Designing Combinations of Physical and Digital Manipulatives to Develop Students’ Visualisation
Authors: Vágová Renáta 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
This paper focuses on two main objectives. The first, to describe and characterise instrumental approach involving artefact and instrument differentiation, instrumental genesis and orchestration along with the instrument-mediated activity model. The second, to present and discuss one of five cube cross-section lessons designed and carried out in our mixed methods research project. Altogether, a paper workbook, dynamic applets and 3D prints form a five-set toolkit, each corresponding to one of the five designed lessons. The main research idea was to explore how digital and physical manipulatives could be integrated into solid geometry lessons to support the development of students’ visualisation. In this paper, Lesson 2 will be described in detail, which, like the others, has been particularly influenced by the instrumental approach. Its individual attributes will be depicted according to the personally adapted activity model.
Soziale Ungleichheit und quartiersbezogene politische Partizipation
Authors: Kersting Norbert , Jähn Steffen 
Published: March 2021

Zusammenfassung
Wahlen, Referenden, aber auch neue deliberative Beteiligungsinstrumente scheinen nur in begrenzter Maße beteiligungsferne, marginalisierte Bevölkerungsgruppen miteinzubeziehen. Die sozioökonomische Spaltung der Gesellschaft bewirkt eine partizipative Spaltung. Das Forschungsprojekt verändert die Perspektive und untersucht individuelle Erfolgsgeschichten. Wann gelingt es marginalisierte Gruppen (prekäre Beschäftigung, Altersarmut, Migration, alleinerziehende Frauen) zu integrieren? Der Fokus der Analyse lag auf informellen Nachbarschaftsorganisationen, die besondere Angebote im Stadtteil machen. Niedrigschwellige Zugänge, stigmatisierungs- und diskriminierungsfreie Kontexte waren aufseiten der Beteiligungsorganisation relevant und förderlich. Auf der Seite der marginalisierten Individuen zeigten sich neben einer weniger prekären Ressourcenausstattung (Zeit und einer gruppenspezifischen Gemeinwohlorientierung auch Faktoren wie besondere Sozialisationserfahrungen förderlich und motivierend.
Die Corona-Krise trifft die USA: Gespaltene Gesellschaft, angeschlagene Wirtschaft und Politik ohne Kompass
Authors: Dethlefsen Knut 
Published: March 2021

Zusammenfassung
Die USA sind von der globalen Covid-19-Pandemie von allen hoch entwickelten Industriestaaten am härtesten getroffen worden. Dabei ist in der Pandemie offensichtlich geworden, dass der Exzeptionalismus der USA vor allem darin besteht, mit der Krise vollkommen überfordert zu sein. Das betraf sowohl die politische Führung auf nationaler Ebene als auch die Gesellschaft.
Donald Trump und sein Rechtspopulismus amerikanischer Prägung haben im Angesicht der Pandemie komplett versagt. Unklare Zuständigkeiten, fehlende Koordinierung der Staaten und lokalen Behörden, Entscheidungsunfähigkeit, Verkennen der Realität, Nepotismus und sowohl wechselnde wie auch sich widersprechende Politikansätze führten dazu, dass die Pandemie in den USA außer Kontrolle geriet.
Das Virus traf auf eine polarisierte Gesellschaft und auf eine bestehende Skepsis vieler US-Amerikaner*innen gegenüber Wissenschaft und Expert*innen. Beide Voraussetzungen formten die amerikanische Antwort auf die Pandemie, die wie in keiner anderen Gesellschaft zum Politikum wurde. Donald Trump schürte die politische Polarisierung im Umgang mit der Krise und profitierte von ihr, aber es reichte nicht, um die Wiederwahl zu gewinnen.
Insgesamt hat die Corona-Pandemie wie ein Katalysator auf die US-Politik, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft gewirkt und bestehende Tendenzen beschleunigt sowie Strukturen verstärkt. Die unzureichende Absicherung der Lebensrisiken, die Unzulänglichkeiten des Gesundheitssystems, der schwache Sozialstaat und die Spaltung der US-Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft anhand der Hautfarbe führten dazu, dass die Pandemie vor allem für nicht-weiße Amerikaner*innen und Frauen verheerende gesundheitliche und wirtschaftliche Folgen hatte. Selbst die teilweise beobachtbare Erholung der Wirtschaft ist ungleich verteilt. Auch deshalb hat die Corona-Pandemie die sozialen Proteste wie Black Lives Matter in den gesellschaftlichen und politischen Fokus gerückt.
Joe Biden und Kamala Harris werden ihre Ämter im Angesicht ungelöster Krisen und riesiger Herausforderungen antreten. Gleichzeitig hat die Biden-Harris-Administration die seltene Chance, entscheidende Weichen zu stellen und die strukturellen Veränderungen des Landes mitzugestalten, die die Corona-Krise aufgezeigt und beschleunigt hat. Dazu gehören an erster Stelle die Wiederherstellung des Vertrauens in staatliches Handeln und die Forderung an eine bessere Absicherung der Lebensrisiken für alle Teile der Gesellschaft. An beiden werden Joe Biden und Kamala Harris gemessen werden.
Trump Messiah
Authors: Leggewie Claus 
Published: March 2021

ZusammenfassungDonald Trumps Chancen, 2020 im Amt bestätigt zu werden, verdankten sich seiner männlich-weißen und religiösen Unterstützerbasis. Kommentatoren haben schon 2016 gefragt, warum ausgerechnet besonders Glaubenseifrige sich auf die Seite eines Mannes schlugen, der dann auch als Amtsinhaber gegen alles verstieß, was ihnen heilig sein müsste – ein notorischer Blasphemiker, Ehebrecher, Lügner und Meister desdirty talk, vor dem man seinen Kindern besser die Ohren verschließt? Die Antwort lautet kurz und bündig: Weil sie sich mehrheitlich eher als Weiße denn als Fromme fühlen und der Anteil weißer Evangelikaler an der Gesamtbevölkerung schrumpft. Weil sie um ihre Vorherrschaft in Amerika fürchten, umjubeln sie einen Politiker, der vor allem versprochen und einiges dazu getan hat, liberale Errungenschaften wie die Abtreibungsregelung der 1970er Jahre zu Fall zu bringen und die seinerzeit ausgelösten Kulturkämpfe zu ihren Gunsten zu wenden.
Rethinking agency in language and society
Authors: Wee Lionel 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
The notion of agency is typically understood as stemming from the goals and desires of human actors. This is an assumption that has been taken on board in the study of language in society as well. In this article, I point out the problems with this assumption as well as another: the tendency to downplay if not dismiss the roles of non-human entities. I argue that these points about agency carry serious implications for the study of language in society. It is undeniable that various technological advancements ranging from relatively simple computer programs to highly developed artificial intelligence (AI) are increasingly involved in our use of language for communication. These are cases where the human element is increasingly distant from the use of language for communicative purposes. They pose conceptual challenges for the study of language in society and require a willingness to rethink the nature of agency.
Decolonising sociolinguistics research: methodological turn-around next?
Authors: Ndhlovu Finex 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
This short article argues that notwithstanding theoretical advances that have sought to unsettle the hegemony of mainstream theoretical frameworks, language in society researchers and other social science scholarly communities from the Southern orbit of the globe, continue to be wedded to conventional Euro-modernist methodologies. I suggest that the need to delink from imperial logics of doing research is a must and not an option. We need a language to explore spaces and modes of being that do not exist in the spaces of current Euro-modernist frameworks but that do exist in the majority of other communities around the world. In advancing this line of argument, I join ongoing conversations among indigenous and decolonial scholars speaking from the margins of the mainstream on the need for epistemic reconstitution of the discourse and praxis of research.
For an international journal in transnational times
Authors: Park Joseph Sung-Yul 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Academic journals are a site of tension between the perspective of the transnational and international – between an emphasis on the agency and creativity of linguistic practice that transcends boundaries of nations and languages and a focus on the enduring relations of colonial capitalism that impose bounded and hierarchized order upon our social and linguistic life. Being an international journal in transnational times comes with the challenge of having to facilitate transnational flows of knowledge without reifying the oppressive structure of the political economy of knowledge production. The International Journal of the Sociology of Language’s response to this challenge may lie in its commitment to solidarity and collaboration, where it serves as a ground for resisting the pressures of academic capitalism and for collectively seeking an agenda for research which dismantle hierarchies and boundaries that sustain and rationalize inequalities.
Reviewing and the politics of voice: peoples in the Arab world “name” their struggles “revolutions” and not the “Arab Spring”
Authors: Abdelhay Ashraf , Severo Cristine , Makoni Sinfree 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Reviewing is an act of power and not a mere act of applying shared academic standards of rigor. As such, it is inevitably implicated in the cultural politics of “naming”. In this paper we animate this taken-for-granted statement in the context of naming the sociopolitical struggles against dictatorial regimes in the Arab world. Since the end of 2010, the Arab world has witnessed a relatively organized series of protests and the peoples have named them “revolutions”. Western cultural political discourse has renamed these (trans)locally constituted struggles the “Arab Spring”. If we take sociolinguistics seriously as the “study of language in use”, we should consider the peoples in the Arab world as “subjects” of their own definitions, rather than as “objects” of Western constructions. We contend that reviewers, as gatekeepers, are implicated in the politics of voice when they uncritically accept the use of Western inventions as the “only” appropriate way of naming the world, and in so doing they effectively subvert the revolutionary interests in the Arab world.
Language and globalization revisited: Life from the periphery in COVID-19
Authors: Dong Jie 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
This short paper discusses language and globalization in the context of COVID-19. The pandemic has important impacts on people across the globe, and in particular the absence of face-to-face interaction results in new forms of communication and may lead to new ways of language change. This paper revisits sociolinguistics and globalization, and discusses challenges brought about by COVID-19 and its containment measures. The pandemic generates particularly discourses, especially from those who are affected the most. This paper includes a vignette of such discourses to show that mobility and inequality remain key issues in the current stage of globalization.
Raciolinguistic genealogy as method in the sociology of language
Authors: Flores Nelson 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
This commentary proposes raciolinguistic genealogy as a methodological approach to the sociology of language. It briefly defines three components of this approach: 1) a genealogical stance; 2) a materialist framing of racism; and 3) a raciolinguistic perspective. It offers the case of bilingual education in the United States as an illustration of the affordances of raciolinguistic genealogy in moving the field forward.
Epistemicide, deficit language ideology, and (de)coloniality in language education policy
Authors: Phyak Prem 
Published: March 2021

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to analyze how research approaches and methods in language education policy could serve to erase local multilingualism and its associated epistemologies while reproducing inequalities of languages. This paper builds on “epistemicide” (Santos, Boaventura de Sousa. 2014.Epistemologies of the South: Justice against epistemicide. New York: Routledge) to critique how the knowledge constructed on the basis of the evidence collected by using research questions in binary/conflictual terms misrepresents the real experiences and voices of multilingual participants, particularly those from language-minoritized communities. This paper argues that advancing research and building educational practices upon the lived experiences of the people, particularly Indigenous and ethnic minorities, could help us resist the destruction of languages, epistemologies, and linguistic/epistemic self-determination of communities. I use the case of Nepal not only because I am familiar with its historical, sociopolitical, and cultural contexts (so I can provide an insider’s reflective perspective), but also because Nepal’s case offers new insights into understanding language ideological issues in the discourses of language education policies from the vantage point of “peripheral multilingualism” (Pietikäinen, Sari & Helen Kelly-Holmes. 2013.Multilingualism and the periphery. Oxford: Oxford University Press).
Academic knowledge production and prefigurative politics
Authors: Lorente Beatriz P. 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Inequality is the pervasive structural characteristic of academic knowledge production. To dismantle this inequality, the challenge raised by prefigurative politics which is based on an ethos of congruence between means and ends must be taken up by the International Journal of the Sociology of Language. The IJSL’s peer review process, its academic conventions and its access model can potentially be spaces for concrete practices that prefigure parity in academic knowledge production.
Effects of date seeds administration on anxiety and depressive symptoms in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats: biochemical and behavioral evidences
Authors: Bikri Samir , Aboussaleh Youssef , Berrani Assia , Louragli Ismail , Hafid Affaf , Chakib Soukaina , Ahami Ahmed 
Published: March 2021

Abstract

Objectives
Several epidemiological data indicate that chronic hyperglycemia is associated with behavioral changes such as anxiety and depressive symptoms. Date seeds, one of the most potent products with potential antioxidant activities and possess many benefits against hyperglycemia and its complication. The aim of the current study was to explore the potential effect of date seeds extract on biochemical and behavioral changes (anxiety and depression) in streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats.

Methods
Rats were divided into four groups as follows: normal control, diabetic control, diabetic treated with the lyophilized aqueous extract of the date seed (2,000 mg/kg) (LAE-DS) and diabetics treated with insulin (4 UI/day). Experimental diabetes was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of STZ (60 mg/kg). After 24 days treatment period, anxiety and depressive behaviors were evaluated using four behavioral tests. After sacrifice, blood samples were collected to evaluate lipid parameters. In addition, rat organs (kidney, liver and brain) were dissected out in order to estimate lipid peroxidation levels as oxidative stress marker.

Results
Oral administration of the lyophilized aqueous extract of date seeds and insulin injection for 30 days significantly decreased blood glucose levels in STZ-diabetic rats and protected them against undesirable changes in lipid parameters, including cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, VLDL cholesterol and atherosclerosis index. Compared to untreated diabetic rat, a significant decrease in lipid peroxidation levels in kidney, liver and brain (Hippocampus and prefrontal cortex) were observed after treatment with insulin or LAE-DS in diabetic rats. Furthermore, insulin and LAE-DS administration prevented anxiety-related behaviors in STZ-diabetic rats.

Conclusions
Therefore, it would be possible to combine this extract with insulin and use it as an antioxidant supplement for type 1 diabetic patients.
Subtitling Calligraphy
Authors: Nornes Markus 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
This essay examines a regional, not global, dimension of Chinese cinema: the Chinese character in its brushed form. Calligraphy and cinema have an intimate relationship in East Asia. Indeed, the ubiquity of the brushed word in cinema is one element that actually ties works in Korean, Japanese and Sinophone Asia together as a regional cinema. At the same time, I will explore the very specific difference of Chinese filmmakers’ use of written language. On first glance, cinema and calligraphy would appear as radically different art forms. On second glance, they present themselves as sister arts. Both are art forms built from records of the human body moving in (an absent) time and space. The essay ends with a consideration of subtitling, upon which Chinese cinema’s global dimension is predicated. How does investigating this very problem lead us to rethinking the nature of the cinematic subtitle, which is very much alive―a truly movable type?
Cultural Outreach: Cinema and Soft Power
Authors: Rawnsley Gary D. 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
This paper introduces soft power as a political construct and thus questions its relevance to cinema. Rather than seeing movies as representatives of soft power in and of themselves, cinema is an instrument whereby soft power is projected – a tool rather than a resource. The paper argues that cinema is an example of “soft power by accident”, meaning that it is best understood as a natural by-product of a cultural creative process for non-political purposes. However, when we analyse Chinese cinema, the boundaries between political and non-political break down, revealing some of the problems and limitations in both Chinese soft power and cultural outreach.
The Historical Roots and Cultural Core of the Chinese Film School
Authors: Wang Haizhou 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Chinese cinema has its own unique features, created through nationally distinct methods. Once revealed, these methods make possible the construction of a unique “Chinese film school.” This article explores the historical development of Chinese film arts in order to uncover general trends along its winding path. While being open to the world, the Chinese film school ultimately returns to traditions in Chinese art as a method to construct a unique theory of Chinese film. This methodology has enabled Chinese films to reflect wider developments in world cinema, while also maintaining distinctive Chinese cultural characteristics.

New liquid oral formulations of hydroxychloroquine: a physicochemical stability study
Authors: Lebreton Vincent , Bourcier Blandine , Cosson Karine , Lagarce Frédéric , Spiesser-Robelet Laurence , Vrignaud Sandy 
Published: March 2021

Abstract

Objectives
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) presents many drug properties that increase its therapeutic use. There are, indeed, different research pathways in numerous autoimmune, inflammatory, and infectious diseases, as well as in cancerology. HCQ is only marketed as HCQ sulfate in film-coated or coated tablets for oral use. No pediatric liquid form is currently available on the market. The purpose of the present study is to develop oral liquid formulations for HCQ at 50 mg/mL with two different oral vehicle suspensions, namely ORA-Plus®/ORA-Sweet® (ORA) and Syrspend® SF PH 4 (SYR).

Methods
The suspension stability was assessed in different storage conditions (4 and 25 °C). A high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) stability-indicating method with UV detection was developed to determine HCQ concentrations in the different formulations, and detect potential degradation products. Physical parameters, e.g. pH and osmolality were also monitored during the period of the stability study.

Results
HCQ concentration, osmolality, and pH remained stable for 90 days at 4 and 30 °C for HCQ in 50% ORA-Plus®/50% ORA-Sweet®. For HCQ suspension in SYR, the suspension remained stable 90 days at 4 °C and 60 days at 30 °C.

Conclusions
For all preparations, no significant physical or chemical modification was noticed during the period of the study.
Coexisting of interprofessional education and organizational culture
Authors: Başer Aysel , Şahin Hatice 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Increasing knowledge, technological advances, growing elderly and disabled population, and the need to provide safe and quality patient care over the world have made the healthcare systems more complex. In the last 30 years, the need for interprofessional education has increased. The training and participation of more than two disciplines is defined as interprofessional education. The aim of interprofessional education is to learn how students should work in an interprofessional team and to apply the knowledge, skills and attitudes that they have learned to future health service delivery. Most of the competencies for interprofessional education are related to teamwork. Communication, leadership and collaboration skills need to be achieved for teamwork. There are many barriers on the basis of the training program and the organization. In addition to the structural change, cultural changes are needed to initiate a reform movement in the interprofessional education in the healthcare system. Critically important interprofessional education should be defended in the framework of how to act and approach all employees of the institution in the same belief, common values and the same way of working together for optimum success.
