Kazetaritza euskaraz. Oraina eta geroa

Txikiegia, agian. Euskarazko Kazetaritzaren mundua oraindik ere txikiegia izan daiteke, bai behintzat inguruan dituen erdarazko kazetaritzekin alderatuz gero: ur tanta apala ozeanoaren erdian, kimu txiker lañoa basoaren handitasunean. Handiak zeharka begiratu izan dio beti txikiari, eta txikiak, inbidiaz, handiari. Txikitasunetik datozkio arazo gehien Euskarazko Kazetaritzari. Hala ere, bere txikitasunean handia da, eta maitagarria. Unibertso zabala biltzeko gai izan da, itsasoak eskaintzen duen kolore-aniztasunaren pareko, basoak opa digun joritasunaren kideko. Itsasoan eta basoan, ordea, den-dena ez da eder eta kolore bizi. Batean zein bestean, alde ilun eta ezezagun ugari daude, baita mehatxu franko ere. Esku artean duzun liburua dibertsitate horren isla da, lagun. Horixe du helburu, behintzat. Alde horretatik, oso pozgarria da ondorengo orrialdeetan bildu diren adituen ekarpenen maila zein jasoa den egiaztatzea. Euskarazko Kazetaritzaren inguruan ez da inoiz horrenbeste gogoetarik egin, ezta ere horrenbeste iritzi eta azterketarik bildu testu bakar batean. Mundu hau dezente aldatu dela azken hamarkadetan. Duela hogeita hamar bat urte, esaterako, Euskal Herrian oso gutxi ziren euskaraz jarduten zuten profesionalak. Orduko kazetari euskaldunek oso aukera gutxi zeuzkaten: Herria, Zeruko Argia, Anaitasuna, Goiz Argi, Herri Irratiak… eta ezer gutxi gehiago. Gaur egun, ordea, Euskarazko Kazetaritza Euskal Herri osoan presentzia duen errealitatea da: 700 profesional inguru eta 250etik gora hedabide dira horren lekuko. Baditugu Euskal Herri osoan eta euskaraz diharduten egunkari, atari elektroniko, astekari, irrati eta telebistak. Horretaz gain, badugu, herriz herri, eta sektorez sektore, osatzen joan den hedabide txiki berri eta ertainen sare zabala: zortzi herri telebista, 30 irrati, 60 herri aldizkari, 61 aldizkari espezializatu, 60 berripaper, 34 eskoletako argitalpen eta hamarnaka hedabide elektroniko. Hori guztia 779.788 hiztun dituen komunitate batean. Bistan denez, Euskarazko Kazetaritza izugarri hazi da, oso handia baita mundu honek berezkoa duen indar-sortzailea. Errealitate hori makina bat pertsona, elkarte, gizarte-mugimendu eta erakunderen ahalegin eta elkarlanaren ondorioa izan da. Orobat, hazkunde ikaragarri horrek agerian utzi ditu sektorean dauden hainbat ahulezia: egoera soziolinguistikoa, merkatu txikiak, lan-baldintza makurrak eta dirulaguntza-politika definitu gabeak, besteak beste. Euskarazko Kazetaritza beregaintasuna lortzetik urrun da, oraindik ere. Horretaz guztiaz hitz egiten da liburu honetan. Hemen Euskarazko Kazetaritzaren baitan edo inguruan dabiltzan 50 inguru profesional eta adituk hartu dute hitza beren ikuspuntua plazaratzeko, beren ikerketak azaltzeko, beren kezkak agertzeko eta, etorkizunari begira, planteatzen diren erronkez beren gogoetak egiteko. Iraganari erreparatu zaio, baina indar gehien orainean eta geroan jarri nahi izan dugu. Ondorengo orriotan Euskarazko Kazetaritzaren diagnostikoa egiten da, testu zientifiko batek exijitzen dituen zehaztasun eta zintzotasunez. Lehen atala Euskarazko Komunikazioaren Esparrua definitzeari eskaini diogu, oso garrantzitsua baita zer garen edota zer ez garen hasiera-hasieratik jakitea. Baina ez gaude soilik geure zilborrari begira egoteko. Horregatik txertatu ditugu hemen George Jones galestarrak, Günther Rautz tiroldarrak eta Logi Bergmann Eiösson islandiarrak ekarri dizkiguten ikuspuntuak eta esperientzia aberasgarriak. Bigarren atala -”Euskarazko hedabideak” izenekoa- da gizenena. Euskaraz diharduten hedabide garrantzitsuenek dute hemen beren esperientziak eta erronkak plazaratzeko agertokia, baita Internet bidez zabaltzen direnek ere. Berton euskarazko publizitatearen inguruan dauden gabeziez ere egiten da gogoeta. “Bideak eraikitzeko ahaleginean” da hirugarren atalari eman zaion izenburu nagusia. Euskarazko Kazetaritza gaur egun errealitate emankorra bada, neurri handi batean berton diharduten eragileek historikoki elkarlanerako erakutsi duten prestutasun nabarmenari esker izan da. Gizarte-eragile esanguratsuek hartu dute hitza beren ikuspuntuak eta premiak agertzeko, beren kezkak gizarteratzeko. Guztion ahotan gogoeta bera: sinergiak sustatu eta baliabideen erabilera optimizatu egin behar dira. Laugarren atala etorkizunari begira jarri dugu, handiak baitira ate joka ditugun erronka eta jomugak; ez soilik teknologia berriei begira, baita hizkuntza eta kazetari euskaldunon lan-baldintza hobetzeari erreparatuta ere. Azken atalean ondorio nagusiak bildu ditugu. Gure uste apalean, liburu honetatik atera daitezkeen gogoetarik funtsezkoenak dira. Behar-beharrezkoa da horiei arretaz erreparatzea, Euskarazko Kazetaritzak aurrera egin nahi badu behintzat. Mardula da, zalantzarik gabe, esku artean duzun liburua. Hasieran azpimarratu ditugun aniztasuna eta joritasuna islatu nahi izan ditugu hemen. Euskarazko Kazetaritzare

Development of Values after Compulsory School: Work comes first, then family

During school-to-work transition, adolescents develop values and prioritize what is im-portant in their life. Values are concepts or beliefs about desirable states or behaviors that guide the selection or evaluation of behavior and events, and are ordered by their relative importance (Schwartz & Bilsky, 1987). Stressing the important role of values, career re-search has intensively studied the effect of values on educational decisions and early career development (e.g. Eccles, 2005; Hirschi, 2010; Rimann, Udris, & Weiss, 2000). Few re-searchers, however, have investigated so far how values develop in the early career phase and how value trajectories are influenced by individual characteristics. Values can be oriented towards specific life domains, such as work or family. Work values include intrinsic and extrinsic aspects of work (e.g., self-development, cooperation with others, income) (George & Jones, 1997). Family values include the importance of partner-ship, the creation of an own family and having children (Mayer, Kuramschew, & Trommsdroff, 2009). Research indicates that work values change considerably during early career development (Johnson, 2001; Lindsay & Knox, 1984). Individual differences in work values and value trajectories are found e.g., in relation to gender (Duffy & Sedlacek, 2007), parental background (Loughlin & Barling, 2001), personality (Lowry et al., 2012), educa-tion (Battle, 2003), and the anticipated timing of school-to-work transition (Porfeli, 2007). In contrast to work values, research on family value trajectories is rare and knowledge about the development during the school-to-work transition and early career development is lack-ing. This paper aims at filling this research gap. Focusing on family values and intrinsic work values and we expect a) family and work val-ues to change between ages 16 and 25, and b) that initial levels of family and work values as well as value change to be predicted by gender, reading literacy, ambition, and expected du-ration of education. Method. Using data from 2620 young adults (59.5% females), who participated in the Swiss longitudinal study TREE, latent growth modeling was employed to estimate the initial level and growth rate per year for work and family values. Analyses are based on TREE-waves 1 (year 2001, first year after compulsory school) to 8 (year 2010). Variables in the models included family values and intrinsic work values, gender, reading literacy, ambition and ex-pected duration of education. Language region was included as control variable. Results. Family values did not change significantly over the first four years after leaving compulsory school (mean slope = -.03, p =.36). They increased, however, significantly five years after compulsory school (mean slope = .13, p >.001). Intercept (.23, p < .001), first slope (.02, p < .001), and second slope (.01, p < .001) showed significant variance. Initial levels were higher for men and those with higher ambitions. Increases were found to be steeper for males as well as for participants with lower educational duration expectations and reading skills. Intrinsic work values increased over the first four years (mean slope =.03, p <.05) and showed a tendency to decrease in the years five to ten (mean slope = -.01, p < .10). Intercept (.21, p < .001), first slope (.01, p < .001), and second slope (.01, p < .001) showed signifi-cant variance, meaning that there are individual differences in initial levels and growth rates. Initial levels were higher for females, and those with higher ambitions, expecting longer educational pathways, and having lower reading skills. Growth rates were lower for the first phase and steeper for the second phase for males compared to females. Discussion. In general, results showed different patterns of work and family value trajecto-ries, and different individual factors related to initial levels and development after compul-sory school. Developments seem to fit to major life and career roles: in the first years after compulsory school young adults may be engaged to become established in one's job; later on, raising a family becomes more important. That we found significant gender differences in work and family trajectories may reflect attempts to overcome traditional roles, as over-all, women increase in work values and men increase in family values, resulting in an over-all trend to converge.

Displaced diatom, discoasters and benthic foraminifers at DSDP Hole 72-515A

Late Pliocene to Recent sediments from the southern Brazil Basin (DSDP Hole 515A, hydraulic piston core) were analyzed for evidence of episodic flow of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) through the Vema Channel. Carbonate-enriched layers punctuate the post-Pliocene section, otherwise composed predominantly of terrigenous silt and clay. Carbonate enrichment is thought to result from rapid deposition of fine-grained calcareous turbidites, originating in canyons incised on the northern margin of the Rio Grande Rise. The composition of benthic foraminiferal assemblages and the presence of stratigraphically displaced discoasters is consistent with a turbidite origin. Based on the presence of displaced Antarctic diatoms, AABW flow through the Vema Channel apparently has had a major influence on this site for only four periods during the last 2.7 Ma (about 45 to 250; 375 to 430; 700 to 780; 1320 to 1345 thousand yr. ago).
