Razón práctica y educación moral (Schiller, Rawls, Searle)
Authors: Rodríguez Neira Teófilo
Published: November 2020

RESUMEN: Este artículo presenta alguna de las alternativas que se han ofrecido para explicar los juicios y los comportamientos morales. No siempre se han utilizado los mismos criterios ni se han defendido las mismas interpretaciones. Si no tenemos resueltos estos problemas, la educación moral carece de sentido. Al prestar atención a la razón práctica, se ve en ella, más allá del formalismo kantiano, el verdadero fundamento de la educación moral.ABSTRACT: This essay presents some of the alternatives which have been offered to explain moral judgments and behaviours. The same criteria have not always been used ñor the same interpretations have been defended. If we have not got these problems solved, moral education lacks all sense. When we pay attention to practical reason, we see in it, beyond kantian formalism, the real basis of moral education.
Hacia una teoría sobre el rendimiento académico en enseñanza primaria a partir de la investigación empírica: datos preliminares
Authors: Nieto Martín Santiago
Published: November 2020

RESUMEN: La investigación educativa sobre el rendimiento académico ha formado parte de una constante de indagación y conocimiento sobre el tema durante los últimos treinta años en nuestro país. Sin embargo, el gran volumen de trabajo acumulado no parece haber contribuido suficientemente a la creación de una teoría consistente sobre el rendimiento académico, y, mucho menos, haber seguido la estela de exigencia que comporta la creación de teorías científicas sobre la cuestión. Se produce la constatación de gran cantidad de tendencias, pero no se establecen conocimientos de mayor alcance dadas las limitaciones de los diseños metodológicos bajo los que se han llevado a cabo la mayoría de las investigaciones. Ante esta situación, proponemos la consecución de las denominadas teorías de alcance intermedio con el fin de desarrollar un esquema conceptual progresivo más general que promueva la consolidación de grupos de teorías especiales, de las cuales derivar hipótesis que se puedan investigar empíricamente con mayor profundidad.ABSTRACT: Educational research into academic performance has formed part of a constant subject of study in the last thirty years in Spain. However, the large volume of work that has been accumulated does not seem to have contributed sufficiently to the creation of a coherent theory of academic performance, and much less to have followed the path demanded of scientific theories on the matter. A large amount of trends are confirmed, but knowledge of a broader scope has not been established given the limitations of the methodological designs under which most of the research has been carried out. Faced with this situation, we propose to attain so-called middle range theories in order to develop a more general progressive conceptual scheme to promote the consolidation of groups of special theories from which to derive hypotheses that can be investigated empirically in greater depth.SOMMAIRE: Depuis les années 70, le rendement académique a toujours été objet de recherche dans notre pays. Or, les nombreux travaux existant à ce propos ne semblent pas avoir contribué suffisamment au développement d’une théorie consistante répondant aux exigences propres aux théories scientifiques sur la matière. Étant donné les limitations des développements méthodologiques de la plupart des recherches menées, un grand nombre de tendances ont été confirmées mais des connaissances d’une plus grande portée n’ont pas pu être établies. Dans ce travail, on propose donc la consécution des dénommées théories à moyenne portée dans le but de développer un schéma conceptuel progressif plus général promouvant la consolidation de groupes de théorie spéciales à partir desquels on établira des hypothèses permettant une recherche empirique plus profonde.

RESUMEN: un este artículo se analiza la situación actual de la formación del profesorado universitario en su dimensión docente, y se presenta un modelo teórico para la gestión integral de dicha formación. Este modelo se sustenta en la reingeniería de procesos e implica un cambio de triple ciclo o cultural en la concepción de la profesionalización docente en el contexto de la Educación Superior. Por otra parte, se muestran pautas para la intervención pedagógica estableciendo vías posibles de aplicación de dicho modelo, apoyándose para ello en las conclusiones derivadas de la Evaluación de los Planes de Evaluación para la docencia del profesorado en el que la Universidad Politécnica de Valencia ha participado como institución piloto. De todo el análisis realizado surgen recomendaciones para la práctica tanto desde la perspectiva de la política educativa de las universidades como de los organismos técnico-pedagógicos cuyo cometido sea el desarrollo de dichos programas.ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes current training for teachers in higher education. A theoretical model for a holistic training program is presented. The model is based on reengineering processes and implies a triple cycle or cultural change in teaching professionalization in the higher education context. Guidelines are set out for pedagogical intervention establishing possible approaches for practising the model, sustained by conclusions derived from the National Evaluation Plan, in which the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia participated as a pilot institution. Recommendations are given for implementing the proposed program, as well as for university policy on teacher education programs and techno-pedagogical bodies whose task is the development of the programs suggested.SOMMAIRE: Cet article analyse la situation actuelle de la formation des professeurs universitaires par rapport à l’enseignement.

Activities of the Mining Police in Pre-Revolutionary Russia in the Early 20th Century (the Irkutsk and Priamursk Governorates-general, as an Example)
Authors: Belozercev S.M.
Published: November 2020

The article is devoted to a less studied topic — research of the main directions of activity of mining police of the beginning of the 20th century in the East of Russia. Far Eastern and East Siberian mining-police units were headed by the mining police chiefs (ispravniki), who were subordinate in their activities — the Irkutsk and Priamursk governorates-general. In the East of Russia, the mining police at the beginning of the 20th century carried out activities to protect public order, monitor compliance with criminal, labour and commercial legislation in the zone of mountain districts.

The article deals with the structure of the mining police, the powers of the mining police. Normative legal acts regulating the regular construction of mining police in the region under study are being studied.

The materials of the study were articles of scientists, norms of legislation of the Russian Empire, departmental acts of the Ministry of State Property, archival documents. The methodological basis of the study is a set of popular scientific methods, such as analysis, synthesis, comparison, and special methods — historical-legal, systemic-structural, comparative-legal.

The result of the study was an analysis of the process of gradual change of the legislation of the Russian Empire in terms of the description of the functions of the mining police in the zone of mines of the Irkutsk and Priamursk governorates-general.
Family Values of Siberian Merchants
Authors: Kolokolceva N.Yu.
Published: November 2020

The article discusses with topical issues of social history of Russia in the second half of the 19th — early 20th centuries on the example of one class. Active modernization processes in Russia changed not only the foundations of economic development, but also the collective consciousness. The "catch-up" type of modernization is usually associated with the peculiarities of the Russian economy and the dominance of state interests. Without denying this position, it should be noted that if there is no change in the views of the population, the formation of new values, we should not expect positive and effective results. The Russian merchant class accumulated significant economic resources in its hands, but it was extremely slow to enter into new processes, which, from our point of view, is primarily due to social conservatism. This is most evident in the maximum protection from external influences of family values. However, it should be noted that under the influence of time, in the beginning of 20th century there has been a change. Intra-family relations most clearly reflected in a concentrated form the origin and status of each member of the family, and the attitude to the emerging changes. Through the memories of representatives of these families, the heterogeneity of the social appearance of representatives of the class will be shown. Conservatism in the family did not mean denying progress at all, it was a desire to maintain reliable "rear". As history shows, stable developing societies protect and cultivate family values.

The problem of exploring a territory for designing a full-scale gamma observatory is discussed. It is caused by the need to increase the sensitivity and energy threshold for detecting gamma rays of the existing TAIGA gamma observatory array.

The study of astroclimatic conditions over the territory of the Khovsgol Aimag (Mongolia) was carried out for the purposes of performing nighttime astrophysical observations. Spatial distributions of cloudless events fraction and atmospheric water vapor content were obtained for several periods of active phases of astrophysical observations using the night-time data from the VIIRS instrument onboard Suomi NPP satellite as well as hyperspectrometer AIRS onboard Aqua satellite.

Analysis of satellite data has shown that upon topographic and infrastructure criteria, the plateau of Lake Khuvsgul is the most suitable region for the deployment of a full-scale gamma-ray observatory with a hybrid detector system. According to VIIRS/SNPP data over the territory of interest for two seasons, it was revealed that the average fraction of cloudless events is about 65 % and the atmospheric water vapor content (according to AIRS/ Aqua data) is low, amounting to 2-2.5 kg/m2.
Analysis of the Mathematical Model of Photosynthesis in Protected Ground
Authors: Zhuravleva V.V. , Manicheva A.S. , Martynova A.A.
Published: November 2020

The problem of predicting changes in the intensity of photosynthesis associated with changes in the lighting mode, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration, and the temperature is urgent. Appropriate models can help choose the optimal mode of growing plants in protected soil, as well as serve as a basis for predicting the consequences of global climate change. It is noted that in the conditions of protected soil, the most significant factor is the illumination of plants. The aim of the research is to construct an algorithm for additional illumination of plants in protected ground conditions based on a mathematical model of photosynthesis. The authors introduced the value of the efficiency of additional illumination and studied its dependence on the coefficient of light transmission of the roof. The solution of the main task of the study is achieved by the fact that the light mode in protected ground structures is carried out on the basis of additional illumination to the ideal (optimal) for this type of plant. The entered value of the efficiency of additional illumination shows what energy costs will be for the production of photosynthesis products and, as a result, allows estimation of the economic costs. The considered method of artificial lighting of plants makes it possible to effectively use both sunlight and artificial lighting, providing an optimal lighting mode all year round, and allows to increase the intensity of photosynthesis by 50-80 %.

Guinea pig diet is essentially based on the use of grasses associated with protein sources. Then, in to improve the herbivores nutrition, the evaluation of intake and In vivo digestibility of Pennisetum purpureum or Panicum maximum in guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) was carried out in January 2017 at the University of Dschang research and experimental farm and animal production and nutrition laboratory. 20 adult animals of local breed on average weight 450 ± 50g and aged about 5 months were used. They were organized into two batches of 10 animals each (5 males and 5 females). The first batch received 250g of fresh matter of Pennisetum purpureum + 60g concentrate/animal/day, while the second received the same treatment with Panicum maximum as grasses. Leftover and animals were weighed every morning before food distributions, and drinking water containing vitamin C was served ad libitum. According to the results, the highest ingestion was obtained with Panicum maximum. However, the digestibility different nutrients was comparable between treatments; nevertheless, males fed on P. maximum digested crude cellulose (63.78%) better than males fed on P. purpureum (51.17%). With regard to the variation of the bacterial rate of the caecal flora, enterobacteria of animals fed P. maximum was high (11.20 CFU/ml) compared to those of the animals receiving P. purpureum (7.27 CFU/ml), although regardless of the treatment, the level of lactobacilli was higher than that of enterobacteria. In view of the results obtained, these grasses can be alternatively used in feeding guinea pigs.
Impact of Feeding Strategies With Acid Suppression on Esophageal Reflexes in Human Neonates With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: A Single-Blinded Randomized Clinical Trial
Authors: Jadcherla Sudarshan R. , Hasenstab Kathryn A. , Gulati Ish K. , Helmick Roseanna , Ipek Haluk , Yildiz Vedat , Wei Lai
Published: November 2020

INTRODUCTION:

Aims were to test hypothesis that esophageal provocation-induced reflexes are superior with acid suppression plus feeding modifications vs acid suppression alone among infants treated for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

METHODS:

Infants (N = 49, 41.3 ± 2.6 of postmenstrual age) with acid reflux index >3% underwent longitudinal motility testing (weeks 0 and 5) with graded midesophageal provocation to test randomly allocated therapies (4 weeks' proton pump inhibitor [PPI] ± feeding modifications) on sensory-motor aerodigestive reflexes. Feeding modification included restricted fluid volume <140 mL/kg per day, fed over 30 minutes in right lateral position and supine postprandial position. Primary motility outcome was frequency-occurrence of peristaltic reflex. Secondary outcomes included upper esophageal sphincter contractile reflex, lower esophageal sphincter (LES) relaxation reflex, respiratory change, and symptom characteristics.

RESULTS:

Treatment groups did not differ for primary outcome (odds ratio = 0.8, 95% confidence interval 0.4–1.6, P = 0.99) or secondary outcomes (all P > 0.05). For both treatment groups at follow-up, distal esophageal contraction and LES tone decreased, and LES relaxation reflex occurrence is less frequent (all P < 0.05). In a subgroup analysis, comparing infants with PPI washout (N = 40) vs with continued (N = 9) PPI therapy, no differences were noted for aerodigestive reflex response frequency-occurrence (all P > 0.05).

DISCUSSION:

In infants with GERD, feeding modification with acid suppression is not superior to acid suppression alone in modifying aerodigestive reflexes (frequency, sensation, or magnitude). Contiguous areas targeted by GER, i.e., LES and distal esophageal functions, worsened at follow-up for both groups despite PPI therapy. Maturation is likely the key factor for GERD resolution in infants, justifying the use of placebo in clinical trials for objectively determined GERD.

Published: November 2020

The research examined the appropriateness of sugarcane straw ash (SSA) as a modifier in lime stabilized lateritic soil with a view of improving the Geotechnical considerations of the soil structures. Elementary and Geotechnical investigations were performed on the lime stabilized soil samples and also when varying percentages of SSA were introduced. The elementary tests incorporated the moisture content, specific gravity, molecule size examination, and Atterberg's limits, while the Geotechnical were: compaction, California Bearing Ratio (CBR), and unconfined compression test. The lateritic samples were stabilized with 7% optimum of lime by weight, while SSA contents were gradually introduced at optimum lime up to 12.5% bulk of the soil. The addition of the SSA to the lime stabilized lateritic soil diminished the plastic indices from 25.09 to 21.98%, 24.76 to 21.09% and 19.43 to 15.37%; increased the unsoaked CBR values from 6 to 12%, 6 to 10% and 8 to 10 % and the unconfined compressive strengths from 88.10 to 126.13 kPa, 73.8 to 114.1 kPa and 52.17 to 127.85 kPa for tests A, B and C respectively. Concluding, the expansion of sugarcane straw debris improved the Geotechnical considerations of the lime stabilized lateritic soil tests for structural works.
Post-Apartheid Criticism
Authors: Loukson Ives S.
Published: November 2020

South Africa's post-apartheid narrative is one of democracy and equality - but its flaws run deep, argues Ives S. Loukson. Disclosing prejudices about whiteness, homosexuality and democracy in the »staged society«, he claims the concept of relation as an adequate framework for the embodiment of »profane democracy« understood in Agambian terms. Its fluidity is equated to openness and transparency that are relevant dimensions for profane democracy. A demonstration of literary criticism practiced as a fecund interdisciplinary activity, Loukson's study lays the foundation for post-apartheid criticism different from post-colonial criticism.
Die umfassende Abhängigkeit des Subjekts
Authors: Lux Katharina
Published: November 2020

Der Aufsatz befragt die Narrative, in denen die Geschichte der deutschsprachigen autonomen Frauenbewegung der 1970er und 1980er Jahre und ihre feministische Theoriebildung erzählt werden. Anhand der Märchendeutungen der Kulturtheoretikerin Gerburg Treusch-Dieter geht er einer feministischen Subjektkritik nach, die Geschlecht nicht als Frage persönlicher Identität, sondern als Element des kulturellen Sinnhorizonts versteht und menschliche Abhängigkeit ins Zentrum feministischer Weltdeutung rückt.
Neue Wege der baukulturellen Bildung in der Denkmalpflege
Authors: Seifen Barbara
Published: November 2020

Barbara Seifen greift das Thema baukulturelle Bildung aus Sicht einer Architektin und Denkmalpflegerin auf. Die Grenzen zwischen Baukultur und Denkmalpflege sind fließend, der nachhaltige Umgang mit Substanz ist in der Denkmalpflege schon lange selbstverständlich und gewinnt auch im Themenbereich Baukultur zunehmend an Bedeutung. Das baukulturelle Erbe, die Baudenkmäler bieten vielfältige Möglichkeiten, um Geschichte, konkrete Ereignisse an der baulichen Substanz zu erläutern und damit besser verständlich werden zu lassen. Gesellschaftliche Veränderungen, Zuwanderung, Migration und Austausch sind am Baubestand und in städtebaulichen Zusammenhängen konkret ablesbar. Dies sind Anknüpfungspunkte für eine baukulturelle Bildung generationsübergreifend. Als fester Bestandteil eines Lehrprogramms an Schulen und in der Erwachsenenbildung sind Architektur, Denkmalpflege und Baukultur bisher aus Sicht der Autorin zu wenig etabliert. Hier ist Entwicklungspotential für die Aufgabe der Denkmalinstitutionen vorhanden.
Topik zwischen Modellierung und Operationalisierung
Authors: Hinzmann Maria
Published: November 2020

Reiseberichte, besonders über Indien, sind durchzogen von sich wiederholenden Argumentationsmustern und -strukturen. Sie bilden damit ein prädestiniertes Untersuchungskorpus für die Topik. Anhand von rund 40 Indienreiseberichten, die sich als Kreuzungspunkt diverser um 1900 virulenter Diskurse darstellen und bisher kaum erforscht sind, rekonstruiert und analysiert Maria Hinzmann etwa 150 Topoi. Aus der Perspektive einer kulturwissenschaftlich orientierten Literaturwissenschaft und mit Anleihen aus der Korpuslinguistik liefert sie eine bahnbrechende Neugrundlegung der Topik, deren transdisziplinäres Potential bis in die Digital Humanities reicht.
Archaeology and Videogames
Authors: Kelle Florian
Published: November 2020

Florian Kelle engages with videogames as hyperobjects from an archaeological perspective. Archaeogaming is a new field that intersects archaeology with game studies. New theoretical developments suggest to think big - beyond individual artifacts. This, in combination with a critical reassessment of the magic circle, gives way to applying these theoretical notions to our conception of videogames as digital artifacts that extend way beyond what meets the eye. Playfulness, rather than theories of play or traditional and established notions of »game«, can define much better describe what encompasses the digital artifact. By extending our thinking, we too extend the amount of artifacts that we can archaeologically assess and categorize through a lens of playfulness.
Kinderhandel oder Koranerziehung?
Authors: Fuchs Sarah
Published: November 2020

Über die Lebensbedingungen von Senegals bettelnden Koranschülern empören sich Kinderrechtsaktivisten weltweit. Ein genauer Blick zeigt jedoch, dass es um mehr geht als um Bettelerträge und Berufschancen. Auf dem Spiel stehen der Einfluss von Staat und Religion, internationale Interessen und konkurrierende Konzepte von Erziehung und Bildung. Sarah Fuchs analysiert in ihrer ethnografischen Studie die Deutungskämpfe, die Kinderrechtsaktivisten, Staat und religiöse Akteure in Senegal um die bettelnden Koranschüler austragen. Sie leistet damit einen innovativen Beitrag zu der Frage, wie transnational zirkulierende Diskurse und Praktiken mit lokalen Kontexten der Sinngebung und Bedeutungszuschreibung interagieren.

Was ist die Zukunft ländlicher Räume in einer urbanisierten Welt? Diese Frage wird in Politik, Medien und Wissenschaft kontrovers diskutiert. Eine kritische Landforschung kann hier einen wichtigen Beitrag leisten, indem sie Konflikte und Widersprüche, aber auch Utopien ländlicher Entwicklung thematisiert. Der Band gibt eine Einführung in wichtige Konzepte, Themen und politische Perspektiven der kritischen Landforschung. Ländliche Räume, so der zentrale Befund, sind keine »Restkategorie« jenseits von Großstädten, sondern ein wichtiger Ansatzpunkt für die Analyse und Transformation gesellschaftlicher Verhältnisse.
Wear Behavior of Ni-TiO2 Nano-Composite Coating on AISI 1022 CS by Pulse Electrodeposition
Authors: Natarajan P. , Jegan A. , Mohanraj M.
Published: November 2020

The Ni-TiO2 nano-coatings were prepared on the AISI 1022 carbon steel (CS) surface using the pulse electrodeposition method. The surface structure of CS was considerably reformed owing to the titanium particles presence. The electroplating is widely used as a protection of the material surface to expand the life of vehicle components. The parameters of pulse frequency (PF - Hz), current density (CD - A/cm2) and duty cycle (DC - %) are combined into the RSM three factors and three level arrays to find the effect of the wear rate coating parameters. The Ni-TiO2 nano-particles deposited surface structure and wear of the surface were examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and wear test was conducted by pin on disc wear tester. The experimental result revealed a lower specimen wear rate of the parameter is the frequency: 20 Hz, current density: 0.2 A/cm2 and duty cycle: 30 %. The ANOVA result revealed the pulse frequency and current density quadratic term are the most essential factor contributing 28.48, 29.95 % impact on wear resistance.

Authors: Cuevas-Rodríguez Edith Oliva , León-López Liliana , Escobar-Zúñiga Yudith , Milán-Carrillo Jorge , Domínguez-Arispuro Dulce María , Gutiérrez-Dorado Roberto
Published: November 2020

For rational use of moringa seeds and its anatomical fractions (kernel, shells, and wings), the objective of the present investigation was to analyze their chemical composition, antinutritional factors content, and antioxidant capacity. The seed kernel fraction represents 71.78% of the whole seed weight and possesses high contents of protein (32.19%) and lipids (38.72%), whereas seed shells and wings fractions are mainly composed of dietary fiber and carbohydrates. Phytate was the most abundant antinutritional factor detected in all fractions (604.0 mg PAE/100 g-1674.9 mg PAE/100 g), followed by total phenolics (218.5 mg GAE/100 g-386.9 mg GAE/100 g) and saponins (130.4 mg DE/100 g-197.4 mg DE/100 g). Moringa seeds fractions showed a high antioxidant capacity. The kernel fraction exerts the highest activity (15 251.90 μmol TE/100g), followed by shells (8 499.50 μmol TE/100g) and wings (5 878.90 μmol TE/100g). Moringa seed kernel fraction seems to be a promising source of protein. All anatomical seed fractions of moringa are a reservoir of dietary fiber and antioxidants.
Alternativas de resolución de conflictos desde una perspectiva holística en los entornos universitarios colombianos
Authors: Torres Osorio Edilsa
Published: November 2020

El conflicto en los entornos universitarios tiene dos estadios. El primero es interno —propio de todas las universidades, tanto públicas como privadas—, que discurre principalmente por las relaciones interpersonales, y cuando no se resuelve, queda latente por el temor a enfrentarlo. El otro conflicto es externo; se da en las universidades públicas a través de los grupos existentes en el claustro en relación con algunos entes externos. Se caracteriza por tener un conflicto estructural, aunque el nivel que se investiga es microsociológico, es decir, basado en conflictos internos. En este artículo se presenta la revisión del estado del arte (fuentes secundarias), cuyo objetivo consiste en identificar los conflictos internos que se presentan en las universidades públicas y privadas, qué figura o forma de resolución de conflictos emplean y qué método de resolución podría aplicarse en las instituciones de educación superior. Se concluye que hay ausencia de registro de investigaciones sobre el tema, por lo que es necesario explorar la naturaleza de los conflictos en las universidades y sus formas de resolución.
Evolución histórica de la auditoría ambiental en el siglo XXI. El caso cubano

Published: November 2020

A escala global, aprovechar las potencialidades energéticas que el ambiente aporta al hombre sigue siendo un reto para la comunidad científica. Los gobiernos implementan estrategias que fomentan el incremento de parques eólicos, el uso de celdas fotovoltaicas a través de paneles solares, e hidroeléctricas para la obtención de energía que aporta el agua, para el uso del consumo humano a través de la red eléctrica. Empero, para conseguir este fin, se hace indispensable, la publicación por parte de los Estados de cuerpos legales en los ordenamientos jurídicos que ofrezcan incentivos dirigidos a la producción de energía a partir del uso de las fuentes renovables, y el diseño de estrategias de desarrollo con el uso de los avances científicos para modificar la matriz energética, no solo a nivel regional, sino a nivel nacional, de manera que sea creciente su aporte a para lograr una matriz energética sostenible en consonancia con los Objetivos del Milenio para el 2030.
Nuevos datos acerca de las follas de entremeses del Siglo de Oro
Authors: Roldán Fidalgo Cristina
Published: November 2020

La denominada folla de entremeses es uno de los espectáculos teatrales más desconocidos del Siglo de Oro. Esto se debe en buena medida a la poca atención que le ha prestado la historiografía, y derivado de ello, a la aparente escasez de fuentes documentales que den noticia de en qué consistían y cómo, cuándo y dónde se representaban. En el presente trabajo se documentan puestas en escena de follas de entremeses hasta ahora desconocidas, que se representaron ante los monarcas en el Real Alcázar y en el Buen Retiro. Con ello se pretende un mayor conocimiento sobre este espectáculo.

Discourse on the Value of the Humanities in Lithuania: for the Sake of This Land, or for the People’s Well-Being?
Authors: Kirtiklis Kęstas
Published: November 2020

The present paper deals with the polemics concerning the importance of the humanities in Lithua­nia. The arguments provided by the critics – natural scientists, politicians, businessmen, and general public opinion – are reconstructed from the humanities perspective, i.e. from the texts where humanitarians try to respond to them. The arguments for the value of the humanities, formed by prominent scholars Darius Kuolys, Alvydas Jokubaitis, and Viktorija Daujotytė are also presented. The paper argues that this debate is essentially a clash of two axiological positions. The critics of the humanities occupy the position of axiological collec­tivism and claim that the humanities must provide a measurable impact on human communities – a nation, society, or business corporation. Humanitarians, in their turn, adopt the perspective of axiological holism and argue the value of the humanities for the nation or the state as entities exceeding the sum of their parts. The paper suggests that the turn toward axiological individualism might be a way to escape the deadlock that these polemics have reached. The title of this article paraphrases two lines of the Lithuanian National Anthem.
“We Don’t Harm the Environment”: Defensive Regimes of the Humanities in the Administrative Discourse of Academia
Authors: Gedutis Aldis
Published: November 2020

For the last decade, the humanities are globally pronounced as stranded in a crisis or at least touched by it. In the times of crisis the apologetic discourse is more important and visible than in the times of relative peace and prosperity. Comparing to the Anglo-Saxon humanities, the rhetoric of crisis is not very popular among the representatives of Lithuanian humanities. The article reconstructs the main arguments and defensive regimes used by scholars during experimental discussions on the value of the humanities in Lithuania. The empirical data consists of four discussions (conducted in 2017–2018). The aim of the article is to analyse this argumentation and to compare it to the global discourse on the value of the humanities.

Procesos de configuración territorial y conflictos por el agua en el municipio de Pasto, Colombia
Authors: Perugache Salas Jorge Andrés
Published: November 2020

El propósito de este artículo, es analizar los conflictos sociales, políticos y ambientales por el acceso y distribución del agua en los andes suroccidentales de Colombia, específicamente en el municipio de Pasto. A partir del análisis de dos momentos históricos y haciendo uso de una perspectiva etnográfica, muestra cómo las élites políticas y económicas en el municipio, han tenido una posición hegemónica en la definición de los derechos para el acceso al agua, favoreciendo la acumulación y flujo de capital, excluyendo formas de apropiación, uso y distribución del líquido que responden a intereses colectivos, relacionados a la defensa de la autonomía territorial y la legitimación de identidades comunitarias. Esto ha confluido en escenarios de tensiones, que han involucrado pobladores rurales y urbanos, instituciones estatales, gremios económicos y productivos, entre otros.

Published: November 2020

El modelo de conservación de la biodiversidad en México, enfrenta constantemente el desafío de trabajar con la población que habita en las zonas de amortiguamiento de las áreas naturales protegidas (ANP). Tal es el caso de la Reserva de la Biósfera Selva el Ocote en el estado de Chiapas, donde a través de una investigación cualitativa, se identifican las tensiones y retos para la administración del ANP, frente a un esquema de gobernanza ambiental, que pudiese abonar a la construcción de balances de poder, entre distintos actores sociales vinculados con el propósito de la conservación, atendiendo a las dimensiones sociales y ambientales de la sustentabilidad.
Política y prácticas en torno a la Conservación Ambiental. El caso del Parque Nacional Cofre de Perote, Veracruz, México
Authors: Vallejo Román Janett
Published: November 2020

El concepto de conservación, ha sido central en el desarrollo e instrumentación de marcos jurídicos y operativos en materia ambiental, también ha sido un elemento que ha jugado un doble papel -potenciado o limitando- en la participación social en áreas de conservación ambiental. La investigación, se realizó a partir de entrevistas semiestructuradas y observación participante, logrando obtener información sobre las dificultades para lograr acuerdos e instrumentar programas de orden ambiental. Teniendo como referente un área de conservación, se concluye que existe una contraposición discursiva y práctica entre quienes designan, planean, organizan y toman el control frente a quienes habitan dentro del área natural protegida y requieren cumplir con la norma, generando tensiones, conflictos y disputas por el uso de los recursos naturales.

Authors: J Tetsch , L Spilker , S Mohrhardt , H Terheyden
Published: November 2020

Ageneses exhibit a prevalence of 5.5% and are thus one of the most common congenital anomalies encountered in humans. The incidence of aplasia is often only diagnosed coincidentally in the mixed dentition unless accompanied by additional syndromal ectodermal anomalies phenotypical with the aplasia. In cases of solitary agenesis, it is frequently the second tooth of a group which is affected. Treatment planning and initiation should be carried out at an early stage and interdisciplinary whereby asymmetrical and multiple ageneses are highly complex and involve prosthetic restoration, jaw relationship, functioning and aesthetics. The treatment options for solitary and symmetrical ageneses appear considerably more straight forward and variable.
Root Topographic Study on Molars with Furcation Involvements in Taiwanese Adults: A Risk Analysis of Furcation Entrance Dimension and Root Trunk Length
Authors: GL Hou
Published: November 2020

The present study was to investigate the Topography of Root Trunk type (RTT) and Furcation Entrance Dimension (FED) on extracted molars affected with advanced periodontitis and furcation involvement (FI). A total 169 extracted maxillary and mandibular molars (165 patients) affected with severely advanced periodontal destruction. The RTT was categorized as A, B, C, and the FED was clarified into subclass -1, -2, and -3, respectively. Results showed that the prevalence of mandibular second molars with RTT-C and FED-1 occurs higher; (33.0%), and the relationship between RTT and FED is significance (p<0.005). In addition, the relationship between RTT-C and FED-1 also shows a statistical significance (p<0.01) on the buccal surface (41.5%) of the mandibular second molar.

Authors:   Department of Veterinary Surgery and Diagnostic Imaging, School of Veterinary Medicine, Wolaita Sodo University, P. O. Box 138, Wolaita Sodo, Ethiopia, Fesseha Haben
Published: November 2020

Tail docking is usually performed on those dogs whose tail or associated structures have been injured. A two-year-old male dog was presented Veterinary Teaching Hospital (VTH) with complain of injury on the tail due to bite by another dog. The injured site of the tail was contaminated with the debris on presentation and the dog was in severe pain. Amputation of the tail at the level above the injury site of the tail was taken. Care for surgery, oxytetracycline wound spray was applied on the incision site of the tail; Pen Strep and Meloxicam were given for three-days. The suture material was removed 10th-day post-surgery and the tail stump healed uneventfully. Hence, tail amputation is the best option of treatment for severing traumatic tail and successful management of the injured tail was presented in the present case report.

The calf has unevenly recovered on the 20th-day post-operation. The present case report discusses the successful management of umbilical hernia in the calf.
Identification of organic pollutants in city atmospheres
Authors: Louw C.W , Richards J.F
Published: November 2020

A suitable gas chromatophic analytical technique is described for the characterization of organic components in air samples from traffic dense areas. The method employs a chromosorb 102 cold trap to collect and concetrate samples and a 30 metre SCOT DC 550 Silocone column for separating the components. Chromatograms yielding about 150 peaks have been obtained which are superior to those reported in the literature. Tentative identification could be made or paraffinic, cycloparaffinic olefinic, acetylenic and aromatic hydrocarbons in the C1 to C13 range, using a standard addition method
MESOSCALE NUMERICAL MODELS: COST-EFFECTIVE INPUT TO DISPERSION PREDICTION SCHEMES
Authors: Jury M.R. , Wilczak J.M.
Published: November 2020

Dispersion schemes which utilise on-line transport weather data are in increasing use, to predict the concentration distribution of pollutants near an industrial source. In many cases, sharp transitions in plume transport and spread can occur downstream from the source owing to changes in wind directions and mixing properties. These may be observed using costly remote stations or estimated using a mesoscale numerical model. A two dimensional mixed layer numerical model is described and tested for a land-seabreeze scenario in the Cape Town area. Comparisons with previous observational are made. It is suggested that these numerical models be used to interpolate meteorological observations form the source, to the wider area influenced by industrial emissions.
DETERMINATION OF HEALTH IMPACTS IN URBAN REGIONS EXPOSED TO ATMOSPHERIC POLLUTANTS
Authors: Jury M.R.
Published: November 2020

A simple method for relating urban health responses to ambient air pollution levels is outlined. The methhod requires daily values of concentrations for the most common atmospheric irritant and respiratory complaint statistics from an adjacent medical clinic. The data need to be quality controlled and of sufficient length to be statistically screened using various thresholds. The method is limited in scope, so historical evidence is needed to guide the survey to the relevant time of year and most exposed place. In the example given for Richards Bay - South Africa, health responses achieve maximum variance (27.4%) with respect to peak values of S02 on (he same cdy over a 40 day period in the winter of 1998. The correlation function for various thresholds indicates that 30 ppb is a critical heallh sensitivity level. The economic implications are computed and interpretations address how the results can be used 10 modify town planning efforts.
