El Códice de la Cruz-Badiano Reflexiones desde la ciencia, la historia y la antropología, 2023
The publication "Conversaciones en torno al Códice de la Cruz Badiano" allows us to take a look at some pictorial documents from Mexico in Berlin, Germany that are little known in Mexico. Like the Códice de la Cruz Badiano, they document a body of knowledge that combined Mesoamerican and European knowledge traditions in the time of the colonial period. However, the lienzos, maps and fragments of Berlin do not have a book format like the Codex Badiano and thematically reflect history, religion, taxes and cartography. Together with the Codex Badianus, they form a valuable synthesis of the entire repertoire of Mesoamerican-European knowledge at that time.
The perspective of various Buddhist traditions offers an illuminating insight into the nature and justification of the concept of privacy in information ethics. This chapter begins by outlining the major literature in the West that deals with the issue. What has emerged in the literature is a common assumption of a separately existing individual whose privacy needs to be protected. Then I present the thoughts of two Buddhist thinkers, Nagasena (1894) and Nagarjuna (1995), who are representatives of the two major traditions: Theravada and Mahayana, respectively. The two Buddhist saints agree that the concept of privacy is a construct, since it presupposes the inherently existing individual, which runs contrary to the basic Buddhist tenet of no-self. However, this does not mean that there can be no analysis and justification of privacy in Buddhism, because there is the distinction between two views regarding reality-the conventional and the ultimate views. Both are indispensable.

Droysen postuló la existencia de una época helenística en la que se dio la fusión de la cultura europea clásica y la asiática oriental. Le dio ese nombre, que se encuentra atestado por primera vez en el segundo libro de los Macabeos (4.13), donde designa la adopción de la cultura, la manera de pensar y el idioma griegos (Bichler: 5-22). El resultado de esa síntesis, según el mismo autor, fue el cristianismo. En este proceso, es importante la literatura porque desde su origen el judaísmo se ha regido e, incluso, se define por medio de una ley escrita a la cual se le fueron agregando libros, algunos aceptados como canónicos, que fueron formando la Biblia, y otros no, los Apócrifos del Antiguo Testamento. En esta época se empieza a escribir una literatura judía más profana, con Filón de Alejandría, que escribió libros de religión, historia y filosofía, y Flavio Josefo, historiador. Este corpus literario conforma el testimonio más directo de la helenización judía, de ahí su importancia ...

The introduction of an information system such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in an organization brings with it changes on how users work. An ERP system cuts across the different functional units of an organization and therefore if not properly managed during its implementation may lead to resistance from the users. The different streams of research on ERP systems have mainly been on ERP adoption, success measurement, and critical success factors (CSFs). There is a paucity of studies on user participation and the contribution of users towards the successful implementation of ERP systems. This paper reviews literature on ERP implementation with an aim of building a case for involving users in this implementation.
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
The government of Ethiopia has made an ambitious plan of building a carbon-neutral and middle-income economy by 2030. In 2016, the country pledged to restore 15 million hectares of degraded landscapes as part of the African Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative (AFR 100). A total of three major forest landscape restoration (FLR) initiatives have been used to achieve this target: participatory forest management (PFM) to engage communities in sustainably managing natural forests; area enclosures/exclosures (AEs) to socially fence hillsides and degraded communal lands and allow these areas regain their productive potential; and sustainable land management program and the Green Legacy Initiative (SLM-GLI) that aim at conserving soil and water resources and planting seedlings to increase forest cover. After describing these FLR initiatives, this study evaluated their impacts on land use land cover change over time and assessed them against the six FLR principles by selecting nationally...
