Hacia el aprovechamiento energético de los raquis de palma en calderas de biomasa
Authors: Bayona Roa Camilo Andrés , García Navarro Juan Guillermo , Jeisson Gacha , Ricaurte Héctor
Published: March 2023

Quemar raquis de palma (también llamado tusa) en las calderas de biomasa trae consigo la superación de distintos problemas tecnológicos asociados a ese biocombustible. En particular, el alto contenido de potasio, fósforo y cloro son elementos potencialmente perjudiciales por la corrosión que generan en las superficies de transferencia de calor. En este artículo se discute cómo superar las problemáticas tecnológicas para que las calderas generadoras de vapor y electricidad en plantas de beneficio de aceite de palma puedan operar quemando raquis que anteriormente no se usaba en la generación de energía en la industria. Estas consideraciones, aunque técnicas, se orientan a mejorar la sostenibilidad y la competitividad de la agroindustria de la palma de aceite.

This year’s 43rd Annual Scientific Meeting focuses on the theme “COVID-19 Pandemic: Learning from the Past, Coping with the Present, and Moving to the Next.” It has been more than a year that the whole nation, including the rest of the world, has been coping with the tremendous impacts of COVID-19 pandemic. While it is true that this pandemic has revealed the country’s existing gaps and problems in the health sector, the government, our doctors, scientists, and experts have stepped up efforts to meet the continuing complex challenges. The pandemic has affected almost all sectors of the society, hence the discussions in this annual scientific meeting will tackle related issues and concerns such as the connection among food, environment, and health, viral evolution, dynamics, and modeling interventions, systems approach to address present-day hazards, impact of the pandemic to basic and higher education, balancing the economy and health, and health systems response and preparedness. As we continue to fight this pandemic, may we all learn from the “weight of the past” and use evidence-based action plans and strategies to cope with the “push of the present” for even now we can sense the “pull of the future”. Let us all move forward and build a better future for the next generation with science and technology as our strong base.
A PREVIEW — PAGTANAW 2050: THE PHILIPPINE SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND INNOVATION FORESIGHT
Authors: PHL NAST
Published: March 2023

The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) has always pushed for the country’s scientific and technological advancement. On the other hand, the National Academy of Science and Technology, Philippines (NAST PHL) has served as primary adviser to government on matters related to science and technology and has actively worked towards developing a truly Filipino productive science culture. In 2019, DOST Secretary Fortunato T. De La Peña challenged NAST PHL to undertake a foresight study, similar to the Malaysia’s Outlook 2050 crafted by the Akademi Sains Malaysia. The NAST PHL’s proposal to develop a 30-year STI Foresight, including strategic plans, was quickly approved for funding by the DOST Executive Committee the following year. The NAST PHL was able to complete the first and second versions of the country’s STI Foresight document, aptly entitled PAGTANAW 2050, or LOOKING AHEAD 2050, despite the technical and other unprecedented difficulties brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. PAGTANAW 2050 is the first DOST-funded inter-disciplinal and trans-disciplinal project on Philippine-focused STI Foresight and Strategic Plan that will impact on the aspirations of the Filipino people by 2050. It is a compendium of STI megatrends, global and national societal goals, transdisciplinary, and interdisciplinary operational areas, and current and emerging technologies relevant to the nation’s development that is firmly grounded in the Filipino people’s aspirations within the context of the natural and physical endowments as well as shared Filipino values and skills, and other potentials. The said document also delves into probable and significant drivers of change, and provides insights and reflections on the plausible development paths towards achieving the Filipino aspirations as expressed in the 1987 Philippine Constitution, the various Philippine Development Plans, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Department of Science and Technology Harmonized National Research and Development Agenda, and the National Economic Development Authority’s vision for the Filipino people, AmBisyon Natin 2040 (NEDA, 2016). At the core of this Foresight are 12 key operational areas, namely: Blue Economy; Governance; Business and Trade; Digital Transformation and Information and Communications Technology; Science Education and Talent Retention; Food Security and Nutrition; Health Systems; Energy; Water; Environment and Climate Change; Shelter, Transportation, and Other Infrastructure; and Space Exploration. It is hoped that the S&T aspirations of the Filipino people will be achieved by 2050 through this Foresight

Twelve rice genotypes were planted in four municipalities of Cagayan (Iguig, Peñablanca, Solana, and Tuguegarao). It aimed to assess genotype by environment interaction (GEI) of rice cultivated by farmers in Cagayan as well as their stability. This study was also designed to identify genotypes suited to high temperature-prone areas and the most discriminating environment to screen genotypes for high temperature tolerance. During anthesis, the recorded maximum temperature ranged from 33.6-42.4°C in Iguig, 32.9-44.80C in Peñablanca, 32.1-40.5°C in Solana, and 32.6-41.1°C in Tuguegarao. Panicle and canopy temperature were lower than air temperature in Iguig and Peñablanca but higher in Solana and Tuguegarao. Variance due to genotype, environment and GEI were found significant (p≤0.05) for yield. Environment contributed the greatest proportion to yield which was 43.1% of the total variance, while genotype contributed 35.5%, and GEI 21.5%. Spikelet fertility, panicle length, number of grains per panicle, and grain weight were not significantly affected by GEI. However, panicle length and spikelet fertility were significantly affected by genotype and environment, while number of grains per panicle and grain weight were significantly affected only by environment. NSIC Rc 152, Rc 218, Rc 222, PR40330, and PR42026 were found high-yielding with wide adaptation to high temperature conditions. NSIC Rc 152 and PR40330 were the most outstanding genotypes. These genotypes can be used as parents for development of new heat-tolerant lines. Iguig was the best location for screening and selecting generally adapted genotypes under high temperature condition.
7- Propos sur un « Bandoeng » épistémique : l’Afrique, le Sud global et la production des savoirs au XXIe siècle
Authors: Tshibambe Germain Ngoie
Published: March 2023

La mondialisation repose sur un socle de production des savoirs dont l’analyse géopolitique démontre la polarisation autour de certains États et/ou peuples, en l’occurrence « le Nord ». Ces acteurs maintiennent leur position dominante en multipliant plusieurs dispositifs qui sont autant de leurres destinés à pérenniser le rapport inégal dans l’acte de penser. Au demeurant, Susan Strange a bien saisi les contours de ce jeu des nations en démontant les ressorts et les sites constitutifs de la puissance dans sa dimension structurelle (1988). Le savoir et la circulation de l’information font partie de ces sites en tant que vecteurs de l’hégémonie. Dans cette partition planétaire de la production des savoirs, l’Afrique est dans une mauvaise posture qui la loge sous le signe de la dépendance complexe. Celle-ci est mieux rendue par la « colonialité épistémique ». Cet article entend analyser ce que fait l’Afrique dans la quête de la libération dans le domaine de la production des savoirs en sciences sociales. À la suite d’un courant de pensée dit de la décolonialité épistémique, nous voulons démontrer que l’Afrique devrait se lancer dans ce travail libérateur à travers un « Bandoeng » sur le plan épistémique.
2 - The Hybrid Administrator-scholar Paradigm in Higher Education Leadership in Africa
Authors: Zhou Sindiso
Published: March 2023

The higher education landscape has been in a state of flux since the turn of the twenty-first century owing to pressure to internationalise and adopt entrepreneurial approaches in response to global demands. These exigencies have not spared middle-level managers in the academy who straddle the divide between administration and scholarship. This article explores the administrator-scholar paradigm in the context of the globalisation momentum in the academy, using an autoethnographical approach, in which I examine my personal and professional experience as a department chair in two universities over a period of five years. The study pays particular attention to how the dual role was enacted and views the administrator-scholar phenomenon as a resource, not a problem, as explicated in existing research. I articulate the leadership qualities that middle-level managers – more particularly, heads of departments – need, to navigate the contested space and ambivalent landscape of higher education leadership. Institutional gaps and the absence of systemic socialisation led me to develop a domain acculturation model, Divergent Collaborative Leadership, which emphasises the administrator- scholar in the construction of professional identities in higher education in the African context.
8 - Leading an Academic Staff Union as a Middle-level Academic (2003–2013)
Authors: Wafula Richard Makhanu
Published: March 2023

This article examines the emergence of the author as a leader of the Universities Academic Staff Union at a university in East Africa. Using the role, resource and constraint-based theories as well as autoethnography, which is a sub-category of qualitative research, the author traces the intellectual and political ferment that enabled him to become a unionist. From the discussion that emanated from the data he collected, from memos, newspaper articles and personal memories, it became increasingly clear that as a unionist his story demonstrates tensions, contestations and in some cases expensive trade-offs. Overall, there were actions that he performed well and others that he would implement differently were he given a second chance to lead the union.
3 - Teaching Styles of Educators in Higher Education in Eritrea: Teacher-centred or Student-centred?
Authors: Abdella Ali Suleman , Fataar Aslam
Published: March 2023

To meet the demands of twenty-first-century educational needs in Eritrea, the country required the education sector to replace passive learning and didactic pedagogy with interactive learning and student-centred pedagogy. In line with reform initiatives, teacher education programmes aim to prepare student teachers to increase their prospective students’ participation in the classroom. The purpose of the study on which this article is based was to find out the extent to which educators used student-centred strategies in realising the reform initiatives. The methodology adopted was survey research design. A questionnaire based on the Principles of Adult Learning Scale was used to generate data from sixty-one educators at two teacher education institutions, namely the College of Education of the Eritrea Institute of Technology and Asmara Community College of Education. While student-centred teaching has been advocated, the findings indicate that teacher-centred teaching dominates instructional settings. Moreover, the study examined the relationship between teaching styles and the demographic features of educators using an analysis of variance. No significant differences were found between teaching styles and various demographic aspects of the teacher educators.
Beyond Academic Imperialism in Comparative Studies of the Global South: Methodological Reflections
Authors: Phiri Madalitso Zililo
Published: March 2023

Contemporary debates on decolonisation have reluctantly forced social scientists to engage with neglected debates on race and epistemology. This article recasts these debates through methodological reflections that compare South African and Brazilian social policies by centring the interpellations of racial capitalism, poverty, inequality, and social exclusion. I conducted forty- five in-depth interviews with beneficiaries of social assistance programmes such as social grants and Bolsa Familia and with policymakers in South Africa and Brazil. Both countries offer compelling cases for comparison because they share important characteristics. How does the generation of knowledge in comparative public policy aid in advancing methodological perspectives that lead towards an imagination of a more democratic global social science? I offer a methodological reflexivity that challenges academic imperialism and underscores the importance of how local questions have global relevance in advancing an agenda for knowledge decolonisation. I achieve this by critiquing the positivist tradition in comparative sociology.
2 - Formulating Higher Education Policies in Africa: The Pressure from External Forces and the Neoliberal Agenda
Authors: Birgit Brock-Utne
Published: March 2023

This article analyzes the higher educational policies made for Sub-Saharan Africa by the World Bank and portrays its hostile attitude towards higher education development on the sub continent. Though an organization such as UNESCO holds up the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that states “higher education shall be accessible to all, on the basis of merit,” the Bank insists on what it calls diversification of funding and “cost sharing”. The ramifications of these policies both at individual and institutional level are discussed. Some recent documents from the Bank now recognize the importance of the sector in Africa without, however, any apologies for decades of neglect. Despite increased emphasis on the sector, the basic tenets, such as more cost sharing and more privatisation largely remain. Furthermore, the article discusses language issues in African universities and calls for the need to nurture local knowledge development. The article underscores the great need for an education that is of Africa and for Africa.
3 - Failed or Self-Hindering Prophecies? Employment Experiences of African Graduates in the 1990s
Authors: Alexis-Michel Mugabushaka  , Ulrich Teichler  , Harald Schomburg
Published: March 2023

The 1980s brought about sweeping and far-reaching structural changes in many African countries, which greatly affected the higher education sector. Though, the task of training the professional and political elite had been achieved in the previ- ous decades, early reforms now faced new challenges. Concerns were raised that, without substantial new reforms, there may be a mismatch between higher educa- tion and the labor market, leading to massive unemployment among graduates, a tedious transition process from higher education to the labour market, and the un- deremployment of highly skilled laborers in low-skill jobs. This article uses survey data, conducted in Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Uganda to exam- ine the basis of such concerns.

5 - Higher Education in Ethiopia: The Vision and Its Challenges
Authors: William Saint
Published: March 2023

Ethiopia is embarked on a higher education expansion and reform programme of impressive dimensions. Expansion will create new universities, establish three sys- tem support agencies, mount new courses, and triple enrolments. Reforms intro- duce increased institutional autonomy, curriculum revisions, new funding arrange- ments and student contributions by means of a graduate tax. This article analyses current higher education reform efforts in Ethiopia. It begins by sketching the so- cial context in which higher education is situated and describing the country’s higher education system. An assessment of tertiary education financing follows. Management capacities and efficiency in the use of these resources are then dis- cussed, noting the particular challenges posed by HIV/AIDS. Educational quality and relevance are subsequently addressed. Analysis points out potential weaknesses in the reform programme but concludes that enrolment expansion targets are likely to be met. However, the dynamics of expansion may well generate difficulties in maintaining educational quality.

The Changing Face of Redress in South African Higher Education (1990-2005)
Authors: Teboho Moja
Published: March 2023

fhis study focuses on fifteen years of redress policies designed to redress past in­ qualities in South African higher education, particularly as reflected in funding. At­ tempts to reverse past injustices included measures to address racial inequities for tndividuals with limited access to higher education at one level, and at another fo­ used on institutional discrimination through unequal funding of institutions based on the racial groupings they were designated to serve. This led to policies to provide tnstitutional redress. Two periods are examined under two different Ministers ofEdu­ ation and provide information on different strategies, levels of commitment, and degrees of success. The pre-democracy period to 1994 shaped the debate around redress and acceptance of policies to establish equity in society. Political realities post-1994 reshaped the debate, institutional redress faltered, and the focus on indi­ vidual redress was prioritised with the establishment of a student financial aid scheme. The new funding formula implemented in 2005 includes some redress elements. It remains to be seen ifthey will be effective.
Sentiment and Exploitation in British Literary Representations of Eighteenth-Century India
Authors: Craft Peter
Published: March 2023

This article argues that Henry Mackenzie’s novel, The Man of Feeling (1771), represents an important shift in British literary depictions of the indigenous peoples of India. Although the inhabitants of the West Indies had been represented condescendingly in British literature for centuries prior to the publication of Mackenzie’s novel, East Indian characters, such as John Dryden’s version of the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, were seen as powerful and civilized. By 1771, however, East and West “Indian” characters had become virtually indistinguishable from one another in British literature.
Beyond Patriarchy
Authors: Kebsi Jyhene
Published: March 2023

Le Voile de la Peur (Veil of Fear) by Samia Shariff (2006) is the French autobiography of an abused Algerian wife who describes her forced “illegal” migration to Canada in search of asylum. Shariff’s testimony has so far been seen as the life narrative of an oppressed female fugitive fleeing Islamic “misogyny.” In this article, I offer a more complex assessment that sees Veil of Fear as a border text that unveils the paradoxes of a globalized and yet heavily policed world. My exploration of Shariff’s autobiography emphasizes the contradictions of globalization, which call for borderlessness while policing the mobility of citizens of poor countries. My transnational feminist reading of Shariff’s clandestine journey highlights the intersectional nature of the oppressive forces that torment Algerian women and the wrongness of reducing the problems of Muslim female asylum seekers to patriarchy. My investigation of the difficulties which Shariff faced in migrating to Canada generates a reading of the unauthorized crossing as a bodily act through which paperless women challenge local gendered and global spatial hierarchies.
The Freedman in Soyinka's "The Man Died"
Authors: Onyemachi Nkiru
Published: March 2023

The Nigerian Civil War fought from 1966 to 1970 has evoked emotions and enthroned writers that have either recaptured their experiences or told imaginative tales based on other’s experiences. But amidst the different structures, the horrific images captured in these works unify these texts as sharing a common interest and resonating a nation’s narrative. In The Man Died, Soyinka, while being held as a prisoner, revivifies his experiences of the war where the bestial acts meted out on man leave him in a silenced state that literally discerns the death of man. This causes the emergence of the freed man, the mind. The mind’s freedom to roam within time in a static body establishes the temporalities between the imprisoned and freed men. This paper adopts Currie’s perception of consciousness and Bhabha’s concept of nation’s narration to show how the mind discerns a chaotic nation, distinguishing the writer as an archival resource. It foregrounds the present as infiltrated with past events, thereby questioning its duration through a nation’s narration.

Characterization of SP-T1 Phage for Potential Biological Control of Salmonella Enteritidis
Authors: ALTINOK Melih Enes , TURE Mustafa , CEBECİ Ayse , ALTINOK Ilhan
Published: March 2023

Objectives: Salmonella Enteritidis is a pathogen that causes gastroenteritis and septicemia in humans and animals, causing worldwide health implications. This pathogen often causes fatal foodborne diseases in humans and animals. In recent years, new treatment strategies for bacterial infections have been studied. Bacteriophages might be used as an alternative strategy for battling against bacterial diseases.

Methods: A novel SP-T1 phage was isolated, and its lytic activity against Salmonella Enteritidis strains and other enteric bacterial species was evaluated. In addition to its kinetic and genetic characteristics, it is in vivo cytotoxicity and ability to inhibit the development of biofilms were investigated.

Results: The gene sequence of the major capsid protein confirmed that the SP-T1 phage belonged to the family Siphoviridae. There was no evidence that phage had a lytic effect on bacteria other than the type of Salmonella used in this investigation. The phage exhibited a short latent period of 15 to 20 min and a burst size of 10 plaque forming unit per infected cell. The phage was resistant to temperatures between 15 and 37 °C and pH levels between 5 and 11. The SP-T1 phage exhibited no adverse effects on EPC cell culture and reduced biofilm formation.

Conclusions: Because of its short latent period, appropriate burst size, ability to inhibit biofilm formation, and sensitivity to various temperatures and pH levels, the phage found in this study would be an excellent candidate for phage therapy. These findings are beneficial for improving the microbiological safety and quality of food and creating efficient bacteriophage-based regulation in the food chain.

The microbial diversity and flavour metabolism of Chinese strong flavour Baijiu: a review
Authors: Cheng Wei , Chen Xuefeng , Guo Yuxi , Zhou Duan , Zeng Huawei , Fu Huan
Published: March 2023

Strong flavour Baijiu is widely consumed in China and is produced by the fermentation of grains using microbial starters. However, a comprehensive understanding of the diversity and metabolic characteristics of microbial communities involved in the solid-state fermentation of Baijiu is important for determining the relationship between microbial composition, flavour metabolism and understanding Baijiu fermentation conditions. Although studies have examined the metabolic pathways and impact of major processes on flavour compounds in strong flavour Baijiu, aspects of the fermentation process remain unexplored. In this review, methods are discussed for the optimisation of microbial diversity in strong flavour Baijiu and associated effects on the flavour of Baijiu. Recent studies are reviewed on starters (Daqu), fermented grains (Jiupei), and pit mud together with the effects of microbial composition on the quality of strong flavour Baijiu. The challenges of Baijiu research and production are discussed, including the role of the microbial diversity of Daqu and Jiupei in the flavour composition of strong flavour Baijiu. This review contributes to the current understanding of processing strong flavour Baijiu and serves as a reference for screening flavour related microorganisms, which is valuable for improving the quality of strong flavour Baijiu.
Perfiles del aprendiz preadolescente de chino como lengua extranjera en contexto hispanohablante
Authors: Cáceres Lorenzo María Teresa , Wang Lili
Published: March 2023

El objetivo es conocer cómo aprende chino como lengua extranjera (ChLE) un grupo de preadolescentes en el Instituto Confucio de la Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (IC-ULPGC). Con el fin de mejorar este proceso investigamos las estrategias de aprendizaje (EAL) para mejorar su conocimiento de ChLE. Se analiza el caso de 81 estudiantes de 12 años, que voluntariamente asistieron entre 2019-2020 al IC-ULPGC. A partir del marco teórico se diseña una investigación en la que nos preguntamos la posible relación entre sus factores personales y académicos (L1, sexo, colegio monolingüe/bilingüe y puntuación en el examen final) y las EAL utilizadas. Estos datos se recopilaron mediante una encuesta, que incluía el Strategy-Inventory-for Language-Learning. El análisis estadístico de los resultados muestra que: los sujetos no presentan una alta frecuencia de uso de las EAL; la estrategia más utilizada es la social, y la menos, la cognitiva, aunque son las afectiva y metacognitiva las que tienen correlación significativa con el éxito académico; no se ha establecido correlación entre las variables personales, L1, sexo o tipo de centro educativo, con los resultados de la prueba; pero sí entre la variedad de educación (monolingüe/bilingüe) y el uso de las EAL.

FROM THE DESK OF EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
Authors:   University of Nigeria, Ehiemere Ijeoma
Published: March 2023

FROM THE DESK OF EDITOR-IN-CHIEF It is a New Dawn, a New Era, heralding the reviving of the “The Nursing Scope”, a journal of destiny that went comatose in 1991 after the publication of volume three (3), Issue 1. From that time, it seemed as if the excellent work done by the Pioneer Editorial Board and the past National Executives of University Graduate Nurses Association of Nigeria (UGONSA), also known as Graduate Nurses Association of Nigeria (GNAN) was wasted efforts. However, Destiny said “No”, by prompting young visionary leaders, who are members of UGONSA, including some past National Secretaries in Diaspora to mobilize and see that the seeming wasted efforts of the pioneer team are not wasted efforts. This is the rebirth of our Nursing journal. The doggedness, commitment, and resilience of this group in making this feat a reality is worthy of the praise and support of all Nurses both in Nigeria and in Diaspora. The road to establishing a channel to give the Nursing Profession in Nigeria, a voice to reckon with in academic and clinical matters and in other areas of Nurses' contributions to the health system has been very tortuous and rigorous. This is not surprising, taking cognizance of the difficult and tortuous terrain Nursing Education itself in Nigeria has passed through to this point in time. Nevertheless, substantive progress has been made in Education, Research, and Practice. I, therefore, urge us all to come together in the spirit of teamwork to increase the tempo and speed to make, “The Nursing Scope” one of the best global journals through our collective efforts. Together we can make this happen. YES, WE CAN! Prof. (Mrs.) Ijeoma O. Ehiemere, Editor-in-Chief, The Nursing Scope
The Discussion of Ulama and Ideology in The Indonesian Ideological Decade
Authors: Arditya Prayogi  , Noorma Fitriana M. Zain  , Devy Arisandi
Published: March 2023

The ideological decade in Indonesia was marked by the entry of various transnational ideologies. Thus, these various ideologies will be responded to with various responses that are different from each other, including the responses of the ulama as representatives of Indonesian Muslims (still the Dutch East Indies at that time). This article aims to describe various forms of response to several ideologies that developed during the ideological decade and their discourses. This article was written with a qualitative descriptive approach using the literature study method as the data collection method. From the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that the ulama as well as Muslims are fragmented in various responses and the roles shown in their various attitudes, when responding to the entry of various ideas/ideologies at this time. In the life of the community, the estuary of the responses that appear leads to the pros and cons of these ideas/ideologies.
Effect of Dynamic Politics on The Sustainability of Local Democracy Legal Politics
Authors: Agung Rachmat
Published: March 2023

This study aims to provide information regarding the influence of dynastic politics on democracy. This research strategy is a normative research strategy. Literature reviews, books, journals, papers, and relevant laws and regulations were utilized to collect data for this study. In a democratic nation, particularly Indonesia, dynastic politics have been prevalent for a long time and are a legacy of the New Order administration. In certain regions of Indonesia, dynasty politics have risen rapidly. It is believed that the practice of dynasty politics impedes the mobility of the people to participate in the phases of the General Election for Regional Heads. In addition, dynastic politics has the potential to corrupt monarchs or incumbents by bolstering the political authority and interests of their families and relatives. This is due to the lack of influence the community has on the electoral process. Observing the evolution of dynastic political practices, this is unquestionably a crucial highlight for every community. Consequently, the concept of checks and balances between the government and society is deemed essential for ensuring the continuation of the battle for leadership transitions.

Authors: Aini Christin Nur , Mukarromah Lailatul , Rahayu Puji
Published: March 2023

The current state of education presents a problem for teachers. Therefore, educators must improve their quality in line with the times. In the field of education, a teacher's professionalism is crucial. Because pupils can develop themselves to their fullest potential with the help of experienced teachers. Therefore, raising the standard of the teaching profession is thought to be crucial. Additionally, educating, teaching, guiding, directing, training, and evaluating students is a teacher's primary responsibility. The professionalism of a teacher has a direct impact on the quality of the teacher. For pupils to be able to think critically and creatively, teachers must be able to act as facilitators. Teachers must also have the ability to act as a spark for pupils to pursue their interests and skills.

In this paper, I discuss some morphological processes of inflection in Bahasa Bugis particularly verb, in order to scrutinize some problems that appear in the analysis under a morphemic framework. To have a better understanding towards the analysis of the inflectional case, I will employ an approach of Paradigm Function Morphology by Stump (2001). As a result, inflectional occur depends on the aspect and the person. There are three main aspects found; durative, perfective, and conditional. Of which, durative has four subcategories; durative (repeated), durative (feature & repeated), durative (similar), and durative (repeated & similar). Moreover, perfective aspect is also found to have one subcategory called perfective (past & similar). On the other hand, an interesting phenomenon found in person where the second person differentiated by the pragmatic meaning; more polite and less polite. Finally, through PFM, we can capture the mappings, block by block, show how morphosyntactic features are realized by the exponents in the language.

Therefore, most of the housing conditions fall into the criteria for uninhabitable houses. The community in Ngepanrejo Village is struggling to uphold good quality housing in various ways, one of which is by submitting a proposal for Uninhabitable Housing. qualitative research using data collection methods in the form of secondary data.

Through each proposals submitted every year, there are about 10 houses renovated. If this trend continues, the objective proposed by the provincial government will be achieved at a fast rate. However, most proposals are found to be mismatch to the SIMPERUM and SIKDES which is caused by human errors. This have led the village government to create a lot letter of statements just to validate that the information is correct.
Applying propositional calculus of formal logic to formulate research hypotheses in management sciences
Authors:   Czestochowa University of Technology, Faculty of Management, Poland, Pabian Aleksander
Published: March 2023

The article is devoted to the topic of formulating research hypotheses in management sciences. On the basis of the author’s research results, it may be concluded that although the related literature indicates the features of a properly formulated hypothesis, errors still tend to occur in the process of its construction and as a consequence, the answers to the question or questions determining the research problem are not correctly formulated. Examples of such errors include attempts to check statements which are unverifiable in practice, which could be observed even in Master’s theses. The propositional calculus, whose source is in formal logic, may prove a useful tool in creating proper hypotheses. The primary aim of the article is to prove the usefulness of the propositional calculus of formal logic in formulating the main hypothesis and partial hypotheses in research work relating to management sciences. Prior to adopting a hypothesis for further proceedings, it should be decomposed into prime factors, followed by an analysis of the propositions. Adopting such a calculus when formulating each hypothesis should result in their comprehensible and logical form, compliant with linguistic rules.

نزعة سلفية: الحداثة من منظور ليو شتراوس..
Authors: عثمان طارق
Published: March 2023

يهدف البحث إلى الكشف عن آراء ليو شتراوس الفلسفية، ومحاولة عودته إلى الحداثة القديمة واللاهوتية الغربية، وقد سار البحث في مقدمة ومحاور ناقشت الحداثة بوصفها تحويل مجرى الفلسفة السياسية، ونقد الحداثة في ضرورة العودة إلى القدامة، وتركة شتراوس المتعلقة بوزر المحافظين الجدد، وقد توصل البحث إلى أن شتراوس لم يكن ناشطا سياسيا، وإنما هو فيلسوف سياسة، يقارب السياسة من ناحية فلسفية محضة، وكون المحافظين الجدد قد انتزعوا بعض أفكاره من سياقاتها العملية، وتعاملوا معها بدرجة من السطحية، فإن هذا لا يسوغ أبدا جعله أبا روحيا لهم، ويتحمل كل أوزارهم. وأنه يمثل نزعة سلفية في أفق الفلسفة الغربية، بدعوته إلى العودة إلى التراث الفلسفي السياسي القديم، وكذلك التراث اللاهوتي، وينقم أشد النقمة على كل دعوى إلى القطع مع هذا التراث.
هل يمكن صناعة مجتمع ذي "مهارات عالية" من خلال سياسة التعليم والتدريب المهني؟.. نظرة في مخاطر التنمية أحادية النظر
Authors: الشهري عبدالله بن سعيد , القسطاوي محمود
Published: March 2023

يعالج البحث أهمية النظر المتكامل في إدارة خطط التنمية التي تعتمد على نجاح سياسات التدريب والتعليم المهني في مجتمع ما، ويبين خطورة إهمال المكونات الاجتماعية والثقافية الداعمة لتحول سلس إلى النتائج المتوقعة من خطط التنمية تلك، ولتحقيق هذا المأرب لا بد من النظر إلى تحديات الاقتصاد العالمي ككل وفهمها، وصياغة خطط التنمية وسياسات التدريب والتعليم المهني المرتبة في ضوء إيجابيات وسلبيات التحديات. ولأن البحث معني بشكل أكبر بتفادي تكرار السلبيات التي انتهجتها دول أخرى، فإنه توخى إبراز مزالق النظر الأحادي في التخطيط التنموي المشار إليه وتداعياته على ثقافة المجتمع ككل. وتوصل البحث إلى أن العالم أصبح على درجة من التعقيد والتأثر الشديد بالظروف المتناهية في الدقة، حتى إن أي محاولة لتشكيل مجتمع ثابت ذي مهارات عالية من خلال سياسة تعليم وتدريب مهني واضحة المعالم أمر أقرب إلى الحلم منه إلى الهدف القابل للتحقيق، ولكنه ليس مستحيلا.

مشروع علمنة السياسة وتأسيس الدولة المدنية في الغرب المسيحي من خلال "اللفيثان" لتوماس هوبز
Authors: هشام شراد
Published: March 2023

يهدف هذا البحث إلى التساؤل عن إمكانية وجود مشروع "علمنة" للسياسة في الفكر الأنجلوسكسوني من خلال "اللفيثان" لتوماس هوبز. بالنظر إلى طبيعة الدين وبذرته الطبيعية"، وقضية "التحول الديني" الناتجة عنهما، وكلك تعارض "بنية الإيمان" مع بنية الالتزام السياسي، فإن توماس هوبز يخلص إلى ضرورة قيام سياسة عقلية محضة وإحلالها بهدف ضبط العلاقة بين السياسة والديت من جهة، وإرساء أسس الدولة المدنية من جهة أخرى. وبما أن السلطة السياسية هي نتاج بحث للعقد الاجتماعي، الذي ينشئا بين الأفراد، فإن كل سلطة هي سلطة سياسية علمانية يخضع بموجبها الحاكم السياسي الأفراد ورجال الأكليروس لسلطة "اللفيثان" أي الدولة.
