Attractive Factors of Environment-Friendly Daily Necessities
Authors: Chiu Wei-Chen , Ho Chun-Heng
Published: July 2023

Going green is increasingly important to the market. The present research indicates that functional and emotional factors can achieve the best-perceived effects when choosing an environment-friendly product. Therefore, this study aims to gather these attractive factors from high-involvement groups by using Miryoku engineering. First, we capture the factors through the Evaluation Grid Method and use Quantification Theory Type I for quantitative analysis. Then, generalize four feelings about environment-friendly products, namely “Assured,” “Responsible,” “Safe,” and “Comfortable.” We also define a linear dimension with short-, normal-, and far-sight for locating attractive factors and feelings. The result shows that high-involvement groups are more concerned about the long-term impacts of “Responsible” feelings, while low-involvement groups focus more on the obvious benefits of “Responsible” and “Safe” feelings. Moreover, the emphasis on natural ingredients is necessary for achieving “Assured” and “Comfortable” feelings for both the high- and low-involvement groups.
Conceptualising Kansei in Affective Work Events Counterproductive Work Behaviour Model

Published: July 2023

Studies on Counterproductive Work Behaviour (CWB) have attracted wide interest among scholars. CWB is a subset of unethical behaviour that seems unbearable since it intentionally harms both organisations and people in the organisations. In general, literature holds that CWB is determined by work events and affective state. However, most studies are restricted to examining a single work event which prevents us from understanding the simultaneous effect of multiple work events. In addition, prior research widely utilised a self-reporting mechanism in capturing the affective experiences at work resulting in common method bias and other issues like time constraints, low response rate, etc. Drawing on Affective Events Theory (AET), affective work events, and CWB literature, this article provides an important extension to the CWB literature by proposing multiple work events that predict affective experiences and CWB at work. Additionally, the Kansei Engineering-Kawakita Jiro method is introduced as a substitute for the existing self-reporting mechanism in capturing affective work events. This article offers theoretical insights that may facilitate empirical research to explore the role of affective experiences within the CWB spectrum. The introduced conceptual ideas are targeted to be a useful guide for practitioners to craft appropriate strategies to combat employees’ CWB.
Cross-modal effect between taste and shape controlled by curvature entropy
Authors: Hayashi Jumpei , Sasaki Hiromasa , Kato Takeo
Published: July 2023

In recent years, cross-modal effects in which perceptions interact with each other have been drawing attention. In the case of the cross-modal effect between vision and taste, the effect of the angularity of shapes on taste has been widely studied while there has been little research on the other features of shapes. Previous studies have shown that the emotional valence arisen from visual perception causes the cross-modal effect between vision and taste. Therefore, this study focuses on the complexity of shapes, which is said to influence emotional valence, as a visual stimulus and aims to confirm the cross-modal effect induced by its sensation. First, based on previous research, the hypotheses about the effects of the complexity of shapes on taste were made. Second, by using particle swarm optimization algorithm, closed curve shapes were generated based on curvature entropy, a quantitative index of the complexity of shapes, which indicates the randomness of curvature transition. Third, cup holders, which had these closed curve shapes on their sides, were created by using a 3D printer. Finally, by comparing the tastes of orange juice in these cup holders, the effect of the complexity of shapes on the perception of sweetness, sourness and intensity was confirmed. The results suggest that the complexity of shapes controlled by curvature entropy weakens the perception of sweetness whereas it enhances that of sourness and intensity. This finding can be used for reducing sugar intake in bottle packaging.

Authors: Benaissa Brahim , Kobayashi Masakazu
Published: July 2023

Product recommendation systems have been instrumental in online commerce since the early days. Their development is expanded further with the help of big data and advanced deep learning methods, where consumer profiling is central. The interest of the consumer can now be predicted based on the personal past choices and the choices of similar consumers. However, what is currently defined as a choice is based on quantifiable data, like the product features, cost, and type. This paper investigates the possibility of profiling customers based on the preferred product design and wanted affects. We considered the case of vase design, where we study individual Kansei of each design. The personal aspects of the consumer considered in this study were decided based on our literature review conclusions on the consumer response to product design. We build a representative consumer model that constitutes the recommendation system's core using deep learning. It asks the new consumers to provide what affect they are looking for, through Kansei adjectives, and recommend; as a result, the aesthetic design that will most likely cause that affect.
Ecological Information Interface Design, System Usability, and User Experience
Authors: Yu Chia-yin
Published: July 2023

This study focused on bird species in Taiwan, investigating the design and usability of an app for Taiwan's endemic bird species through simplified bird images, interactive framework, text icons, and user interface, along with heuristic evaluation and usability testing. The usability test results verified that the app system designed had a usability score of 74.773 with the level between "good" and "excellent"; and was rated "excellent" in dependency, stimulation, and novelty under user experience; was rated "good" in attractiveness and efficiency, and was rated "above average" in perspicuity. Furthermore, significant usability and user experience differences were observed in introducing bird information between the interface using narrative and text icons. When the same ecological information interactive framework is applied, the use of simplified bird images and text icons helps improve the system's usability, as well as the attractiveness, perspicuity, efficiency, dependability, stimulation, and novelty of the system in terms of user experience.

Published: July 2023

Although mental disorders have emerged as serious social challenges, social stigma, including prejudice and misunderstanding, hinder suitable treatment for the patients. It is crucial to monitor our internal psychological and emotional states to avoid the unconscious progression of mental disorders. This research aims to achieve emotion-reacting garments and accessories, based on a passive and continuous emotion recognition system in real time. First, this study proposes a systematic design for emotion-reacting garments and accessories, which employs emotion estimation based on facial expressions. Next, emotion-reacting fashion design is discussed for intelligent garments and accessories that interact with our bodies and mind. To achieve this system, a functionally extended collar made of transparent polycarbonate material is designed for integration with the digital camera modules. In addition, this study discusses how to create a physical stimulus on emotion-reacting garments and accessories. The intelligent garments and accessories using RGB-LEDs create visual effects that reflect emotions. In terms of audio effects, emotion-related keywords are employed to select the music played in intelligent garments. Finally, prototypes reacting to emotions are shown

Authors: Čok Vanja , Vukašinović Nikola , Kastrin Andrej
Published: July 2023

The aim of this paper was to systematically explore the knowledge landscape of papers presented at KEER conferences over the last decade. We collected all papers published in conference proceedings between 2010 and 2020. We (i) used a text mining pipeline to extract, clean, and normalize keywords from the Title and Abstract fields, and (ii) created a co-occurrence network reflecting the relationships between keywords. The network was then characterized at different levels of granularity (static analysis vs. time slice analysis and whole network vs. node-level analysis). The exploratory analysis showed a stable expansion of the network over time. The cluster structure revealed several groups of keywords that did not change over time and reflected both domain-specific and method-specific topics of research in Kansei engineering.
Influence of multimodal integration on spatial perception
Authors: Kim SuKyoung , Gopal Sai Lakshmi , Cho Youngil
Published: July 2023

To design affective spaces that promote stabilized living experience and user well-being, it is necessary to consider and be aware of how multiple perceptual information interact and influence the way we perceive space i.e. multimodal perception. This study aims to gain an understanding of how sensory cues influence the emotional evaluation of the spatial design. We analyzed how the change in levels of spatial elements was emotionally perceived in the presence and absence of scent and color. The results from the study presented that both scent and color significantly affected the emotional response to change in levels of spatial elements in different ways. The findings suggest that (1) in the absence of both color and scent, the spatial elements interacted to affect the participants’ moods related to being confused and feeling strained and tensed, (2) in the presence of a cool color (purple) and relaxing scent (lavender), spatial elements interacted to affect the participants’ mood related to feeling strained and tensed, (3) in the presence of a warm color (orange) and stimulating scent (orange), spatial elements interacted to affect the participants’ mood related to being unhappy. The findings of the study are worthy as they provide an insight into the influence of multimodality in spatial perception. They will help establish guidelines for incorporating perceptual information in spatial designs that provide stabilized living experience and enhanced individual well-being.

The role of the colors of interior accessories in forming an impression of a room
Authors: Takahashi Naoki , Hamada Yuri , Shoji Hiroko
Published: July 2023

When purchasing home interior furniture and accessories, several factors determine the color of the items that are chosen. People imagine how the item will look when actually placed in the room, anticipating whether it will fit in with the room or create the image they want. In order to help people make such decisions during shopping in stores and online, we analyzed the relationship between room color and item color. We prepared a photo of a home interior, processed the color of one item in the photo, and asked subjects about their impression of it. The color of the item was chosen from the colors used in the picture so that it could work in harmony with the room. Through the experiment, we found that even the color of a small item can affect the impression of an entire room.
Visualizing situations: comparing pixel and vector art style in a dining situation sketch
Authors: Bao Suomiya
Published: July 2023

Previous study indicated that the simplicity of a visualized situation could play an important role in comprehension and emotion. However, the effect of the art style was never discussed. As an art style with minimalist aesthetic, pixel art’s popularity and value are not well explained. This study is aimed to investigate the difference between pixel and vector art style by comparing one of the visualized situations extracted from previous study and the pixelated counterpart.

166 valid responses were collected (69 males & 97 females). Participants were randomly separated into 2 groups, presented with 2 different art styles. After observing the visualized situation, they filled in a questionnaire asking about their understandings, evoked emotions, how realistic it feels, and how easy for them to picture themselves in the situation. ANOVAs and multiple regression analyses were conducted and results showed that art style did not have a big impact on emotions, whereas for pixel art style, the older the participant is, the easier they could picture themselves being in the situation. Additional analysis using chi-square test found that people tend to believe the situation is in a past era when observing the pixel version. This study revealed the potential impact of pixel art style on people’s comprehension, tricking people to believe it is happening in a past era. This phenomenon should be taken advantage of in not only game design but also other media graphic design scenarios.
Market Reaction To The Announcement Of The European Union Coal Embargo On Coal Import From Russia In Other Exporting Countries
Authors: Rahayu Nabila
Published: July 2023

European Union announced the fifth sanctions package against Russia in April 2022, a ban on coal imports from Russia to the EU. The EU seeks to find an alternative country to fulfil the country's demand for coal commodities. In this case, South Africa experienced the highest increase in coal supply volume to European countries compared to other coal suppliers. The increase in coal import volume makes South Africa the possible alternative to fulfil coal demand for European countries. Therefore, as there is a huge increase in supply volume, the author intends to investigate whether or not there is an impact on the stock market in the alternate country. This research analyses the market reaction to the EU coal embargo on coal stocks as reflected in abnormal return and trading volume activity in the alternative country, South Africa. The analysis uses the stock price and volume of listed coal companies in South Africa before and after the announcement of the EU coal embargo. The researcher used an event study approach with an event window of 10 days before and 10 days after the announcement to calculate the abnormal return and trading volume activity, while the estimated period was set to be 100 days to calculate the expected return. The step analysis conducted in this study is to test the normality of the data first and then assess the hypothesis testing. This study's results show no significant difference in abnormal return and trading volume activity before and after the announcement. This result might happen because the EU had given a signal by proposing a far-reaching ban across Russia's energy sector through the fourth sanctions; thus, investors might have predicted the event in advance.

Authors: Ngan Le Thi Kim , Lan Tran Thi Thuy
Published: July 2023

When teaching a large class of students, the teacher's biggest concern is which method to use to partially satisfy the learning needs of the majority of students. Each class has its unique characteristics, different learning needs, and the same level of students between classes at Tan Trao University. Some methods work well for one class, but not for another. This concern becomes much greater when the level of the student and the level of the curriculum has quite a big difference. Teachers often have to add the function of "curriculum designer" for a particular class. In addition to teaching according to the school's general curriculum, teachers must prepare more types of exercises and support activities to help students become more interested in learning and learn English more effectively. In this research paper, the writer of this article would like to mention some solutions that I have applied to students of Kindergarten Class C K8 and their feedback on my solution.

The cutting-edge world, which is said to be a world of accomplishment, is additionally a world of stress. One discovers stress all over. As a result of the various inner and external pressures piled on students, stress has become a part of their academic lives in institutions like colleges of health sciences and technology. This study hence explored the sources and level of stress among students at the colleges of health sciences and technology in Katsina State. The relationship between stress and academic performance was also examined in relation to the students' age, gender, and level of study. Based on a cross-sectional study design, 169 male and 136 female students were recruited using stratified random sampling techniques from selected health science and technology colleges. Data was collected using questionnaires that measured presence and stress levels and the different sources of stress in the academic institutions. Academic performance was assessed from the students’ examinations results. Inferential and descriptive statistics were used for data analysis. To determine whether the research questions were statistically significant, Chi Square statistics were used. The analyses were done using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0 computer program. The average mean and standard deviation of the sources of stress are 2.1357 and 0.7699 respectively and they are worried of examination, too much continuous assessment, among others. Understanding these sources from diverse perspectives will assist the management in tailoring interventions that will combine the most effective strategies for students. As a result, improving the holistic well-being of a student will ultimately be productive not only for the individual student, but for the overall productivity of the institution as well as the academic performance of the institution as assessed by its students.

Authors: Rahman Zia Ur , Xianshu Dong
Published: July 2023

The flotation performance of clean coal with different reagents and pretreatment agents was investigated. The study examines the efficient recovery of anthracite coal using polyacrylamide flotation pretreatment. The mechanism of pretreatment agents and anthracite was investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), zeta potential measurements and focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM). The wetting behavior and flotation performance of anthracite and pretreatment agents were investigated using contact angle measurements and series of flotation tests. The coal samples were treated with reagents like kerosene, sec-octanol and pretreatment agents like polyacrylamides, (cat-ionic polyacrylamide, non-ionic polyacrylamide, an-ionic polyacrylamide), sodium silicate and sodium oleate to investigate their impact on coal surface properties and the subsequent flotation performance. The optimum dosage of kerosene was found to be 10 kg/t and that of sec-octanol was 1.84 kg/t. Moreover, the optimum dosages of cat-ionic polyacrylamide, sodium oleate and sodium silicate were 200 g/t, 350 g/t and 500 g/t respectively. The yield of clean coal of cat-ionic polyacrylamide was 70.70 %, ash content of clean coal of cat-ionic polyacrylamide was 11 %. The sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) has the yield of 66.66 % and the ash content of 13.9 %. The results indicated that the cat-ionic polyacrylamide demonstrated the most substantial improvement in flotation performance, particularly when used in conjunction with kerosene and sec-octanol.

Published: July 2023

The expression of genes that induce the transformation of meristems into the reproductive stage in oilseed rape is realized in conditions of low positive temperatures for a certain period of time. Such a flowering process is called the vernalization pathway. A four-factor field trial with 6 genotypes of head cabbage was set up at the Institute of Vegetable Crops in Smederevska Palanka, of which three parental genotypes were divergent by geographical origin: Scc, B and N, and three more F1 hybrids were selected by diallel crossing: Scc x B, Scc x N and B x N. In order to achieve a different vegetative stage, seedlings were sown at three sowing dates: August 15th, September 1st and September 15th. Transplanting was done on October 20th. The results of sowing head cabbage within the sowing period for oilseed rape were the induction of the flower mechanism, the absence of the head formation phenophase, and the realization of a stable seed yield. The experiment was performed in vivo in the control version and in the treatment with gibberellic acid - GA3. The influence of all four factors: season, genotype, sowing date and GA3 treatment showed statistical significance for the yield components as well as for the yield itself and seed quality. The three seasons in which the experiment was evaluated differed in temperature during overwintering: 2010/2011 was moderately cold, 2011/2012 was extremely cold, while 2012/2013 was warm. In the cold season, the seed yield was low, and reduced to the biological maintenance of the species, while the highest seed yield was achieved in the third - warm (2012/2013) season in the first sowing period. The experiment also confirmed the existence of an identical flower mechanism in the species Brassica napus L. and Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.

Published: July 2023

Biological control refers to the use of living beneficial organisms as well as the products of their metabolism in pest control. Weed plants are indispensable companions of cultivated plants, in which they cause substantial damage. Organic food production, human health care and environmental preservation impose a need for the production and application of bioherbicides, particularly in organic systems of plant production. Plant pathogens have significant potential as biological agents in weed control. The aim of the present study was to indicate the most important properties of the weed biological control system, with particular emphasis on the use of fungi-based bioherbicides. According to the organism they suppress, biopesticides are classified into bioinsecticides, biofungicides, bioherbicides, etc. Weed control using plant pathogens can be performed in three ways, by classical, conservation and augmentative biological control. Bioherbicides were initially introduced to the market in 1980, and the majority of them were fungi-based bioherbicides. The most common fungi included in bioherbicides belong to the genera Alternaria, Colletotrichum, Cercospora, Fusarium, Phomopsis, Phytophthora, Phoma, Puccinia, etc. The studies, development and final commercialisation of fungi as biological control agents face many obstacles, ranging from basic biological facts to social and economic factors. There are also challenges in the production, formulation process, environmental friendliness, duration of herbicidal action, and expensive and time-consuming registration procedures. Considering the success in weed suppression with fungi-based bioherbicides, the global market is still dominated by chemical companies manufacturing synthetic herbicides, while there are no such products on the Serbian market yet.
The vision of the future transport system seen through the measures of actual strategic documents
Authors: Stojićević Milica , Đorić Vladimir
Published: July 2023

In line with the expressed need to reduce GHG from the transport sector, the EU adopted the Green European Deal in 2019, which requires a 90% reduction in GHG emissions from the transport sector by 2050, and a Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy by the end of 2020. It proposed a comprehensive set of measures to be implemented to make today's transport sector sustainable, "smart" and resilient in the future. The strategy identifies a number of challenges in the road sector, so the Action Plan defines a set of measures, which primarily relate to regulatory changes. This paper analyzes five such changes, which are important for the road sector, with special emphasis on the elements of change. In the context of these actions, a review was given of the potentially analogous actions envisaged by the Transport Community in its Action Plan, contained in the Strategy for Sustainable and Smart Mobility of the Western Balkans. Through the analysis of measures from these two strategies, a part of Europe's vision and plan for the future transport system is presented, while the analysis of actions at European and regional level shows future challenges expected in the road sector of Serbia, both as members of the Transport Community and as candidate countries for EU membership.

Published: July 2023

Centrándonos en Argentina y España, proponemos una tipología de los mecanismos que el Estado chino utiliza para interactuar con su diáspora. Aunque el covid-19 ha vuelto a poner en escena la diáspora china y su vinculación con los países de acogida, rara vez se ha analizado el rol del Estado de origen sobre su vida diaspórica. Teniendo en cuenta los casi 60 millones de chinos de ultramar y el creciente protagonismo de la RPC en el orden internacional, estas dinámicas resultan de gran relevancia. Basándonos en el concepto de “oro y gloria”, encontramos una fuerte interdependencia entre ambas instituciones: mientras el Estado chino moldea las acciones de sus comunidades overseas en sus diferentes realidades económicas, políticas, sociales y culturales, también se beneficia de sus acciones en el extranjero. Extraemos nuestros datos de las noticias sobre la diáspora china en España y Argentina a través de la técnica de web crawler

Authors: Merzah Amel Salih , Ibrahim Abdulrahman Saleh
Published: July 2023

This article includes the preparation of luminescence materials from rare earth (Eu ) ion doping Yttrium Oxide (Y2O3) 70% and SiO2 25% and study the characteristics of phosphors for ultraviolet to visible conversion. The phosphor materials have been synthesized by two steps: Preparing the powder by solid state method using Y2O3, SiO2 and Eu2O3 with doping materials concentration (70%, 25% and 5%) respectively and different calcination temperature (1000, 1200 and 1400 oC).

   The second step is to prepare the colloid solution by dispersing the produced powder in a polyvinyl alcohol solution (4%) .

Powder preparation is achieved by mixing the powder according to weight percentage, milling by a ball mill using yttrium stabilized zirconia with the aid of propanol for homogenization then calcination the mixture at the above temperatures.                          The produced powder was characterized by X-Ray diffraction.

   Colloid preparation is achieved by dissolving the PVA in water (4%) then dispersing the powder into the solution by using the hot plate magnetic stirrer and ultrasonic bath. The produced powder was characterized by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Photoluminescence spectra (PL).

The results of photoluminescence spectra show that samples were emitting red color with wave length of 612nm. The intensity of emission was increased with increasing calcination temperature.

New types of hydrodesulfurization (HDS) catalyst Re-Ni-Mo/ γ-Al2O3 was prepared and tested separately with two prepared conventional HDS catalysts (Ni-Mo/ γ-Al2O3 and Co-Mo//γ-Al2O3) by using a pilot plant hydrotreatment unit. Activities of three prepared hydrodesulfurization catalysts were examined in hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of atmospheric gas oil at different temperatures 275 to 350 °C and LHSV 1 to 4 h-1, the reactions conducted under constant pressure 40 bar and H2/HC ratio 500 ml/ml .Moreover, the hydrogenation of aromatic (HAD) in gas oil has been studied. HDS was much improved by adding promoter Re to the Ni-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst. The results showed that Re-Ni-Mo/ γ-Al2O3 have more activity in desulfurization than Ni-Mo//γ-Al2O3 and Co-Mo/ γ-Al2O3 catalysts. The efficiency of hydrodesulfurization was markedly reduced over the Co -Mo/ γ-Al2O3.Also the result showed that Ni-Mo//γ-Al2O3 have a minimum aromatic content 15.44 %.

Tujuan review ini yaitu membandingkan validasi kedua metode sesuai parameter dan mengetahui kelebihan dan kekurangan tiap metode dari segi keakuratan dalam mengidentifikasi sampel amlodipin dalam plasma darah. Dilakukan article review dengan pengumpulan data dari tahun 2013 hingga 2023 menggunakan database google scholar dan sciencedirect yang disaring menurut kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Didapatkan 7 jurnal yang dapat dibandingkan menurut parameter presisi, akurasi, linearitas, limit deteksi, dan limit kuantifikasi. Presisi dan akurasi yang lebih baik adalah pada metode Kromatografi Cair Kinerja Tinggi dan linearitas yang baik adalah pada metode Kromatografi Cair Spektrometri Massa. Metode Kromatografi Cair Spektrometri Massa lebih mudah digunakan dalam deteksi kadar amlodipin karena mampu mendeteksi konsentrasi kadar sampel yang lebih sedikit

The purpose of the study is to analyze the sociological analysis of Ukrainian schoolchildren's attitudes towards the educational environment, learning conditions and current problems of adaptation in countries of temporary residence. The methodology used is an interdisciplinary approach that allows to integrate knowledge of different branches of science about the subject to form a holistic picture of the study. The empirical basis of the article is based on the materials of a sociological study of the educational environment, learning conditions and current problems of adaptation "Forced migration 2022 in the eyes of Ukrainian schoolchildren", conducted by an online survey. It is found that European education systems have responded to the challenges at the state level: they adopt regulations, send out recommendations and manuals for teachers, solve the problems of informatization of education, provide schools with specific tools, and increase the number of teachers. It is established that the main problems of schoolchildren abroad are: language barrier; significant differences in educational programs in Ukrainian and foreign institutions; double load (studying in a Ukrainian and foreign educational institution); imperfect informatization of education; multi-age classes in schools of the host country; studying new subjects for Ukrainian schoolchildren.

Descoberta em 1873 por Gerhard Armauer Hansen através da identificação do bacilo causador, Mycobacterium leprae, a doença de Hansen corresponde a uma enfermidade crônica e infectocontagiosa capaz de provocar problemas dermatológicos e neurológicos, e bastante negligenciada. O objetivo foi descrever o perfil clínico e sociodemográfico da hanseníase no estado do Piauí de 2017 a 2021. Trata-se de um estudo transversal descritivo, do tipo retrospectivo, quantitativo com utilização de dados secundários obtidos do SINAN referentes ao registro de casos de hanseníase. As variáveis foram estabelecidas em conformidade com dados do SINAN: sociodemográficas, microbiológicas, clínicas e terapêuticas. A população do estudo foi constituída por 5.372 casos, representando 3,44% das notificações do Brasil (156.147). Prevalência do sexo masculino de 56,79% (3.051), 53,21% dos casos registrados acometeram pessoas de 40 a 69 anos, sendo mais prevalente na faixa etária de 50 a 59 anos (18,84%), 69,14% de pessoas pardas. Classificação operacional multibacilar, forma clínica dimorfa, baciloscopia positiva, mais de cinco lesões, grau zero de incapacidade, sem episódios reacionais e poliquimioterapia/multibacilar/12 doses. A regional Entre Rios apresentou maior detecção de casos. Em conclusão constatou-se que o Piauí, mesmo apresentando melhora do quadro endêmico nos últimos anos, exibiu coeficiente de detecção geral muito alto, com perfil majoritariamente de indivíduos clinicamente sensíveis ao bacilo e, portanto, potenciais fontes de transmissão, uma vez que possuem uma alta carga bacilar. Em vista disso, espera-se que esse estudo forneça informações que permitam conhecer a extensão da Hanseníase na coletividade.

O presente artigo discute a municipalização da política de habitação social no estado do Rio Grande do Norte (RN), analisando as condições administrativas apresentadas pelos municípios do estado que compõem a região do Semiárido para implementar e gerir as estratégias direcionadas ao setor habitacional. Serão consideradas a estrutura administrativa municipal montada para o setor habitacional, as formas alternativas de provisão habitacional, bem como a capacidade financeira dos municípios analisados. A pesquisa envolveu um levantamento de dados e informações a partir das seguintes fontes: MUNIC, o SICONFI e a Plataforma Meu Município. Este artigo possibilitou ampliar uma abordagem crítica sobre a política habitacional no RN, ancorada no levantamento sistemático da política habitacional norte-rio-grandense numa escala analítica pouco explorada: o semiárido brasileiro, considerando-se suas particularidades e fragilidades, fundamentais para o desenho e execução da política habitacional. A análise da política habitacional no semiárido potiguar demonstrou que há um esforço considerável das gestões locais para responder à institucionalização da política. No entanto, a ausência de capacidade financeira e o insuficiente acúmulo de experiência coloca em xeque ações estratégicas de participação, planejamento e de implementação das ações habitacionais.
Abstract. This article discusses the municipalization of social housing policy in the state of Rio Grande do Norte (RN), more specifically analyzing the administrative conditions presented by the municipalities of the state that make up the Semiárido region to manage and implement strategies aimed at the housing sector. It considers the municipal administrative structure set up for the housing sector, the alternative forms of housing provision, as well as the financial capacity of the municipalities analyzed. The research involved a survey of data and information in the MUNIC database, SICONFI and in the Meu Município platform. This article made it possible to expand a critical approach to housing policy in RN, anchored in the systematic survey of housing policy in Rio Grande do Norte on an analytical scale that has not been explored: the Brazilian semi-arid region, considering its particularities and weaknesses, which are fundamental for the design and implementation of the policy housing. The analysis of the housing policy in the Potiguar semi-arid region showed that there is a considerable effort by local authorities to respond to the institutionalization of the policy, however, the lack of financial capacity and the lack of accumulated experience makes it difficult to create strategic actions of participation, planning and implementation of housing actions.
Sự Trỗi Dậy của Mỹ Học và cái Chết của Nghệ Thuật trong Dòng Chảy Duy Tâm Đức
Authors: Phan Gia Khuê
Published: July 2023

Giữa thời đại Khai sáng của thế kỷ XVIII, sự quan tâm về nghệ thuật nổi lên mạnh mẽ. Tuy Baumgarten là người đầu tiên đã sử dụng thuật ngữ “mỹ học” (aesthetics) và phân tách nó khỏi phạm vi triết học để trở thành một lĩnh vực nghiên cứu độc lập: khoa học về cái đẹp; nhưng những khảo sát của Kant mới thực sự thiết lập cơ sở và gợi hứng để mỹ học nổi lên như một hiện tượng trong chủ nghĩa Duy tâm Đức. Tuy vậy, cũng chính bởi sự thay thế của “mỹ học” đối với “triết học nghệ thuật” đã dẫn đến điều mà Hegel chỉ ra như là sự kết thúc của nghệ thuật, hay như cách nói ấn tượng hơn: cái chết của nghệ thuật.

 

Abstract

During the Enlightenment era of the 18th century, there was a strong interest in art. While Baumgarten was the first to use the term "aesthetics" and separate it from the realm of philosophy to become an independent field of study - the science of beauty; it was Kant's investigations that truly established the foundation and inspiration for aesthetics to emerge as a phenomenon within German Idealism. However, it was also precisely due to the replacement of "aesthetics" with "philosophy of art" that led to what Hegel referred to as the end of art or, more impressively, the death of art.
