Published: October 2024

Industry plays a key role in the development of the economy of any region, has an impact on the formation of industrial relations, the development and strengthening of economic ties, the creation of new jobs, which in turn increases the level of employment. In general, industry is the basis for building both the economy of the region and the country as a whole, it contributes to the economic development of all regions of Russia. In this connection, it becomes necessary to assess the further development of the region's industry. Using the proposed methodology for analyzing industrial potential, any region will be able to analyze the state of the industry in the future. The article considers a model for forecasting the industrial potential of the region on the example of the Bryansk region until 2035. The forecast made on the basis of the inertial scenario assumes that the factors acting in the past and present will remain unchanged. Calculations are carried out on the basis of trend indicators that emerged in the analyzed period, as well as the introduced dependencies and relationships. The calculation methodology is based on taking into account trend indicators using the extrapolation method. The article analyzes the following indicators: the number of large and medium-sized and innovative enterprises; fixed assets and assessment of their impact on the volume of shipped products. Innovative enterprises have a significant impact on the development of industry, they are the mainstay of the development of any sphere, in terms of increasing the competitiveness of the enterprise's products, increasing profitability and, as a result, increasing revenues to the regional budget and improving its well-being. This model is applicable to calculate the industrial potential of any region.

In the context of ever-tightening sanctions, slowing economic growth, and the use of restrictive measures caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, effective management of the financial resources of the region is a priority area of activity of public authorities. The restriction of business activity, deferrals and benefits for the payment of taxes and fees reduce the revenue side of the regional budget, while the introduced measures of social support of the population significantly increase its expenditure part. The purpose of the study is to analyze the effectiveness of financial resources management in the Saratov region. Within the framework of the study, the authors analyzed approaches to the analysis of financial resources management in the region, identified a comprehensive approach to management analysis formed in the scientific community, characterized by an extensive number of indicators used. On the basis of open data with the use of general scientific and statistical methods, the authors analyzed the management of financial resources of the Saratov region in the context of the sources of formation of the revenue part of the budget of the Saratov region, in the areas of budget spending, and also studied the deficit and public debt of the region. As part of the study, the authors analyzed the program structure of the regional budget and analyzed the management of financial resources of the region from the position of openness of budget data. The results obtained indicate that, despite the decline in a number of indicators characterized by steady growth before, the budget management of the Saratov region is at a high level. And the growth of the share of program expenditures in the budget and the high level of openness of budget data contributes to increasing the responsibility and transparency of the activities of public authorities in the region.

The article shows the most significant problems of functioning and development of the water economy of the Republic of Dagestan. The results of a comprehensive analysis of the state of the waters of the Caspian Sea are presented, which shows that the main pollutants here are coastal cities and other settlements with their sewage and other wastes of human activity. It is noted that most of the sewage water is now discharged into the sea directly, without passing through sewage treatment plants. The extremely unfavorable ecological situation in the coastal part of the sea serves as a serious deterrent to the development of the tourist and resort economy in the region under consideration. The authors argue that without progressive changes in the work of the port economy of the capital of Dagestan and its other coastal cities, success in the construction of seaside resorts in the Caspian Sea is unlikely. The article reflects the ecological state of Dagestan reservoirs and watercourses. It is argued about the need to return the Terek River to its natural delta, in particular, it involves the restoration of its estuarine reservoirs. Special emphasis is placed on the task of stopping uncontrolled development and recreational use of mountain reservoirs – the main sources of drinking water in Dagestan. The medical and hygienic condition of water supply sources, in particular, the level of contamination of groundwater used for drinking purposes, are discussed. The issues of water supply and sanitation (non-centralized, centralized, departmental and communal) are considered in detail. It is pointed out that urban and district centralized water supply systems do not meet sanitary and hygienic standards and almost all cities of the republic are experiencing an extreme shortage of treatment facilities. The course of implementation of a number of federal programs to improve the water supply systems of the population of the republic is described.

The article gives the concept of agricultural insurance with state support. The purpose of state support for agricultural crop insurance is to protect the property interests of agricultural producers from possible damage associated with the presence of natural climatic risk factors. In modern conditions, agricultural insurance is not effective, since it does not provide agricultural producers as a source of funds to compensate for losses in the event of an insured event. The article uses statistical data of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Buryatia for 2019-2021, as well as periodicals and Internet resources. The following methods were used: comparison, monographic, static. In Russia, the share of agricultural organizations in the total number of agricultural producers that have entered into crop insurance contracts and plantings of perennial plantings amounted to 59.2%. In the Republic of Buryatia, insurance companies have concluded insurance contracts with 27 farms. There are three organizations interested in concluding insurance contracts - CJSC "VSK", LLC "SK Soglasie", OJSC "Absolut Insurance" in the Republic of Buryatia. The need to use agricultural insurance with adverse natural and climatic conditions caused the decision to sign an Agreement between the Government of the Republic of Buryatia and the National Union of Agricultural Insurers. The main problems that agricultural organizations face when insuring are low solvency of agricultural producers; refusal to pay insurance premiums due to agricultural organizations by insurance companies; distrust of farmers on the part of the insurance company; low level of qualification of insurers in the field of agricultural insurance. Insurance companies offered: payment under insurance contracts concluded during the sowing period, in installments.

Authors:   Pskov Branch of the St. Petersburg University of the Federal Penitentiary Service, Dyatlov Yuri Nikolaevich
Published: October 2024

The article examines the socio-economic aspects of the essence of labor adaptation of convicts, the features of the content of its structural types and performance indicators at the present stage of development of the Russian penitentiary system. The terminology is presented, focused on solving one of the main tasks facing correctional institutions – ensuring the social adaptation of convicts and its important component – their labor adaptation. It is proposed to clarify its formulation as a process and result focused on the sustainable employment of former convicts in the post-penitentiary period. Interrelated types of professional, socio-psychological, organizational-administrative, economic, psychophysiological, sanitary-hygienic and cultural-household adaptation in the structure of labor adaptation of persons held in correctional institutions are identified and characterized. For each of the structural types of adaptation, a set of objective and subjective performance indicators is indicated, the use of which implies the implementation of an integral approach to its assessment. As a final result of the effectiveness of the work adaptation of convicts, it is proposed to use indicators of their employment level after release from prison, which will determine the programs of vocational training and labor adaptation of the special contingent of correctional institutions that are in demand on the labor market. It is noted that the steady employment of these persons in the post-penitentiary period not according to the professions obtained in places of imprisonment is also an indicator of their labor adaptability. In addition, the article highlights a number of specific socio-economic reasons that make it difficult for former convicts to find employment and negatively affect the results of the penitentiary system's activities for their labor adaptation.

In the context of limiting expenditures of the budgets of the budgetary system of the Russian Federation, which have developed under the influence of severe sanctions, as well as due to the consequences of the COVID-19 coronavirus infection pandemic, the problem of maintaining the priority of budget expenditures on state support for families and children is acute. Implementation of the plan of the main activities carried out within the framework of the program "Decade of Childhood for the period up to 2027" involves the development of health care, education, culture, sports, and tourism in the interests of children, which requires determining the volume of budget allocations in state spending on supporting children. By order of the President of the Russian Federation, starting from 2013, when drawing up the federal budget for the next financial year and for the planning period, a separate annex to the draft of the relevant federal law on the federal budget is provided, containing information on the volume of budgetary appropriations from the federal budget allocated to support the family and children. The constituent entities of the Russian Federation also bear significant spending obligations to finance and support children, which reflects the need to form and evaluate a “children's budget” at the constituent level as well. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of spending on children in the Saratov region. As part of the study, the authors analyzed existing approaches to the development and evaluation of the "children's budget": the methodology of the Research Financial Institute (NIFI), the Department of Budget Policy in the Sphere of Labor and Social Protection of the Ministry of Finance of Russia and the financial authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, methodological recommendations of the Ministry of Finance RF. According to the results of the study, the index of the Saratov region, according to the methodology presented by specialists, in 2021 was 0.91. However, a comparison of the goals and costs to achieve them shows the high efficiency of the Saratov region's spending on children and the sufficiency of the current funding.

This research investigates the impact of supervisor support on job satisfaction and turnover intention in the workplace. Supervisor support is considered a key factor in creating a positive work environment and motivating employees. The study involves the analysis of direct effects of supervisor support on job satisfaction and its influence on employee turnover intention. The research methodology includes surveys and data analysis from respondents PT. Polywood Industry Sinar Wijaya Surabaya. Statistical analysis results show a positive relationship between supervisor support and employee job satisfaction. These findings illustrate that supervisors who provide effective support tend to enhance employee job satisfaction in the workplace. Furthermore, the study explores the mediating role of job satisfaction in the relationship between supervisor support and employee turnover intention. Mediation analysis results indicate that job satisfaction partially mediates the positive impact of supervisor support on turnover intention. This suggests that through the enhancement of job satisfaction, supervisor support can effectively reduce employees' desire to quit their jobs. In conclusion, these findings imply the crucial role of supervisor support in increasing employee job satisfaction and reducing turnover intention. The practical implications of this research suggest that organizations can enhance efforts to improve supervisor support as a strategy to minimize turnover intention and enhance employee job satisfactionThe study provides in-depth insights into the dynamic how support from supervisors affects job satisfaction and the desire to leave the company in today’s modern work environment.

Anomaly Detection in Time Series Data
Authors: Liang Qin , Vanem Erik , Knutsen Knut Erik , Æsøy Vilmar , Zhang Houxiang
Published: October 2024

This paper presents a novel unsupervised approach for anomaly detection in marine diesel engines using a Transformer Neural Network based autoencoder (TAE) and residual analysis with Sequential Probability Ratio Test (SPRT) and Sum of Squares of Normalized Residuals (SSNR). This approach adeptly captures temporal dependencies within normal time-series data without the necessity for labeled failure data. To assess the performance of the proposed methodology, a dataset containing faulty data is generated under the same operational profile as the normal training data. The model undergoes training using normal data, after which the faulty data is reconstructed utilizing the trained model. Subsequently, SPRT and SSNR are used to analyze the residuals from the observed and reconstructed faulty data. Significant deviations surpassing a predefined threshold are identified as anomalous behavior. Additionally, this study explores various architectures of Transformer neural networks and other types of neural networks to conduct a comprehensive comparative analysis of the performance of the proposed approach. Insights and recommendations derived from the performance analysis are also presented, offering valuable information for potential users to leverage. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach can accurately and efficiently detect anomalies in marine diesel engines. Therefore, this approach can be considered as a promising solution for early anomaly detection, leading to timely maintenance and repair, and preventing costly downtime. Also, avoid accidents with probability severe consequences.

Published: October 2024

In recent years, nondestructive testing for civil engineering structures has become increasingly important. Ultrasonic testing is one of nondestructive inspection methods for civil structures. However, the inspection of civil engineering structures takes much time because of the extensive scope of the inspection. Moreover, in the field of nondestructive testing, there are also concerns about a future shortage of inspectors, so that an innovative effective nondestructive method needs to be developed. This study proposes an automatic defect detection approach using pre-trained convolutional neural network for laser ultrasonic visualization testing. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by applying it to a concrete structure with a surface defect. Grad-CAM demonstrates that the created CNN model in this study accurately predicts the position of a surface defect of concrete specimens.

Published: October 2024

Ensuring the reliability and safety of space missions necessitates advanced anomaly detection systems capable of not only identifying deviations but also providing clear, understandable insights into their causes. This paper introduces a novel methodology for the detection of systemic anomalies in the telemetry data of the International Space Station (ISS), leveraging the synergistic application of the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) and the Specification Tools and Requirement Methodology-Requirement Language (SpecTRM-RL). Integrated with machine learning-based normal behavior prediction model, this approach significantly enhances the explanatory of anomaly detection mechanisms. The methodology is verified and validated through its application to the thermal control system within the ISS's Japanese Experimental Module (JEM), illustrating its capacity to augment diagnostic capabilities and assist flight controllers and specialists in preserving the ISS's functional integrity. The findings underscore the importance of explainability in the machine learning-based anomaly detection of safety-critical systems and suggest a promising avenue for future explorations aimed at bolstering space system health management through improved explainability and operational efficiency.

Information Effects of US Monetary Policy Announcements on Emerging Economies: Evidence from Mexico
Authors: Alba Carlos , Carrillo Julio A. , Ibarra Raúl
Published: October 2024

This paper analyzes, using a VAR model, the effects of US central bank monetary policy announcements, and information shocks from this authority regarding its economic outlook on Mexican financial and macroeconomic variables. Shocks are identified by combining a high-frequency strategy with sign restrictions, which exploits the co-movement between the policy rate and the stock market in the US around FOMC announcements. A restrictive monetary policy shock in the US is identified by an increase in the interest rate and a drop in stock prices, while a positive information shock is identified when both variables rise simultaneously. The results show that positive information shocks from the US central bank improve financial conditions in Mexico, appreciate the peso/dollar exchange rate, lower the sovereign risk premium and forex volatility, and increase stock prices, real activity and prices in Mexico. In contrast, restrictive US monetary policy shocks tighten financial conditions, and reduce real activity and prices in Mexico.
Accessibility and expansion of the narratives’ space: convergent technologies and semiotics of exposition in an art museum
Authors: Aristova Ulyana V. , Persheeva Alexandra D. , Sharp Olga Liuka V.
Published: October 2024

The development of convergent technologies opens up new horizons for expanding the sensory experience of museum visitors, especially the people with disabilities and alternative perception. We argue that augmented reality (AR) technologies, mainly used to develop applications that visually expand physical spaces, may serve not only as a tool of inclusion and immersion, but also an instrument of reviewing the narrative of art history delivered by a classical museum. Although AR technologies are focused mainly on visuality, detecting and localizing objects and images, as well as mapping and augmenting the visual space, they could be employed to expand the museum environment by other sensory modalities, such as sound and tactile sensations. Increasing the level of information accessibility of museum expositions and the independence of the development of exhibition space by people with disabilities is possible, among other things, by providing them access to context-aware information (MoMA, Tate, Garage and other institutions provide examples of such type of curatorship and exposition design).Furthermore, we argue that the issue of contextualization of knowledge received by the museum visitor is considered should be considered in a broader sense: we take the museum as a space of narration, where the main concepts of art history (with its conventional semantic accents and limitations) are shaped, consolidated and delivered. Having analyzed the logic of a classical art museum exposition, we review the alternative models for presenting art history narratives (in curatorial projects of A. Malraux, J.-H. Martin and F. Lyotard) and argue that new media may become a tool not only for inclusiveness and immersion, but also for a special type of subjectivation of the viewer involved in the process of creative rethinking of the history of art. Inclusiveness, immersion and semantic flexibility provided by new media makes museums a space for an open dialogue. Instead of outlined birders and «ready-to-use» senses an exhibition can show how «other things are possible». We argue that curatorial experiments and media applications dedicated to art can turn a museum into a zone of seeking that awakens the viewer to an independent search for subtle meanings and stories that exist on the periphery of the classical history of art. And the new media extensions of museum space, considered in the context of inclusion, may also be viewed as a tool for building new narratives and developing models for a more flexible and complex interpretation of art history in a multipolar world.

Published: October 2024

Background: Misoprostol and manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) are both effective treatments for incomplete abortion. Misoprostol, a medication that induces uterine contractions, is often preferred for its non-invasive nature and ease of administration. MVA, a surgical method, involves removing retained products of conception using suction. Studies suggest that while MVA has a higher success rate and faster recovery, misoprostol is a cost-effective, accessible option with fewer complications, though it may require follow-up treatment in some cases. Objective: In this our main goal is to assess the efficiency of misoprostol versus manual vacuum aspiration for the treatment of incomplete abortion. Method: This hospital based randomized controlled trial study was conducted in in-patient patient Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Chittagong Medical College and Hospital from October 2007 to September 2008. A total of 128 women between the age of 15 to 40 years with diagnosis of first trimester uncomplicated spontaneous incomplete abortion was included in this study. Among them 64 patients were randomized in group ‘A’ as case who were treated with Misoprostol and 64 patients were in group ‘B’ as control who were treated with Manual Vacuum Aspiration. Results: During the study, where the mean gestational size of uterus was 9.52 weeks at the time of initial examination. The mean size of uterus in misoprostol group was 9.07(SD ±1.93) and that of MVA group was 9.87 (SD± 1.35). More women in case group had no child of viable age on the other hand increased number of women in control group had at least one viable birth. 36 (60%) out of 60 women in misoprostol group 26 (41.93%) out of 62 reported pain and 36 (58.07%) out of 62 women in MVA and 24 (40%) patients in misoprostol arm said bleeding as the worst feature. Thirty six percent women in misoprostol group and 16% women in MVA group reported that the adverse effects were easily tolerable. Thirty percent women ...
نظام الوقف في ظل سلطنة زنجبار 1832-1964م (زنجبار أنموذجاً)
Authors: الزدجالي هدى

إن تأسس (سلطنة زنجبار) في شرق أفريقية منذ عهد السيد سعيد بن سلطان 1804-1856م وحتى سقوطها في عهد السلطان جمشيد بن عبدالله عام 1964م كان نقطة تحولٍ مهمةٍ في تاريخ المنطقة؛ لما تمخض عنه من تغيرات طالت مختلف النواحي والمجالات الدينية، والفكرية، والسياسية، والاجتماعية، والاقتصادية، والثقافية، والعلمية، ومنها إدخال أنظمة جديدة في منطقة شرق أفريقية خاصة، مجال إدارة الوقف في ظل سلطنة زنجبار؛ مما أسهم بشكل إيجابي في إحداث تغيرات كبيرة في المجال الاجتماعي والديني والاقتصادي بين مختلف الطوائف الدينية، ومختلف شرائح المجتمع الزنجباري آنذاك بحسبان أن أكثر من 95٪ من سكان زنجبار من المسلمين منذ القرن التاسع عشر الميلادي، ومن ذلك المنطلق مثلت ممتلكات الوقف أهمية قصوى للتنمية الاجتماعية والاقتصادية لمنطقة شرق أفريقية عامة وزنجبار خاصة، لكن دخول سلطنة زنجبار ضمن هيمنة الحماية البريطانية أثر بشكل سلبي في نظام الوقف، وأدى إلى إحداث مشكلات تفاقمت وازدادت بشكل كبير حتى نهاية سلطنة زنجبار في عام 1964م.

هدفت هذه الدراسة إلى استكشاف الفروق بين متوسطات درجات مجموعات الكماليين (غير الكماليين، والكماليين المتكيفين، والكماليين غير المتكيفين) على أبعاد مقياس البيئة الأسرية لدى طلبة مدرسة الملك عبد الله الثاني للتميز/ إربد، الأردن. تكونت عينة الدراسة من )240) طالباً وطالبةً (111 ذكور، و129 إناث) تم اختيارهم بالطريقة العشوائية الطبقية. وقد أكمل المشاركون مقياسًا للبيئة الأسرية، ومقياسًا للكمالية متعددة الأبعاد. وأشارت النتائج إلى أن درجات غير الكمالين، والكمالين المتكيفين أعلى على بعد التماسك، والتعبير، والتوجه الفكري-الثقافي، والتوجه نحو الأنشطة الترفيهية، والتنظيم،  وأن درجات الكمالي الغير متكيف أعلى على بعد الصراع.
كما بينت نتائج الدراسة أيضًا أنَّ الإسهام النسبي الأعلى تأثيرًا لأبعاد البيئة الأسرية بالكمالية لدى طلاب مدرسة الملك عبد الله الثاني للتميز عند مستوى الدلالة (p<0.05) كان لبُعد التعبير، يليه بُعد التماسك، وأنَّ الإسهام النسبي الأعلى تأثيرًا لأبعاد البيئة الأسرية بالكمالية لدى طالبات مدرسة الملك عبد الله الثاني للتميز عند مستوى الدلالة (p<0.05) كان لبُعد الصراع، يليه بُعد التنظيم. وفي ضوء هذه النتائج تم تقديم اقتراحات للمرشدين والمعلمين وأولياء الأمور.
التشكيل الفني في مجموعة: (كان في قديم الزمان) القصصية لمحمد موفق سليمة- دراسة نقدية
Authors: العريني محمد
Published: October 2024

تُعَدُّ دراسة أدب الأطفال من الدراسات التي لا يهتم بها الباحثون كثيرًا؛ نظرًا إلى اختلاف خصائصها ومكوناتها والفئة المتلقية لها، كما قَلَّ الاهتمام بها ونشرها بعد عصر التطور التقني؛ فاختلف ما يجذب النشء عن السابق؛ لذا جاءت هذه الدراسة التي تنظر في التشكيل الفني في مجموعة (كان في قديم الزمان) لمؤلفها: محمد موفق سليمة، من خلال استقراء النصوص؛ لتتبع السمات التي تميَّز بها في مجموعته هذه من خلال نصوصه الموازية، وتعليقاته في قصصه، وتوظيفه العناوين الرأسية، والنظر في اللغة التي استخدمها الكاتب وحرصه على انتقاء الألفاظ، وقدرته على توليد القصص المتعددة داخل القصة الواحدة، وبيان أثر هذه السمات في المتلقي بعد تحليل النصوص ونقدها، ومعرفة تعامل الكاتب مع الشخصيات عند اختياره لها وتسميتها، والنظر فيما أحدثته تلك الشخصيات من أثر في تشكيل الحدث، ثم إيراد أبرز ما أسفرت عنه الدراسة من نتائج.

البنية الإيقاعية في ديوان المجيء للشاعر سعد الياسري
Authors: الحازمي وليد
Published: October 2024

إسهامًا في مواكبة النقد التطبيقي لمستويات التطور والتنامي في الأعمال الشعرية الصادرة حديثاً سعى البحثُ لدراسة ديوان (المجيء) للشاعر سعد الياسري الصادر عام 2021م؛ بسبب تميّز بنيته الإيقاعية، ويُعْزَى هذا التميز لعوامل منها: البناء الفني المعتمِد على شكل القصيدة الديوان، إضافة إلى ما اتّسمت به القصيدة من انضباط وزني أظهرت مقدار تجويد الشاعر لإيقاعه الشعري، وقد اعتمد البحث على المنهج الوصفي؛ إذ قمتُ باستقراء نص الديوان كاملا، وتحليل وزن جميع أسطره الشعرية؛ وتمّ بناء البحث على  مقدمة، وسبعة مباحث، هي: بنية القصيدة الديوان، وَالتدوير، والتكرار، وَالــجُملة الشعرية، وَالوزن، وَالقافية، والفاصلة الصوتية، وانتهى البحث بخاتمة تضمنت نتائج، منها:

اتّسم وزن القصيدة المعتمدة على وزن (مُتَفَاعِلُنْ) بِسِـمَة الانضباط الوزني، إذ لم يدخلها من الزحافات والعلل سوى الإضمار والترفيل، رغم طول القصيدة وامتدادها إلى (410) سطراً شعرياً.
بَرَزَت في القصيدة سِمَة الانضباط الإيقاعي من خلال: التزام الشاعر بتفعيلة (مُتَفَاعِلُنْ)، ثم بالتزام عدد محدد من التفعيلات في كل سطر، ثم بالتزام عدد متقارب من الأسطر في كل مقطع شعري، ثم بالتزام تفعيلة القافية الـمُرَفّلة (مُتَفَاعِلاتُنْ).
التزم الشاعر في بعض المقاطع الشعرية تكرارَ فاصلةٍ صوتيةٍ موحّدةٍ أسهمت في تعويض تأخر صوت القافية، كما استعان في مقاطع شعرية أخرى بفاصلة صوتية متغيرة، مع الحفاظ على سماتٍ صوتيةٍ مشتركة بينها حتى وإن اختلفت الحروف.
The Question of Scientificity in Translation Studies
Authors: Nakhli Habiba
Published: October 2024

A set of questions arise in translation studies (TS), as it does in humanities, when the question of scientificity is discussed: is it possible at all to establish a scientific study of human phenomena? If so, to what extent can we adapt the rigorous scientific methods to a complex and multidimensional phenomenon like translation? How can we approach translation complexity scientifically? This article explores the different impediments to the recognition of TS scientificity, and sheds light on the new trends in translation research, and how they have served this cause. Given that the aim of science is understanding phenomena, integrating and elaborating appropriate research methods to understand translation can yield significant insights into this human phenomenon regardless of its nature.
الترفيه في مجتمع منطقة العين من 1950 إلى 2000 سباقات الهجن – التغرودة – العيالة
Authors: الكعبي محمد , الشامسي بدرية
Published: October 2024

الترفيه هو أي عمل أو حدث أو نشاط يقوم به شخص أو مجموعة أشخاص بغرض الاستجمام والترويح عن النفس، يمكن أن تكون وسائل الترفيه عامة أو خاصة وقد تتضمن عرضا مسبقا يأخذ الطابع الرسمي أو قد يكون تلقائيا، وللترفيه أشكال عديدة متداخلة عبر التاريخ والثقافات تتغير وتتطور في ضوء المتغيرات الثقافية والاجتماعية والتكنولوجية لكل مجتمع.
          وما قد يفسره فرد أو مجموعة على أنه ترفيه قد يفسّره آخرون على أنه عمل والعكس صحيح؛ لذلك مع مرور الوقت اختفت بعض الأنشطة الترفيهية إلا أن بعضها الآخر تطور واتخذ موقعا بارزا في ثقافة المجتمع، كما أنّ بعض الأنشطة التي كانت تعبّر عن مهارات أساسية لبعض الوظائف والأعمال أصبحت اليوم رياضات تنافسية أو حركات استعراضية؛ لتصبح شكلا من أشكال الترفيه الجذابة والمشوقة، وسفيرة معتمدة لثقافة وتاريخ الشعوب التي حافظت عليها وطورتها.
          وسيتناول الباحث تاريخ الترفيه في منطقة العين وتطوره عن طريق المؤدّين وصولا إلى الصورة التي نراه عليها الآن؛ حيث سيلقي الضوء على نماذج من هذا الترفيه وهي سباقات الهجن والتغرودة والعيالة، وسيتطرق الباحث إلى نشأة كل عنصر محل البحث وترجمة لأشهر المؤديين وسيتتبع التطورات التي حدثت.
