From Trust to Turnover: Unpacking the Consequences of Brand Transgressions with Religiosity as a Moderator
Authors: Adnan Waseem Muhammad , Faisal Kamal Muhammad
Published: October 2024

This study investigates the impact of brand transgression on consumer trust, brand loyalty, and purchase intentions, while examining the moderating role of religiosity. Brand transgression, defined as a violation of consumer expectations or ethical standards, often leads to a significant loss of trust. Using a quantitative approach, we collected data from 200 participants via a scenario-based survey to explore these relationships. The results show that brand transgression negatively affects consumer trust, which, in turn, mediates the relationship between brand transgression and both brand loyalty and purchase intentions. Furthermore, religiosity significantly moderates the effect of brand transgression on consumer trust, with highly religious consumers exhibiting greater trust erosion following a brand transgression. These findings provide theoretical contributions by highlighting trust as a crucial mediator and religiosity as an important moderating factor. Practically, the study offers insights for managers, emphasizing the need to rebuild trust through transparent actions and ethical behavior, especially when addressing religiously sensitive audiences. Limitations of the study include the use of a cross-sectional design and hypothetical scenarios, which future research could address by employing longitudinal or real-world experimental designs. Additionally, future studies could examine other moderating variables, such as cultural values or moral identity, to expand the understanding of consumer responses to brand transgressions across diverse settings. Overall, this research underscores the importance of trust in brand-consumer relationships and offers valuable implications for managing brand transgressions in sensitive markets.
Mending the Image: The Role of Crisis Communication and Apology Strategies in Recovering from Brand Transgressions
Authors: Adnan Waseem Muhammad , Faisal Kamal Muhammad
Published: October 2024

This study investigates the impact of brand transgression on brand image, with a focus on the moderating roles of crisis communication, religiosity, and the effectiveness of apology strategies in brand recovery. Brand transgressions, defined as violations of consumer expectations or ethical standards, often result in a significant loss of consumer trust and negative shifts in brand perception. Drawing on a sample of 400 consumers, the study examines whether timely crisis communication and well-structured apology strategies can mitigate the detrimental effects of brand transgressions on brand image. Additionally, religiosity is explored as a moderating factor, given that highly religious consumers may respond more severely to perceived ethical violations. The results confirm that brand transgression has a strong negative impact on brand image. Effective crisis communication strategies significantly reduce this impact, while apology strategies contribute positively to brand image recovery. Moreover, religiosity exacerbates the adverse effects of transgression, with highly religious consumers showing a lower tendency to forgive and restore trust. These findings provide valuable insights for brand managers on how to handle crises effectively, suggesting that a combination of clear communication, sincere apologies, and an understanding of cultural and religious sensitivities can assist in maintaining and recovering brand image. The study also highlights the importance of tailoring brand responses to audience characteristics in crises. Limitations and future research directions are discussed.

Defending the Pluralistic Minimum Universality of Human Rights
Authors: Başkan Burak
Published: October 2024

The idea of ‘universal human rights’ has emerged as a significant topic on the global agenda with the intensification of globalisation through technological change, the spread of transport and digital communication tools, and the increased visibility of instances of gross human rights violations in diverse regions worldwide. However, the spirit of the ‘Universal Declaration of Human Rights’, which emerged in the aftermath of the wave of fascism in 20th century Europe and the devastation of the Second World War, is still unable to penetrate all parts of the world. Furthermore, the rise of authoritarian populism in recent years has the potential to lead to a retreat from the idea of universal human rights. Thusly, the main purpose of this article is to introduce a viable, effective, pluralistic and minimum universal understanding of human rights on which world public opinion can agree. Within this framework, the intellectual elements of radical universalism and radical relativism, which are the parties to the debate on the universality of human rights, have been subjected to a rigorous analysis. A philosophical discussion was held in order to put forward an understanding of human rights that is respectful of multiculturalism and does not leave individuals at the mercy of the countries and societies in which they live, and to overcome the dichotomy in question. Moreover, the possible obstacles to the implementation of human rights worldwide have been discussed and the limits and scope of the pluralistic minimum universalist understanding of human rights have been revealed.

Crimes against Animals
Authors: Darwish Colgin Ali Akbar
Published: October 2024

This study delves into the proportionality of the Iraqi legislator's treatment of crimes against animals, the potential legislative flaws in the Iraqi Penal Code, and the issue of enforcement of these provisions require a more in-depth analysis of the legal texts and their practical application. The present research employs a methodological approach to examine the crimes of killing animals and causing them harm, as addressed in the Iraqi Penal Code No. 111 of 1969. This involves analyzing the relevant legal provisions and evaluating the adequacy and proportionality of the legislator's treatment of such crimes.Findings showed that, in the Iraqi law, the animal is considered the victim of the crime, and it enjoys criminal protection to limit the crimes committed against it. Islamic law prohibits the killing or harming of an animal without justification, and considers that an assault on the animal's ownership. The Iraqi law imposes penalties on crimes committed against animals, whether intentional or negligent, and the penalties vary between imprisonment and fines. The study recommends the Iraqi legislator to amend the Penal Code to remove the requirement of animal ownership, expand the protection to unowned animals, and strengthen the punishments for intentional killing or harm to animals, in order to better safeguard animal wealth. Additionally, raising public awareness about the importance of animals for environmental balance through ethical education and awareness programs is crucial.

Published: October 2024

This study aims to conduct a comprehensive systematic review of the existing literature on capital budgeting practices (CBP) in Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs). By analyzing 130 academic publications from 1964 to 2024, we seek to identify key trends, gaps, and emerging themes in this field. Our analysis reveals a substantial body of research focusing on CBP in larger corporations but highlights a significant dearth of studies specifically examining SMEs, particularly in developing economies. Despite the value of existing research, the current review underscores the need for further exploration of CBP within SMEs. A critical area of inquiry is to understand how SMEs' CBP differs from those employed by large firms and the underlying reasons for these discrepancies. By revealing the unique challenges and opportunities faced by SMEs, this study contributes to the knowledge pertaining to the development of more effective financial management strategies tailored to their specific needs.

Study Employed Both The Legal Method And The Case Study Method. The Findings Indicate That Jordan Is Deeply Committed To Covenants Related To Refugee Rights, Particularly The International Covenant On Civil And Political Rights And The International Covenant On Economic, Social, And Cultural Rights. Jordan Has Ratified Most Of The Relevant Covenants And Agreements. Despite Not Being A Signatory To The 1951 Refugee Convention, Jordan Has Approached The Issue Of Syrian Refugees With A High Level Of Humanitarianism. The Jordanian Government Refers To Syrian Refugees As "Guests" Rather Than Refugees. The Study Recommends The Development Of A Clear And Specific National Strategy For Dealing With Refugees, Particularly If The Crisis Persists For Many Years. Additionally, It Emphasizes The Importance Of Considering The Unique Circumstances Of Asylum Seekers, Such As The Burden Of Proof And Their Psychological Condition.

Cet article fait état des obstacles visibles au développement de la République Démocratique du Congo (RDC) de 1885 à nos jours. Il en épingle trois à savoir : la colonisation, l’administration et le système éducatif. Il démontre que la colonisation a légué à la RDC une culture politique médiocre et une administration paternaliste, caractérisée par l’immobilisme, la corruption et le manque de maîtrise des effectifs avec des partis politiques formées sur des bases ethniques. Aussi, le système éducatif colonialiste s’’est avéré inadapté aux besoins du pays et aux objectifs du développement. Il propose, enfin, aux Congolais de cesser de crier, voyant toujours le mal en dehors d’eux. Ils doivent s’imposer un comportement rationnel, susceptible d’engendrer le développement de son pays. Mots-clés : obstacle, développement, colonisation, éducation, RDC.

En RD Congo, les entreprises du portefeuille de l’Etat sont, pour la majorité des cas, non performantes. Beaucoup de causes sont à la base de cette situation dont entre autres, la me-gestion, la monopolisation du secteur d’intervention des entreprises publiques. D’où, l’importance de transformer lesdites entreprises en sociétés commerciales dont l’objectif principal est de maximiser les profits. Dans cet article, qui traite le cas de la REGIDESO, il sera question d’analyser la structure financière de celle-ci en se référant à la règle de l’équilibre financier minimum. Mots-clés : gestion, entreprise publique, société commerciale, REGIDESO.

Published: October 2024

L’impôt sur le revenu locatif reste le seul moyen pouvant palier au développement des entités territoriales décentralisées. L’article 204 de la constitution de la République Démocratique du Congo reconnaît aux provinces et aux entités territoriales décentralisées, des compétences en matière d’impôt sur le revenu locatif. D’où, l’intérêt de cet article qui relève les difficultés dans le recouvrement de l’IRL et propose la mise en place d’autres mécanismes de sensibilisation à la souscription dudit impôt dans la commune de Kimbanseke pour le plus grand avantage de sa population. Mots-clés : impôt, impôt sur le revenu locatif, entité territoriale décentralisée, Kimbanseke.

Authors: Sanz Mínguez Carlos , Carrascal Arranz Juan Manuel
Published: October 2024

Con la segunda Edad del Hierro se expande el uso generalizado del hierro como materia prima para la elaboración, fundamentalmente, de armas y de diversos instrumentos utilitarios. De esta forma, el bronce queda relegado a la fabricación de objetos de adorno personal. El registro funerario de las necrópolis vacceas nos muestra un gran elenco de objetos de bronce asociados al vestido y al adorno personal: coleteros, pendientes, collares y gargantillas, fíbulas, pasadores, grapas, botones, broches de cinturón, pulseras, útiles de aseo personal, anillos...

Resumen de los trabajos de campo desarrollados durante la campaña veraniega de 2013. Se intervino en un área de 48 m² distribuidos en tres sectores, colindantes por el sur con los excavados en la campaña de 2009. Se exhumaron catorce nuevas tumbas, siete de ellas conservadas íntegramente gracias a que se encontraban selladas por lajas calizas o por la gran profundidad a la que se encontraban. Junto a ellas y en estrecha relación se hallaron veinte estelas funerarias. En total se documentaron 166 objetos en las sepulturas, de los cuales 37 son elementos metálicos y 127 cerámicos, con novedosos diseños algunos de ellos.

Autrigones

Published: October 2024

Expertos artesanos metalúrgicos, el pueblo autrigón destacó en la elaboración de armas y adornos, cuyos modelos alcanzaron un alto de grado de perfección técnica y estética, no sólo como creaciones autóctonas, sino también imitando modelos exteriores. La abundancia de mineral de hierro en su territorio y el desarrollo de los necesarios talleres de fundición facilitaron una gran variedad de tipos. Sus espadas de gavilanes curvos o tipo Miraveche se documentan hasta en el Duero Medio; en estas tierras de La Bureba nace el esquema del puñal más específico de la meseta y del Alto Ebro, conocido como de tipo Monte Bernorio; y otro tipo catalogado como de filos curvos o de Villanueva de Teba; por último, sus fíbulas y broches de cinturón, de bronce, muestran novedosos diseños.
