On Vulnerability
Authors: Seguró Mendlewicz Miquel
Published: November 2024

We tend to understand vulnerability in one of two ways: (1) the measure of everything that happens to us, or (2) that it legitimizes the current discourses and the halo of authority that fashion grants. However, we should think of vulnerability as being affectable both to and by others. In On Vulnerability: A Philosophical Anthropology Miquel Seguró Mendlewicz projects vulnerability as a condition of human life and the central concept to understand our existential position in the world. The philosophical journey is structured around two fundamental areas: the existential reality of vulnerability (its pathos) and the decision to integrate it and live it as an ethical and political reality (its ethos). Using the work of René Descartes, whose philosophy the author presents as conducive to meditating on vulnerability, Seguró Mendlewicz proposes a philosophical reflection that projects vulnerability as a condition of human life in all its magnitudes. Therefore, this book explores all facets of vulnerability, the real impact of what being vulnerable means, and the dangers implied when something becomes trendy.

Published: November 2024

This study explores the representation of violence against female characters in Indonesian horror novels, examining how these portrayals reflect societal views on gender and power. By analyzing three popular novels, the research focuses on types of violence—physical, psychological, and symbolic—that female characters experience, aiming to uncover how these depictions critique patriarchal norms. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, the study uses textual analysis alongside a feminist narrative framework to interpret recurring themes and patterns within these narratives. Findings reveal that, while female characters are often portrayed as victims, they also demonstrate moments of resistance and agency, challenging traditional roles and societal expectations. This ambivalent portrayal highlights both the vulnerability and resilience of women, offering insights into the complex dynamics of gender in Indonesian culture. The study concludes that Indonesian horror novels serve as a powerful medium for social critique, using horror to comment on issues of gender-based violence and the potential for women to disrupt oppressive structures. This research emphasizes the role of literature in reflecting and challenging societal norms, particularly regarding the representation of women.

Philosophy of Mental Heath based on the Catholic Meta-model of the Person
Authors: Titus Craig Steven ,   The National Catholic Bioethics Center
Published: November 2024

This article explains a philosophy of mental health in the light of human dignity and flourishing from the perspective of a Catholic Christian meta-model of the person (meta-model). It conceptualizes healing as the search to attain wholeness of health, flourishing, and holiness through integrated practices at biophysical, emotional, mental, moral, social, and spiritual levels. Healing attains positive change consistent with human nature and flourishing through intra- and interpersonal sources. The paper uses the meta-model as a framework for integration and makes explicit the presuppositions of a philosophical anthropology and ethics that synthesize insights from psychology, philosophy, and theology. It compares the metamodel to contemporary human sciences and ethics, such as that of positive psychology and confirms a value-, virtue-, and vocation-based approach to understand a Catholic philosophy of mental health and bioethics.

Published: November 2024

Timor-Leste is one of the countries with a high incidence of dengue fever (DHF), especially during the rainy season. Until now, there is no specific effective treatment for dengue virus, so prevention is an important step in reducing the spread of this disease. This study aims to determine the relationship between family characteristics and basic sanitation with DHF prevention through the moderating variable of health promotion in Dom-Aleixo Administrative Postu, Dili Municipality, in 2024. The research method used was descriptive quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. The study population included all heads of households in Dom-Aleixo Administrative Postu, with a total of 122,699 households, and the sample taken was 100 households. The data analysis technique used Pearson Product Moment, and took into account research ethics. The results showed that there was a moderate relationship between family characteristics and DHF incidence (r = 0.413). When moderated by health promotion, this relationship became stronger (r = 0.548). In addition, basic sanitation showed a very strong association with DHF incidence (r = 0.686), and this association remained very strong when moderated by health promotion (r = 0.545). Overall, the combination of family characteristics and basic sanitation moderated by health promotion had a very strong association with DHF incidence (r = 0.693). This study implies that health promotion plays an important role in strengthening the relationship between family characteristics and basic sanitation with DHF prevention, and that improving health promotion can be an effective strategy in reducing DHF cases in Timor-Leste.

Tacit Knowledge Mapping for Business Intelligence Analysis
Authors: Janna Alisha Barqha
Published: November 2024

The tacit knowledge in a higher institution, especially in university libraries, contains a series of intuition and inspiration that a librarian arises in exploring solutions to the various problems. Thus, limited sources of knowledge or information is a critical factor in the failure to provide accurate information. The main problem of the BI system is to capture tacit knowledge and use tacit knowledge as one of the data sources for data analysis to enhance the analytic results. The unstructured data can define as tacit knowledge in the form of data and information presented in the Knowledge Management System (KMS), and the cognitive business use both structured and unstructured data with highly sophisticated analytical techniques to identify, evaluate, and recommend a business plan of actions. The idea of being able to capture knowledge from different sources can be very beneficial to the BI system. This paper explored the solution to extracting tacit knowledge from librarians in order to enhance the data sources to be used in the BI by exploring the library's academic services, which use much tacit knowledge for answering questions with the requirement of data analysis as online or offline queries.

Adaptation Strategies of Smallholder Farmers in Facing Climate Change and Its Impact on Livestock Productivity in Rural Areas
Authors: Mujayin Yudi , Rahayu Ritha , Afandi
Published: November 2024

Climate change presents significant challenges to smallholder farmers, particularly in rural areas where livestock farming is a primary source of income. This study explores the adaptation strategies employed by smallholder farmers to mitigate the effects of climate change on livestock productivity. Using a qualitative approach, the research adopts library research methods, reviewing existing literature on climate adaptation in small-scale farming. The findings indicate that farmers have adopted a range of strategies, including adjusting feeding practices, improving water management, and diversifying livestock breeds to enhance resilience. Furthermore, community-based approaches, such as sharing resources and knowledge among farmers, play a critical role in bolstering adaptive capacity. While these strategies have proven beneficial in certain contexts, the literature also highlights limitations in access to information, financial resources, and government support, which restrict the effectiveness of these measures. The study emphasizes the need for comprehensive policies and programs that integrate local knowledge and provide adequate support to smallholder farmers. Improved access to financial aid, climate-smart technologies, and training in sustainable practices are vital for long-term adaptation. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how smallholder farmers are coping with the ongoing challenges posed by climate change and provides insights for policymakers aiming to enhance agricultural resilience in rural areas.
Frustrated superconductivity and intrinsic reduction of Tc in trilayer nickelate
Authors: Qin Qiong , Wang Jiangfan , Yang Yi-feng
Published: November 2024

Identifying the key factors controlling the magnitude of Tc is of critical importance in the pursuit of high-temperature superconductivity. In cuprates, Tc reaches its maximal value in trilayer structure, leading to the belief that interlayer coupling may help promote the pairing. In contrast, for the recently discovered nickelate superconductors under high pressure, the maximum Tc is reduced from about 80 K in the bilayer La3Ni2O7 to 30 K in the trilayer La4Ni3O10. Motivated by this opposite trend, we propose an interlayer pairing scenario for the superconductivity of La4Ni3O10. Our theory reveals intrinsic frustration in the spin-singlet pairing that the inner layer tends to form with both of the two outer layers respectively, leading to strong superconducting fluctuations between layers. This explains the reduction of its maximum Tc compared to that of the bilayer La3Ni2O7. Our findings support a fundamental distinction between multilayer nickelate and cuprate superconductors, and ascribe it to their different (interlayer versus intralayer) pairing mechanisms. Furthermore, our theory predicts extended s±-wave gap structures in La4Ni3O10, with varying signs and possible nodes on different Fermi pockets. We also find an intrinsic Josephson coupling with potentially interesting consequences that may be examined in future experiments. Our work reveals the possibility of rich novel physics in multilayer superconductors with interlayer pairing.
Lactic acid bacteria protect the growth of Solanum lycopersicum from Sodium dodecyl sulfate
Authors: Lee Lauren , Shin Jieun
Published: November 2024

Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), used in various detergents, deters the growth of many plants when it remains in soil from cleaning. Plants are likely to be exposed to SDS because it could be washed down the drain and end up in the waterways. To protect plants from environmental hazards and to promote plant growth, it is critical to reduce the phytotoxicity of SDS. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), a special type of probiotic, have been shown to protect plants from various chemical hazards and boost plant growth. In this study, we hypothesized that LAB could play a role in supporting plant growth against SDS-induced stress based on the multiple plant-proliferation capabilities of LAB. We measured tomato growth in Petri dishes and soil in terms of the germination rate, weight, and length of the sprouts. In Petri dishes, SDS significantly reduced the germination rate and growth of tomato sprouts at concentrations of 0.8 mM. Tomato seeds grown in 0.8 mM SDS solution resulted in a 46% and 48% reduction in sprout length and weight, respectively, compared to the non-treated group. Incubation with 5 million CFUs/mL LAB and 0.8 mM SDS reduced the length and weight of the tomato sprouts by just 6% and 20%, respectively, compared to the non-treated group. In soil culture, the addition of 10 million CFUs/mL LAB to 5 mM SDS solution increased the germination rate and plant growth compared to the SDS-only group. This finding suggests that LAB can help plants sustain in environments contaminated by detergents containing SDS.

Supply Chain Concentration of Manufacturing Companies and Its Impact to Financial Performance: Basis for Action Plan
Authors: Luqing Fu , Domingo Arjhel
Published: November 2024

This study examined the impact of supply chain concentration on the financial performance and resilience of manufacturing companies in Chongqing. The respondents primarily consisted of staff from six manufacturing companies, including finance professionals, business leaders in supply chain management, and related personnel. The research considered a wide range of factors, including business diversity, years in operation, product types, scope of operation, and the number of employees, to explore their intricate relationships and their potential influence on supply chain concentration. The comprehensive analysis of profitability, liquidity, efficiency, and stability parameters indicated a consensus that supply chain concentration plays a significant role in positively influencing the financial performance, operational efficiency, and overall resilience of manufacturing companies. These findings underscored the multifaceted benefits of supply chain concentration in the manufacturing sector. However, the analysis of risk exposure and vulnerability to disruptions parameters highlighted another consensus that supply chain concentration in manufacturing firms also introduced amplified strategic and operational risks. This emphasized the importance of adopting a balanced approach that combines the efficiency benefits of concentration with robust risk management strategies to ensure resilience and minimize the financial impact of disruptions. To address the implications of supply chain concentration, a proposed action plan outlined three strategies for enhancing the financial performance of manufacturing firms: Supply Chain Diversification Strategy, Financial Performance Assessment, and Supply Chain Risk Mitigation Strategy. Each strategy spanned a six-month timeline and required specific resources and processes to achieve their respective goals.
Дипломатическата активност между Папството и Византия в навечерието на Фераро-Флорентинския събор и ключовата роля в нея на духовника хуманист Кристофоро Гаратоне
Authors: Попова Ивайла
Published: November 2024

Статията проследява дипломатическите контакти между Папството и Византия в периода след Събора в гр. Констанц и в навечерието на Събора във Ферара – Флоренция (1418 – 1437). В центъра на изследването са дипломатическите инициативи на папа Евгений IV в лицето на Кристофоро Гаратоне (1433 – 1437) и пратеничествата на византийския император Йоан VIII Палеолог до папата и до Събора в град Базел. Въз основа на различни извори – папски були и писма, византийски документи, регести и др. – изследването представя папските инициативи към Византия в опит да се постигне съгласие на Събора и да се сключи уния между Източната и Западната църква. От друга страна, проследена е дипломатическата активност спрямо Запада – византийските пратеници маневрират между папата и представителите на съборното движение, търсейки най-добрите условия за постигане на уния с политическа цел, така че Западът да окаже помощ за спасяването на Византия от османската заплаха.
Обредни рефлексии и трансформиране на традициите – по примера на обичая Калогерос, с. Мелики, Гърция
Authors: Маркова Мира , Пачаманова Ина
Published: November 2024

В центъра на научната разработка е обичаят Калогерос, изпълняван в понеделник след Месни заговезни в с. Мелики, Гърция. Фокус на изследователския интерес е проследяването и анализирането на промените в обичайно-обредната система, които се пречупват през социални, исторически и културни трансформации, настъпили както в конкретната селищна общност, така и в контекста на балканската действителност. Авторите поставят акцент върху факторите, които оказват влияние върху промяната в част от елементите на обредността. Обръща се и внимание на причините за запазването на други от тях, които се отличават със значителна автентичност и консервативност. Емпирична основа на изследването са включени наблюдения, проведени през 2023 г. и през 2024 г., както и полуструктурирани интервюта с различни представители на общността на с. Мелики. От гледна точка на анализа и резултатите е важно да се уточни, че част от носителите на културата и преки участници в изследваната обредност са потомци на преселници от региона на с. Кости, Странджа, които се установяват в с. Мелики окончателно през 1940 г. Сред местната общност тези потомци са известни като „костианиди“. Обредността е пример за устойчивост на традиционни реалии, въпреки променената екологична, културна и историческа ниша.
