Magnetic survey – ground technology, aeromagnetic survey on aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles: a comparative analysis of the results (on the example of Eastern Transbaikalia)
Authors:   Transbaikal State University, Gruzdev R.
Published: December 2020

The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in geophysical work is becoming a very popular area in the field of modern geological exploration. The advantage of unmanned systems is the optimal ratio of the quality of research results with a significant increase in work productivity and a decrease in cost. In this regard, the improvement of field techniques and the processing of UAV materials is of particular interest for exploration. On the subject, there are a number of unresolved issues that have been revealed to some extent as a result of the author’s comparison of ground-based magnetic exploration and aeromagnetic survey data. The purpose of the study was to assess the possibility of a full-fledged replacement of ground magnetic exploration work for aeromagnetic survey using unmanned aerial vehicles. The comparison of different types of magnetic survey is relevant, since on the basis of the actual material, the possibility of using an alternative more productive method – aeromagnetic survey using modern UAVs – instead of traditional expensive ground-based magnetic exploration works is analyzed. To compare the results of the studies, actual material obtained from field work on an area of 13,4 km2 was used. Based on the databases, maps of anomalous magnetic field and graphs on several geophysical profiles are built. Results of magnetic survey in air and ground versions are analyzed; correlation relationships between data of ground pedestrian magnetic survey and aeromagnetic system on An-3 and UAV aircraft are established. Based on the results of the study, correlation and determination coefficients were obtained, which indicate that geophysical methods on UAVs adequately occupy their place between classical aerogeophysics and ground-based pedestrian survey. Moreover, aeromagnetic survey using UAVs is able to replace pedestrian magnetic exploration during work at the same heights. Based on the results of the study, methodological recommendations for the production of aeromagnetic survey on UAVs were compiled
STATE POLICY OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DEVELOPMENT IN RUSSIA: AN ANALYSIS OF STRATEGIC GOALS
Authors:   V. B. Sochava Institute of Geography SB RAS, Blanutsa V.
Published: December 2020

The state policy of artificial intelligence development in Russia is based on the national strategy approved in 2019 and valid until 2030. To understand the specifics of Russian policy, a national strategy was chosen as the object of research, and the subject of research was declared and latent strategic goals. The study is aimed at assessing the degree of correspondence between the strategic goals of state policy and modern concepts of artificial intelligence development. For the automatic analysis of the texts of the national strategy, similar foreign documents and the global array of publications, content analysis was used. The eight largest bibliographic databases have identified many original scientific articles on artificial intelligence. Content analysis of this array made it possible to identify six approaches (algorithmic, test, cognitive, landscape, explanatory and heuristic) to the construction of a concept for the development of artificial intelligence. The latter approach is the most end-to-end, allowing generalizing the rest of the approaches. Further analysis was carried out on the basis of a heuristic approach, within which the concepts of narrow, general and super intelligence are highlighted. The text of the national strategy was analyzed for compliance with the three concepts. It was found that the goals announced in the national strategy refer to the concept of artificial narrow intelligence. Analysis of the frequency of occurrence of terms in the strategy revealed latent goals (access to big data and software) that belong to the same concept. The study of the context of several cases of mentioning artificial general intelligence in the strategy only confirmed the general focus on the development of artificial narrow intelligence. The leading countries in the analyzed area are characterized by a strategic focus on the development of technologies for artificial general intelligence and scientific research on artificial superintelligence. The approximate time lag of the Russian strategy from the creation of artificial general intelligence has been determined. To overcome this lag and Russia occupy a leading position in the world, it was proposed to develop a new national strategy for the creation of artificial superintelligence technologies in the period up to 2050
RELIGIOUS AND POLITICAL THREATS TO THE STATE IN THE WESTERN POLITICAL SCIENCE AND PHILOSOPHY

Published: December 2020

This article is devoted to an attempt to analyze religious threats, which the authors believe is not sufficiently developed in studies on religious security. The analysis was carried out within the framework of the methodology of the socio-philosophical approach, which rejects the version of the metaphysical religious threat from religious organizations. This analysis was carried out by the authors based on the theoretical principles of the theory of the social evolution of religion M. Weber, T. Parsons, theory of religious conflict K. Marx, R. Darendorf and theory of social adaptation of religion J. Richardson, B. R. Wilson. The results of the analysis showed that in the second half of the twentieth century the comprehension of religious threats took place within the confessional, legal, and psychological discourses based on the metaphysical opposition of “yours” and “aliens” (F. Conway, J. Siglman, R. D. Lifton, M. Singer, T. Patrick, J. MacDowell, W. Martin). The general direction of criticism of these discourses was the indication that the illegal actions of extremist organizations are usually determined by their political and economic goals, and not by the content of religious texts, which led to the requirement to distinguish between violent actions and the content of religious doctrines. Therefore, as the authors show, modern analysts, including E. Barker, J. Melton, J. Richardson, R. stark, and M. Introvigne, prove that the challenge and conflict between religious associations can not only be considered as a reflection of threats caused by religions, but also as a manifestation of competition within the confessional space. At the same time, the fears of threats spread in the course of this struggle are very important for the social practice of religions seeking to improve social policy
Different Amino Acids Inhibit or Promote Rhizome Proliferation and Differentiation in Cymbidium goeringii
Authors: Huang Weiting , Fang Zhongming
Published: December 2020

The proliferation and differentiation of rhizomes are crucial for the propagation of Cymbidium species. We systematically assessed the effects of different concentrations of 20 amino acids on the proliferation and differentiation of C. goeringii rhizomes. Rhizome proliferation rates were significantly higher in media with 2.0 mmol·L−1 cysteine, 0.5 mmol·L−1 arginine, 0.2 mmol·L−1 asparagine, 1.0 mmol·L−1 proline, and 0.5 mmol·L−1 lysine compared with those in the control. Additionally, 1.0 mmol·L−1 tyrosine, 0.5 mmol·L−1 asparagine, and 0.2 mmol·L−1 aspartate were beneficial for rhizome differentiation. Furthermore, two combinations of amino acids, 0.5 mmol·L−1 arginine + 1.0 mmol·L−1 proline and 0.5 mmol·L−1 arginine + 2.0 mmol·L−1 cysteine, resulted in proliferation rates of 3.05 and 3.01, respectively, after 60 days. The highest differentiation rate (5.39 after 60 days) was observed in media with 0.5 mmol·L−1 asparagine + 0.2 mmol·L−1 aspartate. This study demonstrated that certain combinations of amino acids can effectively promote the proliferation and differentiation of rhizomes during the rapid propagation of C. goeringii.

SOSYAL HİZMET TARAFINDAN KEŞFEDİLMEYİ BEKLEYEN BİR HAZİNE: PIERRE BOURDIEU
Authors: BAŞCILLAR Mehmet
Published: December 2020

Social work is a profession and discipline supported by psychology, sociology, anthropology
and many other disciplines. In this study, it is aimed to discuss how the social work discipline can
benefit from the giant legacy left behind by Pierre Bourdieu-one of the most important names
of the discipline of sociology in the 20th century. Social work is based on knowledge, skills and
value. In this context, the concepts of field, habitus, reflexivity, capital, doxa, heterodoxa were
explained and the criticisms were put forward in the first chapter. In the second part, with case
study, micro, mezzo and macro level social work practices in various social work fields were
re-discussed in the light of the terms of Pierre Bourdieu. The discipline of social work, which
has a multidisciplinary structure should focus more on the works of Pierre Bourdieu and this
will help the social workers to have a wider perspective for the cases. With the changing society,
social work is also under constant change and development, and the work of Pierre Bourdieu
along with terms field, habitus, reflexivity, capital, doxa, heterodoxa and various other concepts
are to be discovered by the social work.

Aiming at the problem of lack of monitoring method of tunnel deformation, this paper presents a method of tunnel deformation measurement based on laser-radar technology. The measurement method is a non-contact and on-line measurement method. The system is mainly composed of two parts, the host part is composed of computer, ZigBee module and processing software system based on Processing, the slave part is composed of four-rotor craft, STM32 microprocessor, laser radar, ZigBee wireless communication module and power supply module. The new tunnel deformation measurement method based on radar proposed in this paper has the advantage of smaller measurement data error, the data communication and processing speed is qualified and suitable for on-line monitoring.
Latin American Revolutionary Poetry and Songs
Authors:   University of Guanajuato (Mexico), Valdivia Benjamín
Published: December 2020

In Latin America, protest is almost a way of life, due to political conflicts, war, invasion, and submission, are continuous experiences from past centuries to present. Some philosophers, as we established before, think Latin America as a world region having a serious search for identity, since each stage of its past seems to be a destruction of any possibility of feel the life as a normal property of human beings; and seems, too, an expulsion from its proper self. Because of this historical feeling of not belonging, Latin America has only one stage for self-recovery or redemption: the future. Colonial oppression is a principal item whenever we search for a definition appliable. But, at the same time, we recognize a constant trend inside the heart of Latin America: revolutionary expressions inviting to build a better future or claiming for a transformation in a self-affirming way. For all of this, one can understand why exists a variety of artistic Latin American expressions aligned in this profound path to build a better life.
Tragedy and Ecophobia: A Study of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth and J.M. Synge’s Riders to the Sea
Authors:   State Aided College Teacher-I, Department of English, Bhatter College, Dantan, Jana Thakurdas
Published: December 2020

Terry Eagleton’s humorous question of “how a tragedy differs from a congress of global warming” echoes the tragic and traumatic life of human beings facing increasing violence of nature. In a tragedy, the protagonist does not have biophilia as conceptualized by Edward O. Wilson to explain the innate tendency of human beings to find connections with nature and other forms of life, rather experience with themselves of an ecophobia, ‘antipathy towards nature’ as defined by Simon C. Estok. In a tragedy, “the unfathomable agencies of Nature”, to Eagleton, create ecophobia among the characters of tragedies written in most of the periods of literature. It is experienced in a Renaissance tragedy Macbeth by the Bard of Avon with the appearance of ‘nature’s mischief’ as well as in a modern tragedy Riders to the Sea by J.M. Synge with the destructive sea devouring Maurya’s five sons, husband, and husband’s father creating an antipathy towards nature as shown in Macbeth’s fear of the ‘unruly’ and ‘rough’ night and the ambiguous movement of the Brinamwood, and Maurya’s desperate request to resist Bartley to travel by sea to the Galway fair. Their ecophobia has created an unhinged personality among them. With all these perspectives this paper aims to re-establish a connection between ecophobia and tragedy and examine how ecophobia has been internalized among the characters of the aforementioned play.
Seeking theory-practice relations between humanities and fine-arts through practice of painting
Authors:   PhD Candidate, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Sarkar Asmita
Published: December 2020

In recent years different art and design institutions around the world are increasingly looking at developing programs that are research intensive. Along with this trend, doctoral programs that are art and design practice based are becoming progressively common. There are several debates around the nature and significance of art and design practice as research (Sullivan 2005 Borgdorff, 2010, Eriksson 2010). Many have doubts about the exact nature of knowledge contribution made by these PhD theses. One distinct aspect common to all these programs is that these consider creation of art or design artefacts a part of the research process. This paper will discuss some theoretical view-points and philosophical speculations such as discourse on material of art, performance embodiment, cultural-scientific knowledge behind creation of artefact. The aim is to show that the process oriented and performative aspects of art-practice can come into a meaningful dialogue with traditional humanities. In the present article the author/artist has drawn from the writings of art-historian James Elkins (2000) and philosopher Merleau-Ponty (1964,1993,2008) to analyze her own work and devise a methodology of artistic research. The proposed methodology consists of two theoretical lens that are used to contextualize artist’s work: phenomenology (Merleau-Ponty 1964, 1993, 2008) and elements of auto-ethnography (Alvesson 2003). Thus, this paper develops a methodology that contextualizes artist’s intensely personal process of creation and critically evaluate this process. The result is a methodology of artistic research that can be a bridge between creative performance and critical research.
Technification of Knowledge and Knowledge as Technology: the University as the Verse to Come
Authors:   Assistant Professor and Head, Department of English, Sammilani Mahavidyalaya, Sengupta Samrat
Published: December 2020

In the very act of pronouncing the word Uni-Versity the uni- in university motivates the versity – the becoming of the verse as memory – as the act of foregrounding knowledge and its continuity in time – the ontology as well as epistemology of culture and society. But at the same time the uni- is in conflict with the verse making – the versity. This double gesture produces the space of the university as an impossible, contingent and precarious space of learning. So the outside of the university is connected – hyperlinked to its inside space. If the university is made into a decided space of providing information and skill then it ceases to be a university. The erosion of liberal humanist university gradually being overcome by technological skill based universities announces the end of university. This paper shall talk about the transformative potentialities of the verse – the possibilities of unexpected turn that cannot be overcome by any technification and enframing. I would discuss university as a dialectics of desire for unification on one hand and the dynamic creative potentiality on the other that ceaselessly challenges and overcomes that unitary impulse. The idea of the University here has been discussed through the critical theoretical interventions in Jacques Derrida and Bernard Stiegler.
“…and beyond/ Frighted the reign of Chaos and old Night”: On the Humanities (in times of) Crisis
Authors:   Department of English, University of Macau., De Chavez Jeremy
Published: December 2020

The history of the present is replete with the language of crisis, which has infiltrated various domains including the political, economic, social, environmental, and moral. Those various proclamations of collapse and disaster intersect somewhat in yet another crisis that we have become all too familiar with: the Humanities crisis. We are regularly reminded, and with intensifying pleas of urgency, that the Humanities are in peril. While various commentators have linked the troubling erosion of the Humanities to the present and impending failures of critical thought, democracy, and civic duty, the Humanities are still widely regarded as unable to measure up to the emerging dominant metrics of value. What then is to be done? How might we come to the defense of the Humanities without merely mouthing banal pieties or capitulating to the paralyzing force of cynical reason? Avoiding both prescriptive polemics and resignation to the corporate university’s remorseless logic of markets, I offer some reflections on what might constitute a valid defense of the Humanities. I suggest a plural form of defense that does not exacerbate what C.P. Snow has called “a gulf of mutual comprehension” between “two cultures” (1963, p. 4).
Of Fairy Tales: The Reparative Fantasy in Christina Rossetti’s “Goblin Market”
Authors:   University of Macau, Lin Cassie Jun
Published: December 2020

With the heated debate on the utility of the humanities as a context, this paper reads Rossetti’s “Goblin Market” as an attempt to reconcile the emerging functional attitude towards the humanities and the susceptibility of the humanities to the neo-liberal condition. This paper traces connections between the “reparative” or the “post-critical” turn and fairy tales or fantasies in order to argue that Christina Rossetti’s much debated poem, “Goblin Market,” could be framed in a fantastic framework that substantiates a reparative orientation that is “additive and accretive” (Sedgwick, Touching Feeling 149). A stubborn insistence on the hermeneutics of suspicion has informed much of the readings of the “Goblin Market,” especially the haunted market, as “kinda subversive, kinda hegemonic” (Sedgwick, Queer Performativity 15). I aim to provide a different approach given that recent scholarship on “Goblin Market” ignores the possibility of reparation. In this paper, I attempt to withhold suspicion in order to hone caring eyes to uncritical materials that are often deemed untenable to politicized life. I reparatively read the female participation in the market that resuscitates a full female identity and the “muted” ending that is often subjected to paranoid readings. Locating “Goblin Market” in a fantastic framework, I argue, helps us to see the actual world and it helps us visualize a fantastic world that brings out an ethical efflorescence that entertains human experience in its plenitude. This essay also argues that “Goblin Market,” partakes in “a new wave of innovative fairy tales” (Zipes 98) that gained ascendancy in the latter half of the nineteenth century and this serves as an affective archive to document long marginalized figures and feelings. I also argue that Rosetti’s poem invites thoughts on how aesthetic devices sustain and reproduce selves that ripple off from real-life experiences in a fantastic interruption of spatiality and temporality.
Psychological Landscapes and Mines of the Mind: Narrative and Discourse of Red Displacement, White Settlements and Black Laws in the works of Leslie Marmon Silko
Authors:   Ph.D. Scholar, J.C. Bose University of Science & Technology, YMCA, Faridabad, Haryana, Devi Babita
Published: December 2020

This study explores the possibility of foregrounding narratives and discourses from marginalized communities such as that of Native Indians. It attempts to assess the efficacy of articulating subaltern subjectivities as in Leslie Marmon Silko’s works. The article investigates the narrative and informing discourse that propels writing of Native Indian authors who engage with issues like displacement, deviance and behavioural changes in context of the colonial experience. The impact that severed relationships can have on people, the psychological trauma resulting from cultural losses and the intangible changes happening in the recesses of the mind are difficult to quantify, therefore these are conveniently dismissed in mainstream discourses. Yet, the important insights that the subjective perceptions of unquantifiable and intangible losses give is unparalleled and cannot be matched by any scientific claims that may be based on surveys and statistics interpreted within the paradigm of White Man’s discourse. Silko’s narrative offers a bridge to the other side, the possibility to transcend knowledge and information validated by the Whites and glimpse the world so far relegated and marginalized. At the same time, the present study while valuing the quasi- real or semi-fictional qualities of the narrative, the subjective experiences shared and admitting the significance of deep experiences in which the reader is invited to partake of or witness, also undertakes a lexical analysis of Silko’s Ceremony using Voyant Tool to intercept psychological and cultural concerns evoked in the text by studying the frequency of words as they appear in the narrative. The author has often referred to words that have association with land and terrain inhabited by the Natives. This triangulation in research is supposed to be enriching and supportive to the concerns of the authors who many a times use the tools, approach and instruments of West to register their protests emphatically- they use the language of the colonizer, the critical approach of the colonizer and the whole jargon of the colonizer to dismantle the edifice of colonialism. Similarly, this study operates in a way analogous to the text under study by both questioning as well using quantitative research tools to unravel dimensions that may be dear in the given context.
Privileging Oddity and Otherness: A Study of Haruki Murakami’s Kafka on the Shore

Published: December 2020

The concept of otherness in literature usually comes under the broad purview of postcolonial studies, relating to the subaltern and the displaced. This paper, however, focuses on the concept of the ‘other’ and the ‘odd’ in the light of magical realism and how the characters which are generally side-lined by society on the basis of their sexual preference, mental capability, physical deformity, gender fluidity and age find a clear and distinct voice in these fictions. Haruki Murakami’s novel Kafka on the Shore is taken up for this study. The unique blend of surrealism (the progenitor genre) with magical realism (the offspring mode) in the novel creates an oneiric landscape which is still very much rooted in reality, in present day Japan. The paper concentrates on the trauma of certain characters and how their exclusion from society leads to their subsequent recovery. The paper through a detailed and critical study of the novel’s unusual characters and their non-deterministic status of being typified in traditional categories posits magical realism as an apt literary mode for those who lack a voice and are underrepresented in conventional texts. Here ostracism is not portrayed as pessimistic but as a locus for growth and self-discovery.
Partition of Bengal: a Posthumanist Study of Select Literary Works
Authors:   PhD Research Scholar, Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, Ghatak Indra Sankar
Published: December 2020

The Indian Partition ushered in one of the most historical migrations in human history where millions had to change their native affiliations. This event led to the formation of two nation-states (India and East Pakistan) out of a single cultural geography and the drawing of boundaries (Radcliffe line) disrupted the emotional, cultural and spatial link of the people with the native countries. Selected short stories from Bashabi Fraser’s Bengal Partition Stories and the memoirs in Adhir Biswas’ Border: Bangla Bhager Dewal encapsulate the variegated experiences of the dislocated during 1946-1955, who were sabotaged by fellow Bengalis in the name of gender, community (bangal-ghoti), and religion. This paper looks at select samples from the collections mentioned above and correlates them with the history of the period. It raises the question “of which ‘human’ is the posthuman a ‘post’?” (Ferrando, 2019, p. 9) The narratives from the Bengal partition capture the phenomenon of border crossing which had led to fluid identities (refugees/migrants/infiltrators) as individuals had been deterritorialized and reterritorialized. The migrant bodies symbolize an anthropogeographic entity that had been exploited severely, and the refugees present themselves as the cultural metaphor in order to capture the traumatized and ambivalent condition of post-national human beings.
The Fear of Camp Life: Understand the Spatial Reality and Formation of Discourse
Authors:   PhD Scholar, Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai, India, Dutta Joydip
Published: December 2020

The paper makes an existentialist analysis of refugee Camps in West Bengal that came into being after the Indian Partition in 1947 when the state received a large number of asylum seekers from the-then East Pakistan. The objective of the paper is to discuss the construction of Camp life in terms of the affect of fear. Camps have been largely interpreted as the active agents of rehabilitation, space of political movements or supplier of informal labourers. The principal enquiry here however would be to interrogate if the camp is home for the refugees or it has a separate existential reality in the face of fear which goes beyond the questions of rehabilitation. Borrowed from Martin Heidegger’s Being and Time (1927) the concept of fear in this paper does not indicate any specific character or definite future. Rather, fear unfolds as an ‘affect’. In West Bengal, construction of the Camp by the government was presupposed for rehabilitation of the refugees from East Pakistan (Bangladesh). Hence, in-itself a Refugee Camp functioned to control the population by its norms, rules, and regulations. On the other hand, it was constructed as temporary shelter for the refugees. Therefore, the temporal character signifies how Camp constitutes the refugees through ‘care’ and how they encounter reality in that situational condition. The paper will not focus on fear as only as detrimental to the life of the refugees. Rather, it tries to show how the affect of fear may also unfold the possibility of that space by engaging with the elements of speech, silence or listening that constitutes the discourse of Camp. The paper would explore how as a temporary shelter of the refugees, Camp life has been constructed as a discourse in terms of spatial boundary and limits. Coopers Camp in Ranaghat, West Bengal here is taken as a case study to explicate the discourse of camp life in the light of fear and ontologically address the refugee question in post-Partition subcontinent.
Rethinking the India-Bharat Divide vis-à-vis COVID-19: Implications for a Sociolinguistics of Health Communication
Authors:   Associate Professor, Dept. of Humanistic Studies, Indian Institute of Technology (Banaras Hindu University) Varanasi, India, Mishra Ajit Kumar
Published: December 2020

Language plays an important role in the dissemination of critical health information across human societies. Taking a cue from the sociolinguistic nuances of the role of language in society, this study probes the India-Bharat divide in the COVID-19 scenario as a potential hurdle to the sense making practices necessary for successful health communication. By delving into the dichotomous linguistic relationship between India and Bharat, this study contends that in order for this sociolinguistic dichotomy to be resolved and health communication to be effective, it is important that all concerned must be in control of the same code. The study raises questions ranging from challenges for health communication with respect to the linguistically diverse population in the country, access to reliable health information, to the problem of incomprehensibility as a barrier to the availability of proper health information. Through qualitative content analysis of the COVID-19 health information terminology mediated through popular Hindi news channels during the first phase of lockdown in India and the corresponding outcome reports across digital platforms, the study analyses the India-Bharat divide and suggests sociolinguistic strategies that can tacitly turn the structural pluralism into an organic pluralism making heath communication in India smooth and discernible.
Bacha Posh: A Study of The Micronarratives of Gender in Afghanistan

Published: December 2020

The blitzkrieg destabilization of Afghanistan by major world powers and factional groups in contemporary times has triggered major academic works on the country. One witnessed a surge in interest and curiosity about the socio-cultural, religious, political, and economic dynamics of the country. Often regarded as one of the most unsafe country for women in the world, this paper will focus on the concept of a bacha posh in Afghanistan. A bacha posh is a Dari word for a girl disguised as a boy. This paper attempts to examine the power structures that ‘created’ a bacha posh in Afghanistan. The idea of a bacha posh in Afghanistan is a “performativity”, shaped by dialogues that moves beyond the “normative” gender binaries of male and female. A bacha posh move beyond the grand totalizing narratives of gender binaries to create a space that marked by fluidity and freedom. Even though the identity of a bacha posh is a shared deceit, created to serve the needs of an androcentric society, one cannot ignore its subversive nature. A bacha posh subverts the dictums of patriarchy by allowing the girl- child to re-define her subalternity. What happens if the realization of her subalternity results, not in striving for acceptance in the dominant framework of knowledge from which she is excluded, but in the establishment of an alternative centre?
The New Face of Abuse?: Questioning the Fall of the Father and Assessing the Child Exploitation in Deborah Moggach’s Porky
Authors:   Ph.D Scholar (JRF), Department of English, Cooch Behar Panchanan Barma University, West Bengal., Modak Poulomi
Published: December 2020

In contemporaneous world child sexual abuse is possibly the most heinous kind of child exploitation; therefore, continuous dialogue and discourse regarding the child sexual abuse should be given the primordial prominence in order to be well aware about and thereby engage with possible measures against this monster in the closet. It is in this context that the paper attempts through a detailed and critical analysis of Deborah Moggach’s controversial novel Porky to make a reading of the narratives of pain, sufferings, and trauma inflicted upon the ‘abject’ body. Further, the novelist has incorporated the havoc of non-consensual incest which concomitantly attributes the novel as a site for insightful discussion. The proposed article, therefore, interrogates family as a possible locus of sexual exploitation of the children. This reorientation of family as a disintegrated entity eventually brings forth the question of victim’s rehabilitation. Extending this, the paper finally argues any possible healing of the oppressed body.

Violence constantly carries trauma and suffering to combatants as well as non- combatants identically. It also brings enmity and negativity to everyone both emotionally and physically. The cause for any conflict does not emerge from single motive but depends on multiple factors like socioeconomic conditions, marginalisation, discrimination, political power and sometimes even environmental elements. In recent times, the conflicts often emerge among various regional groups rather than states. North Eastern part of India is one of the hotspots for such ethnic conflicts and violence. The major motives for bloody conflict between Indian Army and the underground armed rebels are perceived political imbalance and desire for a separate nation. Even the common civilians are forced to join the rebel groups without knowing consequences. Temsula Ao is one of the prominent English writers from Nagaland who through her moving narratives brings out the existent misery of conflict in her native land. The aim of this paper is to study the psychological impact of domestic violence over the combatants as well as non-combatants whose lives are inseparably intertwined with violence and bloodshed. Though violence is considered as typical condition of human nature most of the time it leads to unbearable trauma and misery. This paper also attempts to interpret the representation of women from the marginalised Ao community who finds difficult to preserve the customs and moral values in spite of regional revolt.

The context of consumers is changing in recent decades, and they are attached to market trends or situations in different regions of the countries. It should be noted that the border regions are special zones that behave differently from the rest of the countries, and Colombia is no exception, which is why the purpose of this research was to reveal the experiences of key informants through a case study based on grounded theory as an interpretive research method, directed to companies in the city of Cúcuta, where their managers through the applied instrument revealed the current situation that is happening with the fluid presence of Venezuelans as clients of those businesses, this resulted in positive effects in the areas of pharmacy, basic needs and transportation, however, in the health sector, the exchange of currencies and aesthetics had negative effects, and where there was no variation was in the sector of telecommunications and legal services.

En las pymes es común encontrar que las prácticas de gestión humana (GH) no son ejecutadas adecuadamente debido a que la mayoría no cuentan con un área específica en este ámbito, por lo cual es ejercida por otros departamentos o personas con un perfil no idóneo, de ahí la necesidad de conocer cómo debería ser el perfil competente para manejar el área de GH, y cómo este le aporta valor a la organización. Este estudio es de carácter descriptivo con enfoque cuantitativo experimental y se apoya en el modelo Tuning, presentando características sociodemográficas y competencias. Se utilizó además un instrumento que fue aplicado a 103 responsables de talento humano en pymes de Villavicencio, cuyos resultados permitieron proponer un perfil idóneo a partir de las competencias y prácticas de gestión humana. El perfil debería ser una persona con estudios en Administración de Empresas o programas académicos afines, con especialización en talento humano, con una experiencia de dos a tres años en diversos cargos en esta área y preferiblemente mujer. Esto permitirá a las organizaciones mejorar el perfil de quienes lo aplican y a las universidades entender que está necesitando el mercado laboral y desarrollar estas competencias en los futuros profesionales.
Wybrane aspekty metodyki badań holistycznej edukacji środowiskowej w świetle idei zrównoważonego rozwoju
Authors: Sandner Jan
Published: December 2020

The concept of the balanced development idea caused a renewed view on the problems in the area of the research methodology in environmental education. The aforesaid viewis related to the necessity of implementing methods in which an appropriate place will be found for a holistic approach to occurring environmental processes. An approach enabling interdisciplinarity of this problem will finally find its solution also in a new teaching method. This forces a new quality of a perceptive view of the environment, however by no means severing from the accepted research methodology enforced in nature sciences. The devised and generated uniformed standardization of holistic environmental education methodology, philosophy of ecology and environmental ethics, should, as a result, impact not only the knowledge status on the said problem but also create quintessential basics in execution of research on the process of shaping the pro-ecology approach. The article also includes selected comments on the studies on estimation methods of the holistic nature science education, which were carried out in the 2006/2007 academic year at the Institute of Ecology and Bioethics of the UKSW (Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński University). The objective of the aforesaid studies, among others, was to work out new system solutions, which could be implemented into the academic teaching programs of the Environmental Protection study specialization. They should also become a reason for a discussion on research methodology for the final individual assignation of “Environmental Protection” studies in our country.

O pensamento ibero-americano: caminho para a internacionalização
Authors: Vargas Thaís Conte , Cunha Maíra Darido da
Published: December 2020

A análise que aqui se apresenta busca recuperar a trajetória recente de um grupo de pesquisadores que têm se dedicado ao estudo sistemático da Educação ibero-americana. Embora centenas de pesquisas venham sendo desenvolvidas sobre a mesma temática, o grupo de pesquisa Cervantes nasceu, em 2006, pelo acordo de cooperação entre a Universidade Estadual Paulista e a Universidade de Alcalá de Henares, com o intuito de oferecer troca de conhecimento entre as duas instituições. Os impactos das novas tecnologias e o crescimento do grupo provocaram intensa modificação na dinâmica de atuação dos participantes e na forma como os investigadores passaram a produzir e divulgar as contribuições científicas elaboradas. A partir de 2012, as ações de internacionalização se fortaleceram: outras universidades latino-americanos se articularam ao grupo; há uma profunda reestruturação da Revista Ibero-Americana de Estudos de Educação. Em 2014, toda a produção intelectual produzida passa a ser difundida em formato digital.

Authors: Rabossi Marcelo , Guaglianone Ariadna
Published: December 2020

La internacionalización de la educación superior ofrece desafíos y oportunidades para los países en vías de industrialización. Dentro de una dinámica de poder, las universidades de las naciones centrales dominan el escenario a la hora de atraer a estudiantes de todo el mundo. Mientras tanto, América Latina se presenta con capacidad de convocatoria acotada y mayormente regional; Argentina no es la excepción. El objetivo de este trabajo es indagar acerca de los procesos de internacionalización en relación al flujo de estudiantes e investigadores del sector universitario argentino a partir de información secundaria. Se realiza aquí un acercamiento a las múltiples definiciones del concepto, se exponen las principales políticas desarrolladas desde los organismos gubernamentales y se analizan las dimensiones vinculadas a la movilidad estudiantil y a la internacionalización de la producción científica, presentando datos estadísticos que dan cuenta de los fenómenos estudiados.
Framework para la enseñanza de la investigación en los posgrados de Educación
Authors: Porras Roman Eduardo Sarmiento , Osorio Valdés Lina Maria
Published: December 2020

La autonomía de la cátedra en la Universidad es fundamental para el crecimiento de la academia y la investigación. No obstante, esa singularidad puede convertirse en un obstáculo para el intercambio de estudiantes, homologación de títulos y en general, para la adecuada interacción entre estudiantes-investigadores-docentes de diferentes universidades (dentro y fuera del país). El fortalecimiento de los programas educativos surge fundamentalmente de los procesos de investigación. Hoy, en una sociedad globalizada, cada vez es más común encontrar estudiantes y docentes que buscan intercambios académicos y de investigación con el fin de ampliar su perfil académico y profesional. Sin embargo, son pocos los que logran encontrar Universidades afines a sus actuales procesos de formación y de enseñanza. Este artículo describe de manera detallada, después de dos años de recolección de información cualitativa y cuantitativa, un framework común sobre la enseñanza de la investigación en programas de posgrado en educación. Este framework busca iniciar la discusión, desde las Ciencias Sociales y Humanas, sobre lo valioso y riguroso que debe ser para las universidades el proceso de investigación en sus posgrados. Esto permitirá crear estrategias de intercambio y fortalecimiento, desde la investigación, de los programas académicos.

Authors: Carrasco Cecilia Marambio , Vergara Francisco Gárate
Published: December 2020

Se presenta un estudio sobre las capacidades de los estudiantes de Educación Pavularia, que cursan 1° y 2° año de dicha carrera. El objetivo es verificar el dominio de las capacidades cognitivas superiores del pensamiento crítico. La metodología responde a un con diseño explicativo con enfoque mixto. Se aplicó el cuestionario ILP-R para determinar nivel de dominio del pensamiento crítico, indicando que en la generalidad los datos se mueven en la escala de 4 a 5 en promedio, es decir “medianamente de acuerdo”. Lo que indica que el 40,60% de la población estudiada no logra desarrollar las habilidades del pensamiento critico para establecer patrones de desarrollo de constructos e inferencias en la resolución de problemas, en áreas del conocimiento complejo de su formación profesional. Es importante crear una propuesta estratégica que permita expandir las capacidades de profundización del conocimiento y creatividad de los estudiantes, logrando establecer parámetros evaluativos propios en situaciones complejas.
