Amnesty International and Women's Rights
Authors: Ganzfried Miriam
Published: December 2021

Amnesty International's (AI) focus on civil and political rights has marked their work with a gender bias from the outset. In the first comprehensive look at AI's work on women's rights, Miriam Ganzfried illustrates the development of their activities regarding women's rights issues over twenty years. Through interviews with staff members and activists and unprecedented access to archive material from the Swiss and the German AI sections, she shows how women activists strategized to make AI increase its work on women's rights. Additionally, the book demonstrates that, despite the leadership's commitment to the Stop Violence Against Women campaign, internal resistance hampered the integration of women's rights into the organization's overall work.
Lyrische Gesellschaft
Authors: Grummt Daniel
Published: December 2021

Lyrik ist ein alltägliches Phänomen in der gegenwärtigen Gesellschaft, das von Abzählreimen und Balladen bis zu Versen an Hauswänden reicht. Daniel Grummt arbeitet anhand dieser Beobachtung gezielt mit lyrischen Texten im Kontext von soziologischen Fragestellungen. Ziel ist es, das methodische Instrumentarium der sozialwissenschaftlichen Praxis sinnvoll zu erweitern und zu ergänzen. Eingebettet sind diese Überlegungen vor allem in eine soziologische Forschungstradition, die ihren Ausgangspunkt bei den Ideen und Schriften der Romantiker*innen nimmt.
Transnationaler Bergbau und lokale Politik
Authors: Bechtum Alexandra
Published: December 2021

Bergbau, soziale Konflikte und Umweltkatastrophen - seit den 1990er Jahren erlebt Lateinamerika einen historischen Rohstoffboom. Welche Rolle spielen die Betreiber der Minen in den Abbauregionen? Wie schaffen sie Akzeptanz unter der lokalen Bevölkerung? Und welche politischen Auswirkungen zieht dies nach sich? Alexandra Bechtum analysiert das Handeln transnationaler Bergbauunternehmen in Argentinien und hinterfragt kritisch die sozial- und infrastrukturpolitischen Maßnahmen, die Bergbauunternehmen in den Abbauregionen industrieller Goldminen implementieren. Dabei stellt sie Fragen von Demokratie und Entwicklung in den Fokus.
Essays zur digitalen Transformation

Published: December 2021

Die digitale Transformation ist revolutionär: Sie unterbricht die traditionellen Ordnungen der modernen westlichen Gesellschaft und ändert sie auf sozialer, kultureller, wirtschaftlicher und politischer Ebene radikal. Es geht dabei um die Entstehung einer globalen Netzwerkgesellschaft und den Untergang der westlichen Industriegesellschaft samt ihren Weltbildern, ihrer Politik, ihrer Ethik und ihrem humanistischen Menschenbild. Andréa Belliger und David J. Krieger beschreiben und bewerten in kurzen Reflexionen und Gedankenexperimenten die Bedeutung des aktuellen Geschehens sowohl im Hinblick auf die Vergangenheit als auch auf die Zukunft.
FRAMING PEMBERITAAN RANCANGAN UNDANG-UNDANG PENGHAPUSAN KEKERASAN SEKSUAL PADA MEDIA TIRTO ID DAN REPUBLIKA CO ID
Authors: Akbar Adrial
Published: December 2021

In the middle of increasing concerns about acts of sexual violence, the Draft Law on the Elimination of Sexual Violence (RUU PKS), has not yet been ratified. It is made worse by many people who refuse the approval due to the circulation of misinformation. And the press plays an important role here. It can be a corrector or even a disseminator of misinformation, depending on the framing that is formed. Therefore, this study explains the framing patterns of republika.co.id and tirto.id in presenting news related to the RUU PKS. The research method used is Pan and Kosicki model framing analysis. The researcher looks for the reality that the two media want to build by analyzing the news that is spread around the RUU PKS using four structures, namely: syntax, script, thematic and rhetorical. And it was found that republika.co.id had a framing that the RUU PKS. was not ready to be ratified because many parties, both in general and from the Indonesian House of Representatives itself, thought that this bill could not be ratified. Meanwhile, tirto.id has framing to describe the lack of seriousness of the Indonesian House of Representatives in discussing the RUU PKS, which led to the failure of this bill to be passed, as well as trying to correct the misinformation circulating. Therefore, the two media analyzed have different framing in presenting news related to the RUU PKS.
An Ontology for the In-Between of Motion: Aristotle’s Reaction to Zeno’s Arguments
Authors: Crubellier Michel
Published: December 2021

This paper proposes an interpretation of Books V and VI of Aristotle’s Physics as being (at least partly) a reaction to Zeno’s four “arguments against motion” that Aristotle expounds and discusses in Phys. VI 9. On the basis of a detailed textual analysis of that chapter, I show that Zeno’s arguments rest on a frame of a priori notions such as part and whole, in contact, between, limit, etc., which Aristotle takes over in order to account for the inner structure (here called “the In-Between”) common to all facts of motion and change. That frame allows him to develop a specific ontology for that inner structure – although it exists only potentially according to the Aristotelian orthodoxy – because he needs such an ontology in order to vindicate the reality of motion and change.
Zarys filozofi i bytu duchowego z pozycji tomizmu
Authors: MIKUCKI KAZIMIERZ
Published: December 2021

From the Thomistic point of view, the outline of philosophy of spiritual being takes into account three basic dimensions of the spirit. The first deals with the existence of independent personal beings, i.e. individual substances: God, angelic beings and human souls. The second is related to the fundamental phenomena of the inner life of a person, that is powers of the soul, their acts and objects. The last form of the spirit deals with personal external activity in the course of which all kinds of extra-mental beings are created. These include, above all, the multiple forms of the so-called spiritual culture, present nowadays mainly in science, art, morals and religion.

Fonetyka języka ojczystego a kształtowanie kompetencji fonetycznej w języku obcym na przykładzie języka francuskiego
Authors: Gajos Mieczysław
Published: December 2021

Prawidłowa i skuteczna komunikacja wymaga opanowania wszystkich podsystemów językowych. W procesie przyswajania języków obcych w środowisku edukacyjnym rozwój kompetencji fonetycznych jest często traktowany jako marginalny. Świadczą o tym przytoczone w artykule wyniki badań. Artykuł stanowi punkt wyjścia do dyskusji na temat przydatności fonetyki języka ojczystego w kształtowaniu umiejętności fonetycznych w języku obcym. Z obserwacji i badań autora wynika, że fonetyka języka ojczystego jest nie tylko źródłem interferencji międzyjęzykowej. Wiedza i umiejętności fonetyczne nabyte w języku ojczystym mogą pełnić rolę pozytywnego transferu w kształtowaniu kompetencji fonetycznej w języku obcym oraz pomóc w opanowaniu prawidłowej percepcji i artykulacji głosek oraz prozodii.
L’anxiete langagiere en classe de français : les attitudes des lyceens polonais envers l’enseignement/apprentissage de l’oral
Authors: Lipińska Julia
Published: December 2021

While learning a foreign language, students have to practice speaking through different activities in class. Unfortunately, speaking is often a challenge for students not only due to linguistic difficulties, but most importantly because of the stress caused by talking in a foreign language in front of their classmates. This phenomenon, called language anxiety, makes it impossible for some students to participate actively and thus to develop their speaking abilities. It is therefore important to understand which types of tasks cause the highest anxiety levels, as well as to find out what can help students overcome their anxiety. To answer these questions, we led a research among Polish high school students learning French. They were asked about their attitudes towards different speaking activities in class, as well as about the atmosphere in class. The results show students are the most stressed while speaking in front of their peers and prefer interaction in small groups. Language games also appear to lower the level of anxiety during speaking. In addition, positive atmosphere and lack of judgment help students overcome their fear, but they do not eliminate it completely for every person.
Proposition of a Modern Theological Interpretation of Death as a Consequence of Sin Introduction
Authors: Witała Maciej
Published: December 2021

There is an apparent contradiction between the catholic doctrine of death as a result of the Original Sin and the fact that the biological death is a common and somewhat necessary phenomenon in the world of nature. Analysis of biblical data and interpretation of the Magisterium of the Church’s dogmatic teaching allows us to propose a solution to the problem by stating that the primary consequence of sin is spiritual death, that is, breaking communion with God, and bodily death is only a secondary, consequence result of sin, which means that the experience of bodily death has changed for man after the fall. This proposal is corroborated by opinions of some recognized contemporary theologians.
Działalność Zgromadzenia Misjonarzy Świętej Rodziny w Wieluniu
Authors: Widera Michał
Published: December 2021

W nowej rzeczywistości po odzyskaniu przez Polskę niepodległości zostały podjęte przez władze Zgromadzenia Misjonarzy Świętej Rodziny działania mające na celu utworzenie domu zakonnego w Wieluniu. Nastąpiło to po aprobacie bpa Stanisława Zdzitowieckiego w 1920 r. W kolejnym roku doszło do przejęcia przez zakon dawnego klasztoru poaugustiańskiego w Wieluniu. Wkrótce nastąpił rozwój duszpasterstwa i rozpoczęły się prace remontowe średniowiecznego klasztoru. Szczególny nacisk misjonarze położyli na katechizację, głoszenie misji i odprawianie nabożeństw. Równolegle doszło do powołania nowicjatu zakonnego i szkoły misyjnej – ośmioletniego gimnazjum męskiego, do którego uczęszczali uczniowie pochodzący z całego powiatu wieluńskiego. Intensywny rozwój działalności został zahamowany przez wybuch II wojny światowej, w czasie której klasztor doznał ogromnych strat materialnych. W 1946 r. doszło do jego przekazania na rzecz diecezji częstochowskiej.
Chrześcijańsko-muzułmańskie relacje w Azji Centralnej do czasów Timura (XIV wiek)
Authors: Kluj Wojciech
Published: December 2021

W czasach, kiedy mówi się o upadku chrześcijańskiej kultury Zachodu, warto przyjrzeć się pewnej analogii sprzed siedmiu wieków. Pierwsze tysiąclecie rozwoju wiary w Azji doprowadziło do powstania wielu wybitnych syntez teologicznych. Wydało też wielu świętych męczenników i misjonarzy. Chrześcijaństwo to miało również swoje doświadczenie takiej relacji z islamem, że pomimo pewnych prześladowań nie traciło ducha misyjnego i do XIII w. stale się rozwijało. Przełom nastąpił dopiero z powodu wojen mongolskich i to dopiero za czasów Timura. Dlaczego Timur przyjął islam, pomimo niemałej obecności chrześcijan w jego otoczeniu? Nie brakowało wtedy ani wybitnych uczonych chrześcijańskich (podobnie jak muzułmańskich). Poza możliwymi powodami osobistymi,  prawdopodobnie zadecydowały o tym względy większego zakorzeniania islamu wśród mas prostej ludności Azji Centralnej, w którym ważną rolę odegrał „zakon” Nakszbandijja.
Jesus im Koran
Authors: Halczuk Piotr
Published: December 2021

Pytanie o Jezusa było i jest rozważane w kontekście całej historii świata. Było i jest wciąż na nowo stawiane: Czy Jezus jest przewodnikiem ludzkości i tylko człowiekiem? Czy mówi przez niego Bóg Ojciec, dając ostateczne odpowiedzi na nurtujące ludzkość pytania? Czy Jezus jest legendą? W niniejszym artykule została podjęta próba odpowiedzi na pytanie: Jaki obraz Jezusa zawiera Koran, święta księga islamu? Dla wyznawców islamu Koran jest podstawowym źródłem wiedzy o Jezusie. Dlatego warto, aby chrześcijanin poznał „Jezusa Koranu”, który ma wiele wspólnego z „Jezusem Nowego Testamentu”.
The role of w-tilting modules in relative Gorenstein (co)homology
Authors: Bennis Driss , Duarte Enrique , Rozas Juan R. García , Oyonarte Luis
Published: December 2021

LetRRbe a ring,CCbe a leftRR-module andS=EndR(C)S={{\rm{End}}}_{R}\left(C). WhenCCis semidualizing, the Auslander classAC(S){{\mathcal{A}}}_{C}\left(S)and the Bass classℬC(R){{\mathcal{ {\mathcal B} }}}_{C}\left(R)associated withCChave been the subject of extensive investigations. It has been proved that these classes, also known as Foxby classes, are one of the central concepts of (relative) Gorenstein homological algebra. In this paper, we answer several natural questions which arise when we weaken the condition ofCCbeing semidualizing: if we letCCbe w-tilting (see Definition 2.1), we establish the conditions for the pair(AC(S),AC(S)⊥1)\left({{\mathcal{A}}}_{C}\left(S),{{\mathcal{A}}}_{C}{\left(S)}^{{\perp }_{1}})to be a perfect cotorsion theory and for the pair(BC⊥1(R),BC(R))\left({}^{{\perp }_{1}}B_{C}\left(R),{B}_{C}\left(R))to be a complete hereditary cotorsion theory. This tells us when the classes of Auslander and Bass are preenveloping and precovering, which generalizes a number of results disseminated in the literature. We investigate Gorenstein flat modules relative to a not necessarily semidualizing moduleCCand we find conditions for the class ofGC{G}_{C}-projective modules to be special precovering, the class ofGC{G}_{C}-flat modules to be covering, the one of GorensteinCC-projective modules to be precovering and that of GorensteinCC-injective modules to be preenveloping. We also find how to recover Foxby classes fromAddR(C){{\rm{Add}}}_{R}\left(C)-resolutions ofRR.
Bad Space
Authors: Kavka Alena
Published: December 2021

Gregor Schneider’s domestic installation space Haus u r is space gone bad, space rendered alien. The processual installation, which defies easy categorization as an artwork, has since 1985 involved the obsessive deconstruction and reconstruction of the interiors of Schneider’s family home in Germany. Anchored by an interrogation of space as a form of mediated materiality, this article pursues the ways in which space can be languaged. By first arguing that conventional understandings of space reify a spatial anthropocentrism, it then explores the way in which Haus u r makes evident the potential for an autonomous spatial languaging beyond culturally imposed presuppositions relating to space. Through the symbolic disembodiment of its viewers and the repudiation of their perceptual agency, Schneider’s piece deposes the supremacy of the human as a perceiving and meaning-making subject, allowing for the conceptualization of other linguistic and spatial agencies outside of human paradigms of interpretation.
Dancing in the Darkroom
Authors: Lund Curt
Published: December 2021

Russian émigré Alexey Brodovitch, best known for leading a radical shift in magazine design in the United States during his twenty-four-year tenure (1934–58) as art director of Harper’s Bazaar, also pursued innovative practices in other fields of art, design, and education. His ballet photography, made during rehearsals and performances of touring dance companies in New York City from 1935 to 1938, explored unusual methods of capturing dancers in motion. Brodovitch’s images would eventually come to be celebrated for their unconventional approach, but at the time, Brodovitch was not sure of his direction. Recent archival discoveries suggest that Brodovitch reframed this graphic “problem” into curriculum for his classes at the Pennsylvania Museum School of Industrial Art, inspiring students to delve into a number of experimental photographic techniques and pioneering the teaching of such practices in American classrooms.
“Like a Cosmic, Invisible Umbilical Cord”
Authors: Kulkarni Kavita
Published: December 2021

In summer 2002, New York City-based DJ Sadiq Bellamy and his two partners, DJs Tabu and Jeff Mendoza, organized the first Soul Summit Music Festival: a free, open-air, and open-to-the-public weekly series of house music dance parties set in Fort Greene Park, Brooklyn, during the summer season. The party ran every summer without incident for many years, and twenty years later, continues to receive global recognition among house heads for its success in bringing house music culture—and its legacy of liberation as a sensorial practice—to a broader and more intergenerational crowd than one would find in a club. Keeping in mind its rich genealogies, this article considers the social significance of open-air house music culture, and how various forms of participation within these house music topographies rearticulate the social in a way that refuses the spatiality of peripheralization and the temporality of extinction imposed on Black, brown, and queer of color life in New York City and beyond. In the case of Soul Summit, however, it is not just who participates, but also when and where that matter—in public space and in a historically Black neighborhood situated in a post-9/11, post-Bloomberg New York City—particularly as gentrification devastates the material and symbolic conditions that made possible house culture’s multi-faceted expression in the first place. This article proposes that in resistance to the “revanchist” urbanism of gentrification, the affects and arrangements cultivated on the open-air house music dance floor offer an alternate epistemology of, or way to re-imagine, the social. This lens of “house epistemology” illuminates how the gentrification of Fort Greene brought not only a shift in residential demographics, but also the displacement of a certain modality of public culture by foreclosing the social infrastructures that serve to remediate cultural memory and mobilize Black life.

No syllabus, no problem
Authors: Connell David
Published: December 2021

The intimate relation people have with food provides unique opportunities for teaching. In this field report, I will describe and reflect upon the method of student-centred learning I use in a first-year university course entitled Food, Agriculture & Society. The aim of the course is to provide students with a broad understanding of how food and agriculture have shaped society and can contribute to a more sustainable future. Consistent with food pedagogy, a premise of the course design is that the intimate relation students have with the food they eat reflects their personal values and responsibility for their choices. An innovative element of my approach is that I co-create the syllabus. The course starts by writing the word “Food” on the blackboard. I then facilitate a multi-step process with students to co-create the syllabus. For most of the course, students lead the preparation and delivery of lectures on their selected topics. In this report, after describing the course design, I reflect upon my approach in relation to the tenets of food pedagogy, as well as discuss student feedback and my experience of teaching the course.
Opportunities and Challenges of Developing a Culinary Food Studies Bachelor’s Degree
Authors: Scott Caitlin Michelle , Stahlbrand Lori
Published: December 2021

Although Food Studies has been acknowledged as a distinctive field in Canada for almost two decades, until now there has not been an undergraduate degree in Food Studies in this country. This is changing with the development of Canada’s first Honours Bachelor’s Degree in Food Studies (BFS) at [Ontario College], set to launch in September 2021. This field report describes the process, opportunities, and challenges of developing a Food Studies degree at an Ontario college. It explores the unique openings at the intersection of food studies education and applied practical skills training for work in the food sector. In particular, we ask: What can food studies bring to culinary education? And, what can culinary education bring to food studies? We content that food studies can lend to a more transformative culinary education focused on social, cultural, political, and environmental influences in the food system. Simultaneously, culinary education brings distinct insights into operationalization within the food sector which provide new openings for applied research. We demonstrate the need for this new collaboration and knowledge as a necessity of a turbulent world.
Effects of calcium concentration on up-flow multistage anaerobic reactor performance in treating bagasse spraying wastewater
Authors: Zhou Jinghong , Shang Xiaona , Wang Zhiwei , Zhu Cancan , Wang Shuangfei
Published: December 2021

Bagasse spraying wastewater (BSW) is a source of organic pollutants during bagasse processing. In this study, the feasibility of anaerobic treatment of BSW under different calcium concentrations (60 to 2400 mg/L) was studied. The experiment was performed in a lab-scale up-flow multistage anaerobic reactor (UMAR) inoculated with granular sludge, and operated for 160 days at a constant organic loading rate of 6 kg COD/(m3·d). Treatment of BSW with 60 to 800 mg Ca2+/L resulted in 80.7 to 82.7% of COD removal, 161 to 232.7 mg COD/L of volatile fatty acid (VFA) yield, 0.56 to 0.79 m3/(kgCOD·d) of biogas production rate, and 2.4 to 2.66 m3/(m3·d) of volume loading rate (VLR). The pH remained within the optimal range for anaerobic digestion (adjust to pH = 6.8 to 7.0). The VFAs were composed of 77 to 85% acetic acid, 8.4 to 13.2% butyric acid, and 6.6 to 9.6% propionic acid. At higher influent calcium concentrations (> 800 mg/L), the hydrolysis process appeared to be inhibited, affecting the anaerobic digestion performance of the reactor. In particular, the COD removal efficiency decreased to 55.5%, and the VFA content in the effluent significantly increased due to the lower pH. Microbial community analysis showed that at the end of anaerobic digestion, the Syntrophobacter disappeared, and Clostridium and Anerolineaceae were the main genus and family, respectively. Overall, the results indicated that low calcium (< 300 mg/L) had a positive effect on the UMAR performance.
Delamination buckling of a laminated composite shell panel using cohesive zone modelling
Authors: Feddal Ikram , Khamlichi Abdelatif
Published: December 2021

Laminated composite shell panels take part in several engineering structures. Due to their complex nature, failure modes in composites are highly dependent on the geometry, direction of loading and orientation of the fibers. However, the design of composite parts is still a delicate task because of these fiber failure modes, which includes matrix failure modes or other so-called interlaminar interface failure such as delamination, that corresponds to the separation of adjacent layers of the laminate as a consequence of the weakening of interface layer between them. In this work, impact-induced delamination represented as a circular single delamination is investigated, as it can reduce greatly the structural integrity without getting detected. Furthermore, attention is focused on its effect upon the post-buckling response and the compressive strength of a composite panel. The delamination buckling was modelled using the cohesive element technique under Abaqus software, in order to predict delamination growth and damage propagation while observing their effects on the critical buckling load.
ATMOSPHERIC DROUGHT IN THE POLISH TATRAS AND THEIRFORELAND IN THE YEARS 1951–2017
Authors:   Cracow University of Technology, Cebulska Marta
Published: December 2021

Aim of the study. The aim of this study is to assess the variability of the lowest monthly totals of precipitation, and to evaluate the impact of atmospheric circulation on the occurrence of months with a deficit of precipitation. Material and methods. Material: The monthly totals of atmospheric precipitation for the years 1951–2017 from 19 meteorological stations located in the Polish Tatra Mountains and in their foreland. and the calendar of atmospheric circulation types for southern Poland, which was developed by Niedźwiedź (1981; 2018). Methods: Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), the Mann-Kendall test Results and conclusions. No statistically significant trend at a significance level of 0.05 was noted in the course of the lowest monthly precipitation totals at any of the meteorological stations. In the 67-year period, all the measuring stations saw a total of 499 (3.3%) dry months with varying drought severity. The largest number of extremely dry months occurred in August and April, respectively. In the case of months when the lowest totals of precipitation occurred in the same month at all or almost all of the meteorological stations, three types of anticyclonic circulation dominated, i.e. eastern, south-eastern, southern, and the anticyclonic wedge.
Kulturakuten som en praktikgemenskap kring barnlitteratur: ”Här kommer vi rakt in tillsammans!”
Authors: Schmidt Catarina
Published: December 2021

En ökande andel barn i Sverige läser i liten grad eller inte alls böcker på sin fritid. Frågan kring vilka praktikgemenskaper kring barnlitteratur som barn faktiskt möter och involveras i under sina uppväxtår, är idag ytterst aktuell. Artikeln utgår från en fallstudie där den läsfrämjande insatsen Kulturakuten, som riktades mot barn inom fritidshemmets verksamhet, studerades i syfte att belysa de epistemologiska antaganden kring läsning som ligger till grund för denna. Utifrån observationer av insatsen samt genom fokusgruppintervjuer med deltagande barn och vuxna, analyserades den iscensatta praktiken med fokus på interaktion och talet om samma praktik. Resultatet visar att insatsen möjliggör upplevelsebaserad läsning kring berättelsens plats, karaktärer och dilemma, där möten med berättelsen, i linje med receptionsteoretisk forskning, ses som väsentligt, och på sätt där barnen aktivt deltar och utövar inflytande. Artikeln argumenterar för att läsförmåga är en sammansatt förmåga och att flera aspekter av läsning, som automatiserad avkodning av skrift, olika nivåer av läsförståelse, engagemang för att vilja läsa samt kritisk och analytisk läsning av visuell och auditiv information som kombineras skrift, behöver integreras när läspraktiker för barn utformas. I detta har den upplevelsebaserade läsningen, där barn aktivt deltar, en viktig roll. Detta då upplevelsebaserad läsning kan bli en brygga över till den reflekterande och kritiska läsningen samtidigt som den kan stödja barn i att fortsatt utveckla läsförmåga i linje med funktionell läsning. I detta arbete har barnlitteraturen en avgörande roll.
Skönlitteratur i skolämnet svenska som andraspråk
Authors: Economou Catarina
Published: December 2021

Studien undersöker lärares motiveringar för de urval av litterära texter som används i skolämnet svenska som andraspråk och elevers uppfattningar om dessa val. Detta sker genom en diskussion av intervjusvar från lärare och elever. Studien är kvalitativ och består av semistrukturerade intervjuer som har genomförts med 8 lärare samt 15 elever på gymnasiet som följer kursen i svenska som andraspråk. McCormicks repertoarbegrepp (1994) och Felskis begrepp (2008) om olika sätt att läsa och reagera på texter är det huvudsakliga teoretiska ramverket. En tematisk innehållsanalys är gjord av resultaten. Resultaten visar att lärarna anser att elevers läsning av skönlitteratur framför allt ska vara språkutvecklande. Ofta väljs litteratur med hög igenkänningsfaktor och lärarna menar att eleverna genom läsningen kan få perspektiv på sina egna liv och andra sätt att leva, något som bekräftas av eleverna. Det framgår även att lärarna anpassar sitt litteraturval och sin undervisning efter förväntningar som de har på elevgruppen och i viss mån anläggs ett bristperspektiv på deras språk och litterära repertoarer. Eleverna visar huvudsakligen ett positivt förhållningssätt till skolans litteratururval och de motiveringar som görs. Dock efterlyser de mer samtida och även utom-europeisk litteratur. Intervjusvaren om kanon och klassiker ger en splittrad bild och när begreppet ’bildning’ nämns handlar det om en inkluderingsönskan till svenska förhållanden, som kan tolkas som en slags assimilatorisk strävan. Överhuvudtaget synliggör resultaten behovet av att närmare diskutera förutsättningarna och villkoren för olika elevgrupper att kunna utvecklas genom de val av skönlitteratur som ligger till grund för undervisningen. Keywords: Likvärdighet, mångfald, svenska som andraspråk, skönlitteratur, urval

ABSTRACT Background: There is a high demand for stroke patient data in the public health systems of middle and low-income countries. Objective: To develop a stroke databank for integrating clinical or functional data and benchmarks from stroke patients. Methods: This was an observational, cross-sectional, prospective study. A tool was developed to collect all clinical data during hospitalizations due to stroke, using an electronic editor of structured forms that was integrated with electronic medical records. Validation of fields in the electronic editor was programmed using a structured query language (SQL). To store the results from SQL, a virtual table was created and programmed to update daily. To develop an interface between the data and user, the Embarcadero Delphi software and the DevExpress component were used to generate the information displayed on the screen. The data were extracted from the fields of the form and also from cross-referencing of other information from the computerized system, including patients who were admitted to the stroke unit. Results: The database was created and integrated with the hospital electronic system, thus allowing daily data collection. Quality indicators (benchmarks) were created in the database for the system to track and perform decision-making in conjunction with healthcare service managers, which resulted in improved processes and patient care after a stroke. An intelligent portal was created, in which the information referring to the patients was accessible. Conclusions: Based on semi-automated data collection, it was possible to create a dynamic and optimized Brazilian stroke databank.

ABSTRACT: Wheat flour (WF), pea flour (PF) and whole wheat flour (WWF) were mixed in different ratios by applying a simplex-centroid mixture design, in order to evaluate the impact of these combinations on the physical and sensorial properties of muffins. The interaction between WF and WWF produced muffins with brighter crusts and muffins prepared with higher ration of PF were harder. The ranking test was performed with the objective of identifying the most preferred muffin experiments according to the flavor attribute. The experiments with the lowest ranking scores were selected and submitted to the acceptance test. In the acceptance test, the attributes of color, taste, texture and overall acceptance were evaluated, where muffins obtained scores higher than 7 (“moderately liked”), indicating good acceptance of all experiments. The experiment (a) (80% of WF, 10% of PF and 10% of WWF) was chosen for presenting the highest set of scores.

ABSTRACT: This research evaluated farmers’ decisions to adopt organic farming. It was first introduced by developed countries to minimize environmental impacts originated by intensive use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides to enhance production yield. Although, organic farming offers environmentally sound methodologies for crop production, but Asian farmers are reluctant to adopt organic farming. In this study, a survival analysis (SA) was employed to determine the reasons for and the time is taken by farmers to adopt organic agriculture. This research studied the farmers’ goals, agricultural policies, and attitude towards risk, as covariates in the survival analysis. A multiple criteria decision-making method based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process was used to evaluate the farmers’ goals. Data were collected from agricultural farms located in three districts in Punjab, Pakistan. A questionnaire was used to collect empirical evidence. This study reported that the farmers’ goals were crucial to their acceptance of organic farming; furthermore, young farmers and farmers with risk-inclined attitudes were more prone to adopting organic farming. The study also determined that change in policy and introduce special package for organic agriculture can encouraged the adoption of organic methods.

ABSTRACT: Edible coatings based on polysaccharides have been applied on pieces of fruits and vegetables before drying because of their potential to improve physical and nutritional characteristics of dehydrated plant foods. In the present study, physical and thermal properties of pectin-based films, with and without the incorporation of by-products obtained from the processing of red guava, were determined. These properties allow one to predict the likely behaviour of these films when used as edible coatings on guava pieces, during and after their dehydration. Thus the structural and morphological characteristics and the physical, thermal and sorption properties of the films and of the fruit pulp were determined, using scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the static gravimetric method to determine the water-sorption curves. The addition of by-products provided crystallinity to the pectin film, attributed to their cellulose content, and hardly altered the water retention capacity of the pectin films. However, the pectin contributed to presenting a slightly higher sorption moisture at equilibrium, as compared to the guava pulp. The glass transition temperatures reported at extremely low moisture contents, both in the pulp and in the films with added by-products, indicated that at intermediate moisture contents, the fruit/film ensemble was in the rubbery state at room temperatures, providing softness to the dehydrated product. The images showed good integration of the edible films with the surface of the guava pieces.

Abstract Rotavirus is the main infective agent of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in children under the age of five years and causing significant morbidity as well as mortality throughout the world. The study was carried out to detect the prevalence rate, genotypes strain and risk factors of Rotavirus among the children of rural and urban areas of district Bannu Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan. A total of 180 stool samples were collected from children under the age of 5 years from two major hospitals of Bannu from January to December (2015). The samples were analyzed by Reverse-transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) for the detection of Rotavirus, positive samples were further processed for genotyping (G and P type) through specific PCR. Of the total, 41 (23%) samples were positive for Rotavirus. The most prevalent G genotypes found were: G3, G8, G9 (each 29%), followed by G10 (15%), and G11 (10%). Whereas the prevalent P genotypes were: P-8 (25%), P-4 and P-10 (each 20%), P-9 (15%), followed by P-6 and P-11 (each 10%). Moreover, Rotavirus infection was more prevalent in summer (23.73%) and winter (22.7%) than spring (20%) and autumn (21.4%). Rotavirus infection exhibited high frequency in June (14%), October (8%) and November (6%). It is concluded that Rotavirus is more prevalent in children and various genotypes (G and P) of Rotavirus are present in the study area. Lack of studies, awareness and rarer testing of Rotavirus are the principal reasons of virus prevalence in district Bannu, Pakistan.

Abstract Lactobacilli are probiotics with Aflatoxin (AF) detoxification ability, found in fermented products, GIT of animals and environment. Purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of broiler isolates of Lactobacillus against Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). For this purpose, 5 isolates of Lactobacillus from broiler gut were incubated with 100 ppb AFB1 in aqueous environment and effect of different parameters (cell fractions, time, temperature, pH) on detoxification was determined by HPLC. The ameliorative effect of Lactobacillus salivarius (LS) against AFB1 was studied in broiler. The results revealed that LS (CR. 4) showed the best results (in vitro) as compared to other isolates (L. salivarius (CR. 3, CR, 4), L. agilis (CE. 2.1, CE. 3.1) and L. crispatus (CE. 28). Cell debris of CR. 4 showed significantly higher detoxification (P<0.05). Maximum amount of AFB1 was detoxified at 30°C (97%), pH 4.0 (99%) and 6 h (99.97%). In vivo study showed that AFB1 decreased weight gain (1,269 ± 0.04 gm/ bird), feed consumed (2,161 ± 0.08 gm/ bird), serum total protein (2.42 ± 0.34 gm/ dl), serum albumin (0.5 ± 0.2 2 gm/dl) and antibody titer (4.2 ± 0.83). Liver function enzymes were found (alanine transaminase (ALT): 32 ± 10.7 U/L) and aspartate transaminase (AST): 314.8 ± 27 U/L) elevated in AFB1 fed broilers. Treatment with 1% LS not only decreased the toxic effects of AFB1 (group D) but also improved the overall health of broilers due to its probiotic effects (p<0.05) as compared to control negative (group A). The detoxification ability of LS was better than commercial binder (CB) (0.2% Protmyc). It was concluded that detoxification of AFB1 by Lactobacillus was strain, temperature, pH and time dependent. LS has detoxification ability against AFB1 in vivo.

Abstract The present study aimed to evaluate the diet of the free-living crab-eating fox by identifying the stomach contents of the 17 crab-eating foxes (Cerdocyon thous) roadkilled in two conservation units, both located in the Amazon rainforest. The food items were quantified by frequency of occurrence (FO) and percentage of occurrence (PO). The stomach contents were analysed for dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), crude fibre (CF), ether extract (EE), and mineral matter (MM). Nitrogen-free extractives (NFE), metabolisable energy (ME) values, as well as the energy need for maintenance were estimated. The composition of the diet for the crab-eating fox presented 29 food items from the different taxonomic groups, with a greater diversity of items of animal origin (n=22), although the highest frequency of occurrence was gramineae (Poaceae) (41.18%). Among the items of animal origin, 21% were mammals, 18% reptiles, 10% amphibians, 9% invertebrates and 3% birds. A high content of CF (62.76%) were determined. Nitrogen-free extractive and dry matter averages were 5.91% and 141.82 kcal/100g, respectively. The average maintenance energy was 447.01 kcal/day. These findings suggesting that the crab-eating foxes have a generalist diet with an omnivorous diet in the Amazon basin, feeding on gramineae, fruits, insects, snakes, amphibians, birds and small mammals and have the same feeding habit that present in other Brazilian biomes.
Aquisição de acento de palavra do inglês por falantes de português brasileiro
Authors: Santos Raquel Santana , Fragozo Carina
Published: December 2021

Este artigo trata da aquisição do acento primário do inglês por falantes de português brasileiro. O objetivo é observar se falantes não nativos conseguem modificar a noção de sílaba pesada do português (equivalente a sílaba com rima ramificada) para a do inglês (equivalente a núcleo ramificado). Os resultados indicaram que o nível de proficiência é significante, mas que o segmento da sílaba final e a possibilidade de epêntese afetam ainda mais os resultados. Os resultados nos permitem defender que, apesar da grande influência da L1 nos níveis de proficiência iniciais, a reparametrização (nos moldes de Chomsky 1982) é possível.
