El propósito de este trabajo es dar a conocer parte de los resultados de una investigación sobre el proceso de implementación de una política social alimentaria a través de Comedores Comunitarios en atención a la inseguridad alimentaria en la ciudad de Culiacán, Sinaloa, México. El objetivo fue conocer los elementos socioculturales que determinan la eficiencia del programa social. El diseño de la investigación es descriptivo-interpretativo utilizando un enfoque cualitativo basado en un método hermenéutico-critico que recupera los discursos de 30 beneficiarios de 27 Comedores Comunitarios que operan el programa en la Ciudad de Culiacán, Sinaloa, México. Los hallazgos muestran que las representaciones del proyecto político significan para el beneficiario una opción de alimentación y crean un espacio de convivencia y descanso, los discursos muestran lo que viven y sienten respecto a la cotidianidad del comensal. Asimismo se visualiza la necesidad del conocimiento de las determinantes socioculturales de la alimentación para contribuir a transformar la realidad alimentaria, pues reconoce los factores estructurales de la inseguridad alimentaria, pero también las condicionantes en el seno de las prácticas sociales de las familias, ya que ambas son importantes a la hora de la toma de decisiones de la política alimentaria. The purpose of this paper is to present some of the results of a research into the process of implementing of a social food policy through Community Kitchens in response to food insecurity in the city of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico. The objective was to know the sociocultural factors that determine the efficiency of this social program. The research design is descriptive-interpretive using a qualitative approach based on a hermeneutic-critical method that recovers the discourses of 30 beneficiaries of 27 Community Kitchens who operate the program in the City of Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico. The findings show that the representations of the political project mean for the beneficiary a food option and create a space for conviviality and rest, the speeches show what they live and feel with regard to daily life of the diner. Likewise, the need for knowledge of the sociocultural determinants of food is visualized to contribute to transforming the food reality, since it recognizes the structural factors of food insecurity, but also the conditions within the social practices of families, meanwhile both are important when making food policy decisions.

The socio-legal perspective on the alcohol legislation, including the norms concerned with the relationship between individuals and alcoholic drinks, helps answering some essentials questions: what was/is the "social construction" of the alcohol problem in different eras and different cultures and, consequently, which objectives are deemed to be worthy of pursuit through the creation or amendment of legislation? Which social actors have the ability, in a given period of time, to inscribe the relevance of innovative alcohol legislation on the political agenda and what kind of dialectic is used among those who champion points of view, competences and above all, different interests? Which interests and values would appear to meet with legislatory protection time after time? What tools, of the ample range available, are chosen to achieve the aims set out? To what extent is legislation implemented (or not implemented), and why? Which aspects of the implementation process prove to be most significant, i.e. define the actual content of the legislation "in force", and are therefore tangibly experienced by the law's end target? How much of an impact does legislation have on behavior which is subject to regulation or on problems which stem from such behavior?

Resumo Atualmente no Brasil é possível observar uma parcela da população jovens, principalmente nas classes sociais mais baixas, sujeitos a situações que acarretam maior susceptibilidade para se envolver com drogas, prostituição, crimes, gravidez e doenças sexualmente transmissíveis. Diversos fatores psicossociais são necessários para que os adolescentes passem pela adolescência sem a necessidade deste tipo de envolvimentos. A recreação e o lazer podem ser usados como instrumento para facilitar a inclusão social e ao mercado de trabalho de jovens marginalizados. O impacto emocional positivo do uso da recreação e do lazer favorece o bem-estar e auxilia na inclusão social de adolescentes, e possibilitam o uso dessas ferramentas para serem explorados em eventos e atividades recreativas. Nesse contexto, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo mostrar a importância do desenvolvimento de projetos sobre recreação e o lazer para a inclusão social de jovens. Para isso é relatada a experiência com o Programa Social realizado na cidade de Guarulhos/SP intitulado Programa Oportunidade ao Jovem, que busca a qualificação profissional dos jovens da cidade que se encontram em situação de risco e pobreza, e que estão em geral excluídos da sociedade. Mostramos aqui que a inclusão social por meio de programas sociais usando atividades recreativas facilita a inserção social de jovens marginalizados e devem ser consideradas nas políticas públicas. Pois ainda permitem que adolescentes em situação econômica precária tenham a possibilidade de exercer uma profissão na área de recreação ao término dos cursos dos programas, impactando significativamente na vida desses jovens.   Palavras-chave: Programa Social. Agente de Recreação. Políticas Públicas.   Abstract In Brazil it is possible to observe a portion of the young population, mainly in the lower social classes, who are subject to situations that cause greater susceptibility to get involved with drugs, prostitution, crimes, pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. Several psychosocial factors are necessary for adolescents to go through adolescence without the need for this type of involvement. Recreation can be used as an instrument to facilitate social inclusion and the labor market for marginalized youth. The positive emotional impact of recreation favors well-being and assists in the social inclusion of adolescents and enables the use of these tools to be explored in events and recreational activities. In this context, this paper aims to show the importance of developing projects on recreation for the social inclusion of young people. For this, the experience with the Social Program carried out in the city of Guarulhos / SP entitled Programa Oportunidade ao Jovem, which seeks the professional qualification of young people in the city who are at risk and poverty, and who are in general excluded from society, is reported. We show here that social inclusion through social programs using recreational activities facilitates the social insertion of marginalized youth and should be considered in public policies. Because they still allow adolescents in a precarious economic situation to have the possibility of exercising a profession in the area of recreation at the end of the program courses, significantly impacting the lives of these young people   Keywords: Social Program.

Within the framework of the implementation of the Integrated National Healthcare System (SNIS) along with national policies of information and communication at the República Oriental del Uruguay, a research is being conducted, focusing on adolescents and young people in vulnerable contexts in the city of Montevideo, taking them as both real and potential users of healthcare information. It also centers in the mediators in the flow of communication and information, especially among healthcare staff. From a multi-interdisciplinary approach, this investigation aims at identifying the behaviors and needs of the target population in relation to the information and ICTs, the availability and access to personal technological resources, its context of use (the community, their everyday lives, the institutions), the process of interaction among the different social actors in the sector, as well as in the communication flow within the organizational culture of these services. On this basis, it will provide models to design electronic information resources according to the social needs, and which may contribute to the inclusion of all citizens in the so-called Information Society.

Graffiti art and street art have been increasingly described as an artistic movement, with a constant presence in the streets, but also in galleries and museums. In this article we use the term urban art to define this institutionalized category, originating from informal street expressions. In the specific context of the city of São Paulo (Brazil), most of the social actors that make up this art world have backgrounds linked to graffiti and pixação. These two urban subcultures are linked to informal forms of appropriation of the urban space through illicit inscriptions. In this article, we aim, on the one hand, to describe the features and singularities of urban art as an emerging art world and, on the other, to understand how careers are developed in this universe. The empirical data derives from a qualitative research (in-depth interviews and ethnographic observation) developed during the past three years.

The structural organization of the city's architectural environment, including territories, spaces, and loci, is considered. It is shown that the architectural environment of the historical center of the city is characterized by special subject-spatial inclusions-loci of power. The complex dynamics of the interdependence of social existence and the architectural environment determines the relevance of studying the interaction of the locus (architecture) of power and society. The basic features of the architecture of power are considered: sociotechnical character, features of functioning, orderliness of the structure. The author analyzes the advantages and social significance of the power architecture, the latent features of the functional structure, the diachrony of compositional properties and the principles of ensuring closeness. The potential influence of power using architecture semantics is correlated with the processes of implementing algorithms for habitation, distribution, and dominance. The transformation of the status of the architectural space of power is considered not only as an architectural and planning transformation, but also as a change in its semantics and attitude to it. It is argued that the conceptualization of the locus (the assertion of authenticity) is converted into the popularity, influence, and economic growth of the locality. The social significance of loci of power is in their ability to subject-spatial modeling of social reality; in the formation of the potential for relieving social tension; in prompting the behavior of social actors in non-standard situations. It is noted that modern spaces of power are characterized by a gradual rejection of traditional closeness in favor of simulated openness. It is stated that the image of the architectural space of power is one of the angles of the socio-historical portrait of power.

In the first part of the paper the author presents the key theses of Vickie Sullivan’s‎reading of Machiavelli. Sullivan argues that, in order to prevent corruption,‎Machiavelli innovatively reworks elements of Christian teaching‎for entirely temporal purposes and offers a specific, modern solution, ‘new‎Rome’, in the form of an irreligious, fearful republic which early and effectively‎punishes the ambitious few seeking to establish tyranny. In the internal‎realm of the city, the Florentine reduces class desires of the plebs and the‎greats under the common goal of acquisition. A bellicose, tumultuous republic‎satisfies the desires of all the social actors, resulting in a lasting political order.‎In the second part the author critically engages with Sullivan’s interpretation,‎drawing on Claude Lefort’s interpretation of Machiavelli. Surprisingly,‎Lefort’s groundbreaking work on Machiavelli has been absent in Straussian‎readings of the Florentine. By highlighting the authentically democratic nature‎of Machiavelli’s project, in contrast with Sullivan’s reading, an entirely‎different ‘new Rome’ arises on the horizon.

Resumen: desde hace varios años, los gobiernos nacionales y las instituciones internacionales han generado un conjunto de estrategias con el objetivo de disminuir los problemas ambientales, mediante la creación de reservas naturales. A pesar de ello, las acciones no consensuadas sobre la conservación no resuelven el deterioro ambiental, debido a que se debilita el tejido social necesario para impulsar un proceso de desarrollo comunitario sustentable; la conservación se trasforma en una actividad o interés ilegítimo para la población local, lo que endurece las posturas y dificulta la búsqueda conjunta de soluciones. Esto es lo que ha sucedido recientemente con los pescadores del puerto de San Felipe, Baja California, quienes en un par de ocasiones han cerrado la vía de comunicación terrestre entre Mexicali y el puerto, y se ha llegado al extremo de cerrar la garita internacional Mexicali-Calexico. Este malestar social, que amenaza con un mayor escalamiento, es el resultado de la negativa de los pescadores de San Felipe (y ahora también del Golfo de Santa Clara, en Sonora) para modificar su arte de pesca, acorde con lo que plantea la nueva norma oficial mexicana.Palabras clave: norma oficial mexicana; chinchorro de línea; red de arrastre; reserva de la biosfera; alto golfo de California; vaquita marina; actores sociales; pesca.Abstract: for several years now, national governments and international institutions have generated a set of strategies with the aim of reducing environmental problems by creating nature reserves. However, it is worth mentioning that under the conservation scenario, non-consensual actions do not resolve the environmental degradation due to the weakening of the social fabric necessary to start a process of sustainable community development, and, as a result, conservation becomes illegitimate to the local population, which hardens positions and makes it difficult to search for joint solutions. The latter is what has been happening recently with the fishermen of the Port of San Felipe, Baja California, who on a couple of occasions have closed the highway between the city of Mexicali and the port, and has gone so far to close the international border between Mexicali and Calexico. This social unrest that threatens to escalate further is the result of the refusal of the San Felipe fishermen (and now the Gulf of Santa Clara in Sonora) to modify their fishing gear according to the new official standard (NOM-002-SAG / PESC-2013). Key words: Mexican Official Standard; gillnet; drift net; Biosphere Reserve; Upper California Gulf; vaquita porpoise; social actors; fishing.

This article focuses on the case of the city of Kortrijk, Belgium, which in 2017 received the title of Creative City of Design from Unesco, especially the MyMachine, SPEK, and 5X5® Projects. The objective was to identify the main elements responsible for winning the title. To meet this objective, we opted for descriptive exploratory research, through bibliographic research. Among the results, it was possible to show that the city has come over the years, developing socially and economically based on its actions and strategies in the design and education, creative projects, and entrepreneurship, even long before being part of Unesco's World Network of Creative Cities. It was observed that Kortrjik has a driving role, mainly because it manages to create an innovation ecosystem with all the social actors involved in this process, highlighting the MyMachine, SPEK and 5X5® Projects, articulated with governmental, private initiative and civil society, giving the city a potential for relevant social innovation.
