Abstract:
A study was carried out from January to December 2012 among pig farming communities of Kathmandu and Morang districts of Nepal to determine knowledge regarding Japanese encephalitis (JE) disease. In this comparative study, 100 pig farmers were surveyed in each district Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) infection. The research observation revealed that the pig farming communities in both districts were poor, illiterate, having no training, highly dependent on pig farming occupation and some were landless. Comparatively, Kathmandu pig farmers had better education, training on pig farming and income status but less land ownership than Morang pig farmers. Male and female respondents were equal in Kathmandu and nearly equal in case of Morang district. There was significant difference (P<0.05) regarding knowledge of JE in two districts. In Kathmandu, 42% pig farmers were aware of JE while in Morang only 25% were having knowledge of it. Study district, literacy status and gender of pig farmers were significantly associated (P<0.05) with JE awareness. Literate farmers (41.5%) were more aware than illiterate (24.5%) and males (43.5%) were much aware than females (21.7%). There was also significant difference (P<0.05) between pig as vector for zoonotic disease and knowledge regarding JE.

Abstract:
Foundation is the part of all structure, which helps transmit the all the loads from above structure to the ground. The bearing capacity value mainly affected by two major factors, they are type of soil and also the location where the stratum. Due to various reasons such as; Economy, miser, unconsciousness etc, people don’t conduct soil test in many cases and starts to build high rise buildings in different locations. From the prevention of collapse and settlement of building bearing capacity of soil should be checked. Zonation mapping of bearing capacity is inevitable in many cases of newer and expansion storey construction. In many countries, zoning mapping of bearing capacity has been available for crowd or urbanized cities. In case of Nepal, there are absences of such zoning maps. The thesis report tries to fill such gap present in Nepal. Different bearing capacity has been found using different tests; SPT Value, Terzaghi, and among them least of the resulted value of bearing capacity is used for Zonation mapping of Morang district of Nepal. These targets are achieved by various data and tests conducted in the soil investigation with boring logs and SPT N value from 239 different locations and terrain around Morang District of Nepal. The methods initially adopted are collecting, selecting, grouping and plotting the data Location in Morang District map using GIS. Various analytical, experimental and theoretical approaches also used for the estimating and analyzing bearing capacity of soil. The research shows that the bearing capacity of soil of Morang ranges from 50kPa to 628kPa.

Abstract:
The objective of the study were to identify the variation in the physico chemical characteristics of dragon fruit species Hylocereus polyrhizus randomly collected from the four districts of Nepal namely., Chitwan, Sunsari, Morang and Sankhuwasabha. Physico - chemical observations were recorded immediately after harvest. Data were collected for fruit pulp, diameter, size, moisture content, dry matter content, pH, soluble solids, reducing sugar, ascorbic acid, titratable acidity and total carbohydrate. The results revealed that the fruit samples collected from Sunsari recorded the highest moisture content (86.81%) which was at par with samples from Sankhuwasabha (86.44%). Dry matter content ranged from 13-15 % among the fruits collected from all the four locations. Average fruit pH was found slightly acidic within the location variation with the highest pH value recorded in the samples collected from Chitwan (5.47). TSS value ranged from 11.7 to 14.70˚ Brix across the different sites. The fruits collected from Sunsari and Morang districts had a significantly trace amount of titratable acidity with an average of 0.57% while the rest of the fruits collected from other locations ranged from 0.6 – 0.7%. Ascorbic acid was found rich in the samples collected from the Sankhuwasabha district (7.80 mg-100g.). Reducing sugar was recorded maximum in fruits collected from Morang district (9.64 mg-100g). The highest carbohydrate content was recorded in the samples collected from Sunsari district (11.36 mg-100g). From the present investigation it can be concluded that the physico- chemical characteristics of Hylocereus polyrhizus showed differences in the results among the samples collected from the four different location.

Abstract:
Japanese Encephalitis (JE) a vector borne zoonoitc disease caused by arbovirus of Flavivirus and transmitted by Culex tritaeniorhynchus additionally pig acts as amplifying host for the virus. A total 115 swine serum samples 100 pig farmers from each district were tested against Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) infection. The collected samples were analyzed by using “Porcine Encephalitis B Virus Antibody Rapid Test Kit”. Among them 17% samples were positive for JE while 83% samples were negative for JE. Total 18% were positive for JE in Morang district while 115.4% were positive for Kathmandu district. There was no significant difference in prevalence of JE in these two districts (p>0.05). In Kathmandu, the prevalence was 15.4% while in Morang it was slightly higher, 18%. 9.5% younger pigs of 3-9 months of age were positive for JE and 20.6% of age above 9 months were positive of JE but were no significant (p>0.05). Similarly, 17.9% female pigs and 14.6% male pigs were positive for JE however difference was not significantly different. In case of breed, no association of pigs with seropositivity (p>0.05), 7 (13.5%) out of 52 local breed pigs and 12 (19.1%) out of 63 were JE positive. The prevalence rate of JEV was higher in Morang district among study area which might be due to several factors like lack of education in pig farmers, non vaccinated pig population and lack of awareness regarding risk factor of JEV.

Abstract:
The lower productivity and higher yield gaps in major cereals are the dominant problems of agriculture in eastern-terai of Nepal. Hence, field experiment was conducted to evaluate Nutrient Expert® wheat and maize model on farmer’s field at two sites each for maize and wheat in Morang and Jhapa district. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Completely Block Design replicated among twenty farmers in each district. Two treatments executed were NE (Nutrient Expert Recommendation) and FFP (Farmer Fertilizer Practices).The result revealed significant difference in terms of morphology, yield attributes and yield of wheat and maize. The highest wheat yield (4.71 ton ha-1) was obtained from NE followed by FFP (3.00 ton ha-1) in Jhapa and in Morang, was (4.01 ton ha-1) in NE followed by (2.05 ton ha-1) in FFP. In contrary, the higher maize yield (9.22 ton ha-1) was obtained from NE followed by FFP (4.94 ton ha-1) in Jhapa and (8.059 t ha-1)in Morang NE followed by FFP (4.52 ton ha-1). The net revenue of NE wheat in Morang was found to be increased by 344.799% while in maize the increment in net revenue of NE was only by 131.158% in Jhapa than in Morang. NE based practices produced significantly higher productivity and profitability in comparison with FFP.Int. J. Appl. Sci. Biotechnol. Vol 6(1): 45-52

O manejo inadequado do solo concorre para a sua degradação, bem como para a redução da viabilidade econômica do processo de produção agrícola. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a qualidade do solo e o desempenho econômico da cultura do morango na Região Administrativa de Brazlândia, Distrito Federal (DF), em sistemas de produção orgânico e convencional. Entre as olerícolas cultivadas no DF, o morango é uma das mais importantes no contexto socioeconômico, por ter um alto valor agregado e empregar muita mão-de-obra. Essa cultura é caracterizada por ser cultivada em canteiros cobertos com filme de polietileno e que são preparados mediante revolvimento intensivo do solo. Em função da exigência da cultura, há uma elevada entrada de nutrientes via fertilizantes sintéticos, estercos e compostos orgânicos. O estudo foi conduzido em três unidades de produção comercial de morango, localizadas em Brazlândia, e representativas dos sistemas de produção orgânico e convencionais adotados na região. Para avaliar a qualidade do solo foram selecionados indicadores de físicos (densidade do solo e estabilidade de agregados), químicos (matéria orgânica, CTC e condutividade elétrica) e biológicos (b-glicosidase e fosfatase-ácida), enquanto o desempenho econômico foi avaliado por meio de dados de custos de produção e de preços recebidos pelos produtores. Os valores observados para os indicadores físicos são, de maneira geral, considerados sustentáveis para Latossolos do Cerrado. Os teores de MO foram similares em todos os sistemas e a CTC foi superior ou ficou próxima ao limite crítico considerado sustentável. Em função da elevada aplicação de fertilizantes, a maior CE foi registrada para o sistema Conv2, mas não houve efeito deletério sobre a produtividade. A atividade das enzimas BG e FA, indica boa qualidade biológica do solo em todos os sistemas produtivos de morango. Em termos econômicos, o sistema orgânico de morango apresentou menor RB, mas foi 9,43% mais rentável do que o sistema convencional. ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
The inappropriate soil management contributes to its degradation, as well as to reduce the economic viability of the crop production. The objective of this study was to evaluate soil quality and economic performance of strawberry crop in Brazlândia, Distrito Federal (DF). Among the vegetable crops grown in the DF, strawberry is one of the most important at socio-economic context, by the high added value and labor. This crop is characterized by being cultivated in raised beds covered with polyethylene film and that are prepared by intensive soil tilling. According to requirement of the strawberry, there is a high input of fertilizer, manure and compost. The study was conducted in three commercial farms of strawberry, located in Brazlândia and representative of organic and conventional systems. In order to evaluate the soil quality were selected physical, chemical and biological indicators, while economic performance was evaluated using data of production costs and prices received by farmers. The values of physical indicators are generally considered sustainable for Cerrado Oxisols. The MO was similar in all systems and the CTC was higher or close to the critical limit considered sustainable. Due to the higher fertilizer input, the highest CE was found at the Conv2 system, but there was no negative impact in productivity. The activity of the BG and FA enzymes indicated good soil biological quality in all strawberry production systems evaluated. Regarding economical performance, the organic system had a lower RB, but was 9.43% more profitable than the conventional systems.

O gênero Colletotrichum reúne vários dos principais patógenos do morangueiro. Devido à sua agressividade elevada e a capacidade de infectar vários tecidos da planta, ocasionando antracnose, podridão da coroa e flor preta, o gênero é responsável por prejuízos econômicos constantes nas regiões produtoras. Várias espécies de Colletotrichum são associadas às doenças em diferentes partes da planta e sua identificação precisa é fundamental para a recomendação de estratégias de controle eficientes. No Brasil, apenas a espécie C. siamense já foi identificada utilizando uma abordagem molecular, não havendo informação sobre as espécies que ocorrem nas demais regiões produtoras, incluindo o Distrito Federal, onde o cultivo do morangueiro é uma atividade agrícola de considerável importância econômica. Assim, os objetivos desse trabalho foram: (i) determinar espécies de Colletotrichum que ocorrem no morangueiro com ênfase no Distrito Federal, Brasil; (ii) estabelecer as relações filogenéticas entre as espécies de Colletotrichum associadas aos diferentes tecidos da planta. Foram realizadas coletas de frutos, flores e coroas de morangueiro apresentando sintomas típicos da infecção por Colletotrichum em propriedades de Brazlândia e Recanto das Emas no Distrito Federal; Atibaia em São Paulo; São Francisco de Paula no Rio Grande do Sul; Castelo e Domingos Martins, no Espírito Santo; Goianápolis e Padre Bernardo, no Goiás. Foram obtidos 52 isolados de Colletotrichum spp. dos quais o DNA total foi extraído. A amplificação e sequenciamento da região gênica GAPDH foi realizado para todos isolados para identificação prévia. As regiões gênicas ITS e β-tubulina de nove isolados representativos foram amplificadas e sequenciadas para identificação e análise filogenética. Foram identificadas as espécies C. nymphaeae e C. tamarilloi, sendo este o primeiro relato de C. nymphaeae causando antracnose e flor preta em morangueiro no Brasil e o primeiro relato de C. tamarilloi associado ao morangueiro no mundo. Quatro isolados pertencentes ao complexo C. acutatum não puderam ser inequivocamente identificados ao nível de espécie.
The genus Colletotrichum gathers several of the main strawberry pathogens due to the genus high aggressiveness and the ability to infect several plant tissues, causing anthracnose, crown rot and flower blight, and is responsible for constant economic losses in the growing regions worldwide. Several species of Colletotrichum are associated with strawberry diseases in different parts of the plant, and thus, the precise identification of Colletotrichum is essential for the recommendation of efficient control strategies and reduction of residues of agrochemicals in the commercialized fruits. Therefore, the objectives of this project are (i) to determine the species of Colletotrichum occurring in the strawberry plants in Brazil, with emphasis in the Distrito Federal; (ii) to establish the phylogenetic and pathogenicity relationships among Colletotrichum genotypes associated with different plant tissues. Fruit, flowers and strawberry crowns showing typical symptoms of Colletotrichum infection were collected in growing properties in the administrative regions Brazlândia and Recanto das Emas in Distrito Federal; in the municipalities of Atibaia in São Paulo; São Franciso de Paula in Rio Grande do Sul; Castelo and Domingos Martins, in Espírito Santo; and Goianápolis and Padre Bernardo, in Goiás. In total, 50 isolates were obtained and had genomic DNA extracted. The amplification and sequencing of the GAPDH gene region of all the isolates was performed in order to carry out the preliminar identification. The ITS and β-tubulin gene regions of nine representative isolates were amplified and sequenced for more detailed identification and phylogenetic analysis. The species C. nymphaeae and C. tamarilloi were identified and associated with strawberry symptoms in the evaluated regions, representing the first report of C. nymphaeae causing anthracnose and flower blight in strawberry in Brazil and the first worldwide report of C. tamarilloi associated with strawberry to science. It was not possible to accurately identify four isolates of C. acutatum complex, which may belong to the species C. paranaense, C. costaricense or C. limetticola.

Abstract:

This descriptive research study was conducted to determine the state of perceived teacher morale and student academic performance as measured by fourth-grade reading and math scores among four elementary schools defined by the servant leadership score of each principal in this Florida elementary school district. While related research from other geographical areas was identified and published, the aim of this study was to describe the current state of these variables in the southeastern United States. Four elementary principals and 153 elementary teachers participated in this study. The Revised Servant Leadership Profile 360 survey (RSLP 360) was used to obtain the principals' perceptions of servant leadership based on the criteria from the survey to categorize the four schools as servant or non-servant leadership-led schools, and the Purdue Teacher Opinionaire survey (PTO) was used to collect the teachers' perceptions of morale. Fourth-grade Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) scores in mathematics and reading were retrieved from the Florida Department of Education database and used as the third variable in this study. The intent of this research was not to define relationships between servant leadership, teacher morale, and student test scores, but to describe the extent to which these variables existed based on the perceptions of the survey participants and state test scores for this school district in Florida. The results from this study may be used for future research and practices to further examine the active and potential status of servant leadership, teacher morale, and student academic performance outcomes in PreK-12 education.

It proposes the concept of tourismship to rethink identity in tourism and introduces the idea of moral work to understand people's repositioning in Poland and Germany, twenty-five years after the breakdown of socialism. A question that so far has been marginal in the academic discussion of post-socialist moralities concerns the relationship between being a moral person and living well. This research is situated in a popular tourism destination in the Northeast of Poland, where increasing inequality and social injustice are part of people's everyday experience. It is in tourism that people are confronted with the tensions between living well and being a moral person at the same time. In this thesis I argue that in tourism people find a space to address these tensions. The notion of moral work illuminates the diverse ways in which they engage with the tensions that ultimately concern the good life. Based on 13 months of participant observation and interviews in the Masurian Lake District, the moral debates of four ethnographic settings are explored: How to be a good host in rural Masuria? How to be a good sailing tourist in the "New Poland"? How to be a good German in Germany's former East? How to correctly engage with the materiality of a ruptured past? To understand the nature of these debates the concept of tourismship is introduced: tourismship transcends the host-guest binary and draws attention to the complex identity work done in tourism. It accommodates the multiple identities that are at stake in these touristic debates. This thesis provides extensive ethnographic insights into the reordering of post-socialist (tourism) societies in Masuria. It offers a fresh look at tourism in Europe as a changing set of cultural and social practises, the historical legacies of which extend into the present. Tourism as a setting for moral work makes us think about the ways in which people make sense of tourism experiences, and how they integrate those experiences into their social and cultural identities. Ideas of the good life, good tourism, and being moral person are shown to diverge, even in the very communities in which they are debated. Tourism in Masuria provides new insights into a broader social process of moral diversification and pluralisation across post-Cold War societies, showing that moral dilemmas run across society and do not only affect post-socialist but also former "Western" societies. Finally, this thesis shows that debates about morality and the good life in tourism must be seen in the context of emerging power relations and inequalities in these societies.

Abstract:
Comparative analyses of district-run public schools and charter schools are limited to performance outcomes. There is a dearth of research on how the school-types vary on factors consequential to performance such as school climate. Public-private distinctions, such as in organizational autonomy, value orientations, funding structures, and management practices, could result in school climate dissimilarities between district-run public schools and charter schools. The aim of this dissertation is to assess the influence organizational factors have on school climate and determine if school-type affects school climate. Student and staff school climate survey data from the Miami-Dade school district were utilized for this dissertation. Structural equation modeling was employed to test theoretical models of students’ and staffs’ perceptions of school climate using data from 2001-2002 through 2015-2016 academic years. Within-between effects panel regression was utilized to test the effect of school-type on school climate constructs over time using data from 2005-2006 through 2015-2016 academic years. The structural equation results demonstrate that milieu, ecology, culture, and organizational structure influence students’ and staffs’ perceptions of their schools’ climates. Ecology has the strongest association with students’ perceptions of school climate. Job satisfaction, a part of milieu and culture, has the strongest association with staffs’ perceptions of school climate. The results indicate that the theoretical models of school climate employed by this study are sound. The within-between effects panel regression results demonstrate that characteristics inherent to school-type have a plausible influence on students’ perceptions of school climate, but not for staff. Charter school students rated their school climates more favorably than traditional public schools, but when other factors are controlled, traditional public schools and magnet schools had more favorable ratings. Public-sector values, collective bargaining, and school district oversight may be beneficial to schools’ climates. This dissertation underscores the impact management and funding structures have on school climate. The author recommends that the school climate concept and evaluations of schools’ organizational practices be incorporated into school improvement policies. The milieu, culture, ecology, and organizational structures of schools should be reviewed when assessing school quality.

O tráfico de drogas é segunda maior economia global. Após a reorganização produtiva do capital, em resposta a crise global do capitalismo dos anos 70, passa-se a empregar cada vez mais a força de trabalho de crianças e adolescentes, significando uma ampliação mundial do trabalho infantil. No narcotráfico especificamente, o aumento do emprego de força de trabalho infantojuvenil é associado às mudanças no comércio de drogas nos anos 80 com a chegada da cocaína no mercado de varejo e a generalização do tráfico de crack. Essas transformações, além de ampliarem o número de crianças e adolescentes vinculados a essa economia, implicaram na reestruturação das relações de trabalho delas e na vinculação dos trabalhadores com suas comunidades. Frente a essa realidade, às políticas sociais de enfrentamento ao trabalho infantil são inoperantes em relação tanto a proteção, quanto a educação desses jovens trabalhadores. Essas políticas tomam significados unilaterais e imagens cristalizadas sobre esse trabalho, dificultando o desenvolvimento de políticas de enfrentamento efetivas. Buscando contribuir com políticas reais de enfrentamento, esse trabalho analisa a estrutura e a dinâmica do sentido do trabalho no tráfico de drogas vivenciado por crianças e adolescentes que trabalham ou já trabalharam nesse mercado, apresentando conceitos-chave para propostas educacionais que abordem especificidades desse público. Esta pesquisa se ancora no método do materialismo histórico dialético e se utilizou para coleta de dados entrevista semi-estruturada com jovens moradores do Distrito Federal que tiveram vivência no tráfico quando crianças ou adolescentes. Também foi realizada pesquisa bibliográfica acerca da estrutura e dinâmica do narcotráfico e levantamento teóricoconceitual sobre as metamorfoses do trabalho na modernidade e suas relações com a educação. Para tratamento dos sentidos do trabalho, foi utilizado o método hermenêutico-dialético e para análise dos dados foi utilizada a técnica da triangulação de dados. A partir dessa investigação mostramos que a inserção precoce de crianças e adolescentes no mercado de trabalho de forma exploradora gera um reflexo fragmentado dessa atividade no psiquismo e, especificamente no caso do narcotráfico, a fragmentação de sentido se relaciona com o próprio mascaramento dessa atividade como trabalho – seja por sua estrutura de organização produtiva no modelo da acumulação flexível operada por meio do tráfico fragmentado de crack, seja pela ideologia da marginalidade que reveste o tráfico de uma imagem contrainstitucional e isola o trabalhador. Assim, apontamos que para que se torne possível a constituição de espaços de aprendizagem, a educação precisa romper com o isolamento do trabalhador do mundo, a fragmentação da personalidade e a desagregação comunitária. _______________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
Drug trafficking is the second largest global economy. After the productive reorganization in response to the '70s capitalism global crisis, the children and teenagers workforce employment has increased, meaning a global child labor expansion. In drug trafficking specifically, children and teenagers workforce increased is associated with changes in the drug trade in the ‘80s with the cocaine arrival in the retail market and the crack cocaine traffic widespread. These transformations, as well as expand several children and teenagers from this economy, resulted in the labor relations restructuring in them and tying workers to their communities. Facing this reality, the social policies addressed for child labor are irrelevant about both protection and education of these young workers. These policies take unilateral meanings and candied images on this work, hindering an effective social policies development. Seeking to contribute to real confrontation social policies, this paper analyzes the labour sense structure and dynamics in drug trafficking experienced by children and adolescents who works or have worked in this market, presenting key concepts for educational proposals addressing specificities. This research is grounded in historical materialism dialectical method and for the data collection we used semi-structured interviews with young Federal District residents who had experience drug trafficking when children or teenagers. It was also done bibliographic research on the drug trafficking structure and dynamics and theoretical-conceptual survey of the works metamorphoses in modernity and its relationship with education. For the labour senses treatment, we used the hermeneutic-dialectic method and for data analysis we used the data triangulation technique. From this research, we show that early children and teenagers integration in the labor market in a exploitative way generates a fragmented reflection of this activity in the psyche and specifically in the drug trafficking case, the senses fragmentation relates to the masking itself as this activity work - either byproductive organization structure in the flexible accumulation model operated through fragmented trafficking crack, either by the marginality ideology that covers trafficking, that rejects institutional image and isolates the worker. Thus, we point out that to make possible a learning spaces creation, education needs to break the isolation between the world and the worker, the personality fragmentation and community breakdown.

Abstract:
The primary aim of this study was to explore primary school teachers’ experiences that influence their morale in Bohlabela District, Mpumalanga Province in order to improve practice and create a suitable environment for effective teaching and learning. The aim was achieved by exploring teachers’ experiences, identifying factors which influence the morale of teachers and developing strategies which could be applied to motivate teachers in their profession. The empirical inquiry was informed by behaviourism as a theoretical framework as well as the extant literature on teachers’ morale. The study applied an interpretive paradigm which is qualitative in nature to collect and analyse teachers’ subjective but accurate accounts of their opinions, experiences and perceptions regarding their morale. A case study was opted as the research design method and purposive sampling was used to identify 12 poorly performing rural primary schools and to select information- rich 36 teacher participants, all of who were teaching Grade 6 Mathematics and English. The primary data gathering technique was focus group interviews with teachers. Data extracted from the participants were augmented, supported, confirmed and corroborated by observations. Data were analysed using a thematic data analysis approach. Data were segmented and inductively coded into three main themes which served as the main empirical research findings. The first theme of this study dealt with experiences that influence teachers’ morale which included boredom, frustrations, lack of professional development and feelings of neglect and violence.InIn this theme it was found that experiences such as boredom, lack of professional development, feelings of neglect and school violence negatively affected the morale of teachers. The second theme comprised factors that affect teachers’ morale which included personal factors; work related factors and socio-economic factors. Personal factors and work related factors were also found to play a negative role in the morale of teachers. The third theme comprised intervention strategies to enhance teachers’ morale which included improved communication, family support, safety in schools and parental involvement. Based on the findings of the literature review and the empirical investigation, recommendations were made for the improvement of practice. It was concluded in this study that low teacher morale is a challenge in the schooling systems globally including South Africa. The study further concluded that low teacher morale negatively affects both teachers’ and learners’ productivity. As a way of mitigating problems associated with low teacher morale, it was recommended that the Department of Education should prioritise the issue of consulting teachers as an important component when developing professional development programmes aimed at assisting teachers, this is thought will assist in identifying problem areas which affect the work of teachers which ultimately affects their morale.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the “personalistic bias” argument against taking characters as moral agents, and argues that although the argument identifies a real concern, to fail to see fictional characters as moral agents does more harm than good. The most salient objection against taking fictional characters as moral agents is that it distracts viewers from politics, institutions, systems, and contexts. The chapter argues that the personal is political, in that the representation of a fictional character can become a “public mythology” with significant cultural influence. Paying attention to characters as moral agents is also important because the representation of individual characters in a narrative context elicits emotions in relation to narrative paradigm scenarios, and those emotional responses have significant cultural importance.

Abstract:
Protestants criticized prostitution because it threatened the family and ultimately civil society, and the Watch and Ward Society devised a campaign to shut down Boston’s red-light districts. These Protestant elites espoused traditional gender roles and Victorian sexual mores and endorsed the “cult of domesticity.” In the late nineteenth century, a number of reform organizations turned their attention to the “social evil,” as it was popularly called. The Watch and Ward Society’s quest to reduce prostitution placed it squarely within the larger international anti-prostitution movement. Moral reformers resisted all forms of policy that officially sanctioned or tacitly tolerated prostitution, instead arguing for its abolition. Their attempt to suppress commercialized sex eventually collapsed because of the lack of public support.

Abstract:
Freemasonry is one of the world’s oldest, most widespread voluntary organizations. With a strong sense of liberation, moral enlightenment, cosmopolitan openness, and forward-looking philanthropy, freemasonry has attracted some of the sharpest minds in history and created a strong platform for nascent civil societies worldwide. With the secrecy of internally communicated knowledge, its clandestine character, the enactment of rituals, and elaborate use of symbols, freemasonry has also opened up feelings of distrust, along with allegations of secretiveness and conspiracy. Freemasonry: A Very Short Introduction introduces the organization, rituals, and symbols of freemasonry, navigating through the prevalent fictions and conspiracy theories. It also sheds light on the participation of women in freemasonry.

Full text
Abstract:
Over the last decade, scholars have devoted significant attention to making climate change communication more effective but less attention to ensuring that it is ethical. This neglect risks blurring the distinction between persuasion and manipulation, generating distrust among audiences, and obscuring the conceptual resources needed to guide communicators.Three prevailing approaches to moral philosophy can illuminate various ethical considerations involved in communicating climate change. Consequentialism, which evaluates actions as morally right or wrong according to their consequences, is the implicit moral framework shared by many social scientists and policymakers interested in climate change. While consequentialism rightly emphasizes the consequences of communication, its exclusive focus on the effectiveness of communication tends to obscure other moral considerations, such as what communicators owe to audiences as a matter of duty or respect. Deontology better captures these duties and provides grounds for communicating in ways that respect the rights of citizens to deliberate and decide how to act. But because deontology tends to cast ethics as an abstract set of universalizable principles, it often downplays the virtues of character needed to motivate action and apply principles across a variety of contexts. Virtue ethics seeks to overcome the limits of both consequentialism and deontology by focusing on the virtues that individuals and communities need to flourish. While virtue ethics is often criticized for failing to provide a concrete blueprint for action, its conception of moral development and thick vocabulary of virtues and vices offer a robust set of practical and conceptual resources for guiding the actions, attitudes, and relationships that characterize climate change communication. Ultimately, all three approaches highlight moral considerations that should inform the ethics of communicating climate change.

AbstractSince 2016, hundreds of Chinese migrants selling sexual services in Paris have been the target of systematic control operations by the police, whose clear objective is to “sweep” prostitution out of some neighbourhoods. In reaction to these measures, a group of Chinese women organized their own collective, The Steel Roses (Les Roses d’Acier), and asked the local government to better prevent violence against sex workers, rather than fight sex workers themselves. By doing so, they tried to embody political agency, and asked for the local government to include them as part of the “local diversity” and as legitimate city users. In a context of local gentrification, where diversity is presented as an important characteristic of these multicultural neighborhoods, such a mobilization by migrant sex workers underlines the ongoing controversy around the definition of diversity, as well as controversy in terms of who is legitimate to embody urban imaging. This chapter proposes to describe the controversy launched by the Chinese sex workers in some districts of Paris as another case study of the ways political power relations contribute to the definition of what is diversity and who belongs to a city defined in terms of cosmopolitanism.

Abstract:
The shutdown of red-light districts between the Progressive era and the Depression was in fact a police-driven relocation of vice to Black neighborhoods. Police deployed their discretionary power to channel the flow of an urban faucet, permitting the inundation of white men into Black neighborhoods, aggressively policing white women’s sociability, and erratically targeting Black women for morals offenses. Police had helped to erect Black vice districts and during Prohibition they enforced morals violations (or withheld enforcement for a fee) on the same streets, creating a doubled segregation: segregated vice and racially segregated Black residents. This transformation set the twentieth-century log and practice of urban policing in motion. The enduring preoccupation with white female purity had an impact on the ways that Black women were policed. The criminalization of white women, especially those engaging in interracial socialization, brought the full weight of the Progressive-era criminal apparatus to bear on Black neighborhoods through the Depression.

Abstract West Coast Hotel v. Parrish In 1937, a Washington minimum wage statute virtually identical to the statute struck down in Adkins came before the Court in West Coast Hotel v. Parrish. Like the 1918 District of Columbia statute, the Washington statute was grounded in the police power. Section 1 of the statute declared that “The welfare of the State of Washington demands that women and minors be protected from conditions of labor which have a pernicious effect on their health and morals,” and that “inadequate wages and unsanitary conditions of labor exert such pernicious effect.” Section 2 made it unlawful to employ women or minors “under conditions of labor detrimental to their health or morals,” and to employ women “at wages which are not adequate for their maintenance.” Section 3 created a commission, which was to establish “such standards of wages and conditions of labor for women and minors ... as shall be held hereunder to be reasonable and not detrimental to health and morals, and which shall be sufficient for the decent maintenance of women.” Elsie Parrish, a chambermaid employed by the West Coast Hotel Company, had been paid less than the wage prescribed by the state commission. When she sued to recover the difference due her under state law, the hotel company contended that the Washington statute violated the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

Abstract The scale of 20th-century conflicts led to civilians becoming strategic targets. The morale of a populace, the industrial output of a city, and the agricultural production of a farming district were all vital to protracted, large-scale warfare. The horrific toll on noncombatants from the German Blitzkrieg, Allied bombing, and V-1 rocket attacks in the European theater was not lost on the Japanese, who needed no excuse to attack the Chinese populace, but welcomed the implicit acceptance of such tactics by the international community and the opportunity to further test the moral waters. The Japanese began using poison gas against the Chinese in 1937 as a military tactic that also served as a probe of political sensitivities.1 When compelling evidence of chemical warfare was brought to the League of Nations in 1939, nothing was done.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the social and political effects of air raids on German morale during World War II. The strategic aerial bombing of Nazi Germany had increased to such an extent during the last twelve months that approximately 65,000 people were, at tbe time of the report, bombed out of their homes each week. The number of unusable destroyed houses in April 1944 totaled 1,600,000 in the Reich and the protected areas. A large number of the great industrial centers of Germany, such as Berlin, Hamburg, Bremen, the Ruhr district, Rostock, Hannover, Leipzig, Mannheim-Ludwigshafen, Stuttgart, Brunswick, Kassel, and Wiener-Neustadt had been severely damaged. The chapter considers the impact of the bombings on Germany's local defense program, the emergency relief measures implemented after the raids, problems of evacuation, the Nazi Party's propaganda reply to the raids, and how the bombings affected the German people, including the middle classes and workers.

Abstract:
The main goal of this study is an analysis of statistical and spatial relationships between land cover, relief and geodetic control points’ location. We aimed at proving the previous results showing that in rural areas the density of horizontal geodetic points depends at least 50% on the land cover. Moreover, two clustering methods, k-means and Kohonen self-organising maps, were used to group surveying districts according to similarity in land use, relief and geodetic control density. The research methods includes statistical methods, ie. Pearson correlation and coefficient of determination computed by Pawlowski method as well as spatial autocorrelation expressed by Moran I global index. The results show that both clustering methods give very similar results, however for the k-means the surveying districts are more spatially clustered, than for Kohonen. The coefficient of determination R2 equals 0.652, what means that geodetic control points density in 65.2% explains by the percentage of built-up areas, forests and the standard deviation of elevation. The analysis was conducted for the 3rd order geodetic control points, for Opoczno district, located in the central part of Poland.

Abstract:
Spiritual patron of the gymnasium from Obreja Veche, the folklorist Sergiu Moraru honors his mission ‒ in relation to the young generation ‒ through the model of his becoming and through the opera. The vocation folklorist needs vocation pedagogues, who can adjust the potential of the biography and the work in attractive projects for the pupils of the gymnasium that bears his name, but also for those from the Gymnasium no. 1 from Olacu commune, Giurgiu district (Romania). To motivating them to know more about the museums and libraries in the locality ‒ the patrimonial dimension of their existence, in which Sergiu Moraru’s destiny is a kind of guide. The attractive reason for becoming a folklorist is the reason for vocation, calling, crucial categories, generating controversy and lessons according to the age of the two institutions united in a project. The beneficial nuance, offered from Italy by the poet and pedagogue Iurie Bojoncă, refers to the importance of the family and the native village that knows traditions and customs.

Abstract:
Nowadays corruption becomes a universal phenomenon, which reduces the productivity of public administration, and causes harm to countries’ economic and social development. Consequently, it influences economic performance of Kyrgyzstan. The aim of this study is to visualize the spatial distribution of subjective well-being levels of individuals and personal perceptions and attitude towards corruption in 2016 by using the data provided by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development on district (rayon) level in Kyrgyzstan. The findings of this paper show that there is positive spatial autocorrelation for unofficial payments or gifts to road police, public education, and receive medical treatments. Similarly, local government representatives, tax officials, police and judges have higher Moran’s I scores. In addition, obtained results from analysis will help to understand issues related to corruption in Kyrgyzstan.

Abstract:
This piece brings four authors, John Voiklis, Laura Niemi, Michelle Ciurria, and Uduak Grace Thomas, into conversation about definitions of trust from different academic disciplines. Voiklis highlights criteria required for trust that draw on literature from multiple sources, including human-robot interactions. Writing from a feminist perspective, Ciurria notes that asymmetrical patriarchal relationships and a contractual approach to trust actually foster distrust between individuals. In turn, that distrust transfers to governments and institutions, including those responsible for science. While hierarchical relationships do not always result in mistrust, for the authors, institutional trust depends at least in part on historical practices and positions. For example, Harriet Washington has written eloquently about the history of abuse and violence towards communities of color perpetuated by scientific institutions, some of which continues to this day. Referencing prior research around trust in zoos and aquariums, Thomas and Voiklis argue that benevolence is the missing link in institutional trust. Meanwhile, Niemi reminds readers not to discount the specificity underlying different issues and the types of institutional actors implicated in each. For example, she questions whether judgments about pharmaceutical companies are made on the same basis as those about zoos.

Criado em 1950, durante a gestão do então prefeito do antigo Distrito Federal, o general Ângelo Mendes de Moraes (1894-1990), o Instituto de Belas Artes (IBA) objetivava o ensino das artes plásticas na cidade e tinha “como finalidade promover a educação popular, a formação de quadros profissionais, técnicos e desenvolver, pela difusão, a cultura em todos os seus aspectos, além de educar o gosto daqueles que manifestem apreciável vocação artística”. O IBA oferecia cursos gratuitos de Pintura, Escultura, Gravura, Artes da Prensa, Arte Decorativa, Arte Cenográfica e Cenografia. A primeira sede provisória do IBA, cuja inauguração deu-se em 18 de janeiro de 1951, foi a Escola Minas Gerais (localizada na Avenida Pasteur, nº433, Urca).

Community-Responsive Education Policies and the Question of Optimality: Decentralisation and District-Level Variation in Policy Adoption and Implementation in Indonesia. Research on Improving Systems of Education (RISE), August 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.35489/bsg-rise-wp_2022/108.

Abstract:
Decentralisation, or devolving authority to the third tier of government to prioritise specific policy reforms and manage their implementation, is argued to lead to pro-poor development for a number of reasons: local bureaucrats can better gauge the local needs, be responsive to community demands, and, due to physical proximity, can be more easily held accountable by community members. In the education sector, devolving authority to district government has thus been seen as critical to introducing reforms aimed at increasing access and improving learning outcomes. Based on fieldwork with district-level education bureaucracies, schools, and communities in two districts in the state of West Java in Indonesia, this article shows that decentralisation has indeed led to community-responsive policy-development in Indonesia. The district-level education bureaucracies in both districts did appear to prioritise community preferences when choosing to prioritise specific educational reforms from among many introduced by the national government. However, the optimality of these preferences could be questioned. The prioritised policies are reflective of cultural and religious values or immediate employment considerations of the communities in the two districts, rather than being explicitly focused on improving learning outcomes: the urban district prioritised degree completion, while the rural district prioritised moral education. These preferences might appear sub-optimal if the preference is for education bureaucracies to focus directly on improving literacy and numeracy outcomes. Yet, taking into account the socio-economic context of each district, it becomes easy to see the logic dictating these preferences: the communities and the district government officials are consciously prioritising those education policies for which they foresee direct payoffs. Since improving learning outcomes requires long-term commitment, it appears rational to focus on policies promising more immediate gains, especially when they aim, indirectly and implicitly, to improve actual learning outcomes. Thus, more effective community mobilisation campaigns can be developed if the donor agencies funding them recognise that it is not necessarily the lack of information but the nature of the local incentive structures that shapes communities’ expectations of education. Overall, decentralisation is leading to more context-specific educational policy prioritisation in Indonesia, resulting in the possibility of significant district-level variation in outcomes. Further, looking at the school-level variation in each district, the paper shows that public schools ranked as high performing had students from more privileged socio-economic backgrounds and were catering for communities that had more financial resources to support activities in the school, compared with schools ranked as low performing. Thus, there is a gap to bridge within public schools and not just between public and private schools.

Abstract:
Focus on decentralisation as a way to improve service delivery has led to significant research on the processes of education-policy adoption and implementation at the district level. Much of this research has, however, focused on understanding the working of the district education bureaucracies and the impact of increased community participation on holding teachers to account. Despite recognition of the role of political elites in prioritising investment in education, studies examining this, especially at the district-government level, are rare. This paper explores the extent and nature of engagement of political elites in setting the education-reform agenda in two districts in the state of West Java in Indonesia: Karawang (urban district) and Purwakarta (rural district). The paper shows that for a country where the state schooling system faces a serious learning crisis, the district-level political elites do show considerable levels of engagement with education issues: governments in both districts under study allocate higher percentages of the district-government budget to education than mandated by the national legislation. However, the attitude of the political elites towards meeting challenges to the provision of good-quality education appears to be opportunistic and tokenistic: policies prioritised are those that promise immediate visibility and credit-taking, help to consolidate the authority of the bupati (the top political position in the district-government hierarchy), and align with the ruling party’s political positioning or ideology. A desire to appease growing community demand for investment in education rather than a commitment to improving learning outcomes seems to guide the process. Faced with public pressure for increased access to formal employment opportunities, the political elites in the urban district have invested in providing scholarships for secondary-school students to ensure secondary school completion, even though the district-government budget is meant for primary and junior secondary schools. The bupati in the rural district, has, on the other hand, prioritised investment in moral education; such prioritisation is in line with the community's preferences, but it is also opportunistic, as increased respect for tradition also preserves reverence for the post of the bupati—a position which was part of the traditional governance system before being absorbed into the modern democratic framework. The paper thus shows that decentralisation is enabling communities to make political elites recognise that they want the state to prioritise education, but that the response of the political elites remains piecemeal, with no evidence of a serious commitment to pursuing policies aimed at improving learning outcomes. Further, the paper shows that the political culture at the district level reproduces the problems associated with Indonesian democracy at the national level: the need for cross-party alliances to hold political office, and resulting pressure to share the spoils. Thus, based on the evidence from the two districts studied for this paper, we find that given the competitive and clientelist nature of political settlements in Indonesia, even the district level political elite do not seem pressured to prioritise policies aimed at improving learning outcomes.

Abstract:
Schools routinely face federal and state mandated changes, like the Common Core State Standards or standardized testing requirements. Sometimes districts and schools want to take on new policies and practices of their own, like anti-bullying programs or using technology to deliver instruction. Regardless of the origin of the change, implementation requires them to take on additional work; yet experts estimate that only 30 to 50 percent of major change efforts in organizations will succeed. Failing change efforts result in not only financial losses but also lowered organizational morale, wasted resources, and lost opportunities. For schools where resources are already stretched thin, the consequences of failed change initiatives can be particularly devastating. In this paper, we discuss results of a study, over a school year, of school principals who were working on implementing a new change initiative in their schools. We apply lessons from the change management literature and focus on the importance of assessing readiness for change as a key step in ensuring the success of new initiatives. We share examples of a change readiness rubric to help schools and districts successfully lead change.
