Multinational Corporations as Mechanisms of Imperialism in the Third World Countries: A Study of Oil Multinationals in Nigeria.
Authors: Yange Ember
Published: August 2024

This study investigates the role of multinational oil corporations in perpetuating neo-colonialism in Nigeria. The research utilized qualitative methodology, employing secondary data sources to examine the phenomenon under investigation. Drawing on a structuralist and Marxist theoretical framework, the research focuses on how these corporations, specifically Shell, Chevron, Total, Eni, and ExxonMobil, operate as instruments of exploitation in developing countries. The authors argue that despite generating significant revenue from oil extraction – a staggering 45.6 billion in 2022 – the Niger Delta region, where these operations are concentrated, remains underdeveloped and marginalized. This stark contrast highlights the exploitative nature of these corporations, who reap immense profits while leaving behind environmental degradation and social inequity. The study concludes that the relationship between oil multinationals and Nigeria mirrors broader patterns of neo-colonialism, where economic power translates into political influence, perpetuating a cycle of dependency and underdevelopment. To mitigate the negative consequences of multinational corporations operating in the developing world, the study recommend strengthening government oversight and rigorously enforcing sustainable practices.
Percepción de la calidad de vida de mujeres que ejercen teletrabajo administrativo
Authors: Aguilar Guirola Diana Alexandra , Castillo Rivas Raquel Andrea , Bonilla Balcaceres Sandra Gabriela
Published: August 2024

The main objective of the present study was to examine the perception of quality of work life among women engaged in administrative telecommuting in subcontracting microenterprises. Using a qualitative methodology and phenomenological approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 women who met the study’s criteria. The interview questions focused on three categories of interest: quality of work life, sociodemographic factors influencing quality of life, and psycho-affective characteristics surrounding quality of work life. The interviews were transcribed and coded into matrices that supported the conceptualization of the experiences shared by the participating women regarding the three categories of interest, and allowed for the identification of emerging categories in their discourses. It was found that women interpret quality of work life in various ways. It was observed how telecommuting aligns with their social construction of women’s roles, reinforcing the social assignment of caregiving tasks and domestic responsibilities. These assignments are deeply internalized by the participants, as they are not questioned but assumed as part of being a working woman. The experiences shared by the interviewed women demonstrate a positive attitude and high motivation towards work, as well as voluntariness and productivity. However, there is also a lack of recognition of their rights regarding the use and respect of their personal, social, and work time, and opportunities for growth. This research highlights the importance of understanding and interpreting different perspectives to improve working conditions and satisfaction in this specific context.

Authors: Saidu Fika Ibrahim , Adeyanju O. , Ikwuemesi P. , Olokpo M. A. , Ayodabo I. I.
Published: August 2024

Hydroxypropylation of sorghum starch for a potential pharmaceutical application as an excipient in tablet formulations was carried out. The starch was chemically modified via hydroxypropylation and characterized by SEM, XRD and FTIR. SEM showed irregular shape while the modified starch has regular shape and fibrous long distort shape. The XRD revealed the native and modified starches are completely amorphous in nature as there were no sharp peaks observed. The FTIR spectra showed broad band located within the region 3800-3500cm-1 which appeared in the native and modified starches indicating the free OH stretching vibration as well as intra-molecular hydrogen bonding in starch molecules. The major functional groups in the native starch were 1736cm-1 (C=O), 1625cm-1 (-COO-), 1427cm-1 (-COO-), 1227cm-1 (-C=O-), 1162cm-1 (C-O stretching and C-H stretching). During hydroxypropylation there were introduction of new functional groups observed at 1800-1500cm-1 (-COO-) and 1606-1632cm-1 (OCH2COONa) respectively. The moisture content of the native starch was 5.46±0.00 and modified Starch was 4.82±0.01 . The pH of the native and hydroxypropyl starch were 7.00±0.01 and 7.29±0.02 respectively. Relative viscosity value of 1.70±0.08 and 2.76±0.00 were observed for the native and modified starches respectively. Water holding capacity of the native and modified starches were 28.35±0.20 and 33.25±0.01 respectively. The flow properties of the starch granules show low angles of repose, high flow rate which fall within hausner ratio and carr’s index for tablet formulation. Hence, Modification of native sorghum starch by hydroxypropylation shows better physicochemical properties than the native which enhanced a better efficacy in the tablet granule and flow properties in drug formulation.
School Heads Paternalistic Leadership and Organizational Outcomes: Basis for Re-Mapping Leadership Models in Basic Education Institutions
Authors: Francisco Florante A.
Published: August 2024

Leadership in educational institutions is crucial in promoting effective teaching and learning environments. This dissertation examined the impact of Paternalistic Leadership (PL) within the context of Philippine Basic Education Institutions and explored how this culturally embedded leadership style impacts organizational outcomes and the relationships between school leaders and teachers. This study employs a descriptive-correlational research design, integrating both descriptive and predictive elements, to explore the relationship between paternalistic leadership styles of school heads and various organizational outcomes in basic education institutions. Among the three types of Paternalistic Leadership, morality-based and benevolent leadership styles have a strong positive effect on all organizational outcomes, and authoritarian leadership significantly influences school culture and job satisfaction to a lesser extent. High levels of trust in the leader and interactional justice contribute to a positive work environment. However, these mediators do not significantly influence the relationship between leadership styles and organizational outcomes, suggesting other factors might play a more substantial role. Demographic factors do not significantly impact perceptions of leadership styles, indicating that leadership effectiveness transcends these characteristics. Significant correlations between OPCR ratings to commitment, work motivation, and school culture highlight the importance of structured performance evaluations. The strong direct influence of paternalistic leadership on organizational outcomes, as shown by SEM analysis, emphasizes the importance of supportive and caring leadership behaviors in fostering a productive and satisfied workforce, despite the non-significant mediating effects of trust in leader and interactional justice.

Published: August 2024

This study assesses the influence of leadership accountability on improving service delivery at Ocean Road Cancer Institute, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The specific objectives of this study were to: determine the effect of financial accountability on service delivery; determine the effect of legal framework accountability on improving service delivery; and investigate the influence of management accountability on improving service delivery at Ocean Road Cancer Institute in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The study was conducted at the Ocean Road Cancer Institute in Dar es Salaam as a case study. A total of only 110 were filled in and returned, which gave adequate information required for the study. The sample size was selected using simple random and purposive sampling methods. Mixed methods (qualitative and quantitative data) were used to collect, process, and analyze the data. Qualitative data were analyzed through content analysis, while the Microsoft Excel program was used for analyzing quantitative data. Basically, primary data is collected using questionnaires, and secondary data is collected with the aid of a documentary review. The general study findings indicated that the legal framework increased efficiency in service delivery at the Ocean Road Cancer Institute, management accountability helped to ensure efficient utilization of resources, which in turn improved service delivery, and financial accountability helped to ensure funds are used in a transparent and accountable manner at the Ocean Road Cancer Institute. However, corruption, nepotism, misuse of resources, and a lack of transparency and accountability were the challenges that prevented ORCI from providing services effectively. However, the study recommends that the government needs to formulate an effective policy that could address problems associated with ICT facilities, and the policy also needs to solve the problems adequately so that the workers can provide quality service by using advanced computerized systems.

Dırections of Voice Substitutions Without Meaning in Different Languages
Authors:   Azerbaijan University of Languages., Abbasova Sadagat
Published: August 2024

All voice substitutions, including voice substitutions that do not express meaning, are directed events, and this direction is directed from the left member to the right member of the substitution. The difference between the left and right members of a substitution consisting of any two linguistic elements acts as an important feature and indicates the direc- tion of the change manifested in the substitution. Since the beginning of the transformation process is related to the left member, the left member is considered as the output form or initial form. By distinguishing one of the many variants of each morpheme as an output form or an initial form, a morpho-phonological description can be systematically presented. Putting the issue in this way can shed light on the solution to the problem of determining the initial form and direction of change. This problem is discussed in the article.

The image of Greek sages in Iskandarnames
Authors:   Tashkent State University of Uzbek Language and Literature named after Alisher Navoi., Ismoilov Ilyos
Published: August 2024

The theme of Iskandar appeared in the history of world and literature in connection with the phenomenon of Alexander the Great and spread throughout the centuries. This topic had almost a history of twenty centuries long until the time of Alisher Navoi. It is noteworthy that Nizami Ganjavi first brought this topic into the tradition of writing khamsa, and the main attention was paid to the nature of story of the battles. Iskander’s theme has been able to preserve its original features despite the passing of many centuries, surrounded by cultures and beliefs. One of the important indicators pointing to the authenticity of this topic is the images of Greek sages, which are an important component of Iskandarnames in the East. Although these images were influenced by the Eastern worldview and Islamic ideology, they did not completely lose their “identity”. Researching the genesis and gradual development of these images, studying their artistic descriptions help to imagine the creative individuality, outlook and skills of certain creative personalities. Therefore, in this article, the images of Greek sages are analyzed on the example of “Saddi Iskandari” by Alisher Navoi and “Iskandarnama” by Nizami Ganjavi. The historical development of the issue, its scale and the process of reworking in the work of Navoi are revealed.

Authors:   National University of Uzbekistan, Kalanov Komil
Published: August 2024

In the article, the author compares the symbol of "prayers", which have a special place in religious relations, through the category of "sanctity". In explaining the problem, sociological theoretical- methodological concepts are described directly with the data of field research results. Also, the social characteristics of the sanctity of prayers in periodic indicators and its transformation into an information society are analyzed from the position of a sociologist. As the prayer is raised as a "code of sanctity", the author puts forward the issue of applying its object of research not only to the religious content, but also to the modern informed society as a problem with its philosophical, anthropological, aesthetic, psychological, linguistic and historical features. The theories of symbolic interactionism, structuralism and systematic approaches form the theoretical-methodological basis of the problem. In general, socio- cultural aspects of prayers in the form of a social symbol of sanctity in a changing society, transforming from traditional to modern, are brought to the attention of researchers for comprehensive consideration.

Quality and Skill-based Assessment in Higher Education
Authors:   Azerbaijan University of Languages., Iskandarova Gulnara
Published: August 2024

One of the most important components of instructional programs is evaluation, which indicates an actual dedication to the execution and involvement of the educational system. As an educational assessment tool, we must keep in mind that various assessments are appropriate for different learning requirements and student capacities. No evaluation is without restrictions, and its advantages include validity, reliability, and objectivity. It is the result of the pupils’ performance and accomplishments. Students’ work performance varies according to their excitement, motiva- tion, competence, and ability. The selection of assessment is critical for increasing the desire of learners to finish the task and for teachers to decide if it previously represented their goals or not. Instructors must be creative, attractive, and creative in managing student assessments. Edu- cators must be creative, engaging, and inventive in managing assessment tasks so that students are excited and interested in undertaking all sorts of exams, including traditional ones. Whatever form of evaluation is used, the purpose of implementation is to deliver direct benefits to students. All kinds of assessments, including projects, portfolios, and others, serve to fulfill the fundamental objective of evaluating and triggering student achievement and making visible progress.

Published: August 2024

Lexicography studies are carried out within the framework of dif- ferent methods and procedures compared to previous years. Accordingly, the methods of quantitative and qualitative research on the relationships between languages are also changing. The science and art of coding the words in a language and making a dictionary in a sequential and annotated manner is called lexicography or lexicography. The value of dictionaries is indisputable in carrying all the elements of a nation’s culture and therefore its language, that is, its vocabulary, from the past to the future. However, it is thought that it is necessary to prepare a dictionary of the elements that make up the vocabulary not only in alphabetical order but also themati- cally. The aim of this study is to identify idioms and compound words formed with the word “eye” in Turkey Turkish and Uzbek and to establish thematic relationships between vocabulary items. Considering the diffe- rences between historical dictionaries and modern lexicography studies, it is presented that thematic dictionary studies will play an important role in creating texts aimed at gaining and developing reading-comprehension and listening-comprehension skills for the purpose of language teaching, using vocabulary items formed with the word “eye”. The importance of including corpus linguistics studies, especially for the preparation of the- matic language dictionaries, has been emphasized.
Investigation of Folk Culture Features in Nazar Eşankul’s “Investment” Story
Authors:   Ankara Hacı Bayram Veli Üniversitesi., Bekiroğlu Hasan
Published: August 2024

Nazar Eşankul, born on June 15, 1962, is one of the most important authors of contemporary Uzbek literature. Throughout his life, he witnes- sed the last stages of the period when Russia invaded all of Turkestan and Uzbekistan, implementing policies of repression, assimilation, censorship, erasing national and historical values, exploiting societal resources, and corrupting the society from moral and religious perspectives. In our analysis of the story titled “Invasion,” we will primarily fo- cus on demonstrating how Nazar Eşankul extensively uses elements of folk culture in his work. We will categorize the identified elements of folk cultu- re such as idioms, folktales, and legends, under appropriate headings and page numbers. We will also reveal how the author, utilizing these elements of folk culture, narrates how the Soviet Union deceived the Turks with plenty of slogans, attempted to transform the noble Turkic society into sheep after fully invading Turkestan, and looted all the wealth, reducing the country to ruins. The story further illustrates how the Turkish nation turned into sheep, while the Russians transformed into the most frequent- ly used folk element, “beast and monster.” Additionally, we will uncover the author’s intention to shed light on historical events and portray the helplessness of a nation that has lost its independence, using painful expe- riences and symbolic expressions in his storytelling, drawing from events of his own childhood.

Between Madness and Sanity: Examining Suicide Ideation in the Female Characters in “The Yellow Wallpaper” and The Bell Jar
Authors: Singha Rajasmita
Published: August 2024

In this paper, we will discuss the power dynamics that drive gendered conversations and the suicide ideation that arises from the disproportionate exercise of societal power on the female individual. This paper explores the theme of suicide narratives in literature, focusing on Charlotte Perkins Gilman's short story “The Yellow Wallpaper” (1892), and Sylvia Plath's novel The Bell Jar (1963). Suicide narratives in literature bring to light the intricate intersections of mental illness, societal pressures, and the quest for self-identity. Historically, suppression and oppression have elicited varied responses in women, including submission (wherein they conform completely to their society), martyrdom, and ostracism (the latter two were performed when women proved ‘insubordinate’). In Gilman’s story, submission to ‘better advice’ foreshadows the narrator’s descent into dissociation. In Plath’s novel, the protagonist becomes alienated from the world around her; her body becomes her enemy, and she tries unsuccessfully to escape it. Ultimately, she sees the value of her life and strives to continue. The two narratives highlight the growing need to understand the detrimental impact of conforming to social conventions even when they prove harmful to the individual. Moreover, the interactions between the power exerted by said societal norms and the female-gendered psyche are analysed. In this paper, we will use Foucault’s opinions on suicide, and the doctor-patient relationship between society and the psychologically ill individual, Gilbert and Gubar’s thoughts on female agency to analyse the texts.
Modernism, Capitalism, and the Everyday: A Study of Haruki Murakami’s The Rat Series with Reference to Lefebvre’s Critique of the Everyday
Authors: Rahman Anisur
Published: August 2024

In his discussion on everydayness, Ben Highmore cited an example from the life of Sherlock Holmes, who is repulsed by the idea of everyday life but at the same time, the everyday becomes an intellectual space for him, and he seeks the truth within the everyday. Like Sherlock Holmes, everydayness that is contrasted with macro events of a time has become an intellectual space in literary theory and a voice of subversion in literature. This intellectual space, where the mundane becomes profound, is a fascinating area of study. Written against the macro events of his time in Japan, such as the economic bubble and the students’ protests, Haruki Murakami’s fiction tells stories of subversion through the everydayness of his characters who resist the coercion of capitalism into their ordinary sphere. Their subversion is shown through simple acts such as walking away from watching the news, refusing to go to a job or refusing money offered by capitalistic forces. In this paper, I have attempted to study how bourgeois capitalism coerces into the everyday and how the characters of Haruki Murakami’s The Rat Series resist this coercion. This paper will take into account the observations of various theorists on everydayness with special reference to the works of Lefebvre.

Existen otros referentes como la tasa de deserción o abandono escolar, o variables sociales, económicas o psicológicas que pueden influir en el desempeño y rendimiento. Se puede encontrar una gran cantidad de artículos de investigación que realizan el estudio y análisis de la relación entre rendimiento académico y rasgos de personalidad, aplicados a diferentes perfiles. Por este motivo, se plantea identificar los rasgos de personalidad de alumnos de primer semestre de estudiantes del área de economía. Es un estudio descriptivo, dentro de investigación de campo. La población consta de 28 alumnos y se utiliza como instrumento el test de personalidad EneagramaNauta (versión 16), el cual plantea nueve rasgos desde el punto de vista psicológico. De acuerdo con los resultados obtenidos se concluye que el rasgo predominante en el grupo es el de triunfador, seguido del ayudador; si se toma en cuenta el sexo, en el masculino el predominante es el triunfador, en tanto que en el femenino el predominante es el leal, mientras que, al considerar al rendimiento, el rasgo predominante de los estudiantes con mejores promedios es el de pensador o investigador.
Problemas éticos en la investigación científica
Authors:   Campus Universitario Siglo XXI, Águila Camacho Sonia Yadira
Published: August 2024

En “Problemas éticos en la investigación científica”, Sonia Yadira Águila Camacho presenta algunas sugerencias respecto a la producción científica. La autora afirma que la ética sostiene todo el aparato de esta ocupación, desde el diseño del protocolo, hasta los fines, los medios, las acciones, la publicación y hasta los efectos causados, y dadas algunas contrariedades acontecidas en ese medio, propone replantear el sentido de la investigación científica. Lo anterior se expone en tres apartados: en el primero se parte de la pregunta sobre los fines y medios de la investigación, aquí interviene el tema de las políticas, dado que de ellas se desprende la regulación de este quehacer, no solo en cuanto a procesos administrativos, sino también respecto a sus límites y alcances. En el segundo apartado toma como punto de partida algunos fraudes recientes en el ámbito de las publicaciones para esbozar límites en el uso de las tecnologías, retoma la pregunta clásica entre lo que se puede y se debe hacer para destacar la perspectiva ética. La tercera parte la dedica a resaltar el papel de la universidad en la formación de investigadores comprometidos con los problemas actuales y con su círculo más grande que es la humanidad. Ahí se concibe algunos aspectos que pueden incluir los estudios académicos, como la importancia de la crítica, el reconocimiento de los errores, la auto-reflexión y el cuidado del otro. Se señala el sentido reflexivo en la actividad, ya que en ocasiones se soslaya a lo práctico o beneficioso para unos pocos. Por último, en consonancia con los tres apartados se concluye con algunas reflexiones finales sobre el rumbo de este ejercicio.
Educación superior inclusiva de las personas con discapacidad
Authors:   Instituto de Estudios Sobre la Universidad. Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México, Guerra González María del Rosario
Published: August 2024

En el capítulo “Educación superior inclusiva de las personas con discapacidad”, María del Rosario Guerra González parte de los documentos emanados de la UNESCO y de la Ley General de Educación Superior, mexicana, aprobada en 2021. Asocia los textos anteriores con la Convención Internacional de Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad. En todos los escritos anteriores se enfoca el tema partiendo de las barreras impuestas por el entorno social, las cuales impiden la integración de individuos con alguna limitación permanente, dentro de una diversidad de casos particulares. La autora habla de una educación inclusiva, que deje de exigir un modelo de alumno con características medias, ubicado como “normal”. Lo diferente necesita ser parte del hacer en el aula, donde se incorpore a cada persona con discapacidad porque no es posible establecer sugerencias generales dada la heterogeneidad de casos; las necesidades inclusivas de una persona no vidente son diferentes a lo que requiere quien no puede moverse o no escucha. El objetivo es lograr individuos agentes de su propia vida, conscientes del esfuerzo que necesitan hacer, activos en donde decidan desenvolverse. En el capítulo se analizan las dificultades más frecuentes para lograr lo anterior y las posibilidades de solucionarlas.

Formación académica y humana en la universidad
Authors:   Grupo Educativo Siglo 21, Cardoso Malaquias Reyna
Published: August 2024

El capítulo “Formación académica y humana en la universidad”, escrito por Reyna Cardoso Malaquias, consta de dos partes, el primer apartado considera la función de la universidad como institución formadora de su comunidad estudiantil en el sentido académico y humano, donde no se ceda ante la tecnologización por el uso de las TIC. Presenta una aproximación al término vocación para identificarlo con la elección del ejercicio profesional, visto como concepto integral del desarrollo personal. En la segunda sección se plantea cómo el modelo educativo por competencias pondera en el campo laboral profesional y se cuestiona el conflicto de mantener la vocación, ante la necesidad de obtener un ingreso económico y con riesgo de deshumanización por un excesivo uso de las TIC. Se propone aplicar la perspectiva de Edgar Morin mediante una intención holística de la educación que va más allá del mero desarrollo de habilidades. La reflexión final advierte sobre la errónea visión de los egresados universitarios como objetos o medios de producción.

Authors:   Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México, Heredia García Gerardo
Published: August 2024

Se reflexiona sobre el uso racional de medicamentos como responsabilidad universitaria. Incluye la prescripción, dispensación, y administración de medicamentos de manera adecuada, segura y efectiva. La responsabilidad universitaria se refiere al papel que las instituciones educativas tienen en formar profesionales de la salud con conocimientos sobre el uso racional y ético de medicamentos, con un sentido humanista. Por lo anteriormente mencionado, la investigación de Heredia aborda la importancia de que las universidades integren en sus planes asignaturas y/o planes de estudio, que proporcionen a los futuros profesionales de la salud una mejor comprensión sobre los principios del uso racional de medicamentos. Esta actitud requiere el apoyo de los docentes, imprescindible para lograr dicha comprensión. Además, se toman en cuenta aspectos de igualdad, equidad, pluriculturalidad, biocentrismo e incluso el uso de IA que pueden ser factores para desarrollar un mejor aprendizaje. El autor concluye que la educación superior debe reformarse para lograr una mejor integración en la sociedad y una mayor comprensión sobre el uso adecuado de medicamentos, con el fin de formar profesionales competentes y responsables en el área de salud y a la vez capaces de evaluar y resolver problemas actuales.
