Canções de amor e sofrimento: o amor romântico como crença na construção do mercado do sertanejo universitário
Authors: Porcionato Gabriela , Vasques Lucas , Souza Thaís
Published: June 2023

Considerando a centralidade da experiência amorosa na vivência do indivíduo moderno (Martuccelli, 2016), buscamos identificar as crenças sobre o amor no contexto da música sertaneja universitária, vertente que  agrega grandes cifras no mercado fonográfico brasileiro. A partir da sociologia econômica e da vertente que tem reivindicado a centralidade das emoções para explicar o funcionamento de um mercado, buscamos cruzar a economia e a emoção, especialmente a do amor. A partir da seleção de 20 músicas do gênero, realizamos uma lexicografia das letras de músicas e demonstramos o “amor” como categoria central a ser produzida e consumida nesse mercado. Conclui-se que a crença do amor gere o mercado do sertanejo universitário. A análise em três eixos temáticos (conquista, traição e término) nos levaram a crenças duais em relação ao amor, sobretudo o eixo da traição, nos forneceu crenças divididas entre sagradas e profanas – na qual, pelo antagonismo expresso nas crenças, tratam-se de experiências inconciliáveis.

A partir da aproximação com um campo de pesquisas ainda inicial, discute-se neste artigo a menstruação como um tema tecnopolítico, considerando a formação de grupos de ativismo menstrual em países sul-americanos e o crescente extrativismo de dados biológicos e fisiológicos que ocorre por meio de aplicativos móveis para o monitoramento do ciclo menstrual. O menstruapp Flo, serve como campo experimental para essa discussão na qual o “empoderamento” aparece como uma espécie de termo flutuante que vai do mercado ao ativismo e encontra seu limite na proposta individualizante e neoliberal. Frente a capturas de mercado e a sedução das tecnologias digitais é possível produzir no Sul Global tecnopolíticas de resistência a um mercado global de extração de dados íntimos? A resposta aportada neste artigo é otimista e toma como exemplo empírico o projeto colombiano da Escuela de Educación Menstrual Emacipadas como espaço de resistências do Sul Global frente às tecnologias colonizadoras do Norte.
mercado dos psicofármacos e a gestão das emoções em tempos pós pandémicos
Authors: Caponi Sandra
Published: June 2023

Analisam-se as dificuldades existentes no campo da saúde mental de meninos e adolescentes em tempos pós-pandêmicos. Consideramos que é preciso estar atentos à banalização de diagnósticos psiquiátricos ambíguos, às internações evitáveis ou desnecessárias, assim como à prescrição maciça de terapêuticas psicofarmacológicas com efeitos colaterais graves. Sabemos que esse tipo de situações ocorrerá se permitirmos que os sofrimentos provocados pela pandemia sejam traduzidos como sintomas de algum transtorno psiquiátrico definido no DSM e não como o resultado das muitas dificuldades vividas em tempos de pandemia.
Proteção de dados e instituições de ensino: o que fazer com dados de alunos?
Authors: Gomes Fabricio Vasconcelos , Cunha Filho Marcelo De Castro , Luccas Victor Nóbrega
Published: June 2023

O presente artigo objetiva compreender como as instituições de ensino superior (IES) no Brasil podem adequar rotinas e procedimentos internos de tratamento de dados de alunos à Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD). Parte-se do pressuposto de que a adequação de rotinas e de procedimentos de uma instituição a uma nova lei não é tarefa que demanda esforço de subsunção lógica apenas; na realidade, exige esforço criativo e negociado de adaptação. A partir do caso paradigmático da experiência de adequação da Fundação Getulio Vargas, este trabalho chegou à conclusão de que o tratamento de dados de alunos de uma IES pode se adequar à LGPD por meio da divisão didática de categorias de titulares, que variam conforme o tipo de relacionamento que o aluno tem com a instituição, e também da aplicação de regimes correspondentes de proteção de dados.
A função garantista processual dos princípios restaurativos
Authors: Pacheco Rubens Lira Barros , Santana Selma Pereira de
Published: June 2023

O objetivo deste artigo é investigar a relação entre as garantias processuais penais e os princípios restaurativos no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro. Questiona-se se a Justiça Restaurativa, a fim de propor um modelo de justiça não-punitivo, poderia fazer retroceder as conquistas do garantismo penal. A pesquisa se justifica considerando que a Justiça Restaurativa, de inspiração abolicionista, apresenta notas claras de oposição aos fundamentos do sistema penal. No entanto, longe de suplantá-lo, as práticas restaurativas brasileiras procuram articular-se com ele, comunicando-se justamente através de institutos processuais penais. Considerando que as garantias processuais penais também são fundamentos desse modelo punitivo, investiga-se se haveria um risco dessa relação ambígua produzir, em alguma medida, também uma negação dessas garantias. A pesquisa é original e seu valor deriva do fato de que, caso comprovada uma oposição insuperável entre os modelos, a viabilidade dos programas restaurativos poderia ser questionada. Os métodos adotados são os da pesquisa teórica e da interpretação teleológica. A técnica aplicada é a da pesquisa bibliográfica. Como resultado, percebeu-se no plano teleológico entre os axiomas garantistas processuais e os princípios restaurativos, a existência de um espaço de harmonização, tanto no que tange à natureza das funções que exercem no interior de seus modelos, quanto na função política comum que se assinala entre eles. Conclui-se que o princípio restaurativo da confidencialidade, em especial, exerce sob determinadas circunstâncias, uma função de verdadeira garantia processual penal. O artigo se destina especialmente aos acadêmicos e profissionais que lidam com o tema da institucionalização da Justiça Restaurativa no Brasil.
A política (pública) criminal como instrumento de fomento de uma relação de interdisciplinaridade construtiva entre direito penal e criminologias
Authors: Ramos Marcelo Buttelli
Published: June 2023

O conceito de política criminal representa uma ideia cujo uso é tão recorrente quanto impreciso. Nesse contexto, o presente artigo objetiva compreender as potencialidades e limites desse conceito para servir como espaço de reflexão e articulação de achados empíricos e desenvolvimentos teóricos. Analisa-se, num primeiro momento, por meio do resgate de conhecidas referências teóricas, o processo de autonomização do saber político-criminal em relação à ciência do direito penal. Na sequência, avança-se na análise proposta por meio do estabelecimento de diferenciações entre as noções de política criminal, política penal e política social, explicitando-se, destarte, a transcendência do primeiro conceito em relação aos outros dois. Pontua-se, ademais, a necessidade de superação do que se poderia chamar de uma relação de interdisciplinaridade expropriatória entre as disciplinas que integram as ciências criminais. São oferecidas, ainda, razões para a defesa de uma relação horizontal de interdisciplinaridade construtiva entre aquelas mesmas disciplinas. Outra hipótese analisada diz respeito à explicitação do caráter contraprodutivo de uma política criminal dogmatizada. Conclui-se o artigo com a apresentação do conceito de política pública criminal, peça-chave para o desenvolvimento de um modelo dinâmico de ciência criminal, por meio do qual política criminal, criminologias e ciência penal passam a se relacionar harmonicamente como partes indissociáveis de um processo cíclico de produção, revisão e atualização do ordenamento jurídico-penal.
PSEUDO RANDOM KEY GENERATOR USING FRACTAL BASED TRELLIS CODED GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR IMAGE ENCRYPTION
Authors: T Anusha , R Venkatesan
Published: June 2023

Cryptographic applications such as online banking, and securing medical and military data require the usage of random keys, which should remain unpredictable by adversaries. This paper focuses on the strengths and limitations of the techniques and algorithms that are used in the generation of random keys and a new method to generate random keys is proposed using fractals. Fractals are generated using the Sierpinski triangle and fed as input for Non-Deterministic Finite Automata (NDFA) to generate an Initial Vector (IV). Trellis Coded Genetic Algorithm (TCGA) code generator generates seed value using IV as input. Pseudo-Random Key Generator (PRKG) generates a Session Key matrix (SKM) using a seed value. Images are encrypted using SKM to generate cipher images. The randomness of the TCGA code is tested using entropy measure and efficiency based on NIST Tests. SKM with high entropy value is used for image encryption. The Number of Pixel Change Rate (NPCR) and Unified Average Changing Intensity (UACI) values are used for calculating the randomness of cipher images.

ADVANCEMENTS IN CROWD-MONITORING SYSTEM: A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF SYSTEMATIC APPROACHES AND AUTOMATION ALGORITHMS: STATE-OF-THE-ART
Authors: Ameen Mohammed , Stone Richard
Published: June 2023

Growing apprehensions surrounding public safety have captured the attention of numerous governments and security agencies across the globe. These entities are increasingly acknowledging the imperative need for reliable and secure crowd-monitoring systems to address these concerns. Effectively managing human gatherings necessitates proactive measures to prevent unforeseen events or complications, ensuring a safe and well-coordinated environment. The scarcity of research focusing on crowd monitoring systems and their security implications has given rise to a burgeoning area of investigation, exploring potential approaches to safeguard human congregations effectively. Crowd monitoring systems depend on a bifurcated approach, encompassing vision-based and non-vision-based technologies. An in-depth analysis of these two methodologies will be conducted in this research. The efficacy of these approaches is contingent upon the specific environment and temporal context in which they are deployed, as they each offer distinct advantages. This paper endeavors to present an in-depth analysis of the recent incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms and models into automated systems, emphasizing their contemporary applications and effectiveness in various contexts.

Authors: Rozi Oki Rachmalia , Soeprobowati Tri Retnaningsih , Hariyati Riche
Published: June 2023

Diatoms belong to the division of Bacillariophyta; their cell walls composition of silica (SiO2) was the primary characteristic of their structure. Diatoms are good for water quality assessment and paleolimnological analysis. The determination number of frustule which has to be counted for diatom is one of the critical steps in process identification. Several studies usually use a range starting from 100-600 frustules, which refers to the "fixed count" method, that is time-consuming. Research about the minimum frustules number that is acceptable for water character in Indonesia has been limited studied. This research aim is to determine the minimum number of frustules need to identify the diatom assemblage, especially at Telaga Cebong, Dieng, Central Java, Indonesia. The sediment samples were taken vertically with D’Section corer until a depth of 200 cm sediment samples then  sliced every 10 cm. The labwork activites consisted of  digestion, preparation, enumeration, and identification of diatom species with the numberof frustules of 100,200, 300, 400, 500, and 600. The diatom data are analyzed with the formula for the maximum efficiency value. Based on 19 sediment samples from different sediment layers, the maximum efficiency value obtained was above the range of 0.85 to 0.92. The number of identified species remained stable after a minimum of 300 frustules. Therefore, at least 300 frustules are needed for identification of diatom for paleoreconstructions at Cebong Lake.

Polarización política en las tapas de Clarín durante los gobiernos peronistas (1946-1955)
Authors: Durr Missau Lucas
Published: June 2023

Este artículo analiza la polarización política en Argentina durante los gobiernos peronistas entre 1946 y 1955. Identificamos los temas que dividieron la opinión pública a partir de referencias documentales y bibliográficas que tratan de las políticas de gobierno y la relación del gobierno con los medios de comunicación. Para ilustrar los temas polarizadores, compilamos tapas del diario Clarín del mismo período. Metodológicamente, para la reconstrucción del contexto político y mediático, trabajamos con la propuesta de “negociación de las escenas mediáticas” (Schuliaquer, 2017, 2020). Para identificar los temas que dividieron la opinión pública, usamos el concepto de “tópicos disparadores” (Baldassarri, Bearman, & Baldassarri, 2016). Las dicotomías que operaron para la polarización política en este momento en Argentina eran agricultura/industria, elite/clase trabajadora y popular, iglesia/estado, capital nacional/capital extranjero y libertad/autoridad estatal.
Análisis de las identidades narrativo-discursivas de Carnavalé y Más Carnaval
Authors: Miranda Turnes Chiara
Published: June 2023

Este artículo propone un acercamiento a Carnavalé y Más Carnaval, dos experiencias del carnaval alternativo uruguayo de reciente surgimiento fuertemente vinculadas entre sí. Se trata de dos proyectos culturales que se presentan como alternativas al circuito organizado alrededor del concurso oficial de carnaval por parte de instituciones estatales y privadas. Ambas experiencias presentan puntos de encuentro y fuertes tensiones en su —aún reciente— desarrollo, que habilitan una reflexión en clave de contraste. El análisis de ambas experiencias se centra en sus identidades narrativo/discursivas, desde un abordaje teórico que articula las ideas de Hall (2003), Arfuch (2005), y Casullo (2022). La aproximación a estas identidades narrativo/discursivas se realiza a través del análisis de sus estrategias de comunicación, específicamente, de las piezas desde las cuales ambos proyectos se presentan en sus redes sociales. Para esto se incorporan las dimensiones de los procesos de comunicación propuestas por Restrepo (1995) y la idea de públicos de las organizaciones planteada por Amado Suárez y Castro Zuñeda (1990).

El objetivo principal de la investigación es comprender el estado actual de las agencias de comunicación estratégica en Costa Rica para permanecer competitivas en el mercado global de la comunicación.Se aplicaron técnicas cualitativas y cuantitativas para lograr obtener la información, los resultados sugieren que, si bien se comprende la importancia de implementar las herramientas y estrategias digitales necesarias, muchas agencias no creen que la transformación digital ofrezca beneficios sustanciales a sus organizaciones. En general, el estudio demuestra la importancia de la transformación digital para las agencias de comunicación estratégica en Costa Rica, y la necesidad de comprender los desafíos y oportunidades asociados con esta transformación para mantenerse competitivos en el mercado global de la comunicación.
Victims as perpetrators of gender-based violence in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe
Authors:   , Matumbu Nozipho
Published: June 2023

This study sought to address the research question: How victims of violence become perpetrators of the same violence they suffered in Bulawayo? With the advent of the Covid-19 virus, gender-based violence cases drastically increased during the lockdowns making it a pandemic within the pandemic (John et al 2020:65). Studies on gender-based violence have largely focused on violence against women and the prevalence of this kind of abuse; few studies have focused on men as victims of this violence. This study focused on men in Bulawayo who have suffered, witnessed or perpetrated domestic violence and sought an understanding of the causes of violence by women as well as the types of violence they commit. Through an examination of existing literature and the conducting of participatory action research (PAR) with participants from Bulawayo, this study also investigated methods for addressing genderbased violence with a view of breaking cycles of violence and reducing the occurrence of such violence. Over the years, great strides and efforts have been made to correct the inequalities caused by patriarchal societal structures. However, the empowerment and emancipation of women and the provision of positive discrimination opportunities which were originally designed to reduce the gaps between the two genders appear to have created further imbalances as women now have become over-protected and are taking advantage of this situation. The study has led whether or not women are as much victim of gender-based violence as they are “perceived victims” given the fact that men are suffering in silence at their hands. After selection the methods through interviews, discussions and a review of literature, an action plan for creating a safe space for dialogue was hatched. The team had already laid the initial groundwork on the intervention which was broader than gender-based violence against men and aimed to deal with numerous issues affecting men. The team required assistance in the formalisation the organisation and that was how they met the writer and discussed on which methods to utilise for a concerted peacebuilding project. They used their expertise and competencies to undertake a project through podcasts and broadcasts which is still on going. The project was well received and through its service to the community, difficult conversations have been held which was not obtaining before and this is one of its meaningful contributions to the Bulawayo community
An assessment of the tourism curriculum and its impact on the WIL experience
Authors:   , Coopasami Mealine
Published: June 2023

The rapid growth of tourism in South Africa has seen tourism businesses flourish in recent years which has led to many higher educational institutions (HEIs) offering tourism qualifications to curb the growing demand for professionally educated and trained staff. The South African government has placed much emphasis on the development of tourism skills and the quality of education that students receive. Based on these crucial factors the preparedness of graduates must be addressed. One of the fundamental approaches that HEIs have implemented is the incorporation of Work Integrated Learning programmes into tourismrelated qualifications. However, literature reveals that there still remains a gap between the theoretical knowledge dispensed to students by HEIs and their ability to apply industry-specific skills during their engagement with the tourism sector. The aim of this research was to assess the tourism management curriculum at the Durban University of Technology (DUT) and its effect on the students Work Integrated Learning (WIL) experience. WIL plays an integral role in the tourism management qualification offered at DUT and it is necessary to assess whether the WIL component adequately aligns with the learning objectives of the tourism programme. The population comprised of graduates who were registered for the National Diploma in Tourism Management and who participated in WIL between the years 2015 to 2019. A quantitative approach was employed in this research by means of a structured online questionnaire to collect primary data. A non-probability sampling method was used to obtain a representative sample of 106 tourism management graduates. An analysis of the empirical data obtained from the questionnaires was conducted using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), Version 26.0 software, and Excel. The key findings revealed that the tourism management curriculum offered at DUT effectively addressed various areas that pertained to the tourism industry. Furthermore, the study found the curriculum content prepared graduates with the knowledge and expertise required to fully understand the concepts and the realities of a career within the South African tourism market. Graduates indicated that the lack of technological training in tourism systems was cause for concern as these systems are crucial for the day-to-day operations of tourism businesses, the host organizations capacity to train graduates must be an area of focus as graduates use these experiential learning as a stepping stone to begin their careers in the tourism sector and finally, during WIL the assessment activities used should align with the learning objectives outlined in the curriculum. The current research made recommendations aimed at addressing the preparation phase of the tourism graduates in order to address the lack of employability skills.
False positive cases in automated blood culture systems due to hyperleukocytosis
Authors: Kim Do-Hoon , Ryoo Namhee
Published: June 2023

Automated blood culture systems are widely used in clinical microbiology laboratories to minimize the workload of laboratory personnel and permit fast turnaround times. However, sometimes false positive signals occur due to leukocytosis, presence of fastidious bacteria, or unexplained causes. We experienced false positive signal in a patient with hyperleukocytosis for the first time since the automated blood culture system was introduced in our hospital over 20 years ago. We present two case reports with literature review and describe the procedure for dealing with false-positive cases in our hospital.

Introduction. With the development of the chemical industry, the search for and synthesis of new, and modification of the existing nanocatalytic systems are of great importance. In view of this, the preparation of new catalysts by immobilization of transition metal metals in a polymer matrix becomes an important direction in chemical synthesis. Purpose of this work is to submit experimental data on the synthesis and study of the catalytic properties of silver and nickel nanostructures, immobilized in polymer matrices, based on a binary system of unsaturated polyester – polyethylene glycol maleate – with acrylic acid. Nanocomposites have been obtained by reducing a solution of nickel and silver metal salts with sodium hypophosphite in the presence of an ammonia solution of silver chloride. Methodology. By the methods of spectroscopy, microscopy the sizes, structure and morphology of polymer-stabilized nanoparticles are determined. Results. The obtained nanocomposites contain isolated Ag0 nanoparticles with a diameter of 60±10 nm, predominantly spherical in shape and metallic Ni0 with a cubic shape of 70±10 nm, uniformly distributed in the polymer matrix, as well as agglomerates on the surface of the polymer matrix, the dimensions of which vary within 150–200 nm. The catalytic activity of the synthesized nanocomposites, which show high efficiency in comparison with the standard metal catalysts, has been also studied.
Implementation of currency interventions of the Central Bank of Armenia with financial
derivatives
Authors: Aslanyan Mkhitar
Published: June 2023

Purpose: The main goal of the paper is to develop financial derivatives of the Republic of Armenia (RA) as hedging tools for foreign exchange risk management for financial organizations and other entities. The secondary goal is to substantiate the efficiency and expediency of the use of financial derivatives as alternative tools for the implementation of foreign exchange interventions of the Central Bank of Armenia (CBA). Methodology: In order to evaluate the currency interventions carried out by the Central Bank of Armenia (CBA), the interventions and their impact were studied by applying causal-comparative analysis and synthesis methods based on the CBA and International Monetary Fund (IMF) data. The most efficient intervention tools were revealed as a result of such analysis. The forward prices were calculated based on the swap intervention data and using the principle of impossibility of arbitration. Results: The present study substantiated that the application of a forward contract for difference can ensure the same goals like those pursued by foreign exchange interventions with no impact on foreign reserves and no need for sterilization. Conclusion: It was proposed to divide the swap agreements used by the CBA into spot and forward, which will ensure the realization of the same goals along with engaging a large number of non-financial companies. At the same time, the application of a forward contract for difference during the implementation of foreign exchange interventions will lead to the development of the financial derivatives market and ensure the matching of foreign exchange cash flows received by businesses in different periods.
What are the factors that determine risk-adjusted returns of Croatian life insurers?
Authors: Pavić Kramarić Tomislava , Miletić Marko
Published: June 2023

Purpose: When conducting their business, insurers face various risks that are controlled for in order to mitigate them and protect the insured, inter alia. Moreover, being aware of the factors that determine the reward-to-risk ratio for insurers is also of crucial importance. Thus, the aim of this research is to identify potential factors that influence risk-adjusted returns of life insurance companies. Methodology: The analysis is conducted on a sample of life insurers that operated in Croatia in the period from 2016 to 2020. For this purpose, risk-adjusted ROA, i.e. the Sharpe ratio, is used as a risk-adjusted return measure, while independent variables encompass several insurance firm-oriented and insurance industry-specific variables, as well as variables depicting the level of macroeconomic development, stock market, bond market and institutional development. Results: After conducting dynamic panel analysis, the obtained results suggest that the premium growth rate, asset-based size, the net premium to surplus ratio, i.e. leverage, as well as bond market development are significant factors when determining risk-adjusted returns. Conclusion: Risk-adjusted returns are determined by insurance firm-oriented factors which are important not only to investors but also to insurance market regulators and insurance firm managers.
Introduction: Political Logics and Academic Rationalities of Securitisation and International Crises
Authors: Makarychev Andrey , Diez Thomas
Published: June 2023

This introductory note discusses how the concept of securitisation might be used as a tool for understanding the different logics driving and standing behind foreign policies of major international stakeholders in situations of crises, emergencies and exceptions. The editors look at how securitisation functions as a discursive instrument for reshaping actors’ subjectivities, and how it might be adjusted to the rapid changes in global politics triggered by Russia’s war against Ukraine. They argue that the discursive construction of insecurities is not politically neutral and is driven by certain logics, presumptions and imaginaries. Russia’s war against Ukraine is a particularly important focal point in this regard since it elucidates another crucial question: how do the parties involved in the war securitise and de-securitise – as well as exceptionalise and normalise – specific risks, dangers and threats, and what are the implications of these discursive strategies for international security?
Small Powers, Geopolitical Crisis and Hypersecuritisation: Latvia and the Effects of Russia’s Second War in Ukraine
Authors: Andžāns Māris
Published: June 2023

This article presents a case where securitisation of one state in another increased dramatically and exponentially. The scale and intensity of securitisation were unprecedented, as were the range of securitisation actors, and the tone of language of speech acts and nonverbal securitisation acts. This case in question is the securitisation of Russia in Latvia over Russia’s war in Ukraine starting in 2022. Although Russia was securitised by its smaller neighbour before the war, the sudden explosion of securitisation in 2022 differs from any securitisation in recent decades there. Securitisation of Russia is evaluated within the margins of the hypersecuritisation subconcept that purports securitisation beyond the ‘normal’ level, characterised by exaggeration of threats and excessive countermeasures. This article offers a reformulation of the subconcept, omitting the negative connotation built into the initial definition, as well as addresses the transition from securitisation to hypersecuritisation.
