Defusing counterexamples against motivational internalism
Authors: Park Seungbae
Published: November 2024

Externalists argue that motivation is external to moral judgments on the grounds that people can be unmoved by their moral judgments. I reply that people sometimes act indifferently to their moral considerations not because their moral judgments lack motivation but because their moral judgments are obstructed by rival desires. It appears that the moral motivation wanes while the moral judgments linger. In reality, however, the moral motivation is only made inconspicuous by the motivation of the opposing desires. A moral judgment is subject to obstruction just like an emotive judgment and a gustatory judgment.
Philosophical method and science
Authors: Saulius Tomas
Published: November 2024

The paper deals with an issue of philosophical methodology, taking into account Wittgenstein’s critical remark that philosophy (metaphysics), in its modus operandi, imitates science. The thesis of the paper is that such approach is wrong because the peculiarity of philosophical thinking cannot be adequately conceptualized in terms of formal logic. This is shown by the analysis of three cases (Plato, Aristotle and Descartes), i. e. three classical metaphysical projects dedicated to the discovery of “the first principles”.
Creative technologies entrapped by instrumental mind
Authors: Kanišauskas Saulius
Published: November 2024

The paper poses a question why creative processes are more and more often related to technologies and that is clearly visible in institutionalized scientific, cultural and political discourses. It is noteworthy that technologies, creative technologies including, are becoming instrumental mind-based methods, which aim to perform everything more efficiently, more economically and more advantageously. This way creative activity loses its essence and becomes a commodity easily defined in economic categories, and thus it is employed as an effective means used to control, influence and even manipulate the human consciousness. It is likely that modern technologies push everything that is essential to human life to periphery, everything that joins people for shared activities and has intrinsic values. The paper attempts to show that even the so-called “scientific axiology” based on formal social technologies is unable to deal with axiological problems of creative human essence if personal or subject-related intrinsic values are not taken into account. This way it is most likely to happen that such evaluation which emphasizes individual and unique emotional and spiritual human reality tends to be downplayed. This fact corroborates intuitive understanding that technologies employed in creative activities should serve only as a supplementary tool but not become a self-contained tool which overshadows transcendental human creative powers.It points to the conclusion that though the usage of technical terms in contemporary science and art (culture, in general) is hardly avoidable, it should be attempted to return to the initial concept of creativity according to which it is perceived as a spontaneous self-expression. The underlying reason for the idea is that penetration of modern technologies into the domain of artistic creativity destroys the human essence, and turning creativity into a technological process leads to inevitable destruction of a creative process.
Intercultural origin and philosophical background of Argentinian Tango
Authors: Juzefovič Agnieška
Published: November 2024

The paper offers a philosophical and anthropological investigation of the industry of entertainment, which during recent decades has faced the process of rapid development and transformations. The author argues that various intercultural influences have played an essential role in the process of its formation, development and spreading. Tango developed as a product of the influences of Afro-Argentinians, local nomadic cowboys (gauchos) and European immigrants who flooded Argentina at the end of XIX century. Therefore the philosophical and cultural background of this dance is profoundly multicultural. Cultural interactions become even more intensive after tango went beyond Argentina and conquered Europe and the USA. Recently, in academic discourses, there coexist two different views towards the phenomenon of tango – local and global: traditional Argentinian “el tango porteño” is replaced by “el tango nomade”. Both the localized and globalized aspects of tango dance contribute to the result that it became so popular and dynamic field of the industry of entertainment. Phenomenology and philosophy of the dialogue helps to unveil essential, philosophical aspects of communication performed through tango dance. The German philosophers M. Heidegger and H. Arendt and the Austrian philosopher of Jewish origin M. Buber help to analyze tango from the perspectives of phenomenology and philosophy of the dialogue. Such a philosophical approach reveals a dialogical nature of this dance, enables to regard it as a silent dialogue, authentic and deep human relationships.
Creative visualizations of ethical principles of Ancient Greek Cynicism and their significance to modern society
Authors: Valatka Vytis
Published: November 2024

This article analyzes the application of creative visualization in the ethics of Ancient Greek Cynicism. The author concentrates on visualizations of 2 fundamental ethical principles (vicious chase of pleasures and virtuous radical temperance) and their relevance to modern society. The author comes to a conclusion that Cynics visualized the first principle through the image of a never-ending wheel of slavery and a concrete illness – dropsy, whereas the second one was visualized through the image of remedy for the above mentioned disease and slavery as well as images of the result of taking that remedy, that is, permanent health, freedom and happiness. The both visualizations bear an evident creative character. The other important conclusion is that those visualizations are not relevant to contemporary society. Yet, being prototypes of relevant modern visualizations of hasty chase of pleasures and mild temperance, they retain significance to that society.

The thematic triangle of the politics of memory in new post-Soviet democracies
Authors: Matonytė Irmina Matonytė , Vidūnaitė Morta
Published: November 2024

The article is aimed at building a theoretical framework for an empirical analysis of the politics of memory in a new post-Soviet democracy. We elaborate on the concept of new democracy and highlight that in late post-Soviet countries it might be defined through three interrelated variables of trustworthy institution building, promotion of civil rights, and consistent foreign policy. We refine the concept of the politics of memory underlining the electoral origins of public policies addressing the painful issues of the past. To find out how the politics of memory evolves in the new post-Soviet democracy, we distinguish three memory issues of highly contentious nature: lustration, ban on public display of Soviet symbols, and compensation from Russia for Soviet occupation.

Analysis of the Application of Income Tax Planning 21 Paid by the Company as an Effort to Save Corporate Income Tax Expenses and Earnings Management (Case Study of PT Aksara Karya Konsultan). Income tax 21 for employees or experts of PT Aksara Karya Konsultan uses the gross up method. This study aims to be able to minimize the amount of costs in corporate tax. So, tax planning is needed in accordance with the laws and regulations in force in Indonesia. With this method, the company ends up bearing the tax burden of employees and experts so that the annual cost burden incurred by the company is quite high. Companies are included in corporate taxpayers who have an obligation to pay taxes. In this study, researchers chose Descriptive and Case Study research methods because this research problem is still unclear or there is no suitable data about the problem to be studied. Therefore, researchers go directly to the field to explore the object of research. The use of the Gross Up method will make the amount of income tax paid greater than the Nett method because the company must take into account the taxes that must be paid by employees. The amount of income tax paid will be smaller than the Gross Up method if the company uses the Nett method because the company does not need to take into account the taxes that must be paid by employees. The Gross Up method can be more profitable

Authors: Yani Akhmad
Published: November 2024

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of safety training programs in the construction sector and the role of management in enhancing compliance with Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) standards through a literature review. The research employs a literature study method, gathering data from 20 articles indexed in Sinta and Scopus between 2018 and 2023. Conducted over two months (June and July 2024), the study identifies the most effective training methods for improving OHS compliance. It also highlights the managerial role in ensuring that safety training is well adopted and implemented by workers on-site. The findings reveal that from 2018 to 2023, the implementation of OHS across various sectors has shown significant progress, particularly with the adoption of advanced technologies like Virtual Reality (VR) and the Internet of Things (IoT). However, gaps in understanding and applying OHS, especially in SMEs and construction, persist, with a need for increased awareness and comprehension. A more proactive managerial role and the integration of smart technologies are crucial for enhancing the effectiveness of OHS training and worker safety. Future research should explore the broader application of VR and IoT in various sectors and assess the long-term effectiveness of OHS training programs supported by these technologies. Further studies are needed to address the challenges in implementing OHS in SMEs and construction to achieve higher safety standards

The result is the Nordic Toolbox for a Just Green Transition, which contributes to a transition towards a climate neutral Nordic Region that is socially just. The comprehensive and interactive toolbox offers guidance for Nordic policymakers to navigate challenges, listen to those affected, and get inspired. The toolbox highlights six priority areas for enabling a just green transition, and offers policy memos from four socially at-risk groups: older adults, youth, people with disabilities and those at risk of unemployment. Through practical tools and examples, a structured checklist, policymakers can gain insights into how to take action for a transition that is not only green – but equitable too.
Modelo de formación en competencias directivas para los mandos medios y superiores del Instituto Tecnológico de Milpa Alta
Authors: Macías Díaz Héctor Francisco
Published: November 2024

Esta investigación tuvo como finalidad diseñar un modelo de formación en competencias directivas para los mandos medios y superiores del Instituto Tecnológico de Milpa Alta (ITMA) que les permita mejorar su desempeño y contribuir al cumplimiento de la misión y alcanzar la visión institucional.
El modelo se sustentó en la gestión por competencias, específicamente en el enfoque conductista que se interesa por las conductas o comportamientos observables de las personas en el desempeño de su puesto o profesión. Para definir las competencias se utilizó la investigación documental y la elaboración de una encuesta que se aplicó a los mandos medios y superiores del ITMA mediante un Diagnóstico de Necesidades de Capacitación (DNC).
A partir de los resultados de la encuesta y del trabajo con un grupo de expertos se precisaron las competencias y sus grados, se construyó el modelo de formación por competencias directivas, se propuso un programa formativo para la adquisición y el desarrollo de las competencias y se desarrollaron las unidades de formación (cursos).
A fin de evaluar el impacto del programa formativo, se propuso una estrategia de seguimiento y evaluación que permitiera obtener información útil para analizar los cambios logrados a partir de la formación y el desarrollo de las competencias directivas.
Una vez construido el modelo de formación en competencias directivas y llevada a cabo su implementación mediante el diseño del programa formativo, se concluye que la formación y el desarrollo por competencias es un proceso que coadyuva a mejorar la habilitación de los directivos, pero que requiere de la correcta definición de las competencias, la descripción de sus grados, la generación de un modelo, el desarrollo de un programa formativo, su implementación y de un seguimiento y evaluación que permita determinar el impacto en los resultados.

A Study of Thing-Narrative in The Masque of the Red Death
Authors: Ding Ruyu
Published: November 2024

The Masque of the Red Death is one of Edgar Allan Poe‘s most important works, which has been studied by numerous  scholars from the perspectives of style, narrative aesthetics, and semiotics. However, the relevant interpretation to date  has almost completely ignored the description of things in the novel. At present, there is an obvious “material turn” or  “non-human turn” in the field of humanities research, that is, the research perspective turns to the “object” components  that have been largely ignored in the past, including animals, plants, minerals, ecosystems, landscapes, places, etc.  Therefore, from the perspective of the thing-narrative, combined with the social and historical background of the works,  this paper analyzes Poe‘s use of thing-narrative techniques through close reading of the text. Through the in-depth  analysis of the interaction between things and characters in the story, the author explains how castles, rooms, and ebony  clocks, as cultural symbols, agents with subjectivity, exist as noumenon, influence or predict the fate of characters, and  promote the development of the plot. And to further clarify Poe‘s theme in this novel - the inevitability of death.

Published: November 2024

Purpose: The objective of this Integrative Review of Literature (IRL) was to assess the efficacy of duloxetine in the management of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) among cancer patients. Peripheral neuropathy associated with chemotherapy manifests as symptoms such as tingling, burning, numbness, weakness, or pain in the hands and feet. The detrimental and, in some cases, debilitating impact of CIPN on individuals undergoing cancer treatment underscores the significance of investigating the effectiveness of duloxetine as part of the treatment plan for this condition. Procedure: A comprehensive literature search was performed to identify peer-reviewed journal articles on the effectiveness and safety of the use of duloxetine for the treatment of CIPN. The search was conducted using two electronic databases: CINHAL and PubMed. Additional supplemental sources, including the American Cancer Society, American Society of Clinical Oncology, Google Scholar, and Medline, were used to compile additional information for review. Results: The strengths and weaknesses of each article were reviewed utilizing the Johns Hopkins Research Appraisal tool. A data synthesis review exhibited good to high-quality articles with a range of evidence, including Level I, Level II, and Level III. Research yielded positive outcomes in reducing pain, increasing quality of life, and reducing the severity of symptoms for both physical and mental health with Duloxetine treatment. Results showed effectiveness and tolerability in the treatment of CIPN. Adding Duloxetine to the CIPN treatment plan positively impacted pain management and enhanced quality of life (QoL). Conclusion: Studies revealed that Duloxetine, as a pharmacologic intervention, resulted in a reduction in pain and an improvement in the quality of life (QoL) for patients experiencing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Duloxetine demonstrated enhanced effectiveness, safety, and tolerability in its outcomes. Notably, the American Society of Clinical Oncology has designated Duloxetine as the standard of care for CIPN. Given its status as the standard of care, there is a higher likelihood of favorable considerations for Duloxetine by insurance companies.

Forecasting 3PL demand of warehousing services with interval type-3 fuzzy logic and GM (1,1)
Authors: Francisco Trejo  , Rafael Torres Escobar  , Alberto Ochoa-Zezzatti
Published: November 2024

Real-world information can be vague or imprecise, not reliable, where the information is presented in fragments, ambiguity in the data, or even contradictory information, these can lead to uncertainty, but even this uncertainty we need to take decisions [1]. Part of this uncertainty can be handled by different un-certainty models, such: grey systems [2-3], type-1, type-2 [4-7] or typ-3 fuzzy systems, all used represent this uncertainty with numbers. But some-times, there more complex situations are, it is extremely difficult to find the precise numeric value or model to provide accurate value for any uncertain entity. This paper pro-vides a state-of-the-art review on the different applications of the type-3 [8-18]and grey systems [19-30] and proposes the application of Type-3 fuzzy logic for demand forecasting within the supply chain combined with the preciseness GM (1,1) of the grey systems theory (GST), applied for predicting the demand of warehousing services (3PL) in the industry. While utilizing interval type-3 fuzzy logic helps handling the uncertainty in the decision-making when forecasting re-duces its effect, the GM (1,1) improves its accuracy. Type-3 Fuzzy Logic is a robust and capable model to cope with high-order uncertainties associated with non-stationary time-dependent features of the GM (1,1). The main objective this paper is to present Type-3 fuzzy logic, denoted as A3, combined with a GM (1,1) model, which provides better results than its individual application. The hybrid approach is formed by an interval type-3 fuzzy model structured by fuzzy if then rules that, utilize as inputs the linear GM (1,1) equation. The contribution is the new scheme based on interval Type-3 Fuzzy Logic and the linear GM (1,1), which has not been proposed before, aiming to achieve and accurate forecast of multivariable forecasts time series, while reducing the mathematical complexity of the model. The fuzzy rules can be established with the Mandami reasoning meth-od, but in this paper were established with the Sugeno-Takagi-Kang approach. The proposed method has been compared with previous works and its results confirm the superiority of the Type-3 Fuzzy Logic combined with the GM (1,1).

The Local Marginal Price (LMP) represents the value of energy at a specific moment and location, and its proper management is crucial for the development of the country's strategic sectors. This study compares the ADR, RPSG, SARIMA, and LSTM-H models for predicting the LMP, achieving an approximate effectiveness of 88%. By implementing it in 28 nodes of the three interconnection systems (SIN, BCA, and BCS) in Mexico, the results of the enhanced LSTM network analysis are presented through sensitivity analysis and an ensemble with Prophet, yielding the following metrics: MAE: 0.0189, MSE: 0.0101, RMSE: 0.1007, and MAPE: 12.18, at node 05PAR-115 in Hidalgo del Parral, Chihuahua. This model can construct tree diagrams (ADR) that identify the critical variables for predicting the LMP of any node, significantly contributing to the accuracy of predictive analysis models.
