Minimum power routing for multihop cellular networks
Creators: name: Ananda Kusuma, A. A. N.
name: Andrew, Lachlan L. H.
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In multihop cellular networks, mobiles with no good path to any base station may instead relay their calls through other mobiles with better propagation conditions. This can improve coverage and capacity, and reduce the required total transmission power, but its effectiveness depends greatly on the routing strategy used. This paper investigates the minimum possible aggregate transmit power in the presence of interference in a single-cell multihop cellular network. The new concept of interference-sensitive link costs is introduced, and is shown to perform substantially better than routing based solely on path loss, which is optimal in the noise-limited case.
Filling the Evidence Gap : Pragmatic randomized controlled trials in British Columbia
Creators: name: Therapeutics Initiative (University Of British Columbia)
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Therapeutics Letter 88 explores the use of pragmatic randomized trials as a means of addressing gaps in evidence. Compared to efficacy trials, pragmatic (effectiveness) trials are intended to answer the questions that clinicians and patients have regarding therapy. Gaps in evidence may related to the need for more representative subjects in trials, the need for better assessment of harms, as well as the need for more meaningful patient-oriented outcomes.
A debate for the internationality of learning materials

description: In practice we promote re-usability, flexibility, and the sharing of resources. How do our current practices actually support these desired outcomes within an international context? Observation within a discipline may show that learning materials are autonomous by design. Why? The argument presented in this paper is that academics are subject to their own cultural understandings and rules which lead to questioning the usability of learning materials in the first place. To afford usability of learning materials it is proposed that a collaborative multi-cultural approach be explored for their development.

description: Meet Katherine. She loves the internet. She has been using it for over 13 years and is on it for more than four hours every day. She uses it mainly for research and email and, of course, instant messaging, where she keeps in touch with her partner of 10 years, John. They use the internet as a means of staying connected and, on occasion, for engaging in cyber-sex, which she describes as 'fun'. When they first met face to face, Katherine said they couldn't keep their hands off each other. Sound familiar? You bet! Recent research has shown that almost 30 million people in America know someone who has been in a long-term relationship or has married someone they met online, and over 63 million know someone who has used an online dating site.

The re-entry adjustment of Thai students in the transition from graduation in Australia to the return home
Creators: name: Rujipak, Thanyalak
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Many studies on the cross-cultural adjustment of international students focus on the experience in a host country, rather than re-entry adjustment into the home country. Reentry adjustment presents a range of problems, possibly even more severe than adjustment in a host country. The study investigates the transition of Thai international students over an eight-month period from graduation in Australia to their return home to Thailand. The nature of the transition experience and the factors influencing crosscultural adjustment are examined using a mixed methods approach. Specifically, patterns of adjustment over transition periods, based on self-report measures of psychological well-being and life satisfaction, were examined amongst 119 Thai international students and 211 of their Thai counterparts in Thailand. Qualitative interviews explored the transition experience in-depth. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was employed to test hypothesized models of cross-cultural adjustment. Self-efficacy, loneliness, and social difficulty were found to predict socio-cultural adjustment which, in turn, influenced life satisfaction and psychological well-being in both groups. For the international student group, value change predicted socio-cultural readjustment and life satisfaction six months after reentry. Life satisfaction was also significantly predicted by expectation discrepancy at this time. Importantly, host country adjustment was found to influence re-entry adjustment, in particular, socio-cultural adjustment and life satisfaction. Furthermore, longitudinal patterns of cross-cultural adjustment for Thai international students over three time periods found partial support for the U-curve hypothesis, while, as expected, this pattern was not the case for those who studied in Thailand. In-depth data about the re-entry experience emerged from the qualitative phase. Thai students reported difficulties in readjusting to their home culture. Such difficulties arose from a sense of loss of the familiar overseas context as well as a loss of freedom and privacy. The study also found that the degree of readjustment difficulties was related to the gap between the home and host culture, and the differences between initial expectations and the reality of the transition experience. The research contributes to the literature related to the process of re-entry adjustment and, in particular, the reverse culture shock experience. It contributes to understandings of the re-entry adjustment phenomenon of Thai international students. Recommendations for practice include the development of re-entry adjustment programs to assist international students to successfully readjust into their home country, as well as the improvement of service delivery of organizations working with international students.

description: The success of the ensemble Kalman filter has triggered a strong interest in expanding its scope beyond classical state estimation problems. In this paper, we focus on continuous-time data assimilation where the model and measurement errors are correlated and both states and parameters need to be identified. Such scenarios arise from noisy and partial observations of Lagrangian particles which move under a stochastic velocity field involving unknown parameters. We take an appropriate class of McKean–Vlasov equations as the starting point to derive ensemble Kalman–Bucy filter algorithms for combined state and parameter estimation. We demonstrate their performance through a series of increasingly complex multi-scale model systems.

No pain, no game: use of an online game to explore issues of online identity and the implications for collaborative e-learning
Creators: name: Hughes, Gwyneth

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: As computer-mediated communication (CMC) is becoming more mainstream in higher education (HE), the issue of social interaction online and its impact on learning has been raised. CMC theorists have argued that shared group identity produces the online social presence necessary for successful interaction but that other identities may be inhibiting. Meanwhile, advocates of the liberating potential of online communication have drawn on postmodern interpretations of identity to argue that the online world offers freedom from the constraints of social identities such as gender and class, but critics argue that social behaviours and stereotypes are not transcended but are reproduced through language and style. Salmon's five-step model promotes social interaction as a basis for collaborative e-learning, but it does not encourage such a critical exploration of online identity. To address these issues, this article explores the development and use of an online identity creation game to examine how participants respond to making online identity more visible, and to review the implications for e-learning. Discourse analysis was used to study the game from a researcher-participant perspective. Nearly all players pursued a low-risk strategy of concentrating on their own identity rather than on those of peers and were anxious about applying social conventions online. While many understood how online identity is constructed though descriptive text, only a minority was aware that style and language can also create identity, thus exhibiting what we term online 'listening' skills. The game made transparent some of the difficulties in developing the online presence required for collaborative e-learning and suggests a more general need for learners to acquire familiarity with the processes of online identity construction.

description: No-one involved in tertiary education over the past few decades would have failed to have noticed the dramatic and multifaceted transformations of the circumstances in which we teach. The trends towards privatization and commodification of education have been well documented, but equally significant is the transformation of the student body that has been brought about by intersecting global social, cultural and political developments. In Australia, the postwar immigration program, the expansion of tertiary education, and the globalization of education have combined to present us with classrooms comprised of ever larger numbers of students, many of whom are second-generation migrants and/or first-generation tertiary students.

description: In Deutschland haben der deutliche Ausbau und die häufigere Nutzung von Versorgungsangeboten in den letzten Dekaden nicht zu sinkenden Prävalenzen psychischer Störungen geführt. Zur Deutung dieses Phänomens werden drei Erklärungsansätze diskutiert: 1) Prävention und Versorgung sind mangelhaft und ineffektiv, 2) eine durch zunehmende gesellschaftliche Risiken wachsende Morbidität wirkt Versorgungserfolgen entgegen oder 3) ein psychologischer Kulturwandel bedingt sowohl die häufigere Wahrnehmung als auch Behandlung psychischer Symptome und Störungen. Zur Bewertung dieser theoretischen Erklärungsmodelle werden Ergebnisse aus Bevölkerungssurveys und Versorgungsforschung in Deutschland sowie die international geführte Debatte präsentiert und diskutiert. Für alle drei Erklärungsmodelle lassen sich Belege finden: 1) Probleme bei der Implementierung von Präventionsmaßnahmen, beim Zugang zu Behandlungsangeboten und bei deren Qualität sind dokumentiert, 2) Einflüsse der vielgestaltigen Entwicklung von gesellschaftlichen und kulturellen Risikofaktoren auf Häufigkeit und Folgenschwere psychischer Störungen können nicht ausgeschlossen werden und 3) die auch hierzulande steigende Gesundheitskompetenz in der Bevölkerung hinsichtlich psychischer Störungen legt nahe, dass (Lebens‑)Probleme heute häufiger psychologisch interpretiert und behandelt werden. Zur Bewertung von Veränderungen in der Versorgungslandschaft und ihren Auswirkungen sollten neben Prävalenzen psychischer Störungen auch Inzidenzen (und deren potenzielle Verringerung durch Präventionsmaßnahmen) sowie Indikatoren des Behandlungsbedarfes (wie z. B. Funktionseinschränkungen) und der Mortalität (wie z. B. Suizide und verkürzte Lebenserwartung) berücksichtigt werden.
Deepened mirrors of cultural learning: the potential of learning management systems
Creators: name: Andrew, Martin
Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: This paper qualitatively analyzes reflective data gathered from learners' electronic and paper writings about their cultural learning in and about New Zealand. The data comes from three intakes of learners in 'Culture and New Zealand Society,' a second-year course for migrant and international learners within a Bachelor of Arts in English as an Additional Language (BA [EAL]) at a tertiary institute in New Zealand. As part of an assessment of cultural learning, students write and reflect on their cultural observations and experiences. They submit reflective writings in two forms: a 150-word e-text journal entry using the rhetorical e-spaces of Blackboard, and a 1,000-word paper journal account of cultural and linguistic learning during community participation. After the data in the e-writings had been open coded, a range of themes emerged. This paper presents results in two key areas: the development of identities through reflective positioning (Pavlenko & Blackledge, 2005), and the useful 'realness' of community placement to highlight and complement class 'content.' Themes emerged from analyzing the e-texts and matched themes in the journals. The analysis suggests that e-writings have the potential to make students 'think beyond the square' (Coster & Ledovski, 2005). E-text journal entries are at least as useful as paper texts in mapping learners' cultural and metacognitive awareness. This poses the question that e-moderated writings might reflect more candor and could hence reflect deeper mirrors of learning.
title: Private enforcement of competition law through collective redress

description: Die Masterarbeit befasst sich mit kleinen und weitverbreiteten überhöhten Preisen infolge wettbewerbswidrigen Verhaltens, das Verbraucher schädigt und zu geringen Schäden führt, die keine Individualklagen rechtfertigen. Ziel ist es, kollektive Rechtsschutzmechanismen zur privaten Durchsetzung des Wettbewerbsrechts im brasilianischen und portugiesischen Kontext mit Hilfe einer vergleichenden Forschungsmethodik zu untersuchen. Der europäische Rahmen, der den portugiesischen kollektiven Rechtsschutz im Wettbewerbsrecht ermöglicht, wurde untersucht. Die empirische Untersuchung umfasste die Analyse von Gerichtsverfahren, in denen das Forschungsthema behandelt wurde. Dabei zeigte sich, dass die brasilianischen Musterverfahren als verbindliche Präzedenzfälle dienen, um widersprüchliche Entscheidungen in bereits anhängigen Fällen zu vermeiden. Sie adressieren jedoch nicht das Problem der Trägheit der Verbraucher bei der Geltendmachung kartellrechtlicher Schadensersatzansprüche.
description: The master thesis focuses on small and widespread overcharges resulting from anticompetitive behavior that harm consumers, resulting in minor damages that do not justify individual lawsuits. The aim is to investigate collective redress mechanisms for private enforcement of Competition Law in both Brazilian and Portuguese contexts using comparative research methodology. The European framework enabling Portuguese collective redress for Competition Law was examined. Empirical research involved analyzing lawsuits discussing the research topic, revealing that Brazilian test cases serve as binding precedents to prevent conflicting rulings on already filed cases. However, they do not address the issue of consumer inertia in seeking antitrust damages.

description: Gewalt gegen Frauen ist nach wie vor ein großes Problem auf der ganzen Welt, wobei Südostasien eine der Regionen mit der höchsten Prävalenz solcher Gewalt ist. Internationale Menschenrechtsverträge, insbesondere CEDAW und DEVAW, verpflichten die Staaten dazu, Frauen vor Gewalt zu schützen. In dieser Masterarbeit werden die staatlichen Maßnahmen gegen Gewalt gegen Frauen auf den Philippinen und in Kambodscha untersucht, um festzustellen, ob diese Maßnahmen im Vergleich zu den internationalen Menschenrechtsstandards umfassend sind, und um zu ermitteln, wie sie verbessert werden können, um Frauen besser zu schützen. Die Arbeit analysiert die beiden Länder unter Anwendung eines menschenrechtsbasierten Ansatzes anhand von Struktur- und Prozessindikatoren, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf den gesetzlichen Grundlagen und deren Umsetzung liegt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass zwar keines der beiden Länder die internationalen Standards vollständig erfüllt, beide jedoch erhebliche Anstrengungen unternommen haben. Insbesondere der stärkere Rechtsrahmen der Philippinen korreliert mit einer erfolgreicheren Umsetzung und könnte Kambodscha als Modell dienen, um den Schutz von Frauen zu verbessern. Es wurden Lücken im Rechtsrahmen und Mängel bei der Umsetzung aufgezeigt und Empfehlungen für Verbesserungen ausgesprochen.
description: Violence against women continues to be a significant problem around the world, with South-East Asia being one of the regions with the highest prevalence of such violence. International human rights treaties, particularly CEDAW and DEVAW, place obligations on states to protect women from violence. This thesis examines the state responses to violence against women in the Philippines and Cambodia to determine whether these responses are comprehensive compared to international human rights standards and identifies how they can be improved to protect women better. Using a human rights-based approach, the study analyses both countries' efforts through structural and process indicators, focusing on legal frameworks and their implementation. The findings show that while neither country fully meets international standards, both have made considerable efforts. In particular, the Philippines' stronger legal framework correlates with more successful implementation, potentially providing a model Cambodia could adopt to strengthen its protection of women. Gaps in the legal framework and shortcomings in implementation were highlighted, and recommendations for improvement were made.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

title: The effects of short-term rentals on housing markets
Creators: name: Siri, Itay
Year: 2024

description: Diese Studie untersucht die Auswirkungen neuer Vorschriften für Kurzzeitvermietungen (STR) auf den Mietwohnungsmarkt in Wien mithilfe eines Difference-in-Differences (DiD)-Ansatzes, wobei München als Kontrollgruppe dient. Die am 1. Juli 2024 eingeführte Vorschrift begrenzt STRs auf 90 Tage pro Jahr. Die Analyse konzentriert sich auf Airbnb-Angebote und durchschnittliche Mietpreise in den inneren und äußeren Bezirken Wiens. Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine signifikante Verringerung der Wachstumsrate der Airbnb-Angebote in Wien nach der Einführung der Vorschrift im Vergleich zu München, was auf eine erste Einhaltung der neuen Regeln hinweist. Innerhalb Wiens stiegen die Mietpreise in den äußeren Bezirken (10-23) weniger als in den inneren Bezirken (1-9), den Wohnzonen, was auf eine lokale Wirkung der Vorschrift hinweist. Der Vergleich mit München, wo strenge STR-Vorschriften die Vermietungen auf 8 Wochen pro Jahr und nur 50 % der Nutzung der Immobilie für Airbnb begrenzen, hebt die potenziellen langfristigen Auswirkungen hervor. In München werden nur 35 % der Angebote von kommerziellen Anbietern verwaltet, verglichen mit 65 % in Wien. Die Studie kommt zu dem Schluss, dass die Wiener Vorschrift beginnt, die Dynamik des STR-Marktes und die Inflation der Mietpreise zu moderieren. Eine fortgesetzte Überwachung ist notwendig, um die langfristigen Auswirkungen vollständig zu verstehen und zukünftige politische Anpassungen zu informieren, um das Gleichgewicht zwischen Tourismus und Stabilität des Wohnungsmarktes zu gewährleisten.
description: This study investigates the impact of new short-term rental (STR) regulations on Vienna's rental housing market using a Difference-in-Differences (DiD) approach, with Munich as a control. Implemented on July 1, 2024, the regulation restricts STRs to 90 days annually. The analysis focuses on Airbnb listings and average rental prices in Vienna’s inner and outer districts. The findings reveal a significant reduction in the growth rate of Airbnb listings in Vienna post-regulation compared to Munich, suggesting initial compliance with the new rules. Within Vienna, rental prices increased less in the outer districts (10-23) than in the inner districts (1-9), with a predominance of residential zones, indicating a localized impact of the regulation. The comparison with Munich, which has strict STR regulations limiting rentals to 8 weeks per year and only 50% property use for Airbnb, highlights the potential long-term effects. In Munich, only 35% of listings are managed by commercial hosts, compared to 65% in Vienna. The study concludes that Vienna's new regulation is beginning to moderate STR market dynamics and rental price inflation. Continued monitoring is necessary to understand the long-term implications fully and to inform future policy adjustments for balancing tourism and housing market stability.

 Diagnosis. Medium-sized moths with dark yellow forewing ground colour and pattern consisting of brown spots and wavy and irregularly dentate transverse lines and elliptical discal spot. Hindwings yellow, without pattern. The male genitalia of Barsochrista are similar to those of Ammatho and Ovipennis, but are characterised by such an autapomorphic feature as the voluminous, tubercle-like and heavily sclerotised medial costal process (whereas in Ammatho and Ovipennis that is flattened, lobe-, stick- or thorn-like. The voluminous tubercle-like medial costal process is also present in Esmasura, but it is weakly sclerotised and densely setose. In addition, the aedeagus vesica of Barsochrista is more or less round and bears two bunches of long and robust cornuti, whereas in Ammatho vesica bears broad clusters of small cornuti or granulation; in Ovipennis, bunches of spines are also present, but they are positioned on elongated diverticula. Female genitalia of Barsochrista are most similar to those of Nebulene due to the very short and membranous ductus bursae, but differ by the presence of clusters of numerous robust spinules in the posterior section of corpus bursae (that bears sclerotised dentate plates in Nebulene) and the large membranous appendix bursae originating from the anterior section of corpus bursae. The latter feature is also known in the genus Asuridia only.
 Distribution. Sri Lanka and southern India.
 Number of species. The genus comprises two valid species reviewed by Volynkin & Ivanova (2017).

 Diagnosis. Small moths with reddish colouration and black pattern. The male genital capsule of Asuridia is most similar to that of Ammatho, but is characterised by the densely setose medial costal process and sacculus. In aedeagus vesica, the large hook-like curved membranous diverticulum is characteristic. Female genitalia are dissimilar to those of Ammatho and resemble those of Barsochrista due to the appendix bursae originating from the anterior section of corpus bursae, but in Asuridia that is weakly scobinated and directed anteriorly. In addition, for female genitalia of Asuridia the following features are characteristic: (1) the antevaginal plate is large and strongly rugose (absent in Barsochrista and Ammatho); (2) the ductus bursae is asymmetrically sclerotised (dissimilar to Barsochrista and Ammatho, but this feature is represent in Barsura also).
 Distribution. Himalaya, Mainland China, Taiwan and northern Indochina.
 Number of species. The genus comprises 11 valid species. Species distributed in New Guinea and surrounding islands formerly treated as members of Asuridia by de Vos (2019) are obviously unrelated to Asuridia in fact and provisionally transferred here to the genus Integrivalvia.

 Pseudobarsine bombdilensis N. Singh & Kirti, 2016, by original designation).
 Diagnosis. Small moths with yellow colouration and blackish ‘miltochristoid’ pattern. Both species of the genus are very similar externally to some Miltochrista species. The male genital capsule is also similar to that of some Miltochrista groups due to the absence of both costal processes, but is characterised by the presence of such an autapomorphic feature as a swollen setose short process at base of a distal saccular process. The aedeagus vesica has several diverticula, some of which bear clusters of small spinules. The female genitalia can be recognised by the following two autapomorphic features: (1) the weakly sclerotised but densely spinulose antevaginal plate; and (2) the shortly dentate postvaginal plate. In addition, the corpus bursae densely spinulose, the appendix bursae short, membranous, situated postero-laterally.
 Distribution. Nepal, northern and northeastern India, northwestern Myanmar.
 Number of species. The genus comprises two valid species.

description: Gonadal steroids are potent regulators of adult neurogenesis. We previously reported that androgens, such as testosterone (T) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT), but not estradiol, increased survival of new neurons in the dentate gyrus of the male rat. These results suggest androgens regulate hippocampal neurogenesis via the androgen receptor (AR). To test this supposition, we examined the role of ARs in hippocampal neurogenesis using two different approaches. In Experiment 1, we examined neurogenesis in male rats insensitive to androgens due to a naturally occurring mutation in the gene encoding the AR (termed TFMs) compared to wild type males. In Experiment 2, we injected the AR antagonist, flutamide, into castrated male rats and compared neurogenesis levels in the dentate gyrus of DHT and oil-treated controls. In Experiment 1, chronic T increased hippocampal neurogenesis in wild type males but not in androgen-insensitive TFM males. In Experiment 2, DHT increased hippocampal neurogenesis via cell survival, an effect that was blocked by concurrent treatment with flutamide. DHT, however, did not affect cell proliferation. Interestingly, cells expressing doublecortin, a marker of newborn immature neurons, did not colabel with ARs in the DG, but ARs were robustly expressed in other regions of the hippocampus. Together, these studies provide complementary evidence that androgens regulate adult neurogenesis in the hippocampus via the AR but at a site other than the dentate gyrus. Understanding where in the brain androgens act to increase the survival of new neurons in the adult brain may have implications for neurodegenerative disorders.

description: This practice-based research project addresses the application of digital technology in wayfinding for use in a museum environment, specifically the National Science and Technology Museum (NSTM) of Taiwan. According to the New Museology, at the beginning of the twentieth century, museums were no longer just places where artifacts/ objects were conserved but had become more human-oriented. One of the ways this human orientation was reflected was in greater attention to visitor wayfinding in the museum environment. A wayfinding system, such as a paper map or sign, is a channel of communication by which people locate themselves. This research views the humanoriented aspect as the central idea in the production of a smart, flexible wayfinding device, which can communicate instantly with visitors and museum personnel who share wayfinding needs during their visit to the museum. Activity-Centered Design is a practiceoriented design methodology and is used in this research to examine existing problems of the wayfinding system in the NSTM, to critically analyse the tensions between the traditional system and the possible future digital wayfinding device (the prototype of this design research), and to propose benefits this new wayfinding device might bring in terms of a new visiting experience. The results from user feedback, based on a questionnaire, an interview and prototype testing in the NSTM, indicate that most of the participants agreed that this digital wayfinding device was more effective in assisting them to find their location than the traditional wayfinding system, and that a more humanised interaction with the environment was a valuable tool to increase the level of visitor satisfaction.

description: Die partielle Demontage einer Gedenktafel2 hat einen ständig schwelenden ideologischen Grundsatzstreit um die Identität und das Selbstverständnis der indischen Nation erneut entflammt. Dreh- und Angelpunkt der Diskussion ist die wohl umstrittenste und facettenreichste Figur der indischen Geschichte, Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. Sein Leben und Wirken, allem voran seine literarischen Arbeiten, weisen zahlreiche paradoxe und kontroverse Phänomene auf. Seine politische Vision für ein postkoloniales Indien, manifestiert in der Sozialund Staatstheorie Hindutva, standen von Anfang an in diametralem Gegensatz zu den Verfassungsprinzipien der neu gegründeten Indischen Union. Insbesondere seine folgenreiche Definition eines Hindu, verstanden als ein zu erfüllender Kriterienkatalog für den Erwerb der Staatsbürgerschaft, führte dazu, dass er als personifizierter Antipode zu dem durch die Unabhängigkeitsbewegung unter der Führung von Mohandas Karamchand (Mahatma) Gandhi proklamierten Fundamentalkonsens der indischen Gesellschaft betrachtet wurde. Diese prinzipielle Übereinstimung bezüglich der Grundwerte der indischen Gesellschaft, dass damit implizierte Selbstverständnis der Nation und die Legitimität der darauf aufgebauten sozialstrukturellen wie politischen Organisation wird zunehmend durch verschiedene Gruppen der Gesellschaft unter Berufung auf Savarkars Hindutva in den letzten beiden Dekaden herausgefordert und in Frage gestellt. Dieses in Verbindung mit seinem Einsatz für einen militanten Aktivismus und Nationalismus zur Befreiung Indiens von der britischen Kolonialmacht rückte ihn in den Mittelpunkt des kritischen öffentlichen Diskurses.

description: Indien wird mit guten Gründen als funktionierende Demokratie angesehen. Mit Argusaugen wacht die im Range einer Verfassungsinstitution stehende unabhängige Zentrale Wahlkommission über den Ablauf der nationalen Wahlen zur Volkskammer (Lok Sabha), zu denen heutzutage über 600 Millionen Wähler aufgerufen werden, und zu den Landtagen in den Bundesländern. Verletzungen der Wahlordnungen und Fälschungen bei der Auszählung der Stimmen werden rigoros geahndet. Aber es gibt auch eine dunkle Seite der indischen Demokratie. Indien leidet unter der Last und Problematik der historisch, ja religiös bedingten sozialen Diskriminierung von mehr als 250 Millionen Menschen, die sich als Dalits und Adivasi in einer schier ausweglosen Lage befinden und das Gros der Armut auf dem Subkontinent ausmachen. Ihre Zahl wächst, wenn auch der Prozentsatz an der Gesamtbevölkerung ganz langsam abnimmt. Ohne die Überwindung der sozialen Diskriminierung dieser Bevölkerungsgruppen können Armut und Analphabetentum nicht bewältigt werden. Die politische Integration im Wege des Quotensystems kann zum Abbau der praktizierten sozialen Ausgrenzung führen. Große Teile der politischen Führungsschicht sind sich dieser schicksalhaften Aufgabe bewusst. Aber die Umsetzung dieser Strategie gegen einen unterschwelligen Widerstand von Teilen der Bevölkerung ist eine Sisyphusaufgabe der indischen Demokratie, ihrer Glaubwürdigkeit und ihrer Überlebensfähigkeit.

(Figs 55, 56, 132, 188)
 Graptasura Hampson, 1900, Catalogue of Lepidoptera Phalaenae in the British Museum 2: 421 (Type species:
 Cyme polygrapha Felder, 1874, by original designation).
 Diagnosis. Medium-sized or small moths with elongated wings, yellow colouration and black pattern. Antennae of both sexes ciliate. Male genitalia capsule is similar to that of the related Asura, but differs clearly by the absence of a medial costal process. The aedeagus structure is very similar to that of Floridasura and, compared to that of Asura, displays the following differences: in Graptasura the aedeagus tube is conspicuously more elongated and narrower, its apex with elongated band-like extensions protruding to the vesica base; the vesica of Graptasura has a characteristic finger-like dorsal diverticulum and several smaller diverticula, some of which bear narrow bunches of very small spinules, whereas in Asura vesica may have various shape and diverticula configuration, but always bears large clusters (bunches or band-like ones) of longer and more robust spinules. The female genitalia of Graptasura are most similar to those of Floridasura, but differ by the antrum structure: in Graptasura the postero-lateral lobes are short and narrow, the medial concavity is broad and shallow, the medial dentate plate is absent, and the anterior section bears two small tubercle-like processes. In addition, Graptasura lacks a sclerotised posterior plate at appendix bursae base, which is present in Floridasura.
 Distribution. Malay Peninsula, Borneo and Sulawesi Islands.
 Number of species. The genus comprises four valid species.

Die Neuauflage der indischen Zivilrechtsdebatte 2003 und ihre Darstellung in der englischsprachigen Presse

description: „Wie gefährlich ist der Islam?“, fragte die Wochenzeitung Die Zeit anlässlich der Terroranschläge vom 7. Juli 2005 in London und veröffentlichte hierzu unter anderem eine Polemik des britisch-indischen Schriftstellers Salman Rushdie gegen die Institutionen der islamischen Rechtsprechung in Indien und Pakistan.1 Ohne ihren geschichtlichen Hintergrund näher zu erläutern, nimmt Rushdie darin auch auf den jüngsten Streit über das islamische Personenstandsrecht in Indien Bezug, der die indische Medienöffentlichkeit gegenwärtig beschäftigt. Über die Frage, ob das Fortbestehen religiöser Familienrechte ein Hindernis für die Demokratie und „nationale Einheit“ bzw. ganz allgemein für den „Fortschritt“ in Indien darstellt oder vielmehr als Garant für die Pluralität der indischen Gesellschaft zu sehen ist, kam es seit dem berühmten Fall Shah Bano Mitte der 1980er-Jahre immer wieder zu heftigen Kontroversen, die wesentlich zur Polarisierung der indischen Gesellschaft beigetragen haben.2 Je stärker die Zivilrechtsdebatte von den Vertretern eines hegemonialen Hindunationalismus auf der einen und den Repräsentanten eines islamischen Minderheitennationalismus auf der anderen Seite als politische Debatte vereinnahmt wurde, umso deutlicher verschärfte sich der Antagonismus zwischen der Hindumehrheitsgesellschaft und der muslimischen Minderheit. Entscheidenden Einfluss auf den Verlauf und die Virulenz der Debatte hatte und hat dabei nach wie vor die Art und Weise, wie sie von den indischen Medien – und hier insbesondere der englischsprachigen Presse – aufgegriffen und dargestellt wird. Entsprechend legt dieser Beitrag zunächst die Kernproblematik der indischen Zivilrechtsdebatte dar und erörtert im Anschluss daran die Frage, ob und in welche Richtung die englischsprachige Presse die Diskussion gegenwärtig zu steuern versucht bzw. inwieweit sie einer erneuten Verhärtung der Fronten vorzubeugen versucht.

Digital Cultural Communication: tools and methods for community co-creation

description: Only now are the communication technologies familiar to higher-end users becoming available to communities. When such technologies are married to traditional forms such as community narratives, they present an opportunity for communities to preserve their stories and distribute this knowledge to a wider audience. In some of the most remote parts of Australia, communities are partnering with cultural institutions to create digital cultural content. When communities create content in partnership with cultural institutions, both contribute to the sharing of cultural knowledge and distribution of this knowledge to a wider audience. In Queensland, a new initiative has created a mobile digital platform which travels into outlying areas of the community not just to capture and disseminate digital culture but to promote and train in new literacy. Livingstone (2003) suggests that the new literacy has limited value to communities if they cannot access technologies, nor have reason to. This paper introduces Digital Cultural Communication, an interaction design-derived Solutions Architecture which weds new literacy to multiplatform communication design by providing a cost-effective strategic infrastructure. Cultural institutions can supply training in new literacy for community co-creation and by promoting the end product, stimulate demand. Using an ambitious and exciting case study from Queensland’s cultural sector, this paper illustrates how communities can engage in the co-creation of content which both extends their digital literacy and strengthens their cultural identity. Further, by framing this case study within the domain of Digital Cultural Communication, the paper illustrates the advantages of partnerships between communities and cultural institutions in the capture, display and distribution of knowledge.
