Vector borne diseases are increasing nowadays and can spread to new locations easily. Diseases like zika virus fever, West Nile fever, malaria, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis, dengue, etc. are examples of mosquito-borne diseases. These diseases are majorly caused by three species of mosquitoes Anopheles, Aedes, and Culex. Most mosquito vector control methods depend upon outdoor spraying, impregnated nets, or indoor residual spraying of chemical insecticides and it was observed that many mosquito species evolved resistance to major pesticide classes. The disadvantages of using chemical pesticides are the development of resistance in mosquitoes and also the harm it causes to other non-target organisms, in addition to the higher cost, more labor, and other drawbacks. Using DEET is also not as preferable as it can induce muscle twitching, seizures, slurred speech, nausea, and rashes. DEET will not give long-term protection against all malaria-causing mosquito species, such as Anopheles. Whereas biocontrol agents used for mosquito control show no environmental pollution or resistance. Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis and Bacillus sphaericus biopesticides tend to remain longer in the environment, particularly in dirty water, and hence may be a viable choice for long-term mosquito control. They have the least adverse effect on living things like humans, domestic animals, and wildlife.

A Insídia das Formas – Ensaio Semiótico Relativo a “Rio Timor” no Atlas Vallard e “Brasilia Inferior” no Globo de Schöner
Authors: Casquilho José Pinto
Published: October 2022

Neste ensaio, partindo-se da menção “Rio timor” no Atlas Vallard datado de 1547, procura-se reconstituir a origem primeva da informação, sustentando-se a hipótese de que os portugueses foram os primeiros europeus a fazer o reconhecimento da linha de costa do que hoje designamos como Austrália. Nessa demanda, conclui-se que existem relatos de cronistas e outros, que permitem situar Francisco Serrão como uma fonte de informação na região das Molucas – mencionando, em cartas, um “umnovo mundo” com vasta extensão - que teria sido encaminhada para Portugal, aí chegando cerca de 1515, incluindo padrão. Infere-se que terá sido essa uma origem provável da representação cartográfica de Brasilie Regio no globo de Schöner datado de 1515, depois atualizado como Brasilia Inferior no globo de 1520, numa configuração cuja semelhança com a linha de costa da parte ocidental australiana é indelével, associando-se com uma anomalia presente na América do Sul no mapa de Brouscon de 1543. Ainda se discute o contexto narrativo e ideológico da época que terá sido suporte de significação dos mapas de Dieppe, com ênfase nos relatos de João Afonso e nas agendas políticas, destacando a política de sigilo que então vigorava na coroa portuguesa com incidência particular na região das Molucas.

Ramanagara is a dry district of Karnataka, which was reconstituted as a separate district from Bengaluru rural in 2007. This region is located in the Cauvery River Basin, primarily agrarian in character with 47% of its total area under agriculture and allied crops. The present study is a review of agricultural profile of Ramanagara district and an assessment of the trends of the production of major agricultural crops of this district over a span of 8 years (2010-2017). Based on the annual reports and other reports published by the government of Karnataka, the secondary data of major crops, its production and productivity has been obtained. Comparative tables have been prepared and the trends of production and productivity of the crops in 2010- 11, 2013-14 and 2016-17 has been assessed using bar charts. Secondary Data on Physical parameters has also been obtained from the annual reports for the above years. A correlation analysis has been performed to understand whether the physical factors have any influence on the production and productivity of the major crops. From the results it is understood that there is no significant influence by the physical factors on crop production. Hence several other reasons such as changing land use pattern, decreasing soil fertility, market demand may have the influence on the production of major agricultural crops, which gives a scope of further research in this region.

Published: October 2022

The ethanol (active) and methanol (toxic) substances content were quantified for commercial sanitizing gels. The health emergency caused by the COVID-19 epidemic has motivated to production of sanitizing gels to cover higher demand. The analytical composition of 24 commercial gels is reported (15 produced by national and transnational companies, and 9 collected gels which were in use at public areas). From the results it was found, that only one brand of 15 gels meets the quality requirements regarding 70% (wt./wt.) of ethanol content. Concerning to the collected gels, none of them contains the minimum active compound required. The non-compliance of this requirement means that these gels present its sanitizing action diminished. A striking result is that 25% of commercially packaged gels contain methanol - a toxic substance - in alarming amounts, hundreds of times more than the FDA upper limits requirement.

DALIT LITERATURE: A TOOL OF RESISTANCE
Authors: Bhat Sami- Ullah , Nair Dr. Tushar
Published: October 2022

In Indian society, the Dalits who are known earlier as untouchables or Shudras have been suffering in the name of Casteism. Even after more than 70 years of achieving Independence, the Dalits are bearing the brunt of torture and humiliation at the hand of upper caste people in many states in India. Dalits, being born in lower castes, are the worst target of embarrassment, dishonour, torture and discrimination. They have been inflicted violence physically or mentally in such a cruel manner that their whole identity is trampled underfoot. For centuries their life has been an epic of traumatic experiences. Their survival was possible at the behest of upper caste people who otherwise treated them like beasts. The wishes and dreams of the Dalits didn’t matter as they had no right to dream for a world of joy and progress. With the passage of time, people in the Dalit community realised the traumatic situation and sufferings of their brethren and decided to give voice through literature to the worst kind of sufferings they had to undergo. It is painfully surprising to think how Dalits were made to bear silently the humiliation and ill-treatment. If one comes across the excruciating accounts of pain and trauma poured down in Dalit literature, one can easily feel the immeasurable pain. Their afflictions are laid open barely before the readers just to make them feel how they will feel, in turn, if they happen to replace their position.
KIRAN DESAI’S PRESENTATION OF THE CHARACTERS FROM DIASPORIC PERSPECTIVE IN THE INHERITANCE OF LOSS
Authors: Kalapala Kalpana Rani , Bhavani Dr.E.
Published: October 2022

The Inheritance of Loss requires background information on two major historical movements in India. The first is British colonial rule in India and eventual Indian independence. At the end of the 16th century, the British aimed to challenge the Portuguese monopoly of trade with Asia. The British East India Company was chartered to carry on the spice trade. In the mid18th century, the British forces, whose duty until then consisted of protecting Company property, teamed up with the commander in chief of the Bengali army, Mir Jafar, to overthrow the leader of Bengal. Jafar was then installed on the throne as a British subservient ruler. The British then realized their strength and potential for conquering smaller Indian kingdoms, and by the mid-19th century, they had gained direct or indirect control over all of present-day India. In 1857, the Indian Rebellion of 1857 took place in an attempt to resist the company’s control of India. The British defeated the rebellion, and the British crown formally took over India and it came under direct British rule and the Indian Civil Service (ICS). The ICS was originally headed by British state officials, but these were gradually replaced by Indian officials in order to appease the public.
EFFECTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL DESECRATION: AN ECOCRITICAL READING OF KAINE AGARY’S YELLOW YELLOW
Authors: Adewumi Samuel
Published: October 2022

No doubt, numerous scholars have carried researches out on Nigeria’s squalid state after her independence. The focus of many of these studies range from investigating many of the topical issues that have come to define the country— from war, economy, to politicking. However, not many scholars have paid the enough attention to the ecological concerns of Nigerians. This paper, therefore, examines Kaine Agary’s Yellow Yellow as a testament to the environmental mindfulness of Kaine Agary, Nigerian novelists. The choice of this text is informed by the fact that there is a dearth of serious scholarly research on the novel. Using the theory of Ecocriticism, this study finds out that the author, Agary, is not unaware of the ecological implications of man’s exploitative tendencies on earth’s resources. In fact, he uses his work to berate these forces that promote the unchecked desecration of the mother earth, using the Niger Delta region of Nigeria as a case study.

A large amount of literature suggests that all aspects of children’s live will be impacted by excessive parental psychological control, and this paper finds that excessive parental psychological control has an impact on children's peer relationships, family relationships, and adolescent maladjustment. In particular, when parents do not exert psychological control over their adolescents, the adolescents may become involved in drugs and substance abuse as a result of low-quality peer relationships. In addition, this paper focuses on the fact that Chinese families have stronger psychological control than Western families, and that there are bidirectional effects of psychological control in the Chinese family samples. The results discussed in this paper may provide direction for future research, as psychological control is stronger in the Chinese sample and has bidirectional effects.

Exploring Affective Justice in Tawfiq al-Hakim’s The Song of Death (Ughniyat al- Mawt)
Authors: Pasha Zainab Nasim , Cheema Amna Umer
Published: October 2022

This research is an attempt to explore the formation of the assemblage of justice in Tawfiq al-Hakim’s The Song of Death (Ughniyat al- Mawt) (2008). The play is Al-Hakim’s rendition of a rural tragedy. Alwan, the son returning from the metropolis, remains caught up in a centuries’ long tribal blood feud. Urged on avenging his father’s murder, and failing to do so, Alwan dampens his mother’s thirst for blood with his own. This paper looks at the play with reference to K. M. Clarke’s merging of the affective theory with the fabric of justice. In this way, the portrayal of both tribal and new formations of systemic justice rising in Nasser’s Egypt will be explored within the play. Furthermore, this research investigates the role past traces and remnants of encounters with justice play in the structuring of justice within the rural scape of modern Egypt. The paper explores and dismantles various binaries presented in the text: tribal and modern, justice and vengeance, and shame and honour. It analyzes the ways in which emotional expressions and affects are articulated and institutionalized by the characters. In addition, the possibility of new imaginaries and cartographies of justice will be explored in order to reframe the debate around the binary of tribal and modern judicialization of violence.
Postcolonial Othering in William Shakespeare’s Play Othello; The Moor of Venice
Authors: Khalil Amna , Ayub Rubab
Published: October 2022

The term postcolonial appeared for the first time in the mid-1980s, in the scholarly journals as subtexts in the writings of Ashcroft, Griffiths, and Tiffin. The term was later established in academic and popular discourse. Its thematic concerns include universality, differences, nationalism, postmodernism, representation and resistance, ethnicity, feminism, language, education, history, place, and production (Ashcroft, Griffiths & Tiffin, 2004.Key Concepts in Postcolonial Studies, p.2). It is the literature that has been created as a voice to the powerless and the poorest members of the global community. “Postcolonial theory deals with the reading and writing of literature written in previously or currently colonized countries; a literature written in colonizing countries which deals with colonization or colonized peoples. It focuses particularly on: the way in which literature by the colonizing culture distorts the experience and realities, and inscribes the inferiority, of the colonized people and on literature by colonized peoples which attempts to articulate their identity and reclaim their past in the face of inevitable Otherness”. (www.shs.westport.k12.ct.us). This paper will be analyzing the text of the play Othello; The Moor of Venice by Shakespeare in terms of the representation of Otherness through the lens of postcolonialism. The love story between Desdemona and Othello was doomed due to the inflexibility of racial politics, the psychology of bodily humours, magic, or the incompatibility of military and private life. Throughout the play, there is the subtle suggestion that Othello, despite his high status, is considered dangerous by his European contemporaries. Brabantio is scandalized when he learns of Othello's relationship with Desdemona, and this revelation almost leads to Othello's arrest and accusations that Othello has kidnapped or stolen his future wife. It's as if the citizens of Venice can't imagine a white woman would have a consensual relationship with a black man, or as if Othello's race poses a threat to the European familial order. Othello continuously subverts this perception, comporting himself with dignity despite European mistrust.
Dijital Emek Platformlarında Toplumsal Cinsiyet Eşitsizlikleri
Authors: URHAN Betül
Published: October 2022

Kadınların emek piyasalarına katılımı, istihdam biçimleri ve koşulları üzerinde küresel düzeyde önemli yapısal kısıtlamalar ve derin eşitsizlikler yaşanmaktadır. İmalat sektöründe ve hizmetler sektöründe uzun zamandır devam eden dış kaynak kullanımı ve taşeronlaştırma eğiliminin bir devamı niteliğinde olan ve cinsiyetsiz olduğu kabul edilen dijital emek platformlarının yükselişi, kadınların işgücü piyasasında karşılaştığı bu eşitsizlikleri azaltacağına ilişkin beklentileri yükseltmiştir. Bu beklentiye sebep olan ise, dijital çalışma platformlarına katılım konusunda çalışanlara daha az engel çıkardığı, uluslararası bir müşteri tabanına erişimi olanaklı kıldığı ve piyasaya dâhil olanlara hızlı bir şekilde gelir elde etme olanağı sağladığına ilişkin düşüncedir. Ancak dijital emek platformlarını toplumsal cinsiyet merceğinden inceleyen araştırmalar geleneksel emek piyasalarında görülen kalıcı ve ısrarlı eşitsizliklerin dijital emek platformlarına da yansıdığını göstermektedir. Bu nedenle çalışmamızda web tabanlı emek platformlarıyla sınırlı olmak üzere bu yansımaların nasıl ve neden gerçekleştiğini incelemeye çalıştık. Bunu yaparken öncelikle dijital emek platformlarının yükselişinin nedenlerine ve bu platformların çalışma ilişkisinde güvencesizlik yaratan özelliklerine odaklandık. Literatür incelemesine ve konuya ilişkin yapılmış araştırmaların sonuçlarına dayanarak makalede, dijital ve teknolojik beceri eşitsizliği nedeniyle kadınların dijital emek platformlarına erkeklere göre daha az katıldığı, mesleki ayrışma ve cinsiyete dayalı ücret farkının çevrimiçi piyasaya çok güçlü bir şekilde yansıdığı, kadınların emek platformlarına katılımının ana nedenlerinden birisinin ücretsiz bakım sorumlulukları nedeniyle evde çalışma olanağını elde etmek olduğu sonucuna ulaştık.

Bu çalışmanın amacı istihdamda eğretiliği ölçmek için bir endeks önermek ve TÜİK’in 2006, 2010 ve 2017 yılları Gelir ve Yaşam Koşulları Araştırmasının fert düzeyinde verileriyle istihdam gruplarının eğretilik düzeyini belirlemektir. Önerilen endeks bileşik bir yapıda olup sosyal güvence, işsizlik ve çalışan yoksulluğu olmak üzere eşit ağırlığa sahip üç toplamsal unsurdan oluşmaktadır. Bulgulara göre, Türkiye’de standart dışı istihdamda eğretilik yıllar içinde artmıştır. Eğretiliğin en yüksek olduğu istihdam grupları gönülsüz yarı-zamanlı çalışanlar ve sözleşmesiz çalışanlardır. Endeks, ek değişkenlerle genişletmeye olanak veren esnek bir yapıya sahiptir ve işgücünün farklı demografik gruplarına uygulanabilir.
Türkiye’de Genç Yetişkin Kadınların İşgücü Durumuna Yönelik Bir İnceleme
Authors: GÖRKEY Selda , ÇAĞLI KAYNAK Elif
Published: October 2022

Gençlikten yetişkinliğe geçiş aşamasında olan bireylerin oluşturduğu genç yetişkinler, genellikle işgücüne yeni katılmış ya da katılmak üzere olduklarından birtakım sorunlarla karşılaşırlar. Bu sorunlar cinsiyet bazında incelendiğinde, kadınların bu süreçte daha fazla güçlükle karşılaştığı görülür. Genç yetişkin kadınlar, öncelikle kadın işgücünün karşılaştığı hane içi sorumluluklar nedeniyle kadın istihdamının ikincil olarak görülmesi problemiyle yüzleşmektedir. Bu durumun da etkisiyle, doğurganlık çağında olan genç yetişkin kadınların sıklıkla çocuk sahibi olma ile işgücünde bulunma arasında tercih yapmaları gerekmektedir. Türkiye’de kadın işgücüne ait problemler ve genç işgücünün karşılaştıkları problemlerin kronikleşerek ileri yaş gruplarına yansıması, işgücünde genç yetişkin kadınların ayrı bir grup olarak incelenmesini önemli hale getirmektedir. Türkiye’de, 25-34 yaş grubundaki genç yetişkin kadınlara ilk kez yönelerek, bu grubun işgücü durumunu makro açıdan araştırmayı amaçlayan çalışma, konuya ilişkin bir durum tespiti yapmayı ve politika önerilerinde bulunmayı hedeflemektedir. Türkiye’de genç yetişkin kadınlarda işgücüne katılım ve istihdam oranları erkeklere göre daha düşük, işsizlik oranı ise daha yüksektir. Yarı-zamanlı çalışanlar içinde, özellikle 30-34 yaş grubunda, kadınların oranı erkeklere göre çok daha yüksek olup; aradaki fark giderek artmaktadır. İstihdamın sektörel dağılımı, genç yetişkin kadınların oldukça büyük bir kısmının hizmetler sektöründe istihdam edildiğini; eğitim düzeyinin incelenmesi ise işgücünde aktif genç yetişkin kadınların yarısından fazlasının yükseköğretim mezunu olduğunu göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla, genç yetişkin kadınların erkeklere kıyasla daha nitelikli olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Çalışma ile son olarak, genç yetişkin kadınlara yönelik bakım yükünü azaltarak işgücüne katılımı arttırmayı ve işsizliği azaltmayı hedefleyen çeşitli politikalar önerilmiştir.
