A maze of responsibility
Authors: Flaker Vito
Published: August 2024

This paper is an attempt to deconstruct, formally decode the notion of responsibility frequently appearing in the process of deinstitutionalisation and long-term care provision. It is a Kafkian predicative category of subordination. Its value is determined by its two objects. "For what" we are responsible constitutes the substance of responsibility, "to what" constitutes its form and sense. By examining the substance of responsibility—for acts, things and people, we have derived the basic parameters, conditions constitutive of responsibility: loss (negative consequences), alienation, reification, removal of will and ascribing. Investigating the form of responsibility, of that to which we are responsible, we have schematically divided instances of responsibility into hierarchic and horizontal, as well as into reflexive and transient. Intricacies of responsibility to authorities, public, community as well as to near ones and the self are explored in their action and contemplative properties. Deinstitutionalisation on the one hand restores civic responsibility to the service users, on the other it transmutes its very conditions. The imperative is to restore their will capacity, not to ascribe acts to stigma, allow reappropriation and humanisation and to put the emphasis on achievement and success. In the case of the key worker, we demonstrate a new pattern of professional responsibility, in which acts are actors' responsibility, while helpers are responsible for service delivery, their own acts and for teamwork that will uphold the user's emancipation. In the transition to community, subordinative responsibility is being transformed into everyday responsiveness and common responsibility for humanity.

Authors: Giry Taufiq Wijaya , Halking Halking
Published: August 2024

Indonesia is a democratic country. One of the indicators in measuring the level of democracy is political participation. The implementation of political participation in society is in the election of people's representatives. The election process is known as elections. Elections do not only exist in the community, but in the scope of the campus there is also what is known as Pemira. Pemira (General Election) is the biggest democratic party at Medan State University. Just like a country that has a leader as a representative of the people, students also have a high official who acts as a representative of students at both the university and faculty levels. Based on data that suggests that student political participation is low in Pemira 2023, namely 65% of students do not use their voting rights. The purpose of this research is to find out how political participation and what obstacles students experience in Pemira 2023.This type of research is  descriptive research with qualitative research methods. The informants in this study were students in the Civics department, the Pemira committee, and the Vice Dean 3 of FIS. The data used in this research are primary data and secondary data. Data collection techniques using interview techniques, with data collection instruments in the form of interview list sheets, books, journals, diaries, cameras, recording devices and so on. Data analysis used qualitative data analysis through 3 stages, including data reduction, data presentation, and verification/conclusion. The results showed that in Pemira 2023 the level of student political participation was low due to low student curiosity in Pemira and low student interest in becoming contestants in Pemira due to other tasks and student distrust of the organizations offered. The obstacles experienced by students in the 2023 Pemira were related to the low role of the committee in socializing information related to system improvements in the application used for elections, which caused many students to be unable to enter the Pemira application and did not exercise their voting rights.
Stock Market Resilience: Evaluating Islamic and Conventional Indices through COVID-19 Waves
Authors: Khursheed Zamrud , Rehman Moghis , Ahmad Moeez , Ali Ahmad
Published: August 2024

The study examined the impact of the five COVID-19 waves on Pakistan's conventional (KSE-100) and Islamic (KMI-30) stock indices from March 3, 2020, to August 30, 2022. The DCC GARCH (1, 1) model found weak, predominantly negative connections between COVID-19 cases each day and stock returns. Visual data indicated a slight decrease in both indices as cases increased, reflecting previous findings on pandemics' adverse effects on stock markets. A thorough examination of the linkages between COVID-19 cases and financial indicators using Wavelet Coherence analysis highlighted intricate connections that are important to policymakers and financiers. Pakistan's KSE100 and KMI-30 indices showed a constant significant positive dynamic conditional association that persisted throughout the investigation. This challenges the perception that the Islamic index serves as a safe haven during financial crises. According to the research, Islamic stock markets, as reflected by the KMI-30, were not as protective or as good at hedging during crises like the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, they were more susceptible to economic downturns. When navigating the effects of global health crises on financial markets, investors and policymakers must have a thorough understanding of these dynamics.

Authors: Kurniawan Chalid , Kartasasmita Arief S. , Harley Ohisa
Published: August 2024

Lens drop and intraocular lens (IOL) drop can occur after cataract or phacoemulsification surgery, where the IOL is dislocated from the capsular bag into the vitreous cavity. The aim of this study was to investigate the short-term outcomes of implanting a retropupillary iris claw in patients with IOL drop and lens drop after phacoemulsification. A cross-sectional study was conducted at Santosa Hospital, Bandung, West Java, Indonesia, from January 2020 to December 2023. Patients were divided into two groups: IOL drop and lens drop groups. Total sampling was used, involving 51 patients in the present study, with 27 patients in the IOL drop group and 24 patients in the lens drop group. Data collected included age, sex, eye laterality, the onset of IOL drop or lens drop, intraocular pressure (IOP), uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), record of astigmatism change preoperative and postoperative, and postoperative pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) complications. Our data indicated that the UDVA significantly improved in both IOL drop and lens drop groups after PPV surgery (p<0.001). However, there were no significant changes in IOP or astigmatism following the surgery in either group. Over one month, both groups showed improved UDVA, decreased IOP, and changes in astigmatism, with no significant differences between groups. Similarly, there was no significant difference in CDVA between IOL drop and lens drop groups. Only four complications were recorded in the present study. Comparing IOL drop and lens drop groups, only an increase in IOP showed a significant difference (p=0.018). Corneal edema, IOL decentration, and pupil ovalization were not significantly different. In conclusion, retropupillary iris-claw IOL implantation is safe and effective for aphakic patients with complications from phacoemulsification, regardless of whether it is lens drop or IOL drop.
Association between triglyceride-glucose index and hypertension: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Lukito Antonia A. , Kamarullah William , Huang Ian , Pranata Raymond
Published: August 2024

The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a simple and reliable indicator of insulin resistance, which is an important contributor to the development of hypertension. The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine the dose-response association between the TyG index and the incidence of hypertension. An extensive search was conducted through several databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, ScienceDirect, and Scopus until June 1, 2024. The TyG index was used as the exposure, and the incidence of hypertension was measured throughout the TyG index intervals. The effect estimates were presented as odds ratios (OR) in both the unadjusted and adjusted models. Adjusted OR were carried out from all included studies to eliminate the possibility of confounding factors being involved in the incidence of hypertension. A total of 108.936 participants (mean age: 48.2 years old, male sex: 47%, mean body mass index: 23.9 kg/m2) from 14 observational studies were included. The TyG index in the most eminent category was related to a higher risk of hypertension in both unadjusted (OR: 2.59, 95%CI: 2.03–3.31, p<0.001; I2: 97.1%, p<0.001) and adjusted model (OR: 1.74, 95%CI: 1.39–2.19, p<0.001; I2: 92.2%, p<0.001). Dose-response meta-analysis for the adjusted OR showed that the linear association analysis was not significant per 0.1 increase in the TyG index. The dose-response curve became increasingly steeper at the TyG index above 8.5. In conclusion, the TyG index was shown to be strongly linked with hypertension in a non-linear dose-response manner.

POLITICIDADES ESTÉTICAS: O CINEMA DISTÓPICO NO BRASIL DA ASCENSÃO EVANGÉLICA
Authors: Barba Marcela , Vaz Aline , Fischer Sandra
Published: August 2024

Assuming the cinema as a field of symptoms, this study aims to investigate and analyze how the intersection between 'politics' and 'religion' is presented through a dystopian aesthetic adopted in the following Brazilian films: Branco Sai, Preto Fica, directed by Adirley Queirós, released in 2015 after Dilma Rousseff's troubled presidential re-election in 2014; and Divino Amor, released by Gabriel Mascaro in 2019, the year in which Jair Bolsonaro assumed the presidency of the country. Thus, starting from the premises of French semiotics, it is observed how the reffered aesthetic strategies in the films establish communicational links that provide the audience the opportunity to recognize a specific Brazil on the cinema screen.

Initially, we address the conditions to which the workers were subjected. enslaved workers caught during inspections, highlighting the exhausting working hours, debt mechanisms and the precariousness of accommodation and food provided by companies. Next, we demonstrate the attitudes of scouts and managers of rural properties committed to compromising inspections, as well as the articulations established between different institutions to make operations viable and overcome recurring difficulties in the historical context, characterized by the lack of effective policies to combat the problem. Regarding these questions, we sought support in the research of Ricardo Rezende Figueira (2004), Ângela de Castro Gomes and Regina Beatriz Guimarães Neto (2018). Furthermore, we made use of a variety of empirical materials, such as: newspaper sources, mainly the newspapers Diário do Povo and O Estado, inspection reports and publications from the International Labor Organization (ILO).

Authors: Willie Michael , Kabane Sipho
Published: August 2024

Cervical cancer poses a considerable public health challenge in South Africa, necessitating effective screening programs for early detection and prevention. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted healthcare services, including cervical cancer screening, posing challenges to disease management efforts. This study aimed to assess cervical cancer incidence and screening practices among beneficiaries within three major South African medical schemes, analysing trends from 2017 to 2022. Retrospective data were collected to evaluate incidence rates and screening coverage, considering the impact of the pandemic. Screening coverage declined during the epidemic, recovering in 2021 but declining again in 2022. Different health plans showed a more than forty per cent fall in cervical cancer screening rates between 2021 and 2022, with 2022 having the lowest level, even lower than the COVID-19 era. The trends indicate COVID-19 interruptions have a negative impact post-COVID-19. Recommendations include targeted outreach, telemedicine options, and strengthened collaboration to enhance screening programs and mitigate pandemic-related disruptions. This study contributes valuable insights into cervical cancer management, highlighting the need for proactive measures to ensure the continuity of essential healthcare interventions amid public health emergencies.
The Impact of The Application of The Death Penalty on Reducing Crime Rates: Legal and Criminological Perspectives
Authors: Wahyudi Iwan
Published: August 2024

The application of the death penalty as a punishment for severe crimes has long been a controversial topic in legal and criminological discourse. This article explores the impact of the death penalty's application on reducing crime rates from two main perspectives: law and criminology. This study uses a qualitative approach with in-depth literature analysis of death penalty policies in various countries, as well as empirical data on crime trends before and after the implementation of the death penalty. From a legal perspective, this article examines how the death penalty is justified as the most extreme tool of law enforcement and how it is integrated within the existing legal framework in several jurisdictions. From a criminological point of view, this article examines theories and research that evaluate the effectiveness of the death penalty as a determinant against crime. The analysis includes a study of the psychological effects of the death penalty on potential offenders, as well as a statistical evaluation of the correlation between the death penalty and a decrease in crime rates. The results of the analysis show that although there is some evidence to support the effectiveness of the death penalty as a crime deterrent, this evidence is often inconclusive and influenced by many contextual factors. In addition, we found that the application of the death penalty usually carries significant ethical and social implications, which can limit its effectiveness and acceptance in society. This article concludes with a discussion of the policy implications of these findings. It provides recommendations for law enforcement and policymakers in balancing crime prevention goals with the principles of justice and human rights. We also call for the need for more holistic research to fully understand the impact of the death penalty on crime levels.

Infinite Speed, or the Metaphysical Basis for Deleuzian Epistemology
Authors: Aldieri Eric
Published: August 2024

In this article, the author take cues from Gilles Deleuze’s later works, specifically What Is Philosophy?, reading his and Félix Guattari’s concept of infinite speed through a Spinozist lens. The argument is twofold. First, the author demonstrates that the concept of infinite speed serves as an indispensable condition of possibility for Deleuzian epistemology as a whole. He does so by situating the function of infinite speed in Deleuze’s work alongside the function of eternity in Spinoza’s work, arguing that the former picks up where the latter leaves off—that is, by serving as an epistemological ground. Thus, second, the author argues that despite Deleuze’s critique of and departure from key aspects of Spinozist thought—namely, the category of eternity and desirability of substance metaphysics—the notion of infinite speed, alongside other terms, allows one to read Deleuzian philosophy as a continuation of, rather than a significant departure from, Spinozist thought. Thus, by demonstrating the precise role that infinite speed plays in Deleuze’s later work, the author both illuminates the metaphysical axiom that grounds Deleuzian epistemology and, via this illumination, shows how that epistemology is consistent with and adherent to specific Spinozist philosophical commitments.
Singularities and Genetic Structure in Deleuze’s Logic of Sense
Authors: Allen M. Curtis
Published: August 2024

This article presents formal correspondences between the ontological and logical structures of Deleuze’s theory of sense-events in the Logic of Sense as a “post-Cantorian orientation of thought” (Livingston 2012), grappling with an essential incompleteness or inconsistency at the heart of both Being and thought, one which Deleuze champions positively under the equation Ungrounding = Becoming. Through it, Deleuze’s sometimes slippery use of the concept of singularity (and its relation to the virtual) is elaborated, elucidating a post-Cantorian metaphysics of events, distinct from and preceding Badiou’s, that concretely defines the role of the singular in Deleuze’s early major works.
Sense and Circumstance: Michel Serres on the Transcendental
Authors: Adkins Brent
Published: August 2024

In Les Cinq Sens (1985) Michel Serres proposes an oblique but suggestive history of the transcendental in Western philosophy. Within this context he also proposes a transformation of the transcendental in order to think the difference between the conditions and the conditioned without resorting to a theological anchor point. In brief, Serres argues that the transcendental is nothing other than local circumstances that (sometimes) coalesce into contingent stabilities. This article will examine both Serres’s proposal for the transcendental as well as the history that leads to it in order to assess the value of Serres’s contribution to the longstanding problem of the transcendental in Western philosophy. The author will argue that in his analysis of the transcendental Serres make a unique and valuable contribution to philosophy.
Tran Duc Thao: The Foundations of Anti-Colonial Phenomenology
Authors: Blanes-Martinez Ernesto
Published: August 2024

This article argues that Tran Duc Thao’s anticolonial work constitutes one of the first mobilizations of phenomenology in a political context. It also argues that by transposing Husserl’s reflections on objective sense and on transcendental horizons to the pre-objective sphere of perception, as well as drawing on Husserl’s genetic analyses on the affective dimensions of modalization to articulate a form of homeworld/alienworld structure, Tran Duc Thao anticipates generative developments in phenomenology and foreshadows the movement of critical phenomenology. However, as this article also argues, he further anticipates potential limits to generative renewal and critique, brought about by the horizons of meaning and material conditions of community existence. But, this article concludes, those limits are not absolute; rather, they are conditioned by the very horizons that institute them and can only be overcome experientially. Thus, only an experience of failure, as Thao argues, can motivate the radical revision of the ultimate horizons that condition the meaning of our existence, and thereby enable its transformation.
Life Between Bios and Zoē: Barbaras and Cross-Cultural Philosophy
Authors: Johnson David W.
Published: August 2024

One of the most suggestive points of contact between the thought of the Japanese philosopher and psychiatrist Kimura Bin and the phenomenology of Renaud Barbaras is the parallel between the way the concepts of life as a movement (of becoming) and as an event (of individuation) function in Barbaras’s work, and the way that Kimura employs the terms bios (the individuated life of the organism) and zoē (life as the shared power in all living things). This conceptual frame enables both thinkers to give an account of life as an event that itself is caught up in the ongoing activity of the world. The article shows that bringing Kimura’s work together with Barbaras’s allows us to apprehend something that neither alone could fully grasp: the character of human life as an unfolding event that, as continuous with the life of the world, can be more fully effectuated as a movement of self-realization.
Mirages of Transition: Derrida and Malabou’s Search for a Heideggerian Sex
Authors: Fulton Nora
Published: August 2024

This article analyzes various attempts on the part of continental philosophers to locate a thinking of sex in the work of Martin Heidegger. Its analysis centers mainly on those attempts made by Jacques Derrida and Catherine Malabou, who read into Heidegger discourses of sexual difference and sex change, respectively. This article shows how such attempts—which challenge the conventional assumption of the absence of such figures in Heidegger’s writings, as well as Heidegger’s own insistence upon the irrelevance of sex as such to the study of fundamental ontology—are in fact concerned less with locating a Heideggerian view on sex and gender, and more with barring the ontological capacity for change from sex and gender as forms of identity, let alone modes of being in general.
Du Bois on Double Life: Du Boisian and Marxist Alienation
Authors: Drusda Alexander
Published: August 2024

This article challenges the reception of W. E. B. Du Bois’s The Souls of Black Folk as a text consigned to his “early liberal” period, distinct from a later period in which he incorporates Marxist analysis. This periodization of Du Bois’s corpus risks obscuring a longstanding focus in Du Bois’s work: the alienation of Black life. In Souls, alienation consists not only in the alienated double-consciousness Black Americans suffer, but also in a material “double life” that grounds this consciousness. Insofar as it attributes theoretical priority to the objective conditions of racial capitalism, Du Bois’s early account of alienation bears striking similarities to Marx’s theory of alienation. By appreciating Du Bois’s emphasis on objective, socioeconomic conditions, it becomes apparent that core, philosophical insights of Souls persist throughout Du Bois’s corpus and prefigure his later embrace of Marxism.
Structures and Subjects: Epistemic Injustice Between Foucault and Marx
Authors: Hull Gordon
Published: August 2024

Relatively little work brings together Foucault and epistemic injustice. This article works through Miranda Fricker’s attempt to position herself between Marx and Foucault. Foucault repeatedly emphasizes the importance of beginning with “structures” rather than “subjects.” Reading Foucault’s critique of Marxism shows that Fricker’s account comes very close to the standpoint theories it tries to avoid. Foucault’s emphasis on structures explains some of the gaps in Fricker’s account of hermeneutical injustice, especially the need to emphasize the embeddedness of epistemic practices in institutions, and their resulting irreducibly political nature. In both cases, this article offers contemporary examples taken from data and privacy regulations.

A acessibilidade e a disseminação mais rápida das informações têm remodelado a ideia de escopo centralizado, a qual, aliada à expansão da Internet, traz mudanças na maneira em que se gerenciam empresas e informações. Com esta configuração chega-se à decantada virtualização de processos, que é fortemente amparada pela tecnologia da informação e comunicação, ainda mais graças à propagação da computação em nuvem. A fim de averiguar quão real é este enfoque virtual, fez-se um levantamento com aprofundamento sobre a existência de processos virtuais de delivery junto a empresas do segmento de food service no setor gastronômico de Recife, a fim de compreender se há benefícios, e quais são, mas também identificar miragens. Sendo assim, recolheu-se que a virtualização de processos, em regra, acarreta modificações no fluxo processual da organização, de forma que se tornou possível edificar dois cenários gerenciais diametrais quanto ao uso do processo virtual em nuvem e compará-los. Logo, nas empresas estudadas, obteve-se que com a adoção do processo de delivery como um processo virtual em nuvem, houve um direcionamento à reconfiguração do modelo de gestão.

Com a finalidade de proporcionar obras de engenharia mais econômicas e com adequado desempenho, é essencial conhecer as propriedades mecânicas e hidráulicas assim como o perfil do subsolo. A velocidade de onda cisalhante (Vs) é um parâmetro geotécnico que vem sendo amplamente empregado em vários projetos (avaliação sísmica de edifícios, vibração de máquinas, projetos de estruturas de contenção e de fundações). A determinação de Vs pode ser feita por meio de ensaios de laboratório e de campo. Entretanto, estes ensaios não são uma prática corrente no Brasil. Deste modo, Vs vem sendo estimado a partir de correlações empíricas baseadas em ensaios de penetração, como o Ensaio de Piezocone (CPTu), na fase preliminar de projeto. Várias correlações empíricas para estimar Vs a partir do ensaio CPTu foram desenvolvidas e estão disponíveis na literatura, porém a maioria destas correlações foram estabelecidas com base na experiência com solos bem-comportados formados em zonas temperadas, que nem sempre podem ser empregados adequadamente para solos tropicais. Assim, este artigo tem como objetivo avaliar e discutir a aplicabilidade de algumas correlações para a estimativa de Vs a partir de dados de CPTu em solos tropicais arenosos.

A pandemia da COVID-19 teve um impacto global significativo devido ao elevado número de casos e mortes notificados. Apesar de vários medicamentos serem testados, poucos são eficazes e, devido à elevada taxa de mutação do SARS-CoV-2, os medicamentos disponíveis são limitados na sua utilização, daí a necessidade de obtenção de novas moléculas com atividade anti-SARS-CoV-2. Nesse sentido, utilizamos modelos in vitro para testar a atividade antiviral de dois compostos isolados: Quercitrina (Q) e Rutina (R) isolados das flores de Arrabidaea braquipoda. A análise de citotoxicidade demonstrou que as moléculas Q e R nas concentrações de 50 µM e 100 µM, respectivamente, não apresentaram citotoxicidade significativa quando testadas em células humanas de epitélio alveolar basal (A549) e células de neuroblastoma humano (SH-SY5Y). Ao avaliar a atividade antiviral em células VERO-E6, observou-se que os compostos isolados (Q e R) não reduziram a carga viral do SARS-CoV-2. Em conclusão, estudos adicionais são necessários para explorar o potencial efeito antiviral de novas moléculas contra o vírus SARS-CoV-2.
Ut omnia sint ordinatissima. Sul rapporto tra ordine e legge eterna in Agostino
Authors: Catapano Giovanni
Published: August 2024

L’articolo studia la funzione del riferimento all’ordine nelle due definizioni della legge eterna proposte da Agostino rispettivamente nel libro I del De libero arbitrio e nel libro XXII del Contra Faustum Manichaeum. La prima definizione pone come giusto il massimo grado di ordine in ogni cosa, mentre la seconda pone come obbligatoria la conservazione dell’ordine naturale e come vietata la sua perturbazione. Pur non essendo identiche, le due definizioni sono coerenti e concordano nell’attribuire alla nozione di ordine un ruolo regolativo in ambito giuridico e morale, che non cristallizza le norme particolari esistenti ma, al contrario, spinge ad adattarle alla variabilità delle situazioni effettive.
 
The article examines the function of the reference to order in the two definitions of the eternal law proposed by Augustine in Book I of De libero arbitrio and Book XXII of Contra Faustum Manichaeum. The first definition posits the highest degree of order in everything as just, while the second posits the preservation of the natural order as obligatory and its disruption as forbidden. Although not identical, the two definitions are consistent and agree in attributing to the concept of order a regulatory role in the legal and moral spheres, which does not crystallise the existing, particular norms but, on the contrary, urges their adaptation to the variability of actual situations.
Non contra sed supra: l’ordine delle leggi nel pensiero di Bonaventura da Bagnoregio
Authors: Rossini Marco
Published: August 2024

L’articolo si propone di formulare una prima ipotesi relativa ai rapporti fra i diversi tipi di legge presenti nel pensiero di Bonaventura da Bagnoregio; la ricostruzione avverrà a partire dal basso, prendendo le mosse dalla lex politica, per risalire, solo nelle conclusioni, alla lex aeterna, nella sua doppia funzione di fondamento e ordine. L’articolo non si propone alcun obiettivo di esaustività, si presenta piuttosto come il primo passo di un’indagine che ha bisogno di altri e ben più significativi livelli di approfondimento.
 
The article aims to formulate a first hypothesis relating to the relationships between the different types of law present in the thought of Bonaventura da Bagnoregio; the reconstruction will take place starting from the bottom, starting from the lex politica, to go back, only in the conclusions, to the lex aeterna, in its double function of foundation and order. The article does not aim to be exhaustive, rather it presents itself as the first step of an investigation that requires other and much more significant levels of in-depth analysis.
