Necropolítica en la Venezuela bolivariana
Se propone un análisis de la violencia institucional venezolana. Se plantea concebir el actual Estado venezolano como una máquina de guerra cuyo más evidente dispositivo necropolítico lo constituyen las Fuerzas de Acciones Especiales (FAES) de la Policía Nacional Bolivariana (PNB)3. Para tal fin, se recurre a instrumentos conceptuales provenientes de los estudios africanistas. En particular, las nociones de criminalidad de Estado (Bayart), necrop…
Socialist Biopolitics
Taking as a starting point the ontological differentiation between animal and human as a fundamental mechanism of biopolitical violence, I analyze the ambiguity of the imaginaries of flesh and animality in the contexts of revolutionary Cuba and Venezuela. I demonstrate how the dynamics of power marked by an ontological division between human and not human, often ascribed to neoliberalism, paradoxically operate in socialist regimes. I examine seve…
Venezolanos en Argentina, Estados Unidos y Portugal
En este artículo proponemos que la reciente migración venezolana es una diáspora en proceso de construcción. A partir de observación participante y entrevistas con informantes clave e inmigrantes venezolanos residentes en Argentina, Estados Unidos (Florida) y Portugal, sostenemos que tanto la experiencia común de la crisis humanitaria en el país de origen como la realidad transnacional compartida, contribuye a que los venezolanos en el exterior c…
Feasibility of Patient-Centric Remote Dried Blood Sampling
Blood-samples taken by patients at home using a microsampling device yielded higher quality samples than those taken in-clinic
Inside and Outside the Exhibition Space
This essay deals with issues of citizenship, artistic labor, and belonging in the context of the Dominican Republic. It examines the collaborative work of the Colectivo Quintapata to understand how artistic collaboration is used as a way for generating social transformation and reaching audiences beyond the artistic medium. Analyzing art installations, public interventions, and socially engaged art pieces produced by Quintapata between 2009 and 2…

José Antonio Ramos y las ambivalencias del discurso nacionalista de la primera generación republicana en Cuba
La existencia de un nacionalismo oficial identificado únicamente con el independentismo y el sentimiento antiestadounidense parece explicar la relativa escasez de estudios sobre la primera generación republicana en Cuba. Buscando disminuir este vacío crítico, este artículo estudia la obra de José Antonio Ramos para ahondar sobre una corriente de pensamiento nacionalista que intentó balancear arielismo y proamericanismo a principios de siglo XX. S…

Seroprevalencia de la enfermedad de Chagas en el cantón Aguarico, Amazonía ecuatoriana
The data obtained confirm the existence of an indigenous focus of Chagas disease in the Ecuadorian Amazon, with a percentage higher that the average for the Amazon region. No acute clinical cases or chronic pathologies were detected. Implementation of a culturally appropriate Chagas control program for the region is urgently needed
Access to Sterile Syringes by Injection Drug Users in Puerto Rico
A variety of studies have concluded that a primary reason injection drug users (IDUs), their sexual partners, and children continue to be infected with HIV is the lack of access to sterile syringes. The present study employed ethnographic interviews and observations to examine access to sterile syringes by IDUs in Puerto Rico between July 1995 and June 1997, a time characterized by the absence of legal restrictions on the sale and possession of s…
Frequencies of HLA-A and HLA-B alleles in a Mexico City mestizo sample
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the frequency of HLA-A and HLA-B antigens in a sample of the Mexico City Mestizo population. Previous similar studies were done by other authors in nonrelated individuals, while the present investigation was performed in families (parents and offspring), and therefore, a more accurate estimate of gene and haplotype frequencies was obtained. The predominant antigens in descending order are A2, A24, and …
