Published: May 2024

Tindak pidana perdagangan orang khususnya terhadap perempuan, telah meluas dalam bentuk jaringan kejahatan baik terorganisasi maupun tidak terorganisasi. Tindak pidana perdagangan orang bahkan melibatkan tidak hanya perorangan tetapi juga korporasi dan penyelenggara negara yang menyalahgunakan wewenang dan kekuasaannya. Jaringan pelaku tindak pidana perdagangan orang memiliki jangkauan operasi tidak hanya antar wilayah dalam negeri tetapi juga antar negara. Perlindungan hukum korban kejahatan sebagai bagian dari perlindungan masyarakat, model dapat diwujudkan dalam berbagai bentuk, seperti: Pemberian Restitusi dan Kompensasi, Pelayanan medis, dan Bantuan hukum. Ganti rugi adalah sesuatu yang diberikan kepada pihak yang menderita kerugian sepadan dengan memperhitungkan kerusakan yang dideritanya. Perbedaan antar Kompensasi dan Restitusi adalah: Kompensasi timbul dari permintaan korban, dan dibayar oleh masyarakat atau merupakan bentuk pertanggungjawaban masyarakat atau Negara (The Responsible of the society), sedangkan Restitusi lebih bersifat pidana, yang timbul dari putusan pengadilan pidana dan dibayar oleh terpidana atau merupakan wujud pertanggungjawaban terpidana. Bentuk perlindungan tersebut terbagi atas: a. Perlindungan yang bersifat Abstrak (tidak langsung) yaitu: bentuk perlindungan yang hanya bisa dinikmati atau dirasakan secara emosional (psikis), seperti rasa puas, b. Perlindungan yang bersifat Konkrit (langsung) yaitu: bentuk perlindungan yang dapat dinikmati secara nyata yaitu dalam bentuk materi maupun non materi.

Renovating House Church Assumptions
Authors: McGrath Jonathan
Published: May 2024

Missiologists have often claimed that early Christian house churches could not have surpassed 15-30 people. The argument often centers on two prongs—persecution and space. Persecution kept house churches relatively small to avoid visibility. The size of Greco-Roman houses kept churches relatively small due to space limitations. For some missiologists, these limitations became advantageous and led to rapid multiplication as the church grew "sideways." This article questions both of these assumptions and instead provides evidence that early Christian churches could and did embrace several models based on their particular context.

A withering educational advantage? The effect of educational expansion among parents on the academic achievement of children with university-educated parents
Authors: Valdés Manuel T. , Bernardi Fabrizio , Lievore Ilaria
Published: May 2024

Extensive research has examined the effect of educational expansion in one cohort on educational inequality and occupational returns in that same cohort. This study makes a novel contribution by exploring whether the expansion of university education among parents affects their children’s academic achievement. We argue that expansion reduces the selectivity of university attainment, making graduates progressively less selected on traits relevant to their children’s achievement. Additionally, expansion likely diminishes occupational returns to the university degree, increasing the proportion of overqualified university-graduated parents. Consequently, the average achievement of children from university-educated families should diminish with the expansion among parents (withering advantage hypothesis). Using data from 30 countries across seven waves of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), we show that students from university-educated families experience a notable decline in achievement as the proportion of university-educated parents increases. Importantly, the growing overqualification of university-educated parents and the diminishing objectified cultural capital of university-educated families mediate this negative effect. Furthermore, we also observe a negative association between educational expansion among parents and children’s achievement in non-university-educated families, but less pronounced, resulting in a negative (albeit modest) association between expansion among parents and inequality among children.

Perceptual Cue Weighting Matters in Real-Time Integration of Acoustic Information During Spoken Word Recognition
Authors: Kim Hyoju , Tremblay Annie , Cho Taehong
Published: May 2024

This study investigates whether listeners’ cue weighting predicts their real-time processing of asynchronous acoustic information as the speech signal unfolds over time. It does so by testing the time course of acoustic cue integration in the processing of Seoul Korean stop contrasts by native listeners. The current study further tests whether listeners’ cue weighting is associated with cue integration at the individual level. Seoul Korean listeners’ (n = 62) perceptual weightings of voice onset time (VOT, available earlier in time) and onset fundamental frequency of the following vowel (F0, available later in time) to perceive Korean stop contrasts were measured with a speech perception task (Experiment 1), and the timing of VOT integration in lexical access was examined with a visual-world eye-tracking task (Experiment 2). The group results revealed that the timing of VOT integration is predicted by listeners’ reliance on F0, with delayed integration of VOT in target-competitor pairs where F0 is a primary cue to process the stop contrast. At the individual level, listeners who relied more on F0 than on VOT showed later integration of VOT, further elucidating the relationship between cue weighting and the time course of cue integration. These results suggest that listeners’ real-time processing of asynchronous acoustic information in lexical activation is modulated by the informativeness of perceptual cues. As such, this study provides a nuanced perspective for a better understanding of listeners’ moment-by-moment processing of acoustic information in spoken word recognition.
Reasoning about Actual Causation in Reversible and Irreversible Causal Structures
Authors: Stephan Simon
Published: May 2024

This article investigates people’s judgments of actual causation in the context of a previously neglected property of causal structures—their reversibility, that is, whether an effect persists or returns to its original state if its causes are removed. Causal reversibility, and its potential impact on causal judgment, was recently analyzed theoretically by Ross and Woodward (2022). They hypothesized that reversibility might affect people’s evaluation of causes in late-preemption scenarios. The typical finding in preemption scenarios is that events happening earlier are considered to be actual causes, while events happening later are regarded as non-causes. The hypothesis is that this robust intuition depends on causal reversibility and that in reversible structures later events are regarded as actual causes. Across three main experiments and one supplementary study (N = 590), it is shown that reversibility has the predicted effect: later causes are perceived to make an actual causal contribution to the effect. It is also shown that Henne et al. (2023), in a first study, did not find evidence for Ross and Woodward’s hypothesis because they did not test whether people regard later causes in preemption-like sequences of reversible structures as maintainers and not as triggers of their effect. Because they used test questions that asked explicitly for triggering rather than maintaining or were at least ambiguous, their results seemed to show that people think that later events have no causal impact. Maintaining is a relevant causal concept deserving more attention in both philosophical theories and psychological studies on causal cognition.
Advancements of Phonetics in the 21st century: Quantitative data analysis
Authors: Sonderegger Morgan , Soskuthy Marton
Published: May 2024

Phonetic research in the 21st century has relied heavily on quantitative analysis. This article reviews the evolution of common practices and the emergence of newer techniques. Using a detailed literature survey, we show that most work follows a mainstream, which has shifted from ANOVAs to mixed-effects regression models over time. Alongside this mainstream, we highlight the increasing use of a diverse methodological toolbox, especially Bayesian methods and dynamic methods, for which we provide comprehensive reviews. Bayesian methods, as well as frequentist methods beyond linear and logistic regression, offer flexibility in model specification, interpretation, and incorporation of prior knowledge. Dynamic methods, such as GAMs and functional data analysis, capture non-linear patterns in acoustic and articulatory data. Machine learning techniques, such as random forests, expand the questions and types of data phoneticians can analyze. We also discuss the growing importance of open science practices promoting replicability and transparency. We argue that the future lies in a diverse methodological toolbox, with techniques chosen based on research questions and data structure.
The Demos of the Democratic Firm
Authors: González-Ricoy Iñigo
Published: May 2024

Despite growing interest in workplace democracy, the question whether nonworker stakeholders, like suppliers and local communities, warrant inclusion in the governance of democratic companies, as workers do, has been largely neglected. We inspect this question by leaning on the boundary problem in democratic theory. We first argue that the question of who warrants inclusion in democratic workplaces is best addressed by examining why workplace democracy is warranted in the first place, and offer a twofold normative benchmark—addressing objectionable corporate power and upholding efficiency—to assess the principles of democratic inclusion on offer. Against this benchmark, we next argue that the All-Affected Principle is unfit due to its over- and underinclusive extensional results, and that the All-Subjected Principle, whose variants we examine alongside their extensional results, holds more promise when coupled with independent considerations of justice or a constrained variant of the All-Affected Principle. These combinations need not entirely preclude, but speak against, nonworker stakeholder inclusion.
Self-Employment and Independence
Authors: González-Ricoy Iñigo
Published: May 2024

Self-employment merits protection and promotion, we often hear, because it confers independence from a boss. But what, if anything, is wrong with having a boss? On one of the two views that this chapter inspects, being under the power of a boss is objectionable as such, no matter how suitably checked this power may be, for it undermines workers’ agency. On a second view, which republican theorists favor, what is objectionable is subjection not to the power of bosses as such but to their arbitrary, uncontrolled power. The first view is unconvincing, this chapter argues, as it entails (implausibly) that being under the power of others in realms like the family or the state is likewise objectionable as such. And although the second view yields compelling reasons for self-employment, it only does so when employers’ power is not suitably checked. When it is, such reasons are easily outweighed by competing considerations, like those stemming from the further forms of dependence—on suppliers and purchasers—that self-employment may prompt.

Incredible Contradiction between Liminality and Communitas in Nehru’s An Autobiography
Authors: Lamichhane Yog Raj
Published: May 2024

This paper examines An Autobiography of Jawaharlal Nehru focusing on the performativity of his liminality at Harrow and Cambridge in England from 1905 to 1912. Being separated from his family and nation, he got a higher education there. The concepts of liminality and communitas by Turner and the idea of the ‘rites of passage’ by van Gennep are used as theoretical bases for analyzing the autobiographical narrative. The analysis of the textual evidence responds to how Nehru, the icon of Indian political and economic modernity, performs in a liminal space of a foreign land and explores how and why the organicity between liminality and communitas as theoretically claimed does not work in the cases of his life-writing. The discussion then finally identifies the distinct economic status, multiple references to politics, diverse family legacy, and lack of ‘we feeling’ among the group members responsible for breaking the organic union between liminality and communitas and promoting an incredible contradiction. Fundamentally, this study supports perceiving the notions regarding the performance of the person in a liminal space. At the same time, it also assists in spotting the obstructive aspects behind the organic relation between the generally inseparable concepts of liminality and communitas in the customary rites of passage.
Customer Delight in Futsal of Pokhara Valley: A Narrative Study From the Customer Perspective
Authors: Koirala Aamod
Published: May 2024

Futsal is a popular sport in Nepal and futsal centers play an important role in providing opportunities for people to play and enjoy the game. This study explored the factors that contribute to customer delight in futsal centers in Pokhara. A narrative analysis of the stories of futsal participants identified three distinct themes: physical environment, social interaction and surprise and joy. The participants emphasized the importance of a safe and comfortable physical environment, as well as the opportunity to socialize with friends and meet new people. They were also surprised by some of the positive benefits of playing futsal, such as weight loss and improved sleep quality. Finally, they experienced joy from a variety of things, such as winning games, spending time with friends, and being recognized by others. The findings of this study suggest that futsal centers should focus on providing a safe and comfortable physical environment, fostering social interaction, and surprising and delighting customers with unexpected benefits. By doing so, futsal centers can attract and retain customers, build loyalty, and generate positive word-of-mouth.

Likewise, to explore the different aspects embedded with Mahalaxmi Jatra of Lubhu and to examine Mahalaxmi Jatra of Lubhu as an amazing cultural tourism product are the key objectives of the paper. In this paper both primary and secondary data and qualitative approach have been used and it is based on analytical and descriptive research design.
Cross-Cultural Influences in The Satanic Verses
Authors: Neupane Khagendra
Published: May 2024

The novel The Satanic Verses focuses on the cross-cultural influences and delves into the complexities of cultural hybridity by exploring the collision and blending of diverse traditions, identities, and belief systems. The narrative follows the intertwined lives of two Indian expatriates, Gibreel Farishta and Saladin Chamcha, who survive a terrorist attack on their flight from Bombay to London. Following the miraculous survival, the characters experience a series of surreal and fantastical transformations, blurring the lines between reality and myth. Rushdie's novel is renowned for its exploration of cultural syncretism, where elements of Eastern and Western cultures converge and coalesce. The characters navigate between different cultural landscapes, grappling with questions of identity, belonging, and the clash of civilizations. The narrative traverses various historical and geographical contexts, including India, Britain, and the Islamic world, highlighting the interconnectedness and fluidity of cultural boundaries. Central to the novel is the concept of hybridity, where characters embody multiple cultural identities and negotiate the complexities of their hybrid existence. Through vivid imagery, intricate storytelling, and linguistic experimentation, Rushdie depicts the rich tapestry of cultural influences shaping the characters' lives and experiences. The novel challenges essentialist notions of cultural purity and celebrates the dynamic interplay between diverse cultural traditions. Furthermore, the text explores the impact of colonialism, migration, and globalization on cultural formations, illustrating how power dynamics shape cultural exchanges and encounters. Rushdie critiques the hegemony of dominant cultural narratives and emphasizes the importance of embracing pluralism and diversity in contemporary societies. Overall, "The Satanic Verses" serves as a provocative and illuminating exploration of cross-cultural influences, offering profound insights into the complexities of cultural identity, hybridity, and the ever-evolving nature of human experience in an increasingly interconnected world.
The New Woman Avatar in Chetan Bhagat’s One Indian Girl
Authors: Baral Pawan
Published: May 2024

The paper aims at exploring the female protagonist, Radhika Mehta, of One Indian Girl by Chetan Bhagat in the light of the ideals of the New Woman in Indian context. This is an ideal which had emerged in the late 19th century and has had a profound influence to date. It associates women as independent, physically adept and mentally acute, and able to work, study, and socialize equal to men. Having been exposed to many Western countries during her career, Radhika focuses on her status and career, earns more than boys normally does, involves in premarital sex, and shows her individuality. However, she cannot renegotiate the traditional roles altogether. Rather, she tries to evade a critique of power relations within the family and attempt to get the best of both worlds, concretizing existing gender roles and taking on additional new ones.

STUDY OF THE POTENTIAL FOR MODIFYING THE DESIGN OF A TURBINE STIRRER BLADE TO REDUCE THE EFFECT OF SHEAR STRESSES ON MICROORGANISMS IN CULTIVATION PROCESSES
Authors: Shybetskyi V. Yu. , Kalinina M. F. , Kostyk S. I. , Povodzinskyi V. M. , Makarenko D. O.
Published: May 2024

Stirring in bioreactors is an important element for the efficient cultivation of cell cultures in biotechnological production. But high-speed stirrers can create high level of shear stresses that negatively affect microorganisms. Therefore, it is important to develop the design of new stirring devices to minimize the negative impact of shear stresses on cells during cultivation. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of the designs of turbine stirring devices, proposed by authors, on the parameters of the stirring process during the cultivation of cell cultures by methods of computer modeling. The computer modeling was performed in ANSYS for the process of liquid stirring in a bioreactor. Two new designs of turbine stirrers have been proposed. The idea of the new design is to divide the working blade into two, i.e. to create a cutout in the blade. In the first case, the cutout is a rectangle, in the second - a parallelogram. To compare the efficiency of the proposed designs, we also modeled the stirring with a classical turbine 6-blade stirrer. Based on the modeling results, were obtained contours of the velocity distribution, turbulent kinetic energy, shear strain rate, velocity vectors, and ISO-surfaces forming the core of the rotation vortex. It was found that the presence of cutouts in the turbine stirrer does not lead to a decrease in the velocity of the main flows and redistribution of motion vectors, but significantly reduces the value of turbulent kinetic energy from and shear strain rate. The maximum value of turbulent kinetic energy for the classical stirrer is 2.489 m2/s2, while for the stirrers with cutouts it barely reaches 1.245 m2/s2. The shear stresses decrease by 10 % from 19.63·10-3 Pa for the classical design to 17.67·10-3 Pa for the stirrer with parallelogram-shaped cutouts.

The main key to the formation of the maximum yield of agricultural crops in general, and of soybeans in particular, is the index of the leaf surface area. Providing plants with a full range of mineral nutrition elements and foliar fertilizing with organo-mineral fertilizer significantly affect the indicator of the size of the assimilation surface and the intensity of its growth. Foliar fertilizing with organo-mineral fertilizers and applying mineral fertilizers in different doses according to research results is quite an effective way to ensure optimal nutrition of plants. The results of research on the study of the photosynthetic productivity of soybean varieties under the influence of different doses of mineral fertilizers and different periods of foliar fertilizing with organo-mineral fertilizer (foliar fertilizing in the phase of the 3rd trifoliate leaf, foliar fertilizing in the phase of budding) in the conditions of the Right Bank Forest Steppe are presented. The peculiarities of the formation of the leaf surface area of soybean plants have been established. It was found that the dose of mineral fertilizers and the timing of foliar fertilizing with organo-mineral fertilizer Helprost Soybean (2.0 l/ha) had a significant impact on this indicator. The use of foliar fertilizing with Helprost Soybean in the budding phase ensured an increase in the leaf surface area by 7.2 - 12.7% in the Onyx variety and, accordingly, by 8.6 - 13.3% in the Sensor variety. Based on the results of research, it was found that the most effective technological technique was the combination of foliar feeding in the phase of the 3rd trifoliate leaf with Helprost Soybean with foliar feeding with the same organo-mineral fertilizer in the budding phase. Such growing conditions contributed to an increase in the area of leaves in comparison with variants without treatment by 10.6-17.9% in the Onyx variety and 12.3-18.2% in the Sensor variety.

According to the results of the observations and calculations, it was found that the photosynthetic potential of soybean crops increased dynamically during the entire growing season and was directly dependent on the doses of mineral fertilizers, foliar fertilizing with organic-mineral fertilizers, and the weather conditions of the year. Together with mineral fertilizers, foliar feeding in different phases of the growing season of soybean crops had a positive effect on the formation of the photosynthetic potential of crops.

An essential condition for obtaining high soybean yields is the presence of an optimal leaf surface area. An important condition for obtaining the optimal leaf area in plants is the formation of a certain density of plants per unit area. It is known that the optimal area of the leaf surface, for which a high yield of soybean seeds is formed, is considered to be an area within the range of 40–50 thousand m2/ha. The purpose of the research was the determined dependence of the formation of the leaf surface area and the photosynthetic activity of soybean plants under the influence of the sowing rate and the width of the rows. The research was conducted during 2021–2023 at the experimental field of the VSP "Zalischytskyi Vocational College named after E. Khraplyvyh NUBiP of Ukraine". The following methods were used in the research process: field, laboratory, mathematical and statistical using generally recognized methods and methodical recommendations. The experiment was conducted on dark gray podsolized soil. The experiment was based on a three-factor scheme, where Diadema Podillia and Mentor varieties were factor A, and row width was factor B (15 cm – control, 30 cm and 45 cm); factor C is the sowing rate (500 thousand/ha - control, 600 and 700 thousand pieces of similar seeds per 1 ha. The predecessor is winter wheat.

The conducted studies showed that the maximum leaf surface area was the Mentor variety - it reached 37,7-44,7 thousand/m2/ha during the seeding period. In the variety Diadema Podillia, the area of the leaf surface grew more slowly and reached the maximum size – 36,3-43,0 thousand m2/ha during the seeding period. The largest assimilation surface of soybean plants was formed at seed sowing rates of 500-600 thousand/ha in the Mentor variety, and in the Diadema Podillia variety at seed sowing rates of 600-700 thousand/ha. and for row widths of 30 and 45 cm in both varieties.

It was established that the photosynthetic potential of Diadema Podillia soybean during the period of germination - full maturity was within the range of 1,95-2,21 million m2 days/ha, in the Mentor variety – 2,16-2,56 million m2 days/ha.

The article covers issues related to the strengthening of solid tungsten-cobalt alloy plates of wood-cutting disc saws with new tungsten-free composite materials. It is shown that the domestic hard alloy is significantly inferior to the similar hard alloy of foreign production. This is primarily related to the technology of its production (the imperfection of the equipment for grinding tungsten, which does not make it possible to obtain the required dispersion and the method of sintering). It is noted that one of the ways to solve these problems is the development of a technology for strengthening hard alloy plates, which will make it possible to increase the stability indicators of the tool. Wear resistance can be increased by special surface treatment with the help of new composite materials, which changes such properties of the main material as hardness, corrosion and operational wear resistance, and strength. The problem of surface strengthening of wood-cutting tools with the use of wear-resistant coatings is quite urgent, as it opens wide opportunities for the creation of new special materials with fundamentally new physico-mechanical and physico-chemical properties. Advanced technologies for obtaining such coatings include the method of their formation under the action of concentrated energy flows with the use of electrospark alloying. The main advantage of the surface treatment of materials is that despite the high hardness and strength of the surface layer, the high plasticity and viscosity of the base is preserved. That is why research aimed at strengthening wood-cutting saws with new materials using the electrospark alloying method is relevant. The purpose of the research is to increase the service life of the wood-cutting tool by electrospark alloying of hard alloy with new composite materials and to reduce the shortage of hard alloys. The research results showed that dusts with strengthening treatment of teeth with a material based on titanium carbide КТФХ have the greatest resistance.
