Solid state synthesis, characterization and anti- microbial studies of some transition metal complexes of a schiff base ligand derived from parabenzoquinone and glycine
Authors: Kurawa M.A. , Jaafar J.
Published: December 2021

Schiff base was synthesized by mixing parabenzoquinone and glycine mechanochemically. Its corresponding complexes of Cu, Co and Mn were synthesized by grinding metal (II) carbonates. The synthesized compound were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, melting/decomposition temperature determination and conductivity measurements .The infrared spectroscopic analysis of the ligand shows a peak at 1620cm-1 confirm the presence of azomethane while the shift to 1602 cm-1,1623.15cm-1, 1635.69cm-1 in Mn, Cu, Co complexes respectively confirmed bond formation from azo-group to metal. The melting point temperature of the ligand at 128.20oC show that it is stable at low temperature while the decomposition temperature of Mn, Cu, Co complexes at 1900C,188.40C,2050C shows that they are stable conductivity measurement shows that the complexes were found to be non-electrolytic as compared with the theoretical values. The ligand and its respective complexes showed antimicrobial activities against some bacteria and fungi at high concentrations(1000 μg/disc and 500μg/disc) respectively while some showed no activity at all concentrations. However, Co complex shows significant activity against all the species at low concentration (250μ/disc).
Land Use Effect on Quality of Plateau Soils: A Case Study of Ososo in Northern Edo State, Nigeria
Authors: Orobator Paul Orobosa , Ekpenkhio Emmanuel
Published: December 2021

The study examined land use effect on quality of plateau soils, using Ososo in Northern Edo State, Nigeria as a case study. The objectives were to examine the status of soils under the different land uses and evaluate variation in the physicochemical properties of soils among the investigated sites. A total of thirty-six soil samples were collected from secondary forest, cocoa plantation and quarry site at 0 - 15 and 15 - 30 cm depths. Soil quality indicators were analyzed in the laboratory, while data were examined by descriptive and inferential statistics. Due to the effect of mining activities, quarry site had lower mean values of soil organic matter, total organic carbon, total nitrogen, available phosphorous, effective cation exchange capacity, potassium, copper and manganese while iron, zinc and calcium were lower in secondary forest. However, Na and ECEC were higher in cocoa plantation. The study further revealed that though the examined land uses had varied effects on the soil properties; quarry site impacted the soil quality parameters more negatively compared to the secondary forest and cocoa plantation land use types. Significant variation (p < 0.05) in sand, clay and available phosphorous was detected in the topsoil of the different land uses. The research concluded that the status of the soil nutrients was low. To improve the quality of the plateau soils, liming and the use of animal droppings, town refuse ash and plant remains is recommended.

Published: December 2021

The impact of artisanal mining on livelihoods in developing countries is a contentious issue. As a contribution to this subject, the study assessed the implications of artisanal gold mining activities on smallholder agriculture in the Wa East District of Ghana. A descriptive survey design with a mixed methods research approach was used. Primary data were sourced from respondents through interviews, questionnaire administration, and field observation. Five artisanal mining communities were selected based on the intensity of mining activities in them. The study respondents consisted of 290 household heads drawn randomly from 1,050 households. Also, key informants consisting of 5 assembly members and 15 lead artisanal miners were interviewed. The study found artisanal mining to be a dominant livelihood strategy in the district, employing about 76.2% of respondents at various levels. Artisanal mining contribution to household income was higher than food crop farming. Proceeds from mining are used to finance smallholder agriculture. However, the activities of the miners have resulted in the degradation of farmlands. We argued that artisanal mining activities should be aligned with other livelihood options such as agriculture in local communities. The study called for the engagement of local miners and traditional rulers in mineral resource decision-making.

Authors: Yahaya Abdul-Kadri , Zakaria Ashraf , Boasu Bismark Yeboah
Published: December 2021

Effective management of the National Parks largely depends on a participatory approach. Hitherto, fringe communities of Mole National Park were sidelined in its management. In recent times, the participation of communities in the management of forest resources in the Mole National Park is encouraged. This study examines how actors such as chiefs, land priests, clan heads, diviners, women leaders and youth groups support conservation using resource and habitat taboos, totemic system, traditional fire belt, sacred tree species and traditional awareness creation as strategies and their impacts thereof. The study employed a concurrent triangulation mixed methods approach in data collection, analysis, and presentation. Besides questionnaire administration as a quantitative method of data collection, the study made use of Key Informant Interviews, and Focus Group Discussions as qualitative methods of data collection. Apart from the use of descriptive statistics as a component of SPSS for the analysis of quantitative data, content analysis was used for the analysis of qualitative data. The study revealed that the fringe communities endorse the chiefs and the land priests (kasawule wura) as most effective actors in the management of forest flora and fauna and the totemic system as the most effective management strategy. The study concluded that, there exists local management actors, and strategies in resource management, and fringe communities and the park are impacted positively because of community participation in park management. It is recommended that, benefit-sharing schemes should be considered and developed by park management and fringe communities since this can engender commitment to participation.

Edmund Goldzamt (1921–1990). A Reflective Dogmatist

The article presents the biography of Edmund Goldzamt, an architect whose scientific biography has not been told yet. Born in 1921 in Lublin, educated in the USSR, he returned to Poland in 1952. Despite his modest design achievements, he played a significant role in the Stalinization of Polish cultural life. The ideological theses he developed (drawing on Soviet guidelines) were the driving force in introducing the doctrine of socialist realism in Polish architecture and urban planning. In addition, Edmund Goldzamt was a longtime theoretician and educator; he lectured at the Faculty of Architecture of the Warsaw University of Technology and had a scientific career at the Polish Academy of Sciences. After 1956, he revised his ideological views and devoted himself to research on the social determinants of architecture and urban planning.

Published: December 2021

The subject of this paper is to investigate the influence of the testamentary formalism on the realization of the testamentary freedom. In this context, the author of the paper explores whether the legal conditions for disposing of the property in case of death on the basis of a certain type of testament and the formal requirements for the validity of each of them are defined in Serbian law in such a way that they offer good basis for the realization of testamentary freedom. Having given brief description of the types of testaments in the history of Serbian law, the author continues to research this matter in contemporary Serbian law by classifying the types of testaments based on their principal characteristics. In the central part of the paper, the author aims to determine whether the existing forms of testaments secure the authenticity of the last will of the deceased and legal security and underlines strength and weaknesses of all nine forms of testaments in Serbian law. In concluding remarks, the author argues that the low number of wills as the basis of inheritance, as well as their frequent annulment by court as a result of failing to meet the formal requirements for their validity, point to the fact that there is a need for the reform in this field of law and proposes some de lege ferenda solutions.

Published: December 2021

Public-private partnership is often proposed as one of the better ways to establish sustainable and economically efficient use of water resources. On the other hand, we are witnessing an obvious crisis of legitimacy in the liberalization of public utilities, both by various civic movements and authors who challenge the success of this concept in financing water supply, emphasizing that numerous practical examples of private capital participation in this area have led to adverse effects on the poorest population strata. In this paper, the author analyzes the results of research related to the concept of public-private partnership, and attempts to answer whether such solutions appear to be necessary and whether they can be harmonized with the current tendency of public policies to recognize the right to water and include it in the catalogue of basic human rights.

Authors: Nouri Nadia
Published: December 2021

While most previous studies attribute academic achievement to external and internal motivation, the present study associates academic achievement to language proficiency of EFL learners. Students’ underachievement of summative tests might be explained with their lack of English language proficiency. Students may have some gaps in the language that have been accumulated since elementary or high school. These gaps become fossilized in students’ minds if not addressed properly. In this regard, this study presents a testing method that leads to a remedial teaching program at the undergraduate level of the English studies at the Moroccan EFL University.

CAUSES OF EARLY SCHOOL LEAVING AND PREVENTION MEASURES: SCHOOL DIRECTORS’ INSIGHTS
Authors: Bitsakos Nikolaos
Published: December 2021

The following study explores the phenomenon of early school leaving and related prevention strategies, focusing on the region of Crete, an island in Greece which has high early school leaving rates. This is a qualitative research focused on the opinions and attitudes of the elementary and secondary school units’ directors. Thirteen semi-structured interviews were conducted, showing the interviewees’ opinions about the reasons students leave school in this specific district, the applied prevention measures, and their evaluation. It is noted that the frequency of early school leaving in the local high schools and lyceums is high, while in the elementary schools it is low, which is mainly caused by the students’ decision to enter the job market, help their family agricultural business, and create a family of their own or get married -especially the female students. Furthermore, participants state that they apply certain prevention measures, which include regular communication with the close family circle and with students at risk. Finally, they state that the effectiveness of the measures implemented depends - to a large extent - on the funding provided to schools, mainly as recruitment of specialized staff.

Authors: Vlasáč Jozef , Chovan Martin , Vojtko Rastislav , Žitňan Peter , Mikuš Tomáš
Published: December 2021

The Finsterort and Anton vein system is located in the central zone of the Middle Miocene Štiavnica Stratovolcano between Vyhne and Hodruša-Hámre villages. The vein system contains several partial veins and veinlets and has generally NNE - SSW strike with moderate to steep eastward dip. Kinematics of the veins is characterised by older dextral strike-slip movement replaced by younger normal faulting. The mineralization is associated with the normal faults and the veins contain interesting paragenesis of Au-Ag bearing minerals. Minerals of precious metals are represented by argentotetrahedrite-(Zn) and rozhdestvenskayaite-(Zn), Au-Ag alloys, members of polybasite-pearceite and pyrargyrite-proustite solid solutions, acanthite and uytenbogaardtite. Au-Ag mineralization is accompanied by older paragenesis comprising mainly pyrite, galena, sphalerite and chalcopyrite. Besides quartz, carbonates (calcite, siderite and dolomite) are the main gangue minerals.
ETHNOCULTURAL AND LANGUAGE POLICY IN CHUVASHIA: EXPERT OPINION
Authors: Boyko Ivan I.
Published: December 2021

The article analyzes the opinion of the expert community on a number of problems concerning the ethnocultural development and language policy in Chuvashia. The survey was conducted in 15 regions of the country using the tools developed at the Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology under the Russian Academy of Sciences. In autumn 2020, 30 experts expressed their opinion, they represented equally the sphere of state and municipal administration, science, higher education, the media, as well as national cultural associations and other public organizations. Much attention of the experts was directed to the ways and methods of implementing the amendments to the Constitution of Russia in Chuvashia adopted in 2020, including by expanding the opportunities of regional legislation in the field of ethno-cultural development. Different points of view are expressed on such subjects as the legislative strengthening of the Chuvash language in the public space, the decision to switch to voluntary study of native languages in educational institutions, the possibility of state and public support for native languages of various peoples, etc. The attitude to such innovations was determined during the All-Russian Population Census as the ability of citizens to name themselves as representatives of more than one nationality and to name not one native language but more, to determine the extent of using other languages in everyday life other than Russian. The opinion of experts on the place and role of national cultural associations in the work on the ethno-cultural direction was studied. On a number of issues, experts expressed an integrated opinion, including supporting the cultural needs of the old-time and newly arriving population, on the need to consider native languages as belonging to traditional family values, on the possibility of identifying the level of language use in everyday life during the population census, etc. At the same time, quite opposite opinions were expressed on a number of issues. For example, this is in reference to the possibility to consider oneself a person belonging not to one, but, for example, to two ethnic identities during the population census, about the activity of national and cultural associations when discussing the amendments to the Constitution of Russia, etc.
FEATURES OF THE ECONOMIC ACTIVITY CHARACTERISTIC FOR THE PEOPLES OF EXPATRIATE COMMUNITY ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE REPUBLIC OF MORDOVIA
Authors: Minakova Albina I.
Published: December 2021

The polyethnicity of the Republic of Mordovia, an equal subject of the Russian Federation, is confirmed by the 2010 census data. According to the All-Russian census, the population of 119 nationalities lives here. The increase in the number of nationalities in the regions results in an increase in contacts between people and the impact on ethnic processes. The interaction of ethnic groups affects all aspects of the life of an ethnic group: from the way of life, including customs, rituals, type of clothing, dietary habits, relationships with nature, social relationships of ethnic groups, to the forms of economic activity of ethnic groups. Eastern European peoples, especially the Ukrainians, the Belarusians, as well as representatives of the peoples of Transcaucasia and the Central Asia living in Mordovia, are commonly found in a natural assimilation, which is expressed in some common features of their economic activities, culture and way of life. The purpose of the study is to analyze the features of economic activity carried out by the peoples living in a non-native environment outside their historical homeland. The main objective of the study is to demonstrate the factors that determine the specifics of the economic activity carried out by the peoples of expatriate community in Mordovia.

The scientific novelty lies in the fact that it is for the first time that the study makes an attempt to comprehensively study the features of the economic activities carried out by the peoples of expatriate community living in a non-native environment.

The general scientific method of research in the work consists in a general analysis of the economic components of ethnic groups in a non-native environment.

The results of the study intend to identify specific features of the economic structure of migrants from Europe, Central Asia and Transcaucasia in the polyethnic region of the Volga Federal District.

The peoples of the foreign countries living in Mordovia successfully adapted to the Republic, this was facilitated by the similarity of the living and economic conditions of the migrants in question in new territories and unfamiliar places with the areas of exodus.
At the Crossroad of Confessions
Authors: Fajt Anita
Published: December 2021

The focus of my study is a mid-seventeenth-century Latin manuscript prayer book. Its most basic characteristics should attract the attention of scholars of the period since it was compiled by a Lutheran married couple from Prešov for their individual religious practice. In examining the prayer book, I was able to identify the basic source of the manuscript, which was previously unknown to researchers: the compendium of the German Lutheran author Philipp Kegel. The manuscript follows the structure of Kegel’s volume and also extracts a number of texts from the German author’s work, which mainly collects the writings of medieval church fathers. In addition to Kegel, I have also been able to identify a few other sources; mainly the writings of Lutheran authors from Germany (Johann Arndt, Johann Gerhardt, Johann Rist, and Johann Michael Dilherr). I give a description of the physical characteristics of the manuscript, its illustrations, the hymns that accompany the prayers, and the copying hands. I will also attempt to identify the latter more precisely. The first compilers of the manuscript were Andreas Glosius and his wife Catharina Musoniana from Prešov. I also organize the biographical data we have about their life and will correct the certainly erroneous provenance of Andreas Glosius, whose name appears in the context of several important contemporary manuscripts, including the gradual of Prešov. In the last part of my paper, I will also show how well known and popular Philipp Kegel’s work was in the early modern Kingdom of Hungary. This is necessary because, although the data show that there was a very lively reception of Philipp Kegel’s work in Hungary, previous scholars have only tangentially dealt with the Hungarian presence of his work.
Exhaustion and Recycling
Authors: Simon Attila
Published: December 2021

This paper examines the works of representative modernist authors who have rewritten the myth of the Danaids in a self-reflective way. They reuse certain elements of the myth in order to address some of the crucial issues of cultural transmission: interpretation, poetic tradition and communication. The argument focuses on the recycling of the myth of the Danaids as a symbol of endless historical-philological (Nietzsche) and psychological (Freud) interpretations, the exhaustion and the reinvention of the classical literary tradition (Babits), and the impossible possibility of mediating the living voice through telephonic communication (Proust).

The paper examines the intertextual structure of Christoph Ransmayr’s novel Die letzte Welt, focusing on the double strategy of integrating Ovid’s Metamorphoses into the novel’s textual and diegetic level. Borrowing Gérard Genette’s term, it argues that though Ransmayr evokes the structure of a metatextual relationship between his own and Ovid’s work, finally it undermines the distinction between commenting and commented texts. Following a brief survey of the early reception of Ransmayr’s novel and of the political issues raised by critical readings, the essay argues for applying a different textual model that does not presuppose the distinction between original or source and secondary texts, proposing instead the concept of an intrinsic difference as suggested by Jacques Derrida’s notion of “hymen”, that is, a difference working like a dividing and permeable membrane.
Singer’ın Mutlak Yoksulluğun Çözümüne Yaklaşımında Sorumluluk ve Haklar Sorunu
Authors: MARŞ Nurevşan
Published: December 2021

Bu çalışmada mutlak yoksulluk ve gıdaya erişim sorununa karşı geliştirilen felsefi yaklaşımların başında gelen Peter Singer’ın çözüm önerisi ele alınmaktadır. Singer’ın açlığı ve mutlak yoksulluğu önlemek için öne sürdüğü ahlaki ödev ve bu ödevden doğan sorumluluklarımızın hak temelli bir anlayışla bağdaşıp bağdaşamayacağı tartışılmıştır. Bir yandan, Singer kimsenin mutlak yoksulluktan ölmemesi gerektiğini savunmaktadır; bir bakıma, açlıktan ve yoksulluktan ölmenin o insanların yaşam hakkının elinden alınması anlamına geldiğini işaret eder. Diğer yandan, açlık ve yoksulluk sorununu temel haklara erişim sorunu olarak ele almamaktadır. Singer’ın temel insan haklarını göz ardı ettiği katiyen söylenemez ancak tok olanların açlara yardım etmesiyle sorunun çözüleceğini düşünmesi; gıdaya erişimin ve sağlıklı yaşam koşullarının yaşam hakkı kapsamında bir hak olarak talep edilmemesi ve mutlak yoksulluktan mustarip olanların mutlak zenginlerin inayetine terk edilmesini ima edebilir. Buradan yola çıkarak, bu çalışmada Singer’ın mutlak yoksulluk sorununu, temel bir hak olan gıdaya erişim hakkı ve yaşam hakkı bağlamında ele almaması onun sorumluluk anlayışının bir eksikliği olarak değerlendirilmektedir.
Sadrü’l-İslam Dönemi Şiirlerinde Tevhit ve Hz. Peygamber Teması

Published: December 2021

Arap edebiyatında şiir, Câhiliye döneminde en fazla işlenen sanat dalı olmuştur. Bu yüzden şiire dîvânü’l-‘Arap denilmiştir. Arap toplumunun bu özelliği İslâm dininin gelmesiyle beraber aynı minvalde devam etmiş şiirin eski temalarına yenileri de eklenerek daha da zenginleşmiştir. Bu çalışmada Sadru’l-İslâm dönemi şiirlerinde işlenen tevhit ve Hz. Peygamber teması ele alınmıştır. Çalışmanın ana konusuna geçmeden önce bu dönemin sınırları belirlenmiş olup, hangi zaman dilimlerini kapsadığı tespit edilmiştir. Daha sonra Câhiliye döneminde şiirin önemi ile ilgili kısa bilgiler verilmiştir. Akabinde Sadru’l-İslâm dönemindeki şiirin gerilemesi ilgili iddiaların gerekçesi olan âyet ve hadisler özet mahiyetinde değerlendirilmiş ve bunların şiirin gerilemesine delil olamayacağı, aksine Hz. Peygamberin şiiri Müşriklere karşı bir cihat aracı olarak kullandığını, dolayısıyla da geliştiği anlatılmıştır. Yeni dinin Arap toplumuna indirilmesinden sonra üzerinde durduğu temel ilkenin tevhit olduğu, zira Câhiliye Araplarının Allah’a inanmakla beraber şefaatçi olacakları iddiasıyla putlara taptığı ifade edildi. Bu dönemde Müslüman olan şâirler İslâm dinini kabul ettikten sonra tevhit temasını şiirlerinde sıklıkla kullandıklarını, bunu yalnızca Medine’de ikamet eden şâirlerle sınırlı olmadığını örnekleriyle beraber anlatıldı. Sadru’l-İslâm döneminde Hz. Peygamber teması içerisinde şâirlerin onun üstün meziyetlerini şiirlerinde işleyerek geniş bir külliyat meydana getirdiklerini, bu türden yazılan şiirlerin Peygamberin hayatta olmasıyla sınırlı kalmadığını vefatından sonrada devam ettiği örnekler verilerek anlatıldı.
Şi’bu Ebî Tâlib’teki Boykot
Authors: YAPRAKDAL Erol
Published: December 2021

Arap tarihinde örneğine rastlanılmayan ilginç bir kitlesel cezalandırma yöntemi olan boykot, Müslümanlara karşı uygulanmış gibi algılanmaktadır. Oysaki boykot, sadece Hz. Peygamber’i koruyan Hâşimoğulları’nın inanan-inanmayan tüm bireylerine uygulanmıştır. Bu süre zarfında çok sayıda kişinin öldüğü ifade edilse de kaynaklarda konuyla ilgili detaylı bilgi mevcut değildir. Kabilecilik anlayışının hâkim olduğu Mekke’de haklı da olsa haksız da olsa insanların kendi kabile bireylerinin etrafında kenetlenmesini gösteren bu hadise, dolaylı olarak Hz. Peygamber’in İslam davetini de koruduğu söylenebilir. Ayrıca görünürde müşriklerin talebi Hz. Peygamber’in öldürülmesi ya da kendilerine teslim edilmesi olsa da arka planda kabile rekabeti de yatmaktadır. Müşriklerin İslam davetini durdurmak amacıyla başvurdukları bu yöntem onların beklentilerini karşılayamamış aksine yine kendi aralarında bulunan kimselerin girişimiyle boykot sona ermiştir. Mucizevi bir şekilde “güve”nin musallat olduğu sahifeyi yemesiyle boykotun son bulduğu rivayet edilse de gerçekte inisiyatif alan insaf ehli kimselerin girişimiyle son bulmuştur. Ayrıca zalime karşı mazlumun yanında yer alan Hılfu’l-Fudûl’un bu süreçte neden pasif kaldığı konusunda net bir bilgi mevcut değildir. Boykottan sonra Hz. Peygamber Mekke’den ümidini kesmiş ve yeni yurt arayışlarına başlamıştır. Boykot hadisesi kaynakların çoğunda yer almaktadır. Ancak bu süreçle ilgili kaynaklarda detaylı bilgi ve somut verilerden ziyade genel anlatım ve birtakım dramatik sahneler yer almaktadır. Çalışmada, kaynaklardaki verilerden hareketle boykotun tarihsel süreci ele alınırken öte yandan önemli değerlendirme ve tespitleri olan araştırmalardan da faydalanılmıştır. Böylelikle boykotla ilgili doğru tespitlerin ortaya konulması ve mevcut birtakım duygusal algılar yerine hadisenin olgular üzerinden değerlendirilmesi hedeflenmiştir.

The aim of the research is to clarify the methodology for assessing the resistance of hazel (hazelnuts) to stress factors on the basis of uniform approaches adopted in walnut farming. The assessment of resistance to biotic and abiotic factors has been carried out according to the methods recommended for the walnut, and the state of the vegetative and generative organs of hazel (hazelnuts) has been correlated with the program requirements. The result has been the development of 7 point assessment scales and the numerical values of the degree of damage correlated with them. Score 0 corresponds to the absence of lesions, 1 – lesions up to 5%, 2 – lesions up to 6–10%, 3 – lesions up to 11–25%, 4 – lesions up to 26–50%, 5 – lesions up to 51–75%, 6 – lesions more than 75% or death of the whole plant (depending on the studied indicator). The assessment scale for the winter hardiness of vegetative organs takes into account the degree of damage to the apical buds, annual shoots, branches of two years and older, the stem and the whole plant. Damage to male inflorescences is determined by the length of their dead part, to the female flowers – by the number of damaged ones, expressed as a percentage. The degree of drought resistance is revealed on the basis of studying the state of the entire plant, the percentage of damaged and fallen leaves. The influence of drought on the loss of food part is established by the degree of shrinkage of the kernel. Susceptibility to diseases and pests is estimated in percentage points separately for leaves by area, shoots in length, nuts by the ratio of damaged and undamaged ones. We have distinguished 6 groups of resistance, depending on the degree of vulnerability of varieties and forms of hazel (hazelnuts). It has been proposed to draw conclusions on the basis of at least three years of observations, and the final conclusion should be focused on specific breeding goals.
