The Perception and Implications of Bride-Wealth for Marital Relationship: Gender Analysis through Sukuma Oral Arts
Authors: Masele Esther ,   University of Dodoma, Tanzania
Published: July 2024

This study examines the perception and implications of bride-wealth among the Sukuma of Tanzania. The data, which were basically the Sukuma views and the discourse of their songs, were collected using interviews and observations. The analysis and interpretation of the study findings were informed by the social construction theory of reality. Two specific questions guided the study: What knowledge do the Sukuma have about the role and practice of bride-wealth? How do the Sukuma oral arts communicate the social practices of bride-wealth in the community? The integration of songs with people’s views facilitates understanding of the context in which bride-wealth is practiced and transmitted from one generation to another. It also highlights the efficacy of oral arts, specifically songs reflecting social reality. The study reveals that the cultural practice of paying the bride-wealth in the Sukuma, on the one hand, makes the married woman a man’s product as it ties all the movement of her life; on the other hand, it threatens men’s identity, especially those who cannot manage to pay it in full. Generally, the study demonstrates how oral arts provide knowledge on power relations resulting from the inherent social practices of marriage. This knowledge contributes to the understanding of gender status quo in African countries, which is one of the ongoing debates globally. Keywords: Bride-wealth, arranged marriage, marital relationship
Interpreting Perlocutionary Speech Acts on Aggravation and Mitigation Circumstances: The Case of the former ICTR
Authors: Keya Antoni ,   University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Published: July 2024

This article attempts to interpret the interactivity between force of utterance and aggravating and mitigation circumstances during the ICTR sentencing process. This process is essential in determining whether the judges’ evaluative comments aimed at addressing aggravation and mitigation circumstances are predictive of the ensuing sentences. The data for this article were accessed from the 1995–2000 Basic Documents and Case Law CD-ROM of the then International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) in Arusha, Tanzania, focusing on the thirteen (13) completed cases retrievable from http://www.ictr.org. Informed by the Speech Act Theory and using Wordsmith to determine the frequency of linguistic terms at airing aggravation, the study was done on seventy-two thousand words, paying attention to interpreting the language used to address aggravating and mitigating circumstances. Findings show that emotive evaluations are not a major characteristic in sentencing, and where in use, they do not predict the harshness of punishments given. Keywords: Aggravation, International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR), Mitigation, Sentencing, and Speech Act Theory
Intertextual Borrowings in Ngugi wa Thiong’o’s Petals of Blood
Authors: Msuya Erasmus ,   University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Published: July 2024

In every writing, literary and non-literary, no text exists as a complete isolate and complete authorial innovation. It manifests and results from multiple borrowings, conscious and otherwise, from other texts. Following Kristeva (1986), Genette (1997) and William (2010), this study analysed Ngugi wa Thiong’o’s novel, Petals of Blood, to uncover differing extents of textual borrowing in the form of reference, quotation, parody, borrowing, allusion and translation. The study used document review and textual analysis to generate the data that were then subjected to content analysis register occurrences of different forms of intertextuality. Data analysis and interpretation entailed placing these occurrences into themes, establishing frequencies, and computing percentages. The resultant data were summarised and presented in tables and figures, coupled with evidential excerpts gleaned from the text. Borrowing emerged to be the most predominant intertextual element accounting as it does for more than one-third of all intertextualities in Ngugi’s novel. In second came parody and allusion in that order. The other three forms of intertextuality—quotation, reference and translation—are comparably less pronounced in the novel. Conclusively, Ngugi's intertextuality subscribes to the spirit of Africanizing the English as a literary medium in the mould of what terms decolonising the mind of an African writer. Keywords: Africanizing English, borrowing, intertextuality, literary language
TRANSAKSI CRYPTOCURRENCY DITINJAU DALAM PERSPEKTIF HUKUM POSITIF DAN HUKUM ISLAM
Authors: Auranti Sagita , Asyiqin Hisyam
Published: July 2024

The Globalization system has had a huge impact on modern society, especially in the fields of science, technology, information and communication, all of which are developing rapidly. The most famous currency is Bitcoin or cryptocurrency. Because there are now no clear boundaries and no recognition of the existence of cryptocurrencies in Indonesia, these cryptocurrencies are facing a number of polemics regarding their use throughout the world, including in that country. The debate over whether Bitcoin is halal or haram in Islam continues among scholars who study the Koran, hadith, ijma and other Islamic books. One important area of expertise in the world of information security is cryptography. Today, professionals in the fields of computer science and mathematics discovered a new application of encryption that could improve the quality of life of local communities: the buying and selling of digital currencies known as cryptocurrencies. Digital currencies that are not subject to government regulation are known as cryptocurrencies; this does not include official cash. This cryptocurrency is the forerunner to the creation of digital currency which is now known as Bitcoin currency, which can be used like other types of money. And the result of the discussion is that whether scholars allow cryptocurrency or not. This research uses a qualitative method where this method focuses on in-depth observation. Therefore, the use of qualitative methods in this research can produce a study of a phenomenon that is more comprehensive with literature research. Based on the background information provided previously, the author identifies problems that require further investigation. Among other things, what is the meaning of cryptocurrency in the current understanding and context and what is Islamic law regarding the use of cryptocurrency as a transaction tool.

Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study is to derive elements applicable to domestic university institutional research. This study attempted to identify various elements of organizational design by applying case study methods centered on overseas university institutional research organizations. As a result, in terms of the composition of university institutional research, the emphasis was placed on the name of the university institutional research organization, which was generally positioned as a core organization within the school by placing it directly under the control of major decision-makers, and there were differences between institutions in terms of personnel composition and team composition. The main tasks of university institutional research were survey, analysis consulting, request analysis, and data governance operation. When forming or reorganizing a new domestic university institutional research organization, it was suggested to establish a vision for the institutional research of the university with the purpose pursued by the university in mind, to deploy a large number of personnel in the areas of focus promotion, the importance of re-education and employment stability for existing personnel, data sharing, formation of consensus within the university, and to prepare a formalization procedure for request analysis work.

Published: July 2024

Esta pesquisa é oriunda do ciclo 2022-2023 do Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação Científica para o Ensino Médio, desenvolvida na Universidade Federal de Rondonópolis e na Escola Estadual Professora Amélia de Oliveira Silva. Consideramos importantes as legislações reparadoras que visam a obrigatoriedade do ensino de história e culturas indígenas, africanas e afro-brasileiras perpetradas pelas Lei no. 10.639/2003 e Lei no. 11.645/2008; no entanto, a materialização destas legislações depende da luta permanente para a sua inclusão nos currículos, nos materiais didáticos e nas práticas pedagógicas a fim de garantir uma educação democrática, inclusiva, antirracista, etc. Um dos obstáculos para a concretização das leis se deve ao epistemicídio que segue tentando escamotear, apagar e invalidar referenciais afro-indígenas dos espaços de produção de saberes. Nesse sentido, esta investigação apresenta uma abordagem qualitativa, do tipo teórico-bibliográfica, além da empiria realizada por meio da análise do material de ensino estruturado de Artes. O objetivo da pesquisa é o de analisar os impactos do epistemicídio nas representações sociais, presentes no material de ensino estruturado, dentro do componente curricular de artes. O material de ensino estruturado foi adotado pela Secretaria Estadual de Educação de Mato Grosso (SEDUC/MT), produzido pela Somos Educação/Sistema Maxi de Ensino e Fundação Getúlio Vargas.

Seed morphometry and NaCl and sucrose effect on germination rates and phytochemicals in sotol (Dasylirion acrotrichum) from the Chihuahua state, Mexico
Authors: Valero Galvan José , Garza-Vallejo Gerardo Iván , Quiñonez Martínez Miroslava , González-Fernández Raquel
Published: July 2024

In Mexico, “sotoles” (Dasylirion spp.) are used to elaborate the “sotol” liquor, handicraft making, and construction materials. These activities have enhanced the probability that sotol populations could decline because plants are extracted directly from their native ecosystems, given no commercial sotol plant species exist. Furthermore, from an ecological point of view, this genus has also been little studied regarding its seed morphology and germination process. The objective of this study was to characterize the morphometry of the D. acrotrichum seeds and to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of NaCl (30, 60, and 90 mM) and sucrose (30, 60, and 90 mM) on seed germination rates, seedling morphology, and the phytochemical content in the seedling leaves under in vitro conditions from plants grown in the Chihuahua State. The exogenous NaCl and sucrose treatments influenced the germination speed index, mean germination time, and mean germination speed. The NaCl treatment impacted the total weight, root weight, and leaf length of seedlings, the content of chlorophyll a, sugar, and phenolics, and the antioxidant activity determined by FRAP. Besides, the sucrose treatment affected the seedling length, the content of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll, and sugars, and the antioxidant activity determined by FRAP and DPPH. These results could provide the guidelines to generate better afforestation programs in the areas affected by the overexploitation of the Dasylirion spp. and new information about the capacity of these species for developing under these types of stress in the natural environment.

Preferences of Lithuanian cybersecurity synonymous terms in different user groups
Authors: Rackevičienė Sigita , Utka Andrius
Published: July 2024

Cybersecurity is a rapidly developing domain, where emerging new concepts are usually first designated in English and then find their way into the usage of other languages. As the Lithuanian terminology in this domain develops, different types of synonymous terms appear in usage, which are treated differently by speakers. The article presents a terminology survey involving 593 respondents from various age groups, from different regions and expertise levels. In the survey, the respondents had to name the most suitable terms for 10 cybersecurity concepts: the respondents could choose the terms proposed in the questionnaire or they could propose their own terms and give the reasons why they made their choices. The concepts and their terminological designations were selected from the Lithuanian-English Cybersecurity Termbase, the dataset of which is based on bilingual parallel and comparable cybersecurity corpora. The quantitative and qualitative analysis of survey results reveals preferences for different types of terms, such as borrowings, metaphorical calques, and descriptive terms, and how these preferences differ across the two segments of respondents: students vs. graduates, and cybersecurity experts vs. general public. The results show that some terminological designations have been already established in the Lithuanian language, while most of them are still competing for their positions. The analysis of the reasons reveals that accuracy and clarity are the main factors for selecting a term. The research contributes to the standardisation of cybersecurity terms in Lithuania and provides insights into user preferences and the reasons behind them.
