O Thesaurus Brasileiro da Educação como ferramenta de revisão de literatura e bibliométrica:
Authors: Quintanilha da Silva Marcus , Lima de Araújo Maria Clara , De Melo Araújo Maria Ana Belly
Published: November 2024

O objetivo deste trabalho é de problematizar a produção científica sobre carreira e valorização do magistério entre os anos de 2012 e 2022 a partir da exploração dos limites e as potencialidades do Thesaurus Brasileiro da Educação. A partir dos interesses específicos do programa de pesquisa intitulado “Políticas para carreira e remuneração docente: Um diálogo entre Brasil e Chile frente às marchas e contramarchas do neoliberalismo”, coordenado pela UFPR, desenvolvido em rede com a UFMS, UEMS, UFPA, UFPB, UTalca-Chile e financiado pelo Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq), considerou-se o vocabulário controlado da plataforma Thesaurus com a potencialidade de auxiliar no processo híbrido de estudo bibliométrico e de revisão de literatura, na direção de compreender a produção, abordagem, temas dos artigos publicados durante o período proposto e outros aspectos, como os principais autores (as) e centros de discussão da temática. Os resultados indicam que a Gestão Terminológica tem potencialidades de integrar conteúdos e recuperar trabalhos, especialmente artigos, mas encontra limites na conceituação e os próprios termos genéricos utilizados, por não estarem consolidados na literatura acadêmica na política educacional e, especificamente, no campo de interesse da pesquisa.
Viagens de educadores musicais nas primeiras décadas do século XX
Authors: Monteiro Gonzaga do Monti Ednardo , Melo Rodrigo Alves de
Published: November 2024

O presente trabalho versa sobre a perspectiva da História da Educação, tendo como horizonte as produções intelectuais com foco em viagens de educadores musicais através de itinerários em países de cinco continentes: França, Itália, Inglaterra, Áustria Espanha, Portugal e Grécia (Europa); Egito (África); Síria (Ásia); Estados Unidos da América (América do Norte) e Argentina (América do Sul). O objetivo dessas viagens foi a participação em eventos artísticos, pedagógicos e diplomáticos, datados na primeira metade do século XX. Como metodologia, realizamos uma revisão bibliográfica abarcando estudos e publicações acadêmicas de historiadores da Educação que trabalham com a temática História da Educação Musical. Como resultado, percebemos que esses intelectuais interessados no aprimoramento artístico e pedagógico não viajaram apenas para conhecer países ou continentes. As experiências desses sujeitos contribuíram com a Educação Musical, por meio da criação de cursos inovadores e de escritos relatando as respectivas vivências experimentadas além-mar, como também, mobilizaram a difusão de propostas pedagógicas e a música brasileira em palcos dos países de destino e formação.
Corações… na escola:
Authors: Sales Tiago Amaral
Published: November 2024

O amor permeia as vidas e as cotidianidades de diferentes formas. Através da atenção mobilizada pelo autor – que é professor e pesquisador – aos corações que permeiam a escola, realizou-se registros fotográficos e escritos durante cerca de um ano de pesquisa-docência. Nos espaços escolares, além dos conhecimentos curriculares maiores, também aprende-se a conviver e relacionar-se com o outro artesanalmente, e é justamente nestes processos de produção subjetiva e criação de currículos outros que este texto foca. Os corações grafados nas mesas, muros, janelas e portas escolares, nas cartas de amor, nos cartazes e nos cadernos são os protagonistas para a criação de escritas-encontros em cartografias, inspiradas nas possibilidades de autoficcionar e poetizar os encontros e os trajetos vividos.
O aluno surfista na modernidade líquida:
Authors: Ramalho dos Santos Edvanderson , De Carvalho Cruz Gilmar
Published: November 2024

O artigo explora a transição para a modernidade líquida e seu impacto nas novas gerações, particularmente nos “alunos surfistas”, que, embora naveguem pelas ondas do conhecimento, não estabelecem conexões duradouras com ele. O objetivo é analisar as características e desafios enfrentados por esses estudantes no contexto da modernidade líquida, com base nas teorias de Bauman, Bateson e Piaget, e explorar como o currículo pode ser adaptado para atender às necessidades desse novo perfil de estudante. Na primeira seção, usamos a Teoria Crítica de Bauman para analisar à modernidade líquida e suas implicações na formação das subjetividades, abordando temas como a mobilidade do capital, o impacto na educação e a importância da reconstrução do espaço público. Na segunda seção, discutimos a evolução da educação da modernidade sólida para a era líquido-moderna, destacando o impacto do neoliberalismo e da volatilidade da informação, que demandam uma reavaliação do propósito e métodos educacionais. A terceira seção analisa a teoria de aprendizagem de Bateson, que aborda os diversos níveis de aprendizado e sua relação com a adaptação do indivíduo. Também se apresenta exemplos de propostas pedagógicas que refletem a concepção de um currículo aberto e plural. A conclusão ressalta a necessidade de um currículo aberto que equilibre o conhecimento acumulado pela humanidade com o contexto dos alunos.
A hegemonia discursiva na formação de nível médio para as juventudes brasileiras:
Authors: Marques Aline Rabelo
Published: November 2024

Os movimentos das ocupações estudantis de 2016 contrariam a premissa do desinteresse puro e simples das juventudes brasileiras pela formação de nível médio. Se assim fosse, não teríamos ouvido, em diferentes estados da federação, os ecos dos gritos por manutenção, ampliação do acesso, qualidade e por maior possibilidade de participarem da constituição do espaço escolar. Neste texto, apresentamos discursos neoliberais desvelados no interior da produção curricular do Programa Ensino Médio Inovador (ProEMI) (BRASIL, 2009, 2009a, 2009b, 2009c) para o ensino médio brasileiro, tendo como fio condutor as análises do conceito-chave: hegemonia. As análises apontam que dentro do terreno da sociedade civil, sobretudo no campo educacional, as forças dominantes, dotadas de capital, desenvolvem estratégias para educar para o consenso. O Estado brasileiro, desempenhando o papel de Estado educador, redesenha suas práticas, por meio de uma pedagogia da hegemonia, arquitetada em textos/documentos curriculares alinhados ao projeto neoliberal de sociabilidade. No campo educacional, as relações hegemônicas, como exercício de direção e dominação, por meio do poder, são essencialmente relações pedagógicas, ou seja, de ensino-aprendizagem, ao mesmo tempo, que promotoras da reestruturação educacional.
NOÇÃO DE ATOR NA SEMIÓTICA FRANCESA
Authors: Costa Marcos Rogério Martins
Published: November 2024

O termo ator emerge na tradição semiótica em substituição ao conceito de personagem (ou dramatis persona). O objetivo do artigo é retomar os pressupostos teóricos da supracitada noção, trazendo à luz contribuições recentes. A fundamentação teórica deste trabalho se assenta, de um lado, nos estudos seminais da semiótica discursiva (GREIMAS; COURTÉS, 2008; GREIMAS, 1973; 2014), e, de outro, nos desdobramentos recentes da semiótica tensiva (FONTANILLE; ZILBERBERG, 2001). Metodologicamente, este estudo se propõe a ser descritivo (MARCONI; LAKATOS, 2003), fazendo uma retomada bibliográfica, não exaustiva, dos principais pressupostos teóricos relacionados ao conceito de ator e da construção do conceito de ator coletivo. Como resultado, constata-se a relevância do conceito abordado para os estudos discursivos contemporâneos, demonstrando o estado da arte da noção de ator na teoria semiótica.

NARRATIVAS DE PAIS SURDOS ACERCA DE FILHAS OUVINTES
Authors: Santos Filho Pedro
Published: November 2024

Resumo: Apresenta-se neste trabalho um recorte da pesquisa para tese em Educação que procurou investigar a experiência vivida por uma família com Coda, constituída por pais surdos e duas filhas ouvintes, nos processos de interação no cotidiano. Coda (Children Of Deaf Adults) termo que corresponde aos filhos ouvintes de pais surdos. Tomou-se como objetivo geral, analisar narrativas de pais surdos acerca de seus filhos ouvintes no cotidiano familiar. Como objetivos, foram propostos: identificar em narrativas as relações que se estabelecem entre pais surdos e as filhas ouvintes; descrever o processo de interação numa família com Codas pelas narrativas dos pais; analisar os processos de interação numa família com Codas a partir das narrativas dos pais. Como procedimento metodológico de recolha e análise das fontes, recorremos à entrevista narrativa proposta por Jovchelovitch e Bauer (2014), as entrevistas foram gravadas por câmera filmadora, equipamento adequado para registro da língua de sinais. Destacam-se como resultados: a) uso da Libras com as filhas desde a infância; b) uso maior da Libras no seio familiar e nos espaços sociais primeira pela primeira filha; c) atuação da primeira filha como intérprete; d) pouco uso da Libras no seio familiar e no contexto social pela filha mais nova. Conclui-se que a família com Coda é bilíngue por utilizar duas línguas, uso distintos da língua de sinais pelas filhas em tempos diversos (infância, adolescência e fase adulta).

SENS, SIGNIFIANCES, SIGNIFICATIVITÉS
Authors: MISSIRE Régis , KURTS-WÖSTE Lia
Published: November 2024

Les résultats du travail présentés dans les pages qui suivent se situent dans le contexte actuel de développement d’une sémiolinguistique appliquée à la littérature. Celle-ci s’intègre dans le cadre épistémologique fédératif des sciences de la culture d’origine cassirérienne, tout en cherchant à le renouveler par l’apport de nouveaux auteurs. Elle prend acte des avancées de la sémantique interprétative et de sa réinscription dans le cadre plus large d’une sémiotique des cultures, où les textes et les œuvres sont reconçus comme autant d’objets culturels en devenir. Un tel élargissement invite à intégrer les questions concernant la pluralisation des régimes de sémioticité à l’œuvre dans les langages d’art à une perspective plus générale sur les pratiques artistiques, langagières et non langagières. L’objectif de cette réflexion sur le régime de sémioticité particulier nommé ici « significativité » – et plus exactement « significativité qualitative[1] » – est de prolonger les développements théoriques et pratiques de la sémantique interprétative dans le cadre d’une théorisation du cycle de la transmission, qui prenne en compte le champ culturel en général, et plus particulièrement les corpus d’émergence de nouvelles formes et leur percée toujours imprévisible. Il s’agit, à partir de cette notion, de mieux comprendre ce que pourrait être une herméneutique sémiotique qui prendrait acte des thèmes néocassirériens et néosaussuriens, tout en maintenant l’exigence philologique dans ce qu’elle contient de force critique plutôt que de patrimonialisation académique.

QU’EST-CE QUE LE MONDE?
Authors: BADIR Sémir
Published: November 2024

Cette étude présente une analyse de la notion de monde comme celle-ci se trouve décrite par l’article que le Trésor de la langue française, bénéficiant du travail réalisé par les dictionnaires antérieurs, a consacré au mot monde. On s’attache dans un premier temps à dégager les liens sémantiques, pour l’essentiel synecdochiques, existant entre les vingt-trois définitions que compte l’article. Comme ces définitions établissent et hiérarchisent pour le mot divers sens et acceptions, on montre ensuite les effets sémantiques produits par leur ordre de présentation. Finalement, une hypothèse est formulée quant au noyau sémique de la notion, laquelle exprime par afférence socialement normée la possibilité de se situer dans un environnement géographique ou social ainsi que de se l’approprier. Une analyse componentielle, conforme à la méthode exposée dans Sémantique interprétative, du sémème « monde » dans les locutions verbales visera à confirmer le bien-fondé de cette hypothèse. Cette étude cherche en outre à éclairer de manière critique l’usage que la philosophie, et la théorie littéraire à sa suite, ont fait de la notion de monde, cette critique lui servant dès lors de cadre général d’argumentation.
POUR DES LECTURES TEXTOMÉTRIQUES EN SÉMANTIQUE INTERPRÉTATIVE LE PROJET SITTELLE, PRINCIPES ET PERSPECTIVES
Authors: PINCEMIN Bénédicte
Published: November 2024

Cet article rend compte des intuitions initiales, des principes méthodologiques et des premiers résultats du projet Sittelle (Sémantique interprétative et textuelle). Cette initiative vise à expérimenter comment un corpus numérique, doté d’outils textométriques, peut donner accès à des parcours pertinents d’écrits linguistiques de François Rastier. Plusieurs caractéristiques de l’œuvre scientifique de Rastier encouragent une telle approche : sa volumétrie, son unité de pensée, ainsi qu’une écriture organisée de façon souple, fonctionnant souvent par évocation ou reprises.
Des possibilités d’interrogations textométriques sont illustrées sur un corpus expérimental de 28 articles. Les concordances offrent une implémentation de la technique herméneutique des passages parallèles. Si besoin, un calcul de cooccurrence produit une synthèse statistique des contextes. La répartition globale des occurrences d’un mot peut être visualisée graphiquement. Les inventaires lexicaux permettent d’observer des dominantes, constructions et variations. Les analyses factorielles sont en mesure de produire des cartographies du corpus. Les spécificités apportent une caractérisation différentielle d’un texte. La méthode Reinert et de nouveaux modes d’interrogation seraient à étudier pour leur capacité à capter des isotopies.
Quatre principes directeurs orientent les choix techniques de Sittelle : progressivité d’une expérimentation par étapes ; sens de l’intertextualité construite par le choix des textes ; ouverture dans l’esprit de la science ouverte et par des formats standards ; philologie numérique pour des représentations textuelles appropriées à l’activité herméneutique.
Advancements in phytomass-derived activated carbon for applications in energy storage systems
Authors: Palanichamy Kalyani , Rangachari Banuprabha , Jayavel Sridhar , Dhandapani Aravind , Natarajan Varagunapandiyan
Published: November 2024

Phytomass i. e. plant biomass-derived active carbon is a versatile electrode
material for energy devices owing to their natural and ubiquitous abundance,
variety, ecocentrism and unique physical properties. This article
intricately reviews the recent advancements in phytomass derived activated
carbon (PAC), chiefly for the supercapacitor electrodes and notably,
phytomass including different parts of the plants limited to, stem, leaf,
flower, seed, fruit and root for deriving ACs bestowed with excellent
electrochemical performance have been considered. Advancement in the
preparation of AC from phytomass, important facts associated with synthesis,
physical and electrochemical attributes have also been elaborated, which is
expected to furnish a fruitful direction towards advocating supercapacitors
- the green energy packs. Surface of PAC is usually decorated with organic
functional moieties containing heteroatoms like O, &/or S/N (referred to as
self-doped heteroatoms). The synergy of these heteroatoms in enhancing the
pseudocapacitance of the PAC electrodes in supercapacitors has also been
featured. Further, the review provokes insights on strategies, prominent
challenges, prospects and imminent opportunities and hopeful trend in
support of AC from various plant parts that may power our energy-based
society, scientific industries and in establishing sustainable energy sector
as well by harnessing Nature?s potential.
Lithic projectile points from Mexico of the collection at the Museum of Ethnography in Budapest
Authors: Péntek Attila
Published: November 2024

The America Collection of the Museum of Ethnography in Budapest houses two smaller lithic assemblages. These assemblages, in addition to various chipped stone tools mostly made of obsidian, also contain bifacially manufactured projectile points. According to the available data, the smaller assemblage originates from San Juan Teotihuacan (Mexico State, Central Mexico). The exact origin of the larger assemblage is unknown, but indirect evidence suggests that it comes partly from the area of Teotihuacan and partly the Oaxaca Valley (Oaxaca State, Southern Mexico). This paper determines the projectile points that can be analysed with sufficient certainty based on the typology lists available to the author.
Lower Palaeolithic in Korolevo I (Transcarpathia, Ukraine, East-Central Europe): the earliest in Europe?
Authors: E. Demidenko Yuri
Published: November 2024

A recently published article in “Nature” (Garba et al., 2024) claims that lithic finds in the lowermost artefact-bearing sediments of lithological unit 26 at the Korolevo I site (Transcarpathia, Ukraine) are the oldest in Europe, dated to ca. 1.42 Ma with cosmogenic nuclides of gravel pebbles. These surprisingly old dates were then used to build hypotheses on the geochronology and routes of the initial Homo erectus colonization of Europe from the east. The present author reviews all published and unpublished Lower Palaeolithic (LP) data of the Korolevo I site, the field investigations of which he also participated in the 1980s, and came to the following negative results. The dated pebbles in Korolevo I unit 26 are of “intrusive” character, they do not date unit 26 and its lithic finds. Also, the proposed Early Pleistocene interglacial MIS 47, 45 and 43 periods for the LP colonization of Europe either via Asia Minor and the Danube River valley or the Caucasus and the southern part of Eastern Europe do not correspond to the known palaeogeographic and archaeological data from Western Eurasia. Besides, our review of LP contexts in Korolevo I suggests that the so-called lowermost LP lithic artefacts found in situ in archaeological horizon VII within lithological unit 26 in Korolevo I in 1984-1986 are distributed randomly horizontally and vertically. Moreover, they are mostly unworked hyalodacite and siliceous sandstone pieces together with several artefacts redeposited from the sediments above. Accordingly, the only certainly LP material in Korolevo I we know so far is situated in archaeological horizon VI, which is geochronologically associated with the Middle Pleistocene inter-Mindel period or MIS 14, dated to ca. 550 ka BP. However, the Korolevo I site still appears to represent the oldest LP human occupation in both Eastern Central Europe and Ukraine.
Accessibility and Utilization of Contraceptives and Its Associated Factors among Students of Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria
Authors: Salawu Hikmat Moromoke , Akinwaare Margaret Omowaleola
Published: November 2024

Introduction: The use of modern contraceptives among young citizens has been documented to be effective in reducing STIs, unwanted pregnancies, as well as teenage pregnancy. Therefore, it has become necessary to determine utilization patterns of contraceptive services among young individuals as it is very critical for planning to meet the reproductive needs of young persons.
Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional research design was adopted for the study. The study was conducted using 404 undergraduates from two tertiary institutions. Simple random sampling was utilized in the study. Structured self-administered questionnaire was used for data collection. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics of chi-square test at p < 0.05.
Results: About 53.5% are between 18–22 years with a mean age of 22.62 ± 2.948; 51.5% are males, 88.6% still single. About 51.9% do not have access to contraceptives, and 66.83% are not utilizing contraceptives. Side effect of the drugs, lack of access to modern contraceptives, lack of money to access it and lack of appropriate knowledge of the one to use are major factors for non-utilization. Gender was not significantly associated with utilization of contraceptives (p = 0.204). A statistically significant association was observed between religion of the respondents and utilization of contraceptives (p = 0.013), and between accessibility of contraceptives and their utilization (p < 0.001).
Conclusion: There is poor accessibility and utilization of modern contra- ceptives among young people. Individual’s religion and accessibility could influence utilization.

Authors: Stefanny Maria , Putri Husni Indrawati Wijaya
Published: November 2024

This study explores the role of Emotional Intelligence (EI) and Work-Life Balance (WLB) as factors influencing job satisfaction among employees. Utilizing a quantitative approach, data was collected from 250 employees through a questionnaire adapted from previously validated instruments. Data analysis was performed using multiple regression techniques to evaluate the impact of EI and WLB on job satisfaction. The findings suggest that companies should prioritize the development of employees' emotional intelligence and support a balance between work and personal life to enhance job satisfaction and organizational effectiveness.
TLR4 AS THE MARKER OF NON-ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE PROGNOSIS IN PATIENTS WITH INTESTINAL DYSBIOSIS
Authors: Kvit Kh.
Published: November 2024

Introduction. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common liver diseases characterized by the fat accumulation in liver cells and is closely associated with metabolic disorders including obesity and insulin resistance. Considerable interest of researchers is focused on the role of the intestinal microbiome in the NAFLD development and occurrence, since a violation of the normal bacteria balance (dysbiosis) can increase inflammatory processes in the liver. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), which responds to components of the bacterial membrane, is an important marker involved in the development of inflammation and progression of NAFLD.The aim of this study was to determine the level of TLR4 in patients with NAFLD and to find the relationship with gut microbiome components. The study included 152 patients diagnosed with NAFLD and 86 control patients without fatty liver infiltration. General clinical, biochemical, enzyme immunoassay, instrumental and bacteriological methods were used to assess the condition of patients.The results showed that the level of TLR4 in patients with NAFLD was significantly higher than in the control group (2.67±3.05 ng/ml vs. 1.23±0.99 ng/ml). A positive correlation was marked between the TLR4 level and biochemical indicators of inflammation, such as ALT, AST, TG and ALP. It confirms the role of TLR4 in the development of inflammatory processes in NAFLD.In addition, patients with NAFLD showed a significant change in the gut microbiome composition – an increase in the number of Firmicutes phylotype bacteria and a higher level of Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes index, which was in positive correlation with TLR4. Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), which may lead to TLR4 activation, was also marked in 50% of NAFLD patients.Conclusion. The study confirms the role of TLR4 as a marker of the potential tole on NAFLD development and its relationship with intestinal dysbiosis, which could be perspective for the looking of new approaches in the prognosis and treatment of this disease. The microbiome correction and the development of TLR4 inhibitors is an essential way for future investigations as promising therapeutic method.

A Simple Measure of Anchoring for Short-Run Expected Inflation in FIRE Models
Authors:   Copenhagen Business School, Jørgensen Peter Lihn , Lansing Kevin J. ,   Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco
Published: November 2024

We show that the fraction of non-reoptimizing firms that index prices to the inflation target, rather than lagged inflation, provides a simple measure of anchoring for short-run expected inflation in a New Keynesian model with full-information rational expectations. Higher values of the anchoring measure imply less sensitivity of rational inflation forecasts to movements in actual inflation. The approximate value of the model’s anchoring measure can be inferred from observable data generated by the model itself, as given by 1 minus the autocorrelation statistic for quarterly inflation. We show that a shift in the collective indexing behavior of firms allows the model to account for numerous features of evolving U.S. inflation behavior since 1960.
Réttur fatlaðs fólks til samráðs

Rannsóknin sem hér er gerð grein fyrir snýr að rétti fatlaðs fólks til samráðs um málefni sem varða hagsmuni þess samkvæmt samningi Sameinuðu þjóðanna um réttindi fatlaðs fólks (Stjórnarráð Íslands, e.d.). Í ljósi áherslu nefndar samningsins, sem hefur eftirlit með innleiðingu hans, á mikilvægi þess að túlka réttinn til samráðs vítt var ákveðið að beina sjónum að þróun námsefnis í námskeiði á fyrsta ári í BA-námi í þroskaþjálfafræðum við Háskóla Íslands. Þroskaþjálfar sem starfsstétt vinna að því að raungera rétt fatlaðs fólks til fullrar samfélagsþátttöku og því er ljóst að fatlað fólk á mikilla hagsmuna að gæta í menntun þroskaþjálfa. Miklu skiptir því að hlustað sé eftir reynslu þess og mati á eigin hagsmunum og þörfum við þróun námsefnis. Við gerð rannsóknarinnar var sérstaklega horft til samráðs við fólk með þroskahömlun sem oft reiðir sig mikið á þjónustu þroskaþjálfa og rannsóknir hafa jafnframt sýnt að hafi oft takmarkaða möguleika til að koma sjónarhorni sínu og reynslu á framfæri við ákvörðunartöku og stefnumótun. Rannsóknin, sem fram fór á árunum 2022 og 2023, var eigindleg og byggði á gögnum sem aflað var með rýnihópaviðtölum við fatlað fólk, viðtölum við þátttakendur í rýnihópunum og greiningu á námsefni námskeiðs í þroskaþjálfafræði. Niðurstöður gáfu til kynna mikilvægi samráðs við þróun námsefnis og gildi þekkingar og reynslu fatlaðs fólks við mat á hvaða þætti mikilvægt er að leggja áherslu á í námi þroskaþjálfa. Viðmælendur bentu á fjórar nýjar áherslur sem tengjast sjálfstæði fatlaðs fólks og stuðningi við að stýra eigin lífi, sem talið var mikilvægt að bæta við námsefni námskeiðsins. Niðurstöður undirstrikuðu jafnframt mikilvægi samráðs til að styðja við valdeflingu fatlaðs fólks en þátttakendur upplifðu, með þátttöku sinni í rannsókninni, ákveðna tilfærslu á valdahlutföllum sem sérfræðingar í eigin málefnum.
Krieg und Frieden in der Geschichtswissenschaft. Neuere Perspektiven und Ansätze der Militär- und Gewaltgeschichte und der Historischen Friedensforschung
Authors: Koller Christian
Published: November 2024

Während Krieg seit der Entstehung der europäischen Geschichtsschreibung in der Antike eines ihrer zentralen Themen ist, wurde der Friede – abgesehen von kriegsbeendigenden Friedensschlüssen – erst im späten 20. Jahrhundert explizit thematisiert. Diese ungleiche Beschäftigung widerspiegelt den Umstand, dass es sich beim Begriffspaar Krieg und Frieden um asymmetrische Gegenbegriffe handelt: Der Krieg lässt sich inhaltlich, zeitlich und in seiner Ereignishaftigkeit einigermassen klar definieren, Charaktermerkmale und zeitliche Dimensionen des Friedens sind sehr viel diffuser. Nachdem die Kriegsgeschichte lange Zeit vor allem an Militärakademien betrieben wurde, um aus vergangenen Kriegen für zukünftige zu lernen, entstanden im späten 20. Jahrhundert verschiedene Formen ziviler, historisch-kritischer Beschäftigungen mit Krieg und Frieden, so der sozial- und wirtschaftshistorische War and Society-Ansatz, die an der normativen Idee des Friedens orientierte und explizit praxeologisch ausgerichtete Historische Friedensforschung, die vielfältige Impulse aus der Kultur-, Geschlechter-, Alltags-, Global- und Umweltgeschichte aufgreifende Neue Militärgeschichte sowie die Krieg, Bürgerkrieg, Genozid, Totalitarismus und weitere Gewaltsituationen zusammendenkende Gewaltgeschichte. Der Artikel rekapituliert die jüngeren Richtungen der historischen Beschäftigung mit Krieg und Frieden, ordnet sie in ihre wissenschaftlichen und realhistorischen Kontexte ein und stellt die Themenschwerpunkte dieser sich überlappenden Forschungsrichtungen vor.
Martin von Tours – Kampf im Zeichen des Friedens?
Authors: Sassi Islème
Published: November 2024

Martin von Tours zählt zu den bekanntesten und beliebtesten christlichen Heiligen der Gegenwart; die ikonische Szene, in der er seinen Armeemantel zerteilt, um die Hälfte einem frierenden Armen zu geben, wurde unzählige Male bildnerisch umgesetzt. Die Anekdote ist insofern repräsentativ, als Martin von Beruf römischer Soldat war. Sulpicius Severus, der im 4. Jahrhundert die wirkmächtigste Version seiner Biografie verfasste, rückte diesen Umstand ins Zentrum seiner Darstellung: Darf ein Christ als Soldat dienen? Darf er gegen Feinde kämpfen? Welche Rolle spielt die epische Auseinandersetzung zwischen Gut und Böse?
Severus bespielt das Wortfeld Krieg/Frieden und lotet dabei mögliche Bedeutungshorizonte einschlägiger Begriffe wie Soldat, Feind, Kampf und Sieg aus. Martin bleibt Soldat, obschon er sowohl das Schlachtfeld als auch die Armee wechselt: Nach seiner Konversion kämpft er als miles Christi für die Verbreitung des Christentums und gegen die alten Kulte, Dämonen, ja den Teufel selbst. Was Severus als Heldengeschichte konzipiert hatte, irritiert uns heute: Können Gotteskrieger wirklich das Gute schaffen? Können Gerechtigkeit und Frieden erkämpft werden? Diese zurzeit so virulenten Fragen werden wir mit Gewinn diesem 1600 Jahre alten Text stellen.
The Histrionics of Warrior Masculinity in 1 & 2 Tamburlaine (1587)
Authors: Huang Jifeng
Published: November 2024

This essay analyses the histrionics of warrior masculinity in 1 & 2 Tamburlaine in light of the social, political and technological shifts that transformed warfare in early modern England. It first looks at the contexts of these shifts and how they necessitated new models of masculinity in keeping with early modern civil society. The prospective elimination of the nobility’s warrior masculinity caused great anxieties about the foothold of masculinity in society more generally, which became a major subject of discussion in public discourse at the time. The early modern theatre, with its particular function in formulating topical issues and discussing questions about identities, staged the anxiety about effeminacy brought about by the demise of pre-modern warriorship. This essay, however, proposes that English Renaissance drama of war mediates the transition of the model manhood from that of martialism to that of civility. It argues that Christopher Marlowe’s 1 & 2 Tamburlaine, as a famous play centering on war and conquest, engages in such mediation through the hyperbolic characterisation of the pre-modern warrior. By doing so, it renders such a figure unhuman and thereby unviable in early modern society. The essay further analyses how the dramaturgy of the plays estranges the audience from the figure of pre-modern warrior and discredits its legitimacy.
Between Policies and Practices: a Quantitative Analysis of Teacher Training in Private Higher Education in São Paulo
Authors: Fernández Antonio Hernández , Camargo Claudia de Barros , Pichini Cynthia
Published: November 2024

Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate, analyze and discuss the aspects, paths and perspectives that permeate teacher training in Higher Education at a private university in São Paulo.
 
Theoretical Framework: This research is based on theories and discussions in the areas of the history and philosophy of education, teaching and learning, teacher training, curriculum theories, active methodologies, reflective and researching teachers, and French discourse analysis.
 
Method: This research will have a mixed approach, i.e. it will be quantitative and qualitative at the same time. It will make use of quantitative processes that require logistical and numerical proof, when we tabulate the answers to the questionnaires answered by the teachers. It will also use qualitative processes when analyzing the responses from the focus group conducted as data collection in this study.
 
Results and Discussion: This study will investigate teacher training by collecting information from the teachers themselves who work in private higher education. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to understand how the training of these educators has been carried out in order to propose new paths and strategies to enrich teaching work.
 
Research implications: One of the possible outcomes of this research will be a proposal for teacher training based on learning communities, in which there is space for discussion, creation and reflection on teaching and learning environments in higher education. Spaces for teachers to exchange and share information. U1, the university that is part of this study, already creates moments of reflection for the institution's teachers, as we will see in the course of this article.
 
Originality/Value: The discussion about the training of higher education teachers at private universities in Brazil does not have many studies investigating the pedagogical work of these professionals, so this study seeks to understand the pedagogical work and training of these specific educators.

Este artículo versa sobre el diseño de espacios para niños de 0-3 años dentro de nuestras ciudades. El proyecto recorre la infancia desde el juego al aprendizaje, desde la infancia a la lactancia, desde el diseño a la difusión, desde lo manual a lo tecnológico. La educación y el aprendizaje son los argumentos sobre los que pivota la presente propuesta, incorporando la capa tecnológica para monitorizar el espacio y aprender de ello para la modificación espacial de lo diseñado, aprendiendo del usuario final, no de los análisis iniciales. El objetivo del proyecto es construir espacios adaptativos y evolutivos para la infancia. El niño como nuevo parámetro urbano entendiendo que “una ciudad adecuada para la infancia es una ciudad adecuada para todos”. Diseñar ambientes de aprendizaje es reconocer la arquitectura como “tercer profesor” y el ambiente como elemento integral de experiencia educativa. La incorporación a los procesos de diseño y construcción mediante nuevas tecnologías, permite desarrollar espacios adaptativos y regenerativos, donde proyectar desde el conocimiento del uso real del espacio diseñado. La Inteligencia Artificial como herramienta para comprender el espacio que habitamos, y con datos obtenidos realizar sugerencias y modelos de transformación del espacio que posteriormente se producen con sistemas robóticos. Esto es posible como proyecto de investigación y construcción transdisciplinar que aúna profesores, investigadores y estudiantes de distintas ramas de conocimiento

Published: November 2024

Objective: The objective of this study is to conduct a systematic review on the surgical management of patients with liver cirrhosis, aiming to investigate strategies that can optimize perioperative care and reduce associated complications.
 
Theoretical Framework: This section addresses fundamental concepts related to liver cirrhosis, including severity classification through the Child-Pugh and MELD systems. The review considers clinical and observational studies discussing surgical interventions and multidisciplinary approaches, establishing a solid foundation for understanding the clinical context.
 
Method: The methodology employed comprises a systematic literature review, selecting studies published between 2010 and 2023. The search was conducted across six databases and supplemented by specialized literature, prioritizing surgical interventions and multidisciplinary team approaches.
 
Results and Discussion: The findings reveal significant challenges, such as elevated morbidity and mortality rates, particularly in patients classified as Child-Pugh B and C. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy emerges as the preferred approach, demonstrating lower complication rates when performed in specialized centers. The discussion contextualizes these findings within the theoretical framework, considering the study's limitations.
 
Implications of the Research: The practical implications suggest the necessity for a multidisciplinary team and careful risk assessment, emphasizing the adoption of minimally invasive surgical techniques and stringent control of ascites to enhance clinical outcomes.
 
Originality/Value: This study contributes to the literature by highlighting the complexity of surgical management in cirrhotic patients and the importance of specific strategies. The relevance of this research is underscored by the need for the development of less invasive techniques and a better understanding of the specific complications faced by these patients.

The Risk of Venous Thromboembolism Events Resulting in Hospitalization following Exposure to Antipsychotic Medication in Pre-Disposed Adult Patients
Authors: Kahle Rachel , Sjoquist Laura , Peters Lindsey
Published: November 2024

Introduction:  The primary objective of this study was to compare the incidence of antipsychotic use in those with venous thromboembolism (VTE) resulting in hospital admission. This study expands upon current knowledge regarding VTE risk and antipsychotic use and investigates potential risk factors and lab values that may precede antipsychotic-induced coagulopathy.
Methods:  This retrospective, case-control, chart review investigated patients admitted to an acute care hospital with either a VTE or non-VTE diagnosis. Primary outcome analysis compared the presence of an antipsychotic medication in patients who had a VTE versus those who did not. Secondary analysis included: 1) the duration, class, dose, frequency, and route of antipsychotic and 2) coagulation parameters, patient characteristics, and VTE risk factors.
Results: Analysis included 400 participants with 200 participants in each group (VTE and non-VTE).  Of the 51 patients who received an antipsychotic, 29 (56.9%) developed or presented with a VTE. However, there was no significant difference in VTE development between groups when controlled for antipsychotic use (OR 1.37, 95% CI 0.76-2.50, P-value=0.30).
Conclusion: While primary study findings were not statistically significant, results support a weak association of exposure to antipsychotic(s) in VTE groups compared to control (non-VTE).  Obesity significantly increased the odds of VTE whereas a history of type 2 diabetes significantly decreased the odds of VTE.
Somatization in Polypharmacy: Hiding in Plain Sight
Authors: Schuh Michael J. , Susan Garcia
Published: November 2024

Polypharmacy and somatic symptom disorder (SSD) are common conditions clinicians see every day in practice. Polypharmacy is easy to identify and causation seems to be straightforward. However, SSD may not be so obvious and may be an underlying cause of the polypharmacy that may be more difficult to identify. Identifying SSD as a potential psychiatric cause for polypharmacy and understanding that adding more medications will not adequately resolve the patient’s symptoms is important to prevent polypharmacy from being exacerbated.

Published: November 2024

Introduction: Deprescribing is a complex and pivotal process in the healthcare system that requires the involvement of different healthcare professionals as well as patients and family members. Given the multifaceted healthcare professionals involved in deprescribing, fostering interdisciplinary healthcare teams during the didactic and experiential educational engagement is imperative. Thus, this study aimed to to characterize healthcare professional students’ opinions on the importance of an interdisciplinary approach to deprescribing during the didactic and experiential components of the curriculum.
Methods:This qualitative study was conducted with healthcare professional students enrolled in a professional degree program at one Mid-South health science located in the US. Focus groups were conducted via an online platform over three months in 2022, and recruitment continued until thematic saturation was achieved.Using Thematic Analysis, the corpus of the transcribed data was imported into the Dedoose®, a qualitative software that facilitated the analysis.
Results: A total of 36 healthcare professional students participated in four focus groups.  Three themes emerged from the data: 1) setting the stage for deprescribing, 2) developing interprofessional deprescribing simulations, 3) potential positive patient outcomes. In the first theme, the healthcare professional students describe current challenges in the deprescribing process that call attention to the interprofessional nature of deprescribing. The second theme demonstrates the necessity of developing interprofessional simulations to educate healthcare professional students in the practice of deprescribing. Finally, in the third theme, the healthcare professional students illustrate the potential of interprofessional education on deprescribing to improve patient outcomes.
Conclusion:The data highlights that there was strong agreement between extant literature and health professions participants on barriers to deprescribing, including interprofessional communication issues, and on the recommendation to enact interprofessional healthcare simulation education on deprescribing. In addition, the potential benefits of increased interprofessional education will provide immeasurable benefits and create an ample understanding of the roles of health professionals. These findings suggest that deprescribing focused interprofessional healthcare simulation educational activities should be conducted and assessed.
