Brasília municipal solid waste landfill: a case study on flow and slope stability
Authors: Jucá José Fernando , Norberto Alison , Santos Júnior José Ivan , Marinho Fernando
Published: September 2021

For geotechnical and environmental reasons, landfills are positioned above the regional water table and thus are formed in unsaturated conditions. This condition can be different if the drainage system and the rain regime of the site are such that they create a level of internal liquid in the landfill. During January and February 2019, excessive movements occurred in the slopes of the Brasília sanitary landfill. A geotechnical investigation indicated that the raised leachate level caused by the clogging of the drainage system contributed to the landfilled waste movements. The limit equilibrium analysis was used to predict the relationship between leachate level and slope stability. In order to understand the process that led to the rupture, flow and stability analysis by limit equilibrium were performed. The parameters associated with flow, water retention capacity, and shear strength were obtained based on literature evaluations. In addition, data from tests were used, which allowed to define more accurately the distribution of pore pressures of liquid that led to the failure. This study allowed to define the cause of failure and also to establish the role of the drainage system in maintaining the stability of the landfill. The studies indicated that although the gain of shear strength of landfill due to the unsaturated condition is negligible, the process of flow in unsaturated medium, associated with climatic aspects, are fundamental for a medium- and long-term analysis.
The new expertise required for designing safe tailings storage facilities
Authors: Wilson Gordon
Published: September 2021

The global mining community has seen a dangerous sequence of failures in tailings dams, beginning with Mount Polley mine, followed by the Samarco, Cadia Valley and Córrego do Feijão mines. This sequence of failures began on August 4, 2014, at the Mount Polley tailings storage facility in British Columbia, Canada. The initial failure in the embankment at the Mount Polley tailings storage facility had substantial impact on the global mining industry. The Independent Expert Engineering Investigation and Review Panel (IEEIRP) tasked with the investigation of the breach in the tailings dam at Mount Polley made major contributions for new guidelines. The incident has given rise to comprehensive recommendations for best available tailings technologies (BAT) based on principles such as the elimination of surface water from impoundments with the promotion of unsaturated conditions in the tailings through drainage provisions. The application of these BAT principles for the surface storage of tailings leads to the use of filtered tailings technology. Filtered tailings technology or “dry stack tailings” can satisfy each of the BAT components when the impoundment is properly designed and constructed. The implementation of the best available technologies for the physical stability (BAT-PS) of tailings impoundments competes directly with the best available technologies for the chemical stability (BAT-CS) of reactive tailings that may produce acid and metalliferous drainage. The new expertise in mine waste management required to achieve both BAT-PS and BAT-CS are discussed in the present paper.

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ПОСТІНТЕГРАЦІЙНОЇ ДЕМОКРАТИЗАЦІЇ ДЕРЖАВ БАЛТІЇ: АНАЛІЗ ВІДПОВІДНОСТІ ПОЛІТИЧНОМУ КУРСУ ЄС
Authors: Lutsyshyn Halyna , Khoma Nataliia
Published: September 2021

У статті запропонована авторська оцінка відповідності держав Балтії на сучасному етапі вимогам ЄС до держав-учасниць. Ставиться завданням за індикаторами гендерної рівності та толерантності виявити розбіжності політики Естонії, Латвії та Литви з ініціативами ЄС. Авторки аргументують, що попри очевидний поступ за останні три десятиліття в політичній модернізації, консолідація демократії для держав Балтії є викликом: на певних напрямках демократизації є успіхи, однак на багатьох – наявна стагнація та навіть регрес. Відзначено, що попри низку проблем у взаєминах з ЄС, держави Балтії демонструють виваженість і не схильні агресивно акцентувати на національних пріоритетах, як це характерно для окремих держав Центральної та Східної Європи. Щодо кожної з держав Балтії авторки вказали на причини, які посилюють ризики погіршення якості демократії та сповільнюють проєвропейську постінтеграційну демократизацію. Спільними характеристиками Естонії, Латвії та Литви виділено: зростання підтримки популістських, консервативних, націоналістичних політичних áкторів; посилення різноманітних етнічних стереотипів і соціальних фобій (гомофобії, мігрантофобії, ромофобії та ін.); збереження рудиментів попередньої недемократичної політичної культури, що суперечить ціннісній парадигмі ЄС. Відзначено відмінності між державами Балтії, які впливають на рівень ефективності постінтеграційної демократизації. Наголошено, що в усіх державах Балтії проблеми якості демократії напряму пов’язані з особливостями політичної культури населення (превалювання цінностей виживання над цінностями самовираження). Зроблено висновок: держави Балтії ще не відповідають повною мірою стандартам ЄС як інституційному, так і (особливо) на ціннісному рівні.
RUSSIAN AGGRESSION AS A CHALLENGE IN THE SPHERE OF UKRAINE'S NATIONAL SECURITY
Authors: Nikolaienko Natalia
Published: September 2021

It’s stated that the annexation of Crimea and Russian-Ukrainian hybrid war in Eastern Ukraine is a threat and a challenge not only to Ukraine’s national security, its sovereignty but also to the contemporary world order. Ukrainian political system has not yet formed an appropriate and effective means and mechanisms to counter Russian hybrid expansion. The author underscore that it is impossible to ensure national security of Ukraine today, using only traditional approaches combined to improve the state security functions or satisfy some narrow interests. This approach is ineffectual and also stimulates overspending of public resources and leads to duplication of the central authorities’ functions, and sometimes even starts threat to the state’s national interests. Russian aggression is the result of ineffectual government policies, rising corruption, and lack of sufficient resources to ensure living standards of the population. It is proved that for Russia the war with Ukraine is a perfect way to overcome the dysfunctional private system, as cheap media and small losses not only ensured survival but also laid the possibility of prolonged exposure to other geopolitical players, and development trends in the geopolitical environment.
ВНУТРІШНІЙ КОНТРОЛЬ ТА СИСТЕМА ВНУТРІШНЬОГО КОНТРОЛЮ В КОНТЕКСТІ МІЖНАРОДНОГО БІЗНЕСУ: ФОРМАЛІЗАЦІЯ ДЕФІНІЦІЙ
Authors: Semenets Alina
Published: September 2021

Нині незаперечно й істотно зростає роль і значення внутрішнього контролю у фінансово-господарській діяльності й управлінні підприємствами та економікою в цілому. Проведені дослідження виявили неоднозначність поглядів теоретиків й практиків у сфері контролю на наріжні та атрибутивні питання контролю, а саме: щодо сутності, змісту, ролі, значення внутрішнього контролю та системи внутрішнього контролю в системі управління підприємством, його фінансово-господарською діяльністю. Це вкрай негативно позначається на практиці ведення контрольної діяльності, в свою чергу негативно впливає на всю систему управління підприємством, і як наслідок на кінцеві результати фінансово-економічної діяльності. Метою даної роботи є дослідження означених питань для систематизації та узагальнення існуючих й можливих підходів для визначення понять «внутрішній контроль» і «система внутрішнього контролю». За результатами досліджень виявлено, що формалізація дефініцій «внутрішній контроль», «система внутрішнього контролю» має величезне значення для розвитку понятійно-категоріального апарату, як в теорії контролю й управління, так і економічної науки в цілому, а також має визначальне значення на практику управління , контролю та ведення фінансово-господарської діяльності в сучасних умовах господарювання. Узагальнено й згруповано існуючі підходи вітчизняних й зарубіжних фахівців у сфері контрольної та управлінської діяльності, як теоретиків, так і практиків, до визначення понять «внутрішній контроль», «система внутрішнього контролю». Проведені дослідження переконливо свідчать, що впровадження систем внутрішнього контролю в значній частині вітчизняних підприємств, особливо великих й середніх, що знаходяться в кризовому й передкризовому стані на сьогодні є однією з першочергових задач, що сприяє подоланню кризових явищ, істотного зниження ризиків, і як наслідок , підвищення ефективності всієї фінансово-господарської діяльності. Результати дослідження можуть бути використані в практиці міжнародного бізнесу, в економічній сфері міжнародних відносин. За результатами проведених досліджень надано авторське визначення понять «внутрішній контроль» та «система внутрішнього контролю», що на нашу думку, має сприяти подальшому розвитку теорії й практики контрольної діяльності, менеджменту, міжнародного менеджменту.
Mulheres que não cabem na tela: a (in)visibilidade periférica na publicidade de utilidade pública sobre a Covid-19
Authors: Felix Carla Baiense , Saldanha Patrícia Gonçalves
Published: September 2021

A pandemia de Covid-19 escancarou as desigualdades atreladas ao gênero. São as mulheres que estão à frente dos cuidados em casa e nos hospitais, sofrem com o aumento da violência doméstica e são atingidas de maneira mais severa pela crise econômica. A estas assimetrias somam-se as produzidas em razão de raça e classe, cujos efeitos só se tornam visíveis a partir de uma perspectiva interseccional. É basilar que as mulheres, sobretudo as negras e pobres, deveriam estar entre as prioridades da comunicação pública em tempos de pandemia. Neste artigo, com base em noções semióticas, analisaremos as campanhas sobre Covid-19 veiculadas pelo Governo Federal no site do Ministério da Saúde em 2020. O objetivo é compreender se e como essas mulheres ganham visibilidade nas peças e em que medida esta comunicação, que deveria se pautar pelo interesse público, contribui para enfrentar os problemas cotidianos.
Correlation between interleukin 4 (IL-4) expression and allergen sensitization in allergic rhinitis patients
Authors: Widuri Asti
Published: September 2021

Objective: The objective of this research was to measure the correlation of the expression of IL-4 with allergen sensitization in patients with allergic rhinitis.
Methods: Descriptive analytics was used as a method in this research, with a cross-sectional approach. The subjects were 37 persons with allergic rhinitis who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. This research was conducted in patients with clinical manifestations of symptoms of allergic rhinitis, and skin prick tests were carried out with ten types of allergens, which are: house dust, cotton, chicken feathers, shrimp, tuna, chicken egg-yolk, chicken egg-white, peanuts, tea, and chocolate. Venous blood sampling was performed for the Interleukin-4 (IL-4) test by using an ELISA device.
Results: The respondents were 37 patients with allergic rhinitis, of which 26 (70.3 %) were women and 11 (29.7 %) were men. The highest sensitivity to inhaled allergens in patients with rhinitis was to house dust in 31 samples (83.8 %). The correlation of the expression of IL-4 with sensitization to allergens in patients with allergic rhinitis based on the Spearman test resulted in p > 0.05, not significant with some allergens in a negative correlation.
Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between the expression of IL-4 and the sensitization to allergens in patients with allergic rhinitis.

Published: September 2021

Objetivos: Describir las afecciones dermatológicas más frecuentes en los pacientes con la COVID-19 y precisar si su presencia puede ser utilizada para establecer un diagnóstico temprano o para predecir la evolución de la infección.
Métodos: Se realizó una revisión en PubMed/MEDLINE y EMBASE de todos los artículos publicados entre enero 1 y noviembre 1 de 2020, con los términos de la búsqueda centrados en “SARS-CoV-2”, “COVID-19” y “Enfermedades cutáneas”.
Resultados: Cumplieron los criterios de inclusión 83 estudios. Lesiones de la piel han sido reportadas en 0.2 % de los pacientes. Las erupciones maculopapulares/morbiliformes, la urticaria y el angioedema, el patrón acral parecido a sabañones y las lesiones vesiculares fueron las dermatosis más frecuentemente informadas. Existen diferencias de opinión entre los investigadores, acerca de un posible valor diagnóstico o pronóstico de las afecciones cutáneas asociadas con la infección.
Conclusiones: Es recomendable considerar el diagnóstico de la infección por SARS-CoV-2 en pacientes que consultan por presentar lesiones cutáneas, urticaria o angioedema con o sin otros síntomas de la infección y en especial si existe algún antecedente de exposición reciente a otros sujetos infectados.

Orwellian nightmares and drone policing in Chilean municipalities: Legality, surveillance and the politics of low cost
Authors: Contreras Pablo
Published: September 2021

This paper addresses video surveillance of Chilean municipalities using drones as a low-cost policing response to urban insecurity and its impact on the right to privacy and personal data protection. The text explains the municipal police powers that have been invoked to uphold the legality of video surveillance at the local level. In examining four municipal cases, it looks at how surveillance is being carried out with drones and how this has been supervised by the competent authorities, concluding that there are real risks to privacy in the operation of surveillance systems. To this end, the issue is contrasted with the applicable regulatory standards and comparative solutions. Chile lacks specific regulations for video surveillance and a robust legal framework to protect personal data. The paper also evaluates the action of courts that have legitimized surveillance, even without a legal basis, concluding that the combination of low-cost and highly intrusive technologies and the lack of an adequate legal framework creates a significant threat to the exercise of privacy and personal data protection at municipal level.
Misrepresented Insecurities: An Annotated Interview about Displacement and Resistance of Central America’s “Eternos Indocumentados”
Authors: Abrego Leisy J. , Cárcamo Jennifer A.
Published: September 2021

Central Americans are widely misrepresented in United States mainstream media as one-dimensional peoples always associated with insecurities. In a powerful counter-representation, Director Jennifer A. Cárcamo released her documentary, Eternos Indocumentados: Central American Refugees in the United States in 2018.1 The film lays bare the root causes of forced migration, criminalization, displacement, and multiple insecurities while highlighting stories of resistance in the isthmus and the United States. This article uses an annotated interview format based on an iterative process to analyze the film’s key themes as they inform and are informed by the growing scholarly field of Central American Studies. We call for critical analysis of Central America and its people within broader processes of neoliberalism and global capitalism to better contextualize insecurities and allow for more complex and accurate representations of Central American realities.
Seguridad ciudadana en Chile: Las estadísticas sobre la delincuencia como tecnologías de producción de conocimiento
Authors: Araya-Moreno Javiera
Published: September 2021

Defining indicators and statistics as cultural artefacts, this article analyzes some of those that are used in Chile to account for the phenomenon of delinquency, aiming at exploring the epistemic logics that participate in their fabrication. A review of data produced by police services and the National Public Prosecutor’s office, as well as by victimization surveys, leads to the conclusion that these indicators combine different epistemic regimes –at least one based on legal and police knowledge, one based on the state’s management of citizens’ security, and one based on moral or normative judgements— hindering the sociological understanding of the phenomenon of delinquency, and its treatment by public debates and social intervention.

Psychosocial factors among end-stage kidney disease patients receiving hemodialysis treatment in Kumasi, Ghana
Authors: Thomas Nti Amoako , Frances Emily Owusu-Ansah
Published: September 2021

Background: End-Stage Kidney Disease and its maintenance hemodialysis treatment force patients to make several lifestyle changes to cope with this debilitating illness. These changes often trigger the onset of notable psychological distress and depressive symptoms. Furthermore, these negative psychological experiences can undermine the effectiveness of the treatment and consequently worsening the health and quality of life of patients. Objective: The study assessed the psychological well-being among hemodialysis patients in Kumasi Metropolis. Further, it explored the relationship between these psychosocial factors and demographic characteristics. Materials and Methods: 30 hemodialysis patients were recruited from two dialysis units in Kumasi, Ghana. Participants were aged 18 and above and had been on hemodialysis treatment for more than three months. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HADS) was used to assess depression and anxiety whiles the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support was used to assess perceived social support of participants. Results: The majority of respondents were males (60%), relative to females. The study revealed that 80% were severely depressed, 20% met the criteria for severe anxiety. Some participants reported moderate social support 53.3%; perceived social support being inversely correlated with both depression (r = -0.41; n = 30; p < 0.05) and anxiety (r = -0.59; n = 30; p < 0.05). Income levels were inversely correlated with depression (r = -0.41, n = 30; p < 0.05). Conclusion: Findings of the study suggest that the psychological wellbeing of hemodialysis patients is compromised. Social support appears to alleviate depression and anxiety. Implications for patient treatment are discussed.

Die perverse Logik des Dieselgate
Authors: Bayer Lothar , Gaines Jeremy
Published: September 2021

Der Versuch wird unternommen, mithilfe psychoanalytischer und sozialpsychologischer Theorien einige Aspekte des VW-Dieselskandals zu beleuchten. Die hochorganisierte Manipulation der Diesel-Emissionswerte beinhaltet unseren Erachtens einen pathologisch veränderten Realitätsbezug, den wir als Abwehrformation im Perversionsmodus beschreiben. Die Verwendung der Manipulationssoftware dient dazu, eine perversionstypische Spaltung entgegengesetzter Versionen der Wirklichkeit aufrechtzuerhalten und ihren Widerspruch trickreich zu überbrücken. Dadurch wird die Konfrontation mit der Realität und der Aufwand, sich an ihr im Sinne des Realitätsprinzips abzuarbeiten, außer Kraft gesetzt und nachhaltig umgangen. Beschrieben wird ein kollektiv wirksamer Verschleierungsprozess, der die Funktion hat, die selbst verursachten ökologischen und sozialen Schäden zu verleugnen und einer schmerzvollen Auseinandersetzung mit Schuld, Trauer und Wiedergutmachung zu entgehen.
Ukrainian Studies Direction in the Cultural and Scholarly Activity of the Ukrainian Military Emigration of the 20th-Century Interwar Period
Authors: Sydorenko Andrii
Published: September 2021

The purpose of this article is to investigate the specifics of Ukrainian studies in the cultural and scholarly activities of the Ukrainian military emigration. Based on its archival documents and research publications, such issues are covered: the origins of cultural and scholarly activities of the Ukrainian military emigration in view of its internment in 1920–1921; the place of the Ukrainian studies direction in the activities of scientific military societies and respective museum departments; Ukrainian studies aspects concerned by the representatives of the Ukrainian military emigration in their scientific works.The research process provided such results: the cultural and scientific activities of the Ukrainian military emigration stemmed from the work of the Military Section of the Ukrainian Diplomatic Mission and cultural and educational commissions, which provided camp soldiers with lectures on Ukrainian studies, literary and theatrical arts, and library work. The activities of scientific military societies and museum departments presented the direction of Ukrainian studies in the collection of archival documents and materials on the National Liberation War of 1917–1921, publication of thematic editions, lectures on Ukrainian history, and participation in ceremonial and memorial events, which were conducted in the academic environment of the Ukrainian emigration. In their research works, representatives of the Ukrainian military emigration touched upon aspects of the history of Ukraine during the National Liberation War of 1917–1921, the Cossacks, Ukrainian ethnography and geography. They managed to have accumulated significant intellectual outcome in the field of Ukrainian studies, which is still relevant today. The achievement of the author of the study is a synthesis created on the basis of a comprehensive study of sources and historiography, which consider the problem of Ukrainian military emigration in the interwar period in the light of Ukrainian studies, which is quite unusual for the respective field of domestic historiography. This made it possible to obtain new conclusions.
F. Vovk’s Research on Ukrainians in Dobruja in the Context of Domestic Ukrainian Studies Achievements
Authors: Kutsaieva Tamara
Published: September 2021

The article defines the topicality of the ongoing study of the collection “Rare books with bookplates, inscriptions, and marginalia with the name of Fedir Vovk” from the Library Fund of the National Museum of the Ukrainian History as the source base for ethnology, ethnography, local lore, and Ukrainian studies. It characterizes the object of the research – Fedir Vovk’s scholarly investigation of Ukrainians in Dobrudja (the historical and geographical region between the Lower Danube and the central part of the Balkan Mountains in Bulgaria and Romania), which he conducted during his forced political emigration to Romania in the 1880s. The research is performed by the de visu method and based on two main sources – rare books, including the monograph “Transdanubian Sich (local memoirs and stories)” (1883) and the article “Ukrainian Fishery in Dobrudja” (1899). The research tasks that combine Ukrainian and book studies are based on the relevance of the discussion and its interdisciplinary sense. It has been generalized that the past of the Ukrainian community of Dobrudja can be illustrated in a certain diversity of its history and traditions, although relying on a very narrow historiographical basis besides Fedir Vovk’s research. It has been observed that Fedir Vovk did not only dedicate almost 10 years of his scholarly work to the search, collection, and preservation of the historical memory of his compatriots abroad but also aimed to find the traces of Zaporizhzhian Cossacks military (administrative) centers to study their memory about homeland, way of life, and traditions in a new complex local geographical, social, and political context. The article outlines the research prospects in the context of the mission set by bibliologists, historians, and experts in Ukrainian studies to develop “Professor F. Vovk’s Memory Department”, which was founded in the 1920s by his associates and suspended by the Great Terror.

V. M. Zhirmunsky in Hungary, 1962: Towards the history of the scientific ties
Authors: Kovalev Mikhail V.
Published: September 2021

The scientific report of an outstanding linguist and literary critic V. M. Zhirmunsky on his trip to Budapest in October 1962 to an International conference on comparative literature is published with comments and the introduction. This document is not only remarkable in the context of the history of Soviet-Hungarian scientific ties and intellectual exchanges between socialist countries, but also in the light of the history of literary criticism and Slavic studies. It’s interesting because the document reflects the views of the major scientist on the development of international scientific contacts, shows his criticism of the Soviet academic bureaucracy and cautious dissatisfaction with the existing system of science management. The report is also important in connection with the study of intellectual transfers in the Cold War era. The presented document reveals pain points in the history of Soviet science diplomacy. A detailed introduction shows the interaction of V. M. Zhirmunsky and his colleagues with Hungarian scientists, their joint research projects. A special place is given to the figure of Prof. István Sőtér, a prominent Hungarian literary critic and writer, who was the initiator of the 1962 conference. His relations with Soviet scientists, in particular, with Yu. G. Oksman, whom the Hungarian scientist tried in vain to invite to the aforementioned Budapest conference. At the same time, it is concluded that difficulties in the development of international relations of Soviet scientists, in addition to ideological reasons, were due to low management efficiency and bureaucratization.

The scale of submarine channels can rival or exceed those formed on land and they form many of the largest sedimentary deposits on Earth. Turbidity currents that carve submarine channels pose a major hazard to offshore cables and pipelines, and transport globally significant amounts of organic carbon. Alongside the primary channels, many systems also exhibit a range of headless channels, which often abruptly terminate at steep headscarps. These enigmatic features are widespread in lakes and ocean floors, either as branches off the main submarine channel thalweg or as isolated secondary channels. Prior research has proposed that headless channels may be associated with early and incipient stages of channel development, but their formation and evolution remain poorly understood. Here, we investigate the morphology, origin and development of headless channels by examining repeat bathymetric surveys spanning a period from 1986 to 2018, in Bute Inlet, Canada. We show how channel switching processes, the extension of turbidity currents across distal fans, along with overbanking turbidity currents, are able to initiate headless channels in submarine settings. We discuss how the evolution of headless channels plays an important role in shaping submarine channels, promoting channel extension and modifying the overall longitudinal profile, as well as impacting the character of sedimentary records in channel-lobe transition zones.
A Uniform Conspiracy Mindset or Differentiated Reactions to Specific Conspiracy Beliefs? Evidence From Latent Profile Analyses
Authors: Frenken Marius , Imhoff Roland
Published: September 2021

Conspiracy theories arise for virtually any public event (e.g., pandemics, assassinations, disasters). In light of positively correlated endorsements of such beliefs, many have pointed to a more general mindset behind this. Others have argued against this notion of a consistent mindset. Applying Latent Profile Analyses, we examine the evidence for either uniform or differentiated response patterns to various items in five studies (reanalyzed datasets, total N = 7877). Overall, the results speak strongly to uniform reactions that could be summarized as a general mindset, but also revealed important qualifications. First, small parts of the samples show more differentiated patterns in relation to extraterrestrial cover-up narratives (Studies 2 to 4) or contradictory theories (Study 5). Second, indicators dealing with the general suppression of relevant information in the public were among the items with the highest approval ratings across all classes. One discussed implication is that existing scales are useful tools to measure conspiracy mindsets. Another implication is that the average endorsement of any conspiracy theory is a function of both the respondents’ conspiracy mindset and the item’s psychometric difficulty, strongly suggesting interpreting item endorsement only in relative terms, but refraining from interpreting a high agreement as an absolute number.

Role Relations in George Orwell’s 1984: Agency-Goal Analysis
Authors: Paudel Prakash
Published: September 2021

This research paper concentrates on George Orwell’s novel 1984, published in 1949. The novel explicates the ugly lifestyle of citizens under the rule of a powerful totalitarian ruler Big Brother. Being a ruler, the Big Brother has ultimate political power, and that is, in the narrative, linguistically asserted. This research paper examines how such political and social power of a character/person is imposed in the linguistic territory of a narrative in the light of Critical Discourse Analysis. Critical Discourse Analysis evaluates how the social and political agency of any person in any given discourse works in the linguistic form, theorists like Anthony Giddens elaborate on the role of agency in shaping the social structure. For the purpose of examining the agency in the narrative, with a particular focus on agency-patient role relation, this research brings in the role relations as the trope and, thus, concludes that totalitarian rulers drain out the agency of the citizens even in linguistic form, along with socio-political agency.
Nepal's Lumbini is more than a birth place of Gautama Buddha
Authors: Bista Binod P.
Published: September 2021

Lumbini is so far unrecognized for its importance and significance by placing all attention to it as Siddhartha Gautam’s (Buddha) birth place. It is this very place where all three schools of Buddhism — Theravada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana come together. Buddha’s message of peace and harmony is practiced in daily life by the local inhabitants professing different religions such as Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam. Ancient Kapilvastu covers such a wide area that it has become a goldmine for archaeologists for far and wide to have an opportunity to study civilizations and cultures which date back the pre Christian Era. United Nations Secretary General U Thant spearheaded the development of present Lumbini with help from an International Committee for the Development of Lumbini which he formed and saw that the task of a Master Plan for Lumbini was given to one uniquely qualified architect Kenzo Tange, a person with a vision. With many changes and adjustments from the original Master Plan, Lumbini is fast losing its luster by the construction of physical structures that hardly conform to the bylaws written during the approval of the Master Plan. Yet by the sheer strength of Buddha himself Lumbini retains its un-parallel beauty, serenity, tranquillity, and universality. Lumbini has reached this stage of development amidst several unwarranted controversies and mismanagement, but not all is lost. Lumbini can offer three distinct services to humanity as Buddha would have wanted: Guide those who believe in Buddha as God as they can find the almighty in every inch of the Sacred Garden; Lessen the pains and sufferings of others who seek to have a better life through meditation and prayers; and create a congregation of peace lovers who are in search of peace for themselves, their communities, their countries and the whole world.
Symbolism behind Art and Colour denoted on the Buddhist Prayer Flags
Authors: Rana Poonam R.L.
Published: September 2021

Sacred Prayer Flags of different colours and symbols are not just decorative pieces. Symbols have more deeper meaning and the attached intangible beliefs than their mere outer creativity. Each and every colour and objects symbolizes good fortune, health, happiness, protection. The prayer flags are very sacred, because they contain texts from the holy sutras termed as 'mantras' and symbols that should be respected. Hence the painted or printed objects and colours are of great values to humanity.
“Between Japan and California”: Imaginative Pacific Geography and East Asian Culture in Penelope Aubin’s The Noble Slaves
Authors: Choi Yoojung
Published: September 2021

Penelope Aubin’s mixed-up representation of Japan and the Pacific in The Noble Slaves (1722) has long been considered as an indication of the author’s insufficient geographical knowledge. In this essay, I reassess the East Asian setting of The Noble Slaves in the context of eighteenth-century geographical discourses. By examining Herman Moll’s maps as possible source materials, I argue that Aubin’s imaginative geography reflects not her personal ignorance but the limitations and uncertainties of contemporary cartographical knowledge about the North Pacific. Aubin uses the speculative nature of early Enlightenment geographical discourses for a narrative experiment and reimagining of East Asia. Aubin’s unique representation of East Asian cultures, such as Japanese Christian “Indians” and the ancient pagan temple, hinges on the emotions of wonder and curiosity, which can be read as a criticism of Robinson Crusoe’s hostile attitude toward the Far East in Daniel Defoe’s The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe (1719). This essay ultimately situates Aubin as a significant participant in early eighteenth-century knowledge production about the world.

OBJECTIVE

Schwann cells (SCs) have been shown to play an essential role in axon regeneration in both peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) and spinal cord injuries (SCIs). The transplantation of SCs as an adjunctive therapy is currently under investigation in human clinical trials due to their regenerative capacity. Therefore, a reliable method for procuring large quantities of SCs from peripheral nerves is necessary. This paper presents a well-developed, validated, and optimized manufacturing protocol for clinical-grade SCs that are compliant with Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMPs).

METHODS

The authors evaluated the SC culture manufacturing data from 18 clinical trial participants who were recruited for autologous SC transplantation due to subacute SCI (n = 7), chronic SCI (n = 8), or PNIs (n = 3). To initiate autologous SC cultures, a mean nerve length of 11.8 ± 3.7 cm was harvested either from the sural nerve alone (n = 17) or with the sciatic nerve (n = 1). The nerves were digested with enzymes and SCs were isolated and further expanded in multiple passages to meet the dose requirements for transplantation.

RESULTS

An average yield of 87.2 ± 89.2 million cells at P2 and 150.9 ± 129.9 million cells at P3 with high viability and purity was produced. Cell counts and rates of expansion increased with each subsequent passage from P0 to P3, with the largest rate of expansion between P2 and P3. Larger harvest nerve lengths correlated significantly with greater yields at P0 and P1 (p < 0.05). In addition, a viability and purity above 90% was sustained throughout all passages in nearly all cell products.

CONCLUSIONS

This study presents reliable CGMP-compliant manufacturing methods for autologous SC products that are suitable for regenerative treatment of patients with SCI, PNI, or other conditions.
