Authors: Skalle Camilla , Eide Liv , Müller Gjesdal Anje , Maul Valentina
Published: January 2025

This article analyses the visual representation of gender in beginner’s books in the foreign language subjects French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and German, as textbooks are often students’ first encounter with the subject. Previous research suggests that women are both underrepresented and stereotypically portrayed in textbooks. The article presents a quantitative analysis of the visual materials in recent Norwegian textbooks, and finds a relatively even distribution of women and men in the materials, but the absence of non-binary people and gender diversity. The results point to limitations of existing methods for mapping visual representations of gender in textbooks and the need for more open representations of gender in this type of material.
CChallenges and (partial) solutions of gender-inclusive translation: Spanish, English, and French in the context of participatory research
Authors: Heap David , Díaz Colmenares Yarubi
Published: January 2025

Both co-authors have been coordinating translation work for the participatory research project The Surviving Memory in Postwar El Salvador including a variety of audiovisual materials (websites, ethics documents, subtitling videos, etc.).  This work presents our observations of student translator training based on mutual education as an effort to negotiate across differences (regional, generational, linguistic, etc.) and to model language that is less (gender) exclusionary while also honoring cultural and historical specificities. After presenting the participatory research project and describing the different types of translation tasks, we consider some concrete cases of translations towards Spanish but also in some cases towards English and French, along with theoretical and practical implications. The extracts that we discuss come from the project's Governance Model, followed by some examples of translations from survivor testimonies, Community dissemination reports, ethic protocols and other administrative documents. Throughout the discussion of these examples, we reflect about our challenges in translation, mostly linked to learning and teaching how to translate while translating and also about Inclusive Translation as (mutual) education. The discussion includes some thoughts about the challenges of training in our collaborative approach to translation, translating with space limitations, and the use (or not) of nonbinary inclusive language in translation, all of which contribute to our vision of translation as mutual education.
Motivasjon og kjønnsstereotypier blant elever på fremmedspråk i videregående skole
Authors: Wullum Ida Marie
Published: January 2025

In this contribution I look at the motivation behind the choice of foreign languages in upper secondary school and whether different foreign languages are linked to various gender stereotypes. We know that gender influences the selection of foreign languages in school, and especially French has a distinct gender profile with many girls and few boys. I aim to establish whether there is a correlation between the weak recruitment of boys into French and whether French is perceived as a more feminine language. In this contribution, I have used a digitized survey that was distributed to students in several schools in Norway. The survey asked students about their choice of foreign languages, motivation and perceptions of masculine and feminine traits associated with these languages. The results of the survey confirm much of what we find in previous studies on motivation, where students studying Spanish and French are largely affectively motivated, whilst German has more instrumentally motivated students. Furthermore, French is perceived as the most feminine language, while German is perceived as the most masculine. From the student’s own comments an underlying pattern emerges; the students believe that almost only girls choose French and that the languages themselves are perceived as feminine or masculine rather than qualities related to the culture and the people. This contribution can give a better understanding of what it means for students to perceive French as a feminine language which is important to continue the work of recruiting boys to the French language programme and ensure that French continues to have a future in the Norwegian school system.

Causal Relationship Between Psoriasis and Bullous Pemphigoid: A Mendelian Randomization Analysis
Authors: Wang Xiaoxue , Zhu Zexin
Published: January 2025

Introduction: Psoriasis and bullous pemphigoid (BP) are the 2 major types of immune-mediated inflammatory skin diseases. Studies have reported the association between psoriasis and BP; however, no studies reported whether a causal relationship exists between these 2 skin diseases. Objectives: In order to explore the causal relationship between psoriasis and BP, we performed a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study. Methods: Genome-wide association study (GWAS) data related to psoriasis and BP were collected. The inverse variance weighted (IVW) method was primarily applied for our MR analysis, MR-Egger, weighted median, simple mode, and weighted mode methods were used additionally. Heterogeneity, horizontal pleiotropy, and potential outliers were assessed for the MR analysis results. Results: GWAS data for psoriasis (3 cohorts) and BP (1 cohort) from publicly available trials were selected. Our MR results showed that psoriasis was causally associated with BP, psoriasis could increase the risk of BP, reversed MR showed BP has no causal effect on psoriasis. No heterogeneity or pleiotropy was detected.  Conclusion: These findings provided new evidence of the causal relationship between psoriasis and BP, our MR suggested that psoriasis is potentially causal to BP, which help us improving the treatment strategy for patients with psoriasis. The mechanism remains open for further investigation.

Integrating Local Wisdom And Modern Technology To Address Society 5.0 Era Challenges In Culture
Authors: Luqmi Fitra Zahrotul , Abas Erjati , Istiana Istiana , Karmila Karmila
Published: January 2025

The Society 5.0 era presents significant challenges for the preservation of local culture in the midst of the rapid flow of modern technology. Cultural institutions are required to reorient their role in integrating local wisdom with technology to answer the needs of the digital community. This research aims to analyze the adaptation and transformation strategies of cultural institutions in the face of digital disruption, as well as identify effective integration models between traditional values and technological innovation. Using qualitative-descriptive research methods with a phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and documentation studies from five indigenous communities in Indonesia that have successfully integrated technology in their cultural practices. The results of the study show three main findings: cultural digitalization strengthens people's cultural identity through wider access and revitalization of traditional values, technology adoption increases community socio-economic resilience through the creation of new jobs and market expansion, and the integration of traditional ecological knowledge with modern technology creates an effective sustainable development model. However, challenges such as the digital divide, cultural resistance, and intellectual property rights protection still need to be addressed. The implications of this study include the need for policies that support cultural digitalization by respecting indigenous rights, increasing digital literacy, and a cross-sectoral collaborative approach to ensure the successful integration of technology with local cultures. This research makes a strategic contribution in building a harmonious framework between cultural preservation and technological advancement, as well as supporting the creation of an adaptive society without losing its cultural identity.

SEXUAL HARASSMENT IN BANGLADESH: A NOTE ON LEGAL AND JUDICIAL INTERVENTION
Authors: Nigar Meher , Jariah Ainun
Published: January 2025

Experiencing sexual harassment in public space remains an everyday occurrence for women who step out of home for daily purposes. Bangladesh has adopted many women-centric laws, frustratingly, no express legal provision is in place addressing ‘sexual harassment’ comprehensively, nor is there any initiative to recognize ‘eve teasing’ as a form of sexual harassment. Moreover, in the backdrop of increasing rate of cyber violence against women, in the form of stalking, bullying, hacking, etc., there is no law that directly addresses such violence. The legal vacuum in this sector has been attempted to be mitigated by proactive judicial intervention, and till to date, the 11-point Directives of the High Court Division defining sexual harassment remain the only law to be followed and observed till adequate legislation is enacted for dealing with sexual harassment. Though the Directives mandate immediate steps to adopt specific legislation, no significant progress has been made in this area. Conversely, the neighbouring countries, like India and Pakistan, already adopted separate laws on sexual harassment and also made necessary amendments to existing relevant penal laws. In this context, this article attempts to study how existing laws address the issue of sexual harassment and how the judiciary intervened in this area, the socio-legal factors that influence the increasing rate of such occurrences, etc. Finally, it suggests taking immediate steps to protect women from sexual harassment by extending the legal coverage by amending existing laws and adopting new legislation.
The Role of Meaningfulness in Life in Overcoming the Uncertainty
Authors: Mazmanyan Marianna
Published: January 2025

Key words: uncertainty tolerance, transitivity period, VUCA-world, life meaning orientations, situational anxiety, locus of control

The article presents the results of a study conducted among the teaching staff of VSU. The results confirmed the hypothesis that the development of uncertainty tolerance can help overcome anxiety and stress that arise in conditions of transience, variability, unpredictability and uncertainty that characterize modern life. The results also allow us to conclude that the degree of meaningfulness of life plays a positive role in maintaining stress tolerance in difficult life situations. Nowadays science carries the concept of uncertainty, which is used widely, being a popular research subject for a century along with the concepts of risk, modeling, chance, probability, spontaneity. All the mentioned are recognized as essential characteristics of modern life and human cognition of his/her self and the world itself. Uncertainty is not so much an epistemological but an ontological characteristic of reality; it is associated not with a lack of information or a limited understanding of something by a person, but with the fact that, being a fundamental principle of the world order, it is subject to only partial, limited cognition.

Key words: service, lifecycle, sequence of stages, strategy, planning, management policy, value system, customers

As the world experience shows, the leading positions in competitive conditions are occupied by those organizations that more competently manage the cyclical stages, and are better versed in the methods of its implementation. The common goal of different management methods is to ensure efficiency. Today, more than ever, the ultimate goal for companies should be to create value. This problem is solved by the value-based management (VBM), which is based on the belief that the company should implement only those activities that create value for their stakeholders. The application of the customer relationship management system, CRM (customer relationship management), allows the organization to predict the customer’s behavior at a certain stage of the cycle and develop the specific strategies. Any service providing company, in the course of its activity, based on the situation, should conduct a correct approach to cycle management, with the aim of ensuring not only material, but also social benefit. Product life cycle management helps companies develop, create competitive advantages, innovative products or services, and find new promotion methods. The choice of a product life cycle model will affect the adaptation of a business to changing market conditions and, accordingly, competitiveness.

Key words: language policy, socio-cultural situation, globalization, linguistic and cultural environment, intercultural communication, state (official) language, bilingualism

The present article examines the phenomenon of Armenian-Russian bilingualism from the perspectives of historical, sociolinguistic, and cultural processes. The main focus is on the historical preconditions, starting with the intensification of Armenian-Russian relations in the 18th and 19th centuries and the subsequent impact of the language policies of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union. The research reveals the key phases of the formation and development of bilingualism in Armenia, including the institutionalization of the Russian language through educational and cultural systems, as well as its dominant role in intercultural communication during the Soviet era.
The research’s methodological approach is founded on historical-genetic analysis to identify the factors influencing language development, as well as sociolinguistic and content analyses to study contemporary linguistic processes. According to the research, a variety of challenges are affecting Armenian-Russian bilingualism at the moment, such as demographic changes, globalization and which lead to a gradual decline in the role of the Russian language in certain social contexts.
The scholarly significance of this work lies in the in-depth exploration of the mechanisms of bilingualism as crucial components of linguistic and cultural identity, as well as intercultural communication, within the context of changing geopolitical and socio-cultural conditions of the globalizing world.
М. Bulgakov’s Allusions in Н. Stepanyan’s Story “The Last Case of the Investigator”
Authors: Markosyan Gayane
Published: January 2025

The novel “The Master and Margarita”, written by M. Bulgakov, was included in a number of genuine masterpieces of Russian literature. The image of Woland is much deeper than all those images of Satan that appeared on the pages of literature. There was no such devil in the world literature before Bulgakov. It is deeper than Andreev’s Satan, Mephistopheles, and Lucifer of O. Stepanyan, who is more reminiscent of a demon.
Woland seeks to enrich people with the knowledge of what is good and what is evil. He comes to restore justice, but Lucifer and his entourage not only haven’t built anything, but also destroy what they have built. He drives people to commit the most terrible sins.
As a result, the images of devils in the novel of M. Bulgakov and in the story of O. Stepanyan are not only different from each other, but also opposed to each other. If Woland has more human or even divine features, then Lucifer appears before us in a traditional way: the main adversary of God and heavenly forces, who represents the highest personification and symbol of evil, pushes a person on the path of spiritual death, tempts and enslaves.

Contrasting Climate Change Strategies: The Political and Psychological Perspectives of Trump and Biden's Approaches
Authors: Mehreen Yaseen  , Shehzeb Ashraf  , Iqra zafar  , M. Muzammil Saeed
Published: January 2025

The climate change strategy of former President Donald Trump and current President Joe Biden can be compared and assessed by both political and psychological outcomes. During the years under Trump, climate policies involved a persistent denial and repudiation of most mainstream climate science, in which significant efforts were implemented for rolling back environmental laws and regulations, withdrawal of Paris Agreement, and mainly advocating fossil fuel industries. Increased doubt and skepticism about the severity of climate change in the United States and throughout the world resulted from these programs' intense political controversy and broad criticism from environmentalists and foreign leaders. By re-entering the Paris Agreement, pledging to meet aggressive renewable energy targets, and positioning climate action as a public health necessity, Biden's government, on the other hand, has made climate change a top priority. It will describe how Trump's denial and deregulation of climate policy have filled the environment with anger, powerlessness, and fear for environmentalists and the general public. However, Biden's more expansive and assertive climate plan generates a sense of urgency, responsibility, and hope among environmental activists and young Americans. This study explores the influence of leaders on public opinion about climate change, thereby taking the psychological approach regarding climate action from global to local political issue. This paper analyzes what follows from the difference between encouragement and discouragement of the government from promoting group work toward solving climate issues by affecting public trust and participation in policy processes. This research also identifies the connection between social forces and prevailing trends of change.

Published: January 2025

The concept of All Gender Facilities has sparked controversy in many countries, particularly due to user concerns about the presence of other genders in private spaces such as changing rooms. This study aims to explore the acceptance of All Gender Facilities among Jabodetabek residents, focusing on their use in toilets and changing rooms. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study method, the research seeks to understand and analyze public responses influenced by social and cultural norms. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with eight purposively selected informants. The findings reveal that awareness and initial experiences with All Gender Facilities are shaped by media exposure and personal experiences when using such facilities. Security and cleanliness, encompassing the design and management of the space, are key factors influencing user privacy and comfort. Cultural norms significantly impact the acceptance of All Gender Facilities, emphasizing their role in societal resistance or approval. Support and neutrality toward All Gender Facilities are conditional, reflecting varying perspectives. The multicultural community in Jabodetabek demonstrates resistance to All Gender Facilities based on cultural and religious considerations, yet from a functional standpoint, these facilities are seen as acceptable.
Legal Review of the Validity of Electronic Deeds in International Business Transactions: An Indonesian Notary's Perspective
Authors: Wulandari Mega
Published: January 2025

The development of digital technology has encouraged the use of Actelectronic in international business transactions. However, the validity of electronic activities is still a legal issue, especially in Indonesia, where regulations are not fully in line with international standards such as the UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Commerce. This study aims to analyze the validity of electronic deeds in international business transactions through the perspective of Indonesian notaries to identify existing challenges, as well as provide recommendations for regulatory harmonization. This research uses a normative juridical method with a legal and regulatory approach, a study of legal doctrine, and an analysis of international standards related to electronic transactions. Primary data were obtained from regulatory studies such as the ITE Law and the Notary Position Law, while the data secondary comes from international standards such as UNCITRAL Model Law and eIDAS. The results of the study show that although electronic deeds are recognized by the ITE Law as a valid legal evidence tool, their application in cross-border transactions is constrained by inconformities with the Notary Position Law, which still requires physical presence and manual signatures. In addition, the lack of integration with international standards and inadequate cybersecurity infrastructure are also major obstacles. The discussion highlighted the importance of harmonization of national regulations with international standards.

Legality of Employing Artificial Intelligence for Writing Academic Papers in Education
Authors: Kotsis Konstantinos T.
Published: January 2025

Including artificial intelligence (AI) in academic writing has spurred a critical review of its ethical and legal ramifications in learning environments. As companies embrace AI tools like ChatGPT, questions about authorship, intellectual property, and academic integrity have become central concerns that need careful examination, as institutions do. This paper explores the changing definition of AI and its ability to execute tasks usually connected with human intelligence, generating serious ques-tions about originality and ethical standards in academic work. The conversation emphasizes the need for educational institutions to create explicit structures that handle the complexity of AI-assisted writing preserving academic integrity and encouraging creative ideas. Underlined in the paper are ethical conundrums created by AI-generated content, especially concerning openness, accuracy, and bias potential. It questions who owns AI-generated works and how conventional ideas of creative agency must be reassessed because of these developments, so challenging the muddy waters of authorship and intellectual property rights. Beyond only legal concerns, the implications of AI’s presence in academic writing force a review of pedagogical approaches and the possible effects on critical thinking and independent research skills among students. In the end, this work supports a sensible strategy that welcomes AI’s transforming power while protecting the fundamental values of academic integrity and rigor. It asks teachers, lawyers, and legislators to work together to negotiate AI’s complex legal terrain in academia so that the educational experience stays strong and morally sound for the next generations.
