Abstract. On September 3rd 2017 official channels of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea announced the successful test of a thermonuclear device. Only seconds to minutes after the alleged nuclear explosion at the Punggye-ri nuclear test site in the mountainous region in the country's northeast at 03:30:02 (UTC) hundreds of seismic stations distributed all around the globe picked up strong and distinct signals associated with an explosion. Different seismological agencies reported body wave magnitudes of well above 6.0, consequently estimating the explosive yield of the device in the order of hundreds of kilotons TNT equivalent. The 2017 event can therefore be assessed being multiple times larger in energy than the two preceding events in January and September 2016. This study provides a multi-technology analysis of the 2017 North Korean event and its aftermath using a wide array of geophysical methods. Seismological investigations locate the event within the test site at a depth of approximately 0.8 km below surface. The radiation and generation of P- and S-wave energy in the source region is significantly influenced by the topography of the Mt. Mantap massif. Inversions for the full moment tensor of the main event reveal a dominant isotropic component accompanied by significant amounts of double couple and compensated linear vector dipole terms, confirming the explosive character of the event. Analysis of the source mechanism of an aftershock that occurred around eight minutes after the test in the direct vicinity suggest a cavity collapse. Measurements at seismic stations of the International Monitoring System result in a body wave magnitude of 6.2, which translates to an yield estimate of around 400 kilotons TNT equivalent. The explosive yield is possibly overestimated, since topography and depth phases both tend to ehance the peak amplitudes of teleseismic P-waves. Interferometric Synthetic-Aperture-Radar analysis using data from the ALOS-2 satellite reveal strong surface deformations in the epicenter region. Additional multispectral optical data from the Pleiades satellite show clear landslide activity at the test site. The strong surface deformations generated large acoustic pressure peaks, which were observed as infrasound signals with distinctive waveforms even in distances of 400 km. In the aftermath of the 2017 event atmospheric traces of the fission product 133Xe have been detected at various locations in the wider region. While for 133Xe measurements in September 2017 the Punggye-ri test site is disfavored as source by means of atmospheric transport modeling, detections in October 2017 at the International Monitoring System station RN58 in Russia indicate a potential delayed leakage of 133Xe at the test site from the 2017 North Korean nuclear test.
Team Coaching Operating System (TCOS): The Intersection of Evidence-Based Research and Gestalt Principles
Authors: Hauser Laura L.
Published: October 2018

Although a 2014 Conference Board survey of coaching practices within organizations indicates that coaching focuses predominately on developing executives rather than teams, the use of team coaching is predicted to increase rapidly (Abel, Ray, and Nair 2016). The implication for coaches is significant, because coaching teams require additional knowledge sets, such as evidence-based frameworks (Hauser 2012, 2014). The implication for organizations is also significant, because an intervention at any level of the system will in some way influence all the other levels of the organizational system for better or worse (Stevenson 2018). This article breaks new ground by presenting a team intervention model, “Team Coaching Operating System (TCOS),” which is grounded in Gestalt principles and empirical team coaching research. Ultimately, it supports coaches in orchestrating interventions aligned with the team's readiness to make changes that improve its effectiveness and performance.
Expanding Awareness and Contact through Experiential Learning
Authors: Peterson Kay , Kolb David A.
Published: October 2018

A Gestalt approach to change and adaptation focuses on awareness and contact and therefore requires learning. Experiential Learning is the primary holistic process of adaptation, which integrates interdependent pairs of opposites to be most effective. We explore how Experiential Learning can provide a framework for Gestalt practitioners to make the learning process and our approach to it explicit, thereby increasing awareness. In addition, through the process and content of Experiential Learning, we provide suggestions for using Gestalt experiments to build flexibility in using learning styles that empower us to have choice in the way we make contact. We build awareness that learning is present in every life experience and is an invitation to be engaged in each experience. We become aware that we are learning, how we are learning, and—perhaps most importantly—what we are learning.
Refuge and Refugees in Myanmar: A Theravada Buddhist Response
Authors: Yeng Sokthan
Published: October 2018

An exploration of human rights violations against the Rohingya population, led by a Buddhist extremist group and under the watch of democracy icon, Aung San Suu Kyi, can shed light on the interplay of religion and Myanmar's state sovereignty as it emerges within a long history of British rule and domestic military dictatorship. This article suggests that the dynamic between religion and the burgeoning democracy in Myanmar can help explain why the romanticized narratives about wandering monks in Buddhist history and philosophy do not reflect the life of stateless people in Agamben's work.
Transcending the Paradox of Violence: A Dialectical/Dialogical Interrogation of the Colonial/Anti-Colonial Struggle in Algeria
Authors: Burr Steven A.
Published: October 2018

The growing complexity of contemporary globalized human culture, while creating greater opportunities for human relation, has likewise generated profound challenges to our human capacity to relate meaningfully. Using Gillo Pontecorvo's 1956 film The Battle of Algiers, Frantz Fanon's paradigmatic text The Wretched of the Earth, and the writings of Albert Camus as representative accounts of colonial/anti-colonial violence in the Algerian struggle for independence, this article will question the legitimacy of a dialectical approach to transcending the paradox of violence, proposing instead a manner of dialogical reconciliation through the human capacity for solidarity-in-relation.

Authors: Townsell Marlene , Legendre Alfred M. , Bemis David A. , Behrend Ellen , Phillips Stephanie
Published: October 2018

Disseminated fungal infections cause morbidity and mortality in dogs. The prognosis varies depending on the infecting agent. Phialosimplex caninus is a recently recognized type of hyalohyphomyces. Knowledge regarding the clinical course of P caninus infection in dogs is limited to two previous case reports. The clinical features, diagnostic findings, responses to medical therapy, and long-term outcomes of three dogs with disseminated P caninus are presented in this study. All dogs had improved quality of life once itraconazole administration, with or without terbinafine, was instituted. Long-term disease remission was maintained even after discontinuation of antifungal therapy in a single dog.

Authors: Schenk Ashley , Lux Cassie , Lane Jeanne , Martin Olya
Published: October 2018

Hypercalcemia is a biochemical abnormality that, when left untreated, can lead to life-threatening complications including renal failure. Bisphosphonates are routinely used to treat hypercalcemia, but most literature on veterinary patients describes the use of pamidronate. This retrospective case series describes the use of zoledronate for treatment of hypercalcemia in four dogs. Information including signalment, clinical signs, treatment, and outcome was collected. All dogs showed a decrease in total and ionized calcium concentrations after treatment with zoledronate. All treatments of zoledronate administered were well tolerated, but a previously unreported local hypersensitivity reaction was observed in one dog. This report is the first to document the efficacy of zoledronate for treatment of hypercalcemia in dogs.
Opportunistic Fungal Infections in Small Animals
Authors: Dedeaux Andrea , Grooters Amy , Wakamatsu-Utsuki Nobuko , Taboada Joseph
Published: October 2018

Opportunistic fungal infections have long been recognized as rare causes of disease in immunocompetent dogs and cats. Recently, the escalating use of multiagent immunosuppression protocols (especially those that include cyclosporine) has resulted in an increased number of patients with opportunistic fungal infection encountered by small animal practitioners and has altered the typical case phenotype. Based on histologic and cytologic features such as pigmentation, hyphal diameter, and distribution in tissue, these opportunistic mycoses can be placed into categories such as phaeohyphomycosis, hyalohyphomycosis, and eumycotic mycetoma. This review aims to summarize the clinical presentations, methods for diagnosis, treatment recommendations, and prognosis for both immunocompetent and immunosuppressed patients with opportunistic fungal infections. An example case description is included to illustrate the most common current clinical presentation.
Suspected Carboplatin Extravasation Reactions in Seven Dogs
Authors: Miller Kristina Bowles , Lejeune Amandine , Regan Rebecca , Szivek Anna , Kow Kevin
Published: October 2018

Carboplatin is a platinum chemotherapeutic agent commonly used in veterinary oncology that is currently classified as an irritant to local tissues when extravasated. To the authors’ knowledge, there are no reports of vesicant injuries associated with carboplatin administration reported in the veterinary literature. In this case series, seven dogs are described to have experienced injuries following a suspected carboplatin extravasation resembling vesicant injuries a median of 7 days after carboplatin administration (range 4–15 days). Wounds healed with a variety of treatments, including medical management and/or surgical debridement, a median of 25.5 days (range 7–49 days) after observation of the suspected extravasation injury. There were no obvious similarities involving carboplatin administration among patients to explain why these reactions occurred. Extravasation injury should be considered a possible local complication associated with carboplatin chemotherapy.

Published: October 2018

The study assessed how students and course tutors on distance education programmes of the College of DistanceEducation, University of Cape Coast appraised their study centre coordinators’ performance in terms of humanrelations, behaviour, organising teaching and learning facilities; and handling complaints. This type of appraisal,where students and tutors representing customers and subordinates respectively, is usually referred to as the360-feedback method in human resource management. Concurrent embedded study design from the pragmatists’epistemic approach was adopted for the study. Simple random and purposive sampling technique were respectivelyused to sample 1228 final year students and 217 course tutors from 53 study centres; and five coordinators from eachof the three Zones across the ten regions of Ghana for triangulation purposes. Data was analysed with descriptivestatistics, independent t-test and a one-way between-groups analysis of variance. The study found that coordinators’behavior and human relations were rated higher as compared to complaints handling and organising study centreactivities. This was blamed on lack of capacity to address most of students and tutors challenges; and teaching loadof coordinators. It was recommended that the management of College of Distance Education should increase thecapacity of coordinators for district and regional study centres as well as the Zones in terms of resources andtechnology to be able to take immediate steps to solve students and tutors’ complaints.

Published: October 2018

Proper diagnosis is a basis in the treatment of scoliotic posture and scoliosis. The aim of the study was to compare Moiré's spatial photogrammetry and Exhibeon digital radiology in the assessment of the primary curvature of the spine. The study involved 28 girls aged 7-18 years with scoliotic posture and scoliosis. Body posture as well as the spine were examined using Moiré’s spatial photogrammetry and the Exhibeon digital radiography method. Multiple regression analysis showed a significant but low correlation between the angle of primary curvature determined by the Moiré method and one determined using the X-ray method. Screening analysis of variance showed significant relationships between the primary spinal curvature determined by X-ray with the age of the subjects. The Cobb angle increased with the age of subjects. There was no such relationship between the primary curvature angle of the spine determined by the Moiré method and the age of the subjects. The obtained results indicate a moderate convergence of the primary spinal curvature variables assessed using the Moiré spatial photogrammetry method and Exhibeon digital radiography. X-ray examination is considered to be more reliable and credible. The examination of body posture and spine using Moiré’s spatial photogrammetry should play a screening and complementary role.

Published: October 2018

Performance analysis and visualization of canard and fuselage effects on flow patterns around an SBTF fighter model have been conducted. An SBTF fighter model with an experimental method in a water tunnel would easily reveal visually the vortex dynamics phenomenon that occurred. Testing has been done, with some form of non-canard and canard aircraft in a water tunnel, on vortex dynamics and aerodynamic power on the aircraft model. The stream demonstration used a fluid speed of 0.1 m/s and Reynolds number 6.577x103 on a 1:110 scale model and measured using dye injection method with a print ink type with a mixture ratio of 1:8. The result of the research using GAMA water tunnel showed the aerodynamic force and vortex dynamics phenomenon that happened on the model aircraft. The research on the benefits of the canard is also done by examining the performance and the flow visualization of an SBTF fighter without fuselage, with the symmetrical plane and with the regular fuselage in a water tunnel. The results showed that the use of canard affected the lift, drag, and flow pattern around the wings. The use of canard can enhance the lift of the plane and function to delay the stall by restoring the flow above the wing which should have experienced turbulence back into laminar so that the fighter can maneuver to a higher angle of attack (AoA) without stalling. It is identified that canard and fuselage play significant roles on the design of a fighter. The design choice of the fuselage and the employment of canard are fundamental to support the ability of maneuver and agility of the fighter.

The impact of Iranian EFL university students’ personality type on their burnout
Authors: Roohani Ali , Esmaeili Yeganeh , Rahimi Domakani Masoud
Published: October 2018

Burnout is a three dimensional phenomenon which is categorized as an important social problem. Personality type is also an important factor that may play a role in developing burnout. However, research has focused on job burnout, environmental factors, and their impacts on people and society and there is not much research related to student burnout and the impact of individual factors on student burnout. Thus, this study investigated the impact of EFL students’ personality type on their burnout. For data collection, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI-SS) were given to a sample of 292 Iranian EFL students from several universities. The results indicated that there was a significant difference between extrovert-introvert and sensing-intuition groups in three components of burnout (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment). Moreover, there was a significant difference between the judging-perceiving group in emotional exhaustion and depersonalization dimensions but, there was not a significant difference between them in the personal accomplishment dimension. Besides, there was not any significant difference in the thinking-feeling group in three dimensions of burnout. The findings can give EFL teachers and students the power to predict which students will be more at risk for burnout and help them to prevent burnout.
Learner expectations and satisfaction in a US-Spain intercultural telecollaboration
Authors: Gimeno Ana
Published: October 2018

The focus of this paper is the analysis of data collected after conducting a telecollaboration project throughout one semester with 12 advanced learners of Spanish from a mid-sized Atlantic coast university in the USA and 12 higher intermediate students of English from a technical university in Spain. Data was collected through a questionnaire enquiring about learner expectations at the outset of the project and a final survey seeking detailed information about learner satisfaction in order to implement improvements in subsequent projects. In-depth analysis of the data shed light on the perceived benefits and challenges of the intercultural telecollaboration project. There was evidence that the students were very open-minded about discussing multifaceted intercultural issues and very positive toward collaborating with fellow students from a different cultural background. The surveys also suggest that the learners’ expected benefits aligned with their stated benefits after carrying out the project, which led us to believe that possible frustrations and communication breakdowns had been kept to a minimum.
PPARα and PPARγ as main regulators of fatty acid metabolism
Authors: Kucharski Mirosław , Kaczor Urszula
Published: October 2018

PPARα and PPARγ nuclear receptors are transcription factors responsible for regulating the expression of lipid, carbohydrate and protein metabolism genes. PPAR receptors are distinguished by their capability to efficiently bind a number of synthetic or natural ligands. Genes encoding PPARα and PPARγ are expressed in many tissues and organs, including in the adipose tissue. Changes in the expression of these genes are dependent on many factors, such as the impact of other genes and fatty acids. PPARα and PPARγ proteins are - due to their neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as the key role they play in lipid metabolism ‒ important for human health. This is especially true with regards to neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease or those accompanied by a metabolic syndrome ‒ type II diabetes, insulin resistance, obesity and hypertension.

Temperature impact on delayed fracture
of creep-resistant steels welds
Authors: Skulskyi V. , Nimko M.
Published: October 2018

Purpose: Phenomenon of delayed fracture (or cold cracks formation) of hardenable
steels weldments had been widely investigated. But temperature dependence of cracking
susceptibility remained discussable, because there was no strict vision of temperature
border for the cracking risk appearance, when joints are cooling after welding completion.
The proposed paper aimed at assessment of dangerous temperature range at which
delayed fracture, mainly for the steels with martensite formation, becomes most probable.
Design/methodology/approach: The “Implant” test, conducted under isothermal
conditions at the temperatures selected within the range from 160 to 20°C on cooling of the
completed test weld joint, was used. Basing on the obtained thermokinetic characteristics of
the cracking, the activation energy E of the fracture process was calculated. Comparing of
the found E values with the close values of E for the known processes developing in steels,
the explanation of the revealed cracking behaviour at different temperatures was proposed.
Findings: Delayed cracking of the martensitic weld joints has started to manifest at the
temperatures lower than 140°C. Dependence of the cracking period from the temperature
is described by C-type curve with the minimum cracking duration within 80-100°C. Using
the approach of the activation energy assessment for different temperature ranges (140 to
100°C and 80 to 20°C), the effect of the diffusible hydrogen and a martensite decay on the
cracking thermokinetics was considered.
Research limitations/implications: Additional investigations of the fine microstructure
after different stages of the low-temperature martensite decay could be necessary for
deepening understanding of a role of this process in the low-temperature heterogeneity
formation and cracking susceptibility.
Practical implications: Results widen data on weldability of actual for industry steels and
give a ground for consideration of the technological approaches for their welding.
Originality/value: Temperature border of the cold cracking risk is specified for the
weldments of some commercial steels.

Lecturas críticas de las nuevas propuestas de economía alternativa: ¿Qué hay de nuevo en lo nuevo?
Authors: Lozano J. Félix , Raufflet Emmanuel , González Esteban Elsa
Published: October 2018

El cuestionamiento del sistema capitalista de mercado tiene una larga trayectoria, pero en las últimas décadas se han incrementado las propuestas que pretenden ofrecer alternativas a un sistema de mercado que favorece a los más aventajados e incrementa la desigualdad (Piketty 2014; Stiglitz 2013). Estas propuestas han surgido desde la experiencia de que el modelo actual dominante de capitalismo consumista es insostenible medioambientalmente e injusto socialmente.
Una crítica a la modernidad a partir de la “inutilidad” del juego. El imperativo metanoético de Sloterdijk y lo lúdico
Authors: Gimeno Monfort Xavier , Lopez Frías Francisco Javier
Published: October 2018

En este artículo se analiza el concepto de imperativo metanoético que Peter Sloterdijk presenta en ¡Has de cambiar tu vida! Nuestro objetivo es iluminar la naturaleza de lo que, en trabajos anteriores, hemos denominado -a raíz de la obra de Bernard Suits-: razón lúdica. Para ello, primero, expondremos y analizaremos el sentido del imperativo metanoético en Sloterdijk, así como los elementos principales de su razón ascética. Segundo, mostraremos cómo ambos son consecuencia del análisis ontológico de corte heideggeriano en la que Sloterdijk basa su propuesta de filosofía moral. Tercero, presentaremos en términos sloterdijkianos tanto el análisis ontológico de Suits, como el posible imperativo metanoético que se desprendería de su razón lúdica. Por último, centrándonos en el papel que Sloterdijk otorga a la figura del «ocioso», mostraremos las posibles conexiones entre Suits y Sloterdijk. Mostraremos la relación que existe entre los imperativos lúdicos y ascéticos donde, además, el acto «jugar» recibe un papel central en la «respuesta a la pregunta por el ser». In this article, we analyze Peter Sloterdijk’s concept of “metanoethical imperative” in You Must Change Your Life. Our goal is to shed light on what, by drawing on Bernard Suits, we call “ludic reason.” To do so, we will present and examine in depth the meaning of Sloterdijk’s metanoethical imperative, as well as the main features of his concept of “askesis.” Second, we will argue that both concepts are the result of the Heideggerian ontological principles underlying Sloterdijk’s moral philosophy. Third, we will provide a “Sloterdijkean” interpretation of Suits’ account of games by focusing on the metanoethical imperative that could be derived from the notion of the ludic reason. To conclude, we will focus on the role that the figure of the “Good-for-Nothing” plays in Sloterdijk’s account, showing connections between Suits’ and Sloterdijk’s approaches. We will argue that, in the philosophical approaches of both philosophers, the idea of game playing is closely tied to the “question on Being.”
Ethics and Tourism: In dialogue with Dean MacCannell
Authors: López González José Luis
Published: October 2018

For several decades, tourism has mainly been identified as an activity that helps people escape their everyday routines, contributes to understanding between cultures, and promotes economic wellbeing. These assumptions have been questioned in both the public sphere and academic research, however. In this context, tourism research is increasingly drawing on ethical frameworks to support its criticism of tourism. Some of the most outstanding research on this issue is by Dean MacCannell, Emeritus Professor at the University of California at Davis and author of one of the seminal works of the social theory of tourism: The Tourist: A New Theory of the Leisure Class (1976). MacCannell examines the moral and ethical aspects of tourism in all his writing, but they are the focal point of his book The Ethics of Sightseeing (2011), in which he identifies the tourists’ responsibility to mediate between their understanding of their own pleasure and the ethical repercussions of the late modern imperative, “Enjoy!”. During the Touriscape congress in Malaga, Spain, in February 2018, MacCannell talked about ethics and tourism with José Luis López, who prepared this interview for Recerca.
Emprendimiento social, ¿alternativa o continuidad a las consecuencias del sistema neoliberal al que busca responder?
Authors: Portales Luis
Published: October 2018

El emprendimiento social es visualizado como alternativa para responder a las consecuencias que ha generado el neoliberalismo a nivel mundial. La revisión del concepto, desde una perspectiva axiológica y pragmática, por parte de algunos autores, han demostrado que el emprendimiento social, lejos de ser una alternativa al neoliberalismo es una continuidad del mismo. El presente artículo estudia la relación que tiene el emprendimiento social y el neoliberalismo en función de los elementos ontológicos que lo conforman y las escuelas de pensamiento sobre las que se ha implementado. El resultado muestra las paradojas que presenta el concepto a nivel ontológico, y cómo los emprendimientos sociales desarrollados desde la escuela de Economía Social tienen una mayor capacidad de generar una ruptura con el sistema e ideología neoliberal; mientras que los emprendimientos desarrollados bajo la escuela de innovación social, tienden a generar una continuidad al neoliberalismo.Social entrepreneurship is visualized as an alternative to respond to the consequences generated by neoliberalism worldwide. The review of the concept, from an axiological and practical perspective by several authors, has shown that social entrepreneurship is an alternative to neoliberalism. This article studies the relationship between social entrepreneurship and neoliberalism regarding the ontological elements that make it up and the schools of thought on which it has implemented. The result shows the paradoxes that present the concept at the ontological level, and how the enterprises of the School of Economics have a higher capacity to generate a rupture with the neoliberal system and ideology; while entrepreneurship under the school of social innovation tends to create a continuity to neoliberalism.

Little literature has looked at the role of universities promoting and supporting grassroots social innovations. This paper addresses this gap by examining how universities contribute to social innovation in Colombia. In seeking to develop a good understanding of how universities can contribute to the development of social innovation niches, we draw upon the Strategic Niche Management theory and the three areas of activity which constitute effective niche-building: social networks, expectations and visions and learning. We explore this phenomenon with the Parque Científico de Innovación Social, founded by Uniminuto University in 2012, using video case study research methodology. Findings suggest the important role played by Uniminuto University influencing the current higher education system regime by enhancing the development of social innovation niches. These results have implications for advancing the debate on the role of higher education institutions in contributing to the development of social innovation processes.Poca literatura ha analizado el papel de las universidades promoviendo y apoyando las innovaciones sociales de base. Este documento aborda esta brecha al examinar cómo las universidades contribuyen a la innovación social en Colombia. Al tratar de desarrollar una buena comprensión de cómo las universidades pueden contribuir al desarrollo de nichos de innovación social, recurrimos a la teoría de Gestión Estratégica de Nichos y las tres áreas de actividad que constituyen la creación efectiva de nichos: redes sociales, expectativas y visiones y aprendizaje. Exploramos este fenómeno con el Parque Científico de Innovación Social, fundado por la Universidad de Uniminuto en 2012, utilizando la metodología de investigación de estudios de casos de video. Los hallazgos sugieren el importante papel desempeñado por la Universidad de Uniminuto que influye en el régimen actual del sistema de educación superior al mejorar el desarrollo de nichos de innovación social. Estos resultados tienen implicaciones para avanzar en el debate sobre el papel de las instituciones de educación superior en la contribución al desarrollo de los procesos de innovación social.
Fonamentació teòrica del model de l'Economia del Bé Comú des de la perspectiva organitzativa
Authors: Sanchis-Palacio Joan Ramon , Campos-Climent Vanessa
Published: October 2018

La Economía del Bien Común (EBC) representa un modelo que, sin llegar a poner en cuestión la libertad de mercado, propone una visión más humana de la economía a través del bien común y la cooperación. Se trata de un modelo global e integral que se está desarrollando especialmente en el campo de la microeconomía. El objetivo de este trabajo es, una vez identificadas las características básicas del modelo del EBC, justificar sus fundamentos teóricos desde el punto de vista organizativo, en particular, desde la teoría de los stakeholders. El Balance del Bien Común, como herramienta que sirve para implementar el modelo de la EBC, utilitza una matriz de doble entrada, que sirve para medir la aportación de las empresas en la consecución de los principios de los derechos humanos a través de su relación con los stakeholders.The Economy of the Common Good ecb represents a model that, without questioning market freedom, proposes a more humane vision of the economy, through the common good and cooperation. It is a global and comprehensive model that is being developed above all in the field of microeconomics. The objective of the work is, after identifying the basic characteristics of the ecb model, to justify its theoretical foundations from the organizational point of view, in particular, from Stakeholders’ Theory. The Balance of the Common Good, as a tool that serves to implement the ecb model, uses a double entry matrix, which serves to measure the contribution of companies to the achievement of human rights principles through their relationship with the stakeholders.
