We now live in a world of abiding existential insecurity. Sometimes a
particular dimension of human insecurity hits us in the face. Mostly
it accumulates behind our backs as an intensifying matrix of nonpalpable
threats and risks. Whereas once, people could find sanctuary
far from the madding shroud of risk, the risk matrix is becoming
increasingly interconnected and globalized. Nuclear winter will not
fade off at its edges. Viral pandemics arrive with dramatic virulence,
even in ostensibly isolated places. And climate change is globally
changing the planet, including in ways that become even more
intense at its poles. In short, these threats and risks are representative
of ontological changes that are unsettling all social and environmental
life across the planet.

This paper discusses how multipath clutter effects can be capitalized on by fighter pilots in military combat as a countermeasure against incoming air-to-air radar-guided missiles. The paper also offers a succinct view of the prospective development of the technology applied to the design and production of air-to-air radar-guided missiles in mitigating the interference from the multipath clutter effects and enhancing missile's precision in locking and tracking targets.

В лекционном курсе рассматриваются проблемы вдохновения, как особого состояния талантливых людей, позволяющего достичь ими успехов в различных сферах человеческой деятельности: учебе, творчестве (науке, литературе, театре, музыке, живописи, скульптуре и пр.,) различных видах спорта, в здоровье и т.д. Значение вдохновения невозможно переоценить. Оно наполняет наше творчество светом, позволяет выйти за границы обыденного, создает новые миры и новые реальности. Интересно, что для каждого человека источник вдохновения может быть своим. Для одного это наука, для другого-музыка, для третьего-природа, для четвертого-любовь, искусство или религия. Важно лишь одно: уметь увидеть этот миг, осознать его и позволить ему взять над собой верх. Как и все творческие люди, ученые знают, что такое вдохновение, как трудно его порой бывает найти и сохранить. Зато если находят, то потом с удовольствием делятся своей мудростью со всеми желающими-и это по-настоящему радует. Основная задача лекций-показать возникновение особого только присущего изменению интеллектуальной мозговой деятельности талантливых и гениальных людей-вдохновения-и на конкретных примерах, реализации на практике этого явления в различных сферах деятельности человека. Данные лекции предназначены для студентов ВУЗов и широкой читающей публики (особенно-для юных читателей и их молодых родителей).

This paper presents an updated and comprehensive study of the shooting techniques employed by archers in the Ancient Greek world from the Late Bronze Age to the end of the Classical period (≈16th Century– 4th Century BC). Drawing upon recent archaeological evidence, iconographic analysis, and literary sources, the research demonstrates that ancient Greek archers developed and systematically applied a range of distinct shooting methods tailored to the tactical demands of their era. Contrary to the longstanding perception of archery as a marginal or even dishonorable practice in Greek warfare, the evidence reveals a sophisticated technical doctrine. Key techniques such as the “Greek Draw” (pinch draw), the “Thumb Fraw” and the “Aphaia Draw” are identified and reconstructed based on depictions in pottery, sculpture, and surviving texts. The study also explores the operational context of these methods, highlighting the adaptability and precision of Greek archers in both direct and indirect fire, as well as their integration into flexible and mobile warfare. By synthesizing iconographic, textual, and experimental data, this research not only clarifies the technical repertoire of ancient Greek archery but also challenges prevailing narratives about its role and significance in Hellenic military history. The findings contribute to a nuanced understanding of Greek martial culture and offer a methodological framework for future interdisciplinary research on ancient archery.

À partir du XIIIe siècle, des auteurs tels que Jordanus Rufus (1200-1247), Lorenzo Rusio (1288-1347), Manuel Diez de Calatayud (XIVe siècle) ou Dom Duarte (1391-1438) plaidaient pour une utilisation raisonnée et mesurée du mors. Ils... more
À partir du XIIIe siècle, des auteurs tels que Jordanus Rufus (1200-1247), Lorenzo Rusio (1288-1347), Manuel Diez de Calatayud (XIVe siècle) ou Dom Duarte (1391-1438) plaidaient pour une utilisation raisonnée et mesurée du mors. Ils recommandaient des embouchures « douces », adaptées au tempérament, à la morphologie et a l’utilisation du cheval. Les textes et les images montrent pourtant des signes de gêne, d’évitement et de douleur induits par l’usage du mors. Cette communication propose donc de croiser les données issues des traités techniques et de l’iconographie médiévales pour analyser la conception, l’usage et les effets du mors sur les montures médiévales.

La place du cheval dans les sociétés occidentales est un sujet qui intéresse de longue date les communautés scientifiques. Défini comme « la plus noble conquête de l’homme » par le comte de Buffon, cet animal tient une place importante dans de nombreuses sociétés, des représentations du Paléolithique aux épreuves olympiques modernes, où il est l’unique animal admis à concourir, en passant par sa divinisation et l’exploitation de ses ressources naturelles. Nécessitant un environnement naturel adapté et les ressources permettant son alimentation et son soin, le cheval est également très vite devenu un marqueur d’appartenance à une strate sociale privilégiée. Attelé ou monté, il peut être utilisé pour le transport, la guerre, l’agriculture, la sylviculture, la compétition ou le loisir. Ces pratiques équestres nécessitent des équipements spécifiques (selle, attelage, bride, éperons, fers) qui diffèrent selon l’usage, la chronologie et l’espace géographique concernés, et qui sont fréquemment retrouvés en contextes archéologiques, formant ce que l’on appelle le mobilier équestre. Ils sont par ailleurs représentés dans l’iconographie ou mentionnés dans les sources écrites, lorsqu’elles existent. Ces objets sont souvent étudiés par les archéologues et historiens. Ils peuvent en effet servir de marqueurs chronologiques, sociaux et d’activités. Les études liées à l’équipement équestre sont donc indispensables à la compréhension de la place du cheval dans les sociétés du passé, mais elles restent très inégales, en fonction des objets mais aussi des périodes et des régions concernées. La journée d’étude a pour but de réaliser un bilan historiographique de ces travaux liés au mobilier équestre de la Protohistoire à l’époque moderne en Europe occidentale et d’en identifier les lacunes, selon trois axes.

El profesional de la psicología demanda una serie de características acordes con las necesidades de la sociedad y la disciplina y que pugnen por el cuidado del bienestar psicológico de las personas y por su desarrollo integral. Por esto, las instituciones de educación superior requieren procesos de selección cada vez más precisos para asegurarse de que los aspirantes realmente cumplan con el perfil, los valores y las características de personalidad idóneas para que se puedan convertir en verdaderos agentes del cambio social. En el presente estudio longitudinal se investigaron las correlaciones entre el perfil vocacional ideal de los alumnos a su ingreso a la licenciatura a Psicología, los puntajes de la Prueba de Aptitud Académica del College Board y la trayectoria académica de tres generaciones, para lo cual se empleó una muestra de 181 sujetos y se determinó el impacto que tienen las áreas de la prueba con la trayectoria escolar del alumno.

Resumo: Este trabalho procura elucidar um aspecto da criação do culto aos voluntários constitucionalistas mortos durante a Revolução de 1932. Desde o conflito político-militar até a década de 1950, o culto foi ganhando crescente formalização, que se pode perceber até hoje nos rituais do 9 de Julho. O argumento é que a lembrança do evento político concentrase nesta forma particular de ritualização do passado -o culto cívico dos mortos. Busca-se, por um lado, tecer as relações entre o culto cívico dos mortos e outras formas de instituição da memória do evento, como a literatura comemorativa e os monumentos; por outro, tratase de desvendar as apropriações da cultura cívica e religiosa usadas para dar forma aos rituais. Tais apropriações deram ensejo a uma novidade: o culto cívico ao homem comum numa ordem supostamente democrática na década de 1930. Palavras-chave: Revolução Constitucionalista de 1932. Culto Cívico dos Mortos. Usos do Passado.

Raconte: Je rejoins le Bataillon Corniche 22 en Septembre 1944, le Bataillon était cantonné, plutôt le P.C., à ROQUEBRUNE dans le château de la princesse OTTOBONI. Les Compagnies de Combat étaient installées dans différents points du secteur de MENTON. Personne à NICE ne se souciait de la 1ère Compagnie qui était en poste à CASTELLAR, le village le plus bombardé de FRANCE, ni du détachement qui était à CASTILLON pour aider. Les Américains, voyant que les Jeeps ne gravissaient pas les montagnes avaient eu recours aux brèles des Alpins, mais les descendants des cowboys avaient la sainte horreur des mulets et ce sont les Français qui faisaient le boulot jusqu'à la libération de SOSPEL. Beaucoup furent blessés dont mon ami le Sergent-Chef CREIGNON. Novembre 1944. Mouvement sur MENTON, logement à l'hôtel ALEXANDRA sur les hauteurs de la ville. A cette époque le Bataillon se rassemble et devient le 22ème B.C.A. J'en suis très heureux étant chasseur de formation. Dans la journée il faut apprendre à ces jeunes F.F.I. le métier de soldats. Etant un des rares Sous-Officier d'Active, je suis chargé de former les caporaux, c'est une mission excellente qui me procure une grande satisfaction. La nuit arrivant le Bataillon reprend son activité de guerre : sa mission est d'occuper et surveiller la côte entre le port de MENTON et la pointe de CAP-MARTIN. Le P.C. de garde est situé dans le petit fortin qui se trouve sur la jetée du port. Les postes fixes de guet sont installés tout le long du secteur, leur mission est d'interdire d'éventuelles patrouilles ennemies de prendre pied sur la côte. Un service de patrouille est assuré pour surveiller les intervalles entre les postes, surveillance aussi de l'intérieur des terres, MENTON étant une ville évacuée, seuls quelques civils sont autorisés à y pénétrer pour le gardiennage, mais la nuit venue, des signaux optiques se répondent de la ville à la frontière, conversations lumineuses que nous cherchons à localiser, d'où le danger quelquefois de pénétrer dans des jardins abandonnés, ce qui devait arriver. Avec mon adjoint, le Sergent GERMANO, nous sautons une grille et traversons le jardin pour essayer de localiser une lumière ; soudain nous butons tous les deux, étant de front, sur un fil de fer, nous avons la même réaction, nos doigts glissent sur le fil de fer qui était encore contre nos jambes. Nous avons compris. C'était le fil qui d'une simple traction devait faire sauter une mine bondissante. Le dispositif peut-être était oxydé par l'air marin et n'a pas fonctionné. Nous nous

This paper analyzes the determinants for first-year students’ performance results in four Chilean universities. In addition to the standardized college entrance exams (PSU, for the Spanish acronym) and high school marks aggregation (NEM, for the Spanish acronym), this study includes a measurement of relative ability based on Registro de Estudiantes de Chile (RECH), as an outcome predictor. Results indicate that a good performance of high school students is directly related to better university results, even when controlled by marks in college entrance exams and high-school marks for each degree. This suggests that our relative ability measure captures information (eventually non-cognitive skills) that the selection variables currently in use do not provide, which is important for explaining the first year college performance.

This article explores the evolution of militarism through the lives of six influential military leaders; Sun Tzu, Scipio Africanus, Napoleon Bonaparte, Ōmura Masujirō, Kaiser Wilhelm II, and General George S. Patton, tracing how their actions and philosophies shaped a concept that continues to defy easy definition. Spanning over two thousand years and three continents, the narrative reveals militarism as a fluid but persistent system, shaped by each era's fears, ambitions, and cultural contexts, yet grounded in constants such as the monopoly on force, hierarchical control, charismatic leadership, technological dependence, and fear-based justification. From Sun Tzu's cerebral strategies to Patton's mechanized campaigns, militarism emerges not simply as policy or ideology, but as a cultural technology, a structured language of power used to preserve order or assert dominance. By following its syncretic evolution, the article offers a nuanced working definition and invites a deeper reflection on militarism's enduring presence in human history.

W roku 1974 roku urządzono w Warszawie na ówczesnym placu Zwycięstwa (dawniej plac Saski, dziś plac Piłsudskiego) wystawę „Panorama XXX-lecia PRL” („Warszawa XXX”). Zaprezentowano na niej m. in. autobusy, trolejbusy, ciężarówki i samoloty - głównie produkcji polskiej, ale także używane w Polsce w latach 1944-1974.
Zdjęcia tu zamieszczone, jeśli nie podano inaczej, zostały wykonane przeze mnie aparatem Praktica LLC a film to kolorowe przeźrocza ORWO (oba ”made in DDR”)..In In English:
In 1974, an exhibition entitled “Panorama of the 30th anniversary of the People’s Republic of Poland” (“Warsaw XXX”) was organised in Warsaw on then Zwycięstwa Square (formerly Saski Square, now Piłsudski Square). It featured, among other things, buses, trolleybuses, trucks and aircrafts - mainly made in Poland, but also used in Poland between 1944 and 1974.
The photos here, unless otherwise stated, were taken by me with a Praktica LLC camera and the original film was ORWO colour slides (both “made in the GDR”).

El propósito de este trabajo consiste en hacer una aproximación sistemática a la producción y circulación de manuales telegráficos como guías del conocimiento técnico y la difusión de otros textos técnicos en revistas y publicaciones especializadas en Colombia entre 1870 y 1950. Estos manuales, que estuvieron a cargo de los egresados de las escuelas telegráficas y de otros tantos que incursionaron de manera empírica en esta área, fueron claves para la capacitación del personal dedicado a este ramo y para la optimización del servicio, y su elaboración fue dinámica por cuanto se acopló a los continuos avances tecnológicos. Algunos de estos manuales y procedimientos técnicos fueron adaptados a la realidad nacional con el propósito de emplear los medios locales disponibles para resolver los problemas de comunicación telegráfica que pudieran suscitarse en el montaje y manejo de las redes y oficinas. En esa misma línea, el otro objetivo planteado apunta a analizar el impacto de la apropiación de las nuevas tecnologías por parte de los telegrafistas colombianos y el impulso de la inventiva nacional que, aún con los escasos recursos, buscó crear algunos dispositivos y adaptar otros. El progresivo acceso a los espacios de capacitación técnica y la profesionalización de la carrera de ingeniería contribuyeron a la producción de literatura especializada y a la investigación en el funcionamiento de este ramo de las comunicaciones.

Roof and slab structures in the Italian tradition make commonly use of timber elements; the conservation of this typology also in common residential buildings is nowadays perceived as a value, and strengthening of existing structures is preferred, when possible, to substitution with new elements and materials, not belonging to the tradition. In this study the use of steel elements as reinforcement of timber beams is addressed; through a detailed analysis of the literature, it is shown that this technique belongs to tradition, and may provide an effective way to increasing both strength and resistance. Through the experimental testing of a timber beam specimen coming from an old building, a reinforcing technique has been analyzed and the effect of the design parameters is discussed. KEY-WORDS: timber, beam, steel, cable, slab, reinforcing. Introduzione. L’impiego del legno per la realizzazione delle strutture resistenti di solai e coperture costituisce un aspetto caratterizzante dell...

Note in margine alla recente edizione di un saggio militare di Algarotti di deniSe aricò aBStract. Starting from the examination of a recent edition of the essay Sopra la giornata di Zama by Francesco Algarotti, unconvincing due to the lack of commentary notes and a more complete introduction, this contribution places the 1749 text in the middle of a network of the author's reflections on the history of ideas regarding ancient and modern military thought. The famous battle of 202 BC is not only examined by Algarotti in light of the information derived from the Greek Polybius on the strategy of Scipio and Hannibal, but dialogues with the erroneous beliefs of Jean-Charles de Folard, who found the "column system" applied to it. This contribution also becomes the pretext for outlining the characteristics of modern military commentary, where philology and erudition repudiate the temptations of fictionalized history in the name of a scientific and rational approach advocated by Ludovico Antonio Muratori, Jean Le Clerc and André Dacier.

The Enseignements of Theodore Palaiologos, Marquis of Monferrat, are an example of an original, military-related treatise from the first half of the fourteenth century. The Enseignements have not had a lucky publication history; both originals were lost, they survive only in one French translation. They are currently accessible only in a transcription of 1983, long out of print. The tract has received attention from Italian and Byzantinist historians, but anglophone academic treatments are not evident. Unusually for a military treatise of the time, it does not rely on Vegetius, but integrates the author’s personal experience of warfare in Italy and (presumably) the military literary tradition of his native Byzantine Empire. The result is a handbook combining integrated strategic thinking to produce a manual on leadership. The purpose of this brief article is to provide an introduction to this exceptional text and especially its military-related content, and thereby make it and the secondary literature related to it more generally accessible.

oi no dia 8 de Junho de 2017 que, respondendo ao desafio lançado pelo conselho científico do congresso internacional El arte de la representación del espacio: cartografía histórica y planimetría artística, apresentámos os resultados preliminares de uma breve sondagem subordinada ao tema "As baterias de artilharia de Vila Real de Santo António na cartografia militar setecentista", na Universidade de Huelva. Alguns meses volvidos sobre a realização deste congresso, já em Novembro de 2017, voltámos a partilhar os resultados destas investigações no âmbito das XXII Jornadas de Historia de la muy noble y leal ciudad de Ayamonte, sendo que o artigo relativo a esta conferência deveria integrar o livro de actas dessas jornadas. Porém, a quantidade de fontes cartográficas e manuscritas entretanto identificadas implicou que, ao redigirmos o trabalho, nos víssemos forçados a limitar o tema às baterias costeiras de Vila Real de Santo António, de modo a não darmos à estampa um trabalho que iria pecar pela sua inevitável natureza generalista.

This article focusses on the Dutch troops, fighting the Spanish forces in Brazil during the 17th century. The way of fighting was typified by guerilla warfare, and the arms and equipment of the Dutch forces was aspecially adapted to this type of warfare. It was for example the first time in history that Dutch armed forces were armed with flintlock muskets instead of matchlock and wheellock.

In writing the history of modern science in Spain, we want to highlight specificities while remaining attentive to the role of global and regional developments. The nation state is a relevant unit of analysis for at least two reasons.
First, as elsewhere, Spanish politics posed both opportunities and constraints for the reception and development of most disciplines, even beyond public universities and state-funded research institutions.1 Second, Spanish scientists and engineers were relevant actors in the making of the modern Spanish state. They worked around problems and projects that were relevant for the broader political economy: industry, the military, administration, medicine, education and, more generally, ideology or worldview.
This chapter is organized around some of these “working worlds” of science. Its chief preoccupation will not be questions of backwardness with respect to the scientific core. Reception of scientific theories, practices, and instruments produced elsewhere will occupy a good deal of our attention. And we will insist on how those artifacts and ideas functioned in the changing Spanish political economy – for instance, from cultures of scarcity and craftsmanship to cultures of forced modernization and big science.
But our main interest lies in understanding the place of science within modern Spain. As such, we have structured the chapter along four rather large periods that mark political and economic breaks. However artificial and traversed by continuities, these periods had a lasting impact in scientific institutions and practices.

Cosa ci facevano dei cinesi a scavare trincee sulla Somme, accanto ai fanti inglesi e francesi che combattevano furiosamente per pochi metri di terreno? Proviamo a fare luce sul ruolo che ebbero gli abitanti del Regno di Mezzo nella Prima guerra mondiale sul teatro europeo, e di come questo conflitto influenzò la vita politica, economica e sociale di questo immenso paese asiatico.

The paper examines existing methods for calculating line-of-sight, as the simplest and requiring a minimum of input methods for determining the range of the radio. Have been analyzed their advantages and disadvantages. We offer a new approach, which is the most accurate among the counterparts. It allows to take into account the influence of relief and complex nature of the atmosphere, due to which the calculated coverage of the radio become close to the real one. At the same time, this method requires a lot of additional information that may not be available to users. Due to this we can draw a conclusion that particular situation has an optimal method for determining of line-of-sight, depending on the required accuracy and limitations of computing time.

The purpose of this article is to analyze if the ASTROS system can be used as a tool for strategic deterrence. The article draws on research from a thorough literature review focused on the Artillery Saturation Rocket System (ASTROS), strategic aspects of the Brazilian National Defense Strategy (NDS), the Land (Terrestrial) Military Strategy, and foreign nation’s use of similar artillery pieces. Additionally, a key aspect of this study is the analysis of the Anti-Access Area Denial (A2/AD) strategy. This study finds that the ASTROS system can serve as a component of A2/AD, concluding on its ability to collaborate with strategic deterrent. Finally, the work explores how land forces can effectively contribute in the construction of the land military capabilities by virtue of what was established in the to the NDS.

The beginnings of the Ottoman administration of Syrmia can be traced back to the period shortly after the battle of Mohács (1526), the collapse of the medieval Hungarian Kingdom. The mufassal-icmal defteri of the sancak of Smederevo dated around 1530, mentions a revenue of 100 000 akçes collected from Cezire-i Sirem which was part of the has of Yahyapaşazade Mehmed. The territory of the later sancak of Sirem was called island (cezire), because its natural boundaries were the rivers Danube and Sava. This source lists the fortifications of Syrmia along the rivers, but does not mentions the fortress of Morovit’ (medieval castrum Marót)

This article uses the exceptionally detailed records of the English exchequer to examine the development of the Calais arsenal in the late Middle Ages, by tracing the procurement, distribution and storage of non-gunpowder weaponry and armour. It demonstrates that large quantities of a limited range of armaments were acquired and expended from the stocks, which were not only used to replace and sell equipment to soldiers serving in the garrison, but also to equip expeditionary armies. The article argues that the arsenal was a key part of the Crown’s ability to project military power onto the Continent through Calais and was the most important store of armaments in the kingdom for much of the fifteenth century. It also provides new insights into how weapons were used by the English in warfare in the late Middle Ages.
