The role of executive characteristics in their evaluation of financial conditions of European SMEs
Authors: Ključnikov Aleksandr , Civelek Mehmet , Durda Lukáš , Fialová Vendula , Folvarčná Andrea
Published: June 2023

The majority of SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) have a lower amount of financial assets and earnings compared to their larger counterparts. Therefore, their probability of encountering financial troubles is greater. However, the obstacles they face and perceive might differ depending on their executives’ characteristics. In this regard, this research targets to indicate similarities or differences in the perception of financial conditions by companies’ executives who are of various gender, age, and educational status. Moreover, this paper analyzes SMEs from different countries. By doing so, this research also aims to examine international differences in executives’ characteristics and their perceptions of financial conditions. In line with those targets, the researchers create an internet-mediated questionnaire and direct it to the randomly selected respondents who are owners or executives of 1,156 Czech, Slovakian and Hungarian firms. The researchers also use independent samples T-test and ANOVA tests for analysis purposes. According to the results, while the educational status of executives does not play a determining role in the perceptions of financial issues in all research samples, the perceptions of financial conditions differ depending on Hungarian executives’ gender. Moreover, there are significant differences in the perceptions of older and younger Czech executives regarding the financial performance of their companies. Although some studies investigate firms’ or executives’ resource-based view characteristics, they are limited in investigating a single relationship and a research sample (firm characteristics and bankruptcy of a country’s SMEs, etc.). Since this paper sets and investigates differences in various executive-level characteristics and financial issues of different countries’ SMEs, it might draw prospective readers’ attentions, who might be firm executives, policymakers, financing institutions, and academicians. Moreover, comparing various samples from different countries’ SMEs in analyzed relationships is another crucial value addition that this research creates when filling the literature gap.

Published: June 2023

The article identifies and mathematically substantiates vectors of reforming the financial monitoring system based on the synergistic approach in the cross-country context by developing scenarios by selecting internal and external factors that stimulate money laundering. The key external and internal factors of the money laundering process intensification are indicated. Competitive advantages of the anti-money laundering processes, the achievement of which is possible in terms of key external and internal factors for activation of money laundering process are formed. The relationship between the key internal and external factors of money laundering intensification and competitive advantages by building a binary characteristic matrix is formed. The synergy effect made by the mutual influence of simultaneously acting internal and external factors – a quantitative feature of the further strategy of the financial monitoring system reforming in terms of cross-country analysis is calculated. An economic-mathematical model for evaluating and interpreting strategy for improving the financial monitoring system in terms of cross-country context based on integer optimization is developed. In the article, there is calculation of the number of competitive advantages received by each observed country, without considering the possible synergy effect of mutual influence of simultaneously acting internal and external factors on each other. Moreover, there is quantitative assessment of the synergy effect made by the emergence of additional competitive advantages due to a certain combination of simultaneous influence made by external and internal factors of the money laundering intensification. The “ideal” situation of the possibility of gaining all possible competitive advantages in reforming the financial monitoring system in terms of cross-country context by overcoming internal and external factors stimulating the money laundering is studied. The results of the cross-country analysis form a basis for the further formalization of the limits for quantitative evaluation of the developed strategies through a uniform distribution.
Understanding Facilitators and Barriers to Success: Framework for Developing Community Forestry Case Studies
Authors: Butler Megan , Jamkar Vishal , Current Dean
Published: June 2023

Due to the observed success of community-based management strategies, countries around the world have reformed forest policy to focus upon decentralization and community participation in forest management. Nonetheless, despite the commonly lauded benefits of communal forest management, not all community forest programs successfully achieve the dual goals of forest conservation and income generation. In an era when communal forest management is gaining global popularity, understanding factors that enable or constrain communities’ communal forests and community forest enterprises will help ensure their success. A significant amount of academic research has focused upon identifying and summarizing factors that facilitate or impede community-based resource management. Understanding these factors is an important first step for individuals interested in understanding community forestry operations. The goal of this article is to guide individuals interested in delving deeper into an existing community forestry case. This article provides a framework that can be used to develop community-forestry case studies and guide analysis. The framework highlights the interconnection between community resources, national-scale policy implementation, and markets and provides key factors to consider when analyzing the local context of community-based natural resource management cases.
Glucagon cell hyperplasia and neoplasia: a recently recognized endocrine receptor disease
Authors: Sipos Bence , Klöppel Günter
Published: June 2023

Glucagon cell hyperplasia and neoplasia (GCHN) is the name of an endocrine receptor disease, whose morphology was first described in 2006. Three years later, this rare disease was found to be to be caused by an inactivating mutation of the glucagon receptor (GCGR) gene. Functionally, the genetic defect mainly affects glucagon signaling in the liver with changes in the metabolism of glycogen, fatty acids and amino acids. Recent results of several studies in GCGR knockout mice suggested that elevated serum amino acid levels probably stimulate glucagon cell hyperplasia with subsequent transformation into glucagon cell neoplasia. This process leads over time to numerous small and some large pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors which are potentially malignant. Despite high glucagon serum levels, the patients develop no glucagonoma syndrome. In 2015, GCHN was identified as an autosomal recessive hereditary disorder.
Interleukin-6 promotes the dedifferentiation of papillary thyroid cancer cells

Published: June 2023

Radioiodine treatment is a fundamental therapy for patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Sodium/iodide symporter (NIS)-mediated iodine uptake is a prerequisite for the efficacy of radioiodine therapy. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pro-tumor cytokine, but its regulation of NIS expression in PTC has not been elucidated. In this study, we found that IL-6 enhanced the proliferation ability of PTC cells. Moreover, the negative association between IL-6 and NIS expression in thyroid cancer tissues was demonstrated. IL-6 downregulated thyroid-specific genes such as NIS, thyroid peroxidase, and thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor and thyroid-specific transcription factors including thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) and paired box protein-8 (PAX-8). The inhibitory effects of IL-6 on NIS expression were alleviated by mitogen-activated protein kinase and Janus kinase inhibitors. Depletion of c-Jun or STAT3 also rescued IL-6-induced NIS downregulation, with STAT3 depletion exerting a stronger effect. TTF-1 protein expression was also restored by depleting c-Jun or STAT3. STAT3 depletion, but not c-Jun depletion, alleviated the inhibitory effect of IL-6 on PAX-8 expression. Moreover, the downregulation of NIS by IL-6 was rescued by overexpressing TTF-1 and PAX-8. Tocilizumab, an IL-6 receptor blocker, did not have any cytostatic activity in PTC cells, and it also failed to induce redifferentiation in vitro. However, we found that the drug blocked the inhibitory effect of IL-6 on NIS expression. In summary, IL-6 inhibits NIS transcription in PTC cells by activating mitogen-activated protein kinase and Janus kinase signaling.
A Comparative Analysis of Mechanisms for Preventing Adolescent Suicide in China and Japan
Authors: Zhao Tangqi
Published: June 2023

China and Japan are both Asian countries that are geographically adjacent and share a common cultural heritage. Suicide is a significant public health concern in both countries. While Japan has established a relatively mature framework for suicide prevention, China lacks national suicide prevention mechanisms. This paper analyzes the disparity in adolescent suicide prevention between China and Japan so that China can learn from Japan’s experience in this area and develop effective, systematic mechanisms for the prevention and intervention of adolescent suicide.

The environmental situation of the planet is, as we all know, critical; attempts to solve this crisis have had partial and relative success. It is therefore necessary to rethink the current situation, in order to find the right solutions. Individuals in the Western world have suffered three tears that threaten our humanity itself: the tear of the self, of the social, and of course, the environmental. If we find a way to heal those tears, we may have a chance of survival as a species. This essay studies these problems.
On Order Policies for a Perishable Product in Retail
Authors: Hendrix Eligius M.T. , Pauls-Worm Karin G.J. , de Jong Maartje V.
Published: June 2023

We study an inventory control problem of a perishable product with a fixed short shelf life in Dutch retail practice. The demand is non-stationary during the week but stationary over the weeks, with mixed LIFO and FIFO withdrawal. The supermarket uses a service level requirement. A difficulty is that the age-distribution of products in stock is not always known. Hence, the challenge is to derive practical and efficient order policies that deal with situations where this information is either available or lacking. We present the optimal policy in case the age distribution is known, and compare it with benchmarks from literature. Three heuristics have been developed that do not require product age information, to align with the situation in practice. Subsequently, the performance of the heuristics is evaluated using demand patterns from practice. It appears that the so-called STIP heuristic (S for Total estimated Inventory of Perishables) provides the lowest cost and waste levels.

Authors: Tirumalai Prem Saran , Parihar Himani , Pathak Rimjhim
Published: June 2023

Staphylococcus aureus, as a foodborne pathogen causing significant harm worldwide, was studied to assess the effectiveness of probiotic strains Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Bifidobacterium bifidum individually and collectively (as consortia) in controlling its growth. The growth patterns of S. aureus were observed when co-cultured with each probiotic strain and a consortium of all three strains over 72 hours. Additionally, the antimicrobial activity of probiotic cell-free supernatants (CFS) against S. aureus was tested using the agar well diffusion method. This study underscores the potential of L. plantarum and a consortium of L. casei, L. plantarum, and B. bifidum in controlling S. aureus growth.

Authors: Ramos Freile Emilia Isabel , Rodriguez Fariño Dietmar Fernando
Published: June 2023

Severe head trauma refers to an injury to the cranial,encephalic and/or meningeal structures resulting in a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 8 points or less. According to the World Health Organization, this condition causes over 5 million deaths per year. In Ecuador, in 2015, the National Institute of Statistics and Census recorded 5,768 deaths caused by this condition. The management of this condition can be either clinical or surgical depending on the patient's needs. Currently, there is controversy surrounding the therapeutic methods used to manage it, and it has been the subject of study for several years. This research presents a bibliographic review with a descriptive approach, providing useful concepts in this area of constant evolution, addressing fundamental topics such as its causes, classifications, and therapeutics. The documentation used emphasizes the use of standardized strategies and staggered management of intensive treatment for neurocritical patients, emphasizing the active implementation depending on the clinical and imaging findings. This approach has been shown to reduce mortality and improve the clinical outcome of patients.

Effect of physical and thermal pretreatments on enzymatic activity in the production of microporous cassava starch
Authors: Figueroa-Flórez Jorge Antonio , Arroyo Dagobeth Eduardo David , Cadena-Chamorro Edith , Rodríguez-Sandoval Eduardo , Salcedo-Mendoza Jairo Guadalupe , Ciro-Velásquez Héctor José
Published: June 2023

Cassava starch is modified to increase porosity and lacerations that are limited when only enzymatic treatments are used. This study proposes to improve enzymatic activity of α-amylase and amyloglucosidase on the polymer chains of cassava starch by implementing physical and thermal pretreatments below the gelatinization temperature and before the hydrolytic process. The pretreatments increased the biocatalytic action of the enzymes, causing significant changes in the morphology of the granules, and superficial lacerations were found in samples of starches pretreated with ultrasound (UTS) or annealing and ultra-rapid freezing (ANN-C). At the structural level, the modified starches revealed substantial changes as the infrared spectra reflected a displacement of the absorption bands in the region from 900 to 1100 cm-1. This is associated with an alteration and reorganization of the amorphous and crystalline zones of the granules and is consistent with a decrease in amylose content (from 19.53% to 17.64%) and an increase in the crystallinity index. The thermal behavior of the starches was also modified by increasing the peak temperature (from 68.22°C to 75.38°C) and reducing the gelatinization enthalpy (from 19.34 to 15.79 J/g). UTS and ANN-C pretreatments significantly improved the mesoporous and hydrophilic properties of the modified cassava starches.

Authors: Hernández-Narváez Desireé , Torres-Duque Joaquín , Sierra-Correa Paula
Published: June 2023

La implementación de la adaptación basada en ecosistemas (AbE) y el carbono azul (CA) favorece la gestión del cambio climático; el Gran Caribe tiene alto potencial para desarrollar ambas medidas, sin embargo, existe una contextualización limitada sobre el respaldo que brindan los países para su ejecución. Bajo ese enfoque se analiza la inclusión de las medidas AbE y CA en la normatividad e instituciones como mecanismo para la gestión del cambio climático en el Gran Caribe. Para esto, se realizó una revisión documental cualitativa (n = 77), donde el 25 % de los registros abordan la normatividad e instituciones que respaldan la adaptación y mitigación del cambio climático, el 35 % presentan impactos de normatividad en la ejecución de AbE y CA, y el 40 % de los textos relacionan las áreas marinas protegidas como instrumentos de política propicios para la gestión de ambas medidas. AbE y CA necesitan normativas específicas de respaldo, la aplicación de AbE en manglares y pastos marinos es limitada, y el CA es incipiente. Existen dificultades de acceso a la financiación, se precisa el fortalecimiento de la gobernanza, el mejoramiento en la participación de las partes interesadas y la capacidad de las instituciones.
Memoria y desastre socionatural. Una mirada global a los estudios sociales de la memoria y su relación con desastres socionaturales entre 2000 y 2020
Authors: Aguillón-Lombana Angélica , Serna-Dimas Adrián
Published: June 2023

En este artículo se presenta un estado de la discusión sobre los estudios sociales de la memoria en relación con diferentes tipos desastres socionaturales. El objetivo de la investigación fue examinar la producción científica en la triada conceptual memoria-desastre-identidad para facilitar la comprensión del campo de estudio e incentivar el interés investigativo. Para ello, se realizó una revisión documental sobre la producción académica llevada a cabo entre 2000 y 2020 en los ámbitos nacional, latinoamericano y mundial. Se compilaron y analizaron 83 textos que evidencian preocupación por revisar la incidencia del desastre en la configuración de los procesos de recuerdo y olvido de los individuos afectados, de la sociedad y sobre el evento disruptivo en sí mismo. Los resultados evidencian que, si bien se han logrado avances significativos en los veinte años analizados, el campo disciplinar aún es frágil en países con alta propensión al riesgo de desastre. Así, la principal conclusión que puede esbozarse tiene que ver con la insuficiencia de estudios que recuperen las memorias de los desastres socionaturales, que recojan las voces de sus víctimas y que las reivindiquen como forma de reparación material y simbólica después del evento disruptivo que transforma la existencia de los afectados.

Authors: Montoya-Tangarife Claudia , Salazar Burrows Alejandro , Olea Peñaloza Jorge , Jorquera Guajardo Felipe
Published: June 2023

Las principales transformaciones territoriales en el valle central de Chile están asociadas a los procesos de urbanización, dejando susceptible las áreas de importancia ambiental. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo determinar los tipos de cambios en relación con las áreas naturales protegidas (ANP) de la zona central, determinando las principales y ofreciendo una explicación para cada una de ellas. La metodología empleada se basa en los cambios de cobertura de usos de suelo entre 2002 y 2015 a partir de la fotointerpretación. Para establecer las tipológicas se elaboró una matriz de confusión, caracterizando cada una de las unidades de estudio. A partir de lo anterior, se estableció la relación existente entre las infraestructuras urbanas a las ANP. Entre las conclusiones principales se destaca que el mayor impacto sobre las ANP se da por la tipología urbana, ejerciendo mayor presión con el avance del tiempo. Existe una permeabilidad en los espacios urbanos-rurales-naturales, lo que obliga a pensar en nuevas tipologías funcionales que den cuenta de estos nuevos espacios. En definitiva, estos espacios dinámicos cumplen un rol dentro de un contexto que también va evolucionado.

Authors: Azevedo Úrsula Ruchkys de , Costa Daniel Matias
Published: June 2023

A bacia de Vargem das Flores no município de Contagem/MG é palco de intensos conflitos relacionados ao uso do solo e políticas divergentes referentes ao ordenamento territorial e proteção ambiental, uma vez que a área é protegida por legislação ambiental. A jusante da bacia encontra-se um barramento para a formação do reservatório Vargem das Flores, que abastece a população urbana da Região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte. A vigência dos interesses municipais sobre os interesses metropolitanos colocou as áreas verdes remanescentes, cursos d’água e calhas de drenagem em risco pela possibilidade de expansão urbana na área. Nesse contexto, o presente estudo buscou mapear em Vargem das Flores a possibilidade de compatibilização entre expansão urbana e conservação ambiental e identificar possíveis conflitos de interesse na bacia. Utilizou-se o método de análise multicritério que resultou em três sínteses: expansão urbana, conservação ambiental e integração. Após a construção das sínteses, foi construída uma aproximação alternativa com o objetivo de identificar aptidões de uso do solo com base no plano diretor, resultando em um mapeamento que buscou atender as necessidades identificadas no território. Os resultados revelaram que o zoneamento proposto em 2018 coloca em risco recursos naturais fundamentais para a existência do reservatório. A síntese de aptidão adaptada ao plano apresentou uma alternativa que compatibiliza os interesses conflitantes existentes.

Authors: Einsle Carmen-Sarah , Escalera-Izquierdo Gregorio , García-Fernández Jerónimo
Published: June 2023

Social media are nowadays used in all sectors, and likewise frequently within the sports industry. However, there is a lack of studies that offer a holistic understanding of the phenomenon of social media engagement (SME) in this area. Thus, the main object of the present study was the elaboration of a systematic review of the existing literature of the past ten years about SME within the field of sports events. The study was carried out following the PRISMA guidelines. By searching the databases Web of Science, Scopus, ProQuest, and Academic Search Ultimate, we identified 208 studies. After screening and reviewing for eligibility, we finally included 28 articles in the present study. The methodologies, types of analysis applied, main objectives, and the results on SME of the articles included in the synthesis were systematically reviewed. The findings showed that only four articles had as a principal theme the SME. Social media offer a useful tool for engagement, but SME adopts must still gain greater recognition. The need to co-create with users and engage them on social media, due to the great utility of social media in this sector is highlighted based on the results. It was found that SME around sports events remains an emerging and still developing research field which presents a wide range of future research lines.
EU digital communication strategy during the COVID-19 vaccination campaign: Framing, contents and attributed roles at stake
Authors: Jiménez-Alcarria Francisco , Tuñón-Navarro Jorge
Published: June 2023

If in recent years the European Union (EU) has had to face complex and multifactorial “poly-crises” (such as Brexit, refugees or the euro), the pandemic caused by COVID-19 has been an unprecedented event on a global scale with important implications at all levels. Indeed, it has reinforced public health issues aimed at protecting the population as nodal elements of the policies implemented by this organization. This research aims to analyze the different organizational communication strategies on Twitter implemented by the main EU institutions during the COVID-19 vaccination campaign, in order to examine the presence of this exceptional milestone. This study has been carried out using an eminently quantitative methodology, based on a content analysis to quantify the different variables and indicators established for the publications of the official profiles of the European Commission, the European Parliament and the European Council. The proposed categories focus on exploring their predominant thematic areas, as well as main purposes/attributed functions. In the light of the results obtained, it is concluded that the vaccination campaign is a milestone with a considerable volume of publications by all profiles. However, among the attributed functions, the distribution of aseptic information has been predominant, which is why it is discussed whether these institutions have sufficiently taken advantage of the possibilities offered by the digital environment of Twitter for the dissemination of the European message.

USE OF MAGNESIUM ASPARTATE FOR ENRICHMENT OF SEMI-FINISHED MEAT PRODUCTS
Authors: Patyukov Sergey , Fugol Anna , Palamarchuk Anna
Published: June 2023

In this work, the influence of magnesium aspartate on the biological value and organoleptic characteristics of meat patties - semi-finished products made of minced meat - was studied.
The role of magnesium for human is extremely large, it is one of the essential nutritional factors, since magnesium can improve metabolism and blood formation.
Magnesium aspartate is a biologically active substance that has the ability to increase the bioavailability of magnesium and improve its absorption in the body. Recently, magnesium aspartate has been actively used not only as a medicine, but also as an additive to food products, in particular, for enriching semi-finished meat products.
The purpose of this work is to study the effect of enrichment of meat patties with magnesium aspartate on their biological value, product storage ability, taste, smell and texture characteristics. Experiments were carried out and meat patties were evaluated before and after enrichment with magnesium aspartate.
As a result of the study, it was found that the enrichment of meat patties with the studied additive leads to an increase in the magnesium content in the product, which can have a positive effect on the health of the consumer.
A recipe for patties with the addition of magnesium salts has been developed. A comparative evaluation of control samples and samples with different concentrations of additive was carried out. It was found that the additive affects the organoleptic characteristics, and also inhibits the growth and development of microflora in semi-finished products, which leads to an increase in shelf life.
Evaluation of the taste, smell and texture characteristics of meat patties showed that enrichment with magnesium aspartate in the recommended doses does not affect the taste and smell of the product, but leads to an improvement in the texture. Increasing the water-binding capacity of the product makes it more tender, juicy and appetizing.
Taking into account that for better absorption of ions in the body, the presence of vitamin D and B6 is necessary, the required amount of vitamins was calculated and introduced into the product.
Thus, the enrichment of meat patties with magnesium aspartate can be beneficial for human health and improve the quality of the product. These results can be used in the food industry when developing new products.
A NUMERICAL STUDY OF TRANS-/SUPERCRITICAL FUEL INJECTION BASED ON A GENERALIZED CUBIC EQUATION OF STATE
Authors: Ma Jie , Liu Hongsheng , Li Liang , Huang Jianxin , Xie MaoZhao
Published: June 2023

Trans-/supercritical injection has great potential for improving the formation of combustible gas mixtures and emission performance. In this work, based on the sufficient validation of the current numerical framework, we compared the Peng-Robinson (PR) equation of state (EoS) with the
Redlich-Kwong-Peng-Robinson (RK-PR) EoS and applied them to simulate the injection events under trans-/supercritical conditions. The effects of different nozzle diameters and chamber conditions on jet characteristics and pseudo-boiling were investigated. The results indicated that RK-PR EoS has higher prediction accuracy. The fuel injection characteristics are significantly affected by the
nozzle diameter and the time required to undergo the pseudo-boiling process becomes longer with increasing nozzle diameter. Compared with chamber temperature, chamber pressure has a greater influence on the fuel injection and mixture formation behavior. The high pseudo-boiling intensity caused by the low supercritical pressure significantly increases the jet length and reduces the mixing layer thickness. Moreover, unlike the single-component case, the mixing effect within a multicomponent fluid influences both pseudo-boiling occurrence and its intensity.

Published: June 2023

The role of the Brinkman model is analyzed in the current work by taking the flow of ternary hybrid nanofluids with heat transfer in the presence of radiation and mass transpiration. The ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are yielded from the partial differential equations (PDEs) by using similarity variables. This flow is used in many real life significances viz., glass blowing, petroleum products, polymer extrusion, and so on. The role of the Brinkman model and radiation is used in velocity
and heat equations. These equations are solved exactly to get a solution domain and confluent hypergeometric equation. Three types of nanoparticles, namely Al2O3, single wall carbon nanotubes, and graphene are inserted in the flow to enhance thermal efficiency. Additionally, dual behavior is seen in the instance of the shrinking sheet. Also, a unique solution is observed at the stretching sheet case. The novelty of the current analysis explains the stagnation point flow by considering the effect of the Brinkman model in the presence of ternary nanoparticles. By using these nanoparticles, the main goal of the current work is achieved. It includes the effect of the Brinkman model on ternary nanofluids, and the comparison between three
nanoparticles can be achieved. The results of various parameters viz., solid volume fractions, mass transpiration, radiation, Brinkman number, porous medium parameter, and heat source/sink parameter can be examined with the help of graphical arrangements. At the end, we conclude the important outcomes as the solution domain value decays on rising values of porous medium parameter and mass transpiration values rise on increaing values of the solution domain.

Temizlik kavramıyla bağlantılı olarak Türkçede kullanılan arı-, arı(g), arıt-, arın- sözcükleri makalenin ikinci kısmını oluşturmuştur. Bu isim ve fiillerin Saha Türkçesindeki karşılığı olarak oluşmuş olan ıraas ismi ve ıraastaa- fiili Saha Türkçesindeki anlamları ve kullanımları açısından incelenmiştir. Ses denklikleri açısından ve anlam açısından incelenen sözcükler, bu bağlamda değerlendirilmiş, ulaşılan sonuçlar ortaya konulmuştur. Ortaya çıkan sonuçlara bakıldığında, Eski Türkçe yū- fiilinin Saha Türkçesi karşılığının suuy- şeklinde, Eski Türkçe arıg isminin Saha Türkçesi karşılığının ıraas olduğu görülmektedir. Eski Türkçe arıg/arıt- ve Saha Türkçesi karşılığı olan ıraas/ıraastaa- sözcüklerinin anlamsal olarak daha farklı olduğu, daha manevi anlamda temizlik içerdiği dikkat çekmektedir.
Eflak ve Boğdan Voyvodalıklarının 1787-1792 Osmanlı-Rus ve Avusturya Savaşlarındaki Rolleri

Osmanlı Devleti 18. yüzyılda geçmişle güçlü bağlarına devam ederken gelişmelere ayak uydurmaya başlayarak modernleşme sürecine doğru yeni adımlar atmaktaydı. Avrupa devletleri için de bu yüzyıl güç dengelerinin değişikliğe uğradığı bir dönemdi.

Tuna Nehri’nin kuzeyinde yer alan Eflak ve Boğdan voyvodalıkları, 16 ve 17. yüzyıllarda Osmanlı Devleti, Avusturya-Macaristan İmparatorluğu ve Lehistan arasında nüfuz çatışmasının gerçekleştiği iki önemli eyaletti. 18. yüzyılda ise buralardaki hâkimiyet mücadelesi, üç büyük devlet olan Osmanlı İmparatorluğu, Rus Çarlığı ve Avusturya İmparatorluğu arasında yapıldı.

Osmanlı Devleti, 18. yüzyılın ikinci yarısına kadar Avrupa devletlerine karşı hala güçlü bir görüntü sergiliyordu. 1768 yılında başlayan Osmanlı-Rus savaşı her iki taraf için bir dönüm noktası oldu. 1774 Küçük Kaynarca Anlaşması’yla sonuçlanan bu savaş Osmanlı Devleti’nin zafiyetini gözler önüne sererken, Rusya’nın ise güçlendiğini gösteriyordu. Osmanlı devlet adamlarının bazıları, Rusya’nın yayılmacı politikasını durdurma ve kaybedilen prestiji yeniden kazanma yolunun, savaş meydanı olduğunu düşünüyordu. Bu devlet adamlarının başını ise Sadrazam Yusuf Paşa çekiyordu. 19 Ağustos 1787 tarihinde toplanan meşveret meclisinde, bu görüş baskın geldi ve Rusya ile savaşmaya karar verildi.

18. yüzyılın başından itibaren Fenerli voyvodalar tarafından idare edilen Eflak ve Boğdan, Osmanlı Tarihi’nde genelde Rusya ve Avusturya’yla yaptıkları iş birliğiyle anılmıştır. Bu çerçevede bu makalede, Eflak ve Boğdan memleketlerinin 1787-1792 Osmanlı-Rus Avusturya savaşında yaptıkları hizmetlerden bahsedilecek ve Fener voyvodaları, genel algının dışında farklı bir bakış açısıyla ele alınacaktır.

Konu bütünlüğünü sağlamak amacıyla, 18. yüzyılda Eflak ve Boğdan voyvodalığı idaresinin değişmesine yönelik kısa bir hatırlatma yapıldıktan sonra 1787-1792 Osmanlı-Rus Avusturya Savaşlarında bahsi geçen voyvodalıkların faaliyetleri incelenecektir. Bu kapsamda makalemiz, 1787-1792 Osmanlı-Rus ve Avusturya Savaşı’ndaki Eflak ve Boğdan voyvodalığı örnekleminden yola çıkarak 18. yüzyılda Batı yönünde yapılan savaşlarda Eflak ve Boğdan’ın, Osmanlı Devleti için ifade ettiği değeri göstermek amacı taşımaktadır.
Land Grab CT: Leveraging Branding Principles as Design and Publishing Tools

Published: June 2023

The project "Land Grab CT" is ongoing at the University of Connecticut, and is a collaboration between members of Greenhouse Studios, the Native American and Indigenous Students' Association, and the UConn Human Rights Institute. A major focal point of the project was a website that contextualizes the University of Connecticut as a colonial institution within its status as a land grant institution funded by the Morrill Act of 1862. Other activities included speaker series, dialogue events, interviews, and a social media campaign that were all directed towards educating the University of Connecticut community about its colonial history and current disparity in resources and relationships with the Native community. Because of the wide range of dissemination pathways and need for community engagement, the project team incorporated branding design from the beginning of the project lifecycle to help find a cohesive project voice and to tailor content and design towards the expected audience. This paper illustrates the design process of the project, the integration of branding principles, and highlights some real and potential difficulties in using branding principles in public digital humanities projects.Le projet "Land Grab CT" en cours à l'Université du Connecticut est le résultat d'une collaboration entre les membres de Greenhouse Studios, l'Association des étudiants indigènes et amérindiens (NAISA) et l'Institut des droits de l'homme de l'Université du Connecticut. L'un des principaux axes du projet est la création d'un site web qui situe l'université du Connecticut en tant qu'institution coloniale dans le cadre de son statut d'institution d'octroi de terres financée par la loi Morrill de 1862. D'autres activités ont été organisées, notamment des séries de conférences, des dialogues, des entretiens et une campagne dans les reseaux sociaux, tous destinés à informer la communauté de l'université du Connecticut sur son histoire coloniale et sur les disparités actuelles en matière de ressources et de relations avec la communauté autochtone. En raison du large éventail de voies de diffusion et de la nécessité d'un engagement communautaire, l'équipe du projet a intégré la stratégie de marque depuis le début du cycle de vie du projet afin de trouver une voix cohérente et d'adapter le contenu et la conception à l'audience attendue. Cet article vise à presenter le processus de conception du projet, l'intégration des principes de stratégie de la marque et met en évidence certaines difficultés réelles et potentielles liées à l'utilisation des ses principes dans les humanités numériques publiques.

Strategies provide a picture of a peacefulArctic, and while Russia’s role in the conflicts of recent years is a cause for concern,states in the region are voicing cooperation with Russia and its success not only intheir actions but also at the level of strategies.
A Nyugat-Balkán, mint biztonságot támogató régió
Authors: Bihari Rita
Published: June 2023

Az Európai Unió (EU, Unió) nyugat-balkáni összetett stabilizációs és államépítési erőfeszítései vegyes eredménnyel zárultak. Az EU bővítése és a pozitív béke menetrendje helyi szinten nem hozott optimális eredményt. Ellentétes felfogások, kölcsönös bizalmatlanság, nyitott kétoldali kérdések, bonyolult belső dinamika, hiányzó regionális „mi” tudat jellemzi a régiót. A biztonságtámogató attitűd és a működő biztonságiközösség megteremtésének az államokon belül és az államok között is több akadálya van. Az elemzés azt a tevékenységet kívánja bemutatni, amelyet az Unió az 1990-esévek óta folytatott a régióban, kiemelve a biztonsági közösség építésének jelentőségét, az Európai Unióval történő partnerség lehetőségét a biztonságra irányuló erőfeszítésekben, végül levonva a következtetéseket arról, hogy a régió mennyire fejlődött biztonságszolgáltatóterületként.
A lovasképesség lehetséges műveleti alkalmazása
Authors: Barnabás Ádám
Published: June 2023

A Magyar Honvédség állományában az állami protokoll eseményeken megjelenőHonvéd Huszár Díszegység kötelékében honvédhuszárok reprezentálják nemzetilovaskultúránkat, a világhírű és hungarikummá minősített magyar huszárságot. A díszegység huszárjainak lovasképessége – a meglévő kiképzett lóállomány protokollfeladatokon túlmutató lehetséges műveleti alkalmazása – új képességgel bővítheti a modern honvédséget. A jelen tanulmány célja – a teljesség igénye nélkül – a lóképességeinek bemutatása, valamint külföldi példák segítségével a katonai alkalmazáslehetőségeinek és módjainak felvázolása. Célom, hogy a figyelem középpontjába állítsam a napjaink hadseregében szinte már anakronisztikusnak tűnő katonai lovasképességet és tevékenységeket.

In the research work, an attempt to identify the causes of unstable behavior of different samples of kyshtym kaolin during liquefaction was made. The chemical, phase composition and microstructure of kaolins of Kyshtymskoe and Glukhovetskoe deposits are investigated. It has been established that kaolin liquefaction ability is influenced both by the presence of smectite in kaolin and mainly by the degree of ordering of the kaolinite structure. A larger amount of kaolinite with a high-ordered structure ensures good kaolin liquefaction and stable properties of casting mixture based on them. Based on the conducted studies, the possibility of assessing the liquefaction ability of kaolin based on the results of X-ray phase analysis of its structure has been established.
