Meiotic pairing through barcode-like satellite DNA repeats
Authors: Jagannathan Madhav , Skrutl Lena , Ropp Corin , Sintsova Anna
Published: December 2024

During meiosis, chromosomes must find, pair and synapse with their homologous partner in the crowded milieu of the nucleus, without being entangled by non-homologous chromosomes1. Generally, homology detection is thought to rely on recombination between the homologous chromosomes. However, pairing and synapsis can occur in the absence of recombination2–9, suggesting alternate mechanisms which discriminate between homologous and non-homologous associations. In many eukaryotes, tandem repeats known as satellite DNA are known to facilitate inter-chromosomal associations10. Notably, their non-uniform distribution across chromosomes gives rise to homologue-specific satellite DNA ‘barcodes’11–13, which have been speculated to enable meiotic pairing14–17. However, the inability to manipulate these repeats in most model organisms means that satellite DNA function in meiotic pairing remains actively debated. Here, we use satellite DNA deletion, duplication, and translocation strains that are unique to Drosophila to demonstrate that repeat mismatches destabilize meiotic pairing, particularly at centromeres and pericentromeres. In the absence of satellite DNA, meiotic pairing is disrupted by the HORMAD protein, Mad2, and condensin II activity while a pachytene checkpoint 2 (pch2)-dependent meiotic delay can restore pairing. Furthermore, compromised homologue pairing is strongly correlated with mid-oogenesis cell death, a quality control mechanism that likely culls defective oocytes to prevent chromosome mis-segregation and aneuploidy. Finally, we observe defective pairing and oocyte death in the progeny of D. melanogaster natural populations that have diverged in their satellite DNA content. Therefore, our findings resolve the debate on satellite DNA functionality by providing direct evidence for a role in meiotic pairing. We propose that this repeat-based pairing mechanism exerts an underappreciated selective pressure, constraining the divergence of these rapidly evolving tandem repeats within interbreeding natural populations.

Published: December 2024

Parasitic Meloidogyne incognita root-knot nematodes (RKNs) represent one of the most serious eggplant (Solanum melongena) biotic stress problems. We evaluated 47 eggplant genotypes, including three cultivated eggplant, 13 wild accessions, and 31 eggplant prebreeding materials (S. melongena introgressed with wild relatives), to determine their resistance to M. incognita based on disease severity (%), gall number/plant, and egg mass number/plant. Wide variability in resistance was noticed among the tested genotypes. Solanum sisymbriifolium SIS1 and the eggplant line F2-10, which has introgressions from S. incanum INC1, had the highest resistance to nematode infestation, with the lowest disease severity (1.43% and 8.86%, respectively), gall number, gall index, egg mass index, and number of egg masses. Additionally, accession S. anguivi ANG1 displayed moderate resistance. Interestingly, S. sisymbriifolium SIS1 had the highest root, shoot, and total fresh weights. S. anguivi ANG1 had the next highest root and total fresh weights. This study provides novel sources of resistance to nematodes, and these resistant materials could be used in breeding programs to develop RKN-resistant eggplant cultivars or as resistant rootstocks for eggplant and tomato crops.
Implementasi Metode Pembelajaran Beyond Center and Circle Times (BCCT) di RA Al-Huda Kota Samarinda Dengan Metode Rolling Sentra: Meningkatkan Kualitas Pembelajaran
Authors: Julaiha Siti , Malik Lina Revilla
Published: December 2024

This study aims to describe the implementation of the Beyond Center and Circle Time (BCCT) learning method with the student rotation method from one class to another (Rolling) at RA Al-Huda Samarinda City, and its impact on improving the quality of early childhood education. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. The research results show that the teachers at RA Al-Huda have implemented rolling by dividing the class into several activity centers. Each center is rotated in turn, so that students have an equal opportunity. This rolling system has proven effective in increasing children's interest in learning, creating a variety of engaging activities for children, and developing children's abilities holistically. However, there are challenges in managing transitions between centers, but the teachers at RA Al-Huda overcome these challenges by providing individual guidance, using motivational techniques, and simplifying transitions between centers. Overall, the implementation of the BCCT method with a rolling system at RA Al-Huda has had a positive impact on improving the quality of early childhood education.
The use of video as a resource for the development of L1 Foundation Phase Literacy in isiXhosa: a digital multimodal discourse approach
Authors:   , Schafli Sasha-Lee
Published: December 2024

Videos as a resource for African language L1 literacy development are strikingly absent from the South African school curriculum for the Foundation Phase (Grades 1 to 3). Furthermore, an overall lack of isiXhosa same language subtitling (SLS) practices in South Africa for videos poses questions as to the benefits and challenges of SLS for L1 early grade readers of isiXhosa. The aim of this research was to test, describe and analyse the efficacy of five isiXhosa YouTube story videos with SLS for the development of literacy in isiXhosa at the Grade 2 and 3 L1 levels. In this mixed-methods study, the five videos were exposed to Grade 2 and 3 learners at a school in the Eastern Cape in a quantitative two-group experimental design in a three-month intervention. This was to determine whether video exposure resulted in significant difference for learners' literacy, focusing particularly on word recognition, Oral Reading Fluency (ORF) scores and broad semiotic awareness between the linguistic and visual modes. The five videos were also analysed with a Digital Multimodal Discourse Analysis (DMDA), illustrating potential areas in which these five videos could assist or pose challenges to literacy learning in this context. While learners’ reading scores improved over the three-month intervention, nonparametric t-test results indicate SLS video exposure did not make a significant difference in learners’ reading improvements. Results from both methods were triangulated with cognitive theories of multimodal literacy and Mayer’s principles of learning with multimedia. The analysis highlights that while the videos’ design may be conducive for learning, the subtitle rate in the videos is far greater than the learners’ reading scores in this study or reading speed benchmarks expected of Grade 2 and 3 learners. This can result in these videos being ineffective as a resource to improve literacy in isiXhosa for this level. This research highlights the importance of the integration of multiple methods of analysis for multimodal resources, as well as the importance of subtitle rate as a system within a multimodal analysis for literacy research. Furthermore, Comparative Relations in Intersemiotic Texture is proposed as a useful system for examining learning resources. This research further suggests areas of focus for future video design in potential L1 Foundation Phase literacy resources for isiXhosa and other African languages.
Energy security framework: Аnalysing approaches to understanding security in Russia’s gas and energy sector
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Agashin Andrey V.
Published: December 2024

This paper analyzes the gas component of Russia’s energy security from the perspective of various
approaches to understanding energy security and its structure — from infrastructure security
to the price component of natural gas. The purpose of the study is to analyze the components
of energy security and assess the security of the Russian gas industry through the prism
of various approaches to understanding energy security. The subject of the study is the energy
security of the gas industry of the Russian Federation, considered from the perspective of various
elements of energy security. The research methodology includes a systematic approach, a
structural-functional approach, as well as the use of correlation analysis and statistics methods.
The work also provides an analysis of the dynamics of investments in the oil and gas sector and
the main indicators of liquidity and business activity of PJSC “Gazprom”, on the basis of which it
is concluded that the dependence of the largest enterprise on buyers and the turnover of receivables
has decreased, and on the other hand, the strengthening of new trends and factors, creating
risks and threats to the economic security of PJSC “Gazprom”. The security of the energy sector
can be understood as the security of several important components, such as physical security,
access to energy resources, a system including national policies and the activities of international
institutions, as well as investments. For Russia at present, the development of infrastructure and,
at the same time, access of the population and industry to energy resources, mainly near mining
areas, natural gas and oil fields, may be a priority. The results obtained may be useful for further
research and identification of promising areas of energy policy in the Russian Federation.

Authors: Jiang Nan , Zhang Yuelun , Liang Siyu , Lyu Xiaohong , Chen Shi , Huang Xiaoming , Pan Hui
Published: December 2024

Background

Virtual simulation (VS) is a developing education approach with the recreation of reality using digital technology. The teaching effectiveness of VSs compared to mannequins and real persons (RPs) has never been investigated in medical and nursing education.

Objective

This study aims to compare VSs and mannequins or RPs in improving the following clinical competencies: knowledge, procedural skills, clinical reasoning, and communication skills.

Methods

Following Cochrane methodology, a meta-analysis was conducted on the effectiveness of VSs in pre- and postregistration medical or nursing participants. The Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, and Educational Resource Information Centre databases were searched to identify English-written randomized controlled trials up to August 2024. Two authors independently selected studies, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias. All pooled estimates were based on random-effects models and assessed by trial sequential analyses. Leave-one-out, subgroup, and univariate meta-regression analyses were performed to explore sources of heterogeneity.

Results

A total of 27 studies with 1480 participants were included. Overall, there were no significant differences between VSs and mannequins or RPs in improving knowledge (standard mean difference [SMD]=0.08; 95% CI –0.30 to 0.47; I2=67%; P=.002), procedural skills (SMD=–0.12; 95% CI –0.47 to 0.23; I2=75%; P<.001), clinical reasoning (SMD=0.29; 95% CI –0.26 to 0.85; I2=88%; P<.001), and communication skills (SMD=–0.02; 95% CI: –0.62 to 0.58; I2=86%; P<.001). Trial sequential analysis for clinical reasoning indicated an insufficient sample size for a definitive judgment. For procedural skills, subgroup analyses showed that VSs were less effective among nursing participants (SMD=–0.55; 95% CI –1.07 to –0.03; I2=69%; P=.04). Univariate meta-regression detected a positive effect of publication year (β=.09; P=.02) on communication skill scores.

Conclusions

Given favorable cost-utility plus high flexibility regarding time and space, VSs are viable alternatives to traditional face-to-face learning modalities. The comparative effectiveness of VSs deserves to be followed up with the emergence of new technology. In addition, further investigation of VSs with different design features will provide novel insights to drive education reform.

Pandemic Disruptions and Their Consequences: A Comparative Analysis of Physical and Cognitive Development in Preschool Children (Preprint)
Authors: Song Huiqi , Wang Jingjing , Lau Patrick , Liu Jing , Shi Lei
Published: December 2024

BACKGROUND

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted the daily routines of preschool children, potentially impacting their fundamental movement skills (FMS), physical activity (PA), physical fitness (PF), and executive function (EF).

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to compare FMS, PA, PF, and EF in preschool children during the COVID-19 pandemic with those after its peak. It also investigated the associations between these components to inform potential interventions for cognitive and physical development.

METHODS

The study involved two cohorts of preschool children aged 5 to 6 years from four kindergartens in Zhuhai, China. Data were collected in two phases: the pandemic cohort during September to November 2021 and the post-pandemic cohort from September to November 2023. Participants' demographic data, anthropometric measurements, and performance in FMS, PA, PF, and EF were assessed. FMS was evaluated using the Test of Gross Motor Development, PA was monitored with accelerometers, and EF was measured through computerized tasks assessing cognitive flexibility, inhibitory control, and working memory. Statistical analyses included independent sample t-tests and generalized linear mixed models.

RESULTS

A total of 174 children participated in the pandemic cohort, and 189 in the post-pandemic cohort. Post-pandemic participants demonstrated significantly better performance in locomotor skills (p < 0.001), balance (p < 0.001), cardiorespiratory fitness (p = 0.002), flexibility (p < 0.001), muscular strength (p < 0.001), muscular endurance (p = 0.019), speed-agility (p < 0.001), inhibitory control (p < 0.001), and working memory (p = 0.004) compared to their pandemic peers. Conversely, pandemic participants exhibited higher scores in ball skills (p < 0.001) and spent more time in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) (p = 0.002). Notably, associations between FMS, PA, PF, and EF varied between cohorts, with PF positively correlating with EF components post-pandemic.

CONCLUSIONS

The findings highlight significant differences in FMS, PA, PF, and EF between preschool children during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The post-pandemic cohort showed improvements in various physical and cognitive skills, suggesting that interventions to restore and enhance these abilities are necessary. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the need for integrated approaches to support holistic development in preschool children, particularly in the wake of significant disruptions such as the pandemic.

Published: December 2024

Purpose: This study aims to assess food accessibility and its influencing factors among adults in Indonesia during the early COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: The research was cross-sectional and conducted using an online questionnaire that assessed sociodemographic characteristics, food access, physical access (enabling factors for individuals to reach food physically), financial access, social support, and coping strategies of the respondents. We included 439 adults, 358 females and 81 males, aged 20-62 years.
Results: This research found that physical access difficulties (aOR=3.945; CI:1.652-9.421; p=0.002), unemployment status (aOR=3.104; CI:1.436-6.712; p=0.004), and lower education level (aOR=2.819; CI:1.036-7.672; p=0.042) were associated with increased inability to access food. Meanwhile, coping strategies for food insecurity conditions (aOR=0.634; CI:0.536-0.750; p<0.001) were protective of the inability to access food (R2=0.298).
Conclusion: People with a high risk of unemployment and low education who will have difficulty accessing food in times of social restrictions should be protected.

Authors: Salim Mursalam , Mohammad Aldrin Akbar , Entis Sutisna , Aini Mawadda Anwar
Published: December 2024

Financial statement fraud is something that causes economic losses and results in a loss of investor confidence. Therefore, company management needs to identify what factors influence the company in committing fraud. One approach to detecting fraud is to use the fraud hexagon model. This model consists of stimulus, opportunity, rationalization, capability, ego, and collusion. This research is explanatory research that aims to investigate the possible factors of financial statement fraud using a fraud hexagon perspective. The objects used as research samples are 15 insurance companies registered on the IDX during 2019 - 2022. This research uses the F-Score model to separate companies that have experienced fraud and uses logistic regression as data analysis. The results of his study show that the elements of opportunity, rationalization, and ego influence financial statement fraud. Meanwhile, the elements of stimulus, capability, and collusion do not affect financial statement fraud.

Authors: Pujisari Yusti , Biyanto Frasto , Vidyaningrum Bunga , Affan Junaidi
Published: December 2024

In general, every student in accounting who has just taken accounting education has a positive attitude toward accounting. However, over the course of their study, the attitude is thought to change, both ini a positive and negative direction. This study aims to test whether there are differences between senior and junior accounting students in attitude towards  accounting as a discipline, accounting as a group activity, accounting as a profession and accounting as a career. The research was conducted using a questionnaire adopted from Accounting Attitudes Scale by Nelson and consisted of 15 question items. Research respondents were students of one university in Yogyakarta, which consisted of first semester students (junior students)  and final semester students (senior students). Total respondents obtained were 161 respondents. The research results from testing using Mann Whitney test showed that there was significantly difference in the attitude toward accounting as a discipline, accounting as a group activities, accounting as a profession and accounting as a career between yunior and senior students. The overall results of the hypothesis also show that the attitude scores of senior students are lower than those of junior students. This indicates a decrease in positive attitudes along with experience in learning accounting at the university
Robbery and Bullying: Protection Through Pageu Gampong Customary Law, and Islamic Law
Authors: Abdullah M Adli , Mansur Teuku Muttaqin , Sulaiman Sulaiman , Usman Musliadi Bin
Published: December 2024

The social resilience system of the Acehnese people is rooted in the pageu gampong tradition. The values of pageu gampong are defined as how the people of Aceh protect themselves from the flow of criminal behavior, robbery, bullying and community supervision based on customary law. This research aims to reveal the facts, situations and phenomena of robbery and bullying behavior in Acehnese society through the protection of the pageu gampong customary system. Data was collected through interviews and analyzed using a juridical-sociological and phenomenological approach. The results of the research show that the practice of robbery and bullying is influenced by lifestyle demands accompanied by economic limitations and weaknesses in socializing in society, due to neglect of the values contained in the pageu gampong tradition. Pageu gampong as a customary law system has values that are integrated with Islamic values and is able to protect the community from all forms of robbery and bullying behavior. However, the tendency of the legal system to be oriented towards positivism and the current pressure for social change also contributed to the fading of the values of pageu gampong as the strength of the social structure of Acehnese society. The values of pageu gampong still survive in Acehnese society which is under the legal system of the Acehnese government.
Translation of the Quran in Tolaki: a Perspective of Religious Moderation, and Islamic Law
Authors: Gunawan Fahmi , Khairunnisa Ainy
Published: December 2024

This study focuses on the study of the translation of the Qur'an in Tolaki culture in Southeast Sulawesi from the perspective of religious moderation and its influence on Islamic law, as well as the factors that influence the translation. The method used is the descriptive analysis of the verses of religious moderation in Tolaki culture and Islamic law. The results of the study indicate that the verses of religious moderation include national commitment, tolerance, peace, and adaptive culture. In translating the verses of religious moderation, the translators used translation techniques such as established equivalence, transposition, modulation, reduction, discursive creation, literalism, borrowing, compensation, explicitness, addition, and adaptation. Socio-culturally, the Tolaki people have several concepts of religious moderation that can prevent potential unrest and conflict, such as the concept of medulu (self-esteem; togetherness), mepokoaso (unity), meohai (loyalty to the leader), mbeohai (brotherhood), mbeohai (loyalty to the leader); mbeohai (brotherhood), mombokulaloi (respect), samaturu (mutual cooperation), mombehunggaia (openness), mbendeporombu (deliberation and consensus), meloo mbenao (humility), mondotu'a (peace), and mombalalo (tolerance). The implications for the Tolaki community in Southeast Sulawesi are seen in the relatively high attitude towards religious moderation. The values of local wisdom that are embraced facilitate expanding opportunities for sustainable harmony and peace while minimizing the prevalence of conflict in society.
Parentesco espiritual: tradições de pesquisa, bases teóricas e elementos para um diálogo necessário
Authors: Marques Rachel dos Santos
Published: December 2024

O artigo discute trajetórias de pesquisa e concepções teóricas do parentesco espiritual cristão (relações de compadrio, comadrio, apadrinhamento, amadrinhamento). Analisa elementos que são pertinentes a partir da perspectiva de quem estuda esse fenômeno no Brasil escravista presentes em trabalhos que não estudam o referido contexto. O argumento central é que, mudando o foco de análise e olhando para a produção exterior, pode-se levantar novas perguntas e hipóteses de trabalho, de modo a renovar esse campo de estudos. O olhar para a produção externa aponta para a importância de se considerar qual o significado desses laços sociais para aqueles que os engendravam em diferentes contextos, assim como o dinamismo existente nas formas e usos possíveis dessas relações. Esses dois aspectos, de maneira geral, têm sido ignorados pela historiografia a respeito do parentesco espiritual no Brasil escravista.
Estrangeiros nas forças armadas italianas durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial:
Authors: Bertonha Joao Fabio
Published: December 2024

Durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial, as Forças Armadas italianas incorporaram um número razoável de homens sem a cidadania italianas, especialmente italianos étnicos e cidadãos de países ocupados pela Itália, assim como emigrantes retornados do exterior. O presente artigo visa apresentar o sistema pelo qual estes estrangeiros ou emigrantes acabaram participando do esforço de guerra italiano, suas motivações e a do Estado italiano. Uma especial ênfase é dedicada às especificidades do sistema fascista (especialmente à divisão dos estrangeiros entre o Exército regular e a milícia fascista), de forma a rediscutirmos a contraposição entre o Estado e o partido fascista, tema clássico e ainda fundamental para o entendimento da natureza do regime fascista.
O pacto de Adriana: uma travessia rumo à elaboração do trauma
Authors: De Souza Fredrigo Fabiana , Oliveira Vilela Ana Lucia
Published: December 2024

Acusada de cometer violações aos direitos humanos durante a ditadura militar chilena (1973-1990), Adriana Rivas González, tia Chani, é uma das protagonistas do documentário de Lissette Orozco, intitulado O pacto de Adriana (2017). Sobrinha da ex-agente da DINA, a cineasta chilena busca evidências acerca do trabalho da tia. Paulatinamente, as evidências apontam para a culpabilidade de Rivas e a exposição de um segredo familiar. Durante a realização do filme, a dúvida de Lissette ultrapassa as fronteiras da família e alcança o espaço público. Nesse sentido, este artigo pretende explorar três questões: 1) o processo de elaboração do trauma da ditadura militar chilena, via produção cinematográfica; 2) a relação entre o segredo familiar (espaço privado) e a história do país (espaço público), na composição da narrativa documental; 3) o vínculo entre as narrativas psicanalítica e histórica, expresso nos recursos estéticos do filme (metalinguagem). Tais questões chamaram nossa atenção porque expõem as distinções entre as culturas políticas brasileira e chilena, conduzindo-nos a refletir sobre como cada qual lida com a elaboração do passado traumático.
Escravidão, liberdade, narrativas museais e histórias contestadas no Museu Afro Brasil e Museu Nacional de História e Cultura Afro-Americana
Authors: Abreu Marcelo
Published: December 2024

Esse texto pretende contribuir para compreender a musealização da luta pela liberdade e da escravidão e seu impacto na transformação das narrativas nacionais. O texto também aponta para  as mudanças nos museus como dispositivos culturais. O Museu Afro-Brasil, criado em São Paulo em 2004, e o Museu Nacional de História e Cultura Africano Americana (NMAAHC), aberto em Washington em 2016, permitem perceber como a experiência histórica da liberdade e da escravidão, bem como da persistência do racismo, se entrelaçam com outros eventos e processos históricos próprios de suas respectivas culturas nacionais e de processos históricos como a diáspora africana. As narrativas resultantes diferem em relação às formas como o tempo histórico é incorporado no espaço. No NHMACC a exposição evolui numa tensão entre liberdade e não-liberdade, e igualdade e desigualdade na história dos Estados da Unidade, enquanto no Museu Afro-Brasil a narrativa afirma a contribuição afro-brasileira para a cultura nacional numa expografia que privilegia a simultaneidade dos tempos e espaços históricos. Nos dois casos, as histórias nacionais hegemônicas são francamente contestadas, sugerindo aos visitantes outras visões sobre a história que partilhamos. Considerando a abertura de suas narrativas, ambas as narrativas apresentam casos bons para pensar as transformações da memória da escravidão e das lutas por liberdade e os rituais de cidadania que os museus possibilitam.

Published: December 2024

Information security is a critical aspect for organizations, and a problem in this regard consists ofknowing the level of vulnerability in which organizations. Therefore, this article aims to present a CybersecurityFramework (FSRA) based on the ISO/IEC 27002:2022 standard. In addition, a Fuzzy Risk Inference System(FRIS) is presented, which uses FSRA controls - Security Practices (SP), Software (S), and People (P) asinput, a total of 93 sub-items. A FRIS output is the Security Risk (SR) in which the organization is due tonon-compliance or partial compliance with FSRA controls. Thus, if each control is fully met, its entry value in theFRIS will be 100%. Otherwise, it will be proportional. Therefore, when the FRIS returns the SR, whose outputvalues can be Low (13% to 39.99%), Medium (40% to 59.99%), or High (60% to 100%), the security analyst canmeasure the risk security, in which the organization is located, according to ISO/IEC 27002:2022 and from thatknow where to act and how to act.
Navigating through continuity and innovation

Published: December 2024

This article addresses the first hundred days of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's third term as president of Brazil in the context of international migration and refuge. The paper aims to analyse the “intermestic” characteristics of foreign policy and its relationship with the formulation of specific guidelines on migration. Using documentary sources and interviews, we examine the context in which Lula took charge, which was marked by the recognition of “prima facie” refugee status for Venezuelan citizens, the elaboration of a national migration policy, and the definition of the future of Operation Welcome. Our objective is to reflect on the main challenges faced by the new government concerning migration and refugee issues, considering the historical construction of the agenda in the last two decades. We conclude that the current focus is on revamping crucial policies to ensure the smooth operation of orderly migration within the country, as these practices have been gradually dismantled in recent years. Besides, we highlight that the future of Operation Welcome remains uncertain at this stage.

O performer, a presença cênica e o estado de fruição
Authors: Koehler Karam Natália , Sousa Pereira Sayonara
Published: December 2024

Este ensaio investiga a presença cênica, explorando a interação entre corpo-mente, ação-autoconsciência, performer-figura cênica e vivacidade-estrutura cênica com base na pesquisa do performer/guerreiro, prática de treino para o performer inspirada em artes marciais. A autora vivenciou essa prática no Instituto Grotowski, na Polônia, por 14 meses, e a continua na Cia de Teatro Físico Pássaro de Presságio, em São Paulo. No centro dessa pesquisa estão os conceitos flow e presença radical. O flow, proposto por Csikszentmihalyi (1985), representa um estado de pleno envolvimento na atividade, caracterizado por concentração profunda, fusão entre ação e consciência, transcendência do eu e ausência de autorreflexão. A presença radical, conforme proposto por Fischer-Lichte (2008), refere-se a estar plenamente presente no momento, eliminando a dicotomia entre corpo e mente. Para pensar estes conceitos através de experiências a autora entrevistou o diretor e performers da companhia estúdio Kokyu (Polônia) que praticam o performer/guerreiro.
Arte drag e montação: alternativas para o tensionamento da normalidade no ensino da arte
Authors: Martins Speckart Jeanne , Monge Aguilar Gina María
Published: December 2024

Com referenciais feministas interseccional, queer, pós-estruturalista, trans e pós-humano, o artigo trata de apresentar uma alternativa de corrosão (po)ética das estruturas de poder que impõem um padrão de normalidade corporal. No contexto de oficinas de iniciação à Arte Drag, busca um desdobramento prático do conceito de "Pe-drag-ogia". Uma perspectiva de não-aniquilamento e uma compreensão da Arte Drag como tradição mascarada pertencente à população LGBTQIAPN+ são princípios basilares abordados para a construção de uma didática fundada nas Artes Cênicas em prol da formação de Drag Queens, Kings e Queers. O trabalho narra alguns aspectos da experiência pedagógica Drag e descreve três exercícios para a sala de aula.

Reflexões Sobre a Prática em Dança Como Pesquisa
Authors: Barbosa Vivian Vieira Peçanha
Published: December 2024

Como práticas de dança se configuram enquanto pesquisa? Que conhecimentos podem surgir de tais práticas? Que ferramentas ou métodos podem ajudar a dar suporte à prática como pesquisa em dança? Estas e outras perguntas atravessam o texto, que se baseia nas descobertas metodológicas realizadas no processo de doutoramento que resultou na tese intitulada "Entre o cultivo e a espera: caminhos para uma poética de permanência e transformação na dança" (Barbosa, 2019). Aqui se encontram reflexões que auxiliam em uma breve delimitação do campo da Prática como Pesquisa (PcP) enquanto horizonte metodológico possível para investigações em dança. Além disso, apresenta-se uma síntese do Processo de Articulações Criativas (PAC), de Jane Bacon e Vida Midgelow (2014), enquanto método receptivo à autonomia de pesquisadores em seu uso, incentivando, justamente, as descobertas de caminhos à medida em que se caminha com a pesquisa. O texto aponta para a necessidade de um movimento "para fora" do processo de investigação que ajuda a desembaraçar os fios desse emaranhado criativo. Tal movimento, por sua vez, exige um voltar-se "para dentro", no sentido de se exercitar a capacidade de olhar, reconhecer e nomear o que se faz nas práticas criativas de dança.
THE CROSSROADS BETWEEN ACTORS, NORMS, PRACTICES AND INSTITUTIONS
Authors: Aguilar Sérgio
Published: December 2024

Intergovernmental organisations and institutions are generally created to discuss and find collective solutions to problems that transcend national borders and individual states’ capacities. However, certain crises push for isolated, typically restrictive, actions from governments, making the role of such institutions somewhat murky. The South American Conference on Migration (SCM), the Specialized Migration Forum of the Southern Common Market (Mercosur), and the Andean Committee of Migration Authorities of the Andean Community of Nations (CAN) are three intergovernmental forums that were created with the aim of negotiating agreements, creating and implementing community legislation, and achieving regional policy with regards to migration. However, from 2015, mass migration from Venezuela, which was considered a crisis by South American governments, led to restrictive policies in some countries. In this context, this paper discusses the linkages between institutions, actors, norms and practices by examining the interactions between SCM, Mercosur and CAN and the practices of Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru regarding the Venezuelan migration crisis. Through a qualitative approach, observations of practice and discourse, and the critical analysis thereof, this paper discusses debates and decisions within institutions; the emergence and non-compliance of collective norms; and the contradictory practices employed as responses to the migration crisis.
UNAVOIDABLE CLASHES: EXPLORING THE IMPLICATIONS OF A CHINA-RUSSIA ALLIANCE ON GLOBAL GEOPOLITICS
Authors: Yakhshilikov Sanjar
Published: December 2024

The current relations between China and Russia are the result of the rapprochement policies of both countries. Shared fears about US hegemony, mutual economic benefits, and strong links between Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin escalated Sino-Russia relations into a new stage. Russia needs regional security in Southeast Asia, and even though the strategic interests of China and Russia do not match over the region, they are both eager to contain the US. Recent Russia – Ukraine border issues are well-matched with China – Taiwan issues that also make the states feel mutuality between them. The results of the two issues may be the same. Moscow is making sure as time goes by that rapprochement with the West is impossible, Russia is going to suffer from economic sanctions, and the West has already begun decoupling. Despite all of the partnerships and mutuality, China and Russia are still not allies. The inactive confrontations between the two outnumber all of the abovementioned positives.
AQUISIÇÃO DE LINGUAGEM, CONTATOS LINGUÍSTICOS E REMARCAÇÃO PARAMÉTRICA NO PORTUGUÊS DO BRASIL
Authors: Baldoino Silva Jacson , Silva de Farias Araújo Silvana
Published: December 2024

Este artigo aborda a aquisição de linguagem sob a perspectiva da Teoria de Princípios e Parâmetros, considerando a influência dos contatos linguísticos na aquisição irregular da língua e o processo de remarcação paramétrica do Parâmetro do Sujeito Nulo no português brasileiro. A discussão se dá a partir do que chamamos de uma Sociolinguística Paramétrica de Contato, uma ampliação de Tarallo (1987) e Tarallo e Kato (1989), que interseccionaram a Teoria de Princípios e Parâmetros (CHOMSKY; LASNICK, 2021 [1993]) e a Teoria da Variação e Mudança (WEINREICH; LABOV; HERZOG, 2006 [1968]). Essa proposta acrescenta ao estudo de remarcação paramétrica do português brasileiro o elemento da formação sócio-histórica das comunidades de fala, principalmente as situações de contatos linguísticos vividos no Brasil Colônia e no Império, investigando como o processo de aquisição irregular (LUCCHESI; BAXTER, 2009; LUCCHESI; RIBEIRO, 2009; SILVA; ALMEIDA, 2023), no contexto afro-brasileiro, pode ter sido o elemento propulsor da remarcação do Parâmetro do Sujeito Nulo no português brasileiro, tendo em vista que a aquisição de linguagem é influenciada por fatores sociais e biológicos, bem como desempenha um papel central nas mudanças linguísticas.
COMO LER O MANIFESTO DO SURREALISMO (1924) DE ANDRÉ BRETON? ELEMENTOS INTRODUTÓRIOS
Authors: Ponge Robert
Published: December 2024

Com suas recusas e valorizações, o Manifesto do surrealismo (1924), do poeta francês André Breton (1896-1966), assumiu uma grande importância no contexto das ideias, da cultura, das artes, da poesia e, ainda, no universo político, tanto do período em que foi lançado como no subsequente, até hoje. Tendo presente a difícil leitura e entendimento do seu conteúdo e, não raro, a acusação de obscuridade e hermetismo contra o mesmo, o presente artigo tem como objetivo se debruçar sobre o texto, buscando identificar os elementos precípuos que nortearam a abordagem de Breton e que vão configurar a essência do surrealismo. Para tal, e com o intuito de facilitar a compreensão da referida publicação, utiliza-se da vivência docente do autor sobre o tema e dos acúmulos de experiência que a mesma propiciou, com o entendimento, outrossim, que tal aproximação possibilita um desvendamento e valorização ainda maiores do Manifesto.
EXPRESSAR POR ESCRITO ÀQUILO QUE NÃO SE SENTE É UMA RELAÇÃO PERIGOSA
Authors: Braz Rafael Francisco
Published: December 2024

No século XVIII, principalmente na sociedade aristocrática francesa, de todas as formas literárias, àquela que se apresentou com maior desenvolvimento, lançando mão constantemente de novas técnicas narrativas e estilísticas, foi o romance epistolar. Nessa linha de raciocínio, propor-se neste estudo, compreender o sentimento de dissimulação presentes na obra Ligações Perigosas, do escritor Choderlos de Laclos, a partir de um estudo analítico psicológico. O eixo teórico norteador da nossa pesquisa circunscreve na relação da Psicologia e à Literatura ancorando nos pensamentos de Souza (2005), Jung (1991) e Chklovski (1976) como também, na relação da personalidade de Silva (2008), Von Franz (2002), Grinberg (1997) dentre outros. Quanto à abordagem metodológica da pesquisa, no que concerne à abordagem, esta se classifica como qualitativa, que se caracteriza pela qualificação dos dados coletados, durante a análise. O desenho metodológico se instaura no ato dialógico a partir da interlocução dos enunciados entre Psicologia e Literatura. Em nossas análises, foi possível constatar o quanto à sombra é doloroso, e o quanto nos deixa cada vez menos conscientes a sua personificação no arquétipo do ser, o caso da Marquesa de Merteuil e do Visconde de Valmont, são exemplos nítidos de tal constatação.
An experimental study of flame spread over the bamboo slab of different inclination angles and thicknesses
Authors: Sun Penghui , Zhou Kuibin , Li Zhi

Bamboo as a new type of building material, is an alternative raw material for
wood and wood-based composites, but its burning could result in fire
disaster. The aim of this study was to examine the surface flame spread
behavior over the inclined bamboo slab. A series of experiments were
conducted using bamboo slabs with thicknesses of 2.5 mm, 3.5 mm, and 5 mm.
The flame morphology, flame spread rate, and mass loss rate versus the
inclination angle and thickness were measured and physically explained. The
results show that the flame spread rate increases with increasing
inclination angle of slab and decreases with increasing slab thickness. The
mass loss rate is positively affected by the inclination angle, while it is
little influenced by the slab thickness. The available flame spread models
of thermally thin and thick solid materials underestimate the measured flame
spread rates over bamboo slabs. But the thermally thick solid flame spread
model is comparatively suitable for the bamboo conditions in this paper. The
findings of this study can support the fire permanence design of bamboo
structural buildings.
