Agreement of the heirs in the distribution of inheritance in the Gayo Community
Authors: Jumadiah Hamdani
Published: December 2021

In the distribution of inheritance, the share of each heir has been clearly determined in the Islamic Shari'a with a ratio of 2:1 between male and female heirs. However, in practice, in Gayo communities, the distribution of inheritance is carried out by agreement of the heirs by not following the literal provisions in the Qur'an. The results of the study found that the distribution of inheritance by agreement of the heirs in the Gayo community is carried out after an explanation and determination of the size of the heirs' rights in accordance with Islamic Shari'a. The division of inheritance by agreement of the heirs is justified by Syara'. Factors that influence the distribution of inheritance by agreement of heirs in the Gayo community include adat and reusam as kinship ties in the Gayo community are very strong, the female heirs who look after and care for the testator in their old age and when they are sick, women also work like men in meeting household needs, some of the heirs are already economically established and one of the parents of the heirs is still alive.

Published: December 2021

Objective The 2012 American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (ASCCP) guidelines were developed to provide guidance regarding cervical pathology and to minimize overtreatment of lesions that may resolve spontaneously. We aimed to evaluate the adherence to these guidelines with referrals for colposcopy at a large academic center and to understand the factors associated with incorrect referrals.Methods This retrospective observational study involved women referred to the Virginia Commonwealth University for colposcopy or loop electrosurgical excision procedure from January 2015 to December 2016.Results Referral requests from 430 women were reviewed. Among these, 17.4% were discordant with the ASCCP guidelines. The most common discordant colposcopy referrals were low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (48%) and atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (29%). The possibility of incorrect referrals was decreased among highgrade lesions (odds ratio [OR], 0.03), while it was increased in women aged <25 years (OR, 31.6) and in those referred by family medicine (OR, 3.6) or internal medicine (OR, 4.4). Ten patients were referred for cervical cytology results of samples collected from the vaginal cuffs despite hysterectomies performed for benign lesions.Conclusion Patients referred outside of the guidelines were most often women aged <25 years with low-grade lesions. Referrals outside evidence-based guidelines may lead to unnecessary procedures and additional healthcare expenses. Our results help identify the areas for provider education and potential areas of concern regarding the implementation of the 2019 ASCCP guideline updates.

Published: December 2021

Jesus asked his disciples, saying, “Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?” (Matt. 16:13, Mark. 8:27), then John the Baptist was the top answer, followed by Elijah, Jeremiah. This study uses a biblical study of the meaning of the whom do men say (general opinion) by using a qualitative writing method that is studied by biblical exegesis supported by various sources related to this research. Here it is found that public opinion greatly influences one's personal belief and confession of their faith in Jesus Christ. There is a meaning behind the rejection of Jesus' messiahship by carrying the popular John the Baptist figure. Perhaps if he announced himself as the Messiah, and waged a rebellion against the Roman empire which was colonizing Israelit at that time, it would be inconceivable if that happened. Researchers found the answer that the importance of personal spiritual experience closely with God between times when the truth became unpopular. By adhering to the Word of God, the Church of God can stand firm which is built on a solid rock foundation (Petra), namely Jesus Himself.

Research on Three-point Bending Mechanical Performance of Square Tube Structure Filled with Foam Aluminum
Authors: YANG Kun , SHA Yunjie , YU Tao
Published: December 2021

In this paper, the quasi-static three-point bending experiments are carried out to study the deformation behavior of square tube and square tube filled with foam aluminum. The difference of bending deformation mode, loading characteristics and energy absorption efficiency between tube and foam aluminum filled tube is compared. And the influence of adhesive between the foam aluminum core and the tube wall on the bending deformation of square tube filled with foam aluminum is analyzed. Based on the bending super beam element model of tube structure, the relationship between the moment and rotation of square tube filled with foam aluminum under transverse static loading is analyzed. And the formula for calculating the moment and rotation angle of square tube filled with foam aluminum at three-point bending is obtained. In order to compare the simulation results, theoretical calculation results and experimental results of quasi-static bending, the three-point bending deformation of square tube and filled with foam aluminum under quasi-static and impact loading is simulated by finite element method. The results show that the filling of foam aluminum can improve the bearing capacity and energy absorption performance of the square tube structure. Under the bending load, the deformation degree of the bearing section is greatly reduced, which increases the bearing capacity of the structure and increases the stability of its bending resistance.
Über die Koexistenz von Polarisierung und Kooperation
Authors: Itten Anatol
Published: December 2021

Polarisierung war zwar schon immer ein Teil der modernen Geschichte, doch werden deren negative Konsequenzen wie Hassrede, Online-Belästigungen und andere Feindseligkeiten zunehmend als Gefahr für den Zusammenhalt von Gesellschaften angesehen. Auch sehnen sich viele Nutzer im Online-Bereich nach mehr zivilisierten Gesprächen. Dieser Beitrag befasst sich mit dem möglichen Szenario, dass sich Polarisierung vorerst nicht abschwächt, und setzt sich daher mit der produktiven Nutzung der Polarisierung auseinander. Anders ausgedrückt: Unter welchen Umständen können politisch stark gespaltene Gesellschaften Mittel und Wege finden, diese unüberbrückbaren Gegensätze produktiv zu verwalten? Anhand von drei Fallstudien, der Plattform ChangeMyView, Wikipedia und der Entwicklung von automatisierten Moderatoren, veranschaulicht dieser Beitrag nicht nur die Vielfalt der Polarisierung, sondern zeigt auf, dass politisch gespaltene Gesellschaften trotz des Potenzials für Konflikte auch zu sozialem Lernen, erhöhter Präzision in Entscheidungen und dem Abbau von verbitterten Animositäten fähig sind. Die Koexistenz von Polarisierung und produktiver gesellschaftlicher Kooperation ist erstens auf zentrale kulturelle und institutionelle Faktoren zurückzuführen, zweitens auf Design- und Regelwerke für Online-Plattformen, insbesondere die der demokratische Deliberation, sowie drittens auf deren konsequente und moderierte Anwendung.
Strukturelle, kommunikative und edukative Depolarisierung: Wege zur Stärkung der Demokratie
Authors: Pausch Markus
Published: December 2021

Seit einigen Jahren beobachten wir eine starke gesellschaftliche und politische Polarisierung, die Gefahren für die Demokratie mit sich bringt. Ihre Ursachen sind vielfältig. Strukturelle Ungleichheiten treiben sie voran und werden von polarisierenden Akteur*innen ideologisch aufgeladen. In ihren Zielen und Methoden können diese demokratisch oder antidemokratisch bzw. autoritär orientiert sein. Die antidemokratische Polarisierung führt zum Ende des Dialogs und in letzter Konsequenz zur Anwendung und Legitimierung von Gewalt. Um diesen gefährlichen Entwicklungen durch Depolarisierung entgegenzuwirken, sind verschiedene Ebenen zu bearbeiten. Auf der strukturellen Ebene müssen Ungleichheiten beseitigt werden. Kommunikativ sind Dialogforen zu fördern und Demokratieerfahrungen stärker zu ermöglichen. Und als eine Form der Frühprävention sind die Stärkung der Demokratiekompetenzen der Bürger*innen und deren Empowerment von zentraler Bedeutung.
European Arrest Warrants and Minimum Standards for Trials in absentia – Blind Trust vs. Transnational Direct Effect?
Authors: Böse Martin
Published: December 2021

The right of the accused person to be present at the trial and defend himself in person forms an essential part of the right to a fair trial. In this regard, the minimum standard enshrined in Art. 6 ECHR has been further developed by the minimum rules on procedural rights established by the EU legislator. According to a recent judgment of the Union’s Court of Justice, the Framework Decision on the European Arrest Warrant still allows the executing state to surrender a person convicted in absentia even if the EU minimum standard is not met. This paper will argue that common minimum standards have repercussions on cross-border cooperation based on mutual recognition and may emerge as a ground for refusal.

Authors: Haghjoo Roghayeh , Sadrnezhaad Seyed Khatiboleslam , Hassanzadeh Nemati Nahid
Published: December 2021

: The present study applied a TiO2 nanocoating on a titanium foam substrate produced by powder metallurgy through magnetron sputtering. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were employed to investigate the surface morphologies of the porous specimens and pre- and post-coating phases, respectively. Also, the growth and proliferation of MG-63 cells (osteoblasts) and their attachment and proliferation on the coated porous titanium specimen (relative to the uncoated specimens) were studied using in vitro and methyl thiazol tetrazolium (MTT) cytotoxicity tests. Considering the porous macrostructure of the coated titanium specimen and the nanostructure of the TiO2 coating on the porous surface and macro-pore walls, the coated specimen was found to be effective in the biocompatibility improvement of dental and orthopedic implants.
Peer-to-Peer lending, financial bootstrapping and government support: The role of innovation mediation on MSME performance
Authors: Rita Maria , Widi Nugrahanti , Budi Kristanto
Published: December 2021

This study aims to examine whether Peer-to-Peer (P2P) lending, financial bootstrapping and government support affect the performance of Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) by adding a mediating variable in the form of innovation. Innovation mediation is expected to be able to optimize the influence of government funding and incentives towards improving business performance. This study used an SEM-PLS analysis technique. The study samples were the MSMEs located in the city of Salatiga - Central Java, Indonesia. The results showed that P2P lending and financial bootstrapping had a positive effect on business performance and innovation. While government support had a positive effect on innovation, on the one hand, it had no effect on business performance, on the other. Innovation itself is proven to have an influence on business performance. This study also finds that innovation mediates the effect of P2P lending on business performance, facilitates the effect of financial bootstrapping on business performance and reconciles the effect of government support on business performance.
Digital nostalgia: Marketing strategy for transforming the new into the old
Authors: Baltezarević Radoslav , Milić Mladen
Published: December 2021

Causing nostalgic feelings in consumers has long been a very effective means of influencing their shopping behavior. Lately, and probably under the influence of a crisis situation caused by a pandemic, in which people are generally more concerned about the existence of their family members and themselves, this marketing strategy seems to have an even stronger impact. The use of nostalgia in a virtual environment is especially interesting. Although seemingly incompatible, the digital environment has proven to be very adequate for the application of these methods. Today, a large number of applications offer the possibility of converting new digital photos and video content into old ones (with the help of various filters), the topic of streaming movie and TV shows content is increasingly placed in some earlier eras, which did not bypass the video game industry. Consumers who once enjoyed the virtual world of video games, as young people, can now reanimate the feelings of old times, although in a new way and mostly surrounded by young generations, who also enjoy such achievements, only their motives are different, but still very strong.
The fate of missing persons and the state's possibilities in resolving this issue
Authors: Milović Marko , Krstić Ljiljana
Published: December 2021

The issue of the fate of missing persons is a painful topic for many families who, even after so many years, even decades, know nothing about their loved ones, and for the state a long-standing problem that cannot be solved by objective reasons alone. As time goes on, it is certain that there is less and less hope to find out where the missing persons were buried and possibly how they died. The paper points out the genesis of this issue, which is somehow very characteristic of the Balkans and which has its roots in decades. It is known that many families did not heal their wounds and overcome the losses of their relatives even from the Second World War, and new tragedies and new wounds of the 1990s on the same issue have already arrived. It was pointed out how many missing persons and graves there are today throughout the former Yugoslavia, and especially the obstruction by the leaders of some states that have been created in the meantime, including the temporary institutions of self-government in AP Kosovo and Metohija, which prevent solve.

The ECJ's Coman judgment: Recognition of same-sex marriage indirectly?
Authors: Petrović Milena
Published: December 2021

In the Coman case, the European Court of Justice was asked whether the term "spouse" - for the purpose of EU law - includes the same-sex spouse of an EU citizen who has moved between EU Member States. The ECJ answered this question affirmatively, holding that a refusal to recognise a same-sex marriage and the resultant refusal to grant family reunification rights to a Union citizen who moves to another Member State, would constitute an unjustified restriction on the right to free movement that Union citiyens enjoy under EU law. This case comment analyses the judgment, arguing that the Court's pronouncement is a very welcome first step towards marriage equality at a cross-border level in the EU. At the same time, the case poses a number of important questions, which will only be answered in case law and practice in the years to come.
Third party funding and access to justice
Authors: Lazić Milan , Savić Milica
Published: December 2021

The purpose of this paper to analyze whether and to what extent are third-party funding and access to justice intertwined and compatible. The analysis started from recognizing most common challenges with third-party funding and whether these challenges may be overcome with existing regulation and guidelines. Global lack of regulation of this subject is noticeable. This increases the risks of having undisclosed conflict of interests between various participants and affects the confidentiality, efficiency and fairness of the proceedings and ultimately the access to justice considerations. Although third party funding undoubtedly contributes to larger access to justice, an unregulated market of this kind may also draw adverse inference to the access to justice. In conclusion, authors of this paper call for wider regulation of this matter, including both through local legislation and arbitration rules.
Testimony of Eusebius of Caesarea on the origin of hellenic philosophy
Authors: Petrović Predrag
Published: December 2021

Adjective Hellenic represents the usual national determinant for the overall philosophical thought of the ancient world. Hellenes' commitment to recording philosophical thoughts and historical events is really fascinating, but deeply problematic. We have noticed that the ancient writers dealt incomparably more with the originality of the so-called Hellenic thought than the official representatives of the present-day science do. In the writings of Eusebius of Caesarea, we witness a special commitment to this topic, which is why we cite his testimonies collected not only from Christian writings, but also from philosophical sources and traditions still alive in his time. From the attached material we can conclude that the adjective Hellenic m aybe called into question in the final determination of the origin of the basic philosophical principles of the ancient world. We find it useful to point out the present-day problematic use of the phrase Hellenic philosophy as to the domesticated terminus tehnicus (like the "ancient Greeks"). In the background of the mentioned syntagm, we recognize the centuries long attempt to im - pose a certain life paradigm in trying to change life orientation among our people, too. At this historical moment when the Christological paradigm of existence is being most seriously questioned, we must be aware of every spiritual and historical change that has occurred as a result of our insufficient ecclesiology, which has opened the way to insufficiently verified " facts" about God, man and the world around us.
Pseudoepigraph 'Epistula Apostolorum' and its place in the development of early church theology
Authors: Đakovac Aleksandar
Published: December 2021

The Epistle Apostolorum is a pseudo-epigraph created in the middle of the second century, which provides opportunities for insight into the developmental path of Christian theology. In this paper, we will try to show how the Christians of the first centuries tried to express their faith and the content of the tradition. The goal was to preserve both divine unity and divine multiplicity, while at the same time opposing Gnostic speculations and doctrinal attitudes. This process was not easy, nor was it devoid of many temptations and deviations, which this document confirms. It is precisely the theological shortcomings and ambiguities that we observe in this writing that can help us better understand the achievements of later generations of Church Fathers and theologians.
Origen's Influence on Augustine's teaching of time
Authors: Jovanović Stefan
Published: December 2021

The question of time represents the litmus paper on which we can see the underlying ontological view of the author. Reconsideration of influences on this field can help us in better understanding of movement of main thought during the time of the orthodox theology formulation. In our research we have been dedicated to finding the connection and influence between Origen and blessed Augustine. This kind of research can help us improve our overview of theological relations between East and West during the first 4 centuries, because it questions the connection between two great names from history of theology. We will see how, with the help of semantic analysis, the connection between the two theologians is being established. Origens teaching of time represents one creative attempt to formulate Christian understandings in a language of different philosophical schools. In perceiving new influences on Augustines understanding of time, we can contribute to clearer consideration of his thought, which, in the words of Otten, has the strongest implicit influence in Western theology of the early middle age, and in our opinion, that influence is extended all up until today
Synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of three novel n-heteroaromatic hydrazonyl-thiazoles
Authors: Kokanov Sanja , Nikolić Milan , Novaković Irena , Todorović Tamara , Filipović Nenad
Published: December 2021

(Thiazolyl-2-yl)hydrazones (THs) are a group of organic compounds containing both hydrazone and 1,3-thiazole pharmacophores present in many approved drugs. They have been investigated greatly in recent years due to potent anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, antituberculosis, anti-inflammatory, and antiparasitic activities. In this study, one pyridine-based and two quinoline-based, novel THs were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). The antimicrobial activity of the compounds was tested against five Gram-positive and five Gram-negative bacteria, as well as against three fungi. The antioxidant capacity of the compounds was tested in six antioxidative assays. The results showed that quinoline-based THs were more active against tested Gram-negative bacteria and fungi strains than pyridine-based compounds. All the compounds showed excellent antioxidative activity comparable to or greater than the used standards (vitamin C and Trolox). Absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) parameters were calculated in-silico. Results pointed to promising good pharmacokinetics profiles of investigated compounds, especially 2-quinoline carboxaldehyde-based compound, which can be a lead drug candidate.
Combinative distance based assessment (CODAS) framework using logarithmic normalization for multi-criteria decision making
Authors: Biswas Sanjib , Pamucar Dragan
Published: December 2021

The purpose of this paper is to present an extended Combinative Distance based Assessment (CODAS) framework using logarithmic normalization (LN) scheme. LN is useful in the situations where criteria values differ significantly. This framework is used to carry out a comparative performance based ranking of the popular smartphones in India. The result obtained from this extended version of CODAS method (CODAS-LN) shows consistency with that generated by using some other established multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) approaches. The sensitivity analysis shows considerable stability in the result. Further, it is observed that CODAS-LN is free from rank reversal phenomenon and follows the transitivity property. Findings of the case study suggest that the smartphones with higher computational capability and features rank in top brackets.
Innovative design of waste processing technologies
Authors: Safronova Natalya , Khaibrakhmanova Gulnaz
Published: December 2021

Designing modern waste recycling systems is an urgent problem. The experience of attracting masters from two leading Russian universities in organizing interaction and cooperation in the development and implementation of waste sorting complexes is considered. Faculties of Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration and Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology held a project session for developing and launching innovative technological projects on the market called "Techno marketing". The developed methodological base made it possible to combine educational and entrepreneurial tasks and ensure the promotion of student technological projects. As a result of the conducted project session, a project on the use of computer vision systems for sorting waste was developed, the competitive differences of the project and its technical and economic indicators were presented. The mechanisms for the implementation of an innovative waste sorting project have been determined. Despite being twice as expensive, the waste sorting machine is able to fully pay off 3 times faster than manual sorting, justifying further investment in the project.

Authors: Mihajlov-Carević Miroslava , Milojević Nataša , Rešić Sead
Published: December 2021

The twenty-first century has brought the growing use of information and communication technologies in many spheres of human life. Also in education. In the learning process, students are increasingly focused on the use of modern technologies and software packages. Exploring the quality of maths teaching in primary school, we found students' knowledge of using modern technologies but also the lack of visual-logical approach in solving mathematical problems. In this paper, we show how the establishment of figurative numbers and selected examples that demonstrate the observation of legality, can direct students to a visual-logical approach to solving tasks with sets of numbers. We organized a three-hour exercise in experimental and control group, during which the experimental group was working with figurative numbers and the control group with selected examples. On the pre-test both groups showed a low degree of ability to observe legality among the numbers. On the post-test, both groups achieved progress compared to the pre-test, although the experimental group achieved greater progress. The research has shown that dealing with figurative numbers and selected examples that demonstrate the observation of legality, contributes to the development of pupils' abilities to perceive the laws of numbers and to apply the laws observed to solving problems with sets and arrays of numbers.

Authors: Alexandrovich Sluka , Zabitovich Sarkarov , Magomedovich Eldarov
Published: December 2021

This paper addresses issues of beautifying the capital of Dagestan, Makhachkala, and boosting nature conservation in that city. An insight is provided into the following characteristics of the city's socio-economic and environmental development: the prevalence of haphazard rather than consistent patterns in the development of the living environment of Makhachkala residents and an extreme lack of funding for nature conservation activities. The four key sites within Makhachkala's potential "green shield" are (1) Eltav Forest in the northwest; (2) the Caspian Sea with its sandy beaches in the northeast; (3) Lake Ak-Gel in the southeast; (4) Tarki-Tau Mountain in the southwest. The need is stressed for creative management decisions that will take full account of the ethnocultural and ethnopsychological characteristics of the city's urban environment.

Self- and Other-Focused Emotional Intelligence, Situational Emotional Understanding, and Experience of Loss
Authors: Dirzyte Aiste , Patapas Aleksandras , Židonis Žilvinas , Valantinas Antanas , Dubauskiene Šarune
Published: December 2021

The links between emotional intelligence and loss are under-researched, even though a lot of studies have investigated the psychological outcomes of traumatic experiences. Many people suffered multiple losses during the COVID-19 pandemic, including a loss of job, money, support services, or loved ones. The loss of a loved one might result in severe psychological trauma, and research suggests that early-life trauma relates to numerous forms of emotion dysregulation, including stress-reactivity. The consequences of loss for people with special needs deserve special attention since it often means not only the loss of a loved one but also the usual way of life. Thus, it is essential to analyze various aspects of loss experience, including the impact on emotional regulation, to reduce the harmful consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this research was to examine emotional intelligence in groups of those who have a recent experience of loss and those who have not and to establish the impact of the experience of loss on the human psyche and mental health. We have analyzed the results of a simple random sample of gymnasium students (n=362). We hypothesized that the recent loss of a loved one diminishes the ability to understand self and other focused emotions as well as situational emotions. The survey has revealed that respondents who experienced the loss of a loved one understood better how individuals felt in the presented situations than those who did not have such experience. The premise that people who have experienced the loss of a loved one have a lower understanding of emotions than their peers who did not have such an experience has not been confirmed.
Literatura como contrapoder: la construcción identitaria femenina en la obra de escritoras franco-magrebíes
Authors: Díaz Alarcón Soledad
Published: December 2021

Este trabajo que se enmarca en los estudios sobre literatura femenina de origen magrebí (literatura beur, literatura francófona femenina y su recepción) explora el imaginario femenino de femme issue de l’immigration construido por escritoras francesas contemporáneas y de finales del XX. En él se analiza la construcción identitaria de la mujer de origen norteafricano a través de sus narraciones y de su expresión: escritura autobiográfica, usos particulares de la lengua francesa (argot y oralidad), los espacios privado y público, posicionamientos de sus protagonistas (aceptación, fingimiento, huida o desarraigo) a través de las cuales las autoras vehiculan sus denuncias. Cierra el estudio una valoración del reconocimiento editorial y la recepción de esta literatura por parte de la crítica.

This work explores the female imagery of Franco-Maghrebi women writers who published their works in the 1980s and 1990s and those who came after. It analyses the identity construction of a group marked by ethnic duality through their expression and their narratives in which they stake their claims: autobiographical writing, particular uses of the French language (slang and orality), the private and public spaces and the stances of their protagonists (acceptance, pretense, flight or uprooting). The study ends with an assessment of the editorial recognition and reception of this literature by critics.

Cette étude explore l'imaginaire féminin des écrivaines Franco-Maghrébines qui ont publié leurs œuvres dans les années 1980-1990 et de leurs continuatrices. Elle analyse la construction identitaire d’un collectif marqué par la dualité ethnique à travers son expression et ses récits, où les écrivaines véhiculent leurs dénonciations : autobiographie, usage particulier de la langue française (argot et oralité), espaces privés et publics et les positions de leurs protagonistes (acceptation, faux-semblant, fuite ou déracinement). L'étude comprend une évaluation de la reconnaissance éditoriale et de la réception de cette littérature par la critique.
cours de langues dans le contexte universitaire : quelle place pour la compétence interculturelle à l'ère du numérique?
Authors: Moussafir Khalil
Published: December 2021

Este artículo tiene como objetivo aclarar el lugar significativo de la interculturalidad en el aula de idiomas. De hecho, las sociedades actuales están expuestas a cambios profundos a nivel individual y colectivo bajo el efecto de la digitalización. Esto significa que el individuo experimenta una nueva socialización, una especie de socialización digital dentro de la cual la dimensión intercultural ocupa un lugar central a través de la apertura lingüística y cultural al otro. Esta situación presenta a la escuela nuevos desafíos. Más allá de las consideraciones didácticas y puramente lingüísticas, el aprendizaje de idiomas adquiere toda su significación al poner en práctica los conceptos fundacionales de la interculturalidad como la competencia intercultural o la competencia comunicativa intercultural. Lo mostraremos a partir de los programas lingüísticos de cooperación internacional, en particular los de la asociación entre la Universidad Hassan1er en Marruecos y la Haute école d'Hénallux en Bélgica.

This article aims to highlight the significant place of interculturality in the language classroom. Indeed, current societies are exposed to profound changes at the individual and collective levels under the effect of digitization. This means that the individual experiences a new socialization, a kind of digital socialization within which the intercultural dimension occupies a central place through linguistic and cultural openness to the other. This situation presents the school with new challenges. Beyond didactic and purely linguistic considerations, language learning takes on its full significance by putting to work the founding concepts of interculturality such as intercultural competence or intercultural communication competence. We will show this from the linguistic programs of international cooperation, in particular those of the partnership between the University Hassan1er in Morocco and the Haute école d'Hénallux in Belgium.

Le présent article vise à éclairer la place prégnante de l’interculturel dans la classe de langue. En effet, les sociétés actuelles sont exposées à de profondes mutations sur les plans individuel et collectif sous l’effet de la digitalisation. Ce qui fait que l’individu vit une nouvelle socialisation, une sorte de socialisation numérique au sein de laquelle la dimension interculturelle occupe une place centrale par l’ouverture linguistique et culturelle sur l’autre. Cette situation met l’école face à de nouveaux défis. Au-delà des considérations didactiques et purement linguistiques, l’apprentissage des langues prend toute sa signification en mettant à l’œuvre les concepts fondateurs de l’interculturel à l’instar de la compétence interculturelle ou de la compétence à la communication interculturelle. Nous montrerons cela à partir des programmes linguistiques de coopération internationale, notamment ceux du partenariat entre l’Université Hassan1er au Maroc et la Haute école d’Hénallux en Belgique.
Aspectos éticos de los bancos de datos de DNA de interés policial
Authors: Mestres Naval Francesc , Pegueroles Queralt Cinta , Vives-Rego Josep
Published: December 2021

El primer banco de datos policial basado en perfiles genéticos de DNA se introdujo en el Reino Unido en 1995. La identificación de posibles sospechosos se realiza por la comparación directa de un perfil genético recuperado del lugar de los hechos con otro almacenado en un banco de datos. Desde un principio se ha demostrado que dichos bancos de DNA son una herramienta de investigación policial poderosa, pero que presenta diversos problemas éticos. Posteriormente se fue más allá buscando coincidencias parciales, que podrían indicar un vínculo familiar entre un perfil genético almacenado y otro obtenido en el lugar de los hechos. Este procedimiento genera un elevado número de sospechosos potenciales entre personas ajenas al caso que se investiga. Recientemente la búsqueda policial basada en el DNA ha penetrado en bancos de datos de interés no criminal, sino destinados a estimar el origen étnico de personas o descubrir familiares lejanos. Este tipo de búsquedas ha suscitado la posibilidad de generar un banco de datos universal de DNA, donde toda la población estuviese incluida. Estos y otros aspectos bioéticos respecto a la información basada en el DNA y a su acceso son tratados en el presente artículo. 

The first police databank based on DNA genetic profiles was introduced in the UK in 1995. Identification of potential suspects is carried out by direct comparison of a genetic profile retrieved from the crime scene with another stored in a databank. DNA databanks have been proven from the outset to be a powerful police investigative tool, but they present a number of ethical issues. Later, it went further looking for partial coincidences, which could indicate a family link between a stored genetic profile and one obtained at the crime scene. This procedure generates a high number of potential suspects among people not related with the case under investigation. Recently, the DNA-based police search has penetrated databanks of non-criminal interest, but aimed at estimating the ethnic origin of people or discovering distant relatives. This type of search has raised the possibility of generating a universal DNA databank, where the entire population were included. These and other bioethical aspects regarding information based on DNA and its access are dealt with in this article.
Aboriginal Social Work Education in Canada: Decolonizing Pedagogy for the Seventh Generation1
Authors: Sinclair Raven
Published: December 2021

Aboriginal social work is a relatively new ﬁeld in the human services, emerging out of the Aboriginal social movement of the 1970s and evolving in response to the need for social work that is sociologically relevant to Aboriginal people. Aboriginal social work education incorporates Aboriginal history and is premised upon traditional sacred epistemology in order to train both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal social workers who can understand and meet the needs of Aboriginal people. The deﬁciencies of contemporary cross-cultural approaches and anti-oppressive social work education are highlighted as a means to emphasize the importance of social work education premised upon relevant history and worldview. The values and responsibilities that derive from Aboriginal worldview as the foundation for Aboriginal social work education are discussed in terms of the tasks that are implied for the educator and student of Aboriginal social work. Such tasks include self-healing, decolonization, role modelling, developing critical consciousness, and social and political advocacy. Aboriginal social work education, a decolonizing pedagogy directed to mitigating and redressing the harm of colonization at the practice level, is a contemporary cultural imperative.
Aboriginal Youth Talk About Structural Determinants as the Causes of Their Homelessness1
Authors: Baskin2 Cyndy
Published: December 2021

This article explores structural determinants as possible causes of the homelessness of Aboriginal youth in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It includes a brief literature review and provides some of the findings of a recent research project, which implemented an Aboriginal research methodology with homeless youth in Toronto. These findings point to a strong link between Aboriginal children growing up in poverty and involvement in child welfare and becoming homeless as a youth. Suggestions for positive change at the policy-level are offered in order to prevent the next generation of Aboriginal children growing up to become homeless youth.
Conversational Method in Indigenous Research1
Authors: Kovach Margaret
Published: December 2021

In reflecting upon two qualitative research projects incorporating an Indigenous methodology, this article focuses on the use of the conversational method as a means for gathering knowledge through story. The article first provides a theoretical discussion which illustrates that for the conversational method to be identified as an Indigenous research method it must flow from an Indigenous paradigm. The article then moves to an exploration of the conversational method in action and offers reflections on the significance of researcher-in-relation and the inter-relationship between this method, ethics, and care.
Reflections on Intergenerational Trauma: Healing as a Critical Intervention 1
Authors: Quinn Ashley
Published: December 2021

The high numbers of Aboriginal children placed in provincial and territorial care demonstrate the need for effective interventions that directly address the legacy of trauma from colonialization. This paper argues that healing is a critical component of any intervention seeking to help Aboriginal Peoples and their children. Research on healing and recent government initiatives and legislation directed at preserving traditional Aboriginal healing practices are discussed. This article concludes with recommendations for various community members involved in the healing of Aboriginal Peoples.
A Discussion Paper on Indigenous Custom Adoption Part 1: Severed Connections – Historical Overview of Indigenous Adoption in Canada
Authors: di Tomasso Lara , de Finney Sandrina
Published: December 2021

This paper forms Part 1 of a two-part discussion paper on Indigenous custom adoption. Zeroing in on the entangled histories of adoption and colonization, it outlines a short history of adoption in Canada, examines the impact of forced, closed, and external adoptions on Indigenous adoptees, and traces the move toward more open statutory adoptions and greater cultural connection and continuity in adoptions. This historical review sets the stage for Part 2 of our discussion paper, “Honouring Our Caretaking Traditions,” where we highlight the connections between customary laws regarding caregiving and the resurgence of Indigenous authority over child welfare within a context of Indigenous self-determination and self-governance.
