The ambiguous term delo (thing, matter, act or cause) was fundamental for the th Russian radical autobiographical writers at the beginning of the 20 century. The dedication to a cause was the ...‘leading star’ to frame one’s own biography, as it proved one’s reputation within the radical milieu. Therefore, it was important not only to choose which parts of one’s radical past needed to be emphasised, but also which deeds were better to silence, omit or vindicate. While radical writers often framed the topics of their autobiographies in a similar way, polemics and debates generated among the senior radicals. This article proposes basic guidelines on how to read and analyse the numerous Russian radical autobiographical writings by identifying the most common authors’ choices of framing and emplotment.
Controlled synthesis of the electroluminescent polymer PFO-MEH-PPV (poly(9,9-dioctyl-2,7-divinylenefluorenylene)-alt-co-(2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene)) provided samples of varying ...molecular weight (Mw) in the range 20–360 kDa, as determined by gel-permeation chromatography and light scattering. The samples were used as the active layers in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and the performance of the devices was examined as a function of Mw. Turn-on voltages fell in the range 1.92–2.78 V, luminances varied from 231 to 5826 cd/m

, and luminous efficacies ranged from 0.06 to 0.90 lm/W. The emitted colour was found to vary from green to yellow as Mw increases. Optimal performance was attained by using PFO-MEH-PPV with Mw = 100 kDa. To help reveal how Mw determines the performance of OLEDs, relative quantum yields of photoluminescence in solutions and films were measured, and films were characterized by atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.
The book contributes new insights to the research in the field of anthropology of (post)socialism, culture of consumption, gender and memory. It is based on the testimony of interlocutors who offer ...an insight into the “structure of the feeling” of the socialist era through the practice of consumption, from which on the one hand the complex economic and political dynamics and diverse disciplinary regimes are being reflected and the understanding of power, resistance and emancipation on the other. Author establishes critical distance towards the approach, which discusses socialism as a totalitarianism and shows that socialist policies were not simply dictated from above, but negotiated between the state and its citizens. The female consumer in socialism did not only respond to social barriers and obstacles of history, but she also actively co-created social time. By studying how consumers interpreted and created mutual connections between material objects, moral reputation and (self)respect, the book also shows certain specific elements of Slovenian and Yugoslav development of the European countries after the Second World War.
Southern Brazil's highland Araucaria forest is ancient, diverse and unique, but its future is under significant threat from 20th Century habitat loss and 21st Century climate change. Paleoecological ...studies have revealed that it expanded rapidly over highland grasslands around 1000 years ago, but whether this expansion was caused by human land use or climate change has been a topic of considerable debate. Discriminating between these potential drivers has so far not been possible with fossil pollen, however, as the palynological representation of floristic and structural differences in Araucaria forest remains poorly understood. Here, we address this shortcoming using modern pollen rain from moss polsters and vegetation surveys in forest areas with minimal current human disturbance. We show that forest plots with evident structural differences lack consistent differences in their floristic composition and cannot be reliably distinguished by their pollen spectra. We quantify pollen–vegetation relationships for 27 key tree genera of Araucaria forest, showing that, despite significant intra-taxon variability, 22 of these are under-represented or absent in the pollen record. These palynologically under-represented and silent taxa include many of the forest's most ecologically important tree species, with only Araucaria, Lamanonia, Podocarpus, Myrsine and Clethra being more abundant in the pollen rain than vegetation. Our results suggest that subtle structural changes in Araucaria forest, as well as moderate to significant floristic changes, may not be clearly distinguished in fossil pollen records – an important limitation when attempting to identify past human and climatic impacts on Araucaria forest via pollen analysis.
•The first quantitative pollen–vegetation study in Brazil's Araucaria forest•Of the 27 key tree taxa examined, 22 are under-represented in modern pollen rain.•Structurally different Araucaria forest plots produce similar pollen spectra.•These findings have clear implications for the reconstruction of the forest's past.

Stories, memories, relationships, traditional skills, dialects, and other tangible and intangible elements of cultural heritage provide opportunities and ways that can lead to compassionate, quality, ...authentic, and sustainable living in the present and in the future. The preservation and interpretation of unique cultural and natural artefacts from the past is not only in the hands of professionals from heritage institutions and research centres, but also in the hands of civil society of which children and youth are its integral part. Local people have become important participants in co-creating heritage, yet young people are still often not understood as equal bearers of culture or co-creators of heritage. How should we act to make youth’s bold ideas heard and realised in heritage projects and activities? The handbook ('Heritage in action: Ways and opportunities of integrating heritage practices into educational programs') presents approaches, methods, techniques, and examples of good practice that can address children and young people to actively participate in the exploration and interpretation of the past and (re)creation of cultural heritage in their local community. It is intended for the educators in kindergartens, schools, universities, youth centers, and local associations who want to encourage the younger generations to a deeper understanding of their ancestors’ lives.
V prispevku obravnavamo poslovne modele t. i. ekonomije delitve (angl. sharing economy) ter njihovo vlogo v spreminjanju narave dela in oblik zaposlenosti. Obravnavane spremembe umeščamo v kontekst ...namestitvene industrije, saj podrobneje analiziramo vlogo Airbnbja kot enega izmed prvih primerov poslovnih modelov, ki se predstavljajo pod nazivom ekonomije delitve. Airbnb je spletni rezervacijski sistem, ki se od starejših podobnih modelov (npr. Booking.com) razlikuje predvsem v naslavljanju zasebnih posameznikov, da v zameno za plačilo gostijo tujce v svojem domu. V prispevku odpremo razpravo, ki jo tovrstni novi, digitalno podprti, poslovni modeli prinašajo za naravo dela in razumevanje delavskih pravic. Pri tem ugotavljamo, da je poslovni model Airbnbja bolj smiselno opisovati s terminom platformna ekonomija kot ekonomija delitve. V prispevku analiziramo, kako Airbnb izkorišča širše strukturne procese za uveljavljanje svojih konkurenčnih prednosti: trend brezplačnega ali nizko plačanega digitalnega dela, vedno večjo vlogo uporabniških komentarjev kot orodja menedžerskega nadzora in vedno večjo vključenost socialnih medijev v vsakdanje življenje s spremljajočo komodifikacijo. Spremembe, ki jih tovrstni poslovni modeli prinašajo za svet dela so tako predvsem v vse večji prekarizaciji dela, povečevanju emocionalnega dela in brisanju meja med službenim in zasebnim življenjem.
V prispevku najprej podajamo pregled del, ki so na seznamih obvezne in dodatne literature pri tistih študijskih predmetih, pri katerih se študenti slovenskih univerz učijo o strokovno-znanstvenem ...pisanju. Seznamu smo nato dodali še druge slovenske priročnike s to tematiko in pregledali njihovo vsebino, nato pa smo zbrali in analizirali ter komentirali še navodila za pisanje diplomskih del vseh 52 javnih slovenskih fakultet. Izpostavili smo zgledne primere in opozorili na nekatera mesta, ki jih je mogoče še izboljšati.
Dr Đorđe Mihailović (1892-1974) rodio se u 19, ali se njegov život odvijao u 20. veku. U rodnom Nišu završio je osnovnu školu i gimnaziju, a 1907. upisao studije medicine u Beču. Uoči Prvog ...balkanskog rata prekinuo je studiranje i prijavio se u dobrovoljce. Bio je raspoređen u Moravsku stalnu vojnu bolnicu Niš. U Prvom svetskom ratu bio je lekarski pomoćnik u istoj bolnici, pod upravom dr Vladimira Stanojevića. U sastavu ove bolnice učestvovao je u povlačenju i iskrcao se na Krf. Odlukom srpskog sanitetaa, Đorđe Mihailović je raspoređen da prati srpske vojnike na oporavak u Tunis. U bolnicama za srpske vojnike, pod francuskim rukovodstvom, radili su srpski lekari I medicinari. Đorđe Mihailović će u Tunisu provesti skoro tri godine. Posle rata, u Beču je završio medicinu, specijalizirao pedijatriju i anesteziologiju. Po povratku u Niš bio je lekar Moravske banovine, „Sokolskog društva NIŠ“ kao i u Blacu nakon II svetskog rata. Nosilac više odlikovanja, ostao je upamćen kao veliki narodni lekar i ktitor niškog zdravstva.

The marmor stele from Delos adorned the monument offered to Apollo by Antigonus Doson, the Macedonians and their allies in order to commemorate the great victory of Sellasia over the Spartans (summer ...222 BC). The text suggests that the money gained from a partial selling of the booty were allocated for the erection of the statue and the inscription. The dedication bears testimony to one of the last public act performed by Doson at the same time as the Greek cities celebrated him as benefactor and saviour and granted him divine honours just before his death in 221 BC.
