Msipa, Cephas G, In Pursuit of Freedom and Justice: A Memoir. Harare: Weaver Press 2015, xiv & 185 pp.
Authors: Masakure Clement
Published: June 2021

In Pursuit of Freedom and Justice: A Memoir by veteran nationalist Cephas Msipa joins the list of memoirs and biographies of women and men who fought for majority rule in Zimbabwe. Born on 7 July 1931 in the Shabani District in the Midlands province (p 1), "a teacher by profession and a politician by circumstances" (p ix), Msipa was a key member of the nationalist movement and a prominent politician in the post-colonial era. Born of poor peasants, Msipa's childhood was typical of many of his generation until he became politicised at a young age, especially during encounters with Benjamin Burombo, a proto-nationalist and a friend of his father, whom he describes as his political mentor (p 4).

KNOWLEDGE PRODUCTION AND DECOLONISATION — NOT ONLY AFRICAN CHALLENGES
Authors: Melber Henning
Published: June 2021

The following arguments are in support of a “renegotiation of the terms of knowledge production” (Horáková 2016: 47). By doing so, this essay sides with demands by others (for example, Keim et al 2014) that “the need to move towards non-hegemonic forms of cooperation between academic realms and forms of knowledge is a practical-material as well as an intellectual task”, while “no success can be achieved without relentless criticisms on inhered spurious certainties” (Lagos 2015). Last but not least, this reasoning is influenced by the conviction that ‘neutral’ knowledge in a value-free vacuum detached from social interests does not exist: “ways of knowing and resulting bodies of knowledge are always historical and they are deeply political” (Bliesemann and Kostic 2017: 6). By pointing to the relevance of hierarchical structures and power, this essay concurswith Halvorsen (2016: 303) that, “the academic profession must rid itself once and for all of the notion that knowledge is invariably ‘positive’, that every question has one correct answer (the truth), and that this is to be obtained through one correct method”. After all —… knowledge of Africa has been produced within what we might define as a Western episteme. The theoretical, conceptual and methodological resources through which Africa is to this day rendered visible and intelligible speak from a place, about that place and in accordance with criteria of plausibility that use that particular place as the normative standard for truth (Macamo 2016: 326).I concur with Smith (1999) that true decolonisation is supposed to be concerned with having a “(m)ore critical understanding of the underlying assumptions, motivations and values that inform research practices” (Wilson 2001: 214). This is a necessary reminder that we should always include critical reflections when interStrategic Review for Southern Africa, Vol 40, No 1 Henning Melber rogating our own internalised value systems, which we often tend to understandand apply unchallenged as the dominant (if not only) norm.
Editorial: The Continuity of Change
Authors: Zondi Siphamandla
Published: June 2021

This, the second edition of the 40th volume of the Strategic Review, straddles a number of these above-mentioned focal areas regional security, epistemological shifts and state making. A number of articles in this edition come from the 2017 Limpopo/Gauteng Colloquium of the South African Association of Political Studies hosted by the Universities of Limpopo and Venda through the able hands of Dr Kgothatso Shai (UL) and Prof Richard Molapo (UNIVEN), and with the generous support of the National Institute for Social Science and Humanities. While most of the articles focus on the geographic area called southern Africa, two articles discuss issues that do not emanate from this area, but whose article on migration and terrorism draws from the experience of West Africa, but its insights should attract the attention of southern Africanists already worried about the rise of terrorism in Mozambique and on the Indian Ocean coast generally. Its arguments about the role of networks, inter-linkages of various kinds and globalisation-induced migration as factors in the changing nature and character of terrorism may help southern African anticipate what seems to be an emerging terror factor in its regional conflict theatre.
Politicised Public Service and Corruption in Lesotho
Authors: Rakolobe Mamello
Published: June 2021

Countries across the world are faced with high levels of corruption. In an effort to combat the threat, governments have declared war on corruption and have consequently put in place some anti-corruption institutions. The causes of corruption are numerous and the consequences are devastating for the social, political and economic development of nations. The perpetrators of corruption are in most cases the public servants as they are charged with the day-to-day administration of the government. This means that the caliber of public servants; which is determined by their recruitment inter alia will influence their practices and conduct. Lesotho has adopted a Westminster model of public administration in which recruitment to the public service is supposed to be merit-based. However, the recruitment of top officers such as Principal Secretaries is politically motivated and this has consequently resulted into a highly politicised public service; literature points that there is a relationship between politicisation of the public service and corruption. In this paper, I scrutinize and explain the effect of a politicised public service on the high magnitude of corruption in Lesotho. This study is based on secondary data such as official government reports, newspapers and research reports. I argue that the highly politicised public service in Lesotho contributes to the corruptionscourge that is besieging the country. I therefore recommend administrative reforms in view of depoliticizing the public service by removing the authority to appoint, promote and dismiss high-ranking public officers from the Prime Minister to a special Parliamentary committee that is inclusive of members from the ruling and opposition parties.
Change or Consistency? A Historical Overview of South Africa's Post-apartheid Foreign Policy
Authors: Gqiza Lona
Published: June 2021

This study examines the trajectory of South Africa's post-apartheid foreign policy by establishing the extent of change or consistency in its implementation since 1994. Under the ruling African National Congress (ANC), South Africa has emerged as a promising international actor, particularly within the Southern African region and on the African continent in general. The authors provide a historical analysis of the major trajectories of foreign policy articulation under the administrations of Presidents Nelson Mandela, Thabo Mbeki and Jacob Zuma spanning the period 1994 to 2018. In investigating the conception and execution of foreign policy under these dispensations, the authors unravel a consistent but skewed pattern of national role conception that underscores Pretoria’s vision to be a major actor in international affairs, both regionally and globally. We conclude that South Africa’s foreign policy during this period was marked by Mandela’s altruism, Mbeki’s Afrocentrism and the antediluvian signature of Zuma.
The Politics and Symbolism of the #ThisFlag in Zimbabwe
Authors: Mawere Tinashe
Published: June 2021

In the context of the hashtag movement #ThisFlag, this paper examines the sensual affects drawn from flag symbolism and why the Zimbabwean flag is policed by the state. It uses the symbolism and politics of the hashtag movements by focusing on Evan Mawarire’s national lament and the Zimbabwean flag. It employs a literary and discursive analysis of Mawarire’s lament using desktop research on the contestations surrounding the flag. It shows that in dominant nationalist discourses, the flag is imaged as the land/nation and feminised to warrant it utmost respect, protection, sanctity and re/productive capacity. On the other hand, the #ThisFlag has made use of the flag to resist and subvert grand and naturalised dominant discourses of nationalism and citizenship to foster new imagi/nations of the nation. The use of the flag by the movement provoked ZANU-PF’s ownership of the national flag, which is quite similar to and has been drawn from the flag of the party, hence the movement was challenging the identity of the party, its ownership and its relevance. The paper shows the fluidity of symbols and symbolic meanings and why #ThisFlag had symbolic radical power and the possibilities of using the state’s and ZANU-PF’s cultural tools to challenge ZANU-PF’s hold on national knowledge and power. It contributes to our understanding of both state-power retention and how subaltern voices can uncover the agency of subjects within the very instruments of control incessantly used by dominant regimes.

Yirmi birinci yüzyılda bilimsel ve teknolojik gelişmelere katkı sağlayarak ülkelerin refah düzeyini yükseltebilmek için bireylerin sahip olması beklenen en önemli becerilerden birisi yaratıcı düşünmedir. Fen eğitiminin temel amaçlarından biri de yaratıcı düşünme becerisini geliştirmektir ve bunun için çokça çaba harcanmaktadır. Bu çabanın sonuçlarını ortaya koyabilmek için, bu çalışmada Türkiye’de fen eğitimi alanında yaratıcı düşünme becerisi üzerine yürütülen tezlerin incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Doküman inceleme yöntemi ile incelenen 72 yüksek lisans veya doktora tezinin amaçları, çalışma grupları, yöntemleri, bulgular ve sonuçları içerik analizi yöntemiyle analiz edilmiş ve değerlendirilmiştir. 2002-2021 yılları arasında yürütülen tezlerin okul öncesinden üniversiteye tüm kademelerde gerçekleştirilmiş olmasıyla birlikte daha çok yedinci sınıf ve fen bilimleri öğretmen adayları ile yürütüldüğü görülmektedir. Tezlerin amaçları çoğunlukla bir fen öğretim yönteminin yaratıcı düşünme becerisine etkisini incelemek, yaratıcılığı etkileyebilecek faktörlerle ilişkisini belirlemek ya da yaratıcılık ile ilgili bir durumu ortaya koymaktır. Bu amaçlara ulaşmak için daha çok nicel ve karma yöntem araştırmalarının yürütüldüğü, ölçme aracı olarak ise daha çok Torrance ve Bilimsel Yaratıcılık Testi kullanıldığı bulunmuştur. Tezlerde denenen çağdaş öğretim yöntemlerinin yaratıcı düşünme becerisini geliştirmede genelde olumlu etkisi olduğu, yaratıcılığın farklı değişkenlerle ilişkisine yönelik ise tutarlı sonuçların olmadığı ve yaratıcılıkla ilgili durum değerlendirmelerinin farklı sonuçlar gösterdiği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Looking for the availability, access, and distribution of energy resources, the concepts of integration and distributed   generation “DG” are created, it seeks to generate economic growth and prosperity, and of course, the reduction of pollutants to the environment. Under this scenario, regulatory laws have been implemented worldwide for the incentive, organization, and inclusion of different technologies based on renewable energy. This document contains some of the technologies used for distributed generation and deals with the threats that decrease polluting emissions. In addition, a couple of international cases (Spain and Argentina) are studied from the legal framework and their experience in the introduction of the DG, also seeks to land from these experiences to the Colombian national context located in Law 1517 of 2014, it still has different legal loopholes and is growing. This has allowed the growth of these technologies in our country and allows us to present the different areas with a high potential for electricity generation such as wind and solar energy, for example, in the upper Guajira, in order to present a strategy for implement these DG technologies and contribute to accelerating their implementation, giving security to investors and consumers.

Все большая забота об окружающей среде приводит к необходимости создания новых полимерных материалов в промышленности текстиля.
Наибольшее предпочтение имеет текстиль, полученный из экологических продуктов или текстиль получаемый из биологических отходов.
Одним из экологичных продуктов является молоко, использование которого идеально для получения белка казеина, поскольку миллионы тон молока выбрасываются по всему миру ввиду истечения срока годности. В них находится до 3,2 % белка казеина. В 1930 годы прошлого века казеин уже использовался, в производстве волокон и так как там использовался формальдегид их прозводсто не было рентабельным.
С развитием науки и технологий были получены новые более экологические методы производства казеиновых волокон. В которых не используются вредные вещества и потребляют минимальное количество воды. В связи с некоторыми физическими и химическими свойствами, изделия из казеина требуют проведения дополнительных исследований. Например, способность казеина быть гидрофильным делает его более гладким, а ткани из него удобны для ношения людям больными кожными заболеваниями. Казеин обладает антибактериальными свойствами, что дает большие возможности в медицине.
Методы, использованные в данной работе, были проведены на недорогом и простом оборудовании. Результаты исследования на химические и физические свойства проверены на различные области применения. Полученные результаты отображены в нашей статье.

Experiencias socio etnográficas: el habitar y los imaginarios en Ciudad Juárez
Authors: Moreno Murrieta Ramón Leopoldo
Published: June 2021

Habitar y vivir en la frontera norte de México, representa todo un cúmulo de experiencias y trayectorias que los residentes asumen al llegar o permanecer en ella, condiciones que de alguna manera se retoman en su cotidianidad, donde los sentimientos, emociones, formas de ver su colonia o fraccionamiento corresponde a los mundos sociales, culturales y urbanos que se construyen en cada rincón de la vida citadina.
Historia, sociedad, territorio, medio físico son algunos de los elementos que se entrelazan cuando se analiza el habitar, y su relación con los imaginarios, arquitectura, relaciones sociales, los cuales permiten vincular sus experiencias no solo de vivir en la ciudad, sino aquellas que se relacionan con los mecanismos de pensarla, población, grupos de edad, permanencia, vivienda son otros factores que se consideran en el estudio de las experiencias sociales y etnográficas que recurren en una localidad fronteriza como lo representa Ciudad Juárez.
En este contexto, las visiones que se tienen en la cotidianas de los residentes de esta ciudad del norte de Chihuahua, permiten ver los marcos de acción y el espacio donde se realiza la misma, el lugar adquiere un elemento de simbolismo y emblemático representativo en el traslado de formas de pensamiento y tareas específicas que se derivan dentro de su habitar y el imaginario que se desprende en las tareas cotidianas de sus pobladores.
La estrategia metodológica que se utiliza en este estudio parte de un enfoque fenomenológico de considerar al residente como un actor que vive, ocupa y piensa el territorio donde se asienta para reconocer sus principales formas de visualizar su entorno inmediato y próximo, para poder representarlo por medio de sus conversaciones vía entrevista, así como la observación no directa por medio de recorridos de campo, la ubicación de su espacio (cartografía) y el retrato del lugar donde se desarrolla (fotografía) los cual nos permite describir, explicar e interpretar los principales hechos de carácter social, etnográfico y urbanístico relacionados con el imaginario del lugar.

Según el Informe del Banco Mundial, What a Waste 2.0 (2018b), se generan 2010 millones de toneladas anuales de desechos sólidos en el mundo y, de ellos, al menos 33% no serán tratados. Se espera que esos residuos aumenten en los próximos años, lo que podría significar que para 2050 se estén generando 3400 millones de toneladas.
Es urgente prestar atención a lo anterior y actuar en consecuencia; la alerta ha llegado a Gobiernos, Instituciones y Organizaciones a nivel internacional y nacional. La Universidad de Sonora, atendiendo ese llamado comenzó un Programa para el tratamiento de la basura en el Campus de la Ciudad de Hermosillo, buscando la reducción y el reciclaje de materiales como cartón, papel, metal, plástico y otros.
Entre estos materiales se encuentra el Poliestireno expandido o Unicel, frecuentemente utilizado para empaque y resguardo de alimentos y bebidas, con un tiempo aproximado de 500 años para su degradación. De ahí la importancia de reducir su uso y, de ser posible, su eliminación como material de empaque de alimentos consumidos por la población.
La División de Ciencias Económico-Administrativas de la Universidad de Sonora, sirvió como foco de atención para observar la conducta que asumen los estudiantes y docentes en torno al tema que nos ocupa.

Pendidikan kewarganegaraan dalam pengertian sebagai citizenship education, secara substantif dan pedagogis didesain untuk mengembangkan warga negara yang cerdas dan baik untuk seluruh jalur dan jenjang pendidikan. Pendidikan Kewarganegaraan (PKn) merupakan program pendidikan berdasarkan nilai-nilai pancasila sebagai wahana untuk mengembangkan dan melestarikan nilai luhur dan moral yang berakar pada budaya bangsa Indonesia yang diharapkan dapat menjadi jati diri yang diwujudkan dalam bentuk perilaku dalam kehidupan sehari-hari peserta didik baik sebagai individu, sebagai anggota masyarakat dan makhluk ciptaan tuhan Yang Maha Esa. hasil observasi awal di SDN 1 Kapongan, terlihat  bahwa  situasi  belajar  mengajar  masih menggunakan metode lama yakni Ceramah, hal ini menyebabkan pengajaran yang berpusat pada guru sehingga prestasi belajar siswa pada mata pelajaran PKn di SDN 1 Kapongan  masih  rendah  dan  menunjukkan  nilai  yang  masih  di bawah  Standar  Ketuntasan  Belajar  Minimal  (SKBM=70).  Sistem  pengajaran yang  baik  seharusnya  dapat  membantu  siswa  mengembangkan  diri  secara optimal serta mampu mencapai tujuan-tujuan belajarnya. Dari  hal tersebut perlu dicarikan alternatif  lain untuk meningkatkan hasil  belajar  PKn  siswa  pada  materi  peranan  globalisasi.  Hal  ini  mengingat pentingnya  pengajaran  PKn  untuk  membentuk  karakter  siswa  tingkat Sekolah Dasar,  sehingga  dipilihlah  pendekatan  CTL  yang  diharapkan dapat meningkatkan minat dan motivasi siswa dalam pembelajaran PKn  pada materi  peranan  globalisasi.  Selain  itu  penerapan  CTL  menekankan  keaktifan siswa  dalam  pembelajaran  sehingga  merangsang  kemampuan  berfikir  yang diharapkan dapat meningkatkan prestasi belajar siswa pada pembelajaran PKn pada materi peranan globalisasi.Hasil pembelajaran pembelajaran PKn siswa pada siklus I diketahui jumlah nilai rata-rata yang diperoleh adalah 69.75 dari dua puluh siswa, yang mendapat nilai di atas KKM berjumlah sepuluh orang, dan sisanya masih banyak siswa yang mendapatkan nilai rendah. Hal ini berarti bahwa nilai pembelajaran PKn siswa 50 masih di bawah KKM yang ditetapkan, yaitu 70. Pada Pembelajaran PKn siswa pada siklus II diketahui jumlah nilai rata-rata yang diperoleh adalah 77.75 dari dua puluh siswa, yang mendapat nilai di atas KKM berjumlah enam belas orang, sisanya masih mendapatkan nilai di bawah KKM. Hal ini berarti bahwa nilai pembelajaran PKn siswa 80 sudah di atas KKM yang ditetapkan, yaitu 70.

Assessment of management commitments is required for investment in Occupational health and safety program. This systemic literature review evaluates 15 cases of Occupational health and safety (OHS) interventions to assess whether the implementation of OHS is beneficial. Search engines used in literature review are Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Pubmed. Studies related to benefit cost analysis included in the search include also looking at company productivity. The focus of this analysis includes samples, design, theoretical framework, implementation OHS, validity and results.Results show,in 15 cases, cross-sectional research design looked at pre-after comparisons in the absence of control groups. The positive return on investment from the implementation of OHS is shown in 13 studies. Two other studies concluded that their chosen implementation of OHSwas not cost-effective. The main benefit is to reduce sick leave. In 3 cases the perceived benefit is an increase in productivity and quality. The conclusions in this study required a guideline for the evaluation of the implementation of OHS.

Background: Personal protective equipment (PPE) provides a physical barrier between microorganism and wearer. It’s important to assess the level of compliance with use of PPE by the various health care workers (HCWs) who make direct contact with patients. Methods: Non-experimental descriptive design was used with quantitative survey approach. Setting of the study was in a tertiary hospital, Bengaluru. Samples were all HCWs those who were available during study period. Sample size was total 200. Non probability, purposive sampling technique was used for the study. The data was collected using an observational checklist. Results: Out of 200 HCWs, majority (34%) was nursing students and remaining (33%) of each were doctors, and staff nurses. Percentage wise distribution of HCWs according to the level of practice on usage of PPE in wards showed that majority (60%) had average practice, whereas the lowest percentages (6%) had poor practice. Majority (72%) of HCWs in intensive care unit (ICU), operation theatre (OT) and labour room (LR) had good practice whereas the lowest percentage (1%) had poor practice. There was significant association found between the practice scores on usage of PPE with the selected demographic variables i.e. HCWs, age, educational qualification and years of work experience. Conclusion: Findings of the present study concluded that there is a requisite to improve the practices of HCWs’ on usage of PPE. Periodic reinforcement and training programs are needed for all level of HCWs in order to maintain adherence with appropriate use of PPE.

Aim: evaluate outcomes of single visit regenerative endodontic procedures using conventional irrigation protocol in comparison to LASER disinfection in comparison to 0.2% Nano Chitosan irrigating solution for treatment of necrotic mature anterior teeth with periapical lesions. Methodology: 45 patients were recruited in this trial. Preoperative standardized cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed for the patients after fulfillment of inclusion criteria. After complete diagnostic steps and signing of consent forms and performance of access cavity preparation,patients were randomly distributed into three groups with three disinfection maneuvers:1. Group A (Intervention 1)final disinfection using Low Power Diode LASER disinfection.2. Group B (Intervention 2 ) final rinseusing 0.2% Nano Chitosan irrigation disinfection in a side perforated needle.3. Group C (Control) conventional irrigation protocol using 1.25% sodium hypochlorite irrigating solution and 17% EDTA only.Platelet rich fibrin was packed inside the root canals followed by collagen plug and Biodentin. Teeth were restored using resin modified glass ionomer. Patients were recalled for regular follow ups at 6 and 12 months. Patients were examined for survival of treated teeth and any inflammatory signs or symptoms. All samples were tested for sensibility. All data were statistically analyzed. Results: Single visit regenerative endodontics possessed an overall percentage of success 95.5% in all groups in terms of survival of treated teeth. Regarding sensibility nano chitosan also possessed the highest percentage of cases regaining sensitivity by 73.3% followed by laser group 67.7% followed by the control group with 46.7% also with no statistical significant difference between all groups. Conclusion: Within limitations of this study single visit regenerative endodontics can be applied to cases with necrotic pulps and periapical lesions where thorough disinfection is recommended in cases of single visit approach to ensure maximum elimination of bacterial cells from root canal hindering successful regenerative process

Prostate cancer can be caused by heavy metals exposure that can be identified from increasing levels ofmetallothionein. Exposure to heavy metals is carcinogenic through the formation of ROS in the oxidativestress process. One of the markers of oxidative stress in prostate cancer is malondialdehyde. Purpose ofstudy to determine the relationship between levels of metallothionein and malondialdehyde in prostatecancer. Research design was cross sectional with subjects were 30 patients with prostate cancer at districthospital at Purwokerto, Indonesia. Measurement levels of metallothionein and malondialdehyde usedELISA sandwich method. Data analysis used Spearman correlation test. There was a correlation betweenlevels of metallothionein and malondialdehyde (p <0.05, r = 0.36). The increase of metallothionein levelcause enhancement malondialdehyde level. As a conclusion, study report that there was corelation betweenmetallothionein and malondialdehyde levels illustrates the process of oxidative stress on prostate cancer dueto heavy metals exposure.
