Seismic vibration mitigation of a multi-story building structure using rate-independent linear damping
Authors: Luo Hao
Published: July 2024

It was well established that rate-independent linear damping (RILD) can benefit base-isolated building structures by reducing the isolator displacement without increasing the floor response acceleration. In the present study, we further extended the application of RILD for seismic vibration mitigation of multi-story building structures. For this purpose, a gradient-based optimization method was presented to determine the locations and required quantities of RILD elements. A ten-story benchmark building structure was employed as an analytical example, and the effectiveness of the proposed method was verified by comparing the performance of the RILD controlled structures using different damper placement methods. Moreover, parametric studies were conducted to investigate the effect of RILD on the dynamic behavior of the optimally controlled structure. The performance curves of the benchmark structure enhanced with optimally placed RILD and viscous dampers were further compared in terms of the control cost and structural inter-story drift. It is suggested that RILD can be advantageous over the conventional viscous damper by more effectively mitigating the seismic vibration response of a multi-story building structure without increasing the control cost.

Rhythmic Structure in Infant-Directed Communication
Authors: Kalashnikova Marina , Fernández-Merino Laura , RUSSO SOFIA
Published: July 2024

Infant-directed communication has been proposed to facilitate early language development, not only by providing infants with ample native language input but also by tailoring this input to infants’ individual developmental needs. In particular, extensive research has investigated prosodic and phonetic adaptations in caregivers’ infant-directed speech proposed to support early language acquisition, but more recently, research focus has shifted to the rhythmical properties of this register. This chapter will review this recent evidence, and it will argue that rhythmic optimization is not limited to infants’ early speech input. Instead, it is present across the auditory, visual, and tactile domains of caregiver-infant communication. We will argue that infants enjoy access to optimized intersensory rhythmic input, which scaffolds their ability to segment the continuous speech signal into meaningful linguistic units, even when these units occur with weak regularity in naturally produced adult-directed speech.
Training and Development for Teacher Competency Enhancement: A Case of Community School Teachers
Authors: Mainali Bhawani Prasad , Bhurtel Khem Khumar
Published: July 2024

This study aims to examine the level of competency related to training and development with new structures and roles in the community school teachers. Enhancing competency is a priority in training and development as it helps teachers provide high-quality teaching and learning experiences. In this study, a qualitative multiple database document analysis approach was employed. Questions about training and development for competency enhancement were posed in an attempt to find answers from the associated literature review of community school teachers. Primarily in settings with limited resources, community schools are essential for educating large numbers of students. Yet, the quality of the teachers at these institutions has a major issue in their efficacy. Human resource development in educational organizations should outline the goals and outcomes of training and development in order to give community school teachers more competency. In order to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and to promote lifelong learning opportunities for all students, it is crucial to improve the competency of community school teachers through training and development. The community, as a whole benefits, when teachers are empowered via training and development programs. Educational officials should prioritize providing financial aid and encouragement for training and development programs, as community school instructors are essential to achieving educational equity. Enhancing the competency of community school teachers through training and development is not just a moral obligation but also a strategic investment in the future of entire communities.

Authors: Derova T. G. , Shishkin N. V. , Ivanisov М. М. , Kononenko O. S.
Published: July 2024

The purpose of the current work was to search for sources of winter wheat varieties’ resistance to the most common pathogens of the area under artificial infectious backgrounds and recommend them for inclusion in the breeding process. The study was carried out on the experimental plots of the laboratory for plant immunity and protection of the FSBSI Agricultural Research Center “Donskoy” in 2021–2023. In order to expand the genetic diversity in immunity of newly developed varieties, it is necessary to use new sources of resistance. The objects of study were 78 winter wheat varieties from interstation variety testing, representing various breeding institutions in Russia and some foreign varieties. The study material was presented by the North Caucasian populations of pathogens of such wheat leaf diseases as powdery mildew, brown and yellow rust, and leaf spot (Septoria). Infectious backgrounds were formed according to generally accepted methods, using spore material of pathogens both stored and collected from crops in the previous year (types of rust) and collected from overwintered plants in the spring (powdery mildew, leaf spot). Weather conditions varied across the years of study (mainly in the autumn), but the damage to susceptible test varieties in the experiments was maximum. As a result of the study of the varieties on their resistance to one pathogen, there have been identified 23 varieties resistant to powdery mildew, 56 ones to leaf rust, 47 ones to yellow rust, 8 varieties to leaf spot. There has been given a characteristic of varieties according to various degree of resistance or susceptibility to each pathogen. On the resistance to two pathogens, there have been identified 17 varieties resistant to brown and yellow rust, 2 varieties resistant to brown rust and powdery mildew, 2 varieties resistant to yellow rust and powdery mildew, 1 variety resistant to brown rust and leaf spot. Ten varieties have shown resistance to no one pathogen, but they have had moderate resistance or moderate susceptibility to several other pathogens. 20 varieties were resistant to three diseases in various combinations, and 16 of them were resistant to brown, yellow rust, and powdery mildew. One variety ‘MV Nador’ from Hungary showed resistance to all 4 pathogens. All resistant varieties identified in the study can replenish the supply of winter wheat sources to the complex of leaf diseases for breeding purposes or be used in integrated crop protection against leaf diseases.
Diversity of sunflower rust pathogen biotypes (Puccinia helianthi Schwein.) in the Rostov region
Authors: Lepeshko E. S.
Published: July 2024

In the last decade there has been established an increase in the prevalence of Puccinia helianthi in sunflower crops in Russia. In the Rostov region, on the territory of the Don Experimental Station (the Azov region), severe damage by the sunflower rust pathogen was established in 2020. In this regard, there was a need to study the race of the fungus on sunflower crops in the Rostov region. The purpose of the study was to identify rust pathogen isolates collected from sunflower crops in accordance with the accepted international triplet nomenclature in different areas of the Rostov region in the period 2021–2023. As testers, there was used a set of differentiating lines of sunflower resistance to the pathogen, containing SM 90, SM 29, P-386, HA-R1, HA-R2, HA-R3, HA-R4, HA-R5 and the line ‘ED 47’, susceptible to all biotypes of the fungus. The total sample consisted of 237 parasite urediniospore isolates collected from infected leaves of sunflower plants. There were differentiated 34 biotypes of P. helianthi. The most virulent pathotype 777 was identified among isolates from the Tatsinsky, Morozovsky and Konstantinovsky districts of the region in 2023. The race with code number 700 was identified in almost all represented areas of the region and accounted for 52.7% of the studied sample of sunflower rust pathogen isolates. In the current work the racial composition of the pathogen in the Rostov region was studied for the first time. The study results have indicated the need to continue monitoring new biotypes of P. helianthi, as well as expand and accelerate work on the development of sunflower hybrids resistant to the predominant race with code 700 in the sample.

Published: July 2024

The current paper has presented the results of an analysis of promising winter barley lines and varieties developed by the FSBSI “Agricultural Research Center “Donskoy” to select valuable genotypes for breeding programs. The basis for the analysis of the studied samples was the methodology for a comprehensive estimation of breeding results, developed by the researchers from the FSBSI “ARC “Donskoy” and the FSBEI HE DSTU. The study was conducted at the FSBSI “Agricultural Research Center “Donskoy” in 2021–2023. Sowing was carried out in 6-fold repetition, the local variety ‘Timofey’ was taken as a standard. There have been analyzed 14 economically valuable traits, identified as the most significant according to the methodology for a comprehensive estimation of barley breeding identifiers. The purpose of the current study was to conduct a comparative estimation of breeding winter barley lines according to the most significant traits for the selection of promising samples. The studied varieties and lines were ranked according to a set of traits and properties into three groups, such as promising, not very promising, and unpromising. The promising group included the new varieties ‘Step’ and ‘Alabai’, sent to the State study in 2, 5, 6 and 8 regions of the Russian Federation in 2022 and 2023, respectively, as well as the lines ‘Parallelum 2015’, ‘Parallelum 2136’, ‘Pallidum 2100’ and ‘Bezosty 2074’, characterized by high indicators of a complex of basic economically valuable characteristics and properties. These samples are being planned to send to the State Commission of the Russian Federation for Testing and Protection of Breeding Achievements.

Authors: Tarchokov Kh. Sh. , Mataeva O. Kh. , Bzhinaev F. Kh. , Berbekova N. V.
Published: July 2024

The relevance of the current study is due to the fact that global warming in the south of Russia has significantly moved forward the onset of the hot period, especially in areas of risky farming. Sowing at the previously recommended scientifically based optimal time no longer guarantees stable yields of maize. Based on this, the purpose of the study was to determine the effect of the sowing time of new promising maize hybrids of our own breeding on productivity and yield structure elements in the steppe part of Kabardino-Balkaria. The study was carried out in field trials on the field of the research and production site of the Institute of Agriculture of the KBRC of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2019–2021. In general, during the years of study, weather conditions were typical for the steppe area of the KBR. As a result, there was determined that the optimal sowing time for maize hybrids was the second decade of April. When sowing at this time, there was identified productivity improvement and an increase in the values of yield elements. On the contrary, sowing in the third decade has shown a decrease in the values of these indicators in all studied samples. During the second sowing period, there was the greatest productivity decrease among the late-maturing hybrids ‘Karat SV’, ‘Terek’ and the hybrid population ‘Kabardinskaya 3812’ by 1.4; 1.5 and 1.8 t/ha, respectively. The middle-early hybrid ‘Maisky 260 MV’ has shown a smaller decrease by 0.7 t/ha. During the first sowing period, number of ears per 100 plants increased by 4–11 pieces. The ears were better grained with 5–60 pieces of the excess over the second period. The weight of one cob during the first sowing period ranged 105–120 g on average, which was 9–22 g more than the same indicator during the second sowing period.

Psycho-Thyroidism, a new disease concept, a case of reverse pathogenesis?
Authors: M Weisz George
Published: July 2024

Psychological symptoms following thyrotoxicosis are well documented in the medical literature, however, the link between the two pathologies is less well understood. Emotional instability, anxiety and frank psychosis resulting from overproduction of thyroxine was the accepted pathogenesis. Could a reverse mechanism also be acceptable? This case report would raise the possibility but provides no definite confirmation.
Considering the Cost-Effective Utilization of Exparel in Lieu of Patient-Controlled Analgesia
Authors: Rao Kavya
Published: July 2024

Patient-controlled anesthesia (PCA) is utilized to treat acute, chronic, labor, and postoperative pain in patients. The administration of PCA intravenously (IV), through an epidural or peripheral nerve catheter, or transdermally each allow the patient to have autonomy over their pain control. Although beneficial in regard to patient care and outcomes, the current regimen of PCA is not cost-effective. Unused medication, cost of Anesthesia team consults, equipment, and the price of frequently used PCA medications contribute a substantial cost to hospital systems. Moreover, patient outcomes with PCA have been shown to be equivalent to those with traditional pain medication dosing. As such, we investigated two anesthetic routines in post-operative cardiothoracic patients. In the novel group, we started to utilize Exparel™ (liposomal bupivacaine), which was instilled into the intercostal space at the conclusion of the surgical procedure. This Exparel™ receiving cohort did not receive PCA, and were instead managed as needed with narcotics in the post-operative period. Our prospective study with 10 patients, each undergoing a lobectomy, or surgical removal of a lobe of the lung, compared the outcomes in pain control and cost between Exparel™ and narcotic management and PCA. Our outcomes showed that the pain control was the same when controlling for the receiving arm. However, the cost of the PCA-receiving arm was substantially more. Given the pain control of the Exparel™-receiving arm is non-inferior, it should be considered an acceptable post-operative pain control option to PCA, given its decreased cost.
The Effects of Authoritarian Parenting Style on Black Teenage Males
Authors: S. Brown China
Published: July 2024

This paper explores the impact of authoritarian parenting styles on the mental health, social skills, and substance use of adolescent black males. Through a review of existing literature, it delves into the detrimental effects of authoritarian parenting, emphasizing its link to reduced self-confidence, heightened signs of depression, and heightened vulnerability to substance use among black teenagers. Using Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory and Empowerment Theory, the study contextualizes the issue within broader environmental and empowerment frameworks, emphasizing the need for culturally sensitive interventions. While state and federal policies, such as Medicaid and Mental Health Parity Acts, indirectly address mental health disparities, gaps remain in addressing the specific challenges faced by black adolescent males who have been subjected to authoritarian parenting. Evidence-based interventions like Parent- Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Multisystemic Therapy (MST), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offer promising avenues for promoting positive parenting practices and addressing the multifaceted needs of this population. Further research and culturally tailored interventions are needed to address the unique challenges faced by black adolescent males within authoritarian parenting contexts.

The study aimed to enhance treatment outcomes for patients with portal hypertension through transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic bypass surgery. When there is a disruption in blood flow within the inferior vena cava system or hepatic veins, it results in increased pressure in the portal vein, leading to portal hypertension. This condition often causes varicose veins in the esophagus and stomach, which can lead to bleeding. In cases of liver cirrhosis decompensation, bleeding can be fatal in 80% of instances. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic bypass surgery involves creating an intrahepatic shunt using a stent graft (coated stent) to alleviate pressure in the portal vein. This procedure is a minimally invasive endovascular technique that shows promise, particularly in cases of liver cirrhosis complicated by recurrent bleeding, as it reduces the frequency of bleeding episodes.

Background. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted normal life and led to various mental health challenges such as adaptation disorders, depression, and anxiety. The increasing number of COVID-19 cases and fatalities underscores the significance of understanding the factors contributing to non-psychotic mental disorders. This study aims to investigate the sociodemographic characteristics of patients with such disorders resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Material and Methods. A total of 118 patients with non-psychotic mental disorders treated at the psychotherapeutic department of the Altai Regional Clinical Psychiatric Hospital named after Erdman Yuri Karlovich between 2022 and 2023 were examined. The patients were categorized into two groups: the main group (67 patients) with a history of COVID-19, and the control group (51 patients) without COVID-19 but affected by the pandemic as a psychotraumatic factor. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Statistica 12.0 program by StatSoft. Results. Analysis revealed that women were more vulnerable to non-psychotic mental disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to men. Key risk factors identified for the development of these disorders included living in rural areas, experiencing loneliness, lack of children, employment status, and being retired. Conclusions. Further exploration of the clinical and psychopathological features across diverse demographic groups is crucial for devising preventive and treatment strategies for non-psychotic mental disorders induced by COVID-19.

Introduction. The interaction and interdependence between phlebopathy and varicose veins in the lower extremities remain intriguing, not only for staging varicose veins but also for predicting disease progression. Multi-level anatomical changes in this pathology manifest differently in clinical symptoms, complicating risk and prognosis assessment for varicose veins. Objectives. Identify the most discussed and promising risk factors for the occurrence and progression of lower extremity varicose veins based on morphological human constitution types. Methods. Conducted an analysis of contemporary foreign and domestic literature on lower extremity venous diseases, constitutionalology, and human somatotyping. Gathered information from databases like PubMed, Elibrary, and Science Direct. Conclusion. Understanding the constitutional aspects of phlebopathy onset and development is crucial. Individual constitutional somatotypes can serve as predisposing and prognostic factors for phlebopathy and subsequent varicose veins. Addressing this issue can help identify at-risk groups, enhance prognostic capabilities, establish new early diagnostic criteria, and personalize preventive strategies.

Objectives. Investigate risk factors for rethrombosis in the early postoperative period following surgery for acute limb ischemia. Methods. Conducted a retrospective study at a single center involving 362 patients with arterial thrombosis or embolism-related acute limb ischemia. Diagnosed the condition using various methods, including echocardiography, hemostasis studies, duplex scanning, MSCT-angiography, and X-ray contrast angiography. Assessed the severity of limb ischemia based on the classification by I.I. Zatevakhin in 2002. Results. Thrombosis as an etiological factor significantly increases the likelihood of rethrombosis by 3.1 times (p=0.013). Acute ischemia in the lower extremities amplifies the risk of rethrombosis by 2.8 times compared to the upper extremity (p = 0.09). Moreover, with an escalation in the severity of ischemia, there is a corresponding rise in the incidence of rethrombosis (p<0.001). Specifically, the presence of third-degree ischemia elevates the odds of rethrombosis by 49.1 times (p<0.05) in comparison to first-degree ischemia, while second-degree ischemia escalates the likelihood by 38.6 times (p<0.05) relative to first-degree ischemia. Furthermore, risk factors such as disease duration, chronic heart failure, and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio demonstrate a notable impact on the occurrence of rethrombosis. Conclusion. Findings help predict adverse outcomes in blood flow restoration post-revascularization for acute limb ischemia patients.

The Emergence of China as a Cyber Superpower
Authors: Yudina Tamara N. , Yao Lindun
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the emergence of China as a cybernetic superpower and its foundations in the context of the characteristics of Chinese digitalization, the digital economy (“digital economy”), as well as the stages of its development. This process covers the period from 2014, when Xi Jinping announced the emergence of China as a cyber power, to the present. The process of the formation of China as a cyber superpower goes in parallel with the emergence of the PRC as an economic superpower. This means that the digital economy as an economy of a new technological order (or a new technological generation) can only develop effectively with the parallel effective development of the real sector of the economy, producing real and not virtual goods (goods and services), based on a new innovative model of economic management. This fundamental conclusion is the main result of our study. The cybernetic revolution, as well as economic globalization and global digitalization, as two parallel megatrends that give a cumulative effect, resulted in a post-industrial economy in the world, as well as initially the United States as a technological power. At the new stage of economic globalization and global digitalization, as well as the post-industrial economy, there is technological competition between the United States and China and even a technological war unleashed by the United States for technological leadership. Special attention in the article is paid to tectonic changes in the global digital economy, when the so-called. “artificial intelligence” is becoming a meaningful technology, the main way to achieve the country’s competitiveness. It is “artificial intelligence” that becomes the criterion for determining which country will become a de facto cyber leader, a superpower. The authors of the article consider the second result of their research to be scientific proof that China has sufficient potential to become a cyber superpower.
Information Technology and Chinese Characters
Authors: Zavyalova Olga I.
Published: July 2024

Already in ancient China, philologists started compiling the lists that comprised thousands of characters. The task of creating such lists for various purposes is still relevant in the epoch of information technology and high literacy rates. New words are regularly appearing in the Chinese language, both neologisms and loanwords. The authorities and the Chinese society as a whole show a growing interest in traditional culture and the classical texts of various periods. In modern publications, there are more and more elements from Ancient Chinese and its successor, the Classical written language Wenyan. Due to all these processes, the number of different characters in the present day texts is constantly increasing. New graphs are not created, however, they use those characters, which usually represented in the past or still represent this or that monosyllabic word or a morpheme in disyllabic and polysyllabic words. On the one hand, any characters can be entered on computers with the help of the official Romanized Hanyu Pinyin alphabet or even with the help of the voice input. Modern Chinese, especially the younger generation, not very often write texts by hand. As a result, there is a concern in the Chinese society that the same information technology, and in particular artificial intelligence, will eventually decrease the literacy level even of the educated generation. On the other hand, in the wave of the revival of traditional culture, Chinese intellectuals proposed to return those original variants of characters that were abolished in the People’s Republic of China in the 1950s and the 1960s.

Bocchus in Sallust: some considerations
Authors: Korolenkov Anton V.
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the image of the Mauretanian king Bocchus in Sallust’s Bellum Iugurthinum. At the beginning Bocchus is portrayed as a puppet of Jugurtha and his own advisers bribed by the Numidian king, but soon he begins to act quite independently, not being a reliable partner neither for the Romans nor for the Numidians. Sallust focuses on Bocchus’ endless doubts (whom to betray: Romans or Jugurtha) and on the changes of his own decisions, which, however, are not always followed by any real actions. The Roman author calls Bocchus a bаrbarus and accuses him of fides Punica, while there are no such accusations against Jugurtha. According to Sallust, kings often come into contradiction with themselves (Iug. 113. 1), but Bocchus remains completely true to his nature, since the essence of his character, as shown by Sallust, lies precisely in his contradictions, which are reflected in his endless hesitation and change of decisions.
Intolerance and Nationalism in Israeli Society: Manifestations, Causes and Role of Religion
Authors: Korochkina Victoria A.
Published: July 2024

In Israel, Jewish ethnic nationalism manifests itself primarily in relations with the Palestinians, the apex of which was attained with the mass killing of the civilian population in Gaza Strip in response to the Hamas attack on Israeli settlements bordering the enclave on October 7, 2023. This is combined with intolerance within the “Jewish sector” itself, which is complex and very heterogeneous. In the Jewish state, nationalism is closely linked to religion. Therefore, hypothetically, its secularization is possible subject to the transformation of ethnic nationalism into civic nationalism, that is, in the case of the transformation of Israel into a state of all its citizens. In the context of contrasting nationalism with globalization, its function is to protect against alien penetration into the national body with the aim of its physical and spiritual enslavement. Israel, represented by the conservative and (ultra)religious part of society that forms the political establishment, sets the achievement of nationalist, including those with a religious basis, goals above global values understood universally. Even if a number of measures taken by the state contributed to the unification of a significant part of the Jewish society, it hardly included 21% of the country's population – Israeli Arabs and 5% of the so-called “others”.
The Dniester Campaign of General Prince A. M. Golitsyn in 1769 and Russia’s Strategy Towards the Principality of Moldavia in the Initial Period of the Russian-Turkish War of 1768–1774
Authors: Kashirin Vasiliy B.
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the little-studied problems of the history of the Russo-Turkish War of 1768–1774 – the military and political strategy of the top leadership of the Russian Empire and the commander-in-Chief of the 1st Army, General-in-Chief Prince A. M. Golitsyn towards the Principality of Moldavia in the initial period of the conflict, during the campaign of 1769. Flaws in the organization of strategic planning on the Russian side, the absence of a pre-developed war plan, deficiencies in the supply system of troops and the inability to use an artillery siege park significantly limited the effectiveness of Golitsyn’s operations on the upper Dniester, which was reflected in two unsuccessful attempts by the Russian army to take the fortress of Khotyn in April and July 1769. For political and psychological reasons, this undermined Golitsyn’s credibility at the imperial court and led to his removal from the post of commander-in-chief, however, it was Golitsyn’s pragmatic defensive strategy that allowed him to defeat the main forces of the Ottoman army in late August – early September 1769 and force them to retreat from most of the territory of Moldova. Simultaneously with the conduct of military operations, A. M. Golitsyn and the commander of the vanguard corps of the 1st Army, Major General Prince A. A. Prozorovsky actively engaged, largely on their own initiative, in establishing secret intelligence and political contacts with representatives of the highest boyars and clergy of Moldova. Their success in this activity, as well as the recruitment of Arnaut formations from local natives to the Russian service, largely paved the way for the rapid and successful occupation of most of Moldavia by Russian troops in the autumn of 1769.
The article is based on previously little-known archival material, mostly on the official correspondence of the Russian command.
White Military Formations in Poland and an Attempt to Disrupt the Genoa Conference in 1922
Authors: Ganin Andrey V.
Published: July 2024

The article examines the preparation of anti-Soviet uprisings by the leaders of the white emigration in Poland on the eve of the Genoa Conference of 1922 on the basis of documents from Russian and foreign archives, including the archives of the special services. The purpose of the uprisings was to disrupt the conference and undermine the authority of the Soviet government. The Belarusian lands, which were ceded to Poland under the Riga Peace Treaty of 1921, became a springboard for the deployment of anti-Bolshevik forces. There, under the guise of teams of loggers, white detachments were concentrated. A prominent role in the preparation of the operation was played by General V. M. Novikov, an alleged Soviet agent. These plans were thwarted as a result of the expulsion of several leaders of the white military emigration from the country by the Polish authorities.

Epidigmatics of international lexemes пилот/рilot in comparative aspect (on the material of slavic languages)
Authors: Shkapenko Tatyana M. , Dudurich Olga V.
Published: July 2024

The paper аnalyses the process of development of polysemy of international lexemes pilot/пилот on the material of Polish and Russian languages. On the basis of the analysis of word definitions in lexicographic sources of different historical periods their topological structures are characterised. Comparison of lexemes’ epidigmatics in synchronic and diachronic perspective becomes the basis for identifying universal and linguistically specific features in their semantic evolution. A common tendency for the two Slavic languages is the emergence of new lexical-semantic variants as a result of specialisation of the primary meaning. Under the influence of extralinguistic factors, they begin to denote varieties of professions, depending on the vehicle being driven. The peculiarities of the development of the semantics of the word pilot in Polish include the emergence of meanings based on the metaphorical transfer from human to device («autopilot» and «remote control»), as well as on the transfer from the field of transport means driving to the cultural and entertainment sphere («tour guide»). Differences in the development of the semantics of lexemes are also characteristic for the current stage of their evolution under the influence of the processes of Anglobalisation. In Polish, the lexeme pilot starts to be used in the sense of video announcement in parallel with the autochthonous lexeme zwiastun; in Russian, the Anglo-semantism trailer functions in this sense. The innovative meaning of the lexeme pilot «experimental testing to reveal the effectiveness of an object» is transferred from English in the form of similar combinations пилотный проект and projekt pilotażowy, which in Polish functions simultaneously with the polonised variant wdrożenie pilotażowe.
Crime: criminal law concept
Authors: Turyshev Alexander A.
Published: July 2024

The author proposes to consider a crime through the construction of a criminal law concept, as an image that includes all possible variations of its manifestation. For this purpose, a process of normalization of the concept has been carried out, in particular, the key feature “activity” has been added and insignificant features have been excluded: guilty and punishability. As a result, an axiomatic concept of a crime is obtained, the volume of which corresponds to objective reality. In addition, the article contains six arguments for the exclusion of signs of guilty and punishability. The concept of “crime”, after establishing a connection with other verified concepts, will form the basis for the development of a new criminal law concept.

Purpose of the work: analysis of legal means of countering socially dangerous acts committed by members of online youth communities with the rhetoric of political hostility; identifying the degree of their effectiveness to reduce their activity and identifying directions for increasing the effectiveness of legislation, the practice of its application and the prevention of extremist and terrorist acts among participants in youth online communities with the rhetoric of political hostility.
Essence and significance of conviction of deceased Nazi’s for crimes not subject to statutory limitations
Authors: Kamenetsky Yuri F.
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the prerequisites of improving criminal procedure legislation in the Republic of Belarus which establishes the order of convicting deceased Nazi’s for crimes to which statutory limitations are not applicable. Based on the analyses of international and national legislation, the practice of investigating criminal cases of rehabilitation of Nazism and genocide of the Belarusian people during the Great Patriotic War the conclusion is drawn about the advisability of the court procedure for establishing guilt or innocence of persons accused of crimes against peace and humanity as well as war crimes to which statutory limitations are not applicable.
The idea is supported that the efficiency of adversariality in criminal procedure regarding deceased Nazi criminals is based on the balance of the legal status of the defense (a representative of the deceased person, his defense lawyer) and the prosecution (victims and their representatives, a public prosecutor) as well as on the completeness, objectiveness and comprehensiveness of the activities of the preliminary investigation agencies.
A decisive role of the court verdict in establishing legally significant facts of guilt or innocence of a deceased accused of committing crimes to which statutory limitations are not applicable is substantiated.
