Attorney as the Main Subject of Qualified Legal Assistance Rendering
Authors:   Professor of the Department of Theory of Law and Comparative Legal Studies of the Russian State University for the Humanities Doctor of History, Lavitskaya Marina I.
Published: August 2021

The article examines the features of the legal regulation of the legal profession and the advocate as the main subject of the provision of qualified legal assistance. The author comes to the conclusion that now there is a need for a legal definition of the concepts of «legal aid» in general, and «qualified legal aid» in particular. This must be done within the framework of federal law, which could legally manifest semantically those concepts that currently exist only at the doctrinal level. For the full development of the system of providing qualified legal assistance with the aim of the fullest realization of constitutional rights, it is necessary to strengthen state mechanisms for the protection of rights and freedoms, and to reform non-state mechanisms, in particular, the legal profession.

The article examines the typical mistakes of defense lawyers in the application of the criminal law when qualifying for the object and subject of the crime.

Published: August 2021

The article is devoted to the administrative and legal regimes in the penal system. The authors point to the complex nature of the administrative and legal regimes that ensure the normal functioning of institutions and bodies of the penal system. The introduction of special administrative and legal regimes is justified by the occurrence of situations that violate the activities of the penal system. Attention is drawn to the fact that not all special regimes in the penal system have legislative or departmental regulation, hence the difficulties in their application. The solution to the problem is seen in the theoretical substantiation of the content of this institution, the systematization of the organizational forms of its provision, the reflection of its characteristics in the legislation.

Special attention is paid to the territorial bodies of internal affairs, in which the legal subdivision is represented by a small number of members — a legal direction or a group, or the position of a legal adviser, contrary to regulatory requirements, has not been introduced.

The relationship between society and the State takes various forms. The breadth of such interaction involves the development and implementation of mechanisms of interaction not previously used when extraordinary events occur. The provision of public services with the introduction of extraordinary administrative and legal regimes is at the same time experiencing significant difficulties. The difficulties require the transformation of the system of providing public services not only in order to solve new problems, but also to increase the effectiveness of public authorities with the population when abolishing the extraordinary regime. The authors concluded that in Russian law enforcement practice, the use of an unannounced procedure for the provision of public services should expand. The consolidation of a proactive (proactive) regime is a step in the process of improving the efficiency of public services. However, the movement in the indicated direction must continue. It is necessary to exclude from the legislation the principle of the application procedure for the provision of public services.

The current Criminal Procedure Code has introduced several elements specific to adversarial law. Among these specific elements, I consider that a special impact on those interested in or targeted by the dispositions of criminal law is "negotiated justice". Traditionally, in the field of ​​criminal procedural law, several institutions specific to the continental system have been adopted in our country, that impose for the diagnosis of the legal problem, so that in criminal procedural law the objective truth must be identical to the judicial truth, hence the fact that judges can't base their rulings on anything else than actual facts. During the evolution of civilization, three criminal procedural systems have appeared progressively, in a chronological (historical) order in full accordance with the political and social tendency of the states at a certain moment, namely the inquisitorial system, the accusatory system, respectively the mixed system, named the continental system. We will resort in the following article to a brief presentation of these criminal procedural systems, while making a brief analysis of each of them.

Definitely the title of the volume ”Bărbatul și femeia. imaginea unei polemici cu privire la echitatea de gen” [The Man and the Woman. The Image of a Controversy Regarding Gender Equity], which is authored by Iulian Apostu and Cristina Georgiana Petrescu, published by Lumen Publishing House in Iași, Romania, in 2017, would make us think of a whole series of statements full of flavor and candor about social reality and about the eternal contradiction between man and woman, but no, the book is not about conflict, vanity, quarrels. It is about the essence of men's coexistence with women, about egalitarianism explained with charm and attention to detail. In the 157 pages you can't help but find yourself, it's impossible not to empathize with the authors and you end up with some passages that you might use in order to enter into a dialogue with your own person and you don't know why. And the answer, of course, also comes from the pages of the book, which through the structure of the chapters takes the topics one by one, fixes them, capitalizes on them and places them in contexts that you identify with without doubt and are topical in today's society.

Regional development is a field of research and a discipline of study that transcends several fields of social sciences, and can be studied by students in the fields of administrative, political, economic, social and humanistic sciences and others that include this subject in the curriculum. Regional development is also an attribute of public administration in all Member States of the European Union, as well as outside Europe, with ministries dedicated to implementing balanced regional development policies. Therefore, the book written by the author Daniela Antonescu, “Dezvoltarea regională. Teorie și practică” [Regional development. theory and practice], published by Lumen Publishing House in Iași, Romania, in 2019, who I consider a great specialist in this field (as she is the organizer of a conference on this topic, that attracts specialists from Romania and abroad), addresses a broad public of readers: both researchers and teachers concerned with development issues, as well as civil servants, members of national governments or parliaments, MEPs, members of other international fora, concerned with regional development, which includes not only the region as a territory but also subdivisions at local level: county, municipality / city, commune, village, on a case-by-case basis.

Adolescence is the age of impetuous transformations, but also the age of crises accompanied by anxiety, insecurity, depression. When discrimination - a phenomenon that has certainly affected the lives of each of us - is added to them, the "route" of teenagers to the crystallization of self-identity becomes even more difficult. Awareness of discrimination and taking on the mission to prevent/combat it, by cultivating values and attitudes such as respect for diversity, equity, tolerance, solidarity, cooperation become, in this way, objectives of the school, achievable in the context of social education. Going in this direction, the RAINBOW project aims to promote social inclusion and positive EU values through capitalizing of non-formal education and its specific methods into the school education. Within this project, a research was carried out with a target group consisted of 1487 students and 254 secondary school teachers from six European countries: Belgium, Bulgaria, France, Italy, Romania and Spain. From Romania, a group of 37 teachers and 267 students was part of this approach. The research method used was the survey based on questionnaire, and regarding the target group of teenagers students, the objectives included identifying their perception of discrimination, awareness of negative effects of social media, but also the importance of civic competences development. Referring to the need for a proper understanding of the phenomenon of discrimination, in this study we integrated some of the results of research conducted within the Rainbow Project, presenting some important data on teenagers' perceptions and experience on discrimination.

Published: August 2021

Worms infection is still common in Indonesia with a prevalence that varies around 40% -60% at all ages. This disease can be caused by infection of Soil-Transmitted Helminths (STH) that require soil media to infect humans. The many plantation lands in Jember are a suitable environment for the development of STH and STH identification in soil can be done by flotation method using MgSO4 solution or sucrose. The comparison of the effectiveness of the MgSO4 solution with the sucrose solution has not been widely studied. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of using saturated MgSO4 solution with saturated sucrose to identify eggs and larvae of STH in Sumber Wadung plantation soil, Hargomulyo Village, Silo District, Jember Regency using the flotation method. Soil samples were taken as many as 35 samples in the garden area, 35 samples around the river, and 35 samples in residential areas,. The results of identification of STH eggs and larvae obtained Ascarid eggs (1.9%) and Hookworm larvae (0.01%). The number of positive soil samples containing STH eggs and larvae using different solutions is the same as three samples (0.02%).The Wilcoxon test results showed that there was no difference in the results of using the MgSO4 solution with the sucrose solution in the flotation method (p> 0.05) so that the MgSO4 solution and sucrose solution could be used to detect eggs and larvae of STH worms and had the same effectiveness.

Authors: Cardoso Diogo Phalempin , Oliveira Daniela , Antunes Beatriz , Saraiva Rosa , Angus Kathryn , Gallardo Eugenia , Rosário Frederico
Published: August 2021

Introduction: Alcohol consumption ranks among the top ten risk factors contributing to the global disease burden. Several international organizations recommend the use of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test to screen for at-risk drinkers. However, a fully validated Portuguese version of this test is lacking. The aim of this study is to systematically review validated versions of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test in the Portuguese language, the documented problems and solutions in its application and proposed cut-offs to identify at-risk drinkers.Material and Methods: A systematic search will be performed in Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, ÍndexRMP, LILACS, African Journals Online and SciELO databases, along with grey literature searches to identify validation studies of the AUDIT in Portuguese. Two authors will independently extract data and assess the studies’ methodological quality, using QUADAS-2 and CASP checklists.Discussion: This review will compare different validation studies of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test in Portuguese-speaking countries, reporting, where possible, the psychometric properties, performance characteristics, suggested cut-offs and any documented limitations and suggestions. The results of this review could be used to propose an update of the alcohol screening and brief intervention guidelines in Portugal. The results could also prove useful to support the implementation of alcohol screening delivery by healthcare providers in Portugal and other official Portuguese-speaking countries.Conclusion: This review will provide important information on the validity of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test as a screening tool for at-risk drinking in Portugal and other official Portuguese speaking countries.
Desafíos y oportunidades del sistema educativo ante la inmigración y la diversidad cultural
Authors: Garrido Rodríguez Pedro
Published: August 2021

Este artículo nace de la participación en el II Coloquio Internacional Educación e Interculturalidad, celebrado en abril de 2019 en la Facultad de Educación de la Universidad de Salamanca. Aborda tres cuestiones clave en nuestro sistema educativo actual. La primera son las variables que intervienen en el proceso de migración con respecto a la educación del alumnado inmigrante. Proceso que depende de factores muy diversos que exceden lo educativo, como el acceso a los servicios fundamentales del estado del bienestar en igualdad de condiciones o las características socioeconómicas de la familia. En segundo lugar, se analiza la situación del alumnado inmigrante en la actualidad, marcada por la baja escolarización en las etapas postobligatorias, un índice de fracaso escolar elevado y expectativas socioeconómicas reducidas. Algo que nuestro sistema educativo debe solventar inexorablemente en cumplimiento con su función de posibilitar la integración, el progreso y el ascenso social. Esto nos lleva a la tercera cuestión: la respuesta que deben ofrecer los sistemas educativos al alumnado inmigrante. Esta ha de pasar siempre por fomentar en todo momento un modelo intercultural, en lo educativo y en lo social. Es decir, un modelo que ofrezca soluciones a las necesidades específicas de los alumnos que lo componen, que posibilite la igualdad de oportunidades y que garantice una educación normalizada, inclusiva y de calidad, generando la interacción y el enriquecimiento mutuo de su alumnado a través de metodologías activas y aprendizaje cooperativo.
Interculturalidad, migración y educación en el mundo contemporáneo
Authors: Fornet Betancourt Raúl
Published: August 2021

Trataré de exponer algunas refle­xio­nes sobre la Interculturalidad y las migraciones contemporáneas, sus impactos y desafíos a la Edu­cación, desde la perspectiva de la filosofía intercultural. Lo que quiere decir que mis reflexiones van a suponer una determinada percepción o compren­sión del tema, ya que precisamente lo veo desde la perspectiva de la filosofía intercultural. ¿Qué quiere decir esto más en concreto? Lo siguiente: Que entiendo “interculturalidad y migraciones contemporáneas” como elementos de un con­texto mayor que podemos llamar con un título general “nuestro mundo contemporáneo de hoy”. Es en ese mundo donde hay “interculturalidad” y “mi­­graciones contemporáneas”. Y es desde ese contexto mayor del mundo contemporáneo que hay que reflexionar también sobre la otra parte del te­ma, a saber, los “impactos y de­sa­fíos a la Educación”.
Direitos dos pacientes
Authors: Sacardo Daniele , Freitas Rhama
Published: August 2021

O capítulo aborda a temática dos direitos da(o)s pacientes, questão fundamental para o pleno exercício da cidadania, considerando seu valor intrínseco, o qual implica em deveres por parte de agentes públicos e privados para que seja efetivado nos serviços de saúde e nas relações intersubjetivas entre profissional-paciente. Considerando a necessidade de “humanizar” as práticas sanitárias, a sociedade vem clamando cada vez mais por uma revisão de valores e atitudes na assistência, abrindo espaço para a recuperação da importância da Ética na saúde. Nesse contexto, o movimento por humanização na saúde propõe a construção coletiva de valores, diretrizes e normativas que buscam proteger a dignidade humana, bem como promover a autonomia da(o)s pacientes, o direito à informação respeitosa, preservar sua integridade física e moral, a igualdade da assistência à saúde, livre de preconceitos ou privilégios de qualquer espécie. É, portanto, um imperativo ético na formação e na prática da(o)s profissionais de saúde, aliando o desenvolvimento da competência técnica e tecnológica com a competência ética e relacional em favor do cuidado, resultando em maior qualidade na atenção à saúde e melhores condições de trabalho aos profissionais.

Erro médico sob a óptica do direito
Authors: Giampaoli Vera Lúcia Espinoza
Published: August 2021

Este capítulo apresenta estudo doutrinário e de jurisprudência sobre os questionamentos de condutas médicas nas suas várias instâncias, abordando elementos que devem ser considerados pelo julgador na análise dos processos e orientações que devem ser seguidas na defesa do médico, como a necessidade de perícia e a importância do assistente técnico. São expostos casos de condenação somente pela falta do consentimento informado, em especial em cirurgias de laqueadura, colonoscopia, vasectomia, catarata, cirurgia plástica, tratamento dermatológico, dentre outros. Dada a sua relevância, é abordada a teoria da perda de uma chance, bem como a visão dos tribunais sobre o erro de diagnóstico. Por fim, diante da inexistência de uma tabela que oriente o julgador na valoração do dano moral, são especificadas condutas que originaram condenação do médico e os respectivos valores fixados pelo Superior Tribunal de Justiça a este título.
LEARNING CLEAN AND HEALTHY LIVING BEHAVIOR WITH POP-UP BOOK AND POSTER MEDIA ON CHILDREN AGES 6-12 YEARS AT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, MALANG

Abstract Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (CHLB) is an effort to improve health quality through clean and healthy daily life behaviors. The problem of health behavior in children is related to personal hygiene, the environment, and the emergence of various diseases that often attack children. One of the preventive measures is to teach CHLB to children as early as possible by using interesting and easy-to-understand media for children. This study aims to determine the effect of a combination of a pop-up book and poster media on the ability of CHLB children aged 6-12 years. This study used a cross-sectional approach with 90 respondents divided into 3 groups. Collecting data using a questionnaire and analyzed by univariate, bivariate, and multivariate. The results showed that 66.67% of respondents had knowledge in the sufficient category and 10% in the less category before being given a combination of the two methods. Each respondent experienced a significant change in their knowledge. Statistical testing with MANOVA analysis on the comparison between treatment groups on knowledge, attitudes, and behavior obtained a calculated F value of 172,000 with a significance of <0.001 indicating that there were significant differences between treatment groups on knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. The use of pop-up books and posters can be used in the learning process because they have a major impact on increasing children's knowledge, attitudes, and behavior in an effort to maintain health through clean and healthy living behaviors.

The Chestnut-backed Button-quail Turnix castanotus is widely distributed in monsoonal tropical woodland but previously known only from the Northern Territory and Western Australia. Here we provide the first verified record in Queensland. We observed at least eight birds during October and November 2020 at Westmoreland Station, which is located in far north-western Queensland. These observations represent a significant (~215 km) easterly range extension and are the first confirmed records of this species for Queensland. Chestnut-backed Button-quail had gone undetected in Queensland likely owing to the difficulty in locating and identifying button-quail generally and the low number of birdwatchers in the region. A potential record made by W.R. McLennan in 1910 may represent a previously unreported record of this species in Queensland. Here we describe our observations in 2020 and the habitat where the species was recorded.
The Carbon-Based Evolutionary Theory (CBET)
Authors: Chen Ji-Ming
Published: August 2021

Evolution is fundamental to natural sciences and social sciences. Existing evolutionary theories are incomplete and unable to explain multiple evolutionary issues. To establish a comprehensive and comprehensible evolutionary theory, we employ the concept carbon-based entities (CBEs), which include methane, glucose, proteins, organisms, and other entities chemically containing carbon atoms. We deduce the steps, driving forces, and mechanisms of evolution of CBEs, through integration of geology, physics (particularly the second law of thermodynamics), chemistry (particularly chemical reactions of CBEs), and biology (particularly the essence of reproduction, genomes, and natural selection). We hence establish the Carbon-Based Evolutionary Theory (CBET), which suggests that evolution is the increase in the amount, diversity, and fitness of higher-hierarchy CBEs under natural selection and driven by the organic synthesis tendency on the Earth from the thermodynamic features of the Earth. It provides better explanations for various evolutionary issues (e.g. life origin, neutral mutation, speciation, and evolutionary tempos) than existing evolutionary theories. It reveals the physiochemical roots of biological evolution and the evolutionary roots of multiple social notions important to harmonious development of human society. It refutes from a novel respect some incorrect thermodynamic notions regarding evolution (e.g. negative entropy). It hence removes contradictions between physiochemistry, biology, and social sciences, and bridges them through evolution. The CBET is reliable as per its deduction and applications. Therefore, the CBET is more scientific and comprehensive than existing evolutionary theories, and could have great significance in natural sciences and social sciences. Meanwhile, the CBET is open to optimization and extension.
Quantitative Evaluation of Asphalt Binder Extraction from Hot Mix Asphalt Pavement Using Ashing and Centrifuge Methods

Asphalt binder requires more investigation to be accurately and precisely extracted since it is a significant procedure for quality control quality assurance (QC/QA) and subsequent binder characterization. In this research, the authors provided a hands-on experience with binder extraction to deliver recommendations concerning the sensitive steps that may affect the outcomes (extracted binder content, Pbe%). Based on the extraction by the centrifuge method, two mineral matter determination methods (ashing and centrifuge) were addressed. Field cores were investigated with comparing the Pbe% to the actual binder content, Pba%. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey Post-Hoc statistical analyses, in addition to linear least square regression analysis, were used to show the significance of difference according to 38 variant cores randomly obtained from the field segments (in-service roads) via the first two weeks from the construction date. Such cores involved reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), reclaimed asphalt shingles (RAS), and a wide range of additives. The two extraction methods were compared with concluding that the centrifuge method was highly recommended based on a quantitative evaluation, which delivered the same average Pba% based on the 38 cores. Furthermore, the centrifuge method provided much saving in the experimental time (almost half the time required for the ashing method). It was found that the ashing outcomes were equal to the centrifuge outcomes with disregarding the ammonium carbonate addition. Thus, it could be recommended to reassess the ammonium carbonate addition as it might excessively compensate for fake minerals that have not been lost by the ignition oven.

Holistic information integrity for managing wicked problems, developing equity is getting attention. Artifitial intelligence based topologies, dual sensor-information nodes, are prototyped to offer more availability, reliability, maintainability for operating healthy urbanism. Bipartite spider-webs, cube-connected cycles are aimed in ‘the radial-ring urban-building skeleton’ and ‘wetlands and sparsely populated areas’, respectively. Furthermore, honeycomb tori, mathematical HT(m), m≥2, for tasks related to wireless communications, are found having two mutually independent Hamiltonian paths (MIHP). This parallelism creates dual cipher-coding, supports logistic privacy, and help prevent information loss, electromagnetic interference, unexpected changes caused by such as clogged water.
