MULTI-RESPONSE OPTIMIZATION OF DIELECTRIC FLUID MIXTURE IN EDM USING GREY RELATIONAL ANALYSIS (GRA) IN TAGUCHI METHOD
Authors: Forestryani Veniola , Rosyadi Niam , Ahsan Muhammad
Published: September 2022

In the current study, combining the powder with dielectric fluid in electrical discharge machining (PMEDM) is a very fascinating technological approach. This approach is the most effective at increasing both productivity and the quality of a machined surface at the same time. The Taguchi–GRA approach was used to optimize the surface roughness (SR), material removal rate (MRR), and micro-hardness of a machined surface (HV) in electrical discharge machining of die steels in dielectric fluid with mixed powder. Workpiece materials (with 3 levels such as SKD61, SKD11, and SKT4), electrode materials (with 2 levels such as copper, and graphite), pulse-on time, electrode polarity, current, pulse-off time, and titanium powder concentration were all used in the study. The effect on the ideal results was also evaluated using some interaction pairings among the process parameters. Powder concentration, electrode material, electrode polarity, current, pulse-on time, pulse-off time, and Interaction between workpiece material and powder concentration were obtained to be significant in the ideal condition, where larger MRR and HV are wanted (as per the HB criterion), but lower values are desired for the remaining responses, such as surface roughness (SR). Powder concentration was also discovered to be a major component, however, it only accounts for 8.35 percent of the ideal condition. MRR = 54.36 mm3/min, SR = 5.65 m, and HV =832.66 HV were the best quality attributes based on the grey grade.

AN ITERATIVE PROCEDURE FOR OUTLIER DETECTION IN GSTAR(1;1) MODEL
Authors: Huda Nur'ainul Miftahul , Mukhaiyar Utriweni , Imro'ah Nurfitri
Published: September 2022

Outliers are observations that differ significantly from others that can affect the estimation results in the model and reduce the estimator's accuracy. To deal with outliers is to remove outliers from the data. However, sometimes important information is contained in the outlier, so eliminating outliers is a misinterpretation. There are two types of outliers in the time series model, Innovative Outlier (IO) and Additive Outlier (AO). In the GSTAR model, outliers and spatial and time correlations can also be detected. We introduce an iterative procedure for detecting outliers in the GSTAR model. The first step is to form a GSTAR model without outlier factors. Furthermore, the detection of outliers from the model's residuals. If an outlier is detected, add an outlier factor into the initial model and estimate the parameters so that a new GSTAR model and residuals are obtained from the model. The process is repeated by detecting outliers and adding them to the model until a GSTAR model is obtained with no outliers detected. As a result, outliers are not removed or ignored but add an outlier factor to the GSTAR model. This paper presents case studies about Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever cases in five locations in West Kalimantan Province. These are the subject of the GSTAR model with adding outlier factors. The result of this paper is that using an iterative procedure to detect outliers based on the GSTAR residual model provides better accuracy than the regular GSTAR model (without adding outliers to the model). It can be solved without removing outliers from the data by adding outlier factors to the model. This way, the critical information in the outlier id is not lost, and an accurate ore model is obtained.
The Systemizer of Imâmiyah Fiqh: Muhakkık Hillî and His Opinions on Usul
Authors: TÜRKAN Mustafa
Published: September 2022

In this article, the opinions of Muhakkık Hillî, one of the important scholars of the Shia-Hilla madrasah, on the fiqh methodology are summarized. Muhakkık Hillî rose to the position of the leader of the Shia-Hilla madrasah during his lifetime and brought the Shia-methodological thought to a systematic structure thanks to the books he left. While Hillî, on the one hand, touched on almost all the subjects of the fiqh methodology in his methodological work named al-Meʿâric fî uṣûli'l-fiḳh, on the other hand also mentioned the shar'i proofs at the beginning of his fürû-i fiqh work al-Muʿteber fî şerḥi'l-Muḫtaṣar. While explaining his methodological views, he prioritized his sectarian affiliation with his thoughts that for the acceptance of the news, the narrators must be imâmî and for ijma to be evidence, there must be the imam among the people of ijma'. According to Muhakkık Hilli, the ulema have to make ijtihad in order to meet the social needs, since the twelfth imam's occultation has lost contact with the imams. For this reason, fiqh method is important since it is necessary to determine the rules of action. According to him, the basis of shar'i judgments are five: book, sunnah, ijma, reason and istishap. Muhakkık Hillî does not include the description of the book in his work on fiqh. However, he gives examples from the Qur'an by introducing concepts such as zahir, nass, muevvel, mucmel, âmm, hass, emir and nehiy in the book. While the sunnah is divided into three as word, act and taqrir in terms of its structure, it is divided into mutawatir and al-khabar al-wāhid in terms of narration. If the members of Imāmiyyah accept a al-khabar al-wāhid, or if the truth of the khabar supports the intellect, the text of the book, the absolute sunnah and the presumptions of ijma, then action is taken with that khabar. Ijma is the alliance of people whose word is respected in religious affairs. It is possible for ijma to be realized in shar'i words and actions. At the time of the offer, it is absolutely necessary to have an innocent imam who protects the shari'ah, and it is obligatory to refer to his word in shari'a matters. Therefore, in order to be able to talk about ijma in any matter, there must be an innocent imam among those who participate in ijma. Muhakkık Hillî also examines the evidences of reason and istishap by dividing them into various parts. With these aspects, al-Meʿāric fī uṣûli'l-fiḳh is important for the Imāmiyyah sect, as it presents the identity of a compact fiqh method.
Vişnenin Cinsiyeti Romanında Bahtin’in Grotesk Gerçekçiliğinin Ekosantrik Açıdan Yeniden İncelenmesi
Authors: ŞENSOY Ayşe , AYAN Meryem
Published: September 2022

Jeanette Winterson’s Sexing the Cherry (1989), which is regarded as one of the best examples in the postmodern fiction, offers a new space for re-considering genders, identities and environmental problems by effacing the boundaries of story/history, self/other, male/female, reality/fantasy, material/immaterial, nature/culture, natural/unnatural, and human/nonhuman. Questioning the monologic discourses of anthropocentrism and androcentrism, the novel deals with social restrictions, political upheavals, religious conflicts, authoritative inequalities, gender issues, and environmental destruction in multiple contexts. Winterson’s novel presents the voice, subjectivity and agency of the monstrous, the most feared, the ignored, the muted and the oppressed, including all human beings regardless of their gender and nonhuman life forms. To achieve this aim, the author retells some events in English history in a detailed way through the voices and perspectives of larger-than-life characters. In doing so, Winterson seeks to deconstruct the officialdom, authoritarian power relations, political hierarchies and social inequalities. She also attempts to eliminate the patriarchal and anthropocentric biases and norms for ecological justice. In this sense, the novel suggests a carnivalesque space with a multiplicity of self and voice and offers a dialogic world with infinite possible ways of existence, fluidity and interdependence of beings. Within this framework, this article seeks to explore Sexing the Cherry in the light of Bakhtinian grotesque realism within the ecocentric view to discuss the effects of the authoritarian, hierarchical and patriarchal attitudes of the human on human and nonhuman communities. In her novel, the author tries to revive the agency of the nonhuman to oppose Cartesian binary oppositions that keep humans away from their physical environment and lead to an anthropocentric tendency that reduces both nature and all its nonhuman inhabitants to objects. Therefore, the article aims to show grotesque responses and challenges demonstrated by the main characters to the environmental problems depicted in the novel. Consequently, Winterson, in accordance with Bakhtin’s grotesque realism, imagines a world of optimism and equality and focuses on the union and harmony of the human with the nonhuman.
Ahmet Mithat Through The Eyes Of Sabri Esat Siyavuşgil
Authors: SAVAŞ Kudret
Published: September 2022

Sabri Esat Siyavuşgil’in 1945-1946 eğitim-öğretim yılının açılış dersi töreninde verdiği “Ahmet Mithat-Mürebbi” başlıklı konferansı bu çalışmanın konusunu oluşturmaktadır. Bu konferans metni daha sonra “Üniversite Konferansları 1945-1946” başlığıyla Kenan Matbaası tarafından İstanbul’da basılmıştır. Aynı metin İstanbul Kültür dergisinde “Ahmet Mithat Efendi- Rönesans Adamı I-II” ve “Ahmet Mithat Efendi Bize Neler Öğretti III-IV?” başlığıyla 1 Mart-15 Nisan 1946 tarihleri arasında dört sayı boyunca yayımlanmıştır. Sanatçının İstanbul Üniversitesi’nin açılış dersi olarak verdiği bu konferans ne yazık ki dergi sayfalarında unutulmuştur. Oysa Siyavuşgil’in bu konuşmada Ahmet Mithat Efendi ile ilgili kullandığı “Rönesans Adamı” ifadesi bile edebiyat tarihimiz açısından kendi başına yeteri kadar ilgi çekicidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Ahmet Mithat Efendi’yle ilgili yaygın kanının dışında farklı bir yaklaşım ortaya koyan sanatçının fikirlerini inceleyerek Siyavuşgil’in bu konudaki yaklaşımını belirlemektir. Siyavuşgil’in Ahmet Mithat hakkındaki düşünceleri, yakın zamana kadar edebiyat tarihimizde kendini belli eden olumsuz yaklaşımdan ciddi biçimde farklılık göstermektedir. Siyavuşgil, Ahmet Mithat hakkındaki bu olumsuz yargıların ortaya çıkış nedenlerine değindikten sonra her birini çürütecek düşünceler ileri sürer. Bu bakımdan Siyavuşgil’in söz konusu konferansı, Ahmet Mithat hakkındaki erken dönemde ortaya konan ciddi bir inceleme mahiyeti taşımaktadır.
Typological Analysis of Historical Ankara Baths
Authors: KARAKUŞ Filiz , ÖZCAN Zuhal
Published: September 2022

Ankara kenti, ilkçağlardan itibaren birçok uygarlığa ev sahipliği yapmış bir coğrafi alandır. Selçuklular ve özellikle Osmanlı dönemlerinden kalan cami, mescit, han, hamam gibi pek çok tarihi yapının bulunduğu şehirde bu yapılardan bir kısmı bilinçsizlik, yangın, doğal afetler ve bayındırlık işleri nedeniyle yok olmuştur. Bu araştırmanın konusu şehirdeki tarihi hamam yapılarına ilişkin bir tipoloji çalışması üzerine kuruludur. Bu amaçla öncelikle literatür taraması yapılarak hamamların ve yıkanma kültürünün tarihsel gelişimi üzerinde durulmuş, sonrasında kentte bulunan tarihi hamam yapıları tespit edilmiştir. Tespit edilen yapılar üzerinde kaynak ve arşiv araştırması yapılarak bu yapılar yerinde incelenmiştir. Anadolu Selçukluları, Beylikler ve Osmanlı dönemlerinde Ankara şehrinde birçok anıtsal yapı inşa edilmiştir. Bu dönemlerde inşa edilen ve çalışmaya konu olan hamam yapılarından Cenabi Ahmet Paşa Hamamı, Hasan Paşa Hamamı, Tahtakale (Kaledibi) Hamamı, Bey Hamamı, Sultan Hamamı’nın tam yeri belirlenememiş, merkezde yer alan Keçeciler Hamamı ise günümüze kadar ayakta kalamamıştır. Çalışma kapsamında Altındağ Şengül Hamamı, Karacabey Hamamı, Eynebey Hamamı, Eskicioğlu Camii bitişiğindeki ev hamamı, Kızılcahamam Sey Hamamı, Beypazarı Rüstem Paşa Hamamı ve Beyoğlu Hamamı ile Ayaş Paşa (Belediye) Hamamı ve Karakaya Hamamı incelenmiştir. Anadolu’daki hamam yapılarına ilişkin pek çok çalışma olmasına rağmen Ankara’daki tarihi hamamlara ilişkin detaylı bir çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı, toplumda yıkanma kültüründe görülen değişikliklerin takip edilebilmesi bağlamında Ankara’daki tarihi hamam yapılarının tipolojik olarak değerlendirilmesi ve kültür sürekliliği çerçevesinde korunması konusuna dikkat çekilmesidir. Bu vasıtayla söz konusu yapıların korunmalarına yönelik bütüncül bir veri oluşturulması hedeflenmektedir. Ayrıca, yapılan çalışmanın incelenen yapıların korunmasına ve ileride yapılacak müdahale kararlarına kaynak olabileceği düşünülmektedir. Tespit edilen yapılardan bir bölümünün yıkılmış olması ve bu yapılara ilişkin yeterli bilginin bulunmaması bu çalışmanın sınırlılığını oluşturmaktadır.
Süyûtî’nin Kur’ân Kıssalarına Yaklaşımı ve Kıssalardan Hüküm İstinbâtı (el-İklîl Fî İstinbâti’t-Tenzîl Örneği)
Authors: YELATAN Ahmet
Published: September 2022

Kur’ân’ı Kerîm, yaklaşık yirmi üç yıl zaman zarfında, Hz. Peygamber’e (s.a.v.) indirilen, insanları karanlıklardan aydınlığa çıkartan, tüm insanlar için evrensel bir mesaj, tüm Müslümanlar için de bağlayıcı ilahi bir kitaptır. Kur’ân’nın muhtevâsına baktığımızda bunun üç temel unsur üzerine inşâ edildiğini görürüz ki bunlar; itikad, amel ve ahlaktır. Temel gayesi, insanları dünyada saadete, ahirette de kurtuluşa ulaştırmak olan Kur’ân, bu sebeple her dönemde âlimlerin temel uğraşısı olmuştur. Kur’ân’la hemhâl olan her âlim, Kur’ân’ın anlaşılması noktasında farklı bir metod benimsemiştir. Bu âlimlerden biri de Memlüklerin hüküm sürdüğü yıllarda yaşamış olan Celâleddin es-Süyûtî’dir. (öl. 911/1505) Süyûti, Kur’ân’ın önemli bir bölümünü teşkil eden kıssaları, klasik müfessirlerin aksine farklı bir yol benimseyerek te’vîl etmeye çalışmıştır. Süyûtî’nin Kur’ân kıssalarına yaklaşımını ele aldığımız bu çalışmada, el-İklîl fî İstinbâti’t-Tenzîl adlı tefsir eserini örnek göstererek, bu tefsir eserinde yer alan kıssaların, klasik diğer tefsirlere göre tek bir yönünün bulunmadığı örneklerle izah edildi. Kur’ân’ın önemli bir kısmını oluşturan kıssalar, nazil olduğu dönemdeki muhatap kitleye Hz. Peygamber’in (s.a.v.) davet zamanı ile ilgili bilgiler sunarak, zihinlerde mâzi, hâl ve istikbale âit, muhatabın dünya-âhiret mutluluğu için bir profil meydana getirir. Kur’ân kıssaları, ilahi mesajın amacını gerçekleştirmede başvurulan bir vasıtadır. Müfessirler genellikle Kur’ân kıssalarını edebî-ahlakî açıdan ele almışlardır. Kıssaların, Hz. Peygamber’i (s.a.v.) ve müminleri teselli, düşmanları tehdit amacı taşıdığına dikkatleri çekmeye çalışmışlardır. Elbette böyle bir şey Kur’ân’ın büyük bir bölümünü oluşturan kıssaların tek gayesi değildir. Bu yönüyle kıssalara tek bir pencereden bakmak, Kur’ân’ı eksik anlamaya yol açabilir. Süyûtî’nin, Kur’ân kıssalarına nasıl yaklaştığı konusu çalışmamızın temelini oluşturacaktır. Konuya dair eserinden örnekler sunulacaktır. Bu yönüyle Süyûti’nin, kıssalara farklı bir pencereden yaklaştığını ve onlardan hüküm istinbât ettiğini görmüş olacağız.
Curse in Folk Songs: An Example of TRT Folk Music Repertory
Authors: DİKMEN Melek , TERKİN Talha
Published: September 2022

Türküler, kaynağını halktan alan bir kültür hazinesidir. İnsanların sevdalarını, aşklarını, kahramanlıklarını, duygularını, hüzünlerini, gelenek ve göreneklerini sonraki nesillere intikal ettirmek için bir vesiledir. Türküler, halkın yaşantısına dair pek çok unsurdan da izler taşımaktır. Bu bağlamda türküler, kimi zaman ruhları okşayan sevda sözleriyle beslenir, bazen de hoşnutsuzlukların bedduaya dönüştüğü yakarışların ilticagâhı olur. İlenç, kargış olarak da adlandırılan ve üzüntü, sitem, kızgınlık anlarında söylenen beddualar, kulağa hoş gelmemekle beraber türkülerde çokça yer bulan ifadelerdir.Bu çalışmada TRT Halk Müziği Repertuvarında yer alan 5259 türkü incelenmiş ve beddua ifadeleri, muhatapları açısından tasnif edilmiştir. Tespit edilen kargışlar bazen aile bireylerine yönelikken bazen kişinin kendisine yöneliktir. Türkülerde sevdalık üzerine yapılan bedduaların daha kapsamlı olduğu görülmektedir. Zira kişiyi sevdiğinden ayıran arabozucuların beddua oklarına maruz kalmamaları düşünülemez. Türkülerde yalan dünya, kötü geçen yıllar, düşmanlar, gurbet, tabiat unsurları, şehirler, köyler ve genel sebeplere dair birçok konu ile ilgili beddua unsurlarına rastlamak mümkündür. Her ne kadar kültürümüzde beddua etmek, uzak durulması gereken ve hoş karşılamayan bir durum olsa da, nükteli ve yergili hüviyete sahip olan bu kalıp sözlerden zaman zaman istifade edildiği görülmektedir. Türkülerde çeşitli sebeplerle canı yanan kişiler tarafından doğrudan muhatabına ya da dolaylı olarak arkasından “Evin yıkılsın, belin bükülsün, yurdunda baykuşlar ötsün, ateşlere yan, seherde açılan gülün solsun, Allah’ından bul, genç yaşlarına doyma, döşeklerde yat, dermansız derde uğra, gözyaşın kurumasın, töremiyesin, sorgu sualini veremeyesin, ettiğini bulasın, yorgan döşek yatasın, ömrün tükene…” gibi farklı beddua ifadeleri kullanılmaktadır. Yörelere göre değişen söyleyişlerin de yer aldığı türkülerdeki beddualar, kişinin baş edemediği durumlarda Allah’a sığınması, bir anlamda manevî yollarla hakkını arama çabasıdır.

Authors: Oyarzún-Gómez Denise , Ferrán Casas Aznar  , Ferrán Casas Aznar  , Jaime Alfaro  , Paula Ascorra
Published: September 2022

Adolescents live in constant interaction with their family, school and neighbourhood domains, affecting them and being affected by them, playing an active role in their subjective well-being. The aim of the study was to determine the influence of family, school and neighbourhood domains on the life satisfaction of Chilean adolescents. The sample consisted of 1392 adolescents who participated in the International Survey on Children's Well-Being (ISCWeB) in Chile. The results showed that a structural equation model configured with five dimensions referring to family, school and neighbourhood jointly contributed to explain 41% of the variance in students' life satisfaction. When adding the variables gender, age and school vulnerability index to the model, no influence on life satisfaction was observed. An unexpected finding, contradictory to other studies, was that satisfaction with school had no influence on this model. The implications of the study are that the results can serve as a diagnostic for proposing subjective well-being interventions based on strengthening students' family, school or neighbourhood domains.
Effect of the differential discount value on the purchase prediction: an approach from associative learning
Authors: Rodríguez González Liliana Yamile , Aristizábal Cuéllar José Alejandro , Tejada Herrera Héctor Julián
Published: September 2022

The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of changing the context in which a product with different discount values has been associated with purchase prediction. Participants were trained in a learning task where they had to predict the probability of a result (purchase of a product) based on different images (products), presented in different contexts (stores). In store A, product X associated with different discount values (50%, 30%, 0%) and the product Z associated with a constant discount (30%) were presented. In store B, product Y was presented without discount (0%). Control products without discount were presented in each context (F1 and F2). The results indicate that the differential discount value is context dependent, which means that the probability of purchase is greater when the product with a variable discount is presented in the same store where the association with multiple discounts was previously learned. This effect was less with the product with constant discount and was not observed in the product without discount. The implications of these findings are discussed considering the effectiveness of discount promotional strategies in stores.

Differential expression of EEF1A1 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: September 2022

Neurodegenerative diseases that affect the motor neurons, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), have little treatment options and are generally rapidly fatal (1, 2). We harnessed the power of unbiased, whole transcriptome differential gene expression analysis, utilizing primary patient cells and tissues to discover genes whose expression defines ALS using published data (3, 4). We found significant differential expression of EEF1A1, encoding eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 1, in the primary motor neurons of patients with ALS. EEF1A1 was also differentially expressed in the skeletal muscle of patients with ALS. EEF1A1 transcript was present at significantly lower levels in ALS patient motor neurons as compared to control motor neurons. These analyses will begin to define the transcriptional landscape of ALS.

We harnessed the power of unbiased, whole transcriptome differential gene expression analysis, utilizing primary patient cells and tissues to discover genes whose expression defines ALS using published data (3, 4). We found significant differential expression of DHRS9, encoding dehydrogenase/reductase 9, in the motor neurons of patients with ALS. DHRS9 was also differentially expressed in the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived motor neurons of patients with ALS. DHRS9 transcript was present at significantly higher levels in ALS patient motor neurons as compared to control motor neurons. These analyses will begin to define the transcriptional landscape of ALS.

The Impact of Neurotypical Cognition on Communication Deficits Attributed to Pathologized People: Schizophrenia as a Case Study
Authors: Hodgins Vegas , O’Driscoll Gillian A. , Titone Debra
Published: September 2022

Social communication deficits have been robustly documented in schizophrenia-spectrum disorders. Historically, attempts to lessen this dysfunction have focused almost exclusively on modifying the person with schizophrenia’s own behaviours and cognition. However, social communication is inherently dyadic, and this approach leaves unaddressed the role of the neurotypical interlocutor in communication breakdown. In this position piece, we review psycholinguistic theories and research in order to propose a more comprehensive and equitable understanding of the social dysfunction that people with schizophrenia experience. We do so by drawing attention to the manner in which neurotypical individuals may drive communication failure in schizophrenia. Stigma is proposed to be a major component of this phenomenon. In addition to an overview of our theoretical framework, we provide a research agenda to test the hypotheses this framework has produced. We hope this piece can inform future research directions within psycholinguistics.
Worries about the COVID-19 pandemic and the dynamic regulation of emotions in the general population: A network analysis study

Published: September 2022

Background: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health has been widely reported. Yet, little remains known about the psychological mechanisms associated with changes in mental well-being during the currently ongoing pandemic. Methods: Here, we use a network analysis to unravel complex relationships between COVID-19 related stressors and emotional states during the initial phase of the COVID-19 (April 2020). Adults living in the Netherlands and Belgium (N=1145, age 16 and older) (repeatedly) completed an online survey about COVID-19.Results: Partial correlations and contemporaneous networks illustrated that worries about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic were primarily associated with distress and mood ratings, which were subsequently associated with other indicators of well-being. Temporal network analysis revealed that COVID-19 worries selectively associated with the reciprocal interplay between high distress and low affect (https://osf.io/vtdkr/). Limitations: Short-term temporal intervals were evaluated. The sample was self-selected.Conclusion: These results may point to one potential mechanisms by which initial worries about the COVID-19 pandemic may have impacted psychological well-being.
Learning and retention of new symbolic representations of number

Low numeracy is associated with a range of economic and social costs. Learning to map non-symbolic representations of number (e.g., ‘•••••’) onto symbolic ones (e.g., ‘5’) is a critical step in numerical development. We asked whether non-symbolic representations could become symbolic through repeated exposure. Participants judged numerosity by adding two dice with faces that were digits, canonical dot configurations (standard dice), or non-canonical dot configurations. At first, response times to sum non-canonical configurations increased steeply and approximately linearly with number (~120 ms per dot), suggesting serial enumeration. In contrast, response times to sum digits and canonical configurations increased only marginally with number (~20 ms per dot), suggesting that both were processed as symbols. Each participant then performed the task in eight one-hour sessions over two weeks, using a consistent set of non-canonical dot configurations. Learning occurred quickly despite the absence of feedback or explicit instruction. The response-time slope became shallower with each session, signifying a shift from serial enumeration to symbolic processing; ultimately it was statistically indistinguishable from the slope for canonical dice. Learning transferred to untrained dice sums, but not to untrained noncanonical dot configurations; and the advantage of trained configurations remained after 3 and 12 months without intervening retraining. These findings suggest that the novel configurations became symbolic representations of exact number for the participants.

MILITARY «RESPONSES» IN LATIN AMERICA AND EUROPE TO THE CHALLENGES OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
Authors: Piatakov Andrei
Published: September 2022

The article explores the global phenomenon of using armed forces institution in the COVID-19 pandemic prevention, from the perspectives of Latin America and Europe, selected as research objects, because both regions had suffered the strongest pandemic «blows» in terms of mortality. Using the methodology of comparative analysis, the author considers the main parameters of the Latin American and European countries military strategies to combat the spread of coronavirus infection. He detects tendencies of militarization of political leaders` discourse, most vividly manifested in official statements of European politicians. One of the basic distinctive features of Latin American experience is massive mobilization of military contingent in order to complete sanitary and epidemiological tasks in key Latin American countries, such as Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, etc., while in European countries it was moderate. The article gives an overview of the key missions and activities of armed forces on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. The analysis reveals that Latin American military activities have been dominated by the repressive component, expressed in the missions to ensure social and spatial control. European security institutions concentrated on solving humanitarian, logistic and medical problems. The author shows that in the New World, the military received expanded administrative powers in order to resolve the sanitary crisis. In European countries, the civilian control level turned out to be higher, and administrative functions were delegated in Italy alone. The author compares international communication styles in the two regions, and considers the cases of mutual assistance through the military department. European countries have demonstrated much higher level of coordination and interstate interaction, in contrast to Latin American states.
CURRENT TRANSFORMATIONS OF PENSION SYSTEMS IN EUROPEAN AND LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRIES
Authors: Ermolieva Eleonora , Shestakova Elena
Published: September 2022

The article observes the evolution of pension policy in European and Latin American countries over the last 25-30 years. The main reason for the profound changes occurred in this area lies in the marked acceleration in population aging, taking place both in the Old and the New World, including Latin America, considered a young region for a long time. The cross-country comparative analysis shows that the main tasks of reforms consist in ensuring the long-term financial sustainability of pension systems, preventing further growth of spending on public pension schemes by raising the retirement age and prolonging the labor activity of senior people. Gradual expansion of population covered by accumulative (funded) pension plans, in addition to distribution component, is another tool. Meanwhile the actual situation demonstrates that the initiatives of some European governments, following the recommendations of international financial institutions, are not always adequately perceived by the society (Spanish and French cases are representative examples). Moreover, it should be pointed out that European experience is actively examined in Latin America during the ongoing reforms to create multi-level national retirement systems, and greater attraction of private entrepreneurial capital for public financing of social security models. A review of the publications of Russian scientists shows that the latest world experience is not ignored in our country, where the task of more reliable social protection of pensioners is on the agenda.
