Authors: Wb Raharjo Ari , Elida Tety
Published: December 2024

This research aims to examine the interaction between various variables and digital technology instruments and map the position of each variable in Indonesian MSMEs. The study also measures the level of Digital Technology Development descriptively and tests the variables of Access & Infrastructure, Utilization, and Expertise on Digital Technology Development. The research involves 132 MSME samples and employsa structured questionnaire for primary data collection. The results of the measurement indicate that the usage level of digital technology by MSMEs for Access & Infrastructure is lower than the level of Utilization of digital technology and lower than the level of Expertise. Access & Infrastructure does not have an individual impact on Digital Technology Development in MSMEs. On the other hand, the Utilization variable and the Expertise variable have a significant impact. However, collectively, all three variables significantly affect Digital Technology Development in MSMEs and exhibit a high level of correlation.

Authors: Çuhadar Murat
Published: December 2024

Forecasting environmental protection expenditures is important in planning the financing resources needed for policies aimed at environmental protection. In this study, we aimed to determine the highest performing models from the Exponential Smoothing, Box-Jenkins" and Artificial Neural Networks methods and to estimate the environmental protection expenditures of metropolitan municipalities, which have a major role in the realization of environmental protection activities in Türkiye, for the periods from2024:-2025: 4. To evaluate the performance of the models, we used the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) criterion and identified the model with the lowest MAPE as the most accurate for forecasting. As a result of the experiments, it was seen that all three models (Seasonal ARIMA, Multiplicative-Seasonal Holt-Winter’s and ANN) produced quite successful results, and the Nonlinear Autoregressive ANN model was more successful in capturing the nonlinear patterns in the data compared to the time series models, albeit with a small difference.

Published: December 2024

Overconfidence is one of the most common investment biases exhibited by investors. The bias-transaction activity will cause unfair trading.The influence of various factors on overconfidence is examine. This research presents a novel perspective by suggesting a relationship between risk characteristics and social media. Data were collected from 165 Indonesian Stock Exchange investors in December 2023, using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method. The results show: firstly; the overconfidencelevel among investorsismoderate. Social media moderately influence investors, who generally exhibit a risk-neutral character. Secondly, no associations between gender and selected demographic factorswerefounded. In this case, male and female genders are the same for education, generation, risk characteristics, and investment strategy factors. Thirdly, an association between genes and risk characteristics. Fourthly, by OLS regression, only strategy factor influencesoverconfidence, but in the reverse direction. These results show that investors with technical strategies are more overconfident.

Published: December 2024

Este estudo analisa o nível do comprometimento da renda e o endividamento das famílias brasileiras entre 2010 e 2018.  A crise financeira de 2008 nos Estados Unidos se espalhou no mundo em virtude do endividamento da população. Os tomadores de empréstimos tinham baixo nível de educação financeira. Com elevada oferta de crédito, as famílias acabam tendo um alto endividamento, acarretando a obtenção de novos empréstimos, ocasionando recordes nos índices de endividamento nos últimos anos.  É crucial a conscientização das famílias para melhor administrarem suas finanças. A pesquisa é quantitativa, sendo que foram descritos indicadores da Pesquisa de Endividamento e Inadimplência do Consumidor e da Confederação Nacional do Comércio. O indicador de comprometimento da renda que consta no sítio eletrônico do Banco Central do Brasil e as informações do consumo das famílias brasileiras foram adquiridas da Pesquisa de Orçamento Familiar. Os resultados mostram que de 2010 a 2018 houve a expansão do endividamento, com o aumento de 55,3% para 63,7% da utilização do cartão de crédito, ocasionando elevação do comprometimento da renda de 2010 até 2015, com diminuição até 2017 e uma ligeira elevação em 2018, sendo que as despesas correntes são compostas majoritariamente de despesas de consumo e outras despesas correntes.

Published: December 2024

Exchange rate fluctuation poses a significant threat to the stability of a nation's economy. Every economy must strive to ensure stability in exchange rate to strengthen the purchasing power. The volatile movement of exchange rate in Nigeria induces increase in cost which adversely affects the manufacturing sector. Hence, this study investigated the effect of exchange rate fluctuation on performance of manufacturing sector in Nigeria. Auto Regressive Distributed Lag was used to analyse the secondary data that were collected from Central Bank statistical bulletin and annual reports. The study revealed that there is existence of a long run negative relationship between exchange rate fluctuation and contribution of manufacturing sector to GDP. There is also existence of a long run negative relationship amongst exchange rate fluctuation and manufacturing output in Nigeria. Finally, the study revealed that exchange rate fluctuation affects manufacturing capacity utilization in Nigeria. The study concluded that exchange rate volatility negatively affects Nigeria manufacturing sector. The study therefore recommends that macro-economic variables are known to affect performance of manufacturing sector therefore the monetary policies should be managed in a way that it will be favourable to manufacturing sector in Nigeria.

When New Sounds Come. The Sociocultural Effects of City Soundscape Change Based on the Example of the Pandemic
Authors:   Department of Political Science and Journalism, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, Kusto Justyna
Published: December 2024

2020 has been called the year of silence for a reason. Actions such as lockdown taken by the majority of countries in the world aiming at preventing the spread of SARS-CoV-2 virus influenced many different areas including surrounding us soundscape. Devoid of noise and sounds associated with human activity soundscape of cities attracted attention not only of researchers and sound ecologists but also people not professionally related to sound studies. Such a great interest in sound space was primarily due to the scale of the changes that affected it. In order to better understand the nature of these changes and the response to them, I begin by presenting the state of the audiosphere before the pandemic, as well as the achievements in the field of acoustic ecology—a research direction that emerged in response to the state of sound space at the time. Referring to the writings of acoustic ecology pioneer Raymond M. Schafer and the continuators of his thought I present the role of sound in the city and its impact on humans. I also explain terms that have emerged from soundscape studies that make it easier to navigate the issues I am addressing. The knowledge presented in this way provides a starting point for understanding the sound pandemic situation, which I draw on the basis of a review of popular science literature such as BBC Future, Scientific American and The Washington Post. Using them, I present the areas in which audible changes took place and the reactions to these changes. I also describe the educational action taken at the time to explain the audible situation and to exploit its sonic potential. This overview concludes with an attempt to outline the future of the urban soundscape, based on the opinions of the authors of the mentioned publications as well as my own conclusions.

Revolutionary sentiments of provincial students in the late XIX - early XX century on the example of Kursk province
Authors:   South-West State University, Kursk, Russia, Zarubina Kristina A.
Published: December 2024

The study analyzes the experience of Kurian students who actively supported and disseminated revolutionary sentiments in the Russian Empire during the period of the highest tension of political forces in the run-up to the first Russian Revolution (late XIX - early XX century). The increased interest of researchers to the events highlighting the political position of individual, the most active groups of the population (such as students) on the threshold of the first Russian revolution of the early XX century is explained not only by cognitive purposes, but also by the search in historical retrospect for analogs of modern socio-political processes taking place in the state. The analysis of the past experience will help to identify modern effective tools to ensure stable domestic political development of the country, including to curb the growth of protest sentiments, and the regional aspect of the study of the problem will allow to objectively assess the course of the historical process on a nationwide scale. It was determined that Kursk Province in the period under consideration was a typical region of the European part of Russia, where the representatives of the main revolutionary social and political movements of the Russian Empire carried out their anti-government activities. In this regard, the political worldview of the provincial population was formed both under the influence of unresolved traditional issues for the Russian society and under the influence of political propaganda. We used both the method of analysis, synthesis, generalization, as well as historical-comparative and chronological methods. Many archival materials were introduced into scientific turnover in the work for the first time, which also actualizes the topic of the study. Based on the study of archival cases and specialized scientific literature, it was determined that Kurian students, studying in various higher educational institutions of the Russian Empire, in the period under consideration showed high political activity. Among the means of political struggle, open forms of resistance to the authorities prevailed (e.g., participation in political speeches, political propaganda, membership in banned associations, etc.). However, because there were no higher educational institutions in the region at that time, and Kurians received their higher education in other major Russian cities (e.g., Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kharkov), students most often defended their revolutionary views there, and therefore the influence of politically active students on provincial society was generally insignificant.
American immigrant communes of Kirsanovsky uyezd, Tambov province, 1920s-1930s: main sources and peculiarities of the study
Authors:   G. R. Derzhavin Tambov State University, Tambov, Russia, Romanov Vladimir V. , Nikolashin Vadim P. ,   G. R. Derzhavin Tambov State University, Tambov, Russia

The article assesses the research potential of the history of immigration agricultural communes that were created in Soviet Russia after the Civil War. Tambov Province was one of the first regions where re-emigrants who wanted to work for the idea of building a just socialist society began to arrive. Of the 16 immigrant agrarian communes established in 1918-1925, the vast majority were founded by natives of the United States, and two communes - “Put” and “Ira” - were territorially located in Kirsanovsky uyezd of Tambov province. The Irskaya commune, later named after V. I. Lenin, became one of the most famous in the country. It was able to achieve certain successes and even received the status of a “model” commune, becoming a kind of platform for demonstrating “socialist achievements” not only for the residents of Soviet Russia, but also for numerous foreign guests. The second commune, “Put”, created by the Americans on the territory of Kirsanovsky uyezd, was less successful and therefore practically unstudied. The history of the Irskaya commune at various stages of historiography was covered in a rather fragmentary manner and its interpretations were most seriously influenced by ideological stamps characteristic of each period. As a result, many aspects of the topic are still understudied. An extensive layer of archival sources has not yet been fully introduced into the scientific turnover. The authors analyze the fonds of the State Archive of Social and Political History of the Tambov Region (GASPITO) and the State Archive of the Tambov Region (GATO), which allow to highlight such aspects of the history of American communes as their daily life, the peculiarities of interaction with higher party and economic bodies. A relevant area for further research could be the goal-setting of numerous foreign visitors to the Irsk commune and the specifics of their perception of the Soviet reality. Among the foreign guests of the commune were well-known political and public figures, scientists, and journalists. It is quite obvious that all of them came to the Irsk commune not just for some exciting adventures. Rather, most of the foreign guests were trying to familiarize themselves with the new vector of Soviet Russia's development and, to some extent, to counteract Western Russophobia. The new research, as the authors conclude, given the vast base of documents not yet introduced into the scientific circulation, has great potential for the formation of new knowledge about the social experiments of the era of early Soviet society.
The first years of activity of the Yaroslavl Society for the Benefit of Persons Released from Imprisonment 1895-1907s

In the article on the basis of the materials of the State Archive of the Yaroslavl region (GASO), which were first introduced into scientific circulation, the creation and activities in the early years of the Yaroslavl society of benefits to persons released from prison are considered. The public organization was one of the first similar societies to emerge in the Russian provinces. Retrospective, historical-genetic, historical-comparative and general scientific research methods were used. In the research literature, both local and all-Russian, the society is mentioned only fragmentarily, without a detailed analysis of its activities. The introduced unpublished sources allowed us to consider the circumstances of the emergence of the organization at the end of the XIX century, to identify its most active members, the mechanism of assistance to former prisoners, to assess the effectiveness of prison patronage at the turn of the XIX - early XX century. The opinion is refuted that it was in Yaroslavl that the first provincial charitable organization to help released prisoners emerged. For the first time the mechanism of the society's work is described, specific examples of assistance to prisoners who have served their time are given, and the society's interaction with state authorities and the public is revealed. The source analysis of the Yaroslavl society documents revealed its connection with the well-known Yaroslavl business circles, which made it possible to establish previously unknown facts of charitable activities of the regional business community. It also revealed the presence of interest in the activities of the Yaroslavl Society on the part of state structures and similar charitable organizations of other provinces. The authors proved that the activities of the Yaroslavl Prison Patronage Society in the late 19th - early 20th century reduced the likelihood of former criminals breaking the law again. The society provided assistance to released prisoners in order to reintegrate them into normal society. The circumstances of the society's emergence and a detailed analysis of the positive and negative processes during the initial stages of its work allow us to speak about the applied nature of this study. Charitable organizations occupying a similar niche are virtually non-existent in contemporary Russia. The absence of such societies complicates the return to normal life of offenders who have served their sentences and contributes to the further growth of unlawful acts with subsequent criminal liability. As practical recommendations, the authors note the possibility of translating the historical experience to solve the problem of recidivism in our days.

Published: December 2024

The article reviews the collection of documents “The Assault on Perekop in the Mirror of Historical Memory”, prepared in 2023 by the staff of the Russian State Archive in Samara (hereinafter RGA) under the direction of O. N. Soldatova together with Samara, Moscow and Sevastopol historians, archivists and museum staff. The materials of the collection consisted of documents from six fonds of federal archives - the Russian State Archive in Samara, the Russian State Military Archive, the Russian State Archive of Social and Political History, as well as the Museum-Reserve of the Heroic Defense and Liberation of Sevastopol. The reviewers note that the compilers have carried out thorough preparatory work to identify, analyze and select complementary documents, the dominant part of which is being introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. In terms of the development of archaeographic methodology, the collection is promising in terms of the proposed interdisciplinary approach, which combines the potential of historical science, archival science, source and art history in covering one of the most important events of the Civil War and related domestic commemorative practice of the late 1930s. It is stated that in this focus the structure of the collection is logical: the first section is devoted to the history of the Perekop-Chongar operation of 1920, the second - to the largest Soviet pre-war art project - the battle panorama “The Assault on Perekop” (1934-1940), lost during the Great Patriotic War, the third section - to the All-Union competition of projects for the construction of the building for the panorama, held in 1940. The merits of the extensive and well-developed scientific and reference apparatus of the publication are emphasized. The numbering, dating, legends and titles of published documents are positive features of this structural part. The publication is provided with notes and comments on the content, a biographical guide, lists of abbreviations and sources and literature, demonstrating its high archeographic level. The value of the collection of documents is also due to the inclusion of visual sources: photographs of the creators of the panorama, sketches by M. M. Soloviev, drawings and blueprints of the building project for the panorama “Assault on Perekop”. The authors of the review conclude that the publication has undoubted merits and the importance and relevance of its appearance in the world. Confidence is expressed in the emergence of interest of readers - historians, archival and museum workers, students, etc. to the reviewed novelty in a number of documentary collections and its active use in scientific and educational activities, as well as in the preparation of similar projects in the future.
The house in the lease agreements of the sacred land in Attica of the IV century BC
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Moscow, Russia, Bulycheva Elena V.
Published: December 2024

The article deals with the problem of the idea of a house in Athens in the IV century BC. This issue is very controversial, since in ancient Greek the word house had different meanings. At the same time, this problem seems to be very relevant, since at all times the ideas about the house were ambiguous. In different eras, not only a dwelling could be called a house, but also entire related communities or individual outbuildings. The problem of the idea of a house in Athens in the IV century BC has not been practically developed in modern historiography. As a rule, researchers turn to the study of this issue, considering an earlier period in the history of Athens or, conversely, the era of Hellenism (III – II centuries BC). This is mainly due to the presence of a certain source base. In particular, in the works of ancient authors, the problem of the concept of a house in the IV century BC is practically not considered. At the same time, this is a very important epoch in the history of Athens, when various socio-economic changes took place in the life of the ancient polis. In this regard, the purpose of this article is to explore the idea of a house in Ancient Attica (Athens region) in the IV century BC. The author of the article drew attention to the fact that, as a rule, temenos included land plots, as well as various buildings designated as houses. In this regard, special attention is paid to the study of the question of what their purpose was. A comparative analysis of the information of epigraphic material from Attica, as well as other areas of the Greek world, suggests that in many texts the word house meant both a dwelling intended for family residence and various buildings with religious and economic purposes. As a result, the author of the article came to the following conclusions. In some cases, the word "house" meant a temple room, which, apparently, was represented by the ancient Greeks as the dwelling of the gods. In addition, this could be the designation of household premises intended for the storage of agricultural equipment and livestock. Studying the content of the text of the inscriptions also makes it possible to imagine that under the terms of the lease agreement, the citizens of Athens were ordered to take care of these buildings, constantly carrying out construction and repair work. Thus, control was exercised over the maintenance of the condition of the property, which has a special, sacred status.
Ink production in Russia in the XVI-XVIIs according to written sources
Authors:   Russian National Library, St. Petersburg, Russia, Lyakhovitsky Evgeny A. , Polyakov Ivan A. ,   Russian National Library, St. Petersburg, Russia
Published: December 2024

The article is devoted to the question of how ink production was organized in Russia in the XVI-XVII cc. This question is of significant importance for historical and technological studies of ink. According to the written sources, which contain information about the payment of the scribe's labor, first of all, in the monastery expense books, we can conclude that the cost of ink is not mentioned among the consumables, the cost of which should be compensated to the scribe. This allows us to assume that the scribe's independent production of ink was implied. Most of the ink recipes of the Old Russian tradition, the earliest records of which date back to the end of the 15th century, correspond to this state of affairs. Recipes not infrequently contain recommendations for adjusting the properties of the resulting product, but the dosage of ingredients is absent or almost absent. Nevertheless, there are a small number of recipes in which the dosages are precise and detailed. In one of these, the number of ingredients clearly indicates a large volume of output product in excess of individual needs. Another distinctive feature of this recipe is the rapidity of the process - only three days. This recipe corresponds to the practice of relatively mass production of ink, also known from written sources. The practice of producing ink for one's own needs is reflected in the expense books of such monasteries as Joseph-Volokolamsky and Kirillo-Belozersky, as well as the orders of the Privy Affairs and the Gathering of Soldiers. According to the materials of the expenditure books of large orders, such as Razryadny, Pomestny, the activities of specialized craftsmen - inklingsmiths, whose activities unfolded no later than the turn of the XVI-XVII centuries. The information presented in the sources demonstrates rather large volumes of supplies made by the ink makers, which required maintaining stocks of ingredients and constant implementation of the production process. The expenditure books of the orders demonstrate purchases from one inker regularly over a long period of time. The emergence of inklings should obviously be attributed to the large consumers concentrated in Moscow - the Prikazes. Nevertheless, already in the middle of the XVII century sources recorded the presence of an inkwell in Veliky Novgorod. The question of the spread of this craft in Russia in the 17th century requires a separate study. The situation in which individual scribe and relatively mass handicraft production coexisted raises questions about the extent to which the formulations within these two practices coincided, and the extent to which their products were widespread in book writing and office work.

cylindrical air cavities, mathematical model of shock wave deformation, inertia of the liquid-gas cavities system, mass of model charges
Authors: Chemodurov V. , Litvinova E.
Published: December 2024

The issues of protection of underwater objects using cylindrical air cavities are studied. In a number of tasks, it is fundamentally important to have not only the distribution of the pressure field in the liquid because of the movement of the boundaries of the deformable system, but also the parameters of the movement of the liquid itself. In this case, the parameters of the liquid movement have a significant effect on the fastening conditions of the gas cavities. The shock wave, spreading in water with gas inclusions, undergoes significant deformation. Preliminary experiments conducted to determine the parameters of underwater shock wave in water with air cavities have shown the possibility of controlling pressure peaks and, therefore, creating conditions for the safety of the underwater structure. Analyzing theoretical studies, it can be seen, that a dispersion of the wave process occurs inside the liquid region with gas cavities. The initial pressure peak decreases dramatically. In the area of the protected object, it decreases by almost two orders of magnitude compared to the maximum pressure in the initial shock wave. The pressure is mainly determined by the pulsation of the gas cavities generated by the explosive air wave. The duration of the load in the presence of gas cavities increases sharply.

Published: December 2024

The study aims experimental investigation of the sigma vectors in Nodal Aberration Theory for a customized non-aplanatic high-precision Cassegrain telescope under coma-free pivot point (CFPP) misalignment conditions. Rotating the telescope's secondary mirror at the CFPP introduces a specific misalignment condition, resulting in unchanged coma aberration across the field of view (FOV). Evaluating CFPP misalignment is essential for optical alignment processes. Investigating the field aberration vectors for the telescope’s CFPP misalignment state provides valuable insights into the behavior of field-dependent aberrations and enhances the understanding of CFPP misalignment conditions.
THE DIALECTICS OF MYTH AND HISTORY: EXPLORING AND DECODING THE CIRCLE OF REASON BY AMITAV GHOSH.
Authors: Kumar Sooraj , S. Seema Rajan
Published: December 2024

The Circle of Reason by Amitav Ghosh is a celebration of the fictional arras of myth, history, and rationality. It inevitably offers a glowing and an intricate exploration of human life across assorted cultures and topographies. The novel dextrously blends the mythical narratives with historical reasoning and sturdily challenges the conventional restrictions between fact and fiction. Ghosh’s portrayal of the protagonist, Alu, becomes a vehicle to examine the intersections of tradition and modernity, myth and logic, as well as the cultural conflicts that arise rapidly in a globalizing world. The novel, through its non-linear narrative, draws upon allegorical elements from Indian mythology while simultaneously engaging with historical events and scientific ideologies, such as the Enlightenment and colonial enterprise. It thus encompasses the finest tenets of New-Historicism in its journey of human exploration.
ROLE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN TRANSFORMING INDIAN HEALTHCARE
Authors: Bharti Ankita , Kumari Suman
Published: December 2024

In the technological era, artificial intelligence is a tool that works like a human mind. There are many instances where AI is being put to good use, from hospitals and clinics to research facilities, academic work and labs. In terms of healthcare, AI facilitates examination and management of medical treatment. The success of AI systems in healthcare is due to the creation of complex algorithms that can pull valuable information from vast amounts of healthcare data. Auto-learning capabilities may be added to the algorithms to boost efficiency and precision. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies provide doctors with sophisticated medical information from journals, clinical papers, and textbooks for quick patient treatment. AI has the potential to reduce human error in both diagnosis and treatment. Medical data, especially that relating to patients, may be used for the learning process. Biomarkers, NLP, expert systems based on rules, and physical robots are all examples of forms of AI that have applications in healthcare.

वर्ष 2007 में तत्कालिन प्रधानमंत्री मनमोहन सिंह की अध्यक्षता में कांग्रेस सरकार द्वारा न्यायमूर्ति रंगनाथन मिश्रा की एक रिपोर्ट आती है जिसे रंगनाथन मिश्रा आयोग के नाम से भी जाना जाता है। इस रिपोर्ट ने भारतीय ईसाई और मुस्लिम समुदाय के लोगों को अनुसूचित जाति श्रेणी में शामिल करने और उनके उत्थान के लिए दिए जाने वाले आरक्षण का लाभ दिए जाने की सिफारिश की I इस रिपोर्ट के बाद पूरे देश में आरक्षण को लेकर एक नई बहस छिड़ गई जिसने पुन: आरक्षण पर की जाने वाली राजनीति को तो चर्चा का विषय बनाया ही साथ ही आरक्षण पाने हेतु किस प्रकार ईसाई और मुस्लिम समुदाय , दलित और स्वयं के बीच जातिगत एकता स्थापित करने का प्रयास कर रहे हैं इस मंशा को भी उजागर किया । मसलन ईसाई और मुस्लिम धर्म में धर्मान्तरित लोग भी हिन्दू धर्म के वंचित दलित लोगों के ही समान है इसलिये उन्हें भी दलितों कों दिये जाने वाले आरंक्षण की श्रेणी में रखा जाना चाहिये । इस षडयंत्र को साकार रूप देने हेतु वर्ष 2004 के बाद से ही समाज में ‘दलित मुस्लिम’ और ‘दलित ईसाई’ शब्दों का झूठा नरेटिव खड़ा करने का प्रयास लगातार जोरों शोरों से किया जा रहा है I इस झूठ की आवाज़ हमें हाल ही में ‘जय भीम जय मीम’ के नारों में सुनाई दी । जबकि संवैधानिक रूप से उपरोक्त दोनों ही धर्मो में किसी प्रकार का जातिगत भेदभाव होता ही नहीं है I जातिगत भेदभाव केवल हिन्दू धर्म की विभिन्न शाखाओं में ही देखा जाता है जो समाज के दलितों को अस्पृश्य मान कर सदियों से उनके साथ भेद भाव करता आया है । मसलन मानवाधिकारों को ध्यान में रखते हुये एवं इस प्रथा को गैर मानवीय व्यवहार मानते हुये संविधान निर्माता बाबा भीम राव अम्बेडकर द्वारा दलित समाज को सामाजिक न्याय दिलाने और समानता के पायदान पर खडा करने के लिये संवैधानिक सुरक्षा के रूप में संविधान में कुछ प्रतिशत अरंक्षण का प्रावधान किया। ताकि हिन्दू समाज के दलित वर्ग को भी राजनीति, शिक्षा, और सरकारी पदों तक पहुचाया जा सके। बाबा साहेब के इस प्रयास को पूरे विश्व में ‘सामाजिक न्याय’ के रूप में सराहा भी जाता रहा है। यहां यह स्पष्ट कर देना आवश्यक है कि यह व्यवस्था केवल हिन्दू धर्म के दलित वर्ग हेतु ही की गई थी । मसलन यदि ऐसे में मिश्रा आयोग द्वारा बगैर किसी तार्किकता के ईसाई और मुस्लिम धर्म के लोगों को दलितों की श्रेणी में शामिल करने का प्रयास मिश्रा आयोग के माध्यम से किया जाता है तो क्या यह एक राजनीतिक षडयंत्र नही माना जाना चाहिये। इन्ही तथ्यों को ध्यान में रखते हुए यहां यह प्रश्न उठना सहज ही है कि क्या यह यूपीए सरकार की तुष्टिकरण की नीति है? क्या यह प्रयास है हिंदू धर्म पर हमला बोलने का? क्या यह दलित वर्ग की सामाजिक सुरक्षा हेतु दिए गए आरक्षण को मुस्लिम और ईसाई धर्म के द्वारा हड़पने का प्रयास है? या फिर काग्रेस सरकार का रंगनाथन मिश्रा आयोग द्वारा मुस्लिम और ईसाई धर्म के वोटो हेतु लुभाने का प्रयास है? यहां सवाल यह भी उठता है कि क्या यह आयोग भारतीय विविधता को खत्म करने और भारतीय लोकतंत्र को खत्म करने का प्रयास नही है? इन सभी प्रश्नों का विश्लेषण प्रस्तुत शोध पत्र में किया गया है
İzmir Örnekleriyle Birinci Ulusal Mimarlık Dönemi Kamu Yapılarında Karosimanlar
Authors: Özkan Tekneci Zeynep , Uçar Aygül
Published: December 2024

Karosiman, mimari yapıların zemin ve cephe süslemelerinde kullanılan bir döşeme malzemesidir. Bu karolar döşendikleri alanları estetik açıdan güzelleştirirken aynı zamanda kolay temizlenebilir ve hijyenik mekânlar elde edilmesini sağlamaktadır. Karosimanlar; pigmentli çimento, mermer tozu, beyaz çimento ve diğer minerallerle hazırlanan bir karışımdan meydana gelir. Çimentonun keşfi sonrasında ilk kez 19. yüzyıl ortalarında Fransa’da üretilmeye başlanan karosiman ticaret yoluyla başta Akdeniz çevresine, buradan da tüm dünyaya yayılmıştır. Fransızca telaffuzunun yanlış anlaşılması bu malzemenin Osmanlı’da “karosiman” adıyla tanınmasına yol açmıştır. Başlarda Osmanlı’nın Levanten nüfus ağırlıklı İstanbul, İzmir, Mersin gibi kentlerine ithal olarak giren bu malzeme kısa sürede Anadolu’da da moda olmuş, dönemin pek çok farklı yapı türünde kullanım alanı bulmuştur. İzmir özelinde bakıldığında, karosimanların genellikle 19. yüzyıl sonu ile 20. yüzyıl başına tarihlenen konutlarda ve hastane, okul, iş hanı gibi çeşitli yapılarda sıklıkla kullanılmış olduğu görülür. Bununla birlikte bu çalışmada, İzmir’deki Birinci Ulusal Mimarlık Dönemi kamu yapılarında kullanılan karosimanların motif, renk ve form özellikleri ile kullanıldığı yerler bakımından ele alınması ve dönem içerisindeki yerinin vurgulanması amaçlanmaktadır. Birinci Ulusal Mimarlık üslubu, cephe özellikleriyle öne çıkan bir üslup olmakla birlikte yapıların iç mekân dekorasyonunu da etkilemiştir. Bu dönem yapılarında, karosimanlar salt bir döşeme malzemesi olmaktan çıkmış, mimari bütünü tamamlayan birer öge haline dönüşmüştür. Döşeme karoları üzerine sıklıkla lale, karanfil gibi bitkisel motifler ile eşkenar dörtgen, çokgen ve çok kollu yıldız gibi motiflerden oluşan Selçuklu ve Osmanlı Dönemi’nin klasikleşmiş süsleme unsurları aktarılmıştır. Cephelerden zeminlere kadar yayılan bu motiflerin kullanımı, dönemin ruhunu temsil eden ortak bir süsleme repertuvarı oluşturmaktadır.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, standart üretim yöntemi bulunmayan ve bölgede yaygın olarak tüketilen Tel peynirlerinin kimyasal, biyokimyasal ve duyusal özelliklerini belirlemektir.
Materyal ve yöntem: Çalışma için 17 adet Tel peyniri örneği Doğu ve Orta Karadeniz bölgesindeki (Trabzon, Giresun, Rize, Samsun ve Ordu) farklı süt işletmelerinden temin edilmiştir ve -18oC'de muhafaza edilerek analize hazır hale getirilmiştir. Bu örneklerin kimyasal olarak kurumadde (%), tuz (%), yağ (%), titrasyon asitliği (%), protein (%) oranları ve biyokimyasal olarak olgunlaşma derecesi (%), protein olmayan azot (NPN) (%) ve proteoz-pepton azot (PPN) (%) değerleri belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca örnekler, duyusal olarak renk ve görünüş, koku, tat ve aroma, tekstür ve genel kabul edilebilirlik kriterleri açısından değerlendirmeye tabii tutulmuştur.
Araştırma bulguları: Peynirlerin kurumadde oranları %47.70-62.93, tuz oranları %1.40-3.39, yağ oranları %6.00-19.00, titrasyon asitliği değerleri %0.54-2.16 ve protein oranları %14.69-27.36 arasında belirlenmiştir. Biyokimyasal olarak olgunlaşma dereceleri %6.07 ile %31.59 arasında değerler alırken, NPN oranları %1.24- 5.57 arasında, PPN oranları ise %0.37-2.35 arasında değişmiştir. Örneklere ait renk ve görünüş puanları 5.87-8.62 arasında, koku puanları 5.75-7.75 arasında, tat ve aroma puanları 5.12-8.75, tekstür puanları 6.37-8.37 ve genel kabul edilebilirlik puanları ise 6.25-8.75 arasında değişen değerler almışlardır.
Sonuç: Çalışma verileri değerlendirildiğinde Tel peyniri örneklerinde kimyasal, biyokimyasal ve duyusal özellikler bakımından belirgin farklılıklar gözlemlenmiştir. Bu farklılıkların başlıca nedenleri arasında, Tel peynirinin üretiminde standart bir yöntemin bulunmaması, kullanılan hammadde sütünün bileşimi (yağ oranı, protein oranı, pH vb.), üretimde yapılan yanlış teknolojik işlemler ve peynirin aracılar tarafından toplanarak birleştirilmesidir. Tel peyniri üzerine yapılacak olan çalışmalar standart besin değerlerine sahip olabilecek bu tip peynirlerin piyasada yer almasına katkı sağlayacaktır.
