GELENEKTEN MODERNİZME KADININ ŞİİRE YANSIMASI: ÂŞIK VEYSEL VE ORHAN VELİ ÖRNEĞİ
Authors: GÜL Mehmet
Published: September 2023

Bu çalışmada kadının gelenek ve modernizm bağlamında Âşık Veysel ve Orhan Veli şiirine nasıl yansıdığı üzerinde durulmaktadır. Âşık Veysel şiirinde aşk, geleneksel düzlemde, içtenliğin öne çıktığı bir bakış açısıyla ele alınır. Kadına yönelik söylem, geleneğin dışına çıkmaz. Cinsellik örtülü bir şekilde işlenmekle birlikte kadın, kendi aslî özellikleriyle değil; âşıkta uyandırdığı intiba ve güzelliğiyle şiirde söz konusu edilir. Orhan Veli şiirinde Modernizmle birlikte gelenekten kopan ve Batı tarzı yaşam biçimini yeni bir kimlik olarak algılayan kadın tasavvuru dikkati çeker. Aşk, modern yaşamın insan ilişkilerini maddileştirdiği, şehevî arzuların öne çıktığı bir düzlemdedir. Şiirsel söylem, kadın bedeni ve giyimi üzerinde yoğunlaşır. Sevgili/kadın metalaşarak şiire yansır. Âşık ile sevgili arasında toplumsal ahlaka aykırı, çarpık sosyal ilişkiler görülür. Her iki şairde de kadına yönelik nesnel ve akla dayalı olmayan, duygusal ve yer yer egoya dayalı bir yaklaşım biçimi hâkimdir.
Harften Vahdete Bir Yolculuk: Hamdî Baba Divanı’nda Hurûfîlik
Authors: FİDAN Gülşah Gaye
Published: September 2023

İnsanlık tarihinde oldukça eski bir geçmişe sahip olan Hurûfilik, kâinatın yaratılış sırrının harf ve sayılarda gizli olduğuna inanılan ve onlara sembolik anlamlar yüklenerek bu sırrı açıklamayı amaç edinen bir öğretidir. İslam medeniyetinde Fazlullah-ı Hurûfî tarafından sistemleştirilen bu anlayış pek çok müellif ve şairi etkilemiş, pek çok divan ve tekke şairi bu felsefeyi eserlerine yansıtmışlardır. Bunlardan biri de on dokuzuncu yüzyılda yaşamış Antepli şair Hamdi Baba’dır. Bektaşî meşrepli bir şair olan Hamdî Baba, İslam'ın ana itikadî esaslarına zarar vermeden Bektaşîlikteki mistik öğretileri ve sembolleri sanatsal bir şekilde dile getirmiştir. Onun şiirlerinde, tarikatın ruhaniyeti ve manevi hedefleri, özenle işlenmiş ifadelerle aktarılmıştır.

Bu çalışmada, Hurûfîlikle ve Hamdî Baba ile genel bilgi verildikten sonra şairin divanı incelenmiştir. Divanda şairin harflerle yaptığı kelime oyunlarının yer aldığı şiirler bulunmaktadır. Ancak bunların dışında özellikle bütün harflerin başlangıcı olan noktanın yaratılışın da başlangıcı kabul edilmesi, yaratılışın sırrının bu noktada olduğuna inanılması, Besmele’nin “be” harfinin noktasının Hz. Ali olarak kabul edilmesi, yirmi sekiz ve otuz iki harfin insan yüzündeki zuhuru ve bu anlayış doğrultusunda insan yüzünün Kur’an’a benzetilmesi gibi yaygın kullanılan Hurûfîlik tevilleri divanda çokça tespit edilmiştir. Eserde önemli ölçüde yer bulan bu Hurûfî argümanları belirlenerek beyitler bu bakış açısıyla değerlendirilmiş ve açıklanmış, Hamdî Baba’nın Hurûfî bir şair olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
Fibrinogen to albumin and C-reactive protein to albumin ratio can play an important role in catheterization decisions in COVID-19 pneumonia patients: A retrospective cohort study
Authors: Tosun Veysel , Kılınç Ali Yaşar
Published: September 2023

Background/Aim: Elevated troponin T (Tp) is an important indicator in the decision to catheterize. However, since COVID-19 infection may cause elevated Tp, different biomarkers are needed to make the decision for catheterization. We aimed to investigate the importance of fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) and CRP-to-albumin ratio (CAR) values in predicting obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 pneumonia and catheterized with the suspicion of acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, clinical, laboratory, catheterization, and electrocardiography data of all patients were analyzed. Patients with obstructive CAD were defined as the MI group, and patients with normal coronary arteries were defined as the normal group.
Results: The MI group consisted of 49 patients (66.2%), and the normal group consisted of 25 patients (33.8%). Both FAR and CAR were significantly higher in the MI group (P=0.007; P=0.009, respectively). FAR and CAR were found to be independent predictors of obstructive CAD (95% CI 0.06 [0.000-34.052], P=0.024; 95% CI 1.35 [0.803-2.255], P=0.025, retrospectively). A cut-off value of 0.64 for FAR has an 80% sensitivity and a 40% specificity, and a cut-off value of 0.65 for CAR has an 83% sensitivity and a 41% specificity in predicting obstructive CAD.
Conclusion: A decision for ACS and catheterization in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 pneumonia in the ICU should not be based only on elevated Tp, as it is useful to evaluate FAR and CAR values in addition to Tp.

Authors: DAVRAZ Ayşen
Published: September 2023

Güneybatı Türkiye’de Likya napları içerisinde bulunan Marmaris Peridotiti birimi geniş alanlarda yüzeylemektedir. Bu birimin kırık-çatlak düzlemleri boyunca farklı debilerde kaynak boşalımları gözlenmektedir. Bu çalışmada Acıpayam (Denizli) ilçesi batısında Marmaris peridotiti ile etkileşimi olan yüzey ve yeraltısularının hidrojeokimyasal özellikleri incelenmiştir. İnceleme alanında yüzey sularının Mg-HCO3 su sınıfında, kaynak sularının ise Mg-HCO3, Ca-Mg-HCO3, Mg-Ca-HCO3 ve Ca-HCO3 su sınıflarında oldukları belirlenmiştir. İnceleme alanında suların kimyasal yapısını oluşturan hidrojeokimyasal süreçlerin tespit edilmesinde majör iyon içerikleri kullanılmıştır. Bölgede yüzey ve yeraltısularının kimyasını denetleyen baskın faktörün silikat ayrışması olduğu belirlenmiştir. Su örneklerinde baskın katyon Mg+2 olup, Mg+2 artışı Marmaris peridotitini oluşturan harzjburjit ve dünit birimleri içerisinde bulunan olivin ve piroksen minerallerinin ayrışmasından kaynaklanmaktadır. İnceleme alanında dere sularının As içeriği 13.3 ve 15.7 µg/l, kaynak sularının As içeriği ise 0.36-14.4 µg/l arasında değişmektedir. Cr içeriği dere sularında 8.5-12 µg/l, kaynak sularında 3.5-14.1 µg/l arasındadır. Sularda iz elementlerin varlığı Marmaris peridotiti ile kaya-su etkileşimi kaynaklıdır.
Revitalización del centro histórico de Sogamoso: Propuesta de intervención de los centros de manzana presentes en el sector de Santa Ana, Mochacá y Santa Bárbara
Authors: Cabrera Cely Rafael Andrés , Torres Díaz Jennifer Andrea
Published: September 2023

Sogamoso sobresalió como el punto más importante de desarrollo para la civilización chibcha dada su localización donde las proyecciones solares originan el solsticio. Tras la llegada de los españoles, la ciudad sufrió una transformación: se urbanizó a través del trazado damero, alterado por el crecimiento y la industria locales, y dio lugar a una morfología dispersa, zonas sin consolidar o áreas libres y en deterioro, que se convierten en potenciales estratégicos para actuar. El cambio afectó el centro histórico, y la topografía zonal contribuyó al deterioro. De la mano de este escrito se busca fortalecer a Sogamoso como la capital de la provincia de Sugamuxi y del anillo turístico, exaltar el municipio en la región y el país, consolidar las diferentes estructuras urbanas, dotar al centro histórico de nuevas dinámicas de espacio público y otorgarle un lugar en la memoria colectiva de la población.
Outcomes of Population Surveillance Data Collection Pilots and the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System: What Happens in Texas
Authors: Kirtland Karen , Garvin William , Yan Ting , Cavazos Michelle , Berzofsky Marcus , Freedner Naomi , Muldavin Brenna , Levine Burton , Gamble Sonya , Town Machell
Published: September 2023

Declining response rates and rising costs have prompted the search for alternatives to traditional random-digit dialing (RDD) interviews. In 2021, three Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) pilots were conducted in Texas: data collection using an RDD short message service (RDD SMS) text-messaging push-to-web pilot, an address-based push-to-web pilot, and an internet panel pilot. We used data from the three pilots and from the concurrent Texas BRFSS Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI). We compared unweighted data from these four sources to demographic information from the American Community Survey (ACS) for Texas, comparing respondents’ health information across the protocols as well as cost and response rates. Non-Hispanic White adults and college graduates disproportionately responded in all survey protocols. Comparing costs across protocols was difficult due to the differences in methods and overhead, but some cost comparisons could be made. The cost per complete for BRFSS/CATI ranged from $75 to $100, compared with costs per complete for address-based sampling ($31 to $39), RDD SMS ($12 to $20), and internet panel (approximately $25). There were notable differences among survey protocols and the ACS in age, race/ethnicity, education, and marital status. We found minimal differences in respondents’ answers to heart disease-related questions; however, responses to flu vaccination questions differed by protocol. Comparable responses were encouraging. Properly weighted web-based data collection may help use data collected by new protocols as a supplement to future BRFSS efforts.

Juan Cesar Garcia y la Medicina social del Ecuador en el siglo xx
Authors: Estrella Ramiro , Estrella Carla
Published: September 2023

A partir del siglo XVIII, el concepto de que la salud es un hecho individual, sin aparente relación con el entorno, paulatinamente es sustituido por el concepto de salud como un hecho relacionado con el medio ambiente y por tanto con la sociedad.
 
A finales del siglo XIX en Europa toma cuerpo la idea de la naturaleza social de la enfermedad Las nuevas concepciones cualitativas sobre la salud y la enfermedad y su relación con el medio social, definidas como Medicina Social,  se consolidan   a partir del decenio 1940 en Europa.
 
En la segunda mitad del siglo XX en Latinoamérica comienza a aceptarse la “Medicina Social” como una corriente de pensamiento . El propulsor y articulador principal de esta innovadora concepción de la salud  en nuestros países americanos y particularmente en Ecuador fue el médico Argentino Juan César García, pediatra y salubrista vinculado a la OMS,  quien difundió estas ideas y permitió el aparecimiento de  grupos  de profesionales y de trabajadores de la salud de distintas ciudades del Ecuador  que impulsaron a la Medicina Social como teoría y práctica de salud .
El presente artículo estudia las relaciones entre la estructura socioeconómica y condiciones de salud  y acciones sanitarias en  distintos períodos del Ecuador en el siglo 20  a la luz de las ideas sanitaristas de Juan César García.

Authors: Hernández-Calderón Ruth , Balladares-Chasiliquín Luz , López-Mayorga Alberto
Published: September 2023

Introducción: El cáncer de mama es el más común en el mundo y constituye la principal causa de muerte en mujeres, no obstante, los avances terapéuticos han permitido aumentar sus tasas de supervivencia global, libre de enfermedad. Procurando una mejor calidad de vida surge la cirugía oncoplástica, que combina la cirugía plástica y reconstructiva en el manejo quirúrgico del cáncer de mama localmente avanzado, de mayor tamaño o con ubicación desfavorable, buscando mejorar el resultado estético sin perjuicio del resultado oncológico.
Objetivo: Realizar una revisión bibliográfica actualizada del enfoque oncoplástico en el tratamiento quirúrgico conservador del cáncer de mama, con el propósito de conocer sus resultados oncológicos y estéticos en comparación con los tratamientos quirúrgicos convencionales.
Metodología: La búsqueda bibliográfica se llevó a cabo en las bases de datos PubMed, Elsevier, Hinari, Cochrane y ScienceDirect. Seleccionando los artículos publicados durante los últimos 10 años, en inglés o español, que tuvieron relación con información relevante en el tratamiento quirúrgico oncoplástico conservador del cáncer de mama.
Resultados: Los criterios de búsqueda incluyeron artículos sobre el tratamiento quirúrgico oncoplástico conservador en mujeres con cáncer de mama primario, 99 artículos cumplieron los criterios, excluyéndose aquellos publicados hace más de 10 años, con metodología poco clara o no reproducible. Fueron elegibles 35 por ser relevantes al tema, publicados en revistas indexadas entre los años 2011 y 2021, permitiendo determinar los resultados clínicos, oncológicos y estéticos de la cirugía oncoplástica conservadora y contrastarlos con las técnicas convencionales.
Conclusión: La cirugía oncoplástica conservadora de mama es oncológicamente segura y equiparable a las cirugías convencionales (mastectomía total o parcial), ofreciendo resultados estéticos más satisfactorios y mejorando la calidad de vida de las pacientes.

Authors: Moreno-Pramatárova Mila , Jaramillo-León Alexandra , Ortiz-Palacios Cecilia , Cazar-Flores Ramiro
Published: September 2023

Introducción: La inclusión educativa en la educación superior pública y privada, es un problema que ha sido abordado de diversas maneras por las diferentes instituciones de educación superior ecuatorianas. La Universidad Central del Ecuador, es una institución pública en la que estudian 40.000 estudiantes aproximadamente y esto la obliga a implementar culturas, políticas y prácticas inclusivas, que analicen las barreras y las oportunidades para el acceso a una educación de calidad y en igualdad de condiciones.
Objetivo: Identificar las características personales de los estudiantes con discapacidad, los factores contextuales de la Universidad Central del Ecuador y su relación con el nivel de inclusión educativa.
Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo, correlacional de tipo observacional, que incluyó a 108 estudiantes de la Universidad Central del Ecuador que presentan al menos una discapacidad, y que respondieron vía on line la encuesta de inclusión educativa. Análisis estadístico. Se usó el SPSS 22.0, para el análisis univarial se aplicó la estadística descriptiva apoyados en medidas de proporción, mientras que las pruebas x2 cuadrada y Spearman fueron usadas para el análisis bivarial.
Resultados: El 54% de los investigados registra un bajo nivel de inclusión educativa, 22,52% presenta limitaciones para movilizarse, 17,59% para aprender/estudiar y el 14,81% para las interacciones personales. El 35% requieren ayuda de compañeros y familiares, de servicios universitarios y ayudas técnicas para realizar varias de sus actividades académicas y acceder al medio físico universitario. Aquellos con limitaciones graves y moderadas para realizar sus actividades tienen 1,4 a 1,8 veces más probabilidad de tener un bajo nivel de inclusión que aquellos con limitaciones leves; este patrón se repite con otras variables personales y contextuales, y refleja la asociación entre los factores personales-contextuales y la inclusión educativa.
Conclusiones: La inclusión es un proceso sistémico en el cual intervienen e interactúan de manera concurrente variables bio-psico-sociales. Las condiciones para crear la inclusión educativa de los estudiantes con discapacidad en la UCE deben estar sustentadas en un cambio de paradigma, y orientadas a la implementación de políticas y procesos de inclusión educativa, que incorporen las necesidades expresadas por los investigados en este estudio.

Authors: Rivadeneira Kathy , Ron Camila , Farinango María José , Torres Juan José , Taipe Oscar , Herrera Camila , Rojas Giovanni
Published: September 2023

Introducción: La pandemia provocada por la COVID-19 ha causado un gran impacto en la educación. Actualmente se afrontan los retos del retorno progresivo a las actividades educativas.
Objetivo: Determinar las medidas de mayor impacto en un contexto de retorno progresivo a las actividades presenciales en interiores.
Material y métodos: Síntesis de información publicada, mediante la implementación de palabras claves en la búsqueda (return, biosecurity, vaccination, COVID-19, universities, mask, ventilation, fomites, body temperature, crowding, antibodies) en plataformas virtuales como: Pubmed, Google scholar, Elsevier que sustente la información de la aplicación de medidas de bioseguridad que permitan el retorno a clases.
Resultados:  El uso correcto de mascarillas, higiene frecuente, distanciamiento social, el respeto del aforo, y ventilación de ambientes cerrados son medidas indispensables que deben ser controladas por un comité para reducir la probabilidad de contagio. La medición de temperatura corporal como tamizaje de casos es cuestionable, son necesarias medidas regulatorias en el transporte de vehículos y terminales, los fómites en superficies juegan un papel mínimo en la transmisión de la COVID-19, las pruebas rápidas son una opción práctica y de confianza para el rastreo de casos activos y los vacunados deben seguir adoptando medidas de bioseguridad.
Conclusiones: La factibilidad del retorno a clases presenciales depende de factores externos: movilidad y transporte de estudiantes y su situación económica, e internos: implementación y cumplimiento de las medidas ya mencionadas, lo cual se logrará con un adecuado manejo de los recursos económicos asignados a las universidades.

Rethinking War and Violence in Sierra Leone: The RUF and the Nature and Condition of Insurgency Violence
Authors: Wai Zubairu
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACT: One of the most perplexing contradictions of the Sierra Leonean civil war was the disconnect between an insurgency movement that defined its project as an emancipatory program of national liberation and the large-scale violence, destructions, and brutalities it inflicted on the rural poor and other marginalized groups in the name of that project. A question that has thus continued to plague the war is why a movement that claimed to be fighting on behalf of the poor and marginalized also ended up committing horrific atrocities against the very people on whose behalf it claimed to be fighting. What explains this radical disconnect between the pronouncements of the insurgents and their actions? In this article, I return to the Sierra Leonean civil war to grapple with this question about the nature and condition of violence in that war. I suggest that violence in the Sierra Leonean civil war, and more specifically, the behavior and conduct of the RUF and other combatants during the war, cannot be explained by recourse to fabulous ideas about the psychobiological characteristics innate to certain groups or societies that predispose them to violence, but to complex sociohistorical processes and structures that define everyday power and social relations. Ultimately, it was these sociohistorical structures and the way they manifest and structure power and social relations in Sierra Leone, as well as the failure of the RUF and its leadership to establish conditions of insurgency action capable of transcending, rather than amplifying, this violence embedded in the postcolonial Sierra Leonean state that determined the nature of violence during the war.
Women's Decreased Political Representation in Postwar Sierra Leone: A Backlash or Lethargy?
Authors: M'Cormack-Hale Fredline , Ibrahim Aisha Fofana
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACT: Women's political empowerment strategies have produced important policy and institutional changes, including increased women's political representation in postwar Sierra Leone, notably at the appointment level. However, these advances seem to be consistently met with different forms of resistance, including violence. The awareness among women and men of the importance of women's political representation is not reflected in the number of women nominated by their political parties even as many women continue to aspire for elected positions. This article examines reasons for this trend, focusing on the firsthand perspectives from both male and female politicians on the policies and programs of women's advocacy organizations geared at increasing women's political participation using the 50/50 Group, one of the oldest women's advocacy organizations in Sierra Leone, as a case study.
When Peace Means Nothing: Reflections on Youth Marginality and Agency in Postwar Sierra Leone
Authors: Bangura Ibrahim
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACT: The situation, agency, and actions of the youth remain central to the analyses of political, socioeconomic, and cultural dynamics of postwar Sierra Leone. This article returns to the youth question twenty years after the end of the war in Sierra Leone in order to understand the differing experiences that animate youth sociopolitical and economic reality in the country. It focuses specifically on the experiences of the present generation of youth, the spaces they inhabit, and what their experiences teach us about postwar peacebuilding in Sierra Leone. Using data collected through interviews, surveys, and focus group discussions from over 562 youth and other actors, between January 2019 and November 2022, this article argues that a significant proportion of the country's youth remain marginalized in society. These youth continue to deploy coping strategies, including creation of alternative social spaces, expressive popular culture, drugs and gangs, and migration to deal with their marginality. Significantly a proportion of marginalized youth remain trapped in cycles of violence as they clash with state security forces.
Paradoxes of Patrimony: Family Planning, Youth Volunteering, and Becoming "Big" in Uganda
Authors: Lorist Jeroen , Moyer Eileen
Published: September 2023

Abstract: This article examines the experiences and motivations of young volunteers engaged in the development domain of sexual and reproductive health and rights in Uganda. While promoting various family-planning projects, volunteers deftly navigated human-rights discourses of international donors, norms of religious leaders, and development narratives of national policymakers as they attempted to advance their own life projects. Through the creation of new narratives and their agency, the volunteers translated, reformed, and re-presented Global North development discourse as part of a situated theorization on development problems. Simultaneously these educated, middle-class youth embraced the discursively vague field of family planning as the likeliest avenue for social mobility by becoming "big" within national and local patrimonial and patriarchal systems. Although such family-planning programs do seem to allow some volunteers to achieve their goals, they paradoxically reproduce the patriarchal systems that gender-equality NGOs aim to dismantle.
Resilience and Livelihood Diversification in the Face of the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Case of Smallholder Farmers in Goromonzi District, Zimbabwe
Authors: Chipenda Clement
Published: September 2023

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on humanity, and rural households have not been spared. Focusing on Goromonzi District in rural Zimbabwe, this article employs the sustainable livelihoods framework to investigate its effects on agricultural production and marketing by resettled farmers in the first year of the pandemic. It shows that COVID brought with it several shocks, stresses, and vulnerabilities that affected rural households. It goes on to explore the risk-coping strategies that such households employed. Rural households can be seen as having used their agency to engage in diversified livelihood activities, by which they strengthened their coping capabilities and thus responded to the pandemic. With livelihoods at the center of analysis and capabilities, assets, and resources framing the discussion, the article provides an empirically grounded contribution on the immediate ramifications of the pandemic on rural households in Zimbabwe and how they managed to cope.
From Militia to Army: Ganda Koy's Struggle for Political Legitimacy in Mali
Authors: Hernández Andrew

Abstract: In response to the occupation of northern Mali in 2012, Ganda Koy, a primarily Songhay militia, has attempted to increase its political legitimacy within and beyond Mali, in part through more formalized integration within the Malian army. To justify such integration, many of its leaders have highlighted its combat and surveillance prowess while portraying it as supportive of a racially and ethnically unified Mali, thereby contrasting it with more Tuareg- or Arabseparatist militias based in the Sahara Desert. It has presented itself as a grassroots organization; however, many in its ranks publicly argue for a more Songhay- and Blacknationalist approach to Malian politics. While such an attitude might privately resonate among much of the political elite in Bamako, it contrasts with Mali's postcolonial myth as a harmonious ethnic melting pot and serves to undermine Ganda Koy's integration in more formal state institutions.
“That’s the Difference, I Am Fully Engaged With Art”: Renée Baker on the Practice of Scoring Silent Film and the Matter of “Race Movies”
Authors: Martin Michael T.
Published: September 2023

Abstract: This lengthy conversation with Renée Baker engages with her multi-modal practice as a visual artist and composer of sound scores for silent films, particularly the “race movies” Body and Soul (dir. Oscar Micheaux, 1925) , The Scar of Shame (dir. Frank Peregini, 1927), and Borderline (dir. Kenneth MacPherson, 1930). Baker contends that these films render more complex and nuanced readings of black life and community than Hollywood renderings and that they contributed to the recovery of Black history .
Confronting the Wound: Feminicidio on the US-Mexico Border
Authors: Bouso Gavín Aitor
Published: September 2023

Abstract: This essay focuses on the social crisis Brown subalternized women have faced in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, since the early 1990s. I study counterhegemonic representations of the Juárez feminicides to bring out of the shadows the tacit, and tangible, social, cultural, spiritual, and even physical repercussions of these murders. Stemming from the “theories of the flesh” put forward by Gloria Anzaldúa (1942–2004), Cherríe Moraga (b. 1952), and other Chicana and Latina writers and scholars, I investigate manifestations of the wound in Lourdes Portillo’s highly acclaimed documentary Señorita Extraviada (2001) and Mexican film director Carlos Pérez Osorio’s Netflix documentary The Three Deaths of Marisela Escobedo (2020), along with Marisela Treviño Orta’s play Braided Sorrow (2005). Drawing on Stephanie Fetta’s theories of the soma and somatic analysis, I examine testimonios and other articulations and renderings of the wound as a means of discussing the internalized and somatic responses to the psychosocial repercussions brought forth by this wave of feminicides.
A Pragmatist Account of Moral Prophecy
Authors: Showler Paul
Published: September 2023

Abstract: Moral prophets are agents who aim to transform the customs and practices of their community. They are critics of the social order whose calls for change are often met by skepticism, resentment, and hostility from those around them. This paper takes up the phenomenon of moral prophecy as a way of elucidating the relationships between three key features of a pragmatist ethics: fallibilism, hope, and sociality. I begin by discussing a problem that moral prophecy poses for pragmatists, wherein their commitment to evaluative fallibilism appears to conflict with the fact that moral prophecy requires resolve in the face of disagreement. I then look to the work of Richard Rorty and John Dewey to develop a pragmatist account of moral prophecy and argue that it can overcome this problem. Finally, I conclude with some thoughts about how a pragmatist account of moral prophecy presents a challenge to forms of evaluative realism.
Missing Voices of Ecofeminism in Environmental Governance: Consequences and Future Directions
Authors: Adams Jared M.
Published: September 2023

Abstract: Ecofeminism refers to a broad range philosophical and political movements that call attention to the link between social oppression and environmental destruction. Despite their relevance and potential theoretical and practical utility, ecofeminisms are largely absent from extant approaches to environmental governance (E-Governance). In addition to calling attention to the absence of ecofeminist voices in this arena, this paper explores the consequences of said exclusion and assesses the potential for ecofeminism to inform and ultimately improve E-Governance initiatives. I find that E-Governance research often disregards or fails to explicitly acknowledge and incorporate the inseparable and mutually reinforcing nature of social and environmental forms of domination and oppression. The consequences of this are twofold. First, many extant approaches forgo any opportunity to leverage the resolution of social inequities as a potential mechanism for reducing environmental harm. Second, initiatives that appear to be equity-driven often emerge as paternalistic and perpetuate the marginalization of oppressed groups. Accordingly, I develop and apply a novel collection of ecofeminist-informed design principles for evaluating, informing, and improving existing E-Governance initiatives. Ultimately, this paper yields fresh insight into the way ecofeminist voices can help researchers, communities, and societies transform how they think about societal interactions with the environment and equips E-Governance with the capacity to challenge social and environmental exploitation simultaneously.
Better Together, but What to Prioritize? The Precedence of Talent, Structural and Technical Capabilities in Managing the Information Technology Function
Authors: Iyengar Kishen , Montealegre Ramiro , Ivaturi Koteswara

ABSTRACT: With the commensurate increase in importance of IT within organizations, the gamut of challenges facing IS managers and executives keeps increasing. However, literature is largely silent on what to prioritize given the large gamut of all seemingly important challenges. Drawing from practitioner- and academic-oriented research, we argue that three capabilities are central to managing the IT function in organizations to drive performance: talent capability, structural capability, and technical capability. We investigate the primacy of the three capabilities and their configurations by analysing data from a large survey of 8,356 business leaders from around the world. Our results indicate that multiple configurations of these three capabilities lead to performance. More importantly, personnel capability is a necessary and sufficient condition in impacting performance.
The Most Famous Costume Designer: Reviewing Edith Head's Career through a Contractual Lens
Authors: Lundén Elizabeth Castaldo
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACT: Edith Head, possibly Hollywood's most iconic costume designer, won a record eight Oscar statuettes for Best Costume Design. Despite her popularity, Head has also sparked controversy; many detractors question her talent as a designer by arguing that her success rested merely on her self-promotional efforts rather than her work inside the wardrobe department. This article explores Head's career vis-à-vis the discourses surrounding her public persona to understand how she constructed her image as Hollywood's most famous costume designer, surviving for over five decades in an industry fraught with constant economic and political turmoil. In doing so, this article will shed light on the activities assigned to her as head of costume during and after the studio era.
Sympathy for the Devil: General Vlasov in the Collective Memory of the Great Patriotic War in Post-Soviet Russia
Authors: Tromly Benjamin
Published: September 2023

Abstract: Andrei Andreevich Vlasov, a Soviet general who sought to create a Russian Liberation Army under German auspices during World War II, has been the focal point of debates about wartime collaboration that reflect deep divides in memory of the Great Patriotic War and the Stalin era in post-Soviet Russia. Memory entrepreneurs in the literary world, the Orthodox Church and the historical profession have reappropriated Vlasov, inserting him in anti-Soviet historical narratives as a hero, symbol or martyr. Meanwhile, patriotic intellectuals in the Putin years have invoked Vlasov as a figure of national treachery and use him to discredit their political opponents. The debate over Vlasov points to the fractured and unproductive nature of national collective memory in Russia.
Guidelines for Improvising Divisions, Based on Sixteenth-Century Treatises, Statistical Evidence, and a Novel Categorization
Authors: Sela Sarig
Published: September 2023

Abstract: Division ornamentation practice (DOP) was an essential and common tool for sixteenth-century performers to express their individual interpretations of familiar compositions. In this paper, I examine the manuals that describe DOP and advised both amateurs and professionals on how to acquire it. By using computational and statistical tools on Bassano's corpus of divisions, the advice given in all the manuals is tested, analyzed and clarified. It was discovered that Bassano did in fact follow most of this advice. To help the modern performer develop skill in DOP, additional general compositional features are discussed, such as whether figurations have an affinity with the original composition and whether the melodic-interval model of ornamentation can explain the bastarda division style. The overall impression of the analysis suggests that the sixteenth-century sources for DOP are too simplified to capture the complexity of the division compositions. Therefore, a first step toward a new categorization system for DOP is proposed, by using a higher level of ornamentation building blocks called mid-level units. I derived from the Bassano corpus seven mid-level units (straight line, wavy line, melodic sequence, rhythmic alterations, arpeggio, expressive, and original melody imitation) . Each unit represent an "idea" that can be implemented in DOP. The new categorization system is inspired by a novel approach to the study of improvisation in jazz solos.
"The Land We Have We Wish to Keep": Miami Autonomy and Resistance to Removal in Indiana, 1812–1826
Authors: Peyton John T.
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACT: The ability of Indiana tribes to resist removal, compel Euro-Americans to their terms, and maintain a land base was best exemplified by the Miamis in the years after the War of 1812 to 1826. Rather than become victims of dispossession, the Miamis reconstructed an identity riven by intratribal divisions that both ignited conflict between Euro-Americans and Indians and brought destruction to the Miami homeland. The Miamis used the memory of their divisions to regain political cohesion under the autonomous leadership of Jean Baptiste Richardville. In the process, they confronted the threat of Indian removal by using strategies based on their cultural customs, while also mixing these ideas with understandings of Euro-American landholding practices, racial constructions of Indians, and devices of Indigenous subjugation. Ultimately, the Miamis' efforts equipped them with resistance strategies that they utilized to conditionally prevent their displacement from their native homeland.

Native Fascism: Evansville’s 1948 Wallace Riot
Authors: Lynn Denise
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACT: In April 1948, Progressive Party presidential candidate Henry A. Wallace arrived in Indiana to much controversy. The conservative state did not welcome Wallace, and veterans’ organizations actively organized to disrupt his speaking engagements. On April 6, at the Progressive Party’s Evansville campaign event, a mob attacked Wallace supporters, causing injuries and pushing the isolated town into the national spotlight. In the wake of the riot, a local professor was fired for his involvement in the Wallace campaign, and the radical CIO Local 813 became the subject of U. S. House committee hearings. Anticommunist hysteria gripped the Evansville community. What happened in Evansville on April 6 was part of a populist fascism in the United States propelled by anti-communism and enacted by veterans’ organizations. While national politicians dominate histories of anti-communism, some of the greatest damage done during the 1940s and 1950s occurred when other Americans, specifically veterans’ groups, violated the constitutional rights of their fellow citizens.
