Published: May 2022

The article examines the collections of the Library and Archives of Canada, which cover the materials of the historical and documentary heritage of the country. The experience of the Library and Archives of Canada in structuring and organizing information resources on Ukrainian studies and search capabilities of the electronic catalog was analyzed. It was found that organized information arrays of thematic orientation form the source base for research in various disciplines, including Ukrainian studies. Collections and databases containing information resources on Ukrainian culture and history, including unique archival documents on the history of Ukrainian immigration to Canada, are considered. It is noted that providing access to databases of different thematic orientation allows the user to limit the search to a particular industry. It is emphasized that the Library and Archives of Canada play an important role in preserving Ukraine's historical and cultural heritage and disseminating knowledge about Ukraine. It was found that the provision of a set of navigation and search tools to ensure access to historical and cultural heritage and scientific heritage, the use of special thematic collections and databases in research and teaching and presenting them on the library website increases the role of the library and significantly increases efficiency of scientists' work. It is emphasized that it is expedient and useful for scientific libraries to study the experience of libraries in the world in structuring and organizing information resources on national issues.
The United Nations’ Involvement in Conflict Resolutions in Africa: The Rwanda Experience (1994 – 2003)
Authors: Vincent Elemanya A.
Published: May 2022

The study aims at interrogating the Rwanda conflict (1993 – 2004) with a view to ascertaining the extent of the United Nation’s involvement in the conflict and the roles played by the warring parties; Tutsi and Hutu ethnic nationalities in escalating the crisis. The study adopted the qualitative research method by gathering information from different sources that are relevant to the content. The ideology of ethnic division and hatred between Hutu and Tutsi ethnic nationalities was heightened by colonial administrative policies which favoured one group against the other by introducing an asymmetric poorer structure and class division among the people. Tutsi unequal social structure that placed Tutsi at the helm of affairs became a flash point and the main source of the ethnic violence that later plunged Rwanda into genocide in 1994 where over 800,000 lives were lost. The main objectives of this work therefore is to ascertain the political implications of the United National involvement in the Rwanda crisis of 1994 – 2003. The frustration-aggression theory was used as the theoretical framework of analysis. The work revealed that Rwanda genocide would have been averted if the United Nation had taken stringent and urgent measures. This was as a result of lack of political will by the Secretarial and the Security Council of the U.N.O. to make bold decisions and develop necessary mechanisms to create information and preventive measures.

The Main Character – The Woman in Nawal al-Sa'dawi's Imagination: A Well-Deserved Interactive Emotional Movement
Authors: Bishara Dr. Hanan
Published: May 2022

Dictionaries unanimously agree that the term "character" refers to the traits that distinguish a certain person from another. Each trait of the character of the individual should take into consideration his general external appearance and the nature of his abilities, decisions, motives, reactions, expertise, and the total values and attitudes that direct his behavior. The literary character is one of the imaginary or real individuals with whom the events of the novel or play deal. A number of values and traits are attributed to it, which can be discovered through the dialogue, the verbs and the description that the reader reads or hears. Like every human or non-human being that appeared in literature, whether individually or collectively, the character has a specific function in the story. Besides, it has physical, moral, and rational traits, which vary from one character to the other according to the function that is attributed to it, whether major or minor, and according to the literary genre in which it plays a certain role. In short, the character can be defined as the total traits that constitute the nature of the human being.

Authors: Hota Dr. Parthasarathi , Baghel Dr. Kanhaiya N , Shammi Dr. Vishal
Published: May 2022

Accessory breast tissue is an uncommon condition which occurs in 0.4–6% of women. It is mostly located in the axilla where it can cause diagnostic difficulty, especially if it is unilateral and large. Usually it is bilateral and presents as an asymptomatic mass during pregnancy or lactation. The diagnosis of ectopic breast tissue is important as it can undergo the same pathological changes that occur in a normal breast, such as mastitis, fibrocystic disease and carcinoma. We present a case of unilateral accessory breast without nipple and areola over anterior chest wall with a fibroadenoma inside it in a 20 year old lady.

Published: May 2022

This study analyses the changes in analyst recommendations in the Malaysian stock market from 2010 to 2018. Using samples of 668 upgrade recommendations and 495 downgrade recommendations, this study employs event study methodology to examine price performance by predicting abnormal returns using the market model. The findings indicate that significant positive stock price reactions occur following upgrade recommendations and significant negative stock price reactions occur following downgrade recommendations over a short-term and up to six-month period. Further analysis reveals no statistically significant difference in performance between analysts who are participants of the Capital Market Development Fund – Bursa Research Scheme (CBRS) and those who are not. This finding implies that, despite the significant market reaction to both upgrade and downgrade recommendations, CBRS’s financial analysts do not provide better analysis than those of non-CBRS analysts.
Income Inequality and its Important Determinants in India
Authors: Rout Sanjay Kumar , Behera Rajeswari
Published: May 2022

Income inequality is considerably high and still growing, which may cause a significant loss of India’s human development and economic performance in the post-pandemic period. Thus, using cointegrating models viz; FMOLS, DOLS, CCR, and ARDL models, we scrutinize short-run as well as long-run impact of natural disaster, economic development, technological innovation, and human capital on income inequality in India. Results show that the natural disasters and economic development worsen income inequality in both short- and long-run. Further, India’s human capital also aggravates income inequality in the short run. In contrast, India’s technological innovation and human capital in the long run improve income distribution significantly. Finally, the policy suggestions are mentioned in the conclusion section. Our results are consistent and robust with alternative modelling.

Teachers’ Feedback in Group Works of EFL Learning: Does It Influence Students’ Success?
Authors: Kardena Absharini
Published: May 2022

As one of suggested teaching techniques in EFL context, one of important stages in implementing group work is allocating time for testing students’ comprehension. This stage is claimed to be an important stage since it is aimed to evaluate teaching and learning processes. Moreover, this evaluation demands any feedback in order to improve the quality of teaching and learning processes and even group work activity. In other words, group work also requires such evaluation in terms of feedbacks in order to get the maximum effect of this teaching technique for the students. However, the feedback offered cannot always affect the processes in a positive way. Thus, the teachers need to consider any guidelines in offering the feedback. This article, which is derived and further developed based on research conducted in 2013, explores the role of teachers’ feedback in relation to the success of EFL learning at MAN Solok city, a state Islamic senior high school at Solok city, West Sumatera. The research was conducted under qualitative design in which searched out how the teachers offered feedback and how it influenced students’ success in learning English as foreign language. The research found that the teachers offers two kinds of feedback; they were praise and critics.

Saberes, políticas e éticas da terra e do ambiente entre camponeses, quilombolas e povos tradicionais: uma introdução
Authors: Teixeira Jorge Luan , Comerford John , Perutti Daniela Carolina
Published: May 2022

This introduction to the thematic section indicates the diversity of ways different peasant, quilombola, and traditional peoples regulate and negotiate use and access to land and “natural resources.” We explore how the knowledge, logics, politics, and ethics related to sharing land, forests, water, and beings (which all may or may not be considered to be for “common use”) are intertwined with the actual construction of these communities, to varying degrees of satisfaction and continuity. The “common assets” of these peoples include “arts” and “knowledge,” subtle, inventive, and everyday ways of producing relationality. We focus on situations of conflict and expropriation, as well as government policies on economic development or environmental conservation, to reflect on the responses and strategies used by these peoples to stop predatory practices that target their spaces and ways of life.elocation-id: e2230109Recebido: 04.15.2022   •   Aceito: 05.06.2022   •   Publicado: 05.20.2022Original article  /  Open access
A multiplicidade das águas no fazer das pessoas: corpo, gênero e materialidades em um quilombo pernambucano
Authors: Rabello de Castro Centelhas Marcela
Published: May 2022

This article is based on an ethnography of quilombola families in the countryside of Pernambuco. As I became more solidly established in the daily life of this community, my position in terms of gender and generation allowed me to shift my focus to local forms of using, classifying, and symbolizing water. Perceiving the multiplicity of water (in terms of sensory characteristics, qualities, effects, and relationships with bodies and collectivities) permits critical reflection on academic and government discourses on the semiarid region, which consider water a scarce natural resource. By focusing on the daily dynamics of water, the home emerged as a center from which the handling of water revealed connections between bodies and materialities. These connections proved valuable for thinking about the uses of water in relation to gendered work and attributions, conflicts, expectations and moral judgments, situations of prestige and humiliation, forms of care, and public presentation of bodies.elocation-id: e2230110Recebido: 11.15.2021   •   Aceito: 04.04.2022   •   Publicado: 20.05.2022Original article  /  Blind peer review  /  Open access
Influence of Triple Diffusive Convection in Peristaltic Flow of Jeffrey Nanofluid Through Non-Uniform Channel
Authors: Asha S. K. , Kallolikar N.
Published: May 2022

In this investigation, we considered the effect of triple diffusive convection on peristaltic flow through a non-uniform Channel. We also considered the incompressible non-Newtonian Jeffrey nanofluid. On the assumption of a long wavelength and low Reynolds number, the governing equations were transformed into a non-dimensional form. The reduced non-dimensional highly nonlinear partial differential equations are solved using the Homotopy Perturbation Sumudu transformation method (HPSTM). The influence of different physical parameters on dimensionless velocity, pressure gradient, temperature, the concentration of salt 1 and salt 2, and volume fraction was graphically represented. The Dufour solutal Lewis number of salt 1 and salt 2 on the velocity profile increases. The Dufour solutal Lewis number and modified Dufour parameter of salt 1 rises on nanoparticle volume fraction profile. It is found that the presence of the triple diffusing components with small diffusivity can change the convection in the system. The change in density in a triple diffusive is caused by the thermal and solutal diffusivities of two separate chemical species. So this study is applicable in engineering and scientific fields like geology, astrophysics, disposal of nuclear waste, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and chemical engineering. This work is compared with the exact solution, and it is in good agreement with this method.

Authors: Juma Rose , Atoni Rose
Published: May 2022

Attitude has been considered to play a major role in second language learning. Learners’ tendencies to like or dislike a subject affected their overall performance. The study examined the relationship that existed between students’ attitudes and Kiswahili language performance as well as the relationship between gender and attitude towards Kiswahili. The study employed a cross-sectional survey design. A simple random sampling procedure was used to select 45 schools, 343 students and 121 teachers of Kiswahili. The research instruments included questionnaires for teachers, an attitude scale for students, and document analysis guide and the Kiswahili achievement test. The test re-test method was used to ascertain the reliability of the instrument’s results. Descriptive data were analysed by use of means, standard deviations, and percentages, while inferential data were analysed by use of t-test for significance of r and Independent Sample T-tests. The study findings established that there was a significant relationship between student attitude and Kiswahili subject performance. Students with positive attitudes performed better than those who held negative attitudes towards the subject. Regarding gender and attitude, it was evident that the Female students exhibited a positive attitude towards Kiswahili as compared to their male counterparts. Additionally, female students performed better in the Kiswahili subject, but the difference was non-significant. The study recommended that teachers needed to come up with teaching methods that would foster positive attitudes among students, like engaging students in co-curricular activities, symposiums, debates, and dramatising set-books, among others.
Myeloid cell leukemia-1: a formidable barrier to anticancer therapeutics and the quest of targeting it
Authors: Sulkshane Prasad , Teni Tanuja
Published: May 2022

The antiapoptotic B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) family members are apical regulators of the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis that orchestrate mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP) through interactions with their proapoptotic counterparts. Overexpression of antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins has been linked to therapy resistance and poor prognosis in diverse cancers. Among the antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family members, predominant overexpression of the prosurvival myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1) has been reported in a myriad of hematological malignancies and solid tumors, contributing to therapy resistance and poor outcomes, thus making it a potential druggable target. The unique structure of Mcl-1 and its complex regulatory mechanism makes it an adaptive prosurvival switch that ensures tumor cell survival despite therapeutic intervention. This review focusses on diverse mechanisms adopted by tumor cells to maintain sustained elevated levels of Mcl-1 and how high Mcl-1 levels contribute to resistance in conventional as well as targeted therapies. Moreover, recent developments in the Mcl-1-targeted therapeutics and the underlying challenges and considerations in designing novel Mcl-1 inhibitors are also discussed.
Environmental management: Modelling Plants Nutrients Values During the Composting Process
Authors: Ramdani Nadia , Bounazef Mokhtar
Published: May 2022

Composting of domestic wastes is one of the natural methods of eliminating foods wastes without damaging the environment. This process provides plants nutrients in the form of hygienic products, similar to mineral-rich soil called agricultural compost. The content of these formed components depends on several factors in the process, such as the humidity, the rejects quantities, their ratios to each other, the type of waste, the composting temperature and the elements interactions during the physico-chemical transformations. The innovation in this study, which remains the essential aim of this work, is to show how the formed essential plants nutrients, such as potassium, nitrogen, and phosphorus, depend not only on the humidity of the environment, the aeration by oxygen and the composition of the domestic wastes, but also on the interaction between them combined with the transformation time. Mathematical modelling using the design of experiments method, revealing that the presence of one element of three in the compost is a function of the two others in time, shows this. The mathematical model showing the variation of composting time as function of the minerals presence in the compost by graphs, contours and response surfaces; they simultaneously interprets the results of this process. One of the final objectives is to estimate by prediction the values of composting days without new experiments.ε

METAPHYSICAL BASIS OF HEGEL'S TEACHING ON PUNISHMENT
Authors: Афанасьевский Вадим Леонидович
Published: May 2022

В статье рассматривается учение о наказании выдающегося немецкого мыслителя-диалектика Г. В. Ф. Гегеля. Автор показывает, что феномен наказания мыслитель анализирует в пространстве своего понимания права в качестве свободы. Гегель исходит из той мысли, что преступное деяние в качестве нарушенного права как права (но не как основание зла) требует своего снятия. Посредством оппонирования некоторым криминалистам, например, Э. Клейну, Гегель подвергает критике интерпретацию событий преступления и наказания в качестве зла как такового. Мыслитель подчеркивает, что желание зла является совершенно нерациональным, ибо в мире уже наличествует другое зло. Автор подробно рассматривает гегелевское понимание того, что неправомерно представлять феномен наказания лишь в качестве инструмента и орудия восстановления попранного права. Вместе с этим Гегель считает, что сам преступник имеет право на наказание, коренящееся в самом преступном деянии, которое трактуется как проступок свободного индивида. Не принимая жесткость мести и талиона, мыслитель исходит из равенства преступления и наказания, трактуемого через ценность. В итоге Гегель приходит к тому, что сам акт снятия преступления посредством наказания требует перехода теоретических построений в сферу морали, где значимыми становятся целеполагания и мотивы действий индивидов. Только в проступках субъективная воля воплощается в объективную и поэтому переходит в пространство закона.

The article examines the doctrine of punishment by the distinguished German dialectic thinker G. W. F. Hegel. The author analyzes that the phenomenon of punishment is analyzed by the thinker in the space of his understanding of right as freedom. Hegel proceeds from the idea that criminal act as a violated right, but not as a basis of evil, needs to be removed. By means of opposing to some criminalists like E. Klein he criticises the interpretation of crime and punishment as evil as such. Hegel stresses that the desire for evil is completely irrational, for there is already another evil in the world. The author elaborates on Hegel's understanding that it is wrong to present the phenomenon of punishment only as an instrument and an instrument of restoring a violated right. At the same time Hegel considers that the offender himself has a right rooted in the criminal act itself, which is treated as a transgression of a free individual. While not accepting the harshness of revenge and talion, the thinker proceeds from the equality of crime and punishment as interpreted through value. As a result, Hegel reaches the conclusion that the act of removing crime through punishment brings his theoretical constructions into the realm of morality, where the goal-setting and motives of individuals' actions become significant. Only in misdemeanours does the subjective will translate into the objective will and therefore move into the realm of law.

Данная статья посвящена рассмотрению вопросов профессионального становления и самоопределения молодых людей, решивших связать свою судьбу со службой в уголовно-исполнительной системе. Методолого-теоретическими ориентирами исследования выступили положения концепции индивидуальной психологии А. Адлера, а также теоретические взгляды и выявленные закономерности в отечественной возрастной и юридической психологии, психологии труда и акмеологии. Результаты проведенного исследования статистически подтвердили наличие взаимосвязи между «комплексом недостаточности» и степенью сформированности профессиональных установок на стадии практического принятия решения у курсантов специализированного вуза. У курсантов с «псевдокомпенсацией» в отличие от курсантов с «реальной компенсацией» комплекс недостаточности выражен более сильно. Эта психологическая особенность личности курсантов оказывает дезадаптирующее влияние на формирование у них профессиональных установок и в целом на дальнейшее их профессиональное становление, а также представляет собой благоприятную почву для формирования личности по дезадаптивному или псевдокомпенсаторному пути развития. Полученные результаты имеют значение для решения проблемы психологического сопровождения курсантов специализированного вуза в целях оптимизации их профессионального становления.

This article is devoted to the consideration of issues of professional development and self-determination of young people who have decided to connect their fate with service in the penitentiary system. The methodological and theoretical guidelines for the study were the provisions of the concept of individual psychology by A. Adler, as well as theoretical views and patterns identified in domestic developmental and legal psychology, labor psychology and acmeology. The results of the study statistically confirmed the existence of a relationship between the «insufficiency complex» and the degree of formation of professional attitudes at the stage of practical decision-making among cadets of a specialized university. In cadets with «pseudo compensation», in contrast to cadets with «real compensation», the insufficiency complex is more pronounced. This psychological feature of the personality of cadets has a maladaptive influence on the formation of their professional attitudes, and, in general, on their further professional development, and also represents a fertile ground for the formation of a personality along a maladaptive or pseudo-compensatory path of development. The results obtained are important for solving the problem of psychological support for cadets of a specialized university in order to optimize their professional development.
