Stronnictwo Demokratyczne w świetle teorii demokracji Giovanniego Sartoriego. Analiza politologiczna w ujęciu systemowym
Authors: Schupke Stanisław
Published: June 2020

W niniejszym artykule na podstawie przeanalizowanego materiału badawczego została podjęta próba naukowego odniesienia problematyki systemu i struktury partii politycznej (na przykładzie Stronnictwa Demokratycznego) do teorii demokracji Giovanniego Sartoriego. W konsekwencji tak przyjętego założenia badawczego należy uznać, że przemiany polskiego systemu partyjnego dokonywały się pod wpływem ideowym dyskursu (także naukowego) dotyczącego demokracji liberalnej. Poza tym w początkowym okresie kształtowania się polskiego systemu partyjnego po wydarzeniach 1989 roku polskie partie polityczne ustosunkowywały się do demokracji i procesu demokratyzacji w ujęciu idealistycznym i wyidealizowanym. Ujęcie to stało się źródłem rozbudowanych rozwiązań normatywnych i wzorców zachowań (na płaszczyźnie gospodarczej, politycznej i społecznej), często bardzo trudnych do zrealizowania w polskiej praktyce politycznej. W tym kontekście obecność Stronnictwa Demokratycznego w polskim systemie partyjnym stała się elementem tożsamości tak rozumianego systemu partyjnego/politycznego Polski, zgodnie z regułą ciągłości i zmiany, o charakterze funkcjonalnym i dysfunkcjonalnym.
Nowatorstwo i eksperyment w poezji późnego baroku
Authors: Pieczyński Maciej
Published: June 2020

Religious poetry of the Saxon times has often in the past prompted quite radical, and at the same time emotional, valuations coming from scholars. Its distinctness from the literature of the preceding periods was also frequently underscored. The present article attempts to expand upon the issue of novelty and unique features of the works by late Baroque religious poets (Stanisław Brzeżański, Franciszek Gniewisz, Karol Mikołaj Juniewicz, Hieronin Falęcki, and Józef Baka). What is assumed to have been characteristic of the said literature is the endeavour at maximal persuasive efficacy and presence of deep internal tensions between christianitas and humanitas.
Oktawa w epice historycznej wieków dawnych – wybrane problemy (na przykładzie Pamiętnego uprowadzenia wojska z cieśni bukowińskiej… Stanisława Wincentego Jabłonowskiego)
Authors: Piątek Marcin
Published: June 2020

The article is divided into two parts. The first one describes a career that ottava rima had in seventeenth-century heroic narrative poems. What the author references are the most valid opinions by scholars of the Polish verse pertaining to ottava rima, in addition to the opinions by the poets who struggled to write in this challenging stanza form. Part two of the article analyses selected stanzas (ottavas) from the narrative poem Pamiętne uprowadzenie wojska z cieśni bukowińskiej… (1745) by Stanisław Wincenty Jabłonowski. Aside from versological questions, also the most important problems are indicated that relate to editing and punctuation of the Jabłonowski’s ottava rima.

Przezwyciężanie kryzysu w procesie integracji europejskiej, poprzez zmiany regulacji dotyczących rozliczalności w podejmowaniu decyzji w UE, w wymiarze makroekonomicznym i fiskalnym
Authors: Sroka Anna
Published: June 2020

This article concerns the impact of the crisis on the manner in which the European Union functions, with particular attention paid to the issue of accountability. The analysis of particular legal solutions adopted since the eruption of the economic crisis enables capturing of the changes that have occurred with respect to the functioning of democracy in the EU. This facilitates the search for an answer to the following research questions: during times of crisis, do transformations lead to improvements in the quality of democracy, or do they rather deepen the existing democratic deficit, particularly in respect of accountability? Are modifications to mechanisms governing the functioning of democracy in the EU helping to overcome both shortand long-term crises in the integration process? In order to find answers to these questions, an analysis has been performed of the changes made to regulations addressing governance in the European Union in the macroeconomic and fiscal sphere implemented between 2008 and 2013.
La diplomacia cultural de la España de Franco
Authors: Orella Martínez José Luis
Published: June 2020

The post-war period was a difficult time for Spain because of its international isolation. The need to improve its image and to be admitted to the UN lead to the instrumentalisation of culture as a parallel diplomacy that allowed to establish the necessary relationships. ICH, BFHI, CEDI and OCAU activities helped form groups favourable to Spain, from which it benefited with restoring diplomatic presence. Pragmatism and the absence of politicisation of international relations of Spain in Hispanic-American and Arab areas are consequences of the work of “cultural ambassadors”.
Dezintegracja, konsolidacja czy status quo? Kryzys modernizacji w Unii Europejskiej a poszukiwanie nowego paradygmatu integracji
Authors: Ławniczak Kamil
Published: June 2020

“Taking ideas seriously” means not only to consider their causal and constitutive role in the study of social phenomena, but also to analyse how and why certain ideas gain or lose prominence within political institutions and discourses. One approach to these issues builds upon the notion of policy paradigms, which influence the results of policy-making process by shaping the political actors’ understanding of problems that need to be solved and limiting available policy options. This article attempts to show how the ability to modernise the EU governance within the paradigm of European integration heading towards “an ever closer union among the peoples of Europe” has been called into question by the crisis which began in 2008. Two potential new paradigms of integration are considered: first one suggests controlled disintegration and differentiation of EU structures, second one proposes a reinterpretation of federalism as a way to reconsolidate the Union.
The Influence of Melt-Mixing Conditions and State of Dispersion on Crystallisation, Rheology and Mechanical Properties of PCL/Sepiolite Nanocomposites
Authors: Eriksson M. , Meuwissen M. , Peijs T. , Goossens H.
Published: June 2020

It is generally accepted that the benefit of anisotropic nanofiller addition is strongly dependent on the state of the dispersion of these fillers in a polymer matrix. In this paper the influence of melt-compounding conditions on the dispersion of a needle-like clay, i. e. sepiolite, in poly(∊-caprolactone) (PCL) is investigated. The crystallisation behavior as well as the rheological and mechanical properties of PCL/sepiolite nanocomposites with filler contents up to 5 wt.% are studied. By changing the screw speed during melt-mixing in a micro-compounder, the state of dispersion was varied, with the higher speed leading to better dispersion and breakdown of the sepiolite agglomerates or bundles. Rheometry showed that better dispersed nanocomposites displayed an increase in viscosity due to network formation at slightly higher filler loadings. Likewise, better dispersed composites showed a modest increase in crystallisation temperature at low filler content, accompanied by a decrease in both nucleation efficiency and degree of crystallisation at higher loadings. Better dispersed nanocomposite systems also showed superior mechanical properties, particularly at higher filler loadings. However, overall the reinforcing efficiency of sepiolite in all nanocomposites was relatively low. This was mainly a consequence of the relatively low filler aspect ratio and the simultaneous breakup of sepiolite needles together with a breakdown of bundles during compounding.
Utilisation of Waste Plantain (Musa Paradisiaca) Peels and Waste Polystyrene in the Development of Reinforced Polymer Composites
Authors: Adeniyi A. G. , Abdulkareem S. A. , Ighalo J. O. , Onifade D. V.
Published: June 2020

Plantain (Musa paradisiaca) is a widely cultivated plant in Nigeria which generates lots of residues (such as its peels) during its consumption. This study investigated the tensile, microstructural and moisture absorption properties of plantain peel reinforced polystyrene composites. The filler composition was varied between 0 wt% and 40 wt% and all analyses were done as per ASTM standards. The force at break and Young's modulus increased with increasing filler content and had maximum values of 405 N and 380 MPa respectively. The elongation at break point of plantain peel powder reinforced bio-composite reduced with increase in filler content, indicating that the biomass fillers led to a reduction in the deformability of the composites due to a poor transfer of stress at the weak fiber-plastic interphase. It was furthermore observed that composites with higher filler content were more susceptible to moisture diffusivity due to the hydrophilic nature of the filler powder. Microstructural analysis revealed that a more uniform distribution of the plantain fiber occurs at 40% fiber content compared to those of higher filler content.
Work of the National Presidential Boarding School on Establishing Linguistic Rights and Filling Ethno-Cultural Needs of Students
Authors: Iksanova Lidiya Gennadevna
Published: June 2020

The article deals with the specifics of the educational institutions' activities on establishing language rights and filling ethno-cultural needs of students on the example of the National presidential boarding school for gifted children. Active debates of the issue of learning native languages, reducing the hours for teaching national languages in the curriculum of secondary schools, downplaying spiritual and moral education and “giving up positions” to the process of digitalization, the search for solutions and new models of “national schools” determines the relevance of issue studied. It is noted that due to the fact that Russia is a multi-ethnic state and almost all schools are multilingual and multicultural as a result of the dynamic process of migration of parents, schools have to solve the problems of implementing educational programs independently. Also, it is emphasized that since the process of establishing the linguistic rights and filling ethno-cultural needs of students of different nationalities, their relationship with each other entails conflicts and withdrawal to the world of social networks and adolescent groups, educational activities require a careful study. Therefore, the attention of researchers to the problem of establishing the linguistic rights and filling ethno-cultural needs of students causes interest in the problem of managing this activity.
The ai, of the article is to develop and justify organizational and pedagogical conditions that contribute to the effective management of educational institutions’ activity on establishing linguistic rights and filling ethno-cultural needs of students.
Research methods: study of the literature on the issue studied, the pedagogical experience of the author and teaching staff of schools, analysis of educational programs and curricula.
Results. As a result of the research, we identified the main gaps in the existing system of management of educational activities on establishing the linguistic rights and filling ethno-cultural needs of students, the lack of a flexible management model with an adaptive organizational structure of management and appropriate organizational and pedagogical conditions. An effective model for managing the school's activities on establishing the linguistic rights and filling ethno-cultural needs of students is proposed in the article.
Urine Output Measurement by a Novel Electronic Urinometer is much more Accurate than by Conventional Urinometer
Authors: Rott David , Rott David , Hay Ilan , Klempfner Robert
Published: June 2020

Introduction: Assessment of urine output in hospitalized patients or those undergoing complex surgery is
essential for preventing Acute Kidney Injury and increased mortality. Currently, measurements of urine
output are made by visually inspecting the volume of urine that accumulates in a bag attached to a catheter
which resides in the bladder by way of a manual urinometer. Several electronic urinometers have been tested
but have not been clinically proven or accepted. We report preliminary results of a novel Electronic
Urinometer (EU) and compared its accuracy to a conventional Manual Urinometer (MU).
Methods: The study included 22 consecutive ICU patients whose urine output was collected with a foley
catheter. Urine output was measured for all patients by EU as well as by MU. Both measurements were
compared to analysis of the volume in a Graduated Cylinder (GC).
Results: The EU was highly accurate in measurement of both urine volume and urine flow with an average
deviation from GC 4 ± 3.0% vs 17 ± 23% for the MU (P<0.01).
Conclusion: This study showed that measuring urine output in ICU patients by an EU is more accurate than
conventional MU.

Published: June 2020

Salinity can affect cell division and cause chromosomal abnormalities such as the formation of micronuclei, chromosome stickiness, c-mitosis and multipolar anaphases. Plants react to salt stress with morphological, biochemical, physiological, cellular and molecular adjustments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different leaf extract concentrations of purple lettuce on the cytogenetic activity of lettuce roots, cv. Regina, from seeds subjected to salt stress. Four extract concentrations of purple lettuce (0, 50, 100 and 150 g lettuce leaves L-1 water)and five concentrations of sodium chloride (0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 mM) were tested, constituting 20 treatments, with distilled water for a negative control. The analyses were of mitotic index (MI), phase index of mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase) and the presence of chromosomal aberrations. Salt reduces the mitotic index and all index phases of the lettuce roots. The purple lettuce extract does not affect the mitotic index, reduces the cell index in prophase and increases the cells in telophase of lettuce roots. The purple lettuce extract and salt cause chromosomal abnormalities in lettuce root cells; however, a smaller number of mutations is found by applying 100 g L-1 extract.

O presente trabalho busca investigar quais as percepções dos docentes participantes de uma atividade formativa e sua possível contribuição sobre seu desenvolvimento profissional. Desta forma buscamos investigar quais as potencialidades e fragilidades a partir do olhar docente, em uma atividade de formação continuada de longa duração e suas contribuições para o desenvolvimento da profissão. Para tal, trazemos as percepções de nove professores alfabetizadores participantes do Pacto Nacional pela Alfabetização na Idade Certa - PNAIC, durante quatro anos na cidade de Itaqui-RS. Usamos a entrevista semiestruturada como corpus de coleta dos dados e nossa análise dos resultados se deu pela Análise Textual Discursiva, onde foram elaboradas a construção de categorias e meta-textos. Os resultados apontam que o professor se sente motivado participando de um processo de formação onde ele é o ator principal e onde há uma troca de experiências entre os pares. No entanto, nem todos os professores sentem-se à vontade em participar de atividades de formação, pois ressaltam que algumas formações se encontram afastadas do contexto escolar. De acordo com os professores, foi possível perceber que depois de findada a formação, há a necessidade de esta ter uma continuidade e acompanhamento na escola, para que o mesmo possa ter suporte e dar prosseguimento aos processos desenvolvidos na formação. Caso contrário, a formação se limitará à ressignificações dos participantes, mas que não são plenamente transformadas em ações no desenvolvimento da sua prática pedagógica.

Personal, Powerful, Political
Authors: Vanner Catherine , Dugal Anuradha
Published: June 2020

“Today I met my role model,” tweeted climate change activist Greta Thunberg on 25 February 2020, captioning a picture of herself with girls’ education activist Malala Yousafzai, who also tweeted the picture, proclaiming that Greta was “the only friend I would skip school for.” The proclamations of mutual admiration illustrate a form of solidarity between the two most famous girl activists, who are often pointed to as examples of the power of the individual girl activist in spite of their intentionally collective approaches that connect young activists and civil society organizations around the world. These girl activists have garnered worldwide attention for their causes but have also been subject to problematic media representations that elevate voices of privilege and/or focus on girl activists as exceptional individuals (Gordon and Taft 2010; Hesford 2014), often obscuring the movements behind them. For this reason, this special issue explores activism networks by, for, and with girls and young women, examining and emphasizing girls’ activism in collective and collaborative spaces.
Reflections on Expanding Girls’ Political Capital at the United Nations
Authors: Bent Emily
Published: June 2020

Stories about girl activism circulate as exceptional narratives of individual girl power causing intergenerational partnerships and community collaborations to become invisible and apparently unnecessary to girl activist efforts. At the same time, practitioner-scholars attest that sharing authentic stories about intergenerational feminist praxis is difficult to do since it requires us to write with intentional vulnerability exposing the failures and tensions inherent to girl activism networks. In this article, I provide an autoethnographic exploration of the intergenerational processes involved with organizing Girls Speak Out for the International Day of the Girl at the United Nations. I draw inspiration from Lauren J. Silver’s methodological remix of youth-centered activism, and in doing so, reassess the impact and experience of leveraging girls’ political voices in spaces of normative power.
Sakai Magara
Authors: Hartley Barbara
Published: June 2020

In this article, I profile the activism of 18-year-old Sakai Magara (1903–1985). I focus in particular on her role in the Sekirankai (Red Wave Society), which was a short-lived women’s political organization formed in April 1921 and aligned directly with socialist and anti-capitalist worker issues. My discussion draws on three principal sources: contemporaneous accounts of the Society; writings by women with whom Magara collaborated; and the words of Magara herself. I pay attention to Magara’s contribution to Sekirankai, the influences on the development of her activism, and the barriers to political participation by girls and women in Japan.
A Review on Fear Appeals in Social Marketing: Setting Future Research Agenda
Authors: Ahmad Farooq , Hamid Syed Ali Raza , Qaisar Muhammad Nawaz
Published: June 2020

In marketing as well as in social marketing communication, fear appeals have been used as persuasive tools to influence behavior change and have extensively been used for various behavioral change programs. A comprehensive literature review was conducted related to fear appeals in the domain of social marketing from scientific journals of repute. Such type of systematic literature review on fear appeals in social marketing has not been extensively conducted to set future research to set agenda for bringing sustained behavior changes. Although fear appeals have influenced behavior changes, they were not being proved effective for a longer period. The group centered approaches using the group as a unit of analysis has shown better results as compared to one-way communication based on emotional fear appeals. This research paper sets an agenda for future research using group centered and participatory paradigm to make fear appeals more effective in the long run.

Digitalization of banking activities in the E-COMMERCE market: new opportunities for the development of the credit and financial sector at the present stage
Authors: Bychkova I. I.
Published: June 2020

The article analyzes the changed consumer preferences in the conditions of COVID-2019 coronavirus disease, and also defines the prospects and directions for further development of digital banking services in the e-commerce market. Proposals are formulated to increase the level of user satisfaction with digital banking services in the conditions of self-isolation in the e-commerce market. The social consequences in the banking sector should be reflected, accompanying the digital transformation, in the shifting points of consumer preference and banking services aimed at providing services. Ignoring these changes will inevitably lead to lost financial benefits for Russian banks in the e-commerce market, as well as the emergence of new non-banking players. The practical value lies in offering new niches for using digital banking services within the framework of changing customer preferences.
Redes sociales y protesta política: Un análisis del rol moderador del estatus socioeconómico y la pertenencia a grupos políticos
Authors: Zumárraga-Espinosa Marcos
Published: June 2020

En esta investigación se examina la asociación entre el uso político de redes sociales y la participación en actividades de protesta política a nivel individual, así como el efecto moderador que sobre esta relación ejercen el estatus socioeconómico y la pertenencia a grupos políticos. Para probar las hipótesis planteadas se emplearon datos de 1520 encuestas aplicadas en Quito (Ecuador) en el año 2018. Los principales resultados son los siguientes: i) el uso de redes sociales (Facebook, Twitter) para el consumo de información y la expresión política influye positivamente sobre el comportamiento de protesta; ii) este efecto movilizador se intensifica en las personas de menor nivel socioeconómico y con mayor grado de participación en agrupaciones políticas offline; iii) la fuerza de las relaciones de moderación descritas se modifica dependiendo de la plataforma digital que se emplee políticamente. Finalmente se discuten las implicaciones de los hallazgos en torno al debate sobre redes sociales, comunicación política y democracia.

The Japanese pumpkin known as "Tetsukabuto" is the result of crossing selected lines of squash. Squashes are highly susceptible to weed interference due to slow initial growth, requiring more considerable attention as to their control. Studies focusing on the losses caused by weeds to Japanese pumpkin hybrids are scarce. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the influence of weed control on the fruit yield of Japanese pumpkin hybrid cultivars. A randomized block design with four replications in a 3x4 factorial scheme was used. Three cultivars (Corina F1, Triunfo F1, and Takayama F1) and four weed control periods, without weed control, weed control from 0 to 30 and from 0 to 60 days after transplanting (DAT), and weed control throughout the crop cycle (continuous control) were evaluated. The harvest was carried out at 105 DAT, and it was evaluated population density of the weed community, yield, fruit diameter, fruit fresh mass, number of fruits per plant, pulp thickness, and internal fruit cavity thickness. The weed control from 0 to 60 DAT and continuous weed control resulted in the lowest weed population density and weed dry matter. The weed control from 0 to 60 DAT provided a higher number of fruits per plant, fruit diameter, fruit fresh mass, and thicker pulp. The highest development and fruit yield of Japanese pumpkin hybrids was observed when the plants were free from weed interference until 60 days after transplanting.

Moreover, in order to improve the quality of the personnel involved in the mission’s implementation, the government also set out specific methods to train and foster their professional skills and qualification. Therefore, it lead to the step-by-step changes, which went towards making it more effective and professional, in organizational system and the quality of human resources who drafted and promulgated the legal documents of the Second Republic of South Vietnam. Although the RVN regime collapsed, it provided historical experience from which we can learn and then utilize in constructing the better legal documents nowadays. The article aims to analyze and clarify the struture of professional organization and the training courses provided for the civil servant participating in building the legal documents during the regime of the Second Republic of South Viet Nam (1967-1975).
Source Domain “war” in American English business news discourse
Authors: Truc Tran Thi Thanh
Published: June 2020

Conceptual metaphor can be understood as the mapping between two conceptual domains whereas the linguistic metaphor is the linguistic expression of the mapping. Conceptual metaphor is the system of ideas mapped according to the perception of human being about life and expressed by linguistic metaphor. Conceptual metaphor with source domain WAR is one of the most common metaphors used in American English business news discourse. In conceptual metaphor model BUSINESS IS WAR, it can be found many words related to war such as ‘attack’, ‘withdraw’, ‘invade’, ‘besiege’, ‘fight’, ‘win’, ‘defense’, etc... which are used in business news discourse. Through the mapping of this metaphor model, companies can be seen as the military in a war; the businessmen correspond to the soldiers in a fight, and the battles are conceived as competitions on price and market share. This result is similar to the conclusion about conceptual metaphor of ARGUMENT IS WAR by Lakoff & Johnson, which mentions that the use of war metaphors to understand the source domain of ARGUMENT is not accidental. The authors argue that while there is no physical battle, there is a verbal battle and the structure of a debate (including attack, defense, counterattack, etc.) reflects this.
