In particular, these relations allow to obtain several bounds for the polynomials and kernels relative to a generalized Jacobi weight with a finite number of mass points. §0. Introduction.

This commentary highlights ways to address these social biases in communities of color in Los Angeles, California, from the perspectives of staff from HIV prevention programs. Information was collected from HIV prevention program staff participating in a 2-day symposium. The outcomes from the symposium offer strategies for developing and implementing HIV prevention services for Latino and African American gay and bisexual men, which include: (1) addressing social biases present in a community that can hinder, and even prohibit, utilization of effective HIV prevention programs; (2) recasting HIV prevention messages in a broader social or health context; (3) developing culturally appropriate HIV prevention messages; (4) exploring new modalities and venues for delivering HIV prevention messages that are appropriate for gay and bisexual men of color and the communities in which they live; and (5) broadening the target of HIV prevention services to include service providers, local institutions and agencies, and the community at-large. These strategies underscore the need to consider the social and contextual factors of a community when designing and implementing HIV prevention programs.

El Fondo ha demostrado una importante capacidad de adaptación, aunque sería deseable que reaccionara con mayor rapidez frente a estos cambios. Las crisis de la cuenta de capital que comenzaron a mediados de los noventa han supuesto un difícil reto para el Fondo. Es evidente que ha cometido algunos errores en sus actuaciones en los últimos años, pero está realizando un esfuerzo por aprender de los mismos e incorporar esas lecciones a sus políticas. No obstante, aún debe afrontar retos importantes, entre los que destacan decidir exactamente qué papel se quiere que cumpla dentro del sistema monetario y financiero internacional, así como actualizar su reparto de poder interno. Palabras clave: instituciones financieras internacionales, crisis financieras, sistema monetario internacional, FMI. Clasificación JEL: F02, F33.
