On the reiterability of pragmata.A Schutzian «alternate» to the sociological concept of «practice»

description: My aim is to depict Schutz’s concept of pragma as a phenomenological «alternate» to the sociological concept of «practice». I will argue that Schutz offers a description of the ego ipse pragmatically constituted. This means that he is dealing with a particular kind of phenomenon – not with a mere idea but with an actual experience – . Nevertheless, it is a kind of experience which ethnomethodology cannot account for since it seeks to describe «the body’s ways» while Schutz observes not just the body’s but the ego’s pragma, which only in part can be externally observed since it not only has an objective but also a subjective aspect. Accordingly, pragmata are always pragmata of a self at work. They are the product of the ego working on its pragma. So the ego agens is the substratum and the origo of all pragmata and, through them, of social personalities. Finally, what makes Schutz’s conception of pragma so refreshing is that it takes into account what most sociologists emphasize nowadays – that practices are objective, blind, unconscious processes – and at the same time what those sociologists let aside – which they call «subject» with a derogative nuance – . Moreover, it articulates the subjective and the objective long before that contemporary sociology had claimed that it had overcame «dualism». To that purpose, the key concept is «reiterability». Pragmata are reiterable not only by the same ego agens that once started them but also by others. That’s why Schutz speaks of the «transferability» of pragmata, which makes possible the development of social habitus that play an important role in the constitution and stabilization of the system of our social attitudes.

description: Chitosan (Chit) cross-linked via glutaraldehyde to graphene oxide (GO) was prepared as the basic nanocomposite support for further modification. The Chit/GO nanocomposite was modified with carbon nanotubes (CNT) and/or magnetite (Fe3O4), to separate the GO sheets even further and/or to render the nanocomposite magnetic. Palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) was embedded into the matrix of the nanocomposite using Pd(OAc)2 as the palladium source. SEM and TEM were used to visually investigated the sheet separation of GO, the entrapment of GO in chitosan and embedding of Pd NPs in the nanocomposite matrix. The properties of the GO nanocomposites were investigated by Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (ATR FTIR), Thermo-Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), Inductively Coupled Plasma–Optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The applicability of these palladium-containing nanocomposites was investigated for the reduction of nitrophenol in the presence of NaBH4. The reduction reactions were followed by UV-Vis and their kinetic parameter were determined. All five Pd-containing nanocomposites displayed excellent catalytic activity towards the reduction of aromatic nitroarenes. The reduction of the nitrophenol compounds over all the nanocomposites showed pseudo first order kinetics with the estimate k′obs, between 2.0 × 10−3 and 2.5 × 10−2 s−1, and a possible mechanism for the reaction is proposed. Five Pd-containing nanocomposites, have been prepared by entrapping GO in chitosan and/or incorporating CNT and/or magnetite NP additives into the nanocomposites, followed by entrapment of Pd nanoparticles. The nanocomposites exhibited excellent catalytic activity towards the reduction of nitrophenol. ATR FTIR, SEM, TEM, TGA and XPS are effective characterisation tools of these surfaces.

description: Tight junctions (TJs) play a dominant role in gut barrier formation, therefore, resolving the structures of TJs in any animal species is crucial but of major importance in fast growing broilers. They are regulated in molecular composition, ultrastructure and function by intracellular proteins and the cytoskeleton. TJ proteins are classified according to their function into barrier-forming, scaffolding and pore-forming types with deductible consequences for permeability. In spite of their importance for gut health and its integrity limited studies have investigated the TJs in chickens, including the comprehensive evaluation of TJs molecular composition and function in the chicken gut. In the actual study sequence-specific probes to target different TJ genes (claudin 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 19, zonula occludens 1 (ZO1), occludin (OCLN) and tricellulin (MD2)) were designed and probe-based RT-qPCRs were newly developed. Claudin (CLDN) 1, 5, ZO1 and CLDN 3, 7, MD2 were engulfed in multiplex RT-qPCRs, minimizing the number of separate reactions and enabling robust testing of many samples. All RT-qPCRs were standardized for chicken jejunum and caecum samples, which enabled specific detection and quantification of the gene expression. Furthermore, the newly established protocols were used to investigate the age developmental changes in the TJs of broiler chickens from 1-35 days of age in the same organ samples. Results revealed a significant increase in mRNA expression between 14 and 21days of age of all tested TJs in jejunum. However, in caecum, mRNA expression of some TJs decreased after 1 day of age whereas some TJs mRNA remained constant till 35 days of age. Taken together, determining the segment-specific changes in the expression of TJ- proteins by RT-qPCR provides a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms underpinning pathophysiological changes in the gut of broiler chickens with various etiologies.

description: Hintergrund Es existieren zahlreiche theoretische Überlegungen dazu, was unter transkulturellen Kompetenzen von Psychotherapeuten zu verstehen ist. Die Frage, was sich jedoch Psychotherapeuten und Patienten selbst unter transkultureller Kompetenz vorstellen, ist bislang nicht untersucht worden. Unklar ist auch, inwiefern es sich bei transkultureller Kompetenz um eine Spezialkompetenz oder um eine Teilkomponente allgemeiner psychotherapeutischer Kernkompetenzen handelt. Ziel der Arbeit Die Studie geht der Frage nach, was sich Patienten und Psychotherapeuten unter transkultureller Kompetenz vorstellen, und ob es sich bei dieser Kompetenz um eine Spezialkompetenz oder um eine Teilkomponente allgemeiner psychotherapeutischer Kernkompetenzen handelt. Material und Methoden Zwölf problemzentrierte Interviews wurden leitfadengestützt mit Patienten mit Migrationshintergrund und Psychotherapeuten geführt und mithilfe der inhaltlich-strukturierenden qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse (Mayring 2008) ausgewertet. Ergebnisse Aus Sicht von Psychotherapeuten und Patienten bilden sich transkulturelle Kompetenzen in allgemeinen psychotherapeutischen Kernkompetenzen ab. Insbesondere das Eingehen auf die individuellen Anliegen der Patienten wurde als transkulturell kompetentes Handeln beschrieben. Schlussfolgerung Für die Entwicklung transkultureller Kompetenz bedarf es langfristiger Reflexionsprozesse und unmittelbarer Behandlungserfahrungen mit Patienten mit Migrationshintergrund. Diese Aspekte sollten in Konzeptionen für eine verbesserte Psychotherapeuten-Ausbildung berücksichtigt werden.

description: Dendritic cells (DC) play a central role in the pathogenesis of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), the most prevalent form of immunotoxicity in humans. However, knowledge on allergy-induced DC maturation is still limited and proteomic studies, allowing to unravel molecular effects of allergens, remain scarce. Therefore, we conducted a global proteomic analysis of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MoDC) treated with NiSO4, the most prominent cause of ACD and compared proteomic alterations induced by NiSO4 to the bacterial trigger lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Both substances possess a similar toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 binding capacity, allowing to identify allergy-specific effects compared to bacterial activation. MoDCs treated for 24 h with 2.5 mu g/ml LPS displayed a robust immunological response, characterized by upregulation of DC activation markers, secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and stimulation of T cell proliferation. Similar immunological reactions were observed after treatment with 400 mu M NiSO4 but less pronounced. Both substances triggered TLR4 and triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM) 1 signaling. However, NiSO4 also activated hypoxic and apoptotic pathways, which might have overshadowed initial signaling. Moreover, our proteomic data support the importance of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) as a key player in sensitization since many Nrf2 targets genes were strongly upregulated on protein and gene level selectively after treatment with NiSO4. Strikingly, NiSO4 stimulation induced cellular cholesterol depletion which was counteracted by the induction of genes and proteins relevant for cholesterol biosynthesis. Our proteomic study allowed for the first time to better characterize some of the fundamental differences between NiSO4 and LPS-triggered activation of MoDCs, providing an essential contribution to the molecular understanding of contact allergy.

description: We present the X method, an ultrafast and economical protocol for extracting high-quality genomic DNA from rice tissues. This protocol eliminates time-consuming enzymatic digestion and organic solvent steps by combining thermal lysis, salt-induced precipitation, and cryogenic ethanol purification. The method consistently yields DNA fragments >20 kb with minimal polysaccharide contamination, suitable for PCR, restriction digestion, and low-pass sequencing. From tissue disruption to DNA elution, the entire process requires only 10 minutes, demonstrating exceptional efficiency for field-to-lab workflows and high-throughput genotyping studies.

description: Plants and their associated below-ground microbiota possess the tools for rock weathering. Yet the quantitative evaluation of the impact of these biogenic weathering drivers relative to abiogenic parameters, such as the supply of primary minerals, water, and acids, is an open question in Critical Zone research. Here we present a novel strategy to decipher the relative impact of these drivers. We quantified the degree and rate of weathering and compared these to nutrient uptake along the "EarthShape" transect in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera. These sites define a major north-south gradient in precipitation and primary productivity but overlie granitoid rock throughout. We present a dataset of the chemistry of Critical Zone compartments (bedrock, regolith, soil, and vegetation) to quantify the relative loss of soluble elements (the "degree of weathering") and the inventory of bioavailable elements. We use (87)Sra center dot Sr-86 isotope ratios to identify the sources of mineral nutrients to plants. With rates from cosmogenic nuclides and biomass growth we determined fluxes ("weathering rates"), meaning the rate of loss of elements out of the ecosystems, averaged over weathering timescales (millennia), and quantified mineral nutrient recycling between the bulk weathering zone and the bulk vegetation cover. We found that neither the degree of weathering nor the weathering rates increase systematically with precipitation from north to south along the climate and vegetation gradient. Instead, the increase in biomass nutrient demand is accommodated by faster nutrient recycling. In the absence of an increase in weathering rate despite a five-fold increase in precipitation and net primary productivity (NPP), we hypothesize that plant growth might in fact dampen weathering rates. Because plants are thought to be key players in the global silicate weathering-carbon feedback, this hypothesis merits further evaluation.

description: Weathering and ecosystem nutrition are intimately linked through the supply of fresh mineral nutrients from regolith and bedrock (the "geogenic nutrient pathway"). However, the prominence of this link is dependent on the efficiency of nutrient recycling from plant litter (the "organic nutrient cycle"). Isotope ratios of strontium (Sr), an element that behaves similarly to Ca in ecosystems, confer two types of information: radiogenic Sr isotopes inform as to the sources of Sr and the degree of weathering, while stable Sr isotopes constrain partitioning between compartments of the Critical Zone (bedrock, water, secondary solids, and plants). To date, however, neither the reactions nor the mass balance between compartments that fractionate Sr isotopes, nor the fractionation factors involved, are well understood. Here, we present geochemical budgets of Sr (using radio genic and stable Sr isotopes, and Ca/Sr ratios) at four sites along a substantial climate and primary production gradient in the coastal mountains of Chile. We found that Sr release through weathering is isotopically congruent, and released Sr is not strongly isotopically fractionated either during secondary mineral formation or transfer into the exchangeable pool. Despite this, the Sr-88/Sr-86 ratio of bio-available Sr, which should reflect the ratio of dissolved Sr, is higher than that of rock and regolith. We propose that this offset is caused by plants: while Sr-88/Sr-86 in plant organs at the four study sites systematically increased from roots towards their leaves, whole-plant Sr isotope compositions indicate preferential uptake of light Sr into plants (with a fractionation of up to -0.3 parts per thousand relative to the bio-available pool). Despite this strong biological fractionation, Sr-88/Sr-86 ratios in bio-available Sr do not covary with biomass production across our study sites, because with greater plant growth Sr is recycled more times after release by weathering - an isotope-neutral process. Rather, the loss of Sr from the ecosystem in solid organic material sets the isotope ratio of dissolved or bio-available Sr. Organic solids thus appear to constitute a significant export path of elements released during weathering, with the removal of solid plant debris reducing the recycling factor of Sr, and possibly that of other mineral nutrients too.

description: Time-sharing Experiments for the Social Sciences (TESS) offers researchers the opportunity to capture the internal validity of experiments. Investigators submit proposals, and TESS fields successful proposals for free on a representative sample of adults in the United States. This experiment was conducted to measure the extent to which context affects value system ordering, and to determine the differences in priming effects when values are measured using ranking versus rating procedures. Four experimental conditions and two control conditions were included, divided into “ratings” and “rankings” subgroups. Respondents in the experimental conditions of the ratings subgroup were asked to rate the importance of various values on a scale of 1 to 5, while respondents in the experimental conditions of the rankings subgroup were asked to rank the importance of the same values relative to one another. The two experimental conditions in each subgroup were given a prime relating either to equality or economic security, while the control conditions were given the same questions with no prime. This allowed for comparisons of how the context of a prime affected the relative importance of certain values, as well as any effect of the differing methods of comparison.

description: As is the case in numerous natural processes, enzymatic phosphorylation can be used in the laboratory to influence the conformational populations of proteins. In nature, this information is used for signal transduction or energy transfer, but has also been shown to play an important role in many diseases like tauopathies or diabetes. With the goal of determining the effect of phosphorylation on amyloid fibril formation, we designed a model peptide which combines structural characteristics of α-helical coiled-coils and β-sheets in one sequence. This peptide undergoes a conformational transition from soluble structures into insoluble amyloid fibrils over time and under physiological conditions and contains a recognition motif for PKA (cAMP- dependent protein kinase) that enables enzymatic phosphorylation. We have analyzed the pathway of amyloid formation and the influence of enzymatic phosphorylation on the different states along the conformational transition from random-coil to β-sheet-rich oligomers to protofilaments and on to insoluble amyloid fibrils, and we found a remarkable directing effect from β -sheet-rich structures to unfolded structures in the initial growth phase, in which small oligomers and protofilaments prevail if the peptide is phosphorylated.

description: Attention is a critical faculty in contemporary Western societies. What is surprising is the fact that attention has been mainly analyzed as an individual phenomenon. Scientific research that treats attention exclusively on the individual level simplifies an enormously complex situation. Instead, according to the idea defended in this essay, one cannot think of attention and perception without regard for cultural conventions and social norms. This article therefore proposes to investigate attention precisely in its social dimension. In particular, the specific objective is to highlight the contribution Alfred Schutz’s theory of systems of relevance can give to the understanding of the social mechanisms that regulate attention. In order to demonstrate the viability of the Schutzian proposal, here are discussed some recent perspectives that explore the mechanisms of the social regulation of attention. The article will briefly revisit these contributions that explicitly investigate intersubjective and collective attention, and will focus especially on the proposals of Eviatar Zerubavel and Yves Citton. Then is analyzed the role of attention in the theoretical edifice of Schutz, to focus on the relationship between attention and systems of relevance.

description: The paper discusses in the first place the Bergson’s pragmatic concept of time and successively the Husserl’s concept of time and the lifeworld to define their influences for Alfred Schutz whose considerations on time started from Henry Bergson’s philosophy of duration. The Austrian sociologist uses Husserl’s considerations on the inner-time consciousness as a complement of Bergson’s theory. It’s a well-know fact that time is a foundamental topic for Schutz expecially in his Fragments toward a Phenomenology of Music (1944). Schutz’s phenomenological research on music takes in to account the Bergsonian connection of mind and body, of (inner ) time and space and their theoretical characterizazion. The paper examines finally Ilja Srubar’s differentiation between constituted an produced time. Coming a conclusion the paper distinguishes analitically a multiplicity of forms of time and the types of mechanism for their formation trying to describe the kind of interrelations are to found between these different forms as necessary elements in order to conceive a sociological theory of time.

Time, intersubjectivity, and musical relationship in Alfred Schutz
Creators: name: Venturini, Riccardo
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Firenze
Year: 2016
Subjects: Appresentation; Inner Consciousness of Time; Time and Intersubjectivity; We-relation

description: In this work I tackle certain aspects of the relationship between time and intersubjectivity in Alfred Schutz. I present a summary of the methodological architecture of the Austrian sociologist, outlining the specificity of the relationship between time and consciousness. I discuss the treatment of the musical experience as an example of the peculiar declination of a series of temporal dynamics connected to the intersubjective creation of meanings. Finally, I set out some thoughts related to the debate on the relationship between time, intersubjectivity and music in Schutz. The musical relationship is a context endowed with meaning, not the object of conceptualization, that allows us to identify in a paradigmatic way the relationship between the subjective sense and experience of the other. The theory of appresentation of Schutz is the center of the process of constitution of meaning of the understanding of the other. The emergence of meaning is related to the dynamics of the passive and active poles of the consciousness and the constitution, in the we-relation, of a radically intersubjective dimension that exceeds the Cartesian distinction between inside and outside.

Alfred Schutz’s main contributions to the field of economic reflection
Creators: name: López, Daniela Griselda
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Firenze
Year: 2016
Subjects: Alfred Schutz; Phenomenologically Oriented Sociology; Economic Sociology; Interpretive Economics

description: For several decades, contemporary social theory has held a considerable misunderstanding around phenomenologically oriented sociology, which has undermined its heuristic potential and, as a consequence, has pushed its conclusions to a marginal place in current discussions. In contrast, our article aims to recover that hermeneutical framework in order to think economic phenomena such as the economic action and the order of the market processes. It is undeniable that Alfred Schutz’s work provides theoretical and methodological elements for the sociological analysis of the economic world. The linkages between Schutz-
ian sociology and economic reflection vary widely, ranging from his formative stage within the context of the Mises Circle to the current recovery of his work by Economic Sociology. Within this framework, the aim of this work is to summarize Schutz’s main contributions to the field of economic reflection. The recovery and systematization of the Schutzian vocabulary -in the interface between sociology and economics- can contribute with new elements not only to think from a theoretical point of view but also to address economic phenomena empirically.

description: The implementation of potassium fluoride treatments as a doping and surface modification procedure in chalcopyrite absorber preparation has recently gained much interest since it led to new record efficiencies for this kind of solar cells. In the present work, Cu(In,Ga)Se2 absorbers have been evaporated on alkali containing Mo/soda-lime glass substrates. We report on compositional and electronic changes of the Cu(In,Ga)Se2 absorber surface as a result of a post deposition treatment with KF (KF PDT). In particular, by comparing standard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and synchrotron-based hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES), we are able to confirm a strong Cu depletion in the absorbers after the KF PDT which is limited to the very near surface region. As a result of the Cu depletion, we find a change of the valence band structure and a shift of the valence band onset by approximately 0.4 eV to lower binding energies which is tentatively explained by a band gap widening as expected for Cu deficient compounds. The KF PDT increased the open circuit voltage by 60–70 mV compared to the untreated absorbers, while the fill factor deteriorated.
Biography and Action: A Schutzian Perspective to Life-world
Creators: name: Santos, Hermílio
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Firenze
Year: 2016
Subjects: Action; Biographical Narrative; Everyday Life-World; Free-Will

description: Starting with the discussion on free-will and action, this paper discusses how Alfred Schutz approaches these issues for the comprehension of life-world. After a brief overview on how contemporary philosophers as Ernst Tugendhat and Ulrich Pothast face these problem, it is argued that for Schutz action plays a central role in his conception of life-world. The article goes further and advocates for the importance of exploring individual biographies as a way to provide an accurate understanding of actions. By the end of this text, it is suggested that the biographical narrative approach, as proposed by Fritz Schütze, as well as by Gabriele Rosenthal, is an important contribution to the Schutz’ perspective of the life-world and to adequately explore the most different social phenomena.

description: Squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) are malignant tumors of the epidermal cells with varying degrees of keratinocyte differentiation. They are common tumors in mammalian and avian species but there are, however, only two description of SCC in tortoises. In this case report we describe two cases of non-metastatic squamous cell carcinomas of the carapax and the plastron in Hermann’s tortoises with evidence of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (HHM) in one case. HHM is thought to be associated with SCC in mammals due to de novo secretion of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) by the tumor cells or tumor induced osteolysis but has not been described in reptiles so far.
Schutz, Berger and Luckmann.The question of the natural attitude
Creators: name: Muzzetto, Luigi
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Firenze
Year: 2016

description: The purpose of this paper is to highlight different interpretations of the fundamental characteristics of the natural attitude, as formulated by Berger and Luckmann, and Alfred Schutz respectively. The first part of the paper explores the notion of taken-for-granted in the everyday life-world in The Social Construction of Reality by Berger and Luckmann and The Problem of Multiple Realities: Alfred Schutz and Robert Musil by Berger. The two essays show the presence of a articulated vision based on the same theoretical matrix. The second part of the paper analyses the essential characteristics of the natural attitude in the work of Husserl and Schutz. Although Berger and Luckmann are commonly viewed as being Schutzian scholars, their work actually presents significant differences, not only with respect to Husserl, but also to Schutz himself.

A well-informed ‘model of administration’ for agrarian states. Or: how not to fall into the trap of ‘nostri cation’ when comparing colonial West African States with 18th century Prussia
Creators: name: Treiber, Hubert
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Firenze
Year: 2016

description: In a noteworthy essay entitled “The Operation Called Vergleichen (Comparison)” Joachim Matthes has drawn attention to the fact that studies which claim to compare particular phenomena from one’s own culture (such as law or administration, for example) with those of an alien culture do not, strictly speaking, perform a real comparison.  Instead, what takes place is (in his words) a “nostrification”, that is, “an appropriation of the other in one’s own terms” or conceptual assimilation.  Even the ideal-type constructions of Max Weber seem largely to confirm this proposition.  In principle, then, it ought to be quite hard to find studies which are not exposed to the charge of nostrification.  In what follows works by Gerd Spittler are examined in some detail from this particular perspective.  In the first instance Spittler investigated the specific problems encountered by the colonial administration in West African peasant states (1919-39), before examining if this problematic could be applied to the peasant state of Prussia in the 18th century.  So, for example, he asked himself how a bureaucratic administration reliant on written documents resolved the problem of raising taxes on a body of untruly peasants who to a large extent communicated orally amongst themselves.  Since in both cases Spittler relates the typical structures of an agrarian society to typical administrative structures, he attains a level of reflection where the ‘“One” can be translated into the “Other” and vice versa’ (Matthes), and in this way he escapes the particular danger of nostrification.
