Characterization and Modeling of the Influence of Initial Microstructure on Recrystallization of Zircaloy‐4 during Hot Forming
Authors: Grand Victor , Flipon Baptiste , Gaillac Alexis , Bernacki Marc
Published: December 2023

This article proposes a detailed study of the recrystallization of Zircaloy‐4 under hot forming conditions by means of experimental and numerical tools. Thermomechanical tests and characterization campaigns that have been necessary for this work are described. Then, the different microstructure evolution mechanisms are characterized, from the simplest one to the most complex. Grain‐growth kinetics are quantified, and the influence of the second‐phase particle population is analyzed. A complete study of dynamic and postdynamic recrystallization is provided. The occurrence of a continuous mechanism is confirmed, and the influence of thermomechanical conditions upon recrystallization is assessed. Later, the numerical framework used to simulate grain growth and continuous dynamic and postdynamic recrystallization is presented. After having successfully reproduced the grain‐coarsening kinetics with and without second‐phase particles, the model is used to describe continuous dynamic recrystallization and postdynamic recrystallization from an initial equiaxed and fully recrystallized microstructure. The agreement between experimental and numerical results is assessed in detail. Finally, postdynamic recrystallization is simulated, starting from two deformed microstructures characterized by the electron backscatter diffraction technique and immersed into simulations. This allows capturing and discussing the influence of the initial microstructure.

During operation, structural components made of zirconium alloys are subject to neutron irradiation, which leads to the displacement of zirconium atoms from their lattice sites, the production of self-interstitials and vacancies, and eventually dislocation loops. This process can lead to deleterious effects such as irradiation growth, creep, and embrittlement as well as accelerated aqueous corrosion. Quantitative analysis of dislocation line densities is seen as an important pathway for distinguishing between the irradiation response of different alloys. The analysis of irradiation damage using X-ray diffraction (XRD) line-profile analysis has proven to be a powerful complementary technique to transmission electron microscopy, which samples a comparatively large volume and is less affected by the subjectivity of image analysis. In this paper we present and analyze three different types of XRD experiments, describing their purpose and the new insight achieved using each technique. First, we present work carried out on neutron-irradiated samples, comparing dislocation line densities measured by XRD with macroscopic growth measurements. A second experiment using a synchrotron-based X-ray microbeam enabled the mapping of dislocation line densities as a function of depth from the surface of proton-irradiated zirconium alloys. These data are compared with calculated damage profiles, providing new insight into the early saturation of damage. Finally, the last example presented here focuses on synchrotron-based 3D XRD measurements, for which dislocation-loop line densities were analyzed in hundreds of individual grains, providing excellent statistics about the grain-to-grain variability of line densities.
Specificity of Insecure Attachment in Adolescents With Borderline Personality Disorder in Psychiatric Inpatient and Community-Dwelling Adolescents
Authors: Obi-Obasi Onyinyechi , Cano Kiana , Sharp Carla
Published: December 2023

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) has been conceptualized as a disorder of attachment. However, the specificity of attachment insecurity to BPD in adolescents remains unclear. In this study, an inpatient sample (n = 521), of which 173 (33.2%) met the criteria for BPD, and a control sample of community-dwelling adolescents (n = 294) ages 12-17 were compared on a self-report measure of attachment security. In addition, hierarchical regression analyses were carried out to examine the incremental contribution of BPD symptoms, over and above internalizing and externalizing symptoms, in predicting attachment security. Results showed expected group differences such that adolescents with BPD evidenced higher levels of attachment insecurity to both fathers and mothers than psychiatric and community-dwelling controls. BPD features also incremented internalizing and externalizing problems associated with attachment security. However, because psychiatric controls also evidenced high levels of attachment insecurity, we conclude that while attachment insecurity is particularly salient for BPD, it is not necessarily specific to the disorder.
Long-term Effects of Nicorandil Combined with Dihydropyridine Calcium Channel Blockers on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease: A Real-world Observational Study
Authors: Cheng Jia , Zhang Zixuan , Shu Hongyang , Hang Weijian , Zhao Qingqing , Zhao Jinzhao , Xiao Zhichao , Zhou Ning
Published: December 2023

Objective: This study was aimed at investigating whether the addition of nicorandil to a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (DHP-CCB) regimen might decrease the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).

Methods: A multicenter, retrospective, real-world study was conducted. Between August 2002 and March 2020, 7413 eligible patients with CHD were divided into DHP-CCB plus nicorandil combination (n = 1843) and DHP-CCB (n = 5570) treatment groups. The primary outcome was MACE, defined as a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, and all-cause mortality. Propensity score matching was used to adjust for confounding factors.

Results: After propensity score matching, combination therapy, compared with DHP-CCBs alone, was associated with a lower risk of MACE (HR: 0.80, 95% CI: 0.67–0.97). The combination group also had a lower risk of stroke (HR: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.44–0.69), but not myocardial infarction (HR: 1.21, 95% CI: 0.91–1.61) or all-cause mortality (HR: 1.24, 95% CI: 0.63–2.44). Subgroup analysis revealed more prominent benefits of the combined treatment on MACE in patients with than without diabetes.

Conclusions: The combination of nicorandil and DHP-CCBs may be more beneficial than DHP-CCBs alone in decreasing long-term risks of MACE and stroke in patients with CHD.

Using the Biopsychosocial Framework to Address the Ongoing Impacts of the Indian Residential School System and Colonization in Canadian Health Care Systems
Authors: St. James Rebecca , Paul Jocelyn Marie
Published: December 2023

Traumatic experiences during childhood can have significant, detrimental impacts on physical and mental health and negatively impact social functioning in adulthood. Such an understanding is imperative to providing adequate and well-informed health care to Indigenous populations residing on the land now called Canada. The Indian Residential School (IRS) system, which was in operation for over one hundred years, was one of the most violent colonial tactics implemented by Canada's federal government. This system was conceptualized to forcibly alienate Indigenous children from their families, communities, and culture to eradicate Indigenous culture and identity. Combined with witnessing violent acts perpetrated by colonizers against members of their community, the shared experience of being abducted from their families, and suffering physical, mental, emotional, and sexual abuse, led to widespread trauma amongst Indigenous people for generations. It is expected that such trauma has resulted in disruptions in attachment, social functioning and emotional development in individuals who survived the Indian Residential School system, thus potentially triggering a cascade of maladaptive, trauma-related behaviours through subsequent generations (termed intergenerational trauma). These writers recommend that healthcare providers consult a biopsychological framework when engaging with Indigenous individuals, especially Indian Residential School survivors and their relatives, as it emphasizes the multidirectional relationship between psychological, biological, and experiential factors implicated in an individual's well-being. Furthermore, such a framework may aid in contextualizing an individual's unique challenges within the broader scope of colonization.
"There's no way I'm gonna meet their expectations":
Authors: Takazawa Chen Millie
Published: December 2023

The persistent nature of patriarchal gender norms in Japan is well-known globally despite the nation’s commitment to achieving the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, one of which includes gender equality. This paper seeks to introduce and explore the personal narratives of Japanese expatriate women and youth diaspora in the United States to understand how they perceive gender roles in Japanese society and culture. Over the course of two months in 2021, bilingual open-ended interviews were conducted with ethnic Japanese expatriates and diaspora residing primarily in the Mid-Atlantic United States. Utilizing attitude development theories and existing research on cultural identity, this study provides a new look at the intersections between gender roles, migration, and what it means to accept—or reject—identity. New avenues of research are recommended to further discussions of gender norms, culture, and community by including the lived experiences of historically underrepresented populations.
Reformasi Pelatihan KNIL Tahun 1938-1942: Persiapan Hindia Belanda Menghadapi Ekspansi Jepang
Authors: Utama Taqwa Ridlo
Published: December 2023

KNIL adalah kesatuan militer pemerintah kolonial Hindia Belanda. Pada tahun 1930an, dengan melihat ancaman terjadinya perang pasifik dan ekspansi oleh militer Jepang, pihak pemerintah kolonial Hindia Belanda merencanakan melakukan reformasi dalam kesatuan KNIL sebagai upaya untuk meningkatkan kekuatan militer. Reformasi KNIL dimulai pada tahun 1936, dengan fokus awalnya yaitu dalam hal peremajaan dan peningkatan jumlah alutsista. Pada tahun 1938, pemerintah kolonial mulai merambah dan berbenah dalam bidang pelatihan militer yaitu dengan membentuk Korps Perwira Cadangan (CORO). Dengan melihat ancaman perang yang semakin didepan mata, pada tahun 1940 oleh pemerintah kolonial diputuskan untuk membentuk dinas pelatihan lainnya untuk meningkatkan jumlah pasukan yang ada. Pemerintah kolonial Hindia Belanda kemudian memutuskan untuk membangun sebuah Akademi Militer di Bandung (KMA), dan dinas Pelatihan Penerbang Cadangan (VVC). Selain itu, diputuskan juga untuk melatih milisi melalui kebijakan wajib militer. Tulisan ini akan mencoba membahas terkait dengan pelaksanaan berbagai pelatihan militer yang telah dibentuk tersebut. Metode penelitian yang akan digunakan merujuk pada metode penelitian sejarah.

Abstrak: Tulisan ini membahas mengenai perusahaan pertambangan minyak dan gas bumi negara (Pertamina) ketika Ibnu Sutowo menjabat sebagai direktur utama. Pokok permasalahan dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana kinerja perusahaan Pertamina selama berada di bawah kepemimpinan Ibnu Sutowo. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana pengelolaan perusahaan Pertamina sejak pertama kali didirikan hingga pada masa akhir jabatan Ibnu Sutowo dan untuk menjabarkan pengaruh dari gaya kepemimpinan Ibnu Sutowo selama menjabat sebagai direktur utama terhadap kinerja perusahaan Pertamina. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian sejarah, tulisan ini menghasilkan penemuan bahwa dalam waktu yang relatif singkat, Pertamina telah mengalami pasang surut perusahaan. Di bawah kepemimpinan Ibnu Sutowo, Pertamina berhasil berkembang pesat dan dikenal oleh dunia perminyakan internasional, berkat Ibnu Sutowo, Pertamina dapat menjadi ladang penghasilan dan sumber modal bagi pembangunan negara pada saat itu. Namun dibalik kesuksesannya, Pertamina sempat tertimpa permasalahan serius menyangkut keuangan perusahaan yang selanjutnya kita kenal sebagai Krisis Pertamina tahun 1975.

 

Abstract: This paper discusses the state oil and gas mining company (Pertamina) when Ibnu Sutowo served as president director. The main problem in this study is how Pertamina's company performed during its time under the leadership of Ibnu Sutowo. The purpose of this study is to find out how Pertamina's company has been managed since it was first established until the end of Ibnu Sutowo's term of office and to describe the influence of Ibnu Sutowo's leadership style during his tenure as president director on Pertamina's company performance. Using historical research methods, this paper resulted in the discovery that in a relatively short period of time, Pertamina has experienced the company's ups and downs. Under the leadership of Ibnu Sutowo, Pertamina managed to develop rapidly and was known by the international petroleum world, thanks to Ibnu Sutowo, Pertamina was able to become an income field and source of capital for the development of the country at that time. But behind its success, Pertamina was hit by serious problems regarding the company's finances which we later know as the Pertamina Crisis in 1975.
Kehidupan Gelandangan di Jakarta Tahun 1962-1977
Authors: Pratama Agustian Aditya , Wasino Wasino
Published: December 2023

Jakarta in the early 1960s has experienced a fairly large urban development. The lighthouse project launched by President Soekarno in the early 1960s has made the migration of villagers to Jakarta more frequent. The majority of residents who come to Jakarta are poor and lack skills, which allows them to work in many informal sectors in Jakarta such as pedicab drivers, street vendors and even the homeless. The problem in this study discusses the increase in vagrants in Jakarta in 1962-1977, as well as the purpose of this study to find the beginning of the increase in vagrants in Jakarta and the Government's strategy in dealing with vagrants.
Soehadi Prijonegoro: Dokter Jawa Pertama di Sragen
Authors: Lutfiana Novisa Hayiq
Published: December 2023

Doctors play an important role in developing health services for the community, but the government's lack of attention to health makes the presence of doctors very minimal. The situation was getting worse, and there was a change in policy on ethical politics, which gave birth to native doctors who were placed in various regions so that they could spearhead the development of health services, including doctor Soehadi Prijonegoro.

This study aims to discuss: (1) health conditions and the availability of health services in Surakarta, especially Sragen, at the beginning of the 20th century. (2) the background of Dr Soehadi Prijonegoro, and (3) the role of Doctor Soehadi Prijonegoro in developing health services in Sragen 1933-1978. This historical research uses historical research methods, which include heuristics, source criticism, interpretation and historiography.

The results of this study indicate that health services in Sragen before 1933 were very limited and paid little attention. An epidemic and a shortage of health workers prompted the Regent of Sragen to work in Sragen. In 1933 Dr Soehadi Prijonegoro was sent to Sragen to serve the community. From 1933-1978, Dr Soehadi accompanied the development of health services in Sragen, which was indicated by establishing various health services in Sragen.

The conclusion of this study is the presence of Dr Soehadi as the only doctor in Sragen for 30 years has made him responsible for the health sector for the people of Sragen. During his tenure, he has accompanied the development of health services in Sragen, which is growing rapidly.
Examining Student Gendered Experiences with Parent Involvement in The Bahamas
Authors: Bowe Anica G.
Published: December 2023

Within English-speaking Caribbean K-12 schooling systems, there has been a consistent trend of boys performing at a lower academic standard than girls. Caribbean scholars suggest approaching gendered achievement patterns from multiple perspectives, dimensions, and methodologies to help clarify the inequities that are prevalent in Caribbean schooling. To address this call, I narrow attention onto the Bahamian family context and raise the question as to whether parent involvement with schooling in The Bahamas differs for boys versus girls. Survey data (parents, n = 377) came from a comprehensive study on parent involvement with schooling that took place in Grand Bahama during summer of 2018. Multivariate analysis of factor scores using two scales, Basic Needs Involvement (11-item scale) and Academic Involvement (3-item scale), showed that parental involvement was similar for boys and girls. Like previous findings in The Bahamas, there were more girls enrolled in private schools than boys. Findings are discussed in terms of societal perceptions about whose education is valued, mandates for gender parity, the impact global trends have on local trends, and moving towards empirical-based theories for gendered achievement patterns within Caribbean societies.
Legal Rape in The Bahamas
Authors: Moxey-Adderley Theresa , Walker Berthamae L.
Published: December 2023

The Bahamas is reported to have a high per capita number of rapes and this has led to concerns about rape in general and other issues concerning gender-based violence. The focus of this scoping review of the literature, while cognizant of these concerns, is more narrowly focused on the act of a husband forcing his wife to have sexual intercourse with him when she does not wish to do so.

The article analyzes and considers in detail the positioning of two countries – Israel and North Korea – in relation to the war in Ukraine, which changed the structure of the world order and security architecture in Europe and, in general, in the world, as well as reset the relations of the Ukrainian state with its partners. The author characterizes the foreign policy activities and diplomacy of the countries at the present stage in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war, taking into account globalization processes, technological innovations and national interests of these states. It is determined that Israel and North Korea, as countries with different political systems, respectively, have different positions in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian confrontation. First of all, the author analyzes the foreign policy and position of Israel, which, as a democratic country, uses its diplomacy to actively participate in international relations. Particular attention is paid to Israel’s reaction to the war in Ukraine, which expresses restrained support for the Ukrainian state, supports its sovereignty and territorial integrity and condemns Russian aggression, but does not want to have a confrontation with Russia, so Israel limits its practical assistance to Ukraine mainly to the humanitarian dimension, with a categorical refusal to transfer high-tech weapons of its own production. North Korea represents a country where the authoritarian regime shapes the country’s foreign policy, emphasizing military technology as the main element of security and influence. The analysis shows that North Korea has traditionally been isolated from the international community and actively supports the aggressor country, in particular to benefit economically from closer ties with its northern neighbor, whose economy has so far been kept afloat despite harsh economic sanctions by Western countries. The study highlights key aspects of security, foreign policy, and diplomacy that influence the countries’ positions in the context of the war in Ukraine.

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ФОРМУВАННЯ ЗОВНІШНЬОПОЛІТИЧНОГО ІМІДЖУ ІЗРАЇЛЮ
Authors: PETROV Pavlo
Published: December 2023

У рамках зазначеного дослідження проведено комплексний аналіз особливостей формування зовнішньополітичного іміджу Ізраїлю в сучасних міжнародних умовах. Метою статті виступає змістовне визначення ендогенних та екзогенних чинників формування зовнішньополітичного іміджу Ізраїлю. Актуальність окресленої тематики полягає у першу чергу у геополітичному положенні Ізраїлю, що первинно характеризується багатьма негативними факторами, але незважаючи на такі держава має якісне позиціонування у сучасному міжнародному просторі. Така специфіка, постає особливо актуальним для ряду транзитивних країн, зокрема для України. Ізраїль знаходячись під десятиріччями загрози прямого конфлікту, відсутністю достатньої кількості енергоресурсів та інші синонімічні фактори сформував таку політичні, публічну систему, що дозволяє йому незважаючи на ці базисні фактори, в класичному теоретико-практичному розумінні формування іміджу держави, сформувати позитивне уявлення у міжнародному ментальному просторі. В контексті дослідження особливостей формування зовнішньополітичного іміджу Ізраїлю було приділено особливу увагу використання ним глобальних тенденцій, а саме використання цифрових технологій у іміджебудуванні. Досліджено особливості модернізації політичних інститутів як ендогенного та екзогенного чинників формування іміджу. Приділено увагу демократичній складовій у загальному контексті дослідження. Окремої уваги у рамках дослідження особливостей формування зовнішньополітичного іміджу Ізраїлю набуло значення вивчення екзогенних чинників, що здійснюють безпосередній вплив, але є підконтрольними йому.Висновки дослідження чітко окреслюють ендогенні та екзогенні чинники формування іміджу Ізраїлю з урахуванням особливостей його геополітичного положення, продемократичних трансформації. Серед первинних чинників формування зовнішньополітичного іміджу Ізраїлю виділяється цифровізації, що втілений, у першу чергу, до сфери публічної дипломатії та узагальнено до внутрішньої та зовнішньої комунікації Ізраїлю.

Este artigo versa sobre a proibição da linguagem neutra em escolas de Porto Alegre, RS, mediante a Lei n. 13.154/22. Com o intuito de analisar o fato ocorrido com uma literatura sociológica, movimentou-se Habermas para pensar a facticidade e validade dessa proposta legislativa que surge não apenas nesta cidade, mas em diversas no Brasil, demonstrando-se praticamente um fenômeno social de pânico moral, este alinhado a uma agenda conservadora. A lei demonstra-se, sobretudo, um instrumento para perseguir e detectar quem pensa de maneira inclusiva, escrita num tom de preocupação com a língua portuguesa, mas que está mais para uma luta para impor uma narrativa ideológica do que qualquer outro sentido. Narrativa esta, estritamente moralista, tradicional e com um fundo preconceituoso.

This volume is the result of a comprehensive analysis of one of Tell el-Dabʿa's residential areas, the ancient Avaris, one of the largest cities of the Eastern Mediterranean in the second millennium BCE. The presentation of the domestic architecture and material culture aims at reconstructing the socio-economic setting of one neighborhood (F/I) of the site and its inhabitants. On the basis of the theoretical foundations and methodological considerations from the field of household archaeology, this study paints a vivid picture of daily life in a borderland of Egypt in the late Middle Kingdom and early Second Intermediate Period (ca. 1770-1650 BC). The archaeological evidence for household life cycles and generational change gives a rare insight into the development of such a borderland society with mixed cultural backgrounds. With its seaport, the site eventually became an important hub in the trade exchange and commerce of the Eastern Mediterranean. The development from a formerly egalitarian society into one with a hierarchical structure is a rare example of settlement dynamics in Egypt. This publication thus contributes another piece of the puzzle helping to uncover the historical and political setting of a site that played a decisive role as the capital of the Hyksos dynasty. This study reveals the multicultural environment in this important centre at the crossroads of Egypt, the Eastern Mediterranean and the wider Near East.
Role of Actinomyces spp. and related organisms in the development of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ): Clinical evidence based on a case series

Published: December 2023

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is an increasingly common consequence of antiresorptive treatment, which often leads to the development of necrotic exposed bone surfaces with inflammatory processes affecting the jawbone. Although the development of MRONJ is often associated with the inflammatory response or infections caused by the colonizing members of the oral microbiota, the exact pathogenesis of MRONJ is still not fully understood. In the present paper, we aimed to provide additional, microbiological culture-supported evidence, supporting the “infection hypothesis” that Actinomyces spp. and related organisms may play an important pathogenic role in the development of MRONJ and the resulting bone necrosis. In our case series, all patients presented with similar underlying conditions and anamnestic data, and have received antiresorptive medications (bisphosphonates or a RANK ligand (RANKL) inhibitor) to prevent the occurrence or progression of bone metastases, secondary to prostate cancer. Nevertheless, a few years into antiresorptive drug therapy, varying stages of MRONJ was identified in the mentioned patients. In all three cases, quantitative microbiological culture of the necrotic bone samples yielded a complex microbiota, dominated by Actinomyces and Schaalia spp. with high colony counts. Additionally, our followed-up case series document the treatment of these patients with a combination of surgical intervention and long-term antibiotic therapy, where favourable clinical responses were seen is all cases. If the “infection hypothesis” is valid, it may have significant consequences in the preventative and therapeutic strategies associated with this disease.

An optical scheme of a device for determining the temperature dependence of the surface concentration of molecules in an adsorbed film is described. The temperature dependence of the surface concentration of molecules in the adsorbed layer of chromium hexacarbonyl is obtained. The measurements were carried out using an SF-56 spectrophotometer and an optical cell. The optical cell makes it possible to increase the "conditional" thickness of the investigated layer of the substance, and thus measure the value of the absorption coefficient.
Misja mediów a pokój w czasach przełomu
Authors: Mikos Marek
Published: December 2023

Na pytanie o misję człowieka na Ziemi chrześcijaństwo ma jasną odpowiedź. Tą misją jest głoszenie Dobrej Nowiny, z jaką przyszedł na Ziemię Jezus Chrystus. Z tego zadania, które jest jednocześnie ponad ludzkie siły i na ludzką miarę, nie jest zwolniony żaden człowiek. Jak skutecznie ma się z niego wywiązać chrześcijanin, spełniając zarazem zapisaną bezwarunkowo w Dobrej Nowinie zasadę miłości każdego bliźniego, poszanowania jego wolności, czynienia pokoju, głoszenia prawdy i sprawiedliwości? Jak to przesłanie ma przekazywać niewyznawcom, by mogło stać się podstawą spotkania i dialogu? Po uporządkowaniu odpowiedzi na te pytania w kontekście misji mediów skupiam się na zagadnieniu: jak powyższe ustalenia przełożyć na komunikację społeczną czasów przełomu. Pytam, jak do ponadczasowej misyjności mediów, której niezbywalnym warunkiem jest czynienie pokoju, ma się czas przełomu i walki porządków wartości, w którym żyjemy. Stawiam zagadnienie dopuszczalnych i niedopuszczalnych środków, jakimi można się posługiwać, wypełniając misję mediów. Pytam o retorykę wojenną oraz dopuszczalne granice jej stosowania. Na koniec przedstawiam propozycję „tarczy obronnej”, która pozwoli jak radar wychwytywać w rzeczywistości medialnej te sytuacje, w których sprzeniewierzenie się imperatywowi czynienia pokoju sprawia, że fundamentalna misja mediów jest zaprzepaszczona.

Authors: Qi Huaigao
Published: December 2023

The outbreak of the COVID-19 global pandemic has exposed deficiencies in global health governance. China has been active in making intellectual and material contributions to the global fight against COVID-19 while achieving significant progress in containing the epidemic domestically. China’s contribution to global cooperation in the fight against the virus can be reflected in: (1) China has actively shared its experience in COVID-19 control and the treatment of infected cases with the international community; (2) China has sent 37 medical expert teams to help improve measures of diagnosis, treatment, prevention and control in 34 countries as of July 2021; (3) China has done its best to provide medical supplies to more than 150 countries and 13 international organizations as of July 2021; (4) China has made efforts to make vaccine accessible and affordable in developing countries. The implications of China’s involvement in global health governance include: (1) advocating the concept of “building a global community of health for all”; (2) supporting the leadership role of the World Health Organization in global health governance; (3) improving the global health governance system and WHO’s ability; and (4) cultivating public health talent with knowledge of international rules and diplomatic skills.
COALITION CHOICE AND ELITE PERSONALISATION IN PARTAI AMANAT NASIONAL (NATIONAL MANDATE PARTY) FACTIONALISM 2020
Authors: Anky Lavica Anky Riswanda
Published: December 2023

This paper seeks to analyze the causes of factionalism within PAN in 2020. The findings show that a combination of two factors caused factionalism. First, the policy regarding coalition choice after the 2019 presidential election and elite personalization within the party. We interviewed several DPP PAN (PAN's Central Executive Board) officials and collected documents from the media, previous research, and the party's internal document to obtain the data. PAN's coalition choice was divided into three key factors. First, pragmatism to maximize power (office-seeking) instrumentally by influencing the government's policy. Second, the ideological factor related to party elites' effort to return PAN to a centrist party based on the 2019 election results evaluation where PAN's proximity to Islamic conservatives failed to boost votes. Third, there is regime intervention through legal criminalization threats to several PAN cadres. The personalization of Amien Rais exacerbated this coalition choice in PAN. Amien's influence can bring PAN tendency to be Jokowi's opposition even though it is not a formal party decision. PAN's coalition choice policy led to divisions due to Amien Rais' camp support to the Mulfachri Harahap candidacy in Congress.

This article aims to identify the weak mitigation policy in response to the increasing case number of Covid-19 and elaborate why lack a sense of crisis among community in Bangkalan Regency occurred. The local government is trying to suppress the increasing number of Covid-19 in Bangkalan Regency by restricting mobility during Eid al-Fitr and cooperating with the Surabaya City government and East Java province authority to provide proper healthcare system. As Bangkalan regency failed to deal with the crisis, Surabaya city government respond the emergency situation with social restriction policy in Suramadu bridge, which ended with rejection from Madurese community. This study uses the interpretive approach and narrative analysis techniques. The article fully uses secondary data from credible mass media and official documents related to handling Covid-19 in Bangkalan Regency from April-June 2021. The concept of policy gap is used as an instrument to analyze the factors that caused the policy failure in the Bangkalan Regency Government of the Covid-19 mitigation in the community. Result shows that not only political policy gap which making both policies ineffective, but also cultural policy gap.

One of the alternatives to revive the religious manuscript researcher and scholar passion is by providing an easy online reference about religious manuscript. Some manuscript researcher of ex-Office of Religious Research and Development Ministry of Religious Affairs have started to make and maintain an online repository about religious manuscripts since 2019. The plentiful manuscript data, which is resulted from research, contain philological description aspect and digital photo file needs to be followed up more than just a research report or catalogue. It also needs to be easily accessible by other scholar and researcher in an open access repository. This online repository, managed by the researcher team, contain almost 450 religious manuscripts from Madura. The other data that will be uploaded are Islamic manuscript found in Bali, manuscript by K.H. Ahmad Rifa’i Kalisalak, Syaikh Mahfudz Termas, and also from K.H. Hasyim Asy’ari. Using descriptive qualitative method, this paper aims to answer and introduce to three aspects, namely: a) the importance of providing an open access of religious manuscript using online repository; b) the content and general description of religious manuscript online repository; and c) the guidelines on how to access and download the manuscript from online repository.
Distribution of Lands by Prikazes of the Joseph-Volokolamsk Monastery at the End of the 16th – Beginning of the 17th Century (Based on Economic Books)
Authors:   Volgograd State University, Tseluykina Evgeniya
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The article is devoted to the study of the composition of the lands of the large patrimony of the Joseph-Volokolamsk Monastery at the end of the 16th and beginning of the 17th centuries, the distribution of subordinate territories by monastic prikazes, and the clarification of their names. Despite the fact that the expansion and methods of acquiring monastery lands have been studied in detail for the 16th century, a complete list of monastic villages at the end of the 16th and beginning of the 17th centuries was not compiled, and the issue of their distribution by prikazes – administrative-territorial units of patrimony management – was only touched upon. Methods and materials. The method of diachronic analysis of money and grain economic books of the end of the 16th and beginning of the 17th centuries has shown all the villages mentioned in them. The data obtained were compared with the land acts of the Compilation Book and systematized. Analysis. The resolutions of the Zemsky Sobors of 1580 and 1584 prohibited land contributions to monasteries; however, the cloister continued to receive new possessions. The prikazes, headed by the village elders, ruled the villages assigned to them. Results. A list of the villages of the Joseph-Volokolamsk Monastery at the end of the 16th and beginning of the 17th centuries, distributed by 6 prikazes and 11 counties, was compiled. There were 49 villages identified. One of them was not mentioned in the literature before. The general tendencies towards impoverishment and desolation of lands are noted, which were typical for the central part of the Russian state during the period of Smuta.
Unknown Documents on the History of the Astrakhan Uprising of 1705–1706 in the Collection of Reports to Boyar T.N. Streshnev from the Foundations of the Russian National Library
Authors:   Russian National Library, Alekseev Alexey
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The main corpus of documents on the history of the Astrakhan uprising of 1705– 1706 has been brought into scientific circulation and well studied. However, one of the most important documents – Peter I’s “Letter of Pardon” to the rebellious Astrakhans – was considered lost. Methods and materials. In the collections of the Russian National Library, we managed to find a collection of documents, which are copies of letters and relays addressed to the boyar T.N. Streshnev. It contains copies of two dozen documents for the period from 1702 to 1710. The owner of the collection of copies was a well-known representative of the bureaucracy of the first third of the 18th century, Ivan Topilsky. The manuscript should be dated to the 1720s. Analysis. The collection contains a set of four documents, which are important sources for the study of the Astrakhan uprising. Three letters are addressed to the boyar T.N. Streshnev. Only a letter from the boyar Prince Pyotr Khovansky, commander of the vanguard of B.P. Sheremetev’s troops, which reports on the mood in rebellious Astrakhan, has been introduced into scientific circulation. The letter of Field Marshal B.P. Sheremetev describes the course of hostilities during the capture of Astrakhan by government troops. The text of this letter is close to the text of the previously published letter of B.P. Sheremetev to F.A. Golovin. The letter of the Astrakhan metropolitan Samson is devoted to the description of the final stage of the pacification of the rebels. Most of the text of this document coincides with the letter of the metropolitan to Peter I, which was introduced into the scientific turnover. The fourth document is a list from the hitherto unknown “Letter of Pardon” of Peter the Great to the rebels. Familiarity with the text of the letter confirms the opinion of researchers that the letter was composed in soft tones. Peter I, having learned about the readiness of the rebels to bring their guilt to light, willingly grants them all full forgiveness with the obligation to put the rebellion in “eternal oblivion”, and never “reproach” any of the participants. Results. The text of two unpublished letters of B.P. Sheremetev and Metropolitan Samson to T.N. Streshnev, as well as the previously unknown text of Peter I’s “pardonable” letter, are introduced into scientific circulation for the first time on the basis of a list from the holdings of the Manuscripts Department of the Russian National Library.

High data transfer rates are required in modern digital radio transmission systems. But an increase in the data transfer rate leads to a deterioration in the transmission quality and a high BER (bit error rate). OFDM technology, which was introduced in the 1960s, implements all these functions. In this paper, the influence of fading channels on the transmission of information in OFDM systems is investigated. In wireless systems for transmitting discrete messages, the channel parameters greatly affect the transmission quality, as interference, noise and fading affect the useful signal. Fading is a very common phenomenon in wireless communication systems, affecting the phase shift of the signal. In an urban environment, multipath propagation of signals also takes place, since signals propagate along two or more paths before reaching the receiver. Depending on the signal propagation medium and communication conditions, small-scale fading can be distinguished. At the same time, there are significant changes in the amplitude and phase of the signal. Small-scale fading occurs on a smaller scale, comparable to the wavelength of the transmitted signal, and often changes throughout the signal path, and may change one or more times during the transmission time of the symbol, which leads to so-called flat (smooth) and frequency-selective fading. The results obtained show the effect of fading on the digital transmission system (OFDM). The three discrete message delay profiles used represent a low-, medium-, and high-latency propagation environment, respectively. A model of a wireless digital communication system (OFDM) has been built using the SystemVue software.
