Annotation:

Colin Koopman’s Pragmatism as Transition offers an argumentative retelling of the history of American pragmatism in terms of the tradition’s preoccupation with time. Taking time seriously offers a venue for reorienting pragmatism today as a practice of cultural critique. This article examines the political implications third wave pragmatism’s conceptualization of time, practice, and critique. I argue that Koopman’s book opens up possible lines of inquiry into historical practices of critique from William James to James Baldwin that, when followed through to their conclusion, trouble some of the book’s political conclusions. Taking time and practice seriously, as transitionalism invites pragmatists to do, demands pluralizing critique in a way that puts pressure on familiar pragmatist convictions concerning liberalism, progress, and American exceptionalism.

In recent decades, the distribution of New England cottontails (Sylvilagus transitionalis) has declined substantially in response to forest maturation and fragmentation. Populations of eastern cottontails (Sylvilagus floridanus) have expanded into the range of S. transitionalis, since they are apparently less affected by the consequences of habitat modifications. We suspected that S. floridanus was able to exploit small patches of habitat where S. transitionalis was vulnerable to intense predation and we evaluated this explanation using large enclosures within which we manipulated the quality and distribution of food in relation to escape cover. In trials with low-quality food in cover and high-quality food in open areas, S. transitionalis sacrificed food quality for safety by remaining in close proximity to cover. Sylvilagus floridanus avoided low-quality food in cover and foraged at sites containing high-quality food away from cover. When food was removed from cover, S. transitionalis was reluctant to forage in the open and lost a greater proportion of body mass and succumbed to higher rates of predation than did S. floridanus. We applied these results to patterns of foraging by free-ranging rabbits in a fragmented landscape and estimated that S. transitionalis could successfully exploit only 32% of the available habitat without experiencing elevated rates of predation, whereas S. floridanus could exploit 99% of the habitat. Thus, the consequences of habitat fragmentation (especially higher predation risk) may not be as detrimental to S. floridanus, and this species will likely persist, whereas populations of S. transitionalis will continue to decline.

Annotation:

We compared the variation in mitochondrial DNA among species of cottontail rabbits in the northeastern United States to (i) assess the effects of historic transplants of eastern cottontails (Sylvilagus floridanus) on subspecific status, (ii) examine the extent of hybridization between invading eastern cottontails and declining populations of endemic New England cottontails (S. transitionalis), and (iii) evaluate the recent reclassification of S. transitionalis into two sister-species, New England cottontail and Appalachian cottontail (S. obscurus). Sequence variation in the tRNAPro and the first 310 base pairs of the control region supported a separation of the two species S. floridanus and S. transitionalis/S. obscurus. However, geographic structuring of haplotypes was not detected for either group. Genetic similarity among populations of S. floridanus indicated that subspecific designations are not warranted for this species in the northeastern United States. Comparisons of sequence information from populations of S. transitionalis/S. obscurus that were never sympatric (Maine), recently sympatric (New Hampshire), or sympatric with eastern cottontails since the last glaciation of eastern North America (Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina) indicated that hybridization is not occurring between eastern cottontails and New England or Appalachian cottontails. Limited variation in mitochondrial DNA does not support the recent reclassification of S. transitionalis into sister-species. However, karyotypic and morphological differences between northern and southern populations should be considered during any efforts to restore declining populations of this species.

This article examines Sandra Kogut’s The Hungarian Passport (2001) in the light of recent theoretical debates on diasporic and postcolonial filmmaking. It focuses on how Kogut’s displacement—both as the granddaughter of Jewish refugees and a foreigner in France—permeates the structure of the documentary in terms of narrative, visual style, subject matter and theme. In the process, the article addresses questions of transnational cinema in a postcolonial and diasporic context by exploring how the film’s transnational representations interrogate the validity of both national cinema and cultural identity as fixed concepts in contemporary Europe.

Annotation:

Variation in reproductive parameters of Plectropomus leopardus populations between coral reefs open and closed to fishing was examined in two geographic regions (off Townsville (19°S) and in the Swains (22°S)) of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. The reproductive parameters that were examined included the operational (reproductive) sex ratio and size and age structure of mature females, sex-changing individuals (transitionals), and mature males. There was a greater proportion of males above the minimum size and age of harvest on reefs closed to fishing for 8-10 years than on reefs open to fishing, although the effect varied with geographic region. Nevertheless, neither the sex ratio, mean age, nor mean size of males or transitionals varied significantly with reef closure status. Females, however, were significantly older and larger on closed than on open reefs in both regions. Marked regional variations in the sex ratio and average age of transitionals were found independent of reef closure status, suggesting regional variation in reproductive strategies. Controlled manipulations, inclusion of broad spatial scales, and detailed studies of intra- and inter-specific variation in serranid reproductive biology are necessary to resolve such complexities in the responses of protogynous serranids to fishing pressure and management strategies.

Annotation:

The article offers an overview of the content of the present issue of the „Tekstualia” and problematizes the issue of hybridity in literature and other arts by looking at phenomena such as hybridization as a mechanism of constructing new esthetic and ontological models or as a key to understanding heterogenic origins and features of literature and other arts. More specifi c problems under discussion include: experimentation, para-texts, amorphousness in art, genres in-between, intertextuality, interactivity. Hybridity in art raises a range of ontological, epistemological, and axiological questions that pertain to predominant cultural models across time. Hybrids are artistic phenomena that escape classifi cation, and they play an important role in cultural dynamics because they shape new sensitivities, they also play an important part in culture (especially modern and postmodern), because they require their own description and language.

Annotation:

This article critically examines the notion of teacher agency in light of two important conceptual frameworks: technologies of the self and transitionalist-actionistic, or conduct pragmatism. Using the former framework, teacher agency was analyzed in terms of its inherent status and dynamic flux within one’s self, while using the latter it was scrutinized for its transitional-actionistic nature triggered by one’s action or conduct. The article then argues that viewing teacher agency from these two vantage points can contribute to our understanding of the crucial role a teacher can play in creating a micro-centric policy of teaching and learning English in a specific locality, as well as of the enactment of this policy by individual teachers in a classroom setting. Implications for this critical examination of teacher agency include the import of the (re)activation of teacher agency, and its enactment both in the policy-making processes and in the teaching practices.

This article explores the scope of small-scale radio to create an auditory geography of place. It focuses on the short-term art radio project The Stadium Broadcast, which was staged in November 2014 in an earthquake-damaged sports stadium in Christchurch, New Zealand. Thousands of buildings and homes in Christchurch have been demolished since the February 22, 2011, earthquake, and by the time of the broadcast the stadium at Lancaster Park had been unused for three years and nine months, and its future was uncertain. The Stadium Broadcast constructed a radio memorial to the Park’s 130-year history through archival recordings, the memories of local people, observation of its current state, and a performed site-specificity. The Stadium Broadcast reflected on the spatiality of radio sounds and transmissions, memory, postdisaster transitionality, and the impermanence of place.

Abstract In this research I aim to contribute to a better understanding of transitionality in poetic language by applying for the first time the hypotheses recently developed by pioneers in the emerging field of cognitive poetics to a living tradition. The benefits of working with a living tradition are tremendous: it is easy to establish the literacy level of the authors and the mode of recording of poetic text is also easy to elicit or, when necessary, to control. I chose a living poetic tradition originating from the Jbala (Morocco). Although it is not epic and local poets create only relatively short poetic texts, memorisation is also used; it has been demonstrated that oral improvisation and the use of memory are not mutually exclusive. This suggests that research on the living Jebli tradition holds promise for our understanding of oral poetry, and for revisiting the intriguing question of formulaic language.

Annotation:

Modernity, or the combination of market economy, liberal democratic polity and a society driven by technological progress, we are led to believe, is the end-state of history; the glorious condition of a fully enlightened society of free citizens equipped with equal rights at which all traditional societies are bound to arrive, after a period of transition which might involve some temporary difficulties or ‘sacrifices’. However, and in contrast to this, modernity rather involves an infinite period of transition, in which the stable elements of social life, representing not just rigid external constraints on individual freedom, but also the condition of possibility of meaningful life, are one by one liquidated. This article argues that the anthropological concept ‘liminality’ is particularly helpful in understanding the formative aspects of transition experiences, like the Celtic Tiger phenomenon in Ireland. It also helps to move beyond the conventional ‘transition to modernity’ framework by pointing out that advanced modernity is identical to a permanent state of transitionality.

The study investigated the effects of sociocultural change on variables related to adolescents' self concepts (i.e., perceptions and expected reputations of adolescents and adults; real and ideal self; social maturity). Traditional and transitional adolescents (both sexes, 13-18 years) from two cities in North India (Ns = 632, 625) completed Indian adaptations of Hess and Goldblatts' Rating Scales, Worchel's Self Activity Inventory, the CPI So Scale and a Socioeconomic (SE) Scale. ANOVAs were used to test the effects of culture, sex, age and SE status on attitudes to adolescents and adults, real and ideal selves, and social maturity. Adolescents who viewed adults more favorably (transitionals and females in contrast to traditionals and males respectively) showed more favorable ideal selves and more social maturity. Control for SE level did not attenuate significant culture effects. The results suggest the powerful influence of macrostructural variables (like sociocultural change) on adolescent attitudes towards themselves and others.

Annotation:

In fragmented habitat, population persistence depends in part on patch quality and patch size relative to home-range size. The imperiled New England cottontail (Sylvilagus transitionalis (Bangs, 1895)) is an obligate user of shrublands in the northeastern United States, a highly fragmented and declining ecosystem. New England cottontail conservation efforts have targeted habitat creation; however, efforts are hindered by a limited knowledge of seasonal space use and its relationship to habitat quality, which could help inform minimum patch-size requirements and implications of competition with non-native eastern cottontails (Sylvilagus floridanus (J.A. Allen, 1890)). To address these uncertainties, we modeled home-range areas for both species as a function of season, patch size, sex, and two indicators of forage and cover availability. Home range was generally inversely correlated with measures of forage and cover resources and the response differed by season and species and did not vary with patch size. Instead, inclusion of matrix habitat within home ranges increased with decreasing patch size, placing individuals within smaller patches at a high risk of mortality. These risks may be mitigated in patches >7 ha and absent in patches >20–25 ha where predicted inclusion of matrix is lower or absent.

Annotation:

Context Designing effective long-term monitoring strategies is essential for managing wildlife populations. Implementing a cost-effective, practical monitoring program is especially challenging for widespread but locally rare species. Early successional habitat preferred by the New England cottontail (NEC) has become increasingly rare and fragmented, resulting in substantial declines from their peak distribution in the mid-1900s. The introduction of a possible competitor species, the eastern cottontail (EC), may also have played a role. Uncertainty surrounding how these factors have contributed to NEC declines has complicated management and necessitated development of an appropriate monitoring framework to understand possible drivers of distribution and dynamics. Aims Because estimating species abundance is costly, we designed presence–absence surveys to estimate species distributions, test assumptions about competitive interactions, and improve understanding of demographic processes for eastern cottontails (EC) and New England cottontails (NEC). The survey protocol aimed to balance long-term management objectives with practical considerations associated with monitoring a widespread but uncommon species. Modelling data arising from these observations allow for estimation of covariate relationships between species status and environmental conditions including habitat and competition. The framework also allows inference about species status at unsurveyed locations. Methods We designed a monitoring protocol to collect data across six north-eastern USA states and, using data collected from the first year of monitoring, fit a suite of single-season occupancy models to assess how abiotic and biotic factors influence NEC occurrence, correcting for imperfect detectability. Key results Models did not provide substantial support for competitive interactions between EC and NEC. NEC occurrence patterns appear to be influenced by several remotely sensed habitat covariates (land-cover classes), a habitat-suitability index, and, to a lesser degree, plot-level habitat covariates (understorey density and canopy cover). Conclusions We recommend continuing presence–absence monitoring and the development of dynamic occupancy models to provide further evidence regarding hypotheses of competitive interactions and habitat influences on the underlying dynamics of NEC occupancy. Implications State and federal agencies responsible for conserving this and other threatened species can engage with researchers in thoughtful discussions, based on management objectives, regarding appropriate monitoring design to ensure that the allocation of monitoring efforts provides useful inference on population drivers to inform management intervention.

We investigated the distribution and habitat associations of New England cottontails (Sylvilagus transitionalis; NEC) at the northern edge of their historic range (state of Maine) during the winters of 19992000 and 20002001. We compared features of regions ([Formula: see text]100 km2), landscapes (multiple home ranges of NEC within 1 km of suitable habitat), and patches (usually <0.1 km2) among sites that were occupied by NEC, occupied by a potential competitor (snowshoe hares, Lepus americanus), or vacant. The current range of NEC in Maine is approximately 1600 km2 versus a recent historic range of 9400 km2 (83% decline). Loss of early-successional forests may explain the decline in abundance but does not explain the pattern of range contraction. Patches occupied by NEC were larger, had a greater density of understory vegetation, and were more frequently associated with idle agricultural lands than vacant patches. Habitats occupied by snowshoe hares were characterized by a greater proportion of forest and a lower density of roads in the surrounding landscape, were more often associated with recent clearcuts, and had a lower density of understory vegetation than sites occupied by NEC. Based on current land-use patterns, remaining populations of NEC in Maine are vulnerable to extirpation.

Annotation:

We examined habitat features at several spatial scales that were associated with predation of New England cottontails (Sylvilagus transitionalis) by mammalian carnivores. The fate (killed or survived) of marked cottontails was compared with the characteristics of the habitat patch they occupied and composition of the surrounding landscape. The perimeter-to-area ratio of an occupied patch, the amount of disturbed habitat within 0.5 km of a patch, and the amount of coniferous forest within 1 km of a patch were greater for killed rabbits than for those that survived. The amount of water within 1 km and an index of landscape evenness were greater for rabbits that survived. Habitat features in the vicinity of patches occupied by cottontails apparently influenced the distribution and movements of carnivores. Characteristics of patches likely influenced rabbit exposure and predator success. We propose that predation of cottontails was a multiscaled process. Landscape composition (ca. 250 km2) influenced the relative abundance of predators. The distribution of predators within a landscape was a function of the distribution of life requisites (multiple patches, ca. 250 ha). Predators then selected a patch in which to forage on the basis of its relative productivity compared with adjacent patches. Finally, once a predator entered a patch, the vulnerability of a resident cottontail was dependent on the site (ca. 250 m2) occupied by the rabbit. This hierarchical approach may help resolve the current debate on the risk of predation in fragmented landscapes.

Human land uses have resulted in landscape mosaics with habitat patches that vary in quality. Patch quality (including the abundance of food and the risk of predation) can affect the survival of animals that are sequestered in remnant patches of habitat. Recent investigations of the demography of New England cottontails (Sylvilagus transitionalis) have shown that cottontails on small (resource poor) patches were in poor physical condition (based on body mass) and often foraged at sites with limited cover. This resulted in a higher mortality rate than among rabbits occupying large (resource rich) patches. To gain additional insight into the consequences of habitat fragmentation, we tracked the physiological condition of rabbits occupying small and large patches during winter. The physiological condition of rabbits was determined using the urinary urea nitrogen:creatinine ratio, and the results were compared with similar indices obtained from captive rabbits. Consistent with our expectations, the nitrogen:creatinine ratios indicated that rabbits on small patches were nutrient limited for a longer period than rabbits on large patches. Transmitter-equipped rabbits on small patches had a lower survival rate and died earlier than rabbits on large patches. All mortalities were predator related. Using these data, we developed a simple model that supports the role of "condition-sensitive predation" as a major factor limiting populations of New England cottontails. Our results also demonstrate the utility of sampling physiological condition to provide an index of quality of lagomorph habitat in human-dominated landscapes.

Abstract The New England cottontail (NEC) Sylvilagus transitionalis is strongly associated with shrubland and early successional habitat and is the only cottontail native to the U.S. Northeast. The distribution and abundance of young forest habitat and NEC populations have declined. The eastern cottontail (EC) Sylvilagus floridanus was introduced into the U.S. Northeast in the early 1900s and uses similar habitat as NEC, but is expanding in distribution and abundance. Little information exists on spatial use, survival, and competition in sympatric populations of NEC and EC. Understanding differences in population demographics may identify important factors or relationships influencing population trends and aid in developing effective management strategies. Our objectives were to quantify home range and core area sizes, annual survival rates, minimum population densities, and range overlap for sympatric populations of NEC and EC at four sites in Connecticut. We monitored spatial use and survival rates of 107 radio-collared rabbits over a 10-y period. Mean annual home ranges and core areas were 10.9 and 2.5 ha for NEC and 5.6 and 1.6 ha for EC. Overlap in home range and core areas was greater within species than between species (NEC-EC). For both species and sex, home range size expanded from winter to breeding seasons. Survival rates were greater for NEC than for EC at all four sites, with predation as the major cause of mortality for both species. Space-use patterns suggest that the potential for EC to interfere with NEC reproduction is limited and avoidance or resource partitioning between species in the same patch may be occurring.

Gag grouper Mycteroperca microlepis are protogynous hermaphrodites, for which the assumption of female-driven reproductive potential may be inaccurate. In protogynous species, male abundance, fertilization success, and stock productivity are affected by where and when sex change occurs and how fishing pressure affects male recruitment and survivorship. In this study, we integrated large spatial-scale data with high-resolution data from a 3 yr study sampling gag at deep-water sites with varying spatial management (a marine protected area [MPA], a seasonally closed area, and an 'Open area'). Gag exhibited complex spatial ecology; females formed pre-spawning aggregations before migrating to deep-water spawning sites, which overlapped with locations where males were sampled year-round. The observed male sex ratio in the MPA was 5% compared to the expected 15%. It was 0% in less protected areas. Sex change occurred occasionally in small fish and before, during, and after the spawning season. In addition, sex change was observed in pre-spawning female-only aggregations as well on the spawning grounds, indicating that male social cues are not requisite. We propose that shallow-water, pre-spawning aggregations are a key spatio-temporal bottleneck to gag productivity. They appear to be an important source of transitionals and are heavily fished, which may negatively impact male recruitment to the spawning grounds. Our results indicate that overall gag abundance is low, MPAs do not protect all recruiting males (as previously assumed), and current regulations are not sufficient for the male population to recover to historic levels (~17% male).

In the past seven years, student-led decolonisation movements have taken root in UK universities. Decolonising the university is an intellectual project, asking critical questions about the content of curricula, disciplinary canons and pedagogical approaches. It is simultaneously a material one, challenging the colonial legacies that manifest in institutional spaces, cultures and financial decisions, students’ experience and staff labour conditions (Cotton, 2018, p. 24). Academic libraries have recognised their role in addressing how ‘coloniality survives colonialism’ (Maldonado-Torres, 2007, p. 243), in particular through the diversification of collections and resources. However, libraries have neglected to interrogate their educational potential for decolonisation, specifically in exercising information literacy (IL) teaching and approaches. This qualitative research examines IL through a decolonial lens with an eye to both its colonial attributes and its potential for decolonising the curriculum. Interviews with five academic researchers are used to explore the potential for critical information literacy (CIL) in decolonial work and ask what IL might look like from a decolonial perspective. The findings of the interviews are structured according to Icaza and Vázquez’s framework of three core processes for decolonising the university; they reveal that CIL might usefully facilitate positionality, practice relationality and consider transitionality. In turn, these findings lead to a set of recommendations for unsettling IL and generating the potential for decolonisation. The relationship between CIL and decolonising the curriculum is as yet unexplored and academics’ engagement with and opinions on CIL have rarely been examined. This research therefore offers some novel contributions for IL practitioners and researchers in relation to both teaching/ learning and research. It also contributes some points of departure for a more a powerful and holistic decolonial pedagogy in the university. A more fitting approach than traditional IL, critical information literacy can become a key part of scaffolding a decolonising approach to learners’ navigation of information and processes of knowing.

We argued that visual images also form an integral part of the interlanguage system. Next, introducing a novel approach to examining the universality of interlanguage from a quantitative perspective, using a folktale as material, we analyzed the illustrations drawn by learners as continuous-type distribution data, based on the average evaluation scores of native Japanese speakers. We concluded that learners’ images evolve similarly to linguistic items and approach the target language incrementally, with each stage intermingled with common features.</p> <p> </p>

ZusammenfassungNach der Systemtheorie kennt das Recht keinen Anfang. Es beginnt in der Mitte. Diese Paradoxie wird in der Sozialpraxis entweder durch einen im System selbst gefertigten Mythos oder durch die Einführung neuer Unterscheidungen invisibilisiert. In Fällen von „historisch gegebenem“ Recht wird auf diesem Weg die Paralyse des Systems vermieden. Anders verhält es sich in Fällen, da Recht in sozialer Anomie operiert, z.B. im Fall von Recht, das in transitionalen Regimes nach Kriegen, Revolutionen, Staatsstreichen usw. angewendet wird (sog. transitionales Recht). Der Beitrag versucht, den Gedanken der Ursprungsparadoxie des Rechts mit Derridas „Denkfigur“ des supplément weiter zu entfalten und knüpft zu diesem Zweck an die Rechtssoziologie Luhmanns an, die die Funktion des Rechts in der Erwartungsstabilisierung sieht. Versteht man Erwartungen als supplément des Rechts, entsteht die Möglichkeit, ein viel komplexeres Verständnis vom Rechtsursprung zu entwickeln. Mit einem solchen Ursprungsverständnis wird es möglich, transitionales Recht rechtssoziologisch zu analysieren, was am Beispiel des Straftatbestandes des Verbrechens gegen die Menschlichkeit in Nürnberg veranschaulicht wird.

The common bond linking feminist theories of identity politics and process ontologies is that, while differing in their ontological presuppositions, both are modes of representation of an external reality, asserting an unverifiable correspondence between our mental representations and an antecedent, external reality. To escape the quagmire of representationalism, Ihnji Jon turns to transitionalist pragmatism in a radical move that redirects attention from intellectual debates between contending theorists to charting a route to practical reconstruction. Jon's pragmatist turn transcends enduring dualisms that have hampered knowledge production since the Greeks while posing daunting challenges to the purpose and process of political practice and social inquiry.

Annotation:

The dominant analytical and programmatic frameworks used when writing about conflict-affected contexts such as Libya in Global Northern academia belong to the interdisciplinary field of peace and conflict studies (PACS). Within this, education is increasingly gaining attention as a tool for building peace and developing social justice. This article is a cautious conceptual exploration of how pragmatism might be a timely intervention in the fields of PACS and peacebuilding education. In particular, the article takes a deeper look at the American philosopher John Dewey’s pragmatist approach to politics and education, and his conceptualisations of a context-specific ‘public’, teachers and enquiry for peaceful and democratic living. Throughout, I argue that a pragmatist philosophy is a worthwhile pedagogical project in a challenging context such as Libya, as it is an internal and ground-up discourse, compared to the often externally initiated and top-down discourses of peacebuilding. I speak as an adjacent and connected critic, because I am both a Libyan and a German researching a problem in my country to which I hope to find possible solutions by engaging with discourses and practices in an academic institution in the Global North.

Ongoing declines in the imperiled New England cottontail Sylvilagus transitionalis have coincided with the introduction and expansion of the closely related eastern cottontail Sylvilagus floridanus. These paired population trends have led to the inference of competition between the two species. Competition between native and introduced species has often involved overlapping use of food resources, but limited effort has been spent to analyze the diets of New England cottontail and eastern cottontail and to evaluate the potential for resource competition. We used microhistological analysis of fecal pellets to assess the winter diets of both species and we compared diet composition with available plant communities to evaluate their preferences for dietary items across southern New England and southeastern New York. We found no differences in diets between New England cottontail and eastern cottontail, although diets did differ between regions within the study area. Diet preferences also were consistent between the species and largely excluded non-native plant genera. Our results demonstrate that these species are generalist herbivores and that there is high potential for competition for food resources in the winter between them, although the present lack of diet partitioning may indicate the presence of other factors limiting competition. This study highlights the need for careful evaluation of interactions between native and non-native species, a prerequisite for developing conservation plans that appropriately account for interspecific competition.
