Implementation of the state policy in the Far East
Authors:   the Economic Research Institute of FEB RAS, Naiden S. N.
Published: December 2020

The article examines the measures and results of the implementation of government strategies, programs, concepts adopted in the period 2009-2019. and aimed at the development of the subjects of the Far-Eastern federal district for the period up to 2025. Monitoring of indicators of demography of the population, living standards and development of social infrastructure was carried out. A comparative analysis of the actual and program indicators of development, as well as the responses of the socio-demographic system of the region to institutional innovations in the period 2009-2019 has been carried out. It has been established that, despite the abundance of adopted documents and a significant number of developed and applied measures, the achievement of the set goals, in any case, to maximize the population, has not been achieved. It is shown that the intensity of reproduction of social infrastructure facilities remains low, which weakly contributes to overcoming negative migration dynamics. The necessity of adjusting measures of state regulation in the field of social development and creating a comfortable living environment has been substantiated

Published: December 2020

Aim: To investigate soil organic carbon (SOC) storage and distribution pattern under paddy and forest land use along with the effect of various edaphic and environmental factors on it. Methodology: Soil samples from 12 different profiles were collected from different agriculture and forest lands across the district. Soil samples were collected at three different depth ranges 0?30, 30?60, and 60?100 cm from both agriculture and forest land. Soil samples were processed and analysed for different soil parameters in laboratory.? Results: Soil organic carbon density (SOCD) was found to be higher under forest at all depth range compared to agricultural land. But soil organic carbon storage was higher under agricultural land (1.34 tC at 0-100 cm depth) compared to forest (0.44 tC at 0-100 cm depth) land. Geostatistical method was used to estimate the total SOC storage and density (SOCD) of which density was found to be high under forest (1.21 kg m-2) but carbon stock was high for paddy field (1.34 t C). Zero order correlation and path analysis revealed significant effect of soil texture on SOCD over environmental factors in this region.? Interpretation: Information from this study can be also useful for identification of critical and potential regions in terms of carbon storage which may need immediate attention. This information will also be helpful for the policy makers in management and monitoring of natural resources and can act as an input for further research.

Cloroquina
Authors: Guilherme Alves da Silva Wagner
Published: December 2020

O presente texto tem por objetivo pensar o lugar das substâncias e de remédios nos processos de elaboração de Estado, tendo por ponto de partida o debate contemporâneo acerca da proposição da Cloroquina enquanto possibilidade de enfrentamento da pandemia de Sars-Cov-2. Pergunto-me, aqui, sobre o lugar do cotidiano e da vida ordinária em processos e acontecimentos extraordinários, bem como nos modos pelos quais o cotidiano se tornou uma arena de disputa.  Assim, proponho que pensemos o efeito-cloroquina não apenas em seus termos biomédicos, mas nos regimes de verdade em que se insere e disputa, as dimensões morais, econômicas e jurídicas que põe em movimento. Assim, termino defendendo que Cloroquina faz Estado.
Exploring and Prototyping the Aesthetics of Felt Time
Authors: Elsa Kosmack Vaara  , Cheryl Akner Koler
Published: December 2020

The intention of this research is to investigate how interaction designers may explore felt time through the culinary practice of sourdough baking. In this exposition we share how the physical experience and manipulation/shaping of time in sourdough baking provides an experience of fulfillment and satisfaction. We show our insights on how interaction designers, and possibly many other communities of practice and discourse, may learn from this.

The goal is to inspire the audience to engage in a broad and critical discourse around felt time and to emphasize the value of prototyping a felt time repertoire in interaction design. The research exploration is built on the collaboration between an interaction designer/researcher, a culinary connoisseur baker and a sculptor/design researcher and teacher.
Methods of Indirection: a trialogue between Patrizia Bach, Howard Eiland, and Luis Berríos-Negrón about Walter Benjamin and translating The Arcades Project
Authors: Luis Berríos-Negrón  , Patrizia Bach  , Howard Eiland
Published: December 2020

Walter Benjamin deemed his Arcades Project [Das Passagen-Werk (Mit Bindestrich und Werk mit Capital W)] “the theatre of all my struggles and all my ideas.” As a vast accumulation of materials, it had become for him a literary laboratory for testing social, critical, and spatial ideas. The co-authors here present an exposition where they look to reactivate that ‘theatre’ to search, test, and draw from each other alternative recursions for their respective practices. Their respective discourses are intersected through a voluntary 'trialogue' that plays between three different roles aiming to diverge from the traditional form of a Q&A. The exchanges gravitate around ‘greenhouse’ as the historiographic display structure to the Arcades, as well as to Global Warming. But, the format also triggers ‘indirections’ urging unforeseen aspects that may further research and revisions of the Arcades. For the authors, such indirections actualise and translate, yet again, other dormant aspects of each others perceptions about Benjamin. Ultimately, joined by the attitude to share and reactivate that ‘theatre-laboratory’ with you—the reader and exposition visitor—the actors look for cues that encourage further procedures of experimentation and reflexion.
Impulsive Incantations - Voicing Migraine
Authors: Mariske Broeckmeyer
Published: December 2020

When migraine arrives, not only the body suffers. The voice too is impacted by a condition that introduces itself with such great force. As a migraine-suffering singer I notice these changes and become fascinated by the aesthetics of a failing voice in a failing body. This exposition reflects upon the relevancy of Migraine Music as an aesthetic phenomenon and by focusing on the specific area of the vocal and the sonant, I project the issue into a broader context of language, speech and communication. First, I find the migraineur’s voice to be missing as it is silenced by society. Then, I study the failing of the voice when constricted by intense physical pain and I turn to the voice as it is transformed by migraine-specific symptoms. I study these deficiencies of the voice on a theoretical level in order to approach them through my artistic practice as a migraining singer. The artistic work accompanying this research is entitled Impulsive Incantations, and aims at voicing the migraine body through evocative text, vocal improvisations and a migrainous singing technique.
Biomimetics, Color and the Arts
Authors: F M Schenk
Published: December 2020

This research is located at the intersection of fine art and scientific developments in optical nanomaterials. Schenk’s work explores the application of the science of mimesis and bio-optics in contemporary painting. Using biomimetic methodologies and iridescent substances, she has innovated studio-based techniques to create image viewing experiences until now only seen in nature.

Experimentation led to new processes informed by extensive investigation into the physics of natural phenomena, e.g. the dazzling iridescent colouration of certain insects and birds. Taking inspiration from these unique phenomena, the researcher introduces optical dynamism into painting, via the novel exploitation of iridescent pigment, allowing her to capture the process of oscillation between permanence and the ephemeral, the recognizable and the obscure. The characteristics of the nanomaterials deployed demanded the development of particular processes for achieving target affects. These involved blending conventional studio practices (pigment mixing, under-painting, glaze application, etc.) with new approaches devised for handling these challenging special media. Applying these new approaches enables colour shifting visual effects, previously unobtainable with conventional studio pigments, offering the means to catapult painting into the nano-age.

Complementing the scientifically informed and laboratory-based dimensions of the work, these transformative methods have been advanced through their application in the researcher’s own artistic practice. A series of paintings deploying these methods have been exhibited.

The underpinning science and novel application process developed to adopt nanomaterials in painting have been disseminated through conference presentations and refereed journals, e.g. invited papers, together with selected artworks, were presented at SPIE, San Diego (‘Biomimetics, Colour and the Arts’, 2015) and the Max Planck Institute, Dresden (‘Towards Smarter Art’, 2019). Also see the article with Prof Stavenga, University of Groningen, published by Faraday Discussion Journal (2020) and debated at the Royal Society of Chemistry’s international Faraday Discussion. Schenk’s artwork is on the cover.
High macroscopic neutron capture cross section ceramics based on bauxite and Gd2O3
Authors: Hernández María , Herrera María , Anaya Ricardo , Martinez Juan , Cipollone Mariano , Conconi María , Rendtorff Nicolás
Published: December 2020

The effect of the addition of Gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) up to 10 wt.% in
bauxite was studied and its thermal behavior compared with pure bauxite. The
incorporation of Gd2O3 is of technological interest for the design of smart
traceable ceramic proppants used for unconventional gas and oil well
stimulation. These high macroscopic neutron capture cross section proppants
are used to obtain relevant information, such as the location and height of
the created hydraulic fractures, through a neutron based detection
technology. The study comprised a set of thermal and sintering behavior
analyses up to 1500 ?C of mixtures up to 10 wt.% addition of Gd2O3. The
developed texture and microstructure was also assessed. A simple mechanical
characterization was performed as well. Fully-dense pore-free
microstructures were developed, with alumina and mullite as the main
crystalline phases. Gadolinium secondary and ternary alumino-silicate phases
were also observed after thermal treatment. These present a needle
morphology that might result in reinforcement mechanisms. No important
glassy phase was detected; although sintering was enhanced, the Gd2O3 oxide
main role was found to be as a sintering aid rather than a strict flux
agent. The mechanical behavior remained fragile with the rare oxide
addition. In fact, the mechanical resistance increased up to 20 wt.% for the
10 wt.% added sample. The oxide addition together with the bauxite
dehydroxilation mass loss resulted in materials with up to 1.5 x 105 (c.u.)
macroscopic neutron capture cross section materials. The obtained results
permit to define design strategies of high macroscopic neutron capture
ceramic materials for wellbore and developed fractures description.
Effect of microwave conditions on sintering of hydroxyapatite ceramics
Authors: Faeghinia A. , Ebadzadeh T.
Published: December 2020

In this work, Hydroxyapatite (HAp) was sintered by microwave and compared
with the sintered samples by conventional method. The power levels of
microwave were 450, 600, 900 W and the sintering temperatures were in the
range from 750 to 1000 ?C without isothermal holding. It was shown that the
using of higher power level at the same heating temperature increases the
density of sintered samples. Samples sintered in microwave at 1000 ?C by 900
W power reached a higher density of 95 % compared to the conventional
process (85 %), however in the case of using 450 W power, the densification
trend was almost similar to the conventional one. HAp to TCP phase
transformation was not detected at 1000 ?C; however, the preferred growth of
(211) planes corresponded to circular morphology was observed.
Microstructural observations showed larger grains (500 nm) and porosities
(300 nm) in the traditional sintered samples compared to the samples, which
were sintered by microwave (200 nm and 100 nm, respectively).
Calcium titanate ceramics obtained by combustion synthesis and two-step sintering
Authors: Maitreekeaw Kanchana , Chanadee Tawat
Published: December 2020

Calcium titanate powder was successfully prepared from duck eggshell and
anatase titanium dioxide with a magnesium inductant via combustion synthesis
in argon. As-combusted products were leached with diluted HCl. In XRD
analysis, as-leached powders exhibited a major phase of CaTiO3 with a
perovskite structure. The particle size, observed by SEM, was approximately
240 nm. As-leached powders were densified by single-step (SST) and two-step
sintering (TSS) to produce calcium titanate ceramics. The first step of all
TSS conditions was fixed at 1350C and holding times (t1) at this
temperature were varied up to 120 min. Calcium titanate ceramic obtained from
holding for 120 min had a grain size of 2.18 ?m, relative density of 86.68%
and a dielectric constant of 92. Two-step sintered ceramic had the highest
density (95.73%) and best dielectric properties (dielectric constant = 110,
dielectric loss = 0.02) when the holding temperature (T2) was 1250?C. Calcium
titanate ceramics processed by two-step sintering had denser microstructures
and higher dielectric constants than single-step sintered ceramic due to
grain boundary diffusion and the simplicity of relaxation polarization.
Bronze age settlement and necropolis of Trnjane, near Bor - revision and new research results
Authors: Kapuran Aleksandar , Gavranovic Mario , Mehofer Mathias
Published: December 2020

In archaeological literature, the site of Trnjane, near Bor in eastern
Serbia is known as an urn necropolis, with 43 discovered urn graves. The
excavations in Trnjane took place between 1985 and 1987-1989, and continued
in 1998. The investigations also included an excavation of a nearby
settlement, but the results of this research were never published. In most
of the previous studies, Trnjane was assigned to the Middle and Late Bronze
Age, while the necropolis was often connected with the spread of the
Urnfield Phenomena from Central Europe toward the Balkans. New
investigations started in 2017 as cooperation between the Archaeological
Institute in Belgrade and the Institute for Oriental and European
Archaeology (OREA) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences shed new light on the
chronology and cultural assignment of Trnjane and other similar surrounding
sites in the region of eastern Serbia. The excavation of the settlement area
in 2017 and 2018 yielded numerous finds indicating metallurgical activities
connected with copper ore smelting (slag and ores), while pottery finds
showed a typological resemblance with an Early and Middle Bronze Age
repertoire. The radiocarbon dates from the settlement area and from urn
graves of the neighbouring necropolis also point to a much earlier time than
previously assumed. The new chronological determination of Trnjane raises a
set of new questions, especially regarding the cultural connections between
central Europe and the Balkans and transfers of copper ore smelting
technology in the Bronze Age.

Authors: Agung Wahyuni Anak Agung Istri
Published: December 2020

Dalam melakukan tugasnya kualitas guru-guru terfokus pada 2 hal yaitu komitmen dan kemampuan. Bisa suatu ketika guru mempunyai komitmen tinggi tetapi kemampuannya kurang mendukung (misalnya keadaan sakit), maka kualitas guru menurun. Sebaliknya bisa saja komitmennya rendah tapi semangatnya tinggi sehingga motivasi yang dilakukan juga tinggi. Peneliti merasa sangat perlu adanya supervisi tentang kegiatan guru karena supervisi yang dilakukan oleh kepala sekolah terhadap guru-guru arahannya seperti tuntutan-tuntutan sekolah di satu pihak sedangkan di pihak guru-guru, di dalam diri mereka ada suatu kemampuan untuk menjalankan atau tidak melaksanakan tuntutan kepala sekolah. Penelitian tindakan dalam bidang supervisi yang penulis gunakan adalah kombinasi antara pendekatan ilmiah dengan pendekatan klinis. Teknik supervisi yang digunakan adalah kombinasi antara teknik supervisi individual, pertemuan dan pendapat siswa. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah kuesioner dengan tipe isian. Jenis data yang dikumpulkan adalah data kualitatif dan data kuantitatif. Penelitian ini dilakukan selama 6 bulan melalui 2 siklus. Siklus I dengan supervisi individual, pertemuan formal, pendapat siswa. Siklus ke II supervisi individual, pertemuan formal dan pendapat siswa. Keberhasilan yang dicapai adalah meningkatnya kemampuan guru-guru dari awalnya rata-rata hanya mencapai 74,12, pada siklus I telah meningkat menjadi 81,87 dan pada siklus ke II meningkat menjadi 94,37. Inovasi lain yang dilakukan dalam penelitian ini adalah menghitung signifikansi keberhasilan dengan teknik uji signifikansi.

The paper presents a discrete optimal control problem with constraints on which a method for calculation of migration flows, where qualified and unskilled workers are distinguished, is discussed. At the same time, the optimality criterion in the problem is associated with the achievement of the maximum output with the minimization of the total number of migrants. Numerical calculations are provided that illustrate the sustainable growth scenario over a 10 year period. The work objectives included the development of an approach for calculating the necessary size of working-age population migration and its components to achieve optimal output growth. A macromodel is proposed, which is a discrete optimal control problem. An algorithm for the control synthesis is pro-posed. Numerical modeling is carried out. The obtained results can be used in migration flows planning and management processes.

Published: December 2020

This study aimed to answer the questions related to the effect of using self-regulated jigsaw task as a technique to improve the students’ performance in the course of curriculum reading in English, and to find out the learners’ perceptions of using jigsaw task in their learning. This study is important since jigsaw task could help learners to become autonomous learners as well as to promote cooperation between learners. The study sample consisted of 40 (two classes) female students studying the course of curriculum reading in English in the Master’s Program of curriculum and instructions at Umm Al-Qura University. The classes were allocated to the experimental group (n=21 students), which was taught using self-regulated jigsaw task, and the control group (n=19 students), which was taught using traditional tasks. Pre-and post-tests have been conducted to find out the statistical differences. Further, an open-ended questionnaire was given to the participants in the experimental group (n=21 students) to find out more about their perception of using the jigsaw technique in the learning process. Wilcoxon Signed Rank test was used as a statistical procedure to analyze the participants’ scores on the post-test, and the Greenhouse-Geisser test was applied to investigate the differences between groups. The results of the study showed that the difference in performance between students taught using self-regulated jigsaw task and those taught using traditional tasks was statistically significant. Further, the participants in the experimental group perceived that using the jigsaw task had a positive effect on the learning process, enhanced their relations with other learners, and increased their motivation in learning. It is hoped that this study could encourage university instructors to design and implement jigsaw tasks into different courses in higher education.

Authors: Mansour Almusharraf Asma
Published: December 2020

This study examined the effect of utilizing e-portfolio reflection-enhancing tasks in a practicum course on developing student teachers' level of reflection. It sought to answer how engaging EFL student teachers in writing a teaching philosophy and peer observation affect their understanding of and appreciation for reflective practice and its influence on developing their reflection level and teaching performance. A mixed-methods study design was implemented where both quantitative and qualitative data were collected within this study. Eight female Saudi student teachers enrolled in a teacher education program at a public university in Saudi Arabia participated in this study while completing an 11-week teaching practicum course at a public secondary school in Riyadh. Each participant was tasked with completing a teaching philosophy and six peer observations with other participants within the study. Each task was analyzed for its reflection level based on a rubric developed by El- Okda (2009). Data were also collected through a semi-structured interview with each of the participants. This study demonstrated that while the participants struggled throughout the practicum to develop a cogent teaching philosophy, their level of reflection for the peer observation tasks improved throughout the teaching practice. Their enthusiasm for these tasks and the process of reflection itself was very positive. The results of this study will help teacher educators to create an informative account of reflection in teaching practice programs in ways that encourage reflective practice among student teachers. Future research could continue to explore more reflective tasks that encourage reflection among student teachers.

Early 20th Century
Authors: Filimonov Alexandr V.
Published: December 2020

A brief description of the attitude of the state to the resettlement movement in the 1880s is given. The significance of studies of the 1880s is estimated in the process of including the Steppe region in the resettlement policy. The main changes that have occurred in the financing of resettlement activities with the establishment of the Committee of the Siberian Railway are highlighted. The author analyzes the details of the organization and activities of the statistical expedition of F. A. Shcherbina and hydrotechnical expedition of I. I. Zhilinsky. The degree of influence of the results of expeditions on the financing of related branches and other parts of the resettlement budget of the Steppe Territory is revealed. The key aspects of the impact of the new resettlement policy on scientific research in the second half of the 1900s are shown. A change in attitude towards Shcherbina’s expert assessments is shown in connection with the growth of the resettlement movement in 1906-1907. Using soil and botanical expeditions as an example, we consider the features of financing scientific research in 1906-1910: regularity, planning, joint development of estimates by scientists and officials of the Resettlement Department.

Published: December 2020

The author analyzes the activities of missionaries from the Republic of Korea and the results of their work on Sakhalin in the post-Soviet period. The study is relevant due to the lack of research in Russian historiography. The migration and religious legislation of the Russian Federation and the Sakhalin region, which caused the successes and problems in the activities of Korean missionaries in the 1990s are analyzed. The results of the activities of missionaries from South Korea, aimed primarily at representatives of the Korean diaspora, in the 1990s include a rapid increase in the number of Protestant religious organizations and their members actively involved in solving significant social problems of the post-Soviet transformation period (charitable, educational, educational activities of missionary churches). After 1997 the growth in the number of churches stabilized, however, the churches established by Korean missionaries in the 1990s are still active, defining the confessional image of the region.

Authors:   International Relations Department  of Institute of Oriental Studies –  School of Regional and International Studies of Far Eastern Federal University, Denisenko Victoria Anatolievna
Published: December 2020

In recent years, Russian- Chinese relations have reached a new level of integration of these two na-tions. Being influenced by a Russian “new Asian policy”, the Far East policy of the federal center has significantly transformed. It was assumed that Rus-sian-Chinese interaction could act as a catalyst for the regional development of the subjects of the Far Eastern Federal District (FEFD). The paper examines the features of Russian-Chinese cooperation in the Far Eastern regions of the Russian Federation. The author analyzes the achieved level of interaction between the Russian Federation and China in the Russian Far East; the limiting factors of such coop-eration are highlighted. It is noted that the tough pragmatism inherent in China’s foreign policy lately presupposes a focus on the traditional areas of Russian-Chinese cooperation in the Far Eastern Federal District. The limited possibilities of the achieved volume of Russian-Chinese interaction for stimulating the accelerated development of the Far Eastern regions of Russia are especially empha-sized.
Specificity of Comprehensive Quasi-Political Discourse Analysis in Comments on Social Media
Authors:   Nizhny Tagil State Social-Pedagogical Institute  branch Russian State  Vocational Pedagogical University, Oleshkova Anna Mikhailovna
Published: December 2020

The paper discusses the possibilities of using vari-ous methods (discourse analysis, content analysis, event analysis, ethnographic methods) to study the formation and development of quasi-political dis-course. The nature of modern media discourse is due to the possibility of politicizing almost any event, which is often accompanied by a scathing response of the actors of media communication. The modality of their statements tends to be nega-tive, which testifies opposing political views and polarization of in- and out-groups. Quasi-political discourse is the response to political and near-political issues that are socially relevant, or seem to be such for the actors of media communication. Newspeak is an essential marker of quasi-political discourse, serving as a way to understand and con-struct political and quasi-political narratives. The analysis of newspeak enables the researcher to study broader phenomena, such as ideology, ma-nipulation and power. The paper proposes the framework for newspeak analysis, based on the var-ious methods; singles out features of quasi-political discourse and applies those methods to comments concerning current events that appear on social media.

Published: December 2020

The paper discusses the features of measuring the educational trajectories of applicants and their choice of educational programs. Moreover, it actual-izes the importance of monitoring students’ applica-tions based on statistics and survey data to analyze the university competitiveness and its economic sustainability. The motivation of prospective stu-dents, their academic achievements in the school determinate the professional future direction and the formation of certain educational trajectories in the university. The sources of empirical data is sec-ondary analysis results of Monitoring university ef-fectiveness in 2017–2019, as well as sociological research of prospective students in 2020. The results of the study show that there is a high selectivity for admissions in the national research and federal uni-versities. The master’s degree students proportion in Russian universities increase. At the same time, the key motivation for studying in master’s pro-grams is economic (high demand in the labor mar-ket, good salaries after the university and career development). Despite the fact that there is a stereo-type that «weak» students (with low entry scores) are enrolled predominantly in fee-based training (the contract), the indicator dynamics over three years show that the average entry scores are higher among contract prospective students (this is due to the fashion for some educational programs and uni-versities heterogeneity within this group). The sys-tematic practices of analyzing the formation of pro-spective student’s educational trajectories contrib-ute to the early identification of admission hetero-geneity and adjusting its quality, as a result, its help to evaluate the effectiveness of university develop-ment strategy and predict the amount of budget funding.
