Biomass, lipid accumulation kinetics and the transcriptome of heterotrophic oleaginous microalga Tetradesmus bernardii under different carbon and nitrogen regime
Authors: Gao Baoyan , Wang Feifei , Huang Luodong , Liu Hui , Zhong Yuming , Zhang Chengwu
Published: January 2021

Background: Heterotrophic cultivation of microalgae has been proposed as a viable alternative method for novel high-value biomolecules, enriched biomass and biofuel production because of their allowance of high cell density levels, as well as simple production technology. Tetradesmus bernardii, a newly isolated high-yielding oleaginous microalga under photoautotrophic conditions, is able to grow heterotrophically, meaning that it can consume organic carbon sources in dark condition. We investigated the effect of different carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratios on the growth and lipid accumulation of T. bernardii in heterotrophic batch culture under two nitrogen sources (NaNO3, CO(NH2)2). In addition, we conducted time-resolved transcriptome analysis to reveal the metabolic mechanism of T. bernardii in heterotrophic culture. Results: T. bernardii can accumulated high biomass concentrations in heterotrophic batch culture which the highest biomass of 46.09 g/L was achieved at 100 g/L glucose concentration. The rate of glucose to biomass was exceed 55% when the glucose concentration was less than 80 g/L, and the C/N ratio was 44 at urea treatment. The culture was beneficial to lipid accumulation at a C/N ratio between 110 and 130. NaNO3 used as a nitrogen source enhanced the lipid content more than urea, and the highest lipid content was 45% of dry weight. We performed RNA-seq to analyze the time-resolved transcriptome of T. bernardii. As the nitrogen was consumed in the medium, nitrogen metabolism related genes were significantly up-regulated to speed up the N metabolic cycle. As chloroplasts were destroyed in the dark, the metabolism of cells was transferred from chloroplasts to cytoplasm. However, storage of carbohydrate in chloroplast remained active, mainly the synthesis of starch, and the precursor of starch synthesis in heterotrophic culture may largely came from the absorption of organic carbon source (glucose). With regard to lipid metabolism, the related genes of fatty acid synthesis in low nitrogen concentration increased gradually with the extension of cultivation time.Conclusion: T. bernardii exhibited rapid growth and high lipid accumulation in heterotrophic culture. It may be a potential candidate for biomass and biofuel production. Transcriptome analysis showed that multilevel regulation ensured the conversion from carbon to the synthesis of carbohydrate and lipid.

This study explored the effectiveness of using the Khan academy video podcast as a supplemental tool in the chemistry class of Engineering programs. This study utilized a quasi-experimental equivalent design with a post-test only. Thirty 1st year non-STEM students, equally distributed to control and experimental groups, were selected using a matched paired sampling method to participate in a two-week-long intervention. As results revealed, its utilization as a supplemental tool had a viable impact on the students performance in chemistry. Its utilization significantly increased their test scores as compared to the students who did not use it. Likewise, a post-exposure self-report survey was administered to shed light on the learning experience of using the supplemental tool. They indicated the cognitive advantage and personalized experience of using the Khan Academy. This study can contribute to the literature of Khan Academy in the chemistry field. Nonetheless, several limitations need to be addressed to augment future research. Considering the inclusion of more topics, longer time of experimentation, size of the sample, and explicit study of their behavior, for instance, can help establish the veracity of the future results.

Authors:   Departement De Sociologie-Anthropologie/ FASHS/ Universite dAbomey-Calavi (Benin)., Hinnou Patrick
Published: January 2021

Political modernity is a negotiated reality, which requires adaptation, innovation. The representations or perceptions of young Beninese constitute variables of recognition of political modernity, even of the modernity of political figures or elites. These are criteria for the recognition and validation of political leadership. How do young Beninese build their criteria of political modernity? In addition, how do they state their perceptions of the modernity of elites or political figures in Benin? Essentially qualitative and based on comprehensive interviews carried out in Benin from a survey integrating about thirty (30) people, this research appropriates the dynamics of interpretative sociology and adopts the model of analysis based on the social construction of reality, with an opening on interactionism and strategic analysis. By postulating that the perceptions of young people on political modernity structure the relationships between their expectations and the behavior of elites or political figures in society, this work has made it possible to elucidate the social representations which guide the modernity of political elites in Benin. It revealed the over-intellectualization of the political arena, the pervasiveness of the bÃ³ or gris-gris, the emergence of a new relationship to way of life, to technology, then the modernization of public action and marginalization of the opposition.
A Review of the Role of Intangible Axis toward the Pathok Negoro’s Design Concept, Yogyakarta
Authors: Meliana Silvia , Caroline Octaviana Sylvia
Published: January 2021

The research aimed to review the role of the ‘mystical’ imaginary axis in Javanese cosmology in the Yogyakarta that might affect the inner spaces of the Pathok Negoro mosques (Ploso Kuning, Babadan, Dongkelan, and Mlangi). The research question was how Yogyakarta’s imaginary axis affected the inner spaces of these four Pathok Negoro. Yogyakarta was known to have a unique Javanese cosmology, cultural, and social life character compared to several cities on the island of Java. Yogyakarta kept a harmonious power between human life and the universe and still hold strong Javanese animism and was still tightly coupled with the city’s modern life. Human harmony with the universe was seen in the axis of a city that consisted of two main axes in the direction of the compass, namely north to south and east to west. The research applied a qualitative method by doing a literature study and observation. The research shows that the imaginary axis plays an essential role in Yogyakarta’s urban design and creates a sustainable concept of the four Pathok Negoro. However, it is not directly involved in the order of the inner space of the architecture design of each mosque.

Published: January 2021

The research aimed to reveal the impacts by adolescents who experienced internet addiction with pornographic content. It applied a qualitative approach, namely an instrumental case study. Participants were 18-25 years old, there were six adolescents who were obtained based on the initial screening, namely self-reporting through a pornography internet addiction questionnaire. The data were collected by in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. Thematic analysis with NVivo 12 data management was used as the data analysis technique. The results show that adolescents experience changes in cognition and affection for sexual stimulation caused by the internet with pornographic content. The impact of cognition is shown from their obsessive-compulsive thoughts on sexual content. They always have the desire to see those photos or video over again, which lead them to sleep disorders due to visualizing scenes of sexual intercourse. The impact of affection can be seen from their desire to act in sexual activity, their being so passionate and pleased after seeing pornographic content, and their expectation to feel such immense affection. Furthermore, they might find difficulty in establishing interpersonal relationships with other people and tend to withdraw themselves from the social environment.

Published: January 2021

Türkçenin eklemeli bir dil olması, hangi kelimenin hangi kökten türetildiği hakkında daha ilk bakışta doğru çıkarım yapmayı sağlamaktadır. Ancak kelimelerde zaman içinde meydana gelen ses ve anlam değişiklikleri ya da dile sonradan giren unsurlar nedeniyle bazı tesadüfi benzerlikler ortaya çıkmaktadır. Böyle bir durumda ses ve anlam bakımından birbirine benzeyen ama aslında kökleri ya da kökenleri farklı olan kelimeler, aynı kökten türemiş zannedilmektedir. Türkiye Türkçesine tarihî bir süreç içinde gelen “eğ- (eğmek)” fiili ile Türkiye Türkçesine Dil Devrimi sonucunda giren “eğit- (eğitmek), eğitim” kelimeleri, bu duruma örnek olarak verilebilir. Bu çalışmada “eğit- (eğitmek), eğitim” kelimelerinin Türkiye Türkçesine giriş süreci anlatılacak ve söz konusu kelimelerin “eğ- (eğmek)” fiili ile yapısal bir bağlantısı olmadığı açıklanmaya çalışılacaktır.

: The present essay intends to make known the social representations of women in old age in the fashion world, with the purpose of understanding this social phenomenon little investigated and of great social relevance. For this study we used a qualitative approach, with sampling of multiple cases, in the Porto Metropolitan Area and of interviewees in Lisbon - Portugal, with the participation of 14 women: elderly women over 65 (consumers) and fashion professionals (fashion design, shopkeeper, dressmaker, social events company) of notorious social recognition. The interviews were conducted based on a semi-structured script, in order to capture the social representations of elderly women and the contribution of fashion professionals in the face of the phenomenon studied. The work includes the following approaches: socio-historical aspects about fashion; the space of women in old age in the fashion world; theoretical assumptions about aging and fashion; methodology used; and, finally, the narratives of women in old age in the Portuguese context. Although elderly women do not understand the phenomenon of fashion in aging, they point out their social representations about fashion in this age group.

An Islamic Legal hermeneutics on Nafāqah during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Muthmainnah Yulianti , Khaidir Revoluna Zyde
Published: January 2021

Those who work and earn money in the public sphere are obliged to find alimony and provide a living (nafāqah). The assumption that has been believed by the Muslim society is that alimony is a man's duty (husband to wife, father to family). This assumption has been influenced by several factors such as language construction, state policies and the normative religious understanding. During the Covid-19 pandemic, this one-sided assumption has not only continued discriminatory for women and kept them away from such fair and equal economic access, but also it has tended to take Muslim families’ economy into the risks. This article aims to examine the complexities of working women position in the Islamic legal jurisprudence and provide an alternative narrative of Islamic legal hermeneutics ensuring that the livelihoods do not become the domain of men alone. Accordingly, it can be argued that the alimony might be considered to become the obligation of both men and women equally. Interviews with a number of women at the grassroots level prove that women are being able to play roles in earning a living.

Entre el milagro y la devoción: imagen y evangelización en la Nueva Granada a la luz de la visita de Andrés Verdugo y Oquendo, 1755-1756
Authors: Cruz Medina Juan Pablo
Published: January 2021

A lo largo del tiempo, la evangelización indígena ha estado asociada directamente a la imagen religiosa, lo que ha convertido al discurso visual en el puente para superar las barreras idiomáticas entre los doctrineros españoles y los naturales de las nuevas tierras. Con tal aserto como referencia, en el presenteartículo nos preguntamos por el discurso visual fijado en el ámbito doctrinal y su posible funcionalidad en el marco de la “catequesis” del indio. A partir de los inventarios de los templos de doctrina pertenecientes al partido de Tunja, realizados en el marco de la visita efectuada por Andrés Verdugo y Oquendo entre 1755 y 1756, el presente texto busca entonces reconstruir el horizonte iconográfico de la doctrina en la Nueva Granada del siglo XVIII. Con base en ello se determinará el papel que la devoción y el milagro tuvieron, no solo como ejes del discurso visual de la doctrina, sino como núcleo de la catequesis misma.

En Yucatán existen tres retablos colaterales que presentan un modelo peculiar, caracterizado por el empleo de columnas antropomorfas con forma de cariátides que rompen con los cánones clásicos que se hicieron de la obra de Vitrubio tanto en Europa como en la Nueva España. Dichas piezas hasta ahora solo se han encontrado en esta región y podrían considerarse una muestra del arte regional. Su análisis deja ver que se trata de un diseño que presenta una solución artística local en su manufactura, así como la planeación de un discurso y la exhibición de destreza únicas por parte de sus artífices. Estos elementos permiten aseverar que se trata de una aportación yucateca al arte y la cultura visual colonial novohispana.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DOOR-TO-BALLOON TIME AND CLINICAL EXPERIENCE LEVEL OF EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT PHYSICIANS
Authors: AYDIN Ercan , YILMAZ Emre , ŞAHİNKUŞ Salih
Published: January 2021

Background: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the
experience level of physicians who initially make a clinical diagnosis
of patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction in the
emergency department and door-to-balloon time (DBT). Material and
methods: Between January and December 2018, the research group was
selected randomly among 522 patients with ST elevation myocardial
infarction who were immediately treated in the catheter laboratory.
Angiography images were monitored from the patients’ records in the
catheter laboratory. The time of admission to the emergency room was
obtained using the hospital registration system. The experience level of
physicians who initially clinically diagnosed patients in the emergency
department was divided into three groups: medical practitioner (who did
not receive emergency training), assistant physician (undergoing
emergency medicine training), and emergency medicine specialist.
Results: The study included 522 patients who underwent primary
percutaneous intervention due to ST segment elevation myocardial
infarction. The mean age was lower, and cardiogenic shock and mortality
rates were lower in the group with DBT<60 /min compared with
the group with DBT>60/min. In the expert group, the mean
DBT was lower, but the cardiogenic shock and mortality rates were higher
(p<0.05). Conclusions: The duration of DBT decreases as the
experience level of the emergency physician increases, but randomization
is required to determine its clinical benefit

How Did Donald Trump Turn the Republican Party into the People's Party?
Authors: Barda Kobby
Published: January 2021

The accepted working assumption on the eve of the 2020 Presidential
Election in the US was that his image, as well as the perception that he
holds negative opinions regarding immigrants and immigration while
supported by white supremacists, would result in voters casting their
ballot based on racial or ethnic considerations to vote against him.
This paper was aimed at examining that linkage, to see if it took place
in reality, or rather if voting needs to be looked at as a choice made
based on class and stature, not racial background. To examine the issue
at hand, 2016 voting patterns were compared to 2020 exit polls based on
racial background. The findings showed that support for President Trump
rose across all races, sometimes more than doubling. At the same time,
votes were analyzed based on a breakdown by class. For the study, three
batches of districts were chosen: the poor of America, the average of
America, and the rich of America. One district was chosen from each
state, and a total of 147 districts from across the US were looked at.
The research shows that as one climbs the social ladder, support for
President Trump declines. Or, in the context of this paper: the lower
one is on the social class ladder, especially among the ‘forgotten’
periphery, the higher the approval and support rate of President Trump
is.
Airway Management In The Emergency Department
Authors: Pacheco Garrett S. , Wilson Bryan
Published: January 2021

Emergency airway management has evolved tremendously since the onset of the specialty’s origin. Over the years, the importance of first-pass success and approach to the difficult airway were the primary challenges faced by emergency physicians. With the advent of video laryngoscopy, the rates of first-pass success continue to increase, and the effect of the anatomically difficult airway has begun to lessen. With advances in tools for airway management, the challenges have shifted to approaching optimal preoxygenation and correction of physiologic disturbances prior to any intubation attempt. This review discusses traditional rapid sequence intubation and advances in the field of emergency airway management.

Conversion Disorder and Its Clinical Management

Published: January 2021

This review discusses the complex path to the current definition of conversion disorder (CD), from ancient Egypt to the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), and the way that our understanding of the disorder’s etiology and pathophysiology shaped both its name and its diagnostic criteria. We describe emergence of a comprehensive theory of CD’s pathophysiology, in which an overly sensitive limbic system, shaped by traumatic experiences, changes neural networks responsible for perceptual experiences and movement plans, ultimately producing CD symptoms. We also discuss the importance of early diagnosis of CD as a delayed diagnosis is associated with worse outcomes and precludes appropriate treatment. A variety of diagnostic techniques exist to help distinguish between functional neurologic symptoms and organic disease. Among treatments, we highly recommend therapeutic disclosure of the diagnosis and cognitive-behavioral therapy, which has a small but high-quality evidence base to support its use in the treatment of CD. Collaboration between psychiatrists and neurologists may ensure appropriate diagnosis and treatment of this challenging condition. Prognosis of CD is generally poor, with comorbid personality disorder and delayed diagnosis correlating with worse outcomes.

Published: January 2021

Sexuality and sexual medicine are important and often understudied aspects of medicine and psychiatry. Often, patients and physicians avoid conversations regarding sex. A paraphilic disorder is diagnosed when a paraphilia, defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-5) as “any intense and persistent sexual interest other than sexual interest in genital stimulation or preparatory fondling with phenotypically normal, physically mature, consenting human partners”, results in distress or impairment to the individual, personal harm, or risk of harm, to others. This review covers the definition, diagnostic criteria, epidemiology, etiology, phenomenology, diagnostic work-up, treatment modalities, guidelines, and prognosis of paraphilias including voyeurism, exhibitionism, frotteurism, sexual masochism disorder, sexual sadism disorder, pedophilic disorder, and transvestic disorder. The table and figure list paraphilic disorders listed in the DSM-5 and paraphilias in the Other specified paraphilic disorders section of the DSM-5.

Objective: This study evaluated the effects of continuous glucose
monitoring (CGM) combined with family behavioral intervention (CGM+FBI) and CGM
alone (Standard-CGM) on glycemic outcomes and parental quality of life compared
with blood glucose monitoring (BGM) in children ages 2 to <8 years with type
1 diabetes

Research Design and Methods: A
multicenter (N=14), 6-month, randomized controlled trial including 143 youth 2
to <8 years of age with type 1 diabetes. Primary analysis included treatment
group comparisons of percent time in range (TIR, 70-180 mg/dL) across follow-up
visits.

Results: About 90% of participants in the CGM groups used CGM ≥ 6
days/week at 6-months. Between-group TIR comparisons showed no significant
changes: CGM+FBI vs BGM = 3.2% [95% CI -0.5%, 7.0%], Standard-CGM vs BGM = 0.5%
[-2.6% to 3.6%], CGM+FBI vs Standard-CGM = 2.7% [-0.6%, 6.1%]. Mean time <70
mg/dL was reduced from baseline to follow-up in the CGM+FBI (from 5.2% to 2.6%)
and Standard-CGM (5.8% to 2.5%) groups , compared with 5.4% to 5.8% with BGM
(CGM+FBI vs. BGM, p<0.001, Standard-CGM vs BGM p<0.001). No severe hypoglycemic events occurred in the
CGM+FBI group, 1 in the Standard-CGM, and 5 in the BGM. CGM+FBI parents
reported greater reductions in diabetes burden and fear of hypoglycemia
compared with Standard-CGM (p=0.008 and 0.04) and BGM (p=0.02 and 0.002).

Conclusions:
CGM used consistently over a 6-month period in young
children with type 1 diabetes did not improve TIR but did significantly reduce
time in hypoglycemia. The FBI benefited parental well-being.
Impact Of Mozhaysk Dam On The Moscow River Sediment Transport
Authors: Sokolov Dmitriy I. , Erina Oxana N. , Tereshina Maria A. , Puklakov Valeriy V.
Published: January 2021

Sediments are an essential part of the aquatic environment that define its transformation and development. The construction of dams results in severe changes in sediment fluxes. This study aims to assess how the sediment load of the upper Moskva River is affected by the Mozhaysk Dam flow regulation and to estimate its dynamics over the years of the reservoir’s existence. Our analysis of the 1968, 2012 and 2016 detailed field data shows a 20-40% decrease in the proportion of the spring flood in the annual sediment load into the reservoir, which is caused by changes in the streamflow regime of the inflowing rivers. The peak suspended sediment concentrations have decreased 5- to 10-fold, likely due to a significant decline in the watershed’s cultivated land area, which caused a decrease in the erosion rate. In the Moskva River below the dam, the seasonal dynamics of the suspended sediment concentration no longer corresponds to the natural regime. The annual suspended load of the Moskva River below the Mozhaysk Reservoir decreased up to 9-fold. The sediment retention in the reservoir has dropped from 90% to 70-85% and is to some extent restored by an outflow of the particulate organic matter produced in the reservoir. We also described the relationships between water turbidity and suspended sediment concentration of the reservoir’s tributaries, which allow for the first time to estimate the sediment load with higher accuracy than was previously possible.
"¿Qué porvenir será tu pasado?". Entender la realidad actual a través de Anatomía de la memoria, de Eduardo Ruiz Sosa
Authors: ELVIRA NAVARRO ANDREA
Published: January 2021

Este artículo supone un acercamiento a la obra narrativa de Eduardo Ruiz Sosa (México, 1983) desde el punto de vista político, atendiendo a su novela Anatomía de la memoria.  A través de una ficcionalización de su tierra natal, el autor pretende un alejamiento con respecto al pasado para intentar comprender de qué manera el sujeto actual construye su presente en una atmósfera asediada por la violencia y la muerte. Para ello, se llevará a cabo un acercamiento a su particular estilo literario, profundamente lírico, con el que formulará una crítica a los mecanismos de represión estatal en el pasado y en el presente.
The Symbolism of Evil: The Full Shape of Our Capacity for Moral Responsibility
Authors: Ban Marius Daniel
Published: January 2021

In this article, I examine the discourse around evil from the perspective of philosophical anthropology. Through an analysis of the religious symbolism of evil and an associated quest for a complete study of being, I intend in this article to explore fresh ways of establishing the relation between our rhetorical practices of evil and moral responsibility. I draw on Ricoeur’s work on the primary symbols of evil (stain, sin and guilt), which can be seen as a means for clarifying and extending our understanding of evil and moral responsibility. I employ the concept of “the double intentionality of symbol” to advance an expressive-performative model of speaking about the full shape of moral responsibility. At stake in my paper is the possibility of recognizing the need to valorise subordinate resources of knowledge that might prevent us from studying and responding to the elusive reality of evil in intellectual abstraction.
Self-transformation and Spiritual Exemplars
Authors: Harrison Victoria S. , Gayle Rhett
Published: January 2021

This paper focuses on the process of self-transformation through which a person comes to embody the ideal of her religion’s vision of the divine, as far as that ideal is expressible in a human life. The paper is concerned with the self as the subject of religious commitments, traits, religious aspirations and religiously inspired ideals. The self-transformative journey that people are invited to undertake poses a number of philosophical and practical difficulties; the paper explores some of these difficulties, concentrating on those that arise in connection with the notion of potential future selves. This paper suggests that imaginative reflection upon exemplary individuals provides one way through these difficulties, for these individuals can show us what it looks like when someone achieves, or draws close to, the ideal.
Freedom to Choose Between Good and Evil: Theological Anthropology in Discussion with Philosophy
Authors: Kováčik Matej
Published: January 2021

After a brief discussion of the terms determinism and free will, the paper sets out to compare some recent philosophical approaches to the problem of free will with a theological anthropology account of the notion. It aims to defend the claim, that even though different kind of questions are asked on both sides, they tackle similar issues and a complementary approach is needed. Recent philosophy considers the problem mostly from the standpoint of logic, naturalist evolutionary ontology and cognitive science. In the Christian theological tradition, the idea of free will has been discussed mostly from the perspective of the problem of sin and grace, thus on the grounds of soteriology, hamartiology and theological ethics. The paper shows similarities between the approaches, mainly between the problem of physical determinism and theological determinism and also divine foreknowledge.
Discriminação algorítmica no trabalho digital
Authors: Da Rocha Cláudio Jannotti , Porto Lorena Vasconcelos , Abaurre Helena Emerick
Published: January 2021

Com o advento da Quarta Revolução Industrial, as tecnologias do Big Data, do machine learning e da Inteligência Artificial passam a ser utilizadas de maneira combinada permitindo que algoritmos estejam em constante reanálise de padrões de interesses com base em um banco de dados previamente estabelecido pelo programador do código-fonte. Entretanto, os padrões algorítmicos podem se revelar enviesados e capazes de produzir uma nova espécie de dano na dinâmica laboral: a “discriminação algorítmica”. Quando determinado conteúdo é valorado negativamente ou excluído do output correspondente ao que o artifício compreende como relevante, o dano, tal qual o Big Data, ocorre em velocidade, volume e variedade, sobretudo quando os sujeitos atingidos pelos vieses utilizam as redes virtuais sobre as quais operam os algoritmos como o seu meio ambiente de trabalho. Nesse contexto, elencam-se como problemáticas condutoras da presente pesquisa: como a discriminação algorítmica de viés racista atinge os trabalhadores digitais? Como criar um meio ambiente virtual de trabalho não discriminatório? Por meio da investigação qualitativa, documental e bibliográfica, será testada a hipótese de que influenciadores e criadores de conteúdo digital têm o seu labor significantemente prejudicado pelo viés racista imbricado nas métricas algorítmicas e de que a demanda por melhores condições de transparência junto às empresas detentoras das plataformas pode encontrar na união em coletivos de trabalhadores uma via próspera para o alcance de igualdade de acesso a oportunidades de trabalho no ciberespaço.

Authors:   Profesora asociada, Instituto de Sociología, Universidad Johannes Kepler Linz, Austria, Fischer Karin , Waxenecker Harald ,   Investigador, Departamento de Estudios Ambientales, Facultad de Estudios Sociales, Universidad Masaryk, República Checa
Published: January 2021

Este artículo toma Guatemala como caso de estudio a fin de aportar consideraciones sobre la élite neoliberal del poder y del conocimiento. Partiendo de la investigación sobre la estructura del poder y la teoría del poder social de Michael Mann, así como el análisis de redes, el estudio explora la red nacional de think tanks de derechas/neoliberales en Guatemala y detecta los enlaces clave o núcleo central dentro de dicha red. Basándose en datos reales, el análisis revela las conexiones empresariales del personal de estos think tanks neoliberales. Así pues, el artículo presenta las primeras consideraciones sobre aquellos que ocupan posiciones privilegiadas de poder dentro de la red de think tanks y, por lo tanto, tienen capacidades para el establecimiento de contactos y la transferencia de conocimiento en el ámbito del poder económico e ideológico.
Methodology and tools for the organization's social capital empirical research: the theoretical approaches analysis
Authors: Igumnov O. A.
Published: January 2021

The article contains the results of the methodological approaches to the formation of tools for the study of organizational social capital analysis. The author identifies theoretical and methodological problems that actualize the operationalization and choice of measurement procedures for the study of social capital in connection with its increasing role in the management of organizations. The article highlights the minimum requirements for the operationalization of social capital which are not implemented in most studies. Based on the analysis, the author identifies deductive (more classical) and inductive methodological strategies. The first strategy requires an initial clear definition of social capital as an object of research and identification of its constituent elements. The second strategy involves constructing the concept of social capital as a result of generalizing empirical phenomena. The results of the analysis of several generalized operationalization schemes proposed by various researchers (“top-down” and “bottom-up” schemes) are presented. It is concluded that the advantages of constructing the concept of social capital on the basis of an empirical approach in comparison with the theoretical and deductive approach which however is limited due to the subject of study. Attempts of social capital meta-analysis are reduced to the study of effects rather than content. The article notes the increasing role of digitalization in the formation of network communities that are transformed under new information and communication structures influence into a diversified type of social associations that do not radically change the nature and content of social capital.
