Authors: Bogatyrev I. S. , Tsatsulin A. N.
Published: February 2024

The concept of attitude towards objects of immovable cultural heritage, formed more than a century ago, is relevant today, based on the premises that these material objects form an objective value in the perception and understanding of any individual, any society, any civilization. The purpose of the article is to conduct a preliminary analysis of the problems that form the understanding of the value of cultural heritage, preservation and careful treatment of it in the modes of restoration activities and restoration work. Achieving the goal can be the solution of a number of problems regarding the proper state protection of objects of immovable cultural heritage and the necessary assistance from the state, public institutions and international organizations, as well as taking into account the assigned status of the object in the matter of rescue, restoration and gentle scientific restoration. Currently existing directions and developments in a comprehensive assessment of architectural monuments of the past, observation methods, active comparative studies, and statistical measurements are considered as methodological and instrumental approaches to solving emerging problems. The results obtained by the authors included a study of the complex interaction and isolated influence on the category of value of such significant features-factors as evaluation criteria such as cultural and collective memory, historical reputation in their meaning for the self-identification of society and in the development of strategies in the field of preservation of cultural heritage objects and their use in the exploitation of the recreational potential of the destination by the tourism business.

Published: February 2024

O presente artigo trata sobre a percepção de uma professora de Ciências Naturais dos anos finais do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública do município de Codó-MA sobre o Sistema de Avaliação da Educação Básica-Saeb. A pesquisa foi realizada entre o período de agosto e setembro de 2022 e contou com a participação da única professora de Ciências Naturais da referida escola. Esse trabalho foi realizado em colaboração com o Grupo de Estudos e Pesquisas em Políticas Educacionais (GEPESPO) da Universidade Federal do Maranhão do Curso Interdisciplinar de Ciências Naturais/ Biologia. A metodologia do artigo fundamenta-se em uma pesquisa qualitativa com a utilização de entrevista e questionário semiestruturado desenvolvido na referida escola, tendo como foco de análise o materialismo histórico dialético, compreendendo o contexto escolar e suas contradições a partir da exigência das avaliações externas. Os resultados apontam que a escola desenvolve atividades preparatórias técnicas com foco apenas em Língua Portuguesa e Matemática, objetivando uma melhor colocação estatística e a competição entre instituições de ensino reverberando na ausência de uma formação pedagógica avaliativa que dialogue com outros componentes curriculares, e subsidie a melhoria da qualidade educacional do município. Essa pesquisa contribui para a necessidade pontual de uma concepção de avaliação formativa, lugares de diálogo entre a escola e a Universidade, quer por meio dos grupos de estudos, quer pela inclusão de componentes curriculares como Gestão educacional nos projetos políticos de cursos de licenciatura como uma política de formação inicial e continuada de professores/as para a educação básica pública.
São Luís em tempos de “Maranhão Novo”: a (re)construção de uma capital moderna sob o Governo José Sarney (1966-1970)
Authors: Costa Marcelo Lima
Published: February 2024

O presente texto busca apresentar o debate acerca da modernização urbana, travado durante ofinal dos anos 1960, que estiveram na origem da expressão “Maranhão Novo”. Instituições novas, em especial o Porto do Itaqui, e um novo plano rodoviário deveriam ser os símbolos do “novo”. As obras realizadas no espaço urbano de São Luiz, projetadas por jovens tecnocratas, buscavam dar à capital do Maranhão uma nova fisionomia, compatível com a modernização proposta para o estado. Novas avenidas deveriam surgir sobretudo nas áreas alagadas do Centro. Os alagamentos, signos do atraso, deveriam ceder lugar ao asfalto e ao concreto armado. Signo máximo da modernidade, as novas pontes deveriam ligar a cidade antiga dos sobradões, à cidade nova. Essas intervenções urbanas suscitaram a construção de uma nova narrativa,, que escamoteava muitos espaços da cidade, alheios ao movimento moderno. Por sua natureza excepcional, o moderno foi limitado.

Depending on intensity, physical exercise in horses causes various changes in the parameters of hematological, biochemical, acid-base, and electrolyte status, which can affect the health and athletic performance of the horse. This study?s objective was to look at how submaximal exercise at the end of the racing season affected the horses? hematological, biochemical, acid-base, and electrolyte status markers. In this study, eight (n=8) trotters, aged 4?2 years, were involved. Venous blood samples were drawn from each horse by jugular puncture before and after exercise to determine hematologic, biochemical, acid-base and electrolyte parameters. The submaximal physical exercise in this study was two intervals of 2,000 m of slow trotting and two consecutive runs of 500 m at submaximal level. Hematocrit (HCT), red blood cell (RBC) and monocyte count, hemoglobin (HGB) concentration, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activity, and glucose concentration increased significantly after the exercise. Additionally, significant decreases in venous blood pH, bicarbonate (HCO3-) and total CO2 (TCO2) concentration, base excess of the extracellular fluid (BEecf), and ionized Ca2+ (iCa2+) concentrations were established after exercise. In contrast, partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2), total concentration of weak acids (Atot), the anion gap (AG), and total protein and lactate concentrations were significantly higher after exercise. Considering the significant changes in the parameters of hematological, biochemical, and acid-base status after submaximal exercise, determining those parameters would be useful for monitoring the health and performance of trotters.

Published: February 2024

Introduction. Basaloid follicular hamartoma (BFH) is a rare benign follicular malformation often clinically misdiagnosed. Patients with BFH demonstrate a variety of clinical manifestations and associated abnormalities. BFH may be a familial, congenital, or acquired condition with a localized or generalized distribution. Several clinical variants of generalized BFH are recognized, which may be associated with a diverse spectrum of abnormalities. Case report. We present two cases of solitary BFH in pediatric patients. The first patient was a 16- year-old boy with a history of autism spectrum disorder, admitted to our department for consultation due to a harmless dermal nevus on his face. The second patient was a six-year-old girl presented with a ten-month history of an asymptomatic, skin-colored papule located on the right nasolabial fold that gradually increased in size over time. Both cases were documented dermoscopically, and they were presented with a brief overview of the current literature. Conclusion. Considering the overlapping clinical, histological, and dermoscopic features of BFH with other benign and malignant lesions, its incidence in pediatric patients is probably higher than what is reported in the current literature.

Objective Most gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) studies have combined women whether or not hyperglycemia was present earlier in pregnancy. This study compared perinatal outcomes between women with early GDM (EGDM: diagnosed <20 weeks’, but untreated until 24-28 weeks’ if GDM still present), late GDM (LGDM: present only at 24-28 weeks’), and normoglycemia at 24-28 weeks’ (controls). Research Design and Methods This is a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled treatment trial of early GDM (defined using WHO 2013 criteria) among women with risk factors <20 weeks’ gestation. Those receiving early GDM treatment were excluded. GDM was treated if present at 24-28 weeks’. The primary outcome was a composite of birth <37+0 weeks’, birthweight≥4500g, birth trauma, neonatal respiratory distress, phototherapy, stillbirth/neonatal death and/or shoulder dystocia. Comparisons were adjusted for age, ethnicity, body mass index (BMI), site, smoking, primigravity and education. Results Women with EGDM (n=254) and LGDM (n=467) had shorter pregnancy duration than controls (n=2339). BMI was lowest with LGDM. The composite was increased with EGDM (OR 1.59, 95%CI 1.18-2.12)) but not LGDM (OR 1.19, 95%CI 0.94-1.50)). Induction of labor was higher in both GDM groups. EGDM (but not LGDM) had higher birth centile, preterm birth rate and neonatal jaundice compared to controls. The greatest need for insulin and/or metformin was with EGDM. Conclusions Adverse perinatal outcomes were increased with EGDM despite treatment from 24-28 weeks’, suggesting the need to initiate treatment early, and more aggressively, to reduce the effects of exposure to the more severe maternal hyperglycemia from early pregnancy.

A total of 384 cattle were selected randomly and examined to check for the presence of indigestible foreign bodies in the rumen and reticulum of study animals. Among them, 109(28.39%) were found positive for the occurrence of indigestible foreign bodies in rumen and reticulum. Age, body condition and origin of the animals were determined during ante mortem examination while animals were examined for indigestible foreign bodies during postmortem examination. Age, body condition score and origin of animals had significant (P<0.05) effect on the prevalence of foreign bodies. Foreign bodies were highest in cattle old age groups 58(36.71%) followed by young 28(23.53%) and adult 23(21.50%). The prevalence rate recorded in poor, medium, and good body condition of cattle were 62(68.89%), 34(32.69%) and 13(6.84%), respectively. The significantly (P=0.000) higher foreign bodies in rumen and reticulum were found in cattle originated from Babile 58(60.42%) followed by kombolcha 24(25.00%) and Girawa 17(17.71%) and the lower prevalence were observed in Gorogutu 10(10.42%). Out of 109 (28.39%) total positive cases of foreign bodies 56(14.58%), 35(9.11 %) and 18(4.69 %) prevalence rate of foreign bodies were observed in rumen, reticulum and both rumen and reticulum, respectively. Rumen harbored mostly non-metallic foreign materials while reticulum was the major site for the retention of metallic objects. Plastic 38(9.90%) were recovered as the most common foreign bodies followed by rope 16(4.17%), cloth and plastic 16(4.17%), Nail 13(3.39%), wire 12 (3.13%), cloth 7(1.82 %), and rope and plastic 7(1.82 %).

Consequently, appropriate solid waste disposal system need to implement in the study area to prevent health risk of ruminants and also to protect the environment.
Coal Exists, Therefore it Must be dug up
Authors: Bowden Vanessa
Published: February 2024

As the world’s second largest exporter of coal, Australia has been notoriously reticent to facilitate the technological transitions required to alleviate climate change. The influence of the mining lobby has been well documented, as have the machinations of successive governments, who have had little success in overcoming this influence, or determination to do so. Yet communities in coal mining regions of the Hunter Valley are increasingly, and actively, questioning the morality of the industry. From conflicts over land use, to the impacts that burning coal has on climate change, the coal industry is aware of the tenuous nature of its social license to operate. In response it has invested in campaigns which emphasises the role of the industry in building the local ecology: not only of the local regional economy, but also in building historical and cultural value, in an attempt to ‘lock-in’ mining’s particular values and ethics. As the pressure on coal from international forces increases, this restrictive view is challenged, with the nation committed to the technologies and pollutions of the past and left behind as others move towards cleaner sources of energy. Power and ethics shape not only visions of the future, but the capacity to engage with the likely social and physical outcomes of those actions.

Globalization affects every line of human cultural life, including theatre arts. As an important subsystem in culture, art is a manifestation of the complexity of human culture which is embedded coherently in its cultural identity. The city of Medan is a city with relatively dynamic theater development which has various groups with various theater genres. This tendency also gives rise to a tendency to use traditional culture as the basic material for creating theatrical works, for example, the Bandar Peran group. This group staged the work "Opera Batak Si Mardan" which involved the charm of Batak Toba and Malay culture simultaneously. In this research, it was found that the Bandar Peran group used a dual orientation imagination in its creation process and the traditional idiom used led to postmodern aesthetic tendencies. This research uses qualitative research methods to understand in depth the conditions and phenomena in the field. Apart from that, this article is also intended as a form of inventive criticism so that the content of the article uses the critical framework explained by Benny Yohanes.Globalisasi mempengaruhi setiap lini kehidupan kebudayaan manusia, termasuk seni teater. Sebagai subsistem penting dalam kebudayaan, seni merupakan wujud kompleksitas kebudayaan manusia yang tertanam secara koheren dalam identitas budayanya. Kota Medan merupakan kota dengan perkembangan teater yang relatif dinamis yang mempunyai berbagai kelompok dengan genre teater yang beragam. Kecenderungan tersebut juga memunculkan kecenderungan untuk menggunakan budaya tradisional sebagai bahan dasar penciptaan karya teater, misalnya kelompok Bandar Peran. Kelompok ini mementaskan karya “Opera Batak Si Mardan” yang melibatkan budaya Batak Toba dan Melayu secara bersamaan. Maka dalam artikel ini ditemukan hasil bahwa kelompok yang menggunakan imajinasi orientasi ganda dalam proses penciptaannya dan idiom tradisional yang digunakan mengarah pada kecenderungan estetika postmodern. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif untuk memahami secara mendalam kondisi dan fenomena di lapangan. Selain itu, artikel ini juga ditujukan sebagai bentuk kritik inventif agar isi artikel menggunakan kerangka kritis yang dijelaskan oleh Benny Yohanes.
Teacher Voices of Gender Representation in EFL Textbook: A case Study in a Senior High School
Authors: Wilfitri Elvia , Suganda Sonya Puspasari
Published: February 2024

This research investigated teachers' perceptions regarding gender representation in two government-mandated English language textbooks used in Indonesian senior high schools. This research aims to examine the perceptions of teachers as users and implementers of textbooks regarding the existence of gender bias and stereotypes. This research used a qualitative method with a case study design. The research involved 2 participants, the English teachers who teach in grades 10 and grade 11. Semi-structured interviews were used as the instrument in this research. Analysis of interview data was transcribed manually and then interpreted critically in accordance with Creswell's theory. The findings from this study showed that both teachers expressed awareness of the gender bias and stereotypes present in the textbooks they used. Male representation is more dominant than female. Female roles tend to be placed in stereotypes constructed in society. The existence of certain ideologies is also the cause of unequal gender representation in textbooks. There is a need for continuous development and improvement of textbooks in order to promote equal gender representation. The pedagogical implications of the findings in this research proposed recommendations to educational institution sectors and language policy makers to prepare and publish textbooks that support the achievement of gender equality.
K politickému liberalizmu Johna Rawlsa: Perspektivy a úskalí v současném občansko-politickém diskurze
Authors: Horemuž Martin , Švec Jakub
Published: February 2024

Except to the Theory of Justice from 1971, which fundamentally changed the view of pluralist democracies with a market system on the welfare state and redistribution, John Rawls was also responsible for another application of philosophical doctrine to political practice by the form of the idea of political liberalism. This approach, as in the case of the „Theory of Justice“, was to once again solve the fundamental dilemma of democratic and pluralist societies built on the value basis of liberal tradition and market economy, how to approach opinion opponents who hold other ideological attitudes, which operate in democratic frameworks. In the presented text, we tried for an objective definition of John Rawls's political liberalism, while the study had the ambition to analyze the perspectives and pitfalls of this concept for the contemporary civil-political discourse. For the purpose of the presented study, we chose the method of analysis of the author's original work as well as secondary literature. Subsequently, we synthesized the obtained partial findings into statements and knowledge of new quality. The study demonstrated that, similar to the author's work „Theory of Justice“, this concept of the author in the form of „Political Liberalism“ is workable and applicable in civil-political practice. However, the text also works with the idea, that this approach is currently accepted rather formally, and the idea of political liberalism necessarily runs into the problem of gradual preference of liberal conceptions of the good life. By referring to authors from domestic and also foreign philosophical communities, the text demonstrated the international and interdisciplinary scope of the problem, which extends into the broad field of humanities and social sciences..
Bosna a Hercegovina - neracionálne ambície v spore o secesiu
Authors: Jančo Ján , Kompan Jaroslav
Published: February 2024

Bosnia and Herzegovina is a state composed of different ethnic, religious and cultural identities, with a complicated political and administrative system in which it is difficult to achieve political and economic progress. Bosnia and Herzegovina is a state in which the symptoms of conflict and fragmentation are present, particularly in the context of secessionist efforts by representatives of the Republika Srpska. Although the conflict or the dispute over the secession of the Republika Srpska could be considered rational, we considered the ambitions of the representatives of the Republika Srpska to be irrational, also in view of the predicted development of this dispute and the impact of the efforts of the international community. Therefore, the study was focused on the threat of secession efforts from the Republika Srpska and analysed and assessed the actual situation in the years 2020-2023. The aim of the study was to predict the development of the situation in relation to the secessionist efforts of the representatives of the Republika Srpska. The study used the model of unrecognised statehood to make a forecast. It took into account not only the ambitions of the secessionist entity and the threatened state, but also the influence of external actors pursuing their ambitions. By applying a comprehensive approach to assessing the secessionist conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the study predicted the outcome in terms of “status quo equilibria”.
