The rolC gene of agrobacteria: towards the understanding of its functions
Authors: Khafizova G. V. , Matveeva T. V.
Published: October 2021

Agrobacterium rhizogenesConn is a soil bacterium, which can transform plants by inserting a plasmid fragment into the plant genome. This fragment contains a “root locus”: four genes that cause root overgrowth of the transformed plant, the so-called “hairy root syndrome”. The most studied gene of the root locus isrolC. For more than 30 years of research on this gene, data have been obtained on its expression, protein localization and putative functions of the protein as well as on its effect on plant morphology and biochemistry. TherolCtransformation leads to multiple morphological effects, most common among which are dwarfism, bushiness, and a change in the shape of the leaf blade. Such specific plant reactions are associated with changes in hormone balance under the influence ofrolC. The levels of auxins, cytokinins, and abscisic acid do change in transformed plants, but no regularities have been revealed. Also, the signaling pathways ofrolCaffecting the hormonal system of plants are not established. Morphogenetic effects can occur in varying degrees depending on the promoter under which therolCworks. A constitutive promoter usually leads to a more pronounced effect when compared to a gene that operates under a native promoter. Secondary plant metabolism is also affected byrolC. The synthesis of various metabolites is amplified in transformants, and, in contrast to morphological effects, this biochemical effect does not depend on the promoter. Some secondary metabolites are associated with the plant defense system; thus,rolCis able to indirectly influence this aspect of plant physiology. This review summarizes the results of therolCgene studies in plants. The authors formulate the main hypotheses regarding the mechanisms of the gene in order to promote our understanding of its function in plants.
Položaj oštećenika u adhezijskom postupku
Authors: Galiot Mijo , Brizić Bahun Vanesa
Published: October 2021

Rad se bavi položajem oštećenika u postupku koji se pokreće prijedlogom za ostvarivanje imovinskopravnog zahtjeva u sklopu kaznenog postupka. Imovinskopravni zahtjev, kao sporedni predmet građanske naravi koji je pridružen kaznenom postupku, naziva se adhezijskim postupkom i predstavlja specifičnu mješavinu kaznenog i građanskog prava. Vođenje toga postupka izraz je načela ekonomičnosti, ali i nastojanja da se izbjegne dvostruko suđenje u istoj stvari. U prvom se redu govori o pojmu i pravnoj prirodi instituta te se u nastavku obrađuju neke njegove bitne značajke i to posebno pitanje subjekata postupka i pretpostavke za njegovo vođenje, u odnosu na procesni položaj oštećenika koji bi i s obzirom na zakonodavno rješenje i praksu hrvatskih sudova trebao biti primjereniji. Zbog toga se autori zalažu da se pri noveliranju kaznenog procesnog zakonodavstva više pažnje posveti oštećeniku i imovinskopravnom zahtjevu koji bi trebalo sustavnije urediti, pritom vodeći računa o njegovim posebnostima. U tom smislu se ukazuje na pojedina sporna pitanja te se predlažu moguća rješenja. Ističe se i da je položaj oštećenika potrebno poboljšati kako bi imao sva prava kao da je svoj zahtjev postavio u parnici.

U radu se daje prikaz odredbi Zakona o zemljišnim knjigama koje uređuju dostavu pismena u navedenom postupku. Ukazuje se na posebnost zemljišnoknjižnoga postupka jer se provedba upisa obavlja prije pravomoćnosti rješenja o upisu pa i prije njegove dostave strankama. Pažnja je posvećena dostavi odluka (rješenje) u zemljišnoknjižnom postupku, dostavi poziva i ostalih pismena te na manjkavosti Zakona u tom dijelu. Upozoreno je na novine koje donosi elektronička dostava te posebno na pravne posljedice uredne/neuredne dostave. Posebna je pažnja dana dostavi izvan Republike Hrvatske i to s naglaskom na dostavu u države članice Europske unije, ali i na dostavu u ostale države, posebno susjedne. S obzirom na aktualnost Brexita upozoreno je i na koji način će se vršiti dostava u Ujedinjeno Kraljevstvo.

Okvir determiniranja prava na rad za vrijeme epidemije
Authors: Učur Marinko Đ.
Published: October 2021

Dok traje pandemija bolesti COVID-19, u ostvarivanju, ponajprije individualnih radnih odnosa (jer su kolektivni radni odnosi „na čekanju“) javljaju se brojna pitanja na koja nema odgovora (osobito u sudskoj praksi). Najčešće se obrazloženje traži u činjenici da je u pitanju pandemija i nemoći (pa i nespremnosti) svijeta rada, ali i nefl eksibilnosti autonomne regulative radnih odnosa i nespremnosti poslodavaca u svakodnevnom odgovoru na zahtjeve krize.
U posebnim okolnostima ne smiju biti dovedena u pitanje primjena načela suvremenoga, demokratskoga radnog prava (uz načelo zaštite osobe na radu, načelo in favorem laboratoris, načelo zaštite prava iz radnog odnosa, sve uz sveprisutno načelo ustavnosti i zakonitosti), ali i načelo pacta sunt servanda (načelo obveznog prava) u ugovornim radnim odnosima i dr. Pokušava se pronaći odgovor na sporna pitanja koja u praksi (primjeni) tijekom epidemije, najčešće utvrđuju sadržaj radnih odnosa: „intervencija“ u ugovor o radu, autonomna regulativa radnih odnosa, radno vrijeme, plaće i naknade, odmori i dopusti, zaštita zdravlja i sigurnosti na radu, primjena načela najpovoljnijega prava za radnika i druga. Nužno je vrlo restriktivno primjenjivati svako ograničenje prava na radu, koje, inače može, u skladu s Ustavom države, biti uređeno samo zakonom, pa i mjere tijekom epidemije samo u okvirima zakona i Ustava.
In Search of a Cultural Code
Authors: Velikanova Olga
Published: October 2021

From the plethora of big and small achievements that the author celebrates in the book, my essay addresses such subjects as the continuity of cultural creativity in the 19th and 20th centuries, children’s literature, the sociology of reading, and the place of goodness in literature and life under Stalinism – all within the span of the 20th century. Sharing with the author my admiration of accomplishments of Russian and Soviet culture, I try here to historicize the themes and expand slightly on some of them, like perceptions of the cultural products.
Balancing the Books and Staging Operas under Duress: Bolshoi Theater Management, Wartime Economy and State Sponsorship in 1941–1945
Authors: Golovlev Alexander
Published: October 2021

The article examines the financial history of the Bolshoi within USSR’s mobilized wartime cultural industry as an example of a cultural institution highly placed in the Stalinist establishment and symbolic canon. It explores the income-outcome flows, personnel management, the impact of evacuation, notably on Bolshoi’s hard capital, and relations with supervising authorities. The theater’s perceived importance within the war effort conditioned unshakable financial support, a non-market protective environment, and lenient administrative treatment, contrasting with logistical and personnel challenges which the house only partly mastered. This relative stability stands in contrast with the absence of strong leadership, as the director’s position was kept vacant in stark difference to most European opera theaters. The shock of 1941–1942 was absorbed with internal adjustment measures and external subventions, and the Bolshoi’s budgets swelled towards the end of the war, indicating inflation and the house’s “most-favored-opera status”. The stable and conservative management still showed shortcomings, which the state chose not to punish. The opera’s symbolic and prestige capital trumped quantitative efficiency, creating a haven in the war economy.

A rule violation account for the reading of negated general disjunctions
Authors: Wang Moyun
Published: October 2021

In the psychology of propositional reasoning and psycholinguistics, few previous studies have investigated how people read the negation of a general disjunction referring to a definite narrow-scope set of objects (for a set with limited objects, it is not true that xs are p or q). We develop some alternative accounts for the negation. The original and revised mental model theory make contradictory predictions for the negation. The probabilistic violation account interprets it as the probabilistic violation of the general disjunction by introducing nonnegligible exceptions. A rule violation account based on the default rule reading of generics in psycholinguistics interprets it as the rule violation of the general disjunction by introducing exceptions. Four experiments investigated the reading of negated general disjunctions referring to definite narrow-scope sets in possibility and truth judgment tasks. Participants’ possibility and truth judgments provide convergent evidence that a negated general disjunction is consistent with only sets containing ¬p¬q cases regardless of whether other cases are present or not. This implies that people tend to understand the general disjunction as the deterministic universal rule, and interpret the negated general disjunction as the qualitative violation of the rule by introducing exceptions. These findings favor the rule violation account over the other accounts. The present overall response pattern is consistent with the default universal rule interpretation of generic sentences referring to definite narrow-scope sets predicted by the relativity principle in psycholinguistics that reading generics as probabilistic or deterministic is relative, depending on background knowledge or contexts. The relative reading of general disjunctions is beyond existing simple deterministic and probabilistic accounts of compound propositions in propositional reasoning.

Foraminiferal Analysis of Holocene Sea Level Rise within the Trinity River Incised Paleo-Valley, Offshore Galveston Bay, Texas
Authors: Standring Patricia , Lowery Christopher , Burstein Jacob , Swartz John , GOFF JOHN , Gulick Sean
Published: October 2021

Sea-level is expected to continue to rise in the next century, and as society prepares to deal with this hazard it is critically important to understand how coastal systems will respond, especially in regions with rapid rates of coastal erosion and relative sea-level rise like the Gulf of Mexico Texas coast. Tide gauge records in Galveston Bay, Texas, indicate that local sea level rise rates are more than twice the global average, raising important questions about the long-term stability of the barrier islands protecting the bay and how the estuary and coastline will respond to sea-level rise. However, tide gauge records only go back to the beginning of the last century, and longer records are needed to provide insight into dynamic coastal response to sea-level fluctuations. Here, we combine geophysical (chirp sub-bottom profiler) surveys and sediment cores (providing sedimentological and micropaleontological data constrained by radiocarbon dating) to characterize paleoenvironmental change in the Holocene estuary system offshore modern Galveston Bay over the last ~10 kyr; with the first 4 kyr of this time span undergoing a period of rapid sea level rise more than twice the modern rate. Our foraminiferal analysis provides ecological context on the stability of these paleoenvironments and the timing of coastal change over the last ~10 kyr. We provide a model of Holocene shoreline change differing from existing interpretations of rapid landward shifts with asymmetric coastal geometry to one composed of more gradual transitions matching modern coastal geometry and argue for an overall stable paleoestuarine environment throughout the middle Holocene (~6.9 ka – 8.8 ka). Subsequent shoreline shifts occurred after global sea level rise slowed below modern rates, indicating hydroclimate impacts on sediment flux likely had a greater influence on the earlier stability of the estuarine system and later shoreline retreat than rates of sea-level rise.
Are You for Real? Perceptions of Authenticity are Not Accurate and Systematically Biased
Authors: Bailey Erica , Levy Aharon
Published: October 2021

Can people accurately perceive who is authentic? People believe they can tell who is authentic, and report that authenticity is an important attribute in others (N=369). However, when we directly tested the accuracy of perceived authenticity, we found that people were not accurate: there was no significant correlation between other- and self-rated authenticity in two cohorts of students in randomly-assigned teams (4,042 self-other observations). We found that perceived authenticity was biased in two ways: a) other-rated authenticity showed a positivity bias compared to self-ratings, and b) other-rated authenticity was biased by the rater’s own authenticity. In Study 3, we also investigated authenticity meta-perceptions; although people expect their authenticity to be accurately perceived by others, their meta-perceptions did not correlate with other-rated authenticity. That is, the beliefs about the visibility of one’s authenticity are similarly not accurate. Overall, we found no evidence that people can accurately identify who is authentic.
Computational mechanisms underlying social evaluation learning and associations with depressive symptoms during adolescence
Authors: Bone Jessica Katherine , Pike Alexandra Claire , Lewis Gemma , Lewis Glyn , Blakemore Sarah-Jayne , Roiser Jonathan Paul
Published: October 2021

There is a sharp increase in depression in adolescence, but why this occurs is not well understood. We investigated how adolescents learn about social evaluation and whether learning is associated with depressive symptoms. In a cross-sectional school-based study, 598 adolescents (aged 11-15 years) completed a social evaluation learning task and the short Mood and Feelings Questionnaire. We developed and validated reinforcement learning models, formalising the processes hypothesised to underlie learning about social evaluation. Adolescents started the learning task with a positive expectation that they and others would be liked, and this positive bias was larger for the self than others. Expectations about the self were more resistant to feedback than expectations about others. Only initial expectations were associated with depressive symptoms; adolescents whose expectations were less positive had more severe symptoms. Consistent with cognitive theories, prior beliefs about social evaluation may be a risk factor for depressive symptoms.
Who Falls in Love With a Narcissist? Testing Women’s Romantic Attraction Towards Fictional Male Characters
Authors: Vos Lisa M. W. , Frowijn Iris , van Scheppingen Manon A.
Published: October 2021

The present research examined whether women’s narcissistic traits, thrill-seeking, impulsivity, and attachment style are associated with their level of attraction towards narcissistic men. Two trait dimensions of narcissism were distinguished: admiration (i.e., promoting oneself to gain admiration) and rivalry (i.e., devaluing others to protect one’s self-view). Participants (195 heterosexual women, Mage = 20.78, SD = 2.40) were asked to rate their level of attraction towards 25 pictures of fictional male characters who score relatively high or low on narcissism. Using multilevel modelling, we found that women were more attracted to men with high levels of narcissistic admiration (vs. low), and less attracted towards men with high scores on narcissistic rivalry (vs. low). We found no evidence that women who scored high on narcissism were more attracted to narcissistic men. Response surface analyses revealed that women who scored high on thrill-seeking (vs. low) were more attracted to narcissistic admiration, and to a lesser extent to narcissistic rivalry. Additionally, we discovered that women who scored high on impulsivity or avoidant attachment (vs. low) were (to a small extent) more attracted to narcissistic rivalry. Identifying women who are attracted to narcissistic men can help to implement and improve prevention or intervention programs related to narcissism in romantic relationships.
On logical inference over brains, behaviour, and artificial neural networks
Authors: Guest Olivia , Martin Andrea E.
Published: October 2021

In the cognitive, computational, and neuro- sciences, practitioners often reason about what computational models represent or learn, as well as what algorithm is instantiated. The putative goal of such reasoning is to generalize claims about the model in question, to claims about the mind and brain, and the neurocognitive capacities of those systems. Such inference is often based on a model's performance on a task, and whether that performance approximates human behavior or brain activity. Here we demonstrate how such argumentation problematizes the relationship between models and their targets; we place emphasis on artificial neural networks (ANNs), though any theory-brain relationship that falls into the same schema of reasoning is at risk. In this paper, we model inferences from ANNs to brains and back within a formal framework — metatheoretical calculus — in order to initiate a dialogue on both how models are broadly understood and used, and on how to best formally characterise them and their functions. To these ends, we express claims from the published record about models' successes and failures in first-order logic. Our proposed formalisation describes the decision-making processes enacted by scientists to adjudicate over theories. We demonstrate that formalising the argumentation in the literature can uncover potential deep issues about how theory is related to phenomena. We discuss what this means broadly for research in cognitive science, neuroscience, and psychology; what it means for models when they lose the ability to mediate between theory and data in a meaningful way; and what this means for the metatheoretical calculus our fields deploy when performing high-level scientific inference.

Materialization of Love in Morrison’s Love: A Marxist Perspective
Authors: Shrivastwa Bimal Kishore
Published: October 2021

This article attempts to explore how human beings are controlled by the material values in the society governed by the capitalistic regime in Toni Morrison’s novel, Love where money and matter overshadows other moral and social customs. Fascination towards economic gain is the natural inclination of the human beings since all the capitalistic desires and provisions are generally dealt with money. The overall purpose of the study is to show how Toni Morrison’s dominant characters in Love, Cosey, Heed, L and Christine are much obsessed with material success in order to capture the sordid nature of materialization of human life in the commercial world. The research methodology, used to survey the unquenched material desire of human beings such as Mr. Cosey and Christine and their degradation for it, is Marxism. Christine is ready to do everything to be a capitalistic modern. The principal finding is that in the name of love, pre-menstruated girl is made to marry an old man. She is turned into a commodity item. People are seeking mammoth pleasure but they are spiritually barren, which shows money and matter over taking the realm of love and spirituality.
वक्रोक्ति सिद्धान्त र शैलीविज्ञानको तुलनात्मक अध्ययन [A Comparative Study of Irony Theory and Stylistics]
Authors: गौतम अङ्गदमणि
Published: October 2021

वक्रोक्ति सिद्धान्त पूर्वीय साहित्य सिद्धान्तमध्ये एक समन्वयवादी एवं वस्तुनिष्ठ सिद्धान्त हो । यसका प्रवर्तक आचार्य कुन्तक हुन् र विस्तारक पनि उनी मात्र देखिन्छन् । शैलीविज्ञानको उदय सस्युरका नवीन भाषिक चिन्तनका माध्यमबाट पश्चिमी जगत्मा भएको र यसको विस्तार विभिन्न देशमा विविध सम्प्रदाय एवं विद्वान्बाट भएको देखिन्छ । वक्रोक्ति संस्कृत भाषाका सन्दर्भमा जन्मेको र शैलीविज्ञान पश्चिमी भाषाका सन्दर्भमा जन्मेको सिद्धान्त भए पनि वस्तुगत विश्लेषणका सन्दर्भमा यी दुवै एक अर्काबिच निकट सिद्धान्तका रूपमा देखिन्छन्  । दुवैले काव्यकृतिलाई मूल आधार मानेर त्यसको वस्तुनिष्ठ विश्लेषणमा विश्वास गर्ने हुनाले दुवै सिद्धान्तको उद्भवका बिच लगभग नौ सय वर्षको अन्तर रहँदारहँदै पनि सिर्जना र सर्जकलाई हेर्ने अवधारणा तथा कृति विश्लेषणगत अवधारणामा भने करिब एकरूपता देखा पर्दछ । वक्रोक्ति सिद्धान्तमा वक्रताको तात्पर्य समस्त कविकर्मकौशल, काव्यसौन्दर्य तथा लोकोत्तर सर्जन हो भत्रे मान्दै काव्यकृतिलाई सर्जकका आत्मभावको भाषिक रूपान्तरणका रूपमा स्वीकार गरिने भएकाले मूलतः वर्णविन्यासवक्रता, पदवक्रता, वाक्यवक्रता, प्रकरणवक्रता र प्रबन्धवक्रताका आधारमा विश्लेषण गरी कृतिगत सौन्दर्य पर्गेल्ने काम गर्दछ । त्यसै गरी  शैलीविज्ञानले पनि साहित्यिक अभिव्यक्तिलाई भाषिक कला र कुनै पनि काव्यकृतिलार्ई भाषिक प्रतीक मानेर  मूलतः समानान्तरता, चयन, विचलन, अप्रस्तुत योजना आदिका आधारमा कृतिको विश्लेषण गरी निष्कर्षमा पुग्ने काम गर्दछ । तसर्थ, वक्रोक्ति सिद्धान्त र शैलीविज्ञानका बिच उत्पत्तिगत भौगोलिक परिवेश र  प्रारम्भविन्दुको समयमा समेत ठुलो अन्तराल भएर पनि  पनि यी दुवै सिद्धान्तका अबधारणामा साम्यता रहेकाले तुलनीय पनि देखिन्छन् । [The theory of irony is one of the coherent and objective theories of Eastern literature. Its promoter is Acharya Kuntak and he seems to be the only expander. The rise of stylistics seems to have taken place in the Western world through Sasuke's innovative linguistic thinking and its spread from various denominations and scholars in different countries. Although irony is a theory born in the context of Sanskrit and stylistics is born in the context of Western languages, in terms of objective analysis, the two are seen as closely related to each other.]

Skąd zło? Paradoksy rewolucji na Ukrainie. O Wspomnieniach i Dziennikach Jewhena Czykałenki
Authors: Sobol Eugeniusz
Published: October 2021

In this article author focused on the Diaries and Memoirs of Yevhen Chykalenko. He has tried to reconstruct the process of creating these books and compare them. The author creatively developed the comparative analysis of Memoirs and Diaries, because the first book is characterized by officiality, memory idyll, positive aspects of Ukraine. The second one brings bitterness and a critical judgment of his own nation. To emphasize this comparison, the author used the concept of Malgorzata Czermińska’s autobiographical triangle. Reflecting on the passivity of the Ukrainian writer during the Ukrainian People’s Republic, he came to the conclusion that it resulted from the philosophy of „not opposing evil with violence” by Leo Tolstoy. Between him and Chykalenko the author found more converging parallels. The author then dealt with the political myths of Chykalenko, among which he distinguished his fascination with Germany. If in Memoirs we deal with an idyllic and positive image of Ukraine and Ukrainians, catastrophic visions prevail in the dairies. It shows the fall of values, as well as the triumph of barbarism that prevailed after the revolution of 1917. Memoirs and Diaries by Chykalenko are very important for the study of the history of Ukrainian periodicals, we learn about the realities of the press, problems with censorship, editorial work, repressions.
Revealing the Rationality of Myth: Contribution of Bronislaw Malinowski
Authors: Siedin Oleksandr
Published: October 2021

The article is focused on the intellectual significance of the theory of myth developed by prominent Polish anthropologist Bronislaw Malinowski within his anthropological approach known as functionalism. The author argues that Malinowski already in the first half of the 20th century anticipated the main trend within the later studies on myth. Like many influential myth-theorists of the next generations, Malinowski recognized the elements of rationality within mythical thinking. Both his emphasis on the integrity of culture as well as his opposition to diffusionism and evolutionism resonate with the perspective of structuralists in the second half of the 20th century. According to Malinowski, myth and science as the parts of culture serve mainly for the basic biological needs of the human body. The more elaborated vision of the functionality of myth has been proposed later in the philosophy of mythology of German poststructuralist Hans Blumenberg. Despite that, Malinowski’s attention to the function of myth reflected and formed the general tendency of contemporary science of myth. This tendency presupposes the “de-archaization” of myth in contrast to the progressivist vision of myth as entirely “irrational” or “paralogical” thinking. The author also analyses how the intellectual heritage of Malinowski is used in the recent studies made by contemporary Polish and Ukrainian scholars.

Zabuti imena: Vasylʹ Tkachuk ochyma rodychiv y odnoselʹchan (na osnovi aktualʹnykh intervʺyu)
Authors: Horniatko-Shumylovych Anna
Published: October 2021

Vasyl Tkachuk (1916-1944) is a forgotten talent of the Ukrainian literature of the 1930s. Not so long ago this outstanding short-story writer was completely unknown to a wide range of readers. Today his memory is being laboriously restored. His artistic profile, personal features, and his surrounding’s attitude to the author may be described to readers thanks to the recent interviews with his close relatives and the residents of his home village and region. Memories of the people who met Vasyl Tkachuk or remember him from their relatives’ stories prove the writer’s exceptional nature and his writing career, which was stopped by his death.
A Host Country of Immigrants That Does Not Know Itself
Authors: Schnapper Dominique
Published: October 2021

France’s relationship with immigrants cannot be understood unless two essential aspects of its history are drawn together: the low birthrate of the French population over the past two centuries and the traditions of a nation-state propelled by a universalizing political project. The conjuncture of these two characteristics constitutes the character of the French stance toward immigrants.
“Critical Post-Judaism”; or, Reinventing a Yiddish Sensibility in a Postmodern Age
Authors: Isenberg Noah
Published: October 2021

Within months of each other, two articles on Yiddish language and culture appeared in the public press during the summer of 1996. First, in the pages of The New Republic, Harvard's chair of Yiddish Studies. Ruth Wisse, addressed the question of a Yiddish revival in a skeptical, even pessimistic, piece titled “Shul Daze: Is Yiddish Back from the Dead?” Wisse contends that Yiddish no longer has any validity as a vital cultural idiom, and that as it currently exists, in its secular incarnation, it can only be viewed as an object of academic inquiry. She writes of misplaced hopes among various journalists, who call on her for expert confirmation that we are now witnessing a renaissance of this otherwise near-extinct language. Such journalists, explains Wisse, often mention the National Yiddish Book Center in Massachusetts, the Yiddish film retrospectives currently en vogue at urban arts houses, and the international boom in Klezmer music. “I am tempted to tell my callers what they want to hear,” remarks Wisse, “yes, because my students can now study Sholem Aleichem in the original and write Yiddish letters to their grandparents—make that their bobbes and zeydes—a Yiddish renaissance is in the offing. But the reference to my academic post reminds me that I'm not paid to lie” (Wisse 17). Yet perhaps it isn’t really a lie that Wisse is being asked to tell after all. At least, that is what the Forward’s cultural editor Jonathan Rosen would like us to believe. In his “A Dead Language, Yiddish Lives,” published in The New York Times Magazine, Rosen calls attention to the fact that Yiddish, though still largely considered a ghostly remnant of the past, a leftover from the tum-of-thc-century migrations of Jews from Eastern Europe, is now experiencing a new life among younger Jews in the American diaspora, in particular among those searching for a source of identification beyond the Holocaust and the establishment of the Jewish state. Rosen cites renowned playwright Tony Kushner, who expresses equal disappointment with the state of Israel and melting pot America and, in comparison, views Yiddish culture as “less butch and macho” than Israeli culture; together with other Jews of his generation, Kushner claims that through Yiddish he is “reawakening to Diaspora culture” (Rosen 26). Rosen observes that a growing segment of gay Jews (the Yiddish equivalent to the Act Up slogan, “shvaygen=toyt”—also the title of a Klezmatics record album—adorns a t-shirt in the article's accompanying illustration) have taken to a redefined Yiddishkeit. In recent years, Rosen suggests, diversity has replaced assimilation as an American goal, and in this climate Yiddish may have the chance to flourish again. For Rosen, Yiddish is the language which best represents what he calls “the paradox of the American diaspora: the wish to feel different and at home” (27).
Diasporas with a Difference: Jewish and Georgian Teenagers’ Ethnic Identity in the Russian Federation
Authors: Markowitz Fran
Published: October 2021

Ever since the late 1960s, when Fredrik Barth urged us to move away from the idea that ethnicity is constituted by “cultural stufT and to focus instead on the boundary that demarcates groups, anthropologists (and their perhaps more radical half-siblings in cultural studies) have cast into doubt the primordial or essentialist nature of ethnic groups, to say nothing of ethnic identity. Earlier studies focused on the groups themselves—how they display and are constrained by their identity as immigrants, minorities, ethnics, “persistent peoples,” and even “marginal men” (sic)—while more recent investigations have taken up the “borderlands” where groups meet, confront each other (Rosaldo; Rouse), and become zones of hybridized cultural production (Bhabha). In a related vein, ethnicity is also explored as one of many possible intersections of power and culture, and ethnic identity becomes a crazy-quilt of namings and “being-called” (Probyn 25). Indeed, Stuart Hall informs us that “identities are never unified, and in late modem times, increasingly fragmented and fractured, never singular but multiply constructed across different, often intersecting and antagonistic discourses, practices and positions” (4, emphasis added).
The Politics of “Italians Abroad”: Nation, Diaspora, and New Geographies of Identity
Authors: Fortier Anne-Marie
Published: October 2021

Italian people's relationship to national identity is complicated by a history of mass emigration that reached important proportions in the years following Italian Unification. There are approximately 4.5 million Italian emigrants living outside Italy, and an estimated 25 million emigrated between 1876 and 1965 (Vasta). When descendants of emigrants are included in the surveys, estimates reach up to 65 million people of “Italian origin” living around the world.
On Global English and the Transmutation of Postcolonial Studies into “Literature in English”
Authors: Raley Rita
Published: October 2021

What does it signify to speak of a World Literature in English? In what ways might diaspora studies and transnationalism be linked to the contemporary phenomenon of global English, with a mode of comprehending the world that holds English at its center? What can diaspora studies and transnationalism learn from the “language question” frequently raised in discussions of both cultural imperialism and postcolonial writing? What can they learn from the question of globalism now so ubiquitous in contemporary criticism? How does the Literature in English concept relate, on the one hand, to Edouard Glissant's outline of the “liberation” that results from compromising major languages with Creoles (250), and, on the other, to Fredric Jameson's implicit yearning for a philosophical universal linguistic standard not circumvented by linguistic heteroglossia (16-7)? These questions outline the conceptual terrain of this article, in which I read the discursive transmutation of the discipline of Postcolonial Studies into “Literature in English” as both symptom and cause of the emerging visibility of global English as a recognizable disciplinary configuration situated on the line between contemporary culture and the academy. Over the course of this article, I chart this discursive transmutation and its necessary preconditions—the critical investiture in the “global,” the renewed attention to dialects, the abstraction of the “postcolonial”—as a way of articulating profound reservations about the “new universalisms,” of which Literature in English is a primary instance.
The “Sojourner Hypothesis” Revisited
Authors: Yang Philip Q.
Published: October 2021

The concept of “The Sojourner” is a very important and influential one in the study of early Chinese immigration to America and of Chinese Americans. The sojourner concept originated from Paul Siu’s widely-cited article “The Sojourner,” published in American Journal of Sociology in 1952, which was largely extracted from his dissertation, entitled The Chinese Laundryman and completed at the University of Chicago in 1953. Siu defined the sojourner as an immigrant who “clings to the culture of his own group” and who “is unwilling to organize himself as a permanent resident in the country of his sojourn” (“Sojourner” 34). Like the marginal man, the sojourner is also a deviant; but, unlike the marginal man, the sojourner does not “seek status in the society ofthe dominant group” (Siu, Chinese Laundryman 294). He “spends many years of his lifetime in a foreign country without being assimilated by it” (299).
Analisis Kritis terhadap Spirit Dekonstruksi dalam Kajian Hermeneutika Kristen Kontemporer
Authors: Simanjuntak Ferry , Belay Yosep
Published: October 2021

This paper aims to analyze the impact of Derrida's theory of deconstruction in relation to the application of contemporary Christian hermeneutics as well as an attempt at hermeneutical repositioning. The methodological approach used in this paper is descriptive qualitative with instruments of literature study, comparison and textual analysis. Concretely, critical analysis is carried out in stages of deconstruction theory, various phenomena of contemporary Christian hermeneutics, then presents the idea of Christian hermeneutics as a comparative model and discourse criticism. Meanwhile, the body of the writing is divided into three parts according to the analysis pattern. First, it specifically examines Derrida's theory of deconstruction. Second, it is an analysis of several forms of hermeneutic phenomena and discourse of Christian theology which are currently developing. Third, reviewing the Christian hermeneutic discourse from the evangelical perspective in an effort to reposition, criticize, and test discourse on the contemporary worldview. Through this research, distortions were found in hermeneutic studies and contemporary Christian discourse with several forms of deconstruction approaches. The three explicit patterns used are the hermeneutic application of binary negation to conservative theological discourse, the explicit emphasis on the textual eisegesis model and the post-structuralism approach to interpretation..

Post-Sekularisme, Demokrasi, dan Peran Publik Agama
Authors: Tan Petrus
Published: October 2021

This article tries to elaborate the relationship between post-secularism, democracy and the public role of religion. The facts of religion’s global revival show the failure of secularization thesis about the disappearance of religion from the public sphere. In political philosophy and social sciences, this phenomenon is called post-secularism. In this article, post-secularism is understood as a phenomenon of religion’s revival in the public sphere or the legitimacy for public role of religion. This understanding is especially necessary  to encourage religion in addressing political, social and humanitarian issues. However, this understanding does not ignore the fact that religion often becomes a scandal and terror for democracy. Therefore, in this article, post-secularism also needs another understanding, namely as "awareness of a reciprocal learning process" between religion and secularity, religious and secular citizens, faith and reason, religious doctrine and public reason. The last model of post-secularism is urgently needed in Indonesia.

Key words: Post-secularism, secularization, religion, democracy.
The gender gap on the Spanish Wikipedia: Listening to the voices of women editors
Authors: Ferran-Ferrer Núria , Castellanos-Pineda Patricia , Minguillón Julià , Meneses Julio
Published: October 2021

Wikipedia is one of the most widely used information sources in the world. Although one of the guiding pillars of this digital platform is ensuring access to the diversity of human knowledge from a neutral point of view, there is a clear and persistent gender bias in terms of content about or written by women. Through semi-structured interviews with current and former women editors, our research offers a closer look at the different factors that influence editing practices on the Spanish Wikipedia: the educational and social contexts that prompt women to start or stop editing; their perceptions of the treatment of gender equality in the encyclopedia; and their feelings about taking part in the creation of content in an environment where they find themselves in a minority. Self-organized events known as edit-a-thons (in Spanish, Wikiquedadas), where women meet to discuss and share editing practices, have emerged as self-inclusion strategies to enable more women to enter, remain, and be recognized in this male-dominated editing environment. Smaller Wikipedia communities are also perceived as more inclusive environments. Lack of digital competences or difficulty using the platform do not appear to be aspects that negatively influence the participation of women in the editing process, though time spent on unpaid care work does seem to be a critical factor.
