Authors: Hudah Komsih , Rustan Ahmad , Irwansyah Irwansyah 
Published: October 2023

Introduction: In the developing social, political and economic dynamics, the idea of extending the village head's term of office raises questions regarding orientation, legality and its impact in the context of the Indonesian constitution as well as implications for the principles of democracy and community participation in village governance.Purposes of the Research: This study aims to examine the enigma of the idea of extending the tenure of village heads in the context of village administration in Indonesia and identify the implications of this idea for aspects of democracy, community participation, and the balance of power from a constitutional perspective.Methods of the Research: This study uses a legal analysis and policy analysis approach to examine various laws and regulations related to village governance, including the relevance and implementation of extending the tenure of village heads in Indonesia. The document analysis method will be used to collect data from official sources such as government reports, academic journals, and other trusted publications.Results of the Research: The research results indicate that the enigma of extending the tenure of Village Chiefs in the context of village governance in Indonesia and its relationship with the principles of democracy and community participation as per the Constitution. While the performance of the Village Chief is a consideration, it is important to maintain community participation in the election of Village Chiefs. This extension of tenure has a significant impact on the principle of power rotation, which is essential in safeguarding democracy. Village governance is an integral part of Indonesia's political system, based on democracy and community participation. Although the Village Chief plays a strategic role, the idea of extending their tenure raises important questions related to constitutional principles.
Injury mechanism of patellar dislocation in professional athletes: a video analysis study
Authors: Yüce Ali , Yerli Mustafa , Misir Abdulhamit 
Published: October 2023

Objective: Patellar dislocation (PD) is a devastating injury in professional athletes. An important aspect of injury prevention requires not only identifying the risk factors but also determining the responsible injury mechanism. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the injury mechanisms by examining the videos of PD injuries that occurred in professional athletes.
Material and Methods: Injury videos of identified athletes and/or sports competitions where the injury occurred were detected on social media platforms (YouTube®, Twitter®, Facebook®). On January 1, 2021, 32 patella dislocation videos were found. A total of 28 PD that occurred in professional athletes between 1999 and 2020 were identified. Of these, 18 PD injuries with adequate video data were analyzed for injury mechanism, body posture, and player and sports characteristics. Three independent reviewers evaluated the videos.
Results: There were 17 (94.4%) male and 1 (5.6%) female athletes. The mean age was 26.2±3.1 years. Distribution of athletic branches were such: four basketball (22.2%), two football (11.1%), nine rugby (50.0%), two soccer (11.1%), and one boxing (5.6%). In 13 cases (72.2%), the injury occurred by contact mechanism. Eight of these injuries (61.5%) occurred as a result of direct contact. The most important findings of this study were that patellar dislocation occurred when the trunk, hip, knee and ankle were slightly flexed. Dislocation occurred with the contraction of the quadriceps while the foot and tibia were performing external rotation.
Conclusion: In professional athletes, PD most frequently occurs during a collision. The most common posture of the athlete who lost his balance is the trunk in flexion, knee and hip in flexion, ankle in plantar flexion.
Performance Metrics of an Intrusion Detection System Through Window-Based Deep Learning Models
Authors: Isiaka Fatima 
Published: October 2023

Intrusion and prevention technologies perform reliably in harsh conditions by fortifying many of the world's highest security sites with few defects in high performance. This paper aims to contribute by designing an intrusion/preventive system using a window-based convolutional neural network (CNN), an integrated recurrent neural network (RNN), and autoencoders (AutoE) to detect and test the performance of the intrusion detection system. The data packets were converted to images where the pixels were used as input. The CNN architecture shows a three-layer model with high predictive performance. The result shows high performance on CNN as compared to both RNN and AutoE; CNN seems to resist overfitting more than the rest of the models. The future perspective would be to test the model on other standard methods such as support vector machine (SVM) and dynamic control systems.

English Public Theology
Authors: O’Donovan Joan Lockwood 
Published: October 2023

This study commends the public theology of the English Reformation as a fruitful though neglected resource for a critical analysis of the contradictions of freedom that riddle late-modern liberal democracies and a constructive response to them. Drawn from the key legal, liturgical, homiletic and confessional elements of the English Reformation, this foundational Anglican tradition provides a theological vantage point for understanding current moral and political impasses in the western legacy of natural rights.
The extensive development of natural rights in pre-modern scholastic theory and practice and its continuity with theoretical development from the seventeenth century onward make the Reformers’ criticisms of scholastic moral, political, and ecclesial thought germane to identifying the problematic features of the prevailing modern tradition and to furnishing a theological alternative to them. These problematic features are: an individualistic and voluntarist conception of moral agency, a regulative and juridical orientation to human relationships, and an anthropocentric concentration on human rather than on divine right, judgement, and freedom. The humanity they portray, detached from its created ordering to Christological perfection and bound within a self-enclosed ethical and political self-understanding, is effectively countered by the English reformers’ presentation of the salvation of creation in Christ, faith working through love, the spiritual fellowship of the church, and the provisional character of political jurisdiction.
Theological Metaphysics
Authors: Robles Ray C. 
Published: October 2023

Insofar as Christian theology aims to make truthful claims about the nature of reality, it is necessarily involved in the enterprise of metaphysics. Pentecostals, precisely as Christians, are thus obliged to participate. Through this study it becomes evident that pentecostals aim to participate in the metaphysical discipline in the same way they theologize — that is, informed by the norms, practices, and speech acts that constitute their spirituality.
This book aims to construct a Christian metaphysics that is at once attuned to pentecostal spirituality/theology and informed by the classical tradition of Christian metaphysics.
Ultimately, this work offers a constructive and critical engagement with pentecostal spirituality, and with pentecostal theology via the larger ecumenical, creedal, and dogmatic metaphysical tradition. Thus, this book is explicitly and intentionally limited to understand metaphysics in conversation with the historical Christian tradition, and to understand a pentecostal vision of it.
A Short History of Judaism and the Jewish People
Authors: Jacobs Steven Leonard 
Published: October 2023

In this exciting addition to Bloomsbury’s Short Histories series, Steven Leonard Jacobs critically yet concisely examines the history of Judaism and the Jewish people, drawing from maps, photographs and archives to illuminate the history of one of the world’s oldest religions.
Beginning by establishing a definition of Judaism, Jacobs explores the historiography of the Jewish people, in addition to the role of memory in charting history. Including a comprehensive breakdown of the history of Judaism, the author splits discussion into defined eras, taking readers from the beginnings of Judaism, to the split between Judah in the South and Israel in the North, the united Monarchy, and the Age of the Prophets.
Exploring the social structures and institutions of ancient Israel, Jacobs incorporates key themes such as civic life, economics, and art – before analysing the interactions of Judaism with Romanism and Hellenism. Moving through the Middle Ages and Pre-Modernity, and acknowledging the role of key figures such as Yosef Karo and Moses Mendelssohn, this book brings the narrative up to the present day, and uncovers the foundations of Judaism in modernity.
Jacobs’ authoritative yet engaging prose shines through each of the thirteen chapters, which seamlessly intertwine to produce a thorough yet concise examination of the history of Judaism and Jewish peoples.
New Perspectives on Language Mobility
Authors: Schaefer Sarah Josefine 
Published: October 2023

The diffusion of English and the increasing mediatisation of our globalised world have significant impacts on our perceptions of language and culture. Beginning with an overview of how the conceptualisation of language is currently debated in sociolinguistics and related fields, this book highlights the need for a new perspective on language mobility.
Through examining the use of English on German radio morning shows, the book explores the dynamics of language use in times of accelerated globalisation and provides insights into how the media operate within the global flows of messages and linguistic resources that characterise our mediatised societies. In doing so, it demonstrates how combining the different perspectives of a sociolinguistics of mobility and contact linguistics allows for a thorough investigation of language practices in society, and advances the theoretical and practical approaches to the study of language mobility as a result.
Ethics Within Engineering
Authors: Robison Wade L. 
Published: October 2023

Exploring key ethical concerns in the engineering industry, this 2nd editionof Ethics Within Engineeringis fully revised and updated to educate a new generation of engineers in ethical decision-making. By focusing on critical issues concerning tracking harm, contract work, and collective action, Wade L. Robison provides educational tools and solutions that match the complexity of the engineering landscape today.
Two new chapters on the responsibility of the engineer and the ethical issues that arise when teams work together to solve design problems, together with new material on tracking harms in the design process, provide a fuller comprehension of risk and harm in engineering. Robison further enhances this new edition with contemporary examples that highlight the enduring necessity of ethics to engineering. These range from the Boeing 737-MAX to General Motors’ controversial 20-gallon fuel tanks. Using real life examples that bring the theory to life, this student-led textbook encourages students to present, challenge, and work through different engineering problems and solutions with confidence and a strong evidence-based approach.
Consistent with the 1st edition’s emphasis on the original design problem which drives ethical questions in engineering, this new edition positions the nascent engineer as its focus for driving positive change in practice, design, and delivery.
Anglo-Hispania beyond the Black Legend
Authors: Lawrence Mark 
Published: October 2023

This book traces and analyses the relationship between Britain and Spain in its various forms since 1489. So often viewed as antagonistic rivals in history, the two countries are here compared and contrasted in order to shed light on their international connection and how this has evolved over time. Mark Lawrence reflects on the similarities of their composite monarchies, their roles as successive projectors of European global power, and the common fondness for peculiarly patriotic expressions of Christianity through the ages. At the same time, Lawrence is alert to recognising other ways in which Britain and Spain have seemed worlds apart in their respective corners of the European continent. He examines how British Protestants excoriated Spain in a ‘Black Legend’, while Catholic propagandists dismissed rising English power as the work of pirates and heretics during the early modern period.
In a series of chronological chapters rich with a diverse range of sources, Anglo-Hispania beyond the Black Legend considers the cultural exchanges which flourished amidst the growth of travel and new ideas in the 18th century, the surprising alliances of the 19th century and the shared international causes of the 20th. Whereas Spaniards feared or admired Britain for its successful political and fiscal system, the book convincingly argues, Britons romanticised Iberia for its supposed failures. It ultimately concludes that British campaigns in the 1700s and 1800s established a Romantic Spain in memoir culture which the 20th century gradually dissolved in the ideological cauldron of the 1930s and the advent of mass tourism.
August in Kabul
Authors: Quilty Andrew 
Published: October 2023

Told through the eyes of witnesses to the fall of Kabul, Walkley award-winning journalist Andrew Quilty's debut book offers a remarkable record of this historic moment.
As night fell on 15 August 2021, the Taliban entered Kabul, capital of Afghanistan. After a 20-year conflict with the United States, its Western allies and a proxy Afghan government, the Islamic militant group once aligned with al Qaeda was about to bury yet another foreign foe in the graveyard of empires. And for the US, world superpower, this was yet another foreign disaster. As cities and towns fell to the Taliban in rapid succession, Western troops and embassy staff scrambled to flee a country of which its government had lost control.
August in Kabul is the story of how America's longest mission came to an abrupt and humiliating end, told through the eyes of Afghans whose lives have been turned upside down: a young woman who harbours dreams of a university education; a presidential staffer who works desperately to hold things together as the government collapses around him; a prisoner in the notorious Bagram Prison who suddenly finds himself free when prison guards abandon their post. Andrew Quilty was one of only a handful of Western journalists who stayed in Kabul as the city fell. This is his first-hand account of those dramatic final days.
The Poisoned Chalice of US Democracy
Authors: Young John 
Published: October 2023

US-style democracy has failed the world. To understand why this is so and where we can go from here, it makes sense to look to the Global South, where US-style democracy has never developed strong roots, and where alternative models have already begun to emerge.
Drawing on three decades of personal, on-the-ground experience as well as on extensive research, renowned investigative journalist John Young offers a groundbreaking new account of that failure and of the emerging alternatives. Focusing on the countries in which his expertise is most authoritative—Ethiopia, Sudan, and South Sudan—Young shows that US democracy’s fatal flaw is that it is not democratic at all. Its exclusive focus on the supremacy of market capitalism necessarily entails a loss of national sovereignty and a truncated notion of human rights that leaves little room for citizens’ engagement or socio-economic justice. These shortcomings explain much of the struggle and conflict that have plagued the Horn of Africa since the 1970s, they lie at the heart of similar problems across the globe, and they have long since been particularly apparent in problems faced across Global South. It is little wonder, then, that the Global South leads the way in developing new and innovative grassroots struggles to overcome national oppression, end unequal development, and raise living standards
For its rich first-hand accounts of grassroots social and economic developments in the Horn of Africa, and for its theoretical rigor in extrapolating the lessons of those developments to interactions between US market-democracy and democratic movements in the Global South, this book is a must-read for researchers and students interested in international development, international political economy, African studies, and politics and international relations.
Nazi Germany, Annexed Poland, and Colonial Rule
Authors: O’Sullivan Rachel 
Published: October 2023

This book examines Nazi Germany’s expansion, population management and establishment of a racially stratified society within the Reichsgaue (Reich Districts) of Wartheland and Danzig-West Prussia in annexed Poland (1939-1945) through a colonial lens. The topic of the Holocaust has thus far dominated the scholarly debate on the relevance of colonialism for our understanding of the Nazi regime. However, as opposed to solely concentrating on violence to investigate whether the Holocaust can be located within wider colonial frameworks, Rachel O’Sullivan utilizes a broader approach by investigating other aspects, such as discourses and fantasies related to expansion, settlement, ‘civilising missions’ and Germanisation, which were also intrinsic to Nazi Germany’s rule in Poland.
The resettlement of the ethnic Germans—individuals of German descent who lived in Eastern Europe until the outbreak of the Second World War—forms a main focal point for this study’s analysis and investigation of colonial comparisons. The ethnic German resettlement in the Reichsgaue laid the foundations for the establishment and enforcement of German society and culture, while simultaneously intensifying the efforts to control Poles and remove Jews. Through this case study, O’Sullivan explores Nazi Germany’s dual usage of inclusionary policies, which attempted to culturally and linguistically integrate ethnic Germans and certain Poles into German society, and the contrasting exclusionary policies, which sought to rid annexed Poland of ‘undesirable’ population groups through segregation, deportation and murder. The book compares these policies, and the tactics used to implement them, to colonial and settler colonial methods of assimilation, subjugation and violence.
The Patterns of Comics
Authors: Cohn Neil 
Published: October 2023

Comics are a global phenomenon, and yet it’s easy to distinguish the visual styles of comics from Asia, Europe, or the United States. But, do the structures of these visual narratives differ in more subtle ways? Might these comics actually be drawn in different visual languages that vary in their structures across cultures?
To address these questions, The Patterns of Comics seeks evidence through a sustained analysis of an annotated corpus of over 36,000 panels from 350+ comics from Asia, Europe, and North America. This data-driven approach reveals the cross-cultural variation in symbology, layout, and storytelling between various visual languages, and shows how comics have changed across 80 years. It compares, for example, the subtypes within American comics and Japanese manga, and analyzes the formal properties of Bill Watterson’s Calvin and Hobbes across its entire 10-year run. Throughout, it not only uncovers the patterns in and across the panels of comics, but shows how these regularities in the visual languages of comics connect to the organizing principles of all languages.
Comics are a global phenomenon, yet we can recognize the visual styles originating from comics in Asia, Europe, or the United States. Yet, might these visual narratives differ in more subtle ways? Might comics actually be drawn in different visual languages that vary in their structures across cultures, just like the variation in spoken languages? To address these questions, The Patterns of Comics carries out a sustained analysis on data of more than 36,000 panels from over 350 comics from Asia, Europe, and the United States. This data-driven approach reveals the balance between cross-cultural diversity and universals in the visual morphology, layout, and storytelling of various visual languages used in comics. It shows how comics from the United States and Europe have changed across 80 years, compares the differences within types of American comics and Japanese manga, and analyzes the formal properties of Bill Watterson’s Calvin and Hobbes across its entire 10-year run. Throughout, it not only uncovers the hidden complexity in the structures of comics, but reveals how these regularities in the visual languages of comics connect to the organizing principles of all languages. Just what are the patterns of comics?
The Art of Mary Linwood
Authors: Strobel Heidi A. 
Published: October 2023

The Art of Mary Linwood is the first book on Leicester textile artist Mary Linwood (1755-1845) and catalogue of her work.
When British textile artist and gallery owner Mary Linwood died in 1845 just shy of 90 years old, her estate was worth the equivalent of £5,199,822 in today’s currency. As someone who made, but did not sell, embroidered replicas of famous artworks after artists such as Gainsborough, Reynolds, Stubbs, and Morland, how did she accumulate so much money? A pioneering woman in the male-dominated art world of late Georgian Britain, Linwood established her own London gallery in 1798 that featured copies of well-known paintings by these popular artists.
Featuring props and specially designed rooms for her replicas, she ensured that her visitors had an entertaining, educational, and kinetic tour, similar to what Madame Tussaud would do one generation later. The gallery’s focus on picturesque painters provided her London visitors with an idyllic imaginary journey through the countryside. Its emphasis on quintessentially British artists provided a unifying focus for a country that had recently emerged from the threat of Napoleonic invasion.
This book brings to the fore Linwood’s gallery guides and previously unpublished letters to her contemporaries, such as Birmingham inventor Matthew Boulton and Queen Charlotte. It also includes the first and only catalogue of Linwood’s extant and destroyed works. By examining Linwood’s replicas and their accompanying objects through the lens of material culture, the book provides a much-needed contribution to the scholarship on women and cultural agency in the early 19th century.
