Transspråklige praksiser i nordiske barnehager: en kunnskapsoversikt
Authors: Tkachenko Elena
Published: January 2024

De siste årene har begrepet transspråking vært i forskningens søkelys, og forskere har både utviklet dette begrepet teoretisk og undersøkt det empirisk i ulike utdanningskontekster. Likevel er det behov for mer kunnskap om flerspråklig didaktikk, og flere studier rapporterer om lærernes usikkerhet og behov for kompetanseheving. Målet for denne artikkelen er å systematisere empiriske studier publisert mellom 2010 og 2022 som beskriver flerspråklige praksiser i nordisk barnehagekontekst. Femti studier er inkludert i kunnskapsoversikten og analysert for å beskrive state-of-the-art på forskningsfeltets fagfront. Analysen viser hvilke metoder som har blitt brukt i relevante empiriske studier, i hvilke barnehagekontekster og barnehagesituasjoner flerspråklige praksiser har blitt beskrevet, hvilke temaer som har blitt viet oppmerksomhet og hvordan slike praksiser blir møtt av ulike aktører. 
ENGLISH ABSTRACT
Translanguaging practices in Nordic ECEC: A review of research
In recent years, the concept of translanguaging has been in the research spotlight, and researchers have developed this concept theoretically and investigated it empirically in various educational contexts. However, there is a need for more knowledge about multilingual teaching practices, and teachers’ uncertainty reported on in some studies calls for more competence development in this field. The aim of this paper is to systematize empirical studies published between 2010 and 2022 that describe multilingual practices in the Nordic early childhood education and care (ECEC) context. Fifty studies are included and analysed in this scope review to provide the state-of-the-art in the field. The analysis reveals the methods used in relevant empirical studies, the ECEC contexts and situations in which multilingual practices have been described, the topics that have received attention, and how such practices are perceived by different stakeholders.

Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia Coli Associated Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
Authors: PG Vallés
Published: January 2024

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC)-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (STEC-HUS) is a clinical syndrome involving hemolytic anemia (with fragmented red blood cells), low levels of platelets in the blood (thrombocytopenia), and acute kidney injury (AKI). It is the major infectious cause of AKI in children. Severe forms can be associated with multiorgan involvement during the acute stage of the disease. Endothelial injury is the trigger event in the microangiopathic process. The host inflammatory response to toxin and E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is involved in disease pathophysiology. Early diagnosis and identification of underlying pathogenic mechanisms are of great significance for improving prognosis and reducing sequelae and mortality. Typical management of STEC-HUS patients relies on supportive care for electrolyte and water imbalance, anemia, hypertension, and renal failure. At present there is no specific therapy to ameliorate the prognosis. The Immediate outcome is most often favorable but long-term renal sequelae are frequent due to nephron loss. This review summarizes current knowledge regarding the epidemiological findings, the pathophysiological and clinical aspects, and its diagnosis and management.

Published: January 2024

Numerous scholarly investigations have been conducted on English language assessment practices. Nevertheless, there is a lack of knowledge regarding the challenges and potential solutions related to implementing effective language assessment practices, particularly within Indonesian senior high schools. This study aims to investigate the perceived constraints and aspired prospective solutions associated with language assessment practices in Indonesian EFL classrooms. The data for this qualitative case study were collected by conducting in-depth interviews with fifteen EFL teachers from different senior high schools across South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Based on the thematic analysis of the data, this study revealed the perceived challenges to implementing English language assessment practices in three general categories: national policy-related issues, institution-related issues, and student-teacher-related issues. This study also revealed the need for leadership support to foster school culture support for innovative language assessment practices as the main aspired solution to implementing language assessment practices. These findings help improve understanding of the numerous factors that must be considered when putting English language assessment into practice, theoretically and practically.

La construcción de viviendas como factor de desarrollo social: Análisis de costos para mejorar la ejecución de un proyecto inmobiliario
Authors: Proaño Venegas Ing. Carlos Israel
Published: January 2024

Desde la aparición del ser humano se ha buscado la manera de refugiarse de los avatares de la naturaleza y con el pasar del tiempo ha llegado a convertirse en un estatus y forma de vida que marca el desarrollo social de las personas y de la sociedad. La situación económica y financiera de un gran número de la población ocasiona que no sea tan fácil adquirir una vivienda, a esto se suma que, en determinados casos la administración directa de la obra sea vista como una opción de ahorro sin ver a futuro los posibles problemas de carácter técnico que podría provocar. Los costos directos son más visibles ante la proyección de gastos, pero no se puede perder de vista los costos indirectos puesto que causan un impacto en la construcción de una vivienda. El objetivo es identificar los costos indirectos para determinar el porcentaje de relación que tienen sobre los costos directos y su impacto en la elaboración de presupuesto de obra. Se realizó un análisis de la bibliografía disponible, así como el enfoque nacional e internacional de la temática para estandarizar su aplicación. Los resultados indican que, si bien los costos directos son los que mayormente influyen y representan un amplio porcentaje del presupuesto establecido, los costos indirectos ejercen su influencia en el presupuesto contribuyendo a tener mucho más claro el panorama financiero con el que se debe ejecutar un proyecto inmobiliario. Se propone una matriz de presupuesto con todos los rubros intervinientes en la construcción civil.

Brechas de género en las ciencias sociales. Un análisis de citaciones y temáticas científicas en Argentina
Authors: Gónzalez Guadalupe , Kessler Gabriel , Murillo María Victoria
Published: January 2024

El trabajo se propone analizar el impacto del género de las personas investigadoras en los patrones de citación, y en la probabilidad de focalizarse en temáticas de género en investigadoras/es de sociología y ciencia política del Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET), la institución científica más importante de Argentina. El corpus son los tres trabajos más citados de 253 científicos y científicas de ambas disciplinas al que se aplicaron técnicas de análisis cuantitativo. Nuestros datos comprueban las hipótesis basadas en trabajos de los países del Norte Global y verificamos que las investigadoras citan más mujeres que los investigadores que estudian la temática de género, aunque esto va atenuándose en las generaciones más nuevas. En cuanto a las dos disciplinas, las brechas son menores en sociología que en ciencia política, en gran medida por una mayor presencia de mujeres respecto de la segunda. No obstante, la diferencia entre varones y mujeres se mantiene aún al interior de comunidades temáticas en las que la problemática de género tiene relevancia. Mostrando su atenuación, pero también su carácter pertinaz, esta nota de investigación es una invitación a continuar desarrollando líneas de indagación basadas en datos que permitan cuestionar nuestras propias prácticas académicas.
Sentiment Analysis Based on Urdu Reviews Using Hybrid Deep Learning Models
Authors: Singh Neha , Jaiswal Umesh Chandra
Published: January 2024

Worldwide websites publish enormous amounts of text, audio, and video content every day. This valuable information allows for the assessment of regional trends and general public opinion. Based on consumers’ online behavioural habits, businesses are showing them their chosen ads. It is difficult to carefully analyse these raw data to find valuable trends, especially for a language with limited resources like Urdu. There have not been many studies or efforts to create language resources for the Urdu language and analyse people’s sentiment, even though there are more than 169 million Urdu speakers in the world and a sizable amount of Urdu data is generated on various social media platforms every day. However, there has been relatively little research on sentiment analysis in Urdu. Researchers have primarily performed studies in English and Chinese. In response to this gap, we suggest an emotion analyser for Urdu, the primary language of Asia, in this research study. In this paper, we propose to assess sentiment in Urdu review texts by integrating a bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) model with a convolutional neural network (CNN). We contrast the CNN, LSTM, BiLSTM, and CNN-LSTM models with the CNN-BiLSTM model. With an accuracy rate of 0.99 %, the CNN-BiLSTM model performed better than the other models in an initial investigation.
Operationalizing Business Strategy by Questioning
Authors: Papazov Emil , Mihaylova Lyudmila
Published: January 2024

Business strategies often only skim the surface of the matter at hand, presenting general and vague descriptions of the direction of development without providing specifics or hinting at their essence. Strategies must be operationalized to effectively drive concrete actions and results, i.e., presented with a higher degree of specificity. Avoiding streamlined formulations and providing clear and objective language can aid in creating an engaging and mobilizing strategy. Questioning techniques can be employed as an initial phase in operationalizing business strategy. The inquiries used to construct the business strategy are founded on the fundamental questions applicable to any economy – “For whom?”, “What?”, and “How?”. These questions point to the market-product-technology trinity, which constitutes the essential components of any business and, consequently, any business strategy. In addition,, it is important to ask further questions that clarify the relationships between different elements of the business to formulate a strong business strategy. A fair assessment of the developed strategy’s efficacy can be made by providing specific answers to these questions.

Authors: Riza Devand Ainur , Widyastuti Sri Kayati , Jayanti Putu Devi
Published: January 2024

Cats are frequently affected by the diseases scabiosis and ankylostomyosis. The worm Ancylostoma sp, which is typically found in cats' small intestines, causes ankylostomyosis, whereas the zoonotic mite Sarcoptes scabiei causes scabiosis. In this paper, we will go through how to treat ankylostomyosis and scabiosis in three-month-old cats. A three-month-old male neighborhood cat that weighs 1.07 kg has been complaining for two weeks now that his ears and neck have been scratched frequently. He also has scabs on his ears and legs, diarrhea, an enlarged stomach, and is underweight and weak. Upon skin inspection, it was discovered that the patient had high intensity pruritus, papules, alopecia, crusts on the ears, dull hair, and pale-looking oral mucosa, conjunctiva, and anus. During the digestive examination, the abdomen was found to be swollen when palpated, with increased peristaltic noises and a fecal score of 6/7. Ancylostoma sp. eggs and S. scabiei mites were discovered after feces and skin scrapings were examined. Leukocytosis, monocytosis, granulocytosis, normochromic normocytic anemia, and thrombocytopenia were all detected in blood tests. treatment for causes using the antiectoparasites ivermectin and pyrantel pamoate. B-complex supportive therapy, bathing with sulfur shampoo, and enhanced feed management are all forms of symptomatic treatment using the antihistamine Chlorpheniramine Maleate. Examining skin scrapings following treatment revealed no S. scabiei mites, inspecting stools revealed no Ancylostoma sp. worm eggs, and repeating blood hematology tests revealed normal outcomes. The cat made good progress after three weeks of therapy and treatment, including the removal of scabs on both ears, the absence of pruritis, hair growth, the absence of stomach distention, and normal feces. In order to draw the conclusion that administering ivermectine for the treatment of scabiosis and pyrantel pamoate for the treatment of ankylostomyosis has proven to be successful in treating both conditions. Cats' activity should be restricted in order to prevent them from coming into touch with cats that appear to have clinical indications of mite infection (Sarcopttes sp.), which can cause ankylostomyosis and scabiosis.

Published: January 2024

Objective: To understand maternal grief by establishing an analysis between the types of death and the mediators of grief.
 
Methodology: Field research was carried out with a qualitative approach, with the participation of mothers who lost their children due to premature death (sudden/natural or violent/tragic) and who participate in the mutual help group “Mothers of Pieta”, in Patos, Paraíba. The interviews were reflected in the light of Bardin's content analysis method, the organization of data and information was done through the Mindomo 4.5.4 software, in the premium version, for the development of mind maps.
 
Results: Based on the mediators of mourning, to verify the existence of bonds of meaning between the bereaved and the lost being. It was observed, in the totality of the sample, that the bonds are of maternal order. Thus, it was possible to identify ambivalence in the relationship between mother and child, reports of satisfaction with social support after the loss and all mothers were involved in Catholic rituals. Most of the sample reported experiences resulting from a violent/tragic death, grief experiences prior to the death of their children, involvement in social roles and attachment security. Only one mother completed the six personality variables during the grieving path, while another experienced grief due to sudden/natural death.
 
Conclusion: There is evidence that the type of death can directly affect the experience of bereavement, since premature and violent death tends to lead to a longer period of mourning and a slower evolution of mourning.

Background: No drug with a liver antifibrotic effect for treating non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been approved. Physalis angulata Linn., better known to Indonesian as ciplukan, has natural abilities in various metabolic and inflammatory diseases. This study aims to determine the effect of ethyl acetate fraction of P. angulata in the NAFLD rat model by examining alanine aminotransferase (ALT), cholesterol levels, and liver histopathological features, which are methods to evaluate the course of the disease and the potential antifibrotic effect.Method: This research is an in vivo study on male Wistar rats conducted at the Animal Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Padjadjaran, from September to November 2020. Rats were grouped randomly into seven groups of 5 each. The NAFLD models were created by giving a diet containing 20% margarine for four weeks. The intervention groups were given vitamin E, ethyl acetate fraction of P. angulata, and both combinations. The statistical analysis examined differences in each group based on their histopathological features, ALT, and cholesterol levels.Results: Histopathological results in the group given P. angulata at a dose of 0.32 mg resembled normal liver, and the ALT level was similar to vitamin E. The administration of P. angulata at 0.16 mg dose improved cholesterol levels.Conclusions: P. angulata ethyl acetate fraction at a dose of 0.32 mg improved the histopathological and serum ALT levels in the NAFLD rat model, which could be the basis for the mechanism of P. angulata's antifibrotic ability in NAFLD conditions.

La universalidad del barroco americano
Authors: Félix Pichardo Ana Lilia
Published: January 2024

Este trabajo busca describir el concepto lezamiano de Barroco americano, a través del diálogo con la teorización sobre el ethos barroco de Bolívar Echeverría y la aproximación al barroco como concepto artístico desde la perspectiva de Severo Sarduy. Se piensa al barroco y al ethos barroco como herramientas estéticas bajo las cuales se puede pensar la literatura y la cultura americana. El barroco americano, expresado en el arte y en la literatura, se explica como una condensación de hechos que dotan de una singularidad al hecho americano, ya sea que se analice en términos políticos como lo hacen los estudios decoloniales o en términos estéticos como también lo ha hecho la teoría literaria y la historia del arte. El presente artículo trata de evidenciar las confluencias teóricas entre los intelectuales que han pensado con mayor rigor el hecho americano, en términos políticos y estéticos, como Aníbal Quijano, José Lezama Lima y Bolívar Echeverría.

A Study on the Development of a Teaching–Learning Model for Good Listening Using Scenario-Based Education in Korean Language Education
Authors:   Gyeongin National University of Education, Lee Sunyoung
Published: January 2024

Communication competency is an important core competency in a future society. To develop communication competency, an attitude of listening to others is necessary, and this importance should be further emphasized. A literature review was conducted to identify problems in existing listening education for good listeners. As a result, the problems of Korean language and listening education were as follows: 1) absence of a listening practice model, 2) imbalance in role rotation for mutual transaction, 3) instrumental perspective for problem-solving, and 4) lack of specific situational context. To complement these problems, a scenario-based listening teaching and learning model that emphasizes situational context is proposed. The design principle is as follows: 1) providing a teaching and learning environment where listening can occur, 2) providing scenarios containing specific situational contexts, 3) selecting the degree of self-disclosure for learners to immerse themselves in the situation, 4) analyzing and reflecting on the discourse text, and 5) learner activities and presenting feedback from the instructor who observed and investigated.
Development of a Student Role Checklist to Support Blended Learning Implementation
Authors:   Gyeongin National University of Education, Hong Sunjoo , Ahn Jiyoun
Published: January 2024

A lack of practical guidance or instructions for students who are expected to play a pivotal role in learning during blended learning was noted. Thus, to fill this gap, a checklist was developed to outline the roles students were expected to play and specific behaviors expected of them within blended learning. Initially, a set of preliminary items comprising 16 statements across 3 categories, namely, “student-agency,” “collaboration for collective learning,” and “responsible digital utilization,” was derived through literature review and written inquiries. These items were refined and categorized based on expert opinions. Subsequently, a questionnaire survey targeting teachers was conducted to validate the relevance of these preliminary items, revealing that while most items in the “student-agency” and “collaboration for collective learning” categories were integrated into two factors comprising 16 statements, they were not distinctly separated from each other. As a result, a final checklist comprising 16 items grouped into two categories, “student-agency and collaborative learning participation” and “technical and environmental support for learning,” was developed. The finding that items related to individual student-agency and mutual collaboration did not segregate underscores the need for further research by re-evaluating the meaning of autonomy and practically understanding autonomy and collaboration. This suggests the necessity for additional studies rooted in the refinement and expansion of concepts and the exploration of specific practical applications. Expectations are set for this checklist to help facilitate and support blended learning through future efforts aimed at refining concepts, maximizing understanding, and exploring practical implementation methods.

Indonesia is a country that has a very high level of seismicity. It is necessary to plan a building structure that can withstand the earthquake load. Indonesia has adopted guidelines on earthquake resistance planning procedures for buildings and non-buildings. This guideline uses the Performance-Based Seismic Design (PBSD) concept. Performance-Based Plastic Design (PBPD) is a structural analysis with the concept of energy methods which was initially used on steel structures. For reinforced concrete structures this method can also be used using the C2 coefficient. To determine the performance level of structures designed using the Performance-Based Plastic Design method, an analysis of the five-story reinforced concrete structure was carried out. Next, the structure will be analyzed using pushover loads. From the structural performance analysis, the structural ductility value based on Performance-Based Plastic Design (PBPD) was 3.014. The performance level is based on the capacity spectrum at the immediate occupancy level.

OBJECTIVES: To (1) provide position-specific normative data for isometric cervical muscle strength and endurance in professional, male rugby players and (2) assess the relationship between age, height, weight, and playing position with cervical muscle strength and endurance.

DESIGN: Cross-sectional study.

METHODS: Professional rugby players completed peak isometric cervical strength testing followed by a test of cervical muscle endurance. Descriptive statistics for continuous variables with strength normalized to body weight were performed. Multiple linear regression was used to estimate associations between strength measurements.

RESULTS: In total, 136 players participated including front-row forwards (27%), other forwards (28%), and backs (45%). Front-row forwards had significantly greater peak isometric cervical muscle strength than other position groups, with backs having the lowest strength. Extension produced the highest force for all 3 position groups (429 N ± 104 N), whereas flexion produced the least (275 N ± 65 N). Age was associated with increased isometric cervical muscle strength. There was a statistically significant relationship between peak flexion strength and flexion endurance ( P = .003). The average time for the endurance tests were 55.7 (±17.1) seconds and 52.9 (±20.1) seconds for extension and flexion, respectively. Other forwards had lower cervical extension muscle endurance than backs and front-row forwards.

CONCLUSIONS: Normative values for peak and endurance isometric strength in professional rugby players illustrate significant differences between playing position. Consider age, body weight, and intraindividual variability when interpreting cervical strength and endurance results. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2024;54(3):201-208.

OBJECTIVES: To (1) compare activity-related psychological factors between individuals with and without knee conditions, and (2) assess associations between these factors and objective measures of function in individuals with knee conditions.

DESIGN: A priori registered systematic review with meta-analysis.

LITERATURE SEARCH: MEDLINE-Ovid, Embase-Ovid, Scopus-Elsevier, CINAHL-EBSCO, SPORTDiscus-EBSCO, and Cochrane Library were searched to May 27, 2022.

STUDY SELECTION CRITERIA: We included peer-reviewed primary data studies (observational and experimental) of human participants with and without knee conditions reporting knee confidence, fear of movement/avoidance beliefs, and/or psychological readiness to return to sport (RTS) or reporting correlations between these factors and objective measures of function in knee conditions.

DATA SYNTHESIS: Where possible, data were pooled by knee conditions, otherwise performed narrative syntheses. The Downs and Black checklist assessed the methodological quality of the included studies.

RESULTS: Forty studies (3546 participants with knee conditions; 616 participants without knee conditions) were included. There was very low–certainty evidence of higher fear of movement in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (standardized mean difference [SMD], 0.46; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.41, 0.52), but not in individuals with patellofemoral pain (SMD, 0.66; 95% CI: −7.98, 9.29) when compared with those without knee conditions. There was very low–certainty evidence of no differences in psychological readiness to RTS after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (SMD, −1.14; 95% CI: −2.97, 0.70) compared to no knee condition, and negligible to weak positive correlations between psychological readiness to RTS and objective measures of function.

CONCLUSION: There was very low–certainty evidence of higher fear of movement in individuals with knee osteoarthritis compared to those without, and very low–certainty evidence of no correlations between these factors and objective measures of function following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the accuracy of an artificial intelligence chatbot to clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) recommendations for providing answers to complex clinical questions on lumbosacral radicular pain.

DESIGN: Cross-sectional study.

METHODS: We extracted recommendations from recent CPGs for diagnosing and treating lumbosacral radicular pain. Relative clinical questions were developed and queried to OpenAI’s ChatGPT (GPT-3.5). We compared ChatGPT answers to CPGs recommendations by assessing the (1) internal consistency of ChatGPT answers by measuring the percentage of text wording similarity when a clinical question was posed 3 times, (2) reliability between 2 independent reviewers in grading ChatGPT answers, and (3) accuracy of ChatGPT answers compared to CPGs recommendations. Reliability was estimated using Fleiss’ kappa (κ) coefficients, and accuracy by interobserver agreement as the frequency of the agreements among all judgments.

RESULTS: We tested 9 clinical questions. The internal consistency of text ChatGPT answers was unacceptable across all 3 trials in all clinical questions (mean percentage of 49%, standard deviation of 15). Intrareliability (reviewer 1: κ = 0.90, standard error [SE] = 0.09; reviewer 2: κ = 0.90, SE = 0.10) and interreliability (κ = 0.85, SE = 0.15) between the 2 reviewers was “almost perfect.” Accuracy between ChatGPT answers and CPGs recommendations was slight, demonstrating agreement in 33% of recommendations.

CONCLUSION: ChatGPT performed poorly in internal consistency and accuracy of the indications generated compared to clinical practice guideline recommendations for lumbosacral radicular pain. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2024;54(3):222-228. Epub 29 January 2024. doi:10.2519/jospt.2024.12151

Published: January 2024

В статье рассматриваются теоретические аспекты комплексного изучения традиционного образа жизни. Новизна работы состоит в том, что в научный оборот впервые вводится такое направление, как антропология традиционного образа жизни (АТОЖ) в контексте подходов исторической и экономической антропологии. Антропология традиционного образа жизни – новое научное направление, исследующее условия, формы и показатели жизнедеятельности людей, проживающих в сельской местности, занятых преимущественно в традиционных отраслях хозяйства. Целью статьи является постановка проблемы исследования АТОЖ на примере хозяйственной деятельности коренного сельского населения Республики Саха (Якутия). Для достижения цели были решены следующие задачи: изучена историография по традиционному образу жизни, обозначены базовые показатели для исследования АТОЖ. Работа выполнена с применением традиционных общенаучных и исторических методов, подходов исторической и экономической антропологии, междисциплинарных исследований. Предварительно обоснованы предлагаемые подходы исторической и экономической антропологии в изучении заявленного направления. На данном этапе результатами проведенного исследования являются предложенные авторами четыре группы показателей, раскрывающих исторически освоенные ландшафты, реконструкцию расселения и динамику численности населения, характеристику традиционной хозяйственной деятельности и отношения человека к труду. Данные показатели, по мнению авторов, должны быть проанализированы в исторической динамике.
Ethnical Resources in Local Strategies Development of Northern Yakutia

В статье анализируются особенности использования ресурсов этничности коренными сообществами северной Якутии. Исследование основано преимущественно на данных, собранных автором в ходе полевой работы на территории Аллаиховского и Нижнеколымского районов республики Саха (Якутия) среди эвенов, юкагиров, чукчей, русских старожилов. Целью работы является исследование значения этничности на территории северной Якутии в качестве адаптивного механизма местного населения, позволяющего получать дополнительные материальные и символические ресурсы, отстаивать локальные интересы и реализовывать программы развития региона. Исходя из поставленной цели, определены следующие задачи: 1) исследовать региональный опыт реализации проектов, апеллирующих к этничности, на примере указанных улусов; 2) отразить связь ресурсов этничности с повседневностью местных жителей в условиях экономической и природной нестабильности; 3) соотнести рассмотренные примеры с выбранным концептуальным подходом. Статья базируется на методах полевого этнографического исследования (наблюдение, интервью), насыщенном описании, структурно-типологическом методе. Концептуальным инструментом выступает понятие этнического социального капитала, под которым понимается набор материальных и символических ресурсов, воспринимаемых группой людей как этнические и таким образом позиционируемых для достижения целей отдельных лиц и социальных групп. По П. Бурдье, смысл производства связей в рамках социального капитала заключается не в трансформации социального статуса, как предполагают обряды перехода, но в увеличении связей и присоединении дополнительных ресурсов. В таком случае локальные проекты развития, основанные на использовании этничности, могут рассматриваться как стратегии приумножения социального капитала и как механизм его конвертации в материальные и символические блага. Следовательно, использование этничности оказывается важным способом производства, получения и эксплуатации ресурсов на севере Якутии, влияющим на повседневную жизнь местного населения. В статье показано, что этничность направлена не только на пассивную демонстрацию достигнутого статуса, она выступает также важным инструментом действия, нацеленным на преобразование текущего состояния группы.
