Advantages of ships as a means of sea transport are cheap, safe, economical land and capable of carrying passengers or goods in large quantities, making the ship as a means of transport required by the comm uni hj, especially the lower middle income communities. But in reality, the ministry of economy class passenger ships are not as good as any other commercial grade. The study was conducted to observe the operational performance of ships as a means of crossing, which is one of effective tools and efficient transportation in Tanjung Pinang and surrounding areas. Assessment method used is surve1J method with random manner, to distribute questionnaires to passengers ships used as a sample. Sampling is done in non-random sampling, where samples were taken only at the majority of passengers at random. Questionnaire method used is measurement of the attitude of respondents using semantic difference scale. On this scale respondents were asked to evaluate several variables, where each variable there are seven points with the left boundary and right boundary contains an adjective meaning the opposite. While data analysis using Multiattribute Attitude Model (MAM). Multiattribute Attitude In this model, the attitude of the respondents can be seen in the order of importance of each variable. From this study showed that in the operation of ships as a means of crossing with the performance variables of the availability of advanced types of transportation at the port, transport capacity, condition of existing facilities in the ship, less satisfacton;. Variable travel schedule as a means of crossing vessels was satisfactory. For the variables of travel speed, the cost of travel, smooth operation, service personnel, timeliness of departure/ arrival passengers satisfactory, while the variable passenger safehj is very satisfying journey.

An investigation into the 87Sr/86Sr radiogenic isotope geochemistry of the manganese ore of the Kalahari Manganese Field with a view on hydrothermal fluid flow and related rare earth element enrichments
Authors: Vafeas N.A. , Blignaut L.C. , Viljoen K.S. , Le Roux P.
Published: May 2019

The Paleoproterozoic Kalahari Manganese Field is the largest known land-based manganese (Mn) deposit on Earth and comprises five erosional relics of the iron- and manganese-rich Hotazel Formation. A total of 19 manganese ore samples from the lower manganese ore horizon of the Hotazel Formation were selected for analysis based on their relative metasomatic alteration states. These samples range from primary diagenetic, classic supergene enriched, hydrothermally enriched (Wessels-type ore) and thrusted manganese ore. When normalised to Post-Archaean Australian shale composites, rare earth elemental analyses on the selected samples indicate significant relative enrichments within the thrusted manganese ore, an ore type that hasn’t been studied from a geochemical point of view, so far. A comparison between these respective enrichments and 87Sr/86Sr ratios indicates a distinct link between REE enrichments and associated alteration events, and a progressive increase in 87Sr/86Sr isotope values. An isotopic relationship between fluid infiltration events and REE redistribution within the Hotazel Formation has been established, highlighting unique isotope signatures necessary in better defining and characterising metasomatism within the Paleoproterozoic Kalahari Manganese Field.
Mapping Social Justice Perspectives and Their Relationship with Curricular and Schoolsâ€™ Evaluation Practices: Looking at Scientific Publications
Authors: Sampaio Marta , Leite Carlinda
Published: May 2019

The main aim of this article is to give an overview of how the concept of social justiceâ€”as linked to curricular and evaluation practicesâ€•has been developed in scientific publications over the years. To achieve this goal, a mapping study was carried out by collecting scientific publications from the Web of Science Core Collection. The analysis focused on 217 articles from 50 scientific journals. Each one of the 217 articles was analysed through the process of content analysis. From this analysis, it was possible to conclude that the concept of social justice has been developed, in the main, from a broad view of equity in which inclusion and democracy are central. However, the political agenda, externally imposed and guided by accountability and effectiveness processes, frames all actions relating to social justice issues especially in schools. Accountability and effectiveness processes shape the way that social justice is perceived by policymakers and, consequently, how the processes to achieve them are considered and implemented.

Authors: Herrero Romero Rocio , Cluver Lucie , Hall James , Steinert Janina
Published: May 2019

No quantitative studies to date have specifically focused on the risk and protective factors for the educational resilience of socioeconomically disadvantaged adolescents who are not of compulsory school age in South Africa. This study compares the educational delay of 599 black adolescents aged 16 to 18 from socioeconomically disadvantaged communities in Western Cape and Mpumalanga to nationally and provincially representative estimates in South Africa. The paper also explores predictors for educational delay by comparing out-of-school adolescents (n = 64), and adolescents who are at least one year behind in school (n = 380), with adolescents in the age-appropriate grade or higher (n = 155). Risk factors for being behind included the following: male gender, past grade repetition, rural location and larger school size. Risk factors for being out of school were the following: past grade repetition, previous concentration problems at school, household poverty, and food insecurity. Protective factors for being in the age-appropriate grade included the following: living with biological caregivers, access to school counselling and attending schools in wealthier communities.
The Westbury Community Archive: Claiming the Past, Defining the Present towards a Better Future
Authors: Halim Mudney
Published: May 2019

This article looks at the process of compiling a community archive in Westbury, Johannesburg. The township is located alongside the better known Sophiatown. Its history provides an insight into the experiences of the working class in the city since the establishment of Johannesburg more than a 100 years ago. The motivation for this archive comes from the experiences of activists in dealing with social and economic challenges that this community continues to face, and the connection with past activism through the work of community activists like Florrie Daniels. Daniels kept meticulous records of community organisations she helped to establish around early childhood development, preventative healthcare, poverty alleviation, housing, sport, youth and womenâ€™s organisations, as well as political and civic movements from the 1960s onwards. Much of what is contained in the Florrie Daniels collection is associated with cooperative grassroots activity. Her collection offers a perspective that includes records of working-class solidarity around regional and national social and political struggles. It forms the basis of further accumulation of materials to incorporate into a community archive. The idea of the archive has encouraged dialogue between veteran activists, organisations that operate in the area and education institutions that resulted in collaborative approaches in its construction.Â Â Â
The Discourse of the New Unity Movement: Recalling Progressive Voice
Authors: Braam Daryl
Published: May 2019

This paper provides insight into how the discourse of the New Unity Movement (NUM) can potentially contribute to educational development in the context of South Africaâ€™s social inequality. It describes the political lens of the NUM and how its discourse countered the oppressive forces of a capitalist-apartheid system, in a struggle for an alternative world order. NUMâ€™s discourse is posited as a progressive voice whose educational analysis and sound pedagogic principles could be recalled towards transforming education in South Africa today. Critical discourse analysis (CDA) is applied to recontextualise the societal role of teachers and the role of critique in what Fairclough (2010) describes as evaluating society and possible ways to change it. The analysis of the NUMâ€™s writing also draws on Gramsciâ€™s (1971) concept of hegemony that enables further insight into cultivating an educational philosophy that is emancipatory.
Debates on Memory Politics and Counter-Memory Practices in South Africa in the 1990s
Authors: Grunebaum Heidi
Published: May 2019

Memory politics are often regarded as the â€œsoftâ€ issues contested in the aftermath of political and social upheaval. Yet critical public debates on memory, justice, impunity and reconciliation in South Africa prompted by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) process suggest otherwise. I offer a partial review of some of the key themes and critical debates on justice, reconciliation and memory in the 1990s, followed by a discussion of the spatial practices of the Direct Action Centre for Peace and Memory (DACPM) whose multilayered social pedagogy and activist repertoire of the transitional period challenged the terms of the political transition and the scope of the TRC. The debates on the TRC and the practices of the DACPM constitute but a glimpse into the significance of memory-work for now forgotten terrains of civil activist intervention, contestation and practice.
Transplanting the Fairy Tale: An Afrocentric Perspective
Authors: Livingston Candice
Published: May 2019

In the light of #FeesMustFall, decolonisation has come to the fore in the South African higher education landscape. Decolonisation proposes the overthrow of entrenched European power relations in higher education and the study of fairy tales within a pre-service teaching degree in a university English curriculum provides an ideal opportunity for lecturers to challenge this dominance. All too often, cultural fairy tales are analysed and studied within the European trajectory of the structuralist/formalist classification tradition, often rendering the tale to an oversimplified outline which has been reduced to archetypes, motifs and memes which are universalised across cultures and texts. Epistemic awareness of Afrikology has been suggested as a way of facilitating the inclusion of Afrocentric thinking in the English curriculum and giving pre-service teachers a voice in their own learning. The purpose of this paper is to track the creation of context-relevant cultural capital in the writing of fairy tales. An analysis of the results shows that deep critical engagement with the cultural metaphors presented in fairy tales leads to the development of Afrocentric cultural capital that is highly contextualised and rooted in the language and customs of the cultural identity of the writers who transcoded the fairy tales.

Published: May 2019

Cystic fibrosis is a life-limiting, recessive disease; it occurs due to mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19.9) is a tumour-associated, primarily occur in patients having biliary tract and pancreatic cancers but are also observed in patients having other malignancies. Conditions related to benign like cholestasis, cirrhosis, cholangitis, plus pancreatitis also result in CA 19-9 elevations. Raised levels of serum CA 19-9 seems in CF patient to be related to disease pulmonary exacerbation also in the lung the amount of sputum. Investigate whether serum and saliva (CA19.9) level may contribute to cystic fibrosis diagnosis establishment in patients. This "case-control study" consists of 80 individuals (30 patients and 50 healthy controls). Their age was range between one month and 18 years. Blood and saliva samples were taken from patients. Saliva level in patients was 1.775±1.030U/ml (P<0.001) as compared to control group (0.956±0.682 U/ml). A serum level of CA19.9 was found to be increased (P<0.001) by 0.818±0.601 U/ml in CF patients as compared to healthy (0.334±0.101 U/ml) control. From this study, we can conclude that the salivary CA19.9 level can be diagnosed as a marker for cystic fibrosis.

Published: May 2019

Garcinia mangostana pericarps have been traditionally used in Southeast Asia for a variety of medicinal conditions. The present study was carried out to determine the anti-motility and antispasmodic effects of methanolic and aqueous G. mangostana extracts (MEM and AEM) on isolated chicken ileum. Extracts were prepared from the pericarp of G. mangostana using maceration technique with methanol and distilled water. Isolated ileum preparations were set up for recording in Tyrode’s solution at 37°C. Dose-response curves were plotted using various doses of agonist as control such as acetylcholine (ACh) and histamine. Atropine, mepyramine and extracts were used as an antagonist. The results showed that methanolic and aqueous extracts possess significant concentration-dependent inhibitory effects (p<0.05) on agonist-induced contractions. The half maximal effective concentration (EC50) of extracts and standard antagonists were higher than the agonist alone. Both methanolic and aqueous extract of G. mangostana exerts anti-motility and antispasmodic effects on smooth muscle contractions. The study provides findings that support G. mangostana can be the potential treatment for diarrhoea and spasm.

Фактори ризику непсихотичних психічних та поведінкових розладів в умовах соціального стресу
Authors: Nikoriak Ruslana
Published: May 2019

Актуальність. Соціальна криза,триваючі, протягом майже 4-х років військові дії на Сході України, вимушена трудова міграція населення в пошуках матеріального забезпечення родини, а інколи – єдина можливість вижити в умовах соціально-економічної кризи, призвели до дезадаптації значної частини суспільства.

  Мета. Дослідити фактори ризику непсихотичних психічних та поведінкових розладів серед трудових мігрантів і учасників бойових дій з метою попередження  психічних захворювань.

  Результати дослідження. За допомогою скринінг-тесту обстежено 150 осіб – 80 учасників бойових дій і 70 трудових мігрантів. Стресовразливими виявились: 30 учасників бойових дій і 40 трудових мігрантів. Такі фактори ризику, як низький соціально-економічний статус, відсутність у значної частини трудових мігрантів і демобілізованих учасників бойових дій матеріального- роботи на час обстеження, відсутність «повного» порозуміння в родині та підтримки з їх боку призвели до емоційних переживань. «Несправедливість» та «часті» приниження за меншовартісттю у трудових мігрантів провокували появу тривоги та потягу до вживання спитрних напоїв. У демобілізованих учасників бойових дій «байдуже» ставлення до їхніх проблем з боку суспільства викликали дратівливість, агресію, які підсилювалися вживанням психоактивних речовин.

  Висновки. Трудова міграція і участь в бойових діях є надзвичайно сильними стрес-факторами, які виснажують людину і фізично, і психічно та потребують дієвої державної і медичної допомоги.

Nationalism, Ideology, and the Cold War Space Race
Authors: Kallen Samantha
Published: May 2019

One of the most enduring legacies of the Cold War period was the rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States. This is especially true if one considers the ‘Space Race,’ of the mid 1950s-1960s, where each country tried to out-do the other in all manner of space technology. This paper, while acknowledging the importance held by military and scientific goals, argues that it was matters of nationalism and prestige that provided the biggest motivation for the creation of new space technologies during this time.

The Viennese obsession with sex at the fin-de-siècle was vividly expressed in the artworks of Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele. Their depictions of women demonstrated their fascination with and fear of female sexual pleasure and desire, reflecting a wider societal anxiety and erotic fixation. This paper will analyse selected paintings and drawings by both Klimt and Schiele to explore this dynamic of 'erotic neurasthenia.'
Confused Planning: The Clash Between Freeways, Parkland Preservation And LRT In Mid-20th Century Edmonton
Authors: Kruper Cole
Published: May 2019

Much of Edmonton’s municipal past lacked any overarching development plan. Once such absentee municipal planning gave way to more concrete forms of municipal planning in terms of shaping the urban environment, conflicting goals soon emerged. Between 1949 and the early 1980s a conflict in planning goals within both the Edmonton District Planning Commission and the City of Edmonton, at this time governed with a commission board became apparent. Often this conflict played out in Edmonton’s river valley with competing visions of preservation and freeway construction. River valley neighborhoods were threatened with land acquisition policies that viewed the river valley as the sole domain of parkland. Concurrently, those neighborhoods and much of the river valley were also threatened by the Metropolitan Edmonton Transportation Study (METS). Citizen engagement in an otherwise politically apathetic city (prior to this) led to its demise, although the threat of large-scale removal of river valley parks and homes throughout the city loomed for some time. The period between 1949 and 1983 represents a period in Edmonton’s history where environmental protection policy clashed with transportation policy that advocated for the wholesale destruction of the river valley and countless homes. It is this conflict that led to increased political awareness that directly contributed to the demise of the METS scheme and gave rise to renewed support for river valley protection while making rapid transit a possibility for Edmonton.

Las plantas producen y emiten compuestos orgánicos volátiles, generalmente son mezclas que están compuestas por terpenos, derivados de ácidos grasos y compuestos aromáticos. Los compuestos orgánicos volátiles sirven a las plantas para: reproducción, atraer polinizadores o dispersores de semillas, como defensa para repeler insectos o detener la colonización por bacterias y hongos fitopatógenos, para atraer enemigos naturales de herbívoros y como mensajeros intraespecíficos e interespecíficos. Las plantas emiten algunos volátiles especialmente cuando las partes vegetativas se exponen a estimulo abiótico o biótico. Considerando lo antes expuesto, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica, siendo el objetivo del presente trabajo dar a conocer la clasificación de los compuestos orgánicos volátiles de las plantas, describir y señalar las características de las técnicas de extracción e identificación de los compuestos orgánicos volátiles, presentar los avances reportados en la literatura científica acerca de estos compuestos inducidos por insectos y su situación actual en México.

Cryptocurrency as a means of payment and a type of electronic money is found in the most countries of the world in the “grey” zone, and regulators, if not prohibit, then at least do not recommend citizens to invest in such assets. However, the state of science and technology development of blockchain technologies, which are the basis of cryptocurrency, and the state of demand for cryptocurrency in the Ukrainian market are ready to use cryptocurrency. For the effective implementation of cryptocurrency, Ukraine lacks only the normative framework. Developing a regulatory framework in this area will help to bring cryptocurrency markets to stability. The introduction of international experience in the usage of cryptocurrency in Ukraine, the creation of own model of behaviour will be the first step towards building a transparent and understandable cryptocurrency market, which will lead to the development of the economy as a whole.

Authors: Mushynska Natalia , Kniazian Marianna
Published: May 2019

The transformation in the system of business relations in modern times has led to the formation of the economy based on knowledge. Relevant processes place qualitatively new demands to the managerial staff in this system and, consequently, to the technologies of their professional training. Effective usage of innovations in pedagogy for the training of managers becomes one of the fundamental factors in the formation of competitiveness of knowledge economy. The purpose of the paper is to reveal the essential characteristics, generalization and justification of social and pedagogical innovations in the professional training of managers under the conditions of the formation of a knowledge economy. The methodological principles, which the given analysis is based on, include the implementation of a set of universal and special methods of scientific cognition. Results. The role of education is defined as the foundation for the economy based on knowledge. In total, it is possible to distinguish three main areas for optimization of the process of professional and personal development of future managers: expanded implementation to the system of in-class activities forms, methods and technologies that teach to perform practically all managerial functions and actions under different market conditions; implementation to the educational institution of out-of-class forms of practical work that develop market and managerial thinking and other qualities, skills, and abilities; expansion of personality developing space in the educational institution. So, in the context of the knowledge economy formation, important means for the development of managers’ economic knowledge are those that are aimed at studying, analysing the achievements of economic thought, understanding information, and generating their own effective options for management optimization. Based on this, the priority social and pedagogical innovations are: projecting and modelling in management, research, and creative activity. Practical implications. In the project process, a clear formulation of the project’s goals and objectives, development of the final material product (business plan; measures to optimize management of a certain enterprise sector; a set of diagnostic methods for assessing the professional competence of applicants for the position, etc.) were assumed. Modelling allowed developing and exploring models of objects of economic activity, which helped to systematize knowledge about them, to specify their components, to disclose new functions. Research and creative activity allowed students to study at the empirical and theoretical levels in the economic sphere, the laws of its phenomena functioning in the context of their systemic interconnection with the goal of knowledge development about it, generating and implementing effective approaches to solve problems.

The purpose of the article. The article covers the mechanisms of behavioural economics introducing into the state policy of the country. This problem becomes especially relevant in modern conditions as people tend to make unreasonable economic decisions. The purpose of this paper is to research the irrational motives of individuals’ behaviour in making economic decisions and to determine the measures for introducing the mechanisms of behavioural economics in the state policy of Ukraine. Methodology. The survey is based on the analysis of the scientific papers of the following scientists in economics: A. Smith, K. Marks, J. Bentham, M. Weber, J. Schumpeter, A. Marshall, J. Keynes, H. Simon, H. Becker, V. Smith, D. Kahneman, A. Tversky, Richard H. Thaler, G. Akerlof, R. Shiller; on the empirical analysis and on the analysis of the behaviour economic instruments. The objective of the article is the survey of irrational motives of human behaviour during the decision-making process in economic conditions, to determine the influence of the irrational motives on social and economic development and to develop measures and activities for implementation of behavioural economics mechanisms in the state policy. The subject of the article is theoretical and methodological aspects of the behavioural economics mechanisms in the state policy. The results. The research in the article shows and explains the main trends of the behavioural studies in the modern condition, in particular: behavioural finance, behavioural game theory, the problem of making a choice in time, prospect theory. One of the examples of Herding behaviour shown in the article is the peculiarities of behavioural aspects of financial markets. Special attention is given to the “nudge theory” used by the leading countries. Behavioural economics possess the instruments, which maintain the decent living of the population and sustainable social and economic situation in the society. The results of research represent that the behavioural peculiarities of the society together with the interaction with the state policy result in the distrust of the society to the authority’s representatives. Besides, the low-income level of the population leads to the predominance of survival values in the society, while in the highly developed countries, the values of self-expression dominate. It is proposed to implement behavioural economics mechanisms in state policy of Ukraine while making economic decisions. Conclusions. Due to the new trends in economic development such as informatization, and digitalization, new ways of the economic behaviour of the population take place. One of the key aspects is the psychological approach to the decision-making process in the economic environment. Thus, behavioural economics becomes of great importance in modern society.
Más allá del ʻinfierno verdeʼ y del ʻparaíso perdidoʼ
Authors: Pau Stefano
Published: May 2019

The Western view of the Amazon rainforest landscape has been for a long time (and partly still is) functional to the colonial ideology and aimed at its natural resources exploitation. Since the colonial penetration, a whole set of myths was created, which crystallised in two stereotyped and opposed images. On the one hand, the Amazonian landscape as ʻgreen hellʼ; on the other, the forest as the Garden of Eden. This paper will approach the theme of landscape and the relationship between human being and nature through the analysis of two Peruvian novels: Paiche, by César Calvo de Araújo and La virgen del Samiria by Róger Rumrrill, which outline a reflection on environmental problems.
Todo sobre mi hermano
Authors: Fiorani Flavio
Published: May 2019

Che, My brother by Juan Martín Guevara and Armelle Vincent springs from a testimony that embraces family history and big history, biography and self-fiction. Che Guevara’s biography is the narration of a life propelled by a drive for justice. With this book Juan Martín sets his own story in motion, finds the texture of his life and retraces his traumatic past, charting the casual order of his memories. Juan Martín’s memoir reveals the doubling of every autobiographical adventure; it reconstructs Che’s personal journey far from the myth, and inevitably halts in front of the impossibility of transferring such an exemplary life.
Francisca Perujo y sus ediciones mexicanas de Gemelli Careri, Francesco Carletti y Antonio de Morga
Authors: Díez-Canedo Aurora
Published: May 2019

Highlighted here is the historiographical contribution of Francisca Perujo Álvarez, writer, philologist, translator and historian, by way of her academic edition of two books on Italian travellers of the 16th and 17th century (Gemelli Careri and Francesco Carletti), and the work she undertook, in 2007, for the second Mexican edition of Sucesos de las Islas Filipinas by the Sevillian official Antonio de Morga. Seen together, these three volumes confirm today’s accepted view of a first globalisation during the Spanish empire’s expansion and show, through first-hand testimony, not only navigation and commercial routes, product consumption and exchange, but a truly intercultural world where American and Asian local names became assimilated into Spanish, and different kinds of skills and experience shaped the destinies and mobility of people despite the distances and the great risks involved.
Para una periodización de la minificción peruana
Authors: Minardi Giovanna
Published: May 2019

Studies on mini-fiction started during the 1980s. Today this literary genre, previously seen as a literary exception or amusement, has enthusiasts, theorists, practitioners, and thousands of pages dedicated to its analysis. This article examines the current state of Latin American, and Peruvian in particular, mini-fiction and compares three theoretical studies about mini-fiction in Peru by three young Peruvian researchers – Rony Vásquez, Elton Honores and Oscar Gallegos – who propose a periodization of the national mini-fiction which confirms how in the present Peruvian mini-fiction is alive, at a theoretical and pragmatic level.
