Crowndsorcing e a invisibilidade laboral
Authors: Barros Albani
Published: January 2024

Este artigo propõe-se a analisar o recente fenômeno do crowdsourcing, enquanto um elemento complexo e mistificador, resultante da relação entre capital, trabalho e a intensa utilização de tecnologias informacionais. O crowdsourcing estabelece um novo estatuto entre a terceirização e a informalidade. Além disso, trata-se de uma modalidade de relação entre empresas, trabalhadores, consumidores e usuários, em que não mais necessariamente os trabalhadores se apresentam nos moldes tradicionais de contratados por seus empregadores. É partir dessas considerações que este artigo expõe o crowdsourcing como um desafio para compreensão de suas possiblidades e múltiplas formas de concretização, que ultrapassa limites rígidos entre o que seria trabalho, lazer ou interação social. A construção dessa exposição foi o resultado de pesquisa bibliográfica, da sistematização de categorias marxistas e da contextualização de determinantes históricos que incidem sobre o fenômeno do crowdsourcing na dinâmica do mundo do trabalho contemporâneo.
S.N. Maksudi and Russian Masons at the beginning of the XX century
Authors: Gaynanova М. R.
Published: January 2024

The article investigates little-known facts in the life of the famous Tatar and Turkish public figure S.N. Maksudi – a turkologist, an educator, a deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Empire and the Majlis of the Turkish Republic at different periods of his life. At the beginning of the XX century a graduate of the Sorbonne University, a young lawyer, Sadri Maksudi, found himself at the center of the political life of the Turkic-Muslim world of Russia. He lived in St. Petersburg and was actively engaged in political activities. Just then he met Russian Freemasons and became a participant in the Masonic movement.

The attitude towards Masonry in the Russian history is characterized by different assessments, for example, they were credited with participation in conspiracies, possession of secret knowledge, etc. In fact, most Masons were liberals who advocated the introduction of a wide range of democratic freedoms in Russia, including expanding the rights of national minorities. This attracted one of the leaders of Russian Islam, who actively defended the ideas of equality and enlightenment of his people.

The article presents the analysis of the history of the opening of Masonic lodges in St. Petersburg after the revolution of 1905-1907 and their activities during the inter-revolutionary period, in which S.N. Maksudi took part.

The purpose of the study was to analyze the views of the Tatar politician S.N. Maksudi through the prism of his participation in Masonic organizations of the early XX century. For this purpose the author used biographical, historical-genetic and historical-comparative research methods, as well as general scientific and dialectical methods of analysis. As a result, we came to the conclusion that despite all the objective differences between the social movement of Muslims in Russia and the teachings of the Freemasons, there were common ideological ideas between them, which attracted the Tatar-Muslim leader Sadri Maksudi to the ranks of the masons, which was reflected in his political life.
Revisiting social responsibility as a characteristic feature of social interactions in various fields
Authors: Ashinov В. Yu. , Kumpilova А. R.
Published: January 2024

The relevance of the research topic is determined by the fact that social responsibility seems to be an important condition for the stability of social order and development. During the periods of crisis, the problem of leveling social responsibility among individuals and communities arises. The purpose of the research is to identify the most significant areas of social life of a modern man in the 21st century, where social responsibility is considered as a significant category that requires particularly close scientific analysis. When working with empirical material, methods applied in Sociology of culture and Sociology of management have been used - axiological, typological, structural-functional ones. Based on the results of the research, it has been revealed that research into the implementation of social responsibility in the sphere of economic relations - business and corporate interactions - is most in demand. Scientists are also interested in the need to demonstrate social responsibility in the field of Biotechnology and activities of engineers, who should focus not only on the scientific and technical, but also on the humanitarian component of production. In the current information society, the social responsibility of the media is of particular importance. The key conclusions include theses that social responsibility as a way of positively responding to the requests of those in need (individuals, groups, society) is being formed very slowly due to various historical, socio-economic, general cultural and psychological reasons; social responsibility is difficult to manage, it cannot be formed under compulsion; it is necessary to find a balance of economic benefits and ethical altruistic values that are embedded in the religious and traditional systems of ethnic cultures.

The formation of volunteer movements in Russia: development problems and dynamics
Authors: Kushkhova A. M. , Kubova A. A.
Published: January 2024

The research is determined by the fact that the role of social movements in the modern world is increasing due to the deterioration of the socio-economic and political situations. Today, the global economic crisis has a negative impact on the condition of the most vulnerable segments of the population. The global community sees the potential in volunteer organizations to provide assistance where it is urgently needed: from healthcare to emergency response. The problem of the research is that volunteering turned out to be a new phenomenon that requires legal and public support for Russia in the post-Soviet period. In the research the methods of sociocultural analysis were used based on scientific literature and regulatory sources, statistical data on the work of volunteer organizations in Russia, both at federal and regional levels. The key conclusion is the need for public recognition and financial incentives for non-profit public organizations involved in volunteering. The state must regulate the legal framework for the activities of NPOs, develop and adopt a unified set of legal norms for application at the federal and regional levels of government. At the same time, it cannot be denied that volunteer movements are already playing one of the cool roles in the formation of patriotism, socially oriented consciousness and the education of the younger generation.
Social partnership in law enforcement: theoretical and methodological aspects of the research
Authors: Laschenov M. S.
Published: January 2024

The relevance of the research topic is determined by the search for the reasons for the unsatisfactory practice of building social partnerships in the law enforcement sphere. The main problem of the current state of affairs, according to the author, is the presence of an axiological barrier in the minds of the intended subjects of interaction: internal affairs bodies and public law enforcement organizations. The length of time it takes to overcome the axiological barrier, as well as the lack of progressive dynamism in building an effective system, are burdened by a lack of understanding of the nature of the phenomenon of social partnership. This circumstance contributed to the dominance of a predominantly normative basis for mobilizing the movement of «social activists» and predetermined the administrative-command methods of stimulating public activity «from above.» This has given rise to simulation and over-centralized practices that exclude the value content of the communication process, initiative, interest, independence, personal responsibility and other mandatory attributes of a partner form of interaction.

The purpose of the research is to determine the essential characteristics of social partnership, systematization and accounting of which will allow us to propose a conceptual basis for its formation in the law enforcement sphere. The research method is abstract situation modeling where the development of partnerships is analyzed through a system-activity approach. It makes possible to study both the systemic properties of social partnership and the specifics of the activity content of the analyzed model, which generates successful joint actions of subjects in the process of building a social partnership.

The results and key conclusions of the research have made it possible to describe the essential features of the partnership form of interaction, present the author’s definition of social partnership in the law enforcement sphere and propose the main directions for its activation in order to build truly partnership practices.
Belt and Road - A Determination of its Success in Countries in Global Communities
Authors: Tadepalli Nikhil , Mendez Jason
Published: January 2024

The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) launched by China in 2013 aims to improve global connectivity, facilitate trade, and promote economic growth. While the BRI has seen success in many member countries, some countries have experienced limited benefits. This research paper explores the factors contributing to the success or failure of the BRI in different countries. Drawing from existing literature, we identify transparency, debt sustainability, environmental standards improvement, adoption of social safety nets, and labor mobility as key factors influencing the BRI's outcomes. We analyze data from selected BRI countries, including Cuba, Chile, Gabon, Portugal, and Singapore, to assess the impact of these factors. Transparency is measured using the HRV index, debt sustainability using the GDP-Debt Ratio, environmental standards improvement using the Air Pollution Exposure Index, adoption of social safety nets using healthcare expenditure as a percentage of GDP, and labor mobility using data from the International Labor Organization. Additionally, we examine the GDP per capita as an economic status indicator. Our findings reveal variations in the success of the BRI across different countries, with factors such as transparency, debt sustainability, and environmental standards playing significant roles. The research provides insights into the complex dynamics of the BRI and offers valuable recommendations for improving its effectiveness in member countries.

Authors: Choe Teebok , Miguez Patricia , Walter Ricardo , Musskopf Marta
Published: January 2024

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of experience and specialty training on the success and survival of dental implant therapy for single-unit fixed restoration of missing teeth in a university setting.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted using data from the electronic patient record system at the Adams School of Dentistry. The Office of Computing and Information Systems provided dental records from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2018, following the inclusion criteria. The records were manually reviewed by one evaluator (TC). Extracted from the records were subjects’ demographics; medical, dental, and social history; implant parameters; grafting procedures; and timing of placement/restoration/loading. Also recorded were the specialty training and level of experience, i.e., pre-doctoral student, resident, and faculty; the restoration type; radiographic confirmation of osseointegration before restoration; and occlusal splint fabrication. Fisher’s Exact Test was applied to determine if the providers’ specialty training and experience had any statistical significance on implant success and survival.

Results: A total of 501 implants were included in the study. Statistically significant were provider training (AEGD versus specialties, implant survival and success), subject’s gender (implant survival), implant type/manufacturer (implant survival and success), and immediate placement (implant survival). The overall survival rate was 97.0% while the success rate was 85.4%.

Conclusion: The type of clinical training impacted implant outcome, only when comparing AEGD versus specialties. Operator’s experience has no significance on the results.
Lifestyle vs Transplantation Therapies Aiding in Pancreatic Beta Cell Protection for Type 1 Diabetes
Authors: Stierli Micah , Abdalbari Ali , Pore Arya
Published: January 2024

Pancreatic beta cells highly influence the level of insulin within the body.  This being due to the beta cell’s ability to create and regulate the production of insulin (the hormone that manages blood sugar extent). Unfortunately, the increasing death rate of these cells has complicated insulin independence for people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) continues to be a serious concern considering the globally growing incidence rate and the regard that there is no currently confirmed cure.  However, multiple new cellular therapies have been explored and evaluated to aid in beta cell regeneration strategies.  This literature review focuses specifically on commonly practiced beta cell regeneration therapies for type 1 diabetes.  These therapeutic approaches were divided to fit into one of two categories, these categories being cellular reproduction and cell replacement which will be further expanded on throughout this article.  Topics discussed within the work aim to exhibit a brief overview of the type 1 diabetes patient population, beta cell pathophysiology, and cover concepts regarding methods of measuring procedural success.  The majority of this article will be centered around commonly practiced clinical strategies involving pancreas/islet cell transplantation and therapeutic lifestyle approaches.  All this is concluded with a general comparison of typical beta cell therapies.
A Study on the Imagology of Tibetan People and Shangri-La in Lost Horizon
Authors: Xing Yexuan
Published: January 2024

“There is only one valley of Blue Moon, and those who expect to find another are asking too much of Nature” (Hilton 63). After the First World War in the 1930s, several war-persecuted Europeans discovered the Shangri-La utopia in China. This essay uses imagology to analyze the foreign culture in Lost Horizon from both character and setting perspectives and the cultural conflicts of the Orient and the Occident. Written by James Hilton, Lost Horizon adequately illustrates the image of Tibet from a Western perspective of that era. Mystical Shangri-La is scenic and full of romantic fantasy, a symbol of peace and tranquility. Apart from the remarkable scenery, the book also contains inequalities between the social status of East and West, especially the prejudiced contempt and discrimination against the Chinese people in Tibetan areas. Lurking in the background are omnifarious ethnic, political and cultural conflicts and severe oppression. Behind the yearning for an Eastern land is the Eurocentrism, colonialism and racial superiority rooted in Western ethnicity.
Diet for a Better World: Exploring the Intersectional Impact of Meat-based vs Plant-Based Diets and First Steps for Change
Authors: Mankarios Celina
Published: January 2024

Humanity is faced with numerous pressing issues from the health crisis and human rights violations to climate change and animal cruelty. Although various methods are being employed to solve these issues, dietary changes are often overlooked. Unbeknownst to many people, the meat, dairy and fish industries continue to play a substantial role in perpetuating environmental degradation, animal cruelty, and human rights issues. However, the adoption of a 'plant-based' or 'vegan' diet emerges as a powerful catalyst for yielding widespread change in these issues. This research paper aims to explore the importance of transitioning society away from animal-based diets and towards plant based meals. Addressing a spectrum of urgent issues, this paper underscores the often underestimated potential of transitioning to plant-based diets as a potential solution to human, animal and environmental issues.  The paper commences with a meta-analysis, employing an intersectional lens of human ethics, animal ethics, environmental concerns, and health perspectives, to evaluate the negative repercussions of animal agriculture industries. Perceived negatives of plant-based diets will then be explored to holistically conceptualize whether veganism is a valid and feasible option for individual and societal change. Lastly, drawing from prior studies and acknowledging the  barriers of transitioning to a plant-based lifestyle, the paper culminates in proposing first steps for creating a successful plant-based transition: the implementation of plant-based meals and education in schools.
Empathy Unmasked: Exploring the Neural Mechanisms of Empathy and Cognitive Functions in Understanding Others
Authors: Kanch Zahra , Bekele Hebron , Kashfi Ava , Semework Mulugeta
Published: January 2024

This article is a literature review paper on an analysis of the neural mechanisms underlying empathy and cognitive functions related to the comprehension of other individuals. Empathy refers to a multifaceted psychological phenomenon characterized by the capacity to understand and share the emotional and cognitive states of others. It involves the ability to perceive and resonate with the feelings, thoughts, and perspectives of people, often leading to a sense of emotional connection and a willingness to provide support or assistance based on this understanding. Neuroscientists and psychologists alike have extensively explored various brain regions and neural processes that potentially contribute to empathy. However, despite significant research efforts, a definitive understanding of the precise underlying factors that give rise to empathy remains elusive. Exploring the mechanisms of empathy is still in its nascent stages, but researchers have developed a multitude of theories connected to this concept, such as the role of mirror neurons, mental perspective-taking, theory of mind network, and the role of different ROIs (regions of interest) in the brain. Throughout this paper, these diverse theories are explored, examining the empirical evidence supporting each one and evaluating their potential applicability to empathy. By critically assessing these theories, we aim to contribute to the ongoing discourse surrounding the root causes of empathy, with the ultimate goal of discerning which theory holds the most validity, how these theories may overlap or differ, and how to make optimal use of this intricate phenomenon.
A Gap Analysis Evaluating Project Homekey’s Time-effectiveness in Housing Homeless in Los Angeles
Authors: Parmar Reeya
Published: January 2024

California has been long burdened with the highest rate of homelessness in the United States. However, in recent years, a new housing initiative, Project Homekey, has begun converting city-purchased hotel and motel properties into individual units to temporarily house California’s financially insecure individuals. The nascent program has shown promise, however, due to its recent creation, much of the research surrounding the program focuses on its cost-effectiveness rather than its time-effectiveness in reducing homeless numbers within Los Angeles. Using a gap analysis approach, this study aimed to fill this gap while focusing on 9 recently bought properties within the city of Los Angeles. Publicly accessible city files were used to find and calculate the average rate of stay for Project Homekey inhabitants, and with knowledge of the amount of converted units per property as well as the current homeless population – unsheltered and total – within each city council district of Los Angeles, it was estimated how many years it would take to house each city district’s homeless population. Finally, a gap analysis SWOT tool was employed to study the overall soundness of the program in relation to its time effectiveness, and to point out areas of improvement and areas of success. Ultimately, it was concluded that Project Homekey, although estimated to take decades to resolve Los Angeles’s Homeless population, was a viable solution to the arduous issue. Nonetheless, due to the constraint of available resources, there are several limitations as to the extent of the conclusion’s applicability.
A Comprehensive Review on the Surgical Landscape in Breast Cancer Management
Authors: Alteneiji Alya Saeed Ali Khamis , Almheiri Ali Mohamed Alsari , Saleh Mohamed
Published: January 2024

Purpose: The purpose of this narrative review is to examine the literature on the topic of breast surgery and its benefits for women with metastatic breast cancer. Breast surgery can involve either a mastectomy, which involves removing the entire breast along with lymph nodes, nipple, and areola, or a lumpectomy, which involves removing breast tissue and tumour but leaving the nipple and areola intact.

Methodology: We included any English-language study published between 2000 and 2021 that looked at the effects of breast surgery on survival or quality of life for women with metastatic breast cancer, whether it was an interventional study or an observational study. We utilised a combination of keywords like "Breast surgery," "mastectomy," "lumpectomy," "metastatic disease," "survival," "observational studies," "intervention studies," and "quality of life" to scour sources like PubMed and Embase. We considered randomised controlled trials that contrasted hormonal therapy, radiation, chemotherapy, biologic therapy, and supportive care with breast surgery alone or in combination with systemic therapy. A variety of outcomes were considered, including overall survival, quality of life, toxicity from local treatment as measured by one-month mortality, survival without progression, and survival specific to breast cancer.

Findings: The evidence from randomised controlled trials is limited and not conclusive, while observational studies do suggest that breast surgery may benefit with metastatic breast cancer. Since observational studies are prone to problems like selection bias and unmeasured confounding, it is difficult to draw any conclusions regarding the advantages of breast surgery without solid proof from RCTs.

Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Each woman diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer should be considered individually when deciding whether or not to undergo surgery. This should be done until results from big ongoing RCTs are available. When considering treatment options, the patient and doctor must weigh the pros and cons of each, as well as the associated costs. The current lack of strong evidence calls for more randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in both developing and developed nations, with bigger sample sizes.

Apagón educativo: derecho humano a la educación en la Costa Rica del Estado neoliberal
Authors: Cordero-Méndez Francisco
Published: January 2024

Este artículo se propone cotejar las perspectivas de docentes universitarios sobre el ingreso de lógicas y valores de mercado en el campo educativo con la educación como derecho humano. Con ese fin, se ha recurrido a entrevistas y un grupo focal, con la participación de 20 docentes universitarios de las áreas de educación y ciencias sociales de la Universidad de Costa Rica y la Universidad Estatal a Distancia de este país. Mediante el enfoque de teoría fundamentada y las categorías asequibilidad y accesibilidad aportadas por Tomasevski (2004), se concluye que las y los docentes coinciden en exponer una posición antihegemónica respecto al rol que debe desempeñar el Estado en el ámbito educativo y que la pandemia por SARS CoV-2 ha propiciado condiciones capaces de descorrer el velo (efecto alétheia y ruptura de la promesa de la educación), que hasta entonces había mantenido parcialmente oculto el rezago educativo que el Estado neoliberal no ha logrado resolver con su visión y gestión de la política educativa.
Investigación Vinculada y los propósitos de la educación superior intercultural
Authors: Jiménez Moyo Cuauhtémoc , Ávila Pardo Adriana Aurora
Published: January 2024

En este artículo se reflexiona sobre la razón de ser de la educación en la actualidad, desde el campo de la educación superior intercultural en México. Para ello analizamos la Investigación Vinculada (IV) de la Universidad Veracruzana Intercultural (UVI). Dicha estrategia pedagógica ha permitido a la comunidad de la UVI concretar el objetivo de formar perfiles profesionales que respondan al ideal político y pedagógico de alcanzar sociedades más justas y equitativas. El análisis que se presenta retoma resultados de dos investigaciones de corte etnográfico (una sobre la etapa fundacional de la UVI en 2004 y otra sobre trayectorias formativas de estudiantes y egresados, concluida en 2023), lo que permite reflejar la complejidad del fenómeno educativo al ser producto de un análisis diacrónico y sincrónico articulado. La principal conclusión apunta a pensar que la razón por la que se educa en la UVI es para participar en la disputa por la hegemonía de otros modos de ser y de estar en el mundo contemporáneo.
Sociedades automatizadas y Educación 4.0. Retos, perspectivas y contradicciones de pensar la formación humana como Ingeniería Social
Authors: Mata García Bernardino , Santos Cervantes Cristóbal , Zepeda Moreno Moisés Ezequiel
Published: January 2024

Para este trabajo hemos recabado y organizado de manera teórica una serie de horizontes conceptuales que parecen necesarios para comenzar a promover debates académicos relacionados a la llamada Educación 4.0. Lo anterior resultó necesario derivado de la preocupación que surgió de un estudio llevado a cabo sobre la llamada Nueva Ley de Educación Superior propuesta por la Cuarta Transformación. Como resultado de dicho análisis encontramos un profundo vacío conceptual, la falta de un análisis geopolítico de las implicaciones que significa la revolución tecnocientífica en cuanto al impacto a nivel de las estructuras educativas y una escasa planificación educativa por parte de las autoridades que promovieron el documento sobre la actual revolución tecnológica. Por ello, aquí ubicamos una serie de conceptos y fundamentos éticos básicos para comenzar un debate casi extinto en México que, vale la pena señalar, tiene una dependencia estructural muy profunda hacia uno de los países con mayor peso geopolítico en el tema (Estados Unidos). Abordaremos las consecuencias y las tendencias que la Educación 4.0 impulsa por medio de Tecnologías Educativas.

The present work demonstrates the Green synthesis of silver nano-particles (AgNPs) using the Rhododendron campanulatum flower extract and their potential applications as photo catalyst and antioxidant. Several spectral approaches viz., UV-Vis, XRD, SEM-EDAX, BET isotherm and TEM were used to characterise the biosynthesized AgNPs in detail.The UV-Vis spectroscopy showed that the biosynthesized AgNPs have surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak at 472 nm. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies confirmed the crystalline nature of biosynthesized AgNPs with mean crystalline size ~22.97 nm. According to the TEM examinations, the synthesized AgNPs were poly dispersed, smooth in morphology, irregularly shaped, and had an average grain size of 43.75 nm. The adsorption studies showed that the biosynthesized AgNPs have the single point surface area (at P/Po) was 0.1398 m2/gm, BET surface area was 0.1057 m2/gm, Langmuir surface area was 0.1465 m2/gm, and the micro pore area was 0.7834 m2/gm. The antioxidant efficacy of as synthesized AgNPs was determined using DPPH scavenging method, and the IC50 value was observed 38.68 μg/mL. Photocatalytic activity of synthesized AgNPs was determined by studying the adsorption/desorption equilibrium between the AgNPs and the solutions of MB, and RB dyes. The synthesized AgNPs showed the dye degradation efficacy of 73.88% for methylene blue (MB) dye, and 76.62% for Rose Bengal (RB) dye; however, in the absence of AgNPs, the degradation efficacy was observed as17.55% and 48.80% in 4 hours under photo-irradiation for MB and RB dye, respectively.

It has been noted from the past few decades, researchers are striving for the development of natural alternate to antibiotic due to their resistance problems. Bacterial infection and its resistance is a major health issue that affects millions of people throughout the world. Sesamum indicum L. is one of the important seed crops worldwide to get edible seed and oil. In the present study we evaluate the chemical characteristics including refractive index, wt/ml, pH, viscosity, acid value, iodine value and peroxide value and found that the obtained Results are under the specification. The antimicrobial activity of oil shows that the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is in the range of 17 µl to 460 µl. the best MIC is 17 µl against Salmonella species. The zone of inhibition of sesame oil against the tested microorganism is in the range of 18 mm to 25 mm. the best zone of inhibition is 25 mm against Salmonella species. So we can say that the antimicrobial activity of sesame oil is best against Salmonella speciesout of the microorganism which we have taken for activity.
