Sistematización Educación infantil e infancias. Análisis documental del Programa de Educación Preescolar de la Escuela de Educación de la Fundación Universitaria Monserrate - Unimonserrate
Authors: Trujillo Mahecha Diana Milena
Published: December 2018

La Escuela de Educación de la Fundación Universitaria Unimonserrate, como agente formativo de maestros y maestras, ha generado diversos espacios de reflexión y formación que buscan asumir un rol crítico frente a esta labor. Este trabajo de sistematización tuvo como objetivo recuperar, organizar, analizar y reflexionar las producciones escritas del programa de licenciatura en educación preescolar, para identificar las construcciones que se han adelantado entorno a las infancias y a la educación infantil en la formación de docentes. Se respondió a la necesidad de dar cuenta de las dinámicas y experiencias pedagógicas que se han estado construyendo durante los últimos cuatro años en el programa. Partiendo de la posibilidad heurística que tiene la experiencia como motivadora de nuevas preguntas y logros cognoscitivos que aportan conocimiento científico para la construcción de nuevos saberes. Identificar los modos de hacer, las mediaciones del maestro, las concepciones de infancia y de desarrollo infantil, posibilitó visibilizar la realidad de la acción educativa en este ciclo y proponer otros sentidos a las prácticas y a los escenarios pedagógicos en los que las infancias, transitan, habitan y viven.
De generaciones a escuelas: una nueva forma de concebir los derechos humanos
Authors: Torres Justiniani José Ignacio
Published: December 2018

El presente artículo analiza las ventajas de transitar de una concepción de generaciones de derechos humanos a una de escuelas de derechos humanos. La clasificación de generaciones se muestra insuficiente y desfasada y no da cabal respuesta a los retos de los derechos humanos en la actualidad, por tanto, se presenta en esta investigación la posibilidad de abandonar esta clasificación y transitar a una con base en las escuelas de derechos, la cual posee más y mejores elementos para comprender los derechos humanos en el siglo XXI.

Authors: Cuenca Tovar Ronald Edgardo , Beltrán Ramírez Judith Patricia
Published: December 2018

El objetivo principal de esta investigación es realizar un estudio histórico, correlacional y descriptivo, entre la violencia bipartidista vivida en Colombia durante la mitad del siglo XX y el fascismo español de la década de los 30 para establecer un nexo causal entre estos dos fenómenos, aclarando que éste no sería el único factor detonante de la violencia bipartidista en Colombia, pero sí uno de ellos, originado en las políticas coloniales y el proceso independentista, hasta llegar a la adopción de la ideología del fascismo español del General Franco en Colombia.

Using Concept Maps in Law Schools to Foster Meaningful Learning: Evidence from a Pilot Study
Authors: Deplano Rossana
Published: December 2018

Despite its many applications in various higher education settings, concept mapping is not used for teaching predominantly theoretical subjects like Law. Given the peculiarities of learning legal subjects, this article discusses the benefits of using concept maps as a core component of an undergraduate curriculum in Law. Specifically, it presents evidence from a pilot study aimed at assessing the impact of concept mapping as a tool for enhancing deep learning on students enrolled on the compulsory Constitutional and Administrative Law module. An argument is made that utilising concept maps as an integral part of small group teaching activities may be effective in helping students shift the balance from predominantly rote learning to predominantly meaningful learning.
The potential and pitfalls of learning analytics as a tool for supporting student wellbeing
Authors: Ahern Samantha J
Published: December 2018

Learning Analytics is a growing field in UK Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) with many implementations focusing on Early Alert and Student Success, but is this putting the cart before the horse? In the 2017 #StepChange report Universities UK suggested that learning analytics should be aligned to student wellbeing. With reported increases in incidents of student mental ill-health and extra demands being placed on student support services as a consequence this seems an appropriate application of this technology. However, there are a number of concerns related to student privacy and the interpretation and presentation of the analytics. Also, who will be designing and performing interventions? At a time when there is growing concerns around the wellbeing of staff, should we be adding a further burden? Do we risk being eaten by the analytics crocodile? It is clear that to utilise learning analytics in this way poses a number of challenges, but in the information age, when this data is available to us is it moral or legal to remain the caterpillar, knowing nothing of who our students are? With Institute for Public Policy Research stating that “…a majority of HEIs should take measures to ensure that the nature of course content and delivery does not result in academic rigour being sought at the expense of students’ mental health and wellbeing.” we should be doing all we can to adequately and pro-actively support our students.
Walking Several Inches Taller: Student Reflections on a University Conference on the Lived Experience of Refugee Children and Families.
Authors: Walker Rosie
Published: December 2018

The development of higher order thinking skills is an important pedagogic outcome of Foundation and BA degrees within the UK as it enables students to work positively with complex issues within early years practice.  Our annual conference, held at a university within the West Midlands, is one strategy for this development.  The conference under consideration was held in 2017 and was entitled ‘Lived Experience of Refugee Children and their Families.’ This offered students an experience of understanding at first hand the plight of refugee children and families and the implications for practice. At the end of the conference the students were asked to critically reflect on their experience and to present this as a 500 word piece of writing during the fortnight after the conference. Using a hermeneutic and interpretive approach to analyse the writing, three key themes emerged which included: the impact of learning through first-hand experience, changes in perspective previously informed by negative media coverage and developing politicisation and positioning of self as a result of the conference. Students identified a number of actions they would take as a result of their learning. The value of a critically reflective opportunity after conferences was highlighted as an essential part of developing higher order thinking and gaining maximum impact for the student learning from the experience.
Does Sketching promote student learning? A review on undergraduate geology students
Authors: Reichow Marc K.
Published: December 2018

Sketching is an important way in science and other disciplines for illustrating complex concepts with more digestible formats and has therefore long been engrained in the field of Geology either for research or teaching purposes. The following report outlines an assessment of a compulsory second year undergraduate geology module where illustrations are implemented and form a key part of the student’s learning process. The intended learning outcomes are assessed through the submission of a practical folder and an exam including a practical component. The module receives critical but highly positive reviews from the student cohort who achieve overall good marks. However, a key difference in student performance between the practical components of the exam compared to that of the coursework is apparent. Practical components are problem-based and intended to offer the students an opportunity to engage with the complexity of a given task and sketching is intended to increase the student-learning process through exploration. The benefits of sketching are unequivocally clear but it remains open whether students use illustrations to enhance the learning process to their full potential. Introduction of a learning-cycle approach appeared to have improved student performance and is recommended to promote student learning.
Two Titles for the Book of the Dead (P. Turin Cat. 1828/1–2)
Authors: Christiansen Thomas
Published: December 2018

Publication of two hieratic titles for the Book of the Dead appended to two complete New Kingdom papyri inscribed with extracts of BD 78 (P. Turin Cat. 1828/2) and BD 125 (P.

Methodology. In the given work, the questions of the state regulation of economic competition in the national economy of Ukraine are considered through the prism of the indication of the purpose and role of state regulation in this area; through the definition of the system of participants in the competitive environment; through the factors that focused the competitive struggle between domestic producers are noted. Results. Our analysis allows us to assert that the leading role in the functioning of a healthy competitive environment belongs to a state that is able to create all the necessary preconditions for its proper development of competition in a rational economy and to ensure stable positions of economic entities by its economic and legal instruments. The development and improvement of the institutional and legal framework for the regulation of competition increase the competitiveness of the national economy. Practical implications. In the case, when the competition, regulated by law, achieves a balance between supply and demand, and ultimately between social needs and production. Its role is to provide an optimal balance of interests, prevent the acquisition of super-profits by business entities and ensure the standard level of goods’ quality and the necessary volumes of commodity content of the market. Under such conditions, the competitive activity of state bodies is aimed to create and develop a competitive environment, protecting competition, antimonopoly regulation in order to increase the competitiveness of economic entities, stimulating the efficiency of production, better meeting the needs of the consumer. Value/originality. The obtained theoretical and practical results illustrate the state of state regulation of economic competition in Ukraine, which allows predicting the main directions of improvement of mechanisms of influence on the competitive environment of the national economy.
CORRUPTION AS A NEGATIVE SOCIAL PHENOMENON HINDERING THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE
Authors: Semchuk Zhanna , Zharovskaya Iryna , Merdova Olga
Published: December 2018

The purpose of this article is to analyse the current state of fighting corruption as one of the negative phenomena that hinder the economic development of the state, parasitizing the whole body of Ukrainian society. It is emphasized that existing in society, being a product of social relations, corruption permeates various social spheres of society, deforms various groups of social relations. It is appropriate that a narrowly chosen approach to preventing such a negative phenomenon significantly reduces the effect of such an activity and, as a result, does not enable to form an autonomous system that would be resistant to other accompanying risk factors. It is worth paying attention to the problems that are gaining the objective acuteness in recent times and are to oppose the state regulation of the economy by administrative methods and the so-called “freedom” of the development of economic relations. The need for operational intervention in the economy by state institutions through the adoption of managerial decisions, taking into account the growth of the global economic crisis, produces a separate phenomenon – economic corruption. However, the strong link between the social and economic spheres indicates the need for a comprehensive counteraction to such a socially dangerous phenomenon. Along with this, the determinants of the spread of corruption in Ukraine are characterized by their social nature, and less – by an economic one. It is stressed that corruption can be considered as a kind of social corrosion, which erodes and destroys public authorities, in particular, the state and society as a whole. The article reveals the content and significance of corruption, its types and forms. It is indicated that corruption – a social phenomenon that has a social conditionality and rules of social development and influence on social processes. The social nature of corruption manifests itself first of all in the fact that it has historical origins and social preconditions. Practical importance of the scientific research is to find out the causes and consequences of corruption for the economic development of the state, which is extremely important for improving the current legislation of Ukraine, which cannot be effective without conducting a high-quality anti-corruption expertise, built on a clear mechanism for conducting such an examination and reliable, validated methodologies. Methodology. The methodological foundations of the study of corruption are determined by a set of methods of scientific knowledge, which allow considering this problem as a multidimensional, multidisciplinary phenomenon. The research strategy, which is the basis of the integrated approach, grounds, first of all, on the following methodological principles: the formulation of a general theoretical concept; the development of cross-cutting concepts and categories that ensure the unity of the approach to the research object.

Published: December 2018

The purpose of the article is to study the criminalistics of the use of the most common technologies of acquisition of funds of citizens, done by the way of the financial pyramid. The subject of the study is the content of criminal technology of fraudulent way of the financial pyramid. Methodology. The research is based on the use of general scientific and special-scientific methods and methods of scientific knowledge. The historical-legal method allowed determining the genesis of the concepts of “technology of criminal activity” and “financial pyramid”, as well as the formation of scientific and theoretical views on problems and methods of combating them. The comparative legal method was used to compare the doctrinal approaches of legislative regulation to counteract fraud committed by the method of the financial pyramid. The system-structural method contributed to the awareness of the technologies of preparing, committing, and concealing the fraud. The methods of grouping and classification were the basis for the author’s approach to the differentiation of technologies for the acquisition of funds of citizens, depending on the organizational and legal form, under the cover of which a financial pyramid was created. The statistical method is used in the analysis of investigative and judicial practice for ten years. The results of the study showed that the method of financial pyramid used for committing fraud is fully structured and includes criminal technologies for preparing, committing, and concealing the fraud. The combination of separate technologies in the mechanism of the crime is aimed at masking the active phase of criminal activity under civil-law relations, which complicates the timely detection of the signs of the crime both by the victim and by law enforcement agencies. Practical implications. The research carried out the typing of fraudulent techniques using the financial pyramid method, which is the basis for developing and improving methods of disclosure and investigation of crimes. Value/ originality. On the basis of the proposed author’s approach to the differentiation of technologies of criminal activity, it is possible to predict the emergence of the new ways of committing fraud in the financial sector.

Cuerpo y subjetividad en Latinoamérica: resistencia a la cultura somática del capitalismo
Authors: Escobar C. Manuel Roberto
Published: December 2018

A partir de la comprensión del cuerpo como un campo disputado por distintas fuerzas que producen al sujeto en Colombia, y las investigaciones sobre el tema, el artículo identifica dos construcciones corporales que se resisten a la cultura somática de la modernidad en su versión capitalista: el cuerpo mestizo y el cuerpo barroco, que tienen en común su oposición a las prescripciones que las culturas eurocéntricas han tratado de imponerles. Así, de maneras múltiples y creativas el cuerpo despliega una potencia de recreación de la existencia, articulada a subjetividades que sobreviven al capitalismo.

Tendências das pesquisas sobre inclusão na Educação Superior: contribuições da teoria histórico-cultural
Authors: Anache Alexandra Ayach , Madruga Rosely Dos Santos
Published: December 2018

A inclusão na Educação Superior é um dos frutos da luta de pessoas marginalmente excluídas do processo educacional, especialmente considerando-se esse nível de ensino. Esse movimento resulta de anos de luta contra a discriminação do rótulo de incapacidade ante a sociedade segregadora e excludente. Este artigo se propõe a apresentar as contribuições das produções acadêmicas sobre a concepção de inclusão na Educação Superior. A metodologia de pesquisa é uma revisão sistemática da literatura, alicerçada na pesquisa bibliográfica integrativa. Os loci pesquisados foram os portais do Banco de Teses da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (Capes) e da Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD). Aplicamos o seguinte comando de busca: “teoria histórico-cultural” AND “educação superior” AND “inclusão” OR “deficiência”. O recorte temporal foram os anos 2007 – 2017. Os resultados, analisados com base na perspectiva histórico-cultural, indicam que a inclusão na Educação Superior é um desafio por ser um fenômeno recente no campo educacional e exige pesquisas e mudanças no âmbito da infraestrutura, do currículo, do sistema informativo e na formação do corpo docente e dos profissionais que atuam com os estudantes com deficiência.
Urbanizaciones informales en ciudades intermedias. Los casos del Gran San Salvador de Jujuy y Gran San Miguel de Tucumán (Noroeste argentino)
Authors: Boldrini Paula , Matilde Malizia
Published: December 2018

El crecimiento urbano de los aglomerados Gran San Salvador de Jujuy y Gran San Miguel de Tucumán se caracterizó por procesos de fragmentación y segregación socio-espacial que se aceleraron y adquirieron nuevos matices de acuerdo con las actuales lógicas de producción del suelo de las ciudades latinoamericanas. Aparecieron grandes áreas ocupadas por urbanizaciones informales, producto del déficit habitacional emergente. Estas urbanizaciones tienden a asentarse en lugares poco aptos para vivir, con severos problemas ambientales y carentes de infraestructura y servicios básicos. Este trabajo tiene por objetivo estudiar y comparar esta lógica de ocupación del territorio en el proceso de conformación urbana de ambos aglomerados, teniendo en cuenta que son considerados ciudades intermedias en la jerarquía urbana nacional. La lógica de producción del espacio urbano adquirió características comunes y particulares, compartiendo una fuerte asociación entre intereses privados y políticas estatales y dejando de lado las demandas de los sectores vulnerables mediante mecanismos de exclusión.

Authors: Kovačić Mirjana , Silveira Luís
Published: December 2018

Croatia is one of the well - known Mediterranean destinations for nautical tourism which full development potential is waiting to be used. Cultural attractions, indented coastline, numerous islands, climatic and other advantages are not enough. Croatia needs new infra- and supra-structures, which are reflected through investments in new marinas, anchorages and other facilities. Portugal is an Atlantic country, but with a Mediterranean culture due to its proximity and (potentially) benefiting from its extensive shoreline, two archipelagos, and being located in a geographical position where thousands of yachts pass by each year.
The article aims to analyse the accommodation capacities of nautical tourism ports in Croatia and in Portugal. The authors have given an overview of the current situation with an emphasis on the differences and possibilities. The purpose of this article is to analyse the legal objective of nautical tourism and the growing need for accommodation capacities in ports of nautical tourism in both countries. The authors have carried out the research and have analysed data from different years and regions. Although more in Croatia, nautical tourism is a significant part of the national economy in both countries with a strong incentive on the local community. The special goal of this paper is to research into and analyse the economic and ecological impact of nautical tourism through ports of nautical tourism and with a special emphasis on marinas. The result obtained and the critical overview has been presented as one of the important contributions of this paper.

Research on the Energy Efficiency Indicators of Transport Diesel Engines under Transient Operation Conditions
Authors: LebedevasPaulius Sergejus , Rapalis Paulius , Mickevicienė Rima
Published: December 2018

In this study, we have investigated the efficiency of transport diesel engines CAT3512B-HD in transient braking and acceleration modes in 2M62M locomotives. A comparative analysis of the diesel engine performance has been performed at speeds of power increase and braking ranging from 4–5 kW/s to 17–18 kW/s. A decrease in the fuel economy occurred, and the main reason for it (compared with the steady-state operating condition at qcycl = idem) has been found to be the deterioration of the mechanical efficiency coefficient due to the loss of the additional equipment kinetic energy of the engine. The efficiency decreased by 3–3.5% under power increase operations and by 10–14% in the braking modes. The original methodology for the evaluation of the diesel engine parameters registered by the engine control units (ECU) in the engine operating conditions, mathematical modelling application AVL BOOST, and analytical summaries in artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been used. The errors in the obtained results have been 5–8% at a determination coefficient of 0.97–0.99.

Explorations into the nature and function of compassion
Authors: Gilbert Paul
Published: December 2018

Compassion has become a major focus for international research in prosocial behaviour. This paper explores the evolutionary origins of caring and how recently evolved cognitive competencies create human compassion. While some see compassion as linked to an emotional or affective state, others root compassion in an evolved motivation and social mentality. The paper will briefly explore fears, blocks and resistances to compassion, how compassion can be understood as a social mentality and the increasing focus on compassionate mind training.
The Psychological Science Collective: A collaborative data collection network to improve the generalizability of psychological science
Authors: McPhetres Jonathon , Nguyen Thuy-vy Thi
Published: December 2018

In this manuscript, we describe a model for collaborative data collection. It is well known that reliance on small, homogeneous samples of western students severely undermines the generalizability and replicability of research in psychological science. Without widespread implementation of a system to improve how data is collected and accessed, researchers will continue to rely on convenience samples. Here, we propose the Psychological Science Collective (PSC) as a solution. The goal of the PSC is to raise the standards for data collection in the psychological sciences and make well-powered, representative samples more commonplace. Creating a self-sustaining network where collaborating labs can pool their resources and gain access to larger and more representative samples from around the world will result in a net increase in sample size and generalizability across the field as a whole. For example, simulations suggest that ~150 labs of different sizes can pool their resources to conduct around ~50 studies with an average sample size exceeding N = 500 over the course of 12 weeks.

Background/objective: Overweight is linked to inflammatory and neuroendocrine responses potentially prompting deregulations in biological systems harmful to the brain, particularly to the prefrontal cortex. This structure is crucial for executive performance, ultimately supervising behaviour. Thus, in the present work, we aimed to test the relationship between allostatic load increase, a surrogate of chronic physiological stress, and core executive functions, such as cognitive flexibility, inhibitory control, and working memory. Method: Forty-seven healthy-weight and 56 overweight volunteers aged from 21 to 40 underwent medical and neuropsychological examination. Results: Overweight subjects exhibited a greater allostatic load index than healthy-weight individuals. Moreover, the allostatic load index was negatively related to inhibitory control. When separated, the link between allostatic load index and cognitive flexibility was more marked in the overweight group. Conclusions: An overweight status was linked to chronic physiological stress. The inverse relationship between the allostatic load index and cognitive flexibility proved stronger in this group. Set-shifting alterations could sustain rigid-like behaviours and attitudes towards food.
Does revolutionary politics reconfigure Islamist women’s agency organizationally? The case of the Muslim Sisters of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt (1928-2013)
Authors: Tadros Mariz , Tadros Mariz
Published: December 2018

For the first time in eighty years, one of the oldest and most important religious movements striving to establish an Islamic state, the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt reached the apex of political power between 2011-2013, after decades of containment and sometimes repression. Against this backdrop this paper explores how the dramatic power reconfigurations associated with the Egyptian revolution of 2011 and its aftermath impacted on the agency of the Muslim Sisters belonging to the Muslim Brotherhood both internally within the organization and in terms of their public roles. The paper is based on empirical data collected between 2007-2012 and complemented with secondary literature both in Arabic and English. The paper aims to make a contribution to understanding the extent to which political empowerment of women and men in Islamist movements affects internal gender hierarchies through a historicized and contextualized approach.

A review of the popular book, Generation M: Young Muslims Changing the World, by advertising industry professional and Muslim writer, Shelina Janmohamed.

Muslim women are turning to religion in greater numbers, but Janmohamed's characterisation of young, modern Muslims leaves out those who define themselves in other ways - including those who support mainstream feminism.
Christian Fundamentalists in the UK
Authors: Dhaliwal Sukhwant , Dhaliwal Sukhwant
Published: December 2018

This article considers two streams of Christian Right mobilisation in the UK – the Christian Peoples Alliance and the Conservative Christian Fellowship – in the context of neoliberalism and resurgent communitarianism. The article notes their roles as moral swords of justice in challenging a lack of local democracy, the weight of multi-national corporations, racism and hostility towards migrants. Conversely this article also shows how that same morality underlines an assault on women’s reproductive rights and enables the perpetuation of Christian supremacy and anti-Muslim sentiment within the context of a national turn to communitarianism and a discourse about British values and cohesion. The article concludes by highlighting the conditions within which these Christian Right organisations garner political space and legitimacy, the registers they utilise to make their claims and the specific aspects of their interventions and ideology that make them fundamentalist formations.
No man’s land of modern poetry
Authors: Kozlov V. I.
Published: December 2018

V. Kozlov, a critic specializing in contemporary poetry, discusses the major issues plaguing this branch of the literary process: such as the ‘synoptic’ quality of modern critical work, vitriolic conflicts between guilds, absence of a publication with a comprehensive overview of the current developments in poetry, etc. The author finds that the biggest problem of modern poetic criticism is that, unlike the Western school of literary criticism, it is unable to take in the big picture of all ongoing developments in modern poetry, and its every attempt to reconstruct it is guided by its subjective perceptions. He suggests that this could be ameliorated if the critics would refer to the philological school and return to universal criteria for the sake of a holistic literary process.
The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner by James Hogg.  An English gothic novel in the context of moral philosophy
Authors: Markova I. O.
Published: December 2018

The article is concerned with the unique ethical and aesthetic features of gothic fiction between the 18th and 19th centuries, and its representation in James Hogg’s novelThe Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner. Lofty ideals in the novels by A. Radcliff, M. G. Lewis, and C. Maturin often showed strong ties with moral philosophy (its concepts of benevolence, sin as the opposite of freedom, and sense and sensibility as the sources of virtue), permeating 18th-century discussions about morality along with reflections on the elevated and the picturesque. On the artistic plane of the gothic novel, these ideas create two principal oppositions, corresponding to ethical and aesthetic levels: ‘the natural and the unnatural’, and ‘freedom and non-freedom’. They are also present in Hogg’s novel, although represented in a different way. While the ‘natural/unnatural’ dichotomy is mostly a matter of changing the angle for the story’s perception (so that the reader might follow the events from the viewpoint of the pursuer rather than the pursued), though not without interesting aesthetic derivatives, the ‘freedom/non-freedom’ opposition marks a more modern aesthetical transition from the outside world to a fictional one.
Review of Bit-Yunan, Y. and Feldman, D. (2016). Vasily Grossman: A literary biography in a historical-literary context. Moscow: NEOLIT. 248 pages.
Authors: Korkunov V. V.
Published: December 2018

The book by Yury Bit-Yunan and David Feldman Vasily Grossman: A Literary Biography in a Historical-Literary Context is an attempt to reconstruct the writer’s biography. Using copious evidence from archives, the authors set out to demythologize the pervading image of a non-conformist writer. They also try to reveal on whose accusations his novel was confiscated by the authorities. The reviewer examines the arguments supplied by Bit-Yunan and Feldman, and criticizes them for their invectives against earlier biographers, in particular, Semyon Lipkin.
Review of Urakova, A. and Fokin, S., eds. (2017). Poe, Baudelaire, Dostoevsky: Splendour and misery of national genius. Moscow: NLO. 496 pages.
Authors: Polovinkina O. I.
Published: December 2018

The review deals with a monograph produced by a group of authors devoted to the interconnectedness of works by Poe, Baudelaire, and Dostoevsky. Putting names together creates a comparative plot, which encourages unconventional thinking. Poe is pictured as the central figure that influences Baudelaire’s and Dostoevsky’s artistic principles. The triple comparison offers a chance to take a new look at Poe’s literary legacy. It is suggested that Baudelaire finds his poetic voice in translating Poe’s works, and becomes an important intermediary for Dostoevsky, who reads his translations. The subtitle mentions ‘national genius’, which puts each of the three in a special spotlight, underscoring their complete independence, separation from others – their tragic solitude – in the unfolding prospect. There is an exchange of opinions between scholars from various schools and national academic traditions – a lively interaction of ideas is palpable and engaging, contributing to the book’s consistency. The dialogue-like aspect of the book is also determined by several authors dealing simultaneously with subjects, so that they become leitmotifs. The review considers each of the book’s four parts.
Afro-Communitarianism and the Question of Rights
Authors: Chimakonam Jonathan O. , Nweke Victor C. A.
Published: December 2018

We argue that Menkiti and Gyekye – the forerunners in Afro-communitarianism,
to different extents both trivialise the notion of
human rights. While Menkiti prioritises community and denies human
rights, Gyekye who upholds human rights subsumes these to the community.
We contend that both are however mistaken in their trivial conceptions
of human rights. To clarify the confusion, we propose that the
notion of rights in Afro-communitarianism can have two possible senses
namely, rights as participatory and rights as entitlements and that the
failure to recognise these senses was what led Menkiti to a fringed position
and Gyekye to a difficult position. We then conclude that Afro-communitarianism,
in both Menkiti and Gyekye harbours a certain
notion of rights contrary to Menkiti’s assumption but it is not one that
accommodates the idea of inalienability contrary to Gyekye’s suggestion.
