Authors: Mughofar Ahmad , Lia Vina Puspita , Kuswanto Eko
Published: December 2023

The continuous utilization of fossil energy has resulted in serious impacts on the environment and the Earth. In order to reduce the use of environmentally harmful fossil energy, UIN Raden Intan Lampung, as one of the eco-friendly campuses in Indonesia, is committed to transitioning to renewable energy, particularly through the use of solar panels to generate electrical energy. The aims of this research were to evaluate the effectiveness and utilization of solar panels in the male dormitory building of Ma’had Al-Jami’ah UIN Raden Intan Lampung in meeting electricity needs. The research methodology involves observation, interviews, and questionnaire completion as data collection efforts. The research findings indicate that solar panels generate an average of 381.33 watts of electricity per day, equivalent to 13.24% of the maximum electrical power that can be produced. However, the contribution of solar panels covers only 0.20% of the total electricity needs in the male dormitory building. Upon further analysis, the effectiveness of solar panels in meeting electricity needs, particularly for lighting in the building, is only 13.94%. Therefore, it can be concluded that the contribution of electrical energy generated by solar panels to the total and lighting needs in the male dormitory building is considered "ineffective."AbstrakPemanfaatan energi fosil secara terus menerus telah mengakibatkan dampak serius pada lingkungan dan bumi.

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English.

In this paper, I first reiterate the views of Lyreskog et al. and stress the importance of discussing ethical questions in the context of ABT—a topic that has clearly not received enough attention in China. Second, given the current state of Chinese applied ethics, I focus on what Lyreskog et al. refer to as a “seismic shift in how we conceptualize much of what we take to be core values in medicine and healthcare” (Lyreskog et. al 2023, 11–34) to explain how to realize the innovative progress of ABT ethics in contemporary China. I agree in principle that frameworks aiming to offer ethical guidance in ABT situations should use ontologies and taxonomies that allow for conceptual flexibility and redesign. These frameworks should also be subjected to philosophical critique and modified in light of scientific practice.
為什麼侵入性腦機介面技術是危險的

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English.

我們反對侵入性腦機介面應用於人類，主要原因是，我們還幾乎不知道人的意識產生的機制，侵入性腦機介面技術有可能抹掉人的意識；除此之外，應用介面的人很容易被外人控制，失去自由。總之，它違反了以下三條“非對稱原則”：1. 從客體到主體這個方向，資訊越通暢越好，控制信號阻滯度越高越好。2. 從主體到客體這個方向，控制信號越暢通越好，資訊密封度越高越好。3. 以上兩條的鬆動調節，以最嚴苛的程式保證以各個主體為主導。作為人機介面的代替方案，我們開以採用作為“擴展心智＂的互聯網和電腦來實行。傳統上，道家哲學按其義理也為反對侵入性腦機介面技術提供了支援。

People oppose the application of invasive brain–computer interfaces to humans, mainly because they still know little about the mechanism by which human consciousness is generated and such technology could erase human consciousness. In addition, people using brain–computer interfaces can easily be controlled by outsiders and lose their freedom. In other words, brain–computer interfaces violate the following three asymmetry principles. (1) From the object to the subject, the smoother the information flow, the better, and the higher the degree of control signal blockage, the better. (2) From the subject to the object, the smoother the control signal flow, the better, and the higher the degree of information sealing, the better. (3) The relaxation of the above two principles should be carried out using the most stringent procedure to ensure that each subject takes the lead. As a substitute for brain–computer interfaces, we can use the Internet and computers as a kind of “extended mind.” The principles of traditional Taoist philosophy also support opposition to invasive brain–computer interfaces.

Although intelligent robots can have rationality and thinking beyond those of ordinary people, they do not possess human dignity, nor can they become consistent with human beings in terms of social status, rights and dignity. Human dignity includes life dignity and personal dignity. Brain–computer interface technology may not only pose a serious external threat to the dignity of human life but also endanger the embodied existence of human beings, resulting in the separation of body and mind and violating people’s personal dignity.
比較技術倫理學視域下的腦機介面技術

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English.

Zhai Zhenming compares brain–computer interface (BCI) technology with artificial intelligence technology and other mind extension technologies (such as ChatGPT), which I refer to as “comparative technology ethics.” I believe that it is meaningful to conduct research using comparison in the field of bioethics or technical ethics. I attempt to develop this type of comparative research and propose a comparison between risk-in-experiment technology and risk-of-effect technology. Although in some respects BCIs fall into the first category, the question of whether BCIs should be prohibited should be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English.

The emergence and application of brain–computer interface technology have raised many ethical concerns related to individual autonomy, privacy, and potential for abuse. I support technological progress, but I emphasize ethics first. I believe that the application of brain–computer interface technology should respect the inherent value and dignity of every life. Subject to caution, exploring the use of this technology to alleviate the suffering of terminally ill patients could be considered. The principles of non-maleficence and proportionality of benefits and risks should also be upheld when applying this technology. At the same time, it is necessary to formulate reasonable ethical standards for technology, establish ethics committees, and supervise the research, development, and application of this technology.

Film and the Disembodied Voice
Authors:   Griffith University Film School (Australia) National Film and Television School (UK), Crittenden Roger
Published: December 2023

The use of voice-over often divides both filmmakers and critics - its opponents objecting to the borrowing of a literary device. By examining a multitude of examples this paper seeks to demonstrate that it has often enhanced the effectiveness of film narrative both in the actual storytelling and the emotional impact, by applying a sensitivity in the writing and a careful casting of the voice and performance of the unseen actor or actors.
The future of audio-visual designers with a focus on sound
Authors:   Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Lensing Jorge
Published: December 2023

Sound designers have historically been associated primarily with the realm of films, TV-movies, and series production. However, the scope of their influence is expanding significantly beyond these domains. Notably, professionals in the fields of museum curation, festivals, theatres, and planetariums are increasingly recognizing the transformative potential of incorporating audio-visual elements into their presentations, thereby enhancing the overall quality of audience engagement. Traditionally, many museums have relied on subpar audio guides and monotonous recordings played through inadequate loudspeakers to accompany their exhibits. In stark contrast, innovative exhibition concepts are foregrounding the profound impact of audio-visual installations. These installations completely rethink exhibition experiences, offering visitors entirely new dimensions of engagement within the realms of art, history, and science. In the context of planetariums, a substantial majority of shows continue to feature cosmological themes and scientific narratives presented in full-dome environments. Nevertheless, universities and younger audio-visual designers are now pioneering groundbreaking advancements in immersive audio-visual experiences. The evolution of theatre is yet another arena undergoing a profound metamorphosis due to the integration of audio-visual elements. As multimedia theatre forms such as picture theatre, new music theatre, and dance theatre increasingly embrace interactive electronic media, the traditional theatrical experience is undergoing a paradigm shift. This departure from convention is ushering in a new era of audio-visual performance quality that transcends prior artistic boundaries. Given these transformative trends, the study of sound design is compelled to evolve in tandem. Incorporating visual tasks into the curriculum is becoming imperative, as sound designers navigate these innovative frontiers of multimedia integration. By embracing cross-disciplinary approaches that encompass both sonic and visual dimensions, aspiring sound designers will be better equipped to shape the future of immersive audio-visual storytelling across a diverse array of creative platforms.
Sound Dramaturgy
Authors:   Edinburgh Napier University, Stutterheim Kerstin
Published: December 2023

Sound dramaturgy as part of the aesthetic design of documentary films is invisible but most relevant, although often overlooked. The chapter gives a short introduction to dramaturgy and the importance of sound dramaturgy as most impactful for documentary film productions. The main discussion focusses on sound dramaturgy in films as The End Of Time (Mettler); The Island Of The Hungry Ghosts (Brady 2018), The Wale And The Raven (Leuze 2019) and El Sembrador de Estrellas (The Sower of Stars) by Lois Patiño. An analysis and discussion of the components of sound and music as part of the overall dramaturgical concept, the narrative flow, and their contribution to the final production and its sensual impact on the audience will allow a more informed understanding of such approach.
“Sound-Conscious” Screenwriting: Considering sound as storytelling tool in the screenplay
Authors:   Nanyang Technological University, Slater Ben
Published: December 2023

This essay considers issues relating to how sound has been treated historically by screenwriters, and advocates for a more “sound-conscious” screenwriting practice. From my own position as a screenwriter and educator of student screenwriters I begin by looking at common assumptions about the use of sound in screenplays and explore the challenges of including sound as part of a screenwriting practice; then I develop a framework by which screenwriters can identify different categories of sound in order to recognise potential for using sound as a storytelling tool within screenplays. This leads to an analysis of two examples of what could be defined as sound-conscious screenwriting, The Conversation (1974) and A Quiet Place (2018) and the framework is also applied to a sample of recent unproduced screenplays. I conclude with thoughts about how ‘sound-consciousness’ can be encouraged through the pedagogy of screenwriting.
Editorial: Sound – Screen – Research
Authors:   Nanyang Technological University, Campbell Kym , Williams Ross Adrian ,   Nanyang Technological University
Published: December 2023

The dynamic dance of sound and image in the cinematic landscape continually prompts thoughtful analysis and reflection. Michel Chion’s 2019 insight, “You do not see the same thing when you hear, and you do not hear the same thing when you see,” captures a nuanced truth. For those steeped in the world of sound studies, this observation seems almost self-evident, underscoring the balanced role each sense plays in our cinematic experiences. Yet, it’s worth noting that only some people share this perspective. Sound has a subtle way of entering our awareness, often operating in the shadows of our consciousness. Its influence, though sometimes unnoticed, is deeply powerful—acting as the invisible puppeteer of our emotional responses and steering our interpretation of stories.

Published: December 2023

Міжнародна економічна інтеграція України є вкрай актуальною для стабільності та підвищення рівня економічного розвитку. Наразі - це один з пріоритетних напрямів зовнішньоекономічної політики країни. Навіть сьогодні, зі значними зруйнованими потужностями, Україна має потенціал для інтеграції у глобальну економіку. Розташування країни в центрі Європи, її природний і людський капітал, а також геополітичне значення створюють сприятливі умови для розвитку міжнародної співпраці. У статті аналізуються основні угоди про вільну торгівлю, укладені Україною з іншими країнами. Розглядається динаміка показників експорту та імпорту як результат роботи зон вільної торгівлі. Зони вільної торгівлі відіграють важливу роль у сприянні експорту та імпорту, що розширює можливості та потенціал для бізнесу. Зростання обсягів експорту та імпорту демонструє здатність України бути конкурентоспроможною на міжнародних ринках, а також забезпечує різноманітність вибору товарів та послуг. Умови теперішнього стану економіки України під час повномасштабного вторгнення Росії викликають складнощі в утриманні темпу розвитку економічної співпраці з країнами-партнерами в обсягах до лютого 2022 року. Враховуючи складність сучасних глобальних викликів, міжнародна економічна інтеграція є ключовим інструментом для забезпечення стабільності та розвитку України, сприяє покращенню її позицій на світовій арені.Ключові слова: міжнародна економічна інтеграція, зона вільної торгівлі, експорт, імпорт, розвиток, економіка, кризовий період.

Modification of the Leslie Model on Population Growth in the Bangka Belitung Islands Province
Authors: Prayanti Baiq Desy Aniska , Maxrizal Maxrizal , Setiawan Fahri
Published: December 2023

The Leslie model is one of the applications of Algebra in solving a population growth model. The birth rate and survival rate of a population are constituents of the Leslie Matrix. The advantage of this model is that it only requires data on the total female population. This study aims to modify the classic Leslie Model by adding correction values to matrix elements, especially birth rates and survival rates. The correction value is obtained from the minimum Euclidean distance for each birth rate and survival rate for each population age group. The Euclidean distance is used because it requires simple calculations. Based on the modified results, the Perron value obtained from the Leslie matrix is 0.9. If the constant value is zero, then the modification of the Leslie model will be the same as the classic Leslie model.
Metafísica y ontología feministas en las Relaciones Internacionales
Authors: Lenine Enzo
Published: December 2023

¿Cómo la metafísica feminista informa los compromisos ontológicos de los feminismos en las Relaciones Internacionales (RI)? Desde la entrada de los feminismos en las RI, los debates sobre epistemología y metodología han dominado las discusiones entre las feministas de la disciplina. Las reflexiones sobre la ontología, en especial sobre el género como categoría, parecen resolverse en torno a la noción de construcción social. Sin embargo, exactamente qué y cómo se construye el género merece una mayor exploración en la investigación feminista de las RI. En este artículo, establezco un diálogo entre la Filosofía y las RI con el objetivo de aportar una metafísica feminista para la ontología del género. Recurro al modelo de atribución de Ásta para sustentar una forma de explicar los mecanismos de construcción social del género que interesan a las feministas en las RI y ejemplifico su uso a través del debate entre feministas empiricistas y críticas.
México en la Unión de las Repúblicas Americanas. El panamericanismo en la política exterior mexicana, 1889-1942
Authors: Herrera León Fabián
Published: December 2023

El libro de Veremundo Carrillo Reveles, México en la Unión de las Repúblicas Americanas. El panamericanismo en la política exterior mexicana, 1889-1942, tiene características singulares que lo hacen muy atractivo para historiadores e internacionalistas, interesados de manera obvia en la política exterior de México y su despliegue diplomático en el ámbito histórico del panamericanismo. La investigación de corte histórico e internacional que condujo a la realización de esta obra es la de una tesis doctoral madurada y realizada en el Centro de Estudios Históricos de El Colegio de México bajo la dirección de Carlos Marichal, un bien conocido historiador económico mexicano, pero también impulsor y editor de una obra de referencia sobre las comúnmente llamadas Conferencias Panamericanas. Es notorio, tan pronto se adentra uno en el resultado, que la investigación llevada a cabo por Carrillo Reveles fue planteada con propósitos muy ambiciosos en cuanto a temporalidad (1889-1942, principio y fin del panamericanismo anterior a la Organización de Estados Americanos, oea, fundada en 1948) y problematización, aprovechando criterios de innovación analítica puntuales y originales. También se aprecian rigurosidad y disciplina en el estudio de una abundante historiografía sobre el tema general del panamericanismo, y de éste con énfasis en México. Esta labor de investigación encontró su profundidad en un número importante de acervos archivísticos y bibliohemerográficos nacionales y extranjeros, todos ellos pertinentes y demandantes de una estrategia inteligente para su consulta y aprovechamiento. La investigación, enriquecida y revisada en el marco de diversos seminarios especializados dirigidos a la defensa de un mejor producto final, consiguió un inmediato reconocimiento académico a través de tres premios bien reputados: el Premio Genaro Estrada de la Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores (2018), el Premio a la Mejor Tesis de Doctorado del Instituto Panamericano de Geografía e Historia, perteneciente a la oea (2020) y la mención honorífica en el Premio Francisco Javier Clavijero del Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia (2019).

Genealogías imaginadas: Kymlicka, el multiculturalismo y el liberalismo
Authors: Aguilar Rivera José Antonio
Published: December 2023

El artículo formula una explicación crítica de la teoría del multiculturalismo de Will Kymlicka y de sus consecuencias prácticas. Al cuestionar su coherencia intelectual, el trabajo pone en entredicho la genealogía del multiculturalismo que ofreció Kymlicka. Esa explicación de los orígenes evidencia la ambivalencia del filósofo a propósito del universalismo. El multiculturalismo de Kymlicka también es inconsistente en cuanto a la protección de los derechos individuales de las minorías culturales. El artículo plantea dudas sobre el carácter liberal de su teoría porque se basa en el nacionalismo para concebir justificaciones normativas en contra de hacer cumplir los derechos individuales de manera exógena. Además, el trabajo evalúa el papel del multiculturalismo en el mundo y en el abandono de algunos propósitos incumplidos del constitucionalismo liberal aportando algunas evidencias de la Colombia del siglo XX.

GROWTH AND YIELD OF RUBBER TREE (Hevea brasiliensis) CLON PB260 FROM DIFFERENT OF WEED ECOSYSTEM
Authors: Habibulloh  , Harun M. Umar , Sulaiman Firdaus
Published: December 2023

Community rubber tree plantations in Indonesia are the main source of national natural rubber production and a source of income for farmers. Low rubber price has limit farmers' ability to control weeds using herbicides and mechanically. This situation causes the formation of three ecosystem conditions based on the level of weed growth, namely well-maintained plantations, shrubs on rubber plantations, and forests on rubber plantations. Therefore, this research studied and compared tree growth and rubber yields from three of weed ecosystems. Field research was designed using a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three ecosystems as treatments and three replications. Three plots of size (10 m x 10 m) were made for each weed ecosystem in the rubber plantation, and three sam-pling rubber trees were selected so that the number of rubber trees observed was 9 trees for each ecosystem. Based on ANOVA, it showed that the weed ecosystem had a significant effect on the yield of rubber trees. Trees maintained well had the highest lumps (537 kg/6monts/ha), not significantly different from forested rubber trees (478 kg/6monts/ha. The dominant weeds in each ecosystem were Hevea brasiliensis and Acacia auriculiformis. Forested plantations had higher yields relatively more stable, producing lumps per week of 107.55 g/tree to 188.15 g/tree.
Peran Sholat dalam Mengatasi Depresi
Authors: Laela nur Laela
Published: December 2023

Depression is a mental health disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. In recent decades, there has been an increasing trend toward a comprehensive approach to managing depression. Depression is a natural emotional problem. Depression must be treated appropriately and correctly in order to provide therapeutic benefits. One area that is receiving more attention is the role of religious activities, such as prayer, in helping individuals overcome depressive symptoms. Prayer therapy contains messages built on concepts that aim to form a person with character. Prayer is effective in healing someone who suffers from mental disorders such as depression and problems in life. The role of prayer for health is that there are four therapeutic aspects to prayer: the exercise aspect, the meditative aspect, the suggestive aspect, and the joyful aspect. By living a passionate life, we can realize each individual's abilities and potential in a variety of different lifestyles. The goal to be achieved is to develop studies on individuals suffering from mental disorders (depression) so that they become positive individuals for each individual with underlying conditions, as well as the possibility of optimal happiness through prayer. From the role of prayer, a person can overcome the problems faced in life and become a healthy person.
Hypercomplex Quaternions and Higher-Order Analysis of Spatial Kinematic Chains
Authors: Condurache Daniel , Cojocari Mihail , Popa Ionuţ
Published: December 2023

This paper introduces a novel computational method for analyzing the higher-order acceleration field of spatial kinematics chains. The method is based on vector and quaternionic calculus, as well as dual and multidual algebra. A closed-form coordinate-free solution generated by the morphism between the Lie group of rigid body displacements and the unit multidual quaternions is presented. Presented solution is used for higher-order kinematics investigation of lower-pair serial chains. Additionally, a general method for studying the vector field of arbitrary higher-order accelerations is discribed. The method utilizes the “automatic differentiation” feature of multidual and hyper-multidual functions to obtain the higher-order derivative of a rigid body pose without need in further differentiation of the body pose regarding time. Also is proved that all information regarding the properties of the distribution of higher-order accelerations is contained in the specified unit hyper-multidual quaternion.
Physical Principles in Revealing the Working Mechanisms of Brain. Part V
Authors: Mazilu Nicolae
Published: December 2023

Still after the right concept of universe, we extract from the Einstein-de Sitter debate presented previously the physical characteristics of a continuum charge background to serve for the description of brain. This time we settle for the cosmological metric of the universe, which appear to be well suited for the brain, and the content in events of a generic universe serving for the definition of events in the brain. The hologram is also defined as a general characteristic of a universe, in order to serve in describing the process of memory. The idea of coherence is used, in order to define the frequency in an invariant way.
Carers as mentors in inclusion: The case of Cyprus
Authors: Charalampous Constantia Adamos
Published: December 2023

Despite the progress in education in recent years, the marginalization of students identified as having special educational needs (SEN) persists. Students characterized as having SEN is one of the factors that could change the status quo and lead to greater inclusion. The current research project adopted a mixed methodology to investigate this possibility. The research was conducted in five secondary schools in Cyprus, and 138 people participated. As the research is now complete, we can conclude that carers of students characterized as having SEN can act as mentors of both SEN children and non-SEN childrens

Authors: Sinanaj Luan , Bexheti Lejla Abazi
Published: December 2023

Road accidents have increased rapidly in recent years for a variety of reasons. Analyzing and visualizing road accidents through heatmaps can help improve policies for their prevention by informing about areas with a high-risk of road accidents.

The purpose of this research is to build a model for the analysis and visualization of road accidents through heatmaps. Information about road accidents is extracted from the news of the main online media portals through scripts in the Python language and Web Scraping techniques. From the extraction of about 30,000 articles from news portals for one year, only 829 were selected in the end that provided information about road accidents.

As a result, and contribution of this research, a corpus was built with the geographic coordinates of road accidents and on this data our model was applied for the analysis and visualization of high-risk areas of road accidents using heatmaps. The visualization of heatmaps was done through a Python script, where it was applied to the geographic coordinates of road accidents.
Effect of varieties and applications of clove oil on growth, productivity, and pest and disease resilience of soybean
Authors: Haryati Yati , Kusyaeri Hamdani Kiki
Published: December 2023

Efforts to increase soybean productivity are carried out in various ways, including improving cultivation technology and applying pest and disease control technologies for soybeans. In addition to chemical pesticides, pest and disease control can use botanical pesticides or biopesticides, including those made from clove oil. This study aimed to determine the effect of varieties and clove oil on the growth, production, and pest-disease resilience of soybean. The study was conducted at Majalengka Regency, West Java, Indonesia from April to July 2021. The research used a factorial randomized complete block design with four replications. The first factor was soybean genotypes: Dena 1, Dega 1, and Anjasmoro. The second factor was the concentration and interval of application of clove oil: control, 3 mL L-1 with an interval of 10 days, 3 mL L-1 with an interval of 15 days, 5 mL L-1 with an interval of 10 days, and 5 mL L-1 with an interval of 15 days. The results showed that the Dena 1 variety had the highest plant height, number of branches, number of pods per plant, and dry weight per plant. The Dega 1 variety produced the highest weight of plant dry mass, dry pod shell weight, and 100-grain. Anjasmoro variety had the highest root length and number of nodules per plant. The Anjasmoro was more resistant to leaf caterpillar attacks, while the Dena 1 was more resistant to leaf rust disease. Botanical pesticides derived from clove oil affected various aspects of soybean growth including plant height at 60 days after planting, weight of dry biomass, root length and number of root nodules per plant, dry pod shell weight, dry seed weight, and 100-grains weight.

Keywords: botanical pesticide; clove oil; Glycine max; root nodulation; variety

By focusing on developments over time, this study aims to provide an in-depth understanding of how the canals in Batavia, which characterized the city during colonial times, played a role in establishing the segregation patterns that can be observed today. The research methodology involves historical analysis of canals, literature research, and postcolonial discourse analysis to reveal the correlation between canal structures and segregation patterns in Jakarta's urban space. These findings were integrated with interviews and a participatory approach to understand local community perspectives on the perceived impacts of segregation. The research results highlight how the canals in Batavia are not only physical but also symbolic elements in the formation of urban space. Over time, these canals can become associated with social and economic divisions, creating inequalities in access to city resources and services. The implications of these findings provide a basis for deep introspection into Jakarta's current urban spatial challenges, demonstrating the need for inclusiveness-oriented urban planning to overcome persistent segregation. Thus, this research encourages awareness of the complexity of interactions between physical and social elements in Jakarta's urban space. Directed towards solutions based on an understanding of history and contemporary reality, this study is expected to provide valuable insights for more holistic, equitable and sustainable urban planning in the future.

This study attempts to unveil the interrelationships between marital and housing tenure status of female adolescents and adults in Jakarta province. Although gender equality becomes one of the prioritized sustainable development goals, the housing tenure of female adolescents and adults, according to their current marital status, is rarely examined for ensuring their tenure security and improvement of well-being. The employed mixed-method research with sequential quantitative-qualitative methods delivers the crosstab analysis to identify the majority of types of housing tenure according to the marital status of 289 female respondents, and axial coding from interviews with the selected respondents to understand the interrelationship between their marital and housing status. The result highlights that life-course events such as entering marriage, parenthood, and marriage dissolution lead to housing mobility and tenure changes, which are driven by financial capacity for meeting physiological and psychological needs. It emphasizes the meaning of a house for women as a haven for physical and psychological refuge, rather than a mere representation of social status. It complements the academic conversation on the gender-related topic of housing and also enriches the housing policy, planning, and design to meet the objective of the gender equality program according to sustainable development goals.

Athelia rolfsii, Curzi adalah bentuk seksualitas dari spesies Sclerotium rolfsii, Sacc, salah satu spesies jamur patogen yang dapat menyebabkan beberapa penyakit mematikan pada tanaman seperti busuk batang, layu dan rebah kecambah. Jamur ini merupakan jamur tular tanah yang dapat bertahan lama dan membentuk sklerotia di dalam tanah. Biasanya serangan dari patogen A. rolfsii, Curzi, ini masyarakat petani cenderung mengendalikannya dengan pemakaian pestisida yang berbahan aktif kimia. Hasil monitoring pengendalian yang memakai fungisida sintetis dalam mengendalikan patogen menimbulkan dampak negatif, akibat dari residu pestisida pada produk pertanian, serta resistensi dan resurgensi penyakit. Oleh sebab itu perlu dicari pestisida sebagai pengendali yang tidak mempunyai dampak negatif. Diantaranya adalah pemakaian pestisida yang bahan aktif tanaman ataupun hayati. Dari hasil beberapa penelitian yang telah dilakukan, setiap bahan baku yang berbeda akan mempunyai daya hambat yang berbeda pula. Untuk itu akan diuraikan dibawah ini hasil-hasil penelitian sebagai pengendali A. rolfsii Cruzi dari golongan fungisida nabati dan agens hayati.ABSTRACTAthelia rolfsii, Curzi is a form of sexuality from the species Sclerotium rolfsii, Sacc, one of the pathogenic fungal species that can cause several deadly diseases in plants such as stem rot, wilting and drooping of sprouts. This fungus is a soil-borne fungus that can survive for a long time and form sclerotia in the soil. Usually the attack is from the pathogen A. rolfsii, Curzi, the farming community tends to control it by using pesticides with active chemical ingredients. The results of monitoring control using synthetic chemical fungicides in controlling pathogens have a negative impact, as a result of pesticide residues in agricultural products, as well as disease resistance and resurgence. Therefore it is necessary to look for pesticides as controllers that do not have a negative impact. Among them is the use of pesticides with active plant or biological ingredients. From the results of several studies that have been carried out, each different raw material will have a different inhibition power. For this reason, the results of research as controllers for A. rolfsii Cruzi will be described below from the class of botanical fungicides and biological agents.

Published: December 2023

Subject. We investigate trends in the development of the organic agriculture market in the world and in Russia.
Objectives. The purpose is to explore the condition of the organic products market worldwide and in Russia.
Methods. The study rests on statistical data published by the National Organic Union of Russia and the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL). We applied statistical methods of data processing and the ‘Deductor’ program to perform the development analysis.
Results. We conducted the statistical analysis of the market growth prospects based on the growth period from 2012 to 2022, using the correlation analysis and considering the smoothing of peaks with the help of Deductor software. We found that, all other things being equal, no external changes (an increase in investment volume, the number of manufacturers, etc.), there was a downward trend in the market due to a fairly small number of certified manufacturers. As a result, the market cannot show sustainable growth and entry into the international economic arena. To develop organic agriculture production in Russia, both private investments and government support measures are needed.
Conclusions. Over the past 20 years, the global market of organic agriculture products has demonstrated a steady growth. If a resource base and systems of legal and State regulation are available, Russia has a huge potential and prospects to become one of prominent players in this market. Despite the difficulties, since 2012, the Russian organic market has been showing sustained growth.

Published: December 2023

Subject. The article addresses the management of suspicious financial transactions in conditions of digitalization.
Objectives. The aim is to present the main stages of State informatization and digital transformation in Russia, clarify indicators of suspicious financial transactions in the period of development of digital and information technologies, define evaluation criteria for suspicion indicators as a risk management tool under digitalization of economic relations.
Methods. We employed methods of systematization, grouping, reasoning, and abstraction.
Results. The paper presents the evolution of State informatization and digital transformation in Russia, defines indicators of suspicious financial transactions, suggests criteria to assess suspicion indicators. We confirmed the need for monitoring suspicious financial transactions to manage risks associated with money laundering from criminal proceeds, and financial losses related to digital technologies.
Conclusions. The analysis of stages of digitalization of economic relations in Russia enables to trace the development of suspicious financial transactions and, on this basis, identify risk of losses, formulate control measures to manage these risks, using the proposed indicators and criteria for their assessment. As a result, it is possible to update the list of typical suspicious financial transactions for the awareness of heads of organizations to make timely management decisions on risk minimization.
Causality of ruble devaluation
Authors: SMIRNOV Valerii V.
Published: December 2023

Subject. This article discusses the issues related to the problem of devaluation of the Russian ruble.
Objectives. The article aims to show the causality of the devaluation of the Russian ruble.
Methods. For the study, I used a systems approach based on a statistical analysis.
Results. The study reveals a significant increase in the debt of the non-financial sector and households, and the high volatility of quoted shares of Russian issuers.
Conclusions and Relevance. The causality of the devaluation of the ruble, associated with the need to securitize Russian assets in the context of growing international reserves in terms of the sufficiency of financing twenty percent of liabilities in US dollars and a decrease in the gold content of the ruble, indicates the possibility of influencing the ruble exchange rate to the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. The provisions of the study expand the competence of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation to form a set of measures to stabilize the ruble exchange rate.
Corporate fraud, inertia and market conditions in explaining the differences in the exchange characteristics of bonds in the Russian market
Authors: KOROTKIKH Vyacheslav V.
Published: December 2023

Subject. This article deals with the empirical tests of asset pricing models with Russian bonds.
Objectives. The article aims to analyze risk factor sensitivities for bond portfolios using asset pricing models with prominent factors and newly proposed risk factors, based on bond market fundamental anomalies, and identify term structure of factor loadings through hidden bond market states corresponding to business cycle stages.
Methods. We used the Hidden Markov Model to recover the sequence of bond market states based on spread of ten-year minus three-month government bond yields.
Results. The article provides evidence of the significant contribution of the newly proposed risk factors, corresponding with corporate fraud, and momentum factors to the explanatory power of asset pricing models for bond portfolios excess returns. Specifically, we find a strong idiosyncratic momentum effect in the cross-section of Russian bond returns and hence introduce a bond idiosyncratic return momentum factor. We introduce hidden bond market states based on spread of government bond yields and show that proposed market states are statistically and economically significant. We examine the state-dependent explanatory power of the risk factors for test portfolios.
Conclusions. The study contributes to the risk estimation accuracy, and presents theoretical framework and empirical evidence of factor-based investing in fixed income instruments. Investors in the Russian bond market should account for bond exposure to the newly proposed risk factors in the risk-adjusted performance analysis of bond portfolios.
