This study aims to analyze the optimal design of whistleblowing programs, focusing on the effects of incentives and the dynamics of whistleblower engagement. Through a qualitative literature review, the research explores the impact of financial incentives on the effectiveness of whistleblowing programs and how factors such as organizational culture and management support influence whistleblowers' decisions. The findings show that while financial incentives are effective in encouraging reporting, excessive incentives can reduce the quality of the information provided. On the other hand, factors such as anonymity and protections for whistleblowers significantly increase their engagement. This study highlights the importance of a holistic approach that combines financial and non-financial incentives with strong protections for whistleblowers to ensure program effectiveness. Furthermore, policy implications suggest the need for continuous evaluation of whistleblowing programs to ensure they remain relevant and effective in detecting violations across different sectors. Although this study provides valuable insights, several limitations, including its focus on literature sourced from the United States and the absence of empirical data, affect the generalization of the findings. Therefore, further research is necessary to test these findings in various organizational contexts and environments.

Teoría de la actividad histórico-cultural y del aprendizaje expansivo para la investigación de la educación y la innovación en la sociedad del conocimiento
Authors: Valenzuela Espinoza Leandro
Published: November 2024

La teoría de la actividad histórico-cultural es una propuesta conceptual interdisciplinaria para la psicología y las ciencias sociales que pone el acento en la comprensión de la conducta social humana en los más diversos ámbitos de la cultura y la vida social. A su vez, la teoría del aprendizaje expansivo revela las conexiones profundas entre el aprendizaje colectivo, la interacción y las prácticas sociales. Para ambas teorías, los sistemas de actividad están en el centro de las transformaciones y los procesos sociales, cruzados por sendas contradicciones, que moldean el carácter de la sociedad del conocimiento y determinan cómo se dan en esta la educación, el aprendizaje y la innovación. El argumento central de este trabajo es que el marco conceptual de ambas teorías debe extender el pensamiento dialéctico a la configuración sociedad/naturaleza, de tal modo de abordar de mejor manera los actuales desafíos de la educación y del aprendizaje.

Liderazgo Natural de los Actores Educativos en la Mediación de Conflictos para la Convivencia Escolar
Authors: Pumarejo Caballero Aris Matilde
Published: November 2024

La calidad de las interacciones sociales en las instituciones educativas condujo al objetivo de explicar la mediación como mecanismo de actuación del liderazgo natural para la convivencia escolar en instituciones del núcleo educativo N°6 del municipio Valledupar, Cesar-Colombia. Una investigación interpretativa, posibilitó el acercamiento a docentes, directivos y estudiantes, a través de entrevistas a profundidad para conocer desde las experiencias vividas en relación a convivencia escolar y liderazgo natural. El análisis interpretativo determinó la relevancia de la mediación como proceso que apoya la práctica de la convivencia escolar positiva, vista como construcción compartida, dinámica, participativa, reflexiva y propositiva que aporta calidad al desarrollo integral de una comunidad educativa. Se concluye que la mediación, como proceso, puede ser abordada desde el liderazgo natural, sea de manera individual o compartida, en perfiles personales anclados axiológicamente a respeto, empatía y tolerancia; metodológicamente en el diálogo reflexivo y la escucha activa como estrategias prevalentes y, ontológicamente, en el reconocimiento de la diversidad del otro como semejante. La convivencia escolar se sirve de la mediación del liderazgo natural para la solución de conflictos a través de compromisos compartidos que dan sentido a un trabajo participativo y colaborativo para el buen vivir en los espacios escolares.

Authors: Darsayev silva de carvalho Pedro
Published: November 2024

Este artigo aborda como a afetividade nas relações professor-aluno pode influenciar na aprendizagem, seja no âmbito disciplinar, onde a qualidade da relação do professor com o estudante interfere na obediência ao regimento escolar, no âmbito avaliativo, mostrando como os alunos tendem a se interessar mais por uma disciplina cujo professor é alguém querido por eles e, até mesmo, influenciando em fatores psicológicos como a auto estima e sentimento de acolhimento dos estudantes. Também é abordada a questão da escola ser um ambiente de desenvolvimento social e cultural, mostrando que tais aspectos não devem ser restritos aos relacionamentos entre os alunos em si, visto que os professores são figuras de autoridade e admiração para os alunos e que saber cultivar de forma saudável o relacionamento com os alunos pode mostrar benefícios além do desenvolvimento acadêmicos de jovens e adolescentes.

The research uses a survey method with questionnaires assessing self-efficacy, learning motivation, and problem-solving skills among PPKn students. The collected data will be analyzed to identify relationships between the variables. This study aims to provide insights for developing learning strategies that support students' problem-solving skills, preparing them to become critical and active citizens.
Motives of the Soldiers of Kaunas Self-Defence Battalions for Participation in the Killing of Jews and Other Groups of People during the Nazi Occupation (1941–1944)
Authors: Rukšėnas Alfredas
Published: November 2024

The article explores the motives of Lithuanians, who served in Kaunas National Labour Defence 1st and 2nd Auxiliary Police Service Battalions, for killing Jews and other groups of people during the period of the Nazi occupation (1941−1944). The topic is examined on the basis of archival data, historiography, and the knowledge of social psychology. The article distinguishes six inner factors that encouraged the troops who served in Kaunas National Labour Defence Battalions to participate in the massacre campaigns. They are: duty, fear, negative images, sadism, inebriation, and the need for property. The main factor, however, that urged the troops to participate in the massacre was the sense of duty. This was the main factor, because soldiers who joined the battalion had undertaken to obey orders. The operations of the extermination of Jews and other groups of people were carried out pursuant to the orders issued to them, i.e. first there was an appeal to the sense of duty and only then to other internal factors. There were five internal factors considered to be internal stimuli that encouraged the fulfilment of duty. The feeling of duty and the motive of fear were characteristic to all soldiers involved in the campaigns of killing people. Negative images, sadism, inebriation, and the need for property were characteristic of only some soldiers of the battalions. The article also discusses the cases in which soldiers of Kaunas Self-Defence Units carried out actions directed against Jews outside the battalion or prior to joining the battalion. Such acts were carried out due to negative images, which evoked feelings of hatred and revenge. These actions are special because when carrying out of these actions, soldiers were not bound by a sense of duty, i. e. the sense of duty did not determine their actions. In this case, therefore, negative images should be considered the key factor that encouraged the act of killing.
Social Portrait of the Participants in the Holocaust
Authors: Zagreckas Rimantas
Published: November 2024

The events of the Holocaust in Lithuania have already been explored quite extensively and in some detail. It is clear that thousands of Lithuanians contributed to this tragedy. In addition to other very important questions, the question arises as to social characteristics of these people: these issues have not yet been explored. In this respect, the Lithuanian Special Archives (LSA) can provide a lot of information which is available in the criminal case fund of the USSR repressive institutions (LSA, f. K-1, ap. 58) held at the LSA. Using both historical and sociological methods, the files of 205 people sentenced for participation in the 1941 June Uprising in the counties of Biržai, Kėdainiai, Panevėžys, Rokiškis, and Utena (and who later contributed to the Holocaust) were examined in the documents of the said fund.
It has been identified that the social status of those sentenced in 1941 essentially complies with the social structure typical of Lithuanian society and recorded in the Statistical Yearbook of Lithuania in 1938: the majority (up to 78% in Utena County and less elsewhere) of the convicts were farmers (the majority of these were small- and medium-sized farmers); craftsmen and blue-collar workers accounted for a far smaller number, and even fewer were white collar workers and members of the intelligentsia. The majority of people convicted in 1941 were men aged 20–40 years with little education (primary four-year education or less). A large proportion of them were married (they mostly got married at the age of 30–35 years). In the times of independent Lithuania, only a few of them (0–11% depending on the county) were involved in any political party or public organisation, 14–41% of them were members of the paramilitary Riflemen’s Union at some point.
In Search of a Sky to Protect the Earth: Houellebecq’s Political Aesthetics Considering Sérotonine
Authors: Miller Noëlle
Published: November 2024

As an agronomic engineer, it is one of Michel Houellebecq’s personal endeavors to protect the environment and foster local and sustainable agriculture. It is therefore no surprise that he stresses the personal and economic disasters of industrial production in nearly all of his novels. Through the example of Serotonin (2019), this article will show how Houellebecq proceeds aesthetically through the staging of his characters to defend the cause of the farmers. On the one hand, there is the voice of Aymeric d’Harcourt-Olonde, depicted as a lovely, loyal, and moral friend and a coura-geous hero with deep historic roots and agricultural ideals, and Camille, Florent’s biggest love, shocked by animal husbandry. Both are complementary and embody a premodern state of civilization: medieval times and the 19th century. On the other hand, there is the narrator, Florent, who is uprooted, works for the state economy, and embodies industrial production based on profit. There are two parallel plots by which Houellebecq tries to explain our contem-porary decadence: the betrayal of the religion (Camille) and the attempt to get her back during the whole novel, and the decline of the medieval culture as our common roots (Aymeric), which ends in suicide. Through these characters, who are de facto incarnations, the whole parable of serotonin aims at depicting the relationship between the state and religion through time and its economic and human fallouts. By retracing the sacrifice and tragic fate of the medieval stage of civilization, its pre-industrial mode of production, and Christian culture, Houellebecq aims to arouse awareness among his readers of the necessity of transcendence, which, according to him, can only lead to a fair economic production. Until the very end, Houellebecq aimed at evangelizing the state economy to make it a more moral one (see also Anéantir, 2022) through his parables, which eventually could change society from within. The article will show how agricultural production remains a central aspect of Houellebecq’s whole poetics.
Writing in a Time of Epidemic
Authors:   The Open University of Israel, Mendelson - Maoz Adia
Published: November 2024

Prima facie, so far it has been and still is impossible to offer a proper study of the literary manifestation of covid19 – the epidemic is not quite over yet; one doesn't have yet an historical perspective of it; writing, and moreover publishing, require time. However, there are early sprouts of writing on covid19. We shall focus on Dana Freibach-Heifetz's book, In the Desert of Things ("Numbers, Deuteronomy"), which was written in Hebrew during the first two months of the epidemic (2-3/2020). The book is composed of 113 fragments in various genres, which spread a fan of voices, sights and feelings of life under the epidemic – from everyday details (e.g. the engagement with food) to more cultural and philosophical layers (like concepts of inside and outside), combining realism with a world of dreams and fantasy. These micro-stories create a collage of images that captures the new reality. The book was published in two versions: one is only textual, and the other incudes 36 color photographs by the artist Yoram Kupermintz, that create a rich dialogue with the texts. The paper examines the relation between the stylistic charac-terizations of this book – the form of fragments, various genres, and the combination of the texts with visual images – and its nature as a book which was written right in the eye of the Covid's storm. Furthermore, it exposes the thematic means that literary writing in a time of epidemic can use, in order to confront the trauma of such an extreme experience: myths; fresh glance at daily life, humor and fantasy; alongside a critical examination of the ars-poetics of such a writing. This paper is a rare collaboration of the author, who is also a philosopher, and a literary researcher. Together, they aim to bring new perspectives of literature under Covid 19 in particular, and life in a time of epidemic in general, and the unique attributes it brings.
Rewriting the past in O Vendedor de Passados (2004) and Teoria Geral do Esquecimento (2012)
Authors:   University of Lisbon, De Sousa Miriam
Published: November 2024

The novels Teoria Geral do Esquecimento (2012) and O Ven-dedor de Passados (2004) by José Eduardo Agualusa feature charac-ters who, on opposite sides of history (a colonist and a colonized), reconstruct and reposition their identities in the tumultuous social and political context after the independence and the end of the civil war in Angola, between the 1970s and the beginning of the 21st century. The problematic relationship of the characters with their memories is structured from, and around, concrete places such as Ventura's house and Ludovica's apartment in the “Invejados” (the envied) building, which becomes the ultimate location vis-à-vis the post-colonial reality. Life within these places is regulated and circumscribed by political and social phenomena linked to colo-nialism’s violence and its repercussions. Ludovica’s and Ventura's efforts to isolate and barricade themselves from the outside world, generates a tension between the space they inhabit and the world that surrounds them. Throughout the action, the limits of these houses are disso-lved and invaded by the radical transformations that from the outside interfere with the inside, reorganizing and intervening in the characters' awareness of their identities and memories, forcing the recognition of their biographies and therefore a historical repositioning. This process takes place through the infiltration and contamination between colonial history, the civil war that follo-wed, and the characters' biographies.My reading of these two no-vels focuses on how the tension between colonial reminiscences and the new postcolonial narratives are materialized in the biographies of the protagonists. From the reclusion of their houses the protagonists rewrite the past in their walls, through their interaction with the visitors, the intruders, their neighbors, the books, the sounds of the radio that infiltrate the structures of the houses and transform their interior landscape and the events that they can watch through their windows.
Exploration of Womanhood and the Assertion of Self: A Comparative Study of Meghna Pant's One and a Half Wife and Bapsi Sidhwa's The Pakistani Bride
Authors:   Magadh University, Kumar Neeraj
Published: November 2024

Feminism emerged as a worldwide movement to secure women's rights on the one hand and love, respect, sympathy and understanding from males on the other. It focused on women's struggle for recognition and survival and made them realise that the time has come when they should stop suffering silently in helplessness. The images of women in South Asian novels have also undergone a change in the last three decades. Earlier women were conceived as a symbol of self sacrifice and suffering. In due course of time women writers affected by Western Feminism have exp-lored the alternative ideal of self assertion. The feminist writers have emphasised a new perspective of women. They have rebelled against stern patriarchy and male chauvinism. Meghna Pant's One and a Half Wife reveals the struggle and circumstances faced by a woman, Amara Malhotra, entangled in the Indian orthodox culture. Here she is caught in a tug-of-war between old beliefs and new ones, between parents who favour obedience and new friends who encourage independent thought. Bapsi Sidhwa's novel The Pakistani Bride poignantly describes the circumspect world of women in a world dominated by men where women are not individuals but objects to be possessed, nothing more than a piece of land and some-times a beast that can be traded with. Zaitoon not only defies her destiny but also challenges it by running away from the clutches of her tyrant husband. Women are like commodities in the tribal society to be bartered and traded. Once married they become part of the property of their husbands, which the latter must protect. Bapsi Sidhwa reinforces this macabre image of woman graphically in various sections of the novel. Both the writers have opined that women have occupied a subaltern position that is oppressed both by traditional notion of patriarchy and by colonialism. But their ways of treating the theme of womanhood are quite different – Meghna Pant on the one hand portrays the character of Amara in new light, showing her as a blend of traditional and modern wife, whereas Bapsi Sidhwa in her novel has delineated the character of Zaitoon as a subdued, submissive and obedient wife who shows her courage at the end. The present paper intends to make a comparative study of both the novels.

Etika dan Integritas Pilar Utama Pencegahan Korupsi di Lingkungan Kampus
Authors: Jesica Angel
Published: November 2024

Ethics and integrity play a crucial role in creating an academic environment free from corrupt practices. As a center of learning, the campus should serve as a model for its students in upholding high moral and ethical standards. This article aims to highlight the importance of ethics and integrity as fundamental pillars in efforts to prevent corruption within the academic setting, such as on campus. Through a qualitative approach, data were collected from interviews with two campus workers—a canteen staff member and a parking attendant—who frequently interact indirectly with students and staff. These interviews explore their perspectives on the importance of being honest, responsible, and disciplined in their daily work. The findings show that even though they are not involved in academic activities, both workers contribute significantly to fostering an anti-corruption culture on campus. The canteen staff emphasized the importance of transparency in setting food prices to maintain students' trust, while the parking attendant stressed the need for discipline and order in managing the parking system to prevent irregularities. This article also examines how simple ethical behaviors, such as honesty in transactions and adherence to rules, can have a substantial impact on creating an integrity-driven campus environment. Therefore, the implementation of ethics and integrity is not solely the responsibility of academics but also of every element of the campus community without exception. In conclusion, strengthening the culture of ethics and integrity across all aspects of campus life is an essential part of a sustainable strategy to prevent corruption.

Jurisprudencia sobre la prueba personal

Published: November 2024

Numerosos son los pronunciamientos de la Sala de lo Penal del Tribunal Supremo que, dentro de los márgenes del recurso de casación, se pronuncian sobre determinados aspectos relacionados con la prueba personal. En este marco, resulta interesante reexaminar algunas sentencias que se centran en la declaración o, en su caso, en el silencio del acusado, por su afectación a un derecho tan nuclear como lo es el derecho a no autoincriminarse; también en algunas sentencias que inciden en las exigencias de motivación sobre la valoración de la prueba testifical, que debe ir más allá del mero voluntarismo, o en la necesidad de desterrar la consideración de que solo la pericial judicial tiene el patrimonio de la veracidad o credibilidad.

The aim. To assess the risk of fibrotic liver changes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and NAFLD using a noninvasive marker, the FIB-4 index. Material and methods. 161 patients with type 2 diabetes with signs of NAFLD were included. The FIB-4 index was calculated for all patients. A comparative assessment of clinical and laboratory data was carried out in the following groups: group 1 - patients with FIB-4<1.3 – 34.8% (n=56), group 2 – patients with FIB-4>1.3 – 65.2% (n=105). Statistical data processing was carried out using Microsoft Excel 2016 and Jamovi software packages (Version 1.0.1). Results. Median age of patients in the general group was 59 [49.0; 67.0] years; BMI 31.6 [27.6; 35.7] kg/m2; HbA1c 9.0 [7.70; 10.9] %. The FIB-4 index >1.3 was detected in 65.2% (n=105) of patients; the FIB-4 level ≥2.67 (corresponding to fibrosis) – in 16.8% (n=27). When compared in groups 1 and 2: 51±15.0 years vs. 61 ±10.8 (p<0.001); ALT level – 42.3±28.7 U/L vs. 50.2±64.5 (p<0.001); AST level – 24.1 ±19.4 vs. 42.5±67.3 (p<0.001) U/L. Age ≥60 years increased the probability of a FIB-4 value > 1.3 by 4 times (OR 4,099, 95% CI: 1.9–8.84)), an increase in transaminase levels increased the risk of a FIB-4 value>1.3 by more than 2 times (OR 2.3, 95% CI: 1.02–5.32). Conclusions. Patients with type 2 diabetes, according to the values of the noninvasive calculation method, have a high risk of developing fibrous changes in the liver, and therefore need more active screening of hepatic dysfunction and timely correction of the main risk factors for its development.

The modern management strategy for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is based on the general management of risk factors, taking into account a personalized approach to each patient. Early combined hypoglycemic therapy is a priority in achieving long-term glycemic control. The leading place in all current recommendations for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus is occupied by drugs of the DPP- 4 inhibitor class. The combination of DPP-4 inhibitors with metformin can help preserve insulin-producing function and improve glycemic control, and, accordingly, slow the progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its complications. The drug gozogliptin (Saterex®) is the first original gliptin, the full production cycle of which in Russia. Gozogliptin can be recommended for patients with the onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus both in combination with metformin and in monotherapy.

Published: November 2024

This study aims to explore the role of sukuk as an alternative form of sharia financing in promoting economic growth in Indonesia. The study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing a literature review and relevant data from credible sources, such as the recapitulation of the sharia stock index presented by the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Findings indicate that the role of sharia bonds, specifically sukuk, has experienced substantial growth in Indonesia between 2000 and 2024. Sukuk plays a critical role in enhancing the national economy and improving public welfare. The market has demonstrated a high level of responsiveness to sukuk issuance, with almost all issued sukuk being fully absorbed, often with demand exceeding supply. To harness the potential of sukuk for broader economic benefits, it is crucial to undertake strategic steps, including public awareness campaigns to educate the wider community about the benefits and opportunities provided by sukuk as a sharia-compliant investment instrument. Increasing public understanding of sukuk will further support sustainable economic development and financial inclusion in Indonesia.
The Effect of Financial Ratio on Profit Growth in Infrastructure Sector Companies Listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange
Authors: Rifa Alfiandi  , Ni Luh Supadmi
Published: November 2024

Profit growth is the rate of increase in profit obtained by a company. Profit growth is an important factor in assessing a company's financial performance. This study aims to examine the effect of financial ratios on profit growth in infrastructure sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2019-2022. The research sample used was 20 companies with 80 observation samples. The financial ratios used are liquidity, solvency, profitability, and activity ratios. These financial ratios are proxied by the Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Return on Assets (ROA), and Total Asset Turnover (TAT), respectively. Testing was carried out using multiple linear regression analysis. Based on the results of the hypothesis test, it is known that the profitability ratio proxied by Return on Assets (ROA) has a positive effect on profit growth and the activity ratio proxied by Total Asset Turnover (TAT) has a negative effect on profit growth. Other results, namely the liquidity ratio proxied by the Current Ratio (CR) and the solvency ratio proxied by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) have no effect on profit growth. These results mean that the profitability ratio and activity ratio can be determinants of profit growth predictors and can be a reference for investors to make investment decisions.

Authors: Pragati Balasaheb Khilari  , Dr. Sadashiv Narayan Bolbhat
Published: November 2024

Annona muricata's role in healthcare has been better understood thanks to recent scientific and technological developments. Acetogenins, coumarins, phenolic acids, alkaloids, and flavonoids are among the phytochemical components. Antioxidants, antimicrobials, anti-diabetes, and a host of other health advantages are provided by the phytochemical composition. The purpose of this research was to detect phenolic and flavonoid phytochemicals in extracts from the leaves and pulp of the Annona muricata plant, as well as to compare and contrast the two components' antioxidant and antimicrobial capabilities. A Annona muricata tree was used to harvest the pulp and remove the leaves. The disc diffusion technique was used for antimicrobial testing against S. aureus, and antioxidant assays such as FRAP, DPPH, and TPC were performed. The investigation included samples with concentrations of 25, 50, 100, 200, and 400 μg/ml. The research found that different concentrations of 25μg, 50μ100μg, 200μ, and 400μg of extracts from the leaves and pulp of Annona muricata had a satisfactory level of antioxidants. The antibacterial activity of both extracts is effectiv e at such concentrations, however. When looking at the antioxidant content and sensitivity to microbes in the pulp and leaves extracts, the leaves extract comes out on top.

Aims & Background: The biomechanical preparation is considered a critical step in the Pulpectomy procedure. The goal is to remove the microbiological contents in the canal and protect tooth function. In-vitro studies demonstrate that the shape of the root canal is more conical, favouring higher obturation quality and thereby increasing success rate using rotary files. So, this clinical trial aims to compare the volume of root canals before and after root canal instrumentation using hand and rotary files and to evaluate the flow of obturating material using CBCT in primary molars. Materials and Methods: This trial was conducted in 20 primary molars which were assigned to Group 1 (Hand files) and Group 2 (Rotary files). A CBCT was taken at 3 different intervals i.e., Prior to the procedure, After BMP, After the procedure. The difference between the Pre-instrumentation and Post-instrumentation CBCT images reveals the 3D volume change measured using hand and rotary files. Post-instrumentation and Post-obturation CBCT scans display the flow of root canal filling material in primary molars. Results: There were statistically significant differences noticed within Group 1 (p value = 0.000); and pre-instrumentation and post-instrumentation, pre-instrumentation and post-obturation in Group 2 (p value = 0.000). No statistically significant difference seen between post-instrumentation and post-obturation values (p value = 0.076). Significant differences were found in post-instrumentation and post-obturation volumes between groups. Conclusion: This trial concluded that rotary files led to a more productive funnel-shaped canal preparation that resulted in better obturation quality with minimal voids than hand files. Clinical significance: Rotary files using 3D imaging allowed more conservative and efficient root canal preparation while maintaining anatomy, resulting in superior three-dimensional obturation than hand files.
The politicization of European Union trade agreement negotiations
Authors:   , Hamilton Scott Michael
Published: November 2024

What explains the politicalization of EU trade agreement negotiations? Resonance with the contestation of others! In this thesis, I present a generic theory of politicalization developed in relation to trade policy, but which is broadly applicable across policy fields. I suspect that politicalization is caused by actors who are not affected by policy decisions reacting to contesting by those who are. My theory is that actors form coalitions by advocating for resolutions to the problems of others strategically, to influence the closure of their own field of interaction, or the control of enforcement resources within it. I call this strategic behavior ‘resonance ’ and construct a conditional logic through which different actors are motivated to take such political action. I build on Bartolini's (2018) distinction of political action as being motivated by the will to achieve the behavioral compliance of others by affecting conditions of closure or control. From this theoretical starting point, I derive a set of ideal-typical situations in which resonating with counterparties from another field will resolve dilemmas for different types of political actors. I test the theory using a combination of statistical analysis, network science and quantitative text analysis to determine if actors ‘resonate ’ as the theory anticipates. The thesis demonstrates the plausibility of the theory using cases tension EU trade agreement negotiations over the past 20 years. It shows that even though politicalization often begins because of stakeholder contestation, further contestation and the eventual institutionalization of politiciansanszed issues are the result of strategic behavior by actors who resonate with stakeholders to resolve dilemmas of their own.
