Minimizing and Denying Racial Violence: Insights from the Québec Mosque Shooting
Authors: Mahrouse Gada
Published: December 2018

On 29 January 2017, a twenty-seven-year-old white man named Alexandre Bissonette entered a mosque in a suburb of Québec City and opened fire, killing six people. Focusing on Canadian media reports, this article examines two seemingly incongruent responses to this heinous massacre. First, despite Bissonnette’s unambiguous and purposeful targeting of Muslims, the public and the courts still debated whether this massacre was racially motivated. Second, when members of the Muslim community commented on the massacre and the impact that it had had on them, there appeared to be a type of restraint in the ways in which they expressed their fears and frustrations and in the ways in which they addressed the issue of anti-Muslim racism. How do we understand these incongruences? This article draws upon Sherene Razack’s seminal scholarship on public grief, national mythologies, and anti-Muslim racism in Canada, alongside studies on public expressions of emotions to make sense of the role that race played in the responses by the Muslim community, the politicians, the courts, and the accused.
Investigation of the Tempering Effect during Nitriding*
Authors: Hoja S. , Hoffmann F. , Steinbacher M. , Zoch H.-W.
Published: December 2018

Nitriding is a widely used treatment to increase the performance of unalloyed and alloyed steels. Because nitriding majorly affects the hardness of the surface region of the material it is common to perform a quenching and tempering treatment before nitriding in order to get a suitable core hardness and microstructure for application. The hardness from pre-heat treatment is nearly not affected by the following nitriding process if the temperature of tempering exceeds the nitriding temperature more than ca. 30 °C. Nevertheless in some cases where a high nitriding depth, i. e. 0.8 mm and more, is necessary, the nitriding parameters temperature and time can affect the material's state, which was achieved by tempering, even though the nitriding temperature is lower than the temperature of the tempering treatment.

The current investigations concern the tempering behaviour of typical nitriding and heat treatable steels. In nitriding experiments with different treatment temperature and time the stability of the pre-heat treatment state was investigated and the Hollomon-Jaffe parameter was used to describe the effect of temperature and time on the material's properties. Furthermore it was shown, that the Hollomon-Jaffe parameter is also suitable to predict the tempering effect of a long time nitriding process.
Introduction
Authors: Magnussen Anne
Published: December 2018

The introduction offers an overview of English-language and Spanish-language
scholarship about Spanish comics since 2000. This research is typically
concerned with one of four main chronological periods, i.e. early
comics history 1875-1939; the Francoist dictatorship 1939-1975; the Political
Transition 1970-1985; and Democratic Spain from the early 1980s, and some
of its recurrent themes are memory, gender, regional identities and history,
and/or a focus on social or educational comics. The articles in the two
special issues on Spanish comics (11.1 and 11.2) almost all relate to these
periods and themes in different ways, and together they show that comics
scholarship about Spanish comics is a fascinating field, and one that offers
plenty of opportunities for further study.
Therapeutic Journeys in Contemporary Spanish Graphic Novels
Authors: Mohring Agatha
Published: December 2018

María y yo by Miguel and María Gallardo, Arrugas by Paco Roca and Una
posibilidad entre mil by Cristina Durán and Miguel Ángel Giner Bou are
contemporary Spanish graphic novels that can be considered pathographies.
This article shows how they use the metaphor of the journey to
deconstruct social representations and challenge preconceived ideas about
autism, Alzheimer’s disease and cerebral palsy. By making readers travel to
the unknown territory of differences and diseases, these works help them
to discover and understand alterity. I also study how the authors use techniques
specific to travel guides to explain these disorders, and interrogate
the extent to which creating and reading those pathographies can have a
curative dimension. This will lead to questioning the concept of the therapeutic
journey.
Sacred Places in the Nenets Traditional Culture
Authors: Kharyuchi Galina
Published: December 2018

The Nenets people have various forms of worshipping
spirits in their sacred landscapes. The article examines the history,
definitions, and classifications of forms of worship of the Nenets
sacred places (khebidia ia). Cult structures (khekhe) include objects of
nature as well as effigies of various deities installed at sacred sites or
residential areas. Images of a master spirit carved in stone or wood
(siadei) mark tribal or general significant sites of worship. The main
activities carried out on these sacred sites relate to seasonal rituals of
the life cycle and to subsistence practices such as fishing and hunting.
The most important of them were sacrificial rituals.

Authors: Bielecki Marek
Published: December 2018

Świadkowie Jehowy są trzecim pod względem liczebności związkiem wyznaniowym w Polsce. Według wewnętrznych danych w Polsce przynależy do nich niemal 120 tys. członków. Przedmiotem niniejszego opracowania są kwestie związane ze statusem osoby duchownej w związku wyznaniowym „Świadkowie Jehowy w Polsce”. Sama doktryna Świadków Jehowy w tym zakresie przeszła znaczącą ewolucję od całkowitej negacji do wyodrębnienia struktur duchowieństwa. Obecnie status osoby duchownej posiadają nie tylko osoby zajmujące się głoszeniem, ale również członkowie pracujący fizycznie w strukturach związku. Wprowadzając zmiany świadkowie Jehowy, zachowali dużą dozę pragmatyzmu. Ułatwia to w znacznym stopniu ich funkcjonowanie i należy uznać za krok we właściwym kierunku. Tekst artykułu został podzielony na trzy zasadnicze części, dotyczą one stanowiska świadków Jehowy w sprawie istnienia stanu duchownego przed 2014 r., statusu osoby duchownej w świetle obowiązujących regulacji prawnych i orzecznictwa, a także prawa wewnętrznego związku wydanego po 2014 roku.

Towards Personalized Rehabilitation for Gait Impairments in Parkinson’s Disease
Authors: Nonnekes Jorik , Nieuwboer Alice
Published: December 2018

Non-pharmacological interventions are essential in the management of gait impairments in Parkinson’s disease. The evidence for these interventions is growing rapidly. However, studies evaluating these interventions do generally evaluate a one-size-fits-all concept, and do usually not distinguish between subgroups, treatment dose and delivery mode. For two main reasons, this approach will not reach the full potential of gait rehabilitation. First, non-pharmacological interventions (e.g., external cueing) can improve gait in certain patients, but have no effect or sometimes even exacerbate gait deficits in others. Second, the success and benefit of gait rehabilitation relies on therapy adherence and training intensity achieved, and multi-target therapy not tailored to the individual runs the risk of hitting nothing. Hence, to apply non-pharmacological interventions in an individualized and evidence-based manner, clinicians and therapists need to know which patient characteristics predict the efficacy of various training modes and what type of training delivery works best. Current evidence is not sufficient to develop such personalized rehabilitation programs. In this viewpoint, however, we describe how tailored use of gait rehabilitation can be reached within a 20-year time frame.
Continuous Drug Delivery Aiming Continuous Dopaminergic Stimulation in Parkinson’s Disease
Authors: van Wamelen Daniel J. , Grigoriou Sotirios , Chaudhuri K. Ray , Odin Per
Published: December 2018

Continuous dopaminergic stimulation in Parkinson’s disease (PD) has several advantages over pulsatile, non-continuous, stimulation. These therapies currently consist of pump-based and transcutaneous therapies and are based on a more constant delivery of the dopaminergic drug resulting in continuous dopaminergic stimulation and a more stable treatment effect. Several clinical and experimental observations have shown that continuous stimulation of dopaminergic receptors induces fewer complications, such as dyskinesia, compared to pulsatile stimulation. Currently available non-oral pharmacological continuous therapies in PD include the transdermal Rotigotine (RTG) patch, infusion therapies with Apomorphine and Intrajejunal Levodopa (IJLI) and the Rivastigmine patch. Here we aim to provide a concise review of these current therapies and discuss ongoing and future developments of continuous non-oral pharmacological dopaminergic therapies in PD.

Perception of competition in the process of socialist - oriented market economy regime completion in Vietnam
Authors: Nguyen Trong Thanh
Published: December 2018

After nearly 30 years of economic reforms, theories on competition in the development of the Vietnam economy have fundamental changes. Competition has been recognized and becomes a driving force for the development of the economy. However, monopoly, market domination of SOEs and inequality in business still exist in many sectors of the Vietnam economy. One of the important causes leading to this problem is to enhance the role of the state sector in the way of economic development. This study proposes to keep changing theoretical thinking about competition and the role of SOEs; to determine the areas of the state monopoly; and to abolish the monopoly of SOEs in order to perfect the institutions of socialist-oriented market economy in Vietnam.

Authors: Janini Tiago Cappi , Celegatto Mário Augusto Quinteiro
Published: December 2018

Tendo em vista a dificuldade de o Poder Público efetivar os direitos sociais constitucionalmente positivados, o sistema jurídico tem outorgado competência para outros atores auxiliarem na implementação de políticas públicas. Nesse sentido, o Ministério Público torna-se importante figura, devido às suas atribuições. Aí surge o problema desta pesquisa: o Ministério Público tem competência para implementar ou auxiliar na implementação de políticas públicas? O objetivo específico desta pesquisa é verificar a hipótese de que o Ministério Público pode atuar na implementação de políticas públicas, utilizando-se especialmente o compromisso de ajustamento de condutas. Os objetivos gerais são: identificar o conceito de políticas públicas, analisar os óbices alegados pelo Poder Executivo para implementar essas medidas, o Ministério Público e seus objetivos estratégicos, e, por fim, demonstrar os desdobramentos da atuação do parquet na efetivação das políticas públicas por meio da realização de compromisso de ajustamento de conduta. Utilizando-se do método dedutivo, conclui-se que o compromisso de ajustamento de conduta firmado pelo parquet é ferramenta de prevenção e resolução extrajudicial de conflitos envolvendo interesses transindividuais e contribui na implementação de políticas públicas que visem efetivar os direitos sociais.

The prevalence of chronic pancreatitis in patients with the first diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis
Authors: Todoriko L. D. , Semianiv I. O.
Published: December 2018

Despite the reduction in the incidence of tuberculosis, the side effects of antimycobacterial drugs limit the conduction of a complete chemotherapy. They often develop upon comorbid pancreatic lesion.

Analysis has shown that chronic pancreatitis is observed in 22.2% of cases. It is found that lesions of the pancreas occur 1.7 times more often in patients with resistant forms of tuberculosis than in patients with more sensitive forms.

Lack of proper attention to comorbidity from hepato-pancreatic-biliary system leads to the development of adverse reactions to tuberculosis treatment, which in the future may lead to a temporary cancellation of antituberculous drugs, development of drug resistance and ineffective treatment.

Authors: Vahrushev Y. M. , Lebedev A. A.
Published: December 2018

The aim is to research the clinical features, functional state of duodenum among patients with chronic pancreatitis and accompanying duodenostasis.

Materials and methods. The clinical course of chronic pancreatitis with accompanying duodenostasis (85 cases) and isolated chronic pancreatitis (56 cases) has been studied. Along with the general clinical data the study includes the results of exocrine pancreatic function examination (fecal elastase-1, blood alpha amylase and lipase) and its endocrine function (insulin and С-peptide). Regulating hormonal factors (gastrin and somatotropin) have been studied. Results of X-ray and endoscopic examinations, intraduodenal manometry results were used in verification of duodenostasis.

Results. In the observation group resistant pain syndrome was revealed in 93% cases (in patients with isolated pancreatitis in 57% cases) with more expressed coprological syndromes (amilorhea in 82.29%, creatorhea in 82.14%, steatorhea in 87.5% cases). In the observation group hyperperistaltic (in 88% cases of observation group and in 9.4% cases of the comparison group) and duodenal hypertension (in 22% cases of observation group and in 0.0% cases of the comparison group) were significantly more diagnosed. The phenomenon of «semolina» was revealed more frequently in observation group (in 31.9% cases of observation group and in 5% cases of the comparison group).

Among patients with chronic pancreatitis and accompanying duodenostasis the level of C-peptid decreased, while secretion of insulin, somatotropin and gastrin increased.

Conclusion. It reveals that according to the comprehensive clinical and functional investigation chronic pancreatitis with accompanying duodenostasis gets a more severe course in comparison with isolated pancreatitis.

Authors: Doğan Gizem Umut , Kabadayı Aslıhan
Published: December 2018

Internal migration movements in Turkey have been a major concern for policy makers, city planners and academicians for decades. To anticipate and regulate these movements it is crucial to understand the factors behind these movements; namely the push and pull factors specific to regions. In this study it is aimed to discover the most effective determinants of the recent internal migration movements in Turkey. With this aim the internal migration patterns in 2008-2012 are examined by provinces in the context of push and pull factors of migration using a macro approach. A panel dataset is constructed by employing the available data covering time series of the economic, social and environmental aspects of provinces as well as the provincial migration movements. With this dataset it is attempted to find out the determinants of internal migration in Turkey by using panel data analysis methods. The economic factors such as job and high income opportunities; factors related to better living conditions such as education, health care and security are expected to play a significant role in pulling internal migration.

The political migration from Turkey to the UK is marked with the catastrophic events that uprooted people such as 1971 coup d’état, 1978 massacres of Alevis in Maras and 1980 military coup d’état and is known to have peaked with the civil war in the 1990s in the Eastern provinces of Turkey. Hence the majority of the migrants from Turkey in the UK are Kurdish Alevis from eastern provinces such as Maras, Sivas, Kayseri and Tunceli. This research was conducted between September 2014 and September 2015. 60 individuals from Turkish speaking communities were recruited and semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted. Interviews were transcribed and then analysed using tools of thematic data analysis. The findings indicated stronger interest in politics and higher level of political participation by Kurdish and Alevi participants. Hence this paper offers a detailedanalysis of political interest and political participation of Kurdish/Alevi community living in London. Three key areas are: i) how they organize themselves under the umbrella of British Alevi Federation; ii) their relationship with civil society organisations and ethnic economy, iii) their activities in order to create public interest and opinion in relation to what is happening in Turkey.

By using unit level data on migration from nationally representative National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) for two points of time (1993 and 2007-08), this paper looks at the change in the level of employment related inter-state out migration in India. This paper brings out: the change occurred in the rate of inter-state out-migration between 1993 and 2007-08, the proportion of economically engaged women within the category of women who migrated due to marriage out of their state, the volume of employment related inter-state out migration of women, and finally, the propensity of Indian people for employment related inter-state out migration by their social, economic and geographical attributes. This paper finds a two times increase in inter-state out-migration in India during last one and a half decades. The increase is found even higher in many states/union territories and when we confine the analysis only to the working-age population. The gender gap has been glaring. Compared to 35 males per 1000 working age male population out-migrating across the border of their state of domicile for employment there is only 10 per 1000 working age females.  Further female migration in India is predominantly occurs within the state. Out of the total women inter-state out-migrants, 4 percent reported to have migrated exclusively for employment, while more than 80 per cent reported marriage as a reason of migration. In India, economic activity of women is under reported. Keeping this in view, we have tried to adjust the reason of migration for women. This study shows that the adjusted employment related reason of migration for inter-state women rises to 18 per cent at the all India level. The logistic regression analysis further shows that these women who reported marriage a reason of migration but actually part of the workforce belong to lower socio-economic households.
The Fairy Tale Enchantment and Metamorphoses in Fay Weldon’s Novel The Life and Loves of a She-Devil
Authors: Golban Tatiana , Karip Özge
Published: December 2018

This article focuses on enchantment and metamorphoses motifs as used by Fay Weldon in her work The Life and Loves of a She-Devil. Since the encounter with magic is frequently stimulated by the human’s desire for more, the novelist explores these possibilities in order to represent the protagonists’ quest for the self. This study aims at discussing the protagonists’ encounter with marvellous and the way it triggers the process of metamorphoses. The transformation affects primarily the protagonists’ personality, as in the process of enchantment he/she dares to disclose her/his own potential, of which he/she was unaware prior to the exposure to wonder. This article also tries to reveal how Fay Weldon uses and subverts the mechanisms of enchantment because of her awareness that the apparently inoffensive transformations can cause privilege or repression of an individual.
Pre-Pilot and Pilot Studies with Malaysian Nurses on Transnational Nurse Education
Authors: Arunasalam Nirmala Devi
Published: December 2018

This article reports on research undertaken to identify Malaysian nurses’ experiences of the part-time Transnational Higher Education post-registration top-up degree programmes delivered by one Australian and two UK universities. An interpretive paradigm and hermeneutic phenomenology and ethnographic principle of cultural interpretation research designs were used. A mixed methods approach was chosen, using both quantitative and qualitative methods. The Bristol Online Survey Questionnaire (BOS) and semi-structured interviews were initially selected to collect data. Pre-pilot testing refined the quantitative and qualitative data collection tools. However, the pilot study for BOS failed to elicit useful responses. This led to only the qualitative methodology being used to elicit participants’ views in a culturally sensitive way. The interview guide allowed nurses’ views of their experiences in relation to the research question to be obtained. This study adds to the knowledge and insight on pre-pilot and pilot studies in international multicultural studies in Asia.
Analyzing Migration Across Literature: Russian Émigré Literature in the Texts of A. Averchenko and Z. Shakhovskaya
Authors: Erinç Erdem
Published: December 2018

This paper uses historical resources, extensively, from the texts of Russian émigré authors A. Averchenko and Z. Shakhovskaya who both wrote on two of the main refugee migrant evacuations out of Russia to Istanbul. The aim was to reveal the role of literary texts in forming a better understanding of the dynamics of such evacuations. The main reason for choosing the above authors’ texts (Notes of a Fool by A. Averchenko and Life Style from the book “Takov moi vek” by Z. Shakhovskaya) was that they were written about two very different evacuations, although both took place during the same first wave of Russian migration. The first is known as General Denikin’s and the second as General Wrangel’s evacuation. The authors were also chosen because of their different age and gender. Analyzing author’s literary texts about differing types, refugee migrant evacuations provides an opportunity to evaluate the dynamics of such evacuations, as well providing an opportunity to read history from another perspective, utilizing various factors and variables such as time, generation and gender.
DATA-SURVEY: Migrant Acceptance Index: A Global Examination of the Relationship Between Interpersonal Contact and Attitudes toward Migrants
Authors: Fleming John H. , Esipova Neli , Pugliese Anita , Ray Julie , Srinivasan Rajesh
Published: December 2018

Using independently sampled Gallup World Poll survey data from 140 countries, we explored the relationship between interpersonal contact and attitudes toward migrants from a perspective not typically found in the social psychological literature. We hypothesized that respondents who report personally knowing a migrant living in their home country would be more accepting of migrants generally (using a three-item Migrant Acceptance Index (MAI) score) than respondents who do not know a migrant. Results supported our hypothesis in 134 of the 140 countries suggesting that the strong relationship between interpersonal contact and attitudes toward migrants is near-universal. We also quantified migrant acceptance at the country level, finding a wide spectrum of attitudes toward migrants. Low acceptance countries were located primarily in Eastern and Southeastern Europe and high acceptance countries were located in Northern Europe and sub-Saharan Africa. We discuss these results in the context of interpersonal contact theory (Allport, 1954) and the larger context of global migration.
Salient Beliefs that Influence the Malaysian Engineers Intention to Migrate Abroad
Authors: Ramoo Balu
Published: December 2018

Malaysia is one of the countries which face serious outflow of high skilled workers. In particular, high levels of brain drain among the engineers in the country has created a critical shortage of highly skilled workers in Malaysia. Migration studies in Malaysia in the past mostly focused on economic and socio-political aspects but migration among engineers received very little attention. The main purpose of this study is to analyse the intention of Malaysian engineers to migrate abroad from a behavioural perspective. The study also intended to identify the engineers salient beliefs about migration that could explain their intentions. The knowledge regarding the beliefs can be useful for policy makers in order to develop behavioural intervention policies to manipulate (i.e. lower) the engineers intention to move abroad. The engineers intention was analysed using the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB). Among the three direct predictors in TPB model, the engineers attitude and their subjective norms were significant in explaining the engineers intentions to move abroad. In turn, a number of salient behavioural and normative beliefs were found to be significant in explaining the engineers attitude and subjective norms.
