Published: December 2024

При ведении взрывных работ в карьерах очень важным является выбор промежуточных детонаторов (ПД) с достаточным начальным импульсом для инициирования скважинных зарядов. Установлено влияние массы ПД на скорость детонации основных зарядов взрывчатых веществ (ВВ). Масса заряда инициатора начального импульса скважинных зарядов эмульсионных ВВ должна быть не менее 500 г для избежания возникновения отказавших взрывов скважинных зарядов. Приведены основные характеристики ПД для инициирования зарядов. Показано соотношение скорости детонации ПД и скорости детонации эмульсионных ВВ. Установлено, что состав и детонационные характеристики ПД практически не оказывают влияния на изменение скорости детонации основного заряда ВВ. Влияние массы ПД на скорость детонации основного скважинного заряда происходит лишь в начале разгонной части на участке заряда ВВ длиной до 0,5 - 1 м, далее скорость детонации стабилизируется в стационарном режиме по всей длине заряда.

When conducting blasting in open pits, it is very important to choose boosters with a sufficient initial momentum to initiate blasthole charges. The influence of the boosters’ mass on the detonation velocity of the main explosive charges is what we have established. The charge mass of the initiator of the initial pulse of blasthole charges of emulsion explosives must be at least 500 g to avoid the occurrence of failed explosions of blasthole charges. The paper contains the main characteristics of boosters for charge initiation and shows the relationship between the detonation velocity of boosters and the detonation velocity of emulsion explosives. We have established that the composition and detonation characteristics of boosters have practically no effect on the change in the detonation velocity of the main explosive charge. The influence of the boosters mass on the detonation velocity of the main blasthole charge occurs only at the beginning of the accelerating part in the section of the explosive charge up to 0,5 - 1 m long, then the detonation velocity stabilizes in a stationary mode along the entire length of the charge.

Традиционные системы разработки пологих месторождений бедных комплексных руд характеризуются весьма низкими показателями извлечения запасов, а также повышенными затратами на подготовку и очистную выемку. Применение в данных условиях комбинированной системы разработки, основанной на сочетании этажно-камерной системы с сухой закладкой (или заполнением очистного пространства принудительно обрушенными налегающими породами), и системы этажного обрушения с торцевым выпуском руды позволяет достичь совокупного эффекта от комплексного снижения потерь и разубоживания руды, уменьшения эксплуатационных затрат на добычу руды, увеличения производственной мощности рудника, повышения безопасности ведения горных работ.

Traditional systems for the development of flat deposits of low-grade complex ores are characterized by very low rates of recovery of reserves, as well as by increased costs for preparation and stoping excavation. In this conditions, the use of a combined development system of the storey-chamber system with dry backfilling (or filling of worked out space through collapsing of overlying rocks) and the level caving system with buttend ore drawing allows to simultaneously achieve the results of a complex reduction of losses and of ore dilution, reduction of operating costs of ore extraction, increase of production capacity of the mine, and ensuring the safety of mining operations.

Postural disturbance are detected in about 80% of people after a stroke and significantly limit the patient's household and social activity, increase the risk of falls. Stabilometry is a highly informative method for studying the equilibrium function based on the analysis of the parameters of the center of pressure. The purpose of the study: clinical and stabilometric analysis of postural disorders in the complex rehabilitation of patients after a stroke. Materials and methods. The study involved 60 patients (40 men and 20 women, median age 61.0 [56.25; 65.75] years, median rehabilitation start time 30.0 [25.0; 40.75] days). All patients were divided into 2 groups: the first group consisted of 30 people with hemiataxy; the second group - 30 people with hemiparesis. All patients underwent complex rehabilitation and stabilotraining sessions. The dynamics of stabilometric parameters and clinical scales (NIHSS, Rivermead index, Rankin scale, Barthel scale) were assessed. Results. Both groups received statistically significant improvements in the area of the statokinesiogram, velocity of the center of pressure, energy index in both phases of the study, as well as in all clinical scales (p < 0.001). We did not reveal differences in the degree of changes in stabilometric parameters in patients with different stroke syndromes (hemiataxia or hemiparesis) before and after complex rehabilitation (p > 0.05). No correlation was found between stabilometric parameters and clinical scales. Conclusion. Stabilometry is a highly informative method for studying the balance function in patients after a stroke in complex rehabilitation, however, one should take into account the lack of correlation of its parameters with clinical scales.

Перспективы правового регулирования орфанных произведений в Российской Федерации
Authors: Рябов А.К.
Published: December 2024

Автор описывает существующие подходы к правовому регулированию таких произведений. Анализируются законопроекты, создававшиеся в Российской Федерации с 2015 по 2023 годы, предлагавшие различные модели регулирования орфанных произведений. Делается вывод о необходимости создания специального регулирования произведений с неизвестным автором или правообладателем на основе модели opt-in, способствующей наиболее широкому вовлечению таких произведений в гражданский оборот.

The problem of legal regulation of works whose author or copyright holder is unknown becomes increasingly acute every year as the number of such works grows. However, the existing legal instruments used to regulate orphan works in Russian legislation are not sufficiently effective, leading to the practical exclusion of such works from civil circulation. The author describes existing approaches to the legal regulation of such works. The draft laws created in the Russian Federation from 2015 to 2023, which proposed various models for regulating orphan works, are analyzed. It is concluded that it is necessary to create special regulation of works with an unknown author or copyright holder based on the opt-in model, which promotes the widest possible involvement of such works in civil circulation.

Published: December 2024

В статье рассматривается категория «общественный порядок», уяснение сущности которой необходимо с точки зрения применения различных мер административного воздействия, связанных с охраной общественного порядка. Важность таких категорий, как «общественный порядок», «общественное место» предопределятся их функциональностью в деле полицейской охраны и защиты прав граждан. Автор анализирует меры административно-процессуального принуждения, которые использует полиция для охраны общественного порядка, и обращает внимание на ряд правовых и организационных вопросов, соответствующих этой деятельности. Отмечается, что в категорию «общественное место» сегодня должны быть включены и места в цифровой реальности (социальные сети, сайты).

The article examines the category “public order”, an understanding of the essence of which is necessary from the point of view of the application of various administrative measures related to the protection of public order. The importance of such categories as “public order”, “public place” is determined by their functionality in the matter of police protection and protection of citizens’ rights. The author analyzes the measures of administrative procedural coercion that the police use to protect public order, and draws attention to a number of legal and organizational issues related to this activity. It is noted that the category “public places” today should also include places in digital reality (social networks, websites).
Административно-правовое регулирование участия Российской Федерации в экономической деятельности
Authors: Сморчкова Л.Н.
Published: December 2024

В сложившихся политико-экономических условиях частный бизнес стал зависим не только от законов рыночной экономики, но и от политических решений. Во многом только государство способно решать экономические вопросы, связанные с вложением огромных ресурсов в основные средства производства, внедрением высокотехнологичных решений, поддержанием мобилизационной экономики. Цель статьи — определить проблемы в правовом обеспечении участия Российской Федерации в экономической деятельности и предложить пути их решения. Для достижения поставленной цели были использованы общенаучные методы материалистической диалектики, а также частнонаучные и специально-юридические методы, достижения правовой науки. Автор приходит к выводу, что основная правовая проблема состоит в фактическом отсутствии четкого административно-правового регулирования отношений по управлению федеральной собственностью, последовательного закрепления властных полномочий в данной сфере и практически бесконтрольном со стороны государства хозяйствовании с его имуществом. Настоящая работа является логическим продолжением статьи «Российская Федерация как субъект экономической деятельности: переоценка в новых политико-правовых реалиях», опубликованной в первом номере журнала «Современное право» за 2024 год.

In the current political and economic conditions, private business has become dependent not only on the laws of a market economy, but also on political decisions. In many ways, only the state is capable of solving economic issues related to investing huge resources in fixed assets, introducing high-tech solutions, and maintaining a mobilization economy. The purpose of the article is to identify problems in the legal support of the participation of the Russian Federation in economic activities and propose ways to solve them. To achieve this goal, general scientific methods of materialist dialectics were used, as well as special scientific and special legal methods, and the achievements of legal science. The author comes to the conclusion that the main legal problem is the virtual absence of clear administrative and legal regulation of relations in the management of federal property, the consistent consolidation of power in this area and the practically uncontrolled management of its property by the state. This work is a logical continuation of the article “The Russian Federation as a subject of economic activity: reassessment in the new political and legal realities”, published in the first issue of the journal “Modern Law” for 2024.

A criminological analysis of crimes is given in criminal cases stored in the archives of the courts of the Russian Federation, initiated on the grounds of crimes provided for in Articles 222, 222.1, 243.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in relation to persons committing illegal excavations. In the course of the criminological analysis of the types of criminals, depending on the purpose of satisfying their antisocial property needs, the author identifies two personality types of “black diggers”. The proposed typology will allow us to more deeply study the characteristics of the type of criminal activity under consideration and more effectively carry out the prevention of such crimes.

Совершенствование системы управления персоналом на сегодняшний день входит в приоритет стратегических целей развития кадровой политики любых организаций. Современные концепции управления персоналом основаны на признании возрастающей значимости личности сотрудника, на изучении его мотиваций, умении правильно формировать их и корректировать в соответствии со стратегическими задачами, стоящими перед организацией. Особенно остро этот вопрос стоит перед учреждениями социальной сферы, для которых характерна слабая организация работы с персоналом, не отвечающая актуальным потребностям социальной сферы.

Improvement of the personnel management system today is a priority of the strategic goals of the development of personnel policy of any organizations. Modern concepts of personnel management are based on the recognition of the increasing importance of the employee's personality, on the study of his motivations, the ability to correctly form them and adjust them in accordance with the strategic tasks facing the organization. This issue is particularly acute for institutions of the social sphere, which are characterized by a weak organization of work with personnel that does not meet the actual needs of the social sphere.

Современная банковская система России на данном этапе развития испытывает воздействие многих факторов, как внешних, так и внутренних. Следовательно, нельзя недооценивать роль ЦБ РФ в регулировании деятельности учреждений банковской сферы в современных, нелегких условиях функционирования, а также в помощь в преодолении воздействия внешних и внутренних факторов на банковский сектор экономики России. Именно от взвешенной и тщательно продуманной денежно-кредитной политики зависит дальнейшее успешное функционирование банковской системы России.

The modern banking system of Russia at this stage of development is affected by many factors, both external and internal. Therefore, one should not underestimate the role of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation in regulating the activities of banking institutions in modern, difficult operating conditions, as well as in helping to overcome the impact of external and internal factors on the banking sector of the Russian economy. It is from the balanced and carefully thought out monetary policy that the further successful functioning of the banking system of Russia depends.
Bridging Oxide Thermodynamics and Site-Blocking: A Computational Study of ORR Activity on Platinum Nanoparticles
Authors: Demeyere Tom , Ellaby Tom , Sarwar Misbah , Thompsett David , Skylaris Chris-Kriton
Published: December 2024

The Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) is a key reaction in fuel cells and metal-air batteries involving multiple intermediates and parallel pathways. Unfortunately, the overpotential associated with the kinetic of the process is a significant barrier to the efficiency of these devices. Despite the substantial body of work dedicated to this problem, a unified picture that seamlessly integrates thermodynamic and other kinetic aspects of the ORR remains elusive. In this work, we perform grand-canonical minimization Monte Carlo simulations using the recent MACE-MP-0 forcefield on an experimentally reconstructed Pt nanoparticle. From the Monte Carlo simulations, we extract evenly spaced oxidized configurations to perform an in-depth study with varying oxygen content. Our results show that the thermodynamic of the system is highly dependent on the oxygen ratio. By using the computational hydrogen electrode scheme we are able to link various quantities to the potential and to predict oxidation state vs. potential. We computationally identify the place-exchange mechanism occurring at 1.06 V vs. SHE, close to the onset potential of the ORR. By using well-established scaling relations we are able to predict the rate determining step on the oxide-covered nanoparticle to be the initial reduction of O2 to OOH*. We explore the possibility of distinguishing between blocking and reactive sites by performing a deletion energy analysis. We find a fraction of oxide sites to be readily available for reduction, which decreases as the potential increases. Finally, we show the possibility of building a simplified kinetic model with parameters directly derived from our simulations. At all levels, our results are compared with the available literature and showed to be in reasonable agreement with both theoretical and experimental studies. Despite partial disagreement with DFT, the MACE-MP-0 forcefield is able to predict the general trends of the system, showing the potential of such foundation models in the field of computational electrochemistry without fine-tuning. Our work is a step towards the understanding of the various aspects causing the overpotential of the ORR through atomistic modelling.

Objective: The study explored perceptions on how digital health interventions could be used to improve management efficiencies and effectiveness of HIV/AIDS projects in Kenya.
 
Theoretical Framework: The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology was employed.
 
Method: A total of 32 healthcare service providers who were on duty (during the period of data collection January-February 2022) at comprehensive care centers providing HIV/AIDS care and treatment services in eight high volume public health facilities in Kisumu county, Kenya were purposively sampled and subjected to a key informant interview guide. The participants were healthcare service providers who had been at the health facility for at least one year and had experienced the use of any digital health intervention. The study explored views on knowledge about the digital health interventions and perceptions on the impact of the interventions.
 
Results and Discussion: Most users perceived the digital health interventions to have increased management efficiencies in terms of keeping appointments by clients, reduction in turnaround times of receiving laboratory results, increased accountability for drugs and improved reporting due to real time data on the digital health interventions. Overall, digital health interventions resulted in faster, evidence based and appropriate clinical management decisions.
 
Research Implications: Technology has a critical role in improving project management practices by enhancing efficiencies and effectiveness in processes and service delivery.
 
Originality/Value: This study contributes to the literature on digital health which is a new area of interest particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa and Kenya in particular.
"The Genteel Tradition in American Philosophy" as a Valedictory Indictment of the United States
Authors: Juan José Cruz Hernández
Published: December 2024

This article aims to point out some intellectual and cultural elements that constructed Santayana’s most famous lecture and phrase. Written in the aftermath of the events that transformed the United States in the turn of the century, “The Genteel Tradition in American Philosophy” is more than an elaborate literary critique. It contains Santayana’s objections to authors whose canonized aesthetics had provided ethical alibi for two defining features of the United States in those years: social injustice at home and a foreign policy based on the right of might. This helps us explain Santayana’s decision to leave America not just as the pose of a aesthetician; rather, it foresees the discontent that the American intelligentsia would widely express the following decade. Finally, some comment is offered on the limitations of “The Genteel Tradition” as a tract; our 80-year hindsight permits us assess the shortcomings of early twentieth-century liberal formulas to overcome the evils bred by nineteenth-century capitalism.

Published: December 2024

Este artículo presenta una posible aproximación al análisis y uso del marcador discursivo español 'bueno' en la conversación cotidiana. El análisis forma parte (y al mismo tiempo es resultado) de un proyecto en el que se comparan las funciones de 'bueno' con las de well en conversaciones en inglés. En este proyecto se están comparando marcadores del discurso ingleses y españoles con el fin de encontrar similitudes y diferencias entre su función y su uso en la conversación. En este trabajo no pretendemos llegar a conclusiones definitivas, ya que el corpus necesita ser ampliado y es necesario elaborar un marco para clasificar cada aparición de los diferentes marcadores de forma sistemática.
Durrell Writing about Writers Writing: Towards a Spatial Definition of "The Avignon Quintet"
Authors: Ramón Plo Alastrué
Published: December 2024

The aim of this paper is to analyze the reciprocal influence between Lawrence Durrell and the fictional writers he creates in The Avignon Quintet . In order to explore this blurring of boundaries between fiction and reality, I reflect on the confluence of two opposite forces at work in these novels: the Quintet both acknowledges its own status as fiction and gradually increases the feeling of proximity to a random, ineffable reality. Throughout this paper, I shall also try to interpret the shape of the quincunx and its three-dimensional development—the pyramid—as the narrative architecture where these two antagonistic ideas are condensed into a single process of creation.

Anonymous Deaths: A Reading of Derek Mahon's "A Refusal to Mourn" and Craig Raine's "In the Mortuary"
Authors: Delgado Violeta
Published: December 2024

The aim of this paper is getting an insight into contemporary British poetry through the work of two of its best known poets, Derek Mahon and Craig Raine, by focusing on their treatment of the theme of death. These poets try to approach their theme from a new perspective in order to establish a distance from the tradition that precedes them. Both of them resort to the defamiliairisation of their subject-matter through the recuperation and synthesis of elements coming from different past traditions. They share a common project but their poems are the result of two opposed ways of negotiating the theme of human extinction.
The Translation of Idiolects in The Catcher in the Rye: An Approach through Lexicalized Structures
Authors: López Rúa Paula
Published: December 2024

The aim of this paper is to support the idea that the integrity of personal dialects (i.e., idiolects) must be respected in translation if they are perceived to be consciously created. In the present case, a corpus of lexicalized structures extracted from Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye (1951) has been resorted to in order to demonstrate how their recurrent use contributes to the creation of several idiolects. The analysis of those structures in both the Spanish and the Galicim1 translations of the book shows that the translators have failed to recognise the existence of idiolects in the source language. The abuse of translation by omission and the profusion of synonymous translations for the same structure lead to the disintegration of idiolects and make them inoperative, to the deUiment of the reader of the target language.

The episode in A la recherche du temps perdu commonly called the "Sejour a Venise" is perhaps the most extraordinary version of what Paul de Man calls Proust' s "solar myth." It also has a complex textual history in the writing of the ever-unfinished "Recherche." At the end this episode, Mm-eel refuses to go to the train station with his mother and remains on the hotel terrace listening to a gondolier sing "O sole mio!" The song seems to stop the sun's movement and to turn Venice into a heap of stones surrounded by so much hydrogen and oxygen in the form of water. Only what Proust calls "habit" leads Marcel to see Venice as the great historical city that Ruskin described, that the Doges ruled, that Turner painted, and that Marcel (and Proust) so much admired. Only the spontaneous return of "inveterate habit," something that comes from "caverns darker than those from which flashes the comet which we can predict," that is, from a source wholly unknown and unknowable, puts Venice back together and gives Marcel the strength to break his paralysis of will and follow his mother to the train. Our sense of self and the solidity of its circumambient world, this episode implies, are sustained by a force that comes not from within the self but from beyond it, from something that is wholly other to that self, though special to that self alone.
Introduction: Modernism's Comings and Goings
Authors: Birkett Jennifer , Smith Stan
Published: December 2024

The Introduction gives an overview of the commitment to cosmopolitanism in the lives and writing of the major Anglophone modernists, and discusses the importance of the concept of translation and transition in their work. It considers the particular relationship of the American modernists to the European tradition; and it reviews briefly the different areas of the classical and contemporary European heritage nominated by the contributors to the volume.
Jean Rhys: The French Connection?
Authors: Milligan Jennifer E.
Published: December 2024

This essay examines Rhys's relationship with France as evinced in her autobiographical works and early fiction. It analyses the way in which Rhys, adopting a position of self-imposed artistic marginality and social isolation, refuses to endorse popular utopian visions of Paris as an all-embracing, alternative aesthetic homeland and a realm of erotic liberation. Paris instead becomes synonymous with maternal, not sexual, love. This offers a sense of resolution and closure for Rhys on a personal level (she connects metonymically with her own estranged mother); but her particular representation of the maternal realm also furthers her quest for a technically innovative form of writing. This is characterised by chronological disturbance, narratorial instability, fragmented interior monologue, and a subversive rewriting of other canonical texts: traits common in much modernist writing of the period. Rhys additionally employs narrative and syntactical structures mimicking the natural rhythms of the maternal body, and, ever the radical, draws on French literature for her revisionary writing, thus aligning herself tangentially with an already dissident French literary canon. Rhys's French connections enable her to explore women-centred themes within the context of modernism and still retain her unique nonconformist voice.
The European Radio Broadcasts of T.S. Eliot
Authors: Coyle Michael
Published: December 2024

Although T. S. Eliot is among the most-studied figures in literary history, the 80-90 radio broadcasts he did between 1929-1964 have yet to receive critical attention. It is less striking that Eliot should have been attracted to radio than it is that, after 1941, he increasingly directed his broadcasts to European and Asian audiences. After all, numerous other modernist writers and poets experimented with radio (though few others made Eliot' s sustained commitment to the medium). If Eliot's foreign broadcasts conform to the studied ecumenicity of his other talks before the microphone, in addressing German or Eastern European audience they did nevertheless test ecumenical limits. Today, at the end of the century, the idea of "Europe" has more currency than ever before, but with the end of the Cold War we have to strain to hear anyone insisting on the unity of European "culture". In this sense, Eliot' s broadcasts comprise a uniquely modernist moment: an attempt to use a new technology to recognize a dream in which the rest of the world was rapidly losing interest.
Some Reflexions on the Study of Idioms and Consequences for L2 Teaching
Authors: Marisa Díez Arroyo
Published: December 2024

This paper focuses on the importance of a particular manifestation of figurative language: the idiomatic phrase. Its purpose is to analyse fixed expressions, the difficulties they pose and the main preoccupations shown by theoreticians. At the same time, the study offers a comparison of idioms in L1 with the circumstances which surround L2 learning, together with an exploration of how the emerging differences affect L2 idiom teaching. The investigation has been conducted along the lines of an interdisciplinary methodology; thus, a conscious effort has been made to combine the linguistic and the psycholinguistic viewpoints, implemented with the analysis of Proficiency level coursebooks, in the hope that this helps us to gain a better understanding of the mature, processing and teachability/learnability of these phrases.
Prolegomena to the Development of an Inventory of Synsem Features for the Old English Verb
Authors: Javier E. Díaz Vera
Published: December 2024

Through the detailed analysis of the meaning definitions of different semantic sets of old English verbs and of their complementation patterns, I will propose a preliminary reconstruction of a basic set of synsem features, i.e. syntactic and semantic parameters which operate throughout the lexicon in the various areas of meaning. These features are divided into three basic types: obligatory, optional and contextual. Through the addition of a morphological component, T will propose some possible applications of Faber and Mairal’s (1988) semantic-syntactic model to the analysis of the Anglo-Saxon vocabulary.
Raving about Things that Won't Solve: Marylee Hadley in Written on the Wind
Authors: Luzón Vicky
Published: December 2024

The contemporary feminist vindication of classical Hollywood melodrama has attempted to identify the conflicting views on gender and the family that constituted the raw material for this genre. The aim of this paper is to identify these clashing discourses on femininity and female sexuality within the framework provided by Douglas Sirk's popular film Written on the Wind (1956). I will try to demonstrate how the workings of ideology, which usually culminate in the ideologically correct traditional "happy ending", are subverted through the imposition of an arbitrary and quite implausible resolution. From here, I shall attempt to read the ending of the film against the grain of received "ideological correctness" in order to vindicate the role of the marginal characters in the story, and that of Marylee Hadley in particular.
Effects of Garden-pathing in Martin Amis's novels Time's Arrow and Night Train
Authors: Oertel Daniel
Published: December 2024

Critics often describe the novels of British writer Martin Amis as prankish artefacts that neglect story and plot for a highly misleading set of postmodern pyrotechnics. In this article I attempt to explore a literary phenomenon that is often paraphrased as "teasing the reader", arguing that one of the chief glories of Amis's prose lies quite paradoxically, in the ambiguous narrative structures and in the ways readers are "led up a garden path" in the course of his fictional worlds. Drawing on a selection of recent criticism from Artificial Intelligence (Minsky), cognitive narratology (Jahn) and general reader reception theory, I will analyse Amis's novels Time's Arrow and Night Trains and propose that the narrative traps employed are highly functional. Rather than just Hanoi readers, they actually lead "somewhere", producing various aesthetical effects and ultimately turning the novels into what Roland Barthes has termed "writerly" texts.
Shadowing Femi(ni)cide, Madness and the Politics of Female Control in Louisa May Alcott's "A Whisper in the Dark"
Authors: Melodia Festa Beatrice
Published: December 2024

The term ‘femicide’ entered public discourse only in the late 1970s, when feminist critic Diana Russell used the term to bring attention to male violence and discrimination against women. This article intends to re-examine therepresentation of femicide through Louisa May Alcott’s short story “A Whisper in the Dark” (1865) in light of studies on femicide and female violence. Drawing from Russell’s definition of femicide, its theoretical approach and multipleredefinitions, the article proceeds by exploring Alcott’s depiction of femicide in the text. After a preliminary discussion, I critically examine Alcott’s short storyin light of studies on femicide by placing the text within American female Gothic fiction. Afterwards, I will demonstrate how femicide in the tale is based upon aninterplay of three main tropes: wrongful confinement, the threshold and madness, all of which are themes that Alcott develops with astonishing topicality and which underscores the importance of the tale as an example of female abuseand domestic violence, a phenomenon that has improved considerably all over the world in recent years. I conclude by showing how Alcott illustrates the politics of female control and offers an example of femicide long before the term was ever used.
Investigating The Development Chorus Education: Challenges and Potential Strategies in Enhancing Uniqueness

This study investigated the current situation of chorus instruction, its advancement in schools, the interrelationships between its components, and ways for overcoming obstacles and enhancing its distinctive features. The study is important because it clarifies the existing status of chorus training and suggests essential areas for development, promoting a more coherent and successful approach to chorus education within educational institutions. We employed a mixed-method research design (questionnaires and interviews) to collect data from a sample of 100 choral education teachers and 100 students in secondary schools by descriptive and Pearson correlation analysis. Additionally, we conducted interviews with important stakeholders and conducted field observations to assess choirs’ activities. The results indicated that musical instruction in choruses is overseen by highly qualified music instructors, many of whom hold undergraduate and master’s degrees, with expertise in vocal music, as well as piano and instrumental music. The primary emphasis of choral education is on comprehensive review courses, with teacher choirs being the most widely utilized. Nevertheless, the persistence of issues, such as the inconsistent caliber of chorus conductors and the necessity for enhanced instruction and individual musical literacy, underscores the significance of implementing approaches such as consistent training, master workshops led by experts, and partnerships with universities. The study emphasized constraints, such as self-reported biases, indicating that future research should ensure the inclusion of diverse respondents, monitor changes over time, investigate various teaching approaches, and the effects of technology on professional development on teachers’ and students’ outcomes.
