Why the fuss? Friedman (1968) after 50 years
Authors: Laidler David
Published: October 2018

Friedman's presidential address was about ‘The role of monetary policy’. Its famous discussion of inflation–unemployment interrelationships was subservient to this broader topic. The program it promoted influenced monetary policy in the 1970s and early 1980s with mixed results, but enough of it survived to be a clearly visible influence on today's inflation-targeting regimes.
The wrong track also leads someplace: Milton Friedman's presidential address at 50
Authors: Storm Servaas
Published: October 2018

Milton Friedman's presidential address to the American Economic Association holds a mythical status as the harbinger of the supply-side counter-revolution in macroeconomics – centred on the rejection of the long-run Phillips-curve inflation–unemployment trade-off. Friedman (seconded by Edmund Phelps) argued that the long run is determined by ‘structural’ forces, not demand, and his view swept the profession and dominated academic economics and macro policymaking for four decades. Friedman, tragically, put macroeconomics on the wrong track which led to disaster: secular stagnation, rising inequality, mounting indebtedness, financial fragility, a banking catastrophe and recession – and no free lunches. This is Friedman's legacy. We have to unlearn the wrong lessons and return macroeconomics to the right track. To do so, this paper shows that Friedman's (and Phelps's) conclusions break down in a general model of the long run in which productivity growth is endogenous – aggregate demand is driving everything again, short and long.
Representing the majority and not the minority: the importance of the individual in communicating climate change

Abstract. This research presents three case studies, through which a creative approach
to developing dialogue around climate change is outlined. By working with
three distinct communities and encouraging them to discuss and write poetry
about how climate change affects them, we demonstrate how such an approach
might be adopted at this level. By analysing the discussions and poetry that
arose out of these workshops we show how this community-level approach to
communicating climate change is an essential counterpart to wider-scale
quantitative research. The engagement of each community with climate change
is dependent on the lived experiences of their members; a failure to
recognize this results in less
effective communications and can also cause communities to feel isolated and
helpless. By considering the individual needs and aspirations of these
communities we can support effective dialogue around the topic of climate
change, and in doing so can better engender positive action against the
negative effects of anthropogenic climate change.
“Breves notas sobre la lengua de Rintón y el antiguo dialecto griego de Tarento
Authors: Querol Donat Josep
Published: October 2018

Según los críticos de la Antigüedad, el fliacógrafo Rintón escribió sus φλύακες en el dialecto griego de Tarento, el cual está escasamente atestiguado tanto en las inscripciones como en la literatura. En este artículo, intentamos mejorar nuestro conocimiento de dicho dialecto, mediante el análisis lingüístico de algunos términos atribuidos por antiguos lexicógrafos a Rintón, viz. ὀλίος, σάννορος, Δίς, κομάκτωρ y κάρκαρον.
Τhe Homeric ἵστωρ and oath-taking
Authors: Basile Gastón Javier
Published: October 2018

The paper reassesses the role and function of the Iliadic ἵστωρ (Il XVIII 490-508; XXIII 448- 508) by focusing on previously overlooked narrative and linguistic details and drawing parallelisms between both scenes. The paper argues that the most fundamental cognitive operation performed by the ἵστωρ entails confining to memory and recording the ‘particulars’ of words spoken at a given time and in a specific context. This social function is closely connected to the centrality of memory in the early Greek world, oath-taking and the psychodynamics of orality, as evidenced by invocations to the Gods in the Homeric poems as well as later uses of the word in the context of oaths and solemn vows.

Published: October 2018

Alien species may adversely affect not only human health, agriculture, and fisheries but also the native ecosystem. Pomacea canaliculata is one of alien harmful species (IUCN). Forest residues are a kind of renewable, cheap and secure source of primary energy. Nandina domestica Thunb. is a commonly and widely cultivated plant for city landscape construction in China. After being pruned, a large of N. domestica leaves are usually abandoned. In this work, extracts of ethanol Soxhlet (SE), ethanol immerse (EE), and water immerse (WE) were obtained from leaves of N. domestica Thunb. cv. Firepower. The molluscicidal effects of the three extracts from the leaves were evaluated against black P. canaliculata. In sand pot culture condition and pot culture with paddy soil condition, SE at concentration of 4000 mg L-1 did not affect seedlings normal growth. Plant height, seedling fresh weight (SFW), seedling dry weight (SDW) and Chlorophyll content of SE (4000 mg L-1) were not significantly different from that in DS (distilled water + seedlings). Besides, in pot culture with paddy soil condition, the SE treatment at concentration of 4000 mg L-1 inhibited P. canaliculata chewing rice seedlings effectively, which was not statistically different from the positive control {NSP, niclosamide (according to field dosage, 0.086 g m-2 ) + seedlings + P. canaliculata)}. Results from this study indicated that SE has molluscicidal effect against P. canaliculata and SE did not affect the normal growth of rice seedlings. Thus, we suggest further chemical and toxicological studies of SE.

Sequential extraction or chemical fractionation of heavy metals allows inferences to be made about their origin, occurrence, bioavailability, toxic potential and environmental contamination. Thus, the present study aimed to assess the distribution of Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn among the different soil fractions and landscape compartments of a yellow latosol cultivated with vegetables. Soil samples were collected from five areas cultivated with tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum, Mill.), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), chili pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) and chard (Beta vulgaris L.) in different slope positions (upper, middle, lower), and four reference areas (native forest), at a depth of 0.00 - 0.20 m. Heavy metal levels were also assessed in water used to irrigate the crops and for human consumption by collecting 200 ml of water samples from reservoirs. The soil samples were sequentially fractionated to quantify the concentrations of adsorbed Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn in the exchangeable (EF), organic matter (OF), amorphous and crystalline iron oxide fractions (AFeOx and CFeOx). Landscape position only interfered significantly in heavy metal adsorption in the soil for Cu and Ni associated with CFeOx and Zn bound to the EF in the farming areas. The highest Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn levels were found in the fractions with less stable chemical bonds (bound to organic matter), in addition to a strong affinity between Cu, Zn and Mn and the oxide fractions (AFeOx + CFeOx). The low affinity of Pb and Ni for the AFeOx and CFeOx fractions indicates greater contamination potential for the water reservoirs. In the short term, organic matter is the main source of remediation for heavy metal contamination in soil, making it important to adopt conservation practices aimed at reducing OM losses.

This study evaluated the microbiological quality of milk and Coalho cheese, the prevalence of enterotoxin genes, antimicrobial resistance and determined an inducible MLSB resistance phenotype by the D-test in strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from these products. Seventy samples of milk and Coalho cheese were analyzed. S. aureus strains were identified by biochemical tests. The presence of se genes (sea-see) was tested by polymerase chain reaction. The antimicrobial sensitivity of S. aureus strains was evaluated for 13 antimicrobial drugs using the disk diffusion technique and the double-disk diffusion test (D-test) was performed to determine inducible resistance to lincosamide phenotype. The amount of toxin sufficient to cause foodborne diseases is generally observed when Staphylococcus populations exceed 105 CFU mL-1 g-1. In this study, none of the milk samples analyzed showed these counts; however, 73.3% (22/30) of Coalho cheese samples exceeded this value. A total of 109 isolates were identified as S. aureus. The presence of enterotoxin genes was detected in 25.7% of these isolates and amplified only for the sec gene. Most of the isolates (78.5%) were resistant to one or more antimicrobial agents. The D test showed that 25.0% of erythromycin-resistant isolates had the constitutive resistance phenotype, and 3.8% had the inducible resistance phenotype to clindamycin. These results indicate that these dairy products represent a health risk since these bacteria can cause foodborne diseases or may be a possible route for the transfer of antimicrobial resistance to humans.

This study evaluated the activity of the ethanolic extract of pequi peel (EEPP) and immunostaining with matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 (MMP2 and MMP9), and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 and 2 (TIMP1 and TIMP2) in the myocardium of rats subjected to acute cardiotoxicity using doxorubicin (DOX). Thirty Wistar rats (six groups of five animals) were used as follows: sham group (SG), water and saline; group G1, 16 mg/kg of DOX and 300 mg/kg of EEPP for 17 days; group G2, 16 mg/kg of DOX and 600 mg/kg of EEPP for 17 days; group G3, 16 mg/kg of DOX and 300 mg/kg of EEPP for 10 days; group G4, 16 mg/kg of DOX and 600 mg/kg of EEPP for 10 days; and control group (CG), 16 mg/kg of DOX. Three days after administering DOX (day 17), euthanasia was performed, and samples were collected for anatomopathological analysis. Myocyte vacuolar degeneration, cardiomyocyte disorganization and myofibrillar fragmentation, necrosis, mononuclear inflammatory infiltrate, Anitschkow cells, fibrosis, congestion, and edema were observed in the hearts of DOX recipients. In G1 and G2, EEPP attenuated myocyte vacuolar degeneration whereas in G4, EEPP attenuated cardiomyocyte disorganization. The percentage of cells immunoreactive for TIMP1 was higher in G1. It was concluded that EEPP minimizes the deleterious effects of DOX on rat myocardium. Doses of 300 and 600 mg/kg for 17 days attenuate the vacuolar degeneration of myocytes. The dose of 600 mg/kg for 10 days reduced cardiomyocyte disorganization, and the dose of 300 mg/kg for 17 days increased TIMP1 expression in the myocardium of DOX-treated rats.

Mesenchymal stem cells are a population of somatic cells found in several tissues of an adult organism, including adipose tissue. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause cellular alterations, including mutagenesis and genomic instability and the development of diseases. Thus, it is important to understand ROS-induced damage to cell macromolecules such as DNA, proteins, and lipids. In this study, we investigated oxidative stress rates and viability of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) from the greater omentum of rabbits. Cell cultures were analyzed at different passages (1-5) using the dichlorofluorescein acetate assay for measuring ROS production and cell viability tests. ROS levels were highest at passage 2 and cell viability was highest at passage 4.

This study evaluated the effect of Amburana cearensis extract as a preservation or culture medium for ovine ovarian tissue. Ovarian fragments were fixed in 4% buffered formaldehyde for 18 h (fresh control), stored in Minimal Essential Medium (MEM) or in A. cearensis extract (0.1; 0.2 or 0.4 mg/mL) at a temperature of 4ºC for 6, 12 or 24 h (preservation - experiment 1) or cultured for 7 days in ?-MEM+ or in A. cearensis extract without (0.1; 0.2 or 0.4 mg/mL) or with supplements (0.1+ ; 0.2+ or 0.4+ mg/ mL; experiment 2). The percentages of morphologically normal follicles and follicular activation were submitted to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey´s test. The values of TUNEL-positive cells were submitted to Chi-square test (P < 0.05). The storage of fragments for 6 h in MEM showed higher percentages of normal follicles (62%) and a lower rate of TUNEL positive cells (36.17%) compared to other treatments (normal follicles: 46%; 43% and 52%; TUNEL positive cells: 58.57%; 55.30% and 55.63% for Amb 0.1; Amb 0.2 and Amb 0.4 mg/mL, respectively). However, after 12 or 24 h, MEM (12 h: 48%; 24 h: 45%) and Amb 0.2 mg/mL (12 h: 37%; 24 h: 39%) showed similar percentages of normal follicles and TUNEL positive cells (MEM - 12 h: 43.26%; 24 h: 58%; Amb 0.2 mg/mL - 12 h: 50%; 24 h: 61%). After culture, ?-MEM+ recorded a higher percentage of normal follicles (58.25%) than A. cearensis treatments (32.8%; 25.4% and 34.2% for Amb 0.1; Amb 0.2 and Amb 0.4 mg/mL, and 22.25%; 20.0% and 36.6% for Amb 0.1+ ; Amb 0.2+ and Amb 0.4+ mg/mL, respectively) (P < 0.05). Follicular activation increased in all treatments (52.5%; 36.73%; 54.05%; 47.5% and 58.19% for ?-MEM+ ; Amb 0.1; Amb 0.1+ ; Amb 0.2+ and Amb 0.4+ mg/mL, respectively) compared to the fresh control (11.65%), except for Amb 0.2 mg/mL (23.69%) and Amb 0.4 mg/mL (28.85%) (P > 0.05). Moreover, after in vitro culture, A. cearensis at a concentration of 0.1 mg/mL maintained the percentage of TUNEL positive cells (30.0%) in a way that is similar to that observed in the fresh control (22%) (P > 0.05). In conclusion, ovine preantral follicles can be preserved at 4°C in MEM for 6 h. For longer periods of preservation (24 h), MEM and 0.2 mg/mL A. cearensis are recommended. Moreover, after in vitro culture, A. cearensis extract (0.1 mg/mL) showed higher activation and lower DNA fragmentation in ovine preantral follicles.

Published: October 2018

Bovine genital campylobacteriosis (BGC) and bovine genital trichomonosis (BGT) are globally widespread, predominantly sexually transmitted diseases that mainly affect herds in which natural mating takes place. Bulls serve as good epidemiological indicators for studying the causative agents of these diseases in cattle herds. The objective of the present work was to determine the prevalence of BGC and BGT among bulls sent to slaughterhouses in southern Minas Gerais, Brazil. Samples of preputial smegma from 200 sexually mature, non-castrated bulls of several ancestries were collected in 2013 from four regional slaughterhouses. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was employed to detect Tritrichomonas foetus, Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus, and C. fetus subsp. venerealis. Isolation also was used aiming to diagnosis of BGT. All smegma samples were negative in culture for T. foetus. Molecular tests revealed 8% (16/200) of animals to be positive for T. foetus, 17.5% (35/200) for Campylobacter. fetus subsp. fetus, and 13.5% (27/200) for C. fetus subsp. venerealis. The results of the present study indicate that T. foetus, C. fetus subsp. venerealis, and C. fetus subsp. fetus are present among bulls slaughtered in southern Minas Gerais, and that BGC and BGT occur in this region. These diseases therefore need to be considered during differential diagnosis of reproductive diseases affecting cattle herds in which natural mating is employed.

Published: October 2018

The objective was to evaluate the production and efficiency of 24-month-old Red Angus primiparous cows of different weights at weaning and repetition of pregnancy. Before calving, the females were managed in natural prairies and fed sweet clover (Lotus corniculatus) and ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.), with loads of 315 and 501 kg ha-1, respectively. Females were divided into groups according to the average birth weight into light 346.15 ± 3.39 kg; moderate 381.95 ± 2.99 kg; and heavy 412.63 ± 3.33 kg weights. The indicators evaluated were: primiparous weights and body conditions at calving and weaning, daily average and total gains, fixed-time artificial insemination (FTAI), and accumulation. Calves at birth and weaning had their daily average and total weights evaluated. In terms of production, the daily average and total gains per pair and effective herd production (EHP) of the weight groups were measured. At weaning, morphometric measures, viz. croup height and thoracic perimeter had a linear relationship increasing with the weight at calving. In FTAI and cumulative pregnancy, the groups of light and moderate cows were more efficient than the heavy group cows, with values of 81.25%, 75.00%, and 55.56%, respectively. The EHP differed between the groups with values of 37.07 ± 1.71, 28.13 ± 1.50, and 19.99 ± 1.68 kg, for light, moderate, and heavy, respectively. Light cows were 31.8% and 85.4% higher in effective production than moderate and heavy cows, respectively. Knowledge of the production system is important for enhancing breeding efficiency. The improvement in productive performance is related to the adequacy of metrices used in the production system.

The aim of this study was to determine the requirement for lysine in the diet of juvenile tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum). In total, 750 juvenile fish (0.34 ± 0.02g) were distributed in tanks arranged in a randomized block design with six treatments, five replications in two blocks, and 25 fish per unit, for 50 d. Six levels of digestible lysine were tested (1.30, 1.48, 1.66, 1.84, 2.02, and 2.20%), in formulated diets based on the ideal protein concept. The performance, feed efficiency, daily deposition of protein and body fat, and nitrogen retention efficiency of the fish were evaluated. The consumption of rations and protein, specific growth rate, body composition, and deposition of body fat were not influenced by the lysine levels tested. The consumption of digestible lysine increased linearly and the efficiency of digestible lysine for weight gain decreased linearly with the increase in lysine levels. The levels of digestible lysine that optimized weight gain and body protein deposition were estimated at 1.73 and 1.78%, respectively. The feed conversion and nitrogen retention efficiency were most improved at 1.66% and 1.84%, respectively. The recommended level of dietary lysine for providing better weight gain and body protein deposition in juvenile tambaqui is 1.78%, equivalent to 2.00% total lysine.

Aim of this survey was to reveal the feasibility to develop the Community (Village level) based breeding program in Khovd province. Erdeneburen sum was selected due to the most affected area with the degradation of pasture in this province (Report of Green Gold Project, 2015), where 34 goat herders were interviewed from 4 bags. According to the educational level of herders, the larger proportion of the respondents had lower secondary (56%) and higher level. The remaining 11.7% of them were finished the primary school. This result revealed that the herders were very knowledgeable, so that potential opportunity seen for the recording of goats by them. Total of 150; 50 bucks, 3 castrated males and 97 female goats were used for the baseline survey of quantitative and qualitative traits. In the studied flocks, the large proportions of goats were red (59%) and black (67%) , but white , grey and combination with other colours were few or 4, 4.7, 7.3% respectively, all observed goats had short coarse hairs and with short spiry horns. Sex and age strongly influenced (P<0.001) body weight, other linear body measurements and cashmere fineness. Chest girth has high correlation to cashmere yield and cashmere fineness. There was a strict seasonal mating with control and avoidance of inbreeding by keeping bucks in the same flock for 2 years and practiced the buying bucks from east and north regions. Therefore, the genetic structure of goats should be clarified at first, then appropriate breeding program need to be designed in this sum.

Land right registration and cadastre have been limited to develop cadastral registration systems in Mongolia. It is related to a lack of cooperation among state organizations that are five major organization conducting in land and property registration, and non-unified system of data exchange, capturing, control and monitoring in the land registration system in Mongolia. The five state organizations have different land right registration and the cadastral database to record land right and property using the distinct software. But also essential information to register land right is insufficient the database of land right, and have not recorded the database. The results indicated that the parcel number and numbering system is four different types in one organization for the land right registration system.

The Sakha people (Yakuts) made an invaluable contribution to the world civilization, not only preserving the heritage of steppe culture in the North and the Arctic, but also developing new strategies of Northern horse breeding, adapted to extreme natural and climatic conditions. With the development of the vast Northern expanses of the Yakuts the Arctic space have become an oasis of horse breeding herd, breeding place Yakut horse breed, and it is this "horse" world today gives Yakutia its uniqueness. As noted by the participants of the First International Congress (September 4-7, 2006, Yakutsk) "Sustainable development of head horse breeding" from Japan, France, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Russia, the horse has played a major role in the development of human civilization. The experience and knowledge gained over many centuries by the peoples engaged in horse breeding are the national heritage of the peoples, the priceless wealth of the modern world. It’s the great importance in the development of culture and art, the migration of nomads in search for new lands and the birth of new ethnic groups. Many traditions, customs and rites, associated with special reverence for the horse, have formed a kind of religious ideology, which is still active today.
Tectonic evolution of the southern part of Central Viet Nam and the adjacent area
Authors: Phach Phung Van , Anh Le Duc
Published: October 2018

Interpretations of seismic, gravity and magnetic anomalies and structural data on the coastal zone of southern part of Central Viet Nam (SCVN) and the adjacent Tertiary basins suggest several phases in the tectonic evolution of the study region since the Late Cretaceous to Quaternary. In this paper, we try to clarify the tectonic evolution of SCVN and the adjacent continental margin. The Cretaceous – Paleocene tectonic phase commenced after cessation of the West Pacific plutonic magmatic activity that produced numerous diabases and aplite dykes of mainly sub-meridian orientation. It was characterized by N–S compression and E–W extension. The geomorphology and geology ofSE Asiawere considerably changed during the Neotectonic phases caused by collision between the Indian plate and the Eurasian continent. Two tectonic phases – Early and Late Neotectonic – are separated by a regional unconformity represented by a boundary surface between below strongly deformed strata (synrift) and above less deformed formations (post-rift). The Early Neotectonic phase was related to the left-lateral movement of the Red River Fault Zone (RRFZ) and includes two tectonic sub-phases: Eocene – Oligocene (NW–SE compression), and Oligocene – Miocene (E–W compression). Activity in the Oligocene-Miocene sub-phase gave birth to rift basins in the continental margin of the SCVN. The Late Neotectonic phase began since the RRFZ stopped left-lateral movement and the East Viet Nam (orSouth China) Sea stopped spreading. The Late Neotectonic phase is also divided into two tectonic sub-phases: Late Early Miocene (sub-meridian compression), and Late Miocene – Pliocene (NE–SW compression). The Late Miocene – Pliocene sub-phase is characterized by vertical movements that caused episodic uplifting of the onland terrains, and subsidence of the offshore Phu Khanh basin. Besides, Miocene – Pliocene-Quarternary basaltic eruptions were widespread all over the southern Indosinian terrain and the continental margin.
Reimagining Zionism and Coexistence after Oslo’s Death
Authors: Graubart Jonathan ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: October 2018

Zionism needs a fundamental overhaul given both the collapse of the Oslo-initiated peace process and the erosion of liberal values in Israeli society. There is no better guide than Hannah Arendt for such an undertaking. On the one hand, she provided a searing diagnosis of mainstream Zionism’s foundational shortcomings, which persist to the present. One is a creed that assumes an eternal anti-Semitism. Two is a corresponding insular nationalism, which rejects affirmative engagement with the outside. On the other hand, Arendt articulated an affirmative humanist Zionism based on three elements. First, is a Jewish self-determination aimed at cultural enrichment and emancipation. Second, is an outward-oriented Zionism that embraces internationalism. Third, is substantive coexistence with Palestinians based on an innovative alternative to the homogenous nation-state model. This article retrieves and updates Arendt’s humanist Zionism. I emphasize her plea to confront Zionism’s pathologies, break from an insular nationalist mindset, and foster new political channels for attaining genuine reconciliation between Israelis and Palestinians.
On the status quo of Alexander Truslit’s tutorial of musical movement
Authors: Brandner Hans
Published: October 2018

In his practical tutorial Alexander Truslit tries to make a holistic sensation of musical expressiveness accessible through physiologically grounded motion patterns. His ideas about the connectedness of music and motion are being increasingly addressed in music psychology and music pedagogy. The article reflects Truslit's approach and suggests new connections that argue the case for his teachings and their solid foundation.
PRESENCE OF INDUSTRY 4.0 ON ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING: TECHNOLOGICAL TRENDS ANALYSIS
Authors: RODRIGUEZ SALVADOR MARISELA , MANCILLA DE LA CRUZ JESSICA
Published: October 2018

Industry 4.0 is an initiative aimed to achieve intelligent factories with advantages such as autonomy and real time response since it integrates internet-based technologies. It is part of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, that is estimated to produce a big transformation from personal to industrial domains. On the other hand, additive manufacturing involves a layer by layer production method that allows fabrication of complex and customized products and also presents a revolutionary impact. Industry 4.0 and additive manufacturing exhibit highly accelerated changes; therefore, it is relevant to identify advances that emerge, but in both areas rather than individually. For this reason, a Competitive Technology Intelligence analysis was carried out, which was based on patents of additive manufacturing in the context of Industry 4.0. The purpose was to identify trends in technological inventions. Insights indicate that so far, the incursion of the Industry 4.0 in additive manufacturing is still incipient, so the number of patents is reduced. Nevertheless, the results exhibit three core areas: intelligent manufacturing, the internet of things, and cloud manufacturing. Most inventions correspond to control methods and their devices, enabling additive manufacturing with greater autonomy and networking. Patents mainly come from China and USA. In terms of patenting activity, the principal organizations are Zhang Ping (China), Intel Corp (USA), Shenzhen Naishidi (China) and Hewlett Packard (USA). The results show that both additive manufacturing and Industry 4.0 are evolving fast with greater growth in number of patents as of 2015. Therefore, it is expected increased digitalization of additive manufacturing in the future.

Keywords: additive manufacturing, industry 4.0, patent analysis, technology trends.
Expérience et normativité : penser les modalités éducatives des projets
artistiques à partir de John Dewey
Authors: Fabre Sylvain
Published: October 2018

La question examinée porte sur la nature et les règles de la gouvernance
moderne. Il s'acquitte d'abord de clarifier le sens des termes fondamentaux. Le
concept de modernité est ainsi décrit comme ayant pour corollaire celui de progrès ;
et la gouvernance apparaît comme une manière nouvelle de nommer le gouvernement, au
sens où ce terme désigne l’administration de la puissance publique ou de la
souveraine puissance (MONTESQUIEU, ROUSSEAU). La gouvernance moderne ne renvoie donc
à rien d’autre qu’à l’administration de la volonté générale, par opposition à la
gouvernance archaïque, gouvernement monarchisant et de tendance despotique. Il
s’ensuit que la république est, par excellence, la forme moderne de l’État : les
droits de la critique étant consacrés (KANT), le gouvernant est déchu de son statut
traditionnel de souverain, dignité à laquelle est désormais élevé le peuple. Mais
comment une « gouvernance moderne » est-elle possible en Afrique dans l’actuel
contexte géopolitique de la mondialisation ? Il est suggéré que seule une Afrique
industrialisée et unie peut acculer à un « contrat international » équitable,
analogue amphictyonique du « contrat social ».

Traduire un au-delà en un déjà-là
Authors: Labrecque Simon
Published: October 2018

Cet article interprète le succès des écrits de Jacques Rancière dans le champ de la théorie politique en travaillant les notions de voix théorique et d’emprise charismatique. En reprenant à Jean-Luc Évard la problématisation du charisme comme effet d’une traduction d’un au-delà en un déjà-là, il devient possible de lire les interventions de Rancière comme des redescriptions captivantes de l’égalité des intelligences. La formulation de l’égalité comme point de départ plutôt que comme fin politique est également sensible dans la voix parlée de Rancière et c’est cette séduisante traduction conceptuelle que ses traducteurs anglophones cherchent à rendre dans leur langue.
Dead ringers de Cronenberg, ou la gémellité monstreuse
Authors: Girval-Pallota Julien
Published: October 2018

Dead ringers, ou dans son titre français Faux semblants, est le treizième
long-métrage de David Cronenberg, cinéaste canadien qui a jusque-là essentiellement
œuvré dans les genres de l’horreur et du fantastique. S’il fallait isoler un thème
récurrent dans son œuvre, ce serait sans doute la question du corps, et plus
précisément de ses transformations, de ses métamorphoses. Dans ce long-métrage,
Cronenberg, en mettant en scène la vie de deux frères jumeaux gynécologues, poursuit
son interrogation sur le corps à travers la question de la gémellité : jusqu’à quel
point un même esprit peut-il habiter deux corps ? C’est donc la question du double
qui est traitée par ce film : le double compris comme un autre soi, ou autrement dit
comme une parfaite duplication de soi. D’ailleurs l’expression dead ringer1 qui
donne son titre au film signifie « An exact duplicate », c'est-à-dire « un double
parfait », ou « une exacte duplication ». Le film nous pose la question de savoir
jusqu’à quel point on peut vraiment adhérer à cette idée : jusqu’à quel point
l’autre peut-il n’être que le même dupliqué ? jusqu’à quel point l’autre peut-il
n’être que l’identique redoublé ?
Clinique de l’Image : Schizophrénie et Paranoïa
Authors: Bilheran Ariane
Published: October 2018

Composée à la manière d’un diptyque hybride théorique et plastique, cet article
se compose ainsi en diptyque, en deux phases. D’abord un volet théorique où je
souligne la notion d’improvisation, d’expérimentation dans les pratiques artistiques
immersives contemporaines. Ensuite un second volet, plastique, où j'utilise les
images d'un vidéo-haïku qui reflète de façon sonore et visuelle les problématiques
soulevées dans la partie théorique, à savoir ce sentiment de mobilité comme
expérimentation du réel, l’utilisation directe du mouvement, du sens kinesthésique
dans les pratiques artistiques contemporaines, et non pas son illustration
allégorique, sa représentation.
Grandeur d’âme et désagrégation du moi
Authors: Aberkane Idriss
Published: October 2018

À travers un paysage culturel populaire où les scènes d’action entraînent le
spectateur dans la conscience de sa petitesse d’âme, nous suivons dans Kill Bill
(vol. 2) le personnage de La Mariée (Uma Thurman), de son passé avec Bill (David
Carradine) à son retour à la vie. En deux mots, Kill Bill amène une double
conscience du dédoublement : à l’écran (celui des personnages) et en dehors (celui
des spectateurs). Autour de cette représentation du dédoublement, nous voudrions
étudier le thème de la grandeur d’âme face à son antithèse : la désagrégation du
moi. Nous recourrons à la technique de l’intelligence pour relier de grands auteurs
parmi les modernes comme Yeats, Eliot, Perse, Pirandello et avant eux Poe et Burton
dans la continuité des Humanités occidentales. En particulier Poe et Burton,
décisivement influencés par le soufisme, nous fournissent un lien entre expression
de l’âme en Occident et spiritualité d’Orient.
De la domination linguistique
:
A propos de l’ouvrage Les Paradoxes de la domination linguistique, de Romain Colonna
Authors: Viangalli François
Published: October 2018

Dans cet ouvrage, l’auteur propose une analyse originale de la notion de domination
linguistique. Partant du concept classique de diglossie, tel qu’il a été forgé par les
linguistes Charles Fergusson et Joshua Fishman, il en suggère le dépassement en démontrant
la prépondérance de la domination psychologique dans l’esprit du locuteur minoritaire,
condamné à un fonctionnement diglossique qui n’est pas dans la langue, mais bien dans son
esprit, enraciné profondément par le rapport de force politique qui cerne la langue.
Procédant à un diagnostic affiné de l’état possible des langues dominées, sur la base
notamment de leur représentation sociale, de leur place réelle et de leur niveau de
reconnaissance juridique, il conclut à la nécessité pour sortir de la domination de mettre
en œuvre un programme ajusté à la situation de la langue considérée.
Specialty-oriented internships
Authors: Opipari Michael I.
Published: October 2018

The osteopathic medical rotating internship for many years represented the culmination of the making of an osteopathic physician. The rotating internship has been singularly responsible, in many instances, for our representation as the primary care profession. As recently as 12 years ago, the majority of DOs entered practice directly from the rotating internship. This I-year exposure from classroom to practice was a trip through a required minimum of five clinical specialties with some typical exposure to radiology, pathology, and anesthesiology. The author proposes a specialty track program as part of a restructured internship.
Granulomatous lymphadenitis caused by Coccidioides immitis
Authors: Robinson Mary Jo , Fogel Robert
Published: October 2018

The dimorphic fungus Coccidioides immitis is endemic to regions of the southwestern United States, Mexico, and Central America. The mycelial form is highly infectious and is carried in dust, which is inhaled. The lung is primarily affected. The disease caused by this organism ranges from an asymptomatic form to the disseminated or progressive type. Diagnosis hinges on identification of fungal infection by means of biopsy, culture, serology, or skin testing. Each method has advantages and pitfalls. This report discusses a case of granulomatous lymphadenitis caused by C immitis which was diagnosed in the eastern United States by means of a lymph node biopsy.
Modulating factors of the abundance and distribution of Achelous spinimanus (Latreille, 1819) (Decapoda, Portunoidea), a fishery resource, in Southeastern Brazil
Authors: Sousa Aline Nonato de , Bertini Giovana , Taddei Fabiano Gazzi , da Costa Rogério Caetano , Silva Thiago Elias da , Fransozo Adilson
Published: October 2018

This is the first study to examine how different environmental factors may influence the distribution of swimming crab Achelous spinimanus across geographically distant and distinct habitats. We analyzed the influence of bottom water temperature and salinity, sediment texture and organic matter content on the spatiotemporal distribution of A. spinimanus. The crabs were collected from January 1998 until December 1999 by trawling with a shrimp fishing boat outfitted with double-rig nets. The sampling took place in Ubatumirim (UBM), Ubatuba (UBA) and Mar Virado (MV) bays, located in the northern coast of São Paulo State (Brazil). These three bays were chosen as they differed in many physiographic features. We captured 1,911 crabs (UBM = 351; UBA = 1,509; MV = 51), and there were significant differences in abundance between bays and between stations. The distribution of A. spinimanus was primarily associated with sediment features: abundance was higher in stations with sandy sediments classified as gravel, very coarse sand, and intermediate sand. Portunoidea usually burrow in the sediment for protection against predators and to facilitate the capture of fast prey. In addition, the station with the highest abundance of A. spinimanus was also naturally protected from fishing activities, and composed of heterogeneous sediment, in terms of grain size. Hence, the combination of a favorable sediment heterogeneity and protection from fishery activities seemed to be effective modulators of the abundance and distribution of A. spinimanus in these bays.
Audiences for Journalism
Authors: Meijer Irene Costera , Kormelink Tim Groot
Published: October 2018

This entry provides an overview of the relationship between audiences and journalism. Although traditionally, practitioners and journalism scholars have largely neglected audiences, digitalization has enabled and necessitated taking the audiences of journalism seriously. As advertisement revenues continue to decrease, news organizations are increasingly dependent on their audiences for survival. Scholarly interest in audiences has been stimulated by the proliferation of available options for news use.
Gender Issues in News Coverage
Authors: Geertsema‐Sligh Margaretha
Published: October 2018

This entry discusses the participation and representation of women in the news media. Women entered journalism primarily to appeal to female audiences in the nineteenth century and were expected to write about topics considered to be of interest for women, such as food, fashion, family and furniture. Today, global studies show that women remain underrepresented at all levels of news organizations, with a glass ceiling preventing women from rising to top positions. Female journalists are especially facing challenges in war reporting and sports reporting, and as opinion columnists. In terms of representation, women are frequently represented in a negative or stereotypical light in the news media. Despite growing interest in the field, there is still a lack of information on these topics outside Western countries. Future studies should look at gender and news coverage in nations where research is currently absent.
