Formal nets like social organization are cited by 28% of them.The senior citizens perception about their skills and abilities to perform daily routines, was assessed in its relative importance in order to enhace personal autonomy and self-esteem. Accordingly it was found that 96% of them were able to perform the basic daily physical activities, 90% the basic social activities and 80% the instrumental activities.Key words: Seniors, Social Support, Aging poblation, Autonomy, Old age.
In search for the essence of ethnography
Authors: Wolcott Harry
Published: April 2023

In june 16, 2003 Harry Wolcott gave ";;The Bornemouth talk revisited for Medellín";; lecture. The talk deals with search for the essence of ethnography and answers the question ";;what makes a study ethnographic?";;The lecturer in his carreer has identified twelve attributes that can reasonably be expected in a ethnographic report. Therefore ethnography is holistc, compatative, of first- hand experience, conduced in natural setting, requires intimate and long- term acquaintance, is non evaluative, basically descriptive, specific, adaptive, corroborative and finally idiosyncratic and individualistic.All those attributes are discussed in the lecture with the warning that there is no absolute set of attributes. Then he could conclude that anyone can borrow the research techniques, and we all draw our data from everyday experience, both our own and of others. The result is far more likely to produce ethnography when a researcher sets out to create ethnography and has a clear idea of what is involved.Key words: Ethonography, Context, Ethnograpers, Qualitative Research.

Nevertheless, there are some because the orthodox use if the principles orienting this movement are from all points of view, incopatible with some of the espistamological principles which are the foundation of nursing practice-humanism, intersubjectivity, qualitative, researchand so on-But in adiction M B E has the seal of rationalist thinking very close to the logical positivism, it states that knowledge is based on proof and denies any other valid from of knowledge, whish means, taking it literally, a reductionism in nursing.The objective of this paper is to approach the M B E to nursing and to show that the model proposed by this movement, may and has to be interpreted with reflection and critic- and consequently one can structure nursing based on evidences, seeking batter quality of care and move satisfaction in patients and users of the health system, all these, of course, considering she cohesiveness of nursing. This focus may be a powerful instrument for the empowerment of nurses and to make visible its matapadigm. The paper revises the M B E, from its definition, origin and conceptual bases to its actual schema. Then, proposes a critical model adapted to nursing and the advantages obtained by nurses trough the scientific evidence.Key Words:Nursing based on evidence.Medicine based on evidence.

The model includes two LEDs with peak radiation wavelengths 660 nm and 940 nm and two photodiodes with peak sensitivity at 940 nm, interposing medium layer with air, water or silica glass parameters and seven skin layers. The modeling is executed by Monte-Carlo method for the cases of air, glass and water as interposing medium and its various width in range from 2 mm to 8 mm which is chosen due to the planned case construction. The energy fluxes ratio dependence on distance between the photodiodes and skin is evaluated and analyzed.
Navigating Regional Regime Complexity: How and Why Does the European Union Cooperate With Regional Organizations?
Authors: Panke Diana , Stapel Sören
Published: April 2023

The number of regional organizations in Europe has increased in the aftermaths of the Second World War and the Cold War. Whenever regional organizations share member states and are equipped with identical policy competencies at the same time, regime complexity comes into play. Unmanaged regime complexity has not only increased over time but can also bring about negative consequences that can reduce the effectiveness of regional governance. To address these challenges, regional organizations can turn into external actors and cooperate with each other. While some of these cooperation agreements are shallow, others are deep and differ in the specification of policy scopes, instruments, and designated arenas. Thus, we pursue the following research questions: (a) How frequently does the EU cooperate with other regional organizations in the regional regime complex? (b) How does the design of cooperation differ? We show that the EU is an active shaper of regime complexes, not only when it comes to constructing them in the first place, but also with respect to navigating complexity. The EU has entered formal cooperative agreements with most of the regional organizations with which it overlaps. The EU concluded many agreements because it possesses the necessary capacities and is able to speak with one voice externally. We show that the design of agreements is influenced by ideological distances with the other regional organizations.

The article highlights the peculiarities of language policy in education during the period of «stagnation». The author analyzes the legal acts related to the process of Russification of school education, in particular, the Resolution «On Further Improvement of Learning and Teaching of the Russian Language in the Union Republics» of June 1, 1978, the USSR Law «Fundamentals of the Legislation of the Union of the Soviet Socialist Republics and the Union Republics on Public Education» of July 19, 1973, the Resolution of the Ministry of Education of the Ukrainian SSR «On Additional Measures to Improve the Teaching of the Russian Language in National Secondary Schools» of May 26, 1983, etc. The state educational policy of the Soviet government contributed to an increase in the number of Russian-language schools and classes for in-depth study of the Russian language, the establishment of allowances for Russian language teachers, the introduction of advanced training courses for Russian language teachers, and an increase in the number of textbooks on academic subjects written in Russian. The author traces the dynamics of the number of schools with one and two languages of instruction in the Ukrainian SSR during the 1959-1965 academic years. The analysis of the number of schools with one language of instruction during the mentioned period shows a decrease in the number of schools with Ukrainian as the language of instruction by 1725 units. As for the schools with Ukrainian-Russian language of instruction, there was a tendency to increase them by 107 units, and the number of schools with Russian-Ukrainian language of instruction increased by 73 units. It was found that the Russification of the educational process also took place in higher education. It was accompanied by the teaching of academic subjects in Russian, the dissemination of Russian-language literature, and the conduct of admission campaigns mainly in Russian. In spite of Russification and assimilation, prominent figures of the national liberation movement campaigned by distributing leaflets among the population, in which they opposed the reduction of Ukrainian-language educational institutions and pressure on the Ukrainian language. In response, the Soviet leadership took measures aimed at persecuting and eliminating active public figures. The Russification policy of the Soviet authorities in the field of education led to a national and cultural upsurge of student youth, who, despite the threat of persecution, distributed self-published literature among the general Ukrainian population, which truthfully covered the Russification policy of the Soviet leadership, the assimilation of the cultural and spiritual values of the Ukrainian people.
Estructura e impacto territoriales de la pesca comercial ribereña en los puertos de la Reserva Estatal “El Palmar”, Yucatán (México) / Territorial structure and impact of commercial inshore fishing in the ports of El Palmar State Reserve, Yucatán (Mexico)
Authors: Crespo Guerrero José Manuel , Fuentes Bernal Alberto
Published: April 2023

La pesca a pequeña escala es una actividad económica que brinda alimentos nutritivos para la población y contribuye a la generación de riqueza. Actualmente, la pesca afronta desafíos como la sobreexplotación, la pesca ilegal, la contaminación marina y el cambio climático. Para superar estos desafíos, los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible 2030 trazan una agenda a 15 años y abogan por la protección del ambiente, la seguridad alimentaria y el crecimiento económico equilibrado. Bajo este panorama global, la investigación se compromete con dichos objetivos desde un contexto local, al develar la estructura y los impactos territoriales de la actividad pesquera comercial ribereña en los puertos de la Reserva Estatal El Palmar (47.931,45 ha): Celestún y Sisal (Yucatán, México). Las teorías de la organización espacial de la economía y el impacto territorial fundamentan esta investigación que se apoya en datos cuantitativos e información cualitativa. Los resultados reflejan el predominio de los impactos negativos como consecuencia de la falta de ordenación territorial de la actividad. Lo que pone en duda la sostenibilidad de la pesca ribereña en aquella área natural protegida.

Regional wave propagation in China and its surrounding regions
Authors: Rapine Richard R. , Ni James F. , Hearn Thomas M.
Published: April 2023

A comprehensive study of the gross characteristics of high-frequency seismic-wave propagation in China and its surrounding regions was accomplished to learn more about how regional geology affects high-frequency phases. Amplitudes of the regional seismic waves Sn and Lg relative to P coda were used to map lateral variations of shear-wave attenuation in the crust and upper mantle. Over 7000 digital seismograms from 13 broadband stations of the Chinese Digital Seismic Network and Global Seismic Network in the frequency range 0.5 to 5.0 Hz were visually examined. Propagation efficiencies of Sn and Lg were qualitatively analyzed by ranking their amplitudes relative to the P-wave coda. Efficient Sn propagation is observed in the Tien Shan, Tarim Platform, southern Tibet, Yangzi Paraplatform, and Sino-Korean Platform. We have confirmed results of previous studies by finding a lack of Sn transmission in north central Tibet, the Ryukyu and Japan Arcs, Burma, and the Baikal Rift. An important observation, which has not been previously reported, is that Sn does not propagate across Mongolia. The elimination of Sn and the occurrence of recent volcanism in north central Tibet and Mongolia suggest that there is partial melt in the uppermost mantle beneath those regions. High-frequency Lg waves propagate efficiently for most of China, Indochina, and Mongolia. Lg signals are attenuated within central Tibet as well as along its southern boundary. Crustal structure variations along with an anomalously low-Q crust are primarily responsible for weakened Lg amplitudes in Tibet. Propagation paths across oceanic crust in the Sea of Japan and the Andaman Sea show blockage of the Lg phase as well. This investigation has relevance to Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty monitoring by showing where certain regional phases will or will not propagate efficiently.
Inpatient Aggression Assessment in Pediatric Psychiatric Settings
Authors:   , Garnett Vera , Zuzelo Patti R
Published: April 2023

Patient's aggression in psychiatric settings is widespread. The Dynamic Appraisal of Situational Aggression -Youth Version (DASA-YV) is a validated scale used to appraise patient at risk of imminent aggression. The purpose of the Quality Improvement project was to determine if the use of the DASA-YV, compared with clinical judgment alone, help nurses identify patients and subsequently intervene. The setting is adjoining child and adolescent psychiatric units at an urban children's hospital. The Doctor of Nursing Practice Student Project Leader educated and trained nurses on the scale's purpose, how to score and interpret, and use the final rating to select interventions. Nurses were given a pre and post-test after education and training to assess knowledge of the scale and evaluate learning. The Model of Improvement implemented through a Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle was used as the framework. Nurses provided feedback and completed a post-project, nine-item survey questionnaire, measured on a 5-point Likert scale, ranging from Strongly Disagree (1) to Strongly Agree (5) that described nurses' level of agreement on the helpfulness of the DASA-YV. Demographic data, on each nurse participant, was collected. The results showed majority of nurses (n=4) agreed that the DASA-YV helped them better identify patient at risk of aggressive behavior and with selection of interventions, but 50% were neutral on the DASA-YV predicts aggressive behavior greater than clinical judgment alone. The DASA-YV is an easy scale to use as an adjunct to Psychiatric Nurses' clinical judgment in assessing patients at imminent risk of aggressive behavior.
A Quantitative Study

Published: April 2023

As organizational leadership continues to focus on personalized approaches, organizations' need for understanding employees on an individualized level heightens. Within organizational research, intrapersonal skills have demonstrated connections to employees' performance; concurrently, they have also been empirically linked to attachment styles, which emphasize the role and impacts of childhood-formed schemas in adult life, outside of organizational contexts. Although attachment styles and their impacts on interpersonal relationships have been examined in organizational contexts, their application to intrapersonal skills is empirically limited. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine the relationship between attachment styles and employees' self-efficacy, as it relates to novel tasks in the workplace. It was guided by the following research questions: 1.) Are there significant patterns of self-efficacy present when employees encounter and engage in novel work tasks? 2.) Is there a significant relationship between attachment style and employees' self-efficacy, as it pertains to novel work tasks? 3.) Does attachment style significantly impact employees' self-efficacy, when they encounter and engage in novel work tasks? By studying the role of attachment styles and their influence on self-efficacy within organizational contexts, this researcher aimed to provide insights and recommendations for leaders in their pursuits of employee developmental, organizational change, and personalized leadership practices. Full-time staff and faculty members from a school within a four-year higher education institution were invited to complete an anonymous questionnaire, combining two instruments that assess attachment and creative self-efficacy. The quantitative design utilized various forms of analysis of variance, as well as t-tests, as the primary statistical measures to examine differences and potential relationships within data. Only one significant finding was found, contradicting existing research and suggesting that mediating factors and influencing aspects of the study's design may have affected the data. Recommendations for practice are based on these potential mediators, as well as in existing research, and include further learning of attachment theory, examining the frequency of employees' exposure to novel tasks, and evaluating the perceived and actual support given to employees. Additionally, expanding the target population, replacing the self-efficacy instrument, and isolating organizational culture as a mediating factor are suggested for future research directions.

Published: April 2023

Assessment of diet bedside and in the community is crucial for the management and prevention of various ailments. Recommended dietary allowances and nutritional requirements of humans is a growing science that keeps changing, hence medical fraternity needs to be updated. ICMR-NIN are the nodal agencies in India for refining and reformulating dietary needs as per the nutritional transition occurring globally. They have published Nutrient Requirements for Indians: Recommended Dietary Allowances and Estimated Average Requirements - A Report of the Expert Group 2020, consisting of vital changes which are developed to satisfy the needs of the healthy population, keeping in view the reduction of disease risk and maintaining optimal health of the population. Most textbooks of community medicine have not yet adopted the newer recommendations and it is crucial that current students follow the paradigm shift which has happened in nutritional needs. The twenty-four-hour (24 hr) semi-quantitative dietary recall method is the preferred dietary assessment method at the bedside and community due to its less administration time and usability even on illiterates. It is considered the best method when there is no patience or motivation to answer food-related questions. Here is an attempt to compile and simplify all required information for dietary assessment from reliable sources in one place which empowers healthcare professionals to perform a dietary assessment.
Impact of biological evidences on DNA profiling of sexual assault cases
Authors: Pal Surender Kumar , Kumari Vinita , Devi Nisha
Published: April 2023

The identification of perpetrator involved in crime becomes difficult due to lack of evidence. Biological evidence plays an integral role in establishing link between survivor, suspect, and the scene of crime. The era of eye witness is almost diminished and DNA analysis is necessary for the identification of perpetrator. The loss or degradation of biological traces due to urinating, defecating, douching of genitals, showering and delay in medico-legal examination may yield negative results.

The objective of study was to link DNA profiles generated from biological samples to associate suspect with survivor and other parameters affecting the results of DNA profiling.

This present study was conducted in the Biology & Serology Division of Regional Forensic Science Laboratory, Northern Range, Dharamshala and DNA Division of State Forensic Science Laboratory, Himachal Pradesh, Junga, India. A total of 142 sexual assault cases received for examination during the year 2018 and 2019 were studied.

Human spermatozoa were detected in 39 (27.46%) cases and genetic profiles were generated. Spermatozoa were detected even after taking bath and washing of clothes in 3 (2.11%) cases. 10 (7.04%) survivors were menstruating at the time of assault. Hymen was absent in 43 (30.28%) cases followed by old healed tags in 37 (26.06%), recent tears in 15 (10.56%), intact in 9 (6.34%) and partially ruptured in 4 (2.82%) cases. Out of 39 cases, DNA profile resulted as an inclusion of assailant in 27 (19.01%) cases and exclusion in 12 (8.45%) cases. The persistence of spermatozoa on vaginal swabs was found up to 4 days. Only 18 (12.68%) survivors underwent medico-legal examination on first day of assault.

The findings clearly showed that early medico-legal examination is of paramount importance to avoid the potential loss of evidence, which directly affects the results of DNA profiling.

Childhood immunizations have been claimed to be the most appropriate and effective technology for child survival. Determination of the degree of care giver’s satisfaction towards immunization will provide evidence as to whether or not the right immunization services are being provided.

A cross-sectional study was conducted in the immunization clinic attached to tertiary care institute. Care giver’s (Mother, or accompanying person) of children aged up to 5 years visiting immunization clinic were included in the study. Proforma contained details of socio- demographic profile of care giver and satisfaction of care giver towards immunization services received at immunization clinic. Study was conducted for a period of two weeks in October 2019. Data was collected by using standard proforma from the guide for conducting an Expanded Programme on Immunisation (EPI) Review. By adopting convenient sampling, total of 75 responses of caregiver’s were recorded. The data collected was compiled and statistical analysis was done using SPSS 20.

The study revealed that maximum mother’s (57.3%) accompanied children as caregiver’s for immunization in the clinic. Complete satisfaction with registration process was seen in 14.7% of respondents. As regards to vaccination services in the immunisation clinic 17.3% of caregiver’s were somewhat satisfied while 46.7% were neutral about the vaccination services.

In our study most of the caregiver’s were satisfied with registration process, seating arrangement ,attitude of service provider and waiting time. But dissatisfaction was still observed in our study.
Quantifiable objective psychopathology via cognitive neuropsychiatry: A hybrid-study Part I
Authors: Raju Venkateshwarla Rama
Published: April 2023

Cognitive neuropsychiatry (C.N.P) embodies a logical and hypothetically driven method to justify scientific(i.e., clinical) psychopathologies regarding discrepancies to usual mental—mind mechanisms. An involvement through neuronal (neuronic) substrates-of-impaired cognitive processes connects CNP to the fundamental-neuroscience. The advent of C.N.P.3 decades ago(~1990) demonstrates the increasing reconciliation among C.N.P, objective medicine, also neurosciences in tackling widespread issues regarding misperceptions or uncertainties of the mental, mind, and mental illness of neurobiology and brain. So, we focus how this trans-discipline will make a unique and distinct role to psycho pathology. The aim is to get the innovative idea-of-scientific union which occur amid the cognitive-neuroscience plus psychiatry, plus to demonstrate by what means this union has started to offer a novel mental (neurobiology-based) reasoning policy with which we comprehend better psychiatric situations. This study is trying to link the disparity among cognition as well as neuroscience by 1. forming efficient association of psychiatric disorders in a structure-of-human CNP, then connecting the structure(framework) to appropriate brain—structures also pathos physiology. CNP timely offers the basis for a scientific psychiatric, disorders surrounded by the outline of human CNP and their psychopathology.

Published: April 2023

β – thalassemia major is a chronic inherited blood disorder requiring lifelong treatment including blood transfusion, putting tremendous burden on caregivers of the affected children. Aims were to measure the burden of care, prevalence and severity of depression and anxiety, and their association with various socio-demographic and illness related factors in caregivers of children with β – thalassemia major.

A cross-sectional study was conducted on 100 caregivers of children suffering from β – thalassemia major coming to the Paediatrics department of S.S.G. Hospital, Vadodara. Study tools used were Zarit Burden Interview, General Health Questionnaire-28, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of mental disorders (fifth edition) diagnostic criteria for depressive disorders and generalised anxiety disorder, Hamilton Depression and Anxiety Rating Scales.

Forty seven (47%) caregivers had moderate to severe burden of care. Fifty four (54%) caregivers screened positive for having psychiatric morbidity out of which thirty five (35%) had depressive disorders and fourteen (14%) had generalised anxiety disorder. 24 (68.6%) and 9 (64.3%) had moderate to severe depression and anxiety respectively. Burden of care and depression were significantly associated with lower income and those requiring blood transfusions every 2 weeks or less.

Thalassemia has its impact not only on the patients but also on the mental health of their caregivers leading to high levels of depression, anxiety and burden of care in them. They should be routinely screened for depression and anxiety to provide adequate mental health care to these individuals.
Armenian Apostolic and Russian Orthodox Churches in 1917—1945: Common Fates and Origins of the Renewal of Interfaith Relations
Authors: Blokhin Vladimir
Published: April 2023

The article summarizes the results of a comparative study of the situation of the Armenian Apostolic and Russian Orthodox Churches in 1917—1945. Methodologically, the research is based on the theory of the dialogue of cultures, which is necessary for understanding and evaluating the current stage of Russian-Armenian relations, understanding the role of interethnic and interreligious cooperation of both states in the post-Soviet space. The study revealed a significant similarity in the fate of the Armenian and Russian churches in the context of the unfolding anti-religious policy during the 1920s and 1930s, which was reflected in the reduction of dioceses, the closure of churches, the arrests of clergy, the emergence of church renewal structures both in the Soviet Russia and in Soviet Armenia. Both churches have gone through the stage of temporary absence of patriarchal administration; Armenian dioceses in the Soviet Russia and Orthodox churches in the Armenian SSR have actually ceased their activities. It is established which events of 1944—1945. they contributed to the resumption of inter-church ties lost in previous decades.
“Achaemenid Peace”: A Historiographical Construct and Achaemenid Imperial Ideology
Authors: Rung Eduard
Published: April 2023

The article deals with the historiographical construct of the “Achaemenid Peace”, referred to by modern researchers as Pax Achaemenica (alternative designation — Pax Achaemenidica) and Pax Persica (alternative designation — Pax Persiana) by analogy with Pax Romana and Pax Augusta. Through consideration of research concepts, it is concluded that there is something in common between the concepts of Pax Achaemenica and Pax Persica, this is the idea that the Persian Empire was based on the cooperation of the Persians with the conquered peoples, however, the discrepancy between the researchers raises the question of whether how the Persians themselves saw relations with other peoples, and also what impact the Persian conquest had on the vision of the conquered peoples of their relationship with the Persians as conquerors. The article also examines the Achaemenid ideology of world domination based on their perception of the “imperial political space” under Cyrus the Great and Darius I. The final parts of the article are devoted to the study of the concept of “peace” in the Achaemenid ideology. Attention is drawn to the fact that Cyrus the Great followed the perception of the Peace in Mesopotamia, according to which the Peace was established by the conquerors after their military victories. However, already Darius I perceived Peace as a consequence of maintaining political stability in the Achaemenid Empire as part of his idea of establishing happiness and prosperity for all his numerous subjects.
Traditions and Interpretations of the Ancient Theater in Post-Revolutionary Petrograd
Authors: Kulishova Oksana
Published: April 2023

The attention to the ancient drama characterized European culture at the turn of the 19—20th centuries was reflected in Russia in the search for new forms in theatrical art both at the very beginning of the 20th century and after the events of 1917. The author focuses on the most remarkable performances of Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex in 1910s in St. Petersburg/Petrograd at the Ciniselli Circus: in 1911 this Greek tragedy was staged by the famous German director Max Reinhardt, and in 1918 renewed by the famous Russian actor Yury Yuriev. The analysis of the important sources — the memoirs of participants and eyewitnesses of these performances, reviews and various publications in theater magazines, as well as surviving archival materials, etc. — makes it possible to trace the features of the interpretation and reception of this tragedy, which was especially consonant with the turbulent era of world cataclysms and wars.
Antiochos I, the Rēš Temple and Hellenistic Uruk: Commentary on YOS 20. 87
Authors: Berzon Katherine
Published: April 2023

The article concerns with the Late Babylonian text YOS 20. 87 which contains valuable information on the building of the Rēš Temple in Early Seleukid Uruk. The chronology of the text covers the period from 290 to 275 B. C. that corresponds to the time of Antiochos I’s coregency and the first years of his sovereign reign. There was a number of “instructions” (ṭēmu) regarding the building of Bīt Rēš, one of them seems to be the letter of Antiochos himself. The king apparently supported this initiative although he most likely did not personally participate in it. The mention of Queen Apama, mother of Antiochos and the first wife of Seleukos I, in YOS 20. 87 indicates that c. 290 B. C. she was probably alive and together with her son contributed to the building the Rēš Temple. Kidin-Anu, the āšipu priest of Anu, can be identified with the chief priest (šešgallu) of Bīt Rēš known from several Late Babylonian ritual texts. The evidence finds a parallel in so-called Uruk prophecy which may also contain allusions to the first Seleukids. All these sources provide an important evidence on the early stage of the history of the Rēš Temple. It also demonstrates that royal patronage of the first Seleukids (especially Antiochos I) was not limited only to Babylon and Borsippa.
Ancient Slavery in Soviet Historiography of 1950—1970s
Authors: Karpyuk Sergey
Published: April 2023

By the mid-1950s, the theme of the “slave revolution” in antiquity had lost relevance, ceased to be considered the “main” topic for Soviet historians of the ancient world. This was evidenced by the disappearance of works on this subject from the capital’s publications, and quite critical responses to the works of A. V. Mishulin. It was necessary to choose a new “main” theme. The importance of the topic of slavery in antiquity for Soviet science was due to the “socio-economic basis” of the study of the history of the ancient world (i.e. “slave-owning formation”), and opposition to “bourgeois science”, which, according to Soviet scientists, underestimated the importance of slavery in antiquity. A series of monographs “Studies on the history of slavery in the ancient world” and the publication of articles in the “Journal of Ancient History” in the section “Materials and research on the history of slavery” showed the potential of Soviet historical science, provoked a response abroad. However, interest in research on slavery in the USSR has been steadily declining since the second half of the 1960s, and in the 1980s it almost died out. Studies on the history of slavery in the ancient world were too “ideological” and therefore ceased to be of interest, especially for young Soviet historians.
Klavdia Starkova and the Beginning of the Study of Qumran Manuscripts in the USSR
Authors: Metel Olga
Published: April 2023

The author of this article reconstructs the scientific biography of the Leningrad semitologist-Hebraist K. B. Starkova and shows her role in the formation of Soviet Qumran studies. The source of this research consists of the scientific works of K. B. Starkova and her colleagues devoted to the analysis of Qumran texts, sources of personal origin of Soviet Orientalists, and documents deposited in the personal fund of K. B. Starkova in the Archive of Orientalists of the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts of the Russian Academy of Sciences (office documents, correspondence materials, drafts scientific works, etc.). Based on the above materials and taking into account the general context of the development of Qumran studies in the USSR and beyond, the author of this article concludes that K. B. Starkova not only translated into Russian some manuscripts of the Dead Sea, but also showed the crucial importance of Deuteronomy for the formation of Qumran literature, while offering her own reading of the image of the Righteous Mentor (or the Teacher of Righteousness). At the same time, her research was devoid of the defining influence of Soviet Marxism, although the general approach to the analysis of manuscripts partly corresponded to the general Soviet trend towards the study of social processes in the ancient world.

Authors: Nikishchenkova M. A.
Published: April 2023

The article deals with the issue of correlation between regional and federal lawmaking as an object of theoretical understanding. The relevance of the topic in modern conditions is substantiated. The problems of identifying the plurality of principles of regional lawmaking, their relationship with the principles of lawmaking at the level of formation of federal legislation are analyzed. The author substantiates the position according to which the unity of the national legal system and the two-level systems of legislation presuppose the unity of the principles of lawmaking. The law-making of the subjects is the specifics of Russia as a federal state. The article presents the positions of researchers on the role of delegated regional lawmaking and advanced regional lawmaking. The practical experience of advanced regional lawmaking in the context of the spread of coronavirus infection COVID-19 is summarized. The actual task of the study is to determine the regional lawmaking, its role and place in the unified legal system of the Russian Federation.
Involvement of a specialist in modern criminal law practice
Authors: Tarasov A. A.
Published: April 2023

The improvement of regulatory framework for attracting a specialist to participate in criminal proceedings on the initiative of the defense and other participants in the process who do not have authority is reasonably considered in theory and in practice as an extension of the adversarial principles in the procedures for the use of special knowledge. At the same time, the noticeable bias observed in modern law practice towards the use of expert opinions and testimony in the interests of principals to the detriment of lawyer activity in official procedures for the appointment and production of forensic examinations cannot be considered justified. Seeking the help of a specialist is not an equivalent substitute for participation in forensic expert activities in criminal cases, but rather a forced measure when attempts by a lawyer to participate in the appointment and production of examinations were impossible, or were undertaken, but failed.
Legal aspects of interaction between the President of the Russian Federation and the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation
Authors: Kabulov S. L.
Published: April 2023

The article analyzes topical issues of interaction between the President of the Russian Federation and the upper house of the Russian parliament within the framework of the system of separation of powers, taking into account the changes introduced by the Law of the Russian Federation on the amendment to the Constitution of the Russian Federation as of March 14, 2020 № 1-FKZ. The author focuses on the expansion of the personnel powers of the Federation Council, as well as changing the procedure for its formation. The idea is substantiated that amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation contribute to the improvement of the system of checks and balances, including by strengthening the role of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation. The powers of the President, arising from the difference in the constitutional functions of the head of state and parliament, basically and most importantly do not compete with the powers of a representative body. The Constitution makes a clear distinction between their powers, based on the principle of separation of powers. At the same time, the powers of the President in the sphere of relations with the parliament allow us to consider the head of state as an indispensable participant in the legislative process. The author proposes a number of changes aimed at improving relations between the President and the Federation Council in the exercise of their statutory powers.

Implementing marketing strategies is crucial for hospitality organisations to reach their target markets and improve their performance and competitive advantage. Hence, this study examines the impact of various trending marketing strategies on the restaurant industry's competitiveness among Gen Z consumers. Using the asset-process-performance (APP) framework, this research involves six measured constructs: service robots, social media, online advertisements, website experiences, brand love and competitiveness. The samples of 301 survey questionnaires were collected from Gen Z consumers in the restaurant industry. Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) was used to conduct this study's data analysis. Based on the findings, service robots, social media, online advertisements, website experiences, and brand love demonstrated a significant impact on the restaurant industry's competitiveness among Gen Z consumers. Further, the research provides practical implications by better understanding Gen Z consumers, implementing appropriate marketing strategies accordingly, and impacting practice in the restaurant industry.
Prospects and Threats of Groundwater Development for Town Water Supply and Irrigation Development in Rift Valley Plains
Authors: E Assefa , A Tenalem , A Tilahun
Published: April 2023

This work presents prospects and threats of groundwater development for town water supply and irrigation development in rift valley plains. The Becho alluvial plain gets recharge from rainfall, floods from dendritic stream networks and groundwater transfers from adjacent basins. Recharge estimation from two base flow separation methods indicated that the plain is getting an annual recharge of 89.8 mm. There are cyclic rain shortages every three to four years. The poor rainfall seasons record nearly half of the best rainfall seasons. Abstraction and water levels in Becho plain are in the region of 25,000 m3/day and 10 meters, respectively. But these are each less than ten folds of that in the adjacent Akaki basin. Steady and transient state groundwater flow modelling of a basin hosting the Becho and Akaki catchments showed that the former is nearly in steady state while the latter is under excessive mining. Time series of well water level measurements, base flow separation and transient groundwater flow modeling suggest that the Becho plain has potential for motorized irrigation and ground water development under regulated situations. However, in the face of lower transmissivity and storage coefficients, utmost care is needed to minimize propagation of groundwater level decline from adjacent Akaki wellfield.
