Provenance Records in the Historical Part of the Library of Bohuslav Dušek
Authors: Tvrzníková Jana
Published: November 2019

The article presents the provenance records preserved in the part of the library of the collector Bohuslav Dušek deposited in the Department of Manuscripts and Early Printed Books of the National Museum Library. Numerous provenance marks were left in the books by Dušek himself. Other preserved marks of Czech provenance come from Protestants as well as Catholics, from peasants, burghers and nobles, and later from scholars. The studied part does not contain any coherent set, because Dušek did not purchase the books in large quantities and chose them carefully according to his interests. For comparison, the collection of the director of Živnostenská banka Jaroslav Preiss is briefly presented as well.

Authors: Babicz Marek , Hałabis Marcin , Skałecki Piotr , Domaradzki Piotr , Litwińczuk Anna , Kropiwiec-Domańska Kinga , Łukasik Magdalena
Published: November 2019

The aim of the study was to discuss breeding of pigs of the Puławska breed, which is included in a Genetic Resources Conservation Programme, and to analyse performance parameters that are useful in domestic pig production. The Puławska breed is the oldest native breed of pig in Poland. Since 1996 it has been protected by a genetic resources conservation programme, owing to breeding traditions and the production traits characteristic of the breed. The use value of these pigs is currently at the level of maternal breeds: number of live piglets born per litter – 10.54; number of piglets reared per litter – 9.37; daily weight gains – 569 g for breeding boars and 562 g for breeding gilts; meat content – 54.6% for breeding boars and 54.9% for breeding gilts. An important element in favour of the use of this breed in domestic production of fresh pork and pork products is its meat quality parameters. The mean values for physical traits (WHC 22.42%, pH45 6.47, pH24 5.63) and chemical parameters (protein 22.70%, fat 2.65%) are characteristic of meat of normal quality. The Puławska breed can be used to produce high-quality fresh meat and meat products, including traditional and regional ones. Puławska pigs are bred and reared according to the principles of sustainable agriculture, which reduces the negative impact of pig production on the natural environment.

Published: November 2019

This study was conducted in Hammam Debagh Reservoir located in northeastern Algeria, which was first the subject of fish farming tests in 2001. The species tested included Chinese carp, royal carp, common carp, pikeperch, and common bream. The present work aimed to determine the age and growth of one of the most frequently caught species in the reservoir, common bream, Abramis brama. This information is essential to the knowledge of fish biology, and thereby to solving many of the problems of fish research and development. A sample of 100 common bream, A. brama, was caught with gillnets over a period of six months from December 2017 to May 2018. The results obtained fit well with the growth model and were similar to those published regarding other environments. Scales from a sample of 50 fish were read under an optical microscope, which permitted identifying five age groups. The value of the overall sex ratio (4.88) revealed a strong imbalance in favor of males throughout the study period. The relationship linking length-weight is of the minor allometry type with b < 3.
Factors limiting successful reproduction in wild silver carp, Hypophthalmichtys molitrix, in Kherrata Reservoir, Algeria
Authors: Sadouni Soraya , Iguer-Ouada Mokrane
Published: November 2019

Silver carp, Hypophthalmichtys molitrix (Cyprinidae), is the most important freshwater fish in Algerian aquaculture. No natural spawning is observed in Algerian water bodies. This study was conducted with the aim of investigating silver carp reproduction in the wild in Algeria. This investigation can contribute tools to facilitate successful artificial reproduction. Macroscopic and histological analysis of the gonads was conducted, and the monthly distribution of maturity stages and oocyte diameters were monitored in an aggregate sample of 130 male and female silver carp, H. molitrix, (450-710 mm total length). The gonadosomatic index (GSI) ranged from 2.76 to 18.88% in females and from 0.34 to 1.85% in males. The female GSI values were the highest from June to August indicating the onset of the spawning season. The histological structures of the gonads revealed five different developmental stages in females and three stages in males. The oogenesis stages were the perinucleolar stage, the yolk vesicle stage, the primary yolk, the secondary yolk, and the tertiary yolk. Migratory nuclei and hydrated oocytes, which are considered to be the maturation stage, were not observed. Three different spermatogenesis phases (immature, maturing, and mature testis) were identified, which included final spermatozoa maturation.

The results of a close follow-up of trainees to gain a good blood collection practice
Authors: Aykal Güzin , Esen Hatice , Öz Cemile , Yeğin Ayşenur
Published: November 2019

Background

Phlebotomy is one of the most important steps in the preanalytical phase of a clinical laboratory process. In order to decrease phlebotomy errors, this specific procedure should be taught in detail by laboratory organizations. Our study aims to practice the training program on venous blood sampling and observe the close follow-up results.

Methods

In this observational study, 127 students who started their summer internship in Antalya Education and Research Hospital were given a one-day theoretical phlebotomy training in accordance with the Venous Blood Sampling Guidelines. After the theoretical training, phlebotomy applications of 10 students who were working in the field of out-patient blood sampling were observed both with and without their knowledge. A comprehensive checklist related to phlebotomy was created by the trainers in Antalya Education and Research Hospital and the observers answered each question as yes or no. For the statistical analysis, IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 was used.

Results

After the theoretical education, the trainees were observed but no significant difference was found between the first and the second informed observations (p = 0.125). The students were observed three times more in the following week without their knowledge. There was a statistically significant difference between the first and the third unannounced observations (p=0.001).

Conclusions

In order to perform phlebotomy correctly, apart from theoretical education, a close follow-up is necessary too.

Myotis emarginatus showed the highest frequency, it was found at five sites, Rhinolophus hipposideros, Eptesicus isabellinus and Miniopterus schreibersii at four sites, while Rhinolophus euryale, R. blasii, Myotis punicus, Pipistrellus kuhlii and Tadarida teniotis in three localities each. Species richness (total number of species within a site) ranged between 1 and 8 (mean 4.33). The annual activity pattern of all species was recorded by one netting session per month per locality in the course of two years.
Mass hibernaculum of Pipistrellus pipistrellus in a bypass tunnel of the Slapy water reservoir, Czech Republic (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae)
Authors: Hanzal Vladimír , Kříž Karel
Published: November 2019

The bat hibernaculum, situated on the right bank of the Vltava river near Třebenice, approximately 300 metres under the dam of the Slapy water reservoir (49,82232913° N, 14,43661106° E), was discovered in 2010. The bats use a bypass tunnel quarried in 1949–1951 during the construction of the dam. The first check revealed a mass winter aggregation of the common pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pipistrellus), comprising almost 4000 individuals. Since the discovery till 2017, we recorded regular wintering of 2090–4251 individuals of this bat. Moreover, we obtained data on the hibernation of other eight species at this locality: Myotis myotis, M. daubentonii, M. nattereri, M. mystacinus, Barbastella barbastellus, Nyctalus noctula, Vespertilio murinus, and Plecotus auritus. The occurrence of the soprano pipistrelle (Pipistrellus pygmaeus) was confirmed only by detection of echolocation calls and netting at the entrance to the tunnel, but not in the winter aggregation.
What Muscardinus avellanarius like but consultants don’t: performance of nest boxes vs. nest tubes for translocations (Rodentia: Gliridae)
Authors: Lang Johannes , Leonhardt Ines , Beer Sarah , Bräsel Nicolle , Lanz Johann D. , Schmittfull Daniel
Published: November 2019

Nest boxes and nest tubes are widely used for surveys, for both research and development purposes, to detect and survey hazel dormice (Muscardinus avellanarius). In order to compare the performance of the two devices for translocations a study was conducted where hazel dormice had the choice between nest boxes and nest tubes. Hazel dormice preferred nest tubes over nest boxes but escaped more often from nest tubes than from nest boxes during checking. We conclude that nest boxes are the better choice for translocations as they offer the better escape ratio over nest tubes.

These data indicate a continuing tendency of the species to spread northwards from southern to central Bohemia.
Tanggung Jawab Hukum Dokter Terhadap Kesalahan Diagnosis Penyakit Kepada Pasien
Authors: Mauli Dian
Published: November 2019

Terjadinya ikatan antara pasien dan dokternya bermula ketika pasien meminta bantuan dokter mengenai kesehatannya. Hubungan demikian dikenal dengan kontrak teraupetik. Tidak dapat disangkal bahwa selalu akan terjadi sengketa antara dokter dan pasiennya. Dalam penelitian ini ditemukan beberapa masalah diantaranya, yang pertama mengenai indikator-indikator yang berimbas pada terjadinya kesalahan diagnosis oleh dokter, lalu yang kedua adalah dasar hukum penuntutan terhadap dokter jika kesalahan diagnosis terjadi. Dan dengan itu didapat hasil penelitian sebagai berikut: yang pertama, ditemukan prosedur penegakan diagnosis yaitu; anamnesis, pemeriksaaan fisik, pemeriksaan penunjang dan diagnosis, selain itu ditemukan indikator yang berimbas pada terjadinya kesalahan diagnosis seperti, kurangnya kuantitas tenaga medis pada tempat-tempat pelayanan kesehatan serta tidak lengkapnya fasilitas pemeriksaan penunjang. Menurut data yang diambil dari salah satu Puskesmas di Lampung Utara tercatat, bahkan tidak memiliki dokter dan fasilitas lain, hal ini tentu bertentangan dengan Peraturan Menteri Kesehatan No. 75 Tahun 2014, yang menyebutkan bahwa setiap Puskesmas harus memiliki minimal 2 dokter. Temuan yang kedua, adalah bahwa dokter yang melakukan kesalahan diagnosis harus bertanggung jawab berdasarkan Kode Etik Kedokteran Indonesia (KODEKI) dan Undang-Undang Nomor 29 Tahun 2004 Tentang Praktek Kedokteran. Tanggung jawab dokter ini berupa tanggung jawab etis dan tanggung jawab disiplin.
Asas Tanggung Renteng pada Bentuk Usaha Bukan Badan Hukum dan Akibat Hukum Bagi Harta Perkawinan
Authors: Murniati Rilda
Published: November 2019

Bentuk usaha bukan badan hukum diatur dalam KUHD yaitu: firma dan CV yang memiliki hubungan komplementer yang harus menanggung tanggung jawab secara bersama-sama atas kerugian pada pihak lain secara pribadi dan bersifat keseluruhan. Permasalahan hukum yang mungkin timbul dalam hal sekutu komplementer tidak menimbulkan perjanjian kawin (pisah harta) sebelum perkawinan atau saat perkawinan berakibat hukum bagi harta bersama perkawinan. Dalam hal terjadi wanprestasi terhadap perjanjian yang dibuat untuk menjalankan kegiatan usaha dari bentuk usaha bukan badan hukum. Untuk itu, perlu diketahui bagaimana pengaturan asas tanggung renteng pada bentuk usaha bukan badan hukum dan dalam hal pengusaha mengelola perusahaan dan melangsungkan perjanjian dengan pihak lainnya hingga terjadi wanprestasi dan bahkan berakibat dipailitkan sehingga harta bersama perkawinan dapat ikut digunakan untuk melunasi utang perusahaan. Hal ini dapat terjadi jika, terbukti tidak adanya perjanjian perkawinan yang dibuat sebelumnya terhadap sekutu kompelementer tersebut sehingga istri/suami dapat turut digugat untuk dimintakan pertanggungjawaban dalam terjadi wanprestasi akibat perbuatan sekutu kompelementer untuk kepentingan perusahaan bukan badan hukum. Dengan adanya pembaruan hukum melalui Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi No. 69/PUU-XIII/2015 sebagai judicial review atas Pasal 29 UU No.1 Tahun 1974, bahwa perjanjian kawin yang dapat dibuat oleh suami dan istri selaku sekutu komplementer selama berlangsungnya perkawinan di hadapan notaris adalah langkah antisipatif atas tanggung jawab secara tanggung renteng pada bentuk usaha bukan badan hukum yang berakibat bagi harta bersama perkawinan.
Penyelenggaraan Pendaftaran Peralihan Hak Milik Atas Harta Bersama di Kantor Pertanahan Kabupaten Lampung Timur
Authors: Diaz Reny Raymond
Published: November 2019

Pasal 37 ayat (1) PP 24 Tahun 1997 menyatakan bahwa peralihan hak milik atas tanah hanya dapat didaftarkan jika dibuktikan dengan akta PPAT. Akta PPAT memiliki kekuatan pembuktian sempurna karena memuat semua unsur alat bukti perdata sehingga tidak memerlukan dokumen lain sebagai dasar pendaftaran hak. Hal ini dipertegas dengan Peraturan Kepala BPN Nomor 1 Tahun 2010, pada kenyataannya, kepala kantor pertanahan tidak serta merta mau menerima akta sebagai bukti peralihan satu-satunya untuk dijadikan dasar pendaftaran peralihan hak. Kepala kantor mewajibkan penambahan dokumen berupa fotokopi buku nikah, fotokopi akta cerai, perjanjian perkawinan, dan/atau surat persetujuan para ahli waris jika salah satu pasangan suami/istri telah meninggal dunia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui penyelenggaraan pendaftaran peralihan hak milik atas harta bersama perkawinan. Penelitian menggunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif empiris. Pendekatan penelitian menggunakan pendekatan perundang-undangan, analitis dan partisipasi. Analisis data menggunakan data primer dan sekunder untuk diambil kesimpulan menggunakan logika induktif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: 1) penyelenggaraan pendaftaran peralihan hak milik atas harta bersama memungkinkan adanya diskresi karena perundang-undangan yang mengatur tidak lengkap dan jelas. 2) Akta PPAT belum dapat memberikan jaminan kepastian hukum sepenuhnya dalam pendaftaran tanah sehingga masih memerlukan dokumen lain sebagai pelengkap pembuktian. 3) Upaya Kantor Pertanahan dalam memberikan jaminan kepastian hukum sertipikat adalah dengan menerapkan persyaratan dokumen tambahan dalam pendaftaran peralihan hak milik atas harta bersama.

Published: November 2019

Volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Sinclair Supergroup occur in the Konkiep Terrane of Southern Namibia. Three volcanic and sedimentary cycles are recognised. In this work we describe and date volcanic rocks of the Barby Formation, a key unit in the Sinclair area. The coeval Spes Bona Syenite and the Tiras Granite Gneiss are also described and dated. The rock types in the Barby Formation are rhyolites, basaltic trachyandesites, trachybasalts and trachydacites as well as volcanoclastic rocks. The rocks are largely undeformed and partly altered by deuteric and contact metamorphic processes but not regionally metamorphosed. Our samples represent both the calc-alkaline and alkaline trends documented in previous work. U-Pb ion probe and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma (LA-ICP) multicollector mass spectrometer Lu-Hf microbeam analyses were made of zircon and baddeleyite grains from four samples. A felsic tuff sample from the base of the Barby Formation has a 207Pb/206Pb zircon age of 1214 ± 5 Ma (2σ). A rhomb porphyry sample from the top of an 8.5 km-thick stratigraphic section gives a 207Pb/206Pb baddeleyite age of 1217 ± 2 Ma. The Spes Bona Syenite which intrudes the top of the Barby Formation has a 207Pb/206Pb baddeleyite age of 1217 ± 3 Ma and an indistinguishable LA-ICP collision cell mass spectrometer Rb-Sr biotite isochron age of 1238 ± 20 Ma, showing that there was no >350°C regional metamorphic event.

Multi-element diagrams for the calc-alkaline samples show a dominant signature of reworked crust which is superimposed on a possible subduction signature. However the alkaline samples contain clear subduction signatures which are not seen in the underlying 1.37 Ga Kumbis rhyolite. The Barby Formation samples and coeval Spes Bona Syenite have Lu-Hf crustal residence ages between 1682 and 1873 Ma, suggesting that both of these units formed from a mixture of juvenile mantle-derived and older crustal material. The Barby Formation is considered to have originated due to a subduction event which took place during the assembly of the Rodinia supercontinent. The duration of the Barby magmatic episode is constrained to a maximum 9 m.y. period between 1219 and 1210 Ma, and during this period the Konkiep Terrane was an active continental margin. The 1204 ± 9 Ma Tiras Granite Gneiss is slightly younger than the Barby Formation and intruded across the Lord Hills Shear Zone, which is the suture between the hardly metamorphosed Konkiep Terrane and the highly metamorphosed Grunau Terrane of the Namaqua-Natal Province. Its intrusion reflects the end of subduction-related volcanism, due to the collision of Namaqua terranes with the Konkiep Terrane.

The relationship between law, ratified agreement and the EU law in the light of the Polish Constitution and application of the EU law by public administration in Poland
Authors: Woźniak Marta
Published: November 2019

The article makes a presentation of the relation between legal acts belonging to the so-called foreign orders and the national law at the level of regulation contained in the Constitution of the Republic of Poland and the problem of application of the EU law by the Polish administrative authorities. The ratified international agreements and acts of the EU law are sources of administrative law and must be applied by the public authority of Member States. The article deals with two issues: the relationship between the international law and national law in the light of the Polish Constitution and application of the EU law by public administration in Poland. These issues can be dealt with separately but have a number of tangent points. The author does not aspire to present a comprehensive discussion of these issues, but intends to point out some aspects. It has been argued that the standard of application of international law by public administrations (which is also the accession treaties) and the EU law depends on how the constitution regulates the issue of international law relation to the domestic law. In Polish jurisdiction (the Constitutional Court and the Polish Supreme Administrative Court) the practice of respecting the principle of primacy of the EU law as well as the principle of a community of interpretation of this law has been established.
Osoba pozostająca we wspólnym pożyciu na tle doktryny i judykatury w prawie karnym materialnym i procesowym

Published: November 2019

The Penal Code presently in force provides for a “person living in actual co-habitation” and it stipulates in Article 115 § 11 the definition of “the person next of kin”. According to the invoked provision “the person next of kin shall be a spouse, ascendant, descendant, brother or sister, a relative in the same line or degree, a person being an adopted relation as well as his spouse, and also a person living in actual co-habitation.” Numerous differences and doubts arise in the doctrine and judicature when one attempts to decode the term “a person living in actual co-habitation” as it has not been strictly defined by the legislator. The results of its interpretation by way of linguistic, systematic and functional directives lead to the conclusion that the term contained in Article 115 § 11 of the Penal Code “a person living in actual co-habitation” indicates a person living with another person in such a factual relationship, where there are between them simultaneously spiritual, physical and economic bonds. It is possible to establish the existence of a relation of “living in actual co-habitation” also when the lack of one of such bonds is objectively justified. The difference of the sexes of persons living in such co-habitation is not a requisite condition to establish that they actually live in co-habitation within the meaning of Article 115 § 11 of the Penal Code.

Financial Determinants of Economic Growth of Pakistan: An Empirical Analysis
Authors: Nisa Zaib-un-
Published: November 2019

The paper attempts to investigate the relationship between savings and Economic growth of Pakistan by using the time series data from 1972 to 2015. For empirical analysis, ordinary least square method is used. The analysis is made in two parts. In the first part; descriptive statistics and correlation matrix are described. In second part, multivariate analysis explains how saving of Pakistan is determined by economic growth. This study concludes that the employed labor force, gross fixed capital formation and exchange rate have positive and significant influence on real gross domestic product. Foreign direct investment and gross domestic savings have negative but insignificant impact on real gross domestic product. Keeping in view the role of savings and economic growth in Pakistan. It is recommended that government should provide enabling environment and fiscal incentives for enhancing the foreign direct investment. This will increase the gross domestic product in the country. For this purpose, the industrial and agricultural sectors of the country must be stable. Moreover, there is a need of creating an investment friendly business environment in Pakistan.

Background

Usutu virus (USUV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus, which shares its transmission cycle with the phylogenetically related West Nile virus (WNV). USUV circulates in several European countries and its activity has increased over the last 5 years.

Aim

To describe human cases of USUV infection identified by surveillance for WNV and USUV infection in the Veneto Region of northern Italy in 2018.

Methods

From 1 June to 30 November 2018, all cases of suspected autochthonous arbovirus infection and blood donors who had a reactive WNV nucleic acid test were investigated for both WNV and USUV infection by in-house molecular methods. Anti-WNV and anti-USUV IgM and IgG antibodies were detected by ELISA and in-house immunofluorescence assay, respectively; positive serum samples were further tested by WNV and USUV neutralisation assays run in parallel.

Results

Eight cases of USUV infection (one with neuroinvasive disease, six with fever and one viraemic blood donor who developed arthralgia and myalgia) and 427 cases of WNV infection were identified. A remarkable finding of this study was the persistence of USUV RNA in the blood and urine of three patients during follow-up. USUV genome sequences from two patients shared over 99% nt identity with USUV sequences detected in mosquito pools from the same area and clustered within lineage Europe 2.

Conclusions

Clinical presentation and laboratory findings in patients with USUV infection were similar to those found in patients with WNV infection. Cross-reactivity of serology and molecular tests challenged the differential diagnosis.
Workplace accommodation and audit-based evaluation process for compliance with the Employment Equity Act: inclusionary practices that exclude—an institutional ethnography
Authors: Deveau Jean Louis
Published: November 2019

Matt kept the operable window in his office open all the time because he needed unlimited access to fresh air. This was terminated after a Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning system was installed in his Government of Canada office building. After Matt’s access to fresh air became mechanically controlled through extra-locally developed air quality standards, the workplace became a barrier for him. Matt was deemed to suffer from a disability known as environmental sensitivity because he became ill every time he spent more than 45 minutes inside his office building. Yet, according to a textually-mediated assessment of Matt’s workplace performed by a Compliance Review Officer from the Canadian Human Rights Commission, his workplace was barrier-free. Using Dorothy E. Smith’s institutional ethnography, this paper explicates how the social organization of workplace accommodation and compliance—processes that were developed to promote inclusion—are exclusionary.

Authors: Wu Zheng , Schimmele Christoph M. , Hou Feng
Published: November 2019

The purpose of this study is to examine whether there are intergenerational differences in the self-perceived integration of immigrants. The analysis disentangles this relationship from the effects of ethno-racial status and other individual-level characteristics. In addition, it examines the effects of neighborhood socio-demographic composition, such as living in an ethnic enclave. The study merges data from the 2001 Canadian Census and the post-censal Ethnic Diversity Survey. The study focuses on two dimensions of self-perceived integration, sense of belonging and feelings of discomfort living in the host society. The core finding is that the relationship between immigrant generation and integration is complex. This relationship is conditional on ethno-racial status and neighborhood of residence. The findings question “straight-line” theories of intergenerational progress and demonstrate the need to use a fine-grained approach for understanding the integration process.
Racial-Nationalism and Representations of Citizenship: The Recalcitrant Alien, the Citizen of Convenience and the Fraudulent Citizen
Authors: Park Augustine SJ
Published: November 2019

This paper traces racial-nationalism through three recent sites of controversy relating to citizenship: the banning of face coverings while swearing the citizenship oath, the evacuation of Canadians abroad and the revocation of the citizenship of 1,800 alleged to have gained citizenship through fraudulent means. Racial-nationalism is an architecture of race-thinking defined by (1) cultural racism, which operates as a strategy of “sorting out” outsiders from insiders and (2) expulsion or what Hage refers to as the logic of pure exclusion. Through an interrogation of online reader commentary responding to news reporting, this paper examines three allegorical figures at the core of public discourses representing citizenship: the recalcitrant alien, the citizen of convenience and the fraudulent citizen.
Making Up Excited Delirium
Authors: Anaïs Seantel Ara Blythe
Published: November 2019

This article examines the emergence of a medical condition increasingly cited as a cause of death in fatality inquiries in Canada: Excited Delirium. Beyond the association between excited delirium and police use of electrical weapons known as Tasers, one common concern about the medical condition is whether or not it is “real.” Bypassing strictly realist or purely constructivist accounts, this article uses the conceptual language of historical ontology and science and technology studies to investigate how excited delirium is enacted within and between disparate medico-legal sites. Contributing to sociologies of death and dying and category formation, it attends to the textually-mediated practices of legal and medical experts in the United States and Canada that labour to produce excited delirium as a coherent medical condition rather than a “diagnosis of exclusion” reached upon autopsy.
The Elementary Forms as Political (A)theology
Authors: Ramp William
Published: November 2019

Durkheim’s Elementary Forms of Religious Life examines a fundamental intercalation of selfhood, sociality and cosmology, but as a response to a particular political context, it may also speak to contemporary issues of sovereignty and democracy. Reading the Elementary Forms in this context, and in light of Durkheim’s references to monarchy, absolutism and revolution, is suggestive of an approach to such issues which resists sacrifice of the social to the sovereign, whether hierarchical or popular.
Durkheim’s Ruse: The Concept as Seduction
Authors: Blum Alan
Published: November 2019

My method of reading Durkheim’s (1965 [1915]) The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life recovers as his fundamental interest the following question: How in collective life do we deal with ambiguity as a social phenomenon? The social actor always needs ways and means to bear this burden as something other than oppressive, for example, the conception of a self both finite and infinite, both sacred and profane, both free and constrained. Durkheim challenges the modern conceit that secular society supersedes the attachment to the sacred by exposing the force of the sacred in any society. Durkheim proceeds by formulating the social actor as an automaton and by expanding and enriching the notion of automation to reveal it as having a capacity for a degree of self-affection and affectivity that can be tapped as a resource in creative social action. It is an impersonality towards ambiguity as an impenetrable structure that makes such improvisational action possible as both automated, and yet capable of change through reflective practices that expose such automation.
Epigenetics and Politics in the Colonial Present
Authors: Murray Karen Bridget
Published: November 2019

This article draws attention to the importance of including the colonial present in critical inquiries into the relationship between epigenetics and politics. Focusing on British Columbia (Canada) at the dawn of the twenty-first century, the assessment illustrates how an epigenetic style of thought rendered tangible the “vulnerable Aboriginal child” as a category amenable to settler-colonial governmental interventions. More specifically, the article demonstrates how prominent elements of this classification interconnected with a mediating device undergirded by epigenetic reason, the Early Development Instrument. Eugenic sensibilities produced through epigenetic logics wove through this relationship. In turn, linkages between the EDI and the classification of the at-risk Aboriginal child comprised a terrain that shaped settler-colonial power and privilege through mechanisms of population management and related implications for territorial control. The article evaluates what these findings suggest for extending debates about the political elements of epigenetic reason.
Gendered Violence, Cultural Otherness, and Honour Crimes in Canadian National Logics
Authors: Olwan Dana M.
Published: November 2019

Abstract. Honour-based violence, and the honour crime in particular, have assumed a central place in Canadian national discourse and consciousness. Understood within mainstream Canadian discourses as a uniquely dangerous form of violence, the honour crime has been linked to recent waves of migration and culturally specific notions of honour. Imagined as a foreign and imported phenomenon brought to Canada by immigrants who fail to assimilate to national and “western” ideals of gender equality, the crime is also viewed as an extreme form of violence that must be managed and ultimately expelled. Discourses sur- rounding the honour crime now inform various key social, racial, and cultural debates across national and transnational scales. By analyzing the discursive strategies used to construct and disseminate dominant discourses on honour killings, this article maps the heightened official state and public media interest in honour-based violence and crimes.
"Since When Did We Have 100,000 Tamils?" Media Representations of Race Thinking, Spatiality,and the 2009 Tamil Diaspora Protests
Authors: Jeyapal Daphne
Published: November 2019

Abstract. Beginning in mid-2008, the Tamil diaspora around the world organized in extraordinary activism against the escalating violence in northern Sri Lanka. Responses to the 2009 Tamil diaspora protests in Canada provide a unique case study to examine a contemporary moment of resistance, when race thinking and spatiality intersected within and beyond national borders. Using critical theories of representation, I conceptualize Canadian print media coverage of the protests as representations of a “strange encounter” with the other. I explore the media’s production of the other and its conflation of the Tamil protester-terrorist through constructions of space. I also examine how scale operates through underlying national values to conceptualize a precarious structure of belonging. Through these discursive moves, I demonstrate how the resulting figure of the “other,” the “outlaw,” and the “outsider” came to represent and delegitimize the racialized/ spatialized Tamil protest(er).
Muslim Ceutíes, Migrants, and Porteadores: Race, Security, and Tolerance at the Spanish-Moroccan Border
Authors: Moffette David
Published: November 2019

Abstract. This article analyzes the differential problematizations of “Muslim Ceutíes,” “migrants,” and “porteadores” (carriers) in the Spanish border town of Ceuta located on the south shore of the Gibraltar Strait in North Africa. I argue that convivencia, a local discourse and practice of tolerance meaning “living together,” can be analyzed as a regime for governing differences premised on tolerance, and nevertheless contributing to the reproduction of a racialized and unequal social order. I also discuss the securitization of the border and argue against considering desecuritization and depoliticization as antidotes to securitization. I suggest that these strategies are complementary components of a flexible regime for managing the supposed threat posed by migrants in Ceuta. I further substantiate the thesis of a flexible regime for governing risks at the border by showing how various border crossers are framed and governed in Ceuta.
How Unreligious are the Religious “Nones”? Religious Dynamics of the Unaffiliated in Canada
Authors: Wilkins Laflamme Sarah
Published: November 2019

Increasing rates of religious non-affiliation have been a fundamental transformation of Canadian society since the 1970s. Such increases, present across the West, have received much attention from researchers and sparked much debate. Two competing frameworks identify differing mechanisms behind the rise in individuals declaring having no religion. Secularization theories see this trend as indicating a decline of all things religious. By contrast, individualization theories argue it is only institutional indicators of religiosity which are on the decline, and individually constructed spirituality systems are becoming the norm. Yet, little systematic empirical testing has been done on this subject, especially in the Canadian context. Generating single- and multi-level regression models with data from the Canadian GSS and the ISSP, this paper undertakes a novel comparison of religiosity levels among the unaffiliated between Canadian provinces, between a number of Western nations and regions as well as between age groups.
Youth Unemployment and Career Scarring: Social-Psychological Mediating Effects?
Authors: Krahn Harvey , Chow Angela
Published: November 2019

Unemployment has career scarring effects for adults, and sometimes for youth, but previous research has not directly demonstrated how this occurs. This 14-year (1985-99) longitudinal study reveals that cumulative unemployment between age 18 and age 32 has a negative effect on both total income and quality of employment at age 32. This scarring effect is not mediated by parallel changes in self-esteem, perceived control or extrinsic work values. Labour market mechanisms, rather than social psychological processes, are likely responsible for the career scarring effect of youth unemployment.
Mediating Environments: Introduction
Authors: Hroch Petra , Stoddart Mark CJ
Published: November 2019

The impetus behind this special issue of the Canadian Journal of Sociology on “Mediating Environments” is to bring together current Canadian scholarship interrogating the relationships among the environment, media, and evolving concepts of mediation. Using “mediation” as a way of conceptualizing the interaction of human and non-human actors – whether environmental, technological, social, political – opens up ways of understanding social relationships to include more-than-human agencies and to reconsider the relations that shape subjects, objects, and identities.
Canada’s Carbon-Capital Elite: A Tangled Web of Corporate Power
Authors: Carroll Bill
Published: November 2019

This article maps the organization of corporate power within Canada’s carbon-capital elite. It charts the elite’s accumulation base, its internal structure as a network of interlocking directorates and its ties to the financial sector and other segments of corporate capital – national and transnational. The analysis identifies a tightly-knit, local network of mid-sized carbon-capital firms linked into the broader power structure largely through mediating relations that involve the largest carbon-capital corporations. The architecture of corporate power resembles an entrenched oligarchy; however, both policy sociology and public sociology can contribute toward checking its power through effective regulation while facilitating discussion of energy democracy as a transformative alternative.
