Transformation of the educational paradigm in the context of the formation of academic leadership and the development of transprofessionalism
Authors: Vodenko K. V.
Published: December 2023

The study substantiates the need to change educational paradigms in accordance with the new challenges of the time and the emergence of the phenomenon of academic leadership and the advent of the era of transprofessionals. The purpose of this work is related to the study of the phenomena of academic leadership and transprofessionalism, their role in the development of the modern educational paradigm. The article analyzes mainly the university sector, in which the development of academic leadership and transprofessionalism is taking place. The results obtained allow us to identify the main directions of development of the existing education system and the role of academic leadership and transprofessionalism in it. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the totality of the results obtained, revealing the features of academic leadership and transprofessionalism, their influence on the change of educational paradigms. It is concluded that academic leadership can be achieved subject to both the introduction of innovative technologies into the educational process and the implementation of a set of measures aimed at preserving the fundamental knowledge that a graduate must master. Therefore, it is necessary to consider academic leadership in the context of the strategic perspective of maintaining Russia’s status as the largest scientific power in the modern world. The phenomenon of transprofessionalism acts as an adequate response from the point of view of leading educational institutions to the challenges of technological change characteristic of the modern era
“I wish I hadn’t seen the Krylov Monument…”: On an entry in Taras Shevchenko’s diary from 1858
Authors: Liamina E. E. , Samover N. V.
Published: December 2023

Taras Shevchenko’s diary of 1857–1858, a well-known and even iconic text, remains poorly commented and conceptualized to an even lesser degree. This despite the fact that it describes and interprets one the most important periods in Shevchenko’s life. When his exile ended, he returned to St. Petersburg and to artistic production, became extremely popular as a key figure of Ukrainian nation-building. The article intends to demonstrate, on the example of one extended entry from April 30th, 1858, how a multifaceted commentary reveals the wide problematics of this diary. To achieve this goal, the first monographic commentary to the named entry was compiled, reconstructing and examining numerous contexts of that day, such as the historical, the biographical, the artistic, the urban, and the ideological. As a next step, the plots identified were interpreted within the framework of the optics of transition underscored by Shevchenko himself. The results of the study are: explication of several obscure or unnoticed passages; revelation of multicentered conflict as a main line of the text (“former I” vs “actual I”; Art vs state/Church; sacred Art vs. ignoble naturalism); analysis of structure and poetics of the entry. The emotional scenario of the day is explicated as developing from discontent to annoyance, then from disappointment to rage and indignation. The study demonstrates which rhetorical patterns are used and how the author defines himself by two symbolic figures, Karl Bryullov and Ivan Krylov. Painter and poet, respectively, they represent Shevchenko’s double-sided avatar, and also serve as tools for analysis of his traumatic past strongly influencing a new stage of his biography.
Ut pictura poesis: Visual rhetoric in Homeric controversy of the early 18th century
Authors: Neklyudova M. S.
Published: December 2023

During 1714–1716, a stormy, if short-lived, polemic broke out in France over Homer and his place in the literary canon. Its participants debated how his works should be assessed and how they should be translated, verbatim or freely. Homer’s opponents, led by Houdar de La Motte, pointed to the immorality of Homeric heroes, their stubbornness and cruelty; they also dwelled on the compositional flaws of his poems, showing their incompatibility with modern aesthetic standards. For their part supporters of the ancient poet, led by Madame Dacier, insisted on the historical and cultural distance which separated the works of Homer from modernity, and argued that they could not be evaluated according to the standards of another era. In this exchange of opinions, both sides used the same topoi and figures of speech because they were engaged in public controversy and therefore competed in rhetoric. The article considers one such topos, which equates Homer with an artist — a sculptor or a painter — and treats his writings as sculptures or paintings. This equation represents an interesting twist on the traditional saying ‘ut pictura poesis’, and is used by both parties, but for different purposes and with varying rhetorical effectiveness.
Block Scheduling for LARC in a Family Medicine Residency Program
Authors: Callen Elisabeth F. , Na'Allah Rahmat , Lewis Artis , Kerns James , Hester Christina M.
Published: December 2023

Background and Objectives: Only 20% of family physicians report providing long-acting reversible contraception (LARC). Clinician-related barriers include confidence and comfort with LARC counseling and insertion/removal, and limited availability and uptake. Training during residency may address barriers and increase access/availability of LARC to support reproductive autonomy. We sought to determine the impact of block scheduling LARC clinics on resident comfort and confidence with LARC counseling and insertion/removal.
Methods: LARC block schedules were established in a Midwest family medicine residency’s primary clinic (FMC) and in a federally qualified health center rotation clinic. Baseline and end-of-study surveys, compared by Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, were used to assess comfort and confidence with counseling and inserting LARC. The number of LARC devices placed at the FMC were collected for the intervention year and the year prior.
Results: Twenty of 30 residents completed the baseline survey; 13 completed the end-of-study survey. At the group and individual levels, comfort increased for counseling on Levonorgestrel (LNG) intrauterine devices (IUDs) and for inserting implants and LNG IUDs. Individual comfort increased for copper IUDs. Resident willingness to recommend LARC increased, and more devices were placed during the intervention year than the year prior in the FMC (all: P<.05).
Conclusions: Block scheduling of LARC clinics was associated with increased residents’ comfort and confidence with counseling and placement of implants (LNG IUDs) and with an increase in LARCs placed at one clinic. Changes to scheduling may be an effective educational strategy that may increase access/availability to LARC.

Semillas de moringa (Moringa oleífera) y almidón de yuca (Manihot esculenta) para la clarificación del agua
Authors: Mercado Martinez Ivan Dario , Riaños Donado Katerine , Meza Leones María Carolina
Published: December 2023

Contextualización: el uso de coagulantes naturales para la clarificación del agua se investiga mundialmente debido a sus bajos costos, alta biodegradabilidad y capacidad de sustituir a los coagulantes sintéticos altamente tóxicos.
Vacío de conocimiento: el agua de la Ciénaga Grande del departamento del Atlántico en Colombia se utiliza para labores de limpieza, consumo y preparación de alimentos por los pobladores de la zona. Sin embargo, no cumple con la calidad del agua para consumo en relación al parámetro turbidez, definida por la Resolución 2115 de 2007; por tal motivo, es importante analizar la sinergia que se genera al emplear la combinación coagulante de semillas de moringa y almidón de yuca, en la búsqueda por mejorar sus condiciones. Es importante destacar que se presentan escasos reportes en la literatura sobre el uso simultáneo de estos coagulantes.
Propósito: la presente investigación tiene como objetivo evaluar la clarificación del agua de la Ciénaga Grande empleando mezclas de coagulantes naturales, conformadas por semillas de moringa y almidón de yuca para reducir su turbidez.
Metodología: las combinaciones de coagulantes, semillas de moringa y almidón de yuca, se mezclaron con una relación 90:10, 80:20, 70:30 y 60:40, respectivamente. Se evaluó la turbidez y el pH al agua de la Ciénaga Grande; además, se simuló su clarificación según la NTC 3903 de 2010 con cada tratamiento; se inició con una agitación a 120 rpm por un tiempo de 1 min, después se realizó por 20 min una agitación a 30 rpm y finalmente, durante 15 min, se dejó sedimentar; después, de cada jarra se extrajo una muestra y se midió la turbidez final; se llevó a cabo un diseño factorial para cada combinación coagulante, con 6 niveles de dosis (mg/L) y una variable respuesta, turbidez final del agua (UNT), utilizando una confiabilidad del 95% se realizó un análisis de varianza ANOVA y el test de Duncan.
Resultados y conclusiones: el tratamiento con mayor remoción de turbidez fue 4 UNT que tiene una relación 60:40 de semillas moringa y almidón de yuca; además, disminuyó este parámetro en 80.4%. Las dosis empleadas en los tratamientos 1, 2 y 3 influyeron sobre la turbidez final del agua. Se concluyó que una turbidez inicial alta aumenta la acción coagulante de la mezcla natural, provocando una mayor remoción de este parámetro.
Evaluación por FTIR de extractos de propóleos de abejas sin aguijón de Bochalema – Norte de Santander
Authors: María Camila María Camila , Chaparro García Amanda Lucía , Torres Sánchez Diana Alexandra
Published: December 2023

Contextualización: El propóleo es producido por las abejas a partir de resinas recolectadas de brotes o exudados de plantas; se emplea para sellar grietas y reducir el riesgo de enfermedades dentro de la colmena. Las propiedades medicinales del propóleo son bien conocidas, reportándose hasta ahora actividades como antimicrobiana, antiinflamatoria, antioxidante y citotóxica.
Vacío de conocimiento: La composición química del propóleo está estrechamente relacionada con la vegetación cercana al sitio de recolección y la especie de abeja que lo produce. En Colombia, el vacío de información en relación con la composición química de propóleos de las abejas nativas sin aguijón es grande, específicamente en el departamento de Norte de Santander.
Propósito: Evaluación por FTIR de extractos etanólicos de propóleos de abejas sin aguijón de las especies: Scaptotrigona sp., Trigona angustula, Frieseomelitta paupera, colectados en Bochalema - Norte de Santander y comparados con el de Apis mellifera.     
Metodología: El propóleo colectado se congeló a -18 ͦC y luego se trituró. Se pesaron 0,25g y se extrajeron con 5ml de etanol al 96 % a temperatura ambiente y se mantuvieron durante dos semanas realizando agitaciones manuales. Posteriormente se procedió a centrifugar, se filtró y se llevó a la incubadora hasta que se eliminó el disolvente. Los espectros ATR-FTIR se obtuvieron en la región de 4000-600 cm-1, resolución 4 cm-1 y 48 scans; se identificaron las bandas donde se muestran las regiones espectrales asociadas a biomoléculas. Posteriormente, se realizó la matriz de datos para el PCA y dendrograma en la región de huella dactilar para orden cero, primera y segunda derivada.
Resultados y conclusiones: Los resultados mostraron que los extractos de todas las especies presentaron bandas que indican la presencia de compuestos fenólicos, hidrocarburos, esteres, además del residuo de cera restante en las muestras. Se concluye que FTIR combinada con quimiometría permiten establecer diferencias y similitudes entre las muestras de propóleos, indicando que las abejas tienen preferencias específicas de las plantas que tienen disponibles para la recolección de las resinas. Adicionalmente, los extractos de Trigona angustula, Frieseomelitta paupera tienen composición similar al de Apis mellifera, y el de la especie Scaptotrigona es diferente.

Predicción de la erosión del suelo mediante random forest: caso de estudio cuenca río grande, Antioquia
Authors: Arango Carvajal Laura Isabel
Published: December 2023

Contextualización: actualmente, el conocimiento de fenómenos naturales asociados a la preservación de los sistemas es de interés tanto para investigadores de las ciencias naturales, como para las autoridades ambientales encargadas de la toma de decisiones sobre el manejo de los recursos. En ese sentido, se ha venido trabajando en la interpretación y predicción de diferentes fenómenos físicos como la erosión, a fin de crear escenarios que permitan fortalecer los criterios de respuesta frente a la conservación del capital natural del suelo.
Vacío de conocimiento: la capacidad de predecir el fenómeno de la erosión es limitada en muchas ocasiones, debido a la cantidad y variabilidad de los parámetros y variables que son relacionados a la erosión. Además, en muchos casos se requiere de un alto procesamiento computacional para lograr que se asocien entre sí.
Propósito: se busca implementar un modelo de machine learning como herramienta alternativa para la modelación y predicción de la erosión.
Metodología: en este estudio, se desarrolla una modelación a partir del entrenamiento del método no paramétrico Random Forest, mediante el aprendizaje supervisado, para predecir la ocurrencia de la erosión en la cuenca de Río Grande, considerando las variables que previamente han sido empleadas en otros métodos para modelar este fenómeno.
Resultados y conclusiones: los resultados mostraron una capacidad para predecir la erosión en la cuenca con una precisión aproximada del 77%, por lo que este método puede ser aplicado para obtener predicciones rápidas y confiables. Además, se encontró que las variables empleadas en el modelo RUSLE explican mayoritariamente la ocurrencia, o no, de la erosión. Finalmente, se resalta la importancia de la variable “temperatura” introducida en el modelo.
Distance, transmission, and journey in the collective construction of an Itaaká
Authors: Bruno Moreschi  , Irineu Nje'a Terena
Published: December 2023

This exhibition discusses the collective construction of an ancestral instrument of the Terena indigenous people in the context of the artistic residency Con/Cri/Tec, held in 2023 at Casa do Povo, in São Paulo. The functions of the itaaká instrument, as well as the process of creating it in the residency, offered decolonial opportunities for understanding the idea of "distance" beyond the non-indigenous scientific view. The first contribution to this expanded understanding of distance comes from the functions of the itaaká, in particular, that of reducing the distance between the terrestrial and the spiritual worlds, based on the idea of "transmission". The second perspective of distance analyzed here came from the experience of building the itaaká, seen in the Terena culture as part of a collective initiation ritual. The making of itaaká performed in the artistic residency showed part of this ritualistic character and how this ancestral instrument relates distance to the idea of collective construction of a "journey".
[text]uring: writing through fashion for a new literacies dissertation
Authors: Rachel Kaminski Sanders
Published: December 2023

The term 'literacy' encompasses reading and writing practices, each with distinct meanings and histories. Scholars define individuals as 'literate' or 'illiterate' based on these practices, a point not to be taken lightly. New literacies studies have expanded literacy from print to encompass all forms of meaning-making, leading to an expansion of associated terminology. In American higher education, despite the expanded meanings of terms like 'writing' and 'text,' the term 'research' remains dominated by written language, even within dedicated disciplines (Coiro et al. 2008; New London Group 1996; Wilber 2008).

Through a cultural studies perspective, I traced the historical evolution of American literacy to the present day. The study revealed darker consequences of literacy's past, providing insights for scholars to understand silenced voices and advocate for their inclusion in the future. Given the ever-expanding practices of literacy, the need for increased attention to writing instruction, and the problematic otherness of arts-based disciplines such as fashion, my goal is to broaden the range of accepted scholarly compositions in higher education. I believe this pursuit is key to the advancement of academic research publications.

To address this paradox, I actively embraced new literacy practices by creating a dissertation supported by Barone & Eisner’s (2012) concept of arts based research. Drawing on my experiences in the industry, I sought to challenge views of fashion as frivolous by writing my dissertation in the language of dress, offering a new perspective on the interwovenness of literacy and fashion. My dissertation argues that fashion is a form of writing by exploring nonverbal communication in scholarly work. This move reconciled the perceived frivolity with the substantive nature of fashion and ignited my commitment to the acceptance of research in diverse language forms.
Designing Games as 'Hands on Research Tools' for Foro No.2 Nodos Activos: 2023
Authors: Yamil Hasbun Chavarría  , Pamela Jiménez Jiménez
Published: December 2023

This exposition recounts the design process behind the creation of a series of games implemented in the second forum of the Active Nodes project (Foro No.2 Nodos Activos), and the experiences obtained during the days in which the the Nodos Team carried out the activities in which the current research activities where materialized as games throughout the various installations of the Artistic Research, Teaching and Extension Center (CIDEA) and its surroundings where the four schools of art and design of the University Nacional, Costa Rica (UNA) converge:
The School of Art and Visual Communication (EACV), Performing Arts (EAE), School of Dance and Music school.

Since the general theme of this Second Nodos Activos forum was ‘Artistic Research through Play’, the participatory research tools developed here actually took the form of a games. Games created to have fun, create expectations, create curiosity, create empathy and friendships and create new artistic constructions through innovative research hands-on processes.

Aside from the researchers in charge of the Nodos Activos project, the creative team in charge of the development, design and ‘put to practice’ work implicit in all these research tools/games included EACV students Karolay Mendoza Castrillo, Marian Casanova Guzmán, Iván Sibaja Segura, and Nicole Barboza Alvarez; and EAE student Adrian Campos Chaves.

The present exhibition recounts the process of game design, while a second exhibition present in this catalog (Titled FORO NO.2 NODOS ACTIVOS, 2023: Artistic Research Through Playing. https://www.researchcatalogue.net/view/2431060/243106) recounts the experience of the process of playing the game itself.
Somut Olmayan Kültürel Miras: Klasik Roma’nın Orta Çağ İngiltere’sindeki Romanslara Yansımaları
Authors: TAFLI DÜZGÜN Hülya
Published: December 2023

Orta Çağda İngiliz edebiyatının yapıtaşlarını edebî bir tür olan romans oluşturur. Ancak günümüzde göz ardı edilen romans, duvarlarla çevrili bir kaleden daha fazlasına tanıklık etmektedir. Orta Çağ İngiltere’sindeki romans, kaleme alındığı dönemdeki kültürü tasvir eder, bazıları ise klasik Yunan ve Roma medeniyetlerini örnek alır ve translatio studii et imperiiyi İngiltere’ye yansıtır. Hem kültür hem de translatio studii et imperii, felsefe, halkbilim ve sosyoloji disiplinleriyle anılmaktadır. Ancak, sözlü kültürden yazılı geleneğe geçiş ve aktarım sırası ve sonrasında dil ile birlikte gelenekleri ve anlatımları anlayabilmek için disiplin olarak edebiyat göz ardı edilmemelidir. Orta Çağ’da İngiltere’de kaleme alınan elyazmalarındaki bazı edebi metinler, özellikle romanslar hem kültürün hem de translatio studii et imperiinin temellerini klasik Yunan ve Roma’dan almaktadır. Translatio studii, nesilden nesile aktarılırken geçmişteki kültüre saygı ve yeniden şekillenen kültürel sahiplenme sürecini gözler önüne serer. Somut olmayan bu kültürel miras günümüze kadar ulaşan elyazmalarındaki edebi metinlerde korunmaktadır. Orta Çağda İngiltere’de kültür edebiyat ile iç içedir. Orta Çağdaki kültürler ve imparatorluklar yetkilerini geçmiş kültürlerden (klasik Yunan ve Roma) alır ve Orta Çağ edebi anlatıları - özellikle de romanslar- kültürün ve translatio studii et imperiinin temsilcisi ya da yansıtıcısı olmaktadır. Bu çalışma, klasik Roma kültürünün, Orta Çağda İngiltere’de yazılan romanslara yansımalarını, nasıl mit ve efsaneye dönüştüğünü, antik bir kültürün yeniden nasıl ve niçin değer gördüğünü gün ışığına çıkarmaktadır.
Alternative stable river bed states at high flow
Authors: Lange Sjoukje Irene de , Vijsel Roeland C. van de , Torfs Paul J. J. F. , Hoitink A.J.F. (Ton)
Published: December 2023

River bedforms influence fluvial hydraulics by altering bed roughness.
With increasing flow velocity, subaqueous bedforms transition from flat
beds to ripples, dunes, and an Upper Stage Plane Bed. Although prior
research notes increased bedform height variation with flow strength and
rapid shifts between bed configurations, the latter remains
understudied. This study reanalyzes data from earlier experiments, and
reveals a bimodal distribution of dune heights emerges beyond a
transport stage of 18. Dune heights flicker between a low and high
alternative state, indicating critical transitions. Potentially
triggered by local sediment outbursts, these shifts lead to dune
formation before returning to an Upper Stage Plane Bed. This flickering
behavior challenges the adequacy of a single snapshot to capture the
system’s state, impacting field measurements and experimental designs,
and questions the classical equilibrium equations. This study calls for
further research to understand and quantify flickering behavior in
sediment beds at high transport stages.
Stable and envy-free lottery allocations for affordable housing
Authors:   Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, China, Wang Zhan ,   Sichuan University, China, Ma Jinpeng ,   Rutgers University-Camden, USA, Zhang Hongwei ,   Sichuan University, China
Published: December 2023

Affordable housing lotteries often enforce a rule preventing duplicate lottery entries that makes the model in Hylland & Zeckhauser (1979) (HZ) inapplicable. We revisit HZ and propose a new individually stable (IS) allocation that can be achieved by a Tickets algorithm and accommodate the rule. A strictly envy-free (SEF) allocation is shown to be the unique IS and Pareto-optimal allocation, the outcome of the unique strong Nash equilibrium of a congestion game, and the unique Pseudo market equilibrium allocation in HZ. The algorithm always obtains the unique SEF allocation (if any) and fixes a designed flaw of existing lotteries.

Authors: Song Euigeun , Heo Sooahn , Kim Il Ryong , Kim Sehee , Lee Hanbi
Published: December 2023

Roads, railways and infrastructure are constructed with consideration of their environmental impacts, especially habitat fragmentation. Wildlife crossing structures increase the permeability of roads and other linear infrastructures for wildlife by allowing animals to safely cross under or over roads and by reducing the risk of wildlife-vehicle collosions. We investigated the location and type of 564 wildlife crossing structures in South Korea. Between April and October 2023, we identified 365 overpasses and 199 underpasses of wildlife crossing structures respectively. Gyeonggi-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do had the largest number of wildlife crossing structures. This study can provide basic information for the effective management of wildlife crossing structures.
Frequency analysis of absolute maximum air temperatures in Serbia

Published: December 2023

This paper describes the frequency analysis of absolute maximum air
temperatures, using annual maximum series (AMS) in the period 1961-2010 from
40 climatological stations in Serbia with maximum likelihood estimation of
distribution parameters. For the goodness of fit testing of General Extreme
Value (GEV), Normal, Log-Normal, Pearson 3 (three parameters), and
Log-Pearson 3 distribution, three different tests were used
(Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Anderson-Darling, chi-square). Based on the results of
these tests (best average rank of certain distribution), the appropriate
distribution is selected. GEV distribution proved to be the most appropriate
one in most cases. The probability of exceedance of absolute maximum air
temperatures on 1%, 0.5%, 0.2%, and 0.1% levels are calculated. A spatial
analysis of the observed and modeled values of absolute maximum air
temperatures in Serbia is given. The absolute maximum air temperature of
44.9?C was recorded at Smederevska Palanka station, and the lowest value of
maximum air temperature 35.8?C was recorded at Zlatibor station, one of the
stations with the highest altitude. The modeled absolute maximum air
temperatures are the highest at Zajecar station with 44.5?C, 45.6?C, 47.0?C, and 48.0?C and the lowest values are calculated for Sjenica station
with 35.5?C, 35.8?C, 36.1?C, and 36.2?C for the return periods of 100,
200, 500, and 1000 years, respectively. Our findings indicate the possible
occurrence of much higher absolute maximum air temperatures in the future
than the ones recorded on almost all of the analyzed stations.
Estimating the economic value of the ecotourism destination: The case of Tra Su Melaleuca Forest Natural Park in Viet Nam
Authors: Huy Huynh , Thi Luu , Khang Nguyen , Trinh Nguyen
Published: December 2023

In this article, the application of the Individual Travel Cost Method (ITCM)
aims at providing a deeper insight into visitors? preferences and their
expenses on marketed and non-marketed services when travelling to the Tra Su
Melaleuca Forest Natural Park, an ecotourism destination in An Giang
Province of Viet Nam. The empirical findings from the survey of 237 visitors
in 2022 showed that the frequency of trips to this recreational site was 1.3
per year on average and relied strongly on the travel costs. Additionally,
the estimate of tourism revenues for 2022 of this site was 82,3 billion Viet
Nam Dong (VND; equivalent to 3,5 million USD). Meanwhile, its economic value
calculated by the ITCM application reaches 206,2 billion VND (or 8,8 million
USD). It is obvious that a greater economic value over the monetary amount
of revenue also raises several ideas of managerial implications dedicated to
the recreational site. It includes building a marketing team for developing
recreational services and digital marketing performance, expanding tour
services like transportation, lodging, local guides. Finally, enabling local
people to engage in dialogues, decision-making, and interest shares is also
necessary for the sustainable development of ecotourism.
How do negative destination image elements affect domestic tourism?
Authors: Todorovic Nikola
Published: December 2023

Destination image perceptions have a strong impact on the visit intention of
tourists. While positive representations of a destination affect this
intention favorably, negative representations decrease it. During the first
year of the pandemic, intensified tourist flows toward dominantly
nature-based destinations influenced the increase of prices, crowdedness,
and pressures on nature within them. These developments were covered by
numerous media reports and were heavily present on social media, which is a
strong channel for modifying image perceptions. This study aims to establish
the strength of the presence of these negative image elements in the
consciousness of tourists and the strength of the impact of these elements
on the intention to spend the summer holiday in Serbia, as well as on the
desire to spend the summer holiday at the seaside. During June and July of
2021, a survey was conducted among 234 participants. The collected data was
analyzed through structural equation modeling (SEM). It was established that
all three negative elements are moderately present in the image perceptions
of domestic destinations, whereby overpricing was determined to be slightly
more present than the excessive amount of visitors and nature endangerment.
Despite this, the studied elements do not pose a negative impact on the
tourists' intention to spend the summer holiday in the country. A strong
positive effect of the perceived expensiveness of destinations (ED) on the
desire to go to the seaside (DGS) was established.

Landbruks- og fiskerinæringene i Norge: Klart utenfor, men stadig mer innenfor EU?
Authors: Farsund Arild Aurvåg
Published: December 2023

Denne artikkelen retter oppmerksomheten mot utviklingstrekk i landbruks- og fiskeripolitikken i Norge og EU etter iverksettingen av EØS-avtalen i 1994. Det argumenteres for at politikken på begge områder har blitt likere, og dette forklares ut fra at både Norge og EU må forholde seg til de samme internasjonale avtalene, at begge deler mange av de samme ideene angående hva som god politikk og at Norge i økende grad importerer lover og regler fra EU. Avslutningsvis argumenteres det med at fortsatt EØS-tilknytning vil være langt mindre utfordrende for landbruks- og fiskerinæringene enn en ny frihandelsavtale eller et EU-medlemskap.
Abstract in English:Agriculture and Fisheries in Norway. Outside, but Increasingly Inside the EU?This article draws attention to developments in agricultural and fisheries policy in Norway and the EU after the implementation of the EEA Agreement in 1994. It is argued that the policy in both areas has become more similar, and this is explained by the fact that both Norway and the EU must follow the same international agreements, that both share many of the same ideas regarding what constitutes proper policies, and that Norway is increasingly importing laws and regulations from the EU. In conclusion, it is argued that continued EEA association will be far less challenging for the agricultural and fishing industries than a new free trade agreement or EU membership.

Introduction. In recent years, there has been an increased number of poisoning with drugs that mainly affect the cardiovascular system, including calcium channel blockers. According to foreign literature, insulin therapy is an effective and safe method of treating patients with severe poisoning with calcium channel blockers.

Aim. To demonstrate the efficacy of high-dose insulin in severe poisoning with calcium channel blockers.

Results. Patient T., 37 years old, took 1000 tablets of nifedipine for suicide 4-6 hours before admission to the hospital. In connection with the development of refractory shock and the ineffectiveness of basic therapy (the intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride solution, calcium chloride (saturated dose), vasopressor/inotropic agents), a decision was made to administer high doses of insulin. After a bolus intravenous injection of insulin, the rate of its intravenous administration was 0.5 U/kg/h and, due to the lack of hemodynamic effect, it was gradually increased in increments of 1–2 U/kg/h at every 15–30 minutes up to a maximum of 8 U/kg/h with constant monitoring of glucose and potassium levels in the blood. As a result, the target hemodynamic parameters were achieved. Then the insulin infusion rate was gradually reduced and, upon achieving hemodynamic stabilization, its administration was stopped 2 days after the start On the 9th day from the moment of hospital admission the patient was transferred from the Intensive Care Unit to the Acute Poisoning Department.

Conclusions. The presented case report shows the efficacy and expediency of using the insulin therapy in the developed refractory shock due to severe poisoning with calcium channel blockers.
Reimaginar as relações internacionais em tempos de crise ecológica: um diálogo sobre justiça multiespécies
Authors:   Wageningen University, Houart Carlota
Published: December 2023

Este artigo parte de uma perspetivade ecologia política para construir uma crítica ao antropocentrismo dominante nas relações internacionais. Argumenta que o reconhecimento da agência de seres não humanos e a inclusão e representação dos mesmos em processos de decisão política são não só essenciais para criar sustentabilidade socioecológica nas comunidades multiespécies de que todos fazemos parte, mas são também, fundamentalmente, uma questão de justiça. O artigo introduz o conceito de justiça multiespécies como possível aliado num diálogo para a reimaginação das relações internacionais enquanto disciplina e prática institucional, recorrendo ao caso dos rios e a algumas das iniciativas não antropocêntricas que têm surgido para a sua proteção, conservação ou restauração.
Para além da narrativa-mestra da modernidade «verde»: uma leitura crítica da transição energética
Authors:   CES, Riquito Mariana
Published: December 2023

Este artigo faz uma reflexão crítica à narrativa dominante sobre a crise climática e seus programas de transição energética. A transição energética tem vindo a reproduzir e a expandir as estruturas do sistema capitalista contemporâneo, nomeadamente os seus aparatos extrativos, tecnológicos e financeiros. Inspirando-me em perspetivas críticas, que desafiam as divisões dicotómicas perpetuadas pelo quadro ontológico hegemónico, argumento que, para fazer face à crise ecológica, devemos adotar práticas que repousem em ontologias não dualistas e que reconheçam, por isso, as profundas e íntimas relações de (inter)dependência que sustentam a vida na Terra.
Ambientalismo operário e justiça climática: convergência para uma transição ecológica partindo do local
Authors:   BHAM, Feltrin Lorenzo , Leonardi Emanuele ,   University of Bologna
Published: December 2023

Este ensaio analisa o desenvolvimento histórico do nexo trabalho-ambiente, defendendo que uma forma particular deste – a transição ecológica partindo do global – tem sido hegemónica nas últimas décadas, mas atra- vessa uma profunda crise. Um novo processo de convergência estratégica entre o ambientalismo operário e os movimentos de justiça climática está a ser implementado dentro de um novo horizonte – o de uma transição ecológica partindo do local. O ensaio discute as implicações de tal processo nas reflexões teóricas sobre a composição de classes e ativismo ecológico. Posteriormente, aprofunda o estudo de caso da ex-Fábrica GKN e o seu Coletivo de Trabalhadores, que se tem destacado pela elaboração e pela prática da convergência estratégica.

Meta-anthropological cognization "transcedental exchange" in legal communication
Authors: Tokarska Antonina
Published: December 2023

Abstract. The problems of meta-anthropological consistency of "transcendental exchange" in legal communication are considered. Emphasis is placed on the results of activities, their driving force, which can be an equally powerful means of both constructive and correlative action. A summary of the meta-anthropological approach to methods of overcoming aggression, impatience, conflict expression is highlighted. Transcendental exchange is based on showing sincere interest in the fate of a person, restraining emotions in conflict communication. It was established that the goal of the anthropological model of communicative interaction is equally extended to various spheres of activity: politics, economics, morality and law, etc. Its main functional role was noted: to ensure the effective interaction of legal subjects, their effective efforts to establish effective contacts that do not violate human rights and basic freedoms. The meta-anthropological interpretation of the exchange of opinions in legal communication is based on a complex socio-psycho-linguistic process. What actualizes the universalism of various models of social practices in communication. The concept of law as communication at the level of the sectoral legal goal of discourse is confirmed.
