Poetry
Authors: Bowen Bernadette Ann
Published: June 2021

These pieces of COVID-19 poetry in their pixelated form follow McLuhan’s playful use and misuse of the phonetic English language. They contribute to media ecology a continued poetic exploration into how our blurry presences in physical and digital spaces engender our landscapes at varying degrees and levels of experience. Through poetic exploration of this envirusment, I invoke the inherently insufficient and terminally playful qualities of language; both enabling and disabling our dualistic experiential accounts of proximity, relations and visceral corporeality in present-COVID. Depending on which dimension readers interpretatively focus on while reading, their own unique personal frame will guide their own unique translation.
De-technologizing media ecology pedagogy: A plea for tradition, practice and narrative
Authors: P. McCullough Ryan
Published: June 2021

This article explains how Jacques Ellul’s conception of technique intervenes into media ecology pedagogy. Technique appears in media ecology pedagogy through attempts to turn media ecology into an academic discipline and by placing discussions of media ecology in the classroom into the realm of communication theory. The intervention of technique on media ecology pedagogy undercuts the major tenets of media ecology and its ethical orientation, and this intervention also undermines media ecology’s potency to elucidate the human condition. As an alternative to discipline and theory, this article forwards tradition, practice and narrative as pedagogical options and orientations, which allow media ecologists to carry the study of media as environments into a variety of classroom contexts and discussions.

Of everyday objects and icons: A closer look at Betye Saar’s I’ll Bend But I Will Not Break
Authors: Ganas Julie
Published: June 2021

This article examines the use of the everyday household object and historical icons used in the assemblage work of artist Betye Saar, and how when juxtaposed alongside one another create a meaningful narrative. The specific work being analysed is Saar’s installation piece I’ll Bend But I Will Not Break from 1998. In deconstructing the visual elements of this artwork their individual meanings can be deciphered and then analysed when looked at holistically. Using a semiotic approach to these visual elements creates individual meanings that collectively transform the artwork into a larger narrative, layered with significance and feminist and activist undertones.

Published: June 2021

Az új amerikai adminisztráció hivatalba lépése korszakhatár a világpolitikában. A globalizmus tartalma megváltozott, Biden világossá tette, hogy elkötelezett a globalizáció és az új világrend mellett. 2021-ben már más világban élünk. Új világ van születőben. A tudományok köre kibővült, az új tudás új állami erőcentrumokat hozott létre. A változás nyomon követhető a termelési folyamat alapvető átalakulásában. Az új termelési mód kialakítja az új életmódot. Biden Amerikája ezt észlelve cselekszik, igy az ő 100 napja több, mint az Egyesült Államok sorsfordító története. Az Egyesült Államok a világ vezető hatalma ma is, de hegemón szerepét ma már másként gyakorolja, mint a XX. vagy a XXI. század eddig eltelt időszakában., ehhez keres partnereket. Ez a folyamat különösen a technológiai fejlődésen látszik. Az elmúlt 100 nap sikerét nem lehet levezetni az egészségügyi veszélyhelyzetre történt reagálásból. Honlapunkon már többször is felhívtuk a figyelmet az amerikai külpolitika és gazdaságpolitika egyes elemeire. Bár a 100 nap csak 5 nap múlva ér véget, mégis fontosnak tartottuk, hogy olvasóinknak értékelést adjunk a kormányzat eddigi teljesítményéről. Ez alkalommal két szakértőt, Jody Jensent és Jim Skelley-t kértük meg arra, hogy fejtsék ki az álláspontjukat az elmúlt 100 napról. Az alábbi kérdéseket tettük fel: 1. Új korszak kezdődik-e a Biden adminisztrációval? 2. Hogyan jellemezhető az új geopolitikai környezet, amivel találkozott az új elnök? 3. Kína és Oroszország tekintetében milyen lépésekre lehet számítani az Egyesült Államok részéről? 4. Mire lehet számítani a gazdasági újjáépítés szempontjából? 5. Az amerikai társadalmon belüli feszültségeket hogyan fogja kezelni a Biden-kormányzat?
Societal trust and nation-thinking in the midst of a pandemic – Central Europe and Scandinavia
Authors: Bielicki Alexander
Published: June 2021

Trust in those who lead the government, trust in the way society is ordered, and trust in other people can all influence how individuals perceive the country in which they live. This study examines the different facets of societal trust (the complex network of state, political, national and social trust) in four European countries – Norway, Sweden, Slovakia and the Czech Republic – and connects these with how people understand their society to be organized, especially the degree to which the national frame is relevant. The results presented from these four countries offer a more nuanced picture of what it means to have trust in government and institutions and what it means to have trust in those who inhabit one’s country, especially in a time of crisis. The main data sources are identical surveys in four languages.
Szennyezési jogok hatása a vállalati termelési stratégiára = Effect of pollution rights on production strategy of firm
Authors: Dobos Imre
Published: June 2021

A cikk a szennyezési jogok bevezetését vizsgálja a mikroökonómia standard vállalatára. A komparatív statika módszerével vizsgáljuk a termelő vállalat lehetséges reakcióit a szennyezési jog bevezetésére. A vállalatok stratégiája a szennyezési jog bevezetésére a technológia változatlanul hagyása, vagy megváltoztatása lehet. Az egyes esetekben arra keresünk választ, hogy hogyan változik a vállalat nyeresége a bevezetés előtti állapothoz képest, és ez milyen szennyezési stratégiával jár. Szennyezési jogot elad-e, vagy vesz a vállalat a szennyezési jogok piacán? = The paper deals with the effect of an introduction of tradable permits on the production strategy of a firm. It is assumed that the firm will maximize its profit. After introducing the emission trading the profit function will contain the linear emission procurement/selling costs. We will compare the optimal production strategy before tradable permits and after that. The mathematical investigation is based on the nonlinear mathematical programming.

Neste ensaio teórico-visual o entendimento do feminino - na sua percepção como falta e silêncio - a partir da literatura de Marguerite Duras entra em relação com reflexões espaciais e imagens realizadas durante período de pesquisa na França. Tendo como ponto de partida a obra literária e cinematográfica de duras, especialmente o roteiro do filme “Hiroshima meu amor” e a cidade de Nevers, a realização dos trabalhos visuais surgem no percorrer de seus lugares literários, considerando aspectos locais, elementos de sobreposição entre realidade e ficção e uma ideia de reconstrução do lugar a partir da experiência.  Visualidade e literatura se tornam diferentes formas de vivenciar tanto um texto como um lugar.
David Lynch
Authors: Rauscher Beatriz , Rouquet Karine , Kerinska Nikoleta
Published: June 2021

Este curta metragem, para além da alegada herança do surrealismo, utiliza processos híbridos cômicos e fantásticos (como a criação de uma quimera, a narração disruptiva, os diálogos nonsenses voltados para a fatrasia), que retomam a carnavalização descrita por Michaël Bakhtine, e mais particularmente La Sottie, uma peça satírica em versos, de origens medievais, apresentada na época do carnaval. A referência ao Elogio da Loucura de Erasmo seria uma prova disso. Nesse desfile bufão, David Lynch feito um Mestre do Absurdo [1] se diverte colapsando os códigos da narração do film noir, como sua própria filmografia, criando uma estética turbulenta capaz de desafiar a plataforma disruptiva sobre a qual se faz sua estreia.
Political dispute in Poland in the eyes of Facebook slacktivists
Authors: Pawlak Piotr
Published: June 2021

This text is a report from research on selected aspects of the crisis of democracy in Poland. The problem of the analysis focuses on questions about the attitude of the participants in the political dispute towards opponents, the possibility (and method) of reaching an agreement and the assessment of the situation. I chose the area of analysis considering social media a transparent platform for political dispute (especially during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic). The essence of the research was to find respondents clearly involved in the political dispute. I choose Facebook, among the other things, because this platform creates a place of many actively operating thematic groups which gathers supporters of particular political options. This fact facilitate reaching respondents with the preferred characteristics. The survey was conducted in the period 13/12/2020 to 25/01/2021 on the basis of the author’s form consisting of 15 questions. The research sample consists of 220 respondents: 126 women and 94 men aged 14 to 72 years old. Appropriately for the nature of the variables and the sample size, the contingency coefficient and the Kruskal-Wallis test were calculated, together with the statistical significance of the obtained results. All analyzes were performed on the basis of SPSS software version 26 and Microsoft Excel.

Authors: Tomaszewska-Michalak Magdalena
Published: June 2021

Celem artykułu jest analiza wszechobecnego współcześnie pojęcia fake news oraz jego potencjalnego wpływu na funkcjonowanie państw demokratycznych. Pierwsza część tekstu traktuje o problemie definicyjnym związanym z terminem fake news. W artykule wskazane zostało, że nie istnieje obecnie zgoda na wspólną definicję zjawiska fake news oraz że pojęcie to dotyczyć może zarówno treści pisanych, jak i zamieszczanych zdjęć czy filmów. Ponadto w tekście podjęta została próba analizy zagrożeń, jakie niesie za sobą tworzenie oraz dystrybuowanie treści dezinformacyjnych. Mogą one wpływać zarówno na pojedynczych obywateli, jak i na całe społeczeństwa (np. w ramach procesów wyborczych). W drugiej części artykułu autorka skupia się na wskazaniu rozwiązań, jakie obecnie proponuje się w celu przeciwdziałania fake news, a więc na wdrażaniu kampanii edukacyjnych na temat dezinformacji oraz na proponowaniu dobrych praktyk w tym zakresie. Tekst ukazuje również najbardziej radykalną formę zwalczania fake news, jaką jest wdrażanie sankcji karnych za propagowanie treści dezinformujących. W artykule podkreślone zostało, że ostatni z wymienionych sposobów walki z fake news może nieść za sobą zagrożenie dla demokracji, a zwłaszcza dla prawa do wolności słowa. W celu napisania artykułu posłużono się metodami badań teoretycznych, a zwłaszcza: analizą i syntezą oraz metodami wnioskowania.
Lability in Old English Verbs: Chronological and Textual Distribution
Authors: García García Luisa , Ruiz Narbona Esaúl
Published: June 2021

Present-Day English has an unusually high number of labile verbs, such as melt or burn, both cross-linguistically and with respect to genetically related languages. Comparison among early Germanic languages has allowed researchers to detect an incipient favouring of labile coding already in Old English, where it is more frequent than in any other language of this group (Hermodsson 1952) and replaces causative coding in a considerable proportion of former causative verb pairs (van Gelderen 2011; García García 2020). This article attempts to map the chronological and textual distribution of labile verbs between the seventh and the eleventh centuries CE in order to explore how lability develops throughout the Old English period. Old English labile verbs coming from Germanic causative oppositions are the sample on which we base our study. The choice ensures that the verbs in question were originally not labile and underwent a process of labilization in (pre-)Old English. Some of the questions addressed in the study are: Can a tendency towards labilization in Old English be confirmed by internal evidence, as it arguably can by external comparison with other Germanic languages? Can an increase in lability be detected in English before French influence was effective? Does it show any restrictions by genre or individual text?
Material advancement in tissue-engineered nerve conduit
Authors: Dai Wufei , Yang Yating , Yang Yumin , Liu Wei
Published: June 2021

Peripheral nerve injuries resulting from various traumatic events can cause mobility problems and sensory impairment, jeopardizing patients’ life quality and bringing serious economic burdens. Due to the shortcomings of autologous nerve grafts, such as limited tissue sources, unmatched size, and loss of innervation at the donor site, tissue-engineered nerve grafts using both natural and synthetic materials have been employed in the treatment of peripheral nerve defect and to promote nerve regeneration. Apart from traditional advantages such as good biocompatibility and controllable degradation, the development of fabrication technology and the advancement in material science have endowed tissue-engineered nerve conduits with upgraded properties such as biomimetic surface topography, extracellular matrix components, neurotrophic factors, and cell seeding, or a conduit with micropores on the surface for substance exchange and/or with fillers inside for microenvironment simulation. This article reviews recent progress in the biomaterials employed in fabricating tissue-engineered nerve conduits, in vitro characterization, and their applications in nerve repair in animal studies as well as in clinical trials.
Suppression of hyperinsulinemia restores growth hormone secretion and metabolism in obese mice
Authors: Huang Zhengxiang , Lu Xuehan , Huang Lili , Chen Yang , Zhang Chunhong , Veldhuis Johannes D , Chen Chen
Published: June 2021

The well-balanced secretion between insulin and growth hormone (GH) is essential in regulating substrate metabolism, energy metabolism, and body composition. High insulin and low GH levels are often observed in obesity, contributing to reduced energy expenditure and further fat accumulation. Although suppression of hyperinsulinemia is proposed as a treatment for obesity, changes in GH secretion and energy metabolism following this treatment are not thoroughly studied. This leaves unexplained observations, such as unchanged lean mass following insulin reduction. In this study, high-fat diet-induced obese (DIO) and normal chow-fed lean mice on a C57BL/6J background were treated for 7 weeks with diazoxide (1250 mg/kg in food), a KATP channel opener that suppressed insulin secretion. Diazoxide treatment for 10 days was sufficient to increase pulsatile GH secretion in DIO mice before any significant body weight change. The restored insulin-GH balance in DIO mice was followed by improvement in substrate and energy metabolism in a prolonged treatment period (4–6 weeks), including reduced fat mass, increased lipid oxidation and energy expenditure, as well as improved insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility. These metabolic benefits occurred along with the changes in the expression level of genes regulated by the insulin-GH balance. When applying diazoxide to normal chow-fed normoinsulinemic lean mice, none of the above metabolic effects was observed, suggesting that the metabolic changes following diazoxide treatment were mediated through the suppression of hyperinsulinemia. These results suggest that suppression of hyperinsulinemia by diazoxide restores GH secretion and improves substrate and energy metabolism in DIO mice.

Lenguaje y plasticidad. En torno a los fundamentos estéticos de Vicente Huidobro
Authors: González Araneda Sergio
Published: June 2021

Nos proponemos reflexionar en torno a la estética creacionista de Vicente Huidobro, a la luz de dos nociones fundamentales: el lenguaje y su cualidad de plasticidad. Para ello, delimitaremos una comprensión de arte donde se inscribe la producción artística de Huidobro, centrándonos en el tratamiento que Morris Weitz da a la categoría de Arte. Así dilucidaremos la relación que existe entre lenguaje y su plasticidad gramatical y significativa, a la vez que revisaremos el modo en que esta relación constituirá al poeta, la poesía y el sentido en que esta se vincula con el mundo.
Allele frequencies of Ppd-D1a, Ppd-B1a, and Ppd-B1c of photoperiodic sensitivity genes in spring bread wheat varieties (Triticum aestivum L.) of various origin
Authors: Balashova I. , Fait V.
Published: June 2021

Aim. To identify and evaluate allele frequencies of Ppd-D1a, Ppd-B1a, Ppd-B1c and Ppd-1 of the genotypes of spring
bread wheat varieties from various climatic zones. Methods. DNA isolation, allele-specific PCR, electrophoresis in
agarose and polyacrylamide gel, statistical analysis. Results. 137 varieties of spring bread wheat of various origin
were detected to identify Ppd-1 genotypes of Ppd-D1a, Ppd-B1a and Ppd-B1c allele carriers. The results for the total
sampling of the varieties under investigation and the sampling of Asian varieties yielded six different Ppd-1 genotypes
in each. As for samplings of other regions, there were from two (Mexico) to four (Europe, the USA, Canada, Ukraine)
Ppd-1 genotypes. In the total sampling of varieties, there was a high incidence (20.5 %) of genotypes, dominant only
in allele Ppd-D1a, varying from 0 (Russia) to 85.0 % (Mexico). The incidence of the genotypes with monogenically
dominant Ppd-B1a (7.3 %) or Ppd-B1c (5.1 %) in the total sampling, was considerably lower. These genotypes were
most common for the sampling of the varieties from the USA and Canada (25.0 and 16.7 % respectively). Digenically
dominant Ppd-D1a Ppd-B1a genotypes were found in the total sampling with relatively low incidence (7.3 %), and
were notable for the varieties from Asia (33.4 %), Mexico (15.0 %), Ukraine (13.1 %), and Europe (3.1 %). The di
genically dominant genotype Ppd-D1a Ppd-B1с was found only in the Japanese variety Konosu-25. Gene Ppd-A1 was
present in all the spring varieties under investigation in its recessive state. Conclusions. Out of three dominant alleles
in the studied sampling, the highest incidence was noted for allele Ppd-D1a (28.5 %). All the varieties from Mexico,
present in the set, carry this allele. At the same time, it was not found in any variety from Russia. Allele Ppd-B1a was
detected in the varieties from all the regions with the incidence of 7.7 (Russia) – 44.4 % (Asia). Allele Ppd-B1c was
sporadically present in the varieties from Russia, Ukraine, the USA, Japan, and Brazil, and its incidence in the total
sampling was insignificant (5.8 %). The varieties, identified by the allelic status of Ppd-1 genes, may be used as donors
for selection and determination of the influence of alleles for each gene by the development rate and related economically valuable traits of bread wheat.
ROBUST DIRECT FIELD ORIENTED CONTROL OF INDUCTION GENERATOR

A novel and robust field oriented vector control method for standalone induction generators (IG) is presented. The proposed controller exploits the concept of direct field orientation and provides asymptotic rotor flux modulus and DC-link voltage regulations when a DC-load is constant or slowly varying. Flux subsystem, designed using Lyapunov’s second method, has, in contrast to standard structures, closed loop properties and therefore is robust with respect to rotor resistance variations. A decomposition approach on the base of the two-time scale separation of the voltage and torque current dynamics is used for design of the voltage subsystem. The feedback linearizing voltage controller is designed using a steady state IG power balance equation. The resulting quasi-linear dynamics of the voltage control loop allows use of simple controllers tuning procedure and provides an improved dynamic performance for variable speed and flux operation. Results of a comparative experimental study with standard indirect field oriented control are presented. In contrast to existing solutions, the designed controller provides system performances stabilization when speed and flux are varying. It is experimentally shown that a robust field oriented controller ensures robust flux regulation and robust stabilization of the torque current dynamics leading to improved energy efficiency of the electromechanical conversion process. The proposed controller is suitable for energy generation systems with variable speed operation. References 18, figures 8.

Diseño y política. Prácticas de agenciamiento y transformación social
Authors: Múnera Barrios María Ginette
Published: June 2021

Se quiere salir del centro de una actividad tradicionalmente entendida como «disciplina centrada en los objetos» para expandir este horizonte hacia algunos de los fenómenos contemporáneos que se desprenden de algunas de las prácticas del diseño, como es el caso de las prácticas sociales en diseño. Desde aquí se pretende revisar algunos de los conceptos que se derivan de la actividad propia de la disciplina, como sucede con las nociones de diseño y política1. En el presente artículo se comprende que el diseño es ante todo una actividad y, por lo tanto, una «práctica creativa, comunicativa, estética y política», ya que es una actividad comunitaria y participativa. Se hará énfasis en cuatro puntos claves para llegar a esta última afirmación: el primero procurará explorar el diseño como disciplina; en un segundo momento se revisará el diseño como práctica creativa, para luego retomar el diseño como actividad. De este modo, se mostrará la innegable relación entre el diseño como una práctica comunicativa, estética y política. En un tercer momento, la idea será precisar algunos conceptos, los cuales servirán para enunciar a qué nos referimos con prácticas sociales o prácticas comunitarias en diseño. Por último, a manera de conclusión, se argumentará, desde algunas teorías contemporáneas, cómo el diseño participa como agenciamiento político y transformador de lo social. Todo lo anterior a la luz de algunos teóricos del diseño y filósofos como Arendt, Heidegger, Rancière, entre otros.
Diseño de muebles vs. columnas y un caso para la optimización del espacio de oficinas en instituciones del Estado colombiano
Authors: Puentes Lagos David Ernesto , Mateus Castillo Sandra Lucía , Bello Cárdenas Angie Paola
Published: June 2021

El presente artículo es un estudio de caso en el que se identifican los problemas entre el espacio y el mobiliario. El problema surge de una interventoría para remodelar arquitectónicamente una entidad del Estado en el año 2017. Los datos obtenidos acá sirven de referencia para el Estado y los diseñadores de espacios públicos. Se privilegian las conclusiones surgidas de interacciones entre el diseño espacial y diseño de muebles. Se evita presentar un proyecto tradicional interiorista del sector privado: allí no hay términos de referencia, ni leyes estatales que limitan las decisiones. El proyecto se ejecutó en cinco etapas: en la primera, el anteproyecto, se elaboraron dos alternativas de diseño; en la segunda, el proyecto final, se seleccionó el diseño definitivo con la entrega de planos detallado; en la tercera etapa, la obra civil, se realizaron procedimientos de desmonte, mampostería y pisos; en la cuarta etapa, cableado estructural, se instaló todo el sistema eléctrico; finalmente, en la etapa de mobiliario, se compraron e instalaron puestos de oficina. Como metodología, se revisó la documentación del proyecto buscando los problemas y procedimientos de la interventoría con la intención de solucionar las interacciones del espacio y del mobiliario. Como resultados, se identificó la poca flexibilidad del mobiliario para adaptarse a los espacios arquitectónicos. La incompatibilidad del cableado, el sistema estructural del edificio y el sistema de mobiliario ocasionó pérdidas significativas de área y generó espacios arquitectónicos no usados. Hubo problemas para ubicar muebles debido a dimensiones entre columnas que impidieron la organización modular. Por último, el concepto estético de la entidad limitó una optimización del espacio.
Reflexiones sobre el método en economía desde la teoría del consumo
Authors: Casas Hernández Daniel Ricardo , Pico Bonilla Claudia Milena
Published: June 2021

El presente documento reflexiona sobre el uso del método inductivo y deductivo en el análisis del consumo que realizaron dos autores del siglo XIX: Thorstein Veblen   y   Carl   Menger,   respectivamente.   Se   plantea   que   en   el   debate metodológico del siglo XIX cobró poca relevancia el ejercicio de constatación empírica  de  planteamientos  teóricos  a  raíz  de  la  conciencia  del  carácter limitado de la teoría. Sobre esta base, las teorías del consumo se construyeron a partir  de  propuestas  analíticas  propias  del  razonamiento  deductivo  sobre  tres premisas apriorísticas básicas: individuo asocial, insaciabilidad y orientación a los   bienes. Sin embargo, este programa de investigación se ha degenerado en el sentido de Lakatos por los cuestionamientos de Veblen, Galbraith, Keynes y Akerman   entre  otros.   De  ahí  que  para  favorecer   la  construcción  de  un programa de investigación progresivo en términos metodológicos y empíricos sea necesaria la integración de los métodos deductivo e inductivo en economía y el avance hacia presupuestos teóricos consistentes con realidades históricas cambiantes.

The Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) is one of the main data sources in the United States for assessing and analyzing differences in wealth and financial well-being across families. In recent years, the SCF estimates of racial and ethnic wealth gaps have garnered considerable attention, in part because these disparities are so large and persistent.
POWER AND PUNISHMENT IN M. FOUCAULT’S GENEALOGICAL PROJECT
Authors:   Perm State Agrarian and Technological University named after D.N. Pryanishnikova, Ryazanov Ivan V.
Published: June 2021

The article proposes analytical reconstruction of the French philosopher and historian M. Foucault’s interpretation strategy related to the genealogical project The History of Punishment. The object of cognition marginalization is content moment of this reconstruction, as contributing to both the transformation of the research subject field and the genealogical identification of the object. There are defined the rules of reconstruction, contributing to the diffusion of the methodological approach to power in the genealogy of M. Foucault. The article substantiates the position that the use of some individual rules of reconstruction cannot lead to methodological unity in the genealogical project due to the marginal-positive identification of the object and the structure of The History of Punishment. Comparison of J. Deleuze’s functional analysis and M. Foucault’s genealogical approach to the problem of power points to the diffusion of the method, which is unable to localize its object in the social space. In many ways, this will be facilitated by the use of the visual model as an epistemological one, which is traditional for Foucault’s research. All the dynamic and structural characteristics that are used in Foucault’s genealogy to analyze the concept of Microphysics of power will be reduced to marginal anthropology. In the genealogical period of the French thinker’s work, marginal anthropology is regarded as a way of constructing genealogical reality. Genealogical description as a method of a marginal object description is viewed as a consequence of methodological diffusion. The phenomenon of disciplinary power is considered as a marginal construction, deriving the concept of normal-abnormal from the totality of disciplinary practices, structuring the European society. M. Foucault’s focus on marginal anthropology will serves as a basis for the transition to The History of Sexuality project.
PETER VAN INWAGEN’S FIVE THESES OF BEING AND HIS CONTROVERSY WITH THE EXISTENTIALPHENOMENOLOGICAL TRADITION
Authors:   Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B.N. Yeltsin, Gusev Maxim A.
Published: June 2021

The article considers P. van Inwagen’s theses about being, including the thesis «being is not an activity». In formulating that Inwagen argues with the existential-phenomenological tradition. The article aims to investigate the causes of the misunderstanding between Inwagen and the existential-phenomenological tradition. It is shown that Inwagen treats this tradition as if it were an «objectivist» approach, just like the analytic tradition but presenting another answer to Inwagen’s meta-ontological question. Ignoring the radical difference between the existential-phenomenological approach and the analytical, «objectivistic» approach leads Inwagen to misunderstanding of Heidegger’s statements about being. From the «objectivist» analytical standpoint, the question of existence has nothing to do with the course of our experience, with fact something has been given to us, or with giving meaning to something, etc. That is why Inwagen wonders how existence can be associated with an «activity» at all. For the same reason, Inwagen does not understand why the existential-phenomenological tradition’s adherents talk about some differences in such «activities». From Inwagen’s point of view, all the differences lie in the «nature» of things, not in being. From the «objectivist» point of view, it seems exactly like that, because it is impossible to understand «from the outside», for example, the convergence of awareness and being-in-the-world. Within Inwagen’s objectivist position, Heidegger’s philosophy can only be comprehended as anthropology or psychology, which are studies limited to the topic of human beings or their inner world. The article concludes that although one can deny the phenomenological approach in general, but it is possible to show from the inside of that approach that what Heidegger says in his philosophy is, firstly, meaningful and, secondly, relates to ontology and not to anthropology or psychology.

The most important condition for the successful innovative development in Russia is acceptance of the introduced reforms by the population and their understanding that these transformations entail improvement of the quality of life and growth in the level of social well-being. The quality and accessibility of social services are important components of social welfare. The system of social services currently existing in our country needs modernization which would include increasing the availability of social services, development of competition for the quality of their provision and extension of the range of services rendered to citizens. The subject matter under research in this paper is mechanisms and barriers of the social service system modernization in the context of the principal directions of Russia’s innovative development. There appear to be two main mechanisms of modernization: inclusion in the social services system of such entities as socially oriented non-profit organizations and development of social entrepreneurship that could extend the range of social services available to the population and compete for the quality of their provision. Special attention is paid to the analysis of interaction between governmental and non-governmental social service entities. The empirical research combines quantitative and qualitative methodology, since a number of phenomena (e.g. social entrepreneurship) represent an exception rather than a rule, and therefore they are of particular interest. Among the main barriers to the modernization of the social service system, there are both administrative barriers and the ideas and beliefs prevailing among the population (distrust of NGOs; low level of awareness of social entrepreneurship; reluctance of managers to register their organizations as providers of social services; low civil activity of the population in the regions of the Republic; concentration of non-governmental social service entities in the territory of the Petrozavodsk city, with the problem of access to social services being most acute in rural areas).
Black Normativity and Burdened Individualism
Authors: Revare Graham
Published: June 2021

The Walt Disney Company has a marred past; the products that powered its explosive growth to an entertainment conglomerate depicted grossly racist stereotypes. Seeking to wash its hands of this controversial past, Disney released The Princess and the Frog (TPF), its first film featuring a Black protagonist.

The film deserves recognition for its efforts to bring representation to Black Americans. But lurking in Disney’s redemption project is a noticeable revisionist whitewashing of American history. The film’s plot begins when Tiana, short on money and seeking to rescue her incipient dream to open a restaurant, accepts a prince-transmuted-frog’s offer to reward her for kissing him. When she compromises her unyielding adherence to “hard work,” she transforms into a frog. The film’s very narrative structure is built on what Saidiya Hartman labels “burdened individualism,” a discourse that demands Black Americans ceaselessly pursue market ascendency while stripping them of the tools to do so.

Reopening strategies are crucial to balance efforts of economic revitalization and bringing back a sense of normalcy while mitigating outbreaks and effectively flattening the infection curve. This paper proposes practical reopening, monitoring and testing strategies for institutions to reintroduce physical meetings based on SIR simulations run on a student friendship network collected pre-COVID-19. These serve as benchmarks to assess several testing strategies that can be applied in physical classes. Our simulations show that the best outbreak mitigation results are obtained with full knowledge of contact, but are also robust to non-compliance of students to new social interaction guidelines, simulated by partial knowledge of the interactions. These results are not only applicable to institutions but also for any organization or company wanting to navigate the COVID-19 ravaged world.

İlahi irade ile insan arasında ahlaki bir ilişki olan teklif, uygun yaratılış özelliklerine sahip olan insana yöneltilmiştir. Mükellefin akıl, irade ve güç gibi varoluşsal özelliklere sahip olması teklifin ontolojik gerekçesini oluşturmaktadır. Bu bağlamda Ebü’l-Muîn en-Nesefî, insanı ilâhî teklife muhatap bir özne olarak imkân, potansiyel ve kabiliyetleri açısından ele alarak imtihan gerçeğine dikkat çekmektedir. Ona göre insanın güzel bir sonuca ulaşmadan sadece yokluk için yaratılması hikmet açısından anlamsızdır. Nesefî, aklın doğru bilgiye ulaşmada önemli bir vasıta olarak iyi ve kötü değerleri tümel olarak kavradığını, ancak tikel anlamda ayrıntılı olarak bilemeyeceğini söylemektedir. Bu nedenle akla yardımcı olmak amacıyla tikel olan hususlarda peygamberin kılavuzluğuna ihtiyaç vardır. İlahi hikmetin bir gereği olarak peygamberler vasıtasıyla yapılan teklif, insanlar için övgüye değer güzel bir sonucun elde edilmesini amaçlamaktadır. Buna göre teklif hikmet içerisinde anlam kazanmakta, insana verilen özgürlüğün sonucu mükâfat veya ceza şeklinde ortaya çıkmaktadır. Böylece Nesefî’nin insanın ontolojik ve bilişsel yetileri ile yaratılış amacı arasındaki ilişkiyi dikkate alarak bütüncül bir yaklaşım sergilediği görülmektedir.

During machining occurring losses conduct into the machine tool and lead to deformations that im-pair the machining accuracy. Thus, high effort is invested into the compensation of thermo-elastic er-rors. One new approach is to use the information extractable from part programs in combination with CNC controller systems to forecast occurring losses in terms of a look ahead function. The method al-lows the evaluation of part programs with respect to its thermal influence on the machine tool. There-fore, the method is applied on selected part programs, resulting loss distributions are discussed in terms of their thermal impact, and potential follow-up strategies are stated.

Nowadays, the thermo-energetic design of a machine tool also includes the thermal stabilization of its machine components. In the past, thermal stability was irrefutable connected to minimizing the temperature gradient of machine tools by air conditioning the entire machine or even the factory hall. Today, thermal stability also defines minimal inhomogeneities in the temperature field of the machine tool due to higher energy efficiency requirements. Fluidic tempering systems of machine components offer considerable potential concerning the minimization of thermo-elastic displacements with acceptable energy demand. Hence, intelligent algorithms are required to combine tolerable geometric deviations with minimal energy effort. The scope of this paper is the integration of a demand-oriented fluidic temperature control system into a machine bed. The resulting multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) systems and varying boundary conditions are challenges, which are addressed. Therefore the paper compares two control approaches, a decentralized single-loop control and a multi-loop control by decoupling the control loops and especially focus on the distribution of the jointly used actuating variable, combined with the variation of different boundary conditions.

A large amount of the energy produced during grinding is converted into heat. Since not all of the heat can be dissipated by the cooling lubricant, thermally induced displacements in machine components occur, which has a negative influence on the component quality. The generation and distribution of heat is influenced by the change of the grinding wheel topography due to wear.Therefore, the wear mechanisms of grains were identified and quantified and their effect on heat generation was investigated. For this purpose, creep feed grinding investigations on bearing steel were conducted with electroplated CBN grinding wheels with different grain specifications.

In most sectors of today’s industry, there is the requirement to manufacture work pieces with accuracy in micron range. However, maintaining this accuracy can be considerably impeded by thermally induced displacements which arise in the production process. Thermally induced errors cause large parts of residual machining errors on modern machine tools. Using climate control systems for whole workshops can counteract these errors. Yet, this method is extremely cost and energy intensive. To increase machine accuracy and meet the industrial demands in a more efficient way, research offers various methods to minimize this error. These methods differ greatly in their approaches and requirements. Some intervene in the machine structure, while others are based on thermomechanical models and need to be integrated into the software of the control system as correction algorithms. Since machine tools also vary in their kinematic structure and complexity, it is difficult for potential users to select suitable solutions and estimate the effort required to implement them with the available resources. This paper presents a systematization and taxonomy of such methods, which was elaborated based on solutions developed in the project CRC/TR 96. By conducting semi-structured expert interviews, the functional principle, prerequisites and resources required for the application of each solution were recorded, categorized and evaluated in terms of their effort. Based on the presented systematization, it is possible to compare these different methods and evaluate them regarding their implementation effort and flexibility. This is the first step towards a user-specific evaluation of these methods in the future and towards facilitating the transfer of this fundamental research into industrial application.
