The general-purpose polymers formation issues are solved using micro- and nanoelectronic technologies of new generation, for example a nanoimprint lithography. One of its subspecies, soft lithography, includes topology formation using soft master die fabricated by hard mold imprint. Therefore, engineering study of possibility of hard molds self-dependent fabrication for the purposes of optoelectronic data bus formation for new generation printed circuit boards using general-purpose polymer materials is a priority. In this work, to rationalize the purchasing cost of an expensive hard mold of soft lithography, an original technological process for a hard mold fabrication based on the SU-8 photoresist has been developed and implemented. During the performing of the proposed technological process, the reason for the negative slope (T-topping) formation of soft lithography hard mold walls made of SU-8 photoresist was determined. A series of cut-off UV filters for optical wavelengths less than 350 nm has been developed and fabricated to eliminate T-topping. Based on the UV radiation intensity experimental measurements data from the i-line mercury lamp of the automated alignment and exposure system EVG620 NT, the UV radiation intensity attenuation dependences on the functional layer thickness of the developed optical UV filter for 365 and 400 nm wavelengths are plotted. The developed UV filters application effectiveness has been proven due to T-topping elimination during the technological process of producing the soft lithography hard mold test topology. The use of soft lithography will make it possible in the future to create a new generation printed circuit boards with a built-in optoelectronic data bus in the form of a polymer planar optical waveguides array and optical input / output elements.

Micromechanical accelerometers have wide range of applications in industry and robotechnics due to the main advantages such like low power consumption, small dimensions and weight, low cost in serial production. Therefore, micromechanical accelerometers research and development received priority. In this work, finite element analysis software was used for modeling the sensitive element, for this method allows providing static and modal analysis. The results of preliminary calculations of the scale factor of the accelerometer that can be assembled based on the developed sensor and sigma-delta transducer, are provided. The article describes the tech-nological process of manufacturing sensitive elements of micromechanical accelerometers. In this case, anisotropic liquid chemical etching of silicon was used, which makes it possible to obtain different profiles of the corresponding crystallographic planes. The results of a study of the influence of technological errors on the geometric dimensions of sensitive elements are provided: the dependence of the value of the lateral undercut of silicon on the accuracy of the angular alignment of the mask with the crystallographic axis of the plate (100) was revealed. The design of the sensitive element of the micromechanical accelerometer has been developed. The performed simulations have proved out the performance of the structure, the calculations have shown the change in the scale factor in the temperature range from –60 to +125 °C, the value of the nominal capacity and capacity with a change in linear acceleration in the range of ± 60 g. In the manufacture of a sensitive element on the basis of the studies carried out, it is possible to ob-tain a lateral undercut of no more than 5 microns at a depth of anisotropic liquid chemical etching of 250 microns for KDB-0,01 plates with an orientation tolerance of ± 30 arc minutes or with a misorientation of the same magnitude allowed during exposure.

Authors: Al-Bayaty FH , Ibrahim OE , William C , Khairuddin NA
Published: March 2022

Objective: This retrospective study aims to evaluate the possible effects of antihypertensive drugs on alveolar bone loss in patients with chronic periodontitis. Methods: 50 patients on antihypertensive drugs selected as the experimental group and 50 patients with chronic periodontitis with no known systemic illnesses as control group were randomly selected as the study samples. Orthopantomographs were obtained, calibration and assessment of alveolar bone loss was performed by using the computer software program available in the faculty, through radiographic linear measurement procedure. Premolars, first and second molars of both maxilla and mandible were measured from the most apical point to the cementoenamel junction for mesial and distal aspects in the form of millimetres and percentile of the root length. Data was statistically analyzed using independent t-test and Analysis of Covariance in SPSS Version 23 with significance at P-value, p<0.05. Results: A total of 2428 sites were measured. Analysis has shown that there is significant difference in alveolar bone loss in experimental group and control group (p=0.002). Bone loss in the experimental group was less (16.28 ± 9.48) compared to the control group (22.66 ± 12.58). Within the experimental group, there was no significant difference for the duration of antihypertensive drug intake. However, the bone loss was more among the males (19.71 ± 11.22) than the females (12.99 ± 5.99). Conclusion: Antihypertensive drugs appear to have a positive effect on alveolar bone loss progression. Patients under these drugs exhibit lower levels of bone loss compared to those who are not.

El pintor erudito: Larco y los libros sobre pintura
Authors: Pedroni Juan Cruz
Published: March 2022

En la década de 1940 el pintor Jorge Larco inicia una trayectoria como historiador y crítico de pintura. Durante el auge editorial argentino sus textos se publican en colecciones de libros sobre arte de las firmas Poseidón, Futuro y Losada; en 1964, completa el encargo de una historia de la pintura que se publica en Madrid y, años después, colabora con la colección Pinacoteca de los genios. Entre las condiciones que posibilitaron esa práctica de escritura focalizamos en las modalidades asumidas por la producción de libros sobre artes plásticas en la Argentina y en la imagen del pintor erudito como estrategia identitaria. Sostenemos que la figura de autor en los textos de Larco se construye entre la posición del testigo privilegiado y la del estudioso y, en consecuencia, sobre dos modelos de autoridad: la experiencia del viajero y el conocimiento de los libros.

El siguiente artículo pone en discusión la intencionalidad del sincretismo religioso presente en la evangelización de México en el siglo XVI. En la simbiosis particular que se produce entre los elementos prehispánicos y la arquitectura europea cristiana, ¿puede hablarse de una disposición consensuada de estos elementos, es decir, autorizada por los frailes, o más bien evidencia un acto de rebeldía de los nativos para resguardar su cultura y creencia? Como caso de estudio fue seleccionado el registro fotográfico de cuatro piedras con relieves prehispánicos empotradas en cuatro edificios cristianos de Cuautitlán, Huaquechula, Cholula, y Tzintzuntzan. El escrito pretende ampliar el término sincretismo y explorar sus diferentes maneras de manifestarse en el periodo delimitado.

Content warning: murder, sexual assault, corporal punishment
The King County Archives is home to records created by the King County Office of Public Safety and its successor agency, the Sheriff's Office. Among the records held by the King County Archives are police investigative files created during the disappearance and murder investigations of a number of young women killed in the 1970s. These files would colloquially become known as the “Ted Bundy collection” to both staff and researchers. This article, written from the perspective of a processing archivist working on the “Ted Bundy collection,” explores how emotionally challenging content may disturb typical archival operations like processing, describing, digitizing, and providing access to a collection. Utilizing a feminist ethics of care, this paper interrogates the act of balancing King County Archives' mandate for open government records while attempting to be sensitive toward the victims, victims’ families, and other survivors of that period of public anxiety, researchers of myriad intentions, as well as the collection's stewards. This article examines ways that the Archives has failed some of these stakeholders in attempting to protect others, including staff, and asks how to remedy this failure with iterative processing, description, and other work with the collection.

Radical Empathy in the Context of Suspended Grief
Authors: Arroyo-Ramírez Elvia
Published: March 2022

Archivists are inextricably bound to records creators, subjects, and donors not only through the work they do to ensure the preservation and access of these records, but through their affective relationships with each of these groups. Managing archival collections about grief, trauma, and death form part of many of career trajectories of practicing archivists, but we leave little space in the academic curriculum, and the profession, to acknowledge how this affects archival processes, workflows, and each other.
In this article, I would like to highlight a case-study about suspended grief, or grief experienced, witnessed, and re-lived throughout an archive, and the mutual or secondary grief archivists may experience when processing collections about traumatic events and experiences. The mutual grief experienced, witnessed, and re-lived by the subject, in this case, Argentine poet and human rights activist Juan Gelman; the donor, Gelman’s widow, Mara La Madrid; and my own, I argue, had a cathartic influence in the way I interacted with the donor, the subject, the materials, and the way they were described.

PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA): a narrative review of its biogenesis, function, and emerging role in lung cancer
Authors: Mukherjee Pritha , Bhattacharjee Shamee , Mandal Deba Prasad
Published: March 2022

Cancer remains elusive in many aspects, especially in its causes and control. After protein profiling, genetic screening, and mutation studies, scientists now have turned their attention to epigenetic modulation. This new arena has brought to light the world of noncoding RNA (ncRNA). Although very complicated and often confusing, ncRNA domains are now among the most attractive molecular markers for epigenetic control of cancer. Long ncRNA and microRNA (miRNA) have been studied best among the noncoding genome and huge data have accumulated regarding their inhibitory and promoting effects in cancer. Another sector of ncRNAs is the world of PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs). Initially discovered with the asymmetric division of germline stem cells in the Drosophila ovary, piRNAs have a unique capability to associate with mammalian proteins analogous to P-element induced wimpy testis (PIWI) in Drosophila and are capable of silencing transposons. After a brief introduction to its discovery timelines, the present narrative review covers the biogenesis, function, and role of piRNAs in lung cancer. The effects on lung cancer are highlighted under sections of cell proliferation, stemness maintenance, metastasis, and overall survival, and the review concludes with a discussion of recent discoveries of another class of small ncRNAs, the piRNA-like RNAs (piR-Ls).

Authors: Kachave R. N. , Mundhe A. G.
Published: March 2022

Aim

Nebivolol and valsartan are used in the treatment of hypertension. So, this study was conducted for the purpose of determining bioavailability/bioequivalence of nebivolol and valsartan in human plasma.

Materials and Methods

The chromatographic separation was performed on Symmetry C18 (150 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) column using 0.01 N potassium dihydrogen phosphate (pH 3.0):acetonitrile (60:40) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and a detector wavelength of 280 nm. The retention times of nebivolol and valsartan in plasma were found to be 3.1 and 4.3 min, respectively.

Results

The method was validated statistically and by recovery studies. The linearity concentration was acceptable in the range of 0.5–10 ng/mL for nebivolol and 400–8000 ng/mL for valsartan. The lower limits of quantification were 0.5 ng/mL for nebivolol and 400 ng/mL for valsartan, which reached the levels of both drugs possibly found in human plasma. Per cent recoveries were obtained as 97.78% and 98.11% for nebivolol and valsartan, respectively.

Conclusion

The proposed method is simple, rapid, accurate, precise and gives us knowledge about the pharmacokinetics and therapeutic drug monitoring in clinical laboratories.

Authors: Ražná Katarína , Nôžková Janka , Vargaová Angéla , Harenčár Ľubomír , Bjelková Marie
Published: March 2022

Naturally occurring lignans are present in seeds, nuts, cereals, vegetables, and fruits. Lignans play various roles in plants and their multipurpose functions of different organisms including humans is considerable. They are involved in plant defence mechanisms through their antioxidant, antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. The lignans content may be affected by a variety of factors such as genotype, tissue type, geographic origin, local environmental conditions, nutrition, and plant maturity. Interactive relationships between individual factors are also considered. This review aimed to summarize the biological functions of lignans for plants and empasize the importance of these compounds for the added value of individual genotypes of plant food resources. Understanding the biological functions of lignans in plants can provide solutions to the ever-increasing requirements for the production of functional foods. Flaxseed is the richest source of lignans, and as such is considered the model species for lignans studies. Within our review, one paragraph is focused on the properties and biological functions of flax lignans.

Published: March 2022

In this paper we analyse the center and centralizer of an element in the context of reversible regular hypergroups, in order to obtain the class equation in regular reversible hypergroups, by using complete parts. After an introduction in which basic notions and results of hypergroup theory are presented, particularly complete parts, then we give several properties, characterisations and also examples for the center and centralizer of an element for two classes of hypergroups. The next paragraph is dedicated to hypergroups associated with binary relations. We establish a connection between several types of equivalence relations, introduced by J. Jantosciak, such as the operational relation, the inseparability and the essential indistin-guishability and the conjugacy relation for complete hypergroups. Finally, we analyse Rosenberg hypergroup associated with a conjugacy relation.
Compression Resistance of Concrete
Authors: Pamfil Alexandra , Mihai Petru
Published: March 2022

The paper presents the main mathematical relationships for the evaluation of the compressive strength of Portland cement concretes made over time by researchers of worldwide recognized scientific value. The authors use in their relations the influence factors on the value of the compressive strength and the conditions that the components of the concrete must meet. Each mathematical relation was verified by the authors through complex laboratory research and by imposing restrictive conditions for achieving the mechanical performance and durability of the studied concrete. It presents the advantages, disadvantages and scope of use of relations, as well as the possibilities for their application for the present. The relationship established by Feret in 1892 (also reformulated by him in 1896) is a qualitative relationship, which takes into account the absolute volumes occupied by cement, water, occluded air and the quality of the cement; the relationship established by Bolomey in 1935 and completed by the Russian scholar Skramtaev is a quantitative relation, which takes into account the dosages of cement, water and the quality of cement and aggregates. Feret’s relationship, updated in 1999 by François de Larrard, as well as Bolomey’s relationship, updated in 1979 by Dreux-Gorisse, proved their validity and usefulness in evaluating the mechanical performance of Portland cement concrete.

Published: March 2022

Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) are modern photovoltaic (PV) modules which are integrated into the building’s envelope. Usually, these devices replace the conventional roofing system, but they may be also integrated into the facade. The modules integration has a significant advantage in limiting the overall cost of the construction. Furthermore, building integrated photovoltaics, in comparison to non-integrated ones, don’t require stand-alone systems or allocation of land. This paper presents the state-of-the-art review regarding the existing BIPVs technologies. Also, in the second part of the paper, future research directions are discussed.
Effect of Design Parameters on Shear Lag in Orthotropic Deck of Steel Road Bridges
Authors: Moga Cătălin , Pondichi-Alb Claudia , Suciu Mircea
Published: March 2022

The phenomenon of shear lag refers to the increases of the bending stresses near the flange-to-web junctions, and the corresponding decreases in the flange stresses away from these junctions.

In the plated structures with wide flanges, such as in the orthotropic deck of the steel road bridges, shear lag caused by shear strains, may be taken into account by a reduced flange width concentrated along the webs of the steel plate girders.

In the norm EN 1993-1-5, the concept of taking shear lag into account is based on effectives width of the flange which is defined in order to have the same total normal force in the gross flange subjected to the real transverse stress distribution as the effective flange subjected to a uniform stress equal to the maximum stress of the real transverse distribution.

This paper presents some aspects concerning the shear lag phenomenon and a design analysis taking into account the geometrical parameters such as the stiffeners thickness, flange width and the girder span for a steel deck of a road bridge.
Implementation of the Bernstein-Vazirani Quantum Algorithm Using the Qiskit Framework
Authors: Tudorache Alexandru-Gabriel , Manta Vasile-Ion , Caraiman Simona
Published: March 2022

This paper describes the basics of quantum computing and then focuses on the implementation of the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm, which can be seen as an extension of the Deutsch-Josza problem (that solves the question on whether a function is balanced or not). The idea behind the B-V algorithm is that someone can find a secret number (sequence of bits) using only one measurement, unlike the classical counter-part, that requires n measurements, where n is the number of bits of the secret number. The implementation of this algorithm, using the Python programming language, along with the Qiskit framework (an open-source library for quantum operations from IBM), illustrates how to create and simulate a circuit for such an algorithm. The circuit is dynamically generated for the required number (which in practice is received from a different source) and is used to measure the probability of each qubit. The algorithm can also be extended for different types of data and can be used for signal or image processing, as well as applications in cryptography.
Estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) functions in the hypoxic injury of microglial cells
Authors: Deng Chao-Yang , Zhu Ting-Ting , Lian Shuai , Wang Jian-Fa , Wu Rui , Zheng Jia-San
Published: March 2022

Introduction

Hypoxia is a common pathological condition after spinal cord injury. Oestrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRα), as a key regulator of energy metabolism and mitochondrial functions, plays an important role in maintaining cell homeostasis. However, its role in hypoxic spinal microglia has not been fully elaborated. This study investigated the receptor’s activity when these cells are hypoxic and used as an in vitro model.

Material and Methods

In this study, microglia (BV2) were exposed to cobalt chloride as a hypoxic model, and the inverse agonist of ERRα, XCT790, and pyrido[1,2-α]-pyrimidin-4-one were used to regulate the expression of the receptor to explore the ERRα-related mechanisms involved in hypoxic spinal cord injury (SCI).

Results

ERRα promoted autophagy in BV2 cells and inhibited the activation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and the expression of anti-inflammatory factors under hypoxic conditions. It also promoted the expression of fibronectin type III domain containing protein 5 (FNDC5).

Conclusion

When a hypoxic SCI occurs, ERRα may maintain the homeostasis of spinal cord nerve cells by regulating autophagy and the p38MAPK/nuclear factor-kappa B cell and FNDC5/brain-derived neurotrophic factor signalling pathways, which are beneficial to the recovery of these cells.
Experience of using contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination in the most common malignant neoplasms of the liver
Authors: Katrich A. N. , Polshikov S. V. , Fisenko E. P.
Published: March 2022

Aim.To study the features of contrast enhancement of malignant neoplasms of the liver in patients with and without cirrhosis (LC), to study the differences in the dynamics of contrast enhancement of liver are metastatic lesions (MTS) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Material and methods.A retrospective analysis results 58 patients with HCC (group 1) and 51 patients with liver metastases (group 2) was carried out based on morphological data. According to the criterion for the presence of LC, group 1 was divided into two subgroups. The main method of radiological diagnostics was contrast enhancement ultrasound (CEUS).Results.The indicators of the dynamics of the Wash-in of an ultrasound contrast agent into the HCC node and the dynamics of the drug WASH-OUT from the focus in patients with LC did not significantly differ from those in patients without cirrhosis. HCC is characterized by the onset of leaching of the ultrasound contrast agent after 62 seconds from the beginning of the study, which significantly differs from MTS (p <0.05). The parameters in predicting the G3 stage of the tumor were as follows: the parameter “onset of WASH-OUT” of the from the focus <79 sec, the parameter “time of maximum WASH-OUT” of the ultrasound contrast agent <270 seconds. In our opinion, certain difficulties are presented by the diagnosis of highly differentiated carcinomas due to the absence of the WASH-OUT phenomenon in 50% of patients. Differential diagnosis of metastases should be based on a combination of a number of signs, the most important of which, in our opinion, are: early onset of elution of ultrasound contrast agent, “black hole” symptom, peripheral ring-shaped enhancement in arterial phase.Conclusion.The data obtained with the help of CEUS confirm the effect of “arterialization of hepatic blood flow” in patients with LC. Differences in the parameters of contrasting HCC nodes in subgroups of patients with and without LC are not statistically significant. The polymorphism of the signs detected in MTS in the liver is due to the morphology of the primary tumor and the size of the neoplasms. Differential diagnosis should be based on a combination of signs of the dynamics of ultrasound contrast agents.

Playing for Power: The European Worker Sport Movement and the Seeds of the American Labour Sports Movement, 1919-1940
Authors: Robinson James
Published: March 2022

In the late 1930s until the early 1950s, a large Labor Sports movement existed in the United States, especially in unions under the leadership of Socialists or Communists. I argue that it is impossible to understand the Labor Sports movement outside of this wider global context, because Labor Sports in the United States were directly linked to Worker Sport via both individuals and organizations. Indeed, Americans with knowledge of Worker Sport sought to establish similar institutions in the United States, even though the results were ultimately quite different. Labor Sports was inspired by Worker Sport, and so to understand the American Labor Sports, I will start with the European Worker Sport. American left-wing sports organizing prior to the rise of the CIO largely sought to create the American wing of Worker Sport, albeit with limited success.
Fluid–Structure Interaction Modeling of Flowfields Within Kevlar-Walled Wind Tunnels
Authors: Szőke Máté , Borgoltz Aurélien , Devenport William J.
Published: March 2022

A detailed three-dimensional (3D) two-way coupled fluid–structure interaction simulation of a hybrid anechoic wind tunnel (HAWT) test section is presented with modeling all important effects, namely, turbulence, Kevlar wall porosity, and deflection. The complete 3D flowfield around a 3-ft chord NACA0012 placed into a HAWT test section is assessed. The Kevlar deflections are captured using finite element analysis, whereas 3D Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes computational fluid dynamics simulations are used to resolve the flowfield. Source terms are used to model the transpiration flow across the pores of the Kevlar fabric. Results are validated against an extensive experimental dataset. Aerodynamic properties of the airfoil are validated using airfoil pressure coefficients, airfoil wake pressure coefficients, and lift and drag coefficients. Boundary effects are validated against Kevlar wall pressure coefficients, Kevlar displacement, and transpiration velocity through the Kevlar fabric. Overall, a good agreement has been found among all comparisons presented. While some minor discrepancies were observed, these primarily stem from geometrical irregularities of the model and wind tunnel unresolved in the computational fluid dynamics. Overall, the fluid–structure interaction model now enables a detailed assessment of HAWTs to enhance their performance and can support experimental testing.

Традиции тувинского рода ремесленных (искусных) Сааялар
Authors: Ооржак Валерий Окпан-оолович
Published: March 2022

В статье представлено исследование состава отдельно взятой родственной группы тувинцев, традиционных видов деятельности, занятий и навыков — шевер Сааялар аал-аймаа (рода ремесленных (искусных) Саая), членом которой является сам автор. Источниковой базой исследования являются авторские наблюдения, полевые материалы, рассказы-воспоминания представителей старшего поколения.

Шевер Сааялар относятся больше к Аксы-Барлыкским Сааялар Барун-Хемчикского района. Помимо Аскы-Барлыка, они проживали в близлежащих местечках Ажыг-Кара-Суг, Чайлаг-Оюм, Ак-суг, Кыштаг-Оюм, Көжээлиг, Көөп-Сөөк Бай-Тайгинского района. В последнее время семьи стали жить в пос. Кызыл-Мажалык Барун-Хемчикского района, в городах Ак-Довурак, Кызыл, в других районах республики. Имеются представители аймака, живущие в других регионах России. Самым известным старейшим представителем шевер Сааялар является Когел Мижитейевич Саая (1931–2021), член Союза художников СССР.

Представлена информация о составе рода, восходящего к предку в седьмом колене Саая Кара-Дарган (прим. 1805–1855). Дана справка о том, почему род называется шевер. Приведены истории из жизни Дарган-Хелина (прим. 1830–1905). Он был искусным кузнецом (дарган), много лет учился в Тибете, имел буддийскую степень хелиң. По возвращению на родину он, наряду с богослужением, занимался изготовлением божественных фигур, украшений для буддийских храмов, ювелирных изделий. Он научил всему и своих детей, внуков.

Ремесло, совместная деятельность связывали поколения, родственников, сплачивали людей, стимулировали к постижению новых знаний. Основной костяк рода сумел сохраниться. Его представители продолжают заниматься разными видами ремесленничества и искусства.
«Затерянный мир»: тувинская культура в центр-периферийной интерпретации геокультурного и социокультурного пространства
Authors: Попков Юрий Владимирович , Тюгашев Евгений Александрович
Published: March 2022

В статье осуществлен анализ тувинской культуры на основе использования центр-периферийной теоретической модели, а также субъектно-ориентированного подхода в анализе диалога культур. Объектом исследования является тувинская культура в многоаспектном измерении, предметом — особенности ее представления в горизонте центр-периферийной интерпретации.
Своеобразие тувинской культуры во многом определяется особым внутриматериковым местоположением Тувы. На протяжении длительного времени являясь периферией разных держав (империй), она одновременно выступает центром Азии, располагаясь на территории труднодоступной и географически изолированной естественными преградами. Культурная опосредованность действия географического фактора определяет формирование инверсивных эффектов центрации тувинской культуры, а также динамичность соотношения в ней статусов центра и периферии в процессе исторического развития.
Делается вывод об амбивалентности тувинской культуры в горизонте центр-периферийной теоретической рефлексии. Для ее характеристики авторы предлагают использовать метафору культурного палимпсеста как своеобразного наслоения элементов разнообразных культурных комплексов.
«Проклятые жизни» и ценностный кризис в тувинском обществе
Authors: Ламажаа Чимиза Кудер-ооловна , Бахтикиреева Улданай Максутовна
Published: March 2022

В работе представлен анализ содержания монографии антрополога, доктора наук Константиноса Зорбаса (K. Zorbas) «Шаманские диалоги с невидимой темнотой в Туве, Сибирь. Проклятые жизни» (“Shamanic Dialogues with the Invisible Dark in Tuva, Siberia. The Cursed Lives”), которая вышла в 2021 г. в издательстве Cambridge Scholar Publishing. В монографии исследуется особый тип практик, которые являются частью ритуалов, предлагаемых шаманами в Кызыле — по снятию проклятий, который, как считается, люди накладывают друг на друга в том числе с помощью шаманов с целью причинить вред здоровью, финансовому положению и пр.

Монография, вышедшая на английском языке, раскрывает ту сторону социокультурной жизни тувинцев, которая мало обсуждается в российском тувиноведении. Авторы рецензии обсуждают три заинтересовавших их сюжета издания. К. Зорбас утверждает, что распространение практики шаманских проклятий в Туве стало результатом социально-экономических разочарований и ненадежности 1990-х гг., атмосферы социально-групповых конфликтов, всеобщего недоверия. Авторы полагают, что эти практики стали скрытой частью архаизационных тенденций в обществе в период кризиса социальных трансформаций.

Авторы также разбирают рассуждения К. Зорбаса ценностного кризиса и распространения в обществе стяжательства, определение шаманства своеобразным «онтологическим правительством»; наблюдения за разными клиентами шаманов и обсуждение причин принятия русскими жителями республики идей шаманизма.

Особый акцент авторы делают на том, что исследование «темных» практик шаманизма выполнено ученым-аутсайдером. Для ученых-инсайдеров эта тема относится к разряду табу-тем, поскольку им невозможно полностью отрешиться от своей этнокультурной и религиозной идентичности, а также установок в культуре, ряда религиозных запретов.
