ABSTRACTContending rationales of peace and conflict coexist between countries and within regional spaces as conditions that motivate or constrain militarized behaviors. While the idea of balancing is still a relevant concept to understand contemporary security in South America, the region produces patterns of a nascent security community. This article argues that the regional repertoire of foreign and security policy practices draws on a hybrid security governance mechanism. The novelty brought by the cumulative interaction among South American countries is that the coexistence turns into a hybrid between both practices and discourses. To explain how hybrid formations are produced, this study analyzes the most empirically intense and academically controversial political and security interactions from interstate relations in the two security complexes in the region, the Southern Cone and the Northern Andes.

Drug Traffic

Paraguay and its closest neighbors, the Rio Plata Basin from one point of view or the Southern Cone from another, have experienced an increasing challenge from the drug traffic in recent years. Initially, everything linked to drug use and traffic was considered—in general, much oversimplified terms — mainly as the social problem of a rich society, primarily that of the United States. The South American countries, preoccupied with surviving the blows of the “lost decade” while trying, simultaneously, both to throw off authoritarian regimes in terminal crisis and to negotiate transitions from democracy, assumed this problem could not affect them. In any event, that aspect of the drug trade which concerned the countries of South America above all was the growing tragedy of Colombia, which was just beginning to make headlines in the world press.

South American Species

After the monographic revision of the genus Senecio Linnaeus (1753: 866) from Chile by Cabrera (1949), several nomenclatural adjustments were made (Jeffrey 1992, Soldano 1998, Calvo 2020, Wu et al. 2020). Herein, we point out the illegitimacy of two names that have widely been accepted in the literature dealing with Senecio in the Southern Cone of South America (Cabrera 1949, Cabrera 1971, Marticorena & Quezada 1985, Freire 2008, Freire et al. 2014, Rodríguez et al. 2018). The respective priority names are indicated. Moreover, the name S. crepidoides Philippi (1894: 252) is lectotypified.

Caiza Roewer, 1925, is considered a junior subjective synonym of Pectenobunus Roewer, 1910, and its type species Caiza colliculosa Roewer, 1925 is newly combined as Pectenobunus colliculosus. The genus Pectenobunus should now include three species distributed in the Southern Cone of South America and Bolivia. Emended diagnoses are given for Pectenobunus and its three species. The diagnostic combination of characters of the genus is discussed, and compared with species with similar morphology found in the southern South American cone. A key for identification of the species included in Pectenobunus is provided. Characters most valuable to systematics penis, abdominal scute, and color pattern are illustrated and described for Pectenobunus colliculosus for the first time.

AbstractThis article analyzes the AFL-CIO’s anticommunist international policy in the period just before and after the overthrow of democratic regimes in Brazil (1964) and Argentina (1966–1976). It focuses on the activities of the American Institute for Free Labor Development (AIFLD), a labor organization closely associated with US foreign policy interests. By highlighting similarities, differences, and direct connections between US labor activities in these two South American countries, I argue that Brazil’s 1964 coup and subsequent dictatorship were key experiences for US trade unionists as they formulated an AFL-CIO labor policy for Argentina and the rest of the Southern Cone.

Fell's Cave lies near the Magellan Straits of South America's Southern Cone. This was the first site to provide evidence of a late Pleistocene occupation of South America, and it is the site where the Fishtail projectile point type was defined. Previous radiocarbon ages from Fell's Cave on charcoal samples from three hearths in the late Pleistocene artifact-bearing levels yielded dates ranging from ca. 11,000 to 10,100 radiocarbon years before present. New radiocarbon dates on curated charcoal samples from these same hearths yield revised ages of ca. 10,800 to 10,400 radiocarbon years before present. These new dates from Fell's Cave agree well with ages from other South American sites in the Southern Cone with Fishtail points and show that the Fishtail projectile point was made from ca. 10,850 to 10,300 radiocarbon years before present or ca. 12,800 to 12,100 calibrated years before present.

AbstractThis chapter presents and characterises the way in which, in the twenty-first century, after years of feminist struggles inside and outside of institutions, gender relations are organised in the different countries of the INCASI project (on the European side, Spain, Italy, Finland, France and the United Kingdom, on the side of the South American Southern Cone, Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay). It pays special attention to the implementation of feminist issues on political agendas, and in particular the assignment of women to unpaid care work—an aspect of the power continuum that we look to relate to other aspects. Gradually and for almost a century all countries in both continents have granted women the status of subjects, citizens and employees. However, the conditions, challenges and timelines of this process differ considerably from one continent to another, so they need to be addressed separately. The neoliberal era did not have the same impact in Europe as it did in South America (nor was it exactly the same between particular European countries or among South American ones).

The objective of this work was to determine the biological characteristics of South American fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann, 1830) (Diptera: Tephritidae) using three fruit hosts. Mature fruits of cherry (Eugenia involucrata DC. (Myrtaceae) (n = 200), guabiroba (Campomanesia xanthocarpa (Mart.) O. Berg. (Myrtaceae) (n=200) and apple Malus domestica Borkh. variety “Gala” (Rosaceae) (n = 100) were placed separately in plastic cages. These fruits were exposed to A. fraterculus for four hours for oviposition. On a daily basis, the resulting larvae and the pupa were separated. Studies on fertility and longevity used 25 pairs of adults that emerged from these fruits. A. fraterculus completed its biological cycle in all fruits tested. The period of development from egg to adult was shorter in fruits of C. xanthocarpa (25.9 days) and E. involucrata (28.6 days) than in those of M. domestica (34.7 days). The pre-oviposition period was shorter in adults, which emerged from fruits of C. xanthocarpa (9.9 days). The results show the importance of native host fruits for population growth of A. fraterculus, and probably, for host availability of larvae of A. fraterculus for natural and applied biological control in the Southern Cone of South America region.

Abstract: An analysis of the television programming flows in 10 South American countries shows that the television landscape has been reconfigured to include new subregional centres and new kinds of asymmetries, particularly in the Southern Cone. The volume of regional television has increased, having more than tripled in the last 20 years. This growth has occurred at the expense of U.S. programming, which still remains the dominant source of imports. In the larger, exporting countries domestic producers have elbowed out both regional and international players. In the smaller, importing countries domestic, regional, and global programs compete for the dominance of the television schedules. Considering the articulation of cultural audiovisual policies has been neglected, it is early to assess whether regional exchanges in television might contribute to the articulation of a regional cultural identity. Résumé: Une analyse de la circulation de programmes de télévision dans dix pays sud-américains montre que la carte de la télévision a été redessinée pour inclure de nouveaux centres sous-régionaux et de nouvelles asymétries, particulièrement dans le Cône sud. Le volume de la télévision régionale a augmenté, ayant triplé dans les vingt dernières années. Cet accroissement a eu lieu au détriment de la programmation américaine, quoique les États-Unis demeurent la plus grande source d'importations. Dans les plus grands pays exportateurs, la production domestique a déplacé la programmation régionale aussi bien que l'internationale. Dans les plus petits pays importateurs, les programmes étrangers, régionaux et domestiques se font concurrence pour la domination des horaires télévisuels. L'articulation de politiques audiovisuelles culturelles ayant été négligée, il est trop tôt pour savoir si les échanges régionaux télévisuels contribueront à l'articulation d'une identité culturelle régionale.
