Dans le cadre de la Stratégie et le Plan d’Action National sur la Biodiversité, afin d’améliorer la compréhension et la documentation des écosystèmes, l’objectif de cette étude est l’identification et la cartographie les habitats naturels du Cameroun. Les matériels utilisés ont été les référentiels constitués de la classification standard des habitats de l’Union Internationale pour la Conservation de la Nature (UICN) pour la nomenclature, et les cartes phytogéographique, du relief et de l’hydrographie pour les habitats terrestres et aquatiques pour les cartes thématiques respectivement. Les méthodes ont été d’adapter la classification de l’UICN à celle des phytochories pour la nomenclature ; et la fabrique des délimitations sur des fonds de cartes existantes pour la cartographie. Les résultats obtenus sont la reconnaissance de différents types d’habitats naturels du Cameroun : trois cartes qui présentent les délimitations des habitats naturels terrestres par écosystème, et aquatiques par bassin hydrographique ; et que la répartition des habitats terrestres est corrélée avec la nature des sols. Ces données complètent les connaissances sur les écosystèmes et sont un outil pour l’application de l’approche par écosystème. C’est une contribution à la cartographie des milieux naturels du Cameroun en rapport avec la gestion durable de la biodiversité.Mots clés. Cameroun, habitat naturel, écosystème, phytochorie, hydrographie, cartographie. English Title: Natural habitats of the ecosystems of CameroonWithin the framework of the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan, to improve the understanding and documentation of the ecosystems, the objectives of this study are the identification and the mapping of natural habitats of Cameroon. The materials used have been the referentials made up of the classification standard scheme of the habitats of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) for nomenclature, and the phytogeographic, relief and hydrography maps for terrestrial and aquatic habitats respectively. The methods have been to adapt the IUCN classification to that of phytochoria for nomenclature; and fabricate boundaries on existing maps for cartography. The results obtain are the recognition of different natural habitat types in Cameroon: three maps showing the boundaries of terrestrial natural habitats by ecosystem, and aquatic by watershed; and that the distribution of terrestrial habitats is correlated with the nature of the soil. These data improve the knowledge on ecosystems, and are an instrument for the implementation of the ecosystem approach. It’s a contribution to the mapping of natural environments of Cameroon in relation with the sustainable management of the biodiversity.Keywords: Cameroon, natural habitat, ecosystem, phytochoria, hydrography, mapping
Rice Farmers’ Adoption and Economic Benefits of Integrated Pest Management in South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia
Authors: Bulkis Sitti , Rahmadanih Rahmadanih , Nasruddin Andi 
Published: October 2020

The study examined the adoption levels and economic benefits of IPM among rice farmers in South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. The research was conducted in two main rice producing areas of the province, Soppeng and Maros Regencies. Simple random sampling was employed in selecting 20% of the total populations, resulting in sample sizes of 69 repondents in Soppeng and 52 respondents in Maros. A structured questionnaire was used in direct interview with the selected respondents to obtain data on their socio-economic profile, IPM implementation, and profit gained from IPM. Percentage was used to present the data. In both regencies, overall IPM adoption rates were high with most respondents were categorized as medium and high IPM adopters with adoption rates of 85.1% in Soppeng and 88.5% in Maros. The medium and high IPM adopters gained more economic profits of 26.9% in Soppeng and 16%% in Maros in comparison to the low IPM adopters. The high adoption rates indicated that although the nationwide IPM Program has ended in late 1990’s, there was a continuous technological transfer from older farmers who participated in IPM-FFS to younger farmer generation. In order to improve IPM implementation by the younger farmers, they need to be provided with intensive extension support for IPM innovations.

Authors: Suwanmaneepong Suneeporn , Kerdsriserm Chanhathai , Iyapunya Krichanont , Wongtragoon Unggoon 
Published: October 2020

This study analysed the factors affecting the adoption of organic rice production in Chachoengsao Province, Thailand. Primary data were collected through structured questionnaire completed by 108 farmers: (58 organic rice farmers and 50 non-organic rice farmers) in Chachoengsao Province, Thailand. A t-test was employed to investigate the differences in the demographics of organic and non-organic rice farmers, and percentage mean, and standard deviation was used to describe farmers’ attitudes. Logistic regression was employed to investigate factors influencing organic rice adoption, educational level, and farm size were significantly different between the organic and non-organic rice farmers. Education (positive), farming experience (positive), age of household head (negative) and farm size (negative) had highly significant (p ≤ 0.01) influences on organic farming adoption. The farmers’ attitude toward environmental concern was the most important reason for adopting organic rice farming. This research identified the factors affecting the adoption of organic rice farming; this information can be used to encourage farmers to practice organic rice farming in the targeted organic rice area in Thailand. In addition, the farmers’ attitudes toward organic farming systems could be used to help support farmers practicing organic rice farming.
Keywords: organic rice adoption, organic rice production, organic farming adoption, farmer attitudes.
ESCRAVOS E SERTANEJOS: HORIZONTE SOCIAL DO SÉCULO XIX, RESISTÊNCIA E TENSÕES EM VIDAS SECAS
Authors: Roque Andrius Felipe , Tarini Ana Maria de Fátima Leme 
Published: October 2020

A partir da leitura da representação do escravo negro nos discursos político-históricos do século XIX, considerando ainda a hipótese de que ela formará, incidentalmente ou não, a matéria bruta para o retrato ficcional do sertanejo do século XX, este estudo propõe análise do romance Vidas Secas em suas soluções éticas e estéticas para a representação do oprimido, dialogando, portanto, com o pensamento social do século XIX e suas cristalizações sobre o negro escravo. Ao fim, espera-se ter demonstrado como Vidas Secas atualiza a apropriação do pobre na literatura, afastando-se das representações eivadas de vícios e preconceitos cristalizados pelo pensamento dominante.
PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Vidas Secas. Escravidão. Sertanejo. Pensamento social.
Gaspar Nicolas e os 500 anos do Tratado da Pratica d’Arismetica (15 de novembro de 1519)
Authors: Clain Teresa Costa 
Published: October 2020

Comemora-se em 2019 (15 de Novembro) os quinhentos anos do Tratado da Pratica d’Arismetica de Gaspar Nicolas. Esta obra foi o primeiro tratado de aritmética prática de autor português publicado em Portugal. Pertence a um conjunto de livros que entraram em cena numa época marcada por uma vontade de perpetuar na forma escrita o conhecimento outrora transmitido oralmente. Para esta mudança contribuíram a emancipação das línguas vernáculas relativamente ao latim e a eclosão da imprensa. O tratado insere-se ainda numa época de grande desenvolvimento comercial, com necessidades de modelos, para programar os grandes negócios associados à expansão marítima e comercial, utilizando algoritmos apoiados na vulgarização do cálculo com os números indo-árabes. À semelhança de outras obras para o mesmo fim, o tratado de Gaspar Nicolas refere alguns pontos de negócio e trata problemas ligados ao «Novo Mundo». São exemplo disso os enunciados sobre o negócio de especiarias com as respetivas quebras na mercadoria devido às más condições das viagens, uma realidade sentida por navegantes e mercadores. O Tratado da Pratica d’Arismetica aborda ainda temas «clássicos», tais como, como as progressões, raízes quadradas e cúbicas, os problemas para determinar números, entre outros que, embora desligados do mundo mercantil, assumiram um lugar de destaque no saber matemático da época. Estes temas estão associados a processos calculatórios, contudo, apresentam esboços de um ideal muito próximo do pensamento matemático. O conhecimento dos algoritmos das operações básicas e a consolidação da sua prática através de problemas é uma vertente de importância didático-pedagógica crucial e está presente no tratado e nas preocupações de bem ensinar do seu autor. Na obra destacam-se três princípios: realizar a transcrição do conhecimento oral para o escrito, explorar as vantagens da matemática calculatória, algorítmica e comercial, introduzir temas matemáticos que aparentemente nada têm a ver com os aspetos comerciais.

The results of the investigations of resistance winter common wheat varieties to leaf rust are given. The high resistance to the pathogen manifest varieties that contain resistance genes: Lr9, Lr19, Lr37, Lr42 + Lr24, Lr43 (Lr21 + Lr39) + Lr24, Lr9 + Lr26, Lr10 + Lr24 are ascertained. The genes Lr13, Lr34, Lr37 in combination with other resistance genes provides long-term protection to leaf rust wheat. Winter wheat varieties, created at the V. M. Remeslo Myronivka Institute of Wheat, contain resistance genes Lr23, Lr24, Lr26, Lr34. The varieties Vesta, Snizhana, Demetra are protected by the resistance genes Lr26 + Lr34, variety Zolotokolosa– Lr24 + Lr34, Ekonomka – Lr3 + Lr26, Myronivska storichna – Lr3 + Lr23 + Lr10 + Lr26. The allele Lr34 (+) is contained in varieties: Kryzhynka, Vesta, Snizhana, Volodarka, Demetra, Vdiachna, Pamiati Remesla, Sviatkova, Podolianka, Berehynia myronivska, MIP Dniprianka, and Balada myronivska. Sustainability is an important element of an integrated system of plant protection against many diseases, and to ensure increased yields it is necessary to create and distribute sustainable varieties that will be an environmentally promising way to develop the agro-industrial complex of Ukraine.

Bucking the Artworld Tide
Authors: Sechrest Molly 
Published: October 2020

Abstract
The author reviews Bucking the Artworld Tide: Reflections on Art, Pseudo Art, Art Education & Theory, a collection of essays on the visual arts by Michelle Marder Kamhi. In her view, Kamhi presents a compelling case against the modernist and postmodernist inventions that have come to dominate the artworld since the early twentieth century—from abstract work to “conceptual art.” Citing countless paintings, sculptures, and works of purported art, these essays (informed by the principles of Rand’s aesthetic theory) offer sparkling nuggets of insight into what art is, what it is not, and why.
El Fenómeno de la Agresión en el Liceo. Un estudio descriptivo de la percepción de los jóvenes de nueve liceos urbano-populares de la Región Metropolitana
Authors: Ramos Pavez Carla , Redondo Rojo Jesús Ma. 
Published: October 2020

A partir de la década de los ochenta, el tema de la violencia y la agresión, ha comenzado a adquirir importancia asociado al desarrollo de las temáticas juventud y pobreza.Uno de los ejes de análisis para este fenómeno ha estado situado en la Escuela, toda vez que además de un espacio de instrucción formal, se constituye en un agente de construcción y reproducción de la sociedad y su convivencia.La presente investigación intenta aportar a la comprensión del fenómeno agresivo que tiene lugar en el contexto escolar de enseñanza media urbano-popular, a partir de la percepción de los jóvenes de nueve liceos de la Región Metropolitana.Los principales hallazgos establecen que las agresiones comportadas en estos liceos no remitirían a la condición juvenil, sino a un contexto relacional complejo, mediado por las características de la organización y la cultura escolar. De hecho, es posible dar cuenta de un contexto escolar que se dinamiza entorno a expresiones de agresión, y en esa medida, favorece su desarrollo y reproducción.Finalmente, para abordar esta problemática en el contexto educacional, se invita a los actores que inciden en él (tanto a nivel macro-estructural como local), a considerar la urgente necesidad de responder al desarrollo y consolidación de una convivencia escolar y social sana, basada en la construcción de un proceso de integración sociocultural, donde tanto el respeto de los otros y su diversidad; como el ejercicio del poder, representen los núcleos de desarrollo psicosocial de todos los actores involucrados.
La Psicología Social Comunitaria en América Latina como Psicología Social Crítica
Authors: Jiménez-Domínguez Bernardo 
Published: October 2020

En este artículo se describe el proceso de desarrollo de la psicología social comunitaria. El inicio coincide con al crítica al modelo médico y las insuficiencias de la psicoterapia y sobretodo de la psiquiatría con respecto a la solución de los problemas psicológicos en el marco del replanteamiento de la relevancia de las ciencias sociales en la explicación de la realidad latinoamericana y el compromiso con la solución de sus problemas.Esto coincide con el periodo de la crisis de la psicología social dominante. La respuesta a dicha crisis es una psicología crítica reinsertada en el campo de las ciencias sociales y de las perspectivas cualitativas, críticas rechazadas por el peso de la psicología social vigente. De estos desarrollos se deriva la relación con la emergencia internacional de una psicología social crítica y la ubicación de la psicología social comunitaria latinoamericana como el principal aporte a dicha perspectiva desde el continente.
2020/30 Self-employment matters – the EU’s response to the lack of social protection for independent workers

2020/30 Self-employment matters – the EU’s response to the lack of social protection for independent workers
The recent spread of the Covid-19 pandemic has shown how economic vulnerability varies considerably across European Member States (MSs), and so does social protection in the European Union (EU). The social and economic consequences of the pandemic have impacted asymmetrically national labour markets and exacerbated existing disparities and contradictions. A measure that most governments have introduced in the immediate aftermath has been that of making financial support available to those self-employed workers who lost fully or in part their income. Most MSs have employed quantitative thresholds to identify those self-employed more in need of public subsidies and have proportioned them according to the pre-pandemic levels of income, on the condition that they have been officially recorded as taxable revenues.Despite their heterogeneity, we can reasonably affirm that the self-employed have been one of the most exposed clusters of the labour market to in-work poverty and economic uncertainty, which proved to be particularly problematic in periods of unforeseeable crisis, such as that of 2008 and even more so that of 2020. This article explores the range of EU-level measures designed for the self-employed and questions their potential impact on MSs’ legislation.
2020/33 The concept of ‘maternity’ does not include, and therefore does not protect, mothers regarding discrimination related to ‘childcare’ (BE)

2020/33 The concept of ‘maternity’ does not include, and therefore does not protect, mothers regarding discrimination related to ‘childcare’ (BE)
The Brussels Labour Court of Appeal, in a judgment of 10 September 2019, has ruled that the notion of ‘maternity’ contained in the Belgian Gender Act does not go as far as protecting mothers against discrimination with regards to childcare, since this would confirm a patriarchal role pattern. However, a recent legislative change introducing ‘paternity’ as a protected ground might cast doubt on the relevance of this ruling for the future.
2020/34 Challenge to validity of Workplace Relations Act 2015 unsuccessful (IR)

2020/34 Challenge to validity of Workplace Relations Act 2015 unsuccessful (IR)
A recent challenge to the constitutionality of the Irish Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) has failed. The applicant in the case at hand argued that the WRC was unconstitutional for two reasons: (a) that the WRC carries out the administration of justice in breach of the general constitutional rule that only the courts may administer justice; and (b) several of the statutory procedures of the WRC were so deficient that they failed to vindicate the applicant’s personal constitutional rights. The High Court of Ireland dismissed both arguments.
Le vécu des infirmières sur la sédation palliative pratiquée selon les recommandations suisses de 2005 : une étude exploratoire
Authors: Tomczyk Martyna , Schumacher Bernard N. 
Published: October 2020

De nombreuses études internationales ont démontré que le processus de la sédation palliative dans un contexte de fin de vie peut être mal vécu par les infirmières, voire provoquer une détresse émotionnelle. Toutefois, le vécu des infirmières exerçant en soins palliatifs en Suisse n’a jamais été exploré, à notre connaissance. L’objectif de notre étude était donc de connaître et de décrire le vécu des infirmières relatif au processus de la sédation palliative basé sur les recommandations suisses de 2005. Afin d’atteindre cet objectif, une étude qualitative exploratoire monocentrique avec entretiens individuels compréhensifs a été privilégiée. Au total, dix infirmières ont été sollicitées et neuf ont effectivement participé. Après retranscription, huit entretiens ont été finalement inclus dans l’analyse. Cette dernière a montré que les infirmières vivaient le processus de la sédation palliative d’une manière méfiante, défiante ou encore confiante, ce qui était lié à la durée d’exercice en soins palliatifs. Ces résultats suggèrent que les recommandations suisses de 2005 ne protègent pas les infirmières contre l’incertitude liée au processus de la sédation palliative. Il s’avère donc nécessaire qu’une étude multicentrique nationale soit développée pour consolider ces résultats.
Meaning and Matter in Psychiatry: A Historical View and New Approach
Authors: Slagstad Ketil 
Published: October 2020

In this article, I argue that a person-centered approach in psychiatry needs to pay attention to how mental illnesses are historically constituted and products of biological, social, psychological and cultural factors. Even if the ambition of the biopsychosocial model and the medical network model was to break with reductionist understandings of (mental) illness, I argue that these models risk stabilising, rather than deconstructing dichotomies between nature versus culture, brain versus mind, somatic versus mental or hard facts versus soft sciences. I rather propose to re-orient psychiatry as a form of “relational medicine” in which causes and reasons are treated as inseparable and where matter and meaning are entangled. A person-centered approach in psychiatry must start with the person including the embodied production of meaning in Society.

Published: October 2020

Cytogenetic abnormalities are frequently reported in the literature describing the presence of chromosomal rearrangements in important cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML); the rate can reach 50–60% of cases of AML. Cytogenetic abnormalities represent an important prognosis factor, their analysis is crucial for AML; cytogenetic study permits to classify prognostic groups and indicate the treatment strategy and helps to improve the outcome of these patients and to increase their chances of cure. Hundreds of uncommon chromosomal aberrations from AML exist. This chapter summarizes chromosomal abnormalities that are common and classifies AML according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classifications from 2008 to 2016; we will discuss briefly gene mutations detected in normal karyotype (NK) AML by cutting-edge next-generation sequencing technology, like FLT3-ITD, nucleophosmin (NPM1), CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (CEBPA), and other additional mutations.
Formamidinium Lead Iodide Perovskite Nanocrystal/Squaraine Dye Composite based Visibly Opaque and Near‐Infrared Transmitting Material
Authors: Muthu Chinnadurai , Pious Johnpaul K. , Seethal Parambatheri S. , Krishna Nayana , Vijayakumar Chakkooth 
Published: October 2020

AbstractVisibly opaque and near‐infrared transmitting (VONIRT) materials play a crucial role in forensic detection, security imaging, night‐vision photography, and biomedical applications. In this work, the development of such material using alpha‐formamidinium lead iodide based perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) and squaraine (SQ) dyes is described. It is achieved by gradually increasing the size of PNCs followed by attaching them with a novel low‐bandgap SQ dye as capping ligand. The acid group present in the SQ dye efficiently interacts with the surface of the nanocrystals via non‐covalent interactions. Incorporation of SQ dyes onto PNCs yields composite films with uniform transmittance of below 2% in the visible region (380–740 nm) and above 60% in the NIR region, the prime requisites for VONIRT materials. Further, the addition of SQ dyes imparts better moisture stability and high film quality to the nanocrystals. Opaqueness in the visible region and excellent NIR transparency of the nanocomposite make them useful as a security material and for NIR photography application.
