Unraveling Rural Land Conflicts in Bangladesh: Stakeholders, Power Dynamics, and Paths to Resolution
Authors: Rahman Md. Zarif , Korobi Sadia Aktar
Published: March 2024

Conflicts over rural land have plagued Bangladesh since its independence. Rural land issues continue to remain unresolved, and violence related to land is still on the rise. The investigation of those engaged in these disputes and the dynamics of their relationships, however, has received very little attention. The current study maps those involved in land conflicts and their relational interplay in the context of rural Bangladesh. The study utilizes qualitative methods of data collection, including KII interviews, focus group discussions, and expert interviews. Through purposive sampling, key informant interviews, and focus group discussions involved a group of relevant stakeholders in land conflicts in the study areas who provided needed information, ideas, and insights on land issues in the area. The study finds that the power structure of the village affects benefit distribution and the resolution of land disputes. Local political leaders and “Matbors” have an impact on how disputes are resolved. Law enforcement authorities are ineffective at resolving violent conflicts, and corrupt land office staff are also of no help, prolonging such conflicts. The study recommends implementing empathy-building workshops, digitizing the land management system, and improving the judicial process to reduce disputes among stakeholders in rural Bangladesh.

ON THE ISSUE OF IMPROVING LEGAL REGULATION OF DIGITAL FINANCIAL ASSETS IN RUSSIA
Authors: РУСТАМОВ П.А.
Published: March 2024

Автор приходит к выводу, что, поскольку исследуется новый объект права, то только практи- ческая деятельность, относящаяся к ЦФА, позволяет с определенной гарантированностью рассуждать и ана- лизировать правовую действительность, возникающую по поводу ЦФА. Поэтому в настоящее время можно только предполагать возможные варианты использования ЦФА, но, исходя из логики законодателя касательно цифровой валюты, ЦФА будут представлять собой полноценные имущественные права, которые не будут под- вергаться сомнению, как у правоприменителей, так и у общественности.

The author comes to the conclusion that since a new object of law is being studied, only practical activities related to DFA allow one to reason and analyze the legal reality arising regarding DFA with a certain certainty. Therefore, at present, one can only speculate on possible options for using DFAs, but based on the logic of the legislator regarding digital currency, DFAs will represent full-fledged property rights that will not be questioned by both law enforcers and the public.

Authors: ЕМЕЛИН С.М. , САЛИХОВА Э.А.
Published: March 2024

Цель работы – кратко охарактеризовать потенциал социально-антропологического и когни- тивного подходов в числе известных в юриспруденции и юрислингвистике при описании классических моде- лей экстремистского поведения и при выявлении идеологических установок в конфликтных текстах. Использо- вались формально-юридический, сопоставительный, структурно-функциональный метод, отдельные приемы лингвоэкспертологического, психолингвистического инструментария. Из избранных методологических прин- ципов отобраны объективность оценки фактов и событий, нейтральность исследовательской позиции, учёт социально-политического контекста. Обобщенно представлены имеющиеся в арсенале различных концепций подходы, исследованы заявленные в теме с акцентом на их возможностях в разработке адекватной системы противодействия экстремизму. Значимость работы заключается также в том, что в ней рассмотрена специфика моделей поведения и мышления экстремистов как жестко прагматичных и мотивированных соответствующими идеологемами, обусловленных когнитивными искажениями.

The purpose of the work is to briefly characterize the possibilities of socio-anthropological and cognitive approaches, among those known in jurisprudence and jurislinguistics, in describing classical models of extremist behavior and in identifying the ideological settings of conflict texts and reconstructing social rituals. Formal-legal, comparative, structural-functional methods, and individual techniques of linguo-expertological and psycholinguistic tools were used. Of the selected methodological principles, the most important are the objectivity of the assessment of facts and events, the neutrality of the research position, and consideration of the socio-political context. The article summarizes the approaches available in the arsenal of various concepts and examines those stated in the topic with an emphasis on their capabilities in developing an adequate system for countering extremism. The significance of the work also lies in the fact that it examines the specifics of extremist behavior patterns and thinking as strictly pragmatic and motivated by corresponding ideologies, due to the normal functioning of the psyche and cognitive distortions.

Published: March 2024

В современном обществе активно выстраиваются инклюзивные институты, и появляются все новые практики помощи социально незащищенным слоям населения. В связи с этим особую актуальность об- ретает проблема, связанная с занятостью и трудоустройством людей с ограниченными возможностями. Лица с ограниченными возможностями могут испытывать некоторые трудности в представленном вопросе в силу того, что определенные работодатели под различными предлогами могут отказывать им в найме на работу (или иным образом ограничивать права) из-за физической неприспособленности таких людей, по их мнению, к различным видам деятельности. Именно для защиты прав и законных интересов данных лиц действует российское законо- дательство в области регламентирования условий труда инвалидов.

Inclusive institutions are actively being built in modern society and new practices of helping socially vulnerable segments of the population are emerging. In this regard, the problem of employment and employment of people with disabilities is becoming particularly relevant. Persons with disabilities may experience some difficulties in the presented question due to the fact that certain employers, under various pretexts, may refuse to hire them (or otherwise restrict their rights) due to the physical inability of such people, in their opinion, to various types of activities. It is precisely to protect the rights and legitimate interests of these persons that Russian legislation in the field of regulating the working conditions of persons with disabilities is in force.

Authors: Sutrisno Sutrisno , Fahmi Moh. Ifan
Published: March 2024

The emergence of the term religious moderation in Indonesia in recent times is closely related to various phenomena of intolerance, radicalism, and terrorism that occur in Indonesia. Moderation is a life view that always prioritizes the attitude of tolerance and always takes the middle road from two opposing attitudes.
Islamic boarding schools are an integral part of the institutions that exist in Indonesia which instill religious values and practices in their students for the advancement of national development. As a subculture rooted in Islamic culture in Indonesia, Education in boarding schools, not only provides educational facilities and practices, but also instills a number of values or norms. One of them is the Islamic boarding school At-Tahdzib Rejoagung in Ngoro district.
The Islamic boarding school At-Tahdzib as an educational institution has proven to be quite excellent in producing generations of the nation who have good character. One of the proofs is the large number of alumni of At-Tahdzib pesantren who are trusted by the community to become educators in various formal and non-formal educational institutions. This is certainly inseparable from the role of kiai leadership who are also teachers in the educational process. The role of leadership is an attitude and behavior in influencing human resources, so that they are willing to carry out their duties to achieve organizational goals effectively and efficiently.
This study aims to examine the leadership of kiai in instilling the values of religious moderation in Islamic boarding schools. More specifically, this article intends to identify strategies and analyze the influence of kiai leadership in instilling the values of religious moderation at the Islamic boarding school At Tahdzib Ngoro Jombang

A Concise Review on role of QSAR in Drug Design
Authors: Prema V. , Sivaramakrishnan Meera , Rabiya M.
Published: March 2024

QSAR, Quantitative structure-activity relationship has paved a way for itself into the practice of agrochemistry, pharmaceutical chemistry, toxicology and eventually most faces of chemistry for almost 40 years. Quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) have been applied for decades in the establishment of relationships between physicochemical properties of chemical substances and their biological activities for making prediction regarding the activities of new chemical compounds using reliable statistical model. The fundamental principle underlying the decorum is that the difference in structural properties is responsible for the variations in biological activities of the compounds. However, this approach has only a limited utility for designing a new molecule due to the lack of consideration of the 3D structure of the molecules. Even though the trial-and-error factor which is involved in the development of a new drug cannot be ignored completely, QSAR possibly decreases the number of compounds to be synthesized by facilitating the selection of the most promising lead candidates. Many success stories of QSAR have attracted the medicinal chemists to investigate the relationships of structural properties with biological activity.1 Conscientious analysis and modification of independent variables has led to an expansion in development of molecular and atom-based descriptors, as well as descriptors derived from quantum chemical calculations and spectroscopy. The improvement in high-through-put screening procedures also contributes for rapid screening of large number of compounds under similar test conditions and thus minimizes the risk of combining variable test data from different sources. The overall goals of QSAR are to retain their original essence and remain focused on the predictive ability of the approach and its receptiveness to mechanistic interpretation.

Every day, millions of tons of plastic waste are produced by humans which causes severe impacts on our ecosystem and biodiversity. Nowadays plastic is the main anthropogenic waste material globally due to irrational production, inappropriate and unscientific disposal, and inadequate recycling management of plastic. As a result, the fauna of the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems both are in danger of plastic pollution. Birds are an important part of our biodiversity and they are affected by plastic pollution. Nowadays, birds use plastic debris for different purposes which ultimately causes the death of birds. Plastic waste occupies the global landscape and has parallel impacts on different species of insects. Bees have started to use plastics as brood material. Marine and land mammals both are severely affected by plastic pollution. Plastic pollution is an emergency danger for coral reefs and all food webs do exist at coral reefs. Every day many fish lose their life by suffocation from entering plastic bags and eating or entangling plastic debris. Plastic pollution has many harmful effects on amphibians and reptiles such as habitat disruption, disease transmission, reproductive and physical health problems, etc. In this book chapter, we have discussed the effect of plastic pollution on different types of faunal survival as well as diversity and also probable sustainable solutions to save our mother earth and its fauna from plastic pollution.

The vast majority of modern consumer goods are made of plastic. They play a significant role in practically every product category and are widely incorporated into modern living. But nowadays, plastic makes up a significant portion of litter and is widely documented in the context of the marine environment. Globally, plastic pollution is acknowledged as a serious problem for marine and coastal ecosystems. A major worldwide concern that affects the marine industry, tourism, marine life, and human health is the unusual and ongoing build-up of growing plastic contaminants into aquatic ecosystems. These pollutants have the potential to directly or indirectly impair ecological processes. Even though plastic has numerous advantages, it is obvious that society’s dependence on plastics has to be addressed. On the other hand, substitute materials for plastic products or ways to reduce the release of plastic also need to be evaluated to ensure that their qualities and effects on the environment are more favorable.

Peranan teknologi informasi khususnya dalam dunia Pendidikan kian hari semakin berkembang. Di era globalisasi seperti sekarang ini, pemanfaatan teknologi informasi menjadi hal yang sangat penting dalam meningkatkan kualitas pendidikan baik dari segi pelayanan maupun pembelajaran. Namun, manfat dari kemajuan teknologi yang ada ternyata tidak sepenuhnya bisa dirasakan oleh masyarakat. Seperti halnya pada SMPN 1 Sambit Ponorogo, kurangnya pengetahuan pihak sekolah terkait pemanfaatan teknologi informasi membuat segala bentuk aktifitas pembelajaran dan pelayanan pendidikan sampai saat ini masih dilakukan secara manual. Selain membuat kualitas pembelajaran tidak bisa sepenuhnya dioptimalkan, permasalahan seperti ini juga menyulitkan orangtua siswa dalam mendapatkan informasi terkait informasi sekolah serta perkembangan belajar anak. Berangkat dari permasalahan tersebut, maka peneliti melalui penelitian ini bermaksud untuk merancang desain antar muka website akademik sekolah yang nantinya dapat dikembangkan lebih lanjut oleh pihak SMPN 1 Sambit Ponorogo sebagai salah satu sarana pendukung belajar mengajar sekaligus sebagai media bagi para orangtua siswa untuk dapat mengontrol perkembangan belajar anak serta memudahkan dalam mendapatkan informasi seputar sekolah.

Dengan memperhitungkan pengguna aplikasi yang merupakan para orang tua, guru, serta siswa, maka perancangan desain antar muka website SMPN 1 Sambit Ponorogo nantinya haruslah memiliki desain User interface yang familiar dan mudah digunakan sehingga perancangan User interface aplikasi ini nantinya akan menggunakan Metode User Centered Design (UCD) yang menempatkan pengguna website sebagai pertimbangan utama dalam proses perancangan.

Quel che resta della prevenzione delle otiti (e infezioni respiratorie): xilitolo e dintorni
Authors: Marchetti Federico
Published: March 2024

Over the years, the prevention of episodes of upper respiratory tract infections and in particular of acute otitis media have always been discussed. A recent randomized controlled clinical trial has re-proposed the evaluation of the efficacy of a natural sugar, xylitol. The results were not favourable as the use of xylitol in children aged 1-5 years did not reduce the frequency of episodes of otitis and upper respiratory tract infection compared to placebo. An opportunity to reflect and discuss the issue of the prophylaxis of “physiological” respiratory infections, which must always be evaluated in relation to the available evidence of efficacy: whether we are talking about drugs or what is called complementary medicine.

Aim: To estimate the frequency of vascular loops in the anterior inferior cerebellar artery in the otologic symptomized patients using CISS sequence on 3.0 Tesla MRI” in Pakistani populations. Methodology: Cross sectional descriptive study was conducted in Armed Forces Institute of Radiology and Imaging, Military Hospital Rawalpindi from 12th April 2019 to 11th October 2019. One hundred patients of both genders between age of 20-60 years were presented with otologic symptoms i.e. tinnitus, dizziness and hearing loss (unilateral/bilateral) and advised MRI brain. Patients with any diagnosed arterial, venous and arterio-venous cause of otologic symptoms, severe claustrophobia and with internal cardiac pacemakers or any other metallic foreign body were excluded. Patients were undergone MRI brain on 3.0 Tesla. TIWS, T2WS and CISS sequences were taken along with post-contrast T1WS images. Results: There was 20 to 60 years of patients range of age having mean age of 38.38±12.05 years and majority of patients 65% between 20-40 years. There were 53(53%) males and 47(47%) females and having 1.2:1 ratio of male to female. Frequency of anterior inferior cerebellar artery vascular loops in the otologic symptomized patients using CISS sequence on 3.0 Tesla MRI was seen in 59(59%) patients. Conclusion: The frequency of anterior inferior cerebellar artery vascular loops in the otologic symptomized patients using CISS sequence on 3.0 Tesla MRI is very high.

Effectiveness of Symbiotic in Treatment of Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria: RCT
Authors: Bux Muhammad Ali Lal , Laique Talha
Published: March 2024

Background: A challenging health issue nowadays is chronic spontaneous urticaria, which affects almost 2% of the normal population, with half of its sufferers failing to respond to standard treatment therapy. Aim: To determine the efficacy and safety of a symbiotic in the treatment of chronic spontaneous urticaria. Method: This was a randomized trial. This experiment at the Lahore General Hospital involved 204 participants with chronic spontaneous urticaria. Participants were randomized into two groups: oral antihistamines plus an oral probiotic sachet (1.5g) twice daily or oral antihistamines alone for eight weeks. The Urticaria Activity Score was used to evaluate efficacy and safety, while the validated Dermatology Life Quality Index assessed quality of life. An independent sample t-test and a Mann-Whitney test were used to compare the age, UAS7, and DLQI score between the two groups. A p-value ≤0.05 was considered significant. Results: Both treatments significantly improved the UAS7 and DLQI scores from baseline; however, the experimental group produced a significantly greater reduction in the UAS7 and DLQI scores compared to the control group. There was no significant difference in the mean baseline score between both groups. A Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to compare the mean DLQI score before and after treatment in both groups. The results revealed that there was a significant reduction in score from the baseline in both groups. Practical Implication: Due to a lack of clinical data regarding the effective treatment of this health issue, we planned the current project. The results of this study helped us assess the efficacy of probiotics as adjuvant therapy in our local population and added to our local literature. Conclusion: It was concluded that the combination of probiotics and antihistamines showed better efficacy than the antihistamine alone, based on the UAS7 and DLQI scores; hence, they can be used as treatment options among patients. Although further research must be done to validate these findings. Keywords: Efficacy, Safety, Probiotics, DLQI scores, Chronic Urticaria.
