Vivienda progresiva como solución alternativa para la ciudad de La Habana
Authors: Gelabert Abreu Dayra
Published: August 2022

Esta obra ha recibido el Premio de Estudios Iberoamericanos Grupo La Rábida (VIII edición, 2014). La obra es una versión revisada de la tesis doctoral de la autora. Desde el año 2009 se reconoció la necesidad de elaborar las bases legales, así como normativas de gestión y de diseño para el desarrollo de la vivienda progresiva en Cuba. Esta obra propone recomendaciones para el diseño de viviendas progresivas y flexibles para la ciudad de La Habana, como alternativa a la vivienda "llave en mano", que permitan reducir la inversión estatal inicial, respondan a los requerimientos del hogar, favorezcan un buen aprovechamiento del suelo y no comprometan la calidad del ambiente urbano al combinar la acción conjunta del Estado y la población. El planteamiento de la investigación, su desarrollo y el modelo metodológico propuesto es aplicable a otras urbes latinoamericanas de centralidad similar a La Habana.
La atención del adulto mayor desde un enfoque psicosocial: aproximaciones
al programa de atención al adulto mayor del municipio de Sucre durante la
gestión 2019
Authors: Cuadros Rivera Virginia Del Rosario
Published: August 2022

El envejecimiento y la vejez, además de afectar el estado de la salud
biológica, genera repercusiones a nivel psicosocial.Durante las últimas
décadas en Bolivia, se ha incrementado la población adulta mayor que
representaba el 9,5% en 2020 y que el 2030 se espera un alcance del 11,5% de
la población. Estas cifras nos conducen a repensar más allá del modelo de
salud centrado en la biomedicina dirigida a tratar la declinación
fisiológica a partir de la intervención sanitaria predominantemente
asistencial. El objetivo del presente estudio es reflexionar sobre la
necesidad de asumir un paradigma psicosocial que facilite la atención
integral y permita mejorar la calidad de vida del adulto mayor.La
metodología partió del análisis teórico conceptual de la salud colectiva y
el envejecimiento activo que permiten abordar los factores psicosociales del
adulto mayor durante las experiencias en los servicios de atención primaria
de la salud, a cuyo efecto se aplicó un análisis del discurso en sus
dimensiones textual, simbólica y conductual, a partir de grupos focales;
acompañado del análisis descriptivo de encuestas a una muestra de 178
participantes del programa del adulto mayor del municipio de Sucre. Los
resultados muestran que, la atención primaria está prioritariamente dirigida
a las condiciones médicas, donde el dolor es el principal tema de
preocupación del equipo de salud. Los adultos mayores perciben que son
atendidos con premura y baja preocupación por la desatención a los aspectos
psicosociales.Se evidencia la necesidad de un cambio en las políticas de
salud a fin de conseguir servicios asistenciales adecuados a la edad, que
promuevan prestaciones desde un enfoque integral, preventivo y
multidisciplinario, para resolver necesidades sociales, psicológicas y
biomédicas de los adultos mayores.

Published: August 2022

This study reviews the incidence and severity of poverty as it relates to tourism in Nigeria. It examines the causes and effects of tourism and how it affects tourism participation. The study employs the Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs as its basis for theoretical underpinning. The study relied on secondary data and literatures for its review. The study found out that the major reasons for underdevelopment in the area is neglect of the tourism sector of the country which in turn caused many more people to become poorer. It recommends that government should diversify and work on tourism potentials especially in host communities which are majorly rural areas. This in turn is expected to alleviate poverty in the communities. It is expected that this work will be useful for the purpose of politicking and making policies that will better the life of the poor.

Authors: RANJANA PATIAL  , SATISH PAUL  , DEVENDER SHARMA  , V K SOOD  , NIMIT KUMAR
Published: August 2022

Genetic diversity among 34 linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) genotypes were studied using, 18 agro-morphological traits as per the standard descriptors of DUS, UPOV 2011 at the experimental farm of the Department of Crop Improvement, CSKHPKV, Palampur. Six genotypes were found to be distinctive on the basis ofmorphological traits. Results revealed that sufficient genetic variability was observed for all the characters studied based on various genetic variability parameters. Principal component analysis (PCA) indicated that, out of total principal components, three PCs contributed 71.60% to the total variance amongst the genotypes assessed for nine agronomic traits. PC I contributed maximum towards the variability (36.91%) followed by PC II (22.15%) and PC III (12.54%). Cluster analysis clearly differentiated 34 genotypes into three clusters with cluster III having highest 15 genotypes. Sufficient variability was observed in the genotypes studied based on phenotypic and genotypic variance, principal component analysis and cluster analysis which could be utilized by researchers, in breeding programme and the genetic distinctiveness in the genotypes can be protected under PPVFRA.

Authors: Yadav Anjali , Sahu Dhananjay
Published: August 2022

This paper explored the second moment spillover across stock market (domestic & foreign) and Indian Foreign Exchange market (INR/USD, INR/GBP & INR/ JPY) with three data frames labelled: Full Period (April 2, 2014, to March 31, 2021), Pre-Covid Period (April 2, 2014, to January 29, 2020) & Post-Covid Period (January 20, 2020, to March 31, 2021) by deploying Diebold & Yilmaz (2012) method. The empirical results insinuate that there is low connectedness across foreign (S&P 500; FTSE 100) and Indian Forex market except in case of Nikkei 225 which disappear in pre-covid period but inflate in post-covid period with moderate connectedness. Similarly, low connectedness across domestic stock market & Indian Forex market is experienced except in case of INR/JPY rate. Furthermore, in the context of own inducement, each series has shown high spillover which gradually decrease in post-covid period but in contrast, inducement from stock to forex market has increased except in case of CNX Nifty & INR/GBP. This empirical evidence expounds the presence of contagion effect across both the markets.

Human resources are one of the most vital resources of a country, as it exploits the natural environments for the entire population. The importance and significance of various aspects of development scientific and technological, economic, and social, to name a few can be evaluated on a criterion of their utility and service for the welfare of human being. All the aspects of development in the ultimate analysis are or should be aids to human development. The development is not just about factories dams and roads. Development is basically about people. The goal is people’s material, cultural and spiritual fulfilment. Job satisfaction is solitary of the largely extensively discussed issue in organizational performance and human resource management. In the present study, an effort has been made to identify the major factors affecting the job satisfaction among the collegeteachers. The researchers identified 25 job satisfaction items through extensive literature review. The perceptions of the respondents were collected through structured questionnaire based on 5-point Likert scale. Exploratory factor analysis was done to explore the factors. The Cronbach’s alpha (0.870) confirms the internal consistency of the instrument. The KMO Measure of Sampling Adequacy is 0.798, indicating the present data is suitable for factor analysis. Similarly, Bartlett’s Test of Sphericity is significant (p<0.001) indicating significant correlation exists between the variables to proceed with the factor analysis. Thestudy explored 7 factors having eigen value of more than 1 and explaining 77.078% of the total variance. Further, independent sample t-test is applied to find whether there exists any difference in overall satisfaction with respect to various demographic variables of the respondents. It was found that significant difference exists only with Sector and Education of the respondents. Moreover, age, gender and income bear no impact on job satisfaction.

El mundo alegórico de Cemican: un estudio en antropología simbólica sobre metal
Authors: Perez Pelayo Marisol
Published: August 2022

En este articulo se analiza la manera en que la antropología simbólica y elementos de análisis de la semiótica brindan una forma de profundizar en el metal como música popular. El enfoque multidisciplinario de la antropología simbólica establece puentes que permiten un análisis de los símbolos que se utilizan en la banda mexicana de folk metal Cemican. Cemican recrea rituales y atmosferas del antiguo México en sus presentaciones en vivo, se valen de símbolos para entablar relaciones con el publico y enfatizar su mensaje. Se presentan en el escrito el punto de vista de diferentes autores que fueron precursores del análisis de signos y símbolos en la antropología. Se examina la metodología que ellos propusieron para el estudio y como se aplicó en el caso de los símbolos en Cemican. Para tener un prototipo más concreto se establecen ejemplos de un trabajo de campo hecho anteriormente y de entrevistas con miembros de la banda. Estos elementos de índole etnográfica sirven para ilustrar el punto de vista de los artistas y su intención al hacer uso de símbolos en sus performances. Se problematiza el uso de la antropología simbólica como única herramienta para analizar la cultura en distintas sociedades, pero también su influencia inequívoca en las investigaciones que precedieron su auge en la antropología.

As formas de ensinar estão ligadas aos modos de vida, por isso, a docência quilombola é oriunda e mantida pelas estratégias da comunidade, a partir de saberes próprios das relações cotidianas e da territorialidade. Esta docência é geograficamente centrada, a partir da ancestralidade e da espiritualidade. Neste sentido, promover uma educação antirracista e que tensione a colonialidade no âmbito da educação escolar quilombola, implica compreender a comunidade escolar em sua territorialidade, como aliança de reexistência. Este artigo investiga esta potencialidade no Quilombo do Rodeadouro, município de Juazeiro (Bahia), a partir da perspectiva da Pretagogia, a qual se apresenta como prática educativa fundada na oralidade e na ancestralidade, cuja força está na docência comunitária e nas suas práticas culturais cotidianas.
Photoluminescence and First-principle Calculations of the Single Vacancy in Diamond
Authors: WANG Kaiyue , ZHANG Wenjin
Published: August 2022

The isolated single vacancy is one of the most common defects in diamond, while it is of considerable interest and importance that significantly influences the optical properties of diamond. Although a number of literature publications about the electron structure and density states of single vacancy in diamond from the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, these results are very difficult to be identified from the perspective of experiments. In this paper, the low-temperature photoluminescence (PL) technology was employed to study the emission properties of single vacancy in diamond, and then the photoionization energy, migration energy and vibrionic structure obtained from PL experiments were compared with these obtained from the first-principle calculations. Results showed that the calculation results agreed well with the PL results for the neutral vacancy while differed for the negatively charged vacancy, indicating that for ultrapure diamond, the vacancy mainly existed in form of the neutral rather than the negatively charged.
Erfahrung als eine Form des Wissens
Authors: Rese Friederike
Published: August 2022

Diese systematische Untersuchung des Wissens der Erfahrung ist im Bereich der Erkenntnistheorie angesiedelt und aus der Perspektive der philosophischen Hermeneutik und Phänomenologie formuliert. Die philosophischen Autoren, die in dieser Analyse der Erfahrung als Form des Wissens aufgegriffen werden, decken den Zeitraum von der Antike bis zur Moderne ab. Im ersten Teil der Untersuchung schließt Friederike Rese vor allem an Aristoteles’, Hegels und Kants Analysen des Begriffs der Erfahrung an. Im zweiten Teil betrachtet sie unter den Hauptbegriffen des Ortes, des Leibes, der Sprache und der Zeit die existentiellen Bedingungen, unter denen das Wissen der Erfahrung zustande kommt. Gerade weil Erfahrung wesentlich an die menschliche Existenz gebunden ist und zu deren Konstitution beiträgt, unterliegt sie denselben Bedingungen wie die menschliche Existenz überhaupt. Mit der Thematik der Erfahrung befindet man sich an einer Schnittstelle von Mensch und Welt. Denn in der Erfahrung ist der Mensch auf die Welt bezogen. Und durch die Erfahrung wird der Mensch erst zu demjenigen oder zu derjenigen, der oder die er jeweils ist. Erfahrung ist also nicht nur für den Aufbau des Wissens, sondern auch für die Subjektivität des Menschen konstitutiv. Das Wissen der Erfahrung bezieht sich jedoch nicht allein auf die Lebenserfahrung des Menschen, sondern es kann jeden Gegenstand und jedes Geschehen betreffen, das in der Welt begegnet. Es ist grundlegend für andere Formen des Wissens. Außerdem begleitet Erfahrung jede andere Form des Wissens, denn jeder Zuwachs an Wissen hat die Struktur der Erfahrung.

Anerkennung psychischer Traumafolgen
Authors: Fegert Jörg M.
Published: August 2022

Die fehlende Anerkennung von Traumafolgen hat eine lange Geschichte auch jenseits der aktuellen Debatten um die Aufarbeitung von Missbrauch. Jörg M. Fegert, anerkannter Experte und Sprecher des Zentrums für Traumaforschung an der Universität Ulm, wirbt dafür, den Opfern von Traumata endlich Gerechtigkeit widerfahren zu lassen.

Über Kriegerdenkmäler gibt es in vielen Städten Streit. In Ulm entzündete sich der Streit an der 1934 als Teil eines Kriegerdenkmals für die Gefallenen des Ersten Weltkriegs aufgestellten Sankt Michaelsfigur. Anlass genug für den Autor, der häufig verweigerten Anerkennung psychischer Traumafolgen nachzuspüren. Von so genannten »Kriegszitterern « im Ersten Weltkrieg, über die Überlebenden des Holocaust bis zu den Opfern von Missbrauch und institutioneller Gewalt beschreibt er eindringlich die Erfahrung von gesellschaftlicher Ausgrenzung und Missachtung, die auf viele Betroffene wie eine weitere Verletzung ihrer Würde wirkt.
Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Following Traumatic Hand Amputation: A Case Report
Authors: Bacro-Duverger Bastien , Thorburn Ashley , Denney Brad , Gullett John , Thomspon Mawell , Pigott David
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Takotsubo or stress cardiomyopathy is a syndrome of transient left ventricular systolic dysfunction seen in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. Case Report: We describe a case of stress cardiomyopathy diagnosed in the emergency department (ED) using point-of-care ultrasound associated with traumatic hand amputation. The patient suffered a near-complete amputation of the right hand while using a circular saw, subsequently complicated by brief cardiac arrest with rapid return of spontaneous circulation. Point-of-care ultrasonography in the ED revealed the classic findings of takotsubo cardiomyopathy, including apical ballooning of the left ventricle and hyperkinesis of the basal walls with a severely reduced ejection fraction. After formalization of the amputation and cardiovascular evaluation, the patient was discharged from the hospital in stable condition 10 days later. Conclusion: Emergency physicians should be aware of the possibility of stress cardiomyopathy as a cause for acute decompensation, even in isolated extremity trauma.
Atypical Presentation of Traumatic Pediatric Carotid Artery Dissection: A Case Report
Authors: McGuire Duncan , Mielke Nicholas , Bahl Amit
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Carotid artery dissection is a rare but serious condition manifesting with signs and symptoms that closely overlap with other more benign medical diagnoses. This vascular injury, however, can result in debilitating sequelae, including thromboembolic cerebrovascular accidents. Case Report: We describe the atypical presentation of a healthy eight-year-old male who presented to the emergency department (ED) with generalized abdominal pain and non-bloody, non-bilious emesis. These symptoms occurred nine days after he sustained blunt head trauma after a non-syncopal fall from standing while playing hockey. He was initially diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease and constipation and was discharged home. The following day he developed an acute headache followed shortly by gait ataxia, prompting a return visit to the ED. Imaging of the head and neck revealed a left internal carotid artery dissection. The patient was started on intravenous unfractionated heparin and admitted to the hospital. He was later discharged symptom-free on therapeutic enoxaparin for eight weeks, followed by daily aspirin therapy. Conclusion: Pediatric trauma patients, especially those sustaining insult to the head and cervical spine, are at risk for craniocervical arterial injuries. This rare but dangerous pathology often manifests in a non-specific, delayed fashion making it a challenging diagnosis for physicians to make on the initial medical encounter.1,2 Maintaining a high clinical suspicion for carotid artery dissection is required to make this diagnosis and should guide a thorough history, physical examination, and appropriate imaging in order to improve patient morbidity and mortality. This case emphasizes key clinical features and risk factors of this disease that may help emergency clinicians promptly recognize and treat this entity.

Authors: Prendergast Nicole , Duanmu Youyou
Published: August 2022

Case Presentation: An 85-year-old male who had been prescribed prasugrel presented to the emergency department (ED) after a motor vehicle collision and developed progressive neurological deficits. Computed tomography imaging demonstrated epidural thickening from the second through seventh cervical vertebrae, and magnetic resonance imaging was notable for a cervicothoracic epidural hematoma. The patient underwent emergent decompression with a favorable outcome. Discussion: Cases of traumatic spinal epidural hematomas are rarely seen in the ED. These are part of a small subset of operative neurological emergencies that benefit from urgent surgical intervention.
Hyperaldosteronism and Renal Artery Stenosis in a Post-Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Patient: A Case Report
Authors: Davis Konnor , Gilani Christopher , Sudario Gabriel
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Patients with history of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) undergoing surgical repair can have a myriad of surgical complications including compromise to large arteries branching from the aorta. Secondary hyperaldosteronism, characterized by high levels of aldosterone and renin, can be due to a multitude of causes, including renal artery stenosis, and presents with nonspecific symptoms of fatigue, increased thirst, and muscle spasms. While it can initially be difficult to diagnose given its multitude of metabolic abnormalities, secondary hyperaldosteronism is important to consider in patients presenting with uncontrolled hypertension, hypokalemia, and metabolic alkalosis. Case Report: This report explores the case of a 65-year-old male with a complicated medical history presenting to the emergency department with hypokalemia and hypertension six months after undergoing endovascular repair for an AAA and was found to have metabolic abnormalities including hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis consistent with secondary hyperaldosteronism, likely secondary to renal artery stent stenosis. He was admitted to the hospital for four days and made a full recovery. Conclusion: This case highlights the need to understand, identify, and accurately diagnose hyperaldosteronism and recognize post-AAA repair complications of renal artery stenosis as a cause of this metabolic derangement.
Delayed Recognition of Severe Systemic Envenomation after Copperhead Bite: A Case Report
Authors: Kelly Patrick , Gerardo Charles
Published: August 2022

Introduction: We report a case of severe systemic copperhead, Agkistrodon contortrix, envenomation that resulted in long-term sequelae. Case Report: A 72-year-old man presented to the emergency department after suffering a copperhead snakebite. He developed severe systemic toxicity before local tissue injury developed. Clinicians did not initially recognize his envenomation syndrome and sought alternative explanations for his systemic symptoms before polyvalent immune fab (ovine) antivenom was administered. Although the patient improved, he was discharged with new stage three chronic kidney disease. Conclusion: Although rare, copperhead envenomation can cause severe systemic toxicity. Envenomation should be promptly treated with antivenom.

Background: Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) is a novel approach to breast cancer (BC) treatment. Objectives: In this study, we compared the cellular and molecular effects of IORT-treated post-lumpectomy wound fluid (seroma) at the point of IOeRT versus IOxRT on the BC cell line. Methods: Immortalized human BC cell lines: MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and MCF10 were incubated with seroma from 3 groups of patients (as a pilot study). The first group received Intraoperative electron radiation therapy (IOeRT, Boost dose=12Gy), the second one received IOeRT (Radical dose=21Gy), and the third group was prescribed Intraoperative x-ray radiation therapy (IOxRT, X-ray=20Gy). Cellular and molecular tests were used to investigate how cells are influenced by the IORT-treated seroma. Results: We evaluated the effects of dose-time and source-dependent IORT-treated seroma on BC cell lines. In this study, we observed that IOxRT-treated seroma has the most significant effects on the reduction of proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. Furthermore, inhibited migration and invasion of BC cell lines were compared to IOeRT -treated seroma. Conclusions: Although this is a pilot study, we suggest that at 24 h, the IORT (specifically IOxRT)-treated seroma may play an important protective role in the breast tumor bed, which is followed by local recurrence decreases.
A revision of Discodon tricolor (Guérin-Méneville) and its mimics from the Atlantic forests of Brazil (Coleoptera: Cantharidae)
Authors: Biffi Gabriel , Geiser Michael
Published: August 2022

Discodon tricolor (Guérin-Méneville, 1832) was thought to be a common species widely distributed in the Atlantic Forests of Brazil, yet showing morphological and chromatic variations. After examination of a large number of specimens from different regions of the Atlantic Forest biome, we found that Discodon tricolor actually represents a complex of many similar and sometimes sympatric species. Thirteen species in this complex are recognised as valid: Discodon tricolor, D. neoteutonum sp. nov., D. vanini sp. nov., D. obscurior Pic, 1906 stat. nov., D. lineaticorne sp. nov., D. aurimaculatum sp. nov., D. marginicolle sp. nov., D. tenuecostatum sp. nov., D. nigrocephalum Pic, 1949, D. tamoio sp. nov., D. viridimontanum sp. nov., D. crassipes Wittmer, 1952, and D. testaceipes Pic, 1930 stat. nov. The species Discodon albonotatum Pic, 1906 is confirmed as a synonym of D. tricolor, while the subspecies D. albonotatum obscurior and D. albonotatum testaceipes are elevated to specific status. The subgenus Acanthodiscodon Wittmer, 1952 is synonymised with Discodon Gorham, 1881. All the species are described and illustrated in detail and an identification key is provided. Despite being chromatically similar, the species show major morphological differences in their aedeagus and antennal structures, suggesting that they do not form a monophyletic clade. A potential mimicry ring involving these species of Discodon as well as other members of Cantharidae, Lampyridae, Cerambycidae and Belidae is discussed. Comments are made on the conservation of these species and their habitats within the Atlantic Forest biome.

Introduction: Optimal management of toxic megacolon as a consequence of Cl. difficile colitis is still matter of controversy, as well as timing of available therapeutic modalities. In this article we report a case of severe C. difficile colitis associated with toxic megacolon in a pregnant patient with Covid 19, who was successfully treated conservatively. Case Report: A 33-years old pregnant woman contracted SARS-CoV-2 in the 32nd week of pregnancy. She was admitted to regional hospital and treated extensively by wide-spectrum antibiotics. After the delivery she developed severe form of Cl. difficile colitis with toxic megacolon. In spite of severe clinical picture, the patient was treated conservatively, with high initial oral doses of vancomycin, with subsequent tapering. The outcome of the treatment was complete recovery and colonic functions were regained completely. Conclusion: In conclusion, our case shows that in younger patients, who were fit before occurrence of Cl. difficile colitis and toxic megacolon, conservative therapy should be tried as long as possible before turning to colectomy, since chances for cure without surgery are considerable.
Logical framework of information technology: Systematization of software development research
Authors: Sa'adillah Maylawati , Ali Ramdhani
Published: August 2022

This article aims to present a comprehensive Logical Framework for Information Technology (IT) Research, specifically for developing customized IT applications or software. The methodology of writing this article uses a content analysis with the main source of literature review, Focus Discussion Group, and also based on the experience and knowledge of the authors as lecturers of Software Engineering and Software Project Management. This article shows that although current IT development approaches or methodologies (especially software development methodology) continue to develop, good IT design is carried out through six main stages, namely planning, analysis, design, construction, implementation, and maintenance. The success of IT implementation depends on the good process of all stages of IT design. The involvement of all actors/ stakeholders in IT design is essential to be accommodated at all stages of IT design. Quality also becomes the main goal and controls every process of IT development.
Potential to use microstrip patch instead of dipole antennas in 2.4 GHz wireless sensor networks
Authors: Milivojčević Marko , Tolić Nenad , Štimac Mijat
Published: August 2022

This paper describes the process of designing, simulating and measuring antenna parameters in order to perform a comparative analysis of the performance of microstrip patch antennas and dipole antennas intended for use in wireless sensor networks. The implemented antennas are designed for the unlicensed ISM band of 2.402-2.480 GHz as one of the most widely used bands for this type of network. The patch antenna was created based on calculation and tested in simulation software, and then adjusted with appropriate measurements to suit the intended purpose. Measurements in real conditions were made to compare the patch and dipole antennas in the same frequency range. The patch antenna was further tested, due to the specificity of the implementation within the WSN, in an enclosed and open enclosure made of a conductive material that simulates the enclosure of wireless sensor network nodes in certain applications. The aim of this paper is to show the possibility of using patch antennas instead of dipole antennas in the enclosures of wireless sensor networks nodes.
Editorial: New challenges for European cross-border and transboundary cooperation
Authors: Komornicki Tomasz
Published: August 2022

While a gradual increase in the permeability of the boundaries present in Europe was long seen as a linear process irreversible in nature, that situation in fact started to change around 2015. The process that then ensued reflected crises associated with influxes of refugees, the geopolitical situation in Ukraine, and then, from 2020 onwards, the COVID-19 pandemic. These changes might further be set against the two facts that there are, on the one hand, numerous locations in which cross-border or transboundary functional connections have become so strong that mechanisms hitherto acting in support of their development simply fail to suffice; as well as, on the other hand, many near-border areas that remain entirely peripheral. Pandemic circumstances made plain the inadequate level of institutional support extended to the development and functioning of transboundary functional areas, including as regards, their labour markets. And so to the articles brought together in the present edition of ‘Europa XXI’, which seek to address the above issues and derived research questions. They do this by way of both general reflection and the concrete results of research carried out on the situations in border areas, as well as the conditioning, level and structure of border traffic. Taken together, the texts presented here incline the reader to conclude that EU support for cross-border or transboundary cooperation needs redefining even in the present, and all the more so as we arrive at further programming periods. The support in question ought to be coordinated more effectively with Cohesion Policy as a whole, while also taking the global geopolitical context into account. It should also address matters of cross-border or transboundary public services, resilience in the face of crisis, and the natural heritage present in or constituted by border zones.
Spatial patterns and time-accessibility of supplier network of the automotive industry in Slovakia
Authors: Rusnák Jaroslav , Ďurček Pavol , Takáč Milan , Óvári Kristián
Published: August 2022

The article deals with the spatial pattern of the supply network of the automotive industry according to the time-accessibility to four car assembly plants in Slovakia. Empirical results are anchored in the spatial concept of integrated periphery and theoretical framework of the nested structure. We obtained the data after a personal meeting with the General Secretary of the Association of the Automotive Industry in Slovakia. The database contains a list of 313 suppliers of different levels. We assume that with increasing distance from automobile assembly plants and decreasing level of the supply network, the geographical concentration of the supply network will become lower. Our results confirm the assumption that tier-1 suppliers are located closer to assembly plants with higher geographical concentration compared to bottom suppliers‘ levels. On the other hand, these spatial patterns change when we consider a regional production system of the automotive industry that reaches beyond the national territory scale (e.g., KIA) or a launch of a new car assembly plant (JLR) arriving into a developed environment with an existing network of suppliers.
