On Riemannian manifolds endowed with a locally conformal cosymplectic structure
We deal with a locally conformal cosymplectic manifold M(φ, Ω, ξ, η, g) admitting a conformal contact quasi‐torse‐forming vector field T. The presymplectic 2‐form Ω is a locally conformal cosymplectic 2‐form. It is shown that T is a 3‐exterior concurrent vector field. Infinitesimal transformations of the Lie algebra of ∧M are investigated.

Rethinking the relation between human and nature: Insights from science fiction
Abstract Facing the accumulation of data that suggest near‐future dramatic changes in our way of life, current visions of transition are anchored in an incremental paradigm that excludes radical change. Using science fiction literature and cinema, this article aims to build such drastic change hypotheses and explore the political–ecological features of

Skew‐symmetric vector fields on a CR‐submanifold of a para‐Kählerian manifold
We deal with a CR‐submanifold M of a para‐Kählerian manifold M˜, which carries a J‐skew‐symmetric vector field X. It is shown that X defines a global Hamiltonian of the symplectic form Ω on M⊤ and JX is a relative infinitesimal automorphism of Ω. Other geometric properties are given.

The Political Scientist as a Critical Friend: A Comment on Flinders
Abstract In liberal democracies, the very essence of political science is to be a critical friend. It is both legitimate and rewarding to engage in policy relevant studies. It is not banal, technocratic, or oppressive to do research into pressing social issues and to provide advice on the effectiveness or desirability of policy interventions, or to ...

Experimentalism by contact [PDF]
This essay considers literary "experimentalism" as a constructed category animated by epistemic virtues, using the case study of "contact" as both anthropological and literary values in the 1920s.

Transformation of the French Pattern of a Naturalistic Character in Ivan Franko’s Literary Works [PDF]
The article deals with the means of constructing a naturalistic character, the model for which was proposed by French writers: the Goncourt brothers and Émile Zola. Naturalists draw their personage concept from the interpretation of its biological nature.
