Social Cohesion and Cultural Diversity in Contemporary Britain: Impossible Mission!
Authors: Zriba Hassen
Published: May 2020

In contemporary multicultural Britain, the concept of social cohesion has been a pressing priority for not only politicians and sociologists but also for the various British ethnic minorities. Race riots like those of 2001 in Northern Britain and the events of 7/7 in London (2005) put into question the allegiances of different British ethnic populations. They equally shed light on the real or perceived lack of social and cultural communication between the established British host population and the British ethnic and immigrant communities. Hence, social cohesion came to the fore as the new jargon of governance in contemporary Britain.This article analyzes on the concept of social cohesion and its applicability within an officially declared multicultural community like that of Great Britain. The concept will be reviewed, defined and approached from different liberal political perspectives (Robert Dahl’s pluralist approach and Arend Lijphart’s consociationalism to the more recent Will Kymlicka’s group-differentiated citizenship) while paying special attention to the British context. Bhikhu Parekh’s conception of the different theoretical approaches to the issue of social cohesion that are pertinent to liberal capitalist societies in general and the British context, in particular, is investigated. The aim of this study is to highlight the complexity of the normative accounts of the political scientists regarding the challenges that face multicultural Britain in coming to terms with its endeavour of creating “unity within diversity”.  The 2002 White Paper and security speech of David Cameron (2011) political discourses are analyzed and evaluated to decipher how they understood national identity in relation to cultural diversity and social cohesion.   DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3376484
Análisis lingüístico-semiótico. Identidad de marca. Valorización utópica
Authors: Pellicer García Lidia
Published: May 2020

Desde la lingüística los nombres propios no tienen significado aduciéndose que lo peculiar es su ausencia de rasgos sémicos preexistentes, sin valor conceptual. El objetivo de este trabajo es demostrar que en publicidad el nombre propio es una marca con significado, un signo. Para ello, nuestra metodología consistirá en el análisis de dos spots publicitarios de la marca Movistar que nos llevará a la conclusión de que la marca publicitaria es un signo portador de significado identitario.
Vänskap för pengar? Barns syn på konsumtion, i tre skilda bostadsområden
Authors: Lundby Erika
Published: May 2020

Konsumtion utgör ett betydande inslag i barns vardagsliv. Samtidigt präglas Sverige av en ekonomisk och rumslig klyfta, vilket medför att det finns avsevärda skillnader i barns möjligheter att konsumera. Den här artikeln undersöker därför vilka föreställningar barn, i skilda uppväxtmiljöer, har kring vikten av konsumtion i deras gemenskaper med jämnåriga. Resultatet bygger på gruppintervjuer med 49 nioåriga barn, från tre olika skolor i en medelstor svensk stad, vilken präglas av en stark socioekonomisk segregering. Två huvudsakliga resultat kan återfinnas i empirin. Dels tycks det finnas en övergripande syn på konsumtion och pengar som delades av de flesta barn från samtliga tre skolor. Men samtidigt finns också indikationer på vissa skillnader mellan de tre grupperna.

Det farlige sukkeret, en trussel mot den gode barndommen? En studie av hvordan vitenskapelige og moralske diskurser former voksenidentiteter
Authors: Heggli Gry
Published: May 2020

Barn og foreldre står i dag overfor en ny utfordring. Søtsaker er på den ene siden mer tilgjengelig enn noen gang, på den andre siden er praten om sukkeret som et farlig næringsmiddel blitt påtrengende. Barns kosthold står i sentrum for bekymringen, en bekymring som beskrives i sterke ordelag: sukkeret truer fysisk og psykisk helse, sosial kompetanse og kognitiv utvikling. Denne artikkelen utforsker måter å snakke om forholdet mellom barnet og det søte på, nærmere bestemt ytringer hentet fra norsk medieoffentlighet og foreldreforum på Internett. Analysen viser at artikuleringer av hva som av sunt og usunt, hva som skal til for å skape en god barndom og riktig barneomsorg skaper til sammen et kraftfullt diskursivt felt som tilbyr noen voksne muligheten for å fremstille seg som opplyste voksne og gode foreldre på bekostning av andre.
English abstract
Today both children and their parents are facing a new challenge. On the one hand sweets are more available than ever before, on the other hand the talk about sugar as a dangerous nutrient is loud. Children’s diet is at the centre of attention: sugar is threatening physiological and mental health, social competence and cognitive development. This article explores ways of talking about the relationship between the child and the sweet, through an analysis of texts from the Norwegian mass media and from online discussion forums for parents on the Internet. The analysis shows that articulations of what is healthy and unhealthy, what is considered a happy childhood and ideas about proper childcare merge and create a powerful discourse that offers some adults a possibility to position themselves as knowledgeable and well-functioning parents at the expense of others.
Kön, sexualitet och klass i bilderboken. Exemplet Lill-Zlatan och morbror raring
Authors: Odenbring Ylva
Published: May 2020

De senaste två decennierna har barnböcker med karaktärer som bryter mot gängse normer blivit allt vanligare inom svensk barnlitteratur. Barns vardag porträtteras på ett allt mer mångfacetterat sätt. Mot bakgrund av detta är fokus i föreliggande artikel att studera hur intersektionella aspekter av kön, sexualitet och klass porträtteras och konstrueras i Pija Lindenbaums bilderbok Lill-Zlatan och morbror raring. I analyserna framträder fyra dominerande teman: pojkflickan, respektabel homosexualitet, marginaliserad maskulinitet samt m askulint sportideal. Trots Lindenbaums progressiva perspektiv där författarens utgångspunkt säkert varit att skapa en bättre morgondag och goda förbilder för barn, visar analyserna att författaren porträtterar huvudpersonerna utifrån normativa föreställningar om kön, sexualitet och klass.
English abstract
In Sweden the numbers of picture books that portray a more multifaceted childhood and challenging traditional gender norms have increased the last two decades. Given this the present article takes its point of departure in a critical analysis of how intersectional aspects of gender, sexuality and class are portrayed and constructed in Pija Lindenbaum’s picture book Mini Mia and her Darling Uncle. In the analysis four main themes have emerged: the tomboy, respectable homosexuality, marginalized masculinity and masculine sport ideal. Despite Lindenbaum’s radical approach and also possible intention to create a better tomorrow and role models for children, the analysis shows that the author repeatedly portray the protagonists in normative understandings of gender, sexuality and class.
Sosialiseringsomgrepet sett i lys av relasjonen individ/kjønn-kultur: Synspunkt på historia og stillinga til omgrepet i dag
Authors: Grindheim Liv Torunn
Published: May 2020

Det overordna tema for denne presentasjonen blir kjønns-sosialisering. Det er eit tema som er aktualisert gjennom forsking som viser at vi forsatt har langt frå likeverd mellom kjønna i norske barnehagar (Kunnskapsdepartementet 2010; Østrem m.fl. 2009). Det blir vist til gjennomgåande kjønnsspesifikke forventningar til jenter og gutar. Samfunnet vårt ber preg av klare kjønnsforskjellar. Tradisjonelle delingar i gute- og jentegrupper, jente- og gutefargar, stille jenter og bråkete gutar, jente- og guteleiketøy lever i beste velgåande. Dette emne vil eg ta føre meg ved fyrst å gå nærare inn i forståing av sosialisering, med særskilt vekt på kjønnssosialisering, i relasjon til barnehagen som utdanningskultur. Hovudvekta vert synspunkt/perspektivering på historia og omgrepet si stilling i dag, og vil dreie seg om tre tema. Det fyrste eg tek føre meg er (kjønns)sosialiseringsomgrepet og syn på barn, så fylgjer (kjønns)sosialiseringsomgrepet og tildekking av hegemoniske kjønnsdiskursar og til slutt (kjønns)sosialiseringsomgrepet og relasjon mellom aktør, struktur og endring. Allereie no kan eg avsløre at eg ser sosialisering som ikkje dekkande for relasjonen mellom individ/kjønn og kultur, men som eitt av tre ombegrep: sosialisering, kvalifisering og subjektivering. Desse tre omgrepa kan kanskje bidra til å synleggjere barn som kjønnsaktørar og relasjonar mellom aktør, struktur og endring.
Assimilering eller mångkulturell inkorporering? Nyanlända elever i den svenska och kanadensiska skolan
Authors: Axelsson Thom
Published: May 2020

Artikeln tar sin utgångpunkt i en jämförelse mellan svensk och kanadensisk skolpolitik och hur respektive land arbetar med frågor kring integration och mångfald. Utifrån begreppen assimilation, sammanbindning och mångkulturell inkorporering studeras skolans mottagande av nyanlända elever. Med exempel från Malmö, Toronto och London (Ontario), diskuteras vad som sker i det första mötet med skolan och var de nyanlända eleverna placeras. Vidare diskuteras hur modersmålslärarnas arbetsuppgifter i den svenska skolan skiljer sig från de arbetsuppgifter som de kanadensiska ”settlement workers” har och vilken roll som civilsamhället eventuellt kan ha för att bidra till en ökad integration.
English abstract
This article takes as its point of departure a comparison between Swedish and Canadian educational policy and between how the two countries deal with issues of integration and diversity. Focus of the study is the reception of new arrivals in schools, based on the concepts of assimilation, hyphenation and multicultural incorporation. Using examples from Malmö, Sweden and Toronto and London (Ontario), the article asks questions such as: where are the new arrivals being placed and what happens in the initial meeting with the schools? Further lines of inquiry concern the differences between work tasks of the Swedish ”modersmålslärarna” and the Canadian settlement workers as well as what role civil society plays in the work towards increased integration.
Barnemusikk som et transdisiplinært emne: Om selvforståelse, musikkbegrep og affordanse som overskridende forskningsverktøy
Authors: Vestad Ingeborg Lunde
Published: May 2020

I denne artikkelen diskuteres barnemusikk som emne for transdisiplinær forskning. Med utgangspunkt i et forskningsprosjekt som dreier seg om 3 til 6 år gamle barns egen bruk av fonogrammer (cd-plater, mp3-filer osv.) i hverdagssammenhenger, retter artikkelen fokus mot hvordan emnet barnemusikk kan posisjoneres slik at en på fruktbare måter trekker veksler på forskningsfeltene musikkpedagogikk, musikkvitenskap og barnekultur. Samtidig berører artikkelen hvordan forskningen kan legitimeres med støtte i de nevnte feltene og nødvendigheten av å arbeide på tvers av forskningsfelter for å tilføre ny kunnskap. Etter en kort redegjørelse for barnemusikk som barnekulturforskning føres en mer inngående diskusjon av musikkbegrepet i lys av det musikkpedagogiske feltets selvforståelse og utvalgte musikkvitenskapelige perspektiver. Tilslutt foreslås affordanse-perspektivet (affordance) som en fruktbar, fleksibel måte å nærme seg ”musikk” på i barnekulturell sammenheng.
English abstract
This article discusses children’s musicas a trans-disciplinary research topic. Its point of departure is aresearch project on how children between 3 and 6 years of age use recorded music (such as music CDs,Mp3 files and so forth) in their everyday lives, and it discusses how the topic of ”children’s music” canbe positioned so that it benefits from existing research in all three of the fields of music education, musicology and children’s culture. The discussion touches upon how this specific research project waslegitimised by drawing on these three fields of knowledge, and the necessity of working across disci-plines in order to explore new topics and gain new insights is underscored. The article starts with ashort introduction to children’s music and children’s culture and then focuses on concepts of music inthe light of the self-conception of music education and selected musicological concepts. It is arguedthat the concept of affordance is a fruitful way of approaching ”music” in children’s culture.
På spaning efter en gräns: Några barns perspektiv på skillnader mellan förskoleklassens och fritidshemmets verksamheter i Sverige
Authors: Ackesjö Helena , Landefrö Anna
Published: May 2020

Majoriteten av alla sexåringar deltar i både förskoleklass- och fritidshemsverksamhet, vilket innebär att de dagligen vandrar över gränsen mellan två historiskt och traditionellt skilda arenor. Föreliggande artikel strävar efter att vinna kunskap om några barns perspektiv på skillnader mellan verksamheterna och på vad som utmärker de olika institutionernas identiteter. Empirin består av intervjuer och observationer som har genererats genom en mindre fallstudie. I studien flätas teorier om gränser, övergångar och identiteter samman, och som analytiska begrepp har gränsmarkeringar, skillnader och gränsöverträdanden använts. Resultaten visar att barnen beskriver innehållsliga skillnader mellan verksamheterna: lek och fria val är centralt i fritidshemmet medan skollikt lärande och vuxenstyrning verkar centralt i förskoleklassen. Dock verkar barnen inte med säkerhet kunna avgöra var gränsen mellan de olika verksamheterna dras och när övergången mellan verksamheterna sker. I empirin framträder att lärarna använder delar av fritidshemstiden till att bemästra förskoleklassens åtaganden, vilket bidrar till att gränsen mellan verksamheterna blir svårtolkad för barnen. Även om studien är liten till sin karaktär indikerar den att tydliga institutionella identiteter verkar ha svårt att konstrueras och upprätthållas då lokaler, lärare och aktiviteter för förskoleklass och fritidshem verkar vara i stort sett desamma på båda sidor av gränsen.
Omsorg i svenska fritidshem: fritidspedagogers etiska förmåga och konsekvenser för barn
Authors: Hjalmarsson Maria , Löfdahl Annica
Published: May 2020

Den här artikeln syftar till att undersöka hur fritidspedagoger förstår och tolkar omsorgsaspekten i sitt uppdrag och arbete samt vilka konsekvenser detta kan få för de barn som deltar i verksamheten. Det empiriska materialet bygger på intervjuer med och dagboksanteckningar skrivna av fritidspedagoger. Resultaten visar på fritidspedagogers etiska förmåga att arbeta med omsorg. Denna etiska förmåga kan beskrivas som en sammantagen förmåga bestående av kunskaper om omsorgsetiska värden, om förmåga att möta krav på omsorg i verksamheten samt deras etiska förhållningssätt. Resultaten har analyserats utifrån barndomssociologiskt ramverk och visar att fritidshemmet kan förstås som en unik omsorgsarena där barn ges möjligheter att utveckla en egen omsorgskompetens och där barn ges möjligheter, som individer och som grupp, att bli delaktiga i ett hållbart omsorgsklimat där barnens egna omsorgshandlingar ses som viktiga, både här-och-nu och i ett framtida perspektiv.
Små barn og læring for bærekraftig utvikling – inspirasjon fra et besøk i Queensland, Australia
Authors: Sageidet Barbara Maria
Published: May 2020

Artikkelen viser til pedagogisk praksis relatert til små barn og bærekraftig utvikling, slik den ble oppfattet ved besøk i en uteskole og i fem barnehager i Queensland, under et forskningsopphold ved School of Early Childhood, University of Technology, Brisbane. Ved hjelp av observasjoner, samtaler og kvalitativ kartlegging finner vi en tverrfaglig inquiry-basert læringskultur som får barna til å fokusere på både natur, fellesskap og bærekraftig utvikling. Lek og læring går i ett. I barnehagene i Queensland pleier ikke barna å gå utenfor porten, men alle har hager og noen dyrker grønnsaker og driver bærekraftig handel i lokalsamfunnet. Ikke alt er så ulikt i barnehagehverdagen i Queensland og Norge, slik at gjensidig inspirasjon blir praksisnært for arbeidet med bærekraftig utvikling. Realisering av barnas medvirkning bør videreutvikles begge steder. Barnehagelærere trenger tverrfaglige kompetanser og dybdekompetanser i alle fag for å gi barna erfaringer og en begynnende forståelse om jorda som vårt felles nærmiljø.
Men er det egentlig lek? En teoretisk drøfting av den autonome lekens plass i en institusjonalisert barndom
Authors: Nome Dag Øystein
Published: May 2020

Artikkelen drøfter hva som skjer med vilkåret for lek når barnehagen knyttes til barnets samlede utdanningsløp med skjerpede krav og forventninger om læringsutbytte. Når et helhetlig læringssyn forutsetter at også uformelle situasjoner skal tillegges vekt i arbeidet med barns læring, kan leken bli gjenstand for vurdering og voksenregi i den hensikt å utnytte dens nytteverdi og læringspotensial på bekostning av den autonome lekeflyten. Skolens balansegang mellom hensynet til danning og krav om målstyring kan dermed komme til å prege barnehagesektoren også. Det leken i et målstyrt læringsperspektiv vil være avhengig av, er det leken i et danningsperspektiv hele tiden vil unndra seg. Artikkelen argumenter derfor for å skjerme lekens autonomi og frigjøre den fra læringsmål for at barnehagene skal oppfylle forventningen om å bidra til barnas danning.

International Trade of Chilean and Tasmanian Salmon and the Governmental Human Resource Policy enabling its Expansion
Authors: Naru Arslan , Shoaib Faran
Published: May 2020

International trade policy theorists have repeatedly focused their works on actors developing or implementing policies, rather than the actual policies themselves. Dani Rodrik, Chalmers Johnson and Peter Evans are amongst those renowned international trade and industrialization scholars who dedicated most of their research to human resource development in countries that delivered miraculous economic growth. Chile may be considered one of those miraculous states, in part due to the development of its salmon fishing industry. Tasmania, another southern hemisphere salmon producing region, has also procure a State-guided sectorial development. Both face common attributes and challenges. On one hand, Chile and Tasmania salmon development is highly explained due to the existence of a bureaucratic regime highly supportive of human capital development in the new sector. On the other hand, still both face challenges to find the right balance between profitability and environmental sustenance. Chile has shown record export growth, but it has raised questions on sanitary management; while Tasmania has enforced strict environmental compliance, it has hardly earned anything from exports of Salmon.
La Interinstitucionalidad en las Relaciones Multilaterales de la Cooperación Interregional en América Latina
Authors: Rosales Segura Andrés
Published: May 2020

La interinstitucionalidad es una forma distinta de entender la cooperación, representa la actividad conjunta entre instituciones, tanto estatales como internacionales, tomando como base los objetivos de integración y cooperación regional latinoamericanos, es decir situar la interinstitucionalidad desde el punto en donde se difumina la política exterior y la política interna.

Este tema se ubica precisamente en esta disyuntiva de fronteras internas y externas, dejando de lado los temores de las injerencias o discusiones soberanas, y centrándose más en temas conjuntos, a través de estructuras democráticas y permanentes en el tiempo. Ello parece ser más práctico que las tradicionales decisiones unilaterales o de la situación particular del momento, incentivada por razones políticas o económicas en la mayoría de los casos.
Revisiting the Manila Galleon, a Chilean Perspective from the XXI Century
Authors: Glasinovic Vernon Juan Pablo
Published: May 2020

The Manila Galleon marked the beginning of globalization as we know it today, linking Asia with the Americas and Europe through trade, from the second half of the XVI century until the first decades of the XIX century. Only a few decades after its discovery and conquest by Spain, the American continent burst onto the global scene allowing quasi industrial production in China and global trade, based on the silver pattern. A combination of circumstances made possible this first wave of globalization, ignited by the Americas. Looking back at that experience, we can better understand the current status of world affairs and extract some important lessons for Latin America in order to recover prominence in the relationship with Asia.
Boas práticas em estudos ambientais para processos simplificados de avaliação de impacto ambiental
Authors: Gaspar Carolina , Dos Santos Simone Mendonça , De Souza Marcelo Marini Pereira
Published: May 2020

A Avaliação de Impacto Ambiental (AIA) é internacionalmente reconhecida pelo papel que desempenha na prevenção e redução dos impactos decorrentes de propostas de implantação de empresas e de empreendimentos. Contudo, os sistemas de AIA em todo mundo vêm sendo questionado quanto à morosidade dos procedimentos empregados e, por isso, decorrem propostas de simplificações dos trâmites e/ou complexidade dos estudos ambientais exigidos. No caso específico dos estudos ambientais simplificados, recaem dúvidas sobre a pertinência e qualidade desses documentos como únicos insumos na tomada de decisão acerca da viabilidade ambiental dos projetos propostos. Considerando essas lacunas, o presente artigo parte da revisão sistemática da literatura para a proposição de requisitos de qualidade para estudos ambientais em processos de AIA, os quais são aplicados na avaliação do Relatório Ambiental Preliminar (RAP) de uma barragem para abastecimento de água no Estado de São Paulo (SP). Este caso se revelou tratar de documento com uma série de deficiências que comprometem a eficácia do processo de AIA. Conclui-se pela necessidade de reafirmação dos mecanismos de participação pública e adoção de ferramentas que contribuam para uma avaliação mais objetiva dos estudos ambientais apresentados, fornecendo meios para que técnicos e autoridades ambientais possam distinguir as lacunas de informação decorrentes do nível de conhecimento sobre o meio e das omissões intencionais.
A Portfolio of Risky Assets and Its Intrinsic Properties
Authors: Angelini Pierpaolo
Published: May 2020

We show a canonical expression of a univariate risky asset. We find out a canonical expression of the product of two univariate risky assets when they are jointly considered. We find out a canonical expression of a portfolio of two univariate risky assets when it is viewed as a stand-alone entity. We prove that a univariate risky asset is an isometry. We define different distributions of probability on R inside of metric spaces having di erent dimensions. We use the geometric property of collinearity in order to obtain this thing. We obtain the expected return on a portfolio of two univariate risky assets when it is viewed as a stand-alone entity. We also obtain its variance. We show that it is possible to use two di erent quadratic metrics in order to analyze a portfolio of two univariate risky assets. We consider two intrinsic properties of it. If a portfolio of two univariate risky assets is viewed as a stand-alone entity then it is an antisymmetric tensor of order 2. What we say can be extended to a portfolio of more than two univariate risky assets.

Tien aanpassingen aan het Nederlands procesrecht in het licht van de datagedreven samenleving en autonome systemen

Nederland transformeert naar een datagedreven samenleving. De politie, de Belastingdienst en uitkeringsinstanties experimenteren met Big Data; private partijen, zoals sociale media, banken, en medische organisaties gebruiken algoritmes en profielen om beleidskeuzes te maken. Daarbij worden beleidskeuzes steeds meer geautomatiseerd. Uit de substantiële hoeveelheden data die worden verzameld worden patronen, correlaties en waarschijnlijke verbanden tussen verschillende datapunten gedestilleerd. De profielen die op basis daarvan worden vervaardigd worden gebruikt om keuzes te maken over toekomstige gevallen. Hierdoor wordt het besluit- en beleidsvormingsproces in toenemende mate gestandaardiseerd. De hoop is dat de door data-analyse geïnformeerde besluiten kwalitatief beter zullen zijn en dit de uitvoering van het beleid effectiever en efficiënter zal maken. In onderzoek dat is verricht in opdracht van het ministerie van Justitie en veiligheid wordt geconcludeerd dat tien veranderingen aan het Nederlands recht nodig zijn om deze transitie in goede banen te leiden.
De mechanismes van algoritmische collusie

Published: May 2020

De mechanismes van algoritmische collusie

De populariteit van zelflerende algoritmes heeft zorgen gewekt bij academici en mededingingstoezichthouders over het mogelijk prijsverhogende effect van algoritmes voor prijszetting. Experts waarschuwen dat zelflerende algoritmes stilzwijgend zouden kunnen samenspannen en hogere prijzen kunnen bewerkstelligen (colluderen). Aan de andere kant zijn er auteurs die stellen dat coördinatie zelfs voor algoritmes te complex is om zonder verboden informatie-uitwisseling te bereiken. Wij overbruggen het gat tussen theoretische zorgen en dit praktisch scepticisme. In dit artikel analyseren wij mechanismes die ervoor zorgen dat zelflerende algoritmes in een setting met concurrentie relatief hoge prijzen kunnen bereiken, met een onderscheid tussen vorming en stabiliteit van stilzwijgende samenspanning. We analyseren de praktische toepasbaarheid van deze mechanismes. Stabiliteit-bevorderende mechanismes kunnen vóórkomen, maar we vinden het minder aannemelijk dat ook de prijsverhogende mechanismes in de praktijk kunnen worden gerealiseerd, vanwege de aanzienlijke kosten van experimentatie met prijzen, die essentieel is voor deze mechanismes. We concluderen dat het gebruik van AI (Artifical Intelligence) voor prijszetting mechanismes biedt die het risico op algoritmische collusie verhogen, maar de praktische belemmeringen betekenen dat het risico op dit moment beperkt lijkt te zijn tot specifieke markten of samenloop van omstandigheden.
Property $(w)$ of upper triangular operator Matrices
Authors: Rashid Mohammad M.H
Published: May 2020

Let $M_C=\begin{pmatrix} A & C \\ 0 & B \\ \end{pmatrix}\in\LB(\x,\y)$ be be an upper triangulate Banach spaceoperator. The relationship between the spectra of $M_C$ and $M_0,$ and theirvarious distinguished parts, has been studied by a large number of authors inthe recent past. This paper brings forth the important role played by SVEP,the {\it single-valued extension property,} in the study of some of these relations. In this work, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions of implication of the type $M_0$ satisfies property $(w)$ $\Leftrightarrow$ $M_C$ satisfies property $(w)$ to hold. Moreover, we explore certain conditions on $T\in\LB(\hh)$ and $S\in\LB(\K)$ so that the direct sum $T\oplus S$ obeys property $(w)$, where $\hh$ and $\K$ are Hilbert spaces.
Science-to-conservation disconnections in Borneo and British Columbia
Authors: “Jack” Putz F.E.
Published: May 2020

Borneo differs fundamentally from Canada, but reflections on the struggles to improve the fates of its tropical rain forests may resonate with people engaged in the same struggles on the other side of the Pacific. I frame these reflections around the question of why my efforts as a researcher in Borneo failed to cause a change from predatory logging of old growth to conservation through improved forest management. Perhaps my most fundamental mistake was unwillingness to recognize the immense profitability of forest liquidation through multiple-premature re-entry logging, especially when followed by conversion to plantations of African oil palm or Australian acacias. Superimposed on the high opportunity costs of conservation were governance failures that diminished the effectiveness of policies set by government as well as those set by certifiers of responsible management. Conservation of the mostly remote, flooded, and steep hinterlands still covered by forest will benefit from acknowledgment of the internationally recognized intrinsic land rights of Borneo’s indigenous peoples combined with full economic cost accounting of the consequences of forest degradation and conversion. Given the global importance of old growth in Borneo, Canada, and elsewhere, global funding for conservation should be made available with safeguards such as UNESCO Biosphere designations.
Collaboration via co-authorship trends in Government of Canada forestry research
Authors: MacDonald Heather , McKenney Daniel W. , DeBoer Kaitlin
Published: May 2020

As part of its long history, the Canadian Forest Service (CFS) has a mandate to collaborate and share its scientific research. Publishing peer-reviewed scientific literature is an important part of this process. Using a database of CFS publications over the past fifty years, we highlight the continuing publication record of this sector of the Canadian government. The average number of authors reported in the CFS bookstore increased from 1.4 authors per article in the 1960s and 1.5 in the 1970s to just under five authors per publication from 2010 to 2018. Our work also illustrates challenges with longitudinal analysis of citation databases. In particular, use of a popular citation database resulted in significantly fewer articles authored by one person, and significantly more articles with twenty or more authors compared to the publicly available CFS “bookstore” of publications. Based on our findings, we outline a number of recommendations for use of citation data to inform collaboration research.
Linear ordering of objects as applied to assesing economic activity of populations in voivodships
Authors: Sompolska-Rzeczuła Agnieszka
Published: May 2020

The aim of the paper is to compare the results of adopting different methods of linear ordering of objects applied to evaluating the level of economic activity of the population, as well as to select the method for the final assessment of the studied complex phenomenon. Two approaches have been presented. The first involves choosing from the results obtained by adopting all the analysed pattern and patternless methods, while the other proposes the choice of a method separately for each group. The studied problem has been demonstrated on the example of the level of economic activity of the population, which was defined on the basis of the data for the end of the first quarter of 2019, presented for voivodships and drawn from the Labour Force Survey in Poland (LFS). The analysis involved using several variants of patternless methods that differed from one another according to which formula of the diagnostic feature normalisation they used, as well as the following standard methods: Hellwig’s method, TOPSIS and the positional method based on Weber’s spatial median. In the group of the patternless methods of linear ordering, the one which yielded results closest to the results obtained using all the other variants was the method based on zeroed unitarisation. In the group of the pattern methods, similar conditions were met by Hellwig’s method.
Indonesian Cinema before Reformasi
Authors: Barker Thomas
Published: May 2020

Tracing the history of Indonesian cinema up until 1998, this chapter considers the way in which cinema was conceptualised through post-independence nationalism and later by its relationship to the authoritarian New Order regime. Often referred to as film nasional, Indonesian cinema has been subject to a nationalist interpretation which has meant the promotion of a prescriptive idea of cinema as a tool for nation building. By questioning the parameters of film nasional and the veneration of artist filmmakers like Usmar Ismail, this chapter traces the history of Indonesian cinema and the film industry as a complex network of interests and influence that cannot be reduced to the values of individual filmmakers. It shows how throughout the New Order the film industry came under state control before its decline in the 1990s and relegation to the cultural periphery. Here the failures of existing explanatory models are revealed just as the New Order would end in 1998.
Ignoring CCP Calls to Return to Xinjiang
Authors: Grose Timothy
Published: May 2020

Chapter Three reveals the tendency for Xinjiang Class graduates to seek opportunities abroad or in inner China instead of returning to Xinjiang. Considering the pressures China’s Ministry of Education and Xinjiang’s provincial-level government place on these Uyghurs to return to Xinjiang after their formal education, this chapter interprets these students’ decisions to not return as a tacit expression of ethno-national identity, which takes the form of resistance to political culture.

Méningche bizning millet dawamliq güllep yashnaydu. Kelgülsimiz parlaq bolidu dep oylaymen

—Ilham, Xinjiang Class Graduate, Hangzhou

In February 2015 the inconceivable happened. Tursun, a twenty-three-year-old Uyghur man, was placed into custody at an undisclosed detention center in China after allegedly traveling to Afghanistan to engage in global jihad. He had previously studied in the Xinjiang Class; in fact, he was only one of six students from his school in rural Khotan to be accepted into the program. In a nationally televised interview, the young Uyghur man—shackled in his chair and wearing a prison jumpsuit—spoke fondly of his days in the boarding school. The dorms were spacious, the food was delicious, and the teachers were caring, he recalled. Although he took the college entrance examination twice, his scores were not high enough to attend his university of choice.

Reproductive Justice Re-Constructs Christian Ethics of Work
Authors: Posadas Jeremy ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: May 2020

This essay proposes an anti-work Christian ethics of work: that is, an ethics of work that breaks Christianity’s complicity with capitalism’s death-dealing ideology of work. Taking up feminist anti-work theory’s call to the “refusal of work,” the essay first clarifies the relationship between work and care within the capitalist work-system (a concept coined here by the author). It then argues that the activist framework known as reproductive justice—once it is expanded to the whole sphere of social reproduction—offers a moral norm adequate for an anti-work Christian ethics of work. This new norm resonates with the Christian account of Creation, in which ruach circulates for the joy-filled liveliness of all.
Locating Meaning in Later Anglo-Saxon England: Meeting-Places of the witan, 924–1016
Authors: Roach Levi
Published: May 2020

This chapter examines the meeting-places of royal assemblies (‘the witan’) in later Anglo-Saxon England. By means of four case studies, it demonstrates that these sites were carefully chosen and intimately associated with the business conducted at such events. In this respect, archaeological and onomastic studies of assembly sites, which have tended to focus on their local context, can be profitably brought together with more recent historical scholarship, which highlights the importance of ritual and demonstration at such gatherings: the former reveals the significance of the stages of these events, whilst the latter provides a framework for understanding the nature and meaning of the acts played out there.
Accommodating Assemblies, as Evidenced at the 6th–11th-Century AD Royal Residence at Lake Tissø, Denmark
Authors: Jørgensen Lars , Thomsen Lone Gebauer , Jørgensen Anne Nørgård
Published: May 2020

In the 6th and 7th centuries, large elite residences were established in Scandinavia. They differ from the earlier chieftain residences in size and apparent multi-functionality with respect to politics, religion, law and trade. Classic sites include Old Lejre and Tissø in Denmark, and Old Uppsala in Sweden. The growing dominions of the emerging petty-kings at this time presuppose control and cohesion in society, which is evidenced, among other things, by regular assemblies in which the population participated. Some of the larger accumulations of pit houses are here interpreted as assembly sites. Support for this interpretation is sought through analogy with church towns from the medieval and renaissance periods in northern Scandinavia. The pit house is thus interpreted as temporary accommodation for families or persons participating in different kinds of assemblies. Large assemblies emerged in the 6th century probably as a result of the elite’s increasing demand for control and communication.
Ulpianum–Nyeuberge–Prişthine: Places of Power on the Plain of Kosovo
Authors: Teichner Felix
Published: May 2020

To this day, the central Balkan region of Kosovo bears an important geostrategic meaning due to its rich metal ore reserves. Consequently, the effort that respective hegemonic powers—Imperium Romanum, Byzantine Empire, Bulgarian, Serbian and Ottoman state—put into controlling these deposits and in establishing administrative and economic centres in the area is traceable throughout history. The development of these places of power that dominate the Plain of Kosovo is portrayed in the light of new archaeological investigations. They suggest that, in addition to accessibility to natural resources including mines, infrastructural connections and political stability decided the success or failure of archaeologically or historically identifiable urban places, which were themselves located according to exogenic circumstances. After emphasising the central role of the Roman urban heritage upon developing early medieval power structures, this chapter looks beyond the Middle Ages at the connection between (urban) ‘place’ and ‘power’ in this Balkan region.
Archaeology and Geographies of Jurisdiction: Evidence from South-East Suffolk in the 7th Century
Authors: Scull Christopher
Published: May 2020

Conventional models of state formation and the ways in which early polities might be expressed in the archaeological record for England in the 7th century have emphasised the importance of long-distance exchange in promoting socio-economic complexity. Such models, however, are open to challenge or refinement from interpretations that would emphasise other social dynamics, and beg serious questions about the relationships between agrarian production, elite acquisition and consumption and structures of power and jurisdiction. This chapter presents a critical evaluation of some current assumptions and approaches, and examines the interpretative questions in the light of recent evidence from south-east Suffolk, often seen as the heartland of the early kingdom of the East Angles.
Introduction
Authors: Levitin Dmitri
Published: May 2020

What effect did the structural process of religious confessionalisation have on the production, publication, and dissemination of works of erudition, and on shaping those aspects of European intellectual activity that have come to be known as the ‘humanities’? This introductory overview offers a comparative assessment of that question, focussing separately on each confessional space: Catholic, Reformed, and Lutheran, and the individual regions within each. It stresses the importance of confessional investment in erudite practices for stimulating their growth and development. At the same time, it emphasises the importance of trans-confessional emulation as an agent of intellectual change. It is suggested that early modern erudition and the conditions in which it developed should be conceptualised on their own terms, rather than as a triumphant precursor of the ‘modern’ humanities or a pale remnant of the golden age of a pre-confessional Renaissance humanism.
Confessional History and the Authority of Erudition
Authors: Quantin Jean-Louis
Published: May 2020

In his History of the variations of the Protestant Churches, his major work of confessional controversy, Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet (1627-1704) made a genuine effort to use various primary sources. In the case of England, however, he chose to rely on a single authority, Gilbert Burnet’s (1643-1715) History of the Reformation of the Church of England, which was available to him in a recent French translation. This reflected Bossuet’s tactical determination to employ only authors whom his Protestant adversaries could not object to, but also his paradoxical affinities with Burnet, whose very political reading of the English Reformation fitted well with his own interpretation. Burnet, however, had included in his History a rich collection of records, which Bossuet studied and occasionally used to challenge Burnet’s main text. Although Bossuet’s interests remained those of a polemical divine, he spoke the language of historical erudition to assert his trustworthiness.
Language of Paradise
Authors: Loop Jan
Published: May 2020

This chapter discusses the discovery of Arabic poetry in Western Europe in the context of Protestant Arabic studies of the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. The piece centres on the work of the Dutch Orientalist Albert Schultens (1686–1750). His interest in Arabic poetry was driven by the idea that it preserves some of the characteristics of the primeval language and that it can help us understand the original meaning of the Hebrew texts of the Bible. The essay argues that in spite of its shortcomings, Schultens’ work is a significant moment in the history of oriental studies. It stimulated an entire generation of young scholars in Protestant Northern Europe; and his comparative study of Semitic languages, his concepts of the primeval language and its transmission as well as his great interest in the poetry of the East still resonate in early Romantic approaches to oriental poetry.
Effect of Consumption Value of Restaurant Service on Consumer Satisfaction: Focusing on Consumer Experiences at a Chinese Franchise Restaurant
Authors: Sun Wan Lu , Hwang Hyesun , Hong Ji Hyung
Published: May 2020

This study examined consumer experiences on consumption value for the restaurant service and the effect of consumption value on consumer satisfaction. Consumption value was composed of four values: functional, social, emotional, and epistemic. Participants consisted of 407 consumers who live in Shanghai and have experience eating at Haidilao restaurant. The results of this study suggested that the perceived consumption value of the restaurant service varies by the socio-demographic backgrounds of consumers. Consumer satisfaction is affected by the epistemic, emotional, and functional values of the restaurant service. The effect of epistemic value on consumer satisfaction with restaurant service was the highest among all consumption values followed by emotional and functional values. There was no significant effect of social value on consumer satisfaction. This study showed that consumers pursue various values in the restaurant services which had a greater influence on consumer satisfaction than the functional value related to the primary purpose of restaurant services. As the consumer experience diversifies along with the globalized food service industry, it is necessary to improve the consumer satisfaction of restaurant services by investigating what values and experiences consumers pursue. The results of this study contribute to a consumer-oriented service design of restaurants by illuminating consumers’ experiences with consumption values that influence consumers’ satisfaction with the overall restaurant service.

A Study on the Dress Form for the Making Dresses: Focusing on the Size Cover Rate and Correction
Authors: Lee Sanghee , Kwon Sookhee
Published: May 2020

Underlying dress forms for high coverage patterns are very important in the dress industry. Size 9 from brand D was chosen according to the analysis that it was the best option because a dress should have a large allowable range in one size. The criteria for selection were the dress form with a waist circumference of 63.50 centimeters, which is close to the standard size of women in Korea. Brassieres for dresses were included to enhance the aesthetic value of the correction process in producing a basic dress pattern. An experimental torso pattern was applied to evaluate the fit and suitability of the dress form that was also later verified in the process of the dress works. Three dresses were produced and presented on the chosen study dress form.
The research procedures are as follows. First, the sell-through rates and feedbacks were collected from the dress form vendor. Second, a literature survey on dresses and a dress company investigation were conducted. Third, the amount of body dimension changes due to the use of a bra in the dresses were examined. Fourth, after the correction of the dress form, the torso pattern was made by draping. Fifth, the torso experimental clothing made of muslin material was evaluated. Sixth, the dress works of the top design were presented using the size 9 basic pattern developed by brand D.
