Mikä tekee nuorisotyöstä monikulttuurisen?
Authors: Honkasalo Veronika , Souto Anne-Mari , Suurpää Leena
Published: May 2024

Vaikka monikulttuurisuus on sosiaalisen vahvistamisen ja aktiivisen kansalaisuuden rinnalla kirjattu nuorisolain (2006) tavoitteiksi, sitä on tapana käsitellä lähinnä maahanmuutto- ja kotouttamispolitiikkaan liittyvänä asiana. Nuoren sukupolven ja sen elinympäristöjen monikulttuuristuminen ei siis ole vielä haastanut pohtimaan sosiaaliseen vahvistamiseen ja aktiiviseen kansalaisuuteen sisältyviä yhteiskunnallisia muutospaineita nimenomaan eritaustaisten nuorten ja nuorisotoiminnan näkökulmista.
Tässä raportissa tarkastellaan monikulttuurisuuden haasteita nuorisotyössä keskusteluttaen nuorisolain sisältöjä yhdenvertaisuuslain ja sen kautta avautuvien lähtökohtien kanssa. Raportti pyrkii tarjoamaan konkreettisia välineitä nuorisotyön monikulttuuristen haasteiden tunnistamiseksi sekä tekemään ehdotuksia, millä keinoin niihin voidaan vastata hallinnossa ja käytännön toiminnoissa.
“DATAİZM”E KARŞI VERİ GÜVENLİĞİ VE ADALETİ
Authors: Yaşar Ümütlü Ayşe , Afşar Önder Aytaç
Published: May 2024

Dataizm ve veri adaleti, teknoloji dünyasında birbirine zıt iki paradigma haline gelmiş durumdadır. Dataizm genellikle kişisel verilerin toplanması ve optimizasyonunun aralıksız takibiyle ilişkilendirilir. Veriye dayalı karar vermenin, otomasyonun ve teknolojinin toplumsal ilerlemeye yol açacağı anlayışıyla karakterize edilir. Bu nedenle dataizm savunucuları, verimlilik, kolaylık ve yenilik umuduyla ne kadar çok veri toplanır ve işlenirse hayatlarımızın o kadar iyi olacağını iddia etmektedirler. Fakat veri adaleti anlayışı, ilkesiz bir veri toplayıcılığına kesinlikle tezat bir fikri savunmaktadır. Veri ekosisteminde adalet, eşitlik ve bireysel hakların ve mahremiyetin korunması ilkelerine dayanması gerektiğini vurgulamaktadır. Dolayısıyla veri adaleti savunucuları, veriyle ilgili eşitsizliklerin, algoritmalardaki önyargı ve ayrımcılık potansiyelinin ve bireylerin refahı pahasına gözetim veya kâr amacıyla verilerin kötüye kullanılmasının ciddiyetle dikkate alınması gerektiğini vurgulamaktadırlar. Bu makalede, veri merkezli yaklaşımların etik ve sosyal sonuçlarını irdeleyerek bu iki paradigma arasındaki gerilimi araştırılmıştır. Veriye dayalı verimlilik ile bireysel ve toplumsal hakların korunması arasındaki dengeler hakkında soruları gündeme getirilmiştir. Verilerin hayatımızda giderek daha merkezi bir rol oynadığı bir çağda, vericilik veya veri toplayıcılığa karşı veri adaleti perspektiflerini anlamak ve uzlaştırmak, daha adil ve sorumlu bir veri geleceğini şekillendirmek için hayati önem taşımaktadır.
LOZAN ANTLAŞMASI’YLA YENİDEN KURULAN BİR ULUSLARARASI İŞ BİRLİĞİ: ULUSLARARASI GÜMRÜK TARİFELERİ BÜROSU
Authors: Örsten Esirgen Seda
Published: May 2024

1890 yılında Brüksel’de imzalanan “Gümrük Tarifelerinin Yayımlanması ve Uluslararası Birlik Kurulmasına İlişkin Sözleşme”, Uluslararası Gümrük Tarifeleri Bürosu’nun kuruluşunu sağlarken, birçok devletle birlikte Osmanlı Devleti de, gelen davet üzerine yeni oluşan bu iş birliği içinde yer almıştır. Konuyla ilgili güncel gelişmeleri takip etmekle birlikte, Osmanlı Devleti bu üyelikten bir süre sonra çekilme kararı almış; yine de 20. yüzyılın başında konuyla ilgili gerçekleştirilen uluslararası konferanslar izlenmiştir. Bununla birlikte, İmparatorluğun yıkılış sürecinin sonunda Lozan Konferansı’nda birçok uluslararası hukuk meselesi arasında uluslararası antlaşmalar ve uluslararası örgüt üyelikleri de yer alırken, Uluslararası Gümrük Tarifeleri Bürosu tekrar gündeme gelmiştir. Lozan Antlaşması’nda yeniden yürürlüğe girmesi kabul edilen düzenlemelerden biri olan bu Sözleşme’yle, Cumhuriyet döneminde uluslararası ticaret konusundaki iş birliği yeniden kurulmuştur. Konuyla ilgili olarak Türk hukuk tarihi, siyasi tarih ve iktisat tarihi açısından literatürde bulunan boşluğu doldurmayı amaçlayan bu çalışma, Osmanlı ve Cumhuriyet dönemi arşiv belgeleri üzerinden uluslararası ticarette gümrük tarifelerinin yayınlanması konusundaki uluslararası iş birliğinin hukuksal gelişim sürecini ele almaktadır.
İSLAM AİLE HUKUKUNUN KANUNLAŞTIRILMASINDA ŞERİ HUKUKA YAPILAN ATIFLAR: MALEZYA ÖRNEĞİ
Authors: Kılınç Ahmet , Argunhan Betül
Published: May 2024

Malezya 1957 yılında bağımsızlığını kazanmış, 1963 yılında Federal Anayasa ilan edilmiştir. Anayasa’ya göre Federasyon’un dini İslam’dır. Kuruluşundan bugüne çeşitli kanunlaştırma faaliyetleri yürüten ülke, hukukun belirli alanlarında Müslümanlar için ayrı, gayrimüslimler için ayrı kanunlar çıkarmaktadır. Bu minvalde 1984 yılında Müslüman vatandaşlar için Malezya İslam Aile Kanununu (Islamic Family Law Act) hazırlanmıştır. Bu Kanun, aile hukukuna dair birtakım konuları derinlemesine düzenlemesine karşın, diğer birtakım konularda ‘şeri hukuk’ olarak nitelendirebileceğimiz ‘Hukum Syara’ya atıf yapmak suretiyle daha yüzeysel hükümler ihtiva etmiştir. Şeri hukuka yapılan atıflar Malay öğretisindeki bazı görüşlerce eleştirilmektedir. Bu çalışmada Malay öğretisi ve hukuk uygulaması dikkate alınarak, şeri hukuka atıfta bulunan kanun hükümleri incelenmiştir. Bunun için sırasıyla; kanun metninde geçen ‘Hukum Syara’ ve ‘Recognized Mazhabs’ ibareleri değerlendirilmiştir. Devamında, belirlenen konuların Kanun’daki hükümlerine ve İslam hukuk eserlerindeki görüşlere bakılmıştır. Çalışmayla elde edilen çıkarımlar öz itibariyle şu şekildedir: İlk olarak, Kanun’un başlığında ‘Islamic law’ denmesine mukabil, metin içinde şeri hukuka atıf yapılacağı hallerde ‘Hukum Syara’ ibaresinin tercih edilmesi dikkate değerdir. Kanaatimizce Islamic Law ibaresi kanunlaştırma amacını ifade ederken, Hukum Syara ibaresinin kullanıldığı yerler daha kapsamlı bir kurallar bütününe işaret etmektedir. İkinci olarak, ‘Recognized Mazhabs’ ifadesiyle, Kanun bağlamında tanınmış, muteber mezheplerin (Şafii, Hanefi, Maliki, Hanbeli) kastedildiği anlaşılmaktadır. Kanun koyucunun yer yer Hukum Syara’ya atıf yapmasının sebepleri dört ana başlıkta ele alınabilir. Bunlardan ilki, kanun koyucunun, örf ve ananevi uygulamalarını şeri hukukla bağdaştırma çabası; ikincisi, hukuki esneklik ve dinamizmi sağlamak ve uygulayıcının takdir yetkisini genişletmek gayesi; üçüncüsü sabit naslarla ve ayrıntılı şekilde düzenlenen konularda tekrara düşmekten kaçınmak ve dördüncüsü ise ülkenin düalist hukuki yapısının şeri hukuka başvurmayı gerektirmesidir

Denetim görevini ihmal suçu Türk Ceza Kanunu’nun 251. Maddesinde düzenlenmiştir. Kamu İdaresinin Güvenilirliğine ve İşleyişine Karşı Suçlardan birisi olan denetim görevini ihmal suçu ile denetim yükümlülüğünü yerine getirmeyerek zimmet veya irtikap suçlarının oluşmasına imkân sağlayan kamu görevlisi cezalandırılmaktadır. 251. Maddenin ilk fıkrasında özel bir iştirak hükmü getirilmiş ve zimmet veya irtikap suçlarının işlendiğini bilmesine rağmen denetim yükümlülüğünü yerine getirmeyen kamu görevlisinin bu suçların müşterek faili sayılarak cezalandırılması kabul edilmiştir. İkinci fıkrada ise denetim görevini ihmal bağımsız bir suç olarak düzenlenmiş, zimmet veya irtikap suçlarının işlendiğini bilmeyen ancak kasıtlı olarak denetim yükümlülüğünü yerine getirmeyerek bu suçların oluşmasına neden olan failin sorumluluğu hüküm altına alınmıştır. Her iki fıkrada da denetim yükümlülüğü bulunan kamu görevlisinin kasıtlı olarak görevini ihmal etmesi söz konusu iken, ilk fıkrada fail işlendiğini bildiği zimmet veya irtikap suçlarına göz yummakta, ikinci fıkrada ise fail bu suçların işlendiğini bilmemektedir. Tek bölümden oluşan çalışmada hem maddenin birinci fıkrasında düzenlenen zimmet veya irtikap suçlarının işlenmesine göz yumma, hem de denetim görevini ihmal suçu unsurlarına ayrılarak incelenmeye çalışılmıştır.

Published: May 2024

Eine Familienberatung kann Familien unterstützen. Unterschieden wird zwischen der Fachberatung, welche fachliche Informationen vermittelt, und der psychosozialen Beratung, welche Personen darin unterstützt, belastende Erlebnisse zu verarbeiten. Familien, die in schwierige Situationen geraten, benötigen häufig beides. Wenn beispielsweise ihr Kind ein herausforderndes Verhalten in der Schule zeigt, benötigt die Familie Wissen über diese Besonderheit und darüber, wie sie ihr Kind pädagogisch fördern kann. Die Familie braucht aber auch Unterstützung, um diese Situation emotional verarbeiten zu können. Im folgenden Artikel soll der Frage nachgegangen werden, wie man die Fachberatung und die psychosoziale Beratung verbinden kann.

SETTLEMENT OF A LOAN SUBJECT TO FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK AFTER ELIMINATION OF THE INDEXATION MECHANISM ACCORDING TO COURT RECOMMENDATIONS
Authors: Kozłowski Cezary , Kowalewski Mirosław
Published: May 2024

By 2017, nearly one million foreign currency risk loans (indexed to foreign currencies or denominated in foreign currencies) were concluded, and their value reached nearly PLN 200 billion in 2011 (according to data from the Credit Information Bureau, 899 000 people had a loan in CHF by mid-2022). In 2008, an economic crisis arose, which resulted, among other things, in the depreciation of the złoty against foreign currencies. As a result, some borrowers, despite several years of systematic loan repayment, had a debt (capital to be paid) in PLN that was greater than the amount of the loan taken out and, in some cases, even exceeded the value of the real estate, which constituted security for repayment of the loan taken out.
The above facts have contributed to the decision of some borrowers to apply to the courts against the banks that granted them an unfavourable loan in a foreign currency (mainly in CHF), claiming the invalidation of the agreement or an alternative claim consisting in the settlement of the loan after the elimination of the indexation mechanism to a foreign currency in its entirety (the so-called 'de-franking' of the agreement). If the credit agreement is invalidated, the parties must settle the sums of money transferred to each other under the invalid agreement. In the second solution, however, there is a need to settle the credit indexed (denominated) to the CHF currency after the elimination of the indexation mechanism in its entirety.
The settlement of the example loan agreement, assuming that both the initial loan balance and the individual loan instalments were not converted into CHF and that the loan would bear interest at the bank's rate and margin indicated in the agreement, will result in an overpayment of the loan on the part of the borrower. In contrast, on the part of the bank, there will be a liability to the borrower, which will be charged to operating costs and thus hurt the financial result. In addition, it will reduce the balance of the loan (the bank's receivables), and the amount written off will also adversely affect the financial result and contribute to the deterioration of the bank's property and financial situation.

Published: May 2024

En México existen 159 especies de agaves, de las cuales 129 son endémicas con hasta 40 formas de uso por 27 grupos étnicos. El uso más importante; excluyendo al del mezcal, es para la alimentación humana. Oaxaca cuenta con la mayor diversidad de agaves del mundo, y preserva en sus diversos grupos étnicos un valioso conocimiento tradicional de agaves. Con el objetivo de conocer su aporte a la alimentación humana, se desarrolló una revisión del conocimiento tradicional de agaves en los grupos étnicos de Oaxaca. Se realizó una búsqueda en base de datos científicas de artículos relacionados con el uso de Agaves en Oaxaca. Se recopiló, sistematizó y analizó la información existente de los agaves útiles en la alimentación. Los resultados muestran evidencia de usos alimenticios de 19 especies de agaves en 9 grupos étnicos del estado, así como en varias localidades mestizas. 14 distritos de Oaxaca están representados en estudios sobre agaves comestibles. Las partes del agave con usos alimenticios son: botones florales, escapo floral en desarrollo, las “piñas” y aguamiel. Estas partes del agave se preparan en guisos (flor), tortillas (escapo), asados (escapo y hojas), en dulce (“mezontle” de la “piña”) y 4 especies para elaborar bebidas tradicionales fermentadas (aguamiel y pulque). Existe en Oaxaca un importante conocimiento tradicional en torno a los agaves comestibles. Estos aportan beneficios alimenticios diversos a las comunidades indígenas y mestizas de Oaxaca, y es vital preservar este conocimiento y continuar desarrollando más trabajos etnobotánicos en torno a los agaves.

El objetivo del trabajo es conocer la importancia sociocultural, biológica y bioquímica del maguey tepeztate (Agave marmorata Roezl.) en el contexto de la comunidad campesina y mezcalera de San Isidro Tapanala, Yautepec, Oaxaca. Para obtener la información se realizaron análisis de laboratorio, recorridos de campo, y se aplicaron seis entrevistas semiestructuradas a personas clave de la localidad. Se concluye que el maguey tepeztate (A. marmorata) es uno de los símbolos bioculturales más representativos de la comunidad mezcalera de San Isidro Tapanala, debido a su enorme plasticidad simbólica que deriva de su soberbia y majestuosa floración y escapo floral (el cual llega a medir más de diez metros), además de su característico color verde oscuro con tonos claros y brillantes que destacan de entre la maleza seca y gris durante la temporada de sequía. Recientes hallazgos de laboratorio señalan la importancia del proceso de fermentación en la producción de mezcal a base de maguey tepeztate, todo lo cual le proporciona un sabor impar y excepcional en el mundo de los mezcales artesanales de Oaxaca. Por lo anterior, el maguey tepeztate juega un papel preponderante en el ciclo biológico, agrícola, mezcalero y socio religioso de la comunidad de San Isidro Tapanala.

Published: May 2024

Los residuos agrícolas han sido considerados un problema medioambiental y su uso no ha sido extensivo, en parte porque aún se desconoce su valor agroindustrial. Por tal motivo el presente estudio tuvo como objetivo formular una Infusión cítrica con flavedo deshidratado de naranja (Citrus sinensis) y hojas de Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana). Se empleó un Diseño Completamente al Azar (DCA) con arreglo bifactorial A*B; donde Factor A= Porcentaje de flavedo y Factor B= Porcentaje de Stevia. Para la comparación de las medias de los tratamientos se utilizó la prueba de rangos múltiples de Tukey (p< 0.05). Los análisis fisicoquímicos presentaron variabilidad al incluir distintas concentraciones de flavedo y Stevia. Además, se demostró que el T5 obtuvo los mejores atributos sensoriales, de igual manera los análisis microbiológicos se encuentran dentro de lo permitido. De manera se concluye que se puede emplear el 95 % de flavedo y 5 % de Stevia en la formulación de una infusión cítrica, contribuyendo a darle valor agregado a este subproducto de la naranja.

Supporting transdisciplinary STEAM practices: Integrating architectural modelling into mathematics education through a cross-cultural dynamic lesson plan (DLP) tool
Authors: El Bedewy Shereen , Lyublinskaya Irina , Lavicza Zsolt
Published: May 2024

This paper proposes a cross-cultural dynamic lesson plan (DLP) tool that could be adopted by teachers across different cultures to implement STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics) education practices. An abundance of well-developed lesson plans is available to teachers on numerous Internet sites, but the cultural diversity of such lesson plans – i.e., difficulty to customize for alignment with local curriculum and lesson plan requirements, make it difficult for teachers to utilize and share these resources – due to the lack of flexible customizations for orientation with local curriculum and lesson plan requirements. This study suggests an approach to overcome such challenges by presenting the DLP tool to assist teachers’ STEAM teaching practices using GeoGebra for learning content elaboration. Our proposed transdisciplinary STEAM practice uses architecture as a real-life example that connects mathematics learning to culture and history through mathematical modelling. This study follows a design-based research approach to develop and implement DLP tool and its related design heuristic. Moreover, the study is examining how the DLP tool can be utilized with teachers cross-culturally and how it could support teachers in professional development workshops to design transdisciplinary STEAM lesson plans. The qualitative analysis of teachers’ artefacts developed during these workshops demonstrated the versatility of DLP tool to address cultural diversity in lesson planning through these STEAM practices applications. The emerging themes from this study show that regardless of participants’ cultures, using the DLP tool to implement transdisciplinary STEAM practices could support teachers in developing operational and shareable lesson plans.
Taxonomic analysis of the genital plates and associated structures in Ophiuroidea (Echinodermata)
Authors: Stöhr Sabine
Published: May 2024

Recently, new insights have been gained from the ophiuroid skeleton that were instrumental in the inference of a new phylogeny. The so far least studied ossicles are the adradial and abradial genital plates and the radial shields, which articulate with each other and support the genital slit and disc. In addition, the inner sides of the oral shields and madreporites have never been examined in detail. The present study utilized SEM, micro-CT and digital photography to document and examine these structures in 57 species from 28 of the currently accepted 34 families of Ophiuroidea. Early ontogeny and fossils were also considered. Previously, mainly the articular structures had been analysed, but the overall shape of the genital plates was here found to hold important phylogenetic signals. A long-neglected ossicle was re-discovered and studied in detail for the first time, here named the oral genital plate. It was recognized in all Ophintegrida, but was found to be absent in all Euryophiurida. The oral genital plate articulates with the oral shield and supports the proximal part of the genital slit wall. Abradial and oral genital plates were found to be absent in species that lack genital slits, but the adradial genital plate was always present. Numerous new morphological characters with potential phylogenetic signals were identified, described and figured in detail. A pre-existing character matrix was extended and revised with these new data, as well as with recently revised data on oral papillae, and a Bayesian phylogenetic analysis was performed. This phylogeny largely agrees with the current molecular hypothesis, but some branches were not supported.
THE REQUIREMENT FOR PERFORMANCE-BASED SEISMIC DESIGN AND THE USAGE OF DISTINCT MODELS IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THIS.
Authors: Anand Pradyut
Published: May 2024

The performance-based design process (PBSD) begins with the identification of one or more performance objectives. A performance-based seismic design accurately predicts how the structure will perform under the assumed earthquake hazard. Recognizing and evaluating the structure's performance capacity is critical during the design process of performance-based design. This article examines performance-based seismic design concepts and nonlinear analysis of structural models. PBSD is a repeated process that begins with the selection of seismic performance objectives. Subsequently, a variety of pushover analysis (POA) approaches are covered, and the merits and drawbacks of each are highlighted
BIO-MEDIATED SOIL STABILIZATION TECHNIQUES (BIO-POLYMERS AND MICP)
Authors: K. N Anoop , Kathirvel Parthiban , G. S Aparna , N Vinod Kumar.
Published: May 2024

Soil stabilization through biologically and eco-friendly ways are not so long-standing attempts because of the extensive research done in the geotechnical engineering field. Among them, are the use of environmentally friendly materials like biopolymers, and other methods namely, microbial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP). Biomineralization mediated by MICP is a phenomenon whereby certain microorganisms produce enzymes that can precipitate calcium carbonate crystals. Most importantly, carbonic anhydrase and urease producers are widely used for MICP in various fields. The mineralization properties of these enzymes are drastically exploited for various purposes including the formulation of self-healing bio-concretes, retention of monuments, sealing of cracks in roads and buildings, etc. Biomineralization through MICP processes can in a way contribute to the carbon sequestration through the active formation of calcites when these enzymes react with atmospheric carbon dioxide. The increased rise of environmental issues upon the use of chemical stabilizing agents made people think of a more sustainable solution through the application of biopolymers, such as guar gum, xanthan gum, alginate, beta 1,3/1,6 glucan and chitosan. In conclusion, both the mentioned alternatives are considered ecofriendly and are helpful in reducing carbon dioxide emissions

People's needs are growing more and more in demand today, which is why industries are so important. However, to keep up with the rising demands, businesses need a lot of energy.Which can be fulfilled by setting up a power plant but more the power plants, more the use of cooling towers, which can affect, the effectiveness and the efficiency of the power plant?As well as the environment as more the power plants more the carbon footprint which means more effect on ozone layer So, to enhance such influencing factors and to tackle the question of how to save the environment. We came up with an innovation: we are applying heat pipe in the system or cycle of a power plant. We use heat pipes between the condenser and the cooling tower to see the factors affected by innovation. The effectiveness of the cooling tower and the entire power plant can be greatly improved by the use of a heat pipe, a device that operates on the principle of thermal conductivity and exhibits a capillary action to allow hot water coming from the condenser to automatically cool down without the aid of any external source before entering the cooling tower. A fantastic gadget where the phase transition takes place is the heat pipe. Water is the working fluid most frequently utilised in heat pipes. Water absorbs heat from the source at the hot end, changes phases to become vapour, and then travels via capillary action to the cold end. The cycle then continues as the fog at the stern end rejects heat from the atmosphere and transforms back into liquid water. This liquid water then travels back to he hot end to absorb additional heat from the heated source. The heat pipe's material is often determined by the fluid, heated basis, and other factors. Typically, copper-nickel alloys are utilised as alloy materials

Arsenic is found to be one of the most hazardous element in the chemical world and its presence in drinking water is a matter of great concern. There are several reports on contamination of water by arsenic (As) in groundwater as well as in drinking water in different rural and suburban areas where expensive water treatment techniques are not affordable. Arsenic exists in organic as well as inorganic forms in aqueous system with varying valence states which is mainly responsible for its variable behaviour and toxicity. Chronic arsenic exposure has devastating health effects such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer and the eventual death. Thus, the removal of arsenic from drinking water is strongly recommended. Many methods of arsenic removal have been studied, but every available process has its own limitations and it can serve to a limited extent only. This chapter summarizes the effects caused by arsenic contamination and the methodologies currently being adopted for its removal from drinking water
