Dynamique Urbaine et Litiges Fonciers à Toumodi (Centre-Sud de la Côte d’Ivoire)
Authors: Emmanuel Yedonougbo Brou , Jean-Aimé Assue Yao , Emile Koffi Brou
Published: September 2023

Depuis 2013, année de passage l'autoroute du Nord, la ville de Toumodi connaît une évolution remarquable, tant au niveau démographique que spatial. La ville s'étale sur tous les fronts, et phagocyte l’espace rural. Cette dynamique n'est pas sans conséquence sur l'occupation du sol. Cette étude vise à comprendre les effets de la dynamique urbaine sur le foncier. La methodologie  s’appuie sur une observation de terrain, des entretiens semi-structurés réalisés auprès des autorités administratives,  coutumières de la ville et sur  une enquête par questionnaire. Les résultats révèlent que cette dynamique urbaine se manifeste par une croissance rapide de la population en traînant les besoins en logements. Aussi, Toumodi connaît-elle une croissance rapide induite par une croissance spatiale alimentée par la nécessité de répondre aux besoins en logements d’une population en perpétuelle croissance. La dynamique ainsi observée est perceptible à travers la tâche urbaine qui est passée, de 372 ha en 1989 à 1337,67 ha en 2020, soit un taux d’accroissement  moyen  annuel 2,7%. La course effrénée pour une propriété foncière en vue d’y bâtir un logement, rime ici avec une importante spéculation qui est souvent source de litiges fonciers. Ces litiges sont plus fréquents dans les quartiers périphériques qui enregistrent 70% des plaintes, contre 25% dans les quartiers péricentraux et 5% les quartiers centraux. Dans un contexte de cohésion sociale prônée par les autorités locales, des mesures idoines doivent être prises afin de règlementer la transaction foncière en milieu urbain.

 

Since 2013, the town of Toumodi has experienced remarkable development, both demographically and spatially. The city spreads in all directions, covering up the rural area. This dynamics has a significant impact on land occupation. This paper therefore focuses on understanding the effects of urban dynamics on land. The methodology is based on field observation, semi-structured interviews with administrative, customary authorities of the city, and a questionnaire survey. The outcome shows that this urban dynamics is manifested through rapid population growth by increasing housing needs. Toumodi is experiencing rapid growth due to spatial growth of housing needs of the growing population. The dynamic observed is perceptible through the urban task that has shifted from 372 ha in 1989 to 1337,67 ha in 2020, which is an annual average growth rate of  2.7 %. The frantic race for land ownership in order to build a house aligns with a significant speculation, which is often a source of many land disputes. These disputes are more frequent in peripheral districts which record 70% of complaints, compared to 25% in pericentral districts and 5% in central districts. In a context of social cohesion advocated by the local authorities, appropriate measures must be taken in order to regulate land transactions in urban area.
Discourse Style of Nigerian Coup Plotters
Authors: Anyachonkeya Ngozi , Nwosu-Okoli Ifeoma
Published: September 2023

This paper focuses on investigating selected speeches of Nigerian coup plotters, with a view to ascertaining their discourse styles. The paper speculates that the broadcast idiolect revolves around propaganda, polemics, and discursive styles, including the fox, Tartuffe or tortoise style, where they intimidate their opponents and the civilian populace into submission. This paper, by its nature, involves both qualitative and quantitative kind of research as it relies heavily on observation and library research. The military class succeeded in intervention mission but failed abysmally in the thrust of salvation. Their selfish quest made them neocolonialists in military garb. This paper, therefore, argues that their dismal failure in political governance of their Motherland ends up leaving the masses much poorer and more disillusioned than they had been under the corrupt civilian government. The unmitigated disaster the military precipitated in political governance constrained Nigerian literary patriots to publish social satires – in all genres - amidst propaganda. This implies that they reprehensively indict the military villains and continuously call for a revolution from the disconsolate Nigerians.

Published: September 2023

This study was designed to assess the biophysical structure, traditional practices and water quality of Lake Tseny in northwest Madagascar. The lake was divided into five zones: the central zone and the littoral zones (east, north, west and south). Transects and direct observation were used to estimate submerged tree and vegetation cover. Information on local traditions was collected through interviews with key people and visits to sacred sites. Water quality was assessed during the rainy and dry seasons, 2017–2018. Samples were taken twice a day, in the early morning and evening, at randomly selected points at intervals of 400m. The aquatic vegetation covered over 75% of the lakeshore. Most of the submerged tree trunks were recorded along the western area. Five sacred sites associated with eight forms of traditional taboos to reduce the potential source of water pollution were recorded in and around the lake. The lake is bowl shaped. The water was warm (T° 25.3 - 35.6 °C), slightly alkaline (pH 7.1 - 8.5), well oxygenated (DO 4.63 - 9.6 mg/l ) and less mineralised (EC 71.70 - 122.40 µS/cm). We found a seasonal difference in water quality between the rainy and dry seasons. Results showed spatial variation in water quality between zones. A comparison of the mean values with water quality standards showed that Lake Tseny has good water conditions for domestic purposes and suitable habitats for aquatic fauna throughout the year. These preliminary results provide reference data on the lake's characteristics. Due to the increasing human activities in the area, regular monitoring of water quality and physical characteristics should be carried out.

Fish is an important source of animal protein in Africa and is used in the composition of several national dishes. This literature review examines fishing, aquaculture and fish reared in the whèdos of the upper Ouémé delta in Benin. It addresses socio-economic aspects, nutritional importance and traditional fish preservation technology. The sources of information used are publications, books, reports of dissertations and theses and technical notes. It was found that Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus, among others, are two species of fish most often raised in the whèdos of the Ouémé River in Benin. These fish adapt to large variations of ecological factors of the aquatic environment found everywhere in Africa and reproduce easily in captivity, which favors their breeding in ponds. These species present multiple fish farming qualities: resistance to high densities, resistance to diseases and low oxygen levels, easy adaptation to artificial feeding and high growth. Microbiological contamination of fish flesh occurs only after capture and can be endogenous or exogenous contamination. Generally, several processes are used to overcome this problem of contamination of fish. Hot smoking and drying are very often used. The lack of hygiene in the traditional technology of smoking fish sometimes favor a considerable microbial contamination of the obtained products. Thus, contaminated fish can be the cause of foodborne diseases such as food poisoning. Most of the pathogenic strains responsible for these diseases are resistant to certain antibiotics.

Published: September 2023

Dans le cadre d’associer les populations locales aux programmes de gestion de la biodiversité, une étude a été réalisée durant dix-neuf mois, entre 2010 et mars 2013, à partir des enquêtes ethnozoologiques auprès du peuple Gouro vivant à proximité du Parc National de la Marahoué, dans le centre ouest de la Côte d’Ivoire. Elle a porté sur les connaissances ornithologiques et les modes d’attribution des noms des oiseaux par ce peuple. Au total, 232 espèces d’oiseaux ont été identifiées avec chacune une appellation en langue Gouro. Ces appellations sont basées sur six critères distinctifs dont le plus important est le comportement de l’espèce. Ces résultats constituent le premier registre important des noms des oiseaux en langue Gouro, portant sur un grand nombre d’espèces d’oiseaux. Ils permettent de comprendre que les peuples indigènes sont très observateurs et détiennent des connaissances écologiques traditionnelles très utiles pour la conservation de la biodiversité.

 

As part of involving local populations in biodiversity management programs, a study was carried out over nineteen months, between 2010 and March 2013, based on ethnozoological surveys of the Gouro people living near the National Park of Marahoué, in the center west of Côte d'Ivoire. It focused on ornithological knowledge and the ways in which the names of birds are attributed by this people. A total of 232 bird species have been identified, each with a name in the Gouro language. These designations are based on six distinctive criteria, the most important of which is the behavior of the species. These results constitute the first significant register of bird names in the Gouro language, covering a large number of bird species.

Published: September 2023

The objective of the study was to create and implement an educational program with the aim of reducing children's anxiety at the dentist. The study began with the hypothesis that the implementation of an educational program can lead to a decrease in the level of dental anxiety among children. The sample included 196 children (experimental group of 95 children and control group of 101 children), primary school pupils. The educational program was structured in the form of twelve PowerPoint presentations, focusing on three essential themes. These were: the importance of oral hygiene, methods and techniques used for good oral hygiene and the role of nutrition in maintaining healthy teeth. The methods used were the questionnaire, PowerPoint presentations, semi-structured interviews, demonstrations and exercises. A questionnaire was applied and saliva was taken to determine immunoglobulin A, both at the beginning and at the end of the study. In the experimental group, there were statistically significant differences between the initial and final results of both the questionnaire and immunoglobulin A testing (p<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the control group (p>0.05). Following the interpretation of the results, the hypothesis was confirmed according to which the implementation of an educational program can lead to a decrease in the level of dental anxiety in children.

Climate change has emerged as a significant global environmental concern, prompting increased interest in utilizing trees as an alternative means to enhance human well-being and thermal comfort in urban settings. This study endeavors to assess the influence of street trees on the urban microclimate in tropical cities, employing a Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM) approach. The investigation was conducted in Cotonou, Porto-Novo, and Ouidah within Benin. Data collection was conducted along thoroughfares, where a systematic inventory was performed to measure various characteristics of each street tree. Meteorological data, encompassing air temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed, were recorded at three different heights thrice an hour from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Subsequently, these datasets were analyzed using GLMMs. A total of 1127 street trees belonging to 20 species and 13 families were identified. The Shannon Diversity Index and Pielou Equitability values ranged from 2.33 to 2.92 bits and 0.17 to 0.64, respectively. The GLMM analysis revealed that the presence of trees, daytime, and height significantly influenced air temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed. Street trees on both sides of roadways induced an air temperature decrease from -0.6°C to -1.4°C and an increase in relative humidity ranging from +2.5% to +5.2% between 11 am and 5 pm, as compared to other layouts. Furthermore, closed canopy patterns exhibited the most favorable outcomes, resulting in an air temperature decrease from -0.4°C to -1°C and an increase in relative humidity from +2.4% to +5.5% between 11 am and 5 pm.

Population Dynamics and Settlement Transformation of Russians in the Russian Federation in 1990–2010
Authors: Stetsenko Vladimir
Published: September 2023

This article compares national census data of 1989, 2002, and 2010 to offer a quantitative description of the distribution dynamics of the Russian people in 1989–2010 based on a classification of Russian regions by the share of Russians in their population and using the Eckel index. Research has found that in regions of the Russian Federation where Russians constitute the absolute or the relative majority, despite the ongoing process of depopulation of Russians, censuses indicate no decline in the share of Russians in the population. The article analyzes the reasons behind this fact. Having contrasted the magnitude of changes in the size of the population of Russians and other peoples of the region in the period concerned, the author concludes specific demographic factors, such as natural Russian population growth/decline as well as migration or assimilation processes, to prevail in the respective region. The author identifies the key regions that were the origin or the destination of migration of Russians in the period under consideration and examines the reasons for such migration. It is found that Russians migrated to such regions as Belgorod Oblast, Moscow, Kaliningrad Oblast, Krasnodarsky Krai, Tyumen Oblast. Among regions that saw a considerable migration outflow of Russians are several republics of the North Caucasus, the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Tuva, Koryak Okrug, as well as some regions of the Russian Arctic. A special focus is given to a trend that has been present in recent censuses, namely, the growing number of people who “did not specify their ethnicity”. If that trend persists, it will evidently lead to a distortion of the overall picture of the ethnic composition of Russia and its regions.

Published: September 2023

The article analyzes the transformation of the settlement system of Tyumen Region between censuses in the context of demographic processes and population migration. The paper reveals trends in the natural movement of population in the region, including natural increase, birth rate and mortality in the context of urban and rural settlements. The growth of population in large and medium-sized cities in the region and rural municipalities has been analyzed. We have also analyzed the absolute volumes of migration, as well as various forms of migration that are represented in the region. Their contribution to demographic and socio-economic processes has been determined. The results of the sociological survey have been used to analyze the migration patterns of the Tyumen Region population with regard to their departure from the region. It has been established that migration not only replenishes the population of the region, but also forms the structure of population with a high proportion of migrants. This is a prerequisite for a high level of migratory attitudes among the population of the region with a view to moving to other regions of the country or abroad. Highlighted features of the settlement network development in the Tyumen Region, characterized trends in the transformation of the settlement system and the framework of settlement pattern of the territory.
Socio-Demographic Aspects of Floods in the Russian Far East in 2013–2023
Authors: Mishchuk Svetlana
Published: September 2023

The article presents the results of a study of floods in the southern regions of the Russian Far East. The analysis is based on the search for options for flood prevention, as well as better management of the consequences of floods to improve the quality of life of the population. The data on damage from floods in the period from 2013 to 2023 in certain Far Eastern regions are analyzed. On the example of the 2021 flood, it is shown that protective measures in the Amur Region after the catastrophic flood of 2013 helped reduce damage. However, there is still a high probability of recurrence of floods. Floods lead to the loss of personal property of the population, damage to transport infrastructure, agriculture in the regions, which reduces the quality of life of the population in the Far Eastern regions. Based on open damage data for 2021, it is shown that higher flood damage per capita is observed in regions with lower population density. The natural and social aspects of floods are reflected in their causes and consequences. It is shown that the anthropogenic causes of floods are largely associated with the expansion of economic activity. Despite the wide range and volume of financial support for the regions, for the population, the total amount of compensation in case of damage cannot compensate for all their financial losses. One of the options for reducing damage is considered the possibility of developing a program for the resettlement of the population from areas located in the flood zone.

The article presents an overview of the collective scientific work revealing the features of the socio-demographic development of the region – the Demographic Report of the Republic of Bashkortostan. Based on official statistics and sociological research, the publication provides a comprehensive analysis of the processes of natural and migration movement of the population of the republic, examines some aspects of socio-economic development, as well as measures of regional social and demographic policy. The Demographic Report notes that the main trends of the Republic of Bashkortostan take place in the all-Russian context. These are the aging of the population, a decrease in the number of people of active working age; a decrease in the intensity of fertility, a decrease in the population of reproductive age, the dominance of reproductive attitudes towards childlessness; a change in the structure of mortality for reasons; transformation processes in the spheres of family and marriage (changes in value attitudes, marital behavior, etc.); centripetal, the nature of migration processes, high migration decline of young age groups. At the same time, the Demographic Report emphasizes that the general trends in the demographic development of Russia and Bashkortostan do not exclude that the processes of natural and migration movement of the population in the republic have their own specifics. This is due to the age, socio-territorial, ethnic structure of the population; the level of urbanization in the region; the existing system of urban and rural settlement; the peculiarities of socio-economic development of the republic and other factors. Socio-demographic indicators in Bashkortostan are also differentiated within the region, which is manifested at the sub-regional and municipal levels. The Demographic Report suggests measures in the areas of social and demographic policy. According to the authors, measures in the field of family and fertility, mortality and health, migration and employment should be closely interrelated and complement each other.

Authors: Pizarro Cynthia
Published: September 2023

The review of the Migration Atlas of the Russian Federation, prepared by a group of authors of the Institute for Demographic Research and the North Caucasus Federal University, analyzes the joint work of demographers, sociologists, geographers and cartographers of two scientific organizations. The authors analyze the historical and modern statistics of migration processes in the Russian Federation, its main directions, countries connected with the Russian Federation in migration channels, communities of Russian-speaking migrants formed abroad and their economic interaction. The authors pay considerable attention to several aspects that often dropped out of sight of researchers. Among them are the ethnic composition of migration processes, features of spatial settlement, processes of pendulum migration, the impact of migration infrastructure on the processes under study, features of international migration management.
New Demographic Three-Child Policy in China
Authors: Wang Ye
Published: September 2023

The article is devoted to the question of how ready the Chinese population is to accept the change in the goal of birth control and realize the pronatal possibilities of the new policy aimed at increasing the number of third children in the family. The relevance of a three-child family became apparent after the completion of several decades of mandatory one-child birth rate did not increase with the permission, and then with the encouragement of two-child. According to official statistics, information from publicly available sources in the media and the results of author surveys in 2018 and 2022 it is shown that the demographic reforms of 2016–2021 increased attention to the national specifics of the formation and implementation of reproductive intentions. Taking into account the experience of countries that have radically changed the vector of natal regulation, national socio-cultural and material factors contributing to the choice in favor of an increase in the number of children in the family, as well as the population groups most sensitive to pronatal measures are identified. In particular, the author’s survey of Chinese citizens who have been working abroad for several years revealed that with stable income in two-child families, the decision on a third child can be made if both children are of the same sex, and different-sex children are preferred. The prerequisites for positive prospects are the pronatal reorientation of financial, tax, insurance, labor, educational, and housing birth control measures that have proven effective during the mandatory one-child period. A new direction is the active and diverse promotion of large families, designed for categories of the population differentiated by the number of children, place of residence, income, etc. The Chinese feature is the explanatory work among the only children, many of whom do not want to share family property and parents’ attention with anyone. It is important to extend all measures to both urban and rural populations, which will allow considering the regional and demographic differentiation of the country.
Migration Processes in Austria: Features and Trends
Authors: Nadezhdin Alexander
Published: September 2023

The article deals with the current migration situation in the European Union with an emphasis on Austria. The article analyzes the key prerequisites and factors that caused demographic and social changes in Austrian society after World War II, contribute to the preservation of the migration attractiveness of the state at the current stage. The regulatory and legal instruments for regulating migration, including the stay and employment of foreign citizens, as well as the parameters of the functioning of integration mechanisms and ensuring national security against the background of the crisis events of 2015 are summarized. In the context of increasing external pressure on the European Union, Vienna's approaches to managing migration processes are analyzed, which are traditionally characterized by a tough position and often contrast with the official course of Brussels, especially with regard to the reception of refugees. Austrians, in order to prevent irregular cross–border movements of people and secondary migration, minimize threats to national security, actively interact with neighboring states and countries – migration donors. On the domestic political track, of particular interest is the situation associated with a new phenomenon – the mass arrival of Ukrainian refugees. This flow is qualitatively and quantitatively significantly different from traditional migration (gender, educational and social level, significant number of minors). Despite the rigidity of its migration policy, Austria is forced to quickly look for solutions to a complex of problems related to the accommodation and financing of the stay of immigrants from Ukraine, as well as to explain to its electorate the reasons for negative socio-economic changes in the conditions of the chosen foreign policy course. A side effect of providing broad social and legal guarantees to Ukrainians, along with a low level of integration into society, is the growing discontent of the titular population and migrants who arrived from other countries.
Migration in Central Asian Countries in the Context of EEU Integration and New International Realities
Authors: Delovarova Leila , Sultanmuratov Nuriddin
Published: September 2023

Integration processes in the Eurasian space are the result of the evolution and transformation of approaches to cooperation and rapprochement of the members of the association, including the convergence of the development of all “four freedoms” of the EEU (movement of goods, movement of services, movement of labor and movement of capital). The EEU is now the only effective economic integration association in Eurasia, and the migration component is one of the key aspects that influences the other three and increases the integration potential of Central Asian countries that are not members of the associations. This study is aimed at analyzing the integration potential of Central Asian countries through the prism of existing and possible migration effects. The study carried out an overview analysis of the potential of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, the possibility of Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan joining the EEU, with an emphasis on the potential and role of labor migration for these countries in the context of the EEU. The relevance of the study is due not only to the importance of economic integration processes in the Eurasian space through the prism of migration effects for Central Asia, but also in general in the context of gaining important experience, processes of unification and raising common standards throughout the Eurasian space, and in particular, in the migration field. The effects of labor migration within the EEU for Central Asia will not only be indicators of rapprochement and integration, but also the expansion of cooperation in general at the regional and interregional level. Such experience is also important for the EAEU, since it is important for the Union, along with expanding the list of economic partners, to develop new mechanisms for coordinating labor migration.
Bibliometric Analysis of Educational Emigration Studies
Authors: Kuznetsov Nikita
Published: September 2023

Educational emigration from Russia often remains out of focus of both researchers and government officials. Nevertheless, this is one of the channels that, on the one hand, causes the outflow of a young and promising population, and on the other, connects our country with the world's leading scientific and economic centers. This article aims to identify gaps in the study of educational migration from Russia through a structured review of the scientific literature. The subject of the research is the trends in the study of educational migration in Russian-language and English-language scientific literature. The study proves the lack of an integrated approach to the educational migration research in relation to the relatively new concept of “intellectual diaspora”. Using the bibliometric method in combination with content analysis of metadata of articles from the Scopus and RSCI bibliographic databases, the author concludes that despite the obvious connection of these concepts, only a few works consider educational migrants from the point of view of the formation of such diasporas. The article also formulates the need to build a conscious state diaspora policy aimed not only at stimulating re-emigration, but also at other forms of interaction with representatives of national intellectual communities abroad. The limitations of the work are the selected time frame (2017–2022) and the object of research (articles from two bibliographic databases), which allow us to draw conclusions on trends in the study of educational migration in the past five years and identify promising areas of research in this area.

In recent years, the phenomenon of educational migration has received considerable attention in scientific research, as more and more young people around the world seek educational opportunities abroad. This article examines the educational migration trends of youth from the Republic of the Union of Myanmar and the factors influencing their decision to study abroad. The sharp increase in the number of young Myanmar citizens seeking education in other countries can be explained by several factors, including limited educational opportunities within their own country, political instability and conflict, socio-economic considerations, the desire for international academic standards, as well as language barriers and inequality in education. Our research paper draws on various data sources, including academic research, government reports, migration statistics, and provides a comprehensive analysis of the latest trends in educational migration from the Republic of the Union of Myanmar. The paper examines the driving forces and motives that contribute to the decision of young Myanmar citizens to study abroad. The directions of migration and forms of education preferred by young migrants from this country are analyzed. Findings from this study may be of interest to educators and decision makers in both sending and receiving countries for international students to enhance educational opportunities and support the personal and professional development of young people.
Evolution of scientific research on fatherhood
Authors: Shevchenko Irina
Published: September 2023

This article analyses the transformation of scientific perspectives on fathers and fatherhood. The scientific study of issues related to fathers and fatherhood in developed foreign countries began in the mid-20th century and is associated with the proliferation of family institution problems: increasing divorces, remarriages, stepfamilies, consensual unions, and the rising birth rates of children born outside of marriage. In Russia, this issue began to attract researchers' attention in the 1990s, as similar trends were observed in our country. It was found that the decline in fathers' authority and their reduced contribution to child socialisation lead to problems within families and socio-psychological difficulties for their children.

During the 1970s and 1980s, it was discovered that a father's contribution to a child's development is irreplaceable because he serves as a role model for boys and as a future partner model for girls. Family work performed by both mothers and fathers complements each other.

Thus, the significance of fatherhood in terms of parent-child relationships and its contribution to a child's upbringing were emphasised. In foreign countries, social policies began to change to support fathers. From the 1990s to 2010s, researchers noted the spread of the so-called "new" or "involved" or "responsible" fatherhood, characterised by fathers' active involvement in child rearing from birth, a redistribution of labour responsibilities in favour of family duties, and a father's engagement in the daily affairs of the family. It was revealed that involved fathers have stronger and warmer relationships with their children. However, it is acknowledged that there are still not enough involved fathers.

During their research, scientists have come to the idea that paternal qualities are, on one hand, developed through the process of socialisation of future fathers, and on the other hand, there are natural, nature-inherent aspects of paternal behaviour. Paternal qualities are to a significant extent constructed by society based on the value orientations that are considered significant in that particular society during a specific historical period. Currently, the biosocial concept is the most common research approach to issues related to fathers and fatherhood.
