Published: December 2020

In the article, the process of water purification mainly from suspended particles of clay mineral saponite is considered. Those particles are formed during the process of diamond mining in the quarry water of M.V. Lomonosov Mining and Processing Plant owned by PJSC «Severalmaz». The scheme of the existing technology of sedimentation of suspended particles using the acoustic method is shown. Using the granulometry method the size of suspended particles in free volume was studied, and the sedimentation rate of suspended substances was calculated using Stokes' formula. The mineral composition of suspended particles in the quarry water is determined using Х-ray phase analysis. Calculations of the sedimentation rates of suspended particles are given for aluminum sulfate – traditionally used in water clarification – and for calcium-aluminosilicate reagent developed when taking into account the mineral composition. The results of measurements of pH of the clarified water, the content of residual aluminum, and the indicator of turbidity of the water are shown

THE IMPORTANCE OF CENTRAL ASIA IN CHINA’S FOREIGN POLICY AND BEIJING’S SOFT POWER INSTRUMENTS
Authors: Berdiyev Ahmet , Can Nurettin
Published: December 2020

Throughout history, Central Asia was seen as a vital region by the great powers that struggled for the influence in this region in the past. After the breakdown of the Soviet Union, new independent states have emerged in Central Asia. This article provides an analysis of China’s implementation of foreign policy towards Central Asian states through soft power. China recently implemented the idea of soft power as a crucial foreign policy instrument. The study focuses on the fact that soft diplomacy can be essential in forming an attractive image of China in the international arena. Furthermore, it argues that China’s ambition to become more authoritative in the region is associated with the activation of efforts in its soft power policy. Employment of soft power is entirely determined by China’s national interests. It is in China’s national interests to establish a secure and peaceful climate for its economic advance, to adjust its vast and growing energy needs, and to curtail the domination of other powerful actors. Thus, this article offers an analysis of China’s soft power and its application within the Central Asian region in pursuit of its foreign policy tasks. The paper aims to solve the following problem: What is China’s soft power and how does it use it in the Central Asian states? To address the problem, we compare Chinese soft power to the policy of other regional actors. The goal is to study China’s foreign policy in Central Asia, with the purpose of highlighting Chinese political strategy in the region. The article begins with the discussion of China’s foreign policy chief aims and objectives to understand the meaning of good neighborhood diplomacy, which forms the basis of China’s soft power diplomacy in Central Asia.
ISSUES OF CONTINUITY AND A NEW COURSE IN UZBEKISTAN’S POLITICAL PROCESS
Authors: Butaev Usmon
Published: December 2020

This article analyzes the problem of continuity and the new course in the policy of the second president of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev. It demonstrates that the new course is certainly not a problem-free political process. Continuity and the new course entail dialectical issues, i.e., what should be adopted from the previous regime, what should be rejected, and what new proposals can be made. President Karimov had faced this question during the transition from the Soviet regime to an independent state. President Mirziyoyev encountered this challenge in an entirely different situation: the transition period is nearing completion and the new course is being determined. The complexity and somewhat contradictory nature of the formation and implementation of the new course is associated with a number of internal and external circumstances. Ultimately, the content and success of the new course will depend on the transformation of the type of the state itself and the mentality of the people.
ISAF WITHDRAWAL AND AN UPSURGE OF RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM IN AFGHANISTAN
Authors: Aytzhanova Dinara , Aytzhanov Daniyar
Published: December 2020

An upsurge of religious extremism and terrorism in Afghanistan that followed the 2014 withdrawal of the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) confirmed the pessimistic forecasts for the country’s future: a far greater number of terrorist attacks and their victims among non-combatants across the country was the most obvious repercussion. The civil war continued unabated, while the negative additional factors—the Taliban that had grown much stronger, as well as the activation of ISIS militants, who had come from Iraq and Syria to continue fighting—contributed to its further exacerbation. All sorts of extremist religious groups in Afghanistan consolidated their positions and even created an unwelcome possibility of their transit to the Central Asian countries. The authors have clearly demonstrated that there is a direct interdependence between the presence of ISAF under U.S. command and the degree of violence of the Taliban, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant—Khorasan Chapter, and Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan operating in Afghanistan. They have also analyzed the impact of the statement made by the U.S. regarding the signed agreement with the Taliban that envisaged the removal of U.S. troops from the country in the next fourteen months and the release of Taliban prisoners. Since the Government of Afghanistan had been left in the cold, many doubted that the agreement would be fully realized any time soon. An analysis of the events that followed demonstrated that the Taliban would not stick to its part of the agreement, while the White House treated the document as an election promise (formally) fulfilled. There are enough extremist organizations (i.e., ISIS) that operate in the provinces and, free from obligations and in pursuit of their own aims, might interfere in the attempts to fulfill the agreement in its optimistic version. An assessment of certain processes suggests that the threats coming from ISIS are somewhat overestimated. The studies are based on the following methods: comparative analysis of relevant literature, statistical analysis of the dynamics of time series to identify the developing trends of terrorist activities of religious extremists in Afghanistan.

Published: December 2020

Brain drain, a well-known phenomenon, stirs up concerns in the Republic of Kazakhstan, which is facing a consistently growing outflow of educated young people. The authors have analyzed the factors and causes of migration, its impact on the country’s present and future, the educational system, its current condition and its role in the current migration sentiments. The authors have compared and analyzed the questionnaires filled out by specialists who left the country during the years of independence and arrived at a certain hypothesis checked by polling school graduates and in-depth interviews with experts who study the problem and the Kazakhstani researchers working abroad. By way of conclusion the authors suggested that intellectual migration may be partly halted by establishing scientific centers and taking economic, social, scientific and professional measures designed to support and encourage the country’s intellectual community.
Rural Wine and Food Tourism for Cultural Sustainability
Authors: Robinson Danielle
Published: December 2020

This conceptual article explores the relationships between culture, sustainability, and rural tourism. The development of food and wine tourism and its role in cultural sustainability is given special consideration. Soini and Dessein's three-part, interdisciplinary conceptual framework
for culture in, for, and as sustainability is presented as a means to understand the relationships between culture and sustainability. When applied to rural tourism, the framework reveals that rural tourism can support cultural sustainability in all three ways described:
culture in sustainability, where tourism is a means to conserve tangible and intangible cultural capital and the diversity of cultural expressions; culture for sustainability, where tourism is a resource for rural development and a way to shape development processes; and ultimately,
culture as sustainability, where tourism is a vehicle to facilitate a fundamental paradigm shift towards a shared "culture of sustainability." Illustrative case examples are discussed. Culture in, for, and as sustainability offers a framework for researchers and
developers to critically analyze what is being sustained through tourism and why. Further research considering the transformative potential of rural wine and food tourism to support cultural sustainability is suggested.
Non-Economic Impact of Craft Brewery Visitors In British Columbia: A Quantitative Analysis
Authors: Bachman Jarrett R. , Hull John S. , Marlowe Byron
Published: December 2020

The number of craft breweries in British Columbia has grown significantly in recent years, numbering over 140 in 2017. Very little is known about the effects of the craft brewery industry in British Columbia, specifically as it relates to impacts not related to brewery revenue and job
creation. Beyond British Columbia, the craft beer industry has not empirically examined nonrevenue impacts in a manner that reflects the global growth of the sector. Tourism experiences, such as those offered by craft breweries, are becoming increasingly important for resilience and sustainable
growth and success of destinations. The goal of this research was to determine who visitors to craft breweries are, how tourist and resident patrons differ, and what effects craft breweries have on tourists who visit breweries. A 55-item survey was distributed at 11 craft breweries in three
regions in British Columbia during the summer of 2017. Results found differences between tourist and resident patrons in selfimage congruency, age, and travel party size, but no difference in gender, education, or household income. From a tourism standpoint, it was found that memories have
a significant, positive impact on loyalty regarding the brewery and the destination. For tourists, strong connections were found between social involvement and both authenticity and place attachment for those who were more socially involved in craft beer. Comparisons to previous research in
the wine industry provide additional commentary. Implications for craft breweries, destinations, and future research in this area are discussed.

Published: December 2020

Haemogregarines were found in 23 (2.8%) out of 820 eel, Anguilla anguilla (L.) individuals caught in the Szczecin Lagoon and lakes Dąbie, Siecino, Drawsko, and Lipiany (north-western Poland). Different developmental stages were present predominantly in the leukocytes and extracellularly; more seldom, they occurred also in the peripheral blood erythrocytes, in the liver, spleen, and kidney. Merogony involving different stages with nuclear chromatin aggregated into 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 and more groups within a cell was followed. During the subsequent differentiation, chromatin shifted to the cell periphery and merozoites (up to 32 and more), attached to the residual body, were formed by separation. The released merozoites were scattered between cells. During gamogony, gamont-resembling forms were formed as a stage terminating development in the fish host.

Stakeholders and their networks play prominent roles in developing the agricultural sector. For instance, the economic, social, and environmental indicators of farms are sustained by the involvement of stakeholders and other relevant parties. Therefore, exploring the importance and roles of actors has become strategic and vital to recognize. This research aims to determine the strategic stakeholders' typology and mapping using their network analyses on integrated crops-livestock farming systems in West New Guinea. The study was carried out in Manokwari using the focus group discussion on twenty various represented individuals, groups, and mass institutions. The queries discussed were based on background, resources delivery, inter-connectivity amongst actors, intervention, and innovation. The result showed that the stakeholders in mixed crop-livestock are dominated by individuals' that privately manage the farms officially in accordance with the laws. The result also showed that the farming systems in West New Guinea, experience real threats which need to be lowered to mitigate the turn-back effect. The top five shared resources are access, satisfaction, power, knowledge, and time allocation. These resources tend to stay longer to sustain the strong needs of the farms, which are dominated by positive similarity with varying ranges of correlation ranging from negative, neutral to positive. This is because the stakeholders are reluctant to deliver the intervention and innovation, therefore, those with low interest and power need to be promoted to high interest and power by using aids, guidance, and services from each actor in the mixed crop-livestock farms business.

Published: December 2020

Aims: This research was carried out in order to guide farmers and researchers by determining the effect of high plant densities on forage yield of some silage maize genotypes in twin row planting pattern in Eastern Mediterranean ecological conditions.Methods and Results: In this study, we evaluated the responses of three silage maize genotypes (DKC 6589, Cadiz and Bolson) to high plant densities (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 plant m-2) in twin row planting pattern (50:20 cm). Research results showed that forage and hay yields tended to increase with increasing plant densities up to 14 plants m-2, but decreased in 15 plants m-2 density. The maximum yields were obtained at 14 plants m-2 in twin row planting pattern. It was determined that the yields of DKC 6589 and Cadiz genotypes were higher than Bolson. It was concluded that with the combination of appropriate genotype and plant density, silage yield can be obtained over 7 tons per hectare.Conclusions: Due to the improvement of new maize genotypes continually, it is important to determine the responses of new varieties to agronomic practices. It is important to determine suitable plant densities in twin row planting pattern, which is an alternative practices in maize farming. The results of this study indicated that silage maize can be planted in high densities in twin row planting pattern according to the traditional 70 cm single row planting method and the 14 plants m-2 density was the most suitable planting density in twin row planting pattern.Significance and Impact of the Study: The study revealed the effect of high plant densities in twin row planting, which is an alternative approach in silage maize production, and has revealed practical data for the Mediterranean climate zone.

Amaç: Bu çalışma, NaCl ile muamele edilen mısır tohumlarının tuzlu topraklarda fide gelişimini belirlenmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem ve Bulgular: Çalışmada NaCl’nin farklı dozları (0 g l-1, 5 g l-1 ve 10 g l-1 NaCl) ile farklı sürelerde (0, 12 ve 24 saat sürelerle) muamele edilen farklı iki mısır çeşidinin (Pasha ve P-31A34) farklı düzeylerde tuz içeren (kontrol, 6 dS m-1 ve 12 dS m-1) topraklarda fide gelişimi ile ilgili özellikler incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda çeşitlerin toprak tuzluluğuna tepkisinin farklı olduğu, toprak tuzluluğundaki artışa bağlı olarak bitki boyu sap yaşağırlığı, sap kuru ağırlığı, kök yaş ağırlı, kök kuru ağırlığı, kök/sap oranı ve tuz tolerans indeksi olumsuz etkilenmiş, tohumların ekim öncesinde 5 g l-1 NaCl ile muamele edilmesinin incelenen özellikler üzerinde olumlu etki yaptığı belirlenmiştir. Genel Yorum: Çalışma sonucunda incelenen özellikler yönünden çeşitler arasında farklılıklar olduğu, toprak tuzluluğundaki artışa bağlı olarak fide özelliklerinin olumsuz etkilendiği, tohumun 5 g l-1NaCl ile muamele edilmesinin fide gelişimi üzerine olumlu etki yaptığı belirlenmiş olup tuzluluk problemi olan topraklarda çeşit seçiminin önemli olduğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışmanın Önemi ve Etkisi: Elde edilen sonuçlar toprak tuzluğundaki artıştan bitki gelişiminin olumsuz etkilendiğini, çeşitlerin toprak tuzluluğuna toleranslarının farklılık gösterdiğini, özellikle tuz problemi olan topraklarda çeşit seçimine dikkat edilmesi gerektiğini ortaya koymuştur.
IZAS, RABIZAS Y COLIPOTERRAS: UN ÀLBUM FURTIU
Authors: Fontcuberta Joan
Published: December 2020

This essay examines the work of Joan Colom, a Catalan photographer who has come to receive a welter of honors, including the National Prize in Photography, but whose career has been anything but easy and uninterrupted. Colom’s fame derives largely from Izas, rabizas y colipoterras, a photo-book produced in collaboration with Camilo José Cela that focuses on the prostitutes of the Barri Xino of Barcelona and that quickly acquired a cult status among members of the “divine left” critical of Franco’s morally smug regime. Addressing tensions between amateurism and professionalism, art and documentation, the studio and the street, and the image and the word, Fontcuberta presents Colom’s work as a radiography in which the camera serves as an instrument of political critique and the vibrancy and sordidness of street life come to the fore. Inimitable as the book is, it nonetheless allows for productive comparisons with more recent, feminist inflected work on streets, streetwalkers, and sex workers from beyond Barcelona: Susan Meiselas’s Carnival Strippers; Elisabeth B’s Das ist ja zum Peepen; Merry Alpern’s Dirty Windows, and Erika Langley’s The Lusty Lady.
MODELLING IT BRAND VALUES SUPPLIED BY CONSULTANCY SERVICE COMPANIES: EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FOR DIFFERENCES
Authors: Alcaide Ángeles , Guadalajara Natividad , De La Poza Elena
Published: December 2020

Brands are the most precious intangible companies’ assets. Company managers need to know their brand value and the aspects determining it. As no transparent brands market exists, the main objective of this study was to model brand values that the world’s main valuation consultants publish. The obtained results indicate that 80% of the value of these brands is accounted for by both the net results of the companies that own brands and their value on the Stock Exchange. These results allow brand values to be estimated using quantitative and objective information by simple methods, unlike those used by valuation consultants. Moreover, one temporal analysis and another for different industries confer these outcomes consistency.
L'autorité du juge à l'épreuve (du refus) de son pouvoir d'interprétation
Authors: Malhière Fanny
Published: December 2020

Cette contribution a pour objet de montrer la relation ambivalente entre l'autorité du juge et son pouvoir d'interprétation. Bien qu'inhérent à la fonction de juger, le pouvoir d'interpréter la loi a pendant longtemps été dénié au juge français. La construction de son autorité s'est d'abord construite sur une conception oraculaire de son interprétation. Aujourd'hui, cette conception est remise en cause au profit d'une approche légitimante qui implique d'enrichir la motivation des décisions pour en renforcer l'autorité persuasive.
Les modèles de raisonnement probatoire : les inférences mathématiques face à la mise en récit
Authors: Leclerc Olivier , Vergès Etienne
Published: December 2020

Élément central de l'office du juge, le raisonnement probatoire est observé depuis plusieurs décennies par les chercheurs. Dans le monde académique, deux modèles scientifiques s'affrontent pour comprendre et décrire comment les acteurs du procès raisonnent avec les preuves pour trancher les litiges qui leur sont soumis. Les « modèles compteurs » supposent que les juges et les jurés évaluent et combinent les preuves de façon arithmétique. Le « story model » soutient qu'ils assemblent les preuves pour en faire des histoires dont ils apprécient la crédibilité. Cet article explicite et discute ces modèles en les confrontant à des procès réels.
Juger à l'épreuve de la violence
Authors: Millet Alexandre
Published: December 2020

Au-delà de la justice qui découle de l'application de la loi, l'acte de juger produit un sentiment de justice au travers de l'interprétation que le juge donne au nexus de la violence formée au procès : violence des actes à juger, violence de la sentence commandée par l'acte de juger, violence sociale que le procès peut apaiser ou au contraire réveiller. La prudence du juge consiste dans cette disposition herméneutique à l'égard du nexus de la violence. L'article commence par retracer les étapes d'une réflexion sur l'oralité, avant d'avancer des propositions sur l'herméneutique de la violence.
De la « classe institutionnelle » au dispositif institutionnel. Note sur l’histoire de la sociopsychanalyse
Authors: Prades Jean-Luc
Published: December 2020

Ce texte traite de l’évolution de la pratique d’intervention de la sociopsychanalyse. Il présente d’abord une première période (1970-1980), celle de la « classe institutionnelle », que la sp a appelé le volet 1, en essayant de montrer sur quoi cette pratique s’appuyait aux plans théorique et historique. Le passage au volet 2, à partir du début des années 1980, se traduira par une intervention sur l’ensemble de l’institution : elle fera l’objet de la deuxième partie de cet article où seront décrits le dispositif institutionnel adopté depuis lors et les présupposés théoriques nouveaux ayant conduit à cette évolution. La troisième et dernière partie de ce texte donnera des indications sur les évolutions actuelles en prenant appui sur les interventions récentes.
Les spécificités de l’intervention sociopsychanalytique dans la formation en Argentine
Authors: Acevedo Marie-José
Published: December 2020

La formation, l’intervention et la recherche exigent du clinicien d’orientation psychosociologique une particulière attention aux singularités du terrain où il prétend déployer ses instruments. Cet état des lieux à propos des trames institutionnelles, et de leurs effets au niveau des groupes concernés, demande une analyse spécialement fine de la part des praticiens lorsqu’il s’agit de mettre en œuvre des dispositifs créés dans d’autres contextes socioculturels, et cela tout en restant fidèles à la perspective épistémologique et théorique originelle aussi bien qu’aux objectifs visés. Ce texte fait part des adaptations menées par les groupes des reguladores argentins formés et dirigés dans ce pays par l’auteure de l’article, qui décrit et essaie de justifier ici les démarches réalisées dans le champ de l’éducation nationale de son pays dans le but d’assurer les conditions nécessaires au développement des dispositifs sociopsychanalytiques et à leur succès.

Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:

In 2018, cases of inflammation were reported after intravitreal aflibercept (IVA), which resulted in switches to intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR). The authors' purpose was to evaluate outcomes after switching from IVA to IVR in diabetic macular edema (DME).

PATIENTS AND METHODS:

Retrospective cohort study. Eyes switched from IVA to IVR for treating DME were included. Data were gathered from three visits before to three visits post-switch. Outcome measures included central subfoveal thickness (CFT) and Snellen visual acuity (VA).

RESULTS:

There was a statistically significant increase in CFT at the first visit (325 µm ± 234 µm;
P
= .006) compared to the switch visit, but no difference later visits (268 µm ± 103 µm;
P
= .32; 284 µm ± 118 µm;
P
= .11; n = 54). There was no statistically significant change in mean logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution VA between the switch and later visits (0.43 ± 0.38,
P
= .95; 0.38 ± 0.30,
P
= .12; 0.41 ± 0.37,
P
= .69).

CONCLUSIONS:

The authors observed transient worsening of macular edema in eyes treated for DME when switched from aflibercept to ranibizumab.

Anti-Retinal Antibodies in Vitamin A Deficiency
Authors: Ellis Michael P. , Chang Melinda Y. , Yiu Glenn
Published: December 2020

Vitamin A is an important component of the visual cycle, and its deficiency causes a retinal degeneration that may be reversed with retinol supplementation. Here, the authors present a patient with vitamin A deficiency and rod-mediated retinopathy who was found to have multiple anti-retinal antibodies that gradually dissipated after vitamin A supplementation. This interesting case suggests the possibility that the photoreceptor degeneration induced by vitamin A deficiency may lead to transient immune exposure to retinal antigens and development of anti-retinal antibodies.

A Metacognition Based 8 Pillars Mindfulness Model and Training Strategies
Authors: Drigas Athanasios , Mitsea Eleni
Published: December 2020

Oxidative stress, mental and mood disorders, premature ageing, cognitive impairments, learning disabilities are just some of the emerging threats of the 21st century. The next generation of educators, students, business leaders, employees, therapists, and parents are required to adapt in the era of rapid change and climate change developing new skills as well as adopting daily sustainable habits. An increasing number of studies are revealing the positive effects of mindfulness training in all dimensions of human existence bodily, emotionally, mentally, spiritually. Nevertheless, there is a research gap regarding the pillars of mindfulness. The present work proposes a mindfulness model based on the potential principles and the mechanisms of metacognition. Adopting a holistic self-development view, we present the fundamental pillars of mindfulness as well as their underlying operations. Each pillar is framed by a number of techniques that help us to cultivate certain metacognitive abilities and qualities, leading us gradually to the higher levels of self-organization, intelligence and consciousness. We highlight the positive effects of mindfulness training on anti-ageing, stress reduction, neuroplasticity, brain rewiring, hormonal homeostasis.
