Phonetic evidence for the development of the “acute” tone in Slavic
Greenberg, Marc L.
The paper attempts to give a phonetic reconstruction of the processes surrounding the loss of the glottal stop as the reflex of the inherited Proto-Slavic acute. With support from typological evidence and phonetic analysis, it is claimed that the variation in modern Slavic reflexes of the acute results from differing outcomes of the disappearance of the glottal stop: metathesis, straightforward loss, and laryngealization.

Ideología y utopías: Bandidaje, capital y consumo en México
Acosta Morales, Rafael
El artículo estudia los argumentos para crear una historia alternativa de las representaciones del paramilitarismo en México. Retrocediendo a la novela Astucia, de Luis G. Inclán, quien desarrolló un modelo del hombre de su tiempo: el Coronel Astucia. Este personaje participó en la formación de un cartel y actividades paramilitares con el propósito de buscar justicia a través del bandidaje social. Inclán fabula el lado oscuro de México en su primer siglo, ofreciendo un rechazo de las narrativas de creación de estado que los conservadores y liberales proveían. Podemos observar la naturaleza circular del bandidaje en México y cómo sirve de contrapunto a las narraciones tradicionales de soberanía. Ante el nuevo levantamiento armado en Michoacán, que ha producido grupos de autodefensa, este ensayo compara el discurso de Astucia con el de Nazario Moreno, difunto líder de la Familia Michoacana. Se argumenta que la necesidad de limitar el crecimiento del capital empuja a los bandidos sociales a producir discursos que ensamblan una política del consumo, como una forma de producir la imagen de que el bandido confrontara la desigualdad económica.

Tajik Persian: Readings in History, Culture and Society
Ahmad, Razi
Tajik Persian: Readings in History, Culture and Society seeks to help students develop reading proficiency in Tajik at advanced level through authentic texts written for native speakers and provides them glimpses into the history, culture and society of Tajikistan without losing its focus on cultural aspects of the country—an aspect that constitutes a core component in the second language acquisition. The book can be adopted by instructors as a supplementary or the main textbook for advanced-level courses.
