O protagonismo da china no novo banco de desenvolvimento (NBD) dos Brics e possíveis contradições sob a presidência brasileira

O Novo Banco de Desenvolvimento (NBD) é um banco que busca financiar projetos de infraestrutura e desenvolvimento sustentável nos BRICS (Brasil, Rússia, Índia, China e África do Sul), e em outras economias emergentes. Constituído em 2014, iniciou suas operações em 2016. A escolha da sede Xangai e a indicação de Chen Yuan, ex-presidente do Banco de Desenvolvimento Chinês, para liderar o país na construção do desenho do NBD, são indicadores relevantes da importância que os chineses conferem ao banco. Coube ao Brasil indicar o presidente do NBD em 2020: Marcos Troyjo. Mas as relações entre e Brasil e China se deterioraram no período Bolsonaro e com a explosão da Covid em 2020, os desentendimentos entre os países atingiram patamares inéditos. Esse artigo buscará identificar o protagonismo da China no NBD e apontar contradições de o Brasil estar exercendo a presidência do banco em um contexto de protagonismo mundial chinês.

APPLICATION OF CHEN YUANGAO IN THE TREATMENT OF SOFT TISSUE INJURY OF FOOTBALL PLAYERS

ABSTRACT The treatment of soft tissue injury in football players generally includes physical therapy, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug treatment, surgical treatment and early rest immobilization. Western medicine treatment of soft tissue injury can quickly heal the wound and relieve pain in a short time. The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is based on the whole and must seek the root of the disease. It is believed that the occurrence of certain diseases is related to Qi, blood, liver and kidney deficiency, so we should pay attention to the overall adjustment during treatment of symptoms. In view of this, this study analyzed the effect of Chen Yuan ointment, from traditional Chinese medicine, in the treatment of soft tissue injury. Sixty-eight football players who completed ankle ligament reconstruction were divided into four groups according to the type of operation and whether Chen Yuangao-assisted rehabilitation was used or not. The results showed that the Ankle Hindfoot Function Score and the visual analog scale (VAS) score of patients in the fibula brevis tendon reconstruction Chen Yuan ointment group were 98.3 and 0.3, respectively, at the last follow-up, which were better than those in other groups, and had lower pain scores. This result shows that Chen Yuangao has a certain effect in the treatment of soft tissue injury, which can provide a research idea for the rapid rehabilitation of football players.

Fruits of the Spirit

This chapter examines and compares the lives of two Chinese Christians, Ling Deyuan and Chen Yuan, who worked with the BMS and the SVD. Their stories illustrate the narrowing political options that Chinese Christians faced between 1945 and 1950. By 1950, both Ling and Chen had to denounce their missionary allies and declare allegiance to the new Communist state. Ling and Chen’s stories attune us to the ironies of history and reveal how the missionary encounter helped lay the foundation for Christianity’s position in postwar China. Their engagement with German missionaries, the chapter contends, prepared and armed them with the anti-imperial, anti-Western rhetoric that the Chinese Communists could accept. Their stories help us understand the monumental and dangerous individual choices that Chinese Christians had to make after the Communist victory in 1949.
