Economic Consequences of Greylisting by the Financial Action Task Force
Authors: de Koker Louis , Howell John , Morris Nicholas
Published: April 2023

This study considers the impact of the FATF’s greylisting process from a market perspective. The results are intended to inform the development of public policy and improvement of market signalling. The study develops a theoretical market impact model and identifies the indicators which may impact banking operations and institutional decisions. It is explicitly market-oriented in that the model seeks to reflect how stakeholders in financial and non-financial markets typically respond to signals sent out by the FATF. The authors find that the FATF’s greylisting signalling has changed over time and distinguish four broad periods reflecting different messaging. The study uses financial, trade, and other variables derived from the World Bank’s ‘World Development Indicators’ databank to explore evidence of impact in each of the different phases of the FATF’s approach to greylisting. The study uses a pooled cross-section and time series approach with fixed effects, based on a sample of 177 countries and 3540 country-years of data from 2000 to 2020. The study examines impacts on net official development assistance, the banking environment (non-performing loans, risk premiums), net foreign assets, indebtedness, and market capitalisation. It finds significant correlations between many financial variables and FATF listing events, including an apparent reduction in development assistance during greylisting periods which endured after the country was delisted. This is of significant concern, as such reductions may impact disproportionately on developing economies.
An On-Orbit Task-Offloading Strategy Based on Satellite Edge Computing
Authors: Hu Yifei , Gong Wenbin
Published: April 2023

Satellite edge computing has attracted the attention of many scholars due to its extensive coverage and low delay. Satellite edge computing research remains focused on on-orbit task scheduling. However, existing research has not considered the situation where heavily loaded satellites cannot participate in offloading. To solve this problem, this study first models the task scheduling of dynamic satellite networks as a minimization problem that considers both the weighted delay and energy consumption. In addition, a hybrid genetic binary particle swarm optimization (GABPSO) algorithm is proposed to solve this optimization problem. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the other three baseline algorithms.

Published: April 2023

Reports related to incidences of drug facilitated crimes (DFCs) have notably increased in recently. In such cases, victims report being assaulted or robbed while under the influence of drugs. Lorazepam (LZ) is frequently used in DFCs as it can easily make victims docile owing to its potent numbing effect. Therefore, a straightforward and green analytical method to analyze LZ in spiked food matrices in connection with criminal acts becomes important. The current study reports a simple, green, and high sample throughput analytical method for determining LZ in food and drink matrices commonly encountered in DFCs, based on recently introduced cellulose paper sorptive extraction (CPSE). For the extraction of LZ from food matrices, pristine cellulose paper (CP, commonly used laboratory filter paper) was used as a sorptive medium. Five pieces of CP (1.5″ × 1.5″ each) were dipped into diluted food matrices (cream biscuits and tea) and stirred on a rotary shaker for 30 min at 200 rpm. The CPs were then dried, and the adsorbed LZ was back-extracted into 2 mL of methanol. The extract was then subjected to GC–MS analysis in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode. Several parameters, including CP size and number, back-extraction solvent type and volume, sample volume, extraction time and stirring speed, pH, ionic strength, elution time and speed, were thoroughly screened and optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the method was found to be linear in the range of 0.2–10 µg·mL−1 (or µg·g−1) with a coefficient of determination (R2) ranging from 0.996–0.998. The limit of detection and limit of quantification for cream biscuits were 0.054 and 0.18 µg·g−1 whereas they were 0.05 and 0.16 µg·mL−1 for tea samples. For all measurements, the relative standard deviations (%RSD) were always below 10%. Two mL of methanol per sample was used during the entire sample preparation process. The greenness of the proposed procedure was evaluated using Analytical Eco-Scale and GAPI greenness assessment tools. Finally, the CPSE–GC–MS method has been applied for the determination of LZ in forensic food samples which were used in DFCs.
Towards Sustainable Energy Systems Considering Unexpected Sports Event Management: Integrating Machine Learning and Optimization Algorithms
Authors: Zhang Lei , Yang Ying
Published: April 2023

This paper proposes a novel approach for achieving sustainable energy systems in unexpected sports event management by integrating machine learning and optimization algorithms. Specifically, we used reinforcement learning for peak load forecasting and bat evolutionary algorithm for optimization, since the energy management problem in sports events is typically non-linear. Machine learning algorithms, specifically reinforcement learning, are used to analyze historical data and provide accurate peak load forecasts. This information can then be used to optimize energy consumption during the event through the use of algorithms such as the bat evolutionary algorithm, which can effectively solve non-linear optimization problems. The integration of these algorithms in unexpected sports event management can lead to significant improvements in sustainability and cost-effectiveness. This paper presents a case study of the implementation of reinforcement learning and bat evolutionary algorithms in an unexpected sports event management scenario, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach in achieving sustainable energy systems and reducing overall energy consumption. Overall, this paper provides a roadmap for integrating machine learning and optimization algorithms, such as reinforcement learning and bat evolutionary algorithm, in unexpected sports event management to achieve sustainable energy systems, promoting a more sustainable future for the sports event industry and the planet as a whole.
Ecological Dynamics and Evolution of Cooperation in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks
Authors: Salimi Sartakhti Javad , Stodt Fatemeh
Published: April 2023

In Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs), promoting cooperative behavior is a challenging problem for mechanism designers. Cooperative actions, such as disseminating data, can seem at odds with rationality and may benefit other vehicles at a cost to oneself. Without additional mechanisms, it is expected that cooperative behavior in the population will decrease and eventually disappear. Classical game theoretical models for cooperation, such as the public goods game, predict this outcome, but they assume fixed population sizes and overlook the ecological dynamics of the interacting vehicles. In this paper, we propose an evolutionary public goods game that incorporates VANET ecological dynamics and offers new insights for promoting cooperation. Our model considers free spaces, population density, departure rates of vehicles, and randomly composed groups for each data sender. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that higher population densities and departure rates, due to minimum differences between pay-offs of vehicles, promote cooperative behavior. This feedback between ecological dynamics and evolutionary game dynamics leads to interesting results. Our proposed model demonstrates a new extension of evolutionary dynamics to vehicles of varying densities. We show that it is possible to promote cooperation in VANETs without the need for any supporting mechanisms. Future research can investigate the potential for using this model in practical settings.
Preventing the Separation of Urban Humans from Nature: The Impact of Pet and Plant Diversity on Biodiversity Loss Belief

Published: April 2023

Despite the dependence of human existence on myriad ecosystem services and products, a high proportion of people feel disconnection from nature due to urbanization. This separation appears to have created an increase in the numbers of climate change and biodiversity loss denialists, thereby weakening global efforts to prevent environmental degradation and address environmental issues. The current study employs the reasoning capability of Mindsponge theory and the statistical advantages of Bayesian inference to examine whether access to in-home pet and plant diversity can increase the probability of biodiversity loss belief among urban residents. The findings from 535 Vietnamese respondents indicate that, when respondents feel comfortable at home, a higher diversity of pets is associated with a higher likelihood of believing that biodiversity loss is a real and major problem. However, the effect becomes the opposite when the respondents feel uncomfortable at home. Plant diversity has a positive impact on biodiversity loss belief regardless of comfort. Notably, the impact of plant diversity on biodiversity loss belief is more substantial among respondents who feel uncomfortable than those who feel comfortable. Following these findings, we suggest that increasing in-home biodiversity can be a promising way to raise urban residents’ awareness of the occurrence and significance of biodiversity loss, which will subsequently help them build up an eco-surplus culture.

Published: April 2023

An 8-year-old male Rhodesian Ridgeback was presented with fever and severe thrombocytopenia. Clinical and laboratory examination, echocardiography, blood culture, and pathohistology revealed evidence of infective endocarditis, ischemic renal infarcts, and septic encephalitis. Treatment was started immediately but the dog’s condition worsened, and the dog had to be euthanized. The causative Streptococcus canis strain was detected by blood culture and MALDI-TOF MS and analyzed using whole-genome sequencing and multilocus sequence typing. Antibiotic susceptibility testing did not detect any resistance. The affected heart valve was analyzed using FISH imaging, which showed a streptococcal biofilm on the heart valve. Bacteria in biofilms are recalcitrant to antibiotic treatment. Early diagnosis could be beneficial to treatment outcome. Treatment of endocarditis could be improved by researching the optimal dosage of antibiotics in conjunction with the use of biofilm-active drugs.

The methodological base for assessing the quality of services is being improved and developed. This allows tourism industry enterprises to make their services more in demand and attractive, more competitive and viable compared to the services of other industry enterprises. This article is devoted to the issues of assessing and improving the quality of services of the oldest and unique museum in Kirov — the House-Museum of M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin. The assessment of the quality of the museum’s services was carried out by three methods: a mystery shopper, analysis of reviews and a book of complaints and suggestions, and the NPS method, shortcomings in the quality of the museum’s services were identified and recommendations were proposed.
Polymorbidity in geriatric practice
Authors:   Regional Clinical Hospital, Krasnoyarsk, Natanson M. A.
Published: April 2023

The definition of the concept of polymorbidity reveals the lack of specificity in the definitions of comorbidity and polymorbidity and, as a result, confusion in the use of these terms. Most authors are unanimous in their opinion that the «core» of polymorbidity is the presence of more than one disease in a patient. These coexisting diseases may or may not be pathogenetically related. Regardless of this, the degree of polymorbidity always affects the prognosis and quality of life.
Emergency care for poisoning with an unknown substance
Authors:   Infectious Diseases Hospital No. 4, Ufa, Korobka Y. I.
Published: April 2023

Poisoning is a disorder of the body's vital functions resulting from the ingestion of poison or toxin, as well as the action that caused such a disease (for example, murder or suicide by means of poison). First aid to victims of poisoning should be provided as soon as possible, since in acute poisoning, a very rapid impairment of breathing, blood circulation, and heartbeat is possible. Timely first aid often prevents the possibility of death.

Autobiographies and the writing of women’s history: the example of Hiwot Teffera’s Tower in the Sky
Authors: Guidi Pierre
Published: April 2023

As archives, autobiographies allow analysis of the reciprocal relations between individuals, broader social groups, social structures, and contexts. For decades they have served as valuable sources for feminist historians. They uncover voices often silenced or distorted in institutional archives and historical works. Moreover, autobiographies make it possible to study how gendered structures work and how power relations are experienced and possibly manipulated by women. The several autobiographies recently published by former activists of the Ethiopian revolution are essential sources for historians’ understanding of the mechanisms of participation in the revolutionary movement. Drawing on selected themes from Hiwot Teffera’s famous work, Tower in the Sky, this article questions the intensity of the student generation of the 1970s’ revolutionary commitment and the gendered dimensions of activism. To do so, it focuses on social relations such as love and the ways of belonging to a group, on the rational and emotional drivers of engagement, and on the gendered division of activist work. Lastly, it defends the relevance of autobiography as a multilayered archive that is particularly suitable for the analysis of intricate processes.

ЕКЗИСТЕНЦІЙНІ РЕСУРСИ ОСОБИСТОСТІ У КРИЗІ СЕРЕДНЬОГО ВІКУ
Authors: Кузнецов Олексій , Гресь Юрій , Бублик Марина
Published: April 2023

Актуальність дослідження. Криза середини життя не має певних вікових меж, оскільки вона може виявлятися пізніше або раніше призначеного терміну або взагалі минати непомітно для людини, через благополучний вихід особистості із неї завдяки індивідуальним особливостям у поєднанні з соціальним, біологічним і психологічним статусом (Гресь та ін.). Ці обставини ускладнюють вивчення цього лімінального періоду життя та зумовлюють наукову значущість та актуальність проблеми виявлення екзистенцій них ресурсів перебігу та виходу з кризи середнього віку.

Методи та вибірка. Методика вивчення ціннісно-смислової кризи середини життя С.В.Полтавського в україномовній адаптації Л.О. Гресь, методика діагностики екзистенційної наповненості життя (Ленгле та ін., 2016), методика діагностики усвідомленості (Юмартова & Гришина, 2016), методика діагностики екзистенційної мотивації (Шумский та ін, 2016).

Результати. Виявлено низку кореляцій показників перебігу кризи середини життя із екзистенційною наповненістю, осмисленістю, смисло-життєвими орієнтаціями, екзистенційною мотивацією.

Висновки. Кореляції показників ціннісно-смислової кризи середини життя, де позитивними зв’язками із екзистенційною наповненістю, осмисленістю, смисло-життєвими орієнтаціями, екзистенційною мотивацією відзначаються показники затребуваності та смислу, а негативними – самопочуття, ідеалів та втоми. Отже, перебіг кризи середини життя розкривається в екзистенцій ній кризі особистості, зниженні осмисленості буття, втратою почуття контролю над подіями життя, зниженням переконаності у здатності контролювати себе та бути джерелом подій життя, зниженням самоцінності та цінності життя.
ЗВ’ЯЗОК МОТИВІВ СПОРТИВНОЇ ДІЯЛЬНОСТІ ІЗ САМОРЕГУЛЯЦІЄЮ ПІДЛІТКІВ-СПОРТСМЕНІВ
Authors: Лукова Світлана
Published: April 2023

Актуальність дослідження зв’язку саморегуляції з мотивами спортивної діяльності зумовлене динамікою мотиваційної сфери у підлітковому віці та значенням мотивації у результативності спортивної діяльності підлітків.

Мета. Встановити зв’язок провідних мотивів спортивної діяльності підлітків із типами саморегуляції.

Методи. Опитувальник «Саморегуляція спортивної діяльності» (за К. Фоменко, І. Полілуєвою), опитувальник «Актуальні мотиви спортивної діяльності підлітків» (за С. Луковою, К. Фоменко).

Результати. Встановлено, що у підлітковому віці глористичний мотив та мотив фізичного вдосконалення набувають більшого значення, ніж емоційне задоволення під час занять спортом. Статеві відмінності виявлені лише за мотивом фізичного вдосконалення, більш виражений він у хлопців-спортсменів, ніж у дівчат. У представників командних видів спорту емоційний мотив набуває більшого значення, ніж у представників індивідуальних видів спорту. Встановлено зв’язок мотивів спортивної діяльності підлітків зі стилями саморегуляції. Найвищі кореляції трьох досліджуваних мотивів виявлені із такими стилями саморегуляція, як ідентифіковане регулювання та власне спонукання.

Висновки. Вивчення стильових відмінностей саморегуляції підлітків-спортсменів з різними провідними мотивами спортивної діяльності дозволило виявити, що найвищі показники ідентифікованого регулювання та власного спонукання виявлені у підлітків з високим рівнем мотивації (за всіма трьома мотивами), а найнижчі – у амотивованих підлітків. Домінування у мотиваційному профілі підлітків одного провідного мотиву (глористичного, емоційного або мотиву фізичного самовдосконалення) меншою мірою сприяє розвитку внутрішньої мотивації, ніж одночасні високі показники за всіма трьома мотивами.

Achieving Governance Disclosure – the Surprising Case of an Emerging Market Family Business
Authors: Sleiman Fouad Peter
Published: April 2023

Since 1961, when the first paper to clearly recognize and study family firms was published, the business literature has seen an increasing trend in the number of articles relating to family firms. One reason why interest in this field has grown may be because family-owned firms do not behave as expected by the predominant theoretical framework. Family-ownership has been shown to be unique in its effect on the firm when compared to other firm ownership structures. Such divergent behavior is disconcerting, knowing that, globally, family firms may be the most common firm structure. Governance is one of the largest streams of research within the family business literature. Regrettably, most research on family businesses is focused on Western developed economies suggesting that theory building when it comes to family business governance has been largely driven by the Anglo-Saxon corporate governance model. This is unfortunate because we know that context plays a vital role in governance outcomes and in family firm behavior. One of the important challenges faced by developing countries is governance disclosure, with potentially grave repercussions for their economic futures. The aim of this research is to help understand the motivations behind the decision of a family, non-listed firm, in a developing country context, to disclose governance information on its board members. We propose a larger role for institutional isomorphism at the intersection of the family, governance, disclosure, and developing country literatures. To this end, we identified a family business in the emerging market of Lebanon that has demonstrated this phenomenon. Despite the odds, this firm was able to overcome multiple challenges - family firm structure, secretive culture, no legal requirements, information sensitivity - to ultimately share this information with the public. Our case study helps us suggest a context-specific governance disclosure model based on the institutional theoretical framework.
A legislative amendment within Dutch mental healthcare increases the administrative burden: a follow-up study
Authors: Maris Arjen
Published: April 2023

Background: To be accountable to laws and regulations, healthcare professionals spend more than 40% of their time on administrative tasks. The Compulsory Mental Healthcare Act (CMHA) was introduced in Dutch mental healthcare in 2020. It was hypothesized that this legislative amendment would raise the administrative burden for some care professionals. Pilot studies in 2020 and 2021 visualized the exponentially rise of the administrative burden for care professionals, especially psychiatrists due to the transition. However the total response was too small and not generalizable.

Aim: gain more nationwide insight in the hypothesized raise of administrative burden of psychiatrists due to the implementation of the CMHA.

Method: Under the leadership of an advisory board of three medical director psychiatrists, a Likert scale questionnaire was further developed to investigate the administrative burden of psychiatrists in the Netherlands before and after transition. Open-ended questions provided the opportunity for feedback from the psychiatrists. The study was supported by the Department of Medical Directors (DMD) of The Netherlands Psychiatric Association (NPA).

Results: all mental health institutions members of the DMD of the NPA received an invitation to participate. 14 institutions (total N=158) responded. The data show a significant change in the time spent on administrative tasks, the usefulness of the administrative actions, the fit for use and ease of use of supporting systems. The forementioned all decreased significantly after the implementation.

Conclusion and discussion: Psychiatrists spend more time on administration than before the legislative amendment instead of helping vulnerable patients. None of the institutions has been able to use the transition to its advantage given the time spent on administrative tasks and the usefulness of these tasks. This is an unacceptable development in the field of mental health in the Netherlands and should be addressed to those who are responsible for the decision making, especially policy makers. These results show that the introduction of the CMHA have made the field of Dutch mental health an impossible area to work for.
Modelling and Measuring Innovation Culture
Authors: Davies Muriel , Buisine Stéphanie
Published: April 2023

We aim to provide a conceptual model of innovation culture in organizations and build a survey tool to measure it. Innovation management focuses often on formalized processes whereas unwritten rules related to organizational culture are also a major factor for innovation and firms’ performance. We first position the role of culture with regard to innovation processes, then provide a model of innovation culture relying on five branches (External links, Teams, Organizational context, Individuals, and Leaders). Following the elaboration of this model called ETOILe, we address the issue of measuring it. In this paper, we focus on the less-known components such as External Links and design an ad hoc questionnaire.

The validation study is performed through a laboratory test with 115 professional participants followed by reliability analysis of data and principal components analysis. The results of the study enabled us to refine the diagnosis tool as well as the underlying model of innovation culture. The current version includes four branches (Team, Organization, Individuals, Leaders) and ten sub-dimensions including promotion and prevention regulatory focus, managerial practices, discovery and delivery skills, etc.

Because of its implicitness and intangibility, culture is often disregarded in the analysis of key ingredients of firms’ performance. Our model of innovation culture gathering such unwritten rules contributes to understanding why innovation is so natural and efficient in some companies, and why it is sometimes painful, despite robust managerial structure and methodological processes. Finally, we provide a diagnosis tool intended for all hierarchical levels of the organization, and not only for managerial staff. Our model and tool could be used at several levels: at the company’s level to grasp the overall cultural profile, at the department or team level to assess differences in innovation culture between subdivisions in a given company, and at a trans-company level to characterize cultural differences associated to business sectors (e.g., manufacturing sector, consulting sector, retail sector).
Exploration of Corporate Governance Challenges in Public Sector Information Systems- An Auditor General Perspective
Authors: Latchu Ashley
Published: April 2023

The aim of this article is to explore the obstacles that are within the South African public sector, preventing information systems from operating as efficiently as they could. The significance of the research lies in the fact that the accomplishment of the objectives outlined in the South African national development plan 2030 and the medium-term strategy framework is dependent on the performance of the public sector. In the course of the research, annual and general reports from the website maintained by the Auditor General of South Africa from 2017 through 2021 were used. This study made use of the qualitative analysis software, Atlas.ti 7 which was employed to analyse textual data in annual reports. The investigation of the difficulties posed by corporate governance in the South African public sector were unveiled from themes emerging form the use of thematic analysis. The research uncovered issues with both the macro and the micro levels of corporate governance in the South African public sector. The macro concerns that were brought to light were difficulties in the structure of information systems, an economic downturn, changes in the leadership of the government, and a lack of credible information offered to people. Poor leadership accountability, inadequate information technology capabilities, poor project management, poor information management, inadequate and ineffective disaster recovery, regression in information technology governance, and delay in filling information technology vacancies were some of the micro-obstacles of corporate governance that affected information systems. According to the findings of the research, a transformational approach should be used to solve the issues by first gaining an awareness of how users view the role that information technologies play in the running of public bodies. In addition, instruments of corporate governance that relate to information systems in the public sector should be assessed to gauge their effectiveness in the South African environment.
A Systematic Literature Review on Change and Leadership in Higher Education
Authors: McSharry Trevor
Published: April 2023

This paper presents a systematic literature review that focuses on the topics of change and leadership in Higher Education, in order to synthesis existing research in this key emerging area and provide some direction for future research. A review framework and method are outlined, in order to clarify the type and source of literature to be reviewed and the focus of this review process. Then, findings are analysed and presented, and thematic areas identified and analysed. Gaps in research are then explored followed by a conclusion and recommendations. Initially, 80 relevant articles were identified from Scopus and Academic Search Complete since 2010. Through abstract review, articles, which did not adequately relate to change and leadership were removed. The final number of papers reviewed and thematically analysed in detail were 23.

This research confirms that there has been a steady output of peer-reviewed journal articles published that focused on both leadership and change in Higher Education. Through thematic analysis, several key themes emerged. These included an array of change drivers and the internal and external context associated with politics, culture and traditions and the developmental stage of the higher educational system. Staff utilisation, collaboration and development were additional themes identified that set the scene to determine effective leadership approaches and characteristics. The final theme identified was leadership recruitment and development. Many knowledge gaps from an instrumental, humanistic, critical, and philosophical perspective were identified. It is hoped that this literature review will aid further scholars in their research and develop new knowledge so that convergent views on this important topic will surface.

The development of the modern economy associated with the development of natural resources is greatly influenced by information technologies of the platform type. In this area the formation of new economic entities of business structures of the resource type is taking place – ecosystems capable of solving new problems on the principles of the digital economy. The work is devoted to the methodological and technological aspects of the development and formation of re- source-type business systems. The possibilities of platform interaction of business systems of a resource type are considered on the example of a resource region (Krasnoyarsk Territory). The key idea of the study: the basis for the development of resource-type business ecosystems in a resource-rich region is cooperation and network interactions which are effectively analyzed within the framework of the author›s technology – functional-environmental analysis.

Goal. Development of a generalized approach to formalization and solution of various classes of multicriteria selection problems for subsequent use of the results obtained in the creation and use of appropriate support systems and management decision-making. Materials and methods. To achieve this goal, the authors of the article used the methodology and methodological foundations for solving the class of problems under consideration, which were developed at the present time in the interdisciplinary branch of system knowledge. Results. An approach is proposed in which it is possible to approach the formalization and solution of multi-criteria selection problems arising at various stages of the life cycle of complex organizational and technical complexes from a unified position. Such tasks, first of all, include the tasks of group selection, vector optimization, cascade (hierarchical) selection, coordination and game selection. An example of solving the optimization problem is given, illustrating the advantages of the proposed approach. Conclusion. The approach considered in the article is based on the concepts of system modeling and selection with multi-consideration in conditions of uncertainty of environmental impact, based on the theory of mathematical structures by N. Burbaki.

Currently, progress in world pedagogy is largely associated with the transition to a personality-oriented education, in which a student does not just master the amount of knowledge under the guidance of a teacher, but learns to independently extract and apply the knowledge gained in practice. At the same time, there is still an urgent problem of optimal division of educational material (courses) into modules and the output of information on the course or module. The solution to this problem is to create an information system that will allow the training course to be divided into modules of a given complexity, depending on the number of modules, the volume of material, and the number of terms. The purpose of this work is to increase the optimal grouping of sections of educational material into modules.

Abstract: This article is a response to the existence of new atheism in the midst of present day reality of religious pluralism. The response manifests itself in a review on Logos theology according to three early patristic thinkers: Justin Martyr (Logos spermatikos), Irenaeus of Lyons (Logos emphutos), and Clement of Alexandria (Logos protreptikos). Through the review, this article will imaginatively map out each of the early patristic thinkers’s response to new atheism. Then, this article will evaluate all these responses to formulate a basis that Christianity can use to face new atheism. Keywords: Logos emphutos, Logos protreptikos, Logos spermatikos, New atheism.  Abstrak: Artikel ini merespons eksistensi ateisme baru di tengah realitas keagamaan plural masa kini.

L'opera scientifica di Emanuele Paternò
Authors: Montaudo Giorgio
Published: April 2023

Emanuele Paternò (Palermo. 1847-1935), marchese di Sessa, discendeva da nobile famiglia ed era imparentato con Cannizzaro, anch’egli di famiglia equestre. Si laureò a Palermo nel 1871 e nello stesso anno divenne professore a Torino. Nel 1872, Paternò venne chiamato a Palermo per ricoprire la cattedra di Cannizzaro, trasferito a Roma. La sua firma compare fra i fondatori della "Gazzetta Chimica Italiana", fondata a Roma il 20 settembre 1870. Fu chiamato nel 1892 a Roma, alla cattedra di Chimica analitica. Paternò successe poi a Cannizzaro nella cattedra di Chimica generale. Celebri sono le sue ricerche pionieristiche (1869) sul carbonio tetraedrico e sulla isomeria rotazionale nel dibromoetano. Paternò passò poi ad occuparsi di crioscopia (1885), applicando tale metodo alla determinazione delle masse molecolari di numerose sostanze organiche. Gli studi successivi (1889-1910) sullo stato colloidale furono di grande avanguardia in campo europeo. A partire dal 1909, Paternò si occupò della fotochimica di composti organici, e scoprì la reazione fotochimica di cicloaddizione di olefine e composti carbonilici, detta oggi di Paternò-Buchi, che riveste grande importanza sia dal punto di vista sintetico che teorico.
