Effects of electroporation on cytotoxicity of 4-aminopyrimidin-2-(1H)-one based ligand and its Cobalt (II) and Ruthenium (II) complexes in MCF-7 cancer cells
Authors: ALKİS Mehmet Esref
Published: August 2021

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the underlying causes of obstetrical disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) Objective: Cancer is a complicated disease and ranks near the top among the causes of death across the world. Electrochemotherapy (ECT) is a local treatment method in which chemotherapy and electroporation (EP) are used in combination to facilitate the entry of drugs into cells. The purpose of the study is to examine the cytotoxicity of the cytosine-based ligand and its cobalt and ruthenium complexes in MCF-7 cancer cells and L-929 healthy cells, and to determine the effects of EP on the anticancer activities of these compounds.

Methods: In the present study, firstly, the cytotoxic activities of the ligand and its cobalt (Co) and ruthenium (Ru) complexes were examined against MCF-7 cancer cells and L-929 healthy cells. Then, the effects of EP on the anticancer activities of these compounds were examined in MCF-7 cancer cells. Cytotoxicity activities of the compounds were determined by MTT viability test.

Results: Co(II) and Ru(II) compounds showed the best cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cancer cells, while they displayed low cytotoxicity against the L-929 healthy cells. EP increased the cytotoxicity of the compounds significantly (p
Heterotopic gastric mucosa (inlet patch): Endoscopic prevalence and association with supraesophageal and upper esophageal symptoms
Authors: BEŞTAŞ Remzi , EKİN Nazım
Published: August 2021

Objective: To determine the frequency, demographic and clinical features of the heterotopic gastric mucosa (inlet patch).

Methods: This retrospective study involves 244 patients who applied to the gastroenterology outpatient clinic with different symptoms between September 2016 and December 2019, and who were diagnosed with inlet patch in elective esophagogastroduodenoscopy. All endoscopic procedures were performed by the same clinical endoscopist. All medical records of patients including demographic and clinical features and endoscopy findings were reviewed.

Results: Considering 2823 patients who underwent elective esophagogastroduodenoscopy in the same study period, inlet patch was detected in 224 (8.6%). The number of male patients was 138 (56.6%) and there was no statistical difference between the two genders. The mean age of the patients was 37.73 ± 13.01 years. Single lesion was detected in 204 (83.6%) patients. The size of the largest lesion was 4.5 cm and the smallest lesion was 0.3 cm. All of the lesions were in the proximal esophagus. 54 patients (22.1%) had at least one supraesophageal or upper esophageal symptom. The most common symptom was globus sensation (64.8%). Patients with large lesions were more likely to experience symptoms (28.2% vs. 13.7%, p=0.008).

Conclusion: Careful examination of the proximal esophagus may increase the chance of detecting inlet patch and may explain persistent symptoms in patients without a specific cause. Further understanding of the clinical significance of the disease may also prevent unnecessary diagnostic interventions.
ST Segment Yükselmesiz Akut Koroner Sendromlu Yaşlı Hastalarda Girişimsel Tedavi ile Konservatif Tedavinin Altı Aylık Dönemde Mortalite Üzerine Etkilerinin Karşılaştırılması
Authors: IŞIK Ferhat , İNCİ Ümit , AKYÜZ Abdurrahman , CİL Habip
Published: August 2021

Giriş: Çalışmamızın amacı, ST segment yükselmesiz akut koroner sendrom (NSTEAKS) tanısı ile hastaneye yatırılan yaşlı (65 yaş ve üstü) hastalarda girişimsel tedavi ve konservatif tedavi gruplarının 6 aylık dönemde mortalitelerini karşılaştırmaktır.

Yöntemler: Çalışmamızda NSTEAKS tanısı ile hastaneye yatırılan 65 yaş ve üstü ardışık 300 hasta retrospektif olarak incelendi. Hastane kayıt sisteminden tüm hastaların verilerine ulaşıldı. Hastalar girişimsel tedavi alanlar ve konservatif tedavi verilenler olarak iki gruba ayrıldı. Ayrıca 6 aylık süreçte ölen hastalar ve yaşayan hastalar, iki grup olarak karşılaştırıldı.

Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan hastaların yaş ortalaması 74.72 ± 6.42 olup 157’si (%52) kadındı. Girişimsel ve konservatif tedavi grubunun yaş ortalamaları benzerdi (73.67 ± 5.92 vs 75.77 ± 6.78, p=0.05). Çalışma popülasyonunda 6 aylık dönemde mortalite oranı %13,6 idi. Girişimsel tedavi gurubunda mortalite anlamlı olarak daha düşüktü (%8,6 vs %18,6, p= 0.018). Çalışmamızda, çok değişkenli lojistik regresyon analizi ile 6 aylık mortalitede bazı öngördürücüler tespit ettik. Bunlar; çok yüksek CRUSADE kanama riski [Odds oranı (OR): 1.911, güven aralığı (GA) %95 (1.964 - 28.186), p= 0.030)], konservatif tedavi stratejisinin benimsenmesi [OR: 1.127, GA %95 (0.131 – 0.799), p= 0.014)] ve kardiyak biyobelirteçlerinin (troponin) pozitifliğiydi [OR: 1.837, GA %95 (1.928 – 25.391), p= 0.030)].

Sonuç: Yaşlı NSTEAKS hastalarında 6 aylık mortaliteyi öngörmede konservatif tedavi stratejisi bağımsız bir prediktördür. Başka ifade ile girişimsel tedavi yapılması, yaşlı hastalarda mortaliteyi azaltmıştır. Bu sonuçlar yaşlı hastaların da kapsamlı bir değerlendirmeden sonra girişimsel tedaviden fayda görebileceğini göstermektedir.

Authors: BAHAR Leyla
Published: August 2021

Amaç: Diyabet, son yıllarda yaygınlığı hızla artan ve ciddi komplikasyonları olan metabolik bir hastalıktır. Canlı sistemlerin önemli bir fonksiyonu olan fiziksel aktivite, birçok sistemi etkilediği gibi metabolik ve histolojik parametreleri de etkileyebilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, deneysel diyabet oluşturulan ratlarda koşma egzersiz uygulamalarının karaciğer dokusu üzerindeki etkilerinin Cd68 ile değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Yöntemler: Çalışmaya 32 adet yetişkin Wistar Albino erkek ratların karaciğer dokuları dahil edildi. 1.Grup: Kontrol Sedanter (Cs), 2.Grup: Kontrol Koşma (Cr), 3.Grup: Diyabet Sedanter (Ds), 4.Grup: Diyabet Koşma (Dr) şeklinde dört grup olarak belirlendi. Deneydeki 2 grup; intraperitoneal enjeksiyon ile 45 mg/kg streptozotosin (STZ) tek doz uygulanarak diyabet oluşturulan gruptu. Egzersiz grupları; 4 hafta boyunca (3 gün/haftada) 30 dakika koşma egzersizi yaptırıldı. Deney sonrasında, karaciğer dokuları çıkarılıp, tespit solüsyonuna konuldu, rutin ışık mikroskobik doku takibi uygulandı. 4-5 μm kalınlığında alınan kesitlere, ışık mikroskobik inceleme için rutin Hematoksilen +Eosin boyama yapıldı. İmmünohistokimyasal boyama için deparafinizasyon ve rehidratasyon işlemleri gerçekleştirildi. Endojen peroksidaz aktivitesinin inhibe edilmesi, antijen iyileştirme yapıldı. Primer antikor, sırasıyla biyotinlenmiş sekonder antikor ve streptavidin-peroksidaz enzim konjugatı aşamaları uygulandı. DAB ve zıt boyamalar yapılarak kapatıldı ve ışık mikroskobik olarak incelendi. Total Hasar skoru ve immunreaktivite pozitifliği hesaplanarak istatistiki analizleri (T testi ve Mann Whitney U testi, Kruskal Wallis H) yapıldı.

Bulgular: Kontrol sedanter (Cs) ve kontrol koşma (Cr) gruplarında; karaciğer parankim hücreleri hepatositlerin morfolojik yapıları normal görünümlüydü. Diabet sedanter (Ds) grubunda ise; karaciğer dokusunun klasik hekzagonal lobüler yapısı bozulmuştu.

Published: August 2021

Background: Pregnancy care and screening programs are very important, especially in high-risk pregnancies. However, few interventional studies have addressed mental and sexual health in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Objectives: The present study aimed to examine the effect of a sexual health promotion training program on sexual function of pregnant women with GDM referring to comprehensive health centers in Zahedan, Iran, in 2020. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was performed on 80 pregnant women with GDM (gestational age: 24 - 30 weeks). The participants were selected using multi-stage sampling method and randomly assigned into intervention and control groups. The participants in the intervention group received sexual health promotion training in four sessions (60 - 90 minutes) two sessions per week. The participants in the control group received routine care. The demographic information questionnaire was completed by the participants at the beginning of the study, and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) was administered before and four weeks after the completion of the sexual health promotion training program. The collected data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 22) using independent samples t-test, paired samples t-test, analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), and chi-square test. Results: The results showed a statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups in all subscales of sexual function (P < 0.05). Moreover, the results of ANCOVA for the total sexual function score showed that the women in the intervention group had significantly higher levels of sexual function (22.89 ± 3.24) compared to the women in the control group (16.78 ± 3.16) (P = 0.001). Conclusions: Given the positive and significant effect of sexual health promotion training on the sexual function of pregnant women with GDM, it is recommended to integrate this training program in prenatal care of these vulnerable women.

Bilme ediniminin kendisi ile eş güdümlü bir biçimde ilerleyen ve kapsamlı bir sorgulamayı içerisinde barındıran bilim, köklü bir anlama ve anlamlandırma etkinliğidir. Özünde dış dünyanın niceliksel ve niteliksel olgularını açıklama amacında olan bu etkinlik, tarihsel olarak da oldukça eskiye dayanmaktadır. Özellikle “doğa nedir?” sorusuyla başlayan ancak günümüzde evrenin daha tikel ve özel olgularını arayan bu uğraş, gerçekte konusunun veya nesnesinin hep aynı kaldığı bir sorgulamadır. Öyle ki, “doğada bulunan hareketliliğin ardında değişmeden kalan, daimi bir neden bulunabilir mi?” sorusuyla bu etkinliğe yaklaşan Platon ve Aristoteles, farklı iki temellendirmeyle evren tasarımlarını oluşturmuşlardır. Bu çalışmanın amacı ise doğa ve evren bilimi konusunun, Platon’da idealar kuramı; Aristoteles’te ise madde-form düşüncesi kapsamında açıklanması ve anlamlandırılmasıdır. Bu nedenle bakılan ilk çerçeve, benimsenen bu iki farklı bakış açısının, onların bilim anlayışları üzerine olan etkisini açıklamaktır. İkinci çerçeve ise bilim anlayışlarındaki konu, nesne ve yöntem tercihlerinin, doğa bilimi ve evren tasarımlarına nasıl yansıdığını ortaya koymaktır.

Published: September 2021

The purpose of this study was to develop prototype of virtual reality(VR) simulation with malocclusion models and evaluate its applicability. Task abilities, task completion time, and a satisfaction survey were compared between dentist trainees and dental students. Participants were instructed to observe virtual malocclusion models and then performed three tasks to diagnose the type of malocclusion, determine clinical findings and develop treatment plans. Their satisfaction with the simulation experience were evaluated using a questionnaire containing five questions. Task abilities of trainees related to clinical features and treatment plans were significantly higher than that of students(p < 0.01). In both groups, the task completion time for the second case was significantly reduced compared to that for the first case(p < 0.01). The satisfaction survey showed high scores and positive responses for this simulation in both groups. If the prototype of VR simulation is continuously advanced, it will be applicable for orthodontic education in pediatric dentistry.

Published: September 2021

The purpose of this study was to compare surface hardness between titanium-nitride coated crowns (TiNCs) and stainless steel crowns (SSCs), and to evaluate the corrosion resistance and color sustainability of TiNCs. Ten TiNCs and 10 SSCs were used for the hardness test. Measurement was performed 30 times for each type of crowns, and the mean values were compared. Metallic raw material plates (before being processed into crowns) of TiNCs and SSCs were prepared for the corrosion resistance test. The total amounts of metal ion releases in the test solution were detected by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry. Five TiNCs were subjected to the color sustainability test by applying repetitive brushing forces. The mean hardness values of TiNC group and SSC group were 395.53 ± 105.90 Hv and 278.70 ± 31.45 Hv respectively. Hardness of TiNCs were significantly higher than that of SSCs. The total amounts of metal ion releases from the materials of TiNCs and SSCs satisfied the criterion in International Organization for Standardization 22674. The results mean that TiNCs and SSCs were not harmful in an acidic environment. The golden coating was stable against the repetitive physical stimulations for a given period time.
Competing collective narratives in intergroup rapprochement: A transgenerational perspective
Authors: Jelić Margareta , Čorkalo Biruški Dinka , Ajduković Dean
Published: September 2021

In the context of an ethnically divided community, we explored the role of competing group narratives for intergroup rapprochement after violent conflict. In Study 1, data from a community survey conducted in Vukovar, Croatia, among 198 Croats, the local majority, and 119 Serbs, the local minority, were analysed to gain perspective on different narratives about the recent war and effects they may have on intergroup relations. In Study 2, focus groups with Croat and Serb children provided data to explore how these narratives were transmitted and transformed in living experience within the second generation. The quantitative results confirm the existence of opposing narratives of war among local Croats and Serbs. Multiple regression analyses show that, after controlling for exposure to war event and their personal impact, different factors predict rapprochement within the two groups. In the minority status group, that displayed higher overall levels of readiness for rapprochement, perceived ingroup victimization and outgroup stereotypes appeared more predictive than the outgroup affect. In contrast, within the majority group, variations in readiness for intergroup rapprochement were primarily predicted by outgroup affect, followed by perceived ingroup victimization. The qualitative inquiry complemented the findings from the survey. Despite the overwhelming dominant narrative, some alternative positions exist, but not consistent enough to be declared publicly. Perception of one’s own group as the primary victim of the war influences not only interpretations of the past, but also shapes identity, everyday life and future expectations. Mechanisms of perpetuating opposed narratives, as well as possible interventions, are discussed.

Representaciones sobre la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de la historia reciente peruana de los estudiantes del profesorado en ciencias sociales
Authors: Valle Taiman Augusta
Published: September 2021

Esta investigación se centra en las representaciones de la enseñanza y del aprendizaje de la historia reciente peruana de los estudiantes del profesorado en ciencias sociales. Planteamos dos preguntas: cómo son estas representaciones de la enseñanza y del aprendizaje de la historia reciente; y si estas representaciones contribuirían al desarrollo de la competencia “construye interpretaciones históricas” establecida en el currículo nacional. En el marco de la teoría fundamentada, triangulamos la información recogida en un cuestionario, una narración y una entrevista semi-estructurada. Así, identificamos representaciones comunes y proponemos 4 grupos: narradores; identitarios; develadores; y analíticos. Las conclusiones muestran que los futuros maestros se sienten inseguros de abordar temas de historia reciente porque consideran que carecen de las estrategias y la formación disciplinar necesaria. Advertimos que predomina una representación de la enseñanza transmisiva y organizada en torno a los gobernantes como protagonistas. Sólo los “analíticos” la enfocan a partir de temas que vinculan con problemáticas del presente. Las representaciones del aprendizaje de los “narradores” evidencian que para ellos aprender historia es narrar objetivamente los hechos. Los “identitarios” y “develadores” consideran que aprender historia reciente significa reconocer la verdadera interpretación de la historia caracterizada por malos gobiernos, la corrupción, la injusticia y el enfrentamiento entre explotados y explotadores. Solo los “analíticos” proponen actividades relacionadas a habilidades al desarrollo del pensamiento histórico que promoverían el logro de la competencia.

Published: September 2021

Os temas trabalhabilidade e empregabilidade têm evoluído bastante nos últimos anos, modificando o papel das pessoas na busca por suas carreiras profissionais. Dessa forma, tanto jovens quanto adultos precisam repensar como superar as deficiências advindas das transformações do mundo contemporâneo que requerem uma mutação constante do que são consideradas competências profissionais. O objetivo deste estudo é compreender a relação entre fatores da trabalhabilidade e implicações da COVID-19 no trabalho. A pesquisa é classificada como exploratória e o método aplicado é considerado como levantamento tipo survey. Utiliza a amostragem não-probabilística intencional, tendo como instrumento de pesquisa o questionário. O questionário foi aplicado em uma amostra de 87 respondentes no segundo semestre de 2020 em uma agência de trabalho do sistema nacional de emprego. O processamento e a análise de dados foram realizados em duas etapas: análise descritiva e exploratória. A trabalhabilidade é um conceito pouco explorado, mas de grande relevância para a disseminação do conhecimento a respeito de técnicas de diversificação do potencial do trabalho humano. Foi observado que a amostra consegue perceber a importância do desenvolvimento de suas habilidades pessoais e que adaptações são necessárias. Todavia, atingir as bases da empregabilidade é o primeiro passo para a construção do desenvolvimento da trabalhabilidade, e neste momento de pandemia, fatores como: admissões, demissões, desemprego, condições de trabalho e fatores que prejudicam a execução do trabalho implicaram diretamente no estabelecimento dos fatores de trabalhabilidade.

Published: September 2021

O estudo tem por objetivo analisar as características da pesquisa realizada acerca dos modelos de previsão de insolvência no contexto brasileiro, a partir de um fragmento da literatura. Para tanto, foi constituído um Portfólio Bibliográfico (PB) com base em uma busca na base de dados SPELL, por meio do termo modelos de previsão de insolvência, resultando em 18 artigos para análise de variáveis básicas e avançadas. Os resultados da pesquisa evidenciam muitos pesquisadores se interessam pelo tema, assim como vários periódicos no país, porém são poucos os estudos em rede e entre autores de diferentes instituições de ensino superior. Ainda, com base nos estudos identificados no PB, verifica-se que os modelos de previsão de insolvência mais utilizados são Elisabetsky (1976); Matias (1976); Kanitz (1978); Altman, Baidya e Dias (1979); Silva (1982); e, Sanvicente e Minardi (1998). Conclui-se que apesar do tema da pesquisa não ser novo, ainda há espaço para expansão, devendo ser observados os estudos anteriores e sua evolução. Espera-se que os achados contribuam com os pesquisadores da área e possibilite fomentar a aplicação dos modelos de previsão de insolvência nas empresas.

John A. Larsen: Conversation as Interview.

Talking about Cultural Articulations

in China

In the beginning of the article the theoretical

interest in the problems conceming the cultural

articulation of the minority group is

presented as the context for the methodological

thematic. On the basis of fieldwork

among the minority group Naxi in Southwestem

China this article examines the advantages

of viewing field conversations as different

kinds of interviews. Three interview types

are presented taking into account the formal,

systematic properties as the situations

under which the interviews took place.

Through the article more general problems

conceming the status of the fieldworker and

the use of interpreters are discussed. It is argued

that the understanding of data generating

conversations as type of interview allows

for a greater awareness of the formal

information as well as the discourses within

which this information is articulated. This

more systematic approach to the production

and analysis of field conversations has pro-

ved to be especially fruitful in the unveiling

of the discourses and processes behind an articulation

of the minority culture, which has

been the analytic aim of this investigation.

The author uses an example from an interdisciplinary

study among the Yupno in New

Guinea to point to the relevance of experiments

in anthropological research on

cognition. It is argued that an experimental

method makes it possible to get information

on the explicit and conscious use of cultural

knowledge individuals employ when they

solve posed problems. The results from the

space games made possible a more detailed

and clear insight in, and description of, the

arrangement and use of the three different

systems for spatial description among the

Yupno. A main point through the article is

that the results from the experiments only

make sense against the background of an extensive

fieldwork which provides a insight

into the ethnographical context necessary for

the analysis.

Ulla Hasager: The common reality of

anthropologists and Indigenous peoples:

three narratives

The „traditional object" of anthropology -

the indigenous peoples of the world - are

becoming an increasingly visible global factor

with the fourth world movements for

self-determination and with the United Nations’

efforts to create standards for indigenous

human rights. However, at the same

time as the indigenous peoples are celebrated

as guardians of environmental sustainability

and biological and cultural diversity

- and thereby for securing the memory

as well as the future of mankind - their lands

and resources are coveted by multinational

corporations, govemments and other agencies,

their genes are patented and preserved

and their cultures are recorded - most often

by anthropologists. In spite of these opposing

trends and threats, indigenous peoples

now have a more powerful position vis-å-vis

anthropologists, who on their part are beginning

to acknowledge the responsibilities that

come with being part of the same living world

as the indigenous peoples and therefore

have begun the task of revising their theoretical

foundations. Not only because they

want to, but because the relatively more powerful

and outspoken indigenous peoples

demand it. This article looks at the changing

situation for indigenous peoples in the Pacific,

primarily Hawai’i, and outline the consequences

for the conditions of research, methods

of research and publication for anthropologists.

FRELST OG REDDET FRA AIDS?: Unge pigers håndtering af risikoen for hiv i det sydvestlige Uganda
Authors: Wimberley Kristina
Published: September 2021

Kristina Wimberley: Saved from AIDS?

The Manoeuvres of Adolescent Giris in

Relation to the Risk of HIV in Southwestern

Uganda

This articles discusses the representation of

adolescent giris in the literature on AIDS and

in AIDS interventions. In these contexts an

image is created of adolescent giris as

passive victims of a static inequality in

societies pervaded by patriarchy, and as

driven by economic want. On the basis of

fieldwork material from Ankole, southwestern

Uganda, the articles discusses the

meaning of “being saved” for adolescent

giris in relation to the risk of HIV. For the

giris concemed, “being saved” is characterized

by conversion to a new lifestyle in

which they are virtuous, honest, kind, and

above all: avoid and reject men. However, at

some point even saved giris enter into

relationships with men. In this situation, the

giris may find it advantageous to continue to

be “really saved” in certain contexts. From

the analysis put forward here it emerges that

“being saved” as a form of discourse and

action enables giris to create a room for

manoeuvre that empowers them to tackle the

dangers they face - including HIV/AIDS.

This agency emerges in the interplay of, on

the one hand the constraining and enabling

effects of the various life worlds of giris in

Ankole, and on the other hand the way in

which gendered identities and relationships

are negotiated in everyday life between giris

and men, as well as among the giris

themselves. It is concluded that the standard

analysis of giris’ vulnerability in relation to

the risk of HIV/AIDS could benefit from an

actor-oriented approach that encompasses

the interplay between structure and process.

An analysis of this kind may reveal the

agency of giris, and not exclusively in relation

to economic want. This focus on agency

could be a point of departure for more

effective HIV/AIDS interventions.
DE INDRE GRÆNSER: Forestillinger om kultur og subkultur i sociale konstruktioner af hiv/aids i Danmark
Authors: Jöhncke Steffen
Published: September 2021

Steffen Johncke: The Boundaries Within.

Ideas about Culture and Subculture in

Social Constructions of HIV/AIDS in

Denmark.

Based on two studies with practical purposes,

this article presents critical analyses

of some of the social and political processes

involved in the construction of “gay men”

and “immigrants” as culturally distinet

groups in relation to HIV/AIDS in Denmark.

First an evaluation of a campaign that offers

information and support to men who have

sex with men is presented. The campaign is

based with a gay organisation, and it works

from the assumption that men who have sex

with men belong to a “homosexual subculture”,

although they do so in various

degrees. This assumption is challenged by

the experiences and opinions of members of

the target group interviewed in the cause of

the evaluation. The subculture imagery,

however, coincides with a dominant construction

in Danish HIV/AIDS policy: the

distinetion between homosexual men and

the general (heterosexual) population as

separate entities. This distinetion impedes

the delivery of relevant information to all

men who have sex with men. The second

study is concemed with Danish service

providers’ view of immigrants living with

HIV in Denmark. The service providers’

characterizations of immigrants and

accounts of problems of contact are shown

to express stereotypical images of “immigrants’

cultural backgrounds”. These images

are analysed as the inverted expressions of

the social and cultural norms typical of the

clinics and offices of the Danish health and

social services. In order to improve communication

and services, the Danish staff do

not need “more knowledge of more cultures”,

as they request - rather they need to

do critical self-reflection of their relationship

with all clients and patients. The article

concludes that anthropologists need to be

wary of the role played by the concept of

“culture” in relation to HIV/AIDS where it

FORHANDLING OG DOKUMENTATION: Traditionel lov i Øvreægypten
Authors: Nielsen H. C. Korsholm
Published: September 2021

C. Korsholm Nielsen: Negotiation and

Documentation. Customary Law in

Upper Egypt

This article is concemed with customary law

in a district in Upper Egypt. It is based on an

interpretation of fifty documents (mahadar

al-sulh) issued within the last 25 years in

connection with the settling of disputes

among the people of the area. The

documents were collected during ethnographic

field research carried out from 1994

until 1996. The article describes the

documents, their content, and the traditional

reconciliation councils (majålis al-sulh)

which issue them, and argues, that although

the introduction of documents - and thereby

“writing” - into the reconciliation process

could be expected to alter the tradition, it

seems that the documents are so closely

related to singular and unique cases that no

ostensible change is taking place. The tradition

is still transmitted orally and depends

on the experience of individual men. The

documents, rather, are introduced as

mnemonic devices related to singular cases

and do not constitute a body of legal text.

SÅRBARE KROPPE: Om den sociale og kulturelle konstituering af børns sårbarhed
Authors: Christensen Pia Haudrup
Published: September 2021

I et antropologisk studie, som jeg udførte i et lille lokalområde i Danmark, viste interaktioner

mellem bøm og voksne og mellem bøm indbyrdes at basere sig på kulturelle

opfattelser af barnet som en social person, af barnets krop og af sundhed og sygdom i

barndommen. Disse opfattelser havde betydning for de sociale positioner, som bøm og

voksne konventionelt indtog, når et bam kom til skade eller blev sygt. Et sygt bam blev

betragtet som værende særligt sårbart. Det betød, at voksne i sådanne situationer var aktive,

handlende og ansvarsfulde, hvilket til dels tildelte bøm positionen som det passive,

afhængige og modtagende objekt. I artiklen viser jeg, hvordan disse næsten rutinemæssige

sociale positioner kan ses som et specifikt udtryk for nogle fundamentale forestillinger

om bøm og barndom i dansk kultur.
„VORES ØL“ Ajon og sociale relationer i Teso, Østuganda
Authors: Henriques Peter
Published: September 2021

Peter Henriques: Our Beer: Ajon and

Social Relations among the Iteso, East

Uganda

When it comes to a description of Iteso

community life and commensality, the first

thing which comes to mind, both to the Iteso

themselves and to outside observers, is the

local beer, ajon. I claim here that the

consumption of ajon is a way of practicing

“the good life”, an ordered life where

oppositions in the system of social and

cultural reproduction are temporarily muted.

Ajon drinking is presented here as mediating

the ambivalence of good and evil found in all

central social relations among Iteso. But if

the consumption ideally is supposed to be

only merry sociability, this sociability is

under constant threat because of fear of

people who might want to harm others. Ajon

consumption can be dangerous, since the

beer party is also a place where people, under

cover of friendliness, may try to poison you

or practice witchcraft.

ANTROPOLOGIENS POTENS I ALER ETTER DEN PRIMITIVES DØD
Authors: Eriksen Thomas Hylland
Published: September 2021

Thomas Hylland Eriksen: Anthropology

and the Death of the Primitive

Although anthropologists for generations

have studied complex societies, the

disciplinary shift in focus from “traditional”

to “modem” phenomena has not as yet

penetrated anthropologists’ way of teaching

and theorizing. Even if a majority of anthropologists

now study people and places that

are deeply interconnected with the rest of the

world, the paradigmatic examples of anthropological

research are still the classic ones,

from Malinowski to Evans-Pritchard and

Douglas. This is not necessarily due merely

to conservatism in the discipline, but could

also indicate that the study of what was at the

time perceived as “radical Othemess”,

localized to societies presumed to be static

and isolated, was, if empirically misleading,

then exceptionally fruitful in generating

models and ideas pertaining to society and

culture. A question discussed in the article is

thus whether current work on globalization,

networks, cultural creolization et cetera (in

which the author himself is engaged), has the

same Creative potential as the study of

“primitive” society - or whether the very

craft of anthropology depends on an image

of “radical Othemess”.

INTERVIEW: FAR SIMULERER
Authors: Holmberg Lars
Published: September 2021

The article consists of an interview with a

man who has computerised flight simulation

as his hobby. In discussing his hobby, he

stresses the need for a hobby that has no

purpose except the entertainment. From his

desktop he simulates actual SAS-flights in

Denmark and Europe in real-time. This kind

of flight simulation is, in his own words, “as

real as it gets”, and that is just the point. The

virtual aspect presents him with a predicament,

however, since he has a limited amount

of spare time in which to fly, and thus he

mostly limits himself to shorter flights; the

flight from Copenhagen to Aalborg, with an

estimated 35 minutes, is his most frequent

route.

Spørgsmålet er, hvorfor det hjemlige er så svært at begribe, at man må via

omveje for at blive klogere på det. For Malinowski var svaret, at antropologiens

„hjemme“ er for komplekst, og han rådede derfor sine studerende til at „holde

sig til at lave rigtigt videnskabeligt arbejde i en uspoleret stamme“ (Gutkind

1974:51).

Håbets Fælde? Fortryllelse og universel skolegang i Uganda og Tanzania
Authors: Meinert Lotte , Kølner Mette
Published: September 2021

Lotte Meinert & Mette Kølner: The Trap of Hope? Enchantment and Universal Education in Uganda and Tanzania This article challenges the apparent global consensus, hope and belief in schooling as a primary tool for making the world a better place. Schooling is enchanting as an idea, because it entails a promise of improvement in the future – at political as well as individual levels. Based on missionary accounts and empirical cases of schooling in Uganda and Tanzania, we attempt to identify the enchantment and seduction that lures people into what appears to be moral traps. Despite endless examples of people who go through schooling without being able to materialise the hope that schooling will lead to a way out of poverty, why do parents keep sending children to school and why do children keep insisting on the importance of education? To answer this question we are inspired by Alfred Gell’s thoughts about enchantment (1992) and traps (1996). We point to the problems and social dynamics that are set in motion when the future cannot fulfill the promise of being the “modern and salaried citizens” which children start believing in as the only proper form of personhood during their school years. An important argument in the article is that the enchantment and entrapment of schooling is dynamic. It is not static and totally blinding, but a continuous and contested social process fluctuating between trust and distrust, enchantment and disenchantment. The hope and belief in education varies over time, during changing political discourses, historical periods and in individuals’ and families’ lives depending on experience, possibilities and structural limitations. We attempt to grasp the ambivalence and apparent contradictions that are inherent in schooling locally, by drawing a nuanced picture of the magical as well as the hopeless sides of schooling in East Africa.Keywords: Schooling, enchantment, hope, trap, Uganda, Tanzania.

Tavshedens konsekvenser: Tyrkiske kvinders oplevelser af vold i førægteskabelige parforhold
Authors: Tafdrup-Johansen Ida
Published: September 2021

Kvindelig seksualitet i Tyrkiet er spundet ind i et net af patriarkalske normer, familietraditioner og æresbegreber, og kvinders førægteskabelige liv er domineret af normative forventninger om ikke at være seksuelt aktive før ægteskab. Kvinder, som har seksuelle parforhold før ægteskab, er derfor omgærdet af tavshed. Parforholdene bliver ikke italesat, og kvinderne taler ikke om deres seksuelle erfaringer. Tavshed er ikke i sig selv problematisk. Problemet kan opstå med behovet for at bryde tavsheden. Denne artikel udforsker fysisk og psykisk vold og frygten for dette i seksuelle relationer mellem ugifte kvinder og mænd i Istanbul. De moralske normer om førægteskabelig kvindelig seksualitet medfører en ulige magtfordeling mellem partnerne og placerer kvinder i en position for potentiel udnyttelse. Omdrejningspunktet er, hvordan tavsheden opleves, de konsekvenser, den har, samt den sociokulturelle kontekst, som muliggør den ulige magtfordeling mellem mænd og kvinder, som får kvinderne til at forblive tavse. Søgeord: kvindelig seksualitet, førægteskabelig sex, vold, Istanbul, unge, moral  Practices of female sexuality in Turkey are woven into a net of patriarchal norms, family traditions and honour codes. Thus women’s premarital lives are dominated by a normative morality which bids women not to be sexually active before marriage. Women, who engage in premarital sexual relationships, are bound by silence. Their romantic relationships are not spoken about and the women do not speak about the sexual aspects of their lives. Only within close groups of friends is the silence broken. Silence itself does not appear to pose a problem, but problems can arise when the silence needs to be broken. This article investigates cases of violence – physical and psychological, as well as the fear of violence – within sexual relationships among unmarried women and men in Istanbul. The taboo surrounding female sexuality leads to an uneven allocation of power between partners and places women in a position of potential abuse. Young women who engage in premarital sex feel that they are not able to talk about their experiences, even if these include violence. Keeping silent about their sexual practices and, by association, the violence to which some women are subjected within these premarital relationships strengthens the normative moral that frowns upon premarital sex. Thus, this article explores how such silence is experienced, the consequences it fosters and the socio-cultural circumstances that enable this uneven power distribution between men and women. Keywords: Female sexuality, premarital sex, violence, Istanbul, youth, moral.

DEN ONTOLOGISKE BLÆNDING: Om den ontologiske vendings metodiske og politiske problemer
Authors: Sausdal David , Vigh Henrik
Published: September 2021

Denne artikel anlægger en kritisk synsvinkel på „den ontologiske vending“. Dens

argument er, at den ontologiske vending indeholder to centrale problemer: det

ene metodisk, det andet politisk. For det føste påeger artiklen vanskelighederne

ved at studere „en radikale Anden“ påontologiske betingelser. Hvis tilhægerne

af den ontologiske vending har ret i deres påtand om, at antropologien ikke

bø studere multiple „erdenssyn“, men fuldstædigt og essentielt forskellige

„erdener“, hvordan vil man sågåmetodologisk til dette? Sagt påen anden måe;

med hvilke registre kan vi som antropologer forståog beskrive ontologiske Andre

påmåer, der yder dem, og ikke blot antropologer/antropologien, retfædighed?

For det andet er radikal forskellighed som et analytisk udgangspunkt problematisk

med tanke påden indflydelse, antropologien har uden for universitetsverdenen.

Som historien har vist os, såskaber en inddeling af verden i radikalt forskellige

Andre base for politiske konstruktioner af ikke bare ligevædige, men ofte

mindrevædige Andre.
