Authors:   Academy of Economic Studies of Moldova, Chirvas Cristina
Published: December 2022

The impact of the diaspora on the development of the state of origin is a topic that appeared relatively recently in the areas of interest and on the public agendas of the states. Currently, throughout the world, the diaspora represents an active force, involved in almost all areas of activity of a society, which tends to develop and maintain multilateral ties with political, social and cultural institutions in the country of origin or destination. Since the 1990s, more and more states have launched various initiatives at the governmental level in order to attract the development potential of the diaspora. However, often factors such as the availability of institutional means, available time, the needs, desires and capacities of diaspora members to engage in such activities, reduce the panoply of viable options regarding the state's implementation of diaspora-related development objectives. The given article aims to summarize the ways of interaction of the states of origin with the diasporas, to identify the opportunities and challenges of the various policies implemented in the field of the diaspora and to structure examples of good practices applied at the international and national level.

The unexpected COVID-19 outbreak has threatened the world and derailed the socioeconomic lives of people. In this context, this study is aimed to discuss the implications of COVID19 in textiles sector in India along with major issues and challenges on demand and supply sides. This study determines the impact of crisis which affected demand and supply in textiles and fashion industry. COVID-19 has several implications for this industry, be it from demand or production. Its presence is observed in different aspects of the industry. This study uses secondary data collected from various sources like studies published in peer-reviewed journals. This study focuses on the need to think differently to deal with this unexpected crisis. Relaxation of tax compliance rules and deadlines, especially for small-scale segments is one of the potential solutions, so that the conditions of customer demand are not affected directly. In addition, more comprehensive financial relief package could be announced for textiles sector, considering the export- and labor-intensive processes to stem the adverse effects of pandemic. Rebates on exporters could be the next major step against the remission of taxes or duties on exports. This study was conducted during the COVID-19 crisis. More studies would be needed in post COVID era to generalize the findings. The combative measures and actual impact may be evolutionary and dynamic. The analysis focuses on the “out of the box” thinking to deal with unexpected crisis, but it may have different aspects to be discussed as the crisis unfolds. There is a lack of significant research on the impact of COVID-19 on textile industry in India. This study could be the stepping stone for researchers to study the impact on textiles sector and help policymakers to prepare for unexpected crises in future.

Published: December 2022

The article discusses changes in the foreign economic policy of the Republic of Korea in connection with the deterioration of international trade at the beginning of the XXI century. The direct motive for changing the foreign economic policy of the Republic of Korea is the decline in the role of the WTO as a multilateral trading partner. On the other hand, FTA, based on economic cooperation between the two countries, is becoming a new model for economic development and cooperation in the XXI century. Bilateral negotiations are more likely to end than multilateral ones, because they are actively conducted in accordance with the interests of two countries. Therefore, free trade agreements (FTAs) are becoming the main direction of the economic policy of the Korea’s government to adapt foreign economic policy and overcome the negative trend of global economic development. An FTA has various economic effects, such as the development of trade between two countries, improving the efficiency of resource allocation, reviving investment between two countries and stimulating economic growth. In accordance with this situation, the Republic of Korea justifies the relevance of trade and economic cooperation between two countries through the conclusion of an FTA as a means of implementing an active foreign economic policy. The Republic of Korea has become an opportunity to introduce an advanced economic structure through the signing of free trade agreements with advanced countries. On the other hand, it served as an opportunity to strengthen economic cooperation through the signing of free trade agreements with developing countries. For this reason, the experience of the foreign economic policy of the Republic of Korea can serve as a good example for the economic development of developing countries.

Published: December 2022

Onion (Allium cepa L.) is a bulbous vegetable crop and cultivated in many parts of the world. Onion is majorly used in our daily diet for its nutritional value. In onions, sulfur-containing compounds and allinase enzymes are responsible for their lachrymatory effect and pungency. Flavanoid compounds in onions like kampeferol and quercitin show anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Globally, India stands second in onion production, book keeping for 10 % of total production from 16 % of total area. As per FAO data (2012), China leads the world in production (20.5 million tonnes), followed by India (13.3 million tonnes). Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Bihar, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Haryana, West Bengal, Gujarat, and Uttar Pradesh are the top onion-producing states in the country, contributing nearly 90% of the country’s overall onion production. Maharashtra stands first in production with 8,854.09 thousand tonnes with 38.09 percent share, followed by Madhya Pradesh (15.92 percent share) and Karnataka (12.85 percent share) (https://agriexchange.apeda.gov.in). Onion is a nutrient-sensitive crop and the nutrient requirement varies with cultivar, location, and season. Fertilizer recommendation for onion crop is 100-150 kg N, 40-80 kg P2 O5, and 0-125 kg K2 O per hectare (Source: NHB). Many studies have reported that 2.1 kg N, 0.75 kg P2 O5 , 2.2 K2 O, and 0.28 kg S per hectare of nutrients are removed by onion crop to produce a bulb yield of 1 ton (DOGR, 2015). Use of synthetic fertilizers alone causes leaching, increases toxicity, and degrades the soil environment. A Study by Kwaghe et al. (2017) have shown that nutrient uptake by the onion crop enhanced to 0.76, 43.82, and 2.42 kg/ha by the combination of both organic and inorganic fertilizers, thereby increasing the crop yield. Therefore, a rising need exists to provide an adequate and balanced nutrient application for attaining good crop yield and quality without affecting soil fertility status. This INM based approach for nutrient management has a positive impact on plant growth, agricultural sustainability, and fertility of soil. Hence to enhance soil fertility and to improve the nutrient uptake, the concept of Integrated Nutrient Management (INM) could be adopted.

Published: December 2022

Taxus baccata is categorized as a highly medicinal but endangered species, due to production of several economically important metabolites. Taxus baccata, a high altitude medicinal plants attract attention recently because its bark and leaves contain an alkaloid, which is the primary origin of Taxol, a vigorous anti-cancer drug. The formation of adventitious roots during air layering can be induced by various root promoting treatments and hormones which increase the root length and shoot development. Two plant growth hormones Indole-3-Butyric Acid and Napthelic Acetic Acid (IBA and NAA) with different concentration have been used for air layering on Taxus baccata. Each treatment was applied to 20 layers in replicates of 4. All the layers were carried out under uniform cultural practice during the entire period of examination. The experiments were conducted at village Ravigram, Joshimath, Chamoli (Uttarakhand) India. The stem layers pre-treatment with IBA 1000 ppm was observed most suitable condition for plant multiplication and regeneration in comparison to NAA. Effect of layering time and different concentration of growth regulators shows variation in formation of roots and callus. So 80.833% survivability was achieved with 1000 ppm of IBA and all other best results were obtained with this concentration followed by 750 ppm NAA.

The study was conducted at Chandigarh during winter and summer seasons to identify existing bee flora and to determine honey flow and dearth period. Visual observations were done to know the presence of honey bees and their foraging activities on different plants. Plants were reported as bee foraging species when at least 50% honey bee frequency was observed on them. Results concluded that winter season has 21 plant taxa of 11 families and summer has 50 plant taxa of 28 families. The identified flora was further grouped into nectar, pollen and both nectar and pollen sources. Results also revealed that winter has 7 and summer has 16 bee forage plants which provide both pollen and nectar in good quantity to honey bees. Late summer and raining seasons were identified as critical dearth period. Based on the availability of flora and their utility status the bee floral calendar was developed for Chandigarh. The result indicated that some parts of Chandigarh has rich bee flora in these seasons. By multiplying those highly preferred bee forage plants equally in all parts of different sub- divisions of Chandigarh, commercial bee keeping could be increased in future for economic purposes.

İkincisi, bu oyun kitabı ile bütünleşik çalışan bir artırılmış gerçeklik uygulamasıdır. Üçüncüsü ise öğrenme sürecinin okul-dışı ortamlarda da sürdürülebilmesi için bir Web-tabanlı veli katılım sistemidir. Bir durum çalışması kapsamında nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Teknolojik bileşenler ve etkileşimler görüşme yoluyla belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin objeleri kaydırma, çekme, yapıştırma gibi işlemlere yatkın oldukları, fakat eşleştirme, birleştirme ve duyduklarına eşlik etmede zorluk yaşadıkları gözlemlenmiştir. Bu çalışma, “herkese uyan” tek tipte bir yaklaşımın otizmli öğrenciler için uygun olmadığının altını çizmektedir. Uygulamalarda bireyselleştirilmiş destek önerilmektedir. Bulguların ilgili uygulama tasarımlarına ve diğer çalışmalara fikir vermesi umulmaktadır.

Natural language processing and machine learning are used to define and extract human emotions from unstructured text using a technique called sentiment analysis. Many organizations and companies today want to use this to recognize and act accordingly on the customer or user's features. This increases the importance and effectiveness of emotion analysis and the diversity of algorithms used day by day. One of these algorithms is the Extreme Learning machine. The Extreme Learning machine (ELM) algorithm is an important machine learning algorithm for emotion analysis and classification. In this study, the method used in the ELM's emotional analysis is systematic research that shows that the context and its applications have been studied. A systematic review of the works published between 2020 and 2022 was carried out using Web of Science and Google Scholar databases. After the first and in-depth screening of the literature, 10 of the 28 articles were selected from the review process. The articles have been reviewed based on the purpose of the study and research questions. According to the research results, different methods were used in the emotional analysis, mostly with the ELM, and ELM’s performance was improved. Quality analysis of treatment summaries is used in different areas, such as health care, education, and website product assessments. ELM's use of emotion analysis has resulted in most social media data as a scope, especially the Twitter platform.

The performance of infertile couples was maintained, their quality of life improved, and medical costs were decreased as a result of improving their lifestyle.To accomplish the initially stated goals, the present study used a cross-sectional descriptive approach. From December 1st, 2021, through May 14th, 2022, the study was in progress. In an infertility clinic in Al-Najaf City, Iraq, the study is being done. 200 women and men who visited infertility clinics at Al-Najaf Al-Ashraf Health Directorate were included in this non-probability (Purposive sample) sample. The process of gathering data involves developing a questionnaire utilizing an interviewing technique with both men and women, using the Arabic questionnaire version, and it is divided into three sections: Socio-demographic data and reproductive characteristics and standard Health_ Promoting Lifestyle questionnaires. The findings indicated that participants don't always engage in healthy behaviors to the required extent. These behaviors significantly contribute to improving life quality, preserving health, and fostering fertility. It is imperative to offer techniques, especially those that are consistent with predictors of health promoting activities, in order to enhance the health condition of infertile couples.
GREEK EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM AND THE FORMATION OF NATIONAL IDENTITY: A TWO-STEP CLUSTER ANALYSIS MODEL ON A TEACHERS’ SAMPLE
Authors: PAPAOİKONOMOU Anthony
Published: December 2022

Greek education system’s development moved around the conflict between the use of a purist and a colloquial Greek. Specifically, Greece's approach differed from that pursued by other European countries, which followed a shift towards the spoken language, by fulfilling the demand for an education for all based on the national language. Such a scenario, however, has de facto been immobilizing the Greek educational policy, by making it less competitive and appealing internationally. This study tries to capture classical education teachers' view on ancient Greek as a subject in secondary education and its consequences for the country's educational system via a survey, completed by 424 teachers, conducted in 2020.

Published: December 2022

Este estudo objetivou analisar se as informações ambientais divulgadas de forma voluntária, com base na Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), pelas três maiores empresas do setor de mineração do mundo (BHP, VALE e Rio Tinto) no ano de 2019 atendem as diretrizes impostas compulsoriamente pela Lei Grenelle II da França. Para tanto, realizou-se uma comparação entre os 32 indicadores da dimensão ambiental da GRI com os indicadores ambientas da Lei francesa Grenelle II. Assim sendo, a pesquisa é classificada como qualitativa, documental e descritiva. Os resultados mostraram que os tópicos impostos pela Lei Grenelle II não foram totalmente contemplados pela GRI nos relatórios das empresas, quando a BHP, Rio Tinto e Vale evidenciaram 10, 8 e 6 dos 12 tópicos presentes na Lei, respectivamente. O tópico mais citado foi “Programas de treinamento de funcionários em proteção ambiental”, com mais de 25% total de todas as citações e em contrapartida, “Provisões financeiras para riscos ambientais” não foi mencionado por nenhuma das empresas. O formato voluntário não permite comparação entre organizações e flexibiliza o que seria obrigatório pela Lei Grenelle II.

During earthquakes, the shear strength and bearing capacity of saturated sandy soils decreases; this is related to an increase in pore pressure. In the ultimate state, the pore pressure becomes equal to the initial effective stress, at which time the material loses all its resistance and liquefaction occurs. Thus, the prediction of the post-liquefaction settlement of the soil is an important step to reduce the seismic risk. Several methods have been developed for the prediction of Seismic-Induced Settlement, the most widely used is that based on the results of in-situ tests SPT, and Several soil reinforcement techniques can be considered, the choice depends mainly on the grain size of the soil to be treated. This article presents a comparative study of the methods for evaluating Seismic-Induced Settlement based on the experimental results of the in situ SPT tests, applied to an earthquake-prone area in northern Morocco which had specific soil formations characterized by the existence of layers of sand over several meters, which suggests the possibility of soil liquefaction and proposes a method of reducing the risk of liquefaction. The analysis of existing SPT data leads to interesting conclusions both in terms of the comparative analysis of methods for the prediction of the post-liquefaction settlement and the understanding of the effect of Soil treatments by Stone Columns to mitigate the risk of liquefaction.

Conventional stormwater management may cause long term environmental issues. Fortunately, Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) can manage stormwater more sustainably. However, the design examples of WSUD elements, such as rain gardens within the geographical and cultural context of Thailand are lacking. This study investigated the patterns of rain garden design suitable for urban areas in Chiang Mai and developed examples of rain garden design processes and prototypes in an urban context for Chiang Mai. 

This research used the Research by design Method (RDM), which has great potential in bridging the gap between research and application. The researchers selected the site at the Faculty of Agriculture, Chiang Mai University. They designed 2 schematics of rain gardens with local Lanna plants. Then, they compared stormwater capacity with the existing site via the Natural Resources and Conservation Service (NRCS) Curve Number Method. The design results were evaluated by stakeholders and design experts to bridge the gaps between international standards and local contexts.  

We found that 1) the west side of the site was most appropriate to develop the pilot project. 2) Both design schematics performed better than the original site. 3) Stakeholders and design experts see the potential of the site, but had concerns regarding its actual performance, maintenance, scale, and safety. This paper offers and provides an example of the rain garden design process which can be used as a baseline for future designs of rain garden and water sensitive urban designs.
