En mi artículo para el Cuaderno 48, Velos y veladuras, exploramos las relacionesentre decoración e identidad, su relación con la condición humana de "poner unpie afuera" y "encajar", y la capacidad del ornamento de transmitir historias a través deltiempo y alimentar la imaginación. Abundante o escaso, el ornamento permite a la menteinterpretar la narrativa, cultural y personal, y la lectura atenta de nuestros entornos ayudaa sintonizar las nuevas obras construidas con las preocupaciones contemporáneas yfuturas. Para este artículo, focalizo en un argumento secundario introducido en Velos yveladuras, donde explico que: "mientras que las mejoras sostenibles a menudo se centranen productos intermedios derivados de la producción, las lecturas cercanas se pueden realizaren sentido ascendente en la secuencia de fabricación, mejorando el bienestar de losfabricantes y la poética de un producto" (Kirkbride, 2013, p. 185). Este trabajo consideravarias escalas y modos de actividades previas, a partir de la tectónica de las cuencas hidrográficasy la gestión del sitio, a la conciencia de la historia y de la posición propia de unoen ella, y la reconceptualización de un producto por los flujos de su cadena de suministroy el ciclo de vida. Voy a recorrer los orígenes de esta idea –un paseo río arriba a través deuna cuenca con problemas durante una lluvia torrencial– y sigo sus influencias en variaslecciones prácticas y ejercicios basados en proyectos desarrollados en Parsons The NewSchool for Design.

The �new style� occupational health and safety legislation implemented in Australia from the late 1970s changed the character of OHS legal obligations, establishing general duties supported by process, performance and, more rarely, specification standards,1 and extending obligations to those who propagate risks as designers, manufacturers, importers or suppliers � the �upstream duty holders�. This article examines how OHS agencies inspect and enforce OHS legislation upstream, drawing on empirical research in four Australian states and relevant case law. We argue that upstream duty holders are an increasing area of attention for OHS inspectorates but these inspectorates have not yet risen to the challenge of harnessing these parties to help stem, at the source, the flow of risks into workplaces.

Downstream communication—from management to employees—can be found in every organization. Managers/officers/owners make decisions about the business, and those decisions are conveyed to the workers using a variety of methods—memos, emails, newsletters, supervisors, company website, etc. Just as important for employee morale, productivity, company loyalty, and union avoidance is upstream communication. Of course, this will happen informally as employees converse with their supervisors in the normal course of business. But these conversations may be rushed and incomplete. The employee may even get the impression that the supervisor isn't interested. Methods such as individual employee conferences, informal conversations with supervisors and small group meetings.

ABSTRACTThis paper investigates how an incumbent monopolist can weaken potential rivals or deter entry in the output market by manipulating the access of these rivals in the input market. We analyse two polar cases. In the first one, the input market is assumed to be competitive with the input being supplied inelastically. We show that this situation opens the door to entry deterrence. Then, we assume that the input is supplied by a single seller who chooses the input price. In this case, we show that entry deterrence can be reached only through merger with the seller of the input.

International audience Centuries after the exclusion of lived experience and the life-world by a science inherited from Platonism, the repressed returns in its purest form: that of a living present recognizing itself as the origin and the blind spot of science, under the pressure of the advances of quantum physics. From there, a radical response is made to the speculative materialist argument of ancestrality. The epistemic correlation does not bind, in time, real objects to empirical human subjects contemporary with them; it binds, upstream of time, the present act of constitution to an always-now constituted natural domain.
