Common pool resource institutions: The rise of internet platforms in the social solidarity economy

The research problem: Theories of organising are dominated by a neo-liberal agenda. This authority has been disrupted by social and sustainable entrepreneurship research that highlights alternatives to this hegemony. The motivation for this paper is to argue that the emergence of internet platforms contributes to new ways of working in the social solidarity economy (SSE). We focus our exploration on organisational practices and characteristics, evaluating platforms as contributions to commoning. Method: Our approach offers a way out of the public-private dichotomy. We build theory by positioning the SSE as a series of approaches that hybridise redistribution, reciprocity and market: three distinct strategies of social organisations for achieving their primary purposes. Utilising Elinor Ostrom’s theory of common pool resource institutions (CPRIs) and her design principles, we appraise three internet platforms (Kiva, Loomio and Kickstarter). We triangulate organisational, academic and media narratives to assess the embeddedness of their commoning practices and potential as social innovations for a post-capitalist economy. Contribution to knowledge: Social enterprises (SEs) can develop internet platforms that use CBPP to build and support the SSE. This is the first paper to deploy Ostrom’s work to study how SEs use CBPP, thereby developing the theoretical connections between these two fields. Our findings are part of a discourse that challenges neoliberalism and identifies how the SSE contributes to sustainable development.

Accumulation and Evolution of Design Knowledge in Design Science Research: A Journey Through Time and Space

Sir Isaac Newton (1676) famously said, “If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants. ” Research is a collaborative, evolutionary endeavor—and it is no different with design science research (DSR), which builds upon existing design knowledge and creates new design knowledge to pass on to future projects. However, despite the vast, growing body of DSR contributions, scant evidence of the accumulation and evolution of design knowledge has been articulated in an organized DSR body of knowledge. Most contributions rather stand on their own feet than on the shoulders of giants, and this continues to limit how far we can see, curtailing the extent of the broader impacts that can be made through DSR. In this editorial, we aim at providing guidance on how to position design knowledge contributions in wider problem and solution spaces. We propose (1) a model conceptualizing design knowledge as a resilient relationship between problem and solution spaces, (2) a model that demonstrates how individual DSR projects consume and produce design knowledge, (3) a map to position a design knowledge contribution in problem and solution spaces, and (4) principles on how to use this map in a DSR project. We show how fellow researchers, readers, editors, and reviewers, as well as the IS community as a whole, can make use of these proposals, and also illustrate future research opportunities.

Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern of Microorganisms Isolated from Tap Surfaces in Nigeria Campus

Resistance of microorganisms to available antimicrobial agents have resulted in pernicious effect to human health over the last decades. The increase in antimicrobial resistance of pathogenic microorganisms particularly in tap surfaces is a major concern to the society. This research focused on the investigation of antimicrobial resistance pattern of pathogenic organisms (bacteria and fungi) isolated from various tap surfaces in the Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA) Obakere campus, in Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria. Samples were obtained from different locations (laboratories, hostels and toilets) in FUTA. The samples were analyzed microbiologically on selective, differential and general purpose media. The isolated organisms were identified by the routine microbiological methods. Among the pathogenic microorganisms isolated were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, K. oxytoca Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Citrobacter freundii, Acinectobacter baumannii, Staphylococcus aureus, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans and Fusarium oxysporium. The percentage distribution varies with P. aeruginosa (26.09%) having the highest percentage and Klebsiella sp. (4.45%) recorded at the lowest percentage of occurrence. All fungi isolated have simillar percentage distribution. The isolates displayed various levels of resistance to piperacillin (100%), ampicillin (66.67%). ceftazidime (66.67%), tetracycline (83.33%), cefepime (66.67%) and chloramphenicol (66.67%). The resistance to amoxicillin-clavulanate by E. coli and C. freundii isolated from taps surfaces were 60% and 50%, respectively. K. pneumoniae from tap water surface has 100% resistance to cefepime. The high resistance of microorganisms to antimicrobial agents indicated a great threat to people living within FUTA community that constantly obtaining water from these taps surfaces.
Workplace Spirituality, Organizational Citizenship Behavior, Perceived Organizational Support: Study From Indonesian Islamic Banking Employees

Workplace spirituality is a new model of management related to employee work behaviour in the organization. This research examined the relationship between workplace spirituality (WPS) toward organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). It also investigated moderator effect of perceived organizational support (POS). Samples of the study were 178 employees from Islamic Banks in Bandung, Indonesia. A technique of data collection was using survey methods with primary data that provide questions to respondents. Validity and reliability testing were used to analyze the data and two hypotheses that proposed were tested with analysis of regression. The result of first hypothesis showed that aspects WPS was significantly effect to OCB by 40.9% and the second hypothesis showed that POS has moderated effect on the influence between WPS and OCB with total of 46.4%. This research shows another empirical evidence on the relationship between WPS to OCB which specifically existing study still dominated by American or European world backgrounds. Implications for the development of management theory and practice are discussed further in this research.
Characterising plant pathogen communities and their environmental drivers at a national scale

Plant pathogens such as rust fungi (Pucciniales) are of global economic and ecological importance. As such, reliably and cost effectively detecting, identifying and monitoring these fungi at large scales is important to industry, government and research institutions. Metabarcoding is one approach, based on next-generation sequencing, that could be used for this purpose. However, metabarcoding has not been widely applied for the monitoring of rust fungi. This is in part due to uncertainties of the new approach, mainly concerning the ability to detect rare species and reliability of measuring species abundances (quantification). Furthermore, outcomes might differ between sequencing platforms, although this aspect has not been well examined. In this chapter, I investigated possible differences in (1) detection ability and (2) quantification of rust fungi from environmental DNA (eDNA) samples between two metabarcoding approaches and traditional DNA cloning. I then analysed (3) the causes of these differences. I used two fundamentally different next-generation sequencing technologies (Illumina MiSeq and Ion Torrent), and cloning followed by Sanger sequencing. I found strong biases between observed and expected numbers of shared rust fungal operational taxonomic units (OTUs) across different methods. However, there was no significant difference in abundance of OTUs that all methods were capable of detecting. Therefore, differences between the methods were mainly driven by the method’s ability to detect specific OTUs. The difference in detection could be explained by a phylogenetic bias of the methods. This bias was very likely caused by base pair mismatches of the metabarcoding
The Role of Networking in Supporting Headteachers' Professional Development and Practice in Ghana

This thesis is about headteacher professional development in Ghana and headteachers’ capacity to harness professional capital within their peer network to advance their practice. It is set against recent developments in Ghana around headteacher capacity building and the need to improve leadership practice in government basic schools where resources have been limited. Although networking and the notion of collaborative learning in professional learning communities are well-developed practices in some of the world’s best education systems, very little is known about such developments in Ghana and how the professional capital embedded in these network relations is contributing to practice. The research strategy is underpinned by pragmatic beliefs that research questions are the principal determinants of the research philosophy. Therefore, rather than committing to a research philosophy at the start of the study, the questions posed determined the methodological framework. Through a mixed-methods design, this empirical study deploys a two-phase sequential and exploratory strategy drawing on qualitative and quantitative datasets. The study finds evidence of a learning community of headteachers who, through frequent network interactions, build professional capital to enhance their practice. Headteachers indicated five key content-specific types of information and professional advice they exchange in this peer network. For these types of information and professional advice, the study reveals that age, experience, type of school or academic qualifications do not significantly influence headteacher choice of who to go to for information and professional advice. However, the data indicate a positive and significant relationship between headteacher gender and their likelihood of seeking information and professional advice about how to help ineffective teachers improve their practice and how to deliver the national curriculum effectively. The findings imply that policymakers should recognise network relations that exist among headteacher groups and direct resources to supporting peer learning and collaboration rather than the over-reliance on trainer-led workshops for headteacher professional development.
Indirect estimation of leaf area in genotypes of 'Conilon' coffee (Coffea canephora Pierre ex A. Froehner)

Leaf area is an important parameter in agronomic and physiological studies; thereby, the techniques used for its determination should be simple, fast and accurate. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of an equation for the indirect determination of leaf area in 'Conilon' (Coffea canephora) genotypes cultivated in the Western Amazon. The experiment was carried out in Porto Velho, Rondônia, in August and September 2011. It was arranged in a completely randomized 2 × 15 factorial design combining two methods of determining leaf area (estimated and actual) and fifteen 'Conilon' coffee genotypes, with 64 replicates. The estimated leaf area was determined by the equation LA = 0.3064 × Age× LMR(R=0.98), developed by Partelli et al. (2006), while the actual leaf area was obtained from images of leaves scanned into digital format using an image scanner. The genotypes belong to the Coffee Breeding Program at Embrapa Rondônia. The efficiency of the equation for determining leaf area of 'Conilon' coffee varies according to the genotype evaluated; therefore, the equation must not be used without prior calibration. As the species is a perennial crop and the number of commercial genotypes widely accepted by farmers is restricted, the validation of the equation or the development of new equations capable of estimating the leaf area of the cultivated genotypes can help in the management of coffee plantationsn.
Small Bites - Big Threats: Prevalence of scrub typhus among the pediatric population in a rural tertiary care hospital in South India

Background: It is an acute, febrile, exanthematous illness with a high fatality rate. Scrub typhus is underdiagnosed in India due to its non-specific clinical presentation, limited awareness, and low index of suspicion among clinicians and lack of diagnostic facilities. Objective : This study was carried out to know the seroprevalence of scrub typhus in clinically suspected children and to compare a rapid test which is a simple and economic test with IgM ELISA for the diagnosis of scrub typhus. Methods : This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted from a period of three months. The study population comprised mainly 140 young children attending Pediatric OP and in patients admitted to a tertiary care teaching hospital with fever and related symptoms. A serum sample was tested for Weil Felix reaction, IgM ELISA, and rapid card test. Results: The mean age group of the study population is 7 to 9years, of which seven cases were positive. The major predisposing factor for scrub typhus infection was vegetation around houses. The sensitivity and specificity of both card test and IgM ELISA was 100%. Conclusion : In this study, 5% of febrile children were positive for scrub typhus. Leptospirosis, Dengue, and Typhoid were the common co-infections found in scrub typhus, positive children. Scrub typhus should be included in the differential diagnosis of fever of unknown origin in children.

Genetic variability and divergence studies in Finger millet [Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn] germplasm

A total 158 finger millet accessions were evaluated to study the genetic diversity with the nature and magnitude of genetic divergence using Mahalanobis (1936) D statistics. Genotypic and phenotypic variances, coefficient of variation, heritability and genetic advance were estimated and cluster analysis was performed. The data was recorded on fifteen traits. The one hundred fifty eight genotypes were grouped into XIII clusters. Clusters I was the largest with 58 genotypes. Maximum heritability was observed for iron content (99.8%) followed by calcium content (99.7%), days to maturity (98.6%), days to 50% flowering (97.2%), seed yield per plant (93.7%), finger number per panicle (92.7%) and flag leaf sheath width (91.8%). Genetic advance as per cent of mean ranged from 5.425 to 137.52. Since there is significant variability observed in all the finger millet genotypes, this could be used for genetic improvement through selection and hybridization.
Empirical comparison of changes in the peel and pulp of Cavendish basrai banana ripening under various stored stages

Cavendish basrai is considered as the most commonly used banana in Pakistan. This experiment was executed to examine the assortment of basic quality profile of Cavendish basrai. Study was carried out on the diversity of four different bioactive characteristics including physical attributes, chemical composition, phenolic constituents and antioxidant potential on Cavendish basrai pulp and peel during storage at room temperature from unripe to ripe and ripped to over ripe (R1 to R8) at regular intervals of three days. The continuous increase was observed in pulp to peel ratio, which directly effects on all the bioactive constituents of both pulp and peel. As a result, moisture and sugar contents, TSS, titratable acidity, TDS, conductance, % NaCl and ash contents continuously increased with regular trends from R1 to R8 stages while regular decrease in total organic matter, total dry matter and pH was founded. Chlorophyll a and b, and carotenoids were found to have irregular trends. Phenolic constituents including total phenolic (TPC) and flavonoid contents (TFC), and total antioxidant activity evaluated by three different assays (reducing power, phosphomolybdenum and DPPH assays) increased from R1 to R6 but suddenly decreased from R7 to R8. R5 to R8 considered suitable stages for the utilization of Cavendish basrai banana In comparison to peel, significant fall down observed in bioactive characteristics with decay from R1 to R8.
Predictors of Invasiveness in Adenocarcinoma of Lung with Lepidic Growth Pattern

Lung adenocarcinoma with lepidic growth pattern (LPA) is characterized by tumor cell proliferation along intact alveolar walls, and further classified as adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) and invasive lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma (iLPA). Accurate diagnosis of lepidic lesions is critical for appropriate prognostication and management as five-year survival in patients with iLPA is lower than in those with AIS and MIA. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of CT-guided core needle lung biopsy classifying LPA lesions and identify clinical and radiologic predictors of invasive disease in biopsied lesions. Thirty-four cases of adenocarcinoma with non-invasive lepidic growth pattern on core biopsy pathology that subsequently were resected between 2011 and 2018 were identified. Invasive LPA vs. non-invasive LPA (AIS or MIA) was defined based on explant pathology. Histopathology of core biopsy and resected tumor specimens was compared for concordance, and clinical, radiologic and pathologic variables were analyzed to assess for correlation with invasive disease. The majority of explanted tumors (70.6%) revealed invasive disease. Asian race (p = 0.03), history of extrathoracic malignancy (p = 0.02) and absence of smoking history (p = 0.03) were associated with invasive disease. CT-measured tumor size was not associated with invasiveness (p = 0.15). CT appearance of density (p = 0.61), shape (p = 0.78), and margin (p = 0.24) did not demonstrate a significant difference between the two subgroups. Invasiveness of tumors with lepidic growth patterns can be underestimated on transthoracic core needle biopsies. Asian race, absence of smoking, and history of extrathoracic malignancy were associated with invasive disease.
