Buses de Ridgway dans le Parc national de Los Haitises, en République dominicaine, nos observations du comportement de ce rapace à Punta Cana indiquent une monogamie sociale et sexuelle chez cette espèce. Il ressort notamment de nos observations que la fréquence des copulations entre les membres d’un couple est plus élevée à Punta Cana que celle observée précédemment dans la population de Los Haitises. Ces observations fournissent des informations supplémentaires pour comprendre le comportement préreproducteur et le comportement sexuel de l’espèce, en particulier dans cette population transférée, encore réduite mais croissante.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article examines how Dominican musicians, festival organizers, and their audiences negotiate two rather slippery concepts: the complex of creole/creolization/créolité ; and the question of borders and (im)mobilities, in other words who moves where and how. Music provides sites and sounds in which creole possibilities and mobilities of various kinds are explored, challenged, and rethought. I illustrate these ideas with reference to two types of expressly creole, Dominican popular music (cadence-lypso and bouyon) and their central role in Dominica’s World Creole Music Festival. Both genres find artists reflecting on what it means to perform creole music and how such performances might facilitate new mobilities. The World Creole Music Festival stages these genres as part of an attempt to generate global creole solidarities. The significant challenges confronting this endeavor suggest that a reevaluation of what creole can mean in Dominica and a better understanding of how these meanings are embedded in contemporary mobilities can yield new insights not only into the production and staging of Caribbean genres, but also into the nature of the creole itself.

Inicialmente la migrante haitiana en República Dominicana era caracterizada por ser la «acompañante» del hombre dentro de los Bateyes. La urbanización de la migración le permitió introducirse en una nueva corriente compleja y heterogénea como nueva sujeta migratoria. Este artículo tiene como objetivo contextualizar las trasformaciones dentro del nuevo sistema migratorio haitiano junto con identificar a la mujer haitiana como protagonista migrante en las zonas urbanas de la República Dominicana.
FEMINIZATION AND URBANIZATION OF HAITIAN FEMALE MIGRANTS IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC: APPROACHING THEIR CHARACTERIZATIONABSTRACTFemale migrants from Haiti to the Dominican Republic were initially characterized as the men’s «companions» in the rural sugar cane compounds. The urbanization of migration allowed women to join a new complex and heterogeneous stream as migrants. The aim of this article is to contextualize transformations taking place within the new migratory system in Haiti as well as to identify Haitian women as migration protagonists in the urban areas of the Dominican Republic.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In late-sixteenth-century Manila, Spanish Dominican missionaries sought to convert Chinese merchants from Fujian Province known as Sangleys. The Dominican-Sangley encounter unfolded in a segregated Chinese quarter known as the Parián. This local encounter had outsize implications for an emerging early modern Pacific World: it enabled a lucrative transpacific trade that connected the histories of America and Asia, and it provided a foothold in Manila for both Dominicans and Sangleys to meet their respective spiritual and commercial goals. Dominicans offered protection to Sangleys with the intention of using their networks to reach China and evangelize there, while Sangleys understood that Dominicans were essential to their residency and prosperity in this Spanish colony. Sangley leverage in transpacific commerce, however, ultimately undermined missionary aspirations. Spanish Christian universalism, honed in prior New World conquests, lost ground to the religious pluralism of maritime Asia. Manila thus became a purgatory for the Dominicans, where Spanish Christian expansionism had to coexist with a burgeoning transpacific trade that required mutual accommodations.

The objective of this essay is to show a still untapped source for the history of the Polish Dominican Order and the history of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, which is the work of Wawrzyniec Teleżyński entitled Adnotationes. The article presents a brief biography of this outstanding Dominican historian and discusses his other works, both published in print and in manuscript. Adnotationes provides a wealth of unknown and otherwise unused information on the history of the Dominicans in the modern era. This study also discusses a unique literary text that Teleżyński included in his book, namely a poem by a Dominican nun written after her monastery in Lviv had been closed down in the wake of Joseph ii’s policies against the Church.

Abstract In Haitian-Dominican Counterpoint (2003), Eugenio Matibag argues that the two nations of Hispaniola have developed a symbiotic relation largely ignored by scholars, who generally regard their rapport as solely conflictual. Matibag notes the responsibility of “state-sponsored” nationalist discourses in the buildup of centuries-old tensions that have shaped the sense of collective identity on the island. His close examination of the history of paninsular relations reveals a pattern of complementariness rather than competition, especially in economic terms. Matibag, however, offers a predominantly Dominican perspective on Hispaniola, as most evident in his discussion of the Haitian figure in Dominican literature. While the pivotal part played by Haitianness in the Dominican psyche has come under increasing scrutiny in recent scholarship, the analysis of the converse phenomenon has received far less attention. This article examines the symbolic role of Dominicanness in the Haitian literary imaginary. After a succinct recapitulation of common depictions of Haitianness in the Dominican imaginary and collective identity, followed by a survey of the gendered characterization of Dominicans in Caribbean writing and societies at large, this article briefly turns to Dominican representations in Edwidge Danticat’s “Between the Pool and the Gardenias” (1993) and The Farming of Bones (1998) and then to the portrayal of the Dominican specter that figures in Gary Victor’s A l’angle des rues parallèles (2003). Perhaps unexpectedly, these Haitian texts published around the turn of the millennium illustrate in many ways the complementariness and collaboration that Matibag regards as characteristic of paninsular relations on Hispaniola.

AbstractSeven new species of Milichiella are described from Dominican amber: M. archaia n. sp., M. dolichosurstyla n. sp., M. dominicana n. sp., M. hennigi n. sp., M. margaretae n. sp., M. quadrisetosa n. sp., and M. theodori n. sp. These species represent the first record of the sub-family Milichiinae in amber and the first descriptions of the family in Dominican amber. The fossil species differ from extant species only in species-level details except M. archaia, which probably belongs to the stemline of Milichiella + Ulia.

Structural inequalities in the U.S. work environment place most immigrants in low paying, high-risk jobs. Understanding how work experiences and influence the health of different immigrant populations is essential to address disparities. This article explores how Brazilian and Dominican immigrants feel about their experiences working in the U.S. and how the relationship between work and culture might impact their health. In partnership with the Dominican Development Center and the Brazilian Worker Center, we held five cultural conversations (CCs) with Brazilians (n = 48) and five with Dominicans (n = 40). CCs are participatory, unstructured groups facilitated by representatives from or embedded in the community. Brazilian immigrants focused on physical health and the American Dream while Dominicans immigrants emphasized concerns about the influence of work on mental health. Dominicans’ longer tenure in the U.S. and differences in how Brazilians and Dominicans are racialized in the region might account for the variation in perspectives between groups. Future studies should further investigate the relationship between health and how immigrants’ work lives are shaped by culture, race and immigrant status.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The Myristicaceae is a member of the early diverging angiosperm order Magnoliales; however, the family is poorly represented by fossil collections. We describe Virola dominicana sp. nov. (Myristicaceae), the first record of fossilized Myristicaceae flowers, from mid-Tertiary (45–15 million years ago) Dominican amber. The description is based on 24 male flowers in 17 pieces of amber, thus providing some indication of intraspecific variation, including a two-tepaled flower. Diagnostic characters of the new species are the long-simple or few-branched trichomes on the perianth margins, the small pollen grains, and a short staminal column. These fossils also show co-occurring insects, some of which could be Virola pollinators. It is speculated that V. dominicana disappeared from Hispaniola during the Pliocene–Pleistocene cooling events leaving no native members of the Myristicaceae in this region today. Additionally, these fossils demonstrate that Myristicaceae was present in the Western Hemisphere during the mid-Tertiary.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This research paper revolves around the influence of the Dominicans in the Philippines in terms of Marian devotions. It discusses the rich Marian pious exercises that originated from the Dominican Order also known as the Order of Preachers. These practices were handed down by the Dominican missionaries since 1587. One of the charisms of the Dominicans is the propagation of the Holy Rosary. This pious exercise was highlighted through its history and connectedness to the Friars Preachers and how it helped in the evangelization of the missionaries. The establishment of Marian shrines has been one of the legacies of the Dominican missionaries specially in the northern part of the archipelago which up to now are still in existence. The shrines of Our Lady of the Rosary, La Naval de Manila and the Shrine of Our Lady of the Rosary Manaoag, Pangasinan, are two notable sanctuaries dedicated to the promotion of the Holy Rosary. These Marian liturgical and devotional practices followed the principles of Vatican II’s Chapter Eight of Lumen Gentium and the Marialis Cultus of St. Pope Paul VI. Finally in the last part of the article, it discusses how the Dominicans adopted to the “new normal” of promoting Marian devotions through online means and the use of social media platforms. While at the same time remaining faithful and rooted in the principles set by the Directory on Popular Piety and Liturgy.

The aim of this article is to analyze Angie Cruz’s novel Dominicana from a multicultural and gender perspective focusing on how Cruz introduces the female body as a metaphor for the immigrant experience lived by Dominican Women during the 1960s in the United States. Also, this paper studies how the female body becomes a metaphorical border in the diasporic experience for the central character as a way to depict an essentially female in-between-space. Thus, Cruz rewrites and recreates from the female body the diasporic experience of Dominican women immigrants in New York from an intersectional perspective.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
AbstractIn the 1980s and 1990s, economic crisis produced ideological convergence in many Latin American party systems. Much scholarship explores how this convergence frequently provoked system change that enabled renewed ideological differentiation, but little research examines instances where convergence persisted without destabilizing the system. Through comparative historical analysis of Dominican continuity amid regional change, this study identifies factors that sustain or challenge party systems. Then, through analysis of Americas Barometer surveys, it assesses the causal mechanisms through which these factors shape support for the traditional Dominican parties. The findings demonstrate that maintaining programmatic and clientelist linkages facilitates continuity. In addition, the article argues that the threats political outsiders pose to existing party systems are constrained when people excluded from the system are divided and demobilized. In the Dominican case, Haitian immigration divides the popular sector while Dominicans abroad sustain ties to the parties, with both migration flows facilitating party system continuity.

Abstract.TEACHER SELF-EFFICACY AND PERSONAL STRENGTHS AND VIRTUES IN TEACHERS FROM DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.The aim of this research it to analyze the relationship between perceived teacher efficacy and personal strengths and virtues. For it, 564 teachers from Dominican Republic took part in the study, 29.6% males and 70.4% females, mean age of 39.72 years (SD = 8.09), and an average teaching experience of 15.67 years (SD = 3.83). Teachers developed their professional activity in 18 provinces of the 32 that integrate Dominican Republic. Three instruments were used for data collection: the Teacher Efficacy Scale (Teacher Efficacy Scale-Short Form), the Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale (Teacher’s Sense of Efficacy Scale-Short Form), and the Personal Strengths Questionnaire VIA (Values in Action Inventory of Strengths: VIA-IS). The psychometric characteristics of the instruments (reliability and validity) were evaluated. The results obtained through the analysis of correlation revealed a positive relationship between the different subscales of the two tests used to evaluate teacher self-efficacy as well as between teacher self-efficacy and the personal strengths and virtues of teachers. The highest correlations were found with the personal strengths of Wisdom and Knowledge, on the one hand, and Humanity, on the other. The need to incorporate in the training, initial and permanent, the work of strengths and personal virtues as the basis of development and personal and professional effectiveness is discussed.Keywords: teacher efficacy, teacher self-efficacy, personal strengths and virtues, Dominican RepublicResumen.El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar la relación entre la percepción de eficacia docente y las fortalezas y virtudes personales en docentes dominicanos.

Resum: L’any 1738, un frare del convent de Sant Domingo de Palma havia de defensar unes «Conclusions literàries» teològiques, dedicades a la beata dominica Llúcia de Narni. El full de propaganda de l’acte que s’havia repartit duia impresa una làmina de la beata, amb les llagues dels estigmes a les mans i al costat. El tribunal de la inquisició, arran d’una denúncia dels franciscans observants, va manar que se suspengués aquest acte acadèmic. Els dominics apel·laren a Madrid i a Roma. Aquest és un exemple més de com les dones -a més d’altres estigmatitzats- foren víctimes de l’actitud monopolista dels franciscans, així com una expressió dels enfrontaments crònics entre els ordes mendicants mallorquins. Paraules clau: Estigmatitzats, Dominics, Franciscans, Mallorca Abstract: In 1738, in the church of the convent at Santo Domingo at Palma, a friar offers some theological ‘literal conclusions’ which he dedicates to the Blessed dominican Lucía de Narni. The Propaganda Act is written on a sheet, and having been distributed, mentions the stigmata on the hands and side of the blessed. The Inquisition, influenced by the Franciscans, denounces and orders the suspension of the designated academic ceremony. The Dominicans appeal to Madrid and Rome. This is another example of women, along with other stigmatized, that were victims of the monopolistic attitude of the Franciscans. It is also an expression of the chronic confrontations between the two mendicants orders in Mallorca. Keywords: Stigmatized, Dominican, Franciscan, Mallorca

This study examines the political-economy of baseball in the Dominican Republic from a critical perspective. As such, the presence of American major league teams is seen to have a deleterious structural effect on the autonomy and quality of baseball in the Dominican Republic. In particular, in attempting to develop the game, U.S. interests—like those of other multinationals—are underdeveloping the game. A second dimension to this study views baseball as an American popular cultural form that functions to soften the regular, hostile responses of Dominicans to American political and economic domination of their country. Thus, while serving to reproduce U.S. control, baseball takes on the appearance of a benevolent, even helpful, cultural institution.

In his letter to the Master of the Dominican Order on the occasion of the 800th Dies Natalis of Saint Dominic, Pope Francis praised the School of Salamanca as being “perhaps the finest expression” of the “unity of truth and charity” that he adverted to as the founding inspiration and formative charism of the Order. This article investigates the experience of the School of Salamanca, how its core dynamic termed as the “Salamanca Process” embodies the charism of the Dominican Order, and the ongoing attempt to recover it as a model for the life and mission of Dominicans today as expressed in official documents of the Order, especially in recent General Chapters.

The mendican Orders, Dominicans and Franciscans, played a significant religious, economic, and cultural role over the past centuries at Warka in Mazovia. The foundation of the Dominican monastery was historically linked to the person of Duke Siemowit I. The Warka Dominican monastery, founded in the middle of the 13th century, next to the monasteries of St Dominic in Płock and of St Nicholas at Sochaczew belonging to the Mazovian contrat, is considered one of the oldest foundations of this order in Poland. In the mid-17th century, the Franciscans were brought to Warka. The foundress of the monastery was Katarzyna of Boglewice Trzebińska. With their presence, the Franciscans contributed to the religious revival of the town.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In the times of Fabian Birkowski, OP, the notion of the Dominican Family comprised three forms of community life. They were represented by the preaching friars, cloistered nuns, and lay Dominicans. There were numerous saints and blessed who used to be members of those orders and the memory of them was perpetuated in, among others, the religious oratory of the 17th century. Among the preachers of those days, Father Fabian holds a prominent place as an author of Latin oratories and sermons de sanctis delivered in the Polish language. The fact that a large portion of the speeches dedicated to saints, which he included in the collection Orationes ecclesiasticae, dealt with Dominican saints indicates Birkowski’s particularly strong spiritual bond with members of the monastic community that he himself belong to. The aim of the article is to attempt to make a typology of Birkowski’s texts dedicated to saints of the Dominican Family, to give their general characteristics, as well as to demonstrate literary proofs of the spiritual relationship which linked Birkowski and representatives of his own monastic family.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Over the last decade, Dominican American Hollywood actress Zoe Saldaña has graced countless magazine covers and starred in numerous blockbuster films viewed worldwide. Her mixed-race body and her ability to visually represent both black and Latina identity have had broad appeal in the global marketplace. This transnational feminist cultural studies analysis of Saldaña as text argues that narratives of her racial identity as Dominican and her resulting racial malleability allow viewers to project a wide range of racialized fantasies onto her Afro-Latina body. It proposes that the fact that Saldaña’s blackness is in flux, depending on where she is read and whether she is read by US or Dominican racial logics, makes her that much more provocative to viewers. Ethnographic notes on her reception in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, illustrate the shifting significance of her identity as her image crosses borders. Examinations of Saldaña in print advertising, on Calvin Klein’s interactive website, and in the films Avatar (2009) and The Losers (2010) reveal how her racialized femininity can be mobilized as well as customized for viewers as they choose how to interpret her racial meaning. Saldaña’s visual ambiguity in black-and-white advertising has now been transformed into the ambiguity of exoticized nonhuman species and performed under blue and green makeup. Nevertheless, narratives about her identity that viewers carry shape how she is read and desired, even as an alien from an intergalactic future. RESUMEN Durante la última década, la actriz de Hollywood Zoe Saldaña, dominicano-estadounidense, ha aparecido en innumerables portadas de revistas y ha protagonizado numerosas películas de gran éxito vistas en todo el mundo. Según se ha visto, su cuerpo de raza mixta y su capacidad de representar visualmente tanto la identidad negra como la latina tienen un gran atractivo en el mercado global. En el presente análisis de Saldaña como texto, que se fundamenta teóricamente en el feminismo transnacional y los estudios culturales, sostengo que las narrativas de la identidad racial de Saldaña como dominicana, y su resultante maleabilidad racial, permiten al público proyectar una gran variedad de fantasías racializadas sobre su cuerpo afrolatino. Sostengo que el hecho de que la negritud de Saldaña sea de difícil definición la hace tanto más provocativa para el público espectador, ya que depende de dónde la lean y de si la leen las lógicas raciales estadounidenses o dominicanas. Algunas notas etnográficas sobre su recepción en Santo Domingo, República Dominicana, constituyen un ejemplo de cómo cambia su identidad cuando su imagen cruza fronteras. Los análisis de Saldaña en publicidad impresa, en el sitio web interactivo de Calvin Klein y en las películas Avatar (2009) y The Losers (2010) revelan las maneras en que su feminidad racializada puede ser aprovechada y personalizada para un público que decide cómo va a interpretarla en términos raciales. La ambigüedad visual de Saldaña en la publicidad en blanco y negro ahora ha sido transformada en la ambigüedad de especies exóticas no humanas, y ha sido puesta en escena con maquillaje azul y verde. Sin embargo, las ideas preconcebidas que tiene el público sobre su identidad condicionan la manera en que se la lee y se la desea, incluso cuando hace el papel de alienígena de un futuro intergaláctico. RESUMO Na última década, a atriz domínico-americana Zoe Saldaña apareceu na capa de inúmeras revistas e estrelou muitos filmes de sucesso exibidos em todo o mundo. Seu corpo mestiço e sua habilidade de visualmente representar a identidade tanto latina quanto negra demonstraram ter amplo apelo no mercado global. Nesta análise – proveniente dos estudos culturais transnacionais feministas – de Saldaña como texto, eu argumento que as narrativas de sua identidade racial como dominicana e sua resultante maleabilidade racial permitem que espectadores projetem um amplo espectro de fantasias racializadas sobre o seu corpo afro-latino. Eu argumento que o fato de a negritude de Saldaña estar em fluxo, dependendo de onde ela é lida e se ela é lida por lógicas raciais americanas ou dominicanas, a torna tanto mais provocativa aos espectadores. Anotações etnográficas sobre sua recepção em Santo Domingo, na República Dominicana, ilustram a mudança de significado de sua identidade à medida que sua imagem cruza as fronteiras. Averiguação sobre Saldaña em publicidade impressa, no site interativo da Calvin Klein e nos filmes Avatar (2009) e Os Perdedores (2010), revelam os modos pelos quais sua feminilidade racializada pode ser mobilizada, assim como customizada, por espectadores ao passo que eles escolhem como interpretar seu significado racial. A ambiguidade visual de Saldaña na publicidade em preto e branco é agora transformada na ambiguidade de um espécie não-humana exoticizada e performada sob maquiagem azul e verde. No entanto, narrativas sobre sua identidade que o espectador carrega informam como ela está sendo lida e desejada, mesmo como uma alienígena do futuro intergaláctico.

This study examines racial tolerance through the intersection of the media, fans, and the Boston Red Sox. Through the 1998 season Red Sox home games in which Dominican Pedro Martinez pitched attracted large numbers of Latinos. This marked the first time that large numbers of people of color regularly attended Fenway Park. Media reports simultaneously promoted both an awareness of this cultural phenomenon and portrayed it as widely applauded. In presenting a story of Boston’s “embracing the ace,” the media reports also wound up pushing a view of widespread approval of the new Latino presence both in Fenway and society at large. This study sought to compare the impressions of widespread exuberance for Martinez and the Dominicans at the Park with actual interviews of those Anglos at the Park. It also sought to examine what motivated the Dominicans to attend in such large numbers and to so publicly celebrate their identity. The results showed that Anglos held a fractured view about Dominicans: a very positive view of Pedro Martinez as a Dominican but a fairly evenly split view of Dominicans in general. For their part, Dominicans were unconcerned with what Anglos thought and came to the game only to lend support to their Latino hero, as well as bask in his reflected glow. One methodological conclusion arrived at is that media content analysis must be cross checked against some sort of data and must not be assumed to accurately reflect social reality.

Since 1980, more than a dozen estimates of the number of Dominicans living in the U.S. or abroad have converged on 500,000. Both the 1980 U.S. Census and the 1981 Dominican Republic Census counts, however, suggest there were fewer than 200,000 at that time. Seven years later, estimates, even of the available “pool” of Dominican migrants, are well below 500,000, and it is difficult to justify empirically an estimate of more than 300,000. This article examines the 500,000 figure and concludes that it is overestimated, possibly because of the difficulty of estimation, the tendency to repeat unsubstantiated estimates, and the incorrect interpretation of missing values. Because larger estimates may also serve political purposes, however, they may achieve a political reality as “conventional numbers”.

This response essay argues that the hyperfocus on what defines appropriate behavior among Afro-descended populations issues from structural white supremacy. One of the messages in the author’s Colonial Phantoms: Belonging and Refusal in the Dominican Americas, from the 19th Century to the Present (2018) is that efforts against antiblackness (and a concomitant anti-Haitianness) in the Dominican Republic cannot be accompanied by the tired chastisement that Dominicans do not perform their African descent in ways appealing to the US gaze. In other words, the faster we can accept that subjects of the African diaspora have been damaged by white supremacy and colonialism differently, the faster we can figure out how to sprout out of the rotting episteme created by Man. Plants can and do grow from rot.
