Abstract:

What was it like for children and youth to grow up in the Protestant Church in 16th century Europe? This historical study explores this question through its focus on specific practices within Christian education and ecclesial rites of initiation, namely baptism, confirmation, and the use of catechisms in the spiritual formation of young people. The research is situated at the intersection of historical theology, spiritual formation, and the life stages of childhood and adolescence, placing particular focus on the theology and writings of Martin Luther as a representative of Reformation-era ecc

Leslie Berlin's book Troublemakers is an engaging and insightful people-first exploration of the roots of Silicon Valley, from the late 1960s to the early 1980s. Berlin portrays seven individuals who played important roles at critical junctures in the development of technologies we now take for granted: the Internet; personal, connected computing and communications devices; genetic engineering; software as a service (SAAS); streaming video; massively multiplayer online games; and democratized access to the world's information.

The existence of disaster insurance in Indonesia is particularly important because the area is prone to disasters, especially for MSMEs.Increasing resistance to hazards from climate change and disasters can benefit greatly from well-designed insurance programs.

Abstract:

New age spirituality has long involved ecospirituality and nature religion. It has also typically been associated with left-wing politics. However, I argue that this political assumption is no longer tenable, and that right-wing political positions, particularly libertarianism, are a prominent feature of contemporary new age spirituality. People involved in new age spirituality remain committed to nature and ecospirituality, but they now fuse these commitments with conspiracy theories, providing elaborate explanations for the current ecological crisis beyond those validated by environmental sc

Abstract:

Geologists and ecologists report that Earth is undergoing its sixth massive extinction event, an occasion that calls for radical revision of conservation ethics. The biologist Edward O. Wilson has proposed that conservation projects in the Anthropocene should be grounded in biophilia, an evolved, relational (or biocentric) mode of perception that activates aesthetic and affective responses to non-human life alongside cognitive understanding. Because biophilia includes non-rational modes of perception, the nurturing of biophilic conservation ethics cannot fall to ecology alone; imaginative lite

Abstract:

Abstract Jesus' demand that Nicodemus must be born again does not concern personal regeneration, rather it points to a shift in the locus of salvation from Israel to the Messiah in the coming age. The numerous references in the pericope to the exodus suggest that “born of water” alludes to the birth of Israel at the exodus. Jesus' demand to be born of water and spirit (v. 5) points to the inadequacy, in the coming age, of belonging to national Israel and the ensuing need for those born into Israel to now be born of spirit, or for Jews like Nicodemus to be “born again” (v. 3).

The queer coming-of-age film genre, although gaining more visibility with a recent slate of films, has not always been recognized or studied as a genre. Providing a unique sense of the struggles queer people experience coming of age in our society, these films serve an important function. By documenting the struggles cis-het society creates for queer adolescents as well as providing hope for the queer audience looking for guidance through this often-difficult period, these films also reveal how queer adolescents lack the same resources and support as their cis-het peers.

ABSTRACT: In Norway, youth unemployment is not only a policy issue but a subject of popular concern. One sometimes hears that the country's young people, who have grown up in an exceedingly wealthy petro-state, lack the ethics, habits, and dispositions toward labor of their parents and grandparents. While these complaints hardly constitute an accurate representation of the youth, they do capture something important about the challenges of "coming of age" within the context of the twenty-first-century Nordic Model.

The author argues that the projects on aging by Beauvoir and Franck illuminate each other in important ways and underscore blind spots in Beauvoir’s approach.

patriotism as the basis of commitment to universal values requires the coming of age of young people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for our country, and for our people, on the way to make our lives prosperous and free. One of the ancient Greek letters wrote in his work" To the honor of the motherland":" This is an old saying, but the truth is: a child who does not respect his father cannot respect the father of another, and a person who does not love his homeland cannot appreciate the motherland". How modern these statements are now.

Abstract:

The world population is aging rapidly and the older population will dominate the age composition of the population in the coming days. Sleep deprivation is a considerable public health concern in older people. More than 50 percent of older people suffer from insomnia. Insufficient sleep can directly affect a person’s feelings during their working hours - slow thinking, reduced attention span, worsened memory, poor or risky decision-making, lack of energy, and mood changes. Long-term consequences of insomnia include hypertension, dyslipidemia, weight gain, metabolic syndrome, and the risk of ma

Abstract This article attends to Beauvoir’s concept of the image in The Coming of Age, Les Belles Images, and A Walk through the Land of Old Age. The author argues that the experience of being an older adult emerges primarily from the available social images of old age rather than from the aging body. This view reveals problems with the discourse around older people that fueled the COVID-19 care home crisis and that persist in our response to the crisis.

AbstractThis article explores the concept of African theology from a historical and methodological point of view. It shows that there is not one type of theology that can be called African theology but that there is a cluster of diverse theologies which share a number of common characteristics: African theology is theology done in Africa, arising out of the identity of African people, using African concepts of thought and speaking to the African context. The authors signal that there is relatively little interaction between the various theologies developed on the continent and that much theolo

Abstract:

Age-related skeletal muscle loss, sarcopenia, cachexia and wider malnutrition (under nutrition) are complex in aetiology with interaction of clinical, social and economic factors. Weight loss and loss of skeletal muscle mass in older people are associated with increased morbidity and mortality with implications for increasing health and social care costs. There is insufficient evidence to identify the ideal treatment options. However, preventing weight loss and loss of skeletal muscle in older age will be keys to reducing morbidity and mortality. This will require all those coming into contact

The novel is read through various, overlapping lenses: the use of the semi-autobiographical form and the related challenge, brought about by the woman migrant writer, to the genre itself of autobiography and its relevance to individual and collective identity formation, the deconstruction of fixed, universal subjectivity and the challenge that exile narratives bring to the narration of nations, the specific positionality of the author that brings into play not only Arab and Arab-Ameri

The questionnaire was answered by 1,002 residents of 48 Spanish cities. The study population was 50% female and spanned various age groups, occupations, and levels of education. The results indicate that although the population has a quite favorable opinion of citizen science, people feel underinformed about it. Very few respondents consider it to be negative and many expect it to have a positive impact over the coming decade. While both men and women exhibit i

Abstract:

This paper examines scholars’ discourses on the coming of the Information Age. It starts by discussing scholars who measured the emergence of the Information Age in the early 1960s. Machlup and Galbraith used economic indicators, followed by the exploration of network and knowledge sharing, which is a crucial process in the formation of the Information Age. Ellul (1964) paralleled humanity with technology as a “system,” and Mumford (1966) coined the term “megamachine.” These early arguments were pessimistic that humans were considered as inevitably confined by uncontrolled structures due to in

Abstract:

America is aging. But even more striking than the rise in the proportion of the population over age 65 is the unprecedented number of individuals who are living into their eighties and nineties. While many people remain robust well into advanced age, the dramatic increase in the number of the oldest old has brought with it an epidemic of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Dementia is a highly prevalent condition — currently 5.4 million Americans have Alzheimer’s disease, a number which may rise to 16 million by 2050 if there is no breakthrough in the prevention or treatment of the diseas
