Cada día se vuelve más apremiante la implementación de sistemas de construcción que resulten sostenibles desde el punto de vista económico, ecológico y sociocultural. En esa línea, el aprovechamiento del bambú abre una amplia gama de oportunidades porque existe un desarrollo creciente de la oferta de este producto. El presente texto se centra en un proceso de diseño que aprovecha tallos (culmos) del bambú de dimensiones medianas –seccionados longitudinalmente y posteriormente reacoplados– para conformar componentes que sean de fácil implementación como estructura de apoyo para la edificación con bajareque, que como se sabe, es una de las técnicas constructivas que mejor comportamiento presentan ante fenómenos sísmicos. La técnica propuesta permite racionalizar el sistema que tradicionalmente se ha realizado de manera empírica, mediante la sistematización del control de calidad de la materia prima y la ejecución de las obras.

The present article describes the results of the analysis of the psico-emotional adaptation strategy, which Ecuadorian students maintain in two different cultural scenarios: first, those that migrate from provinces to Quito city, in order to study in universities of the capital; and second, those that migrate from the whole Ecuador to Moscow, to study in universities at Russia's capital. The aim of the research was to determine if the strategy in both cases is similar, its main characteristics, how effective it could be in the two different cultural scenarios, and the time that can take for Ecuadorian students to finish the adaptation process. The quantitative approach was used for this research, and it was done in correlacional level. Several descriptive and differential statistical methods were used, such as the percentage analysis and the factor and cluster analysis respectively. The main conclusion from this research was the similarity of the psico-emotional strategy used in both stages, the difference between the two groups in the psico-emotional effectiveness that implies the use of this strategy, and the time that take for the students to get an effective adaptation level.

This work objective consisted of determining the factors that limit social entrepreneurship in the  Limoncocha Community ,  Sucumbíos province whose study sample  were 54 inhabitants, among them entrepreneurs and non-entrepreneurs, with a notable majority of entrepreneurs.

As a result, it was found out that the self-perception of each individual exerts an influence on their resistance to risk; money is considered to be a limiting factor and both infrastructure and basic services are the critical point of the community in conjunction with the values and problems within the community.

The author elaborates an exegetical-hermeneutical study, using the historical-critical method, of the story of the universal flood at Genesis 6,1-9,17. This is an elaboration of the yavista (J) and priestly (P) traditions. The yavista presents Noah as the righteous man in the midst of human evil; the priestly presents him as the new Adam, in the midst of the infidelity of the chosen people. The flood represents a return to the initial chaos; the salvation of Noah and his family, a return to the salvific project of God. The story presents us with a biblical anthropology, which recognizes the presence of evil in the human heart, but highlights the fidelity, kindness and obedience of Noah, for which God grants a new salvation.

At the end of the last century, the archdiocese of Lima gave birth by dismemberment to the triplets of the new dioceses of Lima: Carabayllo, Chosica and Lurín. This event, which was conceived and developed over more than four decades of a certain pastoral theological model (1954-1996), had in José Gurruchaga, founder of the Diocese of Lurín, the 'father bishop' who resumed with a seal original the structural bases of such a model.From the theology and anthropology of the diocese, different aspects of the implementation of the new diocese of Lurin are described and interpreted, noting in such a foundational phase, the features not only of a new pastoral theological model, which was dissociated from the model theological pastoral dominant. What is found and recorded is also how much it represents and means the installation of the diocese of South Lima during its first foundational decade for the Church of the future, that is, for the pastoral theological functioning of the same DL and the rest of the new dioceses and centenarians of the Catholic world.

The Theology of Liberation has been a sign of contradiction that bothered certain sectors of the ecclesial and civil institution of our society. Despite fierce opposition and ruthless accusations, the theology of liberation was consolidated in history, as a theology that is presented as intercultural, interreligious and inter-ethnic in a community setting.The Theology of Liberation has as reference the culture of austerity, of the defense of human rights and of the earth. It develops in a cosmocentric vision, in a history conceived as captivity, but focused on liberation.The reason is compassionate and practical of the yearning memory, open to hope and anamnestic reason, which builds a liberating spirituality, for an intercultural and fraternal Christianity. The Theology of Liberation is not dead, it is alive and it is a great theological contribution for our time.

In this article the author analyzes the concept of idea as the central axis of the philosophical system of John Locke, presented in the Second Book of his "Essay on Human Understanding" dedicated to his philosophical argumentation. It analyzes those simple ideas which cannot be invented or destroyed, constituting the raw material for complex ideas.The author argues that Locke, with his theory about the origin of knowledge, was a metaphysical realist. He also presents Locke's corpuscular theory as the best explanation of reality in itself and as the theory that became the belief of all the natural philosophy of the XVII century, thus opening a new scientific perspective that, after the works of Ticho Brahe, Kepler, Galileo, Boyle, concluded in The mathematical principles of natural philosophy of Newton in 1687. Locke knew the work of Newton; however, our author was directly linked with the scientific works of Robert Boyle (1627-1691).
