El Manicomio Del Futbol Chileno, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
Chile acaba de elegir al nuevo presidente de la Asociación de fútbol (ANFP), luego de un tortuoso camino que muestra que este deporte es más que un simple juego o, en otras palabras, que se trata de un fenómeno social que traspasó las barreras de sus propias reglas. A la cabeza del organismo estuvo el Sr. Mayne-Nicholls cumpliendo una gestión reconocida unánimemente: nueva infraestructura deportiva, siembra de bases hacia el futuro, importantes resultados deportivos, cambios en la modalidad de los torneos, jerarquización internacional, exportación de futbolistas y construcción de un estilo de fútbol con identificación ciudadana. Para este proceso hubo …

Women Of African Descent: Persistence In Completing A Doctorate, Vannetta L. Bailey-Iddrisu
FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study examines the educational persistence of women of African descent (WOAD) in pursuit of a doctorate degree at universities in the southeastern United States. WOAD are women of African ancestry born outside the African continent. These women are heirs to an inner dogged determination and spirit to survive despite all odds (Pulliam, 2003, p. 337).This study used Ellis’s (1997) Three Stages for Graduate Student Development as the conceptual framework to examine the persistent strategies used by these women to persist to the completion of their studies.

En la actualidad, las ciudades no pueden entenderse exclusivamente desde las lógicas de la distribución espacial de las actividades urbanas. Tampoco a partir de las infraestructuras básicas del transporte o del agua potable, ni desde el valor del suelo o los ingresos del gobierno de la ciudad. Es imprescindible también tener en cuenta lo que piensan sus habitantes, los imaginarios que tienen, es decir, sus ópticas culturales. Los imaginarios no son sino la realidad que percibimos vivir, sentir y experimentar, lo que, a su vez, nos lleva a vivir según sus pautas. Esto significa que los imaginarios configuran la realidad …

Analysis Of Bus Collision Incidents Using Transit Its And Other Archived Operations Data, James G. Strathman, Paul Herman Wachana, Steve Callas
TREC Final Reports
This report analyzes factors contributing to bus operations safety incidents at TriMet, the transit provider for the Portland Oregon metropolitan region. The analysis focuses on 4,631 collision and non-collision incidents that occurred between 2006 and 2009. Empirical analysis of these incidents draws on a wide array of operator-level data recovered by transit ITS technologies in combination with information from TriMet’s human resources, scheduling, and customer relations databases. Incident frequencies are estimated in relation to operators’ demographic characteristics, employment status, assigned work characteristics, service delivery and performance indicators, temporal factors, and customer information. Apart from identifying factors that are empirically related …

Dennis P. Culhane
Objective: This study is the first to examine the distribution of service utilization and costs with a population-based sample that experienced chronic homelessness in sheltered and unsheltered locations in a large U.S. city. Methods: This study used shelter and street outreach records from a large U.S. city to identify 2,703 persons who met federal criteria for chronic homelessness during a three-year period. Identifiers for these persons were matched to administrative records for psychiatric care, substance abuse treatment, and incarceration. Results: Twenty percent of the persons who incurred the highest costs for services ccounted for 60% of the total service costs …

El Aucas de Quito ha caído en una pendiente que le ha llevado de la seria A a la B y ahora a la segunda categoría; tiene una deuda de 400 mil dólares. El Barcelona de Guayaquil lleva 13 años sin ganar un título y acumula una deuda de alrededor de 20 millones de dólares. Los dos equipos son ídolos en sus dos bastiones, tienen un sentimiento popular muy grande y son referentes de universos simbólicos importantes ¿Qué ha ocurrido con estos equipos y desde cuando se encuentran en esta situación? ¿Podrán remontar este momento?
En los dos equipos el …
La Ciudad Del Fútbol, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
La Ciudad Del Fútbol, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
El fútbol siguió un proceso civilizatorio a través de dos hechos históricos fundamentales: por un lado, cuando se aprueban las famosas 17 reglas, se impulsan los torneos oficiales y se consigue la institucionalidad del fútbol; y, por otro, cuando se reconocer que este proceso solo es posible de lograrse en la ciudad. Es decir, cuando el fútbol se urbaniza, en el contexto de la revolución industrial
De aquella época para acá se ha profundizado la relación del fútbol con la ciudad, tanto que se puede afirmar –sin temor a equivocación- que tienen una relación consustancial. Muchas ciudades se representan y …

Fernando Carrión Mena
Lo que vive la Policía Nacional en estos días es un problema de orden estructural que viene incubándose a lo largo de los años y que muestra que lo ocurrido el 30 septiembre no fue un hecho casual. La institución vive un proceso de segmentación, de fractura y de fisura institucional que se construye en estos últimos 30 años y que ahora ha hecho crisis. Lo primero: en el retorno al orden democrático en los años setenta el conjunto de las instituciones entraron en la transición a la democracia, sin la consideración de la Policía Nacional. Aquí quedaron por fuera, …

Derecho Y Fútbol, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
Según los entendidos no hay una sola actividad humana que no tenga relación directa o indirecta con el derecho. El caso del fútbol no es la excepción, más aún cuando en la actualidad se ha convertido en una actividad total, en la que están presentes las normas que rigen su propia actividad deportiva, pero también las vinculadas con las actividades articuladas a este deporte: la economía, la política y la cultura. En otras palabras, se trata de una actividad total que requiere de varias ramas del derecho para entender su funcionamiento; por ejemplo, hoy es imprescindible conocer el derecho mercantil, …

El día domingo 3 de octubre se llevaron a cabo dos procesos electorales importantes para América Latina. El primero en el Brasil para elegir Presidente de la República, autoridades de 26 Estados, 54 de los 81 miembros del Senado y 513 miembros de la Cámara de Diputados; y el segundo en Perú, para elegir autoridades en 25 regiones, 195 provincias y más de 1800 distritos. Como resultado general se puede decir que se observa un giro hacia la izquierda, lo cual marcará en la región.
En el Brasil, para suceder al Presidente Lula está muy bien posicionada la militante del …

La Internacionalización Del Fútbol, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
En el año 1948 se reunieron algunos miembros de los colegios londinenses en la Universidad de Cambridge para dar forma al Código Cambridge, que fue la base de las 17 reglas que norman hasta ahora esta práctica deportiva. Posteriormente en el año 1863 se las oficializó en el marco de la fundación de la Asociación de Fútbol, dando carta de nacimiento al fútbol moderno. Siete años después –el 5 de marzo de 1870- se produce el primer partido internacional, jugado entre Escocia e Inglaterra. En otras palabras, desde los inicios del fútbol moderno se produce su internacionalización, al extremo que …

The search strategy used in this profile was a simple one: all WOS articles from 2000 to 2010 whose title contained the keyword ‘graphene’ were downloaded and analyzed using VantagePoint textmining software. The search strategy used resulted in a total of 4,706 publications spanning 11 years, 313 journals, 78 countries, 1,433 institutional affiliations and 7,617 authors. After a brief presentation of global results, …
Las Lesiones En El Fútbol, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Las Lesiones En El Fútbol, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
Las lesiones en el fútbol son un asunto de la vida cotidiana de los jugadores, en tanto se originan, por un lado, en su propia naturaleza como un deporte de contacto y de exigente esfuerzo físico; y, por otro lado, en relación a las condiciones históricas en las cuales se encuentra inmerso, en términos de las demandas económicas, políticas y sociales. Históricamente las lesiones han cambiado significativamente. Así tenemos, por ejemplo, que antiguamente las más comunes eran, entre otras, la rotura de las canillas, la tibia y el peroné, debido a que todavía no se incorporaban los desarrollos tecnológicos de …

Poco a poco empieza a quedar en el pasado la rebelión llevada a cabo por la Policía Nacional, en principio producida por reclamos y demandas ante la aprobación de la Ley de Servicios Públicos por parte de la Asamblea Nacional. Ley con la que se reducen algunos bonos, premios y prebendas logradas por los efectivos policiales a lo largo de la historia. Fue una revuelta que se inició en Quito y de manera bastante focalizada, que poco a poco fue extendiéndose a otros repartos y subiendo de tono, principalmente por el inaudito hecho del secuestro del presidente de la república …

Local Y Global: Una Aproximación Desde El Sentido De Pertenencia, Fernando Carrión Mena Arq.
Fernando Carrión Mena
Uno de los grandes debates actuales en el ámbito mundial tiene por objeto el sentido de identidad que se desarrolla en la dinámica global/local, fenómeno que desde el segundo tercio del siglo pasado tiende a difundirse a la manera de un asunto de pertenencia generalizada.
Para comprender las identidades a partir de la relación global/local, es ne¬cesario tener en cuenta dos elementos constitutivos. Por un lado, y siguiendo a Giménez (1999), que las identidades provienen de una doble situación: primero, de la condición de pertenencia que expresa la adscripción al territorio, al género, a la clase, a la generación o …
Resilient Transportation Systems In A Post-Disaster Environment: A Case Study Of Opportunities Realized And Missed In The Greater New Orleans Region, 2010, James R. Amdal, Stanley L. Swigart
Resilient Transportation Systems In A Post-Disaster Environment: A Case Study Of Opportunities Realized And Missed In The Greater New Orleans Region, 2010, James R. Amdal, Stanley L. Swigart
UNOTI Publications
Based upon our research in Post-Katrina New Orleans, we define transportation resiliency as a system’s ability to function before, during and after major disruptions through reliance upon multiple mobility options. The importance of a resilient transportation system becomes more apparent during disasters where multiple options for mobility are necessary for both passenger and goods movement due to the potential loss of one or more modes.
Post-Katrina New Orleans offers a unique opportunity to investigate pre-disaster planning and post-disaster recovery activities in a major metropolitan city where all modes of transportation were either severely damaged or completely destroyed. In response to …

Macroeconomic Effects Of Over-Investment In Housing In An Aggregative Model Of Economic Activity, Hian Teck Hoon
Macroeconomic Effects Of Over-Investment In Housing In An Aggregative Model Of Economic Activity, Hian Teck Hoon
Research Collection School Of Economics
Is there a theoretical basis for the view that the end of a period of over-investment necessarily leads to a period of below-normal employment as the excess capital stock is run down? We study the repercussions of a false boom in housing driven by prior expectations of future housing prices not justified by fundamentals. When these expectations are corrected, the result is a precipitous drop in housing prices and, on that account alone, some drop in employment. There is also a bulge in the housing stock. In the case of a closed economy, the downward shift of the term structure …

This project will help demonstrate how sustainable ("green") streets contribute to the well-being of a community, including the physical and mental health of older and younger adults, along with the environment and economy. The project will collect data in Portland, OR neighborhoods to answer the following research questions: Are residents living near sustainable streets more physically active in their neighborhood? Do residents living near sustainable streets interact with neighbors more and demonstrate higher levels of neighborhood social capital? What are residents’ opinions of sustainable streets? Are there variations in responses to sustainable streets by age or other demographics? In particular, …
An Accident Waiting To Happen: A Study Of Taxi Driving Mentality In Yaoundé, Cameroon, Brittany Daniels
An Accident Waiting To Happen: A Study Of Taxi Driving Mentality In Yaoundé, Cameroon, Brittany Daniels
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
Taxis are the most common form of transportation found in Yaoundé, Cameroon. However, they are also a prime example of unsafe driving, causing a large number of minor accidents that often go unreported and uncorrected. Nevertheless, driving is a social responsibility, and smaller accidents have their own set of repercussions. Perhaps the strongest argument to understand and correct this problem is that it is preventing Cameroon’s capital city from becoming developed in the way of providing safe commercial transportation. In order to better understand this issue, it is necessary to deconstruct the mindsets of all involved. The focus of this …

Perceptions And Evaluation Of An Urban Environment For Pedestrian Friendliness: A Case Study, Elizabeth H. Lee
Master's Theses
Public health is an increasingly important issue addressed from both environmental and public health sectors for the future development of urban environments. From a planning perspective, one possible solution is to increase walkability throughout the cities. Many assessment methods are being developed and administered to evaluate the quality of existing urban environments to promote walkable cities/communities. The results from using these methods provide policymakers and stakeholders with valuable information regarding the existing physical conditions of the environment. Although several US cities started to develop and refocus plans toward pedestrian-oriented policies approaches, results from this particular study determined that the quality …
The State-In-Society Approach To Democratization With Examples From Japan, Mary Alice Haddad
The State-In-Society Approach To Democratization With Examples From Japan, Mary Alice Haddad
Mary Alice Haddad
How does an undemocratic country create democratic institutions and transform its polity in such a way that democratic values and practices become integral parts of its political culture? This article uses the case of Japan to advocate for a new theoretical approach to the study of democratization. In particular, it examines how theoretical models based on the European and North American experiences have difficulty explaining the process of democratization in Japan, and argues that a state-in-society approach is better suited to explaining the democratization process diverse cultural contexts. Taking a bottom-up view of recent developments in Japanese civil society through …
