Thinking with the Spanish Empire: The Religious Orders and World Evangelization
Authors: Cañeque Alejandro
Published: September 2024

This article argues that in order to achieve a fuller and more accurate understanding of the history of the early modern Spanish world, we need to study the Spanish Empire as an integrated and coherent unit of analysis, instead of separating it into nation-state fragments or simply placing it in the background of our studies. It was an empire that, in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, was not only European and American but also African and Asian, especially during the period of the union of the Spanish and Portuguese Crowns between 1580 and 1640. An imperial mindset, great mobility, and a global perspective characterized the lives and mentalities of many inhabitants of the empire. This was especially evident in the case of the religious orders, which played a fundamental role in the history of the Spanish Empire. Many of their members, both male and female, thought and acted within a worldwide framework, not only because they saw the conversion of all the peoples of the world to Catholicism as their inescapable, pressing task, but also because they inhabited a polity whose mental horizons were equally global in scope.
Center and Periphery in the Early Modern Spanish Empire: An Art-Historical Perspective on Colonial Latin America
Authors: Córdova James M.
Published: September 2024

Art history’s center-periphery paradigm holds metropolitan centers as the originators of artistic models that the periphery copies. Accordingly, European artworks were the primary models for colonial Latin America’s artists who dutifully copied them. Scholarship that accounts for complex artistic negotiations characteristic of colonial societies complicates the long-held view of colonial Latin America as a replicative artistic periphery to Europe. It recognizes mutually constitutive relationships between different groups and artistic practices in the Spanish imperial order. This article highlights select examples of cross-cultural artistic interactions in colonial Mexico and argues that they often operated outside the European/Renaissance preoccupation with artistic originality/innovation as it is characterized in the artist biography genre of early modern Europe. Significantly, Christian global designs were the justification for Spanish power in the Americas, and colonial religious art has often been used to measure the success of that order. Accounting for the strategic copresence of European and Indigenous cosmologies and aesthetics in colonial visual culture is crucial to developing a more rounded and critical understanding of the Christian colonial order in Latin America. It also offers one alternative to the binary and largely unidirectional center-periphery model by highlighting the multidirectional flow of ideas, beliefs, and forms.
New Directions in Hispanic Jewish Studies: Early Modern Jewish and Conversa Women
Authors: Wartell Rebecca
Published: September 2024

Increasing recognition of the integral role that religious and ethnic “others”—Jews and Muslims—played in the development of Iberian culture has become more integrated into the study of Spanish Empire, with an eye toward the converso experience in the colonial world as well. A much less developed line of inquiry relates to the experiences of those at the margins of sixteenth-century society, especially Jewish and conversa women, who were navigating unprecedented circumstances as refugees and New Christians. The disintegration of early modern women’s personal, familial, and communal foundations often left them in the most vulnerable positions; widows, who were not protected by the confines of marriage, experienced poverty and Inquisitorial accusations more often than others. Both Jewish and Spanish legal records feature a disproportionate number of cases related to the status of widows in a tumultuous society; some of the most compelling sources are Inquisition records that document the accounts of judaizing widows on trial. These new directions at the intersection of Jewish and Hispanic studies start broader conversations about Spanish Empire that include marginalized voices and exclude notions of imperial homogeneity.
“These gipsy humanities”: G. P. R. James and the Fictionalization of Gypsies in the 1830s
Authors: Chandler David
Published: September 2024

Studies of the representations of Gypsies in nineteenth-century English literature generally skirt the 1820s and 1830s, even though arguments have been made that there was a significant shift in the image of the Gypsy at this time, from a romantically unknowable figure to a familiar part of the British landscape and, increasingly, an alter ego for the writer. This article fills the gap and tests the argument by examining Edward Bulwer-Lytton’s The Disowned (1828) and, at greater length, G. P. R. James’s The Gipsy (1835). Both writers use the plot devices available to them as romance novelists to create characters who mediate between Gypsies and non-Gypsies and function as spokesmen for Gypsy ways. It is these characters who idealize Gypsy life, yet their idealizations are ironized and psychologized in such a way that the objectivity of their views is in doubt. As characters, they powerfully anticipate the Victorian notion of the “Romany rye”—the non-Gypsy who lives with Gypsies for extended periods, adopting their lifestyle. Yet before that particular literary construction emerged, Bulwer-Lytton and James were putting pressure on the assumptions behind it, questioning the idea that Gypsy culture was open to meaningful appropriation and highlighting the near impossibility of truly mediating Gypsy experience to non-Gypsy readers.
CAN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ACCELERATE THE TRANSITION TO A CIRCULAR ECONOMY?
Authors:   Selçuk University, KAYA Perihan Hazel
Published: September 2024

The world’s current model of economic development is unsustainable. It promotes the inappropriate use of limited natural resources, encourages consumption and waste, causing serious damage to the environment and generating large amounts of waste. The circular economy, an economic model in which resources are recycled and reused as much as possible by following a circular path rather than a linear path during consumption, has been gaining popularity around the world in recent years. Artificial intelligence (AI), one of the most important developments of our time, can also play an important role in the realisation of the circular economy. AI can complement and extend the skills of humans. It helps people learn faster, deal with complexities more effectively, and better understand the abundance of data. AI can facilitate new circular business models within the circular economy and help design sustainable and robust products. The aim of this study is to seek answers to questions such as how artificial intelligence contributes to the transition to a circular economy and whether artificial intelligence can accelerate the transition to a circular economy. While seeking answers to these questions, we argue that artificial intelligence has significant potential in the transition to a circular economy and will play an important role in this transition.

Authors: Sangrà Albert , Geissler Gerhard , Skala Franz-Karl , Cabrera Nati
Published: September 2024

The following paper introduces the FLUENT model, a contemporary university course planning approach built on the findings from a research which used the results of a survey, interviews to university key informants and a literature review based on the PRISMA methodology. FLUENT is an acronym that stands for Flexible Universal Education Model for a New Hybrid. Faced with the complexity of teaching and uncertainty in planning, the model aims to comprehensively address course planning intricacies. Unlike traditional models, FLUENT adopts a fully online perspective, acknowledging the potential of online education. It incorporates evidence-backed elements from course design, as for example emphasizing deep understanding, accurate planning, or crucial structuring elements. The structuring elements encompass time, space, technology, students' agency, and teachers' reflectivity. Additionally, FLUENT integrates principles of reversibility, addressing unforeseen circumstances, and recognizes students in both face-to-face and online environments. The model promotes flexibility, personalization, interaction, and collaboration, aligning with the pillars of future learning. FLUENT stands out by offering reversible design, considering diverse needs of students, and being adaptable to diverse institutional infrastructures. The model emphasizes learning paths, competencies, and aligning objectives, providing a comprehensive framework for course planning.
Generative AI in the service of situational judgment tests (SJT) for self-regulation learning during problem solving (SRL-PS)
Authors: Avidov Dafna , Ezra Orit , Cohen Anat , Bronshtein Alla
Published: September 2024

Those involved in education see great importance in promoting self-regulated learning (SRL) and problem-solving (PS) among learners. Teachers are a major factor in promoting SRL-PS in the classroom, but very little is known about whether and how they promote it in their classroom, therefore a tool is needed to assess teachers in this domain. Furthermore, the situational judgment test (SJT) is a potential tool to diagnose teachers’ knowledge. However, such a tool is currently lacking in the SRL-PS domain. Human interaction with generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) enables overcoming difficulties and mutually complementing each other. The purpose of this paper is to present an initial attempt to develop an SJT tool for assessing teachers’ SRL-PS knowledge using the assistance of ChatGPT. This humane-machine interaction led to the formulation of 15 difficulties categories and 20 scenarios that form the basis of the SJT tool for SRL-PS. It was found that scenarios created by the researchers can be complemented by those generated by ChatGPT. In some instances, the scenarios from both sources are quite similar, while in others, those formulated by ChatGPT either expand upon or present an alternative perspective on the difficulty. Moreover, ChatGPT has proposed new scenarios in certain cases. A Significant product of the study is a map that enables the analysis of the pool of scenarios and the identification of over- or underrepresented difficulties categories.

It was concluded that there is no significant relationship between companies' stock returns and financial performance.
O "nexo crime-terror" na América do Sul e a securitização do Hezbollah na Colômbia: o Projeto Cassandra (2008-2016)
Authors: Maciel Tadeu Morato , Cheaito Karime Ahmad Borraschi
Published: September 2024

Essa comunicação objetiva analisar o processo de securitização do Hezbollah na América do Sul a partir do Projeto Cassandra, com foco no caso da Colômbia. O Projeto Cassandra (2008-2016) foi proposto pelo Drug Enforcement Administration, dos Estados Unidos da América, para investigar um suposto esquema de lavagem de dinheiro do narcotráfico latino-americano que envolveria o Hezbollah. Apesar de haver contradições e inconsistências nas acusações, os EUA tiveram êxito ao pressionarem países sul-americanos, como a Colômbia, a reconhecerem o Hezbollah como uma organização terrorista. Tem-se como hipótese que a construção da percepção dessa ameaça, desenvolvida inicialmente nos EUA e acatada pela Colômbia, fundamentou-se, no âmbito discursivo e legal, na construção de um nexo crime-terror, assegurando a confluência de interesses de uma classe dominante colombiana e dos governos estadunidenses na América do Sul. Foi possível constatar que esse suposto vínculo entre Hezbollah e narcoterrorismo atende a pautas domésticas, referentes à segurança pública colombiana, e agendas de segurança internacional no que concerne ao combate ao terrorismo, protagonizadas em especial pelos EUA. Tais políticas permitiram a remodelação de uma ordem em que o punitivismo e o terror são indispensáveis para o êxito dos discursos e ações governamentais em nome da segurança. Essa pesquisa, de caráter qualitativo e histórico-documental, utilizou fontes primárias e secundárias, e empregou, como método, a Análise Crítica de Discurso e como abordagem teórica os Estudos Críticos de Terrorismo.

The high-temperature stress and combination of high temperature and humidity during summer months in Punjab is an important factor for dairy cows as it directly affects the daily milk yield of dairy cows. The research was conducted on to effect of high-temperature stress on different parameters associated with daily milk yield. For this purpose, 5 freshly parturated Sahiwal breeds of dairy cows were to evaluate the effect of temperature humidity index on Daily milk yield at different temperature humidity index levels i.e. comfortable (≤ 70), mild stress (71–80), moderate stress (81–90), and stressful (≥90) zone. Blood samples were collected and centrifuged to get serum and ELISA was accomplished by using a spectrometer. Results revealed high significant (P < 0.001) increment in cortisol and triglycerides concentration and high significant reduction in serum progesterone (P < 0.001) and Luteinizing hormone (P < 0.001) concentration in cows during stressful environments. Daily milk yield has significant (P < 0.05) variation and a decreasing trend in cows from comfortable to stressful conditions. Progesterone and LH had a highly significant positive correlation with daily milk yield. Cortisol and triglycerides had a non-significant negative correlation with daily milk yield. It is concluded that heat stress has a negative impact on the daily milk yield as it disturbs the hormonal balance of the animal.

Modernization Narratives in Turkish Novel: A Spatial Perspective on Public and Private Spheres
Authors: Özcan Geylani Seçil , Özgenel Lale
Published: September 2024

The novel genre first appeared in Turkish literature in the nineteenth century, following the Westernization movements. Beginning with the “Tanzimat period (1860-1895)” and the subsequent periods of “National Literature (1911-1923)” and “Republican Literature (1923-1940)”, as identified by literary critics, novel became a medium where social and spatial issues and changes in everyday life were revealed. This study examines briefly the spatial changes that occurred in public and private spheres as a result of modernization endeavors during the late Ottoman and early Republican periods by looking at the literature and architecture of the period, and in reference to the three periods mentioned above. The periods of literary historiography mentioned above, correspond to the period under discussion and draw its chronological framework. It is argued in this context that, the interdisciplinary approach makes it possible to see overlapping and differentiating aspects in narratives and architectural practices regarding the perception and use of public and private spaces and corresponding daily life practices. The themes determined by the examination of novels representing the three periods of Turkish literature history are presented together with quotations from the sampled novels and brief architectural discussions, and the prominent aspects are discussed in both contexts.

Sustainable Supply Chain Management stands at the forefront of contemporary business strategies. Concurrently, the emergence of Disruptive Theory has reshaped conventional notions of supply chain dynamics, introducing innovative technologies and strategies that challenge traditional practices. This study investigates the impact of disruptive technologies on Supply Chain Management within emerging economies, with a specific emphasis on the South African context. The study addresses critical gaps in the field of technological readiness, which challenge the effective integration of disruptive technologies. Using bibliometric analysis, the study evaluated the contributions of academia, industry, and government to developing disruptive theory in supply chain management in South Africa. The study found a significant increase in research activity in 2022, with 71.6% of publications focusing on disruptive theory in supply chain management. The findings highlight the need for collaboration among academia, industry, and governmental bodies to advance disruptive theory in South African supply chain management and promote sustainability. Further, it provides a foundation for further exploration and development of strategies to overcome challenges and leverage opportunities in the rapidly evolving supply chain management landscape. Future researchers may explore a deductive research approach to understand how disruptive theory applies explicitly to the unique challenges and dynamics of the South African supply chain.
THE IMPACT OF DESIGN FOR THE ENVIRONMENT PRACTICES ON OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE: A CASE OF FOOD MANUFACTURING COMPANIES IN KENYA
Authors:   Refined Research Global, ACHOKI Mong’are Philip
Published: September 2024

As industrialization grows, the need to address climate change concerns also seems to grow. Manufacturers are now forced to pay more attention to their environmental responsibilities. Nevertheless, these companies also need to balance both operational and environmental performance. The debate on whether Design for Environment (DfE) practices contribute to operational performance is ongoing. This study sought to examine the extent to which food manufacturers in Kenya have adopted DfE practices and investigate the impact of DfE practices on the operational performance of these companies. The study employed a cross-sectional survey strategy. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire from a sample of 50 food manufacturing companies in Nairobi. Data analysis was done using frequency, percentages, means, and multiple regression. The findings show that DfE practices are not optimally adopted and implemented by food manufacturers in Kenya. Moreover, the findings show that, generally, DfE practices have a significant positive impact on operational performance, except for end-of-life management. The findings can help managers of operations, production, research, and design in the food manufacturing sector to make relevant environmentally friendly choices.

This research aims to determine the effect of institutional ownership on carbon emissions disclosure, with leverage, number of top executives, company age, company size, and profitability as control variables. The sample in the research was non-financial companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, but during the research, several companies were eliminated due to incomplete data from 2018-2022. After statistical analysis and modelling, this research found that institutional ownership influences carbon emissions disclosure. In addition, control variables that influence carbon emissions disclosure are the number of top executives, company age, and company size. So the results of this research are in line with the proposed hypothesis. Although this research is limited in the available sample size because not all companies disclose carbon emissions, its novelty lies in the fact that disclosing carbon emissions for all non-financial companies in Indonesia is still an interesting topic to research related to the issue of climate change and global warming.

Roughly, three out of ten toddlers in Indonesia are stunted. Stunted children are spread throughout some provinces in Indonesia, including East Java. In East Java Province, ten cities and regencies exhibit a higher stunting prevalence rate than the national average. This study aimed to determine the factors affecting stunting among families with children under five years old. The study is population-based using census data. The dependent variable is stunting. The independent variables are young maternal age (<20 years old), older maternal age (>35 years old), and frequent pregnancies (> 2 children). The data were collected from the National Population and Family Planning Board which included 6,373,612 families, with children under five years old, from 38 districts/cities around East Java, Indonesia. The data were analysed using univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analysis with multiple linear regression. The results showed a relationship between young maternal age (B=11.37; p <0.001; 95% CI= 7.35 to 15.40), old maternal age (B=1.02; p <0.001; 95% CI= 0.84 to 1.20), and frequent pregnancies (B=1.01; p=0.007; 95% CI= 0.30 to 1.73) and the incidence of stunting. Maternal factors significantly contributed to stunting. The research identified young maternal age, old maternal age, and frequent pregnancies as variables that predicted and contributed to stunting. Based on the findings, an intervention can be proposed to stakeholders to arrange stunting prevention programs related to maternal issues.

Office syndrome is a term used to describe musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) occurring in the workplace. The persistent problem of office syndrome means that constant efforts are required to find a solution. This study was a quasi-experimental investigation. The aim was to examine the impact of a smartphone application on reducing the pain associated with office syndrome in a group of participants. The purposive selection technique was employed to obtain a certain sample group from the staff of Sakon Nakhon Rajabhat University who spend 6–8 hours per day working on computers and experience pain in their muscles in eight areas, namely the neck, shoulders, back, wrists, waist, hips, legs, and calves. The sample size was 30. The data analysis requires the use of both descriptive and inferential statistics, specifically generalised estimating equations (GEE). The study found that the group of 30 staff at Sakon Nakhon Rajabhat University had an average overall pain score of 3.31 (SD = 0.40) at the baseline, which decreased to 2.17 (SD = 0.17) in week 4, and 1.47 (SD = 0.21) at week 8. The comparative analysis of the baseline, week 4, and week 8 revealed a significantly higher average pain level before smartphone application use (baseline) than after weeks 4–8, at the statistical significance level of 0.05. Therefore, the institution should promote the usage of the NotifyOfficeSyndrome application among staff who regularly use computer screens to improve their overall health and eliminate the discomfort associated with office syndrome.
Thermal Performance Enhancement of Solar Water Heaters Using Phase Change Materials in Flat Plate Collectors
Authors: Saputra Sidabutar Baginda , A. Abdullah Nasruddin , Abdul Rahman Nazaruddin , Amir Fazri
Published: September 2024

Solar water heaters are widely utilized for domestic hot water production, leveraging solar energy as a renewable and sustainable resource. However, the intermittent nature of solar radiation limits their efficiency, particularly during periods of low solar intensity or at night. This study investigates the thermal performance enhancement of solar water heaters through the integration of phase change materials (PCMs), specifically paraffin, within flat plate collectors. The paraffin PCM is placed within an additional pipe in the collector to store excess thermal energy during peak sunlight hours and release it when solar radiation is insufficient. Experimental tests were conducted to measure temperature fluctuations, heat storage capacity, and overall system efficiency with and without PCM integration. The results indicate that the addition of paraffin PCM significantly improves the system’s ability to retain heat, maintaining water temperatures above 50 °C for extended periods and increasing the overall efficiency of the solar water heater by 17.10%. This study demonstrates the potential of PCM-enhanced solar water heaters in optimizing energy use and improving thermal efficiency, making them more effective in regions with variable solar exposure.

The development of world globalization at this time has resulted in all countries having to be able to adapt to the changes that have occurred. One of the impacts of globalization is the growing development of international markets which has led to more open export and import activities between countries. Export activities are activities of selling goods abroad, while import activities are the opposite, namely activities of buying goods from abroad. The development of import and export can improve the country's economy if it is managed effectively. Commodities that are often exported and imported are the non-oil and gas sector. Non-oil and gas itself stands for non-oil and gas. Export and import activities in the non-oil and gas sector in each province tend to be different and fluctuate, one of which is in West Java Province. This analysis aims to determine the development of the non-oil and gas export-import sector in West Java Province.
