In Venezuela, as in all underdeveloped Latin American countries, there is evidence of state policies aimed at agricultural production in the swine sector, where capitalist dependence is encouraged, with an intensive, rentier and mercantilist economic model, with the worn-out discourse of population growth with the promotion and development of dependent industry. Establishing a submissive culture of individualism, selfishness, attacking any form of collective organization, hiding the popular power, the organized people and community organizations, when it is there where their best living conditions reside, their productive potential, becoming the veiled authority of the capitalist system. This has led to the imposition of conditions of social, economic and cultural rigidity, adhering to an undermined rural pork production, causing the abandonment of land and production to large cities as a mirror of underdevelopment.

Au Venezuela, comme dans tous les pays sous-développés d'Amérique latine, il existe des politiques d'État visant la production agricole dans le secteur porcin, où la dépendance capitaliste est encouragée, avec un modèle économique intensif, rentier et mercantiliste, avec le discours usé de la croissance démographique avec la promotion et le développement de l'industrie dépendante. L'instauration d'une culture de soumission, d'individualisme, d'égoïsme, l'attaque de toute forme d'organisation collective, la dissimulation du pouvoir populaire, des personnes organisées et des organisations communautaires, alors que c'est là que se trouvent leurs meilleures conditions de vie et leur potentiel productif, en devenant l'autorité voilée du système capitaliste. Cela a conduit à l'imposition de conditions de rigidité sociale, économique et culturelle, associées à une production porcine rurale minée, entraînant l'abandon de la terre et de la production au profit des grandes villes, comme un miroir du sous-développement.

A diabetes mellitus é uma doença que se caracteriza por um aumento do nível de glucose no sangue resultante da deficiência de insulina ou da resistência à insulina ou de ambas. Como resultado, pode levar à glicação dos tecidos, que prossegue com distúrbios metabólicos agudos que terminam com danos nos órgãos com graves deteriorações da saúde. Esta situação resulta num aumento dos níveis de glicose no sangue que, por sua vez, danifica muitos sistemas de órgãos como o sistema nervoso, o sistema vascular sanguíneo, etc. A diabetes pode ocorrer devido à destruição autoimune das células ¿ pancreáticas com a consequente deficiência de insulina ou devido a anomalias que resultam em resistência à insulina. Devido à resistência à insulina nos tecidos-alvo, a diabetes provoca anomalias no metabolismo dos hidratos de carbono, das proteínas e das gorduras. Os sintomas da diabetes são poliúria, polidipsia, perda de peso e polifagia. A diabetes não controlada pode levar a consequências agudas que põem a vida em risco, como a cetoacidose ou a síndrome hiperosmolar não cetónica.

Na Venezuela, como em todos os países subdesenvolvidos da América Latina, são evidentes as políticas estatais dirigidas à produção agrícola no sector suinícola, onde se fomenta a dependência capitalista, com um modelo económico intensivo, rentista e mercantilista, com o desgastado discurso do crescimento demográfico com a promoção e desenvolvimento da indústria dependente. Estabelecendo uma cultura submissa de individualismo, egoísmo, atacando qualquer forma de organização colectiva, escondendo o poder popular, as pessoas organizadas e as organizações comunitárias, quando é aí que se encontram as suas melhores condições de vida e potencialidades produtivas, tornando-se a autoridade velada do sistema capitalista. Isto tem levado à imposição de condições de rigidez social, económica e cultural, aliada a uma produção rural de suínos minada, provocando o abandono da terra e da produção para as grandes cidades como espelho do subdesenvolvimento.

Il diabete mellito è una malattia caratterizzata da un aumento del livello di glucosio nel sangue dovuto a carenza di insulina o a resistenza all'insulina o a entrambe. Di conseguenza, può portare alla glicazione dei tessuti, con conseguenti disturbi metabolici acuti che si concludono con un danno agli organi e un grave deterioramento della salute. Tale condizione comporta un aumento dei livelli di glucosio nel sangue che a sua volta danneggia molti sistemi di organi come il sistema nervoso, il sistema vascolare sanguigno, ecc. Il diabete può insorgere a causa della distruzione autoimmune delle cellule ¿ pancreatiche con conseguente carenza di insulina o a causa di anomalie che determinano insulino-resistenza. A causa della resistenza all'insulina nei tessuti bersaglio, nel diabete si verificano anomalie nel metabolismo dei carboidrati, delle proteine e dei grassi. I sintomi del diabete sono poliuria, polidipsia, perdita di peso e polifagia. Il diabete non controllato può portare a conseguenze acute pericolose per la vita, come la chetoacidosi o la sindrome iperosmolare non chetonica.

In Venezuela, wie in allen unterentwickelten lateinamerikanischen Ländern, gibt es Beweise für eine staatliche Politik, die auf die landwirtschaftliche Produktion im Schweinesektor ausgerichtet ist, wo die kapitalistische Abhängigkeit gefördert wird, mit einem intensiven, rentierlichen und merkantilistischen Wirtschaftsmodell, mit dem abgenutzten Diskurs des Bevölkerungswachstums mit der Förderung und Entwicklung der abhängigen Industrie. Die Etablierung einer unterwürfigen Kultur des Individualismus und des Egoismus, die jede Form der kollektiven Organisation angreift, die Macht des Volkes, der organisierten Menschen und der Gemeinschaftsorganisationen versteckt, obwohl gerade dort ihre besten Lebensbedingungen und ihr produktives Potenzial liegen, wird zur verschleierten Autorität des kapitalistischen Systems. Dies hat zur Auferlegung von Bedingungen sozialer, wirtschaftlicher und kultureller Starrheit geführt, gepaart mit einer unterminierten ländlichen Schweineproduktion, die zur Abwanderung von Land und Produktion in die großen Städte als Spiegel der Unterentwicklung führt.

In Venezuela, come in tutti i Paesi sottosviluppati dell'America Latina, è evidente l'esistenza di politiche statali mirate alla produzione agricola nel settore suino, dove si incoraggia la dipendenza capitalistica, con un modello economico intensivo, rentier e mercantilista, con il logoro discorso della crescita demografica con la promozione e lo sviluppo dell'industria dipendente. Stabilendo una cultura sottomessa di individualismo, egoismo, attaccando qualsiasi forma di organizzazione collettiva, nascondendo il potere popolare, le persone organizzate e le organizzazioni comunitarie, quando è proprio lì che si trovano le migliori condizioni di vita e il potenziale produttivo, diventando l'autorità velata del sistema capitalista. Questo ha portato all'imposizione di condizioni di rigidità sociale, economica e culturale, unita a una produzione rurale suina minata, causando l'abbandono della terra e della produzione verso le grandi città come specchio del sottosviluppo.

Die Ansicht um die wahre Natur der im Moorheidegebiet des Exmoors im Südwesten Englands frei lebenden Ponys pendelte in den letzten hundert Jahren mehrfach hin und her zwischen einer sehr ursprünglich gebliebenen Hauspferderasse und einem überlebenden Wildpferd. Für die Klärung dieses Problems entscheidend wichtige quantitative Verhaltensstudien zum Wild- oder Viehwesen dieser Pferde und paläontologische Vergleichsstudien fehlten weitgehend. Dieses Buch bringt nun die Lösung zugunsten einer Reliktpopulation des Europäischen Bergponys und weist damit das kaum für möglich gehaltene Fortleben eines bedeutenden britischen und gesamteuropäischen Naturerbes nach.
