İstisnalar Kaideyi Bozar mı? Kentlerin Kökeni Üzerine
Authors: UYSAL Ülke Evrim
Published: January 2024

Bu çalışmada kentlerin kökenine ilişin dört temel yaklaşım eleştirel bir şekilde değerlendirilmiştir. Kentlerin ortaya çıkışına yönelik bu yaklaşımlardan ilki, avcı toplayıcı grupların zamanla tarımla uğraşmaya başlayarak yerleşik yaşama geçmelerini, üretim ve nüfus artışı sonucunda küçük köylerin kademeli bir şekilde kentsel yerleşimlere dönüştüğünü savunan kentsel devrim yaklaşımıdır. Daha sonra bu yaklaşımı eleştiren ve kentlerin kökenine alternatif çözümlemeler sunan, sırasıyla ticaret etkisi, su etkisi, din ve inanç etkilerini vurgulayan diğer yaklaşımlar karşılaştırmalı bir şekilde analiz edilmiştir. İncelenen savlara ‘istisna’ teşkil eden kent örneklerinin varlığı, bu dört yaklaşımın da kentlerin oluşumuna yönelik tek ve evrensel bir kuramsal çerçeve geliştiremediklerini ve kentleşmeyi ancak bölgesel olarak açıklayabildiklerini göstermiştir. Buna ek olarak yeni arkeolojik bulguların, daha önceden ihmal edilmiş bazı savları yeniden gündeme getirebileceği ve genel kabul gören yaklaşımları çürütebileceği ortaya konulmuştur. Çalışmada incelenen temel yaklaşımların bütüncül bir şekilde değerlendirilmesinin, kentlerin kökenine yönelik daha kapsamlı bir çerçeve sunabileceği de tartışılmıştır. Bununla birlikte mevcut arkeolojik bulgular ve akademik araştırmalar çerçevesinde “kentler nasıl ortaya çıktı?” sorusuna tek ve genel bir yanıt verilemeyeceği vurgulanmıştır.
Self-portrait of a Stranger: Self-face Representation and Interoception in Depersonalization Experiences
Authors: Maister Lara , Ciaunica Anna
Published: January 2024

Depersonalization is a condition that makes people feel detached from one’s self, body and others. The representation of one’s own face is a salient bodily aspect of self-awareness and identity, and empirical evidence suggests that individuals with depersonalization disorder experience disrupted perception of their faces when viewing themselves in photographs or in the mirror, which has been corroborated by first-person reports. However, no study had yet explored the state of long-term self-face representations stored in visual memory in the context of depersonalization. By visualising how individuals saw themselves “in the mind’s eye”, this study provides the first empirical evidence for a relationship between depersonalization symptoms and impairments in self-face representation. Individuals reporting more frequent and intense depersonalization symptoms had lower self-face representation accuracy, but somewhat counterintuitively, also higher precision and informational content of this representation. These results suggested that individuals with high depersonalization were representing a distinct, but inaccurate, facial identity as themselves. The self-face representations of high-depersonalization participants were rated as visibly more emotionless and younger in appearance than those of low-depersonalisation participants, according to independent raters. These features were found to be specifically related to aspects of depersonalization symptomatology related to anomalous memory experiences. Finally, an intriguing role of interoceptive sensibility was revealed in both self-face representational accuracy and in depersonalization symptoms. These novel results highlight the link between interoceptive and exteroceptive bodily self-awareness and memory processes as important in those individuals who experience distressing feelings of being detached from one’s self, body and the world.

Authors: Amgai Asmita , Adhikari Bishnu Bilas , Shrestha Jiban
Published: January 2024

Acidic soil generally has lower availability of phosphorus. Grain legumes respond positively to higher levels of phosphorus in acidic soil. Seed priming also enhances growth of the crops by activating various metabolic processes in plants. A field experiment was carried out to determine the influence of seed priming and phosphorus levels on growth and productivity of cowpea at Bhojad, Chitwan, Nepal. The experiment plot was laid out in two factorial randomized complete block design with three replications and the planting was done in spring season of 2022. The treatment consisted of two levels of seed priming (no priming and priming with 0.2 % Ca (NO3)2 for 24 hours) and four levels of P2O5 (20,30,40 and 60 kg ha-1). The variations in different parameters of cowpea due to seed priming were significant (P < 0.05). Primed seed produced the highest grain yield (1.25 t ha-1), which was followed by non-primed seeds (1.16 t ha-1). Similar significant (p<0.001) differences in yield and yield-attributing (no. of grains/pods, test weight, biological yield, grain yield and harvest index) traits were found at different levels of  P2O5, with the highest grain yield (1.44 t ha-1) was obtained when applied with  40 kg P2O5 ha-1. Significant (p<0.001) variations in grain yield were found as a result of the interaction between priming and P2O5 levels. The combination of priming and 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 produced the highest grain yield (1.51 t ha-1). The results showed that the use of primed seed with 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 would be beneficial for the farmers in the Terai region of Nepal.

Published: January 2024

Optimum nitrogen application has been a major challenge to enhance agricultural productivity and sustainability in rice cultivation of Nepal. Nitrogen fertilizer must be applied only when necessary and must be based on the crop’s nitrogen requirement. Losses of nitrogen from rice field can cause air pollutant production, global warming and climate change. Leaf Color Chart (LCC) poses potential climate smart practice in rice field. The use of LCC is a low cost and viable method for managing nitrogen in real time, enhancing the nitrogen use efficiency. To demonstrate the effectiveness of LCC based urea application for nitrogen management in rice, a field experiment was conducted at Masala Bali Bikash Kendra, Panchkhal from June to November, 2022. Variety selected for field experimentation was Makawanpur-1. The experiment compared government-recommended urea application with LCC-based application for which field was divided into two equal plots (300 sq m). Morphological growth was measured at different stages of rice and yield was taken at maturity. In rice, LCC-based urea application led to taller plants (128.5 cm) compared to blanket urea application (115.56 cm) at harvest. LCC-based urea application also had 34% more leaves (126) and 54.5% higher effective tiller count (17). Despite the same rate of nitrogen application, yield was 35% higher in LCC based practice (4694.73 kg ha-1) than government recommended practice. Real time nitrogen application in splits based on LCC management led to better plant growth and yield, while fixed-time nitrogen application regardless of crop need in conventional blanket application resulted in nitrogen loss and lower yield. Considering the effect of nitrogen application through LCC management on rice productivity, it's clear that LCC offers valuable chances to enhance nitrogen use efficiency, rice yield, and farmers' profits.

Adolescent Behaviour and Issues of Generation Gap
Authors: P.M. Suresh Kumar
Published: January 2024

When applied to humans, the term generation indicates a certain segment of the population as distinguishable from certain other segments at any given time. It denotes a discontinuity between one segment and another. The discontinuity is about their values, beliefs, ideology, outlook, and worldview. The effect of it in a combine usually contributes to a gap between generations. Such dissimilarity in thinking and behavior felt through age differences is usually referred to as the generation gap. Broadly speaking youngsters constitute one generation while parents constitute another generation, and those of their parents form another generation. Changes in the material and social environment caused due to advancements in science and technology, corresponding changes in living conditions, educational advancement, institutional reforms, political structures, changing laws and practices, etc. contribute to this differential thinking and perception leading to a gap between generations. The generation gap is an intellectual, social, and psychological divide between young and old populations over time. Adolescence is a stage in life characterized by developmental changes where young people are slowly empowered to take on an adult life. This age represents a crisis period in life caught between dependence and independence in varying degrees. The age is also characterized by a tendency to revolt and search for new ideas. The generation gap is most noticeable to evolve at this point. It is universal. It exists in all cultures and societies. It has implications in the study of change. This attempt is intended to explore the behavior of the emerging generation in their adolescence and to examine how it contributes to building a generation gap.

Herman Daly’s Great Debates
Authors: Victor Peter A.
Published: January 2024

Early in his long career, Herman Daly became disillusioned with the priority given to the pursuit of economic growth, especially by rich countries. Instead, he argued for an equitable, efficient, steady-state economy that could be sustained indefinitely on a finite planet. Accordingly, he made proposals relating to human well-being, measuring the economy, population, money and banking, globalization and trade, and for rethinking economics in general, learning from the life sciences and making economics consistent with the fundamental laws of physics.

Daly was eager to discuss and debate his ideas with his economist peers, seeking reasons why he might be wrong and making the necessary corrections. This proved much harder to achieve than he anticipated, though he received numerous international awards for his work and was very influential, especially beyond the confines of mainstream economics.

However, on several occasions Daly did engage in debates in the academic literature with some very distinguished economists. These included his mentor, Nicholas Georgescu-Roegen, on the longevity of a steady-state economy, recipients of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences Robert Solow and Joseph Stiglitz, on limits to growth, and Kenneth Arrow on overconsumption. With the passage of time, these and his other debates described in this commentary have become increasingly relevant because the excessive environmental pressures that so concerned Daly are greater than ever and rising. And although Daly’s frame of reference was typically national and global, lessons can also be learned from the debates that relate to sub-national regions and cities.

Published: January 2024

Objective: To investigate the association between periodontal pathogens and periodontal status among adolescents in Kunming City.Material and Methods: A total of 560 adolescents from five high schools within five urban districts in Kunming participated in this study. Clinical periodontal examination was assessed, and the levels of Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. actinomycetemcomitans), Prevotella intermedia (P. intermedia), and Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) in saliva samples were examined using a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The relationship between periodontal pathogens and the severity of periodontal disease was investigated using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: The presence of P. gingivalis, A. actinomycetemcomitans, and P. intermedia was positively correlated with the extent of probing depth, clinical attachment level (CAL), and bleeding on probing. P. gingivalis and A. actinomycetemcomitans were detected at approximately 55-58% among adolescents with healthy periodontal status. P. gingivalis and A. actinomycetemcomitans were detected in all adolescents diagnosed with periodontitis (stage I or II), which was an increased number compared to healthy adolescents. It was found that P. gingivalis (odd ratio (OR)=7.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.77-13.11) and A. actinomycetemcomitans (OR=5.37, 95% CI 2.73-10.57) were strongly associated with stage II periodontitis. F. nucleatum had no significant relationship with the occurrence of gingivitis and periodontitis.Conclusion: P. gingivalis, A. actinomycetemcomitans, and P. intermedia are important microbiological risk factors for periodontal diseases in adolescents.

Published: January 2024

Судова влада відіграє вирішальну роль у забезпеченні демократії в Україні шляхом захисту прав людини та запобігання зловживанню законодавчою та виконавчою владою. Пріоритет демократичної держави полягає у гарантуванні прав та свобод громадян, що є основою функціонування держави. Судова влада є важливим гарантом захисту прав людини та вирішення правових конфліктів. Конституційний Суд, Вищий антикорупційний суд, Вищий суд з питань інтелектуальної власності та загальні суди відіграють ключову роль у цьому процесі, проте сучасний стан судової системи в Україні супроводжується низькою довірою громадян, проблемами з матеріально-технічним забезпеченням та затримками у розгляді справ. Процес судової реформи, який триває в Україні, має вирішальне значення для демократії, проте непослідовність у реалізації реформ призвели до недосконалості системи правосуддя. Невід’ємною частиною демократичної держави є ефективна та незалежна судова система, яка гарантує захист прав, свобод та законних інтересів людини та громадянина. Взаємозв’язок між розвитком судової системи та демократизацією створює передумови для підсилення ролі судової влади та забезпечення гарантій незалежної, безпристрасної та професійної системи правосуддя. Судова реформа є пріоритетним напрямом у законотворчому процесі та державотворенні в Україні.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INSULIN RESISTANCE, ADIPOKINES, LIPIDS AND LOW-GRADE INFLAMMATION IN PATIENTS WITH CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE TREATED BY STATINS
Authors: Maksymets T.A , Sklyarova H.E.
Published: January 2024

Background. Hypolipidemic and hypotensive therapy enables to improve prognosis and decrease the risk of cardiovascular pathologies, however, an intensive regimen of prescribing statins for patients with arterial hypertension (AH) combined with obesity can promote development of hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance (IR), which are predictors of type 2 diabetes mellitus development.

Aim: To investigate the relationship between insulin resistance, adipokines, lipids and low-grade inflammation in patients with cardiovascular disease treated by statins.

Materials and methods: 81 patients with overweight and/or obesity and AH or combination of AH and CAD were involved. Patients’ age ranged from 35 to 79 years, among them there were 51 males and 30 females. ACE inhibitors and ARBs, diuretics were used for treatment of AH; atorvastatin was prescribed orally in the dose 20 mg or 40 mg per day permanently as hypolipidemic therapy.

Lipid spectrum, biochemical indices and glycated hemoglobin were determined according to common techniques on an analyzer “BioSystems” (Spain) using original kits of reagents. Concentration of insulin and hsCRP were determined on immunochemoluminescent analyzer “Immulite 2000” (Siemens, Germany). Insulin resistance index was calculated by the formula:

НОМA-IR=fasting insulin (mcIU/ml)*fasting glucose(mmol/L)/22.5

In НОМA-IR value > 2.77, patients were considered insulin resistant. 

Leptin was measured using an ELISA kit DRG (USA). Adiponectin was quantified using the ELISA kit Mediagnost (Germany).

Results. It has been revealed in our investigation that body mass index, the level of systolic blood pressure, triglycerides, highly sensitive C-reactive protein and leptin were reliably higher in patients with IR, whereas adiponectin level was lower. These associations are confirmed by the results of studying correlations between IR index, adipokines, anthropometric and biochemical parameters. Thus, thorough evaluation of carbohydrate and adipokine profile in patients with cardiovascular pathology combined with obesity, who are subjected to hypolipidemic therapy, is an important factor in preventing type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Conclusion. Assessment of the risk of statin-induced diabetes mellitus is important for determining intensity of statin therapy, namely, presence of insulin resistance, levels of hsCRP and adipokines should be considered at the beginning and during treatment.
RISK FACTORS OF SEVERE PERITONITIS IN SURGICAL PATIENTS
Authors: Karol I.V. , Bilyaeva O.O.
Published: January 2024

Background. Radical changes in clinical practice along with the introduction of new surgical interventions and the new concept of precision medicine justify the need to update the traditional scales for assessing the condition of patients with peritonitis.

Aim: to establish risk factors for the development of peritonitis in patients who were operated on for acute diseases of the abdominal cavity.

Material and methods. The study involved 139 patients who were operated on for acute diseases of the abdominal cavity, among whom 71 had acute appendicitis, 51 had acute cholecystitis, 10 had a perforated stomach or duodenal ulcer, others had perforation of a tumor or small intestine, a pinched hernia, cryptogenic peritonitis. Depending on the number of points on the modified APACHE II scale, patients were divided into two groups: 1st group - 1-3 points (63 people, 45.3%) and 2nd group - 4 or more points (76 people, 54.7%).Statistical processing of the research results was carried out using the EZR v.1.54 program (graphical user interface for R statistical software version 4.0.3, R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria).

Results. Comparison of study groups showed that the more severe course of peritonitis was more common in men, had a greater prevalence, fibrous and purulent nature of the exudate, and was more often in the toxic stage. Patients of the second group were 6.5 years older (p=0.029), stayed longer in the hospital (by 2 days; p=0.002) and had a longer duration of surgery (by 25 minutes; p<0.001), a higher body temperature during hospitalization (by 0.4oC; p=0.008), which normalized one day later (p<0.001), as well as a lower ptrothrombin index (PTI) with higher values of international normalized ratio (INR) and prothrombin time (p<0.05), higher leukocytosis (p<0.001) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (p=0.042) in comparison with the patients of the first group. Univariante regression analysis confirmed a positive effect on the risk of severe peritonitis of age, male gender, body temperature, pulse rate, EMN, and leukocytosis, and a negative effect of PTI value.

Conclusion. The following risk factors for severe peritonitis were identified: male sex and age, higher temperature at hospitalization and heart rate, higher PTI and INR, as well as higher leukocytosis.
THE PROBLEM OF PREDICTING THE OCCURRENCE OF ACUTE TOXIC EFFECTS, INCLUDING SKIN DISEASES, OF AGRICULTURAL WORKERS BEFORE APPLYING INSECTICIDES
Authors: Bardov H.P. , Vavrinevych О.P. О.P.
Published: January 2024

Background. It has been proven that the using of pesticides can lead  to the human health problems. Possible way of exposure: inhalation, transdermal or oral. The danger of using pesticides is manifested by acute or chronic effects. There is a possibility of skin damage by pesticides upon direct contact. Aim: hygienic assessment of the occurrence of acute toxic effects, including skin diseases, among agricultural workers before applying insecticides for agricultural crops protection. Materials and methods. Prediction of the occurrence of acute toxic effects was carried out by the coefficient of possible of inhalation poisoning (CPIP) and the coefficient of selective action of the pesticide in case of inhalation and dermal exposure (CSAing., CSAd.). Statistical analysis of the obtained results was carried out using the IBM SPSS Statistics Base v.22 license package and the MS Excel program (2000). Results. The occurrence of acute inhalation poisoning, as well as health problem caused by percutaneous exposure of pesticides, has low possibilities. The investigated groups of insecticides belong to low-hazard pesticides according to SSanRN 8.8.1.002-98. CSAing. indicators of analyzed pesticide formulations are higher then CSAd. values, except for RembekDuo (CSAd > CSAing, p>0.125). The obtained results showed that almost all analyzed insecticide formulations are more dangerous with dermal exposure. Conclusion. It was established that the occurrence of acute inhalation poisonings, as well as health problem caused by percutaneous exposure to pesticides has low possibilities according results of our own research and comparative analysis.

Published: January 2024

Background. Mini-invasive percutaneous echo-controlled puncture drainage interventions have certain limitations in case of location of local complications of acute pancreatitis of the right and central-right type due to the high risk of iatrogenic injuries as a result of possible uncontrolled advancement of the working part of the device.

Aim: to improve the results of surgical treatment of patients with acute pancreatitis through the introduction of improved techniques of miniinvasive percutaneous echo-controlled interventions in complicated course of the disease.

Materials and methods. The study was based on the results of examination of 187 patients with severe acute pancreatitis, who were divided into two groups: a comparison group – patients who used traditional methods of examination and treatment (n=92) and the main group – patients who used improved surgical tactics (n =95). To assess the effectiveness of surgical tactics in the studied groups, a comparative analysis of the applied methods, the frequency of postoperative complications, mortality, and the duration of hospitalization was carried out.

Results. The introduction of improved miniinvasive percutaneous echo-controlled surgical interventions expanded the possibilities of their use, including in the localization of infected local complications of the right and central-right type, and probably increased their effectiveness by 41.8% (p=0.02). A comparative analysis of the duration of inpatient treatment in the studied groups revealed a probable reduction in the terms of hospitalization of patients in the main group by 14.7 days (р=0.0008), of which in the intensive care unit – by 4.7 days (р<0.0001).

Conclusion. The use of improved methods of diagnosis and treatment in patients of the main group made it possible to reliably reduce the frequency of postoperative complications by 28% (p=0.003) and overall postoperative mortality by 27.7% (p=0.005).
Somatic Arts and Liveable Futures: (Re-) Embodying Ecological Connections
Authors: Rufo Raffaele
Published: January 2024

The article explores the role of the somatic arts in challenging the culture of separateness between humans and nature typical of Anthropocentrism. My aim is to enhance the debate on how to grow liveable futures in the face of ecological disaster. I will reflect on the possibility to re-activate our eco-consciousness through embodied practices of interconnectedness with nonhuman living beings and systems. I will discuss the cultural conditions shaping the growing field of eco-somatic practices and evaluate their political implications as acts of caring, collaboration, and critical thinking. I will foreground the importance of awakening the neurobiological memory of the body and grieving for anthropogenic ecological losses. Natasha Myers’ concept of ‘Planthroposcene’ will be mobilised as an example of how we can envision the (re-) emergence of embodied ways of ‘conspiring’ with other forms of life. Throughout the article, the reader will be invited to engage with some somatic interactive processes that can shift our apocalyptic perception of ecological crises.
Capoeira: de tipo penal à prática socioeducativa no Brasil – ensaio teórico
Authors: Souza Walber Gonçalves de
Published: January 2024

Ao estudarmos a História do Brasil percebe-se a influência direta, da migração dos povos africanos, com o início do tráfico negreiro, fato decisivo na formação do povo brasileiro, portanto, na formação cultural daquilo que se tornou nação brasileira. Entre essas influências está a prática da Capoeira. Todavia, essa prática, criada por alguns africanos que vieram, forçadamente, para o Brasil, em certo momento histórico foi tipicamente criminalizada e durante décadas proibida de ser praticada. Entretanto, com a vanguarda da revisão histórica e valorização dos Direitos Humanos, a Capoeira torna-se um importante patrimônio cultural do povo brasileiro e que passa a ser utilizada como um método socioeducativo. Esse artigo, pretende fomentar a reflexão sobre essa questão: a Capoeira que de delito torna-se uma prática educativa de valorização cultural.
Tatters & the Selvage Edge: A Palimpsestic Consideration of H.D.'s Poetics
Authors: Nguyen Hoa
Published: January 2024

H.D.’s poems extend memory, life experience, and archetypes inside of the metaphor of palimpsest. Her translations of Sappho re-worked the remnants of Sappho’s lines, sometimes addressing the smallest lines in the original. The poem that results from her approach to Fragment 113—“Neither honey nor bee for me”—extend from it not as translation but as a trans-creation, both literalizing the loss of the original and creating a third possibility.

While H.D.’s poems made use of masks and speakers as/of characters from ancient Greece, she also translated Sappho—“re-workings” of her fragments from ancient Greek. 

Like layers of wallpaper, parts solid and covered, parts in decay and tattered, the incompletion of the palimpsest become strategy to read, understand, and re-represent it to literalize the partial story, the story as and of fractures, and the multiplicity of experience.
"Putting my life into a story"
Authors: Lilly Jenn
Published: January 2024

This article describes the development, implementation, and evaluation of a digital narrative intervention that combined participatory video (PV) and narrative therapy practices to engage Latinx immigrant young people in processes of personal and societal change. Drawing on ethnographic field notes, process recordings, audio recordings of intervention implementation, and focus group data, this program evaluation offers empirical evidence of the impacts of this innovative, digital narrative intervention on Latinx immigrant young people (ages 18-24) in New Orleans. A constructivist grounded theory approach to data analysis resulted in three main themes: critical reframing, Latinx and immigrant pride, and media literacy. This study unites PV and narrative therapy as complementary approaches to working with marginalized groups to share their stories, suggesting that the combination of these two storytelling practices resulted in several positive outcomes for participants.

Drumstick (Moringa oleifera) leaves, locally known as Sajna, have enormous nutritional and medicinal benefits. The study was carried out to formulate drumstick-based functional teas with the aimed to explore alternative uses of Sajna leaves by incorporating with other natural ingredients ginger (Zingiber officinale), holy basil (Ocimum sanctum), lemon grass (Cymbopogon schoenanthus) and stevia (Stevia rebaudiana) leaves. Proximate analysis of all the formulated herbal teas was carried out and the sensory qualities were evaluated by the eleven member taste panels. We used a nine-point hedonic scale for sample’s appearance, texture, flavor, smoothness, smell, color, aesthetic appeal and comprehensive parameters of taste. This study found higher amount of nutrient contents in dried drumstick leaves than the fresh one. In acceptability test regarding the appearance, it was seen that sample-3 was liked very much (>8) by the panel members. It also showed that sample-3 tea (Blended with all other ingredients including lemongrass and stevia) obtained the highest score (8.17 ± 0.55) on the color. On the other hand, in the acceptability test of smell and flavor, it was observed that sample- 3 was liked moderately whereas sample 1 was not liked or disliked by the judges. In acceptability test of smoothness and texture, it was seen from the Hedonic scale points that sample-3 was liked very much (8.57) and moderately liked (>7) by the judges respectively. Based on sensory evaluation, it was concluded that drumstick-based functional tea was acceptable for further consumption, distribution and marketing.

Interrogating the concept of vulnerability in social research ethics
Authors: Traianou Anna , Hammersley Martyn
Published: January 2024

This paper examines the concept of vulnerability in the context of social research ethics. An ambiguity is noted in use of this term: it may refer to an incapacity to provide informed consent to participate in a research project, or it may imply heightened susceptibility to the risk of harm. It is pointed out that vulnerability is a matter of degree, and that there are different sources and types of harm, which must be taken into account in any judgment about whether additional precautions are required to protect particular categories of research participants. Furthermore, such judgments must be sensitive to the particular context in which research is taking place. This is one of several considerations that raise questions about the desirability of the sort of pre-emptive ethical regulation that has become institutionalized in many countries over the past few decades, a form that is more appropriate to medical rather than to social research. However, this is not to deny that a concern with the vulnerability of research participants is necessary on the part of social researchers. Furthermore, it must be recognized that researchers themselves may be vulnerable to harm in the research process. Finally, some discussion is provided of the way in which a concern with vulnerability can conflict with other considerations that researchers need to take into account in doing their work. The key point is that vulnerability is a complex and controversial concept, and it requires careful handling in thinking about social research ethics.
