Authors: Ivanytska Nataliia
Published: November 2023

The article examines the peculiarities of mutual education of pedagogical workers abroad. The forms of work on the formation of scientific and research competences of teachers in the European scientific school of the CERN nuclear research center are described. The directions of cooperation between CERN and the Minor Academy of Sciences through the operation of online schools for teachers, school and extra-curricular education workers have been determined. The directions of offline and online cooperation of representatives of the international scientific school in the United States of America at the Argonne National Laboratory and pedagogical workers of the national laboratory of the Minor Academy of Sciences are presented. For scientific schools, the peculiarities of the formation of scientific and research competences of teachers undergoing internship at the Argonne National Laboratory are indicated. The features of improving the qualifications of pedagogical workers in the countries of the European Union and the formation of their scientific and research competences for the purpose of further training of students in research activities in institutions of general secondary education are revealed. The reasons for the popularity of improving the qualifications of pedagogical workers in the countries of the European Union, which offer teachers to undergo internships on the basis of educational institutions for the purpose of forming their scientific and research competences, further training of students in research activities, are reflected. Innovations in the cooperation of the participants of the educational process in author's schools, scientific and pedagogical schools, which reflect the main world trends, are presented. In order to determine modern methods of formation of scientific and research competences of pedagogical workers, the methods of their professional growth, which are used in educational institutions abroad, were analyzed. Directions for improving the level of teaching of teachers in Austria due to the possibilities of the websites of educational institutions and the websites of the federal states have been identified. The principles of managing adult education, non-formal and informal education in Great Britain, Germany, and France are considered. Prospective directions for the organization of the activities of participants in the educational process have been determined.
Criminological portrait of the identity of the bribe-taker serving in the internal affairs bodies
Authors: Shirshanova Ekaterina Alekseevna
Published: November 2023

The object of the study is employees of the internal affairs bodies who commit a crime under Article 290 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation "Receiving a bribe". The author considers the concept of "personality" not only from the point of view of criminology, but also sociology, psychology, which allows to characterize the personality of a criminal not only from a legal point of view. The author examines the characteristics of the criminal's personality, studied by criminologists, as well as the characteristics that the author identifies based on the analysis of existing judicial practice. Special attention in the course of the study is paid to the identification of those characteristics that are inherent in an employee of the internal affairs bodies, as a special subject of the crime under consideration. The main contribution of the research conducted by the author is the compilation of a criminological portrait of the personality of a criminal - an employee of the internal affairs bodies committing a crime under Article 290 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation "Receiving a bribe". The criminological portrait of the criminal's personality is based on empirical data obtained by studying criminal cases in the district courts of the city of St. Petersburg, as well as other regions (using the electronic system of normative and legal acts "Sudakt") in the number of 107 criminal cases in the period from 2017 to 2022. The author confirms the theoretical hypotheses put forward by the author concerning certain characteristics of the criminal personality of an employee of the internal affairs bodies with concrete examples from the investigated criminal cases.
On the question of the goals and content of political education in modern Russia (based on the course “Fundamentals of Russian Statehood”)
Authors: Shirokova Marina Alekseevna
Published: November 2023

The subject of the study is Russian political education in the context of modern challenges. Using systemic and structural-functional approaches as methodological grounds, the author analyzes the goals and content of political education as structural elements of a unified system, subject to certain patterns in their functioning. In addition, the connection between the system of political education and the external environment, which is the socio-political practice of Russian society and the activities of state institutions, is considered. Factors that contribute to increasing the importance of political education in modern conditions are identified. The works of domestic and foreign researchers devoted to political education, as well as social and humanitarian knowledge in general, were used. Their recommendations are compared with the concept of the new academic discipline “Fundamentals of Russian Statehood,” introduced in Russian universities on September 1, 2023. The importance of the educational component in the educational process of a modern university is revealed, since the content of education includes not only a scientific, but also a value component. Conclusions are drawn about the need to form in the political consciousness and culture of students the values of citizenship and patriotism, as well as the formation of historical memory, historical consciousness, the idea of connection with their country, its past, present and future. The principle of narrowly professional training of specialists is criticized, since it contradicts not only the education of a citizen, but also the humanization of education, its orientation towards creating conditions for the realization of freedom and self-development of the person.
The common nature of ideology and mythology as an object of socio-philosophical analysis
Authors: Poluboyarinov Andrei Romanovich , Surova Elizaveta Dmitrievna
Published: November 2023

In this study, the authors examine mythology and ideology, their nature and origin, as well as the processes of their relationship. It is argued that ideology and mythology are in many ways interrelated phenomena, but not reducible to each other. Between them, not imperative, but rather complimentary relations are established, when they borrow certain elements and structures of each other in the process of interaction. The commonality of their nature and origin is manifested in the commonality of their properties and functions. Ideology has two sides: rational and irrational. The study shows that the irrational side of ideology is no less important and has no less influence on the final consumers of ideology than its rational and scientific elements. The irrational side is expressed in the mythical, unconscious, affective and imaginary. The scientific novelty of the study consists in revealing the essence of ideological myths, designating myths in the structure of ideology, establishing the "mythomotorics" of ideology, as well as highlighting the main properties of ideology and mythology: spontaneity and chaotic origin; unorganised and a-centric character; deployment in different social fields and dimensions; transmission of the same message through several codes; comprehensive and all-encompassing impact on end-users; lack of complete clarity and eluding analysis; ritual and repetition. It is concluded that the functional role of myths in ideology is that they fill the void between the ideological system and the social order in places where they do not correspond or openly contradict each other.
The Parable of the People's Faith and the Motive of the Crusade Fraternization in F.M. Dostoevsky's Novel "The Idiot".
Authors: Krinitsyn Aleksandr Borisovich
Published: November 2023

The author studied the episode of fraternization by Myshkin and Rogozhin in several aspects: 1) as a specific literary transformation of folk’s legends about fraternization with Christ 2) both as the central episode of the novel’s plot and a reference to its final scene 3) ideologically as a spiritual unit between the protagonists and the Russian folk 4) as a symbolic description of internal contradictions of the Russian national character. The episode is closely connected with the preceding talk about belief in God, in whose course Myshkin refusing to directly answer if he believed in God, tells about his meetings with “common people” and arrives at a conclusion about the chaotic and enigmatic depths of the folk’s consciousness. This was the only discourse about religious belief in the whole Dostoevsky’s Pentateuch preceding “the Brothers Karamazov” which makes Myshkin conclude that religious belief can be obtained from Russian folk as a bearer of religious mission, notwithstanding the dark abyss in his soul. The conclusions based on the analysis lets us rethink and reconstruct Myshkin’s ideological evolution in the whole novel. The article traces Dostoevsky’s reliance on folk legends about fraternization with Christ. It is a pioneering research as it points to parallels with the novel’s final in terms of symbolic gestures, paradoxically completing the rite of exchanging crosses in the second chapter of the novel. Myshkin’s thoughts are proved in the next episode when Rogozhin attempts to kill Myshkin – which would have seemed impossible after the characters exchanged their crosses. Thus the imminent catastrophe outlined in the episode dooms the novel’s final, yet not in terms of religious belief and the author’s dependence on Russian folk.
On the Divergence of the Slovak and Czech Literary Languages at the Word-formation Level
Authors: Lifanov Konstantin Vasil'evich
Published: November 2023

The object of the study is such lexemes of the Slovak literary language, which were originally similar to the corresponding Czech, but in the XX century they underwent changes, as their word-formation characteristics changed. At the same time, the corresponding Czech words remained unchanged. We call this phenomenon asymmetric divergence. Asymmetric divergence characterized many parts of speech: nouns, adjectives, adverbs, verbs. The source of the material was primarily the newspaper "Catholicke Noviny" for 1889-1890, as well as some publications of the early XX century. This article discusses cases of asymmetric divergence realized in small closed groups of vocabulary or even at the level of individual lexemes. The main conclusion of the author is that asymmetric divergence was an important factor in the formation of the lexical composition of the Slovak literary language and its acquisition of specific features that distanced it from the Czech. To the greatest extent, it affected nouns, and the most common means was suffixation, that is, replacing the original suffix that coincided with the corresponding Czech with another suffix. The divergence of the Slovak and Czech literary languages, as a rule, is beyond the field of view of researchers who consider primarily the influence of the Czech language on Slovak. At the same time, it was she who was the leading trend in the development of the Slovak literary language in the XX century.
Collections of Spanish paremias of the XVI century and their influenceon the development of folklore tradition
Authors: Bakanova Anna Valentinovna , Terentieva Ekaterina Dmitrievna
Published: November 2023

The article examines the works of folklore scientists who laid the foundations of Spanish paremiology. The subject of the study are collections of proverbs, sayings and other small genre forms published in Spain in the XVI century. The focus of attention is the famous apophthegmata of Melchor de Santa Cruz "Floresta española de apotegmas o sentencias, sabia y graciosamente dichas, de algunos españoles" (1574), which collected about a thousand texts and covers all aspects of the life of Spanish society. Along with other famous folklore collections of the XVI century by such authors as Juan de Timoneda, Juan de Mal Lara, Pedro Mejía, the work of Melchor de Santa Cruz influenced the formation of a scientific approach in Spanish folklore studies. The article provides a comparative analysis of collections of folklore texts of this period and emphasizes their influence on the development of Spanish folklore studies of subsequent centuries. The XVI century caused in Spain the rise of national consciousness, which is accompanied by an increase in scientific interest in the Spanish language, its lexical richness and grammatical system. Following the discovery of the New World, Spain is experiencing not only the rapid development of the science of folklore, but also the flowering of linguistic thought, based on the small genres of folklore in the issue of exemplification. The combination of short form and capacious content makes this group of genres attractive to linguists, folklorists, and Spanish writers of the Golden Age.
Purposes and patterns of the use of antique sources in old English religious texts by Ælfric and Wulfstan
Authors: Grishakova Ekaterina Sergeevna , Balykina Mariia Igorevna
Published: November 2023

The article contains the results of the analysis of existing investigations into the ways how Latin religious sources were adopted and adapted in Anglo-Saxon homiletic literature. The present analysis may be of value when it is important to understand how religious contexts were borrowed and presented to a different culture, moreover the motives of adaptation of Latin texts may add to better understanding of the writer’s personalities and thus to a clearer insight into their works. Two eminent old English writers: Aelfric and Wulfstan worked closely with Latin texts following various strategies. While Aelfric in most cases translated the texts verbatim or slightly modified them, Wulfstan put much effort to give the text his own personality. Both writers still depended on the rhetoric traditions employed in Latin and their individual styles coincide in with usage of some stylistic features such as assonance, alliteration and repetition, but still were rather different. Aelfric himself considered the translation to be a separate rhetoric device as the text converted into a different language does not only carry the message to the target audience, but makes the process of communication easier. For Wulfstan the message itself is of importance, not the source, so he elaborated his unique style of communicating his ideas to the target audience. The practical and scientific value of the article is expressed in the need to structure the existing studies of the influence of the Latin language on Old English and opens up the perspective of further study in the field of rhetoric and pragmalinguistics.
Pavlik Morozov in Post-Soviet Reality (based on V. P. Krapivin's novel "The Bronze Boy)
Authors: Sukhikh Ol'ga Stanislavovna
Published: November 2023

The object of the analysis is V. P. Krapivin's novel "The Bronze Boy". The subject of the study is the representation of the image of Pavlik Morozov in this work. The purpose of the study is to identify the author's concept of the image and fate of Pavlik Morozov in the novel by V. P. Krapivin. The cultural-historical method of analysis allows us to see how the moment of the change of the country's political course was reflected in the literary text and determined the views of the hero of the past era. The method of holistic analysis helps to determine how the title of the novel and plot parallels contribute to the creation of the image of a child victim of socio–political struggle and cruelty of the world. The scientific novelty of the article is determined by the fact that the image of Pavlik Morozov in "The Bronze Boy" was not previously the subject of special study. The study leads to the following conclusions. V. P. Krapivin shows that Pavlik Morozov is not a traitor, but a victim of a clash of socio-political interests. In the past, his image was made a symbol of devotion to social values, and in the era of the 1990s, shown in the novel, he was again given the role of a symbol, but already negatively labeled. The deheroization of the image of Pavlik Morozov in the era of the 1990s is evidence of the moral failure of society, from the point of view of V. P. Krapivin. The analysis of the multidimensional meaning of the novel's title allows us to conclude that for the writer, the story of Pavlik Morozov has a universal character and this is due to the fact that adults sacrifice the interests of the child. In addition, this is the tragedy of a person who committed an act for high reasons, which from a formal point of view can be perceived as odious. In this regard, Pavlik Morozov in the figurative system of the novel has doubles, with which plot branches are connected, deepening the tragic beginning. The results of the study may have practical application in teaching Russian literature of the late twentieth century.
Byronic motives in the image of Raskolnikov
Authors: Liang Ziheng
Published: November 2023

The article examines the features of Byronism in Raskolnikov's - one of Dostoevsky's characters. Based on the analysis of the works of Byron and his characters, an attempt is made to generalize the main features of this type of characteristic of the Byronic hero. Through comparison with the "Byronic heroes" and their inner world, Raskolnikov's character is analyzed more concretely and accurately. At the same time, the images of heroes of different historical periods, different nationalities and different literary trends are compared, similarities and differences between them are analyzed. Based on the comparison, an attempt is made to identify and generalize the Byronic features present in Raskolnikov's character. The comparative-historical approach, methods of generalization, interpretation of the results were used in the study. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that in the course of the work, the features of Raskolnikov's image were revealed in the aspect of such a literary trend as romanticism. The author also analyzes the reception of Byronic heroes in Russian literature. The main conclusion of the study is that Raskolnikov, although he appears in Dostoevsky's work as a realistic character, may well be considered as the successor of the Byronic hero. The results of the research contribute to the study of Raskolnikov's image in all its complexity. In addition, the conclusions of the article can also be used in the study of Dostoevsky's literary and philosophical position as a whole.
Understanding the "other" in the dialogue of cultures
Authors: Mikhelson Svetlana Viktorovna
Published: November 2023

The article presents an analysis of the principles of the "dialogue of cultures" principle, as a means of intercultural interaction between people belonging to different cultures. The clash of different cultures creates the need for dialogue and actualizes the question of the possibility of understanding. The problem of understanding the "other" in the dialogue of cultures includes not only the problem of understanding representatives of different cultural communities, but also the clash of "other" social communities, "other" peoples, "other" personalities. It is important to note that the existence of culture is possible only in the dialogue of those who created and those who perceive the phenomenon of culture. The dialogue of cultures is a form of interaction, understanding and evaluation of cultural objectivity and is at the center of the cultural process. The interaction of cultures in the modern world is manifested at all levels of human life: in everyday, economic, political, business levels. The increased interest in the issues of the culture of negotiation, intercultural interaction, the role of culture in society and various spheres of public life is closely related to the problems of a cultural nature. It becomes relevant to study the processes of adaptation to a foreign cultural environment, where the subject of research is not only new value standards, but also the mechanisms of interaction of existing cultural norms and, which is very important, the study of universal concepts used in various forms of cultural dialogue.
Artistic activity of Russian-Soviet artists in Harbin and Shanghai China during the period of the Republic of China (1912–1949)
Authors: Bai Jie
Published: November 2023

This article mainly studies and analyzes the artistic activity of Soviet artists in Harbin and Shanghai during the period of the Republic of China. Due to their special geographical location, Harbin and Shanghai have always been centers of dissemination and artistic exchange of Soviet art and culture in China. The subject of the study is various types of art education and artistic activities that Soviet artists carried out in China during the period of the Republic of China. The object of the study is the influence that the spread of Soviet realistic painting in China had on the development of modern Chinese art in the XX century. The author pays special attention to the analysis of the profound impact that the appearance of various art studios created in China, acquaintance with the artistic work of Soviet artists, as well as training with the owl, have had on the development of modern Chinese art. Soviet art has been the basis for the development of modern Chinese art from the very beginning. The novelty of this study lies in the fact that the author addresses a little – explored topic – how the arrival of Soviet artists in China, which coincided with the "Movement of Foreign Painting" in the Republic of China, influenced the formation of Chinese art. Soviet artists strongly supported the innovative artistic creativity of Chinese artists and at the same time contributed to the dominance of Soviet realistic art in the artistic landscape during the formation of China. The main conclusions of the study are that the mass spread of Soviet art in China created new ground for traditional Chinese art, gave a continuation and a new life to traditional painting. To a certain extent, this influenced the artistic and aesthetic preferences of that time and even the general public, and also directly affected the development of Chinese art education in the XX century.
On the representation of the cultural category of sinfulness in the works of A.N. Radishchev
Authors: Semukhina Elena Aleksandrovna , Ovchinnikova Elena Viktorovna
Published: November 2023

The subject of the research in this article is the category of sinfulness and the peculiarities of its actualization in the Russian culture of the late XVIII – early XIX century. The author examines the category under study through the prism of fiction, since this historical period is characterized by a special literary centrism, when the social, spiritual, and cultural life of society was reliably reflected in the works of art. The author focuses on the cultural analysis of A.N. Radishchev's treatise "On man, his mortality and Immortality", in which the category of sinfulness is represented through the writer's appeal to such concepts as vice, virtue, the sin of lust, greed, laziness and pride, as well as to the idea of punishment for sins, images of heaven and hell. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that for the first time the category of sinfulness was considered, an objectification of the sin was found in the work of A.N. Radishchev "About man, his mortality and immortality". In his essay, the writer examines in detail the sin of lust, its causes and consequences, devoting only a few lines to other sins, such as laziness, greed and pride, which allows us to judge their subjective significance. Based on the conducted cultural analysis, the author concludes that the category under study is implicit and is the basic one for the Russian society of the XIX century. In the work of A.N. Radishchev, the main, regulatory function of the category of sinfulness is actualized.
Further Investigation of Impedance Eduction in a Grazing Flow Duct Facility
Authors: Eversman Walter , Drouin Mary
Published: November 2023

An established protocol for impedance eduction is based on a search procedure in which wall impedance in a duct propagation model is varied to obtain an acoustic field converging with one measured in a grazing flow duct. Here, an acoustic velocity potential formulation for the finite element model propagation model is extended to examine the relative effectiveness of driving the model with measured acoustic pressure at the source and termination and driving with acoustic pressure at the source and closing the computational domain with measured termination impedance. Also assessed is the appropriate location of measurement microphones to satisfy plane wave requirements for the computational model. Source acoustic pressure and termination impedance driving the propagation model produce superior eduction results with lower residual error, though the model driven with pressure at both the source and termination produces acceptable spectra. The microphone location in the gazing flow test facility is judged to be adequate for the range of grazing flow Mach number and frequency considered. Examination of impedance spectra for a range of lining samples has revealed a correlation of a decrease in spectrum quality, measured by observed data scatter, with a decreasing face sheet open area ratio and therefore with increasing lining nonlinearity.
The dynamics of residential satisfaction in low-income human settlements in South Africa
Authors: Musvoto Godfrey
Published: November 2023

This book focuses on the dynamics of residential satisfaction in low income city neighbourhoods in post-apartheid South Africa. There is well documented evidence in post-apartheid South Africa that highlights the discontent of low-income city residents with their residences. The evidence includes violent service delivery protests, backlogs in services, overcrowding and mono-functional low-income settlements that are located relatively far from socio-economic opportunities. Therefore, in South Africa’s academic and professional planning circles there is need to add insights to the dynamics of residential satisfaction in low income city neighbourhoods. With this volume, the editor and the contributors sought to add case based and theoretically grounded literature to the dynamics of residential satisfaction in South Africa’s low income neighborhoods. The objective is to guide appropriately targeted human settlement interventions that meet beneficiaries’ housing needs and aspirations.

Learning Stability Scores from Computationally Generated Kinetic Data
Authors: Singla Veerupaksh , Zhao Qiyuan , Savoie Brett
Published: November 2023

The absence of computational methods to predict stressor-specific degradation susceptibilities represents a significant and costly challenge to the introduction of new materials into applications. Here, a machine-learning framework is developed that predicts stressor-specific stability scores from computationally generated reaction data. Thermal degradation of alkanes was studied as an exemplary system to demonstrate the approach. The half-lives of ~32k alkanes were simulated under pyrolysis conditions using 59 model reactions. Using a hinge-loss function, this half-life data was used to train machine learning models to predict a scalar representing the relative stability based only on the molecular graph. These models were successful in transferability case-studies using distinct train:test splits to recapitulate known stability trends with respect to the degree of branching and alkane size. Even the simplest models showed excellent performance in these case studies, demonstrating the relative ease with which thermal stability can be learned. The stability score is also shown to be useful in a design study, where it is used as part of the objective function of a genetic algorithm to guide the search towards more stable species. This work provides a framework for converting kinetic reaction data into stability scores that provide actionable design information and opens avenues for exploring more complex chemistries and stressors.

Authors: Han Xing , Zhou Zihui , Wang Kaiyu , Zheng Zhiling , Neumann S. Ephraim , Ma Tianqiong , Yaghi Omar
Published: November 2023

The synthesis of crystalline polyphenylene covalent organic frameworks (COFs) was accomplished by linking fluorinated tris(4-acetylphenyl)benzene building units using aldol cyclotrimerization. The structures of two COFs, reported here, were confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction techniques, Fourier-transform infrared, and solid-state 13C CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy. The results showed that the COFs were porous and chemically stable in corrosive, harsh environments for at least 1 week. Accordingly, post-synthetically modified derivatives of these COFs using primary amines showed CO2 uptake from air and flue gas.
Chemistry of Cyclo-[2n]-Carbon: A Many-Particle Quantum Mechanics Investigation
Authors: Chen Xi , Yan Xueyuan , Liu Zihan , Bu Caijie , Yuan Tao , Shang Yunlong , Xiao Han , Wu Yong , Wei Haiyan , Xu Jiawei
Published: November 2023

Direct observations of cyclo-[2n]-carbon molecules (C10, C14, C16 and C18) experimentally prepared by atom manipulation technique raised immense attraction in the general chemistry society. The cyclic π-conjugated systems, namely in-plane and out-plane, construct dual aromaticity for odd n while dual anti-aromaticity for even n. In this work, we performed electronic structure investigation into cyclo-[2n]-carbon with n = 3 ~ 9 by comparing results obtained by density functional theory (DFT) and density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method. By using Huckel molecular orbital (HMO) theory and the particle in a ring model, the electronic feature of such innovative carbon allotrope was clearly and chemically presented. Comparison showed that DFT results are considered to be incorrect for C6, which has a unique bonding structure among all cyclo-[2n]-carbon. The bond length alternating (BLA) phenomenon results from difference in electron correlation intensity and spatial distribution observed in pairs of bonding and anti-bonding orbitals. Therefore, results suggested that the dual anti-aromaticity in cyclo-[2n]-carbon with even n should be attributed to electron correlation effect, instead of decreased geometric symmetry, which actually exists in all cyclo-[2n]-carbon molecules and does not point out the essence.
Polydopamine functionalized dendritic fibrous silica nanoparticles as a generic platform for nucleic acid-based biosensing
Authors: Xue Xiaoting , Persson Helena , Ye Lei
Published: November 2023

Accurate and rapid detection of nucleic acid sequences is of utmost importance in various fields, including disease monitoring, clinical treatment, gene analysis and drug discovery. In this study, we developed a "turn-on" fluorescence biosensor that enables simple and highly efficient detection of nucleic acid biomarkers. Our approach involves the utilization of 6-carboxyfluorescein modified single-stranded DNA (FAM-ssDNA) as molecular recognition element, along with polydopamine-functionalized dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DFNS). FAM-ssDNA serves as both specific molecular recognition element for target analyte and reporter capable of transducing a detectable signal through Watson-Crick base pairing. The polydopamine-functionalized DFNS (DFNS@DA) exhibits strong binding to FAM-ssDNA via polyvalent metal mediated coordination leading to effective quenching by fluorescence resonance energy transfer. In the presence of a complementary target sequence, FAM-ssDNA forms hybridized structure and detaches from DFNS@DA, which causes an increased fluorescence emission. The analytical system based on FAM-ssDNA and DFNS@DA demonstrates exceptional sensitivity, selectivity, and rapid response for the detection of nucleic acid sequences, leveraging the high adsorption and quenching properties of DFNS@DA. For the first proof of concept, we demonstrated the successful detection of microRNA (miR-21) in cancer cells using the FAM-ssDNA/DFNS@DA system. Our results highlight the promising capabilities of DFNS@DA and nucleic acid-based biosensors, offering a generic and cost-effective solution for the detection of nucleic acid-related biomarkers.

Introduction. The river basin and the catchments of small rivers within it is a complete ecological, hydrological and economic unit with clear boundaries and a set of natural conditions. Increasing the stability of the geosystem of the river basin is impossible without monitoring the dynamics of the state of natural resources and factors of negative impact. A significant part of the water management complex of the Volyn region is the Pripet River basin which has a significant degree of development. The watercourse forms part of the state border between Ukraine and the Republic of Belarus, the tributary basins are located on the territory of both states. The source, lower course and mouth of the Pripet River are on the territory of Ukraine. Therefore, it is necessary to observe the strategic principles of rational nature management to restore and preserve the optimal ecological state of the Pripet River basin.

The objective of the work is to assess the ecological state of the Pripet River using bioindication methods and the Macrophyte Index for Rivers (MIR).

Methods. Research methods are expeditionary, mathematical statistics, bioindication, and determination of the Macrophyte Index for Rivers (MIR).

Results. Four test sites of at least 100 m length each were used to determine the ecological state of the waters of the Pripet River. Research found 48 species of higher aquatic and coastal aquatic plants in the test sites of the Pripet River. All species belong to the division Magnoliophyta, of which 21 species of the class Magnoliopsida (43.75%), and the larger share (27 species, 56.25%) to the class Liliopsida.

35 indicative species of macrophytes were selected in the test sites of the river to determine the Macrophyte Index for Rivers (MIR). According to the MIR classification, the river belongs to lowland watercourses, the macrophyte type M-VIII (organic rivers). MIR calculations established that the river water quality in the test site No. 1 (village of Polozhevo, upper reaches) has a satisfactory ecological state, MIR is 33.84; in the site No. 2 (v. Luchytsi) satisfactory ecological state, MIR is 34.04; in the site No. 3 (v. Liubyaz, border between Volyn and Rivne regions) good ecological state, MIR is 40.6; water quality in the site No. 4 (v. Senchytsi, border with Belarus) has satisfactory ecological state, MIR is 33.57.

Conclusions. According to the Macrophyte Index for Rivers, it was established that the Pripet River waters have a satisfactory or good ecological state. This gives reason to state that the research in the test sites and the MIR calculations fully reflect the ecological state of the watercourse, which allows the use of this research algorithm for other rivers of the basin.
Género y gestión del riesgo de desastres: análisis comparado de la agenda internacional y latinoamericana y caribeña

Published: November 2023

En este artículo, se lleva a cabo un análisis documental comparado en un doble sentido: por un lado, se estudia cómo se ha incorporado la perspectiva de género en los principales acuerdos multilaterales sobre reducción del riesgo de desastres aprobados en el ámbito internacional, latinoamericano y caribeño y, por otro, cómo se aborda la gestión del riesgo de desastres en la agenda de igualdad en el mismo ámbito territorial. Los resultados muestran que se ha producido un acelerado proceso de incorporación de la perspectiva de género en la gestión del riesgo de desastres a escala global, no así en América Latina y el Caribe, contexto geográfico en el que dicha evolución no ha sido homogénea ni constante. El rezago identificado en esta región, especialmente afectada por los desastres, revela la importancia de contar con una regulación armonizada, que además incorpore las evidencias científicas sobre la materia alcanzadas en las últimas décadas.

El comercio internacional puede ser una fuente de recursos para países en vías de desarrollo; sin embargo, es fundamental analizar a los socios comerciales a quienes se accede. Así, el objetivo del artículo es analizar las redes sociales compuestas por el comercio internacional entre los países del Sur Global y la manera en que América Latina puede aprovechar estas oportunidades para su desarrollo. Se utiliza una metodología cuantitativa basada en la técnica del análisis de redes sociales. Se concluye que la red está marcada por la cercanía geográfica entre los países del Sur Global; asimismo, Latinoamérica tiene un incipiente proceso de integración económica que se podría aprovechar más, así como ampliar su participación en los mercados del Sur Global.
What kind of sustainable development do we need?
Authors: Basart Josep M. , Farr´ús Mireia , Serra Montse
Published: November 2023

Today, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the main framework of reference when addressing sustainability and human development. Unfortunately, there are several aspects and issues that the SDGs have ignored or underestimated and can become serious obstacles to their success. Among them, the ethical, cultural, and spiritual dimensions of human life seem to have faded into oblivion. Without these dimensions, the SDGs may become a kind of well-intended but blind problem-solving strategy that ignores the reasons of the crisis it wants to redress. This absence is apparent when the vocabulary used by the SDGs comes under scrutiny and is still more evident when it is compared with the language used in other well-known international declarations on the same subject. Bringing this shortcoming to light opens the possibility for the SDGs to review the strategies with which they could be more effective when pursuing their purposes in the coming years.

A abordagem deste estudo se fundamenta em uma análise crítica respaldada por 3 documentos oficiais e 22 trabalhos científicos, visando lançar luz sobre a função desempenhada por esse preceptor. A partir de uma diversidade de autores e perspectivas do campo da Educação, refletiu-se sobre a formação docente, atuação dos professores da escola básica e programas de formação inicial. Foi defendido também que preceptor é formador, alinhando-se ao reconhecimento da profissionalização docente. Os resultados revelam uma minimização do papel do docente da escola básica na formação de novos docentes, limitando-o a uma função de coformador.
Theoretical and Practical Foundations of Inflation Targeting with Special Emphasis on the Experience of Serbia
Authors: Lazić Milena , Domazet Ivana
Published: November 2023

Compared to the 1970s when the inflation rate in most countries reached double digits, nowadays we are facing low inflation rates globally. Inflation targeting, as a monetary policy strategy, appeared in late 1980s in the period when other strategies proved to be insufficiently effective. The first country to apply inflation targeting strategy in 1989 was New Zealand. Since then, 64 countries[1] have implemented the inflation targeting. The concept of inflation targeting as a strategy for conducting monetary policy in Serbia was introduced in August 2006. When choosing the appropriate strategy to ensure price stability, the NBS relies on the experiences of other countries, especially Central and Eastern European countries. Accordingly, the paper aims to present the genesis of the development of the inflation targeting strategy, as well as the impact of applying this strategy on reducing global inflation. A special segment of this paper is devoted to the analysis of the experiences of Serbia in terms of applying the inflation targeting strategy.
