The Tojolabales of Buenavista Bawitz, in the Chiapas state, make throughout the year a circuit of pilgrimages to different sacred points of the entity which has as fundamental purpose to impretrate the rains to the ray-saints. From the study of the ritual and the worldview we will examine the image of Saint Bartholomew, patron of Venustiano Carranza wich is visited by Tojolabales on april of every year. We will see how its climate management capacity derive of a series of conceptions: its faculty of transmuting in ray its association with the hills and the corn.

El libro titulado mediante una puntillosa interrogante "¿ADIÓS DEMOCRACIA DE PARTIDOS? Una mirada desde la Comunicación Política y la Opinión Pública" del profesor e investigador chiapaneco Alberto Zuart Garduño, publicado por Editorial Fragua en este año 2019, repara en un tema de profunda actualidad política. Su objeto de estudio es la crisis de confianza, de representación y la pérdida de identidad de los electores que se ha evidenciado en los partidos políticos tradicionales en México; y esta innegable realidad que se nos ha revelado a los ciudadanos en edad de votar en las últimas elecciones presidenciales desde el año 2000, acentúa una nueva manera de pensar y actuar dentro de la democracia mexicana.

Mexico ranks first in cases of bullying in basic education, affecting more than 18 million students, both public and private institutions (OCDE, 2014). Students affected by bullying suffer repeated humiliations and acts of violence, resulting in low self-esteem, low school performance, attrition, and sleep problems. In addition to presenting severe emotional conflicts and depression, which in some cases leads to death. The present study presents results of an analysis of the construction of concepts and perceptions about bullying, harassment and intimidation by upper secondary students, which allows the possibility of reflecting that the imputation of violence to a school aetiology is frequently postulated; But rarely proved.

The mass media are cultural industries of high consumption amongst Mexican population, becoming a reference to explain the popular culture and the social behavior. From them, television keeps going a high popular influence mass, from messages that seek to respond to the information and entertainment needs of all sectors. In matter of gender and cultural representation, the TV messages associate the masculine figure with the stereotype of the strong, successful and productive man, which invisibilizes a reality of the masculinities in Mexico, transgress the human development and reinforces the inequity between man and women. This situation implies in a silent conflict that violence the Human Rights and the legal environment of the television as a media. That is why is necessary to rule the media and the message in order to transform the traditional structures of power in the democratic systems, taking the cognitive mediation as an alternative method of solution of controversies.

The economy of Chiapas faces a structural crisis, which is why this paper analyzes its performance with a long-term vision (1900-2015). There is still no research about the causes of its low growth, which has lagged it behind the national average and maintains it as the federal entity with the highest levels of poverty and increasing flows of migration to the United States of America. The production of studies on the subject and the regional results of the change of national strategy in this regard since 1982 is null. That is why this investigation deals with such effects. It is worth noting the lack of an analytical base supported on the predominant economic policy in Mexico and its brand in impoverished territories in a context dominated by global trends that alter the regions of the countries in many ways.

Caleidoscopio sonoro. Músicas urbanas en Chiapas (2017) de Martín de la Cruz López Moya, es un libro que se plantea desde la frontera como lugar de enunciación. No me refiero solamente al lugar geográfico, Chiapas, sino a la convivencia de discursos y planteamientos que hallo en él. Me referiré a tres sentidos de frontera.

The concept of “elite” frequently appears in public discussion and in specialized literature in social sciences. However, unlike what happens in this last field, in the media and through the daily informal exchanges, “elite” seems to have multiple meanings that distorts its original meaning. Therefore, it is precisely to step back in the timeline, to its origin. The concept means the way in which it has been problematized and what occurs with it in the contemporary debate.

En la Odontología, así como en otras disciplinas del área de la salud, las radiografías son un apoyo de gran utilidad en el momento de hacer un diagnóstico y elaborar el plan de tratamiento adecuado, obteniendo con esto resultados plenamente favorables; sin perder de vista y tomando en cuenta, que las radiaciones por más mínimas que estas sean, siempre son nocivas para nuestro organismo, por lo que resulta importante protegerse de ellas por los medios que estén a nuestro alcance, ofreciéndonos seguridad y confianza en el manejo de los aparatos de rayos X. En el presente trabajo tomamos como base la construcción de una protección con las laminillas de plomo, material nocivo de desecho, pero que aplicado en las paredes del gabinete de rayos X protege de las radiaciones.

During the rainy season in the Mexican state of Tabasco there are landslides over the rivers that flow through the state, being some of the most affected area the one called ¨La Manga¨. This paper presents the stability analysis evolution of the side slope due to changes over the soils saturation that forms it, going from safety condition to failure condition. In order to achieve this goal, a campaign of field exploration and laboratory tests was first carried out, which allowed obtaining the geometric characteristics of the side slope, as well as the soil properties that constitutes it. From the undisturbed samples obtained in the exploration field, triaxial compression tests were carried out, varying only the degree of saturation of the soil. With the information obtained and through the GeoSlope 2012 software, stability analyses were performed varying only the degree of saturation. The results show that as the degree of saturation increases, the stability of the board decrease. It was found that exceeding 70% degree of saturation implies a slip hazard condition. Therefore, the monitoring of the soil degree of saturation that constitutes side slopes allows to anticipate its failure and, consequently, makes it possible to establish prevention actions.

This work presents from the relationship of the social thing that the professors and directors construct in the Technical School Council; the construction of meanings that through interaction they share; so he asks himself; What are the symbols that occur in the interactions that give meaning to the collegiate of teachers and managers? What are the images that are described in the collegiate performance and the meaning they represent in the behavior of the group? The objective; interpret the production of meaning that is generated in the images of collegiate interaction that describe the meaning of the actions of teachers and managers in the School Technical Council. The defined focus of the study of the life of human groups and their behavior based on the theoretical perspective of social interaction, from the conception of meaning that arises as a consequence of the collegiality that each one maintains with the other, and that these modify through the interpretation of social production in situ, this process guides the social research methodology under the explanatory approach of the grounded theory, the theoretical sampling as a tool for the collection of successive data, starting with open codes on the data collected to determine new phenomena for its analysis, the results are foundations for successive research processes. As result we have that the meanings in the collegial interaction of professors and managers is based on the dynamic interconnection where the symbols that emerge from the interactive acts, are an expressive endowment in a framework of what the creation of own norms of the context supposes. "Performances", the actors through the symbols that emerge from the interactive acts are producing an expressive endowment of these cultural scenes.
