A Linguistic Analysis of Translation Errors on Selected Public Notices in Kenya
Authors: Maina Macharia Daniel 
Published: May 2021

This paper purposes to analyse translation errors in selected Kenyan public notices. Specifically, it examines how translation faults possess unique linguistic resources. There is an extensive existence of this genre countrywide albeit without proper academic scrutiny to further interrogate fundamental linguistic concepts therein. It involves the application of the Computer-Mediated Discourse Analysis (CMDA) which is unique to the analysis of this genre. Specifically, this research involves collecting data from the social media of the relevant public notices in Kenya. Generally, twelve signage were analysed. The sampling procedure was done purposively to include the diversity of Kenya. To qualify, the data collected had to reflect translation blunders. Then, the data was analysed for linguistic resources. The data was presented using a table showing the relationship between the components sought. Consequently, the study enriched translational linguistics, evaluated textual analysis and critiqued the linguistic concepts of performance and competence. Additionally, it provided useful insights into the cognitive mechanisms used during humour production and understanding.
(Re)examination of the Aspects of African Cultural Production through Different Epochs
Authors: Odhiambo Oduor Vincent 
Published: May 2021

This paper sought to examine how African Culture has undergone the processes of production, development and change through four different epochs, namely: pre-colonial period, colonial period, independent period and post-independent period. The study applies the post-colonial theory, which broadly deals with the study of the effects of colonialism on cultures and societies, to interrogate the (un)changing perceptions of Africans across different epochs. Post-colonial theory is often said to commence with the work of Edward Said, Stuart Hall and Homi K. Bhabha. The approach looks at literature and society from two broad angles: how the writer, artist, cultural worker, and his or her context imitates a colonial past, and how they survive and carve out a new way of creating and understanding the world. It is anxious with both how European nations conquered and controlled “Third world” cultures and how these groups have since responded to and resisted those encroachments. The study is qualitative, employing discourse data obtained from a close reading of the text. The paper contributes knowledge on how various factors such as slavery, colonialism; migration, technology and globalization have contributed to cultural production, development and change.
The Power of Language Use in the Mass Media: A Case of Opinion Court on Citizen Television, Kenya.
Authors: Jane M. Ombati  
Published: May 2021

The study sought to investigate how power relations are constructed and negotiated in the talk show. A programme aired on Citizen Television. The following objectives guided the study: to describe the structure of the talk show in the opinion court programme; examine patterns that emerge in the programme and account for the patterns observed in the opinion court. Literature was reviewed on; talk show: opinion court, conversational Analysis and Language and power. The study was guided by the Sociology of Conversation Theory by Goffman (1967) and Conversational Analysis Theory. Purposive sampling method was used to select the television as opposed to radio, Citizen Television in particular and opinion court talk show programme, this was necessary because power and language interplay can best be examined when there are two opposing sides, and thus opinion court provided this forum. Data was collected through both direct viewings of the programme and audio-video recording of the conversation. The data were then transcribed, analyzed and described qualitatively aiming at establishing the structure and the patterns of the discourses. The findings of the study revealed that opinion court talk show had some structure and followed some patterns which could be accounted for. The study, therefore, concluded that the opinion court did not count because other smaller opinions emerged. This implies that power is won, held and lost in social struggles.

Ajaran Islam diyakini oleh umat Islam sebagai ajaran yang bersumber pada wahyu Allah [divine law]. Keyakinan ini didasarkan pada kenyataan bahwa sumber ajaran Islam adalah Al-Quran dan sunnah. Kemudian dalam setting sejarah, proses terbentuknya hukum Islam sejatinya hanya berlangsung pada masa Nabi Muhammad SAW. Hal ini lebih disebabkan karena Nabi Muhammad mempunyai kewenangan dan otoritas penuh, bahkan melekat pada dirinya legitimasi teologis untuk melakukan hal itu. Sementara generasi-generasi setelah Nabi Muhammad hanya berfungsi untuk mengembangkan konstruksi dasar hukum yang telah dibangun sebelumnya. Fenomena ini terlihat dalam ijtihad para fuqaha pada setiap periode yang telah menghasilkan produk fikih melalui metodologi ushul fikih dengan modifikasi-modifikasi tertentu yang tidak lepas dari kerangka Al-Quran dan Sunnah. Tentu saja, modifikasi ini merupakan hasil tawar-menawar antara fikih dengan dinamika konstruksi sosial, budaya, dan nilai-nilai dalam masyarakat.
Islamic teachings are believed by Muslims to be based on divine law. This belief is based on the fact that the source of Islamic teachings is the Koran and the Sunnah. Then in the historical setting, the process of forming Islamic law actually only took place during the time of the Prophet Muhammad. This is more because the Prophet Muhammad had full authority and authority, even attached to him the theological legitimacy to do so. Meanwhile, the generations after the Prophet Muhammad only functioned to develop the basic legal constructs that had been built before. This phenomenon can be seen in the jurists' ijtihad in each period that has produced fiqh products through the ushul fiqh methodology with certain modifications that cannot be separated from the framework of the Al-Quran and Sunnah. Of course, this modification is the result of bargaining between fiqh and the dynamics of social construction, culture, and values ​​in society.
lliberal Democracy: the Case of Democratic Erosion
Authors: Campbell Amy 
Published: May 2021

This paper uses Israel’s 2018 Nation-State Law, which guarantees the “ethnic-religious character of Israel as exclusively Jewish,” as a lens to reveal the ongoing socio-political change in Israel and processes of democratic erosion. In addition to having immediate relevance for contemporary Israeli policy, especially concerning the status of Arab Israelis and the likely annexation of the West Bank, the law poses a profound, existential challenge for the maintenance of Israel as a democratic state. Drawing on Fareed Zakaria’s theory of “illiberal democracy,” this paper analyses the implications of this law for Israel, for the linked concepts of liberalism and democracy, and for the future of the democratic state in an increasingly illiberal world.
The law is a culmination of other basic laws and political thresholds, and accelerates settler colonialism. Gaining more international attention than previous basic laws, the political thresholds prior to the Nation-State Law and cumulative legislation building up to the debate have been ignored. Analysing these thresholds will reveal the efficacy of supporting such a law and using nationhood provisions in other Western democratic constitutions as justification. This paper is a warning: to act upon seemingly insignificant anti-democratic legislation before political actions become irreparable.

The law is a culmination of other basic laws, political thresholds, and accelerates settler colonialism. Gaining more international attention than previous basic laws, direct discriminatory implications on Arab minorities as well as powerful legal consequences, the political thresholds prior to the Nation-State Law and cumulative legislation building up to the debate have been ignored. This paper will hopefully reveal the efficacy of supporting such a law and using the nationhood provisions in other constitutions in Western democracies as justification. This paper is a warning: to act upon seemingly insignificant anti-democratic legislation before political actions become irreparable.

Inclusão escolar de alunos com deficiência intelectual e paralisia cerebral no Ensino Fundamental I
Authors: Dos Santos Denise Cristina Da Costa França , Carneiro Relma Urel Carbone 
Published: May 2021

Diante de políticas educacionais que retratam a importância e a legitimidade da inclusão de alunos com deficiências no ensino comum, fizemos um estudo para verificar qual a visão de um professor do Ensino Fundamental I que tem em sua sala um aluno com deficiência intelectual e uma aluna com paralisia cerebral. Para tanto, utilizamos uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa, para coleta de dados, utilizamos a entrevista semiestruturada. Nosso objetivo foi analisar quais concepções o professor tem de seu trabalho docente, da inclusão, do apoio da equipe gestora e do AEE, da aprendizagem dos alunos e seu contato com a família. Os resultados demonstraram que a matrícula na classe comum, muitas vezes significa uma inclusão para a socialização e que os aspectos cognitivos por vezes são deixados de lado. A inclusão é possível, mas, diz respeito à capacidade da escola de redesenhar sua cultura organizacional como um todo, de modo a atender às especificidades de cada um dos educandos, propondo e executando estratégias em favor da formação integral deles.
