Arquitetura, política e desenvolvimento (1960-1964)
Authors: Bragaia Flavio Antonio D'ugo
Published: March 2024

A partir da leitura e análise das três principais revistas de arquitetura do período que vai da inauguração de Brasília até o golpe militar – 1960 a 1964 –, procuramos elencar os principais assuntos diretamente e explicitamente relacionados ao campo da política. Tratamos da maneira como as revistas abordam o crescimento das cidades, resultado do acelerado processo de industrialização e de pressões migratórias internas; em seguida, falamos sobre os debates acerca do papel dos arquitetos e urbanistas diante desse processo de crescimento, ligado à participação da categoria na implantação de um projeto de desenvolvimento. Algumas abordagens sobre a condição de subdesenvolvimento são expressas pelas revistas e, ligados ao subdesenvolvimento, por um lado, e ao crescimento acelerado das cidades, por outro, aparecem com relevo o déficit habitacional e os contrastes entre a questão da habitação e a intensa atividade do mercado imobiliário. Além disso, identificamos movimentos de construção de uma certa prática de planejamento. Planejamento e habitação eram encarados,pelas revistas consultadas, como questões técnicas e tecnológicas que deveriam ganhar mais espaço no interior do Estado, ligadas à elaboração de planos ordenadores para as cidades.
Associative analysis of the painting by G. Moro “Salome, dancing before Herod” in the novel by J.-K. Huysmans “Against Nature”
Authors: Gorbovskaya S. G.
Published: March 2024

The phenomenon of the “symbolic image” is examined using the example of the flower in Salome’s hand in Gustave Moreau’s painting “Salome Dancing before Herod” and the lotus in Salome’s hand in J.-K. Huysmans’ novel “Against the Grain.” The history of the terms ‘imago’, ‘archetype’, and ‘symbolic image’ in psychoanalysis is traced, as well as the influence of these psychoanalytic concepts on the perception of imagery in literature and painting. The relevance of the study lies in the enduring interest of literary scholars in issues related to the interplay between psychoanalysis and literature, as well as the theme of ekphrasis in literature. It is demonstrated that one of Moreau’s receptions of the “flower in Salome’s hand” became the lotus in Salome’s hand in Huysmans’ novel “Against the Grain.” It is established that Huysmans perceives Moreau’s famous phytomorph primarily as an unconscious concept of evil, anxiety, pain, illustrating his reasoning with vivid associations related to the perception of the flower in Moreau’s work. In conclusion, the author of the article points out that the imago-images of the “flower in Salome’s hand” and “lotus in Salome’s hand” become the starting impulse for creating an archetype that generates various new versions of “Salome’s flowers,” comparing lotuses and lilies in the works of H. del Casal, Elisa, and O. Wilde.
Shift in Government Policy Regarding Computer Technology Development in USSR in Late 1960s
Authors: Bodrova E. V. , Kalinov V. V.
Published: March 2024

The relevance of the study is determined by the critical importance for the Russian Federation in complex geopolitical conditions of the need to make a technological leap and ensure sovereignty, as well as the significance of studying Soviet experience in the implementation of state scientific, technical, and industrial policies. Based on declassified archival documents, issues related to the evolution of state policy in the development and production of computer technology in the late 1960s are examined. The novelty of the research lies in identifying the main trends and factors that led to both the USSR’s lag behind leading countries in this field and attempts to implement mechanisms to overcome it. A significant number of previously unpublished documents are introduced into scholarly circulation, including appeals from representatives of the scientific community to the central authorities highlighting the alarming situation. It is proven that these reports played a significant role in changing the government’s course regarding computer technology development, influencing decision-making speed and the choice of a previously tested mechanism for overcoming technological lag — borrowing. A conclusion is formulated that many recommendations from the scientific community representatives were ignored by the authorities. A departmental approach played a significant role. The decision made had far-reaching and generally negative consequences.

Text on Book Cover: Blurb as a Genre
Authors: Zoidze E. A.
Published: March 2024

This article examines the annotation to book editions as a genre of publishing discourse. The aim is to provide an overview of the existing linguistic understanding of the genre’s characteristics, its functional-pragmatic communicative specificity, as well as the features related to the linguistic and cultural traditions of book publishing. The material consists of scientific articles and monographs in Russian and English published from the early 2000s to the present, selected based on keywords. The first review of the degree of research and current directions in the study of the declared genre revealed a problem of an unsettled terminological designation of this genre both in domestic and foreign practice. An approach to differentiating existing terms is proposed and justified. The functions of texts in the genre of publishing annotation are summarized and systematized, with the functional duality of informing and persuasive impact proposed as the foundation. A small number of comparative and diachronic studies were identified, the results of which would be useful for justifying the ongoing transformation process within the studied genre, according to some linguists. The conclusion is drawn that the annotation to book editions is shifting from being a reference apparatus to the realm of marketing communication, advertising, and book promotion.
Vandalized Texts: Soft Power Potential
Authors: Kruzhkova O. V. , Babikova M. R. , Robin S. D.
Published: March 2024

Considering the increased pollution of urban spaces by vandalistic transformations, it is important to take into account the impact they have on observers. The aim of this study is to identify the potential of “soft power” in vandalized texts by determining the characteristics of their perception and memorization, taking into account the theme of the text and the linguistic device used to attract attention. The study utilizes 21 photo images of vandalized texts recorded in the urban environment of major cities in the Russian Federation, which were used as stimulus material. The research is based on the examination of the perception and memorization of vandalized texts through a laboratory experiment using an eye-tracker (sample size — 20 individuals). It was found that 19 to 67% of vandalized texts are remembered upon single exposure (13 seconds). Political texts exhibit the highest memorability, while creolized texts based on language play receive positive evaluation. The most vulnerable to the potential of “soft power” in vandalized texts is the immersive eye-catching strategy of respondents. The authors conclude that vandalized texts are easily remembered, attracting the observer’s attention through unique linguistic devices in text organization.
Penataan Mekanisme Seleksi Keanggotaan Komisi Pemilihan Umum (KPU) yang Independen Dan Partisipatif
Authors: Aldy Rinaldy
Published: March 2024

Suatu pemilihan umum yang demokratis meniscayakan adanya penyelenggara pemilu yang independen dan bebas dari campur tangan pihak manapun. Namun, fakta mengenai banyaknya komisioner KPU yang dinilai tidak netral dan terjerat kasus korupsi seolah memperkuat asumsi publik tentang rendahnya kualitas seleksi keanggotaan KPU. Penelitian ini bermaksud untuk menganalisis permasalahan dalam mekanisme seleksi keanggotaan KPU, sekaligus merumuskan gagasan penataan untuk mekanisme seleksi yang lebih independen dan partisipatif di masa depan. Dalam studi hukum normatif ini digunakan pendekatan undang-undang (statute approach) dan konseptual (conceptual approach). Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa keterlibatan DPR dalam melakukan pengujian terhadap calon anggota KPU menjadi salah  satu celah bagi masuknya anasir politik dalam seleksi keanggotaan KPU. Ke depannya, perlu meminimalisir kewenangan DPR dalam mekanisme seleksi. Pelibatan partisipasi masyarakat dalam Pembentukan panitia seleksi dan proses seleksi juga diperlukan untuk menghasilkan mekanisme seleksi yang lebih berkualitas.

The Concept for Establishing Ideal Regional Regulations for Economic Improvement in Bone District
Authors: Nurdin  , Djuniarti
Published: March 2024

This study aims to determine whether regional regulations, especially local taxes and levies related to the local revenue of Bone City, have met the criteria for making good regional regulations. By looking at the principles of making Regional Regulations starting from the preparation stage of preparing the draft Regional Regulations to ratification and promulgation in the Regional Gazette of the City of Bone. The method used in writing this thesis is a normative study with an emphasis on a normative juridical approach, namely an approach based on legislation. The results of the study indicate that in order to produce a good Regional Regulation product that is in accordance with the demands of the community's needs, it is necessary to do it based on the procedures for the preparation of Regional Regulations to be more directed and coordinated. Regional regulations that regulate Regional Original Income (PAD) have not been oriented to the interests of the community. This is revealed in the research that in every consideration and general explanation of Regional Regulations, the expectation of the formation of Regional Regulations is to increase Regional Original Income (PAD), so that it seems that Regional Regulations regarding user fees tend to burden the community with various tariffs for which there is no clear standard of loading. Regional regulations are made based on the way of thinking that every public service must be charged with a number of tarifs, which should be a regional regulation as a means of regulation to provide convenience for the community in developing their business.

Pelanggaran hak buruh di Indonesia menjadi isu sentral dalam hubungan ketenagakerjaan Lumrahnya pelanggaran hak-hak buruh menuntut eksistensi Konfederasi Serikat Pekerja sebagai organisasi yang dibentuk dari, oleh, dan untuk buruh baik di perusahaan maupun di luar perusahaan, yang bersifat bebas, terbuka, mandiri, demokratis, dan bertanggung jawab guna memperjuangkan, membela serta melindungi hak dan kepentingan maupun kesejahteraan buruh. Untuk itu, penelitian ini di orientasikan dalam bentuk penelitian empiris normatif yang berupaya mengamati ketentuan peraturan perundang-undangan dari aspek hak dan kewajiban buruh dan pengusaha beserta penegakan hukumya dan pengamatan secara langsung di Konfederasi Serikat Pekerja Maros dalam perananya membela hak dan kepentingan buruh di Kabupaten Maros. Kesimpulan dalam penelitian ini bahwa hubungan ketenagakerjaan menggariskan adanya hak dan kewajiban yang tidak dapat di pisahkan sebagai kausalitas yang pasti, sehingga perselisihan hak dan kewajiban antar buruh dan pengusaha menghendaki penegakan hukum yang dapat di tempuh di luar pengadilan melalui penyelesaian Bipartit dan mediasi maupun penyelesaian litigasi melalui lembaga peradilan. Di samping itu, keberadaan KSPI Maros sangat berperan dalam hubungan industrial dan upaya-upaya penyelesaian perselisihan hak buruh melalui Bipartit, mediasi dan pengadilan.

Konstruksi Hukum Hak Cipta Bagi Lagu Nasional
Authors: Hadi Putra Wayan Supria , Kurniawan I Gede Agus
Published: March 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan menjawab dua isu hukum, yaitu implikasi kekosongan hukum pengaturan hak cipta bagi lagu nasional dan formulasi ke depan konstruksi hukum hak cipta bagi lagu nasional. Urgensi dari penelitian ini yaitu mengisi kekosongan hukum melalui konstruksi hukum supaya dapat memberikan perlindungan hak cipta bagi lagu nasional. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian hukum normatif dengan mengedepankan pendekatan konsep dan perundang-undangan. Hasil penelitian menegaskan bahwa implikasi kekosongan hukum pengaturan hak cipta bagi lagu nasional yaitu tidak mendapatkan jaminan kepastian hukum mengenai perlindungan hukum akan hak cipta padahal lagu nasional juga memiliki pencipta yang seyogyanya dapat dipenuhi hak moral dan ekonominya. Selain itu, perlindungan hukum belum diberikan oleh negara bagi pencipta lagu nasional, padahal lagu nasional diciptakan untuk memupuk semangat kebangsaan warga negara serta tidak secara langsung berorientasi ekonomis sebagaimana lagu pada umumnya. Formulasi pengaturan ke depan terhadap hak cipta bagi lagu nasional yaitu dengan mengacu pada metode konstruksi hukum analogi yaitu mengatur hak cipta lagu nasional sebagaimana hak cipta ekspresi kebudayaan tradisional yang menekankan pentingnya peran negara untuk melakukan pemeliharaan, penjagaan, dan inventarisasi terhadap lagu nasional. Selain itu, peran negara juga penting khususnya dengan melakukan revisi atas ketentuan UU HC dengan memberikan ruang bagi perlindungan hak cipta bagi lagu nasional sekaligus merumuskan kebijakan insentif dari negara kepada pencipta lagu nasional supaya mendapatkan apresiasi dan mendapatkan hak ekonomis dan hak moral dari penciptaan lagu nasional.

Dialektika Praktik Perubahan Konstitusi Melalui Penafsiran Hakim dan Kebiasaan Ketatanegaraan Pasca Reformasi
Authors: Naufaldi Hidayat Rayhan , Oktari Tanti
Published: March 2024

Gelombang reformasi tahun 1998 di Indonesia menjadi titik awal dimulainya perubahan mendasar terhadap sistem ketatanegaraan. Perubahan norma-norma konstitusi pada akhirnya dilaksanakan dengan prosedur amendemen formal melalui Majelis Permusyawaratan Rakyat. Upaya demokratis tersebut didasarkan pada ketentuan Pasal 37 UUD NRI 1945 yang mengatur perihal prasyarat dan tata cara perubahan pasal per pasal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji dinamika yang terjadi terhadap siklus perubahan konstitusi sebagai ikhtiar negara Indonesia menuju konsep ideal negara hukum demokratis pasca reformasi. Metode penelitian yang digunakan yaitu penelitian hukum doktrinal dengan basis utama aspek doktrin mengenai perubahan norma konstitusi, kemudian dikaitkan dengan fakta praktis sebagai dialektika di tengah-tengah kehidupan bernegara pasca reformasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perubahan UUD NRI 1945 pasca reformasi belum usai dan masih terus berlangsung. Akan tetapi, tata cara yang digunakan sudah tidak lagi berdasarkan sistem amendemen formal dengan mengubah pasal-pasal melalui Majelis Permusyawaratan Rakyat, melainkan banyak terjadi dengan cara penafsiran konstitusional oleh hakim dan kebiasaan ketatanegaraan. Tiga aspek yang menjadi penyebabnya, yaitu rijiditas prosedur pada ketentuan Pasal 37 UUD NRI 1945, pembentukan Mahkamah Konstitusi dan praktik ketatanegaraan yang terus berkembang. Implikasi praktis daripadanya ialah prosedur amendemen formal mulai ditinggalkan dan beralih pada penafsiran konstitusional serta kebiasaan. Formulasi norma tidak lagi mengalami perubahan, tetapi pemaknaan dan pengaplikasian terhadapnya dikembangkan secara pesat untuk menyesuaikan dengan kebutuhan ketatanegaraan. Oleh karena itu, perlu dilengkapi dengan penentuan cetak biru tujuan negara Indonesia secara normatif beserta penegakan etika konstitusi agar tren praktik tersebut tidak melenceng dari cita bangsa Indonesia atas dasar Pancasila.

Mapas cromáticos un instrumento para aplicar el uso del color de la naturaleza para el diseño
Authors: Cervantes Baqué Adolfo Alberto
Published: March 2024

Este artículo se basa en la investigación “Cromáticas Biomiméticas” y se muestran aquí algunas de las conclusiones de un proceso investigativo de más de 6 años de búsqueda sobre el tema de cómo la naturaleza al manifestarse en los organismos propone combinaciones cromáticas de muy diversa índole, pero que en la mayoría de los casos resultan ser opciones coherentes y armónicas a la percepción humana y por tanto, pueden ser adecuadas para su aplicación al diseño. En particular, se destaca que no solo los colores seleccionados con precisión, las áreas sobre las cuales son aplicados, sus vecindades y la descripción de mapas cuando los colores se distribuyen sobre formas geométricas distintivas son factores importantes en el procedimiento de aplicación de los colores de la naturaleza al diseño.
Mental toughness and empathy as match performance predictors of high-level female basketball players
Authors: Milošević Miloš , Zarić Ivan , Dopsaj Milivoj , Ristić Irena , Sheard Michael
Published: March 2024

Study aim: The aim of this study was to explore empathy and mental toughness as predictors of match performance of young basketball players.

Material and methods: The correlation design was used in order to meet the research goals. The research was conducted on a sample of 40 female basketball players, with average age of 16.15 ± 1.02 years, members of the four best teams of the National First Women’s Cadet League. Half of the players in the sample were also national team members. The independent variables empathy and mental toughness were assessed with the Interpersonal Reactivity Index and Sports Mental Toughness Questionnaire. The dependent variable match performance was assessed through match performance analysis based on indicators from official league statistics by calculating the performance index rating (PIR).

Results: The results of the hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that by adding empathy to the model of mental toughness, the percentage of PIR variance explained increased from 21% to 46%.

Conclusion: Adding empathy to the model of mental toughness increased its predictive value. The model of mental toughness and empathy, as predictors of match performance of young basketball players, was found to be very effective. The results are not unambiguous and indicate the need for further research in this area, as it could have a positive impact on the selection system in sport. Also, the research represents a step towards greater integration of sports and collective creativity studies.
When Language is Played: Looking into Linguistic Creativity through Language Play
Authors: Heidari-Shahreza Mohammad Ali
Published: March 2024

This article opens a window on linguistic creativity through an in-depth discussion of language play. To this aim, language play is initially conceptualized from a socio-cognitive perspective. ‘Language play for fun’ and ‘language play for practice’ as two dominant approaches in the relevant literature are, then, touched upon. Afterward, the paper elucidates how language play, in its various manifestations, can inform and influence linguistic creativity. In this respect, a theoretical (linguistic) and a socio-pragmatic perspective are presented. In particular, the paper addresses the possibility of playing to ‘language’ outside the box (i.e., to go beyond the conventional systemic constraints of language). Highlighting the ubiquity of language play, it also considers Wittgenstein’s notion of ‘language games’ (or Sprachspiele). Furthermore, the performative power of playful creativity to make and ‘unmake’ language in society is elaborated on. The article contends that language play may offer valuable insights to extend the borders of linguistic creativity. This argument is further developed under the purview of ‘complexity theory,’ ‘soft computing,’ and ‘computational linguistic creativity.’ Finally, the paper advocates an ‘integrated science’ approach to advance play-based research on linguistic creativity.
Assessment of Hip Joint Function and Limb Load in Patients after Cementless Hip Arthroplasty During 14-day Rehabilitation
Authors: Krawczyk-Suszek Marlena , Martowska Blanka , Wrotny Adam , Płocki Jędrzej
Published: March 2024

Background

Arthoplasty is a surgical procedure consisting in replacing a natural joint altered by the disease process with an artificial joint. This surgery allows you to restore the lost function of the hip joint. Comprehensive rehabilitation plays an essential role after surgery.

Objectives

The aim of the study was to assess the impact of rehabilitation on patients on the 1st and 14th day of rehabilitation after cementless hip arthroplasty on the load on the operated limb and to assess the function of the hip joint.

Material and methods

The studies were performed on a group of 44 patients with post-surgery rehabilitation.The studies were performed twice: on the 1st and 14th day of rehabilitation. The standardized questionnaires was used: Harris Hip Score and WOMAC. The reaction of ground forces was assessed using the Alpha stabilometric platform.

Results

The average point value indicated on the Harris Scale significantly increased in the measurement on the 14th day of rehabilitation by 8.57 ± 6.56 points (p < 0.001). On the other hand, the WOMAC Scale showed a decrease in point values in the second measurement by 9.67 ± 6.76 points (p < 0.001). A significant increase in the average load on the operated lower limb by 3.68 ± 3.18% was indicated as measured on the 14th day of rehabilitation (p < 0.001). The difference between the average load of the right and left limbs in the measurement on the first day of rehabilitation was an average of 9.77%, while on the fourteenth day of rehabilitation the difference between the average load of the right and left limbs decreased to an average of 3.5%.

Conclusions

Postsurgery rehabilitation allows to obtain physiological load ranges of the lower limbs, striving for a 50% share in the load of each of the lower limbs. The effectiveness of the implemented rehabilitation is confirmed on the basis of the analysed limb load parameters and the analysis of patients’ subjective assessments made using standardized questionnaires.
Vaping in the Age of Pandemic – A Narrative Review
Authors: Znyk Małgorzata , Lewicka Małgorzata , Kaleta Dorota
Published: March 2024

Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) are devices that heat a liquid to create an aerosol that is inhaled by the user. The liquid may contains nicotine, flavorings and other chemicals such as propylene glycol, glycerol or diacetyl. Since their entrance to the market in 2003, e-cigarette use has risen rapidly, especially among young people. Recent studies indicate that e-cigarettes are not harmless and safe alternatives to combustible conventional tobacco, especially with regard to their effects on cardiovascular and lung diseases.

Objective

This study aimed to explore scientific research on the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 infection rates/the severity of COVID-19 and vaping.

Methods

A bibliometric analysis of articles indexes in PubMed, Scopus and ClinicalKey, published in English from 2020 to 2022 was undertaken.

Results

Most of the research revealed the fact that because the COVID-19 virus affects the respiratory tract and has ability to increase angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) expression in the lungs, e-cigarette use may rise the risk of infection or severity of outcomes due to COVID-19.

Conclusion

E-cigarette use may have adverse effects and further research is needed to elucidate the impact of e-cigarette consumption on human health in he event of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The significant increase in e-cigarette use in the near future and the impact of COVID-19 may increase the burden of chronic disease.

Published: March 2024

Background

Pneumonia remains a frequent respiratory disease that occurs in people of all ages; however, its impact is particularly significant in geriatric population. It leads to severe complications and increased mortality rates. The clinical features in the elderly may be atypical, thus causing difficulties in the diagnostic process and possible treatment delays.

Aim of the study

The study was designed to provide an overview of pneumonia, focusing on differences in the clinical picture, diagnosis, and prevention in the elderly.

Material and Methods

The article is based on 51 articles published between 2008 and 2023, found in electronic databases Google Scholar and PubMed.

Results

Age-related changes in immune and respiratory systems such as impaired cough reflex, reduced lung function, or lower immune cell production lead to increased susceptibility to infections. Comorbidities, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, and heart diseases, increase the risk of pneumonia significantly. Radiographic examinations and laboratory tests are useful tools in differentiating pneumonia from other conditions. Vaccination is proven to perform a crucial role in pneumonia prevention.

Conclusions

This review synthesizes the existing knowledge of pneumonia in the elderly including epidemiology, risk factors, symptoms, and management. By enhancing the understanding of pneumonia in geriatric patients, healthcare professionals are able to improve diagnostic accuracy and tailor treatment strategies to reduce the burden of the disease.

This study aims to investigate (1) whether farmers in Dolok Batu Nanggar Sub-district have comprehended trade zakat, (2) whether they possess the awareness to fulfill their agricultural zakat obligations, and (3) what reasons underlie the non-payment of agricultural zakat among them. Employing a qualitative approach, the research was conducted in Dolok Batu Nanggar Sub-district, Simalungun Regency. The study participants were fifteen rice farmers who met the nisab threshold for agricultural zakat. The primary focus was on understanding their awareness regarding agricultural zakat payment. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and document analysis, and analyzed through techniques including data collection, reduction, presentation, and verification. Findings revealed that while farmers in Dolok Batu Nanggar Sub-district possessed a basic understanding of agricultural zakat, they lacked comprehensive knowledge regarding its calculation, rates, and nisab. Moreover, there was a low level of awareness among these farmers regarding their agricultural zakat obligations. Of the fifteen informants, only three (20%) had paid their agricultural zakat, while the remaining twelve (80%) had not. Reasons for non-payment included insufficient understanding of agricultural zakat, prioritization of personal matters, and perception of insufficient harvest yield.

Objective: The aim of this research is to analyze the factors that influence small traders' decisions in borrowing money from loan sharks.
 
Method: This research uses Behavioral Planning Theory (TPB) as a quantitative analysis framework.
 
Results and Discussion: The results of data processing show that the financial behavior of small traders is influenced by factors such as ease of loans, disbursement without time constraints, social communication, payment flexibility, and other social dimensions. The research results provide insight into the complex dynamics of small traders' financial behavior and provide a basis for finding relevant and sustainable solutions in increasing fairer financial access at the community level.
 
Research Implications: This research investigates the financial behavior of small traders who interact with moneylenders in the context of communal finance. Amid intense market competition, small traders face financial differentiation, creating complexity in their financial behavior. Limited access to finance and the complex role of moneylenders makes it difficult for small traders to manage debt.
 
Originality/Value: This research can help design better policies to support the economic sustainability of small traders and overcome the financial challenges they face.

Pretrial Regarding Termination of the Investigation
Authors: Berlian Simarmata  , Elizabeth Ghozali
Published: March 2024

An initial investigation is an action that precedes an investigation, so it must be seen as an integral and inseparable part of the investigation. The initial investigation aims to determine whether an event that is suspected of being a criminal act is a criminal act or not. If the results of the initial investigation conclude that the incident that occurred constituted a crime, then an investigation can be followed up to make the crime clearer and clearer. If the initial investigation is stopped, it will automatically stop the investigation, so the termination of the investigation must be considered a termination of the initial investigation and can become the object of pretrial.
Politics of State Survival and the Dilemma of Nation-Building in Post-Independence Nigeria
Authors: Animashaun, Bashir Olalekan  , Borisade, Olaiya Micheal
Published: March 2024

The prevalence of a fractionalized international environment coupled with the fractured African geopolitical landscape and Nigeria's colonial antecedents laden with myriad unresolved structural challenges during the emergence of Nigerian statehood provided the vortex of post-colonial state survival inclination for the country. The above is usually associated with a typically hugely populated and ethno-culturally heterogeneous society, and it renders the country fatigued with the burden of nation-building. Thus, the twin-challenges of state-survival and nation-building have occupied and dominated the political and socio-economic affairs of post-independence Nigeria. The notion of state survival is a realist paradigm which compels nation-states to use all the instruments at their disposal to seek the retention of their national identity within the precarious and predatory international system. Nation building, on the other hand, entails the process of forging a common identity and a sense of national empathy, shared values, and cultures constituting a state. This paper contends that while the pursuit of state survival is propelled by the external environment in which Nigeria emerged and intricately subsists, the structural challenges inherited at independence, no doubt raised the task of nation-building. As complimentary as the two challenges featured and influenced the nation's policy commitments towards the local and international environments, a cursory examination of Nigeria's socio-economic and political trajectories since independence reveal that state survival has often been aggressively pursued at the expense of nation-building resulting into structural volatility which inadvertently threatened the nation's survival prospects. The position of this paper is that efforts should be made to balance these two ultimate challenges in the quest to reposition Nigeria towards the path of greatness.
