Abstract The Old Babylonian schoolmasters used the literary form of the dialogue to compose texts that were conceived as didactic material to improve the Sumerian speaking skills of their pupils and to teach them specific moral values. Some of these compositions can be labeled as school-disputes based on to their content and were probably performed at school. The ends of the school-disputes Enkiḫeĝal and Enkitalu and Ĝirinisa and Enkimanšum are particularly interesting because they provide some insight into how the schoolmasters dealt with quarreling students. In this respect Enkiḫeĝal und Enkitalu stands out for its challenge of corporal punishment. In Ĝirinisa and Enkimanšum one can note that school discipline implies a fraternal attitude between students. This fraternal attitude presupposed and reinforced the scribe’s self-confidence to form a cohesive cultural community.

Virginia Satir (1916-1988) is one of the first experts who has worked in the field of family therapy in the United States. In 1951, she was one of the first therapists who has worked all members of the family as a whole in the same session. She has concentrated her studies on issues such as to increase individual's self-esteem and to understand and change other people's perspectives. She has tried to make problematic people compatible in the family and in the society through change. From this perspective, change and adaptation are the two important concepts of her model. This is a state of being and a way to communicate with ourselves and others. High self-confidence and harmony are the first primary indicator of being a more functional human. She starts her studies with identifying the family. She uses two ways to do this; the first one is the chronology of the family that is history of the family, the second one is the communication patterns within the family. With this, she updates the status of the family. Updating is the detection of the current situation. The detection of the situation, in other words updating, constitutes the very essence of the model that she implements. In this study, communication patterns within the family are discussed for the updating, the chronological structure has not been studied. The characteristics of family communication patterns, the model of therapy that is applied by Satir for these patterns and the method which is followed in the model are discussed. According to her detection, the people who face with problems, use one of those four patterns or a combination of them. These communication patterns are Blamer, Sedative/Accepting, distracter/irrelevant and rational. Satir expresses that these four patterns are not solid and unchanging but all of them “can be converted”. For example, if one of the family members is usually using the soothing (sedative/accepting) pattern, in this case, it means that he/she wants to give the message that he/she is not very important in the inner world of the individual itself. However, if such a communication pattern is to be used repeatedly by an individual, he/she must know how to use it. According to Satir, this consciousness may be converted to a conscious gentleness and sensitivity that is automatically followed to please everyone. This study was carried out by using the copy of Satir’s book, which was originally called “The Conjoint Family Therapy” and translated into Turkish by Selim Ali Yeniçeri as “Basic Family Therapy” and published in Istanbul by Beyaz Yayınları in 2016. It is expected that the study will provide support to the education of the students and family therapists.

Aesthetics now a day became a demand for a fast growing population. Aesthetic dentistry provides fantastic solutions most of the times to enhance the way the people look, which in turn enhance self-confidence. A smile conveys a friendly nature, and reflects happiness and confidence. A smile is an important non-verbal method of communication and is an interaction between the teeth, the lip framework, and the gingival scaffold [1]. In the western world, a medium smile line with minimal gingival display (GD) is considered to be the most pleasing. When an excessive amount of gingiva is visible while smiling, this condition is commonly referred to as a ‘‘gummy smile’’ and it is found frequently in the general population. In a sample of over 450 adults, aged 20 to 30 years, 7% of men and 14% of women were found to have a gummy smile [2]. Excessive gingival display is associated with different etiologies, which must be identified before treatment. It is imperative, therefore, for the clinician to evaluate the essentials of the patient’s smile, and consider the dynamic relationship between the patient’s dentition, gingiva, and lips while smiling [1,3].

The ways to achieve success are as diverse as human abilities and needs. Nevertheless, based on the previous theoretical and methodological analysis, we believe that among modern youth, generalized culturally, socially and personally determined models of success and failure are formed, which implement certain life programs in our society. The article presents the results of a comparative analysis of two groups of young people who achieved and did not achieve success in life, representing a generational cohort that grew up and formed in a society and state that are radically different from the society and state of the Soviet type. In this regard, answers are given to the questions: what are the real success and failure in modern Russian society; what are their distinctive social and socio-psychological characteristics and role in society. The analysis showed that these groups implement two basic life programs in our society: survival and success, determined by status (education, position, income) and socio-psychological characteristics (methods of selecting and setting goals, the level of their implementation, the type of rationality, attitude to work). Doomed to survival, mismatch of human life with its meaning – lead to a decrease in the threshold of personal and social responsibility, a sense of inferiority, inferiority of one’s personality, low labor activity, forming a model of social maladaptation that hinders the healthy development of the economy and society. The people who represent it, in fact, are slaves not only to circumstances, but also to the logic of everyday life built by them. On the contrary, the life and business success of young Muscovites is based on their status achievements in education and work, as well as on personal characteristics and ways to achieve success: self-confidence, optimism, the ability to set simple and clear goals, and perseverance in their implementation. This is not only an effective model of active adaptation to market conditions based on conscious and responsible choice, but also the construction of social reality based on developed personal potential. Successful Muscovites remain people who are able to relate their own and other people’s interests, when a person perceives their being as alienated from the being of other people. This is a new socio-cultural type that implements an ethical and socially safe model of life success.

This study aims to describe the youth’s social expectations of the nasyid text Ya Fata Sasak by T.G.K.H. Muhammad Zainuddin Abdul Majid. The research method used is semiotic that is qualitative interpretive with content analysis techniques that focus to the research on the latent content of nasyid text Ya Fat Sasak as data research on the latent content of the nasyid Ya Fata Sasak research. This technique is carried out by copying the nasyid Ya Fata Sasak manuscript to Indonesian, reading, writing, and coding into five codes of Rolands Barthes such as hermeneutic code, action code, symbolic code, semantics code, and referential code. So the social expectations of the Sasak youth are defined. The result of this research shows that Sasak youth have equal opportunities with other young people in Indonesia to expect both individually and collectively. Every social expectation carried  out by Sasak youth is certainly related to the interest of the people, nation and the state which is realized through the strengthening of critical and independent discourses to  maintain  their  idealism,  such  as  building self-confidence (character building) and carrying out social and religious values as brotherhood and unity, managing natural resources that can be utilized optimally, participating in various competitions of contestations, and instilling a spirit of nationalism as the one of foundations for maintaining and advancing the Indonesian people.

A survey of the Writings shows surprisingly little contact with the religious environment of the Ancient Near East, in which Jews lived in the late first millennium bce. The reasons for this lack do not derive from lack of opportunity but from the self-confidence of the Jewish tradition in the face of polytheism. This finding seems to show that the sense of Judaism as all-sufficient and convincingly monotheistic had been established at least in the minds of the people who brought together the Writings. Although Jews in the late first century bce were exposed to a cacophony of other religious traditions, their interactions do not show up in the Writings, except as critiques or mocking of other traditions.

The current phenomenon of Namibian African Independent Churches (NAICs) draws attention from various people in civil society in Namibia. Although the ministries of NAICs are engaged with activities which are unusual for Christian churches, such as healing the people, fighting against evil spirits and power, performing certain rituals, prophesying and leading the worship services with African Traditional Religion (ATR) as a frame of reference in 21st century, they do have a very big influence on various aspects of society in Namibia, which cannot be ignored. This is because those activities are familiar to the everyday lives of Africans and in touch with their culture. With regards to this, this article focuses on the causes of integration or harmony between the Herero culture and the NAICs.

This article deals with the charismatic Protestant Free Church in Denmark, "Kristent Centrum". It describes the organization of "Kristent Centrum" and the importance of healing within the Free Church, and it compares "Kristent Centrum" with the healing groups in Meredith B. McGuire's study Ritual Healing in Suburban Africa.The main goal of the Free Church is to convert ordinary people and mainstream Christians into born-again Christians. Mopst of the Church meetings are "revivalist meetings", where leader Hans Berntsen tries to convince people to open up their hearts to Jesus. At the end of each session, Hans Berntsen prays for the people who have different kinds of problems and healing takes place. The church, which has approximately 2,000 members, has meetings all over Denmark. Besides activities which are directed towards conversion, only little goes on within "Kristent Centrum". The members go to meetings to experience an atmosphere of closeness to God, which Hans Berntsen and other leaders try to create. The healing and the singing at meetings contribute to this atmosphere and are appreciated by many participants. As shown in McGuire's study, few people go to the meetings for the sole purpose of being healed. In this respect religious healing seems to differ from other forms of alternative treatment, which are normally used in response to a specific illness. It is my belief that healing within "Kristent Centrum" is supposed to build up faith among the members. Healing seems to work differently within "Kristent Centrum" than among healing groups om McGuire's study, where healing restores order and meaning for the sick person by constructing illness etiologies based on the sick person's illness episodes. Furthermore, the healing gives the person a feeling of personale empowerment. Due to their belief in the greatness and the immediacy of God's power and the complete powerlessness of the human being, the participants in the meetings of "Kristent Centrum" do not feel empowered. Because of the lack of contact between Free Church leaders and people seeking healing at the meetings, no illness etiologies for sick people are constructed.
