Kontrola nad sklapanjem upravnih ugovora
Authors: Staničić Frane
Published: November 2018

Upravni ugovori u hrvatskom zakonodavstvu predstavljaju novinu uvedenu Zakonom o općem upravnom postupku 2010. godine, novinu koja se nije pokazala uspješnom u praksi. Kontrola nad sklapanjem upravnih ugovora neophodna je i vrlo značajna zbog nekoliko razloga. Prvo, javnopravna tijela koja ih sklapaju čine to izvršavajući svoje javne ovlasti, što nedvojbeno podliježe kontroli zakonitosti; drugo, u sklapanju upravnih ugovora raspolaže se javnim sredstvima što je također neophodno kontrolirati; treće, sklapanjem upravnih ugovora često se zadire u korištenje javnih dobara. Zbog restriktivnog tumačenja upravnih ugovora u hrvatskom zakonodavstvu ovaj je institut nesporno uređen samo u Općem poreznom zakonu. Međutim, u našem pravu već više od dva desetljeća postoje ugovori koji zadovoljavaju sve pretpostavke da bi se mogli smatrati upravnim ugovorima. Iz tog će se razloga u radu autor više pozabaviti kontrolom nad ugovorima koje smatra upravnim ugovorima – ugovorima o koncesijama i ugovorima o javnoj nabavi. Autor će pokazati kako je današnje uređenje kontrole sklapanja upravnih ugovora, prvenstveno ugovora o koncesiji i ugovora o javnoj nabavi, neadekvatno i predložit će zakonodavne promjene koje će rezultirati kvalitetnijim sustavom kontrole sklapanja upravnih ugovora. Autor će pokazati i da se kontrola sklapanja upravnih ugovora ne može promatrati odvojeno od kontrole izvršavanja upravnih ugovora.
Hrvatski pravni okvir sigurnosti i zaštite morskog okoliša pri odobalnom istraživanju i eksploataciji ugljikovodika
Authors: Amižić Jelovčić Petra , Kovačević Drago
Published: November 2018

Kako bi se smanjio uvoz energenata i popravila energetska slika Republike Hrvatske, naše su vlasti odlučile oživjeti odobalno istraživanje i eksploataciju ugljikovodika. Preduvjet za to bilo je stvaranje odgovarajućeg pravnog okvira, što se i postiglo donošenjem Zakona o sigurnosti pri odobalnom istraživanju i eksploataciji ugljikovodika u srpnju 2015. godine. Autorica u ovom radu razmatra odredbe navedenog zakona s posebnim osvrtom na zaštitu morskog okoliša. Slijedom toga, analizirane su i odredbe Plana intervencija kod iznenadnih onečišćenja mora u korelaciji s prethodno spomenutim Zakonom.
„Odustanak“ kod posebnih kaznenih djela ugrožavanja okoliša
Authors: Vukušić Ivan
Published: November 2018

Autor u radu analizira posebna kaznena djela ugrožavanja okoliša. S obzirom na specifičnost i problematiku koja se javlja kod propisivanja kažnjivosti ugrožavanja pravnog dobra, zakonodavac RH je predvidio mogućnost djelotvornog kajanja za neka kaznena djela protiv okoliša. Stoga se analiziraju oblici „odustanka“ koji prema važećem Kaznenom zakonu obuhvaćaju dobrovoljni odustanak i djelotvorno kajanje, a trebali bi obuhvaćati i „nekauzalno djelotvorno kajanje“.
Aspekti prava na pravično suđenje – pravo na pristup sudu kroz jurisprudenciju Ustavnog suda Republike Hrvatske
Authors: Šarin Duška
Published: November 2018

Ustavni sud Republike Hrvatske u svojoj praksi vezanoj uz zaštitu ljudskih prava i temeljnih sloboda, koja je u cijelosti usuglašena s praksom Europskog suda za ljudska prava, najviše se bavi povredom prava na pravično suđenje zajamčenog člankom 29. Ustava Republike Hrvatske. U radu se analizira dosadašnji razvitak jurisprudencije Ustavnog suda Republike Hrvatske kad je riječ o različitim aspektima prava na pravično suđenje s posebnim naglaskom na pravo na pristup sudu. Nakon određenja aspekata prava na pravično suđenje te „prava na sud“, analizira se pravo na pristup sudu odnosno njegovo ograničenje. Posebno se razmatraju postupovne pretpostavke za pristup sudu kao što su pravo podnošenja određene vrste zahtjeva sudu (dopuštenost podnošenja tužbe), pravo na pristup sudu kroz djelotvoran pravni lijek (jamstvo prava na žalbu i pravo na reviziju) te pravo na pristup sudu u određenim sudskim postupcima. Fokus je prvenstveno stavljen na odluke u kojima je Ustavni sud Republike Hrvatske utvrdio povrede navedenih prava zbog neprihvatljivih pravnih stajališta sudova.
O ustavnim i konvencijskim dvojbama uz Zakon o stečaju potrošača – predstavlja li višegodišnji plan otplate duga u Zakonu o stečaju potrošača povredu prava na suđenje u razumnom roku?
Authors: Grbić Sanja , Bodul Dejan
Published: November 2018

Precedentalni karakter prava Europske konvencije za zaštitu ljudskih prava i temeljnih sloboda (dalje: Europska konvencija ili EKLJP), koja se kroz praksu Europskog suda za ljudska prava (dalje: Europski sud ili ECHR) razvija kao „živi“ instrument, doveo je do toga da svaki od pojmova iz čl. 6 zahtijeva objašnjenje na stotine stranica. U navedenom kontekstu ECHR je u svojim presudama analizirao i tzv. „prešutna prava“ koja nisu izričito navedena u tekstu Konvencije već su stvorena kroz judikaturu za, exempli causa, stečajni (korporativni i potrošački) postupak. S druge strane, činjenica je da stečaj predstavlja izvansudski postupak, in extremis, u kojem je vrijeme jedan od najznačajnijih elemenata. Vrijeme umanjuje vrijednost imovine i što više vremena protekne u stečajnom postupku, vjerovnicima će okončanjem postupka biti u pravilu dostupna manja količina novčanih sredstva, dok su paralelno i dužnici – potrošači zakinuti jer imaju manje šanse za ekonomsko-socijalnu „rehabilitaciju“. U ovom radu bavimo se analizom dviju komplementarnih tema koje smo tijekom argumentacije povezali u jedinstvenu cjelinu. Naime, u navedenom kontekstu autori preispituju hoće li višegodišnje trajanje postupka potrošačkog stečaja (u nekim slučajevima i do 7 godina) definirano Zakonom o stečaju potrošača predstavljati povredu prava na suđenje u razumnom roku odnosno povredu prava na rješavanje građanskih prava i obveza dužnika i vjerovnika u razumnom roku iz čl. 6. EKLJP-a i čl. 29. Ustava RH. Kompleksnost predmeta istraživanja i postavljeni zadaci uvjetovali su izbor metoda pa je u istraživanju korišten metodološki pristup koji obuhvaća proučavanje domaće i strane literature, odgovarajućih zakonskih propisa kao i analizu sudske prakse. U radu se posebno analizira praksa Europskog suda za ljudska prava u postupcima uz čl. 6. (Pravo na pošteno suđenje) i Ustavnog suda RH uz čl. 29., st. 1. Ustava RH jer polazimo od pretpostavke da saznanja o ovome mogu biti ključna za razumijevanje problematike rada.
O pritužbama protiv policijskih službenika u Republici Srbiji
Authors: Nikač Željko , Juras Damir
Published: November 2018

U radu se, uz navođenje statističkih podataka i odgovarajućih (komparativnih) odredbi u hrvatskom zakonodavstvu, daju prikaz i opis zakonodavstva Republike Srbije kojim je regulirano podnošenje i ispitivanje pritužbi na rad policijskih službenika. Autori daju i prikaz odredbi kojima se regulira pravna odgovornost osoba koje na štetu policijskih službenika zloupotrebljavaju ustavno pravo na pritužbu. Zaključak autora je da je cjelovitom pravnom regulativom omogućeno djelotvorno ostvarenje prava na pritužbu zbog nezakonitog rada policijskih službenika, pri čemu je značajno da su u provjeru utemeljenosti pritužbi uključeni i predstavnici javnosti. Prijedlog autora je da se pravnom regulativom propiše obveza čelnika Ministarstva unutarnjih poslova da pokrene disciplinski postupak protiv policijskog službenika za kojeg nadležna komisija utvrdi da je u radu povrijedio zakon.
Ekonomski efekti glavnog grada
Authors: Filipić Petar
Published: November 2018

Koristeći teoriju i studij slučaja, u ovom se radu istražuju ekonomske koristi koje neki grad ima jer je glavni grad države i, sukladno tome, što bi taj grad izgubio ako bi se „glavno“ iz njega odselilo. Da nije riječ o znanstvenoj l'art pour l'art situaciji, govori činjenica da je u proteklih sto godina u više od dvjesto država širom svijeta izgrađen sasvim novi ili preseljen postojeći glavni grad. Uz pomoć serije multiplikatora, identificiraju se fiskalni i dohodovni efekti „glavnog“ u postojećem glavnom gradu, te utjecaji na zaposlenost i brojnost stanovnika glavnog grada. U studiji slučaja predložena se metodologija aplicira na Zagreb, glavni grad Hrvatske. U završnom dijelu rada razmatraju se scenariji preseljenja potencijalnog „glavnog“ na neku drugu lokaciju u prostoru države, bilo da je riječ (a) o nekoj prostornoj točki u kojoj nema stanovnika ni primjerene infrastrukture ili (b) nekom drugom postojećem gradu. Predložen je i treći scenarij koji dezintegrira „glavno” i pojedine njegove funkcije i institucije seli u veći broj različitih točaka u prostoru države. Nasuprot političkoj odluci, koja je u povijesti dominantno određivala lokaciju glavnog grada, u ovom se radu u prvi plan ističu ekonomski kriteriji koji bi u konačnici trebali voditi ravnomjernijem (policentričnom) razvoju države u cjelini.

Literature Contribution in Teaching of Indonesian Language as a Second Language for Preschool Children
Authors: Rabiah Sitti
Published: November 2018

Teaching Indonesian language as a second language after local language is a challenge in some areas in Indonesia. Requirement for parents to teach Indonesian language to their preschool children often face barriers due to the use of colloquial language still dominated by local language. Based on the above phenomenon, the authors conducted research to find solutions to the problems faced by the preschoolers to learn the Indonesian language. Using literature review, the authors pooled the results of the study, as well as works that have been published to confirm the statement that literature have contributed to the teaching of Indonesian as a second language for preschoolers. This study found that one of the causes of lack of understanding of Indonesian language to the preschool children because reading materials tend to be difficult to understand by children. In addition, the literature is less attracted attention and interest in reading, and less considering the nature of the child who is full of imagination and curiosity. From these findings reinforce the position of a literature in order to overcome the weakness in Indonesian language teaching materials. It is now the concern of literature can be implemented well and as expected in the process of teaching the preschoolers in order to achieve maximum results.
PENERAPAN IMPACT KONSELING DALAM KONSELING INDIVIDUAL DENGAN DIAWALI TERAPI EKSPRESIF UNTUK MENGUNGKAPKAN DAN MENGATASI MASALAH PRIBADI YANG DIALAMI KLIEN
Authors: Syahniar
Published: November 2018

Berbagai pendekatan dan teori dapat diterapkan untuk membantu klien mengatasi masalah pribadinya, salah satu pendekatan yang dapat diterapkan adalah impact konseling. Impact Therapy merupakan proses pengajaran yang dilakukan oleh konselor, di mana seorang konselor menuliskan dan menvisualkan kepada klien tentang apa yang diinginkan klien, yang akan dilakukan klien, bagaimana klien melakukan penilaian terhadap prilakunya serta bagaimana klien merencanakan apa yang akan dilakukannya ke depan. Hal ini digambarkan oleh Ed Jacobs (2011) Sebagai WDEP ( Want, Doing, Evaluate,and Plan). Sebelum menggunakan impact konseling bagi klien yang tidak mampu mengkomunikasikan permasalahan yang dialaminya terlebih dahulu dilaksanakan terapi ekspressif. Terapi ekspressif dikenal sebagai suatu terapi dalam konseling dan psikoterapi di mana klien dapat mengkomunkasikan dan mengekspressikan perasaan-perasaan dan pemikiran-pemikirannya melalui aktifitas yang berkaitan dengan seni, musik, tari-tarian, drama, puisi, serta permainan. Terapi ekspressif disebut juga dengan ”Terapi Seni Kreatif”. Khususnya seni, musik, drama dan puisi (National Coalition of Creative Arts Therapies assosiation (INCCTA 2004).
Penggolongan Tema Dalam Karya Fiksi
Authors: NURHAKIKI
Published: November 2018

Abstrak: Tema merupakan dasar gagasan, ide, pokok, pikiran yang dituangkan pengarang dalam karyanya, baik secara tersurat maupun secara tersirat. Suatu novel harus diawali dengan gagasan yang akan dikembangkan sebagai sebuah cerita yang utuh. Begitu pula dengan ide yang akan dituangkan dalam cerita: ide tentang keterbelakangan sosial, pendidikan yang tertinggal, religi, persoalan HAM. Tema berfungsi sebagai dasar pengembangan seluruh cerita. Oleh karena itu, tema terkait dengan seluruh bagian cerita. Secara prinsip, tema terdiri atas dua macam, yaitu tema utama merupakan makna tambahan yang menyokong dan mencerminkan makna pokok cerita. Tema merupakan suatu gagasan sentral, sesuatu yang hendak diperjuangkan dalam suatu tulisan atau karya fiksi. Tema adalah inti permasalahan yang hendak dikemukakan pengarang dalam karyanya. Oleh sebab itu, tema merupakan hasil konklusi dari berbagai peristiwa yang terkait dengan penokohan dan latar. Jadi dapat disimpulkan bahwa tema, yaitu suatu pokok atau inti persoalan yang mendasari suatu cerita. Untuk menemukan sebuah tema dalam sebuah karya fiksi, ia haruslah disimpulkan dari keseluruhan cerita, tidak hanya berdasarkan bagian-bagian tertentu dari cerita walau tema sulit ditemukan secara pasti, ia bukanlah makna yang “disembunyikan”, walau belum tentu juga dilukiskan secara eksplisit.

Nondual Awareness: Consciousness-as-such as non-representational reflexivity
Authors: Josipovic Zoran
Published: November 2018

I introduce arguments toward a non-representational reflexivity theory of consciousness-as-such to address one of the key issues in the science of consciousness today: lack of understanding of the nature of consciousness itself. An expanded map of consciousness is outlined, which includes, in addition to the well-known contents of awareness and levels of arousal, the indeterminate substrate and consciousness-as-such or nondual awareness. The central idea presented is that consciousness-as-such is a non-conceptual nondual awareness, whose essential property is non-representational reflexivity. This property makes consciousness-as-such phenomenologically, cognitively and neurobiologically a unique kind, different from and irreducible to any contents, functions and states, including the indeterminate substrate. Our previous hypothesis on the precuneus network for nondual awareness is further discussed in relation to non-representational reflexivity, and in the light of other hypotheses on the neural correlates of consciousness-as-such.
Preprint: Psychometric properties of startle and corrugator response in NPU, Affective Picture Viewing, and Resting State tasks
Authors: Kaye Jesse T , Bradford Daniel E. , Curtin John Joseph
Published: November 2018

The current study provides a comprehensive evaluation of critical psychometric properties of commonly used psychophysiology laboratory tasks/measures within the NIMH RDoC. Participants (N = 128) completed the No Shock, Predictable Shock, Unpredictable Shock (NPU) task, Affective Picture Viewing task, and Resting State task at two study visits separated by one week. We examined potentiation/modulation scores in NPU (predictable or unpredictable shock vs. no shock) and Affective Picture Viewing tasks (pleasant or unpleasant vs. neutral pictures) for startle and corrugator responses with two commonly used quantification methods. We quantified startle potentiation/modulation scores with raw and standardized responses. We quantified corrugator potentiation/modulation in the time and frequency domains. We quantified general startle reactivity in the Resting State Task as the mean raw startle response during the task. For these three tasks, two measures, and two quantification methods we evaluated effect size robustness and stability, internal consistency (i.e., split-half reliability), and one-week temporal stability. The psychometric properties of startle potentiation in the NPU task were good but concerns were noted for corrugator potentiation in this task. Some concerns also were noted for the psychometric properties of both startle and corrugator modulation in the Affective Picture Viewing task, in particular for pleasant picture modulation. Psychometric properties of general startle reactivity in the Resting State task were good. Some salient differences in the psychometric properties of the NPU and Affective Picture Viewing tasks were observed within and across quantification methods.
Preprint: Altered subjective reward valuation among drug-deprived heavy marijuana users: Aversion to uncertainty
Authors: Hefner Kathryn R. , Starr Mark J. , Curtin John Joseph
Published: November 2018

Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug in the United States and its use is rising. Nonetheless, scientific efforts to clarify the risk for addiction and other harm associated with marijuana use have been lacking. Maladaptive decision-making is a cardinal feature of addiction that is likely to emerge in heavy users. In particular, distorted subjective reward valuation related to homeostatic or allostatic processes has been implicated for many drugs of abuse. Selective changes in responses to uncertainty have been observed in response to intoxication and deprivation from various drugs of abuse. To assess for these potential neuroadaptive changes in reward valuation associated with marijuana deprivation, we examined the subjective value of uncertain and certain rewards among deprived and non-deprived heavy marijuana users in a behavioral economics decision-making task. Deprived users displayed reduced valuation of uncertain rewards, particularly when these rewards were more objectively valuable. This uncertainty aversion increased with increasing quantity of marijuana use. These results suggest comparable decision-making vulnerability from marijuana use as other drugs of abuse, and highlights targets for intervention.
Preprint: Heavy marijuana use but not deprivation is associated with increased stressor reactivity
Authors: Hefner Kathryn R. , Starr Mark J. , Curtin John Joseph
Published: November 2018

Although stressors appear to motivate marijuana use and marijuana use, in turn, is believed to induce stress system neuroadaptations, relatively little empirical work has explicitly tested for stress neuroadaptations associated with heavy marijuana use. We examined stressor reactivity to threat of unpredictable electric shock via startle potentiation among heavy marijuana users and a control group that reported minimal history of marijuana use. Heavy marijuana users were randomly assigned to 3 days of marijuana deprivation or no deprivation.This design allowed us to test contrasts for heavy (vs. minimal) use and deprivation (vs. no deprivation) on stressor reactivity. Heavy marijuana users (both deprived and non-deprived) displayed increased startle potentiation during threat of unpredictable electric shock relative to minimal use controls. In contrast, marijuana deprivation had no effect on startle potentiation. Startle potentiation was also increased among users who reported greater stress coping motives for their marijuana use and users with cannabis use disorder diagnoses. To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate increased reactivity to unpredictable stressors among heavy marijuana users. However, comparable increased unpredictable stressor reactivity among patients with alcohol and other substance use disorders has been previously documented. This effect of heavy marijuana use is consistent with predictions from rodent addiction models regarding stress neuroadaptations following heavy, chronic drug use, but could also represent an etiologically relevant pre-morbid risk characteristic. Finally, the clinical import of unpredictable stressor reactivity is reinforced by its relationships with stress coping motives and cannabis use disorder status.
Preprint: Anticipation of Smoking Sufficiently Dampens Stress Reactivity in Nicotine Deprived Smokers
Authors: Bradford Daniel E. , Curtin John Joseph , Piper Megan E.
Published: November 2018

Most smokers attempting to quit will relapse, even when using evidence-based cessation treatment. This illustrates the need for better understanding of the relapse process to thereby improve cessation treatments. While the impact of stress sensitivity on relapse is clear, little research has precisely examined stress reactivity in addicted individuals. Further, most research on relapse focuses on affect surrounding self-administration, and doesn’t address potentially important pre-consumption processes such as anticipation of use. We examined the effects of anticipation and actual smoking on stress reactivity in 34 deprived smokers withdrawn for 24 hours and 37 non-deprived smokers, with 37 non-smoker controls. Using a cued shock stressor task, we measured stress reactivity via startle potentiation and self-reported anxiety. After completing the task once, smokers anticipated smoking a cigarette resting in front of them while they completed the task a second time. Smokers then smoked before completing the task a third and final time. Non-smokers anticipated and drank water as a control. Anticipation of smoking significantly attenuated both startle potentiation and self-reported anxiety to shock cues for deprived smokers relative to non-deprived smokers. Smokers’ stress reactivity was not reduced by smoking beyond the prior effect of anticipation. These results suggest that anticipation, rather than actual drug consumption, may drive the primary reinforcing effect of reduced stress reactivity in smoking. Future research is needed to understand this effect of anticipation on drug use and determine whether anticipation would make an effective intervention target for addiction and other psychopathology which exhibits increased stress sensitivity.
Completing a Race IAT increases implicit racial bias
Authors: Hussey Ian , De Houwer Jan
Published: November 2018

The Implicit Association Test has been used in online studies to assess implicit racial attitudes in over seven million participants. Although typically used as an assessment measure, results from four pre-registered experiments (N = 940) demonstrated that completing a Race IAT exacerbates the negative implicit attitudes that it seeks to assess. Increases in White participants’ negative automatic racial evaluations of Black people were observed across two different implicit measures (SC-IAT and AMP) but did not generalize to another measure of automatic racial bias (Shooter Bias task). Results highlight an important caveat for the Race IAT, but also for many other forms of psychological assessment: that by measuring, we often perturb the system that we wish to understand.
Accuracy of Transcutaneous Bilirubinometry in Neonates Receiving Phototherapy
Authors: Dagli Pallavi Parag , Vasava Snehal
Published: November 2018

Introduction: Phototherapy remains mainstay of treating neonatal hyperbilirubinemia across gestational age spectrum. Neonates under phototherapy (PTx) require frequent estimation of serum bilirubin (TSB) to monitor disease progression. Transcutaneous bilirubinometer (TcB) is widely used for estimation of TSB with limited data for neonates receiving PTx. The aim of study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of TcB as compared to TSB in preterm and term infants receiving phototherapy.Methods: This prospective study analyzed 385 paired TcB-TSB samples from 234 hemodynamically stable preterm (89) and term (145) neonates receiving in-hospital PTx. Indigenous photo-opaque patch was applied to sternum before starting PTx. TcB was measured from patched area of skin using Dräger JM-103 device at 12 and 24 hours during phototherapy within 5 minutes of blood collection for TSB. Linear regression and Bland-Altman plots were used to compare TcB with TSB.Results: The mean (SD) gestational age and birth weight were 35.8 (2.43) weeks and 2250 (560) grams. Difference of mean of TcB and TSB was ranging between 0.7-1 mg/dl with TcB underestimating TSB. At 12 hours and 24 hours of PTx, the correlation coefficient were (r = 0.84 and 0.81, p<0.01) among preterm and (r = 0.76 and 0.79, p<0.01) among term infants. Bland–Altman plot showed significant agreement between TcB from patched site and TSB in both preterm and term neonates.Conclusion: TcB demonstrated significant accuracy in predicting TSB in both term and preterm neonates receiving PTx with slight underestimation of TSB. The study showed marginally higher correlation for preterm infants.

Introduction: Skinfold thickness is now considered to be an important indicator of body composition and nutritional status. Assessment of subcutaneous adiposity is becoming very important due to increasing trend of overweight and obesity. The objectives of the present study were to determine age-sex specific subcutaneous adiposity using skinfold thicknesses and its use in assessment of nutritional status among children of Eastern-India.Material and Methods: The investigation was carried out among 1262 children (619 boys; 643 girls) aged 5–12 years of Darjeeling district, West Bengal. Anthropometric measurements of skinfold thickness were recorded using standard procedures. Age-sex specific smooth percentile curves of skinfold thickness were derived using the L, M and S model.Results: Sexual dimorphism was observed in TSF, SSF, SISF, PBF, Σ2SKF and Σ4SKF measurements between sexes in children (p<0.05). Age-sex specific mean values of skinfold thicknesses of TSF, SSF, SISF and PBF of girls were observed to be significantly higher than boys (p<0.05). The age-sex specific mean values of BSF, TSF, SSF, SISF, Σ4SKF and PBF did not show any age-specific trend in children. Comparison with the NHANES-III data showed poor attainment of subcutaneous adiposity and nutritional status.Conclusion: Results of the present study showed the age-sex specific variations in subcutaneous adiposity pattern in children. The comparisons of skinfold thicknesses with references showed unsatisfactory nutritional status among children. These findings are important for future investigations in field, epidemiological and clinical settings.

Published: November 2018

Introduction: Breastfeeding success depends on both mother and child. There is high energy requirement to produce breast milk, which is wholesome food for under 6 months children and then complementary foods are introduced to child. Inadequate feeding practices affect nutritional status of children. The main aim of this study was to measure the dietary practices of lactating women and nutritional status of their children.Material and Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted among 343 lactating women and under two years children of Baglung district. Random sampling technique was applied to select the participants. Face to face interview was conducted among women to collect the data and anthropometric measurement was performed among the children. Data were entered in EPI-DATA version 3.2 and exported to Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS version 17.0) for further analysis.Results: Only 5.2% of mother had taken additional two meals per day and energy intake of 31.8% of women was met. Dietary practices of mothers were not associated with nutritional status of children. Breastfeeding practice was nearly universal (99.7%). Bulks (91.8%) of children were put into breast for breast feeding within first hour of birth. Exclusive breastfeeding rate was 34.5%. Bottle feeding was practiced by 15.6% of women. Less than half (40%) of 6-23 months children (n=174) had achieved satisfactory feeding practice (minimum meal frequency and minimum dietary diversity). The rate of wasting (n=180), stunting (n=180) and underweight (n=343) was 10%, 22.2% and 9.3% respectively. Feeding practice to children was associated with wasting and stunting.Conclusion: Dietary practice of women and feeding practice to their children was not satisfactory. Dietary practice of women was not associated with nutritional status of children but feeding practice was associated with their nutritional status. The rate of stunting, wasting and underweight was high.

Asymptomatic bacteriuria is occasionally found in healthy children. However, the fact that spina bifida occulta can be hidden in asymptomatic bacteriuria is not well known. We report an 8-year-old girl with asymptomatic bacteriuria. Spina bifida occulta was revealed by radiological examinations. Simple daily behavior, consisting of keeping the genitals clean, rehydrating regularly and not prolonging urination, was useful for removing asymptomatic bacteriuria in spina bifida occulta.

From Casablanca to Houston
Authors: Fette Julie
Published: November 2018

This article melds family history with History, tracing the lives of
my daughter’s grandparents, Marcelle Libraty and Pinhas Cohen. Products of
the social mobility and integration offered by the Alliance israélite universelle,
they became schoolteachers in Morocco and opted for France after
independence. Currently in their eighties, Marcelle and Pinhas’s lives are
connected to sweeping events in history: French colonialism, Vichy anti-
Semitism, Moroccan independence, Jewish emigration. Inspired by Ivan
Jablonka’s L’Histoire des grandparents que je n’ai pas eus, I experiment as both
narrator of the past and participant in the family story, and demonstrate
new ways of writing history. This auto-historiographical project shows how
a family succeeds in preserving identities of origin and maintaining relationships
despite socio-political upheaval and global mobility.

Der restaurierte Pragmatismus
Authors: Schmidt Ute
Published: November 2018

Ute Schmidt analysiert die wichtigsten Traditionslinien und Parteikonzepte, die 1945 bei der Bildung der interkonfessionellen, bürgerlichen Massen- und Integrationspartei CDU/CSU eine Rolle spielten. Innerparteiliche Kräfteverhältnisse, Argumentationsrichtung und Tonlage in den gegenwärtigen Fraktionskämpfen der Union - etwa um die Modernisierung der Partei oder über neue Wahlstrategien - sind oft nur vor diesem parteihistorischen Hintergrund verständlich. Heute stellt sich die CDU/CSU gegenüber ihren politischen Gegnern als eine auf der Basis eines kohärenten christlichen Menschen- und Weltbildes integrierte "Volkspartei der Mitte'' dar und nimmt auch die Tradition des christlich konservativen Widerstandes für sich in Anspruch. Charakteristisch für dieses Selbstbild ist jedoch, daß sämtliche Brüche, innerparteiliche Fronten und Ausgrenzungen ausgespart werden.
Von der Volksgemeinschaft zur Re-Vergemeinschaftung in der Krise des Fordismus
Authors: Spurk Jan
Published: November 2018

Die »Volksgemeinschaft« des Dritten Reiches hat sich in die Gründungsphase der BRD hinühergerettet und bildete die Grundlage für die Wiederaufbauphase. Der westdeutsche Fordismus untergrub und zerstörte die tradierten Formen von Gemeinschaft. Mit der Erosion der Säulen des sozialdemokratischen Wohlfahrtsstaates zeichnet sich jedoch eine »Re-Vergemeinschaftung« ab, der sich, wenn auch mit unterschiedlichen Intentionen, sowohl Teile der sozialen Bewegungen, als auch konservative Suhsidiaritätsapologeten und moderne Managementstrategen verschrieben haben. Diese heterogene Allianz unterminiert aufelärerische Kritik und trägt das neue Modernisierungsprojekt des Kapitalismus: Modernisierung des Kapitalismus durch »Re-Vergemeinschaftung«.
Die Normalisierung der Doppelmoral
Authors: Scheffler Thomas
Published: November 2018

Trotz ihres einzigartigen moralischen Pathos sind die deutsch-israelischen Beziehungen deutscherseits v.a. Amerika- bzw. Westpolitik, während Israel die Beziehungen primär aus wirtschaftlichen und militärischen Gründen pflegt. Sie sind Teil eines Dreiecksverhältnisses, in dem die Dynamik der deutsch-israelischen Beziehungen von der der deutsch-amerikanischen und der amerikanisch-israelischen mitbestimmt wird. In der deutschen Innenpolitikwaren sie stets Knotenpunkt gegenstrebiger moralischer Diskurse: Alibi für mangelnde Faschismusbewältigung; Protestinstanz, um diese einzuklagen. Die Linke schwankt zwischen schmfer Israelkritik und der Furcht, damit die neokonservative »Entkriminalisierung« der deutschen Geschichte zu begünstigen und droht sich damit moralisch zu paralysieren.
Der Staat, der Staat ist in Gefahr...
Authors: Werkentin Falco
Published: November 2018

Seit Gründung der Bundesrepublik gibt es eine große Koalition aus CDU/CSU, FDP und SPD, die aus Angst vor inneren Unruhen die staatlichen Repressions- und Machtapparate beständig ausbaut. Gewandelt haben sich die Bezugspunkte des »inneren Rüstungswahns«: Die neue Republik war in den ersten Jahren aus Sicht der Experten der »inneren Sicherheit« aller im Bundestag vertretenen Parteien insbesondere durch potentielle Arbeiterrevolten bedroht. Dieses klare Feindbild zerfiel mit der nahezu konfliktlosen Integration der Arbeiterklasse in die bundesrepublikanische Gesellschaft. An die Stelle der »revolutionären Arbeiter« tritt die eher diffuse Bewegung der Neuen Linken. Doch trotz neuester Informationstechnologien ist es der Polizei bisher nicht gelungen, die neuen sozialen Bewegungen oder Gruppen ohne feste Ideologien und organisatorische Strukturen zu begreifen. Dennoch ist die Macht der Polizei seit der durch die sozialliberale Koalition eingeleiteten Modernisierung der Sicherheitsapparate gewachsen. Eine »Wende«findet 1982 auf der Ebene der »inneren Sicherheitswahrung« nicht statt.
Gewerkschaften und intellektuelle Linke in 40 Jahren Bundesrepublik
Authors: Zeuner Bodo
Published: November 2018

Bodo Zeuner konstatiert eine neue Qualität im Verhältnis von Gewerkschaften und linken Intellektuellen und die Chance zur verstärkten Zusammenarbeit. Nach dem Scheitern des gemeinsamen Protestes von Gewerkschaften und der Studentenbewegung gegen die Notstandsgesetze im Mai 1968 war das fragile Bündnis gescheitert. Während die Gewerkschaften zum bundesrepublikanischen Alltag zurückkehrten, sahen Teile der Studentenschaft die BRD auf dem direkten Weg zurück zum Faschismus. Die Hoffnung auf die im Prinzip revolutionäre Potenz der Arbeiterklasse war Grundlage sowohl der »seminaristischen« Hinwendung der Studenten zu »den Arbeitern«, als auch der aus der APO entstehenden K-Gruppen. Seitdem haben Gewerkschaften und Intellektuelle hinzugelernt: Gewerkschaften, daß die Krisendiagnosen der marxistischen Intellektuellen so falsch nicht waren, die Intellektuellen, daß nur Einmischung ohne Besserwisserei und Stellvertretertum politische Kooperation ermöglicht.
Der »Social Structure of Accumulation«-Ansatz
Authors: Scherrer Christoph
Published: November 2018

Es wird der Versuch einiger sog. »radikaler« politischer Ökonomen in den USA vorgestellt, »Lange Wellen« der Kapitalakkumulation konflikttheoretisch zu interpretieren. Aus den Annahmen, daß sich die Profitabilität des Kapitals in der Auseinandersetzung zwischen Arbeit, Staat und Ausland entscheidet, und die Investitionsneigung des Kapitals von sicheren Erwartungen abhängt, wird die Notwendigkeit von institutionellen Kompromissen, den sozialen Strukturen der Akkumulation, abgeleitet. Deren Dauerhaftigkeit bestimme die Länge eines Aufschwungs. Dieser Erklärungsansatz ist jedoch wenig überzeugend, da das Verhältnis von Strukturen und Kräfteverhältnissen ebenso ungeklärt bleibt wie die Kausalbeziehungen, die der regressionsanalytischen Operationalisierung der zentralen qualitativen Einflüsse auf die Profitrate zugrunde liegen.
Die Präsidentschaftswahl 1988: Eine analytische Skizze
Authors: Markovits Andrei S.
Published: November 2018

Markovits analysiert die strukturellen Ursachen der Niederlage der Demokratischen Partei bei den Präsidentschaftswahlen vom November 1988, die zu erwartenden Konturen der »Bushjahre« und die gesellschaftlichen Kräfteverhältnisse in den USA am Ende der 80er Jahre. Ein eindeutiger Rechtsruck ist trotz oder infolge der Reagan-Herrschaft nicht auszumachen. Der Autor macht eine potentiell mehrheitsfähige Mitte-Links-Koalition aus, wenn es den Demokraten gelänge, offensiv für soziale und ökonomische Gerechtigkeit zu mobilisieren.
