En tan sólo 19 años del presente siglo, el turismo global ha alcanzado el mayor dinamismo que en ningún otro período había tenido. Al respecto, entre 2008 y 2017se incrementó en 33.7% la llegada de turistas internacionales, lo cual ha hecho evidente la necesidad de abrir nuevos mercados turísticos. En el caso de México, de 2009 a 2018 el número de turistas internacionales prácticamente se duplicó; de hecho, en estos años el país avanzó del décimo al sexto destino en el mundo. En este contexto, el gobierno reconoce que, en materia de economía, el turismo es pieza clave para el desarrollo nacional, por tanto, establece como prioridad la identificación de nuevos sitios para el ocio y la recreación. Este trabajo evalúa la potencialidad turística de los municipios costeros del Pacífico Sur occidental mexicano; región que se extiende por el litoral ubicado entre los estados de Jalisco y Oaxaca. In just 19 years of this century, global tourism has reached the greatest dynamism levels relative to any other equivalent period of time. In this regard, the arrival of international tourists showed a 33.7% rise between 2008 and 2017, evidencing the need to open up new tourist markets. In the case of Mexico, the number of international tourists almost doubled between 2009 and 2018; in fact, in this period, the country advanced from a 10th to sixth top destination worldwide. In this context, the government has acknowledged that, in the field of economy, tourism is key for national development; therefore, it has set the identification of new sites for leisure and recreation as a top priority. This work evaluates the tourist potential of the coastal municipalities of the Mexican southwestern Pacific, a region that stretches along the coastline between the states of Jalisco and Oaxaca.
On May 13, 2020, Chicago established a free communitybased testing (CBT) initiative for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The initiative focused on demographic groups and geographic areas that were underrepresented in testing by clinical providers and had experienced high COVID-19 incidence, including Hispanic persons and those who have been economically marginalized. To assess the CBT initiative, the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) compared demographic characteristics, economic marginalization, and test positivity between persons tested at CBT sites and persons tested in all other testing settings in Chicago. During May 13-November 14, a total of 253,904 SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR tests were conducted at CBT sites. Compared with those tested in all other testing settings in Chicago, persons tested at CBT sites were more likely to live in areas that are economically marginalized (38.6% versus 32.0%; p<0.001) and to be Hispanic (50.9% versus 20.7%; p<0.001). The cumulative percentage of positive test results at the CBT sites was higher than that at all other testing settings (11.1% versus 7.1%; p<0.001). These results demonstrate the ability of public health departments to establish community-based testing initiatives that reach communities with less access to testing in other settings and that experience disproportionately higher incidences of COVID-19.Because of limited access to SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic testing in the early phase of widespread transmission in Chicago, CBT sites began operations on May 13, 2020. The City of Chicago's CBT initiative, with direction from CDPH and the Racial Equity Rapid Response Team, † located sites at community assets (e.g., schools and parks) in areas accessible to Black and Hispanic communities, and in areas with lower per-capita testing rates; testing was offered at no cost to persons tested. These areas were primarily in northwest and southwest Chicago. The CBT initiative focused specifically on Hispanic § persons, because this population had the highest daily incidence of COVID-19 of any racial/ethnic group in Chicago during May 13-November 14, 2020 (1).

En el presente artículo se plantean diferentes aproximaciones teóricas en torno al sonido y al acto de escuchar en la ciudad contemporánea, así como los procesos de producción y significación de la ciudad a través de dicho acto. El objetivo central de este escrito es sumar a las discusiones interdisciplinares del binomio sonido/escucha en el ámbito de los estudios urbanos, ya que dichas disertaciones aún son escasas en el contexto latinoamericano.
Este artículo forma parte de la revisión bibliográfica de una investigación más amplia; nuestro objetivo es comprender cómo los modelos laborales del siglo XXI han transformado las trayectorias de emancipación familiar y económica que se suponía inauguraban el tránsito de la condición juvenil a la adulta. Cuestionamos las categorías de joven y adulto ligadas al mundo laboral para entender cómo han ido cambiando en el contexto latinoamericano. La revisión documental realizada nos permite reflexionar sobre uno de los aspectos señalados con mayor frecuencia en los análisis sobre los jóvenes: la insuficiencia de oportunidades laborales dignas, situación que dificulta su transición a la vida adulta. La independencia económica se ha vuelto cada vez más difícil de conseguir; la precariedad laboral ha ralentizado la llegada a la adultez. Ante este panorama, muchos jóvenes han desarrollado nuevas estrategias para resolver la tensión de acceder a espacios laborales y crear condiciones para su emancipación.
