Published: December 2018

In present study, some soil characteristics of Sesamum indicum L. (Sesame) and its adjacent blank field (control) were compared in a growing season as pre (PreC and PreS) and post (PostC and PostS) harvest in Adana, Turkey. Soil macro (C, N, P and K) and micronutrients (Cu, Zn, Mn and Fe), carbon (Cmin) and nitrogen mineralizations and soil aerobic bacteria and fungi counts were determined in before and after harvest soils. Soils were humidified at 80% of their field capacity and then monitored for 45 days at 28 Â°C to determine soil carbon (Cmin) and nitrogen (Nmin) mineralization. Generally, macro and micronutrients (Cu, Zn, Mn and Fe) were higher in control than sesame field except phosphorus (P2O5) and there were found significant differences between them before and after harvest. Aerobic bacteria and fungi populations were decreased after harvest while fungi populations were increased in sesame soils compared to control. Soil CO2-C evolution was higher in sesame field than control. Rates of carbon mineralization was in order as following PostC < PreC < PostS< PreS. Rate of Nmin was significantly higher in sesame soils before harvest but it was lower after harvest compared to control. Carbon mineralization rates in sesame grown soils were significantly decreased and it was in order as following PostC < PreC < PostS < PreS. Decrease in soil carbon mineralization after harvest can be explained with decrease in soil microbial populations in short term.

Authors: Demir Saniye , Oğuz İrfan , Özer Erhan
Published: December 2018

Tokat is one of the developing provinces in terms of urbanism. Therefore, the land use changes city-wide which closely affects soil erosion. Numerical estimation of soil erosion is very important to prevent soil losses. In this study, USLE and WEPP Hillslope model were used to estimate the long-term soil losses in a slope area which used to be a pasture land and then turned into a fruit orchard in Büyükbeybağı area of Tokat province. Erosion sensitivity of the soil in the slope area was detected to be very low. Erosivity value of the area is low, soil is resistant to erosion due to pasture land use type and fruit orchard use type does not require intense soil cultivation practices. For all these reasons, both estimation technologies estimated soil losses of the land to be low.
The causal relationship between urbanization and economic growth in US: Fresh evidence from the Toda–Yamamoto approach
Authors: SALIMINEZHAD ANDISHEH , BAHRAMIAN PEJMAN
Published: December 2018

This study aims to investigate the causal relationships between urbanization and economic growth for the United State during the period 1960- 2017. We utilize the time series technique known as Toda-Yamamoto method, which efficiently works even with the variables co-integrated of arbitrary order. Empirical findings suggest a unidirectional Granger causality running from urbanization to economic growth, and no Granger causality detected from economic growth to urbanization for the long run. The findings prove that urbanization is nominated as a main driving force of economic growth.

A model of wax deposition under oil-gas two-phase stratified flow in horizontal pipe
Authors: Duan Jimiao , Li Jiang , Liu Huishu , Gu Kecheng , Guan Jinfa , Xu Shuo , Gong Jing
Published: December 2018

A model of wax deposition based on molecular diffusion mechanism, for oil-gas two-phase stratified pipe flow is developed. In the model, unidirectional fully developed flow analyses of momentum, heat and mass transfer are presented. And, a cube cage model is used to describe the wax deposit structure considering the effect of oil flow shear on the deposit. Calculation of wax deposit is compared well with a flow loop experiment. In particular, the model could give the wax deposit forming a crescent shape at the cross section of pipe, which is observed in different experiments. Furthermore, the cause of forming a crescent shape is revealed, which is indicated by the non-uniform circumferential distribution of mass flux for wax deposition along the pipe wall wetted by the oil. The mass flux from oil bulk flow to the oil-deposit interface is closely related to three parameters, diffusivity at oil-deposit interface, the temperature gradient at the oil-deposit interface at different time, and the slope of the wax solubility curve at oil-deposit interface temperature.
ENTEROPARASITOSES PROVOCADAS POR PROTOZOÁRIOS VEICULADOS ATRAVÉS DA ÁGUA CONTAMINADA

Published: December 2018

Com o crescimento populacional, cresce a necessidade de fontes de água doce, seja na configuração de poços, rios, riachos ou lagos. Por outro lado, observa-se um contínuo e crescente processo de degradação em função do despejo de esgotos in natura ou tratados, de fezes de animais, além dos efluentes resultantes das atividades industriais. Em vista da intrínseca relação da falta de tratamento da água e enteroparasitoses, o objetivo desta revisão de literatura é atestar sobre os principais parasitas intestinais detectados, suas características e doenças associadas. Para a realização deste trabalho, foi feita uma busca nas bases de dados Google acadêmico, SciELO e PubMed, entre os anos de 2009 a 2017, totalizando 39 publicações. As enteroparasitoses são doenças que tem como agentes etiológicos helmintos ou protozoários intestinais. Os danos dependem diretamente de fatores como a espécie parasitária que provocou a contaminação, intensidade da infecção, e o estado nutricional e imunológico do hospedeiro; além disso, a orientação quanto às formas de transmissão e a conscientização sobre a correta higienização evitam a disseminação. Dessa forma, é imprescindível a realização de campanhas de conscientização a respeito da poluição das águas como mecanismo disseminador de doenças. Bem como, maiores investimentos no que tange ao saneamento básico como forma de interceptar tais agentes etiológicos.

ENTEROPARASITOSES CAUSED BY PROTOZOARS VEILULATED THROUGH CONTAMINATED WATER

ABSTRACT

With population growth, there is a growing need for freshwater sources, whether in the configuration of wells, rivers, streams or lakes. On the other hand, there is a continuous and increasing process of degradation due to the discharge of fresh or treated sewage, animal feces, as well as effluents resulting from industrial activities. In view of the intrinsic relation of the lack of water treatment and enteroparasitoses, the objective of this literature review is to attest to the main intestinal parasites detected, their characteristics and associated diseases. For the accomplishment of this work, a search was made in the databases Google academic, SciELO and PubMed, between the years of 2009 to 2017, totaling 39 publications. Enteroparasitoses are diseases that have etiological agents helminths or intestinal protozoa. The damage depends directly on factors such as the parasitic species that caused the contamination, the intensity of the infection, and the nutritional and immunological state of the host; in addition, guidance on ways of transmission and awareness of proper sanitation avoid dissemination. In this way, it is essential to carry out awareness campaigns on water pollution as a dissemination mechanism of diseases. As well as, greater investments in basic sanitation as a way of intercepting such etiological agents.

Metal Nanowire Felt as a Flow-Through Electrode for High-Throughput Electrosynthesis
Authors: Kim Myung Jun , Seo Youngran , Cruz Mutya , Wiley Benjamin
Published: December 2018

The low productivity of organic electrosynthesis limits the adoption of this green methodology for production of organic chemicals. This work examines to what extent reducing the size of the fibers in a flow-through electrode to the nanoscale can increase the productivity of electrosynthesis. A Cu nanowire felt, made from nanowires 45 times smaller than the 10-μm-wide fibers in carbon paper, achieved a productivity 278 times higher than carbon paper for mass transport-limited reduction of Cu ions. For an intramolecular cyclization reaction that was limited by both mass and charge transfer kinetics, the Cu nanowire felt achieved a productivity 4.2 times higher than carbon paper. This work demonstrates large gains in productivity can be achieved with nanostructured flow-through electrodes, but that potential gains can be limited by charge transfer kinetics.

We demonstrate a controllable mechanochemical synthesis of cocrystal polymorphs of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and nicotinamide (vitamin B3) on different scales and without using bulk solvents. Next to the previously described polymorph of the 1:1 cocrystal, which is one of the first cocrystals approved for human consumption, we report here a new, thermodynamically more stable polymorph detected during in situ synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction monitoring of milling reactions. The new polymorph is currently available exclusively by mechanochemical synthesis, and its crystal structure was determined from powder X-ray diffraction data. Laboratory in situ monitoring by Raman spectroscopy provided direct insight into the cocrystals formation and was further used to optimize the manufacturing procedure. Sub-gram synthesis using laboratory mixer mill was transferred to the 10 g scale on a planetary ball mill and continuous manufacturing using a twin-screw extruder. Both cocrystal polymorphs perform excellently in tableting, thus alleviating the notoriously poor compactible properties of vitamin C, while the mechanochemical cocrystallization does not harm its antioxidant properties.
Quantum Chemical Characterization of Factors Affecting the Neutral and Radical-Cation Newman-Kwart Reactions
Authors: Chiniforoush Sina , Cramer Christopher J.
Published: December 2018

Details of the electronic and geometric structures of stationary points along the reaction coordinate of the Newman Kwart rearrangement, which transforms an O-arylthiocarbamate to an S-arylcarbamothioate, are examined using quantum chemical methods for a large number of compounds considering both the thermal reactions of uncharged substrates as well as the corresponding reactions of radical cation substrates generated under photoredox conditions. The uncharged mechanism, which has intrinsically high 298 K free energies of activation (in excess of 30 kcal.mol–1), has the character of nucleophilic aromatic substitution and is thus accelerated by electron-withdrawing substituents on the aromatic ring. The radical cationic mechanism, by contrast, has 298 K free energies of activation that are typically below 20 kcal.mol–1, and is accelerated by electron donating substituents on the aromatic ring, which stabilize the hole character that is transferred to this fragment from the thiocarbamate fragment as the reaction proceeds. Opportunities to further accelerate the radical cation reaction are revealed by computational assessment of alternative amino groups for the thiocarbamate functionality.
Synthesis of L-DOPA Based Melanins with Reproducible Physic-Chemical Properties
Authors: Vercruysse Koen , Moore Jayla
Published: December 2018

This report expands our ongoing research efforts into the non-enzymatic synthesis of melanins. We have explored four different methods for the synthesis of L-DOPA based melanins and evaluated the reproducibility of some of their physic-chemical properties. The melanins were synthesized through the addition of NaOH, tyrosinate or Fe2+/H2O2. Two different approaches for the reactions involving Fe2+ and H2O2 were tested: a) addition of H2O2 spread out over multiple days or b) addition of H2O2 in one fraction at the start of the reaction. The physic-chemical properties of the melanins explored involved: 1) retention on size exclusion chromatography column, 2) FT-IR spectroscopy, 3) UV-Vis spectroscopy and 4) the capacity to reduce a redox dye, dichlorophenolindophenol. Overall the results obtained indicated that 1) the various synthesis methods lead to melanins with reproducible physic-chemical properties, 2) that the melanins synthesized in the presence of Fe2+/H2O2 are distinctly different from the melanins synthesized in the presence of NaOH or tyrosinate and 3) that no distinctly different melanins were generated when comparing the two different synthesis approaches involving Fe2+/H2O2. Only the melanins synthesized in the presence of Fe2+/H2O2 appeared to possess the capacity to reduce dichlorophenolindophenol.

Gıda Güvenliği Konusunda Tüketici Davranışlarının Belirlenmesi: Samsun İli Kentsel Alan Örneği
Authors: AYDIN ERYILMAZ Gamze , KILIÇ Osman , BAŞER Uğur
Published: December 2018

Araştırmanın
amacı, Samsun ili kentsel alanda ikamet eden tüketicilerin gıda güvenliğiyle
ilgili davranışlarının belirlenmesidir. Araştırma verileri, ailede gıda satın
alma kararında etkili 384 tüketiciden anket yoluyla elde edilmiştir. Tüketici
davranışları, gıda güvenliği kavramından haberdar olma ve olmama durumuna göre
iki grupta incelenmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, tüketicilerin %55.47’si
gıda güvenliği kavramından haberdar olduklarını, %44.53’ü haberdar
olmadıklarını ifade etmişlerdir. Gıda güvenliğinden haberdar olan tüketicilerin
%44.13’ü güvenilir gıdayı sağlıklı, %19.25’i sertifikalı, %16.43’ü son kullanma
tarihi geçmemiş, %11.27’si katkı maddesi içermeyen, %4.69’u kaliteli, %4.23’ü
ise hijyenik gıda olarak tanımlamışlardır. Gıda etiketi üzerinde yer alan son
kullanma tarihi, üretim tarihi, katkı maddesi içeriği ve enerji/besin değerine dikkat
edilmesi açısından, gruplar arasındaki farklılık istatistiki olarak önemli
bulunmuştur. Araştırma sonuçları, gıda güvenliğinden haberdar olmayan tüketicilerin
gıdalar konusundaki duyarlılıklarının daha düşük olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu
nedenle toplumdaki tüm bireyler için gıda güvenliği konusunda hassasiyet
oluşturulması ve bilinç düzeyinin artırılması gerekmektedir. Ayrıca gıda
üretiminin büyük ölçüde tüketici talebine bağlı olması, tüketici odaklı üretim
ve pazarlama stratejilerinin geliştirilmesini gerekli kılmaktadır.
« Être auteure, ce n’est pas encore être » : La visibilité féminine à travers les BD de Judith Forest
Authors: Gheno Marine
Published: December 2018

Dans cette citation du second (et dernier) album signé Judith Forest (Momon, 71), la question de l'existence de l'auteur.e est posée. Sont mis en cause le rôle et l’identité de l’auteur de créations artistiques (en référence au travail de Sartre, Foucault ou Barthes) autant que l’existence réelle et physique derrière le nom « Judith Forest. » Je propose d’examiner la question de la visibilité des femmes dans la BD française (et la sphère publique française) à travers l’exemple de Judith Forest dont le travail a fait beaucoup de bruit en 2009 et 2011 en France pour finalement révéler une auteure fictive, une créature de papier créée par ses éditeurs. La maison d'édition indépendante et bruxelloise La Cinquième Couche a bénéficié grandement de la médiatisation des albums de qualité de Forest construits sur une « imposture » masculine qui révèle un malaise au niveau de la légitimité des femmes auteures françaises et de l'aspect médiatique des œuvres intimes au féminin en France. Nous avancerons que, malgré la qualité artistique de l’œuvre et l’intérêt suscité par ses questionnements existentiels et culturels, l’invisibilité ou le retrait de visibilité féminine peut avoir des conséquences importantes sur le milieu artistique de la BD et la présence des femmes dans la sphère publique en France.
Les figures hybrides dans Les Chemins qui montent de Mouloud Feraoun
Authors: Hsu Chia-hua
Published: December 2018

La présente étude se focalise sur les figures hybrides et métisses dans Les Chemins qui montent de l’écrivain algérien d’origine kabyle Mouloud Feraoun (1913-1962). Les diverses situations d’entre-deux et de croisement de deux territorialités à la fois que l’on trouve abondantes dans cette œuvre créent un lieu ou un mi-lieu fructueux pour l’exploitation de la question de l’hybridité et du métissage dans ses sens multiples et dans la géo-temporalité spécifique qu’est la Kabylie sous la colonisation française en Algérie dans les années cinquante. Des enjeux concernant l’identité hybride, les mi-lieux qu’ils occupent ainsi que les négociations identitaires se déploient à travers un éventail de figures, permettant de mettre en relief cet espace problématique à mi-chemin ou simultanément entre deux voire plusieurs discours ou dans un tiers espace où elles convergent. On constate aussi que l’idéologie dominante qui tient la place du centre par rapport aux différences identitaires se trouvant à la frontière liminale s’apparente non seulement à l’hégémonie imposée par le colonisateur mais aussi et grandement à l’essentialisme basé sur les traditions inébranlables et sur la pureté des races et des cultures, ce qui fait des Chemins qui montent une œuvre consciente et critique, étant aussi bien un témoignage qu’un avertissement de la situation de la Kabylie arrivant au carrefour des traditions et de l’ouverture.

L'immigration d'expression française et la mutation identitaire des organismes de la communauté acadienne et francophone de l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard
Authors: Lavoie Carlo
Published: December 2018

L’immigration d’expression française est un phénomène relativement nouveau dans la communauté acadienne et francophone de l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard. L’implantation d’un Réseau en intégration francophone en 2012 se veut la pierre angulaire d’une stratégie d’accueil et d’intégration des nouveaux arrivants d’expression française dans cette petite communauté d’environ 5000 personnes. Les organismes communautaires membres de ce réseau voient leur identité fondamentale transformée afin d’alimenter un nouveau discours sur la diversité qui se veut rassembleur et qui contribue à jeter les bases d’une nouvelle francophonie insulaire.
Nous veillerons ensemble sur le sommeil des hommes de Françoise Lalande : poétique et poétisation du corps
Authors: Lahmar Mariem
Published: December 2018

Le corps dans Nous veillerons ensemble sur le sommeil des hommes est un leitmotiv frappant : il y est à la fois moyen de plaisir et d’expression. L’auteure en fait son premier instrument afin d’écrire la souffrance de ses personnages. Corps et douleur se conjuguent pour esquisser les destins croisés de trois protagonistes en éternelle quête de soi. La lecture de l’ouvrage nous fait voyager dans le monde du non-dit et où le corps est l’actant principal. Les protagonistes prennent conscience de leur entourage de et par un corps entièrement assumé, qui s’exprime en toute liberté et indépendance. Dans cet article, nous nous proposons d’analyser cette représentation à travers des exemples précis de l’œuvre et de (dé)montrer le rôle du corps comme moyen de libération et de découverte du bonheur.
D’outre-monde : du fantôme de la perte vers une mémoire de l’oubli, ou le moteur caché de la relation à l’autre
Authors: Behbahani Soraya
Published: December 2018

En situation postcoloniale, la critique des rouages de l’aliénation coloniale débouche sur une remise en cause radicale de la notion d’identité territoriale, elle qui, invariablement, clive, et hiérarchise, entre même et autre, comme entre centre et périphéries. Comme l’entend Edouard Glissant, il s’agit désormais de s’affranchir de l’arbitraire de telles frontières stéréotypiques, et stéréotopiques, pour inaugurer une relation au monde nouvelle : celle d’une créolisation de l’espace – géographique, linguistique, identitaire – qui consacre l’avènement de la poétique de la Relation. Mais ce vœu n’est-il pas utopique ? A ne vouloir voir dans l’expérience du décentrement que le moteur magnifié de l’ouverture à l’autre, les tenants de la créolisation se font soudain singulièrement oublieux de l’épreuve en quoi elle consiste, et que, pourtant, le colonialisme a porté à son acmé. Or, comme le rappelle Roger Toumson (1998), la réalité antillaise est toujours aux prises avec la symptomatique du désillusionnement identitaire auquel elle fut contrainte. Toutes aussi utopiques y sont donc l’« identité-racine » décriée que l’« identité-rhizome » prônée. Pire : dans sa volonté de rejet de la première, la célébration de la seconde risque fort de reconduire le déni de la perte subie, et de conforter ainsi l’effet de pouvoir du modèle qu’il s’agissait de renverser. Or, s’il est un auteur qui ait rendu sensible, et pensable, cette perte, c’est Césaire – lui dont la Négritude signifiait, précisément, la filiation rompue à l’Afrique. A travers La tragédie du roi Christophe, nous verrons donc comment l’auteur nous invite à en faire la catharsis, et ce non pour l’exorciser, mais, au contraire, pour lui donner son lieu de mémoire. Une « mémoire de l’oubli » (Agamben) seule susceptible de sauver la relation à l’autre du fantôme de la perte qui la hante à son insu, pour s’en faire le moteur – mais cette fois explicite.
Quelles langues de la francophonie pour la traduction de l’hétérolinguisme dans les nouvelles d’Olive Senior ?
Authors: Montout Marie-Annick
Published: December 2018

Donner la parole à ceux qui n’ont pas la plume pour écrire, tel est le projet esthétique d’Olive Senior. Dans ses nouvelles, le langage est ce qui permet aux personnages de parler d’eux-mêmes, de se libérer, de se trouver, de créer leur propre identité en usant de toutes les variétés de langues à leur répertoire, parfois à l’intérieur d’une même phrase. Le texte écrit est le lieu d’expression de leur vive voix, celle par laquelle se dit leur personnalité et leur culture. C’est pourquoi la langue retenue pour la traduction doit former un nœud indissoluble entre le fond et la forme. Prenant appui sur des extraits de quatre nouvelles d’Olive Senior récemment parues en traduction, le présent article se propose de montrer que l’exportation des nouvelles d’Olive Senior ne peut pas s’envisager sans une exportation de la culture jamaïcaine par la langue.
La traduction italienne de Les Soleils des indépendances d’Ahmadou Kourouma : le cas du traitement des diatopismes

L'article présente l'analyse effectuée sur la traduction italienne de Les Soleils des indépendances de Ahmadou Kourouma. Les éléments péritextuels qui influencent la reception du roman dans la culture cible et une analyse lexicographique sont pris en compte. L'analyse linguistique se concentre sur les diatopismes dans le français de la Côte-d'Ivoire; ces lexèmes, qui représentent la spécificité de cette variété de français et le reflet de la situation socio-linguistique sur l'œuvre littéraire, ont été classifiés suivant des méthodes lexicographiques: leur caractère régional a été vérifié à l’aide des dictionnaires du français de la Côte-d'Ivoire et de l'Afrique noire; ils ont été classés suivant le tableau conçu par Cl. Poirier pour les diatopismes du Canada dans Le régionalisme lexical, analyse remanié par A. Thibault. Suit une analyse commentée des techniques utilisées pour traduire ces diatopismes dans la version italienne du roman. Le traducteur emploie des techniques différentes, en particulier des emprunts, des calques, des adaptations graphiques, des notes et des ajouts; aucune référence à la francophonie et ses particularités régionales n’a été faite. L'exotisme de l'œuvre n’est mis en évidence dans la culture cible que par le cadre péritextuel.
Déconstruction et renouveau esthétique: une exégèse narratologique de l’hybride et de la traduction dans Les Soleils des indépendances et Solibo Magnifique
Authors: Niang Mouhamédoul A.
Published: December 2018

Les Soleils des indépendances (1968) et Solibo Magnifique (1988) manifestent deux modèles narratologiques au service d’une esthétique textuelle hybridée. Ces œuvres consacrent une intériorité narrative hétérogène offerte à un public cible divers dans un cadre de renouveau littéraire soutenu par la traduction. Ainsi, Kourouma bat en brèche le fétichisme linguistique du français par une hybridation textuelle et narrative esthétisée à travers une pratique de la traduction reposant sur une synergie entre cette langue et l’imaginaire culturel malinké. L’auteur emploie le comparatif “comme”, traducteur de l’hybride et pont de passage entre deux imaginaires, à des fins d’harmonisation culturelle et linguistique. En outre, l’analogie constitue aussi un pilier important de l’hybridation dans Les Soleils des indépendances, et elle introduit le double, français/malinké et homme/animal, respectivement en termes d’harmonie interculturelle, de bâtardise identitaire et de déchéance sociale. Solibo Magnifique de Chamoiseau oppose quant à lui la savane, espace de la parole créole, au commissariat, lieu de l’officialité, de l’unilatéral, et de l’écrit. On y retrouve deux conceptions différentes du nom. L’intérêt de ce roman créoliste réside, pour notre propos, dans sa représentation d’actes officiels de reformulation linguistique et sémantique ou traduction qui permet de passer d’un unilatéralisme discursif parfois opaque à un état d’ouverture favorable à l’expression de l’imaginaire créole dans sa pluralité. Ce transfert éclairant de culture en langue accouche d’un récit hybridé.
Personal and Social Determinants of Aggressive and Dangerous Driving
Authors: Haje Bruno E. , Symbaluk Diane G.
Published: December 2018

Aggressive and dangerous driving compromises personal and public safety. The purpose of the present study was to identify common forms of aggressive and dangerous driving and to determine contributing factors. Participants included 298 university students who completed an online survey measuring aggressive and dangerous driving and a range of possible causes. Results showed that verbal aggression was most common followed by using one’s vehicle to express anger. Aggressive driving was associated with permissive attitudes towards driving aggression, vehicle preferences, and a disposition towards anger. Texting and eating while driving were the most common types of dangerous driving. The strongest predictors of dangerous driving were commuting distance, permissive attitudes towards distracted driving, vehicle preferences, and vehicle type. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Work-Family Balance, Participation in Family Work and Parental Self-Efficacy in Chilean Workers
Authors: Jiménez Figueroa Andrés , Gómez Urrutia Verónica , Palomo-Vélez Gonzalo
Published: December 2018

The article analyzes differences regarding work-family balance, participation in family work, and parental self-efficacy in workers (N=300) in Chile according to their sex and their status as income providers. Three instruments (Survey Work-Home Interaction-Nijmegen, Questionnaire of Participation in Family Work, and the Parental Evaluation Scale) were applied to workers from public and private organizations. Our results show that participation in family work is positively related to work-family balance, while the latter, in turn, is positively associated with parental self-efficacy. Furthermore, sex and being the main income provider in the household shows differential effects in both participation in family work and perception of parental self-efficacy. These results, we conclude, suggest the persistence of some elements of traditional gender patterns. This underlines the need to examine organizational policies from a gender perspective and to analyze the impact of public policy on organizational practices.
Monsanto: Planting Local Seeds, Sprouting Global Effects
Authors: Prodor Julie
Published: December 2018

This paper examines the activities of Monsanto, specifically its role in the seed industry and the implications for the autonomy of farmers and food security. The study situates the role of Monsanto in the broader context of globalization. The paper argues that today's globalized world has led to the creation of multinational monopolies, like Monsanto, who are tightening their grasp on the world seed market, striving for market supremacy to the detriment of farmers' rights, food security in particular and the global environment at large.
Buying and Selling Emotions: A Theoretical Analysis
Authors: Fischer David
Published: December 2018

This paper seeks to understand the relationship between the buying and selling of emotions in the retail and customer service industries of a capitalist economy. Symbolic interactionist theories were used to analyze the commodification and selling of emotions from the perspective of the producer and the employee. Psychoanalytic theories are employed to analyze consumer’s unconscious desires for buying the newly commodified emotions. The unconscious cognitive processes and accompanying physiological manifestations occurring during the interaction between buyer and seller for the commodified emotion were subsequently looked at in detail. In the end, a conceptual theoretical framework was created which provides a means for interpreting internal, unconscious desire for type and level of a particular emotion based upon observable interactions.
Complexity, Complexity Reduction, and ‘Methodological Borrowing’ in Educational Inquiry
Authors: Gough Noel
Published: December 2018

Complex systems are open, recursive, organic, nonlinear and emergent. Reconceptualizing curriculum, teaching and learning in complexivist terms foregrounds the unpredictable and generative qualities of educational processes, and invites educators to value that which is unexpected and/or beyond their control. Nevertheless, concepts associated with simple systems persist in contemporary discourses of educational inquiry, and continue to inform practices of complexity reduction through which researchers and other practitioners seek predictability and control. In this essay, I examine a number of theoretical, practical and historical dimensions of complexity reduction in education and their implications for inquiry and action. I focus in particular on the ways in which some education researchers have reduced the complexity of the objects of their inquiries through ‘methodological borrowings’ from other research endeavors, such as borrowing a version of ‘evidence-based’ research from medical science, and borrowing the ‘triangulation’ metaphor from surveying.
Turbulence, Perturbance, and Educational Change
Authors: Beabout Brian R.
Published: December 2018

While scholarship on educational change has long accepted that disruptions to the status quo are an essential part of the change process, disruption has never been more central to planned change than it is in the current political context in the USA, where legislation has mandated school closure, reconstitution, and turnaround as required remedies for schools failing to produce annual student achievement gains required by government. We are also unfortunately hampered by the imprecise language that surrounds complexity- based theories of educational change. Words such as perturbance, turbulence, and disruption all have gained currency lately, but meanings are unclear and overlapping. This essay seeks to lend some clarity to the debate by defining turbulence as the perception of forces in an organizational environment with the potential to disrupt current modes of operation. This is distinguished from perturbance which is defined as the social process of actors coming together to adjust organizational practice to fit with the changing environmental context. The case is argued that sensible reformers ought to be fostering perturbance while minimizing the harmful consequences of excessive turbulence.
Complexity Thinking and Methodology: The Potential of 'Complex Case Study' for Educational Research
Authors: Hetherington Lindsay
Published: December 2018

Complexity theories have in common perspectives that challenge linear methodologies and views of causality. In educational research, relatively little has been written explicitly exploring their implications for educational research methodology in general and case study in particular. In this paper, I offer a rationale for case study as a research approach that embodies complexity, and I explore the implications of a ‘complexity thinking’ stance for the conduct of case study research that distinguishes it from other approaches. A complexity theoretical framework rooted in the key concepts of emergence and complexity reduction, blended using a both/and logic, is used to develop the argument that case study enables the researcher to balance the open-ended, non-linear sensitivities of complexity thinking with the reduction in complexity, inherent in making methodological choices. The potential of this approach is illustrated using examples drawn from a complexity theoretical research study into curriculum change.
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly? The Dynamic Interplay Between Educational Practice, Policy and Research
Authors: Van Geert Paul , Steenbeek Henderien
Published: December 2018

The notion of complexity — as in “education is a complex system” — has two different meanings. On the one hand, there is the epistemic connotation, with “Complex” meaning “difficult to understand, hard to control”. On the other hand, complex has a technical meaning, referring to systems composed of many interacting components, the interactions of which lead to self organization and emergence. For agents, participating in a complex system such as education, it is important that they can reduce the epistemic complexity of the system, in order to allow them to understand the system, to accomplish their goals and to evaluate the results of their activities. We argue that understanding, accomplishing and evaluation requires the creation of simplex systems, which are praxis-based forms of representing complexity. Agents participating in the complex system may have different kinds of simplex systems governing their understanding and praxis. In this article, we focus on three communities of agents in education — educators, researchers and policymakers — and discuss characteristic features of their simplex systems. In particular, we focus on the simplex system of educational researchers, and we discuss interactions — including conflicts or incompatibilities — between their simplex systems and those of educators and policymakers. By making some of the underlying features of the educational researchers’ simplex systems more explicit – including the underlying notion of causality and the use of variability as a source of knowledge — we hope to contribute to clarifying some of the hidden conflicts between simplex systems of the communities participating in the complex system of education.

Abstract
A complexity approach to investigating the effectiveness of an intervention for lower grade teachers on teaching science
Authors: Wetzels Annemie , Steenbeek Henderien , Van Geert Paul
Published: December 2018

This article describes the effectiveness and sustainability of teacher professional development interventions from a complexity view point as well as a more ‘standard’ viewpoint. The first aim of this study is to give a theoretical overview of effective aspects of interventions regarding teachers’ professionalizing using recent literature. The second aim is to re-interpret effectiveness and effectiveness studies using a complexity approach. The third aim is to empirically illustrate a complexity approach to the effectiveness of interventions using a multiple case studyWe have described intervention specific aspects, teacher specific aspects, context specific aspects and implementation specific aspects and have shown in the cases that during an intervention these aspects intertwine and act as a complex dynamic system.The complexity approach to interventions has implications for future empirical research as well as for the design of interventions. In future research, results of small scale and large scale research should be combined, in order to obtain a better insight in all relevant aspects and their effect on teachers’ behavior. Research ought to concentrate on the effects that all contextual aspects have intertwiningly in order to design more effective interventions and with better implementation processes.

Published: December 2018

Our purpose is to provide an exploratory statistical representation of initial teacher education as a complex system comprised of dynamic influential elements. More precisely, we reveal what the system looks like for differently-positioned teacher education stakeholders based on our framework for gathering, statistically analyzing, and graphically representing the results of a unique exercise wherein the participants literally mapped the system as they perceived it. Through an iterative series of inter-related studies employing cluster analysis and multidimensional scaling procedures, we demonstrate how initial teacher education may be represented as a complex system comprised of interactive agents and attributes whose perceived relationships are a function of nested stakeholder-dependent simplex systems. Furthermore, we illustrate how certain propositions of complexity theory, such as boundaries, heterogeneity, multidimensionality and emergence, may be investigated and represented quantitatively.
