BASHKIR NATIONAL TRADITIONS IN THE VISUAL ARTS
Authors:   National Museum of the Republic of Bashkortostan, Nigmatullina Zilya Fasimovna
Published: November 2024

The article emphasizes the relevance of visual sources in the study of the Bashkir people ethnography using the example of the artists’ works who relied on national traditions in their work. Paintings and drawings demonstrate the life and everyday life of people, their appearance and the surrounding reality. For example, the artist V. S. Syromyatnikov carefully depicted on canvas the location of objects in the traditional interior of a Bashkir house (for example, bunks, chests, rugs, towels, etc.), on the street (buildings, utensils) and their colors. Also, the works of Vasiliy Stepanovich confirm that in the 20s – 30s of the XX century folk clothing was preserved not only as a memorable thing, but was also worn by rural residents (during holidays). V. S. Syromyatnikov enriched the cultural heritage of the region with unique paintings representing the life and everyday life of the Bashkirs of the first half of the XX century. The artist's merits are largely connected with his collecting activities, attention to detail and the transmission of traditions through fine art. His works, stored in the museum funds of Bashkortostan, help to preserve and pass on to descendants the cultural heritage and wealth of the Bashkir people’s ethnic culture.

The article describes and analyzes the spring-summer rite “Seren” in Asavbashevo village of Aurgazinsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan, positioning itself as a rite of expulsion of evil spirits and diseases. The peculiarity of this microlocal group of the Chuvashs is that until now they have not only preserved in their memory the oldest ritual of the traditional Chuvash religion, but also actively observe it. The study is carried out on the basis of field materials of the author collected in 2022–2024. In addition, the work includes literary, archival sources, as well as materials from the dictionary of the Chuvash language by N. I. Ashmarin. The study is conducted using the principles of historicism, objectivity, consistency, concreteness, as well as special methods of field ethnography – direct observation and interviews. It has been revealed that, despite some changes and innovations, many elements of the old rite have been preserved in the modern version of the ritual. This is reflected in the general sequence (scenario) of the rite, the attributes of its participants, folklore texts. It was revealed that the stability of the rite is due to the attitude of the population towards it as a significant element of the ritual culture, guaranteeing the well-being of a person, family and society as a whole.

Climate Change and Human Psychology: A Comprehensive Analysis of Thoughts and Emotions
Authors: Brika Said , Abderzag Fouzi Tahar , Ghandri Mohamed , Lamari Iman Ahmed
Published: November 2024

The paper aims to find out how changes in climate change affect how people think and feel. This paper analyzes 1456 papers published in WOS data from 1964 to 2022 that assessed the impact of climate change on knowledge, attitudes, behaviour, and policy preferences. We used a comprehensive search technique to identify and analyze the articles. VOSviewer, Bibliometrics, and Biblioshiny from R were used in the bibliometric study to reveal new research trends in climate change. The results show five sub-fields of research in this area (climate change, global warming, uncertainty and policy, human activities, land usage, and risk assessment). Other topics comprise the study of trends in this discipline, such as systems, design, snow, river basins, and change impacts. Our analysis indicates several gaps and problems in the climate change literature. There is, for example, a scarcity of studies on climate justice and the social and political components of climate change. Additionally, many studies focus on wealthy countries, leaving out the effects of climate change on vulnerable populations in developing countries. We find that the research areas for climate change trends in those publications give a complete perspective of the climate change research landscape, which may be used to drive future research agendas and policy decisions, etc. Lastly, we suggest different directions that climate change research could go in the future. These include more collaborations between different fields, a stronger focus on the social and political aspects of climate change, and a stronger focus on how climate change affects vulnerable groups.

Authors: Aboukhousa Heba , AlKamali Waheeb , Eljattari Belkacem
Published: November 2024

Addressing environmental challenges and taking meaningful action on climate change is becoming more critical every day. This paper explores how embracing cultural diversity can lead to better solutions for these pressing issues. When people from different backgrounds share ideas and work together globally, new ways to support both climate action and sustainability can emerge.
The paper starts by looking at basic ideas about sustainability and explains why we need to act on climate change now. It also explores how collaboration between different cultures can help solve environmental issues. Examples such as the Paris Agreement, the Great Green Wall, and the integration of indigenous knowledge demonstrate how diversity enhances global sustainability initiatives. Promoting awareness and providing education are essential to motivating broader participation in sustainability efforts. The paper also addresses challenges like political conflicts, economic interests, and different beliefs. By focusing on inclusion and cooperation, it suggests we can overcome these barriers. The main message is clear: diversity makes climate action stronger, and by working together, we can build a healthier, more sustainable world for everyone.
The Impact of Conceptual and Iʿrab Analysis of Verses 5-7 of Surah Al-Mu’minun on Traditional and Modern Tafsir Interpretations
Authors: Demirdöven Doç. Dr. Necla Yasdıman
Published: November 2024

In the traditional literature that is still in use, despite the verses encouraging the end of slavery, slavery has generally been seen as a permanent phenomenon, not a temporary one. These traditional views have continued to be effective in some modern periods and have resurfaced in wars in some parts of the world. This situation shows that some groups still use old books of jurisprudence as a reference to continue concubinage. Considering that the phenomenon of war can always occur, there is a danger of returning to old customs regarding female captives. Whether the dictionary and iʿrab analysis of the verses will allow this fatwa or not is one of the most important contributions to this field. The research has revealed that there is a significant difference between the classical and modern interpretations of the verses in question. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the interpretations of classical and modern commentators through conceptual and iʿrab analysis of verses 5, 6 and 7 of Surah Al-Mu’minun. In particular, it focuses on the meaning of the phrase “mâ meleket eymânuhum” and reveals how traditional and contemporary interpretations of tafsir affect the meaning of the verses.Method: The research was conducted using conceptual analysis and linguistic analysis methods. First, the verses were conceptually analyzed and then analyzed within the framework of iʿrab, or Arabic grammar rules. Then, the interpretations of the commentators were examined to show the stages that our tafsir heritage has gone through in chronological order until today, and these interpretations were compared with the findings of the research.Main Findings: The study determined that there are serious differences in the meaning and scope of the phrase “mâ meleket eymânuhum”. The questions of whether the term "farc" in the verse refers to sexual intercourse or the protection of privacy, and whether the verse is addressed only to men or to both sexes, have been investigated. The research has also revealed significant differences between the classical and modern interpretations of verses 5-7 of Surah Al-Mu'minun. Innovation: This study has re-evaluated the concepts in the verses by focusing more on their literal meanings and the place of their iʿrab in the sentence. It has brought a new perspective to the field by analyzing the extent to which the Turkish translations are compatible with the research findings and interpretations.

Authors: Sry Rizki  , Nurromsyah Nasution
Published: November 2024

Nurses' compliance in carrying out hand hygiene is very important because infection and disease transmission can be caused by health workers who are not compliant in carrying out hand hygiene every time they carry out health service actions. Health workers' compliance in carrying out hand hygiene both before and after carrying out procedures for providing health services can be a problem that must be considered due to various factors that are closely related to compliance in carrying it out. This research was conducted to analyze factors related to health workers' compliance in implementing hand hygiene at the Peulumat Health Center, South Aceh. The design used is descriptive correlation with a cross sectional approach. The total sample was 80 health workers. Data was obtained by interview using a questionnaire. There is an influence on attitudes with results (p 0.003) and length of service (p 0.002) the availability of hand hygiene facilities (p 0.000) which influences the compliance of health workers in implementing hand hygiene at the Peulumat Health Center in South Aceh. Based on statistical tests, it was found that factors that can influence the health of workers in carrying out hand hygiene consist of attitude, length of service, availability of facilities for carrying out hand hygiene. The implication for recommended services is that supervision and motivation of health workers need to be increased to carry out hand hygiene in accordance with recommendations. The research implication is that it is hoped that there will be research with a larger sample size, involving other people as researchers and using video.
From good fortune to unique finds: How luck shapes consumer desire for unique products
Authors: Carroll Ryall , Cadet Fabienne , Kachersky Luke
Published: November 2024

This paper analyses the effect of lucky events on the desire for unique products. Lucky events, characterised by chance, can elicit positive sentiments and feelings of uniqueness compared to others, which, in turn, may create a preference for more unique products. Three online experiments were conducted with varying manipulations of luck and behavioural intention targets. Mediation models and the moderated mediation model were tested using Hayes’ (2013) bootstrap procedure. As predicted, the findings reveal a step by step process in which a lucky event triggers a desire for uniqueness, enhances perceptions of the uniqueness of an offering and yields more favourable purchase intentions. The process was robust to different sources of luck and different unique purchase targets. The research on which this paper is based complements existing studies on the antecedents of lucky events. Although prior research has mostly focused on what causes people to feel lucky, this paper adds to the nascent body of research on the consequences of feeling lucky, particularly in a consumer context. The studies conducted yield a number of managerial implications.
Navigating the dairy aisle: Consumers’ unique shopping journey buying local dairy products, and the implications for a tailored brand marketing strategies
Authors: Lim Heejin , Childs Michelle L. , Sifford Kaitlyn
Published: November 2024

This paper delves into the application of customer journey mapping as a strategic tool for developing brand strategies for local food producers. Focusing on one product category, dairy value-added products, provides an opportunity to examine the dynamic and individual nature of customer experiences. By identifying both physical and online touchpoints, journey mapping enables an in-depth assessment of the multifaceted dimensions of the customer journey. The findings demonstrate distinct shopping patterns among three consumer cases: (a) a stalwart locavore, (b) a pragmatic locavore and (c) a budget-conscious local supporter. Within each customer journey, various key touchpoints come into play across the pre-purchase, purchase and post-purchase stages. Furthermore, cognitive, emotional, social, sensorial and behavioural responses are noted to varying extents. The findings suggest that customer journey mapping can offer vital insights for segmenting profitable consumers and tailoring brand marketing strategies to cater to different customer groups. This emphasises its potential role as an effective tool in developing robust brand strategies.

O ARTIGO 42 DA LEI COMPLEMENTAR Nº 101/2000NO CONTEXTO DA LEI DE RESPONSABILIDADE FISCAL.
Authors: Teddo Luiz Flávio Porfírio
Published: November 2024

This article demonstrates the need to observe fiscal balance, which is not limited to art. 42 of Complementary Law nº. 101/2000, the Fiscal Responsibility Law (LRF), but reaches the entire elective mandate. It demonstrates that Complementary Law Project (PLP) nº 18/1999 was intended to require fiscal balance in each financial year, but was amended and subsequently vetoed by the Executive Branch (art. 41). The veto was maintained and thus the basic principles of planning, balance, limits and transparency were preserved in other devices. The position of the Court of Auditors of the state of Minas Gerais (TCE-MG) and the National Treasury Secretariat (STN) are clear in the sense that the interpretation of the balance of public accounts and debt control are not limited to art. 42 of the LRF. This interpretation is contained in the STN ordinances, which have the prerogative to establish Public Accounting standards for all entities of the federation. Such standards, as well as the understandings of the TCE-MG are convergent in the sense that cash availability must be interpreted as gross cash, deducted from all commitments to be paid, whether from the reference year or from previous years and regardless of time frame.
A REALIZAÇÃO DE DESPESAS NO PODER LEGISLATIVO MUNICIPAL E A RELATIVA CARACTERIZAÇÃO DO INTERESSE PÚBLICO.
Authors: Teddo Luiz Flávio Porfírio
Published: November 2024

This article's main objective is to seek understanding about what types of expenses can be carried out by the Municipal Legislature under the auspices of public interest, using, as a case study, the expenses incurred with parties and get-togethers between councilors and/or employees of the Municipal Chambers. To this end, some public control bodies, scholars and experts were consulted. Starting from the premise that the defense of the public interest is linked to decisions that benefit the largest possible number of people, it could not cover a restricted group, as the situation would not serve the public interest, especially when the expenditure benefits only public agents and political agents. The concept of public interest is controversial. It was not possible to find a safe thesis of what is or is not spending that serves the public interest. Therefore, whether it is included or not will always depend on each case, based on the public authority that has the prerogative to interpret the laws. In the case of Minas Gerais Court of Auditors, it is common ground that expenses for parties, get-togethers and buffets for councilors and/or civil servants do not fall within the Public Interest Principle and are therefore prohibited.

Johann Conrad Ulmers theologisches Vermächtnis
Authors: Bryner Erich
Published: November 2024

Johann Conrad Ulmer (1519–1600), a native of Schaffhausen, received his theological education in Basel, Strasbourg and Wittenberg. From 1543 to 1566 he worked as a preacher and reformer in Lohr am Main (Franconia), from 1566 to 1600 in Schaffhausen, first at the abbey church of All Saints, then in the church of St. John, and also as dean of the Schaffhausen parish. He was a highly respected and successful preacher, catechist, pastor, theological writer and church politician. His influence was so great that he is considered the second reformer and architect of the Reformed Church in Schaffhausen.He himself described his Five Sermons on the Holy Sacraments (1598) as his theological legacy. In them, he dealt with the sacraments in general, the Lord’s Supper in particular, the benefits, use and fruits of the Lord’s Supper, the misguided developments in the theology of the Lord’s Supper in the course of church history and their refutation by the Reformed theology of his time. He himself relied on the Bible, the Confessio Helvetica Posterior and other Reformed confessional writings. He polemicized sharply against the Roman Catholic and Lutheran churches, as laid down in the Council of Trent and the Formula Concordiae. Ulmer was strongly influenced by the confessional age that began in Schaffhausen around 1550.
Creating a Culture of Mastery
Authors: Westover Jonathan
Published: November 2024

In today’s competitive business environment, developing an organizational culture oriented towards continuous learning and self-improvement, or a “Culture of Mastery,” is essential for sustained growth and success. This article outlines a research-based framework for how leaders can build such a culture. Key components include clarity of vision, commitment to learning, encouragement of risk-taking, and celebration of achievements. A clearly articulated vision that emphasizes continual growth and refinement is crucial for aligning employees and motivating higher performance standards. Leaders must relentlessly communicate the vision through various channels. A commitment to learning involves deliberate practice, growth mindsets, progressive challenges, and formal training opportunities. Encouraging prudent, fast-paced experimentation fosters innovation and breakthroughs by cultivating psychological safety. Calculated risk-taking should be modeled and failures treated as learning experiences. External and intrinsic recognition significantly boosts motivation. Strategies leaders can adopt are highlighting achievements, annual awards, promotions tied to new skills, and mastery milestone celebrations. Regular achievements must be acknowledged to retain urgency around goals. By shaping conditions where mastery and self-improvement are celebrated cultural norms through vision, support, empowerment, and praise, organizations can cultivate identities of continuous growth for sustained competitive advantage in today’s dynamic environment.

Управление на промените чрез приложение на концепцията „паралелно мислене“ – в търсене на нови решения в кризисни времена
Authors: Vasilev Valentin , Stoilkov Emil
Published: November 2024

From the perspective of shifting and globalizing conditions, the development of human resources in modern businesses goes through significant evolution. It is focused on innovative and realistically oriented actions with the primary objective of adaptation to the changing environment. The primary driving force behind the changes was the realization that improvements in organizational performance are positively associated with human factors, therefore with the practices of pay and hiring, selection, performance management, talent management, motivational policy, and other aspects of personnel management.Contrarily, the idea of "parallel thinking" is a relatively new method for interpreting and processing data and coming to wise judgments. This method avoids argument, in contrast to traditional discussions where participants first announce their preferred positions then attempt to defend their theses. Here, decisions are made using the cartographic technique, in which all viewpoints, alternative suggestions, criticisms, and emotional ideas are openly expressed and plotted on a shared plan. This method allows for the free expression of all opinions and viewpoints.

Is it conceivable that the conflict would set off a chain reaction in other parts of the world, leading to the collapse of the "American world" and the decline of the West, or will the Russian Federation's dilemmas intensify and make its destiny uncertain? Both possibilities hold potential for development, but only one is feasible. Russia's actions in Ukraine weaken basic principles of modern international relations, which would either be supported or a dangerous example that would disrupt the global security could be set. These issues are of extreme importance for Bulgaria.

The Bulgarian legislation, part of the practice of the ECHR and the Court of the EU for the processing of personal data in the sector of electronic communications and the relevant acts of the European Union, regarding the control of electronic communication for the protection of national security, have been studied. The first main problem is the need for an urgent update of our regulations, in accordance with the Decision in case C 350/21 of 17.11. 2022 for Bulgaria, with which the EU Court ruled that it does not allow national legislation that provides for the preventive general and non-selective retention of traffic data and location data, without ensuring that the individuals have been notified of this to the extent foreseen of Union law. The second problem is related to the limits and judicial control in determining national security, as a basis for control of electronic communication.
Binding Energy of Cylindrical Quantum Dots: Effects of External Electric Field and Impurity Position
Authors: Kirak Muharrem" , Yılmaz Sait
Published: November 2024

We have investigated the binding energy properties of a cylindrical quantum dot (CQD) system layered as GaAs/AlGaAs under external electric fields. In our numerical calculations, we considered both on- and off-center impurity cases using the effective mass approximation. The eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions of the system are obtained using a three-dimensional finite difference approach. It is found that the ground-state binding energy is significantly affected by the CQD dimensions (radius and height), impurity position, and the strength and direction of the external electric field. Additionally, the electron probability distributions are examined to provide deeper insight into the physical reasons underlying the behavior of the binding energy. These findings enhance our understanding of the tunable properties of CQDs, which may be useful in the design of optoelectronic and quantum devices.

Rosehip, renowned for its bioactive richness, including phenolic acids, flavonoids, carotenoids, and ascorbic acid, exhibits significant antioxidant and health-promoting potential. This study investigated the physicochemical, mineral, and phytochemical characteristics of rosehips sourced from the Çekerek region of Yozgat, Turkey, to evaluate their suitability as a functional food. The rosehips exhibited high dry matter content and low water activity, suggesting excellent stability for storage and processing. Furthermore, the rosehips contained substantial mineral content, including potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc, which enhances their nutritional value. Phytochemical analysis revealed a significant phenolic content, potent antioxidant activity, and exceptional vitamin C levels, positioning Çekerek rosehips as a superior natural antioxidant source. These findings underscore the influence of Çekerek's unique environmental conditions on rosehip composition and highlight their potential applications in the functional food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical sectors, addressing the increasing demand for natural antioxidants. This research contributes to the understanding of regional variations in Rosa canina and provides a basis for further investigation into the bioavailability, clinical applications, and development of value-added products from Çekerek rosehips.

Published: November 2024

In the age of professional sports, athletes, coaches, and technical staff pay more attention than ever to the science, medicine, and psychology behind athletic performance because even the slightest increase in performance is considered important. The research is a compilation study utilizing literature review and content analysis methods. Data included in the study has been obtained from qualified academic publications and studies identified through a literature review. These sources provide explanations on the subject and help resolve any uncertainties. In this regard, research published in the PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases was searched using the keywords 'chronotype and performance', 'chronotype and cognitive performance', and 'chrono-exercise'. The findings were examined and compiled in alignment with the study's objectives. In the studies examined it is observed that athletes with a morning chronotype exhibit their best performance in the middle of the day, athletes with an intermediate chronotype show their peak performance in the afternoon, and athletes with an evening chronotype perform best in the evening. It is also observed that there is some evidence suggesting that the contribution of aerobic and anaerobic energy systems to the organism increases more in the evening than in the morning. This implies that chronotype may influence both the distribution and speed of energy systems. However, there is no study that directly tests this relationship. New and high-quality studies in this field will enable us to reach more definitive conclusions on the subject.
Rebelión urbana en el México colonial y la Alemania imperial: el monarca ausente como árbitro
Authors: Braun Harald E.
Published: November 2024

Este artículo explora un aspecto específico de la dinámica de la violencia colectiva urbana en la edad moderna: el papel y la percepción del monarca ausente. La relativa falta de poder centrípeto —o vacío soberano (sovereign void)— era inherente a la monarquía medieval. La naturaleza aún personal de la realeza y el alcance a menudo totalmente limitado de la autoridad monárquica garantizaron que el vacío soberano siguiera siendo una constante de la gobernanza hasta bien entrado el periodo moderno. El monarca ausente era una manifestación común del vacío soberano que planteaba distintos retos y oportunidades a la autoridad monárquica que se enfrentaba a brotes de violencia popular. Sustantivaremos esta problemática a través de sendos estudios de caso: el Tumulto de Ciudad de México (1624) y el Levantamiento de Fettmilch (Frankfurt am Main, 1612-1616.
Descifrando la "gimnasia revolucionaria": la genealogía de la lucha armada anarcobolchevique de Juan García Oliver (1917-1936)
Authors: Ealham Chris
Published: November 2024

El objetivo principal de este trabajo es analizar la genealogía del insurreccionalismo anarcosindicalista desde la Revolución rusa y el origen del llamado anarcobolchevismo. Propongo una comprensión más precisa del insurreccionalismo que nos permita desmitificar la historia del anarcosindicalismo y del movimiento libertario, dado que hasta ahora los orígenes de la política armada anarcosindicalista se han estudiado poco y sin el suficiente rigor. En este proceso se hará evidente la importancia de Alfonso Miguel Martorell en la formación ideológica de Juan García Oliver, la figura más identificada con la vía insurreccionalista y, para muchos, el creador de la “gimnasia revolucionaria”.
Reliquias contra la revolución. Las catacumbas romanas en el imaginario español de mediados del siglo XIX
Authors: Ramón Solans Francisco Javier
Published: November 2024

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar el redescubrimiento de las catacumbas romanas por parte del catolicismo español. Para ello, en primer lugar, ofreceremos un balance del impacto que tuvo el redescubrimiento de las catacumbas, la difusión de reliquias y el desarrollo de la arqueología romana en el imaginario decimonónico sobre la Iglesia primitiva. A continuación, nos centraremos propiamente en la recepción española a través de la traducción de diversos trabajos europeos y de la publicación de la primera obra española dedicada específicamente a dicho asunto, Las Catacumbas o los mártires (1849) de José Muñoz Maldonado, conde de Fabraquer. Por último, veremos cómo se conectaron las catacumbas romanas con la interpretación en clave de persecución de la experiencia de Pío IX, la regente María Cristina y los católicos españoles. De esta forma, los primeros mártires cristianos aparecían como un modelo de lucha y entrega para los católicos españoles en el siglo XIX. Con ello, las revoluciones eran integradas dentro del sempiterno enfrentamiento entre el bien y el mal que había librado la Iglesia desde el tiempo de las catacumbas.
