Published: June 2024

This study examines the game skills of children aged 5-6 years participating in movement education programs. Given the crucial role of physical and cognitive skill development in early childhood, the study aims to explore how structured physical activities influence children’s motor skills, cognitive abilities, and social interactions. A descriptive survey model was employed involving 144 parents of children participating in movement education. The Game Skills Scale (GSS) was utilized to measure children’s game skills, and data were analyzed using SPSS 25, with t-tests for pairwise comparisons and Pearson’s correlation coefficient applied to determine relationships between variables, with a significance level set at p < 0.05. The results indicate that the game skills of children participating in movement education are notably high, with no significant differences based on gender or age. Furthermore, the duration of participation in movement education did not significantly impact the children’s game skills. These findings underscore the importance of incorporating structured physical activity programs in early childhood education to promote comprehensive development. The study contributes to the existing literature by highlighting the multifaceted benefits of movement education and providing insights for optimizing early childhood physical activity interventions.

A Linguistic Inquiry into the Social Media Era Based on the Context of Online Language Variation and Development
Authors: Zhao Yilu
Published: June 2024

Against the background of the rapid development of information technology, the Internet and social media have become the main platforms for people's daily communication, which has led to significant language variation. Taking online language variation as an entry point, this paper explores its unique forms and features in the age of social media, including lexical innovations, changes in grammatical structures and the evolution of pragmatic features. By analysing the sociological background of online language variation, the paper reveals the far-reaching impact of technological development, generational differences and regional culture on language change. The study shows that the cross-cultural transmission of Internet language not only enriches the means of expression of modern Chinese, but also promotes the communication and integration of different cultures. This paper further explores the future development trend of Internet language and its impact on language standardisation, education and cultural communication. Through a systematic study of Internet languages, this paper aims to provide new perspectives and methods for understanding the evolutionary patterns of modern Chinese and linguistic research in the social media era, as well as providing useful references for language education and cultural communication practices.

Published: June 2024

This paper takes Cubism in Western modernist art as the research object, focusing on the analysis of its visual elements deconstruction and reconstruction of expression techniques. The research background is based on Cubism as an important school of modern art, its challenge and breakthrough to the traditional art concept laid the foundation for the development of modern art. At present, there is still a large space for discussion on the analysis of cubism visual elements and its enlightenment in the field of modern design. Through the analysis of the processing techniques and visual elements in Cubism works, we can see that the visual expressiveness in Cubism still has an important role in the contemporary art design creation.

Effective Strategies for Interdisciplinary Integration in STEAM Curriculum Design
Authors: Li Jiameng
Published: June 2024

This article explores effective strategies for interdisciplinary integration in STEAM curriculum design, analyses its importance in developing students' creativity and problem-solving skills, and proposes specific coping strategies in the face of implementation challenges. STEAM education emphasises the integration of science, technology, engineering, art, and maths, aiming to provide a richer, more hands-on learning experience through the synthesis of these disciplines. The article first discusses the theoretical underpinnings of STEAM education, including constructivist learning theory, multiple intelligence theory, and creativity theory, which underpin the effectiveness of the interdisciplinary education model. Subsequently, the article details key pedagogical models of interdisciplinary integration, such as project-based learning, thematic teaching and case studies, which are effective in linking different disciplines and facilitating deeper student learning and understanding. In addition, the article discusses the major challenges encountered in designing and implementing interdisciplinary STEAM programmes, such as teacher professional development, innovations in student assessment, resource allocation and policy support, and proposes specific strategies to address these challenges. Finally, the paper summarises best practices in interdisciplinary STEAM education and makes recommendations for future educational policies and school practices. By strengthening teachers' interdisciplinary professional development, innovating assessment methods, optimising resource allocation and obtaining policy support, the implementation of STEAM education can be effectively promoted to provide students with a holistic and innovative learning environment. This mode of education can not only enhance students' mastery of subject knowledge, but more importantly, develop their ability to face future challenges.

Published: June 2024

Amaç: Objektif Yapılandırılmış Klinik Sınav (OSCE) klinik beceri eğitimlerinin değerlendirilmesinde objektif, geçerli ve güvenilir bir değerlendirme aracı olmakla birlikte öğrenciler üzerinde oluşturduğu sınav kaygısı en önemli dezavantajıdır. Ancak OSCE ile geleneksel sınav arasında sınav kaygısını değerlendiren çalışmalar nadirdir. Bu çalışma ile hemşire öğrencilerin OSCE ve geleneksel sınav tipindeki sınav kaygısı düzeylerinin karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntemler: Bu çalışma karşılaştırmalı tanımlayıcı tipte 26 Nisan – 06 Haziran 2022 tarihleri arasında yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini bir vakıf üniversitesinin birinci sınıfında Hemşirelik Esasları dersini alan 47 gönüllü öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Veriler “Tanımlayıcı Veri Formu”, “Sınav Kaygı Ölçeği (SKÖ)” ve “Durumluk Sınav Kaygı Ölçeği (DuSKÖ)” ile elde edilmiştir.
Bulgular: Öğrencilerin yaş ortalaması 20.13±2.44 yıl olup; çoğunluğu (%87.2) kadındır. Öğrencilerin %95.7’sinin daha önce OSCE deneyiminin olmadığı; %48.9’unun OSCE konusunda bilgisinin bulunmadığı saptanmıştır. SKÖ genel puan ortalamaları 98.19±25.57, DuSKÖ genel puan ortalamaları 44.77±12.86’dır. Öğrencilerin, OSCE ve geleneksel sınav durumsal kaygı düzeylerinin orta düzeyde olduğu saptanmıştır. OSCE konusunda bilgisi olmadığını ifade eden öğrencilerin DuSKÖ toplam puanları istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde düşüktür (p=0.03). OSCE ve geleneksel sınav durumluk kaygı puanları arasında yüksek düzeyde pozitif yönde korelasyon bulunmuştur.
Sonuç: OSCE sınav kaygısı geleneksel sınav kaygısından daha yüksek değildir. OSCE, hemşirelik eğitiminde geleneksel sınavlara alternatif olarak kullanılabilir.

Published: June 2024

Objective: The aim is to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge about organ donation and the attitudes towards organ donation among students of health sciences faculty.
Methods: This study is descriptive and cross-sectional in nature. The sample consisted of 436 students enrolled in health sciences faculty. Data collection included a form to collect students' personal information, the Organ and Tissue Donation and Transplantation Knowledge Scale, and the Attitudes Toward Organ Donation Scale, administered through face-to-face interviews. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 26 statistical software.
Results: The mean total score of students on the Organ Donation Knowledge Scale was determined to be 12.21±4.31 (above average), while the mean total score on the Organ Donation Attitude Scale was 53.39±12.18 (average). It was found that among those who received education on organ transplantation, those who allowed a family member to donate organs, those whose religious beliefs did not hinder organ donation, those willing to donate organs to someone with different beliefs, those who would accept organ transplantation if needed, those willing to fill out a document stating they have donated organs, and those who believed that explanations and guidance from religious leaders would increase organ donation, had higher scores on both the organ donation knowledge scale and the attitude scale (p<0.05). A weak positive correlation was found between students' organ donation knowledge levels and their attitudes (r=0.193; p=0.001).
Conclusion: As a result of the study, a positive relationship between organ donation knowledge level and attitude was found, indicating that education positively influenced both parameters. In order to increase the community's knowledge level and positive attitudes towards organ donation, it is necessary to first enhance the knowledge and attitudes of healthcare professionals and, prior to that, health sciences students. Informing students about organ transplantation and donation, creating awareness, whether through the use of social media or integration into the education curriculum, will contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals of promoting healthy and quality living in society.

The rise in global waste generation significantly hinders the effective implementation of waste management practices. CTU – Campuses have contributed to local waste generation throughout the years. To further address this arising problem, this paper assesses the solid waste practices of CTU Campuses of Danao, Carmen, and Tuburan. The study estimated how much solid waste is generated and identified which waste management strategies work best. The methodology used in this study was carried out on the 3 CTU Campuses; the use of a school waste assessment form that evaluated the current waste management practices in terms of waste generation, segregation, collection, and disposal processes across the campus facilities. Results showed that CTU-Tuburan has more proper solid waste practices regarding composting pits. However, CTU-Tuburan has the biggest estimated volume of waste generated monthly, impacting individuals' contributions to waste generation. CTU- Carmen gives enough availability of 3 sets of garbage containers and a plastic bottle recycling collection bin in some places. CTU-Danao and Carmen have enough recycling activities and have less contribution to the estimated volume of waste generated. The three campuses have a sufficient garbage collection schedule; however, they lack comprehensive waste reduction efforts and are not consistently followed by certain individuals on the campuses.

Multicultural Approach to Induction of Depressive Mood by Music
Authors:   , Cholakian Lara Adam
Published: June 2024

The present research studied the differential effect that ethnic music has on the induction of depressive mood amongst members of two ethnic communities. The following hypotheses were tested (1) Induction of depressive mood using Armenian music will be more effective to Armenians than Arab subjects. (2) Depressive mood will be more pronounced in older people of the two ethnic groups than the young. (3) It was expected that young Armenians would show significant mood change by listening to Arabic music than young Arabs to Armenian music. 72 healthy subjects young and old volunteered to participate in the experiment from both Armenian and Arab ethnic groups. Depressive mood was induced by making subjects listen to sad Armenian and Arabic music. Change in mood was measured by the administration of MAACL-R test before and after the induction procedure, also by judging 12 faces with respect to six emotions presented during the experiment on the computer screen. Results indicate that the influence of music on individuals is not a simple one; age, ethnic background and familiarity with ethnic music play a role in the induction of depressive mood. Contrary to hypothesis one and two the response of both Armenian old and young to Arabic or Armenian music was almost identical. Contrary to the hypothesis three an interesting and unexpected outcome of this research was the intense depressive mood induced on young Arabs who listened to Armenian music. Both of these results were explained in terms of assimilation of Armenians into Lebanese Arab society and the familiarity of Armenian and Lebanese groups with each other's ethnic music.

Published: June 2024

The National Research Mentoring Network’s (NRMN) goal is to increase diversity and provide mentoring, networking, and professional development resources to underrepresented populations in STEMM. The virtual, scalable MyNRMN platform includes 15,136 mentees, 7,998 mentors, 3,937 institutions, and 11,832 connections. Our goal was to understand mentee growth and “transitions” alongside engagement with mentoring and networking resources in MyNRMN. In this study, we define transition as the act of a person making a change to their MyNRMN profile that includes one of the following profile fields: institution, education level, degree, or career. We hypothesized that diverse networks and engagement in MyNRMN would be significantly associated with positive transitions. We assessed 7,209 user profiles that indicated an education/career change during the study period. Connections between racially homogenous users were associated with decreased positive transitions (b=-0.107, p<0.05). Connections with heterogeneous ethnicities were associated with increased positive transitions (b=0.105, p<0.05). Longevity within MyNRMN platform was associated with increased positive transitions (b=0.424, p<0.05).

Published: June 2024

Peer group mentoring facilitated by senior faculty represents an effective approach. However, for underrepresented biomedical researchers, access to senior faculty from underrepresented racial/ethnic groups is limited. We explored motivations, benefits, and challenges for facilitators enrolled to deploy an intervention in the context of a randomized controlled trial that tested two peer group mentoring strategies for underrepresented early career researchers. Peer group sessions were co-facilitated by two senior underrepresented faculty. Thirty-six faculty were recruited as facilitators over four years. The facilitators’ primary motivation was advancing the diversity of the workforce, the primary benefit was satisfaction from helping underrepresented researchers, and the primary challenge was time. Understanding motivations, benefits, and challenges of facilitators informs efforts in recruiting and retaining facilitators and disseminating this curriculum and others like it, to the broader community.
Developing a Career-Focused, Diverse Mentoring Program for Underrepresented STEM Undergraduates
Authors: Wayman Annica , Stolle-McAllister Kathleen , LaCourse William
Published: June 2024

The racial and gender composition of the STEM workforce and holders of advanced degrees still has low representation from those traditionally underrepresented groups (URGs) in STEM. Having little representation of URGs in the STEM workforce, especially among academic faculty, perpetuates the issue of STEM students having few, if any, diverse STEM faculty to engage which has been shown to hinder retention in STEM. While involving STEM students from URGs in research mentoring experiences with non-minority faculty mentors addresses this issue to some extent, it also may limit a student’s exposure to STEM careers beyond academic research which may help retain them. Thus, the UMBC STEM BUILD program developed and implemented a career-focused mentoring program that included a broad array of STEM professions from URGs to support career development of 2nd year STEM students.
Intelligent Sensibility: Human-Machine Symbiotic Agencies
Authors: Hedayati Mona
Published: June 2024

SHORT PAPER. This paper is an effort to examine the codes of interaction between the carbon-based and the silicon-based, i.e., the human and the machine, notably the shifting agencies addressed by adopting feminist technoscientific and new materialist lenses to grapple with the techno-industrial paradigm shift that has been (dis)figuring the anthropocentric condition. The first part of the paper lays down the qualities of this emerging ecology while recognizing the importance of human accountability and situatedness. The focal point of this survey is the anthropologist Lucy Suchman’s classic Human-Machine Reconfigurations which is elaborated upon through anchor points she posits revisiting Donna Haraway and Karan Barad’s arguments. The last part engages with the implications of such a coupling for human and machine sensoria in order to envisage the qualities of a distributive sensorium that this regenerative agency can put forth while alluding to practices of situated computing.

The work tells the story of a mind-uploaded human being reborn as a new subject while interacting with an AI that is looking for the meaning of life. In order to experiment with the expandability of VR comics, the work was produced by focusing on three problems. First, the comic is designed using the viewing control effect of VR. Second, through VR controller-based interaction, the player's immersion in the work is increased. Third, a method for increasing accessibility to VR comics was devised. This work aims to present an example of an experimental attempt in VR Comics.
Inhabiting the Edges
Authors: Boutilier Célia
Published: June 2024

SHORT PAPER. My doctoral project in art-creation-research, which began in October 2021, is entitled "Imaginal photography: for an aesthetic of symbiosis." In my practice as a photographic artist, making symbiotic relationships, unexpected alliances, allows me to provoke a "suspension of evidence" which, through the intermediary of the image, invites the viewer to share the experience of a different look. From this point on, the very nature of perception is to admit ambiguity. The interdependencies in ecosystems, the principle of hybridization between different species are themes addressed by the team of the laboratory of plant symbioses of the French National Museum of Natural History of Paris with which I collaborate. In my research, I'm specifically interested in the symbioses present in the orchid with the biologists Florent Martos and Eve Hellequin. Transcending the notion of organism allows us to reconcile human beings with their natural dimension of interdependence and interaction. The researchers in this laboratory are the extractors and curators of natural plant resources, with which they shape new worlds such as the Grande Serre: a space in which I would like to exhibit works in 2023-2024. These hybrid spaces, co-dependent with humans, seem to me to be fertile places to dialogue with.
Post-Human Motherhoods: Reflections on mother-offspring bonding as symbiotic individuation in Contemporary Art
Authors: Lautenschlaeger Graziele
Published: June 2024

As part of an ongoing postdoctoral research on post-human motherhoods in media art, the paper examines selected artistic expressions of mother-offspring bonding and its relationships with different technological cultural basis. The introduction addresses the handling of the concept of the mother and its related operations in the research scope. Following this, we suggest as standing points for reflection both the material basis of the placenta and playfulness as elements shaping the mother-offspring bonding. They constitute fundamental aspects triggering affection in the potential symbiotic relationship established in mother-offspring bonding. The discussion is permeated by artwork examples, brought on demand to the text to feed the reflection. The notions of “natureculture” by Donna Haraway and the theoretical framework by Second-order Cybernetics are grounding references. The final considerations point towards the human and post-human aspects of motherhood revealed by the artworks, as well as to the need for concrete actions towards the reduction of the gender-based technological gap in media art, in order to increase the imaginary variability of the field.
At the Sources of an Artistic Mutation towards Science: the First Years of the Journal Leonardo (1968-1981) as a Forum for the Pioneers of Digital Art
Authors: Frémontier-Murphy Camille
Published: June 2024

SHORT PAPER. The journal Leonardo was founded in 1968 by Frank Malina, a pioneer of light art in Paris and of aerospace science in the United States. Leonardo encouraged artists to publish their work in the manner of scientists. It was a new initiative developed in the revolutionary context of the 1960s and that allowed artists, scientists, psychologists to exchange on the subjects of art, perceptions, science, society... Many pioneers of digital art took part in the adventure, including Vera Molnar, Zdenek Sykora, Charles Csuri, and the artist-novelist Herbert Franke, who became the advocate of the theories and the protagonists of digital art spread out over the four corners of the planet, just about everywhere a computer could be found. The growing group was defending a more conceptual approach to art, closer to the spectator, a new form of art rooted in Constructivism and that was in symbiosis with society’s mutation towards technology.

Published: June 2024

This paper is a case study of a performance co-created in interaction with an autonomous virtual system. Our outcomes point to an essential production period where the creative team learns to know the virtual system through indirect interactions: the match-up phase. During this step, co-creation and co-evolution moments happened, indicating a possible symbiotic relationship. We discuss the implications and the outcomes of working with autonomous scenography in a performative context. We then expand the reflection to the potential creative associations between performance arts and autonomous technology.

El cine es una diversión que hay que tomar muy en serio. Un fin que puede, incluso, ser tomado como medio. Los educadores así lo han comprendido desde hace años, y los profesores de Derecho no iban a ser menos. Al cine nada de lo humano le es ajeno, y por eso quienes se dedican a la docencia en el ámbito jurídico son conscientes de que, si se puede gozar con el cine —esa bella arte—, también se puede trabajar con él en el aula. Es necesario, claro está, estar dispuesto a ello, poseer una cultura cinematográfica apropiada y diseñar adecuadamente esta estrategia pedagógica, como se hace con cualquier táctica formativa para que resulte eficaz. Es esencial seleccionar correctamente aquellas películas o escenas que puedan ser útiles en un determinado momento para trabajar en clase, teniendo claro qué se pretende del alumnado con dicho trabajo, además de ilustrar el tratamiento de la cuestión académica que sea.

Published: June 2024

Cananga odorata, commonly known as ylang-ylang, is an evergreen perennial tropical tree belonging to the Annonaceae family, which is traditionally and scientifically reported to have various pharmacological activities. This indigenous medicine study was carried out to document the traditional usage of C. odorata for medicinal reasons by Indonesian ethnic groups. This is one of numerous initiatives aimed at preserving indigenous knowledge and medical practices maintained by the community. Data were acquired during 2015 and 2017 through in-depth interviews with selected traditional healers from each ethnic group throughout 34 Indonesian provinces, who were chosen using a purposive sampling approach based on inclusion criteria. The information gathered includes the demographic data of healers, medicinal plants used, potions, and their applications for health purposes. Following the completion of the interview with the informant, specimens of medicinal plants were collected. Data quantification was accomplished by examining the value of plant parts and doing a simple ranking analysis for multihealth purposes. This study revealed 42 traditional applications of C. odorata by 36 traditional healers from 28 ethnic groups in 16 provinces to overcome 18 diseases. Cananga odorata was primarily obtained from the woodland instead of the house garden and other environments. Skin disease was identified as the most prevalent indication of C. odorata, in agreement with the most commonly employed administration method, the external route. Leaves became the foremost prominent plant part utilized by healers. This study emphasized the significant role of traditional healers in healing various illnesses with C. odorata and the variations in C. odorata ethnomedical usage as a traditional remedy in Indonesia. Nonetheless, cultivating initiatives should be started as more than 60% of identified C. odorata has yet to be grown. The study’s findings are likely to benefit various stakeholders, serve as baseline data for further studies on the efficacy and safety of C. odorata, and contribute to efforts for developing health products that employ C. odorata.
Movimenti sociali, politica ed eterocronia in una città siciliana
Authors: Palumbo Berardino
Published: June 2024

In questo scritto, attraverso l’analisi di un caso siciliano intendo, da un lato, riflettere intorno ai rapporti tra crisi economico-politica e possibilità di costruzione di pratiche e immaginari politici innovativi; dall’altro vorrei provare ad indagare le complesse contraddizioni che, operando all’interno di una scena politica locale, nazionale e globale disarticolata e conflittuale, hanno interessato un movimento sociale divenuto all’improvviso governo di una città. Avendo presenti alcune recenti analisi della dimensione temporale propria dei movimenti sociali e della conflittualità politica nei sistemi del tardo-capitalismo, vorrei inoltre mostrare l’operare, nella scena politica contemporanea di una città meridionale, di molteplici e asincroni ritmi temporali che la crisi economico istituzionale degli ultimi anni ha reso evidenti, consentendo l’elezione a sindaco di un totale outsider. Più in particolare mi soffermerò sulla tensione tra un tempo che definisco messianico e altre due temporalità, quella “burocratica” e quella “strutturale” che appaiono consustanziali ad una diversa “economia”, legata all’operare della macchina amministrativa.
Neoliberalisation and the “Death of the Public University”
Authors: Shore Cris , Wright Susan
Published: June 2024

The advance of neoliberalism is often linked to what many authors describe as the “death of the public university”. Taking up this theme, we explore the idea of the “neoliberal university” as a model and its implications for academia. We argue that this model is having a transformative effect, not only the core values and distinctive purpose of the public university, but also on academic subjectivities of the professional ethos that has traditionally shaped academia.

Water futures, biosociality, and other-wise agency: An exploratory essay
Authors: Hawke Shé , Pálsson Gísli
Published: June 2024

This article maps the confluence of biosocial relations through the agential networks of water. In the language of the environmental humanities and social sciences, such relations and networks are biosocial and sacralised (Meloni, Williams, and Martin 2016; Mangiameli 2013). The self-organisation of aquatic environments in these relations towards humans is engaged in an ongoing process of entanglement and adaptation in parallel with human understandings and approaches to water. This article imagines new and conscientious behaviour that might treat the ubiquitous river more gently, against the tensions and provocations of the Anthropocene Epoch. It argues for the development of fresh sustainability logic; a hydro-logic that cultivates connectivity, adaptive capacity, and broader water values that exist beyond the containment of the commodification paradigm, (that are particularly evident among First Nations peoples). This logic necessarily includes a reconsideration of economic, ecological, customary and recreational values in more balanced measure. By configuring water as a complex adaptive stream of intra, inter and extra-relationships, this research champions waters’ multi-dimensional capacity and agency for the purpose of advancing more sustainable biosocial water futures within a geosocial matrix.
Antiziganisms: Ethnographic Engagements in Europe
Authors: Tosi Cambini Sabrina , Beluschi Fabeni Giuseppe
Published: June 2024

Parallel to the interest in Roma at the social and political level, Antiziganism has rapidly gained the interest of social sciences since 2000. A copious literature has contributed to decisive breakthroughs in defining the concept and identifying its roots in the history of Europe. However, the debate has mostly developed with “Antiziganism” in singular declension, with the frequent merging together of cases originating in different contexts. After a speedy evolution, theorization shows signs of entering conceptualization redundancy. This thematic section wishes to move beyond the currently prevailing top-down reflection on Antiziganism. It offers the results of public anthropology and interdisciplinary research-actions, carried on in local contexts, in spaces of interaction between the Roma and the non-Roma, and by ethnographers intervening to promote a change. Ethnography of  “Antiziganisms” and of the practices which counteract them offer opportunities for revealing the link between antiziganism and other forms of racism, the cognitive and emotional experience of the subjects at play in the specific field and the fuzziness of the dividing lines between their agency. It is finally a chance to experiment with the applicability, adaptability and transferability of disciplinary knowledge.
“Tocar puertas”: Potere indigeno, ONG e sviluppo nel Guatemala post-guerra
Authors: Freddi Andrea
Published: June 2024

Questo articolo si basa su un caso etnografico di “rafforzamento della governabilità” messo in atto da una ONG internazionale nel municipio indigeno di Todos Santos Cuchumatán, Guatemala. Attraverso l’intreccio tra le voci dei funzionari delle ONG e quelle della popolazione locale, cerco di mettere in luce le implicazioni di alcuni malintesi concernenti le forme egemoniche di percepire l’alterità maya, implicite nel multiculturalismo neoliberista, la nuova forma di governance adottata nel Guatemala post-guerra. L’articolo prende in considerazione una performance democratica che mette in luce una appropriazione rituale indigena del discorso dello sviluppo, risultante in un processo di acculturazione/resistenza. Ciò che emerge è una riflessione su come la leadership maya si ridefinisce come mediazione tra la ragione umanitaria della Cooperazione Internazionale, portatrice di risorse, e le logiche locali di potere e prestigio, dove risiede ancora la sua principale fonte di legittimazione.
Recursive in/formality: Time and ideology in a distributed monetary system
Authors: Muir Sarah
Published: June 2024

I argue that in/formality is not a distinction between two qualities, but rather, a distinction of relative position achieved through linguistic and nonlinguistic practices of categorization. Through an analysis of illegal currency trading in Argentina, I show how temporal and ideological dynamics shape the semiotic framing of in/formality in any given context.
Back on the verandah and off again: Malinowski in South Tyrol and his ethnographic legacy
Authors: Tauber Elisabeth , Zinn Dorothy
Published: June 2024

Questo saggio introduce la sezione tematica di Anuac da due prospettive. La prima parte guarda alla vita di Malinowski ed Elsie Masson in Sud Tirolo, contemplando il contesto storico-politico della regione e mettendo in luce la presenza e le relazioni della famiglia Malinowski nello scenario locale. La veranda della villa a Oberbozen è il punto di partenza per una visione panoramica su questo territorio e sulla sua gente, e funge da cornice per ripensare la figura di Malinowski. La seconda parte traccia lo sviluppo del Forum Malinowski per l’Etnografia e l’Antropologia (MFEA) alla Libera Università di Bozen-Bolzano, un progetto che dal 2016 ha portato alla luce nuove conoscenze sulla presenza dei Malinowski in Sud Tirolo. Il Forum Malinowski fa da sfondo al Simposio che ha ispirato gli articoli qui presentati allo scopo di riflettere sull’etnografia oggi nei termini delle sue continuità e discontinuità rispetto al canone stabilito da Malinowski quasi un secolo fa.
DIY Anthropology: Disciplinary knowledge in crisis
Authors: Estalella Adolfo , Criado Tomás Sánchez
Published: June 2024

This is an account of the transformations in our anthropological practice derived from working in the many interstitial spaces that opened up in the wake of the recent Spanish economic crisis. Ambulating in void spaces of Madrid and Barcelona, our anthropological practice was there re-built in ways that blurred our disciplinary boundaries. What there emerged was anthropology not as a disciplinary field, but as a field of experimental collaborations. A practice that re-learnt its ways treating counterparts as true epistemic partners, and setting up distinct ambiances of care with them: not only to care for one another in situations of great difficulty, but mostly to care for our different forms of inquiry, addressing the very situations we were under. An anthropology done together with others, assembling from scratch a conceptual body, caring for the mundane issues that are very often forgotten and rendered invisible by disciplinary fields: A DIY anthropology?
