Writing for the Planet Kyoto

The emergence of digital libraries and access to information has led to the emergence of models of the questions that are raised about the feasibility of such systems in developing countries in the context of the shift towards globalization of information services. The debate has focused on whether the emergence of digital libraries will benefit developing countries or in fact deepening social inequality. Questions about whether digital libraries will improve teaching and research results at universities in developing countries was also raised, and therefore helps to reduce the existing information gap between developed and developing countries. This study aims to measure the extent of education and scientific research in the Jordanian academic institutions, which are being strengthened and supported through the implementation of digital library services and their potential to provide such services output. This study used a number of faculties of Jordanian universities, a faculty of medicine at the University of Jordan, Pharmacy - Hashemite University, Engineering at the University of Science and Technology of Jordan, Management and Economics at Yarmouk University, Human Sciences in Al-Balqa Applied University. This study is based on the 6 survey method field, which is the best way to measure performance in this type of study, used the method of resolution as a key tool for research and data collection, and was distributing 400 copies of the questionnaire to a sample study of the professors, and graduate students, and students in grades ending of undergraduate, as well as staff. It was adopted and analysis (396) questionnaire, and neglected the remaining four for lack of integration of their data. The results showed that weakness of media outlets in the definition of the users of the importance of digital libraries, which was reflected on the lack of experience of the users to take advantage of them and invest her properly. The study recommended to achieve the expected success of the project Digital Library, and the highest amount of interest to the researchers, must provide full and free texts for research and other digital sources, it is still a high proportion of those sources in the rules of international information that was to link to request financial amounts.

Después de 14 años de existencia, la revista Ciencias Sociales y Educación llega a su final, pues a partir del número 25 solo publicará artículos resultado de investigación. Esperamos que la publicaicón de la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales y Humanas continúe como un espacio para la circulación y discusión de investigaciones en el campo de las ciencias sociales y humanas en Colombia y fuera del país. Fue grato la labor realizada durante todos estos años de persistencia estética y obstinación como espacio otro en el mundo de las revistas científicas.

This paper approaches the representation of age in post-Independence Indian literature through a close reading of the iconoclastic Hindi writer K.B. Vaid's short play, 'Our Old Woman' (2000). The aged woman at the heart of the play is clearly both a real person ('somebody's mother'), and also the postcolonial nation, while the surrounding chorus prefigures her unmindful children/ citizens trying to work out what they owe her. The paper argues that while Vaid's postcolonial dramatization of the figure of 'Mother India' continues to deploy age as a metaphor for social, political and cultural decline, it also feeds off the materiality of the ageing body, its lack of integrity, autonomy, and slippery location along rigid binaries of youth and age, to foreground an altogether more deviant account of the nation as one that is heterogeneous, discrepant, and mutable rather than timeless, essential and unchanging.

El presente ensayo constituye una contribución a pensar a la forma-de-vida como un "afuera" de la representación. Si la forma-de-vida no estuvo jamás consignada en la tradición filosófica, si lo estuvo en la forma negativa de la stásis (guerra civil) cuya actualidad irrumpe en la forma de la revuelta. Sirviéndonos de los trabajos de Nicole Loraux, la filosofía política constituiría un esfuerzo por "denegar" la stásis y, en este sentido, neutralizar la irrupción de la forma-de-vida (katechón). La revuelta será, en este sentido, un devenir menor propiamente stasiológico que pondrá en juego la radicalidad de una forma-de-vida, esto es, una vida irreductible a cualquier régimen de representación. Por eso, toda revuelta será hostil a la ciudad (pólis).
