Lignin-Glyoxal Bio-Adhesive Based on Lignin from Sugarcane Bagasse: Characterization and Application
Authors: Arrusli Qonita , Sitorus Berlian , Syahbanu Intan
Published: February 2025

This study explores the potential of lignin extracted from sugarcane bagasse as an eco-friendly alternative to petroleum-derived phenol-formaldehyde (PF) adhesives. PF adhesives are widely used in plywood manufacturing, but their reliance on non-renewable resources and the toxicity of phenol and formaldehyde pose sustainability and health concerns. The researchers aimed to develop a lignin-glyoxal (LG) bio-adhesive that could match the performance of commercial PF adhesives. Lignin was isolated through alkali treatment, yielding 17.46 ± 3.61 %. FT-IR spectrophotometry and GPC characterization confirmed typical lignin functional groups, with Mn and Mw values of 1068.0 and 1196.0 g/mol, respectively. UV-Vis spectrophotometry revealed active sites with a total phenolic hydroxyl content of 0.35 ± 0.01 mmol/g. The optimal LG bio-adhesive composition was 1:2, achieving a tensile strength of 0.45 ± 0.06 N/mm², comparable to PF standards. While the LG 1:2 bio-adhesive exhibited suitable physicochemical properties and passed water resistance tests, it failed wet tensile strength tests, indicating its potential for interior wood product applications. This research contributes to the development of sustainable industrial applications utilizing lignin-based bio-adhesives.
HIGHLIGHTS

Sustainable use of sugarcane bagasse: Successfully isolated lignin from sugarcane bagasse, demonstrating a valuable use of agricultural waste for producing bio-

Facial recognition systems often face challenges in scenarios with low-light conditions and occlusions, where critical facial features are obscured or poorly illuminated. This paper investigates the effectiveness of various preprocessing techniques, such as histogram equalization, gamma correction, and noise reduction, in enhancing facial recognition performance under such challenging conditions. Visual comparisons of images before and after preprocessing are included to demonstrate tangible improvements. Additionally, the computational efficiency and resource trade-offs of combined preprocessing techniques are analyzed, providing insights into their practical applicability. By integrating these techniques with facial recognition models, significant improvements in accuracy and feature extraction capabilities can be achieved. The methodology outlines the applied techniques and the experimental setup used for comparative analysis. Results indicate that certain preprocessing strategies, when used in combination, yield superior performance in handling difficult conditions. This study provides insights into optimizing preprocessing pipelines for robust facial recognition.

Published: February 2025

This paper addresses the ethical complexities surrounding the use of personal images on social media platforms, particularly Facebook. The increasing reliance on user-generated content highlights critical gaps in user awareness of the legal and ethical ramifications of their online interactions. This research aims to illuminate these issues and propose practical improvements to address the shortcomings in user protection. The literature predominantly focuses on marketing strategies or data privacy but rarely integrates ethical considerations with legal structures governing personal data. This study fills that void by examining Facebook’s Terms of Service and Data Policy, emphasizing their implications for user rights, particularly regarding personal images. The methodology combines a thorough literature review with an analytical examination of Facebook’s legal documentation. The study investigates user agreements, the transparency of image usage rights, and the communication of these rights to users. Quantitative insights were supplemented with qualitative analysis to gauge user comprehension and the ethical presentation of terms. The findings reveal inconsistencies and ambiguities in Facebook’s policies, particularly concerning the loss of user control over shared content and the revenue-generating use of personal images without user compensation. The study underscores a lack of transparency in explaining these mechanisms, creating ethical and practical concerns. By proposing enhanced clarity and user-friendly disclosures in Facebook’s terms, this research contributes to the evolving discourse on ethical marketing and user data governance.

Published: February 2025

This study is based on analyzing travel decisions, influencers and the impact exerted on tourist travel decision making among Peruvian university students. The research was characterized by having a quantitative approach. A survey was applied to 385 university students in Peru and it had 13 questions sections, divided in 2 parts, considering the demographic profile and general questions with a 5-point Likert-type scale.

The results revealed that participants believe that social networks, especially TikTok and Instagram, influence their travel choices. The study also identified the three most impactful influencers and highlighted valued characteristics: authenticity, useful travel information, and showcasing affordable options for a good experience. Influencers who develop interesting and entertaining content that persuades and inspires followers are highly appreciated. At the same time, it was showed that influencers focus on cultural and traditional aspects, food, travel budget, safety and accessibility. Ideas such as archaeological experiences, raising awareness about endangered animals, developing tourism promotion apps, inclusive tourism, entertainment venues, internet connections, souvenir shops, hotel or Airbnb information, adventure travel, off-the-beaten-path places, local businesses and interactive experiences with locals are suggested to be considered in the influencer’s content to take better travelling decision making processes.
Examining Behavioral Deviations in Economic Forecasts: A Study of the Eurozone and CEEC
Authors: Elena BEJENARU Cristina
Published: February 2025

Drawing on behavioral insights and heuristics, this study demonstrates the ways in which more realistic decision-making diverges from the classic homo economicus model. Employing the New-Keynesian behavioral model proposed by De Grauwe (2012, 2019) and parameters from Jang and Sacht (2016), the analysis reveals a superior fit for observed fluctuations in output and inflation across the Eurozone and Central and Eastern European economies compared to models assuming strictly rational expectations. The findings also indicate non-normal distributions in the output gap and notable serial correlation in both inflation and output, underscoring the pivotal influence of market sentiment – captured by an animal spirit index – on macroeconomic volatility.
Squeezing the Curve: Unlocking Yield Information for Better Recession Forecasts in the CEE Region
Authors: TARTA Gheorghe-Alexandru , NEACSU Andrei-Costin , NEACSU George Alexandru
Published: February 2025

This study revisits the predictive capacity of the yield curve for recession signals in the industrial sectors of Central and Eastern Europe. The analysis considers the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Romania as reference economies for the region. Yield curves, historically reliable indicators for downturns, have shown diminishing accuracy in recent years, according to the literature. The results highlight a notable weakening in the yield curve’s ability to forecast industrial production across the CEE region, particularly in the post-2019 period. Only for Poland, the last years marked an improvement of the empirical relationship. For Romania, the Czech Republic and Hungary, yield curve efficacy significantly declined suggesting broader structural shifts. Further research was done with focus on Romania, which faced severe declines in industrial output during 2019-2024. By decomposing the yield curve into detailed indicators and employing Bayesian inference, this research extracts deeper insights from term structure data. Bayesian models incorporating persistence measures of curve inversion, even modelled through exponential function, provide moderate improvements, counterbalancing the recent decline in predictive power for Romania. This research points out the importance of complementary economic indicators, such as external demand, while advocating for advanced yield curve modelling methods to enhance forecast accuracy. The proposed procedure of modelling data and estimating the models yields significant performance differences compared to simple models. These results reveal a regional trend of decoupling between financial market signals and industrial sector dynamics, raising critical questions for policymakers and practitioners on the evolving role of yield curves in forecasting.
Resource Theory and Family Violence: Exploring the Views and Opinions of Undergraduate Students from a Ghanaian University
Authors: Ofosu-Koranteng Monica , Boasinke Raymond Kwasi
Published: February 2025

The resource theory posits that in human relationships, the individuals within that relationship who possess or have access to the most needed or desired resource tend to be the most powerful and influential. This study investigates the relationship between the resource theory and family violence. Here, family violence is defined as any act or actions among family members which is intended to cause pain or harm to an individual or individuals within that family set-up. The study sought to establish the respondents’ understanding of resource theory and family violence as well as their understanding of how resource theory can contribute to family violence. The study also sought to establish the respondents' experience with family violence and whether their experience can be traced to or associated with the resource theory. The study employed a descriptive research design involving ninety (90) randomly selected undergraduate students from the Department of Sociology and Anthropology of the University of Cape Coast Ghana. Data was collected using a self-administered semi-structured questionnaire with twenty-four (24) questions. Data was subsequently analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21.0, and the results were presented using inferential statistics. The analysis found that most respondents (62%) understood the concept of family violence. Additionally, most respondents (61%) understood the resource theory. Most students (49%) agreed that, in practice, the resource theory creates a power imbalance among family members, which may lead to violence or the use of force and aggression within the family unit. The results also established that (i) there is a statistically significant relationship between resource theory and power imbalance and (ii) there is a statistically significant relationship between resource-related power imbalance and family violence. The respondents agreed that the resource theory is a significant tool for explaining and understanding family violence. This study concluded that the relationship between the two is shaped by culture, socioeconomic status, and individual experiences. Therefore, the study emphasised the need for context-sensitive approaches and the intersection between the resource theory and other frameworks, such as the feminist and social learning theories, to understand and address family violence, highlighting the importance of reducing resource inequalities and power imbalances within households and family units.
Opinion: Influence of mean free path of air on atmospheric particle growth
Authors: Cai Runlong , Kulmala Markku
Published: February 2025

Abstract. Recent studies by Tsalikis et al. (2023, 2024) predicted that the mean free path of air (λair) could be significantly smaller than widely used values by a factor of ~2. Given the fundamental importance of λair, it has been a question that whether an overestimation of λair would have profound influences on a number of aerosol processes. Here we assume that the newly proposed value of λair is accurate and examine its influences on our understanding of atmospheric aerosols. We show that for collisions-induced aerosol dynamics such as the condensation growth of atmospheric particles, the collision rate and hence the growth rate are determined by an effective mean free path for vapor and particle collision rather than λair. Similar to the cause of a smaller λair, the overlooked force field in hard-sphere models may enhance vapor-particle collisions; however, this enhancement has been accounted for in previous studies. As a result, we find that the smaller λair does not directly influence particle collisions, i.e., it does not challenge the previous understandings on particle growth in the lowertroposhpere. Other potential influences on growth involving a high excess latent heat and the uncertainties in the sub-5 nm size range are also addressed.
Can satellite altimetry observe coastally trapped waves on sub-monthly timescales?
Authors: Passaro Marcello
Published: February 2025

Abstract. Coastally trapped waves (CTWs) are a major cause of sub-seasonal coastal sea level variability. While they have mostly been studied using numerical models, observational evidence is limited due to the sparse spatial coverage of the tide gauge network and the limitations of satellite altimetry gridded maps, which arise from the interpolation of sparse along-track data. The simultaneous operation of multiple altimetry missions, advancements in processing technologies, the advent of wide-swath altimetry, and the development of new interpolation techniques have the potential to significantly improve the monitoring of CTWs. In this study, we analyze three months of sea level data from satellite altimetry to evaluate the new capabilities for detecting sub-monthly variability, comparing the results to tide gauge data and an ocean model in Eastern Australia, an area known for its dominance of CTWs at these time scales. The results demonstrate that in the study area, the correlation between tide gauges and coastal daily sea level grids from satellite altimetry exceeds 0.5, even when considering time series filtered to capture only sub-monthly variability. CTWs are generally well detected, though discrepancies remain, particularly in terms of amplitude.
Towards robust community assessments of the Earth's climate sensitivity
Authors: Marvel Kate , Webb Mark
Published: February 2025

Abstract. The eventual planetary warming in response to elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations is not precisely known. The uncertainty in climate sensitivity (S) primarily results from uncertainties in net physical climate feedback, usually denoted as λ. Multiple lines of evidence can constrain this feedback parameter: proxy-based and model evidence from past equilibrium climates; process-based understanding of the physics underlying changes; and recent observations of temperature change, top-of-the-atmosphere energy imbalance, and ocean heat content. However, despite recent advances in combining these lines of evidence, the estimated range of S remains large. Here, using a Bayesian framework, we discuss three sources of uncertainty – uncertainty in the evidence, structural uncertainty in the model used to interpret this evidence, and differing prior knowledge and/or beliefs – and show how these affect the conclusions we may draw from a single line of evidence. We then propose strategies to combine multiple lines of evidence. We end with three recommendations. First, we suggest that a Bayesian random-effects meta-analysis be used to estimate the evidence and its uncertainty from the published literature. Second, we advocate that the organizers of future assessments clearly specify an interpretive model or a group of candidate models and, in the latter case, use Bayesian model averaging to more heavily weight models that best fit the evidence. Third, we recommend that expert judgment be incorporated via solicitations of priors on model parameters.
Sensitivity of predicted ultrafine particle size distributions in Europe to different nucleation rate parameterizations using PMCAMx-UF v2.2
Authors: Patoulias David , Florou Kalliopi , Pandis Spyros N.
Published: February 2025

Abstract. The three-dimensional chemical transport model, PMCAMx-UF v2.2, designed to simulate the ultrafine particle size distribution, was used to investigate the impact of varying nucleation mechanisms on the predicted aerosol number concentration in Europe. Two basic case scenarios were examined: the original ternary H2SO4–NH3–H2O parameterization and a biogenic vapor–sulfuric acid parameterization. Using the organic-based parameterization, PMCAMx-UF predicted higher N10 (particle number above 10 nm) concentrations over Europe by 40 %–60 % on average during the simulated period, which is a relatively small difference, given the differences in the two assumed mechanisms. The low sensitivity of the particle number concentrations to the nucleation mechanisms used in this study may not exist in other regions outside Europe. Adjusting the nucleation rate by an order of magnitude for both mechanisms led to an average change of ±30 % in N10 for the ternary ammonia case and −30 % to 40 % for the biogenic vapor case. In the biogenic organic nucleation scenario, reducing the fresh nuclei diameter from 1.7 to 1 nm resulted in reductions in N10 and N100 by −13 % and −1 %, respectively. Incorporating extremely low-volatility organic compounds (ELVOCs) as the nucleating species resulted in a predicted increase in the N10 concentration by 10 %–40 % over continental Europe compared to the ammonia parameterization. Model predictions were evaluated against field measurements from 26 stations across Europe during the summer of 2012. For N10, the ternary ammonia and ELVOC-based parameterizations were in better agreement with the field data compared to the other tested mechanisms. In the case of N100, all used parameterizations resulted in predictions that were consistent with the available field measurements.
Sentinel-1 SAR-based Globally Distributed Co-Seismic Landslide Detection by Deep Neural Networks

Published: February 2025

Abstract. Rapid response to multiple landslide events (MLEs) demands accurate, all-weather, day-and-night detection capabilities. Optical remote sensing has advanced landslide detection but remains limited under adverse weather and lighting conditions. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), resilient to these constraints, remains underexplored for automated landslide detection due to challenges such as complex pre-processing and geometric distortions. This study integrates Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) with SAR backscatter data for co-seismic landslide detection, utilizing a data-centric approach. We inform the models using 11 earthquake-induced MLEs, covering ≈ 73000 landslides across diverse geologic and climatic settings. Inference on unseen MLEs in Haiti (2021) and Sumatra (2022) demonstrates robust transferability, achieving F1-scores up to 82 %. Using explainable artificial intelligence, we highlight the discriminative capability of change detection bands over backscatter alone. Our findings emphasize the potential of SAR-based DNN models for worldwide, generalized, and rapid landslide detection, addressing critical gaps in current methods that solely use optical data. This research lays a foundation for broader applications in automated SAR-based earth surface change detection, particularly in complex, hilly and mountainous terrains.
Brief communication: Potential of satellite optical imagery to monitor glacier surface flow velocity variability in the tropical Andes
Authors: Ducasse Etienne , Millan Romain , Andersen Jonas Kvist , Rabatel Antoine
Published: February 2025

Abstract. We present an analysis of glacier dynamics in mountain ranges of the tropical Andes of southern Peru and Bolivia using satellite data from 2013 to 2022. Despite the challenges posed by small glaciers (width<500 m), low velocities (<100myr-1), and high cloudiness during the monsoon, we map annually aggregated surface velocities and quantify the seasonal variability in the fastest parts of the glaciers. Limited trends are observed in the annual velocities over the last decade, but significant seasonal changes between the wet and dry seasons are found, likely controlled by the seasonality in meltwater production and the related changes in the hydrological conditions at the glacier–bedrock interface.

In the article, we address the lexicological and etymological questions of Armenian, based on the newly acquired material, in the general context of the history of the language. Over the years, the works we have done in that direction are the basis for saying that the lexicologica-typological examination of the Armenian vocabulary is entering a new direction, especially with the application of new principles and semantic approaches, which gives a certain result. At present, the origin of more than a few hundred words (words-roots) has been revealed or corrected, so that the whole of the well-known etymological dictionaries is compiled. For now, our work is a manuscript, there are many published scientific articles and monographic works on the subject.

Authors:   Samarkand branch of the International school of finance, technology and science, Samarkand, Uzbekistan, Shimanskaya D.B.
Published: February 2025

В статье рассматривается диалогическая структура произведения Зоры Нил Херстон “Their eyes were watching God”, уделяя особое внимание тому, как диалог функционирует как ключевой повествовательный прием. Херстон мастерски использует разговорный язык для изображения внутренней и внешней жизни своих персонажей, особенно главной героини Джени Кроуфорд. В исследовании рассматривается, как взаимодействие между повествовательным голосом и устным диалогом не только формирует развитие персонажей, но и отражает более широкую социальную и культурную динамику афроамериканского сообщества в начале 20 века. Диалогическая структура способствует уникальному повествовательному ритму, позволяя читателям взаимодействовать с жизненным опытом персонажей через призму устной традиции. В статье также обсуждается, как использование Херстон диалекта усиливает темы гендера, идентичности и расширения прав и возможностей, создавая насыщенный, многослойный текст, который предлагает множественные интерпретации.

Published: February 2025

Este trabajo se aproxima al Contenido Generado por el Usuario (CGU) desde la perspectiva de su valor y contribución a la revitalización del periodismo televisivo en un entorno de profunda transformación y creciente desapego de las audiencias. Se realiza un análisis de contenido de los vídeos recogidos durante la última década en la web oficial del archivo de Canal Sur Televisión, una entidad especialmente relevante por su singularidad como ente público y por el ambicioso proyecto de digitalización y renovación en que está inmerso. En total, han sido visionadas y analizadas 502 piezas informativas que abordan hechos noticiables de diferentes temáticas. Ello ha permitido evaluar los procesos e identificar y codificar los criterios que el periodista utiliza para seleccionar el material audiovisual captado y producido por los ciudadanos. Metodológicamente, el análisis de contenido se completa y refuerza con una experiencia de observación participante en el medio analizado. Los resultados evidencian que el CGU más valorado por los periodistas es el registrado por el ciudadano de manera inmediata y simultánea al acontecimiento de interés; aquel que ofrece información adicional sobre un hecho actual, imprevisible, novedoso y espectacular tiene más posibilidades de incluirse en una pieza televisiva. Se confirma que el CGU también es seleccionado por el informador por sus posibles aportes informativos y expresivos. La investigación no es ajena a las obligadas cuestiones éticas que implican este tipo de contenidos y a las propias dinámicas profesionales que conlleva su inclusión en un medio público como Canal Sur Televisión.

El relato de la precariedad: de lo mediático a lo memético
Authors: Barcenilla-Román Lu , Gayà-Morlà Catalina
Published: February 2025

Este artículo parte de la urgencia de conocer las dinámicas del meme como narrativa para conocer y comprender cómo se está autonarrando una gran parte de la sociedad actual, concretamente un amplio espectro de la juventud y la población adulta. El objetivo es poner en tensión si el meme discute la representación del mundo que media o si, en cambio, legitima dicha representación hegemónica. Para ello se analiza la representación de la precariedad, previamente definida a través de unos marcadores, en siete cuentas usuarias de la red social Instagram en el ámbito iberoamericano –que se dirige a un público español mayoritariamente en este idioma– y especializadas en el formato del meme que aborda la temática de la precariedad o elementos que confluyen en ella. Para el análisis de las unidades, se desarrolla una matriz interpretativa como herramienta de codificación delimitada en tres fases de descripción. Los resultados obtenidos facilitan avanzar en la discusión que enfrenta al meme como narrativa y mecanismo de reproducción del relato mediático y el meme como artefacto narrativo condensado que ejerce como una mediación cultural con un relato propio y que desborda dicho relato mediático. De hecho, los resultados muestran que el meme no posibilita una transformación ni un desbordamiento de la hegemonía, ya que, como en el relato mediático, el memético excluye la clave de la interpelación al colectivo como textualidad crítica.

Este artículo analiza los efectos de la irrupción de internet y la digitalización sobre la radio musical en España, la gran ventana de la industria discográfica para el descubrimiento y popularización de los lanzamientos del pop y el rock, y una de las principales vías de atracción de nuevos oyentes al medio. A partir de la triangulación de indicadores de las canciones más radiadas, las que alcanzaron el número 1 y las más vendidas entre 2008 y 2023, se constatan patrones de convergencia y divergencia que revelan el progresivo distanciamiento entre la oferta de las emisoras y las decisiones sobre la compra de discos. El estudio subraya la conveniencia de que la industria radiofónica redefina su estrategia para adaptarse a las preferencias y dinámicas de consumo del público, hoy condicionadas por las tecnologías y canales de distribución digital. La transformación del panorama musical a raíz de la digitalización no solo ha alterado los hábitos de escucha y compra de los usuarios: también ha puesto en evidencia la necesidad de una mayor sincronización entre la radio y las plataformas digitales de audio y video. La radio, históricamente determinante en la promoción de nuevos talentos y éxitos, afronta el desafío de integrarse en un ecosistema multimedia en constante cambio. Para asegurar su relevancia y competitividad, debe adoptar un enfoque más flexible que considere tanto el comportamiento de los usuarios en el entorno digital como las oportunidades que ofrecen las nuevas tecnologías para la interacción y fidelización de su audiencia.

Background. The quality of prolonged epidural analgesia depends not only on the pain level, but also on the patient`s complacency with the methods by which the fixation of the epidural catheter (EC) was performed, as well as on its efficiency. Despite the wide distribution of epidural anesthesia/analgesia by staff carrying out the operation of the EC, little attention has been paid to these factors so far.

Aim. To determine the optimal the EC fixation method by the level of comfort and efficiency during the prolonged epidural analgesia based on questionnaires of patients and doctors.

Materials and methods. The comparative research of three methods of the EC fixation in patients during the conducting of prolonged epidural anesthesia after the surgery treatment of fractures of the lower limb bones was carried out. Patients were splited into three groups: group 1 (n = 20) with the EC fixation in the site of epidural access by the fixing device Lockit; group 2 (n = 20) with the EC fixation by the methods of the tunneling under the skin with the formation of a subcutaneous catheter loop; group 3 (n = 20) with the EC fixation in the site of epidural access by the fixing device Epi-Fix. We have developed two questionnaires to choose the optimal method of the EC fixation. The first questionnaire is intended for a patient, in which he assessed the level of comfort when fixing the EC during the change of the patch or fixing device, as well as comfort during mobilization activities. The second questionnaire is intended for to assess the efficiency of EC fixation in various methods, which was filled out by the doctor who installed the EC and operated it. After that, the scores were summed and the total scores in the three study groups were compared. Informed consent was obtained from all patients to conduct a survey for the purpose of the research work.

Results. The total score in the 1st group is 200, in the 2nd group – 294, in the 3rd group – 209. Statistically significant differences were found when comparing group 3 (Epi-Fix) and group 2 (tunneling) and when comparing group 1 (Lockit) and group 2 (tunneling), where p < 0,05. No statistically significant differences were found when comparing group 1 (Lockit) and group 3 (Epi-Fix).

Conclusion. When comparing three methods of EC fixation using questionnaires for patients and doctors, the method of tunneling under the skin with the formation of a subcutaneous catheter loop was determined as optimal in terms of comfort and efficiency.

Published: February 2025

In underdeveloped nations where low resources and poor healthcare infrastructure impede accurate diagnosis and therapy, bronchial asthma in children is a significant public health issue. Children's health and quality of life are seriously threatened by this disorder, which is marked by coughing, dyspnea, and repeated wheezing, particularly when combined with environmental elements such pollution and poor air quality. Targeted treatments are desperately needed, as early childhood onset and a high frequency in socioeconomically poor areas highlight. Emphasizing the requirement of easily available diagnostic equipment, better treatment choices, and community education, this analysis exposes the crucial deficiencies in asthma therapy in poor countries. Reducing the burden of childhood asthma and enhancing the outcomes for impacted children depend on more investment in healthcare and greater emphasis on asthma-specific public health projects.
Fragments of Displacement: Diaspora and Identity in Chinua Achebe and Khaled Hosseini’s Works
Authors: Bhupendra, Richa Arora
Published: February 2025

This paper aims at comparing the portrayal of diaspora in selected novels by Chinua Achebe and Khaled Hosseini, two great writers of different origin. Analysing the works of Achebe including “Things Fall Apart”, “No Longer at Ease”, “Arrow of God”, and “Anthills of the Savannah” as well as Hosseini’s “The Kite Runner”, “A Thousand Splendid Suns” and “And the Mountains Echoed”, this research aims at understanding how these writers depict themes of cultural displacement, identity formation and the search for belonging in diaspora. Using the method of qualitative research based on the postcolonial theory and diaspora, the study focuses on the narrative patterns, characterization, language and themes in these texts. This paper will discuss how the authors and the historical backgrounds that they come from shape the representation of diaspora, as well as how colonialism, war, and globalization affect people’s identities.The research shows that there is a similarity and a major difference of the two authors in the representation of the diaspora. While Achebe mainly concentrates on the issues of internal migration and cultural alienation due to colonialism in Nigeria, Hosseini describes the difficulties of immigrants and integration of Afghan refugees.
