Abstract:

AbstractThis article uncovers the invaluable work of midwives as medical professionals in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Egyptian society. It challenges the public-private distinction as a way of demonstrating its obscuring effect on measuring Arab women's participation in society. In fact, relying on this conceptualization of space, and by implication, gendered power, can lead to a misleading conclusion. Because Egyptian midwives participated publicly in society, they consequently were unshackled from those social and cultural forces that otherwise segregated them to the private

Abstract:

The following narrative explores my current negotiation within professional boundaries. Boundaries can establish lines that divide, bind, or exclude. Boundaries can create order, organize, and establish networks. Boundaries separate disciplines, in this case architecture and anthropology. Boundaries can also transform a natural environment into a cultural landscape, providing a sense of place and capturing the identities of people. Although the built environment is not always designed to readily adapt, it still grows. The same is true for education; while disciplines are often designed for the

Abstract:

I argue against the commonly held view that ethnically based preferential policies consistently lead to the construction of well-defined boundaries between collectivities. Using a statistical study of Australia as a case, I demonstrate that preferential programs, under certain conditions, may blur the boundaries between groups. This trend is reflected in the growing number of individuals in the early 1980s who chose to claim an Aboriginal identity in Australian states that increasingly recognized indigenous land claims.

Baerman (2012) suggests that noun inflection in Latvian presents a problem for Carstairs-McCarthy’s (1994) No Blur Principle, a successor to the Paradigm Economy Hypothesis (Carstairs 1983; 1987; Carstairs-McCarthy 2010). On closer examination, however, this turns out not to be so. Some other languages (such as Nuer) do appear to violate the No Blur Principle. However, when one takes into account the relationship between affixal inflection and stem alternation patterns, Latvian emerges as perfectly compliant. The discussion involves the distinction between patterns of stem alternation that hav

Abstract:

When existing cultural boundaries seem to blur, people will look for alternative ways to express their identities. Recent research has shown that aesthetic dispositions (how one consumes culture) may be more significant than taste preferences (what is consumed). Sociologists therefore wonder whether distinction might be going underground. Elaborating on this issue, we examine the role of irony in cultural consumption through nine in-depth interviews with karaoke participants contacted in two bars in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, as we suspect that the ironic attitude is ideally suited to crossin

Various edge detection methods have been developed by providing noise parameters to reduce noise, and adding a blur parameter but because these parameters apply to the entire image, but lossing some edges due to these parameters.

Privatization, contracting out, and a host of other current trends blur the line between public and private—they create what at best is a fuzzy line. This study examines yet one additional area where the lines between public and private have gotten even fuzzier—the best selling novel. It uses the writings of Tom Clancy and Clive Cussler,two authors whose names on a novel guarantee best-seller status. It will do so in the context of what a civic community and civil society are, and how they relate to the public-private question, a question that has renewed life in public administration.

AbstractThis article begins by introducing the work of a leading feminist theorist, Donna Haraway, especially her classic article, "A Manifesto for Cyborgs," and its relevance for ecocriticism of the Hebrew Bible. Building on the work of Hilary Klein, Haraway argues that Marxism, feminism and technoscience often work out of origin stories that reinscribe the dualisms that feminists seek to overcome. She refers to all contemporary origin stories as Eden stories. Her analysis of Jane Goodall's work at Gombe is an example. Haraway seeks myths or figures that blur the boundaries between the dualis

Most research on migration and ethnic boundaries is concerned with boundaries between a specific migrant minority and the ‘majority society’ in the destination country.

Focusing on migrants from former Yugoslavia, we analyse the relevance of ethnic boundaries between Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats in Germany. We do so by interpreting migrant parents’ practices of first-name giving as instances of ethnic boundary work. In the case of migrants fro

We argue that income-contingent loans are hybrid policy instruments that combine elements of a state-instituted tax and a market-negotiated debt.

Abstract:

The construction of identity in contemporary literature of the self has become a recurring fact in recent years. The limits that blur autofictions, where hazy boundaries separate the real from the fictitious, allow for life experiences to become diluted within the literary experience. Within the context of exile, all forms of identity construction are placed “in transit”: a learning process that involves an adaptation to a new territory and a new language. The second volume in Laura Alcoba’s trilogy, El azul de las abejas (2014 [2013]), shows how the exiled subject’s identity is constructed as

The article is a review of the book by T.A. Alekseeva Theory of International Relations as Political Philosophy and Science (Moscow: Aspect Press; 2019). The last decades have been marked by large-scale transformations: the spatial-temporal characteristics of political processes change - political time accelerates, political space shrinks, sequence of the political development stages changes; boundaries between internal and external, center and periphery, material and immaterial blur. Despite the fact that these changes affect both domestic and international policies, the complexity of global

Abstract:

The ongoing conceptualisation of oceans and the hydrosphere by Peters and Steinberg is to be welcomed. They continue to challenge geography’s historical tendency to focus on and from terrestrial spaces, exploring how oceans exceed their material, discursive and imagined boundaries along with their liquid form. This short commentary responds specifically to their assertion that ‘The ocean is fish’. Using the example of Atlantic salmon, it questions the directionality at the heart of Peters and Steinberg’s paper. It focuses particularly on the complex spatialities of salmonid life, and the abili

Abstract:

This paper examines a peculiar notion of divinity: the observation that authors of twentieth century astrology books recount myths of ancient Greek deities. These old stories seem to contradict the often cited ‘new’ psychological nature of Western astrology since the 1920s following the influence of C. G. Jung’s psychology. On a larger scale, this observation has the potential to blur the boundaries between so-called ‘traditional’ and ‘psychological’ astrology. And yet astrological authors had their reasons for including Greek mythology in their books. The task of this paper is to flesh out th

Abstract:

STEM education in the United States is often described as being in a downward spiral, when assessed by competency test scores and lack of student motivation for engaging STEM disciplines. The authors suggest this arises from an overly instrumental view of STEM. While STEAM has arisen as a pushback paradigm, the application of STEAM in schools is challenging, and educators are often unclear about connecting STEM and the arts. The authors suggest envisioning STEAM through natural disciplinary interconnections. They focus on the integration of language arts and figurative thinking to blur the bou

Abstract:

The gap between newspaper advertising and editorial sections is narrowing. Whereas once newspaper editorial departments operated semi-independently of advertising, the divisions between these areas are no longer as clear as they once were. As the boundaries between news and advertising-driven information blur, journalistic independence and news sense are subsumed in favour of the commercial imperatives that increasingly threaten to overwhelm all sections of newspapers. Metropolitan and regional journalists in Australia are experiencing what could be the beginning of the end of editorial indepe

Abstract:

The article examines the origins and relationships between global, transnational history and international history, and the potential of these fields of enquiry to reshape European history. Divided into three parts, and drawing on a range of global and European examples, the article examines some of the ways in which transnational history holds the potential to blur established chronological boundaries and offer new approaches to the mapping of time. Global and transnational history has also helped to identify new processes and relationships in modern history, posing, in particular, new questi

Abstract:

How do we understand the presence of the grotesque in negotiations of democratic life after a revolution? At the peak of procedural democratic consolidation, carnivalesque revelries in Tunisia became the object of public aporia and repugnance. The dissimilar interpretations of these revelries across generations evince an agonistic process of prizing open both the parameters of nationhood and democratic ideals within existing social relations. The concept of the ‘democratic grotesque’ captures the sensorial and affective ways Tunisian citizens negotiate the affordances and limitations of democr

Abstract:

The No-reference Autoencoder VidEo (NAVE) metric is a video quality assessment model based on an autoencoder machine learning technique. The model uses an autoencoder to produce a set of features with a lower dimension and a higher descriptive capacity. NAVE has been shown to produce accurate quality predictions when tested with two video databases. As it is a common issue when dealing with models that rely on a nested non-linear structure, it is not clear at what level the content and the actual distortions are affecting the model’s predictions. In this paper, we analyze the NAVE model and te
