Den nordiska bronsålderns slutskede – kronologi, definition och forskningsproblem
Authors: Sörman Anna , Ojala Karin
Published: October 2024

Since the establishment of the Three Age System, the Bronze Age–Iron Age transition has often been difficult to pinpoint, and the final Bronze Age hard to delimit. Oscar Montelius, the founder of the six sub-periods for the Nordic Bronze Age, doubted the usefulness of the sixth and final period in his later works. Like many others since, he discussed the successive transition from bronze to iron as a challenge. This somewhat diffuse period has often “slipped through the cracks”; excluded from Late Bronze Age “proper”, but not yet embraced by Early Iron Age scholars. This paper calls attention to the varying and sometimes contradictory definitions and characterizations of the final Bronze Age Period VI. Was it a period of profound change, continuity, decline or flourishing contacts and wealth? Does it correspond to 800–650 BCE, 700–500 BCE, 700–600 BCE or perhaps 550–400 BCE? Through examples from past and current research, we identify challenges and possibilities in how this period is approached. The paper ends with six propositions for studies of Period VI: to study continental parallels in relation to new international research, to further integrate “metal-focused” academic research with results from contract archaeology, to investigate regionality, to better understand the timing and impact of the Subboreal–Subatlantic climatic transition, to increase collaborations between Bronze Age and Iron Age specialists, and to experiment with various period definitions.

Published: October 2024

Integrated with predictive analytics and machine learning, AI has exceeded the traditional approaches of health care contexts by focusing on patient outcomes and costs. This paper aims to discuss the adoption of integrated AI in healthcare systems, categorizing these by how AI predictive models help improve patient health by proactively estimating the course of their illness and its potential impact, prioritizing patient readmissions, and developing effective individualized treatment strategies. The research also identifies more important savings realised through avoiding redundant tests, better utilisation of resources, and shorter hospitalisations. In the current study, the authors present concrete findings for AI-driven Predictive Analytics based on realistic scenarios and quantitative data of health care systems. It also points to the fact that healthcare organisations adopting the use of AI technology have gained an objective that reduced their operations costs by 25% and improved patient outcomes whereby the readmission rates were reduced by between 15% and 20%. Furthermore, there is an evaluation of the ethical considerations of applying AI in healthcare, especially on the subject of patient’s information security. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to systematically review AI applications in healthcare and provide detailed suggestions for better understanding the general impact of AI in healthcare to enhance patient outcomes and manage costs. With advancement in artificial intelligence technology, there is a growing importance of how the technology can transform the health care industry.

Published: October 2024

The paper presents a case study illustrating the implementation of a combined master's level and third-year bachelor's Lab-on-a-Chip Microdevices course using a Challenge-Based Learning (CBL) approach. We describe the course's design, the implementation, and the observed impact of adopting this innovative approach. We use a survey and a focus group discussion to investigate students' perceptions of learning through the CBL approach. The gathered insights highlight the appreciation for practical application and industry collaboration in the course. Some issues related to class preparation and clarity of guidelines for working on challenges have also been identified, and a re-design addressing these issues was co-created between the instructors and students during the focus group session. Our study offers a blueprint for designing hands-on experiment-oriented courses in collaboration with industry and highlights the potential of CBL to enhance technical proficiency and foster innovation in interdisciplinary engineering education.

Authors:   Black Sea Agricultural Research Institute, Samsun, Türkiye, Sari Omer , Celikel Fisun ,   Ondokuz Mayıs University, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Horticulture, Samsun, Türkiye
Published: October 2024

Boxwoods are constantly pinched to shape and form hedges, and Promalin® application is used to boost their shoot yield. Having good root development is crucial for the healthy development of plants; however, the effects of such applications on plant root development have generally been ignored in previous studies. Hence, this study evaluated the effects of applications on the root growth of two boxwood species (Buxus sempervirens L. and Buxus balearica Lam.) during the summer dormancy period. Pinching and Promalin® (0, 1 000, 2 000, and 4 000 ppm) were applied to one-year-old seedlings at three different times. Results showed that pinching had a negative effect on root development in both species and both years. Root development was lower in pinched plants than in control plants, which were not pinched. Promalin® at 2 000 ppm was found to be the most effective application on the root parameter. Root development was also higher in the second year than in the first year, depending on temperature, humidity, and the duration of sunshine. It is recommended to apply 2 000 ppm of Promalin® and not prune B. sempervirens. However, if pinching is to be performed, application of Promalin® will be useful to improve root development. For B. balearica, applying pinching and Promalin® together will help increase root development depending on the application time (in periods when the temperature is high).

Afectación del servicio público de la Justicia debido a la pandemia ocasionada por la covid-19. Derechos de los ciudadanos
Authors: Uris Lloret María Consuelo
Published: October 2024

La presente ponencia presenta la incidencia que ha tenido la pandemia por la covid-19 en la Administración de Justicia desde distintas perspectivas. En primer lugar, estudia la promulgación de varias normas que han modificado la Ley 29/1998, de 13 de julio, Reguladora de la Jurisdicción Contencioso-Administrativa (LRJCA), con la consecuente atribución de competencias a los órganos de esta jurisdicción en relación con las restricciones o las limitaciones de los derechos fundamentales de las personas. En segundo lugar, la ponencia examina el impacto que ha causado el riesgo de contagio en algunas actuaciones procesales y la forma en que se ha alterado la relación de la ciudadanía con el servicio público de la Justicia. Por último, el presente texto estudia si esa alteración del normal funcionamiento del servicio ha producido una demora en la tramitación y resolución de asuntos en esta jurisdicción, y si se ha experimentado un aumento del número de entrada en determinadas materias.
La aplicación de las directivas comunitarias a la protección del lobo: planes de gestión y caza
Authors: Martínez Olalla Ana María Victoria
Published: October 2024

Desde el Convenio relativo a la conservación de la vida silvestre y del medio natural en Europa, hecho en Berna el 19 de septiembre de 1979, ratificado por España, el lobo es considerado en el ámbito europeo como especie de fauna estrictamente protegida. No obstante, el régimen jurídico de protección otorgado en España a esa especie distingue dos momentos: antes y después de la Orden TED/980/2021, de 20 de septiembre, por la que se modifica el Anexo del Real Decreto 139/2011, de 4 de febrero, para el desarrollo del Listado de Especies Silvestres en Régimen de Protección Especial y del Catálogo Español de Especies Amenazadas, a través de la cual se corrige la anomalía en nuestro ordenamiento jurídico derivada de la distinción entre poblaciones al norte del río Duero o al sur de ese río, toda vez que solo a estas últimas se las excluía de ser objeto de medidas de gestión, pudiendo ser las que se encontraban al norte del Duero cazables. Ante esta situación, conviene analizar, por un lado, la normativa europea y la jurisprudencia emanada del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea y, por otro, el régimen jurídico español y las sentencias dictadas por el Tribunal Supremo y los Tribunales Superiores de Justicia en relación con los planes de gestión y caza del lobo, especialmente en Castilla y León y Cantabria.

Este documento intenta mostrar la imagen de la contratación temporal tras la reciente reforma legal, consciente de las dificultades interpretativas que se suscitarán en la práctica consecuencia de la vaguedad e indeterminación de los conceptos utilizados. Quizás se esperaba más, pero menos es nada. Partiendo de un terrible diagnóstico sugerido por la presencia de síntomas anormales (tasas de temporalidad, desempleo, precariedad, etc.) se ofrecen como remedios la simplificación de los contratos y reducción de la tasa de temporalidad, la regulación eficaz de los contratos formativos y medios alternativos de adaptación a los cambios en el contexto económico y a las transiciones productivas.
Reconocimiento facial por inteligencia artificial: aspectos procesales penales
Authors: Velasco Núñez Eloy
Published: October 2024

Sin pretender entrar en más consideraciones técnicas que las estrictamente precisas para poder entender fenómenos tecnológicos, vamos a analizar algunas de las posibles cuestiones jurídico-procesales del reconocimiento facial por inteligencia artificial. Dada su irreversibilidad, los juristas debemos centrar nuestro papel en pretender las máximas garantías para evitar que una aplicación abusiva o arbitraria de esta tecnología implique un abaratamiento o la reducción de nuestros derechos fundamentales, sobre todo a la hora de ser cosificados como objetos de la misma. Por ello, el presente artículo pretende analizar los derechos concernidos cuando se aplica el reconocimiento facial mediante inteligencia artificial, así como las garantías jurídicas que podrían reducir o minorar los errores, cuando no los abusos de poder, por parte de quienes las gobiernan y realizan.
La jurisprudencia del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea sobre independencia judicial y los límites del artículo 19 del Tratado de la Unión Europea: ¿dónde queda la autonomía de los Estados miembros?
Authors: Iglesias Sánchez Sara
Published: October 2024

La jurisprudencia del Tribunal de Justicia sobre el artículo 19 del Tratado de la Unión Europea ha confirmado el amplísimo ámbito de aplicación material de esa disposición. Ello, unido a las amplias facultades de los jueces nacionales para plantear cuestiones prejudiciales en los procedimientos ante ellos, significa que, en potencia, la práctica totalidad de los aspectos que configuran un sistema judicial -que tengan a su vez una potencial incidencia en la independencia judicial- pueden acabar de una forma u otra sometidos a la jurisdicción del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea. Tras unos iniciales desarrollos que pudieron hacer presagiar que la verdadera limitación del artículo 19 del Tratado de la Unión Europea podría venir de la mano de los criterios de admisibilidad, recientes sentencias ponen de relieve que el Tribunal parece haber recuperado su posición flexible y aperturista en relación con el requisito de la "relevancia" de las cuestiones prejudiciales como presupuesto para su admisibilidad. La cuestión de la amplitud del ámbito de aplicación y del potencial impacto del artículo 19 del Tratado de la Unión Europea con carácter general en los sistemas judiciales nacionales, fuera de los casos en los que un Estado miembro atraviese una situación de crisis del Estado de derecho, constituye una de las cuestiones inciertas que despiertan mayor interés en la actualidad.
Maternidad subrogada: la excepción de orden público y su vinculación con la jurisprudencia del Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos
Authors: Ser López Ana del
Published: October 2024

La filiación derivada de una gestación por sustitución que se determina en el extranjero en aquellos países que admiten esta fórmula de gestación suscita la problemática de sus efectos legales en otros Estados en los que la práctica se considera nula, como sucede en España. La respuesta es compleja cuando es preciso dar una solución a la situación real de los niños que ya se encuentran en nuestro país y se parte de la nulidad del contrato de origen. Se aborda el tema desde un punto de vista exclusivamente de técnica jurídica, en la que se han visto implicados, entre otros, el Tribunal Supremo, el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea y, especialmente, el Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos. Sobre los efectos que deben ser reconocidos, es fundamental la construcción de la excepción de orden público. Para alcanzar conclusiones útiles que sirvan de guía para la resolución de estos supuestos cada vez más frecuentes, se debe previamente hacer un análisis lo más exhaustivo posible de los distintos pronunciamientos del Tribunal Supremo, el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea y, especialmente, el Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos. Se intentará concluir con la construcción de los márgenes del concepto actual de orden público internacional que está integrado por los principios del orden público europeo que se revelan en las resoluciones del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea y el Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos.

Published: October 2024

With the title of "The Value, obstacle and Strategy of physical education teaching in primary school with digital empowerment", this paper discusses the value, obstacle and optimization strategy from three angles. Through the research, it is found that digital technology can bring great value in primary school physical education, including the advantages of improving teaching effect, enhancing student participation, personalized learning and all-round development. However, digital physical education also faces some obstacles, such as the problem of capital investment, the lack of teachers' digital literacy and professional ability, and the unequal investment in educational resources. In order to optimize the digital effect of primary school physical education, six optimization strategies are proposed: increasing funding investment and sponsorship, enhancing teachers' digital literacy and professional ability, optimizing the investment and distribution of educational resources, promoting students' and parents' participation and recognition, formulating privacy and security policies, and establishing a digital primary school physical education evaluation system in the digital era. Through the implementation of these strategies, the digital development of primary school physical education can be further promoted and the teaching quality and students' comprehensive literacy can be improved.

Equipping The Saints: Collaboration Instead of Altercation
Authors: Nations Rick
Published: October 2024

There is a creative tension between qualitative and quantitative researchers which encompasses differences on a wide variety of topics. Perhaps the most concise overview of various aspects of this debate is contained in Smith (1994). Part of the national debate revolving around qualitative-quantitative evaluation centers on the topic of teacher-as- researcher (e.g., Sechrest, Winter 1993; Reichardt & Rallis, Spring 1994). The situation is no different in Florida. The 1992 special issue of the Florida Journal of Educational Research (Emihovich, 1992) has generated much comment. At least one such formal comment, and rejoinder, was printed in the 1993 issue (Davis, 1993; Emihovich & Students, 1993). These were followed by a symposium (Emihovich, 1993a) and an institute (Emihovich, 1993b). And recently, there was an article by Vitale and Romance (1994) in the latest issue of FJER which treated parts of this discourse. The purpose of this brief position paper is to present three perspectives of a person who has been trained in classical research methods, has read and received some training in qualitative research methods, and lives – daily – with the practical realities of holding a central office school board researcher/evaluator position.
Path Analysis of the Academic Achievement of Black Eighth Graders
Authors: Wood Deril
Published: October 2024

This study analyzed the academic achievement of a nationally representative sample of black eighth-graders (N = 2730) and their parents by examining the direct and indirect “effects” of family, personal and school variables on academic achievement. A literature review provided a theoretical basis by identifying nine explanatory variables that fit into three categories. Academic achievement was a composite of standardized test scores in reading, mathematics, science and social studies. Data were collected through the National Center for Educational Statistics Longitudinal Study (NELS:88). Path Analysis revealed that five of the nine explanatory variables were related to academic achievement. SES, motivation and ability demonstrated the largest direct effects on achievement. School variables demonstrated only negligible effects on achievement. Motivation and ability were the best mediators of family variables. The mediating effects of school variables were either negligible or absent. The reader is urged to use caution interpreting these results.
Gender Bias in the High School Canon Novels: A Subversion of Power
Authors: Connell Helen
Published: October 2024

This descriptive study investigates gender bias in the high school canon novels as identified by Arthur Applebee (1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993). An historical survey of the teaching of literature in the high school precedes the content analysis of the seven novels. The historical survey shows that most of the novels entered the high school canon during the 1960s. During the past three decades, these works have been subjected to a variety of critical interpretations, as well as assorted pedagogical strategies. The content analysis of the seven novels uses several critical perspectives. Gender bias exists in the focus on male protagonists and in the generalized idea of females as a dangerous presence. More specifically, the siren/whore image of women pervades the canon novels. Other stereotypes include the asexual older woman as pedantic authority figure. Women characters are subjected to violence, but this violence is rationalized. The high school canon novels perpetuate the ideology of the white Euro/ Anglo male as oppressor.

ANALYSING FACTORS INFLUENCING TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION BY UNORGANIZED RETAILERS USING UTAUT 2 FRAMEWORK
Authors:   ICFAI University, Jharkhand, India, Mookerjee Joydeep , Rajkumar M ,   ICFAI University, Jharkhand, India
Published: October 2024

The swift progress of technology has greatly altered the worldwide retail environment, but its implementation among loosely organised retailers, especially in developing markets such as India, has not been thoroughly investigated. This paper examines the determinants of technology adoption among unorganised merchants in Kolkata using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT 2) paradigm. The main objective of the study is to examine the influence of Perceived Value (PV) and Perceived Ease of Use (PEU) on the implementation of technology in this industry. The study employed a quantitative empirical approach, gathering data from 698 participants using standardised questionnaires. The data underwent analysis using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) and the Tukey HSD Post Hoc Test statistical tests. The results demonstrate that both perceived value (PV) and perceived ease of use (PEU) have a substantial impact on the adoption of technology. Specifically, higher-income groups tend to see more value and ease in utilising technology. The findings offer important perspectives for policymakers, technology suppliers, and retail groups to formulate focused approaches that promote the digitisation of unorganised retail, ultimately improving operational effectiveness and competitiveness. The present study enhances the overall comprehension of digital inclusion within the retail sector and its capacity to stimulate economic development.

Prime loss: A case study in operational risk
Authors: Mcconnell Patrick
Published: October 2024

In march 2008, opes prime, a small stockbroker in melbourne, australia, was placed into administration. this set off a chain of events that caused anz, one of australia’s largest banks, to become involved in a series of messy legal actions. by the end of 2008, losses at the bank had been estimated to exceed a$250m, with litigation still pending. the losses sustained by anz in the opes case constitute an ‘operational risk loss event’ as defined under new banking regulations, basel ii. unlike significant operational risk losses at other banks, such as those sustained by the national australia bank, the losses have not been attributed to so-called ‘rogue traders’. however, like those well-publicised disasters, similar systemic risk management failures were apparent and sowed the seeds for the losses that were eventually precipitated by the demise of opes prime. in a seminal work in decision literature, professor barry turner identified a number of features that are common to the development of ‘organisational disasters’, many of which are apparent in the events leading up to the losses at anz. this paper reviews the anz/opes case using turner’s framework, compares it to the events at other banks, and identifies some lessons for management, risk managers and regulators.
IT PROJECT MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORKS: EVALUATING BEST PRACTICES AND METHODOLOGIES FOR SUCCESSFUL IT PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Authors:   Master in Management Information System, International American University, Los Angeles, USA, Rahman Anisur
Published: October 2024

This study provides a systematic review of IT project management frameworks, examining the effectiveness, adaptability, and risk management strategies of methodologies such as Agile, Waterfall, PRINCE2, Scrum, and hybrid approaches. A total of 133 peer-reviewed articles were analyzed to gain insights into how these frameworks are being applied across various industries and project environments. The findings reveal that hybrid models, which combine the structured governance of traditional methodologies like Waterfall with the iterative flexibility of Agile, are becoming increasingly popular, especially in industries requiring both regulatory compliance and adaptability to changing requirements. Agile frameworks were shown to significantly improve project delivery speed, stakeholder satisfaction, and risk mitigation through continuous iterations and feedback loops, while traditional methodologies like Waterfall remain essential in sectors with strict documentation and control requirements. The review also highlights the critical role of risk management across all frameworks, with hybrid models offering the most comprehensive approach by integrating early-stage planning with ongoing risk assessment. Despite the success of these frameworks in IT-related industries, a notable gap was identified in their application to non-IT sectors, suggesting a need for further research to explore their broader applicability. This review underscores the continued relevance of traditional, Agile, and hybrid project management frameworks, while also pointing to future opportunities for expanding their use beyond IT.

प्राण, जिसे अक्सर महत्वपूर्ण जीवन शक्ति माना जाता है, सूक्ष्म ऊर्जा का प्रतीक है जो ब्रह्मांड दोनों में व्याप्त है और मानव शरीर के भीतर जीवन को सजीव करती है। इसमें न केवल सांस बल्कि शारीरिक कार्यों और मानसिक क्षमताओं के पीछे की सूक्ष्म शक्ति भी शामिल है। यह ऊर्जा नाड़ी नामक जटिल मार्गों से प्रवाहित होती है, जो शारीरिक स्वास्थ्य, मानसिक स्पष्टता और आध्यात्मिक कल्याण को प्रभावित करती है। प्राणायाम, नियंत्रित श्वास का अभ्यास, इस महत्वपूर्ण ऊर्जा को विनियमित और सुसंगत बनाने के प्रवेश द्वार के रूप में कार्य करता है। साँस लेने, छोड़ने और रोकने की विशिष्ट साँस नियंत्रण तकनीकों के माध्यम से, प्राणायाम का उद्देश्य नाड़ियों को शुद्ध करना, प्राणिक प्रवाह को अनुकूलित करना और संतुलन प्राप्त करना है। इसके लाभ शारीरिक स्वास्थ्य से परे हैं, मन को शांत करने, ध्यान केंद्रित करने और ध्यान की गहरी स्थिति को सुविधाजनक बनाने में सहायता करते हैं। प्राण और प्राणायाम मिलकर योग के अभिन्न अंग बनते हैं, जो समग्र कल्याण और आध्यात्मिक विकास के लिए जीवन शक्ति का उपयोग करने के मार्ग प्रदान करते हैं।“ Keyword- हठयोगप्रदीपिका, घेरण्डसंहिता, प्राण और प्राणायाम की अवधारणा

EFEITOS DE UM PROGRAMA DE INTERVENÇÃO DE CURTA DURAÇÃO NAS HABILIDADES MOTORAS FUNDAMENTAIS DE CRIANÇAS DO PRIMEIRO ANO ESCOLAR
Authors: Schulz Gabrieli , Müller Alessandra Bombarda
Published: October 2024

This study aims to evaluate the effects of an interventional program in the fundamental motor skills of children studding at the first year of Elementary School in São Leopoldo city, Rio Grande do Sul State. The study sample was composed by 40 children that were included in the study criteria, from these 21 were male with ages between six and seven years old. The procedures realized consisted on a “pre-test” followed by an Interventional Program with a “post-test”. The fundamental motor skills performances of the “pre-test” and the “post-test” were evaluated by the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-3). To analyze the effect of the motor interventional program in the fundamental motor abilities related with gender, generalized estimation equations were tested. The differences found were evaluated by the Bonferroni multiple comparison test, using Level of significance a<0,05. The results demonstrated significant difference in the medias of “pre-test” and “post-test” to all abilities tested by TGMD-3, except in the “running” during locomotion, where since the beginning of the tests children showed positive performance. There was no significant difference in the comparison of gender and motor abilities.
FAMÍLIA VIRTUAL E SEUS REFLEXOS NO DIREITO CONTEMPORÂNEO
Authors: Duarte Manaem Siqueira
Published: October 2024

O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar o conceito de família virtual e seus reflexos no direito contemporâneo, discutindo como os vínculos afetivos formados em ambientes digitais podem ser reconhecidos juridicamente, com base no direito à felicidade, cidadania e dignidade humana, que autorizam a autodeterminação das pessoas e asseguram a multiparentalidade, impondo efeitos civis como consequência do princípio da solidariedade familiar. A pesquisa utiliza-se de teorias antropológicas e jurisprudência recente para examinar a evolução do conceito de família, que passou de um modelo biológico para uma configuração mais ampla, centrada no afeto. O Provimento 83 do Conselho Nacional de Justiça (CNJ), ampliado pelo Provimento 149, regulamentam o direito e o procedimento para   reconhecer vínculos socioafetivos extrajudicialmente. Estes Provimentos, são analisados como possíveis vias para a formalização do pedido de reconhecimento de famílias virtuais. Embora ainda não haja regulamentação específica, o artigo argumenta que as interações digitais podem ser usadas como provas da existência de laços afetivos, abrindo espaço para o reconhecimento dessas relações no direito brasileiro. Como metodologia, este artigo envolve uma pesquisa qualitativa, de cunho descritivo, com a realização da pesquisa documental e bibliográfica. O estudo conclui que, ao adaptar os mecanismos legais já existentes, o direito pode acompanhar as mutações sociais e reconhecer juridicamente as famílias virtuais, impondo seus efeitos civis.
Exploring the Role of United States Legal Discourse in Creating, Sustaining, and Disrupting Vestiges of Slavery
Authors:   , Bey Hanf
Published: October 2024

This exploratory study starts from the proposition that the use of the racialized names “negro,” “colored,” “black,” and “white” represent vestiges of slavery that were socially and legally constructed, maintained, and perpetuated to validate a superior position for descendants of Europe in the United States, while assigning an inferior status to descendants of Africa in the United States. I further suggest that the use of these racialized names appear to resemble what Noonan (1976) described as a legal mask: a legal construct that veils the humanity of participants in the legal process. Informed by Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Post-Colonialist Theory, this exploratory study aimed to explore the role of law and legal discourse in creating and sustaining racial differences between 1705-1857 and 1986-2017, and explore counter-hegemonic narratives in historic and contemporary legal texts as tools for dismantling vestiges of slavery. Utilizing the techniques of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), this exploratory study explores and compares the legal discourse for the use of racial names and ways of constructing race and racial differences. I discovered in the historic legal texts that legal actors often used hostile, “white supremacist” hegemonic legal discourse to create and maintain racial differences. Although the legal discourse today is much less overt and more nuanced, I found that many contemporary legal actors use their platform to disrupt racial hegemony as they attempt to remedy the mistakes of the past. This exploratory study breaks new ground by demonstrating that social workers can engage in sophisticated transdisciplinary research and enter a more active role in deconstructing and eliminating barriers of structural racism. My research has implications for social work research, leadership, and education.
