Introduction: The Corona Virus Anxiety Scale (CAS) is a widely used tool with high diagnostic power in the field of corona anxiety diagnosis, but so far no research in Iran has examined the internal structure of this scale, so research in this field seems necessary. Method: The present study is a descriptive-analytical study that was conducted in 2021. The statistical population of this study was all adults living in Isfahan, of whom 409 (342 females and 67 males) responded to the Corona Anxiety Scale by available sampling method. According to the existing conditions, the scale was prepared online and published in cyberspace, and those who were interested completed the scale. In order to analyze the data, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and AMOS and SPSS software were used. Results: The results of exploratory analysis confirmed the single-factor nature of this scale. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that this scale has good construct validity and fit model. This scale also had a high internal consistency (Cronbach's affinity coefficient = 0.859) Conclusion: The Coronavirus Anxiety Scale has a good validity in the Iranian population and can be used to assess coronavirus anxiety in this population.
Functions of Intertextual Inclusions in Contemporary Publicist Discourse
Authors: Nikolaeva M. N. , Trunova O. V.
Published: November 2023

Introduction. This research paper focuses on the phenomenon of intertextuality which is studied on the basis of the articles of American socio-political magazines. The aim of the study is to identify the types and techniques of intertextual inclusions, which contribute to the formation of the depth of the integral semantic content of the texts of publicist discourse. The relevance and scientific novelty of the work stem from the need to study the functions of intertextual inclusions in non-fiction discourse. In this case communicative, axiological and pragmatic functions are considered to be the leading ones in linguistic and non-linguistic expressions.

Methodology and sources. Fragments of journalistic texts expressing intertextuality were selected by means of sampling. The sources of intertextual inclusions were revealed with the help of explanatory and linguacultural dictionaries and internet-resources. The analysis of intertextual inclusions and definition of their functions were carried out taking into account the genre and stylistic typology of the texts, the direct linguistic and socio-cultural context.

Results and discussion. Intertextual inclusions in publicist discourse imply the existence of associative links between the source text and the recipient text. The identification of these links helps to extend the meaning of the information shared and to make it more comprehensible. The sources of intertextual inclusions in the American publicist discourse are both those of the world culture − Ancient Greek myths, the Bible, classical English literature and national − texts of the US presidents’ speeches.

Conclusion. The main purpose of incorporating source text elements into a recipient journalistic text is to fulfil informative, manipulative, axiological, predictive, and other functions. The degree of influence of the conveyed information depends on the cognitive base of the addressees, their general cultural competence and their ability to establish associative links between the reported and the implied. Due to their emotional tone, intertextual inclusions are an attractor that organize the text’s semantic structure. They let us consider a journalistic text as a unified semantic and communicative-pragmatic integrity.
Kant's Turn: Between Actual and Potential Infinity
Authors: Philatova M. I.
Published: November 2023

Introduction. The purpose of the article is to show that Kant's turn is the answer to the problem of actual infinity, in the light of which it becomes clear how Immanuel Kant contributed to the turn of Western epistemology to non-classics. The relevance of the research is due to the need to make modern epistemology more “sighted” in relation to its own prospects and opportunities.

Methodology and sources. The author of the article reconstructs and critically analyzes Kant's approach to neutralizing the problem of actual infinity on the basis of the involvement of both primary sources and historical-philosophical and historical-scientific works, modern research in the field of the theory of cognition.

Results and discussion. Kant's separation of “in itself” and “for us” separates the finite and dependent world from the infinite and independent. The latter is emptied of its theological content (inherited from Nicholas of Cusa) and, instead of a central meaning, receives a peripheral one, is declared an unknowable thing in itself. And the former is endowed with some properties of the latter and is declared a self-sufficient education. So the transcendent becomes transcendental, and the problem of the connection between the finite and the infinite, discussed by Kant's predecessors (Galileo, Descartes, etc.), is neutralized and passes into the category of antinomies. But the discovery of the inconsistency of Kant's separation “in itself” and “for us” makes the problem of the ratio of the finite and the infinite relevant again. However, now the former becomes completely blind to the latter, so that everything that is beyond “for us” can be attributed to “in itself”. Thus, in place of the actual infinity as transcendent, a potential infinity arises that does not know the limits of its immanence. The author of the article shows that such substitution, while remaining unidentified, can disorient the modern theory of cognition even more.

Conclusion. Revealing how Kant's reinterpretation of the relation of the finite and the infinite contributed to the substitution of the actual infinity by the potential infinity makes it clear that such a substitution does not neutralize the original problem of the actual infinity, but that such a substitution is itself a real problem, the sharpening of which promises great changes in the theory of knowledge.
“Text of Culture” as a Category of Cultural Philosophy: from Semiotic Theory to Research Practice
Authors: Shatova E. N.
Published: November 2023

Introduction. Culture manifests itself in texts, one “reads” them, communicates with them. This communication takes place with varying degrees of competence; a high degree of competence is a necessary requirement for “reading” a cultural text in research practice. The article presents a metatheoretical construction on the basis of the analysis of the semiotic theory of the “text of culture” of the Tartu-Moscow school. The aim of the analysis is to develop a cultural-philosophical research practice. The author addresses the following tasks: justification of the necessity of metatheoretical constructions around Lotman's semiotics of culture; categorisation of the “text of culture”; characterisation of the semiosis of the “text of culture” as the necessary generation of the metatext; outlining the principles of research "reading" of the “text of culture”. The article is of a theoretical and methodological character.

Methodology and sources. The methodological basis of the research is the traditions of Russian cultural semiotics and the Tartu-Moscow semiotic school. The main parameters for the selection of scientific publications: the degree of semiotic problematization of the cultural text; the possibility of explicating the concepts being sought; the perspective of meta-theoretical constructions.

Results and discussion. The study allows us to formulate theoretical and methodological conclusions. The necessity of developing semiotics of culture in the Tartu-Moscow school is justified by the increasing complexity of modern culture as an open dynamic system, and by the un-realized methodological purpose of the institution. The “text of culture” is the most important notion of cultural-philosophical research. Its necessary categorization opens perspectives for the development of procedures of semiotic analysis of artifact as the “text of culture”, and for the interpretation of its semiosis, taking into account the mechanisms of functioning of immanent structures. The most important direction of cultural-philosophical analysis of the cultural text is its semiosis, which is treated as the sign functioning of the artifact-text within the boundaries of an open system that is culture as “one”.

Conclusion. Principle aspects of the proposed cultural-philosophical practice: 1) the categorical system of semiotics of culture has to include the position of “text of culture” which fixes genetic relationship of text and culture; 2) “semiosis” of artifact as “text of culture” naturally generates metatextual space of culture as a result of systems openness within the borders of culture as “the one”.
Everyday Corruption Practices of Young People in Argentina and Russia: the Experience of Comparative Analysis
Authors: Morayta I. A. , Pruel N. A.
Published: November 2023

Introduction. The relevance of the topic is conditioned by the complexity and multidimensionality of the phenomenon of corruption and its negative impact on all aspects of modern society. The literature review shows that corruption has been analyzed from different angles, although no comparisons were found between countries such as Russia and Argentina. The comparison of corrupt behavior in these two societies presents academic interest because they share common features, do not belong to liberal-Western countries, but at the same time differ greatly in such factors as economic and political stability.

Methodology and sources. From the theoretical and methodological point of view, the research is based on the scientific works of R. Merton, P. Bourdieu and M. Zaloznaya devoted to the issues of deviant behavior, motivation of action, practical sense and corrupt behavior. This article identifies, analyzes and compares corrupt behaviors in everyday life in Russia and Argentina, based on data provided by Russian and Argentinean young people in virtual interviews conducted in 2020 (N25) and in focus groups (N2) implemented before the pandemic, and media materials. Atlas-ti qualitative data analysis program is used.

Results and discussion. In Argentina, corrupt behavior is highlighted to improve material living conditions in the context of constraints and in relation to institutions, Argentines mention more the police. While in Russia it is more related to the purpose of speeding up time, getting better services, graduating or avoiding a change of life project. Regarding institutions, universities and hospitals are mentioned.

Conclusion. The study shows that neither in Russia nor in Argentina can the logic of corrupt behavior be reduced to the logic of economic behavior, as there are different motives, such as fear, custom, and assertion of right. The idea that certain situations are solved by money is widespread among young people in both societies.
Rudeness or Professional Competence: Negative Communication in the Information and Political Field
Authors: Ogorodnova A. M.
Published: November 2023

Introduction. The article presents the results of an empirical study, the main purpose of which was to consider communication between politicians and journalists, which can be characterized as negative. The main objectives of the study were to accumulate a database of typical conflict situations between politicians and journalists, their structural and role analysis; characterization of professional achievements and risks due to negative communicative actions.

Methodology and sources. The method of data collection was the case study. Focused on the in-depth study of the uniqueness of the object, in particular, a specific video document (a television story or a television interview), this method uses included observation and subsequent qualitative analysis of a specific situation, which reveals the possibility of identifying communicative scenarios and procedures that are difficult to identify by other methods. The article describes situations of interaction between politicians and journalists, published in the form of a media text and containing various types of conflicts. The conducted research is based on the ideas and positions of practice-oriented theories of social activity, set out in the works of P. Bourdieu, M. Weber, I. Hoffman, M. Castels, J. Habermas. Situational analysis is carried out within the framework of the so-called interpretive sociology, which considers social communication as a constitutive factor of people's behavior and activity.

Results and discussion. The selected situations are divided into categories, namely as situations that problematize informational, communicative and socio-role aspects of professional conflict interaction. Each designated category is considered from the point of view of negative communication techniques used by participants to solve their professional tasks.

Conclusion. The conceptual conclusion in the context of the research results suggests the total nature of conflicts between government officials and the mass media, which can be interpreted as an everyday reality in which the risk of c

Sketching the changing patterns in kaleidoscopes: New developments in corpus-based studies of translation features (2001–2021)
Authors: Pang Shuangzi , Wang Kefei
Published: November 2023

Corpus-based Translation Studies (CTS) have developed and advanced substantially since its emergence in the 1990s. This article provides an overview of the evolution of CTS from 2001 to 2021, identifying new challenges and research opportunities. The evolution of CTS is presented into two stages: the establishment of the subject matter and the expansion of research, respectively. We argue that CTS may enter the stage when the traditional specialties, such as using corpora in contrastive linguistics and translation, continue to advance, while a variety of new research points emerge and expand. After outlining current problems and unresolved issues, the analysis presents newly emerged research areas, assumptions, perspectives, and cross-fertilization with neighboring disciplines as the new developments in CTS. Four possible trends in CTS are framed and presented accordingly. The analysis highlights the significant advancements made in CTS over the past two decades and provides a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners interested in understanding the current state of CTS, and the directions it may take in the future.
Lexical simplification in learner translation: A corpus-based approach
Authors: Kwok Ho Ling , Laviosa Sara , Liu Kanglong
Published: November 2023

The advance of corpus-based methodology in translation studies has greatly enhanced our understanding of the nature of translational language. While most research efforts have focused on identifying the unique features of translations carried out by professionals, comparatively fewer studies have investigated the linguistic features of student translations. In this corpus-based study, we examine if learner translations carried out by Hong Kong students exhibit lexical simplification features vis-à-vis comparable written texts. The study is based on two comparable corpora: the International Corpus of English in Hong Kong (ICE-HK) and the Parallel Learner Translation Corpus (PLTC) compiled at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Following Laviosa (1998), we compare four main lexical features (lexical density, type-token ratio, core vocabulary coverage, and list head coverage) to investigate if student translations show a simplification trend. The results demonstrate that Chinese-to-English translation is not lexically simpler than English as a Second Language (ESL) writing. Furthermore, it is lexically denser than ESL writing. Our study aims to provide new insights into learner translation as a form of constrained communication.
PRIORITY AREAS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF GLOBAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN UKRAINE IN THE CONTEXT OF STRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE DIGITAL ECONOMY
Authors:   Kyiv National Economic University named after Vadym Hetman, Kovalchuk Tamila
Published: November 2023

The modern development of global entrepreneurship in Ukraine necessitates modernisation, taking into account the transformation of the digital economy, the difficult situation in the country caused by the war, national peculiarities of socio-economic relations and changes in the global market. The article investigates that the modern interpretation of the concept of entrepreneurship is closely related to innovative development as the main component of obtaining effective performance results to meet economic and social needs and increase the level of competitiveness. It is found that the economic component of global entrepreneurship development is primarily associated with the growth and expansion of services in the field of information and communication technologies based on the digitalisation of the economy. The state of the world economy in the recent period is analysed, and the results of the functioning of the Ukrainian economy in recent years are assessed within the framework of two approaches that differ in the criteria used. It is noted that Ukraine is moving to the formation of a new sectoral model of the national economy, which will address the transformation of its industrial society into a post-industrial one in accordance with the goals of sustainable development in the post-war period. It is found that the digital transformation of business can take place in two ways – fast but risky and gradual but more stable. The destruction caused by the war should be used as an opportunity to restore, modernise and expand the use of/ access to communication and digital infrastructure. In the medium term, numerous measures can be introduced to ensure that firms in the digital economy can access finance and talent, as well as reduce bureaucratic procedures. In the longer term, Ukraine could focus on building a robust data infrastructure to measure the digital economy. It is substantiated that a firm’s digital strategy requires a change in the entire management of Ukraine’s global enterprise development in the context of the structural transformation of the digital economy, especially the business model. Small and medium-sized enterprises can use business models focused on organisational processes and customer value. A number of recommendations are proposed to promote the development of global entrepreneurship in Ukraine in the context of the structural transformation of the digital economy.
GLOCALIZATION AS A DETERMINING FACTOR OF ORGANIZATION OF FOREIGN ECONOMIC ACTIVITY IN THE CONDITIONS OF EUROPEAN INTEGRATION

In the conditions of European integration, economic organizations are forced to solve a kind of dilemma: to perceive the international business environment as a homogeneous globalized system that needs a unified strategy of behavior, or, nevertheless, to consider it as a heterogeneous set of conditionally separated spaces, which are represented by integration entities at the region or even local market levels, the conquest of which is possible if differentiated approaches are used. Approaches to the interpretation of the term "glocalization" meaning, which denotes the contradictory spatio-temporal configuration of the international business environment, which is formed under the influence of alternating modes of heterogeneity growth and smoothing, overlapping of globalization and regional integration factors have been systematized in the article. The prerequisites and driving forces of glocalization have been considered as a kind of synthesis of the processes of globalization and localization, which makes it possible at the same time to cultivate the territorial specificity of a certain activity, with an orientation towards the minimization of circulation costs, and the emergence of business interests in overcoming geographical distance, with an orientation towards the minimization of unit production costs of products. It has been proved that in the conditions of hypercoherence of the world economy system, in order to adapt to the turbulent environment and ensure the proper efficiency of foreign economic operations in it, domestic enterprises are forced to develop a global strategy of foreign economic activity (FEA), a feature of which is the combination (on the basis of self-organization) of global and multinational strategy features with the aim of achieving a set of synergistic effects. The glocal strategy involves the development of an algorithm of actions that allows simultaneously generating advantages of scale, uniformity of products and price competition in a certain period of time (globalization) and differentiation of the product offer in spatially limited sales markets (localization). The term "glocal management of foreign economic activity" has been suggested to denote the process of applying management concepts and tools for regulating the behavior of business entities in a glocalized business environment. Based on the results of the research, structural and logical schemes for the formation of a glocalized business environment and the behavior of foreign trade entities in it have been developed.

Published: November 2023

Military actions on the territory of Ukraine, the occupation of entire regions of our country, the displacement of the population and the loss of logistical connections and segments of the internal markets for goods and services have become a source of catastrophic threats for a large number of domestic economic entities. The possibilities of influencing the state of economic security of the enterprise during the formation and functioning of the organizational and economic management mechanism of the business entity, in the process of developing and optimizing organizational culture, etc., have been established. It is substantiated that the management of economic security is one of the areas of general management, it involves planning, organization, implementation and control of security-oriented solutions, i.e. it is closely combined by common goals with organizational activities and tools for their achievement. The coincidence of the goals of the enterprise's organizational and economic mechanism and its economic security system, which consist in achieving a high level of efficiency, profitability, and competitiveness of the enterprise in an environment full of risks, has been revealed. War risks for the state of economic security of enterprises, such as the destruction of non-current assets of the enterprise, occupation of markets, loss of customers in the occupied territories, destruction of infrastructure and logistics routes, displacement of persons who held important positions in the organizational structure of the enterprise, staff turnover due to increased migration processes, temporary work stoppages during air alarms or power outages, violation of partnership relations with enterprises from uncontrolled territories are generalized. Such areas of improvement of operational activities of enterprises such as optimization of personnel placement, restructuring of the organizational structure in the direction of highlighting the segment of online customer service, studying the possibility of moving business, opening branches and representative offices in new regions, revising the personnel policy and organizational culture of the enterprise, creating customer support departments, formation of temporary teams to work on and finding new partners, are proposed.

Published: November 2023

El comercio y uso de vida silvestre es un problema complejo que se ve afectado por la dinámica temporal y geográfica de las redes de comercio y tráfico que estimulan la extracción y consumo de recursos. Para estudiar la historia de valoración, consumo y tráfico de la cotorra cabeciamarilla (Amazona barbadensis), el cardenalito (Sporagra cucullata) y el paují copete de piedra (Pauxi pauxi) consulté varias bibliotecas digitales para acceder a documentos originales de historia, geografía e historia natural. La búsqued arrojó 58 referencias del periodo 1526-1981 con información relevante sobre las motivaciones de consumo, su extracción, tráfico y comercio y el estado de las poblaciones naturales de las tres especies. Mientras el paují copete de piedra es amenazado por un mercado de consumo local, el Cardenalito y la Cotorra Margariteña tuvieron una fuerte demanda internacional que fue suplida inicialmente por el contrabando de mercancías desde las islas del Caribe, pero posteriormente se regularizó como una actividad comercial de gran envergadura. Las regulaciones internacionales limitan actualmente el comercio legal de estas especies, pero siguen existiendo alicientes suficientes para mantener el tráfico ilegal.
Re-reading Manet’s Painting Olympia(1865): The Black Cat and its Modernity of Symbolic Revolution -
Authors:   Korea Association of World History and Culture, Choy Yong-Chan
Published: November 2023

Edouard Manet’s masterpiece, Olympia, is one of the most scandalous works in art history. Embraced as an “obscene painting” from the time of its creation in 1865, it continues to this day to perpetuate a tradition of interpretation based on obscene codes. Recently, however, the brilliant sociologist Bourdieu’s interpretation of Manet and his work through the lens of the Symbolic Revolution has opened up new avenues for interpretation. In agreement with Bourdieu’s original problem-solving, I argue that Manet’s work should be reinterpreted according to a symbolic code rather than an obscene code.
From this perspective, the three objects in Olympia-the white prostitute, the black maid, and the black cat-are carefully selected symbols for Manet’s symbolic revolution. This article focuses on the modernity of Manet’s symbolic revolution, especially through the black cat. In the process, applying the cultural history of symbols research methodology, it reveals that Manet’s modern aesthetics, represented by the black cat, moved from Baudelaire’s modern poetics to Poe’s modern literature.
In this sense, we can conclude that Manet’s black cat is a modern mirror that reflects the negative psychological state of depression, anxiety, and fear, which was hidden within the revolutionary modern society that proclaimed freedom, equality, and charity. In a word, Olympia’s black cat represents the Janus-faced nature of modernity.

A Study on the Letter to the National Donation Campaign for the Preservation of Yi Chungmugong’s Tomb and the Rebuilding of Hyeonchungsa
Authors:   Korea Association of World History and Culture, Lee Kwang-Pyo
Published: November 2023

In May 1931, when Yi Chungmugong’s tomb was on the verge of being auctioned off as collateral, a national donation campaign was conducted to protect the tomb under the leadership of the Dong-A Ilbo. The donation campaign was held for a year, and more than 20,000 individuals and 400 organizations participated. At that time, about 1,000 people sent a letter with donations. This paper is intended to analyze the contents of the donation letter and to examine its characteristics and meaning.
At that time, most of the Koreans’ reactions were anger and shock. A lot of shame was revealed, and voices of self-reflection were also revealed. At the same time, the letter also showed confidence that if Koreans save money little by little, they will be able to protect Yi Chungmugong’s tomb. There was a strong tendency to accept this case not only as a problem for Yi Chungmugong’s descendants, but also as a common problem for ethnic groups.
The perception of Yi Chungmugong was also examined through the figurative title shown in the donation letter. The names of benefactor, great man, and hero were the most common, but the names related to the turtle ship(Geobugseon) and likened to light and savior were also revealed. The donation letter showed a lot of interest in Yi Chungmugong’s relics and remains, and there was also a perception that relics and remains should be managed by the public, not by descendants.
The Attitudes of Christians to the Old Testament at the First Half of the Second Century
Authors:   Korea Association of World History and Culture, Jung Gi-Moon
Published: November 2023

At the first half of the 2nd century, the Christians were seeking a new identity independent of Judaism. I studied the attitudes of three Christian leaders to Old Testament.
Clement of the Rome recognized the Old Testament as authoritative scriptures. He used the Old Testament as the basis for almost all arguments. The letter of Barnabas recognized the Old Testament as a sacred scripture, but its interpretation was completely different from that of Jews. The letter Barnabas used the Old Testament for only two purposes. One was to point out that the Jewish interpretation of the Old Testament was fundamentally wrong, and the other was to show that the Old Testament prefigured Jesus. So to the author of the letter of Barnabas the Old Testament was not a scripture that had any meaning in itself.
Marcion opposed the Barnabas’s attitude and argued that the Old Testament should be completely discarded. According to him, Jesus’s God has nothing to do with the God of Old Testament. Therefore, Christianity should abandon the Old Testament. In this way, in the first half of the 2nd century, attitudes toward the Old Testament developed in various ways within Christianity.
Colonial Power and the Timber Industry in Belize: Focusing on the logging of mahogany trees
Authors:   Korea Association of World History and Culture, Lee Sung-Jae
Published: November 2023

The history of the Baymen, from pirates to logwood and mahogany loggers to oligarchs, is an interesting one. As pirates, the Baymen were originally a very egalitarian group that rebelled against the hierarchy of society. They were democratic in the way they chose their leaders and had a very weak sense of racism. However, their sense of equality began to erode when they settled in the Bay of Honduras and began to make money from logging logwood and mahogany. This is why they actively engaged in slavery during the logging process.
The origins of the current Belizean oligarchy can be traced to this small group of loggers. They enjoyed wealth and power during the colonial period. Their descendants are still benefiting from the colonial legacy today, and they are blocking democracy in Belize. These issues are not new to Koreans with colonial experience. But their socioeconomic conditions were certainly different, and they created a unique social system. In this respect, the movement to stop the logging of mahogany and protect Belize’s forests will inevitably have to go hand in hand with addressing land monopolies and oligarchy.
A Review of the Aspect of the Yuan Dynasty Kings’(諸王) Exile to Goryeo
Authors:   Korea Association of World History and Culture, Kwon Yong-Cheol
Published: November 2023

This study examines the exile of the kings of the Yuan Empire as recorded in Goryeo history. The surviving records from Goryeo are very short and provide only bland information about who went into exile, when, and where. The “why” of the exile is less specific or not recorded at all, so we need to look at the political situation along with the records of the Yuan Empire, such as the Yuan History, to understand or estimate the reasons why such a high-profile figure as the Kings went into exile in Goryeo.
In the Yuan empire, the Kings was a member of the “golden clan” of Chinggis Khan and was not a “commoner”, so the exile of the Kings to a foreign country(Goryeo) was often the result of political turbulence or disturbances within the empire. In the cases analyzed in this article, except for a few cases where the reason for the exile is not clear, we can see that all of them were involved in rebellions within the empire or were involved in succession disputes. During Qubilai’s reign, rebellions challenging his authority often broke out, especially in the northern regions, and Sirigi himself led a rebellion, while the kings who participated in the Nayan-Qadan rebellion of the late 1280s and early 1290s also left their mark on Goryeo history through their exile. After Qubilai’s death, the succession dispute over the position of Qa’an(emperor) within the Yuan empire became increasingly intense, and the Kings involved in the dispute often went into exile in Goryeo.
Examining the exile of Kings of the Yuan Empire, which remains very fragmentary in Goryeo history, in connection with Chinese records such as the Yuan History, is an inevitable task in order to understand the background of the emergence of Goryeo records about exile of Yuan Kings. It is also a task that allows us to more specifically confirm and supplement the vague accounts of exile to the sea islands in Chinese records through Goryeo history. While this article focuses on the exile of a Kings of Yuan Empire and compares the records of both Goryeo and Yuan, this methodology can also be applied to examine various phenomena or figures that emerged due to the specificity of the Goryeo-Yuan relationship.
Patriotism in American Pin-Up Girls during World War II

During World War II, Pin-Ups played a big role in military propaganda. At the time, Pin-Ups weren’t just about comforting soldiers on the battlefield. Therein lay a uniquely American patriotism. In a liberal country like the United States, it is difficult to ask citizens to defend the country, so American politicians had to appeal to private obligations, first and foremost the moral obligations that exist between men and women. Pin-Ups were a useful tool to arouse men’s patriotism by conveying the message that they should defend their wives and girlfriends on the mainland.
Meanwhile, American women were able to find their own new sexual identity through Pin-Ups. The conventions that confined women to the roles of wife and mother were broken during the war. New attributes of independence and assertiveness were spreading among American women. The Pin-Up Girl, an icon of the active and desirable woman, was a useful model for American women to create a new self.
With the end of World War II and the return of men from overseas, the social climate for women returned to the past. A country that had actively supported women’s mobilization into the workforce during the war now began to tell women that it was their patriotic duty to return home. Women lost their place in the workplace and men-only magazines like Playboy became popular. However, the sense of liberation that American women experienced during the war, and the experience of living as full members of society, would later lead to the American women’s movement of the 1960s.

Trends and challenges of research on colonial rule and colonial power were summarized, focusing on discussions in recent research since the 2000s. First, I briefly summarize the discussion on how to name the period from 1910 to 1945 and how to classify the period. In addition, Joseon Governor-General which was a colonial power, was examined with a focus on the status and authority of the Governor-General and the Director-General of Political Affairs, the classification of colonial officials, and the relationship with the home government. And the discussion on the national nature of colonial power was summarized. Research on colonial rule was organized into assimilation and difference(discrimination). Assimilation looked at the civilization theory and mainland extension policy, and difference looked at autonomyism and distinct characteristics of Joseon as its main contents.
In-depth research on changes in ruling policy over time and a multifaceted approach to the ruling bloc, including colonial power and the private sector was raised as a future task. Additionally, it is necessary to determine what impact colonial rule had after liberation and whether the ultimate goal of colonial rule was complete assimilation or the existence of discrimination.

Background : The number of diabetic patients in Indonesia is on the rise. In contrast to typical wounds in non DMT2 patients, chronic wounds in DMT2 patients heal more slowly, which makes it difficult to achieve complete primary wound healing. Thus, surgery is frequently required to achieve optimal healing. Patients' physical condition, age, comorbidities, and financial circumstances such as high medical costs frequently limiting patients from receiving comprehensive care, resulting alternative treatments are required to treat chronic wounds in DMT2 patients whom prefer conventional medications, addressing all circumstances. Honey, in addition to having fructose compounds, which has the benefit of increasing glucose homeostasis and insulin response, resulting in lower insulin and plasma glucose levels, also has been shown to contain anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial substances that aid in wound healing. Thus, it may be an alternative therapy for chronic wound in DMT2 patients.

Methods : A Case-series studies of four DMT2 patients who were referred to Plastic and Reconstructive Outpatient ward with chronic wound were evaluated on a monthly basis following conservative treatment using Nusantara local honey-coated gauze.

Result : Secondary wound healing, which can be assessed from the epithelialization process started from the peri-wound area has been obtained through monthly observations.

Conclusion : Honey is used as an alternative therapy for patients with diabetic foot ulcers due to its anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties in the wound healing process. Furthermore, honey is considered less expensive and more affordable alternative for patients with co-morbidities that is impossible to operate, or with financial limitations.
