"Błąd krymski" jako efekt myślenia grupowego? Polska wobec aneksji Krymu w 2014 roku

Author(s): Agnieszka Orzelska-Stączek / Language(s): Polish Issue: 39/2015

The ease with which Russia managed to surprise the political elites of the West with the events of early 2014 is dumbfounding. On the eve of the annexation of the Crimea, no one in the public space in Poland warned against the upcoming turn in the policies of Moscow. Representatives of the highest Polish authorities responsible for the security and foreign policy were clearly surprised with the developments. Undoubtedly, the “Crimean error” indicates that information that had been flowing from Russia for a long time was ignored as it did not fit into the policy adopted by the Polish authorities. From today's perspective, multiple signals can be indicated about the upcoming profound changes in the immediate environment of Polish security.When examining why the Polish authorities did not notice the upcoming shift in the politics of Russia, we should take into account the group thinking syndrome, described by Irving Janis. In this approach, group members try to minimize conflict and reach a consensus decision without critical evaluation of alternative viewpoints. This term has gained popularity in social psychology, but has also provided important research tools for the analysis of foreign policy, treated as a separate area in the context of international relations.

"Važno je imati moćnog vođu!" Analiza autoritarnosti u hrvatskom društvu od 1999. do 2018. godine

Author(s): Krunoslav Nikodem / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 3/2019

The primary goal of this paper is the analysis of authoritarianism in Croatian society which is based on the results from the European Values Study. In a theoretical sense, we are following Bob Altemeyer’s concept of authoritarianism, which is defined as the combination of three attitudinal clusters–authoritarian submission, authoritarian aggression and conventionalism (Altemeyer, 1988). The analysis is divided into two parts. In the first part we analyse separately eight particles which comprise our authoritarian construct with the basic socio-demographic characteristics for the year 2018. In the second part we use the authoritarianism index as criterion for the three-predictor model (socio-demographic characteristics, religiosity and trust). On the basic level, the results show an increase of those who consider that having a strong leader is good and that it would be a good thing to have greater respect for authority in the near future. Further analysis shows that a lower level of education, the importance of God in life, and trust in the Church are the most important predictors for authoritarianism in Croatian society.

"По-русски говорите": сообщение информации и обратная связь во взаимодействии врача-генетика и Пациента

Author(s): Aleksandr Shirokov / Language(s): Russian Issue: 2/2019

The article is devoted to the analysis of interactions between geneticists and patients through the perspectives of ethnomethodology and conversation analysis. The focus of the research is on how geneticists deliver medical information to their patients and how patients are involved in this process. The primary data are audio recordings and ethnographic observations of genetic counseling sessions conducted in July–December 2018. The study also uses materials from interviews with geneticists and from genetics textbooks that deal with issues of patient-provider communication. The author criticizes some features characteristic of the research on “information delivery” in a medical context. First, such studies are often one-sided: although they analyze how the patient understands information and what it means to him/her, the patient is represented as a passive recipient of information. This article, conversely, argues that the patient is also an active participant in the process of formulating information through various kinds of promptings, clarifications, and responses. Thus, communication of information is a joint achievement of doctor and patient. Secondly, when analyzing information delivery, various expressions, for example, “yes,” “aha,” “ooh,” and such, are considered signals of epistemic status change in conversation analysis. That is, it is assumed that these are signals that the recipient has received the information and understood the message. The question of which part of the message the recipient understood is hardly addressed. This article highlights a specific feature of the interaction between geneticist and patients: the difficulty of achieving mutual understanding. For the doctor, a description of the patient’s condition and his/her diagnosis is “packed” into abstract medical concepts, the explanation of which is problematic during the consultation process. Hence the difficulty of reaching an understanding, which happens either when the doctor himself/ herself begins to use everyday language or when the patient begins to ask for clarification in everyday language (although this can lead to tension). Using medical terms, the doctor gives a report, but it does not explain everything to the patient, and because of the problematic nature of the demonstration of misunderstanding, the patient has almost no way to tell the doctor about it.

(No) future music?

Author(s): Simon Reynolds / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2020

One of the many memorable memes and thought slogans associated with the late theorist Mark Fisher is ‘‘the slow cancellation of the future.’’ What does this evocative and melancholy phrase signify? In this talk Fisher’s blogging comrade and Retromania author Simon Reynolds reexamines the belief that the 21st century so far has been a Zeit without a Geist: an atemporal time of replicas, reenactments, reissues, revivals, and other syndromes of cultural recycling that put the ‘‘past’’ into pastiche. Are there reasons to be cheerful about music and pop culture as the 2010s limp to the finish line, if not so sanguine about politics or the environment? If society is deadlocked or, worse, heading in reverse, can we even expect music to surge forward like it once did?

(Re)conceptualization of Memory in Ukraine after the Revolution of Dignity

Author(s): Csilla Fedinec,István Csernicskó / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2017

In Ukraine, having arrived at a critical stage of its history, three areas can be highlighted at the level of legislation during the struggle for the way forward since the end of 2013: the language issue, the constitutional process, and the efforts to eliminate the Soviet legacy. The subject of our analysis is the four laws belonging to the 2015 legislative package on decommunization, with an outlook to the broader context, as well. The four laws in question decide about who are heroes and who are enemies in history; what Ukraine’s relationship is with World War II, as well as with the Communist and Nazi regimes. The laws point out firmly and excluding any further debate the primacy of the country’s independence over all else, and the protection of the ideal of independence by any means concerning both the past and the present. The laws prescribe impeachment as a sanction for denying their contents. This story – hot memory influenced by politics – will be summarized for theperiod of 2015–2016.

(НОВИ) ХЛАДНИ РАТ У НОВОМ МИЛЕНИЈУМУ

Author(s): Radenko Šćekić / Language(s): Slavic (Other) Issue: 3-4/2020

The Cold War refers to the period of development of international relations after the Second World War, which was characterized by ideological, political, military and overall bloc bipolarization and confrontation between the great powers of the West, ie the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) founded in 1949 and the Warsaw Pact established by the USSR in 1955. The epithet „cold” was given to this war because its actors sought to achieve their goals of supremacy and domination in international relations by avoiding direct armed conflict through the bloc and interest division of the world. After the collapse of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, NATO continued to dominate unhindered globally. The new millennium has brought an era of multipolarity and the economic and political influence of the West is declining.

17 years of service-dominant logic: Vargo and Lusch’s contributions

Author(s): Alexander Joseph Ibnu Wibowo,Ujang Sumarwan,Budi Suharjo,Megawati Simanjuntak / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2021

This article aims to examine the contribution of Vargo and Lusch (V&L) to service-dominant logic (S-D logic) thinking from the first time it appeared until now. No previous study has specifically analyzed all contributions of V&L since the phenomenon appearance of their article about this perspective in 2004. We identified a total of 146 titles of scientific publications by V&L with other authors on the S-D logic perspective over a period of 17 years (2004–2020). Each publication was analyzed through content analysis in several key aspects. This study found that the types of publications were dominated by journal articles and book chapters. There are 95 names of authors who have collaborated with V&L, mostly from the Americas and Europe. Based on the organization of origin of the researcher, 64 organizations have collaborated with V&L. All V&L publications are spread across 44 scientific journals, which include marketing and non-marketing journals or those from other social sciences. As a novelty, this study succeeds in explaining the evolution of S-D logic research over time based on V&L works through a systematic investigation. In this study, V&L’s efforts to institutionalize S-D logic can be traced.

1980 Sonrası Türkiye’nin Büyük Kent Sorunu ve Göç Olgusu

Author(s): Ece Demiray Erol,İbrahim Erol / Language(s): Turkish Publication Year: 0

Türkiye’de 1980 sonrası değişen bölgesel politikalar çerçevesinde büyük şehirlerin nüfusları aşırı bir biçimde artmıştır. Türkiye’deki göç hareketlerinin artışında Neoliberal politikalar ve küreselleşme hareketleri etkili olmuştur. Bu göç olgusunun perde arkasında büyük kentlerdeki daha iyi yaşam koşullarının varlığı, yeni iş fırsatları, eğitim ve sağlık hizmetlerinden daha iyi yararlanma ile kültür olanakları ön plana çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı büyük kent sorununu analiz etmek, büyük kentlerin olumlu ve olumsuz etkilerini tartışarak optimal şehir büyüklüğünü ortaya koymak ve bu çerçevede göç olgusunu değerlendirmektir. Değerlendirmeyi zorlaştıran en önemli etken bu alandaki çalışmaların çok az olmasıdır.

1990’lardan 2020’lere Genç Etkinlik Sergileri

Author(s): Hülya Küpçüoğlu / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 66/2020

Opening of contemporary art venues such as Aksanat, Borusan Sanat, Karşı Sanat in the 1990s supported the development of the Turkish contemporary art field. The biggest organization of the art environment in these years is undoubtedly Young Events. In 1995, President of the International Plastic Arts Association, Hüsamettin Koçan brings up a new project for the young artists of the period. This project will be open to all young artists and they will be able to exhibit their work as desired. The period is also the years in which subjects such as identity or ethnic identity, borders are examined. In this framework, the Association organized “Borders and Beyond” as the concept of Young Event 1, “Deterritorialization” in Young Event 2, “Chaos” in Young Event 3 and Young Event 4 without concepts. After a quiet break from 1998 to 2011, Young Events started again in 2011. However, this time it is not open to the participation of every artist. The artists will be determined by a jury. Young Event 8 was last done in 2019 under the name “Homo Historicus-Homo Projectus”. Young Events in the 1990s were made to provide an environment for the young artists of the period, who had difficulties in finding a gallery to open an exhibition, to encourage production freely because it was unselected, and to make them visible. As a result, many artists who opened exhibitions at the Young Events in the 1990s became visible. It has been observed that the artists participating in the Young Events in 2010 in terms of changing socio-cultural conditions and technology did not activate a mechanism of influence as in the 1990s. In this article, Young Events held in different years will be examined and their dynamics over the years will be given comparatively.

1995-2015 - Women and Political Life in Post-Dayton Bosnia and Herzegovina

Author(s): / Language(s): English

(English edition) While working on improving our program and portfolio on women’s human rights we quickly realized the absence of a detailed and visible account of “women’s” history in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Although there are a significant number of publications and several activist initiatives that address certain fragments of history and explore events, periods of time, and regions, there is currently no exhaustive institutional account of women in Bosnia, nor are attempts being made to create one. The academic community has unfortunately failed in this area. The history of women and their contribution to public life remains at the margins of academic inquiry. The Sarajevo Open Centre published the book Women Documented: Women and Public Life in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 20th Century. The book was edited by Jasmina Čaušević, a program coordinator at the Sarajevo Open Centre, in cooperation with ten authors. Through publishing this book, the Sarajevo Open Centre and our partner organizations wanted to celebrate the centenary of the First World War in a different way. It was precisely the work on Women Documented that revealed to us the need for further work exploring women’s history in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We hope that our (virtual) museum of women’s history in Bosnia will eventually be institutionalized in Bosnian society. In November and December 2015, we will commemorate the 20-year anniversary of the Dayton Peace Accords – the international agreement that brought peace to Bosnia and Herzegovina and laid the foundations for the long and grueling process of peace-making and trust-building. The Dayton Peace Process was, as this book will demonstrate, a classic example of male politics. The commemoration will, again, be dominated by men – Bosnian and Herzegovinian and world leaders. We decided to conduct this research and publish this book to challenge the male-dominated approach to memory. This publication aims to offer systematic insight into the role played by women in political life. Our goal is to offer a better understanding and a concise overview of political life over the past 20 years, based on the stories of a number of women - activists, politicians and institutional leaders - with the hope that it will inspire other authors to explore BiH political history during this period of time. Since this aspect of history is particularly under-researched, the very process of gathering information was challenging and so we welcome constructive criticism, comments, and suggestions for improvement and enrichment of this text. I would like to thank Marina, Arijana and Edita, who accepted to work with the Sarajevo Open Centre on this project. I would also like to thank my colleague Maida Zagorac, who has helped me immensely with her excellent oversight of both the technical and the substantive aspects of this text. I also owe thanks to the Embassy of Swiss Confederation in Bosnia and Herzegovina for supporting our work and the research of women’s history in Bosnia and Herzegovinian.

1999-2019 Yılları Arası Ağız Çalışmalarında Kullanılan Transkripsiyon İşaretleri Üzerine Karşılaştırmalı Bir İnceleme: Ünlüler

Author(s): Hüseyin Gökçe / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 66/2020

The problem of transcription signs used in dialect studies has been discussed in our country for many years. In 1999, Turkish Language Institute created a transcription system to solve this problem. Many studies on dialects have been prepared since then, but this system has not been fully followed. In this study we prepared, the transcription signs (vowels) in 56 dialects study between 1999-2019 were compared with the transcription marks in the system created by the Turkish Language Institute. In the introduction part, in these studies, why the system in question is not complied with, the studies for the solution of this problem and some studies that draw attention to this problem are mentioned. Then, the transcription signs for vowels in the system created by the Turkish Language Institution and the vowels' signs in the current studies were compared by means of some graphics and charts. In addition, this section also includes other vowel signs that are not included in the system in question, but are used in current studies. Information about the number of signs detected in the conclusion section, whether these signs are in the "Turkish Language Institution Transcription System" is given. In addition, some conclusions have been made in this section about which signs researchers have/ haven't difficulty in determining, why some signs are used more / less.

2000 Sonrası Türk Sinemasında Ailenin Belleğine Yolculuk: Pandora’nın Kutusu ve Kelebekler Filmleri

Author(s): Gökhan Evecen / Language(s): Turkish Issue: Sp. Iss/2020

The changing / transforming society in today's complex and speed world creates traumatic effects on family members. Traumatic past has an impact that imposes on both personal and social memory. In this sense, narration as a way of reckoning with the traumatic past and its kind, cinema, functions as a memory space and a means of memory. Turkey's host family in particular suffered structural transformation, taking its share of social change and this is reflected in cinema. In our country, where the family is seen as a sacred structure, the reasons leading to the shaking of the institution were generally searched abroad until 2000 in Turkish cinema. After 2000, the factors that caused the family institution to be shaken begin to be searched in the family. After 2000 the cinema represents the core of Turkey's traumatic past in the family is seen as continuing, albeit in different ways. In the study, the journey to the family's traumatic memory is discussed through the films of Pandora's Box (2008), one of the founding directors of the new Turkish cinema, which is addressing the same issues, and Tolga Karaçelik's Butterfly (2018), a second generation director. In this sense, the films were analyzed and compared with each other under the themes of family, memory and travel with descriptive analysis method. As a result of the analysis, common intersection points of these themes in terms of content were captured in many ways, and it was also seen that the personal memories of the directors were reflected in their films. Although the narrative structures differ due to the differences in the styles of the directors, it can be determined that cinema is used effectively in the reckoning of today's people with the traumatic past. In both films, it is possible to talk about the family members' reckoning with each other, the journeys they have begun to continue, and the past they have touched, even if the desired past is not reached.

Descriptive method was used in the research. As a result of the literature review, 50 story books were examined with the "Story Book Examination Form" developed by the researchers. The review form consists of three main parts. These sections; imprint of the books, internal and external structure features of the book. In terms of internal structure features; subject, concept, theme, character, language and expression are discussed. As for the external structure; criteria such as size, quality of the paper, cover, binding, layout, font size and illustration were investigated. Responses were made by grading "Yes" or "No" as "Partially" in the evaluation form of the books whose formal and content analysis were made. The examined books’ internal structure and external structure properties were evaluated; the data obtained were entered into the SPSS analysis program, frequency analyzes were made and interpreted. As a result of the research, 48 of the books examined have the name of the author on the inner cover, 2 of them have not included the author, the age level is not specified in 44 of the books, 50 of the story books are written between 14-20 pt, etc. In the direction of the identification information is appropriate; It has been determined that the language used in 44 of the books is suitable for the development level of the child and that sound similarities are included in 23 of the books included in the study in order to create harmony in the text. It was found that 9 of the sample group books examined included the concept of friendship, 10 of them the concept of love, and 6 of them included the concept of self-efficacy.

2018-2019 EĞİTİM-ÖĞRETİM YILI SOSYAL BİLGİLER ZÜMRE TOPLANTI TUTANAKLARININ İNCELENMESİ: İSTANBUL ÖRNEĞİ

Author(s): Büşra Elçiçeği,Kaya Yilmaz / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 21/2021

This research was conducted in order to describe and evaluate the minutes of Social Studies group meetings of primary schools in Istanbul for the 2018-2019 academic year. Based on qualitative research, this study used document analysis. The minutes of 12 Social Studies group meetings in the first and second semesters of the 2018-2019 academic year in Istanbul were examined comparatively in the study. A total of 107 Social Studies teachers, 67 male and 44 female, 2 principals and 5 vice principals attended the meetings. The data consisting of meeting reports were analyzed by content analysis method. The subjects that constitute the agenda, teaching-learning process, measurement and evaluation, decisions taken to increase the success of students and the future, and decisions about work health and safety were analyzed in the reports of the group meetings. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the minutes of Social Studies group meetings were prepared in the form of copies of each other with an approach or work habit far from reality. The fact that only some minor changes were made in the agenda items of the group meetings and the use of lots of stereotypes indicates that the changing time in the meetings, specific conditions of schools and student needs were not taken into account adequately. It was detected that the reports of the group meetings in 1st semester are more detailed in terms of the number of pages, agenda items and the decisions taken, and that there are not many details in the reports of the group meetings in the 2nd semester.

2019 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN UKRAINE: HOW ZELENSKY WAS ELECTED?

Author(s): Viktoriia Demydova / Language(s): English Issue: 67/2020

In April 2019, Ukrainians elected actor and showman Volodymyr Zelensky as their president. Zelensky was more than unexpected choice for the country that wages a war with its neighbor. This article concentrates on the two rounds of 2019 presidential election. The author discusses election results, factors of electoral behavior, regional voting patterns, role of oligarchs, stance of Russia and role of the virtual space in the election. It is argued that in Ukraine, citizens chose a person without political experience hoping for a change. While one can note presence of the regular elections and changes in the leadership in Ukraine, democratic principles and procedures have not institutionalized yet. Thus, oligarchs still back the candidates. At the same time, traditional regional voting patterns are deteriorating while the role of youth is growing and particularly this is possible due to the spread of the social media. The author analyzes three groups of sources. First, the election results are studied to reveal public support for different candidates and regional voting in Ukraine. Second, data related to electoral race including party programs, surveys about public support for the candidates and debates are examined. Finally, official documents indicating policies of the Ukrainian presidents are analyzed.
