O Centro Promotor dos Melhoramentos das Classes Laboriosas
Authors: Carvalho Joao Lazaro
Published: November 2019

Durante décadas o Centro Promotor funcionou como o grande pilar do movimento operário português, estando completamente integrado na sociedade liberal. Neste artigo pretendemos analisar a integração e a rutura do movimento operário na sociedade liberal através o Centro Promotor, entre 1850 a 1873. Uma baliza cronológica caracterizada por um despontar de um movimento operário ordeiro e conciliador com o regime liberal que, mais tarde, vai ser substituído por uma outra geração de socialistas mais radical que provoca a desintegração do movimento operário no regime liberal.
Caminhos de ferro portugueses na década de 1890
Authors: Pereira Hugo Silveira
Published: November 2019

Na historiografia ferroviária nacional, a década de 1890 praticamente não é analisada criticamente, por se ter tratado de um período de forte retração no setor, que contrastou com os pesados investimentos feitos nos decénios anteriores, especialmente o de 1880. Neste artigo, proponho uma análise global desta época, abrangendo tanto o setor ferroviário do continente como o das colónias, uma vez que a situação de um não pode ser totalmente compreendida sem se conhecer a situação do outro. Realço a oposição entre a manutenção da crença no technological fix, característica da Regeneração e da classe engenheira nacional coeva, e um pessimismo tecnológico advindo das desilusões com os resultados do investimento ferroviário e com as companhias privadas estrangeiras que o agenciaram, e que atingiram o seu auge com o ultimato de 1890 e com a bancarrota parcial de 1892. Recorrendo aos debates mantidos no parlamento, a relatórios de engenheiros coevos e à literatura existente, explicito como, no final do período em estudo, a fé na tecnologia prevaleceu e conseguiu suplantar um grave momento de crise.
Reformasi, Religious Diversity, and Islamic Radicalism after Suharto
Authors: Hasan Noorhaidi
Published: November 2019

This paper examines the rising tide of ethno-religious conflicts and Islamic radicalism in the political arena of post-Suharto Indonesia. In the climate of Reformasi that heralded freedom of expression, ethnic and religious violence flared up in various regions of Indonesia, threatening a society apparently imbued with a culture of tolerance based on harmonious inter-ethnic and inter-faith relations. In a flurry of conflicts, a number of militant Muslim groups arose and engulfed the political arena of post-Suharto Indonesia by calling for jihad and other violent actions. The rise of the groups gave a remarkable boost to the explosion of militant religious discourses and activism that threaten Indonesias reputation for practising a tolerant and inclusive form of Islam and threaten, too, the integrity of the Indonesian nation-state as well. Against the backdrop of the stateIslam relationship in the New Order, this paper looks at how this phenomenon is embedded in the states failure to manage properly religious diversity and civic pluralism. In the context of mounting competition among elites, religion has become tremendously politicised and has served more as a tactical tool used by political contenders in their own interests. Herein lies the importance of the proper management of religious diversity as a mechanism to guarantee individual freedoms and maintain the rights of religious minorities.
Inequalities and Indirect Con?ict Interventions: The Evidence on Perceptions of Difference, Social Cohesion, and Sub-national Variations in Violence in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia
Authors: Diprose Rachael
Published: November 2019

This paper examines the empirical evidence on social cohesion and perceived horizontal inequalities in two neighbouring districts in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. Despite having similar sized groups (religiously polarised, ethnically fragmented) and the opportunity to mobilise during the national political transition beginning in 1998, only one of the districts had serious violence. First, the evidence suggests that such violence was linked to perceived horizontal inequalities in terms of access to the state, particularly in terms of religious identity in the district affected by con?ict. In the same district, there was also evidence of weaker social cohesion: there were more pervasive negative stereotypes of other groups along religious lines, and the least inter-religious mixing in terms of everyday interaction and friendships. These attitudes and less frequent mixing were more likely, too, among the group that was initially marginalised from the state when power-sharing arrangements broke down. Meanwhile, in the district with less violence, there was more frequent inter-religious group mixing overall but particularly on the part of the group that did not dominate the state. That is, frequent inter-religious group mixing and the absence of negative attitudes on the part of this group towards others may have signalled that it was not a viable group to be mobilised for political gain. Instead, in this more peaceful district, ethnic identity was the more salient form of political capital, but demographically the district is ethnically fragmented. Inter-ethnic rather than religious mixing was less frequent in this district, but it was worst among the dominant political group along religious and ethnic lines. Yet, the negative attitudes and stronger in-group (rather than out-group) bonds between members of the dominant political group did not translate into violent con?ict because there were minimal challenges to their power during the transition. Finally, the evidence suggests that the associational membership of mixedethnic or religious organisations is less likely to explain violence prevention, given that membership of such organisations was greater in the con?ict-affected district. The evidence overall suggests that demographic divides are not always an indicator of political divides and the propensity for con?ict, but rather this is related to the politics of exclusion. Furthermore, it indicates that to some extent increased crossgroup contact can act as an indirect con?ict intervention mechanism.

Foreign Policy, Islam and Democracy in Indonesia
Authors: Anwar Dewi Fortuna
Published: November 2019

The relations between Islam and Democracy in Indonesia and their implications forthe countrys foreign policy have attracted considerable attention in recent years. Inthe early years of his frst presidential term, Susilo Bambang Yudhono introduced the concept of Indonesias international identity, that is, as a country in which Islam, democracy and modernity go hand in hand. In the post-9/ international context, in which perceptions of Islam are largely negative, Indonesias special attributes as the largest Muslim-majority country and the worlds third largest democracy have special values. The international community, especially Western countries, has looked to Indonesia to provide an alternative face of Islam in the midst of rising religious extremism and terrorism. Indonesia, however, still faces many challenges in realising its aspirations to be a bridge between the Islamic world and the West, and as an alternative model within the Islamic world. Frequent acts of religious intolerance have marred Indonesias claim as a moderate Islamic force while Indonesia has generally been perceived to lie in the periphery of the Islamic world.

Exploring the European Union Renewable Energy Directive and its Implications for Indonesias Palm Oil Industry
Authors: Widyatmoko Bondan
Published: November 2019

The Renewable Energy Directive (RED) is a vehicle for environmental NGOs concerned about biodiversity destruction in Indonesia, for European biodiesel producers to admit new competitors, and for European Union (EU) interests to build a secure and sustainable economy for their region. In other words, it is a manifestation of the di?erent interests of many agencies that share grace and favour over palm oil development in the EU. By observing the RED as the vehicle and the EU system of governance as its course, this paper records the interactions between those agencies in shaping the policy. The observations allow for agencies contributions to the images of palm oil. It depicts that biodiversity destruction is the basis for the sustainability criteria in the RED but it was not the only cause of the slowing down in the pace of the Indonesian palm oil market penetration in the region. To some extent, the RED is considered a trade barrier for Indonesian palm oil. However, the RED is an incentive to strengthen the image of the palm oil industry in a more constructive way and ensure the longevity of the industry.

Syuhada Mosque and its Community in Changing Yogyakarta, 1950s�1980s
Authors: Zara Muhammad Yuanda
Published: November 2019

One of Yogyakarta citys symbols of colonialism is the Kotabaru region, which during the colonial period was a housing complex for Dutch ofcials and a handful of Indonesian elite. The Japanese took over the area during their Occupation. Following Indonesian independence, Indonesians seized the area for the interests of the newly born Republic of Indonesia. Syuhada Mosque, the frst modern mosque in post-independence Indonesia, was then built there, representing both Islam and Indonesian nationalism, as the mosques name and location suggest. Unlike most Indonesian mosques at the time, which were established primarily as a place for worship, Syuhada brought social and political missions. The activities of its community encompassed religious practices (such as fve obligatory daily prayers and recital of Koranic verses), handling social matters (education for children, youth and women, debate on Islam and modernity, and counter-Christianization activities), as well as responding to national politics (such as the anti-Communist movement in 1960s). Its community mostly lived outside the immediate environment of the mosque, yet Syuhada managed to present itself not just as a mosque for a small community, but for a city, even for the Indonesian nation-state. Given its four decades of overarching religious and sociopolitical functions, the mosque is deliberately aimed at a new generation of Indonesian Muslims: middle class, urban, educated, and open-minded Muslims, and serves as a role model for later mosques and religious institutions.
REGIONAL SECURITY COMPLEX IN ASEAN: Neutrality and Centrality at Brink in the South China Sea Issue
Authors: Sudirman Arfin
Published: November 2019

The South China Sea conflict has been a highly sensitive issue for the last 5 years in ASEAN. China and the US have been using the South China Sea as the New Cold War Arena of power and military hegemonic competition in the South East Asia region. This has been a major challenge for ASEAN as the only regional organization in the South East Asia region that has direct in the area must take major role in managing and resolving the dispute peacefully even though ASEAN has no defense pact like NATO. This paper argues that ASEAN, at this moment, must maintain its role as a mediator and independent-negotiator in the region but at the same time apply its principle of gradually adapting with the new international system. This article also suggests that in the future, ASEAN can take a major role in the governance of the South China Sea and the South East Asia region.
THE APPLICATION OF TRANSFER KNOWLEDGE OF EXJAPAN TRAINEES FROM INDONESIA: Alternative Solution for Rural Development in South Sulawesi and East Java
Authors: Riskianingrum Devi , Gusnelly Gusnelly
Published: November 2019

International migration has changed the lives of many people and households in the villages by the value of remittance sent home by migrant workers. Japan is one of many destination countries for Indonesian migrant workers. Since 1993, Indonesian migrant workers have come to Japan on two available schemes, namely the Technical Internship Program (TIP) and the Industrial Training Program (ITP). The remittance in this study does not refer to money but more to knowledge, either in the form of ideas of social cultural values, work ethics, or business ideas obtained by trainees while working in Japan. Trainees not only receive economic but also social remittance whilst working in Japan. These trainees are expected to return with benefits to their social neighborhoods. Hence several subjects are posed in this study which identify the forms and structures of knowledge transferred from Japan to the trainees, the applicability of the knowledge received from the host country to their home country and the challenges and obstacles in managing their economic remittances.

Regional based development is an important issue to Indonesia as an archipelago country. One of the alternative to this issue is tourism development, theoretically tourism-dependent economy expectedly has positive impact to the economy. Regional development based on tourism expectedly can be more progressive if supported by tourism special economic zones. Therefore, the availability and appropriateness of the infrastructure must be examined. The aim of this research is to map tourism infrastructure condition in Indonesia, identify the obstacles of tourism infrastructure development, and analyze supporting infrastructure for inclusive and competitive tourism economic zones. The results show that there are still different definitions for tourism that affects the policy implementation. Moreover, there is still gap between infrastructure availability and needs in the tourism development, especially in tourism economic zones. Otherwise, community in the tourism economic zones surrounding areas have relatively strong social capital to support tourism. This condition should be the other supporting factors besides proper infrastructure and governance.
Trade Globalization and Its Impact on Welfare in Indonesia
Authors: Aini Yulinda Nurul , Purba Yanti Astrelina , Meilliana Ruth
Published: November 2019

Indonesia was experiencing trade globalization in the form of decreasing and uniforming tariffs and eliminating various non-tariff barriers. Trade globalization had a positive and negative impact on Indonesian's welfare. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of Trades Globalization on Indonesians Welfare. The Trade globalization was measured by three variables, namely Trade Openness, Inflation, and Exchange Rate. While Indonesians Welfare was measured by three aspects, namely education aspect using School Enrollment, health aspect using Life Expectancy, and economic aspect using the GDP Per capita. The data used was time series data from 1971-2016. This study applied mix-methods, quantitatively using Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) and qualitatively using desk study. The results indicated that Trade Openness and Exchange Rate were positive and significant indicators in measuring Trade globalization. In addition, School Enrollment and GDP Per capita were also positive and significant indicators in measuring Indonesians Welfare. In general, the test showed that Trade globalization had a negative and significant influence on Indonesians Welfare. This fact suggested the importance of controlling exchange rate stability in Indonesia because the exchange rate could affect people's ability to maintain lives through purchasing power. In addition, globalization measured through Trade Openness could be an accommodation to obtain new technology in various fields, such as in education to improve the quality of human resources, in the health sector to treat various diseases and reduce the risk of death, and in the economy, sector to increase Per capita income.
The (Trans)formation of Religious Capital in Indonesian Politics During New Order Era: A Case Study Of Nahdlatul Ulama
Authors: Damm Muhammad R
Published: November 2019

Religious capital always has crucial role in Indonesian politics. This paper aims to analyze the formation and transformation of religious capital in New Order era that has been heavily influenced by the dynamics of relationship between the state and religious groups, especially Islam, over time. As a case study, this paper will discuss Nahdlatul Ulama (NU). By analyzing the development of NU during the course of the New Order, it shows that the transformation can be divided in two phases. The first phase is the systematic weakening of Islamic movement since the late 1960s until the midst of 1980s. It is conducted by manipulation such as demonization of Islamic groups in 1960s, as well as by several policies and regulations such as simplification of political party system in 1973 and the enforcement of Pacasila as the sole principle for socio-political life in 1985. The second phase characterized by de-politicization of Islamic organizations since the midst of 1980s and at the same time, by capitalization of religious symbols and identity by individual politicians in political practices during 1990s.
Fish-Bombing Fishermen From Barang Lompo Island, South Sulawesi Province: Understanding Their Corruption, Behaviors and Arranging Policy For Destructive Fishing Reduction
Authors: Zaelany Andy Ahmad
Published: November 2019

At present, corruption in the fishing sector has become a severe threat to the effectiveness of marine resource management. However, corruption activities that occur in fishing communities are still rarely revealed to the public due to the complexity and lack of researchers who are interested in learning them. The research aims to understand the behavior of the fish-bomb fishermen in Barang Lompo Island, South Sulawesi, in order to arrange suitable policy and program choice for reducing of using fish bombs in fishing activity. This research is conducted by a qualitative approach and ethnography method (participation observation) as well in a time series since 1999. The result showed that the corruption behaviors among the Barang Lompo fishermen are caused by several factors, i.e., aggressive culture, poverty, cultural burden and cultural pride, and consumerism. Corruption, in this case, makes a fishing business more efficient, with short working time indicators, and catches a lot.

Authors: Schuster Marcelo Da Silva , Dias Valéria Da Veiga
Published: November 2019

Diante da potencialidade turística do Brasil a questão de pesquisa deste estudo é verificar quais traços de personalidade, existentes nas escalas de mensuração de personalidade turística, estão presentes na descrição de destinos turísticos brasileiros. Com isso, objetiva-se comparar o que foi estabelecido na literatura e a aplicação dos mesmos para comunicação com o consumidor de turismo no Brasil. Para isso foram estabelecidas três esferas de investigação: i) institucional; ii) comercial; e iii) social. A metodologia incluiu um levantamento a partir de bases de dados internacionais para elencar os instrumentos de mensuração existentes e os traços de personalidade utilizados. Na sequência foi realizada uma seleção de cidades a serem investigadas por meio do ranking da Trip Advisor em 2017. A análise dos dados pesquisados se deu por meio de análise de conteúdo e uso do software WebQda para organização e classificação dos dados. Os resultados apontam para a importância da personalidade de destino como uma ferramenta de divulgação/promoção dos destinos turísticos. Contudo, essa ainda é subutilizada no Brasil. Além disso, nota-se ambiguidades entre os traços encontrados e as dimensões das escalas de personalidade de destino internacionais. Apontando para a necessidade de novos estudos sobre o tema.

Published: November 2019

Shark catches have increased worldwide, threatening the survival of several species. This study describes historical trends concerning shark consumption and commercialization by artisanal fishers in northeastern Brazil. Semi-structured questionnaires were applied and respondents pointed out that sharks used to be locally regarded as low-quality fish in the past and rejected by fish consumers, with low fisher consumption frequency. However, this has changed in recent decades, as a total of 95.4% (n=62) of the questionnaire respondents reported currently consuming shark meat, while 61.5% (n=40) highlighted its high quality. In addition, most interviewees (90.8%; n=59) reported decreasing numbers of sharks caught over time, following worldwide trends, leading to decreased fisher access to shark meat. Because of this, most respondents (70.7%, n=46) now consider it more advantageous to sell the sharks they catch than to consume them. In addition, the local commercialization of these fish is currently based on immature coastal species (<1 m). Thus, economic and biological studies on local shark populations are suggested in order to preserve local fisher culture and ensure food security for artisanal fisher communities and a long-term sustainable fishery and conservation of exploited species.
Viking Games and Sámi Pastimes: Making Balls of Fomitopsis betulina
Authors: Svanberg Ingvar , Lidström Isak
Published: November 2019

Ethnomycology is the study of the bio-cultural aspects of human-fungal interactions. This article discusses the involvement of the bracket fungus Fomitopsis betulina within the material culture of traditional games. With a particular focus on the Nordic countries, the aim is to review and analyze the use of simple balls made of bracket fungi. We argue that the fungi ball can be considered the precursor of the rubber (and the gutta-percha) ball. Moreover, the replacement of fungi balls with rubber balls marks, to a certain extent, a temporal transition from traditional folk games with roots in pre-industrial society to modern sports in which balls and other equipment received a more standardized shape.
SOME FEATURES OF THE ELEMENT COMPOSITIONS OF MALUS BACCATA FROM THE NATURAL AND URBAN-IZED PLACES OF BURYATIA REGION

Published: November 2019

The article presents the results of studying the composition of Malus baccata (L.) Borkh, collected in natural and anthropogenically modified environment of the Republic of Buryatia. We have analyzed the distribution of elements in different organs of Malus baccata. The content of elements Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, K, Ca, Ti, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, Zr, Pb и Ba in soil and Malus samples was determined by the method of X-ray fluorescence (XRF). It was found that the content of oxides of the basic elements in alluvial and ferruginous soils is lower than in the soils of urbanized territories, except for MnO, TiO2 and Fe2O3 oxides, which are characteristic for this type of soil. The greatest amount of Cu, Zn, Ba and Pb has been found in the soils collected from urban streets. The main reason is the urban transport. Fruits contain more essential elements P, K, Cu and Rb compared to leaves, while the leaves contain higher concentrations of potentially toxic Al, Si, Ca, Ti, Mn, Fe, Sr, and Ba. The content of elements in all samples of Malus baccata is significantly lower than toxic or excessive concentrations established for land plants.

Published: November 2019

In order to solve the problem of complex utilization of rice straw – waste of rice production – the task was to obtain from vegetable silicon-containing raw materials samples of aluminosilicates that are promising for use as highly efficient sorbents. A series of sodium aluminosilicate samples were synthesized from alkaline hydrolysates of rice straw of various strains of Far Eastern breeding, the effect of synthesis conditions on the properties of the final product was investigated. The chemical and phase composition of the samples were determined, the particle morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy, the specific surface area was measured, the IR spectra were recorded, the thermal properties were studied, the limits of thermal stability were determined, and the products of thermal transformations were identified. The acid-base properties of the surface were investigated by the pH-metry method and the Hammett indicator method, and the distribution of active centers was determined. The dependence of the sorption capacity of the obtained aluminosilicates on rice varieties and the conditions of the extraction of silicon from the straw (the duration of alkaline hydrolysis) was established on model aqueous solutions of methylene blue. The results expand the possibilities of comprehensive utilization of agricultural wastes with obtaining valuable products and deepen knowledge about the processing biogenic silicon-containing raw materials and the sorption mechanisms of organic pollutants on aluminosilicate materials.

Comparative studies of the physicochemical properties and structures of cotton cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, and nanocellulose were carried out using IR, NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis in order to identify the dependence "particle size - structure - properties". It was revealed that in the series “cotton cellulose – microcrystalline cellulose – nanocellulose” the degree of polymerization decreases (1200, 230, 110 respectively), the degree of crystallinity increases (66%, 72%, 83% respectively). The IR spectra of microcrystalline cellulose and nanocellulose are characterized by sharp peaks (in the range 1000–1500 cm–1) compared with cotton cellulose. The amount of bound water in gels of microcrystalline cellulose and nanocellulose increases with decreasing particle size, the degree of stability of colloidal systems increases with the transition from microcrystalline cellulose to nanocellulose. Nanocellulose and microcrystalline cellulose have relatively smaller mass loss and relatively large temperature ranges of intensive decomposition and their thermal stability is higher than cotton cellulose. It was found that the periodate oxidation rate of nanocellulose is higher than that of microcrystalline cellulose and cotton cellulose. It was established that microcrystalline cellulose is quantitatively susceptible to periodate oxidation in 7–8 hours, and nanocellulose in 0.5–1 hour.

The chemical composition of Prangos odontalgica (Pall.) Herrnst. et. Heyn essential oil, which grows wild in the Astrakhan region, has not been practically studied, unlike other species of the genus Prangos, growing in Iran, Turkey and Uzbekistan. To obtain the essential oil, all parts of the plant (roots, stems, flowers, leaves, fruits) are used, as well as various methods of isolation (hydrodistillation, supercritical fluid extraction, solid-phase microextraction, and others). Essential oil from the fruit of Prangos odontalgica we obtained by the method of hydrodistillation. The duration of the hydrodistillation process, established experimentally on the basis of a study of the dynamics of change in the yield of essential oil over time, was 3 hours. The yield of essential oil in mass% by volume in terms of absolutely dry raw materials according to the results of a threefold determination is 0.07 ± 0.01%. The method of gas-liquid chromatography carried out a quantitative analysis of the main components of the essential oil Prangos odontalgica. The quantitative content of the components of the essential oil was calculated by the areas of gas chromatographic peaks without the use of correction factors. Qualitative analysis was performed by comparing linear retention indices. In the Prangos odontalgica essential oil, 38 substances were identified (88.4%). It contains sesquiterpenes (31.48%), terpenoids (19.2%), hydrocarbons (15.39%), carboxylic acids and their esters (10.86%), alcohols, phenols (8.84%). Among sesquiterpenes, the predominant components are γ-elemen (9.84%), bisabolol (9.41%), and among terpenoids – trans-nerolidol (3.90%) and linalyl isobutyrate (3.41%).

Published: November 2019

The question of the features of operation of submersible vortex flowmeters of water and water suspensions of low concentrations in pulp and paper production, which are installed in process pipelines with local hydraulic resistance, is considered.

It is shown that with an insufficient straight section after local resistance, an additional error appears, which appears due to the influence of local resistance (transition or retraction) on the symmetry of the velocity diagram in front of the device. This error arises due to a change in the Strouhal number (Sh) and is related to the measurement method. The Strouhal number begins to depend on both the distance to the local resistance and the fluid flow rate.

Identify this relationship and is dedicated to this work. Recommendations on the length of straight pipeline sections in front of the flow meter have been developed, which can be significantly reduced by limiting the range of operating flow rates.

The studies were carried out by the method of numerical simulation of hydrodynamic processes with subsequent processing of the results by the method of experiment planning.

The dependence of the number Sh on the length of the relative diameter of the pipeline L/ for hydrodynamic resistance in the form of a transition is presented. This error shows that the measurement error is within 2% already with a straight section in front of the flowmeter equal to 5–7 diameters.

The response surface for pipe bends (rotations) is considered at 90º from which it follows that while maintaining the length of the straight section within 5–7 pipe diameters, it is necessary to narrow the measurement range of the instruments 2.5 times.
LA MILITANCIA DE ABOGADOS EN DEFENSA DE LOS DERECHOS HUMANOS A PARTIR DE LA ÚLTIMA DICTADURA MILITAR EN ROSARIO.
Authors: SCOCCO MARIANELA
Published: November 2019

El eje de este artículo es el análisis de la militancia de abogados en defensa de los derechos humanos en la última dictadura militar (1976-1983) y en los primeros años de democracia. Sin embargo, el fundamento será colocado en las transformaciones en el perfil de los abogados que se dedicaron a esta tarea a través de un recorrido por el proceso que va de los primeros abogados que se abocaron a la defensa de los detenidos por razones políticas y/o gremiales desde mediados de la década de 1930, principalmente en la segunda mitad del siglo XX, hasta los años 1970 con la instauración de la última dictadura. El objetivo es estudiar a estos actores y los espacios asociativos de los que formaron parte, haciendo hincapié en la circulación de ellos en más de una organización, es decir, en su doble o múltiple pertenencia militante. Nos centraremos en el caso de la ciudad de Rosario, tomando como ejemplo a dos abogadas que se abocaron a la defensa de los derechos humanos con su participación en distintos organismos de la ciudad.

In Pursuit of the Determinants of Users’ Views on and Usage Practices Associated with the use of Virtual Systems in an Emerging Economy
Authors: Talukder Majharul
Published: November 2019

While there has been extensive research on the adoption of an innovation in general, research on adoption of a specific innovation such as virtual systems in an emerging economy is relatively scarce. This research addresses this lacuna in the extant literature by empirically investigating the potential drivers impacting on the practice of virtual systems at the individual level in an emerging economy, Bangladesh. The data for the study comprises responses obtained through a cross-sectional survey of individuals using a structured instrument. Data were analyzed using correlation and multiple regression analysis. Findings suggest that a personal initiative is one of the strongest predictors of virtual device adoption, followed by self-fulfillment with innovation and peer pressure. Surprisingly benefits and social pressure did not show any significant relationship with usage. The implications of these findings are highlighted in the paper along with the limits and future potential of research in this area.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees calls the ongoing Syrian Civil War “the biggest humanitarian emergency of our era.” Since 2011, over 5.4 million individuals have fled across borders throughout the region and further abroad into Europe. Western media have documented Syrian border crossings and stories through riveting journalism, interviews, photography, and maps. While the written and photographic reporting of Syrian stories use captivating imagery and testimonials to convey the traumatic experiences of individuals, these experiences are limited in the accompanying cartographic coverage. Instead, Western media’s cartographic practices commonly aggregate refugees into flow lines, proportional symbols, and reference points, and frequently simplify border experiences into homogeneous, black line symbols. Flow lines, homogeneous border symbols, and other mapping conventions silence the experiences of individual Syrians and negate emotions, perils, and geopolitical issues linked to border crossings. I ask the following research questions: How can the cartographic portrayal of Syrian peoples’ border experiences be improved to more fully represent their experiences? Furthermore, how can a feminist perspective inform an alternative mapping of borders and border experiences? Through a feminist lens, I have developed an alternative mapping technique that emphasizes borders as a theoretical and conceptual advancement in cartographic design and border symbolization. By rendering Syrian border stories and experiences visible with cartography, my work nudges critical and feminist cartographies forward and gives Syrians a geographic voice unavailable to them through conventional cartographies.
Can There Be Post-Persons and What Can We Learn From Considering Their Possibility?
Authors: Neiders Ivars
Published: November 2019

Many prominent bioethicists have recently raised the question of the possibility of moral status enhancement. In this paper I discuss the arguments advanced by Nicholas Agar for the possible existence of the postpersons. I argue that in spite of the many limitations and shortcomings of Agar’s account, there are no conclusive reasons to rule out the possibility of moral status enhancement. However, if post-persons are as they are described by Agar, the fact of their possibility is less interesting and ethically relevant than it might seem. Most importantly, the account of post-persons given by Agar is rather an outcome of some implausible assumptions. I propose that Agar conflates the ethical with the scientific and dismisses the importance of phenomenology in framing our ethical outlook. Also, he seems to follow the assumption made by many utilitarian ethicists that such features as sentience and cognitive capacities have some universal relevance. This accounts for the delusion that we can view our moral attitudes from the point of view of the Universe.
Art After Democracy, Art Before Democracy
Authors: Mizerkiewicz Tomasz
Published: November 2019

The paper describes today’s new situation of art facing antidemocratic processes. The powerful metaphor of Parthenon of books is used, which once was the name of an installation by Marta Minujín presented just after the fall of Argentinian brutal regime in the early eighties and reinstalled again few years ago. The author points that popular “posts” of humanities (postmodernism, postsecularism etc.) need to be replaced by the philosophy of art being after some definite change. The new temporal and public condition of art being after is the result of its dramatic contemporary and future challenges.
Pjesničke ulizice i vlast (o udvorništvu Paveliću, Titu i Tuđmanu)
Authors: Sorel Sanjin
Published: November 2019

In the analysis of Croatian political poetry, although the article speaks only about texts on the subject of Ante Pavelić, Josip Broz - Tito and Franjo Tuđman, I also refer to all those who have written or are still writing sycophant texts, somewhere on the margins of good taste and obsequious poems. Works about the mentioned historical figures are just a name, a sign of the ideology represented by: fascism, socialism, nationalism (spiritual renewal). The analysis comprises the following topics: apotheosis, mythological narratives, government and social authority, revisionism. The name-induced conflict on the social scene is purely symbolic and future-oriented, but also deals with values that will determine the re/presentation of the Republic of Croatia.
Between Aesthetics and Politics: Socially Engaged Art on the Internet
Authors: Winiecka Elżbieta
Published: November 2019

The author discusses the changes in the model of democracy that have occurred since the Internet began. The hierarchical model of representative democracy is replaced on the Web by participatory democracy. On the example of Siksa and Bread Resolution (Rozdzielczość Chleba), the author shows up the transformations of the model of literary communication on the Internet. She also indicates ethic role engaged art takes in the contemporary society. Artists that produce socially engaged art do it in the name of those who do not exist in public space, those whose voice is not heard and who cannot defend themselves. Nevertheless, the author comes to the conclusion that the real democratic revolution can only take place outside the Web.
Яворов post mortem
Authors: Велкова-Гайдаржиева Антония
Published: November 2019

Yavorov Year of Mourning by Mikhail Nedelchev is a ritual book dedicated to the most scorching deadly love affair in the history of the Bulgarian intelligentsia. This text is not a traditional literary-historical one, but an intimate reconstruction of the intolerable tragedy of the pre-death Yavorov year. It is argued that the poet’s being is not in the world, it is a being in and with death. The superconsciousness of death is an intimate experience for Yavorov, an act of insight.
Przełom czy kontynuacja? Słowacka myśl polityczna po roku 1867
Authors: Goszczyńska Joanna
Published: November 2019

The article focuses on two texts (Jozef Podhradský, The secret history of Pan-Slavism and Michal Miloslav Hodža Vieroslavín), that are located on the periphery of Slovak political thought, but they are a very significant testimony to the intersection of emancipation ideas in the period of dualistic monarchy. These important texts bring a proposal of various solutions to the arrangement of Slovak-Hungarian relations in the new situation after 1867. Unfortunately, one of them was not published at all (written by Hodža in 1867–1870), while the second one, published in Novi Sad in 1868, remained almost unnoticed.They show how close the idea of messianism was to Slovak thinkers at that time. (This particularly applies to M.M. Hodža). Under her influence, they present their visions of Europe and the monarchy. They also show the Slovaks as a chosen nation that will play a decisive role in the revive common Europe.
„Wszystkie twoje, nasze, wasze dzienne sprawy […] to są sprawy polityczne”. O zaangażowaniu we współczesnej poezji kobiet na przykładzie wierszy pogrudniowych
Authors: Grądziel-Wójcik Joanna
Published: November 2019

An important, though underestimated theme in Polish poetry written by women is the thread of poetry engaged in social and political matters, thematizing the connection between literature and civic life. Poetesses are often accused of not rooting their works in history and of unwillingness to bring up current topics. Yet the problem is not the lack of interest in history and its political and social dimension, but the distinct way of its conceptualization, the relationship between the individual – though not always revealing its sex – subjective “I” in relation to history and challenges of its times. That is manifested, among others, in poems by Wisława Szymborska, Krystyna Miłobędzka, Bogusława Latawiec and Urszula Kozioł, which, to a different degree, exhibit the strategies of personalization, autobiographication, somatization and trivialization, characteristic of women’s poetry regarding the martial law period in Poland.

A new type of silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) was prepared with simple and fast methods and low-toxic compounds. With the addition of different concentrations of AgNPs, the effects of AgNPs on the fluorescence properties of three different kinds of fluoroquinolones (enrofloxacin ENR, lomefloxacin LMF and norfloxacin NOR) in water solutions were studied, respectively. The experimental results demonstrated that the fluorescence intensity for each of the fluoroquinolones (FQ)was firstly enhanced and then quenched with the increased concentration of AgNPs in water solutions. The possible mechanisms about the AgNPs on the fluorescence behaviors of each FQ were also investigated, respectively. In addition, new silver enhanced nanoparticles materials fluorescence methods were established for the separate determination of ENR, LMF and NOR in water solutions. As compared with the identical control fluorimetric methods with no addition of AgNPs, the new enhanced fluorimetic methods were also investigated, respectively. The experimental results indicated that the new enhanced methods could detect lower concentrations of ENR, LMF and NOR in water solutions. Moreover, the newly enhanced fluorimetric methods were validated and successfully applied for the quantitative assay of ENR, LMF and NOR in different kinds of medicinal preparations, respectively.

Optical frequency comb (OFC) based on the whispering-gallery-mode microresonator has various potential applications in fundamental and applied areas. Once the solid microresonator is fabricated, its structure parameters are generally unchanged. Therefore, realizing the tunability of the microresonator OFC is an important precondition for many applications. In this work, we proposed and demonstrated the tunable Kerr and Raman-Kerr frequency combs using the ultrahigh-quality-factor (Q) functionalized silica microsphere resonators, which are coated with iron oxide nanoparticles on their end surfaces. The functionalized microsphere resonator possesses Q factors over 108 and large all-optical tunability due to the excellent photothermal performance of the iron oxide nanoparticles. We realized a Kerr frequency comb with an ultralow threshold of 0.42 mW and a comb line tuning range of 0.8 nm by feeding the control light into the hybrid microsphere resonator through its fiber stem. Furthermore, in order to broaden the comb span, we realized a Raman-Kerr frequency comb with a span of about 164 nm. Meanwhile, we also obtained a comb line tuning range of 2.67 nm for the Raman-Kerr frequency comb. This work could find potential applications in wavelength-division multiplexed coherent communications and optical frequency synthesis.
