THE POWER OF ACCESSIBILITY TO LAND PRICE IN SEMARANG URBAN CORRIDORS, INDONESIA
Authors: Rakhmatulloh Anita Ratnasari , Buchori Imam , Pradoto Wisnu , Riyanto Bambang
Published: July 2018

Urban land demand tends to keep increasing as a result of economic and population growths. The high intensity of activity will bring changes to land value. The corridors of Semarang - Ungaran and Semarang - Mranggen have significant differences in land values despite being at relatively the same distance to city centre. Similarly, the rate of land price change in these two corridors are also different. The study aims to examine and prove the effect of distance to city centre toward land price in downtown areas by employing statistical correlation analysis and accessibility calculation. The result reveals that distance to city centre has no longer effect land prices. It was found that the farther from the city centre the land prices decreases gradually but increases at road nodes that connect to the trip generation points such as toll road gate, residential area and commercial area or shopping centre.
KEY ISSUES IN THE MANAGEMENT OF THE HUMANITARIAN AID DISTRIBUTION PROCESS DURING AND POST-DISASTER IN MALAYSIA
Authors: Mohd Suzila , Fathi Mohamad Syazli , Harun Aizul Nahar , Omar Chong Noraini
Published: July 2018

The humanitarian aid distribution process is a broad activity for helping disaster victims at the right time, with the right needs and at the right place during a disaster. However, there are always issues that could interfere with the humanitarian aid distribution process such as cases of food redundancy, uneven distribution of food supply to disaster victims, food insecurity issues, and volunteers’ redundancy during and post disasters. These issues prove that there are weaknesses in managing the humanitarian aid distribution process within disaster management teams. Generally, these issues should be taken care of when the disaster management team was formed either from government agencies or non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Both work as the supporting team in giving aids and helping the disaster victims. Therefore, this research reviews the key issues in the humanitarian aid distribution process in Malaysian disaster management. Key findings show that there is no standard operating procedure (SOP) to explain the roles and responsibilities of NGOs that can be used by Government agencies to coordinate NGO contributions to a supporting team. There are five (5) categories of issues that can have a negative impact on the humanitarian aid distribution process and the disaster victims. The issues are information, communication, collaboration, cooperation, and coordination. All disaster management teams should emphasize these issues as they affect effectiveness in dealing with the humanitarian aid distribution process.
MEDIATION EFFECT OF SOCIAL ASPECT IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL AND ECONOMIC ASPECTS: THEIR INFLUENCE ON THE VALUE OF GREEN COMMERCIAL OFFICE PROPERTY
Authors: Jasimin Tuti Haryati
Published: July 2018

The potential value of green buildings is generally attributed to attractiveness for occupiers due to the environmental aspect which brings an impact to the social action, which eventually influences the economic aspect. These three aspects of sustainability (environment, social and economic), which adopted from Concentric Ring model contained various attributes. These attributes may or may not have significant influence among them, thus act as an indicator in impacting the green commercial office building’s value. Accordingly, it is substantial to identify which attributes of green commercial office property have significant relationship of sustainability and to what level of influence among them, including the role of social aspect as a mediator between environment and economic aspects of sustainability. In order to analyse the hypothesized relationships, this study collects quantitative data from the property holders and also end users (tenants and owner-users) of green commercial office building, as they experience the benefits of sustainability in the building. Data were analysed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with IBM SPSS Statistics 20.0 and AMOS 19.0, respectively. The results show that all hypothesized relationships between environmental, social and economic aspects were supported and indicated significant relationships among them, hence become a fundamental of green commercial office property valuation framework development.

Published: July 2018

Quality of life (QOL) is both individual and collective attributes. Quality of life should encompass both objective and subjective measures whilst promoting for balance in every aspect of human existence. The objective of this study is to assess the QOL of the population in Malaysia by using Selangor as a case study. 600 samples from four districts in Selangor were selected through random sampling method. From literature review, 9 main components of QOL were identified and included in questionnaire form. Relative importance index (RII) equation was then used to report on the analysis of QOL components. Results from the survey indicated that majority of the respondents were likely to perceive QOL components as moderate and highly satisfied. Overall, respondents claimed that they were satisfied and enjoying their lives and at the same time satisfied with their current quality of life. The results indirectly show that each of QOL component was interrelated with each other in creating the satisfaction on quality of life of the people. This is in line with the findings on the three basic human relationships with Allah SWT, with other human and with nature in protecting their faith (din), human self (nafs), intellect ('aql), posterity (nasl) and wealth (mal) through establishing justice, eliminating prejudice and alleviating hardship by promoting good and preventing harm to self and others.

Authors: Larsen Lars Bruun , Sondergaard Jens , Thomsen Janus Laust , Halling Anders , Sønderlund Anders Larrabee , Christensen Jeanette Reffstrup , Thilsing Trine
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

During recent years, stepwise approaches to health checks have been advanced as an alternative to general health checks. In 2013, we set up the Early Detection and Prevention project (Tidlig Opsporing og Forebyggelse, TOF) to develop a stepwise approach aimed at patients at high or moderate risk of a chronic disease. A novel feature was the use of a personal digital mailbox for recruiting participants. A personal digital mailbox is a secure digital mailbox provided by the Danish public authorities. Apart from being both safe and secure, it is a low-cost, quick, and easy way to reach Danish residents.

OBJECTIVE

In this study we analyze the association between the rates of acceptance of 2 digital invitations sent to a personal digital mailbox and the sociodemographic determinants, medical treatment, and health care usage in a stepwise primary care model for the prevention of chronic diseases.

METHODS

We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the rates of acceptance of 2 digital invitations sent to randomly selected residents born between 1957 and 1986 and residing in 2 Danish municipalities. The outcome was acceptance of the 2 digital invitations. Statistical associations were determined by Poisson regression. Data-driven chi-square automatic interaction detection method was used to generate a decision tree analysis, predicting acceptance of the digital invitations.

RESULTS

A total of 8814 patients received an invitation in their digital mailbox from 47 general practitioners. A total of 40.22% (3545/8814) accepted the first digital invitation, and 30.19 % (2661/8814) accepted both digital invitations. The rates of acceptance of both digital invitations were higher among women, older patients, patients of higher socioeconomic status, and patients not diagnosed with or being treated for diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or cardiovascular disease.

CONCLUSIONS

To our knowledge, this is the first study to report on the rates of acceptance of digital invitations to participate in a stepwise model for prevention of chronic diseases. More studies of digital invitations are needed to determine if the acceptance rates seen in this study should be expected from future studies as well. Similarly, more research is needed to determine whether a multimodal recruitment approach, including digital invitations to personal digital mailboxes will reach hard-to-reach subpopulations more effectively than digital invitations only.
Use of In-Game Rewards to Motivate Daily Self-Report Compliance: Randomized Controlled Trial (Preprint)
Authors: Taylor Sara , Ferguson Craig , Peng Fengjiao , Schoeneich Magdalena , Picard Rosalind W
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

Encouraging individuals to report daily information such as unpleasant disease symptoms, daily activities and behaviors, or aspects of their physical and emotional state is difficult but necessary for many studies and clinical trials that rely on patient-reported data as primary outcomes. Use of paper diaries is the traditional method of completing daily diaries, but digital surveys are becoming the new standard because of their increased compliance; however, they still fall short of desired compliance levels.

OBJECTIVE

Mobile games using in-game rewards offer the opportunity to increase compliance above the rates of digital diaries and paper diaries. We conducted a 5-week randomized control trial to compare the completion rates of a daily diary across 3 conditions: a paper-based participant-reported outcome diary (Paper PRO), an electronic-based participant-reported outcome diary (ePRO), and a novel ePRO diary with in-game rewards (Game-Motivated ePRO).

METHODS

We developed a novel mobile game that is a combination of the idle and pet collection genres to reward individuals who complete a daily diary with an in-game reward. Overall, 197 individuals aged 6 to 24 years (male: 100 and female: 97) were enrolled in a 5-week study after being randomized into 1 of the 3 methods of daily diary completion. Moreover, 157 participants (male: 84 and female: 69) completed at least one diary and were subsequently included in analysis of compliance rates.

RESULTS

We observed a significant difference (F2,124=6.341; P=.002) in compliance to filling out daily diaries, with the Game-Motivated ePRO group having the highest compliance (mean completion 86.4%, SD 19.6%), followed by the ePRO group (mean completion 77.7%, SD 24.1%), and finally, the Paper PRO group (mean completion 70.6%, SD 23.4%). The Game-Motivated ePRO (P=.002) significantly improved compliance rates above the Paper PRO. In addition, the Game-Motivated ePRO resulted in higher compliance rates than the rates of ePRO alone (P=.09). Equally important, even though we observed significant differences in completion of daily diaries between groups, we did not observe any statistically significant differences in association between the responses to a daily mood question and study group, the average diary completion time (P=.52), or the System Usability Scale score (P=.88).

CONCLUSIONS

The Game-Motivated ePRO system encouraged individuals to complete the daily diaries above the compliance rates of the Paper PRO and ePRO without altering the participants’ responses.

Published: July 2018

Background and objectives

Despite guidelines recommending shared decision making, nephrologists vary significantly in their approaches to discussing conservative management for kidney replacement therapy with older patients. Many older patients do not perceive dialysis initiation as a choice or receive sufficient information about conservative management for reasons incompletely understood. We examined how nephrologists’ perceptions of key outcomes and successful versus failed treatment discussions shape their approach and characterized different models of decision making, patient engagement, and conservative management discussion.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

Our qualitative study used semistructured interviews with a sample of purposively sampled nephrologists. Interviews were conducted from June 2016 to May 2017 and continued until thematic saturation. Data were analyzed using typological and thematic analyses.

Results

Among 35 nephrologists from 18 practices, 20% were women, 66% had at least 10 years of nephrology experience, and 80% were from academic medical centers. Four distinct approaches to decision making emerged: paternalist, informative (patient led), interpretive (navigator), and institutionalist. Five themes characterized differences between these approaches, including patient autonomy, engagement and deliberation (disclosing all options, presenting options neutrally, eliciting patient values, and offering explicit treatment recommendation), influence of institutional norms, importance of clinical outcomes (e.g., survival and dialysis initiation), and physician role (educating patients, making decisions, pursuing active therapies, and managing symptoms). Paternalists and institutionalists viewed initiation of dialysis as a measure of success, whereas interpretive and informative nephrologists focused on patient engagement, quality of life, and aligning patient values with treatment. In this sample, only one third of providers presented conservative management to patients, all of whom followed either informative or interpretive approaches. The interpretive model best achieved shared decision making.

Conclusions

Differences in nephrologists’ perceptions of their role, patient autonomy, and successful versus unsuccessful encounters contribute to variation in decision making for patients with kidney disease.
Aspectos ideologizantes de las familias representadas en los largometrajes dominicanos: Nueba Yol 1 (1995) y Yuniol 2 (2007)
Authors: Roa Ogando Gerardo A.
Published: July 2018

En este artículo analizo la representación del rol de la familia en las películas dominicanas Nueba Yol 1, por fin llegó Balbuena (1995), de Ángel Muñiz, y Yuniol 2 (2007), de Alfonso Rodríguez. Parto de los postulados teóricos del sociólogo francés Louis Althusser (1974), quien incluye la familia dentro de los aparatos ideológicos de Estado, ya que en esta se construye la identidad de los hombres y las mujeres mediante un discurso ideologizante expresado a través de intercambios verbales y no verbales. La metodología aplicada es hermenéutica-triangular. Participaron tres grupos controles compuestos, respectivamente, por sociólogos, cineastas y estudiantes de cine. Concluyo afirmando que en la primera película se representa un aparato ideológico débil, carente de discurso familiar. Esta es una característica muy común en algunas familias de inmigrantes en los Estados Unidos de América, cuyos padres dedican casi todo su tiempo al trabajo, delegando su responsabilidad a los ciberamigos, a la televisión, a sus profesores y a los compañeros de aula. En la segunda película los aspectos discursivos de ideología familiar son más evidentes. En ambas producciones se representan las familias para desarrollar una trama de denuncia social, por lo que estas fílmicas pueden resultar idóneas para potenciar la reflexión entre los miembros de la familia posmoderna.

Published: July 2018

Translation has important role to the development of science field, especially in accounting field which has been expanding in this globalization era. Hence, it is very interesting to analyze the translation of English accounting terms into Indonesian because it contains many accounting typical terms and specific vocabulary usually used by accountant. Furthermore, this research focuses on identifying of accounting terms in English accounting book and their equivalences in Indonesian. The data was collected by note taking and comparing techniques. Then, the data analysis is performed to search the form and category of the English accounting terms. Parallel corpora were used in presenting source language and target language data. Descriptive qualitative methods were applied to analyze all research problems. The theory of translation techniques proposed by Molina and Albir (2002) was applied in order to find translation techniques chosen by translator in translating English accounting terms and the theory of grammatical proposed by Quirk et al (1985) to find the categories of word, compound word and phrase. This research is expected to contribute to further research related to accounting vocabularies consist of a set of words, compound words and phrase which are considered available in all languages of the world.

The paper provides a series of responses to the papers published in Vol. 37, No. 3, of this journal that explored the ideas in Harald Wohlrapp’s The Concept of Argument (2014), where arguing is understood as the theoretical or theory-forming activity that can be found in research of all kinds. Thus, the approach taken focuses on the validity of theses. This approach is clarified further as the author considers points raised by his commentators and provides answers and, where necessary, corrections.
Donald Trump as a Critical-Thinking Teaching Assistant
Authors: Sullivan Stephen
Published: July 2018

Donald Trump has been a godsend for those of us who teach critical thinking. For he is a fount of manipulative rhetoric, glaring fallacies, conspiracy theories, fake news, and bullshit. In this paper I draw on my own recent teaching experience in order to discuss both the usefulness and the limits of using Trump examples in teaching critical thinking. In Section One I give the framework of the course; in Section Two I indicate Trump’s relevance to many important concepts in the course; and in Section Three I argue that critical thinking instructors should restrain themselves from overreliance on Trump-examples.

Visualizing Cancer: A Transdisciplinary Art and Biology Collaborative
Authors: McComb Camilla , Otto Gretchen , Omans Deborah , Garvey Jennifer , Smaldino Philip J
Published: July 2018

It would be safe to say that nearly every student enrolled in college knows someone who has been impacted by cancer. After all, cancer killed nearly 8.2 million people worldwide in 2012 (World Cancer Report, 2014). Using this fact as the impetus for change we decided to make cancer the focus of a “transdisciplinary” (Marshall, 2014) collaborative effort to simulate a reciprocal-learning experience between undergraduate biology and visual art students attending a university in Southeastern Michigan. The goal of the 2015 project was to create an active and authentic collaboration utilizing the university visual art and biology curricula. By engaging and connecting scientific and artistic critical thinking processes, we wanted to know: Could we design a class structure that would enable collaborative teams of art and biology students to create a visual model that represents a hallmark of cancer designed so that the model could also stand alone on artistic merit? In other words, could cancer visualization be transformed into works worthy of gallery display while maintaining scientific accuracy? In this paper we discuss the planning, implementation, results, and impact this work has had upon the way we now envision transdisciplinary collaboration.
Emotionality and STEAM Integrations in Teacher Education
Authors: Steele Astrid , Ashworth Elizabeth L.
Published: July 2018

The authors consider STEM and STEAM education initiatives as forms of integrated teaching and learning. With evidence from education research and the neurosciences, a case is made for the inherent connections between emotion and learning as essential to STEAM pedagogy. In this article, the authors’ ArtScience integration project for teacher candidates (TCs) is described, and elicits the following questions: do teacher candidates (TCs) exhibit emotions directly related to the ArtScience integration project? If so, what are those emotions? How do those emotions connect with the TCs’ perceptions of integration? Anecdotal evidence and collected data in the form of reflection papers are analyzed and discussed. The authors suggest that STEAM integrations take into account the importance of emotion in multidisciplinary teaching and learning.
This is not a Pipe: Incorporating Art in the Science Curriculum
Authors: Lima Jailson , Timm-Bottos Janis
Published: July 2018

Science courses employ instructional strategies that are based on lecture, drill, and practice to help students memorize collections of facts and procedures of increasing complexity. These strategies emphasize the acquisition of knowledge through the development of logical-mathematical skills employed in problem solving and verbal-linguistic abilities to make sense of the concepts and jargon in the field. Due to its highly abstract character, these science courses deal with complex representations that require an understanding of the role of mental models. Learners need to develop their visual-spatial skills as a means of gradually acquiring visual literacy while grappling with the symbols and conventions displayed in the figures, diagrams, and charts in textbooks. The Art & Science Project started at Vanier College as part of the History of Science course in the liberal arts program and was later adapted for use in three core chemistry courses (General, Solution, and Organic Chemistry) in the science program. The project uses a cross-disciplinary integration between visual arts and the natural sciences to promote a deeper understanding of the role of models. The liberal arts students analyze the parallels between the evolution of modern scientific concepts and the art movements from the same historical periods. Science students create visual representations that portray core ideas and threshold concepts in the field. The goal is to portray these abstractions using visual arts as means of creating meaning through symbolic visual representations while developing new perceptions of visual forms.
The Bonds of Freedom: Heidegger and Hochschild on Affective Life and Affective Labour
Authors: ROBERTSON KAREN
Published: July 2018

The purpose of this paper is three-fold: first, to argue that Martin Heidegger’s account of Dasein’s state-of-mind (Befindlichkeit) has implications for a Heideggarian understanding of social atmosphere or “mood,” itself understood as the domain in which we realize our meaningful attachment to the world; second, to link Heidegger’s account of Dasein  to sociologist Arlie Hochschild’s analysis of affective labour in order to underscore Hochschild’s critique of affective labour by showing it to occur at the very site of our free and meaningful involvement in the world; third, to demonstrate the relevance of Heidegger’s analysis to concrete sociological analysis. I begin by arguing that Heidegger’s existential account of affective life reveals affective life as: (a) an accomplished attachment to worldly specificities, (b) grounded on socially constituted significance, and (c) our responsibility. Second, showing Hochschild’s account of emotions to be compatible with Heidegger’s work, I consider Hochschild’s analysis of airline stewardesses, clarifying how the affective lives of individuals and the shared, public dimension of affective life are both undermined by affective labour, specifically in terms of the way that communicative interactions are manipulated in commercial settings. Resulting from the manipulation of affective life by companies are various challenges to our freedom: an inability to find meaningful projects; a lack of substantial measures in terms of which to choose our projects; and the inability to recognize such choices as constitutive of affective life and as our responsibility. Connecting these consequences to the three aspects of affective life noted above, it is concluded that affective labour threatens the inherently social character of freedom and also suppresses and inhibits the existential involvement in the world through which we realize meaningfully our freedom.
As If: Connecting Phenomenology, Mirror Neurons, Empathy, and Laughter
Authors: KRAMER CHRIS A.
Published: July 2018

The discovery of mirror neurons in both primates and humans has led to an enormous amount of research and speculation as to how conscious beings are able to interact so effortlessly among one another. Mirror neurons might provide an embodied basis for passive synthesis and the eventual process of further communalization through empathy, as envisioned by Edmund Husserl. I consider the possibility of a phenomenological and scientific investigation of laughter as a point of connection that might in the future bridge the gap Husserl feared had grown too expansive between the worlds of science and philosophy. Part I will describe some implications of the discovery of mirror neurons. Part II will address Husserl’s concept of embodiment as it relates to neuroscience and empathy. Part III will be a primer to investigating laughter phenomenologically. Part IV will be a continuation of the study of laughter and empathy as possible elements helpful in broadening the scope of what Husserl calls the Life-World.
Le rôle des affects : absurde et inquiétude chez Albert Camus et Jacques Lavigne
Authors: DEVETTE PASCALE
Published: July 2018

L’absurdité du monde et l’inquiétude face au sens de l’existence semblent être des affects négatifs. Par un dialogue entre Albert Camus et Jacques Lavigne, nous tenterons d’explorer le caractère créatif de ces affects. Camus et Lavigne partent d’une critique du matérialisme et de l’idéalisme afin d’ancrer leur théorie dans l’existence, en pensant conjointement les idées et la matérialité. Ils découvrent le rôle précieux de l’absurde et de l’inquiétude. Ces affects agissent comme vecteurs de l’action humaine et permettent d’initier le sujet à la solidarité. Néanmoins, la société est organisée de telle manière que le sujet doit constamment s’opposer à la possibilité d’une neutralisation de ses affects. En ce sens, rester inquiet et conscient de l’absurdité de l’existence appelle une résistance du sujet.
THE INACCESSIBILITY OF JUSTICE FOR MIGRANT WORKERS: A CAPABILITIES-BASED PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Hastie Bethany
Published: July 2018

This article examines the barriers migrant workers face in accessing justice, including the ability to assert legal rights in the workplace, and to access mechanisms for legal redress or remedy. Drawing on empirical research, and using the capabilities approach as a conceptual framework through which to examine these issues, this article demonstrates that the regulatory structure of the Temporary Foreign Worker Programs operates to actively constrain the ability for migrant workers to assert their rights in the workplace, and seek effective legal remedies in the face of rights violations.
PRIORITIZING CHILDREN’S BEST INTERESTS IN CANADIAN YOUTH JUSTICE: ARTICLE 3 OF THE UN CONVENTION ON THE RIGHTS OF THE CHILD AND CHILD-FRIENDLY ALTERNATIVES
Authors: Lacombe Étienne F
Published: July 2018

The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child confers on children a number of rights, not the least of which is the guarantee that their best interests shall be a primary consideration in all actions that concern them. This article applies the Best Interests of the Child [BIC] principle—a widespread concept in family law—to the context of criminal policy. It calls for a rebalancing of Canadian youth justice so as to prioritize children’s best interests. As marginalized societal actors, children are at risk of seeing their interests increasingly overlooked if they are not brought to the fore.

     Once a defining feature of Canada’s response to juvenile delinquency, the BIC principle has waned in the face of sweeping penal populism. Examples from Scotland, Scandinavia and Washington reveal means by which child-friendly justice systems can withstand the influence of punitive public sentiment. Mirroring such approaches in Canada would require repurposing the deeply engrained concept of proportionality and viewing children’s interests as inherent to advancing public safety.
Calvinball: Users’ Rights, Public Choice Theory and Rules Mutable Games
Authors: Tarantino Bob
Published: July 2018

This article proposes the “rules mutable game” as a metaphor for understanding the operation of copyright reform. Using the game of Calvinball (created by artist Bill Watterson in his long-running comic strip Calvin & Hobbes) as an illustrative device, and drawing on public choice theory’s account of how political change is effected by privileged interests, the article explores how the notion of a game in which players can modify the rules of the game while it is being played accounts for how users are often disadvantaged in copyright reform processes. The game metaphor also introduces a normative metric of fairness into the heart of the assessment of the copyright reform process from the standpoint of the user. The notion of a rules mutable game tells us something important about the kinds of stories we should be telling about copyright and copyright reform. The narrative power of the “fair play” norm embedded in the concept of the game can facilitate rhetoric which does not just doom users to dwell on their political losses, but empowers them to strategize for future victories.
The Natural Right To Parody: Assessing The (Potential) Parody/Satire Dichotomies In American And Canadian Copyright Laws
Authors: Lai Amy
Published: July 2018

This paper argues that the right to expressing oneself through parodies should constitute part of the core freedom of expression of a normative copyright regime. By drawing upon natural law legal theories, the paper proposes a legal definition of parody that would help to bring the copyright jurisprudence of a jurisdiction more in line with its free speech tradition. It argues that a broad parody definition, one that encompasses a great variety of expressive works but would not compete with the original and its derivatives in the market, is preferable to a narrow one. The paper then explains why the parody defence in American law and the parody exception in the Canadian copyright statute should follow the proposed parody definition, which would properly balance the rights of copyright owners with those of users.
Adolescência e ritos de passagem: a partir de uma perspectiva do Ensino Confirmatório e Confirmação
Authors: Streck Gisela Isolde Waechter , Malacarne Ivan Kiper
Published: July 2018

O artigo apresenta uma reflexão sobre os ritos de passagem em uma comunidade religiosa, mais especificamente numa comunidade urbana da Igreja Evangélica de Confissão Luterana no Brasil – IECLB – e quer ver em que medida estes ritos podem auxiliar adolescentes a fazerem a transição da infância para a vida adulta. A compreensão dos ritos de passagem como ritos de separação, de margem e de agregação será o referencial para refletir as possibilidades de adolescentes serem acompanhados/as e orientados/as nesta “travessia”, também em comunidades religiosas, partindo de um estudo de caso numa comunidade de denominação luterana em um centro urbano. Nos dias de hoje – qual é o lugar dos ritos? Qual a importância que se dá aos ritos de passagem, mais especificamente ao Ensino Confirmatório e Confirmação em comunidades luteranas da IECLB? Estes ritos ainda são valorizados pela família e pela comunidade? Na realidade de hoje os ritos de passagem tradicionalmente oferecidos para o público adolescente em comunidades religiosas ainda fazem sentido? Em que medida famílias e lideranças comunitárias (presbitério, ministros e ministras) têm noção do significado que estes ritos de passagem podem ter na vida de adolescentes?
Percepções acerca do “refugo humano” de Sygmunt Bauman e o “homo sacer” de Giorgio Agamben

Published: July 2018

Esta abordagem acentua elementos relacionados aos processos de subjetivação na contemporaneidade. Parte-se do principio de que a convivência humana encontra-se impregnada por dispositivos que, para além de ordenar a rotina da vida social, formatam a vida individual, qualificando-a. Nossa investigação acentua possíveis aproximações teóricas entre os trabalhos de Sygmunt Bauman e Giorgio Agamben em uma tentativa de construir ferramentas analíticas para compreender as demandas e articulações da sociedade de consumo. O objetivo será o de elaborar a articulação entre os conceitos de refugo humano, homo sacer e vida nua com vistas a possíveis caminhos de emancipação.
Culto e espiritualidade pentecostal: uma experiência de fascinação
Authors: Rosa André Luís da , Santos Júnior Paulo Jonas dos
Published: July 2018

O presente artigo fará uma breve análise do culto e da espiritualidade pentecostal tendo como referencial teórico a obra O Sagrado, de Rudolf Otto, especialmente o conceito de fascinação, pois, compreendemos que é neste aspecto da experiência do sagrado para Otto que se enquadra, principalmente, a experiência religiosa do pentecostalismo. Para tanto, no primeiro momento, se apresentará a questão da experiência na espiritualidade pentecostal e sua intenção originária. Na sequência, se analisará a vivência da espiritualidade pentecostal organizada no culto. E, por fim, se apontará brevemente alguns desdobramentos históricos da experiência religiosa no pentecostalismo.
Transversalidades entre Rudolf Otto e o Pentecostalismo
Authors: Pommerening Claiton Ivan
Published: July 2018

O pentecostalismo, diferentemente das religiões mais letradas, conseguiu incorporar à sua vivência de fé diária as manifestações experienciais do numinoso. Para entender esses fenômenos de forma racional, escolheu-se traçar comparações da religiosidade pentecostal com a obra de Rudolf Otto, O sagrado, lançada em 1917 e que representou uma valiosa contribuição para compreender os fenômenos religiosos presentes principalmente nas religiões cuja ênfase recai sobre a experiência intensa com o sagrado, como é o caso do pentecostalismo. As hipóteses lançadas são que para o pentecostal pouco interessam as questões da sistematização racional, pois sua conversão e posterior vivência da fé, são valorizadas a partir da experiência viva com o numinoso, através das manifestações do Espírito Santo. Dessa forma a valorização maior recai sobre a experimentação do numinoso através do êxtase, do transe e do misticismo.
As possibilidades e desafios do relato biográfico: biografia & história: hagiografia, trajetórias e prosopografia
Authors: Ribeiro Vagno Batista
Published: July 2018

Nas últimas décadas, o estudo biográfico voltou a ter destaque a partir daquilo que François Dosse chamou de Idade Hermenêutica, a saber, a possibilidade do estudo biográfico por meio da dinâmica compreensiva e teórica de novos postulados epistemológicos que dão aos indivíduos lugar privilegiado na composição narrativa. Neste sentido, o presente artigo busca analisar alguns elementos acerca do estudo biográfico no sentido de elencar possibilidades e desafios que se postam à frente do historiador.

The four types of Andosols defined above all occur in Ethiopia. Ochric Andosols are tipical in the drier parts of the Rift valley. Mollic Andosols occur in the wetter parts of the Rift valley and along the northeastern escarpment. Humic Andosols have been described on Mt. Ras DejenandMt. Batu. Vitric Andosols occur throughout the Rift and elsewhere in the country where coarser textured pyroclastics predominate. Sodics saline and Lithic phases are common in Mollic and Vitric Andosols in the Rift valley, and Lithic phses occur in the wetter highland, on steep slopes.
A geografia da historiografia: o acesso a e o uso da documentação por Joaquim Felício dos Santos nas Memórias do Distrito Diamantino (1868)
Authors: Cristovão dos Santos Pedro Afonso
Published: July 2018

O presente artigo analisa a obra Memórias do Distrito Diamantino (1868), de Joaquim Felício dos Santos (1822-1895), sob o ponto de vista da localização das fontes e seu uso por parte do autor. O artigo investiga as possibilidades de escrita de histórias regionais no Segundo Império refletindo sobre as potenciais limitações que o envio de documentos das províncias para a Corte (bem como as remessas para Lisboa, no período colonial, e para outros centros regionais, como Ouro Preto, no caso das Memórias analisadas) poderia trazer para os historiadores, e suas formas de superá-las. Tal delimitação geográfica, tanto do objeto de estudo da obra, como dos arquivos à disposição do autor, poderia levar a uma consideração maior, por exemplo, das tradições orais locais como fontes. Por outro lado, a inserção do autor na sua região (como a de Joaquim Felício no Distrito Diamantino) se traduz em uma posição determinada a partir da qual o autor avalia e hierarquiza as evidências históricas com as quais trabalha. O artigo propõe, nessa linha, uma discussão sobre as evidências a partir das reflexões de François Hartog.
Atuação e funcionamento da Justiça no Brasil Imperial: O caso do Tribunal do Júri de São Leopoldo/RS
Authors: Von Mühlen Caroline
Published: July 2018

O presente artigo tem o intuito de analisar as informações que os processos criminais e as fontes diversas do Judiciário podem revelar a respeito do Tribunal do Júri, instalado em São Leopoldo no ano de 1846, quando a Capela Curada foi elevada à condição de Vila. Quanto às fontes do Judiciário, cabe destacar que no Memorial do Judiciário encontramos documentos diversos acerca do funcionamento do Tribunal do Júri, como por exemplo: Livro de Atas das sessões (1846-1870), Livro de fianças (1871-1899), Multa dos Jurados (1846-1896), Protocolo das audiências (1858-1874), Rol de culpados (1846-1896), Sorteio dos Jurados (1846-1871). O campo jurídico, segundo o francês Pierre Bourdieu (2002, p. 17), “deve ser pensado também como um espaço social. Nele, as práticas e discursos resultam das relações específicas que o estruturam, orientando as lutas pela concorrência e pela lógica interna das obras que delimitam o universo das soluções propriamente jurídicas”.  Pensando o campo jurídico tal qual apresentou Bourdieu, e através de uma análise qualitativa, quantitativa e do cruzamento de fontes objetivamos entender qual era a estrutura, função e atuação do Tribunal do Júri, se o tribunal de São Leopoldo enfrentou dificuldades para se organizar e se os jurados de fato compareciam às sessões.

Narrativización mediática de la Operación Jaque y la construcción de la idea del fin del conflicto
Authors: Becerra Gómez Ginna Mercedes , Burgos Suárez Julián Andrés
Published: July 2018

Las formas en que desde diferentes medios de comunicación se narraron los acontecimientos del 2 de julio de 2008, conocidos como la Operación Jaque, determinaron la manera en que la opinión pública colombiana entendió, para dicho momento, el fin de las FARC y por consiguiente, el final del conflicto armado. Se descubre que la idea del fin del conflicto surgida en dicho momento, es el resultado de una estrategia narrativa que hace posible entender que desde la Operación Jaque, la correlación de fuerzas en el conflicto armado cambió: porque de un relato centrado en las víctimas, se pasó a un relato centrado en los héroes. Así, el enfoque de la narrativización de acontecimientos se convierte en una propuesta de análisis de los modos en que las diferentes narrativas mediáticas elaboran el sentido de lo real y la memoria de lo pasado.
Rendimiento académico en función del estilo de aprender en estudiantes universitarios
Authors: Saavedra Bautista Claudia Esperanza , Salcedo Plazas Luis Alfonso
Published: July 2018

Este artículo es resultado de la implementación de guías didácticas diseñadas a partir de los estilos de aprendizaje de estudiantes universitarios como estrategia para mejorar su rendimiento académico. Se presentan los estilos de aprendizaje de mayor predominancia, así como la relación con su rendimiento académico, entendiendo éste como el nivel de conocimientos demostrados por los estudiantes en el marco del curso. Es un trabajo realizado bajo una modalidad presencial con cursos interdisciplinares entre los semestres I y VI de la facultad de ciencias de la educación de la Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia. El estudio concluye que enseñar teniendo en cuenta el estilo de aprender de los estudiantes, puede mejorar su rendimiento académico y atender sus diferencias individuales, lo que propicia la construcción de un currículo integrador en el que se reconoce la diversidad de saberes en el aula.
Educación, comunicación y hermenéutica: Elementos para configurar una metáfora de viaje hacia la incertidumbre
Authors: Muñoz Cruz Luis Manuel
Published: July 2018

La cita anterior invita a comprender la metáfora del viaje como “cierto deleite estético” que le aporta al desarrollo del presente artículo. En esa misma línea metafórica los viajes emergen para conocer territorios culturalmente distintos a un escenario habitual, convierten a los visitantes en forasteros que parten con un sinfín de experiencias y emociones; contribuyen a ello miles de razones y circunstancias a veces deseadas por la voluntad y otras tantas ajenas a ello, sus entramados no son construidos con la vaga idea de una ruta única, sino que perderse, hallar atajos o hacer largos peregrinajes será tan importante como darse cuenta que andábamos perdidos o que estamos finalmente cerca de un destino, lo cual posibilita la deconstrucción de cuestionamientos inherentes a nuestra humanidad como por ejemplo: ¿hacia dónde vamos? o ¿quiénes somos?. Los componentes de este artículo serán la metáfora del viaje y la figura del viajero transitando por conceptos como la educación, la comunicación y la hermenéutica, donde será preciso colocar en riesgo cada identidad y sacudirse las imposiciones y raíces para permitirse ser de otra manera, un experimentador que hace posible otras experiencias.
El americanismo y la historia: Algunas pautas diacrónicas de creación de americanismos (léxicos)j
Authors: Ramírez Luengo José Luis
Published: July 2018

La definición del americanismo y el análisis concreto de estos elementos en momentos pasados cuentan ya con una bibliografía realmente notable, pero quizá no hayan sido tan estudiados, sin embargo, los procesos diacrónicos que terminan por dotar de este carácter a determinadas unidades léxicas a través de la historia. Precisamente en esta línea, el presente trabajo investiga sobre ciertos aspectos teóricos que afectan al americanismo, su definición y sus principales características, para después poder exponer una metodología adecuada de análisis de estos elementos en su dimensión histórica y las pautas históricas que determinan su creación, así como, a partir de lo anterior, una taxonomía que establezca los diversos subtipos que se pueden distinguir cuando se atiende a su diacronía.
Memorias usurpadas: “pensatorios” a propósito del día del idioma
Authors: Parra Yolanda
Published: July 2018

El presente escrito propone un diálogo con la intención de aproximar el abordaje epistémico planteado en mi tesis doctoral “Más allá del Océano: Otros Horizontes del Posible” con la realidad de la experiencia como profesora del programa de Etnoeducación en la Universidad de la Guajira. La ruta de análisis se plantea haciendo uso de la Matriz TerritorioCuerpoMemoria, elaboración conceptual desde la cual se pretende indagar sobre las prácticas pedagógicas y relaciones de poder planteadas en los discursos institucionales, religiosos y mediáticos, así como la responsabilidad de la educación en la fragmentación y descontextualización de la memoria colectiva de los pueblos.
