Synthesis, Characterization, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Naringenin Derivatives as Anticancer Agents
Authors: Murti Yogesh , Mishra Pradeep
Published: December 2018

Background:

In the present study, a series of substituted naringenin derivatives was synthesized
by Claisen–Schmidt reaction using grinding technique.

Methods:

Synthesized compounds were characterized on the basis of Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy
(FTIR), proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR), Mass Spectroscopy (MS) and elemental
analysis. These derivatives were screened for anticancer activity on breast (MCF-7) and colon
(HT-29) cell lines using Sulforhodamine B (SRB) colorimetric assay.

Results:

Results displayed improved inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of naringenin derivatives.
IC50 values of 3(4-chlorobenzylidene)-5,7-dihydroxy-2(4-hydroxyphenyl)chroman-4-one are 10.35 μM
(MCF-7) & 12.03 μM (HT-29), which is most potent compound in the series. These finding confirms
the suitability of 3-substituted naringenin in improving the anticancer effect.

Conclusion:

Due to the intense interest in the development of drugs capable of inhibiting cancerous
cells, naringenin derivatives may represent important precursor molecules for the therapeutic armamentarium
of colon and breast cancer. Further structural modification in these structures will be of interest
and may result in compounds having a better anticancer activity.
Performance Evaluation of Cognitive Internet on Things Under Routing Attacks
Authors: Makani Ruchi , Ramana Reddy Busi V.
Published: December 2018

Background & Objective::

In past few years, Cognitive Radio (CR) paradigm has emerged
as a promising and revolutionary solution to avoid problems of spectrum paucity and inefficiency in
spectrum usage. Efficiently utilization of the spectrum offers high network performance. CRs are
proficient to identify and adopt the unused spectrum in order to allow secondary users to occupy it
without interfering the primary user’s activity. Cognitive Internet on Things (CIoT) is an integration
of several technologies and communication solutions which can be effectively realized as Cognitive
Radio Adhoc Networks (CRAHN). In CRANH, on-demand routing protocols are the best suitable
protocols due to their dynamic feature of available un-utilized channel/spectrum selection.

Methods:

Here, firstly, Ad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol has been
modified and further evaluated to address route selection challenges in CIoT framework. Secondly,
the effects on network performance under network layer routing attacks (i.e. blackhole attack, byzantine
attack and flooding attacks) are evaluated.

Conclusion:

The simulations results demonstrate network performance increase with more channels
and degrade differently under attacks.
RESPONSABILIDADE DEMOCRÁTICA COMO PRESSUPOSTO DE UMA TEORIA DA INTERPRETAÇÃO: DISCUSSÃO EM TORNO DA ADI 4983/CE
Authors: Krell Andreas Joachim , Alves Pedro de Oliveira
Published: December 2018

Partindo da discussão sobre a repercussão da decisão do STF que invalidou a lei cearense sobre a vaquejada, discute-se a teoria da interpretação constitucional contemporânea. A pesquisa pretende verificar a reflexividade do sistema jurídica na evolução da compreensão sobre o sentido do direito em uma sociedade política. Adotando o pensamento de Karl Popper como marco teórico, são apresentadas novas proposições sobre interpretação, aplicação e necessidade de postura crítica na prática jurídica. Apresenta a possibilidade de distinção entre interpretação e aplicação como hipótese, diferenciando também a decisão jurídica de uma decisão judicial. O objetivo é refletir sobre problemas contemporâneos da jurisdição constitucional a partir de uma revalorização da interpretação extrajudicial. Analisa elementos de uma possível postura hermenêutica com influências do chamado “Racionalismo Crítico”, especialmente a respeito do pensamento de Popper sobre conhecimento, parcialidade do intérprete e teoria evolucionista da interpretação. Por fim, os resultados obtidos nesta pesquisa trazem novas premissas para a discussão de uma nova compreensão da argumentação jurídica a partir de uma postura racional crítica.
REFLEXÕES SOBRE O CARÁTER NORMATIVO DO DIREITO INTERNACIONAL E SOBRE O PAPEL DA SOBERANIA
Authors: Nemer Caldeira Brant Leonardo , Wanderley Júnior Bruno
Published: December 2018

O direito internacional é uma ordem normativa sistematizada, apesar de persistirem críticas a tal constatação. Entre tais críticas está aquela que pressupõe que apenas um sistema normativo tal como as ordens jurídicas internas poderia caracterizar um sistema normativo válido, o que não é correto visto que a ordem internacional não precisa refletir a mesma estrutura da ordem interna para se configurar como um sistema normativo válido. Outro argumento levantado se refere à inexistência de um sistema coercitivo efetivo na ordem internacional, mas tal constatação se mostra falaciosa visto que a aplicação de sanção coercitiva não é requisito para a existência de normas ou de sistemas normativos, mas sim de sua eficácia. Mas se o direito internacional é uma ordem normativa, o que o difere de outros ramos do direito? Por meio da análise do pensamento de autores de diferentes escolas positivistas, o presente artigo propõe demonstrar que a soberania é o principal elemento que diferencia o direito internacional de outros ramos do direito. Para tal fim, as críticas relativas à normatividade do direito internacional serão refutadas, e será demonstrada que a soberania está na gênese do direito internacional, o legitimando e atribuindo-lhe particularidades.
DO ESTADO DESENVOLVIMENTISTA AO ESTADO REGULADOR? TRANSFORMAÇÃO, RESILIÊNCIA E COEXISTÊNCIA ENTRE DOIS MODOS DE INTERVENÇÃO
Authors: Schapiro Mario G.
Published: December 2018

Nas últimas décadas, a literatura registrou uma difusão do modelo regulatório, tanto em países desenvolvidos, como em países desenvolvimento, inclusive naqueles em que prevalecera uma intervenção desenvolvimentista. Como traço comum, diversos países realizaram reformas institucionais que estabeleceram as bases de um outro tipo de governança econômica. A despeito da matriz global do fenômeno, as mudanças institucionais são processadas no âmbito nacional. Assim, o resultado das reformas não é necessariamente um reflexo direto das agendas de organismos multilaterais. Na dimensão doméstica, fatores de resistência institucional (path dependence) podem impactar os desenhos institucionais e a governança econômica. A resiliência institucional está presente, entre outros, na doutrina jurídica, na aplicação das regras jurídicas pelos tribunais e também na sua mobilização pelos grupos de interesse. Por essa razão, a despeito do isomorfismo das agências e da convergência regulatória, a anatomia institucional da intervenção estatal adquire formatos institucionais diferentes entre os países e seus setores econômicos. Em termos analíticos, os diferentes ajustes entre o modelo regulatório propagado e a configuração jurídica local podem ser compreendidos pelos tipos: transformação, resiliência e coexistência. O trabalho apresenta como exemplo reformas regulatórias ocorridas no sistema financeiro, em que prevaleceu a coexistência entre o arranjo precedente e a nova composição institucional.
EDGE STATE METHOD IN MECHANICS PROBLEMS CONCERNING ANISOTROPIC THIN PLATES
Authors: Ivanychev D. A.
Published: December 2018

ObjectivesThe aims of the study are to expand the edge state method for solving bending and torsion problems concerning anisotropic thin plates, develop the theory of construction of the bases of spaces of interior and edge states based on a general approximate solution to the plate bending problem, formulate the relationships determining the desired elastic state and implement the developed theory in solving specific problems.

MethodsThe fulfilment of the tasks is assumed to be based on the edge state method. The state spaces comprising the methodological basis are formed according to the fundamental system of Weierstrass polynomials.

ResultsAn isomorphism of interior and edge state spaces is demonstrated, allowing a correspondence between the elements of these spaces to be unambiguously established. The isomorphism of spaces allows the process of finding the internal state to be reduced to the study of the edge state isomorphic to it. The mechanical characteristics are represented in the form of a Fourier series. In the case of the first and second fundamental mechanics problems, the Fourier coefficients are represented by scalar products having an energy implication: in the space of edge states, this consists in the work of external forces; in the space of internal states, it is the internal energy of elastic deformation. In the case of mixed mechanical problems, the search for an elastic state in the terms of the edge state method is reduced to solving an infinite system of algebraic equations.

 ConclusionThe solution of the first-tested basic problem of bending with torsion for a rectangular fibreglass plate with corresponding conclusions is given, as well as the problems of torsion for a plate of nontrivial form. Commentaryis provided concerning the unreasonableness of the solution of the second fundamental problem, as well as the problem with mixed boundary conditions for a rectangular plate where twisting and bending forces are defined simultaneously on the one face, while the opposite face is squeezed. Both explicit and indirect signs of the convergence of the solution to the problem are presented along with a graphical visualisation of the results.

As an educational institution in the middle level, Muhammadiyah 4 Senior High School has a significant role in mapping the superior potential of its students. At this level, students are expected to know their interests and talents in a particular field. Once interest and talent are identified, students can focus on choosing study programs that are appropriate to their respective interests and talents. Having a clear target will make students more motivated to optimize their academic value in preparation for the target program. For this reason, schools need to map superior potential for their students to achieve the vision and mission set by the school. Through interest and talent tests and seminars organized by the FEB-UHAMKA lecturer team in the framework of community service through community partnership programs, it is expected to help the school to do this mapping. Superior potential mapping is done to prepare excellent human resources because they have expertise in their specific fields. Without mapping, schools are expenses or costs that will just disappear. Conversely, by doing talent mapping, schools will be an investment that provides benefits both for the individual itself and for the wider environment.

Governing Marine Protected Areas in a Changing Climate: Private Stakeholders’ Perspectives
Authors: Ma Xuechan
Published: December 2018

Climate change has become one of the most pressing problems for both nature and human lives. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are part of a “natural solution” to climate change. Most of existing MPAs are governed by government agencies rather than private stakeholders such as NGOs, local communities and for-profit enterprises. Nevertheless, with the global push to create MPAs, the number of privately governed MPAs is expected to increase. In this context, this paper aims to investigate the role of private stakeholders in enhancing the governance effectiveness of MPAs so as to improve their capability to counter any adverse impact brought by the changing climate. After analysis, the strengths and weaknesses of the practice of each category of private stakeholders are uncovered and specific recommendations are proposed to promote the future practice. With the increasing number of privately governed MPAs in the future, this paper serves as a starting point and contributes to the literature on the study of the private governance of MPAs in the context of the changing climate.

Authors: Budiarta L. G. R. , Suputra P. E. D. , Widiasmara I. K.
Published: December 2018

Writing is a difficult skill in English; most of English for Foreign Language students tend to make errors in writing. In assisting the learners to successfully acquire writing skill, an analysis of errors is necessary to be conducted. This study aims at identifying the types of grammatical errors on students’ narrative writings and analyzing the causing factors contributing to the students’ errors. Descriptive qualitative design was applied in this study. The subjects of the study were the ninth grade students of SMP Negeri 1 Sukawati. The data were collected from students’ narrative writings, questionnaires, andinterviews. In analyzing the data, this study applied the theory from Dulay et al. (1982) in identifying the types of errors and for analyzing the contributing factors of the errors this study used Brown’s (2000) theory. The result of the data analysis showed that the most frequent type of grammatical errors committed wasmisformation error (46.50%), followed by omission error (35.56%), addition error (14.74%), and the least one was misordering error (3.19%). Moreover, the sources of errors were dominated by intralingual transfer (35.33%), followed by interlingual transfer (34.50%), and context of learning (30.15%). Related to this findings, this study had similar result with Hamid & Qayyimah’s (2014) and Ma’mun’s (2016) researcheswhich also found misformation and intralingual transfer as the biggest contributing factors to the errors. Therefore, this present study suggests that the teachers have to find a better way in teaching and learning process of writing and students have to practice more vocabulary especially regarding the forms of verbs, so it can minimize the grammatical errors that occur. Keywords:error analysis, grammatical errors, sources of errors, narrative text

Published: December 2018

Historically historical literature has cultural roots especially in the development of the character of the values of local wisdom. In addition to the development of literary history culture can be one of the references in the process of writing historiography. This study aims to find the values of local wisdom in the work of historical literature. This research uses historical method. The conclusion in this study finds that the historical literature that developed in Java expressed the literary writer's poetry. Culturally, the contents of historical literature reflect the strategy of enculturation of the values of theroyal family's wisdom to the Javanese community. The suggestion in this study is to develop a further study of other forms of enculturation in historical literature in the development of local wisdom values of the Javanese community.
INSTRUMENTS OF RETAIL BANKING BUSINESS: USING INFORMATION CROSS-CHANNELS TO FIGHT AGAINST FRAUD AND FALSIFICATION
Authors: Magomaeva Leyla Rumanovna
Published: December 2018

Nowadays, information cross-channels are a unique tool for developing new products and services in the banking business. The effective cross-channel information system that provides prevention or a significant reduction in the number of incidents related to serious operational and reputational risks, as well as violations of the security regime, is now an essential element of protection. Standard cross-channels for detecting internal fraud and falsification in the bank's retail business are mainly implemented by means of a distant method. At the heart of remote cross-channels there is the use of automated and semi-automated control procedures significantly reducing labor costs for monitoring activities. With their help one can compare the various operations and build a logical chain leading to the detection of internal fraud and falsification. The article reveals new directions for using cross-channels in the context of combating fraud and falsification in banking. It has been proved that the improvement of the cross-channel based on the computer vision method in the future will allow banks to identify in real time both presence and identity of the employee and client with the purpose of deeper analysis of the conducted operations for detecting internal fraud and falsification. The active development of information cross-channels in retail banks is predetermined by increased competition and the need for additional monitoring of ongoing operations and transactions in order to reduce the risks and uncertainties of the external and internal environment. The combination of information and analytical procedures in a single cross-channel makes can improve predictive methods and use them to promoting a client-oriented strategy.
CREATING ENTERPRISE FINANCIAL STABILITY CONTROL TOOL USING FUZZY LOGIC METHODS
Authors: Bodnar Alina Valerievna
Published: December 2018

In the current economic and political situation the existing methods and models of analyzing and consolidating financial statements in the information architecture of an enterprise do not meet modern business environment criteria. The article presents a model built by using the fuzzy logic apparatus, managing the financial stability of the enterprises of the consolidated group using MATLAB toolkit and FuzzyLogic software package. The model is based on an integral indicator of the financial performance of the enterprise. The key performance indicators have been formed allowing to comprehensively assess the financial condition of the enterprise and the level of its financial stability. The presented indicators go through the stage of fuzzification, where eache factor is given a membership function, a decision and defuzzification stage, i.e. reduction of the resulting a fuzzy value to clarity. Application of Mamdani fuzzy inference algorithm allows to obtain a clear value of the integral indicator of the financial state of the enterprise. The obtained value allows to take on-line operational management decisions. The developed model has been applied to assess the financial state of “Metinvest Holding” enterprise, to identify its weak and strong sides, as well as to propose ways to improve its activities and possible options for taking managerial decisions. It has been inferred that fuzzy logic methods make it possible to analyze the financial stability of consolidated groups of companies under conditions of uncertainty, for example, in those cases when there is not any full-fledged statistics, or that non-financial data should be included in the number of investigated indicators. There have been used general scientific methods: generalization, abstraction, analogy, induction and deduction, a systematic approach and toolkit of fuzzy modeling to assess financial state of the enterprise and to manage its stability, as well as methods of scientific cognition.
PROFITABILITY OF COMMERCIAL BANKS OF RUSSIA: MODERN STATE AND DEVELOPMENT TRENDS
Authors: Starodubtseva Elena Borisovna , Markova Olga Mikhailovna
Published: December 2018

Profitability indicators are included in the group of key financial indicators of a modern commercial bank, in particular, they act as one of the key performance criteria for a commercial bank, the use of assets and liabilities. The growth of profitability of a commercial bank contributes to the improvement of its financial condition; profitability is one of the components of the competitiveness of a commercial bank; profitability is important for business owners and investors. Improving profitability is a tool to increase the investment attractiveness of the bank, contributes to the growth of the market value of the shares. Increasing profitability is one of the main tasks of a modern commercial bank. There has been carried out the comparative analysis of profitability criteria of the largest commercial Russian banks: PJSC Sberbank, PJSC VTB, PJSC Gasprombank, JSC “Rosselkhozbank”, JSC “Alfa-bank”, etc. It has been stated that in recent years the profitability of commercial banks in Russia was rather unstable, but the most banks are profitable both in capital and in assets. Banks with state share 16.1% have the lead in capital profitability. The analysis of the two major indicators of profitability (assets and capital) showed their vulnerability to a range of internal and external factors. There have been determined the reasons of decreasing assets profitability of the commercial banks: problems of external funding; access to international capital markets in terms of sanctions against Russian banks; decrease of prices on oil and other raw materials. All this results in a slowdown of the state economics, inflation growth, increase of the proportion of non-performing loans and additional expenses on levies, etc. Proposals to improve profitability have been made.
The Importance of the Doctrine of the Trinity in Reformed Theology
Authors: MOGA Dinu
Published: December 2018

Discussing the doctrine of the Trinity more recent scholars have shown that the importance of this doctrine in Reformed theology will be understood better when we look at it, not in an isolated position to what was going on in the theological camps before Reformation, but as a part of a theological tradition which precedes Reformation and even the Middle Ages.
In Reformed theology the doctrine of the Trinity is also of the greatest importance for the spiritual life of the believer. Quite unjustifiably it is sometimes maintained that the doctrine of the trinity is merely a philosophically abstracted dogma and that it possesses no value for religion and life. But when we believe in the trinity we notice that this doctrine stands in an intimate relationship with our experience as the children of God. We believe that God the Father is the Creator of all things and He supplies for every need of body and soul. He is faithful and Almighty and will do He has promised to do. He has sent the Son who was conceived in Mary by the Holy Spirit. He is our Saviour, who redeemed us with His own blood, died and raised again and is now ascended in glory and constantly intercedes for us with the Father. Christ has sent His Spirit who is working in us and leads us into all truth, preserving us for our eternal inheritance.
Thus the confession of the Trinity is the sum of the Christian religion. Without it neither the creation nor the redemption nor the sanctification can be purely maintained. Every departure from this confession leads to error in the other heads of doctrine. We can truly proclaim the mighty works of God only when we recognize and confess them as the one great work of Father, Son and Spirit.

Approaching Unity through Emptiness (Self-emptying): Dialogue between Quantum Physics, Religions and Ourselves.
In the following study, we examine the notion of emptiness, especially its theological and psychological aspects, but we also mention an interesting quantum physics theory in this regard. The purpose of the study is to show the meaning of emptying and related to this the aspiration of self-emptying, which is devaluated to the consumer society, and how important it is in Christian spirituality – in close association with prayer life – and at the same time in life-growth, how it can work on the unity among people, with special regard to the unity between different religious views. This study mentions further thoughts which can encourage philosophical thinking about the relationships, correlations between self-emptying and the viewing, thinking, and expression mods of exceeding the conditioned mind. We will examine that reality is mostly subjective and how important is to know this. We will further examine the definitions of objectivity and subjectivity which are so relative and in accordance with this the existence of an absolute observer is required so that the ultimate truth can be determined (would it be the “evidence of God quantum physics”?) We will also examine if it is possible to solve the paradoxes, how the question of unity and the unbundling of universe was seen by the mystics of the great religions through hundreds or thousands of years, and how far they had exceed by their experiences of their deepened, meditative practices and by their related experiences the opposites of those who were unable to abandon their conditioned mind, and how their teachings seem to be justified by the modern, exact science, the quantum physics which is often mentioned as the Copernican source of classical Newtonian physics nowadays. However, our aim is not to formulate irrefutable truths, but above all, to motivate further thinking, to exceed the traditional, customary ways of thinking, to look for the possibilities to approach each other's understanding – through emptiness.
Szenczi Molnár Albert: „Psalterium Ungaricum” – Isten énekelt igéje magyarul?
Authors: BENKŐ Timea

Albert Szenci Molnár: Psalterium Ungaricum – Word of God sung in Hungarian?
In 2017, the Hungarian Protestants celebrate the 410th anniversary of the Psalm Book of Albert Szenci Molnár, yet in the 500th jubilee of the Reformation, little attention has been given to this achievement. Considering the hymnal practices of our contemporary congregations, it is well worth analysing the state of the sung Psalms within our liturgy. The Psalm Book has an important literary, linguistic, and musical value, mainly because it is the first hymnal booklet comprised of the entirety of 150 Psalms edited with a clear paraphrased verse structure, printed in Hungarian. Should a congregation follow the pericope order in establishing the Bible verses that stand at the basis of the sermon, every chosen verse can easily be accompanied by an appropriate Geneva Psalm. Is it possible to establish a fixed place and function for the Psalms within the liturgy? What sort of auxiliary materials are at our disposal with regard to the choosing of the appropriate Genevan Psalm within a given liturgical frame? In what way is it possible to highlight the sermon aspect of the sung Geneva Psalms as edited in Hungarian language by Szenci especially in the case in which they are sung intermittently by a congregation and a choir? What type of new musical Psalm-arrangements have there been made? In what way is it possible to use these new adaptations, in order to bring the archaic texts and old melodies closer to the contemporary youth of the congregation? In the present study we give a brief overview of the role of the Psalms within the Christian liturgy, we present the history of the Psalm Book of Albert Szenci Molnár, and provide answers to these questions listed above.
Amplitudes Spectrum Comparison as a Method of Selecting Welded Joints
Authors: Szeleziński Adam , Muc Adam , Murawski Lech
Published: December 2018

The paper presents a comparative analysis of non-destructive testing methods used in the assessment of welded joints. The authors describe the methodology of conducting tests on welded plates using the vibration method. On the basis of the FFT analysis of responses from accelerometers, spectral characteristics were calculated, and then used along with statistical measures to develop a comparative method in non-destructive testing of welded joints. This method will make it possible to quickly and easily distinguish plates with non-defective welded joints from plates with faulty welds. The paper presents test results for a non-defective plate weld (sample no. 2202), a plate with defective edge fusion (sample no. 2127) and one with a cracking along the entire sample length (sample no. 2132). The article points out the limitations of the proposed method and the need for further research
Marine Propulsion System Vibration Sensor Heads
Authors: Bielawski Piotr
Published: December 2018

Vibration symptoms are the main symptoms used for diagnosing machines. This applies mainly to vibrations of non-rotating machines. Symptoms of rotating element vibrations are used in a limited scope, while mostly used are the symptoms of radial vibrations of rotating shafts. Across industries, the use of technical vibration diagnosis varies. Marine propulsion systems are poorly equipped with diagnostic equipment of that type. One of the main reasons is lack of appropriate sensors. The study presents two solutions of sensor heads. One solution applies to a sensor head built into the free end of the crankshaft of a reciprocating machine. The shaft free end sensor allows measurement of torsional and longitudinal vibration accelerations of the free end as a function of shaft rotation. The other solution refers to a sensor head built into sealed slide bearing of a straight shaft. The slide bearing head enables measurement of the eccentricity to the journal relative to the shell. Sensor heads under consideration are particularly suitable to be built in the ship’s propulsion system and integrated with the ship’s maintenance system. Sensors of the ship’s maintenance system equipped with these heads will allow the operator to draw conclusions concerning the wear margins of the propulsion engine and that of the tail shaft.
Selected Issues on the Methodology of Determining the Efficiency of a Ship’s Energy System in Different Operating States
Authors: Michalski Ryszard , Zeńczak Wojciech
Published: December 2018

The article presents the methodology and algorithm for determining the efficiency of a ship’s energy system, which can be helpful at both operation and design stage. Knowledge of the methodology discussed here and the definitions of a ship’s energy system’s efficiency may be particularly useful for operators, as particularly complicated energy conversion chains exist on specialized units, such as fishing vessels, which have many devices that can be driven by different types of engines and transmissions. Proper disposal of energy streams allows for their optimal use and for a reduction in fuel consumption, whose cost constitutes the largest share of the vessel’s operating costs.
Regulating Visibility: Secrecy and Surveillance in Insular Religious Communities
Authors: McDonald Deirdre
Published: December 2018

Insular religious communities offer significant insights into some of the issues facing contemporary Western societies, including the issues of religious secrecy and surveillance. The role of secrecy in these communities involves dynamic strategies invoked for many reasons in equally numerous contexts. The behaviours and practices of these groups often reflect much larger issues present in today’s society. In this way, they can guide us in understanding the role of surveillance from a sociological perspective in the current climate of tensions and anxieties. These communities are especially useful for thinking about questions of why some religious groups rigidly control and restrict access to bodies of secret, sacred knowledge or activities and in turn how religious secrecy is viewed by the wider social worlds in which their degree of visibility fluctuates. Here, I suggest an opportunity emerges for the study of secrecy in relation to the notion of regulating visibility by reorienting the focus from the roles of secrets and of secretive practices to one that also considers the more visible forms and strategies through which secrets and secretive practices come to be and are sustained.
Eyes on You while Your Eyes Are on God: State Surveillance of Religion in Ghana under the Provisional National Defence Council Regime
Authors: Oduro-Marfo Smith
Published: December 2018

This paper discusses Ghana’s erstwhile Religious Bodies Registration Law (PNDC Law 221) passed by the Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC) in 1989 and the associated bans placed on the Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormon sects. First, the paper analyzes how the state’s surveillance moves engendered lateral and anti-surveillance practices. Second, Eric Stoddart’s concept of (in)visibility is used as an analytical framework to track how both the surveilling entity (the state and community surveillers) and the surveilled (religious bodies and their members) actively partook in constructing the visibility and invisibility of the surveilled. The paper concludes that the state’s theoretical ambition of religious surveillance was not fully matched in practice, as implementation was mediated by a pragmatic blend of “seeing” and “unseeing.” Also, the response of the religious sects to the surveillance involved a strategic pursuit of simultaneous visibility and invisibility.
