Authors: Güner Elif Gamze , Batı Kaan
Published: April 2024

The purpose of this study is to examine the perceptions and competencies of secondary school science teachers in Turkey regarding multicultural education. The study was conducted with the explanatory design of mixed methods. Quantitative data were collected with the Multicultural Competence Perceptions Scale and the Multicultural Education Perceptions Scale to determine science teachers' perceptions and competencies regarding multicultural education, and 204 science teachers with different demographic characteristics participated in the study. According to the analysis, science teachers who were older in terms of age and experience had higher perceptions of multicultural education and competencies than other teachers. In addition, the findings suggest that as teachers gain knowledge about multicultural education, their competencies related to multicultural education can be supported.
Local Education Spending and Migration: Evidence from a Large Redistribution Program
Authors: Chauvin Juan Pablo
Published: April 2024

This paper studies the effects of changes in local public education budgets on individual schooling attainment and migration, as well as on local labor market outcomes. I leverage the introduction of FUNDEF, a large federal program that redistributed public education finance across Brazilian municipalities in the late 1990s, as a source of exogenous variation. Using a cohort-exposure design, I find that, at the individual level, doubling the program-related public education budget led to a 1.4 percentage point increase in the likelihood of completing primary school, and a 0.5 percentage point decrease in the likelihood of staying in the local labor market among exposed cohorts, on average. The mobility effects are concentrated among individuals educated in municipalities that received a positive budget shock as a result of the program, which were also characterized by relatively worse local labor market conditions. At the local labor market level, difference-in-differences estimates suggest that higher public education budgets were associated with lower employment rates and average wages, suggesting that the “brain drain” effect depressed local labor demand in the long run.
Features of the Arctic policy of the Republic of Korea
Authors: En Kim
Published: April 2024

The peculiarities of the policy of the Republic of Korea (ROK, South Korea) in the Arctic cannot be correctly assessed without understanding the principles and methods of the country’s foreign policy as a whole, as well as without taking into account the influence of historical traditions. All areas of ROK's foreign policy are implemented within the framework of allied relations with the United States. Outwardly, there are many aspects of diplomacy that seem to have a national flavor in content and goals, in particular, the so-called strategic autonomy of its foreign policy. But ultimately, they are aimed not only and often not so much in the national interests of the country, but are implemented in a wrapper similar to national characteristics, but in reality they serve the interests of the United States. And they are implemented to the extent that they are of interest to the United States and because the United States gives tacit consent to the seemingly independent actions of the Republic of Korea. It would be more correct to say that South Korea's foreign policy is as independent as the United States of America allows it. At the same time, the Republic of Korea often, through its actions, prepares conditions that make it easier for the United States to carry out policies in areas and regions where Washington does not always want to show its interests. This applies to the economy, space sector, nuclear energy, pharmaceuticals, military technology, sports, and show business. These features are also clearly manifested in full in the Arctic policy of the Republic of Korea.
Participação da comunidade no SUS: o desafio da inserção das propostas de uma conferência estadual no plano de saúde correspondente
Authors: Nascimento de Farias Roberto , Aurélio Marques Renan , Finkelsztejn Rodrigo , Brandt Gualdi Carolina
Published: April 2024

A incorporação das demandas de conferências de saúde em seus respectivos planos tem se mostrado um desafio para a efetiva participação da comunidade no planejamento do Sistema Único de Saúde. Assim, este estudo teve por objetivo analisar tal processo de formulação de política pública a partir de uma abordagem qualitativa com base documental, em nível estadual. Para fins comparativos, as propostas do Relatório Consolidado da 8ª Conferência Estadual de Saúde do Rio Grande do Sul e as metas do Plano Estadual de Saúde correspondente foram sistematizadas em seis macrocategorias, subdivididas em 20 categorias operacionais, de acordo com políticas, ações e serviços de saúde, verificando-se em que medida as demandas das propostas foram contempladas pelas metas do PES. Constatou-se que somente 20% das propostas foram inseridas no Plano correspondente. Inúmeros fatores podem contribuir para esse distanciamento entre os documentos analisados, tais como o elevado número de propostas, expressivo percentual de propostas intersetoriais, questões de redação, entre outros. Além disso, sugere-se que uma etapa intermediária, entre a conferência e o Plano, poderia representar uma oportunidade de melhoria para o processamento técnico das propostas, a fim de torná-las exequíveis e passíveis de incorporação.

Authors: James Ighoroje Ese , Agbarha Egberi Kelvin , Emmanuel Akpokerere Othuke
Published: April 2024

The study analyzed whether the Naira note redesign matters for the performance of small and medium-scale enterprises in Nigeria. The study sought to examine (1) effect of the Naira note redesign on the performance of small and medium-scale enterprises; (2) effect of circulation of the new Naira notes on the performance of small and medium scale enterprises; (3) effect of Naira scarcity on the performance of small and-medium scale enterprises. The survey design was used, and questionnaire was administered to three hundred forty-seven (347) small and medium-scale enterprises in the south-east of Nigeria. Data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics (simple percentages, frequency count, mean, standard deviation, kurtosis, skewness, Pearson correlation) and inferential statistics (multiple regression). Findings showed that Naira note redesign has a significant negative effect on the performance of small and medium-scale enterprises. In addition, it was shown that the circulation and scarcity of the new naira notes had a significant effect on the performance of small and medium-scale enterprises in Nigeria. The study recommends that the government should implement currency revaluation and single exchange rate regime, as these would help in stabilizing exchange rates, and reduce uncertainties linked to small and medium-scale enterprises, improve competitiveness, and boost their confidence. Also, governments at all levels should invest in infrastructure, digital training, and enabling regulatory environments to encourage small and medium-scale enterprises to incorporate digital transformations and resilience in their operations, as it would enhance growth and development of small and medium-scale enterprises.
Blockchain Algorithm Literature Review
Authors: W Chango , L Ruiz , F Chito , J Jaramillo , M Iguago
Published: April 2024

Within the last decade, blockchain has become a security technology used to protect the integrity of the information contained in a database, especially in collaborative and open systems. One of its main advantages is that it allows consensus to be reached on the new blocks of data that are added to the chain. There are several other techniques in the literature that claim to be popular new mechanisms. Despite this, the number of these technologies has grown too quickly to separate all the possibilities. This work reviews the types of algorithms that can be implemented to have a network supervised by the participants that integrate it.
Keywords: blockchain, integrity, consensus, algorithm.

Epilithic Diatoms as Bioindicators of Water Quality in the Jimbitono River, Morona Santiago, Ecuador
Authors: Heredia Bolivar , Méndez Patricio , Osorio Miguel
Published: April 2024

The Jimbitono River water quality was evaluated using epilithic diatoms as bioindicators, extending the Water Quality Index and the Water Quality Trophic Index. Three monitoring stations were found along the Jimbitono River with only one record. Physicochemical parameters such as pH, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, nitrates, phosphates, fecal coliforms, temperature, turbidity, total dissolved solids were analyzed. With the Water Quality Index, regular results were obtained for the PJ-01 and PJ-02 stations and poor for the PJ-03 station, the latter being explained by human interventions that are generated upstream of said station. In the analysis of epilithic diatoms, 1800 diatom organisms corresponding to 56 species were found, of which the most representative were Craticula molestiformis with 122 organisms. In the results of the Trophic Index of Water Quality, an oligotrophic level of negligible contamination was acquired for station PJ-01, for PJ-02 a ß-mesotrophic level of moderate contamination, and for PJ-03 an

Authors: Cazorla Ximena , Quisimalin Andrea , Ortega Miltón , Quintuña Pablo , Cornejo Juleysi
Published: April 2024

A bibliographic analysis was made on the different types of indicators, physical, chemical, and biological for the evaluation of soil quality, to contribute with new concepts for the determination of environmental quality, and analyzing the most indicated according to their cost. The physical indicators (texture, soil depth, surface soil and roots, infiltration and bulk density, and water retention capacity), chemical (organic matter (total N and C), pH, electrical conductivity, extractable P, N, and K, among others), and biological (C and N of microbial biomass, respiration, moisture content and temperature, potential mineralizable N). For the choice of an indicator, the following should be taken into consideration the ease, cost, and time, depending on the characteristics of the soil, such as conditions and climate. It can be concluded that the best for determining soil quality are the biological parameters since their cost was $ 22.4, while the most expensive were the ones with an average investment of $ 66.4, budget usually depends on the property to be analyzed.
Keywords: quality, indicator organisms, soil, condition, environmental.

Standards for Presenting Educational Materials in Electronic Education Support Systems
Authors: Nahnybida Andrii
Published: April 2024

As digital education experiences rapid growth, an increasing number of institutions are adopting e-learning standards for effective and efficient dissemination of information and educational materials. E-learning standards simplify content delivery, tracking, and management across various systems, thereby fostering flexibility and control in the learning process. Institutions can harness these standards to optimize content creation and delivery processes, saving time and resources, and enhancing student engagement.This article delves into four pivotal e-learning standards employed for presenting educational content in electronic learning systems: SCORM, xAPI, the IMS Global Learning Consortium standards, and the IEEE Learning Technology Standards Committee (LTSC). The IEEE LTSC, a division of the IEEE Standards Association, is responsible for crafting technical benchmarks for learning technologies. Its primary goal is to curate a comprehensive suite of standards to support the implementation of learning technologies that are compatible, enduring, and scalable. These standards encompass a broad spectrum of topics, including content object metadata, learner information, educational content packages, and data modeling. Their application spans various e-learning facets, ranging from content creation and delivery to tracking student progress.Implementing IEEE LTSC standards typically entails adapting or developing e-learning systems or content in line with the respective standard’s specifications. This can involve structuring learning content metadata per the LOM standard or modeling learner data according to the Learner Information Package standard. Proper comprehension of technical specifications and standard requirements is paramount for accurate implementation. Testing and validation processes are often essential to ensure correct standard application and system or content compatibility with other systems adhering to the same standard.
What is New in the Latest Release of Mathpar-DAP Runtime
Authors: Sidko Alla
Published: April 2024

In this paper, we recall the main features of the DAP runtime, that was published in [4]. But the main purpose of this paper is to describe the new functionality that appeared in our latest release. As an example of a block recursive algorithm, the Cholesky factorization of a symmetric positive definite matrix in the form of a block dichotomous algorithm is described. The results of experiments demonstrate good scalability of the proposed solution. Modern supercomputer systems containing hundreds of thousands of cores face difficulties in the organization of parallel computations (e.g., see [1]). The three main difficulties are the nonuniform hardware workload, accumulation of errors in the process of computations with large matrices, and possible failures of cores during the computation process.Recently, a universal Dynamic Task Discovery (DTD) scheme for the PaRSEC runtime environment [2], [3] has been developed. This environment can support systems with shared and distributed memory. This new paradigm demonstrated better performance compared with the parameterized task scheduling that was used earlier.In [1] we described a new runtime environment for supercomputers with distributed memory. It is designed for solving matrix problems using block recursive algorithms.Its main advantage is to provide an efficient computational process and good scalability of programs both for sparse and dense matrices on a cluster with distributed memory. Another advantage is the ability to reorganize the computational process in the event of failure of individual nodes during computations.A key feature of DAP is its ability to sequentially unroll functions in depth, maintaining all states at any nesting level until all computations in the current computational subtree are complete. This design allows any processor to switch freely between subtasks without waiting for the completion of the current subtask.An important feature of this runtime environment is protection against failures of some nodes during computations. The parent node that sent a drop to its child node must receive a result. However, instead of a result, it may receive a message regarding the status of the child node. In such cases, the drop task is redirected to an alternate node. No additional changes to the other nodes are required. As a result, only the subtree corresponding to this drop will be lost and subsequently recalculated.We would like to develop cooperation in this scientific area. The software package developed by us is open for joint development, and can be freely used for scientific and educational purposes.
TRANSFORMATION OF PRECEDENT NAMES IN THE UKRAINIAN HUMORISTIC DISCOURSE 2022-2024
Authors: Shevchuk Larysa
Published: April 2024

The article is devoted to the study of the linguistic mechanisms of the transformation of precedent names in the Ukrainian humorous discourse of the wartime. The purpose of the study was to identify structural semantic and communicative‑pragmatic features of innovative precedents in modern humorous discourse. Source base research served transformed precedent names in modern Ukrainian television entertainment programs, parodies of Yuri the Great, humor in Telegram channels for 2022–2024. Four types of precedent names were analyzed: anthroponyms, toponyms, ergonims, and chrononyms. It was found that the most active in all groups is the contaminating type of derivatives formed by superimposing one creative base on another. In second place in terms of the number of recorded contaminants is the method of separating one creative base into another. Word‑forming contamination is considered as a manifestation of the language game, which acquires a pronounced pragmatic focus on relieving psychological stress, overcoming the negativity of war with the help of humor. It is proved that contemptuous transformative names associated with the aggressor country, representatives of its authorities, propagandists, and cultural figures who have become supporters of the imperial‑militarist policy acquire a tonality. Negative assessment of a person or phenomenon occurs with the help of colloquial reduced vocabulary, which creates an ironic coloring of the neoplasm. The synthetic functionality of contaminants, which simultaneously perform nominative, evaluative and expressive functions, is substantiated. The investigation reveals that, stylistically, the comic effect of most of the transformed precedent names is caused by punning paronomasia. Thanks to the paronymic attraction, the innovators synthesize the sound envelope and meaning of two paronyms, which allows turning the terrible phenomena of wartime into comical ones through mockery, avoiding “hate speech”.
TYPES OF DIRECTORS’ FIDUCIARY DUTIES IN COMMON LAW COUNTRIES
Authors: Tkachuk I. O.
Published: April 2024

The article seeks to explore the types of fiduciary duties assigned to a director of a legal entity in Common Law countries. It focuses on the essence, characteristics, and legal nature of the fiduciary duties and presents existing pieces of scientific research in this field, identifies specific features and provides the list of types of fiduciary duties in the Common Law countries.
Ukraine’s integration in the European Union proves the need for significant amendments to Ukrainian laws in order to bring them into harmony with the EU laws. This creates preconditions for full-featured integration of the concept of company officials’ fiduciary duties in the national legal system. The profound exploration and research of fiduciary duties and, in particular, their types within English law may contribute to adaption of the Ukrainian company laws to the European Union standards, inter alia, when it comes to recodification of civil laws of Ukraine.
The article seeks to explore the types of fiduciary duties assigned to a director of a legal entity in Common Law countries using analysis, analogy, deduction, induction, synthesis, legal and historical, systematic and functional, as well as comparative methods of cognition. It focuses on the essence, characteristics, and legal nature of the fiduciary duties and presents existing pieces of scientific research in this field, identifies specific features and provides the list of types of fiduciary duties in the Common Law countries.
The analysis of the provisions of English laws has revealed that fiduciary duties in the Common Law countries are based on the institute of trust and depend on the nature of parties’ relations and duties. By virtue of the authority vested in a company director by law, the director often fulfills fiduciary duties in respect of their company. The key element underlying the director’s fiduciary duties is loyalty to the company.
Despite the detailed regulation at the level of law and court precedents, there is no exhaustive classification of fiduciary duties by certain types. Therefore, it is feasible to introduce a classification of types of fiduciary duties in national legislation, which would facilitate the development of corporate governance. The existence of clear types of fiduciary duties would also allow for the introduction of liability for their breach.
LEGAL INSTRUMENTS FOR COMPENSATION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF RUSSIA’S MILITARY AGGRESSION AGAINST UKRAINE
Authors: Taranenko S. M.
Published: April 2024

The article is devoted to the consideration of scientific approaches to compensation for environmental damage caused by the military aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine. A review of the existing and search for new legal instruments was carried out, including the international legal nature of compensation for damages caused to the environment as a result of the armed conflict according to the relevant procedures in future court proceedings. Emphasis is placed on the fact that legal instruments in the researched area are complex legal institutions and have different legal nature and administrative character, organizational features and forms of actual implementation. The current legislation on the subject of compensation for environmental damage caused by the military actions of the aggressor country on the territory of Ukraine was analyzed, according to the relevant directions, such as: damage caused to the nature reserve fund; loss of subsoil and forest resources; damage to land, water resources and atmospheric air. It was established that one of the legal instruments for the compensation of environmental damages in the context of their use can be international agreements, in particular the environmental agreement for Ukraine; the international register of losses, including its digital platform with all data on statements and evidence contained in it and to be taken into account when establishing the fact and amount of losses; lawsuits by citizens of Ukraine and collective ones, including public organizations; funds for the payment of compensation for the losses incurred, which will be filled at the expense of the frozen assets of Russia or in another way; international ad hoc commissions are flexible instruments created to deal with mass claims arising from international crises. A conclusion and proposals were made regarding the importance of legal instruments that affect the process of providing compensation for war losses to Ukraine, and are important for the improvement and further development of the legislation, which are relevant today.

ENTRE TELAS & TEXTOS: ELEMENTAR ENQUANTO TRANSPOSIÇÃO LITERÁRIA
Authors: Silva Dantas Raquel , De Jesus de Oliveira Marcelo
Published: April 2024

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo analisar comparativamente a série de televisão Elementar (CBS), uma releitura contemporânea das obras de Sherlock Holmes do escritor escocês Arthur Conan Doyle, para que se perceba as diferenças narrativas entre as duas expressões da arte, buscando assim compreender como a adaptação literária acontece e quão grande as transformações podem ser na transposição, sendo elas positivas ou não, e o impacto que elas têm no público e na crítica especializada, além de entender o que é modificado por necessidade e o que é desconstruído por interesse narrativo. Para tanto, o seriado americano Elementar, fora analisado a partir de obras de autores como Ricardo André Ferreira Lima (2015), James Wood (2017), e outros que discutem em seus livros e artigos a relação que o cinema e a literatura desenvolveram em mais de um século. Como resultados finais, viu-se que a literatura contribuiu significativamente com as histórias levadas às telas, mesmo quando eram mudas, sendo a transposição para o audiovisual um dos mais significativos avanços de intercâmbio entre artes, possibilitando diversas recriações como acontece com Elementar, ao adaptar a literatura de Sherlock Holmes como uma história policial do século XXI.
O CRUZAMENTO ENTRE O FICCIONAL E A HISTORIOGRAFIA EM NAMBUANGONGO, DE JOÃO BERNARDO DE MIRANDA
Authors: Bembo Manuel José
Published: April 2024

O presente artigo intitula-se O Cruzamento entre o Ficcional e a Historiografia em Nambuangongo, de João Bernardo de Miranda e limitar-se-á no estudo da literatura e experiência histórica na narrativa de ficção angolana, através do percurso histórico das personagens da obra Nambuangongo, de João Bernardo de Miranda. Portanto, a investigação desenvolver-se-á mediante a análise bibliográfica e registo dos traços que caracterizam as relações entre os fatos históricos e o seu impacto nos destinos do país – Angola - na concepção da narrativa em estudo através das perspetivas sociais e políticas. No artigo, nossas metas são demonstrar como a tessitura literária ficciona a História de Angola, mais concretamente as guerras de luta anti-colonial e o impacto do 27 de Maio nos destinos do país, distinguir as temáticas em destaque na narrativa em estudo e os objetivos da criação literária durante a primeira década posterior à independência de Angola, com maior incidência para a de João Bernardo de Miranda. O estudo conduziu-nos à demonstração de que, na narrativa em estudo, ocorre o cruzamento entre o ficcional e a Historiografia, ou seja, ficcionalizam-se acontecimentos da História real de Angola, desde o início da década de 60 até 1978. Analisamos como a recriação do sociopolítico e histórico angolano em Nambuangongo marca uma versão histórica há muito contada e repudia as decisões políticas que ditaram os destinos de Angola no pós-independência.
A MEMÓRIA CULTURAL EM O VENDEDOR DE PASSADOS, DE JOSÉ EDUARDO AGUALUSA
Authors: Cruz Laylah Yaphah Coêlho , Pinheiro Carlos André
Published: April 2024

Este trabalho objetiva investigar a presença da memória cultural no romance O vendedor de passados (2004), do escritor contemporâneo angolano José Eduardo Agualusa. O vendedor de passados narra a história de Félix, um homem que forja e vende memórias e passados nobres para indivíduos que compõem a nova burguesia angolana. Entretanto, os conflitos na obra se adensam conforme os personagens percebem que há uma linha tênue entre ficção e a realidade e já não se pode afirmar com clareza qual passado realmente aconteceu e quais memórias são válidas. Segundo o sistema de redução estrutural desenvolvido pelo crítico literário Antonio Candido (1993), uma obra literária, em seu caráter interno, pode adquirir uma realidade estruturante pautada na realidade externa do mundo, o que possibilita a Agualusa representar em sua narrativa uma Angola marcada pela guerra civil (1975-2002), bem como diversos elementos culturais marcadamente angolanos e catalizadores da memória desse grupo social. Desse modo, através de elementos e recursos mnemônicos, o autor expõe conjunturas históricas e a organização social dessa Angola. Assim, as análises deste trabalho se subsidiarão, sobretudo, nos pensamentos de: Aleida Assmann (2011) e Jan Assmann (2011), com suas contribuições sobre memória cultural; Antonio Candido (1993) e seu sistema de redução estrutural; e, Maurice Halbwachs (1990) com sua teoria de memória coletiva.
HISTORY AND NOVEL IN ANTIQUITY: THE CHRONICLES OF DICTYS AND DARES
Authors: Silva Gelbart
Published: April 2024

This article aims to discuss about the relationship between history and novel in the context of Antiquity. To do this, two prose narratives were chosen: Ephemeris Belli Troiani (Journal of the Trojan War), dating from the 4th century AD, and De Excidio Troiae Historia (History of the Fall of Troy), dating from the 5th century AD. Ephemeris and De Excidio retell the Trojan War from a perspective of two soldiers and establish intertextuality with Homer and the entire classical collection of the Trojan myth. These two similar works develop a process of transforming what was considered myth into historical fact. They do it through demythologization and historicization, it is, making the divine presence and heroic power fading out and putting elements from historical discourse in the rhetoric of their narrative. This narrative structure has led some authors to assume the possibility of characterizing the two works as “historical fictions” or even “historical novels”. In this paper, this possibility will analyzed in order to problematize the criteria of distinction between historical and fictional narratives and the issues about crystalized model of the genres. In conclusion, the description of the two works reveals the approximation to the historical novel and, despite the distance in the time, could be both considered a type among the many specimens of this literary genre.
LENGUAS INDÍGENAS EN LA PRODUCCIÓN DE CONOCIMIENTO ACADÉMICO: UNA REVISIÓN CRÍTICA DESDE EL SISTEMA UNIVERSITARIO ARGENTINO
Authors: Dubin Mariano
Published: April 2024

El presente artículo realiza un análisis de las lenguas indígenas en la producción de conocimiento académico a partir de una revisión crítica realizada desde el sistema universitario argentino. Se avanza así en una investigación particularizada del Plan de Estudio del Profesorado en Letras de la Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educación de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata (Argentina). Este caso particular nos permite realizar un estudio mayor sobre el lugar de las lenguas, y en particular de las lenguas indígenas, en la formación universitaria. Por último, este análisis nos permite indagar sobre la ausencia de las lenguas indígenas (y también de sus literaturas y sus saberes históricos) de las currículas universitarias.
ENTRE O NARRADO, O LEMBRADO E O VIVIDO: NARRATIVAS DE MEMÓRIA DE MULHERES DA COMUNIDADE QUILOMBOLA SANTO ANTÔNIO DOS PRETOS, CODÓ-MA
Authors: Da Silva Carvalho Caio , Maria Pantoja dos Santos Silvana

Resumo: A memória é o mecanismo responsável por guardar o passado do ser humano, em torno das particularidades e coletividades capazes de remontar a identidade, a história e a cultura tanto dos indivíduos em seu íntimo como da sociedade na qual estes se inserem. Quando rememoradas, as vivências do ser humano são evocadas, de modo que possamos refletir sobre os sujeitos com base nesses relatos. Diante disso, o presente artigo analisa os relatos orais de mulheres da Comunidade Santo Antônio dos Pretos, a partir dos vieses memorialísticos que compõem o narrado. O artigo é resultado do projeto “As teias de Ariadne: narrativas de memórias de mulheres da comunidade quilombola Santo Antônio dos Pretos, Codó - MA”, financiado pela FAPEMA – Edital Igualdade de Gênero nº 07/2016, cuja metodologia pauta-se, primeiramente, em discussões bibliográficas, amparadas nos estudos de Maurice Halbwachs (1990), Ecléa Bosi (2003), Beatriz Sousa (2015), João Batista Machado (1999), entre outros. Em segundo plano, este trabalho se efetiva através de pesquisa de campo, em visitas a Santo Antônio dos Pretos. Desse modo, foram substanciais as observações das rodas de diálogo com as mulheres da comunidade, que evocam suas lembranças cotidianas, metodologia capaz de desvelar subjetividades. Tendo em vista isso, foi possível perceber que a memória é um alicerce imprescindível quando pensamos a história, a tradição e a cultura de um povo. Os relatos orais de memórias das mulheres quilombolas suscitaram a reflexão sobre a construção da identidade destas, bem como as diversas formas de autoafirmação feminina, que as pesadas rotinas de trabalho não foram capazes de apagar.
EMICIDA E MCK ENTRE A RIMA E A LUTA: UMA LEITURA DO RAP EM ANGOLA E NO BRASIL
Authors: Melo Elivelton dos Santos Melo , Carvalho da Fonseca Silvana
Published: April 2024

Este texto analisa as produções estéticas Rap Crespo, do rapper angolano MCK, e Ismália, do rapper brasileiro Emicida. Visa-se discutir as aproximações, diferenças e diálogos nas produções artísticas dos rappers angolano e brasileiro a partir de um olhar crítico e decolonial, articulando experiência histórica e experiência estética. Separados pelo oceano atlântico, Angola e Brasil são constituídos por diferentes culturas e modos de vidas, porém mantêm uma proximidade histórica e linguística; ambos os países foram colonizados pelos portugueses, os quais impuseram um imaginário, uma língua e forçaram essas populações a passarem por um processo violento de escravização e dispersão forçada. Portanto, essas múltiplas realidades que atravessam o contexto pós-colonial carregam heranças escravocratas e coloniais, por isso os artistas/ativistas desses dois espaços mantêm interligações na busca pela reconstrução de imaginários ligados às populações negras a partir de narrativas e práticas artísticas que produzem um novo olhar sobre as experiências negras no mundo a contrapelo da violência que desumaniza corpos negros. Assim, amparados na produção artística angolana e brasileira, procuramos pensar na mobilização de “textos outros” na educação brasileira, baseados em leis como a 10.639/03 e a 11.645/08 que trazem a obrigatoriedade do ensino das relações étnicas e raciais na educação nacional, conduzindo, desse modo, possíveis caminhos de luta antirracista através da educação decolonial.
REVISTA QUIXOTE E A LITERATURA AFRO LATINO AMERICANA EM “CONHEÇA A AMÉRICA, AMIGO!”, DE SÍLVIO DUNCAN
Authors: Venturini Aline
Published: April 2024

A presente pesquisa analisa a presença da literatura afro hispano-americana no texto “Conheça a América, amigo!”, de Sílvio Duncan, publicado na revista Quixote no.2 (1948). O ensaio de Duncan (1948) demonstra e defende um dos objetivos da produção do grupo Quixote e de sua revista, que é o de maior divulgação da literatura hispano-americana realizada pelos demais países latino-americanos, ao destacarem o seu desconhecimento e o maior predomínio e valorização das literaturas lusitana e francesa no Rio Grande do Sul no final da década de 1940 e início de 1950 no século XX. Neste caso, o foco do artigo é analisar como o autor defende a reivindicação de maior divulgação e conhecimento da literatura afro-latino-americana em um contexto em que a literatura eurocêntrica era mais valorizada, e, por isso, discorre as afirmações do texto em questão e expõe as ações efetuadas pelo grupo para este fim ao longo de sua trajetória. Como fundamentação crítica e teórica, nos ancoramos em Miguel de Unamuno (1913), Walsh (2012), a teoria da Educação Decolonial, e em Regina Zilbermann (1982).
LITERATURA ENTRANHADA DE MULHERES NEGRAS (DES)ENRAIZADAS
Authors: Fernandez Raffaella  Andrea
Published: April 2024

Resumo: Esse texto pensa o encontro literário entre Françoise Ega (1920 - 1976) e Carolina Maria de Jesus (1914/1919/1921-1977). Ambas escritoras negras que encontraram na literatura um espaço para imaginar, curar, transmutar e tecer percursos possíveis em seus processos diaspóricos. Seja a martinicana Ega escrevendo em Marseille, seja a minera Carolina situada em São Paulo, em seus respectivos espaços distantes de onde viveram até a adolescência, formularam e nutriram seus textos-raízes não apenas como um retorno às suas origens, mas também como fomento e recomposição de novos enraizamentos. Ega, expande e entranha suas palavras-linhas até o Brasil reconhecendo em Carolina um espelho de onde brota memórias em suas missivas, jamais lidas pela autora brasileira, mas, no entanto, encontrou na atual recepção a constatação de que persistem as “misérias dos pobres do mundo inteiro (que) se parecem como irmãs”.

Factors Influencing Gender Equality
Authors: Okan Aslıhan
Published: April 2024

While gender is the genetic, physiological, and biological characteristics of a person as a woman or a man, gender is the social identity roles with the personality features that are formed by the social and cultural evaluation of the differences between men and women. Gender is a term that relates to how society sees, perceives, thinks, and wants a person to behave as a man or a woman. Socialization is a process by which a person becomes a part of society and gains identity and gender stereotypes. Gender equality means that women and men have equal rights before the law, treated equally, and benefit from opportunities and services in society. This article draws attention to the existence of conditions that show that gender inequality is against women in the 21st century.
