This is the second part of the article on the work and life of A. R. Luria in Kisegach, which presents the unique document The Work Diary. This notebook was used by him for daily records of patient studies. It is kept in the family archive of Luria. Comments on the Diary are written on the basis of his autobiographical book (Luria A. R., 1982; Cole, Levitin, & Luria, 2006); the memoirs of his daughter, Elena Luria, in her book about her father (Luria E. A., 1994); as well as the memoirs of his colleagues. This part of the article publishes entries in the Diary from March 15 to November 13, 1942. The introduction to the records tells about the scientist's colleagues who worked with him in the hospital. These are such well-known psychologists as B. V. Zeigarnik, A. V. Zaporozhets, S. Ya. Rubinstein, E. S. Bein, O. P. Kaufman. The article explains the reason for the myth that during the war A. V. Zaporozhets worked only in the hospital in Kaurovka under the supervision of A. N. Leontiev. In this regard, we are talking about the Kharkov School of Psychology, the areas of work of L. S. Vygotsky, A. R. Luria and A. N. Leontiev in the years 1932-1934. In general, the article shows the intensive practical and theoretical work of the scientists in Kisegach hospital.

This article reframes the critical discourse around the ‘Greek Weird Wave’ using an approach informed by theoretical work on cosmopolitanism. Focussing on Yorgos Lanthimos’s Dogtooth (2009) and Athena-Rachel Tsangari’s Attenberg (2010), the critical interpretation of the role of the family is radically rethought. I argue that the privileging of allegorical readings of the family in the Weird Wave films constitutes a form of critical denial of the deeply problematic and specifically Greek ways in which the family (dys)functions. I challenge the absolute and exclusive power that the Greek ‘crisis’ holds over interpretations and evaluations of Weird Wave films, which discursively displaces the problems of the family to broader sociopolitical frameworks. In reclaiming the importance of literal readings of the films, I reposition them as manifestations of a specific cosmopolitan disposition, that of introspection, a process of self-examination that overcomes denial. In turn, the critical reframing of the films outlines the contours of a complex agonistics of introspective cosmopolitanism, an inward investigative disposition that is dialectically linked to cosmopolitan positioning. Jean François Lyotard’s 1989 theorization of the oikos (home/house) provides a conceptual model for understanding the family (oikogeneia), which, in its Greek specificities, is central to the films under discussion.

Axisymmetric vortex rings which propagate steadily through an unbounded ideal fluid at rest at infinity are considered. The vorticity in the ring is proportional to the distance from the axis of symmetry. Recent theoretical work suggests the existence of a one-parameter family, [npar ]2 ≥ α ≥ 0 (the parameter α is taken as the non-dimensional mean core radius), of these vortex rings extending from Hill's spherical vortex, which has the parameter value α = [npar ]2, to vortex rings of small cross-section, where α → 0. This paper gives a numerical description of vortex rings in this family. As well as the core boundary, propagation velocity and flux, various other properties of the vortex ring are given, including the circulation, fluid impulse and kinetic energy. This numerical description is then compared with asymptotic descriptions which can be found near both ends of the family, that is, when α → [npar ]2 and α → 0.

RESUMEN: Este artículo comprende un estudio minucioso sobre el concepto de realimentación. Se describe su desarrollo histórico, su presencia en diversas disciplinas científicas —en particular en las CC. Sociales—, analizando su influencia en el orden de las ideas y los métodos, lo que le ha llevado a convertirse en una de las principales metáforas científicas de la actualidad. Su incorporación al lenguaje pedagógico, por vía de las corrientes sistémicas y cibernéticas, merece un estudio crítico, en el que se describan los niveles a los que opera, su relación con otros conceptos y procesos, y su posición central en las modernas teorías de la educación; con especial hincapié en las aportaciones del Dr. Sanvisens.SUMMARY: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the concept feedback. From Watt «Governor» (1790) and the initial theoretical work developed by J. Maxwell (1868), including the cybernetics concepts developed in the fifties, in this paper we revise the conceptual influences and the methodological and thecnological applications in different disciplines, with special attention to the Social Sciences field. The feedback concept is related with other concepts such as: The Systems Dynamic's, the Biofeedback thecnics, the sociological systemic models, the family therapy... Thorough discussion is deserved to the application of this concept in the Educational Theory field. Specifically we analyze the contributions made by the humanistic cybernetic proposed by A. Sanvisens.

In this article, we examine the instructional theoretical work on the formation of family-moral values ​​of students, conduct experimental work on a small experimental site and consider its concrete results. Methods were used to determine students' moral awareness, understanding family as value, family relationships, ability to control family conflicts, and active involvement in family decision-making. Theoretically, content analysis, synthesis, generalization, survey, diagnostics, and the like were organized. Based on the above, it is very effective to use Rokeach's method of "valuing the value". We present a percentage index based on the traditional relationships of the family institution in the form of a forming experiment organized on the basis of the "Psychological trainings for family life" series, which is organized in the right direction, in conjunction with the new social and economic conditions within the modern society.   Keywords: Instruction, family values, technology, cultural relations, individuality, typology of values;

Earlier empirical and theoretical work has suggested that there is a relationship between higher hypnotic susceptibility and severity of childhood punishment. The present study examines the hypnotizability of young adults who were physically abused as children. The hypnotizability scores of three groups were compared: an abused group whose members were physically abused before the age of ten ( n = 23); a family-disruption group whose members reported divorce or death in the family before age ten, but no physical abuse ( n = 27); a baseline/control group whose members reported neither abuse nor family disruption ( n = 346). The abused group was significantly more hypnotizable than either the family-disruption or baseline/control group. The effect was substantial, with 65 percent of abused subjects in the high hypnotizable classification (compared to 14.8% and 35.3% for the family disruption and baseline/control groups respectively). Two explanations of this relationship are offered, and suggestions are made for future investigations.

ABSTRACTThe 2004 reform of the family code in Morocco has been held as one of the most significant liberal reforms undertaken in the country, and has led scholars and policy makers to argue that this demonstrates the democratic progress Morocco and the King are making. At the same time, the role of the women's movement in getting the reform approved has seemingly confirmed that associational life is crucial in promoting democratisation. This paper, building on theoretical work questioning the linkage between a strong civil society and democratic outcomes, argues that civil society activism does not necessarily lead to democratisation, and may reinforce authoritarian practices. Far from demonstrating the centrality of civil society, the process through which the new family code was passed highlights the crucial institutional role of the monarch, whose individual decision-making power has driven the whole process. Authoritarianism finds itself strengthened in Morocco despite the liberal nature and outcome of the reform.

At the beginning of the early modern age, philosophers, religious and political thinkers writing on economics had to deal with categories that were still based on the religious certainties of the medieval West, and with a paradigm built on Aristotelian dialectic between oikos (the family economy) and chrèmata (wealth). From this frame, articulated and innovative investigations on the contemporary economic world were born in the late Middle Ages of Europe: but up until the late seventeenth century, at least, the Aristotelian paradigm remained a rigid cage for most of the writers. Yet, both the impact of some theoretical work on the relationship between religion and economy, and some significant changing in European scenario started to break this cage. Evidence of a shifting of paradigm could be detected even in Counter-Reformation authors like the Italian Giovanni Botero.

The present article is about A. R. Luria’s work and life in Kisegach. It is based on his autobiographical book (Luria A. R., 1982; Cole, Levitin, & Luria, 2006 [in Eng.]); on the memories of his daughter, Elena Luria, in her book about her father (Luria E. A., 1994); and on a unique document in the Luria family archive: “The Work Diary. Kisegach, 1942–1943”. The general notebook under this name served him for daily records about the examinations of patients and comments on them. This article publishes records entered in the Diary from 19th January until 13th March, 1942.In the introduction to the publication of “The Work Diary” short biographical material is presented. It gives a description of how A. R. Luria met the beginning of the war, what tasks to create a rehabilitation hospital were assigned to him, how they were carried out. The article presents the memoirs of Luria’s daughter Elena (Lena) about the life of their family in Kisegach. It includes the memoirs of B. V. Zeigarnik and S. Ya. Rubinstein on the organization by Luria of labor workshops for the rehabilitation of movements of hand and arms in wounded soldiers. The text is provided with numerous illustrations.The main part consists of Luria’s daily records of patient examinations. Usually he studied from one to four patients. They were patients with aphasia syndromes, with apraxia, agnosia or concussion symptoms. Sometimes Luria gave commentaries to the observed symptoms. He noted the characteristic details of the symptoms and hypothesized the mechanisms of their occurrence. In general, the Work Diary shows the intense practical and theoretical work of the scientist while working in Kisegach.

China is a fast-developing country and at the same time a country where traditions play an important role. The society is also marked by centuries of upheavals that have affected individuals and families. The recent growth has brought millions of people out of poverty and increased possibilities for young people and families, but this development has also brought new tensions and conflicts affecting individuals and families. Ingrained in Chinese society and culture is a system which specifies implicit rules and patterns of rules, obligations, and responsibilities on social relations between men and women and between generations. Generally, family interests are more important than that of the individuals, and when the two are in conflict with each other, the family interests win. This article focuses on how the complex sociocultural situation affects individuals and families and how this manifest itself in the clinical situation. The aim is to highlight some aspects of the reality met in clinical encounters in China and to argue for an openness about how context always plays a role both in clinical and theoretical work.
