Abstract This article deals with the repercussions and meanings of denialism and political irresponsibility in the relationship between risks of death and protection of the population during Covid-19 between 2019 and 2022. Vaccines, masks and isolation were denied. It aims to understand and deepen the relationship between lack of protection, misinformation, fake news and mental health. The official discourse was analyzed as a case study of bionecropolitics with repercussions on the population's health. The result shows that both physical and mental health are affected by denialism, misinformation, bad information and a lack of ethics and responsibility, with repercussions on representations of reliability, sociability and the incidence of anxiety, stress and depression. Meanings of life and death are paradoxically attributed to Covid-19 and established politics. The repercussions of diseases are more evident in the poorest and most peripheral layers in a society structured by economic, racial and gender inequality with the intersectionality of these dimensions.

Resumo Este artigo trata das repercussões e dos sentidos do negacionismo e da irresponsabilidade política na relação entre riscos de morte e proteção da população durante a covid-19 entre 2019 e 2022. Negaram-se vacinas, máscaras e isolamento. Tem como objetivo compreender e aprofundar a relação entre a desproteção, a desinformação, as fakes news e a saúde mental. Analisou-se o discurso oficial como um estudo de caso de bionecropolítica com repercussões na saúde da população. O resultado mostra que tanto a saúde física como a mental são afetadas pelo negacionismo, pela desinformação, pela má informação e pela falta de ética e de responsabilidade com repercussões nas representações de confiabilidade, na sociabilidade e na incidência de ansiedade, estresse e depressão. Sentidos de vida e morte são paradoxalmente atribuídos à covid-19 e à política estabelecida. As repercussões de doenças estão mais evidenciadas nas camadas mais pobres e periféricas em uma sociedade estruturada pela desigualdade econômica, de raça e de gênero com interseccionalidade dessas dimensões. covid19 covid 19 covid-1 201 2022 Negaramse Negaram se vacinas isolamento desproteção desinformação Analisouse Analisou confiabilidade ansiedade depressão estabelecida econômica dimensões covid1 1 covid- 20 202 2

Resumen: A partir del concepto de legitimidad, en este texto se examinan los móviles que subyacían en la violencia generalizada entre policías y habitantes de la ciudad de México durante el transcurso de la década de 1920. Con base en documentos judiciales y en notas periodísticas, en él se llega a la conclusión de que las demostraciones bidireccionales de fuerza entre gendarmes y ciudadanos descansaban en la conjunción de seis fenómenos: 1) la complicidad entre policías y criminales, 2) el monitoreo clasista de las clases populares, 3) la labor represiva del Estado sobre manifestaciones que buscaban reivindicaciones sociales, 4) los abusos de autoridad y las imprudencias que los gendarmes cometían cotidianamente en su labor, 5) el hartazgo que la sociedad manifestó alrededor de los cuatro elementos anteriores, y 6) las demostraciones de prepotencia de la élite política frente a los uniformados.

Abstract: Through the concept of legitimacy, this article examines the underlying motives behind the generalized violence between the police and Mexico City residents during the 1920s. Based on judicial documents and newspaper articles, it concludes that these shows of force between gendarmes and citizens, which went both ways, were due to a set of six phenomena: 1) complicity between the police and criminals, 2) the discriminatory surveillance of the working class, 3) the repressive attitude of the state toward social protest, 4) abuses of authority and the everyday irresponsibility of the gendarmes, 5) the exhaustion of society with all this, and 6) the arrogance of the political elites regarding the police.

BACKGROUND: Children roaming the streets estimated at 1 in 10 by a 2021 United Nation Children's Funds (UNICEF) report is a growing problem, in cities of lower- and middle-income African countries. Studies of street children with no family ties abound, but there is a paucity of studies on children on the street who exist within families and return home daily. We explored the family dynamics of children on the streets of Ibadan, emphasising family structure, resources and relationships METHODS: Using an exploratory design based on a qualitative approach 53 participants were interviewed, including children on the streets, parental figures, child-welfare officers and street shop owners. Participants were selected from streets in the five urban local government areas of Ibadan, Nigeria. Recorded data were transcribed, and framework analysis was performed RESULTS: The family dynamics included family structural problems, poor family resources and poor parent-child relationships. The family structural problems included: broken homes, large families and ambivalence around polygamy as subthemes. Family resources comprised: poor economic resources, poor social resources, educational challenges, cultural ambivalence and spiritual backdrops. The family relationships patterns included: poor adaptability, economic-oriented partnership, poor growth support, poor emotional connection and poor family bonding CONCLUSION: The dynamics driving a family's choice for child streetism in Ibadan, mostly to hawk, are devaluation of family life, parenting irresponsibility, and poor filial relationship, underscored by economic constraints and socio-cultural decadence. The results of this research buttress the need for family-level interventions to forestall the escalating phenomenon of child streetism in Ibadan, Nigeria CONTRIBUTION: This research highlights the family dynamics of children on the streets, and buttresses family-level interventions are necessary to forestall escalating child-streetism in Ibadan, Nigeria

ABSTRACT This article seeks to establish that the so-called Social Parasitism corresponds to a dissocial behavior, which is the result of temperamental phenomena with biopsychosocial implications and refers to patients who present a passive, exploitative, and chronic way of life at the expense of others. Based on the Transferred Focused Psychotherapy Model (TFP), we will analyze how this clinical manifestation reflects a severe pathology of the superego and corresponds to behaviors of the dissocial spectrum since it implies a form of chronic behavior of exploitation and significant irresponsibility in interpersonal relationships, characterized by the Poorness of the Objectal Investment. We propose to encourage the search and directed evaluation of the whole dissocial spectrum in a way to promote its evaluation, diagnostic, registration, consider its prognosis and establish short- and long-term objectives when possible. This could prevent, decrease, or at least warn about the eventual damages, not only to the patients but to their families and the people or institutions involved.

RESUMEN: El presente artículo procura establecer que el denominado Parasitismo Social corresponde a una conducta disocial, lo cual es el resultado de fenómenos temperamentales con implicancias biopsicosociales, y hace referencia a pacientes que presentan una forma de vida pasiva, explotadora y crónica a expensas de otros. Basados en el Modelo de la Psicoterapia Focalizada en la Transferencia (TFP), analizaremos cómo esta manifestación clínica refleja una patología grave del superyó y corresponde a conductas del espectro disocial, pues implica una forma de conducta crónica de explotación e irresponsabilidad significativa en relaciones interpersonales, caracterizado por una Pobreza del Investimento Objetal. Nos proponemos propiciar la búsqueda y evaluación dirigida de todo el espectro disocial de manera de promover su evaluación, diagnóstico, registro, considerar su pronóstico y plantear objetivos a corto y largo plazo cuando sean posibles. Esto podría impedir, disminuir o por lo menos advertir sobre los eventuales daños, no solo a los pacientes sino a sus familiares y personas o instituciones implicadas.

Abstract I argue that one form of deism, what I shall call ‘moderate non-teleological deism’, seems prima facie incoherent (at least on the assumption of the intuitive Anselmian conception of God). I offer two arguments in support of the prima facie incoherence view: the moral irresponsibility argument and the practical irrationality argument. On the one hand, the moral responsibility argument suggests that three of the essential attributes of such a deistic God are inconsistent: omniscience, omnipotence and moral perfection. This is, of course, a variation of the well-known argument from evil. On the other hand, the practical rationality argument suggests that were such a deistic God to create the universe but have no further interest, plan or goal for the universe, the very act would have committed a deistic God to practical irrationality. I argue that this result follows from a widely accepted understanding of the nature of practical rationality and agency. I briefly examine some objections to the two arguments and conclude that moderate non-teleological deism seems prima facie incoherent.

Resumen El objetivo de este estudio es determinar si existen diferencias en características psicopáticas según complejidades delictivas en adolescentes. Se utiliza un diseño de encuesta transversal correlacional y un muestro intencional. La muestra está constituida por 49 adolescentes de entre 14 y 18 años (M = 16,08, DE = 1,06) caracterizados por complejidades delictuales por criterios de experto, utilizando los lineamientos MMIDA (Perez-Luco et al., 2014). Una vez caracterizados son evaluados a través del Youth Psychopathic Traits Inventory (YPI, Andershed et al., 2002). Los resultados arrojan diferencias estadísticamente significativas en características psicopáticas entre los grupos persistentes y control (F (2, 40) = 3,45, p = ,04). Específicamente, en el Factor 2 Dureza/Insensibilidad (F (2, 41) = 4,41, p = ,02) en la sub escala Falta de Remordimiento (F (2, 41) = 8,17, p = ,001) y en Irresponsabilidad (F (2, 44) = 5,69, p = ,01). Se concluye que los adolescentes vinculados a una delincuencia persistente pertenecen a una población distintiva en su afectividad, en contraste con adolescentes que no reportan delitos; se discuten sus posibles implicancias.

Abstract The objective of this study is to determine whether there are differences in psychopathic characteristics according to criminal complexities in adolescents. A correlational cross-sectional survey design and intentional sampling are used. The sample is made up of 49 adolescents between 14 and 18 years of age (M = 16.08, SD = 1.06) characterized according to criminal complexities by expert criteria using the MMIDA guidelines (Perez-Luco et al., 2014). Once characterised, they are evaluated by means of the Youth Psychopathic Traits Inventory (YPI, Andershed et al., 2002). The results show statistically significant differences in psychopathic characteristics between the persistent and control groups (F (2, 40) = 3,45, p = ,04). Specifically, in Factor 2 Hardness/Insensitivity (F (2, 41) = 4,41, p = ,02) in Remorselessness sub scale (F (2, 41) = 8,17, p = ,001) and in Irresponsibility (F (2, 44) = 5.69, p = .01). It is conjectured that adolescents linked to a persistent crime belong to a distinctive population in their affectivity and irresponsible conduct in contrast to adolescents who do not commit crime; its possible implications are discussed.

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo é determinar se existem diferenças nas características psicopáticas de acordo com as complexidades ofensivas nos adolescentes. Foi utilizado um desenho de inquérito transversal correlacional e uma amostra propositada. A amostra é constituída por 49 adolescentes com idades compreendidas entre os 14-18 anos (M = 16,08, SD = 1,06) caracterizados por complexidades delinquentes por critérios de peritos, utilizando as diretrizes da MMIDA (Perez-Luco et al., 2014). Uma vez caracterizados, são avaliados através do Youth Psychopathic Traits Inventory (YPI, Andershed et al., 2002). Os resultados mostram diferenças estatisticamente significativas nos traços psicopáticos entre os grupos persistentes e de controlo (F (2, 40) = 3,45, p = .04). Especificamente, no Factor 2 Dureza/ Insensibilidade (F (2, 41) = 4,41, p = .02) na sub-escala Falta de Remorso (F (2, 41) = 8,17, p = .001) e na Irresponibilidade (F (2, 44) = 5,69, p = .01). Conclui-se que os adolescentes ligados à delinquência persistente pertencem a uma população distinta na sua afetividade, em contraste com os adolescentes que não denunciam a delinquência, e discutem-se as possíveis implicações.

The report of the Ministerial Committee on Transformation and Social Cohesion revealed that exclusionary practices are commonplace in South African universities. They remain a compelling factor that contributes to student attrition in Master's and doctoral programmes, and they were a trigger to the #RhodesMustFall movement. Universities, oblivious to their doublespeak, have institutionalised curriculum decolonisation and delivery, yet simultaneously enforce neoliberal performative principles (fast-tracking increased numbers despite different levels of student readiness). The extent to which traditional, hierarchical research supervision models (with their genesis in an asymmetrical master-apprentice power dynamic) have responded to the needs of the euphemistically coined "non-traditional" student is moot. In a context of unprecedented increase in research supervision workloads and pressure to decolonise, there is limited research-informed knowledge as to how research supervisors navigate these contradictory conditions. This article reports on a study informed by a Freirean "pedagogy of care" as it attempts to address this lacuna by exploring the research supervision experiences and practice of a sample of 18 research-active professors in a College of Humanities at a research-led university in South Africa. Data was generated through in-depth interviews and subjected to reflexive thematic analysis. The findings indicate that a deep sense of care exists among the sampled supervisors and it manifests in various ways as supervisors actively work with and through neoliberal protocols.

Abstract: Modernity only can be expansion, for this today its ways of manifestation are each time spacious and several till catch up to inner levels and private of human being. In the digital era the development of technologies has a dizzy boom that has permit increase its use, access and personal information treatment, generating the right breaking of the owner of it in front of the irresponsibility manifest of private and public being. This plan complex challenges related with compilation and the use of personal information in different areas, and at the some time interrelated as Economy, telecommunications, health and law. Answering the previous in the constitutional boundary as in the ordinary one several countries have configurated law to the personal data protection. In Cuba till 1976 Constitution was inexistence its regulation. Nevertheless with Magna Letter approbation in 2019 is incorporated a precept that recognize it, though it is not count with an specific law where get developed yet. In this direction constitute an objective of this article analyse the main challenges Cuban nation face at the constant technologic progress that society experiments in front of threats of use and incorrect treatment of personal information which implicate undertake actions since the normative limit that fasten constitutional precepts.

Resumen: La modernidad solo puede existir en expansión, por ello hoy sus formas de manifestarse son cada vez más amplias y diversas hasta alcanzar las esferas más íntimas y privadas de la persona humana. En la era digital el desarrollo de las tecnologías tiene un auge vertiginoso que ha permitido incrementar el uso, acceso y tratamiento de información personal, generando la vulneración de los derechos del titular de ésta ante la manifiesta irresponsabilidad de entes públicos y privados. Ello plantea retos complejos relacionados con la recopilación y uso de la información personal en áreas muy distintas y a la vez, interrelacionadas como la economía, las telecomunicaciones, la salud o el Derecho. Como respuesta a lo anterior tanto en el ámbito constitucional como ordinario diversos países han configurado el derecho a la protección de datos personales. En Cuba, hasta la Constitución de 1976 era inexistente su regulación, sin embargo con la aprobación de la nueva Carta Magna en 2019, se avanza hacia el reconocimiento de este derecho, aunque aún no se cuenta con una ley específica donde se desarrollen los elementos constitutivos del contenido esencial del citado derecho. En tal sentido constituye objetivo de este artículo analizar los principales desafíos que enfrenta la nación cubana ante el constante progreso tecnológico que experimenta la sociedad y consecuentemente las amenazas que puede ocasionar el uso o tratamiento incorrecto de la información personal a los derechos ciudadanos. Lo cual implica emprender acciones desde el ámbito normativo que aseguren los preceptos constitucionales.

Resumo Após o rompimento da barragem de rejeitos da Vale em Brumadinho (Minas Gerais) no início de 2019, um conjunto de pesquisadores e ativistas de várias partes do mundo produziu um mapa temático no Atlas Global de Justiça Ambiental (EJAtlas) reunindo trinta casos de conflitos ambientais em que a mineradora teve um papel importante. No presente artigo, esses casos são analisados à luz dos discursos e práticas de Responsabilidade Social Corporativa (RSC) da Vale, visando explorar a contradição de elevados padrões de RSC na companhia e em outras grandes multinacionais do setor da mineração coexistirem com muitos conflitos socioambientais. A análise indica que a atuação da companhia contrasta com o seu discurso de RSC e que, mesmo quando considera sua atuação responsável e exemplar, a Vale reproduz injustiças ambientais e está, na verdade, praticando Irresponsabilidade Social Corporativa.

Abstract After the Vale’s tailings dam failure in Brumadinho (Minas Gerais) in early 2019, a group of researchers and activists from around the world produced a thematic map in the Global Atlas of Environmental Justice (EJAtlas) including 30 cases of environmental conflicts in which Vale had a prominent role. In this paper, these cases are analysed in light of Vale’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) discourses and practices, aiming to explore the contradiction of high CSR standards in the company and in other large multinationals in the mining sector coexisting with many socio-environmental conflicts. The analysis indicates that the company’s performance contrasts with its CSR discourse and that, even when Vale considers its performance both responsible and exemplary, the company reproduces environmental injustices and is therefore rather practicing Corporate Social Irresponsibility.

Resumen Después del colapso de la presa de relaves de Vale en Brumadinho (Minas Gerais) a principios de 2019, un grupo de investigadores y activistas de todo el mundo elaboró un mapa temático a partir del Atlas Global de Justicia Ambiental (EJAtlas) que reúne treinta casos de conflictos ambientales en los cuales esta empresa minera jugó un papel importante. En este artículo, estos casos se analizan a la luz de los discursos y prácticas de la Responsabilidad Social Empresarial (RSE) de Vale, con el objetivo de explorar la contradicción de los altos estándares de RSE de la empresa y de otras grandes multinacionales del sector minero, que coexisten paralelamente con muchos conflictos socioambientales. El análisis indica que el desempeño de la empresa contrasta con su discurso de RSE y que, aún considerando su desempeño responsable y ejemplar, Vale reproduce injusticias ambientales y, de hecho, practica la Irresponsabilidad Social Empresarial.

Resumo A temática irresponsabilidade social empresarial (IrSE) ganhou destaque na literatura mundial. No Brasil, o desastre causado pela Samarco Mineração S.A. em 2015 foi alvo de repercussão, constituindo uma oportunidade para estudar a IrSE. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar se a identificação social com a empresa, que surge em função dos benefícios econômicos, reduz a intenção punitiva e a atribuição de culpa. O instrumento de pesquisa contém escalas com indicadores psicométricos aplicados a 1.616 indivíduos. Constatou-se que os benefícios para a economia local reduziram a intenção punitiva nas cidades de Anchieta-ES, Guarapari-ES e Mariana-MG. O que não ocorreu nas cidades de Colatina-ES e Linhares-ES, que não recebem benefícios econômicos, mas foram afetadas pelo desastre. Identificou-se, ainda, que a severidade do evento aumentou a atribuição de culpa e a intenção punitiva aumentou a intenção de comentários negativos. Como principal conclusão, onde a empresa gerou benefícios, as pessoas estavam menos propensas a puni-la.

Abstract The issue of corporate social irresponsibility (CSIR) has gained prominence in world literature. This study analyzes the 2015 environmental disaster caused by Samarco Mineração S.A. in Mariana (MG), Brazil, as an example of CSIR. The objective was to understand whether the population’s social identification with the company, which is translated into the economic benefits, reduced punitive intention, and blame attribution. The research instrument uses scales with psychometric indicators applied to 1,616 individuals. It was verified that the benefits to the local economy reduced the punitive intention in the municipalities of Anchieta and Guarapari (ES), and Mariana (MG). This was not the case for Colatina and Linhares (ES). Also, it was observed that the disaster’s severity increased blame attribution, and the punitive intention increased the intention to engage in negative word-of-mouth (WOM) about the company. As the main conclusion, people were less likely to punish the company in the municipalities where it generated economic benefits.

Como conclusión, donde la empresa generó beneficios, la gente estaba menos propensa a castigarla.

Situated within the neoclassical micro-economic and migration networks theories, this study used in-depth interviews to explore the circumstances, lived experiences, risk and vulnerabilities of female migrants in selected informal sector businesses in the Cape Coast Metropolis of Ghana. The data was processed and analyzed thematically using the QSR Nvivo qualitative software version 11. Participants reported varied and complex lived experiences. Poverty, the search for employment, parental irresponsibility and marital instability were the dominant explanations for their decisions to migrate. Most participants intimated that their health and economic rights were often violated, that they endured verbal abuse, physical injury, sexual harassment, and were compelled to work even when sick. Their daily or monthly earnings were at the mercy of their employers, and their work, living and sleeping environments were unsafe. Considering that these findings reflect what generally prevails in other parts of the country, Ghana is unlikely to achieve Target 8.8 ofthe Sustainable Development Goal 8. There is therefore an urgent need to enforce the relevant laws and policies to protect the fundamental human rights, safety, health and well-being of females in these and similar livelihood activities in Ghana.

Resumen La presente investigación es de tipo descriptiva. Se llevó a cabo con el propósito de conocer la percepción de los docentes de la carrera de Comunicación Social de la Universidad San Francisco Xavier de Chuquisaca (USFXCH), respecto al uso y potencialidades de las Redes Sociales (RRSS) y servicios de Mensajería Instantánea (IM) en la función educativa. Los instrumentos que se utilizó fueron: el cuestionario, que se administró a 25 profesores (número total del plantel de educadores); y la entrevista semiestructurada, que se aplicó a cinco informantes clave, utilizando un tipo de muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia Según los resultados, Whatsapp y Facebook son las herramientas digitales generales más conocidas y utilizadas, 80% realizan algunaacción con ellas todos los días, tanto en lo laboral como en lo personal; mientras que Moodle y Zoom son los medios digitales educativos más requeridos. Los profesores consideran que las RRSS y la IM son muy útiles porque benefician la comunicación horizontal, el contacto y el intercambio de información instantánea, favorecen a la complementación de las clases presenciales, el autoaprendizaje, la interacción grupal en línea, el trabajo colaborativo, generan nuevas opciones de evaluación y formas dinámicas de aprendizaje. En contrapartida, pueden ocasionar una deshumanización del proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje, estados de aislamiento, distracción, pérdida de tiempo, desconcentración, impuntualidad, irresponsabilidad y algún tipo de adición que afecte el rendimiento académico. Por último, recomiendan crear espacios de reflexión crítica acerca de las ventajas de dichas TIC, y promover que tanto docentes como discentes desarrollen competencias digitales adecuadas, previa planificación didáctica y metodológica.

Abstract The present investigation is descriptive. It was carried out with the purpose of knowing the perceptionoftheteachersof Social Communication professor of the Universidad San Francisco Xavier de Chuquisaca (USFXCH), regarding the use and potentialities of the Social Networks (RRSS) and Instant Messaging (IM) services in educational. A questionnaire, was administered to the 25 faculty professors and semi-structured interview, was applied to five key informants, results show that Whatsapp and Facebook are the best known and most used tools, 80% of professorrs use them at least once every day, both at work and in their personal lives; while Moodle and Zoom are the most required educational digital media. Professors consider that RRSS and IM are very useful because they benefit horizontal communication, contact and instantaneous exchange of information, they complet face-to-face classes, self-learning, online group interaction, collaborative work, generate new evaluation options and dynamic forms of learning. On the other hand, they can cause a dehumanization of the teaching and learning process, states of isolation, distraction, loss of time, lack of concentration, unpunctuality, irresponsibility and affect academic performance. Finally, Professors recommend creating spaces for critical reflection on the advantages of such ICTs, and promoting that both teachers and students develop adequate digital competencies, following didactic and methodological planning.

Introducción: Durante el desarrollo del proceso educativo en la Carrera de Medicina, todo docente en algún momento tropezó con innumerables obstáculos relacionados con el bajo rendimiento académico de sus alumnos, atribuyéndose esta situación a la falta de capacidad, irresponsabilidad e interés entre otros factores; sin embargo jamás se tomó en cuenta los elementos subjetivos del educando como lo es la autoestima.

Résumé Le présent article vise à nous rapprocher de l’un des sujets les plus sensibles et les moins étudiés de l’historiographie du Michoacan: l’enfance et l’environnement social dans lequel ils ont participé au cours de la seconde moitié du xviiie siècle à Valladolid de Michoacán. En ce sens, tout au long du texte, on a décrit des moments au cours desquels les enfants ont été plongés dans une série de situations qui les ont affectés et qui, dans certains cas, ont pu entraîner la mort, principalement en cas de maladie; nous verrons aussi des situations liées aux abus sexuels, à l’irresponsabilité des parents, aux conditions raciales et même à la dynamique d’un simple amusement qui pourrait parfois les marquer. C’est pourquoi nous pensons que, dans le présent, ces facteurs n’ont pas complètement changé pour beaucoup d’entre eux.

Abstract The present article aims to bring us closer to one of the most sensitive and least studied topics within Michoacan historiography: the childhoods and the social environment in which they were participants during the second half of the 18th century in Valladolid de Michoacán. In this sense, throughout the text there are described moments in which the children were immersed in a series of situations that affected them, and in some cases, they could lead to death, mainly when there is illness; also, we will see situations related to sexual abuse, the irresponsibility of parents, racial conditions and even the dynamics of a simple amusement that could sometimes leave a mark on them. Therefore, it is the reflection that in our present, these factors have not entirely changed for many of them.

Resumen El presente artículo tiene como objetivo acercarnos a uno de los temas más sensibles y menos estudiados dentro de la historiografía michoacana: las infancias y el entorno social en que eran partícipes durante la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII en Valladolid de Michoacán. En este sentido, a lo largo del texto se describen momentos en los cuales los niños se veían inmersos en una serie de situaciones que les afectaban, y que en algunos casos, los podían llevar a la muerte, principalmente cuando se trataba de enfermedades; asimismo, veremos situaciones relacionadas con el abuso sexual, la irresponsabilidad de los padres, las condiciones raciales y hasta las dinámicas de una simple diversión que en ocasiones podía dejar huella en ellos. Por lo anterior, cabe la reflexión de que en la actualidad estos factores no han cambiado del todo en el acontecer de los niños.
