THE JUDICIAL MECHANISM IN RESOLVING AIR CONSUMER DISPUTES: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS IN THE IRAQI SYSTEM
Authors: Abood Mahmood Shaker
Published: December 2024

This study addresses the judicial mechanisms available for resolving consumer disputes in the field of air transport in Iraq, through a critical analysis of the challenges hindering the protection of passenger rights when disputes arise with airlines. Given the rapid developments in the global air transport sector, the judiciary becomes a vital tool for ensuring justice and protecting consumer rights. However, the Iraqi judicial system faces several challenges that hinder the swift and fair achievement of justice in this field. The main challenges consumers face in air transport include high litigation costs, the complexity of legal procedures, long waiting periods in courts, and the difficulty of proving fault against airlines, especially due to the lack of complex technical evidence. Furthermore, the lack of legal awareness among passengers about their rights makes it more difficult for them to claim compensation or defend their rights in court.  These problems have been exacerbated by Iraq's failure to adopt the 1999 Montreal Convention, which strengthens consumer protection in the field of international air transport. The study aims to assess these mechanisms and offer solutions to improve the efficiency of the Iraqi judicial system in line with international standards. The study is based on a review of the relevant legal provisions.

Published: December 2024

The narratives of prophets, particularly those of Nuh (Noah) Alayhissalam, are central to Islamic religious texts and hold significant cultural and theological value. These accounts are not only integral to Islamic tradition but also offer insights into the evolution of religious storytelling. Within the genre of prophetic narratives, the stories of Nuh Alayhissalam present a unique interplay of thematic elements and narrative structures. These stories span various dimensions of human experience, divine intervention, and moral instruction, revealing diverse literary techniques and symbolic representations. Despite the rich tapestry of these narratives, there is a lack of comprehensive scholarly analysis that explores the range and significance of literary devices employed across different texts and traditions. Existing studies often focus on isolated elements rather than providing a cohesive understanding of the narrative's genre and its broader implications. This study aims to analyze the narrative diversity within the stories of Nuh Alayhissalam, examining the various genres and thematic elements present in these accounts. The objective is to identify and articulate the literary and symbolic variations and their implications for religious and cultural interpretations. Preliminary findings indicate a significant variance in narrative techniques and symbolic content across different sources, reflecting a complex interplay of cultural, theological, and literary factors. These variations offer new insights into how these stories function within their respective traditions. This research contributes a novel perspective by systematically categorizing the genre and narrative strategies of Nuh Alayhissalam's stories, bridging gaps between textual analysis and theological interpretation. The study’s findings provide a deeper understanding of the narrative complexity within prophetic stories, enhancing scholarly discourse and offering valuable perspectives for both religious studies and comparative literature.

FIRST WORLD WAR ISSUE IN GEORGIAN LITERATURE
Authors: Chogovadze Lela
Published: December 2024

General Background: The First World War (1914–1918) significantly reshaped global political landscapes, dismantling monarchies and empires and giving rise to new states, including Georgia's First Democratic Republic. Specific Background: During this period, Georgian poets, notably Titian Tabidze, expressed strong patriotic sentiments, seeing hope in war as a means to revive Georgia. His essay, War Theme in Georgian Writing (1915), reflects the belief that war, while destructive, could defeat evil and death, and lead to national rebirth. Knowledge Gap: There is limited scholarly analysis on how Georgian writers, particularly Symbolists like Tabidze, engaged with themes of war and national identity, especially in comparison to pacifist movements of the time. Aims: This study aims to explore Tabidze's pro-war stance in Georgian literature and its connection to the patriotic ideal of "glorious death over shameful life," contrasting it with pacifist writers like Herman Hesse and contemporaries who rejected war's necessity. Results: Tabidze’s essay reveals a poetic vision of war as a vehicle for national resurrection, rooted in heroic ideals. He laments that only a few Georgian poets, such as Vazha-Pshavela and Kote Makashvili, responded to the war theme in literature. Novelty: This work offers a fresh perspective on Georgian literature during WWI by highlighting Tabidze’s symbolism and pro-war idealism, often overlooked in broader studies of war literature. Implications: Understanding Tabidze's stance provides deeper insights into the interplay of war, national identity, and literature in Georgia, contributing to a more nuanced view of how small nations engaged with the broader global conflicts of the 20th century.

Collage work is the art of cutting and sticking on a flat surface, in the form of two-dimensional works of art that use various materials as a medium to create an artistic composition. In this case, the collage work comes from a program initiated by the Komunitas Gubuak Kopi entitled Daur Subur, which is an art platform as a study of the culture that develops in agricultural communities in Solok City, West Sumatra. In the Daur Subur program there is an archive of documentation collected during activities, which have been running from 2017 until now. In 2018 the Daur Subur#4 program launched a special theme entitled "Bakureh." This collection of archives on the theme "Bakureh" was then made into a collage work carried out through an interpretation process. The method used in producing this work refers to Alma Hawkins which consists of; exploration, improvisation, and shaping. This method will be used in every process of creating a collage work, from collecting all the curated archives to finishing the work. From this process eight works were created with the title; Proses Bakureh, Dapur dan Tungku, Julo-Julo, Pesta Warga, Rumah dan Istirahatnya, Bararak Menuju Sore, Gotong Royong, dan Suasana Dapur dan kepala yang Sibuk. After the collage work is created, the work is then presented by hanging it on a sketchpad and arranging it according to the concept and title of each work. The publication was carried out in the form of a solo exhibition which was given the same title as the Daur Subur program, namely “Potongan di Meja Dapur Komunal”
ME+YOU=MET: ACTIVATION OF THE COFFEE SHOP PUBLIC SPACE INTO A THEATER PERFORMING ARTS SPACE WITH AN ENVIRONMENTAL THEATER AND POST DRAMATIC APPROACH
Authors: Wahyuni Yeni , Yusril Yusril
Published: December 2024

This research examines the transformation of a public coffee shop space into a theater performing arts space by applying environmental theater and post-dramatic theater approaches. Public spaces, especially coffee shops, have great potential as alternative spaces for theatrical performances, given their informal characteristics and ability to attract various levels of society. The environmental theater approach emphasizes interaction between audience and actors as well as non-conventional use of space, thereby blurring the boundaries between stage space and audience space. Meanwhile, post-dramatic theater, which emerged as a response to traditional theater structures, prioritizes elements such as visuals, sound, and movement over linear narrative. The performance Aku+Kamu=Bertemu moves the perspective form of the arena stage and proscenium to the public space, by reading the issues in the public space. The conclusion from the Aku+Kamu=Bertemu performance is that integrating public spaces such as coffee shops into theater performing arts practices can revive the local culture and create a space for dynamic social interaction. This study also offers practical guidance for theater practitioners and coffee shop owners in designing and executing performances that take full advantage of the potential of these public spaces. Thus, this thesis contributes to the development of new strategies in the performing arts and public space management.

Authors: Mohammed Othman M , Noori Saif Subhi , Salam Ibrahim
Published: December 2024

This study addresses the growing threat of drug resistance in malaria, toxoplasmosis, and giardiasis by analyzing the underlying genetic mutations that compromise the efficacy of current treatments. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for developing more effective therapeutic strategies. A comprehensive review of literature was conducted to identify key mutations associated with drug resistance. In malaria, the focus was on mutations in genes like Pfmdr1, Pfcrt, Pfmrp, and Pfnhe1, which are linked to resistance against antimalarials, particularly the K76T mutation in PfCRT for chloroquine resistance. For toxoplasmosis, mutations in the DHFR-TS and DHPS genes were analyzed, particularly the T83N mutation in DHFR-TS, which confers resistance to pyrimethamine. In giardiasis, the study reviewed mutations in the ferredoxin oxidoreductase gene that reduce the efficacy of metronidazole. The analysis revealed that specific mutations in these parasites significantly contribute to the development of drug resistance, complicating treatment protocols. In malaria, PfMRP1 mutations are particularly concerning due to their role in resistance to both chloroquine and quinine. Toxoplasmosis resistance is notably influenced by DHFR-TS and DHPS mutations, while giardiasis resistance is linked to alterations in drug transport and enzyme function. This study synthesizes the most recent findings on genetic resistance mechanisms in these three parasitic diseases, offering insights that could inform the development of next-generation therapies and improve resistance management strategies, ultimately contributing to better health outcomes.

Published: December 2024

Agroforestry systems play a critical role in supporting livelihoods across East Nusa Tenggara, including in the Bu'u Bei Community Forest (HKm) in Tina Bani Village, Ende District, Ende Regency, Indonesia. This study investigates agroforestry patterns and evaluates their contribution to household income among the 47 HKm member households, surveyed through a census in April and May 2024. Employing both descriptive and quantitative analyses, our research reveals that the agrisilviculture system, characterised by a random mixed planting pattern, dominates agroforestry practices in the village. Path dependency, rooted in long-standing traditions, significantly shapes these practices. Agroforestry contributed significantly to household income in 2023, accounting for 98.87% of total income. However, poor infrastructure, particularly damaged roads, limits market access and reduces the economic potential of these systems. The study emphasises the need for integrated land management approaches that address infrastructure deficits while strengthening the resilience of agroforestry systems. This research provides critical insights into the socio-economic and environmental roles of agroforestry, offering a valuable reference for policymakers and stakeholders committed to promoting sustainable forest management and rural development in Indonesia.

El enfoque de investigación utilizado fue cuantitativo, con un diseño descriptivo, un alcance correlacional y de corte transversal. Los instrumentos empleados fueron Escala de Conductas de Sexting (ECS) y la Escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg (EAR). Los resultados muestran que no existe correlación concluyente entre las variables, sugiriendo que otros factores sociales y culturales, podrían influir más en estas conductas y en la percepción personal. La práctica del sexting resultó ser limitada y la autoestima de los adolescentes se distribuyó mayormente en niveles medios y altos. Además, no se observaron diferencias significativas en las conductas de sexting entre hombres y mujeres.

Authors:   Faculty of Architecture and Design, Istanbul Aydın University, Istanbul, Turkiye, Yasar Dilek
Published: December 2024

Green design as one of the important constituents of the sustainability concept, has recently become a preferred approach in the design of office buildings. Previous studies on the economic, ecological aspects and employee comfort/efficiency of green office designs with a rapid increase in number across the world, suggested the positive effects of the foregoing approach on both employees and the environment. Nevertheless, there are only a limited number of studies on the design character of green office interiors in the relevant literature. Accordingly, the present study aimed to examine the manifestations of design in green office interiors and discuss a less frequently addressed aspect of the green design, i.e., the design character. Therefore, the office buildings selected for the purposes of the present study were scrutinized on the basis of visuals and plans of the projects that were accessible to public. The results were suggestive of the fact that spatial organizations were designed upon a modular approach and with organizations that allowed flexible arrangements, that natural fabric and materials were in frequent use, that natural daylight played an important role in every design and that the human scale was attached importance in terms of dimensions.

Authors:   M.O. Auezov Institute of Literature and Art, Almaty, Kazakhstan, Kelsinbek Moldir
Published: December 2024

This study examines the portrayal of family in Kazakhstan's visual culture, tracing its evolution from traditional to contemporary depictions against a backdrop of socio-political changes. The study establishes why the image of family was marginalized in the Soviet period and has had such an explosive development in contemporary art. The focus of the research is placed on the nuclear family and the interpretation of the theme of family in photography, painting and contemporary art in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The purpose of the study is to investigate the transformation of the portrayal of family in the transitional period of socio-political changes. To achieve this goal, the comparative-historical method is employed to analyze artworks from the funds of the A. Kasteyev State Museum of Arts and the works of contemporary Kazakh artists over the past 5 years. Findings indicate a re-engagement with pre-Soviet cultural roots juxtaposed against the backdrop of modernity and globalization. The conclusion posits that these changing representations not only reflect the ongoing connection between past and present in Kazakh society but also contribute to a broader understanding of cultural identity and familial concepts, suggesting a dynamic interplay between adherence to tradition and adaptation to contemporary realities.
