Kant and the “awakening” from the rationalist principle of sufficient reason
Authors:   National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, Chorny Victor
Published: December 2020

The paper inspects Anderson’s central thesis that Kant’s dogmatic slumber was interrupted by Hume’s critique of metaphysics (rational theology) in his Enquiry concerning Human Understanding, namely, by his critique of the rationalist principle of sufficient reason, which lies at the heart of dogmatic proofs of God’s existence. I recreate the meaning of “Hume’s objection,” define the larger role the principle of sufficient reason plays in Kant’s philosophy, and evaluate the explanatory potential of Anderson’s interpretation in view of Kant’s early and critical texts, as well as his other autobiographical statements (such as his famous letter to Garve). Although Anderson’s hypothesis seems well-founded and even explicates the hidden connection between the entire critical project and the refutation of Spinozism, I argue it is almost impossible to reconcile it with the current research in Kant’s Entwicklungsgeschichte.

Defining the Genome and Gametes of a General Collective Intelligence Based Smart City
Authors: Williams Andy E
Published: December 2020

Applying General Collective Intelligence or GCI creates the potential to greatly increase the complexity of problems that might be navigated through collective reasoning processes, and to greatly increase capacity for cooperation in so that collective reasoning might be executed at much greater speed and scale. GCI also aligns cooperation so those outcomes can be sustained. Applying GCI to design processes creates the potential for designs for products and services, as well as manufacturing methods for products and delivery methods for services, that are coherent on a scale that might not have been considered before. Where smart city initiatives look to introduce sustainability into housing and city design, GCI based design aims to gain the capacity to self-assemble projects in a way that optimizes sustainability across all initiatives. This paper explores how the full implementation of GCI in design defines a genome with the capacity to store collectively optimized processes, and how the full implementation of GCI in manufacturing and construction defines gametes with the capacity to be collectively optimized in this way.

Korelasi Fungsional Kalender Islam dan Pembayaran Zakat
Authors: Syarif Muhammad Rasywan , Naif Naif
Published: December 2020

Tulisan ini menjelaskan sejauh mana pengaruh kalender Islam sebagai kalender keseharian umat Islam dari berbagai aspek, baik ibadah maupun muamalah. Adapun jenis penelitian kualitatif kepustakaan (library research) melalui pendekatan normatif kasuistik. Metode analisis data dalam penelitian ini bersifat kualitatif dengan penalaran deduktif. Penalaran deduktif yang disebut juga dengan penalaran bersifat normatif menjabarkan ideal normatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukan di antara salah satu keunggulan praktisnya dibandingkan kalender masehi adalah selisih 11 hari setiap tahun. Betapa besar urgensi penetapan waktu kalender Islam atau Hijriah yang berkaitan dengan ibadah khususnya zakat fitrah dan zakat maal. Eksitensi Kalender Hijriah dapat menguntungkan dan mendapatkan pahala atas keabsahan ibadah sedangkan tidak mempergunakan kalender Hijriah akan bermuara pada kerugian. Sehingga wajib umat Islam melaksanakan kewajibannya dalam pembayaran zakat menggunakan kalender Islam atau sesuai dengan peredaran bulan bukan peredaran Matahari/kalender Romawi. Sebab alangkah naifnya mengatas namakan ibadah namun tidak mempergunakan kalender Islam. Konsekuensinya, hal tersebut berdampak kepada aktifitas dan transaksi ekonomi dengan pertimbangan bahwa pada setiap 30 tahun kalender Masehi tentu menguntungkan satu tahun kalender Hijriah.

Published: December 2020

Summary. Background: It is known that more than half of the genes encoding human proteins are regulated by various microRNAs (miRNAs, miR), the expression of which may be associated with various pathological conditions. At the same time, the question of assessing the relationship between the expression of particular miRNAs and the aggressive molecular subtype of endometrial cancer remains open. Aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the expression of miR-34a, miR-125b, miR-142 and miR-101 in endometrioid carcinomas of the endometrium (ECE) and the features of the disease course. Materials and Methods: The samples of surgical material of 51 patients with ECE (mean age 59.8 ± 7.1 years), I–III stage were investigated using morphological, immunohistochemical methods, real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), cytofluorometry. Results: In endometrial tumors with high proliferation index (> Me), the expression of miR-34a, miR-142 and miR-125b significantly decreased (1.8, 2.7 and 1.5 times, respectively) compared with those in ECE with low proliferation index (< Me). The expression of all studied miRNAs was lower in G3 tumors and those that deeply invaded the myometrium compared to G2 carcinomas and tumors with an invasion of < 1/2 myometrium and significantly decreased in tumors of patients with low stage III compared with stage I–II. The high (> Me) microvessel density in ECE was associated with a significant decrease of miR-125b and miR-101 expression, and the presence of signs of epithelial-mesenchymal transition — with a decreased expression of miR-34a and miR-101. Conclusions: The study revealed a significant heterogeneity of expression of miR-34a, miR-125b, miR-142 and miR-101 in ECE, which is associated with changes in morphofunctional characteristics of endometrial carcinoma.

Published: December 2020

Increasing digital technology has revolutionized the life of people. The banking system in today’s world is open to threats of fraud and cyber-attacks. Since todays banking system is built on centralized databases, it is easy for an attacker to penetrate in any such database which will easily compromise all the information and data of the customers of the bank. This vulnerability of today’s banking system can be reduced by re-building the banking systems on top of block chain technology, which will remove the centralized database architecture and decentralize the data over the block chain, thus reducing the threat of database being hacked. Since the transactions over the block chain technology is verified by each and every nodes of the chain, it will make the transactions more and more secure thus making the overall banking system faster and secure.

Published: December 2020

The process of grouping a set of physical objects into classes of similar objects is called clustering. Clustering is a process of grouping the data into classes or cluster so that objects within a cluster have high similarity in comparison to one another, but are very dissimilar to objects in other clusters. Dissimilarities are assessed based on the attribute values describing the objects. This system studies how to compute dissimilarities between objects represented by interval scaled variables. This system is intended to implement the dissimilarity matrix for interval-scaled variables using Euclidean, Manhattan, and Minkowski distance methods. This stores a collection of proximities that are available for all pairs of n objects.

Published: December 2020

Pectinases are protease enzymes capable of degrading pectin, which is one of the most important polysaccharide found in nature. Pectinase enzymes find uses in paper-pulp industry, textile industry, food industry and other industries where lignocellulosic material is utilized. Commercially pectinase enzymes are obtained from bacterial and fungal culture grown on decaying fruits and vegetables. In the present study, an attempt was made to isolate pectinase producing bacteria growing in halophilic conditions. Soil (sand) and water samples containing high concentrations of salts from beaches of Taiwan and Karwar, Karnataka were collected and screened for pectinase activity using modified M9 media. Among the obtained 16 bacterial strains, strain 15 showed the highest pectinase activity during screening and was identified to be a Bacillus sp. from morphological features and biochemical tests. This strain was selected and its cultural conditions were standardized for maximum production of pectinase enzyme. Maximum enzyme activity was obtained at pH 11, temperature 40°C, and incubation period of 24 hours. To enhance the productivity modification were tried out in culture media related to nitrogen source and carbon source in which the nitrogen source did not have any significance in activity of enzyme but glucose seemed to be the best carbon source for the growth of bacteria. Further the obtained enzyme was partially purified using the salting out method, dialysis followed by desalting, gel filtration chromatography and ion-exchange chromatography.
Design and Construction of PIC-Based DC Motor Speed Controller for Small Robots
Authors: Win Sanda
Published: December 2020

Because of their good speed control and high torque, DC motors are widely used in many industrial and robotic applications. Robotic application of DC motors often required, in addition to driving loads at constant speed or torque, the ability to vary the speed of the motor. An efficient and economically feasible intelligent DC motor speed controller is designed and constructed based on the rules of closed loop feedback control system. There are two main parts in the hardware development: PIC16F873A microcontroller and its support circuitries and external interface circuitries between motors and microcontrollers. Data processing and control program (firmware program) was run on PIC microcontroller and its on-chip A/D converter, PWM module and external circuitry was used to send and receive the data signal from the motor for control application. The firmware program was written in assembly language and converted to machine language (Hex code) by using Microchip MPASM macro assembler. These machine codes are downloaded into the PIC microcontroller by using EPIC microcontroller programmer. Through prototyping and implementing on a PIC microcontroller, the system was then be tested and used to control the speed of a small DC motor until the required criteria were achieved.

“It was Peugeot that brought us here!”
Authors: Ronsin Juliette
Published: December 2020

The objective of this article is to analyze the consequences of the political, social, and economic ruptures of Yugoslavia and France on the
trajectories of Yugoslavs recruited by the Peugeot company in France after the the 1965 Franco-Yugoslav bilateral agreement on the employment
of temporary labor. Using a monographic approach to the case of the employment area of Sochaux, it is clear that (post-)Yugoslav workers went through periods of upheaval and even disillusionment after their arrival in France. This study mainly deals with a generation of men born
in the 1940s and 1950s and recruited by Peugeot from 1965 onwards, but also includes other members of the family and the plurality of generations. The history of Yugoslav immigration to France has rarely been the subject of research, although studying it makes it possible to analyze relations between a western country and a communist country and the consequences of the breakup of a country for emigrants living abroad. To do so, this article relies on archival sources (files on foreigners kept in the archives of prefectures, archives of associations, and the Peugeot company’s archives) and on interviews with
former workers.
Historical Continuity of Private and Public
Authors: Milinkov Smiljana
Published: December 2020

The paper addresses the patriarchal model of understanding family relationships as an exclusively private sphere with specified and unchanging roles for men and women. In socialist Yugoslavia, despite support for women's emancipation in principle, the model of the patriarchal family and invisible work at home was not called into question and was not a focus of official policy. With the fall of socialism and the growth of nationalist ideology in the 1990s, there was
a re-traditionalization and a return of women to the private sphere, and emphasis was placed on their contribution to the survival of the family during a socio-economic crisis. Based on personal and professional memories of female reporters in Vojvodina of different ages, this paper will examine the relationship between private and public: family roles, maternity, motherhood, and professional careers. The conclusions point to identifying gender identity with traditional roles, which, due to an overlap with a journalist’s obligations, contributes to either suppressing female identity as it relates to professional identity or turning women into superheroines who are equally successful at being mothers, wives, homemakers, and female reporters. These issues could continue to further limit a more effective
merging of gender and professional identity and hamper the development of a gender-sensitive culture in journalism. Thus, it does not contribute to the improvement of women's social positions.

Published: December 2020

Secondo Sebrae, nel 2018, le micro e piccole imprese rappresentavano il 52% delle posizioni lavorative e corrispondono al 99% delle aziende esistenti in Brasile. Tuttavia, anche con questa rappresentatività il 58% di queste aziende riesce a superare i cinque anni di esistenza. Si stima che questa alta percentuale di mortalità delle organizzazioni sia legata alla mancanza di pianificazione e adozione ai principi di base dell’amministrazione. Questo articolo si propone di condurre una riflessione, utilizzando la metodologia della revisione bibliografica, sull’importanza del marketing per queste organizzazioni, nonché sulla necessità per gli imprenditori di adottare una posizione strategica attraverso possibilità di marketing, in particolare in relazione al Digital Marketing, garantendo così la sostenibilità dell’organizzazione.

Published: December 2020

This legal research aims to analyze the various applicable laws and regulations related to the rules on technology transfer in Indonesia. The legal research method used in this legal research uses normative legal research and uses secondary legal material as a reference for collecting data. This legal research would like to convey the need for regulation of Sui Generis technology transfer which has become an interesting old issue and needs to be discussed. That the rules of technology transfer which are spread in various laws and regulations are felt to be unable to provide legal protection for the host country where developed countries invest and establish their companies. Inability to provide protection is basically no strict sanctions if the country or TNC does not make efforts to transfer technology as mandated by the legislation. This because the provisions regarding transfer technology are an agreement and do not have compelling power for developed countries or transnational companies. Therefore, by doing the preparation of technology transfer sui generis as well as special attention from the government about this condition, it will provide benefits and advantages for the host country to manage the transfer of technology that it obtains

Positive law in Indonesia stipulates that business actors are not allowed to produce and trade all products, including baby clothes that do not meet the Indonesian National Standard (SNI). However, in reality, baby clothing business actors still find violations, for example, in the city of Banda Aceh. Departing from these problems, this study aims to explain the role of the government in protecting consumers. These factors cause the sale and purchase of baby clothes that do not have SNI and legal measures that consumers can take as a form of responsibility for sellers of baby clothes who do not have SNI. This research is legal research that is juridical and empirical that seeks newness based on field research concerning legitimate science. Field research was conducted to obtain primary data through interviews and provide questionnaires with respondents and informants. Based on the results of the study, it is known that the role of the government in protecting consumers has carried out supervision, established several regulations and conducted socialization regarding mandatory SNI for baby clothes that are not SNI but not yet fully effective.

Integration of the WFME Standards and AUN-QA Criteria for Student Assessment in Undergraduate Medical Education
Authors: Dharmasaroja Permphan
Published: December 2020

Quality assurance (QA) is a broad-based activity, which encompasses both quality management and quality control, and requires all the policies, standards, systems and processes in place to maintain and improve medical education quality. QA can be managed through an institutional monitoring that should include the evaluation of teaching and learning approaches, and the assessment. Accreditation standards by international agencies such as the World Federation for Medical Education (WFME) are to be followed for an external quality assurance. In addition, the ASEAN University Network-Quality Assurance (AUN-QA) is the assessment criteria for promoting QA in higher educational programs in ASEAN countries. Both WFME and AUN-QA require that teaching and learning approaches and assessment methods be aligned to the program learning outcomes. The purpose of this review is to compare the WFME standards and the AUN-QA criteria on teaching and learning approaches and methods of assessment to encourage the integration of these two QA systems for undergraduate medical education.
SCHOOL AUTONOMY AND SCHOOL LEADERSHIP: CASE STUDY OF SCHOOL OPERATION IN SLOVAKIA
Authors: Hašková Alena , Bitterová Miriam
Published: December 2020

During as near as three decades after the political changes in Slovakia its system of education has undergone many reforms. As an integral part of them have been changes regarding school autonomy as it influences quality of education. To achieve an optimal model of autonomy offered to schools is very difficult, as appropriate level of autonomy is dependent on time and social conditions. To improve democratic participation of primary and secondary school leaders in Slovakia, a research aimed at assessment of the current state of the level of school autonomy was carried out. The research data were obtained from a questionnaire survey, the respondents of which were 93 headmasters and deputy headmasters. These school leaders assessed the power they (the schools) have in five fields, namely in the fields of school activity in the whole, school curricula matters, school financing and budgeting, staff recruitment, selection, employing and sacking, administrative and operational management. The assessment they give once with respect to the level in which to them given autonomy matches the tasks and problems they have to cope with, and the second time with respect to their opinion where the scope of the autonomy should be changed. Although the school leaders assessed the level of the powers they are given in a positive way, as average or broader, they still feel a need to have a broader scope of the powers and responsibilities, mainly in the field of financing and budgeting.

Authors: Yi Pilnam , Shin In-soo
Published: December 2020

External accountability policies have spread fast across various educational systems over the past decades. This research examines the relations of internal and external accountability with students’ math achievement drawing on PISA 2012. With a sample of 44 educational systems, of which external accountability policies were identified, the research conducted three-level hierarchical linear modelling (HLM) analyses. This research found that some internal accountability factors had tighter relations with math achievement, while the relations of external accountability policies with student performance were rather tenuous. However, equity of student math achievement was better ensured under strong accountability systems. The results suggest that policy makers of each country should consider strengths and weaknesses of external accountability in their own educational contexts. Keywords: external accountability, educational equity, internal accountability, math achievement, PISA.
ENVIRONMENTAL PERCEPTION ABOUT MARINE AND COASTAL ECOSYSTEMS: EVALUATION THROUGH A RESEARCH INSTRUMENT BASED ON MODEL OF ECOLOGICAL VALUES
Authors: Ursi Suzana , Towata Naomi
Published: December 2020

The first aim of research is to propose a research instrument based on Wiseman and Bogner’s Model of Ecological Values, the “Coastal Environment Questionnaire” (CEQ), specifically developed to evaluate the Environmental Perception about marine and coastal ecosystems. The second aim is to explore, using CEQ, the position on the categories from Model of Ecological Values of some basic education students and some pre-service biology teachers from cities located near coastal areas from Brazil. CEQ was modified from “The Environment Questionnaire” (TEQ), which consists of a questionnaire composed of 16 items with Likert-type responses. The first process to have elaborated the new instrument changed the general situations described in the items of TEQ (most related with land environments) to situations related to marine and coastal environments. CEQ has been used with: 63 pre-service biology teachers from a non-coastal city; 79 basic education students from a non-coastal city; and 74 basic education students from a coastal city. All pre-service teachers were placed at Preservation+Utilization- category (100%). However, most students were placed at the Preservation+Utilization- category (around 70%), followed by Preservation+Utilization+ (around 25%), regardless their city location. It is expected that CEQ can be useful on research aim to better understand the perception about marine and coastal environments, contributing to development and evaluation of future Environmental Educational program focus on these important ecosystems.

Svm Performance Optimization Using PSO for Breast Cancer Classification
Authors: Habibi Rizki
Published: December 2020

Breast cancer is a very serious disease and requires the sufferer to undergo an intensive examination. This study proposes an optimization method for SVM parameters using the particle swarm optimization algorithm to classify breast cancer. The test results show that the classification using SVM with optimization using PSO is able to improve accuracy better than the classification using SVM without optimization, namely the determination of the parameters randomly. Breast cancer data classification accuracy increased to 78.91%. The best parameter values for c, γ, r, and d are 0.252101, 0.053248, 1 and 5, respectively. In this study, the polynomial and RBF kernels in general were able to produce higher accuracy than linear and sigmoid kernels.

Published: December 2020

Objective: To describe hospitalisation rates following COVID-19 infection in NSW.
Design, setting and participants: Analysis of all confirmed COVID-19 cases diagnosed in NSW from 1 January to 31 May 2020 extracted from the NSW Notifiable Conditions Information Management System and linked to routinely collected hospitalisation data.
Outcome measures: In-patient hospitalisations and hospital service utilisation details.
Results: There were 3,101 COVID-19 cases diagnosed between 1 January and 31 May 2020 in NSW: mean age 46.7 years, 50.5% were females. Overall, 12.5% (n = 389) had a record of inpatient hospitalisation, 4.2% (n = 130) were admitted to ICU and 1.9% (n = 58) received ventilation. Among adult cases, hospital and ICU admission rates increased with increasing age: 2.9% of those aged 20–29 years were hospitalised, increasing to 46.6% of those aged 80–89 years; 0.6% of those aged 20–29 years were admitted to ICU, increasing to 11.2% of those aged 70–79 years. The median time from symptoms to hospitalisation was seven days (IQR 4–11). The median time in hospital was nine days (IQR 4–20), and in ICU six days (IQR 2–15); the median time in hospital increased with older age. Almost half (49.4%) of those hospitalised with a diagnostic code had pneumonia/lower respiratory tract infection and another 36.6% had an upper respiratory tract infection or other known COVID-19 symptoms.
Conclusion: COVID-19 is a serious infection particularly in older adults. During January to May of 2020, 1 in 8 of those diagnosed in NSW were hospitalised. While this partly reflects the cautious approach to case management in the initial phase of the pandemic, it also demonstrates the large potential impact of COVID-19 on Australian health services and need for continuing mitigation strategies.
Intra-European Mobility of Skilled Expatriates and Place-Identity: Interwoven Social Representations of Rome and Warsaw
Authors: Silvada de Rosa Annamaria , Dryjanska Laura
Published: December 2020

This paper discusses the influence of social representations of a destination city on the motivation and development of individual mobility patterns, using questionnaires with a projective technique and guided interviews. The participants were 60 skilled expatriates in two different European capital cities: Italians residing in Warsaw and Poles residing in Rome. The study demonstrates the relevance of place-identity for the meaning of place within urban culture, in the context where global and local issues are interwoven. It also features the transformation of social representations of the two cities.
Lethal Violence and Migration in Mexico: An Analysis of Internal and International Moves
Authors: Steven Massey Douglas , Durand Jorge , Pren Karen A
Published: December 2020

Linking municipal-level homicide rates from 1990 through 2018 with data from the Mexican Migration Project, we estimate a series of multinomial discrete-time event history models to assess the effect that exposure to lethal violence has on the likelihood of migration within Mexico and to the U.S. without documents. Statistical estimates indicate that the homicide rate negatively predicts the probability of taking a first undocumented trip to the U.S. but positively predicts the likelihood of taking a first trip within Mexico. Among those undocumented migrants, who have already taken a first U.S. trip, lethal violence also negatively predicts the likelihood of taking a second undocumented trip. Among returned internal migrants whose first trip was to a Mexican destination, the odds of taking a first undocumented trip were also negatively predicted by the municipal homicide rate. Violence in Mexico is not a driver of undocumented migration to the U.S.
Aşırı Ebeveynlik, Ençoklamacı Karar Verme Eğilimleri ve Kariyer Karasızlığı İlişkisi: Sinop Örneği
Authors: DEMİR Ayşegül
Published: December 2020

Aşırı ebeveynlik, anne ve/veya babanın çocuklarının üzerinde kurdukları bir tahakküm biçimi olarak ifade edilebilir. Ebeveynlik biçimindeki bu tarz, çocukların ençoklamacı karar verme eğilimleri göstermelerinin nedeni olarak sayılabilir. Ayrıca, çocukların içinde yaşadıkları toplumda sosyalleşme biçimleri de bu ebeveyn tarzı ile doğrudan ilişkilidir. Bu nedenle, ençoklamacı karar verme eğilimleri gösteren kişilerin, aşırı ebeveynlik gösteren ailelerin çocuklarının, demokratik ve izin verici ailelerin çocuklarına nazaran, ilerdeki yaşamlarının büyük bir kısmını kapsayacak olan mesleki hayatlarını belirleme konusu önemli olmaktadır. Çünkü, ençoklamacı karar verme eğilimleri sebebiyle kariyer kararsızlığını daha fazla yaşayacaklarını söylemek mümkün görünmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Sinop ili örneği temel alınarak aşırı ebeveynlik, ençoklamacı karar verme eğilimleri ve kariyer kararsızlığı arasındaki ilişki sosyolojik eksende incelenmektedir. Örneklemi, toplamda 300 katılımcıdan oluşan üniversite hazırlık grubu lise mezunu kadın öğrenciler temsil etmektedir. Katılımcılara uygulanan anketlerden toplanan verilerin analizinde, SPSS 21 programı kullanılmıştır. Varimax eksen döndürme tekniği uygulandıktan sonra, IBM SPSS ve AMOS-YEM istatistik programına entegre edilen ve düzenleyici aracılık modelleri analizleri için geliştirilmiş olan PROCESS 2.16 adında makro kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, verilerden elde edilen analiz sonucuna göre aşırı ebeveynlik, ençoklamacı karar verme eğilimleri ve kariyer kararsızlığı arasında ilişkinin sosyolojik olarak anlamlı olduğunu göstermiştir.
THE TRANSFORMATION OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACES ALONG ISMET INONU-2 BOULEVARD

Published: December 2020

The aim of this study is to examine the changes in the identity of the Ismet Inönü-2 Boulevard in the Eskişehir Old Factory Area through the transformation of public and private spaces in historical context. In the study, first, the three eras that are; the development of the Boulevard due to the industrialization of the Early Republican period, the situation up to the year 2000 and the rapid transformation process witnessed after 2000 will be given chronologically. Then, spatial transformations on the Boulevard, which are the indicatives of the socio-economic changes, will be discussed through concepts derived from the literature survey. These concepts will also be exemplified and concretized through the field work conducted in the Boulevard. It is inferred from the investigation that the identity of the Boulevard related to industrialization and production disappeared and a new identity has arisen due the consumption spaces such as Cafés, Restaurants, Hotels, Office Blocks and Shopping Centers surrounding the Boulevard through the revisions of the development plans. According to the findings obtained during the study, İsmet İnönü-2 Boulevard reflects socio-economic transformations with the qualities and the transformations of the private and public spaces it hosts. The street, which is re-structured evolving from the production society to the consumer society, is an “invented street” and the interface built on the street produces private publicities and excludes the public.
