The Cycle of Night and Day In The Ball and the Cross by G. K. Chesterton
Authors: Szymczak-Kordulasińska Monika
Published: December 2022

Part of Chesterton’s imagery that he often employs in his writing is the motif of light and darkness, which in The Ball and the Cross takes the form of the cycle of night and day. This cycle dictates a specific rhythm, which rules over both the ongoing duel and other events. Thus, the evening and night time is rather reserved for considerable and profound insights, found in, for instance, the opening and closing scenes and in all the events that reflect or decide about the characters’ spiritual growth. The day time seems to contribute more to the development of the protagonists’ relationship with each other and the world around.

Published: December 2022

Today’s 3D printers allow the creation of very advanced structures from various materials, starting from simple plastics up to metal alloys. Since the printing time and amount of material used to create structures are considered very important in terms of cost and energy consumption, it is better to optimize structures for that particular application taking into account all the conditions. In the current work, U-Net convolutional neural network-based topology optimization method (TO) that allows to reduce the material usage and eventually reduces the cost of 3D printing is introduced. The results showed that the accuracy of the method is highly reliable and can be used for designing various 3D printable structures and it applies to any type of materials since properties of materials can be included in TO.

This work obtained a sorbent based on humic acids (HA) isolated from oxidized brown coals of the Maikuben deposit. The study of humic acids by IR spectroscopy showed the presence of various functional groups (OH-, COOH-) in the sorbent, which can enter into ion-exchange reactions with metals. Humic acids have been tested as a sorbent for neodymium. Neodymium sorption was carried out under static conditions from nitrate solutions. It was found that with a sorption time of 30 min and a solution pH is 1.0, the sorption efficiency of neodymium is 95.5%. A sorbent based on humic acids was used to separate neodymium from a solution obtained by dissolving electronic waste (neodymium magnet). SEM-analysis and mapping of the sorbent surface after neodymium sorption showed that neodymium was absent on the sorbent surface.

A new approach to the production of commercial products used in aromatherapy and household aromatizing agents based on induction heating of plant raw materials and the use of hydrophilic polymer hydrogels is proposed. It is shown that obtaining highly purified essential oils is neither technologically nor economically justified from the point of view of their use in aromatherapy. The proposed approach makes it possible to obtain products for aromatherapy with minimal processing of raw materials and low production costs. The main end product is a polymer hydrogel saturated with a liquid phase formed during induction heating of a mixture of a plant component with metal inclusions. Such a product, among other things, allows the implementation of electronic aromatherapy systems and household aromatizing agents, in which the generation of aroma oils is also provided by induction heating. In the operation of such systems, the basic property of thermosensitive hydrogels is used – a shift in the hydrophobic-hydrophilic balance with temperature variations, which makes it possible to exclude parasitic evaporation of volatile components. Specific technical solutions that implement this approach are proposed.
Grassroots Muslim women in religious conflict prevention in Tanzania: roles, contributions, and challenges
Authors: Japhet Naisiligaki
Published: December 2022

This paper analyzed how Muslim women at the grassroots level can prevent religious conflict in Tanzania by examining their roles, contributions, and challenges. This qualitative research used observation and in-depth interviews with the main respondents to address the three issues mentioned above. In contrast to their role and contributions to religious conflict prevention, the findings showed that Tanzanian Muslim women at the grassroots level faced numerous challenges. There are two major roles that grassroots Muslim women play in religious conflict prevention: raising awareness and providing religious education. Regarding their contributions, they supported and strengthened Islamic religiosity, empathy, and peace. Lastly, some of their challenges included a lack of resources and financial support, a lack of influence and participation, and a lack of expertise and skills in conflict prevention. The author recommends that other peacebuilding ventures can be studied, particularly by focusing on the contributions that have been played by upper and middle class Muslim women have played in reducing conflict within Muslim society.

Published: December 2022

Objectives: to investigate the hormonal and genetic determinants of the poor response to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in women of late reproductive age.Materials and methods. 130 patients from assisted reproductive technology programs were examined. The main group of 80 older reproductive aged patients (35 years and older) was divided into 2 subgroups according to the POSEIDON criteria. Subgroup 1 included 34 women with a predicted poor response to COS, subgroup 2 – 46 patients with a predicted normal response to COS. The comparison group consisted of 50 patients under the age of 35 with a predicted normal response to COS.The pituitary hormones (luteinizing, follicle-stimulating hormones, prolactin), steroid hormones (testosterone, estradiol, progesterone), cortisol, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) and inhibin B values was determined in blood serum by the ELISA. Blood was taken on the third day of the menstrual cycle. A molecular genetic study of FSHR gene polymorphism (Ala307Thr, Ser680Asn) was performed.Results. AMH decrease, estradiol increase and inhibin B decrease in potentially poor responders to COS may be an additional indication of reduced ovarian reserve. The level of follicle-stimulating hormone increases with age, but does not have high specificity as a marker of ovarian reserve. Elevated levels of cortisol emphasize its role in reproduction and correspond to increased stress value. The effectiveness of IVF if there were 4 or more mature oocytes obtained is associated with higher levels of AMH and inhibin B, and lower estradiol and cortisol values. The multifaceted dependence of the COC effectiveness in women of older reproductive age on the parameters of the hormonal profile, confirmed by correlation analysis, reflects the complexity of the reproductive function implementation with the use of auxiliary reproductive technologies in such patients. The combination of AA/SS genotypes for the Thr307Ala and Asn680Ser polymorphisms of the FSHR gene can be an additional marker of COC inefficiency.Conclusions. Determination of the hormones levels (inhibin B, estradiol and cortisol), the study of Thr307Ala and Asn680Ser polymorphisms of the FSHR gene can provide additional information for predicting the response to COS in women of older reproductive age.

Published: December 2022

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common malignancies and is a serious problem worldwide. The role of HPV in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma has been studied in several researches. This present review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the relation between human papillomavirus (HPV) and oral cancer.
Methods: Relevant studies were found using online international databases including Science direct, Web of science (ISI), PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google scholar, to determine relevant studies published between 2000 and Jan 2020. Suitable studies were selected and assessed by two independent researchers. The quality of all papers were determined by a checklist. Heterogeneity assay among the primary studies was evaluated by Cochran's Q test and I2 index. The statistical analyses were done using Stata SE, V.11 software. Trim and Fill method was applied to confirm the validity of the results.
Results: This meta-analysis consists of 8 primary studies on the incidence of HPV infection in Iranian patients with oral diseases. The odds ratio between HPV infection and risk of oral cancer was 4.00 (95%CI: 2.31, 6.93).
Conclusion: This meta-analysis showed associations between prevalence of HPV infection and oral cancer among Iranian patients. The chance of developing oral cancer among HPV positive patients was higher than that in HPV negative patients.

Authors: Zhang Change , Guo Wu , Wang Sheng , Di Yuzi , Wu Dengting
Published: December 2022

Background: Vitiligo is a common depigmentation disease characterized by progressive destruction and disappearance of epidermal melanocytes. Exosomes have been discovered to regulate the pigment status of melanocytes. We aimed to explore the role of exosomes from peripheral blood of vitiligo patients on melanogenesis.
Methods: Human melanocytes cell line PIG1 was treated with exosomes from the healthy volunteers or exosomes from the vitiligo patients referred to the Department of Dermatology, Children’s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University, China and transfected with miR-21-5p mimic or inhibitor. Exosome labeling assay was used to assess whether exosomes were absorbed by melanocytes. Melanin content and tyrosinase activity assays were performed to investigate melanogenesis in melanocytes. The levels of melanogenesis-related genes and proteins were detected by RT-qPCR and western blot assays. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to confirm the relationship between miR-21-5p and special AT-rich sequence binding protein-1 (SATB1).
Results: Exosomes from peripheral blood of vitiligo patients were transferred into melanocytes and suppressed melanin content, tyrosinase activity and melanogenesis-related genes and proteins levels. Besides, miR-21-5p was highly expressed in exosomes from peripheral blood of vitiligo patients. The results of the gain- and loss-of-function experiments demonstrated that miR-21-5p inhibited the melanogenesis of melanocytes. Furthermore, miR-21-5p inhibitor abolished the inhibitory role of exosomes from peripheral blood of vitiligo patients. Subsequently, miR-21-5p directly targeted SATB1 in melanocytes. Furthermore, overexpression of SATB1 reversed the inhibitory roles of miR-21-5p mimic on melanin content, tyrosinase activity, and melanogenesis-related protein expression.
Conclusion: Peripheral blood of vitiligo patients-derived exosomal miR-21-5p inhibited melanocytes melanogenesis via targeting SATB1.

Published: December 2022

Background: In 2015, in Csongrád County (Hungary), a general practitioner based colorectal screening model program was implemented by the financial support of the European Union. Our aim was to evaluate the indicators of screening program and to analyze the experiences and attitude of participants of colorectal screening pilot program.
Methods: The colon cancer screening pilot programme was carried out in 2015 involving an average-risk population aged 50-69 in Csongrád county, Hungary (invited 22 130 persons). The screening method was iFOBT, the attendance rate was 51.2%. Overall, 5580 patients out of the 10374 participants completed the self-compiled questionnaire concerning socio-demographic data, current screening programs, stool sampling problems, invitation letters, information sources and future willingness of participation.
Results: The response rate was 53%. 46.7% of the respondents had not heard about colorectal screening prior to the screening program. Participants with elementary education level mostly indicated physicians as primary information sources [OR: 2.72 (CI: 1.59-4.66)] than patients higher education level. 67.5% of patients decided alone about participation on screening. Among women, decisions supported by acquaintances were specific [OR: 2.05 (1.06-3.95]. 82.6% determined the iFOB test as an entirely accepted screening method. Medical advice is an important predictor of screening participation. If respondents were to receive an invitation after two years, 91.5% would be involved in the screening.
Conclusion: The respondents were satisfied with the screening program. Awareness raising of men, lower educated patients, those living in major cities, and recommendation of the family physician may increase the participation rate in the future.

Published: December 2022

Colorectal adenocarcinoma is the second deadliest cancer in the world. It starts in the large intestine and rectum. At Hasan Sadikin Hospital Bandung, the incidence of this disease was 224 cases in 2015, 187 cases in 2016, 212 cases in 2017. The mortality rate and prognosis of individuals suffering from Colorectal Adenocarcinoma were related to their clinicopathological profile. This paper is a cross-sectional study in which the Clinicopathological data comes from the medical records of patients at Hasan Sadikin Hospital between 2015 and 2017. Wald’s statistics was used to analyze the results of the data in the 95% confidence range/interval. There were 149 samples, and the number of men and women were similar. The mean age was 57. The study discovered that the proportion of carcinomas in the left colon (71.23%, 95% CI 63.31- 78.04%) were much higher than in the right colon (28.77%, 95%CI 21.95- 36.69). The anatomical pathological features of NOS dominated the sample (95.3%, 95% CI 90.42- 97.76%) far more than non-NOS/mucinous. The proportion of grading well differentiation was slightly higher in the moderate-poor differentiation group. T3, N0, and Mx were the most common staging in this study. Lymphovascular invasion was the most common invasion (55.7%, 95% CI 47.58- 63.53%). The results are in line with a Chinese study that stated that the Adenocarcinoma NOS variant is the most common variant and has a better prognosis. However, the location of the tumors in Indonesia s were predominantly on the left colon, while tumors found in the Chinese were predominantly on the right colon. The primary staging of patients in this study were T3, while in the Chinese study, it was primarily T4. Lymphovascular invasions were more common in patients in this study compared to that in China. This shows that there are differences in pathogenesis, molecular genetics and severity.

Published: December 2022

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes exhibit specific behavior when choosing their nest. This study was conducted on April 2021 and aimed to assess the correlation between the oviposition habit of female Aedes sp. and the features of a house in 34 adjacent houses in the Tamansari area. Ovitraps were placed indoors and outdoors at each house. The number of mosquitoes that laid eggs were estimated by dividing the number of eggs found in the ovitrap by the average number of eggs produced by female mosquitoes. Data about the features of the houses were obtained by observing the houses and interviewing the house owners. Results showed that 79.41% of the houses had the Aedes sp.’s egg in an ovitrap. There was a correlation between the number of indoor oviposition mosquitoes and the number of occupants (p=0.04; r=0.35). There was also a correlation between the number of outdoor oviposition mosquitoes and the ratio of the house’s area (m2) per number of occupants (p=0.03; r=0.36). We conclude that mosquitoes prefer to nest inside a house with a lot of occupants and prefer to nest outside a house that is spacious and has few residents.

Dayeuhkolot Village, in the Sagalaherang Sub-district, Subang District, West Java Province, is striving to become an ecotourism area. One of the products that was intended to be preserved was palm sugar. However, palm trees (Arenga Pinnata) are no longer available in the village. Apart from having economic value, palm trees are important as they are a buffer for the soil since their roots can prevent landslides, which frequently occur at the village during the rainy season. The training program that we implemented to overcome these problems wass the preservation and planting of palm trees. In addition to the training, we also provided 150 palm seeds. To determine the success of tree planting, the team measured the height of the palm trees every month. The results showed that the average growth is 10%.

The quality of sleep changes with age and a reduction in sleep duration is observed in the elderly. Mizaj (temperament) is a fundamental theory in traditional Persian medicine. It is defined as all sides of personality describing a person’s morphological, psychological, and physiological situations. Although the evidence showed that temperament and sleep quality are related, no research has evaluated this issue statistically so far. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the correlation between sleep quality and temperament. This cross-sectional study included 1,359 elderly people (aged 60) in Tabriz, Iran in 2019. An interviewer accomplished the Tabriz Older People Survey (TOPS), Temperament and Sleep Quality Test, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). A p value less than 0.05 was considered as significant. Our findings indicated that there was a significant relationship between global PSQI and wet temperament (p value = 0.036). In addition, hot-cold temperament was statistically related to demographical items like gender, marital status, and occupational status (p value ≤ 0.05). A similar statistically significant relationship was also seen for wet-dry temperament (p value ≤ 0.05). Moreover, the global PSQI score in female and illiterates subjects and those who lived in detached houses was high, meaning that the sleep quality was poor in these groups. According to our findings, Mizaj affects the quality of sleep in older adults. Also, living conditions of the elderly, such as gender, type of residence, level of education, and job, affect the Mizaj of the elderly people.

The purpose of this work was to develop ethnopharmacological and biological studies of plants used in traditional medicine for the treatment of diarrheal diseases. This study results in scientific data that validates the uses of these plants in traditional medicine. Firstly, ethnopharmacological surveys were conducted with a few traditional healers from the provinces of Estuaire, Haut Ogooué and Woleu-Ntem in Gabon. Next, ethnobotanical data such as percentage of families, species, routes of administration, methods of preparation, parts used and number of plant names were analyzed and summarized. Finally, the antibacterial activities of some plants have been evaluated by diffusion and microdilution methods. Thirty-four (34) traditional healers were interviewed. A total of 90 plant species were identified during this study. They belong to 44 families, the most represented were Leguminoseae (13.33%), Apocynaceae (7.78%), Annonaceae (5.55%), Euphorbiaceae (4.44%) and Anacardiaceae (4.44%). Trees were used more (44.44%) than shrubs (32.22%), herbaceous plants (16.67%) and lianas (6.67%). The drug administration was mainly oral (84.62%) and by the anal route. Decoction and maceration were the two most used methods of preparation. Among identified plants, twenty-seven (27) plant extracts were subjected to microbiological analyzes. Plant extracts tested were active on Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Cola nitida extracts gave the best antibacterial activity against Enterococcus faecalis 103907 CIP. This study identified 90 antidiarrheal plant species and clearly shows the antimicrobial potential of several medicinal species.
A Questionnaire-Based Study on Medicinal Plant Use in Patients with a Chronic Disease Diagnosis
Authors: Gürdal Bahar , Yesin Ebru
Published: December 2022

Chronic diseases are the most common non-communicable diseases worldwide. Today, with the increase in the elderly population, the burden of the disease is gradually increasing, and alternative treatment methods for these diseases are gaining importance. Potential adverse reactions, contraindications, and interactions with prescription drugs and herbals are important to evaluate. Therefore, the use of plants by chronic patients should be under supervision of health professionals. In this study, we aimed to obtain comprehensive data by questioning the plants used by patients using drugs for chronic disease, their usage patterns, and changes seen as a result of plant use. For this purpose, 60 people over the age of 18 (47% female, 53% male) participated in the survey study, and 53.3% of the patients stated that they used plants in the treatment. Twenty-one plants have been identified. Linden and mint-lemon mixture are the most commonly used plants, accounting for 62% and 15% of the total, respectively. The most commonly used preparation method is decoction (60%). 62.5% of the users obtain the plants from herbalists' stores; 59.37% of the patients learned the use of plants through advice (friend, neighbor, relative); 96.87% of the patients stated that they benefited from the use of plants. According to these results, the patients need to be informed about the use of plants as a complementary treatment. Thus, further efforts should be made to raise awareness of the use of herbal medicine and possibility of herb-drug interactions among physicians and other health professionals.
OLBIAN DOLPHIN PROTO-COINS: STURGEONS, SHARKS OR DOLPHINS?
Authors: Mezhzherin S. V.
Published: December 2022

Introduction. Olbian dolphin proto-coins is one of the most common and simultaneously unique serial metalworks of the early antiquity period. The question of biological prototypes, which, according to different researchers, could be either fish or dolphins, remains debatable. The absence of species affiliation analysis of the dolphin-like depictions does not allow to give a clear answer to this question.
Objective. Determination of zoological prototypes of dolphin protocoins by comparative anatomical analysis.
Results. Among the 36 anatomical feautures that can be identified on the coins, 25 are inherent in fish, in particular 21 are specific for sturgeons and 19 for sharks, and only 9 clearly belong to dolphins. The presence and distinctiveness of the traits creates a variety of types of proto-coins, and the combination of feautures from fish and dolphins causes the depictions to look whimsical. Archaic and primitive proto-currency herewith have a fish prototype. Diagnostic features of fish on the coins: big eyes on the sides of the head, operculum, lateral line, two dorsal fins, pressed to the body pectoral fin, truncated caudal fin. Some feautures (hypertrophied elongated snout, dorsal fin being closer to caudal fin, scutes on the body, heterocercal caudal fin) correspond to sturgeons, others (gill slits, location and shape of dorsal and pectoral fins, heterocercal caudal fin) to sharks. Bulging forehead should be considered as direct proof of a dolphin prototype for the coins, while other traits are either overlaped by fish feautures, or their interpretation is subjective.
Conclusions. 1. The multiplicity of types and forms of dolphin-like coins, which combines traits of dolphins and different species of fish, indicates an absence of a single prototype. 2. The majority of the traits on anepigraphic coins is native to fish. The prototypes are sturgeons and possibly sharks. 3. By combinations of features it is possible to distinguish sturgeon- and shark-type proto-coins. 4. Some creations have bizarre depictions. 5. Heavyweight dolphins - whimsical representations with features of sharks as well as possibly other fish and dolphins. 6. Epigraphical dolphins with an «АРІХО» inscription bear signs of fish, whilst smaller ones with «ΘΥ» are rather bizarre depictions. 7. Predominance of fish traits on archaic and primitive items proves the primacy of the image of the fish.
ROLE OF THE ANTIOXIDANT IN FUNCTIONING OF THE AGING MECHANISMS ON THE EXAMPLE OF BARLEY
Authors: Alieksieieva T. G , Toptikov V. A. , Sechniak O. L.
Published: December 2022

Introduction. Despite close attention to the process of seed aging, there is still no unambiguous answer to questions about the mechanisms of aging. The solution of these issues is due to both economic needs and the need to store plant genetic resources.
Aim. The aim was to study the effect of long-term storage of seeds of different barley varieties, previously differentiated by tolerance to seed aging, on the state of the antioxidant system enzymes.
Methods. The studies were carried out on three varieties of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Rosava, Selena Star and Trudivnik which had been stored under non-specialized laboratory conditions in paper envelopes for 8 years. The seed viability was assessed by germination energy and germinating ability according to the state standards. The direct test was supplemented with a cytogenetic study: an anatelophase test. The condition of the antioxidant system was characterized by an electrophoretic method for studying nonspecific peroxidase and superoxide dismutase in germinated shoots. The number of multiple forms of enzymes, their relative electrophoretic mobility and specific gravity (share) in percent in the total spectrum were determined. Enzymatic activity was assessed by the area of the peaks of the corresponding multiple forms on the densitograms.
Results. In terms of tolerance to long-term storage in direct and cytogenetic tests, the varieties were arranged as follows: Trudivnik > Rosava > Selena Star. It has been shown that the viability of seeds after storage is closely related to the activity of peroxidase and superoxide dismutase: more tolerant varieties are characterized by the stability of the total activity of peroxidase and superoxide dismutase.
Conclusion. The specific activity of the medium-mobile peroxidase fraction and low- and medium-mobile SOD fractions plays a leading role in determining the viability of seeds during long-term storage.

Published: December 2022

The study explores the influence of gender discrimination on the agricultural economic efficiency gap between women and men farmers in Nigeria's Kano State, as part of the USAID MARKETS II initiative. A structured questionnaire supported by an interview schedule was utilized to extract cross-sectional data from 189 participants selected by a multi-stage sample technique using a simple cost-route strategy. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were applied to the acquired data. Gender disparity has both an effect and an impact on the farm economic efficiency of women farmers, putting them at a disadvantage compared to their male counterparts, according to scientific research. Besides, the extension gap which affected the farm economic efficiency of the women farmers compared to the men is due to gender stereotype. Further, in isolating the impact of gender differential, it was observed that gaps of technical and cost efficiencies between the two genders owe majorly to gender discrimination. In addition, both gender discrimination and the endowment factor had an equal contribution to the yield gap between the two groups. However, the profit efficiency gap between the genders is due majorly to endowment effect. In general, it can be concluded that gender discrimination, i.e. gender inequality and gender stereotype, has slowed the active engagement of women beneficiaries in the program, hence impeding the continuation of their farm businesses. As a result, in order for the program to be sustainable, it should include a gender budget in its strategy, allowing women to break the curse of gender inequality, which has limited access to and control over productive resources.

Published: December 2022

O estudo trata sobre o direito à alimentação no contexto das dimensões sociais da sustentabilidade. Analisa a fome e a insegurança alimentar como déficits do Estado de Justiça. Expõe algumas posições teóricas sobre a produção e o consumo de alimentos transgênicos e orgânicos. Discute as diversas dimensões do tema a partir das categorias sustentabilidade e sociedade de risco. Aborda, em seguida, nesse contexto, a alimentação adequada na Reserva Extrativista Marinha de Cururupu. Por fim, discute os reflexos da comoditização do alimento na política de segurança alimentar como resultado do avanço do processo de acumulação capitalista e da construção de políticas ultraliberais, com recorte para a crise de insegurança alimentar vivenciada nos últimos anos, que se aprofundou com a pandemia da Covid-19.

O artigo analisa processos de instalação e de expansão de termelétricas no Maranhão e os efeitos sobre comunidades tradicionais. Enfatizam os casos da UTE Porto do Itaqui e da Geramar III, em São Luís, e as UTEs de Complexo Parnaíba, em Santo Antônio dos Lopes. Questões importantes ganham centralidade: a) apresentam-se muitas denúncias acerca da fragilidade dos processos de licenciamento que envolvem a instalação e o funcionamento dos empreendimentos e dos sistemas de controle da emissão de poluentes; b) a instalação destes empreendimentos tem atingido povos e comunidades tradicionais que têm seus modos de vida ameaçados e submetidos a situações de insegurança territorial, ambiental e alimentar. As discussões resultam de trabalhos executados pelo Grupo de Estudos Desenvolvimento, Modernidade e Meio Ambiente, que envolveram análise documental, entrevistas e revisão bibliográfica
A LIQUIDEZ DOS RELACIONAMENTO NA PÓS-MODERNIDADE: o uso da ferramenta Tinder na 'Região das Hortênsias'
Authors: Koch Rodrigo , Barros Lucas Brito de , Souza Solange Carvalho de
Published: December 2022

Este artigo se propõe a discutir as relações afetivas e interpessoais na contemporaneidade a partir do conceito de Modernidade Líquida de Zygmunt Bauman. Na internet, as pessoas criam perfis em plataformas de paquera e, muitas vezes, se tornam meras representações numéricas em busca de um bem-estar subjetivo. As informações pessoais e o conteúdo compartilhado tendem a ser moeda de troca e o produto a ser comercializado são sentimentos e desejos, ou seja, a própria vida dos sujeitos ali inseridos. Mas o que isso tem a ver com as relações pós-modernas? Em curto espaço de tempo, passamos de seres humanos para números e objetos. Neste sentido, com embasamento teórico, buscou-se identificar como as pessoas se vendem na imersão do universo digital. Para tanto, foi disponibilizado um formulário on-line com perguntas semiestruturadas (Google Forms), o qual contou com a participação de vinte (20) usuários e ex usuários do Tinder – um dos aplicativos de relacionamento mais usados do mundo.
“É NOS MEUS SONHOS QUE ESTÁS A PISAR”: (Re)Pensando Caminhos para um País Livre de Trabalho Infantil
Authors: Silva Caio Henrique Faustino da , Ferreira Otávio Bruno da Silva , Sá Emerson Victor Hugo Costa de
Published: December 2022

O trabalho infantil decorre da estruturação desigual da realidade brasileira, constituindo fenômeno de origem multifatorial, que, a despeito da proibição legal, permanece atual. Este estudo procura responder: como contribuir para retirar o véu da invisibilidade que encobre o trabalho infantil realizado nas ruas, seja no comércio ambulante ou na mendicância, realizado diretamente ou em proveito de terceiros? Para tanto, define-se o trabalho infantil e a idade mínima para o trabalho, discute-se as suas causas de origem e permanência, revisitam-se os discursos que sustentam a (i)lógica do labor precoce e, por fim, reflete-se sobre os caminhos para o devido enfrentamento. A partir de modo crítico e propositivo, esta pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, identifica a sutileza do trabalho infantil e ressalta a importância de uma revisão quanto à atuação ativa do Estado e da sociedade no seu enfrentamento, em decorrência da violação ao desenvolvimento integral da criança e do adolescente.
A incoerência dos limites definidores do Direito à Vida na legislação brasileira e a necessidade de um novo critério
Authors: Lopes Guilherme Barcelos Machado
Published: December 2022

O Direito brasileiro define os limites do direito à vida de modo fragmentário, em normas que atendem a fins e a influências conjunturais bastante distintas. Isso coloca a dificuldade de se identificar uma racionalidade que pudesse justificar de maneira consistente e coerente essas normas. O Supremo Tribunal Federal, ao tentar uma solução conciliatória que preservasse todas as normas aparentemente conflitantes, recorreu à noção ambígua de “pessoa em potencial”, a qual, conquanto pareça funcionar superficialmente, na realidade não oferece um critério passível de generalização consequente. Em razão disso, o objetivo do presente trabalho é propor um critério alternativo que recupere a consistência e a coerência do ordenamento jurídico brasileiro no que tange à proteção do direito à vida, preservando, na máxima medida possível, as normas jurídicas pertinentes ao tema. Defende-se que um critério cognitivo satisfaz ambas as condições.
O direito à literatura como dignidade humana e a restrição da liberdade de expressão em Fahrenheit 451
Authors: Costa Laiana Gonçalves , Taporosky Filho Paulo Silas
Published: December 2022

O presente artigo tem o objetivo de demonstrar, por meio da obra “Fahrenheit 451”, a importância do acesso a literatura para a sociedade, seja para lazer ou formação de senso crítico, bem como os riscos da sua ausência na construção de uma democracia. Ademais, pretende-se indicar como a literatura pode ser retirada do dia a dia e substituída por outras ocupações, visando a alienação e consequentemente a falta de fiscalização dos Governos por parte de seus governados, construindo uma massa instruída pelo básico necessário para que os benefícios de grandes tiranos não cessem. Outrossim, o presente artigo pretende também alertar sobre os limites de intervenções estatais no que tange ao direito de acesso à cultura. Para isso, adotou-se a metodologia dedutiva de pesquisa, com base em estudos bibliográficos com abordagem qualitativa a fim de analisar como a falta do acesso à literatura, ou cultura em geral, afeta a construção de uma sociedade, bem como do próprio indivíduo inserido nessa sociedade. Ademais, trata-se de pesquisa descritiva-exploratória, visando análise da temática a qual não se pode obter exatidão nos resultados do estudo, portanto, sem pretensão de respostas conclusivas, apenas para fins de reflexão.
A TRAVESSIA DA ANGÚSTIA: pontes entre Sartre e Lacan
Authors: Vieira Junior Cezar Augusto , Dutra Rossatto Noeli
Published: December 2022

Com este artigo, temos como objetivo possibilitar a abertura para o diálogo entre Sartre e Lacan a partir do conceito de angústia, tendo como porta de entrada algumas das elaborações do seminário 10. Também buscamos delinear a compreensão da angústia na perspectiva sartriana, além de demarcar diferenças entre as concepções dos autores quanto a esse conceito. Para realizar essa travessia, introduzimos a discussão retomando algumas proposições freudianas sobre a angústia; em seguida, exploramos o interesse de Sartre pela psicanálise e a importância de suas tentativas de integração desse campo do conhecimento ao seu existencialismo. Então, extraímos da obra sartriana o delineamento de uma teoria da angústia para, enfim, adentrarmos a transposição entre os autores, colocando em diálogo conceituações do existencialista e do psicanalista franceses.
EXERCÍCIOS E ADMIRAÇÃO: Sloterdijk entre Nietzsche e Cioran
Authors: Lima Márcio José Silveira
Published: December 2022

A partir do livro Tens de mudar de vida, de Peter Sloterdijk, o artigo pretende analisar as interpretações que nessa obra são feitas de Nietzsche e Cioran. A relação conceitual entre os termos imunidade, antropotécnica e exercícios representam um diálogo com a genealogia nietzschiana e mesmo uma apropriação dela, que servirá como fio condutor para investigar um conjunto amplo de técnicas de exercícios não ascéticos desde o final do Século XIX, cenário em que emergem as práticas não espiritualistas e niilistas do filósofo romeno. Dessa forma, busca-se não apenas entender as leituras de Sloterdijk sobre os dois filósofos seus precursores, pelos quais ele demonstra uma profunda admiração, mostrando as virtudes dessas interpretações, sem abrir mão, contudo, de ouvir cada voz em sua própria enunciação.
A MEDITAÇÃO HEIDEGGERIANA SOBRE A ORIGEM DA FILOSOFIA: Quando o pensamento se faz memória
Authors: Silva Leonardo Victor De Souza Santos , Ribeiro Caroline Vasconcelos
Published: December 2022

O presente artigo ancora-se no pensamento do filósofo Martin Heidegger para examinar em que medida sua proposta de retorno à origem da Filosofia implica na instituição de um pensamento que se faz memória, de um pensamento rememorante (An-denken). Defende-se que o pensamento que pleiteia um passo de volta (Schritt zurück) em relação à origem da Filosofia visa, neste movimento retrospectivo, não desenterrar um passado morto, mas auscultar o que resta impensado neste alvorecer. Neste sentido, este pensamento (Denken) tem que fazer-se memória, tem que recordar os envios do ser desde a aurora da Filosofia. Argumenta-se que este pensar que se faz memória não é tomado no sentido de uma faculdade psicológica de conservar o passado na representação, mas como um exercício de correspondência aos modos de destinação do ser.
