The epic of Joan of Arc through the eyes of a law historian (on the new book by Claude Gauvard)
Authors:   Institute of World History of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Togoeva Olga
Published: November 2024

The article is devoted to the analysis of a monograph written by Claude Gauvard, professor emeritus at the Panthéon-I-Sorbonne University, a former student of Bernard Guenée and a recognized specialist in political history and the history of medieval law of the Western Europe. In her new work the researcher turned to the history of Joan of Arc, and despite the fact that in the last two decades the études johanniques have been experiencing a genuine flourishing and it is already difficult to find a plot that would not receive coverage in historiography, Claude Gauvard chose a very special angle for this topic. The author of the article examines in detail the formulation of the problem proposed in the monograph – to study the history of the national French heroine from the point of view of the legal ideas of Europeans of the late Middle Ages; to show exactly which topics formed the basis of the reputation of Joan of Arc and of her subsequent perception by contemporaries; to reveal the purely legal aspects of the Maid’s relations with her supporters and opponents, and above all, of the assessment of her activities during the indictment process of 1431 and the rehabilitation process of 1455–1456.
An ordinary man in the midst of great events (on the book by T. Tackett)
Authors:   Moscow State Lomonosov University, Pimenova Liudmila
Published: November 2024

The essay is devoted to the new book by Timothy Tackett, the well-known American researcher of the French Revolution. The historian continues the study of changes in human views and behavior under the influence of revolutionary events, which he began earlier using the example of deputies of the French National Assembly. The new monograph is a micro-historical study based on 1080 letters stored in the archives of the Indre department, sent from Paris to the province in 1778-1795 by a lawyer A.-J. Colson. The book contains a lot of information about everyday life in Paris in the 1780s and 1790s, and reveals the radical ideological transformation of Colson, who was an elderly man at the beginning of the revolution. Devoted to the king and the monarchy, far from the ideas of the Enlightenment in 1789, he became a supporter of M. Robespierre and the Montagnards in 1792-1793. The material of the book allows us to trace this change under the influence of events, communication with neighbors, reading newspapers and pamphlets, fears of a «counter-revolutionary conspiracy», and attempts to rethink these events as a return to original Christianity. This individual case invites for reflection on the general trends in the dynamics of collective representations in France at the end of the 18th century.
A new look at the history of the periphery of Napoleon's Empire: state-building and popular resistance in the Duchy of Parma (on the book by D. P. Harsanyi)
Authors:   State Academic University for the Humanities, Mitrofanov Andrey ,   Institute of World History of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: November 2024

The author of the article reviewed the Doina Pasqua Harsanyi’s book French Rule in the States of Parma, 1796-1814. Working with Napoleon. The author of this monograph focuses on two main issues. She analyzes the processes of transfer of French state institutions to the Italian soil, political integration, acculturation and formation of popular resistance on the territory of the duchies of Parma, Piacenza and Guastalla. Harsanyi's study is carried out in the classic genre of regional history research, the results of which have implications for general Italian history. According to the author of book, the territory of the former duchies annexed to France (1808) became a laboratory for the development of Napoleonic policy in Italy. Harsanyi shows how French prefects implemented Napoleon's plans for legislative, administrative, judicial, financial, military, and police reforms between 1802 and 1814. She points out that the results of these policies were generally positive for this small state. The combination of hard and soft power was ultimately a boon for the small Italian state, which had been undergoing a period of accelerated modernization for twelve years. As Harsanyi points out, this outcome was largely due to political and cultural dialogue, that is, the cooperation of local Italian elites with the Napoleonic administration
Napoleonic Wars as a global conflict (on the new book by V. M. Bezotosny)
Authors:   Saratov State University, Zemtsov Vladimir ,   Ural State Pedagogical University,   Ural Federal University
Published: November 2024

A characteristic feature of the study of the Napoleonic Wars in recent years has been the turn to discussing the role and place of these wars in the global history of mankind. This can be exemplified by the publication of a number of fundamental works, including the three-volume Cambridge History of the Napoleonic Wars. A notable place in the series of such publications is occupied by V. M. Bezotosny's monograph The Historical Landscape of the Napoleonic Wars. World Conflict and the Clash of Empires. The author, first, declares the necessity to abandon Eurocentrism and approach the textbook event for domestic historiography – the War of 1812 – in the light of asynchrony of socio-economic and political processes in the world. Pointing out the typological similarity of the Napoleonic Wars era with the First and Second World Wars, the author considers the epoch of the turn of the 18th – 19th centuries as a kind of “zero”, i.e. “World War I”. Describing the general historical landscape of the Napoleonic era, he suggests that along with the main “geopolitical triangle” – Great Britain, Russia and France – to focus on the struggle outside Europe. As for Napoleonic France, which tried to achieve its expansion to all-European borders, the author believes that its demise was historically predetermined. The Napoleonic Empire was systematically subjected to destruction from outside and inside. And the decisive role in this undermining of the Napoleonic Empire belonged to Russia and largely to England. Important consequences of the Napoleonic Wars were the process of consolidation of the German lands around Prussia, the entry of the Austrian Empire into a state of protracted crisis, and the emergence of the prospect of deep discord in Russian society, which in the long term resulted in the events of 1917. While debunking Napoleon as a great historical figure and state strategist, the author nevertheless concludes that the wars of 1792–1815 gave a noticeable acceleration to the process of modernization, contributed to the emergence of new ideological trends and intensified the rivalry of leading countries in the colonial sphere.
The Emperor is dead! Long live the Empire! (Napoleon and his legacy)
Authors:   State Academic University for the Humanities, Zaytseva Daria ,   Institute of World History of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: November 2024

In 2023, the collective work «From the Napoleonic Empire to the Age of Empire», edited by Thomas Dodman and Aurélien Lignereux, was published. The recent bicentennial of Napoleon’s death has served as an opportunity for historians to turn to Bonaparte’s imperial legacy and the forms of domination that were established during his era and continued after 1814–1815. The editors argue that such an approach can allow us to move beyond the traditional framework of Napoleonic historiography and away from a purely factual approach. Moreover, the Napoleonic Empire is a key link between the colonial empires of the early modern period and the empires of the nineteenth century, and therefore deserves special attention. The collection consists of three parts: the first is devoted directly to the period of the Napoleonic Empire, in particular, to subjects related primarily to France’s policy in the Middle East; the second examines the individual trajectories of certain individuals or social groups in the context of imperial transformations; and the third examines French foreign policy initiatives in Algeria and Egypt in the post-Napoleonic era.
The revolt of Etienne Marcel: Who won and who lost?
Authors:   Institute of World History of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Tsaturova Susanna
Published: November 2024

The political crisis in France in 1356–1358, referred in historiography as the “Etienne Marcel revolt”, has been thoroughly studied; all sources have been published, new ones are unlikely to appear. Estimations of these events have changed over the centuries, in the context of current methodological and ideological trends. Renewal of the political history allows us to take a new look at this traditional subject. The article attempts to understand the essence of the events that took place, and their consequences. The political crisis that broke out in France was a repercussion of the formation of a political society, and the activity of the estates. The general background of discontent with chivalry, and the ambitions of the strengthened urban estate determined the vector of demands on the power of deputies of the General Estates. Nobles, the emerging bureaucracy, and university masters played an important role in the development of reform programs. As a result, of overcoming the crisis, each social group has achieved its goals, albeit in a slightly modified form. Thanks to the new system of apanages, the members of the royal family received a higher status and authority, turning into a cohesive team of the monarch. The hereditary principle of succession to the throne was formalized in a decree of 1374. The competitive selection for all positions was established in the royal administration, which laid the foundations for the irremovability of officials, and meritocracy. University intellectuals gained a place at the throne of the monarch, competing with lawyers, and continued to defend the importance of dialogue between government and society. The townspeople, led by Parisians, and peasants, have achieved recognition of their importance in the life of the country. Only the institute of the General Estates was discredited for a long time. The government still consulted with society, but in other forms.
The people's leader versus the viceroy: the power struggle between Pascal Paoli and Gilbert Eliott in the Anglo-Corsican kingdom
Authors:   State Academic University for the Humanities, Verchenkova Victoria
Published: November 2024

Corsica is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, which belonged to France since 1768, except for two years of the Anglo-Corsican Kingdom (1794–1796). Creating a common state, the British and Corsicans pursued different goals: the first needed to gain a navy base in the Mediterranean, the second – to obtain external protection for their sovereignty. The two most influential political figures in the Anglo-Corsican Kingdom were its Viceroy, the Briton Gilbert Elliott and the Corsican Pascal Paoli, the long-term leader of the islanders' struggle for independence. They were two completely different people, both in their political beliefs and in their characters. Elliot had a developed sense of tact and a good sense of humor, which, however, made little impression on Corsicans. Paoli, who was already at an advanced age, but was very popular among his compatriots, did not want to completely cede the reins of government to the British and did not trust them. Each of the two leaders wanted to become the rightful ruler of the island, which could not but affect their relationship. An important factor that aggravated these relations was Elliott's support for the young Corsican politician Pozzo di Borgo, in whom he saw a convenient replacement for the intractable Paoli. In the end, Elliot succeeded in sending Paoli to an honorable exile in England. However, after that, nothing stopped ordinary Corsicans, disappointed with British rule, from expressing their dissatisfaction with it. Only a year after the departure of the Corsican leader from the island, the Anglo-Corsican Kingdom ceased to exist.
The Impact of the Determination of PKN Surakarta and its Surroundings on the Subosukawonosraten Development Area
Authors: Mudzakir Aditya Muhammad , Indriani Fera , Ramadhan Muhammad Daiyan
Published: November 2024

This study combines growth center theory, basic sector concept, and shift-share analysis to evaluate the impact of the establishment of the National Activity Center (PKN) of Surakarta and its surroundings on the Subosukawonosraten Development Area. The results show that the policy of determining the national activity center in the city area tends to increase economic growth, however, the hierarchical structure of the national urban system must be considered. The application of Functional Urban Area (FUA) emerges as a solution to support economic growth and sustainability, with infrastructure being the key driver. The analysis of basic economic sectors shows that the policy of establishing PKN Surakarta affects the growth of the industrial sector, especially in the area around Subosukawonosraten. Surakarta City becomes the center of service sector activities, while the surrounding areas develop in the industrial sector. The result also differentiates the development of economic base between the areas designated as Regional City Center (PKW) and Local City Center (PKL).
Medium and large mammals from a locality in the Cerrado of northwest Minas Gerais, Brazil
Authors: Laurindo Rafael Souza
Published: November 2024

The Brazilian Cerrado is the second largest biome in the country, covering around 200 million hectares. The combination of a high taxonomic richness, elevated species endemism, and high degree of threat makes the Cerrado one of the world's hotspots for biodiversity conservation. Cerrado is home to a high mammal species richness, with 251 species, of which 22 are considered endemic. However, the biome is at the center of the expansion of Brazilian agriculture, concentrating the largest portion of national grain production, which has led to high rates of deforestation due to the conversion of native habitats into pastures and agricultural land. In this context, I present data from monitoring medium and large-sized mammals on a private property formed by a mosaic of native vegetation and anthropogenic areas in the northwest of Minas Gerais, southeast of Brazil. Sampling was carried out between June 2021 and November 2022, totaling 42 days of sampling, using different non-invasive methodologies. A total of 24 species of mammals were recorded, including top predators, such as Puma concolor and Leopardus pardalis, which play critical roles in regulating ecosystems and food web dynamics. We have also recorded species vulnerable to extinction, such as Chrysocyon brachyurus and Tapirus terrestris. Moreover, no differences were found in the species composition recorded between the dry and rainy seasons. The study area covers a great diversity of natural and anthropogenic habitats that provide shelter and food for fauna, supporting a rich assemblage of medium and large-sized mammals.
Intersectionality and Women Academics in Indian Higher Education
Authors: Khanna Gauri , Mukherjee Mousumi
Published: November 2024

Globally, women's representation in higher education has increased rapidly, leading to a dramatic rise in female labor force participation. In India, despite achieving gender parity in access to higher education, progress in closing gender gaps in the labor force remains unsatisfactory. Similar to enrollments in higher education, the percentage of women who pursue careers in higher education as faculty also reflects gender parity within faculty compositions. Women's representation in senior academic positions, however, is negligible, with less than 10% of institutions led by women and fewer than 30% holding professor positions. This study explores the experiences of three female academicians working in public higher education institutes in Delhi, India. Through an intersectional lens, it delves into the complex challenges arising from the interaction of multiple societal identities among Indian women academicians. The analysis highlights the obstacles women face at different stages of their careers, from enrollment and recruitment to career progression in higher education. The study finds that women's motivation and self-belief are crucial in navigating these challenges. Additionally, a conducive environment, supportive leadership, and flexible work schedules are pivotal in facilitating women's advancement in academia. This research contributes to the existing body of knowledge on Indian women in academia, emphasizing intersectional identity and lived experiences.
An Intersectionality based Policy Analysis Framework: Advancing the Multiple Equity Measures
Authors: Nepali Purna , Baral Prakash
Published: November 2024

This paper aims to devise intersectionality based policy analysis to advance multiple equity measures, with the in-depth analysis of access to land resources by Dalit community in rural-agrarian settings, and a special focus on their current state and causes of landlessness and its effect on social exclusion/inclusion. Contributing to the theoretical debate on caste and class formation, the study depicts on how the caste system influences land ownership and access. It addresses the complex and multiple inequalities embedded in the lived experiences of Dalit communities, reflecting their lower social status and class position in Nepali society. The intersectionality framework proves highly relevant for examining innovative policy approaches related to land accessibility among Dalits, facilitating the translation of intricate knowledge into accessible messages essential for a new policy discourse that prevents the concentration of resources and services in the hands of elites within marginalized groups.

First year, university transfer students experience challenges typically addressed with mentoring. Peer mentoring provides a culturally relevant approach to reduce disparities in educational achievements. This study seeks to understand the experiences of peer mentors and the impact on their relationships with first-year transfer students attending a Hispanic Serving Institution. Using a case study approach, our research finds that peer mentors were ill-equipped to handle challenges associated with having a transfer student mentee. Our findings suggest training requires improvement and better consideration of peer mentor-mentee pairings with due to the dynamic issues caused by incongruency in age or gender, lack of relatability to or lack of proper knowledge for mentees with backgrounds differing the mentors, and mentors experiencing imposter syndrome.

ВПЛИВ ФІТОТЕРАПІЇ НА РЕПРОДУКТИВНЕ ЗДОРОВ’Я ЧОЛОВІКІВ
Authors: Ціпоренко Сергій
Published: November 2024

Дослідженням встановлено, шо у хворих чоловіків з наявністю хронічних інфекційних процесів у урогенітальному тракті відмічається збільшення концентрації продуктів перекисного окислення ліпідів: проміжного – дієновий кон’югат та кінцевого – малоновий діальдегід у сироватці крові. Поряд з цим у більшості обстежених хворих відмічається зниження антиоксидантного потенціалу крові, про що свідчить зменшення активності супероксиддисмутази та пригнічення інтегрального індексу Фареса. Комплексна медикаментозна протизапальна терапія при малосимптомних урогенітальних запальних процесах не завжди забезпечує стійкого терапевтичного ефекту, оскільки її результати залежать від біологічних властивостей збудників, стану системи імунітету, природної резистентності пацієнта та стану антиоксидаційної системи. Виходячи з цього, в сучасних умовах велика увага надається вивченню ефетивності препаратів в лікуванні та медичній реабілітації хворих з хронічною урогенітальною патологією. Призначення фітозасобу аденофіт-форте у комплексному лікуванні хворих з хронічним запаленням урогенітального тракту у чоловіків ускладненого безпліддям призводить до нормалізації діяльності про- та антиоксидантної систем.

Published: November 2024

Дослідження зосереджене на аналізі процесу становлення традиції старообрядницького іконопису на території історичного регіону Стародубщини, яка займає прикордонне положення між сучасними Брянською, Гомельською та Чернігівською областями. Ця територія, будучи частиною Стародубського полку, відіграє важливу роль у контексті розвитку українського сакрального мистецтва, репрезентуючи унікальні культурні явища, сформовані під впливом історичних подій та етнокультурних факторів. Метою дослідження є виявлення процесів формуванню унікального іконографічного стилю Стародубщини під впливом складних історичних подій, культурних трансформацій та етнографічних чинників. Дослідження охоплює комплекс складних історичних подій, серед яких важливе місце займає церковний розкол, що спричинив масове переселення старообрядців з Московії на територію Стародубщини та їхнє переслідування і репресії. Незважаючи на важкі умови, пов'язані з репресіями та утисками, місцеві художні центри продовжували свою діяльність, зберігаючи традиції і навіть впливаючи на розвиток мистецьких процесів в інших регіонах, що свідчить про стійкість і культурну значущість старообрядницького іконопису. Крім того, у роботі виявлено, що Стародубська школа іконопису є винятковим мультикультурним феноменом, який ілюструє взаємодію українських та білоруських мистецьких традицій, що сформували унікальний художній стиль регіону. Стародубський іконопис відрізняється народним характером, яскравою кольоровою гамою та оригінальними іконографічними композиціями. Зазначені історичний розвиток та поступовий занепад старообрядницьких іконописних центрів та майстерень на території Стародубщини. В рамках дослідження також підтверджено безперервність традиції іконопису до ХХ століття, що підкреслює його культурне значення і тривалість.
Community Engagement Strategies to Increase Vaccination Rates among African Americans: A Systematic Review
Authors:   Concordia University Irvine, USA, Chung Dion , Wozniak Tayah ,   Concordia University Irvine, USA
Published: November 2024

Abstract: The growing concerns and hesitations over vaccinations have contributed to the rising health disparity among African Americans. Vaccines are essential interventions used to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. With high levels of vaccine hesitancy, there has been a considerable decrease in vaccination rates, especially among African Americans. Different strategies are needed to address vaccine hesitancy at an individual and community level. Previous research has analyzed the effects of monetary incentives, mass media, and technology-based health literacy strategies on vaccination uptake. Despite these strategies, the health disparity among African Americans persists. Therefore, this systematic review will analyze community engagement strategies and their impact on increasing vaccination uptake among African Americans. Initially, 87 articles were retrieved from Pubmed, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were used to screen the primary studies, and CASP and JADED quality scores were assessed. After screening the articles through the exclusion and inclusion criteria, five reviewed studies were included in the systematic review. The findings from five reviewed studies indicated that the leading causes of vaccine hesitancy within African American communities were medical mistrust and lack of accessibility. The solutions that were effective at combating medical mistrust and lack of accessibility were implementing community forums and community-academic partnerships, where faith-based or highly respected leaders within the community facilitated these events. In addition, implementing vaccine access points can help increase the accessibility of vaccines. All five studies lacked statistical analysis, indicating that additional research is needed to investigate the statistical impacts of the different community engagement strategies on vaccinations.

Osnovno pitanje u ovom članku je zašto Isus koristi životinju – magarca kod svog ulaska u Jeruzalem i što to govori o njegovom odnosu prema stvorenju? Glavni doprinos autora ovdje će biti polju brige za Božje stvorenje kroz kristološku perspektivu i analizu biblijskog teksta iz Mateja 21,1-11. Analiza će ukazati kako Isus u Mateju 21,1-11 po magarcu otkriva svoj kraljevski identitet, ponizni karakter te poziva na promjenu, nasljedovanje i drukčiju eshatološku budućnost. To skupa ukazuje kako Isus želi koristiti životinjski svijet kako bi otkrivao svoj identitet, atribute ili karakter te komunicirati narav budućega svijeta u koji poziva one koji ga slijede. Isus kao ponizni kralj ima misiju dovesti sve stvari u red, svoje palo stvorenje povesti prema „novom stvorenju“ gdje će se dogoditi konzumacija mira između čovjeka i Boga i ostatka Božjeg stvorenja. Koristeći „metodu oporavka“ ili ponovnog iščitavanja biblijskog teksta iz perspektive ekološki svjesne egzegeze, autor uzima u obzir značenje relevantnih starozavjetnih tekstova.
Povijest učeništva u judaizmu
Authors: Dadon Kotel
Published: November 2024

This article deals with the history of discipleship in Judaism and its transition from an individual obligation to a public education system. The article is divided into three main sections: The first section discusses the centrality of education to Torah study in Judaism as well as the Jewish legal concept of “educational obligation” as opposed to the modern legal concept of “right to education.” The second and central section examines the development of the Jewish obligation to educate – the transition from private to public education. The author analyzes the various Talmudic regulations that led to this transition and the relationship between them. At the end of this section, the author discusses the funding structure of the public education system and the right of parents to choose the educational framework for their children. In the third section, the author emphasizes the distinctiveness of Jewish education as the supreme value of the pure intellectual study of the Torah, which refers both to financial interests such as the teachers’ right to strike in Jewish law, and to dedication to study in times of severe hardship and darkness such as the time of the Holocaust. For this research, the author analyzes various Jewish sources, from the written Torah and the oral Torah. From the Talmud, the Mishnah, the Midrash, and rabbinic responsa from the Middle Ages to modern times. Much of this literature has been translated from Hebrew and Aramaic.

TAŞINIR EŞYANIN MALİKİN ELİNDEN RIZASI DIŞINDA ÇIKTIĞI HALLER KAPSAMINDA ALMAN HUKUKUNDA TAZMİNAT BORÇLUSUNA TANINAN “TALEP HAKLARININ DEVRİ” KURUMU (§ 255 BGB) VE TARİHSEL GELİŞİMİ
Authors: Kaya Aydın
Published: November 2024

Alman Hukukunda § 255 BGB hükmü ile eşyanın kaybı nedeniyle tazminat ödemekle yükümlü olan kişiler lehine “talep haklarının devri” kurumu düzenlenmiştir. Temeli Roma Hukukuna dayanan ve Ius Commune döneminde önemli değişiklikler geçirdikten sonra 01.01.1900 tarihinde yürürlüğe giren BGB’de yer verilen söz konusu düzenleme ile bir taraftan malikin zararının en kısa sürede giderilmesi amaçlanırken, diğer taraftan tazminat borçlusuna malikin eşyaya bağlı olarak üçüncü kişilere karşı sahip olduğu talep haklarının devri sağlanmaktadır. Talep haklarının devri, zararın, zarardan ilk derecede sorumlu kişi üzerinde bırakılabilmesi için tazminat borçlusuna gerekli hukuki araçları sağlamaktadır. Talep haklarının devri kurumu, aynı zamanda malikin zenginleşme yasağına aykırı şekilde zarardan fazla bir tazminata hak kazanmasını engelleme amacı da taşımaktadır. Talep haklarının devri, yasal devir niteliğinde olmayıp tazminat borçlusuna ödemezlik def’ine benzer haklar vererek, alacaklıyı talep haklarını kendisine hukuki işlemle devretmesi için zorlama imkanı tanımaktadır. Talep haklarının devri, sebebin ortadan kalkması nedeniyle ortaya çıkan sebepsiz zenginleşme (condictio sine causa ob finitam) hükümlerini dışlamamakta olup, söz konusu hükümlerle birlikte uygulanmaktadır.
Meta-analysis of the Effectiveness of Acupuncture Treatment in Shoulder Pain
Authors: İmren Işık  , Cemal Çevik
Published: November 2024

In this meta analysis, it was aimed to evaluate effectiveness of acupuncture treatment in shoulder pain. Nine articles with 10 samples were chosen for the study out of the 668 acupuncture research studies that were evaluated on scholarly databases (15–23). The ages, female to male ratios, and initial and final Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain levels of research participants were recorded. A total of 365 shoulder pain patients including 238 (65.20%) females and 127 (34.80%) males were subjected to acupuncture treatment. VAS difference mean was -2.66 with 0.87-4.80 range. Age means of shoulder pain patients ranged from 30.8 to 56.81 with 47.66 mean. In all study samples, VAS differences between control group and acupuncture group were significant (p<0.05). Spearman’s rho correlation analysis results showed that only female frequency was significantly correlated with VAS difference (r=-0.760; p<0.05). Correlation between male frequency and age were insignificant (p>0.05). Generalized Linear model (Logit) results showed that effects of gender frequency and age were statistically insignificant (p>0.05). Acupuncture treatment is effective in shoulder pain for individuals of all ages and genders, but this level of effectiveness is higher in men. However, more samples, clinical studies and meaningful regression analysis results are needed to make this generalization.
A Pragmatic Analysis Of Accommodation In Selected Political Discourses In Nigeria
Authors: Martha Nguemo Terna-Abah
Published: November 2024

This paper examines accommodation in selected political discourses in the Nigerian political landscape. The study begins by looking at how the lack clear political ideology and/or the total disregard for it by some Nigerian politicians them to defect from one political party to another and how they employ the nuances of language to prove their allegiance to the new political parties/political associates on the one hand while on the other, using language to distance themselves from their former political parties/former political associates. The data utilized for this study was obtained from secondary sources comprising newspapers and social media handles such as twitter currently X.  After the data analysis using Howard Giles’s (1973), Communication Accommodation Theory as its framework, the study established that politicians who defect from one political party to another converge their speeches to show absolute allegiance and gain acceptance in their new party while also using language , to distance themselves from their former political parties. The findings also revealed that in the face of rampant defections, defectors are sometimes pressured into going the extra mile to prove  their allegiance to their new  political parties or associate by demonizing their former political parties and/or associates whom they once praised to high heavens. The paper concludes by condemning the exploitation of language to surreptitiously pursue personal interests under the guise of contributing to nation building and deepening of democracy.

Published: November 2024

In Indonesia, social media is considered one of the primary channels for the massive spread of hoaxes related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The spread of hoaxes through social media is difficult to control due to the rapid advancement of internet-based information technology and the low level of digital literacy among the public. This study aims to analyze the dissemination of hoaxes and the keywords frequently associated with COVID-19 hoaxes in Indonesia from 2020 to 2022. Employing a descriptive qualitative research approach, this study uses non-participant observation on the website turnbackhoax.id as the data collection method and applies an interactive model for data analysis. The findings reveal that COVID-19 hoaxes in Indonesia are predominantly classified into misleading content, false context, and fabricated content, with fabricated content being identified as the most dangerous type.
Adaptation of soybean to low latitudes using alleles for long juvenile period
Authors: Souza Junior Helio , Harada Arlindo , Destro Deonisio , Kiihl Romeu Afonso Souza
Published: November 2024

The adaptation of soybean to low latitudes was driven by the use of alleles for the long juvenile period, allowing the successful cultivation of the crop in tropical and subtropical regions. Several cultivars were developed from crosses that incorporated these alleles, contributing to the expansion of soybeans in Brazil. Introductions were made from Mississippi developed by Edgar E. Hartwig, and from Florida developed by Kuel Hinson, both soybean breeders of the U.S.D.A. The modified backcrossing method was fundamental for the introduction of the alleles for the long juvenile period in these introductions.  In this way, it was developed the Brazilian soybean germplasm, enabling the adaptation of the crop in regions with lower than 20º South Latitudes. The present work played a fundamental role in this adaptation process, carrying out studies on the inheritance of the juvenile period trait in soybeans. The results of these studies contributed significantly to the development of cultivars adapted to low latitudes and to the success of soybean in Brazil.

Background: The burden of hypertension among the pregnant garment workers in Bangladesh is not well known. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of hypertension and its associated factors among pregnant garment workers attending a health centre in Narayanganj, Bangladesh.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was done among conveniently selected adult pregnant garment workers at ≥20 weeks of gestation who visited a health centre of a garment company in Narayanganj, Bangladesh, between July and October 2023. Data on age, education, job nature, family history, clinical, height, weight, and blood pressure were collected. Binary logistic regression was performed to identify factors associated with hypertension.
Results:  Of 150 participants the average age was 27.3 years (standard deviation, 3.2) and mean gestational age was 21.7 weeks. The prevalence of hypertension among the participants was 7.3% (95% confidence interval, 4.0% - 12.3%). A family history of pregnancy-related hypertension was found to be associated with hypertension (adjusted odds ratio, 34.7; 95% confidence interval, 2.0 - 619.0). 
Conclusion: Approximately one in 14 pregnant garment workers had hypertension, and family history of pregnancy-related hypertension was an associated factor. Healthcare professionals may consider this factor while providing care and counseling to this population.
