Analysis of Factors Affecting Health Tourism Performance Using Fuzzy DEMATEL Method
Authors: MERDİVENCİ Fahriye , KARAKAŞ Hatice
Published: December 2020

In health tourism, an important sub-branch of the tourism sector, the increase in the number of organizations in the service industry in response to increasing demand has led institutions to transform in line with global standards to gain a competitive advantage. Today, due to the steady increase in its share in the sector, it is necessary to establish an assessment infrastructure to measure health tourism performance. This study suggests an infrastructure for determining the factors affecting health tourism. There is no widely accepted standard assessment methodology in determining criteria affecting tourism performance in the literature. However, with a standard assessment structure, it can be possible to rank the achievement of the organizations serving health tourism. Therefore, the Fuzzy DEMATEL method is used as a multi-criteria decision-making approach based on fuzzy logic to determine the factors affecting health tourism performance. This study contributes to the literature in terms of presenting the criteria for the assessment of the health tourism performance in a standard structure for researchers, and in which dimensions the organizations should consider their performance.
Multicultural Values in the Noble Quran and the Prophet Muhammad’s (S) Sunnah
(The Prophet's tradition)
Authors: NURULLAH Haji Fuad
Published: December 2020

As we know, multiculturalism denotes a society in which many different cultures co
exist. It is a concept aimed at the preservation and development of the cultural
diversity of people of different ethnicities and faiths in any country and in the world
as a whole and the ethnocultural integration of ethnic minorities. As a crossroads of
different civilisations, our ancient homeland Azerbaijan has, for centuries, been
known as a country with an established atmosphere of ethnocultural diversity where
representatives of different ethnic groups and faiths have lived in an environment of
peace, tranquillity and mutual understanding. Multiculturalism and tolerance have
historically been a way of life of Azerbaijanis, and today it has become a way of life of
every citizen of the Azerbaijani state regardless of their national identity, language or
religion. The rich multicultural past of the Azerbaijani people has survived not only
in today’s tolerant lifestyle of our people, but also in the literary-artistic, scientificphilosophical and political-legal sources and documents created by our people.
In the broad sense, the essence of multiculturalism is that the state does not
discriminate against individuals or social groups representing different and unique
cultures, does not regard any of them superior or inferior to the others, and grants
equal rights to representatives of all cultures.
Programa Sócio Torcedor e a segregação social dos espaços nos estádios de futebol
Authors: Carvalho Junior José Roberto Abreu de , Teixeira Lusvanio Carlos , Xavier Wescley Silva
Published: December 2020

Este ensaio teve como objetivo refletir sobre como o Programa Sócio Torcedor, instrumento de obtenção de receitas utilizado por muitos clubes de futebol, tem potencial para segregar socialmente os espaços dos estádios de futebol ao estabelecer preferências para alguns torcedores em detrimento dos demais. No Brasil, essa segregação pode ser ainda mais impactante do que em outros contextos em virtude da forte desigualdade socioeconômica existente no país. Percebeu-se que o processo de modernização do futebol implicou em diversas mudanças nesse meio, desde alterações estruturais nos estádios à mercantilização e elitização desse esporte, que passou a ser acessado principalmente por pessoas com maior renda, alterando os sentidos e as formas de se torcer. A literatura acerca desse tema visualiza o Programa Sócio Torcedor como um relevante instrumento de marketing esportivo, mas também é possível perceber movimentos de resistência por parte de torcedores no Brasil e no mundo. Este ensaio chama a atenção de gestores atuantes no futebol para que considerem a elitização do esporte gerada pela utilização desse instrumento, tendo em vista que o futebol é um dos elementos mais marcantes da cultura brasileira.
Comodificação dos climas urbanos e criação de injustiças socioclimáticas em Santiago do Chile
Authors: Romero Hugo , Mendes Flávio Henrique
Published: December 2020

Santiago do Chile é um exemplo de concentração de poder político, atividades econômicas e problemas socioambientais na América Latina. Por meio da análise de imagens de satélite e simulações microclimáticas utilizando o modelo ENVI-met, o objetivo foi analisar as transformações dos usos e cobertura do solo associadas à sua recente urbanização à escala das Zonas Climáticas Locais e seus atributos térmicos e ventilação, em duas comunas com desenhos distintos: Estación Central, de classe média baixa com os chamados “guetos verticais”, e Vitacura, de classe alta com o chamado “Sanhattan”. Enquanto o crescimento urbano desordenado com edifícios de 100 m de altura em Estación Central modificou adversamente o clima urbano, aumentando os pontos de calor, reduzindo a umidade e dificultando a ventilação, em Vitacura os edifícios coexistem em harmonia com a infraestrutura verde, avenidas largas e arborização.
Corona Virus (COVID19) Risk Groups: Scrutinizing the Death Cases Reported in South Korea
Authors: Jeon Sangwoo
Published: December 2020

Introduction: The outbreak of COVID19 has led to a global health and economic crisis. Although no approved treatment exists to date, vaccine prototypes, antiviral medication, preventive measures, and treatment strategies are studied by scientists and pharmaceutical companies worldwide. The objective of this paper is to examine the COVID19 death cases in South Korea in order to identify the distinct features of the deceased, such as sex, age, underlying medical conditions, which can be targeted when searching for a COVID19 treatment strategy. Material and Methods: Data regarding sex, age, and underlying conditions of the deceased and current cases was obtained from South Korea’s Centers for Disease Control and the Korean Statistical Information Service (data retrieved on May 21, 2020). The data were examined to identify any trends between the parameters using direct statistical analysis. Personal variables of COVID19 patients were studied, such as their sex, age, and preexisting health conditions. The data were analyzed in terms of possible factors leading to COVID19 complications and resulting in patients' deaths.Results: As of May 21, 2020, 11142 confirmed cases and 264 deaths were reported in South Korea. Sex has not had an impact on the death rate, but it directly correlates with age. No deaths were reported for cases of individuals under 30 years old, and only five deaths were reported between the ages of 30 and 50. Additionally, 98.5 % of victims suffered from an underlying condition. The primary underlying condition in deceased cases was related to circulatory system disorders. The results of the statistical analysis were further used to devise a classification of COVID19 risk factors. It consists of three categories ranging from low to high-risk levels. Conclusion: Treatment targeted at patients over 60 years old and with circulatory system disorders can reduce the death rate of COVID19 infected patients in South Korea.

Published: December 2020

Ecologization of agricultural production and at the same time increasing of its efficiency is possible through the use of bacterial preparations. In long-term field experiments of 2016-2019 valuable characters of plant-microbial populations of red fescue (Festuca rubra L) variety Severnaya 82 of lawn and pasture use were studied after re-inoculation of seeds, obtained from the parent populations, which were also developed after inoculation with rhizosphere microorganisms on the basis of preparations of Mobiline 880, Azorizin 8, Azorizin 6, Flavobacterin, Agrofil and Rizoagrin. In the sowing experiment of 2016, plants of the first year of growth from the population with Mobilin 880 significantly exceeded in height (82 cm) the control plants without seed inoculation (77 cm, LSD05 = 3.5). In the experiment of 2017, the plants of all created plant-microbial populations of the second year of growth exceeded in height (48-50 см) the control variant plants (45 cm, LSD05 = 2.3). According to the yield of green mass in the 2016 experiment, populations of red fescue with Mobilin 880 and Rhizoagrin were distinguished (by 1.1 t/ha with yield in the control of 0.80 t/ha, LSD05 =0.23). The prolongation of the effect of Flavobacteria in the experiment has not been observed. Plant-microbial populations with Azorizin 8 and Mobilin 808 proved to be promision according to the character of high seed yield: in the third generation, they had higher seed productivity (0.144 и 0.152 t/ha, respectively) compared to the control without inoculation (0.076 t/ha, LSD05 = 0.064). To create highly productive plant-microbial populations of red fescue seeds, it is necessary to search among highly productive parent populations inoculated with associative symbionts, followed by inoculation of daughter populations with the same bacterial preparations.

Published: December 2020

The article presents the results of scientific research for 2014-2019 on the reaction of early-maturing fiber flax varieties (Linum usitatissimum L.) of the Pskov selection Peresvet, Kvartet, Voskhod and Dobrynya to growing conditions: sowing time, seeding rates (16, 18, 20, 22, 24 million pieces of germinating seeds per 1 ha), doses of nitrogen fertilizers (0, 15, 30, 45 kg of active ingredient (a. i.) per hectare. The hydrothermal coefficient (GTC) for the growing season varied from 0.98 to 1.94. The optimal seeding rate for fiber flax of the Peresvet variety is 22 million pcs /ha, and for the Kvartet variety − 20 million pcs /ha. With these seeding rates the yield of flax fiber was 21.9-20.6 hundred kilograms (centners) per hectare, respectively, that significantly exceeded the yield of fiber with the minimum seeding rate of 1,0-1.7 hkg/ha, respectively, with LSD05 = 0.7-0.9 hkg/ha. The maximum yield of seeds in both varieties was obtained at the minimum seeding rate. The optimal sowing period for the Peresvet variety was the third period (May 8-17th, 2014-2016) and the second period for the Kvartet variety (May 11-20th, 2017-2019). The yield of flax fiber for these varieties significantly exceeded the 1stsowing period by 0.7-2.3 hkg/ha, respectively (LSD05 = 0.6-0.8 hkg/ha ) and amounted to 23.0-21.1 hkg/ha , that of seeds – 9.8-9.1 hkg/ha. The optimal nitrogen doses for R40K60 background are for Voskhod and Kvartet varieties 15 kg a. i./ha, and for the Dobrynya and Peresvet varieties − 30 kg a. i./ha. The yield of flax fiber for them exceeded the control by 1.5-1.3 hkg/ha, respectively (LSD05 = 0.6-0.8 hkg/ha) and 2.7-2.5 hkg/ha (LSD05 = 1,0-0.9 hkg/ha). The payback of 1 kg of nitrogen by flax fiber increase in all varieties was the highest with the minimum dose of N15. Among the varieties, it ranged from 8 to 12.7 kg/kg. The specific removal of food elements per 1 ton of flax straw and flax fiber recommended for use in determining the doses of mineral fertilizers for the planned yield of flax fiber, has been determined.

Published: December 2020

The qualitative peculiarity of the existing land market in rural areas requires constant assessment of both the mechanisms that control its development and the direction of changes in its segments. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to analyze the territorial features of the development of the agricultural land market in modern conditions of the implementation of the import substitution policy. The research was carried out across the constituent entities of the Russian Federation of the Northwestern Federal District (NWFD) and in more detail on the example of the municipal districts of the Leningrad region using data from Rosstat, Rosreestr, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation and other sources. Statistical methods of information processing were used. Based on the analysis of the dynamics of changes in the size of the cultivated areas, it was concluded that there were unfavorable tendencies as to the demand for arable land in the conditions of the Northwestern Federal District. Due to it, the reduction in the area under crops occurs in regions with more favorable conditions for agricultural activities. As the result, the growth in the number of transactions for the sale and purchase of agricultural land in the regions of the Northwestern Federal District is not sustainable. On the example of the municipal districts of the Leningrad region, the features of the primary and secondary market for agricultural land were revealed: the supply of land plots exceeds demand and is localized in the suburban area, such types of land turnover as the purchase and sale and lease of land plots have limited development. Depending on the location and other rental characteristics, the level of land prices, even within the boundaries of one municipal district, varies from 2.5 to 15 times. It has been established that the development of subsystems of market turnover of agricultural land is closely related to the conditions and results of economic activity in rural areas.

En los últimos tiempos hemos sido testigos de un interés creciente por los estudios sobre la infancia vulnerada dentro de las ciencias sociales. Las obras de Buenaventura Delgado y Philippe Ariès, entre otros, sirvieron a la generación siguiente de investigadores a tomar en cuenta una serie de precauciones fundamentales. La primera de ellas, tenía que ver con los significados y comprensiones dispares en torno a la infancia, atendiendo al contexto histórico y social específico. Por ello, para el Antiguo Régimen es fundamental acudir a las categorías propias que se utilizaron en su tiempo, como forma de evitar caer en anacronismos históricos. Por otro lado, otra de estas precauciones estuvo relacionada con el hecho mismo del abandono de menores, una realidad que operaba desde largo tiempo, pero a la que la sociedad tardomedieval le dio un tratamiento específico…

Impact of Different Levels of Schooling on Development of Students’ Social Attitudes
Authors: Arshad Shamas , Zaman Sher
Published: December 2020

AbstractOne of the expectations of society from schooling is to develop students’ prosocial behaviors having roots in their knowledge, beliefs and social attitudes.  But the assessment procedures related to students’ social thinking and attitudes are generally missing in the instructional system.  The study, therefore, to fill the gap diagnosed as whether schooling offered something that developed students’ social attitudes, a prerequisite of prosocial behaviors. Hence, the preset empirical investigation explored the impact of schooling on the development of students’ social attitudes.  A sample from 16 schools of 480 students was taken, for which a ‘social attitude scale’, having four subscales, i.e., a) concern for others’ welfare, b) respect for laws, c) respect for others’ property and d) sensitivity to social issues, was developed to collect data.  Results of data analysis revealed that the overall impact of different levels of schooling for upward positive increase in students’ social attitude was negligible, although elementary schooling contributed more, as compared to secondary level.  Similarly public sector schooling across three stages had more impact on students’ social attitudes as compared to private sector schools.Keywords: Schools, Social attitudes, Prosocial and antisocial behaviors, Public and                   Private schooling
Pedagogical multilevel system and scheme for managing the quality of training results for athletes in the training of instructors-methodologists in alpine skiing in Russia
Authors: Danilin Viktor , Baykovsky Yuri
Published: December 2020

Currently, there are about 200 ski resorts in Russia from Smolensk to Chukotka, which are located both in the low mountains (GC "Tyagacheva", "Sarochany", etc.), and in the middle mountains ("Abzakovo", "Bannoe Lake", etc. ) and highlands (regions of the Elbrus region, Dombay, Krasnaya Polyana, etc.). More than six million Russians go downhill skiing and snowboarding every year. Over the years, the quality of sports equipment and track equipment has changed significantly, which has led to an increase in speeds, an increase in injuries and a change in teaching methods. Currently, a large number of people die and are seriously injured at ski resorts every year due to the low quality of training in safe skiing, lack of control over the work of instructors, and the irresponsible attitude of the holders of ski resorts to the safety of providing services on the ski slopes.

Reengineering of business processes of a trucking company
Authors: Sushkov N.
Published: December 2020

As part of the domestic policy pursued in our country, state support for business contributes to the penetration of innovative activities into industrial enterprises. But, as practice shows, for an enterprise this is not a guarantee of increasing efficiency in the economic and social environment, despite the fact that the innovative projects being implemented have high potential. Often this is due to the fact that reengineering of business processes is not carried out or is not carried out effectively when introducing innovations. Innovations are superimposed on an unadopted and unprepared system of business processes, as a result of which a negative result is obtained.
The reasons for the development of such events at the enterprise are the following aspects:
an ambiguous understanding of the theoretical foundations of business process reengineering, innovation and innovation, and their features;
the lack of an algorithm that allows efficient and effective reengineering of business processes when introducing innovations.
In most organizations, as a rule, leaders use an intuitive approach when reengineering business processes and, as a result, this does not always end with success.
Thus, there is a certain discrepancy between the need of economic agents for effective methods of reengineering business processes when introducing innovative technologies and an insufficient level of theoretical study of this issue. Also, issues of reengineering of business processes and issues of innovation, innovation in an unrelated context, separately relative to each other, are considered and studied.
Pressure compensation systems in the primary circuit of a nuclear power plant with a pressurized water reactor
Authors: Gorbatov S. , Polunichev V.
Published: December 2020

A pressure compensator is a technical pressure vessel with a special design that compensates for changes in the volume of water in a closed loop when it is heated. It is a design feature of two-circuit reactors with pressurized water as a coolant (including heavy water reactors) used at nuclear power plants, nuclear submarines and ships and is usually considered as part of a technological system that maintains the pressure in the primary circuit in stationary modes and pressure deviations in transient and emergency modes of the reactor plant.
The pressure compensator is at the same time a system for providing the required pressure and compensating for changes in the volume of the coolant in the primary circuit, therefore it has a double name - in technical documentation and literature it can be called both a pressure compensator and a volume compensator.

Terrorism today is one of the main threats to human civilization. In recent years, international terror has proved its extreme cruelty, its readiness to stop at nothing in order to achieve its goals. As a result of committing terrorist acts, innocent people, children, women and old people suffer. For a terrorist, human life has no value. With the modern variety of potentially dangerous objects and their functional orientation, it is impossible to ensure safety with standard solutions, using uniform strategies, tactical schemes and techniques, and the same type of equipment. If we simply follow the path of ensuring the maximum level of safety, it may turn out that at most facilities the cost of the applied technological means will be many times greater than the cost of the technological equipment of the facility and even the facility itself. Hence, it follows that in order to create effective physical protection systems or to effectively modernize existing physical protection systems, it is necessary to analyze these systems, to identify the weakest and most protected places that need strengthening. At the same time, an important difference must be taken into account between physical protection systems and other safety systems used to protect against natural disasters (such as earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, etc.) and against abnormal operating conditions (such as fire, malfunctions in electrical equipment, etc.). Unlike human violators, security breaches are subject to strict laws and do not happen without reason. For example, the fire of a fire can only burn while there is fuel and oxygen. If one of these elements is removed, the fire will go out. Also, a fire cannot decide where and when it will occur, and how it will progress. Conversely, the human adversary (intruder) has the ability to decide whether to attack, when and how to attack, can adjust to the measures of the physical protection system to counter it, and possibly even outwit and defeat them. All this introduces a significant element of uncertainty into the process of analyzing and evaluating the effectiveness of the physical protection system. Taking into account the above, the task of developing a methodological approach to risk assessment when committing a terrorist attack using physical protection systems, taking into account the optimization of calculations of cost-intensive algorithms in real time, becomes more and more urgent. In this article, the authors attempt to create this approach.
Monitoring, predicting the development and parrying of certain threats for complex distributed systems based on data analysis of multi-sensor systems

Published: December 2020

With the advent of new sources and technologies for obtaining data on the location and mutual location of objects and systems in general, as well as their integration into real – time control methods and algorithms, conditions have been created for more modern and high-quality use of computer technologies in the management of complex distributed systems (SRS). The components of such SRS are themselves complex distributed systems and have (or can potentially have), among other things, a negative impact on each other, that is, they represent or form a threat to each other. One of the most urgent tasks of our time is to develop various, usually highly computerized, tools and methods for parrying threats based on monitoring and forecasting the development of processes (including physical ones) that form the basis of these threats. This article discusses the problem of parrying one of the types of threats – flood. The issues of using various types of information coming from various sources – sensors for monitoring and forecasting the water level and associated flooding of the corresponding territories are considered. The system of using real-time automatically measured SRS parameters and their further application for digital decision support for parrying threats is a complex highly computerized technical system belonging to the class of the Internet of things. At the same time, it is one of the digital subsystems of the SRS that have a positive impact on other components of the SRS as a whole. All this information comes from various (technically and departmental) heterogeneous sources, so for its rapid and high-quality storage and use for monitoring, forecasting and parrying threats to the SRS, it needs specialized methods of analysis, structuring and distributed storage.

L'Amant Double Filminde Öteki Mekân Temsili Olarak Heterotopya
Authors: SEKMEN Muhsine
Published: December 2020

Modern yaşama geçiş ile birlikte iktidar ve özne ilişkisinin biyo-iktidar ile şekillendiğini düşünen Michel Foucault, bireyi sınırlandıran bu yapıdan kurtulmanın bir yolu olarak heterotopya kuramını geliştirmiştir. Biyo-iktidar içten gelen bir buyruk olarak iktidarın istediği normal insanı tanımlamaktadır. Modern kent hayatı, bireye iş yaşamı içerisinde iktidara uygun bir yaşam biçimi sunarken, bu kurallara aykırı davranan bireyler ise toplumdan uzaklaşmak isteyerek kendilerine yeni mekânlar oluşturmaya çalışmaktadır. Bu kapsamda Foucault yirminci yüzyılda bireylerin yaşadıkları kaygının temelinde mekân fikri olduğunu savunurken yeni mekânlar oluşturma fikrini yani heterotopyayı öne çıkarmak istemektedir.

Bu çalışma Foucault’nun heterotopya ve Stavrides’in eşik kuramını temel alarak François Ozon’un L'Amant Double filminde öteki mekan temsili olarak heterotopya alanlarını incelemektedir. L'Amant Double filminde dikkat çekici bir şekilde kullanılan heterotopya alanları çalışmanın örneklemi olarak seçilmesinde etkili olmuştur. Bu kapsamda sapma heterotopyaları olarak psikiyatri klinikleri, zaman heterotopyaları olarak müzeler, olmayan yer olarak ayna heterotopyası ve eşik mekânları olarak köprüler ve merdivenler filmde incelemeye alınan kategorilerdir. Bu çalışma, L'Amant Double filminde öteki mekân temsili olarak heterotopya alanlarına bakarken, heterotopyanın sinemada evrilen biçimlerini göstermeyi amaçlamaktadır.
Sinemada Felsefeden "Yararlanma" Yolları Üzerine Bir Tartışma
Authors: ÇAĞLIYAN Çağdaş E.
Published: December 2020

Sinema çalışmalarında incelediğimiz filmleri birtakım felsefi metinlerle ilişkiye sokarken büyük bir özen ve özveriyle hareket etmemiz gerekir. Çünkü bazı durumlarda görülebilmektedir ki, bu felsefi metinlerde ortaya konulmuş olan düşünceler, elimizdeki görsel malzemenin yaratılma sürecinde dikkate alınmış olsa da, asli içeriğinden uzaklaştırılmıştır. Üstelik daha da sakıncalı olanı, kimi filmlerde bu metinlerle ilişkilendirilebilecek bir imgeler yığınını kullanmanın amacı olguda apaçık görünen gerçekleri görünmez kılmak olabilir. Söz konusu filmler üzerine yapılan pek çok çalışmada ise, filmde felsefi bir düşüncenin çarpıtılma ve bozulmasına sessiz kalındığına tanık olmuşuzdur. Burada ise, yalnızca yönetmenin çıkarı kollanmaz; yönetmenin kendince gösterdiği ipuçlarından yola çıkıp kendisine işaret edilmiş olan metinlerle ilişkiye sokan eleştirmen de kendi çıkarını düşünerek hareket eder. Her iki taraf da -örtük biçimde de olsa- derin bir düşünce dile getirdikleri iddiasındadır ama bu düşüncelerin olgunun gerçekliğiyle, yaşamın kendisiyle bağı kopmuştur.

Bu bağlamda, çalışmamızda, birtakım felsefi metinlerin yalnızca tek bir boyutuyla ele alındığını ve böylece eğilip büküldüğünü gözlemleyebileceğimiz bazı film örneklerini inceleyeceğiz. İnceleyeceğimiz örnekler, filmlerinin ardında hep derin bir anlamın aranmasının artık bir alışkanlığa dönüştüğü Zeki Demirkubuz ve Reha Erdem’e ait olacaktır. Onların filmlerinde gözlemleyebileceğimiz, insanın kötücüllüğüne, usdışı ve içgüdüsel bir varlık oluşuna ilişkin vurguya, söz konusu filmlerin ilişkilendirildiği metinlerde ne şekilde yer verildiğini göz önünde bulundurmamız önemlidir. Çünkü insanı salt aşağılık yönleriyle ele almak ve bunda bir derinlik bulmak, sonunda insanın uğradığı haksızlığın meşrulaştırılmasına zemin hazırlar. Kendimizde derinlik gördüğümüz böyle bir an, egemenlerin çıkarlarıyla da örtüştüğümüz andır.

Bir düşüncenin yalnızca tek bir yanını vurgulamak, bu düşüncenin özsel yanından ziyade yalnızca işimize gelen yanını dikkate aldığımıza ilişkin bir kuşku doğuracaktır. Bu kuşkuyu savuşturacak olan ise, gerek görsel malzemenin oluşturulmasında gerekse bu malzemenin yorumlanmasında tümüyle dürüst bir doğrultuda hareket etmek olacaktır. Bu dürüstlük, bizim çıkarımıza aykırı olabilir ama geçerliliği daha kesindir.

Bu çalışmanın amacı, özgün ve sinemaya özgü bir kavram olarak ileri sürülen ‘sinedigma’nın, zihinsel gerçeklik algısında ne kadar etkili olduğuna ve bu etkinin nasıl toplumsal hâle gelebildiğine dair düşünce üretme çabasıdır. Bu amacı ortaya koymak adına, çalışma literatür taramasını merkeze alarak kuramsal bir eksene yerleştirilmiştir. Bu eksen dâhilinde, öncelikle gerçeklik ve sinema arasındaki ilişkiye değinilmiş, gerçeklikle ilişkisi açısından sinedigma kavramının tam olarak neyi ifade ettiği ve zihinsel gerçeklikler üzerindeki etkisinin nasıl olduğu açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. Daha sonra sinedigmaların toplumsal gerçeklik üzerindeki etkisi tartışılarak, kültürel oluşumda ne tür bir rolü olabileceğine dair düşünceler ortaya koyulmuştur. Bu düşüncelerin serimlenmesinde, küresel dolaşıma ve etkiye sahip olan Hollywood filmleri temele alınmıştır. Sonuç olarak, özellikle Hollywood sinedigmalarının her geçen gün daha da evrenselleşerek hem bireysel hem de toplumsal gerçeklikler üretebildiği savunulmuştur.
BHARATIYA (INDIAN) THEORY OF MANAGEMENT STYLES – PART I
Authors: Puri Vivek
Published: December 2020

Amongst various definitions of Management, one of them declares it as the activity of controlling something, or of using or dealing with something in a way that is effective. Management style refers to a distinctive manner or custom of behaving or conducting oneself. In the field of management, the challenge of any study is the absence of a single conclusive solution to a management problem. There exists a perennial need to identify robust & practical management styles that help in mastering the art of management. Theoretically, there could possibly be as many styles as the number of managers. It is evident that each style as enunciated by any one school of thought excludes some dimensions of management which are then captured in other styles by another school of thought. This paper aims at identifying, codifying, sequencing, and articulating various Management Styles based on Ancient Indian Wisdom. Using Qualitative Data Analysis methodology & applying the Grounded Theory Approach, based on both contemporary thought as well as the Guna (Nature) theory, given in the ancient Indian texts, this paper evolves six universal management styles, viz, Management by Self Transformation, Management by Good Counsel, Management by Time, Management by Luminous Unactivity, Management by Passionate Activity, and Management by Indolent Activity.

Published: December 2020

Diskusi merupakan suatu metode atau cara mengajar dengan cara memecahkan masalah yang dihadapi, baik atau lebih, dimana setiap peserta diskusi berhak mengajukan argumentasinya untuk memperkuat pendapatnya. Dalam perkuliahan, metode diskusi digunakan oleh dosen sebagai sarana komunikasi antar mahasiswa serta sebagai sarana membentuk pola fikir mahasiswa dengan menyajikan kasus-kasus yang belum pernah dialami mahasiswa. Dalam berdiskusi, mahasiswa dibagi dalam beberapa kelompok kemudian mempresentasikan hasil pembahasan kelompok mereka didepan kelas. Kebutuhan akan informasi dan referensi bagi mahasiswa menjadi kendala tersendiri setiap perguruan tinggi. Fasilitas perpustakaan yang kurang lengkap dan lebih menjurus ke program studi yang ada diperguruan tinggi menyebabkan mahasiswa kesulitan mendapatkan refensi data yang dibutuhkan. E-Discussion mengumpulkan mahasiswa dalam sebuah ruangan atau forum untuk memecahkan permasalahan. Mahasiswa dapat menentukan topik diskusi sehingga mahasiswa lain dapat memberikan masukkan maupun jawaban dari permasalahan tersebut. Rancangan E-Discussion ini menggunakan model UML yang terdiri dari usecase diagram, activity diagram, sequence diagram dan class diagram. Dengan menggunakan model UML pembangunan sistem ini akan memperudah  dalam proses pembuatannya dan setelah pembuatan sistem ini dapat membantu mahasiswa melakukan komonukasi dan belajar dengan mahasiswa lain di perguruan tinggi

Bu çalışma, Van kedilerinde humerus, radius ve ulna’nın bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) aracılığıyla üç boyutlu (3B) rekonstrüksiyonu yapmak, anatomik özelliklerinin belirlenmesini sağlamak, morfometrik ve volümetrik ölçülerini elde etmek ve bu ölçüm değerlerinin seksüel dimorfizm bakımından biyometrik farklılıklarının belirlenmesi amacıyla yapıldı. Çalışmada 8 dişi, 8 erkek olmak üzere 16 adet Van kedisi kullanıldı. Kediler dissosiyatif ajanlar (ketamine ve xylazine kombinasyonu) kullanılarak anesteziye alındı. Anestezi altındaki hayvanlar BT ile taranarak görüntüleri elde edildi. Elde edilen imajlar DICOM formatında işlenmek üzere iş istasyonuna aktarıldı ve 3B modelleme programı olan Syngo CT kullanılarak rekonstrüksiyon işlemi yapıldı. Daha sonra bu kemiklerin anatomik yapıları incelenerek, morfometrik ve volümetrik ölçümleri hesaplandı ve istatistiki analizi yapıldı. Yapılan çalışmadaki 3B rekonstrüksiyon görüntülerinde, humerus’un distal’inde hem foramen (for.) supracondylare hem de for. supratrochleare’ye rastlanıldı. Morfometrik analiz sonuçlarına bakıldığında, humerus, radius ve ulna’nın ölçüm değerleri bakımından erkek ve dişi Van kedileri arasında istatistiksel olarak önemli farklılıklar olduğu görüldü (P<0.05). Erkek ve dişi kedilere ait humerus, radius ve ulna’nın volüm ölçüm değerleri sırasıyla 11.22±0.86 cm3, 8.01±1.16 cm3; 3.85±0.57 cm3, 2.37±0.20 cm3; 26±0.66 cm3, 2.99±0.26 cm3 olarak tespit edildi. Erkek ve dişi kedilerin volümetrik ölçüm değerleri arasında görülen bu farklılıkların istatistiksel olarak anlamlı seviyede olduğu bulundu (P<0.05). Sonuç olarak, Van kedilerinde humerus, radius ve ulna’ya ait ölçüm parametrelerinin istatistiksel olarak cinsiyetler arasındaki farklılıkları BT ve 3B modelleme programı kullanılarak tespit edildi. Ayrıca çalışmadan elde edilen morfolojik bilgilerin ve osteometrik ölçüm değerlerinin bu kemiklerle ilgili anatomi eğitimi başta olmak üzere, patoloji, cerrahi, klinik uygulama ve zooarkeoloji gibi birçok alandaki çalışmalara faydalı olacağı düşünülmektedir.

Polyhexanid/polyhexamethylene biguanide is one of the most used wound antiseptics, with a high tissue compatibility and low cytotoxicity. In the present study, it was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of antimicrobial gel and spray that containing 0.1% PHMB, on wound healing in the treatment of patients who come to our clinic with chronic infected wound formation due to different reasons. The materials of the study consisted of 12 cats and 8 dogs with chronic, infected, ulcerative and suppurative wounds in various parts of the body, which were treated at the Surgery Clinic of SU Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. In the evaluation of the wound bed, the color, depth, shape, size of the wound, type and amount of the exudate, localization of the wound, and wound care conditions were taken into consideration. Surgical or mechanical superficial debridements of the wound were performed initially. Following this procedure, irrigation of the wound area was achieved with 0.9% saline. Protective dressing was applied to the wound area of all patients by applying antimicrobial (Actolind® w Gel, ACTO, Germany) spray containing 0.1% PHMB twice a day, and gel of the same product after 5 minutes. When the wound bed of the cases were evaluated on the 15th day, (100%) granulation and epithelization occurred in all the wounds of 19 patients, and only in one patient epithelization was observed. At the end of the 30th day, it was noted that granulation was completed in all cases except one case and passed to the epithelization stage. In all clinical cases, no complications were encountered during the treatment process. Clinical studies of polyhexanide/polyhexamethylene biguanide are promising. In this study, positive response was obtained in a short time. However, more experimentally controlled clinical and laboratory studies are required in order to improve 0.1% PHMB applications in chronic wound treatments.
Automation, APIs and the distributed labour of platform pedagogies in Google Classroom
Authors: Perrotta Carlo
Published: December 2020

Digital platforms have become central to interaction and participation in contemporary societies. New forms of ‘platformized education’ are rapidly proliferating across education systems, bringing logics of datafication, automation, surveillance, and interoperability into digitally mediated pedagogies. This article presents a conceptual framework and an original analysis of Google Classroom as an infrastructure for pedagogy. Its aim is to establish how Google configures new forms of pedagogic participation according to platform logics, concentrating on the cross-platform interoperability made possible by application programming interfaces (APIs). The analysis focuses on three components of the Google Classroom infrastructure and its configuration of pedagogic dynamics: Google as platform proprietor, setting the ‘rules’ of participation; the API which permits third-party integrations and data interoperability, thereby introducing automation and surveillance into pedagogic practices; and the emergence of new ‘divisions of labour’, as the working practices of school system administrators, teachers and guardians are shaped by the integrated infrastructure, while automated AI processes undertake the ‘reverse pedagogy’ of learning insights from the extraction of digital data. The article concludes with critical legal and practical ramifications of platform operators such as Google participating in education.

System Justification in Authoritarian Regimes: Theory and Evidence from Egypt
Authors: Nugent Elizabeth R.
Published: December 2020

System justification is a well-established socio-cognitive motivation that conditions individual beliefs and behaviors; however, research on its political effects has been limited to democratic contexts. In this paper, I theorize and explore system justification as an important component of political behavior in non-democratic contexts. The motivation and empirical foundation of the paper come from Egypt, a contemporary non-democratic regime that serves as an ideal case in which to test the effects of system justification. In a context of mounting economic and security crises, standard rationalist explanations fall short of explaining the persistent popularity of President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, even when measured through approaches that account for various social desirability and reporting biases. In an original, nationally-representative survey of 2,000 Egyptian citizens, I included a battery measuring system justification, as well as personality traits, political opinions, and political behaviors. Analyses reveal that respondents’ level of system justification predicts their support for Sisi and his regime, as well as their levels of participation in both pro- and anti-regime elections and protest. An embedded experiment also reveals that different kinds of threats activate system justification, strengthening its effect even as innate psychological traits remain constant. This paper expands the scope of a small but growing literature on psychological motivations for political behavior in authoritarian contexts. It builds on important conceptual developments by scholars of system justification to argue that, for many, supporting a non-democratic leader may satisfy central cognitive needs.
