As metamorfoses do governo representativo no Brasil: o que mudou com a Revolução de 19301
Authors: Ricci Paolo , Arruda Larissa Rodrigues Vacari de , Massimo Lucas , Zulini Jaqueline Porto
Published: February 2025

Qual o impacto do Código Eleitoral de 1932 sobre o governo representativo? Respondemos à pergunta, analisando dados inéditos sobre três dimensões constitutivas do governo representativo: participação eleitoral, competição política e perfil das elites políticas. Concluímos que o governo representativo mudou substantivamente o formato da participação política, mobilizando um número expressivo de eleitores; profundamente a representação política, dando acesso às oposições; limitadamente as elites políticas em seus atributos biográficos, ainda que de forma mais acentuada em termos da circulação delas. Os achados do artigo nos levam a defender que esse período histórico deve ser mais bem estudado, considerando-se que ele compartilha o princípio fundador do governo representativo: a seleção dos representantes por meio de eleições, mesmo sem democracia.
The institutionalization of local food and nutritional security councils in the face of an anti-citizen participation government and COVID-191
Authors: Pessali Huáscar , Araujo Elizandra Flávia , Thieme Rubia
Published: February 2025

The National Food and Nutritional Security System (SISAN) and its participatory bodies have been operating since 2006. Local councils are its lowest level parts. Their institutionalization has mostly been linked to their legal creation rather than their regular operation. In this context, we collected evidence of their activities in Paraná between 2018 and 2022. This period was peculiarly adverse to councils, given the federal government's strong anti-participatory position between 2019 and 2022, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Has their institutionalization continued or collapsed? Three swings of activity were found. First, activity increased in 2019, declined sharply in 2020, and recovered to 2018 levels by 2021. Councils with stronger ties to SISAN, formal mechanisms, in larger municipalities, and in those with better state capacities displayed stronger institutionalization.
Extraction of phenolic acids from cocoa residues as linkers for the synthesis of porous materials
Authors: Garzón-Serrano Andrea , Umaña-Pérez Adriana , Sierra César A.
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT The accumulation and utilization of cocoa pod husk (CPH) and cocoa bean shell (CBS), representing 80% of cocoa processing residues, requires an innovative approach, due to their chemical composition, to generate added value. Among the chemical components found in CPH and CBS extracts, gallic and protocatechuic acids are the most abundant. These biomolecules are of great interest as metal coordination centers, like biological metal-organic frameworks. Therefore, this study aimed to optimize the extraction conditions of phenolic compounds (extraction technique, time, temperature, residue/solvent ratio, and mixture of extraction solvents) in CPH and CBS, mainly looking for the conditions that allow the highest percentage of extraction of gallic and protocatechuic acids. The optimal extraction conditions revealed that CBS extracts exhibited 89% antioxidant activity, along with higher amounts of phenolic compounds and quantified phenolic acids than CPH extracts. Therefore, CBS demonstrates greater efficiency as a renewable source of organic linkers for biological metal-organic framework synthesis.

Published: February 2025

Abstract This article describes a new multifunctional oral cavity simulator (MOCS) that allows, with little technical support and easy handling, the laboratory development of dental hard tissue lesions under clinically similar conditions. The MOCS consists of a heating unit containing three independent cylindrical chambers with three specimen holders inside. Liquids flow through the surfaces of specimens by inlets on the lid of the chamber, which is connected to a medium/artificial saliva source through a computer-controlled peristaltic pump. The design, operational principles, and clinical application of this simulator, such as microcosm-induced development of carious-like lesions, acidic-induced erosion-abrasion like-lesions, and testing the anticariogenic effect of restorative materials, are shown. The MOCS can mimic several aspects of the oral cavity, being a promising device for assessing dental hard tissue lesions.
Momentos de estudo do conceito nas formações de professores de matemática
Authors: Mocrosky Luciane Ferreira , Dambros de Carlos Vanessa de Fátima Custódio , Panossian Maria Lucia
Published: February 2025

Resumo Neste trabalho, nosso objetivo é apresentar e discutir as manifestações referentes à compreensão dos conceitos pelos professores participantes na Oficina Pedagógica de Matemática (OPM), um processo de formação continuada que ocorreu em São Bento do Sul (SC). A proposta é sustentada pela Atividade Orientadora de Ensino como base teórico-metodológica, fundamentada nos princípios do materialismo histórico-dialético, da teoria histórico-cultural e da teoria da atividade. Com base nesses pressupostos, compreendemos que a atividade do professor pressupõe a organização intencional e sistemática de ações que desencadeiam nos estudantes processos de apropriação dos conceitos e das experiências histórico-culturais humanas. Ao apresentarmos a análise de um dos momentos formativos na OPM, identificamos que existem falhas na compreensão dos professores, o que implica no modo de organizar as ações de ensino dos conceitos. Assim, queremos chamar atenção para a necessidade de o docente conhecer teoricamente o objeto de ensino, o conceito, em seu movimento histórico-lógico, as necessidades e as relações estabelecidas na sua constituição. Defendemos que os processos formativos docentes se constituam como atividade, colocando o professor em processo de aprendizagem e mobilizando-o para a necessidade de apropriar-se das relações conceituais articuladas aos processos pedagógicos da docência. Nesse sentido, ressaltamos o trabalho na OPM, que é embasado nos pressupostos da AOE, constituindo-se como uma possibilidade de organizar espaços formativos que contemplem ações voltadas à articulação teórica e prática, ao estudo coletivo e à compreensão dos conceitos em um ambiente de aprendizado reflexivo para os docentes.
The construction of number in concrete and electronic games: the Kalah game case

Published: February 2025

Abstract Games have sparked interest as an object of study in multiple areas of knowledge. In this research, we will discuss the impacts of the new formats and configurations of games in current times, based on the Piagetian interactionist theory’s contributions. The main objective of the study was to analyze the effects of an intervention with the Kalah game, in its concrete version and in its electronic version, for the construction of the notion of number. Thirty-eight children took part in the investigation, their ages ranged from seven to ten years old, from both genders, enrolled at two county Elementary Schools, located in a small town in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, subdivided into 3 groups: EG1 - Experimental Group, subjected to the intervention with Kalah in its electronic version; EG2 – Experimental Group, subjected to the intervention with Kalah in its concrete version and CG-Control Group. As instruments of pretest and posttest, the operatory tests/proofs of conservation, classification, and serialization were utilized, to verify if there were qualitative and/or quantitative changes to the thought’s structures. The results indicated the most expressive differences in the assessed structures amongst the subjects from the Experimental Groups when compared to the Control Group, just as there was a distinction in the performances of the subjects from the experimental groups, after the intervention. During the sessions with the Kalah electronic game, it was found that the fundamental principles of the Piagetian theory could not be assured, possibly being one of the pedagogic interventions’ limitations.
Impactos regionais das exportações de commodities minerais (2007-2018): uma abordagem aplicada SUR espacial

Resumo Por meio da abordagem SUR (Seemingly unrelated regressions) espacial, o artigo analisa como choques de exportações do setor de commodities minerais impactaram a produtividade média em 75 áreas industriais especializadas, durante o período conhecido como superciclo de commodities (2007-2018). Após controlar aspectos de primeira natureza relacionados à abundância dos recursos naturais, os testes econométricos revelaram: (1) uma convexidade na elasticidade do fator trabalho, reforçada pela presença das economias de escala característica da produção especializada; (2) uma elasticidade da demanda por bens intermediários relativamente superior, mas visivelmente rígida no longo prazo; (3) efeitos líquido permanente das exportações, porém irrelevante para alavancar a produtividade média nas 75 áreas industriais examinadas, ao longo do período considerado; e (4) uma forte heterogeneidade espacial, mas que pode ser controlada pela estrutura SUR-SEM.
Predictors of Body Appreciation in Brazilian Girls Aged From Nine to 14 Years
Authors: Possani Tatiane , Laus Maria Fernanda , Alves Wigna Gabriella da Silva , Torres Sandra , Almeida Sebastião Sousa
Published: February 2025

Abstract: Social pressure toward a certain body standard harms well-being and can lead to psychological distress in adolescent girls. This study investigated self-esteem, eating behavior, age, and body mass index as predictors of body appreciation in 222 Brazilian girls ( M = 11.60, SD = 1.63) who responded to the Body Appreciation Scale, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and the Children’s Eating Attitudes Test. Self-esteem, body mass index and age accounted for 52% of the variance in body appreciation and self-esteem emerged as the strongest predictor in the hierarchical linear regression analysis. The greater the age and body mass index, the lower the body appreciation in the evaluated girls. Finally, girls who showed lower body appreciation had higher disordered eating attitudes. This study brings new findings about body appreciation in Brazilian girls, especially that body appreciation tends to decrease during the transition from childhood to adolescence.

Authors: Barbosa Marcela de Moura Franco , Melo-Silva Lucy Leal , Oliveira José Egídio Barbosa
Published: February 2025

Abstract: Changes in the contemporary world of work require workers to develop socioemotional competencies, career adaptability, and employability. The literature shows evidence of the relation between these two variables. This study aimed to assess possible correlations between the following variables in university students: socioemotional competencies, career adaptability, and employability. The sample consisted of 273 higher education trainees (aged 18-54 years, average 25). Data were collected online via Google Forms using four instruments: the SENNA Inventory for the Assessment of Social and Emotional Skills, the Self-Perceived Employability Scale, the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale, and an Identification Questionnaire. In general, significant and positive correlations occurred between socioemotional competencies, career adaptability, and employability, except for friendship and self-management, engagement with others and emotional regulation, maintaining current employment, and friendship and self-management. These results have relevant implications for research and career counseling.
Advance directives and psychology in palliative care: a scoping review
Authors: Rocha Thaís Chaves Rosendo , Mello Glenda Ramos Ebert de , Lima Louizia Pinto , Sampaio Carla Nogueira , Fialho Ivan de Paula
Published: February 2025

Abstract This scoping review aimed to understand advance directives in the context of palliative care from the perspective of psychology. Based on the available literature, the review was conducted using the PRISMA-ScR method. Eighteen articles were selected from SciELO, LILACS, and PePSIC databases for the final review. Duplicate studies, non-scientific articles, and studies that did not address the study topic or the Brazilian context were excluded. Advance directives, besides being closely related to the reduction of anxiety and depression symptoms, play an important role in promoting patient autonomy. We concluded that psychologists contribute to the implementation of advance directives, help with communication and family acceptance, and help with grief. Finally, future studies should expand the discussion on this topic, especially in psychology, a field with a lack of studies.
Bioethics and speech-language therapy in palliative care: an integrative review
Authors: Lopes Milene Valente , França Anna Julia Cantuária
Published: February 2025

Abstract Speech-language therapists are part of the multidisciplinary palliative and end-of-life care team, playing a fundamental role in swallowing and communication demands. When dealing with the well-being and quality of life of patients with serious and incurable diseases, these professionals may face dilemmas and conflicting issues, given that the techniques suggested and the choices of the patient and their family may be divergent. The objective of this study is to identify, from the literature, whether speech-language therapists who work in this area consider bioethical principles in their treatment decisions. The databases used were SciELO, PubMed, and the Virtual Health Library. It was found that speech-language therapists consider and use bioethical principles in their professional practice in palliative and end-of-life care. The number of articles found on the speech-language therapists’ work in this area is small, indicating the need for further studies on the subject.

ASPECTOS ESTRUTURAIS E COMPORTAMENTAIS DO ENSINO NA PANDEMIA DE COVID-19
Authors: Marin Ramon , Tarifa Ana Luisa Galharde
Published: February 2025

RESUMO A pandemia de Covid-19 modificou as práticas pedagógicas em diversos estágios da educação. Embora os efeitos dessas mudanças ainda não sejam claros alguns autores têm dado evidência ao agravamento das dificuldades de aprendizagem, além do aumento das desigualdades entre classes sociais. O presente trabalho discorre sobre dois elementos que podem ter ampliado as dificuldades de promover práticas de ensino emergencial de forma igualitária para o maior número de alunos possível. Serão considerados aspectos estruturais (e.g., acesso à internet e condições mínimas para sua utilização) e aspectos comportamentais (i.e., habilidades necessárias para adaptação às novas práticas pedagógicas emergenciais). A análise desses elementos permite considerar que sem um conjunto de intervenções de grande amplitude durante o período do ensino remoto, as condições mínimas necessárias para a prática educacional não foram atendidas, o que transformou a educação em uma ferramenta de agravamento das desigualdades.
STRUCTURAL AND BEHAVIORAL TEACHING ASPECTS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Authors: Marin Ramon , Tarifa Ana Luisa Galharde
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT The Covid-19 pandemic has changed pedagogical practices at various stages of education. Although the effects of these changes are still unclear, some authors have highlighted the worsening of learning difficulties, in addition to the increase in inequalities between social classes. This paper discusses two elements that may have increased the difficulties of promoting emergency teaching practices equally for the largest possible number of students. Structural aspects (e.g., access to the internet and minimum conditions for its use) and behavioral aspects (i.e., necessary skills to adapt to new emergency pedagogical practices) will be considered. The analysis of these elements allows us to consider that without a set of wide-ranging interventions during the period of remote teaching, the minimum conditions necessary for educational practice were not met, which transformed education into a tool for worsening inequalities.
Propuesta de evaluación cualitativa en derechos humanos
Authors: Yoma Solana María
Published: February 2025

Resumen El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo formular una propuesta de evaluación cualitativa en derechos humanos que permita contribuir con una asignatura pendiente en los sistemas de monitoreo promovidos por Naciones Unidas y el Sistema Interamericano: la incorporación de información cualitativa que recupere los significados construidos por las personas en relación al cumplimiento de sus derechos. Para ello, retomamos la definición conceptual de las “señales de progreso cualitativas” propuesta por el Sistema Interamericano de Derechos Humanos y la conjugamos con un diseño metodológico orientado a construirlas de manera inductiva, comprensiva y situada, en correspondencia con las características definitorias de la investigación cualitativa. Así, este trabajo se constituye en una apuesta por ampliar las herramientas metodológicas en derechos humanos, en aras de trascender la lógica de comprobación de los indicadores cuantitativos y avanzar en una comprensión sobre los progresos, retrocesos y estancamientos en materia de derechos a partir de los significados construidos por las diversas personas involucradas.
Codificación civil y Modernidad. Una relectura con perspectiva de género
Authors: Marichal María Eugenia
Published: February 2025

Resumen Este trabajo tiene por objeto realizar una relectura con perspectiva de género de algunos relatos tradicionales sobre el proceso de codificación civil moderno. Se parte de considerar que aún los estudios más críticos adoptan una perspectiva androcéntrica por defecto. El análisis se focaliza en dos dimensiones del proceso codificatorio que permiten mostrar los sesgos patriarcales de los relatos históricos. En primer lugar, se explora la articulación del movimiento codificatorio con la revolución científica y sus efectos de exclusión de las mujeres de los ámbitos de saber legitimados. Segundo, se cuestiona la noción de sujeto moderno resaltando los silencios y contradicciones en el discurso de los derechos universales. Finalmente, se ofrecen algunas reflexiones acerca de la necesidad de abordar la investigación jurídica con perspectiva de género.
El legado metodológico de la filosofía política de Marx: la forma-Estado emanada de la forma-valor
Authors: Tenorio Gerardo Ávalos , Mendes Áquilas , Tavares Hugo Rezende
Published: February 2025

Resumen Este artículo se propone volver a las fuentes filosóficas del pensamiento de Marx como estrategia para comprender su procedimiento metodológico. Esto es necesario cuando lo que se indaga es el lugar que ocupa en su obra el concepto de Estado. Afirmar que “no existe una teoría del Estado” en Marx elude la dimensión fundamental de la Crítica de la economía política como un texto de filosofía política que trata sobre un modo de civilización de la humanidad. La lógica que articula esta Crítica procede de fuentes idealistas: desde ahí, complementadas con la extracción de la lógica del contractualismo, es posible esclarecer una forma de entender al Estado. En este sentido, se enfatiza la comprensión del Estado como forma-Estado, derivada de la forma-valor.
Marca registrada: a construção da autorrepresentação de d. Obá II d’África no contexto do abolicionismo no Brasil (1878-1890)

Published: February 2025

RESUMO O presente artigo tem como foco a análise da imagética construída entorno da figura de d. Obá II através da imprensa do Rio de Janeiro ao longo da década de 1880, momento de radicalização das relações raciais no Brasil. A partir de uma história das imagens, evidencia o racismo nas charges de que d. Obá é alvo, ao mesmo tempo em que demonstra sua agência na construção da autorrepresentação como ferramenta de luta no contexto da campanha abolicionista no país. Constata, por fim, o pioneirismo de d. Obá no uso da fotografia e das novas tecnologias de reprodução de imagens como instrumento capaz de projetar uma visão positiva da identidade social negra na luta por igualdade e direitos civis.

ABSTRACT The carbon isotope composition of Dissolved Inorganic Carbon (δ13CDIC) is a useful tool to study the carbon budget in estuarine settings. Here we present the first set of δ13CDIC data from the Cananéia-Iguape Estuarine Complex (São Paulo, Brazil), a changing environment undergoing freshening at a rate of the order of 770 m3 s-1. We measured δ13CDIC values of water at 15 stations distributed across the area, both during neap and spring tide, in May 2015 and April 2017. The spatio-temporal variability of δ13CDIC suggests a conservative mixing of two water endmembers, freshwater with δ13CDIC = −10 ‰ (V-PDB) and seawater with δ13CDIC = +2.0 ‰ (V-PDB). Linear regression of δ13CDIC vs. salinity predicts the δ13CDIC values of open ocean surface water from the nearby Santos Basin and suggests that the freshwater and seawater endmembers mix at 1:1 proportion in the estuarine complex. Mixing was the dominant process governing the behavior of δ13CDIC values, whereas photosynthesis, degradation of organic matter, and CO2 uptake or outgassing did not play a significant role. In particular, phytoplankton production had no impact on δ13CDIC, suggesting that the ecosystem was exempt from eutrophication. Long-term freshening in the NE sector of the estuary did not significantly impact the δ13C values of DIC. These results underline the need for long-term measurements of δ13CDIC in the study area to contribute to the understanding of the evolution of the estuarine complex, whose freshening trend could be enhanced by extreme precipitation events linked to climate change.
Phenotypic variation of Thenus spp. (Decapoda, Scyllaridae) in the waters of southern Thailand and Malaysia using multivariate morphometric analysis

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT Thenus spp. are slipper lobsters which are commercially significant as a food source with good aquaculture potential. This study focuses on collecting population information on Thenus orientalis and Thenus indicus from selected sites in southern Thailand and Malaysia to inform sustainable fisheries management about the resources. Twenty-five size-adjusted morphometric measurements were analyzed using canonical discriminant function and dendrogram cluster analyses to examine patterns of phenotypic variation between sites. Significant phenotypic variation with distinct centroids and minimal overlapping cases were observed among four sites of T. orientalis (p < 0.05), as well as cluster analysis groupings occurring as in (i) Kota Kinabalu and Kudat, in Sabah, Malaysia; (ii) Pattani; and (iii) Nakhon Si Thammarat, in Thailand, which were best discriminated by the width of the third pereiopod merus, the sixth abdomen segment, and the carapace posterior margin. Similar morphometric data between Kota Kinabalu and Kudat suggests a subpopulation of T. orientalis occurring in Sabah waters. Significant phenotypic variation was also detected between six sites of T. indicus (p < 0.05), with close centroids and overlapping cases forming three groups: (i) Ranong and Nakhon Si Thammarat; (ii) Kota Kinabalu, Tanjung Sedili, and Kuala Terengganu; and (iii) Pattani, best described by the widths of the second antenna and the first pereiopod merus, in addition to the length of the sixth abdomen segment. Cluster analysis shows the Pattani specimens clustering with the Malaysian specimens rather than the Thai specimens, suggesting homogeneous morphometric data between contiguous sites. Nakhon and Pattani forming separate groups in both species suggest discreet subpopulations occurring in the lower Gulf of Thailand. Patterns of phenotypic variation observed may be attributable to environmental conditions, local adaptations, and nomadic behavior. The findings can serve as baseline information for spatial planning in fisheries management, as well as to apprise regional efforts in the sustainable exploitation of Thenus spp.

Published: February 2025

College students continue to invest a good deal of time in electronic sports despite potential risks such as addiction, health impairment, and social isolation possibly outweighing the benefits of gameplay. This mixed-methods study examines the impact of esports on 38 collegiate gamers and further explores the students’ motivations, gaming habits, and the effects of their engagement on academic performance, social interactions, and overall well-being. It reveals that esports may be beneficial in the formation of friendships, reducing negative peer pressure, and enhancing social capital. Academic advantages are also prominent, with participants reporting improved skills relevant to their coursework, better grades, and an enhanced focus on academics due to the structured nature of esports. However, the study also addresses potential risks, including toxicity, addiction, and adverse health effects like sleep deprivation and stress. Included are critical considerations and policy recommendations for campus esports programs as well as future research directions.

Published: February 2025

Scientific progress hinges on collaboration, trust, and the exchange of ideas. This essay explores the roles of "Givers" and "Takers" within the scientific community, emphasizing how behaviors focused on collective advancement drive innovation and enduring success. Givers foster environments of mutual respect and sustainable partnerships, while Takers, prioritizing short-term gains, risk undermining the collaborative fabric of science. Through a conceptual analysis, the manuscript highlights the importance of strategic generosity in overcoming challenges posed by Takers and underscores the necessity of institutional support for a culture of giving. The discussion concludes with a call to embrace collaborative values as a pathway to meaningful and lasting contributions in science.
The Importance of Measuring the Fraction of Diaphragmatic Thickening in Patients with COPD
Authors: Amine Meridj , Redouan Belala , Yacine Djeghri
Published: February 2025

In addition to affecting the respiratory system, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease also decreases muscle mass. The respiratory muscles weaken, which impairs ventilation and exercise tolerance. According to recent studies, ultrasonography is a dependable and user-friendly method for determining the diaphragm thickening fraction (TFdi) in patients with COPD.
Objective: Evaluate the diaphragm thickening fraction by ultrasound in patients with COPD and correlate with different clinical, ventilatory variables, and the six-minute walking test.
Méthods: We conducted a prospective, observational study from 2021 to 2024. A total of Sixty-one consecutive patients with spirometry-confirmed stable COPD were included after obtaining informed written consent. Demographic and clinical data, spirometric values, the mMRC dyspnea score, the number of exacerbations, the COPD Assessment test (CAT), GOLD classification 2023, and the diaphragm thickening fraction (TFdi) were collected for analysis.
This is a prospective study conducted at Constantine Regional Military University Hospital.
Results: The mean of diaphragm thickening fraction, evaluated by ultrasound (Tfdi), in our patients with COPD was 48,9 ± 21.1%, The average BMI is 24.12 4.83 kg/m 2, with extreme values ranging from 14.6 to 36.9 kg/m 2, a positive correlation has been reported between Tfdi and the BMI (p = 0,003) a negative correlation has been reported between Tfdi and the dyspné MMRC, in our study, no objective correlation was found between TFdi and blood gas in our cohort, the average of FVC pré = 3,52 (L), FEV1 pré (L/s) ) 1,91, FEV1/FVC pré (%) = 53,57, a correlation between the Tfdi and spirometric data (FVC; FEV1; FEV1/FVC) was objectified, finally our study has shown that the more Tfdi increases, the distance patients travel increases (p = 0,001).
Conclusion: In patients with COPD, diaphragm thickening fraction (TFdi) appears to be associated with airway obstruction and BMI, 6-minute walking test as well as blood gas and perception of dyspnea.
NATIONAL CULTURAL ASPECT OF STUDYING FUND ONYMICON AS A LINGUOCULTURAL PHENOMENON IN POSTMODERN LITERARY DISCOURSE
Authors:   Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts, Hurbanska Svitlana O.
Published: February 2025

The article studies theoretical and methodological principles of researching national cultural semantics of onyms in the structure of set expressions of postmodern discourse using the example of English fiction by A. Carter; presents theoretical and methodological bases on which the study of the national cultural peculiarities of set expressions with onym components is grounded; outlines national cultural features of set expressions with onym components; determines origin sources of onyms in the composition of set expressions; identifies types of assessment reflected in phraseological units with onym components; offers a linguocultural approach to the study of phraseology through the prism of linguistic and cultural interaction; highlights the role of set expressions with onym components in the linguage model of the world; identifies functions of onyms in the semantic structure of phraseological signs (creating expressive imagery, ensuring conciseness of information presentation, enhancing clearness/expressiveness of the statement, conveying attitude/evaluation, giving connotative shades to the statement, expanding the boundaries of the language game, etc.).

The relevance of the study grounds on the increased emphasis of modern anthropocentric linguistics on researching the interaction of language, environment, and culture. Therefore, it is the linguocultural aspect of studying phraseologisms in connection with the fund onymicon that contributes to identifying the spiritual and moral values ​​of the national cultural community, establishing the language and culture interaction, determining the national cultural specifics of set expressions as signs of speech, which contain in their semantic structure the value heritage of the national culture with all its inherent universal phenomena.
A promising aspect of further research is an in-depth study of implementing linguocultural concepts using the fund onymicon in postmodern literary discourse.
Массовый спорт в эпоху селф-трекинга
Authors: Антипов Алексей Владимирович
Published: February 2025

Массовый спорт представляет собой распространение практик упражнений, которые рассматриваются как способ профилактики заболеваний и поддержания здоровья. Спортивные практики выходят далеко за пределы только заботы о собственном физическом состоянии, а также оказываются вписаны в способы сохранения ментального благополучия. Формирование определенной социальной практики массового занятия спортом пересекается с другой тенденцией современности — селф-трекингом. Под селф-трекингом понимаются разнородные виды активности, направленные на сбор и анализ данных о функционировании организма, ментальных состояниях и социальных контактах.

В статье рассматривается, как практики селф-трекинга, изначально направленные на фокусировании внимания на произошедших изменениях, меняют представления о том, что значит заниматься спортом. Практики селф-трекинга, такие как автоаналитика, лайфлоггинг, биохакинг и др., позволяют в режиме реального времени измерять и фиксировать количественные показатели организма для их дальнейшего анализа. Основная цель указанных практик состоит в прояснении показателей организма и ментальных состояний для познания себя и отслеживания происходящих изменений.

Показывается, что использование селф-трекинга в массовом спорте способно оказывать негативный эффект, поскольку в процессе использования данных технологий происходит подмена феноменального опыта и качественной оценки собственного состояния на количественные показатели, применяемые в селф-трекинге. Обосновывается вывод, что использование устройств и практик селф-трекинга для массового спорта не приводит к качественному улучшению здоровья, но имеет биополитически и этически негативные эффекты, выраженные озабоченностью количественными показателями, подменой качественной оценки состояния на количественную и псевдопознанием себя через цифры.

The Limit Phenomenon as a Base of the Mind Intentionality and the Objective Reality Perception
Authors:   Russian Academy of Public Administration under the President of the Russian Federation, Pugacheva L.G.
Published: February 2025

Our work is dedicated to the philosophical analysis of the "limit" phenomenon. The author considers the "limit" as a clear symbol devoid
of content, which expresses the essential sense of the Symbolic. The
"limit" is viewed as a base abstraction – the source of reflection of the
cognitive and epistemological instrument and the basis of plurality

Kuchenna bieda. Szkic antropologiczny o jedzeniu i przestrzeni
Authors: Kuźma Inga B.
Published: February 2025

Artykuł dotyczy kuchni i jedzenia, jakie należą także do zakresu pomocy społecznej, świadczonej osobom doświadczającym bezdomności lub zagrożonych bezdomnością. Jedzenie oraz pomieszczenia kuchenne są naznaczone statusem ich użytkowników i adresatów. Osoby, które mogą zdać się niemal wyłącznie na pomoc z zewnątrz, jedzą albo to, co mogą zdobyć od innych i po innych (uprawiając żebractwo, przeszukując śmietniki) albo to, co dostają od innych (wszelkie formy oficjalnego i wolontaryjnego dożywiania). Produkty, które służą do przygotowania posiłków dla potrzebujących, jak również sposób i miejsce ich przygotowania, spożycia czy wydawania, naznaczają jednak osoby korzystające z takiej formy pomocy. Tym bardziej, że dożywianie potrzebujących jest obwarowane wieloma obostrzeniami zawartymi m.in. w ustawach, rozporządzeniach i innych wytycznych państwowych oraz w wewnętrznych instytucjonalnych regulaminach. Kuchnia w tym kontekście jawi się przede wszystkim jako praktyka zabezpieczająca biologiczną możliwość przeżycia i zaspokojenia głodu. Można jednak też znaleźć przykłady, gdy praktyki jedzeniowe zapewniają wsparcie emocjonalne oraz społeczne. Symbolem solidarności stać się może posiłek oferowany przez Food not Bombs czy kuchnia – miejsce wspólne w jednym z łódzkich ośrodków, gdzie zachodzi „dzielenie się sobą”, czasem i emocjami, a nie tylko jedzeniem. Autorka pokazuje zróżnicowanie stosunku do kuchni i jedzenia oraz pożywienia, jak również odżywiania (się i innych), czerpiąc przykłady z własnych badań terenowych, prowadzonych od 2009 roku w łódzkich placówkach specjalizujących się w udzielaniu pomocy osobom doświadczającym bezdomności lub nią zagrożonych.
Meeting the Growing Demand for Nutri-Cereals: A Supply Assessment for Maharashtra, India
Authors: Naik Popavath Bhargav , Sindhuja Padigapati Venkata Naga , Perka Shiva Kumar , Devi Asha , Singh Alka
Published: February 2025

Background: Millets offer solutions for multiple challenges, including malnutrition, food insecurity, resource scarcity, agricultural production risks due to climate change and lifestyle-related health problems. Hence, increasing millet production and consumption contributes to achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2, 3, 12 and 13. The Government of India is actively promoting these crops to benefit both people and the planet. In recent years, there has been a growing awareness among urban populations about the nutritional benefits of millet. However, their supply has dwindled over the years due to a decrease in the land area dedicated to millet cultivation, which high-value commercial crops have replaced. If this trend continues, it could lead to a potential shortage of millets within the country. Methods: In this study, the anticipation demand and supply of millets in the Maharashtra state of India was projected by analyzing consumer expenditure data from the National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO) for the year 2011-12. Demand estimation was conducted through three distinct methodologies; static projections, normative benchmarks and behavioristic- Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System (QuAIDS) model allowing for comprehensive insights into consumption patterns and elasticity responses. Result: The projected demand for millets by 2036 is estimated at 3.90 million tons, while the supply is anticipated to be 0.76 million tons, resulting in a deficit of -3.14 million tonnes. If the current trends in cultivated area and crop yield persist, a substantial net deficit will be observed across all millet varieties included in the study. To mitigate this shortfall, strategic enhancing yield potential through initiatives as distributing high-quality seeds, incorporating biofortified varieties, promoting awareness, implementing price incentives and providing facilities for processing.
