Abstract:

DESPITE the substantial and significant body of scholarly work on changing gender relations among African peoples who are (or were) primarily cultivators, the gender relations of predominantly pastoralist peoples have been, with a few notable exceptions, curiously excluded from historical examination. Instead, despite work which has shown the complexities of trying to determine the ‘status’ of East African pastoralist women, pastoralist gender relations seem to exist outside of history and be immune to change. Earlier anthropological studies that addressed pastoral gender relations applied a s

<strong>Abstract:</strong> There are no conflicts in which women are not involved yet those who study the impact of ethnic conflicts tend to make casual mention of the impact of such conflicts on women. Equally troubling is the fact that studies on ethnic conflicts in Kenya have tended to locate the origin of the problem to the 1990s when Kenya re-introduced multiparty democracy. Multiparty democracy pitted one ethnic community against another. Such studies, therefore, tend to create a false impression that ethnic conflicts are a recent phenomenon.

This creative project is a screenplay. The screenplay is about a woman who struggles to defy the idea of getting married. In the New Order, President Soeharto led Indonesia using Javanese culture. Until today, there is a belief that women in Indonesia are obliged to get married because of the culture. In Javanese culture, there is a value called 3M (macak, masak, manak). The value created a definition of a true woman. A true woman has to be able to look pretty and cook. In order to fulfil the third value, a woman has to get married and have a family. This value burdens some modern Indonesian w

Even though culture is an important social regulator, it has become necessary to investigate the extent to which Maasai women's social security for health is influenced by cultural practices.

This summary of my PhD thesis analyses conflicts around land in relation to pastoral Maasai women livelihoods in Tanzania. Issues of pastoralism and land use conflicts in Tanzania are well documented in literature. However, a gendered analysis of conflicts around land in relation to land reforms (changes in the use and ownership of, and access to land and land resources), prolonged climate variability and change, and food insecurity, hardly exists in the literature. Of particular concern is the rudimentary analysis of these conflicts as it relates to pastoral Maasai women, the primary and seco

Abstract:

One hundred and sixty five Korean women in a shoe factory in Masan, Korea were evaluated on hepatitis B virus infection by solid-phase radioimmunoassay in 1986. The participants were women of child-bearing ages, mostly in 20's and 30's. About two thirds (105/165) of the subjects had serological evidence of past or present hepatitis B virus infection, and 17% (28/165) were HBsAg-positive. In view of possible risk of vertical transmission of hepatitis B virus, further epidemiological study was considered necessary to establish preventive measures.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article discusses sexual licences and prohibitions among the Maasai of Kenya and Tanzania with particular reference to the institutionalized yet controversial sexual relations between young pre-menarche girls and adolescent unmarried men. These relations are referred to as children's ‘play’ in the local vernacular, and as such fall within a larger moral order of age and gender hierarchies that privilege male seniority. The article uses the metaphor of ‘serious games’ adopted from Sherry Ortner as an analytical device in order to capture the dynamic and ambiguous character of Maasa

Abstract:

The goal of this study was to define the population parameters of the body fat percentage of residents of the Republic of Serbia. The sample was a total of 8145 respondents, of which 3051 (37.5%) were women with an average age of 32.0 ± 9.8 years, and the rest of 5094 (62.5%) were men with an average age of 32.9 ± 11.3 years. The average value of PBF for the women subsample was 28.46 ± 9.19% and 18.00 ± 7.98% for the men subsample. The results of factorial variance analysis have shown that there is a statistically significant difference (p<0.001) of PBF values regarding sex (F=1243.719) and

Abstract:

Acute bacterial cystitis is the most common form of community-acquired urinary tract infections in women. Uri-nary tract infections are the second most common reason for antibiotic prescription in the USA. There is a need for alternative treatments that would help to avoid the use of systematic antimicrobials thus reducing the incidence of microbial resistance and side effects of the drugs. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of antibiotic ointment treatment in recurrent UTIs in women. We followed up 34 non-pregnant women with a previous history of recurrent UTIs who were instructed

Abstract:

Ndarboy Genk is a Javanese singer whose lyrics often feature women as “main characters”. The songs also include the relationship between men and women in the context of Javanese society, including stereotypes about men’s expectations of women. Therefore, this study aimed to review Javanese men’s expectations of women contained in Ndarboy Genk’s song lyrics. This study is qualitative and uses a semiotic analysis approach that also links the constructivist paradigm. Data collection techniques refer to literature studies through the interpretation process. The results show that Javanese men’s exp

However, it is under threat from illegal subsistence farming in the Mau catchment and its surrounding areas due to anthropogenic activities leading to deforestation. The main objective of the study was to look at socioeconomic and environmental contexts of the households to inform sustainable land management (SLM) and conservation efforts.
