Scientific Prediction of the Covid-19 Pandemic and What Should Society Do?
Authors: Liberty Iche Andriyani , Fadilah Mariatul , Josef Hari Kusnanto 
Published: January 2021

What is the scientific prediction for the Covid-19 pandemic? Currently, as of April 8, the world’s confirmed cases have over 1.2 million, the death of more than 72 thousand. For Indonesia, today 2,738 confirmed cases, 221 deaths, and those who recovered 204.1-3. The update on April 8 today, WHO itself estimates that the Covid-19 Contagion Rate is 1.4 to 2.5. This will form the basis of predictive modeling. Several studies conducted show that currently the basic reproduction number or R0 of Covid-19 is higher than SARS. Initially in the range of 2-3 or an average of 2.5, currently R0 is 1.4 - 6.9. This is what will form the basis of modeling. R0 or the basic reproduction number shows how many people a person can become infected with. If the R0 is more than 1, we are in an epidemic status as it is today, R0 = 1 endemic, and our R0 is less than 1 we have eradicated. R0 itself consists of three components, namely p: transmission, c: number of contact, and D which is the duration of the infection itself. These calculations are the main points in modeling.

Published: January 2021

This is a concept paper of how a primary clinic should be managed in the new normal era, facing the pandemic of Covid-19, but also the possible pandemic in the future. We proposed how to manage the clinic based on several findings regarding epidemiology, virus transmission, and many other best practices to reduce contact but maintaining the service through an online connection. We also highlighted the recommended use for indoor air quality management, which is the use of a HEPA filter. Other devices may be used but in special precaution.
Staff Policy in the Soviet Nuclear Project
Authors: Mel'nikova Natal'ya 
Published: January 2021

The nuclear project greatly influenced the history of Russia. The nuclear industry, emerged as a result of the project implementation, has accumulated enormous expertise of successfully solving serious scientific and industrial challenges in the shortest possible time and with the most efficient concentration of financial, material and labour resources. However, the study materials of quite an extensive history of the project never addressed the human resources. Until recently, matters of staff were considered secondary to the most studied scientific, technical, military and strategic factors of the project. The disproportion explains why the author addres­ses the topic of staff and staff policy in nuclear industry.
Chronological work is devoted to the period between 1942, when the order of the State Defence Committee “On the Organization of Work with Uranium” was adopted, giving rise to the project, and the end of the 1950s, when the main results were achieved in key areas of state policy in the field of nuclear weapons development. The author studies the evolution of staff policy of the project, i.e. methods, principles, problems and achievements of “nuclear” recruitment. The article shows originality of social and demographic quantity and quality of the staff.
The social group formed as a result of external management is suggested to be considered as a special social professional and territorial community of corporate type. The author describes the characteristics of the community, the specific features of its organization and existence.
Emissaries of the Pope in the Mongol Empire
Authors: Trepavlov Vadim , Gorskiy Anton 
Published: January 2021

The letter by the emissary of Pope Innocent IV in the Mongol Empire, Franciscan votary, John of Plano Carpini, Ystoria Mongalorum — “History of the Mongols” is one of the most renowned written records of the European writing of the 13th century. The letter is a report of the mission between 1245 and 1247, when John of Plano Carpini et al visited Batu Khan bases on the Volga and bases of Güyük Khan (supreme khan) in Mongolia. The project provides for publishing an extensive version of the “History of the Mongols” based on two best list of works: Wolfenbüttel and Cambridge. Unlike the Italian edition of 1989, where the text is reconstructed based on both lists, this publication is prepared according to the Russian tradition of archeography: one of the lists serves as the basis, while the other one is used in versions.
The book by John of Plano Carpini includes unique information on the Mongol Empire, its structure, mechanism of control, army, and law. The book offers extensive information on customs and lifestyle of the Mongols and the many Eurasian peoples they conquered. Ystoria Mongalorum is a precious source on the history of Rus’ in the first years following Batu Khan invasion. Unlike the previous editions of the paper, the new one will include detailed commentaries explaining the realia, figures, toponyms, ethnonyms, etc. that appear in the text.
Classic Author of the Russian Philosophy
Authors: Lektorskiy Vladislav 
Published: January 2021

Evald Vasilievich Ilyenkov (1924–1979) takes special place in the Russian philosophy: he largely influenced the character of the movement, which may be regarded as “philosophical Renaissance” of the second half of the 20th century originating in our country. Evald introduced a number of ideas that were ahead of their time and could only be truly appreciated nowadays. In particular, it concerns the understanding of how to ascend from the abstract to the concrete when building a scientific theory. In his understanding of the problem of the ideal, Evald Ilyenkov anticipated the central problem of the modern complex of cognitive sciences: “enactivistic” approach and the idea of “broadened cognition”.
The objective of the study was to introduce a number of previously unknown texts of the 60s and the 70s by Evald Ilyenkov into scientific circulation, as well as to provide extensive commentaries thereto, develop references, and describe the social and political context of the philosopher’s work. To do so, the author uses materials of personal, public and academic archives. During Evald Ilyenkov’s lifetime, his works were severely edited, censored and abridged; the goal of the study was to restore the original version of the works and publish manuscripts that had never been released in the Soviet times. By the end of 2020, four volumes of Evald Ilyenkov’s collected works have been published. The publisher brings these works to the new level, setting a high standard of translation and studies of the philosopher’s global heritage.
Five Times William Du Bois Travelled to the USSR
Authors: Panova Ol'ga 
Published: January 2021

Soviet contacts with African-American authors are an important part of both Soviet-Ame­rican literary contacts and African-American literature history. William Edward Burghardt Du Bois (1868–1963), the most prominent African-American thinker, writer, public figure of the 20th century, occupies a special place. He travelled to the USSR five times (1926, 1936, 1949, 1958–1959, 1962) and had repeatedly addressed the subject of Russia and the USSR in his letters, essays, and fiction.
The incentive for Du Bois’ first visit to the USSR was his interest in the Revolution of 1917 and the Russian social experiment, namely, the solution to the race and ethnicity problem. The following visits allow tracing not only the evolution of Du Bois’ viewpoint (which became increasingly leftist), but also the development of his public and literary reputation in the Soviet Union — from wariness (for Du Bois being a liberal and unreliable associate) to honoring him as a major African-American classic and a great friend of the USSR. The fact that William Du Bois had joined the US Communist Party six month before his death and his relocation from the US to Ghana finalized the Soviet idealistic attitude towards the writer’s life. The essence of Du Bois’ journey was perceived as a gradual transition from errors and misconceptions to a more complete acceptance of Marxism-Leninism.
O Feminismo Interseccional na articulação do saber acadêmico e da ação política: reflexões a partir da experiência de um coletivo feminista
Authors: De Figueiredo Priscila Silva , Martins Valéria Soares 
Published: January 2021

O feminismo interseccional tem sido apontado como uma importante teoria na compreensão de como as opressões de gênero, classe e raça dentre outras, se relacionam entre si e interferem na vida de cada mulher, que acaba assim por experimentar a opressão de gênero a partir de um ponto de vista único. Além disso, a atuação de coletivos feministas tem sido fundamental na vida de mulheres, como espaços de empoderamento e de luta em prol de uma sociedade menos opressiva. Assim, apresentamos nesse trabalho o processo de adoção do feminismo interseccional como ferramenta teórico-metodológica por um coletivo feminista da Bahia, Brasil. Para tanto, realizamos um relato das atividades desenvolvidas pelo grupo entre os anos de 2013 e 2017. Foi possível identificar o forte vínculo afetivo estabelecido entre as companheiras e como o discurso interseccional tem sido importante nesse processo e nas ações do Coletivo como um todo. Constatou-se, assim, que a utilização deste referencial pode ser poderosa no sentido de contribuir para diálogos mais inclusivos e assim mais transformadores. Corroborando, ainda, com a ideia da extrema relevância da articulação entre o feminismo acadêmico e a ação política, além de destacar os desafios da consolidação de coletivos que nascem no âmbito acadêmico.
CIBERFEMINISMO EM TEMPOS DE PANDEMIA DE COVID-19: LIVES E SEUS MULTILETRAMENTOS CRÍTICOS TRANSMISIÓN EN VIVO Y SUS MULTILETRAMENTOS CRÍTICOS
Authors: Fernandes Terezinha , Santos Edméa , York Sara Wagner 
Published: January 2021

O artigo apresenta o fenômeno live streaming (trans)feministas no contexto da pandemia COVID-19 no Brasil, em diálogo com o referencial teórico em quatro dimensões: cibercultura na interface cidade–ciberespaço; ciberfeminismo como práticas da explosão feminista; teoria Queer/Crip; multiletramentos críticos. A metodologia foi a etnografia na cibercultura compreendida como prática descritiva densa, em que o campo fornece caminhos para uma prática implicada com os acontecimentos, na qual cartografamos e participamos de lives, durante maio e junho de 2020, descrevendo-as em diálogo com o quadro teórico. Constatamos que as lives são expressões do ciberfeminismo, ou seja, eventos e práticas (trans)feministas com o uso de tecnologias digitais em rede para o exercício do seu ativismo; extrapolam o espaço da comunicação síncrona entre pares, atingindo diferentes públicos; apresentam comunicação didática de conteúdos científicos; são efetivos artefatos culturais e potenciais artefatos curriculares; quando gravadas (assíncronas) podem ser usadas em outros ambientes on-line; se configuram como ambiências formativas e redes de aprendizagens em que multiletramentos críticos são mobilizados. Concluímos que as práticas ciberfeministas contribuem para a formação política, construção de identidades, empoderamento e fortalecimento de políticas de inclusão sócio cultural de mulheres no nosso tempo.

Published: January 2021

A comunicação é a principal ferramenta para o processo de acolhimento e fortalecimento da relação médico-paciente. Apesar dos princípios de integralidade, equidade e universalidade previstos pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS), verifica-se que tais características são especificadas para as necessidades da comunidade surda. Dito isto, uma população surda é evidentemente negligenciada durante as ações do serviço de saúde, visto que o meio de comunicação apresenta falhas profundas em sua fundação perpetuando o distanciamento social durante o cuidado. Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste relato de experiência é compartilhar com a comunidade acadêmica a importância da língua de sinais para uma comunicação eficaz e humanizada nos serviços de saúde. Para isso, o evento “Saúde em Libras”, realizado online e transmitido através da plataforma Youtube, contou com a presença de cerca de 400 pessoas. Por meio dos questionários pré e pós-evento, constatou-se o desconhecimento popular e a desvalorização acadêmica, principalmente na área da saúde, em relação ao conhecimento psicossocial da surdez. Conclui-se que a exposição desse problema contribui para a mudança de perspectiva sobre o acesso à saúde pela comunidade surda para possibilitar melhor intervenção para minimizar o problema.
Geografia e trabalho; teoria e método
Authors: Menezes Sócrates Oliveira 
Published: January 2021

O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar a relação entre a ciência geográfica e a categoria trabalho, objetivando as dimensões teórica e metodológica que envolve o debate. A respeito da teoria, a discussão seguiu no sentido de entender os significados do valor-trabalho e da relação sociedade natureza, bem como as possibilidades de sua inserção na análise geográfica. A respeito do método, a discussão se orientou no debate sobre a dialética e sua constituição a partir de Hegel e Marx, demonstrando como que ela é o resultado interpretativo das contradições reais estabelecidas no interior da relação capital-trabalho, própria da sociedade moderna. Por fim, o texto conclui com um chamado à repensar a importância da centralidade do trabalho para a Geografia.
Potentials of Processed Palm Kernel Shell Ash (Local Stabilizer) and Model Prediction of CBR and UCS Values of Ntak Clayey Soils in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria
Authors: Assam S. A. , Agunwamba J. C. 
Published: January 2021

It is very essential to improve on the study of stabilization, as we investigate the potential of Processed Palm Kernel Shell Ash (PPKSA) as a Local stabilizer in stabilizing clay soil. The ever-increasing cost of construction materials in Nigeria and other developing countries has created the need for improved research into locally and readily available materials and also on how to convert these local materials such as Palm Kernel Shell Ash for use in construction and soil improvement. To achieve this; soil samples were collected from Ntak – Uyo, Akwa Ibom State classified as an A-2-5 soil on AASHTO and CL on UNIFIED SYSTEM of classification, were sieved and passed through sieve No. 36. It was then stabilized with (2-7%) Processed Palm Kernel Shell Ash (PPKSA) by weight of the dry soil. The investigation includes evaluation of the engineering and geotechnical properties of the soil.
The results obtained shows that the increase in PPKSA content at 4.5% increase the Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) by 16.74%, Maximum Dry Density (MDD) by 1.89 gm/cm3, Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) by 433.12 kN/m2, California Bearing Ratio (CBR) by 55% for unsoak and 36% for soak while there was a significant reduction in the value of Liquid Limit (LL) by 30.92% and Plasticity Index (PI) by 10%. The predictive models were developed, and these models showed a good correlation with experimental results in the control tests as they possess a reasonable significant difference and a strong relationship between the measured and predicted values.
The study concluded that PPKSA can be used to improve the properties of soil for construction purposes and 4.5% PPKSA content was observed to yield maximum improvement for OMC, MDD, CBR and UCS values.

Biodigestion of cattle abdominal waste from a slaughterhouse in Owerri West Local Government Area Imo state was studied. It was stabilized in a mobile biodigester for the production of quality fertilizer through the activities of microorganisms. Clean plastic bags were used to collect influent and effluent samples in replicate, stored and transported in iced coolers to the laboratory for analyses. Standard laboratory methods were used for sample analyses which focused on Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, pH, Organic matter, Moisture content, Organic carbon, and Carbon/Nitrogen ratio from pre-digested and digested samples as parameters of interest. Periodic sampling from biodigester was carried out at interval of 0 week (pre-digested samples- PDS), 2 weeks (digested samples1- DS1) and 5 weeks (digested samples 2 -DS2) for parameters investigated. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (IBM- SPSS(C)) version 19.0, statistical package for windows and MS Excel was used in the analysis of data. The test of homogeneity of variance in means of the variables was carried out using the one-way ANOVA. Further structure detection was made with means plot. Results obtained on pre-digested influent show that Nitrogen varied between 2.03-2.06% (2.01±0.05), Potassium varied between 1.25-1.32mg/kg (1.28± 0.02), and Phosphorus varied between 1.45-1.54mg/kg (1.50±0.02). Carbon/Nitrogen ratio was constant at 20, Moisture content varied between 73.50-80.50% (78.00±1.56), Organic matter varied between 67.42-70.86% (69.05±0.70), Total organic carbon varied between 39.20-41.20% (40.15 ±0.46), and pH varied between 6.30–6.50 (6.41±0.04) respectively. In the digested effluent, Nitrogen varied between 1.40-1.66% (1.53±0.04), Phosphorus varied between 1.20–1.26mg/kg (1.23±0.01), Potassium varied between 1.10-1.17 mg/kg (1.13±0.01), pH varied between 7.20–7.45 (7.32±0.04), Total organic carbon varied between 25.20-29.88% (27.60±0.66), Carbon/Nitrogen ratio was constant at 18, Organic matter 43.34-51.39% (47.48±1.14), and Moisture content varied between 86.10-95.36% (90.88±1.23) respectively. General results show that there was significant inequality among the variables examined [F(12.50) > Fcrit (4.03)] at P=0.05. Total organic carbon, Organic matter and Moisture content were most responsible for the observed heterogeneity.
Wits Appraisal of a Qatari Male Population: A Comparative Study. Part II
Authors: Hashim Hayder A. , Al-Sayed Najat , AL-Qaisi Ayah 
Published: January 2021

Introduction: Cephalometric analysis aims to determine skeletal and dental relationships. The ANB angle, initially suggested by Rediel and applied by Steiner. is the most used angle in establishing the anteroposterior relationship of the mandible to the maxilla. However, limitations to the accuracy of the ANB angle for this purpose have been reported. To avoid these potential sources of inaccuracy a diagnostic tool was introduced by Jenkins and later modified by Jacobson and became known as the “Wits appraisal”. Aims: The aim of this study was to establish the Wits appraisal value in a sample of Qatari males, a group which had not previously been studied in this context, and to compare the findings with those from racially and ethnically differing groups as reported in the literature.
Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 28 lateral cephalometric radiographs of Qatari males with an age range of 15 to 32 years, presenting with a well-balanced facial appearance and an acceptable profile.
Results: The mean value of the Wits appraisal for Qatari males in the present study was 0.50 ± 2.96. This differed at a statistically significant level from the mean value in the Jacobson study with no gender significant difference noted. On the other hand, significant differences were found when compared with previous reports on different races.
Conclusion: The Wits appraisal value for the Qatari male population studied was 0.5±2.96, a result which is significantly higher than that reported in Jacobson’s study. This study revealed that the Wits appraisal is not ethnicity or gender-specific, and therefore cannot be used to differentiate between different ethnic groups. However, it can find application as an alternative to the ANB angle in the treatment of borderline cases. The application of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) will enhance the diagnosis and treatment of cases by yielding three-dimensional views.
