Danièle Pauly, Le Corbusier. Catalogue des dessins, Tome 2, 1917-1928
Authors: Morel Journel Guillemette
Published: September 2023

Tout juste deux ans après la parution d’un premier volume consacré aux dessins de la première période de Le Corbusier (alors Charles-Édouard Jeanneret), Danièle Pauly aborde la période la plus connue et reconnue de l’œuvre artistique de l’architecte. C’est dire si ce deuxième tome, qui sera suivi de deux autres pour parcourir l’ensemble de ses dessins, était attendu. Il compte presque 100 pages de plus que le précédent (soit 450) mais reprend une organisation similaire : un ouvrage mixte, qui se situe entre le « catalogue raisonné » au sens strict (où les « numéros » des œuvres sont présentés dans un ordre strictement chronologique, avec un descriptif technique précis et leur traçabilité), que prisent les professionnels (chercheurs, galeristes, collectionneurs, institutions), et le « beau livre », sans prétention à l’exhaustivité, où les regroupements thématiques et des commentaires interprétatifs satisfont la curiosité des amateurs, quel que soit leur degré de connaissance de l’œuvre de Le Corbusier.

Bestuurlijke oplossingen voor de beheersing van exportcontrolerisico’s in internationale toeleveringsketens: theoretisch en praktisch geduid
Authors: Demmink Gert , De Schryver Tom
Published: September 2023

Exportcontroleregelgeving laat zich niet meer wegdenken uit de wereld van internationale handel. Het verplicht zakenpartners om na te gaan met wie en hoe men zakendoet. Bij internationale toeleveringsketens zijn de compliance-uitdagingen veel groter dan voor een individuele exporteur, vanwege de steeds uitdijende relaties die in een keten worden aangegaan. Omdat ketenpartners vaak uiteenlopende en tegenstrijdige belangen nastreven, zijn extra prikkels nodig om alle ketenpartijen te overtuigen van het naleven van de regelgeving. Deze prikkels, die theoretisch geduid kunnen worden als “Contract-Boundary Spanning Governance mechanismen’’ (CBSGM) vullen de bestaande regelgeving aan en bieden een houvast om ketenpartijen te prikkelen tot meer compliance-inspanningen. Dit wordt geïllustreerd aan de hand van de complexe toeleveringsketen van de F-35, waar de prikkels de weg voor de Amerikaanse overheid hebben voorbereid om noodzakelijk preventieve en detectieve compliancecontroles uit te voeren.

EL rápido avance en las tecnologías de la información y de la comunicación están permitiendo implantar en las organizaciones nuevos enfoques de aprendizaje, los que denominamos genéricamente "virtuales", y que cada vez incorporan herramientas más sofisticadas. Sin embargo, y aunque hay una gran oferta de cursos de este tipo que ya utilizamos en las empresas, es esencial que se desarrollen también las herramientas necesarias para una adecuada planificación, gestión y seguimiento conjunto de la actividad formativa virtual de cada organización.
Este trabajo recoge la experiencia práctica de Iberdrola en la implantación de una plataforma tecnológica de soporte a este tipo de cursos denominada SIVIF (Sistema Virtual de Formación). Se ofrecen los detalles del diseño, planificación y puesta en marcha de la Fase Piloto con que comenzó la implantación, así como los instrumentos utilizados para la recogida de datos sobre la misma y los resultados obtenidos.
La competencia judicial internacional en el contrato individual de trabajo
Authors: Zarzalejo Carbajo M.ª Mercedes
Published: September 2023

La determinación de la competencia judicial internacional en el supuesto específico del contrato individual de trabajo constituye una de las cuestiones que mayores problemas plantea en cuanto a su proyección o aplicación práctica.
Ello se debe a la existencia de una diversidad de normas de carácter internacional (Convenios de Bruselas y Lugano y Directiva 96/71/CE del Consejo sobre el desplazamiento de trabajadores efectuado en el marco de una prestación de servicios), que, junto con las disposiciones de producción interna (en el caso de España, el art. 25.1 de la Ley Orgánica del Poder Judicial y la Ley 45/1999 de transposición de la Directiva anterior), consagran un amplio abanico de criterios o foros competenciales aplicables a los litigios de tráfico jurídico externo que se suscitan en el seno de las relaciones laborales y, concretamente, en materia de contrato individual de trabajo.
El presente estudio pretende exponer con claridad los supuestos de aplicación de cada uno de estos instrumentos reguladores de la competencia judicial internacional, a fin de determinar el órgano jurisdiccional competente para el conocimiento y resolución de la controversia planteada. Para lograr este objetivo, resulta necesario el análisis detallado de los criterios atributivos de competencia que integran cada una de dichas regulaciones. Todas ellas encaminadas, con carácter general, a establecer un sistema tutelador del trabajador en cuanto que es la parte más débil de esta relación contractual.
Fundamentos para el desarrollo del capital intelectual en la economía informacional
Authors: Conde Vieitez Jorge Alberto , De la Torre García Alberto , Vega Rodríguez María Teresa , Sánchez José Carlos
Published: September 2023

El presente trabajo trata de realizar una aproximación reflexiva en torno a las bases fundamentales sobre las que poder potenciar el desarrollo del llamado Capital Intelectual –activos intangibles o inmateriales– como fuente directa de riqueza y motor de competitividad en la nueva economía informacional.
Partiendo de un breve recorrido acerca de las principales implicaciones que las actuales transformaciones sociotécnicas tienen sobre las características del empleo, la lógica del diseño organizativo e inclusive del perfil de requerimientos del trabajador, los autores reflexionan de manera crítica sobre algunas características sensibles de ese Capital Intelectual que explicarían en gran medida los altos niveles de desempleo en nuestro país. Concretamente se centrarán en los niveles de formación de la población en relación con el empleo y en ciertos factores o elementos culturales y psicosociales que obstaculizarían la iniciativa empresarial entre la población española.
Por último, atendiendo a las tendencias tecno-económicas y organizativas que van configurando la sociedad del conocimiento los autores proponen una doble estrategia de actuación que fortalezca el desarrollo del Capital Intelectual. Así en el ámbito educacional, sugieren incluir algunos elementos formativos claves que resultan indispensables considerar en el diseño de un nuevo modelo educativo que sea funcional con los parámetros de la nueva economía emergente. Respecto al ámbito empresarial-organizacional elaboran un modelo de potenciación del Capital Intelectual en la empresa antecedido por el desarrollo de un conjunto de factores sensibles que engloban bajo el nombre de Capital Social, ya que si el conocimiento como bien intangible cobra relevancia como generadora de riqueza, la dimensión social y psicológica que acompaña y se mezcla con aquélla no puede ser ajena a esta nueva lógica de desarrollo.

La discutida eficacia de las sentencias sociales firmes en el proceso contencioso-administrativo en materia de gestión recaudatoria de Seguridad Social
Authors: Lorenzo Membiela Juan B.
Published: September 2023

El presente trabajo aborda el problema de la concurrencia de procesos sobre una misma relación jurídica, en el ámbito de la gestión recaudatoria de la Seguridad Social, en distintos Órdenes jurisdiccionales (Social y Contencioso-Administrativo). El análisis de los efectos y de la eficacia que la sentencia dictada en alguno de estos procesos produce sobre el otro pendiente exige tener en cuenta el estudio de algunos principios procesales básicos: la eficacia prejudicial o positiva de la cosa juzgada, el principio de intangibilidad de las resoluciones judiciales, así como la forma de aportación de la ejecutoria social al órgano jurisdiccional contencioso a los efectos de apreciar la vinculación de la sentencia social, lo que, a su vez, puede plantear diversos problemas jurídicos, dadas las especialidades de la Ley de la Jurisdicción Contencioso-Administrativa de 1998.
La entrevista de selección ¡a escena!

Se abre el telón... en el momento en que candidato y entrevistador se saludan estrechándose las manos. Nuestra obra, la entrevista de selección, que de esta forma comienza, se nos presenta así con dos enfoques, desde dos perspectivas, con dos actores... Veremos al candidato durante la entrevista, y también le aconsejaremos sobre cómo enfrentarse a ella... La clave: «ser uno mismo». Conoceremos a un entrevistador en su papel de tal, asomándose al candidato mediante esa entrevista, que hemos tratado de pintar como una amena charla, una toma de contacto, un intercambio de información. Y también veremos al entrevistador en el papel de entrevistado: una de las responsables de selección de IBM se dejó entrevistar con agrado... La pincelada: una entrevista sobre «la entrevista de selección». A través de todo el recorrido, aprenderemos que una entrevista no son preguntas y respuestas, no son sólo palabras..., una entrevista son también gestos que hablan, impresiones, que también hay que estudiar y entender, so pena de caer en el error... Es, en definitiva, una búsqueda rodeada de formas en una persona para tratar de encontrar en ella a un profesional.

FINTECH'S ROLE IN SUSTAINABLE BANKING PERFORMANCE: ARE GREEN BANKING POLICIES DRIVING SUSTAINABILITY IN PAKISTAN'S BANKING SYSTEM?
Authors: Naz Samina , Asif Muhammad , Hameed Salman
Published: September 2023

The technology pervades every aspect of business operations, making it impossible for any organization to evade its presence. The delight of the customer is now the priority of the organization. Adopting the sustainable practice of using fintech to facilitate the customer with ease is the game now for every bank in Pakistan and it needs serious attention. This study explored this gap and added facilitation aspect of green banking practices to the loop. Without the sustainable developmental goals-SDG, no business sees its future growing. Adoption of fintech is one of them. State Bank of Pakistan also promulgated green banking regulation in 2017, which forces the banks to adopt green banking practices in finance, operational, and daily routines of the personnel. Our explanatory, quantitative study assessed the effect of fintech on sustainable green practices and the bank's green practice activities as a mediator through a questionnaire consisting of 31 questions filled by 302 banking professionals in Karachi, Pakistan, & found that the green banking activities mediated the relationship between the fintech adoption and sustainable banking practices but the direct effect of fintech is found to be insignificant as local environment and the mindset of the employee is not ready for it. The study provide vauable information and recommendations.

Published: September 2023

Otonom gemilerin uzaktan kontrol durumunda gemi üzerinde bulunmadan gemiyi uzaktan kontrol edecek olan kişilerin gemi insanı olarak kabul edilip edilemeyeceği, eğer gemi insanı olarak kabul edilecekler ise nasıl tanımlanabilecekleri, bu kişilerin hangi eğitim ve sertifikalandırılmalara tabi olmaları gerektiği, ayrıca uzak kontrol merkezlerinde çalışacak kişilerin uluslararası sefer yapacak gemilerin sevk ve idaresini yapacaklarından ötürü bu kişilerin tanımlarına, eğitim ve yeterlik şartlarına uluslararası standart getirilme ihtiyacı bulunup bulunmadığı konuları araştırmanın ana problemi olmuştur. Bu çalışmanın amacı, otonom gemilerin uzaktan kontrol merkezlerinde çalışması muhtemel gemi insanlarının durumunun STCW-Gemiadamlarının Eğitim, Belgelendirme ve Vardiya Standartları Hakkında Uluslararası Sözleşmesi (Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping Convention) kapsamında incelenmesidir. Sonuç olarak, STCW’ nin uzak kontrol merkezlerinde çalışması muhtemel gemi insanlarının eğitim, belgelendirme ve standardizasyonunu tam olarak karşılayamadığı, tanım eksiklikleri içerdiği, otonom gemilerin uzaktan kontrolü bağlamında yeni bir sözleşme ihtiyacı olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, bu kişiler için yeni bir tanım önerisi sunulmuştur. Çalışmanın bu yönüyle literatüre önemli bir katkı sunacağı düşünülmektedir. Bununla beraber geleceğin denizcilik eğitimleri ile ilgili tespitler yapılarak öneriler sunulmuştur.
Van wie was het stadhuis?
Authors: Van Kleij Nathan
Published: September 2023

In de vijftiende eeuw was het stadhuis een drukbezocht, publiek overheidsgebouw in de steden van de noordelijke Lage Landen. Als belangrijk bestuurscentrum en plaats voor publieke diensten was het een gebouw met meerdere functies. Lokale autoriteiten trachtten toegang en gedrag in het gebouw, en dan met name in de gerechtskamers, te reguleren aan de hand van regels en handhaving en door de gebouwde omgeving aan te passen. Maar orde in het stadhuis was geen vanzelfsprekendheid. Aan de hand van verordeningen en criminele vonnisboeken en met behulp van een 3D-reconstructie van de publieke hal en vierschaar, toont dit artikel aan dat verstoringen in het stadhuis van Gouda en Leiden gangbaar waren en dat zij de door de autoriteiten beoogde orde contesteerden. Zowel bestuurders als andere stedelingen gebruikten doelbewust de openbaarheid van specifieke ruimtes in het stadhuis om publiekelijk het stedelijke gezag te bevestigen of juist uit te dagen. In dit artikel wordt beargumenteerd dat het laatmiddeleeuwse stadhuis zowel door overheidsstructuren als het alledaags gebruik door een grote diversiteit aan stedelingen vorm kreeg.
Ethische politiek verbeeld als de christelijke beschavingsmissie
Authors: Breman Jan
Published: September 2023

Dit recensieartikel is gewijd aan een beoordeling van de biografie van Hans van der Jagt over de Nederlandse antirevolutionaire politicus en koloniale functionaris Alexander Willem Frederik Idenburg (Engelen uit Europa, 2022). Van der Jagt portretteert Idenburg ten onrechte als het boegbeeld van de ethische politiek, die aan het begin van de twintigste eeuw werd ontvouwd, en schetst daarvan een te rooskleurig beeld. Deze ethische politiek, zo wordt in dit artikel betoogd, is veeleer als een schaamlap gebruikt, waarachter de voortzetting van het koloniale oogmerk schuilging, namelijk de handhaving van Nederlands gezag met vergaande uitbuiting van land en volk. Voortgekomen uit sociale bewogenheid over de verarming van de Indonesische bevolking diende de vergaarde rijkdom tot lastenverlichting van de kolonie en mondigheid van haar inwoners te leiden. Hoewel de verwezenlijking van deze politieke opdracht uitbleef had de volgehouden verwijzing ernaar, zowel in het laatkoloniale als postkoloniale tijdperk, als doel de voortgaande Nederlandse heerschappij te rechtvaardigen. Mijn betoog brengt de ontluisterende praktijk van de erbij betrokken partijen en hun belangen in beeld. In dit relaas evalueer ik de rol van Idenburg als de politieke spilfiguur van de ethische politiek. Op de hoge koloniale posten hem toevertrouwd vertolkte hij de antirevolutionaire leer in het gevoerde beleid. Maar ook andere spelers, voor- en tegenstanders van ethische politiek met hun beweegredenen, komen aan bod, vanaf het trage en zuinige begin tot de vroege eclips ervan.

The dynamics of marsh-channel slump blocks: an observational study using repeated drone imagery
Authors: Yang Zhicheng , Alexander Clark , Alber Merryl
Published: September 2023

Abstract. Slump blocks are widely distributed features along marsh shorelines that can play an important role in marsh dynamics. However, little is known about their spatial distribution patterns, nor their longevity and movement. We employed an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to track slump blocks in 11 monthly images (March 2020–March 2021) of Dean Creek, a tidal creek surrounded by salt marsh located on Sapelo Island (GA, USA).  Slump blocks were observed along both convex and concave banks of the creek in all images, with sizes between 0.03 and 72.51 m2. Although the majority of blocks were categorized as persistent, there were also new blocks in each image. Most blocks were lost through submergence, and both decreased in area and moved towards the center of the channel over time. However, some blocks reconnected to the marsh platform, which has not been previously observed. These blocks were initially larger and located closer to the marsh edge than those that submerged, and increased in area over time. Only 13 out of a cohort of 61 newly created blocks observed in May 2020 remained after 5 months, suggesting that most blocks persist for only a short time. When taken together, the total area of new slump blocks was 886.13 m2 and that of reconnected blocks was 652.45 m2. This resulted in a net expansion of the channel by 233.68 m2 over the study period, accounting for about 66 % of the overall increase in the channel area of Dean Creek, and suggests that slump block processes play an important role in tidal creek channel widening. This study illustrates the power of repeated UAV surveys to monitor short-term geomorphological processes, such as slump block formation and loss, to provide new insights into marsh eco-geomorphological processes.
Development of the tangent linear and adjoint models of the global online chemical transport model MPAS-CO2 v7.3
Authors: Zheng Tao , Feng Sha , Steward Jeffrey , Tian Xiaoxu , Baker David , Baxter Martin
Published: September 2023

Abstract. We describe the development of the tangent linear (TL) and adjoint models of the MPAS-CO2 transport model, which is a global online chemical transport model developed upon the non-hydrostatic Model for Prediction Across Scales-Atmosphere (MPAS-A). The primary goal is to make the model system a valuable research tool for investigating atmospheric carbon transport and inverse modeling. First, we develop the TL code, encompassing all CO2 transport processes within the MPAS-CO2 forward model. Then, we construct the adjoint model using a combined strategy involving re-calculation and storage of the essential meteorological variables needed for CO2 transport. This strategy allows the adjoint model to undertake long-period integration with moderate memory demands. To ensure accuracy, the TL and adjoint models undergo vigorous verifications through a series of standard tests. The adjoint model, through backward-in-time integration, calculates the sensitivity of atmospheric CO2 observations to surface CO2 fluxes and the initial atmospheric CO2 conditions. To demonstrate the utility of the adjoint model, we conduct simulations for two types of atmospheric CO2 observations: tower-based in situ CO2 mixing ratio and satellite-derived column-averaged (XCO2). A comparison between the sensitivity to surface flux calculated by the MPAS-CO2 adjoint model with its counterpart from Carbon Tracker-Lagrange (CT-L) reveals spatial agreement but notable magnitude differences. These differences, particularly evident for XCO2, likely arise from differences in vertical mixing between the two systems. Moreover, this comparison highlights the substantial loss of information in the atmospheric CO2 observations due to CT-L’s simulation length and spatial domain limitations. Furthermore, the adjoint sensitivity analysis demonstrates that the sensitivities to both surface flux and initial CO2 conditions spread out throughout the entire northern hemisphere within a month. MPAS-CO2 forward, TL, and adjoint models stand out for their calculation efficiency and variable-resolution capability, making them competitive in computational cost. In conclusion, the successful development of the MPAS-CO2 TL and adjoint models, and their integration into the MPAS-CO2 system, establish the possibility of using MPAS’s unique features for investigating atmospheric CO2 transport sensitivity studies and for conducting inverse modeling with advanced methods such as variational data assimilation.
Acute and Prolonged Effects of 300 sec of Static, Dynamic, and Combined Stretching on Flexibility and Muscle Force

Published: September 2023

Static stretching (SS), dynamic stretching (DS), and combined stretching (CS; i.e., DS+SS) are commonly performed as warm-up exercises. However, the stretching method with the greatest effect on flexibility and performance remains unclear. This randomized crossover trial examined acute and prolonged effects of SS, DS, and CS on range of motion (ROM), peak passive torque (PPT), passive stiffness, and isometric and concentric muscle forces. Twenty healthy young men performed 300 sec of active SS, DS, or CS (150-sec SS followed by 150-sec DS and 150-sec DS followed by 150-sec SS) of the right knee flexors on four separate days, in random order. Subsequently, we measured ROM, PPT, and passive stiffness during passive knee extension. We also measured maximum voluntary isometric and concentric knee flexion forces and surface electromyographic activities during force measurements immediately before, immediately after, and 20 and 60 min after stretching. All stretching methods significantly increased ROM and PPT, while significantly decreasing isometric knee flexion force (all p < 0.05). These changes lasted 60 min after all stretching methods; the increases in ROM and PPT and the decreases in isometric muscle force were similar. All stretching methods also significantly decreased passive stiffness immediately after stretching (all p < 0.05). Decreases in passive stiffness tended to be longer after CS than after SS or DS. Concentric muscle force was decreased after SS and CS (all p < 0.05). On the other hand, concentric muscle force was unchanged after DS, while the decreases in surface electromyographic activities during concentric force measurements after all stretching methods were similar. Our results suggest that 300 sec of SS, DS, and CS have different acute and prolonged effects on flexibility and muscle force.
Sombras y luces del ejercicio de la ciudadanía en Francisco Suárez. Bien común, libertad y responsabilidad
Authors: Barroso Fernández Óscar
Published: September 2023

En este trabajo se sostiene que la filosofía política de Francisco Suárez puede ayudarnos a pensar el sentido del ejercicio responsable de la ciudadanía. No se trata de encontrar en el Doctor Eximius a un demócrata convencido, cosa imposible habida cuenta de su defensa del absolutismo, sino de apoyarnos en él para pensar en cómo mejorar hoy la vida democrática. Partiendo del supuesto de que la crisis actual de la democracia es una crisis de ciudadanía, se mostrará que para Suárez la virtud ciudadana se sostiene en el centro de una relación triangular de bien común, libertad y responsabilidad: la libertad está indefectiblemente unida a la autoridad; pero una autoridad que ya transita desde la heteronomía a la autonomía, gracias a una concepción de la ley “como fuerza responsable y creadora en el corazón del hombre” bajo la guía del bien común.
Tempus fugit, la fuga barroca frente a la crisis temporal contemporánea
Authors: Cabrera Torrecilla Angélica
Published: September 2023

El presente artículo propone un estudio comparativo de la idea de fuga presente en la época del Barroco, como una herramienta crítica capaz de afrontar la crisis temporal contemporánea provocada por una hegemonía aceleracionista. El objetivo es demostrar que, simbólicamente, la fuga permite analizar comparativamente el tiempo en la contemporaneidad y en el Barroco, pues en ambos casos esta noción infiere cambio y transitoriedad. Sin embargo, mientras en el primero la fuga se vincula con un tiempo prospectivo enmarcado en la aceleración y el hiper-consumo; en el Barroco la fuga potencia el momento, posibilitando la inflexión y la coyuntura. Bajo esta consideración, se estudia a la fuga como una alegoría temporal de la producción intelectual y cultural del Barroco que, a partir de las nociones y los usos del movimiento, el contrapunto, la retórica y el pliegue; lega una significación polisémica capaz de extender la constricción de la fugacidad temporal en la actualidad.
Nicolás Gómez Dávila, el barroco y la ética mundana de Baltasar Gracián
Authors: Torregroza Lara Enver Joel
Published: September 2023

Existen divergencias teológicas entre el humanismo jesuita de Gracián y la teología pascaliana de la gracia del pensador colombiano Nicolás Gómez Dávila. El mismo Gómez Dávila cuestiona críticamente en algunos de sus “escolios” el estilo de la literatura barroca española, cuando la compara con otras literaturas. Sin embargo, existe un punto de conexión entre el héroe virtuoso de Gracián y el modo de vida filosófico del pensador bogotano: ambas filosofías desarrollan una ética mundana que sirve para pensar de qué modo el espíritu humano puede acceder a la trascendencia atravesando los laberintos cavernosos de las vicisitudes terrenales.

Las circunstancias vividas en el año 2020 nos dieron una amarga prueba de humildad; durante el último siglo la humanidad se vanaglorió de sus avances en temas de salud, ciencia y desarrollo, y nos condujo a pensar que estábamos en el pináculo de la historia y que nuestro estilo de vida nos permitiría dedicarnos a la contemplación, según el ideal aristotélico, o a temas más trascendentales, como la recuperación del planeta o los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible, sin tener que preocuparnos por una epidemia a escala global.

Published: September 2023

Many countries already have efforts to accelerate tourism recovery (including the Government of Indonesia). One of the issued policies is facilitating investment in the tourism sector, which is expected to encourage economic growth and create sustainable jobs. This study uses a qualitative desk study approach or literature research to analyze the implications of implementing the golden visa policy to encourage investment development in the tourism sector. Besides, this study elaborates explicitly 3 (three) things: existing policies related to visa applications and the context of tourism investment, benchmarking of golden visa policies in some countries, and strategic policy implications.  Based on the analysis, a comprehensive approach is needed in formulating appropriate and relevant policies to support sustainable tourism investment, manifested in regulations along with adequate and effective implementation supervision. Related to the efforts to attract foreign investors to invest in Indonesia, and referring to the example of the application of the Golden Visa that has been carried out by several countries, existing policies in Indonesia can be added with several requirements in the prerequisite of golden visas aimed, so the goal of national economic development to prevent harmful excesses can be reached.
THE IMPACT OF JOB INSECURITY AND WORKLOAD ON EMPLOYEE WORKSTRESS DUE TO THE EFFECT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC
Authors: Octiyana Ni Komang Evi , Diwyarthi Ni Desak Made Santi
Published: September 2023

This study aimed to investigate the impact of job insecurity, workload, and employee work stress due to the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study involved 116 employees of Hotel I.B.S.B., and data were collected using questionnaires, observations, interviews, and literature studies. The method was a multiple regression analysis method. The findings of this study revealed that both job insecurity and workload have a significant and positive impact on employee work stress. This indicates that as job insecurity and workload increase, the work stress experienced by Hotel IBSB employees also rises. The combined effect of job insecurity and workload on work stress accounted for 57.2% of the variation. To address these issues, the hotel management should focus on fostering a comfortable work environment with effective communication to alleviate uncertainties and concerns related to work. Providing workloads that align with each employee's capabilities, assessing stress-causing factors, and implementing preventive measures are crucial to mitigating employee work stress.

Mortar umumnya berbahan dasar pasir, air serta semen sebagai komponen pengikat. Namun saat ini mortar dapat dimodifikasi dengan memanfaatkan FABA (fly ash dan bottom ash). Terkadang, hasil modifikasi mortar membuat nilai kuat tekan mortar tidak sesuai yang diinginkan, oleh karenanya memberikan zat tambah kimia berupa Sikament LN menjadi pilihan guna mempercepat perolehan nilai kuat tekan yang optimal. Penelitian yang bersifat eksperimental ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan Sikament LN terhadap kuat tekan mortar FABA. Dari penelitian ini dapat diketahui bahwa penambahan Sikament LN dengan kadar persentase 0%, 0,5%, 1,5% dan 2,5% mempengaruhi nilai kuat tekan mortar FABA dengan nilai kuat tekan mortar untuk umur 14 hari sebesar 9,90 MPa, 10,90 MPa, 13,75 MPa dan 18,50 MPa. Sedangkan kuat tekan mortar FABA dengan kadar persentase Sikament LN yang sama pada umur 28 hari memperoleh nilai kuat tekan sebesar 11,55 MPa, 11,85 MPa, 16,85 MPa dan 20,45 MPa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai kuat tekan optimal pada mortar FABA dengan penambahan Sikament LN baik pada umur 14 hari maupun 28 hari berada pada dosis 2,5%.

The U.S. fought its history’s longest war to defeat the “Taliban” insurgency, one strategy for doing so involved winning the “hearts and minds” of Afghans. However, the U.S it failed in its stated objectives. The United State could have done more to try to defeat the insurgency and counter terrorist groups in Afghanistan as well as to achieve state building and peace building objectives if they could have convinced the region, especially Pakistan to cooperate towards these aims Afghan problem. The poor governance, vast corruption, lack of regional cohesion in defeating “Taliban’s” insurgency especially Pakistan’s frequent negative interference in Afghanistan and lack of legitimacy of the Afghan Government has undermined the United States counterinsurgency efforts in past two decades in Afghanistan. To elaborate on the failure of the U.S. counterinsurgency campaign, it is important to understand the essence of theory and practice. D.Galula’s theory of “counterinsurgency” is a mixture of military, political and social actions under the resilient control of a single authority. This observation leads us to one of the critical hypotheses of this research which is that by ignoring Indigenous government– as one the most significant precondition for winning counterinsurgency – resulted in the return of the “Taliban” insurgency and prolongation of the Afghan conflict. Using the interventionist theory, this paper briefly analyses the cause and consequences of the U.S. counterinsurgency efforts and its peace and state-building failure in Afghanistan.

In the conditions of intensification and specialization of beef cattle breeding on an industrial basis, high productivity and regular reproduction of animals determine the profitability of breeding farms. The article presents experimental data on the evaluation and characteristics of reproductive qualities of cows of different genotypes in a comparative aspect. To conduct research on the farm, 2 experimental groups of Aberdeen-Angus cows of different genotypes were formed: group I – cows of Estonian breeding, group II – cows of domestic breeding. Reproductive qualities of Aberdeen-Angus cows of domestic and Estonian breeding were studied in “Kolos” LLP-firm of Denisovsky district of Kostanay region: age at the first insemination and hotel, live weight at the first insemination, duration of the dry period, pregnancy, service period, interbody period. The parameters of the indices of reproductive characteristics of cows of different genotypes – the coefficient of reproductive ability (KRA) and the Doha index are calculated. It was found that the obtained results of the studied cows of different genotypes do not vary significantly. Indexes: KRA is 0.87 for Estonian – bred cows, 0.89 for domestic-bred cows, and the values of the Doha index are 42.3% and 43.2%, respectively, which characterize the fertility of cows as an average value. However, according to many calculated parameters, the reproductive qualities of cows of Estonian breeding are superior to cows of domestic breeding.

Introduction:
Efficient planning is crucial for the safe evacuation of dialysis patients during a disaster. The lack of evidence-based approaches for evacuating these patients highlights the need to explore the associated challenges and develop a comprehensive plan to address the unique vulnerabilities of this cohort.
Methods:
Information was gathered using three methods: First, a thorough literature search was conducted. Secondly, a focus group was established, comprising experts in nephrology, biomedical engineering and safety engineering, as well as senior dialysis nurses. Finally, the research team visited a dialysis centre to examine the dialysis machines and engage in discussions regarding evacuation plans.
Results:
Three procedures were identified to promptly release patients from a dialysis machine: the ‘clamp and cut’ method, the ‘clamp and cap’ method, and the hand crank method. Factors such as  the  size  and weight of the  dialysis  machine,  battery  life,  and potential blood loss resulting from immediate interruption of the dialysis process were noted as important considerations.
Conclusion:
It is essential that dialysis patients be recognized as a vulnerable group, and that time and effort be invested in the design of an evacuation plan specific to their needs.
