Under a complex geological region influenced by the subduction of the Pacific plate, Kamchatka Peninsula is one of the most active volcanic arcs in the Pacific Rim. Due to logistical difficulty in ...instrumentation, shallow magma plumbing systems beneath some of the Kamchatkan volcanoes are poorly understood. InSAR offers a safe and quick method for monitoring volcanic deformation with a high spatial resolution. In this study, a group of satellite radar interferograms that span the time interval from 2000 to 2010 shows eruptive and non-eruptive deformation at Karymsky Volcanic Center (KVC), Kamchatka, Russia. All the interferograms provide details of the activity around the KVC during 2000–2010, as follows: (1) from 2000 to 2004, the Karymsky-AN (Akademia Nauk) area deflated and the MS (Maly Semyachik) area inflated, (2) from 2004 to 2006, the Karymsky-AN area deflated with ongoing eruption, while the MS area subsided without eruption, (3) from 2006 to 2008, as with 2000–2004, the Karymsky-AN area deflated and the MS area inflated, (4) from 2008 to 2010, the Karymsky-AN area inflated up to 3 cm, and the MS area subsided. Point source models suggest that two magma reservoirs provide a good fit to the observed deformation. One source is located beneath the area between Karymsky and AN at a depth of approximately 7.0 km, and the other one is situated beneath MS at a depth of around 5.8 km. Synchronous deformation patterns suggest that two magma systems are fed from the same deep magma source and connected by a fracture zone. The InSAR results are consistent with GPS ground deformation measurements, seismic data, and petrological constraints.

Đakovačko-osječka nadbiskupija izradila je u okviru Druge biskupijske sinode novi vlastiti put evangelizacijskoga procesa. U odnosu na laike u tom procesu bitnu ulogu imaju privatna vjernička ...društava, od kojih se očekuje da po novim pastoralnim modelima doprinesu sintezi vjerskoga i svjetovnoga života. Danas ostaje otvoreno pitanje koliko su ta društva odgovorila na sinodske zahtjeve. Radi doprinosa traganju za odgovorom te radi traganja za primjerima dobre prakse istražena je udruga Prijatelji sv. Martina. U prvom dijelu rada predstavljena su obilježja i načela socijalnoga pastorala s mladima kao skup kriterija prosudbe ostvarenosti sinodskih zahtjeva na području rada s mladima. U drugom dijelu rada prosuđeni su projekti namijenjeni mladima koje je Udruga provela, a u trećem i zaključnom dijelu izrađene su praktične smjernice za buduću pastoralnu praksu Udruge i društava s područja Nadbiskupije.
Within the scope of the Second Diocesan Synod, the Archdiocese of Đakovo-Osijek has developed its new path of evangelization process. Concerning the laity, private associations of believers play an important role in this process and are expected to contribute to the synthesis of religious and secular life according to new pastoral models. Today, the question remains as to how much these associations have responded to the synodal demands. To contribute to the search for an answer and in search of examples of good practice, we investigated the Friends of St. Martin Association. The first part of the paper presents the features and principles of social pastoral care of young people as a set of criteria to evaluate the implementation of synodal de-mands in the field of youth ministry. The second part of the paper presents an evaluation of projects for young people implemented by the Association, and the third and final part offers practical guidelines for the future pastoral practice of the Association and societies in the Archdiocese.
Nikolai Zhinkin’s review of Ernst Cassirer is so far the earliest document of the discussion in Russia about Cassirer’s conception of myth and his theory of symbolic forms. The text is published from ...Zhinkin’s archive. Zhinkin here notes a reorientation of Neo-Kantianism that reveals its hidden relativism and stands as a symptom of its downfall.
W niniejszym artykule analizuję współczesny dyskurs nauk społecznych pod kątem obecności w nim badań nad przerywaniem ciąży. Aborcja jest często występującym zabiegiem medycznym, a jednocześnie ...stanowi jeden z najgorętszych przedmiotów debaty publicznej angażujący środowiska religijne, feministyczne i polityczne. W artykule szukam odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy popularność tego tematu w sferze publicznej znajduje odzwierciedlenie w dyskursie nauk społecznych. Interesuje mnie to, w jaki sposób skupienie dyskursu na konkretnych perspektywach badania aborcji – indywidualnej, społecznej i instytucjonalnej, a także dyskursywnej i metodologicznej – konstruuje „socjologię aborcji”. Analiza dyskursu na temat aborcji pokazuje, że badania nad aborcją w najbardziej prestiżowych czasopismach odnoszą się głównie do świata anglosaskiego. Ponadto badania aborcji stanowią niewielki procent artykułów w analizowanych czasopismach z zakresu nauk społecznych, a dominująca perspektywa to badanie aborcji przez pryzmat opinii społecznych na jej temat. Najmniej uwagi poświęca się natomiast perspektywie indywidualnej i doświadczeniom kobiet, które przerwały ciążę.
Teološka refleksija se bavi pitanjem klime kao općega dobra i razmatra kako dijalog može doprinijeti očuvanju klime. Rad je strukturiran oko tri glavne točke. U prvoj točki rada – Posvijestiti ...značenje općega dobra – polazi se od pitanja koliko je u vremenu partikularizama i fragmentizacije života prisutna svijest o općemu dobru. Središnja je nakana aktualizacija općega dobra, načela »koje ima središnju i ujedinjujuću ulogu u socijalnoj etici« (Laudato si’, br. 156). Temeljno mjesto koje mu se pridaje proizlazi iz njegove direktne povezanosti s globalnim društvom, a samim time predstavlja i ono temeljno što nas povezuje. U središtu druge točke rada – Zaštita klime kao opće dobro – nalazi se dalekosežnost posljedica klimatskih promjena koje stvaraju nove oblike nepravdi i osiromašenja ljudi na planetarnoj razini. Tek u solidarnom i zajedničkom opredjeljenju za siromašne moguće je poticati nove oblike zajedničke suradnje i organizacije. One će ići u smjeru temeljitih i umreženih interdisciplinarnih rasprava o općem dobru kako bi se pridonijelo djelovanjima koja će sačuvati život planete i omogućiti budućnost novim generacijama. Treća točka rada – Dijalog kao put – pokazuje da je značenje dijaloga danas od ključne važnosti i kada se promišlja pitanje puta do ostvarenja općega dobra. To je put koji cjelinu dohvaća ostvarenjem cjelovitoga razvoja svih dijelova društva, te koji istovremeno obuhvaća iskorak prema okupljanju oko zaštite klime kao općeg dobra. U tom kontekstu socijalni nauk Katoličke crkve, koji posjeduje interdisciplinarnu dimenziju (usp. Centesimus annus, br. 59), omogućuje suradnju u službi općega dobra

Two problems continually arise in the sciences and humanities, according to Mario Bunge: parts and wholes and the origin of novelty. InEmergence and Convergence, he works to address these problems, ...as well as that of systems and their emergent properties, as exemplified by the synthesis of molecules, the creation of ideas, and social inventions.
Along the way, Bunge examines further topical problems, such as the search for the mechanisms underlying observable facts, the limitations of both individualism and holism, the reach of reduction, the abuses of Darwinism, the rational choice-hermeneutics feud, the modularity of the brain vs. the unity of the mind, the cluster of concepts around 'maybe,' the uselessness of many-worlds metaphysics and semantics, the hazards posed by Bayesianism, the nature of partial truth, the obstacles to correct medical diagnosis, and the formal conditions for the emergence of a cross-discipline.
Bunge is not interested in idle fantasies, but about many of the problems that occur in any discipline that studies reality or ways to control it. His work is about the merger of initially independent lines of inquiry, such as developmental evolutionary biology, cognitive neuroscience, and socio-economics. Bunge proposes a clear definition of the concept of emergence to replace that of supervenience and clarifies the notions of system, real possibility, inverse problem, interdiscipline, and partial truth that occur in all fields.
