From the Criminalization of Substances to the “War on Drugs” Policy: A Century of Prohibitionism in Brazil by José Guilherme Magalhães e Silva, Luís Felipe Zilli, Letícia Godinho de Souza

“…A systematic analysis of national and international legislation reveals that the prohibitionist enterprise was successful in Brazil due to two factors: i) as an ideational set, it was integrated into structuring discursive fields of Brazilian political culture, dialoguing with the stigmatization of marginalized populations and criminalization of their practices; and ii) as an ordering principle of public policy, it has demonstrated remarkable resilience and adaptability, incorporating elements of alternative models into its framework without compromising its fundamental structures. …”

Ceremonial language and social cohesion: An analysis of Seumapa in Acehnese wedding traditions by Kismullah Abdul Muthalib, Dohra Fitrisia, Nia Zahara

“…Ritualistic greetings and gift exchanges portray communal harmony, while symbolic acts symbolic acts like lifting the curtain and presenting ‘hantaran’ (ceremonial gifts) from the groom to the bride and vice versa represent social identity and mutual responsibility. The integration of religious knowledge depicts the community’s prioritization of spiritual preparedness, and the use of symbolic and metaphorical language reflects societal values and aspirations, signifying the importance of wisdom, respect, and communal bonds in preserving Acehnese cultural identity.…”

High-performance hysteresis-free perovskite transistors through anion engineering by Huihui Zhu, Ao Liu, Kyu In Shim, Haksoon Jung, Taoyu Zou, Youjin Reo, Hyunjun Kim, Jeong Woo Han, Yimu Chen, Hye Yong Chu, Jun Hyung Lim, Hyung-Jun Kim, Sai Bai, Yong-Young Noh

“…We reveal ion migration has a negligible contribution to the hysteresis of Sn-based perovskite TFTs; instead, minority carrier trapping is the primary cause. Finally, we integrate the perovskite TFTs with commercialised n-channel indium gallium zinc oxide TFTs on a single chip to construct high-gain complementary inverters, facilitating the development of halide perovskite semiconductors for printable electronics and circuits.…”
