INCERTEZA DA POLÍTICA ECONÔMICA NO BRASIL E O CUSTO DA DÍVIDA DE EMPRESAS BRASILEIRAS
Authors: Souza Gustavo Henrique Dias , Barbosa Karoline Santos
Published: September 2024

As decisões financeiras corporativas vêm sendo afetadas pela incerteza da política econômica, mas os efeitos dessa incerteza sobre os custos de financiamento da dívida permanecem pouco explorados pela literatura. A partir disso, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar os efeitos da incerteza da política econômica sobre o custo da dívida das empresas de capital aberto listadas no mercado acionário brasileiro. Metodologicamente, foram utilizadas regressões de dados em painel por mínimos quadrados generalizados factíveis, visando avaliar as respostas no custo da dívida das empresas a partir de alterações de incerteza da política econômica. A amostra foi composta por empresas de capital aberto listadas na B3, com dados de 2010 a 2021. Foram utilizadas duas variáveis para avaliar a incerteza da política econômica: o indicador Economic Policy Uncertainty e o Indicador de Incerteza da Economia – Brasil. Os resultados permitiram concluir que a incerteza da política econômica influencia positivamente o custo da dívida corporativa nas empresas da amostra. Esses resultados são robustos quando utilizadas variáveis de controle defasadas. Dessa forma, os resultados deste estudo podem sugerir que gestores de empresas tentem evitar realizar grandes volumes de dívidas em momentos de maior incerteza da política econômica, a fim de tentar reduzir os custos da dívida desses períodos. De maneira adicional, os resultados do estudo também indicaram que em períodos de crise econômica há aumento no custo da dívida, enquanto no período de pandemia da covid-19 foram encontradas reduções, o que demonstra alterações de custo da dívida em momentos de diferentes crises.

Deficiências na gestão são um desafio comum em micro e pequenas empresas (MPEs) e um dos motivos é a falta de informações gerenciais. Em muitas situações, empresários limitam a contabilidade a cumprimentos legais e pautam suas decisões em intuição, o que pode ser inadequado para fins gerenciais. Como alternativa, MPEs podem empregar proxies informacionais baseadas em controles gerenciais formais ou informais, no entanto, pouco se sabe sobre a utilização e a suficiência dessas abordagens. Assim, este estudo objetiva compreender, a partir da perspectiva de empresários, como MPEs localizadas em Florianópolis (SC) empregam proxies informacionais no apoio à tomada de decisões. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas e submetidos à análise de conteúdo. Os resultados revelam que, no planejamento e controle financeiro, predominam proxies referentes a aumento do número de clientes e vendas, evolução de despesas e receitas, entradas e saídas de caixa. A avaliação de desempenho é informal e limitada à opinião de clientes. Os empresários utilizam proxies informacionais para auxiliar nas decisões, embora de forma parcial e não substituta à contabilidade. Este estudo contribui ao avançar no conhecimento sobre proxies informacionais, que podem ser uma alternativa para empresas que não dispõem de conhecimentos gerenciais, e enfatiza a necessidade de gestão em MPEs, visto que proxies informacionais podem levar a uma visão gerencial limitada.

Authors:   , Maome Itumeleng Judith
Published: September 2024

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is an organisation's ongoing commitment to ethical behaviour and economic development, as well as improving the quality of life for its employees and their families, the local community, and society at large. It is an unavoidable requirement for long-term development, particularly in developing countries. Although there has been some focus on CSR and business performance in large corporations, research on CSR in SMEs, particularly in economically depressed African countries is becoming increasingly important. To reap the benefits of CSR efforts, SMEs should be encouraged to create strategic CSR frameworks. Hence this study aims to investigate the influence of CSR on the business performance of a medium-sized manufacturing enterprise in the eThekwini metropolitan area. It will contribute to theoretical discussions and improve their performance. The data for this study was gathered in two parts, that is quantitative and qualitative. The pre- and post-CSR quantitative data were derived from business performance values obtained from company records. To collect qualitative data, both semi-structured and focus group interviews with the manager and employees were used. The SPSS was used to analyse the quantitative data, while Nvivo analysed the qualitative data. Furthermore, inferential statistics used in quantitative data included regression analysis and factorial Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), while qualitative data analysis employed thematic content analysis. The findings of this study reveal that the medium-sized enterprise has a positive attitude towards CSR. Emanating from his humanity and Ubuntu, the owner of the organisation was inspired to practise CSR. The benefits gained by a sampled medium-sized enterprise that incorporated CSR into its business operations were highlighted in this study. This study adds to the existing body of knowledge on CSR and business performance in South African SMEs. It adds to the body of knowledge by creating a CSR framework for SMEs.

This study aims to analyze the quality of the Lasolo river water, compare it with the quality standard for class I PP Number 22 of 2021, and determine the Status of Water Quality using the Pollution Index (IP) method according to the Minister of Environment Decree Number 115 of 2003. Water quality measurements were carried out at 4 points while the parameters measured were pH, TSS, and Fecal Coliform. Based on the data, it was found that the water pH parameter fluctuated between 7.0 to 7.8 obtained at points ST1 to ST4 under normal conditions, which explained that Lasolo River water met the established quality standards. An increase in the TSS parameter is shown at each point with an average of 70-74 mg/L range, which explains that the TSS value exceeds the maximum water quality standard limit of 40 mg/L. In contrast, the Fecal Coliform parameter at each sampling point has a measurement value of 0 MPN/100 mL, which means it is below the standard quality limit of 100 MPN/100 mL. The water quality status of the Lasolo River was determined using the Pollution Index (IP) method and found that all sampling points were in "lightly polluted" conditions with a range of pollution values between 1.0 < Plj ≤ 5.0 according to Ministerial Decree No. LH. 115 of 2003.

Determinants of Teachers’ Decision to Stay: A Causal Model
Authors: Elizabeth M. Malonzo, PhD.  , Rinante L. Genuba, EdD, DPA
Published: September 2024

A key challenge in any organizations today is staff/employee retention and these organizations made strategies to retain their employees to become the best staff. A common and significant problem in most human capital management systems in education, whether any type of schools or districts, is their incapacity to lessen high teacher turnover as stated by Odden (2011), and prominent in certain urban districts these high rates of teacher movement.  Ingersoll (2001) states that the first step to understand why teachers leave is also the first step in getting them to stay. In order for teachers to stay, they need eenvironments that give important professional support from school leadership, to encounter organizational structures that value respect and workforce conditions for induction and mentoring programs for new and experienced teachers. Teacher attrition is teachers who are inside or outside of education, to experience and encounter other professional responsibilities, but give priority time with their families (Macdonald, 1999, Miller & Chait, 2008).
Lipid Profiles and Liver Enzymes in Autistic Patients in Iraq, a Case-Control Study
Authors: Rusul Saad  , Yasser Jassim Dawood
Published: September 2024

his study investigated possible differences in lipid profile and liver enzymes between autistic children and healthy controls. The study included 32 autistic patients (26 males, 6 females, 5-10 years) and 32 age- and gender-matched healthy subjects. Blood samples were taken from all participants, and cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, LDL, VLDL, ALP, ALT, and AST levels were measured. The results showed that the levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, VLDL, ALT, and AST were significantly reduced in the autistic group compared to the control group No significant differences were observed in the levels of HDL, LDL and ALP. ROC analysis revealed strong discriminatory power for ALT and AST to discriminate between autistic and healthy children. The Pearson correlation matrix showed strong positive correlations between most of the measured parameters. These findings are consistent with previous studies suggesting altered lipid metabolism in autism. The observed reduction in lipid levels may be related to its important role in brain development and synaptogenesis. Low HDL levels may be associated with impaired lipid metabolism in autistic individuals. Significant differences in liver enzymes (ALT and AST) suggest the possibility of mitochondrial dysfunction in autistic children. This study highlights the potential role of lipid profile and liver enzyme testing in the understanding and diagnosis of autism. Further research is needed to investigate the underlying mechanisms by which these factors are associated with autism spectrum disorders.

Smoking is negatively associated with birth outcomes for Iraqi pregnant women, with the fetus being at risk of stillbirth, neonatal death, and severe complications. The present study aims to investigate and enrol the clinical outcomes of perinatal complications among Iraqi smokers who are pregnant. A total of 63 pregnant Iraqi women, aged between 25 and 45 years, who had given birth in maternity hospitals in Baghdad, Iraq, were recruited between March 2023 and April 2024. The study enrolled the women's intrapartum outcomes, their daily cigarette use, and the dose of cigarettes they consumed during pregnancy. The clinical data pertaining to both the women and the fetuses were determined in terms of complications, pain, obstetric outcomes, and quality of life assessment. The study revealed that women in the 25–30 age group were the most prevalent participants, with 24 cases. The daily cigarette consumption was classified into four categories: <10 cigarettes per day (29 cases), ≥ 10 cigarettes per day (20 cases), and ≥20 cigarettes per day (14 cases). A total of 14 cases were identified, with gestational age in ≥ 37 weeks representing 53.97% of the total patient population. The mode of delivery was predominantly caesarean section (28.57%), while the remaining 71.43% underwent vaginal delivery. Low birth weight was identified as a risk factor. Of the total number of cases, ten were identified as having perinatal complications, representing a rate of 41.27% among all patients. Additionally, 22 cases were classified as having a birth weight of less than 2500 g. There were four instances of stillbirth. Pregnancy outcomes perinatal ones are adversely affected by cigarette smoking based on the dosages.
Reclaiming African Identity: Analyzing Issues of Postcolonial-ism in Chinua Achebe’s “Things Fall Apart"
Authors: Mutashar Hussein Zaboon
Published: September 2024

Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart" stands as a seminal work in postcolonial literature, exploring the intricate dynamics between colonizers and the colonized in the context of European colonization's impact on African societies. This abstract delves into the novel's portrayal of postcolonial themes, focusing on the disruption of traditional Igbo culture, power dynamics between Europeans and indigenous peoples, and the psychological and emotional repercussions of colonization. Achebe was motivated to write the novel as a response to European portrayals of Africans in literature, particularly influenced by Joyce Cary's shallow depiction of Africa in "Mr. Johnson." Achebe's use of language, particularly his appropriation of English to convey African experiences, challenges Eurocentric narratives and offers a counter-narrative that centres African perspectives. Through meticulous depiction of pre-colonial Igbo society, Achebe reclaims African history and cultural identity, countering colonial misrepresentations and emphasizing the resilience and dignity of indigenous cultures. Additionally, the abstract discusses Achebe's critique of colonial ideologies, particularly Christianity, which undermines native traditions and fractures communal bonds within Igbo society. By contrasting "Things Fall Apart" with Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness," Achebe challenges demeaning depictions of Africans in Western literature and asserts the importance of authentic representation in postcolonial discourse. Overall, "Things Fall Apart" remains a powerful testament to the enduring legacy of colonialism and the ongoing struggle for cultural autonomy and identity in the postcolonial world. By using a postcolonial framework, the study aims to shed light on the socio-political implications of Achebe's work and highlight the importance of diverse narratives and marginalized voices.
At the EU Borders – Between the Use of Information Systems in Migration Procedures and Refusal of Entry into The Country
Authors: SŁABOSZEWSKA Agata
Published: September 2024

The reason for writing this article is the fact that the migration crisis that has been ongoing in Europe since 2015 is one of the greatest challenges that the European Union (EU) has faced since its establishment. It requires Member States to fulfill their obligation to ensure the security of the EU’s external and internal borders, while respecting common values, which include solidarity and human rights. The aim of the article is to analyze and evaluate the currently functioning migration policy, especially in the context of the use of EU IT systems in the face of the phenomenon of refusal of entry into the territory of the receiving country. This combination of two research areas fills a certain gap in the current literature on the subject. De lege lata comments and de lege ferenda demands will be presented, focusing primarily on criticism of the current system. The research used two research methods typical of legal sciences: the formal-dogmatic method and the comparative method. As a summary of the findings, it can be noted that investments are actually being made in new IT systems, the potential of which is still unused, and on the other hand, it is clear that basic human rights are not fully respected in the form of allowing applications for international protection. There is a need to reform migration management at the national level of Member States to be as consistent as possible with EU law and, in particular, its fundamental values.

Abstract. In today's global market, the movement of raw materials and goods in the free global market can lead to unintended consequences. One significant concern is the potential presence of contaminants and carcinogens, particularly when products originate from regions with less strict regulations and enforcement. This issue is particularly pertinent in the natural raw materials utilized in the global building materials market, where contamination by asbestos minerals can occur. Therefore, the screening of natural raw materials for asbestos content is crucial to mitigate the risk of exposure to carcinogens for both workers and the general public. In this study, we examine a challenging case involving a smectite–kaolinite clay from Gomsiqe–Puka, Albania, possibly containing mineral fibres. Detection and quantification of asbestos in this material push the boundaries of current experimental methods. Using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), micro-Raman spectroscopy, and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), we identified the presence of asbestos tremolite, along with a rare fibrous variety of diopside. EPMA data allowed the advancement of some speculations on the origin of the observed tremolites, showing that Al-rich tremolites are typical of oceanic settings and Al-poor tremolites are more similar to continental tremolites. We also investigated the impact of milling on the detection and quantification of mineral fibres, testing different milling times. This investigation is crucial as it can influence the classification of the raw material as asbestos-containing material or not. Our findings indicate that tremolite, cleavage fragments, and elongated particles break down into smaller World Health Organization (WHO) fibres with increasing milling times (1–5 min). However, prolonged milling (10 min) leads to overgrinding, resulting in a decrease in the number of counted WHO fibres with a length exceeding 5 µm.
