Ludwig Mises’s Lvivian compass of life
Authors:   SGH Warsaw School of Economics, Poland, Szulczewski Grzegorz
Published: December 2022

Ludwig von Mises belonged to the last generation of people born in the Galician Lviv. His life proves that despite the historical catastrophe suffered by Austria, the free spirit of Galicia can be saved and influence the development of modern economics. His uncompromising moral character took shape in Lviv, which he later expressed in Vienna when he adopted Virgil’s injunction as his life motto: “Yield not thou to ills, but go forth to face them more boldly than thy Fortune shall allow thee”. The article deals with the reception of Mises’s later work. An analysis of his selected works shows that throughout his life he waged a ‘theoretical struggle’ against the blueprint for society and the economy created by Marx, subsequently embodied through terror.
The environmental aspects of Tadeusz Czeżowski’s concept of the sense of life: ‘I’ in the world as a part of it
Authors:   Uniwersytet Śląski, Katowice, Polska, Sztumski Wiesław
Published: December 2022

This article presents the figure of Tadeusz Czeżowski, the creator of the concept of the meaning of human life, formed in the manner of thinking proper to holism and environmental philosophy, called philosophical environmentalism. He considers the meaning of human life in connection with the meaning of other components of nature and society. An individual’s life is fully meaningful when, in pursuing their own purpose, they contribute to the purposes inherent in ever-widening environments up to the infinitely great environment of the universe. This is possible when an individual is treated as an integral component of the universe, inseparable from it.
Stefan Harassek and the problems of contemporary philosophy
Authors:   University of Rzeszów, Poland, Nowak Witold
Published: December 2022

The influence of the national factor on philosophy is expressed in two models of the history of philosophy: the problem-oriented and the culturalist one. The culturalist variety of the history of philosophy includes not only the problems themselves, the ways in which they are solved and the reconstruction of the argumentation, but also the entire cultural context of a given philosophical oeuvre. Among factors influencing philosophy, the analysis also includes the national tradition in which the philosopher is situated. A culturalist history of philosophy requires a high degree of cultural competence and erudition. The researcher must be able to show the interrelationships of the various fields of human culture: philosophy, religion, science, literature, and visual arts. Writing a problem-based history of philosophy, on the other hand, requires the researcher to have developed analytical skills.
Romana Ingardena opalizacje i oscylacje literackie
Authors:   Uniwersytet Rzeszowski, Polska, Mordka Artur
Published: December 2022

The aim of this article is to present Roman Ingarden’s concept of literary opalization and oscillation. The problem of specific literary ambiguity, vagueness, variability will be considered on two complementary planes. The first plane will describe the phenomenon of opalescence and oscillation of the sound and meaning of a linguistic expression, while the second plane will focus on the layer of literary appearances and represented objects. Adopting such an order of considerations will make it possible to indicate those ‘places’ of a literary work of art in which this phenomenon is clearly present and sometimes determines its aesthetic value.
Benedykta Dybowskiego program odrodzenia ludzkości
Authors:   Uniwersytet Zielonogórski, Polska, Słoniowska Anna
Published: December 2022

Benedict Dybowski, explorer of Lake Baikal and Kamchatka, is less known for his pedagogical and philosophical activities. The subject of this article is the Lviv period of his work, which lasted from 1884 until his death. It is worth focusing on his progressive views on the role of women in society, on his innovative calls for the introduction of a unified international language and the unification of religion, and on his proposals to base non-empirical sciences on the results of natural research. He was one of the forerunners of evolutionism in the Polish lands. The consolidation of biological and philosophical thought resulted in Dybowski’s utopian programme for the rebirth of mankind.
„[...] gdy stary Wawel otoczą wody kanału”. Niezrealizowana droga wodna łącząca Dunaj, Wisłę i Dniestr
Authors:   Badaczka niezależna, Niemcy, Kozińska-Witt Hanna
Published: December 2022

The construction of a canal linking the Danube and Vistula was decided by the 1901 Canal Act. Initially, the canal was only planned and discussed in the press. It was not until 1911 that the construction actually began, which was presented in the media as a political victory for the Polish Circle. By the end of the Great War, only a fraction of the original plan had been realised. The city of Kraków benefited most from the sewerage system and flood protection. The author presents the successive phases of the project and presents the context of events from the perspective of Kraków’s elite, particularly the Jewish politicians active in the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
Primadonna opery warszawskiej Bronisława Dowiakowska na gościnnych występach w Galicji
Authors:   Uniwersytet Rzeszowski, Polska, Wąsacz-Krztoń Jolanta
Published: December 2022

Bronisława Dowiakowska (1840–1910) was one of the highly regarded singers of the Warsaw opera. Over a period of more than thirty years she performed a comprehensive repertoire, singing more than a hundred parts. She also performed in operettas. She possessed an excellent vocal technique and musical memory, as well as a talent for acting. She was regarded as one of the most outstanding Polish opera and operetta singers. In the 1870s and 1880s, she made guest appearances in Lviv and Kraków, becoming a mainstay of these theatres. Her visits resonated loudly in the local press. The name of the Warsaw prima donna became indelibly inscribed in the development of Galician musical culture, and in particular the opera stage of 19th-century Galicia.
„Religia przyszłości” Maurycego Straszewskiego w perspektywie współczesnych przemian religii i religijności
Authors:   Uniwersytet Rzeszowski, Polska, Guzowska Beata
Published: December 2022

The category of ‘religion of the future’, which was the subject of Maurycy Straszewski’s philosophical inquiries, is also present in contemporary philosophical, theological or anthropological discourse. Straszewski emphasised that culture, scientific progress and the history of philosophy are inextricably linked to the history of religion and theology. He emphasised the importance of religious needs for the very emergence of dogmatic systems as well as philosophy. Nowadays, we deal with secularisation, on the one hand, and a kind of revitalisation of religion, on the other. The current revival of religiosity differs from earlier ones in its global scope and its original forms, and also involves a kind of ‘suspension’ of the previous determinants of religion, such as dogma, authority, cult, orthodoxy.
Koneczny a Fukuyama. Szkic porównawczy
Authors:   Politechnika Śląska, Gliwice, Polska, Skorupka Alfred
Published: December 2022

The article compares the views of the Polish philosopher of civilisation, Feliks Koneczny with the American political philosopher and political scientist, Francis Fukuyama. Koneczny is a conservative, while Fukuyama is a liberal, but there are great similarities in their concepts of the world’s major civilisations. Their views on national identity are also similar. The author considers Koneczny’s concept of pluralism of civilisations compared to Fukuyama’s concept of unification of the world by liberal democracy as the main difference between the two scholars.

Published: December 2022

Human skulls study occupies a special place in anthropology due to a significant informational role of this part of the skeleton in determining both general (group) and individual features enabling restoration of individual physical topology and lifetime appearance. The paper provides the anthropological type description of the ancient population from the Lower Volga region according to the data of craniology and sculptural anthropological reconstruction of the face from the skull. In the course of the study, two female and two male skulls were craniologically analyzed using the typological approach. Sculptural anthropological reconstructions were obtained for three skulls: the two female and one male. Reconstruction of the external appearance of the face from the skull of the second male skull was carried out using a digital method. Anthropological type featuring of the two female skulls from the Srubna culture and the pre-Sauromatian time burials allows us to determine their type as a Long-headed Caucasoids, predominant among the Late Bronze Age population. The male skulls of the Early Iron Age are also characterized by Caucasoid features, but they have a brachycranial skull and a weakened horizontal profiling of the face. The presence of a long-headed Caucasoid complex on the female skull from the pre-Sauromatian burial, combined with a crouched on the left side funeral rite, suggests that the studied individuals had a partial continuity from the Bronze Age population. The morphological features of the Sauromatian and Early Sarmatian skulls have analogies in the synchronous population of Western Kazakhstan, Southern Urals and the Lower Volga region. Visualization of the bone structures of the facial skull gives an idea of how the population from the Lower Volga region looked like in different eras.
Revisiting the Origin Time of the Sarmatians in the Crimean Steppe
Authors:   Sevastopol State University, Kropotov Viktor , Rukavishnikova Irina ,   Institute of Archeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Beilin Denis ,   Institute of Archaeology of Crimea of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: December 2022

The study deals with the question of determining time of the first appearance of the Sarmatians in the Crimean Steppe. Discrepancy between scientific interpretations of ancient written sources and dating by archaeological researches can be observed: while the former admit that the Sarmatians inhabited the Crimean peninsula in 3rd – 2nd centuries BC, the later assume the origin time to be the late 1st century BC. The monument considered in the article is burial 80 of kurgan Ungut-1 which partially helps to overcome this discrepancy. The studied monument is a single burial of a male positioned on his back with his head oriented to the north accompanied by a moulded pot, a fibula, a knife and a bead. These grave goods and, the first of all, fibula date back the burial to the early 1st century BC, and allow this Sarmatian complex to be considered the earliest precisely dated one in the Crimea. This fact indicates the presence of the nomads on the peninsula during the reign of Mithradates VI Eupator. At the same time, the examined monument does not mitigate completely discrepancies existing between ancient written sources and massive archaeological material regarding their timing. The only indisputable fact is that the nomads were there during the events of the Diophantine wars. However, their presence on the Crimean peninsula in earlier periods, especially in the late 4th – early 3rd centuries BC, remains disputable.
Results of Archaeoparasitological and Palynological Research Conducted on Cultural Layers of the Artesian Ancient Settlement (Eastern Crimea)

Published: December 2022

The article presents the results of archaeoparasitological and palynological research of the cultural layers located in the ancient Artesian settlement in the Eastern Crimea. The study revealed the species composition of parasites and palynological spectrum in the cultural layers. Parasite eggs distribution over the layers indicates high content of eggs in almost all periods of the citadel’s existence. High abundance of geohelminth eggs in the studied samples, which might belong to both humans and domestic animals, indicates the unsatisfactory sanitary state of the settlement and the constant risk of infection with geohelminthiasis and intestinal infections possessing the same fecal-oral route of transmission. Features of the studied spore-pollen spectra do not allow a detailed reconstruction of the vegetation dynamics in the vicinity of the Artezian fortress at the turn of the millennium. The major reason is complexity of spectra formation: in addition to pollen deposited from the air (pollen rain), a significant proportion consists of pollen grains brought from other sources. Furthermore, interpretation of the spore-pollen spectra is complicated by presence of a large number of microcharcoals and burnt pollen grains. Despite the above-mentioned challenges in the study of samples from the cultural layers of the Artezian archaeological site using spore-pollen method, we have determined that the inhabitants of the settlement probably used animal dung as fuel, and that at the turn of the millennium, forestless open landscapes covered with steppe vegetation were predominant around the settlement. An important result of the study is the demonstration of unexplored opportunities to investigate cultural layers by archaeoparasitological and palynological methods and of the obtained data use as a source of bioarchaeological information.
Ishkulovsky II Burial Mounds, a 13th – 14th Centuries Monument of the Mongolian Nomads in the Southern Urals

Published: December 2022

Introduction. The Mongol conquest of the Eastern European steppes implies the presence of the conquerors themselves in the occupied territories which should be reflected in the archaeological monuments. The Ishkulovsky II burial mound is one of these monuments consisting of stone kurgans with a diameter of 3–5 m and a height of 0.15–0.2 m left by the nomads of the Golden Horde time from the territory of the Ulus of Jochi. The purpose of the article is to publish the materials of the necropolis and the authors’ attempt to identify the burials of the Mongols themselves for whom one of the main signs of funeral rites, among others, was the northern body orientation of the buried individuals. In the context of the article, the fact of Islamization of the Mongols under the influence of the Kipchaks is of considerable importance, which was reflected in the material of Kurgan 5, as well as in the burial mounds 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12 where funeral things were not found. These burials can be considered Muslim with high certainty, if body orientation of the buried individuals is a western or north-western. Methods. The article uses the method of analogies and cross-dating to study the funeral rite and the material culture. The source of the study is 13 burials studied during the excavations of the 12 stone burial mounds of the Ishkulovsky II burial mound. Discussion and results. According to the funeral rite and clothing inventory, the burial mound was left by a mixed population of nomads, some of whom are associated with the Kipchaks, the other finds analogies among the burials of the Mongols. Thus, the dating of the necropolis fits into a narrow chronological period from the end of the 13th to the 14th century. A kind of confessional dualism can be observed in the rite in which both paganism and Islam were equally “legitimate” even within separate tribal divisions.
Revisiting the Prospects of Archaeological Tourism Development
Authors:   Volgograd State University, Zolotovskiy Vladimir , Krivosheev Mikhail ,   Volgograd State University
Published: December 2022

The purpose of the paper is to identify high-potential organizational forms and developmental prospects of archaeological tourism in the Russian Federation. Despite the obvious importance of archaeological tourism for cultural and educational touristic activities, it is still underdeveloped in Russia. The reason might be a vague doctrinal understanding of archaeological tourism features. Educational and protective essence of archeological tourism in the field of cultural heritage preservation seems to be underestimated. Furthermore, low involvement of the State in the development and promotion of archaeological heritage can be observed. Several forms of archaeological tourism development can be currently distinguished in the global tourist market, including Education and Research based Archaeological Tourism mainly non-profit oriented and Culture and Recreation based Archaeological Tourism commercial in its nature. The authors of the paper consider complex archaeological cultural sites in the form of Archaeological Parks to be one of the most effective forms of archaeological tourism development. Open Archaeological Funds are another high-potential organizational form aiming at preserving and promoting Russian cultural heritage. Government regulation and conceptualization of the archaeological tourism development are also required in order to specify means of archaeological tourism stimulation demand and mechanisms for facilitating interaction between subjects and removing existing obstacles.
Continuity and Novelty in Metal Complexes of the South Eastern Europe of the Late Middle – Early Late Bronze Age
Authors:   State Historical Museum, Gak Evgenii
Published: December 2022

The paper represents an analysis of metal complexes of the Late Middle – Early Late Bronze Age of the steppe and forest-steppe zones of Eastern Europe within the framework of the three-stage periodization. In the system of radiocarbon dating, this period covers 2300/2200 –1800/1700 cal BC and a number of the Post-Catacomb, the Post-Corded ware, the Chariot and the Srubnaya cultures. The source base of the study is the metal objects of the burial complexes. The most variable widespread numerous and chronologically significant categories of objects in the alterability of which new trends in shaping (fashion) are clearly traced (bladed tools, temple rings, string of beads, bracelets) were subjected to a detailed comparative morphological analysis. The analysis is carried out at the levels “territory – chronology – culture” in the context of data for metal production standards of the previous and subsequent periods. The author comes to conclusion that the metal complex of Post-Catacomb cultures is based on the traditions of the Middle Bronze Age with innovations of the Central European origin, mainly in the west, in the Babino cultural circle, and of the Caucasian origin, mainly in the southeast, in the Lola cultural circle. Metal inventory appearance in the chariot cultures was determined by innovations that spread from the north and east, while maintaining a number of archaic stereotypes of the Caucasian-steppe. At the early stage of the Srubnaya culture, metalworking continues this path of development taking into account actual trends of forming.

Published: December 2022

The Krasnodar Museum presents one of the largest amphora collections in the world. Materials from the Maeotian necropolises of the Region near the farms of Prikubanskiy, Lenin, the village of Starokorsunskaya, etc. are stored here. Almost half of the collection consists of vessels from the excavations of the Prikubansky necropolis – 324 amphorae and 101 complexes. Based on the analysis of imports (amphorae and black-glazed pottery) from the burials of this necropolis, we can talk about almost a twofold reduction in the supply of products to the settlement after the middle of the 4th century BC, with a tendency to further decline by the beginning of the 3rd century BC. The materials of the the Prikubanskiynecropolis are characterized by the absence of amphorae of Chios and Peparethos. The containers of these large production centers are represented by a minimum number in the second part of the Krasnodar collection, which includes 349 vessels originating from excavations at least 30 other archaeological sites of the Kuban Region. The existing individual Chios amphorae originate mainly from excavations on the Taman Peninsula. The article discusses several fragmented Chios amphorae with englyphic stamps “A”. At the same time, the Krasnodar collection contains a large number of amphorae of Hellenistic time (in particular Rhodes and the so-called “Prikubanskiy” series), which in other museums are represented by single copies. At the same time, stamped Rhodian vessels from Kuban Region give new, previously unknown combinations of names of eponyms and fabricants.

Published: December 2022

Abstract— Chamaecrista is one of the largest genera of Leguminosae, subfamily Caesalpinioideae. Traditionally, it has been divided into six sections, of which Chamaecrista sect. Absus is the largest, with 31 series. Chamaecrista sect. Absus
ser. Setosae comprises nine species. Chamaecrista setosa is the most widely distributed species, comprising four varieties, distinguished by the type and distribution of glandular trichomes, and the leaflet venation. Given the importance of leaflet venation in the delimitation
of the taxa, here we performed a study of leaflet architecture of all species of the series and a more detailed morphological study for the Chamaecrista setosa complex. For the study of leaf architecture, 2D images of the leaflets were made using the Faxitron x-ray technique. The morphological
studies were based on herbarium specimens. We present the details of the leaflet architecture for the species of Chamaecrista sect. Absus ser. Setosae, and we propose nomenclatural changes for a variety of Chamaecrista setosa and some corrections to typifications.
During our studies we also found a new species, Chamaecrista forzzae, which is morphologically similar to Chamaecrista setosa and Chamaecrista multiseta. It is here described and illustrated.

Published: December 2022

Polymer gears have great potential in motion and power transmission since they offer many advantages over conventional metal gears. However, the use of polymer gears in industrial applications has been limited due to inadequate information with respect to their performance and designs. In this research work, our goal was to study and analyze the characteristics of a polymer gear produced from polylactic acid through the a three-dimensional (3D) printing process. Experiments involving polymer test gears were carried out on a test rig at three rotational speeds. The parameters studied during the investigation were the infill percentage, rotational speed, and load attendance. Four types of failure characteristics-namely, the formation of debris, micro-surface condition monitoring, weight loss, and thermal damage-were analyzed in the experiments. The investigation showed that the weight reduction wear rate was related to the development of debris and the condition of the gear. The test gear wear rate from the weight reduction through material scratching and breakage increased progressively under extreme wear conditions. Further thermal analysis and microstructure observations also revealed the impact of temperature from frictional heat on the amount of wear on the polymer gear. The higher the operating temperature, the higher was the amount of wear seen in the polymer gear.

A CRITICAL DEBATE ON THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF DIGITAL MEMORY
Authors: ÖZARSLAN Zeynep
Published: December 2022

Digital technologies have transformed the conventions of preserving, recalling, and forgetting the past as they provide new digital tools and platforms to remember, to forget and to collect data for individuals, societies, and corporations. With the convergence of new media, memory gains a global aspect along with its personal and local characteristics and turns into the digitally mediated memory. These technologies enable digital memory to be indexed, archived, circulated, and processed infinitely in cyberspace. Therefore, the advancements in the Web and cloud computing technologies yield new dimensions for memory studies to be discussed from a political economy perspective since digitally mediated memory has some economic, political, societal, and cultural impacts on societies. This study conceptually scrutinizes the commodification processes of digital memory and analyzes its material and immaterial bases from a political economy perspective, and claims that they are fundamentally interwoven. The rare earths which are used to produce technological devices are considered as the material basis. Additionally, major technology corporations using these rare earths, and their data centers are taken as the extensions of its materiality. Digitally archived, managed, and retrieved memory is considered as data, which represent immaterial basis of digital memory. The materiality and immateriality of digital memory are not regarded as independent from the inherent power relations and ideologies of the current data economy. Thus, this study aims to discuss digital memory from a political economy perspective to reveal the flow between its materiality and immateriality and the inherent power relations in the data economy. It also poses the potential challenges, risks, and outcomes we may encounter in such an economic system.
The recommendations of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority for the banking sector – scope, legal nature and procedure of their creation
Authors: Kurzępa-Dedo Katarzyna
Published: December 2022

One of the sources of banking prudential standards are recommendations issued by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority in the form of attachments to the resolutions it adopts. Article 137 para 1 point 5 of the Banking Law does contain a competence norm in this respect, while indicating that the recommendations relate to good practices of prudent and stable management of banks, but does not regulate the procedure for their development and does not define their legal nature. The article discusses the objective and subjective scope, functions and legal nature of the recommendations. Moreover, the course of issuing recommendations addressed to the banking sector was presented and the scope of participation in this process by other entities, apart from the regulatory body, was determined.
Dyskurs wokół aborcji – analiza teoretyczno-prawna
Authors: Szecówka Paweł
Published: December 2022

The dispute over the acceptability of abortion has been known to the world for thousands of years. There are still no objective premises by which the dispute could be resolved. However, this is not the main problem. The real problem is, that there is no field for conversation on this matter in which both pro-life and pro-choice adherents can feel comfortable with. The author of this article believes, that the lack of a common language is the source of this problem. Clear absence of a common understanding of individual concepts (key to the dispute) in both social discussions and in legal doctrine, causes constant misunderstandings and constantly progressing polarization of views. This polarization is definitely not conducive to the development of a good and safe legal order, which representatives of both sides (pro-life and pro-choice) could be content with.
Ideological, educational and propaganda aspects of the 4th National Youth Spartakiad in 1975 in Bialystok
Authors: Gawroński Arkadiusz
Published: December 2022

During the communist Polish People’s Republic period, National Youth Spartakiads ranked among the biggest sporting events in the country. The competitions, in which young people participated, provided an ideal environment for exerting ideological and educational influence on them. This influence should be understood as actions taken by the state authorities aimed at shaping the awareness of the indicated social group and adopting by the members of this group the attitudes desired from the perspective of the party and state authorities of the People’s Republic of Poland. The communist authorities engaged co-operating socialist youth organisations to fulfil that task. The aim of this paper is to discuss the activities of youth organisations in terms of their ideological and educational impact during a major sporting event such as the 4th National Youth Spartakiad in 1975, using the example of the activities of youth organizations in the Białostockie, Łomżyńskie and Suwalskie Voivodships. The sources were archival materials found in the resources of the Archive of New Files in Warsaw and the State Archive in Białystok, as well as press materials published in the local newspaper “Gazeta Współczesna”. The article discusses the participation of youth organisations in the promotion of physical culture in the Polish People’s Republic, their propaganda activities and the methods of ideological and educational agitation adopted by these organisations during the 4th National Youth Spartakiad. The area of interest also included the use of the ideals of the Olympic movement to shape the attitudes of young people desired by the communist authorities.
Gastronomy tourism and the COVID-19 pandemic crisis
Authors: Ostrowska-Tryzno Anna , Pawlikowska-Piechotka Anna
Published: December 2022

This paper aims to consider a sector of cultural tourism: gastronomy tourism (also known as food tourism, culinary tourism) in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. This is a conceptual paper, based mainly on the critical review of academic literature and UN WTO, UN WHO and UNESCO documents. By synthesising available data and research results, this paper provides an assessment of the present situation of gastronomy tourism, and tries to formulate some trends possible to be developed in the future, once the pandemic is over (as a potential role of culinary tourism in the revival of the whole sector). The research questions focused on the meaning and tradition of gastronomy tourism, consequences of the COVID-19 crisis and post-pandemic regeneration of the sector. The paper concludes that trends seen in gastronomy tourism sector before lockdown are no longer applicable during the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. The new technologies helped to overcome some of the challenges which this industry currently faces. Several potential trends might be developed after the pandemic crisis, serving as local food and local culinary tradition promotion. Suggestions are provided for further research as discussion about more resilient, sustainable and inclusive gastronomy tourism in the future as well as recovery practices within the domestic hospitality are important.

A Qualidade das Informações Contábeis e a Governança Corporativa exercem influência sobre a percepção de investidores acerca das empresas de capital aberto. Diante disso, esta pesquisa explora as relações entre a Qualidade das Informações Contábeis, Governança Corporativa e Desempenho Financeiro de empresas brasileiras e francesas. Assim, para demonstrar a existência de relações entre Qualidade das Informações Contábeis e Desempenho Financeiro das empresas, estruturas de governança e Desempenho Financeiro, e Qualidade das Informações Contábeis, estruturas de governança e, ainda, o Desempenho Financeiro das empresas realizou-se um estudo quantitativo de correlação entre essas dimensões. As relações entre qualidade e desempenho foram estatisticamente significantes e comprovadas. As relações entre governança e desempenho se mostraram fortes diante das correlações encontradas. Dentre os indicadores de Desempenho Financeiro, ressalta-se que os de lucratividade estão correlacionados com qualidade e governança com mais frequência do que aqueles de rentabilidade. O resultado comprovou os pressupostos iniciais sobre a existência de tais relações e mostrou que o mercado francês refletiu mais evolução do que o mercado brasileiro, ou seja, as relações entre a Governança Corporativa e o Desempenho Financeiro foram mais evidentes no caso das empresas francesas.

Considering that ambidexterity is the capability of an organization to create, innovate and obtain new discoveries to ensure long-term sustainability, while improving internal procedures aimed at short-term operational efficiency, this research aimed to evaluate the potential that enterprises sheltered at Guamá Science and Technology Park (Belém – PA) have, to achieve a superior performance, based on their ambidextrous management characteristics. This research contributes to advances in strategies of Park's organizations and intends to inspire other enterprises with the same characteristics. Face-to-face interviews were carried out to apply a questionnaire to 19 resident managers of Guamá PCT, and the data were initially treated with descriptive statistics, followed by creation of an "Ambidexterity Index" capable of enabling the analysis of the performance potential of each enterprise. The results indicated that Guamá PCT startups have performance potential, with emphasis on the use of exploration dimension, which presented higher rates of management practices than the exploitation dimension, a fact that can be explained by the very innovation characteristic of the ventures housed in science parks. Thus, it is concluded that the Guamá-PCT ecosystem is favorable for the ambidextrous development of startups, that is, favorable to the development of the capacity to guarantee long-term sustainability, without losing sight of the need to properly manage short-term resources, and this study indicated gaps that must be observed and can be worked on through consulting and training with the sheltered organizations to enhance performance, increasing sustainability and seeking to ensure the long-term survival of these enterprises.

Published: December 2022

The most effective control of Bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) and Bean common mosaic necrosis virus (BCMNV) is achieved by using the seeds of resistant cultivars. During conventional breeding, resistance against BCMV and BCMNV in common bean can be developed by pyramiding the strain-nonspecific dominant I gene with strain-specific recessive (bc-) resistance genes for long-term virus control. In this study, a total of 58 bean genotypes involving registered green and dry bean cultivars, local genotypes, and breeding lines were tested for the presence of known resistance genes. First of all, each genotype was inoculated with the NL-3 strain of BCMNV and the NL-4 strain of BCMV separately, and the plants were evaluated for the symptom appearance and tested by DAS-ELISA to confirm the presence or absence of the virus after three weeks of sap-inoculation. In the last part of the study, the resistance genes in bean genotypes were investigated by SCAR markers of SW-13 linked with the I gene and SBD-5 linked to bc-12. According to the phenotypic and molecular tests, out of 58 common bean genotypes tested, 37 involved the I gene, and seven and three genotypes contained bc-22 and bc-12 genes, respectively.
On impact of statistical estimates on precision of stochastic optimization
Authors: Volf Petr
Published: December 2022

This paper studies the consequences of imperfect information for the precision of stochastic optimization. In particular, it is assumed that the stochastic characteristics of an optimization problem depend on unknown parameters estimated from available data. First, a theoretical result is presented, showing that consistent parameters estimation leads to consistent optimization. Further, a type of the studied models is specified; it is assumed that the random variables present in the optimization problem are influenced by covariates. This influence is expressed via a parametric regression model, whose parameters have to be estimated and used instead of the unknown correct parameters values. The objective is then to explore, with the aid of simulations, the imprecision of the optimization based on these estimates. Several types of regression models are recalled, the variability of estimates and the related precision of sub-optimal solutions is studied in detail on an example dealing with optimal maintenance. The impact of random right-censoring on the deterioration of precision is studied as well.
