Authors:   Bunin Yelets State University, Kudryavtseva O.M.
Published: January 2022

The article substantiates the need of teaching "soft" skills to students of non-linguistic degree courses in accordance with the modern requirements of society. Nowadays possession of academic and professional skills is not enough for a successful career. The economy of the new information technology level makes special demands on university graduates. He/she must be a versatile personality, navigate the information space, be able to find the necessary information and subject it to critical analysis; be ready to work in the context of intercultural interaction. Soft skills are of particular importance. A foreign language as an academic discipline has the certain opportunities for forming and developing “soft” skills which are necessary for the successful mastering of the chosen profession. In this regard it is proposed to include the work on forming soft skills in the foreign language teaching of students of non-linguistic degree courses. Based on the analysis of the concept of “soft” skills and the specifics of professional activity in the chosen areas of training “Social work”, “Psychological and pedagogical education” and “Special (defectological) education”, the author identified two groups of “soft” skills that need to be taught to students in a foreign language classes. These are the skills that contribute to personal development and significant for future professional activities and the skills that characterize relationships with other people. The article proposes a step-by-step method of work on forming of these groups of “soft” skills in the process of a foreign language teaching. The author proposes the following stages: informational and introductory, practical and control. A system of exercises has been selected, the communication situations have been simulated, and topics of project work have been presented for each stage.

The authors are guided by the principle of professional orientation of teaching mathematics in the secondary vocational educational system. Professional orientation in training in an educational program is considered as a combination of content and activity (procedural) aspects. The article explains that forming the ability to deal with algorithms is the key reference mark for students of the technical profile. The content of these skills and proficiency levels for students of secondary vocational educational institutions have been outlined. The ability to work with algorithms involves the formation of the following actions: to establish the “essence” of the algorithm, to highlight the steps of the algorithm and establish links between them, to develop mechanisms for the implementation of each stage. Students need to learn how to highlight the essence of algorithmic phenomena, implement a given algorithm, control the progress of the algorithm, find errors, and make adjustments. When performing actions “as directed”, students are offered a ready-made algorithm of actions to solve certain problems. When performing “by reference points”, students are required to conduct an analysis associated with the rationalization of the proposed algorithm. The independent performance of actions is distinguished by the complete independence of the student from any instructions. It is assumed that when teaching mathematics in the system of secondary vocational education of a technical profile, the selection of pedagogical technologies must be oriented towards achieving the level of independent implementation of the algorithm.

Początki użytkowania szabli na terenie wczesnośredniowiecznej Armenii
Authors: Dymydjuk Dymitr
Published: January 2022

For a long time, the military history of the Medieval Armenia was not an object of historical research, which in turn had a negative impact on the studies of the region’s social and political history. It is indisputable that in Armenia, as in most countries during the Middle Ages, the sword was a popular – albeit expensive – weapon. But when did sabres appear in Armenia, and were they popular? Images or archaeological fi nds of sabres from the territory of Armenia date only from the 12th/13th centuries, while in the Byzantine Empire and Abbasid Caliphate the sabre had been known already in the 9th–11th centuries, used mainly by nomads serving as mercenaries in both armies. Unfortunately, written sources are not really helpful, as Armenian chroniclers used diff erent terms (– sur, tur, suser – sur, tur, suser) in order to describe the word “sword” or something of the kind, diff erences between which are not completely understood. Moreover, there exists a methodological problem of distinguishing a backsword/pallash (single-edged sword) from a sabre. In order to make this research a more relevant, a comparative analysis with Byzantine, Georgians, Muslim and Nomads materials regarding the appearance, distribution and use of the sabre was employed. The conclusion states that in South Caucasus, the sabre appeared a bit later than in the Byzantine Empire and Abbasid Caliphate, having arrived thanks to North Caucasus, Byzantine, Muslim or Seljuk infl uences in the 10th–11th centuries, given that nomad mercenaries were not present in Bagratid Armenia.

The school in the Polish Children Camp of Balachadi-Jamnagar began to function in September 1942, when the second transport of Polish refugees arrived in India from Ashgabat. On March 27, 1944 its name was determined as the St. Andrew Bobola Public Primary School, with kindergarten, fifteen classes of primary school and one class of lower secondary school offered at the beginning. This article argues that as educational and cultural activities became extremely important for Polish children, the attitudes of their teachers and tutors helped to create a sense of community, patriotism and love for the homeland.
Żołnierze żydowscy w armii austro-węgierskiej podczas I wojny światowej
Authors: Baczkowski Michal
Published: January 2022

The military service of Jewish soldiers during World War I caused controversies, with the term“Jew” itself being problematic. In Austria-Hungary, a Jewish nationality was not recognized, andthe only criterium of identification was a declaration of practicing religion (Judaism). This isnot a problem for establishing the number of Jewish privates, but it disrupts the statistics of theofficer corps, where it was common to abandon Judaism. In the Austro-Hungarian Army, Jewshad the ability to acquire higher officer ranks (general), but in practice, this was only applicableto Jews assimilated to German culture. The percentage of Jews among reserve officers was higherthan average due to their high level of education. According to data from 1910, Jews constituted3.1% of all privates in the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. World War I took the lives of about25,000 Austro-Hungarian Jews, i.e. about 8.3% of all followers of Judaism mobilized to the army.This was a percentage slightly lower than for Christians, which became fodder to anti-Semitism.Jewish soldiers showed loyalty to the state and did not engage in military rebellions in 1918. After the war, the memory of Jewish soldiers was not cultivated in the Austro-Hungarian monarchy’s successor states. In contrast to Germany, however, they were not accused of acting to undermine the empire’s military potential during World War I.
Polscy antymilitaryści i pacyfiści u progu I wojny światowej
Authors: Kasprzycki Remigiusz
Published: January 2022

Na początku XX wieku wśród Polaków żyjących w trzech państwach zaborczych znaleźć można było nielicznych radykalnych zwolenników antymilitaryzmu, a także nieco większą grupę zwolenników pacyfizmu. Latem 1906 roku w Warszawie za zgodą władz rosyjskich powstało Polskie Stowarzyszenie Przyjaciół Pokoju, W XX wieku pierwsze rodzime, a zarazem umiarkowane stowarzyszenie pacyfistyczne, które propagowało na ziemiach polskich światowy pokój. W latach 1910–1911 organizacje o podobnej społeczno-politycznej proweniencji, choć jeszcze mniej liczne utworzono w Krakowie. W Warszawie, jak i Krakowie sympatycy pacyfizmu wywodzili się ze środowisk inteligenckich, kręgów konserwatywno-ziemiańsko-endeckich. W miarę zbliżania się wybuchu I wojny światowej współpraca warszawskich jak i krakowskich pacyfistów stawała się coraz trudniejsza. Program tej nielicznej grupy zwolenników pokoju nigdy nie zyskał szerokiego poparcia społecznego. Po zakończeniu I wojny światowej kręgi konserwatywne, ziemiańskie, a zwłaszcza narodowych demokratów całkowicie zdystansowały się od idei pacyfizmu.
Effects of Threatening Government Communication about COVID-19 on Health Protection Measures
Authors: Saumer Melanie , Stubenvoll Marlis , Matthes Jörg
Published: January 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic is one of the biggest crises of the 21st century. This paper investigates the role of reactance-based perceptions of threatening government communication on (1) attitudinal outcomes regarding acceptance of the COVID-19 health protection measures and (2) behavioral outcomes regarding adherence to the COVID-19 measures. From a theoretical perspective, reactance theory suggests that subjectively detecting (a) one-sidedness, (b) fear appeals, (c) discreditation, and (d) overload in government communication might lead to less acceptance and adherence of the health protective measures. Using an Austrian two-wave panel survey (N = 911) collected in August and October 2020, the hereby proposed main effects were supported by applying a Structural Equation Model (SEM). This emphasizes the importance of sensitive government health communication in order to avoid reactant attitudes and behavior, since acceptance and adherence to the COVID-19 measures help combat this pandemic and can possibly decrease fatality rates. Further implications are discussed.
Opting out of News

Published: January 2022

With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, we also saw an “Infodemic”. The WHO argues that both the amount and the varying degree of trustworthiness of available information about COVID-19 has become difficult to handle. As a result, people might avoid the news altogether. News avoidance refers to turning away from the news – either because of an interest for other content or due to a negative perception of news. Empirical research on news avoidance is scarce and suffers from an inconsistent definition of the concept. Also, news avoidance has hardly been considered in the context of the pandemic. In light of these gaps in research, the current study wants to investigate the role of news avoidance during COVID-19 in Austria, explain its relevance based on data by Google Trends and the Austrian Corona Panel and summarize findings on predictors that help to understand the phenomenon. Findings show an increased interest in news at the beginning of the first and second wave of the pandemic. Further, 70% of the Austrian population show some intentional news avoidance which might be explained by a lack of trust in news and emotional struggles related to the crisis. Implications for future research are discussed.

The ferric oxide nanoparticles (Fe2O3) which are deposited at interface which is related to hole collecting buffer layer [poly(3,4-ethyl-enedioxythiophene): poly(styrene-sulfonate) (PEDOT: PSS)] as well as regioregular poly(3-hexyl-thiophene): Zinc oxide nanoparticles (P3HT): (ZnO) active layer have been considerable increasing the performance of solar cell. Also, the solar cell devices have been fabricated with a weight ratio of 1:0.7, 1:0.8, 1:0.9 and 1:1 of P3HT and ZnO, respectively. In addition, photo physical characteristics regarding such devices with different value of the weight ratio were examined. This work is indicating that the absorption spectrum related to blend will be broad with varying ratios that was extremely required for the devices of the organic solar cells. Furthermore, the film morphology was estimated via atomic force microscope (AFM). EQE (i.e. External quantum efficiency) and XRD patterns measures were achieved for the optimal device, while the improvement in the efficiency with regard to a device with 1:1 was more considerable compared to 1:0.90, 1:0.80 as well as 1:0.70 values of weight ratio of P3HT and ZnO. With different weight ratio values, a solar cell upon (1:1) provides PCE (i.e. Power Conversion Efficiency) of 4.1%, dissimilar to 3.92% for (1:0.9), 3.9% for (1:0.8) and 3:6% devices.

The aim of this study was to evaluate liver resection techniques, increase regeneration and to predict complication after hepatectomies. Results of liver resection in the 165 patients and of the different treatment modalities in the 70 rabbits were analysed. Indication for liver resection was hepatocellulary carcinoma (87), metastasis (27), living-related liver transplantation, hemangioma (17), hydatid cysts (4) and others. Of these 165 patients 59 had concomitant cirrhosis and 54 had chronic hepatitis. A comparative studies of the methods of parenchyma dissection, such as clamp-crashing- CC (in the 45 patients), ultrasonic dissector – CUSA (in the 64 patients) and combined use of the CUSA and argon beam coagulation –CUSA+AC (in the 56 patients) were carried out. Results showed that in patients with associated parenchyma disease the CUSA have no advantage over the CC technique in terms of resection time. CUSA+AC decreased blood loss, operation time, transfusion requirements, portal clamping time and morbidity (from 51,7% to 19,5%) in comparison to the CC and CUSA. So, CUSA+AC seemed to be an effective technique for parenchyma dissection in the both normal and fibrotic livers. Comparative study of the different modalities of the He-Ne laser irradiation (irradiation of the liver, portal blood and intravascular blood) and dalargin in the hepatecomized animals showed that combined use of the intravascular blood laser irradiation and dalargin (BLI+D) increase liver regeneration, decrease hepatocyte injury and restore hepatic function abnormalities. The BLI+D method was used in the 76 hepatectomized patients. Results showed that BLI+D increase regeneration rate, decrease time for restoration of the postresectional functional abnormalities, hepatocyte injury and morbidity from 39,6% to 25,4%. Multivariate analyses showed that four of the 58 studied values have independent prognostic significance only: cirrhosis, preoperative bilirubin, parenchyma resection rate, and intraoperative indocyanin green index (ICG). The ICG test was designed for measurement of functional capacity of the remnant liver before resection. This test showed high sensitivity (91,3%) and specificity (77,8%) rate in the prediction of postoperative complications.

El objetivo de este artículo fue actualizar tanto el perfil como los indicadores de precariedad laboral de la población asalariada agrícola temporal, estableciendo consideraciones de género y migración, para aportar un panorama y contexto para los estudios contemporáneos del sector. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo a partir de datos de las encuestas CASEN, principalmente 2017 y 2020. En los resultados de perfil obtuvimos un aumento y consolidación de la feminización del trabajo asalariado temporal agrícola, en particular del sector frutícola; un aumento relevante de la extranjerización de la población trabajadora asalariada de la rama, en su interior con preeminencia de población haitiana y venezolana; un leve aumento en el promedio de edad de las mujeres temporeras; y con características de residencia más urbana, al igual que los/as migrantes. En los resultados de indicadores de precariedad se obtuvo desigual acceso a la estabilidad de empleo por sexo, pues las mujeres acceden mayoritariamente a empleos de carácter estacional, a diferencia de los hombres, igual como lo era hace una década; menor protección por condición de mayor informalidad en la población temporera agrícola comparada con la población asalariada total del país, siendo más prominente en los/as migrantes; que podría asociarse a mayor relación con intermediarios tanto de los/as temporeros/as agrícolas, pero más aun de los/as migrantes; mayor desprotección previsional para la vejez de los/as temporeros/as en relación al total de la fuerza laboral; casi nula pertenencia a sindicatos, lo que pone de manifiesto una barrera estructural en cuanto a protección de derechos laborales; y mayores índices de pobreza por ingresos en la rama, confirmando que, tener empleo no garantiza estar fuera de la pobreza, agudizándose esta situación en la población migrante asalariada agrícola para el 2020. Desprotección, inestabilidad y desregulación formarían parte de la normalización de la precariedad del trabajo asalariado agrícola.
Masculinidad y suicidio. Conexiones y posibilidades de transformación desde la terapia narrativa y el teatro del oprimido
Authors: Aponte-González Jhoan Sebastián , Laverde Diana
Published: January 2022

Este estudio tuvo como propósito general comprender la configuración narrativa de la relación entre masculinidad y conducta suicida para movilizarla a través de elementos del teatro del oprimido y la terapia narrativa hacia un devenir de re-existencia y desideologización. Se realizó un estudio de caso único con un hombre de 22 años a través de una estrategia en la que se articularon los elementos mencionados. Entre las conclusiones generales, se destaca una narrativa en la que el participante veía al suicidio como única forma de escapar del sufrimiento generado por la masculinidad hegemónica. Asimismo, se resaltan las posibilidades que generan las articulaciones presentes en la estrategia para comprender y transformar dicha narrativa. Este estudio permite ver la importancia de la perspectiva de género y el teatro del oprimido en el abordaje del suicidio.
Antropologías en Chile. Hacia una agenda de investigación sobre sus desarrollos y desafíos

Published: January 2022

A partir de la revisión, sistematización y análisis métrico de la producción académica metadisciplinaria desarrollada por antropólogos(as) y otros(as) especialistas de las ciencias sociales y humanidades durante el proceso de institucionalización académico-profesional de la antropología en Chile (1954-2021), el presente artículo busca contribuir al establecimiento y caracterización de su corpus escrito así como a la identificación de la trayectoria de las antropologías hechas en Chile, atendiendo a sus principales hitos, temáticas y tendencias. Se reflexiona sobre las áreas de desarrollo disciplinar, sus campos y los procesos de formación y enseñanza, como también sobre los campos disciplinares que no se ven reflejados en este tipo de producción. Se advierte la estrecha relación con el contexto sociopolítico y se concluye que la entrada más tardía al mundo universitario es un factor clave para el desarrollo de la disciplina en los últimos treinta años.

Authors: Espinoza Claudio , Contreras Paula , Campos Luis
Published: January 2022

En esta sexta entrevista del ciclo de conversaciones Antropologías del Sur, cuyo fin es revisar y pensar formas no hegemónicas de la disciplina, se presenta la trayectoria académica, intelectual y profesional de Ana María Oyarce (Temuco, 1954) quien, tras un breve paso por la Universidad de Chile, desarrolló sus estudios de antropología en la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Temuco. La entrevistada nos relata sus últimos años de Educación Media, en pleno gobierno de la Unidad Popular, y cómo allí se gestaron los intereses que van a marcar su vida profesional: el trabajo cercano y colaborativo con las comunidades mapuche y el campo de la salud. Luego recorremos su experiencia como estudiante de antropología en plena dictadura cívico-militar, sus primeros trabajos como profesional, sus estudios de posgrado y profundizamos en el área de trabajo de Ana María y donde ha realizado sus mayores aportes: la antropología médica. En esta línea revisamos sus aportes en antropología visual y su rol como formadora en la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de Chile, su lugar de trabajo. A lo largo de la conversación pueden identificarse con claridad concepciones del quehacer antropológico, vinculadas al carácter político y social de la disciplina, así como su capacidad de mediación intercultural.

The subject of this research is methods of application of terahertz (sub-terahertz) inspection systems for detecting concealed carry weapon, makeshift explosive devices made of nonstandard materials and other prohibited substances. The object of this research is the detection of concealed carry weapon, makeshift explosive devices made of nonstandard materials and other prohibited substances. The authors examine the application of terahertz (sub-terahertz) inspection systems of compact and portal (stationary) types in the integrated security systems. Special attention is given to the options of using these complexes for expanding the capabilities of the subsystems of video monitoring and detection of sabotage and terrorist means. The conclusion is made on the need to develop the tactics for application of the existing systems of personal security screening, the operation of which is based on radio camera imaging in terahertz (sub-terahertz) frequency range. The authors’ special contribution lies in formulation of recommendations that contain the options of using terahertz (sub-terahertz) inspection systems of various types for detecting concealed carry weapon, makeshift explosive devices made of nonstandard materials and other prohibited substances. The acquire results would help to improve the efficiency of organizing the onsite pass control. The scientific novelty consists in fact that the authors are first within the framework of development of the tactic of using terahertz (sub-terahertz) inspection system to develop proposals of implementation of such means as part of the integrated security systems for detecting concealed carry weapon, makeshift explosive devise made of nonstandard materials and other prohibited substances that differ in carrying out the inspection procedures.
“Muslim Shaitans” in the history of Finno-Ugric peoples of Ural and Western Siberia of the XVII century
Authors: Bortnikova Yuliya Aleksandrovna , Naumenko Olga Nikolaevna
Published: January 2022

The subject of this research is the written historical sources that contain the term “Shaitan” and indicate the non-Orthodox nature of its origin in the history and culture of Finno-Ugric population of Ural and Siberia. Methodological framework is comprised of the Frontier Thesis by F. Turner. Historically, the traditional culture of Finno-Ugric peoples of Ural and Siberia was influenced by Muslim and Christian missionaries. Although in the XVII century, retained the influence of the Muslim – descendants of the Kazan and Siberian Khanates, it was also the influence of the Russian Orthodox Church. Such combination substantiated twofold processes in the history of Finno-Ugric peoples. The research employs the comparative-historical method that reveals the degree of Christian and Muslim influence upon the formation of the image of “Shaitan” and its use in the culture of Finno-Ugric peoples. The ehnographic materials collected and published prior to 1917 authored by N. Witsen, G. I. Novitsky, K. F. Karjalainen, and I. N. Smirnov served as the source base for this work. The use of the term “Shaitan” in Finno-Ugric cultures of Ural and Siberia has not been previously associated with the Muslim influence; this approach is implemented for the first time. The authors are also first to publish the field materials, which mention Num-Torum as the “former Muslim god”. The conclusion is made that relatively to the XVII century, there was no single (Christian) method of infiltration of the term “Shaitan” into local cultures, as for a long time, Finno-Ugric peoples of Ural and Western Siberia were under the influence of Muslims. The signs of such influence were replaced by Christianity throughout centuries, and the Islamic norms in the culture of Finno-Ugric peoples gradually faded away.
