THE CONTEXTS OF VASYL STEFANYK`S LETTER ABOUT THE STRUGGLE FOR THE UKRAINIAN UNIVERSITY
Authors: Nabytovych Ihor
Published: October 2022

The aim. To do a research through Vasyl Stefanyk’s epistles into his views on important social-historical and national-political phenomena and processes developing in Halychyna, namely in Lviv, at the beginning of the XXth century. It deals, first and foremost, with the need of starting a Ukrainian university in Halychyna as well as the participation of the metropolitan bishop of the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church Andrii Sheptytskyi in this important campaign.

The research methods. With the aim of elucidating the declared social-political problem the following methods are employed: cultural-historical and biographical.

The results. The article analyses the contexts of Vasyl Stefanyk’s letter, written in December 1901, to Father Kyrylo Hamorak. It is underlined that it is this letter that is an extremely interesting testimony of that epoch, that demonstrates the interest of both Stefanyk and his future father-in-law in political events concerning the struggle of the intelligentsia from Halychyna in order to create a Ukrainian university in Halychyna. The letter persuasively demonstrates the Ukrainian community’s special attention to the figure of Andrii Sheptytskyi, the metropolitan bishop of Halychyna. It is revealedthat the fight to create a Ukrainian university lasted throughout several decades but was not settled neither in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy nor in the Second Partition of Rzeczpospolita. The matter of the Ukrainian university was that first political event, in which, as wrote Vasyl Stefanyk in his letter, Bishop Sheptytskyi demonstrated that he “adheres to Rusyny in a loyal way”.

The scientific novelty: for the first time the attention is accentuated on Vasyl Stefanyk’s separate epistle, giving an insight into the multifaceted activities(foremost, social-political ones) of the writer and activist from Pokuttia, into his understanding of the need of establishing a Ukrainian university in Lviv and the participation of the metropolitan bishop Andrii Sheptytskyi in that.

THE CORPORAL ICONOTROPISM OF VASYL STEFANYK
Authors: Soletskyi Oleksandr
Published: October 2022

Aim. The paper deals with the mutual transition of visual experience into verbal one in acts of creativity evidenced from the poetics of bodily iconotropism by Vasyl Stefanyk. The author focuses on identifying and interpreting the writer’s texts as the ‘body’ of the author, relying on Stefanyk’s self-reflexions and self-commentaries about his creative modes. The purpose of the paper is to establish the functionality and expressiveness of ‘corporeality’ as a semiotic and metaphysical phenomenon.

Methods. The study follows a system of genetic, hermeneutic, and semiotic methods. The author draws on the scientific methodology of semiotics and hermeneutics, applies the cognitive theory of literature (cognitive poetics) tenets and research methodology of the psychology of artistic creativity. This is due to the distinctive nature of the study, its subject of inquiry and scope of research.

Results. The paper reviews the history of the corporeality poetics in fiction, noting its versatility and meaning-making focus, cultural and cognitive effects. Based on the studies of Stefanyk’s texts and epistolary, the main iconotropic qualities of ‘corporeality’ and their contribution to the formation of dominant images and meaning-oriented codes have been noted.

Originality. The paper is the first attempt for summarizing observations on the phenomena of corporeal iconotropism in the works of Vasyl Stefanyk and ascertaining their multilevel functionality for artistic modelling.

Practical significance. The paper provides a platform for further inquiry into the phenomena of corporeal iconotropism, the poetics of corporeality in fiction in general, and the work of Vasyl Stefanyk in particular. The findings can underpin coursework and graduation theses.
DECALOGUE VIOLATION BY VASYL STEFANYK'S NOVELLAS CHARACTERS
Authors: Martinyuk Ulyana
Published: October 2022

The article analyzes some works of Vasyl Stefanyk through the prism of Christian morality (Ten Commandments of God); the discrepancy between the ideas of the characters who love God, live under his protection, and their actions, which contradict the Lord's instructions, is investigated; parallels are drawn between individual episodes from the biography of the master of the expressionist short story and tragic human destinies in the pages of his life sketches; on the example of quotations from Stefanyk's works, attention is focused on the problem of non-observance of the biblical Decalogue by the heroes of short stories; systematized works on the fall and misdeeds of Pokut peasants; the tragedy of people on the border is shown; outlines the causes of distortion of human consciousness that lead to sin.

The article is based on a kind of parallel: biblical truths received by Moses on Mount Sinai – brought to despair, hopelessness, often suicide and crime, disadvantaged, hungry inhabitants of Pokut village, described by a true connoisseur of human psychology, singer of pain and truth Vasily Stefanyk.

The material for the analysis was a collection-summary of the first period of V. Stefanyk's work – a book of selected works "My Word", which included short stories from previous collections: "Blue Book", "Stone Cross" and two new short stories "My Word" and "Court".

Published: October 2022

The article discusses the use of graphic images for rapid diagnosis and the construction of biomedical software. Diagnostic features of morphological analysis of images of the human face for plastic and reconstructive operations are determined. The use of 3D images for the diagnosis of genetic diseases is considered. Recommendations for the use of three-dimensional modeling in this field have been developed. The use of morphing of 3D images of the human face for diagnostic tasks is proposed. A method of analyzing the compliance of age-related changes in the child's development with established norms based on the use of image morphing is proposed, which makes it possible to increase the efficiency of express diagnosis. The main requirements for the construction of software analogs of biomedical devices using 3-D models are defined, which is the basis for the construction of computerized modern bimedical devices and systems.
Peculiarities of Computer Analysis of Biomedical Images of Microcirculation of the Conjunctiva of the Eye

Published: October 2022

An analysis was carried out, which showed that the task of creating a system for evaluating biomedical images of pathologies of the vessels of the human eye is relevant and needs to be solved, since the existing methods and systems of evaluation, as well as the existing methods of processing biomedical images do not meet the modern requirements for such systems in terms of accuracy , the reliability of processing biomedical images, which leads to the occurrence of errors in the diagnosis in ophthalmological studies. The results of the comparison of the effectiveness of the Kirsch, Sobel, Roberts, Wallace, SUSAN algorithms for processing biomedical images based on the set of information diagnostic features formed are the most informative for image segmentation, the algorithms based on Kirsch filtering and the nonlinear Sobel filter. A system has been developed for evaluating dynamic changes in biomedical images, which allows to evaluate the state of blood vessels and determine the conjunctival index based on the following indicators: the ratio of the diameters of arterioles and corresponding venules; caliber irregularities; meander windings; microaneurysms; glomeruli; reticular structures of vessels; changes in the number of functioning capillaries; arteriolo-venular anastomoses; hemorrhages; perivascular edema; sludge phenomena; microthrombi
The Representation of “Difficult Pasts” in Military Museums
Authors: Caiado André
Published: October 2022

This work addresses how the history of the Portuguese colonial war and its mnemonic productions are (non)represented in the Portuguese Armed Forces museums (Army, Air Force, and Navy). Through an analysis of the textual and visual contents of the exhibitions, activity reports, and institutional communication texts; site visits; and interviews with the museums’ staff, I seek to identify and examine the contexts of creation of these spaces and the production of the exhibitions’ content. I conclude that these spaces manifest the complexity of addressing the colonial war and colonial pasts and communicating “difficult pasts” in military museums. When the topic is addressed, the exhibitions tend to focus on the Portuguese perspective of the conflict and elide its colonial nature. I advocate a reformulation of the colonial war musealization, in order to avoid the normalization of warfare and provide more plural and complex perspectives on this historical phenomenon.

Anthropology, Art, and Ethnographic Collections: A Conversation with Howard Morphy

Jason M. Gibson (JG): In your book Museums, Infinity and the Culture of Protocols: Ethnographic Collections and Source Communities (Morphy 2020), you begin with an anecdote of visiting the Pitt Rivers Museum as a young child. Did museums play a part in sparking an interest in humanity, and its diversity, or were you fascinated by the Other?

Book Review: Museums, Societies and the Creation of Value, Howard Morphy and Robyn McKenzie, eds. (London: Routledge, 2022)

What does value mean within and beyond museum contexts? What are the processes through which value is manifested? How might a deeper understanding of these processes contribute to the practice of museum anthropology? These questions are explored in Museums, Societies and the Creation of Value, which looks at collaborative work in museums using ethnographic collections as a focus. Most of the chapters involve collections from Australia and the Pacific—reflecting the origins of many of them in two conferences associated with the project “The Relational Museum and Its Objects,” funded by the Australian Research Council and the Australian National University and led by Howard Morphy. Bringing together early career researchers, as well as museum-based scholars who have many years of thinking through and learning with community-based research partners, makes evident how the processual shifts in museum anthropology toward a more collaboratively grounded practice have become normalized, but crucially also highlights the value of “slow museology,” as the editors note in their introduction (3), acknowledging Raymond Silverman’s (2015) term. While the editors caution that the core values of ethnographic collections and museums are not universal, the inclusion of chapters from beyond the Australia/Pacific region highlights that the foundational underpinning values and aspirations for cross-cultural work—“the desire for understanding” and “the desire to be understood” (22) are shaping much of the innovative museum-based work currently being carried out worldwide. Examples include Gwyneira Isaac’s chapter on 3D technologies of reproduction and their value for Tlingit of Alaska, and Henrietta Lidchi and Nicole Hartwell’s examination of how materiality and memory intersect in collections associated with nineteenth-century British military campaigns.

This paper investigates the effect of using discourse markers on the writing skills of Kurdish university students. By revising the related literature, it appeared that so far there is no consensus on the actual effect of the explicit presence of discourse markers on foreign language writing. Many studies concluded that different discourse markers have different effects on the writing of foreign language learners (Morell, 2004; Ying, 2007; Castro and Marcela 2009; Dariush and Mohamad 2015, etc.). The current research tries to find out if there are any cross-linguistic factors that could cause issues for students in EFL modules. Data for the current study were collected from essays written by Kurdish students at the English Department in Salahaddin University, Erbil. In total, 20 essays were received with total of 19872 words and total 261 DMs were found in the data. A mixture of quantitative and qualitative methods was used to analyse the data. The raw frequencies of the DMs were: Additive (101 = 0.5 %), Adversative (45 = 0.22 %), Causal / Conditional (83 = 0.4 %), and Temporal (32 = 0.16 %). The findings suggested that level of attention to and appropriate use of discourse markers were significantly unbalanced, and various misuses were found. Sample errors in using the DMs were selected for a qualitative analysis. It is recommended that discourse markers are taught individually not in groups with more focus on the more difficult discourse marker types.

The present study attempts to find out the distinctiveness of juncture(pauses within words, phrases and sentences) in English and central Kurdish. Juncture is the relationship between one sound and the sounds that immediately precede and follow it. It is a morphophonemic phenomenon with double signification , a suprasegmental phoneme which changes the meaning and is important for phonological descriptions of languages. The aim of this study is to see how juncture affects the meaning of words , phrases and sentences. Slow or rapid speech can also determine the use of juncture which marks the break between sounds and the phonological boundary of words, phrases or sentences. However, the ambiguity of meaning resulting from the placement of juncture can be solved by context. Stress placement on certain words also affects the use of juncture and leads to a change in meaning. In this study, English and Central Kurdish junctures were identified within words, phrases and sentences. Based on the data collected and presented, it was found out that juncture in English is distinctive at all levels , namely , simple words, phrases and sentences .In Central Kurdish, however, juncture is distinctive in compound words and sentences. As for the sentence level, because Kurdish is an agglutinative language, there are cases where the pause or juncture is closely related to the morphological structure of the words and the personal clitics and prefixes added to the end. As for the implications of the results in the field of practice , teachers must take these into consideration while teaching stress , intonation and other aspects of connected speech.

Semantic transfer, or sometimes semantic change, occurs when a word drops its old meaning and comes to refer to something different. This results in a change in a word’s meaning. The changes in meaning are usually gradual. Many words in both languages, English and Kurdish, have gone through semantic transfer, whether the change is an extension or narrowing of the original meaning of them. This paper compares a set of words in the two languages in terms of their semantically transferred sense of the original meaning they used to convey. Those words are sometimes used interchangeably by the Kurdish students as a result of language interference between their first language which is Kurdish, and English which is the target language of their learning.

The categories introduced to the world of science by Aristotle basically express the different situations necessary for the definition of a noun. According to Aristotle, who put forward 9 different categories related to the noun, the features that will distinguish an object from others are determined by these categories. In its definition, the noun is expressed as substance, while the other categories are determined as accidents. In addition, he mentioned 4 different causes of the existence of an object. All these are effectively used for word definitions, especially in dictionaries. The concepts of universal, which are related to the word, and differentia, which distinguish the word from others in its own kind, are the concepts that dictionaries especially focus on. Knowing and using these concepts correctly by teachers will help students understand better. This study was conducted to confirm this aim. In this study, 15 teachers were asked to define the given words and then the problematic situations in the definitions were mentioned to the teachers. Afterwards, the issue of categories and what universal and differentia are, were explained to the teachers and asked to redefine the words. In this case, it has been observed that teachers were more successful. In addition, the word definitions were given to the students, and they were asked what the word was. The rate of students knowing the words correctly was found to be sixty-two percent.

Authors: BEKTAŞ İbrahim , KİRAZ İlker
Published: October 2022

Dünyada nüfusun hızlı bir şekilde artması ve sanayileşme, doğal kaynakların kullanımında artışa sebep olmaktadır. Buna bağlı olarak orman kaynakları ve orman ürünlerine olan ihtiyaç da artış göstermektedir. Türkiye’de orman alanlarının mevcut yüzdesi (%27.5), birçok ülkenin yüzölçümünden fazladır. Çalışma alanlarından Batı Karadeniz Bölgesi, orman varlığı açısından oldukça zengin (% 64) bir yöredir. Diğer çalışma alanında (Doğu Akdeniz) bu değer % 40 dolayındadır. Söz konusu alanların orman varlığı ve ağaç türleri bakımından sahip olduğu çeşitlilik, ilgili yörelerde tesis edilen orman ürünleri endüstrilerinin farklılaşmasına neden olmuştur. Bu tespitler doğrultusunda, bu çalışmasının amacı, Batı Karadeniz ve Doğu Akdeniz orman ürünleri endüstrilerinde tercih edilen hammadde kaynakları ve temel karakteristiklerini araştırmak ve bir biri ile kıyaslamak olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu amaçla çalışmada, Batı Karadeniz (Bartın, Bolu, Düzce, Karabük, Kastamonu, Zonguldak) ve Doğu Akdeniz (Adana, Gaziantep, Hatay, Kahramanmaraş, Kilis, Mersin, Osmaniye) illeri orman ürünleri işletmelerine hammadde ile ilgili olarak anket çalışması uygulanmıştır. Verilerin analizi için SPSS veri analiz programı kullanılmıştır. Yapılan anket sonuçları, Orman Ürünleri işletmecilerinin en fazla ilgi gösterdiği faaliyet alanlarının Batı Karadeniz’de kereste endüstrisi (% 36), Doğu Akdeniz’de ise mobilya sektörü (% 42) olduğunu gösterdi. Yine, en çok tercih edilen iki hammaddenin Batı Karadeniz’de çam (% 29) ve kayın (% 25), Doğu Akdeniz’de ise çam (% 31) ve meşe (% 20) olduğu anlaşıldı. Analizler, Batı Karadeniz ve Doğu Akdeniz orman ürünleri endüstrilerinin en çok hammadde temin ettiği kaynağın sırası ile % 51 ve % 57 oranlarında Orman Genel Müdürlüğü olduğunu ortaya koydu. Aynı zamanda, çalışma alanları orman ürünleri sektörlerinin en çok satış yaptığı faaliyet kollarının her iki yöre için de çoktan aza doğru, mobilya, inşaat, taşımacılık ve demir-çelik endüstrileri şeklinde sıralandığı belirlendi. Nihayet, bir birinden oldukça farklı nitelikler taşıyan Batı Karadeniz ve Doğu Akdeniz yörelerinde orman ürünleri işletmecilerinin hammadde temini konusunda karşılaşılan güçlükler ve sahip olunan avantajlar hakkındaki görüşlerinin oldukça homojen olduğu çalışma kapsamında tespit edildi.

Authors: ATAR İlkay , MENGELOĞLU Fatih
Published: October 2022

Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) is an engineering product material used as girders, beams, joist, headers, panels, etc. in construction. In this study, the effect of ply combination on oven-dry specific gravity, equilibrium moisture content, thickness swelling and water absorption, tensile-shear strength, modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity and compression strength parallel to grain of LVL manufactured from alder and poplar was investigated. Alder veneer, poplar veneer and urea formaldehyde glue were used in LVL production. LVLs were produced in a total of 10 different combinations. Oven-dry specific gravity, equilibrium moisture content, thickness swelling and water absorption, tensile-shear strength, modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity and compression strength parallel to grain of test samples were determined according to TS 2472, TS 2471, TS EN 317, EN 314-1, TS 2474 and TS 2595, respectively. Based on this study, the highest modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity, compression strength and oven dry specific gravity values were obtained with alder veneers used in all plies. On the other hand, the highest tensile-shear strength values were obtained with poplar veneers used in all plies. With the rising in the use of poplar veneer in LVL production, an increase in the amount of thickness swelling and water absorption was observed. It was also observed that as contribution rate of alder veneer in lamination increases, oven dry specific gravity, modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity and compression strength values were increased.

Published: October 2022

The role and place of inspiring intuition and creativity in the management of innovative projects and development programs of organizations are considered. A conceptual model of the interaction of inspiring intuition and creativity in the process of managing innovative projects is presented. The influence of inspiring intuition and creativity on the life cycle of innovative projects for the development of knowledge and management technologies is determined. The key competencies and strategic priorities of the organization for the implementation of the strategy of sustainable development are considered. In the research process, two models of sustainable development based on the use of innovative projects and programs were selected. The first model, the Strategic Sustainable Development Framework (FSSD), defines three levels of creative competences – linear, literal and holistic. Within the framework of this model, the qualitative influences of individual competencies on the formation of inspiring intuition are determined by example. The second model is related to the application of knowledge and competencies in the management of innovative P2M projects and programs. Within this model, priority competencies have been identified that shape the inspiring intuition of project managers. Within the framework of the evaluations, a matrix of qualitative influences on inspiring competence in the processes of implementation of innovative projects and programs was built.

A study was conducted using the Dataflow diagramming to describe the information flows of the subject area "Comfortable living in an apartment building", where the construction process is presented in the form of a decomposition diagram and construction of a context diagram of the 0th level. Therefore, the DFD chart includes the following indicators of comfort: 1. Factors of comfortable living in the neighborhood. 2. Factors of comfort of the house territory. 3. Factors of home comfort. 4. Factors of apartment comfort, as well as a description of external entities (expert, buyer, construction company) and their impact on all indicators of comfort. Next, we present and describe the input and output data streams in which information is determined and transmitted from the source (process, external entities) to the receiver (external entities, processes). After constructing the context diagram, we obtained a complex system, which is further presented in the form of a hierarchy of the context diagram of the 1st level and contains a set of four subsystems and is connected by data streams and form data warehouses (environment, fuzzy set, norm), which are the prototype of the future database. As a result of research of the DFD chart of the 1st level we received: 1. The main functions are defined. 2. Described objects. 3. The main data streams are defined. 3. Creating an information system using data warehouses. The following is the 2nd level of the DFD chart and we use it for a detailed description of the information system, which provides an opportunity to consider in more detail the work of the designed system "Comfort of the neighborhood", namely the detail of the lower level process. Accordingly, each process coexists with the top-level process and I use the structural process numbers. We detail the process of the DFD chart of the 1st level 1.2, which contains 2 processes: (processing pedestrian accessibility, 1.2.2 Processing noise level) and describes the hierarchy of input and output data streams into the system. Next, we move from data warehouses to building a database model, which we present in the form of such diagrams (conceptual model, data model and physical model). The first step is to build a conceptual design, which is described using a table called "Attributes of entities and the relationship of entities). The second stage is the creation of a data model based on the created "Connection of entities", and has the following external keys: (norm, fuzzy set, linguistic variable). Next, we present a physical model where Microsoft SQL Server was processed and the data types are specified accordingly.

Testing building structures and their elements is a mandatory step in their development. This will prevent possible dangers to people during its operation and provide a positive image of the manufacturing company. Each design parameter is subject to testing. The test results are conclusions and recommendations, confirmed by the state certificate of Ukraine on the compliance of each of the studied parameters and the whole design with it. Experimental methods for studying the operation of any structure play an important role not only for assessing the stability and strength of a structure, but also for analyzing the developed working hypotheses and used theories. The role of experimental methods is constantly increasing due to the need to improve the quality of building structures, their reliability and durability. The test is a means to obtain information about the compliance of the real design with its theoretical model and, if necessary, confirm or refine its design parameters. The work is devoted to the analysis of testing of experimental prototypes of profiled flooring. A test of bent sheet profiles with trapezoidal corrugations has been carried out to determine the stability and bearing capacity of a steel profiled sheet T153-119L-840 according to a three-span scheme.

Particular attention is paid to the division of all systems into groups according to the logic of construction and functionality. The advantages and disadvantages of the systems of each group are noted. Basic (light) level systems that work in vector space have a closed mathematical model. It is emphasized that the modeling process depends on the considerations of the designer and is reduced to the iterative process of creating a drawing. Features of systems are given and variants of 2-D and 3-D models of real technical units and mechanisms in AutoCAD and Compass-graph systems are given. The systems of the middle group, which are created for 3-D modeling of products and calculations, are considered. Working in such programs, the developer uses electronic copies of real models, which allows you to use the modeling logic of assembly objects. The most complex are the higher level systems used for complex products, which include elements of complex shape and dense layout of a large number of assembly units. The study identified software packages Unigraphics (NX), ProEngineer, Catia, Creo. Complex systems have an open mathematical model of construction and allow end-to-end analysis of the model according to certain parameters. The paper also draws attention to another approach to modeling. So-called PLM and BIM technologies greatly facilitate the process of modeling objects, using a system of well-organized computer models instead of a separate set of drawings. The rapid development of cloud CAD operating in a virtual computing environment is noted. From the made analysis the prospects of further qualitative development of automated systems by parallel development of equipment park together with modeling technology are resulted.

The paper considers the approach to the formalization of the colorimetric (color) atlas of the construction site (СABS), which is determined by the subject area at the intersection of disciplines: materials science, structural mechanics and machine mechanics, technical condition control, photogrammetry, pattern recognition theory. Each of the above applied areas contains its own knowledge base, various information technologies that take into account the characteristics of each of them. The procedure of forming the concept of color atlas of the construction site in the intellectual information environment in construction, its features and composition, the difference from the usual procedures of forming the knowledge system, as well as the proposed and described approach to its study, the information interaction of the intellectual environment of the object object of construction. The possibility of constructing different formalizations of СABS on the basis of ontological and semantic graphs and the graph of the construction site image is shown. The problems that arise in the process of formalization and analysis of СABS in order to search for image elements are identified and described. The substantive structure of СABS and the equivalence of СABS graphs are determined, taking into account the possibility of introducing similarity measures. СABS in terms of pragmatic classification is a specialized finding of elements on construction sites. The work is performed in the framework of cluster analysis and focuses on the development of methods for constructing algorithms for recognition and identification of construction sites. For the described transformations, research was conducted on their observation in digital images, as well as the possibility of observing the invariants of transformations. The work was performed for СABS in order to determine the possibility of building its information model, taking into account the development of methods for constructing algorithms for recognition and identification on construction sites. The possibility of constructing СABS on the basis of a set of images is investigated, the possibility of corresponding visualizations of СABS СABS as a means of categorization is established.
SENTIMENT ANALYSIS OF ROMAN URDU REVIEWS
Authors: Muhammad Abdullah Aish
Published: October 2022

Easy access and economic availability of Computers, Tabs, Smartphones and high—speed internet people are now using web for Social interaction and Business correspondence. People are becoming habitual to post their reviews about any specific entity/product, they used. These reviews are very helpful for both—user and seller. Initially these reviews not too much they can easily be analyzed by reading them. The continuous increase in the amount of these reviews creates a need that reviews can be analyzed and useful pattern be found and explored through automated channel. This need leads to a new filed in the domain of research known as “Sentiment Analysis”. Sentiment Analysis is the study of people’s opinions, sentiments, attitude and emotions expressed in written language or also said that, it is a process of categorizing people’s opinions expressed in the piece of text especially in order to determine whether the writer’s attitude towards a particular topic or product is positive, negative, or neutral. This research is targeting the mining of the sentiments from these reviews of PSL anthums. In this thesis, five different classification model are used for text classification of reviews by using Rapid Miner Tool. Thesis presents a Sentiment Analysis of Roman Urdu reviews on PSL Anthums available on YouTube. These reviews are scraped, pre—process and analysed using Naïve Bayes, Gradient Boost Tree, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearist Neighbours and Artificail Neural Netwrok. The Roman Urdu Sentiment Analysis is perform at 7000 bi-lingual reviews. The Naïve Bayes and and Logistic Regression correctly predicted 68.86% reviews. ANN achived 68.86% on testing dataset and 69.71% on the validation of the results.

I’D VISIT A DOCTOR, BUT WHEN I PONDER IT, I GET THE BLUES: On affective atmospheres in medical anthropology
Authors: Sokolovskiy Sergei
Published: October 2022

The article deals with the issues of affective atmosphere conceptualization and atmosphere research. Using the concepts of affective atmospheres by such phenomenologists Hermann Schmitz (1928–2021), Gernot Boehme (1937–2022) and Tonino Griffero (1958), the author introduces the case of Russian medical institutions’ atmospheres. The use of the “atmospheric approach” in social sciences in general, and anthropology, in particular, allows one to resist the scholars’ prevailing distancing strategies that reduce social reality to mere statistical measurements or semiotics. Contemporary approaches to atmospheric design, implemented in many applied fields (urbanism, musical composition, theater, painting, marketing, etc.) give hope that medical anthropologists will soon be able to apply this knowledge for the transformation of medical institutions’ atmospheres into an independent and effective therapeutic tool that not aggravates, but rather facilitates the condition of visiting patients.
Emma Dowling: The Care Crisis
Authors: Butková Tereza
Published: October 2022

What is care and who is paying for it?Valuing care and care work does not simply mean attributing care workmore monetary value. To really achieve change, we must go so muchfurther.As the world becomes seemingly more uncaring, the calls for people to bemore compassionate and empathetic towards one another—in short, tocare more—become ever-more vocal. The Care Crisis challenges the ideathat people ever stopped caring, but also that the deep and multi-facetedcrises of our time will be solved by simply (re)instilling the virtues ofempathy. There is no easy fix.In this groundbreaking book, Emma Dowling charts the multi-facetednature of care in the modern world, from the mantras of self-care and whatthey tell us about our anxieties, to the state of the social care system. Sheexamines the relations of power that play profitability and care off inagainst one another in a myriad of ways, exposing the devastating impactof financialisation and austerity.The Care Crisis enquires into the ways in which the continued off-loading ofthe cost of care onto the shoulders of underpaid and unpaid realms ofsociety, untangling how this off-loading combines with commodification,marketisation and financialisation to produce the mess we are living in. TheCare Crisis charts the current experiments in short-term fixes to the carecrisis that are taking place within Britain, with austerity as the backdrop. Itmaps the economy of abandonment, raising the question: to whom care isafforded? What would it mean to seriously value care?
Michal Kolmaš: National Identity and Japanese Revisionism
Authors: Harašta Jakub
Published: October 2022

Over the course of the twentieth century, Japan has experienced a radicalshift in its self-perception. After World War II, Japan embraced a peacefuland anti-militarist identity, which was based on its war-prohibitingConstitution and the foreign policy of the Yoshida doctrine. For most of thetwentieth century, this identity was unusually stable. In the last couple ofdecades, however, Japan’s self-perception and foreign policy seem to havechanged. Tokyo has conducted a number of foreign policy actions as well assymbolic internal gestures that would have been unthinkable a few decadesago and that symbolize a new and more confident Japan. Japanesepoliticians – including Prime Minister Abe Shinzō – have adopted a newdiscourse depicting pacifism as a hindrance, rather than asset, to Japan’sforeign policy. Does that mean that “Japan is back”? In order to betterunderstand the dynamics of contemporary Japan, Kolmaš joins up the dotsbetween national identity theory and Japanese revisionism. The book showsthat while political elites and a portion of the Japanese public call for re-articulation of Japan’s peaceful identity, there are still societal andinstitutional forces that prevent this change from entirely materializing.
