Authors: Can Hamit , Minkovska Daniela
Published: January 2020

Energy is considered the main input for economic and industrial development. In this context, it is important that countries develop sustainable energy policies in order to meet economic growth and energy demand. Government policies play a critical role in economic growth and incentives for innovation. This chapter summarizes Bulgaria's energy policies as an increasingly important energy transit country due to its strategic location. These policies were presented in line with the European Union energy policies and the solutions of the characteristics of the country. Some of the targets to be implemented are as follows: ensuring energy supply security, achieving RES share targets, energy efficiency improvements, development of a competitive energy market, safe energy needs and protection of consumers, establishment of the necessary infrastructure and diversification of energy resources, strengthening the external relations and solidarity coordinated in the field of energy.

“It Fits My Business”
Authors: Çapraz Burak
Published: January 2020

For many years, companies have tried to keep the public as close partners. In this bilateral relationship, financial gains of the companies have raised public views on the distribution of these gains. Likewise, regulations and standards determined by supranational institutions such as the United Nations forced companies to give higher priority on CSR activities. The primary purpose of this research is to explain the relation between CSR activities and the preferability of these activities among companies. Summative content analysis is conducted on data collected from the websites of the top 100 companies in the Turkish BIST 100 Stock Index. Findings show that CSR activity choices differ among industries, and these choices unveil related and unrelated differentiation in CSR activities.

Authors: Tarnanidis Theodore , Tsaples Georgios , Papathanasiou Jason , Armenia Stefano
Published: January 2020

The current research provides a mapping of the most important instigators and victims of racism abuse in football. Based on the literature review findings, it is observed that in sports, there exists an upward trend of racism incidents among different stakeholders on a daily basis, from the administrative workforce and distinct policy makers to athletes and fans. In order to investigate this trend, data was collected through the implementation of a specific project, called “BRISWA,” which is an EU-funded project that deals with the problem of racism in football and in sports in general (funded by the Erasmus+ Programme - Sport Collaborative Partnership). The survey was conducted in the field of football in six countries, Italy, Greece, Romania, Serbia, Hungary, and Bulgaria. The survey took place from August 2017 to January 2018. Our sample included people of all ages (n = 672). Data was analyzed through a combination of exploratory factor analysis and multi-criteria decision analysis. We have modeled the two distinct constructs, by running principal component analysis and then on the ranked data followed the results of the multi-criteria decision aid analysis with the Promethee software. A thorough discussion and conclusions are given for the improvement of regulations at a European level, to tackle the incidents of racism abuse in the sphere of football.

Fractional Order PIλDµ Control Design for a Class of Cyber-Physical Systems with Fractional Order Time-Delay models
Authors: Boudana Marwa , Ladaci Samir , Loiseau Jean-Jacques
Published: January 2020

The control of cyber-physical systems (CPS) is a great challenge for researchers in control theory and engineering mainly because of delays induced by merging computation, communication, and control of physical processes. Consequently, control solutions for time-delay systems can be applied efficiently for many CPS system configurations. In this article, a fractional order PIλ and PIλDµ control design is investigated for a class of fractional order time-delay systems. The proposed control design approach is simple and efficient. The controller parameter's adjustment is achieved in two steps: first, the relay approach is used to compute satisfactory classical PID coefficients, namely kp, Ti and Td. Then, the fractional orders λ and µ are optimized using performance criteria. Simulation results show the efficiency of the proposed design technique and its ability to enhance the PID control performance.

Published: January 2020

In light of the increasing recognition of digital literacy in learning and education generally, and in English Foreign Language (EFL) instruction specifically, the purpose of this research article is to examine the impact of digital literacy on EFL students' academic writing performance. The subjects of this study were 80 third year EFL students from M'sila University. The research instruments included a digital literacy questionnaire and a writing performance test which were given to the study participants to answer. The relationship between students' digital literacy and their academic writing performance was analyzed using the Spearman's correlation coefficient. The results revealed that there is a high positive correlation coefficient between the research variables, which was statistically significant at the level (α = 0,01). Therefore, it was concluded that digital literacy is an effective factor for the development of English academic writing performance.
Results-Based Project Follow-Up
Authors: Jonathan Gideon Mekonnen
Published: January 2020

Results-based management (RBM) has become the choice of many governmental and non-governmental organisations, and not-for-profit agencies engaged in development projects. Despite its widespread adoption, tools and methods are still being developed to complement the framework. One of such methods sought by practitioners, according to the extant literature, is a method for project follow-up. Employing design science methodology, the study aimed to develop a new method that can be used to evaluate the gap between design and actual outcome of development projects. The research has resulted in a new method which proposed ten steps to perform project follow-up. The high-level requirements were evaluated using informed arguments. To warranty validity and impartiality of the evaluation of the method, the internal and external properties were evaluated by 37 qualified experts. The research has identified and suggested other methods that can be used to complement the designed method. The contribution of the study and potential future research directions are presented.

Published: January 2020

The social dimension of alignment plays an important role in business-IT alignment (BITA). The study aimed to get in-depth knowledge of barriers in BITA by identifying and analyzing factors that inhibit alignment from the social perspective using as case study the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) of the Republic of Indonesia. Based on the data collected through semi-structured interviews and internal documents from this public organization in Indonesia, the data was thematic analyzed. The findings of the study are 15 social barriers in BITA in MEMR from which the following five are new social barriers in BITA: uncoordinated IT initiatives; sectoral ego; frequent rotation of executives in organizational structure; poor understanding of IT for growing; and the lack of support by the business in IT initiatives continuation. The findings of the study can be considered by other public organizations that aim to improve their alignment between business and IT, and finally their public service delivery.

Authors: Singh Khundrakpam Johnson , Haokip Janggunlun , Chanu Usham Sanjota
Published: January 2020

In the new era of computers, everyone relies on the internet for basic day-to-day activities to sophisticated and secret tasks. The cyber threats are increasing, not only theft and manipulation of someone's information, but also forcing the victim to deny other requests. A DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack, which is one of the serious issues in today's cyber world needs to be detected and their advance towards the server should be blocked. In the article, the authors are focusing mainly on preventive measures of different types of DDoS attacks using multiple IPtables rules and Windows firewall advance security settings configuration, which would be feasibly free on any PC. The IPtables when appropriately selected and implemented can establish a relatively secure barrier for the system and the external environment.
Securing Communication 2FA Using Post-Quantic Cryptosystem
Authors: Yacouba Kouraogo , Ghizlane Orhanou , Said Elhajji
Published: January 2020

Many financial institutions interact with their customers via short message services (SMS), which is today one of the fastest and most powerful means of communicating information around the world. This information can sometimes be an access code such as the unique password (OTP) for two-factor authentication (2FA) or banking information and personal identities. All this data is confidential, and it is a major disadvantage to send them since an SMS service does not provide data encryption during network transmission and on mobile. Recently, OTPs via SMS have suffered from strong attacks that intercept messages. In order to avoid attacks and offer effective content security to 2FA credentials sent via SMS, the authors propose an SMS encryption mechanism using a post quantic cryptosystem quasi-cyclic MDPC and an electronic signature of the OTPs. Finally, this article performs an implementation and a security analysis of the proposal.
Improving Effectiveness of Process Model Matchers Using Wordnet Glosses
Authors: Abdelkader Mostefai
Published: January 2020

Process model matching is a key activity in many business process management tasks. It is an activity that consists of detecting an alignment between process models by finding similar activities in two process models. This article proposes a method based on WordNet glosses to improve the effectiveness of process model matchers. The proposed method is composed of three steps. In the first step, all activities of the two BPs are extracted. Second, activity labels are expanded using word glosses and finally, similar activities are detected using the cosine similarity metric. Two experiments were conducted on well-known datasets to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. In the first one, an alignment is computed using the cosine similarity metric only and without a process of expansion. While, in the second experiment, the cosine similarity metric is applied to the expanded activities using glosses. The results of the experiments were promising and show that expanding activities using WordNet glosses improves the effectiveness of process model matchers.

The article highlights the important factors such as aesthetics, ambience, spatial layout and functionality, symbols, and artefacts in the online game, and also the engagement of the customer through cognitive and emotional responses. Social interaction and psychological engagement were also found to be important aspect of the electronic servicescape for online gamers. Several implications for marketing strategies is presented in the article for designers like managing colour, design, and image placement so that the website/app is less crowded, easy to navigate, and faster. In an online gaming experience, gamers tend to evaluate cognitive factors in the website and form their behaviours towards investing time and money in the game.
The Taste Receptor TAS1R3 Regulates Small Intestinal Tuft Cell Homeostasis
Authors: Howitt Michael R , Cao Y Grace , Gologorsky Matthew B , Li Jessica A , Haber Adam L , Biton Moshe , Lang Jessica , Michaud Monia , Regev Aviv , Garrett Wendy S
Published: January 2020

Tuft cells are an epithelial cell type critical for initiating type 2 immune responses to parasites and protozoa in the small intestine. To respond to these stimuli, intestinal tuft cells use taste chemosensory signaling pathways, but the role of taste receptors in type 2 immunity is poorly understood. In this study, we show that the taste receptor TAS1R3, which detects sweet and umami in the tongue, also regulates tuft cell responses in the distal small intestine. BALB/c mice, which have an inactive form of TAS1R3, as well as Tas1r3-deficient C57BL6/J mice both have severely impaired responses to tuft cell–inducing signals in the ileum, including the protozoa Tritrichomonas muris and succinate. In contrast, TAS1R3 is not required to mount an immune response to the helminth Heligmosomoides polygyrus, which infects the proximal small intestine. Examination of uninfected Tas1r3−/− mice revealed a modest reduction in the number of tuft cells in the proximal small intestine but a severe decrease in the distal small intestine at homeostasis. Together, these results suggest that TAS1R3 influences intestinal immunity by shaping the epithelial cell landscape at steady-state.
Two-graphs and the Embedded Topology of Smooth Quartics and its Bitangent Lines
Authors: Bannai Shinzo , Ohno Momoko
Published: January 2020

In this paper, we study how to distinguish the embedded topology of a smooth quartic and its bitangent lines. In order to do this, we introduce the concept of two-graphs and switching classes from graph theory. This new method improves previous results about a quartic and three bitangent lines considered by E. Artal Bartolo and J. Vallès, four bitangent lines considered by the authors and H. Tokunaga, and enables us to distinguish the embedded topology of a smooth quartic and five or more bitangent lines. As an application, we obtain a new Zariski 5-tuple and a Zariski 9-tuple for arrangements consisting of a smooth quartic and five of its bitangent lines and six of its bitangent lines, respectively.
Operators on Anti-dual pairs: Self-adjoint Extensions and the Strong Parrott Theorem
Authors: Tarcsay Zsigmond , Titkos Tamás
Published: January 2020

The aim of this paper is to develop an approach to obtain self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators acting on anti-dual pairs. The main advantage of such a result is that it can be applied for structures not carrying a Hilbert space structure or a normable topology. In fact, we will show how hermitian extensions of linear functionals of involutive algebras can be governed by means of their induced operators. As an operator theoretic application, we provide a direct generalization of Parrott’s theorem on contractive completion of 2 by 2 block operator-valued matrices. To exhibit the applicability in noncommutative integration, we characterize hermitian extendibility of symmetric functionals defined on a left ideal of a $C^{\ast }$-algebra.

Primeira pessoa do plural em dossiê da Revista Cult: traços de modalização epistêmica e de diferentes instâncias de sentido vinculadas às categorias ethos, pathos e logos da Retórica
Authors: Bini Renan Paulo , Sella Aparecida Feola
Published: January 2020

Investiga-se, neste artigo, o uso da primeira pessoa do plural em recortes do texto Consciência e lutas feministas: conquistas e desafios no Brasil, texto que apresenta o dossiê Percepções do Feminino e Ações Feministas, publicado na Revista Cult/Edição 210/2016. Considera-se que essa pessoa do discurso pode agregar ao texto modalização epistêmica e diferentes instâncias de sentido vinculadas às categorias ethos, pathos e logos da Retórica. A base teórica desta pesquisa é composta, principalmente, por pesquisas sobre Modalização e Retórica e também orientações da Sociolinguística relativas ao uso do pronome “nós”. As análises dos recortes selecionados demonstram que a primeira pessoa do plural apresenta, no texto, três dimensões de sentido. Nota-se que, apesar de se tratar de uma pessoa do discurso, o recurso linguístico orienta os sentidos no texto, se considerada devidamente atrelada ao conteúdo dos enunciados e à imagem que se constrói do produtor do texto com a provável plateia.
Apontamentos teóricos sobre o humor e seus recursos
Authors: Pincelli Renato , Américo Marcos
Published: January 2020

Neste artigo são reunidas e apontadas teorias e definições em torno do humor e de conceitos correlatos, como comédia e riso. Para tanto, são expostas teorias consagradas na área, tais como as da superioridade, do alívio e da incongruência, assim como outras menos destacadas como as teorias conceitual e da violação.  Em seguida, são apresentadas definições dos recursos humorísticos como a ironia, o sarcasmo, a sátira, o exagero, o estereótipo, dentre outras. Esses recursos linguísticos estão por trás do funcionamento dos textos humorísticos e considera-se importante entendê-los antes da análise de qualquer material do gênero. Esses apontamentos têm, portanto, o objetivo de servir como base para estudos acadêmicos sobre o humor nas mais diversas áreas do conhecimento.
Mário de Andrade: Um (socio)linguista folk
Authors: Bonermann Neila Barbosa de Oliveira , Cox Maria Inês Pagliarini
Published: January 2020

Este estudo foi inspirado pelo artigo de Paveau (2018) sobre a linguística folk e sobre a possibilidade de não linguistas produzirem saberes linguísticos. Fugindo ao binarismo cartesiano – linguistas versus não linguistas –, ela propõe um continuum que vai do linguista profissional ao homem comum. Foi impossível, no momento da leitura desse artigo, não pensar em Mário de Andrade como um linguista folk. Desejando estabelecer uma norma linguística brasileira, formalmente coerente com a expressão literária nacional, até então refém do padrão lusitano, o escritor modernista empenhou-se, numa visada globalizante, por meio do projeto da Gramatiquinha, para captar o falar médio dos brasileiros que identificaria falantes rurais e urbanos, das diversas regiões do país e de todas as classes sociais. No contínuo proposto por Paveau (2018), há um lugar para escritores e ensaístas que realizam descrições e intervenções no padrão linguístico. É nessa perspectiva que se reflete sobre enunciados de Mário que fazem dele uma espécie de sociolinguista avant la lettre.
Estereótipos básicos e estereótipos opostos: Representações do dialeto caipira em discursos institucionais e científicos
Authors: De Araujo Lígia Mara Boin Menossi , Ruiz Marco Antonio Almeida
Published: January 2020

Neste artigo, com base na dimensão representacional da linguística popular, proposta por Achard-Bayle e Paveau (2008), inicialmente, objetivamos testar a fecundidade da teoria dos estereótipos básicos e opostos, proposta por Possenti (2010) em discursos de diferentes campos, produzidos sobre o dialeto caipira. Na sequência, refletimos como essa teoria brasileira de discurso poderia contribuir para o burilamento do olhar sobre esse dialeto no ensino e, por conseguinte, compreender a circulação do estereótipo do caipira em nossa sociedade. Com base nesses objetivos, mobilizamos como corpus de análise, primeiramente um conjunto de enunciados postados em site oficial, destinado a professores de língua portuguesa. Tais enunciados constituem um plano de aula que tem como temática o caipira e seu dialeto. Como corpus auxiliar, frequentamos também alguns dos discursos científicos provenientes dos estudos do Projeto História do Português Paulista, o Projeto Caipira que, nas últimas décadas, produziu trabalhos que buscam a desmistificação do estereótipo do caipira como um sujeito matuto ou ingênuo, bobo ou inteligente etc.
Architecture in Black
Authors: Fields Darell Wayne
Published: January 2020

Based on analysis of historical, philosophical, and semiotic texts, Architecture in Black presents a systematic examination of the theoretical relationship between architecture and blackness. Now updated, this original study draws on a wider range of case studies, highlighting the racial techniques that can legitimize modern historicity, philosophy and architectural theory.

Arguing that architecture, as an aesthetic practice, and blackness, as a linguistic practice, operate within the same semiotic paradigm, Darell Fields employs a technique whereby works are related through the repetition and revision of their semiotic structures. Fields reconstructs the genealogy of a black racial subject, represented by the simultaneous reading of a range of canonical texts from Hegel to Saussure to Henry Louis Gates, Jr.

Combining an historical survey of racial discourse with new readings resulting from advanced semiotic techniques doubling as spatial arrangements, Architecture in Black is an important contribution to studies of the racial in Western thought and its impact on architecture, space and time.
Comparative Politics of Exclusion in Europe and the Americas: Religious, Sectarian, and Racial Boundary Making since the Reformation
Authors: Aktürk Şener
Published: January 2020

Based on a critical reading of three recent books, I argue that the exclusion of Jews and Muslims, the two major non-Christian religious groups in Europe and the Americas, has continued on the basis of ethnic, racial, ideological, and quasi-rational justifications, instead of or in addition to religious justifications, since the Reformation. Furthermore, I argue that the institutionally orchestrated collective stigmatization and persecution of Jews and Muslims predated the Reformation, going back to the Fourth Lateran Council under Pope Innocent III in 1215. The notion of Corpus Christianum and Observant movements in the late Middle Ages, the elective affinity of liberalism and racism in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and the divergence in religious norms at present are critically evaluated as potential causes of ethnoreligious exclusion.

When the Westboro Baptist Church Came to Vassar College: A Quixotic Story of Foot Washing, Activist Pedagogy, and the Secular Liberal Arts
Authors: Kahn Jonathon
Published: January 2020

In 2013, the Westboro Baptist Church announced plans to picket Vassar College. This article recounts the quixotic attempt by student activists and myself to organize an embodied and affective form of counter-protest: a campus-wide act of foot-washing. Students were drawn to foot-washing because it represented an alternative model of knowledge formation based on awakening the affects of interaction and not achieving rational sovereignty. Despite failing, an urgent pedagogical case remains for reimagining ethical relations on campus. In light of the current political climate, the challenges of higher education may well be in engaging feelings that pass along campus affective circuits.

Science, Technology, and the Religious Imagination in Modern Europe and America: An Inquiry
Authors: White Christopher
Published: January 2020

This article points to the surprising role of secular scientific ideas in stimulating new metaphors and ways of thinking about religious concepts. It examines three cases during the last century in Europe and America—how religious people selectively used ideas about electricity, how they re-purposed ideas related to higher-dimensional space, and how they deployed uncanny ideas in quantum mechanics. It shows that many have used these scientific ideas to work themselves out of religious systems they no longer understood, get leverage against dominant ideologies that they found vexing, or develop new, enchanted views of the universe around them.

Authors: Roa Rocha Julio César
Published: January 2020

The following essay reports on a short exploratory qualitative study given to pre-service English teachers who were studying the class of linguistics. In the linguistics class, they studied a chapter related to how adults learn a language, and the phases they go through. Due to the relevance of this topic, the instructor asked pre-service English teachers to reflect and examine on their learning critically from two different perspectives - my reflection as a language learner and my reflection on learning. This essay used a series of open and reflective questions as the primary source of data and asked 20 pre-service English teachers to write a two-page reflection paper about their experience learning English. For the purpose of this essay, data analysis was conducted using the grounded theory approach that involved comparing a piece of data with others. Eight essays were selected using random sampling. The results exposed the different challenges and strategies that pre-service English teachers have gone through so as to learn the language and how these have changed along the years. The essay presents both some theoretical background and challenges.

Sharia in het Westen (I)
Authors: Berger Maurits S.
Published: January 2020

Sharia in the West (I)

The notion of ‘sharia in the West’ is by now fairly well established, both in social, political and scientific circles, but both the terms ‘sharia’ and ‘West’ remain difficult to define. It is therefore striking that the combination of these two terms is used with such self-evidence. This article wants to answer the question: what exactly is the sharia that Western Muslims arguably want, and how is this sharia received in the West? To this end, a model is presented that provides a description of the complex interaction between sharia as practiced by Western Muslims on the one hand, and the conditions that the Western environment sets for it on the other. The model shows that ‘sharia’ cannot be compared to a law system, and that the Western environment has a major influence on the extent and ways in which Muslims apply sharia. From a Western perspective, the model shows that sharia issues are mainly discussed in legal terms, while most controversies are not of a legal nature, but rather a cultural one.

Religion, balancing of interests and neutrality

Restrictions imposed by the state on the exercise of religion are always the result of a weighing of interests by a judge, an administrative body or a legislator. This weighing of interests is strongly influenced by the context within the exercise of religion take place. In this article four different spheres are distinguished: the internal religious sphere, the public sphere, the sphere of private institutions and the government sphere. The particular relationship that these spheres have with neutrality characterizes the balancing of interests. This explains and justifies why wearing religious clothing may be restricted in some situations and not in others.

Authors: Juchacz Wiesław
Published: January 2020

W opracowaniu po krótkim przedstawieniu jak wyglądało ściganie przestępstwa szpiegostwa w Polsce od czasu uzyskania niepodległości opisano stan aktualny. Omówiono stronę podmiotową i przedmiotową. Przedstawiono kto może być jego podmiotem oraz scharakteryzowano grożące sankcje.
Opisano znamiona czterech typów przestępstwa szpiegostwa o których mowa w art. 130 k.k.:– podstawowy, polegający na braniu udziału w działalności obcego wywiadu (§ 1);
– kwalifikowany, gdzie okoliczność kwalifikującą stanowi udzielanie obcemu wywiadowi wiadomości, których przekazanie może wyrządzić szkodę Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej (§ 2);
– polegający na gromadzeniu, przechowywaniu lub wchodzeniu do systemu informatycznego w celu uzyskania informacji, aby następnie udzielić ich obcemu wywiadowi, lub też zgłaszaniu gotowości działania na jego rzecz przeciwko Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej (§ 3);

Przedstawiono kiedy będzie mogła mieć zastosowanie instytucja czynnego żalu.
ADMINISTRACYJNOPRAWNE INSTRUMENTY DYSCYPLINOWANIA DŁUŻNIKÓW ALIMENTACYJNYCH – WYBRANE ZAGADNIENIA MATERIALNOPRAWNE I PROCESOWE
Authors: Kosicki Tomasz
Published: January 2020

Problematyka dotycząca nieuiszczania alimentów przez osoby do tego obowiązane jest wciąż zagadnieniem bardzo aktualnym. Problem ten dotyka obecnie blisko milion dzieci w Polsce. Bierność dłużników doprowadziła do tego, że ustawodawca wprowadził do polskiego systemu prawnego administracyjnoprawne instrumenty, których celem jest dyscyplinowanie dłużników alimentacyjnych. Skutki zastosowania tych instrumentów mogą być bardzo dotkliwe, czego doskonałym przykładem jest sankcja w postaci odebrania prawa jazdy przez uprawniony do tego organ administracji publicznej. Celem artykułu jest syntetyczne przedstawienie wyżej wskazanych instrumentów, których materialnoprawne podstawy wprowadza ustawa z dnia 7 września 2007 r. o pomocy osobom uprawnionym do alimentów (tekst jedn. Dz.U. z 2019 r., poz. 670 ze zm.). Pierwsza część pracy traktuje ogólnie o obowiązku alimentacyjnym, jego zakresie, treści oraz funkcjach. W drugiej omówiono czynności poprzedzających wszczęcie postępowań administracyjnych wobec dłużników alimentacyjnych takich jak np. wywiad alimentacyjny. Następnie analizie poddano dwa ściśle ze sobą powiązane postępowania administracyjne: w sprawie uznania dłużnika alimentacyjnego za uchylającego się od zobowiązań alimentacyjnych oraz w sprawie odebrania prawa jazdy.
Przestępstwo wywierania wpływu na czynności urzędowe konstytucyjnego organu RP (art. 128 §3 kk)- wybrane zagadnienia sporne
Authors: Lachowski Jerzy
Published: January 2020

Przestępstwo wywierania wpływu na konstytucyjne organy RP, stypizowane w art. 128§3kk zwraca uwagę zwłaszcza w kontekście takich wydarzeń, jak choćby blokowanie mównicy sejmowej przez posłów opozycji podczas 33. posiedzenia Sejmu i zmuszenie Marszałka Sejmu do przeniesienia obrad do sali kolumnowej. Rodzi się również pytanie, czy blokowanie możliwości wyjazdu z terenu sejmu realizuje znamiona opisane w ww. przepisie. Kwestie te można rozstrzygnąć po przeanalizowaniu strony przedmiotowej przestępstwa z art. 128§3kk, zwłaszcza po rozważeniu czy zachowania takie realizują znamię przemocy. Trzeba jednak wskazać, że nie tylko ten element rzeczonego przestępstwa wywołuje wątpliwości i spory w doktrynie prawa karnego. Nie jest wszak jasne, czy do istoty groźby bezprawnej, charakteryzującej sposób zachowania sprawcy przestępstwa z art. 128§3kk należy obiektywne wywołanie obawy jej spełnienia. Wątpliwości budzi także sam charakter prawny tego przestępstwa, nie ma bowiem zgody w literaturze co do materialnego czy też formalnego jego charakteru. Wreszcie spory dotyczą także przedmiotu czynności na gruncie tego przepisu, który raz ujmowany jest szerzej, a raz węziej.
Zagadnienia pojęcia i ustroju samorządu terytorialnego w Polsce
Authors: Orlikowska Justyna
Published: January 2020

W artykule przedstawione zostały elementy konstrukcji prawnej ustroju współczesnego samorządu terytorialnego. Autorka na podstawie literatury przedmiotu opisała i zdefiniowała pojęcie decentralizacji oraz pojęcie samorządu terytorialnego. Dodatkowo zostały przedstawione poszczególne elementy składające się na pojęcie samorządu terytorialnego: element podmiotowy, którym jest społeczność lokalna oraz element przedmiotowy czyli wykonywanie przekazanych ustawą zadań publicznych. Jako istotę i trzon samorządu terytorialnego autorka wskazała wykonywanie zadań własnych, bez których samorząd terytorialny nie powinien być w ogóle powoływany. Część artykułu poświęcona jest również zagadnieniom elementom ustroju finansowego samorządu terytorialnego. W tej części autorka dokonała oceny systemu dochodów wspólnot samorządowych i uznała, że system dochodów na szczeblu powiatu i województwa samorządowego cechuje brak stabilności, trwałości i wymaga on doskonalenia.
BŁĘDY KOMUNIKACYJNO-POZNAWCZE W ARGUMENTACJI PRAWNICZEJ A UZASADNIANIE ORZECZEŃ SĄDOWYCH
Authors: Tecław Barbara
Published: January 2020

W niniejszym artykule podjęto próbę wskazania konieczności redefiniowania pojęcia sofizmatu w argumentacji prawniczej na gruncie polskiej teorii prawa poprzez odniesienie się do twierdzenia zwanego fallacy not fallacious. Celem wykazania doniosłości dyskutowanej kwestii autorka dokonała zwięzłego przedstawienia trudności definicyjnych z pojęciem sofizmatu, perswazji, manipulacji, chwytów erystycznych i technik komunikacyjno-poznawczych. Na przykładzie treści wybranych uzasadnień orzeczeń sądowych zostało zobrazowane zagadnienie „niesofistycznego sofizmatu”, uzasadniające tezę, w myśl której o tym czy dany argument podniesiony w dyskursie sądowym jest poprawny, decyduje kontekst wypowiedzi.
Charakter prawny korekty deklaracji składanej po samoobliczeniu podatku – jako metoda wymiaru i poboru podatku
Authors: Wróbel Justyna
Published: January 2020

Obowiązek podatkowy powstaje z chwilą, gdy do konkretnego podmiotu nastąpi dany stan faktyczny, który implikuje powstanie zobowiązania podatkowego. Obowiązek podatkowy powstaje samoistnie ex lege, z mocy samego prawa, z chwilą zaistnienia zdarzenia określonego w ustawie podatkowej. Zobowiązanie podatkowe może powstać w dwojaki sposób: z dniem zaistnienia zdarzenia, z którym ustawa wiąże powstanie takiego zobowiązania albo z dniem doręczenia decyzji organu podatkowego ustalającej wysokość tego zobowiązania. Przy udziale techniki samoobliczenia podatku pobór i wymiar podatku jest dokonywany przez przez samych podatników. Samoobliczenie podatku jest kwestią złożoną, obejmującą poszczególne etapy: ujawnienie stanu faktycznego podlegającego opodatkowaniu, subsumpcja obowiązku podatkowego oraz obliczenie podatku przez zobowiązanego. Korektę zobowiązania podatkowego rozumie się jako uprawienie do dokonania zmiany, pierwotnego, błędnego – w ocenie korygującego – samowymiaru, który został zaliczony, pod względem charakteru prawnego, do wymiaru wtórnego, ale zwyczajnego, gdyż nie wymaga interwencji organów podatkowych. Deklaratoryjny charakter prawny deklaracji podatkowej składanej po samoobliczeniu jest więc następczym do pierwotnie złożonej deklaracji. Korekta deklaracji prowadzi do zmian wysokości powstałego już zobowiązania podatkowego ze skutkiem wstecznym.
Wpływ przyjętego modelu uszkodzenia na ocenę trwałości dźwigarów mostów niskowodnych
Authors: Mańko Zbigniew , Duchaczek Artur
Published: January 2020

Autorzy artykułu skoncentrowali się na ocenie trwałości eksploatacyjnej stalowych dźwigarów mostów niskowodnych przy zastosowaniu podstawowych równań mechaniki pękania. Podstawowym parametrem wykorzystywanym podczas prowadzenia obliczeń jest współczynnik intensywności naprężeń K. Wielkość ta jest przydatna zarówno w przypadku pękania kruchego (tzw. kryterium siłowe), jak i pośredniego między kruchym a ciągliwym (m.in. diagramy zniszczenia).
Logistyczne aspekty wojny w Zatoce Perskiej w 1991 r.
Authors: Bodziany Marek
Published: January 2020

Wojna w Zatoce Perskiej rozpatrywana w charakterze retrospektywnym, stanowi sztandarowy przykład nowoczesnej wojny opartej na wyrafinowanych technologiach we wszystkich jej obszarach. O jej nowoczesności świadczy szereg czynników, z których na pierwszy plan wysuwa się jej powietrzno-lądowo-morski wymiar oraz czasowo-przestrzenny charakter. Drugi determinant zdaje się odgrywać kluczową rolę w procesie planowania i organizacji przerzutu strategicznego sił wraz z zaopatrzeniem niezbędnym do walki.
Expérimentation d’un dispositif d’accompagnement axé sur les forces afin de former des stagiaires selon la psychopédagogie du bien-être
Authors: Goyette Nancy
Published: January 2020

Cet article présente l’expérimentation d’un dispositif d’accompagnement des stagiaires axé sur les forces, en contexte de formation initiale universitaire. En s’appuyant sur un corpus théorique et l’autoanalyse des pratiques d’une superviseure, ce dispositif a été mis en oeuvre auprès d’une dizaine de stagiaires. Les concepts de psychopédagogie du bien-être, d’identité professionnelle positive, ainsi que des postures des superviseurs permettront d’explorer en quoi une approche axée sur les forces lors de l’accompagnement de stagiaires peut les aider au développement de leurs compétences professionnelles, mais aussi à un développement identitaire positif afin de faire face aux multiples défis de la profession.
Fables, énigmes, paraboles : les contes allégoriques des Petits de la guenon
Authors: Nissim Liana
Published: January 2020

Cet article propose une analyse des techniques d’écriture du roman Les petits de la guenon de Boubacar Boris Diop, ou plutôt de son architecture rhétorique, qui recourt très souvent à des énigmes, des fables, des apologues, des paraboles, bref à des genres s’ordonnant autour de la figure majeure de l’allégorie. En choisissant pour guide les réseaux thématiques du miroir et du singe, le roman s’avère un fascinant enchevêtrement de récits et de figures allégoriques qui, d’une part, exemplifient l’esthétique et la vision du monde de l’auteur et, d’autre part, attestent l’innovation profonde et convaincante du roman africain.
