Most often male freshwater Prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) exhibits higher growth compared to the female counterpart. The current study has been conducted to evaluate the production performance and the survival rate of mono-sex male freshwater prawn culture compared to mono-sex female and mixed-sex culture. Conjointly the study also appraises the production competence of mono-sex male M. rosenbergii at different stocking densities. The experiment was conducted in two different phases. The first experiment comprised of three treatments, viz. mono sex male (T1), mono sex Female (T2) and both male & female (T3) with the same stocking density (3 in d/m2) and maintaining the sex ratio 100% male and female for T1 and T2, and 50:50 ratio for T3. The second experiment was conducted with all-male prawn (100% male) with three different stockings densities (i.e. 1, 2 and 3 in d/m2 successively as D1, D2 and D3). The results showed that in the first experiment, mono-sex males performed better growth, survival and production than mono-sex females and mixed-sex populations. In the second experiment, the highest individual growth was found to be 57.81±0.12 g in D1, 52.22±0.14 g in D2 and 40.97±0.1g in D3. Similarly, D1 showed the highest survival compared to D2 and D3. In contrast, the highest production (888.05±9.05 kg/ha) was found in D2, followed by D3 (826±42.07 kg/ha) and D1 (496.18±34.86 kg/ha). Hence, this research suggests practicing mono-sex male M. rosenbergii culture at stocking of 2/m2 for accomplishing maximum profits.

Authors: Mamun Tasnim Murad , Chowdhury Sajib , Sumi Nazia Sultana
Published: June 2022

Quality of public health care services is a necessary step in the process of improving health care services. It plays an important role for preventing the overuse, underuse and misuse of health care services and ensuring patient safety. Thus, the study aims to investigate the determinants of satisfactory public health care services in rural Bangladesh. Data are collected from 150 respondents of six upazilas in Khulna and Bagerhat districts who spend at least one day in the upazila health complex for receiving treatment. Quantitative analysis is performed through factor analysis and ordered logistic regression. This study demonstrates that almost three-fourth of the respondents visit hospitals at least 3-4 times in a year, also exerts that almost 70% of the respondents earn/month on an average between BDT 5,001-10,000, whereas nearly 40% of the respondents are compelled to spend almost about BDT 2,001-4,000 for availing medical facilities. Ordered logistic regression demonstrates that, educational status of the respondents, financial & physical access to care and health personnel conduct have positively associated with the respondent level of satisfaction on health care services rendered by public health complexes. Therefore, it is vital to improve the related facilities to increase the satisfaction level. Thus, authors suggest improving the overall structure of rural health complex, ensure availability of essential drugs, increase the financial support to government or initiate community-based health insurance to reduce the out of pocket health expenditure to increase the patient satisfaction level.

Published: June 2022

For growing cities, solid waste management is a serious concern, focusing on household waste because it accounts for a significant portion of municipal solid waste. An accurate estimation of the quantity and characteristics of solid waste mixtures from diverse income levels is required for effective city-wide solid waste management planning. The purpose of this study is to assess the production and characteristics of domestic solid waste produced by different socio-economic groups in three wards (no. 17, 23 and 24) of Khulna city. Moreover, various factors that influence the pace of waste production have been critically investigated. The finding suggests that, household waste generation rate ranges from 0.421 to 5.81 kg/day, average of 1.917 kg/day and 0.476 kg/capita/day. The waste composition analysis depicts that kitchen garbage is the most prevalent component. The waste generation rate has a positive relationship with income level and household size. Nonetheless, the findings and proposed essential steps of this study would be beneficial in assisting policymakers in refining plans for controlling the municipal waste effectively.

The ENABLE program is a European intervention designed to increase student emotional resilience and management of social relationships. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of social and emotional learning (SEL) and a combination of SEL with peer support (SEL+peer support) in a sample of 508 Greek early adolescents, between the ages of 11 to 14 by means of anonymous self-report questionnaires. Assessments were conducted prior to and after the 3-month piloting of the intervention, and indicated that overall students had high baseline social and emotional skills, as well as prosocial attitudes regarding bullying. The intervention improved problem-solving skills, and increased school satisfaction, as well as self-control and emotional awareness. After the intervention, students were more likely to report that they would seek help or report situations of bullying. Overall, this was the first study combining SEL with peer support in Greek primary and secondary schools, with promising results for the combined effectiveness of the programs.
(Un-)affordability of Homes From a Resident’s Point of View in Two Mid-Sized Canadian Cities 30 Years Apart
Authors: Phipps Alan G.
Published: June 2022

A new theoretical criterion of housing affordability is defined as a mismatch between where a resident likes to live if preferences are unconstrained, and where they can afford to live if preferences are budget constrained. This study theorizes and quantifies the compensatory amounts of money to be spent to reduce these mismatches by acquiring unconstrained most preferred attributes’ levels of homes. Compensatory amounts are quantified with the predicted implicit prices of almost 3,000 sold single-detached(-like) homes in each of two mid-sized Canadian cities. The analysis predicts approximately one-half of up to 74 respondents in each city in 1987 and 2020 will experience a residential mismatch if they choose their budget-constrained most preferred home. Unaffordable compensatory expenditures are especially predicted for non-managerial or professional workers if they want to afford their unconstrained most preferred attributes’ levels of house type and size, house age and exterior finish, basement condition and home renovations, and lot size and garage. Moreover, average predicted compensatory expenditures exceed loans or grants in four past and current public policies in Canada for subsidizing prices of these four attributes or increasing the wealth of homebuyers.
The Influence of Trade Facilitation on the Depth and Breadth of China's Agricultural Exports: Empirical Evidence Based on RCEP Countries
Authors: Xie Guo-e , Zhu Yi-qiu
Published: June 2022

This article analyzes how trade facilitation influence China’s agricultural exports to RCEP partners. Based on the data of the World Economic Forum Global Competitiveness Report and principal component analysis, we constructs a 14 index system to measure trade facilitation. Based on the export data from 2011 to 2019, the extended gravity model is used to estimate the relationship between trade facilitation and the depth and breadth of China's agricultural exports. The study shows that improving the trade facilitation of RCEP partners can significantly enhance the depth of China's agricultural exports. Specifically, the trade openness, e-commerce and financial environment of importing countries have a significant positive impact on the depth and breadth of exports. Another important finding is that China's trade facilitation has played a more active role in the depth and breadth of exports. Its infrastructure quality, e-commerce and financial environment can greatly promote China's agricultural exports.
Formulation and Implementation of Reproductive Health Policies in Ghana: Analysis of the Views of Key Community Leaders and State Technocrats
Authors: Ayittey Hanny-Sherry
Published: June 2022

This qualitative study evaluated the views of ten elites concerning their roles and views in the formulation and implementation of reproductive health (RH) policies in Ghana. The elites comprised of politicians, State policy technocrats, community leaders including a Traditional Chief; the group of elites also included representatives from all three major religions in Ghana: African traditional religions, Christianity and Islam. The results of the study indicated both positive and negative impacts of RH policies on the improvement of the economic welfare of individuals and small owner businesses. A major finding was the role of awareness in the acceptability of RH policies related to the birth control (BC) methods and products and contraceptives. The influence of the affordability of BC products and contraceptives was a common point of agreement of the ten elite people. The limited numbers of proper family planning clinics and specialist clinics in Ghana were seen to be a hindrance towards the acceptance of RH policies related to the use of BC products and contraceptives. The elites agreed that the Ghanaian society was a conservative one and this presented a general difficulty concerning the discussion of family planning and sexual matters. While there was a consensus on the role of awareness in increasing the acceptance and use of BC products and contraceptives, there was some disagreement of the proper role of non-governmental organizations, including religious organizations, in creating awareness of BC products and contraceptives in the community.

The increase in the price of fuel oil, especially Pertamax, which was officially announced on April 1, 2022, raised various questions in the community. However, behind all the questions regarding the reason for the government to increase the price of fuel oil, the government has considered the decision carefully so that the policy that has been taken cannot be misdirected or detrimental to the community. By using the literature method, the author finds that the government's decision to consider the increasingly scarce oil resources and the needs of the community must also be met, so the policy of making Pertalite a subsidized fuel and increasing the price of Pertamax is correct.
Extension Stakeholder Engagement: An Exploration of Two Cases Exemplifying 21st Century Adaptions
Authors: French Charles , Morse George
Published: June 2022

Over the past 100 years, a number of societal trends have influenced how Cooperative Extension engages public audiences in its outreach and education efforts. These trends include rapid evolution in communication technology, greater specialization of Land-Grant University faculty, and diversification of funding sources. In response, Extension organizations have adapted their engagement approach, incorporated new technologies, modified their organizational structures, and even expanded the notion of public stakeholders to include funders, program nonparticipants, and others. This article explores the implications for future Extension efforts using two case studies—one which explores how a community visioning program incorporated new ways of engaging local audiences, and another which explores how an Extension business retention program used participatory action research and educational organizing approaches to strengthen participation in a research-based program.

Published: June 2022

The current study examined program outcomes for an understudied population of Relationship Education (RE) participants: incarcerated men and women. In addition to relationship functioning, we examined a number of individual and parenting outcomes which had not previously been explored. In a sample of 453 adult inmates, we found improvements in (a) trust, (b) confidence in the relationship, (c) intimacy, (d) individual empowerment, (e) conflict management, (f) help-seeking attitudes, (g) self-esteem, (h) depression, (i) global life stress, (j) faulty relationship beliefs, and (k) parenting efficacy. Tests of moderation by gender and race indicated minimal differences in change patterns between groups; however, we found a significant time by gender interaction on intimacy and a time by race interaction on parenting efficacy. Implications for research and practice are presented.

Published: June 2022

Development of Cooperative Extension programs depends upon the skills and abilities of competent Extension professionals. The most effective manner of building program development competencies in these Extension professionals is through professional development. A wide variety of competencies are necessary for Extension professionals to develop programs, including strong interpersonal skills. Differences exist between the professional development efforts of Extension institutions and are highlighted herein. Major challenges to delivery of professional development include time and budget, but these can be overcome through planning and innovation and use of online or hybrid methods. Professional development for program development is essential to furthering Extension’s mission, especially during times of rapid change.
Connecting the Dots: Improving Extension Program Planning with Program Umbrella Models
Authors: Arnold Mary E.
Published: June 2022

This paper builds on the Extension program planning framework presented by Seevers, Graham, Gamon, and Conklin (1997) in an effort to enhance and improve program planning in Extension. Using the 4-H Youth Development Program as an example, the paper considers the importance of program theory of change and theory of action in program planning, and the need for the translation of research into practice in order to elucidate the theory. In addition, the paper explores the utility of “umbrella” program models, based on sound theory and translated research, for guiding and supporting the program planning efforts of local Extension professionals. Umbrella program models have important implications for the renewed utility of the Seevers et al. (1997) framework, as well as Extension program planning training needs. Implications that extend beyond the 4-H Youth Development Program to other Extension program areas are explored as well.

Published: June 2022

The Latino community continues to grow at an increasing rate. Latinos have become the “majority-minority,” and by 2043, minorities will be the majority in the United States with Latinos as the largest ethnic minority group. The lack of targeted programming to ethnically diverse audiences is a growing concern for many organizations. This article describes research-based strategies and best practices for providing culturally appropriate Extension programs to the Latino community through community-based programs. This is illustrated through examples incorporated into three community-based programs offered in Southwest Idaho, Southeast Oregon, and Southwest Washington. The objective is to discuss the value of each key component when providing services to the Latino community; describe what the research indicates; and offer practical applications for educators, staff, and other professionals to expand outreach and engagement efforts to the Latino population. Implications for professionals working with the Latino community are discussed.

Published: June 2022

The pandemic's massive impact on schools has pushed teachers and students to migrate online and affected students' class engagement. With this, the action research aimed to 1) analyze the previous experiences of the students with other interactive applications, 2) determine if Flipgrid interactive options are an intervention for improving students' engagement, and 3) evaluate the experiences of the students in using Flipgrid interactive options in asynchronous learning. The research used a practical action research design that utilizes mixed methods to address the study's problem and was conducted at Xavier University – Junior High School in the Philippines. To achieve the desired results, the researchers first gave the interactive questionnaire, followed by a survey questionnaire before and after the implementation of the proposed intervention, and conducted a focus group discussion to gather more in-depth information. Twenty respondents took the pre-test, and 17 took the post-test. The results of the data from the statistics and information gathered during the focus group discussion show that students are favorable of the features of Flipgrid. There is also a highly significant difference between the pre-test and post-test results, which means that the proposed intervention, comment section, and view counts effectively alleviate the challenge of students' engagement in asynchronous learning. Based on the perceived response from the participants, Flipgrid, in general, is a great tool to boost students' engagement. Thus, the researchers recommend that teachers maximize the use of Flipgrid for asynchronous sessions.
Utilization of some non-flint lithic raw materials in the Palaeolithic in the Cserhát Mountains and the Galga Valley (Northern Hungary)
Authors: Attila Péntek
Published: June 2022

The systematic field surveys in the area of the Cserhát Mountains and the Galga Valley had begun after the excavations of the year 1992. The primary target was to localize new Palaeolithic sites; the secondary one was to find new possible raw material sources. The first results regarding the raw material sources were published in a paper dealing with the utilization of nummulitic chert in the Middle Palaeolithic (Markó & Kázmér 2004). This paper was followed by a detailed review of András Markó in the Hungarian language on the limnic quartzite occurrences in the Cserhát Mountains (Markó 2005). In the last one and a half-decade, primarily from point of some non-flint raw materials, such as andesite, nummulitic chert, petrified wood, quartzite and siliceous pebble, several new results have been achieved. In the following summary, besides the geological occurrences, the archaeological utilization of these raw materials will be discussed as well. The results cannot be regarded as complete, neither concerning Nógrád County, nor Pest County. Implicitly the field surveys could not have been extended those parts of the Cserhát Mountains, which are either wooded or agriculturally not cultivated. The approximate size of the studied area is 1,200 km2.

Published: June 2022

Introduction. Gastric perforation in newborns is a polyetiological, severe disease that combines a number of destructive conditions, such as: isolated pinpoint perforations, wall necrosis and gastric rupture. The first description of this pathology in a premature infant was made by Siebold in 1825, and only in 1968, G. Reams reported a case of successful diagnosis and surgical correction of this disease. Currently, the frequency of gastric perforation occurs from 1 to 6 cases per 30 thousand live births, and the mortality rate is within 40–70%.In all infants, disorders in the integrity of stomach wall can be divided into iatrogenic and “idiopathic” which are caused, in most cases, by intrauterine hypoxia. Therefore, while examining such patients, differential diagnostics between gastric perforation and necrotizing enterocolitis is often made.Clinical case. The authors present their experience in diagnosing and treating segmental necrosis of the stomach and duodenum outlet in a child with an extremely low body weight of 800 gr. Predisposing factors in the antenatal period were considered to be manifestations of hereditary thrombophilia, severe preeclampsia, placental insufficiency, and intrauterine growth retardation. As far as the discussed pathology had a subacute course, clinical changes were registered only on the 21st day of infant’s life, when pneumoperitoneum was detected at the plain X-ray image. When the patient’s condition was stabilized, median laparotomy was performed, at which radial necrosis with detachment in the gastroduodenal junction was seen. An end-to-end gastroduodenoanastomosis was put at the defect zone. In the postoperative period, the course was complicated with bronchopulmonary dysplasia, oblique femoral fracture with angular fragment displacement because of premature osteopenia as well as cholestatic hepatitis. The patient was discharged from the hospital in satisfactory condition in 80 days.Conclusions. Thus, better understanding of specific features in the clinical picture of the discussed pathology and of the mechanisms of perforation development in hollow organs of the abdominal cavity will reduce the number of complications and adverse outcomes in patients with extremely low body weight.

The Innovation Management Modelling in the Water Sector in the United Arab Emirates: A Mixed-Methods Study
Authors: Alshaali Saeed Khalifa , AlYammahi Somayyah Abdulla
Published: June 2022

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is encountering a scarcity of water resources. It is counting on innovation management to alleviate the situation. In that context, there is a need for a managerial framework for this subject. Therefore, the aim of the current study is to build up an innovative managerial model. To establish this model, we applied a convergent, parallel, mixed-methods design. The study participants (n = 42) consisted mostly of leaders and experts working for the main water institutions. We analysed the quantitative method via partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM), a SmartPLS software. Qualitative method procedures were conducted starting from coding, categorising, obtaining themes, and lastly, the establishment of grounded theory. We obtained two rigid inputs (quantitative and qualitative models) for the last phase (mixed-methods analysis). The quantitative findings revealed a significant and robust relationship (t value = 26.6, p = 0.000, coefficient = 0.888, R2 = 0.788). The qualitative findings also produced a steady grounded theory. Both quantitative and qualitative models were crossed according to the ‘convergence coding matrix’ and ‘triangulation analysis protocol’. Ultimately, we built a holistic framework named ‘the UAE water innovation model’, consisting of 12 components (meta-themes). This model should be adopted as the main guide for innovation management and strategy in water public sector institutions. Globally, this model could be a significant contribution, and it would be applicable to any country in the world with the same arid environment as the UAE.

ABSTRAK

 

Skizofrenia merupakan gangguan jiwa berat yang angka kejadiannya meningkat setiap tahun dan cenderung bersifat kronis sehingga memerlukan perawatan jangka panjang. Penderita skizofrenia sering tidak patuh minum obat. Dukungan keluarga dapat mempengaruhi kepatuhan minum obat pasien skizofrenia. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui hubungan dukungan keluarga dengan kepatuhan minum obat pasien skizofrenia di Poliklinik Rumah Sakit Jiwa Prof. HB. Saanin Padang Tahun 2019. Desain penelitian adalah deskriptif analitik dengan pendekatan cross-sectional, dengan sampel sebanyak 98 keluarga inti pasien skizofrenia yang membawa pasien kontrol ke Poliklinik Rumah Sakit Jiwa Prof. HB. Saanin Padang. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah kuisioner dukungan keluarga dan kuisioner Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS). Hasil penelitian didapatkan hampir setengah responden (47,0%) memberikan dukungan yang buruk sehingga sebagian besar pasien (57,4%) kepatuhan minum obatnya rendah. Hasil uji statistik chi square menunjukan ada hubungan yang bermakna antara dukungan keluarga dengan kepatuhan minum obat pasien skizofrenia (p=0,000). Dukungan keluarga yang buruk dapat menyebabkan kepatuhan minum obat pasien semakin rendah. Berdasarkan hal ini, maka perlu diberikan penyuluhan keperawatan kepada keluarga mengenai dukungan keluarga dan perawatan pasien skizofrenia agar kepatuhan minum obat semakin tinggi.

SILENCED VOICES: HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES IN PAKISTAN
Authors: Asim Muhammad
Published: June 2022

The number of children with disabilities is increasing and their healthcare needs are one of the most ignored areas of Pakistan’s health care system. These children face multiple challenges to receiving needed healthcare services that include attitudinal, physical, policy, and programmatic barriers. The commitment to leaving no one behind demands that children with disabilities (CWD) receive inclusive access to the healthcare system. Moreover, the specific healthcare needs of CWD are often overlooked due to lack of research, evidence, and policy measures. It is suggested that an inclusive healthcare system at primary level healthcare facilities should be implemented to improve health outcomes of CWD.
Galería del monstruo en la obra de Josep Maria Beà: el collage como poética
Authors: Trabado Cabado José Manuel
Published: June 2022

Los monstruos han sido un personaje prototípico en la ficción popular y en los cómics. En las revistas españolas publicadas a lo largo de los años 70 y 80, los monstruos desarrollaron su seducción visual innata asociada a un tratamiento erótico. En este contexto Josep María Beà crea una obra muy singular. Estas páginas pretenden estudiar los dos tipos de monstruo que Beà construye, cada con sus propios referentes: Lovecraft y Max Ernst. Ambos modelos se combinan en una especie de collage que afecta tanto a nivel textual como gráfico en la historia de dos páginas titulada «Ernst Lovecraft» publicada en la revista Zona 84. El montaje que tiene lugar en esta historia puede concebirse como un tipo de poética en la que Beà intenta disolver las fronteras entre la cultura de masas derivada de los modelos literarios (Lovecraft) y las prácticas artísticas de Vanguardia (Max Ernst).
Ocultas en la niebla: escritoras chilenas de lo fantástico en el siglo XX
Authors: Cortés Correa Macarena
Published: June 2022

En el presente artículo se aborda un corpus de relatos fantásticos de escritoras chilenas del siglo XX (Ilda Cádiz, Elena Aldunate y Myriam Phillips) para analizar el lugar que ocupa este cuerpo literario en el canon chileno y en lo fantástico andino. Finalmente, se ofrece un análisis de los relatos fantásticos desde una perspectiva feminista centrada en el cuerpo, y particularmente, en la mirada de la mujer, que en los relatos aparece como detonante del hecho sobrenatural, y por ende, de la irrupción de lo fantástico.

As physician leaders, we are best suited to provide the optimal (not the only) insights on evolving the industry to improve care for people by using more cost-effective, safer, higher-quality, and efficient strategies. But the healthcare industry playing field makes it complicated, and as physician leaders, we must keep an eye on its shifting sets of issues and influences.
Lessons Learned in the Transformation of a Multispecialty Medical Group to a Management Services Organization Supporting Multiple Service Lines
Authors: Reed H Lester , Hoyt Chad , Hardison Jeremy , Madril Dani
Published: June 2022

A 30% growth of providers within the multispecialty Centra Medical Group’s health system was associated with increasing operational costs, inefficiencies of incentivized production, and poor alignment around the Quadruple Aim. Clinical services and management services were associated with redundancy and unclear roles and responsibilities. As the services grew quickly in scale, they required more autonomy, accountability, and self-governance, necessitating a change in the operating model. The service line model (SL) was selected as an efficient system for delivering cost-effective, patient-centered, disease-specific care when organized and led effectively. Key lessons with examples of specific actions and outcomes, as well as processes followed, are shared. Preliminary financial results of a $4M in savings from the initial deployment of four of the SLs are also discussed.
A inovação frugal em incubadoras de empresas: compreensão e perspectivas sob o ponto de vista dos gestores
Authors: Pellin Alecxandro , Meneghatti Marcelo Roger , Lago Sandra Mara Stocker
Published: June 2022

The Objective of the study: To identify incubator managers' understanding and perspectives on the phenomenon of frugal innovation in these institutions.Methodology/approach: This is a qualitative research of exploratory nature, with data collection carried out through semi-structured interviews. The interview transcripts were analyzed using categorization and Similarity Analysis using the Iramuteq software.Originality/Relevance: Given the importance of frugal innovation and its impact on product and service development, it is worth studying this phenomenon in environments that naturally disseminate innovation, since there are still questions to be explored.Main results: The results demonstrate that the term frugal is not used in the day-to-day incubators, however, it was verified the existence of the practice of frugal innovation in these environments. It is concluded that there is a prevalence of a positive view of managers about this type of innovation and that the practice of frugal innovation in the development of products and services is considered a competitive advantage for the incubated ventures.Theoretical and methodological contributions: Contributes to a future research agenda with the themes: of frugal innovation practices; Mobilizing frugal innovation by the lack of resources and; Frugal innovation through apps in technology incubators.Contributions to management: This research allows incubator managers to understand the aspects involving the theme so that they can develop strategic actions for their incubators using frugal innovation.
Initial actions of the Brazilian regional innovation ecosystem against the COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Miranda Junior Newton Da Silva , Viana Luiz Fernando Câmara , Carneiro Dayse Karenine de Oliveira , Filgueiras Renan Costa , Goulart Gislayne Da Silva
Published: June 2022

Objective: We have analyzed Brazil’s initial COVID-19 combat actions by the regional innovation ecosystem actors.Methodology/approach: This is a descriptive and qualitative study using documentary research. In total, 471 reports collected via web scraping were submitted to content analysis (using a codebook and intercoder test) and correspondence analysis.Originality/relevance: From an innovation ecosystem perspective, this study fulfills an identified need to understand how different actors have proposed initial solutions to the COVID-19 pandemic, considering different geographic regions.Main results: According to the seminal literature, in the more economically and socially favored regions, the government-industry dyadic model was corroborated, while in the less favored regions, the most innovative actors were universities and society. Our results have not shown the quintuple helix’s performance, which leads us to ponder the use of this model in crises. Furthermore, although the quadruple helix model was observed in our analyses, in the Brazilian geographic regions the helices were not designed in a transversal way.Theoretical contributions: We propose that the geography of a pandemic combat occurs unevenly by the innovation ecosystem actors. Moreover, the helices ordering refers to the theoretical development process and not to the complementarity of the role between actors.Practical implications: This article highlights the need for integrated management of the innovation ecosystem’s initial actions in a pandemic, preventing regions from being neglected, especially those with lower levels of wealth or quality of life.

Att bereda vägen för en feministisk praktik
Authors: Nye Andrea
Published: June 2022

Det är som existentialist som Simone de Beauvoir skriver Det andra könet. De sätt som hon senare reviderar sin bindning till den existentialistiska teorin för att kunna bli trogen sina feministiska insikter, förebådar, enligt Andrea Nye, nya utvecklingslinjer inom feministisk etik och kunskapsteori.
Relativism och realism i feministisk vetenskapsfilosofi
Authors: Foss-Fridlizius Rita
Published: June 2022

Den feministiska vetenskapsfilosofiska diskussionen har länge rört sig kring kunskapsteorin och kring polerna objektivism och relativism. Detta innebär en olycklig låsning som bl a kan studeras i Sandra Hardings s k instabilitetstes, hävdar Rita Foss-Fridlizius, som i stället föreslår en realistisk, vetenskapsfilosofisk position.
Institutionaliserad heterosexualitet och undersökning av könssystem
Authors: Liljeström Marianne
Published: June 2022

Hur ska man förstå det ständiga reproducerandet av könsojämlikheten? Marianne Liljeström menar att man måste undersöka samhällets sexuella struktur, den institutionaliserade heterosexualiteten. Denna utgör enligt henne ett ideologiskt-politiskt system som återskapar manlig dominans, bl a genom »erotisering av kvinnoförtrycket».
Bortom fallis

Plädering för en feministisk rättsteori
Authors: Mackinnon Catharine A
Published: June 2022

Lagarna återspeglar ett samhälles mansdominans och upprätthåller de sociala skillnaderna mellan könen, menar Catharine A MacKinnon. Är det då möjligt att utforma lagarna på kvinnors villkor? Ja, svarar hon, men en feministisk rättsteori kräver förändring, en ny relation mellan verklighet och lag.
Strukturell livsformsanalys - kvinnoliv och motsatt riktade villkor
Authors: Rahbek Christensen Lone
Published: June 2022

Livsformsanalys ger möjlighet att se samhället som innehållande flera kulturer (livsformer), vilka har olika perspektiv på omvärlden. Dessa olika kulturer kräver också olika villkor, menar Lone Rahbek Christensen. Att se dessa olika perspektiv och villkor, förhindrar den etnocentrism som finns såväl i vardagslivet som i forskning och politisk verksamhet.
