Published: May 2022

The issues of the formation of the institute of corporate control and its development in the practice of international companies have been of considerable scientific and practical interest since the 30s of the last century, in the zero years of the XXI century, due to a number of circumstances, there was a decrease in interest in these studies. In the last decade, there has been an increase in the attention of economic scientists to the development of this institute. This is due to an increase in investment activity in the mergers and acquisitions market, an increasing number of corporate conflicts between company managers and shareholders, and increased volatility in capital markets. Currently, in the context of the formation of a new paradigm of Russian investment policy, the study of modern institutions of the market economy, the study of the practical experience of the effective activities of international foreign and domestic companies, including the study of corporate control processes, has great scientific and practical value. The authors of the article have repeatedly addressed this topic. For example, in 2021, an article «The economic nature of escrow accounts in the practice of international companies» was published on the pages of the journal «Industrial Economics», which presented some theoretical and practical aspects of the use of these payment tools for the assignment of corporate control. In this scientific article, the scope of the research of the institute of corporate control has been expanded, the authors have analyzed the theoretical provisions that reveal its essence and principles, and the practice of applying corporate control in the activities of international companies operating in the field of healthcare is presented.

Reviewed by Damien Rogers

Carl Bradley’s much anticipated first book is a timely and welcome contribution to our shared understanding of outlaw biker groups. By focusing on how these groups use violence to forge a strong sense of collective identity among their members while maintaining intragroup order and to pursue some of their more pernicious ends while engaging in intergroup rivalries, Bradley demonstrates why outlaw biker groups are an increasingly important phenomenon in the conduct of contemporary world affairs and, as such, worthy of sustained scholarly attention. Just as the number of these groups increases throughout Europe and North America, as well as in Australia and New Zealand land, the membership of outlaw biker groups – including those who choose to associate with them – continue to grow. Bradley underscores the extent to which these groups are a force to be reckoned with at the local, national and global levels, illustrating how the reach of their power broadens and deepens through the many international connections fostered among these bikers. This sometimes results in the ‘patching over’ of a smaller group into a larger one and, at other times, increases the scale, or intensifies the frequency, of a group’s transnational activities.

ARAT SABULUNGAN : STRATEGI DAN NEGOSIASI KULTURAL MINORITAS MUSLIM DI KEPULAUAN MENTAWAI
Authors: Wirman Eka Putra , Ilham Muhammad , Refinaldi
Published: May 2022

This article will describe the recruitment strategy for the younger generation segment and the cultural negotiation strategy of the Mentawai Muslim minority in the midst of local traditions. Practically, this paper contributes to friendly and negotiable models of Islamic cultural studies with local values. The research was conducted with a qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and interview techniques. Data analysis was carried out with reference to technical analysts Miles and Huberman. Arat Sabulungan as a local belief for the original Mentawai people, is an elementary value for the Mentawai people. The historical-political factors of the New Order era, sociologically, made the consistency of religious beliefs not smooth. In addition, this is also caused by cultural negotiations which in the Islamic concept are more "difficult" compared to non-Islamic ones. The practice of Arat Sabulungan is a variable that contributes to the difficulty of the cultural negotiation. The strategy used by Islamic preachers which has been considered successful so far is by way of syncretic da'wah and education. The younger generation is a “guarded group”.

COMPUTER SIMULATION IN THE ANALYSIS OF POLITICAL PROCESSES
Authors:   Master's student Tashkent University of Oriental Studies Tashkent, Uzbekistan, Marupov Jasur R.
Published: May 2022

As a rule, when considering socio-political processes, the system under consideration becomes one of the subjects of politics: a political structure, a state, a state institution, a party, a political leader. Each subject has its own environment and a hypersystem that unites them (country, administrative-territorial community, production team, legislative body, apparatus, party, etc.). The purpose of the study may be to identify the conditions for the stability of a given system (preservation of systemic quality), achieving the goal while maintaining stability or programmed decay, adaptation modalities, etc. Depending on the task, a model is created that describes the most necessary elements and relationships, from which, for example, , to a large extent depends on the development and maintenance of the quality of the system or the achievement of goals. The result of modeling a real system is its model, which becomes the subject of direct study. Modeling is the process of creating a secondary object, in addition to modeling real processes on it. Especially when building mathematical and computer models, one often has to deal with a skeptical attitude towards modeling. At first glance, the reasons for skepticism are important. In fact, in this case, the real system is replaced by its simplified similarity.

EROTICA – A CURE OR A DISEASE OF OUR DEMOCRACY?
(ACCORDING TO THE BULGARIAN LITERATURE OF THE EARLY 21ST CENTURY)
Authors: KIROVA Milena
Published: May 2022

Anyone who experienced the late 20th century remembers the astonishing sexualization of Bulgarian culture that erupted with the first steps of the longed-for democracy. Bulgarian literature likewise took an active part in this process. It used the erotic narrative as a sign of its own ability to evolve; it tried to tie up the broken ties with the modernism between the two world wars, emulating American writers such as Henry Miller and Charles Bukowski.
The article examines the work of those writers who revived the erotic narrative in Bulgarian literature in the 1990s and the beginning of the 21st century. It looks at the different genres of their writing: from the mass literature on mafia-and-crime themes through the attempt of the former emigrant Dimitar Bochev to become the “Bulgarian Bukowski” to the socially oriented novels of young at that time authors such as Palmi Ranchev and Stefan Kisyov. What all these authors have in common is their desire to become famous and marketable by reproducing the sexist Balkan model of male-female relations.
Women’s Writing offered an alternative to this kind of literary erotica, which gained strength after the mid-1990s and found realization in the work of writers such as Silvia Choleva, Miglena Nikolchina and Emilia Dvorianova.
The second part of the article is devoted to the erotic imagery in the work of Viktor Paskov. It traces its development from his earliest works (“Infantile Murders” and “Martina”) through the novel “Germany – a Dirty Tale” to his last book, “Autopsy of a Love”.
WHEN FATE PLAYS MAHJONG
(AMY TAN ‘THE JOY LUCK CLUB’)
Authors: KOSTOVA-PANAYOTOVA Magdalena
Published: May 2022

The article considers the way of formation of the concept of comparative literature today as associated with crossing borders, rejecting binary oppositions, striving for openness, expanding and breaking the canon. Amy Tan, a Chinese descent writer, is one of the new American literature writers whose novels convey the consequences of inclusion in the literary canon and the complex cultural hybridity of the dioecious author, who is not "white," is and is a woman. The game of mahjong (the meanings of which are sparrows or a flock of sparrows) is not only their way of having fun but also their way to challenge destiny, to reshuffle and rearrange the "tiles," or the "hand" life has given them in a patriarchal preordered world; to connect the similar signs and to change what was written just as the game itself changes according to their moves. Although different from one another, the four „sparrows” are strong enough and smart enough to stand tall against misery and create a new life both for themselves and their daughters. Precisely why the hope for passing the baton to the next generation, the care, and the joy are at the core of the novel's main messages. This hope is realized through the mother-daughter relationship, which occupies a central place in the story, pushing away all other relationships (mothers-sons, fathers-daughters, and husband-wife), and the emotional center of the described world: eight separate yet interconnected lives. This novel is a parable about how mothers, through their memory, history, imagination, remain inside their daughters, how human experience, pain, and hope are transmitted, and in this way, the parable has universal characteristics.

EXPATRIATE STUDENTS’ MOTIVATION TO LEARN ENGLISH
Authors: MARKOVA Zarina , TARKINI Alexandra
Published: May 2022

The aim of this article is to present and analyse the motivational factors that drive expatriates in Brussels to learn English as a second language. Brussels is a very cosmopolitan city, where 179 different nationalities live and use English as a lingua franca to communicate among each other. There is not much research on expatriates in the literature on second language learning motivation, and all the available publications focus on the motivation to learn the language of the host country rather than global English. The present study takes a quantitative research approach in the context of Dornyei’s second language self-motivation theory. It employs Taguchi, Magid and Papi’s (2009) questionnaire to understand what motivational factors are most related to the effort expatriates intend to invest in studying English. The surveyed group consists of 40 expatriates learning English in Brussels. The main outcome of the statistical analysis is that the attitudes towards learning English and the incentive values (a variable which includes promotion- and prevention-focused instrumental motives and travel orientation) are the factors most closely related to the intended effort to learn English, whereas the Ideal L2 self and the Ought-to L2 self do not directly correlate with the intended effort.

The emigration of peoples from the area of Western Bosnia and Herzegovina during the Balkans civil conflict and implications for the Avifauna (Case study Pašića polje at Bosansko Grahovo)
Authors: Marić Drago
Published: May 2022

We compare the avifauna between two peeriods, before and after Balkans civil conflict in a region of Western Bosnia, the municipality of Bosansko Grahovo. The present study investigated bird-abundance in 3 habitats (lokalites) of the area Pašića polje: 1) Settlements/village Luka, 2) Pastures, 3) Meadow and Agricultural land. Thirty years of data on bird numbers in breading season (from 20th May until end of June) were analysed. By doing this we were able to capture the overall changes that happened at the landscape level and understand them in terms of ecological processes taking place at the habitat scale. Forty-six bird species were observed. We detected more species and more individuals in the period between 2004 and 2018. Our study demonstrated that abundance of the bird sgnificantly different before and after the Balkans civil conflict. Abundance of 35 species was different in the two study periods and during the first period the mean abundance was mostly lower than in the second one. Two species disappeared from the investigated localities, E. citrinella and A. campestris, while several species expanded their range or nesting site. The big decline in the Pašića polje region of some species such as the O. oenanthe, the M. alba, on the pastures, and the P. domesticus and P. pica in the settlements, can be explained by outmigration and changes in land use patterns, or non-use. Rural emigration has been complete (all population) during Balkans civil conflict and a smaller part of the population returned only after 3-5 years. Most of the changes observed support the hypothesis that the differences observed in the bird community are caused by the changes that occurred in the vegetation as a result of agricultural and grazing abandonment.

By collecting data from 132 Moroccan internet users via online survey, which was conducted between May and June, 2020, after the declaration of the state of emergency, the present study gathered concrete information and viewpoints regarding Moroccan male and female internet users’ feedback about political leaders’ communication strategies; trust in different sources and media channels, and perception of the Moroccan political leaders’ crisis communication management.  The findings of the study have revealed that younger male and female publics, who got news from social media, had negative views of authority messages, and expressed more negative opinions of the government’s crisis response and communication strategies as weeks went by. Therefore, trust in public authorities’ decreased as the crisis evolves. Other age group, 60 years or older of the respondents get information about the crisis from institutional political sources and mainstream news media, which have been more aligned with authorities’ information at the start of the health crisis. In addition, women have used multiple media platforms, but they have less direct access to information than do men.

Gendering the pandemic: the effect of the Covid-19 lockdown on female students’ household labor allocation in Morocco
Authors: ROSTOM Meryem
Published: May 2022

As the Covid-19 spread across the world, it has affected the lives of people from all walks of life. While confined to home after the imposed lockdowns and closure of educational institutions, girls were called upon to perform family chores and assume caregiving roles. This may result in limited time and energy to continue their learning at a distance. Using survey data collected in April and May 2020 from a sample of Moroccan female first year university students, the present paper analyzes the effect of household labor allocation during home confinement on female students’ remote learning. Findings demonstrate how the immediate effects of covid-19 pandemic showed themselves in education with girls being left behind, and display how the crisis has widened gender inequalities and created new challenges in a society where gender-based discrimination and traditional social norms already exist. Understanding the gender-differentiated impacts of the Covid-19 crisis is necessary to design policy responses that reduce pre-existing social and educational vulnerabilities and ensure that the gender parity progress achieved in recent decades is not reversed.

Authors: Uleanya Chinaza , Alex Jogymol
Published: May 2022

Sequel to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, many institutions of learning: primary, secondary schools and universities across the world, regardless of their location have seen the urgent need to transit from onsite to online teaching. Meanwhile, many institutions of learning especially those in rural areas with limited infrastructures, and students are unprepared for such. This is envisaged to negatively impact the learning abilities of students. Hence, this study explored the acceptance and preparedness of students for self-regulated online learning, using a purposively selected South African Rural Higher Institution of Learning (SARHIL). Quantitative method was adopted for data collection in the study. Data was collected from 274 randomly selected undergraduates studying at the selected rural university. The statistical software SPSS version 25 was used to analyse the collected data using descriptive statistics. The finding of the study showed that students from the selected rural university are unprepared for self- regulated learning due to different factors and lack of support. The study recommends amongst others that students should be motivated using various means to embrace self-regulated learning especially as it concerns the current trend in the global world.
La synergie entre le terrain et la recherche pédagogique
Authors: Bouabdallah Ibrahim
Published: May 2022

Le processus d’instauration d’une recherche pédagogique durable au secteur scolaire au Maroc a enregistré de faibles performances et n’a pas encore abouti à décrocher une reconnaissance parmi les opérateurs de recherche. La connexion de cette recherche avec le terrain est visée comme un facteur limitant de relance à l’aube du 21ème siècle. Au moyen d’une méta-analyse de trois types de documents incluant cinq rapports issus des instances éducatives, huit textes législatifs et deux travaux de littérature, la présente investigation examine la synergie entre les structures professionnelles et la sphère de recherche visant lui donner une nouvelle impulsion. Les résultats montrent que le terrain éducatif et la recherche pédagogique constituent un bloc unique. Cependant, l’élaboration des ponts entre la recherche pédagogique et les intervenants de terrain est confrontée au degré de reconnaissance des activités réalisées. En plus, l’absence explicite des fonctions de recherches parmi les missions attribuées aux écoles rend la mobilisation des acteurs sur le terrain très délicate.
Student perceptions of quality education in the faculty of engineering at Sana’a University
Authors: Barakat Tarek A. H. , Algorafi M. A.
Published: May 2022

There is a growing interest in improving the quality of higher education in Yemen. This is evident from the adoption of curriculum reviews by various universities, conferences centring around the quality of education, as well as the various institutions focusing on the quality of education. The drive has focused mainly on the perspective of the teaching profession. Little research has focused on the perspective of the students. This is viewed by the authors as a missing link since the students are the beneficiaries of the education they receive. Thereby, it is viewed as a fundamental perspective which should be incorporated in the overall drive for enhancing the quality of higher education in Yemen.

Listeria monocytogenes is an important pathogenic bacteria found in soil or water being the causative agent of listeriosis, a severe foodborne disease during pregnancy. The outcome can lead up to miscarriage, stillbirth, preterm birth and congenital neonatal infections, under occult or overt illness of the mother. We performed a literature review in the medical database PubMed, searching relevant information regarding listeriosis during pregnancy and neonatal outcome. Higher incidences were observed in ethnic minorities, as a reflection of specific dietary habits and where surveillance is not thoroughly implemented. Also, the infection was most commonly seen during the second or third trimester of pregnancy, with maternal presentation under the form of flu-like or pyelonephritis symptoms, or even asymptomatic. Regarding the neonatal infection, there are two types described according to the way of acquiring the bacteria. The obstetric outcome ranges from premature delivery to miscarriage and stillbirth. Treatment of choice is a combination of ampicillin and aminoglycoside. Despite the advances in the field of infectious diseases, challenges remain to completely understand the mechanism of placental invasion of Listeria monocytogenes and the severe consequences on fetal development.

Syphilis is a disease caused by Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum (T. pallidum) through sexual contact or vertical transmission during pregnancy. It is responsible for several hundred thousand stillbirths and neonatal deaths every year worldwide. Prenatal screening for syphilis is critical in order to detect syphilis infection and to prevent congenital syphilis. There are two types of antibodies, treponemal and non-treponemal and two algorithms available for diagnosis. Treatment should be administered according to the stage of syphilis and the antibiotic of choice for pregnant women with syphilis is penicillin G (benzathine penicillin). Non-treponemal antibodies are used for follow-up. There is no vaccination for syphilis that protects both the mother and the fetus. Reducing the incidence of congenital syphilis requires coordinated action involving public health authorities and medical care units.

Frequently, enteroviral infection with Coxsackie virus B (CV-B) goes unnoticed, without or only with mild symptoms. The infection is well known for the gastro-intestinal transmission, but recently, the severe forms of neonate’s infection, suggested that vertical transmission should not be neglected and moreover the fetal consequences should be studied. This review relates the most important findings regarding infection with CV-B during pregnancy, most of the information being based on murine studies. It seems that CV-B infection is associated with high rate of abortion and could also impair fertility. Regarding long term effects, CV-B might cause autoimmune diseases, congenital heart defects and neurologic disorders. Severe acute disease in new-born is generally acquired from a symptomatic mother that develop a febrile illness during the last week of pregnancy.

Since it was first associated with microcephaly and other central nervous system abnormalities, Zika virus infection emerged as a global health issue and discouraged pregnant women from traveling to areas affected by the Zika virus. Zika virus can be transmitted from mother to fetus during pregnancy, and can cause microcephaly, and other congenital malformations, known as congenital Zika syndrome. Microcephaly is determined by loss of brain tissue and abnormal brain development, and the outcome in children may vary, depending on the extent of the damage. Congenital Zika syndrome includes a broad spectrum of malformations, like limb contractions, increased muscle tone, eye abnormalities and hearing impairment. The purpose of this study is to synthesize available information about Zika virus and its impact on pregnancy and fetal development.
