Full textAbstract:
Researching musical instruments on frescoes, miniatures, icons and sculptural decorations of mediaeval Serbian art, painted and sculptured in the manner of Byzantine art, we discover Oriental and Western influences. Musical instruments arriving from the Orient were unchanged for centuries and those from West Europe were mainly used in the Middle Ages or the Renaissance. Oriental and Western influences can be observed on instruments of all families-idiophones, membranophones, bowed and string instruments, as well as on aero phones. The same form of some crotales and cymbals can be found both in Oriental and Western art, the majority of membranophones are of Oriental origin, but the tambourine on Bodani frescoes originated in West Europe. Lyres and angular harps are close to Antique tradition. Some bowed instruments, psalteries, lutes, harps, short horns, business and shawms have Oriental patterns and other instruments of these families accepted Western shapes. There are, as well, same kinds of bowed instruments and S-trumpets peculiar for both continents.

Arab culture and the religion of Islam permeated the traditions and customs of the African sub-Sahara for centuries. When the early colonizers from Europe arrived in Africa they encountered these influences and spontaneously perceived the African cultures to be ideologically hybridized and more compatible with Islam than with the ideologies of the west. This difference progressively endorsed a perception of Africa and the east being “exotic” and was as such depicted in early paintings and writings. This depiction contributed to a cultural misunderstanding of Africa and facilitated colonialism. This article briefly explores some of the facets of these early texts and paintings. In the first place the scripts by early Muslim scholars, who critically analyzed early western perceptions, were discussed against the textual interpretation of east-west perceptions such as the construction of “the other”. Secondly, the travel writers and painters between 1860 and 1930, who created a visual embodiment of the exotic, were discussed against the politics behind the French Realist movement that developed in France during that same period. This included the construction of a perception of exoticness as represented by literature descriptions and visual art depictions of the women of the Orient. These perceptions rendered Africa as oriental with African subjects depicted as “exotic others”.

Full textAbstract:
Oriental influences present in Polish culture since the Middle Ages and incarnated by the idea of “sarmatisme” were re-evaluated or outright rejected by the young modernist generation. In fact, at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth century the traditional Polish “Orientality” was replaced by a wave of interest for the aesthetics of Islamic art, a reflection of the European “Oriental renaissance”. The Polish imaginarium had long associated the art and culture of Islam uniquely to the Middle East and its craft. The romantic epoch brought with it a new interest for medieval Spain, Granada in particular, its history and monuments, reflected in the poetry of Adam Mickiewicz and the museographic realisations of Izabela Czartoryska at Puławy or Tytus Działyński at Kórnik. If architectural projects, principally of “Moorish” synagogues and internal decorations for aristocratic and bourgeois palaces still belong to a nineteenth century oriental current, they do however already reveal a will typical of pre-war decades by virtue of granting significance to Islamic decorative principles. In the first decades of the twentieth century, “à l’orientale” motifs recurrent in fashion and the visual universe, as witnessed by contemporary novels, found a sort of counterpoint in propositions made by representatives of the Polish applied art revival movement, successful hybridization of European, oriental and popular models: fabrics, carpets, metal and leather objects of artists from the Warsztaty Krakowskie (Cracow workshops, founded 1913) such as Józef Czajkowski, Wojciech Jastrzębowski, Bonawentura Lenart, and Karol Tichy, “javano-cracovian” batiks of young workshop apprentices or even the glazed ceramics of Stanisław Jagmin. Displayed at the 1925 Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts in Paris, the Cracow Workshop adherent’s productions draw the attention of the European public and critics on this peculiar breed of national “primitivist” style tainted with Orientalism.

Full textAbstract:
Theory development in leadership has been researched in different ways, depending on the researcher’s methodological choices and understanding of leadership. Using an inductive analysis based on this study, the influences of Chinese traditional philosophy on leadership have emerged. Specifically, the themes of the influences are pointed to the following Chinese traditional philosophies: (1) Spiritual- Buddhism; (2) Humanity-Confucianism; (3) Naturalistic-Taoist philosophy; and (4) Strategic- Sun Zi Art of War. The knowledge and evaluated understanding of the Chinese traditional philosophy are embedded in the life experiences of the respondents. Considering the dynamics of corporate leadership practices and the demands of the ever-changing macro, meso and micro environments, situational context as well as the followership, it is important to acknowledge that wisdom or wisdom to act, rather than mere leadership behaviour that would ensure generation of leadership dynamism. Such an acknowledgement could further drive and reinforce and offer a richer view to sustain the wisdom to act derived from Oriental values and philosophy that influence corporate leadership practices for organizational success and performance.Â

Full textAbstract:
"One of the most important figures of the 20th century, avant-garde composer, artist, writer, and theorist John Cage was deeply influenced by various philosophical orientations from South and East Asia, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Zen, and I-Ching. He studied various doctrines and the works of several Asian philosophers, which resulted in the reorientation of his philosophical and aesthetic ideas. At the same time, this influenced his musical style, the conception of his compositions, as well as his thoughts on the functions of art – discernible in his music. Cage identified himself with certain ideas he encountered in the philosophical texts he studied, but he refrained from describing himself as representative of any of these orientations. Unlike other Western composers inspired by oriental art and music, Cage was rather influenced by the philosophical dimension of Asia. He avoided the use of Asian music sources in his works and was not interested in using new sounds for the sake of creating a novel musical discourse but aimed to evoke or emphasize certain philosophical ideas through his composition. The aim of the present paper is to present the Asian philosophical influences that marked the figure of John Cage, his perspective on life and art, and influenced his rhetoric, as well as the ideas that he employed within his compositional process. Keywords: John Cage, Asia, Avant-garde, Hinduism, Buddhism, Zen, I-Ching, indeterminacy "

Full textAbstract:
It is well-known that close contacts between Greece and the Near East were already being forged in the Geometric Period (c. 1100–750 BC) and this resulted in objects of Near Eastern origin being imported into Greece well before the mid-8th century, for example ivories and metal bowls. It is assumed these Oriental goods and influences were transmitted to Greece and the islands via the Phoenician ports on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean and to a lesser extent overland through Anatolia. In the subsequent Archaic Period (c. 750–500 BC), particularly in the so-called Early Orientalizing Period, these contacts were intensified and the importation of Near Eastern luxury goods is attested by the presence of ivory plaques for furniture, bowls, cauldrons, weapons and jewellery. In this period, too, Oriental forms and motifs were copied or adapted to produce objects in a so-called Orientalizing style. The problem is therefore twofold. The first difficulty is to distinguish between objects imported from the Near East and those produced locally but deriving their inspiration from the Near East (Oriental versus Orientalizing). The second problem is to decide, if an object is Oriental, which part of the Near East it comes from. It is clear that many different cultures are represented: as well as Assyrian and Babylonian, there are also Phoenician, Syrian, Neo-Hittite, Urartian, Phrygian, Iranian, Caucasian and Egyptian. It is often difficult to distinguish between the products of these cultures, even when the material is found in the Near East where there was considerable interchange of goods particularly in the early 1st millennium BC, and it is even more difficult when it is found in Greece. Pierre Demargne took a particularly pessimistic view. He wrote:“It is hard to classify the Oriental objects found in Greece. Our knowledge of them is still too meagre for us to distinguish with any certainty between ‘Oriental’ or ‘Orientalizing’ or to plot out a chronological and geographical distribution of objects according to their more or less Orientalizing nature. Nor have we any reliable means of tracing these objects to specific workshops in the East. We can only assume that the art centres whence they came were numerous” (Demargne 1964, p. 329).

Full textAbstract:
In this paper I look at the ?oriental controversy? of the neo-folk music in Serbia, focusing on the changes in the perception of the longstanding Serbian-Bosnian ensemble Juzni vetar (Southern Wind) in the academic circles, media and various segments of the music industry. The affirmative attitude towards the performers and music legacy of Juzni vetar, which has in recent years gradually entered the media from the alternative (non-commercial) music and art circles, may be observed in the context of the contemporary globalized music industry which constantly challenges orientalist assumptions and divisions between East and West. The key turning point in this process is the newly-embraced understanding of Juzni vetar (and ?turban-folk? in general) as part of Serbia?s cultural heritage. Using a representative sample of academic and media comments, in this paper I shed some light on the shifts in the reception of Juzni vetar primarily as an indication of the wider changes in the reception of the Ottoman legacy and contemporary influences of the ?Orient? in the contemporary Serbian culture, not excluding the wider context of Southeastern Europe.

Full textAbstract:
In the European cultural tradition of the second half of the nineteenth century, the framework of the discipline of art history was outlined through a clearly defined set of boundaries of its research into objects, space and time. By identifying itself as a history of European architecture, painting, sculpture and the applied arts, art history excluded the art of the primitive, Oriental, American and Asian, both early and moredeveloped civilizations from the remit of its research and study (Dilly). However, a scholarly paradigm which was postulated like this could not be applied to the study and assessment of numerous twentieth-centuryartistic practices which were based on the exploration of cultures as systems of discourse and ideology. In other words, a shattering shift within the discipline was caused by the epochal change of what a paradigm is: as suggested by T. S. Kuhn, it is understood as thenormative content of the topic under discussion. Such an understanding of a paradigm indirectly influences scholarly processes because it dictates what is to be researched, which questions are to be asked and how they are to be formulated, and how research findings are to be interpreted. Scholarly interest has turned from a chronological study of the development of artistic styles, schools and movements in the history ofEuropean art towards contextual research into the same topics which are set within a spatial and chronological framework of a series of discontinued revolutions in world views. The difficulty of applying a traditional scholarly apparatus to new models was also transferred in the field of aesthetics, which resulted in a complete rejection of the evaluation of art as judgement of taste, as it was specifically perceived in this philosophical (sub) discipline from Baumgarten (1750) onwards. To some degree, aesthetics was replaced by an interdisciplinaryunderstanding of art theory which developed from various autonomous disciplines which are nonetheless mutually interconnected through their research processes, that is, the social sciences and humanities such as history of art, art criticism, sociology of art, psychology of art, semiotics and semiology of art, philosophy of art and aesthetics. In such a context,our interest is directed towards the understanding of a theoretical field which has been defined as the history of art history, since it outlines the journey of a discipline, in Udo Kultermann’s book of the same name which is on the reading list for the course in art theory in Croatian academic art-historical circles. The study of that section of the book which describes the history of art history in the classical period, has demonstrated that the explanations and conclusions contained in it are in contrast to the explanations and conclusions of prominent art theorians, especially those who studied the history of aesthetics and classical philology. We can note the differences on two levels. The first is the methodology of scholarly research, while the second is based on a different perception of the boundaries of the domain of art-historical theory. Kultermann relies on a strict division with regard to content and methodology between art istory,philosophy (aesthetics) and historiography, and so, following from this, it appears that classical art history almost did not even exist. On the other hand, the theory of art takes into consideration the nature of classical historiographic standards, the aim of which was to provide examples of the normative content of philosophy, that is, the testimonies of its credibility and manifestation. Such an approach takes into account thecontent norms of the preserved classical sources about art, and through it, our perception of the position of art in that period focuses on the theoretical insights which are more encompassing than those encountered in the aforementioned section of Kultermann’s book. Based on this, we suggest that the evaluation of material should follow the methodological standards of art theory in such a way that individual artistic eras are understood and interpreted as historical periods which were unifiedthrough invariable paradigms which were always new and which integrated a large number of artistic concepts and ideas but which, nonetheless, possessed a general value in a specific period. According to Bihalji-Merin, we act like this out of gratitude towards an academicdiscipline which creates an orderly knowledge since the “images which lead us, constructed from a mythical tradition, disperse slowly and instead of them, a critical, human system of thought is formed.” Such aprocess focuses primarily on the revision of a number of hitherto unrevised prejudices towards theory.However, this is not done on the ruins of the historical legacy of art history but on its foundations.

Paul Cezanne is one of the representative artists of post-impressionism in France. In the early 19th century, Japanese paintings were famous and influenced by the second industrial revolution and respected Oriental works of art. Many Western artists initially increased Oriental elements to create but superficial. In the mid-19th century, with the emergence of Oriental art stores in the streets of France, the popularity of Oriental works has been further developed. Until the late 19th century, represented by Cezanne artists, art has been dared to explore and innovate on the road. Painting, especially in the late paintings of many potential injections of Oriental elements. Cezanne did not go to the East; a visible blend of Eastern and Western art exploration seems to have a hidden fusion very early. Therefore, this paper attempts to conduct a preliminary discussion on three aspects of composition, artistic temperament, and color, which helps us further explore the early integration of Eastern and Western art.

The article is devoted to three directions of oriental architecture – cult, palace and park. Its main part concerns the architecture of the Budapest synagogues. As an example of Russian orientalism, the phenomenon of Black Sea palaces of the highest St. Petersburg aristocracy is given. The Hungarian masterpiece of park oriental architecture, the elephant house in the zoo of Budapest, is analyzed. It is concluded that Orientalism had influence on the formation of national styles and fostered the development of Art Nouveau, Art Deco and Modernism.

Cette thèse cherche à mettre en évidence les raisons qui ont amené une large part des ateliers grecs à orientaliser leurs productions durant la "période orientalisante" (VIIe siècle avant J.-C.). La méthode déployée pour répondre à cet objectif consiste en une contextualisation sociale des artisanats orientalisants, laquelle s'effectue par le biais de l'analyse d'un certain nombre de contextes archéologiques et de textes. Une fois le rôle des objets orientalisants dans la société proto-archaïque mis en évidence, leurs raisons d'être apparaissent plus clairement.Le développement de la citoyenneté en Grèce à partir de la seconde moitié du VIIIe siècle avant J.-C. a donné lieu à une extension du pouvoir politique et militaire à une part plus importante de la population des cités. La propagation de ce qui constituait autrefois les principaux modes de reconnaissance a amené les élites à développer de nouvelles façons de se distinguer dans le paysage social. Dans un même temps, les citoyens de chaque cité ont développé des institutions communales, telles que les cultes civiques et les repas en commun, afin d'unifier le groupe qu'ils formaient et de renforcer le fossé qui séparait celui-ci du reste de la société. Le travail de contextualisation entrepris dans cette thèse a montré que l'art orientalisant constituait un outil facilitant la mise en place de ces deux évolutions.
D'une part, parce qu'ils faisaient explicitement allusion aux cultures du Proche-Orient, dont les richesses exerçaient une réelle fascination sur les Grecs de cette époque, les objets orientalisants permettaient de rehausser le prestige de leurs propriétaires. Autrement dit, ils constituaient des modes de reconnaissance sociale particulièrement efficaces. De nombreuses données archéologiques et textuelles ont permis de confirmer ce point de vue, mettant en évidence que les objets orientalisants étaient utilisés lors de banquets prestigieux, comme offrandes ostentatoires aux dieux et aux morts, ou encore pour contenir de précieux parfums.
D'autre part, en tant qu'esthétique nouvelle, complètement libérée des formes géométriques utilisées durant les siècles précédents, l'art orientalisant figurait également au rang des pratiques censées unifier la citoyenneté. Cette seconde conclusion a été mise en évidence au travers de l'étude du cas de la Crète, où, au VIIe siècle, l'art orientalisant a en grande partie été utilisé dans le cadre d'institutions civiques :les banquets publics, les cultes civiques, et les guerres.
This dissertation aims at the understanding of the reasons lying behind the orientalization of artefacts in Greece during the so-called "Orientalizing period" (i.e. the 7th cent. BC). In order to achieve this goal, the author focused on archaeological contexts and textual information. They allowed him to replace the orientalizing objects back in their original social context and to understand their initial purposes.
The birth of the citizenship in Greece at the end of the 8th cent. BC gave rise to the extension of the political and military power to a wider part of the population. This created a need for the former elite to develop other means of social distinction. Conversely, the communities of citizens developed communal institutions, like civic cults, communal dinners, etc. meant to cement and to level the group, and to reinforce the gulf that separated it from the rest of the society. This thesis showed that orientalizing art contributed to the setting up of these changes.
On one hand, because Greek orientalizing artefacts explicitly alluded to Near Eastern cultures, that were indeed perceived as being particularly rich at that time by the Greeks, they could enhance the individual prestige of the people using them. Archaeological research confirmed this hypothesis, showing that Greek orientalizing objects were used during conspicuous banquets, as lavish offerings for the dead and the gods, and for containing precious perfumes.
On the other hand, as artefacts decorated in a new style, completely freed from the geometric aesthetics displayed in the previous centuries, orientalizing objects also figured among the practices developed for strengthening the citizens’ corps. This second conclusion was reached through the study-case of Crete, where orientalizing art of the 7th cent. seems nearly exclusively used in a context of civic institutions :public banquets, civic cults and festivals, and wars.

Full textAbstract:
This study is an examination of the influence of Oriental (specifically Chinese and Japanese) art and ideas on Robert Motherwell's work. To a certain extent, it is also an effort to balance previous interpretations that have mainly focused on the influence of Surrealists, Mondrian, and Picasso and to shed new light on the understanding of Motherwell's art. Consideration is given to the historical background of Motherwell's interest in Oriental art and ideas as well as the relation between this interest and his major artistic concerns. Among other things, the thesis investigates the influence of Oriental concept of the void on Motherwell's spatial conception, especially in the sense of using empty space. It also gives an account of the influence of Oriental calligraphy and ink painting on Motherwell's work in terms of pictorial languages and physical action.

Full textAbstract:
Ce travail part du lien, affirmé par Matisse, entre ses recherches esthétiques, fondatrices de la modernité dans les arts visuels occidentaux, et ce qu'il nomme lui-même "la connaissance et l'influence des arts de l'orient". A partir de là, l'étude cherche à répondre à trois questions : quelles étaient exactement les traditions que matisse nommait "orientales" et par quels aspects l'sont-elles retenu ? En quoi peuvent-elles avoir joué un rôle pour l'aider à bouleverser les données de l'image classique, telle qu'elle lui avait été transmise par la tradition européenne ? Enfin, dans quelle mesure de tels rapprochements peuvent-ils nous permettre, aujourd'hui, de mieux comprendre la nature de ses ambitions esthétiques ? Pour répondre à ces questions, un large usage est fait des archives personnelles du peintre, afin de suivre de manière parallèle l'émergence de son esthétique et l'évolution du contexte intellectuel et visuel dans lequel celle-ci a pris place (critiques et collectionneurs avec lesquels il a été en contact, visites et voyages qu'il a entrepris). La thèse défendue est que la réflexion autour des arts d'orient incarne tout autre chose qu'un simple aspect de l'œuvre de Matisse. D'une part, elle est indissolublement liée, chez lui, au développement de la notion de décoratif, elle-même constitutive de son esthétique. D'autre part, elle ne peut être abordée comme une influence parmi d'autres : plus que d'une influence, il s'agit d'un paradigme théorique qui permet au peintre de mieux définir sa propre position dans l'histoire et d'être alors encourage dans la réalisation de ses exigences esthétiques. Or ce besoin de compréhension de soi, ce constant effort de distanciation critique constitue l'autre grande polarité de l'esthétique matissienne. C'est pourquoi, dans le champ oriental, la référence à l'art byzantin est apparue particulièrement éclairante : héritière directe de l'antiquité gréco-romaine, la civilisation byzantine a en effet conçu un art fonde sur une esthétique totalement opposée a celle de l'antiquité, une esthétique non-mimétique qu'on peut, avec Georges Dutuit (gendre de Matisse et byzantiniste lui-même), qualifier de "haute décoration figurative". Elle a donc fourni au peintre et peut également fournir au critique contemporain des éléments conceptuels pour mieux comprendre la relation à la fois conflictuelle et féconde entre souci de création décorative et souci d'investigation critique.

Full textAbstract:
Cette recherche vise à éclairer le phénomène, dans l’art contemporain, de la création d'« espaces méditatifs » destinés à induire un certain état d’esprit fait d’intériorisation paisible. Nous l’étudions chez des artistes dont la plupart sont inspirés par la pensée extrême-orientale. Il s'agit des Coréens Kim Ho-deuk, Kim Kichul, Kimsooja, Kim Sung-bae, Yee Sookyung, des Japonais Miyanaga Aiko et Yamamoto Motoi, de l'Allemand Wolfgang Laib et de la Française Tania Mouraud. L'espace méditatif est réalisé au moyen de l’élaboration de divers genres d’environnements sensoriels, souvent poly-sensoriels, qui incitent le spectateur à s’y plonger et le conduisent ainsi à une certaine méditation. Dans la création de cet espace particulier, ce qui est essentiel, ce n’est pas seulement l’idée et le concept de l’artiste, mais aussi le soin qu’il met à réaliser son oeuvre. Soin dans la manipulation et l’exécution, recourant tantôt à des techniques artisanales traditionnelles, tantôt à d’autres, complètement inédites. Toujours l’attention est première : on la voit dans leurs actes lents, répétitifs, ascétiques, qui ressemblent même parfois à un rite. Ils ouvrent à une autre dimension de l’art, que l’on peut qualifier de spirituelle. On passe ainsi de la réflexion à la méditation, et parfois on rejoindra l’artiste dans l’intuition d’où est née l’oeuvre. Des questions fondamentales sont ainsi soulevées, sur la vie, la mort, le temps. Églises et temples sont aujourd'hui moins fréquentés, mais beaucoup cherchent une sorte d’espace ouvert « vers le haut », ou « vers le profond », un « espace méditatif ». Trouveront-ils cet espace à la galerie ou au musée ?This study attempts to shed some light on the creation of what might be called “meditative spaces” in Contemporary Art, spaces which seem to engender a special state of mind induced by peaceful interiorization. Most of the artists we study are inspired by Far Eastern thought: Kim Ho-deuk, Kim Kichul, Kimsooja, Kim Sung-bae, Yee Sookyung from Korea, Miyanaga Aiko and Yamamoto Motoi from Japan, Wolfgang Laib from Germany, and Tania Mouraud, from France. This meditative space is created by the elaboration of different kinds of sensory environments, often poly-sensory ones, which incite the spectator to immerse themself, leading them thereby to some kind of meditation. What matters here is not only the artist’s idea or concept, but also the care the artist takes to create their work. Care in the creation and performance which, sometimes, uses traditional craft techniques, sometimes wholly different, very original ones. The quality of attention always comes first: it can be seen in their way of proceeding, using slow, repetitive, ascetic movements, which sometimes even look like a ritual. Thus they open Art to a new dimension that could well be called spiritual. From reflection one slowly moves to meditation, and perhaps even—when the spectator joins the artist in his/her intuition—to the very source which gave birth to the work. Fundamental questions are thereby raised, about Life, Death, and Time. Churches and temples are less and less attended today, but many people still look for a kind of place, an “uplifting” open space, or an “inward” one: a meditative space. Will they be able to find it at the gallery or in the museum ?

Le présent travail étudie certains contacts culturels entre l'Inde et le Moyen-Âge italien, en suivant leur parcours d'Orient en Occident à travers l'Iran, le Moyen et Proche Orient, la Méditerranée et Byzance. On s'est attaché en particulier à des phénomènes relatifs à l'iconographie et à l'architecture. Une évaluation initiale de l'apport des auteurs classiques a permis d'obtenir un témoignage préliminaire sur la perception concrète et imaginaire de la culture indienne. Ensuite grâce l'analyse des contacts commerciaux dans l'époque du Moyen-Âge on a défini les principales voies de communication, celles empruntées par le commerce mais aussi celles qu'ont suivies les éléments culturels, en soulignant encore une fois ce mélange de réalité historique et d'imaginaire qui marque les mirabilia de l'Orient. L'étude de détails iconographiques ou architecturaux a permis de faire apparaître quelques liens éventuels entre l'imaginaire de la licorne et ses représentations dans les églises médiévales italiennes. Enfin on a utilisé certains éléments architecturaux indiens comme l'arc en accolade pour expliquer l'origine de certaines structures architecturales typiques du Moyen-Âge italienThe aim of the present work is to consider some cultural relationships between India and the Italian Middle Ages - following a route, from East to West, through the Iranian countries, the Middle and Near East - the Mediterranean and Byzantine world - and then trying to examine various cultural topics relating to iconography, architecture and history of art. An evaluation of the classical texts gives a preliminary picture of the real and imaginary perception of Indian culture. This is followed by an analysis of commercial contacts in Mediaeval times, showing the main communication routes, not only for trade but also culture, and underlines this blending of historical reality and imagination (the oriental mirabilia). The study takes a closer look at iconography and architecture in order to trace some possible links between the imagery of the Unicorn and its representations in Mediaeval churches of Italy. Further important architectural topics such as the Indian and Buddhist arch has been taken into account to present an analysis of some Mediaeval architectural forms in Italy

Lié à des contacts avec l'Occident, il prend cependant sa source dans les arts populaires et religieux pratiqués auparavant en Syrie. Le fait que la suprématie militaire et économique de l'Occident se manifeste aussi dans le domaine culturel avec l'apparition de la peinture est mal vécu par les peintres syriens. Ce malaise se traduit différemment d'une génération à l'autre. Chaque génération en tire son style, qui est chaque fois une manière de surmonter ce problème. Les premiers peintres se tournent vers le passé glorieux d'Arabes représentant des sujets historiques. Les tentatives les plus importantes sont le fait de la deuxième génération qui tente de donner à sa production "moderne" un caractère culturel spécifique lié à la tradition arabo-musulmane. Mais, faute de maturité et d'audace, ce mouvement conduit à une certaine banalisation de cette tradition, réduit à de simples motifs ornementaux. Ce sont les grandes figures de la troisième génération qui parviennent actuellement à la maturité, en engageant un dialogue plus profond, avec eux-mêmes et avec leur traditionThis thesis retraces the principal stages of the history of the modern art in Syria. This type of art has its origins at the beginning of the XXth century in Syria. Although mainly influenced by contacts with the West, it, nonetheless, is based on the popular and religious arts, which were practiced around the region before the XXth century. The military and economic supremacy of the West, manifested parallely in the cultural domain with the appearance of painting, is ill-perceived by the syrian painters. The ill-feeling is differently expressed by generations, each of them elaborating its style in guise of means to surmount the problem. The most important attempts have been accomplished by the second generation who tried to endow its "modern" production with specific arabo-islamic character. But, for lack of sufficient deepening, this movement produced a certain banalisation of artistic heritage, reduced to simple ornamental motives. Today, the major figures of the third generation, that lives its full maturity, try to free themselves from these preoccupations, looking for a dialog and a deeper contact, with themselves on the one hand, with their tradition on the other

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this research is to explore if and how men performing makeup can shift the beauty norms and beauty representations for women. The shift is studied in the context of Instagram- a photo and video sharing social media platform, where individuals with large followings are called influencers, whereas their presence is qualified as influence. The study looks into how the influence of two of the top male makeup influencers is measured and manifested, and if and how their influence can generate a shift for female beauty norms. To understand if and how a shift can be produced, I focused on analyzing the metrics, the posted content and the interactions and opinions of the followers. This tri-dimensional approach focuses on the elements a shift around Instagram’s male makeup artists involves: influence, which in the context of Instagram is measurable (metrics); the representations the shared content embodies (i.e. images and text), and the feedback given by the followers on their interaction with the accounts. Understanding and studying how these merge together helps getting a sense of what impact the male makeup influencers are potentially having on female beauty norms through Instagram.The key findings uncovered that the two male influencers are a source of inspiration for women, whilst also teaching them how to perform makeup in terms of techniques, products and tools. The influencer- follower relationship is strong enough to make women follow their advice and even proceed to buying products suggested by the male makeup artists. More so, women no longer find it unusual for men to perform makeup, and see makeup related content suitable for both men and women. These findings highlight the role men play in changing beauty norms for women on social media while they perform female assigned beauty practices.

Notre recherche vise à établir les rapports de parenté entre la contemporanéité dans la peinture arabe et le traditionalisme dans l'art islamique; à partir d'une vision analytique synthétique. La thèse se compose de trois parties : - la première discute des influences du modernisme et de l'orientalisme européens : négatifs sur les arts populaires ; positifs sur la naissance de la peinture arabe contemporaine au sein de la renaissance arabe au XIXe siècle. - la deuxième sonde les influences islamiques dans la peinture au Liban, en Egypte, en Syrie et en Iraq comme elles se sont prononcées dans le contexte des courants occidentaux de l'académisme jusqu'aux confins de l'abstraction. Nous avons pu distinguer l'existence de deux périodes artistiques : l'éveil (1900-1930) et la renaissance (1930-1950) ; et de deux courants généraux : l'occidentalisation et l'arabisation. - aussi dans la troisième partie, notre méthodologie part des facteurs socio-politiques, culturels et artistiques pour atteindre une vision objective, globale et unificatrice, et aboutit à trois catégories de peinture arabe : la première complétement occidentalisée, la deuxième de vision orientaliste ; et la troisième, la plus authentique résultant de la fusion de deux esthétiques : islamique traditionnelle et occidentale moderne. Une recréation déductive de ce qui est substantiel dans la thèse s'est fait à travers la conclusion générale, et montre : - le sujet - le contenu comme notion esthétique arabe. - l'attitude du peintre arabe vis-à-vis de la limitation (l'interdiction) dans la peinture figurative. - la découverte de trois étapes au sein du courant de l'arabisation de la peinture. - développement de la comparaison entre deux genres de peinture, et d'esthétique arabo-islamique : traditionnelle et contemporaineThis study aims to establish the relationship between the contemporaneousness in Arabic painting and the traditionalism in Islamic art through a synthetic, analytical and methodological vision. My dissertation consists of three parts : the first part discusses the influences of modernism and the European orientalism : negative influences upon popular arts but positive ones upon the birth of the contemporary Arabic painting in its relation to the modern Arabic renaissance in the nineteenth century. The second part probes the Islamic influences in the painting of Lebanon, Egypt, Syria and Iraq. In addition, we have examined those Islamic influences within the occidental current - from academicism to abstractionism. In the third part, our methodology starts from the factors of sociopolitical, cultural and artistic ones in order to establish a wholly and objective vision that respects the aesthetical, historical and critical dimensions of work leading us to three categories of Arabic painting : 1. It is completely occidentalized. 2. It is an Arabic orientalist's vision. 3. It is more authentic i. E. It comes from the fusion of both traditional Islamic aesthetic and modern occidental one. The most important elements in the general conclusion are the following: 1. We showed up the subject - content (in painting) as an Arabic, Islamic and aesthetic notion. 2. We discovered three stages within the current of Arabic painting. 3. We examined the attitude of contemporary Arabic painting vis-a-vis the limitation (interdiction) in the figurative painting

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThree important aspects of ground-motion modelling for regional or portfolio risk analyses are discussed. The first issue is the treatment of discretisation of continuous ground-motion fields for generating spatially correlated discrete fields. Shortcomings of the present approach in which correlation models based upon point estimates of ground motions are used to represent correlations within and between spatial regions are highlighted. It is shown that risk results will be dependent upon the chosen spatial resolution if the effects of discretisation are not adequately treated. Two aspects of non-ergodic groundmotion modelling are then discussed. Correlation models generally used within risk modelling are traditionally based upon very simple partitioning of ground-motion residuals. As regional risk analyses move to non-ergodic applications where systematic site effects are considered, these correlation models (both inter-period and spatial models) need to be revised. The nature of these revisions are shown herein. Finally, evidence for significantly reduced between-event variability within earthquake sequences is presented. The ability to progressively constrain location and sequence-dependent systematic offsets from ergodic models as earthquake sequences develop can have significant implications for aftershock risk assessments.

AbstractThis article seeks to repurpose the relation between courts and IP law, avoiding describing them as a purely neutral and unidimensional process whereby ‘courts apply IP law’. Based on two cases from Brazil (Trastuzumab and Sofosbuvir), the article argues that the role of courts in implementing TRIPS flexibilities is in itself a factor that determines or at least influences the behavior of actors in the field. As such, courts are not arenas, but actors that influence competition and restructure markets. This pushes for the recognition that patent use and patent abuse, including practices in patent filings such as evergreening and sham litigation, are legal phenomena that ought to be regulated differently by law. Instead of formalist positivism, law should be more thoughtful of socio-economic consequences and of existing contexts. This aims at addressing economic structures rather than reinforcing them in cases pertaining to pharmaceutical patents.The article concludes by proposing an interpretation of IP law which is integrated with competition law principles, both oriented towards, and based on, public interest provisions. Overall, the article posits that this is a better framework than regarding IP and competition law as ‘complementary’ and to address issues of how courts may be misused by economic actors due to fragmentation of the two legal fields. Furthermore, such endeavors are part of an emerging body of what some could even call “global law”; in this case, it means a nod for the transnational implications of national IP cases beyond its original realm.

Abstract This chapter acknowledges the substantial role tour operators play in the tourism industry as intermediaries bundling different individual tourism offerings together. The study adopts an evolutionary approach through the analyses of tour operators' sustainability and audit reports and investigates whether German tour operators who have gained the corporate social responsibility (CSR) certification 'TourCert' have the potential to act as change agents, upscale the downscaling idea of degrowth and contribute to a reformist pathway of structural change. The findings reveal that CSR certification schemes do not seem to genuinely foster the restructuring of the tourism market within the capitalist system, but can only marginally advocate and diffuse certain elements of degrowth-oriented tourism. At the same time, CSR certification schemes lack the influence necessary for a paradigm shift and for this reason the approach of degrowth-oriented tourism seems unsuitable for mainstream application.

AbstractThe demanded fast innovation cycles of the ongoing digital transformation create an unstable environment in which the demands of heterogeneous professional communities need to be addressed. Moreover, the information systems infrastructure of these professional communities has a strong influence on their practices. However, the evolution of the web as infrastructure is shaped by an interplay of new technologies and innovative applications. It is characterized by contrasts, such as centralized versus peer-to-peer architectures and a large number of end users versus a small number of developers. Therefore, our aim is to stabilize these dichotomies apparent in the web by means of an agile information systems development methodology. The DevOps approach promotes stronger cooperation between development and operations teams. Our DevOpsUse methodology additionally fosters a stronger involvement of end-user communities in software development by including them in the process of infrastructuring, that is, the appropriation of infrastructure during its usage. The developed DevOpsUse methodology and support tools have been successfully validated by the transitions between three generations of technologies: near real-time peer-to-peer web architectures, edge computing, and the Internet of Things. In particular, we were able to demonstrate our methodology’s capabilities through longitudinal studies in several large-scale international digitalization projects. Beyond web information systems, the framework and its open-source tools are applicable in further areas like Industry 4.0. Its broad adaptability testifies that DevOpsUse has the potential to unlock capabilities for sustainable innovation.

AbstractThis chapter addresses issues relating to digital exclusion as a policy challenge affecting older adults in Estonia and Finland. In both countries, the use of technology and digital services is widespread in both the public and private sectors. The requirements of rapidly and constantly evolving digital societies pose challenges for ageing policy in both Estonia and Finland. Delivery of digital services influences positively the life of older people, improves quality of life and increases independence. On the other hand, digital services pose new problems for older populations. Since digitalisation represents a process of social change, technology innovation needs to contribute to individuals’ well-being. By building digital solutions that are functional both for older people and from the viewpoint of service providers, it is essential to move from traditional service provider-oriented design to human-centred development.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines how young poets and artists became interested in Chinese art that in the 1910s was expressed in the tenets of Vorticism. When Ezra Pound came to London in 1908 he got involved in the circle of British poets, artists and critics who held regular social gatherings at the Vienna Café in New Oxford Street. Among them was Laurence Binyon, poet and Assistant Keeper of Prints and Drawings at the British Museum, who shared with the group his scholarship in Oriental painting. When Binyon was developing his friendship with Pound, Percy Wyndham Lewis and other British Modernists, new art movements were rapidly emerging in Europe. At the same traditional Chinese art was becoming available in museums and in London and other Western art markets. Coinciding with a dynamic change in modern European art, Oriental ideas became an alternative source of inspiration for the West. In 1914, Pound collaborated with Lewis and Henri Gaudier-Brzeska to promote a new artistic movement for which Pound coined the name Vorticism. Gaudier-Brzeska took his inspiration from Chinese animal bronzes of the Zhou dynasty and Lewis from the landscape paintings of the Song dynasty. Their common interest in Chinese art, helped formulate the principles of Vorticism.

Full textAbstract:
During the most part of its long history, the term ‘Orientalism’ has had several interrelated meanings with neutral or positive connotations, some of which are still preserved, for instance, in art, architecture, design, and music, where it refers to Oriental influences and works inspired by Oriental themes and sounds rather attractive and romantic. As an academic term, it was used to denote the European tradition of Asian studies, suggesting a thorough exploration of Eastern cultural heritage, in particular, languages, literature, and artifacts. After the publication of Edward Said’s Orientalism in 1978, the term gained new negative meanings, related to postcolonial theory where it denotes mainly the biased, haughty attitude of the West towards an essentialized East and manifestations of Western colonial discourse in literature, science, and politics, such as the justification of Western imperialism, colonialism, and racial discrimination. The redefinition of the term by postcolonial theorists raised a debate about the about the so-called Western approach to history, sociology, and Asian studies as well as about the permissibility of division of the world into binary opposites, “the Orient” and “the Occident”. By the end of the 20th century, the term ‘Orientalism’ was adapted for the use by anthropologists, and its counterpart, ‘Occidentalism’ emerged, referring to the essentialized, dehumanized image of the West created by non-Western societies. Currently, most of the mentioned meanings have survived, each to some extent, and interfere in various fields of knowledge, creating complex sets of contradictory connotations.

It is often noted that people remember the past to better manage the present. One major driving force of economic behaviour is expectations of the future or ‘imagined futures’, as the sociologist Jens Beckert calls them. But whereas these expectations are oriented towards the future, the frames in which they arise are strongly influenced by the past. During economically difficult situations, economic crises of the past were especially intensively remembered and discussed. The thesis of this chapter is that actors in the public sphere remember crises in alarming situations to orient themselves, construct fictional expectations of the future, and legitimize decisions that have to be taken in the present. The Greek debt crisis from 2009 onwards is used as a case study. The past crisis most recalled in collective memory in this period is the one that followed the Greek bankruptcy of 1893.

The topicality of the study is determined by the discord between the foreign language teaching standards in Russian universities and undergraduate and graduate students’ requirements oriented towards the modern labour market. Having obtained a specialty, university graduates may work in different fields or change their job profile altogether; the borders of professions and professional standards are undergoing changes as well. The aim of the study is to show the necessity to transform foreign language teaching standards at the university level in accordance with the recent and ongoing changes in the job market. The hypothesis of the study is that foreign language teaching standards in Russia should integrate communicative competence, critical and creative thinking, and learning to learn as necessary components. It is suggested that students of non-philological specialties should be taught two or three foreign languages instead of only advancing their command of English. The hypothesis was confirmed by the polls conducted among undergraduate and graduate students of the College of Asian and African Studies (CAAS, Lomonosov MSU), over 2019-2020. The study resulted in developing a new standard of teaching foreign languages at the CAAS, which includes teaching two European languages alongside an oriental/African one, and creating a new structure of the English language course oriented towards developing soft skills rather than a purely linguistic component. Thus, the study seeks to substantiate the need for the new standard by the requirements of the modern job market and graduates’ demands. Creating the new standard targeting soft skills development and teaching two European languages is a practical result of this work.

Full textAbstract:
Music is a part of a child’s everyday life. In family and in preschool institutions, its function is different from the one in school. Music teaching influences the overall students’ development, which can be seen from a pedagogical and artistic perspective. It is aimed at acquiring knowledge and developing students’ skills in the field of art; it encourages aesthetic education, but also the preservation of historical and cultural heritage. The domain in which this is mostly realized is listening to music and music understanding. With the intention of bringing art music closer to children and young people, its more intense experiencing and understanding, the paper points to the necessity for an interdisciplinary and correlative relationship of music with other subjects, but also musical activities with each other. Since the author intends to indicate the importance of creating new didactical strategies for music teaching lessons, the Stage-English-Music concepts, the Listening to Music-Music Making model and the Cognitive-emotional approach to listening to music are briefly described. These strategies for the improvement of music listening are based on an interdisciplinary and intradisciplinary approach, depending on whether they include extracurricular activities in the work (e.g. English and drama education), or the work is carried out within musical activities such as singing, playing, or dancing with musicologically, but also humanistically oriented outcomes. Practice and research indicate that in addition to acquiring musical knowledge and developing musical skills, multimodal approaches affect students’ holistic development.

Full textAbstract:
The career paths of students are influenced and shaped by the subject choices that are made in the final years of secondary schooling. This paper presents the findings of an empirical study that identified the key factors influencing the decision of rural / regional Australian students to choose or not choose to study Information Processing and Technology. The findings revealed that career oriented, extrinsic factors play an important role in motivating the selection of I.P.T. at school and, by implication, information technology at university. There are few apparent gender differences but there is limited evidence to suggest that males may be more influenced by extrinsic motivators and females by intrinsic motivators. Although the factors used in the study were initially identified largely via informal processes, they all appear to influence the decision to take I.P.T. The focus on career-related factors and the instrumentality of taking I.P.T. could explain the drop-off in students taking the subject. This has potentially significant implications as regards the future supply of good information technology professionals.

Full textAbstract:
Due to the dynamic development of the oil and gas fields in the Arctic, the challenges of supply fleet sizing and composition in this region are becoming relevant. In most studies, the Arctic is mainly associated with ice conditions, but it is not the only factor that influences the design of platform supply vessels (PSV) and corresponding marine transport systems (MTS) for this region. The structure of cargo flow (i.e. its distribution by cargo types) affects the supply system significantly. It defines the level of utilization of vessel capacity that determines transport efficiency. At the same time, the literature represents this aspect poorly. This paper describes an approach to optimize supply fleet configuration by the criterion of total cost considering both non-stationary ice conditions and structure of cargo flows. The cargo-flow-oriented design concept incorporates the detailed calculation model of PSV and the special tactical planning algorithm. PSV model allows considering the influence of cargo spaces on the main characteristics and operational parameters of the ship. It covers the main design aspects of PSVs: general arrangement; lines plan; resistance in open water and ice; engine and propeller characteristics; hydrostatics; capacity and mass calculation. The pseudo-optimal tactical planning algorithm is intended to build the plan of voyages and to set the size of fleet considering the structure of cargo flow. As the test example, we examine a task of servicing the group of platforms in the Kara Sea. The case study shows that cargo flow structure has a high influence on the efficiency of PSVs in case of high-load operation; while a widespread “deck-cargo” approach is unable to consider this aspect because it ignores the vessel’s carrying capacity and payload. The conclusion about a higher efficiency of PSV compared to AHTS with the same displacement was drawn.

Full textAbstract:
This study looks at the relationship between PMO culture and PMO success from a control theory perspective. PMO success was operationalized using three concepts: (a) domain of control, (b) domain of influence and (c) domain of concern. The motivation of the study is to understand if and how culture types could influence PMO success and what are the attributes of these cultures. Using Cameron and Quinn’s culture model, a cross-sectional, worldwide online survey yielded 219 responses. Analysis was done through factor analysis and moderated hierarchical regression analysis. The factor analysis showed that both clan and market culture types correlate to PMO success. A case study then determined the antecedents of culture types and how they influenced PMO success. PMOs that were more commercially focused, that is, supporting revenue-generating projects, were more market culture oriented, whereas PMOs that were internally focused were clan culture type. The implications for practitioners are that competence profiles of PMO people will need to be aligned to the culture type of the PMO that is linked to PMO success. The results are important for academics as PMOs have different culture types depending on the customers and the clients they serve.

Full textAbstract:
Turbulence promoters such as ribs inside turbine blade coolant channels are used to improve convective cooling but at the same time could influence external film cooling performance. The effects of rib orientation and rib position on film cooling performance are experimentally and numerically studied with a flat plate configuration in which external (main) flow and internal (secondary) flow are oriented perpendicular to each other. In the experiment, temperature fields are measured by thermo-couples varying blowing ratio at constant Reynolds number of main and secondary flows. To obtain detailed information about flow fields, Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) simulation and Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) are also performed using a commercial code Fluent. Temperature measured shows that rib orientation has a strong influence on film effectiveness. With forward-oriented ribs, higher film effectiveness is observed compared to the reference case without ribs. On the contrary with inverse-oriented ribs, lower film effectiveness is observed. The difference comes from the flow structure in the film cooling hole. With the forward-oriented ribs, straight stream lines are observed in the cooling hole, while with the inverse-oriented ribs, helical stream lines are observed. Due to the helical stream lines in the hole, ejection angle of the secondary flow to the main stream becomes large, resulting in so called lift-off and lower film effectiveness.

Full textAbstract:
This paper synthesises the findings of a set of country studies commissioned by the RISE Programme to explore the influence of politics and power on education sector policymaking and implementation. The synthesis groups the countries into three political-institutional contexts: Dominant contexts, where power is centred around a political leader and a hierarchical governance structure. As the Vietnam case details, top-down leadership potentially can provide a robust platform for improving learning outcomes. However, as the case studies of Ethiopia, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Tanzania illustrate, all-too-often dominant leaders’ goals vis-à-vis the education sector can veer in other directions. In impersonal competitive contexts, a combination of strong formal institutions and effective processes of resolving disagreements can, on occasion, result in a shared commitment among powerful interests to improve learning outcomes—but in none of the case studies is this outcome evident. In Peru, substantial learning gains have been achieved despite messy top-level politics. But the Chilean, Indian, and South African case studies suggest that the all-too-common result of rule-boundedness plus unresolved political contestation over the education sector’s goals is some combination of exaggerated rule compliance and/or performative isomorphic mimicry. Personalised competitive contexts (Bangladesh, Ghana, and Kenya for example) lack the seeming strengths of either their dominant or their impersonal competitive contexts; there are multiple politically-influential groups and multiple, competing goals—but no credible framework of rules to bring coherence either to political competition or to the education bureaucracy. The case studies show that political and institutional constraints can render ineffective many specialised sectoral interventions intended to improve learning outcomes. But they also point to the possibility that ‘soft governance’ entry points might open up some context-aligned opportunities for improving learning outcomes. In dominant contexts, the focus might usefully be on trying to influence the goals and strategies of top-level leadership. In impersonal competitive contexts, it might be on strengthening alliances between mission-oriented public officials and other developmentally-oriented stakeholders. In personalised competitive contexts, gains are more likely to come from the bottom-up—via a combination of local-level initiatives plus a broader effort to inculcate a shared sense among a country’s citizenry of ‘all for education’.

Findlay, Trevor. The Role of International Organizations in WMD Compliance and Enforcement: Autonomy, Agency, and Influence. The United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research, December 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.37559/wmd/20/wmdce9.
Full textAbstract:
Major multilateral arms control and disarmament treaties dealing with weapons of mass destruction (WMD) often have mandated an international organization to monitor and verify State party compliance and to handle cases of non-compliance. There are marked differences in the mandates and technical capabilities of these bodies. Nonetheless, they often face the same operational and existential challenges. This report looks at the role of multilateral verification bodies, especially their secretariats, in dealing with compliance and enforcement, the extent to which they achieve “agency” and “influence” in doing so, and whether and how such capacities might be enhanced. In WMD organizations it is the governing bodies that make decisions about noncompliance and enforcement. The role of their secretariats is to manage the monitoring and verification systems, analyse the resulting data – and data from other permitted sources – and alert their governing bodies to suspicions of non-compliance. Secretariats are expected to be impartial, technically oriented and professional. It is when a serious allegation of non-compliance arises that their role becomes most sensitive politically and most vital. The credibility of Secretariats in these instances will depend on the agency and influence that they have accumulated. There are numerous ways in which an international secretariat can position itself for maximum agency and influence, essentially by making itself indispensable to member States and the broader international community. It can achieve this by engaging with multiple stakeholders, aiming for excellence in its human and technical resources, providing timely and sustainable implementation assistance, ensuring an appropriate organizational culture and, perhaps most of all, understanding that knowledge is power. The challenge for supporters of international verification organizations is to enhance those elements that give them agency and influence and minimize those that lead to inefficiencies, dysfunction and, most damaging of all, political interference in verification and compliance judgements.

Full textAbstract:
The development of the information society and technological progress are significantly influenced by the learning tools. Therefore, to the variety of tools that could be used to support the study of any discipline new ones emerging lately are continuously being added. Along with the great deal of systems of computer mathematics (SCM), web-oriented versions of SCM mathematical applications and other math learning tools the cloud-based versions of mathematical software such as MapleNet, MATLAB web-server, WebMathematica and others are now being used. These tools accomplishment becomes the essential part of training mathematics teachers. Domestic and foreign experiences of using cloud services for forming professional competences of mathematics teachers are analyzed. The place of the CoCalc within the system of mathematical disciplines learning tools is investigated. The task of improving the math teachers’ ICT competence by means of cloud services use in the process of training is considered. Among the new forms of learning rising along with the cloud services dissemination are such as collaborative learning, inquiry-based learning, person-oriented learning. At the same time, the use of the appropriate cloud service in the study of some mathematical discipline improves the assimilation of the learning material and improves the knowledge acquisition process on most topics. The analysis of current research of Ukrainian scientists on the problem in question shows that the progress is underway as for further elaboration and implementation of new learning methods and techniques of using cloud services in the higher education institutions.

McGee, Steven, Randi McGee-Tekula, and Jennifer Duck. Does a Focus on Modeling and Explanation of Molecular Interactions Impact Student Learning and Identity? The Learning Partnership, April 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.51420/conf.2017.1.
Full textAbstract:
The Interactions curriculum and professional development program is designed to support high school teachers in their transition to the physical science Next Generation Science Standards. Through curriculum materials, an online portal for delivering the digital materials, interactive models of molecular phenomena, and educative teacher guide, teachers are able to support students in bridging the gap between macroscopic and sub-microscopic ideas in physical science by focusing on a modeling and explanation-oriented exploration of attractions and energy changes at the atomic level. During the fall semester of the 2015-16 school year, The Learning Partnership conducted a field test of Interactions with eleven teachers who implemented the curriculum across a diverse set of school districts. As part of the field test, The Learning Partnership examined the impact of teachers’ inquiry-based teaching practices on student learning and identification with the scientific enterprise. The results indicate that students had statistically significant growth in learning from the beginning to end of unit 2 and that the extent to which teachers engaged students in inquiry had a positive statistically significant influence on the growth rate and a statistically significant indirect impact on students’ identification with the scientific enterprise.

Niles, John, and J. M. Pogodzinski. TOD and Park-and-Ride: Which is Appropriate Where? Mineta Transportation Institute, January 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.31979/mti.2021.1820.
Full textAbstract:
Despite the sharp drop in transit ridership throughout the USA that began in March 2020, two different uses of land near transit stations continue to be implemented in the United States to promote ridership. Since 2010, transit agencies have given priority to multi-family residential construction referred to as transit oriented development (TOD), with an emphasis on housing affordability. In second place for urban planners but popular with suburban commuters is free or inexpensive parking near rail or bus transit centers, known as park-and-ride (PnR). Sometimes, TOD and PnR are combined in the same development. Public policy seeks to gain high community value from both of these land uses, and there is public interest in understanding the circumstances and locations where one of these two uses should be emphasized over the other. Multiple justifications for each are offered in the professional literature and reviewed in this report. Fundamental to the strategic decision making necessary to allocate public resources toward one use or the other is a determination of the degree to which each approach generates transit ridership. In the research reported here, econometric analysis of GIS data for transit stops, PnR locations, and residential density was employed to measure their influence on transit boardings for samples of transit stops at the main transit agencies in Seattle, Los Angeles, and San José. Results from all three cities indicate that adding 100 parking spaces close to a transit stop has a larger marginal impact than adding 100 housing units. Previous academic research estimating the higher ridership generation per floor area of PnR compared to multi-family TOD housing makes this show of strength for parking an expected finding. At the same time, this report reviews several common public policy justifications for TOD as a preferred land development emphasis near transit stations, such as revenue generation for the transit agency and providing a location for below-market affordable housing where occupants do not need to have a car. If increasing ridership is important for a transit agency, then parking for customers who want to drive to a station is an important option. There may also be additional benefits for park-and-ride in responding to the ongoing pandemic.

Full textAbstract:
Whereas at the end of the 20th century there were still high expectations associated with the use of new media in terms of a democratisation of social discourse and new potential for citizens to participate in political decision-making, disillusionment is now spreading. Even today, the internet is often seen only as a technical tool for the transmission of information and communication, which serves as a structural supplement to "real" discourse and decision-making processes. In fact, however, the use of new media can open up additional, previously non-existent possibilities for well-founded and substantial citizen participation, especially at regional and supra-regional level. According to the results of this study, the informal, mediative procedures for conflict resolution in the context of high-risk planning decisions, which are now also increasingly used at the regional level, have two main problem areas. Firstly, in the conception and design chosen so far, they do not offer citizens direct access to the procedure. Citizens are given almost no opportunities to exert substantial influence on the content and procedure of the process, or on the solutions found in the process. So far, this has not been remedied by the use of new media. On the other hand, it is becoming apparent that the results negotiated in the procedure are not, or only inadequately, reflected in the subsequent sovereign decision. This means that not only valuable resources for identifying the problem situation and for integrative problem-solving remain unused, but it is also not possible to realise the effects anticipated with the participation procedures within the framework of context or reflexive self-management. With the aim of advancing the development of institutionally oriented approaches at the practice level, this study discusses potential solutions at the procedural level. This takes into account legal implications as well as the action logics, motives and intentions of the actors involved and aims to improve e-government structures. It becomes evident that opening up informal participation procedures for citizen participation at the regional level can only be realised through the (targeted) use of new media. However, this requires a fundamentally new approach not only in the participation procedures carried out but also, for example, in the conception of information or communication offerings. Opportunities for improving the use of the results obtained from the informal procedures in the (sovereign) decision-making process as well as the development of potentials in the sense of stronger self-control of social subsystems are identified in a stronger interlinking of informal and sovereign procedures. The prerequisite for this is not only the establishment of suitable structures, but above all the willingness of decision-makers to allow citizens to participate in decision-making, as well as the granting of participation opportunities and rights that go beyond those previously granted in sovereign procedures.

Full textAbstract:
The starting point of the research project was the hypothesis that the "principle of proportionality", which is fundamental to law, is related to the "economic principle". The resulting methodological similarities were intended to enable a cross-disciplinary bridge to be built, which would allow the findings of economic analysis to be made fruitful for legal issues. This was practically tested in three study areas in order to be able to better classify the performance of the analytical tools. The foundations for interdisciplinary bridge building are found in the rational-choice paradigm. In both disciplines, this paradigm calls for an examination of the relationship between the purpose-means-relations: among the design options under consideration, the one must be selected that is expected to be as (freedom- or resource-) sparing as possible, in other words, the most "waste-free" solution to the control problem.The results of the economic analysis can thus be "translated" in such a way that, within the framework of "necessity", they support the search for control instruments that are equivalent to the objective but less disruptive. supports. The core of the positive economic analysis is the motivational situation of those actors whose behavior is to be influenced by a changed legal framework. In this context, the classical behavioral model of economics proved to be too limited. It therefore had to be developed further in line with the findings of research in institutional economics into homo oeconomicus institutionalis. This behavioral model takes into account not only the consequentialist, strictly situational utility orientation of the model person, but also other factors influencing behavior, including above all those that are institutionally mediated. If one takes the motivational situation of the actors as the starting point for policy-advising design recommendations, it becomes apparent that an understanding of governance dominated by imperative behavioral specifications leads to less favorable results, both in terms of the degree to which goals are achieved and in terms of the freedom-impairing effects, than a mixed-instrument approach oriented toward the model of "responsive regulation." According to this model, the law can no longer simply assume that those subject to the law will "obediently" execute the legal commands. It must ask itself what other factors determine behavior and under what boundary conditions changes can be expected in the direction of the desired behavior. For this reason, too, it must engage with the cognitive program of the behavioral sciences. This linkage opens up new perspectives for interdisciplinary research on the consequences of laws.

Profile of clients of different providers of family planning services in Egypt. Social Planning, Analysis & Administration Consultants (SPAAC), 1994. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/rh1994.1006.
Full textAbstract:
The Government of Egypt launched its national family planning (FP) program in 1966. The early phase was mainly supply oriented and aimed at ensuring wide distribution of contraceptives primarily through pharmacies to meet rising demand. Between 1988 and 1992 a number of additional sources of FP services appeared, with an increase in clinic-based services through both the private and public sectors. In 1992 about one-fourth of users relied on pharmacies to get their FP supplies compared to about one-half in 1988. This change evolved through the influence of two forces: the initiation of a number of FP projects, and expanded and improved FP services in Ministry of Health facilities. Because of these changes in the service delivery systems, senior program managers required information on current market segmentation to identify any overlap among activities of various service delivery systems. As noted in this report, this study assessed the complementary/competitive roles of these systems. It probes into factors that influence clients movements from one type of service provision to another, and their experience with services received. Six governorates were selected and sampled.
