Fairy Tale as a Linguodidactic Resource Teaching French
Authors:   Liepaja University, Beljaev Oleg
Published: October 2022

The relevance of the study lies in the fact that French is one of the demanded foreign languages studied in Latvia and is an important academic subject. It contributes to the improvement of communication culture and pushes the boundaries of students' cognitive capabilities. The linguodidactic versatility of a fairy tale is an urgent problem, both in theoretical and practical terms. The purpose of this research is to consider the tale, both in ontogeny and in a purely practical perspective. In the French classroom, we use fairy tales to achieve practical, educational, and developmental goals. Along with the linguistic aspect itself, a fairy tale can be effectively used for the formation and development of main types of speech activity: reading, listening, speaking, and writing. Practical goals are achieved because the use of material from fairy tales in game situations contributes to the development of communication skills. This creates conditions for speech activity, close to natural communication in a foreign language. In addition to the fact that the environment of real communication is simulated in the lesson, students transform themselves into fairy-tale characters. This approach keeps them interested in the learning process and creates a favorable psychological climate. The use of fairy tales is such an activity in the lesson that is of great importance for the formation of personality, provides the emotional, intellectual, and moral development of the student. A fairy tale as a rich linguistic and cultural resource helps the student to develop his/her attention, memory and thinking. Many years of personal experience allows me to assert that learning languages through fairy tales enables a teacher to: rely on a quality resource; deliver quality classes that teach students a second language; bring positive language learning into a classroom; engage learners both cognitively and emotionally; help students to gain a deep and satisfying understanding of language; find personal enjoyment in a resource; provide a different approach to learning language; give students ownership of their learning of a new language and equip them with language tools for their future.
Didactic Games in the French Language Classroom
Authors:   Liepaja University, Beljaev Oleg
Published: October 2022

The growing interest in studying foreign languages in Latvia, including the study of French as a foreign language, is a feature of our time. This indisputable position determines the relevance of the article. All students choosing French for study have very different motivation. At the same time, everyone is aware that a good knowledge of foreign languages is an indispensable precondition for career growth and the key that opens the door for us to enter another culture. French language learning is a hard task which can sometimes be frustrating. Constant effort is required to understand, produce and manipulate the target language. Well-chosen games are invaluable as they give students a break and at the same time allow students to practice language skills. The author of the article shares the opinion that games are highly motivating since they are amusing and at the same time challenging. Furthermore, they employ meaningful and useful language in real contexts. Games also encourage and increase cooperation. They can be used to give practice in all language skills and be used to practice many types of communication. The curriculum for foreign languages emphasizes the importance of learning languages and especially the importance of communication. Because of this fact it is vitally important for teachers to create a positive learning environment, and to try to spark interest among their students both in the foreign language and culture because that is important to a successful language learning process. Games help achieve these goals. The article considers the types of games (research games, certification games and didactic games) and their influence on psycho-physiological state of students. Brief methodical recommendations on the organization of didactic playing activities are also provided. The author describes game-based learning and its impact on intrinsic motivation and performance of students, in particular their speaking skills. The theoretical part includes definitions of main concepts such as intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and creativity. The practical part is dedicated to certain games and tasks to enhance motivation and speaking skills. In conclusion, the role of games in teaching and learning cannot be denied. However, in order to achieve the most from didactic games in the French classroom, it is essential that suitable games are chosen. Whenever a game is to be conducted, the number of students, proficiency level, cultural context, timing, learning topic, and the classroom settings are factors that should be taken into account.
Multilingvisms latviešu diasporā Vācijā
Authors:   Johannes Gutenberg Universität Mainz, Trūpa Sarmīte
Published: October 2022

Over the last fifteen years, the large-scale emigration from Latvia, triggered by economic crisis of 2008, has led to the emergence of “new diaspora” communities in the EU. In Germany, the number of Latvians has increased rapidly since 2011, when Germany opened its labor market for immigrants from the new EU member states, including Latvia. Since then, according to the German Federal Statistical Office, the number of Latvian citizens in Germany has grown steadily reaching 39,555 at the end of 2019. The exact number of Latvians in Germany, however, is unknown, as the statistics are based solely on the fact of Latvian citizenship. The new sociocultural environment, in which migrants find themselves, have tremendous sociolinguistic consequences on their language practices. When moving to another country, not only the level of language skills but also the linguistic behavior and attitudes of emigrants towards their mother tongue change for both objective and subjective reasons. In addition to their mother tongue, Latvians living in Germany use German, Russian, and English in their daily lives. Against the background of these very strong languages, a complex and heterogeneous situation emerges in connection with the transmission of the Latvian language to the next generation. Although, most Latvians in the diaspora (incl. those in exogamous partnerships) want their children to speak Latvian, this desire does not always get fulfilled. The main aim of this article, hence, is to explore language attitudes and language use patterns among Latvians in Germany and to assess their role in the transmission of Latvian to future generations. The empirical basis for the article comes from fifteen qualitative interviews with first-generation Latvian emigrants living in Germany. The study focuses specifically on the “new diaspora” that has emerged over the last thirty years since Latvia regained its independence. The findings of the study suggest that since the beginning of the 1990s both the motivation for Latvians to emigrate and the demographic structure of the diaspora have changed significantly. Moreover, reported linguistic socialization preferences, motivation behind language choices, and everyday language use patterns point to rather heterogenous linguistic profile of the “new Latvian diaspora” in Germany. At present, at least three very different groups or “bubbles” can be distinguished among the interviewed respondents: “the well-integrated/assimilated bubble” with German as a dominant everyday language, “the Latvian bubble”, characterized by the dominant use of Latvian, and “the East European bubble” with Russian as a dominant language of everyday interactions. In addition to these findings, the article also discusses factors that, according to the representatives of the diaspora themselves, promote and hinder the maintenance of the Latvian language in emigration.
Numerical Analysis of Fluid Flow Problems Using Spectral Relaxation Method (SRM)
Authors: Makanda Gilbert
Published: October 2022

The paper presents four examples arising from mathematical models in fluid flow. Examples 1 and 2 illustrate the implementation of the spectral relaxation method (SRM) on problems involving ordinary differential equations. Examples 3 and 4 illustrate the application of the SRM on partial differential equations. The SRM is accurate and robust if it is used together with the successive overrelaxation (SOR) technique. The method is easy to implement and requires less computational time than similar methods that can be used to solve similar problems. The method converges after a few iterations and is stable. The method can be used as an alternative method to solve problems arising in fluid flow.
An Enhanced Adaptative System based on Machine Learning for Predicting the Evolution of Islamic Stock Prices
Authors: Abbahaddou Kaoutar , Chiadmi Mohammed Salah , Aboulaich Rajae
Published: October 2022

This paper suggests an enhanced machine-learning-based system to guide future stock price decisions. In reality, most existing machine learning systems, such as SEA (Stream Ensemble Algorithm), VFDT (Very Fast Decision Tree ), and online bagging and boosting, keep models updated with only new data and reduce training timeframes to allow working rapidly with the most recent model. However, limited learning times and the exclusion of essential information from previous data may result in a bad performance. When it comes to learning models, our system takes a different approach. It builds several models based on random selections of historical data from the main stock as well as related stocks. The best models are then combined to generate a final, performant model. We performed an empirical study on five Islamic stock market indices. We can say from the results that our system outperforms the existing published algorithms. This framework can contribute then to having an enhanced system that will enable different stakeholders to make rapid decisions based on the forecasted trend of indices.

Published: October 2022

O presente artigo objetiva analisar o valor probatório da delação premiada no processo penal brasileiro. Utilizando-se do método de pesquisa qualitativo e de uma revisão bibliográfica e jurisprudencial, inicialmente, far-se-á um breve escorço histórico acerca da origem do instituto, de acordo com a legislação americana e italiana, as quais serviram de inspiração ao legislador pátrio. Na sequência, serão objeto de investigação as previsões normativas da colaboração processual no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro, a conceituação e a sua natureza jurídica, bem como os requisitos mínimos legais previstos para a sua admissibilidade. A fim de possibilitar melhor compreensão, abordar-se-ão as questões que permeiam a prova no processo penal, desde a sua delimitação conceitual até a atividade de valoração processual. Ato contínuo, a partir de uma análise das aferições internas e externas da prova, discorrer-se-á a respeito do valor probatório da delação premiada no Brasil, à luz da regra de corroboração. Em arremate, tratar-se-á de algumas problemáticas que gravitam em torno do instituto: a (in)constitucionalidade e a questão ética em face da delação premiada. Encerra-se o presente desenvolvimento com a conclusão de que a delação possui valor probatório, podendo, efetivamente, ser utilizada como meio de obtenção de prova para sustentar o édito condenatório de terceiros, desde que, submetida ao crivo do contraditório e da ampla defesa, encontre respaldo nos demais elementos de prova reunidos no processo penal.
Modernização da Advocacia: a flexibilização do advogado contemporâneo e a importância das implicações da Lei n. 8.906/94 na preservação do pensamento crítico
Authors: Kistner Alan Iago , Busnello Saul José
Published: October 2022

O presente artigo possui como objeto analisar a modernização da advocacia através do atual modelo de flexibilização que o advogado contemporâneo tem que adotar para se sustentar na profissão e a importância das implicações da Lei n. 8.906/94 na preservação do pensamento crítico, preceitos morais subjetivos e condutas éticas. A advocacia contemporânea evoluiu em relação ao modelo clássico, sendo fruto de uma transformação social que resultou na necessária adequação à informatização corrente. Por outro lado, o gradativo aumento de profissionais no mercado, pautados justamente pela acessibilidade e informatização, tem induzido uma possível mercantilização da profissão através da publicidade desenfreada de informações e a produção mecanizada dos processos, desestimulando o senso crítico. O método de pesquisa foi o indutivo e o procedimento monográfico. Utilizou-se também a técnica da pesquisa bibliográfica para fundamentação. As Considerações Finais apresentam os aspectos mais relevantes ao tema, comprovando-se, ou não, a hipótese básica.
O Debate do Lícito e do Ilícito na Internet: liberdade de expressão e remoção de conteúdo
Authors: Nunes Samuel , Miranda Frederico Cardoso de
Published: October 2022

O presente trabalho buscou uma análise da liberdade de expressão na internet, para levantar as técnicas usadas pelos magistrados para dirimir conflitos nos quais é requerida a remoção de conteúdo da internet, além da eficácia das determinações judiciais e a responsabilização dos provedores. Considerando a estrutura técnica de operação da internet, os limites da liberdade de expressão foram confrontados à luz dos diplomas normativos, da jurisprudência e de doutrinas, bem como possibilidade de indisponibilização de conteúdo e seus requisitos, com base no Marco Civil da Internet, inclusive por meio de medida liminar. Ao final, foi dedicado um capítulo sobre as formas de responsabilização civil dos provedores e sua proteção jurídica. O trabalho concluiu que os limites da liberdade de expressão deverão ser determinados caso a caso, por meio do posicionamento subjetivo do magistrado, que irá sopesar, no caso concreto, interesses, valores e princípios colidentes; que a remoção compulsória de conteúdo da internet dependerá da ilicitude do conteúdo, reconhecida pelo Juiz, de decisão judicial e de indicação de URL para sua validade, salvo quando o conteúdo reputado ilícito violar a intimidade sexual de outrem; e que na maioria dos casos a baixa eficácia das sentenças que determinam a retirada de conteúdo ocorre pela lentidão do judiciário e do modus operandi da internet. No que tange à retirada por meio de liminar, o trabalho concluiu que esta não cabe em qualquer caso, sob o risco de configurar censura prévia. Já quanto à responsabilização dos provedores, a regra geral é que ela é subjetiva, exceção quando ele contiver controle prévio do conteúdo postado por seus usuários.

Naphthalimide-phenothiazine dyads: effect of conformational flexibility and matching of the energy of the charge-transfer state and the localized triplet excited state on the thermally activated delayed fluorescence

Published: October 2022

In order to investigate the joint influence of the conformation flexibility and the matching of the energies of the charge-transfer (CT) and the localized triplet excited (3LE) states on the thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) in electron donor–acceptor molecules, a series of compact electron donor–acceptor dyads and a triad were prepared, with naphthalimide (NI) as electron acceptor and phenothiazine (PTZ) as electron donor. The NI and PTZ moieties are either directly connected at the 3-position of NI and the N-position of the PTZ moiety via a C–N single bond, or they are linked through a phenyl group. The tuning of the energy order of the CT and LE states is achieved by oxidation of the PTZ unit into the corresponding sulfoxide, whereas conformation restriction is imposed by introducing ortho-methyl substituents on the phenyl linker, so that the coupling magnitude between the CT and the 3LE states can be controlled. The singlet oxygen quantum yield (ΦΔ) of NI-PTZ is moderate in n-hexane (HEX, ΦΔ = 19%). TADF was observed for the dyads, the biexponential luminescence lifetime are 16.0 ns (99.9%)/14.4 μs (0.1%) for the dyad and 7.2 ns (99.6%)/2.0 μs (0.4%) for the triad. Triplet state was observed in the nanosecond transient absorption spectra with lifetimes in the 4–48 μs range. Computational investigations show that the orthogonal electron donor–acceptor molecular structure is beneficial for TADF. These calculations indicate small energetic difference between the 3LE and 3CT states, which are helpful for interpreting the ns-TA spectra and the origins of TADF in NI-PTZ, which is ultimately due to the small energetic difference between the 3LE and 3CT states. Conversely, NI-PTZ-O, which has a higher CT state and bears a much more stabilized 3LE state, does not show TADF.

This paper deals with a model that comprises the pumped-storage hydro power plants in the power system reliability and availability calculations, as well as a model of the impact of inflow deficiency and water storage risks on the operational planning of such plants within the framework of operational planning systems for periods of up to one year. The impact of inflow uncertainties is related to the characteristics of watercourses where the water storage reservoirs and hydro power plants are built, but also to the operation cycles and possible operation modes in the system.
COILS – SOURCES OF HOMOGENEOUS MAGNETIC FIELDS
Authors: Dušan Vujević
Published: October 2022

The sources of known homogeneous magnetic fields are used for calibration of instruments with which magnetic fields are measured and for various experiments and tests in electrical engineering, physics, medicine, biology and other scientific and technical areas. Depending on the value of the desired magnetic field, these can be permanent magnets or electromagnets and, more frequently, various coils (solenoids) fed by DC, AC or impulse current. The homogeneous magnetic fields attained by coils or coil systems widely vary from the microtesla order of magnitude with ordinary coils to the microtesla order of magnitude with superconductive coils.

Znaczenie suwerenności w demokratycznym państwie prawa
Authors: Wituła Natalia
Published: October 2022

Suwerenność jawi się, jako trudna do zdefiniowania. Jest istotnym przymiotem, właściwym nie tylko jednostce ludzkiej, obdarzonej wolną wolą i rozumem - z których wypływa przyrodzona godność i prawo naturalne - ale także wszelkich tworów, które tworzy i na które wpływa, takich jak rodzina,  społeczeństwo, naród, czy wreszcie – państwo.  Nie dotyczy ona li tylko aspektów politycznych, ale przez swą kompleksowość, można o niej mówić we wszelkich aspektach dotyczących życia ludzkiego. Suwerenna władza ludzi, jako ogółu obywateli, jest powołana do tego, aby realizować swoje prawo do wolności i decydować o przyszłości kraju, którego naród stanowią. Ma ona niebagatelne znaczenie, jednak jej rozumienie w dyskursie jest problematyczne. Celem pracy jest próba scharakteryzowania suwerenności oraz odpowiedzi na pytanie, jakie ma znaczenie w demokratycznym państwie prawa. Praca jest podzielona na trzy swoiste części. Pierwsza z nich omawia pojęcia suwerenności oraz demokracji. Kolejna odwołuje się do suwerenności z perspektywy bytu ludzkiego, państwa oraz organizacji ponadnarodowych. Ostatnia zamyka się w konkluzjach i wnioskach.

Published: October 2022

Background: In this study, we evaluated the recent changes in the standardized, age-specific, stage-specific incidence rates (IRs) of thyroid cancer in Korea and compared them with the incidence data reported by the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program.Methods: The analysis was conducted using the incidence data (2005 to 2018) from the Statistics Korea and Korea Central Cancer Registry.Results: The age-standardized IR (SIR) of thyroid cancer increased from 24.09 per 100,000 in 2005 to 74.83 in 2012 (annual percent change [APC], 14.5). From 2012 to 2015, the SIR decreased to 42.52 (APC, –17.9) and then remained stable until 2018 (APC, 2.1). This trend was similar in both men and women. Regarding age-specific IRs, the IRs for ages of 30 years and older showed a trend similar to that of the SIR; however, for ages below 30 years, no significant reduction was observed from the vertex of IR in 2015. Regarding stage-specific IRs, the increase was more prominent in those with regional disease (APC, 17.4) than in those with localized disease until 2012; then, the IR decreased until 2015 (APC, –16.1). The average APC from 2005 to 2018 increased in men, those under the age of 30 years, and those with regional disease.Conclusion: The SIR in Korea peaked in 2012 and decreased until 2015 and then remained stable until 2018. However, in young individuals under the age of 30 years, the IR did not significantly decrease but tended to increase again. In terms of stage-specific IRs, the sharpest increase was seen among those with regional disease.

Finding out what holds back students from doing well on the TOEFL listening exam is central to this study's overall aim. In this study, the quantitative descriptive approach was used. A sample of 36 participants from Piksi Input Serang's fifth semester accounting diploma class served as the basis sample for this study. The study instrument was based on an instrument cited from Hamouda (2013). There are a total of 27 inquiries spread across 7 sections in the questionnaire. The majority of participants, as measured by both mean and dominating factor, identify problems with the physical environment, such as distractions from background noise and distorted audio from a low-quality CD player, as significant barriers to their studies. It's safe to say that the participants have it toughest when it comes to the listening test's actual material and environment.
On the Formation of Over-ionized Plasma in Evolved Supernova Remnants
Authors: Katsuragawa Miho , Lee Shiu-Hang , Odaka Hirokazu , Bamba Aya , Matsumura Hideaki , Takahashi Tadayuki
Published: October 2022

One of the outstanding mysteries surrounding the rich diversity found in supernova remnants (SNRs) is the recent discovery of over-ionized or recombining plasma from a number of dynamically evolved objects. To help decipher its formation mechanism, we have developed a new simulation framework capable of modeling the time evolution of the ionization state of the plasma in an SNR. The platform is based on a one-dimensional hydrodynamics code coupled to a fully time-dependent nonequilibrium ionization calculation, accompanied by a spectral synthesis code to generate space-resolved broadband X-ray spectra for SNRs at arbitrary ages. We perform a comprehensive parametric survey to investigate the effects of different circumstellar environments on the ionization state evolution in SNRs up to a few 104 yr. A two-dimensional parameter space, spanned by arrays of interstellar medium (ISM) densities and mass-loss rates of the progenitor, is used to create a grid of models for the surrounding environment, in which a core-collapse explosion is triggered. Our results show that a recombining plasma can be successfully reproduced in the case of a young SNR (a few 100 to 1000 yr old) expanding fast in a spatially extended low-density wind, an old SNR (>a few 1000 yr) expanding in a dense ISM, or an old SNR broken out from a confined dense wind region into a tenuous ISM. Finally, our models are confronted with observations of evolved SNRs, and an overall good agreement is found except for a couple of outliers.
A Generative Model for Quasar Spectra
Authors: Eilers Anna–Christina , Hogg David W. , Schölkopf Bernhard , Foreman-Mackey Daniel , Davies Frederick B. , Schindler Jan–Torge
Published: October 2022

We build a multi-output generative model for quasar spectra and the properties of their black hole engines, based on a Gaussian process latent-variable model. This model treats every quasar as a vector of latent properties such that the spectrum and all physical properties of the quasar are associated with non-linear functions of those latent parameters; the Gaussian process kernel functions define priors on the function space. Our generative model is trained with a justifiable likelihood function that allows us to treat heteroscedastic noise and missing data correctly, which is crucial for all astrophysical applications. It can simultaneously predict unobserved spectral regions and the physical properties of quasars in held-out test data. We apply the model to rest-frame ultraviolet and optical quasar spectra for which precise black hole masses (based on reverberation-mapping measurements) are available. Unlike reverberation-mapping studies that require multi-epoch data, our model predicts black hole masses from single-epoch spectra—even with limited spectral coverage. We demonstrate the capabilities of the model by predicting black hole masses and unobserved spectral regions. We find that we predict black hole masses at close to the best possible accuracy.
The Formation of Monosubstituted Cyclopropenylidene Derivatives in the Interstellar Medium via Neutral–Neutral Reaction Pathways
Authors: Flint Athena R. , Fortenberry Ryan C.
Published: October 2022

Five substituted cyclopropenylidene derivatives (c-C3HX, X=CN, OH, F, NH2), all currently undetected in the interstellar medium (ISM), are found herein to have mechanistically viable, gas-phase formation pathways through neutral–neutral additions of ·X onto c-C3H2. The detection and predicted formation mechanism of c-C3HC2H introduces a need for the chemistry of c-C3H2 and any possible derivatives to be more fully explored. Chemically accurate CCSD(T)-F12/cc-pVTZ-F12 calculations provide exothermicities of additions of various radical species to c-C3H2, alongside energies of submerged intermediates that are crossed to result in product formation. Of the novel reaction mechanisms proposed, the addition of the cyano radical is the most exothermic at -16.10 kcal mol−1. All five products are found to or are expected to have at least one means of associating barrierlessly to form a submerged intermediate, a requirement for the cold chemistry of the ISM. The energetically allowed additions arise as a result of the strong electrophilicity of the radical species as well as the product stability gained through substituent-ring conjugation.
Reduced Late Bombardment on Rocky Exoplanets around M Dwarfs
Authors: Lichtenberg Tim , Clement Matthew S.
Published: October 2022

Ocean-vaporizing impacts of chemically reduced planetesimals onto the early Earth have been suggested to catalyze atmospheric production of reduced nitrogen compounds and trigger prebiotic synthesis despite an oxidized lithosphere. While geochemical evidence supports a dry, highly reduced late veneer on Earth, the composition of late-impacting debris around lower-mass stars is subject to variable volatile loss as a result of their hosts’ extended pre-main-sequence phase. We perform simulations of late-stage planet formation across the M-dwarf mass spectrum to derive upper limits on reducing bombardment epochs in Hadean-analog environments. We contrast the solar system scenario with varying initial volatile distributions due to extended primordial runaway greenhouse phases on protoplanets and the desiccation of smaller planetesimals by internal radiogenic heating. We find a decreasing rate of late-accreting reducing impacts with decreasing stellar mass. Young planets around stars ≤0.4 M
⊙ experience no impacts of sufficient mass to generate prebiotically relevant concentrations of reduced atmospheric compounds once their stars have reached the main sequence. For M-dwarf planets to not exceed Earth-like concentrations of volatiles, both planetesimals, and larger protoplanets must undergo extensive devolatilization processes and can typically emerge from long-lived magma ocean phases with sufficient atmophile content to outgas secondary atmospheres. Our results suggest that transiently reducing surface conditions on young rocky exoplanets are favored around FGK stellar types relative to M dwarfs.

Si la division sexuelle du travail au sein du couple marié possède cette vertu et si l’institution du mariage protège les partenaires, tel n’est pas le cas au niveau de la division du travail social. Ceci a des effets sur la sexualité des hommes, engendrant une souffrance toute particulière tandis que les femmes n’en sont pas affectées. Leur interdire le divorce semble alors une exigence de justice sociale tant que la division du travail reste anomique et/ou n’intègre pas les femmes. Les analyses de Durkheim constituent une conceptualisation nouvelle du terme de liberté moderne qui permet encore aujourd’hui d’éclairer les demandes d’un élargissement de l’état matrimonial.
De l’enquête au terrain numérique : les apports de l’Osint à l’étude des phénomènes géopolitiques
Authors: Limonier Kévin , Audinet Maxime
Published: October 2022

Depuis une dizaine d’années, les enquêtes fondées sur l’exploitation de sources ouvertes et de traces numériques se développent au point de devenir déterminantes dans la documentation des conflits contemporains, au premier rang desquels figure la guerre en Ukraine. Généralement désignées sous le sigle Osint ( open source intelligence ), ces pratiques d’investigation sont rendues possibles par l’omniprésence de capteurs qui numérisent une part grandissante des activités humaines et en génèrent des traces. Si ces sources sont largement exploitées par des services de renseignement, des journalistes ou des activistes, les réflexions menées pour les intégrer à la « boîte à outils » du chercheur en sciences humaines et sociales travaillant sur les phénomènes géopolitiques sont encore embryonnaires, et méritent d’être enrichies. Le présent article entend apporter une pierre à cet édifice, en revenant sur les enjeux épistémologiques que pose l’enquête numérique et en proposant une ébauche de canevas méthodologique. Il en résulte la possibilité d’un terrain « augmenté » par le numérique, dont le recours s’avère particulièrement fécond dans les contextes de terrains difficiles ou inaccessibles.
Une approche clinique de la pandémie sous le regard de l’enfant
Authors: Passeggi Maria , Furlanetto Ecleide , Biasoli Karina
Published: October 2022

Les crises provoquées par la covid-19 au Brésil, largement exacerbées par l’instabilité politique du pays, ont mis à nu l’invisibilité des préjugés et la négligence envers l’enfance. Comment les enfants en âge scolaire ont-ils vécu la pandémie ? En adoptant une visée clinique, l’article interroge la perception d’un enfant, âgé de 12 ans, vivant dans des conditions de vulnérabilité sociale. Après avoir esquisser le cadre théorique et conceptuel de la recherche pour faire face aux enjeux épistémiques posés par la spécificité de l’approche biographiques avec les récits d’enfants, la seconde partie du texte est consacrée à l’analyse des récits et aux résultats concernant les modes dont l’enfant donne du sens aux expériences vécues dans une perspective à la fois herméneutique et autopoïétique. Les considérations finales portent sur les contributions des récits d’enfants pour l’avancement de la recherche sur l’enfance en sciences de l’éducation.
Pandemia, educação e memórias do tempo presente
Authors: Lopes da Barra Valdeniza Maria , Bastos Gonçalves Keyla Maria , Teixeira de Sousa Sarah Karoline
Published: October 2022

Resumo – Este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar o projeto Arquipélago de memórias: pandemia e vida cotidiana de professores, estudantes e pais/mães de alunos (familiares) , desenvolvido pela Universidade Federal de Goiás, em parcerias com outras instituições. Mais especificamente, discutiremos a respeito da base teórico-metodológica utilizada e apresentaremos os resultados iniciais das análises dos dados quantitativos 1 . O referido projeto surgiu no começo da crise sanitária global motivada pela Covid-19, cuja declaração de estado de pandemia (OMS) se deu em 11/03/2020 e, em ato continuum , a recomendação de fechamento de espaços de aglomeração, dentre os quais, os das instituições educativas, sob justificativa do necessário e temporário esvaziamento dos espaços públicos. A finalidade do projeto é captar relatos de vivências de pessoas com ligação direta e indireta com a educação formal, acerca do modo como a pandemia impacta a vida cotidiana. Para este fim, reúne uma rede de parceiros que representam mais de vinte estados do país, estratégia que visa a produzir uma amostra representativa da diversidade do Brasil. O conteúdo dos relatos somente será publicado a partir de 2025, forma de assegurar algum tempo que processe o relato de vivência da pandemia em vestígio de memória do tempo presente. Por esta razão, os dados quantitativos apresentados na terceira parte deste artigo tangenciarão potencialidades temáticas (gênero, trabalho docente, família) dos relatos, articulando-as com resultados de pesquisas publicadas e afins ao par temático educação e pandemia.
L’économie d’un accord-mondial sur le climat dans le monde « tel qu’il est »
Authors: Hourcade Jean-Charles
Published: October 2022

Le respect de l’objectif « bien en dessous de 2°C » dépend d’un accord mondial, dès la COP28, sur le financement des « actions volontaires » des pays ( cf. l’Accord de Paris) dans un contexte d’incertitude sur la reprise économique post-Covid-19. Macro-économiquement, ce financement ne peut être séparé de la réduction du déficit structurel d’investissements en infrastructures qui est une précondition de la diminution de la pauvreté (« first and over-riding priority » de la Convention Climat) et de la réalisation des objectifs de développement durable. Nous montrons que cette réduction passe par le « dérisquage » des investissements et l’émergence d’une classe d’actifs bascarbone pour réorienter l’épargne mondiale en direction des pays en développement où deux-tiers des investissements bas carbone doivent se déployer. Puis nous discutons de la possibilité, en allégeant la contrainte de la dette qui pèse sur la plupart d’entre eux via des outils assurant le « bon usage » des facilités de paiement ainsi accordées, de soutenir une relance post-Covid plus forte et solide que via des relances « incolores ». Nous esquissons enfin le « cercle de confiance » pour la transition écologique que pourrait enclencher un système multilatéral de garanties publiques accordées par les pays développés pour des investissements bas carbone dans les pays du Sud, cercle de confiance, susceptible, à terme, d’ouvrir la voie à des évolutions plus profondes du système financier.
Structural Rationality in Dynamic Games
Authors: Siniscalchi Marciano
Published: October 2022

The analysis of dynamic games hinges on assumptions about players' actions and beliefs at information sets that are not expected to be reached during game play. Under the standard notion of sequential rationality, these assumptions cannot be tested on the basis of observed, on‐path behavior. This paper introduces a novel optimality criterion,
structural rationality, which addresses this concern. In any dynamic game, structural rationality implies weak sequential rationality (Reny (1992)). If players are structurally rational, assumptions about on‐path and off‐path beliefs concerning off‐path actions can be tested via suitable “side bets.” Structural rationality also provides a theoretical rationale for the use of a novel version of the strategy method (Selten (1967)) in experiments.
Preparing for the Worst but Hoping for the Best: Robust (Bayesian) Persuasion
Authors: Dworczak Piotr , Pavan Alessandro
Published: October 2022

We propose a robust solution concept for Bayesian persuasion that accounts for the Sender's concern that her Bayesian belief about the environment—which we call theconjecture—may be false. Specifically, the Sender is uncertain about the exogenous sources of information the Receivers may learn from, and about strategy selection. She first identifies all information policies that yield the largest payoff in the “worst‐case scenario,” that is, when Nature provides information and coordinates the Receivers' play to minimize the Sender's payoff. Then she uses the conjecture to pick the optimal policy among the worst‐case optimal ones. We characterize properties of robust solutions, identify conditions under which robustness requires separation of certain states, and qualify in what sense robustness calls for more information disclosure than standard Bayesian persuasion. Finally, we discuss how some of the results in the Bayesian persuasion literature change once robustness is accounted for, and develop a few new applications.
Saragossa: ¿una capital ibèrica de transicions i de síntesi?
Authors: Martínez Pérez Michel
Published: October 2022

Saragosse est la capitale de l’actuelle Communauté Autonome d’Aragon. Jusqu’aux décrets de Nueva Planta (1707), elle fut la capitale du Royaume d’Aragon. Pendant le franquisme, alors qu’elle n’était que le chef-lieu de la province homonyme, elle a joué le rôle de capitale économique, culturelle et universitaire non seulement de l’Aragon mais aussi d’une partie importante de la vallée de l’Èbre et du Nord-Est de la péninsule ibérique. L’exode rural a vidé la campagne aragonaise et a favorisé la consolidation de Saragosse comme capitale incontestée ; la « macrocéphalie saragossaise » était née.Il s’agira de voir comment Saragosse s’est convertie « naturellement » en capitale politique de l’Aragon autonome, en même temps qu’elle est devenue la capitale d’une Espagne intérieure et vidée (à l’exception de Madrid) qui exerce une forme de synthèse ibérique située dans un territoire de transition (l’Aragon) entre l’Espagne intérieure et périphérique, monolingue et bilingue.

De París a Barcelona : la transferència de la modernitat vista per Ramon D. Perés
Authors: Bartolí Masons Gemma
Published: October 2022

L’article examine l’opinion du critique littéraire Ramon D. Perés à propos de l’arrivée de la modernité littéraire et artistique en Catalogne à la fin du xixe siècle. Perés constate que tout ce qui vient d’Europe passe auparavant par la France, où sont non seulement produits des textes mais aussi des traductions. Cependant, opposé aux modes et aux écoles les plus novatrices, le critique prend ses distances envers le renouvellement poétique le plus radical et finit par rester à la marge du mouvement qu’il a lui-même contribué à développer.
Suicidal Analysis on Social Networks Using Machine Learning
Authors: Babulal Kanojia Sindhuben , Nayak Bashu Kumar
Published: October 2022

Suicides are the most critical issues in the present time. Early detection and prevention can assure the safety for the people's lives. As the technology increases rapidly, we are moving towards online channels to express our suicidal thoughts. In the chapter, the authors deal with suicidal ideation through the user generated post on different platforms like Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, Suicide Watch, etc. Analyzing the text, they enrich the knowledge and that can be used as an indicator for suicidal thoughts. To detect suicidal thoughts, they use text processing using NLP, and some features are generated that can be classified using different classifiers like random forest, SVM, naïve bayes, etc., and some neural network models like CNN, LSTM, BERT, etc. are also used for final prediction of suicidal or non-suicidal thoughts. In this chapter, the authors use Distill Bert model for predicting the results and also improve the accuracy by changing the hyperparameters. Here, they summarize the existing work's limitations and discuss future research directions.
