In his dialogues with Claire Parnet, Deleuze asserts that: ‘Whether we are individuals or groups, we are made of lines’ ( Deleuze and Parnet 2007 : 124). In A Thousand Plateaus (with Guattari), Deleuze calls these kinds of ‘lifelines’ or ‘lines of flesh’: break line (or segmental line, or molar line), crack line (or molecular line) and rupture line (also called line of flight) ( Deleuze and Guattari 2004a : 22). We will explain the difference between these three lines and how they are related to the ‘soul’. We will also explain how a singular individual or group can arise from the play of the lines. Eventually, we will introduce the concept of ‘Creal’ to develop the Deleuzian figure of the ‘Anomal’, the so(u)rcerer.

The country of Indonesia consists of various islands, tribes, arts and culture, languages ​​and different religions. The difference is a unity within the framework of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia based on the Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution. However, there are some groups or groups who want and make efforts to change the basis of our beloved Indonesian State with the form of an Islamic State. The national consensus has become an important guide in maintaining the unity and integrity of the Indonesian nation in the course of history to date. Various incidents of betrayal in the form of rebellion, separatist movements, coup d'etat, even legal political struggles through the Constituent Assembly, were carried out by various community groups to change or replacing the consensus can be overcome. The results of this study indicate that: The boarding school does not make a distinction whether students live in a boarding house or not. They can learn from, interact with, and help one another and recognize the difference as reality. Kiai sholeh embodies the concept of interfaith relations with the formation of dialogue which he has held by holding a national seminar on interfaith harmony. The interpretation of the national seminar is the interaction of kiai sholeh with non-Muslims such as joint prayer, religious silaturrohmi, performing arts, live in 100 pastors, cooperation in education, cultural fusion, and social action of the nation's youth

Boudinage structures have only rarely been reported in glacier ice, yet they seem to be widespread in Swiss glaciers. They form in debris-free, strongly foliated ice by the stretching, necking and rupture of layers or groups of layers, when the principal compressive strain axis lies at a high angle to the layering. Two main types of boudinage are distinguished. The first results from the difference in competence between fine-grained and coarse-grained ice, and indicates that the former is more resistant to flow than the latter. The second occurs in more equigranular ice which shows a strong planar anisotropy; associated with the necking of such ice is the development of shear planes, along which the layers are displaced. As in deformed rocks, it is not possible to determine the directions of the finite principal strain axes from the boudinage structures alone. Although the boudins described here all occur in longitudinal foliation, it is suggested that they are likely to form in other situations also.

The article discusses the results of the use of diallelic analysis in the study of self-pollinated lines of corn. The average grain yield of self-pollinated lines (2,30 – 2,84 t/ha), as well as the average group indicators of hybrids (3,29 – 5,49 t/ha) were noted. The effects of general and variance of the specific combining ability of the lines were revealed. Ranking by grain yield allowed us to arrange the lines in the following sequence: CL 7 <MK 130 U <RSK 25 <PH26 <Yk12D2, Om 255 <MK 11 <Ch46 <Bg1266 <LV32 <RSK 7 <Yuv 19 <RSK 3 <Om232, KS 25 <Od 28. The results of the analysis of the combining ability of self-pollinated maize lines indicate a low value of the GCA effects in the lines of CL 7, Ch46 and a high effect of GCA in the lines of RSK 7, MK11, RSK 3. Significantly significant indicators of the components of dominance (H1, H2.), in absolute value exceed the values of component D, characterizing the additive effect of genes. The difference between the total average trait of all offspring (ml1) and the average parental forms (ml0) has positive values, which indicates that dominance is directed towards the parental forms with a greater severity of the trait. An analysis of the components indicates that, depending on the growing conditions, 2–7 genes or groups of genes affect the manifestation of grain yield. In 2016-2017 The paratypical component of dispersion had a significant effect on grain yield (E).

One of the most important, complex, and controversial concepts in legal theory is that of a ‘right’. Apart from the analytical discussion, there is an inevitable debate concerning the difference between what constitutes a right, on the one hand, and what rights individuals or groups actually have or should have, on the other. This distinction between analytical and normative jurisprudence recurs throughout the literature. This chapter explores the concept of rights, various theories and types of rights (including human and animal rights), and concludes with a brief exercise in ‘applied jurisprudence’ that demonstrates how ostensibly competing approaches to a central democratic right are played out.

The study aims to reveal the specific profile of social communication. This is achieved in two ways: by clarifying the difference between the individual and mass communication, and by highlighting the common characteristics of them. It emphasizes that by its psychological and social determinations, communication is reflected on individuals or groups of individuals with significant effects, depending on the occupied place by them within the communicational system. A fair, effective decision, can’t be taken only if the system and communication networks, are properly functioning. What is important in the end is the effectiveness of communication, or, in other words, if its message was properly understood by the interlocutor what will lead to the desired effect. The communication is a dynamic process which, once initiated, evoluates, is changing and changes people involved in the process. It is even said that we are what we are as a result of interactions of communication that we had along the life, which is certainly true as far as personality is the result of environment, education, experience, and communication is the way which they operate.

      L’elaborato si propone di analizzare il pensiero ecologico di Anna Maria Ortese, concentrandosi su Alonso e i visionari, testo che, seppur trascurato dal pubblico e dalla critica, può essere considerato il manifesto dell’intera poetica ortesiana. Il credo dell’autrice è infatti rivolto ad annullare la differenza tra umano e non umano, a combattere per l’inclusione dell’animale nel circolo etico, a difendere i diritti di tutti gli esseri viventi e non viventi, alla ricerca di una forma di pensiero più inclusiva e che si fondi su nuovi valori come l’amore, la pietà, la partecipazione al dolore e il “soccorso” a tutte le creature e alla Terra stessa. Propongo di rileggere Alonso e i visionari da una prospettiva ecologica al fine di dimostrare non solo come l’autrice partecipi al dibattito su “La questione animale” al centro degli studi sull’animalità, ma come anticipi spesso riflessioni e considerazioni di filosofi e pensatori del Novecento, tra cui Agamben, Cavalieri, Derrida, Deleuze e Guattari. Abstract      This essay aims to analyze Anna Maria Ortese’s ecological thought, which significantly distinguishes her last novel, Alonso e i visionari. I believe that the novel, which has been overlooked both by critics and by readers, can be considered as the manifesto of the author’s poetics. Indeed, it summarizes the writer’s tenets, devoted to annulling the difference between human and nonhuman world, to struggling for the animal’s inclusion in the moral community, to proposing an understanding of intelligence that combines reason, compassion, and care for both human and nonhuman beings as well as for the entire planet Earth itself. I suggest reading the novel from an ecocritical perspective to illustrate how Ortese anticipates Braidotti’s posthuman thought, and provides original theoretical frameworks and criteria for exploring fundamental issues of “The Animal Question” even before such themes commanded the attention of prominent twentieth-century philosophers such as Agamben, Cavalieri, Derrida, Deleuze, and Guattari. Resumen      Este ensayo analiza el pensamiento ecológico de Anna Maria Ortese y examina la novela Alonso e i visionari, que puede ser considerada como el manifiesto de la obra ortesiana, aunque la obra no tuvo gran éxito de público ni de crítica en el momento de su publicación. El credo de la autora pretende invalidar la diferencia entre humano y no humano, luchar por la inclusión de los animales en el círculo ético, defender los derechos de todos los seres, buscar una tipología de pensamiento más inclusiva y que se base no solo en la razón sino en nuevos valores como el amor, la piedad, la participación en el dolor y la ayuda a todas las criaturas que lo necesiten, lo que la autora llama emblemáticamente “soccorso”. Mi trabajo sugiere una lectura de la novela desde una perspectiva ecocrítica para mostrar que Ortese participa en el debate conocido como “La cuestión de los animales,” y de la misma manera, anticipa el pensamiento de Braidotti sobre el posthumano y algunas consideraciones de destacados filósofos del siglo XX, como Agamben, Cavalieri, Derrida, Deleuze y Guattari.

Papua New Guinea Solution is a bilateral relationship between Australia under Prime Minister Kevin Rudd and Papua New Guinea regarding anti-resettlement conducted by people who want to access Australia and obtain refugee status by boat. This solution was taken after Kevin Rudd who came from the Australian Labor Party sent Pacific Solutions which had been used during Prime Minister Howard's administration. The difference in efforts to overcome the arrival of aid can be seen by using the Bureaucratic Model in its analysis. This effort was carried out with the aim of securing Australia. The problem is that Australia ratified the 1951 Refugees conference. The essence of PNG Solutions is individuals or groups who come to Australia who can pass Australia, and without a visa and a clear identity are not allowed into Australia and will be sent in Papua New Guinea. Australia's national interests can hurt ratified conventions. This study uses a qualitative method using secondary resources, and analysis uses the concept of securitization and uses Barry Buzan's research in his book People, State, and Fear. Then the policy analysis is taken by Prime Minister Rudd by using the Bureaucratic Model due to bargaining in Australia's domestic politics. Keywords: PNG Solutions, Asylum Seeker, Australia’s Foreign Policy

The entities exist on dual planes, on the physical or transcendental plane, in forms, and the philosophical or immanent plane that only considered intensity and movement of the objects. The present study is grounded on the notions of Deleuze and Guattari (1987) who considered immanent plane to be affecting and transforming the indulged bodies through process of becoming. The present study, through thematic analysis, investigated a few instances from the character of Alex Bailey, from, The Enchantress Returns (2013). The findings depicted that becoming was a constant process. Additionally, the becoming bodies or objects could be physical, imaginary, psychological or phenomenal. The transformations through becoming were not physical and did not appear on transcendent plane. Moreover, the affected bodies depicted the difference in their thoughts and actions.

Perhaps the best way to approach the relationship between Deleuze and Agamben is to adopt a method from Deleuze and Guattari’s late philosophy: the conceptual persona.1 Here philosophical proper names do not stand for biographies or persons but for orientations or maps of thinking. Descartes, for example, enables a whole tradition of Cartesian dualism, even for those who neither read nor reference his work. There are some occasions when Agamben’s history of thought also considers proper names less as labels for specific historical individuals, and more as markers of a certain style or distribution of thinking. His recent The Use of Bodies, for example, sees Spinoza as a way of coming to terms with the relation between essence and existence (between what a being is, and that a being is) (UB 160). The names Agamben draws upon are not so much focused upon for their singular greatness, but because they provide a way for thinking about what Agamben sees as the ongoing problem of the singular existence of an individuated being, and then the way that being is identified in language. One might also think of this as the difference between the simple event that something is, and then the identifiable what of the thing. In What is Philosophy? Deleuze and Guattari treat proper names as conceptual personae, suggesting – as Agamben does – that philosophical problems (and the names that attach to them) are not academic exercises of a specific discipline, but have to do with the very possibility of thinking (in domains well beyond philosophy).

This is a descriptive study conducted to determine the bureaucratic socialization tendencies of teachers, as well as the relationship between these tendencies and the seniority and gender variables. The population of the research is composed of elementary school teachers from the Sincan district of the province of Ankara. Data have been collected by means of a bureaucratic socialization scale developed by the researcher. The reliability level of the scale has been calculated as 0.86. The research data have been compiled from the replies of 358 available and voluntary teachers. To analyse the data, the score of each item representing a factor has been calculated by taking the arithmetical average of the scores of that item. To analyse the difference of viewpoints, ttest has been used for the gender variable and One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) has been used for the seniority variable. To determine which group or groups involved significant differences, LSD multiple comparison test has been conducted. The research findings show that the bureaucratic socialization tendency of teachers is at the level of 'I agree'. Compared to male teachers, female teachers have a higher tendency to adopt the bureaucratic structure and characteristics of the school, whereas, they have a lower tendency to behave in compliance with the institutional identity and values of bureaucratic structure. Furthermore, when a comparison is made between different groups of seniority, it is noted that the group with 5 years and less seniority and the one with 21 years and above seniority have a higher tendency for "not behaving according to the values and rules of the institution" than the group with 11-15 years of seniority. It is remarkable that the theoretical awareness level of teachers is high while the level of converting this awareness into activity is low. This result has been shared although it was not among the targets of the research as it has been deemed important.
