Novi pravni režim zaštite kolektivnih interesa potrošača u Evropskoj uniji
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Mihajlović Borko
Published: March 2022

In June 2020, the political agreement between the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union has been reached on the final text of the Proposal for a Directive on representative actions for the protection of the collective interests of consumers, which is expected to enter into force by the end of 2020. The European legislator, by the Proposal for a new Directive, aims to strike a right balance between two seemingly conflicting goals: 1) strengthening the protection of consumers’ collective interests, primarily by recognition of the right of individual consumers to obtain redress within the collective proceedings, and 2) preventing possible abuses of the proceedings for the protection of collective interests of consumers, which may produce harmful consequences to the traders, consumers, as well as to the general trust of the citizens in the functionality of the system of the protection of consumers. The author in the paper, after a short overview of the provisions of still current Injunctions Directive from 2009, deals with the main subject of this paper, which comprises the review of the provisions of the Proposal for a new Directive that contributes to the attainment of the stated basic objectives of Directive. In the concluding remarks, the author assesses the expected effects of the new Directive and its success in finding a proper balance between its two main goals (strengthening the protection of consumers and preventing abuses of the proceedings).

The paper discusses disputable issues related to the obligation of the physician to inform the patient in order to obtain his valid consent to undertake a medically indicated procedure. The subject of comparative analysis is this institute in domestic regulation (primarily in the Law on Patients' Rights) and in certain European and Anglo-Saxon solutions, in order to formulate proposals for more adequate determination for domestic regulation de lege ferenda. The author critically analyzes: the doctrine of "informed consent"; the scope of the physician's obligation to inform the patient; the issue of limiting the rules on mandatory patient information, and in particular, the so-called "Therapeutic privilege". The author draws a conclusion about the new legal solution as more comprehensive than the previous one and more harmonized with European standards, which finally recognizes the predominance of the patient's right to self-determination over the principle of preserving the patient's wellbeing. The paper also critically discusses the types and conditions for establishing the civil liability of a physician for damage caused to a patient by denying notification, by violating his personal right to self-determination.

Teorijski aspekt štete prouzrokovane krivičnim delom
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Milojević Marija
Published: March 2022

In this paper, the author theoretically deals with traditional notions of civil law in a new light, from the aspect of criminal substantive and procedural law. The notion of damage caused by a criminal offense is only "the other side of the same coin", one type of damage. In this case, the same act of the crime causes two consequences, or rather one negative change in the real world, due to which the legal system activates two reaction mechanisms - criminal and civil. On the one hand, there is the emergence of a criminal act that triggers the mechanism of protection of private, state and social goods and values - criminal process aimed at imposing a criminal sanction. On the other hand, the damage caused is compensated to the injured party according to the principle of civil law through the institute of a property claim that can be realized in criminal or civil proceedings. The concepts that are in inseparable cooperation are analyzed, such as: the concept of civil law offenses and tortious liability, the concept and types of damage caused by a criminal offense, the demarcation of the concept of damage and the consequence of a criminal offense. Then the author retrospects the realization method of compensation for damage and the circle of subjects who may be responsible for the damage caused by the criminal offence. This paper will be the first in a series of papers in which the author will deal with the problem of compensation for damage in criminal, civil and civil law enforcement proceedings and controversial issues that arise from it (obsolescence of damage compensation claims, subjects responsible for the damage and subjects who can be the holders of a property claim, the adequacy of the procedure in which the property claim is realized, the means of execution of the monetary compensation claim for damage caused by a criminal offense, etc.).

Threats of water pollution, unregulated extraction of resources, and sprawling urbanization are some of the common issues of Mandulog River, a home for indigenous freshwater gobies. This study was conducted to assess the status of freshwater gobies and how the resident communities exert conservation efforts to the river and the inhabiting gobies. Standard method of collection of gobies was done. Interviews with semi-structured questionnaires were used to know the conservation measures of the residents. Ten goby species belonging to three families namely, Family Eleotridae (Belobranchus belobranchus), Giuris margaritacea, and Oxyeleotris lineolata, Family Gobiidae (Awaous melanocephalus), Awaous ocellaris, Glossogobius celebius, Glossogobius giuris, Periophthalmus barbarus and Sicyopterus lagocephalus, and Family Rhyacichthyidae (Rhyacichthys aspro), can be an alternative source of food and livelihood. They were caught by-catch, while employing some destructive fishing methods like cyanide fishing, electric fishing, and use of fine mesh nets. The awareness of the residents to the adverse impacts of water pollution, unregulated human activities, and destructive fishing had strengthened their conservation measures. A multi-stakeholder management approach is created through concerted proactive conservation measures like protection of the goby population, the river-riparian ecosystems, enhanced scientific information, and the legal intervention of the local government.

Authors:   Assistant Prof., Sayed Jamaluddin Afghani University, Faculty of Education, Department of English, Safi Saadatullah
Published: March 2022

This qualitative scale research means to comprehend the act of distributive leadership among senior colleges as like chancellor deans and administrators. The scientist used a non-trial subjective, grounded hypothesis to look into the plan. Theoretical framework distributing leadership in a school network gives a chance for educators to impact important community-oriented or collaborative practices through shared authority. Spillane (2005) clarified that dispersed leadership is a point of view of a calculated or analytic instrument for pondering school authority. It’s anything but a definite diagram for viable authority, nor an expose of how the leader ought to be practiced and shared duties have been a guide in creating research questions. A solitary respondent included, which was the head of the department. The information was gathered utilizing meeting strategies dependent on semi-organized inquiries. Meeting information was dissected through a precise coding procedure to discover themes. In view of the examination of these topics, the most noteworthy subjects that developed reliably are hierarchical culture measurement, trailed by vision, strategic, authoritative objectives measurement, trailed by a common duty measurement, and the least is the element of initiative practices. The university vision, crucial, objectives were shared among individuals in the arranging and performance of exercises. Be that as it may, as a type of authority dependent on shared exercises, there are still spaces for improvements, for example, common trust, closeness, and sharing of obligations.

Authors:   Republic of Indonesia Defense University, Jl. Salemba Raya 14, Jakarta 10440, Sarjito Aris
Published: March 2022

The rapidly spreading impact of Covid-19 has potentially dire consequences for the Ministry of Defense's ability to protect national interests. The unprecedented effects of this pandemic are directly undermining the ability of the Ministry of Defense to carry out the National Defense Strategy. In particular, Covid-19 has harmed the readiness of the Armed Forces, their ability to project power globally, and their speed of modernization for future challenges. This paper uses a descriptive qualitative approach as the main writing approach and uses the concept of impacts across key organizational pillars by Beth McGrath (2020), including (1) Workforce planning, (2) Training methods, (3) Reprioritizing spending, and (4) Policy. The results of this study are: (1) The Ministry of Defense must be prepared with a complete set of strategies, (2) Distributed Virtual Reality training is a natural solution to the challenges posed by the current pandemic, (3) The military has no other choice but to make it a priority in spending on defense equipment and in carrying out military operations. The obvious choice is the big budget items that cause problems, and (4) The defense equipment procurement program, military operations, and Research & Development (R&D) activities are expected to be hampered. As governments seek to prevent and mitigate the impact of this pandemic, the positive role played by military forces can be seen as an excuse to offset some of the expected defense budget cuts.

Insulin Delivery Utilizing Hybrid-Closed-Loop Therapy is More Effective When a Single Basal Rate Rather Than Multiple Basal Rates is Utilized - A Case Report
Authors: S. H. Bell David , Jerkins Terri
Published: March 2022

With Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII) multiple basal rates need to be utilized to avoid nocturnal hypoglycemia, the dawn phenomenon, postprandial hyperglycemia and preprandial hypoglycemia. With the availability of the Hybrid Closed-Loop Therapy (HCLT) systems, the use of multiple basal rates has become unnecessary and counterproductive. When transferring to a HCLT system we utilize a single basal rate for twenty-four hours. By utilizing a single basal rate we have improved multiple metrics of glycemic control in many patients. To illustrate the benefits of transfer to a single basal rate in a HCLT system we present a relevant case.

House and body are two postcolonial spaces that poets often write in their poems. This study aims to analyze the construction of house and body spaces in three modern Indonesian poems. There is a semiotic and symbolic relationship between the spaces and the social facts in postcolonial Indonesia. Upstone’s postcolonial space theory is applied in this research to reveal how the spaces represent the poets’ view of postcolonial Indonesia. The data sources are poetry written by Chairil Anwar, Rendra, and Goenawan Mohamad. This qualitative descriptive research analyzes the poems’ lines or stanzas containing house and body spaces. The data were collected through a literature study, namely, reading the selected poetry texts seriously and deeply. The results show that the house and body spaces in the poetry represent Indonesia in the postcolonial space that was suffered, depressed, and lonely due to migration, hybridity, and multiple identities.

Published: March 2022

The purpose of regulating the Credit Community industry is to standardise moneylenders’ business compliance so that consumers may freely choose where to pursue their moneylending transactions. Media reported an increasing trend on breaching of consumers’ sovereignty by the moneylenders in Malaysia. Thus, the primary role of regulation effectiveness comes into the limelight. It raises the question of whether regulation enhancement supports or deter consumers’ sovereignty. The study was undertaken in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur, where most of the consumers’ issues were handled by non-governmental organisations (NGOs). The phenomenology approach was used to extract the three NGO leaders’ experiences and four regulator officers’ when dealing with the consumers and the licensed moneylenders’ issues. Data from semi-structured interviews and moneylending literature were uploaded into Nvivo 12 for thematic analysis. Findings revealed three themes: the non-governmental organisations’ role as the “watchdog”, the regulator’s educational role, and the regulator’s role in uplifting consumers’ sovereignty. The findings reveal a tendency for consumers with moneylending issues to seek NGOs, which affect the effort of seeking redress. The implication is for the regulator to take the lead in strengthening a three-way working relationship involving the moneylenders’ associations and the NGOs to resolve consumers sovereignty issues.

Authors: Muniandy Jayanthi , Ganapathy Malini , Shuib Munir
Published: March 2022

This study examines factors influencing ESL learners’ behavioural intention in using Edmodo, a social learning network, as a virtual learning community platform under the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use Technology (UTAUT) model with gender as the moderator variable. A total of 200 English language learners from one of the public universities completed a five-point Likert questionnaire based on the UTAUT constructs: performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions. The collected data were analysed using the structural equation modelling (SEM), and the results showed that facilitating conditions were the major predictor of learners’ behavioural intention. Besides, the learners’ gender had a significant moderation effect on social influence and behavioural intention. The findings of this study have the potential to enable English language educators to take into account the importance of the UTAUT factors and gender differences while developing an engaging and active virtual learning community.

Осы орайда қазіргі кездегі салыстырмалы құқықтану ғылымының теориялық негіздерін, сондай-ақ аталған ғылымның әрі құқық саласының зерттеу әдістері мен тәсілдерін нақты анықтап алайық. Әуелі отандық заңгер-ғалым, профессор М. Т. Баймахановтың жазған кітап мазмұнына жүгінейік. Онда «салыстырмалы құқықтану мен мемлекеттану тек жеке ғылыми ғана емес, жалпы ғылыми әдістермен және көптеген зерттеу құралдары жиынтығымен толықтырылып жеке (салыстырмалы) әдіс шеңберінен асып, заң ғылымына бағытталған кең бөлімдердің біріне айналып отыр» [1, б. 6] деп жазылған. Автор аталған пікірімен жалпы негізде келісуге болады. Негізі салыстырмалы құқықтану құқық саласы ретінде арнайы құқық саласына жатады деп санаймыз. Себебі: біріншіден, аталған арнайы құқық саласының жеке зерттеу әдістері мен тәсілдері қазіргі құқық салаларын өзара салыстырып зерделеуде қолданылып келеді; ал енді екіншіден, бұл ретте салыстырмалы-құқықтық талдау тәсілі барлық құқық салаларының құқықтық институттары мен нормаларына жалпы жүйелі, жеке және өзара салыстыру іс-әрекеттері жасалады; үшіншіден, бұл арнайы құқық саласы сонымен қатар шет елдердің ұлттық заңнамаларын, сондай-ақ халықаралық құқықтың тиісті салаларымен салыстырылып зерттеледі. Сонымен қатар ерекше айта кетер жайт, мемлекеттануды зерделеу барысында салыстырмалы-құқықтық талдау тәсілі міндетті түрде қолданылады.
ИЗМЕНЕНИЕ СОЦИОКУЛЬТУРНОГО ПРОСТРАНСТВА МАССОВОЙ КУЛЬТУРЫ В ЭПОХУ ИНТЕРНЕТА
Authors: Б. Т. Смагулова  , Г. Т. Артыкбаева
Published: March 2022

Анализируется эволюция массовой культуры в эпоху распространения глобальной сети Интернет. Обозначены концептуальные характеристики массовой культуры. Делается акцент на том, что с распространением Интернета проявляются переходные явления в современной массовой культуре. Интернет рассматривается не только как средство коммуникации и передачи информации, но прежде всего как фактор, влияющий на многие аспекты социокультурной жизни. Подчеркивается, что наряду с известными направлениями появляются исследования массовой культуры связанные с распространением глобальной сети. Данные взгляды использованы в данном исследовании, как материалы к пониманию состояния массовой культуры как переходного. Переходность понимается как закат массовой культуры или как расширение ее поля в Интернет эпоху. Рассмотрены некоторые особенности перехода от экранной культуры к сетевой и последствия этого перехода для эволюции современной культуры. Представлены статистические данные о увеличении доли потребителей Интернета в мире и Казахстане. Дается анализ влияния телевидения и Интернета на сознание современного человека как массового потребителя. Подчеркиваются как общие, так и отличительные особенности данных трансляторов культуры потребления. Делаются выводы о пространстве современной социокультурной деятельности, где распространение Интернета, сетевой культуры с принципами персонализации, индивидуализации, ведут к изменению массовой культуры, однако Интернет продолжает развивать многие концепты массовой культуры, такие как шаблонность, доступность, тиражирование, массовизация сознания и т.д. В связи с распространением Интернeта стереотипы массовой культуры не могут оставаться актуальными. Культурные индустрии современности создаются в персонализированной сети Интернета.

Esta produção científica apresenta-se como uma pesquisa bibliográfica e qualitativa, sobre a Socialização e Compartilhamento  do Conhecimento em Sala de Aula, caracterizandose como uma pesquisa de natureza básica. A partir de uma pesquisa já desenvolvida no ano de 2019, fora realizada a apresentação de seus resultados neste trabalho com a finalidade deapresentar os resultados aferidos como uma forma de contribuição acadêmica e profissional, bem como um estudo motivador à continuidade de se pesquisar sobre este assunto. O Compartilhamento do Conhecimento em sala de aula está envolto pela ação docente aliada à socialização entre o profissional da educação e seus alunos. Muitas vezes, esta é que uma ferramenta da Gestão do Conhecimento, está presente na ação docente sem que este tenha consciência de que a está praticando. Nesse sentido, buscar-se-á apresentar os resultados aferidos numa pesquisa já desenvolvida onde a metodologia utilizada para a construção deste estudo pautou-se com a análise de dados secundários a partir de uma revisão bibliográfica, tomando-a como base de apoio para aplicação de uma nova problemática numa área mais ampla, sendo esta de que forma os professores dos 5º’s anos do Ensino Fundamental Regular Matutino da rede pública de ensino do Município de Maringá - Paraná, socializam ecompartilham conhecimento no espaço de sala de aula?
A Review Paper on Benzidine
Authors: Dr. Anjum Ansari
Published: March 2022

Benzidine is a manufactured chemical that does not occur naturally. It is a crystalline solid. It will evaporate slowly from water and soil. In the environment, benzidine is found in either its “free” state (as an organic base), or as a salt (for example benzidine dihydrochloride or benzidine sulfate). In air, benzidine is found attacked to suspended particles or as a vapor. It is a di-acid base and forms salts with the mineral acids. It is readily brominated and nitrated; when the nitration is carried out in presence of sulphuric acid, the nitro groups take up the meta-position with regard to the amino groups. Benzidine is stable, combustible and incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. Benzidine-based dyes are relatively stable in air and in solution at ambient temperatures but degrade in aqueous solution at high temperatures, particularly in presence of iron. Benzidine is a manufactured chemical that does not occur naturally in the environment. Benzidine and its breakdown products can be detected in urine but only within about two weeks after exposure. Benzidine is an important product in the dye industry and is a common constituent of several hair dyes, despite its well-known carcinogenic effects particularly with regard to bladder tumors. Benzidine and its derivative are widely used in the manufacture of dyestuffs and are common constituents of pigments, hair-dyes, inks, polymers and rubber compounding. Benzidine is widely used for the analysis of sulphate and for detection of hydrogen cyanide and phenol in atmosphere.
The Transition from Short- to Long-Term Marine Corrosion of Carbon Steels: 1. Experimental Observations
Authors: Melchers Robert E. , Jeffrey Robert
Published: March 2022

This paper is concerned with developing an understanding of the transition between modes 1 and 2 of the bi-modal characteristic often observed for corrosion (mass) loss of many different alloys and in a variety of longer-term (years) exposure conditions. Corrosion losses and pit depth and size for carbon steels (0.01 wt%, 0.04 wt%, and 0.06 wt% C) immersed continuously in sheltered 20°C (av.) seawater, 30°C (constant) seawater, and 70°C (constant) distilled water environments are reported with observations at 14 d and 28 d intervals over 1.4 y. The data allow clear demonstration of bi-modal behavior and variability in mass loss much less than typical for unprotected environments. All cases showed significant development of pit depths and pit areas particularly later in mode 1, through the transition phase and into mode 2. Using established observations of pitting mechanisms, the development of pitting is interpreted as facilitating the reduction in pH at the corrosion interface that permits the cathodic reaction to change from oxygen reduction in mode 1 to hydrogen evolution in mode 2, consistent with longer-term predominantly anaerobic corrosion in the later part of the bi-modal model. The observations also shed some light on the relationship between pitting corrosion and what is conventionally referred to as uniform corrosion.
