Religion, religiosity and the social integration of immigrants in Australia and Canada
No full textMP3 audio recording, recorded 4 March 2008. Physical copy held by UTS Cosmopolitan Civil Societies Research Centre, City Campus, UTS SydneyThis seminar was a public lecture hosted by The Cosmopolitan Civil Societies Research Centre presented by Jeffrey Reitz, visiting Professor of Sociology R.F. Harney Professor of Ethnic, Immigration and Pluralism Studies Centre for International Studies from the University of Toronto, Canada.
Professor Reitz is the author of numerous publications and his most recent book is “Host Societies and the Reception of Immigrants. San Diego, CA: Center for Comparative Immigration Research, University of California, 2003.
Professor Jeffrey Reitz visited Australia in 2008 to do research on the employment integration of the children of immigrants for comparison with Canada and the United States.
This seminar tackles the social, cultural and political integration of immigrants into Canada since the 1970’s with a particular focus on the religious minorities that have been created by immigration from non-European sources, specifically focusing on Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus and Sikhs. Similar patterns of migration and integration have been documented in Australia during this time period
Contribuição ao estudo morfo-sedimentar de fundo da enseada de Ratones, Ilha de Santa Catarina, SC, Brasil
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Geografia.Este trabalho mostra os resultados do estudo morfológico e sedimentológico realizado no fundo da enseada de Ratones, localizada no setor noroeste da ilha de Santa Catarina (SC), e inserida no domínio costeiro da bacia hidrográfica de Ratones. A enseada constitui uma feição geomorfológica rasa, com águas calmas e profundidade média e máxima de 1,19m e 2m, respectivamente. Seu comprimento máximo é 2.155,1m; a largura máxima é 2.773,3m; sua área é 4,0269km2 e seu perímetro envolvente de 10,03km. Marés do regime de micro marés, que apesar de pequena amplitude exerce importante papel no transporte de sedimentos costeiros. Nos entornos da enseada ocorrem importantes ambientes de sedimentação e podem ser caracterizados pela sua origem, forma, tipos de depósito e cobertura vegetal específicos. Os depósitos reconhecidos estão relacionados aos marinho praiais, fluvial, estuários e paludial, todos com idade holocênica. Os 8 perfis batimétricos realizados no sentido NW-SE e NE-SW num total de 18,2km de linhas sondadas. Complementados pelo modelo digital de terreno (MDT), resultando num fundo relativamente plano com perfil assimétrico entre as margens opostas da ponta da Luz, a sul, e do pontal da Daniela, a noroeste. O gradiente batimétrico é mais acentuado nas proximidades do pontal da Daniela e a adjacente à desembocadura do rio Ratones. Na enseada foram reconhecidas 3 margens distintas quanto aos aspectos morfológicos, complementados por dados sedimentológicos e cobertura vegetal, denominadas de margem Noroeste-Norte, Norte-Leste e Sul. As fácies texturais de fundo da enseada de Ratones estão diretamente relacionadas com as rochas do embasamento cristalino e os depósitos e fácies da planície costeira, plataforma continental interna (baía Norte) e rios Ratones e Veríssimo. Os sedimentos de fundo foram classificados em 4 fácies de acordo com o tamanho granulométrico: arenosa; areno-lamosa; lamo-arenosa e lamosa. Os sedimentos arenosos concentram-se nas imediações do pontal da Daniela e desembocadura do rio Ratones, os sedimentos lamosos nos setores mais abrigados da enseadas e, os demais ocupam zonas transicionais entre as regiões dominadas por areias e lamas. Planilhas de dados sedimentológicos; mapa textural; mapas de teores de areia, silte e argila; mapas de teores de matéria orgânica e carbonato; mapas de variação do diâmetro médio, desvio padrão, assimetria e curtose; diagramas triangulares; histogramas de freqüência simples e gráficos de correlação entre as medidas de dispersão, complementam a sedimentologia de fundo da enseada de Ratones. A avaliação da taxa de sedimentação/erosão mostra que há influência da vegetação de marismas. Estes bancos atuam diretamente no fluxo de entrada das águas e dificultam a remobilização de materiais muito finos e arenosos. Nos pontos com cobertura vegetal o processo de sedimentação aumentou ou, no mínimo não ocorreu erosão. Mesmo em ambientes protegidos por barreiras naturais como o pontal da Daniela, foi verificado uma erosão completa dos sedimentos arenosos dos quadros em frente ao banco da marisma. Os agentes dinâmicos que regulam a dinâmica da enseada e são responsáveis pelos processos de transporte e deposição incluem: ventos dos quadrantes norte e sul, ondas geradas por estes vento, correntes de marés, deriva litorânea e a circulação fluvial

Investigating the chemical basis of functionality differences between beet and cane sugar sources in model egg white foams and other products
No full textThough often used interchangeably, researchers have identified differences in functionality between beet and cane sugar sources in some food products. For example, previous research reported sensory differences between meringue cookies made with beet and cane sugar. Beet sugar meringue cookies were more marshmallow-like than cane meringue cookies. However, these sensory differences have not been instrumentally quantified and the underlying cause has not been determined. Thus, the objective of this research was to instrumentally quantify and investigate the chemical basis for the sensory differences between beet and cane meringue cookies. To instrumentally quantify differences between beet and cane meringue cookies, moisture content and water activity was obtained for unbaked meringues and meringue cookies. Additionally, texture profile analysis, three point break analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry was carried out on beet and cane meringue cookies. To gain insight into factors causing differences between beet and cane meringue cookies, heat denatured sugar-egg gel texture, unbaked foam stability, and water loss during simulated baking were obtained. No meaningful difference was found between beet and cane meringues in moisture content, water activity, and foam stability prior to baking. After baking, however, beet meringue cookies where shown to have higher moisture content, water activity, and cohesiveness values, and lower hardness and force to break values. During simulated baking, cane meringues were shown to lose water notable faster than beet meringues, causing moisture and textural differences after baking. These differences during and after baking are likely associated with higher amounts of sulfite in beet sugar compared to cane sugar. Sulfite has been shown to inhibit browning and cleave disulfide bonds, which may causes functional differences egg white proteins during the baking of meringues. To account for differences between beet and cane sugar functionality, a longer baking time for beet sugar meringue cookies is required, though this may lead to undesirable browning and loss of foam volume. Additionally, functional differences between beet and cane sugar were explored in rock candy, crème brûlée, and angel food cakes. This work highlights differences in functionality between beet and cane sugar sources, and raises issues regarding sugar source choice, in addition to market price.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2018-08-01The student, Nicholas Reitz, accepted the attached license on 2016-07-07 at 14:05.The student, Nicholas Reitz, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2016-07-07 at 14:23.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2016-07-11 at 13:35.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #9799 on 2016-11-10 at 12:24:58Made available in DSpace on 2016-11-10T18:42:48Z (GMT).

Aspectos estruturais da vegetação, parâmetros foliares no manguezal de Ratones, Florianópolis, SC e suas relações com fatores abióticos
No full textTCC(graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Ciências Biológicas. Biologia.O presente estudo teve como objetivo levantar dados da estrutura do bosque em três áreas distintas do manguezal de Ratones, parâmetros foliares (comprimento, largura e área foliar) para as espécies estudadas e suas possíveis relações com fatores abióticos como pH, salinidade superficial e intersticial, oxigênio dissolvido e teor de matéria orgânica no sedimento. As estações de coleta foram chamadas de Pontal da Daniela, Ratones e Veríssimo, sendo que em cada uma delas, duas parcelas medindo 100 m² foram montadas e todas as árvores de Avicennia schaueriana, Laguncularia racemosa e Rhizophora mangle com diâmetro do caule acima de 2,5 cm foram contadas, estimada a altura, calculada a área basal, diâmetro médio, densidade relativa e absoluta, freqüência relativa e absoluta, coletada uma amostra de sedimento por parcela e uma folha verde por árvore. O sedimento amostrado foi analisado em laboratório (análise granulométrica e teor de matéria orgânica), as folhas foram identificadas com caneta de marcação permanente, medidas com régua milimetrada, digitalizadas e determinadas as áreas de cada. As folhas também foram pesadas em balança de precisão para determinação do peso fresco e posteriormente armazenadas em estufa durante 72 horas para determinação do peso seco. Os resultados da análise granulométrica variaram entre as estações, de arenoso na estação Pontal da Daniela a silte-argiloso na estação Veríssimo. Somente Avicennia schaueriana apareceu em todas as parcelas. Indivíduos de Rhizophora mangle só foram encontradas na estação Veríssimo. As variáveis bióticas e abióticas foram relacionadas entre si através do teste não-paramétrico de correlação de Spearman. O número de indivíduos por parcela teve correlação direta com a salinidade superficial, resultando que as parcelas de que tiveram maiores salinidades tiveram maior número de indivíduos. O tratamento estatístico empregado mostra correlação inversa entre a salinidade superficial e o diâmetro médio de Avicennia schaueriana. Houve correlação inversa também entre a salinidade superficial e a altura dos indivíduos dessa espécie. As áreas foliares, tanto de Avicennia schaueriana quanto de Laguncularia racemosa mostraram correlação inversa com a salinidade superficial. Somente Laguncularai racemosa mostrou correlação direta entre o teor de água das folhas e a salinidade intersticial

Deneys Reitz: “South African First, Dutchman Second” – A Case Study of the Evolution of South African Identity in South Africa in the First Half of the Twentieth Century
No full textThis thesis considers the life of Deneys Reitz, a South African soldier, author and politician who was a key member of the Afrikaner ruling elite in South Africa in the first half of the twentieth century. This was a seminal period in South African history, which included the formation of the new Union of South Africa in 1910. During this time, a distinctive new South African identity, known as “South Africanism” developed, centered around reconciliation between the two primary white linguistic groups in South Africa, and an acceptance of South Africa’s place within the British Empire. Over time, under the influence of his mentor and future Prime Minister Jan Smuts, Reitz became a fervent advocate of this new philosophy and an ardent Anglophile. Through a biographical examination of Reitz’s life and works (and that of certain of his contemporaries), this thesis considers the factors that influenced moderate Afrikaners like Reitz to embrace this new identity. It contends that these factors were complex and multifaceted, and, at least initially, had more to do with personal loyalties and internal Afrikaner politics than a genuine ideological belief in the importance of reconciliation and the values of Empire. In some cases, like Reitz and Smuts, the ideological belief evolved over time. However, this thesis argues that at the heart of many other moderate Afrikaners’ acceptance of South Africanism lay a more transactional trade-off – a willingness to reconcile with their English-speaking countrymen and accept British sovereignty, in exchange for a restoration and protection of Afrikaner political and cultural rights and the economic and security benefits of being part of the British Empire. For many Afrikaners (particularly those who didn’t necessarily share Reitz and Smuts’ Anglophilia) this trade-off was arguably made more palatable in the years between the two World Wars by the increasing degree of autonomy afforded to the Afrikaner-controlled South African government as a result of Britain’s slow-motion retreat from Empire after the First World War. This thesis further contends that a key motivating factor underpinning the philosophy of South Africanism was a belief in the necessity of white racial solidarity between Afrikaners and English South Africans of British origin, which was ultimately prioritized over other linguistic, ethnic and class divisions. Finally, this thesis considers the role played by moderate South African women in creating this new South African identity, with a particular focus on Deneys Reitz’s wife Leila (a strong advocate for women’s rights and South Africa’s first female parliamentarian). It argues that women, both South African and British, played a key role in encouraging Afrikaner / English reconciliation. It also seeks to show how white racial unity became an important justificatory factor in the fight for female rights such as suffrage and birth control, and ultimately helped ensure a political alignment across the gender divide.Extension Studie
Review: "Die Energiesicherheit Deutschlands und Polens im Kontext der EU" / Sybille Reitz. Leipzig: Leipziger Universitätsverlag, 2017. ISBN: 978-3-96023-071-7
No full textDie Energiesicherheit Deutschlands und Polens im Kontext der EU is the author's published master thesis. The aim of the book is to make a contribution to the ongoing discussion about the European Union's energy security strategy. Sybille Reitz's focus is on the cases of Germany and Poland, which are meant to represent "old" and "new" EU member states (p. 22). The author points out the differences and similarities of both cases and highlights potential solutions to improve energy security. While the analysis focuses on the 2000s and especially the first half of the 2010s, according to Reitz, however, the most significant difference between the Polish and German approaches to energy security results from their respective historical experiences
