Big Data Analysis: How Public Response to Poverty Eradication Programs in Indonesia during COVID-19 Pandemic?
Authors: Dian Rizqi Khusnul Khotimah
Published: December 2023

Poverty eradication is the main focus of the first Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), namely 'No Poverty'. Nationally, poverty eradication is also implied in the 2020-2024 National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) on the first and second agendas. These are economic resilience and reducing disparities between regions. Various government programs are implemented to reduce poverty. The benefits obtained by the target community need to be measured to reflect the program's success and for government evaluation. Big data through social media analysis can be empowered to gain public perceptions of poverty eradication programs. Therefore, in this study, the Twitter social media analysis approach will be used to obtain public responses regarding various poverty eradication programs in Indonesia during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially the Family Hope Program (PKH or Program Keluarga Harapan), Cash Intensive Work (PKT or Padat Karya Tunai), Direct Cash Assistance (BLT or Bantuan Langsung Tunai), and Pre-Employment Cards (Kartu Prakerja). Those data were analyzed using the text mining method. The results of this study indicate that the public response generally accepts and supports the four poverty eradication programs in Indonesia. Those analysis results can be used as evaluation material and input for the Government to make the following policy.
China's Peaceful Development: A Responsible Great Power or a Good Neighbour?
Authors: Ramadhani Eryan
Published: December 2023

The rise of China has become a catchword to define China’s current position in the international system. China’s increasing power comes with responsibility. Continuing Hu Jintao’s peaceful development, Xi Jinping is committed to realising China’s responsibility as a great power. Concurrently, Xi sets out a neighbourhood diplomacy that underlines the importance of bringing development and prosperity to neighbouring states. This paper aims to investigate the way China realise the twin goals of peaceful development. The South China Sea (SCS) disputes involving China and four neighbouring Southeast Asian states serves as a case study. It is found that China's assertiveness, manifested in continued escalations and dragged-on negotiations on the Code of Conduct (COC), does not bode well for China’s peaceful development. In other words, China is hardly a responsible great power or a good neighbour in its handling of the SCS issue.
DOES PANDEMIC DECLINED OR MAINTAINED DEMOCRACY?

Published: December 2023

This paper investigates two sides effects of COVID-19 pandemic on democracy in Indonesia. Majority articles on democracy and pandemic argue that COVID-19 pandemic has declined democracy in many countries, including Indonesia. This article, on the one hand agrees with the dominant argument, but on the other hand argues that the COVID-19 pandemic also contributed to maintain democracy. This paper bases democracy on Beetham's notion whose defined democracy as popular control over public affairs with the principles of equality and participation. In order to examine relationship between democracy and pandemic, we use three issues as case studies: the Minerba Bill, the Omnibus Law and data transparency issues. This paper uses qualitative methods and data obtained by literature study regarding civil society’s participation and control in public affairs during the last a year. Two main findings of this paper show that the pandemic has accelerated democratic decline trough two directions, they are from above and from below. Decline from above due to restrictions of freedom of speech and civil participation in public affairs. At the same time, decline from below occurred due to people cleavage in public health issues. In addition, disinformation spread by buzzer which redistributed by other people has been made this situation worse. Otherwise, pandemic also maintained democracy through strengthening civil society's networks and participation marked by strengthening digital activism network toward country’s policy and data transparency. It may be concluded that civil society play a crucial role in maintaining global democracy, especially during the pandemic.

Published: December 2023

In contemporary times, public diplomacy is not necessarily facilitated by a state actor and the diplomatic process could still be interrelated with many sectors, including religion and sports. The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is one kind of public diplomacy arena in this context. In the UFC, there is a game of identity that is visible under certain conditions, for example, the one at the fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov, who is well known to have a very strong Islamic identity. This paper will dig into the manifestation of Islamic identity and public diplomacy in the UFC by Khabib Nurmagomedov from the beginning of his career in 2012 until his retirement. First of all, this paper describes the UFC as a public diplomacy arena, including the values it brings. Then proceed with the background of Khabib Nurmagomedov as a UFC fighter with his unique identity. After that, it will be explained how the symbolism of Islamic identity emerged and played in the UFC, with Khabib Nurmagomedov as the main focus. In the end, it can be concluded that Khabib Nurmagomedov has provided a unique position for Islamic identity in the UFC.
RELIGION, CULTURAL TRANSFORMATION, AND MODERNIZATION

Published: December 2023

Globalization is characterized by advances in science and technology that are inevitable by the community, including the people of Surakarta. People in Surakarta are in dilemma between tradition and modernization. Education, transportation, and economic advancement have transformed the social, religious, and cultural aspects of the people in Surakarta over the last three decades. Thus, how is the narrative of the paradigm shift of religiosity of the Surakarta community amid modernization? This descriptive qualitative study collected data through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The analysis employed an interactive analysis model. The findings revealed that the paradigm shift of religiosity of the Surakarta community is directly proportional to the social, political, economic, and cultural changes. There is a shift in the religious perspective of the Surakarta community known as hijrah from the abangan Muslim community to Islamist activism or new santri with all the limitations of understanding and Islamic doctrine, which requires assistance in terms of Javanese Islamic culture and local beliefs to avoid uprooting them. As a result of hijrah and becoming Islamic activism, people left the Javanese culture such as Kejawen and local beliefs. However, some of them have transformed the culture to fit the teachings of Islam. So far, those who hijrah to NU still adhere to religious traditions and even transform Javanese culture to suit the times. Meanwhile, Islamic activism has left Javanese Islamic traditions and local beliefs. The shift in religious paradigm asserts two things. They are internal and external encouragement. First, internal factors are in the form of encouragement from within religious communities. Second, external factors are external stimuli that can encourage a shift in the Surakarta community's religious perspective.
PREMEDITATIO MALORUM AND DISSEMINATION OF HOPE IN POST-PANDEMIC RECOVERY
Authors: Pasopati Rommel , Yuliastuti Anicleta , Pujimahanani Cahyaningsih
Published: December 2023

Premeditatio malorum is a Stoic philosophical concept that speaks about negative visualization of conditions that may come. By imagining, Stoic people could prepare anything to the most specific aspects that may be realized. Meanwhile, post-pandemic condition is related to recovery of everything. Since COVID-19 outbreak changes our life, new normal condition should be filled with preventive actions rather than preemptive ones. Alongside with those, prolonging hope should be always kept in flowing to walk together with people in everyday life. The question is, how may premeditatio malorum contribute to dissemination of hope in post-pandemic recovery today? Using qualitative method, philosophical and cultural concepts are used to explain correlations between premeditatio malorum, living hope, and post-pandemic recovery. The reality of hope does not stand alone but should be accompanied with anticipations of bad impacts that may come. Preparing for inevitable setbacks could contribute more to optimism than being pessimistic or surrender to current conditions. It is matter of practice that will make people calm and shape further hope to amend unavoidable impacts. In conclusion, by thinking negatively, this Stoic concept could overcome negative impacts of future condition. Moreover, premeditatio malorum may provide such framework of thoughts to widen hope to its best and worst conditions that may happen afterwards.
INTERSECTIONALITY OF POLITICS AND RELIGION IN GLOBAL POPULISM TOWARDS COVID-19 PANDEMIC RESPONSES
Authors: Nuraeni  , Yasmin Nur Habibah
Published: December 2023

COVID-19 has forced all countries to implement various policies to reduce the number of spreads. The biggest challenges in handling the pandemic mostly come from the public's perception towards COVID-19, which turns out to follow the same pattern or even strongly influenced by political views and religious beliefs where both meet in a populist trend. Even before the pandemic, a rife outbreak of populism had colored the world. Presidential elections in the US, Brexit in Europe, and the presidential election in Indonesia have become a battleground for populist views that have created such polarization. The polarization hinders most of the implementations of government policies and has also affected the handling of the pandemic. Besides that, the existing polarization in society has been aggravated by the growing distortion and misinformation regarding COVID-19. Even when, scientifically, the COVID-19 vaccine can be made and distributed. Conspiracy theories with political and religious backgrounds are the most widely used basis for doubts about the reality and handling of COVID itself. Even worse, various groups do not believe in COVID-19 or refuse vaccines, even in the high-literacy countries. This paper will examine the general symptoms of global populism in the context of the pandemic. The authors argue that this becomes a more complicated challenge for countries than making a vaccine or finding medicines in stopping the COVID-19 pandemic.

Authors: Suluh Gembyeng Ciptadi  , Alfath Marzuki
Published: December 2023

People around the world are currently carrying out booster vaccinations in the midst of the outbreak of the Omicron variant of the COVID-19 virus. In Indonesia, vaccine booster activities have been carried out since January 12, 2022. The Indonesian government makes vaccines free and encourages the public to immediately carry out vaccine booster. Vaccine booster information and campaigns also appear on social media. Twitter as one of the social media that is widely used in Indonesia is also enlivened with discussions about vaccine boosters. The objective of this research is to see how the vaccine booster issue is discussed on Twitter. By using the concept of Social Media Analytics (SMA), this study explores tweet data and analyzes it based on the hashtags that appear, the accounts that post a lot and get re-tweets, and the accounts that are mentioned the most (mentioned) in the discussion of the vaccine booster issue. The method of this research is descriptive qualitative. Data from Twitter will be collected from February to March 2022. Data will be collected using NVivo Plus 12 software. The result expected to provide social media analysis related to “Booster Vaccine” discourse that occurred in twitter.
“...The Time Has Come to Put an End to the Armenian Issue Once and for All”: The Problem of the Armenian Vilayets of the Ottoman Empire in the International Agenda in 1894–1912
Authors:   North-Caucasus Federal University, Ambartsumyan Karine , Velichko Lyudmila ,   North-Caucasus Federal University
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The interest in the “Armenian issue” is linked to the current international agenda and the impact of significant historical events on it, such as the genocide of 1915. Methods and materials. The interdisciplinary principle determines the use of traditional historical approaches (historical-genetic and historical-comparative) and international relations theories (defensive realism) simultaneously. The sources contain the published documents and publicism, as well as the archival documents of the Archives of Foreign Policy of the Russian Empire and the State Archives of the Russian Federation. Analysis. Starting with the signing of the Berlin Treaty and the introduction of an article into it obliging Ottoman Porte to reform the management of the Armenian population, the inclusion of the “Armenian issue” in the foreign policy agenda of European states began. At the same time, the responsibility for the reforms carried out by the Ottomans was collective, and the leadership of Russia in this matter was considered impossible. Collectivity was the reason for the erosion of responsibility; the Sultan was not actually made to reform. With the beginning of the “Hamid pogroms” in 1894, the “Armenian issue” threatened the balanced position of the powers in relation to the Ottoman Empire and actualized the issue of the Ottoman Porte’s responsibility for reforms in the Armenian vilayets. Obviously, Russia could be the most effective. France, Germany, and Italy initially did not plunge into this problem; in Asian Turkey, the main actors were still Great Britain and Russia. Results. Neither England nor Russia dared to act decisively, but they did not want to give in to each other either. For the British, control of the straits and the dominance of Russia in the Middle East were unacceptable. On the other hand, Russia was afraid to create a “second Bulgaria” near the Caucasian border. Therefore, the “Armenian issue”, complicated by rivalry, went through a cycle on the international agenda, as a result of which Russia returned to dominance in its solution after 1908. The contribution of the authors to the writing of the article is related to the research by L.N. Velichko on European and Ottoman Porte’s policy in resolving the “Armenian issue”, K.R. Ambartsumyan has dealt with the evolution of Russia’s position and explored the factors that influenced its change.
Cossack Emigrants in Czechoslovakia in 1921–1939
Authors:   Kuban State University, Ratushnyak Oleg
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The purpose of this study is to analyze key aspects of the lives and details of Cossack emigrants in the Czechoslovak Republic (ČSR). Methods and materials. Within the research process, the author relied mainly on the following methods: narrative, historical-genetic, comparative-historical, and the method of analogies. The sources used were regulatory legal acts and office documents of the government and several ministries of the Czechoslovak Republic, speeches by individual representatives of the Czechoslovak ruling circles, documents of various organizations and societies, orders and decrees of army atamans, periodical press materials, and sources of private origin. Analysis. Most Cossacks moved to Czechoslovakia from Turkey and Greece, where they ended up after the evacuation from Crimea. The organization of the Cossacks’ move to Czechoslovakia was carried out mainly by public associations and societies. The first part of the Cossacks arrived in Czechoslovakia in June 1921. By the beginning of 1922, about 3,000 Cossacks were stationed on the territory of Czechoslovakia. The Cossacks received great support as part of the campaign to help Russian refugees. Within Czechoslovakia, the Cossacks formed public associations in the form of villages and khutors, as well as workers’ artels, in order to obtain and perform various jobs. Most Cossacks living in Czechoslovakia were involved in agriculture. Atamans of Cossack troops tried in every possible way to counteract the assimilation of Cossacks. Many Cossacks, after getting an education, were trying to leave Czechoslovakia for other states, mainly for France. Results. A comparative analysis showed that the Cossacks generally adapted more easily to the conditions of life in the position of an emigrant than most representatives of other parts of the Russian emigration. At the same time, the problem of assimilation among the Cossacks was sometimes quite acute and required the adoption of effective measures by their leaders. One of these measures was the popularization among the Cossacks of facts from their historical past and the preservation of historical memory. Not least, it was contributed by the Cossack historical commissions and archives.
Implementing Justice and Realizing Political Process in the Islamic-Iranian Model of Progress
Authors:   Islamic Azad University (Abhar Branch), Azizi Hasan
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The Islamist model of Iran assumes understanding national values and recognizing rights of indigenous peoples, seeks to meet the material and spiritual needs of society. This model has epistemological, ontological, and anthropological foundations rooted in the revelatory and ideological teachings of Islam. Its content, therefore, is based on monotheism, resurrection, and the inseparability of the worlds. The process of political development in the Islamic-Iranian model is progress based on divine and Islamic knowledge, arising from the heart, historical, indigenous, and cultural conditions of our country, which are realized in the context of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The importance of the research is that, by explaining the indicators of political development, it outlines how the will to achieve it forms in society. Methods and materials. To achieve the desired development and stand up against adversities and sanctions, we must identify our needs, limitations, and political, social, and economic harms and take action to solve them, then keep pace with the new global developments. The strategies considered for data analysis in the present study are in the framework of a qualitative method and based on a descriptive-analytical approach. Analysis. The study raises these questions: what indicators comprise the Islamic-Iranian model of progress’s political development, and how can this model achieve sustainable political development? The results of the study show the indicators of political development in the model are in accordance with the Sharia, and the context of sustainable political development is achieved by committing to implementing justice in the policy-making environment of society.
Organization of Providing State People of Siberia with Grain Reserves on the Way from Sol Kamskaya to Verkhoturye in 1598–1605
Authors:   Volgograd State University, Rybalko Natalia
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The article examines the problem of organizing the provision of service people in Siberia with grain reserves, which were collected as a special tax from the lands of the south-eastern part of the Pomorye during the reign of B.F. Godunov along the road from Sol Kamskaya to Verkhoturye. Methods and materials. The source base is the official material of the Verkhoturye and Solikamsk administrative huts, individual documents of the Siberian order. The method of diachronic analysis obtained a year-by-year picture of how transportation functioned from 1596/97 to 1605. The method of comparative analysis clarified the dynamics of changes in the amounts of salary fees for each individual region of the Pomorye. Analysis. The article clarifies the idea of the administrative management of Verkhoturye at the end of the 16th and beginning of the 17th centuries, gives a general description of the system for collecting and sending grain reserves, as well as the accompanying duty in the form of a ship case, clarifies the features of the organization of supplies, and systematizes and calculates their norms by year. Results. It was possible to establish that the Moscow government, first from the court of clerk I. Vakhromeev and, after 1599, from the Order of the Kazan and Meshchersky Palace, directly controlled Verkhoturye. Until 1597, supplies were carried out through Cherdyn and Lozva, and from 1598 through Sol Kamskaya in Verkhoturye. In 1596/97 and 1597/98. The largest volumes of grain reserves were supplied from the territories of Perm the Great and Vyatka. In 1600/01 and 1601/02, instead of the territory of the Pomorye, grain harvests were delivered to Sol Kamskaya from Kazan; the Pomors were engaged in transportation to Siberia. The share of transportation was higher near Vyatka and Ustyug the Great, as in 1604/05, when the collection of grain reserves resumed from the territory of the Pomorye. The scheme for public procurement of grain reserves developed by the government can be assessed as effective; however, management difficulties also arose due to the remote location of the region, abuse of the official powers of the governor, the forced need to quickly find funds to resolve issues locally, and attempts by carriers to find their own benefits and avoid losses.
Investigation of the Interaction of a Modified Boronitride Nanostructure with an Acetone Molecule
Authors:   Volgograd State University, Boroznina Natalia , Erofeev Danil ,   Volgograd State University, Boroznin Sergey ,   Volgograd State University
Published: December 2023

This article presents a study proving that the use of boron nitride-based nanotubes can form the basis for the creation of a new hypersensitive sensor capable of responding to the presence of a trace amount of acetone. In confirmation of what has been said, the article describes the computer process of interaction of a modified boronitride nanotube nitro group with an acetone molecule, graphs of the energy interaction of nanosystems are presented. The nitro group (NO2) was chosen according to the following factors: this functional group effectively attracts an electron to itself, that is, the so-called “pulling” of the electron density on itself occurs, which in turn enhances the adsorption properties of the entire BNNT-NO2 complex. Thus, it can be concluded that this work, complementing the knowledge of sensors based on bio and nanotechnology, will be useful not only in theoretical terms, but also as a basis for creating sensor nanodevices in practice. The presented study can provide a significant impetus for the development of sensors based on new technologies in the medical and technical fields.

Authors: Domingues Júlio Guerra , Araujo Daniella Castro , Costa-Silva Luciana , Machado Alexei Manso Corrêa , Machado Luciana Andrade Carneiro , Veloso Adriano Alonso , Barreto Sandhi Maria , Telles Rosa Weiss
Published: December 2023

Abstract Objective: To develop a convolutional neural network (CNN) model, trained with the Brazilian “Estudo Longitudinal de Saúde do Adulto Musculoesquelético” (ELSA-Brasil MSK, Longitudinal Study of Adult Health, Musculoskeletal) baseline radiographic examinations, for the automated classification of knee osteoarthritis. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study carried out with 5,660 baseline posteroanterior knee radiographs from the ELSA-Brasil MSK database (5,660 baseline posteroanterior knee radiographs). The examinations were interpreted by a radiologist with specific training, and the calibration was as established previously. Results: The CNN presented an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.866 (95% CI: 0.842-0.882). The model can be optimized to achieve, not simultaneously, maximum values of 0.907 for accuracy, 0.938 for sensitivity, and 0.994 for specificity. Conclusion: The proposed CNN can be used as a screening tool, reducing the total number of examinations evaluated by the radiologists of the study, and as a double-reading tool, contributing to the reduction of possible interpretation errors.

Published: December 2023

Abstract Objective: To analyze the association between osteolysis at the prosthesis interfaces, as determined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with multiacquisition variable-resonance image combination selective (MAVRIC-SL) sequences, and clinical severity after knee or hip arthroplasty, as well as to assess interobserver and intraobserver agreement on periprosthetic bone resorption. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of 47 patients (49 joints) under postoperative follow-up after knee or hip arthroplasty, with chronic pain, between March 2019 and August 2020. All of the patients completed the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) questionnaire. The component interfaces were evaluated and ordered into two groups: osseointegrated and osteolytic. Nonparametric tests were used. Results: There were significant differences between the two groups in terms of the mean WOMAC scores: total (p = 0.010); stiffness domain (p = 0.047); and function (p = 0.011) domains. There was substantial interobserver and intraobserver agreement for most analyses of the components. Conclusion: Periprosthetic osteolysis appears to be associated with clinical complaints of pain in the post-arthroplasty scenario, and MAVRIC-SL provides reproducible assessments. It could prove to be an important tool for orthopedists to use in the evaluation of challenging cases of chronic pain after arthroplasty.

Authors: Feijó Lorena Pinho , Araújo Ranna Jorge de , Motta Sarah Gadelha , Ramalho Filho Mauro Henrique Nascimento , Kubrusly Marcos , Augusto Kristopherson Lustosa
Published: December 2023

Abstract Introduction: Psychiatric diseases are increasing in prevalence in recent decades, being also the pathologies in which stigmatizing attitudes are most often observed. Objective: To translate the MICA-4 scale into Portuguese with cross-cultural adaptation for use in Brazil and to verify the possibility for the contribution of the tool to assess improvements in medical training through its application to medical students. Method: Seven steps were required for its translation and validation. Moreover, the work consisted of applying the test in two moments to a group of 60 medical students who participated in an internship rotation in a psychiatric hospital in a Brazilian city. Result: The validation of the MICA-4 scale consisted of the steps of translation, synthesis, back-translation, expert committee, pre-test, textual verification and application, which were successfully performed. The scale achieved an agreement among the experts and there was no difficulty among the students during the test application. In the data analysis after application of the questionnaire during the two moments, of the 16 items of the scale, item 9 obtained statistical relevance (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study analyzed the students’ perception of stigmatizing situations, and most of the answers were consistent with less prejudiced actions even before the internship experience, being corroborated after this period. The issues that still showed stigmatizing attitudes demonstrate the need to improve teaching tools that can reduce these negative attitudes and contribute to the training of good professionals and, consequently, better quality of care.

Precários, mas organizados: a estratégia de resistência dos uberizados
Authors: Branco Pedro Mendonça Castelo , Silva Sidney Jard da
Published: December 2023

Resumo A uberização do trabalho é mais uma etapa no processo de desconfiguração dos pactos sociais conformados no período fordista. A estratégia de construção de “parceiros” possibilita a externalização de custos de capital fixo para uma multidão de trabalhadores precários, como também uma fuga, por parte das empresas, da responsabilidade de garantir os direitos trabalhistas e as seguridades ocupacionais. Diante desse novo terreno de exploração do trabalho, impulsionado por grandes empresas transnacionais que operam para além das limitações nacionais e acumulam em escala global, aqui são apresentadas iniciativas de organização dos uberizados a partir de experiências internacionais e nacionais à luz do conceito de sindicalismo de movimento social.
Subjetivação e riscos psicossociais da uberização do trabalho nas dinâmicas territoriais
Authors: Gomes-Souza Ronaldo , Tramontano Marcelo Claudio
Published: December 2023

Resumo Diante das mudanças econômicas, políticas e tecnológicas do mundo do trabalho no território urbano, enfrentamos hoje novas informalidades que precarizam as relações e condições de trabalho de forma global. O objetivo deste ensaio é tecer reflexões críticas sobre os processos de novas subjetivações e riscos psicossociais da uberização do trabalho e seus impactos nas dinâmicas territoriais, destacando as empresas-plataforma que oferecem serviços de táxi e entrega, fazendo um panorama que desloca do cenário internacional para o nacional. Os trabalhadores uberizados enfrentam situações singulares de violências das empresas-plataforma e urbana, agravando os riscos psicossociais, a dignidade, a saúde e a qualidade de vida dos trabalhadores. As práticas, gestão e contradições dessas empresas denotam a privação do direito à cidade e a captura da subjetividade dos trabalhadores.
Violências do Estado na produção de territórios, informalidade e redes de proteção
Authors: Santos Renato Abramowicz
Published: December 2023

Resumo Este artigo toma as remoções como prisma descritivo e analítico para perspectivar a produção do espaço urbano e do conflito, a partir, sobretudo, da violência produzida pelo Estado. O texto tem como base empírica pesquisa etnográfica realizada no centro de São Paulo, onde a força do Estado se revela na realização de remoções, deslocamentos, destruição de territórios e de tecidos sociais longamente constituídos, como também na produção de informalidade e mercados informais; relaciona-se também com a articulação de redes e arranjos de proteção (habitacionais, inclusive) como respostas a essas violências. É objetivo, também, observar nessas disputas a mobilização e a instrumentalização tática e situacional das tramas institucionais, vendo como nessa movimentação conflitiva outros e novos repertórios e práticas são criados.
“O caminho chinês”: desenvolvimento desigual, projetamento e socialismo
Authors: Jabbour Elias , Nova Vítor Boa , Vadell Javier
Published: December 2023

Resumo São inúmeros os indicadores demonstrando a robustez e a resiliência do processo de desenvolvimento chinês ao longo das últimas décadas. Porém, não é incomum perceber nas análises correntes o processo chinês somente como mais um caso de catching-up bem-sucedido; um latecomer de matriz asiática como o Japão e a Coreia do Sul. Na verdade, o desenvolvimento chinês não é nada trivial, tendo em vista sua história e seu ponto de partida: em 1949 a China era o país de menor renda per capita do mundo e hoje disputa a fronteira tecnológica com os Estados Unidos. Propomos, neste artigo, as categorias de “desenvolvimento desigual”, “projetamento” e “socialismo” como suportes fundamentais em uma análise de fundo sobre as reais razões explicativas do sucesso chinês.
O tópos da neocracia: introdução & genealogia
Authors: Fernandes Breno , Cardoso Elizabeth
Published: December 2023

Resumo Este artigo introduz, no campo dos estudos literários, o tópos da neocracia. Com base na definição de tópos de Carl Meiner se busca, em primeiro lugar, definir o que é uma neocracia: construção ficcional de sociedades ou comunidades de crianças que se ordenam, se mantêm e se preservam sem a tutela de adultos, às vezes sem a colaboração dos adultos e outras vezes à revelia dos adultos. Em seguida, é proposta uma genealogia que aponta o contexto no qual o tópos parece ter surgido, e são comentados alguns romances que tanto servem de marcos iniciais de sua manifestação, já na passagem do século XIX para o século XX, quanto demonstram a presença do tópos no campo literário do século XXI. Ademais, são feitas reflexões acerca de como ocorreu o processo histórico que construiu as ideias ou as idealizações de adulto e de criança que prevalecem em nosso tempo - ambos os conceitos entendidos como identidades, mais do que como condições psicobiológicas do corpo. Argumenta-se que uma das funções ou intenções do tópos da neocracia é criticar tais idealizações, sobretudo no que diz respeito à representação da criança como ser humano marcado por faltas e por incapacidades que fariam dela inapta para viver em meio aos adultos e para tomar parte nas decisões que dizem respeito ao bem-estar coletivo. Portanto o tópos da neocracia se manifesta em textos fictícios, mas seus efeitos ultrapassariam a ficção, pois, ao gerar novas representações da criança, poderiam ajudar a deslocar as crianças da vida real, do isolamento físico e da marginalidade política em que se encontram contemporaneamente.
The Power of Comparison in the Caribbean: Creolization and Transculturation in Perspective
Authors: Rieumont Ingrid Brioso
Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT The Antilles have been described as a bridge between the Global North and South. However, the global study of the Caribbean societies has often been hindered by the very elements used to describe them. Thus, in response, several concepts have been proposed from anthropology, linguistics, and literature to make sense of Caribbean societies’ experiences as a result of the colonial encounter. This study compares two “bridge-concepts,” creolization and transculturation, based on the works of Fernando Ortiz, Édouard Glissant, Jean Bernabé, Patrick Chamoiseau, and Raphael Confiant. Consequently, it sheds light on the concepts’ definitions, and how they address the aspects of temporality, cultural interactions, particularization versus generalization, and the violence of the colonial encounter. By clarifying these concepts and terms like acculturation, Americanization, and Antillanité, the article makes a significant contribution to literary studies as it contextualizes the explanatory potential and limitations of these critical terms for understanding complex phenomena that unfolded in the Caribbean.
Cecília Meireles e Gabriela Mistral como leitoras de Rabindranath Tagore: negociações de gênero entre América Latina e Índia
Authors: Jöhnk Marília
Published: December 2023

RESUMO O presente artigo aborda a influência do escritor bengali Rabindranath Tagore na obra de duas escritoras latino-americanas que faziam parte do movimento Modernista: a chilena Gabriela Mistral, laureada com o Prêmio Nobel de Literatura (1945), e a brasileira Cecília Meireles. Por meio de análises textuais de Gabriela Mistral e Cecília Meireles, argumento que a contribuição de Rabindranath Tagore foi importante para a literatura de mulheres na América Latina no século XX. Ao analisar Gabriela Mistral e Cecília Meireles como escritoras e leitoras, o artigo questiona as distinções entre ambas as práticas culturais, além de mostrar que a América Latina vivenciou, bem antes dos estudos pós-coloniais, o desenvolvimento de uma poética que não somente criticou o paradigma patriarcal, mas também o eurocêntrico.
Literatura, teoria e descolonização: uma poética de reorientação cultural enquanto estratégia de resistência
Authors: Walter Roland
Published: December 2023

RESUMO Este ensaio traça um mapa de geografia crítica interamericana de como literatura e teoria descolonizam as colonialidades de ser-estar. Ao partir da “experiência comum quebrada no tempo” - “a não história” (Glissant, 1992) - que faz com que os escritores deste continente busquem o continuum espacial e temporal, pergunta-se: qual o papel de(s)colonial da literatura/teoria no cenário das diversas crises contemporâneas? Que tipo de casa-lar textos literários representam em diversos contextos culturais das Américas, caracterizados por transculturação, translocação, violência e entre lugares locais e globais? Nesse processo, elaboram-se trilhas enquanto respostas tentativas dentro da área da literatura comparada e suas abordagens e metodologias analíticas interdisciplinares com o objetivo de problematizar a relação entre literatura e teoria e cultura e descolonização na interface entre colonialismo e colonialidade.

Authors: Dronova Olga , Khramova Ekaterina
Published: December 2023

The rapid development of innovative technical means that provide significant information in various areas has had a positive impact on the expansion of the possibilities for law enforcement agencies to use modern unmanned aerial vehicles. Continuous modernization of equipment requires continuous monitoring and testing of the capabilities of new technologies, but in some cases the fulfillment of tasks that different departments face calls for a rational approach to choosing technical means depending on the demands to its functions and overall economic profitability. Using the analysis of historical information and technical data on unmanned aerial vehicles, the authors present their approach to identifying the periods of the transformation of the vehicles’ functions and their introduction in the practice of law enforcement as forensic means used in investigating and solving crimes. The authors single out key technical aspects of ensuring the payload and target load of unmanned aerial vehicles, which determine the areas of this equipment’s functional use, and its relevance in solving a wide range of criminalistic tasks.

Authors: Malakhaeva Svetlana
Published: December 2023

The study was carried out at the Expert Forensic Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Irkutsk in order to reveal correlations between locus of control and the employees’ professional motivation. The study involved 40 men aged between 23 and 50. The research revealed a high level of externality the respondents showed. There are high indicators on the internality scale in relation to health and illness. The employees recognize their responsibility in family relations however the figures are medium. The lowest rate of responsibility was revealed in the field of interpersonal and production relations. The highest rate of correlations was revealed between preferred choice of a motive for responsible work and high internality in the field of failures which amounted to 0,81. There is also a high correlation between the motive for achieving personal success and low internality in the field of family relations 0,77. There is a strong correlation of 0,71 between the financial motive, high internality in the field of achievements and general internality. There is a strong relationship between the financial motive and general internality, as well as between the financial motive and low internality in the area of failures r = 0,65 and r = 0,5. A high correlation r = 0,5 can be traced between the motive of a career and the length of service. An inverse correlation was revealed between the dominant motive of responsible work, the scales of general internality and internality in the field of achievements r = –0,43 and –0,48.
The Course on Restriction of Freedom Within the Framework of the Modern Model of the Criminal-Legal Reaction of the State to the Crime
Authors: Kravchenko Irina
Published: December 2023

The article analyzes the practice of applying punishment in the form of restriction of freedom in the light of modern trends in criminal law policy, which seems relevant, given the ten-year experience that has been formed. The scientific novelty of the presented work lies in the author's approach to determining the role of the punishment in the implementation of modern criminal law policy of the state. The purpose of this study is to establish the correlation of expectation and actual implementation of the use of restriction of freedom as a type of punishment. The methodology of the research is based on the theoretical analysis of the main scientific provisions on the essence of punishment in the form of restriction of freedom and the practice of its application, based on the formal legal method. The practical implementation of the legislative model of restriction of freedom in accordance with the general indicators of the number of convicts in Russia is considered. It is established that the absolute indicators of the number of persons sentenced to restriction of freedom, demonstrating a decrease, in this sense are not correlated with the identification of the specific weight of this punishment in the total number of convicts. It is determined that the restriction of freedom, both as the main and as an additional punishment, has a stable weight in the total number of convicts since 2014. It is concluded that the model of the considered punishment is relevant, but its implementation in the suggested form contains a number of problems that requires its solution.

Published: December 2023

The placement of production facilities is a fundamental element of building an efficient and competitive business. Oil production and refining are strategically important industries for the Russian Federation. Optimization of the placement of production capacities of oil refineries is becoming particularly relevant in the context of the development of new oil fields, as well as the renovation of old fields within the framework of innovative projects of the largest Russian oil corporations. In order to develop optimal production locations, it is necessary to identify the main factors that guide oil refining enterprises when deploying their production facilities on the territory of the Russian Federation. The purpose of the work is to identify the main factors that guide the enterprises of the oil refining industry of the Russian Federation when placing their production facilities. Within the framework of the main goal, subtasks are also formed, such as finding an approximate scheme for the placement of the production enterprise of its main capacities, validation of the generated model on real statistical data of the socio-economic situation of the subjects of the Russian Federation with the use of machine learning methods and optimization of the obtained statistical model. The main methods used in this work are graphical analysis, system analysis of activities, as well as the «random forest» machine learning algorithm. Within the framework of this work, a scheme common to all production enterprises for choosing the optimal location of activities was formed, the main factors that guide oil refining enterprises when placing production facilities were identified, such as the presence of a large chemical industry sector in the region, high domestic consumption of petroleum products by retail consumers, as well as the presence of more oil pipeline facilities in the region. The orientation of the oil refining industry of the Russian Federation to the domestic consumer of final products is indicated.
