EVROCENTRIZAM I RECEPCIJA NEMAČKIH PISACA AZIJSKOG POREKLA U SRBIJI
Authors:   University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Philosophy, Serbia, Zobenica Nikolina N.
Published: November 2024

Eurocentrism is a phenomenon in existence for hundreds of years already, yet it has become a subject of criticism only recently, mostly in context of orientalism and postcolonial studies. The aims of this paper are following: 1) to determine if works of German authors with Asian background display elements of eurocentrism; 2) to determine to which extent is Serbia eurocentric in its reception of those works. Based on an overview of literature (in May 2024) and applying the methods of classification, description and analysis, the scope of their reception in Serbia has been determined, as well as the common denominators in text choice. The preliminary results have shown that the reception of the German authors with Asian background is mostly scarce: only few translations and original works are available (four of sixteen authors both in German and in Serbian, two in Serbian, and two in German only) and scholarly papers on their texts are almost non-existеnt. The content of the chosen works is frequently political – autobiographical novels help readers to get familiar with their life stories in context of challenging political circumstances in their countries of origin, maintaining the negative notion of the East and thus contributing to eurocentric point of view. The other group of authors write against eurocentrism, and several of their books are available in Serbia: a fairy tale book by Schami (German), a novel on Dschinghis Khan by Galsan and works by Yoko Tawada (Serbian). Although the preliminary research on the reception of migration literature in Serbia is far from complete, it mirrors both tendencies in German-Asian literature: validation and criticism of eurocentrism. In conclusion, we should read, translate and discuss more of their books, in order to overcome the dark side of eurocentrism, and to contribute to building a global world based on mutual understanding, respect and trust, and not on hegemony.

Il contributo propone l’analisi delle frasi scisse in lingua italiana e serba. La frase scissa rappresenta una costruzione marcata che risulta dalla suddivisione di una frase semplice in due parti. La prima parte, con il verbo essere, isola l’elemento enfatizzato, la seconda contiene quello noto. Essendo l’argomento relativamente nuovo sia negli studi serbi che italiani, l’obiettivo della ricerca è analizzare l’aspetto traduttivo di questa struttura marcata. Abbiamo preso in considerazione le caratteristiche generali delle frasi scisse in serbo e italiano. Attraverso esempi selezionati da diversi romanzi serbi tradotti in italiano, abbiamo condotto un’analisi contrastiva delle tecniche e delle soluzioni nella traduzione delle frasi scisse in italiano. Con l’intento di esaminare le sfide e le limitazioni che emergono nella traduzione di questa struttura sintattica marcata, abbiamo esaminato le soluzioni e le tecniche di traduzione con cui le frasi scisse vengono tradotte. I risultati indicano un alto potenziale pragmatico di questa costruzione sintattica, soprattutto nell’applicazione della tecnica di trasposizione.

Palm oil plantations in Eastern Aceh face a challenge: an excess of underutilized palm frond waste, creating environmental and economic burdens. To address this, a study explored empowering local communities to transform this waste into valuable handicrafts, promoting a green economic model. Despite the economic benefits of the palm oil industry, high unemployment persists, especially among the youth in palm-producing areas, with little awareness of the potential in palm frond waste. An apprenticeship program was implemented, providing hands-on training in crafting products like plates, handbags, and prayer mats. This training likely increased participants' confidence and curiosity. By equipping participants with skills before explaining the program’s aim of waste-to-wealth transformation, a strong foundation was laid. The study highlighted participants' enthusiasm and success in producing handicrafts post-training. This community-led approach, focused initially on skill development, shows potential for green economic transformation in Eastern Aceh, reducing waste and creating new income streams, potentially aligning with the region's Halal-tourism sector.

Authors: Munip Al
Published: November 2024

Science has specific components, such as objects, statements, propositions, and characteristics. These four aspects are the focus of three philosophical foundations: ontology, epistemology, and axiology. This article is written to discuss science from a philosophical perspective, namely ontology, epistemology, and axiology. In this article, the author uses the literature study method by reviewing various books and other scholarly works relevant to the topic discussed. From the analysis, it can be concluded that ontology focuses on the nature of "being." In ontological studies, science aims to prove and examine the existence of a particular knowledge. Epistemology addresses the foundation of knowledge, including its sources, characteristics, truth, and methods of acquisition. From the epistemological perspective, the discussion of science centers on the sources and methods used by scientists to develop knowledge. Axiology deals with the relationship between science and values, evaluating the appropriateness of developing certain knowledge based on existing values.

This research is a literature research by taking a qualitative-analytical approach. It can be concluded that the hadith text in question meets the category of saheeh hadith because the sanad is connected to the Prophet and the narrators are considered positive. As for the meaning and meaning of the hadith, it is not a proof of the legality of harsh treatment of children, but is understood as a way to educate and discipline children in matters of prayer. The word "spanking" can also be understood majazi, namely with all kinds of forms of discipline for children even without physical action.

Published: November 2024

Endometrial cancer is the most common malignancy of the female reproductive system, with increasing incidence rates. While pelvic lymph node metastases occur in approximately 21% of cases, cutaneous metastases are rare, representing only 0.8% of instances. This case report describes a 40-year-old female patient with a soft tissue tumor in the right thigh, initially suspected of having metastatic endometrial carcinoma. The patient had a history of dysmenorrhea and hypermenorrhea, and presented with a progressively enlarging lesion. Imaging revealed a hypoechoic mass with vascular characteristics, leading to an incisional biopsy. Pathological analysis indicated malignant neoplastic tissue suggestive of genitourinary origin, likely endometrial. This case underscores the rarity of cutaneous metastases from endometrial adenocarcinoma and highlights the importance of considering internal malignancies in patients with unusual skin lesions.

Background: Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) is a major healthcare burden and is classified as healthcare-associated (HA-MRSA) and community-associated (CA-MRSA). While HA-MRSA is clinically feared, CA-MRSA is often considered less pathogenic. This case report highlights the serious course of illness due to CA-MRSA infection and provides a treatment strategy for the management of such cases. Case description: A 41-year-old male presented with fever and breathlessness for five days. Upon admission, he was provided empirical treatment for atypical infections and vasopressor support for hypotension. His condition deteriorated, necessitating ventilator support. Although the initial tracheal Bio Fire test indicated MRSA, his clinical manifestations did not match MRSA pneumonia symptoms; however, CA-MRSA was confirmed within 12 h. Skin legions developed within 16 h and progressed gradually from ecchymosis, petechial, and palpable purpura to bullous lesions over 72 h. The antibiotic regimen was modified and optimized with the addition of Clindamycin, Vancomycin, and Meropenem–Colistin. Owing to high IL-6 levels, dual vasopressor support, and acute kidney failure, he was started on early (within 12 h) continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) with CytoSorb filter (for 3 days) for cytokine removal. IL-6 levels decreased after two days of CytoSorb use. Subsequently, the patient stabilized with reduced dependence on vasopressor and ventilator assistance. Discussion: Early diagnosis of CA-MRSA and management with CRRT using CytoSorb may help improve patient outcomes. To our knowledge, this is the first report of clinical management of CA-MRSA with CytoSorb therapy in India that resulted in positive outcomes.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) are two critical conditions that can coexist with significant morbidity and mortality. AMI is a leading cause of cardiovascular death, while DKA is a severe complication of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, characterized by hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis, and ketonemia. The convergence of these conditions presents unique challenges in diagnosis and management, as the metabolic disturbances of DKA can exacerbate myocardial ischemia and contribute to poor clinical outcomes. This article aims to explore the pathophysiological interplay between AMI and DKA, focusing on their shared risk factors, metabolic derangements, and the impact of hyperglycemia and ketosis on myocardial oxygen supply and demand. Furthermore, we discuss the clinical presentation, diagnostic strategies, and therapeutic approaches tailored to this dual pathology. Early recognition and prompt intervention are crucial to improving prognosis in patients with coexisting AMI and DKA. Multidisciplinary management involving cardiologists, endocrinologists, and intensivists is essential to mitigate the adverse outcomes of this complex clinical scenario.

Rule Following: A Criterion for Wittgenstein’s meaning as Use Theory

Since the publication of Wittgenstein on Rules and Private Language by Saul Kripke, there have been controversial interpretations of what it means by ‘rule following’ with regard to the question of meaning. Kripke maintains that Wittgenstein’s paradox of rule following demands us to consider what mental or behavioral items could constitute meaning. This boils down, according to Kripke, to the conclusion that either of the choice ends up with a dilemma which calls for a solution yet again to yield another sceptical solution. Rivals to Kripke like McDowell and Wright have argued that if we seriously read Wittgenstein we realise that a dispositional choice is plausible. Others like Patrizio Lo Presti, for example, have defended Wittgenstein by positing that there is no need to separate mental and behvioral items in the first place and that Wittgenstein is misinterpreted. Following this line of thinking, this paper contends that rule following is an essential criteria for Wittgenstein theory of meaning as use. It takes the view that if the paradox forces us to make a choice then it is plausible to choose behavioral items as satisfying rule following and so meaning. The paper thus adopts the position that, when discussing the concept of language game to the conclusion that the meaning of a word is but its use, Wittgenstein successfully uses the concept of rule following to reach this conclusion. Simply, meaning as use is realized when people follow the rules of language. They are neither written rules nor syntactical rules but semantic rules of language based on context. Thus, in our daily conversations and practical life humans tend to follow rules, sometimes without being familiar with that, to successfully understand each other and take actions on various issues at hand. This begins right from the moment we learn language.

This study takes a quantitative approach by using Partial Least Squares (PLS) as its statistical method. PLS is well-suited for analyzing correlations between complex variables. Maximizing explained variance enhances prediction accuracy, which is why PLS is chosen. The study ensures full data representation by using a saturation sampling strategy, which encompasses all relevant population members. Although green HR management has a major effect on company culture, the results show that it has little to no effect on employee performance. Furthermore, corporate culture mediates the relationship between green HR management and staff effectiveness, which in turn has a substantial impact on worker performance. The study concludes that for effective implementation of green HRM, it is essential to integrate it with an organizational culture that aligns with sustainability values. For this reason, green human resource management practices ought to be an essential component of the culture of every organization that aspires to raise the level of productivity achieved by its workforce.

Abstract

Seepage is one of the main causes of dams and some other hydraulic structures' failure. Water movement beneath the dam’s base creates piping and uplift pressure under the structure, potentially leading to improper dam operation. This current study focuses on the utilization of a special technique to restrict the transfer of movement water via soil which includes sheet piles under the dam foundation. Sheet pile walls are interlocking pile segments that are embedded in soil to resist horizontal pressure, classified as a flexible retaining system, and capable of tolerating relatively large deformations. Sheet piles are made of various materials, such as wood, concrete, steel, and aluminum, which are suitable for different applications. The role of seepage can be affected by the cutoff utilization. In this study, some Iraqi dam issues due to seepage are explained, also the geological stratum beneath the dam is briefly discussed. the potential use of sheet piles with different configurations has been reviewed to detect the optimum situation for seepage parameters reduction based on their numbers, interval distances, inclinations, and places.

Keywords: Seepage, sheet piles, impermeable foundation, Iraqi dams’ issues, and geological stratum.

Regspraak: State delictual liability for police wrongdoing – judicial failures and errors
Authors: Wessels B
Published: November 2024

In hierdie saak het ons weer eens te make met ’n eiser wat probeer om die minister van polisie middellik aanspreeklik te hou vir ’n delik wat deur een van sy werknemers gepleeg is. Dit is ’n voorbeeld van ’n saak waarin die werknemer iets doen wat ons kan beskryf as strydig met, of afwykend van, die take waarvoor die persoon aangestel is. Inderdaad, die pleeg van ’n geweldsmisdaad deur ’n polisieamptenaar is ooglopend strydig met die terme van sy of haar indiensneming. In sodanige gevalle behoort die hof die sogenaamde standaard-toets vir middellike aanspreeklikheid toe te pas. Dit sou behels dat daar vasgestel moet word of daar, ongeag die feit dat die werknemer subjektief gesproke opgetree het in die nastrewing van sy of haar eie belange, vanuit ’n objektiew oogpunt, ’n genoegsame noue verband getrek kan word tussen die delik en die werkgewer se doelwitte of besigheid. Die feite van die saak het die hof genoop om die gevestigde regsbeginsels, soos geformuleer en voorgeskryf deur die standaardtoets vir afwykingsgevalle, toe te pas. Die uitspraak gaan gebuk onder heelwat gebreke. In die eerste instansie is daar ’n versuim om die nodige feitelike omstandighede te skets. Dit maak dit baie moeilik vir die leser om die hof se argumente te volg. Voorts het die hof nie daarin geslaag om dit as ’n afwyking-saak te sien nie, met die gevolg dat die korrekte regsvraag nie geidentifiseer is nie. Inteendeel, die regsvraag wat die hof indentifiseer, skep die indruk dat middellike en direkte aanspreeklikheid met mekaar verwar is. Dit verras daarom ook nie dat die uitspraak nie die relevante regsbeginsels op ’n samehangende wyse beskryf of toepas nie. In die algemeen moet dit as ’n swak uitspraak beskou word. Die vonnisbespreking lig enkele van die swak punte uit in die hoop dat soortgelyke foute in die toekoms vormy kan word. In die finale instansie word daar ook in die bespreking enkele breë en algemene opmerkings gemaak oor die praktiese uitdagings en teoretiese implikasies van die staat se uitdyende deliktuele aanspreeklikheid.
THE IMPACT OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC FACTORS AND INEQUALITIES
ON LABOUR MARKET OPPORTUNITIES
Authors: HELMECZI Gabriella
Published: November 2024

In both developing and developed countries of the world, including Hungary, there
are significant inequalities in both health status and the spatial distribution of the health
system. Regional inequalities are a major challenge, as areas and regions that are
disadvantaged are less able to develop and the people living there have fewer opportunities
for economic advancement and better living conditions. Widely discussed in the literature
that socio-economic status has a significant impact on the health status of a society.
Economic and territorial disparities can be found within a municipality, a county, a region, a
country, or even across Europe. In our study, we examine territorial and social inequalities
in Hungary, with a special focus on economic, educational and health inequalities. We
wanted to answer the question of how these factors might affect the lifestyle and labour
market opportunities of the population. In this study, we use data from various sources and
databases to illustrate the socio-economic differences and their effects in different regions.
Research shows that the demographic situation, together with the ageing of societies, has
a significant impact on countries' social security systems, pension systems and health care.
Projections in the more advanced EU Member States show an increase in the proportion of
people aged eighty-five and over by 2020. Higher educational attainment enhances an
individual's social skills, abilities and capabilities and promotes a healthier lifestyle by
managing risks more consciously. Various surveys show that only 50% of high school
graduates rate their health as good or particularly good, while for those with tertiary
education the figure is close to 75%. There is a direct correlation between income and health
status. In poor countries in particular, there is a clear link between income levels and
mortality rates. Higher income is often associated with better health. In most EU countries,
poor people are much more likely to have poor or extremely poor health.
SHORT-STAY ACCOMMODATION OFFERED VIA ONLINE
COLLABORATIVE PLATFORMS IN ROMANIA. A PRE- AND POSTPANDEMIC COMPARISON

The tourism industry has experienced significant growth in recent years, except
for the COVID-19 pandemic. The pre-pandemic period was quite favorable for
accommodation platforms, but the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on them
between 2020 and 2021, which however were able to recover in the post-pandemic period.
Once the travel restrictions were imposed in 2020, the possibilities for international travel
were also limited, both in terms of the legal regulations imposed by the authorities and the
desire of people to avoid unnecessary exposure to health risks. However, in 2021, some
countries have lifted restrictions, which has led to a gradual recovery. In this article we want
to analyze some statistics on short-stay accommodation in Romania in the period 2018 -
2022. The article is based on data provided to Eurostat by four international platforms
(Airbnb, Booking, Expedia Group and Tripadvisor). Following the analysis of the data at the
Romanian level, we could observe that in the pre-pandemic period the number of nights
spent via collaborative platforms registered an increase, after which the pandemic period
determined a significant decrease in the number of nights spent. After the pandemic period
the number of nights spent was again on an upward trend, even exceeding the prepandemic period. However, the ratio of domestic to foreign overnight stays changed in the
post-pandemic period. In Romania, the share of domestic guest nights has increased.
