History of Arab Americans
Authors: Al-Deen Aminah
Published: August 2023

This concise reference covers the diverse roots of Arabs in America, tracing the changing face of this community from the 19th century until today.

From the restrictive immigration laws that the United States Congress passed against Arabs in the early 20th century to the backlash against this community following September 11, Arab Americans have faced both successes and challenges in their quest to become part of American culture. This timely study explores the history of this multifaceted people from their traditions, to their religious beliefs, to the role women play in society, their roots in war torn countries, and the impact of the War on Terrorism on their collective psyche.

An easy-to-read narrative and chronologically arranged chapters reveal the enduring story of Arab American immigration and immersion. Topics include perceptions of Arab immigrants, being Arab American in an age of terrorism, framing an American identity, and faith, beliefs, and community practices—both Orthodox Christian and Muslim. Throughout the work, profiles of famous Arab Americans underscore the importance of this culture to our American identity, featuring St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital founder Danny Thomas, rapper Omar Offendum, and others.
The History of Christianity
Authors: Daughrity Dyron B.
Published: August 2023

Christianity has been accused of being misogynistic, pro-slavery, and anti-science, and some say it is finally beginning its long decline. This book provides an entirely different side to the stories about this faith.

Why did Christianity become the largest religion in the world? Is it because it was misogynistic, pro-slavery, anti-science, and set on condemning those who didn't join it? This book investigates many of the misconceptions about Christianity and argues that there are good reasons this faith has become the world's largest.

The book includes chapters on various misconceptions related to the history of Christianity, such as the beliefs that Jesus was a meek and mild carpenter, the Roman emperor Constantine was insincere in his Christian faith, medieval Europe was devoutly Christian, and Christianity was anti-science. Each chapter explores how the historical misconception developed and spread, and offers what we now believe to be the historical truth contradicting the fiction. Excerpts from primary source documents provide evidence for the historical misconceptions and truths and help readers to respond critically to claims about Christian history.

Migration, Terrorism, and the Future of a Divided Europe
Authors: Deliso Christopher
Published: August 2023

The November 13, 2015 Paris terrorist attacks marked the definitive moment when the migration crisis became associated with terrorism, stoking an increasingly heated debate over the perceived dangers of migration, Islam, and extremist politics in Europe. The sudden emergence of migration as the mobilizing factor for European security, political discourse, and socio-economic realities has profoundly affected Europe's contrasting perceptions of its own identity and values, precipitating an increasingly global response to tackling migration challenges in Europe and worldwide.

Migration, Terrorism, and the Future of a Divided Europe: A Continent Transformed chronicles the turbulent events of the 2015-2016 migration crisis, creating a context in which future political, economic, social, and security trends in Europe can be understood. The study also examines in detail the deep history of the ideological origins and histories of treaties and policies that have defined the European Union and its guidance of the crisis. Readers will gain insight into the origins, factual realities, and projected ramifications for the continent's future security, politics, and socio-economic identity; the impact of media coverage on public perception; the differing policies and rhetoric of rival right- and left-wing parties in Europe; and the new security threats arising from a widened terrorist threat matrix that will comprise new targets, methods, and logistics. Finally, the book outlines the larger policy actions and trends expected, on the global level, towards handling future migration crises, and explains how this will have an impact on Europe.

This important new work is the cumulative result of author Chris Deliso's extensive academic background in European history and thought; his on-the-ground presence in the target region before, during, and after the crisis; and his interviews with security officials, diplomatic figures, and practitioners directly involved with shaping the policies that were visible during the crisis. Offering a broad historical context, the text portrays the current crisis within the context of a much longer institutional and ideological divide that has existed in Europe and shaped policies for almost a century.
The NFL National Anthem Protests
Authors: Haerens Margaret
Published: August 2023

This volume provides a concise but authoritative overview of the NFL national anthem protests and the fierce debates they have sparked about patriotism, constitutional rights, military service, police brutality, and social justice.

This book in the 21st Century Turning Points series is a one-stop resource for understanding the people and events changing America today. This volume is devoted to the NFL national anthem protests, which have triggered both fierce condemnation and spirited defenses since August 2016, when San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick first refused to stand for the anthem to bring attention to the issues of social injustice and police brutality.

NFL National Anthem Protests not only surveys the events that led to Kaepernick's decision but also traces the fallout from that choice—the decision by other players to join him, the angry response from some NFL fans and President Trump himself, and the frantic efforts of the league to keep the controversy from consuming the NFL. The book also uses those events and responses as a vehicle for deeper examinations of all of the issues they have raised, including the nature of peaceful protest, the place of the flag in American life, the constitutional parameters of free speech, and the facts about police brutality and racial discrimination in America.

Published: August 2023

Purpose.

The extraordinary evolution of beach handball requires the relationship between the specific internal and external load in this sport to be determined in order to continue its development. For this reason, the objective of this study was to compare won and lost game segments in beach handball matches to determine if there is a relationship between winning and losing a set and the external and internal loads experienced by an elite beach handball player.

Methods.

The data of 57 elite beach handball players were collected over ten matches, which were divided into time segments of 2 minutes each, making a total of 100 game segments. Data were collected using GPS and GNSS technology.

Results.

The results showed significant differences in the variables distance per minute (d = large in male and medium in female), velocity band 2 distance (d = very large in male and large in female) and band 3 distance (d = very large in male and medium in female), accelerations (number) (d = large in male and medium in female), player load per minute (d = medium in male and in female), velocity work/rest ratio (d = very large in male and in female) and total jumps (number) (d = medium in male and large in female).

Conclusions.

We conclude that the external and internal load variables that determine winning or losing a game segment in elite beach handball are distance per minute, velocity bands 2 (6–8.9 km/h) and 3 (9–11.9 km/h) distance, accelerations (number), player load per minute, velocity work/rest ratio and total jumps (number), both in the male and female categories. The highest values of these variables are observed in the won segments, except for the number of jumps in women.

The research was conducted in the middle school Noor Al-Kashf Al-Islami Bekasi in the second period of the academic year 2019-2020, starting from April 2020 to May 2020. Middle School Nur Al-Kashf Al-Islami Bekasi. The method used in this research is the experimental method. The community in this research includes all female students in the middle school, Noor Al-Kashf Al-Islami Bekasi, and the research samples are female students in the seventh semester, who number 70 students, and are divided into two classes, they are 35 students for the experimental class, and 35 students for the controlled class. In order to know the comprehension of the vocabulary of the Arabic language, the female students, the researcher used the final test, which is the written test. And the definition of this value after the tests are conducted, which is the normal test and the homogeneous test. As for the methods used to analyze the data, the t-test was used at the level of significance (0.05). Before doing the t-test, the researcher performs the natural test using Liliefors test. And the result of the normal test in the experimental class indicates that Lo (L account) is 0.136 and in the controlled class that Lo (L account) is 0.114 and L table for the experimental class is 0.886 (with samples of 35 students at the level of significance 0.05) and L table for the exact class is 0.886 (with samples of 35 students at the significance level 0.05). After knowing the normal test, it is indicated that Lo(L) is smaller than L. Accordingly, the table summarizes that the samples are normal. Without this, the homogeneous test uses the Bartlett test. From the result of the homogeneous test, 2X calculates 2,183>2X Table 3,841. Accordingly, the researcher summarizes that the data is homogeneous. In testing the hypothesis, the t calculation is 8.88 and the degree of freedom is 68. As for the t table of 1.67 at the level of importance (0.05), therefore the t calculation is 8.88 < t table 1.67, so the zero hypothesis (0H) is rejected, and the research hypothesis (1H) is accepted. In other words, there is a positive effect in the use of the educational method, the game of squares, in the comprehension of the vocabulary of the Arabic language among the students of the seventh class in the intermediate school, Nour Al-Kashf Al-Islami Bekasi. The result of the research indicates that the comprehension of the vocabulary of the Arabic language using the educational method, the game of squares, is higher and greater than the comprehension of the vocabulary of the Arabic language for students who were taught by the school without using the educational method, the game of squares.

Штат Калифорния является штатом номер один по количеству бездомных в Соединенных Штатах Америки. Учитывая численность населения этого штата, доля людей, которые борются с бездомностью, очень велика. Есть много причин и факторов, влияющих на эту проблему, включая правительственные постановления. В этом исследовании рассматривается, как правительственные постановления влияют на количество незащищенных людей в штате. Основная гипотеза заключается в том, что не существует достаточных и правильных мер / правил, которые могли бы решить эту проблему. Чтобы проверить эту гипотезу, я провел интервью, опрос и наблюдение без участия участников. Результаты показали, что высокий процент налогов, отсутствие бесплатных и доступных клиник, безработица тесно влияют на уровень бездомности. Несмотря на то, что эти проблемы решаемы путем интеграции новых нормативных актов, существуют некоторые потенциальные угрозы и факторы, которые не позволяют решить проблему.

California is the number one state in the USA for the number of homeless people. Taking into account the size of this state's population, the proportion of people who experience homelessness is very significant. However, there are multiple factors that contribute to this problem, including certain categories of government regulations. This study considers how certain government regulations affect the number of vulnerable people in the state. The main hypothesis is that there are not sufficient and feasible measures/regulations in force in California at this time to help resolve this problem. A series of proposals have been made which, if implemented at the California State Head of State level, could significantly reduce homelessness and thereby improve the lives of the marginalized population.

Sodobna dramatika in vprašanje dediščine neoavantgarde šestdesetih in sedemdesetih let
Authors: Troha Gašper
Published: August 2023

To some extent, contemporary drama is the heir of the neo-avant-garde of the late 1960s and 1970s. This time was that of the so-called performative turn, which pulled theatre away from representation and towards presentation. The subsequent development can be designated by various labels, such as postdramatic theatre, the aesthetics of the performative and, in the case of dramatic texts, the no longer dramatic theatre text, “In-Yer-Face” theatre, etc.
In Slovenia, a decisive turn from text to event took place towards the end of the 1960s. During this time, the first happenings and performance art pieces were taking place. In reviewing the performance Pupilija, papa Pupilo pa Pupilčki (Pupillja, Papa Pupilo and the Pupilceks), Veno Taufer went as far as to declare the death of literary theatre. At first glance, it would thus appear that contemporary playwriting is merely repeating earlier patterns. While contemporary playwriting may more radically formulate linguistic and aesthetic games, it deconstructs the dramatic form and thus radicalises the premises of the neo-avant-gardes; in the last two decades, we have been talking about a return to dramatic, post-postdramatic and dramatic drama, etc.
Through a comparative analysis of two of the more radical texts from Blaž Lukan’s anthology Generator:: za proizvodnjo poljubnega števila dramskih kompleksov (The Generator:: for Manufacturing Any Number of Drama Complexes), namely Dušan Jovanović’s Sinopsis za happening Hlapci (Synopsis for The Happening of Lackeys) and Rastko Močnik’s Generator, ki iz določenih enot in po preprostih pravilih proizvaja poljubno število dramskih kompleksov (A Generator that Produces Any Number of Drama Complexes from Given Units and According to Simple Rules) as well as Simona Semenič’s mi, evropski mrliči (we, the european corpses) and Varja Hrvatin’s Vse se je začelo z golažem iz zajčkov (It All Started with the Bunny Rabbit Goulash), the paper shows that the neo-avant-garde is more about the question of theatrical performances and the form of the dramatic text, while contemporary drama is more about the search for authenticity and dramatic effects.
Uprizarjanje literature in bralne uprizoritve
Authors: Orel Barbara
Published: August 2023

In 2005, on the initiative of playwright Simona Semenič and in close collaboration with performing arts theorist Rok Vevar, a group of playwrights and dramaturgs founded PreGlej within the Glej Theatre in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The group confronted the issues of playwriting and, within a few years, established a platform for the creation, development and international exchange of dramatic writing. Their work was committed to establishing the conditions necessary for creating dramatic texts. To this end, they used the form of staged readings – not only as a public presentation of dramatic plays but as a method for developing drama, bringing drama as a work in progress. The article shows that this kind of playwriting practice on Slovenian stages has its precursors in the experimental theatre practices of the 1960s and 1970s (as applied by the neo-avant-garde groups of poets 441/442/443, Nomenklatura and LKB – Literarni klub Branik, as well as in the performances of writers presenting their literary works at the Pekarna Theatre). Poets and writers staged their works, which were not primarily intended to be performed, creating theatrical forms of writing for the stage, which fit neither the conventions of drama nor the tradition of theatre. The staging of literature and staged readings are discussed in the context of performance writing, which characterises the multiple relationships between writing and performance, focusing on the process of writing as a performative act.
Performance Writing

Published: August 2023

While the emergence of new forms of performance writing in the 1960s and 1970s did not eliminate traditional forms of drama, they radically transformed the role of textuality in the theatre. This article argues that when liberated from the rules of dramatic writing and even syntax and grammar, performance writing brings an illocationary logic into textual production. The article concludes with a preliminary consideration of differences between experimental writing strategies and the latest text-generating AI.
Seasonal and interannual variability of the pelagic ecosystem and of the organic carbon budget in the Rhodes Gyre (eastern Mediterranean): influence of winter mixing

Abstract. The Rhodes Gyre is a cyclonic persistent feature of the general circulation of the Levantine Basin in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Although it is
located in the most oligotrophic basin of the Mediterranean Sea, it is a relatively high primary production area due to strong winter nutrient
supply associated with the formation of Levantine Intermediate Water. In this study, a 3D coupled hydrodynamic–biogeochemical model
(SYMPHONIE/Eco3M-S) was used to characterize the seasonal and interannual variability of the Rhodes Gyre's ecosystem and to estimate an annual
organic carbon budget over the 2013–2020 period. Comparisons of model outputs with satellite data and compiled in situ data from cruises and
Biogeochemical-Argo floats revealed the ability of the model to reconstruct the main seasonal and spatial biogeochemical dynamics of the Levantine
Basin. The model results indicated that during the winter mixing period, phytoplankton first progressively grow sustained by nutrient supply. Then,
short episodes of convection driven by heat loss and wind events, favoring nutrient injections, organic carbon export, and inducing light limitation
on primary production, alternate with short episodes of phytoplankton growth. The estimate of the annual organic carbon budget indicated that the
Rhodes Gyre is an autotrophic area, with a positive net community production in the upper layer (0–150 m) amounting to
31.2 ± 6.9 gCm-2yr-1. Net community production in the upper layer is almost balanced over the 7-year period by
physical transfers, (1) via downward export (16.8 ± 6.2 gCm-2yr-1) and (2) through lateral transport towards the
surrounding regions (14.1 ± 2.1 gCm-2yr-1). The intermediate layer (150–400 m) also appears to be a source of
organic carbon for the surrounding Levantine Sea (7.5 ± 2.8 gCm-2yr-1) mostly through the subduction of Levantine
Intermediate Water following winter mixing. The Rhodes Gyre shows high interannual variability with enhanced primary production, net community
production, and exports during years marked by intense heat losses and deep mixed layers. However, annual primary production appears to be only
partially driven by winter vertical mixing. Based on our results, we can speculate that future increase of temperature and stratification could
strongly impact the carbon fluxes in this region.

Published: August 2023

Waste has become a significant problem that requires significant management. Automatic waste separator machine technology has been developed by many countries to help with waste management efficiency. The working principle of the automatic waste separator is to separate the types of organic and non-organic waste. In making the machine frame, this must be taken into account carefully. Here the Autodesk Inventor 2021 application is used to analyze the strength of the frame of an automatic garbage separator. In the frame strength analysis simulation, the type of material used is ASTM A36 Steel with a U-shaped iron plate profile with a thickness of 6 mm. The total load on the frame is 284.5 kg. The static simulation results show that the maximum von misses stress is 138.285 MPa with a maximum displacement of 16.28 mm. while the value of safety factor is 1.4 ul. Based on the results of the simulation analysis, the value of the safety factor is included in the value range (1.25 -2.0) and the value of von misses ≤ 200 MPa (Modulus of elasticity) for ASTM A36 material, which means that the frame design for the waste separator machine meets good safety standards.

Lorenzo Natali and the first “tangible” steps towards the EEC Iberian Enlargement
Authors: Cavallaro Maria Elena
Published: August 2023

This article claims that the EEC turned the challenge of Iberian enlargement into an opportunity to relaunch the European project. The text focuses on illuminating the under researched role of the European Commission during the presidency of the British Roy Jenkins (1977-1981). The common thread of the story is made up of the analysis of the work carried out by the commissioner for the Enlargement, the Italian Lorenzo Natali. Far from understanding the accession of Spain and Portugal as a problem for the economic cohesion of the EEC, as some member states raised at the time, Natali saw in it a stimulus to overcome the break following the first enlargement. The text shows how, following Natali’s strategy, the Commission linked the progress of the Iberian agenda to the resolution of the great challenges of the community agenda: the establishment of a European monetary system, the completion of the Single Market, the reinforcement of the international role of the EEC and above all a political and institutional reform able to guarantee the Community to work with twelve member-states.
Con la Cruz (de los Caídos) a cuestas. Los destacamentos penales de Cuelgamuros (1943-1950)
Authors: Ruiz Casero Luis A.
Published: August 2023

La desmesurada escala del monumento franquista del Valle de los Caídos ha ocultado la historia de los destacamentos penales que se asentaron en el valle de Cuelgamuros para erigirlo. Este artículo rescata la historia de esos tres destacamentos -San Román, Banús, Molán- que a lo largo de siete años nutrieron a las obras de trabajadores penados, en su mayoría presos políticos y prisioneros de guerra, a la luz de nueva documentación y una metodología de foco amplio.
La configuración de la clase trabajadora navarra durante el tardofranquismo. Una visión desde el materialismo histórico
Authors: González de Andrés Enrique
Published: August 2023

A lo largo del franquismo, observamos una transformación tan significativa de la clase trabajadora navarra que justifica su estudio detallado. Se produce una extraordinaria evolución desde su escasa presencia pública en los cuarenta hasta su notoria irrupción en los setenta, siendo un elemento determinante en el devenir global de la región y coadyuvador de las mutaciones que se operaban en el conjunto del país. Las fuerzas económicas y materiales que se desarrollaron en aquel periodo histórico fueron palancas decisivas de su conformación como clase, en estrecha interrelación con factores cruciales como una presencia destacadísima del hecho religioso, sus raíces culturales ancestrales, sus específicas tradiciones organizativas, así como las dinámicas propias de las clases y grupos sociales de la zona, entre otros. Este alambicado y dialéctico entrelazamiento fue pergeñando un sugestivo escenario en el momento en que se estaba produciendo el tránsito de la dictadura franquista hacia un régimen democrático. Para una comprensión más cabal de este proceso, se emplearán herramientas analíticas procedentes del materialismo histórico.
La ciudad de los muchos Franciscos. De lógicas y genealogías de la violencia, entre los tribunales militares franquistas y los archivos de la democracia
Authors: Pérez-Olivares Alejandro
Published: August 2023

Una experiencia de investigación en un archivo judicial franquista es el origen de una cuestión concreta: ¿por qué el historiador del siglo XXI y el juez de 1939 llegan a hacerse las mismas preguntas? Aunque el debate sobre la violencia franquista ha experimentado una profunda renovación en las últimas décadas, apenas se ha interrogado por el origen de la documentación que las investigaciones utilizan como “fuente”. A partir de un estudio de caso, la ocupación de Madrid al final de la Guerra Civil, este artículo subraya la continuidad entre la producción de información por parte de la Auditoría de Guerra del Ejército de Ocupación, la máxima autoridad jurídico-militar tras la proclamación del “estado de guerra”, su conversión en documento con una finalidad represiva, los avatares de su gestión archivística y la propia interpretación historiográfica de la violencia franquista de ocupación. En este sentido, se pretende llamar la atención sobre las consecuencias epistemológicas y hermenéuticas de naturalizar el documento como “fuente” y el “archivo” como repositorio documental. Para llevar a cabo esta argumentación, en el texto se movilizan recursos analíticos procedentes de la historia sociocultural de la violencia y de la archivística histórica. Asimismo, se propone la noción de “práctica archivística punitiva” como una herramienta útil para renovar las interpretaciones de las lógicas de la violencia sublevada/franquista
Imperial, católica y moderna. La imagen de España en la Exposición Iberoamericana de Sevilla de 1929
Authors: Campos Pérez Lara
Published: August 2023

Este artículo analiza la imagen de la idea de España diseñada por el gobierno de Primo de Rivera con motivo de la Exposición Ibero Americana de Sevilla de 1929. Para ello se utiliza como fuente un amplio corpus, compuesto fundamentalmente por representaciones iconográficas (carteles, postales, fotografías, etc.), así como por descripciones de las grandes escenificaciones que tuvieron lugar en el recinto ferial y en zonas aledañas. El objetivo es mostrar la eficacia que tuvo este artefacto cultural de la política para traducir simbólicamente los principios estructurantes con los que la dictadura primorriverista construyó su particular interpretación del concepto de nación.
El pintor patriótico y la arquitectura monumental: la lectura en clave nacional de los paisajes de Genaro Pérez Villaamil (1833-1856)
Authors: Gilarranz-Ibáñez Ainhoa
Published: August 2023

Este artículo se aproxima a la difusión y circulación de los paisajes monumentales durante el reinado de Isabel II. En concreto se centra en el análisis de las composiciones del paisajista Genaro Pérez Villaamil y la valorización de su obra como “patriótica” por parte de la crítica artística del momento. El objetivo del artículo es indagar en los procesos de nacionalización desde la esfera cultural de mediados del siglo XIX poniendo el foco en los mediadores y en la recepción de estas piezas artísticas. Para ello, el estudio utiliza una metodología híbrida entre los estudios sobre la nacionalización en España y el análisis de la cultura visual decimonónica.
Cosmo-climatología amazónica: friaje, menstruación y conexiones femeninas murui
Authors: Belaunde Luisa Elvira , Nieto Moreno Juana Valentina
Published: August 2023

Partiendo de la narrativa de Teresa Faerito, sabia del pueblo indígena murui de la frontera peruano-colombiana, el artículo expone concepciones amazónicas climatológicas que revelan las fuerzas y peligros latentes en la coexistencia de formas de menstruación humanas y no humanas. Explora las conexiones entre la menstruación y los períodos del año llamados “friaje”, que suelen ocurrir en los meses de junio y julio en esa región amazónica. ¿Qué modo de corporificar-conocer es puesto en acción por medio del flujo de la sangre menstrual? ¿Cuáles son las percepciones femeninas de sus cuerpos extendidos a la alteridad de otros seres? La metodología de investigación sigue la interacción dialógica con Teresa Faerito para mostrar cómo la cosmo-climatología indígena femenina articula prácticas corporales y saberes, donde la extensión de la experiencia del cuerpo-persona al cuerpo-territorio, y viceversa, es una llave de comprensión de la maraña de seres que constituyen la menstruación de la tierra.
AS MARGENS VISTAS DE FORA: DOIS FENÓMENOS SINGULARES DA HISTÓRIA DA LITERATURA BRASILEIRA DOS SÉCULOS XX E XXI
Authors: Martínez Teixeiro Alva
Published: August 2023

O artigo pretende radiografar dois fenómenos de sinal contrário que marcam a compreensão das ‘margens’ da literatura brasileira contemporânea. Em primeiro lugar, refletiremos sobre a incomum importância que, gradativamente, adquiriu no Brasil a conquista de um ‘lugar de fala’ para representações e discursos não hegemónicos do ponto de vista social e cultural, tais como a literatura periférica ou a literatura migrante. Em segundo lugar e por oposição a essa admirável abertura, que deu uma notável especificidade à literatura brasileira, ponderaremos a permanência de uma certa inflexibilidade relativamente à entrada no cânone brasileiro de certos discursos híbridos e heterodoxos do ponto de vista literário e artístico – tais como as excelentes propostas de Flávio de Carvalho, Hélio Oiticica ou Nuno Ramos –, um fenómeno incompreensível, se tivermos presente a mencionada integração e canonização de outras heterodoxias e ‘margens’ literárias nas últimas décadas e, sobretudo, a centralidade da ‘tradição da antitradição’ na História da Literatura brasileira.
