Central Bank Digital Currency: A New Instrument of Monetary Policy
Authors: Kóczián Balázs , Kollarik András , Kiss Lóránt , Simon Péter
Published: December 2022

Central bank digital currency is a claim on the central bank, which is accessible by a wide range of customers, digital, flexible and potentially interest-bearing. The new asset is being researched in many countries, and widening the accessibility of financial services, creating the digitalized form of cash with monetary policy considerations being among its motivations. An interest-bearing central bank digital currency could make the central bank’s monetary transmission direct, which could improve the efficiency of monetary policy. Furthermore, the asset could help to strengthen competition among banks and could support the spread of financial innovations. Risks related to the instrument, such as disintermediation, can be counterbalanced by the increasing deposit volumes due to higher interest rates after the introduction of the instrument, and by limits set on the maximum holdings of the asset. An interest-bearing central bank digital currency can make targeted monetary policy possible, furthermore, the direct transmission of interest rates could enhance the efficiency of monetary transmission.
Monetary Sovereignty and Central Bank Digital Currency
Authors: Horváth Gábor
Published: December 2022

The effective monetary sovereignty of a state is the ability of the state to use monetary instruments to achieve its economic policy objectives. This notion goes beyond the conceptualisation of the traditional Westphalian sovereignty of interference-free discretion, which is necessary because of the hierarchical operational complexity of the fiat and credit money systems in the modern financial system. At the same time, the monetary challenges of the 21st century may also erode the effective monetary sovereignty of states, which can, however, be partially rescued through the introduction of digital central bank money. The paper therefore explores different areas of the impact of digital central bank money on effective monetary sovereignty, taking chartalist monetary theory as a starting point. It shows how central bank digital currency may achieve an improvement in these areas of effective monetary sovereignty.

Published: December 2022

The abolition of VAT exemption regarding negligible consignments has raised a variety of tax and customs management issues in terms of budget revenues both on the EU and domestic fronts. The abolition of VAT exemption below €22 in July 2021 has brought upon a completely new situation in the customs management of e-commerce from non-member countries to the EU. A review of the achievements and challenges of the past year, which also underpins the timeliness of our study, can contribute to further refinement and clarification of the system. The main focus of this research is to explore the customs experience with the new VAT regime for B2C e-commerce from third countries into the customs territory of the European Union, introduced from 1 July 2021, to identify the problems encountered in the past period and possible solutions. The article will use statistical data collected from the National Tax and Customs Administration to explore the characteristics of the past year and the main trends in turnover, and to identify the challenges and the solutions authorities can provide to them.
A mean field type differential inclusion with upper semicontinuous right-hand side
Authors: Averboukh Yu.V.
Published: December 2022

Mean field type differential inclusions appear within the theory of mean field type control through the convexification of a right-hand side. We study the case when the right-hand side of a differential inclusion depends on the state of an agent and the distribution of agents in an upper semicontinuous way. The main result of the paper is the existence and the stability of the solution of a mean field type differential inclusion. Furthermore, we show that the value function of the mean field type optimal control problem depends on an initial state and a parameter semicontinuously.

INTERDISCIPLINARIDADE ENTRE GEOGRAFIA E MATEMÁTICA EM PESQUISAS E PRÁTICAS ESCOLARES
Authors: Carvalho Mateus , Lima Yuri Farias , Grando Regina Célia
Published: December 2022

Este artigo busca investigar, por meio da revisão sistemática de literatura, a relação interdisciplinar entre a Geografia e a Matemática na Educação Básica brasileira utilizando artigos disponibilizados no Portal de Periódicos da CAPES. A interdisciplinaridade é defendida como ação pedagógica e perspectiva teórica.  Apresenta-se  uma revisão da literatura sobre o assunto, buscando bases teóricas a fim de compreender o conceito de interdisciplinaridade e assume-se aquele que mais se aproxima das práticas escolares. Foram analisados cinco relatos de experiência que vão ao encontro da interdisciplinaridade entre Geografia e Matemática, tendo como principais articuladores dessas disciplinas a Cartografia e a Estatística. Observou-se que, como, majoritariamente, não há discussão teórica sobre interdisciplinaridade, consequentemente, os resultados evidenciam uma prática mais próxima da abordagem tradicional do que uma prática inovadora. Entretanto, enfatiza-se a ousadia criativa dos professores em tentar promover um ensino mais significativo para os estudantes.
Investment mechanism for sustainable development of agricultural production
Authors: Danko Yuriy , Lagodiienko Natalia , Turlenko Natalya
Published: December 2022

Introduction. The lack of investment is one of the most essential problems, which slows down the progressive devel-opment of domestic agricultural production, reduces its competitiveness in the domestic and foreign markets, causes unjusti-fiably low share of the added value and raw materials of foreign trade in agri-food products. Finally, without sufficient investment, Ukrainian agricultural production is unable to enter the stage of sustainable development. However, the accu-mulation of destructive environmental and social factors, provided the use of traditional industrial technologies, may lead to catastrophic consequences in the field of agricultural production in the future.
The purpose of this article is to study the institutional mechanism for ensuring the sustainable development of ag-ricultural production.
Results. Granting the status of free economic zones for agricultural production to depressed rural areas of Steppe and Polissya agroclimatic zones can create a positive investment motivation for both small and large organizational forms to invest in agricultural production in the area. State programs of food aid to the poor, as well as replenishment and renewal of state material food reserves, can stimulate investment demand in the agricultural sector of the economy. The development of transport infrastructure will help reduce the cost and reduce the time of transportation of agri-food products. This will help attract investment in agriculture and industrial processing, and increase household amenities, cultural and medical services, transport links to the nearest administrative center and other similar transformations, can create favorable conditions for reviving the demographic potential of rural areas.
Conclusions. Investment policy in the framework of public-private partnership is a powerful tool for restoring con-fidence in the state and the implementation of large-scale infrastructure projects. In the order of priority, in our opinion, in the first place is the revival and development of social infrastructure in rural areas as well as the provision of advisory, consultative, informational and other training services to villagers.
Key words: agricultural production, investments, investment mechanism, sustainable development, investment defi-cit, State Land Bank.

Authors: Kaur Harpreet , Katyal Priya , Chandel Sumita
Published: December 2022

For the assessment of physicochemical and microbiological quality of Buddha Nallah the water samples were drawn from 7 different sites and analysed during winter (December 2020) and summer (May 2021) for most probable number, heterotrophic plate count, total coliform, fecal coliform, indicator, emerging pathogens and physicochemical parameters. A strong correlation was found among the indicator organisms (r= 0.504-0.898), while relatively weak or no correlation was found between indicator and emerging pathogens. Moreover, the correlation between indicator and emerging pathogens was found to be heavily dependent on physicochemical parameters. Cluster analysis successfully classified the different polluted sites based on physicochemical and microbiological parameters. The water quality index (WQI) score of all sites was found between 0-25 indicating poor water quality and emergency treatment is required for reuse. Based on present study results, it has been concluded that water of study area is highly polluted and pose serious health risk concerns due to presence of fecal and emerging pathogens in samples.

Published: December 2022

Morphological parameters are linked with the hydrological behaviour of the watershed. It helps to understand different basin characteristics. Characterization of quantitative morphology and river basin analysis is the way to implement proper river basin planning and management of soil and water conservation measures. In the present study, Cartosat-1 Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was used in Geographic Information System (GIS) environment to determine the morphometric parameters (stream length, stream order, stream frequency, bifurcation ratio, form factor, drainage density, circulatory ratio, etc.) of the Ranikhola watershed of Sikkim state, India. The slope of a major portion of the watershed area was found to be less than 30% (42 km2) and has a drainage density of 0.585 km-1. The lower value of drainage density in the watershed indicates a relatively lower streams frequency over the watershed. The elongation ratio, form factor, and circulatory ratio were estimated as 0.665, 0.347, and 0.510, respectively, which indicate that the watershed is elongated in shape, having gentle slopes and long flow paths. The relief ratio for the watershed was estimated to be 0.187, which indicates the watershed has a low elevation difference, low runoff, and high groundwater potential. This kind of morphometric analysis is required for the watershed characterization and helps to understand the hydrogeological behavior of the watershed.

Authors: Moi Susmita , Mandal Bappa , Pramanick Mahadev
Published: December 2022

An experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2019-20 with the objective of evaluating the effect of mulching and nutrient management practices on growth, yield and economics of maize (Zea mays L.) at Balindi Research Complex, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Nadia, West Bengal, India on clay loam soil. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with nine treatment (T) combinations such as T1- Live mulch (Trifolium alexandrium)+50% recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) [120:60:40 kg /ha N, P2O5 and K2O], T2- Live Mulch+75% RDF, T3- Live Mulch+100% RDF, T4- Straw Mulch (rice straw)+ 50 % RDF, T5- Straw Mulch+75% RDF, T6- Straw Mulch+100% RDF, T7- No Mulch+50% RDF ,T8- No Mulch+75% RDF and T9- No Mulch+100 % RDF,  replicated thrice. Experimental results revealed that different mulching and nutrient levels exerted significant influence on growth, yield, net return and benefit-cost ratio (B:C). Application of straw mulch+100% RDF (T6) resulted in the highest plant height (164.57 cm), grain yield (5.28   tonnes /ha), stover yield (7.65 tonnes/ha) and B: C (2.16), however, treatment T7 recorded the lowest grain and stover yield. So, the integrated application of straw mulch along with 100% RDF could be recommended for better yield and higher profit of Rabi maize. Integration of organic mulch might be useful for long-term soil health benefits for the nutrient exhaustive maize crop.

Published: December 2022

It is important to perform research to the degree that it is adequate to identify the features of the terrain composition, before, during, and after the building of facilities since predicting the behaviour of rock mass during tunnel construction is a complicated engineering challenge. Engineering research works in laboratories and in the field are of different scope and methodology during testing. In this paper, the established interdependencies of some of the basic parameters obtained during the testing of rock mass are presented: Edyn = f(Vp), Edyn = f(RMR) i Edyn = f(Q). Also, the relations between the engineering systems of rock mass classification and seismic primary waves are derived. RMR = f(Vp), Q = f(Vp). The relations were based on the examination of the rock mass for the construction needs of the tunnel on the Nis-Merdare highway. The results obtained in this study can be applied in environments that have similar lithological and structural characteristics.

Authors: Ruiz Chataing David
Published: December 2022

Nos aproximamos a la óptica sobre el régimen político, económico y social surgido en Venezuela luego de 1958 hasta su colapso en 1998. Sintetizamos la dura crítica formulada por los liberales a las políticas económicas de los gobiernos democráticos. Denuncian la mala administración de enormes recursos, la corrupción, la ineficiencia y el despilfarro. Junto al reconocimiento de que, a pesar de sus fallas, existió la democracia política, se señala la necesidad de reformas en el sentido de aumentar la representatividad, el control ciudadano, la descentralización, la plena vigencia del Estado de Derecho, el libre mercado y la responsabilidad individual.

Концепція сучасного університету передбачає запровадження змін в усі освітні процеси та комунікації. Багато авторів, які, акцентують на тому, що викладач — це вже не тільки людина, що навчає, транслятор знань, а коуч, тьютор, партнер у дослідженнях, модератор у дискусіях з важливих питань. Вимоги здобувачів також змінюються. Університет повинен знайти баланс між наданням фундаментальних знань вищої освіти у визначеній спеціальності та постійним оновленням сучасних знань і практичних навичок відповідно до потреб роботодавців. Крім того, методи та інструменти навчання також постійно змінюються. Серед таких змін — активне використання інформаційних освітніх технологій. Здавалось би, за наявності величезної кількості різноманітних платформ управління навчанням запровадження інструментів електронної системи не повинно бути проблематичним. Але досвід багатьох освітніх закладів свідчить про те, що це не так. Тільки комплексний системний підхід дасть змогу зменшити рівень фрагментарності використання електронних інструментів та створити ефективну електронну інформаційну екосистему.
Theoretical and Experimental Substantiation of the Nature of Interaction between Modified Binders and Wood

There are numerous methods for analyzing surface phenomena when bonding wood materials, mutual arrangement of pores in the wood substrate, and depth of liquid adhesive penetration into wood. Electron microscopic methods such as atomic force and scanning tunneling microscopy are used along with optical methods. They allow evaluating the influence of factors describing the interaction between the liquid adhesive molecules and the porous wood surface. Phenol formaldehyde resin modified with pectol and urea formaldehyde resin modified with lignosulfonates were used for substantiation of the interaction mechanism between modified adhesives and wood. Electron microscopy was used to study the depth of adhesive penetration into veneer. The plywood was produced using modified urea and phenol formaldehyde adhesives. After conditioning, samples with a thickness of 0.025 mm were cut out and examined with a scanning electron microscope. The article shows that the interaction between liquid phenol formaldehyde adhesive modified with pectol and wood results in a sequential increase in the molecular weight of the substances and, consequently, in the penetration degree (depth). The studied wood species (birch, pine and larch) and modified thermosetting urea and phenol formaldehyde adhesives are polar materials (adhesive interacts with wood molecules with the formation of intermolecular bonds, including hydrogen bonds). The molecular weight growth and the freely joined nature of the main chain (liquid modified adhesive macromolecules), which contains a large number of polar functional groups (adhesive and wood), promote intermolecular association. The formation of an adhesive bond between urea formaldehyde adhesive modified with lignosulfonates and wood occurs due to chemical interaction between hydroxyl groups of cellulose macromolecules and methoxyl groups of urea resin with the formation of esters (hydrogen atoms of hydroxyl groups OH are substituted with hydrocarbon radicals R). The formation of a bond between the adhesive and the wood surface is the result of molecular interaction forces at the liquid adhesive – wood interface, when the distance between molecules of the same polarity (adhesive and wood) is less than 0.5 nm. Then, adsorption equilibrium sets in. For citation: Rusakov D.S., Varankina G.S., Chubinsky A.N.

The research aims at assessing the influence of daytime and nighttime meteorological parameters (air temperature, dew point, relative air humidity, wind velocity and amount of precipitation) on the pine radial growth in the northern taiga subzone in blueberry, lingonberry and bush-sphagnum forest types. The study was carried out in the Arkhangelsk region near the Pinega settlement (northern taiga subzone). Sample plots were laid out in areas with different forest types specific for this territory. A total of 63 core samples were taken from 7 of the most representative sites. Meteorological parameters for 2008–2015 were collected by a digital weather station WMR918 H (Huger GmbH, Germany) located in the research area and operating in the monitoring mode. In blueberry pine forest, we have detected a high correlation of radial growth with air temperature and dew point in July (0.80–0.88), and even higher correlation with the night values of these parameters (0.90). Both direct and inverse correlations were found with wind velocities in May, June, and September: from 0.77 to 0.78 and from –0.84 to –0.79. An inverse correlation was observed in one of the sample plots with precipitation of May and June. Dependencies similar to the blueberry pine forest have been found in the lingonberry pine forest. A correlation with relative air humidity was found in the shrub-sphagnum forest type. Direct and inverse correlations of radial growth with wind velocity indicate its different influence on physiological processes in the leaf blade by cooling it and enhancing transpiration. Significant variability in the correlation in the blueberry forest type is probably caused by differences in the inventory parameters of the studied stands, and may also be a feature of blueberry pine forests. Generally, pine in the blueberry, lingonberry and shrub-sphagnum forest types has a similar response to the variability of meteorological factors, the main of which is the air temperature regime.

Recognizing non-native spoken words in background noise increases interference from the native language

Listeners frequently recognize spoken words in the presence of background noise. Previous research has shown that noise reduces phoneme intelligibility and hampers spoken-word recognition – especially for non-native listeners. In the present study, we investigated how noise influences lexical competition in both the non-native and the native language, reflecting the degree to which both languages are co-activated. We recorded the eye movements of native Dutch participants as they listened to English sentences containing a target word while looking at displays containing four objects. On target-present trials, the visual referent depicting the target word was present, along with three unrelated distractors. On target-absent trials, the target object (e.g., wizard) was absent. Instead, the display contained an English competitor, overlapping with the English target in phonological onset (e.g., window), a Dutch competitor, overlapping with the English target in phonological onset (e.g., wimpel, pennant), and two unrelated distractors. Half of the sentences was masked by speech-shaped noise; the other half was presented in quiet. Compared to speech in quiet, noise delayed fixations to the target objects on target-present trials. For target-absent trials, we observed that the likelihood for fixation biases towards the English and Dutch onset competitors (over the unrelated distractors) was larger in noise than in quiet. Our data thus show that the presence of background noise increases lexical competition in the task-relevant non-native (English) and in the task-irrelevant native (Dutch) language. The latter reflects stronger interference of one’s native language during non-native spoken-word recognition under adverse conditions.
