description: Forced displacement drastically changes the nature of refugees’ connection to their home countries and requires them to build new ties to their host countries. While refugees undergo the dynamic transformation of their embeddedness after arriving in host countries, previous studies on refugee entrepreneurship have not sufficiently examined the dynamic and procedural nature of refugees’ embeddedness and its influence on their entrepreneurial activities. This study seeks to understand how the process of embedding influences refugees’ resource mobilization in their entrepreneurial activities. Based on 20 interviews with refugee entrepreneurs in Germany, this study revealed that forced detachment from home-country contexts led to a loss of certain resources while simultaneously creating opportunities for refugees to develop resources by building new connections. This study challenges the conventional structural deterministic approach of mixed embeddedness and theorizes disembedding and re-embedding processes of refugee entrepreneurs. The findings suggest that these processes require a cognitive process on the part of entrepreneurial agents to become aware of a loss of resources and to reinterpret the value of their resources. Furthermore, this paper discusses how these processes constrain and enable refugees’ access to resources. The findings offer implications for policymakers of refugee-hosting countries and refugee support organizations.
Holistic approach for analyzing the power spectrum of pulsating stars with PLATO

Subjects: subject: data analysis

subject: stellar evolution

description: Current harmonic analysis techniques applied to the high-quality space data of classical pulsators have yielded an unexpected distribution of modes in the observed frequency spectra. Furthermore, it has been shown recently (Balona, 2023) that the observed pulsation spectrum of delta Scuti stars is degenerate with respect to luminosity and effective temperature, raising concerns about the consistency of theoretical models for these stars.

 

In order to solve these challenges, we are developing new algorithms based on the smoothness and fractal properties of the signal to detect anomalies in the frequency analysis of pulsating stars. A pipeline for the analysis of the data that will be gathered by PLATO (ESA M3 mission) is in progress. In addition to data processing algorithms, the pipeline will include the characterization of the statistical properties through advanced analysis techniques to detect time-frequency variability of the signal, nonlinearities and complex dynamics. These tools will be essential pieces of a complete pipeline following a holistic approach to interpret the observed frequency spectrum of pulsating stars.

 

The aim is to achieve the most precise asteroseismic characterization of intermediate mass stars to date.
The injection of resources by transnational entrepreneurs: towards a model of the early evolution of an entrepreneurial ecosystem

subject: 330

description: Despite its rapid proliferation, the extant literature on entrepreneurial ecosystems has not paid considerable attention to the evolutionary nature of entrepreneurial ecosystems, mainly due to prevailing structuralist approaches in previous research. Particularly unclear is the early evolutionary context in which a region without rich entrepreneurial resources gains momentum and transforms into a nascent entrepreneurial ecosystem. The literature overlooks ecosystem dynamics in regions with limited entrepreneurial resources, as most studies have investigated more developed entrepreneurial ecosystems. This study illuminates one means to overcome resource scarcity on a regional level: resource injection by attracting transnational entrepreneurs, who transfer unique resources from one location to another. Based on an explorative qualitative study in the Santiago entrepreneurial ecosystem in Chile, where governmental actors incentivised transnational entrepreneurs to temporarily relocate to Santiago, this article proposes a three-step model of resource injection by transnational entrepreneurs with the following components: (i) stimulation of early ecosystem evolutionary momentum, (ii) evocation of institutional changes, and (iii) establishment of a resilient ecosystem. The findings offer practical implications for policymakers in emerging countries to utilise transnational entrepreneurs’ resources for developing an ecosystem in their region.

description: “All animals are comrades.” The sentence is to be found in a novel which, despite advertising itself in its subtitle as a “fairy story,” is commonly reckoned to the genre of political satire or allegory. The story, that is to say, intends something other than what it does say, tacitly inviting the reader to engage in a process of substitution at the end of which stands a different story, that of the Russian Revolution. While the blurb assures us that the novel is simple enough to be enjoyed on its own terms by children, we adults are capable of perceiving that it is a question here of human beings and not of animals. This anthropomorphic assumption subordinates animals to humans at the very moment it makes meaning of the proposition which incites them to revolt against their masters. For if the place of the animals in the better-known variant of that proposition, “all animals are equal” is to be usurped by human beings, then the conclusion is unavoidable that some animals – specifically, those who claim to have been granted dominion over every living thing that moves upon the earth – are more equal than others. By the end of the novel, one group of particularly intelligent animals has finally accepted this corollary; the others look on dumbly, unable to grasp the fact that they, too, are performing in the roles of human beings in disguise.

description: This paper deals with trafficked children in the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation in the long 18th century. As the Holy Roman Empire was geographically at the margins of the transatlantic slave trade and as the trade in children was not linked to the issues of slave labour and plantation economies that have been extensively addressed in the research on slavery, this phenomenon has often been overlooked. From a German perspective, however, children were not just one group among others to be “brought back” from the colonies; in fact, trafficking in children was a striking feature of human trafficking to the Holy Roman Empire. In this article I discuss the reasons for and dimensions of the phenomenon and analyse the consequences for the children affected.

description: It has often been noted that Judith Wright struggled with two opposing ideas: her love of the land on which she was raised, and her knowledge that her family’s ownership of that land was preceded by the dispossession of indigenous Australians. The presence of dualities in general is strong throughout all of Wright’s work – from her early “The Twins” to “Patterns,” the last of the ghazals. This duality in particular, however, is such a preoccupation in her work that, in some ways, it superimposed itself on Wright’s life, or rather the way Wright’s life has been represented. So, we have, on the one hand, Wright the celebrator of all things Australian. This Wright is the writer of “South of My Days” and “Bullocky,” the poet who was instrumental in forging the Australian poetic conception. This is the poet who is, in the words of Jennifer Strauss, an “Australian poetic institution.” On the other hand, we have Wright the activist, the campaigner. This is the Wright we see in poems like “Nigger’s Leap, New England,” and later, more overtly political poems like “Two Dreamtimes.”

description: There could be a very long version of this essay, but this will have to be the short version. Occasionally, there will be far too obvious indications of where a much longer, more argued version ought to take over. This version is a short cut. This last remark has to be said with a certain unabashedness because, really, a short cut is something impossible in such a large terrain. The questions I am asking are ones provoked by the almost automatic connection made between poetry and ecological issues, matters to do with the poem and matters of the environment and nature. Is there in fact any reason to make such a connection? Does poetry have any part in the current array of activities necessary to maintain the environment in the face of the new millennium’s pressures of urbanism, of technology, of poverty, of capitalism and population growth? Anyway, how much contemporary Australian poetry is ecological?

Only since the late 1930s has the lyric of place taken major literary form, first in poetry and more recently in a literature of place, often described as nature writing. The world rise of nature writing has now begun to take hold in Australia so offering an opportunity to look back and deepen our understanding of times marked by its absence.

description: There exists the misconception that rejecting strong anthropocentrism or human-centeredness equates with denying or rejecting the special nature of human-human relationship. Drawing attention to and calling for care towards nonhumans does not disadvantage humans. An ecocentric ethics promotes an ethics of care that is inclusive of all life, human and nonhuman, whereby the kinship and welfare of humans are neither diminished nor neglected. All life benefits from an ecocentric approach. An ecophilosophical perspective needs to be a foundational element for the theory and practice of human rights. Although I will be discussing human rights specifically, we should keep in mind that the ecophilosophical basis to human rights that will be introduced advocates for the rights of all life, not only human life. Indeed, the subject of nonhuman rights will be understood as integral to human rights, and a necessary consideration within any honest effort to understand and help resolve situations characterized by extreme violations of human rights, in particular military conflict and terrorism.

description: The ecophilosophical project is driven by the conviction that the endemic environmental problems that presently confront us have not been caused by mere human carelessness, but are the direct consequence of certain beliefs and assumptions being deeply entrenched in dominant Western discourse. Ecophilosophers maintain that due to a culturally legitimated faith in the validity of oppressive and destructive ideologies, humanity has seen fit to engage in systemically oppressive and destructive activities that have resulted in the current global crisis. Accordingly, ecophilosophers have sought to expose the flaws inherent in ecologically destructive ideologies and to envision models of thinking conducive to humanity's continued existence in a more-than-human world.
O decreto de 1059 sobre a eleição do papa
Creators: name: Marcolino, Venício
Publisher: name: Didaskalia
Year: 1976

description: The decree on papal elections published in 1059 A. D. is a document of the first fase of the «gregorian reform», and should be interpreted as such. In it are condensed tendencies and ideas which had been gradually developing, specially those which advocated a reform of the Church at all levels, a reduction of secular influence and freedom in the election to ecclesiastical office. Doubtless the decree represents the thinking of those leading figures in the roman curia who, ever since Leo IX's pontificate, had been favouring reform. As a synodal document, however, it is not the product of any single author or of any particular group. Rather it represents a general consensus of the main currents of opinion, obtained during the synodal discussions and in talks held by Nicholas II with important personages of the time, as the signatures appended clearly indicate. The final draft appears to be a compromise between the radical and moderate factions, represented respectively by Humberto da Silva Candida and Pedro Damiani, both of whom probably collaborated in drawing up the text.

description: DNA methylation changes contribute to bladder carcinogenesis. Trihalomethanes (THM), a class of disinfection by-products, are associated with increased urothelial bladder cancer (UBC) risk. THM exposure in animal models produces DNA hypomethylation. We evaluated the relationship of LINE-1 5-methylcytosine levels (LINE-1%5mC) as outcome of long-term THM exposure among controls and as an effect modifier in the association between THM exposure and UBC risk. We used a case-control study of UBC conducted in Spain. We obtained personal lifetime residential THM levels and measured LINE-1%5mC by pyrosequencing in granulocyte DNA from blood samples in 548 incident cases and 559 hospital controls. Two LINE-1%5mC clusters (above and below 64%) were identified through unsupervised hierarchical cluster analysis. The association between THM levels and LINE-1%5mC was evaluated with β regression analyses and logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (OR) adjusting for covariables. LINE-1%5mC change between percentiles 75th and 25th of THM levels was 1.8% (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.1, 3.4%) among controls. THM levels above vs. below the median (26 μg/L) were associated with increased UBC risk, OR = 1.86 (95% CI: 1.25, 2.75), overall and among subjects with low levels of LINE-1%5mC (n = 975), OR = 2.14 (95% CI: 1.39, 3.30), but not associated with UBC risk among subjects’ high levels of LINE-1%5mC (n = 162), interaction P = 0.03. Results suggest a positive association between LINE-1%5mC and THM levels among controls, and LINE-1%5mC status may modify the association between UBC risk and THM exposure. Because reverse causation and chance cannot be ruled out, confirmation studies are warranted.

description: Plusieurs techniques de traitement ont jusqu’ici été appliquées aux sédiments en vue de l’amélioration de certaines propriétés physico-chimiques. Le traitement thermique par calcination s’est montré efficace dans l‘élimination de la fraction organique ainsi que l’amélioration de propriétés de pouzzolanicité. Dans cet article, il est mis en évidence l’effet du traitement thermique optimisé des sédiments marins, sur les propriétés physico-mécaniques et environnementales des mortiers. En effet, la substitution optimale d’une fraction du ciment par des sédiments calcinés à 750°C permet de maintenir, voire d’améliorer, les propriétés mécaniques de la matrice cimentaire en comparaison avec un mortier de référence normalisé. L’incorporation des sédiments calcinés jusqu’à 20% de substitution du ciment n’altère pas la durabilité dumatériau, d’ailleurs à 10% de substitution du ciment, les sédiments améliorent le comportement mécanique et environnemental. D’un point de vue environnemental, les mortiers formulés contenant des sédiments calcinés sont considérés inertes au vu du référentiel des installations de stockage des déchets inertes (ISDI-France).

description: The brief and remarkable introduction to this collection of essays, speaks eloquently for the publication as a whole. Its intention is to disabuse scholars of the notion that ecocriticism as a critical theory and methodology is limited because of its focus on what normatively is considered to exist outside of the realm of language or textuality, that "dry and intolerable chitinous murmur" of terrestrial allusions, as Jameson puts it; a focus which discredits the discipline as a proper participant within poststructuralist theory and its arenas of politically enfranchising "social constructivism" and "linguistic determinism" (10). The collection treats the figure of nature as at once "material phenomenon and aesthetically charged category" (13), and ecocriticism, having caught up in the twenty-first century with the established theories of structuralism, new historicism, feminism, psychoanalytic criticism, and postcolonialism, as a methodology that "re-examines the history of ideologically, aesthetically, and ethically motivated conceptualisations of nature, of the function of its constructions and metaphorisations in literary and other cultural practices, and of the potential effects these discursive, imaginative constructions have on our bodies as well as our natural and cultural environments" (10). These remarks are welcome to scholars famished for writing within a field that contributor Louise Westling states, in the first essay in the collection, is still undertheorized (26). Herbert Zapf, another contributor to the collection, notes theory itself as this refers to the late hallmark of poststructuralism is partly to blame for the lacuna. Until recently, during the period when poststructuralism emerged as a dominant critical practice, writing that addressed the physical world as a figure equal to the human in either or both its material and non-material effects was considered "politically questionable and epistemologically naive in the pansemiotic universe of poststructuralism" (50). The collection contributes to dispelling this condescension. They are exemplary, respecting nature and language, not as disparate and antithetical figures but, analogous to Marianne Moore's "real toads with imaginary gardens," as richly intertwined.

description: As apologias desapareceram todas da liturgia actual, e ninguém pensa em ressuscitá-las, como ninguém pensa em voltar ao passado. Elas são o símbolo duma época e o reflexo de certa corrente de espiritualidade. Contêm todavia uma lição que nos parece ainda actual: do ponto de vista eucológico e literário, a simplicidade e a inspiração bíblica, que caracterizam toda a eucologia medieval; do ponto de vista espiritual, a humildade, a consciência nítida do pecado e da fragilidade humana, de par com uma total confiança na misericórdia de Deus.

description: Il y a donc deux résurrections des hommes. La première, qui débute ici-bas par le baptême vécu dans la foi, est progressive, elle se réalise de plus en plus à mesure de l'ascension spirituelle et morale. La deuxième, qui coïncide avec la fin des temps, la venue du Christ dans la gloire, est parfaite et totale. Elle se produira «en un instant, en un clin d'oeil» comme le jugement final qui ne fait qu'un avec elle. De l'une à l'autre dans un sens il y a passage, dans un autre sens il n'y a pas passage, mais une réalité toute nouvelle. Ici-bas le parfait ne jouit que d'une perfection relative: comparé à la perfection totale vers laquelle il tend il semble un petit enfant par rapport à un adulte, ou même un animal devant un homme raisonnable. Les textes origéniens qui disent cela ne manquent pas.

Pontifical de Braga do século XII
Creators: name: Bragança, Joaquim De Oliveira
Publisher: name: Didaskalia
Year: 1977

description: Edition partielle, en attendant l' édition intégrale, du manuscrit 1134 de la Bibliothèque Municipale de Porto, daté du dernier quart du XIIe siècle. Ce pontifical fut écrit pour l'archevêque de Braga, comme il ressort de l'invocation des trois saints locaux, St-Martin, St-Fructueux et St-Géraud, ainsi que de la mention explicite du siège de Braga dans le rituel du sacre de l'évêque. Bien plus, il est la source la plus ancienne du rituel de bénédiction des cierges et des rameaux, de même que l'archétype du Pontifical de Braga du XVe siècle (Braga, Bibl. Mun. ms. 870). Le prototype est venu de France. Il suffit de jeter un coup d'oeil sur les litanies pour s'en rendre compte. Mais lorsqu'on cherche à préciser le scriptorium où ce prototype a été organisé, la tâche devient plus hasardée. L'ensemble des litanies aussi bien que d'autres indices nous amènent au Midi de la France, voire à Toulouse, eu égard à la place de St-Satumin dans trois litanies, immédiatement après le premier martyr, St-Etienne. Il est cependant des pièces qui se réfèrent à la Normandie, telle la prière Omnipotens clementissime Pater, dont les témoins sont tous normands, exception faite d'un missel de St-Maur-les-Fossés. Peut-être s'agit-il d'un document fabriqué dans une abbaye du Midi ayant des rapports culturels et spirituels très étroits avec les milieux monastiques normands. De par sa structure et l'originalité de ses rites ce manuscrit tient une position de choix parmi les pontificaux portugais, ainsi que dans l'histoire générale du pontifical en Occident. Pour ne poser qu'un exemple, signalons les cérémonies du mandatum au Jeudi-Saint.

Leão Hebreu e o sentido do amor universal
Creators: name: Moura, José Barata
Publisher: name: Didaskalia
Year: 1972

description: Le présent article, «Léon l'Hébreu et le sens de l'amour universel», se propose de souligner le rôle joué par l'amour, chez Jehudah Abrahanel, comme lien universel qui, traversant le réel, accompli l'unification de ses différentes régions. Le plan ontologique sur lequel la question se pose et se déroule nous a obligé à examiner de plus près les rapports entre l'être et l'amour. Cette démarche nous a conduit à l'étude de la production de l'être dans l'intention d'y déceler le noyau de l'amour, d'où sa signification profonde émane: le don, moment premier et créateur, indice de fécondité et de plénitude. Nous avions dû auparavant préciser la pensée de l'auteur pour savoir en effet s'il s'agissait d'un processus de génération ou vraiment d'une création. L'examen du sens de la matière est apparu alors comme indispensable. Dans le cadre des schémas néoplatoniciens de la procession et du retour et de la participation, l'amour s'est révélé comme le sujet d'un important rôle métaphysique: celui d'établir le champ unitaire et radical sur lequel tous les êtres reposent, c'est-à-dire le fond sur lequel se dressent les différentes déterminations par lesquelles le multiple s'affirme et se révèle. Léon l'Hébreu — Jehudah Abrahanel—, né à Lisbonne entre 1460 et 1465, et l'un des principaux représentants de la littérature d'amour de la Renaissance. Ses Dialoghi d'amore, publiés à Rome pour la première fois en 1535, ont connu de nombreuses éditions et traductions, ayant été l'un des textes fondamentaux de la culture européenne du XVIème siècle.

description: The emergence of environmental criticism in recent decades stems from "very ancient roots." While acknowledging that reflection about the material world has a long history based in early cosmologies and intellectual concerns, Lawrence Buell's book aims to assess what is new in the relationship between writing and the environment, how such critical and creative engagement is relevant to life on earth today, and the potential for environmental criticism to develop much needed interdisciplinary perceptions and values for an endangered earth.

description: Three heterotopic ligands L1, L2, and L3 have been prepared by the reaction of 4,4′-bis(bromomethyl)-2,2′-bipyridine with 4,5-diazafluoren-9-oxime, 9-(2-hydroxy)phenylimino-4,5-diazafluorene, and 9-(4-hydroxy)phenylimino-4,5-diazafluorene, respectively, in DMF. The three ligands consist of two 4,5-diazafluorene units and one 2,2′-bipyridine unit. Ru(II) complexes [{Ru(bpy)2}3(μ3-L1−3)](PF6)6 (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) were prepared by refluxing Ru(bpy)2Cl2·2H2O and the ligands in 2-methoxyethanol. The three Ru(II) complexes display metal-to-ligand charge-transfer absorption at 445–450 nm and one Ru(II)-centered oxidation at 1.32 V in CH3CN solution at room temperature. Upon excitation into the metal-to-ligand charge-transfer band, the emission intensities of [{Ru(bpy)2}3(μ3-L2)]6+ and [{Ru(bpy)2}3(μ3-L3)]6+ are almost equal to that of [{Ru(bpy)2}3(μ3-L1)]6+ in CH3CN solution at room temperature, but weaker than that of [{Ru(bpy)2}3(μ3-L1)]6+ in EtOH–MeOH (4 : 1, v/v) glassy matrix at 77 K.

description: Plant guttation is a fluid from xylem and phloem sap secreted at the margins of leaves from many plant species. All previous studies have considered guttation as a water source for insects. Here, we hypothesized that plant guttation serves as a reliable and nutrient-rich food source for insects with effects on their communities. Using highbush blueberries as a study system, we demonstrate that guttation droplets contain carbohydrates and proteins. Insects from three feeding lifestyles, an herbivore, a parasitic wasp and a predator, increased their longevity and fecundity when fed on these guttation droplets compared to those fed on control water. Our results also show that guttation droplets, unlike nectar, are present on leaves during the entire growing season and are visited by numerous insects of different orders. In exclusion-field experiments, the presence of guttation modified the insect community by increasing the number of predators and parasitic wasps that visited the plants. Overall, our results demonstrate that plant guttation is highly reliable, compared to other plant-derived food sources such as nectar, and that it increases the communities and fitness of insects. Therefore, guttation represents an important plant trait with profound implications on multi-trophic insect–plant interactions.

description: This article considers a periodic-review inventory problem with two suppliers. The regular supplier has a longer lead time than the expedited supplier but has a lower unit cost. The structural properties of the optimal orders are characterized using the notion of L♮-convexity. Interestingly, the optimal regular order is more sensitive to the late-to-arrive outstanding orders, but the optimal expedited order is more sensitive to the soon-to-arrive outstanding orders. A heuristic policy is designed that provides an average cost saving of 1.02% over the best heuristic policy in the literature.
