Authors: Brito-Campo Helen , Ayala-Santamaría María , Barros-Escalante Katherin , Cubillos-Hinojosa Juan , Pantoja-Guerra Manuel , Valero Nelson , Gómez Gómez Liliana
Published: June 2022

Coal solubilizing bacteria (CSB) are microorganisms to able to bio transformed low rank coal, releasing humified organic matter in the process. On the other hand, these bacterial genera have reported previously as plant growth promoting bacteria. The aim of this work was to assess the Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) capacity of five CSB strains: Bacillus pumilus (CSB05), B. mycoides (CSB25), Microbacterium sp. (CSB3), Acinetobacter sp. (CSB13) and B. amyloliquefaciens (CSB02). For this, the PGPR traits of CSB were evaluated under laboratory conditions: the biological nitrogen fixation capacity, the reduction of acetylene, the synthesis of indole acetic acid (IAA) and the solubilization of phosphates. In a second experiment under plant nursery conditions, PGPR activity of strain CSB05 was evaluated in common bean plants. Under laboratory conditions, it was evidenced that all the evaluated strains produced IAA, solubilized phosphate in a liquid medium, presented atmospheric nitrogen fixation capacity, and only the CSB3 and CSB13 strains reduced acetylene. In the plant nursery experiment, PGPR activity of strain CSB05 was detected in common bean plants, reflected in increases in the height of these plants. These results show that CSB are promising in the PGPR activity, which is interesting to the design of biological products with agricultural and environmental applications, for the management of crops in disturbed soils of the Colombian dry Caribbean.
İsrâiliyata Alternatif Yorum Denemeleri: et-Tahrîr ve’t-Tenvîr Örneği
Authors: YILDIZ Mustafa
Published: June 2022

Başta Yahudilik ve Hıristiyanlık olmak üzere diğer din ve kültürlerden İslam’a aktarılmış rivayet malzemesi olan İsrâiliyat, on dört asırlık İslam tarihi boyunca özellikle tefsir disiplini çerçevesinde tartışılan konulardan biri olmuştur. Bu rivayetler erken dönem tefsirlerinde normatif bir değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmaksızın bilgi kaynaklarından biri olarak kullanılırken klasik tefsirlerde ağırlıklı olarak isnadının zayıflığına vurgu yapılarak tenkit edilmeye başlanmıştır. Çağdaş döneme gelindiğinde Batı menşeli pozitivizm, rasyonalizm ve tarihsel eleştiricilik gibi fikrî akımların ve oryantalistik iddiaların etkisiyle İsrâiliyat, gerçekliği olmayan, hayali, mitolojik ve hurafelerle karışık hikâye türü anlatımlar olarak değerlendirilerek daha ziyade içerik açısından tenkit edilmiştir. Bu tenkitler neticesinde hem İsrâiliyata mesafe konulmaya çalışılmış hem de ona alternatifler aranmıştır. Çağdaş dönem tefsirlerinde İsrâiliyatın en güçlü alternatifi olarak Kitab-ı Mukaddes’e müracaat edilmiş olsa da bu durum birçok tartışmaya kapı aralamış, ondan başka alternatifler üzerinde durulmuştur. Sözü edilen bu hususlar, Tunuslu âlim Tâhir b. Âşûr’un (1879-1973) et-Tahrîr ve’t-Tenvîr isimli tefsiri için de geçerlidir. Bu tefsirin önemli bir özelliği, İsrâilî rivayetlere belli kriterler çerçevesinde olumlu yaklaşmış olunsa da genellikle tenkit etmiş olmasıdır. Müellif, eserinde mümkün mertebe İsrâilî rivayetlere iltifat etmeyip onlara alternatifler geliştirmiştir. Bu alternatifler arasından Kitab-ı Mukaddes nakillerine öncelik vermiş olmakla birlikte bununla yetinmemiş başka alternatiflere de yönelmiştir. Bu çalışmada İbn Âşûr’un yer yer İsrâiliyata alternatif olarak kullandığı, metin merkezli yorumlama, sosyo-psikolojik yorumlama ve öngörülere dayalı yorumlama yöntemleri üzerinde durulmuştur. Müellifin bu yolla İsrâiliyata kıyasla daha sağlam ve tartışma zemininden uzak yöntemler geliştirdiği ve bu yöntemleri başarılı bir şekilde kullandığı görülmüştür. Bu yöntemlerin Kur’an kıssalarında dakik bir şekilde kullanılması halinde İsrâiliyata önemli birer alternatif olabilecekleri kanaatine varılmıştır.

Published: June 2022

In a statistical research of 100 women diagnosed with urinary tract infections (UTIs) at Al Dhahirah Hospital - Ibn Sina Clinic - Aqaba Laboratory for Medical Analysis in the city of Bani Waleed in 2017, Agrahl (Ibrahim, H. K., Mohammed, A. A., & Omar, O. A. (2018).) and  (Ibrahim, Hamza Khalifa). (2017). found that the most affected age group is the most common. The illness afflicted (26-30) years by 39 percent, making it the most affected age group when compared to others. The antibiotic (Augmentin) was shown to be the most important and effective antibiotic used in the treatment of urinary tract infection during this time period, accounting for 49 percent of cases, while UTI is more frequent in the winter, with a 59 percent infection rate. The increasing resistance to bacteria of our isolates under investigation might be related to the widespread use of antibiotics at random, allowing for a rise in bacterial resistance to various antibiotics.
Memories of Konfrontasi and Anti-Malaysia Sentiment in Indonesia
Authors: Sinarto Benedictus Peter
Published: June 2022

Despite Malaysia and Indonesia having similarities in their religious practices, language, and shared ancestry, history has revealed that their relationship constantly fluctuates between peace and hostility. In this paper, we argued that Indonesiaâ€™s collective memory of the konfrontasi era has triggered anti-Malaysian sentiment. To elaborate on the answer, first, the constructivism theory regarding identity and interest is used to define the Indonesian sentiment toward Malaysia. Indonesia has a negative sentiment towards Malaysia that distinct from Indonesia's sentiment to other countries. On its negative sentiment toward Malaysia, Indonesia often repeats the slogan of Ganyang Malaysia, which is the infamous slogan from the Konfrontasi era. This paper demonstrated that the â€˜falseâ€™ collective memory created from the period of Konfrontasi had caused a negative sentiment towards Malaysia. Practically, the sentiment should also be reduced to prevent further escalation with Malaysia since there is already proof that the confrontative attitude toward Malaysia created more damage than the advantage.

Incarceration of chiefs: A colonial and post-colonial tool for the destruction of the sanctity of the chieftaincy institution in Ghana?
Authors: Osei Augustine Duah
Published: June 2022

Using predominantly primary historical documents, supplemented by the appropriate secondary historical records, this paper examines political detention or the incarceration of chiefs as a measure or a tool employed by both colonial and post-colonial authorities to weaken and to eventually destroy the chieftaincy institution in Ghana. The paper evaluates the circumstances leading to the arrest and detention of the chiefs who suffered such fate. It analyses the socio-cultural impact of such detentions on the paramountcies affected and on the institution of chieftaincy in Ghana as a whole. Based on the findings of the study, the paper concludes that under both colonial and the immediate post-colonial eras, a big blow was dealt to the institution of chieftaincy in Ghana which helped shrink the power and status of the institution in the country.
Strangers and authorities in the gold coast: Immigration control in colonial Ghana, 1900—1957
Authors: Adjepong Adjei
Published: June 2022

Until the imposition of colonial rule on Africa, movements of people from one place to another were not restricted by national or regional borders, visa systems, or national security fears. The modern idea of immigration is related to the development of nation-states and nationality laws, which often distinguish between citizens and immigrants. Citizenship of a nation-stale confers on nationals an inalienable right of residence, employment and free movement in that state, but the residence, employment and movement of immigrants are subject to conditions set by immigration regulations. Since it was the colonial authorities that introduced immigration regulations into Ghana, any attempt to gain a good understanding of the history of immigration control in the country must start from the colonial times. Therefore, using both primary and secondary documents, this study examines the measures which the colonial authorities devised to control the entry of immigrants into Ghana as well as their stay in and exit from the country, and assesses the relative effectiveness of their implementation. It argues that the colonial authorities had been generally liberal towards immigrants in Ghana. The study concludes that the manner in which immigration control had been handled in the colonial era was partly accountable for the frequent influx of many 'illegal' migrants into Ghana after independence.
BEFORE EPIPHANY: AN ASSESSMENT OF DONALD TRUMP’S CRISIS LEADERSHIP ON THE EVE OF THE COVID -19 PANDEMIC
Authors: Balcı Oktay , Ağ Cengiz
Published: June 2022

In management discipline, the words “crisis” and “change” are usually mentioned together at many points. In the discipline of psychology, the word “epiphany” represents the positive development of individuals by virtue of sudden and drastic changes in their lives. In this context, it is possible to say that the covid-19 pandemic has been an epiphanic experience not only for underdeveloped countries but also for super-powerful countries such as the U.S. Because the U.S, which faced the covid-19 pandemic under the leadership of Donald Trump, unexpectedly failed in this struggle and experienced a deep epiphany. In this case study, the role of the leader of the U.S, Donald Trump, has been tried to analyse in terms of crisis leadership during the pandemic response phase. More specifically, a few steps have been taken back to look at what Trump possessed on the eve of the crisis and how he responded to the crisis at the onset of the pandemic outbreak. Thus, it has been tried to determine the distance (gap) between Trump's potential power and his kinetic power in the context of the crisis leadership framework. To do this, we have closely examined Trump’s pandemic leadership before the first case date (21 January) and from that date to National Emergency Announcement (March 13) period through the lens of “The Framework for Assessment of Crisis Leadership” proposed by Boin et al. (2013). In the light of events and testimonies, it is possible to say that Trump's pandemic response has negatively affected both his political destiny and the destiny of the Americans.
A “entrada” é oguata porã: os sentidos da Terra Sem Mal na luta pela terra dos Avá-Guarani do Oeste do Paraná
Authors: Soavinski Carla
Published: June 2022

Este artigo aborda a associação que os Avá-Guarani do Oeste do Paraná estabelecem entre seus movimentos de “entrada” (ou retomada) e as oguata porã, caminhadas sagradas em busca da Terra Sem Mal (yvy marã e’ỹ). Sugiro que, talvez, o sentido dessa relação possa ser melhor compreendido se yvy marã e’ỹ for considerada como inserida na história, conforme já se tem argumentado, mas também na cosmologia guarani de maneira mais ampla. A proposta é de uma reflexão sobre a imbricação entre território, política e cosmologia na luta pela terra.
Os saberes e práticas de autoatenção da comunidade quilombola de Laranjal, Mato Grosso
Authors: Marcelly Nayara
Published: June 2022

O presente artigo busca apresentar os saberes e práticas de autoatenção da comunidade quilombola de Laranjal, localizada no município de Poconé do estado de Mato Grosso. O termo autoatenção pode ser compreendido como o conjunto de saberes e práticas que se constituem de modo coletivo e em articulação com a memória e o território, expressando-se de diversos modos, dentre eles: os remédios caseiros, a prática da benzeção, a prática do parto e do resguardo. Alguns resultados emanciparam a partir da pesquisa, por exemplo, as noções de memória coletiva, território, saberes e práticas como processos coletivos e relacionais, fundamentais no processo de transmissão do conhecimento. O termo “remanescente de quilombo” foi problematizado a partir da indagação de como a comunidade pensa essa categoria e como ele se apresenta não só como lugar de memória coletiva, mas como lugar político. A metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa etnográfica. Realizada entre os anos de 2015 e 2016 por meio do Programa de Iniciação Científica. A pesquisa etnográfica foi traçada inseparadamente da revisão conceitual, da realização de entrevistas, da vivência dos espaços e da textualização do diário de campo. A escolha do tema, mostra-se essencial por abarcar formas específicas de conhecimentos e agências, emancipando como resposta aos estudos decoloniais.
Tornar-se indígena na cidade: processos de identificação, violência e agência nas trajetórias de quatro mulheres indígenas no Rio de Janeiro
Authors: Freire Nasciutti Luiza
Published: June 2022

Este trabalho parte da pesquisa de campo, realizada de 2017 a 2018, e analisa as agências e os processos de construção da identidade indígena de quatro mulheres que vivem no Rio de Janeiro. Investigam-se os pontos convergentes em suas buscas pelas “raízes” indígenas, onde elas compreendem a identidade étnica enquanto potencialidade a ser descoberta e retomada. Observa-se como processos de subjetivação retrabalham histórias de familiares e experiências pessoais e coletivas, operadas enquanto memória, para produzir certos tipos de agência e autoafirmação. Analisam-se também os processos de discriminação e invisibilização que tais mulheres experienciam na cidade e enfatizam-se as agências que emergem como respostas a essas violências. Ser indígena é pensado enquanto experiência urbana possível, e não antagônico a essa experiência. A identidade indígena afirmada na cidade é encarada como uma postura política de disputa por novas epistemologias e modos de ser na cidade, tensionando modos de vida dominantes.
As (re)existências indocampesina-quilombolas e suas disputas territoriais: descolonizando a história social e política brasileira
Authors: Coutinho Melo Conceição , Buitrón Vuelta Raquel
Published: June 2022

Este trabajo busca reflexionar sobre las luchas emancipadoras de indígenas, campesinos y quilombolas en Brasil- a cuáles están agrupados acá en la terminología indocampesinos-quilombolas- a partir de la comprensión de las relaciones y tensiones entre sus territorios y la esfera estatal, haciendo un recorrido desde el Brasil colonial hasta los días actúales, que pretende contribuir con la descolonización de la historia social y política brasileña. A partir de la reinvención del pensamiento crítico desde América Latina/Abya Yala-quilombola, los elementos conceptuales críticos de Epistemologías del Sur, Ecología Política y Decolonialidad ayudan a pensar el sistema-mundo moderno, capitalista y patriarcal, para entender las re-existencias que reflejan las disputas en torno de ello. Desde y contra el Estado, los indocampesinos-quilombolas han logrado retomar sus territorios y reafirmar sus identidades, cuyas historias se entrecruzan por el hilo de la herencia (pós)colonial y sus principales hitos están reflexionados en este trabajo.

Ontologias indígenas, territorialidade e etnicidade: os imbróglios dos processos de demarcação da Terra Indígena Médio Rio Negro.
Authors: Sousa Nascimento Luiz Augusto
Published: June 2022

Pesquisa de carácter etnográfica, aborda a partir do ponto de vista das populações amazônicas, as concepções de territorialidade, Terra Indígena, meio ambiente, bem como estabelece um diálogo referente aos conflitos socioambientais regentes na região do Médio Rio Negro no noroeste amazônico (extrativismo da piaçaba). No bojo da apropriação de territórios e dos recursos naturais inerentes para a economia local, procuramos demonstrar as implicações sociológicas e os imbróglios fomentado pelos processos dos estudos de Identificação e Demarcação de Terras Indígenas no âmbito da Funai. Demonstraremos a importância do papel das lideranças indígenas quanto a defesa de um território indígena (Terra Indígena), os argumentos consolidados que dizem respeito a etnicidade, que conduzem o enfrentamento de ações e agenciamentos exógenos, como do Estado, ONGs, agentes patronais, grileiros entre outras. Como resultado, os indígenas rechaçam qualquer tentativa de desconstrução das noções de territorialidades e etnicidade que não estejam imbricados às suas bases ontológicas.

La imagen del “jíbaro” en dos viajeros de los siglos XIX y XX
Authors: Gómez Rendón Jorge
Published: June 2022

El “jíbaro” fue una de las tres identidades del indio amazónico que se construyeron en el siglo XIX y sirvieron para justificar su integración al proyecto nacional. De etimología incierta, el término fue utilizado inicialmente como etnónimo y así pasó al castellano ecuatoriano en la matriz de un discurso racista de raigambre colonial. Su difusión desde mediados del siglo XIX alcanzó diferentes géneros letrados, incluyendo la literatura de viajes. Luego de indagar sus usos desde una perspectiva lexicográfica e histórica, esta contribución analiza la construcción discursiva del “jíbaro” en los relatos de dos viajeros, el alemán Wilhelm Reiss y el norteamericano H. Anthony, cuyas visitas estuvieron separadas por un período de cincuenta años (1870-1920), con el fin de identificar las estrategias retóricas que utilizan para construir la imagen del indio amazónico y justificar su colonización.
(In)decencia: la encrucijada entre la esclavitud y la libertad en el ejercicio de los trabajos sexuales
Authors: Hessamzadeh Villamagua Seyedeh Sougand , Silva Cajas Gustavo Marcelo
Published: June 2022

La indecencia es la falta de observación de las normas morales socialmente establecidas, siendo los trabajos sexuales considerados transgresores de la moral pública. Ante esto, desde el feminismo se polarizaron dos posturas respecto de los trabajos sexuales: las radicales opuestas abiertamente al mercado sexual y al ejercicio de la prostitución en especial por considerarla una práctica que cosifica a las mujeres y perpetúa el patriarcado; mientras que las antimoralistas argumentaban que el ejercicio de la prostitución y la inmersión en el mercado del sexo reivindican la liberación sexual femenina bajo el principio de la libertad y la autonomía de decisión. De lo mencionado, el presente articulo aborda las particularidades del mercado del sexo por dentro y fuera de las polarizaciones feministas, pues aparte de las dicotomías políticas existen realidades humanas que merecen un reconocimiento y reflexión más allá del diván.

Authors:   , Sibiya Lindiwe-Memory
Published: June 2022

This research case study was conducted in the iLembe District; Department of Education. The study investigates how an Employee Performance Management and Development System (EPMDS) is implemented in the Department. The aim of the study was to improve employee’s performance and increase efficiency. The study revealed that there are challenges associated with the implementation of Employee Performance Management and Development System as an appraisal system within the Department of Education (iLembe District). The findings of the study showed that there was no proper training on EPMDS due to limited resources and unavailability of qualified practitioners. Hence, there was inconsistency in the implementation of EPMDS as an appraisal system which resulted in a lack of morale and demotivation in employees’ performance. Another contributing factor to employees lack of motivation was that the department was failing to pay performance bonuses to employees with good performance due to unavailability of funds. Furthermore, employees were not provided with performance outcomes. The study provides new strategies that will assist to improve performance within the District office. Therefore, the study recommends that Human Resource Development should identify and provide new necessary skills, competencies and proper training to District employees. The study further suggests that managers should liaise and provide performance feedback. The study suggests that the department should allocate funds and pay performance bonus to deserving employees. The research employed in this study is the triangulation method. A sample of 100 respondents was drawn from a population of 800 employees in the iLembe District; Department of Education. A non-probability sampling known as purposive sampling was utilised to generate qualitative data and probability sampling was employed to generate quantitative data.

Authors:   , Zindoga Thelma Kudzai
Published: June 2022

This research determines the influence of work-life balance practices on employee job performance at Mi7 Security Intelligence Company at Durban University of Technology (DUT). This study utilised mixed methods – both quantitative and qualitative research methods as a form of triangulation. The study context was DUT, and the 60 (35 female and 25 male) research participants who took part in the study were Mi7 Security Intelligence Company security officers employed to work at the DUT. From the 60 participants who took part in the quantitative survey, 10 security officers were selected to take part in individual in-depth interviews. Quantitative data was entered into Stata 11 Statistical Software and analysed using two sample t-tests and Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression analysis. Qualitative data was analysed thematically using Nvivo 10 Software. The quantitative results show that younger security officers, those with lower levels of education, those who do not have children and those who are not married, compared to other groups, were more likely to score high on security officer satisfaction survey scale, family-work balance scale, work- family balance scale, and psychological health scale. Qualitative results corroborated the quantitative results with regards to work-life balance practices and family satisfaction, with participants mostly complaining about the lack of growth and development opportunities which were coupled with long working hours which limit their family time.

The scientific review considers the process of developing the readiness of future higher education specialists for professional self-improvement. The analysis and reflections on the contemporary scientific research presented in the article made it possible to present professional self-improvement as a complex phenomenon due to a range of psychological, socio-economic, cultural, professional and personal factors.

Theoretical analysis of researches by domestic and foreign scientists, as well as our results, confirm the key positions of S. Rubinstein, O. Leontiev and others that the development of personality is carried out through activities. Accordingly, it is the activity approach that is defined by us as the leading one in the methodology of forming the readiness of future teachers for self-improvement and led to understanding the dynamics of this process from the standpoint of phasing changes in such types of personally significant activities as self-actualization and self-realization. realization of self-knowledge, perception of "self-image", self-organization, self-control and self-correction.

In the course of our study it was found that the process of professional self-improvement of future higher education specialists depends on their personal characteristics, methodological competence and "image of professional self", ability to reflect, as well as depth and intensity of self-knowledge.

Abstract. Deep learning methods for semantic segmentation have shown great potential in automating mapping of geospatial features, including small watercourses such as streams and ditches. There are a variety of small watercourse types. In many use cases users are only interested in specific types of watercourses. However, the impact on results from neural networks trained with only some types of small watercourses, compared to all types of watercourses is not well known. We trained four deep learning models to semantically segment watercourses from an elevation model. One model was trained with all small watercourses in the labels as a single class, while three models were trained each with a single type of watercourse in the label data. The results show that training the network with a single type of watercourse results in worse recall for all three watercourse types, compared to when training all of them together. This indicates that if the goal is to get as complete set of features as possible, it is better to include all watercourse types in the training data. Future studies could use multi-class output from neural network to determine how well networks could automatically classify features when training with all small watercourses in an area.

Abstract. Advances in geodetic altimetry instruments are providing more accurate measurements, enabling satellite missions to hand over useful data in narrow rivers and streams. Altimetry missions produce spatially dense land and water surface elevation measurements in remote areas where in-situ data is scarce, that can be combined with hydraulic/hydrodynamic models to simulate water surface elevation and estimate discharge. In this study, we combine ICESat-2 land and water surface elevation measurements with a low-parametrized hydraulic calibration to simulate water surface elevation and discharge without the need for a rainfall-runoff model. ICESat-2 provides an opportunity to map river cross-section geometry very accurately with an along-track resolution of 0.7 m using the ATL03 product. These measurements are combined with the inland water product ATL13 to calibrate a steady-state hydraulic model to retrieve unobserved hydraulic parameters, such as river depth or roughness coefficient. The low-parametrized model together with the assumption of steady-state hydraulics enables the application of a global search algorithm for parameter calibration at a manageable computational cost. The model performance is similar to that reported for highly parametrized models, with a root mean square error of around 0.41 m. With the calibrated model, we can calculate water surface elevation time series at any chainage point at any time of an available satellite pass within the river reach, and estimate discharge from water surface elevation. The discharge estimates are validated with in-situ measurements at two available gauging stations. In addition, we use the calibrated parameters in a full hydrodynamic model simulation resulting in a RMSE of 0.59 m for the entire observation period.

Abstract. Aiming at the urgent need for the development of space deployable antenna with large aperture and a high storage rate, a new configuration of a multifold rib modular deployable antenna mechanism is proposed. The overall structure scheme design of the antenna is carried out, and the structure composition of the module, the principle of structural topology transformation, and the scheme of mechanism deployment and locking are expounded. According to the shape and constraint relationship of the structure deployment and folded state, and based on basic theory of robotics, calculation and the analysis of key structural parameters and the included angle of rib units are carried out, and the parameterized mathematical model is established. The detailed structural design is carried out, and then the complex structures such as the center beam assembly, diagonal beam assembly, and outer beam assembly are introduced in detail. The kinematic simulation of the mechanism is carried out by using ADAMS software, and the variation law of the motion parameters is analyzed. Finally, the prototype of a hexagonal prism single-module principle is developed, and a deployment function test and verification are carried out. The simulation and test results show that the proposed mechanism can realize the motion change from folded to deployed, and no problems such as interference or clamping are observed in deployment, which verifies the correctness and the feasibility of the structural scheme and principle. Moreover, the proposed new configuration scheme not only retains the characteristics of modular structure, such as good universality and easy expansion, but also has a high storage rate and structure efficiency rate. The research results have a high reference value and relevance for basic theoretical research and the engineering application of a space deployable antenna.
