“La Evolución Del Concepto “Frontera” Dentro Del Desarrollo Capitalista”, Daniel Añorve
Daniel Añorve
El presente trabajo identifica los tres grandes entendimientos que ha tenido el concepto "frontera" dentro del desarrollo capitalista: 1) La frontera territorial; 2) La frontera ideológica; 3) La frontera postmoderna o virtual. La frontera es entendida como una válvula de escape a las crisis capitalistas. Adicionalmente, representa la posibilidad de saneamiento del sistema, al reconstituir los espacios sobre los que actúa. Sin embargo, toda apertura de nuevas fronteras, trae aparejada la clausura de acuerdos económicos, sociales, culturales y últimamente de paquetes divinatorios previos. Finalmente, se argumenta que no hay límite a la expansión de las fronteras, pues el entendimiento actual …
Unearthing The Truth: The Politics Of Exhumations In Cyprus And Spain, Iosif Kovras
Unearthing The Truth: The Politics Of Exhumations In Cyprus And Spain, Iosif Kovras
Iosif Kovras
Contrary to the experience of other countries with memories of clandestine violence and “missing persons”, where the mobilisation of the (civil) society towards “truth recovery” was immediate and pivotal, the societies of Cyprus and Spain remained silent for a remarkably long period of time. This article aspires to explain the reasons why both Cypriot communities and the Spanish society did not manage, until recently, to comprehensively address—not to mention resolve—the problem of “missing persons”. The recent emergence of the “politics of exhumations” in these two countries, which highlight issues related to truth recovery and collective memory, renders the attempt to …

Research In The Biotech Age: Can Informational Privacy Compete?, Wilhelm Peekhaus
Research In The Biotech Age: Can Informational Privacy Compete?, Wilhelm Peekhaus
Wilhelm Peekhaus
This paper examines the privacy of personal medical information in the health research context. Arguing that biomedical research in Canada has been caught up in the government’s broader neo-liberal policy agenda that has positioned biotechnology as a strategic driver of economic growth, the author discusses the tension between informational privacy and the need for medical information for research purposes. Consideration is given to the debate about whether privacy for medical information serves or hinders the ‘public good’ in respect of medical research, and to discussions of informed consent as an element of ‘fair information practices’ designed to safeguard the privacy …
Personal Health Information In Canada: A Comparison Of Citizen Expectations And Legislation, Wilhelm Peekhaus
Personal Health Information In Canada: A Comparison Of Citizen Expectations And Legislation, Wilhelm Peekhaus
Wilhelm Peekhaus
This paper explores whether the Canadian legislative protections in place to safeguard medical privacy meet the expectations of Canadians. An overview of current governance systems designed to protect the privacy of personal health information at both the federal and provincial levels is first presented. This is followed by an empirical analysis of the results of a public opinion survey conducted to determine Canadian attitudes about medical privacy, particularly genetic privacy. The analysis highlights areas where legislation and public opinion converge and diverge.
