ZLOUPOTREBA POVJERENJA U GOSPODARSKOME POSLOVANJU
Authors: Horović Sabrina , Stipanović Ivana , Zovko Ivan
Published: October 2022

Gospodarsko kazneno pravo danas je u mnogim zemljama predmet interesa teoretičara i praktičara kaznenoga prava. Problematika gospodarskih kaznenih djela u kaznenome zakonodavstvu
Bosne i Hercegovine posve je zanemarena. Dakle, opisi gospodarskih kaznenih djela u sadašnjim kaznenim zakonima u Bosni i
Hercegovini dobrim su dijelom zastarjeli. Stoga autori u radu
predlažu uvođenje novoga kaznenog djela Zloupotreba povjerenja
u gospodarskome poslovanju te analiziraju oblike i načine počinjenja toga kaznenog djela. Rad ne predstavlja na sustavan i iscrpan
način gospodarska kaznena djela u kaznenome zakonodavstvu
Bosne i Hercegovine, nego želi upozoriti na najvažnije poteškoće s kojima se susreće sudska praksa na području gospodarskoga
kaznenog prava, bez obzira na to imaju li one uzrok u nezadovoljavajućim zakonskim rješenjima ili sudovi iz drugih razloga ne
uspijevaju naći izlaz.
Za razumijevanje ovoga kaznenog djela iznimno je važno poznavati odredbe trgovačkoga i gospodarskoga prava kao i drugih grana
prava. Autori razmatraju radnju počinjenja koja se sastoji od više
sadržajno različitih djela.

COMMENCEMENT OF NEGOTIATIONS AND PRESENCE OF THE EU AS THE BASIS OF STABLE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA
Authors: Milićević Mirjana , Maletić Ivana , Kandžija Vinko
Published: October 2022

It is important for Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also for the European Union, that the negotiation process begins as soon as possible. Real changes in the legal, administrative and political sense
commence only with fulfilment of benchmarks for opening and
closing of chapters. The negotiation process is also important for
learning and progressing in the understanding of European policies which help to strengthen state institutions, democracy and
openness to grow and result with stronger economic growth due
to an increased level of trust and safety. It is important for the
European Union that the country at the very heart of Europe,
which belongs to Europe not only geographically, but also historically and in terms of tradition and culture, becomes a part of
it as soon as possible and also in terms of the standards it applies.
In this paper we give an overview of recommendations that the
European Commission has provided to Bosnia and Herzegovina
since 2002, and it is precisely from the recommendations which
are being repeated each year that the most important challenges
which Bosnia and Herzegovina needs to solve are still visible. Rule
of law, respecting human rights and rights of minorities, as well as
the constitutionality of the three nations, in addition to a fast and
efficient judicial system and the public sector as a whole are the key
elements for fulfilling political, legal and administrative criteria.
At the moment B&H is significantly lagging behind even the least
developed Member States and convergence towards the EU average
is necessary because on the current level B&H could not equally
participate in the EU Single Market, and accession would create more obstacles than advantages. The EU is expected to take a more active approach in solving the
challenges of economic convergence of B&H, therefore in this paper an overview is provided of the
priorities of the new EU Enlargement Strategy in which support to socioeconomic development is
pointed out as one of the initiatives.

happiness
Authors: Grigoryeva Elena
Published: October 2022

In 1974, the King of the small Himalayan nation of Bhutan announced to the world that his country would no longer pursue rapid economic growth like all other nations. Instead, Bhutan would measure its success in terms of gross national happiness. However, the king did not explain how he was going to measure national happiness. Anyway, the initiative was welcomed, and today we see how the concept of happiness has moved from the spheres of poetry and philosophy to the sphere of real politics and economics. The flow of various studies on happiness is increasing. The project “World Happiness Database” supported by the University of Dordrecht, the Netherlands is an attempt at least to enumerate such studies. But it is obvious that a group of enthusiasts cannot keep up with the flood of publications. A year ago, the database contained about 40,000 publications, with another 20,000 awaiting processing. About 800 books, articles and reports are added to this list every year.Since the time of Vedic sages and ancient philosophers, humanity has accumulated a huge number of definitions of happiness, and none of them can be considered outdated. The Dordrecht database proceeds from the simplest and most obvious definition: happiness is satisfaction with life. It means that people are as happy as they enjoy their life. There is only one way to determine a person’s level of happiness: to ask them directly or by indirect hints. People’s everyday actions indicate the direction of their happiness, where it is necessary to move to achieve it.Everyone strives for it, everyone thinks about it. Independently (from us)), the Festival ARCHSTOYANIE has chosen “Happiness exists” as the theme for this summer, and the International Union of Architects has announced “architecture for well-being” as the theme for the World Architecture Day. This issue contains some reflections of architects on what all science (according to the Strugatskys) deals with: human happiness (we use this quote from the Strugatskys as an epigraph to the round-table discussion). In this issue, we did not try to discover any single, unambiguously correct viewpoint on the concept of happiness and the ways of its achievement. Rather, we focused on showing at least a fragment of the endless spectrum of opinions and approaches to this eternal theme.

Source Mechanisms and transport Patterns of tropospheric BrO: Findings from long-term MAX-DOAS Measurements at two Antarctic Stations
Authors: Frieß Udo , Kreher Karin , Querel Richard , Schmithüsen Holger , Smale Dan , Weller Rolf , Platt Ulrich
Published: October 2022

Abstract. The presence of reactive bromine in Polar Regions is a widespread phenomenon that plays an important role in the photochemistry of the Arctic and Antarctic lower troposphere, including the destruction of ozone, the disturbance of radical cycles, and the oxidation of gaseous elemental mercury. The chemical mechanisms leading to the heterogeneous release of gaseous bromine compounds from saline surfaces are in principle well understood. There are, however, substantial uncertainties about the contribution of different potential sources to the release of reactive bromine, such as sea ice, brine, aerosols and the snow surface, as well as about the seasonal and diurnal variation and the vertical distribution of reactive bromine. Here we use continuous long-term measurements of the vertical distribution of bromine monoxide (BrO) and aerosols at the two Antarctic sites Neumayer (NM) and Arrival Heights (AH), covering the periods of 2003–2021 and 2012–2021, respectively, to investigate how chemical and physical parameters affect the abundance of BrO. We find the strongest correlation between BrO and aerosol extinction (R = 0.56 for NM and R = 0.28 for AH during spring), suggesting that the heterogeneous release of Br2 from saline airborne particles (blowing snow and aerosols) is a dominant source for reactive bromine. Positive correlations between BrO and contact time of air masses both, with sea ice and the Antarctic ice sheet suggest that reactive bromine is not only emitted by the sea ice surface, but by the snowpack on the ice shelf and in the coastal regions of Antarctica. In addition, the open ocean appears to represent a source for reactive bromine during late summer and autumn when the sea ice extent is at its minimum. A source-receptor analysis based on back trajectories together with sea ice maps shows that main source regions for BrO at NM is the Weddell Sea and the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf, as well as coastal polynias where sea ice is newly formed. A strong morning peak in BrO frequently occuring during summer, and particular during autumn, suggests a night-time built up of Br2 by heterogeneous reaction of ozone on the saline snow pack in the vicinity of the measurement sites. We furthermore show that BrO can be sustained for several days while travelling across the Antarctic continent in the absence of any saline surfaces that could serve as a source for reactive bromine.
Judicial Review of Directors' Duty of Care: A Comparison Between U.S. & China
Authors: Li Zhaoyi
Published: October 2022

Articles 147 and 148 of the Company Law of the People’s Republic of China (“Chinese Company Law”) establish that directors owe a duty of care to their companies. However, both of these provisions fail to explain the role of judicial review in enforcing this duty. The duty of care is a well-trodden territory in the United States, where directors’ liability is predicated on specific standards. The current American standard, adopted by many states, requires directors to “discharge their duties with the care that a person in a like position would reasonably believe appropriate under similar circumstances.” However, both the business judgment rule and Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporate Law (“DGCL”) shield directors from responsibility for their actions, which may weaken the impact of the duty of care requirement on director behavior. To better allocate the responsibility for directors’ violations of the duty of care and promote the corporations’ development, it is essential that Chinese company law establish a unified standard of review governing the duty of care owed by directors to companies. The majority of Chinese legal scholars agreed that a combination of subjective and objective standards would function best. Questions remain regarding how to combine such standards and implement them. In order to promote the development of China’s duty of care, these controversial issues need to be solved. This Article argues that China’s Company Law should hold a first-time violator of the duty of care liable only in cases of gross negligence but hold directors liable in the cases of ordinary negligence if they have violated the duty of care in the past.
On the Interpretation of No-Hire Provisions in Pennsylvania-- The Case for Utilizing Federal Antitrust Law
Authors: Greco Henry
Published: October 2022

Courts around the country lack guidance when evaluating the enforceability of an ancillary no-hire provision. In a jurisdiction without a statute directly on point, such as Pennsylvania, the paths taken thus far have ranged from adopting a noncompete framework to looking to other jurisdictions for assistance to relying on public policy rationales. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court recently adopted a test based on the reasonableness of the challenged provision, but the factors and the overarching reasoning confuse and conflate the concepts of “restraints of trade” and “restrictive covenants,” making it more difficult to reach a clear, sensible, and permanent solution.
This Note draws a simple, logical line connecting no-hire provisions and the federal Rule of Reason test, advocating for its use whenever the enforceability of a no-hire provision is at issue. I argue that a no-hire provision is correctly categorized as a horizontal restraint of trade, that only reasonable restraints of trade are enforceable, and that the federal Rule of Reason test is the method by which the reasonability of a restraint is determined. Using this test provides a time-tested, inclusive, and fact-intensive framework that produces a well-considered and thorough conclusion as to the reasonability of a particular no-hire provision.
Redefining the Right to Public Education
Authors: Besteman Vivi R.
Published: October 2022

The failure to recognize education as a fundamental constitutional right has meant that the quality of education in public schools varies greatly depending on where students live. This Note analyzes the origins of education litigation, current state constitutional standards for education quality, and previous arguments in support of a federal constitutional right to education. It then examines two recent cases, A.C. v. Raimondo and Gary B. v. Whitmer, and advocates for their novel stance on education rights: education is an implicit right that allows students to become meaningful participants in democracy.

Regulatory Changes to Livestock Waste
Authors: Sladkova N. A.
Published: October 2022

This article discusses the features of the application of new requirements in the field of animal waste management. From March 2023, a number of new provisions in the legislation come into force, which contribute to the transfer of animal waste from the jurisdiction of the environmental area to a new industry for the management of animal by-products.

The adopted changes are aimed at increasing the efficiency of involving livestock by-products in agricultural production, including to ensure the reproduction of the fertility of agricultural land, and should help reduce the administrative burden on agricultural producers.

However, the introduced norms in a number of cases leave the dual position of animal husbandry waste, keeping the requirements of environmental legislation regarding them as production and consumption waste.

One of the most important problems of modern ecology and protection of natural resources is the problem of formation, functioning and sustainability of ecosystems in urbanized territories. We conducted observations to assess the specific anthropogenic load in the city associated with people visiting recreational areas. The urban reservoirs of St. Petersburg have a high level of pollution with household and recreational garbage and a low level of pollution with industrial garbage. The total proportion of dead zooplankton in relation to live ones ranged from low (10.8%) to medium (46.2%), and in reservoirs with maximum indicators of garbage contamination, the proportion of dead zooplankton is higher.
EFFECTS OF PARENTING STYLES AND PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT ON A STUDENT'S ACADEMIC SELF-CONCEPT IN RELATION TO THEIR ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN THE 2020 SEA EXAMINATION
Authors:   The University of the Southern Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago, John Kishon J.
Published: October 2022

The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between three parenting styles, academic self-concept, and academic performance as well as the mediating effect of two of Joyce Epstein’s parental involvement typologies (learning at home and volunteering). The quantitative, online cross-sectional survey study utilized a correlational research design conducted on 75 students and their parents (N=75) selected via purposive sampling from three primary schools in the Port of Spain and Environs Education District. Parents' and students' responses were matched and scored for analytical purposes. The correlation between parenting styles and academic performance was computed through Spearman’s Rank correlation coefficient. The results of the study showed that there was a very weak statistically significant association between authoritarian and authoritative parenting styles and academic performance. Permissive parenting accounted for a very weak negative statistically significant association. Spearman’s Rank correlation coefficient was also used to determine the association between parenting styles and academic self-concept. The results showed a very weak statistically significant association between authoritative and permissive parenting and academic self-concept. Contrasting results were present for authoritarian parenting which revealed a low positive statistically significant association. Results from the mediating hypothesis revealed parental involvement insignificantly affected students’ performances. One recommendation for this study focused on the proposal of a longitudinal approach which may provide a comprehensive timeline of how the influence of parenting styles and involvement evolves over time. This study only provided a snippet of early adolescent relations with their parents.

La sequía y sus consecuencias: un nuevo desafío a nivel local
Authors: Moreira Claudio
Published: October 2022

El consumo y producción a nivel mundial de alimentos está en riesgo, la población aumenta, los países se desarrollan, los escenarios cambian, y a raíz de la incertidumbre, el Estado se ve obligado a aumentar los esfuerzos para alcanzar el desarrollo esperado y abastecer a los ciudadanos. La sequía, que actualmente se ha profundizado por la escasez de lluvias causada por el cambio climático como consecuencia de la acción humana, ha puesto en jaque no solamente el abastecimiento, sino también la producción y el consumo responsable. La huella hídrica que cada persona o industria va dejando día a día, socaba las reservas para los miles de ciudadanos que se proyecta habiten y convivan en las ciudades y localidades de cada nación. En el presente ensayo, el análisis estará orientado en las consecuencias que trae la sequía a nivel local. Se identificarán conductas que han potenciado la escasez de agua en las regiones, así como las posibles crisis asociadas; las que, de no ser abordadas, se podrían transformar en verdaderas catástrofes ambientales. Como la escasez de alimentos antes mencionada, la migración dentro del territorio o el aumento en la ocurrencia de incendios forestales.
Making-be of expressions
Authors: Södergren Antonia Clasina
Published: October 2022

Although children’s inputs are actively implemented in co-creation processes, their young age calls on design researchers to apply deeper dimensions of sensitivity-in-practice to understand the voice of these very young participants. This study explores how a participatory design process can allow pre-schoolers to express their intuitive experiences of materials and demonstrate what they, using self-reliance, can do with these. This investigation is centred around materials and crafting to let children’s repertoire of expressions come forth rather than following the lead of adults. Two case studies incorporated pre-schoolers’ need for playful body sensory stimulations by triggering experimental aesthetic experiences in a three-step design process. Results identified a pre-schooler’s well-being and motivation for expression as linked to relations of self-awareness – the experience of having a role as an individual and as part of a group. Also, the distinct intuitive sensitivity of pre-schoolers to their environments resulted in understanding the meaning of free exploration of materials for child expressions in design research. This study contributes a dialogue tool mapping the sensations and connections of how children create tangible expressions as their ‘voice’. Further research should investigate improvements in well-being brought about by this tool in different high-risk groups with lower levels of well-being.
Stable intimacy
Authors: Salaric Petra , Cain Rebecca , Zitkus Emilene , Visch Valentijn
Published: October 2022

Humans have the innate need to belong and relate to others. Stable relationships are a great influencer of happiness and health and, therefore, should receive stronger attention for their nurture. Online environment is steadily becoming the primary source of relationship formation, however, its instability poses threats to build stable relationships. Since online communication is increasingly used in relationship formation and communication, it holds opportunities for design interventions that support stable relationship creation. This paper introduces a pyramidical laddering approach that guides the building of online communication from the basis of stable creation of intimacy, to satisfying the needs of belonging and relatedness, to ultimately delivering wellbeing. The approach that was developed through the authors’ prior research aims to deal with the identified main barriers of online communication, distrust and disengagement, and their influence on the formation of stable connections in order to enable healthy intimacy formation in the online environment. This paper brings attention to the importance of romantic relationships on health and highlights opportunities for further research in the thus far under-researched area of design for relation making to support wellbeing and health of society.
Pharmacogenetic Biomarkers and Personalized Medicine: Upcoming Concept in Pharmacotherapy
Authors: Ramayanam Navakanth Raju , Amarnath Rajesh Nanda , Vijayakumar Thangavel Mahalingam
Published: October 2022

Pharmacogenomics is the study of an individual's response to drugs as a result of their genetic makeup. Pharmacogenomics has been merged with pharmacology and genomics to produce safe and effective drugs that are customized to the unique genetic profile of each individual. Drug prescribing focused on pharmacogenomics opens up a modern avenue for developing and prescribing safe and efficient drugs to specific patients. Patients that are prescribed medications that are more appropriate to them based on their physiology and lifestyle characteristics are referred to as obtaining personalized medicine. The medicinal use of molecularly targeted agents, which are commonly used for customized therapies, could aid in disease detection in a small number of patients. To assess the advantage of selected patients with genomic changes to a given treatment, clinical trial research designs for different diagnostics and therapeutics must aim for rate-limiting steps. Precision medicine techniques are used to classify specific patients' genetic flaws in the hopes of identifying new disease-prevention treatments. Precision medicine, on the other hand, is more precise in clinical practice, with an emphasis on identifying new therapeutic targets, recent advances in molecular testing trials, and a variety of advanced approaches are available for collecting biological samples in clinical practice to conduct genomic processing. Pharmacogenomics biomarkers use customized drugs to anticipate the incidence of diseases in the future.

Authors: Shailaja Pashikanti , Satya Ashok Kunche
Published: October 2022

In the modern era of drug delivery, microsponges have their own tremendous properties of porous nature, due to this porous nature they have a capacity to entrap active drug and acts as a drug carrier because of this entrapment controlling the drug release and targeting the drug to a particular site is possible. Initially, this microsponge drug delivery has been used for topical route and later on oral route, recently, researches focused on the pulmonary and parenteral route of delivery. The present review aims at the development of microsponge technology in oral drug delivery, preparation, formulation considerations, characterization, recent advancements, and future prospects of microsponge drug delivery.
Next-generation HPC models for future rotorcraft applications
Authors: Sanguini Nicoletta
Published: October 2022

Rotorcraft technologies pose great scientific and industrial challenges for numerical computing. As available computational resources approach the exascale, shifting legacy workflows and optimizing parallel efficiency and scalability of existing software on new hardware is often demanding. This is the case for the Leonardo Company, whose cutting-edge davinci-1 high-performance computing (HPC) cluster, powered by NVIDIA A100 GPUs, is currently being tested in order to be made available for engineering working groups.
This talk will report preliminary results in CFD simulations using the T106A Low Pressure Turbine blade geometry on the HPC facility. Time to solution and weak and strong scalability on davinci-1’s GPU nodes are assessed for PyFR as well as commercial packages Ansys Fluent® and STAR-CCM+®. The results provide a first assessment of the potential of HPC architectures in scaling engineering applications towards certification by simulation, and the first step for the Company towards the use of innovative HPC toolkits in the field of Rotorcraft technologies.
Social Change: A Gestalt Approach
Authors: Melnick Joseph
Published: October 2022

This article addresses some of the dilemmas generated by social change initiatives faced by Gestalt practitioners and by anyone involved in such efforts (the word practitioner is being used to include therapist, intervener, coach, and consultant). First, a few assumptions are noted, then the term social change is defined, and next the focus is on psychotherapy, which includes a case study of my experience working in a Veterans Administration Hospital. This is followed by an examination of conflict which, if not the cause of social friction, is often an outcome difficult to address. Finally, a set of process-oriented principles that can help guide social change practitioners are offered.
Mobilizing Commitment for Social Change: Two Cases
Authors: Gross Thomas F.
Published: October 2022

Social change processes involve multiple, diverse constituencies attempting to collaborate. What major factors enable or hinder them to work through their differences and come to shared awareness, mobilized commitment, and implementation of their goals? Two cases of multi-stakeholder social change will be examined: one successful and one problematic. In the first case, my role was as the facilitator/consultant, whereas in the second case, my role was as a participant. The Genesis Transformation Model explains some of the effective dynamics in the first case, and some of the problematic dynamics in the second. For a deeper understanding of why the first case was successful and the second one problematic, Gestalt therapy concepts are helpful.
Preferencias y resultados electorales en campañas políticas municipales de 2021: un análisis exploratorio en los casos de Guadalajara y San Pedro Tlaquepaque
Authors: Rodríguez Hernández Edgar Ricardo , Preciado Rodríguez Teresa Magnolia
Published: October 2022

La mayoría de los políticos utilizaron las redes sociales digitales en las campañas electorales para evitar contagios por COVID-19 y persuadir en las preferencias del electorado. Ante esta situación, el objetivo del trabajo es explorar el vínculo entre las preferencias electorales online y offline con los resultados de las elecciones de 2021 en dos casos municipales: Guadalajara y San Pedro Tlaquepaque. Para ello, durante el periodo de campaña se monitorearon las preferencias electorales en Facebook y se propusieron cuatro escenarios que permiten explorar la posibilidad de que un munícipe resulte ganador en la elección. Los hallazgos permiten deducir que las preferencias electorales tanto online como offline se relacionan de forma positiva con los resultados oficiales de las elecciones municipales.

El presente trabajo aborda de forma comparada la calidad de la democracia en dieciocho democracias de América Latina en el decenio 2009 – 2019. Se describe el rendimiento de las democracias a través de un indicador agregado construido mediante un Análisis Factorial de Factor Común. A nivel general, se observa que no existe un retroceso significativo de la calidad de la democracia en la región. Se definen tres grupos de países según su grado de democraticidad y aquellos que disminuyeron su calidad democrática se ubican en los sectores extremos de la escala. En la última década, Chile es la democracia que más ha descendido en su calidad democrática y Argentina es la que más ha subido.
THE MATHEMATICAL MODELING OF HEART BEATS NUMERICALLY
Authors: Abdel Rahman Abdel Gadir Abdel Radi , Hadi Haidar ِ Alamin Hind Abdel , Mohammed Elnaeem Hassan Abdelrhman
Published: October 2022

Each normal heart beat begins with the discharge depolarization of the sinoatrial (SA) node, high up in the right atrium. This is a spontaneous event, occurring 60–100 times every minute. Depolarization of the SA node does not cause any noticeable wave on the standard ECG (although it can be seen on specialized intracardiac recordings). The first detectable wave appears when the impulse spreads from the SA node to depolarize the atria. This produces the P wave. The atria contain relatively little muscle, so the voltage generated by atrial depolarization is relatively small. From the viewpoint of most leads, the electricity appears. The aim of this study depends on collecting, describing and analyzing information using several examples and types of curves theory. Several stages of the proposed models are designed and implemented on the solution programs used in Matlab programming .The quality algorithm was programming . The quality algorithm was used and developed to classification heart beats for accurate results. The proposed model contributed to providing an integrated computer  solution for all stage of the classification starting from the stage of classification of heart beats in curve theory and the stage of displaying and representing the results graphically in the Matlab program . this was done by sampled taker ECG from patients to reach accurate readings that provide an ideal model applicable in many of the techniques that contribute to solving our daily problems.

A francia forradalom és a napóleoni háborúk Magyarország-képe
Authors: Botos Máté
Published: October 2022

A Magyar Királyság 1711-et követő betagolódása a Habsburg-birodalomba az önálló államiság feladását jelentette a külföld nézőpontjából. A birodalmon belüli sajátos státusz nem volt értelmezhető sem az Ancien Régime, sem a forradalom Franciaországa számára. A magyar nemzet, mint rendi fogalom 1789 után idejétmúlttá vált a francia közgondolkodásban, ahol hazánk csak a katonai-stratégiai tervek részeként jelenik meg. A magyar kultúra elsődleges képviselői a katonatisztek és a huszárok lesznek, akikkel a csatatéren találkozik majd a forradalmi – később a napóleoni – hadvezetés. A francia hírszerzés csak a napóleoni konzulátus időszakában kezd el érdeklődni a belpolitikai viszonyok iránt és fogalmazódik meg stratégiai célként a birodalomról leválasztott magyar állam ötlete. Az élő kapcsolatok híján – leszámítva a magyar nemesség és polgári értelmiség maroknyi csoportjának viszonzatlan frankofíliáját – a francia politika nem mérte fel reálisan a magyarországi belső viszonyokat és két ízben is kudarcot vallott azt a szándékát illetően, hogy a nemesi felkelést a Habsburg-ház ellen robbantsa ki. A győri csata után mindennek már nem lesz jelentősége, ám a magyarországi reformkor megerősödése mögött ott húzódik az Osztrák Birodalom alkukényszere, amely a magyarországi katonai emberanyag folyamatos utánpótlására volt rászorulva a háborúk és az azt követő egyensúlyi helyzet fenntartása korszakában. A francia forradalmi gondolkodás alapvetően tévedett tehát „a magyarok” politikai cselekvési lehetőségeit, szándékait és társadalmi-kulturális hagyományait illetően. A kudarcot azonban nem bosszú, hanem érdektelenség követte, így Magyarország és a magyar kultúra a francia politikában 1809 után, Napóleon bukásáig újra kikerül az érdeklődés homlokteréből.
A magyar zene, a magyarok, a romantikus hősi toposz és a Rákóczi-induló fogadtatása Franciaországban
Authors: Pethő-Vernet Csilla
Published: October 2022

A tanulmány középpontjában a 19. századi magyar zene francia értékelése áll, a vizsgált művészeti ág egyik sajátságos, a magyar nemzeti jelleget kifejező aspektusának, a hősi karakternek a fényében. Bemutatja, hogy a jelenség hátterében húzódó kulturális és történelmi háttér hogyan segítette elő azt, hogy a franciák a hősiességben a magyar profil lényegi elemét ismerjék fel. Ezt követően rávilágít arra, hogy ez a látásmód miképpen befolyásolta általában véve a magyar zene, és különösképpen a Rákóczi-induló, e forradalmi aurája miatt mind Magyarországon, mind Franciaországban szimbolikus tartalommal felruházott zenemű fogadtatását. Az elemzés ezzel párhuzamosan részletesen kitér a vizsgált darab francia értelmezését meghatározó egyéb tényezőkre, amelyek több elemből tevődnek össze, és amelyek révén végsősoron egy olyan kép alakul ki a szóban forgó műről, ami a befogadó (francia) kultúrát legalább annyira jellemzi, mint az eredeti magyart. Ezek az elemek magukba foglalják a nyugati közönség „hős” virtuóz iránt érzett rajongását és azt a jellegzetesen franciás vonzódást, ami a zenében felidézett csatazajokra (mint a nagy francia forradalom örökségére) irányul. E hagyománynak és a korabeli forrásokban fellelhető, képszerű csatazene-leírásoknak köszönhetően a Rákóczi-induló egy látványos, hősi-militáris dimenzióval gazdagodik Franciaországban, amely még hangsúlyosabbá teszi a magyarokról alkotott hősies képet.
