Determining urvban flood vulnerability using indicator based approach
Authors:   Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, Sarmah Tanaya ,   India, Das Sutapa ,   Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur; India
Published: August 2021

With increase in urbanisation and climate change, urban flood (UF) is becoming more frequent and intense – surpassing other types of flooding in terms of death and damage to critical infrastructure (CI) buildings. Guwahati, gateway to the eight states of north-east India, is prone to recurring UF – three to four times annually. The lack of an urban drainage network has added to the suffering of the residents. A major portion of the building stock are non-engineered and many new constructions are without UF compliance. Considering that the population and buildings are at risk, this research aims to develop a comprehensive UF vulnerability index (UFVI) as a combination of two indices – human vulnerability index (HVI) and building vulnerability index (BVI). Modified on various concepts of vulnerability assessment for hazards in the developing world, the UFVI has been proposed considering inherent hardships related exclusively to UF. For this purpose, in a prior survey conducted in the 31 municipal wards of the city, relevance of the HVI was checked by choosing residents as survey respondents and the BVI will be conducted based on the concept of rapid visual screening (RVS) of buildings. The HVI stratified the population into five tiers (‘very high’ to ‘very low’) and the BVI is expected to stratify the CIs similarly. These two indices will be combined in HAZUS-MH platform to obtain the UFVI ward-wise. This paper puts forward a theoretical explanation of the method that will be incorporated once the BVI is developed and while combining HVI and BVI to develop the UFVI. The composite UFVI that will be obtained will contribute to long-term actions for improving resilience of the existing population and CIs of the city against UF

Smart cities utilise technological and digital solutions to resolve urban issues, to enhance accessibility of services, and increase the quality of life (ASEAN, 2018). In 2018, Singapore leveraged its ASEAN presidency to initiate the ASEAN Smart Cities Network to develop a collaborative forum to improve translation of smart technologies between ASEAN cities by exploring potential synergies and complementarities, developing tailored action plans and sharing best practices. However, the translation, adoption and implementation of technologies across unique geographical, developmental and governance contexts vary substantially (Taeihagh, 2017). Without sufficiently understanding these variations, the translation process will likely fail. To understand these variations and their implications for city governance, we seek to unpack the different institutional forces that shape the adoption and implementation of such technologies. The paper aims therefore to identify key aspects of urban governance that guide the adoption and implementation of smart city technologies, by questioning (1) the drivers for smart city adoption, (2) the origin of policy ideas, (3) the factors hindering or facilitating their local translation, and (4) the impact of smart city development on city-level governance. This paper is part of an ongoing research on smart cities in Indonesia.
Future Urban Mobility Development Framework to Maximise Benefits of Plugin Electric Vehicle Penetration in ASEAN Countries
Authors:   Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia, Purwanto Alloysius Joko , Lutfiana Dian ,   Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia
Published: August 2021

Several Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) members have recently developed strategies for low carbon-emission mobility to decrease oil import dependency. The strategies emphasise, amongst others, the importance of removing obstacles to electrification of transport and promoting market development of road plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs). Concerns about the impacts of PEV penetration include how to ensure that (i) electricity used to feed the vehicles will be produced mostly from renewable energy sources to lower carbon emissions, and (ii) additional electricity demand will not put additional stress on urban electricity grid systems. We deduce two recommendations. First, because they use fossil-fuel energyintensive electric power, ASEAN countries need to increase urban density and compactness and stop urban sprawl, which will minimise energy use in transport, including PEVs. Generalised PEV travel cost will continue to decrease as new technology is increasingly adopted and the use of PEVs becomes more widespread. Only when a country develops renewable energy to generate electricity, such as through home-based solar photovoltaic systems, can it relax its policies on urban sprawl. Second, ASEAN countries need to avoid putting stress on the electric power grid and to maximise the use of renewables to generate power. Integrating these objectives will help determine the location of charging facilities and the measures to support mobility

Salafisme di Papua, Indonesia: Sebuah Kajian Mengenai Kelompok Salafi-Wahhabi Ja'far Umar Thalib
Authors: NA Ridwan
Published: August 2021

The study of Salafism in Indonesia has been narrated its presence, development, activities and ideology in Java. In-depth research on Salafism in Papua is relatively inadequate. This article aims to fill the gap by studying Salafism, specifically the Salafy group of Jafar Umar Thalib (JUT) in Jayapura City and Keerom Regency, Papua. In addition, the responses of local community and Nahdhatul Ulama (NU) Papua toward JUT group will be reviewed. This article is based on the author's field research in Papua in 2018. The main data was collected from interviews, observations and publications related to Salafi-Wahhabi groups. Meanwhile, to explore the perceptions and responses of stakeholders, local communities and organisations, the authors interviewed informants from local residents and leaders of the Papua and Keerom NU Region. This article argues that the presence of Salafism tends to disrupt community harmony and peacebuilding in Papua. Such understanding provides a holistic view of how Salafism has sought to shape its narrative in Papua and NU Papua has rejected the narrative, which has received less attention from researchers in the past.

Exploring meaning in depth is also important considering that not a few people who read it, but he does not know what the meaning and meaning contained in the Book of al- Barzanji. This research is based on the idea that moral education is one of the important things that must be considered. Theoretically moral education references can come from various sources, one of which is a written source, in this case the Book of Al-Barzanji that explains the character of the Prophet Muhammad. The research method used is the content analysis method because this research is a study of the text contained in the book of al- Barzanji and through a qualitative analysis approach. This research emphasizes the power of data analysis (content analysis) on data sources obtained from books, writings or so-called literature studies and by relying on existing theories to be interpreted broadly and deeply. The data collection technique used is Literature Study, by collecting books / documents related to research. The primary source is Al-Barzanji by Shaykh Ja'far al-Barzanji. Based on the results of the study, obtained two things, the first is the value of moral education contained in the book Al-Barzanji includes six core values, namely: Al-Sidqu's value (honest); the value of al-Ulfah (merciful); the value of al-fAfwu (forgiving); Anisatun rating (friendly) ; the value of al-Khairu (kindness);Simple and Juhud values (have a work ethic).

Jypp, Dompa och Jackson Pollock - Berättelser om plats, förortiska och överklass i ett innerstadsgymnasium
Authors: Jonsson Rickard , Åhlund Anna
Published: August 2021

Jypp, Dompa and Jackson Pollock: Narratives on place, urban vernaculars, and upper class at a prestigious upper secondary school. Labelling a linguistic style by appointing it to certain groups of speakers and where they live can be a deeply problematic enterprise as both identities, language use and space become fixed and limited. In Sweden the speech style called Rinkeby Swedish (RS) has become an icon of ethnic Otherness, educational failure, and of an aggressive sexist and homophobic masculinity – ascribed to a fixed locality in the outskirts of the big cities. In this paper we have turned our gaze towards a place that have typically not been associated with RS before: a Stockholm elite school. The analysis reveals how a group of students, illustrated by how the participant Wille, perform authenticity and indexically anchor their linguistic practices and epistemics in various linguistic contexts. In a case study, we explore how the participants talk about and use not one but many different linguistic styles. We argue that the participants employ these styles as resources to comment on locality as well as social hierarchies in the school and the society at large.
Bortom mitt barn och andras ungar. Omsorgsetisk grammatik för skolväljande föräldrar
Authors: Sjögren Hanna
Published: August 2021

A grammar of ethics of care for school choosing parents. To choose a school for one’s child is part and parcel of urban parenting in the contemporary Swedish educational system. While previous studies have investigated the consequences of the school choice empirically through both qualitative and quantitative methods, there are no previous studies investigating the issue of school choice as an ethical concern. Through the author’s situated experience of being a school choosing parent in Sweden’s third largest city, Malmö, the author uses educational philosopher Nel Nodding’s work on ethics of care and applies it to the question of what situated, responsible parenting in Malmö could mean today. The author introduces the metaphor of a grammar of ethics of care where the relationship between “our kid” and “our kids” is seen as relational, with an opening for caring for children outside the immediate family.
The Who? Didactics, differentiation and the biopolitics of inequality
Authors: Bylund Linus , Knutsson Beniamin
Published: August 2021

The three didactic questions – what?, how? and why? – are increasingly supplemented with a fourth: who? Drawing on Therborn’s distinction between difference and inequality, as well as on biopolitical theory, the present paper engages critically with the didactic who?-question. The paper situates the who?-question in broader discussions of educational differentiation, suggesting that it encompasses a tension between the recognition of difference and (re)production of inequality. Arguably, this tension becomes visible, and possibly more navigable, when we pose “Therbornian questions”. The paper further suggests that the who?-question can be understood, in biopolitical terms, as a technique for constructing various student populations as appropriate for different kinds of education. Such management of difference, the paper warns, can easily slip into a biopolitics of inequality. Despite our critical observations, we conclude that there might still be radical potential in the who?-question, provided that it is handed over to the students and that careful attention is paid to societal relations.
LncRNA DRAIC regulates cell proliferation and migration by affecting the miR-34a-5p/ITGA6 signal axis in Hirschsprung’s disease
Authors: Sun Chuancheng , Xu Bing , Wang Liang , Su Yilin
Published: August 2021

Background: Hirschsprung’s disease (HSCR) is a common defect in newborns, and studies have revealed that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is involved in the progression of HSCR. This research study aims to investigate the mechanism of downregulated RNA in cancer (DRAIC) on cell proliferation and migration in HSCR.

Methods: Quantitative reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of DRAIC in HSCR bowel stenosis tissues and normal colon tissues. Cell-counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and Transwell assays were employed to explore whether cellular functions change after overexpression or knockdown of the DRAIC in SH-SY5Y cells and human 293T cells. Protein expression levels were determined by Western blot analysis. RNA pull-down and dual-luciferase reporter assays were used to confirm the competitive relationship of DRAIC and integrin subunit alpha 6 (ITGA6) through their association with miR-34a-5p.

Results: The lncRNA DRAIC was significantly increased in colon tissue from HSCR patients. The overexpression of DRAIC inhibited SH-SY5Y cell and human 293T cell proliferation and migration. Knockdown of DRAIC, however, promoted cell proliferation and migration. The RNA pull-down and dual-luciferase reporter assays have proven the competitive relationship between DRAIC and ITGA6 through their association with miR-34a-5p. Further rescue experiments have confirmed that DRAIC regulates cell proliferation and migration by affecting the miR-34a-5p/ITGA6 signal axis in HSCR.

Conclusion: DRAIC promoted cell proliferation and migration by regulating the miR-34a-5p/ITGA6 signal axis in HSCR.

Authors: Pereira Alessandra Andrade , Oliveira Murilo Alvarenga
Published: August 2021

Este estudo utilizou o caso do setor brasileiro de fertilizantes, que vem passando por mudanças devido à inserção de novas Unidades de Fertilizantes Nitrogenados (UFNs) na rede logística de uma empresa nacional. O estudo limitou-se à ureia, responsável por 60% do mercado de nitrogênio no Brasil. Para analisar a alocação da demanda, devido à inserção das novas UFNs, foi utilizado o Problema Clássico de Transporte, minimizando o custo de transporte do processo de distribuição do fertilizante nitrogenado ureia. Após a coleta de dados relativos ao estudo de caso, simulações de cenário com a inserção das UFNs foram realizadas por meio do software AMPL e do solver CPLEX. Os resultados mostraram que a inclusão da UFN III na rede logística da empresa foi responsável pela redução mais significativa dos custos de transporte entre os cenários simulados, confirmando que o planejamento da rede logística e o alinhamento entre os níveis estratégico e tático são possíveis instrumentos para contribuir com a otimização da distribuição de ureia.

Published: August 2021

O presente estudo buscou analisar a inserção da mulher em cargos de chefia em uma Instituição Federal de Ensino Superior e os desafios vivenciados inerentes ao cargo exercido. Quanto aos procedimentos metodológicos, a pesquisa é de natureza qualitativa e utilizou entrevistas semiestruturadas como estratégia de coleta de dados. As participantes da pesquisa foram treze servidoras em cargos de direção, sendo oito docentes e cinco técnicas administrativas. Verificou-se na instituição que apesar do equilíbrio entre os percentuais de servidores homens e mulheres, não se observa paridade nos cargos de direção, sobretudo nos níveis mais altos. Notou-se que a ascensão das respondentes aos cargos de direção está vinculada à experiência, à atuação e à própria formação das entrevistadas. Foi possível identificar sobrecarga de trabalho decorrente do cargo de chefia em exercício, que se potencializa com a utilização de recursos tecnológicos para fins de trabalho em momentos de lazer, o que gerou em alguns casos problemas de saúde e conflitos familiares. As mulheres entrevistadas se dividiram equitativamente quanto a fato de perceber atitudes discriminatórias na referida universidade, porém foi possível observar que mesmo aquelas que negam haver discriminação relatam fatos vivenciados na instituição que se caracterizam como atitudes discriminatórias de gênero.

Published: August 2021

Esta investigação teve como objetivo averiguar se o modelo de balanced scorecard (BSC) implantado pelo Tribunal de Justiça (TJ) de cada estado do Brasil e do Distrito Federal está alinhado conforme preconiza a literatura, bem como se segue a mesma linha de raciocínio estratégico pelo fato dos tribunais realizarem a mesma atividade. A amostra constituiu-se dos 26 tribunais de justiça dos estados do Brasil e do TJ do Distrito Federal. Trata-se de um trabalho exploratório e documental, com abordagem qualitativa, que utilizou a técnica de análise de conteúdo nos documentos que reportavam informações sobre o BSC, disponibilizados nos websites dos tribunais em estudo, para coleta de dados. Os achados indicam que toda a amostra utiliza o mapa estratégico (ME) propagado pela literatura do BSC. Em consonância com o modelo de BSC proposto para esta investigação, os principais resultados denotam: (i) estrutura básica com três perspectivas: sociedade; processos internos e; recursos, na maioria dos mapas avaliados; (ii) a posição hierárquica das perspectivas sociedade e recursos compatíveis com a literatura; em 100% dos mapas, a dimensão sociedade foi encontrada no topo, indicando ser a perspectiva mais importante para a obtenção de resultados; em sua base, a maioria traz a dimensão recursos, indicando como deve iniciar o processo estratégico e (iii) 17 mapas estratégicos, 63% da amostra, apresentaram a missão no topo da cadeia causa e efeito. Ademais, ao avaliar os objetivos estratégicos, observou-se que, em sua maioria, são caracterizados de acordo com a individualidade de cada TJ. Dos 149 objetivos estratégicos existentes, 134 são exclusivos de cada tribunal, denotando-se apenas seis objetivos comuns, demonstrando, em sua maioria, dispersão quanto aos fins a que se propõem cada um dos tribunais, embora possuam as mesmas funções sociais. Apenas cinco mapas estratégicos apresentam relação causa e efeito entre objetivos e perspectivas. Constata-se a existência de semelhanças nos desenhos dos mapas estratégicos implantados nos tribunais do estudo, no entanto destacam-se características idiossincráticas na sua elaboração.

Transmedia narratives became an entertainment experience in which visual elements, characters, and objects create an imaginary world, conquering large audiences in a sequence of movies. From toy lines to Hollywood blockbusters, the Transformers movies franchise has turned into an opportunity for brands to reach consumers in a world where technological devices have changed how they absorb advertisements. In this context, we propose a longitudinal analysis of brand placements in the five movies launched under the Transformers label from 2007 to 2017. A 65-hours passive observation of the movies’ content identified several insertions, most frequent brands, and most frequent product categories in each film, classifying data according to placement type, prominence, congruency, and product category criteria. A longitudinal analysis of the five films revealed that brand placement constitutes an effective strategy once its use showed to be consistent over the years. Congruency was the most relevant factor in brand communication and the movies over time, helping consumers familiarize themselves with brands, associate brands to the story, and enhance brand recall. This analysis indicates a successful integration of brand and film components, resulting in adequate placement insertions, promoting benefits for companies, brands, and the cinematographic industry.

Art Nouveau
Authors: Ashby Charlotte
Published: August 2021

Art Nouveau presents a new overview of the international Art Nouveau movement. Art Nouveau represented the search for a new style for a new age, a sense that the conditions of modernity called for fundamentally new means of expression. Art Nouveau emerged in a world transformed by industrialisation, urbanisation and increasingly rapid means of transnational exchange, bringing about new ways of living, working and creating.

The book is structured around key themes for understanding the aesthetics and contexts of Art Nouveau, including form and ornament, symbolism and psychology, new forms of transport and communication, colonialism and imperialism, the rise of the 'modern woman' and the role of the patron-collector and the professional designer. Ashby explores the movement through 65 varied case studies of architecture, interiors, paintings, furniture, graphic arts, glass and ceramics by artists and designers, drawn from eighteen countries from a wide range of countries.
Adam Smith’s The Theory of Moral Sentiments
Authors: McHugh John
Published: August 2021

Many contemporary readers are just now discovering Adam Smith's The Theory of Moral Sentiments (TMS). It is increasingly being recognised as a foundational text in moral philosophy and in Adam Smith's oeuvre more generally. This is the first companion to guide readers through TMS and uncover what Smith thinks, why he thinks it, why he might be wrong to think it!

While Adam Smith is best known for a Wealth of Nations there is a history of seriously misinterpreting this text as an unnuanced celebration of unfettered capitalism. The Theory of Moral Sentiments is a kind of corrective to these naïve readings. As such, any serious consideration of Adam Smith's work should also include TMS.

John McHugh's guide provides detailed analysis of TMS while never losing sight of the text in the context of Smith's writings and world view more generally. It offers both an introduction to the importance and insight of TMS while also functioning as a great way in to Adam Smith as a philosopher.
Information Design for the Common Good
Authors: Marchese Courtney
Published: August 2021

This book explores the increasing altruistic impulse of the design community to address some of the world’s most difficult problems including social, political, environmental, and global health causes at the local, national, and global scale.

Each chapter strategically combines theory and practice to examine how to identify causes and locate accurate data, truth and integrity in information design, the information design/data visualization process, understanding audiences, crafting meaningful narratives, and measuring the impact of a design. A variety of international case studies and interviews with practitioners illustrate the challenges and impact of designing for social agendas. These range from traditional media outlets like The New York Times and The Guardian, popular science organizations like National Geographic and Scientific American, to health institutes like The World Health Organization and The Center for Disease Control.
Shaping Femininity
Authors: Bendall Sarah A.
Published: August 2021

Shaping Femininity is the first large-scale study of the materiality, production, consumption and meanings of foundation garments for women in sixteenth and seventeenth-century England, when the female silhouette underwent a dramatic change. During these centuries the desirable female body was achieved by using stiffened garments called bodies and farthingales. It was this structured female silhouette first seen in sixteenth-century fashionable dress that existed in various extremes in Western Europe and beyond in the form of stays, corsets, hoop skirts and crinolines until the twentieth century.

With a nuanced approach that incorporates transdisciplinary methodologies and a stunning array of visual and written sources, the book reorients discussions about female foundation garments in English and wider European history. Far from being vain victims of fashion, women were calculated consumers who wore foundations garments for a variety of reasons: for practical considerations relating to the fit of everyday dress, to bodily beauty ideals, social status and modesty. The book argues that a history of bodies and farthingales is a history of the female body and these garments helped to shape and define changing notions of femininity in early modern England, notions that continue to influence western ideals today.

Beautifully illustrated in full colour throughout, this book offers a fascinating insight into dress and fashion in the early modern period, and offers much of value to all those interested in the history of early modern women and gender, material culture, and the history of the body, as well as curators and reconstructors.
Sounding Bodies
Authors: Cahill Ann J. , Hamel Christine
Published: August 2021

“In compelling and intricately argued ways, the authors make a resounding case for understanding how vocal sonority is intrinsic to self-identity and self-reception … Required Reading.” - Jane Boston, Principal Lecturer, Voice Studies, Royal Central School of Speech and Drama

A new, provocative study of the ethical, political, and social meanings of the everyday voice.

Utilising the framework of feminist philosophy, authors Ann J. Cahill and Christine Hamel approach the phenomenon of voice as a lived, sonorous and embodied experience marked by the social structures that surround it, including systemic forms of injustice such as ableism, sexism, racism, and classism.

By developing novel theoretical constructs such as “intervocality” and “respiratory responsibility,” Cahill and Hamel cut through the static between theory and praxis and put forward exciting theories on how human vocal sound can perpetuate -- and challenge -- persistent inequalities.

Sounding Bodies presents a powerful model of how the seemingly disparate disciplines of philosophy and voice/speech training can, in conversation with each other, generate illuminating insights about our vocal lives and identities.
Franco’s Famine
Authors: Ángel del Arco Blanco Miguel , Anderson Peter
Published: August 2021

At least 200,000 people died from hunger or malnutrition-related diseases in Spain during the 1940s. This book provides a political explanation for the famine and brings together a broad range of academics based in Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia to achieve this. Topics include the political causes of the famine, the physical and social consequences, the ways Spaniards tried to survive, the regime’s reluctance to accept international relief, the politics of cooking at a time of famine, and the memory of the famine.

The volume challenges the silence and misrepresentation that still surround the famine. It reveals the reality of how people perished in Spain because the Francoist authorities instituted a policy of food self-sufficiency (or autarky): a system of price regulation which placed restrictions on transport as well as food sales. The contributors trace the massive decline in food production which followed, the hoarding which took place on an enormous scale and the vast and deeply iniquitous black market that subsequently flourished at a time when salaries plunged to 50% below their levels in 1936: all contributing factors in the large-scale atrocity explored fully here for the first time.
Theater of Lockdown
Authors: Fuchs Barbara
Published: August 2021

Offering one of the first scholarly examinations of digital and distanced performance since the global shutdown of theaters in March 2020, Barbara Fuchs provides both a record of the changes and a framework for thinking through theater’s transformation.

Though born of necessity, recent productions offer a new world of practice, from multi-platform plays on Zoom, WhatsApp, and Instagram, to enhancement via filters and augmented reality, to urban distanced theater that enlivens streetscapes and building courtyards. Based largely outside the commercial theater, these productions transcend geographic and financial barriers to access new audiences, while offering a lifeline to artists. This study charts how virtual theater puts pressure on existing assumptions and definitions, transforming the conditions of both theater-making and viewership. How are participatory, site-specific, or devised theater altered under physical-distancing requirements? How do digital productions blur the line between film and theater? What does liveness mean in a time of pandemic?

In its seven chapters, Theater of Lockdown focuses on digital and distanced productions from the Americas, Europe, and Australia, offering scholarly analysis and interviews. Productions examined include Theater in Quarantine’s “closet work” in New York; Forced Entertainment’s (Sheffield, UK), End Meeting for All, I, II, and III; the work of Madrid-based company Grumelot; and the virtuosic showmanship of EFE Tres in Mexico City.
Dêixis pessoal e temporal: aspectos sociointeracionais e sociodiscursivos
Authors: Dos Santos Leonor Werneck , Morais Margareth
Published: August 2021

O objetivo deste artigo é discutir o fenômeno da dêixis pessoal e temporal, trazendo à tona aspectos sociointeracionais e sociodiscursivos que ampliam a compreensão do papel dos elementos dêiticos. Partiremos de um breve histórico da literatura tradicional sobre dêixis (LYONS, 1977; FILLMORE, 1984; BUHLER, 1977), para chegar a estudos mais recentes (FONSECA, 1992; CORNISH, 2007; SANTOS E CAVALCANTE, 2014; dentre outros), que contemplam questionamentos acerca do caráter textual-discursivo do fenômeno. Com base em Marmaridou (2001), Maalej (2011) e Cabral e Santos (2016), analisaremos notícias esportivas mostrando como a dêixis atua na construção do texto, marcando posicionamentos ideológicos e construindo sentidos que vão além da classificação tradicional.
Sobre a singularidade das formas co-referenciais metafóricas
Authors: Miletta Martins Erik
Published: August 2021

Este artigo tem por objetivo discutir as bases epistemológicas, teóricas e metodológicas para a definição e análise de estratégias textuais co-referenciais recategorizadoras – sob a forma de anáforas nominais como as sinonímias e as paráfrases – nas quais há emprego de metáforas. Aponta-se, aqui, a singularidade destes processos diante de dois movimentos inferenciais distintos, relativos à co-referência e à configuração conceptual da metáfora no efeito de recategorização. Para atingirmos este objetivo, trazemos alguns exemplos extraídos de um ambiente retórico religioso, altamente produtivo para a ilustração da peculiaridade teórico-metodológica dos processos co-referenciais metafóricos.
