Organization as an Object of Change
Authors: Shironina E. M.
Published: August 2020

There is an understanding in the scientific community and business circles that the pace of change has never been as high as it is now, and organizational changes affect all organizations in all sectors of the economy. Change management involves creating appropriate representations of the organization as an object of change – hence the relevance of examining the conceptual models of organization.

Aim. The presented study aims to examine the development and evolution of the conceptual models of organization in management theory and practice, with the definition of the type of organizational culture serving as a reflection of the dominant worldview that defines organizational management.

Tasks. The authors systematize the conceptual models of organization, identify features and trends in the development of the conceptual models of organization, propose an information processing model for the formation of organizational management that would substantiate the diversity of the conceptual models of organization.

Methods. This study uses general scientific methods of cognition and analysis of scientific works of foreign and Russian authors on management.

Results. The conceptual models of organization are examined, and the type of organizational culture characteristic of each model is identified. An information processing model for the formation of organizational management is proposed, substantiating the genesis of the diversity of the conceptual models of organization. The study shows that there is no single universal model of organization.

Conclusions. The concepts of “human-oriented” organizations are developing within the framework of the “entity – management entity” paradigm. The essence of “human-oriented” organizations is reflected in the following conceptual models: the learning organization (P. Senge, M. Pedler, J. Burgoyne, T. Boydell), the requisite organization (E. Jaques), the horizontal organization (F. Ostroff), the biological organization (F. Gouillart, J. Kelly), the yellow organization (C. Graves, D. Beck, C. Cowan), the green organization (C. Graves, D. Beck, C. Cowan, F. Laloux), the teal organization (C. Graves, D. Beck, C. Cowan, F. Laloux). Each organization creates its own organizational model and the corresponding organizational type of management of joint activities based on its history, cultural environment, and worldview of the organization’s members. The developed conceptual models of organization emphasize the transformative role of the organization’s members and the influence of transformative rather than reproductive processes.
MARKETS OF GEORGIAN AGRO-FOOD PRODUCTS AND EXPORT STIMULATING ECONOMIC POLICY
Authors: Kharaishvili Eteri , Natsvlishvili Ia
Published: August 2020

The article substantiates the importance of the development of food markets in the solution of food security problem. It is argued that the tendency of demand for food has an increasing trend and the development of food markets still remains one of the most important challenges of contemporary world.
The study analyzes the markets of Georgian agro- food products and studies the modern challenges in these markets. Comparative analysis of Georgian and Spanish food markets is conducted.
The article estimates the positive and negative trends of export of Georgian agro-food products as well as the possibilities of diversification of products in the food markets.
According to “The Impact-Immediacy” matrix the hindering factors of Georgian agro products export are identified. Using the «Priority Scheme» the priorities of economic policy stimulating the export of agro-food products are revealed.
In terms of geographical orientation of the export the possibilities of diversification of food markets are discussed, especially in European markets. The conclusion is made that, in general, European food market is characterized by the growing tendency. However, in these markets there is no similar tendency for Georgian agro-food products.
According to the study of the share of Georgian products and export growth rates in different countries the positive correlation between these variables is determined. But this circumstance is not considered to be sufficient for the positive impact on the economic growth.
The conclusion is made that using effective mechanisms of export stimulation allows the diversification of export of Georgian agro products on the traditional but growing food markets on the one hand and on the other hand the expansion of geographical area of export markets.
CEREALS AS GUARANTOR OF FOOD SOVEREIGNTY
Authors: Koguashvili Paata , Chikhladze Nikoloz
Published: August 2020

Georgia has long been considered one of the exemplary wheat producing and consuming countries. In the article, the authors claim that the production of cereals as a strategic food must be a priority, and that the structural transformation of arable lands will allow for producing 1.0-1.1 million tons of cereals in the medium term, which is sufficient for the country’s food security. As to wheat, we can produce it within 60-65% of our demand, of which, price of one ton will be by$ 25-30 as compared who imported wheat. To that end, we have to change agricultural policy and bring it in line with the existing global challenges.
In the last two decades, there has been a trend towards the decline in world cereal output and the continuing rise in their prices. The latter is also due to the fact that population growth has far outpaced the percapita growth of cereal production.
In the last four decades, the global price of 1 ton of wheat has increased from $ 80.4 to $ 173.4. The era of cheap food in the world has come to an end.
Economic calculations indicate that by 2025, the optimal area for wheat will be considered: 114.0 thousand ha, for crops - 421.8 thousand tons, for a grain-storing - 120.0 thousand ha, and for a fodder - 50.0 thousand ha, for maize - 170,0 thousand ha and 714,0 thousand tons, for barley - 50,0 thousand ha and 160,0 thousand tons, for oats - 20,0 thousand ha and 50,0 thousand tons. In case of land consolidation, the wheat cultivation area may be increased to 150.0 thousand hectares.
In order to avoid the long-standing problem, it is necessary to apply all the reserves for increasing domestic cereal production, for which, first of all, Georgia should adopta financially, technically, technologically and institutionally strong State program supporting grain producers, which will also involve institutional measures to produce elite seeds.
THEORETICAL BASICS AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS OF BEHAVIORAL ECONOMICS
Authors: Natsvaladze Marine
Published: August 2020

Traditional Economics looks at the persons as at some kind of rational machine which takes into consideration all available information and then makes optimal decision. Re- ality is rather different. The behavioral economics claims that there is no rational «economic human” and probably will nev- er exist. Person’s behavior is irrational and this irrationality is not random and clueless. Vice-versa - this irrationality is systemic and predictable.
Behavioral economics explores what affects people›s economic decisions and the consequences of those decisions for market prices, returns, and resource allocation. Tradition- al economic research assumes that people›s economic deci- sions are based on the rule of maximizing utility.
Behavioral economics uses experiments that observe human behavior in order to uncover how we think. Behavior- al economics has been called the science of decision-making. It is a growing academic discipline which uses experiments that observe human behavior in order to uncover how we think. Behavioral economics is about understanding com- mon decision mistakes that people make and why they make them. In particular, a large aspect of behavioral economics is concerned with the gap between intention and action.
Classical economic theory assumes that individuals are rational. However, in the real world, we often see irrational behavior – decisions which don›t maximize utility but can cause a loss of economic welfare. It means economists need to take into account the potential for irrationality.
Successful marketers must have a profound understand- ing of the consumer’s thought process in order to create a suc- cessful marketing campaign. By understanding the consumer’s decision-making process, marketers are able to develop value propositions that really fit the consumer’s needs. The impor- tance of understanding behavioral economics for marketers is immeasurable as it allows for a better understanding of the human mind. Behavioral economics allows marketing profes- sionals to optimize marketing strategies and get real results.
In the article are reviewed applied aspects of behavioral economics, also theoretical and practical results of researches. These results will be useful in company management, for pol- iticians, in private decision making as they give different per- spective to rational-functional models. In case of ignoring the interdisciplinary approaches, integration of economics and psy- chology can result in waste of resources and wrong decisions.
ADMINISTRATIVE DIVISION, REGIONS OF GEORGIA AND THEIR CHARACTERISTICS
Authors: Jibuti Mariam
Published: August 2020

Georgia has a one-level system of governance. Regional level of governance is not defined by law. However, historical areas/regions are objects for policy planning (Jibuti, 2018:526-529). Effectiveness of country’s regional division had not been assessed or studied in terms of economic development planning purpose. Our research aimed to define criteria for such assessment and make an evaluation. These criteria were formed based on study of different scientific approaches, theories and models. Criteria which were used to assess effectiveness of regional division in Georgia are following: (1) Regions have central places, “core/leading centers”; (2) Each region has settlements with high demand and settlements with relatively low demand; (3) Human, capital and product flows are more intensive within the region rather than with other regions; (4) Influence of internal or external factors are similar within the territory of a region; (5) Intensity of commuting is high within a region; (6) Regions are administrative units; (7) Natural resources, ecosystem or other geographical characteristics are similar within a region; (8) Economic conditions are somewhat similar within a region; (9) It is possible to manage or govern a region (Kharaishvili, 2003: 88).
In order to make an assessment based on the above- mentioned criteria we studied development strategies of all regions (that are under control of Georgian government, excluding the capital) in Georgia for 2014-2021, and analyzed regional statistics. Study results show that 5 criteria out of 9 are not true for Georgian regions. Effectiveness of the regional policy will increase if the Georgian government establishes functional regions, taking into account basic needs of people inhabited in the specific areas (Bedianashvili, 2013: 38).

Aproximación conceptual de la segregación socio espacial y residencial en ciudades intermedias en América Latina
Authors: Farfán Tocarruncho Wilmer Yesid
Published: August 2020

El objetivo de este artículo es precisar que la segregación socio-espacial y residencial en las ciudades intermedias contemporáneas en América Latina se diferencia en la conceptualización y aplicabilidad en el espacio. Para ello, se realizó una revisión documental que incluyó artículos, tesis e informes de instituciones afines a la temática publicados entre 1900 y 2018 que definían o utilizaban como categorías de análisis la segregación socio-espacial y residencial. Se encontró, en primer lugar, que los procesos de segregación socio-espacial y residencial están articulados con el sistema económico, la globalización y las prácticas neoliberales que existen en el territorio y el espacio; en segundo lugar, la población se ubica/aglomera según sus condiciones socioeconómicas permitiendo que las personas se asienten en determinados lugares, caracterizados como homogéneos; en tercer lugar, se diferencia el potencial de la renta lo cual antepone una desvalorización, desprestigio o deterioro del territorio, o por el contrario una valoración de algunos sectores permitiendo así la fragmentación territorial. Se podría concluir que la ubicación de los sitios que son segregados se ubica particularmente en la periferia de las ciudades y un efecto dado a esto se dan os problemas de inseguridad que en algunos aspectos perjudica la calidad de vida.

Evolução dos centros de informação e o surgimento dos observatórios de transporte e logística
Authors: Soares Lilian Campos , Do Prado Hércules Antonio , Ferneda Edilson , Cruz Fernando William
Published: August 2020

Este estudo se inicia pelo resgate histórico dos bancos de dados e centros de informação como estruturas precursoras dos observatórios de transporte e logística. É realizada uma revisão sistemática de literatura sobre os conceitos e o surgimento dos bancos de dados, dos centros de informação e dos observatórios. Analisa-se o emprego dos bancos de dados e dos centros de informação no tema de transporte e logística, bem como sua evolução para um modelo organizado de observatório. A partir das evidências encontradas na literatura, pode-se observar que bancos de dados e centros de informação constituem as estruturas iniciais dos observatórios, que surgem na medida em que cumprem funções não atendidas por outras estruturas ou organizações. Considerando as condições históricas, como a crise da informação e os avanços tecnológicos no período pós-segunda guerra mundial, identifica-se a emergência de novos fenômenos na área da Ciência da Informação, como centros de informação e suas variações, incentivados pela necessidade de se obter informação útil e relevante. De forma complementar, é traçada a evolução dos observatórios de transporte e logística e seus desafios na gestão da informação para a tomada de decisão nessa área, o que requer tratamento sistêmico, global e interdisciplinar.
UMA AVALIAÇÃO DAS LEITURAS FILOLÓGICAS DA OBRA DE GRAMSCI E SEUS POSSÍVEIS APORTES PARA AS ESTRATÉGIAS POLÍTICAS
Authors: Balsa Javier
Published: August 2020

Este artigo analisa os principais elementos da leitura filológica da obra de Antonio Gramsci e a seus possíveis aportes para pensar a estratégia política. Na primeira parte do artigo, são sintetizadas as três grandes inovações que essa leitura há gerado: a precisão da concepção gramsciana de objetividade e o abandono da metáfora estrutura-superestrutura; a aclaração da relação entre sociedade civil e sociedade política, e a conceptualização da hegemonia como relações de forças e como luta pela hegemonia, e a revalorização do papel da construção da subjetividade nessas disputas, e a ideia de que existem duas lógicas da hegemonia. E, na segunda parte, se colocam algumas hipóteses das consequências para a política dessas inovações.

GRAMSCI COMO BASE PARA ESTUDAR A RELAÇÃO ENTRE TEORIA E PRÁTICA EM INTELECTUAIS
Authors: Santaella Gonçalves Rodrigo
Published: August 2020

A hipótese central do texto é que a produção teórica de Antonio Gramsci pode contribuir bastante, do ponto de vista metodológico, para pesquisas relacionadas à compreensão da relação entre teoria e prática em intelectuais. Partindo de uma sistematização da forma como Gramsci trata a unidade entre teoria e prática, demonstramos como o marxista sardo defende a identidade entre filosofia, história e política. Argumentamos que essa identidade pode ser utilizada como premissa para o estudo dos intelectuais, o que implica estudar suas ideias constantemente articuladas com o contexto histórico no qual está inserido, mas também com suas atividades propriamente políticas. As três coisas são, na verdade, uma só. Por fim, traçamos uma hipótese geral que relaciona contextos de crise e transição com condições mais favoráveis para a fusão entre teoria e prática nos intelectuais.

Published: August 2020

O decreto Nº 9.175, de 18 de outubro de 2017 trouxe consideráveis e necessárias mudanças ao texto da Lei de Doação de Órgãos, visando dar maior rapidez e garantia para que os procedimentos sejam realizados com pleno êxito, levando-se em consideração que o Brasil figura em posição privilegiada na lista dos paí­ses que mais realizam transplantes no mundo. Por este motivo, este estudo tem por objetivo verificar a efetividade da agilização da doação de órgãos frente a nova legislação brasileira. Utilizou-se como metodologia a revisão integrativa, com busca nos bancos de dados BVS, SciELO e LILACS, que levou a seleção de 10 artigos que analisados levaram a criação de três categorias temáticas: A Conduta da enfermagem frente ao Provável Doador; Fatores que levam a doação ou não de órgãos e A Efetividade da Nova Legislação na Agilização da Doação de Órgãos. Concluiu-se que fica ní­tida a necessidade de verificação mais aprofundada junto aos órgãos competentes, que forneçam dados a respeito da efetivação da doação de órgãos e que aumentem o número de publicações informando e auxiliando o profissional da saúde na minimização de filas e na melhoria de qualidade de vida daquele que tanto almeja uma chance de transplante.

La participation de l’Égypte à la IIème Biennale de São Paulo (1953-1954)
Authors: Atallah Nadine
Published: August 2020

This article introduces in detail the genesis of Egypt’s first participation in the São Paulo Biennial (1953-1954). The story begins with a spontaneous application from a Swiss painter settled in Egypt after having lived in Brazil: Irmgard Micaela Burchard Simaika (1908-1964). Her request soon leads to the project of composing an official delegation to represent the country, at a time when Egypt was going through a period of political change, as the republic was proclaimed in June 1953. Within an artistic landscape deprived of specialized administration, the exhibition’s preparation was associated with several debates to establish who had the skills and legitimacy to select the artworks to be sent to São Paulo. The final list of artists reflects the reality of the Egyptian art worlds in the first half of the 1950s, in which academic personalities mix with a new generation keen to produce art which would stand as modern and authentically national, and with members of foreign elites well integrated into local society. This “group of modern Egyptian art painting, in the words of Burchard, includes a third of women and stands out as one of the most gender balanced pavilions in the Biennial. It thus reveals the important contribution of women to the development of modern art in Egypt and its promotion worldwide.
Traditional Mexican Cuisine: Heritage Implications for Food Tourism Promotion
Authors: Vázquez-Medina José Antonio , Medina F. Xavier
Published: August 2020

This article analyzes how UNESCO's intangible human heritage designation has led to traditional Mexican cuisine being turned into a resource for gastronomic tourism, showing how the State has commodified traditional culinary knowledge for the promotion of tourism. This promotion includes
an official discourse that has been appropriated by traditional women cooks, who use these promotional events to build new culinary canons. This article enables a discussion of how traditional Mexican cuisine has become part of a global logic, and how its designation as intangible heritage
articulates tension, discussion, and negotiation among food tourism industry stakeholders. Findings show a multilateral perspective of the consequences of a cultural event becoming a tourist resource, as well as its conceptualization and transformation in the framework of today's global context,
which requires a more flexible approach to provide definitions.
Exercises to Boost Self-Esteem and Self-Realization
Authors: Hamada Mayumi
Published: August 2020

This paper introduces some enjoyable and effective English exercises used in a 2016 content and language integrated learning (CLIL) course that combined career education and English learning. It also elaborates on the concept of selective attention, the theoretical rationale behind the effectiveness of the exercises. Exercises based on selective attention were designed to train students on how to shift their focus from negative thoughts and feelings such as complaints, anxieties, and regrets, to positive thoughts and feelings such as hopes, dreams, success and happiness. Hamada (2018) found that this 2016 CLIL course significantly enhanced the students’ self-esteem and had a positive effect on their mental attitudes toward life. This paper will also discuss how the exercises based on selective attention influenced the findings of the 2018 study.

The Several Lives of a Collection of Rag Dump Clothing from Normandy (1900–55): From Farm, to Dump, to Poverty Chic
Authors: Taylor Lou
Published: August 2020

This material culture-based text researches the history of a collection of damaged clothing (1900–50s) once worn by farming families in Normandy and Brittany. The clothing was excavated from a textile dump in an abandoned warehouse in Normandy in 2012. This research examines the six life cycle stages of this clothing from original use, to abandonment, resurrection, and upcycling onto the extreme edges of the vintage fashion world. This text then follows the growing use of ragged clothing as design inspiration for both costly couture garments and the cheapest mass high street designs over the last thirty years or more. Carefully destroyed but brand-new and sweet-smelling denim jeans and jackets are now admired by celebrities and young high street fashion consumers around the world as fashionable commodities — worn with little regard to the health dangers faced by workers dealing with sand blasting and bleaches. The research then examines the cultural and social forces behind this interest in destroyed textiles in the world of fashion.
Re-Dressing Race and Gender: The Performance and Politics of Eldridge Cleaver’s Pants
Authors: Blake Art
Published: August 2020

In Paris in 1975 Eldridge Cleaver, exiled revolutionary African American activist, former Minister of Information for the Black Panther Party, appeared in photographs and newspaper articles wearing, and discussing, pants he had designed. The major innovation in Cleaver’s pants was a redesigned crotch: instead of the usual button and zip front opening, his pants featured a soft panel with a protuberant fabric appendage into which Cleaver intended the wearer’s penis to fit. Why did Cleaver channel his intelligence and creativity into menswear at that moment? How did Cleaver’s penis-positive pants design resonate in 1975 with black politics and gender politics? And why am I, a queer transgendered man, writing about these pants? Through this article I hope to contribute to a discussion in fashion studies about the materiality of bodies and the role of self-fashioning, particularly for those living in resistance to dominant codes of gender and race. I situate and analyze Cleaver’s pants in a broad context of the postwar politics of dressing and redressing race and gender in the United States, with references to a longer American history, as well as to a global context of clothing in a postcolonial era. The pants, in both their design and in the act of being worn, materialize acts of raced and gendered insurrection, but in a web of historical power relations that privilege whiteness and cisgender masculinity.
A Fashion Exhibit Without Fashion
Authors: Ayres Jennifer
Published: August 2020

In this review, I critically examine the fashion and art exhibition “fashion after Fashion,” April 7–Aug 27, 2017 at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City, curated by Hazel Clark and Ilari Laamanen. The exhibition design was commissioned work by six interdisciplinary artists/designers who incorporated a mix of sculpture, performance, and audiovisual material into their installations. The different installations, taken together and experienced together, acted back and upon each other in interesting ways in the exhibition, which was a strength of the curators’ method; the use of commissions exclusively acted as a kind of artistic method in itself. The first and most notable thing about the exhibit was that there were no clothes on mannequins. While the exhibition’s premise was on fashion, the intentional absence of clothing was a risky strategy the curators pursued to intervene in how viewers think about fashion. The installations were purposely amorphous and abstract as well to inspire a broader consideration of what fashion can be and what bodies can do. Though the relationship between fashion and the body has been a constant topic in fashion scholarship, this exhibition offered a new perspective through commissioning and showcasing the category-defying work of recent fashion and art school graduates and performance artists.
Status, Votive Luxury, and Labour: The Female Rapper’s Delight
Authors: Lezama Nigel
Published: August 2020

Rap and luxury fashion form hip hop’s most unshakable couple. However, female rappers appear to have a more difficult time acquiring and manipulating luxury fashion. When the female rapper demands expensive clothing from her sex partners, is she complicit in her reification as a sexually alienated subject or is she highlighting the value of black women’s labour? In fact, if we look closely at the nexus of luxury fashion, sexuality, and female rappers, there occurs an important transformation of the luxury sign. For rappers like Roxanne Shanté, Nicki Minaj, and Cardi B, luxury objects and branded fashion are not symbols of taste or habitus, in the sense Bourdieu (1979) gives them. Instead, these female rappers question the social weight carried by the luxury commodity; they demand consecration, in the truest sense of the word, through the luxury gift; or, conversely, they highlight the luxury commodity’s real use value.
Alien Beauty: Posthuman Re-Imaginings
Authors: Mills Presley
Published: August 2020

In the fall of 2018 WGSN (World Global Style Network) ran a report on the emerging “alien beauty” trend, which they defined as “an otherworldly aesthetic inspired by extraterrestrial life forms … signifying a new rebellious attitude towards quintessential beauty norms” (Bailey). Instagram is one of the largest platforms to represent the trend of alien beauty, presented by a thriving community of makeup artists pushing the boundaries of conventional beauty practices. These artists are developing otherworldly and exaggerated makeup looks created through the combination of makeup, fashion, technology, and social media. The following research attempts to outline elements of beauty that are engaged with through alien beauty, and through creative practice presents them on conventionally beautiful bodies to demonstrate new, challenging version of beauty. Alien beauty selfies shared via Instagram can be re-contextualized to challenge existing examples of art, nature, and beauty. Through practice-based methodology and theories of posthumanism, this piece explores the changing ideals of beauty manifested with the support of technology and social media as well as how the term “alien beauty” manifests as a current trend. Considering the re-imagined paintings created to explore alien beauty, they reveal how beauty has been traditionally constructed through a colonial, heteronormative, hegemonic gaze and how “alien” is therefore a form of escapism and rebellion.
The Phantasmagoric World of Thierry Mugler
Authors: Skelly Julia
Published: August 2020

This review of Thierry Mugler: Couturissime approaches the exhibition through a feminist art-historical lens and attends to the various ways that both Mugler’s clothing and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts’ curatorial team has framed and constructed the powerful, threatening woman as a complex figure who is hard, cold, sensual, strong, hard-working, and spectacular, among many other valences. The exhibition, which had its world premiere at the MMFA in March 2019, is organized as a fashion opera in six acts, and each room illuminates disparate yet interconnected parts of Mugler’s body of work: his costumes for a 1985 performance of Macbeth in Paris; the decadent and excessive clothing worn and worshipped by past and present celebrities; the black-and-white power dressing that Helmut Newton and others have canonized in fashion photography; the astounding creations inspired by insects and reptiles; and finally, the cyborgian fembots that have been presented in both Vogue and music videos. The inclusion of photographs and videos — not a new strategy in blockbuster fashion exhibitions — is essential to the success of Thierry Mugler: Couturissime, as they reveal that while these clothes are works of art, they were made to be worn and mobilized. Although not explicitly a feminist exhibition, for viewers who are looking for feminist, political inspiration wherever they can find it Mugler’s warrior women and formidable clothing — whether made of metal, latex or feathers — provide a powerful reminder that clothing is just one of the many weapons in our arsenal.
Artificial Intelligence Based Face Mask Detection System
Authors: Pandey Vivek Kumar
Published: August 2020

With the advent of COVID-19 pandemic, use of mask is mandatory as per WHO/ ICMR guidelines to avert spread of CORONA virus. The post lockdown period has seen increase in cases day by day as people have now stepped out of their home to resume their work and recreational activities. Wearing mask all the time has still not found an enduring place in our day to day routine practices. It is a natural human tendency to be complacent and to remove mask while talking, working or after prolong use just use to relax and breathe properly. Thus not only risking own life but also of others who might have come in contact with the person during the period when he/she was not wearing mask. Presently the inspection of people with/ without mask is being done manually and visually by sentries/ guards present at entry/ exit points. Guards/ Sentries cannot be stationed at every place to keep a check on such people who remove their mask and roam around without restraint once they have been scrutinized at the entry gate. In the proposed system, efforts have been made in inspecting people with/ without mask automatically with the help of Computer vision and Artificial Intelligence. This module detects the face of the individual, identifies whether he/she is wearing mask or not and raises an alarm if the person is detected without wearing mask.
Cyber-Systemics, Systemic Governance and Disruption of the Criminal Law
Authors: Walker-Munro Brendan
Published: August 2020

Criminal law regulators face difficulties in adapting to technological change. They must often operate in environments of significant uncertainty, with changing policy aims and legislative provisions that fail to ‘move with the times’. Rather than engaging with robust, let alone radical theoretical examination of their actions and structure, regulatory organisations struggle to enforce laws in communities affected by technological or systemic change, often leading to claims of overcriminalisation, inadequacy, regulatory overreach or inconsistency. This article suggests that dealing with disruptive criminality solely through legal instruments is a policy failure. Instead, a radical new framework is proposed, embedded in cybernetics (a transdiscplinary approach to exploring regulatory systems). Such a framework — systemic governance — offers a substantially altered way of managing regulatory relationships that resists disruptive change and challenges regulators to find new ways of engaging with the population they seek to influence.
MODELLING EU BIOECONOMY CREDENTIALS IN THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK: THE ROLE OF INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL

Published: August 2020

Given the global importance of bioeconomy for sustainable development and its trendiness in the knowledge driven literature, our research aims to develop a general assessment framework for several shaping factors of bioeconomy fundamentals within the European Union under the decisive impact of the intellectual capital credentials, namely educational attainment, research and development activities and innovation patterns. Considering that there is a high heterogeneity among Member States (MS), selectively regarding the implementation of the intellectual capital in the knowledge economy, but also a differential degree of bioeconomy advances, we have compiled distinct panels on the two groups of EU-28 MS, namely EU-15 (old MS) and EU-13 (new MS). The purpose is to examine the inferences of the intellectual capital in the context of economic development and to shape its role in achieving a sustainable bioeconomy. We have applied several macro-econometric procedures for each considered group, namely: multifactorial macro-econometric models, structural equation modelling (SEM) and Gaussian Graphical Models (GGM), for the period 1995-2016. The results highlight that education, innovation and research, along with main bioeconomy credentials, are at the core of economic development of both EU-13 and EU-15 countries, having distinctive dissimilarities between them, particularly enhanced for the new EU-13 MS.
TXS 0128+554: A Young Gamma-Ray-emitting Active Galactic Nucleus with Episodic Jet Activity

We have carried out a Chandra X-ray and multifrequency radio Very Long Baseline Array study of the active galactic nucleus (AGN) TXS 0128+554, which is associated with the Fermi γ-ray  source 4FGL J0131.2+5547. The AGN is unresolved in a target 19.3 ks Chandra image, and its spectrum is well fit by a simple absorbed power-law model, with no distinguishable spectral features. Its relatively soft X-ray spectrum compared to other compact symmetric objects (CSOs) may be indicative of a thermal emission component, for which we were able to obtain an upper temperature limit of kT = 0.08 keV. The compact radio morphology and measured advance speed of 0.32 c ± 0.07 c indicate a kinematic age of only 82 yr ± 17 yr, placing TXS 0128+554 among the youngest members of the CSO class. The lack of compact, inverted spectrum hotspots and an emission gap between the bright inner jet and outer radio lobe structure indicate that the jets have undergone episodic activity, and were relaunched a decade ago. The predicted γ-ray  emission from the lobes, based on an inverse Compton-emitting cocoon model, is three orders of magnitude below the observed Fermi-LAT flux. A comparison to other Fermi-detected and non-Fermi-detected CSOs with redshift z < 0.1 indicates that the γ-ray  emission likely originates in the inner jet/core region, and that nearby, recently launched AGN jets are primary candidates for detection by the Fermi-LAT instrument.
Binary Intermediate-mass Black Hole Mergers in Globular Clusters

Published: August 2020

We consider the formation of binary intermediate black holes (BIMBHs) in globular clusters (GC), which could happen either in situ or due to the mergers between clusters. We simulate the evolution of the BIMBH orbit (and its subsequent merger) due to stellar ejections. We also take into account the evaporation of GCs due to the tidal field of the host galaxy and two-body relaxation. Our results show that if at least 10−3 of all GCs become BIMBH hosts and the BIMBH masses are ∼1% of the GC mass, at least one of the inspiraling (or merging) BIMBHs will be detected by LISA during its 4 yr mission lifetime. Most of the detected BIMBHs come (1) from heavy GCs (≳3 × 105

M

⊙

), as lower-mass GCs end up being disrupted before their BIMBHs have time to merge, and (2) from redshifts 1 < z < 3, assuming that most GCs form around z ∼ 4 and given that the merger timescale for most BIMBHs is ∼1 Gyr. If the BIMBH to GC mass ratio is lower (∼10−3) but the fraction of BIMBH hosts among GCs is higher (≳10−2), some of their mergers will also be detected by LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA and the proposed Einstein Telescope.
