Comments from the Guest Editor

I want to take this opportunity to share some thoughts with the readers of Explorations about the association and the journal. The new editorial staff is in the process of making several significant changes in format as well as content of the publications. The first new beginning is a new logo, a logo which has as its central symbol the character meaning the source

Editorial

The progression from one century to the next has traditionally brought us changes in attitude, invention and convention. We want to see the instant when one century slips away and another begins as momentous. With that spirit in mind we of the Editorial Staff here at TCL have made some changes. It is my hope that this has been apparent to you from the moment you first laid eyes on this issue. With the beginning of Volume 43 The Christian Librarian has a new look

Journal preface

Recently the Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf) produced a consensus report on the standing, and the editorial policies and practices of historical journals published in South Africa, including our predecessor, the Journal for Contemporary History. The findings and recommendations of this report, to be published soon on the ASSAf website, vindicate the decision that we took last year to introduce our editorial changes at one go, rather than making piecemeal changes.Our “new broom” approach meant that we did struggle to assemble an issue in December 2019 with a sufficient number of good quality historical pieces.However, the success of our first issue, founded -we believe – on a clear editorial vision and some very good articles which showcased a diversity of historicalscholarship drawn from across the continent, meant that we have received far more submissions for this issue.Then in March, as the covid-19 pandemic arrived, South Africa entered a hard lockdown and universities closed. I must thank our authors and reviewers,and also the editorial collective and production staff for their role in putting together this issue under the most trying circumstances

Annual Survey of Virginia Law: Administrative Procedure

Since the last report, administrative law in Virginia has continued to develop on both the legislative and judicial fronts. This year\u27s General Assembly enacted amendments to the state\u27s administrative procedure statute which embody the third and final round of recommendations by the Governor\u27s Regulatory Reform Advisory Board. The major changes were the standardization of procedures for obtaining judicial review of state agency action and the embodiment in statute of a corps of independent hearing officers. Note: This submission also includes a small preface from the Law Review Editorial Staff

Eco, Latin America, and the West

The journal Eco: Revista De La Cultura De Occidente published its first volume in May 1960, with the financial support of the Instituto Cultural Colombo-Alemán in Bogotá, Colombia. The journal continued to publish its volumes on a monthly basis until 1984, weathering five changes in editorial leadership and periodic financial difficulties. In the early years, its editorial staff and contributors were drawn primarily from a small local group of European expatriate intellectuals. Its editors, in announcing their intention to provide a voice of and for la cultura de occidente, advocated a fundamental connection between Latin America and the Western tradition. At the same time, the journal proposed what at first glance must have struck many Latin American readers as little more than a curiosity: it promised to introduce its Latin American audience to a Germanic face that had historically been overshadowed in these latitudes by its French, English, and Spanish brethren

Introduction

Dear Readers,After a long break caused, on the one hand, by staff changes in the Editorial Board and, on the other, by the lingering coronavirus pandemic, another issue of the Ignatianum Philosophical Yearbook is coming out. The new editorial team has decided to expand the journal’s formula to include texts from the general humanities; thus, there will be articles not only on philosophy, but also on history, cultural and religious studies, and theology, on top of Polish and foreign literature. The journal is also open to a wide range of issues that take into account the mission of the Jesuit University Ignatianum as a Catholic research center. An important element of this approach is the issue of the Mediterranean civilizational tradition and cultural heritage, which in our understanding are the most important sources of knowledge and inspiration for the study of contemporary problems of individual people, societies and states as well

Ajalehe Lääne Elu arengulugu ja lugejaskond

This thesis is aimed at providing an overview of the development and current situation of the county newspaper Lääne Elu, in order to assist the editorial staff in maintaining the role of the community paper also in the future. Lääne Elu (“Western Life”), established in 1989 in the county of Läänemaa, is a privately owned independent newspaper. The paper was among the first to introduce modern practices of newspaper journalism as well as Western journalistic values in Estonia, successfully defeating the previous county paper in fierce competition. For the last 15 years, the newspaper has had a monopolistic position in its native community. This thesis researched the changes in the readership and the extent of target audience coverage of Lääne Elu, juxtaposing the results with those of other Estonian county newspapers. Data from Estonian market research companies was used for this purpose. Interviews with opinion leaders in the county helped chart the expectations that the populace of Läänemaa has of the community newspaper. Interviews with the founder of the paper and the journalist with the longest tenure reflected the changes in the organisation of the work of and the values held high by the editorial staff throughout the period of the paper’s publication. Using content analysis, shifts in the extent of classical newsworthiness within the context of general news, as well as the topics of the general news’ headlines were observed. In addition, structural changes in the composition of the editorial staff were monitored. The study reveals that within its scope and readership, Lääne Elu is capable of fulfilling the role of the community paper — the newspaper is read by 2/3 of the adult population of the county, the highest indicator of its kind among Estonian county papers. Yet, in recent years, readership of the paper outside the county has steadily grown, and already more than a quarter of the readers only access the online edition. This is a challenge to the editorial staff, as systematic development of the online edition and active sales of advertising to this medium have yet to be initiated. The paper is read more by senior residents of Läänemaa; propagation of the newspaper is the smallest among the youths. Quality of the general news stories in accordance to their newsworthiness has grown throughout the years, while the scope of topics in the headlines of these stories has mostly stayed the same. Local politics, history, native culture and public order are dominant among the topics, yet important issues like subsistence and agriculture are almost absent. Throughout the years, the manpower of the newspaper, including the editorial staff, has dwindled. Many journalists have gone on to work for nation-wide media channels; finding replacements has been complicated. The ability of the editorial staff to shape opinions has diminished, as has the frequency of intra-paper discussions. The interviews suggested that the newspaper, while boasting a strong news section, has regressed in the area of opinions and feature stories. The thesis demonstrates to the owners and the editorial staff of “Lääne Elu” the challenges the paper as a community periodical is facing.http://www.ester.ee/record=b4015184*es
