Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis article is based on the 2004 Von Hippel Award address by Nick Holonyak Jr. (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign). Holonyak received the award for “his many contributions to research and development in the field of semiconductors, not least for the first development of semiconductor lasers in the useful visible portion of the optical spectrum.” The talk was presented on Holonyak's behalf by Russell Dupuis on December 1, 2004, at the Materials Research Society Fall Meeting in Boston.With the discovery of the transistor by Bardeen and Brattain in 1947, and as a consequence of carrier injection and collection, the hole indeed became equal to the electron. The semiconductor took on new importance, as did the study of electron–hole recombination, first in the transistor materials Ge and Si, and then in III–V crystals (e.g., GaAs and GaP). Beyond Si and its indirect-gap and heterojunction limitations, the directgap III–V materials, particularly III–V alloys, made possible lasers and light-emitting diodes (LEDs)—and thus optoelectronics.The direct-gap III–V alloy LED after four decades of development exceeds in performance the incandescent lamp (as well as other forms of lamps) in much of the visible range. Beyond growing display applications, it has put conventional lighting under longrange threat with a semiconductor lamp—an “ultimate lamp” that promises unusual performance and energy savings. In principle, the LED or laser, basically a p–n junction, is an ultimate lamp that cannot be exceeded.

O artigo “Ética, estética e política na educação pela infância” tem o compromisso de levantar alguns pontos relevantes sobre uma educação pela infância. A ideia é iniciar com a reflexão do que entendemos por infâncias e os atravessamentos que permeiam a educação em seus aspectos éticos, estéticos e políticos. E nesse território quem é o professor que atua na educação pela infância? É um provocador de afetos? É um profissional que mobiliza a inserção das crianças em experiências sensíveis? Para que pudéssemos aprofundar tais questões, buscamos nos documentos oficiais – Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais para a Educação Infantil (2010) e Base Nacional Comum Curricular (2016), esse último ainda em trâmite – quais os principais pontos destacados no que se refere à educação pela infância e se nas suas orientações apontam para o encontro de uma educação pelo sensível. Também trouxemos para a discussão alguns autores que permeiam o olhar do professor e da criança, habitando ideias sobre ética, estética, política, experiência, sentidos, afeto e educação: Alves (2014), Cassirer (1997), Cabral e Nick (1999), Deleuze (2006), Deleuze e Guattari (2010), Duarte Jr. (2010; 2002), Estévez (2003), Hillal (1985), Kohan (2008), Larrosa (2013; 2004; 2002), Leontiev (2000), Masschelein e Simons (2015), Maldonato (2012), Meira e Pillotto (2010), Passos, Kastrup e Escóssia (2014), Rios (2010; 2011), Sawaia (1992), Skliar (2014; 2003), Ostrower (1986), Taille, Dantas e Oliveira (1992), Wallon (1989). Portanto, este artigo tem como desafio, para além da reflexão sobre a temática apresentada, mobilizar nossas práticas educativas para a infância, em um tempo/lugar de sensibilidades.

Full textAbstract:
In a letter to Vietnam War veteran Charles McDuff, Major General Franklin Davis, Jr. said, "The United States Army has never condoned wanton killing or disregard for human life." McDuff had written a letter to President Richard Nixon in January 1971, telling him that he had witnessed U.S. soldiers abusing and killing Vietnamese civilians and informing him that many My Lais had taken place during the war. He pleaded with Nixon to bring the killing to an end. The White House sent the letter to the general, and this was his reply.&hellp; McDuff's letter and Davis's response are quoted in Nick Turse's <em>Kill Anything That Moves: The Real American War in Vietnam</em>, the most recent book to demonstrate beyond doubt that the general's words were a lie.&hellp; In what follows, I use Turse's work, along with several other books, articles, and films, as scaffolds from which to construct an analysis of how the war was conducted, what its consequences have been for the Vietnamese, how the nature of the war generated ferocious opposition to it (not least by a brave core of U.S. soldiers), how the war's history has been whitewashed, and why it is important to both know what happened in Vietnam and why we should not forget it.<p class="mrlink"><p class="mrpurchaselink"><a href="http://monthlyreview.org/index/volume-67-number-1" title="Vol. 67, No. 1: May 2015" target="_self">Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the <em>Monthly Review</em> website.</a></p>

Full textAbstract:
This chapter argues that much programming for younger children on Nick Jr., Disney Jr., and PBS encourages them to manage their emotions and limit their affective, bodily responses through a focus on problem solving. These shows also advocate empathy and tolerance, teaching kids how to recognize and respond to others’ feelings. Many shows segue from emotional management to an appreciation of difference, thus contributing to the wider discourse of diversity management. In a stark shift from the years when television was seen as harming children’s development, many therapists now urge parents to use television to help their children learn prosocial behavior. However, television cannot be homogenized; a genre of “sideways growth” programming encourages kids to defy proper behavior, to revel in their bodies, and to occupy spaces of intensely affective pleasure. These shows interrupt the linear narratives that characterize problem-solving approaches and thus introduce the idea of alternative modes of communication.

Francesca Gatenby, Nick Jones, and Juliet Sheath for translating Urech 2009; and the many study authors who were very helpful in responding to queries and providing additional data. Depression is a major cause of disability for all ages and both sexes worldwide. Postpartum depression is often defined as depression occurring within the first year following childbirth. In most studies this includes those women for whom the depression may be a continuation of that experienced during pregnancy, as well as those for whom it is a new onset. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) does not recognize postpartum depression as diagnostically distinct from depression at other times, although does allow for the addition of a ‘postpartum-onset specifier’ in women with an onset within 4 weeks of birth. A recent systematic review of postpartum depression found the period prevalence of all depression to be 19.2% in the first 12 weeks postnatally, with a period prevalence for major depression of 7.1% (Gaynes et al. 2005). This review also identified depression to be common during pregnancy with a period prevalence of 18.4% across the 9 months of pregnancy, with 12.7% having an episode of major depression during this time. Not surprisingly, antenatal depression is a strong risk factor of postpartum depression. The cause of postpartum depression suggests a multifactorial aetiology (Beck 2001; O’Hara and Swain 1996). Despite considerable research, no single causative factor has been isolated. However, meta-analytic findings consistently highlight the importance of psychosocial variables such as stressful life events, marital conflict, and the lack of social support.
