The role of agriculture as a source of food for the population and raw materials for industrial and processing enterprises can hardly be overestimated. Its efficiency determines the living conditions and livelihoods of the population of rural areas of the region. Currently, a large number of federal and regional programs are being implemented in the industry. Financial resources from various sources were involved. Problems and ways to solve them. However, all this is a dilapidated superstructure on the foundation, which in agriculture are: effective crop rotation, soil fertility, land reclamation and lease relations, the state of which today requires major (not patching) repairs. The purpose and objective of the study is to prepare a package of methodological materials to ensure the development and implementation of the "Target program for providing the population with food". Research methodology: monitoring and comparative analysis. Research results. The article presents the methods, methodological manuals and recommendations developed by the authors, the implementation of which will allow the heads of municipalities and economic entities of the region to develop and implement a "Target program for providing the population with food" for a municipal order, using more advanced lease relations, innovative forms of business and corporate management.

The article discusses the problem of administrative-territorial division (ATD) of one of the national republics of the North Caucasus within Russia – the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic (KBR). It is argued that the modern ADT of the republic is a legacy of Russia's colonial policy in the North Caucasus in the 19th century and the command and administrative system of the Soviet period in the 20th century. The results of the study indicate that by the end of the twentieth century, due to the redistribution of the population and integration processes, the ethnic map of KBR came into conflict with the ATD on an ethno-political basis. A new version of the ATD of the region based on the basin principle has been proposed and justified, removing the interethnic contradictions generated by the previous division and guaranteeing the sustainable development of the republic

Bu çalışma Roald Dahl’ın Charlie’nin Çikolata Fabrikası adlı eseri ile Tim Burton’ın aynı adlı film uyarlamasını yeniden yazım ve yerelleştirme kuramları bağlamında karşılaştırmalı ele almayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu vesileyle her iki eserdeki tema, motif ve simgeler sembolik açılımları ile değerlendirildiğinde kapitalist bir sistem eleştirisinin varlığı her iki eserde de tespit edilmiştir. Yapılan değerlendirilme sonucunda eserlerin kurmaca bireylerin kapitalist etkenler sonucunda davranışlarının sığlaşmasına, değer yargılarının zarar görmesine, hırs ve şiddet eğilimi geliştiren kişiliklerine vurgu yaptığı görülmüştür. Film uyarlamasının bir tür çeviri edimi olduğu iddiasındaki bu çalışma bu süreçte yerelleştirme çabalarının da sergilendiğini ileri sürmektedir. Yönetmen Burton’ın sinematik tercihleri doğrultusunda film erek kültürün özellikleri çerçevesinde şekillendirilmiştir. Yeniden yazım sonucunda erek kültüre sunulan film uyarlamasının Amerikan toplumunun kozmopolit yapısından izler taşıyarak milliyet temelli gösterge seçimleri kullanıldığı fark edilmiştir. Diğer yandan yeniden yazım sonucunda oluşturulan edebi etkinin güncel okuma biçimi olan psikanalitik çözümleme doğrultusunda yapılmasının kaynak eserin konumunu tekrardan sağlamlaştırdığı anlaşılmıştır. Yeniden yazılan bir eser söylem üretmenin önemli bir aracı olarak küresel hamilik aktörlerinin elinde şekillenir. Böylece ana akım edebiyat söz konusu hamilik üzerinden kendini tekrardan konumlandırmış olur.
The views of Russian economists on Western sanctions against Russia
Authors: Larsen Kseniia Skogstad
Published: June 2021

In March 2014, in response to Russia’s annexation of Crimea and military actions in Eastern Ukraine, the European Council decided to implement sanctions against Russia. The EU criticized Russia’s actions against Ukraine’s sovereignty and independence. In response to the EU’s sanctions, in August 2014 Russia introduced a food embargo on agricultural products from Western countries. The most frequently discussed topic regarding these sanctions is their effectiveness and their impact on the Russian economy. In other words, the experts aimed to identify evidence that Western sanctions do work against Russia and to estimate their effect on the Russian economy. This article discusses the views of Russian economists and political analysts on Western sanctions against Russia. The goal of the article is to present the opinions, analyses, and forecasts of leading Russian experts living in Russia and abroad and who are working for the government and/or in the academic field. The views of several experts were investigated regarding the situation resulting immediately after the imposing of sanctions and regarding perspectives of future development in Russia under the influence of sanctions. This article addresses the impact of some of these Western sanctions on different economic sectors and discusses the overall effect of sanctions on the Russian economy. In particular, the article covers the opinions of Russian economists and political experts concerning financial sanctions and its impact on the Russian banking sector; impact on direct foreign investments; impact on economic and political stability; and the effect from the introduction of Russian agricultural embargo on Western import. One section is focused on the views of economists on effectiveness of sanctions as political tool, and the last section summarizes the main political and economic effects of sanctions on Russia since 2014.

CINDERELLA COMPLEX CREATED THROUGH MALE DOMINANCE IN SHAKESPEAREAN CONTEXT: THE TAMING OF THE SHREW
Authors: ÖZATA Cüneyt
Published: June 2021

Making a great many contributions to theatre itself, William Shakespeare has widely been acknowledged as the father of English language and literature as well as the greatest playwright in English history. Apart from his poems and sonnets, he produced several influential and well-known plays standing for the customs and lifestyle of Elizabethan age. His basic motif to create such works seems to shed light on the era, probably to criticize the issues which he postulated as flaws of the society. Even in his comedies, Shakespeare blended comic elements with critical messages as in The Taming of the Shrew (1623) ranking among the most debatable comedies while inholding some serious subject matters related to male hegemony in his age. In this present study, this play is analysed through the concept ‘Cinderella Complex’ explicated by Colette Dowling. Specifically, the shocking transformation of the ‘shrewish’ Katherina is detailed with regard to this concept. The findings are presented in the conclusion section of the study.

Published: June 2021

Experiences from past earthquake disasters clearly shows that the ground motion was highly responsible for majority of property and life loss. Excessive damage was occurred to pile supported bridges, towers, chimneys, high rise structures, etc among the collapsed structures. A numerical study is carried out to understand the dynamic soil structure interaction of a high rise structure in a visco elastic half space in the presence of nearby pile supported structures. For understanding the seismic response of group of high rise structures supported on pile foundations a two dimensional study is carried. Framed structures which are assumed from the linear structures of different dynamic characteristics are supported on group of piles. Some studies related to group effect of structures supported on piles are considered like group of two identical structures, group of three identical structures and group of three different structures, secondly the effect of variability in structure height is considered like 5 storey structure, 10 storey structure and 15 storey structure and the third one in which the effect of variability in structure shape is considered. Above all case the effect of structure soil structure interaction on seismic response is compared with fixed base response.

Published: June 2021

Fresh water generator is one of the most important auxiliary aircraft on ships to produce fresh water. The efficient use of fresh water can extend the life of the fresh water generator and save electricity usage. Efficient use of fresh water can be done by remotely monitoring the level of fresh water in the tank in real time.The system for knowing the water level in real time is built with an ultrasonic sensor to transmit data to the Wemos in the form of height data. Wemos converts freshwater level data into the volume of water in the tank. The volume and water level data is then displayed on the LCD and the Wemos sends data on the volume of fresh water to the internet in the form of a website with a design that is easy to understand (user friendly) and the website can be accessed anywhere. It can be seen that the system can work properly because the highest error reading is only 5%, namely in 4 liters with a tilt position og 20 right . Meanwhile, the biggest difference between sendor readings and real when testing 5 liters with a slope of 30 to the right is 0.23 liters. The best average result occur when testing flat conutions.

The purpose of this study is to find out the cadets’ level of self-confidence category in delivering marine communication on board and the causes of the level of the self-confidence. The research uses descriptive qualitative design. The participants of the research is deck and engine cadets semester IV from Politeknik Ilmu Pelayaran Makassar who were scheduled for practicing on the training ship. The variable of this study is the cadets’ self-confidence in delivering marine communication on board simulation. The data are collected through questionnaire, observational checklist and interview related to self-confidence of the cadets in delivering marine communication on board Training Ship Sultan Hasanuddin. The data from questionnaires were analyzed by scoring the positive and negative statement into Likert’s scale (strongly agree, agree, undecided, disagree, strongly disagree) and classified the level of sel-confidence by the score scale to determine The High Self-Confidence, Moderate Self-Confidence, and Low Self-Confidence. The results of the study show that there are three levels of cadets’ self-confidence in delivering marine communication on board simulation, they are categorized as high, moderate and low self-confidence. The cadets high self-confidence is caused by the feeling of excited to do simulation. Moderate self-confidence of cadets is caused by high motivation in English, but could not engage the indicators of people with self-confidence. However, Low self-confidence of cadets are caused by mispronunciation and unfamiliarity situation on board.

Basically burying is burying the body or corpse in the ground. The purpose of burying is to protect the corpse from physical reproach and covering the personal disgrace of the corpse, in addition to avoiding the process of decomposition that spread the smell and the bacteria or viruses from the corpse’s decomposition process. The burial process by throwing corpse into the sea is the last option taken by the leadership onboard. With various considerations.Colonialism and war were the two main reasons for burial or burial into the sea in the 19th century. The ILO Seafarer's Service Regulations on sea sailing are carried out for several reasons including: ships sailing in international waters; ABK has been dead for more than 24 hours or the death is due to infectious diseases; several cases of dumping bodies into the sea were carried out because there were no facilities for handling bodies on board. the ship is unable to store the bodies for hygiene reasons. Refrigerator is one of device that can be holded decomposition process with temperature at + 4 ℃ and -20 ℃. The company must be responsible for the investigation process and provide confirmation of the cause of death of the crew's ship through autopsy.

Antimicrobial Sensitivity Patterns of Enteric Fever in Pakistan: A Comparison of Years 2009 and 2019
Authors: Saleem Khurram , Zafar Sana , Rashid Aqeela
Published: June 2021

Background

Pakistan is one of the endemic regions for typhoid fever and paratyphoid fever. This study aimed to identify the evolving antimicrobial sensitivity patterns of Salmonella species causing enteric fever and its implications on the clinical prescribing of antimicrobials.

Methods

This was a retrospective descriptive study conducted at a university hospital. Antimicrobial resistance was defined in terms of non-resistant, multidrug resistant (MDR) and extended drug resistant (XDR) as per WHO guidance. Data were collected from the years 2009 and 2019. Chi squared was applied to test for statistical significance (p < 0.05).

Results

A total of 200 patients (100 from 2009 and 100 from 2019) were included in the study. Non-resistant enteric fever cases reduced from 100% in 2009 to 44% in 2019, whereas the MDR and XDR enteric fever cases increased to 16% and 40%, respectively (p < 0.05). Cross tabulation carried out for individual drugs showed an independent rise in the sensitivities of individual first-line antimicrobials.

Conclusion

Antimicrobial resistant enteric fever has become a big challenge for Pakistan. The choice of antibiotic prescription has narrowed down to broader spectrum antimicrobials making it difficult to treat, leading to increased morbidity and mortality.
Acute Pancreatitis Secondary to Hypertriglyceridaemia Caused by Undiagnosed Type 2 Diabetes
Authors: Khaqan Arous , Munir Atif , Haider Miqdad
Published: June 2021

In some patients undiagnosed diabetes may present with metabolic complications of diabetes as their initial presentation. Suboptimal glycaemic control in diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes can cause hypertriglyceridaemia which can cause pancreatitis. In patients presenting with pancreatitis where common causes of pancreatitis are excluded hypertriglyceridaemia should be considered as a cause and hence their lipid profile should be evaluated. If hypertriglyceridaemia is confirmed, then such a patient should be screened for diabetes. We present three cases presenting to hospital with pancreatitis secondary to hypertriglyceridaemia. Hypertriglyceridaemia in all three were secondary to undiagnosed and uncontrolled type 2 diabetes. Early treatment of hypertriglyceridaemia can prevent morbidity and mortality. Diagnosing type 2 diabetes in this context can result in optimisation of glycaemic control, and hence improve hypertriglyceridaemia and reduce the risk of recurrent attacks of pancreatitis.
Isolated Oculomotor Nerve Palsy Secondary to Acute Sinusitis
Authors: Larcombe Stephanie Jade , Street Duncan , Wright Benjamin
Published: June 2021

Sinusitis is a common condition, but only very rarely accompanied by isolated cranial nerve palsies. We describe a case of a 64-year-old male with a two-day history of left-sided ptosis associated with one week of nasal congestion and frontal sinus pain. Examination revealed ptosis with left pupil mydriasis. Uncontrasted computed tomography and angiography of the head demonstrated neither intracranial vascular abnormalities nor acute lesions; however, it did show mucosal thickening in the left frontal sinus, ethmoid air cells and left maxillary sinus, indicating potential obstruction of the left ostiomeatal complex. The sinusitis was treated with intranasal steroids, xylomethazoline and nasal douching. The patient reported resolution of all symptoms, including left ptosis, within one week of therapy. This rare case of sinusitis causing ptosis is presented due to its infrequent nature, such that awareness of the differential diagnosis of cranial nerve palsy and complications of sinusitis may be improved.
Design Noir
Authors: Dunne Anthony , Raby Fiona
Published: June 2021

The first book to be published on the work of their partnership (in 2001), Design Noir is the essential primary source for understanding the theoretical and conceptual underpinnings for Dunne & Raby's work.

Consisting of three elements - a 'manifesto' on the possibilities of designing with and for the 'secret life' of electronic objects; notes for an embryonic network of critical designers and, most famously, the presentation of the Placebo Project – a prototype for a critical design poetics enacted around electronic furniture-objects – Design Noir offers an in-depth exploration of one of the most seminal design projects of the last two decades, one that arguably initiated speculating through design in its contemporary forms.

By detailing the logic and character of the objects that were constructed; the involvement of users with these objects over-time, and in the creation of a new kinds of spatially and temporally distributed moments of critique and engagement with things, Design Noir presents the case-study of the Placebo projectas a far more complex and subtler project than is often thought.

As a bold and in many ways unprecedented experiment in design writing and book designing, Design Noir is itself an instance of the speculative propositional design it expounds.
Restorative Cities
Authors: Roe Jenny , McCay Layla
Published: June 2021

Overcrowding, noise and air pollution, long commutes and lack of daylight can take a huge toll on the mental well-being of city-dwellers. With mental healthcare services under increasing pressure, could a better approach to urban design and planning provide a solution? The restrictions faced by city residents around the world during the COVID-19 pandemic has brought home just how much urban design can affect our mental health – and created an imperative to seize this opportunity.

Restorative Cities explores a new way of designing cities, one which places mental health and wellness at the forefront. Establishing a blueprint for urban design for mental health, it examines a range of strategies – from sensory architecture to place-making for creativity and community – and brings a genuinely evidence-based approach that will appeal to designers and planners, health practitioners and researchers alike - and provide compelling insights for anyone who cares about how our surroundings affect us. Written by a psychiatrist and public health specialist, and an environmental psychologist with extensive experience of architectural practice, this much-needed work will prompt debate and inspire built environment students and professionals to think more about the positive potential of their designs for mental well-being.
Hip-Hop Architecture
Authors: Cooke Sekou
Published: June 2021

“This book is not for you. It is not for architectural academic elites. It is not for those who have gentrified our neighborhoods, overly intellectualized the profession, and ignored all contemporary Black theory within the discipline. You have made architecture a symbol of exclusion, oppression, and domination rather than expression, aspiration, and inspiration. This book is not for conformists—Black, White, or other.”

As architecture grapples with its own racist legacy, Hip-Hop Architecture outlines a powerful new manifesto—the voice of the underrepresented, marginalized, and voiceless within the discipline. Exploring the production of spaces, buildings, and urban environments that embody the creative energies in hip-hop, it is a newly expanding design philosophy which sees architecture as a distinct part of hip-hop's cultural expression, and which uses hip-hop as a lens through which to provoke new architectural ideas.

Examining the present and the future of Hip-Hop Architecture, the book also explores its historical antecedents and its theory, placing it in a wider context both within architecture and within Black and African American movements. Throughout, the work is illustrated with inspirational case studies of architectural projects and creative practices, and interspersed with interludes and interviews with key architects, designers, and academics in the field. This is a vital and provocative work that will appeal to architects, designers, students, theorists, and anyone interested in a fresh view of architecture, design, race and culture.

Climate and Capital in the Age of Petroleum
Authors: Diamanti Jeff
Published: June 2021

Jeff Diamanti describes the destructive relationship between climate and capital through the exponential growth of the petroleum industry over the last 40 years. Building on key insights in the environmental and energy humanities, Diamanti introduces the concept of the ‘terminal landscape’ as a site of storage, transformation and transition, essential to critical ecology in the 21st century.

Climate and Capital in the Age of Petroleum presents these scenes of transformation as sites through which post-industrial capitalism distributes fossil fuels into the world. Diamanti uses this concept to redefine the post-industrial landscape by revealing the global flows of exchange and storage that precede the distribution of fossil fuels into the world as social form. Advancing a new media theory of energy, fossil fuels and other finite resources become new types of distributable media. Through this line of thinking, the book makes solid connections between media technologies and energy cultures that help to shape a radical critique of the current energy infrastructure that characterises global capitalism.

Arguing that this infrastructure rests on millennia of compact matter, centuries of colonial violence, and decades of technological development, Diamanti’s analysis deepens our understanding of the environment as a ‘terminal landscape’ through case studies of oil companies, countries, artworks, and historical events. Using his under-examined typology of global energy further theorises and politicises the climate crisis for scholars and activists alike.
Fertile Visions
Authors: Carruthers Anne
Published: June 2021

Fertile Visions conceptualises the uterus as a narrative space so that the female reproductive body can be understood beyond the constraints of a gendered analysis. Unravelling pregnancy from notions of maternity and mothering demands that we think differently about narratives of reproduction. This is crucial in the current global political climate wherein the gender-specificity of pregnancy contributes to how bodies that reproduce are marginalised, controlled, and criminalised. Anne Carruthers demonstrates fascinating and insightful close analyses of films such as Juno, Birth, Ixcanul and Arrival as examples of the uterus as a narrative space. Fertile Visions engages with research on the foetal ultrasound scan as well as phenomenologies, affect and spectatorship in film studies to offer a new way to look, think and analyse pregnancy and the pregnant body in cinema from the Americas.
Secret Selves
Authors: Prickett Stephen
Published: June 2021

Who are we and how do we define our inner selves? In his last work, Professor Stephen Prickett, who was a world authority on Romanticism, presents a literary and cultural exploration of our inner selves – and how we have created and written about them – from the Old Testament to social media.

What he finds is that although our secret, inner, sense of self – what we feel makes us distinctively ‘us’ – seems a natural and permanent part of being human, it is in fact surprisingly new. Whilst confessional religious writings and novels, from Augustine to Jane Austen, or even diaries of 20th-century Holocaust victims, have explored inwards as part of a path to self-discovery, as our knowledge of history, other cultures, the world and the cosmos has developed, our inner space has expanded far beyond any possible personal experience. This development has enhanced our capacity not merely to write about what we have never seen, but even to create fantasies and impossible fictions around them.

Yet our secret selves can also be a source of terror. The fringes of our inner worlds are often porous, ill-defined, and susceptible to frightening forms of external control. Mystics and poets, from Dante to John Henry Newman or Gerard Manley Hopkins, sought God in their secret spaces not least because they feared the ‘abyss beneath.’

From the origin of human consciousness through modern history and into the future, Secret Selves uses literature to consider the profound possibilities and ramifications of our evolving ideas of self.
Judicial Review Handbook
Authors: Fordham The Hon Sir Michael
Published: June 2021

“… an institution for those who practise public law…it has the authority that comes from being compiled by an author of singular distinction”. (Lord Woolf, from the Foreword to the Fifth Edition)

The new edition of this Handbook remains an indispensable source of reference and a guide to the case-law in judicial review. Established as an essential part of the library of any practitioner engaged in public law cases, if offers unrivalled coverage of administrative law, including, but not confined to, the work of the Administrative Court and its procedures. Once again completely revised and up-dated, the seventh edition approximates to a restatement of the law of judicial review, organised around 63 legal principles, each supported by a comprehensive presentation of the sources and an unequalled selection of reported case quotations. It also includes essential procedural rules, forms and guidance issued by the Administrative Court.

As in the previous edition, both the Civil Procedure Rules and Human Rights Act 1998 feature prominently as major influences on the shaping of the case-law. Attention is also given to impact of the Supreme Court. Here Michael Fordham casts an experienced eye over the Court’s work in the area of judicial review, and assesses the signs from a Court that will be one of the key influences in the development of judicial review in the modern era.

The author, a leading member of the English public law bar, and now has been involved in many of the leading judicial review cases in recent years and is the founding editor of the Judicial Review journal.

UNDER BLACK PETE’S SKIN

Dark figures around the nineteenth-century Feast of Saint Nicholas

The Dutch debate surrounding Black Pete (Zwarte Piet) has become deeply polarized. Proponents as well as opponents of the black assistant of Saint Nicholas base their opinions on his assumed origin. While supporters of Black Pete believe that he originated from pre-Christian traditions, the anti-Black Pete camp is convinced he can be traced back to a world of slavery and racism. This article shows that the present figure of Black Pete is a nineteenth-century amalgamation of different types and traditions. This means that Black Pete cannot be reduced to a single, unambiguous meaning. Therefore, the answer to the question concerning his identity and his alleged racist character must be found in his reception rather than his origin.
KEIZER WILHELM II ALS HONDENBEZITTER

EMPEROR WILHELM II AS DOG OWNER

Instrumentalisation of the monarchy in dog breeding debates

Nineteenth century European rulers could not consider hunting or dog ownership a private choice. Regarding the role dog breeding had started to play in society, every decision made by the vips of that time was perceived as a political indication; the contemporary public discussed the choices and commented on them. Various groups and individuals even used them as argument to support their own claims. The article shows on two cases – firstly, the exploitation of Wilhelm II to the advantage of the dachshund lobby and secondly, a conflict between a hunting dog club and the ministry of agriculture – that the Emperor, long before 1918, was losing credit among influential parts of the society, based on new views on nature and animal treatment. Wilhelm’s hunting behaviour was perceived as obsolete and neither the use of the imperial authority as argument aimed at substantiating one’s claims could persuade the state bureaucracy that already oriented itself on scientific and transparent dog breeding policy.

TRUE RELIGION AND STERN MORALITY

A thematic-historical analysis of the sermons of Chief Rabbi Tobias Tal (1847-1898)

The process of integration of the Jewish community in modern Dutch society was accompanied by a change of Jewish homiletics in both content and form. This article presents the case of the Dutch Chief Rabbi Tobias Tal with the aim of showing how Jewish homiletics changed in the second half of the nineteenth century. Based on an analysis of his sermons, this article argues that Tal successfully combined liberal-protestant ideals and homiletical forms with old Jewish thoughts.
EMIGRANTEN ROND HET ACHTER-HUIS VAN ANNE FRANK
Authors: Broek Gertjan
Published: June 2021

MIGRANTS AROUND ANNE FRANK’S ACHTERHUIS

The story of Anne Frank, her family and her companions, hiding from persecution by the Nazi regime, is a well-known and – at a first glance – very Dutch one. The main divide between those in hiding and their helpers was that between being Jewish and being non-Jewish, which in those precarious times was of course the essential ‘divide’ imposed on the people of occupied Europe. But a closer look at the group of people around Anne seen from the perspective of migration and (national) identity produces different dividing lines and insights. Their life stories, converging in that one Amsterdam warehouse, ref lect many aspects of early twentieth-century European history.

LIVING WITH OBJECTS

The European elite of colonial Indonesia, its collections and identification around 1900

Many upper-class migrants from, and to, Dutch colonial Indonesia – often travelling back and forth – collected objects. By analysing the practice of collecting and the meaning these people ascribed to those artefacts, I will provide insight into the way personal, and eventually even collective, identities were formed. The manner in which objects were collected and displayed not only ref lected the self-image of their owners in colonial and Dutch society, but may also have been active inf luences in those processes of (self)identification. The collection of objects, and the meaning ascribed to them, ref lected the unequal power relations within colonial society, and simultaneously, was possible a strategy for marginalised people (such as European women) to liberate themselves from social inequality.

‘COMMON PEOPLE’

Gypsies in European regional fiction

Regional fiction is a genre in which the tension between local and national cultures tends to play an important role. This article explores the representation of a category of characters that seems to escape that binary opposition: gipsies. More specifically, it analyzes six case studies from regional literature produced in Ireland and the Low Countries to find out whether we can speak of a transnational trope. Although the representation of gipsies in the case studies are different in several respects, there are also striking similarities. The most important one is that the gipsies are not just mere outsiders posing a threat to the regional community. Rather, paradoxically, they constitute a model for that local community regarding the preservation and regeneration of its own cultural values.
