A Pragmatic Analysis of English Euphemism and its Application to Literary Translation
Authors: Huabin Wang
Published: February 2025

English euphemism is popular as a way of conveying positive words, through which speakers can achieve the goal of communication instead of offending others. As regards its usage, emphasis is put upon the reflection of politeness in a speech environment. Euphemism can also be found in literature, which calls for a correct understanding of its distinctive formation and pragmatic functions. Without proficient knowledge of euphemism, readers cannot taste the deep feelings of speakers or narrators. In such a case, for a translator of literary works, it is important to compare pragmatic functions of euphemism examples between different versions. This paper discusses its application to literary translation from the perspectives of culture, grammar, lexis, context, and rhetorical effects with a case study of A Dream of Red Mansions. In conclusion, based on the results, suggestions are proposed for a better understanding of literary works in order to improve the quality of literary translation.

2nd Revision on 27 September 2024-wl-3375-Amendment in Section 12(1)(c) of the Right to Education Act: From intention to implementation
Authors: Manani Preeti , Goswami Richa
Published: February 2025

The article examines the most recent amendment of Section 12(1)(c) of the Right to Education Act, from the Maharashtra government whereby all the private schools that have a government school in the radius of one kilometre are not obligated to give admission under the 25% reservation for EWS/DG students. It makes the argument that structural flaws at the core, budgetary constraints, administrative issues, political decisions and their shortsightedness may have contributed to the 2009 inclusion of a clause reserving 25% of seats for EWS students and this recent amendment by Maharashtra Government in 2024. This commentary attempts to throw light on two aspects of policymaking and revision: Firstly, the difference in purported reason and the underlying reasons in policymaking. Secondly, hasty revisions often cut short the time required for long-term changes.

Authors: Falti Manullang  , Dian Surya Sampurna
Published: February 2025

Employee well-being has become an important indicator in measuring a company's success in managing human resources. This study aims to analyze the role of coping strategies in mediating the effect of work stress and work environment on employees' subjective well-being. This study uses a quantitative approach. The population in this study consists of all employees of XYZ Company, totaling 50 employees. This study uses data analysis methods using SmartPLS software version 3.2.7. PLS or Partial Least Square test is a structural equation modeling (SEM) approach based on variance. The results of this study found that work stress does not affect employees' subjective well-being. Work stress does not affect coping strategies. Work environment affects employees' subjective well-being. Work environment affects coping strategies. Coping strategies have a significant effect on employees' subjective well-being. Coping strategies mediate the effect of work stress on employees' subjective well-being insignificantly. Coping strategies mediate the effect of work environment on employees' subjective well-being insignificantly. Therefore, a supportive work environment, including positive relationships with colleagues and management, has been shown to increase employees' subjective well-being. Social support and resources provided by the work environment help employees choose more adaptive coping strategies. In addition, the use of adaptive coping strategies, both problem-focused and emotion-focused, contributes positively to employees' happiness and life satisfaction.

Published: February 2025

This research examines the effect of HRIS (Human Resource Information System) application implementation on employee productivity, and evaluates the challenges that may be faced in the implementation process. The method used is a literature review, in which various related studies and theories are critically analyzed to gain a deeper understanding of this topic. The results of the literature review show that the implementation of HRIS applications can have a positive impact on employee productivity by simplifying administrative processes, increasing data accessibility, and improving internal communication efficiency. However, a number of challenges were also identified, including a lack of technological skills and understanding of HRIS systems among employees, difficulties in integration with existing systems, and problems with maintenance and technical support. This research provides important insights for organizations planning to implement HRIS applications, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive training, strong management support, and a careful implementation strategy to overcome challenges that may arise during implementation. If companies and their employees are equally prepared, the use of HRIS applications will benefit work productivity

Between Autonomy and Control: Understanding Power Relations in Decentralisation
Authors: Zahid Aaqib
Published: February 2025

The intertwined concepts of Local Government and Decentralisation are pivotal in the discussion of good governance and sustainable development for their ability to localise public administration that facilitates local development. United Nations (2015) defines local government as the political subdivision of a state that is legally established and possesses significant authority over local matters, and Rondinelli, Nellis, & Cheema (1983) characterise decentralisation as the transfer of planning, local decision-making, and administrative power from central entities to field organisations, local administrative units, semi-autonomous or para-statal organisations, and potentially even nongovernmental organisations (NGOs). In other words, decentralisation is a process that redistributes power, decision-making authority, and resources from the central state to the local entities for the sake of a locally tailored governance conducive to local development. Moreover, decentralisation, through a localised form of governance, enhances citizen participation in local decision-making and helps bridge local disparities by establishing local ownership of the local issues and solving them through local knowledge to support local development.

However, decentralisation being a primary policy reform for more than half a century (Faguet & Pal, 2023), the transfer of power from central to local governments has not been smooth in both global north and south (See Note 1), which is evident through the growing amount of literature that deals with discrepancy of power between the central and local government (Duncan, 2007; Goldsmith, 2002; Kanju & Shayo, 2022; Martin, GuarnerosMeza, Downe & Entwhistle, 2010; McAteer & Bennett, 2005; Panday, 2017; Saunders, 1982; Wilson, 2003; Wunsch, 2001). However, being a widely discussed issue, the theoretical development on decentralisation, especially on central-local relationships, has been muted, and most of the literature focused on country experiences by identifying countryspecific problems and recommending solutions. Such country-specific literature is indeed essential for policymakers and development practitioners; however, such a centralised focus on applied research has slowed the theoretical advancement in local government literature, especially within the domain of decentralisation. For instance, being a central concept in decentralisation, the concept of power in a theoretical sense has largely been missing, even though power plays a pivotal role in the central-local relationship within the ontology of local government.
Sustainable Development Goals and Safe Water: Evidence from Coastal Zones of Bangladesh
Authors: Begum Marzina
Published: February 2025

Bangladesh experiences water insecurities caused by climate change, the associated impacts on local communities, and the limitations of the coping strategies. The impacts of climate change on the availability of potable water in local communities are substantial. Frequent climate hazards include cyclones, tidal surges, riverbank erosion, and saltwater intrusion (Begum & Momen, 2021). Yet, the health and well-being implications of water insecurity caused by climate change are complex. Water is an essential resource for human survival, as it is used for a variety of purposes. Highlighting the sources of water, GOB (2013) through Bangladesh Water Act 2013 Chapter 2, Section 14 notes that- the term "water resources" refers to all surface water, subterranean water, and precipitation, i.e. water in the atmosphere, as well as water from estuaries, aquifers, flood-plains, wetlands, water sources, foreshores, and other similar reservoirs or places. Jahan, Howlader, Sultana, Ishaq, Sikder and Rahman, (2015) note that the dilemma of safe drinking water, which affects more than 20 million people in Bangladesh, and population growth further complicates the situation. Moreover, the Government of Bangladesh (GoB) is most concerned about groundwater depletion, as water levels decline precipitously because of excessive extraction to meet the country's expanding requirements. Government efforts to encourage the usage of surface water by residents fall well short of their objective. The government has a plan to resolve water security. For the secure management of water, the GoB has created numerous legally binding instruments, including the National Water Policy, 1999, and the National Water Supply and Sanitation Act 2014 (Ministry of Local Government, Rural Development and Cooperatives Local Government Division, 2014).
Navigating the Future: Bangladesh’s Adaptive Strategies to Attenuate the Effects of Fourth Industrial Revolution
Authors: Makhdum Niaz
Published: February 2025

The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is a transformation marked by considerable advances in technology such as those of the earlier industrial revolutions. It has emerged as a compass, indicating new directions for advancement and innovation as one of the most challenging intersections people have ever imagined between technology and society in our history (Ivaldi et al., 2021). In light of the significant changes occurring worldwide and the emergence of new challenges driven by advanced technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), biotechnology, and the Internet of Things (IoT), governments are required to develop policies that effectively navigate this complex environment (Shava & Hofisi, 2017).

In this context, this chapter explores the intriguing aspect of Bangladesh entering the 4IR. In this modern age, where perhaps the most crucial aspects are the ability to be adaptive and forward-thinking, Bangladesh is an epitome because it highlights the urgency of strategic foresight and proactive measures. This chapter invites the readers to follow the journey of Bangladesh in pursuit of a future marked by technology and inclusion. When a country tries to adapt to new changes, it faces challenges in conserving its tradition, culture, and identity. But Bangladesh is heading toward a future that integrates innovation and tradition. There will also be a look at government initiatives to develop technology in Bangladesh while preserving their distinctive features.
COVID-19 Pandemic Management through Civil Administration: Lessons from Bangladesh
Authors: Islam Mohammad
Published: February 2025

The COVID-19 pandemic, also known as SERS, began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 and has significantly impacted the global economy, healthcare, education, human rights, basic food security, and nutrition (WHO, 2020). Bangladesh, a lower-middle-income country in Southeast Asia, has experienced rapid economic progress but has been severely affected by the virus (Panday, 2020). The government took various steps to control contamination, including identifying suspected cases, ensuring quarantine, establishing RT-PCR labs, starting COVID tests, suspending mass gatherings, declaring a lockdown, and providing food to informal workers. However, the civil administration faced challenges such as non-adherence to strict lockdown, a lack of face masks, inadequate relief for informal workers, corruption, and conflict between bureaucrats and representatives of the people. The Ministry of Health has implemented essential precautions to prevent and control the pandemic, and the Bangladesh National Preparedness and Response Plan has been prepared. The cabinet's decisions are carried out by civil administration at both the central and field levels. Under the leadership of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh has done better than most other countries in preventing the spread of the coronavirus (Panday, 2021). The paper aims to explain how civil administration managed the COVID-19 pandemic and saved lives and livelihoods during the pandemic. It also presents new insights from the perspective of Bangladesh's public administration, which was forced to take measures with limited resources, governance challenges, and relief management to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Can Citizen’s Charter be Effectively Implemented at the Office of Deputy Commissioner in Bangladesh?
Authors: Ahsan Abu
Published: February 2025

Public institutions play a crucial role in safeguarding the foundations of modern democracy; and any potential deterioration or collapse of these institutions is a cause for grave concern (Newton & Norris, 1999). Establishing public confidence is an absolute necessity for service providers. Establishing trust in governing bodies, such as local government institutions, facilitates their operationalisation in accordance with the principles of the rule of law (Jamil & Askvik, 2016). To effectively address the complexities resulting from globalisation, economic growth, and democratisation, public institutions must prioritise establishing trustworthy relationships with various social actors and the general populace. The acquisition of legitimacy and the formation of partnerships are indispensable components for facilitating the efficient execution of public policies, especially in the provision of essential services. Local government institutions in Bangladesh, such as district administration, play a crucial role in delivering essential services to local communities (Faguet & Ali, 2007). In developing nations such as Bangladesh, where a sizeable portion of the population faces challenges associated with illiteracy and poverty, enhancing the provision of public services is of utmost importance. One of the primary responsibilities of the government is to provide a variety of services to residents of remote and peripheral regions. Local service delivery in Bangladesh is characterised by a high degree of centralisation and is governed by an extensive administrative structure (UNCDF, 2004; Siddiqui, 2005).

Published: February 2025

Introdução: Cannabis é a substância ilícita mais consumida no mundo, com efeitos fisiopatológicos descritos no sistema cardiovascular. No entanto, há informações limitadas sobre a síndrome coronariana aguda (SCA) desencadeada pela sua utilização. Relato de caso: paciente de 24 anos, 70 kg, 175 cm, sexo masculino, sem comorbidades, usuário de Cannabis (7 cigarros/dia), classificado como ASA II, que seria submetido a cirurgia de correção de fratura diafisária de clavícula. Após monitorização com cardioscopia, oximetria de pulso e pressão arterial não invasiva foi iniciada a indução da anestesia geral com fentanil (200 µg) lidocaína (60mg), propofol (130 mg) e rocurônio (40 mg). Paciente foi intubado e na transição da ventilação manual para a controlada mecânica houve mudança do ritmo cardíaco de sinusal para fibrilação ventricular. Com o diagnóstico de Parada cardíaca, pela ausência de pulsos carotídeo, foi iniciada a reanimação. Após dois ciclos houve retorno à circulação e a cirurgia foi cancelada. O paciente foi encaminhado para Unidade de Terapia Intensiva sem necessidade de drogas vasoativas. A extubação ocorreu após 24 horas quando o paciente relatou intensa dor precordial. Os exames complementares realizados mostraram elevação das enzimas cardíacas compatíveis com SCA, com apresentação de curva de enzimas cardíacas: troponina t: 3,1 - 15,3 - 11,4 (vr: 0,12); e de ckmb: 38 – 51 - 71,0. O eletrocardiograma com ritmo sinusal, onda q patológica e bloqueio de ramo direito do feixe de His. O ecocardiograma com disfunção sistólica do ventrículo esquerdo de grau discreto (fração de ejeção de 46%) com hipocinesia apical e segmento médio da parede anterior e inferior). Foi indicado cateterismo cardíaco em outra unidade hospitalar, porém o paciente evadiu antes da transferência. Discussão: Nas últimas décadas a quantidade média da substância delta-9-hidrocanabinol (THC) aumentou muito na cannabis, e em paralelo houve também um aumento nos relatos de eventos cardiovasculares. Tais casos têm sido relatados principalmente em pacientes jovens. Um aumento na estimulação autonômica, alteração na agregação plaquetária, vasoespasmo, além dos efeitos do THC promovendo inflamação endotelial e arteriosclerose, seriam os mecanismos responsáveis pelos ataques cardíacos em usuários. Conclusão: Como o uso da cannabis vem crescendo no mundo, seja para finalidades recreativas quanto medicinais, os médicos precisam expandir seus conhecimentos sobre o tema, conhecer os possíveis eventos adversos que a substância pode causar, para assegurar melhor atendimento em saúde e suporte a esses indivíduos.
NANOTECNOLOGIA PARA DIRECIONAMENTO DE SUBSTÂNCIAS ATIVAS PARA O TRATAMENTO DO CÂNCER DE MAMA: UMA ABORDAGEM PROMISSORA
Authors: Santos Franco Camila , Da Silva Lucas Maria Luisa , Ribeiro Rodrigues Davi Lucas , Levi Eduardo Soares Reis
Published: February 2025

O câncer de mama é a neoplasia mais comum entre as mulheres e apresenta diversos desafios terapêuticos e dentre eles, temos os efeitos secundários às terapias convencionais, como na quimioterapia. Nesse cenário, a nanotecnologia surgiu como uma alternativa promissora, permitindo o desenvolvimento de nanocarreadores que direcionam os fármacos diretamente às células tumorais e reduzem os danos aos tecidos saudáveis. O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma revisão sistemática para avaliar o potencial da nanoterapia no câncer de mama, segundo embasamento em 11 artigos da base de dados PubMed. Os nanocarreadores mais promissores incluem lipossomas, nanopartículas de sílica mesoporosa e dendrímeros, demonstrando eficácia na entrega de fármacos como a doxorrubicina, cisplatina e paclitaxel. As nanoformulações oferecem vantagens, como uma maior especificidade, uma menor toxicidade e maior duração da ação terapêutica. No entanto, desafios com o controle preciso do tamanho das nanopartículas e a eliminação precoce ainda têm de ser ultrapassados. Em suma, embora a nanotecnologia traga avanços promissores, como um potencial de revolução no tratamento do câncer de mama por oferecer abordagens mais eficazes e menos invasivas para os doentes, são necessários mais estudos para validar a sua eficácia e segurança a longo prazo.
Epidemiological and Clinical Study of Crimean–Congo Hemorrhagic Fever in Cattle and Humans in Maysan Province, Southern Iraq
Authors: Abood Hayder
Published: February 2025

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a serious tick-borne zoonotic disease with significant public health concerns, particularly in regions like Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. In Iraq, sporadic outbreaks have been reported since 1979. This study examines the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of CCHF in humans and livestock in Maysan Province, Southern Iraq, focusing on the connection between human and cattle infections.

The study utilized a retrospective approach, analyzing 34 human cases and 45 cattle infections through hospital records, patient interviews, and serological tests (ELISA). Results showed a higher prevalence among females (61.76%), with housewives being the most affected group (55.88%). Fever, body pain, and hemorrhagic symptoms were common. Cases peaked between May and August, mainly in Amarah District. In cattle, 84.44% tested positive for IgG antibodies, indicating past exposure, and 15.56% for IgM antibodies, suggesting recent infections. Tick density was notably higher in communal grazing areas, correlating with human infection hotspots.

The study concludes that CCHF remains a significant threat in Maysan Province due to ecological and human-livestock interactions. Preventive strategies, including surveillance, public education, and tick control, are critical for reducing disease transmission. Further research is recommended to explore environmental and livestock roles in disease dynamics.

La mise en oeuvre exagérée du droit international : la réception au palier fédéral canadien des traités sur les marchés publics
Authors: McKee Derek
Published: February 2025

Lorsque les juristes canadiens discutent de l’intégration du droit international en droit interne, ils se demandent souvent si le Canada respecte ses obligations. Cet article aborde le phénomène inverse : la mise en oeuvre exagérée du droit international. Une telle mise en oeuvre se produit lorsque les autorités nationales adoptent des mesures qui vont au-delà de ce qu’exige le droit international. Un bon exemple de ce phénomène est la mise en oeuvre fédérale des traités dans le domaine des marchés publics. Depuis les années 1980, le Canada a ratifié plus d’une douzaine d’accords commerciaux contenant des dispositions relatives aux marchés publics. Cependant, dans sa mise en oeuvre de ces traités, le gouvernement fédéral canadien est allé au-delà de ce que ceux-ci exigent. Le gouvernement fédéral a ouvert ses marchés publics aux fournisseurs venant d’autres pays qui n’agissent pas de façon réciproque. La mise en oeuvre est également renforcée par un tribunal administratif, le Tribunal canadien du commerce extérieur (TCCE). La législation qui habilite le TCCE lui confère des pouvoirs plus importants que ceux qu’un tel tribunal doit avoir, selon les traités. Sa compétence s’étend aux marchés publics non couverts par les traités. Et le TCCE a offert des protections que les traités n’exigent pas, comme la possibilité d’indemnités calculées selon les profits perdus.

ESTETIKA I IDEOLOGIJA KLASIČNOG HOLIVUDSKOG VESTERNA (1940 – 1970)
Authors: Božilović Nikola
Published: February 2025

Predmet rada je analiza estetskih i socijalnih činilaca koji su bili klјučni u komunikacijskom procesu klasičnog holivudskog vesterna sa publikom. Fokus je na vestern filmovima snimlјenim između 1940. i 1970. godine, periodu kada je žanr klasičnog vesterna bio ekstremno popularan u planetarnim razmerama. Razlozi tome su višestruki jer zahvataju estetsku, sociološku i psihološku sferu. Najpre, film je kao relativno mlada umetnost bio omilјen među gledaocima, a estetska struktura vesterna (tematika, način interpretacije, režija, gluma i ostalo) delovala je sugestivno privlačeći pažnju milionske publike. U radu se identifikuju i ideološke (sociološke) komponente komunikacije. Naročita pažnja posvećena je promeni odnosa filmskih autora prema Indijancima, koji su u početku predstavlјani kao divlјaci da bi se tokom vremena ta slika znatno objektivizovala i približila istini. Eksplikacija i egzemplifikacija teza vrši se preko tipičnih i karakterističnih filmova koji pripadaju kategoriji klasičnog vesterna. Pored toga, daje se komparativna analiza najistaknutijih autora ovog popularnog žanra, među kojima su Džon Ford, Hauard Hoks i Bad Betiker.
UMJETNIK KAO POBUNJENIK U SUSRETU SA EGZISTENCIJOM
Authors: Vilić Nataša
Published: February 2025

Vrijeme u kome živimo nam je pokazalo da umjetnik i u najsurovijim uslovima života pronalazi snage da progovara na način umjetnosti. Umjetnik se sada osjeća kao pobunjenik i zna da njegov stvaralački duh ne poznaje predah, jer stvaranje je preduslov opstanka čovječanstva. Umjetnik osjeća da mora svojim djelima da prevlada jedan destruktivni momenat u kome se našao čovjek u sadašnjem trenutku. Umjetnici iracionalno-destruktivne sile preobražavaju u konstruktivno-stvaralačke snage, gdje nagon života savlađuje nagon smrti. Siromaštvo duha današnjeg čovjeka jeste i u tome što se on sve više okreće ka nauci, koja ni sama još uvijek nema odgovore na pitanja i izazove sa kojima se ljudi trenutno suočavaju. Bez potrebe za transcendencijom svakidašnji život se naočigled gasi, nestaje i iščezava. Savremeni umjetnik je pobunjenik protiv takvog stanja, jer umjetnička djela nastoje da transcendiraju stvarnost. Svijet u kome živimo izgleda kao fabrikovani svijet bez slobode, ali sa medijski plasiranim prividom humanizma. U takvom svijetu umjetnik, i čovjek uopšte, lišavan je prava na istinsko umjetničko stvaralaštvo, a time i slobodu. Bunt savremenog umjetnika jeste bunt protiv neslobode upakovane u takozvanu dobrobit i brigu za čovjeka. Biti stvaralac znači biti slobodan čovjek koji kritički promišlja i slobodno govori, koji jasno iznosi svoj stav bez straha od osude ili represije. Biti umjetnik-pobunjenik znači biti čovjek koji traži i pokazuje istinu u stvarnosti, onu istinu koja običnom čovjeku u medijskom matriksu izmiče. Ovo je zadatak koji su pred sebe postavili umjetnici kraja 20. i početka 21. vijeka.
KULTURA I UMETNOST KAO SADRŽAJ KULTURNOG DNEVNIKA RADIO TELEVIZIJE SRBIJE: STUDIJA SLUČAJA
Authors: Necić Neda
Published: February 2025

Dvadeseti vek kao vek najvećih dostignuća omogućio nam je da vidimo svet čime je zauvek izmenjena sudbina savremenog čoveka. Posrednici u tom pogledu jesu masovni mediji, koji su učinili da kultura ne bude više rezervisana samo za više slojeve društva. Kultura je tako postala lako dostupna i namenjena svima bez izuzetka. S obzirom na to televizija i dalje predstavlja elektronski medij koji ima najveći uticaj na javno mnjenje, samim tim je i od velikog značaja za prezentaciju vesti iz kulture. Izveštavanjem o kulturi televizija podstiče stvaranje kulturnih obrazaca građana, i čuva nacionalnu kulturu i tradiciju. S druge strane, komercijalne televizijske stanice u Srbiji i širom sveta, kulturu i umetnost su zamenile rijaliti programima i drugim formatima zabave. Međutim, javni emiteri imaju profesionalnu odgovornost i zakonsku obavezu da izveštavaju o temama od javnog interesa, uključujući i teme povezane sa kulturom i umetnošću. Na taj način mediji ispunjavaju komunikacione potrebe građana, koje se ogledaju kroz tri osnovne uloge javnih servisa: informisanje, edukaciju i zabavu. Za potrebe ovog rada biće sprovedene kvantitativna i kvalitativna analiza sadržaja Kulturnog dnevnika Radio televizije Srbije tokom maja 2021. godine. Cilj ovog rada je utvrditi da li i u kojoj meri Kulturni dnevnik izveštava o različitim vrstama umetnosti, umetnicima, njihovim delima i kulturnoj politici Srbije, kao i da li na taj način ispunjava obrazovnu funkciju novinarstva, koja se smatra i osnovnom.
IDENTITETSKA NEODREĐENOST KAO ŽIVOTNA STRATEGIJA U FILMU ZEMLJA NOMADA I ROMANIMA BEKIMA SEJRANOVIĆA
Authors: Trninić Duško
Published: February 2025

U radu se analizira identitetska neodređenost kao savremena životna strategija u romanima Nigdje, niotkuda (2008) i Dnevnik jednog nomada (2017) pisca Bekima Sejranovića, kao i u filmu Zemlja nomada (Kloi Žao, 2020). Pozivajući se na postmoderne teorije identiteta, koje govore o životnim projektima i strategijama, rad se bavi pitanjima izbjeglištva, lutanja, skitnje, nomadizma, egzila, ljudi bez papira (tzv. sans-papiers), apatrida i slično. Poseban akcent je na teorijskim dostignućima u navedenom polju autora Zigmunta Baumana, Stjuarta Hola, Manuela Kastelsa, Ivana Čolovića, Majkla Harta i Antonija Negrija. Navedenim problemima se pristupa dvojako: odricanju od identiteta suprotstavlja se koncept odbacivanja domovine. U prvom slučaju radi se o dobrovoljnosti i slobodnom odustajanju od identitetske određenosti i iskorijenjenosti iz (etničke) zajednice, dok se u drugom slučaju radi o prinudnom odbacivanju identiteta, kao i identifikacije sa nekadašnjim životnim prostorom, a najčešće zbog ratnih stradanja, nemogućnosti ostvarivanja egzistencije i poremećenosti životnih uslova. Navedeni film i Sejranovićevi romani oslikavaju oba ova primjera i ukazuju na identitetsku neodređenost i odsustvo potrebe za teritorijalnom povezanošću, što predstavlja dominantnu paradigmu života u savremenom postmodernom društvu.
IZVEDBA VODE – UMJETNOST I ARTIVISTIČKE PRAKSE
Authors: Marjanić Suzana
Published: February 2025

Članak dokumentira suvremenu praksu water/river art kao artivističke glasove otpora opasnoj, globaliziranoj i neoliberalnoj priči o prodaji domaćih izvora vode na koju upozorava Vandana Shiva u knjizi Ratovi za vodu (2001). U urbanom okruženju sjećanje na lokalno znanje o najpoznatijem vrelu, fontani u Hrvatskoj – Manduševcu svojim je urbanim performansom Pad u Manduševac – Točno u podne (2002) demonstrirao doajen hrvatskoga performansa Tomislav Gotovac (slobodnim) padom u njegove vode, a u ruralnom prostoru bunara/zdenca svoga imanja u Štaglincu (nedaleko Koprivnice) performansom I bunar i zdenac (2010) doajenka hrvatskoga performansa Vlasta Delimar tematizirala je ruralno znanje o vodi iz bunara/zdenca. U navedenom kontekstu razmatram i umjetnički projekt Land art, Earth Art, Earthworks: z/Zemlja i antropocen koji od 2019. godine provodi zagrebačka Akademija likovnih umjetnosti (profesori Alen Novoselec, Zvjezdana Jembrih i Ida Blažičko sa svojim studentima) kao i niz ekološki angažiranih umjetničkih intervencija i instalacija Kristine Pongrac nastalih od 2017. do 2020. godine u svrhu očuvanja prirode i zaštićenih područja u Međimurskoj i Koprivničko-križevačkoj županiji.
MIGRACIJA MEDIJSKIH PUBLIKA U ONLINE OKRUŽENJE – PRIMJER BOSNE I HERCEGOVINE
Authors: Silajdžić Lamija
Published: February 2025

Digitalizacija je utjecala na brojne segmente naših života, pa i na naše medijske preferencije. U aktuelnom komunikacijskom univerzumu bilo ko prema bilo kome (eng. any to any), omogućeno nam je da sami “pakujemo svoj medijski paket” i budemo (pro)aktivni učesnik u protoku informacija u javnom prostoru i interakciji sa medijima. S ciljem propitivanja koje medije i ostale informacijsko-komunikacijske tehnologije koriste bosanskohercegovački građani, iz kojih izvora se najčešće informišu, te kakva je njihova interakcija sa medijima u digitalnom dobu, provedeno je istraživanje stavova građana Bosne i Hercegovine (N=937). Istraživanje je pokazalo da medijske publike sve više migriraju u online sferu i da se bosanskohercegovački građani najčešće informišu iz online izvora i medija. Sa druge strane, nisu baš aktivni u interakciji sa medijima, dakle, ne iskorištavaju u dovoljnoj mjeri prednosti koje im se kao recipijentima medijskih sadržaja nude u digitalnom dobu.
ПРОБЛЕМ НЕЗАПОСЛЕНОСТИ У РЕПУБЛИЦИ СРБИЈИ
Authors: Dajić Milan , Todić Marko
Published: February 2025

Незапосленост је један од најважнијих друштвених и економских проблема данашњице не само у Србији већ и свуда у свету. Може се рећи да проблем незапослености, његови узроци и приступ његовом решавању све више заокупља пажњу скоро свих земаља света управо због драматичних импликација које за собом носи. С обзиром на то да се свакодневно сусреће, њена појава и значење изгледају јасни сами по себи. Међузависност тржишта рада и становништва дефинисана је чињеницом да основна полуга тржишта рада, односно радна снага, зависи од броја становника као и од структуре становништва, како по узрасту тако и на основу пола, образовања, културе, здравственог стања и слично. Веома је битно да тржиште рада буде ефикасно, јер на тај начин као повратна спрега повољно утиче не само на број становника него и на квалитет живота и његов општи просперитет. Иначе, тржиште рада Србије данас карактерише велика незапосленост.
Teorija dediskurzacije i diskurzivno‐etička kritika diskurzivne proizvodnje ‘stanja rata
Authors: Pehar Dražen
Published: February 2025

Ovaj ogled nudi kratki prikaz teorije dediskurzacije kao teorije jednoga od važnih uzroka rata. Ključna tvrdnja teorije kaže da diskurzivni stavovi, kao što su laganje, proturječenje sebi, te kršenje obećanja, trebaju biti teorijski predstavljeni kao uzroci koji izravno doprinose pojavi stanja rata. Ogled također objašnjava u kojem smislu ova teorija implicira poimanje jezika kao generatora virtualnoga kolektivnog tijela. Treće, ogled se oslanja na Peloponeski rat kao empirijski dokazni materijal u prilog teorije dediskurzacije te objašnjava razloge zbog kojih se ona ne može pomiriti sa teoretiziranjem rata u tradiciji teorija ‘pravednoga rata’. Kao posljednje, ogled ističe neke etičke, epistemološke, i političke implikacije kako bi se, koliko je to ovdje moguće, pojasnila šira lepeza stavova na koje se teorija dediskurzacije obvezuje.
RAZVOJNA PERSPEKTIVA I ANALIZA UTJECAJA SUVREMENIH TENDENCIJA NA KONCIPIRANJE ODGOJA I OBRAZOVANJA KAO SREDSTVA DRUŠTVENE KONTROLE I REPRODUKCIJE
Authors: Beroš Ivan
Published: February 2025

Kroz povijest pa do danas postoje različite koncepcije odgoja i obrazovanja, a jedna od najprisutnijih jest koncepcija odgoja i obrazovanja kao sredstva društvene kontrole i reprodukcije. Promatrano u povijesnoj perspektivi razli[1]čiti pokreti i odgojno-obrazovni akteri djelovali su na koncipiranje te ciljeve odgojno-obrazovnih sustava, a trenutno je najsnažniji pokret globalne reforme obrazovanja (GERM) koji djeluje putem aktera ‘konzervativne modernizacije’. Odgojno-obrazovni sustav, kao jedan od društvenih podsustava, predstavlja poligon na kojem se kroz nacionalnu i globalnu obrazovnu politiku odvijaju borbe moći između različitih društvenih skupina. Pripadnici različitih grupacija aktera koji čine pokret ‘konzervativne modernizacije’ imaju različite ciljeve i moć djelovanja, a neoliberali su u praktičnom i vrijednosnom pogledu najsnažnija grupacija. Svaka skupina aktera ‘konzervativne modernizacije’ nastoji ojačati one elemente unutar odgojno-obrazovnog sustava koji im omogućavaju zadržavanje te povećavanje društveno-političke moći, a oslabiti one elemente koji slabe njenu društveno-političku moć. Da bi ostvarili postavljeni cilj koriste odgoj i obrazovanje kao sredstvo društvene kontrole i reprodukcije.
МИШЉЕЊА СТУДЕНАТА СМЕРА ЗА ОБРАЗОВАЊЕ ВАСПИТАЧА О БУДУЋОЈ ПРОФЕСИЈИ
Authors: Bukorović Marija , Gundelj Maja , Đorđević Anđela
Published: February 2025

Последњих година можемо чути како се у друштву полемише о значају професије васпитача. Недовољно се схвата захтевност посла васпитача и често се своди на ,,играње са децом“. Циљ рада је сагледавање мишљење студената смера за образовање васпитача у предшколским установама о будућој професији. Коришћена је дескриптивна метода и техника анкетирања. Онлајн упитником испитано је 200 студената Учитељског факултета у Београду, свих година основних студија, при чему је највише студената треће године (скоро 40%). За обраду података, осим фреквенција и процената, коришћен је χ2 тест помоћу којег смо тестирали разлике у одговорима студената различитих година студија, док је квалитативна обрада подразумевала категорисање одговора на питањима отвореног типа. Резултати указују да је највећем броју студената Учитељски факултет био једина опција и да је испунио њихова очекивања. Већина студената сматра да је васпитачки позив недовољно цењен у друштву, при чему су студенти 3. и 4. године свеснији таквог положаја, у односу на млађе студенте (1. и 2. године). У другом делу упитника, који се односи на особине васпитача, студенти су истакли да се у великој мери сећају својих васпитача и њихових важних особина као што су топлина, брига и љубав према деци. Сагледавајући резултате у целини, оно што студенти највише истичу у вези са васпитачким позивом јесу: љубав према послу, недовољна цењеност професије у друштву, мотивација да се васпитачки позив промени и учини бољим.
