Analyzing the impact of the key rate on the Russian economy
Authors: SMIRNOV Valerii V.
Published: December 2024

Subject. The article is devoted to the key rate in the Russian economy.
Objectives. The purpose is to determine the impact of the key rate of the Bank of Russia on the economy.
Methods. The study employs general scientific methods, primarily data analysis and synthesis, and special economic and mathematical methods, like correlation and regression analysis.
Results. The study revealed the key rate volatility and a two-fold excess of the key rate over inflation during the period of increasing risks in the economy at the necessary parity for inflation targeting. The paper shows the target growth of the maximum interest rate (on ruble-denominated deposits) in ten credit institutions attracting the largest volume of deposits from individuals. At the same time, the weighted average interest rates on loans provided by credit institutions to individuals in rubles, in some cases, are twice the key rate. The paper also shows a transition to a higher level of funds of credit institutions in deposit accounts with the Bank of Russia, and a growth in the ratio of debt securities to quoted shares of Russian issuers against the background of acceleration of the first and slowdown of the second, as well as a weak growth of the Federal bond market.
Conclusions. The revealed impact of the Bank of Russia's key rate on the economy enables the expert community to correctly determine the critical balance between debt securities and quoted shares of Russian issuers.
Approaches to reducing social inequality in Russia through the Personal Income Tax reform
Authors: FEDOTOV Dmitrii Yu.
Published: December 2024

Subject. The article investigates approaches to reducing social inequality in Russia through personal income tax reform.
Objectives. The purpose is to develop a progressive model of individual income taxation in Russia, enabling to redistribute the tax burden from the low-income to high-income population, to assess possible consequences of introducing a progressive personal income tax rate scale proposed by the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation.
Methods. The study rests on methods of statistical dynamic analysis, induction, deduction, scientific generalization, analogy, classification. The data source was statistical information provided on official websites of the Federal State Statistics Service and Federal Tax Service of Russia.
Results. The study revealed significant stratification of the population by income level. Russia has a very weak personal income tax progression. The additional tax rate, which is 2 percentage points higher than the generally established one for incomes exceeding 5 million rubles per year, does not allow the tax burden to be spread out between low-income and high-income categories of the population with the greatest fairness. I developed a version of changes in the size of personal income tax rates, providing for 1 percent point reduction in the tax rate for low- and middle-income individuals, while increasing it to 35% for high-income groups of taxpayers.
Conclusions. The offered model of progressive taxation is capable, unlike the variant of the Ministry of Finance of Russia, to reduce social inequality in the country, and prevent an increase in the total tax burden on the population.

Authors: Suhadi Suhadi , Putri Jamiatul Khairunnisa , Iskandar Iskhaq , Supri Supri
Published: December 2024

The limitations of good rainfall data due to constraints on direct measurements can be overcome by using satellite data or reanalysis data. The use of this data must, of course, go through a validation process first. This research aims to evaluate daily data from the Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) version 3B42RT (TRMM_3B42RT) and European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Reanalysis 5 (ERA5) data against data collected from 17 rain gauges in the Sumatra region South. Evaluation is carried out based on the Correlation Coefficient (CC), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and Mean Bias Error (MBE) values between the data. In addition, the estimation capabilities of TRMM_3B42RT and ERA5 were evaluated based on the Probability of Detection (POD), False Alarm Ratio (FAR), and Critical Success Index (CSI) values. The results show a very high correlation between TRMM_3B42RT and ERA5 with rain gauge data, especially in terms of monthly data. These values (monthly data) for TRMM_3B42RT and ERA5 data are 0.3-0.9 and 0.2-0.9, respectively. The RMSE values of TRMM_3B42RT and ERA5 data in monthly analysis are 75-250mm/month and 100-180mm/month, respectively. The forecasting performance of TRMM_3B42RT and ERA5 shows good results, especially for moderate rainfall in daily data and heavy rainfall in monthly data. The results of this analysis show tha the monthly data TRMM_3B42RT is more in line with the station data and can be used in further research.

Published: December 2024

Ikan tuna mata besar merupakan salah satu komoditas yang memiliki nilai tinggi di pasaran. Ikan tuna mata besar (Thunnus obesius) dapat ditemukan di perairan Indonesia, salah satunya di wilayah WPPNRI 715 yang berada pada laut Sulawesi. Namun dari tahun 2019 hingga 2021, penangkapan ikan tuna mengalami penurunan pada provinsi Sulawesi Tengah. Penelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk mengetahui potensi lebih lanjut ikan tuna di Perairan Banggai Kepulauan. Penggabungan data Soumi National Polar-orbiting Patnership (SNPP) dengan sensor Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS), Hidroakustik dan Conductivity, Temperature, and Depth (CTD), dapat digunakan untuk mendapatkan parameter oseanografi yang berupa klorofil-a, suhu permukaan laut, kedalaman, dan target strength. Parameter tersebut dapat digunakan untuk analisis Pelagic Habitat Indeks (PHI) yang digunakan untuk mengetahui potensi ikan tuna mata besar. Hasil penggabungan data SNPP, Hidroakustik dan CTD menunjukkan nilai parameter oseanografi yang baik, dengan nilai Root Means Square Error yang kecil, dengan begitu dapat dilakukan analisis PHI untuk menunjukkan habitat yang ideal dan potensi ikan tuna mata besar. Berdasarkan analisis PHI, bahwa habitat ikan tuna mata besar yang baik berada pada nilai klorofil-a 0,37 mg/m3 hingga 0,52 mg/m3, suhu permukaan laut 27,75 ºC hingga 28,01 ºC dan kedalaman -190m hingga -250m. Terdapat 20 lokasi yang berpotensi untuk penangkapan ikan tuna mata besar di Perairan Banggai Kepulauan. Namun hanya 5 lokasi yang berpotensi sangat tinggi untuk penangkapan ikan tuna mata besar, dan 5 lokasi tersebut tersebar dekat dengan daratan.

Authors: Susetyo Budi , Waluyo Waluyo , Hermawan Erwin
Published: December 2024

Minister of Environment and Forestry Regulation No. P.14/MENLHK/SETJEN/KUM.1/2/2017 establishes protocols for assessing and defining the function of peat ecosystems, involving 13 criteria. Among these, survey points must align with map coordinates, with a displacement limit of 200 meters. The research aims to meticulously control the characteristics of peatlands in the Peat Hydrological Unit (PHU) of Gongan River-Nilo River, Riau Province, following the work plan to ensure that observations align with actual conditions. The Haversine method gauges the distance between planned and actual observation points, revealing an average shift of 19.9 meters, ranging from 3.38 to 198.9 meters, indicating surveyor accountability. Field data shows 68% of the area with groundwater levels below 30 cm, and 32% between 30 and 60 cm. Channel water heights are predominantly between 50 and 100 cm (68%), with 22% lower and 10% higher. Soil pH consistently measures below 4 (100%), similar to channel water (73%), and substratum (81%) with most below 4. Only 3.1% of groundwater exceeds 300 μS/cm in electrical conductivity, while 96% are below 300 μS/cm, including low substratum conductivity. Total dissolved solids are mostly below 75 ppm (97%), with 3% between 75 and 150 ppm. The average peat thickness is 367.9 cm, primarily clay/river sediment at the hemic level.  It can be concluded that all field survey results in the PHU Gongan-Nilo River can be accepted as valid data that can be used as a basis for development planning/regional determination in this area.

EVALUATION OF INTERPOLATION METHODS FOR GNSS VELOCITIES IN CRUSTAL DEFORMATION: A CASE STUDY ON STRAIN RATE CALCULATION IN THE SOUTHERN SUMATRA
Authors: Alif Satrio Muhammad
Published: December 2024

This study evaluates three interpolation methods—Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW), Kriging, and Sandwell—for analyzing crustal deformation in southern Sumatra, focusing on the on-site velocity consistency test. This test is crucial for assessing interpolation accuracy by comparing interpolated velocities to actual GNSS velocities at specific sites. Given the region's sparse GNSS network, accurate interpolation is vital for reliable deformation analysis. GNSS data from continuous and campaign sites, collected between 2017 and 2022 with a 30-second sampling interval, were processed to generate velocity. The Sandwell method, particularly with a Poisson’s ratio of 0, demonstrated superior performance, achieving the lowest mean residuals in the on-site velocity consistency test. This method consistently provided accurate interpolated velocities that closely matched original site data. IDW and Kriging methods also showed effectiveness but had different convergence behaviors: IDW required higher interpolation degrees for accuracy, while Kriging excelled in the east-west residuals. The Sandwell method’s velocities were used to calculate strain rates, revealing significant spatial variability. The findings underscore the importance of detailed on-site velocity consistency testing and highlight the need for expanding GNSS networks to improve accuracy and better assess seismic hazards in southern Sumatra.
PEMANFAATAN CITRA SAR SENTINEL-1 MULTI-TEMPORAL UNTUK IDENTIFIKASI FASILITAS PUBLIK TERDAMPAK BANJIR PERKOTAAN Studi Kasus di Kota Bandung
Authors: Ruuhulhaq Muhammad Saiful
Published: December 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memetakan dampak genangan banjir terhadap fasilitas publik di Kota Bandung karena tingginya angka kejadian banjir di Indonesia pada tahun 2023 yang mencapai 1.255 kejadian atau sekitar 23,2% dari total bencana. Jawa Barat, termasuk Kota Bandung, merupakan salah satu wilayah yang paling sering dilanda banjir selama musim hujan akibat hujan deras yang menyebabkan banjir di berbagai titik. Dalam penelitian ini, digunakan citra satelit Sentinel-1 dengan sensor radar Interferometric Wide (IW) yang dilengkapi polarisasi VV dan VH untuk mendeteksi dan memetakan area genangan banjir. Data yang digunakan adalah produk Level-1 IW Ground Range Detected (GRD) dan sebaran fasilitas publik di Kota Bandung yang diperoleh melalui teknik geotagging. Hasil pemetaan menunjukkan bahwa total area yang tergenang di Kota Bandung mencapai 1.247,23 hektare. Fasilitas pendidikan mengalami dampak paling signifikan dengan jumlah terbanyak yang tergenang banjir, yaitu 465 fasilitas. Analis pengolahan citra menunjukkan adanya perbedaan dalam kemampuan polarisasi VV dan VH dalam mendeteksi genangan air, yang mengindikasikan bahwa karakteristik permukaan air yang berbeda mungkin lebih baik terdeteksi dengan polarisasi tertentu. Citra radar Sentinel-1 memiliki keunggulan dalam pemetaan banjir secara lebih akurat, khususnya dalam kondisi cuaca yang tidak mendukung. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat menjadi referensi bagi penelitian selanjutnya untuk menganalisis perbedaan polarisasi VV dan VH dalam meningkatkan akurasi pemetaan banjir dan menambahkan parameter kerawanan banjir di kawasan perkotaan seperti Kota Bandung.

Authors: Al-Timimi Noor Mohammed Naji , Baraaj Abed Hassan
Published: December 2024

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) represents the most prevalent kind of thyroid gland cancer, making up around 80% of all occurrences of thyroid cancer. Evidence shows that Syndecan-1 (SDC-1) expression is lost in a number of benign and malignant epithelial neoplasms, although its expression profile in thyroid gland neoplasms is yet unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess SDC-1 expression in papillary thyroid carcinoma patients, as well as the relationship between age and gender and SDC-1 expression. To undertake a detailed investigation of SDC-1 in normal and malignant tissues, tissue sections were used to examine SDC-1 expression in 70 tissue samples, 50 distinct PTC (6 males and 44 females) and 20 normal tissue types (10 from each gender) as control. Ages in each group ranged from 20 to 60 years. The results showed a statistically different level of SDC-1 expression in patients and control. There was no significant relationship between SDC-1 expression and gender or age,  in accordance with recent research findings which suggest that SDC- 1 might be exploited as a prognostic indicator or a target in cancer treatment in the future.

Authors: Rahim Bestun Ibrahim Hama , Ali Seenaa Muhammed
Published: December 2024

A cohort study was conducted among 210 health staff members in Sulaimani city to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. They were divided into two groups: vaccinated and unvaccinated. The vaccinated group received two doses of the Pfizer vaccine, while the unvaccinated group did not receive any vaccines during this study. Vaccine reactogenicity was assessed using a self-report form. Whereas vaccine immunogenicity was assessed by testing the anti-receptor binding domain IgG (anti-RBD IgG) antibody. Several adverse effects were observed with each dose. The most frequent adverse effects were pain at the inoculation site, tiredness, myalgia and fever. The average adverse effects per person in the first and second doses were 5.3 (SD 3.3) and 6.3 (SD 3.5) respectively (p = 0.005). The immunized group's anti-RBD IgG antibody levels were greatly improved after taking the first and second doses (32.50 and 44.92 binding antibody units (BAU)/mL respectively). After eight months of taking the two doses, the antibody level dropped to 17.00 BAU/mL. This study indicates that the vaccine can be safe and effective for enhancing antibody production.

Published: December 2024

The current study aimed to reveal the biosynthesis technique of Fe2O3 nanoparticles by using prodigiosin pigment production from Serratia marcescens. One hundred and twenty samples were obtained from burn and wound infections to isolate Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In addition, the optimum conditions for Fe2O3 nanoparticles biosynthesis were characterized via different methods, including ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), atomic force microscope (AFM), fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). In particular, spherical shape particles were observed utilizing FE-SEM technique. In addition, the analysis of AFM revealed Fe2O3 NPs with an average diameter size of 50.73 nm.  The influences of varied concentrations of iron nanoparticles (6.25, 12.5, 25 , 50, 100and 200 mg/ml) on a bacterial isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were examined. The maximum inhibition zone of P. aeruginosa was 24 mm at a concentration of 200 mg/ml of Fe2O3 NPs, whereas the minimum inhibition zone were 10 mm located at 25 mg/ml Fe2O3 NPs concentrations.

Authors: Khudhur Muhanad H. , Al-Jiboori Monim H. , Abood Kamal M.
Published: December 2024

In this work, the effect of the ionospheric variables on the astronomical radio signal was studied. Florida station, for the year 2014, was selected and the actual observation data of the Jupiter signal from the Radio JOVE Data Archive was used. The Radio Jove Pro software was used to determine the number of radio emissions from Jupiter that were supposed to occur. The data of the electron density and temperatures of the ionosphere for altitudes 200-500 kilometers were taken from the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) site, where 116 supposed events were obtained, and after applying determinants for the angle of elevation of Jupiter and the elevation of the sun, this number was reduced to 45. This work aims to focus on the role of the ionosphere in blocking the radio signal coming from Jupiter. It was found that 28 events were actually observed, while 17 events were not observed. The possibility of observing is better after sunset and depends on Jupiter's height above the horizon relative to the observer. The value of F2 peak density during the night time and along the year was about 1011 to 1012 m-3 and at a height of about 270-360 km. Approximately 82% of the observations occurred when the F2 peak density was less than 6×1011 m-3 and the height was greater than 300 km, and approximately 82% of the cases of non-observation occurred when the F2 peak density was greater than 6×1011 m-3 and the height was less than 300 km. The probability of observation is greatly affected by the relationship between the value of the electron density and its height.

A luxação congênita de joelhos (LCJ), ou genu recurvatum, é um distúrbio que ocorre em aproximadamente 1 a cada 100.000 nascidos vivos, com distribuição praticamente igual entre os sexos, sendo definido pela hiperextensão dos joelhos presente ao nascimento. O acometimento pode ser unilateral, mais frequente, ou bilateral, que é raro e representa cerca de um terço dos casos. A etiologia da LCJ ainda é incerta, mas acredita-se que exista uma associação entre fatores como apresentação fetal pélvica, oligodrâmnia e desequilíbrios neuromusculares, além de malformações genéticas. O tratamento da LCJ inclui manejo conservador, fisioterapia e abordagem cirúrgica, dependendo do grau de classificação da luxação. Este relato apresenta uma criança recém-nascida, com luxação de joelhos bilateral, de etiologia posicional, com diagnóstico em sala de parto, confirmado posteriormente com radiografia, não tendo sido encontrada nenhuma outra anormalidade musculoesquelética ou genética associada. A paciente recebeu tratamento conservador, obtendo resolução espontânea e completa do quadro.

O Brasil enfrenta uma grave crise ambiental devido às queimadas, cujas CONSEQUÊNCIAS afetam profundamente o meio ambiente e a saúde da população. Em 2024, incêndios atingiram proporções alarmantes, resultando na pior qualidade do ar já registrada na cidade de São Paulo. A poluição gerada agrava riscos à saúde, especialmente em crianças menores de cinco anos, que são mais vulneráveis. Entre os poluentes produzidos pelas queimadas, destaca-se o material particulado inalável fino que penetra profundamente nos pulmões, causando inflamação e aumentando a incidência de doenças respiratórias, como exacerbações da asma, bronquite e de outras doenças respiratórias crônicas, maior probabilidade de pneumonia, resfriados, rinossinusites, traqueítes, adenoamigdalites, conjuntivite, irritabilidade, tosse noturna, anorexia, sensação de cansaço e alterações de sono. Além de comprometer a saúde física, a poluição decorrente das queimadas impacta a saúde mental e cardiovascular, elevando a demanda por serviços de saúde. Também contribui para alterações epigenéticas que podem afetar a saúde ao longo da vida. A crise atual reforça a necessidade urgente de políticas públicas que reduzam as queimadas e protejam os grupos mais vulneráveis, especialmente as crianças. O pediatra tem papel crucial ao monitorar os efeitos da poluição, diagnosticar doenças respiratórias e orientar as famílias sobre medidas preventivas durante picos de contaminação. Além disso, pode ser um defensor de políticas públicas que promovam ambientes mais saudáveis e sustentáveis, garantindo o cuidado adequado às crianças diante desses riscos. Medidas eficazes são essenciais para não caminharmos rumo a um país inabitável.

Published: December 2024

La producción de cultivos de brasicáceas en México es afectada por el ataque de la palomilla dorso de diamante Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae). Una aplicación inadecuada de insecticidas afecta indirectamente al principal parasitoide de esta plaga, la avispa Diadegma insulare (Cresson) (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae). El objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar, bajo condiciones de laboratorio, tres insecticidas orgánicos, cinco insecticidas sintéticos y un testigo, para determinar su efectividad para controlar P. xylostella y su efecto en la mortalidad del parasitoide D. insulare. Fueron evaluados ocho tratamientos de insecticidas y un testigo mediante un diseño completamente al azar con cuatro repeticiones. Se utilizó el método de inmersión de hoja de brócoli en solución con los insecticidas. Piridalil fue el que ocasionó la mayor mortalidad (100 %) en estadio de tercer instar larval de P. xylostella a las 48 h de la aplicación y un daño de leve a moderado (categorías 1 y 2 del IOBC) en D. insulare a las 72 h; Naled obtuvo 100 % de mortalidad en larva y adulto de P. xylostella, pero también provocó el 100 % de mortalidad en el parasitoide a las 24 h después del tratamiento. Entre los insecticidas orgánicos, Piretrina produjo la mayor mortalidad en larvas de P. xylostella (60 %) a las 72 h en las dos dosis utilizadas y provocó una mortalidad del 10 % en D. insulare. Los insecticidas Piridalil y Benzoato de Emamectina mostraron alta efectividad para el control del insecto-plaga y tuvieron bajo impacto en el parasitoide.
Voz masculina y voz femenina: su influencia en las evaluciones lingüísticas
Authors: Svetozarovová Radka , Manjón-Cabeza Cruz Antonio José
Published: December 2024

The aim of this paper is to study how Granadian speakers (men and women) evaluate the female and male voices of the eight major varieties of Spanish suggested by Moreno Fernández (2009). Matched-guise technique-based PRECAVES XXI survey (Cestero Mancera and Paredes García, 2015, 2018) was completed by 54 men and 54 women from the province of Granada. Each respondent listened to 16 voice stimuli belonging to the eight geographic varieties previously mentioned. Half of the respondents listened to the female voice and the other half to the male voice. 
Analysis shows that in the data obtained from speakers of a stigmatised Granadian variety, a pattern can be observed that points to a higher evaluation of the female voice in those varieties that could be considered innovative, while the opposite is true in conservative varieties of Spanish, where the male voice is more highly valued. Surprisingly, this tendency is almost identical for informants of both sexes. We can conclude that in our study only the voice heard has a significant influence and that the linguistic prestige of the different modalities of Spanish is indeed related to the voice of the speaker, male or female, in accordance with Trudgill’s findings (1972, 1983).

Published: December 2024

This study explores the role of the internet and cyberspace, particularly through the use of emails, as a tool for feminist empowerment within Saudi Arabian society, as depicted in Rajaa Alsanea's novel Girls of Riyadh. The research aims to examine how female characters use virtual spaces to challenge and undermine patriarchal norms and expectations. By utilizing the internet's anonymity and connectivity, these women carve out a platform for self-expression, solidarity, and resistance against the oppressive structures of their society. The study finds that cyberfeminism offers a powerful means for women in conservative environments to voice their thoughts and advocate for change. Furthermore, the internet serves as a catalyst for new forms of feminist discourse and activism. The study concludes that cyberspace not only facilitates the creation of a collective feminist identity but also empowers women to redefine their roles and resist traditional societal constraints.
Once again about the use of physical force and special technical means by police officers
Authors: Kurakin Aleksei Valentinovich
Published: December 2024

The article examines the problems and grounds for the use of physical force, draws attention to the fact that physical force use by a police officer is a kind of administrative coercion from legal point of view. The use of physical force is an objective necessity, despite this the law establishes the limits of its use. The author formulates proposals on the limits of the use of physical force, analyzes such a category as "special technical means", draws attention to the role played by special technical means in police work, presents and doctrinally justifies the classification of technical means. The article draws attention to the problems of the use of special means in the conditions of digital reality, emphasizes that it is necessary to determine the mechanism and regime of legal responsibility for the use of special means in the conditions of digital reality. The methodological basis of the article is formed by a set of generally accepted methods of cognition, namely: general scientific methods, in particular, methods of analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, comparison, system-structural method; special formal legal method. In particular, through the use of methods of analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, comparison, the concept of "the use of physical force"; "the use of special means" was formulated. The author concluded that when using physical force, it is not allowed to cause serious harm to the health of the person against whom this coercion was carried out. The principle of adequacy of physical impact should permeate the entire process of using physical force, a police officer should clearly understand that if it is enough to inflict one relaxing blow, then it is not necessary to inflict a second blow. It is also necessary to understand the anatomical features of a person, this will make it possible to prevent serious injuries to the person concerned. A police officer should also be aware that the physical and property damage caused as a result of the use of physical force can be appealed by the relevant person. The article concludes that the use of special means increases the physical impact on a person, while there are quite a lot of reasons for the use of these means, these are the grounds established both for the actual use of appropriate means and those grounds that are defined for the use of firearms.
The Enlightenment Committee of Hamburg-Bremen and the Nazi Seizure of Power: the Case of "Self-Coordination"?
Authors: Nurislamov Ruslan Rifovich
Published: December 2024

The subject of the study is the "coordination" of the Enlightenment Committee Hamburg-Bremen after the Nazis came to power. The purpose of the study is to characterize the process of including this organization in the system of the state apparatus of Nazi Germany. The article analyzes documents from the collections of Russian, German and British archives. The study revealed that the attitude of the Enlightenment Committee Hamburg-Bremen to the Nazi regime was due to a number of reasons: the negative impact of the world economic crisis of 1929-1933 and, against this background, increased interaction with the state even before the Nazis came to power; the rapprochement of some Hamburg and Bremen entrepreneurs with the Nazi Party at the decline of the Weimar Republic due to the success of the party in local and national elections; the rapid process of "coordination" of Hamburg and Bremen and their chambers of commerce after the Nazis came to power; dissatisfaction with the existing system of foreign propaganda, hopes for its strengthening in new conditions. The article shows that the management of the Enlightenment Committee Hamburg-Bremen itself sought to make the organization under the control of the Hitler regime, therefore, even before officially joining the structure of the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, it carried out personnel "coordination" and began to produce materials in a pro-Nazi manner. In Nazi Germany, the Hamburg-based organization came under state control and was provided with stable funding and other support. The previous areas of activity have been preserved and strengthened. The result of the study is the conclusion that in relation to the Enlightenment Committee Hamburg-Bremen, we should not talk about forced "coordination", but rather about "self-coordination".

On the social base of Sextus Pompey's Sicilian state: The origins of Cilician piracy and its first encounters with Rome
Authors: Lenchuk Vladislav YUr'evich
Published: December 2024

This article focuses on the social foundation of Sextus Pompey's Sicilian state and the role of Cilician piracy in Rome's history. Particular attention is given to the origins of Cilician piracy in the 3rd–2nd centuries BC and its initial encounters with the Roman Republic. Piracy in the Mediterranean significantly influenced the political processes during Rome's civil wars. The research is based on a systematic analysis of ancient literary sources, including Appian, Plutarch, Polybius, and Strabo, alongside archaeological data and epigraphic studies. These sources provide a comprehensive understanding of piracy and its significance in Eastern Mediterranean politics. Critical analysis of historical texts is employed to reconstruct military-political events involving Cilician pirates. The article demonstrates that Cilician pirates were not merely bandits but key participants in regional politics. It examines the campaign of Marcus Antonius Orator in 102–101 BC, the first major Roman effort to suppress Cilician piracy. Piracy weakened Seleucid power and contributed to the creation of the Roman province of Asia. The interactions of pirates with eastern monarchs, such as Antiochus III and Mithridates VI, who actively utilized their services in military campaigns, are also explored. Rome's attitude towards pirates shifted from utilizing their services to open confrontation. Despite Marcus Antonius' campaign, piracy persisted until Gnaeus Pompeius finally eradicated it in 67 BC. The struggle against Cilician piracy was a significant milestone in Roman imperial policy, consolidating control over the eastern provinces and playing a vital role in establishing Roman dominance in the Mediterranean.
