Smartphone-Based Localization for Passengers Commuting in Traffic Hubs
Authors: Jurado Romero Francisco , Munoz Diaz Estefania , Bousdar Ahmed Dina
Published: September 2022

Passengers commute between different modes of transportation in traffic hubs, and passenger localization is a key component for the effective functioning of these spaces. The smartphone-based localization system presented in this work is based on the 3D step and heading approach, which is adapted depending on the position of the smartphone, i.e., held in the hand or in the front pocket of the trousers. We use the accelerometer, gyroscope and barometer embedded in the smartphone to detect the steps and the direction of movement of the passenger. To correct the accumulated error, we detect landmarks, particularly staircases and elevators. To test our localization algorithm, we have recorded real-world mobility data in a test station in Munich city center where we have ground truth points. We achieve a 3D position accuracy of 12 m for a smartphone held in the hand and 10 m when the phone is placed in the front pocket of the trousers.
2D Transformations of Energy Signals for Energy Disaggregation
Authors: Schirmer Pascal A. , Mporas Iosif
Published: September 2022

The aim of Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring is to estimate the energy consumption of individual electrical appliances by disaggregating the overall power consumption that has been sampled from a smart meter at a house or commercial/industrial building. Last decade’s developments in deep learning and the utilization of Convolutional Neural Networks have improved disaggregation accuracy significantly, especially when utilizing two-dimensional signal representations. However, converting time series’ to two-dimensional representations is still an open challenge, and it is not clear how it influences the performance of the energy disaggregation. Therefore, in this article, six different two-dimensional representation techniques are compared in terms of performance, runtime, influence on sampling frequency, and robustness towards Gaussian white noise. The evaluation results show an advantage of two-dimensional imaging techniques over univariate and multivariate features. In detail, the evaluation results show that: first, the active and reactive power-based signatures double Fourier based signatures, as well as outperforming most of the other approaches for low levels of noise. Second, while current and voltage signatures are outperformed at low levels of noise, they perform best under high noise conditions and show the smallest decrease in performance with increasing noise levels. Third, the effect of the sampling frequency on the energy disaggregation performance for time series imaging is most prominent up to 1.2 kHz, while, above 1.2 kHz, no significant improvements in terms of performance could be observed.

Published: September 2022

Aiming at the common problems, such as noise pollution, low contrast, and color distortion in underwater images, and the characteristics of holothurian recognition, such as morphological ambiguity, high similarity with the background, and coexistence of special ecological scenes, this paper proposes an underwater holothurian target-detection algorithm (FA-CenterNet), based on improved CenterNet and scene feature fusion. First, to reduce the model’s occupancy of embedded device resources, we use EfficientNet-B3 as the backbone network to reduce the model’s Params and FLOPs. At the same time, EfficientNet-B3 increases the depth and width of the model, which improves the accuracy of the model. Then, we design an effective FPT (feature pyramid transformer) combination module to fully focus and mine the information on holothurian ecological scenarios of different scales and spaces (e.g., holothurian spines, reefs, and waterweeds are often present in the same scenario as holothurians). The co-existing scene information can be used as auxiliary features to detect holothurians, which can improve the detection ability of fuzzy and small-sized holothurians. Finally, we add the AFF module to realize the deep fusion of the shallow-detail and high-level semantic features of holothurians. The results show that the method presented in this paper yields better results on the 2020 CURPC underwater target-detection image dataset with an AP50 of 83.43%, Params of 15.90 M, and FLOPs of 25.12 G compared to other methods. In the underwater holothurian-detection task, this method improves the accuracy of detecting holothurians with fuzzy features, a small size, and dense scene. It also achieves a good balance between detection accuracy, Params, and FLOPs, and is suitable for underwater holothurian detection in most situations.
Facing Conspiracies: Biden’s Counter-Speech to Trumpist Messages in the Framework of the 2020 US Elections
Authors: Pérez-Curiel Concha , Rivas-de-Roca Rubén , Domínguez-García Ricardo
Published: September 2022

The climate of division and polarization in the US politics is increasing, going beyond the time in the office of a specific leader. Several political or technological challenges have ended up eroding this trust, making social cohesion difficult. In this context, this research examines the communication strategies of the elected president Biden after the 2020 elections, shedding light on how his legitimacy was built. All the messages that the Democrat published on his personal Twitter account (@JoeBiden) were collected, from the day after the presidential elections (4 November 2020) until his inauguration as president of the United States (20 January 2021). Using a content analysis method on issue/game frame and dissemination of the messages (n = 379), and an analysis of the 100 first keywords, results showed a plan of the Democratic candidate to reinforce the role of public institutions but without interaction with the polarized electorate. In this sense, the strategies of the president-elect related to the promotion of political action, the call for unity, and the fight against the pandemic stood out. The frequent use of words with a positive attitude reveals how Biden avoided confrontation with Donald Trump.
Legacies of British Imperialism in the Contemporary UK Asylum–Welfare Nexus
Authors: Humphris Rachel
Published: September 2022

This article traces the imperial roots of the contemporary asylum–welfare nexus. It explores how English colonial governance exported Poor Law legislation firstly to colonial America (USA) and secondly to British North America (Canada). It argues that these three countries are an Anglophone shared moral space of law and governance, revealing the common unresolved contradictions underpinning contemporary debates about who ‘deserves’ entry, under what conditions, and why. Historical perspectives unsettle assumptions about the primacy of national geopolitical borders and the exceptionalism of contemporary migration. This article uses historical sociology to trace why and how national sovereignty took primacy over municipalities in controlling the mobility of people and the concomitant moral underpinnings. It then draws on new empirical research in three pioneering ‘sanctuary cities’ to explore how cities contest the entwining of welfare and migration governance. However, the article explores how these initiatives often reproduce justifications based on ‘deservingness’ and ‘contribution’. Through tracing the common threads that led to these forms of governance, we can understand they are not self-evident. A historical perspective allows us to ask different questions and open realms of alternative possibilities.

Impact of Higher Education and Globalization on Sustainable Development in the New EU Member States
Authors: Sart Gamze
Published: September 2022

Sustainable development has been one of the critical issues on the world agenda since the 1970s given the depletion of natural resources, environmental degradation, inequalities, population growth, and urbanization. Therefore, uncovering the factors underlying sustainable development matters for the design of optimal policies. This study investigates the influence of higher education and globalization on sustainable development in the new EU members for the 2000–2019 duration with a panel data approach in view of the research gap in the empirical literature. The consequences of the analyses point out that higher education and globalization have significant influences on sustainable development in the short and long terms. However, the long-term influence of globalization over sustainable development is found to be relatively higher than the influence of higher education on sustainable development.
End-User Stakeholder Engagement in Refurbishment Design in Higher Education

Published: September 2022

The refurbishment of building facilities needs to incorporate end-user engagement to ensure refurbished building facilities outcomes that include user-responsive learning spaces and satisfy users’ learning needs. However, existing refurbishment design process frameworks neglect to show the engagement process. A new framework for engaging end users in the refurbishment design of building facilities in higher education is presented. A qualitative research methodology was employed to obtain and analyse interview data from twenty-one design team stakeholders involved in two cases of refurbished building facilities in higher education institutions in Australia and New Zealand. The findings revealed four core themes which indicate the context and phases in the refurbishment design process where end-user engagement should be taken seriously. They are the higher education context, early design, user engagement in the design process and post-design phases. In addition, the findings revealed six specific strategies for end-user engagement in the refurbishment design of building facilities in higher education institutions. They are identifying stakeholder value systems, capturing end-user needs, communicating and integrating. Others are the setting of engagement boundaries and surveying of end users. This study modified the project heartbeat originally developed by Stanford University in 2010 for the refurbishment design process in a higher education context. The new framework bridges the gaps in the current literature between stakeholder theory and refurbishment design, and, by incorporating the refurbishment design processes, the framework can be employed in wider education and other project contexts to facilitate the balanced involvement of end users.
Maintenance and Optimization of Ecological Space in Natural Resource-Advantaged Cities: A Case Study in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province
Authors: Liu Yan , Ding Meichen
Published: September 2022

Natural resources are the material basis of urban construction, as well as a crucial factor that determines the livability and employment opportunities of a given city. Under the traditional development model, cities rely on their natural resources to develop their regional economy. However, this is always accompanied by environmental impacts. Maintaining and optimizing the ecological environment of such cities during economic development is not only related to the sustainable development and transformation of resource-based cities, but also affects the overall status of sustainable urbanization and construction. This study takes Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province, as a typical case to analyze the characteristics and status of urban ecological space. We explored a positioning and optimization strategy based on the proper management of urban ecological space systems in the future. The morphological spatial pattern analysis method (MSPA) and the minimum cumulative resistance (MCR) model were used to identify the urban ecological sources and extract the potential ecological corridors between the ecological sources. Ecological corridors were constructed by quantitatively analyzing their importance with a gravity model. Our findings indicated that the ecological area and the construction land area in Zhangzhou present a significant opposition. We identified 18 important core areas and 21 important corridors, which are concentrated in the west and north of Zhangzhou. Based on these findings, our suggestion is to maintain the status quo of urban ecology, set up ecological rest spaces around important roads, and increase the number of green facilities in the city.
Risk Evaluation of Water Environmental Treatment PPP Projects Based on the Intuitionistic Fuzzy MULTIMOORA Improved FMEA Method
Authors: Li Huimin , Liang Mengxuan , Zhang Chengyi , Cao Yongchao
Published: September 2022

The water environment treatment public-private partnership (PPP) project has a long cooperation period, large investment scale, high technical requirements, and more complex risks, which are very important to identifying and preventing risks. This paper establishes a risk evaluation model for water environmental treatment PPP projects based on the intuitionistic fuzzy Multi-Objective Optimization on the basis of a Ratio Analysis plus the full Multiplicative form (MULTIMOORA) improved Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) method. Firstly, the risk indicators system of the water environmental treatment PPP project was constructed through the literature frequency statistics method and semi-structured interviews. Subsequently, the intuitionistic fuzzy FMEA method was used to assess the risk factors in terms of three aspects—occurrence(O), severity(S), and non-detectability(D)—and gather expert information, and the expert assessment method and deviation maximization model method were applied to assign the risk factors. Finally, Intuitionistic fuzzy Multi-Objective Optimization on the basis of a Ratio Analysis plus the full Multiplicative form (IF-MULTIMOORA) was applied to determine the risk indicator ranking and was combined with the water environmental treatment PPP project in Pingyu for example verification. The results show that the top five risk levels of PPP projects in Pingyu water environmental treatment are financing risk (changing financing conditions/high costs), market changes, government intervention and credit problems, imperfect legal and regulatory systems, and inflation. The risk assessment model proposed in this paper enables: (1) the evaluation of risk indicators from three perspectives, which is more accurate and comprehensive; (2) the introduction of intuitionistic fuzzy risk factor language variables to reasonably represent expert views; (3) the use of IF-MULTIMOORA for risk ranking to avoid the problem that RNP is the same and difficult to rank. This paper has important practical significance in promoting risk prevention and achieving the sustainable development of water environment treatment PPP projects.
Gap Transients Interacting with Circumstellar Medium
Authors: Cai Yongzhi , Reguitti Andrea , Valerin Giorgio , Wang Xiaofeng
Published: September 2022

In the last 20 years, modern wide-field surveys discovered a new class of peculiar transients, which lie in the luminosity gap between standard supernovae and classical novae. These transients are often called “intermediate luminosity optical transients” or “gap transients”. They are usually distinguished in subgroups based on their phenomenology, such as supernova impostors, intermediate luminosity red transients, and luminous red novae. In this review, we present a brief overview of their observational features and possible physical scenarios to date, in the attempt to understand their nature.
Peculiarities of the Heliospheric State and the Solar-Wind/Magnetosphere Coupling in the Era of Weakened Solar Activity

Published: September 2022

Based on the data of the solar wind (SW) measurements of the OMNI database for the period 1976–2019, we investigate the behavior of SW types, as well as plasma and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) parameters, for 21–24 solar cycles (SCs). Our analysis shows that with the beginning of the period of low solar activity (SC 23), the number of all types of disturbed events in the interplanetary medium decreased, but the proportion of magnetic storms initiated by CIR increased. In addition, a change in the nature of SW interaction with the magnetosphere could occur due to a decrease in the density, temperature, and IMF of solar wind.
Ecosystem Service Value Response to Different Irrigation and Drainage Practices in a Land Development Project in the Yellow River Delta
Authors: Chen Simeng , Jiang Guanghui
Published: September 2022

The potential for development of saline land is enormous; the concept has recently attracted great scientific attention regarding its use and development. It is especially crucial to consider the issue of ecological balance when carrying out large-scale land remediation in the Yellow River Delta region since the saline land there is rich in resources and is also typically an ecologically delicate area. In order to quantitatively estimate the value of ecosystem services under various irrigation and drainage modes, this paper uses an undeveloped land development project in the Yellow River Delta as an example, simulates five different irrigation and drainage modes, and combines the market value method and the calculation method of factor equivalents. A quantitative estimation of the ecosystem service value under different irrigation and drainage modes is carried out, exploring the impact of different irrigation and drainage modes on the ecosystem from the perspective of ecosystem service value. The findings revealed that while the “Pipeline irrigation + concealed pipe” irrigation and drainage model increased the area of cultivated land by 4.04 km2, the overall ecological value increased by only Renminbi (RMB) 6.707 × 106. It is clear that only an increase in the area of cultivated land will not increase the ecological value as a whole. Through comparison, it is found that the ecological value of ‘Pipeline irrigation + open ditch’ irrigation and drainage pattern increases the most, which is RMB 28.405 × 106. It can increase the area of cultivated land and protect the ecological benefits to a greater extent, which can better meet the requirements of the current comprehensive development. The study’s findings can serve as a foundation for the sustainable development of the area and the scientific selection of development in ecologically vulnerable coastal areas.
September 29 — World Heart Day
Authors:   SBHI RR Kerch City Children's Hospital, Rybachok O. A.
Published: September 2022

Today, cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of total mortality in the world. More than 17 million people die each year as a result of cardiovascular pathology. The question here is not only in the multiple factors that influence the cardiovascular system, leading to the development of diseases, but in the constant increase in the pace of life of modern people. Constant stress, malnutrition, bad habits, and hereditary pathology — this is just the tip of the iceberg. Cardiologists and cardiac and vascular surgeons are called upon to help people with cardiovascular pathology, and in 1999 the World Health Organization proposed to celebrate World Heart Day on September 29. The main goal of celebrating this date is to raise people’s awareness of the danger posed by the pandemic of cardiovascular diseases, initiate the provision of comprehensive preventive measures for coronary heart disease, raise people's awareness of the clinical symptoms of cerebral stroke in all population groups, as well as to teach the broad public how to recognize symptoms in time and provide assistance at the prehospital stage. Most cardiovascular diseases can be prevented through populationwide strategies by addressing risk factors such as smoking and alcohol abuse, unbalanced diet and associated obesity, hypodynamia and insufficient physical activity.

Studies were conducted to assess the morphophysiological indicators of sturgeon breeders in the conditions of the cage complex. It was found that a common feature for first–time mature beluga females raised in artificial conditions are relatively low values of eggs’ fertilization — 65,3±1,3%, with the number of eggs in 1 g — 46,0 pieces, in contrast to domesticated females where the indicators of eggs’ fertilization were higher by 27,1%. The yield of eggs from the body weight of domesticated beluga females was 2 times higher, unlike females raised on the principle of “from eggs to eggs”. It was noted that for beluga females raised in artificial conditions, the hemoglobin concentration values were 15,7% higher, in contrast to the indicators obtained from domesticated females. It was found that for beluga females raised in artificial conditions, the total protein indicators were 1,4 times higher. For domesticated Russian sturgeon females, there is a tendency for higher indicators of working fertility, for which significant differences were obtained (p < 0.05). In Russian sturgeon females raised in industrial conditions, hemoglobin concentration indicators were higher by 14,5%, unlike adapted females, as a result, a similar trend is observed as with beluga females, it was found that for more productive fish, hemoglobin is lower, but within the reference values. The cholesterol level in the blood of domesticated and industrially raised Russian sturgeon females was slightly higher than the physiological norm. According to the statistical processing of the data obtained, the best indicators of total protein and glucose were noted for females raised in artificial conditions, however, these indicators of domesticated females were not critically low and were within the reference values.

PRODUCTION OF CERAMIC WALL MATERIALS BASED ON MONTMORILLONITE CLAY AND "TAILINGS" OF POLYMETALLIC ORES ENRICHMENT
Authors:   Samara state University of Economics, ABDRAKHIMOV V.Z.
Published: September 2022

Studies have shown that it is not recommended to introduce thinning materials of more than 10-15% into clay masses with a number of 12-15. The introduction of more than 15% of thinners into ceramic masses (charge) reduces the plasticity of the charge with subsequent deterioration of molding properties, and less than 15% does not improve the drying properties of raw bricks (semi‒finished products). Taking into account the emerging problem associated with the reduction of clay materials with a plasticity number of more than 12-15, it is necessary to study and explore the possibilities of replacing such traditional clay materials with montmorillonite clays. Montmorillonite clays, added even in small quantities, significantly improve the molding properties of ceramic masses, in which non-plastic mineral components predominate. To obtain the wall material, montmorillonite clay was used as a clay binder, and "tails" of polymetallic ore enrichment were used as a thinner". To get a ceramic brick from montmorillonite clay without thinners prak.

Increasing the strength properties of wooden structures is an important task. Wood can have many defects associated with the natural structure (defects) or obtained during operation (rotting, shrinkage, etc.). To increase the strength of wood and, consequently, the bearing capacity of structures based on it, both traditional methods (reinforcement with metal, concrete or reinforced concrete) and currently promising methods of modification with polymer compositions, including those with nanostructured filler, are used. In this work, a study was carried out to determine the compressive strength of modified wood samples along the fibers. Four different resins and two fillers were considered - carbon nanotubes and carboxylated carbon nanotubes, which were added to the binder in different percentages (from 0 to 1.1%). As a modification, the technology of impregnating a low-viscosity polymer composition into the wood body was applied using pulsed overpressure according to the 10-5-10-5-10 min mode. Modified specimens were tested under short-term loads until failure. The results of testing on samples determined the possibility of increasing the strength and deformability of a wooden structure modified with a resin-based polymer composition with the addition of a nanostructured filler.

Published: September 2022

El-Jabal El-Akhdar region is the most vegetated area in Libya dominated by a Mediterranean evergreen maquis ; the juniper trees (Juniperus phoenicea L.) consist of about 70-80% of the vegetation cover. These trees suffer a wide die-off phenomenon for a few decades, which put extra pressure on the ecosystems, in addition to climate change and unsustainable management. Notably, this phenomenon in El-Jabal El-Akhdar region is associated with a dense growth of lichens. This study aimed to identify the lichens on the juniper trees and record some ecological notes. According to our results, a total of 15 taxa belonging to six families and eight genera were recognized on the

J. phoenicea trees. The main lichen life-forms were crustose, fruticose, and foliose. However, the densest growth was recorded for Ramalina maciformis (Delile) Bory and Tornabea scutellifera

(With.) J. R. Laundon., which appear in most of the infected areas. However, Lecanora

gr. subfusca (L.) Ach. has dense growth in only a few areas south El-Jabal El-Akhdar region. This needs further investigation to understand why they grow in such a way on the juniper in the study area. The present study provides baseline information for further progressions in understanding Libyan lichens’ species richness and community composition at local and regional scales.

THE PHENOMENON OF ALIENATION OF THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS IN THE EXPONENTS OF SOCIAL VIOLENCE
Authors: Grishin A.
Published: September 2022

The article analyzes the problems of methodological construction of the ontological and ontic framework of the phenomenon of existential terrorism in the context of possible changes in the subordination and institutional potential of modern Russian society. The agenda includes the state of affairs in the modern educational environment in the aspect of its dynamic transformation towards the digitalization of the educational process and the associated possible loss on the part of teachers and students of their own individuality. This question is explicated in the paradigmatic orientation of the Marxist approach in relation to the loss of a person's true self and in the paradigmatic orientation of the neo-Freudian approach in relation to the ability of a person to carry out collective cooperation in the professional sphere. Terminologically, the article is made possible in the conditions of dialectical identifications of Platonism and Hegelianism, while the question of the correlation of the level of existential freedom, the ontic orientation of fear and the extroversion of existential terrorization is explicated in the theoretical generalizations of J. Bataille, J. Deleuze and J. Baudrillard.

The rock art has particular position in anthropological and archaeological studies. Analysis of these motifs plays a significant role in understanding culture, beliefs, social relations and other aspects of daily life. Creation of petroglyphs has a long history in Iran and are widespread in most parts of the country. The area of study in this essay is Beyram plain which is located in Larestan city in the southern part of Fars province. During archaeological systematic survey in this area, some petroglyphs with various animal motifs were detected and recorded, that can be considered as a part of art and memorials of residents in this settlements. The relative chronology of these motifs is based on analogy and comparative studies with obtained samples from adjacent areas. This research has been performed through both field study and library method. It used the descriptive-analytical methods in order to present, describe, design and compare the newly discovered petroglyphs at Beyram plain. In order to have a detailed analysis of the motifs, ethnographic studies and talking with shepherds and natives were done. And based on these studies, a possible function will be suggested for these kinds of motifs.

Published: September 2022

The article focuses on the possibility of usage of Pre-listening and Pre-reading stages not only for traditional purposes of perception facilitation, but for development of students’ speaking skills. There have been presented typical exercises which fulfil the traditional aims of these stages together with the new aims. The topicality of the research lies in the attempt to shift the traditional aims of the Pre-reading and Prelistening stages to those which are aimed at student’s speaking for fluency skills. The authors claim that this practice might help design more student-centered lessons and balance the teacher and the student talking time during the lesson. All the practices described in the article are currently used during development of ESL/EFL lessons in Skyeng school which is one of the market leaders in the sphere of online English teaching. There have been justified the reasons why these practices are seen as preferred and important in the process of lesson development. The following research methods have been used: critical analysis of scientific sources and data; experimental studying (through the educational Vimbox platform in Skyeng); direct observation method. The outcomes of the research may be applied both in an online and traditional offline classroom environment to design student-centered ESL/EFL lessons.

Authors: Akhmad T. , Shchukina I.
Published: September 2022

The article is devoted to the problem of using modern English text blogs for educational purposes to improve language skills of high school students. Being a special communicative genre within the framework of Internet discourse, a blog attracts modern high school students who spend much time communicating online, so it seems relevant to refer to the use of text blogs in English language teaching to enhance students’ foreign language skills. The classroom research, aimed to be described in the article, has been conducted in order to identify how the use of the Internet blogs influences the development of students’ reading skills in English. The methods used include context analysis of modern authentic Internet text blogs, observation, tests, experimental studying, etc. The results prove different educational possibilities of modern English text blogs. Various blog types, their educational functions and typical linguistic features of a blog, grammatical and lexical ones, are demonstrated in detail as well. It is stated that text blogs not only develop different reading skills and strategies, but also help students to extend their vocabulary and to prepare for exams in English. Students become participants of a real foreign language communication in a virtual communicative environment created with the help of blogs.
A CONSTRUCT OF INTERCULTURAL COMPETENCE FOR YOUNG LEARNERS
Authors: Kravchenko N.
Published: September 2022

The paper tackles the issue of forming a basis of intercultural competence for young learners. Considering the fact that we live in the globalized world and in the era of communication technologies this issue is becoming more and more acute. It is getting incredibly easy to explore other nations and cultures either by travelling or by using social media. This fact has greatly influenced foreign language teaching. The goals of this paper are to develop the theoretical construct of intercultural competence for young learners, to analyze the current English textbooks – both Russian and authentic ones – on the matter of knowledge, skills ,and abilities that are represented and formed in them, and to compare the theoretical and practical results of the research: What is lacking? What can be added? As a research method, a theoretical analysis of the academic literature is used. Analyzing the educational documents, the theory of socio-cultural competence developed by Doctor Victoria Safonova and M. Byram’s theory of intercultural communication, I found out that it needs to be specified for young learners. As a result, the construct of intercultural competence for young learners is developed. The construct includes a set of knowledge, skills, acquired practices, abilities and attitudes. Furthermore, this construct might be useful for creating a set of tasks for developing young learners’ intercultural competence. Second, the current English textbooks, both Russian and English ones, were analyzed according to the knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes represented in them. Then the author of the paper compared the practical construct from the English textbooks with the theoretical one by searching for the areas where intercultural competence might be developed more fully. As one of the possibilities to teach intercultural communication to young learners the author suggests organizing cultural – exchange between Russian and English-speaking students trough project work. Such work will allow students to deepen their intercultural knowledge and practice their cultural observation by comparing different cultures.

ضوابط الرقابة على تركز الشركات
Authors: عامر احمد , محمد أكرم
Published: September 2022

يتمثل الهدف الأساسي من الرقابة علىٰ تركز الشركات في منع آثارها المحتملة غير التنافسية الضارة بالهيكل التنافسي للسوق المعنية، وذلك لحماية حرية المنافسة فيها.

وفي إطار ذلك لا بد من التحقق من أن تلك العمليات ليس من شأنها إعاقة المنافسة الفعّالة أو الحد منها بشكل كبير علىٰ نحو يترتب عليه التأثير علىٰ السوق المعنية بجعلها أقل قدرة علىٰ المنافسة مما كانت عليه، أي ضرورة التنبوء بكافة الآثار المحتملة التي ستترتب علىٰ إتمام تلك العمليات، ولتحقيق الهدف السابق وهو إحكام الرقابة علىٰ تركز الشركات والكشف عن آثاره المقيدة المحتملة، يتعين وجود معايير تُمكّن السلطات المنوط بها حماية المنافسة ومنع الممارسات الإحتكارية من تقييم تلك الآثار وتحديد جوانبها الإيجابية والسلبية بدقة.

ويسلط هذا البحث الضوء علىٰ معايير الرقابة علىٰ تركز الشركات، من خلال دراسة القانون الأمريكي والأوربي ومقارنتهما بالقانون العراقي.
السلطة المختصة بتنظيم اقامة الاجنبي في القانون المقارن والعراقي
Authors: نجم وطبان , محمد رشا
Published: September 2022

إن سلطة الدولة في تنظيم دخول واقامة الاجانب اليها تتسم بقدر كبير من الحرية, ولا يحدها الا قواعد القانون الدولي التي تفرض على الدول احترام الحد الادنى المتعارف عليه في معاملة الاجانب, وصولا الى الحماية المثلى لحقوق الانسان أيا ما كان المجتمع الذي يعيش فيه, دون النظر الى جنسيته او موطنه, ومهما يكن من امر فإن الاجنبي قد اصبح حاليا من المخاطبين بأحكام قانون الدولة التي يقيم فيها, ويتمتع بالحقوق التي يكفلها له كيانه الانساني, دون النظر الى موطنه وجنسيته, وبعبارة اخرى فقد اعترف له بالشخصية القانونية, والتي لا تعد مجرد تفضل او تسامح من الدولة, وانما هي حق يستمده من القانون الدولي الذي يكفل للأجنبي حدا ادنى من الحقوق, التي يتمتع بها في مواجهة الدولة التي يقيم على ارضها.
طبيعة الدفع بعدم الاختصاص في القضاء الإداري المقارن والعراقي
Authors: رزاق ازهار , محمد رشا
Published: September 2022

إن الدفع بعدم الاختصاص يعد أهم الدفوع الشكلية في القضاء الإداري فهو إنكار لسلطة المحكمة في نظر الدعوى لخروجها عن حدود الاختصاص الذي قرره القانون لها ، فإذا أصدرت تلك المحكمة قراراً في الدفع بعدم الاختصاص الموجه لها  فالأمر لا يخرج عن أحد قرارين ، فهي أما أن تقرر إنها مختصة بنظر الدعوى فترد الدفع وتمضي بنظر الموضوع ، أو أن تقضي بقبول الدفع بعدم الاختصاص المثار من قبل الخصوم ، أو من تلقاء نفسها إذا تعلق الأمر بالنظام العام ، ويتوجب عليها هنا إحالة الدعوى إلى المحكمة المختصة وهو إجراء يقترن بقرار المحكمة بعدم اختصاصها بنظر الدعوى ، وحيث يقسم الاختصاص بين الجهات القضائية والمحاكم إلى ثلاثة انواع وهي الاختصاص الوظيفي  والنوعي والمكاني .

صاحب ظهور الحاسب الآلي والتوسع في استخدام شبكة الإنترنت في مجالات الحياة المختلفة ظهور بعض الآثار السلبية والمخاطر المترتبة على هذا التوسع، إذ كلما زاد الاعتماد على هذه التقنيات في التنمية، كلما زادت معه المخاطر الخاصة بحماية المعلومات، ومع تزايد الاعتماد العالمي على تكنولوجيا المعلومات والاتصالات, سيما فيما يتعلق الجانب الحكومي والمنشآت العامة، فقد تزايد أيضاً تعرض الدول للهجمات عن طريق الفضاء السيبراني، إذ أصبح هذا الفضاء عرضة للانتهاكات من قبل مخترقي الشبكات سواء كانوا دولا أو هيئات او افراد، ومن هنا بات من الضروري البحث في مدى مشروعية استخدام هذا النوع من الهجمات، سيما اثناء وقوع نزاع مسلح بين دولتين.
مدى نجاعة التنظيم الدستوري لحرية العراقي في اختيار احواله الشخصية في الدستور العراقي
Authors: علي مثنى , عادل مصدق
Published: September 2022

موضوع الحرية بشكل عام يعد من الموضوعات المهمة لدى المشرع الدستوري فلذا حرص كل الحرص ان ينص عليه في مقدمة ومحتوى نصوصه وذلك لما عان المجتمع من الويلات  والظلم والاستبداد من قبل الحكام و المحكومين جعلت الحرية تحت رحمة إفتاتهم ، فقد نصت الإعلانات العالمية و العربية على ضرورة إعطاء الحريات العامة بدون تمييز عرقي او قومي بل للإنسانية جمعاء وقد رتب اثارا على من تخلف عن الاتفاقيات تشجيعا منه لحث المشرعين الوطنين من النص على الحريات العامة في دساتيرهم ومنها حريتنا المنشودة هنا حرية العراقي فقد نصت الدساتير محل دراستنا عليها بشكل واضح وتباينت الأخرى بين الإحالة بصيغ غامضة وبين الإحالة الى جهة دينية لربطها بها ، فقد نص المشرع الدستوري اللبناني وفي المادة 9 على حرية الأحوال الشخصية بشكل واضح وارفده المشرع الفرعي الذي لم يتجاوزه بأفراد قوانين متعددة لكل اللبنانيين وللشرائح كافة ليختاروا بحسب  انتماءاتهم الدينية والروحية احوالهم الشخصية من زواج وطلاق وقيمومة وارث وغيرها من الأمور الداخلة فيها ، اما المشرع المصري الدستوري فقد أحال موضوعة الأحوال الشخصية وبحسب دستور 2014 امر تنظيمها الى الازهر الشريف كون المشرع المصري ربط حرية الأحوال الشخصية بالدين والمسؤول عن الشؤون الدينية كافة هو الازهر الشريف بتصريح الدستور ، اما المشرع العراقي فقد تباينت نصوصه في الزمن القديم في دستوره عام 1925 بنصه بشكل واضح وصريح على مبدا حرية الأحوال الشخصية وهي تعتبر اللبنة الأولى لانبثاقها في العرف الدستوري العراقي وقد اختفت هذه الحرية في ظل الدساتير التالية له بل تعسفت هذه الحرية بيد سلطة دكتاتورية جمعت بين السلطات الثلاث ، والى ان جاء التغيير في عام 2003 فقد تنفست حريتنا المنشودة بواسطة قرار مجلس الحكم على الغاء قانون الأحوال الشخصية والعمل وفق المذاهب الا انه لم يره النور لاعتراضه من قبل ( بريمر ) ونقض ، وبعد بسوغ دستور 2005 الدائم بانت حرية الأحوال الشخصية بحلتها الجديدة من خلال النص الدستوري للمادة 41 فقد أعطت للعراقيين حرية اختيار احوالهم الشخصية بحسب الديانة والمذهب والاختيار الا انه أحال موضوعة تنظيمها الى القانون و القانون الى الان لم ينظر في امر تنظيمها مما جعل منها حبر على ورق و انعكس سلبا على وحدة النسيج العراقي مما اضطر الافراد الى عدم مراجعة محاكم الأحوال الشخصية بسبب مخالفة القانون لانتمائهم والشواهد كثيرة سقناها في محل البحث عن الاثار الوخيمة والمدمرة للعوائل بسبب سكوت القانون تارة وتارة أخرى بسبب عدم تنظيم أحوال العراقيين الشخصية بما ينسجم مع تطلعاتهم وانتماءاتهم الدينية

لكن النص وحده غير كاف ما لم يحاط بجزاء قانوني تتحرك المحكمة الاتحادية العليا من اجل حماية الحقوق و الحريات العامة فلذا احيطت بضمانات عامة وخاصة لحماية حرية الأحوال الشخصية من الإفتات عليها .
OS REFLEXOS DA REVOGAÇÃO DA LEI 12.318/2010 QUE VERSA SOBRE A ALIENAÇÃO PARENTAL NO ORDENAMENTO JURÍDICO BRASILEIRO
Authors: Ribeiro da Sensão Kesia , Lima Costa e Silva Pinto Luciane
Published: September 2022

After almost ten years of validity, Law 12.318/2010 (Parental Alienation Law) has been supporting several criticisms, being the target of bills aimed at its repeal, on the grounds that the alienation law opens the way for parents who practice abuse against their own children can useit as a means of defense, where after the mother's complaint against the parent about the practice of sexual abuse, he argues that the mother is practicing parental alienation in relation to him. That is, the arguments aimed at the total repeal of the law are based on the misuse of it,and that it started to serve for other purposes. In view of this, the judiciary became more cautious about the recognition of parental alienation by one of those responsible for it, requiring unequivocal proof of alienating acts. Currently mentioned law divides opinions, with both supporters and opponents of the punishment of parental alienation. In view of this divergence, bills were proposed that seek to repeal the Parental Alienation Law, therefore, it has been little applied today, and has numerous obstacles to its recognition.
