Abstract This article examines Emirati public discourse on, and imagination of, gendered pious fashion and conflict talk as animated in the sitcom Shaabiat Al-Cartoon (SAC) and other connected cultural expressions. Through a multimodal analysis, it contributes to discussions of the politics of piety by analyzing the strategic illustration of the UAE’s female fashion sense and use of the linguistic features that move verbal dueling to verbal attack. In this prefabricated orality, the article outlines linguistic forms in mediating gendered conflict talk and animating pious fashion. The paper further argues that a multimodal social semiotic performance that is based on language and apparel can produce powerful effects on the co-production of gendered identities. Additionally, it demonstrates through this analysis how the producers of an episode of SAC, through the use of semiotic cues, attempt to reflect and shape Emirati sociocultural values and idioms on pious gendered clothing and perceptions of religiosity and modernity.

The difficult process of combining old and new realities creates a precondition for the formation of a dichotomous worldview and dual social positions. The article analizes the model of traditional sociocultural values and society interaction. Sociocultural values provide interaction with the society by the means of feedback as a result of which the central cultural circle has value of collecting, saving, reproducting, handing over and programming functions. Modern society becomes more and more piuralistic and alternative and creates such moral-psycological atmosphere, when a person does not only feel cultural inferiority, but also becomes more adaptable to new attitudes and lifestyles. Of course, all this serves as a precondition for the society to function and reproduce, because the dynamism of life, the strengthening of intergration tendencies, the spread of telecommunications make life more comfortable, uniform and accessible. However, in modern society there are large masses of peple who do not interact with traditional culture. Modern civilization has created new educational system, which even teaches masses the besics of using new technology is not able to deak with educational issues and convey the meaning and content of the culture and morality of great historical problems- though being accesable and mass.

Philosophical Debates

ZusammenfassungThe question whether the concept of disease is descriptive or normative, is controversial in philosophical debates. A philosophical investigation of medical pathology concerning this question has hitherto been lacking. This paper is based on the reconstruction of general medical pathology as outlined in earlier work of this author. Key concepts of medical pathology are: disease entity, pathologicity, disease criterion, disease value, medical indication. The criteria of pathologicity and the general pathology are briefly sketched. It is shown that these conceptions constitute a dimension of objective value that is rooted in the psychosomatic human nature but is compatible with additional, superposed subjective or sociocultural values concerning disease. The concept and procedure of medical indication constitute the bridge between objective disease values and subjective values or norms. In deciding whether treatment is needed and demanded, the values of the ill subject are decisive. Thus, the controversy between naturalists and normativist may be transformed into a coalition.

Ritual Speech

Resumo: o povo indígena Apyãwa (Tapirapé) apresenta um ciclo ritual complexo, sendo que cada ritual caracteriza um evento de fala nos quais os atos de fala assumem funções essenciais. A análise das falas rituais à luz da Etnossintaxe, cujos postulados afirmam que na gramática de uma língua estão presentes os valores culturais e os ideais que organizam a vida de uma determinada sociedade, mostraram que a palavra tarywa ‘alegria’, usada para definir os rituais, evidencia um estado de ânimo peculiar aos Apyãwa, normalmente alegres e bem-humorados. Ademais, os rituais aproximam os atuais Apyãwa de seus ancestrais e dos Axyga, espíritos com os quais interagem através da oferta de cantos e alimentos, buscando bem-estar social para todos. Palavras-chave: Rituais. Eventos de Fala. Valores socioculturais. Povo Indígena Apyãwa Abstract: The indigenous people Apyãwa (Tapirapé) present a complex ritual cycle, each ritual featuring a speech event in which the speech act takes on essential functions (Hymes, 1974, 1986). In light of Ethnosyntax (ENFIELD, 2002), which assumes that in the grammar of a language cultural values and ideals that organize the life of a given society are present, the analysis of ritual speech showed that the word tarywa, 'joy', used to define the rituals shows a state of mind peculiar to the Apyãwa who are usually cheerful and humorous. Moreover, the rituals connect the current Apyãwa to their ancestors and to the Axyga, spirits with whom they interact by offering songs and food, seeking well-being for everyone. Keywords: Rituals. Speech event. Sociocultural values. Indigenous people Apyãwa.

The problem of the formation of sociocultural values of students according to the methodological and technological points of view is obtained in the article. The pedagogical toolkit has been developed by author that allows introducing a methodology for the formation of sociocultural values of students based on the identified diagnostics. The approaches include three stages of implementation: normative-cognitive, communicative-active and reflective-evaluative. The pedagogical toolkit was selected for each stage of the process of forming sociocultural values of students, suggesting effective forms and methods.The normative-cognitive stage is forms of work: project activities in the form of individual projects of a sociocultural orientation, methods: project, partially search; individual tasks, using methods of search, practical work method; in solving problematic issues, situations, the following methods were used: problematic, situational and group forms of work: research projects, (methods: project method, partial search); creative workshops, clubs, student associations, communities, methods: role-playing games, group dynamics method; intercultural associations in the form of round tables, webinars, seminars, trainings, flash mobs, using methods: empirical, role-playing games, discussion.For communicative-activity and reflective-evaluative stages, the author proposed the following forms and methods: active: resource circle (method of situations and imitations); work in pairs (methods: group dynamics, a method for solving situational problems); communicative trainings and video-trainings (methods: visualization, immersion seminar); active and interactive: business games, quests (methods: role- playing games, situational, “brainstorming”); sociocultural dialogue (methods: interaction, training); discussion using problematic and dialogue methods of communication.
