The spatial control of migrants on the Chihuahua border

EDGAR ABEL CASTRO (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

This article tries to link the immigration policies of the United States and Mexico with the narrative developed by Michel Foucault. It shows how racism is the axis on which the State of biopower exercises its claims and its effects of power on bodies and on life. Thus, the current political rationality goes through the management of the living body of people, their health, and their spatiality. This principle extends to the homicidal function of the State. Two events that occurred on the Chihuahua border demonstrate this.

Influence of poverty concerns on demand for healthier processed foods: A field experiment in Mexico City

Marrit Van den Berg Jason Donovan (2023, [Artículo])

Living in poverty can present cognitive biases that exacerbate constraints to achieving healthier diets. Better diets could imply food choice upgrades within certain food categories, such as electing processed foods with an improved nutritional profile. This study evaluated the influence of monetary and health concerns on the willingness to pay (WTP) for healthier processed foods in a low-income section of Mexico City. We employed priming techniques from the scarcity literature, which are applied for the first time to healthier food purchasing behaviours in low-income settings. Our predictions are based on a dual system framework, with choices resulting from the interaction of deliberative and affective aspects. The WTP was elicited through a BDM mechanism with 423 participants. Results showed that induced poverty concerns reduced the valuations of one of the study's healthier food varieties by 0.17 standard deviations. The latter effect did not differ by income level. The WTP for a healthier bread product but one with relatively high sugar and fat content was reduced by induced poverty concerns only among certain consumers without bread purchasing restrictions (78% of the sample). Potential mechanisms were assessed through regression analysis and structural equation modelling. The relationship between poverty concerns and WTP was mediated by increased levels of stress. While we could not rule out impact on cognitive load, it was not deemed a mediator in this study. Our findings signal that improvements in economic and psychological well-being among low-income consumers may aid to increase their demand for healthier processed foods.

Modernidad, seguridad y corrupción : control de drogas en México durante la posguerra (1946-1949)

Andrea Olvera (2021, [Tesis de doctorado])

"Esta tesis analiza mediante diversas fuentes de archivo y hemerográficas cuáles fueron las transformaciones y permanencias que se dieron en el control de las drogas en México entre 1946 a 1948, que se caracterizó por su prohibición, criminalización y judicialización. Lo cual, estuvo enmarcado en el contexto de la posguerra y la consolidación de un régimen autoritario en el país".

Physiological ecology of Mexican CAM plants: history, progress, and opportunities

Joel David Flores Rivas Oscar Briones Villareal JOSE LUIS ANDRADE (2022, [Artículo])

"In Mexico, plants with crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) are part of the Mexican culture, have different uses and are even emblematic. Unfortunately, only a small fraction of the Mexican CAM plants has been studied physiologically. For this review, the following questions were considered: What ecophysiological studies have been conducted with CAM species native to Mexico? What ecophysiological processes in Mexican CAM plants are the most studied? What type of ecophysiological studies with CAM plants are still needed? A database of scientific studies on CAM plant species from Mexico was documented, including field and laboratory works for species widely distributed, and those studies made outside Mexico with Mexican species. Physiological processes were grouped as germination, photosynthesis, and water relations. Most studies were done for CAM species of Cactaceae, Bromeliaceae, Asparagaceae and Orchidaceae, andmost ecophysiological studies have been done on germination of cacti. Field and laboratory studies on photosynthesis and water relations were mostly for terrestrial cacti and epiphytic bromeliads. There were few physiological studies with CAM seedlings in Mexico and few studies using stable isotopes of water and carbon of CAM plants in the field. More field and laboratory studies of physiological responses and plasticity of CAM plants to multiple stress factors are required to model plant responses to global climate change. In general, more physiological studies are essential for all CAM species and for species of the genus Clusia, with C3-CAM and CAM members, which can become ecologically important under some climate change scenarios."

La pobreza femenina en la ciudad de Morelia 1917-1943. Asistencia social y los modos de subsistencia

During the first decades of the twentieth century in Morelia, low income women were exposed to different situations to move forward and survive due the lack of economic resources that didn´t allow them to have a decent living condition. For this reason, through means such as work, crime and government aid tried to get out of this condition. At the same time, the State was interested in creating institutions and laws that would help them to have an education, health and economic resources. The present project will focus on analyzing poor woman subsistence ways and the government aid labor from 1917 to 1943.

Durante las primeras décadas del siglo XX en Morelia, las mujeres pobres estuvieron expuestas a diferentes situaciones para salir adelante y sobrevivir pues la falta de recursos económicos no permitía que tuvieran una buena condición de vida. Por esta razón, a través de medios como el trabajo, la criminalidad y la asistencia trataron de salir de su condición. De igual forma, el Estado tuvo interés por crear instituciones y legislaciones que las ayudaran a tener educación, salud y recursos económicos. El presente trabajo se enfocará en analizar las formas de subsistencia de la mujer pobre y la labor de la asistencia social de 1917 a 1943.

La historia detrás de Gonolobus caamali (Apocynaceae), endémica de la península de Yucatán

Publicar una especie nueva para la ciencia es siempre una tarea interesante y retadora, sobre todo en los tiempos modernos, donde la comunidad de sistemáticos de plantas y las revistas científicas exigen investigaciones de biología comparada más completas, integrando diferentes fuentes de evidencia (morfológica y molecular), más allá de una simple descripción morfológica. Esta historia comenzó hace más de 15 años y terminó este año, cuando Gonolobus caamali Carnevali & R. Duno (Apocynaceae), fue descrita como una nueva especie para la ciencia. Presentamos aquí algunos detalles de esta especie.

Análisis de un Espejo Deformable Utilizando Algoritmos Genéticos

ROSARIO GUADALUPE PORRAS AGUILAR (2003, [Tesis de maestría])

En el campo de la astronomía observacional se necesitan técnicas avanzadas que permitan la eliminación de los efectos de la turbulencia atmosférica, que e son observados en la imagen final obtenida por el detector. La principal contribución de aberraciones son las producidas por los cambios aleatorios de la temperatura, en las diferentes capas de la atmósfera. La óptica adaptiva resuelve este problema utilizando espejos deformables. El procedimiento consiste en sensar el frente de onda, y posteriormente deformar la superficie del espejo utilizando actuadores, de manera tal que se compensen las deformaciones y el detector reciba un frente de onda corregido. En este trabajo, se propone el uso de algoritmos genéticos, para encontrar la combinación de actuadores que se deben usar en la parte posterior del espejo, y la fuerza que cada uno deberá ejercer para obtener la superficie previamente determinada. Las ventajas de utilizar estos algoritmos, es que además de no necesitar un punto de partida, encuentran la solución óptima.
