On the Outside Looking In: Difficulties in Obtaining the Opinions of Muslim Religious Leaders’ Views on Domestic Violence Experienced by Married Muslim Women
Authors: Suleman Muhammed
Published: January 2023

In this paper I discuss the difficulties I faced in getting access to respondents in a qualitative study on the opinions of Muslim religious leaders on domestic violence experienced by Muslim married women. This in turn highlighted the need for me to reflect carefully on my own assumptions about my insider status and take into account how prospective participants identify me as a researcher. For the study on which I am reflecting, I chose an interpretive research paradigm which falls under the umbrella of qualitative research. This research paradigm was necessary as it places emphasis on context and nuanced meanings and was intended to allow me to interrogate the way religious leaders dealt with domestic violence and the rationale behind their approaches. Using this approach allowed me to explore some of the structural constraints that came to the fore via anecdotal research. This paper presents the challenges I faced and how I looked to overcome them and includes a detailed discussion of why the qualitative research approach was the most appropriate for this study, how I selected the participants, and how I experienced the interview process. Importantly, it speaks to reflexivity. In May of 2017, I set out to conduct in-depth semi-structured interviews within the Gauteng region using purposive and snowball sampling. Trying to access participants proved to be difficult and it became clear that a mistrust exists between the academy and some theological organizations. Insider/outsider phenomena, which were envisaged at the proposal stage, proved to be important.
Faking and Conspiring about COVID-19: A Discursive Approach
Authors: Scardigno Rosa , Paparella Alessia , D’Errico Francesca
Published: January 2023

In the more general climate of post-truth - a social trend reflecting a disregard for reliable ways of knowing what is true, mostly acted through massive use of misinformation and rhetoric calling for emotions - an alarming “infodemic” accompanied the COVID-19 pandemic, affecting healthy attitudes and behaviors and further lessening trust in science, institutions, and traditional media. Its two main representative items, fake and conspiracy news, have been widely analyzed in psycho-social research, even if scholars mostly acknowledged the cognitive and social dimensions of those items and devoted less attention to their discursive construction. In addition, these works did not directly compare and differentiate fake and conspiracy pathways. In order to address this gap and promote a wider understanding of these matters, a qualitative investigation of an Italian sample of 112 fake and conspiracy news articles, mostly spread during the first two COVID-19 “waves” (from March 2020 to January 2021) was realized. Our sample gathered news specifically coming from social media posts, representing easy and fast channels for viral content diffusion. We analyzed the selected texts by means of Diatextual Analysis and Discursive Action Model models, aimed to (a) offer “in depth” fine-grained analysis of the psycholinguistic and argumentative features of fake and conspiracy news, and (b) differentiate them in line with the classical Aristotle’s rhetoric stances of logos, ethos, and pathos, thus bridging traditional and current lines of thinking. Even though they may share common roots set in the post-truth climate, fake and conspiracy news engage in different rhetoric patterns since they present different enjeu and construct specific epistemic pathways. Implications for health- and digital-literacy are debated.
How Doctoral Students with Low GRE Scores Succeed: A Grounded Theory Study
Authors: Mulolli Dea , Gothberg June
Published: January 2023

Most U.S. graduate schools rely on the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) to predict readiness for graduate degree programs and differentiate between applicants in verbal and quantitative reasoning, critical thinking, and analytical writing skills. Many times, low GRE scores create a barrier to entry into U.S. graduate programs despite research showing that selecting graduate applicants based solely on academic metric thresholds does not guarantee graduate student performance and many low scorers still attain a graduate degree on time (Miller et al., 2019b; Pacheco et al., 2017; Petersen et al., 2018; Wang et al, 2013). In this study, we used a constructivist grounded theory approach to develop a theory on how low GRE-scoring students managed to succeed in their graduate programs. Participants included 17 low-scoring yet successful doctoral students from seven universities across the U.S. The results show students’ self-determination and emotional and financial support and the university’s climate contribute to the success of doctoral students with low GRE scores. This study builds a theory that admission review boards and faculty members can use when weighing standardized testing admission requirements.

When asked to give up an item, people often demand a much higher price than what it is actually worth to them. This is the Endowment Effect Although numerous marketing literature on the endowment effect have investigated into how ownership is associated with information processing, very few have considered the effects of prior-product experiences on the cognitive process. In this research, we study how positive and negative product experiences influence consumers’ information processing and interpretation. Study 1 provides preliminary evidence that both ownership and experience influences the recall of different types of information. Study two not only replicates the finding of study one but also extends the implication of study one by showing that both ownership and product experience affects interpretation of ambiguous information. The findings will contribute the consumer market by providing different patterns of information protocol between sellers and buyers and the influences of prior experiences.
UGOVOR O PREVOZU U FRANCUSKOM GRAĐANSKOM ZAKONIKU OD 1804. GODINE

Published: January 2023

In the paper, the author provides an analysis of transport contracts in Napoleon's Civil Code from 1804. The contract of carriage was one of the subtypes of the contract of hire, which is why it is close to what we call today a contract for the provision of services. The norms of the Civil Code that regulate this contract mostly concerned the responsibility of the carrier. Using primarily the Civil Code itself, but also other sources and literature that was created from the 19th to the 21st century, the author gives a broader picture of the transport contract, as well as the responsibilities of the contracting parties and the importance of this contract for the accelerated development of trade and economy in general in nineteenth-century France.

The subject of the paper is the consideration of certain segments of the physiognomy of the institute of fiduciary property as an atypical real guarantee, which is not institutionalized in positive Serbian law (nor has it ever been), but which has long been known by European economic practice, as well as numerous newer legislations, especially those in our close environment. The introduction of this institute was proposed by the Draft Code of Property and Other Real Rights of Serbia from 2011, which is one of the two drafts of Serbian civil law de lege ferenda (along with the Draft Civil Code of Serbia, which does not regulate this institute). Considering the importance of the reform of the domestic law of real security of claims, as well as the harmonization of domestic law with EU regulations, the author critically analyzes and evaluates the solution of the Draft from 2011, through consideration of the following issues: effect, protection and termination of the institute, titled as: law entrusted security properties and right expected security properties. The author evaluates the regulations of the Draft as expedient, developed and precise, and the institute as useful in many ways for future Serbian civil law. It is a right that would additionally affirm the market of services, especially banking services, in a way functionally similar to the lien, but different and distinctive enough, so that fiduciary property would have a formally legally recognized special place in the expanded numerus clausus of Serbian real rights in the future.

VEŠTAČKA INTELIGENCIJA I AUTORSKO PRAVO
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Lučić Sonja
Published: January 2023

Nowadays, artificial intelligence is no longer science fiction, but is present all around us. Just as artificial intelligence is increasingly affecting our daily lives, it has also gained importance in the field of intellectual property. Since innovative companies are interested in protecting their ideas in a technical environment, the question arises as to how the results generated by artificial intelligence can be protected. The issue of such protection has also become relevant in the field of copyright. For example, the Nanshan District Court in Shenzhen (China) ruled that an article written by an intelligent writing assistance system was protected by copyright. The company that developed the software for this system has accused another company of copyright infringement, which is said to have made this article available to the public on its website. The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff. On the other hand, Christie's is the first auction house to offer a work of art created by an algorithm. It is a portrait of Edmond Bellamy that was sold for 432,500 US dollars. This sale is actually a signal that works of art that are the product of artificial intelligence are slowly entering the world auction stage. Artificial intelligence is therefore able to create works of art and literature that are just as original and creative as human creations. In the paper, the author dealt with the question of whether the results generated by artificial intelligence de lege lata are protected by copyright, as well as whether de lege ferenda new legal solutions will be developed in the field of creative artificial intelligence.

In the paper, the author points to the constant increase in domestic violence. This phenomenon has been particularly intense in the last few decades and represents a very significant problem. First of all, women and children are exposed to this violence, but for almost two decades, men have also suffered from domestic violence. We meet this phenomenon in the Republic of Serbia, as well as in other countries of the world. This problem is particularly expressed in the United States of America. The Republic of Serbia is trying to solve this problem by passing appropriate laws and adopting the National Strategy for the Prevention and Suppression of Violence. That is why domestic violence has become the subject of wider social discussion and scientific research. It was also characterized as a criminal offense by the adoption of the Criminal Code and the Family Law from 2005. Our society's answer is unambiguously, because the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia from 2006 guarantees every person equal legal protection without discrimination. This one, the highest general legal act, guarantees to every citizen of our country, the dignity and free development of personality, the inviolability of mental and physical integrity. That is why, in our country, there are numerous authorities responsible for preventing domestic violence and providing protection and support services to victims. Numerous legal and natural persons and associations, as well as non-governmental organizations, have a significant role in the provision of these services. Special attention is dedicated to the protection of minors and the realization of their rights, safety and security. Finally, a large increase violence against men is evident in the last decade. In order to protect, support and provide services to victims of violence, regardless of gender and age, there is an increasing number of safe houses, as shelters for vulnerable persons.
PRAVNA PITANjA SMRTI ČOVEKA KAO USLOVA ZA TRANSPLANTACIJU ORGANA
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Živojinović Dragica
Published: January 2023

The concept of death - determining the moment when a person dies, is mostly in domain of medicine and natural sciences. However, this concept is not unknown to lawyers as well, particularly in the context of organ transplatation. Namely, one of the prerequisites for harvesting organs of the decesed, a potential organ donor, for transplantation purposes is that his death is diagnosed with certainty. In that context, the subject of the author's research is to review the current European supranational and national laws which regulate the issue of organ transplantation in relation to diagnosing the death of the organ donоr. In the first part of the paper, the author reviews the importance of complying with the „dead-donor rule“ and points to the medical concept of the moment of death. The second part of the paper is dedicated to to the analysis of the current state of legislations regulating organ transplantation. The author finds out that formal legal concept of the moment of death in European laws is developed according to the model existing in contemporary medicine. She also points to the fact that most legislations take brain death as the moment of human death but, also, that a number of European legislations reaquire, in addition, the existance of circulatory (cardiac) death for the determination of death. This double concept of the moment of death is considered more functional and appropriate in terms of closing the gap between the supply and demand of organs suitable for transplantation. Finally, the author concludes that death should be diagnosed by at least two medical professionals of certain specialties who will do it independently from each other.

The work is dedicated to the so-called model managed competition in the healthcare market. The reason for the creation of this model is the necessity to reduce the high costs burdening many states. Although much was expected from managed competition, the effects did not match to expectations. Additional costs and other shortcomings appeared. The healthcare market is a very specific market that cannot be compared with other markets of goods and of services. Therefore, "the market should not control the right to life, that is, access to health services."

Less than two decades of wider application of alternative criminal sanctions and measures in domestic legislation and practice is characterized by the constant improvement of normative, organizational and personnel capacities, but also by the persistence of certain obstacles, both in the imposition of these measures and sanctions, and in the process of execution of the pronounced sanctions and measures. The subject of this work is a critical review of the phase of execution of non-custodial sanctions and measures, primarily from the aspect of the role of the probation office in this process. The analysis of the normative framework and the situation in practice shows that the application of non-custodial sanctions and measures in practice does not reflect all the possibilities of the normative system and is still not functional to the extent that it could be concluded only on the basis of a positive growing trend of application. The non-custodial system is a relevant approach to the reduction of the prison population, but it still does not function as a stable and functional part of the overall formal reaction to criminality, which affects the decline of the prison population and relieves prison capacity, reduces recidivism and strengthens the processes of social (re)integration of criminal offenders. A planning and analytical approach to the improvement of the organizational and administrative capacities of the probation office is a key condition for the sustainability and improvement of the efficiency of the non-custodial system.

The importance of the protection of human rights in the overall process of social development has caused the need to pay more attention to this issue, both at the national and international level. It should be pointed out that the issue of normative protection is extremely important for citizens because it promotes the importance of human rights in general, but also the sanctioning of any form of their violation. Therefore, discrimination as an extremely harmful phenomenon must be clearly recognized, but mechanisms must also be designed to eliminate all the harmful consequences that occur through the implementation of discriminatory behavior. It"s very important to point out that in this area too, preventive actions and actions that should be aimed at mechanisms to prevent discriminatory behavior towards any individual are of great importance. If this type of behavior does occur, it is necessary to devise mechanisms through which the person who discriminates will be adequately sanctioned, as well as mechanisms that will be directed to remedying all the harmful consequences suffered by the discriminated person. The subject of this article will be a special type of discrimination, primarily gender and sexual discrimination, which refers to sexual harassment.

SAMVEL MANUKYAN, SONA BABACKHANYAN. Political culture and protest potential on Goris community. - During the 44-day Karabakh war of 2022, Artsakh (Karabakh) and Armenia suffered serious territorial and human losses, which caused severe negative consequences. The war radically changed public sentiments in Armenia. Besides, after the war, the prices of essential goods in Armenia started to increase rapidly, gradually worsening the social condition of broad population segments. The negative consequences of the war are especially severe in the Syunik region, borders with Azerbaijan and has strategic importance for the national security of Armenia, particularly in the border community of Goris, which is the last town on the only communication road between Armenia and Artsakh. These two influential factors might initiate public protests in Goris – an area of exceptional importance for the national Security of Armenia, worsening social cohesion and destroying the social order. The article represents the evaluation of multidimensional protest potential in Goris in the context of the political culture of the community population and the situation after the war. The political culture of the Goris community is identified in the frame of the theory of S.Almond and S.Verba. The analysis is carried out on the basis of sociological survey data collected in the Goris community in April 2022. The dimensions of the protest potential include lack of loyalty to the authorities, socio-economic conditions of the population, the fact of the 44-day war, the course of the war and its consequences, and future relations with Turkey and Azerbaijan. The best-allied countries of Armenia in the Artsakh matter were revealed in population attitudes. The perception of public protest probability in Goris is estimated. A mathematical model is built to explain the interactions between protest potential and political culture components and their multidimensional impact on loyalty to the authorities.

The effects of the COVID-19 virus pandemic are quite bad for people's lives both in Indonesia and especially in North Sumatra. The spread of the virus is quite fast from the interaction of every community, causing the government to make policies to limit the activities of each community. In addition to policies in limiting community activities, the government also makes policies by distributing vaccines for free to every community starting from the first vaccine, the second and last vaccine is the third vaccine (booster). The purpose of the vaccine itself is to stimulate the body's antibodies to recognize the weakened virus in the vaccine. The aim of the vaccine is to slow the spread of the virus itself. The third vaccine (booster) is a complementary vaccine given by the government so that antibodies can completely inhibit a person from being affected by the COVID-19 virus. Therefore, it is necessary to accelerate the process of administering the third vaccine (booster). This can be done by forming clusters in each region. The purpose of forming clusters is to be able to identify priority areas that should be given the third vaccine (booster). Therefore we need a technique that is able to group/cluster the third vaccine administration zone (booster). One technique that can be used is the K-Medoids Algorithm. The expected results of the research using the K-Medoids Algorithm are able to form a cluster zone which will later be able to find out which areas are the priority for giving the third vaccine (booster).

Data and information in the development of digital technology have an important role. Every activity or activity that uses digital technology is related to data and information, so information security and data confidentiality are very important. To maintain information security and data confidentiality, protection with cryptographic techniques is needed. Cryptographic techniques are related to encryption, which is where the process of scrambling data is carried out and hiding data with a key system, while decryption is the process of changing the condition of the data to its original form so that it is easy to understand. There are obstacles and problems ini digital communication, so cryptographic techniques are needed that have higher level of security and can be applied in digital communications. To determine the level of security in cryptographic techniques  required frequency anlysis. Frequency analysis on the NGG and GGHN algorithms is carried out to determine the level of information security based on the results of data encryption. BAse on the testing process on the NGG and GGHN algorithms, it will be known that the frequency of characters in the text varies. The more characters used in the key will affect the level of information security. The NGG algorithm has a higher level of security than the GGHN algorithm with a precentage difference of 0.000299967%. If the frequency of occurrence of characters in the message text that has been encrypted is more frequent or higher, then the level of information security in the message is lower and the password is easier to crack.

Utilizing an edge detection algorithm in an image will produce the edges of the image object. The aim is to mark the part that becomes the image's detail and correct the point of blurring of vision that occurs due to errors or the effects of the image acquisition process. This study aims to see the ability of the combination of Sobel and Canny edge detection algorithms (SoCan) to detect the inverted image. The image dataset used is the image of the Laysan Albatross, which consists of 10 original images and ten images that have been inverted based on the standard image dataset. The Laysan albatross is a large species of seabird found in the North Pacific. 99.7% of the total population is found in the Northwest Hawaiian Islands. The research dataset was obtained from the Caltech Vision Lab website http://www.vision.caltech.edu/datasets/cub_200_2011/ with dimensions of 500 x 271 pixels. Based on the analysis of 10 experiments carried out, the combination of the Sobel and Canny algorithm (SoCan) is not good at performing edge detection because it only has an average accuracy of 47.79% with an average accuracy error rate of 52.21%. Thus, in this case, the combination of the Sobel and Canny algorithms (SoCan) is not able to identify the Inversion Image

Since the Quran is the primary holy book for Muslims, information extraction research on Quranic texts, especially in a form of People Entity Extraction, is an important task for further Quran and Tafseer understanding. The challenges in extracting people entities from the Quranic text is that many verses have a complex structure, such as nested entities, making it crucial to build a system that can extract the entity automatically, accurately, and quickly. People Entity Extraction on Quran itself is a task that aims to extract people entities in a sentence or verse, such as the name of a person, the name of a group, etc. on the Quranic texts. Example of input taken from snippet Surah Al-Baqarah verse 46 which reads “Those who believe that they will meet their Lord and that they will return to him” from that input the people entity extraction system is expected can identify people entities i.e. “Those who believe that they will meet their Lord”. Currently, People Entity Extraction research for the Quran has not been widely carried out, only a few algorithms with scattered results have been conducted. In this research, we will use several supervised models which are Conditional Random Field (CRF), BiLSTM-CRF, and a pre-trained deep learning model based on IndoBERT transformers. We apply and perform a comparative analysis for the performance of those several models. We found out that deep learning based model, namely BiLSTM-CRF perform best at extracting people entities, whilst probabilistic based model, namely CRF, had difficulty in extracting people entities, specifically nested people entities.

The problem of similarity (similarity) of program code can be one solution to the plagiarism detection approach. Plagiarism raises a form of action and consequences of plagiarism itself if the source used is not open source. Plagiarism is an act of deception of the work of others without the knowledge of the original author, which violates a Copyright and Moral Rights. With the increasing amount of data and data complexity, deep learning provides solutions for predictive analytics, with increased processing capabilities and optimal processor utilization. Deep learning shows success and improves the classification model in this field. On the other hand, clone detection code with massive, varied and high-speed data volumes requires feature extraction. With the potential of deep learning to extract better features, deep learning techniques are suitable for code clone detection. For this reason, it is necessary to develop a clone detection code that can process data from a programming language by utilizing deep learning. Based on the results of experiments conducted on 100 PHP program code data files, experimented with several types of activation function and optimizer methods. The average value of the resulting accuracy is good. With a variety of activation functions that we use such as Relu, Linear, Sigmoid, Softmax, Tanh, Elu, Selu, Softplus, Softsign, hard, and sigmoid, as well as variations of the optimizer used are Adagrad, RMSProp, SGD, Adadelta, Adam, Adamax and Nadam , the best attribute selection is in the Selu function and the RMSProp optimizer. The number of epochs used is 1000, the number of neurons per layer is 500 and the best number of hidden layers is 10, the average accuracy is 0.900

Banyuanyar Village is a guided village developed by the Boyolali Regency Government to become an internet village. The operational activities of the Banyuanyar Urban Village Office also utilize the existing internet network. However, its use is still not optimal and is at risk of being attacked because it uses the same network as general internet users and the Banyuanyar Urban Village Office does not yet have a central server as a database due to limited funds and technicians. Because of this, the activities of the staff who work become sluggish and less effective. Therefore, it takes a Virtual Private Server Design that is useful to support performance. This design uses ZeroTier which can be used as an open-source VPS and VPN and has the latest technology. This research provides effectiveness and security regarding data transfer and network in the Banyuanyar Village Office. Because ZeroTier can be controlled and supervised by admins who can later provide convenience in network management.
