Authors: Conceição dos Santos Katrine , Oliveira Campos Danusa
Published: September 2024

A água ao longo dos anos vem sofrendo uma degradação em termos de qualidade e quantidade, que conduz à possibilidade de escassez de sua forma potável. Neste contexto, o planejamento ambiental sustentável dos recursos hídricos se mostra essencial para minimizar os impactos. Assim, este estudo objetivou mapear a capacidade natural e ambiental de produção de água da bacia hidrográfica do Rio Salgado, localizada no sul da Bahia. A metodologia adotada consiste no uso da Análise de Multicritérios em ambiente Sistema de Informação Geográfica para a determinação da capacidade de produção de água da bacia utilizando metodologia proposta por Campos (2014). Para tanto, foram considerados os elementos naturais e antrópicos formadores da paisagem e suas inter-relações com a produção de água. Os resultados mostraram a Capacidade Natural de Produção de Água das paisagens classificadas como: média e alta; e a Capacidade Ambiental de Produção de Água das paisagens como: baixa, média e alta. A pastagem foi a atividade mais impactante. Houve redução significativa em áreas com 'Alta' capacidade de produção de água (295 km2), aumento das áreas com 'Média' capacidade (719 km2) e de paisagens com 'Baixa' capacidade de produção de água (24,5 km2).

Authors: Homobono Jaqueline , Palhares José Mauro
Published: September 2024

O estudo analisa a dinâmica espaço-temporal dos focos de calor em Tartarugalzinho, Amapá, de 2001 a 2022, destacando a relação entre esses focos e os fenômenos climáticos El Niño e La Niña. A pesquisa utilizou técnicas de geoespacialização para identificar padrões de densidade dos focos e sua correlação com o desmatamento e a precipitação. Os resultados mostram que as áreas próximas à Reserva Biológica do Lago Piratuba são consistentemente vulneráveis a incêndios florestais, principalmente durante os eventos de El Niño. O estudo revela que o desmatamento e a expansão agrícola são fatores significativos que influenciam a ocorrência de focos de calor, sugerindo a necessidade de políticas de conservação mais eficazes na região.

Published: September 2024

The goal of this study, which employed the quantitative method of correlational design with temporal thinking and significant historical time learning as research variables, was to ascertain the relationship between the degree of temporal thinking and significant historical time learning as part of the competencies in the social sciences. The participants consisted of 178 Peruvian high school students. The research technique used was a survey with a questionnaire made up of 20 multiple-choice items, with reliability confirmed by sufficient Cronbach's alpha, and review by expert judgment. The results of the study revealed statistically that the level of temporal thinking is significantly related to the level of significant learning of the historical time. Also, Spearman's correlation coefficient with a positive relationship of low level is evidenced. In conclusion, the study’s findings indicated that the understanding of historical time as part of temporal thinking acts as a cognitive organizer of historical knowledge, and therefore, determines the significant learning of historical time.

Exploring gamified learning: student engagement and academic achievement perspectives
Authors: Berdousis Ioannis
Published: September 2024

This qualitative study investigates the experiences and perceptions of undergraduate students within gamified learning environments. Utilizing a phenomenological approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 participants from diverse academic disciplines. Thematic analysis revealed that students generally perceived gamification positively, citing increased engagement and motivation as key benefits. Personalization options and clear goals were identified as significant factors influencing student engagement, while the impact of gamification on academic achievement varied among participants. Challenges such as technical issues and concerns about equity were also noted. These findings contribute to theoretical understandings of motivation and engagement in educational contexts and have practical implications for educators and policymakers seeking to optimize the effectiveness of gamified learning approaches in higher education. Further research is needed to explore the long-term effects of gamification on student outcomes and address associated challenges.
Keywords: Academic achievement; gamified learning environments; higher education; student engagement; qualitative study.

SYNTHETIC NEMATICIDES IN ITALY: PAST AND PRESENT ROLE IN THE MANAGEMENT OF PLANT PARASITIC NEMATODES AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES OF CONTROL
Authors: GRECO NICOLA , MINUTO ANDREA , d’ERRICO FRANCESCO PAOLO , d’ERRICO GIADA
Published: September 2024

Although plant damages caused by phytoparasitic nematodes has been known at world level since the second half of the 19th century, the most effective methods for their management were discovered only in the past century. At first, plant parasitic nematodes (PPN) were controlled by the same products used against insect pests (carbon disulfide, chloropicrin, methyl bromide), but since 1940, with the discovery of the nematicide activity of the soil fumigant DD (dichlopropane-dichloropropene), chemical nematicides played a pivotal role in increasing the yield of many agricultural crops. In the second half of the past century and especially during its last two decades, the high demand from the farmers for chemical products having immediate nematicidial activity stimulated the interest of many chemical companies in patenting and marketing an increasing number of new chemical products. They were both fumigants (methyl bromide, chloropicrin, dibromoethane, bromochloropropane, dichloroethane, dichloropropane, dichloropropene, dazomet, metam sodium, metam potassium, methyl isothiocyanate, dimethyldisulfide) and non-fumigants (aldicarb, abamectin, benfuracarb, cadusaphos, carbosulfan, carbofuran, benfuracarb, fosthiazate, fluopyram, fenamiphos, ethoprophos, oxamyl, iprodione, thionazin). In the meantime, awareness increased about the negative impact of plant protection products were having on the environment and the need to regulate their approval and use in the European Union (EU). This resulted in a number of EU decrees adopted by all member States to restrict the marketing and use of these products. This led to a drastic reduction in p.a. nematicides on the market, which are already in limited numbers compared to fungicides and insecticides. In this phase of transition towards eco-sustainable agriculture, as alternative products are not yet available for all crops and for all the different species of parasitic nematodes, agricultural operators are having considerable difficulties. The future of the market for synthetic nematicides is not promising. Today, only a handful of active ingredients (dazomet, metam sodium, metam potassiium fenamiphos, fosthiazate, fluopyran, abamectin) are registered in EU. However, studies are underway to search for less polluting products, such as plant extracts, volatile organic compounds, and nano-formulations. The use of these products should be integrated with the implementation of appropriate crop systems, the use of cover crops, soil amendments, rigorous sanitation practices, and resistant planting material, obtained both by conventional and modern technique, for a sustainable control of PPN. Key Words: nematicides, nematode control, chemical products
No limiar do teleassalariamento
Authors: Parra Adriano
Published: September 2024

A fim de aprofundamos as querelas que envolvem a chamada uberização ou plataformização laboral, propomos um deslocamento teórico desses conceitos-chave em direção à categoria teleassalariamento, a qual expõe o vínculo imanente entre: a. o fenômeno da subordinação algorítmica do trabalho vivo aos interesses de lucratividade das startups e empresas tecnodigitais que se valem desse novo modelo de negócios; e b. as formas sociais do modo de produção capitalista contemporâneo que estabelecem a legalidade desse processo. Herdadas da crítica da economia política, essas formas de sociabilidade do capital se apresentam inerentes à própria gênese e ao desenvolvimento de atividades econômicas que vinculam cada vez mais o mundo do trabalho às novas tecnologias da informação e comunicação (NTICs). Nossa hipótese central passa, portanto, pela compreensão de que, para aprofundar o rico debate existente acerca dessa temática, é necessário explicitar a natureza das relações sociais de produção que se encontram ocultas pelo brilho ofuscante do famigerado compartilhamento em rede. Relações essas constituídas pelo ‘velho’ assalariamento do trabalho em benefício do capital, agora sob modalidades de agenciamento laboral à distância outrora inexequíveis. Apontamos, ainda, que o predomínio do modelo econômico agroextrativista exportador brasileiro e sua dimensão restrita no mercado formal (da força) de trabalho acentuam essas novas modalidades de prestação de serviços on-demand.

Emperyalizm Kuramları ve David Harvey’in Yeni Emperyalizm Kuramı Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme
Authors: Ugurlu Semih , Hayır Kanat Meryem
Published: September 2024

Emperyalizm teriminin terminolojik olarak kökeni Latince “imperium” (imparatorluk) sözcüğüne dayanmaktadır. Emperyalizm kavramı tarihsel süreç içinde birçok farklı anlamda kullanılmış olsa da günümüzde bilinen yaygın anlamdaki kullanımı 19. yüzyılın sonlarına doğru ortaya çıkmıştır. Emperyalizm kavramı bu yüzyılda genel olarak “bir devletin veya milletin güç ve etkisini kendi çıkar ve istekleri doğrultusunda başka devletler ve milletler üzerinde hâkimiyet kurmak için kullanması” olarak tanımlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada emperyalizm kavramının tanımı, kökeni ve doğuşuna, emperyalizmin tarihsel süreç içerisindeki gelişimine ve gelişim evrelerine, emperyalizm kuramlarına ve Hilferding, Lenin, Bukharin, Luxemburg, Baran, Amin, Magdoff, Wood, Foster gibi Marksist emperyalizm kuramcılarının görüşlerine yer verilmiştir. Ardından kendisi de üçüncü dalga marksist emperyalizm kuramcıları arasında yer alan David Harvey’in ‘’yeni emperyalizm’’ kitabı bölümler halinde incelenip analiz edilerek Harvey’in ‘’yeni emperyalizm’’ kavramı ile ilgili görüşlerine yer verilmiştir. Sonuç kısmında ise çalışmada yer alan marksist emperyalizm kuramcılarının görüşleriyle David Harvey’in yeni emperyalizm görüşü karşılaştırılmış ve böylelikle ‘’yeni emperyalizm’’ kavramı ve kuramı, Harvey ve çalışmada bahsi geçen emperyalizm kuramcılarının görüşleri çerçevesinde analiz edilerek incelenmiştir.
L’agroforesterie : atouts et points de vigilance pour répondre aux défis de l’élevage bio
Authors: TROUILLARD Martin , BOSSHARDT Sara , DERBEZ Floriane , DESAINT Brieuc , DUFILS Arnaud , MESBAHI Geoffrey
Published: September 2024

La philosophie de l’agriculture biologique implique que les pratiques agricoles s’inspirent des mécanismes naturels de développement du vivant. À ce titre, la déconnexion des productions animales et végétales opérée depuis la deuxième moitié du XXe siècle entrave la fourniture de nombreux services écosystémiques, et fragilise les exploitations qui prennent la décision de renoncer à certains aspects de la « modernisation » agricole.
Dans cette optique, l’agroforesterie présente un fort potentiel pour accompagner le développement de l’élevage biologique. Cette pratique agroécologique consiste à faire coexister des arbres avec une ou plusieurs autres productions agricoles : en créant des hétérogénéités à l’échelle de la parcelle et du territoire, l’association arbres/animaux augmente la diversité des plantes fourragères, génère des habitats pour la biodiversité, stimule le fonctionnement des sols, et favorise le bien-être et la santé des animaux. Elle permet aussi de stabiliser les exploitations sur le plan économique, et d’améliorer l’image de l’élevage auprès des citoyens et consommateurs.
L’agroforesterie implique une complexification du système productif, multipliant ainsi les éléments qui le constituent et leurs interactions. De ce fait, elle se heurte à certaines difficultés potentielles de conception, pilotage et gestion, nécessitant l’acquisition de connaissances et de compétences, et la production de nouveaux référentiels.
À partir d’une synthèse bibliographique, cet article explore les bénéfices et limites de l’agroforesterie dans les systèmes d’élevage en régions tempérées, en adoptant le double point de vue du pâturage en zones arborées, et des cultures pérennes (arbres fruitiers, vignes) ou sylvicoles accueillant des animaux.
Les défis et opportunités dans la relation de travail entre éleveurs de ruminants en agriculture biologique et vétérinaires
Authors: DUVAL Julie , BONNET-BEAUGRAND Florence
Published: September 2024

Afin de contribuer au développement de l’agriculture biologique (AB) en élevage, cet article vise à mettre en lumière la façon dont la collaboration entre éleveurs en AB et vétérinaires contribue à la genèse et au transfert de pratiques de gestion de la santé animale plus vertueuses. Dans une première partie, nous présentons le contexte général de la relation de travail entre éleveurs et vétérinaires. Ensuite les résultats de la revue de littérature montrent que la relation éleveur-vétérinaire per se, est rarement l’objet étudié. Celle-ci apparaît comme un résultat annexe, notamment quand on s’intéresse aux stratégies de gestion de la santé animale des éleveurs en AB. La littérature actuelle ne permet pas une compréhension fine des interactions. Elle permet en revanche d’identifier un certain nombre de tensions dans la relation de travail entre éleveurs en AB et vétérinaires qui peuvent expliquer une relation parfois ambivalente. Ces tensions concernent des valeurs et choix stratégiques divergents pour la santé des animaux et dans les approches curatives. Les éleveurs travaillent avec une vision stratégique de la santé tournée vers la résilience globale du troupeau et ont des attentes envers les vétérinaires sur ce sujet. Des pistes pour un accompagnement adapté portent sur des approches préventives qui permettent de s’adapter finement à chaque exploitation, qui mobilisent plus l’expertise vétérinaire notamment dans le diagnostic ou qui s’inscrivent dans des configurations collectives. Le transfert des enseignements tirés en AB vers d’autres contextes donne toute son actualité à l’étude de la relation éleveur-vétérinaire en AB.
Quelles génétiques pour les systèmes d’élevages certifiés en agriculture biologique ?
Authors: CANARIO Laurianne , BÉDÈRE Nicole , VANDEPUTTE Marc , BOICHARD Didier , RAOUL Jérôme , LARZUL Catherine
Published: September 2024

Dans les systèmes d’élevage sous cahier des charges agriculture biologique (AB), les animaux peuvent être plus vulnérables car ils sont élevés dans des environnements moins contrôlés. Élever des animaux issus de programmes de sélection conçus pour les systèmes conventionnels dans des systèmes moins intensifs peut s’avérer inadéquat s’ils ne savent pas composer avec les fluctuations de la disponibilité et de la qualité des ressources alimentaires. Les cahiers des charges en AB font peu mention de races ou de lignées et les productions animales AB actuelles peuvent souffrir d’un manque de ressources génétiques adaptées. Les éleveurs AB tendent à formuler des besoins génétiques spécifiques à leurs systèmes d’élevage avec un intérêt majeur pour la robustesse, ce qui suppose pour les généticiens et les sélectionneurs d’être en mesure de fournir une offre somme toute différente et plus diversifiée. Peu de travaux portent sur les objectifs de sélection spécifiques au cahier des charges AB, et l’offre génétique attendue par les éleveurs concernés est souvent réfléchie en rupture avec les systèmes conventionnels. Il est nécessaire de repenser l’utilisation des méthodes de sélection animale dans le cadre de l’AB. Cet article présente l’état des connaissances et les moyens génétiques qui sont mobilisables pour adapter les animaux issus de populations sélectionnées aux systèmes biologiques.

La France est actuellement au premier rang des productions européennes de poulets biologiques. Cette production ne représente toutefois encore que quelques pourcents de la production nationale. L’élevage avicole biologique est souvent considéré comme respectueux du bien-être animal et de l’environnement. Cependant, au-delà de ces images positives que l’élevage avicole biologique et les produits biologiques véhiculent, certaines contraintes déjà identifiées limitent leur développement. Le contact avec la faune sauvage présentant un risque sanitaire, la gestion du parcours, les tensions sur l’environnement dues à une excrétion des déjections sur le parcours difficilement maîtrisables et la sensibilité au contexte économique et aux comportements de consommation sont autant d’obstacles. L’élevage biologique offre néanmoins des opportunités 1) pour l’animal : le parcours facilite l’expression de nombreux comportements et permet la consommation d’insectes et de plantes possédant diverses propriétés (nutritionnelle, médicinales…) ; 2) pour l’éleveur : une amélioration des conditions de travail ainsi qu’une plus grande satisfaction sont mises en avant ; 3) pour l’environnement : le parcours constitue une source de biodiversité.
Après une présentation des conditions d’élevage des poulets biologiques en France et en Europe, nous proposons d’identifier les barrières à l’extension de l’élevage biologique et les leviers/opportunités pour les dépasser.

Cette synthèse fait le point des connaissances sur les différentes dimensions de la qualité des produits issus d’élevages en agriculture biologique (AB) vs conventionnelle et sur les méthodes développées pour les authentifier. Les pratiques d’élevage étant variables, en AB comme en agriculture conventionnelle (AC), les résultats sont hétérogènes. Nous soulignons les pratiques à l’origine des différences observées, ce qui permet d’éclairer les conséquences des possibles trajectoires de l’agriculture biologique. De manière générale, la qualité est plus variable pour les produits AB, en lien avec un moindre niveau d’intrants et/ou une plus grande variabilité des conditions d’élevage, ainsi qu’une moindre sélection génétique pour le poulet de chair. Les propriétés améliorées sont la teneur en acides gras polyinsaturés, notamment oméga 3, plus élevée pour le lait de vache et les viandes AB, une réduction du risque de résidus de médicaments et d’apparition de résistances bactériennes aux antimicrobiens. Mais l’accès au plein air et la période d’élevage souvent plus longue augmentent la probabilité et la durée d’exposition des animaux aux éventuels contaminants environnementaux et le risque de leur bioaccumulation dans les produits. Nous identifions des antagonismes entre différentes dimensions de la qualité, notamment pour les viandes ovine et porcine. Les implications de la plus grande variabilité de la qualité des produits AB sur leur acceptabilité par les consommateurs et l’adaptation des procédés de transformation restent peu étudiées. La fiabilité des méthodes d’authentification se heurte à la variabilité des pratiques d’élevage, car elles se fondent sur les différences dans l’alimentation des animaux.
Tinjauan Maqashid Syariah Kontemporer terhadap Keadaan tanpa Kewarganegaraan
Authors: Miftakhul Marwa Muhammad Habibi
Published: September 2024

Statelessness has become a global problem. It is estimated that there are currently 12 million stateless people worldwide. This paper aims to analyze in depth the issue of statelessness according to contemporary maqashid sharia. The normative legal research method is employed in this paper as it uses secondary data obtained through literature study. Literary sources related to the object of the study are analyzed descriptively and qualitatively by utilising a conceptual approach. The results of this research show that Islam does not actually provide a specific provision regarding statelessness, since such situation is more related to the domestic laws enforced in each country. The paradigm of contemporary maqashid sharia is directed more towards the concept of development and rights rather than protection and preservation. Statelessness prevents a person from obtaining and developing basic human rights, such as individual rights, collective rights, civil rights, political rights, economic rights, social rights and cultural rights. Thus, statelessness must be mitigated due to the harms that it brings rather than the good.Keywords: Harms, Maqashid Sharia, Statelessness.
AbstrakKeadaan tanpa kewarganegaraan telah menjadi masalah global. Diperkirakan saat ini terdapat 12 juta orang tanpa kewarganegaraan di seluruh dunia. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis secara mendalam keadaan tanpa kewarganegaraan menurut maqashid syariah kontemporer. Metode dalam penulisan artikel ini menggunakan jenis penelitian hukum normatif karena memakai data sekunder yang diperoleh melalui studi pustaka. Sumber kepustakaan yang berkaitan dengan objek kajian kemudian dianalisis secara deskriptif kualitatif menggunakan pendekatan konsep (conceptual approach). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa sebenarnya Islam tidak memberi penjelasan spesifik mengenai keadaan tanpa kewarganegaraan, karena keadaan ini lebih berkaitan dengan hukum yang diberlakukan pada suatu negara. Paradigma maqashid syariah kontemporer lebih diarahkan pada konsep development and rights daripada protection and preservation. Keadaan tanpa kewarganegaraan menghambat seseorang dalam mendapatkan dan mengembangkan hak dasar manusia, seperti hak individu, hak kolektif, hak sipil, hak politik, hak ekonomi, hak sosial, dan hak budaya. Oleh karena itu, keadaan tanpa kewarganegaraan harus dihindari karena lebih banyak mendatangkan mudarat dibandingkan maslahat.Kata Kunci: Keadaan tanpa Kewarganegaraan, Maqashid Syariah, Mudarat.

Background and aims: It is not yet well understood whether physical activity (PA) may protect against elevated mortality in major depression. Answering this question has implications for policy and practice. The aim of this study was to estimate the association of PA with mortality in major depressive disorder (MDD). Methods: We used data from the Canadian Community Health Survey—Mental Health and Well-Being (CCHS 2002), conducted in 2002 (n = 31,200), and the Canadian Community Health Survey—Mental Health (CCHS-MH 2012), conducted in 2012 (n = 20,935), for this analysis. Recreational PA was measured using metabolic equivalent of task (MET) values, classifying participants as active, moderately active, and physically inactive in the 2002 survey and as very active, active, moderately active, and physically inactive in the 2012 survey. Major depression was assessed using a fully structured diagnostic instrument, the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. Mortality data was obtained through data linkage. The analysis used Cox proportional hazard models to explore the associations. Results: PA in the 2002 survey was protective: HR 0.69 (95% CI 0.64–0.74) and HR 0.77 (95% CI 0.72–0.83) for the active and moderately active groups, respectively. In the 2012 survey, the HRs were 0.55 (95% CI 0.43–0.70), 0.57 (95% CI 0.43–0.75), and 0.59 (95% CI 0.46–0.76) for the very active, active, and moderately active groups, respectively. No interactions were significant. Conclusions: These results indicate that PA protects against elevated mortality to the same extent in those with MDD as in those without. These findings, which arise from a representative sample, support continued efforts to integrate PA into the management of depressive disorders at the population level.

Background: We explored the potential value of serum MUC5AC (sMUC5AC) as a biomarker to guide perioperative management of early-stage pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy (NAT). Methods: We performed enzyme-linked immunoassays using a human MUC5AC kit (NBP2-76703) in serum samples obtained from The Ohio State Uni-versity biorepository (between January 2010 and June 2021). Univariate (UV) and multivariate (MV) Cox regression models were used to quantify progression-free survival (PFS); clinical and pathological variables were adjusted in the MV models. UV logistic regression analysis was utilized to examine the association of sMUC5AC with pathological features and survival. Results: Overall, 23 samples (19 FOLFIRINOX, 3 gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel, 1 FOLFOX) were available for analysis. The median age was 66 years, and 52% were females. sMUC5AC was associated with a) treatment response, margin status, and residual disease (R0 vs. R1/R2) (all P

One-third of approximately 10 million deaths due to sepsis in a year are due to acute lung injury, and there is no effective treatment yet. Due to its high phenol content, Punica granatum L. bark extract exhibits high antioxidant activity. Amifostine is a free radical scavenger that converts into active thiol in tissues. This study aimed to investigate the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects of 2 different doses of PG peel extract and amifostine in sepsis-related acute lung injury. Fifty rats were randomly allocated into 5 groups. Group 1 served as the control group with no sepsis. The remaining groups 2-5 served as the cecal-ligation-puncture (CLP) groups. Group 3 was administered 200 mg/kg amifostine intraperitoneally (ip) 15 minutes before sepsis induction. Groups 4 and 5 received, respectively, 250 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg PG peel extract by oral gavage 9 days before and 30 minutes after the CLP procedure, with a total of 10 doses. MMP-2 and MMP-9 were investigated by immunohistochemical methods. MMP-2 and MMP-9 concentrations significantly increased in the sepsis group compared to the other 4 groups. This study provides evidence that Amifostine and Punica granatum pericarp benefit lung tissue in a rat model of sepsis induced by cecal-ligation puncture.

Objectives: the aim of this study was the assessment and monitoring of the safety and quality of the existing water supplies in Ibb and Taiz governorates from the microbial side and testing the quality of drinking water in the Ibb and Taiz governments and comparing it with the World Health Organization. Methods: the water samples (99 samples) taken from some water sources, distribution reservoirs, and different regions were studied for bacteriological analysis, in which they were inoculated into culture media using two methods: the presumptive test for the most probable number and the confirmatory test for bacterial identification. Results: the results indicated the non-existence of indicator bacteria that were used to indicate the possible presence of fecal bacteria among 24 (24.24%) water samples taken from Taiz governorate, while the presence of an unacceptable number of Escherichia coli in house tanks (30%) was indicated among 75 (74.25%) water samples taken from Ibb governorate. Conclusions: the results of the study in Taiz governorate show that the water is fit for human consumption, as well as the samples taken from water sources and distribution networks in Ibb governorate, but the results of the samples taken from house tanks showed that the water is not fit for human consumption and needs to be treated.
Engaging Vulnerabilities in the Analysis of Political Hate and Threats: The Case of Nasty Rhetoric in Swedish Climate Politics
Authors: von Malmborg Fredrik
Published: September 2024

Following the course of critical researchers in management and organisation studies, striving to move away from traditional norms of academic writing that has created an empty, homogenous time with a focus on counting rather than content towards a more vertical writing, I dig deep down in this paper along the slope of what touches me deeply – a democratic decline in climate politics. Resonating with my own experiences of hate and threat campaigns, not locking my own vulnerabilities in, I analyse qualitatively the usage, reasons, contents, senders and targets of ‘nasty rhetoric’ in Swedish climate politics, and the implications thereof for democracy. With the 2022 elections to the Swedish parliament, a far-right populist nativist party gained tangible powers dictating the content and process of Swedish climate politics. In less than two years, Swedish climate politics have turned into an antidemocratic divisive politics portraying climate science as “a point of view”, female journalists writing about climate change and climate policy as “crypto environmentalists”, “motherfuckers” and “moron hags” that should be “fired” and “raped”, and the climate justice movement as “terrorists” and “a threat to Swedish democracy” that should be “sent to prison” and “executed”. Such ‘nasty rhetoric’ is used not only by anonymous trolls in social media, but by the prime minister, cabinet ministers and parliamentarians, even in debates in the Swedish parliament. It has inspired the far-right extremist movement to use physical violence. Use of nasty politics aims to silence the opponents to the government’s climate policy, the political opposition, climate scientists, the climate justice movement and journalists, breaching liberal and deliberative democratic norms such as legitimacy, accountability and justice. It is a powerful tactic that leaves its targets with an anxious fear of losing control and often a need for disappearance. Many targets resign or stay silent. I chose to break the silence and write differently about the issue.
Spatial Analysis of Middle-Mile Transport for Advanced Air Mobility: A Case Study of Rural North Dakota
Authors: Bridgelall Raj
Published: September 2024

Integrating advanced air mobility (AAM) into the logistics of high-value electronic commodities can enhance efficiency and promote sustainability. The objective of this study is to optimize the logistics network for high-value electronics by integrating AAM solutions, specifically using heavy-lift cargo drones for middle-mile transport and using the mostly rural and small urban U.S. state of North Dakota as a case study. The analysis utilized geographic information system (GIS) and spatial optimization models to strategically assign underutilized airports as multimodal freight hubs to facilitate the shift from long-haul trucks to middle-mile air transport. Key findings demonstrate that electronics, because of their high value-to-weight ratio, are ideally suited for air transport. Comparative analysis shows that transport by drones can reduce the average cost per ton by up to 60% compared to traditional trucking. Optimization results indicate that a small number of strategically placed logistical hubs can reduce average travel distances by more than 13% for last-mile deliveries. Cost analyses demonstrate the viability of drones for middle-mile transport, especially on lower-volume rural routes, highlighting their efficiency and flexibility. The study emphasizes the importance of utilizing existing infrastructure to optimize the logistics network. By replacing truck traffic with drones, AAM can mitigate road congestion, reduce emissions, and extend infrastructure lifespan. These insights have critical implications for supply chain managers, shippers, urban planners, and policymakers, providing a decision support system and a roadmap for integrating AAM into logistics strategies.
