Ghana's Legal Framework for the Constitutional and Statutory Application of Arbitration
Authors: Whitfield Hassan Francis
Published: December 2023

The legal framework in Ghana comprises a range of legislations that establish the fundamental principle of addressing specific concerns through arbitration. The compulsory nature of this arbitration system significantly diverges from the consent-based arbitration framework. This Article provides an analysis of the legislative framework that governs statutory arbitration in Ghana and argues that it is crucial to thoroughly comprehend statutory arbitration as a mechanism within administrative law. Unlike contractual arbitration, which relies on the parties' consent, statutory arbitration receives its authority from legislation. The present study examines the historical origins of statutory arbitration, create an extensive inventory of legislation with provisions for statutory arbitration, and assess the underlying rationales for the adoption of statutory arbitration. The study further examines the issue of consent in statutory arbitration, investigates the procedural aspects of statutory arbitration, and assesses the legitimacy of this specific form of arbitration. The article argues that the notion of statutory arbitration and the provisions found within specific legislations that establish statutory arbitration do not infringe upon constitutional norms. The study concludes that considering the solid legal foundation upon which statutory arbitration is based, the Ghanaian government should contemplate expanding the areas where statutory arbitration can be utilized as a feasible alternative to litigation.
Aux racines de la pensée écologique, Erico Nicola (1907-2001)
Authors: Bertholet Auguste
Published: December 2023

Jamais recensé, rarement prononcé, son nom gravite autour d’organisations ou de penseurs indissociables de la défense de l’environnement, tels le Club de Rome, le WWF ou Denis de Rougemont. Erico Nicola a pourtant oeuvré toute sa vie pour prévenir les risques liés à la croissance économique, en contribuant à faire émerger la pensée écologique contemporaine, et ce jusqu’à la création d’une fondation dédiée à ces questions : Les Bois Chamblard, aujourd’hui administrée par l’École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne. Dès les années 1940, ses recherches en météorologie alertent le jeune ingénieur physicien qu’il est quant à l’impact de l’industrialisation galopante sur le climat et les ressources naturelles. Homme de réseaux, fortuné, fin médiateur, il n’aura alors de cesse de provoquer la réflexion et la prise de conscience des scientifiques et personnalités influentes de tous bords et de toutes nationalités en les impliquant dans son combat pour la préservation de la nature – la biosphère. Personnage de l’ombre, cet ancien agent du renseignement est entouré d’incertitudes, autant par son action, difficile à retracer, que par la rareté de ses écrits. Cet essai cherche donc à faire le point sur ce que l’on sait du « colonel Nicola », sa vie, sa pensée, son héritage. Il rassemble également le peu d’écrits de sa main, qui permettent d’entrer dans le fil de ses pensées et de sa logique, pugnace et parfois fantasque.
Morphological and Semantical Effects of Phonemes on Pashto Lexical Structures
Authors: Taib Alokozay , Solizay Mohammad Usman
Published: December 2023

Phonemes and segments are the key elements in the structure of Pashto words, playing an important role similar to other languages worldwide. Through the combination and arrangement of these segments, numerous morphemes and diverse words are generated. When assigning a vowel or consonant to the origin or base form of a word, it leads to the creation of new words and constructions that possess different forms, meanings, and belong to various grammatical categories. Structurally, at least one, two, three, or a maximum of four bound morphemes in the form of segments or phonemes could be added to the root or base morpheme, thus generating new lexemes and words. The addition of new phonemes and segments to the base or root form of a word alters its case, identification, quality, quantity, gender, number, tense, modification, meaning, and grammatical classification. Another important role of segments in the structure of lexemes is the syllabification of simple and complex words. The accumulation of each phoneme brings changes in the number of syllables within that word or phrase. Vowel segments primarily contribute to the syllabification of words. In conclusion, the hierarchical arrangement of segments generates new morphemes, while the combination of bound and free morphemes forms the basis for creating new simple, compound, and complex words in the Pashto language.

Authors: Grillo Heloisa Elias Neves , Garbuglio Daniele Cristina , Sarracini Karin Luciana Migliato
Published: December 2023

Frente ao cenário de pandemia do covid-19, o setor de atendimento odontológico sofreu inúmeras mudanças, dentre elas a redução da procura por cuidados bucais pela população, em especial os pacientes com necessidades especiais (PNE). Visto que o grupo PNE se encaixa dentro da população de risco ao covid-19 e que a consulta odontológica demanda íntimo contato com a principal via de transmissão do vírus (boca), o objetivo deste trabalho foi entender a percepção dos responsáveis pelos PNEs frente à necessidade de cuidados bucais durante esse cenário de risco, além de questionar se há confiança e sentimento de proteção por parte deles ao levar a pessoa assistida às consultas odontológicas. Por meio de um questionário autoaplicável e outro sociodemográfico, uniu-se os dados e respostas obtidos pelos responsáveis para compreender a visão geral do atendimento odontológico e da higiene bucal em domicílio diante do cenário pandêmico. Ao todo, foram 47 questionários respondidos por pais/responsáveis, nos quais 67,4% relataram não terem levado o filho ao dentista durante a pandemia, enquanto 32,6% relataram ter ido pelo menos 1x. Foi questionado se houve dificuldades ao agendar consultas odontológicas durante a pandemia, 23,9% relataram ter tido dificuldades, enquanto 76,1% não, além de a maioria (84,8%) também relatar que não houve receio ao levar seu filho às consultas. Os dados nos mostram que a saúde bucal foi a menor preocupação dos pais durante esse período de confinamento; entretanto, houve confiança dos pais pela busca de atendimento odontológico devido à biossegurança efetuada durante o atendimento. Por meio da pesquisa feita, conclui-se que, durante o período de confinamento devido à pandemia da COVID-19, a maior parte dos pacientes e pais/responsáveis de PNE optou por não procurar atendimento odontológico e aqueles que procuraram, encontraram dificuldade para agendar consultas. Contudo, os resultados mostraram que, através da percepção dos responsáveis, a saúde bucal desses pacientes não apresentou alterações significativas quando comparadas a fase pré-pandemia.

Uma das características do biocarvão sobre a microbiota do solo é fornecer habitat para microrganismos por meio da distribuição de poros no biocarvão, protegendo os microrganismos da predação, dessecação, além de fornecer carbono e nutrientes suprindo as necessidades energéticas. Assim, objetivou-se avaliar em longo prazo o efeito da aplicação de biocarvão de casca de eucalipto, produzidos sob duas temperaturas de pirólise, sobre os diferentes compartimentos do carbono orgânico e atributos biológicos do solo sob cultivo de eucalipto. As determinações experimentais consistiram nas análises de carbono orgânico total (COT) e suas frações oxidáveis (F1, F2, F3 e F4), carbono e nitrogênio da biomassa microbiana (C-BM, N-BC), quociente microbiano (qMIC) e análises enzimáticas (fosfatase ácida e β-glucosidase), aos 730 e 913 dias, nas profundidades de 0-10 e 10-30 cm. Os resultados experimentais mostraram que houve influência da adição do biocarvão no aumento do COT e F4 aos 913 dias, principalmente pelo biocarvão produzido a 600°C, em ambas profundidades. Aos 713 dias, a aplicação de doses crescentes de biocarvão obtido à temperatura de pirólise de 350°C promoveu redução dos valores de CBM e qMIC na camada superficial do solo (0-10 cm). Para a temperatura de pirólise de 600 °C, houve um decréscimo até a dose de 1 % e incremento a partir dessa dose. O teor de nitrogênio da biomassa microbiana (N-BM) aumentou na segunda época de avaliação (913 dias) em ambas as profundidades. De maneira geral, a atividade enzimática não foi influenciada pela temperatura de pirólise e época de avaliação.

It studied the phenomenon with reference to the Jordanian Civil Code, particularly in the instructions issued under the stem cell system, within the instructions for insurance of stored stem cells and its amendments of 2014.

 

Method: The descriptive analytical approach was used through extrapolating and analyzing the legal texts regulating the obligations of stem cell banks and the terms of the agreement related to contracts for storing and preserving stem cells, and deriving civil liability provisions accordingly.

 

Result: The Jordanian legislator did not define the contract for preserving and storing stem cells. It recognized the necessity of financial compensation for damage to stem cells. However, it did not address the obligation to compensate for material or moral damage if the bank breached its obligation to deliver stem cells for the purposes of treatment.

 

Conclusion: Stem cells are at the forefront of research in the medical fields, as stem cells have been proven to provide solutions to incurable diseases, such as cancer, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and other diseases.

Prognostic significance of mediastinal standardized uptake value on positron emission tomography/computed tomography in patients with left upper lobe non-small cell lung cancer: Is invasive staging of aortopulmonary window lymph nodes necessary?
Authors: Erdoğu Volkan , Çıtak Necati , Yıldız Nisa , Vedat Doğru Mustafa , Özbek Merve , Buğra Sezen Celal , Sönmezoğlu Yaşar , Saydam Özkan , Cansever Levent , Metin Muzaffer
Published: December 2023

Background: This study aims to investigate whether the invasive staging of aortopulmonary window lymph nodes could be omitted in the presence of a suspected isolated metastasis in the aortopulmonary window lymph node on positron emission tomography/computed tomography.

Methods: Between January 2010 and January 2016, a total of 67 patients (54 males, 13 females; mean age: 59.9±8.7 years; range, 44 to 76 years) with metastatic left upper lobe tumors to aortopulmonary window lymph nodes were retrospectively analyzed. According to positron emission tomography/computed tomography findings in clinical staging, the patients were classified as positive (+) (n=33) and negative (-) (n=34) groups.

Results: There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of sex distribution, lymph node diameter on computed tomography, maximum standardized uptake value of aortopulmonary window lymph nodes, and tumor diameter (p<0.001 for all). A trend toward significance was found to be in pT status, LN #6 metastases, and pathological stage between the two groups (p=0.067). The five-year overall survival rate for all patients was 42.4% and there was no significant difference between the groups (p=0.896). The maximum standardized uptake value of the aortopulmonary window lymph nodes was a poor prognostic factor for survival (area under the curve=0.533, 95% confidence interval: 0.407-0.675, p=0.648).

Conclusion: Invasive staging of aortopulmonary window lymph nodes can be omitted in patients with isolated suspected metastasis to aortopulmonary window lymph nodes in non-small cell lung cancer of the left upper lobe.

Published: December 2023

Background: This study aims to assess the complications in post-novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) thoracotomy patients and to evaluate the time interval between infection and surgery and the effect of vaccine timing and vaccine type in these patients.

Methods: Between May 2020 and January 2022, a total of 74 patients (34 males, 40 females; mean age: 54.5±13.7 years; range, 22 to 27 years) who had COVID-19 infection and underwent thoracic surgery were retrospectively analyzed. Data including demographic and clinical characteristics, the surgery type, length of intensive care unit and hospital stay, and postoperative complications were recorded. Complications were defined as respiratory, cardiac, thrombotic, and other complications. The time period between COVID-19 infection and surgery was noted. All patients were questioned regarding their vaccination status.

Results: Having a symptomatic COVID-19 infection did not significantly affect the development of postoperative complications and length of intensive care unit or hospital stay. Thoracic involvement was the main factor which affected the length of intensive care unit and hospital stay during COVID-19 infection (p=0.004 and p=0.003, respectively).

Conclusion: Our study results suggest that the length of hospital and intensive care unit stay is related to the time period between infection and surgery. The longer that the patient waits after COVID-19 infection, the less time that the patient stays in the hospital.

Published: December 2023

A falta de planejamento e a gestão ineficiente presente no cenário da construção civil nacional tem sido fator responsável pela baixa qualidade das construções, elevados prejuízos ambientais e socioeconômicos e atrasos em suas conclusões, não havendo garantia de qualidade. Neste contexto, a administração eficaz e eficiente de diversos recursos é fundamental para garantir que a obra cumpra os padrões estabelecidos de prazo, custo, qualidade e gerenciamento de riscos, resultando em uma construção bem-sucedida.  Diante disto, a utilização de ferramentas de planejamento se apresenta como uma alternativa para garantia da gestão de projetos de construção a partir de instrumentos que permitem a identificação de gargalos, antecipação de problemas e a tomada de decisões mais assertivas. Dessa forma este trabalho discute a importância da utilização de técnicas modernas de gerenciamento de recursos e processos na construção civil, como o planejamento e Lean Construction, no setor de obras de saneamento básico. Buscando analisar a produtividade e custos dos recursos, o presente trabalho realizou um estudo em uma obra linear de saneamento no estado do Tocantins. A partir da metodologia aplicada, espera-se alcançar, através da implantação dessas ferramentas de planejamento, a otimização da gestão de recursos e processos de maneira a garantir a maior produtividade e melhor custo benefício em obras de saneamento, tornando-as mais eficientes e com qualidade.

Published: December 2023

O trabalho traz em evidência questões essenciais no âmbito da educação, uma vez que aborda diretamente aspectos defendidos nas leis e propostas escolares de inúmeros estabelecimentos de ensino, como por exemplo, a utilização de novas práticas educativas em ambiente escolar ou fora dele, a dinamização das aulas e uma temática importante que tem norteado há alguns anos o discurso de muitos pesquisadores, que é a desejada integração entre escola e comunidade. Neste sentido, debruçou-se na análise de conceitos como território, ambientes formais, informais e não formais de aprendizagem, numa perspectiva em que utilizou-se espaços existentes na comunidade para aprofundamento de conteúdos que possibilitassem o conhecimento desta e que, num outro prisma, contribuísse diretamente para consolidação de novos saberes, a partir da imersão coletiva em ambientes não formais de aprendizagem, onde foram abordados temas como estrutura das paisagens, patrimônio geológico, geoconservação, sustentabilidade e outros. Temas atuais e importantes para a serem discutidos em espaços formais ou não formais de aprendizagem. Ademais, analisou-se ainda o papel do território na apreensão destes e de outros conhecimentos de grande relevância para a formação integral dos educandos.
THE CONTRIBUTION OF HOLOCAUST EDUCATION TO MORAL EDUCATION
Authors: Curtean Maria
Published: December 2023

The paper aims to highlight the contribution of Holocaust Education to students' moral education and character cultivation by teaching character virtue. The educational philosophy developed at Yad Vashem has brought a significant change in teaching the traumatic events of the Second World War by valuing the human. The changing perspective has led to a shift from teaching the event itself, to the personal and community narrative, full of meaning and significance. Students are encouraged to learn, understand, and empathize with the victims through 'journalist questions'. Exposing them to the moral dilemmas faced by those involved at the time contributes to both reconstructing the complex world of yesteryear and cultivating the character of the students. However, this is conditioned by personal and community values, culture and ethos, factors that influence teachers and students' attitudes towards Holocaust education, as recent research reveals.

Published: December 2023

Teaching Romanian as second language involves developing students’ abilities to communicate an oral or a writing message, beside their capacity to listen or to read and to efficiently decode the transmitted information. In the process of a new language acquisition an important role goes not only to the teacher who has to make a clever selection of the texts or of the listening material, all of them, preferable, based on authentic situations, but also to the students who should receive the information in a creative way in order to better understand it and to consolidate it for a long period of time.

Published: December 2023

Responsibility represents a moral value criterion equally claimed as an imperative for all human manifestations, whether individually or collectively, whether in stable life situations or in anomic life contexts. Frequently, responsibility is invoked as a desirable component, as an imperative of existence, which necessarily transforms it also into content of learning. The present study focuses on responsibility as a structural element of the actual school syllabus (OMEN no. 3418/ 2013 and OMEN no. 5003/ 2014), applied to the curricular areas, respectively to the subjects for the primary education in Romania (OMEN no. 3371/ 2013). The curricula were analyzed using the semantic software Tropes v8. 2 (developed by Pierre Molette and Agnès Landré), available also into Romanian; by extracting a series of references from the text and then by their statistical approach, the relationship between explicit and implicit in the evocation of responsibility was highlighted both at the level of the educational subjects and the curricular areas.

Published: December 2023

The didactic experience of teaching - learning Mathematics in the preparatory class (CP) and grades I - IV, even of the implementation of mathematical activities in kindergarten, reveals an important amount of notions, relationships and properties that belong to the programs, but are not always rigorously integrated and presented. Hence the need for notional clarification and ensuring rigor in the use of concepts and arguing / proving statements, properties, theorems and solving exercises or problems. The present paper can achieve a part of this desired. Thus, after a brief presentation of the notions of equivalence relation and partition of a set, the connection between an equivalence relation and a partition and some concrete examples, we will present a very interesting partition of the set N, of the non-zero natural numbers, partition generated by two irrational numbers, but also the equivalence relation generated by this partition. We will also exemplify such situations.
