Popülizm, Liberal Demokrasi ve Faşizm Denklemi
Authors: ORHAN Salim
Published: April 2020

Popülizm kavramı, günümüzdeki siyasi analizlerin ve tartışmaların egemen kavramlarından biri haline gelmiştir. Coğrafi olarak dünyanın çeşitli bölgelerinde politik ve ideolojik açıdan birbirinden oldukça farklı –hatta karşıt– çizgilerde bulunan birçok siyasi hareketi ve aktörü tanımlama ve niteleme maksadıyla, çağdaş siyaset biliminin temel bir kavramı olan popülizm kavramına başvurulmaktadır. Ancak popülizmin kendisi müphem ve muğlak bir kavram olup henüz net ve evrensel bir tanıma sahip değildir. Belirsiz bir kavram olmasından dolayı popülizm, bir taraftan gerçek demokrasi diğer taraftan faşist diktatörlük şeklinde birbirine tamamen zıt siyasi pozisyonlar üzerinden tanımlanacak kadar geniş bir kullanıma sahiptir. Bu çalışma, popülizm kavramını incelemeyi ve bu kavramın iki zıt siyasi anlayış ve pozisyon olarak liberal demokrasi ve faşizm (faşist diktatörlük) ile ilişkisini tespit etmeyi amaçlamaktadır.
A Consideration on Legality of Border Barriers: The Principle of Non-refoulement and It’s Extra-territorial Effect
Authors: ÖZTURANLI Beyza , ERGÜVEN Nasıh Sarp
Published: April 2020

It is a common practice for states to build walls and similar structures on their borders primarily for security but also for a variety of reasons. The fact that the principle of non-refoulement as part of customary international law and regulated by the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees is deemed valid not only for those who gain the status of refugee but also for everyone who seeks asylum and that it is interpreted in a way to cover all kinds of deportation acts such as expulsion, return, transfer or rejection on the border for those who have a well-founded fear of being persecuted is a requirement of the developments in both international law and humanitarian law. Various border walls and fences completed by Balkan states with the purpose of preventing mass population movement arising from reasons such as civil wars, failed states, drought and climate change in different parts of the world and relevant activities bring into question of whether the principle of non-refoulement has an extra territorial effect or not. The border policies of states are the result of their sovereignty; however, current precautions taken within the framework of the protection of borders can result in the state’s violation of the obligations arising from international law.

Methane distribution in Holocene marine sediments in the Bornholm Basin, southern Scandinavia
Authors: Jensen Jørn Bo , Endler Rudolf
Published: April 2020

The Baltic Sea is an ideal natural laboratory to study the methane cycle in the framework of diagenetic processes. In this paper we present preliminary geological mapping results from project Baltic Gas, a research project with the overall aim to contribute to the development of a scientific basis for long term sustainable use and protection of the Baltic Sea ecosystem. The Baltic Sea is a marginal sea with a strong permanent haline stratification, which leads to oxygen-poor bottom waters, and which is sometimes interrupted by oxygen-rich saltwater flowing in from the North Sea. The history of the Baltic Sea has resulted in deposition of organic-rich Holocene marine sediments that overlie glacial, late-glacial and early Holocene organic-poor sediments.

The Cenozoic Song Hong and Beibuwan Basins, Vietnam
Authors: Fyhn Michael B.W. , Petersen Henrik I. , Nielsen Lars Henrik , Giang Tran C. , Nga Le H. , Hong Nguyen T.M. , Nguyen Nguyen D. , Abatzis Ioannis
Published: April 2020

The Vietnamese offshore margin holds a substantially underexplored petroleum potential. The key to unravelling this potential lies in understanding the tectono-stratigraphic framework of the region including the Cenozoic mechanisms governing syn-rift and source rock deposition. This is essential for prediction of, for instance the presence and nature of source rocks in South-East Asia and possible reservoir intervals in the syn-rift packages. The Vietnamese part of the Song Hong and Beibuwan Basins (Fig. 1) differs from other basins along the western margin of the South China Sea in that the Palaeogene syn-rift succession is sporadically exposed due to uplift and inversion. These exposures provide a unique glimpse into the Cenozoic syn-rift succession of the basin.

The Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) has for many years been involved with research, advisory and consultancy services concerning the assessment of the geothermal energy potential in Denmark, in close cooperation with private and public partners. The Survey’s particular responsibility has been the development of geological models to describe and predict the distribution of sandstone reservoirs suitable for geothermal exploitation. Danish geothermal resources in known sandstone aquifers are estimated to be sufficient to cover household heating requirements in Denmark for more than a century (Sørensen et al. 1998).
POST-SOVIET RUSSIA: RISKS OF “THE EPOCH OF NOSTALGIA
Authors: BAGDASARYAN Nadezhda , KOROL Marina
Published: April 2020

The article considers the state of socio cultural reality of post-Soviet Russia, which carried out transit from socialism to capitalism. Transformation of Russia into a new capitalist country of the post-communist bloc during the reforms of the1990s was associated with privatization, as a result of which there was a rapid stratification of society, income polarization, wrongfully impoverishment of the population and with massive downward mobility. Over the past quarter-century, a new stratification model has emerged. This model cannot be considered as a stable connection of social life subjects not only by age characteristics, experience of socialization, attitude to property, but also because this structure is due to the entire socio cultural state of the post-Soviet space. In society, the mood of idealization of the Soviet past is growing to find protective mechanisms against the uncertain future. The critical optics of the "epoch of nostalgia" concept, which is dedicated to the posthumously published work of the outstanding British sociologist Z. Bauman "Retropia," permits to light up the risks and threats of the mood of the idealization of the past. The past must be seen not as a frozen ideological construct, but as a continuum that can help to understand the origins of the social contexts of the present and the prospects of the future. Memory culture is also the policy of a state that works subtly with its historical past in the information field of mass consciousness: gross manipulation of it in modern society can produce unpredictable results.

Authors: OVODOVA Svetlana , CHUPIN Roman , TSATURYAN Anna
Published: April 2020

The article analyzes the urban discourse on the improvement of the city of Omsk. The results of a qualitative sociological study conducted with city activists are compared with the results of a survey of residents of Omsk aimed at identifying satisfaction with the improvement of the urban environment. The analysis found that the dominant type of urban discourse of urban activists is the discourse of creative urbanism (creating comfortable and beautiful public spaces), and the discourse of left-wing urbanism (improving the social environment) is less relevant. The results of the survey showed that the residents of the city of Omsk are also dominated by the discourse of creative urbanism, and the discourse of the left urbanism is weakly expressed. Both the urban community of activists and the residents of the city of Omsk absolutely did not show the discourse of high industrial urbanism associated with the development of industry in the region. The degree of satisfaction of Omsk city environment is determined. The actions of key discourse actors, determined by the request of communities to increase the degree of improvement of urban space, are characterized and systematized. The conclusions are formulated about the dominance of the stereotypical concept of urban improvement, which causes a discursive conflict and affects the request of citizens in relation to the quality of the urban environment.

INTEGRATION TENDENCIES UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF GLOBALIZATION TRANSFORMATIONS
Authors: Afanasyeva Irina , Uznarodov Dmitriy
Published: April 2020

At the turn of the XX—XXI centuries, transformation of the world economic system is determined by a complex of processes, among which globalization occurred as the basic trend of the world economy, despite the contradictory comprehension of its imperatives and consequences in the world economic space.

The current process of globalization is the result of increasing trends in polarization of the world architecture in terms of economic power and empowerment. This phase of the functional configuration of the world space causes the emergence of global problems and conflicts, predetermining the need for the economies of the world to cooperate closer and more openly on the design of the most effective mechanism for economic synthesis. Thus, the main line of today’s interaction of national economies at the global level is integration which is creating internal sources for economic growth and development.

In the context of the above, the authors consider that integration trends in the global community have been caused by the ongoing globalization trends. The specifics of such changes are presented on the example of the Asia-Pacific region. At the same time, the main directions of Russian geopolitics and its role in the formation of integration associations in the Asia-Pacific region are shown.

Spatiotemporal Identification of Moving Patterns on a Fingertip-based Electro-Tactile Display Array
Authors: Rahimi Mehdi , Jiang Fang , Shen Yantao
Published: April 2020

An electro-tactile display can be used to stimulate sensations in the skin. The ultimate achievement in this area is to open a new information communication channel using this sensory substitution system. One of the requirement of such communication channel is to deliver meaningful commands to the user. The sensations should be distinctive enough to be readily understandable for the operator.
This study is perusing the feasibility of generating identifiable moving patterns in the electro-tactile display. Then, the degree of identification performed by the users will be validated.

An electro-tactile display is built using an array of sixteen contacts to form a moving pattern by delivering electrical signal to the fingertip skin.
This signal can have varying voltages, frequencies or duty cycles to form the most comfortable sensation.
Moving patterns can be generated by individually or collectively toggling the electrical contacts on the electro-tactile display. This will achieve a stimulation of a moving pattern. In this regard, a moving pattern can be compared to a set of frame-by-frame pictures that construct a movie. Similarly, by toggling the contacts in a specific order, a moving pattern can be achieved.

In this study, eight subjects participated. A questionnaire was used to assess the sensation of the corresponding movement.
The results of these reports were analyzed and a conclusion regarding the identification of the direction of the movement was drawn. It became clear that the direction of the movement had a significant impact on the recognition of the patterns.

Furthermore, an analysis of the detection threshold (DT) voltage and current mapping was performed to evaluate the effect of the internal structure of the skin for each user on the assessment performance.
Based on the mapping results, it became clear that the DT voltage is vastly different for each contact and the resulting spatial map is also unique to each user.
Impact of Urbanizing Ovia-North East on the Quality of Groundwater using Water Quality Index
Authors: Rawlings A. , Ikediashi A. I.
Published: April 2020

Due to increasing population and industrialization in urban areas, the environment has become so vulnerable as a result of unhygienic practise by the populace (particularly in developing country). Thus, making groundwater to be more vulnerable to pollutants from the environment. In this study, groundwater samples were collected from twelve different boreholes (six domestic boreholes and six bakery boreholes) in Ovia North-East Local Government Areas and assessed for their suitability in domestic and industrial purposes. These samples were collected between September and October, 2019 (peak of rainy season). The samples were analysed for fourteen physiochemical parameters, namely: pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Turbidity, Bicarbonate (HCO3-), Chloride (Cl), Ammonium Nitrogen (NH4N), Total Hardness (TH), Temperature, Odour, Iron (Fe), Zinc (Zn), Lead (Pb) and Cadmium (Cd). All the laboratory analyses were conducted in accordance with the techniques described by American Public Health. Statistical analyses such as correlation matrix (Pearson’s Correlation) and water quality index (WQI) were used in this study. Results of physiochemical analysis revealed that of all the parameters examined, pH, Pb and Cd were not within acceptable limits. The correlation matrix indicated that TDS shows a highly positive correlation (0.99) between EC and NH4N respectively and also Temperature shows a highly negative correlation (0.80) between EC, TDS and NH4N respectively. The WQI indicated that the groundwater samples ranged from excellent to good indicating that the water is fit for drinking, domestic and industrial purpose. The physiochemical and correlation analyses revealed that the quality of groundwater in Ovia- North East LGA has slightly deteriorated and might be prone to contamination (by anthropogenic activities). Hence, it is recommended that there should be regular monitoring of the groundwater quality so as to sustain and improve the water quality and that the water should be treated before use.

Islands of Stability: new conception on the use of force regarding the implementation of protection of civilians
Authors: De Souza Graziene Carneiro
Published: April 2020

This article proposes that the normative context of the use of force is being modified by a new way to implement the Protection of Civilians (PoC). Resolution 2098 of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) created a Force Intervention Brigade (FIB) with an unprecedented mandate to implement the use of force preemptively. In this context, the objective of this paper is to evidence that the FIB’s offensive actions resulted in the emergence of the “Islands of Stability” concept, which represents a new method to implement the PoC. In order to elaborate this method, a review of literature, news papers and official documents was undertaken, as well as interviews with MONUSCO officials. Its outcome is a significant update, adaptation and evolution on the use of force in peace operations that aims to influence the general debate regarding military intervention and PoC. Key Words: Use of force, MONUSCO, FIB, Protection of Civilians, Islands of Stability.Resumo: Este artigo propõe que o contexto normativo sobre o uso da força está sendo modificado por uma nova forma de implementação da Protecção de Civis (PoC). A Resolução 2098 do Conselho de Segurança das Nações Unidas criou uma Força de Brigada de Intervenção (FIB) com mandato sem precedentes para implementar o uso da força preventivamente. As ações ofensivas da FIB resultaram na emergência do conceito de Ilhas de Estabilidade, apresentando novo processo da operacionalização da PoC. Isso significa nova atualização, adaptação e evolução do uso da força em operações de paz; e, portanto, influencia o debate geral sobre a intervenção militar e a PoC.Palavras-Chave: Uso da força, MONUSCO, FIB, Proteção de Civis, Ilhas de Estabilidade.

The long-established relationships between Argentina and the Arab world are the result of the significant presence of Arab communities and actors in Latin America, due to several migratory waves along history. However, bilateral relations with the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) have only deepened much more recently. Initiatives to widen relations such as the Summits of the South American-Arab Countries (ASPA, from its acronym in Spanish) and MERCOSUR-GCC have worked not only as a framework but also as a platform to diversify those relations in terms of the actors and initiatives involved. Since its beginning, the relationship between Argentina and the GCC states has had continuity in terms of trade exchanges and public diplomacy, even during periods defined by the absence of public policies towards the GCC countries. In this context, initiatives of a different nature conducted by socio-cultural or religious non-state actors have filled the gap, in a process of multiple exchanges, have  added value to the relation and have gone further than the economic realm and formalities of public diplomacy, especially in the period 2003-2015. Key words: Gulf Cooperation Council, Argentina, bilateral relations, non-state actors.
Condicionantes domésticos, regionales e internacionales y su incidencia sobre la política exterior de Bahrein tras los levantamientos en el mundo árabe/Domestic, regional and international constraints and their impact on Bahrain's foreign policy after the uprisings in the Arab world
Authors: Fabani Ornela
Published: April 2020

Bahrein es una de las seis monarquías ubicadas en torno al Golfo arábigo y, entre las mismas, aquella que ha debido sortear las protestas más fuertes una vez iniciados los levantamientos que golpearon a la región de Medio Oriente, entre finales de 2010 y principios de 2011. Desde entonces esta zona ha atravesado una importante reconfiguración a raíz de una serie de conflictos o focos de tensión que han hecho eclosión en la misma, así como también a partir de la emergencia de nuevos actores que han cobrado protagonismo y otros que han perdido cuotas de poder. Esto sin mencionar la proliferación de sospechas, intrigas y resquemores que ha tenido lugar en dicho espacio, un conjunto de eventualidades ante las cuales Manama ha tenido que posicionarse. El objetivo de este trabajo reside en describir y analizar cuáles son y cómo inciden los condicionantes domésticos, regionales e internacionales sobre la política exterior de Bahrein tras las protestas en el mundo árabe.Palabras clave: condicionantes domésticos, regionales e internacionales; política exterior; Bahrein.  Abstract: Bahrain is one of the six monarchies situated around the Arabian Gulf and, between them, the one that has had to overcome the strongest protests after the beginning of the uprisings in Middle East, between late 2010 and early 2011. Since then, this area has undergone a major reconfiguration due to a series of conflicts or flashpoints that have been hatching in the same, and to the emergence of new actors who have gained prominence and others who have lost power. Not to mention the proliferation of suspicion and intrigue that has taken place in that space, a set of eventualities against which Manama has had to take position. The aim of this work is to describe and analyze which are the domestic, regional and international constraints and how they impact on the foreign policy of Bahrain after protests in the Arab world.Key words: domestic, regional and international constraints; foreign policy; Bahrain.
Cape Verde in West Africa region: towards a new paradigm for regional integration
Authors: Madeira João Paulo , Monteiro Nataniel Andrade
Published: April 2020

The West African region has immeasurable natural resources and a market of more than 300 million consumers, contributing directly to the dynamics of the global economy. This article aims to identify the importance of this region in the development of Cape Verde, an economically dependent country that has given primacy to its foreign policy to bet on political and economic diplomacy. This investigation was a literature review, complemented through an interpretative analysis, in which the results obtained may allow to consider that the archipelago of Cape Verde needs to delineate a new paradigm of regional integration, vying for the West African geo-economics’ space and using as a platform to provide services to other ECOWAS countries, so that the gains may also revert to the strengthening of cooperation with the African continent.Keywords: Cape Verde; West Africa; ECOWAS; Regional Integration; Development.
The international determinants of the Bosnian War
Authors: Gomes Guimarães Bruno
Published: April 2020

This paper analyzes the international determinants that led to and triggered the Bosnian War in the 1990s. An overview of the Socialist Yugoslavia and its international stance up to its dismemberment is presented at first, focusing on the integration of the country in the international system (and its impact on Yugoslavia) and on its international economic status. Then, the onset of the war and the actions of the Great Powers — United States, France, Germany, United Kingdom, and Russia — are analyzed, looking at the undermining of the Yugoslav state's sovereignty and the empowerment of domestic actors through external support to belligerent groups. It is seen that after Yugoslavia's economic destabilization, foreign interference propelled the start of the war by making the belligerent groups in Bosnia confident because of their foreign support. Geopolitical interests were a determinant of the Bosnian War, which was characterized as an intractable ethnic conflict to hide political agendas at play.Keywords: Bosnian War; Yugoslavia; Post-Cold War geopolitics; Dismemberment of Yugoslavia;  Great power politics; Ethnic conflict.
India´'s Place in the Foreign Policy of Brazil: the multilateral nexus
Authors: Santoro Rocha Mauricio
Published: April 2020

Cooperation between Brazil and India in multilateral organizations goes back to the 1960s, with common positions in several United Nations´ agencies and in the GATT. In the current period, post-Cold War, it has been the strongest characteristic of the relation among both countries, with partnerships in many global fora, such as BRICS, G4, G20, BASIC, and IBSA, with common goals of reforming the international system in order to attend the demands of emerging nations. This affinity – the multilateral nexus - creates possibilities for Brazilian foreign policy regarding an Asia on the rise, including the opportunity for some balancing for the growing influence of China.

Mudanças climáticas, segurança humana e atores não-estatais violentos: o Boko Haram na região do lago Chade
Authors: Ferreira Marcos Alan S. V. , Silva Max Sarney A. , Paiva Iure
Published: April 2020

O presente trabalho introduz o debate sobre como as mudanças climáticas, principalmente através da intensificação de situações climáticas extremas, são capazes de potencializar riscos à segurança. Particularmente, o estudo procura analisar a dinâmica entre as mudanças climáticas e o surgimento e ampliação de conflitos, assim como a insurgência de atores não-estatais violentos (ANEVs). Em especial, analisou-se o caso da região Subsaariana do Lago Chade, a qual enfrenta problemas ligados à seca extrema e a expansão de ANEVs, em especial o avanço do Boko Haram na Nigéria. O estudo de caso demonstra que as mudanças climáticas, ainda que de forma indireta, são capazes de influenciar tanto na potencialização de conflitos como no aumento da ação dos ANEVs, sobretudo reduzindo as chances dos habitantes da região em lidar com a precariedade da situação, tornando-a ainda mais tensa quando associada a outras fragilidades socioeconômicas e políticas já existentes na região.

 

Abstract: This paper aims to introduce the debate on how climate change, especially through the intensification of extreme climatic situations, is capable of enhancing security risks, particularly in the emergence and expansion of conflicts conducted by violent non-state actors (VNSAs). In particular, it presents a case study about the sub-Saharan region of Lake Chad, which faces problems related to the extreme drought and the expansion of VNSAs, especially the rise of Boko Haram in Nigeria. Our case analysis demonstrates that climate change, although indirectly, is capable of influencing both the potentialization of conflicts and the increase of the action of ANEVs, especially when associated with other socioeconomic fragilities and existing policies in a region.

Keywords: Climate Change; Human Security; Violent Non-State Actors; Lake Chad; Boko Haram.

Światy Gałczyńskiego
Authors: Ossowski Jerzy Stefan
Published: April 2020

W roku 1937 ukazały się "Utwory poetyckie" Konstantego Ildefonsa Gałczyńskiego. W dyskusji o tym tomie wierszy głos zabrali pisarze: Witold Gombrowicz i Józef Czechowicz oraz krytycy: Bolesław Miciński, Stefan Lichański, Kazimierz Wyka. Wszyscy dowodzili, że na tle polskiej poezji Dwudziestolecia twórczość Gałczyńskiego stanowi zjawisko niezwykłe, oryginalne. Autor artykułu skonfrontował oceny wspomnianych znawców literatury z opiniami badaczy współczesnych, którzy te oceny potwierdzili oraz ugruntowali hermeneutycznie (Andrzej Lam, Adama Kulawik). Wyciągnął z tych werdyktów wnioski aksjologiczne i postawił tezę, że wiersze oraz poematy metafizyczne Gałczyńskiego mogą być uznane za reprezentatywne dla polskiej poezji XX wieku. Rezultaty ideowo-artystycznej analizy tych poematów ("Bal u Salomona") i wierszy ("Serwus, Madonna"), dowodzą, że ideologia, cenzura oraz krytyka – które były na usługach państwa komunistycznego – zniekształciły recepcję i interpretację liryki Gałczyńskiego. W poezji europejskiej poemat Gałczyńskiego, "Bal u Salomona", i jego liryka metafizyczna – powinny zająć to miejsce, jakie zajęła katastroficzna i metafizyczna poezja Thomasa Stearnsa Eliota.
Using misinformation as a political weapon: COVID-19 and Bolsonaro in Brazil
Authors: Ricard Julie , Medeiros Juliano
Published: April 2020

With over 30,000 confirmed cases, Brazil is currently the country most affected by COVID-19 in Latin America, and ranked 12th worldwide (John Hopkins University & Medicine, 2020). Despite all evidence, a strong rhetoric undermining risks associated to COVID-19 has been endorsed at the highest levels of the Brazilian government, making President Jair Bolsonaro the leader of the “coronavirus-denial movement” (Friedman, 2020. To support this strategy, different forms of misinformation and disinformation2 have been leveraged to lead a dangerous crusade against scientific and evidence-based recommendations (Ireton & Posetti, 2018).
