Rzecz o pożarach w miastach wielkopolskich. Na marginesie pracy Andrzeja Karpińskiego pt. Pożary w miastach Rzeczypospolitej w XVI–XVIII wieku i ich następstwa ekonomiczne, społeczne i kulturowe. Katalog, s. 13–65
Authors: Łojko Jakub , Łojko Jerzy
Published: May 2023

Celem pracy jest przybliżenie czytelnikom zjawiska występowania pożarów w historycznej Wielkopolsce XVI–XVIII w. Jest ona swoistą polemiką z ustaleniami na ten temat Andrzeja Karpińskiego (oraz jego współpracowników), autora pracy z 2020 r. pt. Pożary w miastach Rzeczypospolitej w XVI–XVIII wieku i ich następstwa ekonomiczne, społeczne i kulturowe. Katalog (należy tutaj podkreślić, że nie zajmujemy się treściami podanymi w drugiej jej części, monograficznej). W pierwszej części artykułu zastanowiono się nad zasadnością wykorzystania użytej literatury i kwestią doboru źródeł. Tutaj też podkreślono przydatność tzw. iuramentów, czyli rodzaju ksiąg grodzkich, często zawierających informacje o pożarach (których Karpiński raczej nie zbadał). W drugiej części zwrócono uwagę na te źródła, których autor nie wykorzystał (oprócz powyższych także innych ksiąg grodzkich, rejestrów poborowych z drugiej połowy XVI w. oraz relacji zagranicznych podróżników po Wielkopolsce). Mimo uwag poczynionych w artykule — wciąż bardziej faktograficznych niż metodologicznych — praca Karpińskiego na pewno godna jest polecenia. Jak pisze Tomasz Jurek, w dalszej przyszłości publikacja „ta na pokolenia stanie się […] „przewodnikiem dla badaczy tej ciekawej problematyki”. On the fires in towns of Greater Poland as described in the work of Andrzej Karpiński, Pożary w miastach Rzeczypospolitej w XVI–XVIII wieku i ich następstwa ekonomiczne, społeczne i kulturowe. Katalog, pp. 13–65. The objective of the paper is to familiarize the readers with the subject of fires in the historic Greater Poland in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. It is a form of a debate with the arguments on this subject presented in the 2020 publication by Andrzej Karpiński (and his collaborators) titled “Fires in towns of the Republic of Poland from the 16th until the 18th century, and their economic, social, and cultural consequences. Catalogue”. (It must be noted here that we do not discuss the information contained in the second, monograph part of the paper). In the first part of the article, the authors reflect upon the validity of the literature Karpiński used and the problem of source selection. The usefulness of iuramenta (a type of urban books), often containing information on fires, is investigated (Karpiński did not research those). The second part of the paper discusses the sources that the author did not use, which also include other types of urban books, enlistment registers from the second half of the 16th century, and the reports of foreign travelers to Greater Poland. Despite the comments made in the article — focusing mostly on facts rather than methodology — the work by Karpiński is definitely worth recommending. As Tomasz Jurek writes, in the future, this publication will become a […] guide for researchers exploring this interesting subject for generations to come.

Published: May 2023

This work reports the use of highly efficient nanocomposite material fabricated glassy carbon electrode (Ag(NPs)/ChS/GC) in the trace detection of Pb2+ using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). A facile method yielded the silane-grafted chitosan (ChS) using 3-trimethoxyoctylsilane, and the bioderived Ag(NPs) was in situ decorated on the ChS composite to obtain Ag(NPs)/ChS. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) results showed the presence of Ag(NPs) within the composite material. Spherical-shaped and uniform distribution of Ag(NPs) were observed in SEM and TEM images of the nanocomposite solid. The cyclic voltammetric studies revealed a significant increase in redox peak currents (i.e., 0.1283 mA), which was obtained using the Ag(NP)/ChS/GC compared to the bare glassy carbon electrode. Further, the electrochemical determination of Pb2+ showed good linearity in anodic peak current and Pb2+ concentrations (5.0-80.0 μg/L), and the limit of detection was 1.97 μg/L. With 10-fold increase in several cationic and anionic interfering ions, oxalic acid and glycine only show interference in determination of Pb2+. The reproducibility study showed a %RSD of 2.43%, and the electrode could be efficiently used for prolonged and repetitive detection having reasonably low %RSD of 2.55%. The real water analysis showed almost 100% recovery of Pb2+ in two different real water samples.
Sources, fate, effects, and analysis of microplastic in wastewater treatment plants: A review

Published: May 2023

Microplastics (MPs) are tiny pieces of plastic smaller than 5mm that have raised concerns to aquatic organisms and human health due to their ubiquitous presence. Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) are a significant point source for aquatic MPs pollution, as millions of MPs with different characteristics reach WWTPs through the Sewage. Even though, WWTPs are not specifically designed to remove MPs, researchers report that more than 90% of MPs can be removed in WWTPs. However, given the huge volumes of effluent discharge into natural aquatic bodies, even small concentrations of MPs in the effluent would be significant. A typical WWTP consists of three key stages: primary, secondary and tertiary. Removal of MPs in these stages is reviewed. In addition, plastics can adsorb toxic chemical and biological pollutants on its surface and can lead to spread of toxic pollutants in the environment. Therefore, in this review we aim to provide comprehensive knowledge about the sources of MPs in wastewater, their fate and removal in WWTPs, their interactions with different chemical and biological pollutants, and their effects on environment. In addition, it also highlights the different methodologies used for sampling, sample preparation and physical and chemical identification of MPs found in the WWTPs.
Oxidative degradation of electroplating wastewater by an electro-Fenton process using GO/TiO2NTs electrode
Authors: Rajoria Sonal , Vashishtha Manish , Sangal Vikas K
Published: May 2023

Electro-Fenton (E-Fenton) is a versatile treatment method; however, it has not yet been used for the treatment of electroplating wastewater using graphene oxide (GO) coated TiO2 nanotubes (GO/TiO2NTs) electrode. A simple anodization technique has been adopted to synthesize GO/TiO2NTs electrode. The present work aimed to study an E-Fenton treatment to investigate the effect of different parameters on % COD removal and energy consumption using GO/TiO2NTs electrode. The performance of the treatment process was examined in terms of % COD removal and energy consumed at three process parameters: current, time, and ferrous sulfate concentration. The optimum operating conditions were determined using multiple responses optimization based on Box-Behnken design (BBD). At optimum operational parameters, the results revealed that the % COD removal and energy consumed were 96.27% and 15.35 kWh/m3, respectively. The pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics was fitted to the experimental data at optimum conditions. Possible intermediates were identified based on the GC-MS analysis, and a corresponding tentative degradation pathway has been proposed. Furthermore, a recyclability and stability study of the synthesized electrode has also been performed. Moreover, total organic carbon (TOC) study revealed that E-Fenton has the potential to detoxify electroplating effluents. Hence, GO/TiO2NTs electrodes can be highly efficient in degrading hazardous pollutants.
Highly efficient removal of ionic dyes in aqueous solutions using magnetic 3D reduced graphene oxide aerogel supported nano zero-valent iron
Authors: Fan Mingyi , Zhang Peng , Wang Cuiping , Sun Hongwen
Published: May 2023

This study aims to develop three-dimension reduced graphene oxide aerogel supported nano zero-valent iron (rGOA-nZVI) by hydrothermal and liquid phase reduction approach and applies it to the removal of two typical dyes, methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) from aqueous solutions. The obtained magnetic rGOA-nZVI composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and its removal efficiencies for MB and MO from aqueous solutions were evaluated. The removal processes of MB and MO could be completed within 30 min, which were well described by the pseudo-second order kinetic model. The rGOA-nZVI nanocomposites exhibited remarkable performance for the removal of MB (the maximum adsorption amount, qmax = 3918 mg/g) and MO (qmax = 667 mg/g) in a wide pH range (pH 1.0-10.0). Furthermore, rGOA-nZVI is stable and recyclable with high dye removal efficiencies (> 90%) after five cycles. The removal mechanisms were demonstrated with SEM and XRD analyses before and after MB and MO removal. This study showed that rGOA acts as an excellent carrier for nZVI, and the rGOA-nZVI nanocomposites are efficient materials for the advanced treatment of dye wastewater over a wide pH range.
Report of an Iranian child with developmental motor delay and renal and hepatic complications diagnosed as a Glycogen storage disease type 1a: A case report
Authors: Zamanfar Daniel , Hashemi-Soteh Seyed MohammadBagher , Ghazaiean Mobin , Keyhanian Elham
Published: May 2023

Background: Glycogen storage disease type 1a (GSD-1a) is the most common form of GSDs, accounting for 80% of these cases. Here we present a 16-month-old boy being treated for GSD-1a at our clinic.

Case presentation: Given that the patient was not examined and diagnosed prior to referral to our clinic, mitochondrial disease due to developmental delay, high lactate levels, and lack of hypoglycemia was treated first. Given the fact that the patient’s clinical presentation could not be justified by repeat testing, DNA analysis showed evidence in favor of glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency. The result of the genetic analysis reported a known mutation of c.G193C (P.A65P).

Conclusion: Because of the prevalence of this disease, GSD-1a should be considered in children with unexplained hypoglycemia and/or hepatomegaly. Proper metabolic control and prohibition of hypoglycemia should aim to reach the desired point.
A case of trigeminal neuralgia after COVID-19
Authors: Lucy Jeanie C.
Published: May 2023

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic in the United States is a part of the worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Symptoms can vary in COVID-19 among which central nervous system (CNS) involvement can be included. As this disease is studied locally, nationally and globally, attention to neurological manifestations presentations should be documented for better understanding.

Methods: A clinical case of trigeminal neuralgia will be discussed along with presentation of signs, symptoms, differential diagnosis and the potential association of it with COVID-19.

Results: A 41-year-old woman presented to the clinic for a routine eye examination which was prompted by chronic facial pain on one side described as constantly dull up to excruciatingly painful when brushing her teeth. No other neurological pain was reported. The patient was diagnosed with Sar-CoV-2 and subsequently trigeminal neuralgia two weeks after testing negative COVID-19.

Conclusion: Trigeminal neuralgia may be triggered after testing positive for COVID-19, yet further investigations are needed.

Published: May 2023

Frankincense oil is widely used across the globe for various therapeutic implications. However, the potential toxicity profile of Frankincense oil has not been well explored. The present study is a debut attempt to study the organ-specific (cardiac, hepatic, and neuromuscular) toxicity profile of Frankincense essential oil from Boswellia sacra using the zebrafish embryo model. The results revealed a “no observed effect concentration” (NOEC) dose of Frankincense oil of 300 µg/ml. Signs of cardiac toxicity were not observed if the zebrafish embryos were incubated with Frankincense oil (100 µg/ml). In addition, signs of genotoxicity were also not observed at the same concentration. Similarly, neuromuscular toxicity evaluated by the locomotor activity in the presence of light and hepatic toxicity measured by liver size, yolk retention, and steatosis were not found. Despite the absence of toxic effects of Frankincense oil on zebrafish embryo survival, it should be further investigated to assess if the prolonged administration of Frankincense oil in higher vertebrates might induce potential toxic effects.

Published: May 2023

The Belt and Road initiative was announced in 2013 under the administration of China’s President, Xi Jinping. It was designed to fulfill the aim of interconnecting Asia, Europe, and Africa through reliable connectivity networks. In reaction to it, the 47th summit of G7 in June 2021 has given a response to this Chinese Initiative with the idea of Build Back Better World (B3W). G7 tried to show that the world can have an alternative to BRI. The main objective of the study was to compare the feasibility of these two massive infrastructural projects. It is a qualitative document analysis of the previously published material on the related theme, that highlighted a competition of economic supremacy between the US and China. The research found that BRI was gaining enough popularity as compared to B3W in the eyes of the world specifically in connecting different regions.

Educação infantil e divisão sexual do trabalho: qual o lugar da mulher trabalhadora?
Authors: Silveira dos Santos Rosa Mariana
Published: May 2023

Este artigo discute a omissão do Estado no seu dever de garantir educação gratuita para as crianças pequenas, expressada pela insuficiência de vagas em creches públicas. Esta omissão está diretamente relacionada com a duplicidade do ato do trabalho, condição da mulher trabalhadora que se vê obrigada a dividir suas atividades cotidianas entre o trabalho doméstico e o trabalho fora de casa. O estudo foi realizado tendo como referência a Rede Pública Municipal de Educação Infantil de Florianópolis (Santa Catarina, sul do Brasil). A discussão está embasada na análise de dados relacionados à situação familiar e de emprego de mulheres responsáveis por crianças matriculadas em período parcial em creches e pré-escolas públicas, partindo de dados coletados por meio de questionários junto às famílias das crianças matriculadas em unidades educativas públicas da rede municipal de Florianópolis. Pretende-se contribuir para discussões relacionadas à luta da mulher trabalhadora pela sua emancipação, provocando reflexões acerca de suas necessidades e de sua realidade concreta. Este artigo pretende ainda demonstrar como as políticas de Estado relacionadas à educação infantil excluem parte das crianças, principalmente as originárias de famílias trabalhadoras.
Claude Lévi-Strauss a problém tzv. synchronického času
Authors: Šubrt Jiří
Published: May 2023

In societies described as “cold” by Claude Lévi-Strauss, the historical dimension is coded into myths, traditions and rituals. Lévi-Strauss says that ritual is an “instrument for the destruction of time”. The key to the author’s idea of the opposition of synchronicity and diachronicity is found in his work The Savage Mind, in which he talks about a never-ending struggle between these two which initiates totemic thinking. In current sociology, Levi-Strauss’ concept of reversible time is utilised by Anthony Giddens, who adapts it in his structuration theory. However the concept of synchronous (structuralist) reversible time is simultaneously the subject of a critique from the perspectives of cultural anthropology (Alfred Gell) and sociology (Barbara Adam). At the article’s conclusion, the argument is made that when Lévi-Strauss talks about cold societies, which tend to banish history from the consciousness, it doesn’t mean that he is trying to over rule the laws of logic or physics (as he is accused by Gell) but at tempting to see the world through the eyes of a specific type of society and to understand time from the perspective of a “native”.
DEMOKRAT PARTİ DÖNEMİNDE BASINLA İLİŞKİLER ÇERÇEVESİNDE “RESMİ İLAN VE REKLAM” UYGULAMALARI (1950-1960)
Authors: ÖKTE Sezai Kürşat
Published: May 2023

Türkiye’de demokratik siyasal hayata geçiş sonrası 1945-1950 arasındaki dönemde basın, önemli bir çoğunluğuyla; verilen vaatler ve yapılan söylemler çerçevesinde, Demokrat Parti’nin iktidara gelişi ve ilk yıllarında sürekli yanında ve destekçisi olmuştur. Ancak yıllar geçtikte, ülkenin koşullarına ve basın ile muhalefetin genel tutumuna bağlı olarak iktidar partisi, çeşitli yaptırımlar uygulamaya başladıkça, basın bu desteğini azaltmış ve nihayet sonlandırmıştır. Bu çerçevede; Demokrat Parti iktidarı süresince ülke gündemini teşkil eden “Resmi ve Özel İlanlar ile Reklamların Dağıtımı” konusu da çözümlenemeyen, başlı başına bir meseledir. DP iktidara gelince, CHP’den izlediklerini uygulamaya çalışmış, ancak bunu yaparken aceleci davranmış, görünürde ülke kültürünün artırılmasını sağlama bahanesiyle, bir çok yeni gazetenin yayın hayatında yer almasını temin için bunlara ilan ve reklam, daha doğrusu ilan ve reklam parası dağıtmıştır. Açıkçası, kendisine her konuda destek olacak bir basın oluşturmayı amaçlamıştır. Böylece, “besleme basın” uygulamasının yaratılmasını ve yıllarca gündemde tutulmasını engelleyememiştir. Öyle ki, günümüzde bile bu niteleme adeta DP iktidarı döneminin bir simgesi halindedir.

İşte bu araştırmada; Demokrat Parti’nin basın ortamındaki uygulamaları çerçevesinde “Resmi İlanlar ve Reklamların Dağıtımı” na ilişkin geliştirilen tedbirler ortaya konulmaya çalışılacaktır.
15-16 HAZİRAN (1970) İŞÇİ EYLEMİ VE İZMİR’DE UYANDIRDIĞI YANKILAR
Authors: KAYA Asil
Published: May 2023

Türkiye’de 19. yüzyıldan itibaren kesintiye uğrayarak da olsa süregelen işçi hareketleri, İkinci Dünya Savaşı’nın ardından süreklilik arz etmeye başlamış, 1961 Anayasası’yla birlikte de ivme kazanmıştı. Bir yandan ekonomik taleplerin öne çıkarıldığı bu hareketler, öte yandan politik bir tavra dönüşmeye başlamıştı.

15 Temmuz 1963’te kabul edilen 274 ve 275 sayılı kanunlarla sendikal örgütlenmenin ve toplu sözleşme yapma koşullarının yeniden düzenlenmesi, işçi hareketlerinin önünü açmıştı. 1970 yılından itibaren sosyal ve ekonomik koşullarının da etkisiyle işçiler arasındaki eylemler artınca hükümet, çareyi çalışma hayatını yeniden düzenlemekte bulmuştu. Hem kamu personellerini hem de işçileri ilgilendiren düzenlemeler yoğun tepkilere neden olmuştu. Tepkilerin en büyüğü de işçilerden gelmişti. Zira Sendikalar Kanunu ile Grev, Toplu Sözleşme ve Lokavt Kanunu’nda yapılması planlanan değişiklikler sendikalar arası rekabette dengeyi bozucu niteliğe sahipti. Bu duruma tepki gösteren DİSK’e bağlı sendikalar yasaya karşı “direnme”yi kararlaştırmışlardı. 15 Haziran 1970 günü başlatılan eylemler iki gün boyunca sürmüş ve yasa tasarısı protesto edilmişti. Hükümetin sıkıyönetim kararıyla önlenebilen eylemler; Gebze ve İstanbul’da gerçekleşmiş olsa da eylemlerin etkisi farklı şehirlere de intikal etmişti.

Bu çalışmada 15-16 Haziran 1970’te gerçekleşen işçi eylemlerine giden süreç, eylemler sırasında yaşananlar, eylemlere yönelik farklı bakış açıları ve İzmir’deki yankıları ele alınmıştır. Çalışmanın kaynakçasında konuyla ilgili telif eserlerden, resmi kaynaklardan ve süreli yayınlardan yararlanılmıştır.
SOLİDARİST KORPORATİST DÜŞÜNCE BAĞLAMINDA İKTİSADİYAT MECMUASI'NDA MADENCİLİK YAKLAŞIMLARI
Authors: TAŞTEKİN Serap
Published: May 2023

Osmanlı Devleti’nin ekonomik dönüşümünde XIX. yüzyılın ikinci yarısından itibaren iktisadi liberalizmin karşısında himayeci görüş tartışılmaya başlandı. Liberal iktisadi yaklaşımın yerini korumacı görüşlere bıraktığı yıllarda bu durum, milli ekonomi düşüncesini işleyen iktisadi yayınlara da yansıdı.

1916 yılında yayın hayatına başlayan İktisadiyat Mecmuası, tarım, sanayi, ziraat ve bankacılık gibi ekonomi araçları üzerinde solidarist ve korporatist anlayışla örtüşen yayınlar yaptı. İktisadiyat Mecmuası’nın kurucuları Ziya Gökalp ve Tekin Alp, Fransa’daki Üçüncü Cumhuriyet’in resmi ideolojisi olan solidarizmin Osmanlı düşün dünyasına taşıyıcıları oldular. Yeni Mecmua’da solidarizmin yeni sentezini yapan Ziya Gökalp ve Tekin Alp, İktisadiyat Mecmuası’ndaki konularını bu bağlamda da ele aldılar. Solidarizm sınıf ayrılığına karşı çıkan, fakat sosyalist olmayan halkçı; aynı zamanda sınıflar arasında çıkar eşitliğini savunan dayanışmacı (tesanütçü), bunun yanında emperyalist olmayan bir devletçi yaklaşımı tasarlar. Bu çerçevede derginin, ülkenin önemli bir ekonomik değeri olan madenlerin kullanımındaki yaklaşımı, bu çalışmanın konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Derginin iki yıllık yayın hayatı boyunca maden politikasıyla makaleleri solidarist korporatizm bağlamında incelenmiştir. Madencilikle ilgili yayınlanan haberleri ise çoğunlukla maden arama ve işletme imtiyazı haberleri oluşturmuştur.

İktisadiyat Mecmuası ile ilgili yapılan çalışmalarda derginin yayıncılığı milli iktisat politikası çerçevesinde değerlendirilmiştir. Solidarist korporatist düşünce bağlamında maden yaklaşımlarının konu edilmemiş olması, bu çalışmanın önemini belirtir.
Konjonktür ve Felsefe Pratiği: Althusser'in Hegel'e Müdahalelerini Okumak
Authors: KORKMAZ Kaan A.
Published: May 2023

Althusser’in konjonktür okumaları ve konjonktüre ilişkin tanımlamaları felsefe pratiğini anlamak açısından merkezi bir önemdedir. Zira Althusser’in felsefi müdahaleleri bir konjonktür okumasına dayalı olarak geliştirilmiş müdahalelerdir. Dolayısıyla felsefe pratiğini tanımlamak için, felsefenin konjonktürle ilişkisini tanımlamak gerekmektedir. Bu bağlamda Althusser’in Hegel’e müdahalesini incelemek, felsefi müdahalelerin konjonktürle ilişkisini açıklamak için önemli bir örnek teşkil edebilecektir.

Althusser’in Hegel’le ilişkisi erken döneminden itibaren mevcutsa da 1960’larda geliştirdiği müdahaleler bugün bilinen anlamıyla Althusserci felsefenin kurucu temelleri olarak anılmaktadır. Dolayısıyla 1960’larda geliştirilen bu müdahaleler özel olarak önem teşkil etmektedir. Bu dönemde Fransız felsefesi açısından bir Spinoza Rönesansı’da yaşanmaktadır. Ancak Althusser bu döneme damgasını vuran Spinoza Rönesansı’yla farklarını da ortaya koymuş, Hegel’e müdahalelerde bulunurken Hegel’den bazı kavram ve kategorileri de kullanmayı sürdürmüştür. Dolayısıyla Althusser ve Hegel ilişkisi genel olarak tanımlandığı gibi basit bir karşıtlık ilişkisi değildir. Bunun sebebi ise felsefe pratiğinin konjonktürle ilişkisidir.

Felsefe pratiğinin konjonktürle ilişkisinin tanımlanması, felsefi müdahalelerin açıklanması ve buna dayanarak günümüz konjonktürüne ilişkin çıkarımlarda bulunulması için kritik önemdedir. Dolayısıyla tartışmamız, Althusser’in Hegelcilik çağında Hegel’e karşı geliştirdiği müdahaleleri inceleyerek, bir Spinoza çağında felsefe pratiğinin nasıl olabileceğine dair bir soru sormaktadır. Bu noktada sabit felsefi konumların var olmayacağı ve konjonktürel eğilimlerin felsefi müdahale için önemli olacağı öne sürülmektedir.
"Bizi Öldürmeyen Şey Güçlendirir mi?": Nietzsche'de Acı, Ressentiment ve Politika
Authors: YARDIMCI Hikmet Çağrı
Published: May 2023

Bu çalışmada acı, en öncelikle, Nietzsche’nin soykütüğü yöntemle soruşturduğu muhtevası istikametinde incelenecektir. Décadence ya da nihilizme götüren “ressentiment metafiziğinin” de ancak bireyin acıyı olumlaması sayesinde geriletilebileceğinin, üst-insanın kendini aşma serüveninin tam da bu bağlamda mühim addedildiğinin altı çizilecektir. Bunun akabinde, acı ve ressentiment’in Nietzsche felsefesindeki sair yansımalarının politik olduğu varsayımıyla Yahudi-Hristiyan ahlakı, modern ideolojiler ve devlet eleştirileri mercek altına alınacaktır. Son olarak, Nietzsche’nin “güç istenci”, “bengi dönüş” ve “üst-insan” gibi meşhur kavramlarıyla acı ve ressentiment üzerindeki okumaları eşliğinde demokratik-çoğulculuğun mu yoksa “aristokratik bir radikalizm”in mi izini sürdüğünün tartışması yürütülecektir. Nihayetinde, hem bir his hem de Nietzsche’nin felsefesinin temel yapı taşlarından biri olan acının ressentiment ile irtibatının Nietzsche’de “politik-olanı” inşa ettiğine işaret edilecektir.

The objective of this study is twofold: 1) to examine the cost and return structure of commercial fishing boat operators in Tha Sala district, Nakhon Si Thammarat province, and 2) to study the adjustment strategies and assistance measures for the group of commercial fishing boat operators in Tha Sala district, Nakhon Si Thammarat province. The sources of data used in this research are 1) commercial fishing boat operators in Tha Sala district, Nakhon Si Thammarat province, and 2) government agencies related to commercial fishing boats. The study will use a snowball sampling technique, focus group discussions, and in-depth interviews with a set of predetermined questions. The results of the study show that the cost and return structure comprises five constant costs: labor costs, foreign document costs, boat registration costs, boat permit costs, and straight-line depreciation costs. Since 2020, the average cost per year has been 442,425 baht. In 2021, the average cost is still 442,425 baht, while in 2022, it increases to 445,425 baht due to fluctuations in cost factors, which include fuel prices, rice prices for fishermen, ice costs, and maintenance expenses. The return on investment for the past three years has been continuously decreasing, with an average of 7,200,000 baht in 2020, 6,200,000 baht in 2021, and 2,700,000 baht in 2022. The fishing boat operators have made adjustments in three areas to combat rising fuel costs: reducing work days, adjusting product processing, and relying on technology and innovation. However, the government and other public entities have no direct role in assisting commercial fishing boat operators dealing with rising labor costs and fuel prices. The only indirect assistance comes through a loan project that uses the fishing boats as collateral, and this has been available only once during the three-year period from 2020 to 2022 when labor and fuel costs were at their highest.

Published: May 2023

EPDF and EPUB available Open Access under CC-BY-NC-ND licence. This book provides new insights into the challenges facing older people in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. It draws upon novel qualitative longitudinal research which recorded the experiences of a diverse group of people aged 50+ in Greater Manchester over a 12-month period during the pandemic. The book analyses their lived experiences and those of organisations working to support them, shedding light on the isolating effects of social distancing. Focusing on interviews with 21 organisations, as well as 102 people from four ethnic/identity groups, the authors argue that the pandemic exacerbated existing inequalities in the UK, disproportionately affecting low-income neighbourhoods and minority ethnic communities. The book outlines recommendations in relation to developing a ‘community-centred approach’ in responding to future variants of COVID-19, as well as making suggestions for how to create post-pandemic neighbourhoods.
