Published: October 2021

In recent years, enterprises try to develop the online sales systems in order to reach various customers in different places and expect to bring better profit or company exposure via the internet and mobile device channels. However, different platforms, technologies, transaction rules, policies and processes have resulted in data dispersion and business logic inconsistency that is hard for the company to audit and manage. This study presented a service-oriented analysis and design of the online sales process integration for our case company. We analyzed and modeled the processes using the service-oriented modeling and architecture (SOMA) approach to identify service candidates, and also utilized service component architecture (SCA) to create web services for activities required for the processes. Based on the function of services, business rules and logic, the corresponding service abstraction layer of the integrated online sales process is established. Finally, this study used the Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) to realize the service orchestration and composition, thus achieving service reusability. With the SOA solution, the case company can efficiently integrate resources and that the enterprise system become more flexible, agile and cost-effective.
An anslysis of Impact on Hong Kong Economy under free convertibility and internationalization of Renminbi currency
Authors: LAI Ping-fu , LAU Yuk- hing
Published: October 2021

Nowadays, countries around the world, including economic giant USA, are increasingly concerned over the issue of undervaluation of RMB. Also, with the trade of China diversifying to various countries around the world in recent years, China has been urged to internationalise its currency- RMB. Undoubtedly, with the pressure of various countries, internationalisation of RMB seems only the matter of time. Hong Kong has been a very close relationship with China. Therefore it is expected the change would bring a profound impact to Hong Kong. In this research, below chapters are looked into what the role should Hong Kong play for coming development of RMB. The potential benefits and dangers of internationalization of RMB would be analysed. Furthermore, explore whether it would bring golden opportunities to Hong Kong’s economy. If so, what should be the positioning of Hong Kong? These are the questions going to solve in this research. In China’s part, since internationalisation of RMB is inevitable, therefore, China needs time to minimize the risk deriving from free convertibility of RMB. To help RMB be internationalising, China needs to choose locations as a tool to further internationalise its financial systems. Clearly, since Shanghai and Hong Kong have a relatively mature financial system and regime, those places are able to help China as well as RMB to step into the global financial market.
HOW DOMESTIC DEBT HURTS BANK PERFORMANCE: A Micro Analysis
Authors: Emmanuel Obademi Olalekan
Published: October 2021

This study focuses on the interplay of domestic debt and bank performance and thus an attempt has been made to investigate the long-run relationship and direction of causality of the impact of domestic debt on bank performance using different variables herein the earnings per share, return on equity and return on capital employed. The banks used are the First Bank of Nigeria Plc, United Bank for Africa Plc being the two banks with huge penetration in the Nigerian banking industry. A general model for the micro analysis was developed with ample support of a macro model with the background of a simultaneous equation and further use of vector auto-regression estimation procedure. The result of the analysis shows that domestic debt impairs bank performance but the direction of impact on the two banks varies. While domestic debt impacts most negatively on the return on equity of First Bank Plc followed by its earnings per share, for United Bank for Africa domestic debt impacts most negatively on return on capital employed followed by its return on equity. It is believed that though domestic debt can be used as an instrument of economic stabilization, nonetheless, care must be taken to avoid a situation whereby it makes the business environment unfriendly.

Authors: Okpala Kenneth Enoch
Published: October 2021

Corporate governance is a phenomenon that has recently attracted local and foreign interest due to the frequent occurrences of corporate failures experienced by various organizations in both developed and developing nations around the world. Financial statements are the midpoint of this corporate disorder and auditing profession is said to responsible for the disaster. This has brought the question of how efficient is our financial system and the effectiveness of the audit infrastructure. This study investigated the effect of audit committee oversight function on integrity of financial statements as a means preventing organizational failure. The population of this study consisted of 183 public quoted companies in the Nigerian Stock Exchange, 100 medium and large audit firms and 616 investor with about 10% holding in PLC. Data was elicited using structured questionnaires. Hypotheses were confirmed using Z-test. The result shows that there is significant relationship between audit committee activities and integrity of financial statements, which enhances the quality corporate governance and prevents organizational failure. The study recommended that a committed audit committee should be established and members to be appointed should possess analytical skill with strong financial background. The will go a long way to curb the incessant corporate failure in Nigeria.
An Exploratory Study of Perceived Economic Viability of Islamic Banking in Gombe Local Government Area, Gombe State, Nigeria
Authors: Abiah Fada, Kodun
Published: October 2021

The paper set out to ascertain the viewpoints of the people of Gombe L.G.A. to review their perceptions of the economic viability of Islamic banking. The paper presents primary data collected through the use of questionnaire involving a sample of 134 respondents. The survey employs an exploratory factor analysis to examine what the respondents perceive to be the economic viability of Islamic banking in the local government area. The survey confirms that the advent of Islamic banking in the area will bring about economic benefits as it will serve as a means for financial inclusion for the financially excluded and will also serve as a potential vehicle for fund mobilization, create more employment opportunities and encourage foreign investment especially from the Middle East amongst others. However, the paper suggests that in order to actualize these economic benefits, the central bank and other relevant stakeholders including licensed Islamic banks must do enough in the area of creating awareness of Islamic banking and its relevance to the people.

This study sheds light and discuss the western dominance on international communication by looking specifically on theoretical and organizational aspects to achieve the goals of the capitalism which prove to be impossible by using political and military means. 

All of this is far away from the ethical and democracy values including legal standards agreed by the international community to advocate information freedom and building networks to share and guarantee the follow of information globally between nations. 

     Like human rights, protection of marginalized communities, aid and development etc which pass under the cover of communication and information revolution, market needs and other catch words used by the western world to cement its dominance and influence.

     Media today is represents the capitalist corporate sector interests and it became its main tool to achieve its strategic capitalism objectives, third world countries need to face and fight this soft power by looking to fill the technology gap, and raising the awareness, building peace between communities and enhancing the chances of cohesion, and reducing the margins of civil wars. It’s a big demand from these third world communities and its governments since this globalization is threatening the core existence, nationalization, and identity of nations.

A SAÚDE INDÍGENA E AS POLÍTICAS DA VIDA: DISCUSSÕES SOBRE DIREITOS E INTERCULTURALIDADE
Authors: Sbaraini Fabiana Leticia
Published: October 2021

A reflexão deste texto parte da abordagem de algumas dimensões que nos ajudem a construir um cenário históricopolítico e conceitual para pensar a interculturalidade na saúde indígena na contemporaneidade por meio da discussão sobre as relações com o Estado e as políticas da vida, bem como as vinculações de tutela presentes nesta trama que modelou a vida indígena como uma subhumanidade. No que concerne à construção de políticas públicas, estas têm sido permeadas por diálogos, negociações, conflitos, construções históricas e políticas de diferentes grupos socioculturais. Essa característica se acentua na construção da interculturalidade presente na saúde indígena, buscando favorecer espaços de diálogo entre distintas racionalidades e as práticas de saúde, as quais são um tema central na luta dos povos indígenas pela conquista de seus direitos em termos de acessos e serviços com qualidade. Reflexões sobre as políticas da vida e a saúde indígena se tornam elementares para uma compreensão mais ampla sobre o discurso cultural, igualdade e reconhecimento da pluralidade étnica e cultural das sociedades, em especial, no contexto da atenção diferenciada à saúde indígena.
CIRURGIA ESTÉTICA E AS TRANSFORMAÇÕES CORPORAIS NA CONTEMPORANEIDADE
Authors: Santos Áurea Regina Silva Nunes
Published: October 2021

Como parte do desenvolvimento de uma dissertação de mestrado intitulada “Cirurgia estética: subjetividade(s) no fio da navalha”, produzida em 2016, apresento aos leitores, um dos tópicos que considero importante para uma melhor compreensão do proposto no trabalho em que discorro sobre as transformações corporais na contemporaneidade. Falar sobre cirurgia estética ultimamente é algo tido como natural, no entanto, em outros tempos, era considerado um tabu. Discutir sobre as transformações corporais é importante para se entender outras questões sociais, culturais e subjetivas em relação ao nosso corpo e ao corpo do outro. A elaboração dessa pesquisa surgiu pela inquietação diante de um fenômeno percebido e que ganha cada vez mais destaque na sociedade contemporânea, o aumento na busca por cirurgias estéticas. Dessa forma, propomos investigar o que levava alguns indivíduos a buscarem por esse procedimento para modificar os seus corpos e como essas transformações (re)construíam as suas subjetividades. Para alcançar tal objetivo, buscou-se analisar a percepção dos sujeitos sobre os seus corpos antes e depois da cirurgia estética; compreender o que os levou a optarem por essa intervenção para a transformação de seus corpos; avaliando as formas como (re) constroem suas subjetividades
SEGURANÇA PÚBLICA E PESQUISA DE VITIMIZAÇÃO
Authors: Sálvia Denis Berté
Published: October 2021

Diferentes questões envolvendo a qualidade dos dados e informações para análises acerca dos movimentos da criminalidade e de distintas violências sempre preocuparam pesquisadores. Procurando amenizar esse problema, as “pesquisas de vitimização” passaram a ser reconhecidas desde os anos 60 como uma ferramenta que pode auxiliar governos e sociedades a melhor compreender seus problemas ligados à criminalidade e a melhor direcionar ações para resolvê-los. Além disso, recentemente passaram a incorporar investigações sobre outras problemáticas das sociedades, direcionando atenção às percepções de insegurança das populações, suas noções de risco e medo do crime, e as considerações das pessoas a respeito das instituições policiais e de justiça. Considerando a relevância que tais pesquisas vêm adquirindo, a proposta deste trabalho foi realizar um levantamento sobre pesquisas de vitimização, com o foco na análise dos “arranjos institucionais” adotados para a produção de algumas pesquisas. Foram selecionadas as realizadas em nível nacional e internacional, com prioridade para as produzidas de forma regular há mais tempo. Procurou-se descobrir se os arranjos, entendidos como agrupamentos políticos formais entre distintas organizações, agregam valor e contribuem para a produção regulares das pesquisas. O procedimento metodológico assume um caráter múltiplo: por um lado, adota procedimentos de um “estudo de caso” comparado; por outro, um levantamento do tipo “estado da arte” das pesquisas de vitimização. Assim, o trabalho leva à apresentação dos arranjos e ao apontamento de fatores ligados à realização das pesquisas, sejam eles positivos ou negativos quanto à sua aplicabilidade, destacando a variedade de atores envolvidos em cada caso.
POLÍCIA COMUNITÁRIA EM MATO GROSSO: TENSÃO ENTRE ESTADO E SOCIEDADE
Authors: Silva Sebastião Carlos Rodrigues da
Published: October 2021

A tensão entre Estado e sociedade tem sido uma constante ao longo da história, os governos buscam se aproximar da sociedade, esta, cada vez mais exigente. A Polícia Comunitária é uma dessas tentativas. O estudo analisa a implantação do projeto de Polícia Comunitária em Cuiabá, busca identificar a participação da sociedade e se há as pré-condições necessárias à implantação do projeto – sob uma crítica de Michael Oakeshott sobre o racionalismo construtivista. O problema consiste em saber o grau de adequação entre os prérequisitos da Polícia Comunitária e o grau de civismo (capital social) da sociedade cuiabana. A hipótese é que na sociedade cuiabana não há o pré-requisito cívico à efetividade do projeto. Valemo-nos dos conceitos de Polícia Comunitária de Robert Trojanowicz, vigilância panóptica de Michel Foucault, capital social de Robert Putnam e Alex de Tocqueville (como civismo e associativismo). O método de pesquisa é o qualiquantitativo, com a estratégia de pesquisa abdutiva. O recorte são os líderes comunitários; a população dos bairros que tem o projeto implantado e os gestores públicos – utilizamos o grupo focal, survey e a entrevista semiestruturada, respectivamente. Os resultados nos mostram que na sociedade cuiabana não há capital social suficiente à efetividade do projeto de Polícia Comunitária e que este se assemelha a um modelo de policiamento de resolução rápida de problemas.

Published: October 2021

O presente trabalho procura compreender a fase investigativa. Partindo-se da noção de sociedade do risco e emergência penal, busca-se construir uma análise e entendimento de que a fase investigativa pode, por vezes, na prática, ser um mero procedimento inquisitorial no qual o investigado é objeto da ação estatal, e não sujeito de direitos. Buscar-se-á explicar e categorizar o direito penal aplicado. Para isso este ensaio utilizará das lições de campo bourdieusiano, discursando com a compreensão sociológica jurídica que categoriza esse fenômeno em tipos ideias trazida por Selzinck e Nonet, juntamente com a concepção harbermasiana de discurso punitivo.
Plastic Mut(e)ability: Limited Promises of Plasticity
Authors: Dey Tridibesh
Published: October 2021

Plastics are supposed to be infinitely mutable. Yet the enduring legacies of plastic waste and its derivatives persist to tell a different tale. In this paper, based on empirical data from a rapidly urbanising village in Rajasthan, western India, we take the reader into the unfolding ‘social life’ of plastic (im)mutabilities. In tracing plastic’s complicity in configuring new objects, subject-object relations, markets, ensuing socio-economic hierarchies, and the ecological, biological and ethical traces of plastic waste, we present the picture of a plasticised socio-material realm. Here old socio-economic hegemonies and forms of violence are re-entrenched and new relations of deprivation and dependence forged in plastic, linked to wider (capitalist) processes of resource extraction, and abandonment. Therefore, we situate plastic’s multiple (im)mutabilities within an unfolding story of new openings, closures and mutations across scale, inflected by the complex legacies of caste, gender, race and region. Finally, the notion of plastic mut(e)abilities is developed to include occasions of productive hacks and crafts with plastic ‘waste’–ongoing plastic mutabilities–by a marginalised woman which allude to limited possibilities of socio-material change. This helps recover some of the promises of plastic co-produced at the delicate margins and the liminal spaces of a plasticised society.

However, it has been proven by research that half dose of Chlorthalidone is equipotent to the dose of Hydrochlorothiazide in similar combination with Candesartan Cilexetil. At present there is no Liquid Chromatographic (LC) method available for the simultaneous estimation of Candesartan Cilexetil and Chlorthalidone in pharmaceutical dosage form. A simple, rapid, reliable and robust reversed phase ultra-performance liquid Chromatography (RP-UPLC) method was developed as per International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. The best separation was achieved in less than 5 minutes on a 50 × 2.1 mm, 2.2 µm particle size Dionex C18 column with the gradient mobile phase 5 mM, 6.2 ± 0.5 pH ammonium acetate buffer - acetonitrile at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min at 215nm. The detector response was linear in the range of 10-200 ppm of these drugs. LOD obtained was 3.04 ppm for Candesartan Cilexetil, 2.82 ppm for Chlorthalidone. Further evaluation of robustness of this method was carried out using Plackett-Burman verification with four factors two levels (high & low) within analytical QbD-principles using statistical software. The outcome of normal probability and overall desirability plots were found acceptable.

A new RP-HPLC method for the quantitative determination of metformin and sitagliptin in human plasma was developed and validated as per US-FDA guidelines. The drug was spiked in the plasma and extracted with mobile phase by precipitation method. The extracted analyte was injected into Symmetry C18 (4.6 x 150 mm, 3.5μm, Make: XTerra) or equivalent, maintained at ambient temperature and effluent was monitored at 254 nm. The mobile phase consisting of potassium dihydrogen phosphate [pH 5.8]: acetonitrile [HPLC Grade] (65:35 v/v). The flow rate was maintained at 0.9 mL/min. The calibration curve for metformin and sitagliptin was linear from 10.0 to 35.0 µg/mL (r2= 0.999) and 1.0 to 3.5 µg/mL (r2= 0.998) respectively. The inter-day and intra-day precision was found to be within limits. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) for metformin and sitagliptin were found to be 0.026 and 0.70 μg/mL respectively. The average % recovery for metformin and sitagliptin were found to be 98.82-100.03 & 99.76-100.89 % respectively and reproducibility was found to be satisfactory. This RP-HPLC method is suiTable for determining the concentration of metformin and sitagliptin in human plasma and it can applied for routine analysis for determination of the metformin and sitagliptin from dosage form during pharmacokinetic study.

Two simple and sensitive visible spectrophotometric methods have been developed and subsequently validated for the estimation of lansoprazole in bulk and pharmaceutical formulation. Method A is based on formation of greenish blue colored complex with ferric nitrate and potassium ferricyanide which exhibit absorption maximum at 713 nm and obeyed beer's law in the concentration range of 0.5 – 6 µg/mL. Method B is based on formation of orange-red colored complex with ferric nitrate and 2,2’ bipyridyl which exhibit absorption maximum at 520 nm and obeyed Beer’s law in the concentration range of 1 – 8 μg/mL. The results of analysis for both the methods have been validated statistically and by recovery studies. The proposed methods are sensitive, accurate, precise and economical for estimation of lansoprazole in bulk and pharmaceutical formulation.

This paper describes a stream biomonitoring program that builds capacity in undergraduate college students in the field of freshwater ecology and conservation. The program involves sampling of aquatic macroinvertebrates and hydrological parameters in streams of the state of Meghalaya, India. Several colleges from Shillong initiated short-term, one-year and long-term biomonitoring of streams in East Khasi Hills and Ri-Bhoi districts. Nine stream locations sampled over October-December in 2014 provided a snapshot of physical and biotic conditions, thus enabling the examination of spatial trends in water quality parameters and aquatic biota. A year-long sampling study from 2014-2015 provided a seasonal view of stream parameters at Lwai (clean) and Umkaliar (moderately polluted) streams. Results from both sampling sets suggest that turbidity negatively affected the richness of pollution sensitive taxa. Dissolved Oxygen values were lower in polluted streams and were non-significantly lower in summer than in winter. After an initial training in the field, the sampling was conducted by college students under supervision from their lecturers. Data obtained on macroinvertebrates adds to the sparse information available on stream ecosystems in the biodiversity-rich northeast Indian region. We hope the paper provides a template for monitoring of vital ecosystems in this and similar regions.

The reason is not only nostalgia for the family relics that has sunk into the nonexistence of the earthquake, but always living in our hearts, like the invisible Berlin Wall... The books are written expertly. The author, using his unique gift, a brilliant knowledge of folk life, thinking, psychology, takes the 1915 Genocide and the earthquake as the main axis of
the story. The trilogy is also distinguished by incorruptible courage, truthful generalizations and omniscience of all the events of the RA.

between Armenians and Kurds.Armenians and Kurds have lived side by side
for many centuries and they have communicated as neighbor countries. The
communication has been of various types, including both political and
economic spheres. Meanwhile, the historic destiny of these two neighbor countries was
complex and contradictory. At the end of IX and at the beginning of XX
centuries Kurdish movements co-acted with Armenian forces in some places,
nevertheless they did not contribute to the formation of alliance.
Nonetheless, the historical logics prompts that sooner or later the
Kurdish people will have their own national country. Thus, in the future, the
destinies of two neighbor countries will unavoidably collide. The Kurdish factor had a negative influence especially in the Armenian question. This factor typologically belongs to the main questions of realizing Armenian genocide. Consequently, the anti-Armenian actions done by Kurds are observed as the result of the policy of The Ottoman Empire.
