Background: There are various infant massage programmes designed for infants born without complications, but there are limitedoptions available for caregivers with high-risk infants from a resource-constrained context.Aim: This study aimed to develop a caregiver-initiated infant massage programme specific for high-risk infants in a resource-constrainedcontext to facilitate the bonding and attachment process between this dyad.Method: A three-round Delphi study was conducted with purposively selected physiotherapists and occupational therapists withexperience in the field of high-risk babies in a resource-constrained context. The design of the round one survey was informed by theavailable literature, and the subsequent two rounds of surveys were designed based on the prior rounds. Iteration of results was providedprior to the subsequent rounds.Results: Attrition between rounds occurred from an initial 14 participants in round one to 8 participants in round three. Consensus on19 massage strokes were achieved in addition to considerations for implementation of the programme with this population.Conclusion: The implication of attrition requires further study. Notwithstanding this, an infant massage programme for high-riskinfants was developed with the inclusion of considerations for this dyad's social and medical context.Key words: Infant massage, Infant massage programme, High-risk infants, Delphi technique, Bonding.

Environmental aspects of mining geomechanics
Authors:   Melnikov Research Institute of Comprehensive Exploitation of Mineral Resources, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia, Galchenko Yu. P.
Published: February 2021

The modern technocratic civilization has grown in the conditions of perpetual and irresolvable antagonistic contradiction between the biological essence of human beings as elements of the natural biota of the Earth and the abiological methods used to obtain the needed energy through extermination of the natural biota and its replacement by the anthropogenic biota of different functional purposes. The material and energy basis of the technosphere as an artificial living space for a human being is the substance produced as a result of irreversible destruction of the lithosphere. Permanently increasing difficulty and deeper level of mining make mining geomechanics the top-priority area of research. The stress–strain analysis is a requisite component of studies aimed at selecting a geotechnology and determining its parameters. This analysis evaluates mining-induced stresses. The values of such stresses are determined mainly at critical points of boundaries of mining-caused voids with a view to ensuring stability of exposed surfaces and pillars. The feasibility of ecological evaluation of mining-induced changes in the stress–strain behavior of the disturbed lithosphere using the appropriate procedure being developed can make it possible to rank geotechnologies using the related criteria. This allows taking one more step towards an engineering framework for the concept of sustainable nature and society activity in the course of the mineral sector development. This study has been supported by the Russian Science Foundation, Project No. 19–17–00034).
Post-limit properties and correlation with spontaneous fracture dynamics in rocks
Authors:   Far Eastern Federal University, Vladivostok, Russia, Tarasov B. G.
Published: February 2021

Spontaneous rock fracture can only occur beyond the ultimate stress limit. The currently known three classes of the post-limit rock behavior (class I, class II and class III) feature different dynamics of spontaneous fracture at the same initial conditions. This article discusses post-limit properties and fracture energy balances in these classes of the post-limit rock behavior. The author focuses on least-studied class III typical of seismic depths. It is shown that class III features the lowest destructive energy and the highest elastic energy release, which creates conditions for the uppermost dynamics of spontaneous fracture. Class III rocks are most instable at seismic depths and are most susceptible to initiation of both natural and induced earthquakes and deep-level rock bursts. Ideas on the spontaneous fracture conditions in strong and brittle rocks were developed concurrently with techniques of studying post-limit properties of rocks. The techniques were improved with sequential discovery of the three classes of the behavior of rocks having post-limit properties illustrated in this article. The bar chart of typical change in the frequency of earthquakes and aftershocks with depth is explained by the action of the fan mechanism. The depth of rocks having minimal fan strength conforms with the depth of the maximum seismic activity. At shallow depths outside the influence zone of the fan mechanism, the stick–slip mechanism is active. The study was supported by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, Grant No. RFMEFI58418X0034.
General features of strong rock bursts and induced earthquakes in critical-stress areas of the Earth’s crust
Authors:   NUST MISIS, Moscow, Russia, Batugin A. S.
Published: February 2021

The problem connected with rock bursts and induced earthquakes is yet one of the most critical in the mining regions. The manmade nature of disastrous earthquakes induced in the areas of the heaviest impact on the subsoil is being widely discussed. The main argument against the manmade genesis of such earthquakes is their great depths and high energies. The general features of the induced earthquakes are considered. The displacement directions of the walls of large tectonic faults during such events are analyzed. The sizes of focal zones are estimated and related with sizes of geodynamcially active blocks in the Earth’s crust. The location of hypocenters of geodynamic events relative to the manmade impact zones is studied. The found homogeny of strong rock bursts and induced earthquakes is explained by the interaction of local and regional (global) geodynamic processes. The critical stress state of the upper Earth’s crust having hierarchical block structure is considered as the basis of such interaction. When focal zones of rock bursts and induced earthquakes have sizes of hundreds of meters or a few kilometers, the initiation zones of such events reaches many kilometers in size, is commensurable with the Earth’s crust blocks and is larger than the mining impact zone. Therefore, displacements along large faults are the part of a tectonic process, i.e. displacement directions along large faults during strong rock bursts are correlated with the regional stress field.

The strain analysis procedure is discussed in terms of a vertical mine shaft under the impact of extraction of ore reserves from protective pillar in Oktyabrsky mine of NorNickel’s Polar Division. The procedure is used in predictive strain analysis in depth of the shaft in case of different scenarios of protective pillar mining in ventilation shaft No. 3. The calculations show impossibility of preservation of shaft VS-3. Based on the prediction, it was decided on the early analysis of ventilation alternatives in the mine without involvement of shaft VS-3. The implemented research saved significant assets from spending on the shaft maintenance in the period of extraction of ore reserves from the protective pillar. Moreover, the time allowance until disability of shaft VS-3 enables scheduled planning and construction of access gateways to ensure the required ventilation mode in the mine.

A passport to success in mineral mining is the detailed geomechanical information on enclosing rock mass and structure of a mineral deposit. These data are used as a framework for the rock mass stability estimation. These data are taken into account in critical decision-making on mine design, which finally determines the mine safety and performance. The authors review the current methods of acquisition of geotechnical data at the stage of geological exploration. The structural model is constructed for Shiraldzhin gold deposit in Kyrgyzstan. The structural modeling used the data of geophysical measurements in 6 boreholes. It is shown that construction of a geotechnical database helps design future parameters of a mining system. Geophysical borehole investigations have an advantage over the conventional coring techniques in terms of cost and accuracy. The geophysical borehole measurements using a borehole image scanner requires maintenance of borehole parameters: diameter not less than HQ; angle not less 55°; mouth casing down to bedding rocks. Finally, the major requirement is scanning to be accomplished immediately after drilling (within one day depending on rock stability).

Theft as damage and unlawful exemption —doctrinal and enforcement problems
Authors: Khilyuta Vadim V.
Published: February 2021

Criminal law institutions and basic concepts are being reformatted. This work focuses on the objective signs of theft and the mode of activity - the seizure of someone elses property. The existing law enforcement practice and the current recommendations of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation on the qualification of thefts are critically perceived. The article focuses on provisions of the general theory of criminal law on the classification of theft. This study aims to substantiate the need for correlation of objective signs of theft in relation to the expansion of the boundaries of the object of theft and the method of activity. During the study, traditional methods of the sociolegal and formal-dogmatic analysis were used: documentary, comparative-legal, analytical, systemic, and logical. On the basis of the results of the study, adjustments were made to understand the objective side of theft and expand the boundaries of the method of action. The seizure of other peoples property cannot characterize the mechanism of embezzlement and reflect all aspects of qualification. The prospect of identifying theft with the extraction (receipt) of property benefits carries the risk of erasing the boundaries between embezzlement and other economic crimes. The author proposes models for the development of criminal legislation to establish criminal liability for crimes against property (property crimes). To modify the object of theft, its purpose, and mode of activity, the author proposes to identify a new group of crimes (crimes against the circulation of objects of civil rights) that would cover illegal acts against property and compulsory relations. Further scientific study requires a detailed separation of embezzlement (as attacks on bodily goods), crimes against the circulation of civil rights (as attacks on non-bodily goods), and crimes in economic activity (as attacks on the procedure for performing operations in the economy), summarizing their characteristic features and designing new formulations of crimes in the property sphere.
Vulnerability of the modern criminal legal system of Russia from the methods and means of conducting hybrid wars
Authors: Goloskokov Leonid V.
Published: February 2021

The features of the manifestations of hybrid wars were investigated by examples of its action in certain sectors of science, education, economics, finance, and criminal law. Certain characteristics of actions and events have been identified as elements of a hybrid war and not as random events.
The Criminal Code of the Russian Federation does not contain the necessary articles that would allow sufficient legal protection of the rights of citizens and the interests of the state from the actions and consequences of hybrid wars. In general, the criminal law system is not ready to identify and classify events as elements of a hybrid war, repel hybrid war attacks and waging confrontation, and work on the initial preemption and prevention of hybrid wars.
This article, which is proposed to be introduced into the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, reveals the concept of hybrid war and provides its full definition in a new article.
In conclusion, criminal legal measures and the possibilities of only the criminal legal system cannot solve the problems of confrontation in hybrid wars, and involvement of all the forces and resources of the state is necessary.
A proposal was made on the need to move to organizing the work of Russian law enforcement agencies on new principles: preemptive and prevention of hybrid wars instead of merely identifying their consequences and fragmentary application of criminal punishment for actions that are insignificant in comparison to the scale and damage caused by a hybrid war.
El destino de sol y playa en España para el turismo chino: una perla oculta aún por descubrir
Authors: Li Yin
Published: February 2021

España es uno de los principales destinos turísticos del mundo. Su extensión en costas, así como la variedad y calidad de sus playas ha provocado que estas se consideren desde hace décadas uno de los recursos turísticos más importantes, atrayendo a turistas de todo el mundo cada año. Sin embargo, este producto parece ser ignorado por los turistas chinoss cierto que a los chinos no les gustan las playas? ¿Cómo atraer a más turistas chinos a los litorales españoles? Estas son cuestiones que merece la pena indagar y debatir. Como consecuencia de ello, basándonos en el análisis sobre productos turísticos ofrecidos por agencias de viajes chinas, así como una encuesta dirigida a turistas chinos, se puede inferir que a los turistas chinos no les desagrada el turismo de sol y playa, sino que carecen de suficiente información y conocimiento sobre este producto. Consideramos por lo tanto que el turismo de sol y playa español de cara al mercado chino posee un considerable potencial que hay que desarrollar. En este sentido, hacemos unas propuestas prácticas a través de la cooperación empresarial, la mejora de instalaciones y servicios, y campañas de promoción bien diseñadas para aprovechar los recursos españoles de sol y playas y abrirlos al mercado emisor chino.

Authors: Llurdés Joan Carles , Romagosa Francesc , Díaz-Soria Inmaculada
Published: February 2021

En este artículo se hace una reflexión sobre el papel clave que juegan las empresas turísticas, en especial las micro y pequeñas empresas, en el favorecimiento de un turismo más sostenible a través del aprovechamiento y promoción del patrimonio cultural. En primer lugar, se aborda la relación entre las micro y pequeñas empresas turísticas y la protección del patrimonio cultural, sobre todo desde el punto de vista de su integración en el territorio y destino. A continuación, se trata la cuestión de la interacción cultural. La idea de partida es que para la conservación del patrimonio es básico hacer una gestión correcta de las visitas que se organicen en torno a ese patrimonio. La mejor manera de que las visitas sean más rentables para las empresas turísticas es contar con la comunidad local. Finalmente, el último apartado se dedica a la presentación de la cultura y el patrimonio por parte de las empresas, abordando la cuestión de la imagen y la importancia de que cualquier micro y pequeña empresa turística incorpore una visión global del territorio donde ejerza su actividad.
Perceção e realidade dos impactos do Caminho Português interior a Santiago na atividade comercial da cidade de Chaves

Published: February 2021

Este trabalho analisa os impactos no comércio local de Chaves do Caminho Português Interior a Santiago (CPIS). Com base no questionário elaborado ao efeito e passado a um conjunto representativo de comerciantes do setor da hotelaria e restauração com sede nas freguesias urbanas desta cidade portuguesa atravessadas pelo CPIS, foram focados os âmbitos, frequências e línguas de interação entre pessoas peregrinas e comerciantes locais; a demanda e a procura de serviços; a perceção das políticas de promoção, acolhimento e aproveitamento promovidas desde as instituições públicas portuguesas; e a posição atribuída por esta população ao Caminho na identidade da cidade.Os dados apontam para a unanimidade no entendimento dos benefícios do Caminho para o comércio local, ao tempo que se verifica o desfasamento entre o impacto real na economia de Chaves da passagem das pessoas peregrinas e aquele sentido pelos agentes vinculados ao setor comercial da cidade. Igualmente, verifica-se uma escassa interação entre comerciantes e pessoas peregrinas (veiculada esta, de regra, em português) traduzindo-se isto num impacto quase nulo no quotidiano do comércio local. Por último, demonstra-se ainda a irrelevância do CPIS na identidade da comunidade local, em contraste com o peso atribuído ao legado romano, apesar de ser o caminho português a Santiago assunto presente no debate relativo à construção de políticas públicas autárquicas.
Evolución de la distribución de las pectinas en la zona de unión en injertos de tomate
Authors: Martínez Romera Nerea , Frey Carlos , Acebes José Luis
Published: February 2021

Se ha estudiado la distribución de las pectinas en las paredes celulares durante el desarrollo de autoinjertos de tomate (Solanum lycopersicum L. “MinibelCocktail”) entre 1 y 20 días después del injerto. Se utilizó la tinción con rojo de rutenio para estudiar la distribución general de las pectinas, así como técnicas de inmunohistoquímica para analizar la localización de homogalacturonano poco o no metilesterificado –utilizando el anticuerpo monoclonal LM19– y muy metilesterificado –con el anticuerpo LM20–. Los resultados mostraron cómo la púa y el portainjerto siguieron una secuencia ordenada de sucesos de adhesión, proliferación del callo y reconexión vascular. En los primeros días, la acumulación de pectinas fue más acusada en la púa. Una vez establecido el injerto, se observó un aumento de la deposición de pectinas, particularmente las ricas en homogalacturonano poco metilesterificado, tanto en la zona de corte como en la zona de unión. Estos resultados muestran que a lo largo del proceso de injerto se produce una deposición de pectinas ricas en homogalacturonano poco metilesterificado en la zona de corte, la cual permite la adhesión entre púa y portainjerto, y que una vez establecido el injerto, el contenido de pectinas sigue siendo abundante en la zona de unión.

A Study of the Causes of Price Fluctuation in Apple Commodity and Consumer Shopping Behavior Based on Taste, Preferences, and Willingness to Pay
Authors: Huang Shiyuan , Mistry Rubal
Published: February 2021

The profit margin on the retailer’s side is thin, so increasing the consumer’s willingness to pay is crucial for the supply side to earn more profit. In this paper, the authors develop a taste test to see if consumers’ preference for organic and local apples can alter their taste perception for the same apple. The result showed consumer’s preference does change his/her taste preference on the same apple. Besides the experiment, the authors also design a survey to know the consumer’s shopping preferences and the exact willingness to pay. The survey results show that consumers are in support of Local Apples as compared to Organic Apples but are willing to pay more for Organic Apples than Local Apples. Another conclusion that can be drawn is that this survey indicates that there is a huge profit margin for retailers as consumers are willing to pay more for organic apples than the average market price for the apples.

Published: February 2021

With the advancement of the Internet and big data technology, currency has gradually developed in the direction of virtualization and digitization. The governments and central banks of various countries have gradually begun to pay attention to the role of digital currencies, and central bank digital currencies have emerged as the times require. As one of the first countries to study digital currency, China will devote itself to applying central bank digital currency to actual transactions in the future.

This article focuses on how China’s CBDC is used in the transaction settlement system. The opportunity is that the central bank’s digital currency technology improves the security, flexible operation and diversified application scenarios of the overall transaction settlement system, and further safeguards China’s national financial sovereignty. The challenge is that the current technology is still uncertain and different from the traditional RMB. In the future, China’s CBDC will also compete fiercely with other sovereign currencies. It is recommended to strengthen technological innovation, improve the relevant systems and regulations of the central bank’s digital currency operation, and make relevant policies to prevent the United States from imposing political and economic sanctions on China. This article will provide

suggestions on the challenges that the People’s Bank of China may face in the future application of digital currency to the transaction settlement system.

Crises may present unprecedented challenges that require people to think outside their traditional boxes. During COVID-19, many of us have seen officials and experts come together to share information and simultaneously respond to an emerging issue. For an evaluator working at the coalface of the pandemic response it can be an opportunity to draw from their kete (basket) of evaluation tools and matrixes to support the decision-making process to be as defensible as possible. This praxis article describes the process of three evaluators reflecting and discussing one such scenario and exploring how an evaluation-specific tool based on normative ethical theories could provide some benefit.
Features of Precedent Units Functioning in Russian Media Discourse (on the Example of «Argonauts», «Golden Fleece», «Jason»)
Authors: Mishchenko Anna N.
Published: February 2021

The article is devoted to the study of precedent units with the source «ancient Greek mythology», which have the potential to broadcast the linguistic and cultural features of a particular community, the recognition of which influences the success of intercultural communication. The work provides a comprehensive analysis of the precedent units included in the cycle «The History of the Golden Fleece», namely «Argonauts», «Golden Fleece», «Jason» in the texts of Russian-language media. In the article the author argues that the change in the semantics of constructions occurs not only at the denotative, but also at the connotative, pragmatic level, where the studied precedent units acquire new semantic features. The analysis of the functioning features of the precedent units included in the «History of the Golden Fleece» cycle allows us to establish the linguistic mechanisms of their «deployment» in the media discourse and come to the conclusion about the specifics of the fragment of the worldview, fixed in mythologized precedent phenomena.
Modes of Interpretation of «The Tragedy of Coriolanus» by W. Shakespeare
Authors: Karasik Vladimir I.
Published: February 2021

The paper deals with the hermeneutic approach to drama interpretation on the material of «The Tragedy of Coriolanus» by W. Shakespeare. The offered model includes a two-fold coordinate system: the analysis of the plot from the point of view of its identification, comprehension and attitude formation, on the one hand, and its semantic, pragmatic and stylistic explanation, on the other hand. The application of this approach to understanding of the tragedy in question makes it possible to define the subject of the play, its genre and the main characteristic features of its heroes. This is a semantic aspect of the identification stage of the play. A pragmatic aspect of the identification consists in describing the main evaluative positions of the heroes as expressed in their words and actions. A stylistic aspect of identification allows us to describe the main linguistic means used to create artistic images. The comprehension level of the text analysis viewed semantically is aimed at the reconstruction of its social and historical context explained by scholarly studies of Shakespeare and his epoch. The pragmatic aspect of analysis on the comprehension level is centered around the motives of the characters’ behavior, the logic of their actions, and the inevitability of their fate. The stage of action in interpretation corresponds to formation of attitudes to the meaning of the text connected with the present days. The tragedy of Coriolanus is a story about a great person who intentionally cuts off his ties with reality and about people around him who fail to come to rescue and thus make him perish.
«Russian Theme» in William Blake’s Works
Authors: Serdechnaya Vera V.
Published: February 2021

The article is devoted to the factors and evidences of William Blake’s interest in Russia, Russian places and politicians. An analysis of Blake’s works, especially his prophetic poems, confirm that Russia, Russian territories, and in particular the Russian Empress Catherine II, were interesting to Blake and were manifested in many ways in his works. Blake counts Russia and its territories in his great prophecies Milton and Jerusalem. The mention of Poland and Siberia, Tartaria, and Russia separately indicates that the spiritual geography of Blake’s works did not exactly correspond to the current administrative division of the world. There is a reason to believe that the image of the Russian Empress Catherine II was for Blake the embodiment of the sinister Female Will and became a model for the harlot of Babylon, captured by him in a portrait of 1809, as well as one of the prototypes of the powerful demiurge-spinner Enitharmon in prophetic poems. In politics, the end of the XVIII century, there was no ruler who would more embody the concept of female power than Catherine II.

Universality and Linguistic Specificity of Primary Interjections in Russian, English and Kazakh Languages (on the Material of Prose and Dramaturgy)
Authors: Lazukhina Lyubov V. , Sidorova Olga G.
Published: February 2021

Primary interjections consist of a group of prototypical units, which are associated with reflex cries by their origin, have an oral form called a vocal gesture, and written, conventional ones, with national characteristics. Analysis of similar features in pronunciation, spelling and semantics of prototypical units and linguistic differences of other units reveals universal characteristics of a limited number of prototypical interjections and linguistic specifity of the majority of primary interjections. Examples drawn from English, Russian and Kazakh languages demonstrate the ability of primary interjections to express the ambivalence of feelings and emotions. The article focuses on distinguishing instinctive and discursive categories of primary interjections concentrating on the mode of their production and purpose of use. The first category includes addressless exclamations that express a reaction to what is happening, as well as relevant feelings and emotions. The second group includes units that are explicitly or implicitly intended for the addressee of speech, which are used for communicative purposes. In contrast to instinctive interjections expressing spontaneous feelings and reactions, discursive units may reflect unreal emotions that the interlocutor expects to be demonstrated. In a pragmatic aspect, the use of primary interjections is considered to convey an ironic attitude to the subject of speech. The article provides an overview of language units that formally resemble primary interjections and make their identification difficult.

The article examines the modern purpose of finance through their functions in accordance with the law and the strategic policy of the state, including in emergency situations. According to the author, the purpose of finance is manifested in the distribution, control, regulatory, informational and stabilization function of finance. The distribution function of finance is fundamental. The state accumulates funds in public funds in order to subsequently distribute them according to public needs. In modern conditions, there is a complication of the control function of finance, its important component is the control over the implementation of financial transactions carried out using digital technologies and technical means. In this regard, the information function of finance is now very relevant, since finance is an important source of financially significant information when making management decisions. The regulatory function of finance is associated with government intervention in the allocation of government spending, in the implementation of preferential taxation, in the provision of subsidies, or vice versa, in increasing tax pressure and other restrictions. The stabilization function of finance is that the main task of the state should be the formation of a stable political, economic and social situation in the country, providing all business entities with a real opportunity to carry out legitimate entrepreneurial activity, creating socio-economic conditions for personal development. It is concluded that the modern understanding and purpose of finance requires scientific understanding as special financial relations arising on the basis of legal norms and in accordance with strategic financial policies aimed at strengthening the human potential and socio-economic development of the state in the new conditions of digital management contouring.

Wasting, categorized as either severe or moderate, is a form of child malnutrition that manifests with a low weight-for-height Z-score. Previous treatment methods for moderate wasting, which affects approximately 300,000 children in Kenya, were ineffective as they lacked a mechanism to replace the accelerated loss of lean tissue. Supplementation with leucine, maybe a safe and effective method for treating moderate wasting. At a high dosage, leucine activates the mammalian target of rapamycin within the muscles which enhances gain of lean tissue. Leucine supplements are currently inaccessible to populations affected by moderate wasting in Kenya. The objective of this study was,therefore,to formulate a leucine-rich composite flour (TheraPEM) from locally available foods for treatment of moderate wasting. Six composite flours were prepared using combinations of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), groundnuts (Voandzeia subterranea), and foxtail millet (Setaria italica) selected for their high leucine content, local availability and relatively low cost. Nutrient composition analysis and sensory evaluation were conducted on each of the six flours. The three preferred flours in terms of sensory attributes were subjected to accelerated shelf-life evaluation to determine changes in peroxide value, fat acidity, moisture content and total viable count. Kraft paper, gunny bags and plastic containers were the packaging materials used.All six flours met the Codex Alimentarius food standards for minimum energy density (80 kcal/100g) and maximum fat content (27 %) in processed cereal-based foods used for complementary feeding of infants and young children. They all also met the required > 1050 mg leucine per 100 grams of flour. Formulations 2, 3 and 5 had the most preferred sensory attributes and were thus subjected to accelerated shelf-life evaluation. At the fifth month, fat acidity was least in the flours packaged in plastic containers. There was no peroxide formation in any of the three samples during the storage period. The study generated six formulations that meet the minimum requirement for leucine in treatment of moderate wasting but formulation 3, had the most preferred sensory attributes. It is recommended that formulation three be subjected to a study to further validate its effectiveness in the treatment of moderate wasting prior to release for up-scaled use.

Reconsidering Difference
Authors: Kasamali Zahra
Published: February 2021

This paper explores how holistic-guided, sacred, ecological insights can support youth in their healing journeys from the individual and systemic violence of colonial exclusions. Drawing upon guidance from Indigenous sharing circle philosophies and sacred ecological insights, this article contends that the coming together of similarities and differences can generate the ethic of “wisdom relationality” (Kasamali, 2019) and promote healing. This theorizing is guided by the métissage sensibility and is supported by research conducted with an Alberta, Aboriginal Studies 30, secondary, high school class. By concentrating on experiences of four former Aboriginal Studies 30 students, this article illuminates their key learnings acquired from reconnecting with the healing energy that flows from Indigenous sharing circle philosophies. The article demonstrates that by reconsidering difference and responding to colonial exclusions from the place of holism inspires the students to achieve freedom, agency and in doing so, restores their sense of balance.
Open the Doors and Let Us Out: Escaping the Coloniality of Racism
Authors: Edwards Fiona C.
Published: February 2021

Racism is an integral part of racialized groups’ experiences as Whiteness continues to foster the power and privilege it affords to White people. This has resulted in the racialization of Black bodies inflicted by racism. For Black youth, escaping the coloniality of racism may seem to be an impossible task as racism is ubiquitous, and has been deeply embedded in societal structures for hundreds of years. However, a heightened consciousness of racism provides a platform to fight against racial injustice. Instead of being locked in systems of oppression whereby Black bodies are wounded, there is a movement in the youth population to end intergenerational racist ideologies of what it means to be Black. Open the doors and let us out: Escaping the coloniality of racism empowers Black youth to embrace their Blackness, use their bodies and voices to reconstruct their racial identities and positionalities in society with pride and dignity.
Negotiating Real Space and Real Time in Red Jacket: A Novel
Authors: Mordecai Pamela C.
Published: February 2021

Analysis of her 2015 novel, “Red Jacket” by author Pamela Mordecai showing how the tools of space and time were used to provide realism to the story. This was done by describing real events that happened over the space of the story including weather events, political events as well as geographical descriptions to give an idea of fictional locations. Red Jacket is neither fabulist tale nor historical fiction. It is a made-up story, set at a time marked by events, some real and some imaginary, and set in places, some real and some imaginary.
