El crecimiento de las microempresas (Mypes) en Tehuacán, es una preocupación actual dada la importante aportación a la producción del Estado de Puebla y el empleo. Tal crecimiento se puede medir a través de la Reputación Corporativa, pero para tal efecto se requiere de buenas prácticas que son el ejercicio de la ética. Partiendo del modelo tradicional de la justicia social y la ética, el presente trabajo busca relacionar éste, con los aportes sobre reputación corporativa. El estudio demuestra que un empresario que no responde a las preguntas sobre su negocio exhibe una falta de ética. Abstract  The growth of microenterprises (Mypes) in Tehuacán, is a current concern given the important contribution to the production of the State of Puebla and employment. Such growth can be measured through Corporate Reputation, but for this purpose good practices are required that are the exercise of ethics. Starting from the traditional model of social justice and ethics, the present work seeks to relate this, with the contributions on corporate reputation. The study shows that an entrepreneur who does not answer questions about his business exhibits a lack of ethics.

Abstract This work investigates a place of intersection between advertising and politics in Galicia, namely the series of television spots created by the supermarket chain GADIS under the title Vivamos como galegos. Most studies of this series have focused exclusively on the first spot and have argued that the success of the ad is due primarily to the way it makes Galician identity attractive. While agreeing that this factor is important, the present analysis expands on previous studies by analyzing rhetorical devices in and intertextual relationships between five ads in the series to argue that these spots discursively create an imaginary world in which Galician language and culture are timeless and will not be lost. This ideal characteristic responds to a current concern of Galician society, namely, the decreasing use of the regional language among youth. In creating this Galician world, GADIS discursively paints itself as a defender of all things Galician, which has led it to become “a campaña de maior éxito do momento” (Souto 2008, 199).

This chapter on murderesses first considers the theatrical training of young men at the collèges and then turns to Jean Bastier de La Péruse’s Médée (1556). The chapter examines how Médée offers a negative example of violence by manipulating the myth of the infamous filicide on the one hand, and, on the other, by gendering violence to show the irascibility of the female monster who escapes man’s control. The fear of and disdain for women in the period underline the topical urgency of this female threat. Indeed, by staging the murder of Médée’s children and placing this violence in the present tense, rather than keeping the filicides offstage, La Péruse’s tragedy suggests that the Medea archetype inspired by Euripides and Seneca was not simply a mythological figure of the past but very much a current concern in sixteenth-century France.

This chapter examines the global epidemiology of suicidal behaviour. Up to one million people die by suicide every year, and about three quarters of these are in low- and middle-income countries. Twenty to thirty times this number harm themselves or attempt suicide. Global rates are probably under-reported, and the iceberg model of suicidal behaviour (showing that much suicidal behaviour is ‘under the waterline’ and thus hidden) is a helpful way of conceptualizing this. In most countries, men are greatly over-represented amongst people who die by suicide. There is a current concern about men in midlife in many high-income settings. Although suicidal behaviour can vary widely in incidence, it tends to share common antecedents. However, it should be borne in mind that the results of large population-based studies do not always apply to individuals.
