The paper presents the equations of the oscillations of seismic-protected object located on the Yu. D. Cherepinsky kinematic support obtained using the Lagrange 1-st kind method. Previously, these equations were obtained by a number of authors using the Lagrange 2-nd kind method. Using the Lagrange1st kind method allows giving the components of the equations a transparent physical meaning. The support model used assumes that the rolling surface of the support, as well as the support itself, remain rigid during oscillations. With small oscillations, the obtained equation can be reduced to the linear one with accuracy to the second order terms of small motion relocations and velocity.The equation presenting the Yu. D. Cherepinsky support is formed as a stochastic model. External loads are set in the form of an ensemble of random seismic impacts. It is shown that during the design analysis, situations are established when the Yu. D. Cherepinsky kinematic supports are effective seismic protection.

TAJIKISTAN: AN EVALUATION OF TERRORISM AND COUNTER-TERRORISM POLICIES SINCE INDEPENDENCE
Authors:   Centre for Russian and Central Asian Studies, School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delh, CHUTIA Tribedi
Published: May 2022

Tajikistan, a country overloaded with the horriϐic memory of bloody civil war, an increasingly devastated economy, and the ineradicable misfortune of having long borders with Afghanistan and Uzbekistan, has been reigning consistently by the Emomali Rahmon’s regime for three decades with wide-scale surveillance and draconian acts. Taking advantage of the weak governance, poor military infrastructure and porous border, Islamic extremists and cross border terrorist groups have also been seen persistently deepening their inϐluence in the region either by perpetrating a series of terrorist activities in the terrain or joining Tajik national into their organizations. This paper presents a detailed analysis of how and to what extent terrorism has posed security threats to Tajikistan through examining the Global Terrorism Database and RAND database that includes the numbers and intensity of the terrorist incidents in the territory since independence. It systematically analyses the prominent terrorist groups and, more particularly, the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL), which has widened its network in the region. The paper also makes a sincere effort to evaluate the counter-terrorism acts adopted and implemented by Tajikistan. Moreover, the article also examines how the Tajik’s authority constructs state discourse on terrorism by delegitimising social acceptance of the terrorist on the one hand and projecting the state as the severe victim of terrorism on the other. Keywords: Terrorism, Tajikistan, Terrorist Attacks, Counter-terrorism Act, Taliban
ZIMBABWE: CRITIQUING THE CHALLENGES OF CULTURAL AND RELIGIOUS CONCEPTS SUCH AS UBUNTU AND THE “FORGIVE AND FORGET” APPROACH TO THE GUKURAHUNDI GENOCIDE
Authors:   University of Pretoria, NDHLOVU Alfred
Published: May 2022

This article explores the challenges which emanate from the discourse of reconciliation in Zimbabwe as it relates to the Gukurahundi atrocities of the post-independence Zimbabwean era. Since most of the efforts to address this nation’s ugly past have been inϐluenced mainly by cultural (African) and religious (Christian) concepts such as the Bantu concept of Ubuntu and the Christian religion approach to conϐlict resolution which is based on the “forgive and forget” concept, this article will critique these concepts, demonstrating their unviability in bringing reconciliation in Zimbabwe. The article argues that without legal frameworks which can facilitate justice as a primary vehicle to reconciliation, the cultural and religious approaches may not make much impact in reconciliation efforts in Zimbabwe. For instance, it is not clear how the cultural concept of Ubuntu/ Unhu should be implemented to establish a formal and structured way of dealing with the issue of Gukurahundi. Among other issues of concern, the “forgive and forget” approach also poses its own problems, one of them being a too simple and casual approach to a much disturbing issue which has affected thousands of lives up to this day. With the aid of an example of how the post-World War II West Germany under the leadership of Willy Brandt addressed the issue of reconciliation and the history of holocaust, this article argues that justice should be the primary vehicle of the transition to reconciliation. Keywords: Gukurahundi, Zimbabwe, Ubuntu, conflict resolution

Rohingya, an ethnic minority group in the Rakhine state of Myanmar, has been levelled as one of the most persecuted ethnic groups in contemporary time. For the last five decades, they have been undergoing systematic torture ranging from deprivation of citizenship to mass killing and forceful eviction from their inhabitants. The army of Myanmar spearheads this persecution, which is deemed as genocidal. However, the engagement of radical Buddhist groups and support from the local Burmese population worsened the situation. Along with army inter-vention and ethnic differences, some economic and geostrategic question is highlighted behind this inhuman situation. But Myanmar consists of more than 100 ethnic groups, and there are other similar areas with similar economic and geostrategic importance. Though there are several instances of conflict in some of those areas, they are almost unparalleled comparing that of the Rakhine state. Having acknowledged the multiple genealogies of this conflict, this paper focuses more on the state/nation building process of Myanmar to understand the exceptionalism of Rohingya persecution. We want to argue that rather than ethnic tension or geostrategic interest, the nation/state-building of Myanmar in different phases of its history can put more light on the unique suffering of the Rohingya population in Myanmar. Analyzing the key historical transition of Myanmar, we attempt to trace the gradual exclusivity of the Rohingya people in the evolution of State manufactured discourse on the question of nation and their deliberate enactment of speciϐic identity while alienating the other. Keywords: Rohingya, Myanmar, Nationalism, Identity, State/Nation-Building.

Published: May 2022

Interest and enthusiasm are internal factors known to an extent to have an influence toward learning in general. This study aims at checking these three variables relationship: interest, enthusiasm, and English achievement.  It was conducted in Sungai Liat Regency, Bangka Belitung Islands, Indonesia, in a state senior high school which provided 70 students to be the sample of this study from the population of 183 students in the school. The instruments used were: Interest and Enthusiasm Questionnaire and Students’ English score documentation. The data collected using the questionnaire were divided into two parts: interest and enthusiasm. Both data were analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient to see the association of interest toward enthusiasm. Furthermore, data from each one of the two variables and combined data from both variables were also analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient to find out how both variables as relate toward English achievement. The results show that interest in learning English had a strong significant association toward enthusiasm (r(70)=.77, p=0.00).  Furthermore, both interest and enthusiasm had a significant association toward English achievement (respectively: r(70)=.40, p=0.001; r(70)=.24, p=0.046).  Moreover, the combination of both interest and enthusiasm also showed a strong association toward English achievement (r(70)=.343, p=0.004). This study also provided some implications and recommendations for further research.

Authors: Molina Javier Paniagua , Gómez Sergio Ulate , Thompson Johanna Solórzano , Navarro David Barboza
Published: May 2022

In Costa Rica, a land tax valuation model provided by the Technical Standardization Body (ONT) of the Ministry of Finance is used. This model considers homogeneous areas that include properties with similar characteristics and review factors that have not been recently updated. The objective of this article is to determine the effect of the distance to the train station and mobile coverage on the value of land in Oreamuno, Costa Rica, as a proposal to be included in the mass valuation model of the ONT. A multiple regression econometric model was used to establish the functional relationship between the value of the property and its characteristics, through the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method, using 10 variables applied to 200 references initially. The results allow demonstrating that other variables such as “Distance to the train station” and “Mobile coverage” are representative for determining the value of properties, in addition to those commonly used by the ONT model. The research allows concluding that the land valuation models should be updated periodically and should include variables related to improvements in technology and access roads, since these increase the market value of properties and improve the social development of localities in study.
Assessing the risks in food processing to a healthy living environment
Authors: Mijanović Krsto
Published: May 2022

One of the most important environmental factors, which affects the environment of a healthy life is diet. About 75% of new diseases that have occurred since 2000 in the population of Bosnia and Herzegovina have come from animals or products of animal origin. So-called zoonoses are diseases that can be transmitted from animals to humans most often through food. In addition to zoonoses, contamination of soil, water, air and plants also affects, to a large extent, directly or indirectly the environment of a healthy life. Soil, air, water and plants can be contaminated with pollutants such as heavy metals in the soil or dangerous substances that produce certain types of mushrooms, all of which are transferred in many ways to food production processes. The research define the characteristics of a healthy living environment complemented with healthy food, then explain and demonstrate, on appropriate examples, what are the hazards or hazardous places in food production and show how to reduce the likelihood of their occurrence using the standard and applicable regulations.

Published: May 2022

Introduction: Increased urinary podocalyxin, a surrogate marker of podocyte detachment, has been shown in preeclampsia and eclampsia, but there is a paucity of data of the effect of normal pregnancy on its urinary excretion. We aimed to describe these changes in this pilot study.

Methods: Urine podocalyxin levels were measured in 115 pregnant women. Of these, 12 women were in the second trimester of gestation, 57 in the third trimester and 46 women were in labor.

Results: The median [IQR] urinary podocalyxin levels were 0.81 [0.27, 3.68], 0.92 [0.44, 5.49] and 64.7 [30.5, 106.3] ng/mg creatinine in the second trimester, third trimester, and during labor, respectively (p<0.0001). Patients with hematuria during labor had higher levels of urinary podocalyxin (128.6 [79.8, 169.6] ng/mg creatinine. There was a moderate correlation between gestational age and urinary podocalyxin levels (r=0.63, p<0.0001).

Conclusion: Urinary podocalyxin levels were low in normal pregnancies and increased significantly during labor and with hematuria.

Published: May 2022

Iraqi western desert is characterized by a widespread karst phenomenon and caves. Euphrates formation (Lower Miocene) includes enormous sinkholes and cavities within carbonate rocks that usually cause severe damages to any kind of engineering facilities built over it. 3D resistivity imaging techniques were used in detecting this kind of cavities in complicated lithology. The 3D view was fulfilled by collating seven 2D imaging lines. The 2D imaging survey was carried out by Dipole-dipole array with (n) factor and electrode spacing (a) of 6 and 2m respectively. The horizontal slices of the 3D models give a good subsurface picture. There are many caves in all directions (x, y, z). They reveal many small caves near the surface. These caves are clearly shown as points with highly variable resistivity values in slices of depths 0.80 m, 1.72 m, 2.78 m, and 3.99 m. The comparison between standard Least-square and robust constrain methods appeared that the inverse model produced by the robust constrain method has sharper and straighter boundaries. The results of both the two-dimensional and the three-dimensional resistive imaging models deal with almost the same spread of subsurface caves in the study area and show a high amount in number, especially in the upper part, white in color oolitic limestone, the second member of Euphrates Formation,  of 3.8-8m depth. 2D and 3D resistivity imaging values have Standard Roof-mean square (RMS) error for large inverted models, this confirms that the study area is of high inhomogeneity. This heterogeneity resulted in a large variation in the resistivity of the rock component in addition to the large spread of caves near the surface.

Published: May 2022

In this study, we present different methods of estimating fuzzy reliability of a two-parameter Rayleigh distribution via the maximum likelihood estimator, median first-order statistics estimator, quartile estimator, L-moment estimator, and mixed Thompson-type estimator. The mean-square error MSE as a measurement for comparing the considered methods using simulation through different values for the parameters and unalike sample sizes is used. The results of simulation show that the fuzziness values are better than the real values for all sample sizes, as well as  the fuzzy reliability at the estimation  of the Maximum likelihood Method, and Mixed Thompson Method perform better than the other methods in the sense of MSE, so that  we recommend to use this type of estimation.
Social Media Application for Recruitment Using Pythagorean Fuzzy
Authors: Krishna Ganapavarapu Leela
Published: May 2022

The growth of social media is now utilized all over the world. In the past several years social media is used to communicate between person for information sharing and entertainment but now social media is also used for the hiring. This work collects data through questionnaire and online dataset on the recruitment process for three social media i.e. Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Pythagorean Fuzzy Relation (PFR) is an expansion of both Fuzzy Relationship and Fuzzy Intuitionist Relationship. The Pythagorean fuzzy set is a modern conceptual structure with greater capacity to deal with imprecision rooted in decision making. So we used this technique to identify a social media containing more number of positive respondents in recruitment process. Consequently, Facebook is proved to have high positive feedback and low negative feedback than others. It is observed that time management factor has high impact as it achieves 0.4583 composite range than others. It is also analyzed that abusive factor should be taken care by social media during recruitment as it occupies high range of negative i.e. 0.20519 composition than others.
Chekhov's tradition in the literature of Lai Shengchuan
Authors: Li Xiang
Published: May 2022

This article is devoted to one of the aspects of the history of interaction between Russian and Chinese literature of the XXI century. This article examines the Chekhov tradition in the dramatic work of the modern Chinese playwright Lai Shengchuan. The subject of the study is the reflection of the Chekhov tradition in the plays of Lai Shengchuan (1954-). The main methods are descriptive, analytical and comparative methods. Many studies consider Chekhov's traditions in the works of Chinese writers of the mid-20th century, such as Lu Xin, Cao Yu, Ba Jin, and Chekhov's influence on the work of Chinese writers of the end of the 20th century and of the 21st century has been poorly studied. The scientific novelty of this work lies in the fact that it provides for the first time a systematic analysis of Chekhov's influence on the literature creation of Lai Shengchuan. Chekhov's tradition in the literature of Lai Shengchuan's is mainly reflected in three aspects - static dramatic artistic characteristics, expressions of the philosophy, as well as the unique concept of comedy. Lai Shengchuan considers Chekhov as his intimate friend and consciously uses Chekhov's dramatic concept and method of creating drama in his work, which is an effective proof of Chekhov's continuous influence on Chinese modern literature, reflects not only a kind of strong protection of the traditional classics of Chinese modern playwrights against the trend of commercial entertainment in current literature, but also their appeal and expectation for the development of a dramaturgical innovative spirit.
The history of the Chinese translation of Chekhov's drama in the XX and XXI centuries.
Authors: Li Xiang
Published: May 2022

Recently, there has been an increase in the interest of scientists in studying foreign translations of Chekhov's dramatic works. There are quite a lot of comparative studies of various Chinese translations of Chekhov's plays in a certain period, but the problem of systematic periodization of Chinese translations of Chekhov's plays has been little studied. The article is devoted to understanding the history of the Chinese translation of Chekhov's plays in the XX and XXI centuries. The subject of the study is various Chinese translations of Chekhov's dramatic works. The purpose of this work is a systematic analysis of the features and causes of the development of the Chinese translation of Chekhov's drama in different periods. Descriptive, analytical and comparative methods are used in the course of the study. For the first time, the work provides a relatively holistic overview of the history of reception and translation of Chekhov's drama in China since the XXI century. In a comparative study of Chinese translations of Chekhov's dramatic works, it is necessary to pay attention to the perception of foreign culture by different translators. We divide the complex history of reception and translation of Chekhov's drama in Chinese culture of the XX - XXI centuries into five stages. With the change of time and the development of theory and the level of translation, the artistic charm of Chekhov's drama is revealed even more. Chekhov's transformation from a typical realist writer into a recognized pioneer of modern drama of the XX century also confirms the complexity, ambiguity and advancement of Chekhov's work. We also need to look at the translations of Chekhov's dramaturgy from an intercultural point of view, timely consider the latest achievements of research in the field of translation of Chekhov's dramaturgy at home and abroad and look for ways of mutual comparison between different cultures in comparing translations.
Bilateral oligodendroglial hamartomas: A rare cause of drug-resistant epilepsy in a pediatric patient
Authors: Munjal Havisha , Mistry Devanshi , Almast Jeevak , Ellika Shehanaz
Published: May 2022

Intractable or drug-resistant seizures in pediatric patients are often secondary to cortical malformations, hamartomas, or mass lesions. Various subtypes of intracerebral hamartomas, associated with seizure disorders, have been described. In this report, we describe a subtype of intracerebral hamartoma associated with intractable epilepsy in a 10-year-old patient. Initial MR imaging demonstrated a mildly expansile, T2/FLAIR hyperintense, T1 isointense, nonenhancing lesion with blurring of the gray-white junction in the left amygdala. Surgical resection was performed, and pathology confirmed oligodendroglial hamartoma. Patient’s seizures recurred after a two-year interval with imaging demonstrating a similar lesion in the right amygdala which in retrospect was also seen on multiple imaging studies. This case report demonstrates the importance of recognizing oligodendroglial hamartomas as a cause of intractable seizures given the imaging findings, distinguishing it from ganglioglioma, dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor, and oligodendroglioma, and the importance of closely looking/searching for contralateral lesions, which has important therapeutic and prognostic implications.

Background:

There are a limited data examining the effects of prior hemorrhage on outcomes after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). The goal of this study was to identify risk factors for arteriovenous malformation (AVM) rupture and compare outcomes, including post-SRS hemorrhage, between patients presenting with ruptured and unruptured AVMs.

Methods:

A retrospective review of consecutive patients undergoing SRS for intracranial AVMs between 2009 and 2019 at our institution was conducted. Chi-square and multivariable logistic regression analyses were utilized to identify patient and AVM factors associated with AVM rupture at presentation and outcomes after SRS including the development of recurrent hemorrhage in both ruptured and unruptured groups.

Results:

Of 210 consecutive patients with intracranial AVMs treated with SRS, 73 patients (34.8%) presented with AVM rupture. Factors associated with AVM rupture included smaller AVM diameter, deep venous drainage, cerebellar location, and the presence of intranidal aneurysms (P < 0.05). In 188 patients with adequate follow-up time (mean 42.7 months), the overall post-SRS hemorrhage rate was 8.5% and was not significantly different between ruptured and unruptured groups (10.3 vs. 7.5%, P = 0.51). There were no significant differences in obliteration rate, time to obliteration, or adverse effects requiring surgery or steroids between unruptured and ruptured groups.

Conclusion:

Smaller AVM size, deep venous drainage, and associated intranidal aneurysms were associated with rupture at presentation. AVM rupture at presentation was not associated with an increased risk of recurrent hemorrhage or other complication after SRS when compared to unruptured AVM presentation. Obliteration rates were similar between ruptured and unruptured groups.
New frontiers in wound-dressings: An interdisciplinary perspective
Authors: Mishra Vijay Kumar , Ahmed Shadab , Goswami Rachna
Published: May 2022

The existing wound care systems and sustained interest in the development of new generation dressings is a step towards a constant search for better and effective management of wound care. There were two major shifts in the development of wound care; the first one was to shift from dry to moist dressings whereby the healing process as well as time was augmented. The next major change came when the dressings were incorporated with antimicrobial compounds like silver, polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB), dialkyl carbamoyl chloride for providing healing and at the same time protection from the skin and soft tissue infections. Later on, use of adherent gauze and then vapour permeable films were developed. The recent developments in elastomeric polymer technology (hydrocolloids, polyurethane matrix, films etc.) along with this better understanding of the breathable adhesive technology provided us options for incorporating combined technology for new more efficient dressings. Even though there have been remarkable achievements in terms of wound care management, however, as yet there is no single dressing that can take care of all types of wounds.

Drought stress is a significant limitation to the production and yield of black gram [Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper] and abscisic acid plays a subtle role in the biosynthetic pathway during drought stress. The present study examined the morphology, biochemical, relative water content and antioxidant activities of black gram plants treated with various abscisic acid (ABA) levels under drought conditions. The ABA at 50 ppm concentration showed promising recovery of morphological characters compared to other concentrations. The photosynthetic pigments, biochemical constituents, malondialdehyde and antioxidant enzymes (CAT, POD, SOD and APX) were active at 50 ppm. Infrared Spectroscopic (IR) analysis of black gram leaves in a bandwidth ranging from 400 to 4000 cm-1 revealed a change in metabolites under drought stress and exogenous ABA application. The FTIR spectroscopy results warrant that the expression of functional organic compounds in the drought response of black gram can aid in the discovery of new drought-tolerant traits. As a result, ABA-responsive cultivars can cultivate and produce drought-resistant black gram varieties in arid and semi-arid climates.

Authors: Lamas D. , Constenla D. , Ceci L.
Published: May 2022

Response surface methodology was used to study the optimum processing conditions for enzymatic degumming of sunflower oil. Degumming assays were performed using a phospholipase A1 (Lecitase® Ultra) and an acyltransferase (LysoMax® Oil). A 2k-1 fractional factorial design was carried out to simultaneously study the effects of pH, temperature, enzyme concentration, buffer/substrate ratio and time on the phosphorus content. For the response obtained, a polynomial model was developed through multiple linear regression analysis. Lecitase® Ultra was affected by all studied factors while the buffer/substrate ratio did not significantly influence the performance of LysoMax® Oil. The optimum conditions to achieve the lowest phosphorus content were reached at 50 °C, pH 5 and an enzyme dosage of 200 U/kg of oil during 90 minutes using Lecitase® Ultra and 59 °C, pH 5.9 and an enzyme dosage of 197 U/kg of oil during 89 minutes using LysoMax® Oil. Under optimal conditions, the phosphorus content decreased to less than 3 mg/kg with both enzymes. The oil yield was 96.80 g/100g and 96.85 g/100g with the treatment using phospholipase A1 and acyltransferase respectively.

The article reveals the features of the implementation of judicial control as a guarantee of the activities of the prosecutor's office for the observance of human rights in Ukraine. It has been established that judicial control acts as a separate institution, the main role in the functioning of which is to regulate social relations in order to ensure the protection of the rights and legitimate interests of a human and a citizen. It has been established that judicial control over the activities of the prosecutor's office in the context of respect for the rights and freedoms of man and citizen is a special type of state control exercised by the judicial branch of power in Ukraine. It was found that the subject of judicial control over the activities of the prosecutor's office is the direct activities of prosecuting authorities, in particular the legality and validity of such activities in the context of making managerial or procedural decisions. It has been established that the subjects of judicial control over the activities of the prosecutor's office are the Supreme Court, courts of appeal and local courts. It is determined that judicial control over the observance of human and civil rights and freedoms should be carried out in the process of applying the measures that will ensure criminal proceedings. It is noted that the prospects for further research in this direction are to study the features and improve the mechanism of administrative and legal regulation of the legal protection of the rights and freedoms of man and citizen in the activities of the prosecutor's office of Ukraine.

В статье рассмотрены возможности использования сапропеля и торфа в биологическом земледелии Чувашской Республики. Использование сапропеля увеличивает урожайность клубней картофеля в светло-серой лесной почве в 2,5 раза при внесении 50 т/га, и более, чем в два раза при внесении 30 т/га. При этом качество картофеля улучшается – содержание крахмала в клубнях картофеля существенно возрастает.

The article considers the possibilities of using sapropel and peat in biological agriculture of the Chuvash Republic. The use of sapropel increases the yield of potato tubers in light gray forest soil by 2.5 times when applying 50 t/ha, and more than twice when applying 30 t/ha. At the same time, the quality of potatoes improves – the starch content in potato tubers increases significantly.
Trajectoire du patient et structuration infirmière dans l'interaction verbale : étude de cas
Authors: Graber Myriam
Published: May 2022

L'analyse du soin dans son déroulement effectif (sa temporalité), sur la base de toutes les pratiques communicatives observées (leur séquentialité) va permettre de comprendre le rôle spécifique de l'infirmier dans sa dimension « articulante ». L'infirmier assume un rôle clé dans l'articulation de la trajectoire, car il se situe souvent entre les différents acteurs, entre les différentes tâches et, particulièrement aux soins ambulatoires et à domicile, entre les sphères institutionnelle et privée. Il assure ainsi une continuité dans une chaîne d 'actions discontinues, et cette activité d'articulation et de mise en relation passe essentiellement par le langage, langage qui lui-même se pose d'ailleurs souvent comme un intermédiaire, une courroie de transmission entre le code médical et le code ordinaire. Dans cet article, nous proposons de montrer, à travers l'analyse d'un long événement interactionnel, quelques aspects de ce travail d'articulation et de ses enjeux discursifs.

Les considérations onto-gnoséologiques de Marr du point de vue de la méthodologie pragmatico-fonctionnelle
Authors: Leščak Oleg , Sitko Jurij , Simonato Elena , Sériot Patrick
Published: May 2022

Les conceptions ontologiques de N. Marr ne s'accordaient pas vraiment avec ses conceptions gnoséologiques, ni ces dernières avec sa méthode de recherche. L'analyse pragmatico-fonctionnelle de la philosophie du langage de Marr permet de faire apparaître des échos des théories de W. von Humboldt, de H. Steinthal, des néo-platoniciens russes, de même que des fondateurs du fonctionnalisme et du pragmatisme en linguistique : A. Potebnja, H. Schuchardt, E. Cassirer, J. Baudouin de Courtenay, F. de Saussure, L. Ščerba, V. Mathesius, N. Troubetzkoy, etc. On a pu ainsi mettre en évidence certaines positions-clés de la philosophie du langage chez Marr :

Dans son ontologie : un psychosociologisme métaphysique (« de classe »), un dualisme transcendental, une combinaison de réalisme socio-économique et d'idéalisme ethno-sociologique, un activisme historique, un téléologisme objectif et un préformisme socio-ethnique, un organicisme, un émergentisme, un globalisme prospectif, un pluralisme et un empirisme rétrospectifs, un verbalisme, un sémanticisme, un aposteriorisme linguo-génétique et un antinaturalisme.

Dans sa gnoséologie : un objectivisme et un maximalisme, un phénoménologisme, un eïdétisme, une approche explicative, un herméneutisme, un diachronisme dynamique, un holisme, un anti-scientisme, anti-rationalisme et antiintellectualisme, un factualisme naturaliste.

Des deux points de vue, les conceptions de Marr sont totalement éclectiques. Une bonne partie des malentendus suscités par les jugements sur Marr proviennent de la non-compréhension de ses conceptions méthodologiques et de la tentative de les interpréter à partir de positions scientifiques, et non philosophico-méthodologiques. Marr n'était pas un linguiste, mais un philosophe du langage.
