Redescription of adults of Kribiodorum belalong Cranston (Diptera, Chironomidae, Chironomini) from Gunung Mulu National Park, Sarawak, Malaysia
Authors: Tang Hongqu , Cranston Peter S.
Published: January 2025

The adult male of Kribiodorum belalong Cranston (Diptera: Chironomidae) was described only from a teneral adult specimen along with pupae. Certain key characters are unavailable or unmeasurable in the teneral form, e.g., wing dimensions, abdominal coloration pattern, and fine details of the hypopygium including the dorsal shape of the anal point. Here we redescribe and figure the adult male, and describe and illustrate the adult female of Kribiodorum belalong for the first time, both based on specimens recently collected in Gunung Mulu National Park, Sarawak, Malaysia. We provide some comments on the putative phylogenetic position of Kribiodorum Kieffer.
The Role of Dialect in the Reeve’s Prologue and Tale
Authors: Farrell Thomas J.
Published: January 2025

Because discussion of dialect in the speech of Aleyn and John in the Reeve’s Tale has always focused on its Northern character, attention to other dialect forms in the tale has unfortunately also sought to locate them geographically, namely in the Reeve’s Norfolk home. But examples of the first-person pronoun ik, the  reflex of Old English /y/, and the uninflected genitive resist that tendency in two ways: both their appearances in the complete textual record and their frequent, unexplained absences from it argue against any hypothesis of a consistent geographical significance, and their surprisingly widespread diffusion in the language of both narration and various characters requires understanding their significance in other terms. An editorial approach much more open to readings outside the Hengwrt-Ellesmere nexus allows for a fuller appreciation of the tale.
When the “Other” Shares Your Faith: The Case of Sicily and al-Andalus in Ibn Ḥawqal’s Kitāb ṣūrat al-arḍ with a New Translation
Authors: Grasso Valentina A.
Published: January 2025

“No doctrine is comparable in any other country, and no heresy nor belief in any other religion.” According to Ibn Ḥawqal (d. after 978), an Arab geographer raised in Iraq, the inhabitants of tenth-century Sicily are among the most vain, most ignorant, and most xenophobic people on earth. This article explores the articulation of otherness in the Kitāb ṣūrat al-arḍ, a text Ibn Ḥawqal wrote after his sojourn on the island in 973, which is here included in a new English translation. The geographer’s description of Sicily is embedded in a moralizing discourse that veers toward grotesque. His rejection of Sicily’s distance from the paradigm of a “good” Muslim country upholds the island’s “untranslatability” as an unforgivable weakness and a sign of moral degradation. Nonetheless, his account of Palermo and its surroundings provides crucial historical information on the island’s economic and geopolitical situation. Moreover, it offers an enlightening account for the study of interfaith dialogue, “otherness,” and “Islamization.” Accordingly, this article features the first English translation of the section on al-Andalus as it is crucial to evaluate Ibn Ḥawqal’s critique of Sicily, as both Mediterranean territories were conquered by the Muslims not long before Ibn Hawqal’s travels.
The Politics of Exclusion and Inclusive Recognition: Unveiling Social and Epistemic Injustice
Authors: Nwosimiri Ovett
Published: January 2025

The subject of personhood has received substantial discussion in contemporary African philosophy where communitarianism happens to be the dominant approach. In his new book Menkiti’s Moral Man, Oritsegbubemi Anthony Oyowe enters this discussion as a repentant critic of Ifeanyi Menkiti’s version of communitarianism, the plausibility of which he attempts to defend with compelling arguments and interpretations. In this book, especially in chapter 4, Oyowe addresses the subject of women’s social recognition and inclusion in the African community. In view of this, this article extends the discussion of the subject of social recognition and inclusion to the LGBTQ+ people. Therefore, this article critically engages the place of LGBTQ+ people in the contemporary African community and argues for their inclusive recognition. The article contends that the nonrecognition and exclusion of LGBTQ+ people within the African community constitute a social and epistemic injustice. The article also argues that, since, like other recognized community members, LGBTQ+ people duly discharge familial and communal obligations, display good conduct in the community, and share in the responsibility to respect nonpersons, humans, and nonhumans alike, they deserve social recognition.
Communal Social Architecture, Individual Capacities, and Menkiti’s Personhood
Authors: Ikuenobe Polycarp
Published: January 2025

This article examines two issues raised and addressed by Oyowe in his book, Menkiti’s Moral Man. The first involves two of Oyowe’s criticisms of Menkiti: One criticism is that his conception of personhood is unfairly gendered; the other is that Menkiti’s view involves the priority of the community over individuals. The second issue involves Oyowe’s criticisms of Ikuenobe’s analysis of some aspects of Menkiti’s view in the context of the above criticisms. Oyowe indicates that, although he is “a repentant critic” of Menkiti, he does “not deny the merits of these criticisms.” On page 15, He indicates that he is “convinced that there are resources in Menkiti’s general account for tackling them [criticisms].” This article highlights how his criticisms of Ikuenobe indicate his failure to appreciate fully the relevant robust resources in Menkiti for addressing these criticisms that Ikuenobe’s analysis highlights.

Published: January 2025

Economic evaluation serves as a crucial tool for decision-making in healthcare, gaining prominence in shaping health policy and treatment choices. The field encompasses several methodologies, including cost minimization, cost effectiveness, cost utility, and cost benefit analyses. Selecting the appropriate method based on the study topic is essential for optimal implementation. In the health sector, economic evaluations can enhance resource utilization, ensuring more individuals receive appropriate treatments. Breast cancer imposes a growing burden on healthcare systems worldwide, with one in eight women likely to develop the disease. Breast cancer originates in the ducts or lobules of the breast, presenting various types, stages, and symptoms, which necessitate different treatment approaches. Common surgical treatments include mastectomy, breast-conserving surgery, implant breast reconstruction, and autologous breast reconstruction, each with distinct outcomes and risks. Given the constraints of current healthcare budgets, understanding the cost implications of these treatments is vital. Economic evaluation can provide valuable insights for stakeholders, aiding in the decision-making process. However, there is a lack of comprehensive studies in this area within our country. This research aims to conduct a cost-effectiveness analysis of different surgical treatment options for breast cancer.

The Influence of Prestige Issues on the Main Characteristics of Necklaces
Authors: Kodurupati Prashanth , Combater Reymark
Published: January 2025

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between prestige and social life by examining the main character's experience in the Necklace short tale, deciphering the symbolism of the necklace, and elaborating on how the lifestyle shown in the story relates to individuals in this era. The qualitative analysis used in this literary work study is content analysis. The conclusion shows that Mathilde's life is significantly impacted by prestige in The Necklace. Owing to her lofty goals, she tries her hardest to achieve them even though they are beyond her capabilities, which ultimately leads to her foolishness and demise. The necklace represents dishonesty. It suddenly dawns on her that all the glitz she craves is unreal. She loses sight of the fact that genuine self - esteem is modesty and integrity. There are parallels between this current era and the Necklace. Individuals are overly preoccupied with wealth, status, and self - worth. Using social media and credit payment systems, people compete to gain a wonderful image and become prestigious in society. People in civilizations are greatly impacted by prestige. But with the resources at our disposal, we must be reasonable in what we can accomplish.

Authors: Yang Shuqi , Hu Zhongjun , Xie Zhanhang , Li Jifeng , Xu Boyang , Zhang Yibo
Published: January 2025

Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is increasingly being used to reinforce and modify existing structures, but UHPC is prone to high temperature bursting under fire conditions, and how to improve the high temperature burst resistance of UHPC has become a hot topic in the current industry. In this paper, the effects of high temperature and secondary curing on the splitting tensile strength of UHPC compounded with steel and polypropylene fibers were investigated. The analyses were carried out that: 1) UHPC doped with 3% steel fiber and 0.4% PP fiber has good resistance to high temperature bursting, and even after the action of 900℃, the UHPC splitting and stretching specimen do not appear to burst and peel. 2) The tensile strength of UHPC splitting was improved by high temperature treatment at 300℃, which played a similar role to "steam curing", and the splitting tensile strength of UHPC after high temperature treatment at 600℃ and 900℃ decreased significantly, and the decline became more noticeable with higher temperatures. 3) The residual splitting tensile strength of UHPC after secondary curing is the same as that of UHPC without curing after high temperature. However, the difference is that as the temperature of the high temperature treatment increases, the effect of secondary curing on the residual strength of UHPC becomes more significant.

Authors: Li Zhiyun , Chowdhury Mashrur , Bhavsar Parth
Published: January 2025

The rapid growth in electric vehicle (EV) adoption and the increasing use of renewable energy have introduced challenges in designing and managing EV charging infrastructure. This study presents a framework that combines a hybrid deep learning model, spatial and temporal demand analysis, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) optimization to address these issues. The framework achieved high predictive accuracy, with an RMSE of 2.1 kWh and an R2R^2R2 value of 0.92, effectively capturing daily demand patterns and variations across charging stations. Spatial analysis revealed differences in usage between urban and suburban stations, highlighting the need for targeted planning strategies to address high-demand areas and underused locations. V2G optimization reduced the Peak-to-Average Ratio by 28% and increased renewable energy usage to 68% under normal conditions, contributing to grid stability and energy efficiency. The framework was tested under scenarios of increasing EV adoption and station numbers, maintaining reliable performance and operational effectiveness. These results provide practical guidance for improving EV charging systems and ensuring reliable energy distribution while promoting sustainability. By addressing key operational challenges, this research provides a strong foundation for incorporating advanced tools into urban energy systems. Future studies could explore the use of real-time traffic data and localized events to further improve prediction accuracy and enhance system performance in complex urban settings.

Authors: Garrido Wainer Juan M. , Rubio Roberto
Published: January 2025

En este artículo, presentamos y analizamos críticamente el enfoque tecnicista en teoría de los medios. Abordamos una de sus propuestas más radicales, a saber: la eliminación de la dimensión del sentido y de las instancias agenciales humanas en favor de la dimensión de la información y de sistemas automatizados de procesamiento de señales y datos.
En nuestro análisis consideramos las dificultades del gesto eliminacionista y ofrecemos un enfoque alternativo que atienda a los aspectos técnico-materiales, pero sin eliminar la dimensión del sentido. Se trata de un enfoque basado en los planteos derridianos sobre la huella. Examinaremos la mediación de la huella con vistas a tres aspectos decisivos: la conformación de relaciones lógicas y lenguajes formales, el funcionamiento de los sistemas de información y la producción de significaciones.

Authors: Lakhyani Susmita
Published: January 2025

In schools, administrators and most of the teachers (upto K-12) are often non-artists; they may consider art a fringe subject. Their art experience matters. Therefore, I designed a workshop on ‘nature drawing’ theme, aiming to develop art and nature appreciation through creative pedagogy. 35 Non-art-specialized prospective teachers had participated in the workshop and data was collected in the form of their written reflections along with drawings. Findings revealed that their artwork reflected deep observation, originality, fearlessness, independent feeling-based decision-making, and self-created symbols. Their experiences expressed a sense of holistic experience and calmness. The workshop fostered inner peace and human values, appreciation of art and nature, thereby supporting the Sustainable Development Goals for quality education, and inner peace. Thus, art and nature should be the basis of education, as they are excellent teachers for human development and growth. This workshop can be included in the non-art-specialized pre-service teacher education curriculum.

This study looks at how debt policy in health sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) is influenced by institutional ownership, company size, and profitability. Data was collected through a quantitative approach from annual financial reports for the years 2019-2023. After considering outlier data, the study population consisted of 34 businesses, which resulted in 31 observations through purposive sampling method. The analysis was conducted with classical assumption tests and multiple linear regression using the SPSS software program. The results show that firm size has no significant effect on debt policy, but institutional ownership and profitability have a significant effect. The model is free from heteroscedasticity, normality, and multicollinearity problems thanks to the classical assumption test. According to the regression analysis, the model can explain 62.1% of the variation in debt policy. The study found that, although more profitable firms tend to rely on internal funding sources, institutional ownership can serve as a monitoring tool. However, firm size is not a major factor in debt policy making. This study provides practical implications for corporate financial management in the healthcare industry and helps investors assess the factors that influence corporate funding structure. It is expected that future research will analyze more variables due to research limitations, such as the small sample size and relatively short research time.

Authors: Reynado Rivas Maynor Guillermo
Published: January 2025

El presente estudio analiza la relación entre territorialidad y emprendimiento para proponer estrategias que impulsen el desarrollo local en el municipio de Santa Tecla. El objetivo principal es identificar las características clave de los emprendedores locales y sus negocios, con un enfoque en la sostenibilidad, la articulación entre actores locales y la creación de un entorno favorable para el emprendimiento. La investigación utiliza una metodología mixta. Por un lado, se aplicó una encuesta a 46 emprendedores de zonas urbanas y rurales para obtener datos cuantitativos sobre sus perfiles, tipos de emprendimientos, y condiciones económicas. Por otro lado, se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas con actores locales clave para comprender el apoyo institucional al emprendimiento. Los resultados muestran que la mayoría de los emprendedores provienen de la zona urbana y se dedican principalmente a la comercialización de alimentos y bebidas. Los negocios más rentables se concentran en el Parque El Principito y el Paseo El Carmen. Además, se identifican los factores que contribuyen al éxito o fracaso de los emprendimientos, destacándose la importancia del acceso a financiamiento y la elección de espacios de comercialización. Finalmente, se concluye que el desarrollo local en Santa Tecla puede fortalecerse mediante la promoción de la autonomía emprendedora, la sostenibilidad de los negocios, y una mayor articulación entre emprendedores e  instituciones locales. Se proponen estrategias específicas, como el uso de redes sociales y la optimización de espacios comerciales, para potenciar el éxito de los emprendimientos.
O inventário de uma vila lacustre
Authors: Aracati Brian Gomes Cardoso
Published: January 2025

A vila de Viana se origina da aldeia jesuítica de Maracu, elevada à vila em 1757, sob os novos ditames de d. José I e seu gabinete pombalino para a capitania do Maranhão. Diante disso, este estudo buscou analisar e compreender a cultura material e o patrimônio de alguns indivíduos detentores de bens na vila de Viana entre 1767 e 1788, amparado na necessidade de se visualizar os efeitos das políticas pombalinas no âmbito da vida material e cotidiana dos moradores locais. Utilizou-se um corpus documental composto de nove inventários post mortem e outros registros notariais. Conjugando-se as escalas micro e macro, a documentação, embora tímida, evidenciou os nexos entre a experiência histórica de Viana e os efeitos das reformas capitaneadas pelo reinado josefino, a partir das microrrealidades extraídas dos patrimônios em foco.
Эстетика как практика равенства
Authors: Аронсон О.
Published: January 2025

В статье делается попытка прочертить путь развития эстетики как философской дисциплины от ориентации на чувственное познание к современной художественной практике, выступающей в качестве интеллектуальной критики общества. В таком виде эстетика становится практикой равенства, что уловил еще Кант в своей антиномии вкуса, обнаружив в нем момент «общего чувства» (sensus communis), не сводимого ни к какому индивидуальному проявлению чувственности. Когда sensus communis вводится как основной принцип эстетики равенства, то место философских понятий занимают аффективные образы, воздействующие на публику, и теряется различие между искушенным и наивным восприятием. Подобно революционному энтузиазму масс, это образыдействия, трансверсальные сложившимся институтам, в том числе институтам демократическим, утверждающим равенство как одну из ценностей. Но равенство — не ценность, а именно практический принцип, который, чтобы стать принципом мышления, должен освоить критический потенциал искусства.

The article makes an attempt to trace the path of development of aesthetics as a philosophical discipline from its orientation on sensual cognition to contemporary artistic intellectual critique of society. In this form, aesthetics becomes a practice of equality, a fact which Kant already grasped in his antinomy of taste, discovering in it a moment of sensus communis which is not reducible to any individual manifestation of sensuality. When the sensus communis is introduced as the basic principle of the aesthetics of equality, affective images take the place of philosophical concepts, affecting the public, and the distinction between sophisticated and naïve perception is lost. Like the revolutionary enthusiasm of the masses, these are action-images, transversal to established institutions, including democratic institutions that affirm equality as a value. But equality is not a value; it is a practical principle that needs to master the critical potential of art in order to become a principle of thinking.
