"Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'yla İlişkileri Bağlamında Voyvodalıklardan Modern Romanya'ya: Osmanlı-Romanya Diplomatik İlişkileri (1878-1908)"
Authors: BEDİR Ömer
Published: December 2020

Dobruca, Eflak ve Boğdan dört asırdan uzun bir süre boyunca Osmanlı devleti tarafından yönetilmiştir. Halkının çoğunluğu Türk ve Müslümanlardan oluşan Dobruca doğrudan payitahta bağlı bir bölge olarak Müslüman-Türk yöneticiler eliyle idare edilmiş; ancak halkı Hristiyan Ortodoks mezhebine mensup olan Eflak ve Boğdan ise içişlerinde serbest, dışişlerinde Osmanlı'ya bağlı birimler olarak payitaht tarafından atanan yerli voyvodalar eliyle yönetilmiştir. Osmanlı ve Rusya arasında 1710-1711 yıllarında gerçekleşen Prut savaşı sırasında Eflak ve Boğdan voyvodalarının Ruslar'la işbirliği yaptıklarının anlaşılması üzerine Osmanlı devleti yerel voyvodalar yerine Fenerli Rumları Eflak ve Boğdan'a yönetici olarak atamaya karar vermiştir. Böylelikle, Eflak ve Boğdan'da Feneryot sistemi denilen Ortodoksluk mezhebine mensup Fenerli Rum yöneticilerin devri başlamıştır.

1877-1878 Osmanlı-Rus savaşı (93 Harbi) sonrasında imzalanan Berlin Anlaşması'yla Romanya, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'ndan bağımsızlığını kazanmış ve Dobruca'nın kuzeyi, Eflak'ın tamamı ve Boğdan'ın batısı yeni kurulan Romanya devletinin sınırları içerisinde kalmıştır.

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu, yüzyıllar boyunca yönettiği Romanya'yla bağımsızlığı sonrasında yeni bir ilişki biçimine geçmek durumunda kalmıştır. Romanya'nın bağımsızlığını kazanmasıyla birlikte modern anlamda Osmanlı-Romanya diplomatik ilişkileri başlamıştır. İkili diplomatik ilişkilerde, Bükreş'e atanacak Osmanlı sefirinin dini kimliği ve temsil düzeyi yeni kurulan Romanya açısından en önemli konu olarak ön plana çıkmıştır. Osmanlı devleti bakımından ise Jön Türkler'in Romanya sınırları içinde yürüttükleri muhalif siyasi propaganda faaliyetlerinin engellenmesi; Romanya sınırları içerisinde kalan Müslüman-Türk azınlığın haklarının korunması ve bu bağlamda Anadolu'ya yönelik artan göçler ikili diplomatik ilişkilerde başlıca meseleler olarak belirginleşmektedir.

The aim of this study was to validate the Serbian adaptation of the Collett-Lester Fear of Death Scale–Revised (CLFODS-R). On a sample comprised of 263 participants (66% females), aged between 18 and 65 years, along with CLFODS-R, Big Five Plus Two-70 and PANAS were applied. Results support originally proposed factor structure of the scale, with differentiation of four dimensions: fear of death of self, fear of dying of self, fear of death of others, and fear of dying of others. All four dimensions significantly correlate with negative affect and neuroticism, while correlations with positive affect and extraversion are not significant, supporting the validity of the scale. Furthermore, females show higher scores on all dimensions, while older and participants with experience of the death of a close person show a lower fear of death in some of its aspects. The results suggested that the Serbian adaptation of CLFODS-R is a valid and reliable measure, and that it may find application in further examinations of fear of death.

From Flatworms to Humans: Demonstration of Learning Principles Using Activities Developed by the Laboratory of Comparative Psychology and Behavioral Biology – Additional Exercises
Authors: Abramson Charles I.
Published: December 2020

Since the mid-1990s, the Laboratory of Comparative Psychology and Behavioral Biology at Oklahoma State University has developed a number of exercises appropriate for classroom use to demonstrate principles of learning and other forms of behavior. These activities have primarily focused on the use of invertebrates such as planarians, houseflies, earthworms, and honey bees. We have also developed exercises using fish based on an inexpensive apparatus called the “Fish Stick.” Other exercises to be discussed are “Salivary Conditioning in Humans;” “Project “Petscope” which turns local pet stores into animal behavior research centers; “Prey Preferences in Snakes”; and “Correspondence in the Classroom” which helps students learn to write letters to scientists in the field of learning research. These various teaching activities are summarized, and the advantages and limitations are discussed. Additional material developed since 2011 is included. This material includes a low cost microcontroller, history of comparative psychology projects, and additional animal exercises.

Published: December 2020

The principles of the comparative analysis of behavior are as relevant now as it was in the time of Charles Darwin, George Romanes, and C. Lloyd Morgan. This article presents class exercises using animal and human action figures to provide students with hands-on experience demonstrating the importance of such principles and issues as classification, identification of independent and dependent variables, systematic variation, differences between homologies and analogies, the value of making valid comparisons, the importance of ethics, and the role of environmental and subject variables in the interpretation of species differences. Students are presented with a prescribed sequence of action figures differing in, for example, gender, race, and species. Initially, a single figure is presented, and students asked to consider various questions. A second figure is added which they must compare to the first. A third figure is subsequently presented and so on until the end of the exercise. The figures we have used include men, women, children, rats, pigeons, elephants, and assorted invertebrates. Students report that the exercise is effective in helping them acquire skills in experimental design and issues related to conducting comparisons. They also report that the exercise is difficult because it tests their assumptions at each level of comparison.

Berteologi Dalam Konteks Pandemi Covid 19: Upaya Mengembangkan Etika Teologis Dalam Relasi Keadilan Dan Keharmonisan Dengan Alam
Authors:   Universitas Methodist Indonesia, Sibarani Apriani
Published: December 2020

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is a global problem for humans today. There are some hypotheses and analyses regarding the cause of the pandemic, including the ecological problem (environmental damage) which is considered as one of the biggest contributing factors. The natural imbalance and environmental damage are an undeniable reality in today’s life. The theological understanding of humans as imago Dei who has the right to conquer and control nature exacerbates the ecological problems and increases humans’ disharmony with nature. This paper invites the readers to understand the context of this pandemic as an effort to reflect on discriminatory theological views of nature which lead to irresponsible human attitudes and behaviors. In this regard, this paper offers a theological understanding which recognizes relational justice and harmony with nature. This paper also provides an explanation of the relation between COVID-19 and ecological issues, as well as theological views that trigger humans’ destructive attitudes and behaviors towards nature. Moreover, this paper offers solutions to transform the crisis through theological paradigms which become theological ethics, in order to establish the relation between justice and harmony with nature.

Published: December 2020

Hygienic care of lingua plicata is of particular relevance, since the degree of microbial contamination of the tongue folds is a key factor in initiation and progression of non-specific glottitises. The aim of the work was to study the effectiveness of hygienic modes of tongue care using "Albadent" balm-rinse in patients having a fissured tongue. Three subgroups of patients were included in the study; patients of the 1st subgroup had their tongues treated with a toothbrush pad, patients of the 2nd subgroup rinsed it with Albadent balm twice, and patients of the 3rd subgroup treated their tongues twice with an irrigator with Albadent balm solution. A comparative assessment of care regimens showed that in patients of the 1st subgroup the hygienic condition of the tongue improved by 2.7 times, and the prevalence of Candida albicans decreased twice. The patients reported unpleasant «scratching» sensations in the tongue after its mechanical treatment. In patients of the 2nd subgroup, the depth of the folds decreased, and hyperemia in the bottom of the folds decreased in half of the observed patients. The hygienic condition of the tongue improved by 2.2 times, and the prevalence of Candida albicans decreased by 2.5 times. Patients reported a pleasant freshness sensation in the tongue after treatment, continuing after spitting for 60-90 minutes. In patients of the 3rd subgroup, the depth of the folds changed insignificantly in the direction of decrease, and hyperemia of the bottom was not detected. The hygienic condition of the tongue improved twice, and the prevalence of Candida albicans decreased by 2 times. Patients reported a pleasant freshness sensation in the tongue after rinsing, continuing after spitting for 40–60 minutes.

Published: December 2020

Typhoid fever and paratyphoids are still a widespread topical problem, especially in connection with the possibility of imported cases from regions that are epidemically disadvantaged by the disease. The current relevance of typhoid fever problem in the Russian Federation is determined by its persistent sporadic morbidity. Reduced control over the sanitary and hygienic state of the environment, deterioration of the quality of water treatment in water supply and sewerage systems, and a number of other reasons can still result in an increase in the number of patients with typhoid-paratyphoid diseases. At the same time, a mild and subtle course of typhoid fever is a common cause of late disease diagnosis and late start of the patient's treatment. Methods of modern diagnosis and treatment of typhoid-paratyphoid disease are considered. The article describes a case of typhoid fever that was diagnosed in the Chuvash Republic in 2017 after a long period of epidemiological welfare. The aim of the study is to analyze an imported case of typhoid fever and characterize the current course of the disease in the period of sporadic morbidity. A retrospective analysis of the patient's history of typhoid fever was performed. The diagnosis was made on the basis of clinical, epidemiological and laboratory data. To confirm the diagnosis of typhoid fever, bacteriological methods to study blood, urine and feces were used. The study of this female patient's medical history showed that there were no typical symptoms characteristic of typhoid fever: subcutaneous fat was moderately expressed, on palpation submandibular lymph nodes were painless, mobile, of soft-elastic consistency up to 0.6 cm. Nasal breathing was not disturbed, breathing was vesicular, the RR was 16 movements per 1 min., heart tones were muted, rhythmic, the heart rate was 100 beats / min, BP – 120/75 mm Hg, temperature – 39°C. The tongue was dry, coated with a grayish-brown plaque with tooth marks on the edges. The pharynx was moderately hyperemic. The stomach was soft, painless, the liver and the spleen were not enlarged, Padalka’s symptom was negative. The patient reported fecal excretion with a tendency to constipation. There was no CVA tenderness on both sides. Thus, it is difficult to make a diagnosis of typhoid fever with sporadic morbidity. Modern clinical presentation of typhoid fever in moderate severity differs from the classic one. The patient had an atypical course of typhoid fever. Typhoid status was absent. The cutaneous coverings were normal, there was no rash. There was no congestive splenomegaly or Padalka's symptoms. No complications or relapses developed. The diagnosis was made only when the pathogen was seeded from the blood (hemoculture) and basing on clear epidemiological data.

An Investigation on Recycling of Blanket Trimmings Through Needle-punched Nonwovens
Authors: ARIN Gonca , TERCAN Mevlüt
Published: December 2020

Utilization of recycled fibers in nonwovens has been an attractive issue for researchers considering environmental and economic benefits. In this study blanket trimmings and mechanically recycled fibers were blended and softly needle-punched to be used as interlayers of traditional needle-punched nonwovens. The outer layers from polypropylene (at four different mass per unit areas), from recycled polyester (at four different mass per unit areas), from mechanically recycled fibers (at three mass per unit areas) and the control groups were produced by classical needle-punching at two needle-punch densities. The recycled interlayers consisting of blanket trimmings and mechanically recycled fibers and are then fixed by needle-punching again, between the two twin layers of needle-punched nonwovens of those three types of raw materials. Control groups did not include the recycled interlayers. Hence, three layered end products were obtained. Tensile characteristics of the end products were evaluated in terms inter layer ratio of the end products, raw material type of outer layers and needle-punching density through standard test methods. The results were statistically analyzed in SPSS 23.0-One way ANOVA. In the conclusion, blanket trimmings were successfully entangled to the end products as interlayers and it was observed that the strength of the nonwovens decrease with the higher recycled interlayer ratio and increase with needle-punch density.
Monitoring of Burn Damage Occurrence under Different Grinding Conditions Using Acoustic Emission
Authors: YEŞİLYURT İsa , BAKIR Onur
Published: December 2020

This paper presents the effects of the operating conditions (i.e. cutting speed and the amount of infeed) in grinding on the occurrence of thermal damage to the workpiece. The paper commences with a brief background to the analysis methods. Firstly, the AE signals detected under different operating conditions are analysed in time and frequency domains. It has been found that an increase in cutting speed or feed rate increases the strength of AE activity which is clearly reflected by the statistical parameter. Moreover, the cutting speed rather than the feed rate is more influential on the occurrence of burn damage. When the cutting speed is increased, the workpiece has been damaged severely and the AE content around 86kHz is significantly reduced.

Kirchenpaueria halecioides: a non-native hydroid in the coast of Buenos Aires, Argentina
Authors: Genzano Gabriel , Meretta Pablo
Published: December 2020

Hydroid colonies are among the groups frequently carried and introduced by human actions. Many species have been successfully transported as fouling organisms on ship hulls or in ballast water (pelagic stages) and the sea harbours appear as the places with high probability to detect exotic species. During routinely SCUBA diving conducted in Mar del Plata Harbour, Argentina (38°08´S – 57°31´W; May 2005, December 2006, March 2007, and December 2016) clumps of a plumularid were photographed and collected. Hydroid colonies were identified as Kirchenpaueria halecioides, a species frequently reported in tropical and subtropical water from the southwestern Atlantic, Brazil. Records of mature colonies in 2006 and 2016 suggest local reproduction of this non-native species. Monitoring will be necessary in order to analyse if species colonize neighbouring areas or remain confined to the port area.
ESTADO E DIREITO:
Authors: Costa Caetano Ernesto da Fonseca
Published: December 2020

Este artigo propõe-se a analisar o papel do juiz no Século XXI e, em especial, seus novos desafios advindos da judicialização da política, fenômeno que transfere para o Poder Judiciário as macro decisões fundamentais do Estado brasileiro. Na esteira do pensamento contemporâneo pós-positivista, demonstra-se a necessidade de aproximação dos juízes e tribunais com a política, notadamente o Supremo Tribunal Federal, enquanto guardião da Constituição. Em tempos de neoconstitucionalismo, a reaproximação entre a ética e o direito é o novo imperativo do direito constitucional, logo, não há mais espaço para o isolamento autopoiético do magistrado em relação à sociedade, muito ao contrário, o poder judiciário deve estar aberto a outros fluxos epistemológicos advindos da filosofia, da geopolítica, da ciência política e outras. Destarte, urge readaptar os tribunais aos novos tempos e reorientar os magistrados ao estudo interdisciplinar, abandonando-se a figura do juiz-máquina e sua aplicação mecânica da lei, pela do juiz-cidadão e sua aplicação axiológica da lei.

Pretende-se, apontar ações cuja implementação poderia contribuir para solucionar a gestão da verba educacional pública, a formação permanente de professores, o atendimento das promessas das campanhas políticas e o cumprimento das leis e dos programas inseridos nos Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (PCN).
AS TECNOLOGIAS AVANÇADAS COMO FATOR DE MUDANÇA DE PARADIGMAS NA EDUCAÇÃO E NO TRABALHO NO MUNDO MODERNO GLOBALIZADO
Authors: Dal Bello Julio Cesar R.
Published: December 2020

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar as Tecnologias da Informação (TI) avançadas que contribuem para o atual estágio evolutivo da humanidade e, em consequência, constituem-se num importante fator de mudança de paradigmas na educação e no trabalho no mundo moderno globalizado. Alicerçada nos desdobramentos posteriores às duas revoluções industriais, após o advento do computador, a humanidade teve dois momentos evolutivos recentes que trouxeram importantes transformações: em 1970, com a utilização maciça dos computadores pessoais em redes internas (intranet) pelas empresas, caracterizando uma Era da Informação; e em 1980, com o aparecimento da internet, entrando na Era do Conhecimento, quando, então, os indivíduos aprenderam a conviver com o mundo da tecnologia virtual, o ciberespaço. Essa revolução tecnológica em curso, facultada por esta convergência, e a consequente globalização da economia trouxeram, no seu bojo, mudanças de paradigmas, uma nova forma de estudar, trabalhar e viver. As Tecnologias da Informação, que englobam as áreas de telecomunicações, computação e informática, passaram a ser as grandes molas propulsoras da educação à distância e do teletrabalho em vista da possibilidade de reduzir substancialmente os deslocamentos para realização de estudos e tarefas. A automação e robotização das empresas e indústrias têm aprofundado, sistematicamente, a revolução tecnológica através da execução, pelas máquinas, das atividades que antes eram executadas pelos homens.

AMAZÔNIA LEGAL, COMO MANTÊ-LA BRASILEIRA:
Authors: Ramires Edson Henrique
Published: December 2020

Este trabalho tem como finalidade chamar a atenção da importância da Amazônia para o mundo e para a necessidade do interesse da sociedade brasileira no seu desenvolvimento, uma vez que, há muito tempo, as grandes potências mundiais têm voltado suas atenções para as potenciais riquezas minerais e vegetais da Amazônia. Este artigo discorre, inicialmente, sobre a fisiografia da região, as diversas tentativas de desenvolvimento e a organização do espaço político da Amazônia brasileira, os aspectos relativos à soberania sobre o território, abordando teorias geopolíticas existentes e os diplomas nacionais legais que regulam o assunto em relação à Amazônia. A seguir, são apresentados os óbices e as ameaças à soberania sobre a Amazônia Legal. Finalmente, são apresentadas algumas propostas do autor de ações políticas e estratégicas a serem adotadas pela sociedade brasileira para superar os óbices existentes na Amazônia e promover o desenvolvimento sustentável da região. Chega-se, por fim, à conclusão que a nação brasileira, por intermédio de suas elites, deve conscientizar-se acerca dos problemas que ameaçam a região amazônica, em boa medida fruto da ambição internacional. Para que o país exerça a plena soberania e promova o desenvolvimento da Amazônia Legal é necessário que o elemento fundamental seja a vontade nacional, com a significativa participação conjunta do Estado e da sociedade civil brasileira.

Published: December 2020

O objetivo deste artigo é examinar as razões que levaram ao abandono do planejamento estratégico nas relações internacionais, principalmente nos Estados em desenvolvimento como o Brasil. Relevante instrumento de ação e direção política, o planejamento estratégico passa a ser menos indicado como ferramenta de Estado e mais da grande empresa, à medida que a economia de livre mercado e a reforma institucional ganham espaço. Também é intuito do texto verificar quem se dedica aos estudos da estratégia.
CONSIDERAÇÕES PROPEDÊUTICAS SOBRE UNIDADE E IDENTIDADE NACIONAL
Authors: Santos Jorge Calvario dos
Published: December 2020

O texto busca apresentar a questão da cultura como elemento primordial para a identidade e unidade nacional. Isso porque cultura é o modo de vida de um povo. Apresenta a cultura como sendo a característica, a forma e a sustentação da sociedade nacional bem como a identidade e a unidade como sendo inerentes à cultura. Mostra a participação da cultura da economia e da política na constituição da sociedade e as tensões existentes entre elas. Mostra também que a unidade entre religião e cultura é extraordinariamente forte a ponto admitir que, de um ponto de vista, religião é cultura e, de outro ponto de vista, cultura é religião. O texto mostra que religião é a força criativa de uma cultura e quase toda cultura histórica tem sido inspirada e informada por uma grande religião.
BANCO CENTRAL:
Authors: Assis J. Carlos de
Published: December 2020

A expansão da democracia de cidadania ampliada no mundo deu à política fiscal uma dimensão que complementa a tradicional luta distributiva de renda no plano das empresas. É pela política fiscal que as sociedades escolhem, explicitamente, os financiadores e os beneficiários dos gastos públicos. Em contrapartida, a política monetária guarda sua tradicional característica de opacidade. Quando se abre sua caixa-preta, verifica-se que o locus da luta pela distribuição de renda nas sociedades contemporâneas já não é tanto a política fiscal, mas a política monetária, com seu caráter obscuro e antidemocrático. Foi a incapacidade de apreender esse movimento que fez com que os partidos progressistas da Europa e do resto do mundo não tenham se oposto ao neoliberalismo mas, na verdade, acabassem aderindo a ele, pelo menos até a crise de 2008, situação que ainda se arrasta.
LOGÍSTICA REVERSA E RECICLAGEM:
Authors: Videira Antonio Celente
Published: December 2020

O descarte excessivo dos produtos tecnológicos e o exponencial vazamento do lixo urbano vêm se tornando um problema dramático para a humanidade. Novas estratégias de gestão são encetadas, porém, têm-se demonstrado insubsistentes devido à crise decorrente da falta de espaços disponíveis para aterros, bem como o interesse por lucros maiores e retornos financeiros mais rápidos. Este artigo, além de abordar os problemas vigentes em relação ao despejo de toda espécie, propõe mudança de atitude por uma revolução comportamental individual, cujo resultado será a efetiva solução do impasse. A contaminação dos aspectos éticos de cidadania transformará a conduta do homem poluidor em um homem preservador. Essa é a proposta desta lavra, na sua essencialidade, quando procura alertar a Sociedade Empresarial e o Segmento Militar no robustecimento de suas atividades, para a garantia de um desenvolvimento nacional sustentável.
ASPECTOS NÃO CONVENCIONAIS PARA A DEFESA
Authors: Santos Jorge Calvario dos
Published: December 2020

O artigo pretende analisar o que seja política e estratégia no contexto de defesa nacional. São apresentadas considerações básicas sobre política e estratégia de defesa, uma breve apreciação sobre o mundo atual para em seguida apresentar algumas reflexões sobre política de defesa e estratégia de defesa. O artigo considera a cultura, o modo de ser da sociedade e, por isso, ela mesma deve ter a prioridade para ser defendida. Sem população, nada há para defender, ainda que esta necessite de território para viver e sobreviver.
SEGURANÇA REGIONAL E INTERESSE NACIONAL:
Authors: Oliveira Aline Laudano de
Published: December 2020

Este artigo argumenta que a decisão de estabelecer o Conselho de Defesa SulAmericano, em 2009, por proposta do Brasil, se insere na perspectiva realista das Relações Internacionais, e que a segurança regional é parte de nosso interesse nacional. Nesta visada, as iniciativas de cooperação em defesa integram a estratégia brasileira cujo objetivo político é uma nova inserção internacional, por meio de uma plataforma regional, na qual os tomadores de decisão em política externa vêm trabalhando há cerca de duas décadas. A inflexão na política nacional de defesa, do tradicional isolamento para a atual cooperação nessa matéria, responde tanto à mudança na estrutura do sistema internacional pós-Guerra Fria, quanto aos desafios lançados a uma nação emergente com aspirações globais, como o Brasil.
CONTRIBUIÇÃO DA ESG NO TIMOR LESTE
Authors: Moreira Heleno
Published: December 2020

O Timor Leste é um pequeno país, situado numa posição estratégica privilegiada, entre a Ásia e a Oceania e entre os oceanos Pacífico e Índico. Foi destruído por sua vizinha Indonésia, no final de 1975, por ocasião de uma violenta invasão militar. Possui dois idiomas oficiais: o tétum e o português, sendo este proibido pelos indonésios. É membro da Comunidade dos Países de Língua Portuguesa (CPLP). O Brasil tem procurado colaborar com os timorenses, aproveitando para se projetar naquela região e fortalecer a referida comunidade lusófana. Assim, este trabalho tem por objetivo mostrar como um planejamento estratégico pode contribuir para um país, possibilitando definir objetivos nacionais. Sua relevância é debater a importância da defesa, mostrando que a mesma não pode estar separada das políticas de desenvolvimento, bem como destacar a importância da língua portuguesa como forma de preservação da identidade e das fronteiras físicas daquele país amigo, e de contribuir com o seu desenvolvimento nacional, com ênfase na segurança e defesa. Este artigo está dividido em cinco partes, trazendo as considerações iniciais na introdução. Na segunda parte, discorre-se sobre um breve histórico do país. A terceira sessão apresenta um relato sucinto da atual conjuntura do Timor Leste. A quarta parte mostra a contribuição da ESG. A conclusão aborda como um método de planejamento estratégico pode contribuir para o crescimento e para o desenvolvimento daquele país asiático e integrante da CPLP.
