The turbulent dynamics of Jupiter’s and Saturn’s weather layers: order out of chaos?
Authors: Read Peter L. , Young Roland M. B. , Kennedy Daniel
Published: July 2020

The weather layers of the gas giant planets, Jupiter and Saturn, comprise the shallow atmospheric layers that are influenced energetically by a combination of incoming solar radiation and localised latent heating of condensates, as well as by upwelling heat from their planetary interiors. They are also the most accessible regions of those planets to direct observations. Recent analyses in Oxford of cloud-tracked winds on Jupiter have demonstrated that kinetic energy is injected into the weather layer at scales comparable to the Rossby radius of deformation and cascades both upscale, mostly into the extra-tropical zonal jets, and downscale to the smallest resolvable scales in Cassini images. The large-scale flow on both Jupiter and Saturn appears to equilibrate towards a state which is close to marginal instability according to Arnol’d’s 2nd stability theorem. This scenario is largely reproduced in a hierarchy of numerical models of giant planet weather layers, including relatively realistic models which seek to predict thermal and dynamical structures using a full set of parameterisations of radiative transfer, interior heat sources and even moist convection. Such models include (amongst others) the Jason GCM, developed in Oxford, which also represents the formation of (energetically passive) clouds of NH3, NH4SH and H2O condensates and the transport of condensable tracers. Recent results show some promise in comparison with observations from the Cassini and Juno missions, but some observed features (such as Jupiter’s Great Red Spot and other compact ovals) are not yet captured spontaneously by most weather layer models. We review recent work in this vein and discuss a number of open questions for future study.

Published: July 2020

Background

Efforts to engage patients as partners in health research have grown and thereby the need for feedback and evaluation. In this pilot evaluation study, we aimed to 1) evaluate patient engagement in health research projects in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, and 2) learn more about how to best monitor and evaluate patient engagement. This paper presents the results of our participatory evaluation study and the lessons learned. The evaluation of the projects was driven by questions patients wanted answered.

Methods

We conducted a formative evaluation of patient engagement in health research projects. Projects spanned a variety of topics, target groups, research designs and methods of patient engagement. Participants included principal investigators (n = 6) and their patient partners (n = 14). Furthermore, graduate students (n = 13) working on their own research projects participated. Participants completed an online survey with closed and open-ended questions about their patient engagement efforts, experiences and preliminary outcomes. Patients were involved as co-investigators in the entire evaluation study. We used qualitative methods to evaluate our participatory process.

Results

The evaluation study results show that most patients and researchers felt prepared and worked together in various phases of the research process. Both groups felt that the insights and comments of patients influenced research decisions. They believed that patient engagement improved the quality and uptake of research. Students felt less prepared and were less satisfied with their patient engagement experience compared to researchers and their patient partners. Involvement of patient co-investigators in this evaluation resulted in learnings, transparency, validation of findings and increased applicability. Challenges were to select evaluation questions relevant to all stakeholders and to adapt evaluation tools to local needs.

Conclusions

Our findings show that researchers, patient partners and students value patient engagement in health research. Capacity building at the supervisor level in academic institutions is needed to better support students. Sufficient time is also needed to permit observable outcomes. Participatory evaluation may increase the relevance and usefulness of information, but it also raises issues such as who defines and designs the content of evaluation tools. A co-creation process is required to develop appropriate monitoring and evaluation strategies.
Transfusion characteristics and hemostatic conditions in octogenarians undergoing emergency surgery for acute aortic dissection: a retrospective study
Authors: Masubuchi Tetsuhito , Yoshitani Kenji , Minami Kimito , Yokoyama Chisaki , Tsukinaga Akito , Goto Takahisa , Ohnishi Yoshihiko
Published: July 2020

Background

The number of elderly patients undergoing elective as well as emergent cardiac surgery is increasing. Octogenarian and older patients undergoing surgery for acute type A aortic dissection (AAD) have a significantly higher risk of postoperative mortality than younger patients. Hemostasis is difficult in octogenarians with AAD. However, few studies have investigated perioperative blood transfusion volumes and hemostatic conditions in patients undergoing AAD surgery. We retrospectively investigated whether these factors differed between octogenarians and younger patients with AAD.

Methods

The records of 207 patients who underwent emergency surgery for AAD were reviewed between 2008 and 2014. We compared the total volumes of transfused blood components (red blood cell concentrate, fresh frozen plasma, platelets concentrate, and cryoprecipitate), perioperative blood coagulation test results (prothrombin time-international normalized ratio, activated partial thrombin time, and activated coagulation time), and intensive care unit and hospital stay durations between octogenarians (n = 33) and patients < 80 years old (n = 170).

Results

A significantly greater volume of red blood cell concentrates was transfused in octogenarians than in patients < 80 years old. Isolated prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time was observed in octogenarian patients. Duration of hospital stays was significantly longer in octogenarians than in patients < 80 years old.

Conclusions

Octogenarians required more red blood cells during surgery for AAD and exhibited isolated APTT prolongation.

Patterns of Central Europe’s Borders from the Perspective of Multicultural Vienna. Reminiscences, Rehearsals, Extravagances, and Their Wider Context

The article analyzes the concept of the territorial distribution of Central Europe and the inhabitants of Vienna as a par excellence Central European city. It lays out the findings from material gathered through 173 questionnaires in the form of a map of Europe, upon which the respondents indicated the territorial scope of Central Europe. Surveys were carried out both among Austrians and migrants living in Vienna. The authors point at two distinct trends: (a) the inclusion of individual states and regions into Central Europe, (b) exclusion of individual countries and regions from Central Europe. As a result, there is a picture of Central Europe conceived in positive terms (as a cultural and civilizational entity) as well as a negative one (in opposition to the East and the Balkans). However, the study is a pilot and requires further scientific research using alternative methods and techniques.

Facebook as a ‘trusted space of everyday communication’: Parties, citizens and direct representation
Authors: Larsson Anders Olof
Published: July 2020

Detailing processes related to direct representation in a longitudinal fashion, the study at hand gauges the degree to which Swedish political parties have utilized their Facebook pages during a four-year period covering two elections. Moreover, the study provides insights into citizen interaction by measuring the types of engagement preferred by Facebook users in relation to the party pages. Results indicate that while the bulk of parties appear as largely organizing their online activity in relation to election campaigns, the small, non-parliamentary Pirate Party emerges as taking an approach more in line with the permanent campaign aspect of direct representation. Moreover, while results indicate that citizens are indeed engaging with parties on Facebook, they do so mostly through ‘liking’ rather than commenting – arguably a tendency suggesting limited interest in online discussion and deliberation.
Resistir ao "Future-se"
Authors: Gaio de Souza Fábio Márcio , Menezes de Sousa Kátia
Published: July 2020

O presente artigo propõe uma reflexão acerca do Programa “Institutos e Universidades Empreendedoras e Inovadoras”, chamado pelo Ministério da Educação de “Future-se”. Nossa proposta é refletir, com base nos estudos foucaultianos do discurso, acerca das relações de poder e de resistência, considerando a necessidade de se pensar o poder de forma capilarizada, compreendendo que a resistência produz estratégias, o que nos leva a analisar as resistências, para conhecer o poder. Nesse sentido, analisamos as condições de emergência da proposta “Future-se”, levando em conta que ela emerge numa rede enunciativa em que, conectada a outros discursos que constroem a soberania do modo empresarial de gerir as instituições e a vida cotidiana, integra um dispositivo de saber e de poder para o controle da população.
Por que os Direitos Humanos não vingaram no Brasil?
Authors: Da Veiga Kalil Filho Marcos
Published: July 2020

O Brasil construiu, após o período da Redemocratização, um senso comum avesso aos Direitos Humanos. A despeito do conteúdo jurídico igualitário e ético do humanismo, militantes, estudiosos e profissionais humanistas são vistos de forma negativa por parte da população. A compreensão das estratégias enunciativas utilizadas para difundir esse entendimento integra o esforço para o enfrentamento de um estado de coisas de crescente radicalização política e restrição de direitos no final da década de 2010. A semiótica discursiva oferece um arcabouço abrangente de ferramentas de análise aplicáveis a esses discursos de ódio, desde o percurso gerativo de sentido até a abordagem tensiva com seus estudos da dimensão sensível da significação.
A interseccionalidade
Authors: Moraes Eunice Léa
Published: July 2020

O objetivo deste ensaio é destacar, nas bases epistemológicas do pensamento feminista negro, a resistência das mulheres negras às opressões vivenciadas, com base na seguinte problematização: como a formação da consciência crítica de classe, a identidade de gênero e o pertencimento étnico-racial têm constituído a resistência das mulheres negras contra a opressão interseccional de gênero, raça e classe no contexto da luta de classes? A metodologia utilizada foi a revisão bibliográfica. O ensaio apresenta a interseccionalidade, a resistência e a libertação, que compõem o feminismo negro e contribuem para que se compreenda a condição de opressão vivenciada pelas mulheres negras, sua luta contra essa opressão e sua consequente libertação desta. O ensaio contém: introdução; ideias básicas do materialismo histórico-crítico no contexto da resistência à opressão; feminismos, opressões e resistências; interseccionalidade da opressão de gêneros, raças e classe, e considerações finais.
PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Resistência. Opressão. Interseccionalidade. Libertação. Feminismo Negro.
O enunciado discursivo "Intervenção Militar Já" nas redes sociais
Authors: Aguiar Santos Rosiene , Ribeiro de Oliveira Cortes Gerenice
Published: July 2020

No presente texto, objetivamos analisar discursivamente o enunciado “Intervenção Militar Já”, o qual começou a circular intensamente nas redes sociais a partir das manifestações e protestos conhecidos como Jornadas de Junho de 2013. Nosso estudo respalda-se teoricamente na Análise de Discurso desenvolvida por Pêcheux, (1969; 1975; 1983), além de outras contribuições teóricas, a exemplo da História e dos estudos sobre o discurso digital. O corpus foi constituído de sete Sequências Discursivas (SDs) provenientes de materialidades da rede social Facebook, utilizando o critério da regularidade discursiva. Os resultados mostram que a formulação “Intervenção Militar Já”, sob o jogo de relações com a memória, atualiza sentidos do regime militar brasileiro (1964-1985), com predomínio de duas posições-sujeito: uma de apologia ao militarismo, com efeitos de apagamento dos sentidos de ditadura; outra de repúdio e resistência à intervenção militar, devido aos efeitos de memória de que a ditadura jamais deve voltar.
Discurso da mulher política na política dos homens
Authors: Froes de Freitas Geisa
Published: July 2020

Este trabalho tem como objetivo refletir sobre o discurso da mulher política na política dos homens, visto que, no Brasil, a representatividade feminina na vida pública ainda é mínima, devido à exclusão histórica das mulheres na política. Para isso, buscaremos compreender o modo como é constituído socio-historicamente o discurso da mulher política na política dos homens a partir do aporte teórico-metodológico da Análise do Discurso de filiação francesa, derivada dos trabalhos de M. Pêcheux, associada às contribuições da semiologia histórica, concepção proposta por J.-J. Courtine, que visa articular a materialidade verbal e não-verbal na constituição histórica dos sentidos. Para análise do corpus, selecionamos como recorte as postagens da candidata baiana Alice Portugal à prefeitura de Salvador-BA, pleito 2016, na sua página oficial do Facebook. Observamos que, apesar dos avanços dos direitos das mulheres, a política das mulheres, por estar ainda socialmente inscrita na política patriarcal, revela uma construção discursiva de resistência, de luta em busca do empoderamento e da representatividade feminina nos espaços de poder.
От теоретических конструкций к практическим убеждениям: как этические принципы реализуются в жизненных стратегиях молодежи
Authors: Ушкин Сергей Геннадьевич , Коваль Екатерина Александровна , Жадунова Наталья Владимировна
Published: July 2020

Статья посвящена изучению того, как моральные убеждения, подробно рассматриваемые в различных этико-философских учениях, реализуются в повседневном поведении людей. На теоретическом уровне были выделены четыре жизненные стратегии, ориентированные на различные базовые ценности — деонтологическая, консеквенциалистская, контрактарионистская и экзистенциалистская.
Проверка теоретических построений осуществлена посредством онлайн-анкетирования обучающихся четырех высших учебных заведений Республики Мордовия, которые репрезентуют все мордовское студенчество в целом. Первоначально в обследовании приняли участие 1642 человека, результативными признаны 767 анкет. Инструментарий содержал различные наборы бинарных переменных, выбор которых относил респондентов к соответствующей теоретической конструкции через призму восприятия ценностей патриотизма, семьи, волонтерства, высшего образования и т.д.
На основании факторного анализа выделены четыре доминантные поведенческие модели, реализуемые на практике — деонтологическая, эгоцентрическая, контрактарианистская и консеквенциалистская. В целом они соотносятся с рассматриваемыми ранее на теоретическом уровне этико-философскими учениями. Исключение — эгоцентрическая стратегия, представляющая собой результат трансформации и специфического выбора отдельных бинарных переменных, относящихся к экзистенциальной стратегии. Для людей, которых она объединяет, принципиальную важность имеет не стремление к саморазвитию и самосовершенствованию, а собственное мнение, не склонное к изменениям.
Несмотря на выделенные поведенческие модели, которые авторы предлагают в дальнейшем рассматривать как «идеальные типы», констатируется, что большинство респондентов систематически не придерживается ни одной из них или же реализует их ситуативно. Подобное положение вещей говорит о высоком уровне атомизации современного посттрадиционного общества, в котором сильны тенденции клиповизации сознания и фрагментарного усвоения этико-нормативных кодов. Наиболее распространенной установкой является деонтологическая — и косвенно это подтверждается перекрестными данными, свидетельствующими о росте социальной ответственности молодежи, повышении вовлеченности в практики волонтерства и коллективного действия, экоактивизма и т.д.

Центростремительная миграция молодежи из российской провинции: причины и тенденции (на примере Волгоградской области)
Authors: Одинцов Александр Владимирович , Шипицин Антон Игоревич , Марченко Анастасия Юрьевна
Published: July 2020

В течение последних нескольких лет одной из ведущих тенденций на территории Волгоградской области стал массовый миграционный отток молодежи и трудоспособного населения. Несмотря на активную иммиграцию из Украины и среднеазиатских республик, численность населения области планомерно снижается, а вместе с ней — демографический и интеллектуальный капитал. Этому способствует закрепившийся в общественном мнении выраженно негативный имидж территории, формируемый в СМИ и интернет-пространстве, а в рейтингах «самых депрессивных», «экономически отсталых» и «наиболее коррумпированных» регионов Волгоград устойчиво не сдает лидирующих позиций. Как ни странно, при всей изученности феномена молодежной миграции, ее причин, трендов и противоречивых последствий, крайне мало исследований фокусируется на региональной специфике этого явления и учитывает культурно-антропологические аспекты, такие как имидж территории, локальная идентичность, культурные стереотипы, ценности и жизненные стратегии молодых людей.
Авторы статьи поставили своей целью частично восполнить данный пробел и выявить особенности, причины и тенденции отъезда молодежи из российской провинции на основе анализа данных, полученных в ходе массового опроса и фокусированных групповых интервью со студентами и учащимися средних школ и колледжей в Волгоградской области, а также с представителями экспертного сообщества.

Published: July 2020

This study aimed to determine the increase in students’ interest and achievement of science in the 8th graders of SMP Negeri 1 Watampone, Bone Regency Indonesia, when using outdoor activities. This study applied Classroom Action Research (CAR), which consists of two learning cycles following the procedural phase such as planning, implementation, observation phase, and reflection. The sample was taken using a purposive sampling technique class. The data collected included data about the students’ science achievement before the implementation of the action, data about the students’ interest in learning science, data about the students’ science achievement in the cycle I and cycle II, and data on the observations/notes of the teacher in each research cycle. Data were obtained through a questionnaire asking about students’ interest in learning science, students’ achievement result test before the implementation of the action, students’ achievement test in cycle I and cycle II, and student learning observation sheet. Data then analyzed using quantitative and qualitative descriptive analysis techniques. The results showed that there was an increase in students’ achievement, both in cycle I and in cycle II. Students’ mastery level in science materials was in the high category and their readiness, sincerity, and activeness in participating in the learning process were increased. Recommendation and direction for further research are included in the study.
Empleo informal. Evolución teórica y criterios para su estimación derivados de la Organización Internacional del Trabajo (OIT)
Authors: Contreras Dávila Talina
Published: July 2020

Este artículo tiene el objetivo de contribuir al análisis teórico del empleo informal y a la definición de criterios para su estimación. Las discusiones sobre la informalidad del trabajo y las propuestas para su medición en América Latina iniciadas en la década de los setenta se han modificado y extendido conforme se acentúan la flexibilidad y la precariedad laboral. La Organización Internacional del Trabajo (OIT) ha estudiado el concepto hasta proporcionar nuevos elementos para su comprensión y medición tanto en países desarrollados como en desarrollo. Aquí se analizan los primeros enfoques sobre el sector informal y la evolución teórico-estadística de la OIT para revelar dos rutas de medición del empleo informal que incluyen al empleo asalariado como categoría esencial del mercado de trabajo. Concluye que el concepto puede ser operativo para analizar y estimar las condiciones de ocupación en economías con distintos niveles de desarrollo.

Reacciones de la economía colombiana a choques en los precios del petróleo (2009-2018): un enfoque SVAR
Authors: Hincapie Vélez Guillermo David
Published: July 2020

El presente trabajo tiene el objetivo de cuantificar y analizar las respuestas del crecimiento económico, la inflación y el tipo de cambio real ante choques en los precios del petróleo para Colombia en el periodo 2009-2018. Por medio de un VAR estructural, y en el soporte teórico de un conjunto de restricciones sobre el desempeño de la economía del país, se cuantifican las distintas funciones ‘impulso-respuesta’ que permiten dilucidar la reacción serial de la economía hacia el sector petrolero mediante choques en la cotización internacional Brent del petróleo. Los resultados muestran que los precios del petróleo afectan al crecimiento económico y al tipo de cambio real en el periodo de análisis, pero sus efectos son mayores sobre el tipo de cambio que sobre el crecimiento, que en concordancia con la literatura nacional se encuentra muy bajo. En un contexto de limitadas reservas de petróleo, los resultados del artículo proveen de información respecto a estrategias alternativas para que dichos impactos sean sustituidos por otros sectores de la economía, así como evaluar el trade-off existente entre el impacto ambiental y el crecimiento económico que podría generar estrategias como el fracking.
The Lithuanian American Cultural Press in English (1950-1990) in the Aspect of the Dissemination of the Lithuanian Identity
Authors: Budriūnienė Jolanta
Published: July 2020

The article examines the publication of the cultural press in English by the Lithuanian community in the United States (1950-1990), focusing on the analysis of the need for such a press and its intended addressee. The article is based on the analysis of the content of the mentioned publishing production, works dedicated to the history of the Lithuanian diaspora of this period. By reviewing the research of the Lithuanian press in the USA in the 2nd half of the 20th century, it has to be noticed that this field of research has not yet sufficiently exhausted, although the general research of the Lithuanian diaspora is really abundant. However, they mainly focus on the historical, sociological, literary, linguistic description of the problems of the diaspora and migration. Research on publishing of the Lithuanian diaspora in the Lithuanian language in the early period (end of the 19th century – first half of the 20th century) has been carried out and published in the scientific works of Ass. Prof. Dr. Bronius Raguotis, Prof. Dr. Remigijus Misiūnas. At the end of World War II, the tendencies of the press of other languages of Lithuanians, who chose a forced exile, in the conditions of DP (DP – displaced people) were also presented by Prof. Dr. R. Misiūnas. A detailed analysis of the Lithuanian cultural press published in the German DP camps was presented in the monograph by Prof. Dr. Dalia Kuizinienė. Meanwhile, the press of other languages of Lithuanian communities in both the United States and other foreign countries had not yet reached the attention of researchers. In the presented study, Pierre Bourdieu, a theorist of literary sociology, uses the insights of literature as an important social factor covering all elements of cultural practice and allows for a systematic interpretation of their interrelationships; the approaches of the communication strategy of the Lithuanian American cultural press in English are analyzed. The article presents the main content of the cultural press and the social and cultural environment that formed the background of its creation, as well as the efforts of the creators of the cultural press and the ideological attitudes of the intellectuals and ideological leaders of the community that determined them. The article concludes that the main addressee of this press – members of the US communities, while the main focus of the content is the representation of symbols of the Lithuanian national identity.

Published: July 2020

Coronavirus disease 2019 can lead to respiratory failure. Some patients require extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support. During the current pandemic, health care resources in some cities have been overwhelmed, and doctors have faced complex decisions about resource allocation. We present a case in which a pediatric hospital caring for both children and adults seeks to establish guidelines for the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation if there are not enough resources to treat every patient. Experts in critical care, end-of-life care, bioethics, and health policy discuss if age should guide rationing decisions.

Madres ausentes: La voz de los profesionales de salud ante las muertes maternas del departamento de Córdoba –Colombia
Authors: Bula Javier Alonso , Urzola Vertel Kelly Del Carmen
Published: July 2020

La mayoría de las muertes maternas son evitables, aun si se cuentan con recursos limitados, ya que, cuando una madre muere, no solo deja a sus hijos huérfanos, sino que los obliga a enfrentar enormes riesgos, como: el desamparo, el abandono, el maltrato e, incluso, poner en peligro su propia supervivencia. El objetivo de estudio fue comprender los elementos que subyacen en las muertes maternas durante el trienio 2016-2018, desde la voz de los profesionales de salud. La presente investigación se enmarca en el paradigma interpretativo y corresponde a un estudio descriptivo cualitativo, de diseño narrativo; desarrollado a partir de la técnica de análisis de contenido, propuesto por Bardin. La muestra de estudio estuvo compuesta por la saturación teórica de los datos y la recolección de la información, se realizó a través de entrevistas semiestructuradas realizadas a profesionales del sector salud del sector público y del sector privado. Esta investigación fue aprobada por el comité de ética de la Facultad Ciencias de la Salud de la Universidad de Córdoba. Emergieron tres categorías de análisis, la primera corresponde a mujer y contexto, en ella destacan los siguientes factores: violencia de género, la cultura, la falta de autonomía de la mujer para buscar atención en salud y la desconfianza en los servicios sanitarios; la segunda categoría, hace referencia a las barreras geográficas y económicas  de las mujeres para el acceso seguro y oportuno a los servicios de salud materno-infantil; y la tercera, enuncia algunas reflexiones en torno a la prevención de la mortalidad materna. Este estudio identificó tres factores subyacentes en la mortalidad materna en la región cordobesa: las características demográficas de la mujer; el contexto social y la atención que reciben las mujeres en los servicios de salud; los factores que ayudan a perpetuar el ciclo de madres ausentes.

Simulation Learning: Effectiveness and Stressfulness in Medical Student Teaching
Authors: Kocialkowski Cezary , Rybinski Blazej , Hainsworth Louis , Yang Ding
Published: July 2020

This article was migrated. The article was not marked as recommended. Introduction: The aims of this study were to assess the effectiveness of different modalities of simulation learning in medical students and the resulting stress response. Methods: Students were randomised into two groups for simulation learning, on the assessment and management of acutely ill patients. Group 1 performed assessments in a static individual format, whilst group 2 performing assessments in a dynamic group format. The stress response was measured by heart rate monitors worn by students, and performance was graded by a final simulator assessment. Results: The stress response did not significantly vary between groups, but there was a significant increase in heart rate in all students during the simulation learning; with a mean increase of 34 beats per minute in group 1 and 38 beats per minute in group 2. Performance in the final simulator assessment was significantly better in group 2, with a mean score of 21.5 points, compared to 16.2 points in group 1. Conclusion: A dynamic group simulation learning strategy is more effective in teaching medical students than simulations performed individually. Simulation learning, however; results in a significant stress response in all students, which must be carefully managed when delivering this type of learning.
Simulating Offender Mobility: Modeling Activity Nodes from Large-Scale Human Activity Data
Authors: Rosés Raquel , Kadar Cristina , Gerritsen Charlotte , Rouly Chris
Published: July 2020

In recent years, simulation techniques have been applied to investigate the spatiotemporal dynamics of crime. Researchers have instantiated mobile offenders in agent-based simulations for theory testing, experimenting with crime prevention strategies, and exploring crime prediction techniques, despite facing challenges due to the complex dynamics of crime and the lack of detailed information about offender mobility. This paper presents a simulation model to explore offender mobility, focusing on the interplay between the agent's awareness space and activity nodes. The simulation generates patterns of individual mobility aiming to cumulatively match crime patterns. To instantiate a realistic urban environment, we use open data to simulate the urban structure, location-based social networks data to represent activity nodes as a proxy for human activity, and taxi trip data as a proxy for human movement between regions of the city. We analyze and systematically compare 35 different mobility strategies and demonstrate the benefits of using large-scale human activity data to simulate offender mobility. The strategies combining taxi trip data or historic crime data with popular activity nodes perform best compared to other strategies, especially for robbery. Our approach provides a basis for building agent-based crime simulations that infer offender mobility in urban areas from real-world data.

The EVAC Movement Story: Why Youth Storytelling Is Powerful . . . and Why It’s Dangerous
Authors: McCULLOUGH ALAN , MORRELL FELTON , THOMAS BERNARD , WAUGH VINCENTE , SHUBERT NICHOLAS , DONOFRIO AMY
Published: July 2020

In this reflective essay, Alan McCullough Jr., Felton Morrell Jr., Bernard Thomas III, Vincente Waugh, and Nicholas Shubert with their teacher, Amy Donofrio, share the youth self-authorship methods that empowered them to transform their labels from “at-risk youth” to “at-hope youth leaders” in Jacksonville, Florida. After realizing that they had similar experiences with Jacksonville’s extreme violence and crime, they partnered to form the EVAC movement. The power of their shared stories led them from inviting officials to their classroom to hear their stories and collaborate for change to eventually speaking at the White House, meeting President Obama, making the front page of the New York Times, and presenting at Harvard University. In this reflection, the authors share how utilizing the power of youth storytelling in the context of a public school classroom can support youth to heal and lead community change, as well as the ways in which youth stories are dangerous—particularly to the systems of racism and oppression that their stories challenge.
El papel de la Constitución en la independencia de las naciones
Authors: ÁLVAREZ MORA JESÚS HERNANDO
Published: July 2020

Al partir de dos tipologías de constituciones expuestas por reconocidos tratadistas del Derecho Constitucional, desde una óptica abstracta y partiendo de la constitución escrita, con referentes históricos de la construcción del Estado Liberal, se esboza, en forma analítica, el papel de las constituciones en la independencia de las naciones. Y, con breves reseñas respecto a lo acontecido en el proceso de independencia de los Estados Unidos de Norteamérica y del nuestro, dada la coyuntura del Bicentenario real o material de independencia que estamos conmemorando, se concluye que, no obstante las vicisitudes presentes en el alba de las naciones, la Constitución escrita se convirtió en un importante referente evitando la idea de un gobierno despótico y, como consecuencia, nutriendo la praxis de la democracia, aun cuando su materialización ha sido paulatina.

Sexual Abuse and Exploitation at the Hands of Peacekeepers
Authors: Proulx Kristina
Published: July 2020

Whereas much of the existing scholarship focuses on the implications of sexual violence in conflict and post-conflict reconstruction as a tool of war, this paper instead seeks to explore the implications of sexual exploitation and abuse at the hands of peacekeepers. As allegations of sexual violence by peacekeepers have continued to persist, these reports identify a potential legitimacy crisis not only for peacekeeping operations and the United Nations, but of the evolving concept of human security. Constituting a paradigm shift of sorts, the streamlining of the concept of ‘human security’ has visibly begun to influence and change global politics and institutions. This paper explores these additional considerations while identifying two specific challenges to addressing the problem, specifically militarized masculinity and the fragile and complex environments in which peacekeeping operations operate in.
The Use of Peer Instruction and Flipped Learning to Support Flexible Blended Learning During and After the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Nerantzi Chrissi
Published: July 2020

This article provides an overview of peer instruction and flipped learning, two active learning approaches, in the context of learning and teaching in higher education and illustrates their relevance during the COVID-19 pandemic. Peer instruction and flipped learning should be considered when designing for flexible learning. These approaches can stimulate learning and create seamless active engagement in fully online and blended settings even when switching between these modes becomes necessary due to developments in this pandemic. This transitioning between fully online and blended, as and when required, is something that is of high importance during these challenging times, especially for campus-based universities as they are keen to secure the smooth running of their programmes under difficult circumstances. This article provides practical advice for course designers, module and programme leaders on how they can utilise peer instruction or flipped learning to maximise student engagement and learning.

Az élelmiszer-vásárlói magatartás vizsgálata online környezetben – Szakirodalmi áttekintés
Authors: Piros Edina , Fehér András
Published: July 2020

Napjaink kereskedelemében egyre fontosabb szerepet játszanak az új, alternatív értékesítési formák, mint például a csomagküldés, a direktértékesítés, a telefon és az internet. Releváns szakirodalmak és statisztikai adatok bizonyítják az e-kereskedelem sikerességét hazai és nemzetközi szinteken. Célunk az online értékesítés egy olyan szegmensét feltérképezni, ahol az említett eredményesség még mérsékelten van jelen. Az online élelmiszer-vásárlás jelenleg még nem integrálódott a fogyasztók életébe olyan mértékben, mint más piacvezető termékkategóriák (ruhák, lábbelik). A kérdéskör vizsgálatára a szekunder kutatás során széleskörű szakirodalmi elemzést folytattunk hazai és nemzetközi forrásokat használva. Legfőbb célunk volt választ kapni arra a kérdésre, hogy mely tényezők húzódnak meg az online fogyasztói preferenciák kialakítása mögött a gyorsan mozgó fogyasztási cikkek (FMCG) termékkategóriájában.  Összességében az online kiskereskedelmi környezetben a fogyasztók körében a legelőnyösebb termékkategóriák között az utazás, a könyvek, a zene, az események, a divat, az informatika és az elektronika szerepel. Az online élelmiszer-vásárlás az eddigi elhanyagolt helyzetéből a világ egyik leggyorsabban növekvő területévé vált. A növekvő fogyasztói érdeklődés mögött a kényelem, a házhozszállítás lehetősége, az online áruházak 24 órás elérhetősége és a sorbaállás elkerülhetősége áll. Továbbá az ügyfelek könnyen információkhoz juthatnak, a különféle marketingkommunikációs eszközök segítségével mielőtt rendelnének. A leggyakoribb információgyűjtő eszközök a digitális csatornák.
