Общественное право в воззрениях полицеистов
Authors: Трофимова Светлана Александровна
Published: January 2023

Исследованы  предпосылки становления, генезиса и эволюции учения об общественном праве в зарубежной и отечественной политико-правовой мысли. Существовавший в период абсолютизма в Западной Европе и самодержавия в России полицейский тип управления государством в XIX веке сменился децентрализацией власти. В связи с этим переосмыслению были подвержены взгляды на сущность общества, его значение и потенциал. В работе рассмотрены воззрения правоведов на роль общества во внутреннем управлении, анализируются положения теории общественного права, отмечаются ее положительные и отрицательные черты. Исследование проведено на основе трудов отечественных ученых дореволюционного периода, а также работ зарубежных полицеистов. Автор пришел к выводу, что теория общественного права была сформулирована в качестве учения, оппозиционного идеи полицейского государства, и была объективно обоснована в условиях кардинальных политико-правовых и социально-экономических перемен. Это учение имело весомое историко-правовое значение, поскольку стало первой попыткой обосновать с научных позиций право общества на самостоятельность и самоуправление.
Достоинство личности и права человека как традиционные российские духовно-нравственные ценности
Authors: Фоминская Марина Дмитриевна
Published: January 2023

В связи с подписанием Президентом Российской Федерации Указа «Об утверждении Основ государственной политики по сохранению и укреплению традиционных российских духовно-нравственных ценностей» в правовой науке возросла роль исследований таких понятий как достоинство личности и права человека. Несмотря на имеющиеся научные публикации по данной проблематике, практически отсутствуют исследования, рассматривающие достоинство личности и права человека как традиционные российские ценности, имеющие духовно-нравственное измерение. Цель данного исследования – показать в историко-правовой и духовно-культурной ретроспективе роль Русской Православной Церкви (РПЦ) в признании обществом и государством достоинства личности и прав человека традиционными духовно-нравственными ценностями. Обращение автора к трудам представителей отечественной светской правовой мысли XIX – первой половины XX в.в. доказывает значимость и влияние православной религиозно-правовой концепции достоинства личности и прав человека на развитие секулярного и постсекулярного российского правового пространства. В целом, опираясь на методологические традиции в области истории политических и правовых учений, истории государства и права, среди которых логико-структурный, историко-философский, аксиологический и текстологический анализ, удалось проанализировать специфику представлений о достоинстве личности и правах человека в отечественной православной и светской правовой мысли, а использование цивилизационного похода к праву позволило установить основные тенденции и направления дальнейшего развития исследуемых понятий в качестве векторных в формирования российской правовой доктрины достоинства личности и прав человека.
Этномедицина как социокультурный феномен
Authors: Бахтин Виктор Александрович
Published: January 2023

На основе анализа широкого круга источников выявлен повышенный интерес зарубежных исследователей к индустрии традиционной медицины, отмечается значительный рост в последние десятилетия рынка этномедицинских услуг. Всемирная организация здравоохранения выделила данную проблему Стратегией ВОЗ в области народной медицины 2014–2023 гг. Проведенные социологические измерения (фокус-групповые дискуссии, массовый опрос) также выявили интерес наших соотечественников к этномедицине. Однако этот феномен исследован в России недостаточно и в пространстве медицинских наук, и в поле социологической экспликациии. В связи с этим целью исследования является рассмотрение этномедицины как социокультурного фактора реализации лечебно-оздоровительных практик, ее соотношения с официальной медициной, обозначение конфликта ценностей этнокультуры и рыночной экономики в области медицины, представление на основе исследованного материала рекомендаций по принятию превентивных мер для предотвращения этих противоречий. Это определяет новизну исследования и актуализирует рассматриваемую тему работы в проецировании подходов, представленных в зарубежных источниках, на полиэтничное многообразие нашей страны.

Construction of Ireland in James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
Authors: Aayushi Sangharshee
Published: January 2023

Written with Ireland as the setting of the novel, The Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, brings forth different aspects of the power dynamics that characterised the twentieth century Ireland. It was the ‘age of the empire’ and the different European powers were busy colonising more and more territories. The status of Ireland as both the coloniser as well as the colonised, by the British, is what makes the case of Ireland unique whenever it comes to discussing the ideas of nationalism and colonialism. Joyce in his novel puts forward the unique Irish experience through the life of his protagonist, Stephen Dedalus, who finds himself enmeshed in the political conflicts of the day and struggles his way in his quest for artistic autonomy. Stephen’s uneasiness about the political controversies and his ambivalent stand regarding Irish political leaders can be seen as Joyce’s own rejection of Irish nationalism and his choice for artistic autonomy.

Aristotle’s Mimesis or Creative Imitation
Authors: Dr Snigdha Jha
Published: January 2023

The present paper explores in totality the Mimetic or Creative imitative power in creative writers and visual painters. Giving a befitting reply to his master, Plato condemned poets and painters on the grounds that they lack originality. They are mere imitators and their creation is thrice removed from truth and reality. Aristotle in his magnum opus, Poetics, starts with this mimesis thing and goes at length telling that Mimesis or Imitation is central to existence. We human beings are better developed than brute beasts primarily because we have the highest imitating power. Plato and Aristotle both take into consideration the poets. Plato criticizing him and Aristotle accolade him on grounds on mimetic arts. As it delves deeper into the idea it explores that besides imitation, it is instinctual in nature and the other instinct is for rhythm and harmony. Persons endowed with these two natural gifts ultimately give rise to poetry. Poetry after its birth diverged into two directions the graver spirits imitated the lives of nobler men and trivial ones the actions of meaner men. Thus was born tragedy and comedy.
A Critical Reading of Nabakanta Barua’s “Measurements”
Authors: Sanjeev Kumar Vishwakarma
Published: January 2023

‘Measurements’ is a poem written by an Assamese poet, Nabakanta Barua. He belongs to the new generation of poets in Assamese Literature. He writes in the modernist tradition of Hopkins (using sprung rhythm), W. B. Yeats (conflict between the romantic and the modern) and T. S. Eliot (material and spiritual hollowness). He received the Sahitya Akademi Award for Assamese Literature in 1975. The poem has a good deal of influence of T. S. Eliot. It reminds the beginning of ‘Prufrock’ and depicts the purposelessness, hollowness and faithlessness of modern existence. It bears the influence of the European decadent culture which reveals the inner crisis of the human soul through doubts, apprehensions, boredom and frustration. In this poem Nabakanta Barua talks about city life in which man has to go through an endless process of ‘measurements’ resulting into nothingness. The poem seems to begin with talking about the stitching of clothing in a materialistic sense but, in its deeper meanings, it gives philosophical and spiritual perspectives. Different kinds of metaphors have been used to clarify the situations of nothingness and barrenness.
Divided Home, Divided Identity: A Postcolonial Study of Alam’s Own House
Authors: David Das
Published: January 2023

One of the outcomes in Postcolonial era is the inherited multiple identities of individuals and their respective communities. Torn apart in the Partition, the domestic and social spaces of millions of people across the border got blurred and diluted. It is exemplified more evidently when it comes to religious identity, both Hindu and Muslim. Seen from this perspective, the looming tension and growing vulnerability of members of both religions in Post-Partition Dacca and Kolkata have always been trapped in divided home and divided identities. Alam’s Own House by Debyendu Palit is one such short story that quintessentially addresses the crisis of home and identity across two cities, Dacca and Kolkata that have been the worst affected in the Partition. Telling from third-person point-of-view, this short story vividly narrates the mental tensions of the lead characters through portrayal of interfaith love, communal tensions, residential crisis, and more evidently the gradual realization of cultural differences. Nationhood and belongingness in Postcolonial Indian subcontinent are entangled with the divided home and divided identity. Alam’s Own House faithfully reflects all these issues.

In to the research including five size of onion bulbs 30–80 mm and three scheme of plant density – 71; 95 and 143 th pl./ha were established that onion seed production, variety Haltsedon, substantially depends on bulbs size and plant density. Seed production per plant grow with in size bulb growing and decreases with plant density growth. In the same time the yield per ha growth with increasing plant density and bulb size. Were established that for every plant density should be used for planting the respective size of bulbs. So for the density 71 th pl./ha the recommended size of bulbs is 50–60 and 60–70 mm, for the density 95 th pl./ha the optimal size of the bulbs is 50–60 mm, and for the density of 143 th pl./ha should be used bulbs with the size 40–50 and 50–60 mm. Bulbs with the size bigger than 50–60 mm used for planting in to the high plant density scheme decrease substantially the efficiency of seed production due to the high planting material costs.

The monograph analyzes political development crises as components of the modernization crisis syndrome. The neo-institutional approach, which is the basis of the proposed research, made it possible to analyze the development of Ukraine during the years of independence through the prism of crisis phenomena, which have a systemic and permanent nature and, in their combination, convergence and interpenetration, slow down, and sometimes make impossible, the processes of democratization. Crises of political development, among which the authors analyze the crisis of identity, the crisis of legitimacy, the crisis of penetration, the crisis of distribution, and the crisis of participation in their interaction, as well as due to extremely contradictory external influences due to a specific geopolitical environment (between two large centers of power, which is also analyzed in the monograph), have effectively led to the trials and tribulations that the Ukrainian state is currently undergoing. The monograph is intended for social scientists, politicians, experts and anyone interested in the political development of Ukraine.

The microalgae were exposed to silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution and screened for their suitability for production of the nano-silver (nano-Ag). The HIV-1 gag p24 Elisa Assay was used to study the anti-HIV activity of biogenic silver nanoparticles from microalgae Nostoc sp., Lyngbya sp., and Phormidium sp. The antiviral activity of biogenic silver compounds can be explained by their ability to cross the lipophilic membranes and interact with proteins involved in apoptosis. The antiviral activity of silver ion assembled into the V3loop of HIV -GP120. CD4 cell with CXCR4 chemokine receptor binding with its ligand CXCL12 plays an important role in protecting the entry of HIV virus. The role of the extracellular loop from CXCR4 and its mechanism allowed for the binding of HIV glycoprotein. This active site of protein bind with target protein to form protein–protein-ligand interaction to carry out the signals to lead the various pathways such as CXCL12 or SDF-1 protein-mediated kinase, Ras-c-Raf-1-MEK1/2-ERK1/2 dependent pathway, and CD45 cell-mediated pathway. The sulfur-bearing residues located in the glycoprotein knobs would be attractive sites for nanoparticle interaction. Silver nanoparticles are blocked the protease activity of different HIV-1strains with overlooks their tropism. Modification in gp120 among HIV strains is the major determinant site of differing tropism among HIV strains.

Published: January 2023

Background: Vitamin A belongs to an array of retinoids, which have a pivotal part in the development of embryo and fetus and is important in themorphogenesis and cellular differentiation of developing liver. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) are known to regulate the formation of vasculature and organogenesis of liver. For the contribution of better enlightenment of the modulating effects of vitamin A on the developing liver we investigated the effect of vitamin A on the histology and immunohistochemical expression of VEGFR2 in the liver from the fetuses. Methods: For this purpose, eighteen pregnant albino mice were divided into three groups having six mice each. Group A served as control and was given 1ml of olive oil whereas group B and C were experimental groups and were given 0.6mg/kg and 1.8mg/kg of vitamin A diluted in 1ml of olive oil. Doses were given at 7th, 8th and 9th gestational days (GD). All animals were sacrificed at 18th GD and the livers from the fetuses were collected to observe the histological parameters such as inflammation, hepatic vacuolar degeneration, central vein diameter and hemorrhage in central veins along with immunohistochemical expression of VEGFR 2. Results: Results showed that vitamin A affected the histology of liver. Inflammation, hepatic vacuolar degeneration (HVD) and the central vein hemorrhages were increased significantly (p<0.001), while diameter of the central vein decreased (p<0.001) in group C as compared to group A and B. The immunohistochemical expression of VEGFR2 decreased in sinusoids of group C (p<0.001) as compared to group A and B. Conclusion: Thus, the maximum tolerated dose of vitamin A given to group C tends to affect the microarchitecture of the developing liver and expression of VEGFR2. Keywords: Vitamin A, Vascular endothelial growth factor, VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2,

Aim: To see the comparative effectiveness of Conventional physiotherapy with kinesio Taping and Conventional physiotherapy alone to reduce pain and increase Range of Motion (ROM) in patients with non-specific low back pain. Methodology: The study design was Randomized controlled trail. Non-probability Temporal method sampling technique was used. Sample size was 36. The data was collected from Department of Physiotherapy Mayo Hospital Lahore. Written informed contest was taken from each patients taking part in this prior to performing any examination. Patients with non-specific low back pain were divided randomly into two groups. In ‘group A’ Conventional physiotherapy with Kinesio Taping was applied while in ‘group B’ only conventional physiotherapy was applied. The patients were divided into two groups using a computer-generated list. Both groups will receive conventional therapy, which will remain same throughout the study. The conventional therapy will include back isometrics and hot pack for 15 minutes. Group A will receive conventional therapy and Kinesio Taping while group B will receive only conventional therapy. Treatment frequency will be thrice a week. The duration of treatment was be 2 weeks in both groups. Each patient's informed consent was obtained before Performa was filled out. The Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were both utilized for scoring. Results: Kinesio Taping with Traditional Physical Therapy technique is more effective in improving ROM and reducing disability as compared to only Traditional Physical Therapy technique. Patients in group A showed marked improvement as compared to group B. Conclusion: it was concluded that conventional physiotherapy with Kinesio Taping is more effective than Conventional physiotherapy alone for the treatment of low back pain. Conventional physiotherapy with Kinesio Taping not only decrease pain but also improves function and flexibility of spine.
