Published: February 2025

Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is now one of the most common non-communicable diseases globally. Between 2009 and 2034, the number of people with diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes will increase from 23.7 million to 44.1 million in US. Complications from diabetes, such as coronary artery and peripheral vascular disease, stroke, diabetic neuropathy, amputations, renal failure, and blindness are resulting in increasing disability, reduced life expectancy and enormous health costs for virtually every society. Foot ulcers are a common complication of diabetes mellitus, and these lesions frequently become infected.
Objective: To determine the frequency of common risk factors leading to diabetic foot ulcers (DFU).
Material and Method: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Surgical C Ward Hayatabad Medical Complex Peshawar. Sample size was 179 and non-probability consecutive sampling technique was used for sample collection.
Result: Out of 179 patients   114(63.7%) were male and 65(36.3%)were female. Mean age of patients was 51 years with SD ± 1.26. Visual Impairment, PN and PAD was found in 32.4%, 32.4% and 30.2% of patients respectively. Left foot was more commonly affected (63.7%) compared to right foot (36.3%). There was significant association of diabetic foot ulcer with duration of diabetes and duration of diabetic foot ulcer.
Conclusion: Our study concludes that peripheral neuropathy, peripheral arterial disease is recognized risk factors for foot ulceration. These risk factors should be taken into consideration while educating diabetic patient.

Published: February 2025

AbstractObjectives: To determine the burden of maternal deaths and its causes over the last decade at a tertiary care hospital of Pakistan.Methodology: This retrospective study was done at the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Ayub Teaching Hospital, Abbottabad. Data from July 2010 to June 2020 was reviewed, including demographic information, diagnosis, and causes of maternal deaths.Results: During the total 10-year duration of study period, a total of 35,660 births were documented, out of which, 32,498 were live births. During the study period, 193 maternal deaths occurred yielding a maternal mortality ratio (MMR) of 594 / 100,000 live births. These 193 cases were further analyzed. Majority of the women were primigravidas 115 (59.6%), non-booked cases 181 (93.8%), illiterate 187 (96.9%) and belonged to poor socioeconomic background 183 (94.8%). Most common cause of maternal mortality was hypertensive disorders 69 (35.7%) while hemorrhage and pulmonary embolism were some of the other most commonly noted causes of maternal mortality observed in 49 (25.4%) and 20 (10.4%) cases respectively.Conclusion: Poverty, lack of education, living far from hospital facilities and first pregnancy were the major contributors leading to maternal death. As hypertensive disorders and hemorrhage contributes to majority of maternal deaths, regular antenatal booking, identification of high-risk pregnant population and timely referral to well-equipped hospitals need to be emphasized to save precious maternal lives.

Authors: Khan Jibran Umar Ayub , Qaiser Ayesha , Zahir Shah Azhar
Published: February 2025

Training in gastroenterology is complex. The optics and dimensions are different from other specialties and so are the patients .Induction into training is an uphill task requiring extensive preparation by aspirants for written exams before qualifying for the interviews and getting enrolled into residency training .They are exposed to long duty hours and weekly journal clubs1The choice of institute is also not voluntary and requires luck and strenuous hard work simultaneously. The capacity to learn and improvise depends a lot on the will of the person and workplace environment. Once the patient enters into the training one of the rotation which everyone goes through is endoscopy suite.
Learning the skills of endoscopy isn’t like a cup of tea or a business trip in which the person has recreation. It’s a stepwise approach based on the sincere mentorship of mentor and keen observation of the mentee for months. 2The process starts with first observing the disinfection of endoscopes in which there are various formalities of rinsing, washing, immersion for appropriate time before eventually using the scope for procedure. Holding a scope properly is inevitably essential as proper vision of the lumen of esophagus and stomachs keeping an appropriate view are governed by careful maneuvering of the wheels.
The major obstacle to learning endoscopy skills is passion to learn things quickly without following the protocols .Its desire and objective of each trainee to perform the endoscopic variceal bands ligation , corrosive stricture dilatation, PEG tube insertion,histoacryl injections,polypectomies, and so many other procedures in due course of time 4.But these things can’t be learnt overnight .Reliance on online videos is helpful but not a proper way of learning. People learn by doing and that requires time, dedication, respect for seniors and most importantly patience.

Authors: Tahir Amna , Abdullah Maryum , Abdullah Khadija Nowaira , Aliya Bibi , Irfan Muhammad
Published: February 2025

ObjectiveTo assess the perception, potential benefits and perceived barriers in the application of Animal-Assisted Therapy in Pakistan.
 MethodologyThis phenomenological qualitative study was conducted from January to February 2020. Data was collected from psychologists and psychiatrists working in Peshawar via individual interviews.10 psychiatrists and 11 psychologists were included by purposive sampling. The interviews were recorded, transcribed and thematic analysis of the transcripts was done.
 ResultsThe majority of mental health experts (n=15, 71.4%) were completely unaware about AAT.  Potential benefits of AAT identified by the participants included reduction in depression, stress and intrusive thoughts. Sociocultural barriers, particularly associated with the use of dogs, were identified to be a major barrier in the application of AAT in Pakistan by 9 (42.9%) participants. Zoonotic infections were believed to be a major risk followed by physical harm caused by the animal but 42.9% (n=9) of the participants were unable to identify any risks associated with AAT. Most participants (n=15, 71.4%) were not willing to consider AAT as a treatment option in their work place, reasons majorly being the experts were not animal friendly themselves, or the unwillingness of patients. Only 28.6% (n=6) of the experts were willing to offer AAT if given the opportunity.
ConclusionThere is a lack of awareness regarding AAT among the mental health professionals in Peshawar which is needs to be improve in the context of its international use in the treatment of mental and physical illnesses.

Authors: Chumburidze Manana , Niminet Valer
Published: February 2025

The availability of high quality image data urges the development of new conceptual techniques to realise cancer accurate prognostic and treatment. In this study we propose a boundary value problem to model  tumor elasticity impacting various types of mechanical stresses on cancer cell properties, assuming isotropic and inhomogeneous condition. We show the solution of this multiscale model expressed by PDE is numerically approximated by means of an Artificial Neural Network Architecture based on generalised Fourier decomposition. The connective  key step is the use of the Laplace Neural Operator, which contributes to an efficient algorithm convergence rate. While further research of this model may address critical points on machine learning  optimality checks, this framework is a rational development for oncologic medical prognosis and therapy.

Authors: Vajagić Predrag
Published: February 2025

Министарство просвете Републике Србије кроз образовни систем пружа системску подршку ученицима и наставницима у реализацији наставних и ваннаставних активности које су посвећене темама из прошлости.
Приликом реализације тема у којима се обрађују погроми и злочини води се
рачуна о исказивању поштовања према жртвама свог, али и свих других народа.
Неговање културе сећања на погроме и злочине представља нашу обавезу како
бисмо остварили културу мира која нас обавезује како у садашњости тако и у
будућности. Кроз разне активности код ученика потребно је подстицати свест
о значају поштовања људских права и вредновања људског достојанства, емпатију, равноправност, док кроз наставне и ваннаставне активности треба да освешћују и постојеће предрасуде и стереотипе. Ове теме и садржаји се обрађују
кроз часове одељенског старешине, грађанског васпитања, часове историје и
друге наставне и ваннаставне активности. Такође, Министарство просвете
врло предано и посвећено поклања дужну пажњу образовању о Холокаусту и
историји страдања у Другом светском рату, вршећи сталну промоцију културе сећања и борбе против антисемитизма. У догађајима током Другог светског
рата српски народ је и сам страдао од истих организатора ове светске катастрофе. У раду намеравамо да анализирамо наставне теме и садржаје у уџбеницима
историје за основну школу, као и пакете образовних материјала који се користе
за подучавање и учење о погрому и геноциду над Србима, Ромима и Холокаусту.
ИЗАЗОВ МОРАЛНИХ ВРEДНОСТИ – ОД ОЧУВАЊА МИРА ДО РАТНИХ ЗЛОЧИНА
Authors: Narančić Mane
Published: February 2025

Сведоци смо судбоносних догађаја који су се дешавали на
Космету. Масакр у Старом Грацку, минирање аутобуса у Ливадицама, рафали
у дечаке у Гораждевцу, масовно киднаповање и зверства у општини Ораховац,
страдање породице Столић у Обилићу, погром 2004. године, само су неки од
страшних злочина над Србима на Косову у лето 1999. године. До данашњих
дана нико није одговарао за ове злочине. Знамо да су извршиоци албански
екстремисти, за појединце се тачно зна ко су, али је општи утисак да главна
одговорност лежи на савести међународних представника из Кфора, Еулекса,
УНМИК-а, који нису испунили обавезе на Космету. Оваква српска трагедија
имала је јасан циљ да уништи и обесмисли опстанак Српског становништва
на простору Космета. Случај Ливадице – бомбашког напада на аутобус „Ниш
–Експреса” 16. фебруара 2001. године, где је погинуло 12 цивила, а повређено
43 особе српске националности, била је јасна порука усмеренима према онима
који желе да се врате. Највећи погром наших људи се десио када се повукла
српска војска са територије Космета и доласка снаге Кфора. Да ли је могућ суживот међу Србима и Албанцима након свих ових трагедија, имајући у виду да
једна етничка група до данашњих дана живи у гету, а друга у слободи? Зато је
јако важно опстати на том простору и одржати сећање на ове догађаје, васпитавати младе нараштаје да морају да поштују живот и слободу и да наставе да
негују традицију и културу која умногоме доприноси повратку поверења народа на простору Космета.
Burden of Peptic Ulcer Disease Among Smoking and Non-Smoking Healthcare Providers A Comparative Cross-Sectional Study in Gazipur, Dhaka
Authors: Bushra Tabassum
Published: February 2025

Background: Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is a significant health concern among healthcare providers, with lifestyle factors such as smoking, dietary habits, and stress being key contributors. This study aims to explore the burden of PUD among smoking and non-smoking healthcare providers in Gazipur District, Bangladesh. Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted between January and June 2024, with data collected from 300 healthcare providers (male and female) from several private hospitals and Upazila health complexes in Gazipur. Participants were categorized into smoking and non-smoking groups. A structured questionnaire was used to assess sociodemographic details, lifestyle factors, and PUD symptoms. Statistical analysis included frequency distributions, chi-square tests, and multivariable logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of PUD was significantly higher among smokers (65%) compared to non-smokers (19.4%) (p < 0.001). Smokers reported higher levels of stress (72% vs. 42%, p < 0.001) and more frequent consumption of spicy foods (75.6% vs. 38.8%, p < 0.001). A lower BMI (<18.5 kg/m²) was associated with higher PUD prevalence (46.7%, p = 0.002). Multivariable logistic regression revealed smoking (OR 3.85, p < 0.001) and high-stress levels (OR 2.92, p = 0.001) as independent risk factors for PUD. Conclusion: Smoking and high-stress levels were identified as the most significant risk factors for PUD among healthcare providers in Gazipur. The findings suggest the need for targeted health interventions, including smoking cessation programs and stress management strategies, to mitigate the risk of PUD in this population. Further, longitudinal studies are needed to establish causal relationships.
NEONATAL OUTCOMES, C-SECTION RATES, AND PATIENT SATISFACTION: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF GROUP ANTENATAL CARE (GAC) AND TRADITIONAL ANTENATAL CARE (TAC)
Authors: Abid Naqvi Rubaba , Babar Kawish Ayesha , Khalid Tabinda , Butt Tahir
Published: February 2025

Background: Antenatal care is essential for ensuring the health of expectant mothers and their newborns. Traditional Antenatal Care (TAC) has been the standard model, but Group Antenatal Care (GAC) has emerged as a promising alternative that may offer improved outcomes and patient satisfaction by fostering better engagement and support among participants.
Objective: To assess and compare maternal and neonatal outcomes, caesarean section rates, and patient satisfaction between GAC and TAC, evaluating the effectiveness of GAC in enhancing healthcare delivery for expectant mothers and their newborns.
Methods: This comparative cross-sectional study involved 74 expectant mothers (37 in each group) from two antenatal care models: GAC and TAC. Participants were enrolled using a non-probability sampling method. Data collection included structured questionnaires and hospital records, focusing on maternal demographics, neonatal outcomes, delivery methods, and patient satisfaction. All data were analysed using the Jaffery Amazing Statistical Package (JASP).
Results: GAC participants showed significantly higher birth weights (mean difference = 310 g, p = 0.043) and lower preterm birth rates (8% vs. 24%, p < 0.001) compared to TAC participants. Additionally, caesarean section rates were lower in GAC (10.8%) than in TAC (29.7%). Patient satisfaction was notably higher in GAC, especially concerning doctor qualifications and hospital trust, while TAC scored better in hospital cleanliness and staff promptness.
Conclusion: GAC significantly improves neonatal outcomes and patient satisfaction compared to TAC. These findings support further research and potential broader implementation of GAC as a superior model of antenatal care.
Project Ginsberg and Me: Reflections on an Experimental Translation
Authors: Anuj
Published: February 2025

This paper is a preface that was written for an experimental translation project which was carried out in the summer of 2016. In this project, a series of extracts from poems by Allen Ginsberg were collated that swivel around the idea of “freedom” (a word that gained immense semantic intensity due to the political environment in JNU in February 2016) and then translational procedures were performed on them at multiple levels (of mode, media, culture, and form). The purpose of this project was to explore the signifier of “freedom” across historical formations, using translation as a research method. The audio-visual translation itself was published in the 26th issue of Café Dissensus (https://cafedissensus.com/2016/06/16/project-ginsberg-me-ruminations-on-freedom/) on 16th June, 2016 and must be referred to in order to make sense of the current paper, which is a reflection based on it.
Analysing the “World Significance” of Documentary Heritage: Quantitative Research on the Memory of the World Register
Authors: Wang Yujue , Zhu Ya
Published: February 2025

Background: UNESCO established the Memory of the World (MoW) Programme in 1992 to preserve the collective memory of humanity and the globally at-risk documentary heritage. ‘World Significance’ is one of the most crucial criteria in reviewing nomination forms for the MoW Register. However, research on the MoW Register is limited, and focused studies on the ‘World Significance’ criterion are scarce, making project submission complicated. Purpose: This paper’s purpose is to analyse the “World Significance” criterion of the MoW from the perspective of nomination forms. Thereby raising the world’s recognition of documentary heritage’s world significance and assist future nominators to effectively highlight how their nominated heritage meets this criterion. Methodology: This paper conducted a novel quantitative investigation into the “World Significance” section of 390 nomination forms of inscriptions on the MoW Register, using Latent Dirichlet Allocation as a thematic clustering method. Findings: This paper extracted that “Time”, “Space”, “Form”, and “Value” are the main dimensions of the “World Significance” description, and “War and Politics”, “Culture and Exchange of Civilizations”, “Arts and Humanities and Social Sciences”, “Minority Groups and Human Rights”, and “Oriental Medicine and Society” are the important themes in the description of “World Significance”. Value: This paper innovatively applied thematic clustering to analyse the MoW field where qualitative research is more prevalent. It addressed the problem of insufficient understanding of the value connotation of the existing key accreditation criteria, and selects the “World Significance” criterion for research to enrich the value connotation of this criterion.
Alchemical Discourse among Orthodox Slavs of Eastern Europe in the 15th–17th Centuries: A Historiographical Overview
Authors: Shchepanskyi Vitalii
Published: February 2025

Abstract. The article reviews key publications containing information about alchemy in the Orthodox Slavs of Eastern Europe. It analyses a range of published materials that cover questions of archeologicy, early modern manuscripts, and major mythological and literary narratives that contain information on alchemy. Geographically, the materials come from the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, the Moscow kingdom and the eastern part of the Polish kingdom. Three main types of sources are identified within this analytical framework for early modern alchemy among the Orthodox Slavs of Eastern Europe. The first type of source is known archaeological finds in the designated territory. The second consists of available preserved texts on alchemy. The third category includes tangentially-related stories (myths, poetry and fictional stories in modern historiography), which shed light on the main stereotypes about alchemy that were disseminated via the literature of the time. The article also considers proto-alchemical knowledge widely known in the city of Lviv, as well as the preconditions for the proliferation of alchemy in that context.  The intersection of these sources allow the article to determine the main pathways of transmission for alchemical knowledge and to establish how it had been disseminated among pharmacists.
The Theory of the Counter-Secular: From Origins to Present
Authors: Smorzhevska Oksana
Published: February 2025

In his book Rebellion Against the Secular World, Ruslan Khalikov introduces readers to the ideological basis of counter-secular movements and concepts, describes the influence of various events and people on counter-secularity, and analyzes vectors of mutual influence of religious, political, and economic factors in different countries and different periods. Many of the issues raised by Khalikov require further academic discussion. Of particular interest are such subjects as the meanings counter-secularism has in various present-day countries, the pace at which it develops in those contexts, the impact of globalization on these counter-secular projects, and the problem of the influence of political and economic factors on the religious situation in the globalized world. Khalikov emphasizes that the religious element unfairly remains somewhat underrated in respect to the system of international relations, and is seen as generally less relevant when compared to economic and political factors. Therefore, theoretical studies and practical recommendations concerning various aspects of the religious sphere will not lose their relevance for a long time.
The World of Nature in the Worldview of Religions: from Methodology to Observations
Authors: Kryshmarel Viktoriia
Published: February 2025

The collected volume of articles Borders of religious and natural: diversity of traditions and interpretations, edited by Vitaliy Shchepanskiy and Mykolay Karpitsky, consists of four sections and reviews. All of its chapters touch upon the ecology of religion, focusing on various aspects of research in this relatively young field of religious studies. The first section is devoted to methodological issues, and it is worth noting that both classical and contemporary texts are collected here. The second, third, and fourth chapters bring the research together geographically. They are dedicated to Asia and Oceania, Europe, and Ukraine, respectively. The collection ends with reviews on two relatively new books that may be of interest from the perspective of the ecology of religion. The book is written at a high academic level. The theoretical chapters are thorough, logical, and convincing, while the descriptive-analytical ones are based not only on an analysis of sources but also on the authors' observations. Most authors use literature written in several languages, including non-European languages for the relevant chapters, belying a depth of source coverage involved in the writing of these articles. Given the content of the collection's materials, it can be recommended for study by scholars of religions and cultures, historians, philosophers, and sociologists, as well as to anyone interested in environmental issues.

Companies must be smart in using the right marketing strategy in order to penetrate a larger market share followed by maximum profits. Fierce market competition is a challenge for business actors. Especially in West Sulawesi, there are many MSMEs that still market their products using conventional methods or are not responsive to marketing developments using digital marketing. This research took two samples of UMKKMs assisted by Rumah BUMN Mamuju as field research objects. Next, this sample of MSMEs took part in a Sharing Session with lecturers and postgraduate students at Muhammadiyah University, Mamuju. From the two samples of UMKMKs, it is known that the obstacle felt by UMKM players in terms of marketing is in using digital marketing, in this case social media and e-commerce, which is known as Luddite. The media they use tends to be outdated and has been abandoned or is only popular with certain market segments. Through a qualitative descriptive approach, as well as research methods using interview techniques, UNIMAJU lecturers and students offer solutions and alternatives that UMKMs can use to utilize digital marketing so they can be more competitive, develop their business and maximize their profits

Authors: Silva Castanheira Ludmila , Alves Guimarães Ana Lis , Moreira Gonçalves Aline
Published: February 2025

O envelhecimento populacional como fenômeno global é realidade. Assim sendo, o cuidador é a pessoa responsável por ajudar o indivíduo, facilitando a realização de suas atividades de vida diária. O objetivo é investigar a qualidade de vida dos cuidadores em saúde em âmbito nacional, por meio de uma revisão sistemática da literatura. Foram encontrados 97, 28 selecionados. No Brasil, 100% das publicações selecionadas mostraram que em sua maioria os cuidados são realizados por mulheres, sendo na maior parte familiares que coabitam junto ao paciente. A variação de idade foi de 18 anos até 79 anos, com uma média próxima a 50 anos de idade. O atendimento ao paciente no domicílio é apresentado como melhor opção, por apresentar o conforto do lar, maior vínculo com a família, e aumento da autonomia do paciente. Verificou-se que em 50% dos artigos analisados os cuidadores tiveram diminuição da qualidade de vida, além de sobrecarga de trabalho, e dentre os cuidadores informais mais da metade dizem estar insatisfeitos com a sua saúde, e apresentam problemas com alcoolismo. Há uma diminuição da qualidade de vida, seguida por um aumento de sobrecarga nos cuidadores em saúde no Brasil, embora sejam necessários mais estudos acerca do tema.

Bølgerne er gået højt i den danske debat om VM i fodbold i Qatar. Centralt i kritikken og opfordringerne til boykot er, at landet igen og igen beskyldes for ikke at overholde internationale standarder for migrantarbejderes arbejdsvilkår og rettigheder. Men hvorfor har Qatar ikke fået styr på problemerne med migrantarbejdernes vilkår og dermed dæmpet kritikken?

Efter finanskrisen i 2008 begyndte indenrigspolitiske hensyn at veje tungere end internationalt lederskab for USA. Uanset, hvem der vinder det amerikanske valg i år, er der ikke meget, som tyder på, at ’de go- de gamle dage’ med Pax Americana vender tilbage.
Dronesværmeri
Authors: Linden-Vørnle Michael
Published: February 2025

Brugen af droner er i vækst. En ny banebrydende anvendelse er de såkaldte dronesvæme, hvor flere eller mange droner fungerer samlet som ét system. Denne brug af droner har store perspektiver til forskning og andre civile formål, men kan også åbne for et helt nyt paradigme i krigsførelse, der måske kan ende med status som masseødelæggelsesvåben.

Vi lever i de store folkevandringers tid. Aldrig ihistorien har der været så mange flygtninge somnu. FN’s højkommissær for flygtninge, Filippo Grandi, erklærede i maj, at der var mere end 100 millioner registrerede flygtninge. Her i Europa har krigen i Ukraine skabt den største flygtningestrøm siden Anden Verdenskrig. Og til de deciderede flygtninge kommer alle de mange millioner internt fordrevne og de endnu større grupper af økonomiske migranter. Og så er verden kun lige begyndt at få klimaflygtninge. Kommer der ikke styr på den globale opvarmning, kan store dele af kloden blive stort set ubeboelige og skabe helt uoverskuelige folkevandringer.

’Flygtningekrisen’ i 2015 og 2016 har polariseret Tyskland. I dag mere end seks år senere synes det klart, at krisestemningen fra dengang var overdreven. Selvom der er store udfordringer, peger alle tal og undersøgelser på, at integrationen af flygtningene går over al forventning og bliver godt for den tyske økonomi.

Une classe inclusive au primaire : un cas d’école
Authors: Tremblay Philippe
Published: February 2025

Dans le cadre d’une recherche-action financée par le Conseil de recherches en sciences humaines (CRSH) portant sur la mise en oeuvre d’un coenseignement intensif en 2e année primaire au Québec, quelques élèves handicapés ou en difficulté d’adaptation ou d’apprentissage (EHDAA) ont été regroupés à temps plein au sein d’une même classe ordinaire avec d’autres élèves sans difficulté particulière durant une année scolaire. Ainsi, une prise en compte de la diversité s’est effectuée en « coulisses » pour la composition de la classe et l’attribution des ressources pour organiser le coenseignement qui, sur « scène », visait à offrir un enseignement commun sur les finalités et objectifs, mais différencié dans un contexte le plus inclusif possible. Cette étude de cas (Yin, 2009) analyse, sur la base des neuf conditions du coenseignement (Tremblay, 2023a, 2023b), la manière dont s’est opérationnalisé le dispositif de coenseignement dans cette école.
Entendre les voix des jeunes de groupes marginalisés afin de prendre en compte la diversité en contexte éducatif : une métasynthèse de type descriptif
Authors: Adams Gabrielle , Rousseau Nadia , Borri-Anadon Corina
Published: February 2025

La prise en compte de la diversité revêt une importance capitale dans notre société et tout particulièrement dans les milieux éducatifs. Bien que cette orientation soit prégnante dans les discours politiques ou dans ceux des acteurs et actrices du milieu de l’éducation, force est de constater que les expériences scolaires des jeunes de groupes marginalisés semblent témoigner que cette prise en compte ne leur permet pas de ressentir un bienêtre à l’école. Pour contribuer à la compréhension de cet écart, le présent article fait état des résultats issus d’une métasynthèse descriptive ayant analysé un corpus de 18 recherches qualitatives portant sur la prise en compte de la diversité en contexte éducatif en s’attardant aux voix de ces jeunes. Des constats et des recommandations ont été relevés des écrits scientifiques, puis ont été mis en relation avec les propos des jeunes s’étant exprimés sur la prise en compte de la diversité à l’école dans le cadre du 6e séminaire annuel du Réseau de recherche et de valorisation de la recherche sur le bien-être et la réussite en contexte de diversité (RÉVERBÈRE).
MOROCCAN FACEBOOKERS AND THE VISUAL RETHORIC OF POLITICAL NEGATION
Authors: Faddouli Driss
Published: February 2025

This paper attempts to unravel the underlying dialectics of subversion that gives rise to a counter-hegemonic political consciousness in Moroccan Facebookers’ visual narratives (notably, cartoons and image-macros) about Moroccan politics. It argues that these cartoons and image-macros construct and articulate a rhetorically counter-hegemonic discourse of political negation through generating ideographs that, in turn, animate a variety of antagonisms dismantling the state’s discourse (the public transcript). I will base my analysis on the assumption that the emergence of a political counter-hegemony basically translates an actual change in reality wherein stronger changes in political discourse are constantly sustained and fostered. In this sense, the visual rhetoric of political negation offers itself as a pertinent framework that better explains and accounts for the discursive and non-discursive strategies of the counter-hegemonic discourse fostered by the visual narratives in this paper. For this purpose, I will particularly resort to this theoretical construct because it retains the power to encompass and synthesize the theoretical insights provided by major theorists such as Calvin McGee (1980), Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe (1985), James Scott (1990), and Kevin Michael Deluca (1999. As such, I shall exercise and operate four concepts to investigate the visual narratives in concern: the notions of infra-politics, articulation, antagonism, and ideograph. Initially, I proceed by providing a brief overview of different networked uses and practices displayed by most of Moroccan Facebookers, then I conceptually locate these visual narratives within the theories of transgression, and, finally, I delineate some stronger instances of this Moroccan counter-hegemonic political consciousness.
THE EDUCATIONAL DISCOURSE ON JAPAN IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA UNDER HABSBURG MONARCHY
Authors: Inaba Mitsutoshi
Published: February 2025

Mutual relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Japan date back to the beginning of the 20th century, i.e. during the period of Austro-Hungarian rule over Bosnia and Herzegovina. At that time, Japanese interest in Bosnia and Herzegovina was based on the need to establish an efficient model for ruling over Taiwan, i.e. his first colony. In other words, Japan was primarily interested in the system of colonial administration in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and not in its history and culture. In this context, the paper questions whether there was interest in Japan from the Bosnian side at the same time, that is, the possible reasons for the existence of such interest. The focus of the research is the activities of primary and secondary school teachers who at that time were the main carriers of cultural life in Bosnia and Herzegovina, i.e. the following research questions: “Why were some teachers from Bosnia and Herzegovina interested in Japan?” and “In what way were they trying to attract the attention of their readers by referring to Japan?”. The research is based on the analysis of the discourse about Japan present in the texts published in the Bosnian educational periodicals of the time (Školski vjesnik, Učiteljska zora and Srpska škola). The results of the research indicate that some Bosnian educators from that period actively observed, understood and used their knowledge about Japan, with the primary goal of sensitizing the public for the improvement of existing educational practices in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also for promoting other positive solutions for improving the quality of life of its citizens.
THE GEOGRAPHY OF THE EUROPEAN FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS: A BALKANS PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Sági Judit , Engelberth István , Fajt Balázs
Published: February 2025

The study aims to present the changing role of the Southwest European countries in the continent’s football life from a basic sport-geographical perspective by analyzing the achievements and participation of these countries in the European Championships. The aim of the present paper is to explore how the differences observed on the continent are reflected in Balkans and what changes have taken place between 1960 and 2021. The study focuses on the flow of goods and services with a special attention to the region under scrutiny, in particular on the migration of players from the Balkans to other football regions and vice versa.Respectively, the findings of the study are based on the statistics of the European Football Championships. The results show that integration has also reached football, therefore, after the collapse of communist regimes, the region has become part of the global player flow, with the main direction being Western Europe and to a lesser extent Latin Europe, too. At the same time, football has increasingly become a vehicle of national pride and identity.
