Abstract:

This article examines the transformation of the Baye-fall movement (Baye-fallism, henceforth), a particular form of Senegalese Muridism, as it extends into the Senegalese diaspora. In particular, the article explores shifts in understandings of what it means to be a ‘good’ Baye-fall, as Senegalese migrants in Spain become confronted with hostility in their new social context, and as the need for spiritual engagement and community belonging intensifies. Starting with the origins of Baye-fallism as a Sufi heterodoxy in Senegal, the paper then focuses on Senegalese migrants in Lavapiés (Madrid, Spain) and in Granada (Andalusia, Spain). The central argument is that in this diasporic context, adhesion to Baye-fallism becomes more intense, and that the performance of Sufi orthodoxy takes on new meaning, which also informs discussions about being a ‘good’ Baye-fall in Senegal.

Abstract:

Today, the Rainbow Nation as the central metaphor for postapartheid South Africa falls short of serving as a unifying identification marker due to its tendency to gloss over contrasting living realities of diversified identities and ongoing systemic discrimination. The South African Fallism movements – the student-driven protests against neocolonial structures in academic institutions – spearheaded public criticism with the current state of ongoing social disparity in South Africa and revived the critique of so-called rainbowism, i.e., the belief that a colour-blind society can be created. In an application of Critical Discourse Analysis focusing on mythical metaphors, this article asks to what extent the new president Cyril Ramaphosa in his maiden State of the Nation Address projected a post-Zuma South African nation and answered to the challenges posed by Fallists.

Abstract:

Addressing contentious historical figures’ statues and heritages is an issue that perplexes many countries and generates polarised social debates. Taiwanese society has also had a long debate on how to appropriately handle statues of the country’s former leader, Chiang Kai-shek. What has become known as “fallism” has been quite prevalent worldwide in recent years. Several studies have attempted to delineate this trend in South Africa, Belgium, the UK, and Taiwan under the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) rule after 2016. However, no study thus far has focused on who truly makes the fall happen. In this study, the authors examine two Taiwanese cases—National Chengchi University and National Sun Yat-sen University, located in the north and south of Taiwan respectively—and explore these two universities’ experiences of decision-making with regard to the removal of Chiang’s statues. To do so, we examine both quantitative and qualitative data collected through participatory observation and voting results. This study aims to answer the fundamental question of who actually makes the statues fall. The findings of this study enrich the discussion of fallism in the current literature.

Abstract:

The recent growth of the ‘fallism’ movement, in conjunction with Black Lives Matter (BLM), has seen a surge in the number of plinths that stand vacant across South Africa, the United States and Europe since 2015. This article explores the theme of the empty plinth and interrogates what the significance of absence is. It asks what role empty plinths play in fomenting discussion about historical injustices? And, how these empty plinths can be reactivated or reclaimed in a way that attempts to recognize contested memories and ameliorate contemporary divisions along the lines of race, religion and ethnicity? It considers how the British, Ukrainian and Irish states and their civil societies have variously responded to the problem of what to do with monuments (and their empty pedestals) to individuals and regimes that are guilty of human rights abuses. To draw these conclusions, it looks in detail at three examples of monuments that have fallen over an extended time period and the responses to their empty pedestals: The Edward Colston statue in Bristol, United Kingdom (2020); the Bessarabska Lenin which precipitated the leninfall across Ukraine (2013) and Nelson’s Pillar in Dublin, Ireland (1966).

Abstract:

The impact of falls on patients and the burden of consequences due to falls on health care are increasing. A number of national and international organizations recognize this issue and efforts to better define, assess, and prevent falls are growing. While textbooks and research are available to guide clinicians in developing test protocols, this article aims to provide general tips and some practical discussion. A number of falls risk factors and their importance to an assessment will be reviewed. Potential screening methods with an estimation of their associated costs are also provided for each falls risk factor.

Abstract:

Abstract Previous falls and fear of falling (FoF) are risk factors that affect older adults’ daily activities. However, it remains unclear about their combined effects on functional limitations. Using Round 1 (R1) and Round 2 (R2) data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study, we examined whether falls and FoF in R1 independently and jointly predict functional limitations in R2 and the moderating role of demographic factors in this relationship among community-dwelling older adults aged 65 years and older. Previous falls and FoF were ascertained by asking participants whether they had fallen down in the last year and worried about falling in the last month. Functional limitations included any difficulties with mobility, self-care, or household activities. Poisson regression models were used to analyze data. Of 5,956 participants, 16.4% had falls only, 14.3% had FoF only, 14.5% had both, and 54.8% had neither. In the full adjusted model, those who experienced concurrent falls and FoF had a higher risk of functional limitations than those without falls and FoF (Mobility: Incidence risk ratio, IRR=1.44, 95% CI: 1.33-1.57; Self-care: IRR=1.29, 95% CI: 1.20-1.38; Household tasks: IRR=1.32, 95% CI: 1.21-1.44), as well as those with falls only (Mobility: IRR=1.32, 95% CI: 1.21-1.44; Self-care: IRR=1.26, 95% CI: 1.17-1.35; Household tasks: IRR=1.18, 95% CI: 1.08-1.29) and FoF only (Mobility: IRR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.27-1.51; Self-care: IRR=1.26, 95% CI: 1.17-1.35; Household tasks: IRR=1.31, 95% CI: 1.20-1.43). The findings suggest that strategies to improve falls and FoF together could potentially help prevent functional limitations.

Abstract:

Introduction: Recent evidence suggests that the effects of fear of falling on falls may differ by race/ethnicity. This study investigated whether race/ethnicity (white, black, and Hispanic) moderated the longitudinal effects of fear of falling on the incidence of falling and having a repeated fall among community-dwelling older adults. Methods: We used data from 2011 to 2018 of the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS). These included a total of 19,516 person-intervals from 5,113 respondents. Any self-reported fall in the past year was the outcome variable with baseline fear of falling as the predictor and race/ethnicity as the moderator. Covariates included self-reported sociodemographic information, probable depression, chronic conditions, functional impairment, pain, insomnia symptoms, the Clock Drawing Test, the Short Physical Performance Battery, and grip strength. Results: Among respondents who had no experience of falling at baseline, baseline fear of falling increased the odds of having a new onset of fall at 1-year follow-up significantly among blacks, compared to whites (odds ratio [OR] = 1.85, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.44–2.38). No significant difference was found for Hispanics. Among respondents who already fell at baseline, baseline fear of falling increased the odds of having a repeated fall at 1-year follow-up significantly among Hispanics, compared to whites (OR = 1.91, 95% CI = 1.06–3.44). No significant difference was found for blacks. Conclusions: Clear evidence of racial/ethnic differences was found in the relationship between fear of falling and falls among community-dwelling older adults in the USA. Special attention should be paid to black older adults with a fear of falling but have not fallen down recently and Hispanics with fear of falling and have fallen in the past year. Readily available educational programs should be actively advertised to older adults to reduce the fear of falling, and at the same time, culturally tailored educational programs should be developed for older adults from racial/ethnic minority backgrounds.

Abstract:

Background: People with multiple sclerosis (MS) fall frequently, and there are few clinically valid tools to measure the risk factors for falls. We assessed the unidimensionality of the 7-item Falls Efficacy Scale–International (FES-I), a measure of fear of falling, and determined whether the 7-item FES-I is associated with recurrent falls in people with MS. Methods: Falls were counted prospectively for 6 months using fall calendars in 58 people with MS (age, 18–50 years; Expanded Disability Status Scale score, 0–6). The FES-I was administered at baseline, and its unidimensionality was assessed by confirmatory factor analysis. The relationship between FES-I score and future falls, after adjusting for recurrent falls in the past year, was assessed by logistic regression. Results: Fifty-four participants who completed all assessments were included in the analysis. Goodness-of-fit indices confirmed a single-factor solution for the 7-item FES-I (discrepancy χ2, P = .101; Tucker-Lewis index, 0.953; comparative fit index, 0.969; root mean square error of approximation, 0.098). There was a significant association between fear of falling and falls in the following 3 months, independent of recurrent falls in the past year (odds ratio = 1.22, 95% confidence interval, 1.04–1.43, P = .016). Conclusions: The 7-item FES-I demonstrates good construct validity, allowing the total score to be used as a measure of fear of falling in people with MS. Fear of falling, as measured by the 7-item FES-I, is associated with future recurrent falls independent of past recurrent falls in people with MS.

Abstract:

Abstract Research suggests that the effects of fear of falling on falls may differ by race/ethnicity. We investigated whether race/ethnicity (White, Black, and Hispanic) moderated the longitudinal effects of fear of falling on the incidence of falling and having a repeated fall among community-dwelling older adults. We used data from 2011-2018 of the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS). These included a total of 19,516 person-intervals from 5,113 respondents. Self-reported any fall in the past year was the outcome variable with baseline fear of falling as the predictor and race/ethnicity as the moderator. Known risk factors for falls were included as covariates. Results showed that among respondents without the experience of falling at baseline, baseline fear of falling significantly increased the odds of a new-onset of fall at 1-year follow-up among Blacks, compared to Whites. Among respondents who already fell at baseline, baseline fear of falling significantly increased the odds of having a repeated fall later on among Hispanics, compared to Whites. Clear evidence of racial/ethnic differences was found in the relationship between fear of falling and falls among community-dwelling older adults in the U.S. Special attention should be paid to Black older adults with a fear of falling but have not fallen down recently and Hispanics with fear of falling and have fallen in the past year. Readily available educational programs should be actively advertised to older adults to reduce the fear of falling and culturally tailored educational programs should be developed for older adults from racial/ethnic minority backgrounds.
