Ethnic parties in the political systems of multiethnic states
Authors:   St. Petersburg University, Achkasov Valery A.
Published: November 2024

The article provides a comparative study of the place and role of “ethnic parties” in the modern world, in which ethnicity is extremely politicized, which often contributes to the emergence of interethnic conflicts and destabilization of the political systems of multiethnic states. The author analyzed six really practical ways of including ethnic parties in the political process: (1) ethnic parties representing minorities living compactly in a region advocate changing the status quo – an institutional transformation of center–regions interactions associated with an increase in the status and subjectivity of such a region/minority; (2) a regional ethnic minority, through an ethnic party, fights for the preservation of the status quo if there is a threat to the already existing status of the group or it has been lost for some reason; (3) the use of ethnic parties as a factor of influence from the outside, which is fraught with increased tension in the relations of two or more neighboring states; (4) situations when activities of ethnic parties contribute to the split, degradation and even destruction of political systems; (5) a situation when an ethnic/regional party seeks greater territorial autonomy or even the (re-)creation of “its own national state”; (6) activities of ethnic parties in the conditions of so-called “ethnic democracies”. Further, the institutional conditions for ensuring the political representation of ethnic minorities, while maintaining the stability of the political system, are investigated. As a result, the author comes to the conclusion: despite the fact that the ethnization of the political process potentially divides and even opposes people of different ethnicities and thereby can strengthen the split in society, the inclusion of ethnic parties in the developing of a national political course allows reducing interethnic tensions, and ethnic minority groups receive a channel for broadcasting their own needs and attitudes both to the state power and to non-ethnic citizens of the country. Therefore, the ban on the creation of ethnic and regional parties cannot be considered as a universal anti-crisis remedy and even more so as a panacea for all political ills.
Typologies of party systems in political science: the classic and the contemporary
Authors:   National Research Tomsk State University, Shpagin Sergey A.
Published: November 2024

The article characterizes the heuristic potential of modern typologies of party systems. Usually, when conducting comparative studies of political parties, quantitative typologies of party systems by Maurice Duverger, Jean Blondel and Giovanni Sartori are used. However, even their heuristic potential is only partially used. Therefore, the article draws attention to some features of these typologies. In particular, qualitative differences were noted between the two types of one-party systems described by Blondel – traditional and mobilization. Sartori’s analysis of party systems in shifting policies is also noteworthy. As a result of this analysis, four new types of (quasi-) party systems were formulated: dominant authoritarian, dominant non-authoritarian, non-dominant, and atomized. In addition, recently, political scientists have developed a number of new typologies and introduced new categories. Thus, Russell Dalton deepens the idea of the differences between authoritarian and adversarial party systems distinguishing exclusive and inclusive among authoritarian systems, and consensus, conflict, and consociative among adversarial ones. The evolution of Alan Siaroff’s typology is traced, which leads to a difference in party system and party model, as well as the emergence of new subtypes – one-party super-majority in a two-party system, dominance and dominance in a multi-party one. Grigorii Golosov, using a modified version of the Nagayama triangle, identifies polyvalent and bivalent systems with a dominant party, monovalent and polyvalent two-party systems, monovalent and bivalent multi-party systems. Finally, Immaculada Szmolka and Lucia G. del Moral conduct a comparative analysis of party systems based on four independent dimensions: competition, stability, the number of parties and the balance between them, polarization. Each measurement allows one to select from three to eight types of party systems, which creates a convenient set of characteristics. It is important to note that these typologies can be used to study party systems, both in stable and new volatile political systems.
New technologies of natural intelligence in reasoning automation tasks

Published: November 2024

One of the most important challenges that humanity will have to answer in the 21st century is its ability to master intelligence. This provides for the elaboration of a series of questions, including the following: Are there other, non-humanoid intellectual beings? In which variants, in relation to possible extra-human forms of intelligence, is human intelligence positioned (surpasses, lags behind, competes)? Using the topic of new technologies of natural intelligence in the automation of reasoning, the authors propose to shift the emphasis from the focus on the development of artificial intelligence as a competitor and even a threat to man in its strong version, to the task of a complex development of intelligence as a cosmic phenomenon. This focus provides for such a work plan, where the audit of natural intelligence should be the beginning. An assumption is made that the untapped potential of natural intelligence is very large, and its insufficient development was due to significant advances in computer automation. The authors propose to consider the prospects that open up from the use of categorical methodology in reasoning, and especially in their automation. Categories are defined by cognitive units that organize reasoning, and concepts are forms of thought that convey the meaning and content of reasoning. The experiments of implementing categorical methodology in dual and triadic constructions are discussed. It is stated that the potential of categorical schemes in the forms of triads is not sufficiently realized. The authors proceed from the assumption of a significant methodological potential contained in the theory of dynamic information systems (TDIS, DIS). TDIS can play the role of a base for the deployment of a categorical methodology. An example is given demonstrating the operation of a TDIS device. In conclusion, a summary is made about the expediency of the complex human development of intelligence, implemented in various ways and on a variety of natural and artificial media. A more important task, in comparison with the isolated improvement of artificial intelligence to the level of its strong version, is the work on the integration of individual intelligences. In principle, we can talk about a tremendous success in combining the computing power of computers in cloud technologies, but this is not the integration of intelligence.
At the turning point: Fyodor Stepun about the 1917 revolution and Soviet construction in Russia
Authors:   Seversk Institute of Technology – branch of the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI (Moscow Engineering Physics Institute), Gaman Lydia A.
Published: November 2024

The aim of the article is to highlight the historical, philosophical and religious views of Fyodor Augustovich Stepun (1884–1965), a scientist, philosopher, Christian thinker, about the 1917 Revolution and post-revolutionary Soviet construction in Russia. The relevance of the topic is justified, and the necessity of its further study is emphasized. The author characterizes the corpus of sources, including Stepun’s works of different years that comprehend this topic. The author emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of Stepun’s research strategy that combines scientific methods of knowledge, such as the critical method, the method of ideal-typical construction, the biographical method, the method of philosophical criticism of literary texts, and the main provisions of religious symbolism, which implies the study of history in the context of higher religious ideas. Based on such an interdisciplinary approach, Stepun considered the revolution as a religious and historical tragedy of the Russian people and the Christian world as a whole, while paying attention to a careful study of the factual material. Stepun’s ideas about the causes of the Revolution of 1917 are highlighted, in the structure of which he attributed a key place to the counterproductive policy of the Russian autocracy and World War I, which was unsuccessful for Russia. The complexity of Stepun’s ideas about the February and October revolutions is emphasized. Attention is focused on his positive attitude to the February Revolution, the main goal of which was the democratization of the Russian political system. Stepun also accepted the October Revolution, which raised the world-wide theme of socialism, connected, in his opinion, with the Christian project of the transformation of the world. The thinker’s ideas about the religious consciousness of the people as a factor of their political activity in the revolutionary epoch are analyzed. A positive attitude is observed. Stepun’s ideas about the revolutionary game, in his interpretation reflecting the population’s search for forms of social adaptation in the first post-revolutionary years, are considered. His deep rejection of Bolshevism as a political system with its God-fighting and class ideology, which contributed to the widespread state violence and immoralism in the country, is emphasized. It is concluded that Stepun’s conception of the 1917 Revolution and Soviet construction in Russia is meaningful, and that it is relevant to contemporary Russian society.

Getiri, yatırım veya finansal bir varlığın, genellikle belirli bir dönemdeki mali sonuçlarını ifade eden bir terimdir. Yatırımcıların finansal karar alma sürecinde getiri önemli bir rol oynar. Kazançlarını en büyüklemek isteyen yatırımcılar yatırımın riskini, vadeyi ve diğer faktörleri de göz önünde bulundurmalıdır. Finansal hayat belirsizliklerle dolu olup gelecekteki günlerin yatırımcıya ne getireceğini tahmin etmek oldukça güçtür. Kazançlar çoğu durumda kesin olmayıp birçok belirsizlik barındırdığından, tahmini kazancın elde edilmesini sağlayan beklenen getiri kavramı ortaya çıkmaktadır. Beklenen getirinin tam olarak belirlenemediği durumlarda, yatırımcılar beklenen getirinin en yüksek değeri için riskin en düşük seviyelerde olmasını beklerler. Ayrıca, yatırım kalitesini artırabilmek için yatırımcılara geleceğe yönelik alternatif portföy seçenekleri sunulması oldukça önemlidir. Bu çalışmada Borsa İstanbul 50 (BIST 50)’ da yer alan hisse senetlerinin günlük 2. Seans kapanış değerleri alınarak portföy seçeneklerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla bulanık ve stokastik Konno Yamazaki modeli ele alınmıştır. Belirsizlik içeren ve kesin olarak belirlenemeyen beklenen getiri miktarının bulanık ve rassal olduğu varsayımları altında bulanık doğrusal programlanma ve şans kısıtlı programlama yaklaşımları modelin çözümü için kullanılmıştır.

Published: November 2024

This paper presents the results of the faunal analysis of the bone remains recovered in the Islamic suburb located on the Roman theater of Cartagena (Murcia), with a broad chronological overview (ss. X-XIII). Thanks to the analysis of 6,940 bone elements recovered in dumps associated with houses, the consumption patterns and livestock strategies of a city that is recovering its importance from the 10th century, within the Islamic orbit, are inferred, which will leave a mark on consumption patterns associated with identity and cultural issues. In this way, the progressive loss of the ruralized image of the previous period (Byzantine era) is observed and progress is made towards a market economy typical of a big city. This work emphasizes the potential of archaeofaunistic studies to determine cultural issues.

Published: November 2024

In real world while addressing the challenges of ambiguity and vagueness, the problems call for a scientific approach to quantify the uncertainties. The negative binomial distribution, a cornerstone in classical probability theory, traditionally examines the probability of achieving the kth success in n trials, following failures, with precise observations. However, the available literature does not address the occurrence of observations in the intervals and hence the handling of interval-valued data remained unattended. This study introduces the neutrosophic negative binomial distribution which is extended from the classical version by incorporating both indeterminacy and crisp intervals. We derive various properties of this generalized distribution which includes; characteristic function, probability function and moment generating function. This study also presents the reliability analysis metrics like cumulative hazard rate, Mills ratio, survival hazard rate, odds ratio and reversed hazard rate. This study explores the order statistics for neutrosophic negative binomial distribution, encompassing with joint, maximum, minimum and median order statistics. Special case studies are discussed which demonstrate the application of the proposed distribution, paving the way for addressing complex problems that combine conventional approaches with non-precisely determined information.
STATISTICAL INTEGRATION OF QGIS AND MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION ANALYSIS FOR SUSTAINABLE RURAL DEVELOPMENT IN BELSAR DEVELOPMENT BLOCK
Authors: Shukla Ashutosh , ONO Hiroko
Published: November 2024

The definition of “rural areas” varies significantly across regions, making the determination of rurality levels crucial for sustainable development and effective policy design. This study introduces a comprehensive rurality index to rank and categorize villages within the Belsar Development Block of Gonda District, India. Utilizing Multiple-criteria Decision-making Methods (MCDMs) such as Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (F-AHP), Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), Weighted Product Model (WPM), and Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluations (PROMETHEE), we developed a robust methodology for this assessment. A thorough sensitivity analysis was also conducted to ensure the reliability of the results. The study identified fourteen critical factors, grouped into five domains: (1) socioeconomic status, (2) education, (3) land use, (4) employment, and (5) healthcare. Based on these factors, villages were ranked and classified into four categories according to their rurality levels, and a detailed rurality map was created with QGIS. The study revealed that the modified F-AHP emerged as the most effective MCDM method for this rurality assessment. Given the systematic execution of this assessment, it can serve as a model for comparative studies in other regions of India and globally, promoting sustainable rural development through informed decision-making.

Authors: Gohain Bhargob , Das Jyotishman , Gohain Deepjan , Singh B. K.
Published: November 2024

In literature, there are many estimators of finite population mean, some of which are superior to the others. In practical situations, all the information on sample units may not be available due to non-response in sample surveys. Thus, our objective in this study is to get more precise estimators of the finite population mean of the study variable under two-phase sampling in case of missing data. Three new logarithmic ratio cum logarithmic product type imputation methods and corresponding point estimators have been introduced and observed to be better under two-phase sampling, which adds contribution to the field of imputation techniques. The bias and mean square errors of the proposed estimators are calculated in terms of population parameters. The performance of the proposed estimators is compared theoretically and empirically as well with existing traditional estimators.
INSTABILITY OF THE LEXICO-GRAMMATICAL SYSTEM OF THE EARLY BYZANTINE GREEK LANGUAGE: PROCESSES AND CAUSES
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Zvonska Lesia
Published: November 2024

Вackground. The article examines the peculiarities of the early Byzantine Greek language at the main levels of the language structure: phonetic, grammatical and lexical. Methods. Descriptive, comparative, lexico-grammatical and linguistic-historical analysis. Results. The phenomena of simplification, unification, mixing of generic features and interpenetration of paradigms in the name system are analyzed. In the verb system, the process of mixing perfect and aorist forms in the lexical-semantic and grammatical-morphological plan, the irregularity of the future tense system, significant fluctuations in the use of periphrastic constructions with future and perfect meaning, the spread of analytical form formation, the formation of lexical-grammatical verbalization of the species category can be traced. In the participle system, there is a mixing of gender and case forms, a loss of relative-temporal functional distinction; active participles acquire the functions of the gerund. In the system of syntax, the prepositional use of cases is narrowed, and as a result of morphological changes affecting the subjunctive and optative paradigms, the usual rules of hypotaxis change. It is noted that during this period, two directions of the development of the Greek language developed and were clearly defined: the literary one, with the preservation of Atticistic tendencies, and the non-literary one, which sought to further develop the vernacular language. Linguistic, social, historical and cultural causes of language phenomena of the early Byzantine era are noted. The lexicon of the first centuries of Byzantium was influenced by word-formation models of the Latin language, and later New European and Eastern ones, and consistently used ancient Greek composites, however, often violating the usual models of composite word formation of the classical period. Conclusions. The processes of the development of the Greek language of the early Byzantine era are described, a tendency to significant morphonological, lexicо-grammatical and functional-semantic changes in the noun and verb system, which are characterized by considerable instability, is observed.
THE MOTIF OF PHYTOMETAMORPHOSIS IN THE POETIC WORKS OF TARAS SHVCHENKO AND OVID
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Ruda Natalia
Published: November 2024

Background. The study is devoted to a comparative analysis of the motif of phytometamorphosis in Ovid's poem "Metamorphoses" and three romantic ballads by Taras Shevchenko in order to establish common characteristics of functioning and to find out the reasons and authorial features of the use of thе denoted motif. Despite the widespread view that the plots of the analyzed ballads by Taras Shevchenko are inspired by the literary art of European romantics and national folklore motifs the paper argues for the rationality of drawing analogies between the use of the motif of phytometamorphosis in Ovid's poem and the balladry of the Ukrainian poet. Methods. In carrying out the research, a set of linguistic and literary methods was used: descriptive, comparative, mythopoetic, linguistic and cultural, functional, and psychoanalytic methods. Results. The parallels and authorial peculiarities in the use of the motif of transformation in the story about Apollo and Daphne, as described in Ovid's Metamorphoses, and the ballad "Topol" by Taras Shevchenko are identifiedThe reason for the change in form in both works is the rescue of the heroines from threatening circumstances. It is established that the main poetic function of the metamorphosis technique in the ballads "Poplar" and "Around a grove in an open field" is to soften the tragic ending of the narrative. The reasons for the florometamorphoses in the plots of Ovid's poem and Taras Shevchenko's ballad "Lilea" are analyzed, and the common semantic and functional features of this motif in the compared works are established. Some similarities related to the motif of metamorphosis in Ovid's poem and Ukrainian folklore are noted. Conclusions. On the basis of the study, the general summary theses on the genesis, functions and authorial peculiarities using the metamorphosis motif in the balladry of Taras Shevchenko and Ovid's poem "Metamorphoses" are made.

The article proposes information technology for navigation and flight control of UAVs based on spectral portraits of the area. The urgency of the work is caused by the appearance in wide access of robotic unmanned aerial vehicles, which creates fundamentally new challenges for the failure of navigation equipment. This makes it possible for a terrorist group to organize even an effective cyber attack on the navigation and control system of several UAVs. In addition, existing solutions for UAV flight control by a radio operator can be relatively easily blocked by electronic warfare (EW) means by arranging electromagnetic interference for the control channel. A possible solution to protect terrorist groups from EW is to use the proposed information navigation technology based on spatial-spectral portraits of the area, when the UAV focuses on pre-loaded libraries of 95 landmarks in the area. In the case of using a small number of reference points or landmarks, they can be falsified or destroyed, but when using a large number of objects, taking into account not only their geometry but also spectral portrait, their falsification in the event of failure of navigation equipment and use of EW by terrorist groups. complicated. It has been experimentally established that the influence of the state of illumination on the spectral parameters of objects should be taken into account when using the most common and cheapest spectral sensors in the optical range. Based on these considerations, the aim of the research is to develop a methodological approach to the correction of lighting effects to determine in the optical range of spectral portraits of objects. The research was carried out in the laboratory and directly on the experimental field hospital, as a result of which the dependences of the intensity of color components on the value of LightValue were established on the example of a gray pattern (saturation 69%). It has been experimentally confirmed that when the lighting changes, the calibration of spectral data based on service data from the camera can be performed for different camera models. For the practical needs of spatial-spectral navigation, the correction when the lighting changes is expedient to carry out using experimentally obtained dependences for a specific model of sensor equipment. When organizing the navigation system of the UAV on the basis of spatial-spectral portraits, it is advisable to choose as objects of orientation those that have the most stable spectral indicators.

Complex technical objects are understood as objects consisting of a large number of different types elements (tens, hundreds of thousands), each of which can represent a rather complex technical device. Elements can be electronic, mechanical, electromechanical, hydraulic, etc. The diversity of elements leads to the fact that for various elements fundamentally different physical processes (and, consequently, rates) of degradation are characteristic, leading to their failures. Objects can have an arbitrary reliability structure (as a rule, serial-parallel). The structural structure of such objects is usually hierarchical, that is, an object consists of subsystems, subsystems consist of units (cabinets), units - of devices (blocks), etc. A characteristic feature of complex technical objects for special purposes is the presence in their composition of a large number (tens, hundreds of thousands) of different types of component parts that have different levels of reliability, different patterns of their wear and tear processes. This feature requires a more subtle approach to the organization and planning of maintenance during their operation. The problem is that during the development of such facilities, all issues related to maintainability and maintenance should be addressed already at the early stages of facility design. If you do not provide in advance the necessary hardware and software for the built-in monitoring of the technical condition (TC) of the object, do not develop and “build” the maintenance technology into the object, then it will not be possible to realize in the future a possible gain in the reliability of the object due to maintenance. Since all these issues must be resolved at the stage of object creation (when the object does not yet exist), mathematical models of the maintenance process are needed, with the help of which it would be possible to calculate the possible gain in level of reliability facility due to maintenance, to estimate the cost costs required for this. Then, based on such calculations, make a decision on the need for maintenance for this type of objects and, if such a decision is made, develop the structure of maintenance system, choose the most acceptable maintenance strategy, and determine its optimal parameters. This paper provides a comparative study of various maintenance strategies. The paper also confirms that the optimal parameters of various maintenance strategies significantly depend on both the reliability and cost structure of object and the specified requirements for the level of reliability of object.

The paper considers the construction of a budget (no more than $ 150) aircraft-type UAV, which is able to perform the following flight modes: holding altitude and position, automatic return to the take-off point on command from the control panel or loss of communication with it, automatic flight along a given trajectory. During flight tests, the high aerodynamic qualities of the C-1 CHASER flying wing model were noted compared to models that were made from foam on their own. So, the flight time increased by ~ 25%, the speed by ~ 30% with the same flight weight and power consumption from the battery. It was experimentally established that it is possible to fly along the points of a designed aircraft with an APM 2.6 flight controller and Arduplane firmware with the obligatory use of a barometer and a magnetometer, in the same way as for a rotor-type UAV for performing similar tasks. The possibility was established using the Mission Planner ground station and the Google Earth Pro service to construct a real flight path of an aircraft using log files generated by the flight controller. The correspondence between the real flight trajectory of the aircraft and the trajectory entered into the flight controller using a ground station was experimentally determined. During flight tests, the correct operation of the failsafe mode was shown in the event of a loss of communication with the control equipment. The maximum operating range of the FlySky FS-i6 control equipment with the FS-IA6B receiver was set, which was 1.3 km in the absence of interference in the field. It was found that when the failsafe mode is disabled, the wing can fly to a distance from the take-off point, limited only by the battery charge (about 40 minutes at a speed of 40-45 km / h). When analyzing real flight trajectories, it was found that the firmware of the Arduplane, when flying along the trajectory, provides a more accurate passage of flight points, and the sections of passage between the points are straightforward, in contrast to the flight with the INAV firmware. We also noticed a smoother behavior of the wing when making turns, in contrast to the INAV.

The analysis of features of various communication systems first of all cable, fiber-optic with use of a radio channel and laser communication is carried out in work. The advantages and disadvantages of these systems are shown. The cost of these four implementations is relatively the same, the time for deployment in the laser system is 1-2 weeks, which is several times less than in the others; bandwidth is relatively the same, but the maximum communication activity is shorter - only up to 1200m. It has been shown that a significant advantage of laser systems is that they have transparency for most protocols; - data transfer rate in the announced equipment up to 1 Gbps; - high quality of communication; - no need to comply with a special permit; - relatively low cost of equipment, etc. In addition, the main goal of the article is to generalize the process of simulation to create a secure laser communication channel in separate stages with the formulation of tasks on each of them. This improves the quality of research and enables the creation of new competitive products. Simulation means achieving the essence of the phenomenon without resorting to experiments on a real object. When creating a conceptual model, the area of source data (information space) is formed almost in parallel. At this stage, the quantitative characteristics (parameters) of the object and its elements are revealed, the numerical values of which are the initial data for modeling. It is usual that a significant part of the system parameters are probable values. Therefore, the choice of the laws of distribution of probable quantities, approximation of functions, etc. is of special importance in the formation of the initial data.

The article is devoted to the application of the latest technology of ecological monitoring of the city on the basis of identification and assessment of the condition of plantations with the use of satellite images. Based on the application of such technology, the development of information systems for environmental monitoring in cities and areas of potentially environmentally hazardous industries is provided, which requires constant environmental monitoring. The current state of solving the problems of environmental monitoring of cities for various reasons can not be considered satisfactory. The purpose of the research is to develop methodological bases for identification and assessment of the green mass of plantations from satellite images of megacities to build an environmental monitoring system. Based on the fact that the dimensions of plants for satellite imagery are too small, ecological monitoring was carried out on the basis of green mass of trees, the dimensions of which are sufficient for their identification and determination of spectral indices of plants. The research was conducted using digital photographs of the Obolon district in Kyiv in the optical and infrared range from spacecraft. The selection of research sites was carried out using Microsoft Picture Manager simultaneously for both ranges. Areas visually identified as tree canopies in the sun and shade, lawns in the sun and shade, asphalt parking lot and the roof of the building were considered. Plot sizes: The minimum side of the plot was 16 pixels. For clarity, additional coefficients were introduced in the display of certain visually experimental samples and the building quarter to obtain a single order of magnitude. Data processing was performed using MathCad. It was proposed to conduct spectral indices for environmental monitoring, which take into account several components of color needed to assess the condition of plants. The results of the research showed that the spectral indices proposed for infrared imaging provide identification of green mass, both in the shade from buildings and in direct sunlight.

A Field Study on Social Capital, Culture of Living Together and Neighborhood Relations
Authors: Keleş Şerafettin
Published: November 2024

Turkey, which is the intersection of Europe, Asia and Africa, has been the main route of migration throughout human history. Forced migrants coming to Turkey have low-skilled labor and mostly consist of farmers engaged in agriculture in rural areas. Turkey settles migrants migrating from nearby geography in districts where agricultural production is carried out in rural areas and can employ these migrants in agricultural production. When the host community trusts the migrants, they can treat them warmly, neighborly relations begin and a culture of living together that is beneficial for both parties is formed. This study aimed to investigate on-site the contribution of social capital to the neighborhood relations and the culture of living together process established by Meskhetian Turks settled in Üzümlü District of Erzincan Province since 2016 with the residents of Üzümlü District. In line with this objective, a survey was conducted with 269 Meskhetian Turks migrating from the Russian Federation. In the analyses conducted with Structural Equation Modeling, it was determined that Meskhetian Turks developed very good neighborhood relations with the people of Üzümlü District of Erzincan Province and created a culture of living together. While the Bonding Social Capital contributed positively to this process, the Bridging Social Capital had a negative effect. The study approaches the issue of migration within the scope of “microeconomic migration theories”. The economic needs and desires of individuals are taken as basis.

BACKGROUND: Every year there is an increase in the number of patients with thyroid diseases, thus improving surgical treatment methods with decreased traumatic effect and postoperative complications, remains relevant.
AIM: To summarize the results of 25-year work of the team (surgeons and endocrinologists) of specialists from the multidisciplinary hospital of Saint Petersburg and the departments of the North-Western State medical university named after I.I. Mechnikov on the diagnosis and treatment of patients with surgical pathology of the thyroid gland.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The results of surgical treatment of 3977 patients with thyroid diseases operated accoding to the traditional Kocher approach, asymmetric “floating” mini-approach and video-assisted mini-approach were analyzed.
RESULTS: In the analyzed time period, a rapid increase in the number of minimally invasive techniques for surgical operations on the thyroid gland is characteristic, which are used for nodular euthyroid goiter, multi-nodular euthyroid goiter and toxic thyroid adenoma. With the help of traditional approach, surgical intervention was performed mainly for diffuse toxic goiter and multinodular toxic goiter. The introduction of new techniques and approaches in the provision of medical care to patients with surgical diseases of the thyroid gland can significantly improve the results of treatment.
CONCLUSIONS: 25-year experience of the endocrinological center of the Elizabethan Hospital demonstrates that collaboration of departments and doctors of a multidisciplinary hospital allows to introduce new approaches to treating surgical thyroid diseases and improve its results without increasing the number of postoperative complications.
“Isso aqui como que fala em português?"
Authors: Santos Aléxia Islabão dos , Frezza Minéia
Published: November 2024

Esta pesquisa visa analisar interacionalmente excertos de um vídeo publicado no YouTube e intitulado “24 HORAS FALANDO PORTUGUÊS NO BRASIL!!!”. Nesse vídeo, três amigos coreanos frequentam diferentes estabelecimentos comerciais de São Paulo para interagir com falantes de português brasileiro. A partir das interações, é possível identificar diversas ações performadas para conseguirem se fazer entender enquanto falam esse idioma. A análise aprofundada dessas ações constitui o tema desta pesquisa. Através das interações disponíveis no vídeo, objetiva-se identificar quais práticas e ações interacionais foram utilizadas para atingir a intersubjetividade ao falar português como língua adicional com brasileiros. Como objetivos secundários, a pesquisa visa descrever essas práticas e ações de modo a verificar quais são exitosas no atingimento dos propósitos interacionais e, também, observar as práticas acionadas pelos falantes de língua portuguesa para facilitar o entendimento de Rico, organizador do vídeo analisado, e seus amigos na e pela fala-em-interação. Além disso, almeja-se evidenciar se essas práticas poderiam ser levadas para a sala de aula de Português como Língua Adicional (PLA). Para atingir os objetivos propostos, a presente pesquisa está ancorada na perspectiva metodológica da Análise da Conversa (Sacks; Schegloff; Jefferson, 1974), cujo principal objetivo é descrever ações utilizadas por falantes comuns ao participar de interações inteligíveis e socialmente organizadas. Para essa análise, os dados foram transcritos por meio das convenções de Jefferson (1984) e Mondada (2022). A partir da transcrição e do escrutínio dos dados disponíveis, foi possível identificar várias práticas e ações relevantes para as interações ocorridas no vídeo, como mímicas e repetições. Essas ações foram descritas, de modo a evidenciar a construção conjunta de entendimento nesse contexto.
Multi-Level Approach for Critical Discourse Analysis
Authors: Adeeb Eman Riyadh , Vieira Rodrigo Drumond
Published: November 2024

This study addresses methodological issues of critical discourse analysis and shows how an analytical multi-level approach we developed can be useful in adding theoretical resources and systematization to its methods. The analytical approach is grounded on the macrostructure of human activity (activity, actions, operations) and appropriates resources from text linguistics and sociolinguistics. We crossed this approach with historical and positioning discourses to identify ways of talking, foregrounded, and concealed meanings and ideologies in the statement of the ex-Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Boris Johnson as delivered to the House of Commons on Ukraine on 24 February 2022. Our results point out he established an agreement with the House through an explanatory statement with the predominance of the use of informing discursive procedures, which corresponded for almost half of his procedures. Most of the time Johnson spoke in the future tense through the intense use of the modal auxiliary verb “will”. These, among other linguistic choices, collaborated to conceal the United States and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s roles in the invasion of Ukraine, framing responsibility solely on the president of Russia. In conclusion, we comment on the contributions and limitations of the analytical approach.
