Beyond Content of Conversation:The Role of Conversational Form in the Emergence and Regulation of Social Structure
Social interaction is pivotal to the formation of social relationships and groups. Much is known about the importance of interaction content (e.g., the transfer of information). The present review concentrates on the influence of the act of conversing on the emergence of a sense of solidarity, more or less independently of the content. Micro-characteristics of the conversation (e.g., brief silences, smooth turn-taking) can profoundly influence the emergence and the regulation of relationships and of solidarity. We suggest that this might be because the form of a conversation is experienced as an expression of the social structures within the group. Because of its dynamic nature, moreover, the form of conversation provides group members with a continuous gauge of the group’s structural features (e.g., its hierarchy, social norms, and shared reality). Therefore, minor changes in the form and flow of group conversation can have considerable consequences for the regulation of social structure
Re-inventing political order?:A discourse view on the European Community and the abolition of border controls in the second half of the 1980s
Elastisitas Penyerapan Tenaga Kerja Di Provinsi Sumatera Selatan
This study aims to analyze the elasticity of employment in the Province of South Sumatra during the period 2011-2015. The calculation of elasticity of labor absorption is obtained from the comparison between the percentage of labor growth to the percentage of economic growth. The data used are secondary data that is the growth of labour and the growth of South Sumatra’s GDP. Elasticity ofemployment is used to see how big the response changes in the amount of labor that occurs due to economic growth. The results showed that during the period 2011-2015 the elasticity of employment of South Sumatra Province more in inelastic category, except in year 2013 the category is elastic. This means that economic growth has less responsive to stimulate the increasing number of workers. The percentage of employment growth is less than the percentage of economic growth. In addition, economic growth has not been consistent to be one of the factors triggering stable employment in several districts / cities in South Sumatra. Keywords: Economic Growth, Employment Absorption, Elasticity of employmen
Risk and Uncertainty Management for Sustainable Supply Chains
Supply chains are the backbone of the global economy as well as a major influence on the social and natural business environment. In today’s globalized world, every organization is part of at least one supply chain. Furthermore, the majority of everyday transactions - withdrawing money, eating in a restaurant, shopping for food or clothes, ordering something online - involves participation in a supply chain. As such, supply chains are the channels via which resources, services, and information flow from the originating supplier to the end user. A company’s relationships across their supply chains combined with increasing globalization have facilitated worldwide operations, better communication, and the ability to integrate enlarged product variety and greater consumer choice. Simultaneously, the emergence of longer and more complex supply chains and relationships, shorter product lifecycles, increased competitive pressure, and environmental uncertainty have exposed every business to the risk of unexpected disturbances that can lead to financial losses and in some cases firm closures. Our world is increasingly uncertain and our supply chains more vulnerable than ever
Are area-level and individual-level socioeconomic factors associated with self-rated health in adult urban citizens? Evidence from Slovak and Dutch cities
Background: Evidence shows that living in disadvantaged areas is associated with poor health. This may be due to the socioeconomic (SE) characteristics of both these residents and the areas where they live. Evidence regarding this on Central European (CE) countries is scarce. Our aim was to assess whether the prevalence of poor self-rated health (SRH) was higher in deprived urban areas, whether this can be explained by individual SE status (SES) and whether this differed between Slovakia and the Netherlands per age group.Methods: We examined the association of urban-level data and individual-level SE factors from different urban areas in different countries (Slovakia, the Netherlands) using comparable urban health indicators and area indicators. We also obtained unique data from the EU-FP7 EURO-URHIS 2 project.Results: Multilevel logistic regression showed that poor SRH was associated with area deprivation in both countries. Regarding age by country, poor SRH occurred more frequently in the more deprived areas for the younger age group (>= 64) in the Netherlands but for the older age group (>= 65 years) in Slovakia. Moreover, Slovak citizens reported poor SRH significantly more often than Dutch residents. Individual SES was significantly associated with poor SRH in both age groups and both countries for most area-level SE measures.Conclusion: Individual SES is associated with SRH more strongly than area deprivation. Therefore, it is important to account for relative deprivation at an individual level when considering health-enhancing activities. Moreover, the effect of urban-area deprivation seems to differ between CE and WE countries.</p
Initial steps towards an evidence-based classification system for golfers with a physical impairment
Purpose: The present narrative review aims to make a first step towards an evidence-based classification system in handigolf following the International Paralympic Committee (IPC). It intends to create a conceptual framework of classification for handigolf and an agenda for future research. Method: Pubmed was searched on three themes: Classification in Paralympic sports, Performance determining factors in golf and Impact of impairments on golf performance. IPC-regulations were gathered on the IPC-website and their official publications. Results: In developing a classification system conform IPC-regulations, the main challenge is to identify the activity limitation caused by the impairment, not influenced by training, talent or motivation. Timing, accuracy and control, work per joint, range of motion, balance and flexibility are important performance determining factors in abled-bodied golf and should be considered when determining activity limitations in handigolf. Only five articles on handigolf were found, mainly addressing the asymmetric golf movement. Based on the present review, a conceptual framework for classification was developed, while a future research agenda was designated. The conceptual framework presents factors that are essential for sports performance categorized under technology, interface and athlete characteristics. It also includes impairment related factors essential for determining eligibility and classification. Ideally, measures to be used during classification need to be resistant against training, natural development of the athlete's talent and motivational changes. Conclusions: The conceptual framework and a multidimensional scientific research agenda will support further development of the knowledge base required for an evidence-based classification in handigolf, including multi-level analysis of player statistics, experimental analyses of biomechanics and modeling studies.Implications for RehabilitationThe main challenge in developing an evidence-based classification system conform IPC-regulations is defining eligibility criteria and sport classes based on activity limitation caused by only the impairment and not affected by training, talent and motivation. It is expected that a transparent classification system, a lively competition and admission to the Paralympic program will further promote participation in disabled golf.Timing, accuracy and control, work per joint, range of motion, balance and flexibility are of greater importance for golf performance in able-bodied golfers and expected to be of interest to incorporate in classification for handigolf.Side and level of amputation influence activity limitation in the asymmetric golf movement, and should be incorporated in classification.The proposed conceptual framework is fundamental to the research agenda that must further generate the knowledge-base to determine activity limitations caused by different impairments in handigolf and may serve as a guideline for other Paralympic sports in the development of evidence-based classification.</p
Dark Tourism (description of concept, trends, and types of travelers)
Interest in dark tourism is on the rise. Defined as tourism to sites associated with death, disaster and atrocity, this phenomenon has caught the attention of both the academic world and that of the wider public. This type of tourism has become a lucrative commercial practice creating products for monetary profit. Advanced technology generating time-space compression has helped spread this phenomenon, thus bringing death, disaster and atrocity live in people’s homes and in their living memories. Media, movies and accounts of breaking-news events help stimulate dark tourism, and the global-local juxtaposition represents a drive to this phenomenon. Dark tourists cannot, therefore, be totally divorced from the viewing public, which incorporates these media commoditizations into their lives and later seek tourist experiences to feed the sense of ‘familiarity’ provided by the media
