promotion de la traduction des langues vernaculaires en Inde passera-t-elle par le numérique ?
Authors: Diot Bénédicte
Published: December 2024

La politique linguistique de l’Inde, État plurilingue par excellence, se veut inclusive jusqu’aux langues les plus minoritaires avec une application multidirectionnelle de la traduction administrative protégée par la loi. En réalité cette politique est hiérarchisée. Elle met en avant l’hindi parmi les langues régionales et n’est pas appliquée pour de nombreuses minorités. Ceci transparaît dans les initiatives public/privé qui développent à grands pas depuis 2020 la localisation des technologies numériques pour les langues vernaculaires. La combinaison de traduction est le plus souvent de l’anglais vers les autres langues selon un ordre récurrent (hindi, puis les sept premières langues régionales, puis les autres langues répertoriées), indiquant la prééminence de l’anglais et la place symbolique des autres langues dans cette hiérarchie. Cette valorisation de la maîtrise des langues « du sommet » de la pyramide n’incite pas au développement de la traduction dans les langues minoritaires ou même entre « langues répertoriées » autres que l’hindi. De plus, la politique de traduction actuelle ne définit pas précisément les critères de sa mise en œuvre. Par ailleurs, depuis près de 10 ans, l’Inde a choisi de miser sur le développement de son économie par le numérique. Les internautes non anglophones constituent un marché gigantesque pour le secteur privé et un vivier de compétences pour peu qu’ils puissent accéder aux savoirs dispensés jusqu’ici en anglais. Ce développement vers les langues indiennes répond aussi à l’idéologie nationaliste prônée par le gouvernement en place. L’exemple de la diffusion de l’information lors de la pandémie du COVID-19 montre cependant que les langues des minorités les plus fragiles n’ont pas été prises en compte. Pourtant, les nouvelles technologies de l’information, en particulier l’IA, peuvent pourtant devenir des alliées dans la préservation et la traduction des langues minoritaires.
L'anglais, langue colonialiste : le défi que représente la traduction éthique, en littérature, du Rez English ou American Indian English
Authors: Major Mélissa
Published: December 2024

Une traduction éthique et décolonisée des littératures autochtones est sensible aux rapports de force entre Autochtones et Allochtones. Elle n’écarte ni les théoriciens de la littérature ni les outils de la traductologie euro-américains, mais s’intéresse surtout aux analyses des littératures autochtones issues des critiques et théoriciens autochtones, et fait particulièrement attention aux pièges de l’ethnocentrisme. Une telle traduction est aussi consciente que si la plupart des écrivains autochtones en Amérique du Nord parlent et écrivent en anglais, c’est entre autres à cause des nombreuses tentatives d’assimilation des États colonialistes. Néanmoins, un certain nombre de ces auteurs usent également, dans leurs œuvres, d’un Rez English. En effet, des membres des Premiers Peuples ont adapté l’anglais à leurs besoins et en sont venus à créer des dialectes nommés Rez Englishes. Pour illustrer la présence des Rez Englishes dans les littératures autochtones et pour montrer comment une traduction éthique et décolonisée peut les rendre, les traductions d’un extrait de House Made of Dawn, de l’écrivain N. Scott Momaday (Kiowa/Cherokee), seront analysées.

O sistema de financiamento público brasileiro: alterações institucionais nos fundos e bancos públicos
Authors: Sibin Brunno Henrique , Mendonca Ana Rosa Ribeiro de
Published: December 2024

O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir o sistema público de financiamento no Brasil em três movimentos da institucionalidade, gerados por alterações na política financeira do governo federal a partir da segunda metade da década de 2016. Defende-se que estes movimentos têm gerado mudanças relevantes no modo de funcionamento do sistema de direcionamento de crédito. O primeiro movimento refere-se aos grandes fundos públicos, fiscais e parafiscais, o Fundo de Amparo ao Trabalhador (FAT) e o Fundo de Garantia do Tempo de Serviço (FGTS). Observa-se a intensificação de um novo formato de institucionalidade pautado por uma lógica de funcionamento menos associada à estruturação de um funding de longo prazo e mais ligada a estímulos de curto prazo na demanda. No segundo, o Sistema Financeiro da Habitação (SFH) tem sido alvo de um importante processo de flexibilização de regras vigentes, o que tem gerado efeitos no próprio funcionamento do sistema. Por fim, o surgimento e a ampliação do uso de Fundos Garantidores, para Investimento e de Operações (FGI e FGO), que possibilitaram um novo formato de direcionamento, no qual se espera uma participação mais ativa do sistema bancário, não só público, mas também privado. Para tal, este artigo conta com quatro seções, além de introdução e considerações finais. As seções 2 e 3 apresentam a institucionalidade, original e alterações, assim como a trajetória recente do FGTS e FAT. A seção 4, por sua vez, trata do direcionamento de crédito e exigibilidades sobre depósitos. Por fim, o surgimento e ampliação do uso do FGI e FGO são discutidos na seção 5.

Authors: Barboza Ricardo de Menezes , Roitman Fábio Brener , Peixoto Sandro , Ambrózio Antônio Marcos Höelz Pinto
Published: December 2024

O BNDES é o principal banco de desenvolvimento do Brasil e, como tal, busca fazer operações que promovam benefícios para a sociedade. No entanto, mapear e mensurar benefícios sociais não é uma tarefa trivial. Este texto apresenta uma ferramenta desenvolvida pelo BNDES, passível de ser replicada/adaptada por qualquer banco público ou de desenvolvimento, com o propósito de mapear os impactos econômicos, sociais e ambientais de projetos de investimento, denominada ferramenta de scoring de impacto (SIm). Como o seu próprio nome sugere, essa ferramenta transforma os efeitos mapeados de um projeto em uma nota (ou escore) final, o que pode ser útil para a política pública por diversas razões, sobretudo porque ajuda a sinalizar destinos socialmente mais interessantes para recursos públicos escassos. O futuro dos bancos de desenvolvimento depende de iniciativas como essa, que colocam a medição de impactos para a sociedade no centro da rotina operacional dessas instituições.

O presente artigo visa analisar as contribuições das ações realizadas pela Secretaria de Educação do município de Santa Rita do Pardo – MS com foco na formação continuada em serviço e tendo como público-alvo diretores, coordenadores e professores da rede pública municipal. Constitui-se a partir dos resultados da Dissertação de Mestrado em Educação do Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação da FCT/UNESP de uma das autoras do presente artigo. Utilizou-se da abordagem qualitativa e, como instrumentos de coleta de dados, empregou-se a pesquisa bibliográfica a partir da seleção de trabalhos já desenvolvidos com a temática. Constatou-se que a formação continuada em serviço é um dispositivo importante que, de fato, contribui com a prática docente em sala de aula. Identificou-se na dissertação de mestrados algumas fragilidades nos programas de formação já ofertados pela Secretaria de Educação tais como: ausência de uma proposta formativa que considerasse o contexto de atuação e as necessidades das professoras em exercício, visto que um programa de formação continuada, para que provoque mudanças na prática docente, precisa ser pensado a partir da realidade vivenciada no cotidiano escolar, bem como ter formadores que realmente conheçam os desafios e as possibilidades de atuação docente na escola pública. Diante do que foi constatado, a Secretaria de Educação, juntamente com as suas técnicas, buscou formar os diretores e os coordenadores pedagógicos da rede pública municipal para serem os responsáveis pela formação dos professores, dando ênfase à formação em serviço.

Published: December 2024

On a global scale, technological developments have affected the field of educational technology, while at the same time economic instability and pandemic crises have reshaped the science of accounting. These events have created a new context in higher education adopting more modern teaching approaches such as blended learning, while the integration of artificial intelligence has increased. It is observed in several university institutions in the accounting courses an intense effort of the professors to improve the performance of their students, through a more experiential educational experience. It is a fact that, as long as blended teaching practices are adopted, student-centeredness is promoted, giving students the opportunity to deeply understand the concepts and application of accounting. The contribution of the present study lies in this entire spectrum and comes to illuminate precisely these challenges that arise from the stormy and rapid technological flow in the field of education. The research is a case study with a quantitative methodology, focusing on the performance of first-year accounting students, through a comparison of the control group and the experimental class in the light of the implementation of a blended environment. The findings of the research showed that while there was no significant statistical difference in student performance between the two classes, however, there was a much more improved picture in the blended class in terms of achieving scores with a 10 "excellent" designation. Today's highly digital literate students need to engage with technology-based educational practices that help them both gain deeper understanding and achieve higher grades.

Predicting health insurance premiums using machine learning: A novel regression-based model for enhanced accuracy and personalization
Authors: Lakshmi Narasimhan Srinivasagopalan
Published: December 2024

Machine learning (ML) is reshaping healthcare insurance by streamlining the prediction of health insurance premiums, allowing insurers to offer more personalized and efficient services to consumers. This paper presents a novel regression-based model designed to accurately forecast health insurance costs based on individual characteristics, bridging the gap between insurers and policyholders. Leveraging an artificial neural network (ANN), the model considers key factors, including age, gender, body mass index, number of dependents, smoking status, and geographic location, to predict premium costs with greater precision. Our approach demonstrates an advancement over traditional methods, achieving a prediction accuracy of 92.72% in experimental trials. This high performance underscores the model’s capability to provide tailored premium estimations, thus enhancing customer satisfaction by offering fair and data-driven pricing. This research further evaluates the model’s efficacy through key performance metrics, confirming its robustness and practical applicability for insurers aiming to adopt ML for personalized healthcare coverage. The proposed model contributes to the field of digital health insurance, offering a scalable and data-rich approach to premium estimation that benefits both insurers and consumers in today’s tech-driven healthcare landscape.

Ficus dicranostyla Mildbr. is a plant of the Moraceae family widely used in Cameroonian ethnomedicine for the treatment of several pathologies, including hepatitis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the hepatoprotective activity of the aqueous extract of F. dicranostyla leaves (AEFD) on paracetamol-induced hepatitis in rats. Thirty male rats were divided into 6 groups of 5 animals each, including 3 control groups (normal, negative and positive) and 3 test groups. These animals received distilled water (normal and negative controls), silymarin (positive control) and the extract at doses of 75, 150 and 300 mg/kg (test groups) daily for 5 days. Hepatotoxicity was induced on day 5 by single-dose per os administration of paracetamol (2000 mg/kg) to all groups except the normal control group. Hematological and biochemical parameters such as transaminases, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubins, total proteins, lipid profile and oxidative stress were evaluated. AEFD, particularly at doses of 150 and 300 mg/kg, significantly reduced total white blood cell counts, serum transaminases, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubins, total cholesterol, low density lipoproteins-cholesterol and triglycerides compared with the negative control. The extract also significantly increased levels of red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, total protein and high density lipoproteins-cholesterol compared with the negative control. In the extract-treated groups, hepatic malondialdehyde levels were significantly reduced, while reduced glutathione, catalase and superoxide dismutase levels were significantly increased compared with the negative control. AEFD has hepatoprotective effects resulting from its ability to strengthen antioxidant status and prevent alterations in lipoprotein and cholesterol metabolism.

Published: December 2024

Asphyxia refers to the failure of a baby to initiate or maintain spontaneous breathing at birth, often necessitating resuscitation to prevent morbidity and mortality. The availability of facilities and the role of health workers significantly influence the provision of adequate interventions for asphyxia cases. This study employs a descriptive observational design using a cross-sectional survey approach. Sampling was conducted comprehensively, and primary data were collected through questionnaires. The results indicate that the age of midiwives private practice in the Mojosari Community Health Center, Mojokerto, ranges from 40 till 76 years. The midwives have attended training programs such as APN, PPGDON, Resuscitation, MU, and PONED; however, none possess the latest midwifery professional education. Their experience spans from 16 to 55 years, and they handle an average of 1–2 newborns each month. While the midwives demonstrate adequate knowledge of resuscitation, they lack practical experience due to the absence of asphyxiated cases in the past year. Additionally, none have access to complete resuscitation equipment.This study highlights the need for neonatal resuscitation training to enhance the knowledge and skills of midwives. Efforts to equip midiwives private practice with adequate facilities are crucial for improving neonatal outcomes, ensuring safer childbirth for mothers and infants.
Management of restrictive and obstructive lung disease in intensive care unit: a review
Authors: Listiarini Dian Ayu , Jufan Akhmad Yun , Wisudarti Calcarina Fitriani Retno
Published: December 2024

Lung disease is broadly divided into obstructive lung disease (OLD) and restrictive lung disease (RLD). The latter is a disorder of the parenchyma, pleura, thorax, or neuromuscular walls of the lungs, characterized by decreased total lung capacity due to reduced lung distensibility. Meanwhile, OLD causes increased resistance to flow due to the blockage of part or all of the respiratory tract from the trachea to the terminal bronchioles. These two diseases' initial symptoms and signs are common, such as shortness of breath, coughing, cyanosis, respiratory muscle retractions, snoring, and fever. Early detection is needed to recognize differences in symptoms and signs, establish a diagnosis, and carry out appropriate treatment. It is essential to differentiate between RLD and OLD because they have different therapeutic management. This review aims to discuss the management of restrictive and obstructive lung disease in intensive care unit It is drawn upon various sources, including case reports, literature reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses, to provide an overview of the difference between RLD and OLD to help clinicians differentiate between RLD and OLD and provide appropriate therapeutic management. Although RLD and OLD have similar signs and symptoms, they have different pathologic processes. The leading cause of RLD is a pathological condition that causes a decrease in lung compliance. Meanwhile, the primary pathological process of OLD is an increase in airway resistance, which causes typical obstructive symptoms. Addressing this area of interest can help clinicians to provide appropriate management of both pharmacotherapy and mechanical ventilation and monitoring of respiratory mechanisms

Published: December 2024

Artikkelissa tutkitaan, miten suomalaislasten kokemukset taloudellisesta stressistä liittyvät subjektiiviseen hyvinvointiin koronapandemian toisena vuotena. Taloudellinen stressi ymmärretään moniulotteisena huolena, joka vaikuttaa lapsiin niin vanhempien kuin laajemman yhteiskunnallisen talouskeskustelun kautta. Subjektiivista hyvinvointia käsitellään kahden eri ulottuvuuden näkökulmasta. Kognitiivinen hyvinvointi kuvaa lasten tyytyväisyyttä elämäänsä kokonaisuutena, kun taas psykologinen hyvinvointi keskittyy lyhyen aikavälin koettuun hyvinvointiin. Käytämme Pelastakaa Lapset ry:n keväällä 2021 keräämää kyselyaineistoa. Tulokset osoittavat, että koettu taloudellinen stressi on negatiivisesti yhteydessä sekä kognitiiviseen hyvinvointiin että psykologiseen hyvinvointiin, myös huomioitaessa sosioekonomiset ja muut aiempaan tutkimukseen perustuvat subjektiiviseen hyvinvointiin vaikuttavat tekijät. Kuitenkin vielä negatiivisempi vaikutus oli koulussa koetulla turvattomuuden tunteella. Tytöillä ja yli 16-vuotiailla oli suurempi riski heikolle subjektiiviselle hyvinvoinnille.

Authors: Dermawan Andre , Tommy Tommy , Handoko Divi
Published: December 2024

The main objective of this research is to improve the quality of digital images without losing important details, such as object edges, while also developing efficient and user- friendly software for image processing. Bilateral filtering is a non-linear filtering method used to reduce noise in images while preserving edge details. This filter works by combining smoothing based on spatial proximity and pixel intensity similarity. Thus, bilateral filtering is effective in reducing noise without blurring the important edges of the image. This research develops an application that can open, process, and save digital images, allowing users to practically reduce noise in images. The results show that bilateral filtering can significantly enhance digital image quality with substantial noise reduction, although certain types of noise may require further parameter adjustments for optimal results.

The aim of the work is to develop a broadband beam forming device based on a systems approach. The layout of the 4x4 Butler matrix presented in the work allows minimizing the overall dimensions of the beam forming device. The method used in the work allows you to bypass problems with interference at the nodes of line intersections from opposite sides of the board, thereby eliminating unnecessary capacity coupling. The crossover formed from two sequentially installed directional couplers ensures the absence of a signal at the output, which comes from a galvanic coupled input due to the out-of-phase division. The main electrodynamic characteristics of both the component parts of the beam forming device, such as the directional coupler and crossover, and the entire device as a whole are estimated. The entire design of the Butler matrix is assembled on a dielectric substrate made of domestic material FAF-4D with a relative permittivity of 2.5 and a thickness of 0.3 mm, which is located between two dielectric layers 1.5 mm thick.

Published: December 2024

PT INKA (PERSERO) Madiun is a manufacturing company engaged in the railway sector. In order to improve the quality of its products, PT INKA continues to innovate and improve aspects of equipment and quality. This also increases the need for electrical systems in railway transportation. Maintaining power quality is an important consideration as poor power quality can cause operational disruptions, equipment damage, and significant additional costs for electricity users. One of the most common power quality problems is harmonic distortion. Harmonics are phenomena caused by nonlinear electrical loads that act as a source of waveforms at high frequencies that are multiples of the fundamental frequency. Meanwhile, one of PT INKA's products on the SDP of the Argo Dwipangga executive type passenger train is known to have a THD current value above the IEEE 519 standard in 2014. The current values of the R, S, and T phases are 22.19% and 23.16% respectively. and 21.89%. Therefore, the authors conducted research to develop a filter that can be used to reduce harmonic distortion. Based on the results of ETAP software simulations after the application of 5th-order single-tuned passive filters, there are filter design specifications with a capacitor value of 286.9 µF, an inductor of 0.001414013 H, and a resistor value of 0.014 ohms. THD current values are reduced by 8.33%, 9,31%, and 7.15% for the R, S, and T phases.

Current Status and Forecast of European Private Equity Fund
Authors:   Asia-Europe Perspective Association, Shin Jungsoon

This study examined the current status and prospects of the private equity market in Europe. A major players in a private equity fund is a fund investor who can act as a limited liability partner(Limited Partner, LP) and actively manage the operation of the fund and be a partner with unlimited liability(General Partner, GP). There may be agent problem and information asymmetry issues between the parties.A limited partnership agreement (LPA)plays a role to mitigate these issues.
First of all, Bascher and Walz (2001) argue that management of portfolio companies is more incentive than IPO exit strategy rather than M & A negotiation. In other words, they saw that in the case of IPO, the ownership structure of a company is generally converted from one major shareholder to a majority shareholder. This not only increases management’s influence, but also often leads to stock options for IPOs (Cumming and MacIntosh, 2003a). On the other hand, in the case of M & A, you may not be able to keep your job after you have a deal. This is because the company may be vertically or horizontally integrated (Neus & Walz, 2005).One of the important issues with asymmetric information is that information imbalances between strategic investors can be significant. It is generally known that the gap of knowledge is very large in case of M & A than IPO. To mitigate these serious problems, the fund needs to inform potential investors about the company as well as information about the situation to the market.
Unlike general funds, private equity funds are very short-term investments, so exit strategies are very important. Exit strategy options include write-down, buyback, recapitalization, M & A, and IPO, but focus mainly on representative M & A and IPO. Among the M & A methods, private equity funds typically use trade sales. This means the sale of shares to the other private equity fund orother companies with similar businesses. When they are sold to other companies, they are generally aimed at increasing their value through vertical or horizontal integration. IPOs have the advantage of having a high return on investment despite the disadvantages of long payback periods and procedural difficulties compared to M & A. The private equity market was hit hard by the financial crisis in 2007/2008, but it has recovered to some extent since then. European PE funds have been shifting to investments in the SME market, so transactions have increased. However, the economic environment is rapidly changing. The huge amount of cash held by low interest rates can be challenged by intense competition with financial companies seeking high returns. In particular, unlike the US market, which is rapidly shifting to a market that is seeking high yield, the European market is expected to remain relatively slow but solid
Trump’s ‘America First’ Trade Policy and the EU’s Two-fold Responses
Authors:   Asia-Europe Perspective Association, Yoon Sungwook

The purpose of this research is to investigate the EU’s responses to Trump’s America first trade policy and to provide its implications. Since the Trump administration determined to impose 25% and 10% of additional tariffs on steel and aluminum products respectively based on threats of national security from imported products, the US tried to have bilateral negotiations with each country. Several countries such as the EU, Canada and Mexico initially announced their strong responses, but most of them chose the negotiations with the US as the way of the resolution. The EU, however, decided to adopt rebalancing measures in reaction to the US steel and aluminium tariffs, which imposed additional tariffs on imported products from the US. Under the situation that trade disputes between the EU and the US could be intensified after Trump’s threat of imposing additional tariffs on imported cars from the EU, both sides reached a deal on July 2018 to work towards ‘zero tariffs, non-tariff barriers and subsidies on non-auto industrial goods including the reform of the WTO’.
The EU’s responses against the US protectionism have two-fold characteristics of hard and moderate policies. The EU as a representative of 28 member states of the EU which has competence in the trade policy as well as its trade volume beyond that of the US has its capability to respond strongly to the US policy. The EU triggered the first phase of retaliation against Trump’s steel and aluminum tariffs in line with WTO rules according to the EU’s principle of trade policy on the basis of the multilateral trade system under the WTO. Along with this hard policy, the EU has tried to negotiate with the US in order to avoid deepening trade war with the US. This is mainly because both sides recognise the importance of their economic and political relations and the risk of damages from trade war between them.
Although the US and the EU started the negotiations, it does not seem to be easy to reach an agreement between them. Regardless of the result of the negotiations between the EU and the US, it is clear that the global trading system could be restructured, and the transformation of global supply chain is inevitable due to the trade war between China and the US as well as the result of negotiation between the EU and US. It is time for the Korean government to establish policy reponses from the mid and long term perspective.
Multilingual Language Acquisition in Arabic-English Speaking Families: The Role of Parent Sex and Parent
Authors: Ghali Samantha , Colombo John
Published: December 2024

Introduction. The robust linguistic and clinical research literature focusing on English language acquisition is generally based on a model that presumes that the oral language a child acquires at home without formal instruction is the same language that is used for reading and writing. Arabic presents a qualitatively different scenario, in that children learning Arabic must acquire at least two different language systems: (1) a dialectal form that is largely used for informal interactions and which is not formally codified, and (2) a standard form, which is typically used in formal contexts and is almost exclusively reserved for reading and writing. Multilingual Arabic speakers are among the fastest growing language communities in the United States (US), yet very little is known about language development in Arabic-English speaking children, leading to critical knowledge gaps in language acquisition theory, assessment, and intervention. This project was designed to provide an initial overview of the Arabic-English language learning environment by addressing the following research questions: RQ 1: Do demographic characteristics such as parent sex and parent education influence caregiver reported parent-child use of language outside of the home in the standard form and spoken/home language form?RQ 2: Do demographic characteristics such as parent sex and parent education influence caregiver reported child grammatical outcomes, such as verb use, tense, and agreement? Method. A community-based participatory approach was utilized for participant recruitment. The author partnered with community stakeholders to recruit a pilot sample of 42 families to the study. This study received institutional review board approval and followed all ethical guidelines. Questionnaires assessing caregiver ratings of their children’s language skills and the language richness of the home environment was administered in person within participants’ homes or in locations selected by participants (e.g., community centers). Families who consented were audio recorded for fidelity.
Przedawnienie roszczeń w dyrektywie 2023/970 a ochrona prawa pracownika do równego wynagrodzenia
Authors: Kurosz Krzysztof , Kurzynoga Małgorzata
Published: December 2024

W artykule zaprezentowano stanowisko, że regulacja dotycząca przedawnienia roszczeń stanowi istotny element skuteczności ochrony prawa pracownika do równego wynagrodzenia. Zagadnienie to należy widzieć w szerszym kontekście dążenia prawodawcy europejskiego do poprawy skuteczności regulacji związanych z zasadą równego traktowania w zakresie wynagrodzenia i likwidacji luki płacowej. Dyrektywa 2023/970 kładzie nacisk na prawo do informacji. Logicznym rozwinięciem tego założenia jest uzależnienie początku biegu przedawnienia roszczeń od świadomości pracownika o naruszeniu albo stanu uzasadnionego oczekiwania, że będzie świadomy naruszenia. Art. 21 dyrektywy 2023/970 stanowi m.in., że bieg terminów przedawnienia nie może rozpocząć się, zanim powód nie będzie świadomy lub zanim można w uzasadniony sposób oczekiwać, że będzie świadomy naruszenia. Przepis ten stanowi rozwinięcie dotychczasowego orzecznictwa TSUE. Autorzy stawiają tezę, że mimo przyjmowania w orzecznictwie Sądu Najwyższego bardzo zbliżonej reguły potrzebna jest implementacja art. 21 ust. 1 zd. 2 dyrektywy 2023/970 expressis verbis do prawa polskiego. Związane jest to z wątpliwościami natury konstrukcyjnej na temat reżimu odpowiedzialności z tytułu naruszenia zasady równego traktowania w stosunkach pracy. Autorzy przyjmują jej kontraktowy charakter, który jednak nie sprzeciwia się przyjęciu subiektywnego wzorca wymagalności roszczeń, charakterystycznego dla odmiennego reżimu odpowiedzialności deliktowej. Przemawiają za tym względyochronne wobec pracownika. W artykule postawiono również tezę, że problemy intertemporalne związane z ewentualnym fakultatywnym rozszerzeniem ochrony (brak rozpoczęcia biegu przedawnienia roszczeń w czasie trwania stosunku pracy) mogą być rozwiązywanie poprzez odpowiednie zastosowanie ustawy z 23 kwietnia 1964 r. – przepisy wprowadzające Kodeks cywilny.

Korpus służby cywilnej tworzą osoby zatrudnione na stanowiskach urzędniczych w urzędach administracji rządowej. Jest to zatem grupa zawodowa pozostająca w bardzo ścisłym związku z państwem, które na mocy art. 20 konstytucji powinno urzeczywistniać m.in.: solidarność, dialog i współpracę partnerów społecznych. W niniejszym artykule przeanalizowano, na ile zadanie to jest realizowane właśnie w stosunku do służby cywilnej, czyli w płaszczyźnie, na której rola państwa nie ogranicza się wyłącznie do bycia prawodawcą, ale występuje ono także w charakterze pracodawcy rzeczywistego
