Mourning the Human? Posthuman Death and Ontological Vulnerability in Jeff VanderMeer’s The Southern Reach Trilogy
Authors: Ferrández-Sanmiguel María
Published: January 2025

This article reads Jeff VanderMeer’s The Southern Reach trilogy from the perspectives of critical posthumanism and trauma theory, paying particular attention to how the two discourses perceive the relationship between self and other, the vulnerability of the human and the expectation of death. The discussion is articulated against the background of the trilogy’s explicit concern with the reconfiguration of the human and with the Anthropocene. This is carried out through an exploration of classical and recent definitions of trauma after its encounter with environmental degradation and under the threat of human extinction. As it is contended, the trilogy invites us to imagine an end to humanity that is not also the end of life on the planet. While this might be read in the key of horror or induce feelings of anxiety or mourning, it compels us to confront the ethical implications of our embeddedness to the natural world and our shared vulnerability. The article ultimately argues in favor of the power of the imagination to spark change.
Clause Initial Null Subjects in Web-based Written Language
Authors: Tamaredo Iván
Published: January 2025

Null subjects in English(es) are a phenomenon that has recently received much attention in the specialized literature. However, most studies are based on small datasets and samples of varieties due to the difficulty of extracting null subjects from corpora. The present paper is a first step towards the automatization of the data retrieval process of null subjects and analyzes a much larger sample of cases and varieties than previous research, namely, Australian, Canadian, Jamaican, Singaporean, Nigerian, Indian, Bangladeshi and Pakistani Englishes. By focusing on referential and non-referential third person singular clause initial null and overt subjects, a variationist examination of the data is conducted by means of mixed-effects logistic regression analyses which shows that non-referential null subjects are a much more pervasive and stable phenomenon in World Englishes than their referential counterparts. In addition, a cline of varieties emerges with respect to referential null subjects: these null subjects are more frequent the more advanced varieties are in Schneider’s Dynamic Model.
Gender-based Variation in the Perception of Northern Irish Accents in Performance
Authors: Díaz Sierra Sara
Published: January 2025

This paper builds on previous research that explores the relationship between gender and language perception (Bishop et al., 2005; Coupland & Bishop, 2007). It investigates the influence of speakers’ gender and listeners’ gender, two variables that have been usually examined separately, on how voices with Northern Irish English (NIrE) accents are rated on the traditional dimensions of prestige and pleasantness. The questionnaire responses of 138 informants from Northern Ireland reveal two main trends: (1) female respondents award more favourable ratings on prestige and pleasantness than males; and (2) female voices are evaluated more positively than male voices. These trends corroborate previous findings by Bishop et al. (2005) and Coupland and Bishop (2007). Finally, this study also shows that the first of these trends is reversed when informants evaluate the voices on the Mild-Broad and Intelligible-Unintelligible scales, where the ratings by male participants are more favourable that those given by women.
The role of institutional isomorphism in explaining the voluntary IFRS adoption
Authors: GIner Begoña , Merello Paloma , Nakamura Miho , Pardo Francisca
Published: January 2025

Since 2005, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) have been widely used on a mandatory basis worldwide, but some countries are relevant exceptions to this policy. Based on the institutional isomorphism framework, this study examines the reasons why listed companies voluntarily adopt IFRS in a very specific environment: Japan. Using financial and non-financial data, we conduct a comprehensive investigation of the determinants of IFRS adoption. We use a multi-period logit model that takes into account all annual decisions made during the period 2013-2018. We confirm that both coercive and normative isomorphism associated with some legislative changes, together with mimetic isomorphism embedded in Japanese culture, lead firms to adopt IFRS rather than Japanese General Accepted Accounting Principles (J-GAAP). These findings suggest that the legitimacy of IFRS makes this set of standards a more appropriate reporting system to deal with the uncertainty associated with the country's openness to the outside world.

Desde 2005, las Normas Internacionales de Información Financiera (NIIF) se utilizan con carácter obligatorio en gran parte del mundo, pero algunos países constituyen excepciones relevantes a esta política. Basándose en el marco del isomorfismo institucional, este estudio investiga las razones que explican por qué las empresas que cotizan en bolsa adoptan voluntariamente las NIIF en un entorno muy particular: Japón. Utilizando datos financieros y no financieros, llevamos a cabo una investigación exhaustiva de los factores determinantes de los adoptantes. Empleamos un modelo logit multiperiodo que considera todas las decisiones anuales tomadas durante el periodo 2013-2018. Confirmamos que el isomorfismo coercitivo, así como el normativo, asociado con algunos cambios legislativos, junto con el isomorfismo mimético, arraigado en la cultura japonesa, hacen que las empresas adopten las NIIF en lugar de los Principios de Contabilidad Generalmente Aceptados en Japón (J-GAAP). Estos resultados sugieren que la legitimidad de las NIIF hace de este conjunto de normas un sistema de información más adecuado para hacer frente a la incertidumbre relacionada con la apertura del país al exterior.

Authors: Vázquez Oteo Orencio , Garcia-Torea Nicolas , De la Cuesta-González Marta
Published: January 2025

This study develops an anti-corruption accountability framework covering relevant thematic aspects and indicators that stakeholders require to assess firms’ commitment to fighting corrupt practices. Relying on dialogic accountability premises, the study performs a research engagement exercise with Spanish stakeholders organized in two phases to gather and integrate their multiple views. First, semi-structured interviews were held with actors representing relevant constituencies to identify key thematic aspects to assess firms’ anti-corruption. Second, a focus group was organized with representatives of information users to define a set of suitable indicators to evaluate those aspects. The resulting anti-corruption accountability framework consists of 68 indicators that evaluate 27 key thematic aspects grouped into four overarching blocks. By helping make corporations accountable for managing corruption, the study offers insights to policy-makers and managers, particularly in the EU, where firms are mandated to report on anti-corruption. From a methodological perspective, the study shows the instrumentality of dialogic accountability to design spaces where firms and stakeholders can collaboratively interact and discuss the information the former should provide to allow the latter to assess corporate commitment on social and environmental topics, such as anti-corruption.

Este estudio propone un marco de rendición de cuentas en materia de anticorrupción que cubre aspectos temáticos e indicadores relevantes que las grupos de interés requieren para evaluar el compromiso de las empresas para combatir las prácticas corruptas. Basándose en premisas que sustentan el enfoque dialógico, el estudio desarrolla un ejercicio de investigación colaborativa con grupos de interés españoles organizado en dos fases para recopilar e integrar sus múltiples puntos de vista. Primero, se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas con actores que representaban a grupos de interés relevantes para identificar aspectos temáticos considerados clave para evaluar la lucha contra la corrupción por parte de las empresas. Luego, se organizó un grupo focal con representantes de potenciales usuarios de la información para definir un conjunto de indicadores adecuados para evaluar esos aspectos. El marco de rendición de cuentas resultante consta de 68 indicadores que evalúan 27 aspectos temáticos clave agrupados en cuatro bloques generales. Los resultados del trabajo son útiles para los reguladores y gerentes, particularmente en la UE, donde las empresas deben informar sobre anticorrupción. Desde una perspectiva metodológica, el estudio muestra la utilidad del enfoque dialógico en contabilidad para diseñar espacios donde las empresas y las partes interesadas puedan interactuar, colaborar y discutir la información que las primeras deben proporcionar para permitir que las segundas evalúen el compromiso corporativo en materia de cuestiones sociales y medioambientales, como la lucha contra la corrupción.
Effectiveness of Homoeopathic Constitutional Medicine In Improving Growth Standards In Children With Reference To WHO & IAP – Pediatric Growth Chart
Authors: Shruti Taragi
Published: January 2025

Background: Persistent inadequate calorie intake can hinder children's growth, leading to a cumulative impact on linear growth. This global concern manifests as stunted height growth and subsequent weight loss, known as wasting, indicative of acute malnutrition.
Aim and Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the efficacy of homoeopathic constitutional medicine in promoting children's development, using WHO and IAP development charts as benchmarks. The primary goal was to assess the impact of homoeopathic treatment on children's growth trajectories.
Material and Methods: A prospective interventional study included 70 children aged 1 to 18 years exhibiting growth variations according to WHO and IAP Growth Charts. Medication tailored to constitutional totality was administered, with regular follow-ups and nutritional guidance. Anthropometric measurements were recorded at intervals, and statistical analyses compared pre- and post-treatment growth parameters. Results: The study demonstrated the effectiveness of homoeopathy in addressing suboptimal growth standards. The t-test indicated a statistically significant difference in growth percentiles before and after treatment (p-value < 0.05), supporting the hypothesis that homoeopathy is beneficial in improving children's weight.
Conclusion: Homoeopathic constitutional medicine shows promise in enhancing children's growth standards in line with WHO and IAP recommendations. These findings highlight homoeopathy as a potential supplementary therapy for addressing pediatric growth issues.

Isolated fractures of the trapeziums’ are rare; they represent 3 to 5% of fractures of the carpal bones and can go unnoticed. They are often associated with other fractures of the hand and wrist, in particular the Bennett fracture, the mechanism remains poorly known, and the diagnosis can be difficult. The purpose of our work was to emphasize the importance of the clinical examination which must be thorough and specific radiological implications. Computed tomography (CT) should be performed at the slightest doubt. Poorly treated, these fractures can be the cause of painful sequelae in the trapezo-metacarpal joint type of disabling rhizarthrosis. Reporting to us the case of a 23-year-old young patient with an isolated fracture of the trapezius displaced from his right wrist, surgically treated The fracture consolidated without complications, after six weeks and the patient returned to work after three months and did not present pain with the mobilization of the thumb, nor loss of strength. Conclusion: The isolated trapezoid fracture is very rare in traumatology. Its suspicion must lead to more advanced para-clinical investigations because neglected, it can be the cause of painful sequelae at the level of the trapezo-metacarpal joint with an important maintenance on daily activity

Published: January 2025

Urolithiasis in general terminology is known as kidney stone or renal calculi. Urolithiasis is a disease caused by the interaction of epidemiological, biochemical and genetic risk factor. Urolithiasis is caused by many different factors that are related to the development of stone in the urinary tract such as heredity, diet, metabolic abnormality, infection, and slightly by age, gender and climate. Bryophyllum pinnatum (family: Crassulaceae) was widely used in traditional medicine. They are found in especially in tropical Africa, India, China, Tropical America. The main objective of the present study is to assess the in vitro anti-urolithiatic activity of ethanolic extract of Bryophyllum pinnatum leaves. For the in vitro study, experimentally calcium phosphate and calcium oxalate stones were prepared and compared with standard drug. Cystone is used as standard drug. The Pharmacological screening was done by Nuleation assay method. Bryophyllum pinnatum tonic is rich in phytochemicals such as alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, tannins, terpenoids and resins, and has a substantial capacity to dissolve calcium phosphate and calcium oxalate. This study suggests the anti-crystallization activity of Bryophyllum pinnatum against CaOx crystallization. One possible method of anti-crystallization activity of Bryophyllum pinnatum could be its ability to complex with free calcium and oxalate ions, thus preventing the formation of CaOx complexes. Further in vivo and clinical explorations are required to confirm the efficacy of Bryophyllum pinnatum as an anti-urolithiatic.
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome: A Comprehensive Review

Published: January 2025

Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic disorder causing accelerated aging in children, with an incidence of approximately 1 in 20 million live births. First described by Jonathan Hutchinson and Hastings Gilford in the late 19th century, HGPS is caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene, leading to the production of a defective protein called progerin. Progerin disrupts the nuclear envelope's integrity, resulting in cellular abnormalities and premature aging. Clinically, HGPS is characterized by distinctive facial features, growth retardation, skin changes, joint contractures, and cardiovascular complications, primarily arteriosclerosis, which often lead to early death due to myocardial infarction or stroke. Diagnosis is primarily clinical, supported by genetic testing to confirm the LMNA mutation. Management focuses on symptomatic relief and improving quality of life, with cardiovascular monitoring being crucial. Farnesyltransferase inhibitors (FTIs) have shown potential in reducing progerin levels and improving cellular function. Supportive therapies, including physical and occupational therapy, are essential for managing the disease. Future research aims to develop effective treatments, with gene editing technologies like CRISPR/Cas9 showing promise in correcting the LMNA mutation. Understanding HGPS can provide insights into the natural aging process and inform novel anti-aging therapies. Collaborative efforts are vital for advancing research and improving patient outcomes.

Authors: Aditi L. Soman  , Ishani Kulkarni  , Sheetal Bobade
Published: January 2025

Objective: The respiratory systems of adults and children differ anatomically and physiologically, which results in varying respiratory evaluation and treatment parameter values. An accessible clinical method for evaluating lung function at the bedside is the Chest Expansion (CE) examination. However, there isn't enough data in the literature to support the use of this assessment technique in the pediatric population. In order to ascertain the intrarater and interrater reliability of chest expansion in children aged 5 to 12, the current study was conducted.
Method: A Cross-sectional Observational study was done on 385 students between 5 to 12 years of age group& normal BMI were selected by convenient sampling method. Two independent investigators, both blinded, assessed the Chest expansion at 2nd, 4th, 6th intercostal spaces (ICS) using a non-elastic measuring tape with child in sitting position. An average of three such readings at each level were taken into consideration. These readings were taken at 3 timeframes. To assess interrater reliability CE was checked on the same day at 20-minute interval, by 2 independent assessors, and CE assessment was repeated after a weeks interval by one assessor to evaluate the intrarater reliability. The mean value of 3 repetitions was used to calculate the intraclass correlation coefficient ICC and Cronbach’s Alpha by using the SPSS Software.
Result: The Cronbach’s Alpha for both Intrarater and Interrater reliability was >0.8 for 2nd, 4th and 6th ICS.
Conclusion: Chest Expansion assessment in Healthy Children Between 5-12 years of Age Group has is an Excellent Intrarater and Interrater Reliability

To investigate "up-to-date" and "age-appropriate" indicators of preschool vaccination status and their implications for vaccination policy. The authors analyzed medical records data from the Baltimore Immunization Study for 525 2-year-olds born from August 1988 through March 1989 to mothers living in low-income Census tracts of the city of Baltimore.While only 54% of 24-month-old children were up-to-date for the primary series, indicators of up-to-date coverage were consistently higher, by 37 or more percentage points, than corresponding age-appropriate indicators. Almost 80% of children who failed to receive the first dose of DTP or OPV age-appropriately failed to be up-to-date by 24 months of age for the primary series.Age-appropriate immunization indicators more accurately reflect adequacy of protection for pre schoolers than up-to-date indicators at both the individual and population levels. Age-appropriate receipt of the first dose of DTP should be monitored to identify children likely to be under immunized. Age-appropriate indicators should also be incorporated as vaccination coverage estimators in population-based surveys and as quality of care indicators for managed care organizations. These changes would require accurate dates for each vaccination and support the need to develop population-based registries.

Published: January 2025

A felhasználói preferenciák fontos tényezők a tanulókörnyezetek tervezésében. A játékelemeket tartalmazó virtuális tanulókörnyezetekben végzett kutatások jelenleg a tanulói motiváció, teljesítmény és ösztönzők kapcsolatára koncentrálnak. Még ritka az olyan kutatás, amely a felhasználók cselekvési kedvét és munkamorálját a virtuális tanulókörnyezet megjelenítésével kapcsolatban vizsgálja, annak ellenére, hogy az emberi tevékenység térbefolyásoltsága köztudott. A népszerű videójátékok tereit – Super Mario Bros., Professor Layton, vagy The Legend of Zelda – a gyártók a felhasználók véleménye alapján fejlesztik. Tanulmányomban egy feltáró jellegű kutatásról számolok be, melynek során egy gamifikált tanulásszervezési keret játékterének felépítési tulajdonságait közösségi tervezés keretében elemeztük, majd kialakítása úgy történt, hogy a játéktér a felhasználók munkamorálját a tanulási folyamatban hatékonyan támogassa. A közösségi tervezésben létrejött egy virtuális oktatási környezetek minősítésére alkalmazható kezdetleges szemantikusdifferrenciál-skála. A kutatásban 37 elsőéves és harmadéves egyetemi hallgató vett részt. Az adatgyűjtés és adatelemzés kvalitatív módszerek alkalmazásával történt. A kutatás eredményei azt mutatják, hogy a tanulási terekben létrejövő virtuális játékterek vizuális kialakítása és feladatfelépítése hatással van a bennük tevékenykedők cselekvési kedvére és feladatpreferenciájára.

This research investigated farmers’ perception of the impact of Presidential Fertilizer Initiative (PFI) programme (2016 - 2022) on crop production in Wukari, Nigeria. A multi-stage sampling procedure was employed to contact 160 farmers for the study. A well-structured questionnaire was used for data collection and investigated using both descriptive and inferential statistics such as mean score rating and binary logit regression. The result indicates that about (56.9%) of the farmers were males aged between 38 - 47 years (43.1%) with about 0 - 10 years of farming experience (40%). The majority (61.3%) had between 00 - 02 hectares (42.5%) area of farm land. They were aware that PFI provided more than 100,000 direct and indirect jobs throughout the fertilizer value chain (3.14) and was a public-private partnership (3.05). The outcome of the binary logit regression indicated that factors such as age, marital status, farming experience, farm size, quantity of fertilizer distributed, annual income, fertilizer price and fertilizer use rate all had a positive coefficient and significant participation in the PFI programme. The farmers perceived that the PFI programme enhanced crop yield and productivity (3.98). We recommend that the government should sustain this programme to enhance fertilizer supply and improve agricultural production.

Masalah utama dalam upaya menindaklanjuti peningkatan pelanggaran lalu lintas di tahun 2022 sampai dengan tahun 2023 adalah karena pengguna jalan yang sengaja melanggar disebabkan karena kurangnya kesadaran hukum dari masyarakat itu sendiri dalam berlalu lintas di zona rawan kecelakaan. Masalah utama dalam upaya menindaklanjuti peningkatan pelanggaran lalu lintas di tahun 2022 sampai dengan tahun 2023 adalah karena pengguna jalan yang sengaja melanggar disebabkan karena kurangnya kesadaran hukum dari masyarakat itu sendiri. Selain itu juga seringnya terjadi kecelakaan lalu lintas di zona rawan kecelakaan di beberapa titik di kabupaten Dairi akibat kurangnya kesadaran dalam berlalu lintas. Penegakan hukum terhadap pengemudi yang melakukan pelanggaran lalu lintas di zona rawan kecelakaan di wilayah Polres Dairi adalah dengan cara menerapkan tilang secara manual dan teguran secara lisan dan kemudian diselesaikan melalui pengadilan dengan acara cepat dan sesuai dengan pasal yang dikenakan terhadap pelanggar lalu lintas. Penindakan terhadap pelanggaran lalu lintas yang dapat dilakukan oleh kepolisian berdasarkan kewenangannya seperti pemeriksaan kendaraan bermotor di jalan dilakukan oleh Petugas Polri dan Penyidik Pegawai Negeri Sipil (PPNS) LLAJ meliputi pemeriksaan Surat izin mengemudi (SIM), surat tanda nomor kendaraan bermotor (STNK), surat tanda coba kendaraan bermotor (STCKB), atau tanda coba kendaraan bermotor (TCKB), Tanda bukti lulus ujian bagi kendaraan wajib uji, Fisik kendaraan bermotor, Daya angkut dan/atau cara pengangkutan barang, Izin penyelenggaraan angkut. Strategi penanganan pelanggaran lalu lintas di wilayah Polres Dairi dilakukan dengan dua cara yaitu strategi preventif (pencegahan) dan strategi represif (penindakan). Bentuk strategi preventif seperti: sosialisasi dan pengaturan lalu lintas, pemberian brosur dan stiker atau pemasangan pamflet rambu-rambu dan melaksanakan operasi zebra 2024.. Sedangkan strategi represif berupa menjatuhkan hukuman berupa tilang serta melakukan penyitaan kendaraan.
Pemikiran Pendidikan Kaum Perempuan: Tengku Agung Syarifah Latifah, R.A Kartini, Rasuna Said dan Rahmah El-Yunusiyah

Pada awal abad ke-20, pendidikan perempuan mulai berkembang dengan berdirinya sekolah-sekolah khusus perempuan, seperti Sekolah Kartini yang didirikan di berbagai daerah. Tokoh-tokoh seperti Tengku Agung Syarifah Latifah, Rasuna Said dan Rahmah El-Yunusiyah, juga mendirikan lembaga pendidikan untuk perempuan. Mereka percaya bahwa perempuan yang terdidik akan lebih mampu mengembangkan potensi dirinya dan berkontribusi bagi keluarga serta masyarakat. Setelah kemerdekaan, akses pendidikan bagi perempuan mulai terbuka lebih luas, tetapi tantangan masih ada, seperti kemiskinan, budaya patriarki, yakni sistem sosial yang menempatkan laki-laki sebagai pemegang kekuasaan utama dan mendominasi dalam berbagai peran di masyarakat, dan minimnya fasilitas di daerah terpencil. Pemerintah mulai menginisiasi program-program untuk mendorong pendidikan universal, termasuk bagi perempuan. Pemikiran pendidikan kaum perempuan di Indonesia adalah perjalanan kolektif menuju kesetaraan, yang diharapkan dapat mewujudkan masyarakat yang lebih inklusif, adil, dan sejahtera. Raden Ajeng Kartini atau yang sering dikenal R.A Kartini adalah tokoh emansipasi dan pendidikan perempuan yang telah lama dikenal di kalangan generasi emas Indonesia. Akan tetapi, sebenarnya bukan hanya sosok Kartini saja yang berperan dalam memajukan pendidikan di masa sebelum kemerdekaan. Hal tersebut juga dikarenakan kurangnya produksi sejarah lokal terutama mengenai peranan perempuan dalam pendidikan dan perjuangan bangsa selain Kartini. Tokoh-tokoh perempuan inspiratif di bidang pendidikan telah memberikan kontribusi yang luar biasa baik di Indonesia maupun di seluruh dunia. Mereka adalah sosok-sosok yang telah membuktikan bahwa pendidikan adalah kunci untuk mengubah dunia dan memberikan kesempatan yang sama bagi semua individu. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif deskriptif analitik, data dikumpulkan melalui studi pustaka dan dokumen. Kemudian dilakukan analisis dan meringkas berbagai kondisi, situasi dari berbagai data yang dikumpulkan mengenai masalah yang diteliti.

Bu çalışmada İngiliz yönetmen Andrea Arnold‘a ait olan İnek (Cow, 2021) filmini yönetmenin bakış açısından anlamaya ve ekolojist bakış açısıyla değerlendirmeye çalıştım. Arnold’ın kendi hayatından izler taşıyan filmlerinde kadının, insan olmayan dişinin ve görünmeyenin çabasını görünür kılmaya dönük bir çaba vardır. Bu nedenle onun filmlerinde hayvanlar da birer karaktere dönüşür. İnek filminin ana karakteri Luma da bunun için özel olarak seçilmiştir. İnek filminin hayvan hakları ve kadın çalışmaları açısından güçlü iletileri bulunmaktadır. Film ayrıca etnografi için de yenilikçi ve örnek olabilecek özelliklere sahiptir. Bir belgesel niteliği taşıyan filmde kamera ineğin gözüne dönüşüyor ve bu bir yandan ineğin kendini aktarmasına olanak tanırken diğer yandan da izleyiciyi ineğin gözünden dünyayı anlamaya davet ediyor. Günümüzde yeni etnografinin yapmaya çalıştığı gibi, film onun hakkında konuşmak yerine, onunla yan yana durarak, ortaklaşa bir üretim sürecinin mümkün olduğunu gösteriyor. Yazımda esas olarak filmi anlamaya çalıştım fakat bunun yaptığı çağrışımlar kendi dünyamın inek ve insan ilişkileri üzerine de düşünmeme neden oldu. Böylece yazı iki ana eksende gelişti: Birincisinde yönetmenin kim olduğuna, İnek filmine ve filmdeki ana karakter Luma’nın neyi anlattığına odaklanırken ikincisinde tüm bunların benimle ilgisinin ne olduğuna ilişkin yanıtlar aradım. Birinci kısımda filmi çoklutürler etnografisi ya da posthümanist (oto)etnografinin açılımıyla anlamaya çalıştım. İkinci kısımda filmin benimle ilgisini, filmin çağrıştırdıkları üzerinden otoetnografik bir yaklaşımla ele alırken aynı zamanda insanın inekle ilişkilerine dair düşüncelerimi derinleştirmeye çalıştım. Sonuçta film, bütün gerçekliğiyle Luma’nın çabasını görmemizi ve takdir etmemizi sağlıyor. Film aynı zamanda bana kendi çevremdeki insan-hayvan ilişkilerini düşündürttüğü gibi herkesin daha iyi bir dünya için bu ilişkileri yeniden gözden geçirmesine de imkân veriyor.
