Published: December 2020

La finalidad de este estudio etnográfico es conocer los rasgos característicos dentro de los matrimonios interculturales o mixtos en una época y lugar en especial: el Marruecos del Protectorado (1912-1956).Se trata de la historia de vida de María, española nacida en Torrox (localidad española en la provincia de Málaga) de 93 años y casada con un marroquí. Además de toda la bibliografía consultada para la elaboración del marco teórico de la presente investigación, hemos contado con grabaciones, fotografías y cartas de la informante, que han sido facilitadas por su hija. Destacar que la entrevista no ha podido ser realizada en persona a causa de la declaración del estado de alarma en el país durante el mes de marzo debido a la crisis sanitaria producida por el COVID-19.De las distintas grabaciones en los que la entrevistada cuenta su vida en diferentes ciudades marroquíes, se recogen fragmentos de su vida muy duros y complicados, a la vez que reflejan la fuerza y determinación de María ante las adversidades y prohibiciones de las instituciones del Protectorado ante los matrimonios mixtos. Casarse con un marroquí, era algo prohibido y mal visto por la sociedad de la época pero aun así, María consiguió ser feliz junto a su marido e hijos.

Looking Through a Veil
Authors: Ilić Angela
Published: December 2020

Identity construction processes in Southeastern Europe and particularly in Serbia have resulted in distinct ideals of identities that are perceived to be incompatible with each other. Such understanding makes it extremely difficult to overcome ethnic, linguistic or religious/confessional boundaries. Almost any interconfessional or interreligious contact is by its nature interethnic and vice versa. Interreligious dialogue therefore faces great challenges but is not impossible to achieve. In the article, highlights and failed attempts from the history of interreligious dialogue initiatives in Serbia and Yugoslavia are presented and perspectives for the future are explored.
Unwissen – Annäherungen an ein doppelgesichtiges Phänomen oder wem nutzt und wem schadet es?
Authors: Hopfner Johanna
Published: December 2020

Ignorance – Approaches to a two-faced Phenomenon or who Benefits and who does it Harm?

Obviously, ignorance is a tricky business. The article discusses selected aspects relating to »education in science and practice« (Hopfner/Stöckl). In the first step, it illuminates the difficult-to-grasp picture puzzle of ignorance and exemplifies the different types from harmless ignorance to ideologically disguised ignorance. In the next step, some stations are pointed out where the causes and effects of ignorance in the practical, significant area of ​​education can be reconstructed. Finally, the social position of educational science, its specialist policy and possible contribution to counter-enlightenment must be reflected with regard to the spread of ignorance.

The Strategy of Deconstruction and its Unintended Effects. On the Deconstructive Way of Dealing with Difference in Pedagogical Settings

The pedagogical dealing with difference has been questioned for its unintended effects on the reproduction of power relations. This criticism has been expressed mainly from a deconstructive point of view. Nevertheless, the strategy of deconstruction has not yet been questioned for unintended effects itself. The article discusses three aspects where unintended effects of these strategy can at least possibly emerge: (1) a deterministic view of the binary hierarchy, (2) a narrow understanding of transformation as proliferation and (3) a one-sided understanding of reproduction.

Between Latin and Church Slavonic: Literary Beginnings in the Vernacular and the Question of National Narrative in the Literary History of Bohemia, Croatia, and Poland
Authors:   University of Pennsylvania, Verkholantsev Julia
Published: December 2020

The paper is a refl ection on the differences between the development of Czech, Croatian, and Polish literatures. Despite the jurisdiction of the Western Church, the Cyrillo-Methodian mission created conditions for the adoption of Slavonic writ-ing in Bohemia and Croatia. While in Croatia Slavonic writing gained traction, the Slavic-speaking community of Bohemia chose to adopt Latin as the sole literary language. The literary beginnings in Poland, which had most likely not been affect-ed by the Cyrillo-Methodian mission, represents yet another scenario. The study of different conditions leading to the adop-tion of a language of literacy and textual community presents an opportunity to ponder how we study and describe a literary process in general, as well as how we understand the concept of a “national literature” and whether this concept should apply only to literature in the vernacular.

Is a hymnographer-compiler a writer or a reader. Service for All Saints Who shone in the Russian land as a typical service of the 16th century
Authors:   Vienna University, Legkikh Victoria
Published: December 2020

The feast of all the saints who shone in the Russian land was established after the Macariuscouncils of the 1547 and 1549, and already in the 1550s. Gregory, a monk of the Savior-Euthymius monastery in Suzdal, composed a service. The service is created according to chant models mainly taken from services for Russian saints, using both direct borrowing a hymn and adaptation of the hymn and creating a new one according to the model. We can say that this service shows a typical way of compiling a hymnography of the 16th–17th centuries. The report analyzes the sources and methods of creating a service compiled by Gregory.

Text critic characteristic of the Church Slavonic translation of the Gospel text in Slavonic-Romanian early printed Tetraevangelion from 1551–1553
Authors:   Christian Theological Academy in Warsaw, Ostapczuk Jerzy
Published: December 2020

Text critical study of the early printed Cyrillic Tetraevangelions made it possible to divide these Gospel books into several textological groups. One of them, to which eleven Middle-Bulgarian and Serbian editions from XVIth c. belong, was also divided into two textual subgroups: Gospel of hieromonk Macarie (1512) and Gospel of deacon Coresi (1562). The goal of presentation is text critic analysis of the Church-Slavonic translation of the Gospel preserved in Slavonic-Romanian Early printed Tetraevangelion issued 1551–53 by Philip the Moldavian in Brașov. In the study, based on the three fragments from the Gos-pel of Matthew (3,17 – 8,21,13,44 – 15,11 and 26,1 – 27,61), all early printed Cyrillic Tetraevangelions issued Middle-Bulgarian, Serbian and East-Slavonic redactions from XVIthc. will be explored.
Epistolary genre: «Holy letter» in cross-cultural context
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Plotnikova Anna
Published: December 2020

Published letters of Burgenland’s Croats living in Chunovo on the border of Slovakia and Hungary are under consideration from the point of view of the features of the epistolary genre of the early XXth century. The cross-cultural context dictates the use of such lexemes and turns, which were possible only in this particular Slavic region. Against this background, the so-called “heavenly letter” stands out, which is a letter-amulet written on the eve of the First World War by a soldier and sent to his loved ones. The genre features of this letter are very different from the entire corre-spondence, which allows us to consider this text in a num-ber of so-called “Holy letters”.

Four Centuries of One Metalinguistic Description
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Shoulga Maria
Published: December 2020

The gender distinction between plural adjectival paradigms of обоихъ–обѣихъ is traced back to the 18th century Russian grammars: V. E. Adodurov’s, M. V. Lomonosov’s, A. A. Barsov’s. The data of the Russian Nation-al Corpus show the interchangeability of the forms of обоихъ – обѣихъin the 18th century texts. Differentiation by gender in the Russian plural paradigms was transferred rom the Church Slavonic dual paradigms of обою – обѣю. The metalinguistic construct of grammars of the 18th centuries is preserved in the normative grammars of the mod-ern Russian language, despite the fact that the gender dif-ferentiation of adjectival forms corresponds neither to the system nor to the usus

COVID-19 Can Exacerbate Pattern Hair Loss and Trigger Telogen Effluvium – The Role of Proteoglycan Replacement Therapy with Nourkrin® in Clinical Treatment of COVID-19 Associated Hair Loss
Authors: Gadzhigoroeva Aida , Guzman-Sanchez Daniela , Firooz Alireza , Moravvej Hamideh , Espinoza Nelly , Romanova Yulia , Suárez Hugo Vicente Martínez , Simoes Marcela Mattos , Potekaev Nikolay N.
Published: December 2020

The unfolding coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has increased the incidence of several dermatological disorders, including diffuse hair loss. Observational studies revealed an escalated incidence of pattern hair loss (PHL) and telogen effluvium (TE) in COVID-19 patients. Psychological stress, systemic inflammation and oxidative stress are potential culprits. Reduced anagenic expression of proteoglycans is a potential mediating mechanism that connects hair loss to critical health conditions such as COVID-19. Proinflammatory cytokines and stress hormones negatively affect the normal metabolism of proteoglycans, which are known regulators of the hair growth cycle. Anagen shortening and hair miniaturisation are thus conceivable consequences of a resultant hypofunctional follicular matrix. In this review, we discuss the association between COVID-19 and diffuse hair loss and elucidate the position of proteoglycan replacement therapy (PRT) using Nourkrin® with Marilex® in addressing the dysmetabolism of proteoglycans in COVID-19. PRT with Nourkrin® is a hair loss treatment with ‘anti-inflammatory’ and ‘hair growth cycle normalising’ effects. This treatment is shown to improve the histological severity of inflammation, suppress several proinflammatory cytokines and expand regulatory T-cell lineages in-vivo. Accordingly, Nourkrin® has potential in treating new-onset or aggravated PHL in COVID-19 survivors. In addition, bioactive proteoglycans in Marilex®, e.g., decorin and versican, exhibit anagen inducing and catagen suppressing properties, which help to reverse anagen shortening in stress-induced TE. Further clinical investigation of PRT in COVID-19 survivors through controlled trials and real-world studies is warranted. In conclusion, Nourkrin® can be considered as a safe treatment to prevent and treat COVID-19 related PHL and TE.

The UK needs an open data portal dedicated to coastal flood and erosion hazard risk and resilience

Published: December 2020

In the UK, coastal flooding and erosion are two of the primary climate-related hazards to communities, businesses, and infrastructure. To better address the ramifications of those hazards, now and into the future, the UK needs to transform its scattered, fragmented coastal data resources into a systematic, integrated, quality-controlled, openly accessible data portal. Such a portal would support analyses of coastal risk and resilience by hosting, in addition to data layers for coastal flooding and erosion, a diverse array of spatial datasets for building footprints, infrastructure networks, land use, population, and various socio-economic measures and indicators derived from survey and census data. Rather than prescribe user engagement, the portal would facilitate novel combinations of spatial data layers in order to yield scientifically, societally, and economically beneficial insights into UK coastal systems.
Comparison of heuristic methods for achieving minimum-cost capacitated networks with a new metaheuristic based on node valency
Authors: YEATES CHRISTOPHER , Schmidt-Hattenberger Cornelia , Weinzierl Wolfgang , Bruhn David
Published: December 2020

Designing low-cost networks is an essential step in planning linked infrastructure. For the case of capacitated trees, such as oil or gas pipeline networks, the cost is usually a function of both pipeline thickness (i.e. capacity) and pipeline length. Minimizing cost becomes particularly difficult as network topology itself dictates local flow material balances, rendering the optimization space non-linear. The combinatorial nature of potential trees requires the use of graph optimization heuristics to achieve good solutions in reasonable time. In this work we perform a comparison of known literature network optimization heuristics and metaheuristics, and propose novel algorithms, including a metaheuristic based on transferring edges of high valency nodes. Our metaheuristic achieves performance above similar algorithms studied, especially for larger graphs, usually producing a significantly higher proportion of optimal solutions, while remaining in line with time-complexity of algorithms found in the literature. Data points for graph node positions and capacities are first randomly generated, and secondly obtained from the German emissions trading CO2 source registry. Driven by the increasing necessity to find applications and storage for industry CO2 emissions, finding minimum-cost networks increases the business case for large-scale CO2 transportation pipeline infrastructure.
Poor sleep quality is associated with greater negative consequences for cognitive control function and psychological health after mild traumatic brain injury than after orthopedic injury

Published: December 2020

Objective: To test the hypothesis that poor sleep quality has a stronger negative effect on cognitive control function and psychological health after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) than after orthopedic injury. Method: Patients with mTBI (n=197) and trauma controls with orthopedic injuries (n=82) were included in this prospective longitudinal study. The participants (age 16-60) completed three computerized neurocognitive tests assessing response speed and accuracy at 2 weeks and 3 months after injury, as well as questionnaires and interviews assessing sleep quality and psychological distress at 2 weeks, 3 months and 12 months after injury. Separate linear mixed models (LMMs) for each of the outcome measures (response speed, response accuracy, psychological distress) were performed. Results: We observed a significant interaction effect between poor sleep quality and group (mTBI vs trauma controls) in the response speed (p=0.028) and psychological distress (p=0.001) models, driven by a greater negative impact of poor sleep quality on response speed and psychological distress in the mTBI group. We found no such interaction effect for response accuracy (p=0.825), and poor sleep quality was associated with worse accuracy to a similar extent for both groups. Conclusions: Our findings show that poor sleep quality has a more negative impact on cognitive control function and psychological outcome in patients with mTBI, compared to trauma controls. This indicates an increased vulnerability to poor sleep quality in patients who have suffered a mTBI.
Are we less social in noisy environments? No effect of noise on implicit Theory of Mind performance
Authors: Kulke Louisa , rakoczy hannes
Published: December 2020

Theory of Mind (ToM), the ability to attribute beliefs and desires to others, has been a recent focus of replication research. While some researchers found an implicit form of ToM, which could be measured with different tasks, including anticipatory looking measures, other researchers could not replicate these finding. The testing conditions may play a role for the success of replications. Therefore, the current study aimed to investigate the effect of a noisy testing environment on results in an anticipatory looking false belief task. The original findings could only be partially replicated, leaving room for alternative explanations. Environmental noise did not significantly affect gaze patterns. Therefore, previous failed replications are unlikely to be related to different levels in environmental noise.
Yes, (most) men know what rape is: A mixed-methods investigation into college men’s definitions of rape
Authors: Siegel Jaclyn Amanda , Anderson RaeAnn Elizabeth , Silver Kristin E. , Mitchell Tara L.
Published: December 2020

Sexual violence, including rape, is a pervasive problem on college campuses in the United States. Although men perpetrate the majority of sexual violence, men’s attitudes, experiences, and perspec-tives are not typically included in research on rape and sexual violence. We addressed this empirical gap through our mixed-methods analysis of 365 young men’s definitions of the term “rape.” Our analysis via consensual qualitative research revealed that men’s definitions fit into nine primary do-mains: lack of consent, taken advantage of, sex, sexual activity, unwanted, gender/sex-specific, harm to victim, relationship, and emotional response, as well as a miscellaneous domain. Further, using chi square tests of independence, we compared responses from men with and without a history of sexual violence perpetration. Findings showed that the definitions generated by men with a history of perpetration were less likely to include non-penetrative sexual violence and were more likely to use gender/sex-specific language in their definitions of rape. We conclude that most young men have a generally accurate understanding of rape, though perpetrators’ understandings may be somewhat narrower and more limited than those without a history of perpetration. We end with recommendations for refocusing sexual education curricula to better aid in the prevention of sexual violence perpetration. Specifically, given that (most) men know what rape is, educators should emphasize the cultural and situational factors that make rape more likely so all people can reduce the risk of sexual violence and take proactive precautions to prevent it.
Self-Interest Bias in the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Cross-Cultural Comparison between the United States and China
Authors: Dong Mengchen , Spadaro Giuliana , Yuan Shuai , Song Yue , Ye Zi , Ren Xin
Published: December 2020

In the global crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic, many countries attempt to enforce new social norms to prevent the further spread of the coronavirus. A key to the success of these measures is the individual adherence to norms that are collectively beneficial to contain the spread of the pandemic. However, individuals’ self-interest bias (i.e., the prevalent tendency to license own but not others’ self-serving acts or norm violations) can pose a challenge to the success of such measures. The current research examines COVID-19-related self-interest bias from a cross-cultural perspective. Two studies (N = 1,558) sampled from the United States and China consistently revealed that participants from the United States evaluated their own self-serving acts (exploiting test kits in Study 1; social gathering and sneezing without covering the mouth in public in Study 2) as more acceptable than identical deeds of others, while such self-interest bias did not emerge among Chinese participants. Cultural underpinnings of independent versus interdependent self-construal may influence the extent to which individuals apply self-interest bias to justifications of their own self-serving behaviors during the pandemic.

This study focuses on the response of elderly people on the old age allowance and its impact on socio-economic issues. The allowance is the cash provided by the government of Nepal as a social security allowance to the people of age 70 years and above. Both qualitative and quantitative data has been used in this study from complete enumeration. The information was collected from three municipalities: Sundar Bazar Municipality, Maddhye Nepal Municipality, and Rainas Municipality of Lamjung District. A face-to-face interview method was applied to collect information regarding social and economic aspects from all 51 elderlies of Kumal respondents who received allowance. Chi-square test was applied to find out the factors associated with satisfaction of elderly people. Most of the respondents felt that the allowance is negligible and administrative difficulties like error in date of birth in citizenship, delay in receiving, inaccessibility to bank due to ageing, etc. in receiving the allowance. People who were satisfied with this allowance reported that it was a privilege from the government and they can use this money on their own. This finding is based on a single ethnic group of small area and cannot be generalized to whole population but explored some idea how the allowance is perceived in Nepal. The allowance establishes the right of older people and essential for poor people to fulfil their daily needs. The government should take some initiatives for better management of the allowance with other processes rather than cash distribution and take more initiation for very poor older people who have no other income sources.
The Politics of Race and Beauty: A Study of Alternative Aesthetics in Adichie’s Americanah
Authors: Bhandari Nagendra Bahadur
Published: December 2020

This article discusses the social pressure upon the black immigrants to adopt the white standard of beauty and their resistance to such racist pressures, which is depicted in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Americanah. The discourses and practices of beauty have been colonized by the racist attitude of white supremacy in the US. This cultural colonization has exerted the social pressure upon the black immigrants to regulate their bodily features to comply with the white standard of the beauty for social acceptability and professional growth. They suffer physically and emotionally in this process. Ifemelus, the protagonist of Americanah, gradually develops her critical consciousness after going through emotional and physical suffering while straightening her hair. Her resistance process is analyzed in the critical frame of David Jeferess transformative resistance model. She resists the white standard of beauty by proposing an alternative form of aesthetics on the basis of bodily features of the black in her blog posts. She explores her origin, uses power of media, urges for collective resistance, and glamorizes the features of the black in order to propose an alternative form of aesthetics.

Kim jestem Bohumila Hrabala, czyli pytanie o tożsamość w samym sercu Europy
Authors: Brodacka Magdalena
Published: December 2020

Artykuł jest próbą wpisania utworu Hrabala w autobiograficzny nurt jego prozy. Jest to jednocześnie dekonstrukcja legendy biograficznej pisarza poprzez ponowne nazwanie i zdefiniowanie zabiegów językowych oraz metafor przez niego stosowanych. Główna problematyka artykułu oscyluje wokół zagadnień melancholii, której przyczyny leżą zarówno w doświadczeniach i osobowości Hrabala, jak i w zewnętrznym kontekście społeczno‑politycznym charakterystycznym dla Europy Środkowej drugiej połowy XX wieku. Całość rozważań oświetla filozofia szyfrów transcendencji Karla Jaspersa.
Poeci i ich zwierzęta
Authors: Juchniewicz Andrzej
Published: December 2020

Studia Anity Jarzyny zebrane w książce Post-koiné. Studia o nieantropocentrycznych językach (poetyckich) lokują się w polu „przeżywających” obecnie rozkwit studiów nad zwierzętami i wypracowują spójną koncepcję czytania poezji z zastosowaniem najnowszych metodologii. Pomysł Jarzyny, która poddała mikrologicznej analizie wiersze kilkudziesięciu poetek i poetów, oparty jest na śledzeniu intencjonalnych rekonfiguracji utartych wyrażeń i dowartościowaniu tropów, ponieważ, jak przekonuje Donna Haraway, to one powodują, że język „odchyla się od właściwego kursu i skręca”. Uwaga ta odnosi się nie tylko do twórczości Joanny Mueller i Justyny Bargielskiej, które przechwytują i unieważniają inwektywy łowieckie (pomiot, pokot), lecz również poetów dekonstruujących funkcjonujące w polszczyźnie oksymorony (casus Ryszarda Krynickiego), a także aluzyjnie nawiązujących do kanonicznych formuł (np. Adorna), których znaczenie ulega rozszerzeniu (casus wiersza Życie ptaków i ssaków po Kronholda). Nie jest to jedyna strategia, na jaką decyduje się Jarzyna. Zarysowuje też komplementarną narrację o zwierzęcych biografiach (np. Łajki), których nagłaśnianie wpisuje się w projekt poszerzania ludzkiej historii o nieludzkich aktorów, autorstwa Érica Barataya. Francuski historyk postuluje, że zwierzę nie może być nadal białą plamą historii, dlatego należy wypracować koncepcję czytania dokumentów i świadectw, która pozwoliłaby na zrekonstruowanie losu zwierząt. Ich sprawczość jest w świetle nowych badań niepodważalna, co podkreśla również Jarzyna. Jej projekt poddaje krytyce wiele stereotypów i zapowiada wypracowywanie nowego sposobu mówienia i myślenia o zwierzętach. Pierwszym etapem rewizji starego porządku ma być rewolucja języka i oczyszczenie go z inwektyw o podłożu animalnym i porównań, które zawsze pozostają krzywdzące dla zwierząt. W ocenie autora tekstu monografia Jarzyny wyróżnia się na tle innych publikacji sposobem prowadzenia wywodu i narracją, która wykracza poza kostyczny styl książek akademickich.
Contemporary approaches to correction of cognitive impairment in endogenous depression
Authors: Oleichik I. V. , Shishkovskaia T. I. , Baranov P. A.
Published: December 2020

Cognitive dysfunction is one of the basic symptoms of endogenous depression, gaining much of the researchers’ interest lately. It is observed at the initial stage, at the peak intensity of depressive symptoms and even after their reduction, which leads to the persistence of residual depressive state. Cognitive impairment during the depressive episode can be detected by objective methods (clinical and neuropsychological), and their subjective importance is being revealed by standardized questionnaires. Depressed patients show lower results in executive functions, working memory, reaction speed, verbal learning, immediate and delayed recall subtests of neuropsychological batteries. There are few pharmacological agents (mostly antidepressants) with well-proven procognitive activity in depression. Besides, some new pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches for treatment of cognitive impairment in depression have appeared lately and are described in literature as promising.
How Neoliberalism Reinvented Democracy
Authors: Zamora Vargas Daniel
Published: December 2020

From its very inception, neoliberalism has been a reluctant companion to democracy. Economists such as Friedrich von Hayek and Ludwig von Mises, for example, viewed with anxiety the achievement of universal suffrage and were convinced that market mechanisms had to be protected from popular involvement. However, neoliberalism was not only a program aimed at “undoing” the demos but also a way to invest it with new meaning, to “redo the demos.” And it’s this reinvestment of the marketplace with a democratic legitimacy that guides this special issue of The Tocqueville Review with contributions of Daniel Luban, Niklas Olsen, Jacob Jensen, Jenny Andersson, Stephen Sawyer and William Novak.

Роботу присвячено питанням розподіленої обробки транзакцій при проведенні аналізу великих обсягів даних з метою пошуку асоціативних правил. На основі відомих алгоритмів глибинного аналізу даних для пошуку частих предметних наборів AIS та Apriori було визначено можливі варіанти паралелізації, які позбавлені необхідності ітераційного сканування бази даних та великого споживання пам'яті. Досліджено можливість перенесення обчислень на різні платформи, які підтримують паралельну обробку даних. В якості обчислювальних платформ було обрано MapReduce – потужну базу для обробки великих, розподілених наборів даних на кластері Hadoop, а також програмний інструмент для обробки надзвичайно великої кількості даних Apache Spark. Проведено порівняльний аналіз швидкодії розглянутих методів, отримано рекомендації щодо ефективного використання паралельних обчислювальних платформ, запропоновано модифікації алгоритмів пошуку асоціативних правил. В якості основних завдань, реалізованих в роботі, слід визначити дослідження сучасних засобів розподіленої обробки структурованих і не структурованих даних, розгортання тестового кластера в хмарному сервісі, розробку скриптів для автоматизації розгортання кластера, проведення модифікацій розподілених алгоритмів з метою адаптації під необхідні фреймворки розподілених обчислень, отримання показників швидкодії обробки даних в послідовному і розподіленому режимах з застосуванням Hadoop MapReduce. та Apache Spark, проведення порівняльного аналізу результатів тестових вимірів швидкодії, отримання та обґрунтування залежності між кількістю оброблюваних даних, і часом, витраченим на обробку, оптимізацію розподілених алгоритмів пошуку асоціативних правил при обробці великих обсягів транзакційних даних, отримання показників швидкодії розподіленої обробки існуючими програмними засобами.
