O artigo retoma a trajetória do cinema realizado por diretores e coletivos indígenas no Brasil, com dedicação especial ao projeto Vídeo nas Aldeias, para explorar a hipótese de uma “crítica xamânica da economia política da imagem” (inspirada na reivindicação por Bruce Albert de uma “crítica xamânica da economia política da natureza”). Tomando duas categorias como transversais aos filmes — o antecampo e o extracampo —, buscamos nos mover pela questão: como o cinema pode assumir aspectos de um modo xamânico de conhecimento e tradução?

Background: With increasing number of dengue cases in Malaysia, it’s of utmost importance that immediate action be taken to limit the epidemic. Since dengue control is a behavioral problem, the knowledge, attitude and practice in population needs to be studied in order to control the disease. Hence, the aim of this study is to assess knowledge, attitude and practice regarding dengue and its associated factors among adult residents of Felda Sungai Panching Timur (SPT), Kuantan, Pahang, 2014. Method: A cross sectional study was carried out involving 265 adult respondents. A face to face interview questionnaire which was divided into 2 parts (Part A: Sociodemoghraphic; Part B: Knowledge, Attitude and Practice) was used. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, simple and multiple logistic regression. Results: 53.2% of the respondents had good knowledge about dengue and it was found that the main source of information from mass media (76.6%). However, only 43.4% were found to ha...

SPATIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF STREETS AS WALKABLE URBAN SPACES, BAĞDAT STREET CASE STUDY Zeynep YAZICIOĞLU İstanbul has gone through a very rapid change and transformation since 1950s. The growth in these last 50 years has shown strong acceleration entering the 21st century. When the effects of any change in public structure on physical environment and collective memory are considered, it is seen that many changes occur physically, socially, culturally, psychologically etc. To make this fast growth in İstanbul metropolitan city more comprehensible, it is essential to understand the dimensions of change in the neighbourhood. The Bagdat Street region, having a housing pattern comprising apartments (which are known as planned and legal housing units) and established totally with government housing laws, has an important place in collective memory. In addition to the tidy charasteristic, both Bagdat Street itself and the housing pattern that feeds and enlivens it, also show some degree of ...

According to a widespread opinion shared by the vast majority of historians, instances of aggression using pathogen weapons constitute extremely rare events in human history. Similarly, students of human behaviour tend to believe that their science plays no role in explaining this phenomenon, which is held to be exceptional and abnormal. Contrary to this dominant view, I argue that Hamiltonian spite -like Hamiltonian altruism -is an inherent part of the human behavioural repertoire and it includes the use of pathogens for spiteful purposes. This paradigm is supported by the following observations. The use of pathogens as weapons emerged far before the scientific understanding of the nature of infections and epidemics, though it has been underrepresented in written history ever since. It is also present in our expectations concerning the likely behaviour of an enemy and it is also a frequent component of threats. Several languages appear to bear linguistic references to our motivation for biological aggression in profanity. Finally, given that wartime epidemics kill people at a rate comparable to (or exceeding) that of mechanical weapons, all wars fought in recorded history incorporated an element of aggression through biological means. On the basis of these arguments, I claim that the motivation for biological aggression is an inherent and common aspect of past and present human behaviour.
