Published: May 2019

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different doses of bovine biofertilizer on yield and post harvest of the strawberry crop in different growing environments. The experiment was carried out in two cycles of production, in Fortaleza, Ceará. The experimental design was in randomized blocks, arranged in subdivided plots, where the plots were of three cultivated environments (A1 = protected environment with screens, cold-water spraying, and white floor; A2 = environment with full sun, cold-water spraying, and white floor; A3 = environment with full sun, no cold-water spraying, and grey floor). The subplots consisted of five doses of biofertilizer (D1 = 0,0, D2 = 500, D3 = 750, D4 = 1000 and D5 = 1250 mL plant-1 week -1), with five replications. In the two-year period, the dose was higher in the protected environment of the weed type, with nebulization and on the white floor, at the dose of 500 mL week-1 plant-1 in the first cycle and 325 mL week-1 plant-1 in the second cycle. The dose of bovine biofertilizer of 1250 mL week-1 plant-1 promotes a longer duration and duration of the first cycle. During the second cycle, as the bovine biofertilizer doses of 585 and 620 provide higher and lower output than the protected environment. The environment without nebulization and on the floor without painting, the best soluble practices (Brix) in relation to the protected environment of the type screened and a full sun with nebulization.

ABSTRACT Dwarf coconut tree is the main variety for commercial use in Brazil, which ranks fourth in world coconut production. However, the genotypes used still have limitations and genetic variability is required. The aim of this study was to estimate the genetic variability in dwarf coconut accessions preserved at the Germplasm Bank of Brazil at different harvesting times and using agronomic descriptors of plant and fruits. The accessions Brazilian Green Dwarf-Jiqui, Cameroon Red Dwarf, Malayan Red Dwarf, Brazilian Red Dwarf-Gramame, Brazilian Yellow Dwarf-Gramame, and Malayan Yellow Dwarf were assessed by means of 30 descriptors Variance analysis was performed and the genetic diversity was quantified by using the Mahalanobis’ generalized distance and expressed by means of UPGMA clusters, Tocher optimization, and canonical variables. The maximum likelihood analysis was used to estimate the components of variance with the data of each plant in a sample of 11 descriptors of great importance for the genetic improvement of the coconut tree. A phenotypic divergence was found among the accessions using the UPGMA clusters, Tocher optimization and graphic dispersion obtained with canonical variables. The use of the maximum likelihood analysis confirms the existence of genetic variability in the accessions for the descriptors fruit polar and equatorial diameter, nut polar diameter, total fruit weight, and epicarp thickness, which presented a heritability varying from 0.17 to 0.39. There is a possibility of genetic gains with the selection of these traits for use of accessions in breeding programs.

Published: May 2019

ABSTRACT The presence of microorganisms, especially during storage, can lead to the rapid deterioration of macauba fruits (Acrocomia aculeata) and reduce the quality of extracted oil for biodiesel production. An alternative to ensure the quality of the oil is the use of ozone gas, a oxidizing agent that has high antimicrobial and sanitizing power. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of high concentrations of ozone gas on macaúba fruit and its effect on the quality of the oil throughout storage for the production of biodiesel. Ozonation was performed 20 days after harvest using fruits with and without the epicarp. Ozone was applied at a concentration of 18.0 mg L-1 and a flow of 1.5 L min-1 for 10 h. After ozonation, the fruits were stored for different periods, and the physical-chemical parameters of the oil were evaluated. The ozonation of fruits without the epicarp visually reduced microorganism attack. In general, the ozonation process of macauba fruits maintained the visual characteristics of the fruits and the physical-chemical characteristics of the oil for biodiesel production compared to untreated fruits. The average acidity values of the oil were lower in the treatments with the ozone gas. Removal of the epicarp tends to facilitate the ozonation process, potentially by improving gas penetration into the fruit.

Published: May 2019

ABSTRACT Soil is a dynamic and complex system that requires a considerable number of samples for analysis and research purposes. Using multivariate statistical methods, favorable conditions can be created by analyzing the samples, i.e., structural reduction and simplification of the data. The objective of this study was to use multivariate statistical analysis, including factorial analysis (FA) and hierarchical groupings, for the environmental characterization of soils in semiarid regions, considering anthropic (land use and occupation) and topographic aspects (altitude, moisture, granulometry, PR, and organic-matter content). As a case study, the São José Hydrographic Microbasin, which is located in the Cariri region of Ceará, was considered. An FA was performed using the principal component method, with normalized varimax rotation. In hierarchical grouping analysis, the “farthest neighbor” method was used as the hierarchical criterion for grouping, with the measure of dissimilarity given by the “square Euclidean distance.” The FA indicated that two factors explain 75.76% of the total data variance. In the analysis of hierarchical groupings, the samples were agglomerated in three groups with similar characteristics: one with samples collected in an area of the preserved forest and two with samples collected in areas with more anthropized soils. This indicates that the statistical tool used showed sensitivity to distinguish the most conserved soils and soils with different levels of anthropization.

Published: May 2019

ABSTRACT Evaluating spatial variability of hydraulic properties and salinity of soils is important for an adequate agricultural management of alluvial soils, and protection of riparian vegetation. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate the accuracy of geophysical techniques for indirect measurements of apparent electrical conductivity (ECa), using an electromagnetic induction equipment (EM38®), and soil physical hydraulic parameters and their spatial interrelations. The study was carried out at the Advanced Research Unit of the UFRPE, in the Brígida River Basin, in Panamirim, state of Pernambuco, Brazil, in the second half of 2016. This river had a 100 m wide riparian forest strip transversely to the river bank on both sides of the river. A regular 20×10 m grid with 80 points was used to evaluate the soil hydraulic conductivity and ECa. The geostatistics showed the spatial dependence and the dependence of the soil attributes, their spatialization, and precise mapping through indirect readings. Most of the variability (86%) in soil electrical conductivity was explained by indirect readings using the EM38®. Ranges of 80 m, 380 m, and 134 m were found for soil moisture, ECa, and hydraulic conductivity, respectively, presenting strong spatial dependence. The results showed the importance of riparian forests to the maintenance of soil moisture and porosity to the improvement of soil water infiltration capacity even under severe water deficit conditions and soil subsurface layers.

Published: May 2019

ABSTRACT Water availability and substrate type are essential factors in seed germination tests, influencing imbibition and seedling development. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of two substrates and different water volumes on the germination and vigor of chia seeds. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 2 x 6 factorial scheme, which consisted of two substrates, paper towel (Germitest®) and blotting paper, soaked with six water volumes equivalent to 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 times their dry weight, in four replicates of 50 seeds each. Germination percentage, mean time of germination, shoot length, radicle length, shoot dry matter, radicle dry matter, total dry matter (seedling), and root/shoot ratio were evaluated. Based on our results, germination tests for seeds of chia should be conducted using blotting paper (on paper) as substrate, with a water volume of 2.5 to 4.0 times its dry weight. Chia seedlings grown on blotting paper showed greater growth and dry matter accumulation compared to those grown on paper towel.

Published: May 2019

ABSTRACT The root protrusion test is a vigor test based on the principle that seeds with high vigor emit the primary root faster than less vigorous ones. Chia is a plant propagated by seeds and it is studied owing to its health benefits, but there is little technical information known about its culture. The objective of this work was to adapt the methodology of the root protrusion test to determine the vigor of chia seed lots. Five chia seed lots were submitted to an initial quality evaluation using germination and vigor tests (first germination, emergence, and emergence speed index). The root protrusion test was performed at temperatures of 20, 25 and 30 °C and evaluated every 2 h up to 42 h. During the test, protrusion stability was assessed and the criterion of 2 mm primary root count was used. The root protrusion test at 20 °C did not distinguish the lots in the same way as emergence. At 25 °C it was possible to classify lots after 30 h similarly to emergence. At 30 °C, root protrusion and the separation of seed lots was accelerated. Thus, the root protrusion test conducted for 30 h at 25 °C has sufficient sensitivity to detect differences in vigor between chia seed lots.

ABSTRACT Objective: To report the experience of the training in home parenteral nutrition (PN) directed to family members of children and adolescents participating in a multidisciplinary intestinal rehabilitation program of a tertiary public hospital. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study with family caregivers of patients from the Intestinal Rehabilitation Program of Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil, from July/2014 to January/2017. Inclusion criteria: family members of children aged 30 days to 17 years and estimated PN use ≥8 weeks; and family members motivated to care for the child. The training covered: hand washing and disinfection; infusion pump handling; and central venous catheter (CVC) and PN care. Outcomes assessed: catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) rate, accidental CVC exit, end of PN infusion with more than 60minutes of delay or advance compared to the time predicted, mechanical obstruction, bleeding in the CVC insertion site, and death. Results: Twenty-seven family members of 17 children were trained. Their median age was 28 (18-60) years, and 63% were mothers. The mean CRBSI rate was 1.7/1,000 days of CVC use, and 29.4% of patients had at least one episode of accidental CVC exit. There were no complications related to PN infusion, bleeding, or death. Conclusions: The training of family caregivers allowed the safe implementation of home PN, with the active participation of families, making the procedure feasible in the public health system in Brazil.
EFFECTIVENESS OF FIXED DOSES OF PROPRANOLOL IN THE TREATMENT OF HEMANGIOMAS REGARDLESS OF CHILD’S WEIGHT GAIN: A CASE REPORT
Authors: Anger Jaime , Oliveira Eduardo Mesquita de , Gabel José
Published: May 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: To present the outcomes of fixed doses of propranolol tablets for the treatment of hemangiomas. Case description: Two illustrative cases of hemangioma in infant patients younger than six months old are described. Treatments were started in 2010 and 2011 and were monitored until August 2017. Patients were treated with fixed doses, initially calculated based on the upper limit of 3 mg/kg/day and administrated in two daily doses rounded down to the nearest multiple of five milligrams. Dosage was not adjusted to patients’ weight gain. The tablets were crushed and then diluted in a maximum amount of 3 mL of water. This procedure was necessary because propranolol was not available in oral solution in 2009, when dosages available in the Brazilian market were 10, 40 and 80 mg. Both patients presented significative improvement in the first 60 days and were in complete remission by the end of the treatment. Comments: It is possible to treat patients with Propranolol 10 mg tablets, even though the dosage is not as precise as when calculated according to patients’ weight. The maintenance of a fixed dose, ignoring the patient’s progressive weight gains, helps avoiding the rebound effect and decreases complications.

Published: May 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the association of body mass index (BMI) and albumin with pulmonary function in cystic fibrosis (CF) pediatric subjects. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with clinically stable CF’s subjects. Clinical (pulmonary function) and nutritional evaluation (body mass index and albumin) were performed. Univariate analysis was performed using simple linear correlations. Regression analysis was performed using an exit level of p<0.05. Results: Seventy-eight CF’s subjects (mean age 12.8±3.8 years) with mean albumin 4.2±0.4 mg/dL, predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1%) 80.8±22.6 and BMI median percentile 51.2 (1.3-97.7). In the multiple regression models, albumin, age and BMI percentile were associated with pulmonary function. Subjects with lower than 25 BMI percentile had 12.2% lower FEV1%. An albumin increase of 0.1 mg was associated with 2.7% increase in predicted FEV1%, and one year increase in age was associated with reduction in 1.2% of predicted FEV1%. Conclusions: BMI percentile, albumin and age were independently associated with predicted FEV1% in a tertiary referral hospital.

A quantitative evaluation of the appearance quality of weld lines in RHCM parts
Authors: Li Jiquan , Li Taidong , Xu Fuyu , Jiang Shaofei
Published: May 2019

The appearance quality of plastic parts in weld lines can be improved significantly through the rapid heating cycle molding (RHCM) process. However, there is no evaluation method for measuring the appearance quality of weld lines to determine whether they are in a good or bad condition. In this study, RHCM parts were molded with electric heating and the total color difference dE of the Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage (CIE) Lab system was employed as the quantitative evaluation method for the appearance quality of weld line. The dE of weld lines under different heating temperature conditions was analyzed. The results indicate that the mold heating temperature significantly influences the appearance quality of weld lines and the CIE Lab system accurately assesses the appearance quality of weld lines. Moreover, the experimental results further demonstrate that the lightness difference ΔL has a significant influence on the dE of weld lines in plastic parts, whereas the color differences Δa and Δb have only a slight influence.
Electrospinning of poly(β-hydroxybutyrate) scaffolds: morphology and aging

Published: May 2019

Fibrous polymeric scaffolds that comprise capabilities of biomimicry to the native tissue architecture and achieve functional tissue-engineered products with minimal surgical implantation. This research focused on the production of fibrous scaffolds of biodegradable microbial poly(β-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) by electrospinning. Processing conditions were found to influence the morphology of the scaffolds, which, in turn, controlled the wettability and aging behavior, quite important for medical applications. Commercial and biosynthesized PHB from a mutant Azotobacter vinelandii OP strain were investigated. The morphology and wettability of the fibrous scaffolds were characterized using optical, atomic and scanning electron microscopy. Tuning the voltage and the solution concentration (at constant flow rate) produced either a filamentous morphology or aggregates of filaments. The wettability correlated with the degree of porosity, and predominantly a hydrophobic behavior was attained in an otherwise hydrophilic material. Aging, monitored at room temperature up to 11 months by degree of crystallinity, α, showed that scaffolds with filamentous morphology exhibited an increase in crystallinity, leading to brittleness. However, scaffolds with aggregated filaments were quite stable as the degree of crystallinity remained constant over the 11-month period. Applications are envisioned for PHB biomimetic scaffolds in cell growth and bone tissue regeneration.

Published: May 2019

Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the safety of the laparoscopic and open method for endometrial cancer staging.Methods: Between January 2015 and August 2017, we reviewed 121 women with endometrial cancer treated by open (n=81) or laparoscopic (n=40) approach, retrospectively. Two groups were compared in terms of operating times, intraoperative and postoperative complications, perioperative and postoperative features such as hemoglobin values, the lengths of hospital stay, and adjuvant therapy. All of the patients underwent a hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy; and when indicated, omentectomy and lymphadenectomy were performed.Results: There were no significant differences between the two groups with regard to the number of parities, body mass index, menopausal status, age, the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scores, the requirement of lymphadenectomy, and hospital stay. There were significant statistical differences between groups in terms of operation time and difference of hemoglobin (p<0.001, p=0.013; respectively). Laparoscopic surgery had a longer operative time than laparotomy, and difference of hemoglobin in the laparotomy group is more than the laparoscopy group. Patients who underwent staging with laparotomy had bowel injury (1.2%), wound infection (13.6%), and postop ileus (8.6%) while in the laparoscopy group patients had wound infection (2.5%) and postop ileus (5%). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of the intraoperative (p=1) and postoperative complications (p=0.101 for wound infection, p=0.716 for postop ileus). The groups were similar in terms of the histological grade, FIGO stage, histologic subtype, the rate of lymphovascular invasion, the depth of myometrial invasion, the total number of lymph nodes resected in lymph node dissections, the rate of lymph node metastasis, the location of the tumor, cervical stromal invasion, and the adjuvant therapy such as chemotherapy and brachytherapy. None of the patients in both groups had a recurrence and long-term lymphatic complication such as lymphocyst, lymphedema. Conclusion: Our current data demonstrated that the laparoscopic approach can be performed without loss of safety with similar complication rates in patients with endometrium cancer. Additionally, the laparoscopy was not inferior to the laparotomy in terms of efficacy.
To Be a Work Means to Set Up a World: Into the Woods with Heidegger
Authors: Heinrich Falk , Wolsing Thomas
Published: May 2019

This video article is one outcome of a collaborative project with artist Thomas Wolsing in the summer of 2016. The collaboration was video recorded (FPS, head mounted camera). The footage was thereafter edited into a video article that documents emerging dimensions and themes of this project. My ambition for this collaboration was to experience and discover interlacements between, on the one hand, art theory (epitomized by some sentences of Heidegger’s “The Origin of the Work of Art”) and, on the other hand, artistic and physical-constructional work in building a land art piece. The video article presents dialogues and monologues in situ that circles around the problem of how to bodily and conceptually integrate art theory and concrete artistic practice and the dependence between and incompatibilities of art theory and art making. It shows the experienced integration of physical and discursive actions that, in the moment of performance, is elusive and refutes any ethical assessment. The video is in Danish with English subtitles.

Published: May 2019

This study examined the influence of elementary school children’s perception of tourism impact on affect and attitudes toward tourists. The research was conducted under the assumption that there will be differences in the 107perception of tourism impacts as well as affect and attitudes of tourists depending on the frequency level of contact with tourists. It was found that the high contact frequency group had lower perception scores of positive tourism impact than the low contact frequency group. In contrast, the high contact frequency group showed higher perception scores of negative tourism impact. Similarly, the high contact frequency group had lower positive affect scores and higher negative affect scores toward tourists than the low contact frequency group. The attitude toward tourists also showed similar results which the high contact frequency group with visitors had lower attitude scores than the low contact frequency group. These results suggest that schools, community and tourists need to work together for preventing emotional hurts by tourists. Second, it is suggested that efforts should be made to minimize the damage to the real life of the local residents.
Discourse on the mode of Serendipity in Travel Narrarive: Focusing on the contingency of Kuki Shuzo
Authors:   The Tourism Sciences Society Of Korea, Kwon Jangwook , Lee Hoon
Published: May 2019

This study examined serendipity that provides admiration, happiness, and continuity of happiness in travel. To this end, we used the concept and system of the contingency presented by Kuki Shuzo, “What is the contingency?” Kuki shuzo categorized the contingency into largely categorical contingency, hypothetical contingency, and disjunctive contingency. Hypothetical contingency is classified as reasonal contingency, causal contingency, and objective contingency. The coincidence in everyday life starts from categorical contingency and a reasonal chance, and a causal contingency and a causal contingency are combined with a simultaneity and the instrumentality. In this process, we are characterized by giving a nobleness while contemplating ontological meaning. Also, causal contingency and objective contingency were combined with causal inevitability or objective inevitability, resulting in the admiration of fate. Travel becomes an unfamiliar environment, making us unpredictable, focusing on the present moment, and not knowing the cause or purpose of the situation that occurs, we feel a kind of inevitable sense of awe. Travel thus provides an optimal environment for serendipity. It also suggests that it is appropriate to travel improvisedly or travel alone in order to experience more serendipity in travel.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of self-regulatory mode (locomotion mode vs. assessment mode) on purchase intention according to the sorting possibility and categorization. Experiment 1 examines the moderating effects of attribute’s alignability, and Experiment 2 examines the moderating effects of categorization. College students in Seoul and Kyunggi province participated in experiments for 20 days from May 4 to 15, 2018, with 247 participants and 203 participants in Experiment 1 and Experiment 2, respectively. As a result, In Experiment 1, the interaction effect of the attribute’s alignability and the self-regulatory mode were statistically significant. In Experiment 2, the interaction effect between categorization and self-regulatory mode were statistically significant. In conclusion, the results of this experiment suggest the implications of consumers' behavioral changes in purchasing travel products and suggestions of how to present them in presenting travel products.

Authors: Arapović Jurica , Sulaver Željana , Rajič Borko , Pilav Aida
Published: May 2019

Measles are a highly contagious and communicable viral disease which may be prevented by a sustained vaccination program. Due to missed vaccination, two major epidemics of measles (1997–1999 and 2014–2015) have been recorded after the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BH) with over 10,000 patients registered. According to the World Health Organization, BH is categorized as a country with endemic transmission of measles. The last measles epidemic was between 2014 and 2015, with 5,083 documented patients in the Federation of BH. In the first four months of 2019, more than 700 measles cases were registered in the same region. Significant transmission rate has been observed in Sarajevo Canton (SC) with 570 documented measles cases. Out of 570 measles cases in SC, 92.5% were unvaccinated. The most affected were children up to 6 years of age (62.8%), with one documented case of death (7-month old infant). In addition to this report, we discussed key stakeholders and possible circumstances responsible for the epidemic. The measles epidemic is still ongoing.

UC Davis - Mouse Model Creation v1
Authors: Lloyd Kent
Published: May 2019

Summary: This is a generic protocol for making genetically-altered mouse models for research. Investigators who do not have a mutant mouse to send for testing at the MMPC @ UC Davis can ask for the mutant mouse to be derived by the MMPC @ UC Davis, through the UC Davis Mouse Biology Program. Genetically altered mice can be made on most genetic backgrounds, such as C57BL/6, FVB/N, B6D2F1 and other hybrids, and others. Transgenic (random genomic integration of expression-competent transgenes) and gene targeted (specific insertion and/or replacement of an endogenous genetic locus) mutant mice can generated. “Knockout” mice can be made so as to delete endogenous gene expression ubiquitously and conditionally in either a specific cell or tissue type (spatial conditional) and/or at a specific age (temporal conditional). Numerous technologies are available for the derivation of mutant mice, including molecular construct design, gene targeted in embryonic stem (ES) cells, pronuclear microinjection of transgenic constructs into zygotes, ES cell microinjection into blastocysts, genome editing in ES cells and zygotes (e.g., TALENs, CRISPR/Cas9). Mutant mice can be genotype confirmed (see MMPC item D2004) and custom bred to generate cohorts of male and/or female mice for phenotyping at the MMPC @ UC Davis.

Inferential structures in old Romanian. The conditional and the concessive
Authors: Găitănaru Ștefan
Published: May 2019

The present study aims to highlight the fact that the conditional and concessive periods are two forms of manifestation of the hypothetical-deductive reasoning at the level of natural language. The evolution of the connectors has been described in diachrony, sometimes with the emphasis of the interference zones, with the semantic values imposed by the modal component of the predicativity and by the contextual determinism. The evolutionary analysis of the connectors has highlighted the fact that the old Romanian language, in order to impose the concessive procedural meaning, owns, like the other Romanic languages, a great area of creativity, but, unlike them, it also exercises its conservative character. The conception of the two syntactic relations as variants of the same system, studies the stylistic projection (the paradox and the oxymoron), the semantic and formal relation of the connectors and the implication of the adversative coordinating connectives in the polarization of the oppositions in the old Romanian language.
Traducerile în română ale legislației austriece pentru provincia Bucovina (1775–1918)
Authors: Zup Iulia Elena
Published: May 2019

Prezenta lucrare tratează contextul în care a fost tradusă în română legislația Imperiului Habsburgic pentru provincia Bucovina și identifică trei perioade de traducere corespunzătoare transformărilor administrative majore și evoluției stilului juridic românesc. Rolul traducerilor este analizat în cadrul procesului de transfer cultural între centru și periferie, accentul fiind pus pe strategiile lingvistice utilizate de traducători, care au compensat astfel neajunsurile unui limbaj și gîndiri juridice la un stadiu de evoluţie inferior faţă de cel german. Este evaluat impactul traducerilor asupra evoluției culturale și lingvistice a României.
Constitutional and Civilistic Bases for Public Relations Differentiation into Organizational and Property Relations. Reflections on the Margins of Oleg E. Kutafin Doctoral Dissertation, 1979, “Planned Activities of the Soviet State: A State-Legal Aspect”
Authors: Sevostyanov-Briksov V. V.
Published: May 2019

It is proposed to form the constitutional and civilistic foundations of the general legal theory of organizational and property relations. Oleg E. Kutafin was a forrunner of the formation of such foundations. Organizational and property relations are gathered into a uniform binary paradigm. Immanent (inalienable) rights by their nature include only certain legal organizational rights (the right to judicial protection, the right to relief in court, etc.). The presence of subjective inalienable rights in a number of organizational relations once again emphasizes that within the framework of the universal binary paradigm “the organizational — the property”, the property relations possess special ontological continuation of organizational relations. The organizational and property criteria should be taken as two opposite functional manifestations of organization as an essential characteristic of social relations. These two incarnations do not compromise the integrity because their difference does not go into the denial of the essence of any of the social relations. Property, as a phenomenon of a specific nature, overcomes the manifestation of the organization as a phenomenon of a general nature. However, property acts as a legal description of certain legal rights, responsibilities, relationships similar to organization, publicity, etc. The definition of the property relation as the relation regarding material, physical object has introductory-anticipatory value rather than root or essential one. Alienability of legal rights can be of two types: 1) ability to be withdrawn (the ability to be alienated to someone else by force, without discretion or right-holder’s consent); 2) transferability (the ability to be transfered to someone else at the discretion of the right-holder). A negotiable legal right and (or) obligation of at least one of the participants in the relationship indicates that this social relationship is a property relationship, not organizational one. All other signs of the property relation (compensatory nature, etc.) are auxiliary and do not play an attributive role in qualifying the relation as a property relation.
The Legal Category "Public Good" in the Interpretation of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation
Authors: Likhter P. L.
Published: May 2019

The paper is devoted to the Russian Federation Constitutional Court understanding of the permissible limits of individual autonomy and boundaries of its limitation for the common good.

Constitutional axiology as a form of direct relation to the model and practice of actual constitutionalism functions as the basis for the formation of a social policy. In Russia, economic cataclysms reveal problems in the system of pensions, taxation, employment and education. We are witnessing a certain deformation of the legal consciousness of the population. Such turning points inevitably raise questions about the best balance between the interests of the individual, society and the state.

The threat of imbalance between public and private interests stimulates the highest judicial authorities to interfere in the formation of the hierarchy of constitutional and legal values. Increasingly, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation deals with issues of the common good, the need to take into account public interests in the resolution of tax, labor, civil and other types of disputes.
Freudyen Teorideki “Tekinsizlik” Olgusunun Türk Modernleşmesinde Darbeleri Mümkün Kılan Obskürantist ve Self-Oryantalist Tutumlarla İlişkiselliği Üzerinden Okunması
Authors: KAYA ERDEM Burcu

Bireyi, tüm inanç biçimlerinin ötesinde, ait
olduğu toplumsal bütünlük dâhilinde güçlü kılan bir bilinç biçimi olarak “öz
yeterlik bilinci”, tarihsel izlekte “vesayet demokrasisinin” ötesine geçmenin
başarılması ile mümkündür. Öte yandan söz konusu bilinç, bu başarıyla birlikte,
yurttaş bireyin kararlarını fiili olarak almakla kalmayıp, bu kararları almaya
yetkili olduğu bilinci ve güvenine sahip olmasıyla; “tanıdık bildik olan”ı
kendine, kendini ise “tanıdık bildik olan”a ait, güvende ve muvaffak hissetmesiyle
mümkündür. Bu düşünce düzleminden hareketle çalışma, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’ndan
Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’ne uzanan tarihsel kesitte, meşru ve sivil yönetime
müdahale biçiminde ortaya çıkan “darbe” pratiklerini toplum nezdinde mümkün
kılan psikolojik ve sosyolojik zemini algılama amacına yönelik bir okuma
denemesidir. Bu amaca ilişkin olarak, ilgili metinde, “Türk modernleşmesi”, toplum
sözleşmesinin tarafı olan ülke yurttaşlarının hak ve özgürlükleri ile kaygı
halinin karşısında güven duygusu sağlamlaştırılmış birer birey olma gücünü
içselleştirmelerinin önündeki engeller olarak, “tekinsizlik”, “vesayet
sistemi”, “öz yeterlik bilinci”, “self oryantalist modernleşme” ve
“obskürantizm” kavramları üzerinden hermenötize edilmiştir.
