Authors: Sikder Md Raisuddin , Khan Md Harunor Rashid
Published: September 2024

The increasing salinity in coastal areas due to climate change significantly hinders rice (Oryza sativa L.) production, a crucial food source for over half of the global population. This study evaluates the effects of organic amendments and moisture conditions on the vegetative growth and yield of rice varieties in a saline field in the Khulna district of Bangladesh. The field experiment was conducted from February to May 2020, using rice straw compost (RSC), sawdust (SD), rice husk (RH), and mustard seed meal (MSM) at varying rates (0, 5, 10, 15 t ha-1) under moist (70% soil moisture) and saturated (>100% soil moisture) conditions. The experiment featured BRRI dhan 28 (salt-sensitive) and BRRI dhan 47 (salt-tolerant) varieties. Key metrics evaluated in the study included the productive to unproductive tillers ratio (PTR), spikelet sterility, percent filled grains, straw yield, and grain yield. Results indicated significant (p ≤0.05) improvements in PTR, reduction in spikelet sterility, increased grain filling, and higher straw and grain yields with applying organic amendments, especially MSM. The highest PTR for BRRI dhan 47 (0.86) was achieved with MSM at 5 t ha-1 under moist conditions, while BRRI dhan 28 reached a PTR of 0.81 with RH at 10 t ha-1 under saturated conditions. Spikelet sterility was minimized (9/panicle) with MSM at 5 t ha-1 under saturated conditions for both varieties. Percent filled grains peaked (88.9%) with MSM at 5 t ha-1 for BRRI dhan 28. Enhanced straw yields were observed, with BRRI dhan 47 achieving 8.76 t ha-1 with MSM at 10 t ha-1. Grain yield increased significantly, with BRRI dhan 28 yielding 5.75 t ha-1 under similar conditions. The study confirms that organic amendments of MSM > RSC > SD > RH can effectively mitigate salt and moisture stress, thereby improving rice productivity in saline soils.

Published: September 2024

The purpose of the study was to develop a scale for assessing cognitive distortions in Bangladesh and establishing psychometric properties for Bangladeshi population. The scale was named as Bangladesh Cognitive Distortion Scale (BCDS). Items were constructed through three stages of intensive expert evaluation where 128 respondents participated and both item analysis and factor analysis were undertaken. Finalized BCDS with 39 items was administered to 478 respondents to calculate its psychometric properties. Concurrent validity of BCDS was found 0.828 by calculating correlation between the score of BCDS and clinician’s subjective rating. Predictive validity considering anxiety and depression scale was found 0.756 and 0.841, respectively. Convergent validity (0.670) was confirmed through the correlation between the DAS and BCDS and divergent validity was established by the discriminate value (F=649.564, α<0.01) of clinical and non-clinical groups. Internal consistency reliability of BCDS (Cronbach Alpha- 0.962 and test-retest- 0.890) was found very high. The cut-off point for measuring cognitive distortion by BCDS was found 56 with sensitivity 87% and specificity 88%. According to the percentile norm, total score 56 to 72, 73 to 91, 92 to 109, 110 and above represents the mild, moderate, severe, and profound levels of cognitive distortions respectively. BCDS not only will help both clinicians and researchers to assess cognitive distortions within a short time but also could be used as a valid and reliable outcome measure in cognitive behavior therapy.

Published: September 2024

Currently, the collection and crushing process of fine and coarse aggregate has become costly and transportation time has increased due to the complexity of certain areas in the Peruvian highlands. As a consequence, river aggregate is extracted as a total substitution of fine and coarse aggregate for the preparation of structural concrete, but it is not known for sure if it is totally viable to use this aggregate for the benefit of construction interests. Therefore, the objective of this study is to evaluate the total substitution of fine and coarse aggregate by river aggregate obtained from the city of Cajamarca, Peru, on the mechanical properties of concrete. Concrete specimens were manufactured with fine and coarse aggregate and others with river aggregate from the Huaquillo and Portachuelo quarries, respectively. It is considered the designs of 175 kg/cm2 and 210 kg/cm2, in addition to tests such as slump, unit weight, compressive strength, flexural strength and an analysis of variance (ANOVA) in Tukey's block. An experimental campaign was carried out with cementitious pastes to evaluate the effect on physical and mechanical properties due to the use of river aggregate; the samples containing fine aggregate and coarse aggregate revealed good results in terms of mechanical properties. However, concrete made with river aggregate meets the minimum required theoretical design strength and is suitable to be used as a total substitute, which is a new and important scientific issue to highlight.
Efectos del Cartón y Cerámica Reciclada en las Propiedades del Concreto Hidráulico
Authors: Carpio Bryan , Muñiz Abel
Published: September 2024

El problema del concreto hidráulico en canales abiertos se deriva de factores de diseño, construcción deficiente y condiciones climatológicas adversas que hacen que el concreto sea menos duradero y propenso a desarrollar defectos superficiales que debilitan su resistencia física y mecánica. El estudio analizó el efecto de la ceniza de cartón (CC) y cerámica reciclada (RC) en las propiedades físicas y mecánicas del concreto hidráulico. La investigación fue de diseño experimental, que incluyó ensayos de absorción de agua, permeabilidad, resistencia a la compresión y resistencia a la flexión. Se utilizaron diferentes combinaciones para sustituir el cemento en proporciones de CC 1,5 % + RC 1 %, CC 3 % + RC 2 %, CC 4,5 % + RC 3 %, y CC 6 % + RC 4 %, que luego se compararon con la norma ASTM y una muestra control. Los resultados indicaron una absorción de agua de 0,061 g/s y una permeabilidad de 297,09 g/m2, ambas inferiores. Las mayores resistencias mecánicas a los 7, 14 y 28 días alcanzaron resistencias a compresión de 191,75 ± 1,22 kg/cm2, 274,38 ± 3,06 kg/cm2, 323,34 ± 6,85 kg/cm2, y resistencias a flexión de 31,32 ± 0,04 kg/cm2, 33,23 ± 0,16 kg/cm2 y 35,76 ± 0,31 kg/cm2. Se concluye que la combinación óptima para los ensayos físicos y mecánicos se consigue con la combinación de CC 3 % y RC 2 %; para una mayor cantidad de CC y RC respecto a la muestra óptima, el concreto tiende a deteriorarse y perder resistencia.
THE IMPORTANCE OF PARENTS TO STUDENTS’ ENGLISH LEARNING: THE INFLUENCE OF PARENTING STYLES
Authors: Huang Yanan
Published: September 2024

This study explores the impact of parenting styles on the English learning engagement of non-English major students and examines the mediating role of individual self-control. The research utilized an online survey distributed to 500 non-English major students at SUniversity, with 429 valid responses analysed. The Chinese edition of the Short Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran (S-EMBU-C), the English Learning Engagement Scale, and the Self-Control Scale were employed to measure parenting styles, learning engagement, andself-control, respectively. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to analyse the relationships among these variables. The results revealed that positive parenting styles significantly enhance English learning engagement, while negative parenting styles diminish it. Moreover, individual self-control was found to mediate the relationship between parenting styles and learning engagement, suggesting that students with stronger self-control are more engaged in their English learning. In conclusion, this study underscores the importance of positive parenting in fostering students' learning engagement and highlights self-control as a critical factor in this process. These findings contribute to the understanding of how familial influences and individual traits combine to impact academic performance in non-English major students.

Authors: Yıldırım Durmuş Çağrı , Güran Yumuşak İbrahim , Aksu İzel
Published: September 2024

In this study, the relationship between central bank independence and both inflation rate and inflation uncertainty is examined with the help of panel data analysis for BRICS-T countries, using data for the period 1995-2017. The findings reveal several notable results. First, the study finds a statistically significant and negative relationship between the level of central bank independence and inflation in BRICS-T countries. Consequently, this means that a higher degree of independence is associated with lower inflation rates. Additionally, the study reveals a statistically significant and positive relationship between central bank independence and inflation uncertainty. This shows that inflation uncertainty tends to increase as the level of independence increases. These results shed light on the complex dynamics between central bank independence, inflation, and inflation uncertainty, providing valuable information for policymakers, central banks, and researchers interested in monetary policy effectiveness and macroeconomic stability. It is recommended that future studies investigate the underlying mechanisms driving these relationships and evaluate potential differences across countries and time periods
Nanoparticle synthesis and self-assembly
Authors:   , Brouwer Jacoba Henrica
Published: September 2024

Heterogenous catalysts are important for the production of everyday life products, ranging from plastics to pharmaceuticals and energy. Understanding how to improve these catalyst materials allows for the optimization of these current processes. Therefore, studying catalysts in detail and preparing them with high accuracy is essential. This PhD work focuses on the controlled design of catalytic (support) materials with nanometer-precision. To achieve this level of control, nanoparticles are synthesized and self-assembled into ordered structures. This self-assembly approach offers significant advantages over conventional methods, particularly in controlling the composition, size, location, and distribution of nanoparticles within the catalyst.

In this project, ordered silica and graphene mesoporous support materials were synthesized, and nickel/silica catalyst prepared. For the preparation of self-assembled mesoporous silica, monodisperse silica nanoparticles were prepared with sizes ranging from 5 to 100 nm. The self-assembly of these nanoparticles within drying emulsion droplets resulted in the formation of "supraparticles," which are spherical 3D assemblies of nanoparticles. These supraparticles feature an interconnected 3D mesoporous network with tunable pore size, symmetry, porosity, and surface chemistry. To demonstrate the applicability of mesoporous supraparticles in catalyst preparation, silica supraparticles were impregnated with nickel to create a nickel/silica catalyst for hydrogenation reactions. Additional synthesis control was achieved through colloidal synthesis of catalytically active nickel nanoparticles. For example, bimetallic nickel-palladium nanoparticles were studied using in situ electron microscopy, revealing that the atoms within these nanoparticles could shift between alloy and core-shell arrangements in response to reducing and oxidizing environments. Such rearrangement of atoms strongly effects the catalytic properties. Another material that was prepared is porous graphene, made using supraparticles of iron oxide nanoparticles as templates in the production ordered mesoporous graphene. The pore properties were controlled by the size and shape of the iron oxide nanoparticles used, and resulted in the production of new graphene materials.

The ordered catalyst (support) materials presented in this thesis are highly suitable for systematic catalyst optimization. The detailed synthesis and electron microscopy characterization moreover demonstrates that nanoparticle synthesis and self-assembly enable the precise tailoring of catalysts at the nanometer scale.

In crisis conditions, social capital has a positive impact on the resilience of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). However, this group becomes vulnerable due to various changes in the local economy, including MSME actors from the Women's Group. Therefore, it is important to ensure their resilience through its social capital elements. This study aims to describe the social capital elements of women's groups in the context of MSME actors, especially in the Warumusio Terminal area of Baubau City. This research uses a type of qualitative research, which is conducted through a descriptive approach. The determination of research informants was carried out through purposive sampling assisted by snowball sampling to find the uniqueness of the group's social capital, so that informants were selected from MSME groups, the Village Government and several relevant stakeholders. Furthermore, the data were analyzed through qualitative analysis rules and presented descriptively and systematically in explaining the typology of each element of social capital. This study found that the social capital of Warumusio Terminal MSMEs inwardly is stronger than outward social capital, so that the vulnerability of the group can be identified from the way the group builds cooperation networks with other groups. Therefore, in the context of MSMEs Warumusio Terminal social capital such as trust, norms and cooperation is effective. This research suggests that building the resilience of women's groups in MSME actors can be done through empowerment based on institutional strengthening and cooperation.

Published: September 2024

Tarihî gelişim seyri içinde farklı kültürel çevrelerin etkisiyle değişimler yaşamış olan Türk dili, yabancı unsurların dile girmesiyle sadece söz varlığı olarak değil söz yapımı konusunda da bu kültürlerin etkisinde kalmıştır. Doğrudan Çağataycaʻnın temsilcisi olan Özbekçe; Tacikçe, Arapça ve Farsçaʻnın büyük oranda etkilediği Türk lehçelerindendir. Yapısı gereği sondan eklemeli bir dil olan Türk dilinde ön eklerle türetim yapılmaz. Ancak alla-, bad-, ba-, bar-, be-, bo-, no-, ser-, ham, kam, xush, gʻayri ile türetilen sözcüklerin Özbekçenin söz varlığında yer aldığı görülmüştür. Söz yapımında kullanılan bu ön ekler, Özbekçenin etkileşim halinde olduğu özellikle Tacikçe ve Farsçadan dile giren gramatikal unsurlardır. Örneğin badavlat ⁓ davlatli (zengin, müreffeh), baquvvat ⁓ quvvatli (kuvvetli, güçlü) gibi sözcükler Tacikçeden dile giren ba- ön ekiyle türetilmiş ve -li ekinin görevlerini üstlenmiştir. İsimlere getirilen bu ön ek sahip olma anlamı taşır. Aynı şekilde inkâr ve olumsuzluk bildiren no- ön eki isimlerden önce getirilerek noumid (ümitsiz), nohaq (haksız), notinch (huzursuz) gibi sözcükler türetir. Bu ek Özbekçede -siz ekine karşılık gelir. Ya da ser- ön ekiyle türetilmiş olan sersuv (sulak, sulu), sershovqin (gürültülü), serhosil (yüksek verimli) gibi sözcükler bolluk, çokluk anlamı taşır. ser- ön eki üzerine getirildiği ismin miktarı ile ilgili bilgi verir. Bu ön ek Özbekçede –li ve –dor eklerinin görevini üstlenir. Özbekçede ek olma özelliği gösteren bu unsurlardan bazılarının birer sözcük olduğu da görülür. Çalışmamızda Özbekçe söz yapımına dâhil edilen ve bu yabancı unsurlarla türetilen sözcüklerdeki anlam özellikleri ele alınacaktır.

Dijitalleşme insan ve toplum hayatının tüm pratik ve alışkanlıklarını değiştirip dönüştüren bir gelişme olarak karşımıza çıkar. Bu dönüşüm, kaçınılmaz olarak insanı ve toplumu işleyen edebi üretimi de etkilemiştir. Klasik dönemde tefrika romanlar matbu yayınlarla (gazete ve dergilerle) okuruyla buluşurken, günümüzde ekranlar vasıtasıyla (dijital platformlarla) okura ulaşmaktadır. 2006 yılında Kanada’da kurulan Wattpad adlı şirket, edebi üretim alanında bu geleneği sürdürerek adından sıkça söz ettirmeyi başarmıştır. Şirket, geleneksel yayıncılığın süzgecine takılan dezavantajlı kesimlerin ürettikleri kurguları, kişisel yayıncılık bağlamında yayımlamalarına olanak sağlamıştır. Böylece platform, kendi web sitesinde de belirttiği gibi geleneksel yayıncılık anlayışının yarattığı cam tavanları ve görünmez duvarları yıkma amacını da sunduğu kişisel yayıncılık hizmetiyle hayata geçirmiştir. Wattpad, dünyada ve Türkiye’de özellikle kadın yazarların görünürlük alanı olarak kabul ettiği bir platformdur. Okuyucuları genel olarak Y ve Z kuşağından olan platformun, görüntülenme süreleri, bilinen birçok sosyal medya mecrasıyla benzerdir. Bu çalışma, yazarların eserlerini paylaşma biçimi ve işlediği temalar bakımından Wattpad’in, klasik döneme ait tefrika roman türüyle benzerliklerini ortaya koymakta ve incelemektedir. Platformun klasik dönemdeki yayın şeklini dijital dönemin şartlarına uygun olarak yeniden üretmesi temel alınarak, Wattpad’i tanımlamak için dijital/e-tefrika roman kavramı ileri sürülmektedir. Jürgen Habermas’ın Söylemsel Kamusal Alan kuramına dayandırılan siyasal tarihteki süreçlerle sanal dünyanın Web 1.0 ile 4.0 arasında kat ettiği aşamalar benzerlik gösterir. Gerçek ile sanal dünyanın tarihsel gelişiminin kesişim noktasında karşımıza roman/tefrika roman ve Wattpad çıkar. Kuramda sunulan tarihsel izlekte, “saray” ile “şehir” arasındaki gerilimden doğan burjuva kamusu kadını dışlarken; edebi kamuda kadınlar, yazar değil okur olarak yoğunluktadır. Kadın okurların, kadın yazarlara dönüşmesi ve görünürlük kazanmaları feminist eleştiri ile birlikte gerçekleşir. Günümüzde de bu görünürlük Wattpad gibi platformlar kullanılarak sürdürülmektedir.

İnsanlık tarihi incelendiğinde ilkel kabilelerden büyük imparatorluklara varıncaya değin örgütlenmiş insan topluluklarının tamamında, mahiyeti değişmekle beraber çeşitli eğlence faaliyetlerinin yer aldığı gözlemlenebilir. Osmanlı Devleti’nde muhtelif sebeplerden ötürü günlerce süren eğlenceler tertip edilmiş; devlet bu vesile ile geniş halk kitlelerinin eğlenmesini sağlamakla birlikte, bunu azametini ve kudretini sergileme fırsatı olarak da değerlendirmiştir. Bu tarz eğlenceler genellikle Osmanlı Devleti’nin başkenti olan İstanbul’da düzenlenmiş ve düzenlenen eğlencelerde hokkabaz ve canbazların da dahil olduğu pek çok gösteri grubu hünerlerini sergilemek suretiyle izlemeye gelen halkı eğlendirmekle görevlendirilmiştir. Çalışmada bu tarz büyük organizasyonların yanı sıra daha küçük mekanlarda, sınırlı halk kitlelerine hitaben gösteri düzenleyerek mesleklerini icra eden hokkabaz ve canbazlar üzerinde durulmuştur. Osmanlı eğlence hayatının önemli unsurlarından olan hokkabaz ve canbazların düzenledikleri gösterilerin teferruatları incelenmiş; bunlardan bilhassa hokkabazların, büyük konaklarda yapılan sünnet merasimlerinin yanı sıra devletin ihtiyaç sahibi çocuklar adına düzenlediği sünnet merasimlerinin de önemli bir parçası durumuna geldiği anlaşılmıştır. Konu ile alakalı arşiv vesikaları incelendiğinde İstanbul’un, hokkabaz ve canbazların uğrak yerlerinden biri olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Araştırma dönemi olan XIX. yüzyılın geneli ile XX. yüzyılın başlarında muhtelif ülkelerden çok sayıda hokkabaz ve canbaz İstanbul’da gösteri düzenleyebilmek adına yetkili mercilere başvuruda bulunmuştur. Her iki grubun yapmış olduğu başvurular değerlendirilmiş, karşılaştıkları sorunlara değinilmiş, gösteri düzenleyebilecekleri mekanlar ve ayrıca süreç ile alakalı diğer detaylar irdelenmiştir.

Published: September 2024

Osmanlı Devleti’nin Birinci Dünya Savaşı’na katılım sürecinde de işgale uğrayan ilk yer Bayazıt şehri olmuş ve buranın işgal edilmesiyle başlamıştır. 31 Ekim 1914’te Ruslar Bayazıt’ın kuzeyinde Osmanlı topraklarına giriş yapmış; Kars ve Ardahan’la birlikte Bayazıt Rus mezalimine uğrayan Anadolu’nun ilk toprakları olmuştur. Kuzeyden saldırıya geçen Rus ordusu Bayazıt, Muson ve Cilli gediklerine saldırı başlatmış ve Osmanlı ordusunu bozguna uğratarak Bayazıt, Taşlıçay, Diyadin, Karaköse, Eleşkirt'in işgaliyle sürmüş, akabinde Aladağa’a yerleşerek devam etmiştir. 1915 yılının sonlarına doğru hemen hemen bütün Bayazıt ve buraya bağlı bütün kazalar işgal edilmiştir. Üç yıl süren İşgal süreci, bölge halkları için tam bir mezalime dönüşerek bölge Rus ordusu ve Ermeni çetelerinin eline geçmiştir. Rus ordusunun Anadolu topraklarını işgali, 1917 Bolşevik İhtilali sonrasında Rus tarafının buradan çekilmesiyle sonuçlanmıştır. Ancak bu dönemde Osmanlı Devleti’nin Mondros Mütarekesi’ni imzalamak zorunda kalması ve bölgede askeri varlığın zafiyete uğraması ile Müslüman ahali Ermeni çetelerinin hedefi haline gelmiştir. Bunun sonucu olarak da korumasız kalan halk Ermenilerin yoğun tazyiklerine maruz kalmıştır. Kazım Karabekir Paşa’nın yaptığı askerî harekâtın neticesinde Ermeniler Gümrü civarında yenilgiye uğratılarak bölgeden uzaklaştırılmış Bayazıt, Kars ve Ardahan bölgesi yeniden Türkiye’ye katılmıştır. Bu olayların neticesinde 16 Mart 1921 Moskova ve 13 Ekim 1921 Kars Antlaşmaları ile mevcut Türk-Sovyet sınırı çizilmiştir. “Bayazıt’ın İşgallerden Kurtuluş Süreci ve Milli Mücadele Dönemi’ndeki Durumu” adlı makalenin hazırlanmasındaki temel amaç, Kurtuluş Savaşı yıllarında burada yaşanan gelişmeleri ve halkın bağımsızlığın elde etmek amacıyla vermiş olduğu mücadeleyi ayrıntılı bir biçimde ortaya çıkarmaktır. Bu yolla Milli Mücadele yıllarında Erzurum eyaletine bağlı olan Bayazıt sancağında bağımsızlık uğrunda nelerin yapılmış olduğunun ortaya çıkarılması hedeflenmektedir.

Then a paper review is done in order to see the shortcomings of previous research so that improvements can be made to make the discussion more structured, starting from planning to implementation. The limitation of this research is the examples of articles presented are different from the conditions that exist in each country so there needs to be  a critical understanding of the government system in the examples that are used as references. Other than that, special considerations are needed in determining equations and new discoveries from articles that are used as reference to develop the main idea according to the chosen topic and title.

"Roots of Renewal" is a five-week Biodesign internship program created to address the need for interdisciplinary education for Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) youth in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. By taking on an equity lens, the project challenges traditional educational pathways available to AAPI youth and encourages greater participation of communities of color and underrepresented youth in science, art, and biodesign. The internship program employs a community-driven education model that cultivates ongoing curiosity by providing out-of-school workshops in various spaces within the local vicinity of students, expanding their knowledge and appreciation of their local community. The concept of community is further solidified through collaborations with organizations such as the Asian American Arts Alliance, Chinese-American Planning Council, Genspace, ArtBuilt, and New York Mycological Society. Foundational knowledge of biodesign is introduced to the students through an integrative, collaborative, and reflective teaching pedagogy that prioritizes hands-on experiences over didactic courses. The program includes a workshop on sterile lab techniques, mushroom cloning, and sculpting with mycelium. Additionally, students participate in an educational walk where they identify mushrooms and collect samples for a DNA barcoding experiment. Each session is accompanied by written reflections prompting students to explore their AAPI identity, connections to their community, observations of the scientific and natural world, and art. Students will collaborate on an art piece by growing and assembling mycelium sculptures and creating a zine. The internship culminates in an art showcase which provides students the space to engage their peers and guests and share insights from the program.

Futures in Biodesign: Navigating Speculative Realms to Grow a Biodesign Framework (A Student's Perspective)
Authors: Singh Gupta Vanshika
Published: September 2024

As an undergraduate Biodesign student at the University of Sydney, my work reflects the integration of biological design principles through a 13-week unit. This study emphasizes key concepts including Biophilia and Mimicry, which leverage nature's influence on design, and explores the challenges of incorporating biological technologies through Methodology and Morphological Problems. It also addresses Materiality by analyzing biological materials and their ecosystem impacts, and integrates planning for ecological interactions akin to UI/UX design. Ethical considerations are central, with a focus on creating sustainable and regenerative designs within the Anthropocene. The intersection of Design vs. Science, alongside considerations of Synthetic Biology and its commercial applications, shapes the framework for developing biodesign artifacts. My practical application of these concepts is demonstrated through the development of a mycelium-grown coffee cup, inspired by Joseph Dahmen’s research on mushroom-based biocomposites. This project embodies speculative design methodologies by utilizing living materials that adapt and contribute positively to ecosystems. It underscores a shift towards regenerative manufacturing processes and anticipates future possibilities in biodesign, aligning with contemporary ecological and ethical standards while pushing the boundaries of biological design.
Русько-половецький конфлікт у билинному епосі
Authors: Агафонова Надія
Published: September 2024

Літописи – основне джерело презентації руської державності IХ-ХIII ст. Акцентований писемний ресурс – рефлексія на державотворчий процес лише двох найбільших феодалів тогочасся: князя та церкви. Билини – епічний формат реакції на той-таки процес тієї частини соціуму, яка виявляла спротив ініціативам Рюриковичів: змінити власника землі, зруйнувавши традиційно діючий принцип общинного землеволодіння; замінити звичаєве право на кодифіковане, централізувати владу шляхом заміни демократично обраних князів у контексті того чи іншого племені на посадника Києва, збільшити оподаткування, увівши десятину; надати християнству статус державної релігії, викорінивши язичництво.
Билини – епічний відбиток конфлікту між соціальними силами, що виробляли фарватер державності і соціальною більшістю, яка переживала втрату прав і свобод у ході встановлення нового формату суспільної практики. Вся опонуюча (автохтонна!) маса «прочитується» за політонімом «половці» у значенні «захисники». Билинний епос – презентант русько-половецького протистояння.
Формування 45-ї стрілецької дивізії РСЧА на півдні України: руйнація «червоного» військового будівництва (червень-серпень 1919 р.)
Authors: Савченко Віктор
Published: September 2024

У червні 1919 р. радянська Україна втратила останній примарний символ «автономії» – військові з’єднання, що мали назву «радянські українські армії» та були об’єднані назвою «Український фронт». Навесні 1919 р. значна частина цих з’єднань та українське селянство підняли повстання проти колоніальної політики «червоної» влади. Ці повстання зруйнували «червоні» тили та привели до того, що влада більшовиків зберігалася тільки у губернських центрах. До своїх каральних акцій проти населення влада намагалася залучити залишки частин «українського фронту», що перетворювалися на загальномосковські частини, втрачаючи свої «українські» ознаки.
3-тя Українська радянська армія перетворилася на «загальномосковську» 45-ту радянську стрілецьку дивізію (близько 12 тисяч багнетів і шабель), якою керували навіть не військові, а група аферистів, частина з яких мали кримінальне минуле (командир бригади Г. Котовський, командир полку М. Вінницький).
У 45-й стрілецький дивізії, під час її формування на Півдні України (червень-серпень 1919 р.), панував загальний хаос, частини виявилися «ненадійними», та самі часто виступали проти червоної влади. У розграбуванні державних скарбниць взяли активну участь вищі посадовці 45-ї стрілецький дивізії. Залишки цієї дивізії могли повноцінно змагатися тільки зі стихійними, погано озброєними селянськими повстанцями. Системна криза влади в Україні влітку 1919 р. привела до краху «військової» політики більшовиків в Україні, до блискавичного наступу армії УНР та армій генерала Денікіна, до майже повної втрати червоною владою українських теренів.
Гімназійна освіта за автобіографіями єврейських дівчат України кінця 19 – початку 20 ст.: мотивація, доступність, значущість
Authors: Drach Oksana , Babak Oksana
Published: September 2024

Мета статті – з’ясувати значущість гімназійної освіти як складника підготовки єврейських дівчат кінця 19 – початку 20 ст. в Україні за їхніми автобіографіями. Зокрема, виявити чинники й обставини, що у(не)можливлювали здобуття повної середньої освіти, реконструювати ставлення батьків до ґрунтовної освіти доньок, з’ясувати важливість навчання в гімназії для самоідентифікації єврейських дівчат.
Наукова новизна результатів дослідження полягає у з’ясуванні ролі гімназійної освіти як складника підготовки єврейських доньок через деконструкцію їхньої автобіографічної свідомості, що поглиблює соціокультурні характеристики жіночої особистості модерної доби.
Висновки. Нові погляди щодо соціалізації доньок поширюються в єврейських родинах України, професійна підготовка яких мала стати підсумком їхнього навчання й основою самостійних заробітків. Загальна стратегія акультурації реалізується частиною юдейських родин через навчання доньок у найближчих закладах початкової освіти – народних училищах. Результатами початкового навчання єврейських учениць було поглиблення внутрішнього потенціалу, формування дисциплінованості, навичок соціальної взаємодії з іншими.
Більшість єврейських дівчат (61,1%) оминули етап відвідування початкової школи. Батьки націлювали доньок на вступ до закладу середньої освіти – жіночої гімназії, чому передувала ґрунтовна підготовка до вступного іспиту. Доведено, що близько ⅓ єврейських доньок змогли скористатися повним курсом гімназійної освіти (І-VІІ класи). Встановлено чинники, що скорочували перебування дівчат-юдейок у гімназії. Зокрема, непланована батьками гімназійна освіта доньки; проживання у віддаленому містечку; труднощі зі вступом до місцевої гімназії; провал на вступному іспиті до закладу.
Автобіографічна свідомість єврейських дівчат підтверджує усвідомлення ними панівних культурних патернів епохи щодо необхідності вчитися, а цілеспрямовані дії на здобуття гімназійного свідоцтва через самоосвіту засвідчують його високу соціальну мотивацію та культурну значущість. Омріяний атестат жіночої гімназії ставав перепусткою до іншого, кращого світу, і символізував для його власниць дійсний духовний прорив – не лише за смугу постійної єврейської осілості, а й за рамки традиційного світу, обмеженого для жінки лише домом і дітьми.

Introduction

This article offers an analysis of environmental communication (EC) and citizen science (CS) in the context of Environmental Monitoring and Assessment (EMA) for the implementation of Sustainable Development Goal 15 (Life on Land) in Chile and Sweden.

Methods

The paper is based on fieldwork in two rural study areas of Chile and Sweden where we followed different CS initiatives in relation to EMA and Agenda 2030. We conducted interviews, analyzed documentation and conducted an SDG mapping workshop to understand the implementation of SDG 15 in these two rural forest settings.

Results

Our findings suggest that CS has potential as a democratic innovation for environmental governance in both countries. However, we also found important barriers to the legitimacy of CS as a feature of EMA and local environmental governance in both countries. The paper situates CS in the wider governance and environmental communication processes in regional politics surrounding implementation of national policies for the use of natural resources.

Discussion

The article offers new insights into the barriers and possibilities for public participation in environmental governance and policy at local levels, by addressing the interlinkages between environmental communication and citizen science in rural settings.
