This research aims to describe the use of the STAD type cooperative learning model to improve students' learning abilities in learning drama texts in class VIII students at SMP Negeri 7 Muaro Jambi. The main strength of the STAD type cooperative learning model lies in students' learning skills in studying the characteristics of linguistic elements and rules in drama texts. This research was carried out at SMP Negeri 7 Muaro Jambi. The research sample was class VIII D students, totaling 30 students. The research method used is a quantitative method and a type of pre-experimental research design. Data collection was carried out by observing and testing students' abilities in studying the characteristics of linguistic elements and rules in drama texts. Data analysis using SPSS 21. The research results obtained were student grades which were influenced by the use of the STAD type cooperative learning model on the learning outcomes of class VIII students at SMP Negeri 7 Muaro Jambi. The results of data analysis show that the average post-test score is higher than the average pre-test score. The pre-test results showed that the highest score was 14 while the lowest score was 8. After being given treatment, it showed an improvement with the highest score being 19 and the lowest being 14. Hypothesis testing was carried out using the t-test. From the calculation of the t-test results on pre-test and post-test data, it shows an increase. It is known that the Sig value. (2-tailed) of 0.000 <0.005, it can be concluded that there is a real difference between student learning outcomes in pre-test and post-test data. Thus, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. This proves that the STAD type cooperative learning model is effectively used to improve students' learning abilities. From the research results, teachers are expected to increase the procurement of learning models and media. With this, teachers are more creative and innovative in learning activities. The learning process also makes students not feel bored and fed up, which can increase their motivation to learn.

Improving the quality of human resources is greatly influenced by the quality of education. There is a systematic mechanism for preserving knowledge and information in education. The quality of education often focuses on the quality of graduates, but without a quality educational process, high quality graduates (output) cannot be obtained. With the current development of the education industry, funding can be said to be quite a complex issue that needs to be considered by education providers. Because the basic problems of education will be related to educational staff problems, learning mechanism problems, infrastructure problems, sales problems and other aspects related to financial problems. The teaching and learning process will be hampered by the failure of educational institutions to provide funds. Obstacles in the teaching and learning process automatically cause people to lose trust in the institution. However, excessive funding does not guarantee better school management (Winarsih, 2016 ). This research uses a qualitative descriptive research method, which is a method that studies the current situation of human groups, objects, and conditions with a system of thought, or a series of events in the present. here were 6 informants/subjects for this research, including the head of the madrasa, the deputy head of the madrasa in the field of infrastructure, the deputy head of the madrasa in the field of curriculum, the deputy head of the madrasa in the field of student affairs, the deputy head of the madrasa in the field of public relations and the educational staff of MI Mahabbatullah Jambi City. The results of the research show that Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Mahabbatullah Jambi City does the following in managing education funds: (1) Planning and formulating policies consisting of data collection, data processing, and diagnosis, summarizing needs, budgeting the necessary resources and choosing objectives, (2) plan, (3) outline the plan, (4) implement the plan, and (5) then revise and plan the next strategy.

Social studies is known as boring and lazy learning because there are history lessons whose form cannot be seen directly. Therefore, visual learning media is needed which is assumed to be able to help teachers in social studies learning. This research was conducted to analyze the use of visual media in social studies learning. This research uses library methods to collect data and information related to identifying articles, books and supporting documents which are then analyzed. The research results show that utilizing visual media can help students develop visual abilities. Besides that, visual media is a learning tool that can develop students' imagination in learning activities. Thus, this research illustrates the use of visual media as a learning medium that can help students improve their mastery of events that are impossible to present in the classroom, such as social studies learning.

Hematological cancers are among the most common cancers in adults and children. Despite significant improvements in therapies, many patients still succumb to the disease. Therefore, novel therapies are needed. The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASp) family regulates actin assembly in conjunction with the Arp2/3 complex, a ubiquitous nucleation factor. WASp is expressed exclusively in hematopoietic cells and exists in two allosteric conformations: autoinhibited or activated. Here, we describe the development of EG-011, a first-in-class small molecule activator of the WASp auto-inhibited form. EG-011 possesses in vitro and in vivo anti-tumor activity as a single agent in lymphoma, leukemia, and multiple myeloma, including models of secondary resistance to PI3K, BTK, and proteasome inhibitors. The in vitro activity was confirmed in a lymphoma xenograft. Actin polymerization and WASp binding was demonstrated using multiple techniques. Transcriptome analysis highlighted homology with drugs-inducing actin polymerization.
Clinical impact of clonal hematopoiesis in hematopoietic cell transplantation: a review, metaanalysis, and call to action

Published: June 2024

Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is the only potentially curative treatment option for many patients with hematologic malignancies. While HCT outcomes have improved drastically over the years, patients and clinicians continue to face numerous survivorship challenges, such as relapse, graft-versushost disease, and secondary malignancies. Recent literature suggests that clonal hematopoiesis (CH), the presence of a recurrent somatic mutation in hematopoietic cells, in HCT patients or donors may be associated with outcomes in autologous and allogeneic HCT. Herein, we perform a review of the literature and summarize reported associations between CH and clinical outcomes in HCT. For commonly reported outcomes, we used meta-analysis methods to provide estimates of effect sizes when combining results. A total of 32 articles with relevant and independent contributions were included, covering both autologous (n = 19) and allogeneic (n = 13) HCT. The articles report variable risk for developing outcomes according to CH characteristics, patient disease status, and method of HCT. Using meta-analysis of available results, HCT outcomes with statistically significant effects by CH status include therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (OR 3.65, 95%CI 2.18-6.10) and overall survival (HR 1.38, 95%CI 1.20-1.58) in autologous HCT and relapse (HR 0.80, 95%CI 0.68-0.94) in allogeneic HCT. However, heterogeneity, biases, and limitations in the literature provide challenges for informing the translation of CH to clinical decision-making. We conclude with a call to action and discussion of next steps to build upon the current literature and provide granularity to the true clinical impact of CH in the setting of HCT.

Arvot ja aatteellinen muutos koulutuspolitiikassa
Authors: Rontu Eeva
Published: June 2024

Artikkelissa esitän teoreettisen näkökulman koulutuspolitiikan aatepohjan analysoimiseen politiikkateksteistä. Tutkimuskohteena ovat toimijoiden tärkeää ja tavoiteltavaa koskevat merkityksenannot ja niiden muutos. Merkityksenantoja tarkastelen yhdistämällä Michael Freedenin teoriaa ideologioista todellisuuden tulkintoina ja Shalom Schwartzin arvoteoriaa. Freedenin mukaan poliittiset ideologiat ovat käsitekoostumia, joiden pintatasolla on jatkuvaa muutosta mutta ytimessä muutama vakaa ydinkäsite. Katson ydinkäsitteiden olevan arvoja, yleisluontoisia tärkeinä pidettyjä päämääriä, joita jäsennän Schwartzin arvoluokittelulla.Merkityksenantojen muutosta tarkastelen episteemisen (merkityksiä koskevan) työn ja episteemisen hallinnan käsittein. Ideologiat ovat yleisinhimillistä yritystä tulkita muuttuvaa todellisuutta, mutta episteemisen työn tekniikoin voidaan myös havitella tulkinnalle kiistattomuutta, episteemistä hallintaa. Katson, että politiikassa kannatusta tavoitellaan ideologioiden pintatason käsitteitä muuntelemalla eli strategisella kehystämisellä, jolloin ydinarvot voivat peittyä näkyvistä. Politiikassa on kuitenkin pitkäikäisiä pääideologioita, joiden ydinarvot ovat kestäviä merkityksenantoja. Analysoimalla politiikkateksteistä tavoiteltavaa koskevia kehystyksiä palautan näkyviin pyrkimysten arvopohjaisuuden ja ideologisen suunnan. Havainnollistan tätä suomalaisen koulutuspolitiikan päämääriä koskevan aiemman tutkimuksen syntetisoivassa luennassa, jossa piirtyy näkyviin kaksi arvopohjaltaan vastakkaista ideologiaa: suorittamista, valtaa ja yksilöä korostava uusliberalismi sekä universalistinen sosiaalidemokraattinen humanismi. Jälkimmäinen on enemmän harmoniassa suomalaisten tärkeimpien arvojen kanssa, joita on tutkittu 1970-luvulta lähtien, mutta niihin kohdistuu kovaa muutospainetta.
Opettajiksi opiskelevien henkilökohtaisen identiteetin keskeinen merkitys sivistysprosessin tukemisessa

Published: June 2024

Koulu kompleksisena ja jännitteisenä toimintakulttuurina, johon yhteiskunnalliset ja globaalit ilmiöt yhä enemmän heijastuvat, suuntaa valon kysymykseen, millaisia opettajia ja millaista opettajankoulutusta koulu tarvitsee. Tässä artikkelissa vastaukseksi hahmotellaan holistista opettajankoulutuksen orientaatiota, jossa opiskelijoiden henkilökohtainen identiteetti otetaan kokonaisvaltaisemmin huomioon. Artikkelissamme holistinen opettajankoulutuksen orientaatio perustuu Lauri Rauhalan holistiseen ihmiskäsitykseen, jossa situationaalisuudella eli elämäntilanteella on merkittävä rooli identiteetin rakentumisessa. Identiteetin puolestaan nähdään muodostuvan dialogisen minäteorian mukaan erilaisista minä-positioista, joilla kullakin on oma äänensä ja tarkoituksensa. Tämän laadullisen tapaustutkimuksen aineisto koostuu opetusalaan epäröivästi suhtautuvien luokanopettajaopiskelijoiden haastatteluista. Aineisto ilmentää opettajaksi opiskelevien henkilökohtaisen identiteetin ja situationaalisuuden keskeistä roolia heidän opettajaidentiteettinsä rakentumisen prosessissa. Esitämme, että opettajankoulutuksen tulisi tukea opettajaksi opiskelevien sivistysprosessia ja tällöin opettajaksi opiskelevien olisi saatava opettajankoulutuksen aikana mahdollisuus itsekasvatukseen. Itsekasvatuksella tarkoitetaan sitä, että yksilö tunnistaa ja nostaa kriittisen tarkastelun kohteeksi henkilökohtaisesta identiteetistä nousevia uskomuksia ymmärtääkseen, miten ne rajaavat ja mahdollistavat esimerkiksi maailmassa vallitsevien ilmiöiden tarkastelua, syvemmän ymmärryksen ja viisauden saavuttamista, kriittistä ajattelua sekä vuoropuhelua teorian ja käytännön kanssa.

For a fixed \(T\) and \(k \geq 2\), a \(k\)-dimensional vector stochastic differential equation \(dX_t=\mu(X_t, \theta)\,dt+\nu(X_t)\,dW_t,\) is studied over a time interval \([0,T]\). Vector of drift parameters \(\theta\) is unknown. The dependence in \(\theta\) is in general nonlinear. We prove that the difference between approximate maximum likelihood estimator of the drift parameter \(\overline{\theta}_n\equiv \overline{\theta}_{n,T}\) obtained from discrete observations \((X_{i\Delta_n}, 0 \leq i \leq n)\) and maximum likelihood estimator \(\hat{\theta}\equiv \hat{\theta}_T\) obtained from continuous observations \((X_t, 0\leq t\leq T)\), when \(\Delta_n=T/n\) tends to zero, converges stably in law to the mixed normal random vector with covariance matrix that depends on \(\hat{\theta}\) and on path \((X_t, 0 \leq t\leq T)\). The uniform ellipticity of diffusion matrix \(S(x)=\nu(x)\nu(x)^T\) emerges as the main assumption on the diffusion coefficient function.

Using a nested concurrent research design, a sample size of 148 teachers was selected from a population of 234 using the Slovin (1960) formula and a random technique in Microsoft Excel. Additionally, ten teachers from the sample were interviewed. The study identified various teaching strategies used during the pandemic, including the demonstration method, online teaching, question and answers, individual play, and discussion method, all adapted to address the unique challenges posed by the outbreak. The study recommends that the Ministry of Education and Ghana Education Service provide early childhood teachers with training on pedagogical approaches for disease outbreaks and make ICT resources available in early childhood centers to better prepare teachers and students for digital learning in such circumstances. These measures aim to ensure that educators are better equipped to handle unforeseen challenges in the future.
Mapping Grassroot Women’s Representations in Academic Research on the Women, Peace and Security Agenda in the Global South
Authors: Denagamage Piumi , Lekwauwa Grace Amarachi , Hurtado-Bautista Adriana Mayela
Published: June 2024

Several feminists and academic scholars have written extensively on implementing the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) agenda and how it has been localized in conflict and post-conflict settings. In the same light, the rising inquiry on the connection of academic writing to empirical studies provides resolution to how WPS agenda could be localized. The objective of this paper is to conduct an exploratory mapping of existing literature on how grassroots women are represented in the academic literature on the localization of the WPS agenda in the Global South. Using a thematic method of analysis, this mapping exercise identified four recurring themes across the academic literature namely the multiple interpretations of ‘grassroots women’ in the Global South, grassroots women and discursive construction of “women participant” in the WPS agenda, hierarchy formation in the representation of grassroots women within CSOs, and gender essentialism and stereotypical portrayal of grassroots women. On the one hand, the discursive and institutional construction of women’s participants identifies women as “non-participants” in the WPS agenda. On the other hand, they constitute the bottom layer of a participant hierarchy, making it difficult to reach meaningful participation. Beyond this institutional and discursive interpretation, we map women’s representation in gender essentialist stereotypes portraying them in their reproductive and caregiver identities. Connecting with critical feminist epistemologies and post-colonial feminisms, our results problematize the unequal power relations between the researcher and the researched as well as the participants themselves. We share concerns that the researchers' power to represent and interpret grassroots women and their engagement is often unchecked and unmitigated.
Analyzing Gender Disparities and Wage Differentials: A Decadal Study of the Wage Distribution
Authors: Samarasinghage Subodha
Published: June 2024

The gender wage gap worsens poverty and political decision-making regarding economically marginalized persons and indirectly benefits the wealthier sections. Increased poverty leads to premature death, violence, and crime, while reduced social security triggers unethical and illegal activities, leading to further injustices for both men and women. Sri Lanka has experienced the steepest decline in the Global Gender Gap Index rank to date, particularly from 2010–2020. This study investigates the trends in gender wage inequality during this decade. This study utilized microdata from the Sri Lanka Labor Force Surveys 2010 and 2020, obtained from the Sri Lanka Census and Statistics Department. The data was rigorously analyzed using STATA 15.0, employing pool regression and Chow tests for hypotheses testing and analyses. To ensure the validity of the results, ordinary least squares assumptions and endogeneity testing were conducted, and suitable modifications were made before using the data. Age, ethnicity, religion, education, work experience, and language literacy were the statistically significant determinants of gender wage inequality. The interactive dummy coefficient (time and gender) was -0.019, implying that the difference in hourly wage was reduced by 1.9%, although it was not statistically significant. This indicated that the gender wage gap was decreasing. The findings of this study, which reveal the trends in Sri Lanka’s gender wage inequality against the backdrop of significant shifts in its gender equality ranking, are of paramount importance. They can serve as a guide for addressing economic disparities, identifying discrepancies, promoting gender equality, and enhancing labor market efficiencies.

Lipids in immunometabolism: From lipid handling to lipid antigen presentation and back
Authors:   , Morris Imogen
Published: June 2024

Within this thesis we utilized and developed several model systems allowing us to strategically address the different levels of complex interactions and mechanisms. In chapter 2 we use a mixture of FFA’s mimicking the lipid-rich microenvironment of obesity in vitro, co-culturing these now insulin resistant (IR) adipocytes with iNKT cells demonstrated that the adipocyte IR phenotype causes a pro-inflammatory skew in iNKT cell cytokine output, suggesting that cross-talk is an important target for further research. Following this, in chapter 3, we hypothesized that AT-resident immune cells may also be detrimentally affected when exposed to a lipid-rich microenvironment. As LD’s are found in many immune cells perhaps the elevated lipid environment would cause dysfunction in iNKT cells as well, creating a compound effect of dysfunctional communication between adipocytes and iNKT cells. We found iNKT cells are capable of taking up and storing lipids in droplets, even in “lean” conditions making them highly sensitive to their lipid environment as well as their lipid content. These findings highlight the importance of distinguishing between resident immune populations, as AT-resident iNKT cells respond differently to lipid environments compared to other iNKT cells in different locations. In chapter 4 and chapter 5 we show the nuanced nature of Tribbles 3 interactions with the available local partners to deliver site specific action. Chapter 4 addresses the consequences of a global Tribbles 3 knock out, focusing on alterations –including the lipidome– in adipose tissue and adipocytes. We further investigated this in chapter 5 focusing on the change in abundance of mitochondrial specific lipid species Cardiolipins. Here we find that changes in the ultrastructure of mitochondria results better stress tolerance under acute stress. Given its diverse interactions and implications in various diseases, understanding the interactions and functions in specific cellular contexts, such as Tribbles 3’s role in adipose tissue lipidome modulation, offers potential avenues for targeted therapeutic interventions. The intricate interplay between local and global lipidomes and regulators or disruptors is an area of growing interest, as these conserved mechanisms appear to converge on crucial cellular processes. In chapter 5 we present our data which suggests that pseudokinase Tribbles 3 may participate in location specific lipid metabolism and lipid signaling pathways, modulating the lipidome and thereby influencing responses to external cues. In chapter 6 part a we reflect on the available adipose tissue model systems and the limitations they pose, showing their usefulness in specific contexts depending on the research question,. Finishing with chapter 6 part b, we review how lipidome species ratios may impact the local and global action of adipose resident iNKT cells.

The glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist semaglutide is effective for the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The purpose of this article is to define the therapeutic role of semaglutide for obesity-related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HF-pEF). Methods: Critical review of 2 recent randomized trials, the Subjects with Obesity-related Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (STEP-HFpEF) and STEP-HFpEF DM. The latter 2 studies had similar design and endpoints that evaluated efficacy and safety of semaglutide 2.4 mg/w in obese subjects without and with T2DM, respectively. The 2 primary endpoints were the change in the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire clinical summary score (KCCQ-CSS) and the percentage change in body weight. After 52 weeks, placebo-corrected amelioration in the KCCQ-CSS was similar in subjects without and with diabetes, 7.8 points (95% CI, 4.8 to 10.9; P<0.001) and 7.3 points (95% CI, 4.1 to 10.4; P<0.001), respectively. However, placebo-corrected weight loss appeared more marked in subjects without diabetes, -10.7 percentage points (95% CI, -11.9 to -9.4; P<0.001) but -6.4 percentage points (95% CI, -7.6 to -5.2; P<0.001) in patients with diabetes. In both trials, semaglutide improved the 6-minute walking distance (6-MWD) albeit more so in subjects without diabetes with placebo-adjusted difference of 20.3 meters (m) (95% CI, 8.6 to 32.1, P<0.001) and 14.3 m (95% CI, 3.7 to 24.9; P< 0.0001) in subjects without diabetes and with diabetes, respectively. In addition, semaglutide decreased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) similarly in patients with and without diabetes. In the diabetes trial, the effects of semaglutide on the KCCQ-CSS and weight reduction were attenuated in patients receiving sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. Subgroup analysis of pooled data from the 2 trials suggested that beneficial effects of semaglutide on the KCCQ-CSS might be more evident in patients with more advanced HFpEF. Adverse effects led to semaglutide discontinuation in 12% of patients compared with 7% with placebo. The most common cause of semaglutide discontinuation was gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. Overall, semaglutide improved physical performance and reduced weight in obese subjects with HF-pEF with and without diabetes. Long-term randomized trials are needed to evaluate the effects of semaglutide on cardiovascular (CV) events and mortality in obesity-related HF-pEF.

Introduction: Carcinoma mammae is a malignant tumor that develops from breast cells and has the potential to invade the surrounding tissue (invasive) or metastasize to other parts of the body. While it is more frequently diagnosed in women, there are cases where it is also found in males. Purpose: This study aims to identify variations in serum progranulin levels as distinguishing factors between benign mammary tumors and mammary carcinoma. Method: The research adopts a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design to ascertain the significance of serum progranulin levels in patients with mammary tumors. The study includes the entire accessible population diagnosed with mammary tumors by clinicians in the Surgical Oncology Department of Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Teaching Hospital in Makassar, with a sample size of 78 individuals. Normality is assessed using the Kruskal-Wallis test, and differences are examined through the Mann-Whitney test. Result: A substantial difference exists in serum progranulin levels among breast carcinoma patients with benign mammary tumors and the control group (P<0.001). The mean difference in benign tumors is 121.08±56.84, whereas in breast carcinoma, it is 239.54±34.79. Conclusion: Serum progranulin levels can be employed as a potential alternative for diagnostic support in the early detection of both benign mammary tumors and mammary carcinoma.

There has been a reduction in prevalence of stunting nationally, the prevalence is still high in several regions, including Kerinci Regency. This study focused on identifying hotspots for stunting cases in Kerinci Regency, Jambi Province, utilizing spatial autocorrelation analysis. The research aimed to pinpoint specific regions with high prevalence of stunting in 2019, 2020, and 2021, highlighting the importance of tailored interventions at the village level to combat stunting effectively. This research utilized data on stunting cases sourced from the community-based nutrition recording and reporting system (e-PPGBM) from 2019 to 2021. Spatial autocorrelation analysis was conducted using the global and local indicator for spatial auto correlation (LISA) with village as the analysis unit. This study found the Moran Index values in 2019, 2020, and 2021 were 0.148, 0177, and 0.238 respectively. Hotspots were found in specific regions of the regency in each year, with shifts in distribution patterns observed. In 2019, hotspots were in the southwest region, in 2020 in the central part, and in 2021 in the southwest region. These findings highlight the importance of targeted interventions at the village level to address issues effectively. Continued monitoring and targeted efforts are crucial to address the shifting patterns and improve the overall nutritional status of the population.
Вода в румынских заговорах и заговорах романоязычного населения долины реки Тимок / Water in Romanian Incantations and in the Incantations of the Romanian-Speaking Population of the Timok Valley
Authors: Рыжова М.М.
Published: June 2024

В статье понятие «вода» рассматривается как в узком функциональном плане в качестве одного из элементов предметной сферы акционального компонента заговора (действии), так и в качестве словесного образа в его вербальном компоненте (тексте). В качестве основного источникового материала автором статьи были выбраны румынские заговоры конца XIX — начала XX в., представленные в собраниях румынских исследователей С. Фл. Мариана, Е. Никулицэ-Воронка, Э. Ходоша, А. Горовея, а также заговоры романоязычного населения долины реки Тимок из собраний исследователя К. Санду-Тимока, современных исследователей С. Гацовича и В. Попович, а также зафиксированные автором статьи и Н. Г. Голант в ходе экспедиций 2018 и 2019 гг. в восточную Сербию тексты и описания ритуалов заговоров. В статье приводятся названия типов воды, используемых в заговорах румын и романоязычного населения восточной Сербии. На примере одного из заговоров из собрания С. Фл. Мариана демонстрируется тесная связь между акциональным и вербальным компонентами заговора, в которых вода играет организующую роль и представлена в динамичном процессе перехода из одного условного типа в другой (проточная, специальная, заговоренная и т. д.). Вода является основным элементом многих лечебных и любовных заговоров, а также гадательных практик. В изложенных примерах показано, что в заговорах вода наделяется особой магической силой и является элементом, объединяющим акциональный и вербальный компоненты.
The article considers the concept of water both in the narrow functional plane as an element of the subject sphere of the actional component of an incantation and as an image in its verbal component (in text). The main sources of the study are the Romanian spells of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, represented in the collections of Romanian researchers such as S. Fl. Marian, E. Niculice-Voronca, E. Hodos and A. Gorovei, the incantations of the Romanian-speaking population of the Timok River valley collected by C. Sandu-Timok, contemporary researchers S. Gacovici and V. Popovic, as well as texts and descriptions of incantation rituals collected by the author together with N. Golant in expeditions to the Eastern Serbia in 2018 and 2019. The paper presents different names of the types of water used in Romanian incantations. Using the example of an incantation from the collection of S. Fl. Marian the author demonstrates the close connection between the actional and verbal components of the incantation, where water plays an organizing role and is represented in a dynamic process of transition from one type to another (flowing, special, incantated, etc.). Water is a basic element of many therapeutic and love incantations and divination practices. Examples covered in this article show that water is endowed with a special magical power and is an element uniting the actional and verbal components.
Историко-правовые аспекты наследственных и имущественных отношений мордвы по материалам В. Н. Майнова / Historical and Legal Aspects of Hereditary and Property Relations of the Mordovians Based on the Materials by V. N. Mainov
Authors: Щанкина Л.Н.
Published: June 2024

В фокусе исследования — имущественные и наследственные отношения мордовских крестьян, проживавших на территории Поволжья во второй половине XIX в. Указанная проблематика, а также вопросы договорных и семейных отношений крестьянского населения России в целом нашли отражение в дореволюционной науке. На том этапе происходило не только расширение ее источниковой базы, но и введение в оборот существенного массива данных соответствующей юридической практики. Основным ресурсом для написания статьи послужил опубликованный в 1885 г. труд Виктора Николаевича Майнова «Очерк юридического быта мордвы», в который включены сведения, собранные им в 1877 г. в ходе этнографических выездов в губернии Европейской части страны (Казанскую, Нижегородскую, Пензенскую, Самарскую, Симбирскую и Тамбовскую). В монографии описаны ключевые элементы семейного права (в частности, формы и условия заключения брака, семейные разделы, взаимоотношения членов семьи) и на большом фактическом материале рассмотрены такие сферы права, как наследственное, имущественное, вещное и договорное в аспекте их значения в жизни мордовского народа. Автор статьи отмечает источниковедческую значимость труда В. Н. Майнова для изучения истории становления правовой культуры мордвы, поскольку многие ее стороны, в частности, наследственное право мордовских крестьян до сих пор остаются мало исследованной страницей отечественной историко-юридической науки.
The focus of the study is the property and hereditary relations of Mordovian peasants who lived in the Volga region in the second half of the 19th century. This problem, as well as the issues of contractual and family relations of the peasant population of Russia as a whole, was reflected in pre-revolutionary science. At this stage, the research expanded significantly the amount of sources on this topic and introduced abundant data from the relevant legal practice. The present article is based on "An Essay on the Legal Life of the Mordovians" by Viktor Nikolaevich Mainov published in 1885, which includes all the information he collected in 1877 during ethnographic research in the provinces of the European part of the country (Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, Penza, Samara, Simbirsk and Tambov). The monograph addresses important elements of family law (in particular, the forms and conditions of marriage, property division, relationships between family members) and considers hereditary, property, material and contractual law in the life of Mordovians on a large factual material. The author of the article highlights the significance of V.N. Mainov’s work for studying the history of the legal culture of the Mordovians, since many of its aspects, in particular, the hereditary law of Mordovian peasants, still remain understudied in Russian historical and legal science.
