THE MOBILITY BETWEEN LANGUAGES AND THE FLUXES OF GLOBALIZATION: REVIEWING PARADIGMS, TRANSCENDING PARADOXES
Authors: Storto André Coutinho , Biondo Fabiana Poças 
Published: June 2016

This article aims to raise some general questions related to mobility and the traffic between languages in times of globalization. While defining “globalization” as a set of discourses, we outline some of its internal contradictions and paradoxes as well as the equally contradictory role of the English language as a homogenizing and fragmentary force in this context. Next, taking the perspective of language as socio discursive practice, we situate the multilingual speaker and the interweaving between languages and meanings in a world dominated by intense patterns of diversity and fluxes of people and discourses. Finally, we turn to the context of the bi/multilingual classroom, trying to point out alternatives to monolingual assumptions underlying educational and pedagogical discourses and practices related to bi/multilingual education that prevent us from understanding multilingual speakers in all their complexity.

PAISAGEM LINGUÍSTICA EM UM CONTEXTO SUÁBIO-BRASILEIRO: MOBILIDADE E REPRESENTAÇÃO DE UMA COMUNIDADE “GERMÂNICA”
Authors: Vecchia Adriana Dalla , Jung Neiva Maria 
Published: June 2016

Este artigo visa descrever a paisagem linguística de um contexto plurilíngue Schwowisch/Hochdeutsch/Português no interior do Paraná, procurando compreender os significados sociais desses usos da linguagem na comunidade. Discutimos conceitos como superdiversidade (VERTOVEC, 2007; BLOMMAERT; RAMPTON, 2011; MOITA-LOPES, 2013) e paisagem linguística (BLOMMAERT, 2013; SHOHAMY, 2012) para analisar dados da comunidade, como outdoors, placas indicativas e monumentais. Esses dados mostram materializações linguísticas do Hochdeutsch ao lado do português em textos presentes na paisagem linguística local, contribuindo para a construção de uma identidade de suábios brasileiros com origem germânica. Legitimar as versões padronizadas dessas línguas aponta para objetivos econômicos e de mobilidade desse grupo que busca manter laços econômicos e de irmandade com a Alemanha.

SAUSSURE’S TREASURE, HUMILIATION AND OTHER (NEO)LIBERAL TROPES
Authors: Silva Daniel Do Nascimento e 
Published: June 2016

While driving its stake into the ground of political economy of language, this paper does two spatiotemporal jumps in order to shed some light on how particular liberal – hence politico-economic – ideologies travel. It first goes back a hundred years ago, to Geneva, and pursues a novel reading of Saussure by delineating his liberal picture of language. It then moves to 2013, in Lima, and looks at some possible consequences of Saussure’s inaugural abandonment of social relationships. In addressing a contemporary scene of humiliation – where young indigenous Peruvian Yaqui Quispe is humiliated by Universidad del Pacifico in its reappraisal of her entrance exam – the paper claims that Saussure’s liberal reified view of social relationships is a fiction that most speakers of the world languages cannot afford.

OTHERING PROCESSES AMONG BRAZILIAN INTERACTANTS ON THE INTERNET
Authors: Signorini Inês 
Published: June 2016

The article focuses on the process of othering as it is embodied in linguistic interactions among Brazilians on the Internet during the last decade, when socioeconomic mobility expanded the access and the adherence to practices involving digital technological resources by different social Brazilian groups. By othering, it means any linguistic-discursive action by which an individual or group is classified as “not one of us” (difference and strangeness). Considering that the construction of the Other is made up of social action; has an ideological component; and that an exercise of power is always present, the aim herewith is to show that othering processes in focused interactions instantiate overlaps, interceptions and tangencies between different space-temporal scales which constitute the contemporary Brazilian “reality”. Observational data from a research project carried out since 2005 about internet-mediated interactions among Brazilians will be used to illustrate the contentions put forth in this paper.

LANGUAGE AND THE COMMUNICABILITY OF RECEIVED WISDOMS: AN INTERVIEW WITH CHARLES BRIGGS
Authors: Silva Daniel Do Nascimento e 
Published: June 2016

Charles Briggs was interviewed in his visit to Brazil, where he taught in the School of Advanced Studies on Language and Society: Mobility, Multilingualism, and Globalization. The interview revolves around the ways he approaches transdisciplinary problems while also attempting to trace a genealogy of concepts like entextualization and communicability. Crafted by him in decades of intellectual and political engagement with indigenous communities and the academia, these concepts are widely spread in anthropology, language studies and public health.

Who are the successful reproductive health clinician-researchers?
Authors: Ekeroma Alec Joseph , Kenealy Tim , Latu Rufina , Hill Andrew 
Published: June 2016

<p>Huge investments into research capacity building in low to middle-income countries<sup>1</sup> have resulted in a significant increase in the critical mass of research scientists.<sup>2</sup> However, the increase in researchers and research output has been more easily achieved in larger countries with a multitude of research institutions. Efforts have been less successful in small countries, such as those in the Pacific region,<sup>3 4</sup> despite the many research collaborations from within and from outside the region. Pacific Island countries with small economies, especially those with populations less than 50,000, do not have the capacity to produce a critical mass of researchers. Therefore training individual clinicians to perform clinical or health services research is a viable alternative.<sup>5</sup> <sup>6</sup></p><p>To address the lack of regional and local research evidence, the Pacific Society for Reproductive Health (PSRH) passed a resolution in 2007 to promote clinical research and audit amongst its members. Research workshops were conducted in conjunction with biennial conferences to stimulate research activity. In 2013, the BRRACAP (Building Reproductive Research and Audit Capacity and Activity in the Pacific Islands) Study was conducted to increase research activity in the 18 months after a 7-day research workshop and subsequent research mentoring.<sup>6</sup> This short report summarises one aspect of the BRRACAP Study’s findings - the characteristics of the most successful clinician-researchers. Implications of these findings are discussed. </p>

“There is no home for me in this world”: States of statelessness and the need to deterritorialize human rights
Authors: Cambre Maria-Carolina 
Published: June 2016

There are millions of people in the world today who ‘reside’ in no place. Technically, though, no place simply means a non-existent place, which by extension annuls the existence of these people. May of these are from areas where they not recognized as citizens, and from where they have been uprooted because of war and related upheavals. In these instances, these have no other choice but to seek other places to live. It is indeed, when the doors are shut and they are not accepted in the new places that they become denationalized and trapped in ‘no-man’s land.’ Such acts of exclusion are dehumanizing, painful and should not be accepted in our world. In this paper, I argue that this widespread problem exists due to lack of basic citizenship and human rights possibilities. The problem is also attached to specific understandings of sovereignty and human rights where, in the case of a conflict, for example, whatever the nation-state almost always takes precedence over the fundamental rights of the individual and/or groups. Indeed, this problematic reality is discursively (as well as pragmatically) located within the human rights, and related governance debates, which always display some form of conceptual and practical disconnect between the nation-state’s right to refuse entry, and an individual’s right for asylum.
Universities in Opposition to Israel’s Military Occupation and the De-development of the West Bank and Gaza
Authors: Hammond Keith 
Published: June 2016

This paper argues that the violation of justice in Palestine began in 1948 and was deepened in 1967 with the further occupation and de-development of Palestine which continues to this day. For forty two years, international law has been defied by Israel with one excuse after another that few people accept. Israel has persistently built more and more settlements and separations that make the basic human right to education and health near impossible for the Palestinians. Whilst international aid has been necessary, it has been politically ineffective in halting the capture and annexing of more and more Palestinian land. More Palestinians are removed from Jerusalem every day as violence upon violence is piled on the people of Palestine. This paper argues that this is unacceptable for the international family of higher education. It argues that universities around the world should take a political lead in response to the call from Palestinian and other peace workers to build the Boycott, Disinvestment and Sanctions movement in global civil society. This paper moves the position that history has built up to a point where justice for Palestine is now an undeniable global issue for people of conscience everywhere. The situation is such that universities cannot step back and leave it to politicians. Academics and students must speak out and take a lead in ending the day to day abuse of basic Palestinian rights.
An Aboriginal Perspective on Canada’s Human Rights “Culture”
Authors: McFadyen Krista 
Published: June 2016

It was a profound achievement for Indigenous peoples to be recognized as peoples with associated rights under international law. As active contributors in international human rights arenas, Indigenous people have weighed into debates on how to substantiate collective rights while complementing individual rights. They assert a collective political identity that strives for rights to protect cultures, livelihoods, and governance systems. However, these achievements at the international level may fall short in impacting lives at the domestic level. This inquiry is based on a model of human rights socialization to consider whether Canadian attitudes and behaviours, as well as institutions and systems, promote human rights values and norms. Despite seemingly progressive human rights legislation in Canada, the perceptions and experiences of select Aboriginal people suggest significant barriers to substantiating rights through current institutions and problematizes Canada’s rights “culture.”
International Economic Sanctions, University Life, and Global Citizenship Education: The Case of Iran
Authors: Mehrabi Shadi 
Published: June 2016

U.S. economic sanctions against Iran have been the main feature of U.S. - Iran relations since Iran’s 1979 Islamic revolution (Katzman, 2013). From 2006, United Nations and European Union followed such policy against Iran, as a response to Iran’s progress in its nuclear program. While the purpose of these imposed sanctions is to stop the progress of the nuclear program, there is a concern regarding the destructive effects of the sanctions on Iranian citizens’ lives. The economy of a country is integral to citizens’ well-being and influences people’s lives in different ways. Higher education is one of the sectors that can be affected by the economic state of the country. Narrating the socio-historical background of the sanctions, this paper will argue about the role of the economic sanctions on Iranian citizens’ lives, focusing specifically on students. Since economic sanctions are arguably a means of violating basic human right, i.e., education, I will propose global citizenship education as a way to counter such a violation.
Authentic Learning in African Post-Secondary Education and the Creative Economy
Authors: Muganga Lawrence 
Published: June 2016

Authentic learning is a branch of constructivism, a pedagogical approach that places the student at the center of the learning experience. This instructional model has undergone gradual adoption in first-world countries, with underdeveloped countries still struggling to implement a systematic approach for incorporating authentic learning in the classrooms. In the meantime, the global economy has evolved from an industrial, factory-based economy to one involving the manipulation of knowledge. Consequently, the implementation of authentic learning has assumed an increased importance within education systems around the world, especially at the post-secondary level, where instructors need to prepare new graduates for a modern, service-oriented workforce. Authentic learning teaches the required soft skills that students can transfer from one situation to another: collaboration, communication, critical thinking, creativity, innovation, problem solving, and decision-making. In African countries, most teachers still use an instructivist, or teacher-centered approach to lesson planning and delivery, forcing students to learn through the memorization of isolated facts. This type of learning, which continues through all levels of education, leaves students unprepared for the twenty-first century workforce. Consequently, the following paper argues that African countries require a centralized and systematic approach for revising their education systems to promote authentic learning opportunities. The literature has enumerated the benefits to authentic learning, including enhanced motivation and learning outcomes for students as well as advantages for other stakeholders such as teachers. In addition to academic benefits, authentic learning also contains economic advantages by enhancing students’ readiness for the working world and citizenship duties as well as benefitting employers, individual sectors, and overall economies. Although Africa faces many hardships, including a paucity of resources, a wholesale revision of their education systems will ultimately prove advantageous in the long term. This modification requires the coordinated efforts of all stakeholders, starting with governments.
Global Citizenship Education from Across the Pacific: A Narrative Inquiry of Transcultural Teacher Education in Japan
Authors: Howe Edward 
Published: June 2016

Teachers and teacher educators play increasingly important roles in creating successful futures for both individuals and society in light of globalization, increasing diversity, and growing interdependency. Within the dialectic of global and local, opportunities now for transformational learning, fostering social justice and global citizenship are unprecedented. However, global citizenship education (GCE) that explores different conceptual, theoretical, and methodological considerations of decolonizing citizenship education in practice remains a challenge for teachers. Thus, this paper describes pedagogies of GCE within pre-service teacher education classes and high schools in Japan. Furthermore, transcultural stories of several teachers are shared. The research reported here is based on over two decades of experience as a teacher educator in Canada and Japan. There is a paucity of long-term research on teachers’ reflections and experiences as they attempt to integrate GCE into their teaching, captured through personal narrative and story. Furthermore, due to a Western hegemony of knowledge, Eurocentric education, neo-colonialism, and neoliberal/conservative agendas in higher education, the voices of others outside North America are rarely heard. The research presented here attempts to fill this gap. This paper investigates these issues and teachers’ personal practical and professional knowledge through narratives of transcultural journeys.

Published: June 2016

Objetivo: analisar produções científicas acerca das propriedades psicométricas da Escala de Solidão da UCLA. Método: revisão integrativa da literatura, entre 1978 e 2014, nas bases de dados LILACS, Cochrane, MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science e PsycINFO. Resultados: o alpha de Cronbach variou de α=0,71 a α = 0,92 entre as versões, com exceção da versão reduzida ULS-4 que apresentou α =0,31 a α = 0,45. Houve falta de consenso entre os pesquisadores, tendo alguns definido a escala como unidimensional, enquanto outros como tendo dois ou mais fatores. Foi encontrada relação negativa entre a Escala de Solidão da UCLA e medidas de apoio social, disposição social, autoestima, satisfação com a vida, suporte social, medida de pertencimento percebido, autoconceito, autoavaliação de atratividade física e felicidade e relação positiva com ansiedade social, timidez e depressão. Conclusão: as evidências científicas comprovam as qualidades psicométricas da Escala de Solidão da UCLA, com exceção da ULS-4.
Copper nanoparticle catalyzed regioselective cycloaddition of terminal acetylenes to sodium azide in the presence of O-tosyl fluorocarbohydrate derivatives: assembly of novel enantiopure fluoromonosaccharides with 1,2,3-triazole and 4-phenyl-oxazolidin-2-one subunits
Authors: Guesmi Ahlem , Ben Hamadi Naoufel 
Published: June 2016

A three-component reaction of O-tosyl carbohydrate derivatives with sodium azide and terminal alkynes can be catalyzed by copper nanoparticles under ambient conditions. A series of 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles were obtained regioselectively by this one-pot strategy in good to excellent yields (70-90%). The salient features of the present protocol are mild reaction conditions, a shorter reaction time, and its applicability to a wide range of substrates.
THE CONCEPT OF FATE IN AMERICAN SCIENCE FICTION LITERATURE
Authors: Gryshchenko Yana 
Published: June 2016

The present article is dedicated to the problem of the concept of fate functioning in the American picture of the world. The aim of the article is to investigate the concept sphere of fate in American science-fiction literature. The main tasks are to outline the main specific approaches to the problem, to analyse synonymic rows of the concept of fate and to form the concept sphere of fate in terms of their characteristics. At the beginning, the outline of the last investigations of the fate was done, and then the historical background of the fate interpretation was introduced. In the next part, the preliminary statistical results of the Fate lexicographical analysis were given. The author tried to prove the material selection with the help of the data from the Corpus of global web-based English and the Corpus of contemporary American English. The practical part of the article is devoted to the analysis of the concept of fate in the American science fiction literature that was done on the basis of the fantastic stories of A.E. van Vogt and E. Mayne Hull. At the result of the analysis the synonymic raw of the fate was formed. At the final part of the article, we made the general conclusion that the concept of fate had such two models of objectification as universal and individual ones.
