“Let Me Tell You Some Stories, and You Will Record Them”: Dan Ben-Amos and the Study of Jewish Folklore and Ethnology
Get PDFDan Ben-Amos (1934–2023) was associated with groundbreaking work beginning during the 1960s on concepts of context and performance and the paradigm shift in folkloristics with his groundbreaking essay “Toward a Definition of Folklore in Context.” His odyssey from Israel to the United States, including formative experiences as a youth absorbing ideas about social reality and Jewish folklore as counterculture, has a profound influence on an equally profound shift in the understanding of Jewish experience as well as on the globalization of folkloristics as a discipline. In addition to interpreting his culminating work of the Folktales of the Jews series of books, this essay shows the continuation of his legacy in other projects he initiated or envisioned
Learning from Fairy Tales, Collective Action, and Cultural Excavation: An Interview with Jack Zipes
No full textBy asking Jack Zipes about his critical genealogies, political formation, scholarly interventions, and multipronged projects in fairy-tale studies, the Marvels & Tales editorial team seeks to contribute to a fuller understanding of Jack Zipes’s long-term engagement with fairy tales as a scholar, storyteller, writer, and teacher
The Right to Be Heard: Young People’s Participation in Policy Making and the Power of Storytelling
No full textThis article explores the role of storytelling in increasing young people’s participation in policy making. The relevance of Article 12 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child is discussed, followed by the history of young people’s active participation in human rights movements. The theoretical frameworks around political participation and the power of storytelling are reviewed. Six case studies are presented, including two from Canada, one from Indonesia, and three from the United States. Finally, findings suggest that storytelling has the potential to bring young people’s voices to the forefront of the human rights issues affecting their lives and to empower them to recognize their individual and collective agency
Cybersecurity, Image-Based Control, and Process Design and Instrumentation Selection
Get PDFWithin an Industry 4.0 framework, a variety of new considerations are of increasing importance, such as securing processes against cyberattacks on the control systems or utilizing advances in image processing for image-based control. These new technologies impact relationships between process design and control. In this work, we discuss some of these potential relationships, beginning with a discussion of side channel attacks and what they suggest about ways of evaluating plant design and instrumentation selection, along with controller and security schemes, particularly as more data is collected and there is a move toward an industrial Internet of Things. Next, we highlight how the 3D computer graphics software tool set Blender can be utilized to analyze a variety of considerations related to ensuring safety of plant operation and facilitating the design of assemblies with image-based sensing
Lyapunov-Based Cyberattack Detection for Distinguishing Between Sensor and Actuator Attacks
Get PDFControl-theoretic cyberattack detection strategies are control strategies where control theory can be used in the design of the detection policies and analysis of stability properties with and without cyberattacks. This work provides a step toward understanding how to diagnose cyberattacks using control-theoretic cyberattack detection mechanisms. Specifically, we analyze the conditions under which a control-theoretic cyberattack detection strategy developed in our prior work to handle detection of simultaneous actuator and sensor attacks can be extended to distinguish between whether attacks are occurring on sensors or actuators. We present and evaluate heuristic concepts for attempting to diagnose sensor attacks; these again demonstrate the utility of control-theoretic diagnosis policies and lead to further suggestions for such control-theoretic policies
