Linguistic Purism

Abstract Unlike communities of speakers of other Romance languages such as French and Spanish, it has often been noticed that many Italian speakers are not particularly concerned by the inflow of foreign (mainly English) words. One reason for this, according to some scholars, is that standard Italian does not stir up linguistic identity for many native users, while English enjoys great prestige as the international language. In this paper, positions on neologisms of foreign origin are illustrated, using recently updated monolingual Italian dictionaries and also comments on neologisms collected from blogs and websites. Although they have a different status and degree of representativeness, the latter respond faster than dictionaries to doubts concerning the use of loans in Italian texts.

Terrorist Events

AbstractSince Public Theology for the 21st Century was first published, the world has witnessed the terrorist events of 9/11 and is now experiencing a growing economic crisis. While the contributors to the volume could not have addressed these events specifi cally, the discussions within the book contain valuable analyses of democracy, active citizenship and the notion of social capital that are highly pertinent in the current climate. Public theology must grapple with and adapt to these changed and changing social and political circumstances.

The intense competition and change by globalization and digitalization in the 21st century have made organizations and people face opportunities, threats, and uncertainty. Digitalization allows new and original business models and thus, presenting changes as a service or benefit to the consumer has become more important. A network is the most powerful instrument of social entrepreneurs or other employees to adapt to the new order. A very important tool of the new order is the blockchain technology which allows more secure, efficient, and trustworthy social enterprises. Social entrepreneurship is the process of establishing social enterprises to create social benefits and the relevant social value is general non-financial effects of programs, organizations, and interferences that include the wellbeing of people and communities, social capital, and the environment. This study tries to define and theorize that the results of digitalization can be managed by increasing social entrepreneurship and the resulting social impact and networking have an easing effect on this method.

Abstract This book chapter aims to: (i) explore the role of the epistemic and academic community of health promoters; (ii) suggest that there are new and emerging public health problems to take into account; (iii) reinforce the need to defend the radical intent of the Ottawa Charter and to develop further anti-oppressive practice; (iv) describe how the health promotion discourse is changing, and moving into new realms of wellbeing; (v) reinforce the importance of hearing lay voices and understanding 'healthworlds'; and (vi) present some ideas for moving forward the value base of health promotion. Fields of endeavour apart from health promotion also struggle with the goals of empowerment, equality, justice, and are also contemplating how to deal with challenges of the 21st century, such as complexity, globalization and social capital. These fields might include education, criminal justice, social work, sport, development, and so provide rich and relevant avenues for further reading.

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new policy of the Japanese government for the resurgence of regional economies at the beginning of the 21st century and to reexamine its theory and realities. This new policy is the “Industrial Cluster Plan”. The advocators of this plan consider it possible to set up a region artificially. A region cannot, however, be created in such a way, but is a historical construct. Accumulated social capital is important for the recognition of a region. The social capital is decisive for collaborative undertakings among entrepreneurs. This is exemplified by the case of the area along Chuo Freeway, where we can recognize several regions.

Relevant Role

The article is an attempt to answer the question about factors affecting the trajectory of an acting career. The author confronts the objective dimensions of a career with a subjective concept of success, clarified by the participants of the social world of theater themselves. The empirical basis of the work are free interviews conducted by the author with actors of Polish public drama theaters (in 2015–2017) and journalistic interviews with theater artists published in books and popular monthly magazines in the last two decades of the 21st century. All sources were subjected to qualitative content analysis. It shows that in addition to talent, which is the basis of an acting career, hard work is also important. The actors pay attention to personality aspects – charismatic people with a natural ability to attract attention have a greater chance of success. The cultural capital of the stage artist and social capital (the relevant role of linking artistic careers) are not without significance for the course of the acting career. Actors also say a lot about coincidence of events, but it is worth remembering that “you have to be good to be lucky”, you have to be more motivated and determined. The author also tries to answer questions whether awards actuate the course of acting career and whether migrations are an opportunity for creative progression.

Linguistic Phenomenon

The research questions in this issue include the following: the first is the problem of usual meaning of neologisms. During the coronavirus pandemic there has been a flurry of new words and phrases in many languages. Such a linguistic phenomenon can be called an extreme peak in the appearance of new words and meanings. The second is the problem of assessment, the need for lexicographying such words in the explanatory dictionary, in particular, in the multivolume Dictionary of the Russian Language of the 21st century (ed. by G. N. Sklyarevskaya). General characteristics of the covid dictionary (more than 600 units), formed at the moment in Russian, are described in the article. The theoretical basis of the category of lexical neologisms is the N.Z. Kotelova’s theory, who founded an academic neographic school. She developed the principles of selecting neologisms in explanatory dictionaries and formulated specifics of those words. The article attempts to analyze covid lexemes and proposes a preliminary toolkit for selecting lexemes that can be considered as potentially usual. Almost 140 covid nominations, which make up about 23 % of the collected corpus of COVID vocabulary, have high potentiality for new words'usualisation. Research methods in this issue are: systemic, classification, statistical, deductive, inductive.
