Human Rights Violation in Africa: A Critical Assessment of Rule of Law in Nigeria
Authors: NWOSU Ikechukwu Jude Donald
Published: February 2025

The discourse about human rights violations has been a recurrence among scholars in Africa. This is because the lives of the African citizens particularly the Nigerians are been decimated and harassed on daily basis through nefarious acts. A bid to find out the magnitude of violation of human rights in Nigeria necessitated this study. Its central focus is to critically assess how rule of law in Nigeria has addressed human rights violations among the citizens. The study further ascertained the nature and level of violation of human rights amongst the citizens of Nigeria. The paper was anchored on both historical and analytical, as facts and figures were gathered from secondary sources using the content analysis method. Judging from the theoretical underpinning of this study, the Social Contract Theory of State stipulates that the rule of law is very important to human existence as it helps to regulate citizens’ actions and make them live harmoniously with each other as without the presence of law, it will be impossible if not difficult for the citizens to get access to basic amenities of life. It was observed that the failure to strictly adhere to the principles of rule of law has resulted in human rights violations which are evident in violation of the right to life, freedom of expression among others. It was therefore concluded that the principle of rule of law if imbibed and practised irrespective of social status, religion or ethnic grouping will engender a peaceful and harmonious nation.

Authors: ODION William E. , CHUKE Patrick I. , UHUNMWANGHO Patrick N.
Published: February 2025

Nigeria is a country blessed with natural potentials that can be harnessed for development. Ironically, she is currently confronted by myriads of security challenges that have impeded the march to development. With the challenges overwhelming the state's capacity to provide adequate security for lives, properties and threats to the statehood at large, partnering in the process has, therefore, become a ready alternative. Unfortunately, even with the plethora of legal security agencies, the security challenges have assumed a demographic dimension in the country with peculiarity found in the various regions. In the attempt to discuss succinctly the Local Non-State Actors (LNSAs) as partners in the security management of the country, this paper identified the forms of LNSAs, the propelling reasons that necessitated LNSAs in the Nigerian context, their operational challenges, the emerging security challenges and demographic spread. It concluded that security challenge is widespread in the country with recorded deaths and loss of properties. Therefore, the idea behind LNSAs is a welcome development that deserved encouragement, particularly now that the federal government has risen to the challenge of recognizing community policing in the country. But, more importantly, they should be closely monitored to avoid misuse and abuse.

Authors: Hu Mingxi , Luo Liyan
Published: February 2025

Against the backdrop of the current rise of feminism around the world, films directed by women are increasingly attracting attention. However, discussions on gender imbalance and social scrutiny in gender relations are still insufficient. This study focuses on Anatomy of a Fall and uses Post-colonialism and "Gaze" theory to explore how ethnicity, gender, and identity in the film affect the expression of gender relations. Through socio-cultural perspective and literature analysis, the phenomenon of gaze and anti-gaze in films is interpreted, revealing the complexity of gender gaze and its special significance in post-colonialism. The study found that Anatomy of a Fall not only presents the diversity of gender gaze but also shows its intersection with ethnicity, gender, and identity in the context of post-colonialism. The director challenges the traditional gender gaze model through film language, which has a profound impact on gender relations. This study reveals the complexity of gender gaze in the context of post-colonialism, provides new ideas for the harmonious development of gender, and emphasizes the importance of Bourdieu's field theory in understanding the confrontation of gendered space, revealing the dynamic changes in the position, role and social structure of gender individuals in the marriage field. In addition, this study fills the gap in the research on this film in the Chinese academic community, opens up a new perspective for the study of the gender dimension of gender relations in films directed by women, and has important academic and practical significance.

A Study on the Impact of Perceived Corporate Social Responsibility on Korean Consumers’ Purchase Intentions toward Luxury Brands
Authors: Shuai Kang , Zhu Yiyu , Sun Wen
Published: February 2025

In the context of global economic integration and accelerating consumer upgrading, the luxury goods industry is witnessing intensified competition. Concurrently, the modern consumer exhibits a rising concern for social and environmental issues, compelling luxury brands to integrate corporate social responsibility (CSR) as a strategic component of their brand identity. Korea, a nation that merges traditional Confucian values with contemporary consumerism, provides a distinct market environment in which consumer purchase behavior is simultaneously influenced by “symbolic consumption” and ethical considerations. This study examines the impact of perceived corporate social responsibility on Korean consumers’ purchase intentions toward luxury brands. We develop and test a conceptual model that positions CSR perception as an antecedent variable influencing purchase intention, mediated by brand trust, brand attitude, and self-congruity. Furthermore, we explore how cultural orientation (e.g., collectivist values) and social values (e.g., fairness, environmental concern) moderate the effects of CSR perception on buying decisions. Drawing on an empirical survey of 600 valid responses collected from various Korean cities, the findings confirm that (1) perceived CSR has a significant positive impact on the intention to purchase luxury products; (2) brand trust, brand attitude, and self-congruity mediate the relationship between CSR perception and purchase intention; and (3) cultural orientation and social values significantly moderate these relationships, such that collectivist-leaning or socially conscious consumers respond more strongly to CSR-driven brand appeals. From a theoretical perspective, this study enriches the emerging body of literature connecting CSR to consumer behavior in luxury contexts, shedding light on the complex psychological pathways whereby CSR influences consumers’ final decisions. Practically, the results highlight the importance of crafting CSR initiatives that resonate with local cultural and social norms in Korea, including philanthropic activities, eco-friendly production, labor welfare, and respect for local traditions. By internalizing these insights, luxury brands can align their high-end image with ethical commitments, ultimately enhancing brand loyalty and market performance.

Authors: Jiao Yuheng , Zhang Dingyan
Published: February 2025

With the advancement of artificial intelligence technology, robots are increasingly replacing human labor and playing an increasingly important role in production. The research focused on goods transportation, which plays a great role in society. However, the traditional method for goods transportation was only to use the labor force, which was very inefficient and expensive if applied on a large scale and could contain life risks under dangerous working conditions. Therefore, the research attempts to explore a new method by using robotics and automation in the transportation system, where robots are the ones to carry the heavy goods, whereas human is the controller remotely. This can substantially increase productivity, and accuracy and lower the costs for transportation, leading to enormous economic benefits, as well as safety. At the end of the research, we successfully created a small remote-controlled transport cart assembled with an artificial arm, with the cart that can be moved omnidirectionally. The research carries out potential benefits for future skills development, applies theory to reality, and builds up a correlation between them.

Authors: Qian Guanglu , Li Yaoming
Published: February 2025

The rapid development of China's new energy vehicle (NEV) industry has led to a high demand for key raw materials in power batteries, with a continuous high dependence on imports, posing certain supply risks. As domestic NEVs gradually enter the retirement phase, recyclable resources have become crucial for China. Therefore, analyzing and predicting the potential distribution of recyclable resources in China's NEV industry can effectively support the capacity layout and optimization of the power battery cascade utilization and recycling industry. Research results show that in 2023, China's recyclable lithium, cobalt, and nickel metal resources were 65,000 tons, 12,000 tons, and 106,000 tons, respectively, mainly distributed in provinces such as Guangdong, Guangxi, Shandong, Henan, and Zhejiang. By 2035, China's recyclable lithium, cobalt, and nickel metal resources are expected to grow to 695,000 tons, 305,000 tons, and 2.49 million tons, respectively, with the distribution remaining largely consistent with 2023. It is recommended that provinces plan their recycling industries based on the distribution of NEV recyclable resources to avoid overcapacity or shortages. Enterprises can also plan production lines according to the distribution of key metal resources to ensure efficient utilization of capacity.
The Religion of The Customer's Location and The Supplier's ESG
Authors: Hu Shuwan
Published: February 2025

The supplier's ESG performance directly affects the sustainability of the entire value chain. Religious culture is an important component of informal institutions, influences macroeconomic development and the behavior of microeconomic entities as a social norm. This paper explores the relationship between the religion of customers in their locations and suppliers' Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance from the perspective of the supply chain. The aim is to investigate the impact of customers' religion on suppliers' ESG performance, particularly focusing on the potential impact on ESG evaluations when suppliers' top five sales customers are concentrated in a particular religion. The religion of customers can indirectly affect suppliers' ESG performance by influencing customer values, needs and preferences, and social pressures. Therefore, understanding the mechanism of how customers' religion impact suppliers' ESG performance can help companies better formulate ESG strategies and enhance their level of sustainable development. Additionally, customers from different religious backgrounds may have varying impacts on suppliers' ESG performance. For example, customers may prefer to collaborate with suppliers that align with their religious values, thereby encouraging suppliers to improve their ESG performance. China only required suppliers to disclose information about their top five customers on a policy basis starting in 2009, therefore,this paper selects and processes listed companies on the Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share markets from 2009 to 2023. we use Python to scrape geographic data of religious sites across the country and calculates geographical distances by calling latitude and longitude data through the A-map API to measure the degree of religious influence based on the number of religious sites within a certain distance from customers' locations. The study investigates customer groups from different religious backgrounds, including Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism. The findings provide important theoretical and practical guidance for companies to develop ESG strategies that align with various cultural backgrounds and emphasize the importance of considering religious factors in international operations.
A Game-Theoretic Defense Mechanism Against Blockchain Denial-of-Service Attacks in Bitcoin
Authors: Zha Chunming , Zhang Jing , Zhang Qingbin
Published: February 2025

Bitcoin, the world's first decentralized digital currency, offers a high degree of security and transparency with its distributed network based on blockchain technology. However, with the widespread use of Bitcoin and other blockchain systems, cyberattacks have become one of the major issues threatening their stability and security. Among them, BDoS (Blockchain Denial of Service) attacks and SDoS (Selfish Denial of Service) attacks, as new types of denial-of-service attacks, especially pose a significant threat to the Bitcoin network. Since the Bitcoin network adopts the Proof of Work (PoW) mechanism, BDoS and SDoS attacks force miners to stop mining or waste computing resources by exploiting the blockchain reward mechanism and creating chain forks. In this paper, based on blockchain technology and game theory, we propose an effective defense strategy to avoid denial-of-service attacks on the blockchain, and the scheme does not require modification of the existing blockchain protocol.

Study on the Impact of Financial Technology on Risk Taking of Commercial Banks
Authors: Yang Heyi
Published: February 2025

Under the impact of the wave of financial technology, commercial banks must be alert to the new risk reef hidden in the deepwater while adjusting the course and transforming. From the perspective of credit structure, based on the panel data of 42 Chinese commercial banks from 2011 to 2022, this paper constructs a two-way fixed-effect model to empirically test the impact of financial technology on commercial banks' risk taking and the mechanism of bank credit structure in it. The research finds that fintech significantly reduces the risk taking of commercial banks, and this is achieved through two paths: increasing the proportion of personal loans and reducing the proportion of manufacturing loans. Further analysis shows that fintech has a more significant effect on regional commercial banks' risk taking. This study not only provides new insights for commercial banks to develop fintech, but also provides inspiration for regulators to prevent and resolve financial risks and maintain stable economic operation.

This study aims to comprehensively explore, from an interdisciplinary perspective, how human factors such as physiological, psychological, cultural, and social aspects influence micro-spatial behavior under the concept of New Urbanism. The results indicate that these factors not only shape micro-spatial behavior within the New Urbanist environment but are also influenced by the principles of New Urbanism. These principles include walkability, mixed-use diversity, the importance of public spaces, and human-centric architecture, which further enhance the impact of human factors. Furthermore, the research emphasizes that integrating human factors into urban design can create more inclusive, dynamic, and appealing urban spaces, thereby effectively improving the quality of urban life.

Based on the analysis of the operating environment and protective functions of explosion-proof low-voltage feeder switches in coal mines, this paper proposes a temperature rise test data processing method for these switches. A temperature rise testing system for coal mine explosion-proof low-voltage feeder switches is designed to accurately measure the temperature rise at different points of the switches. This provides a reference for the development of intelligent inspection technologies for these switches in coal mines.
"Postmodern" Turn in Contemporary Art History and its Influence
Authors: Liu Mingrui
Published: February 2025

In contemporary art history, the "postmodern" turn is a highly symbolic and controversial phenomenon, which marks a profound change in artistic style and creative concept, and has caused extensive discussion and reflection in the writing, evaluation system and cultural context of art history. The post-modern turn does not occur in isolation, but is closely related to many social and cultural changes in the middle and late 20th century. From the rise of mass culture, the formation of consumer society to the rise of post-structuralism philosophy, these factors have jointly shaped the pluralistic face of post-modern art.. It breaks the linear development logic and elite aesthetic standards advocated by modernism, and instead emphasizes the pluralism, openness and cross-culture of art. Through collage, appropriation and deconstruction, post-modern art re-examines the essence and boundary of art, changes the way of artistic creation, and also poses new challenges to the writing of art history, prompting people to rethink the value and significance of art.
Stock Trend Prediction for Energy Sector Stocks Based on Investor Sentiment and Deep Learning
Authors: Long Keyu
Published: February 2025

The energy industry has always been one of the focuses of attention for investors and the media, among others, due to its special characteristics. Energy companies can be sensitively driven by a variety of factors such as policy changes, international situation and investor sentiment, etc. Traditional forecasting models are unable to make accurate predictions based on factors such as industry characteristics, and how to effectively capture these complex factors as well as more accurately predict stock prices in this industry based on these factors has become one of the important topics in financial research. In this study, we use historical trading data of energy stocks, take advantage of deep learning to process time series data and capture the dependencies between features, construct a stock prediction model with energy industry characteristics, and experimentally evaluate the model. The experimental results show that the prediction results are superior with the addition of industry characteristic indicators as well as indicators generated from texts related to the industry, which suggests that compared to generalized prediction models, models based on sentiment text analysis and deep learning are able to effectively identify and capture industry characteristics and make more accurate predictions.
