السياسات العامة للامن الغذائي بعد جائحة كورونا( العراق إنموذجا)
Authors: ياسر طلال نضير
Published: July 2024

من خلال البحث ، يمكن القول ان السياسة العامة هي احد العلوم الحديثة التي يجب إعطاء أهمية كبيرة لها ، لما لها من تاثير على البلد على كافة المستويات السياسية والاقتصادية والاجتماعية ، والدول المتقدمة استطاعت ان تبني نفسها وتصل الى مستوى عال من الرفاهية والتطور نتيجة اهتمامها بوضع سياسات عامة ، وخطط ، وبرامج ، تسير عليها لتنفيذ مشاريعها وأهدافها .
الامن الغذائي لايقل أهمية عن الامن الوطني او القومي على عد انه جزء منه ،  فالدول التي حققت الامن الغذائي استطاعت ان تحقق الاكتفاء الذاتي التي مكنها من اشباع حاجات المجتمع ، وجعلتها قادرة ليس فقط على  تصدير المواد والسلع الغذائية الى الدول التي تعاني من عجز في امنها الغذائي ، بل استطاعت أيضا الضغط على صانع القرار في اتخاذ القرارات التي تخدم مصالحها .
على الرغم من الموارد التي يمتلكها العراق الى انه لم يستطيع تحقيق الامن والاكتفاء والاستقرار في المجتمع ، بل كان اكثر عرضة للتهديد وانعدام الاستقرار بسبب التحديات الداخلية ( التصحر ، انخفاض منسوب المياه ، تدهور الإنتاج الزراعي ) ، والتحديات الخارجية ( جائحة كورونا ) ( الصراع الروسي الاوكراني ) ، التي انعكست بشكل او باخر على الطبقات الاجتماعية ، وخاصة الطبقات الفقيرة المعدومة الدخل ، على رغم من القرارات التي اتخذتها الحكومة العراقية لمعالجة مشكلة ارتفاع الأسعار ودعم فئات ذوي الدخل المحدود ، الى انها لم تقضي على خطر الامن الغذائي واصبح يشكل عبئا ثقيلا على الدولة .

Community Participation in Corporate Social Responsibility Practices of North Mara Gold Mine in Tanzania
Authors: Gillo Immaculate O. ,   Institute of Rural Development Planning, Bilame Odas , Assenga Emiliana A. ,   The University of Dodoma,   The University of Dodoma
Published: July 2024

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) projects that do not engage local communities around the areas of their operation are often unsuccessful or rejected by their intended beneficiaries. In Tanzania, some communities ignore or reject CSR projects, raising doubts about whether they were initially involved in such projects. Drawing from North Mara Gold Mine CSR initiatives, this paper argues that community acceptance or rejection of CSR projects relates to the extent to which the mining company engages with the community. The paper utilises survey data drawn from a systematic sample of 358 households. In addition, it uses data from interviews, documentary review and focus group discussions. The study applies descriptive and content analysis to make sense of the data. The results show inadequate involvement of communities around the goldmine in all the stages of the CSR project cycle. Consequently, the North Mara Gold Mine’s CSR initiatives have not served as an effective tool to harmonise community relations and mitigate conflicts.

Published: July 2024

Arms proliferation is a security concern for many countries and has recently been severely experienced in Nigeria. This study, through a descriptive research design, examined arms smuggling and arms proliferation and its attendant effects on violent conflict in Ogun State. The study adopted the Failed State theory as its theoretical framework and the questionnaire as a primary instrument of data collection. Using a simple random sampling technique, 400 respondents were sampled out of a target population of 23,258. Descriptive and ANOVA analysis were applied and the hypotheses, tested. The study found that arms are proliferated into Ogun State through Idiroko border via different routes and means. The study also established that arms proliferation has significant effects on violent conflicts in Ogun State. It concludes that if arms proliferation continues unrestricted, Ogun State would become a hub for militarised civil life and weaken state control. The study therefore recommends policy interventions that target arms smuggling and disarmament to curb arms proliferation. It also underscores the need for the government to address underlying drivers of violence and strengthen state institutions.

Authors: Madaki Willaim Musa , Kaigama Kwapsoni Pius , Ayagwa Famous Nengem
Published: July 2024

This paper explored critical issues in broadcasting through the lens of technological determinism, acknowledging its role in shaping the present landscape while calling for a cautious evaluation of its consequences. The paper utilised the Technological Determinism Theory to explain the topic and employed a qualitative research method, gathering data from secondary sources like textbooks, internet materials, journal articles, and websites. The study found that the landscape of broadcasting has undergone significant transformations in recent years, driven by advancements in technology. These changes have brought forth a multitude of issues that impact both media organizations and society at large. To address these challenges, media organizations and policymakers must collaborate to strike a balance between embracing technological advancements and upholding principles of diversity, accuracy, and societal well-being. The study concludes that it is essential to recognize the agency of human decisions in shaping broadcasting practices rather than being solely driven by technological forces to navigate the future of broadcasting responsibly and sustainably.
Computational Identification Of Human TGFΒ1 Gene: SNPS And Prediction Of Their Effect On Protein Functions Of Preeclampsia Patients
Authors: Yaseen Omar Qahtan ,   Department Of Heet Education, General Directorate Of Education In Anbar, Ministry Of Education, Hit, Anbar 31007, Iraq
Published: July 2024

Growth factor (TGF-β1) belongs to the superfamily (TGF-β) as it has different roles and functions and participates in various physiological, biological, and pathological processes. The protein (TGF-β1) works to regulate cellular processes through pathways in which there is a connection to membrane receptors, which are of two types, I and II. Gene expression (TGF-β1) as well as its receptors can occur in the human placenta. This study aimed to identify some molecular parameters that could be considered accurate diagnostic parameters. Predictive bioinformatics techniques were used to predict whether the change occurring in the amino acid within the protein chain would affect the function of the protein in the future and thus the occurrence of the disease. The disease database, in which mutations were found, will be used and registered in the future. Mutations that occurred in the coding region that changed the amino acid in the protein were identified and tabulated in special tables. After that, the protein’s sequence was obtained, and four predictive bioinformatics algorithms were applied. The results of this study showed that most of the mutations affect the natural protein. The effect may be on the physical and chemical properties, and it may be on the structural stability of the protein. Conclusions The candidate mutations in this study are mutations that can be considered diagnostic molecular indicators of preeclampsia.
Punishment of Rape Perpetrators from Qonun Jinayat's Perspective (Decision No. 2/JN/2022/MS-Sat Jo. Decision No. 3/JN/2023/MS. Aceh and Decision No. 3/JN/2019/MS.Skm)

Qanun is a policy of the Aceh government which has special privileges in implementing special autonomy based on Law Number 11 of 2006 concerning Aceh Government which mandates the application of Islamic law to the entire region of Nangroe Aceh Darussalam Province. However, these provisions are very different from the provisions of the criminal law that applies in Indonesia, especially in imposing criminal sanctions in rape cases. This thesis research will examine the comparison of criminal sanctions for perpetrators of the crime of rape according to Qanun Jinayat and Criminal Code No. 1 of 1946, criminal sentences in case decision No. 2/JN/2022/MS-Sat Jo. Decision No. 3/JN/2023/MS. Aceh and Decision no. 3/JN/2019/MS. The SKM is appropriate based on the objectives of punishment, the policy of formulating punishment for perpetrators of the crime of rape based on Qanun Jinayat in the future. The type of research used in this thesis research is doctrial legal research using a statutory approach, conceptual approach and case approach. Results of the research: The criminal sanctions imposed between cases of criminal acts of rape in the Criminal Code and criminal acts of rape in the Qanun Jinayat are very different. What both the Criminal Code and the Aceh Qanun have in common is that they both regulate that rape occurs outside of marriage, then both contain threats to anyone (anyone, everyone) meaning that there are sanctions from both laws. Criminal Imposition in Case Decision No. 2/JN/2022/MS-Sat Jo. Decision No. 3/JN/2023/MS. Aceh and Decision no. 3/JN/2019/MS. Skm is not in accordance with the purpose of punishment. The implementation of caning punishment in increasing public legal awareness is still considered not optimal. It is hoped that the competent institutions, namely the legislative body, in drafting the Aceh Qanun Jinayat, especially the Jarimah for sexual violence, can add a category for Jarimah based on the criteria for victims.

Published: July 2024

Sharia economics in Indonesia has great potential to develop. However, one of the main challenges in developing Sharia Economics is the limited number of competent Human Resources (HR) in this field. This research aims to determine the relationship between the role of the Indonesian government in increasing the quantity and quality of human resources in the Sharia economy. This research uses a mixed method research method. Data was collected through surveys using questionnaires and literature studies. The data that has been collected is then analyzed using a regression test using the SPSS program. The research results show that there is a significant relationship between the role of the Indonesian Government in increasing the quantity and quality of Sharia Economic Human Resources. The Indonesian Government's efforts to increase the quantity and quality of Sharia Economic Human Resources have shown positive results, but there are still several factors that hamper these efforts. Therefore, it is necessary to make several policy recommendations to increase the effectiveness of the Indonesian Government's role in increasing the quantity and quality of Sharia Economic Human Resources.
Adult education and training in comparative perspective - indicators of participation and country profiles
Authors: von Rosenbladt Bernhard
Published: July 2024

Lack of data has been a serious deficiency for comparative research on adult learning until recently. The present paper explores new opportunities based on the European Adult Education Survey (AES). It argues that general indicators of participation in adult education and training must be complemented by more specific indicators revealing sectoral structures and behavioural patterns within the adult learning system. AES as a subject-specific survey can help to understand better "what is behind" a general level of participation in adult learning, as provided in other statistics. Country variations are explored across a set of 16 European countries.
Fitting general linear model for longitudinal survey data under informative sampling
Authors: Eideh Abdulhakeem A. H.
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this article is to account for informative sampling in fitting superpopulation model for multivariate observations, and in particular multivariate normal distribution, for longitudinal survey data. The idea behind the proposed approach is to extract the model holding for the sample data as a function of the model in the population and the first order inclusion probabilities, and then fit the sample model using maximum likelihood, pseudo maximum likelihood and estimating equations methods. As an application of the results, we fit the general linear model for longitudinal survey data under informative sampling using different covariance structures: the exponential correlation model, the uniform correlation model, and the random effect model, and using different conditional expectations of first order inclusion probabilities given the study variable. The main feature of the present estimators is their behaviours in terms of the informativeness parameters.
A typology of Polish farms using probabilistic D-Clustering
Authors: Młodak Andrzej , Kubacki Jan
Published: July 2024

The Agricultural Census conducted in Poland in 2010 was partially based on administrative sources. These data collection will be supplemented by sample survey of agricultural farm. This research is aimed at creation of an effective typology of Polish farms, which is necessary for proper sampling and reflection of many special types of agricultural activity, such as combining it with non- agricultural work. We propose some universal form of such typology constructed using data collected from administrative sources during the preliminary agricultural census conducted in autumn 2009. It is based on the especially prepared method of fuzzy clustering, i.e. probabilistic d-clustering adopted for interval data. For this reason, and because of an ambiguous impact of some key variables on classification, relevant criterions are presented as intervals. They are arbitrarily established, but also - as an alternative way - are generated endogenically, using an original optimization algorithm. For a better comparison, relevant classification for data collected „from nature” is provided.
Reducing pain: New approaches, new possibilities, and new ways of understanding the brain
Authors: Gray Hardcastle
Published: July 2024

In 2020, the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) changed its definition of pain to just an "an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience. " Since then, several philosophers have attempted to reaffirm the impossibility of reducing pain to neurobiology from a variety of approaches, including eliminativism, multiple realizability, and intersubjectivity. All of their arguments assume that there are no specific biomarkers for pain. I adumbrate a more ecumenical path: that while these approaches have some merit, they also misstate how brains function. Once we shift our view regarding how brains operate, then pain processing is just as "mysterious" as other types of complex brain processes.
Grahek-style imperativism

Serbia 2024-2033: Debt sustainability and growth performance testing
Authors: Kovačević Miladin , Stevović Milena
Published: July 2024

This paper examines Serbia's external debt sustainability in order to assess the applicability of the selected growth model. To this end, an empirical model was created for the generation of long-term projections and assessment of debt sustainability. The model distinguishes itself from existing models created by the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank as a practical tool. The macroeconomic balance table approach of the model, in contrast to these existing models, ensures that changes in one table reflect changes in others, thus ensuring both internal and external validity. It harmonizes individual macroeconomic aggregates and variables by combining them all at the same time. As a result, a detailed framework of interconnected long-term forecasts is established. In addition to this, the second part of the paper is dedicated to dynamic analysis of external debt by investigating which factors contribute to the creation of external debt and assessing their impact. In order to understand the extent of these contributions, a sensitivity analysis of the debt is performed. Utilizing this model of macro-projections, we can examine the debt path and evaluate how projected debt values respond to different macroeconomic shocks. This is particularly crucial given the growing global uncertainty, which includes both economic changes and security issues. Current conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza are likely to make investors more cautious about investing abroad. This presents significant challenges for small and open economies like Serbia in obtaining the necessary funding for its planned economic growth and development.
Melanonychia as a diagnostic challenge
Authors: Jandrić-Kočič Marijana
Published: July 2024

Melanonychia involves black-brown discoloration of the nail plate and nail matrix epithelium caused by melanin accumulation. Etiologically, we distinguish simple melanocyte activation and melanocyte proliferation. Melanocyte proliferation can be benign (such as lentigo and nevus) and malignant (subungual melanoma). Although they have similar clinical characteristics, their prognoses are significantly different. The paper presents two cases of melanonychia. In the first case, a 13-year-old boy had linear black-brown discoloration of the nail plate of the index finger of the left, non-dominant hand. There was no nail plate dystrophy, periungual pigmentation, or bleeding. Medical and family histories were unremarkable. Onychoscopic examination diagnosed a nevus of the nail plate. In the second case, an adult woman had linear brown discoloration of the nail plate of the thumb of the right, dominant hand. The discoloration had discreetly irregular edges without signs of nail plate dystrophy, periungual pigmentation, or bleeding. Medical and family histories were unremarkable. After onychoscopic examination, longitudinal excisional biopsy was indicated, establishing the diagnosis of lentigo. Careful history taking, physical examination, onychoscopic examination, and ultimately biopsy with histological examination allow for determining etiology, as well as for an early diagnosis of subungual melanoma as the most important precondition for successful disease treatment.
Case report: tonsillar cancer
Authors: Stojković Eva , Stefanović Tanja
Published: July 2024

INTRODUCTION: Tonsillar cancers are most commonly squamous cell carcinomas, followed by lymphomas, mostly non-Hodgkin's type. The disease often remains asymptomatic for a long time, and patients typically present with odynophagia, dysphagia, and enlarged lymph nodes in the neck. It is increasingly seen in younger populations, with the most common cause being proven infection with high-risk types of human papillomavirus. CASE REPORT: A 62-year-old patient presented to their primary care physician complaining of ear pain and difficulty swallowing. Examination revealed an enlarged left tonsillar fossa with grayish deposits extending towards the soft palate. Biopsy confirmed squamous cell infiltrating carcinoma of the tonsil. HPV typing demonstrated the presence of human papillomavirus type 16. An oncology consultation first included two courses of chemotherapy, resulting in partial improvement in the patient's general condition, followed by bio-radiotherapy. After bio-radiotherapy, the patient experienced pain relief, denied swallowing difficulties, and the tumor mass was significantly reduced, barely visible. Further monitoring and treatment continued as per the recommendations of the Oncology Consultation.

Authors: ADENIRAN Adetayo Olaniyi , Ben SIDIQ Okwudili , OYENIRAN Gbemileke Tobi , ADENIRA Adedayo Ayomide
Published: July 2024

Purpose: This study investigated the digital transformation in logistics and its effects on sustainability. It provides answers to questions about what digital transformation and related technologies are in logistics, how the transformation altered the operational processes, and which merits have been realized as a result of digital transformation. As part of the fourth industrial revolution, most businesses are digitally transformed. Since commerce is the primary focus of the digital revolution, phrases like "Commerce of the Future" and "E-Commerce" are used interchangeably with this idea.
Methodology: Qualitative research methods and semi-structured interviews were used to elicit information from participants in six (6) e-commerce logistics companies in Nigeria. Seventeen (17) pertinent criteria are identified, of which ten relate to the economic feature of sustainability, two relate to the environmental feature, and the remaining five relate to the social feature.
Findings: From the sustainability dimensions, the economic impacts of digitization outweighed the other two dimensions, even though the evaluation of some criteria by the participants was ambiguous. Digitization of logistics has great merits regarding cost, delivery time, delay, inventory, dependability, and flexibility. Aside from this, it was found that the social effects of digitization, such as better health outcomes and decreasing accident occurrences, have little bearing on society. While the digitalization of logistics may alleviate safety and health issues, it was less accepted because it was perceived as a threat to labor involvement.
Originality/value: The study demonstrated the significant sustainability impact of digital transformation in logistics as it gives birth to e-commerce logistics operations.

The win lose solution nature of the criminal justice process often leads to disappointment. In addition, the judicial process, which is expected to be a formal way, turns out to be expensive, prolonged, tiring and sometimes does not solve the problem. From this phenomenon, efforts to reform the national criminal law are needed, one of which is the concept of "restorative justice". Therefore, the purpose of this research is to explain and analyse how Restorative Justice is resolved and to examine whether Restorative Justice has fulfilled the principles of justice and legal certainty. The research method used is normative juridical. The results of this study are Restorative Justice is carried out by means of a mediation and dialogue process by including victims, perpetrators, families of perpetrators / victims and other parties involved can work together to create an agreement for a fair and balanced settlement of the case for both parties whose purpose is to restore the situation to its original state and restore patterns of good relations in society. The implementation of case settlement through restorative justice as an alternative settlement of certain cases is in accordance with the purpose of the law itself, namely to fulfil the principles of justice and legal certainty.
