Global challenges facing plant pathology: multidisciplinary approaches to meet the food security and environmental challenges in the mid-twenty-first century by Michael Jeger, Robert Beresford, Clive Bock, Nathan Brown, Adrian Fox, Adrian Newton, Antonio Vicent, Xiangming Xu, Jonathan Yuen

“…In this review we emphasise, in particular: the multidisciplinary links between plant pathology and other disciplines; disease management, including precision agriculture, plant growth and development, and decision analysis and disease risk; the development and use of new and novel plant protection chemicals; new ways of exploiting host genetic diversity including host resistance deployment; a new perspective on biological control and microbial interactions; advances in surveillance and detection technologies; invasion of exotic and re-emerging plant pathogens; and the consequences of climate change affecting all aspects of agriculture, the environment, and their interactions. We draw conclusions in each of these areas, but in reaching forward over the next few decades, these inevitably lead to further research questions rather than solutions to the challenges we anticipate.…”

“…Abstract Background While an extensive body of research in palliative care exists on the experiences of grief and bereavement among family caregivers, much of this research is based on normative assumptions of who family caregivers are – housed, financially stable, and with extended family and/or friends to draw on for support. Research shows that in contexts of social disadvantage(e.g., homelessness and poverty, mental health and substance use concerns, racism and discrimination), social and community workers can become ‘defacto’ family and provide caregiving support at the end of life. …”

Formation of the "Self-Made-Man" Idea in the Context of the Christian Middle Ages by V. Y. Antonova, O. M. Korkh

SCHOOL TEXTBOOKS OF NATIONAL HISTORY AS AN INSTRUMENT OF THE MEMORY POLICY OF THE SOVIET STATE by Isabella S. Ogonovskaya

“…To achieve the goal, the following were studied: legal acts defining the target guidelines and structure of the education system, including history; the content of school textbooks on Russian history, which underwent numerous changes in connection with instructions received "from above"; controversial issues of Soviet historical science, reflected in the content of textbooks; stages of development of historical education in the country, the features of which were associated with political changes; pages of biographies of textbook authors, allowing us to see their relationships with the authorities, their attitude to the processes taking place in the country. This allowed us to draw conclusions that at each stage of development of Soviet society, school history textbooks were used as conductors of state policy, as an instrument of memory policy and a mechanism for interaction between the authorities and the education system, as a factor influencing the minds of the younger generation and a means of controlling the mentality of historians - authors of textbooks, as a mass book that subjectively assessed the past and provided guidelines for the future.…”
