Corporate Governance as a Mechanism for Ensuring Sustainable Growth and Financial Control
Authors:   Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, Gryzunova Natalya
Published: October 2022

Many companies are changing their financial behavior and corporate governance model in order to achieve a sufficient level of competitiveness. Corporate governance is a process of overcoming the problems of a company’s growth and identifying sources of funding, one of which is emission. At present, the problem of the relationship between corporate governance and other aspects of management, for example, with competitiveness and the search for investments, is poorly consecrated. A change in the format of financing inevitably affects the nature of corporate governance - one or another version of insider corporate governance arises. The purpose of the article is to assess the impact of the corporate governance model on the company’s growth indicators and its competitiveness. Currently, additional drivers of economic growth and tools for strengthening competitiveness are needed. If earlier, companies tried to increase the capitalization of companies, increase the efficiency of the use of resources and production, and thus increase the income of shareholders, now shareholders are interested in creating a competitive stable company with stable growth prospects. The problems of optimizing the structure of equity capital, its dependence on the stage of the life cycle, capitalization, break-even point, the number of shareholders and the status of the company are constantly being discussed. The financial behavior of market entities has changed, the volumes of disintermediation have been reduced, further differentiation of tax rates has occurred, which leads to the need for: formation of a mechanism for sustainable growth and strengthening the competitiveness of the company; creation of stable profit distribution schemes and optimization of the tax burden on investors, both for companies and individuals; differentiation of investors; ensuring adequate dividend payments.

The world’s energy markets remain uncertain, with no accurate, optimistic forecasts. The authors of the article noted that the energy crisis has a cumulative effect; its beginning has changed all the rules of energy cooperation in the market. This contributed to increased demand, prices and competition. The EU is a major market participant whose policies affect all energy connections. Russia is an energy core that offers its energy sources to balance the market. This is the economy, there is no talk of “political pressure”. As a result, the authors conclude that the project “Nord Stream-2” is not a political project, but a purely commercial one, which will help to reduce even spot prices in the European gas market, since all other countries, extractive gas cannot meet the growing energy needs of European countries.

One of the most pressing problems of the regional economy is innovative development. Due to the fact that there is significant differentiation of regions in the Russian Federation in terms of socio-economic development, there is an increasing need to form a qualitatively new national innovation system. In modern conditions the innovative development of the territory is influenced by such fundamental indicators as availability of innovation potential, creation of innovation infrastructure that promotes innovation activity, the degree of state support. The formation and improvement of the region’s innovation system is becoming an important task due to the process of transition to a knowledge-based economy. In turn, innovation activity is defined as a competitive advantage, contributes to economic modernization and is a factor in smoothing the differentiation of the country’s regions by the pace of innovation transformation. Development of the innovation system involves the spread of available innovations to all sectors of the domestic economy and a shift in the focus of innovation development to other areas of scientific and technological development. The task of wide introduction of innovations and modernization of the Russian economy on this basis is only achievable if cooperation and coordination of interests of the state, science and business, as well as public participation in the discussion of problems and prospects of innovative development are achieved.

Published: October 2022

ABSTRACT Objectives: to verify the relationship of cardiovascular diseases with acute kidney injury and assess the prognosis of patients in renal replacement therapy. Methods: a cohort study, carried out in a public hospital specialized in cardiology. Treatment, comorbidities, duration of treatment, laboratory tests, discharge and deaths were analyzed. Results: of the 101 patients, 75 (74.3%) received non-dialysis treatment. The most frequent cardiological diagnoses were hypertension, cardiomyopathies and coronary syndrome. Hospitalization in patients undergoing dialysis was 18 days, hemoglobin <10.5g/dl and anuria in the first days of hospitalization contributed to the type of treatment. Each increase in hemoglobin units from the first day of hospitalization decreases the chance of dialysis by 19.2%. There was no difference in mortality. Conclusions: the main cardiological diseases were not predictive of dialysis indication, and clinical treatment was the most frequent. Anuria and anemia were predictors for dialysis treatment.

The impact of investment in intellectual capital on firms’ profitability
Authors: Costa Cristianne F. R. , Nossa Silvania N. , Nossa Valcemiro , Oliveira Edvan S.
Published: October 2022

Abstract Purpose: This study investigates the effect of investment in intellectual capital and its components on the performance of Brazilian companies listed on the Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (B3) exchange. More specifically, we examine whether a positive relationship exists between the proxies for intellectual, structural, human, and invested capital and firms’ return on assets and equity. Originality/value: This study differs from those of Richieri (2007), Turra et al. (2015), and Brizolla and Turra (2015) by using panel data and static and dynamic econometric regression models to analyze firms’ performance. It also differs from Nadeem et al. (2018) by using return on equity and return on assets to measure performance. Design/methodology/approach: We estimated two equations employing static estimators (static OLS and fixed effect) and dynamic estimators (dynamic OLS and GMM), as proposed by Nadeem et al. (2018). We performed strict exogeneity tests to ascertain the need to use dynamic models. Thus, the first equation analyzed the effect of intellectual capital on future performance (measured by ROA and ROE). In contrast, the second equation investigated the impact of structural, invested, and human capital on these same performance indicators. Findings: The results indicate a positive effect of investment in intellectual capital on the performance of Brazilian companies. In addition, all components of intellectual capital are significant in increasing returns on assets and equity.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the individual and social vulnerabilities of women deprived of their liberty for violence suffered before entering the prison system. Method: an analytical crosssectional study, carried out with 272 inmates of a female prison unit, in the Metropolitan Region of Fortaleza, Ceará. We applied two instruments: a form to analyze sociodemographic information and the violence suffered prior to entering the prison and the Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST), which analyzed the history of psychoactive substance use. Results: 44.5% of women suffered violence. Most of the total sample was between 18 and 29 years old, with children, low education and income, early onset of sexual life and history of illicit drug use. Age between 18 and 29 years proved to be a protective factor against violence (OR = 0.632). Cocaine and crack use (p =0.002), amphetamines and ecstasy (p =0.018) increase the chance of violence by 2.2 to 3.3 times. Conclusion: aspects of the individual and social dimensions of vulnerability are associated with the occurrence of violence in women in the female prison system. Effective strategies need to be designed based on vulnerabilities to prevent violence against women.

Abstract Objective To analyze the temporal trend of the incidence rate of new HIV/AIDS cases in the old-aged, from 2007 to 2020, in the state of Bahia, in the Northeast Region and in Brazil. Methods Ecological time series study, using secondary data from 2007 to 2020 in an elderly population. Calculations of the HIV/AIDS incidence rate and frequency distribution of sociodemographic characteristics and exposure categories were performed. Simple linear regression models were estimated for trend analysis and calculated by the annual percentage change (APC). Results In Brazil, during the study period, there was stability in the trend of the HIV/AIDS incidence rate for the general population and for both sexes. In the Northeast there was an increase for the general (APC=6.4%), for males (APC=6.9%) and females (APC=6.5%). In Bahia, there was an increase for the general (APC=7.4%) and male sex (APC=7.4%), and stability for females. Higher proportions of new cases in the elderly were observed in males, whites (Brazil), blacks (Northeast and Bahia), low education and heterosexual exposure category. Conclusion Attention should be paid to the increase in cases in individuals in the third age seeking to demystify taboos about the sexuality of the elderly in order to promote the adoption of health promotion measures, aiming at reducing the transmission of the virus.

Published: October 2022

Resumo Introdução: A utilização da razão albumina/creatinina e da razão proteína total/creatinina em amostras isoladas de urina já foram validadas como substitutos para a albuminúria e proteinúria em 24 horas. Assim, nossa hipótese é que o tipo de proteinúria, dado pelo padrão eletroforético da urina de 24 horas, poderia ser previsto pela simples proporção de albumina no conteúdo total de proteínas na urina, utilizando a razão albumina/proteína (RAP). O presente estudo procurou validar o uso da RAP como um substituto mais prático e de menor custo da eletroforese de proteínas urinárias (EPU). Métodos: Foram utilizados diferentes modelos matemáticos a fim de comparar a fração de albumina pela eletroforese em amostras de urina de 24 horas e a RAP em amostras isoladas em 42 pacientes ambulatoriais com doença renal crônica. Resultados: Foi observada uma forte correlação logarítmica r = 0,84 (0,75–0,92; 95% CI, p = 0,001) entre a RAP e a fração de albumina pela EPU. Conclusão: A RAP pode substituir a eletroforese urinária em pacientes renais crônicos ambulatoriais.

Published: October 2022

Abstract Introduction Children with chronic liver diseases are exposed to biological and/or environmental risk factors that can compromise their neuromotor acquisition and development of functional skills. Objective To describe the neuropsychomotor development (NPMD) and functional skills of children with chronic liver diseases. Methods Cross-sectional, descriptive and exploratory study carried out with children up to 6 years old who were selected at a reference hospital in the state of Bahia, Brazil, from November 2019 to March 2020. Children in outpatient care with clinical, laboratory and histological diagnosis compatible with chronic liver disease were considered eligible. The instrument for assessing neuropsychomotor development was Denver II. Functional skills were obtained by applying the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory computer-adaptive test (PEDI-CAT) to parents or primary caregivers, Speedy version (Speedy-CAT). Results Of the 34 children with chronic liver disease, 52.9% were female, aged between 4 and 6 years (64%). The results of the Denver II test showed that 68.7% (22/32) of the sample were at risk for NPMD. In the PEDI-CAT, the scores of children with liver disease at risk for NPMD were 60.7 ± 9.1 in the daily activity domains, 57.6 ± 11.8 in mobility and 48.3 ± 6.2 in the social/cognitive domains. Conclusion Children with chronic liver disease are at risk for NPMD, although not presenting impaired functional skills when evaluated by the PEDI-CAT.

Published: October 2022

Abstract Introduction The International Physical Activity Ques-tionnaire (IPAQ) and Baecke inventory are commonly used in cardiovascular rehabilitation routines. Thus, it is understood that investigations on the equivalence of outcomes between these two tools may be relevant to measure the magnitude of possible reproducibility and correlations between them. Objective To compare in cardiac patients the level of physical activity obtained through the IPAQ and Baecke inventory and correlate outcomes obtained with a 6-minute walk test. Methods In total, 65 heart disease patients included in a cardiovascular rehabilitation program (40 male and 25 female) were included, with a mean age of 65.8 ± 10.5 years. The data were obtained from the application of a standardized form, containing the proposed study objects, which were the IPAQ and Baecke inventory. In addition, data regarding anthropometric measurements (body mass, height, and body mass index - BMI), waist-to-hip ratio, blood pressure, and performance in the 6-minute walk test were measured. Results The main outcomes refer to the weak association between the instruments evaluated, which showed a strong relationship only between free time physical activity (r = 1), while in the other categories and when compared to the 6-minute walk test, the verified agreement was not significant. Conclusion The questionnaires are strongly equivalent only for free time physical activity, in the other categories and when compared to the 6-minute walk test, the agreement was not significant. Thus, based on the results, implementation in clinical practice considering the use of these tools with equivalence is not recommended.

Authors: Lima Luana , Boeira Laura dos Santos , Albuquerque Aline , Marques Thatiana Ayres
Published: October 2022

Resumo O suicídio é um grave problema de saúde pública mundial. Este estudo parte de um referencial teórico-normativo fundamentado nas normas de direitos humanos aplicáveis aos pacientes, no contexto dos cuidados em saúde. Objetivou-se investigar a violação dos direitos humanos dos pacientes em risco de suicídio. Foram realizadas 11 entrevistas semiestruturadas com profissionais da saúde, pacientes e familiares em quatro capitais brasileiras. Trata-se de uma pesquisa empírica qualitativa apoiada no método hermenêutico-dialético. Foi identificada a dificuldade dos profissionais em lidar com a temática, especialmente através da reprodução de condutas estigmatizantes, morais, religiosas, paternalistas e/ou hipervigilantes. Observou-se a violação dos direitos humanos dos pacientes, comprometendo o cuidado ofertado, a continuidade do tratamento, o protagonismo, a privacidade e a capacidade decisional do paciente, além do aumento da vulnerabilidade e do risco de novas tentativas. Entre os entrevistados, não houve consenso a respeito da conscientização das violações por parte dos profissionais. A proteção desses pacientes pressupõe a adoção de medidas de capacitação das equipes de saúde, processos de sensibilização e de informação para a sociedade, assim como a criação de políticas e legislações específicas, de modo a ampliar o entendimento sobre direitos humanos e prevenção do suicídio.
O “Ato Médico” e as disputas jurisdicionais entre as profissões de saúde
Authors: Tenório Marília , Oliveira Raquel , Morais Heloisa
Published: October 2022

Resumo O artigo analisou as implicações do Ato Médico na ordenação das relações entre as profissões de saúde e em aspectos relacionados ao controle do campo de conhecimento médico, à prática profissional e ao mercado de trabalho em saúde. Por meio de pesquisa qualitativa, investigou-se o Ato Médico mediante análise documental de material proveniente de 18 edições do Jornal Medicina do Conselho Federal de Medicina (CFM) (223 edições consultadas entre 1998 e 2018). Foram evidenciados interesses particulares no processo de negociação e de efetivação da Lei do Ato Médico, reconhecida como instrumento de controle profissional decorrente das transformações ocorridas no sistema de profissões da saúde e no mercado de trabalho em saúde. A regulamentação profissional dirigida ao exercício exclusivo de atos profissionais considerados atos médicos aparece como uma vantagem para a corporação médica. Ao pretender a exclusividade da prática médica em múltiplas abrangências, o Ato Médico termina por intensificar conflitos com profissões da saúde que compartilham seus atos profissionais. Foi concluído que o Ato Médico poderia ser também entendido enquanto resultado de um movimento pela valorização das bases liberais de atuação, objetivando a defesa da prática individual, da livre escolha, do custeio dos serviços pelo cliente e da prestação direta dos serviços.
Performance of postgraduate training in collective health and SUS development: Is there a relationship?
Authors: Minayo Maria Cecília de Souza
Published: October 2022

Abstract This essay asks whether and to what extent the stricto sensu postgraduate programs in public health contribute to the development of the Brazilian National Health System (SUS). The hypothesis is positive, although an obvious and spontaneous movement is not stated, since scientific evidence is never mechanically adopted; implementation is a political act of management and not a result of academic studies. The argument is that these programs balance between two commitments: they obey the educational logic of the highest level of higher education and the development of science and technology, but they aim at knowledge and qualification of the health sector. The bases that support this text are articles and reports that deal with the significance of science, technology and innovation for world and national development; articles dealing with the job market of postgraduate students; and testimonies of 16 program coordinators whose relevance is highlighted in the analysis of the work. It is concluded that there is an effect, sometimes diffuse, sometimes concrete, of postgraduate courses on the performance of SUS and other national institutions. The contributions of doctoral, academic master’s and professional master’s programs differ, each in its own way is fundamental for the qualification of SUS.

Resumo Objetivo: Estimar a prevalência e fatores associados à atividade sexual desprotegida na população brasileira. Métodos: Estudo transversal com 61.523 adultos, na idade de 18 anos ou mais, participantes da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde 2019. Foram estimadas as prevalências de atividade sexual desprotegida no último ano. A associação das variáveis socioeconômicas e demográficas com o desfecho foi analisada pela regressão de Poisson, com estimação das razões de prevalência (RPs) e intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95%). Resultados: A prevalência de atividade sexual desprotegida foi de 76,9% (IC95% 76,3;77,6), maior em todas as macrorregiões nacionais quando comparadas à região Norte, em moradores da zona rural (RP = 1,04; IC95% 1,03;1,06), sexo feminino (RP = 1,06; IC95% 1,05;1,08), idade de 60 anos ou mais (RP = 1,33; IC95% 1,27;1,38), casados (RP = 1,25; IC95% 1,23;1,27) e menos escolarizados (RP = 1,05; IC95% 1,03;1,06). Conclusão: Estratégias direcionadas aos grupos com maior prevalência de atividade sexual desprotegida são necessárias.

Published: October 2022

O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever os significados, representações de saúde e doença e as práticas terapêuticas no contexto sociocultural dos idosos indígenas Makuxi, de uma determinada comunidade, na Terra Indígena Raposa/Serra do Sol. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo e exploratório, fundamentado pelos pressupostos etnográficos, realizado com 20 indígenas. Os dados foram coletados no mês de janeiro de 2020, por intermédio de um questionário semiestruturado, e submetidos a análise de conteúdo de Bardin, e análise textual por meio do software Iramuteq. O entendimento de saúde e doença para os idosos Makuxi compõe questões de sua vida cotidiana como: a importância do trabalho na roça, o consumo de alimentos típicos da cultura e aspectos da terceira idade. O processo de adoecimento, em sua visão, está fortemente ligado ao feitiço, e a busca pelo tratamento tradicional é comum nestes casos, mas o itinerário terapêutico ocorre entre os sistemas tradicionais e biomédico. Conclui-se que o conhecimento do processo saúde doença dos idosos indígenas possui um forte teor cultural associado à cosmovisão Makuxi, mas que já sofreu transformações devido ao contato com não indígenas.

Planning road network layout based on connectivity assessment of critical assets
Authors: Hadjidemetriou Georgios M , Herrera Manuel , Parlikad Ajith K
Published: October 2022

Road infrastructure is necessary for any country to function, on which daily life depends. Novel sources of vulnerability, such as climate change or increased interdependencies among networks due to technological advancements, can lead to road disruptions. Those disruptions may have catastrophic results if there are no alternative routes to serve traffic. State-of-the-art research in improving transport network connectivity and consequently resilience focuses on adopting a network perspective. However, there is no comprehensive, widespread method for evaluating connectivity and proposing alternative routes to enhance it. Presented herein is a framework that, firstly, assesses road network connectivity using a ‘closeness’ measure and, secondly, proposes the development of optimal alternative routes, using a genetic algorithm. The case study examines routes passing by the vulnerable asset of bridges. The results showed a significant improvement of network connectivity and the potential of the method to serve as a basis for updated transport infrastructure planning practices.
Breastfeeding while on treatment with antiseizure medications: a systematic review from the ILAE Women Task Force
Authors: Tomson Torbjörn , Battino Dina , Bromley Rebecca , Kochen Silvia , Meador Kimford J. , Pennell Page B. , Thomas Sanjeev V.
Published: October 2022

We carried out a systematic review of published information on transfer of antiseizure medications (ASMs) into breastmilk, ASM serum concentrations in breastfed infants, and the wellbeing of infants breastfed by mothers on ASM treatment. Information was extracted from 85 relevant articles. No data on ASM levels in breastmilk or in breastfed infants was identified for cannabidiol, cenobamate, clobazam, eslicarbazepine‐acetate, everolimus, felbamate, fenfluramine, retigabine, rufinamide, stiripentol, tiagabine, and vigabatrin. For ASMs, with available information on levels in breastfed infants, very low concentrations (in the order of 10% or less of maternal serum concentrations) were reported for carbamazepine, gabapentin, levetiracetam, oxcarbazepine, phenytoin, valproate, and clonazepam. Slightly higher levels (up to approximately 30% of maternal serum concentrations) have been observed with lamotrigine and topiramate, and in single case reports for brivaracetam, lacosamide, and perampanel. High infant levels (30% up to 100% of maternal serum concentrations) have been reported with ethosuximide, phenobarbital and zonisamide. Adverse infant effects during breastfeeding by mothers on ASMs appear to be rare regardless of the type of ASM, but systematic study is limited. Prospective long‐term follow‐up studies of developmental outcomes among children who have been breastfed by mothers taking ASMs are sparse and have mainly involved children whose mothers were taking carbamazepine, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, phenytoin or valproate as monotherapy while breastfeeding. Although these studies have not indicated poorer outcome among breastfed children compared with those who were not breastfed, further data on long‐term outcomes are needed to draw firm conclusions. It is concluded that breastfeeding should in general be encouraged in women taking ASMs, given the well‐established benefits of breastfeeding with regard to both short‐ and long‐term infant health in the general population. Counselling needs to be individualized including information on the current knowledge regarding the woman's specific ASM treatment.
Visual word form area hyperexcitability associated with focal epileptiform activity in a case of reading epilepsy
Authors: Borges Daniel Filipe , Soares Joana Isabel , Correia Filipe , Nascimento Fábio A. , Leal Alberto
Published: October 2022

Reading epilepsy recruits critical language‐related areas, with synchronization and subsequent spreading of excitation in response to the epileptogenic stimulus. The mechanism by which possible generalized discharges result in the expression of bilateral or unilateral clinical symptoms remains controversial. The cortical and subcortical areas involved may constitute part of the normal reading network, such as the visual word form area (VWFA). A right‐handed, 59‐year‐old man was diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of 15 after tonic‐clonic seizures. Later, the patient described myoclonic jerks of the masticatory and perioral muscles while reading. A multimodal approach with magnetic resonance imaging and ambulatory and video‐electroencephalogram was used for seizure characterization and source analysis. A left hemisphere spontaneous occipitaltemporal epileptic focus, activated by reading, was observed, spreading broadly throughout frontal and temporal language networks. There was an abnormally increased cortical response to visual word presentation in comparison to pseudowords. Spatial localization of spike sources suggested a close association between the primary epileptic focus and the VWFA. This epileptiform activity seems to be selectively triggered at an early stage of lexical processing, with a functional connection between the epileptic network and the VWFA. This multimodal and functional connectivity approach could be helpful in determining the epileptic network in reading epilepsy.

Ajatus kirjoittaa pienimuotoinen historiateos Professoriliiton Jyväskylän osaston historiasta syntyi osaston johtokunnassa loppusyksystä 2020, kun osastossa valmistauduttiin osaston 50-vuotisjuhlallisuuksiin. Suunnitelmana oli koota tiivis esitys toiminnan pääpiirteistä ja liittää se osaksi suomalaisen korkeakoulupolitiikan, Jyväskylän yliopiston ja Professoriliiton yleisiä kehityskulkuja. Professoriliiton hallitus näytti hankkeelle omalta osaltaan vihreää valoa ja myönsi avustuksen toteutukseen. Kiitämme tuesta lämpimästi. Avustuksen turvin pystyimme palkkaamaan talvella 2021 tutkimusavustajan, johon tehtävään rekrytoitiin historianopiskelija, HuK Tapio Roiko-Jokela. Hänen tehokas ja systemaattinen työskentelytapansa aineiston keruussa helpotti merkittävästi työtämme, kiitos siitä. Samoin kiitämme osaston toiminnassa mukana olleita henkilöitä kaikilta kuudelta tähänastiselta vuosikymmeneltä sekä erityisesti professori Janne Vilkunaa luvasta julkaista hänen kirjoituksensa professoriosaston retkistä erillisenä tietolaatikkona tässä teoksessa. Julkaisukoordinaattori Sini Tuikka ja julkaisutoimittaja Timo Hautala Jyväskylän yliopiston Avoimen tiedon keskuksesta toteuttivat ripeästi ja ammattitaidolla tekstin julkaisukuntoon – kiitos siitä!showless

Nowadays, intensive technological development and transition to a new (VI) technological paradigm are seen as determinants of the quality of economic and welfare growth. Thus, analysis of interregional differentiation of Russian constituent entities and assessment of the relationship between their socio-economic indicators and technological development became relevant. However, insufficient attention is paid to the influence of the regional technological development on the welfare of residents. In this regard, the present study aims to assess this influence in Russia, as well as to link the population welfare growth with the phases of Kondratieff waves and the stages of the technological paradigm. The research methodology includes: cluster analysis used to group regions according to a set of parameters characterising the welfare of their inhabitants; calculation of composite indicators that were applied to create a ranking of regions; estimation of correlation coefficients. An approach was developed to analyse the regional technological development based on a composite indicator that includes three indices: internal costs for research and development; the share of enterprises implementing technological innovations in the total number of surveyed organisations; the share of innovative goods, works, services in the total volume of shipped goods, works, services. The constituent entities of Russia were ranked according to the obtained composite indicator of technological development. Then, 20 leading and 20 lagging regions were identified, for which the correlation coefficients were calculated. The study concluded that an increase in the welfare is achieved at the growth stage of a new technological paradigm, while an increase in poverty and a decrease in incomes of the population can be observed at the maturity stage of the previous technological paradigms.
Interregional Differentiation of the Age of Exit from the Labour Market in Russia

Actual retirement age is one of the most important characteristics of older people employment and retirement behaviour. Since the mid-1990s, the effective retirement age has been used to estimate the age of exit from the labour market of older workers. In the context of significant socio-economic differentiation of Russian regions, this parameter should be assessed not only at the national, but also at the regional level. The article presents estimates of the age of exit from the labour market (effective retirement age) in Russian regions for 2010-2019, as well as identifies the factors determining its interregional differentiation. For the first time, the effective retirement age and its determining factors were assessed using Russian data. In particular, Labour Force Survey and regional statistics were analysed. To calculate the effective retirement age, both static and dynamic approaches were applied; econometric modelling was used to identify its determinants. The study revealed that in 2019 the age of exit from the labour market was 62.4 years for men and 60.2 years for women. The effective retirement age for Russian men and women is higher than the normal retirement age in the country, but is lower than the average of most OECD countries. For the period 2010-2019, the age of exit from the labour market remained practically unchanged for men, while it slightly increased for women (by 0.7 years). The age of exit from the labour market is characterised by a fairly significant and stable regional differentiation. The determinants of the effective retirement age are the northern status of a region, the relative level of pensions in the region (the ratio of the average pension to the average wage), the share of employees with higher education. The research results can be used to develop measures to increase the older people employment. Changes in the age of exit from the labour market caused by the pension reform require a further study.
El desarrollo de la política de cultura de inteligencia en España: un caso de isomorfismo institucional
Authors: Cremades Guisado Álvaro , Bueno Alberto
Published: October 2022

Desde su creación en 2003, la política de cultura de inteligencia ha tenido como propósito la sensibilización social acerca de la labor y necesidad del Centro Nacional de Inteligencia (CNI). Esta política ha servido como marco de diferentes acciones dirigidas a favorecer una mayor interlocución del servicio de inteligencia español con la sociedad civil, con la política pública de fomento de la cultura de defensa como precedente más cercano e inmediato. El presente artículo traza las similitudes en el desarrollo de ambas políticas públicas, a partir de la consulta de fuentes primarias y secundarias de acceso público, y las analiza a través del concepto de isomorfismo institucional. Como conclusión principal, se señala que la política de cultura de inteligencia es producto de un proceso de emulación de las prácticas de instituciones que comparten un mismo campo organizacional, como las que entonces se desarrollaban en el ámbito de la defensa.

Abstract

Since its creation in 2003, the purpose of the intelligence culture policy has been to raise social awareness about the work and the need for the National Intelligence Centre (CNI). This policy has served as a framework for different actions aimed at promoting greater dialogue between the Spanish intelligence service and civil society, with the policy of promoting the culture of defense as the closest and immediate precedent. This article traces the similarities in the development of both public policies throughout the consultation of primary and secondary sources of public access and also analyzes them through the concept of institutional isomorphism. As the main conclusion, the political culture of intelligence is pointed out as a product of a process of emulation of the practices of institutions that share the same organizational field, as those that were already developed in the field of defense.
Apreciación de la cultura de inteligencia para apoyar estrategias de geoseguridad
Authors: Castillo Arias Jaime Oswaldo
Published: October 2022

En el presente artículo no solo se describe la cultura de inteligencia como la forma de proporcionar información adecuada para la toma de decisiones de un Estado, sino que se expone cómo debe ser considerada en los procesos para generar acciones que permitan mejorar las condiciones de seguridad. Con la finalidad de operacionalizar estos conceptos, se emplea el método descriptivo para evidenciar la importancia de la inteligencia en la conducción política y la formulación de estrategias que permitan disponer de un adecuado nivel de seguridad. Con esta visión, se pretende reflexionar sobre la necesidad de un alcance de seguridad global, pero sin dejar de lado la inteligencia vinculada al interés estatal. Como ejemplo, se considera el problema del narcotráfico en dos países de la región andina: Colombia y Perú. Se destaca la importancia de una cultura de inteligencia que considere conceptualmente la orientación política, pero que oriente su accionar a apoyar estrategias que generen un adecuado escenario de seguridad a escala estatal y global.

Abstract

This article not only describes the culture of intelligence as the way to provide adequate information for decision-making in a State but also analyzes how it should be considered in the processes to generate actions to improve security conditions. In order to operationalize these concepts, the descriptive method was used, to reflect on the importance of intelligence for political leadership and for the formulation of strategies that propitiate an adequate level of security. Within this vision, it is intended to reflect on the need for a global security scope, but without neglecting the intelligence associated with State interest. As an example of the aforementioned, the problem of drug trafficking in two countries of the Andean region, Colombia and Peru, is considered. The importance of an intelligence culture that conceptually considers political orientation but fundamentally guides its actions to support strategies that generate an adequate security scenario at the state and global level is highlighted.
