BACKGROUND

While introducing new technologies and methods of treatment of T1DM it seems essential to monitor whether modern technologies in diabetes treatment may improve the psychological, emotional status of the patients.

OBJECTIVE

To assess the baseline psychological parameters of the T1DM patients included into the study of the direct transition from Multiple Daily Injections (MDI) and Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose (BGM) to the MiniMed™ 780G Advanced Hybrid Closed Loop (AHCL) and to evaluate changes in the psychological well-being and quality of life after the transition in these individuals versus control group.

METHODS

The trial was a two-center, randomized controlled, parallel group study. 41 T1DM patients managed with MDI/BGM were enrolled and randomized either to AHCL or MDI/BGM groups. 37 participants (age 40.3±8.0 years; duration of diabetes 17.3 ± 12.1 years; HbA1c 7.2 ± 1.0%) completed the study (20 in AHCL and 17 in the MDI/BGM groups). Psychological parameters (the level of stress, coping mechanisms, level of anxiety, self-efficacy level, acceptance of illness, locus of control of the illness, life satisfaction, quality of life) were measured at baseline and at the end of the study using 10 psychological questionnaires.

RESULTS

Study participants’ general level of stress was higher than in general population (p=0.001), their coping strategies were significantly more effective and they had significantly higher level of self-efficacy (p<0.001). Participants accept more their illness than patients with diabetes from general population (p<0.001) but they feel their health does not depend on them as much as in general population (p<0.001). The overall life satisfaction was similar to general population (p=0.161)
The AHCL group reported an increase in their QoL in 4 scales: Feeling well (p=0.042); Working (p=0.012); Eating as I would like (p=0.011); Doing normal things p=0.0343). The level of anxiety decreased in AHCL group STAI1 scores (p=0.009), STAI 1 stens (p=0.013); STAI 2 scores (p=0.022). The AHCL group became more emotion-oriented when in stressful situation CISS E (0.043) and significantly less tend to self-blame after three months of the study (p=0.020).

CONCLUSIONS

The results indicate that transitioning from MDI/BGM treatment to AHCL in patients naïve to technology may significantly improve psychological well-being and quality of life of the patients within 3 months. The rapidity of these changes suggests that they may be related to the significant improvement in glycemic outcomes.
DILEMA SOSIAL DALAM THE SOCIAL DILEMMA Analisis Naratif atas Absennya Wawasan Kewargaan dalam Film The Social Dilemma
Authors: Adiputra Wisnu Martha
Published: October 2022

In general, the present narrative related to social media is its positive contribution to society. Social media is considered to contribute to a balanced relationship between the state, industry and citizens. Social media is assumed to improve a truly citizen-focused democracy. However, there is a different narrative in the docudrama film entitled The Social Dilemma. This film tells the story that social media as a product of a large information and communication technology company has a negative impact on society because their main goal is to make as much profit as possible. This research aims to analyze the narrative brought by a film that is different from the mainstream narrative. By using the narrative analysis method, it is found that this film has its own dilemma because in the end it is found in this film that civic insight tends to be inadequate or even absent from the narrative under study. It was found that there are four distinct social dilemmas in The Social Dilemma film, namely dilemmas in the aspects of character and characterization, series in the narrative, narrative plot, and the end point of the narrative. Real and fictional characters provide dilemmas for each element in the narrative that do not bring up civil society as the final form of citizens, the series in the narrative shows dilemmas in problem solving by citizens, linear and parallel plots create dilemmas in the narrative over the relationship between issues, the public, and citizens. The last dilemma is the presence of the state that replaces citizens as a dilemma at the end of the narrative, which shows the most unique dilemma of the content that actually provides an alternative narrative

ABSTRACTTo recover from Covid-19 crisis, Indonesia needs to get the supports and confidence from the society, especially millennials as the backbone of the workfoces. The support can be done by implementing the effective communication strategies towards economic recovery programs. This policy research has intended to identify the available alternatives of policy communication strategies to fill the communication gap in disseminating economic recovery program to working millennials through big data analytic. Twitter has been chosen to illustrate the communication gap in terms of content messaging and communication actors between policy communicators and netizens, who represent millenials. Content/text analysis and social network analysis have been used to identify the problems and explore the options to solve the gap. The main findings showed that there was a gap between messages disseminated by policymakers and demanded information from netizens. Moreover, policy communication actors have been dominated by public institutions and ministries within a = 0.05, centering on Ministry of Finance, while the presences of other desired key players were still lower than expected.Keywords: economic recovery program/policies, millennials, communication gap, social media analytics, Twitter, content/text analysis, social network analysis ABSTRAKUntuk dapat pulih dari krisis Covid-19, Indonesia perlu memperoleh dukungan dan kepercayaan dari masyarakat, khususnya generasi milenial sebagai tulang punggung tenaga kerja muda.

Democratic regression in Indonesia: Police and low-capacity democracy in Jokowi's administration (2014–2020)
Authors: Nuraini Siregar Sarah , Raffiudin Riaty , Noor Firman
Published: October 2022

Discussions about democratisation have often revolved around the strengthening or weakening phenomenon/notion of democracy. This research is a continuation of previous studies on democratic regression in Indonesia. Charles Tilly (2007) examined democratic regression from democracy and de-democratization theory through the concept of low-capacity democracy. Tilly's perspective argues a low-capacity democratic process occurred during the Joko Widodo administration in Indonesia from 2014 to 2020 when the state implemented the Police as a political instrument to maintain power. As a result, the character of the Police deviated from democratic principles, leading to a problem for police professionalism. The study employs qualitative methods, in which the primary data is obtained from in-depth interviews with several key informants. The secondary data is gathered from scientific works of literature and news in online media. This study indicates how low-capacity democracy developed through: first, the Indonesian regime's intervention and exercise of control by involving and appointing police officers to civilian positions; second, police repression against civil liberties; and third, the Police's justification for their authority and power. Thus, this study confirms Tilly's argument that a low-capacity democratic process occurs when democratic countries pursue undemocratic methods by manipulating the Police as an instrument to strengthen the power of the regime. The recommendation of this study is to strengthen democracy in terms of law enforcement by the supervision of parliament and supervisory institutions to retain the Police’s role as an independent law enforcement institution.
Implementing Implicit EIL: Design, Practice, and Its Effect
Authors: Saito Arifumi , Heo Younghyon
Published: October 2022

In this study, we design and implement an implicit EIL (English as an International Language) activity to raise EFL learners' awareness of EIL without explicitly teaching it. We investigate whether the implicit EIL activity can 1) foster EFL learners' positive attitudes toward "non-native" varieties of English, including their own, and 2) promote their willingness to learn about other cultures, which is required to increase intercultural competence (IC). We created an intercultural communicative activity in which EFL learners from seven different expanding-circle countries can learn about different cultures by focusing on three distinct components of culture. This activity took place over four class meetings in an English course at a Japanese college. After the four intercultural communication sessions, a survey was conducted to examine the Japanese EFL learners' ideas about EIL, Japanese English, and their willingness to learn about other cultures. We also collected some feedback from them about the effectiveness of our activity. The findings suggest that implicit EIL is less effective than explicit EIL in nurturing positive attitudes toward non-native Englishes, with the implication that implicit EIL can be implemented as a preliminary activity before explicit EIL. Implicit EIL, while not resulting in wide acceptance of EIL or "non-native" Englishes, could nonetheless motivate participants to learn about other cultures, and they considered our activity to help do so.

Published: October 2022

Abstract: With the advent of technological marvels like global digitization, the prediction of the stock market has entered a technologically advanced era, revamping the old model of trading. With the ceaseless increase in market capitalization, stock trading has become a center of investment for many financial investors.Many analysts and researchers have developed tools and techniques that predict stock price movements and help investors in proper decision-making. Advanced trading models enable researchers to predict the market using non-traditional textual data from social platforms. The application of advanced machine learning approaches such as text data analytics and ensemble methods have greatly increased the prediction accuracies. Meanwhile, the analysis and prediction of stock markets continue to be one of the most challenging research areas due to dynamic, erratic, and chaotic data. This study explains the systematics of machine learning-based approaches for stock market prediction based on the deployment of a generic framework. Findings from the last decade (2011–2021) were critically analyzed, having been retrieved from online digital libraries and databases like ACM digital library and Scopus. Furthermore, an extensive comparative analysis was carried out to identify the direction of significance. The study would be helpful for emerging researchers to understand the basics and advancements of this emerging area, and thus carry-on further research in promising directions.

Published: October 2022

Abstract: Nowadays, an image caption generator has become the need of the hour, be it for social media enthusiasts or visually impaired people. It can be used as a plugin in currently trending social media platforms to recommend suitable captions for people to attach to their post or can be used by visually impaired people to understand the image content on the web thus eradicating any ambiguity in image meaning in turn also free of any discrepancy in knowledge acquisition. The proposed paper aims to generate a description of an image also called as image captioning, using CNN-LSTM architecture such that CNN layers will help in extraction of the input data and LSTM will extract relevant information throughout the processing of input such that the current word acts as an input for the prediction of the next word. The programming language used will be Python 3 and machine learning techniques. This paper will also elaborate on the functions and structure of the various Neural networks involved.

Busan Metropolitan City introduced a pre-feasibility review system that utilizes the residential maintenance index without designating a newly planned area through the 「2030 Busan Metropolitan City Urban and Residential Environment Renovation Basic Plan」 announced in December 2019. After two years have elapsed, this study was conducted to suggest problems and improvement plans for the pre-feasibility review system. In order to protect business operators and not damage the public nature, problems and improvement measures were derived through case analysis and in-depth interview with experts. As a result of the analysis, the importance of problems to be improved the 1st priority is to change the date of calculation of rights for prior feasibility review, the 2nd priority is to implement the procedure by combining the preliminary feasibility study and the designation of the maintenance area. The 3rd priority is the designation of qualification requirements for the pre-feasibility review business agency. The 4th priority is the stipulation of the components of the redevelopment promotion committee and the scope of work. The 5th priority is to newly establish the redevelopment project integration support group. Through the improvement of these systems, the rights and private interests of the redevelompment association should be protected, and the urban reorganization project should be activated in a direction that expands without damaging the public interest.

Published: October 2022

The purpose of this study is to examine the legal issues in terms of Urban Development System driven by the PPP (Public-Private Partnership) and then suggest improvement measures, based on the lessons from Pangyo Daejang Development Project. First, the land development with the condemnation of private properties should be allowed for the public entities in a strictly limited manner. Second, it is needed to regulate how the plotted lots are provided to the home builders and how they are evaluated, desirably following the precedents of Land Development Projects. Third, an independent third-party watchdog is a feasible alternative to control the issues concerning the choice of private partners and the documentation of projects. Fourth, the guidelines not to merge the heterogeneous projects must be stipulated to screen the Joint Developments.
A Study on Model Selection Using Multiple Criterion Functions and Application of Spatial Regression Models in Regression Analysis: Empirical analysis of factors affecting population growth rate in 10 cities in Chungcheong region

Variables selected according to the information criteria (AIC, BIC, Mallow's Cp) used for model selection were also different. These results show that a concise and explainable model can be different depending on the selected variables, so it is necessary to approach carefully with various criteria and methods rather than one or two variable selection criteria when selecting a model. The variables selected were different according to the criteria when selecting the model, showing that the parsimonious & explainable models may also vary depending on the selected variable, so it is necessary to approach carefully with various criteria and methods rather than one or two variable selection criteria when selecting a model. When multi-collinearity does not exist or is relatively low, the result of sequential variable selection by the Stepwise Regression Analysis Methods and by the All Possible Regression Methods using multiple criterion functions was not different. It is necessary to make a judgment based on the researcher’s expertise, theory, and previous research results rather than relying on an automatic variable selection method. The manufacturing industry, which requires labor in various fields, creates employment opportunities and provides a pleasant urban environment, such as the ratio of new housing. Therefore, local governments need continuous efforts to create quality jobs and improve the urban environment in order to block the outflow of population from local cities and promote regional economic development and population growth.
Cosmogonoeschatological and Easter archetypes in the work of Daniil Kharms in the 1930s
Authors: Korneev Alexander V.
Published: October 2022

The research is devoted to the dynamics of D.I. Kharms’ creativity in the 1930s: if his early work functions in accordance with the ideas of the cosmogonomeschatological archetype, then later he turns to the Easter archetype, especially in the story “The Old Woman” (1939), which can be described as the final point of abandonment of the avant-garde. The goal is to show the process of Kharms's transition from the cosmic-eschatological to the Easter archetype. This process in the work of Kharms is described for the first time. The research material is Kharms' works of the 1930s. The methodology is determined by modern theoretical ideas about the categories of archetype and myth. The transition from the cosmogonoeschatological archetype to the Easter archetype begins in the work of Kharms with the story “Morning” (1931), where Kharms focuses on describing everyday life, while the main motive in the story becomes the motive of waiting for a miracle that will never happen. This story differs from the previous works of Kharms and shows the writer's departure from the positions of his own philosophical treatises of 1927-1931 and from the type of thinking characteristic of the avant-garde - the cosmic-eschatological archetype. This leads to the destruction of the myth in his work as a picture of the world that explains the world, leads to the formation of a plot of doubt, the functioning of which leads to total incoherence and disunity in his poetics. The result is the story “The Old Woman,” in which the archetype of Easter is actualized, as a result of which the spiritual revival of the hero associated with the appeal to God takes place.
Russophone literature
Authors: Nefedova Nadezhda I.
Published: October 2022

According to the papers of late 20th and early 21st centuries devoted to the belles-lettres written in Russian, a term “Russian literature” or “Russian-language literature” is used along with another term “Russophone literature.” The different understandings of the word “Russophonia” are presented, the views of scientists on the spatial and temporal boundaries of this phenomenon are studied. Additionally, the author provides and analyzes various classifications that allow the users to determine the text corpus attributable to the Russophone literature, as well as the place of this literature in the modern literary process. Based on the study of relevant works by both domestic and foreign scientists, it was concluded that the term of Russophonia dated back to the times of the Russian Empire's colonial expansion in Central Asia and the Caucasus. The development of national literatures and the ideology of people's friendship during the Soviet period, the collapse of the Soviet Union (when people living in one state became the citizens of different countries) contributed to the development and widespread dissemination of Russophonia. This phenomenon, as well as the Russophone literature, is not limited to the geographical boundaries of the states. It can be also assumed that the “Russophone literature” is fairly synonymous with the expression “Russian-language literature.” Still, the use of the “Russophone literature” is considered to be the most suitable and reasonable in relation to the modern Russian-language literature since, according to a number of researchers, it has no ethnical, political and geographical correlation. It is more neutral and harmonious (for example, when translated into English).
Cubo-futuristic poetics in the poem “Night” by V. Mayakovsky in the interpretation of Chinese translators
Authors: Liu Chao , Kuzmishcheva Natalya M.
Published: October 2022

The futuristic poetics of V. Mayakovsky's work received the attention of researchers in China only at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. The Chinese reader owes the discovery of Mayakovsky as a lyrical poet of a futuristic persuasion to the skill of translators. A characteristic feature of cubo-futuristic poetics, which focuses on the principles of abstract painting, is fragmentation, instability, elusiveness of meaning, which, on the one hand, presents a great difficulty for adequate translation of such information by means of another language, on the other hand, gives the translator freedom in interpreting the suggestive content of the text. The authors provide a comparative analysis of the translations of Wang Feibai and Zheng Zheng of V. Mayakovsky's poem “Night” into Chinese in order to identify the subjective image of the perceived text, which is formed during the relaying of artistic information into translation. The study of translations helps to identify previously unspoken meanings in the pretext, which enriches the perception of the original.
Russian formalists and Russian literature
Authors: Berezhnaya Yekaterina P.
Published: October 2022

Russian literature of the present day has lost its statehood and no longer pretends to build its own laws of development in the historical movement. The “dictatorship of art” predicted by the formalists, intended for the total textuality of Russian culture, turned out to be a predominantly optimistic slogan that has lost its stimulating function in the context of living literary reality. The research is devoted to the problem of interaction of Russian literature and formalism. Russian literature in the works of Russian formalists was considered as an autonomously existing system structure that simulates a “different” reality, independent of social and political conditions. The movement of literature in a functional perspective determined the activities and tasks of the so-called “formal school” mainly represented by Viktor Shklovsky, Boris Eikhenbaum and Yury Tynyanov.
Mimetic desire, competition between father and son and traumatic experience in Ivan Turgenev’s novella “First Love”
Authors: Lipke Stephan
Published: October 2022

Ivan Turgenev’s novella “First Love” in the light of the Oedipus conflict is studied. But it’s done not according to S. Freud’s conception, in which erotic desire is the starting point and crucial aspect of the conflict between father and son. Rather, it interprets the way it is understood by Freud’s heirs S. Ferenczi and J.M. Masson, and even more in the light of R. Girard’s culturology. Thus, what is crucial for the author is the competitive conflict in itself, which only in a second step leads to father and son desiring the same woman. Nevertheless, some symbols that might play a role in Freud’s psychoanalytic observations are impor- tant for as well. Among these symbols are the jacket fit for children which his mother forces Vladimir to wear in Zinaida’s presence, Vladimir’s hair torn out by Zinaida, the knife with which Vladimir wanted to kill his rival but which he drops, the fact that Vladimir’s father rides on horseback better than Vladimir, and the whip with which the father beats Zinaida. To our point of view, the starting point of the plot is that Vladimir’s parents do not care for him. This is a trauma for the young man and the origin of an erotic rivalry for his father. When Vladimir discovers that Zinaida is his father’s lover and, even more, that they are unhappy in their relationship, this becomes a profound trauma for the young man, one could even say, it symbolically castrates him. Later on, he is not able to love or to overcome circumstances in order to reach his aims. He rather somehow goes on instead of living. For example, he does not marry.
The Soviet Union in two Arab novels
Authors: Suvorov Mikhail N.
Published: October 2022

The study aims to analyze the representation of the Soviet Union in two Arab novels, “Ice” (2011) by Egyptian Sun‘allah Ibrahim and “Time of the Red Reed Pipe” (2012) by Kuwaiti Thurayya al-Baqsami. Within the vast expanse of the Arab “emigrant” literature one can find relatively few works of fiction that have to do with the USSR despite the fact that in the 1960-1980s thousands of Arab students studied in the country. Among a couple dozen Arab writers who wrote some fiction about the USSR very few spent more than a couple of months in the country, and their works, as a rule, present idealized and rather superficial images of the Soviet Union. Unlike these authors, Sun‘allah Ibrahim and Thurayya al-Baqsami spent in the 1970s quite a long time in Moscow in the status of ordinary students, and for this reason their novels present a much more realistic picture of the Soviet Union. Without any noticeable warmth towards their Soviet hosts, the writers consider many negative features of Soviet social and economic life as commodity shortage, low quality of Soviet goods and services, illegal currency operations, etc. The two authors’ representations of the Soviet Union stand in contrast to the Soviet’s own idea of how the people from the developing countries perceived the “country of victorious socialism.”

The article presents theoretical overview of scientific approaches to the study of «social ideas» as a fundamental construct of sociology and related sciences and the results of their sociological measurement among the schoolchildren of the Khabarovsk territory. Genesis of the concept «social representations» (social representations), which has its origins in scientific views and conceptual justifications from the classics of social sciences (sociology, social psychology, etc.) to modern domestic and foreign researchers, reflects both its high significance and the complexity of interpretation and empirical measurement. The methodological analysis of the main scientific approaches to the study of this construct gives reason for the authors to widely use them as the basis for the sociological measurement of social ideas of students in general education schools.The empirical results of sociological surveys obtained by the authors indicate that the school education system forms collective social ideas of students as stable education of ideas, views, values and knowledge, having the central cores of representation, based on quantitative and qualitative indicators. Their sociological measurement testifies to the content and objectification of social ideas regarding study, educational and professional plans, migration moods. The authors consider it expedient to use the presented results of sociological measurement of social ideas of schoolchildren to develop measures to improve state educational policy, primarily in the formation of a value-motivation attitude (meanings and images) to study, the choice of profession, place of work in the regional labor market and other life plans.

The current specifics of socio-economic processes is the phenomenon of human-centeredness. It is shown how the phenomenon of human-centeredness represents in the sphere of economy, politics, social system and in the governing processes of the state power. Transition of public relations to a new quality led to constitutional reforms in the Russian Federation. The law No. 1-FCL «On improving the regulation of certain issues of organization and functioning of public authority» dated March 14, 2020 initiated amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation and introduced the rules on human development in the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The processes of constitutional changes have formalized a qualitatively new social contract - an agreement between the people and the public authorities, based on the priority of human development. The constitutional requirements initiated legislative changes in the regional legislation. The paper presents experience of the Khabarovsk region in preparation and adoption of a new edition of the Regional Statute, the results of organization and expert support of this activity in 2022. An important result is affirmation in the regional statute of socio-economic policy that is practically significant for the work of the regional public authorities. The article was prepared on the basis of a system-dynamic methodology, principles of the theory of economic dynamics, the theory of post-industrial development, and the theory of system transformations. Results of the study are recommended for use in the regional public authorities.
Sino-Russian humanitarian cooperation: state, problems and prospects
Authors:   The Institute of Russia of the Academy of Social Sciences, Bai Xiaoguang
Published: October 2022

Sino-Russian cultural cooperation is an integral part of development of the Sino-Russian bilateral relations, which together with the political mutual trust, economic and trade cooperation constitute the three pillars of Sino-Russian relations. Over the past 30 years, China and Russia have made remarkable achievements in exchanges and cooperation in the field of humanities exchanges. In particular, after China's «Belt and Road» initiative was put forward, new breakthroughs have been made in the areas of bilateral humanities cooperation and in the regions participating in cooperation. They are playing an increasingly important role in promoting mutual understanding between the two nations and consolidating China-Russia relations. At the same time, the unbalanced development of the region, the lack of close contact with economic and trade cooperation, the lack of innovation in individual fields, and the lack of systematization of relevant strategic research also restrict the in-depth development of Sino-Russian cultural cooperation. In 2019, China-Russia relations were upgraded to a «New Era comprehensive strategic partnership of Coordination». Humanities exchanges were listed as one of the five key areas of bilateral relations. Under the influence of the new global epidemic in 2020, the China-Russia cultural and humanities exchanges met new challenges, new opportunities and new missions. But there are broad prospects for cooperation.

Development of any territorial system is the resulting dynamics of its compo-nents – in the case of the regions of the Russian Federation – its constituent municipalities. It is at this level that economic agents and residents directly come into contact with the results of state policy to create favorable conditions for doing business and comfortable living. Comparative studies of socio-economic dynamics on a municipal region make it possible to identify territories with similar development characteristics, which forms a rationale for the implementation of targeted regional policy measures in relation to specific groups of territories. The article presents an overview of publications on the issues of assessing the socio-economic development of municipalities, and substantiates a need to develop our own approach. Based on the attributes of local backwardness such as lagging behind in development from the other similar territories, stable negative economic dynamics; lack of conditions and opportunities for endogenous development, the author's methodology of comparative assessment of the level of socio-economic development of municipalities is proposed. The logic of building a system of indicators is presented, in accordance with which three areas of assessment (“the state of the economy”, “economic dynamics”, “conditions for maintaining human potential”) are identified. The selection of indicators is substantiated in the context of limited statistical data at the municipal level, and an approach for calculating integral indicators for each of the areas of assessment is given. An approach has been formed to the grouping of municipalities depending on the degree of manifestation of local backwardness. This grouping can serve as a basis for determining directions and instruments of selective regional policy for the territories with different levels of development.
A Study on Leverage Buyout and Business Judgment Rule
Authors:   Wonkwang University Legal Research Institute has, LIM Jaihun
Published: October 2022

Since the Supreme Court's conviction on collateral type Leveraged Buy-Out in 2010, There has been much debate about criminal sanctions over borrowing.
LBO, a financial method of borrowing money from outside, has two aspects. One is to increase the efficiency of the target company's operation, and the other is that the buyer does not bear the risk arising from M&A process because the acquisition fund of the company's acquirer is transferred to the target company.
In response, LBO is a simple financial technique that raises acquisition funds, and it is argued that it is not desirable to impose criminal sanctions to ensure management's creative activities because the risks arising in the process are general risks accompanying corporate activities.
However, the core of criminal punishment for LBO is not the illegality of financial techniques that acquire and merge companies with other people's capital, but that it cannot be allowed to transfer loan to Target company in the M&A process.
On the other hand, it is not reasonable to apply the crime of breach based on the trust relationship between the modern monarch and the lord to today's management activities. In addition, it is difficult to function as an entrepreneur's norm because the constituent requirements of the crime of breach are unclear. And management is bound to be very adventurous, but it is not reasonable to punish it criminally.
However, while the crime of breach is applied to individual transactions, it is not equal to deny the crime of breach only for management activities. Breach is an efficient means in that it requires minimum ethics and order in company management. In addition, there is no reason to deny the application of breach of trust to LBO, considering that standards have been established to limit the constitutional requirements for breach of trust.
The precedent also takes the position that whether or not LBO is guilty of breach of trust should be judged individually depending on whether the act meets the constituent requirements of breach of trust in the M&A process.
However, in the judgment of LBO's breach of trust, the punishment is determined based on whether the company is damaged or not without a specific judgment on the violation of duty of care by management or intention. In other words, breach of trust is judged based on whether profits to offset losses are provided to the target company. There is a risk that this will not be interpreted as a crime without damage to the company. Therefore, it is desirable to judge the punishment for LBO in detail in connection with the constituent requirements of the crime of breach.
El águila y el haz de flechas: el espionaje de Estados Unidos al falangismo en el Río de la Plata, 1941-1944
Authors: Lvovich Daniel
Published: October 2022

Based on sources available in the National Archives of the United States, this book analyzes the espionage that the FBI and other North American agencies deployed on the actions of the Falange in Hispanic America, particularly in Argentina and Uruguay. This archive has allowed us, on the one hand, to reconstruct, in dialogue with the not too extensive bibliography available, the public and clandestine action of the Spanish Falange in Argentina and Uruguay through the action of its agents, of the ways in which they were linked with the official Spanish diplomacy and the actions aimed at spreading publicity and gaining influence in the emigrated Spanish communities, during the first five years of the 1940s. The information provided by US espionage constitutes a very valuable source to account for these processes, beyond the deformations, inaccuracies or errors that we have been able to detect. On the other hand, we seek to understand the ways in which, in particular, the FBI constructed its information on the Falange, contrasting it with the knowledge that historiographical research has provided on different cases, in order to account for the distortions and prejudices that influenced their analysis. Of course, this task requires a particularly critical reading of American sources which, as has recently been shown, cannot be considered apart from their blind spots, namely anti-communism – which contaminated their views on right-wing groups about who should inform – and the competition between agencies that caused information to be distorted or exaggerated according to the convenience of the subjects and organizations involved.

Severe aplastic anemia (SAA) is caused by immune-mediated destruction.
Standard immunosuppressive therapy (IST) is effective, but needs to be
improved. A total of 115 patients (60 males; median age of 5.77 years
and median follow-up time of 45 months) were enrolled in this historical
control study. The complete response (CR) rates in the eltrombopag group
were 30.3% at 3 months, 50.0% at 6 months, conpared to 8.2% at 3
months, 10.2% at 6 months in the control group. There were significant
differences between the two groups at 3 months and 6 months after IST.
The overall response rates in the two groups showed no significant
differences during the study. There were significant differences in the
times separated from granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF)
G-CSF, red blood cell transfusion and Platelet transfusion between the
two groups. Overall survival rates were 97.0% in the eltrombopag group
and 96.0% in the control group (P=0.998). In the eltrombopag group
10.2% cases relapsed compared to 4.1% in the control group (P=0.703).
No case progressed to myelodysplastic syndrome or myeloid leukemia in
the eltrombopag group; one patient (2.0%) progressed to myelodysplastic
syndrome in the control group. Totally 11 patients (16.7%) showed
myeloid gene mutations in the eltrombopag group. Event-free survival
(EFS) was 66.6% in the eltrombopag group and 57.1% in the control
group. There were no significant differences in EFS between the two
groups (P=0.967). In the eltrombopag group the common adverse reactions
were transient and reversible hyperbilirubinemia, elevated liver
enzymesand hyperuricemia.
A Virtual Resistance Optimization Method Based on Hybrid Index in Low-Voltage Microgrid
Authors: Yifei Yin , Xinwei Yu
Published: October 2022

The introduction of virtual resistance can effectively suppress the
circulating current between microsources and improve power allocation in
low-voltage microgrid, but it also causes the voltage deviation of
microsources’ inverters. An optimization method of virtual resistance
based on hybrid index is proposed in order to suppress circulating
current and improve voltage deviation at the same time in this paper.
The gradient descent method is used to design the virtual resistance
optimization process, aiming at the optimization of hybrid index
composed of circulating current and voltage deviation. The constraints
are deduced with power quality requirements, capacity limitation and
static stability, and then virtual resistance values are optimized. The
effects of switching load and microsource on the optimization results
are analyzed through the simulation of low-voltage microgrid, and the
simulation results show that the virtual resistance optimization method
can significantly suppress circulating current while improving power
quality.
Natural language and formal methods
Authors: Zoric Aleksandra
Published: October 2022

Philosophical problems concerning language are as old as the philosophy
itself. The works of Frege, Russell and Tarski brought the philosophy of
language closer to modern logic. Formal methods found in logic together with
structural analysis of the natural languages we owe to the work of Chomsky
and his school form the backbone of formal semantics, fertile discipline
that has significantly improved our understanding of the mechanisms on which
natural languages rest. We will discuss whether and to what extent formal
methods have been incorporated in the modern philosophy of language, as well
as the possible reasons that led to it.
Does psychoanalysis have scientific potential? Testing psychoanalytic hypotheses
Authors: Jevtic Srdjan
Published: October 2022

The main goal of this paper is to analyze the (pseudo)scientific status of
psychoanalysis and identifying methodological problems of testing
psychoanalytic hypotheses. After considering the scientific and hermeneutic
reception of psychoanalysis, we see the future of psychoanalysis in
methodological pluralism as a research method that bridges the gap between
the two mentioned traditions.
Mono no aware concept in Japanese aesthetics
Authors: Calovic Dragan
Published: October 2022

Although, until the nineteenth century, we could not find in Japanese thought
an approach that would be considered a counterpart to Western aesthetics, in
art and cultural practice, nuanced interpretations of aesthetic experiences
have been developed, such as wabi sabi, mono no aware and ma. The term mono
no aware refers to impermanent, that is, transient beauty, ie. her
experience that does not arise on the basis of current sensory experience.
This concept should be understood as an aesthetic experience that accepts
the beauty of transience, although transience itself cannot be considered
beautiful. Mono no aware, is not the emotional response to the rational
judgment of transience, but the feeling that permeates us when we become
aware of sensory experience with the knowledge of transience. This, however,
is not about any sensory experience, but only one in which we find beauty.
Hence, the concept of mono no aware remains inseparable from the experience
of the beautiful, but it is not equated with it.
The Impact of Client Response Time and Message Processing Fluency on Staff Auditor Judgment
Authors: Bhattacharjee Sudip , Moreno Kimberly K. , Wright Nicole S.
Published: October 2022

Staff auditors frequently email clients to conduct evidence inquiry. However, little research has examined how characteristics of email communication impact auditors’ assessments of evidence. We experimentally investigate whether two characteristics of email communication, client response time and message processing fluency, influence auditors’ judgments. We find that auditor skepticism is reduced when the client provides a more fluent email response compared with a less fluent response in a moderate response time. In addition, auditor skepticism is reduced when the client provides a more fluent email response in a moderate response time versus in an immediate response time. Our results suggest that if client management takes their time to respond to an auditor’s email, then this may reduce auditor skepticism, especially if the client composes a fluent response. These findings have audit quality implications because the same client information provided via email can be perceived differently depending on other client communication characteristics.
