Caste and Migration: Insights from Study of Migrant Men from Rural Uttar Pradesh

Caste and Migration: Insights from Study of Migrant Men from Rural Uttar Pradesh

Caste and Migration: Insights from Study of Migrant Men from Rural Uttar Pradesh

Author(s): Ruchi Singh / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2023

Keywords: Caste; Employment; Occupation; Migration; Rural Men;

In its own particular way, India is a tremendously diverse nation. In a nation like India, where villages are frequently separated into caste-based parts, the caste system plays a very important role. Despite having achieved independence for such a long time, caste continues to play a significant role in shaping power dynamics, access to material resources, and even employment possibilities in rural India. Scholars have long been interested in the significance of caste in rural India, and numerous attempts have been made to comprehend the function of the caste system and its connections to migration. However, there hasn't been much research done in Uttar Pradesh, despite being the state with the highest male out-migration rate. Caste and male migration from rural Uttar Pradesh have received little research. In light of this context, the study will make an effort to comprehend the relationship between caste and migration in rural Uttar Pradesh. To meet the objective, a primary survey of 150 households in Azamgarh, the district with the highest male out-migration, was conducted. Data analysis and presentation have been done using simple statistical methods. Study found that male migrants from the village's higher castes tend to have advanced degrees and work mostly in skilled occupations. Caste affiliation frequently affects the availability of economic opportunities in rural Uttar Pradesh. More agricultural and non-farm possibilities must be created in the state's rural areas in order to close this gap. The MNREGA should be implemented well since it will be a significant step toward equal accessibility to all work possibilities. Giving the lower class of the village vocational and educational training needs to be prioritized more. Another intriguing finding of the study is that a considerable degree of educational attainment is supporting the reduction of disparities among different castes.

Utilization of Non-verbal Communication in the Engine Room Training - Basic Research on Hand Signals Among Monocultural Crew on Board

Utilization of Non-verbal Communication in the Engine Room Training - Basic Research on Hand Signals Among Monocultural Crew on Board

Author(s): Nagisa Matsushima,Asami Shimada,Emi Yutaka / Language(s): English / Issue: 6s/2023

Keywords: non-verbal communication; engine room training; onboard training; muti-cultural crew onboard

Accidents are likely to occur in an environment where work is done with teamwork by multiple crew members due to lack of communication, especially in a multicultural environment. Therefore, if there are internationally common maritime hand signals, it would contribute to reduction of human error among multicultural crews on board. As basic research on utilization of hand signals among multicultural crew on board, we invented several common hand signals. Furthermore, as a first step in an experiment to verify the effectiveness of hand signals during teamwork operation in engine room, we conducted the experiment in a mono-cultural environment through onboard training on a training ship. Our target task was practical onboard training for main engine start-up procedure in engine room because it required a lot of multitasking and teamwork. We studied the effectiveness and improvement of use of hand signals through questionnaires and interviews conducted with cadets and onboard instructors.

Author(s): Ismail Cicek,Burak Cavusoglu,Cagri Berk Guler,Murat Yapici / Language(s): English / Issue: 6s/2023

Keywords: engine room simulator; online training; maritime education; remote

In the age of technology, changes are experienced in many areas such as globalization, information society, new basic technology, the spread of the Internet, and the realization of competition on a global scale. New methods used in education and training have been developed and kept up with technological developments. With the widespread use of the Internet, online and remote training has become more possible than ever. Technology was ready for online education and training for the past decades, yet the COVID-19 pandemic caused the traditional training to be disrupted and training institutions had to carry out studies for traditional training to be conducted online and remotely. This caused a paradigm change in the training methods. Online or remote education, even in training using the engine room simulator (ERS), has become more popular as an alternative to traditional classroom teachings, even though the pandemic is disappearing. Additionally, the progress in autonomous ships and recent regulatory studies indicates the importance of a better understanding of the engineering data in remote or autonomous ship operations. The authors have been offering Engine Room Simulator (ERS) training courses using online methods since the first semester of 2020, totaling six semesters of online training so far. This paper presents the online training process used in courses including the technological setup and method of teaching and assessment. Experiences and lessons learned by the lecturers in providing operational and management level ERS courses and feedback from students are examined and presented. The use of IMO Model Course 2017 Edition became helpful as it describes exercises for each training objective in accordance with IMO STCW 2010. An Engine Room Simulator (ERS) called Ship ERS or SERS™ was utilized as the remote training tool in the pilot implementation of these courses that were spread over two semesters. The advantages and disadvantages of online ERS training was presented and discussed. A particular and interesting observation has been that the students could have longer duration of exercise opportunities when using SERS™ in the remote training than in traditional ones.

Modelling of Maritime Cyber Security Education and Training

Author(s): Gizem Kayisoglu,Pelin Bolat,Emre Duzenli / Language(s): English / Issue: 6s/2023

Keywords: maritime cyber security; MET; maritime cyber education; SEM

The existence of sophisticated and integrated cyberspace aboard ships with information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) makes cybersecurity a crucial concern for the maritime sector. The marine sector has benefited greatly from information and communication technologies, but they have also made ship systems and maritime infrastructure more susceptible to cyberattacks. Cyberattacks on ships have the potential to result in fatalities, severe financial losses, environmental damage, and other negative effects. A model course or specification for maritime cyber security education and training through the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) 1978 has not yet been published by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), despite the fact that MSC.428 mandates cyber security risk management in the safety management system on ships to combat cyber-attacks and improve cyber resistance in maritime environments. The Analytic Hierarchical Process (AHP) technique is used in this work to offer a model for a curriculum for cyber security in the Maritime Education and Training (MET) system. It is possible to identify each competency's priority in the MET system's cyber security curriculum by comparing the relative weights assigned to each one. The results of the research provide the Met Institutions with the ability to be proactive and include cyber security knowledge and abilities into proposed curricula.

Enhancing the Globalmet Training Record Book with the Infusion of the Book of Knowledge

Author(s): Mao Tze Bayotas / Language(s): English / Issue: 6s/2023

Keywords: maritime education and training; training record book; global maritime professional; shipboard training

The Training Record Book (TRB) is an essential document cadets use during their shipboard training. The TRB guides the student and the shipboard training officer, ensuring cadets attain the necessary competencies under the STCW Tables A-III/1 and II/1. The limitation of the TRB is that it is dominated by the psychomotor domain of learning. At a forum of the International Association of Maritime Universities (IAMU) in 2020, the most in-demand skill by 2050 is soft skills, followed by technological skills. This entails the development of not only psychomotor, but also cognitive and affective domains. In addition, the skills and competencies needed will go beyond the technical competencies stated in the STCW. The methodology utilized a qualitative design with an exploratory concept wherein the Book of Knowledge (BoK) was incorporated in the cross-referencing of the learning outcomes, and the TRB tasks develop a more holistic, comprehensive, and future-proof shipboard training.

Keywords: maritime education; case study methodology; soft skills in the maritime sector

Maritime academies, maritime universities and Departments of Business Administration which specialize in the Shipping Sector face several challenges when preparing students to meet workplace demands in an increasingly complex, knowledge and technology-focused environment. Students usually latter lack generic skills requested by employers such as: critical thinking, creativity, problem solving, communication and teamwork. The present paper presents the innovative aspects of the ISOL-MET (Innovative Soft Skills to Maritime Education and Training) project, meant to bridge the well-known gap in these specific skillsets. The innovative aspects in question cover but are not limited to the content of the courses, their design, as well as the teaching methodology deployed. More specifically, the case study methodology, not so common in the shipping industry, was employed in the Innovative Soft Skills to Maritime Education and Training framework. It involved the development of cases of real incidents occurring both ashore and on-board, recorded through the participation of stakeholders and validated as to content by Panels of Experts and Associate Partners to guarantee their correspondence to the industry's needs. Concerning the teaching methodology, a blend of problem solving and competency-based learning processes were put to use, so that the attitude of the professors as well as the mentality of students would be creatively challenged. The paper describes in detail the methodologies employed and features evaluative feedback from the Intensive Study Program which took place in Greece.

Author(s): Valentina Grancharova,Siyana Lutzkanova / Language(s): English / Issue: 6s/2023

Keywords: maritime education; training of seafarers; digitalization and soft skills management

The maritime education is generally developed in two directions: training of seafarers and port specialists. Nowadays, the shipping business is changing rapidly and in the era of digitalization the working staff should be able to use computerized information systems and to understand the capabilities of automated programs in order to respond to existing and future requirements in this area. The main goal is to prepare highly skilled personnel trained to work in continuous change in the digital era. The current state of the job market for maritime personnel requires the introduction of new approaches and more practically directed learning methods. The acquisition of the basic science and fundamental engineering courses required for seafarers or port specialists are not sufficient. They need to achieve more practical and cognitive skills throughout their education and training courses. This paper discusses some innovative methods and approaches used for learning and training considering important changes and ongoing digitalization in the maritime industry combined with necessary soft skills management. The proposed adaptive self-correcting model of training course is developed based on the authors’ experience in maritime education with students and on empirical method of research and system analyses performed with seafarers and port specialists with long practical experience.

Keywords: educational organizations; management; life cycle of organizations; organizational aging; entrepreneurship in education

One of the important aspects of organizational functioning is the adaptation process. Classically, the process is seen as adaptation to changes in the environment. and a factor for effective functioning. The publication presents the adaptation process as a cause of organizational aging - a classic problem of organizational development. As social systems, organizations go through stages analogous to biological systems. This presentation examines the specifics of the development process of organizations using a model representing the life cycle of an organizational system. The organization faces daily problems of different nature. In the stages of its life cycle, when it succeeds in dealing with problems, we see organizational growth. Over time, as a result of a declining ability to make adequate decisions, the organization reaches decline. There are a number of techniques for returning organizations to their creative period. In this context, this publication presents entrepreneurship as a tool for organizational renewal and modernization of educational systems. The conclusions drawn are supported by a study of a model organization Nikola Vaptsarov Naval Academy. The main research method applied is statistical analysis.

METAPHORICAL FRAMING OF CHILDREN’S DIGITAL MEDIA ADDICTION IN MEDIA DISCOURSE

Author(s): Mersina Mujagić,Alma Pehlivanović / Language(s): English / Issue: 13/2023

Keywords: digital addiction; conceptual metaphor; deliberate metaphor; metaphor identification;

The paper investigates figurative construal of children’s excessive use of electronic devices in articles that tackle the issues of children’s media addiction, as well as concentration and attention span, which are considered to be affected by this excessive use of technology. In giving their opinion on the topic, authors of articles resort to the use conceptual metaphor – a cognitive device where more abstract concept (a target domain) is being understood through the use of another, more concrete concept (a source domain). Authentic language data reveal the use of metaphorical linguistic expressions such as ‘digital overdose’ and ‘electronic cocaine’, which send a disturbing message that children are ‘overdosing’. This detailed analysis aims to investigate: (a) the types of metaphor (according to Steen’s 2010 three-dimensional model of metaphor analysis) in articles on children’s media addiction; (b) whether ADDICTION metaphors are dominant and deliberate; (c) their communicative function – the rhetorical function intended by the authors, as well as their rhetorical effects on recipients (notably, parents);(d) the implications of their combination with other metaphors within a sentence or a paragraph; (e) the possibility of resorting to alternative metaphor use.

An Ecofeminist Reading of Fleur And Lulu in Louise Erdrich’s Novel Tracks

Author(s): Valentina MARKASOVIĆ / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2023

Keywords: Louise Erdrich; Tracks; Fleur Pillager; Lulu Nanapush; ecofeminism;

Tracks by Louise Erdrich is a novel dealing with the struggles of Native Americans at the beginning of the twentieth century, but within that broader frame—it also speaks out about the connection between the colonial oppression of nature and the subjugation of women. Although some ecocritical and ecofeminist readings of the novel, especially relating to Fleur Pillager, are available, not much has been written on the character of Lulu Nanapush as presented in Tracks. Therefore, this article analyses Fleur Pillager and Lulu Nanapush to discover how the tenets of ecofeminism are implemented in the novel. The research relies on the theories of different ecofeminist and postcolonial authors. After establishing the colonial background of conjoined oppression of women and nature, the article focuses on how Fleur embodies and protects nature, while Lulu begins to lose her connection to nature due to her colonial background. Thus, strategic essentialism of the kind could be understood as having been implemented with the aim of underlining the exploitation of Native American women by settler colonizers, as well as the eradication of nature.

Affective Turn or Ecological Turn: Mary Oliver’s Poetry Revisited

Author(s): Elmira Bazregarzadeh / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2023

Keywords: Mary Oliver; affect theory; ecocriticism; liminality; affect;

When it comes to discussions about affects, human beings become the center of attention. Yet, there are times when we find ourselves in some sort of in‐betweenness, where we cannot resolve whether we exert our influence on the non‐humans, or it is the non‐humans that trigger our bodies to respond in a certain way. The liminality witnessed at such times sheds light on the overlapping tendencies between ecocriticism and affect theory and encourages us to probe this issue more deeply. Accordingly, one may claim that a case study of Mary Oliver’s poems can fulfill the main objective of this short study regarding the fact that the mutuality of affect theory and ecocriticism can pave the way for gaining further insight into investigation of her poems, stemming from the fact that the speaker‐poet’s body and mind are the intersections of affective encounters with the rhythms of nature. The main conclusion that can be drawn from this research is that the application of the selected approach to Mary Oliver’s poetry will offer a workable solution to the mind/body dualism, whereby we witness the formation of various identities as a result of the effect of actions on other bodies and affective states.

Historical Metafiction: Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan Novels as a Postmodern Rethinking of History

Author(s): Yasaman Taheri,Ali Salami / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2023

Keywords: Neapolitan Novels; Elena Ferrante; Linda Hutcheon; historical metafiction; postmodern theory;

The Neapolitan Novels (2011–14), translated into English by Ann Goldstein, are a prime example of postmodern literature, distinguished by Elena Greco’s unique style of narration, structurally and ideologically. Elena Ferrante utilizes multiple narrative techniques, including unreliable narration, self‐reflexivity, and paradoxes, to challenge existing literary and historical narratives’ rigidity and present various possible ways of retelling history within the text. This study draws on Linda Hutcheon’s postmodern theories of history and historical metafiction to examine the representation of history in the Neapolitan Novels. Specifically, it analyzes the novels’ metatextual, intertextual, and metanarrative aspects, exploring how they challenge traditional historical narratives and present alternative perspectives on the past. By providing insights into the representation of history in postmodern literature, this study contributes to the broader discourse on the relationship between history and fiction in contemporary literature.

Modern Theater from Aesthetic Perspectives: Negation, Aesthetic Truth, and Temporal Dialectics in Eugene O’neill’s Long Day’s Journey Into Night

Author(s): Seyedeh Sara Foroozani,Bahee Hadaegh / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2023

Keywords: Long Day’s Journey into Night; Eugene O’Neill; Theodor Adorno; Aesthetic Theory; negation; truth; temporal dialectics;

Modern aesthetics is fascinated by the quality of empirical expressions in art, where the most unattainable forms of experiences seek refuge to survive through temporal dialectics. Whereas modern art endeavors to transcend its inherent experience of suffering through negating the sociopolitical reality of the imposed suppressive pain, Theodor Adorno’s Aesthetic Theory associates itself with the study of a non‐ discursive form of experience that refers to the transient nature of a multilayered truth, compromising a self‐reflexive and subjectively temporal essence, to which all aesthetic questions terminate. Correspondingly, the current paper aims at approaching Eugene O’Neill’s mental theater from a new perspective, acknowledging the significance of temporal dialectics in modern aesthetics. Accordingly, the current research studies Eugene O’Neill’s Long Day’s Journey into Night based on the elements of temporal dialectics and aesthetic negation, confirming the significance of these elements in detecting the ultimate aesthetic truth in the works of literature.

The main interrelationship of Croatian-Hungarian political relations, from the Hungarian perspective, from 1990 to 2021

Author(s): Lóránt Bali / Language(s): English / Issue: 7/2022

Keywords: regime change; Croatia; Croatian-Hungarian relations; politics;

With the break-up of the Soviet Union and the disintegration of its federation systems (Warsaw Pact, CSTO), the bipolar world system came to an end. In between – the western borders of Europe slowly but surely moved eastwards. After the change of regime, Hungary quickly recognised that Croatia could be a key partner in the pursuit of its geopolitical interests, as evidenced by the fact that it was one of the first countries to recognise its independence. The experience of historical coexistence from a common past was a significant factor in this. Over the past thirty years, Croatian-Hungarian relations have been balanced. They have been able to find appropriate solutions to common challenges that have arisen. The situation of national minorities is satisfactory. The Hungarian government’s approach to European domestic policy differs from that of Croatia. We insist more strongly on preserving our nation-state competences within the Union. The aim of this study is to present the developments of the last thirty years.
