Authors: N. Borisov Sergey , I. Lipich Tamara , W. Loginova Nataliy , V. Penskoy Vitaly , V. Lipich Vasiliy
Published: November 2019

Purpose: The article is devoted to the analysis of the peculiarities of the system of relations that were formed between the Orthodox Church and the authority of the Russian state in the early modern period.

Methodology: The authors, based on the most recent research approaches of the characteristics of early modern states, use a number of examples to show the significant role of the church and its hierarchy which had both an effect on the secular authority actions, limited its power and represented the political role of the Russian state and society.

Result: The authors point out to the informality, unfounded in any formal legislative acts. This informality allowed the church to respond flexibly to the demands of the moment, but at the same time weakened its position. The authors also point out that that being the only independent Orthodox Church; the Russian church imposed certain limitations on its actions as an independent force of the supreme power, which later served as one of the factors that caused the subordination of the church to the state and its transformation into integral element of the machinery of government.

Applications: This research can be used for universities, teachers, and students.

Novelty/Originality: In this research, the model of the State and the Church in Russia in the Early New Age: Custom and Law is presented in a comprehensive and complete manner.

O ethos e suas noções conexas
Authors: Piris Eduardo Lopes
Published: November 2019

Neste artigo, apresentamos uma reflexão acerca da apropriação do ethos retórico pela análise do discurso, reivindicando certas características enunciativas dessa noção no processo de adaptação a uma teoria contemporânea. A partir de Amossy (2005 [1999]), Haddad (2005 [1999]) e Maingueneau (2005 [1999]), discutimos as noções conexas do ethos: anti-ethos, incorporação do ethos, ethos prévio e pré-discursivo. Assim, com base no quadro teórico de Maingueneau (1997 [1987]; 2005 [1999]; 2008), nos estudos de Alexandrescu (1976) sobre as modalidades epistêmicas e os postulados de Bakhtin/Volochinov (2002) sobre o discurso citado, analisamos o ethos discursivo construído no pronunciamento do deputado Geraldo Freire (ARENA/MG), líder do governo na Câmara dos Deputados durante a sessão deliberativa de 12 de dezembro de 1968, cuja votação marcou a história da política brasileira ao se tornar o pretexto para o regime ditatorial promulgar o Ato Institucional nº 5.

Authors: Almeida Júlia Maria Costa , Campos Annelise Carvalho Soutto Mayor de
Published: November 2019

O presente artigo procura observar a construção de cenografias e ethos discursivo e em duas cartas abertas de autoria do ex-presidente Luís Inácio Lula da Silva, publicadas em 2002 e 2018, ambas com finalidade eleitoral em contextos de candidatura à Presidência do Brasil. Por meio da teorização de Dominique Maingueneau sobre as cenas da enunciação e o ethos discursivo, as cartas foram analisadas, comparando-se os recursos utilizadas na construção de imagens públicas do político Lula, de seus interlocutores e de seus adversários, assim como na representação de temporalidades da vida política nacional. Observam-se diferenças importantes nas estratégias utilizadas, sobretudo quanto ao ethos e ao público visados, já que as cartas atendem a interesses e funções distintas em cada contexto, tendo o gênero um lugar consolidado na vida política contemporânea.
Elliptical Tracks: Evidence for Superluminal Electrons?
Authors: Fredericks Keith
Published: November 2019

In the literature of Low-Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR), particle tracks in photographic emulsions (and other materials) associated with certain electrical discharges have been reported. Some Russian and French researchers have considered these particles to be magnetic monopoles. These tracks correspond directly to tracks created with a simple uniform exposure to photons without an electrical discharge source. This simpler method of producing tracks supports a comprehensive exploration of particle track properties. Out of 750 exposures with this method, elliptical particle tracks were detected, 22 of which were compared to Bohr-Sommerfeld electron orbits. Ellipses fitted to the tracks were found to have quantized semi-major axis sizes with ratios of ≈n2/α2 to corresponding Bohr-Sommerfeld hydrogen ellipses. This prompts inquiry relevant to magnetic monopoles due to the n2/α2 force difference between magnetic charge and electric charge using the Schwinger quantization condition. A model using analogy with the electron indicates that the elliptical tracks could be created by a bound magnetically charged particle with mass mm = 1.45 × 10-3 eV/c2, yet with superluminal velocities. Using a modified extended relativity model, mm becomes the relativistic mass of a superluminal electron, with m0 = 5.11 × 10-3 eV/c2, the fine structure constant becomes a mass ratio and charge quantization is the result of two states of the electron.
Evidence on the Effect of Position Change on Pressure Ulcer among Hospitalized Adult Patients in Ethiopia: Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review
Authors: Shibabaw wondimeneh , Aynalem Yared Asmare , Yirga Tadesse
Published: November 2019

Background: Pressure ulcers (PU) aﬀect millions of people worldwide and always occur over bony areas of the body where pressure and tissue distortion is greatest. The national pooled prevalence of pressure ulcer remains unknown. Hence, the aim of this meta-analysis was to determine the effect of position change on pressure ulcer among hospitalized clients in Ethiopia. Methods: Studies were retrieved through search engines in PubMed, Scopus, WHO afro library, Google Scholar, Africa journal online, PsycINFO and web-science following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P). Analysis was done using STATA version 14 software. We checked the between-study heterogeneity using the I2 and examined a potential publication bias by visual inspection of the funnel plot and Egger’s regression test statistic. The random-effect model was fitted to estimate the summary effects, odds ratios (ORs), and 95% confidence interval (CIs) across studies. Results: Out of the reviewing 401 studies, 7 studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in the meta-analysis. The estimated pooled prevalence of pressure ulcer in Ethiopia was 11.7% (95% CI (7.28, 16.13%)). Based on the subgroup analysis, the estimated magnitude of pressure ulcer was 15.89% (95% CI: 35.34, 54.04) among studies their sample size were greater than or equals to 250. Those clients who have position change during hospitalization were 85% less likely to develop pressure ulcer [(OR 0.15, 95%CI (0.06, 0.4)] than their counter part. Conclusion: The overall prevalence of pressure ulcer in Ethiopia was relatively high. Position change of the client during hospitalization had paramount benefit to reduce the burden of pressure ulcer. Therefore, policymakers could give special attention to minimize the magnitude of pressure ulcer in order to improve the overall quality of healthcare service. Further meta-analysis study is need to identify individual and health care service related factors to the occurrence of pressure ulcer.
Interaction between Organic and Inorganic PCMs and Selected Metals
Authors: Bantová Sylva , Ostrý Milan , Struhala Karel
Published: November 2019

Phase Change Materials (PCMs) are latent heat storage media with high potential of integration in building structures and technical systems. Their solid-liquid transition is commonly utilized for thermal energy storage in building applications. It also means that some kind of encapsulation is necessary. This is often solved with metal containers that also have high thermal conductivity and resistance to mechanical damage enhancing the performance these so called latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems. However selection of suitable metal is rather challenging. It depends, among other things, on the elimination of undesirable interaction between storage medium and surrounding metal. Heat storage medium must be reliably sealed in metal container especially when the storage system is integrated in systems like domestic hot water storage tanks, where PCM leaks can negatively affect human health. The aim of this study was evaluation of interaction between selected commercially available organic and inorganic PCMs and metals. The evaluation is based on the calculation of corrosion rate and use gravimetric method for determination of the weigh variations of the metal samples. Results show that aluminium is the most suitable container material with lowest mass loss and suffered only minimal visual changes on the surface after prolonged exposure to PCMs.

Published: November 2019

Mineral profile of beef interests human health, but also animal performance and meat quality. This study analyzes the relationships of 20 minerals in beef (ICP-OES) with 3 animal performance and 13 meat quality traits analyzed on 182 samples of Longissimus thoracis. Animals’ breed and sex showed limited effects. The major sources of variation (farm/date of slaughter, individual animal within group and side/sample within animal) differed greatly from trait to trait. Mineral contents were correlated to animal performance and meat quality being significant 52 out of the 320 correlations at the farm/date level, and 101 out of the 320 at the individual animal level. Five latent factors explained 69% of mineral co-variation. The most important, “Mineral quantity” factor correlated with age at slaughter and with the meat color traits. Two latent factors (“Na+Fe+Cu” and “Fe+Mn”) correlated with performance and meat color traits. Two other (“K-B-Pb” and “Zn”) correlated with meat chemical composition and the latter also with carcass weight and daily gain, and meat color traits. Meat cooking losses correlated with “K-B-Pb”. Latent factor analysis appears be a useful means of disentangling the very complex relationships that the minerals in meat have with animal performance and meat quality traits.

Published: November 2019

An amorphous silicon carbide (SiC) membrane with H2 permeance of 1.2E-7 mol･m-2･s-1･Pa-1 and excellent H2/CO2 selectivity of 2600 at 673 K was successfully synthesized on a Ni-gamma-alumina-coated alpha-alumina porous support by counter diffusion chemical vapor deposition (CDCVD) using silacycrobutane (SCB) at 788 K. The dominant permeation mechanism for He and H2 in the temperature range 323-673 K was activated diffusion. The SiC active layer was formed in Ni-gamma-Al2O3 intermediate layer. The thermal expansion coefficients mismatch between SiC active layer and Ni-gamma-Al2O3-coated alpha-Al2O3 porous support was eased by the low decomposition temperature of SiC source and membrane structure.

Authors: Avetisov Viacheslav , Bjoroey Ove , Wang Junyang , Geiser Peter , Paulsen Ketil Gorm
Published: November 2019

A laser-based hydrogen (H2) sensor using wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) was developed for contactless measurements of molecular hydrogen. The sensor uses a distributed feedback (DFB) laser to target the H2 quadrupole absorption line at 2121.8 nm. The H2 absorption line exhibits weak collisional broadening and strong collisional narrowing effects. Both effects were investigated by comparing measurements of the absorption linewidth with detailed models using different line profiles that include collisional narrowing effects. The collisional broadening and narrowing parameters were determined for pure hydrogen as well as for hydrogen in nitrogen and air. Performance of the sensor was evaluated and the sensor applicability for H2 measurements in a range of 0- 10 %v of H2 was demonstrated. A precision of 0.02 %v was achieved with 1 meter of absorption pathlength (0.02 %v∙m) and 1 s of integration time. For the optimum averaging time of 20 s a precision of 0.005 %v∙m was achieved. A good linear relationship between H2 concentration and the sensor response was observed. A simple and robust transmitter-receiver configuration of the sensor allows in-situ installations in harsh industrial environments.

Published: November 2019

The aim of this study of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is to assess the safety of daily consumption of walnuts on the physiological levels of phosphorous, potassium, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), and to assess the short-term benefits of this intervention on risk factors associated with cardiovascular events. This led us to perform a prospective, randomized, cross-over, pilot clinical trial examined 13 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Subjects were randomly assigned to a diet of 30 g of walnuts per day or the control diet. After 30 days, each group was given a 30-day washout period, and then switched to the alternate diet for 30 days. Urinary and serum levels of phosphorous and potassium, multiple vascular risk factors, and urinary inositol phosphates (InsPs) were measured at baseline and at the end of the intervention period. Our results showed that the walnut dietary supplement led to reduced blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, and serum albumin, but had no effect on the physiological levels of phosphorous, potassium, PTH, and FGF23. This is the first report to show that daily consumption of walnuts by patients with CKD does not alter their physiological levels of phosphorous, potassium, PTH, and FGF23. Consequently, this dietary supplement may prevent cardiovascular events in patients with CKD.
Modeling Strategy for 3-Wavelength (UV, Blue, Red) Controlled Photopolymerization: Part-II, Improved Conversion and Confinement in 3D-Printing
Authors: Lin Jui-Teng , Cheng Da-Chuan , Chen Kuo-Ti , Chiu Yin-Chen , Liu Hsia-Wei
Published: November 2019

Detailed kinetics for a 3-wavelength photopolymerization confinement (PC) system is presented for both numerical solutions and analytic formulas. The dynamic profiles are simulated for oxygen, free radical, and conversion for various situations of: blue-light only, 2-light (red and UV), and 3-light (red, blue, UV). An effective PC requires two conditions: (i) a strong N-inhibition for uncured regime with a low conversion (triggered by the UV-light); and (ii) a weak S-inhibition (oxygen-induced) for high conversion under the blue-light or blue and red-light initiation. Good PC candidates are governed by collective factors of: (i) the double ratio of light-intensity and initiator-concentration, (ii) monomers rate-constant; and (iii) effective absorption constants at specific wavelength and initiators. A new reverse feature for the role of N-inhibition on the blue-conversion is found. Higher oxygen concentration leads to a lower conversion, which could be enhanced by reducing the S-inhibition via a red or blue-light pre-irradiation, having a pre-irradiation time TP=200 s for red-light only, and reduced to 150 s, when both red and blue-light. System under UV-only leads a conversion lower than that of blue-only. However, conversion could be improved by the dual-light (blue and UV), and further enhanced by the pre-irradiation of red-light. The two competing factors, N-inhibition and S-inhibition, could be independently and selectively tailored to achieve: (a) high conversion of blue-light (without UV-light), enhanced by red-light pre-irradiation for minimal S-inhibition; and (b) efficient PC initiated by UV-light produced N-inhibition for reduced confinement thickness and for high print speed.

Published: November 2019

This paper analyses the health and performance of 12-stage axial compressor of the TV3-117VM/VMA turboshaft operated in a desert environment. The results of the dimensional control of 4,800 worn blades are analysed to model the wear process. Operational experience and numerical simulations are used to assess the effectiveness of an Inlet Particle Separator. Numerical modal analysis is performed to generate the Campbell diagram of worn blades and identify resonant blade vibration which can lead to high cycle fatigue (HCF). It is shown that the gradual loss of the stall margin over time determines the serviceability limits of compressor blades. Recommendations setting out go / no-go criteria are made to maintenance and repair organisations.

In response to character education stated in Indonesian Curriculum 2013, to build characters for students of early ages is significant. This can be built through establishing reading habits and building character education to young learners living in urban and suburban areas simultaneously. However, there is lack attention paid to those living in suburban areas. Thus, this research is intended to provide them with some appropriate character-based reading materials. In order that they enjoy reading, the reading materials should be joyful and arouse imagining. This research employs Research and Development (Borg and Gall, 1983 & Ari, et.al., 1985) with the data were collected through doing need analysis by means of distributing questionnaire to EYL in suburban areas in East Java Indonesia, interviewing EYL teachers and parents having children at elementary schools. The results of the data collecetd in Need Analysis were used to develop the product. This R and D produced collection of Joyful Story Sheets (JoSS) for EYL of the 3rd, the 4th, the 5th, and the 6th graders with each grade consists of 40 joyful story sheets written based on some characters, i.e. hard working, independence, discipline, honesty, and tolerance. The research reveals that the product of this research-namely JoSS- is proved to inspire the students’ moral values, to build love of reading, and to encourage learning English. This research result is pedagogically implemented not only as a means of character education but as supplementary materials for reading class as well. To prove its effectiveness, it is suggested for further researchers to experimentally investigate.

The science of studying the brain is neuroscience. Therefore, Islamic education and neuroscience can be hybridized in an interdisciplinary manner. The purpose of this study was to find new scientific varieties resulted from hybridization of Islamic education and neuroscience. This research is an interdisciplinary study with a qualitative approach in the form of library research. The source of the research data is the literature in the field of Islamic education and neuroscience that is explored and collected documentary and analyzed with content analysis. The results of the study showed that the concepts of nasiyah (crown) and ‘aql (mind) in the Quran have a correlation with the brain and mind in neuroscience. Both can be hybridized so as to find new varieties of science called the Islamic Education Neuroscience. This new branch of science has the potential to be equivalent to the scientific branches that have been developing so far, such as the philosophy of Islamic education, the psychology of Islamic education, the anthropology of Islamic education and so is the neuroscience of Islamic education. Educators, both teachers and lecturers who study this science can do stimulation and intervention to optimize students' brain potential in an integrated manner in learning Islamic diversity.

Statistical analysis of gender pay gap in modern-day Russia
Authors: Eliseeva I. I. , Dekina M. Р.
Published: November 2019

Purpose of the study. The study of gender disparity remains relevant for all countries, including the Russian Federation. The study of disparity in quantitative terms: the income distribution, in which the main source – wages, is of particular importance. In the analysis of the gender pay gap, the main factors are such characteristics as the level of education, work status, district, age and the period of the employee’s service. The purpose of this article is a statistical assessment of gender differentiation of wages in Russia based on empirical data and aggregated data from the Federal State Statistics Service. Particular attention is paid to the econometric approach to gender differences in wages.  

Materials and methods. As the main sources of information were data from the Federal State Statistics Service. In addition as the empirical base of the study, the data from the 27th wave of the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS) – Higher School of Economics were used. The study is based on a modified Mincer`s type equation. Models of the logarithm of wages for all employees, as well as separately for men and women, were developed. To clarify the range of factors, affecting wage differences, models were developed with either the age of the employees or the period of their service. In addition, the factor “socio-professional group” was included, due to the presence of marked gender differentiation among occupational groups. On the base of the constructed models, the gender difference in wages was decomposed.  

Results. The results allowed quantifying the impact of gender on wages, as well as assessing the impact of various factors separately for male and female. It was found a stronger influence of education on the women wages, which indicates, on the one hand, the intellectual advantages of women, and on the other hand, indicates the difficulty of obtaining decent earnings for women with low education. The factor of residence is more affected for men. Decomposition of gender difference in wages allowed us to establish the continued existence of gender inequality in the Russian Federation, ceteris paribus.  

Conclusion. The study of gender wage differentiation remains an important element in the analysis of both wage differentiation in general and gender disparity. The results of the analysis confirmed the persistence of gender differentiation wages in Russia at present. In the future, it is necessary to expand the analysis of gender differentiation of wages with the following characteristics: additional education, health, marital status, differences in the education of husband and wife, and the presence of preschool children.

La Telemedicina en Colombia: realidad moral y jurídica
Authors: Correa Díaz Ana María , Guzmán-Pérez Feibert Alirio
Published: November 2019

El presente artículo tiene como propósito analizar la aplicación de la telemedicina en Colombia desde una perspectiva ética, deontológica y legal. La justificación a ello se encuentra en que la labor del galeno contiene una responsabilidad humanizante; así que a través del empleo de herramientas metodológicas documentales es posible interpretar la utilidad de la lógica, la fenomenología, la hermenéutica y la filosofía en la medicina a distancia, con fines de superar los vacíos en la normatividad vigente en telemedicina en el terri torio nacional. Es bien reconocida la responsabilidad jurídica del médico en las ramas civil, penal, administrativa, social y constitucional, de manera que, en caso de fallas, imprudencias o negligencias en la actividad telemédica, queda recurrir al seguimiento de los códigos éticos y deontológicos a medida que el nuevo paradigma tele-médico se consolida. En suma, las entrevistas con expertos tele-médicos y la literatura científica sobre el tema ha demostrado la utilidad de profundizar en los riesgos y usos de la telemedicina, y en el binomio ciencia y humanismo inherente en su ejercicio.
Pharmacological Treatments for Fragile X Syndrome Based on Synaptic Dysfunction
Authors: Telias Michael
Published: November 2019

Background:

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of monogenic hereditary cognitive
impairment, including intellectual disability, autism, hyperactivity, and epilepsy.

Methods:

This article reviews the literature pertaining to the role of synaptic dysfunction in FXS.

Results:

In FXS, synaptic dysfunction alters the excitation-inhibition ratio, dysregulating molecular and cellular
processes underlying cognition, learning, memory, and social behavior. Decades of research have yielded important
hypotheses that could explain, at least in part, the development of these neurological disorders in FXS patients.
However, the main goal of translating lab research in animal models to pharmacological treatments in the
clinic has been so far largely unsuccessful, leaving FXS a still incurable disease.

Conclusion:

In this concise review, we summarize and analyze the main hypotheses proposed to explain synaptic
dysregulation in FXS, by reviewing the scientific evidence that led to pharmaceutical clinical trials and their
outcome.

Background:

As involved in tumor angiogenesis, Neuropilin Receptor type-1 (NRP-1) serves as an attractive target for cancer molecular imaging and therapy. Widespread expression of NRP-1 in normal tissues may affect anti-NRP-1 antibody tumor uptake.

Objective:

To assess a novel anti-NRP-1 monoclonal antibody A6-11-26 biodistribution in NRP-1 positive tumor xenograft models to understand the relationships between dose, normal tissue uptake and tumor uptake.

Methods:

The A6-11-26 was radiolabeled with 131I and the mice bearing U87MG xenografts were then administered with 131I-labelled A6-11-26 along with 0, 2.5, 5, and 10mg·kg-1 unlabelled antibody A6-11-26. Biodistribution and SPECT/CT imaging were evaluated.

Results:

131I-A6-11-26 was synthesized successfully by hybridoma within 60min. It showed that most of 131IA6- 11-26 were in the plasma and serum (98.5 ± 0.16 and 88.9 ± 5.84, respectively), whereas, less in blood cells. For in vivo biodistribution studies, after only injection of 131I-A6-11-26, high levels of radioactivity were observed in the liver, moderate level in lungs. However, liver and lungs radioactivity uptakes could be competitively blocked by an increasing amount of unlabeled antibody A6-11-26, which can increase tumor radioactivity levels, but not in a dose-dependent manner. A dose between 10 and 20mg·kg-1 of unlabeled antibody A6-11-26 may be the optimal dose that maximized tumor exposure.

Conclusion:

Widespread expression of NRP-1 in normal tissue may affect the distribution of A6-11-26 to tumor tissue. An appropriate antibody A6-11-26 dose would be required to saturate normal tissue antigenic sinks to achieve acceptable tumor exposure.

BACKGROUND

Parents need information about their children’s symptoms and the Internet is a major resource that may serve as a convenient repository of health information for parents. There is an urgent need for health professionals to provide parents with evidence-based child health websites. There is also a need for instruments to measure their accessibility, usability, usefulness and confidence building.

OBJECTIVE

The main aim of the present study was to develop a questionnaire for measuring users’ evaluation of different aspects of a Spanish paediatric Health web for parents. We further sought to evaluate the content validity and psychometric reliability of our instrument.

METHODS

After a review of the literature we designed an initial 40-qualitative item pilot survey, following the Checklist for Reporting Results of Internet E-Surveys (CHERRIES) guidelines. We performed a content validation study by experts review and the survey was then administered via web. Psychometric analyses were used to establish scales through exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. Reliability studies were performed using Cronbach's Alpha and Two-Split Half Method.

RESULTS

Content validation of the questionnaire by experts was considered as excellent. The pilot web survey was completed by 516 volunteer participants. Exploratory factor analysis allowed us to exclude 26 of the 40 initial items. Confirmatory factor analysis of the resultant 14-item questionnaire confirmed the five initial domains previously detected in the exploratory confirmatory analysis. The goodness of fit for the competing models was established through fit indices and confirmed the previously established domains. Adequate internal consistency was found for each of the subscales as well as the overall scale.

CONCLUSIONS

Effectiveness and reliability are essential aspects of eHealth interventions and should be properly evaluated. Although our research has limitations, we can assume that our questionnaire is appropriate for the evaluation of an eHealth Spanish paediatric web for parents.

This study seeks to identify effective methods for developing outstanding athletes. Through interviews and questionnaire surveys with supervisors, coaches, members of subordinate teams, and university sports clubs, it was found that the characteristics of subordinates of different sports vary. This study conducts interviews with supervisors of subordinate basketball and soccer teams and a university baseball club. Fifty-four samples were obtained from team members of one subordinate basketball team, one subordinate soccer team, and one university baseball club. Using a qualitative and quantitative approach, this study drew conclusions on the methods for the development of athletes in various sports. It also confirms that subordinate teams or university sports clubs have a positive influence on outstanding athlete development. The limitations of the study and topics for future research are also discussed.
PERUSAKAN LINGKUNGAN SEBAGAI TINDAK PIDANA TERORISME
Authors: Kafrawi Rachman Maulana
Published: November 2019

This research aims to identify whether the environmental destruction could be considered as terrorism and to identify why the person who damaged the environmental should be considered as a terrorist. The conclusion of this research indicates a concept which views that the person who did enviromental destruction as terrorism. This concept is textual elaboration which is contained in section 10 Law No. 15, 2003 about the eradication of the terrorism. The crime for environmental destructions which are catagorized as terrorism are as follows: The impacts of the environmental destruction and pollution exceed Baku Mutu Lingkungan Hidup (BMLH), the poisonous chemicals release in the public areas (as happened during internal armed conflict in suriah on March 2011), there are bulk of victims, and it harms and damages the strategical vital objects. Based on those criterion, the environmental destruction is considered as equal as terrorism, because they are catagorized as a crime againts humanity. The environmental destruction happens because of low obedience and awareness of people to protect and to save the environment and it could be indicator that the law enforcement for environmental protection and management has not gone well yet. Based on this concept, it is expected that the responsibility and commitment of Indonesia could be achieved in order to ensure the protection and fulfillment of the environment and human rights and to reach the aims of environmental justice.

Indonesian people are shocked by the case of the Chinese Fisheries (KM) with the name KM Kway Fey 10078 which is categorized as a Foreign Fish Boat (KIA) fishing around the Natuna Islands waters which are the territorial waters of the Indonesian EEZ. The concept of historical traditional fishing ground towards waters in the Natuna sea region which in fact is still an Indonesian EEZ area needs to be further analyzed. The formulation of the problem in legal research are: (1). Theoretical and regulatory regarding Historical Traditonal Fishing Ground based on UNCLOS 1982. (2). The provisions of IUU Fishing are based on UNCLOS 1982 and Indonesian legislation is applied in the case of Historical Traditonal Fishing Ground which catches fish in Indonesian (EEZ) waters. Legal research methods are used with statute approaches and conceptual approaches. The results of this research are (1). If without a bilateral agreement, it is in accordance with the UNCLOS 1982 Historical Traditions of Fishing Ground is categorized as one of the IUU Fishing and violations of jurisdiction and territorial integrity of Indonesia, where Indonesian legal authorities have the right to take action on every fisherman who claims to have traditional fishing rights in accordance with Indonesian legal mechanisms. (2). Needs support from countries to implement policies, programs, and practices from these countries to make this rule implementable, so that there is an impact of remedy for countries that are considered to do IUU Fishing under the pretext of using historical traditional fishing right, then fish commodities arrested was prohibited from being traded on the international market, because the commodity was captured from a process of violation of international marine law and violation of jurisdiction and sovereignty of the State.
