Authors: José Fernández-Cavia  , Sara Vinyals-Mirabent  , Valeriano Piñeiro-Naval  , José Filipe-Torres
Published: June 2024

Las campañas de marketing y los productos de las industrias culturales son un factor que influye de manera importante en la intención de visita de los turistas. Ambos elementos pueden considerarse, sin embargo, integrados en la percepción integral de un destino. La percepción de la imagen de los destinos se ha estudiado con anterioridad, pero no existen investigaciones de amplio alcance geográfico que evalúen la relación entre la percepción global de la marca país y la intención de visita. Para demostrar empíricamente esa relación se ha llevado a cabo una encuesta online a 2.151 individuos procedentes de 21 países que evalúan el nivel de familiaridad, la percepción global y la intención de visita de una muestra de 55 países de todo el mundo. A partir del análisis estadístico de los resultados se concluye que se produce una correlación positiva, significativa y muy elevada entre la percepción global del país y la intención de visitarlo. Además, a través de un análisis de clústeres bietápico, se agrupan las 55 marcas país en tres categorías: marcas consolidadas, infraapreciadas e infra-consideradas, lo que permite proponer algunas recomendaciones estratégicas. También se observa que los países poco desarrollados, en general, sufren de una peor percepción, lo que se traduce en una peor intención de visita, lo que compromete a su vez, en una especie de círculo vicioso, sus posibilidades de desarrollo futuro
Methodologies, Knowledge Areas and Tourist Destinations Addressed in Scientific Research on Tourism Induced by Audiovisual Fiction (1988-2021)
Authors: María C. Puche-Ruiz  , Esmeralda Crespo-Almendros  , Sebastián Sánchez-Castillo
Published: June 2024

This article analyses the methodological evolution experienced in academic research on the phenomenon of tourism induced first by the cinema and later by the audiovisual media in general during the period 1988-2021. Emphasis is placed on the methodological techniques employed and the tourist destinations considered from the perspective of marketing, communication and tourism studies. By means of a systematised analysis, 354 articles from the Scopus, WOS and Journal Citation Report databases were reviewed. The results suggest the existence of two main lines of analysis: conceptual theory (cultural geography and communication) and empirical analysis (analysis of specific products by marketing experts). Descriptive and quantitative analyses were found to be in the majority as opposed to causal and qualitative analyses. The predominance of researchers from the Anglo-Saxon and Asian spheres, who study the phenomenon of film-induced tourism within their borders, has been discovered.

Қазақ тіл білімінде жалғаулықтардың грамматикалық қызметін зерттеу профессор Р.Әміровтен басталып, онан беріде бірнеше диссертация қорғалды. Алайда жалғаулықтардың грамматикалық табиғаты түгелдей анықталып болды деуге әлі ертерек. Мәселен, бір ғана «және» тұлғасының өзіне қатысты қаншама түйткілді мәселе бар. Бұған, біріншіден, «және» тұлғасының грамматикалық функциясының уақыт өте келе кеңеюі ықпал етсе, екінші жағынан, жалғаулықтар лингвистикалық табиғатының күні бүгінге дейін зерттеліп бітпегені себеп болып отыр. Мақалада «және» тұлғасының грамматикалық ерекшелігі «тағы» және «қайта» тұлғаларымен салыстырыла қаралады. Өйткені бұл тұлғалардың өзара квазисиноним болатын мүмкіндігі бар. Мұның себебі ең әуелі тарихи даму процесімен байланысты. Сондықтан ертедегі «йана», қазіргі «және» тұлғасының тарихи даму сатысына орай транспозициялануын арнайы зерттеу қажеттігі туындайды. Нәтижесінде «және» тұлғасының грамматикалық функциясы ғылым талабына орай мүлде жаңаша көзқараста сипатталып отыр. Атап айтқанда, бүгінде жалғаулық ретінде ғана танылып жүрген «және» тұлғасының этимологиясы сараланып, сөйлемде үстеу де, демеулік те болатыны мәлім болды. Грамматикалық мағынасын анықтау критерийлері ұсынылды. Бұл кезге дейін түсініксіз болып келген сипаттарының сыры ашылды. Сондай-ақ грамматика теорияларында кездесе бермейтін функциясы жөнінде баяндалды. Мақалада жасалған тұжырымдар түркология және қазақ тіл білімінің өзекті мәселелерін зерттейтін магистранттар мен докторанттарға ғылыми материал болады.

As well, how this test is done in order to increase awareness about the usefulness of such quality control tests in a simple way.
No One is Immune to Infertility
Authors: Gupta PD
Published: June 2024

Both primary and secondary infertility affects millions of person’s world over. There are several factors that can contribute to infertility in women and men however about 1 in 5 cases of infertility are identified as unexplained. There’s a time frame to fertility in human life span; child bearing age is defined in females but not in males in general. Infertility has significant negative social impacts particularly on women. Infertility is regarded as a negative force in population dynamics because there is no biological replacement, and the continuation of human society. Infertile couples might experience social and psychological distress such as depression, anxiety, social isolation, and sexual dysfunction. Infertile couples suffer from an impaired health-related quality of life. Women in particular are at greater risk of violence, divorce, social stigma, emotional stress, depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. In women, cause of infertility can include endometriosis, uterine fibroids and thyroid disease. Men with fertility problems may have a low sperm count or low testosterone. The risk of infertility increases with age.
The Role of Genetic Mutations on Gene MYT1 Polymorphism (rs2273455) in Bipolar & Borderline Personality Disorder
Authors: Asadi Shahin
Published: June 2024

Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder that can cause extreme mood swings: at times you may be extremely "high", euphoric, irritable or energetic. This is called an episode of madness. At other times, you may feel "down," sad, apathetic, or hopeless. Cyclothymic disorder or cyclothymia also includes hypomanic and depressive symptoms. But they are not as severe and prolonged as hypomanic or depressive episodes. These symptoms usually last for at least two years in adults and one year in children and adolescents.
Are migrant passerines faithful to their individual paths and migration timing throughout their lives?
Authors: Payevsky V.A.
Published: June 2024

Some publications report that passerine birds, compared with geese and waders, show much less annual faithfulness to migration routes and stopover sites, and that faithfulness to them decreases with increasing length of the migration path. The analysis of numerous recaptures of ringed birds in the Curonian Spit (Eastern Baltic) led to the opposite conclusions. The calculations were carried out on thousands of recaptures obtained over 30 years (1957–1986) from two of the most numerous species, chaffinch Fringilla coelebs Linnaeus, 1758 (Fringillidae) and willow warbler Phylloscopus trochilus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Phylloscopidae). It turned out that a significant part of the migratory populations (34–41% of recaptured birds) retains the same migration path and approximately the same migration timing in other years after ringing. Assumptions about the dependence of the degree of fidelity to migration routes on their length have not been confirmed, since the fidelity indicators of willow warbler, which has a much longer route than chaffinch, were even higher than those of the chaffinch. The data on the individual life longevity of the recaptured migrants (up to 9 years in the chaffinch and up to 4 years in the willow warbler) confirm the fidelity to the same migration path throughout the life of the studied birds.
Bronchial Asthma as an Occupational and Environmental Disease: Current Views on the Problem According to the Recommendations of the International Labour Organization in 2022
Authors: Basanets A. V. , Hvozdetskyy V. A.
Published: June 2024

Abstract. According to the International Labour Organization (ILO), the annual incidence of occupational bronchial asthma (OBA) ranges from 12 to 300 cases per million workers. Unlike in European countries, bronchial asthma in Ukraine remains an «under-recognised» occupational disease, accounting for less than 0.2 % of occupational pathology. The aim of the study: to analyse the algorithm for diagnosing and recognising bronchial asthma as an occupational disease according to the ILO 2022 recommendations, to compare its main provisions with the current one in Ukraine in order to adapt the system of registration of OBA to the requirements of the European Union because of the European integration process. Materials and methods. An analytical review of scientific publications using the abstract databases of scientific libraries PubMed, Medline and text databases of scientific publishers PubMed, Central, BMJ group and other VIP databases. The main legislative documents of Ukraine and the ILO regulating the process of recognising occupational diseases were analysed. The methods of system and content analysis were used. The results. Population risk assessments show that the development of 9–15 % of asthma cases in working population is directly related to exposure to harmful factors in the workplace. The risk of disease development is significantly increased due to air pollution with chemical and toxic substances as a result of hostilities in Ukraine. A comparative analysis of the international principles of diagnosis and recognition of bronchial asthma as an occupational disease with a similar system in Ukraine revealed significant differences: Ukrainian documents do not contain important information on the properties of various forms of chemical compounds, their toxicological profile, the minimum duration of exposure that causes an occupational disease, and the latency period. The lack of reference to these legally defined indicators affects the objectivity of diagnosis, the unification of diagnoses, which leads to a distortion of statistical indicators of occupational morbidity in Ukraine. Conclusions. The system of diagnosis and recording of occupational diseases, including OBA, should be improved according to the current ILO 2022 recommendations because of the reintegration processes of Ukraine’s accession to the European Union. Key words: occupational bronchial asthma, sensitizers, irritants.
CHANGING CULTURAL TASTES
Authors: Waine Anthony
Published: June 2024

Changing Cultural Tastes offers a critical survey of the taste wars fought over the past two centuries between the intellectual establishment and the common people in Germany. It charts the uneasy relationship of high and popular culture in Germany in the modern era. The impact of National Socialism and the strong influence from Great Britain and the United States are assessed in this cultural history of a changing nation and society. The period 1920-1980 is given special prominence, and the work of significant writers and artists such as Josef von Sternberg and Bertolt Brecht, Elfriede Jelinek and Rolf Dieter Brinkmann, Erwin Piscator and Heinrich Böll, is closely analysed. Their work has reflected changing tastes and, crucially, helped to make taste more pluralistic and democratic.
MODERNITY AND SECESSION
Authors: Huysseune Michel
Published: June 2024

The northern Italian, ‘Padanian’ identity, fostered by the Lega Nord, is rooted in the long-standing tradition, in political and scholarly discourse, of casting regional differences within Italy in terms of a North-South geographic divide. Trying to come to terms, in the late 1980s and 1990s, with Italy’s (real or presumed) inadequacies – such as inefficient government, corruption, and organized crime – this imagined geography acquired political centrality in that the North became associated with the virtues of modernity and the South with the vices of un-modernity. It was not only politicians but also social scientists, who fostered and perpetuated this conceptualization of the North-South divide, thus imposing a normative hierarchy between the two parts of the country. In response to this discourse many scholars, both in Italy and abroad, have started to question this perception of the South as a “backward” and implicitly inferior society. Starting from this critical tradition, Michel Huysseune provides a new, systematic, and interdisciplinary approach that re-interprets the premises behind Italy’s imagined geography of modernity. He moves beyond an understanding of the South as a “backward” and implicitly inferior society and problematizes normative notions of modernity, thus offering a new perspective on the North-South divide, which has a significance well beyond the case of Italy.
THE ROMANI MOVEMENT
Authors: Vermeersch Peter
Published: June 2024

The collapse of communism and the process of state building that ensued in the 1990s have highlighted the existence of significant minorities in many European states, particularly in Central Europe. In this context, the growing plight of Europe’s biggest minority, the Roma (Gypsies), has been particularly salient. Traditionally dispersed, possessing few resources and devoid of a common “kin state” to protect their interests, the Roma have often suffered from widespread exclusion and institutionalized discrimination. Politically underrepresented and lacking popular support amongst the wider populations of their host countries, the Roma have consequently become one of Europe’s greatest “losers” in the transition towards democracy. Against this background, the author examines the recent attempts of the Roma in Central Europe and their supporters to form a political movement and to influence domestic and international politics. On the basis of first-hand observation and interviews with activists and politicians in the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia, he analyzes connections between the evolving state policies towards the Roma and the recent history of Romani mobilization. In order to reach a better understanding of the movement’s dynamics at work, the author explores a number of theories commonly applied to the study of social movements and collective action.
GLOBAL AMBITIONS AND LOCAL IDENTITIES
Authors: Ailon Galit
Published: June 2024

Until recently, international mergers of companies have been seen as purely financial ventures without any concern for what they meant for the people involved. However, attitudes are gradually changing. This study of a successful Israeli high-tech company's merger with an American competitor offers an important contribution to a better understanding of the social and personal ramifications of mergers. Based upon in-depth fieldwork, the book explores the reality behind the statistics, balance sheets, and managerial prescriptions that are the focus of most studies of international mergers and acquisitions. Offering a richly detailed description of everyday work life, the author reveals the dramas of identity that unfold as a consequence of the company's attempts to redefine the boundaries of the organizational collective by adding to it people from another country. The book debunks many myths used to support arguments both for and against globalization and offers instead an in-depth depiction and a grounded assessment of its everyday realities.
STARSTRUCK
Authors: Harrison Albert A.
Published: June 2024

We live in an era of exploding scientific knowledge about the universe, and our place and future within it. Much of this new knowledge conflicts with earlier wisdom, and some has frightening implications. Cosmic evolution, space exploration, the search for extraterrestrial life, and concerns about humanity’s future prompt us to seek new answers to old existential questions. Where did we come from? Why are we here? Are we alone? What will become of us? In our search for answers, we turn to science, religion, myth, and varying combinations thereof. Exploring an ambiguous region between recognized findings and unfettered imagination, Starstruck explores the multifaceted, far-reaching, and often contentious attempts of people with contrasting worldviews to develop convincing and satisfying interpretations of rapidly accumulating discoveries in physics, astronomy, and biology.
INTERSECTED IDENTITIES
Authors: Segre Erica
Published: June 2024

There has always been an important visual element to the construction and questioning of national identity in post-Independence Mexico, though one that has not always been given its due, outside of the celebrated and much-studied muralists. Ranging from the early nineteenth century to the present – from the vogue for the picturesque, illustrated periodicals and the influential writings of Altamirano to a wealth of twentieth-century graphic artists, filmmakers and photographers – this book re-examines the complex variety of ways in which that visual element has operated. In particular, it looks at the ways in which discourses concerning ethnicity and cultural hybridity have been echoed and transformed in Mexican visual culture, resulting in fields of visual discourse which are eclectic and increasingly self-reflexive.
EMPATHY AND HEALING
Authors: Skultans Vieda
Published: June 2024

For more than three decades the author has been concerned with issues to do with emotion, suffering and healing. This volume presents ethnographic studies of South Wales, Maharashtra and post-Soviet Latvia connected by a theoretical interest in healing, emotion and subjectivity. Exploring the uses of narrative in the shaping of memory, autobiography and illness and its connections with the master narratives of history and culture, it focuses on the post-Soviet clinic as an arena in which the contradictions of a liberal economy are translated into a medical language.
THE PROBLEM OF MONEY
Authors: Bierlich Bernhard M.
Published: June 2024

Based on long-term medical anthropological research in northern Ghana, the author analyses issues of health and healing, of gender, and of the control and use of money in a changing rural African setting. He describes the culture of medical pluralism, so typical for neo-colonial states, and people’s choices of “traditional” (local) medicine (plants and sacrifices), Islamic medicine (charms and various written solutions) and ”modern” therapy (biomedicine, in particular western pharmaceuticals). He concludes that the rural-urban divide is a fiction, that demarcations between these areas are frequently blurred, linked by a postcolonial, capitalist discourse of local markets, regional economies and national structures, which frequently emerge in local African settings but often originate in global and multinational markets.
THE FATEFUL ALLIANCE
Authors: Beck Hermann
Published: June 2024

On 30 January 1933, Alfred Hugenberg's conservative German National People's Party (DNVP) formed a coalition government with the Nazi Party, thus enabling Hitler to accede to the chancellorship. This book analyzes in detail the complicated relationship between Conservatives and Nazis and offers a re-interpretation of the Nazi seizure of power - the decisive months between 30 January and 14 July 1933. The Machtergreifung is characterized here as a period of all-pervasive violence and lawlessness with incessant conflicts between Nazis and German Nationals and Nazi attacks on the conservative Bürgertum, a far cry from the traditional depiction of the takeover as a relatively bloodless, virtually sterile assumption of power by one vast impersonal apparatus wresting control from another. The author scrutinizes the revolutionary character of the Nazi seizure of power, the Nazis' attacks on the conservative Bürgertum and its values, and National Socialism's co-optation of conservative symbols of state power to serve radically new goals, while addressing the issue of why the DNVP was complicit in this and paradoxically participated in eroding the foundations of its very own principles and bases of support.
MUSEUMS, THE MEDIA AND REFUGEES
Authors: Goodnow Katherine , Lohman Jack , Marfleet Philip
Published: June 2024

Across countries and time, asylum-seekers and refugees have been represented in a variety of ways. In some representations they appear negatively, as dangers threatening to ‘over-run’ a country or a region with ‘floods’ of incompatible strangers. In others, the same people are portrayed positively, with compassion, and pictured as desperately in need of assistance. How these competing perceptions are received has significant consequences for determining public policy, human rights, international agreements, and the realization of cultural diversity, and so it is imperative to understand how these images are perpetuated. To this end, this volume reflects on museum practice and the contexts, stories, and images of asylum seekers and refugees prevalent in our mass media. Based on case studies from Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom, the overall findings are illustrative of narratives and images common to museums and the media throughout the world. They aim to challenge political rhetoric and populist media imagery and consider what forms of dissent are likely to be sustained and what narratives ultimately break through and can lead to empathy and positive political change.

Hydrolandscape Method of territory Zoning: Concept and Application Experience
Authors: Panyukova E. V. , Agasoi V. V. , Medvedev S. G.
Published: June 2024

The paper describes the method and algorithm for creating the sketch-maps of hydrolandscapes to solve practical tasks of forecasting and controlling the number of mass species of blood-sucking insects such as gadflies and mosquitoes. The hydrolandscape method consists in dividing the regions into zones by content, distribution and conservation of moisture as the most important ecosystemic component. The method evaluates the influence of insufficient or excessive moisture content on the life activity of amphibiotic insects. Landscapes similar by moisture content, relief, mesoclimate, soils, vegetation and groups of blood-sucking insects are combined into hydrolandscapes. This method has been applied for different regions of the North-West of Russia (the Novgorod, Leningrad and Pskov Regions), as well as for the Komi Republic. The paper illustrates this experience. Using the hydrolandscape method, the specialists can forecast the species composition and relative abundance of blood-sucking insects in remote areas before they get developed by humans.

The need to solve the global problems of humanity has already convincingly and indisputably proven the feasibility of introducing the concept of sustainable development into the practical sphere of economic activity and management of business entities. However, the complexity and scale of the components of the trilemma of sustainable development create several risks and threats to the organization's management system. These risks are exacerbated by the unpredictable effects of external and internal business environment factors. The article examines the peculiarities of managing the activities of enterprises based on sustainable development under the influence of factors of a changing business environment. The proposed author's vision of the content of sustainable development is based on the combination of commercial and non-commercial goals of the company's existence. The implementation of the principles of the global concept of sustainable development in the practical sphere of enterprise management showed the urgent need to consider the challenges and risks exacerbated by the high degree of volatility and variability of the external business environment. Under such conditions, modern approaches to management are updated, which are based on the principles of risk management and allow effective management and leveling of the consequences of transformational transformations associated with the sustainable development of the company. It was determined that the key risks for sustainable business are environmental, social and managerial risks. Considering the nature of their origin and the nature of the manifestation, the article examines the phasing of the risk management process recommended by the world's leading companies when the company achieves the goals of sustainable development.
A set of management methods based on the principles of sustainable business development is recommended under the conditions of the need to level the risks of the organization's changing environment. Among the main ones, the following are proposed: a method of analyzing hierarchy processes; method of analytical and network processes; a method of assessing the priority of organizational sub-risks of sustainable management; compliance, assessment of codes of business conduct, assessment of sustainability risks of supply chains.
It was determined that the achievement of the goals and objectives of sustainable development and modern approaches to risk management of the business environment should be based on a more transparent disclosure of information about activities. The international standard IFRS S1 "General Requirements For Disclosures Of Sustainability-Related Financial Information" is not just a strategic guideline, but a necessity for the disclosure of information and the creation of a transparent information and analytical management base. This practice is now becoming mandatory for large and medium-sized businesses in foreign management practice, underlining its importance in sustainable business management.
The Influence of the Concentration of Gelling Agents on the Structural-Mechanical Properties of Composite Fruit Jellies from Pears
Authors: Manev Z. , Petkova N.
Published: June 2024

This study aims to evaluate the influence of the different types of gelling agents at various concentrations on the structural-mechanical properties of composite fruit jellies. Sodium alginate, iota-carrageenan and low-esterified amidated pectin were used as gelling agents at four different concentration levels for the preparation of composite jellies. All the structural-mechanical properties of obtained jellies were determined by a penetration test with a texture analyzer. The rupture force is reduced in the highest extent when the concentration of low-esterified amidated pectin (LEAP) increases, while the lowest change was observed when the content of sodium alginate increases. The highest values of rupture force of the composite jellies to the control were obtained at the maximum concentration (1.6%) of added iota-carrageenan. Increasing the concentration of iota-carrageenan made the composite jellies harder and more elastic. The addition of sodium alginate and LEAP made them softer compared to the control sample. Regardless of the type and the concentration of the added gelling agents in the composite jellies, their adhesiveness was significantly higher compared to the control sample.

Published: June 2024

Understanding a product's ecological footprint has become incredibly important, as its assessment supports efforts to promote sustainable practices. However, there is limited knowledge about the specific environmental impacts of woodworking enterprises and their products. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the ecological footprint of a typical product from a woodworking enterprise in the Carpathian Economic Region of Ukraine. A middle-sized wood-processing enterprise was used as a case study. To achieve this objective, the study quantified the land area directly involved in producing 1 m3 of furniture board. Also, the concept of a "virtual area" of land, essential for CO2 absorption resulting from the transportation of raw materials for the production of 1 m³ of furniture board, was applied. Then the methodological approach to determine the "virtual area" of land necessary for the absorption of CO2 generated during the production of electricity which is spent on the operation of the main technological equipment and electricity consumption to produce 1 m3 of furniture panel is considered. The overall ecological footprint of producing 1 m3 of furniture board at the studied woodworking company is estimated as equivalent to 0.492 ha of forested area, from which only 3% of area is represented by direct land use - area used to produce wood for furniture board production.

Masalah kondisi perubahan iklim akibat adanya peningkatan emisi CO2 yang dihasilkan dari berbagai jenis aktifitas manusia salah satunya adalah akibat dari deforestasi. Masalah deforestasi seringkali disepelekan dan diremehkan padahal pengaruh dari deforestasi dapat menjadi penghambat dalam program Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) terutama SDGs 13 yaitu menstabilkan perubahan iklim. Selain itu, masalah deforestasi paling banyak terjadi di wilayah yang beriklim tropis. Oleh karena itu, tujuan utama dalam penelitian ini adalah menganalisis pengaruh deforestasi terhadap emisi CO2 pada 14 negara beriklim tropis di benua Asia selama 20 tahun dari tahun 2001-2020. Penelitian ini juga akan mengkaji pengaruh jumlah penduduk, pendapatan dan konsumsi energi terhadap emisi CO2. Untuk mencapai tujuan utama dalam penelitian ini, digunakan studi empiris kuantitatif dengan metode utamanya adalah metode DOLS dan untuk memperkuat ketahanan hasil estimasi digunakan metode FMOLS. Hasil estimasi DOLS menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan 1% deforestasi maka akan meningkatkan emisi CO2 sebesar 0.026105%. Selain itu, pendapatan dan konsumsi energi dikatahui memiliki pengaruh terhadap peningkatan emisi CO2 dan pada penelitian lebih lanjut terkait hubungan pendapatan dan emisi CO2, diketahui bahwa terdapat EKC berbentuk U terbalik. Namun demikian, pengaruh jumlah penduduk diketahui berpengaruh terhadap pengurangan emisi CO2. Hasil estimasi DOLS ini diperkuat dengan hasil estimasi FMOLS yang menunjukkan pengaruh dan arah yang sama. Dari hasil penelitian ini, kebijakan yang harus diambil oleh para pemengang kekuasaan adalah memperketat aturan mengenai kehutanan terutama terkait izin penebangan dan pengalihan lahan. Serta saran praktis yang harus dilakukan adalah dengan melakukan tindakan reboisasi.
