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

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.

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.

Full textAbstract:
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.

The present work aims at presenting the most important texts documenting the activity of schools in the St. Dominic Monastery in Poznań in modern times. Following a query carried out in archives, the author made a juxtaposition of relevant texts. It appears that that the most precious monuments shedding light on the Dominican educational system are to be found in Poznań-based archives and registry offices, and in the Archives of the Polish Province of Dominicans in Cracow. The archival material includes documents written by Dominicans, as well as numerous records and documents that provide detailed information on schools operating within the order and on their lecturers and disciples.

Full textAbstract:
Friar Dominic, the title character of The Spanish Fryar (1681), is usually regarded as a ‘crude caricature of Catholicism,’ an advertisement for Dryden's Protestantism during the Popish Plot crisis of 1680. But there is another way of looking at him. One may ask, why does Dryden make this wicked priest a Dominican at a time when Jesuits are being singled out for vituperation? Why does he call him Friar Dominic, have him refer to Saint Dominic as a ‘sure Card’ who never fails ‘his Votaries,’ and plainly term him ‘this Jacobin’ (II.iii.2), another name for a Dominican? Evidently, he wants the reader to notice that his satire is aimed at one particular Order, not all Catholic Orders. As William Prynne noted long before, ‘no Protestants’ ever wrote ‘so bitterly against these Popish orders as themselves do one against the other.’ Dryden's choice seems odd, since Dominicans were a handful compared to the 120 Jesuits, 80 Benedictines and 55 Franciscans in the English mission. They were not even worth the historian's numbering. Besides this, Cardinal Philip Howard, Dryden's uncle by marriage, was an eminent Dominican under whose aegis Dryden would place two of his sons after the 1688 Revolution, when they went to Rome to serve the Pope.

Full textAbstract:
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.

En el presente trabajo se pretende entender cómo ciertas instituciones del Estado dominicano atentan contra la autonomía sexual de la adolescente dominicana, damnificando, así, la correcta asunción y ejercicio de los Derechos Sexuales y Reproductivos de la ciudadanía. Inicialmente, y desde un plano cuantitativo, se documentará la situación jurídica de la República Dominicana en materia de sexualidad y reproducción desde la esfera de la educación y la sanidad pública. Seguidamente, y con un talante cualitativo, se pretende conocer el papel de los medios de comunicación para aplicar la óptica de Michel Foucault a la problemática planteada, por lo que se considerarán la conceptualización del poder, las tecnologías que de él emanan y la vulneración de la autonomía sexual de las adolescentes dominicanas para correlacionar la realidad descubierta con la teoría foucaultiana. Ello permitirá divisar otra perspectiva de la realidad y se plantearán varios estándares que erijan un Derecho Democrático de la Sexualidad que, en un contexto tan particular como el dominicano, sea mínimamente sólido al respecto de los Derechos Humanos.

Full textAbstract:
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.

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.

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.

Francisco Moscoso Puello es un médico dominicano que desarrolló su vida intelectual en la primera mitad del siglo XX. Imbuido de un espíritu crítico se sitúa al margen de la élite ligada al poder durante la tiranía trujillista. Atravesado por la experiencia personal de ser mulato, reflexionó en su obra literaria sobre la cuestión racial en República Dominicana, influenciado por las ideas claves del determinismo geográfico y el racismo biologicista que predominaron en las ciencias sociales decimonónicas. Es considerado un digno exponente de lo que se ha llamado el pesimismo dominicano en continuidad con los pensadores sociales dominicanos de finales del XIX e inicios del XX. En el siguiente trabajo, se analizan cuatro de sus obras literarias desde el punto de vista de la identidad, tanto personal como colectiva, y la alteridad, tomando como guía el concepto de identidad narrativa de Paul Ricoeur. A partir del método hermenéutico, propuesto por Stephen M. North (1986) y aplicado por Sánchez Escobar (2001) en la investigación cualitativa de producciones escritas, se analizan e interpretan los patrones recurrentes en torno a sus ideas raciales y su percepción de lo que en su momento se llamó el alma dominicana.

Full textAbstract:
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.

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.

Abstract: Measurement of depressive comorbidity in drug dependents: Validity and diagnostic efficiency of Beck's Depression Inventory (BDI-II) in Dominicans with multiple substance consumption. The present study proposed two main objectives, a) evaluate the validity of BDI-II for the identification of comorbid depressive symptoms in people with multiple substance abuse (i.e. Known-Groups Validity); and b) verify the diagnostic efficacy of the inventory for the distinction between general population and clinical drug dependents. From a two-stage sampling, a total of 116 Dominicans was selected, of whom 50% were drug-dependent. Analysis of differences between groups and analysis of COR curves were applied. The results show statistically significant and large effect size differences in depression levels in favor of the substance abuse group. In addition, COR curve analyses indicate that depression scores derived from BDI-II have adequate diagnostic performance indices. In short, evidence is provided in favor of the appropriateness and validity of the BDI-II to be applied in a population of drug dependents. Keywords: Drug dependents; depression; BDI-II; comorbidity; known-groups validity; COR curves; Dominican Republic. Resumen: El presente estudio se propuso como objetivos, a) evaluar la validez del BDI-II para la identificación de sintomatología depresiva comórbida en personas con múltiple abuso de sustancias (i.e. Known-Groups Validity); y b) verificar la eficacia diagnóstica del inventario para la distinción entre población general y drogodependientes clínicos. A partir de un muestreo bietapico, se seleccionó un total de 116 dominicanos de los cuales el 50% era drogodependiente. Se aplicaron análisis de diferencias entre grupos y análisis de curvas COR. Los resultados muestran diferencias estadísticamente significativas, y de tamaño del efecto grande, en los niveles de depresión en favor del grupo de personas con problemática de abuso de sustancias. Además, los análisis de curvas COR indican que los puntajes de depresión derivados del BDI-II presentan índices de rendimiento diagnóstico adecuados. En suma, se aporta evidencia a favor de la adecuación y validez del BDI-II para ser aplicado en población de drogodependientes. Palabras clave: Drogodependencia; depresión; BDI-II; comorbilidad; known-groups validity; curvas COR; República Dominicana.

Full textAbstract:
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.

La constante politización (y polarización) de ciertos problemas entre la República Dominicana y Haití, ha convertido algunas diferencias en contiendas irreconciliables en ambos lados de la isla. En el lado dominicano, las confrontaciones han alcanzado proporciones repudiables al menos dos veces, específicamente durante la Masacre de 1937 y la Sentencia 168/13 del Tribunal Constitucional. La primera supuso la exterminación de al menos 20,000 personas haitianas o de ascendencia haitiana en comunidades fronterizas en la República Dominicana, y la última se tradujo en la privación de nacionalidad a cientos de miles de individuos de ascendencia haitiana nacidos en la República Dominicana. La desnacionalización de las personas de ascendencia haitiana fue mitigada por el hecho de que el presidente dominicano Danilo Medina aprobó una Ley de Naturalización e inició un Plan Nacional de Regularización. Tomando la República Dominicana como un caso de estudio para explorar la relación entre desnacionalización y apatridia con la condición de refugio, llegamos a la conclusión de que la privación de nacionalidad y la desnacionalización, no siempre equivalen a la persecución estatal, excepto en los casos que resultaron en expulsiones del país de anterior residencia habitual”. Dos puntos específicos dieron forma a esta conclusión: primero, el acto de desnacionalización y expulsión parece haberse sustentado en razones de raza y origen nacional (anterior); y el hecho de que las personas removidas de la República Dominicana por la fuerza, no estarán en capacidad de regresar legalmente a su país de nacimiento sin enfrentar la persecución estatal, ya que el Gobierno dominicano no reconoce a estas personas como nacionales. Esperamos que estos hallazgos beneficien a (ciertos) solicitantes de asilo para defender su derecho a refugio en distintos países de primera entrada donde aún hay casos pendientes.

Full textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
Objective. To assess coverage and inequalities in maternal and child health interventions among Haitians, Haitian migrants in the Dominican Republic and Dominicans. Methods. Cross-sectional study using data from nationally representative surveys carried out in Haiti in 2012 and in the Dominican Republic in 2014. Nine indicators were compared: demand for family planning satisfied with modern methods, antenatal care, delivery care (skilled birth attendance), child vaccination (BCG, measles and DPT3), child case management (oral rehydration salts for diarrhea and careseeking for suspected pneumonia), and the composite coverage index. Wealth was measured through an asset-based index, divided into tertiles, and place of residence (urban or rural) was established according to the country definition. Results. Haitians showed the lowest coverage for demand for family planning satisfied with modern methods (44.2%), antenatal care (65.3%), skilled birth attendance (39.5%) and careseeking for suspected pneumonia (37.9%), and the highest for oral rehydration salts for diarrhea (52.9%), whereas Haitian migrants had the lowest coverage in DPT3 (44.1%) and oral rehydration salts for diarrhea (38%) and the highest in careseeking for suspected pneumonia (80.7%). Dominicans presented the highest coverage for most indicators, except oral rehydration salts for diarrhea and careseeking for suspected pneumonia. The composite coverage index was 79.2% for Dominicans, 69.0% for Haitian migrants, and 52.6% for Haitians. Socioeconomic inequalities generally had pro-rich and pro-urban pattern in all analyzed groups. Conclusion. Haitian migrants presented higher coverage than Haitians, but lower than Dominicans. Both countries should plan actions and policies to increase coverage and address inequalities of maternal health interventions.

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.

Resumo Neste artigo abordo duas dimensões da nova situação de deportabilidade que haitianos e dominicanos enfrentaram, na República Dominicana, a partir de 2015. Primeiro, analiso a experiência desses atores e como eles conceberam essa nova situação juntamente com o vocabulário político que mobilizaram. Em seguida, rastreio como o Estado dominicano e suas técnicas e tecnologias de contagem e controle, sobretudo a partir do censo nacional, em 2010, operaram uma espécie de política dúbia, ao não serem claros sobre o que estava sendo concebido e planejado em relação a um grupo específico considerado como “pessoas em trânsito”. Após a decisão 168-13 da Corte Constitucional, conhecida comola sentencia,o governo dominicano aproveitou o momento para encenar um espetáculo ambíguo de exclusão que produziu seletivamente a ilegalidade de pessoas e, ao mesmo tempo, promoveu sua própria imagem, nacional e internacionalmente, como uma das nações mais modernas do Caribe, produzindo não só a cidadania, mas a vida em si. A maneira como pessoas comuns enfrentaram essa nova situação a partir de uma epistemologia política fundada em lutas históricas é o tema principal deste artigo.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Qualitative approaches help explore poorly understood phenomenon, and are highly engaging, enabling both sides of an encounter greater connection. Historically, Deaf communities have been marginalized and oppressed, with their linguistic needs unrecognized and ignored. As a result, Deaf participants are rarely involved in clinical research. Like other marginalized communities, the Deaf community experiences health disparity compared with others, especially in low- and middle-income settings. The purpose of this project was to assess the feasibility of conducting qualitative research with Deaf Dominicans. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We implemented a partnered research process with 59 Deaf community members in the Dominican Republic, conducting preliminary thematic analysis through reviews of interviews and on-site debriefings. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Participants were highly engaged with the Deaf-Deaf research encounters, indicating satisfaction with both the process and with the opportunity to communicate their needs and interests. Preliminary findings indicated Deaf Dominicans were highly engaged, confirming their interest, and often stated that they felt they were being listened for the first time. Indeed, some participants claimed that this was the first time they communicated their experiences as Deaf Dominicans and appreciated the opportunity to relate this experience to Deaf interviewers. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This experience confirms that the Deaf Dominican community can be mobilized and will participate in Deaf-Deaf research.

The problem regarding migrants has occurred a long time ago in the Dominican Republic where Haitian migrants entered as slaves to the sugar industry in 1990 without certain conditions. The problem is further complicated when the flow of migration from Haiti to Dominica issues a policy to tackle the migration problem with the aim of reducing the high flow of migrants from Haiti. This paper examines the push and pulling factors of the Haitian population to migrate to the Republic of Dominica through the concept of the International Migration and Pulling Factors. Through the National Regularization Plan policy of the government of the Republic of Dominica seeks to reduce the flow of migration from Haiti, however this policy has been less effective since it was implemented in 2015.

El general Pedro Santana, cuyos restos reposan en el salón de los patriotas inmortales —conocido por todos como el Panteón Nacional o Panteón de la Patria—, fueron llevados allí por el antipatriota, represivo y enemigo del pueblo dominicano, Dr. Joaquín Balaguer, el 23 de julio de 1978 —23 días antes del traspaso de mando al gobierno de Antonio Guzmán Fernández, del Partido Revolucionario Dominicano—. Sin embargo, no deben permanecer ni un minuto más en ese lugar sagrado. El general Santana anexó la República Dominicana a España el 18 de marzo de 1861, murió habiendo hecho juramento bajo la bandera española y cometió innumerables crímenes contra los fieles seguidores del ideal trinitario de una República Dominicana totalmente libre e independiente de toda dominación extranjera. Esas son las razones centrales por las cuales Santana no debe ocupar ningún espacio en ese lugar sagrado.

Full textAbstract:
Between 1307 and ca. 1331, the Friars Preachers of Strasbourg undertook a building expansion to make their church the largest in the city after the cathedral. The rebuilding program followed a clash of authority between the Dominicans and the regular clergy and city council of Strasbourg, during which the order was driven from the city from 1287 to 1290. The Dominicans' fourteenth-century building campaign reaffirmed the order's popularity with the faithful and its need for a large double nave in which to preach. Moreover, the new choir was a specific challenge to the clergy and citizens whose interest was invested in the local cathedral; the Dominican church was one of the few city structures to attempt to compete visually with the cathedral. This effort, coupled with the difficulties engendered by the Dominicans' financial success, provides an instructive example of medieval architectural exchange.

Full textAbstract:
Francisco Moscoso Puello (1885-1959) es un notable médico dominicano de la primera mitad del siglo xx. Hijo de migrante español y negra dominicana, escribió una serie de obras que influyeron en su momento a la sociedad letrada de Santo Domingo. Cultivador de diversos géneros, su práctica de escritura estuvo permeada por la búsqueda incesante de lo que llamó el alma o el carácter nacional del pueblo dominicano. Regularmente se le coloca dentro del pesimismo dominicano, corriente de pensamiento decimonónica que miró con desdén nuestra composición social y/o racial. En este caso, quien escribe es un mulato que reconoce la composición demográfica de este mestizaje entre blanco español y negra africana; pero su ideal de civilización es la blanquitud europea como la entiende Bolívar Echeverría. A partir del método hermenéutico ideado por Stephen M. North y aplicado a un corpus literario importante, se resume en este trabajo lo que hemos llamado la conciencia escindida o la angustia del mulato. Encontramos que, influenciado por el determinismo geográfico y racial propio a las ciencias sociales del siglo xix, Moscoso Puello realizó una práctica escrituraria con la intención de sobrellevar la angustia existencial de ser un mulato en un país mulato; aunque no como todos los mulatos dominicanos dado su acercamiento privilegiado con el mundo europeo a través de su formación académica.

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. Para ello, participaron 564 docentes de educación infantil y primaria de República Dominicana, 29.6% hombres y 70.4% mujeres, con una edad media de 39.72 años (DT = 8.09) y una media de experiencia profesional de 15.67 años (DT = 3.83). Los docentes desarrollaban su actividad profesional en 18 provincias de las 32 que componen República Dominicana. Se emplearon tres instrumentos de evaluación: la Escala de Eficacia Docente (Teacher Efficacy Scale, Short Form), la Escala de Autoeficacia Docente (Teacher’s Sense of Efficacy Scale-Short Form) y el Cuestionario VIA de Fortalezas Personales (Values in Action Inventory of Strengths: VIA-IS). Se evaluaron las características psicométricas de los instrumentos (fiabilidad y validez). Los resultados obtenidos a través del análisis de correlación pusieron de manifiesto una relación positiva entre las distintas subescalas de las dos pruebas empleadas para evaluar la autoeficacia docente así como entre la autoeficacia docente y las fortalezas y virtudes personales del profesorado. Las correlaciones más altas se encontraron con las fortalezas personales de Sabiduría y conocimiento, por una parte, y Humanidad, por otra. Se discute la necesidad de incorporar en la formación, tanto inicial como permanente, el trabajo de las fortalezas y virtudes personales como base del desarrollo y efectividad personal y profesional.Palabras clave: eficacia docente, autoeficacia docente, fortalezas y virtudes personales, República Dominicana

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.

Full textAbstract:
The Dominican friar Giovanni Dominici (1356-1419) was an influential, charismatic, and popular preacher, and an important figure in the political world of Renaissance Florence, but neglected in modern scholarship. This study offers a thorough summary of Dominici's political views as well as a biographical portrait, a bibliographical survey, and a discussion of Dominici's preaching style. The article draws on a large, unpublished collection of Dominici's sermons from the Biblioteca Riccardiana, dating from 1400 to 1406. Dominici emerges as an ambivalent participant in Florentine politics, advocating some of its civic values such as the active life and patriotism, while fiercely criticizing humanist ideals such as the use of rhetoric in politics and the rise of the professional politician

Full textAbstract:
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.
