Authors: Jameaba Muyanja-Ssenyonga
Published: December 2022

One of the challenges financial institutions is how to adapt to a changing business environment, increasingly demanding and differentiated customer preferences, digitalization and technological change. Using a documentary analysis approach, the article navigates the ramifications of API based open banking, Block Chain Technology (BCT) and entrance of Fintechs, Bigtechnology companies (Bigtechs) and Telecommunications companies (Telcos on the performance of general banking sector and financial system stability. Results underscore the role of digitalization revolution and ICT in fundamentally changing the financial service development and delivery, by empowering ICT savvy non-financial institutions including financial technology companies (Fintechs), TELCOS, and Bigtechs to become players in the industry; enhancement of financial inclusion thanks; reduction in transaction costs; and inducing traditional banks to adopt new business models that leverage Big Data and data analytics approach. Digitalization has paved way for the development of agile, adaptive open banking supporting business models financial that supported collaboration with other providers of financial services, back end and front end technologies, diversified customer base, strengthened capacity and capabilities to leverage customer experience , develop and deploy financial innovations to strengthen competitiveness. Nonetheless, despite its many benefits, most banks are yet to adopt BCT due to persisting uncertainty that surrounds the technology a, its adoption, deployment and operations. BCT adoption has been undermined by an array of failures of several BCT based crypto exchanges and assets, limited understanding of BCT business case, regulatory ambiguity, and risk aversion. The adoption of BCT promises improvement in the integrity and authenticity of financial service delivery, reduction in vulnerability to cyber insecurity, decentralized authentication, increased operational efficiency, low compliance cost, shorter onboarding of new product offers and customers, accelerated development and deployment of new product offers 1 , which should diversify and broaden liability sources and investment portfolios. Failure to adopt and deploy both business processes and products on BCT poses the danger of empowering new entrants into financial service development and delivery. Traditional banks reluctance to adopt emerging technologies threatens their both their interest and non-earning income sources, ability to provide monetary policy transmission function, providing customer wealth custodianship services, serving financial payments and money supply transmission functions, and serving as lynchpin in financial system liquidity. The article highlights challenges and pathways to mitigating them in such a manner that improves bank performance without undermining financial system stability.

Published: December 2022

The main goal of this paper is to select a set of indicators suitable for evaluating public health efficiency and well-being in Italian provinces. A preliminary model is then proposed for this evaluation based on several relevant indicators, selected from a careful bibliographic review. Those indicators are divided into seven dimensions which then constitute the provincial index of well-being and a mix of input-output which determine the effectiveness and the efficiency of public health. The work begins with a critical review of the literature and analysis of known concepts, methods, tools, and models of measurement of public health efficiency and provincial index of well-being to extract relevant indicators. The most suitable indicators are then grouped to form the basis of a preliminary model for evaluating the impact of public health efficiency on well-being in Italian provinces. My findings will help public health service managers make sound decisions in their attempt to improve the efficiency of the entire national health service through public health, the implementation of competitiveness between public and private health service providers and, finally the well-being of individuals and their community.

Published: December 2022

The purposeof the article is to identify the types of interaction between the national mass culture of the 60–80s, represented by vocal and instrumental ensembles and folk music, and to determine the trends in its development during this period. The research methodology is based on the systematic analysis of domestic pop of the 1960-80's. The descriptive approach provides the disclosure of the most complete picture of Ukrainian pop, which allows different approaches to the problems of its evolution in the author's, performer's, educational, and entertainment context.Scientific novelty. The most complete systematisation of the music of national VIЕ in the context of interaction with folklore (by years of releasing albums, singles), for the first time a list of pop arrangements of Ukrainian folk songs by the most famous ensembles is presented. Besides, the general tendency of penetration of folk song and dance intonations into author's compositions is covered. The combined types, namely the use of author's music and folk poetry and vice versa in one work, are shown. It is proven that the regional factor is not localised in the music of certain ensembles, but is common to many, arrangements of songs of different regional origin are found in the music of ensembles from all regions of Ukraine. Conclusions. The period of the 60s and 80s in Ukrainian popular culture is significant in terms of new approaches to authorship and performance. It is then that it becomes mass. This is the time of the birth of professional pop education, the function of which was partially performed by Ukrainian ensembles, experience in ensembles provided professional skills of performers. Folk music culture has become an integral part of the repertoire of bands in the form of pop arrangements, genre stylisations. Orientation to folklore is demonstrated by all well-known ensembles of that period, the range of folk songs processed by pop musicians is significantly expanding. There is a total renewal of all means of expression associated with the development trends of European pop culture, to which the national fully belongs.

Authors: Zhurba Volodymyr , Zhurba Yanina
Published: December 2022

The purpose of the article is identifying the harmonic and functional characteristics of the main elements of jazz harmony, namely the harmonic progression II–V. To achieve the goal of the article, the following research methods were used: comparative (for a comparative analysis of the harmonious functionality of academic and jazz music); method of musicological analysis (for musicological analysis of jazz standards); method of stylistic analysis (to identify the stylistic characteristics of certain styles of jazz music); method of generalization (to summarize the study). Scientific novelty. In the presented scientific work, for the first time in Ukrainian musicology, an attempt was made to theoretically comprehend the functional connections within the framework of the harmony of jazz music. Conclusions. Harmonic formula II–V is the single functional link of jazz harmony, the main characteristic of which is the dominant functionality. Since the phenomenon of dominance is the main impetus for the implementation of musical development, the harmonic progression II–V is not only the main harmonic formula, but also a leading element of the harmonious development of jazz music. This statement is an impulse to rethink harmonious functionality in the context of jazz music and, in particular, to understand the function of harmonic progression II–V, which will lead to a fuller and deeper understanding of jazz music by its performers and, consequently, listeners.
Key words: jazz music, harmony, functionality, harmonic progression II–V

Cultural-Historical Background of New Ukrainian Theater Creation (End of XIX – Beginning of XX Century)
Authors: Sokolenko Nataliia
Published: December 2022

The purpose of the work is to generalise the main factors influencing the development of the new Ukrainian theatre at the turn of the 19th-20th centuries. The research methodology is based on the use of the following methods: comparative-analytical, cultural, and source studies. The scientific novelty of the study consists in a comprehensive study and generalisation of the main cultural and historical prerequisites for the creation of a new Ukrainian theatre in a certain historical period. Conclusions. The cultural and historical prerequisites for the creation of a new Ukrainian theatre are mainly related to the social and political situation in which the Ukrainian nation was during the struggle for independence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Based on the research of Ukrainian theatre experts, it has been concluded that the prerequisites for the creation of a new Ukrainian theatre were changes in the political situation in the Ukrainian territories at the end of the 19th century, namely the reform policy of the 1860s and 1870s, the abolition of serfdom, judicial reform, educational reform, land and city reforms, and repression of the Ukrainian people, in particular regarding Ukrainian culture. Oppression of the Ukrainian language and culture could not restrain the development of the general theatre process, which led to the creation of the first Ukrainian-language theatre companies, such as the company of H. Ashkarenko, M. Kropyvnytskyi, M. Sadovskyi, and M. Starytskyi, which became the foundation for the formation of a new Ukrainian theatre

Postmodernism Era in the Context of Metanarrative Settings
Authors: Shevchenko Daria
Published: December 2022

The purpose of the article is to determine the key ideas and attitudes of the era of postmodernism in the context of the rejection of metanarratives. The research methodology consists in the application of methods of analysis and synthesis, systematisation of facts, comparison, and generalisation of research outcomes. The scientific novelty lies in an attempt to understand the transformative changes of the key ideas of postmodern era and to mark the role of metanarratives in the context of the concepts of ideal, truth, and universality. Conclusions. Postmodernism has found alternative ways of spiritual growth. Besides, new forms of relations between people and society have been built. Postmodernism has «rehabilitated» the previous cultural and artistic tradition, which was actively destroyed during the 20th century: realism, academicism, and classicism. Postmodernism combined the experience of the past with the experience of the present; it can be seen as a change in cultural periods. However, mutual reflection of similarities and repetitions have displaced the categories of metanarratives (objectivity, reality, truth, universality, and ideal). Thus, Jean-Francois Lyotard, postmodernist thinker, and French poststructuralist philosopher defined postmodernism as distrust of metanarratives. The term «metanarrative» replaced the concept of «philosophy of history». Metanarratives linked historical events into a single story that had spanned long periods. The use of the term «metanarrative» in the era of postmodernism indicated the emergence of a new way of understanding history, culture, and art in accordance with the postmodern concept of truth.

Key words: postmodernism, cultural transformation, simulacrum, parodic approach, happening, metanarrative.

Authors: Konyukova Iryna , Sydorovska Evgeniia
Published: December 2022

The purpose of the study is to reveal the peculiarities and trends of the development of intercultural communications in the context of the specifics of the space of social networks at the current stage. Research methodology. The method of comparative analysis is applied (to consider the interaction of cultures in the traditional space and the space of social networks); analysis of open sources of information, which are information resources on the Internet (to identify the mechanisms of formation of cultural borders, as well as their overcoming). Scientific novelty. The specifics, forms, and functions of intercultural interaction in social networks have been studied; the nature and trends of the development of intercultural communications in social networks at the beginning of the third decade of the 21st century have been revealed. Conclusions. Modern network communications (especially social networks) are a universal socio-cultural mechanism that arose as a result of the genesis and functioning of culture in interaction with social parameters, in which the use of information and communication technologies creates conditions for easy overcoming of cultural boundaries. Social networks, which are represented by web applications that allow people to interact with each other, provide an environment for sharing all types of content created by other media tools. They are an effective tool for the development of intercultural communication, as they provide a person with the opportunity not only to communicate freely, but also to discover intercultural values for yourself and easily adapt to them. Social media tools that cultivate cross-cultural communication are expanding and diversifying every day. In addition to the usual use of Facebook and other similar popular applications, many users communicate through microblogs and new applications. Because of the organic development of social networks, the concept of sustainable intercultural dialogue was formed: users get the opportunity to solve their own problems within the boundaries of another culture quite effectively, make friends faster, follow various events in a certain socio-cultural space, to be a part of cultural values, and to adapt.

Historical Identity in the Coordinate System of World Development
Authors: Gerchanivska Polina
Published: December 2022

The aim of the work is to analyse the systemic characteristics of historical identity as a scientific category and to comprehend its substantive core on the basis of the paradigm that dominates in a particular historical period. The research methodology is based on the fundamental principles of historical and cultural studies analysis. The conceptual methodological core of the research is the system analysis of identity as a complex hierarchical system, self-developing in the chronotype. The scientific novelty lies in the conceptualisation of the phenomenon of historical identity from the standpoint of its temporality in the context of the acceleration of identification processes. The invariant and variable nature of the phenomenon has been revealed. Conclusions. Based on the memorial paradigm of the continuity of history in its correlation with time, it has been shown that historical identity is a sociology-cultural construct, the key mechanism for the formation of which is the dichotomy of «memory-oblivion».

Key words: historical identity, collective identity, memory, oblivion, temporality.

Authors: Sysova Yuliia
Published: December 2022

The goal of the work. The current situation of the Ukrainian library business has worsened significantly as a result of the Russian military aggression, which caused huge human, economic, and cultural losses to Ukraine. The main goal is to analyse the search and use of current possibilities of library fundraising during military operations on the territory of Ukraine. The methodology of writing the article lies in the use of general scientific methods of research: analysis, synthesis, deduction, and induction. In addition, with the help of the axiological method, the change of paradigms in the perception of modern libraries has been traced. Scientific novelty is in determination and selection of ways to implement the little-studied issues of the peculiarities of fundraising work in library affairs during hostilities and martial law. The results of the article will be useful for determining the main directions of work for the future reconstruction of Ukraine's infrastructure. In particular, the problems of the functioning of libraries in wartime conditions are considered in detail, and an analysis of the debatable issues that have been discussed at the round tables is given. Special attention is paid to the study of the activities of the "Library Country" charity fund and other relevant projects in which foreign partners have taken part. Conclusions. The effectiveness of franchising tools for the operation of libraries, providing assistance to librarians and collections affected by the full-scale aggression of Russia has been established. In particular, this was done on the example of the active advisory, legal, and material assistance of the “Library Country” Charitable Foundation. The analysis of the work of this organisation demonstrated the effective support of the library industry against the background of enemy aggression, in particular the possible prospects for its further development. It is obvious that cooperation with foreign organisations will grow in the future, which make it possible to purchase additional equipment for libraries that, as a result of military operations, have changed their traditional role and become powerful centres of communication, social support, and support for IDPs.

Curriculum Approach used in Teaching English : A Case Study
Authors: Selja Putri Elda , Kardena Absharini
Published: December 2022

The development and implementation of language teaching programs can be approached in several different ways, each of which has different implications for curriculum design. Indonesian schools have started modernizing their curricula by adopting a backward design that places an emphasis on students' learning outcomes in order to replace the outdated forward paradigm. They must, however, overcome a difficulty in order to achieve a beneficial alignment. This problem spurred a case study examination of the primary curriculum's objectives, syllabus, methodology, and evaluation. The results of the research indicate that the curriculum was created forward, despite claims that it was designed backward, with learning outcomes acting as program goals. In truth, the one that follows it promotes the exchange of knowledge above the development of skills. Since they still relied on information transmission, the program's learning goals were not linked with the three important components of syllabus, methodology, and assessment. The university's innovation of technique including a transfer in emphasis from the lecturer to the students was nonetheless rigidly and mechanically interpreted, and the assessment of student learning was said to be criterion-referenced without more explanation for each syllabus.

Authors: Bolshakova A. V. , Boronahin A. M. , Larionov D. Yu. , Podgornaya L. N. , Tkachenko A. N. , Shalymov R. V. , Churyaev E. D.
Published: December 2022

Introduction. Efficient operation of a system for measuring rail surface short-wavelength irregularities depends on evaluation of the signal length with respect to travelled distances, i.e., the standard maximum defect length and the distance between the wheels of a car bogie. When recording an accelerometer signal with respect to time due to the effect of velocity, the signal length corresponding to these spatially constant distances will vary.

Aim. Development of an algorithm for determining rail running surface defects using the data obtained by accelerometers mounted on the axle boxes of a car bogie under their not equidistant spatial record.

Materials and methods. The data obtained when passing a laboratory car equipped with a system for measuring short-wavelength irregularities was used. The search and determination of irregularity parameters was carried out by an inertial method. The methods of normalization and correlation analysis were used.

Results. An algorithm for determining rail running surface defects based on an inertial method was developed, considering the spatial non-equidistance of the signal. The implemented correlation analysis allows compensation of high-velocity errors when determining the defects. In the considered example, the relative error equaled 0.4 %. Compensation of velocity errors reduces the probability of type I errors in defect determination.

Conclusion. The developed algorithm considers velocity errors associated with the application of inertial methods for detecting short-wavelength irregularities. The implementation of correlation analysis reduces the probability of type I errors when determining rail running surface defects.

Published: December 2022

Introduction. Optical backscatter reflectometry is one of the most promising methods used to examine characteristic parameters relevant to the design of microring resonators. This method paves the way for experimental determination of the coupling coefficient and propagation loss. However, experimental verification of this technique by comparing the transmission characteristics obtained by reflectometry and those directly measured by an optical vector analyzer has not been carried out.

Aim. To determine the parameters of microring resonators by optical reflectometry and to calculate on their basis the transmission characteristics of microring resonators. To compare the calculated transmission characteristics with those obtained experimentally using a high-resolution vector analyzer.

Materials and methods. The characteristic parameters of silicon-on-insulator microring resonators were investigated using an ultra-high resolution reflectometer. An original algorithm was employed to derive the characteristic parameters of microring resonators from reflectograms. An optical vector analyzer was used to study the transmission characteristics of microring resonators. Numerical modeling of transmission characteristics considering the obtained parameters was carried out according an analytical approach based on partial wave analysis.

Results. The obtained values of the power coupling coefficient κ = 0.167 and propagation losses α = 3.25 dB/cm were used for numerical simulation of the transmission characteristics of a microring resonator. These characteristics were found to agree well with those obtained experimentally. The free spectral range of 88.8 GHz and Q-factor of 45 000 were determined.

Conclusion. An experimental study of the characteristic parameters of silicon-on-insulator microring resonators was conducted using an optical backscatter reflectometer. The performed comparison of the experimental and theoretical transmission characteristics showed good agreement, which indicates the high accuracy of the determined resonator parameters and, as a result, the relevance of the described method.
Potential and prospects for hydrogeological exploration according to lithostructural criteria in Antioquia department, Colombia
Authors: Betancur Teresita , Martínez Cristina
Published: December 2022

En el departamento de Antioquia, además de las unidades geológicas con porosidad primaria, la afectación tectoestructural presente en las rocas duras confiere a unidades metamórficas e ígneas propiedades de permeabilidad que permiten el flujo y almacenamiento de aguas subterráneas. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo sintetizar información útil para la identificación de potenciales zonas para la realización de nueva exploración hidrogeológica en Antioquia.
El ensamble de la cartografía geológica oficial, escala 1:100 000, ajustado al mapa geológico de Antioquia 1:400 000, suministró el insumo base para separar los distintos tipos de roca y la afectación estructural que sobre ellos se ha registrado, para así imprimirles características de permeabilidad que se calificaron con rangos entre muy bajo y muy alto. La determinación del potencial hidrogeológico, a partir de criterios geológicos, parte de la idea según la cual la naturaleza y distribución de acuíferos y acuitardos en un sistema geológico están controlados por la litología, estratigrafía y estructuras de los depósitos y las formaciones geológicas.
Como resultados, se encontró que la Dunita de Medellín, los depósitos de vertiente, la Formación Guineales, los aluviales del Terciario, la Formación Cerrito, el Grupo Sincelejo, la Formación Corpa, las terrazas y aluviones recientes, y la Formación Mesa tienen potencialidad acuífera muy alta (23,4 % del área departamental); el 5 % de la superficie del departamento tendría rocas con potencial acuífero alto, y el 35 %, medio; en el 37 % restante el potencial sería menor.
A partir de estos hallazgos se concluye que el potencial de aguas subterráneas en Antioquia abarca unidades geológicas con porosidad y permeabilidad primaria y secundaria; en este sentido, la exploración de aguas subterráneas en el departamento es una tarea urgente en pro del conocimiento hidrogeológico y la búsqueda de fuentes complementarias de abastecimiento para la población.

Bolboka, Dmitrovka, Eski Troyan, Kurçu, and Satılık-Hacı are five villages in the southern part of Bessarabia which after the Second World War found themselves within the borders of Ukraine. Not much is known about the history of these places, as even the date of foundation of each of them is not fully clear. Since the time when the Gagauz first settled in this area both the borders and nationality issues have changed. While our knowledge of the Tsarist Russia period is relatively ample, the functioning of these villages in the time of Great Romania and in Soviet times remains poorly studied. After the collapse of the USSR, Southern Budjak was within the borders of Ukraine. In contrast to the Republic of Moldova, the Gagauz population failed to gain autonomy from the state of Ukraine. Conse- quent attempts to incorporate individual cities within the Autonomous Territory of Gagauzia, in the current reality, have very little chance of success.
Rozwinięcie europejskiej myśli językoznawczej w projekcie reformy ortografii serbskiej Savy Mrkalja
Authors: Szablewski Janusz Józef
Published: December 2022

In 1810, Sava Mrkalj presented a project to reform Serbian orthography, previ­ously based on the spelling of the Church Slavonic language, in his treatise Salo debeloga jera libo azbukoprotres. The work then inspired numerous linguists, in­cluding Vuk Karadžić who based his own model of a new Serbian orthography mainly on the treatise. Mrkalj’s project draws on earlier concepts by European grammarians such as Antoine Arnauld, Claude Lancelot and, above all, Johann Christoph Adelung, author of the “write as you speak” principle; however, Mrkalj does not merely repeat the theses of his predecessors – rather, he develops them in a creative way and finds new logical justifications. Contemporary Serbian or­thography, based on the foundations laid by Mrkalj, is informed by developments of European linguistic thought, and constitutes one of the few examples of actual phonetic spelling.
Sprawy łużyckie w „Świecie Słowiańskim”

Polish-Sorbian cultural ties, not unlike Polish-Slavic relations in general could develop in optimal conditions following the founding of the Slavic Club, an as­sociation started in 1901 by Cracow’s academics and intelligentsia and led by art historian Marian Sokołowski and philosopher Marian Zdziechowski. The club’s press organ was “Świat Słowiański” (“The Slavic World”), published in the years 1905‒1914. This monthly paper, edited by Feliks Koneczny, historian and histo­riosopher, gathered a team of academics and journalists to organize a Slavophile movement alternative to the imperial Russian Pan-Slavism. The magazine’s main focus was on social and political matters; however, its editor-in-chief devoted ample space to artistic output, which was part of a mission in national and po­litical emancipation of Slavic ethnic communities. Lusatian matters, particularly nation-building activities initiated by the Sorbian intelligentsia, were presented to the readers of “The Slavic World” by the Slavist Roman Zawiliński, and three young scholars: Henryk Ułaszyn – linguist, promoter of Jakub Bart-Ćišinski’s poetry among the Poles, historian Tadeusz Kupczyński, and Czesław Koneczny, lawyer.
Język, doświadczenie, działanie – kulturoznawcze studia slawistyczne na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim
Authors: Bogusławska Magdalena

The paper deals with the process of institutionalization of cultural studies at the Institute of Western and Southern Slavic Studies, University of Warsaw. It shows the determinants and the course of institutional change, within which a new, orig­inal concept of studies was developed and implemented, based on an interdisci­plinary approach and combining the linguistic and philological traditions of Slav­ic studies with the perspective of cultural anthropology. The author analyzes the ways in which the opening of didactics and research areas to cultural studies at the Institute of Western and Southern Slavic Studies can be considered a response to the political, social, and civilizational transformations taking place in the Slavic countries following the end of the 20th century, as well as how this transformation helps to face the challenges posed by today’s culture of knowledge.
