“But If It Dies, It Produces Many Seeds”: Ritual Sacrifice in the Film Midsommar and the Spanish Bullfight
Authors: Meijer Danielle 
Published: July 2020

ABSTRACTWhat viewers tend to find most disturbing about Ari Aster's 2019 film, Midsommar, is that the rural Swedish community at the heart of the narrative not only engages in violent ritual human and animal sacrifice, but does so joyfully. There is a parallel here with how many view Spanish bullfighting. How, outsiders ask in both instances, could a culture take pleasure in the spectacle of watching a creature needlessly murdered in a ritualized way? I wish to call into question the word “needlessly” here, thinking through the ways in which in order for some to live, others must always die. In most civilizations today, both human and animal death are institutionalized, privatized, and hidden away. As a result, the necessity of this death is also obscured. Arguing from the viewpoint of a vegan animal liberation activist who also happens to be a torera, I discuss in this essay how the fiction of Midsommar and the reality of bullfighting reveal both the horror of sacrifice and its potential moral necessity.
Twitter in the Courtroom: Do You Object?
Authors: Judge Regina 
Published: July 2020

ABSTRACTTwitter is a powerful communication tool that allows for the instantaneous dissemination of information to millions of people across the globe. Journalists have begun to use it to report on the day‐to‐day occurrences of trials in courtrooms across America. It provides a faster, more efficient means of transmitting information to the public concerning the judicial system. Some see it, however, as a threat to defendants right to a fair trial. Apprehension stems from the fact that it could be distracting for jurors and other trial participants to view an individual in the courtroom using their cell phone to report on a case. Jurors might be preoccupied with reporters pecking away at their phones or laptop computers rather than with the testimony at hand.
Susan Sontag's Melancholy Object in the Wake of (Post‐)Postmodernism: A Case Study of the Portrait of Klein by Hannah Diamond
Authors: Schraeyen Senne 
Published: July 2020

ABSTRACTThis article is a close reading of a photograph by Hannah Diamond. The work is analyzed using updated versions of Susan Sontag's Melancholy Object theory in a postmodern and post‐postmodern society. Diamond's work is a variant of Melancholy Objects: a postmodern Melancholy Object, an image that is made to evoke feelings of nostalgia. This makes Diamond's practice an interesting case to magnify contemporary pop culture's interest in nostalgia and postmodernism, despite Sontag's and post‐postmodernists' critiques.

Pitiless Cruelty: Cynicism, Capitalism, and Gambling in the Writing of Mario Puzo
Authors: Schwartz David G. 
Published: July 2020

ABSTRACTThe Godfather made him a wealthy man, but Mario Puzo's long years as a struggling writer and childhood in New York City's Hell's Kitchen conditioned him to treat money—and those who made a great deal of it—with suspicion. This paper explores how Puzo's cynical views of capitalism were buttressed by his experiences as a self‐described “mildly degenerate” gambling, and how they are expressed in both his fiction and non‐fiction.

The purpose of this research is to find out the effectiveness of the Program of "Appraisal List of Officers Personnel Assigned in the Indonesian Navy (Dapen Persmil TNI AL)" at the Office of the Navy Personnel Service, Jl. Cilangkap Jakarta. Officers' assignments are not enough if they are not supported by the awareness of the leadership of the Navy to totally touch on human resources management, especially at Navy Officers and not merely a rhetoric. However, the implementation of the assignment of Navy officers experienced problems related to the attitude and behavior. Therefore, in reality the implementation of the program of Dapen Persmil is not in accordance with the career development program for the Navy personnel launched by the Armed Forces Commander in 2016 until 2017 in the Principal Commands of the TNI Commander's policy on enhancing the professionalism of soldiers through assignment, education and training, fulfillment of equipment, and soldier rights are managed with a good management system.

The Changing Perception of the African Woman towards Patriarchy and Masculinity
Authors: Arrey-Ngang Taku Catherine 
Published: July 2020

Patriarchy is a social structure in which men are the primary holders of power, and are preponderate in roles of local authority, political leadership, economic power and control of property. Several African literary productions focus on the suffering of women in such patriarchal setup with men being very domineering and women oppressed; the man is always at the helm with the woman being the silent observer. In most cases, property and family name are passed down within the male line of inheritance. Basically, men are in charge. This article however exposes the changing awareness of today’s African woman from one who is governed to being more in control of her surroundings. Using two African plays: Ola Rotimi’s Our Husband Has Gone Mad Again and Anne Tanyi Tang’s Eneta vs Elimo, we argue that women have evolved from being disenfranchised dependents and voiceless recipients to assertive and productive contributors in their families and society. Deconstruction and Nego-feminism are applied here to reveal how women negotiate their way through patriarchy as a means of achieving their goals of empowerment and determination to effect socio-political change.

Is Family Group Conferencing a Culturally Adequate Method outside the Origin of New Zealand? A Systematic Review
Authors: Nygård Reidunn Håøy , Saus Merete 
Published: July 2020

It is generally assumed that Family Group Conference (FGC) is a culturally adequate method for social work in indigenous communities. In this meta-synthesis, we question this assumption. Through systematic and strategic searches, we explored the existing trends of FGC research in indigenous contexts. We have included 26 articles are included in the literature review. Our analyses reveal that there is a tendency towards taking the cultural adequacy of FGC for granted. A few researchers question these assumptions, and debate tokenism and colonialism in social work. We argue that implementing FGC in new communities requires foundation in local, cultural context.
Regressive and precarious: analysing the UK social security system in the light of the findings of the UN Special Rapporteur on poverty and human rights
Authors: Machin Richard James 
Published: July 2020

In November 2018 the United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights visited the UK. The report that followed his visit delivered a damning verdict on the UK welfare benefits system and the government’s record on poverty alleviation. This article analyses three important themes from the UN Rapporteur’s statement. First the ways in which the economic and social well-being of welfare benefit claimants is negatively impacted by the values-base that underpins current social security policy, second the disproportionately negative impact that welfare reform has on key vulnerable groups, and third the multiple design and implementation problems that are evident as the government moves towards a digital welfare state. The article concludes that the UK social security system is in a precarious position and considers changes which could be implemented to produce a more equitable system including the adoption of a rights-based approach such as the one established by the Scottish Parliament.Keywords: welfare reform, social security, universal credit, poverty, human rights
Translation, Adaptation and Validation of the European Portuguese Version of the NMS-Quest for Parkinson’s Disease
Authors: Silva Alexandra , Pedro Tiago , Moreira Fradique 
Published: July 2020

Introduction: Non-motor symptoms are underrecognized features of Parkinson’s disease that impair quality of life and increase mortality. In this study, we aim to translate, adapt and validate the European Portuguese version of the “Non-Motor Symptoms Questionnaire”, which has proven to be a valid and reliable measurement tool of non-motor symptoms in other languages.Material and Methods: Acceptability was evaluated regarding the range of values, ceiling and floor effects. Reliability was measured in terms of internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha) and reproducibility (intra-class correlation coefficient). For criterion validity analysis, Movement Disorders Society – Unified Parkinson’s Disease Part I domains’ scores were compared to those of the “Non-Motor Symptoms Questionnaire”. For convergent validity, correlations between the “Non-Motor Symptoms Questionnaire” and the Movement Disorders Society – Unified Parkinson’s Disease Part III, Mini-Mental State Examination score, disease duration, and severity were obtained.Results: Seventy nine Parkinson’s disease patients were recruited, with a mean age of 67.2 ± 10.7 years and a disease duration of 10.8 ± 8.8 years. The European Portuguese version of the “Non-Motor Symptoms Questionnaire” total score was free of significant ceiling and floor effects. With the exception of the cardiovascular domain, adequate overall internal consistency was achieved. The questionnaire domains and the corresponding Movement Disorders Society – Unified Parkinson’s Disease Part I dimensions were significantly correlated, although the total questionnaire score was modestly correlated with disease duration and severity, motor and non-motor symptoms severity and cognitive dysfunction.Discussion: This is the first study to translate, adapt and validate a widely used screening instrument of non-motor symptoms of European Portuguese speaking Parkinson’s disease patients.Conclusion: The European Portuguese version of “Non-Motor Symptoms Questionnaire” is a valid and reliable tool for screening nonmotor symptoms in patients with Parkinson’s disease.

Abstract
Background: People living in temporary housing for long periods after a disaster are at risk of poor mental health. This study investigated the post-disaster incidence and remission of common mental disorders among adults living in temporary housing for the three years following the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake.Methods: Three years after the disaster, face-to-face interviews were conducted with 1,089 adult residents living in temporary housing in the disaster area, i.e., the shelter group, and a random sample of 852 community residents from non-disaster areas of East Japan. The World Health Organization Composite International Diagnostic Interview was used to diagnose DSM-IV mood, anxiety, and alcohol use disorders. Information on demographic variables and disaster experiences was also collected. Results: Response rates were 49% and 46% for the shelter group and the community residents, respectively. The incidence of mood/anxiety disorder in the shelter group was elevated only in the first year post-disaster compared to that of the general population. The rate of remission for mood and anxiety disorders was significantly lower in the shelter group than in the community residents. The proportion seeking medical treatment was higher in the shelter group.Conclusions: The onset of common mental disorders increased in the first year, but then levelled off in the following years among residents in temporary housing after the disaster. Remission from incident post-disaster mental disorders was slower in the shelter group than in the general population. Post-disaster mental health service could consider the greater incidence in the first year and prolonged remission of mental disorders among survivors with a long-term stay in temporary housing after a disaster.
