Published: November 2022

The aging of population leads to the outcome that number of social care sector clients grows steadily. Hence the research highlighted that average age of the workforce in social care sector is also rising. An important question is how to attract and retain young people in the care sector for the elderly in the context of an aging society with the growing importance of the care economy. The study aims to reveal the factors motivating young people (18-29 years old) to employ and their attitudes towards work in the elderly care sector to. The research investigated the links between prosocial motivation and the attitudes of unemployed young people registered in the Employment Service toward work in the elderly care sector.

The results of the study identified main directions, which could encourage more young people to get involved in the elderly care sector: promoting prosocial motivation of the individuals, increasing the flexibility of social services for the elderly and ensuring good working conditions. The study revealed significant role of the employment service as an intermediary between the young person and the institution providing social services and changing public attitudes towards work in the care sector for the elderly.

Portal vein thrombosis and pylephlebitis following laparoscopic appendectomy in a patient with esophageal varices
Authors: David Kelter David Kelter , McGowan Alexandria , Chi Hsu-Tsai
Published: November 2022

Pylephlebitis is defined as infectious suppurative thrombosis of the portal vein. The etiologies of pylephlebitis are variable, however, nearly all cases represent a rare albeit serious complication of an intraabdominal infectious process due to the regional portal venous system drainage. Appendicitis is a well-documented cause of pylephlebitis. A 1995 review of 19 cases of reported pylephlebitis demonstrated appendicitis as the second most common pre-disposing etiology in the development of pylephlebitis, with Bacteroides and E. coli being the most commonly cultured organisms. The utility of therapeutic anticoagulation following diagnosis is presently undetermined. We describe a case of pylephlebitis presenting 5 days status post laparoscopic appendectomy for uncomplicated acute appendicitis in a 62-year-old adult male with a history of cirrhosis and esophageal varices. Considering the patient’s history of cirrhosis and resultant esophageal varices, this uncertainty regarding the use of anticoagulation was particularly problematic. Given the lack evidence-based guidelines, a multidisciplinary approach weighing the risks and benefits of systemic anticoagulation was employed. Ultimately, the decision was made to proceed with therapeutic anticoagulation under close supervision with serial imaging to identify thrombus propagation and/or recanalization. While the patient did not demonstrate evidence of recanalization after 58 days of therapy, the throm-bus did indeed fail to propagate further. Clarification regarding the utility of anticoagulation in the setting of pylephlebitis in conjunction with risk stratification based on individual patient factors is certainly warranted to optimize future clinical outcomes.

Published: November 2022

RESUMO Este estudo tem como objetivo fornecer contribuições para o tratamento lexicográfico de topônimos, com foco na produção de um dicionário de topônimos de Mato Grosso do Sul. Fundamenta-se, para tanto, em pressupostos teórico-metodológicos da Toponímia – Dick (1990a, 1990b, 1995, 2001, 2004), Dauzat (1947), Backheuser (1952) – e da Lexicografia – Biderman (1984), Krieger (2006), Porto Dapena (2002), Haensch e Omeñaca (2004). O corpus , constituído por 85 nomes de distritos subordinados aos 79 municípios do estado, foi extraído do Sistema de Dados do Projeto ATEMS. Entendendo-se que um dicionário de topônimos pode abrigar informações linguísticas e enciclopédicas para atender a um público diversificado, elegeu-se como foco principal deste artigo a discussão de itens que devem compor os verbetes dessa categoria de dicionário, particularmente os relativos a topônimos de acidentes humanos: a taxionomia (DICK, 1990b) e as causas denominativas (DICK, 1990a, 1990b). Entre os resultados, destaca-se que, no corpus examinado, em relação à taxionomia, sobressaem as de natureza antropocultural – especialmente as ligadas à religiosidade e à homenagem a pessoas; enquanto, em se tratando de causas denominativas, observa-se uma tendência significativa de translação toponímica (DICK, 2001), considerando-se que muitos dos topônimos dos distritos são também nomes de outros acidentes geográficos físicos ou humanos do mesmo município.
TEACHING IN THE PANDEMIC ERA: TECHNOLOGIES IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING TO THE DEAF
Authors: MORAES Antonio Henrique Coutelo de , ALMEIDA Matheus Lucas de
Published: November 2022

ABSTRACT The world has been facing the greatest challenge of the 21st century since March 2020, when educational institutions in Brazil had to interrupt their classroom activities, adopting productive isolation and remote teaching. From this perspective, we felt compelled to produce this qualitative work, of a bibliographic character, to draw reflections on technologies in the teaching of English to deaf students in the Pandemic Era. Data show that the world has been changing and a considerable number of teachers and students are facing some challenges due to it, especially as the school reality had to move to a completely different space. Therefore, the public education system needed to reinvent itself to make it possible to share knowledge through digital information and communication technology. Bearing that in mind, we described and indicated possible uses for seven apps and extensions, which allow deaf students to learn through visual, contextualized activities. In conclusion, we advocate that Brazil must invest in scientific research, in strengthening education systems, in education measures, in continuing teacher education and training, and in the development of educational policies that address the new demands of education.
Ethics of virtue applied to medical deontology
Authors: Sganzerla Anor , Siqueira José Eduardo de , Guérios Teri Roberto
Published: November 2022

Abstract Throughout history, medical ethics has taken on different perspectives. Nowadays, the indisputable understanding seems to be that of the supremacy of normative ethics as the one that best meets the needs of the relationship between medical professionals and their patients. Given this context, this investigation sought to understand how the ethics of virtues can contribute so that medical deontology can be effective and virtuous targeting the well-being of patients. To seek this understanding, a bibliographic search of narrative and critical theoretical-conceptual character was carried out. The hypothesis is that although deontology is the most accepted and practiced guide in the professional-patient relationship, if it is not accompanied by an ethics of virtue to guide medical action, there is no guarantee that the mere fulfillment of the rule is virtuous with regard to the patient's well-being.
Ética de las virtudes aplicada a la deontología médica
Authors: Sganzerla Anor , Siqueira José Eduardo de , Guérios Teri Roberto
Published: November 2022

Resumen La ética médica adoptó diferentes perspectivas a lo largo de la historia. Parece existir actualmente una indiscutible supremacía de que la ética normativa es la que mejor responde a las necesidades de los profesionales médicos y sus pacientes. Por tanto, esta investigación buscó evaluar las posibles contribuciones de la ética de las virtudes para que la deontología médica pueda ser eficaz y virtuosa con vistas al bien del paciente. Para comprenderla, se realizó una investigación bibliográfica teórica-conceptual narrativa y crítica. Se partió de la hipótesis de que cuando la deontología, a pesar de ser la guía más aceptada y practicada en la relación del profesional con el paciente, no va acompañada de una ética de las virtudes destinada a guiar la conducta médica, no está garantizado que el mero cumplimiento de las reglas la haga virtuosa con respecto al bien del paciente.
Hippocratic Oath: a critical analysis
Authors: Brener Pedro Zanetta , Lichtenstein Arnaldo
Published: November 2022

Abstract The Hippocratic Oath is, perhaps, the most important text of medical ethics in the Western world. Widely discussed since the Middle Ages by students and philosophers, even with the so-called end of Hippocratic medicine in favor of the scientific method, the document still raises essential ethical questions and is adopted, with variations, in various educational institutions worldwide. This review analyzes the original texts, presents some of the interpretations it received throughout history and its readings and versions in different languages, and offers a modern and commented translation of the original in Greek. Finally, its adoption in medical schools today is discussed.

Authors: Castro Marcio Rodrigues de , Pereira Alexandre de Araújo , Bataglia Patrícia Unger Raphael
Published: November 2022

Resumo A fim de avaliar a competência moral de estudantes de medicina, este artigo compara diferentes momentos do curso, identificando aspectos sociodemográficos e acadêmicos relacionados a essa competência e discutindo a ferramenta de avaliação. Trata-se de estudo quantitativo observacional transversal, com aplicação da versão estendida do Teste de Competência Moral, de Lind, e questionário sociodemográfico-acadêmico. Identificaram-se escores médios baixos nos períodos avaliados – com média do primeiro período superior aos demais – e comportamento destoante do “dilema do médico” em relação aos demais, independentemente do período. Detectaram-se escores de competência moral baixos em todos os períodos avaliados, com declínio ou estagnação no decorrer do curso e “fenômeno de segmentação” do teste, e não se identificou correlação relevante das variáveis sociodemográficas e acadêmicas. Por fim constatou-se que escores dos períodos iniciais inferiores aos descritos na literatura prévia podem sugerir tendência geracional.
Os espaços representacionais das ocupações urbanas na intersecção entre as lutas macro e micropolíticas
Authors: Nakano Anderson Kazuo , Gonçalves Thiago Andrade
Published: November 2022

Resumo O objetivo deste texto é analisar dados qualitativos dos espaços representacionais das Ocupações Urbanas (OUs) Carolina Maria de Jesus e Nova Canudos, realizadas no primeiro semestre de 2021 pelo Movimento dos Trabalhadores Sem Teto na periferia do município de São Paulo. O conceito de “espaços representacionais” é parte da teoria da produção do espaço de Henri Lefebvre (1991), na qual o autor o articula com os conceitos de “práticas espaciais” e “representações do espaço”. Neste texto, utilizou-se de métodos de análise de dados qualitativos (obtidos em texto de Guilherme Boulos e vídeos sobre as OUs analisadas) para demonstrar os atributos sociopolíticos dos espaços representacionais daquelas OUs. Esses espaços representacionais expressam as lutas macro e micropolíticas cujas características foram sistematizadas e sintetizadas em um quadro fundamentado em categorias elaboradas por Suely Rolnik (2018) como parte de sua teoria das insurgências macro e micropolíticas. Do ponto de vista das lutas macropolíticas, denunciam as desigualdades e injustiças sociais e reivindicam direitos coletivos. Do ponto de vista das lutas micropolíticas, constituem-se como atos políticos que anunciam modos de bem viver, conviver e morar em bases solidárias.

Authors: Gomes Felipe Guimarães , Tonucci João , Almeida Renan Pereira
Published: November 2022

Resumo Diante da crescente urbanização e expansão da fronteira urbano-imobiliária sobre o território das metrópoles, este trabalho analisa o mercado informal de moradia na Colônia Juliano Moreira, bairro localizado na região de Jacarepaguá, zona oeste do Rio de Janeiro. Investigam-se as características desse mercado quanto à sua estrutura, aos bens transacionados, às instituições atuantes e aos agentes participantes. Essa análise utiliza dados de anúncios de imóveis e entrevistas semiestruturadas com agentes-chave locais. A partir das entrevistas realizadas, nota-se que a falta de segurança nos contratos firmados é uma característica fundamental do mercado analisado. Há uma estrutura oligopólica e alta demanda pelos imóveis ofertados, conferindo enorme poder de mercado aos ofertantes. A população vulnerável que demanda moradia nessa área depende sobremaneira de laços de lealdade e confiança, que surgem como instituições importantes para o funcionamento da dinâmica imobiliária local. Três instituições mostram-se particularmente relevantes: a associação dos moradores, a milícia e a relação de confiança e lealdade presente nos acordos mercantis.

Resumen Se modifican los nombres y el propio término informalidad se encuentra en disputa, sin embargo, estas formas de acceso al hábitat se reproducen en numerosas ciudades como respuesta a una demanda habitacional no satisfecha ni por el mercado inmobiliario, ni por el estado, asumiendo lógicas y procesos propios de cada territorio. Para el caso de la ciudad de Córdoba se observa en los últimos años, las Tomas de tierra una como forma de ocupación informal particularmente recurrente. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar los procesos de producción y transformación de las Tomas de tierra como formas de hábitat informal a nivel espacial y urbano. Metodológicamente se recurre al análisis espacial de las transformaciones del ambiente construido de las Tomas y su vinculación con otros datos espaciales y socio-demográficos, basados en análisis de imágenes satelitales y Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG). Los resultados alcanzados evidencian procesos colectivos con una dinámica acelerada de transformación espacial que se relaciona en gran medida con las características del entorno en el que se localizan y que resultan particulares a esta forma de construcción territorial. Asimismo, se considera que los mismos resultan de aporte en el conocimiento de las lógicas informales que colaboran en la generación de políticas públicas adecuadas.

The effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on the performance of academic journals: the case of Turkey
Authors: DOĞAN Nuri Özgür , BORA Burak
Published: November 2022

Abstract Since the beginning of 2020, “Covid-19” has affected the whole world in an unprecedented way in modern times. It is inevitable that this pandemic, which has negatively affected many fields, will also have an impact on academic journals. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on the performance of academic journals. In our study, a “Data Envelopment Analysis” methodology with 3 inputs and 3 outputs was used to determine the relative “performance of the journals”. Within the scope of the study, 109 journals published in “Turkey” and scanned in “Web of Science” indexes were examined. Results show that eleven journals were efficient in 2019, while in 2020 this number decreased to seven. Four fields have been positively affected by the pandemic and journals publishing in these fields have increased their efficiencies. Eighteen fields were adversely affected by the pandemic and the efficiency of journal publishing in these fields decreased. Eleven fields and journals publishing in these fields maintained their efficiency both before and during the pandemic. As the Covid-19 pandemic is not over yet, our data is limited. In the coming years, more detailed and comprehensive studies can be carried out with more extensive data and a further number of journals from different countries.
MODERNIZAÇÃO-RESTAURADORA E TRANSFORMISMO NA POLÍTICA DO ENSINO MÉDIO PERNAMBUCANO: ESTRATÉGIAS DE APASSIVAMENTO DA HEGEMONIA EMPRESARIAL
Authors: Barbosa John Mateus , Silva Jamerson Antônio Almeida da
Published: November 2022

O texto examina a dinâmica político-ideológica e o conteúdo da hegemonia empresarial na política para o ensino médio em Pernambuco. A análise se debruça sobre os intelectuais organizadores da política, os aparelhos privados de hegemonia, as orientações político-ideológicas e o comportamento dos setores e representantes dos subalternos frente ao Procentro e, posteriormente, ao Programa de Educação Integral. Para tanto, foi realizada a análise de documentos oficiais e de instituições privadas à luz de categorias gramscianas, como destaque para revolução passiva e transformismo. Conclui-se que a hegemonia empresarial na política em tela expressa um movimento de modernização-restauradora da racionalidade gerencial, revisando aspectos ideológicos secundários à hegemonia empresarial para incorporar, residualmente, demandas dos subalternos. Isso resulta num projeto, no plano da aparência, mais “social” e “inclusivo” de gerencialismo, que, por sua vez, ocasiona em fenômenos de transformismos como expressões de apassivamento das oposições ao modelo gerencial. Destaca-se também que o movimento de modernização-restauradora analisada em Pernambuco é parte de um bloco histórico dirigido por setores progressistas da política e da sociedade civil que caracteriza uma revolução passiva à brasileira e seu social-liberalismo (CASTELO, 2011).
Does the Use of E-Scooters Bring Well-Being Outcomes for the User?: A Study Based on UK Shared E-Scooter Trials
Authors: Grant-Muller Susan , Yang Yuanxuan , Panter Jenna , Woodcock James
Published: November 2022

E-scooters are a relatively new mode of travel in the UK and their impacts on physical and mental health are uncertain. Although their use does not involve physical activity directly, through walking or cycling, they might provide other well-being benefits. Such effects will likely vary according to the user and the context. We aim to assess whether use of shared e-scooters is associated with wider well-being and mental health, arising for example from for example access to local services, exposure to the natural environment, reduced stress, and a perception of having done some exercise. Our secondary question is whether potential well-being impacts vary across population sub-groups. A total of 2,402 responses to an online survey completed during a one-month period (August to September 2021) by shared e-scooters users operated by a sole UK provider. Personal well-being from e-scooter use was assessed using questions on general levels of stress and mood (before, during or after e-scooter journeys), and features of the journey such as exposure to the natural environment and perception of air quality. All well-being questions were reported using a five-point Likert scale. Analysis indicates that people with protected characteristics and those who have personal challenges, for example with respect to personal mobility, are more likely to incur well-being benefits. The results presented are part of on-going research, with the next steps being to measure changes over time. The findings may be of interest to policymakers and the research community.
A tetracycline hydrochloride-loaded SiO2/polycaprolactone composite from bamboo stem for controlled drug release study
Authors: Essien Enobong R. , Atasie Violette N. , Scott Samson T. , Ajayi Opeyemi A.
Published: November 2022

A controlled drug delivery system is preferable to traditional drug administration because it can supply the drug continuously and ensure on-demand bioavailability. The production of silica/polymer composite delivery material is expensive due to the use of alkoxysilane silica precursors. As bamboo is an abundant plant in Africa, we investigated the use of bamboo stems as an alternative silica starting material. The ash from the bamboo stem was mixed with polycaprolactone (PCL) solution to produce a (SiO2/PCL) composite, which was then loaded with the drug, tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH), to test in vitro degradability and controlled-release in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to examine the structure, phase composition, and chemical bond properties of the material. The TCH release profile was determined using an ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometer. The SiO2/PCL composite showed a high capacity for drug loading. The composite released TCH in a consistent and sustained way, and showed regulated degradability in PBS. As a result, the use of bamboo stem-derived silica in the formulation of SiO2/PCL for continuous TCH delivery shows considerable cost-benefit potential for a safe, regulated drug delivery strategy.
Significance:

This study shows the benefit of using bamboo stem as an alternative silica source to alkoxysilanes.
SiO2/PCL composites can be employed for the sustained delivery of drugs while providing congruent degradation.
This study can serve as a benchmark for further utilisation of bamboo stem as a low-cost silica precursor.

Authors: GÖKÇAY Gönül , BAĞIŞ Kadir Okan
Published: November 2022

Aim: The aim of this research is to examine the perceptions of occupational anxiety and preparedness for disasters of Pre-Hospital Emergency Health Services (PHEHS) employees. Method: 259 pre-hospital emergency health care professionals participated in the descriptive study. In the study, data were collected using a socio-demographic information questionnaire, occupational anxiety scale for emergency health workers and disaster preparedness perception scale. In the study, the data were evaluated by using descriptive statistics of number, percentage, mean and standard deviation. Independent groups t-test analysis, one-way analysis of variance and Pearson correlation analysis were applied to the difference between groups. Statistical significance level was accepted as p<0.05. Results: The mean age of the participants was 27.66±5.24 years. Participants got 86.61±18.83 points from the Occupational Anxiety Scale and 111.52±22.12 points from the Disaster Preparedness Scale. A statistically significant result was found between the Occupational Anxiety Level Scale of the participants and their marital status, place of residence, working year, institution they work, Satisfaction with the profession and thinking of quitting/resigning the profession. A statistically significant result was found between the participants' perception of disaster preparedness scale and their marital status, place of residence, income level, institution they work for, and their status of receiving training on disaster management. A very weak positive correlation was found between the participants' Occupational Anxiety scale total and its sub-dimensions and the perception of disaster preparedness and all sub-dimensions. Conclusion: It was found that the health professionals participating in the study had a high level of professional anxiety and disaster preparedness perceptions. Suggestions were made in line with the results.

Objective:This study was planned to examine the factors affecting the quality of life of elderly individuals in the context of health perception and health anxiety. Method: The study is of descriptive type and was conducted with the participation of 374 elderly individuals. In the study, data were collected using the General Information Form, the Elderly Quality of Life Scale, the Health Perception Scale(SAS), and the Health Anxiety Scale. Data, number, percentage and mean values were evaluated using multiple linear regression analysis. The level of significance was accepted as p<0.05 in the statistical analysis. Results: The mean age of the participants was 71.18±5.74. Participants got 28.92±8.13 points from the Quality of Life Scale Total, 54.87±9.58 points from the Health Perception Scale Total, and 43.57±10.53 points from the Health Anxiety Scale Total. It explains the participants' Quality of Life (32.1% of total variance) and sub-dimensions (Control 24.4%; Autonomy 20.2%; Pleasure 21.7%; Self-Realization 19.8%). Conclusion:It was found that the elderly individuals participating in the study had a moderate quality of life, had higher than average health perceptions and had high levels of health anxiety. As a result of the established multiple linear regression, it was found that health perception sub-dimensions and health anxiety were effective/predicted on quality of life. In particular, it is recommended that public health nurses pay attention to these issues in education and quality of life studies to be carried out for elderly individuals, and that studies based on health perception and health anxiety should be carried out with individual and collective organizations(congress, conference).
The Category of Legitimate Interests in the Context of a Single Concept of Legal Understanding
Authors: Chernyk I. I.
Published: November 2022

The paper investgates problems of legal proceedings in civil and arbitration cases and ways of their resolution using procedural possibilities conceivable in the philosophical and legal formulation of the problem. Interests (legitimate interests) have been chosen as a very indicative and demanded category with effective instrumental properties. The study of their categorical features is included in the context of the analysis of a single concept of legal understanding. The unity of the concept of legal understanding as a common rational basis for taking into account the achievements of non-legal sciences, primarily philosophy, in the formation of a consistent view of law is opposed to the competitive «uniqueness» of traditional views on the essence of law and appropriation of a monopoly on truth. When revealing the unity of the concept in relation to the unity and generality of the approach to the philosophical and legal, general theoretical ideas of law, problems of the theory of the civil process, and their subject law enforcement imprint, special attention is paid to the analysis of the category of the ideal and transition from it to the category of the rational in the form of a comparison of personal and social experience, as well as their association with the form of judicial protection of rights and interests.
On the Need to Strengthen Constitutional Legal Guarantees for Access to Criminal Justice
Authors: Sasykin K. Yu.
Published: November 2022

The paper examines the problems of the stage of initiating a criminal case in terms of the implementation of constitutional and legal guarantees for access to criminal justice. The author points out that, despite its importance, in practice, the process of establishing the events of crimes, as well as identifying and exposing the perpetrators, encounters a number of traditional problems. The issues arising at the initial stage of the criminal process occupy the leading position among these problems; the stage of criminal case initiation is also referred to as the «pre-investigation verification of a crime report» stage. Given the practice and doctrinal points of view, attention is given to the need to change the rules of domestic criminal procedural legislation in terms of transforming the stage of initiating a criminal case existing in the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation as preventing the timely detection and investigation of this type of crime, creating a negative image of public authorities. It is also important to strengthen criminal liability in relation to special subjects for evading the fulfillment of the duty of criminal prosecution

Authors: Aratskiy I. D.
Published: November 2022

In today’s world, energy is one of the fundamental industries and is essential for economic development, poverty eradication and adaptation to the effects of climate change. Access to sustainable energy sources (RES) is the foundation of modern sustainable energy, and international law has a key role to play in achieving such access. The aim of the study is a theoretical consideration and generalization of the positions of modern scientists within the framework of international energy law in terms of access to RES. The genesis of access to sustainable energy sources in the writings of scholars on international energy law originates from the work of Professor A. D. Bradbrook, who considers such access primarily through the prism of international human rights law and notes the paramount task of achieving universal access to RES in order to reduce poverty. R. D. Heffron formulated the access under study as one of the basic principles of international energy law, at the same time, the main place in the author’s works in this area is given to the concept of energy justice. S. Bruce noted the high importance of the Sustainable Energy for All (SE4All) initiative, the International Renewable Energy Agency and Sustainable Development Goal No. 7 in achieving researched access, and also highlighted a number of international agreements as instruments of particular importance for access to RES.

Anadolu’nun irfan çağı olarak tarihe geçen XIII. yüzyılda teşekkül etmiş ve uzun bir müddet oldukça geniş bir alanda soysal ve kültürel hayatı şekillendirmiş iki ayrı kurum olan Ahilik ve Mevleviliğin, zaman içinde tarihçiler tarafından iki farklı düşünce yapısını temsil ettiği için sert bir çatışma içinde oldukları iddia edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada kuruluş dönemlerinden itibaren Ahilerin ve Mevlevilerin iddia edildiği gibi bir çatışma ortamı içinde olup olmadıkları sorusuna gerek Mevlevi gerekse Ahi kaynakları ve de tespit edilebilen arşiv kayıtları üzerinden cevap aranacaktır.
The Politics of Kara Mahmud Pasha Bushati Towards Montenegro in the 1780s
Authors: STAMATOVIĆ Aleksandar
Published: November 2022

Kara Mahmud Pasha Bushati was the son of the Vizier of Shkodra, Mehmed Pasha, from whom he inherited the title of Vizier of Scutari. The second half of the eighteenth century and the first decade of the nineteenth century was a period of weakening of the Ottoman state because of the appearance of renegades rebelling against the state. During the last two decades of the eighteenth century, one of the most famous renegades was Kara Mahmud Pasha Bushati. The centre of his movement was in the north of modern-day Albania. This movement spread to parts of modern-day Macedonia, Kosovo, Bosnia and Montenegro. It was logical that his desire was to gain control over eternally rebellious Montenegro where elements of statehood were already beginning to be formed. Since Montenegro was territorially closest to him, he wanted to have the Lake Shkodra basin under his control. His first attack on Montenegro in 1785 was successful, when he broke through to the capital Cetinje and burnt down the seat of the Metropolitanate, the Cetinje Monastery. However, he did not consolidate his power in Montenegro. The politics of Kara Mahmud Pasha Bushati towards Montenegro involved his relations with the central government in Constantinople, with Austria, Russia and the Venetian and Dubrovnik Republics.

Antalya limanı, Eski Çağ’dan bugüne önemli yerlerdendir. Selçuklular kale ile limana büyük önem vermişler ve tamir edip kullanmışlar, ayrıca limanda bir tersane kurmuşlardır. Antalya ve çevresi, Selçuklular ve Tekeoğulları zamanında ticari ehemmiyetini korumuştur. Bu ticaret Bizanslılar, Cenevizliler ve Venedikliler döneminde gelişmiştir. Antalya, XV. ve XVI. yüzyıllarda Anadolu’nun önemli ihraç merkezi olmuştur. Antalya’nın ticari durumunu XVI. asrın ortalarına ait bir gümrük defterinden öğrenmekteyiz. Gümrük defterinde Antalya iskelesine gelen ve giden gemilerle sandallar ve bunlardaki mallar hakkında bilgi verilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, XV-XIX. yüzyıllarda Antalya limanı ve Antalya gümrüğü detaylı şekilde incelenmiştir. Ayrıca Antalya dışındaki Güneybatı Anadolu ve Orta Anadolu Sahilinde bulunan limanların ticari ve ekonomik durumu değerlendirilmiştir. Çünkü bu limanlardan yapılan ticaret Antalya gümrüğünü doğrudan ve dolaylı yoldan etkilemektedir. Bu doğrultuda Meğri, Kalkan, Kaş, Kekova, Finike, Adrasan, Olympos, Kemer, Side, Alâiye ve zaman zaman liman gibi kullanılan ve denizle bağlantısı olan Aksu, Köprüçay, Manavgat gibi nehir iskelelerinden bahsedilecektir.
“Osmanlı da Mültezimlik Müessesesi: Ankara da Yahudi Mültezimler Örneği (17. Yüzyıl)
Authors: ÇETİNKAYA Canan
Published: November 2022

Ankara 17. yüzyıl Osmanlı şehirleri arasında ticaret yolları ve ticari özellikleri ile öne çıkan şehirlerden biriydi. Osmanlı kent tarihi çalışmalarına konu olan Ankara’da 17. yüzyılda önemli oranda gayrimüslim nüfus bulunmaktaydı. Şehrin ticari gelişiminda Müslüman nüfusun yanı sıra gayrimüslim nüfusun da önemli katkıları bulunmaktaydı. Bu anlamda ilgili bu dönemde şehrin gayrimüslim sakinleri arasında azınlıkta olsalar da ekonomik hayatta oldukça aktif olan Yahudilerin vergi tahsildarı olarak öne çıktıkları gözlenmiştir. Yüzyılın önemli bir zaman diliminde çeşitli vergilerin tahsil edilmesi işinin Ankaralı Yahudiler tarafından gerçekleştirildiği anlaşılmaktadır. Yahudilerin, iltizam usulü ile vergi toplanmasında aldıkları roller dikkate alındığında saygın ve gelir düzeyi yüksek kişiler oldukları öne sürülebilir. Aynı zamanda bu kişilerin güvenilir olması da vergilerin zamanında toplanması ve ödemelerin düzenli yapılması açısından önem arz etmektedir. Yapılan araştırmalar neticesinde 1600 ve 1640 yılları arasında Ankara’nın önemli vergi kalemlerinin genellikle Yahudilere iltizama verildiği tespit edilmiştir. Yüzyılın gayrimüslim nüfusu içerisinde en az nüfusa sahip olan Yahudilerin böyle önemli bir görevde aktif rol almaları dikkat çekmektedir. Bu anlamda Yahudiler Ankara şehri özelinde Osmanlı Devleti bünyesinde önemli roller üstlenmişlerdir.
Vakıflarda Bir İhtilaf Meselesi: Müşterek Tasarruf ve Yarım Hisse
Authors: BİÇER Ramazan Hüseyin
Published: November 2022

Bu çalışmada, Osmanlı Devleti’nde XVI. yüzyıl ile XVII. yüzyılda İstanbul’daki vakıf davalarına dayanarak, akarların müşterek ve yarım hisseli kullanımlarında yaşanan problemler ele alınmıştır. Ana kaynak olarak Haremeyn Müfettişliği Sicilleri’nden faydalanılmış, bunun yanında çeşitli arşiv kaynaklarına da başvurulmuştur. Vakıf kurucuları, İslam hukuku gereği genelde vakıflarının tasarruf cihetlerini zikrettikten sonra son olarak vakfa ebedî bir hayır yönü de tayin ederlerdi. Bu hayır yönünün çok farklı uygulamaları olsa da Haremeyn fukarası en çok başvurulan ebedî hayır yönlerinden birisiydi. Özellikle ebedî hayır yönü Haremeyn olarak belirtilen bu tür vakıfların, inkıraz şartları gerçekleştikten sonra o vakfın tasarrufu, Haremeyn mütevellisinin eline geçer ve gerekli kiralamalar yapılarak elde edilen gelir Mekke, Medine ve Kudüs’e gönderilirdi. Ancak, vakıf kurucularının vakfiyelerindeki müşterek kullanım ve hisseli tasarruf paylaşımları, kendi tasarrufçuları arasında veya ebedî cihet mütevellisi olarak ifade ettiğimiz Haremeyn mütevellisinin kontrolüne geçiş sürecinde problemlere neden olmaktaydı. Bu şekilde yapılan tasarruf paylaşımları, bir vakıf akarının yarısının başkasının kullanımında olmasına, diğer yarısının ise ebedî cihete geçmiş olmasına neden oluyordu. Vakfa el koymaya gelen mütevelli ise mevcut kullanıcılarla sorun yaşıyor, zaman zaman konu mahkemeye intikal ediyordu. Ayrıca müşterek kullanımlı ya da yarım hisseli tasarruflu vakıflarda, hissedarlardan birisinin vefatı sonrasında da boş kalan yarım hissenin tasarruf problemi ortaya çıkmaktaydı. Bu çalışmada, bu tür vakıflardaki ortak tasarruf ve hisseli kullanım şartlarının neden olduğu problemler değerlendirilmiştir. Osmanlı Devleti’nin genel durumunu aksettirmesi bakımından devletin başkenti olan İstanbul’daki bazı vakıflar özelinde konu ele alınmıştır.
Large-magnitude, late Holocene earthquakes on the Genoa fault, west-central Nevada and eastern California

The Genoa fault, a principal normal fault of the transition zone between the Basin and Range Province and the northern Sierra Nevada, displays a large and conspicuous prehistoric scarp. Three trenches excavated across this scarp exposed two large-displacement, late Holocene events. Two of the trenches contained multiple layers of stratified charcoal, yielding radiocarbon ages suggesting the most recent and penultimate events on the main part of the fault occurred 500-600 cal B.P., and 2000-2200 cal B.P., respectively. Normal-slip offsets of 3-5.5 m per event along much of the rupture length are comparable to the largest historical Basin and Range Province earthquakes, suggesting these paleoearthquakes were on the order of magnitude 7.2-7.5. The apparent late Holocene slip rate (2-3 mm/yr) is one of the highest in the Basin and Range Province.

Based on structural and behavioral differences, the Genoa fault is here divided into four principal sections (the Sierra, Diamond Valley, Carson Valley, and Jacks Valley sections) and is distinguished from three northeast-striking faults in the Carson City area (the Kings Canyon, Carson City, and Indian Hill faults). The conspicuous scarp extends for nearly 25 km, the combined length of the Carson Valley and Jacks Valley sections. The Diamond Valley section lacks the conspicuous scarp, and older alluvial fans and bedrock outcrops on the downthrown side of the fault indicate a lower activity rate. Activity further decreases to the south along the Sierra section, which consists of numerous distributed faults. All three northeast-striking faults in the Carson City area ruptured within the past few thousand years, and one or more may have ruptured during recent events on the Genoa fault.
