Implication of 4th Industrial Revolution on Tax Revenue Collection in Tanzania: A Case of Manufacturing Industries
Authors: E. N. Heriel , C. Praygod
Published: March 2024

The study assessed the implication of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) on tax revenue collection in Tanzania. Specifically, the study set out to establish the causality of investment in 4IR technologies, on manufacturing industries’ Value Added Tax (VAT); determine the influence of investment in 4IR technologies on manufacturing industries’ Corporate Tax and examine the effects of investment in 4IR technologies on manufacturing industries’ Employment Tax (PAYE). To achieve the research objectives, the study used a quantitative descriptive design to generate the required data. Moreover, the study used structured questionnaires for cross-sectional survey, administered with 225 production managers of manufacturing industries in Tanzania. It used probability sampling in the form of cluster sampling. Additionally, the study used the Least Square method to analyse the objectives of the study in addition to testing the hypotheses. The study found a positive and statistically significant causal effect between investment in modern technology, VAT, Corporate tax and Employment Tax (PAYE) of manufacturing firms in Tanzania, for the period under study. Implicitly, the emergence of 4IR does not necessarily occasion a decline in tax revenue collections (VAT, PAYE, and Corporate Tax) on the part of manufacturing firms in developing countries endowed with resources, like Tanzania, but rather complements and accelerates its growth. Thus, the study calls on the Tanzania Government to review and improve its Sustainable Industrial Development Policy of 2020 and the Integrated Industrial Development Strategy of 2025 to embrace, promote and support not only resource-based industries, but also technological based industries, to speed up industrialization within the country and ultimately improve and increase tax revenue collection. The government should also improve its investment policies and align them with technological changes brought by 4IR, to attract more foreign direct investments, importation and adaptation of 4IR technologies from developed countries that enhance productivity, turnover and tax revenue collections from the manufacturing sector.

Predictive Pharmacogenetic Testing in Psychiatry: Pros and Cons
Authors: Avilov A. Yu. , Kidyaeva A. V. , Vaiman E. E.
Published: March 2024

Pharmacogenetic testing (PGx) is an important diagnostic tool for achieving an optimal balance between the effectiveness and safety of psychotropic drugs, especially those requiring long-term use. The most prescribed medications in psychiatric practice are antipsychotics (APs). Despite the long period of use of APs, their safety profile remains insufficiently high. Due to the high incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs), from the central nervous system (CNS) and other organs and tissues of the human body. Therapeutic drug monitoring can help predict and diagnose AP-induced ADRs only if the patient is receiving APs. PGx helps to individually select an AP, its dose and clarify the risk of ADRs before prescribing an AP, or at the start of therapy. This explains the importance of PGx in psychiatrist practice. However, to date, most practicing psychiatrists rarely use predictive PGx or do not use this method. PGx is more often prescribed in the case of a long history of un-successful AP-therapy, or in the case of the development of serious ADRs, the risk of which could be significantly reduced if predictive PGx was used. This case report of PGx in a 56-year-old woman with severe bipolar disorder demonstrates that the trajectory of ADRs and socialization could be significantly improved if this method was prescribed before the initiation of APs, rather than in the event of the development of serious ADRs.
Beyond Quotas: Addressing Barriers to Women’s Political Participation in Asia
Authors: Rahman Ahnaf Ashiqur , Hosen Imran
Published: March 2024

This study examines the proliferation of gender quotas in Asian national politics, prompted by global advocacy for a more gender-inclusive political landscape. While these quotas have augmented the numerical presence of women, their substantive representation remains elusive. Instances from Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan, Bangladesh, and Korea provide insights into various barriers such as violence, sexual harassment, societal expectations, cultural stigmas, and institutional gate keeping. These challenges underscore a quantitative rather than a qualitative focus of gender quotas. The study proposes remedies, including the cultivation of inspirational female leaders and structural reforms aimed at dismantling entrenched barriers to women’s political participation.
The Role of Customary Law in Natural Resource Management: A Comparative Study between Indonesia and Australia
Authors: Buana Andika Prawira , Mamonto Moch Andry Wikra Wardhana
Published: March 2024

Natural resource management is crucial for sustainable development, especially in regions abundant in biodiversity and natural assets. Nations worldwide face the challenge of managing their resources effectively while promoting economic growth, social justice, and environmental conservation. Customary law plays a significant role in resource governance, particularly in countries like Indonesia and Australia, where indigenous communities have deep-rooted connections to the land and its resources. This comparative study explores the role of customary law in natural resource management in Indonesia and Australia. Both countries possess diverse ecosystems and substantial indigenous populations, offering valuable insights into the interaction between customary and state legal systems in resource governance. In Indonesia, customary law, known as adat, influences resource management practices, albeit with variations in recognition and integration into formal legal frameworks. Conversely, in Australia, the colonization process has disrupted traditional governance structures, leading to ongoing struggles for indigenous rights and recognition. By examining case studies, legal frameworks, and policy initiatives in both countries, this study aims to identify challenges and opportunities for integrating customary law into broader governance frameworks and promoting more equitable and sustainable resource management practices. Additionally, this comparative analysis contributes to scholarly debates on the role of customary law in contemporary legal systems and its implications for environmental governance, indigenous rights, and social justice. Interdisciplinary perspectives from legal studies, anthropology, environmental science, and development studies offer valuable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and indigenous communities striving for more inclusive and effective resource management approaches.

A Proposal for method of cold nuclear fusion, based on new Axioms and Laws
Authors: Valentina Markova
Published: March 2024

It is known that the Classical field theory is based on 1 basic Axiom set by Maxwell (1864). This basic Axiom describes a field with movement along a closed loop and with constant speed. It is an ideal foundation for describing an Electromagnetic Field, but it is not suitable for other more complex fields with variable speed and different accelerations. The author has proposed a more general Theory of Extended Field which consists of 2 Axioms and 8 Laws. New Axiom1 describes a structure of field with movement along open loop or open vortex with variable speed. New Axiom2 describes two mutual orthogonal structures of fields which work in resonance. This new Theory leads to the following results: movement in a closed loop is replaced with movement in an open loop or vortex; evenly movement is replaced with unevenly movement (decelerated or accelerated) ; during its movement decelerating vortex emits primary free cross vortices, while accelerating vortices suck in of this same primary free cross vortices; movement in 2D is transformed into the movement in 3D; a transverse vortex in 2D generates a longitudinal vortex in 3D through a special transformation and vice versa - a longitudinal vortex in 3D through another special transformation generates the cross vortex in 2D. Now the author proposes to use a longitudinal accelerating vortex for cold fusion. With a force proportional to the positive acceleration, it will suck in both vortices and atoms - in this case the isotope of hydrogen (deuterium). The accelerator vortex sucks in and sticks two of all the deuterium, which will form helium in an exothermic reaction with the release of a lot of heat. A longitudinal acceleration vortex can be generated by applying Law 2. A decelerating transverse vortex in plane 2D (moving outside-inward) generates at its center a longitudinal accelerating vortex in 3D perpendicular to the 2D plane. This perpendicular accelerating vortex at the center pulls the transverse decelerating vortex up (against the Gravitational Force) or has quality of Anti-Gravity Force.

Published: March 2024

Substance use disorders represent a significant public health challenge worldwide, necessitating a nuanced understanding of cultural variations in treatment approaches. This review examines global perspectives on substance use treatment, focusing on cross-cultural approaches and conceptual solutions aimed at enhancing public health outcomes. Cross-cultural perspectives underscore the importance of recognizing diverse cultural beliefs, values, and practices in addressing substance use disorders. Cultural factors such as stigma, religious beliefs, and societal norms profoundly influence individuals' perceptions of substance use and treatment-seeking behaviors. Understanding these cultural nuances is crucial for developing effective interventions tailored to specific populations. Moreover, this review explores various treatment modalities that have been implemented across different cultural contexts. From traditional healing practices rooted in indigenous knowledge to evidence-based interventions adapted for cultural relevance, a spectrum of approaches exists to address substance use disorders globally. Integrating traditional healing methods with modern evidence-based treatments showcases promising outcomes in promoting recovery and reducing substance-related harm. Furthermore, conceptual solutions for enhancing public health outcomes emphasize the importance of a comprehensive and holistic approach. This includes addressing social determinants of health, promoting community engagement, and fostering collaboration between diverse stakeholders, including governments, healthcare providers, and community organizations. This review highlights the necessity of adopting culturally sensitive approaches to substance use treatment to effectively address the complex interplay between culture, health beliefs, and treatment outcomes. By recognizing and respecting cultural diversity, we can develop more inclusive and effective strategies to mitigate the impact of substance use disorders on individuals and communities worldwide.

Authors: Tolulope Esther Edunjobi  , Opeyemi Abayomi Odejide
Published: March 2024

This paper delves into theoretical frameworks in AI for credit risk assessment, exploring how these frameworks enhance banking efficiency and accuracy. It discusses various AI techniques such as machine learning algorithms, neural networks, and natural language processing, and their application in credit risk assessment. Furthermore, it examines the challenges and opportunities presented by these frameworks, highlighting their potential to revolutionize the banking sector. Revolutionizing Credit Risk Assessment in Banking, The Role of Artificial Intelligence In the dynamic realm of finance, the assessment of credit risk stands as a fundamental pillar for banking institutions. Traditionally, this process has heavily relied on statistical models and historical data. However, the emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has catalyzed a transformative shift in this domain. This paper elucidates the theoretical underpinnings of AI frameworks employed in credit risk assessment and investigates their profound implications for enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of banking operations. The exploration begins by delineating various theoretical frameworks in AI pertinent to credit risk assessment. Leveraging machine learning algorithms, neural networks, and natural language processing techniques, these frameworks offer innovative approaches to evaluate creditworthiness. Unlike conventional methods, AI-driven models possess the capacity to ingest vast datasets, identify intricate patterns, and adapt dynamically to evolving market dynamics. Such capabilities empower banks to make more informed and timely decisions regarding lending activities. Moreover, this paper delves into the practical application of AI techniques in credit risk assessment. Through case studies and empirical evidence, it elucidates how these advanced methodologies enable banks to mitigate risks while maximizing profitability. By harnessing AI, financial institutions can optimize credit scoring processes, identify potential defaulters with greater accuracy, and customize lending terms based on individual risk profiles. Additionally, AI facilitates real-time monitoring of credit portfolios, allowing proactive risk management and timely interventions to prevent adverse outcomes.

Published: March 2024

İslâm tarihinin etkin devletlerinden biri Memlükler’dir. Memlükler, Moğolların ilerleyişini durdurmak gibi tarihsel bir misyonla anılmışlardır. Onlar, siyasî faaliyetleri ve etkilerinin yanı sıra İslâmî ilimler tarihinde yetiştirdikleri âlimler ve dönemde telif edilen eserlerle kendilerinden söz ettirmişlerdir. Ayrıca dinî eğitim-öğretimi desteklemeleri ve bu anlamda kurumsal yapılara öncülük etmeleriyle yönettikleri coğrafî bölgeyi cazibe merkezi haline getirmişlerdir. Bu yönüyle hadis, tefsir ve fıkıh ilimleri söz konusu olduğunda akla ilk gelen isimler ve eserler arasında ilgili devirden örneklerin başlarda yer aldığı görülmektedir.

İslâmî ilimlerin tedris tarihinde kıraat ilminin rağbet gören sahalar arasında yer alması, Memlükler dönemi kıraat faaliyetlerine eğilmeyi zorunlu kılmaktadır. Bu dönemin doğal olarak geleneksel kıraat tedrisinden izler taşıması, ulemadan tevarüs eden birikimden beslenerek bazılarından doğrudan etkilenmesi beklenen bir durumdur. Denilebilir ki Memlükler geleneksel birikimin aktarımında “köprü” vazifesi görmüştür. Bunun yanı sıra makalenin ortaya çıkışında Memlükler dönemi kıraat ilmi faaliyetlerinin kendine has yönler taşıması, yönlendirici ve belirleyici olmuştur. Zira bu dönemde kıraat ilminin nasıl öğretildiği, hocaların hangi vasıflarıyla öne çıktığı ve kurumsallığın ne oranda etkisinin olduğu incelenmeyi bekleyen bir konudur. Buna ragmen kıraat özelinde detaylı çalışmaların yapılmamış olması son derece dikkat çekicidir. Döneme dair eserler incelendiğinde kıraat âlimlerinin diğer ilimlerde yaşanan canlılığa paralel olarak kayda değer faaliyetlerde bulundukları görülmektedir.

Systemic Peacebuilding in Mozambique: MOZ2050 Strategic Plan
Authors: Mota Ana I
Published: March 2024

Mozambique, a nation with a tumultuous history marked by colonization, civil war, and ongoing socio - economic challenges, stands at a critical juncture in its development trajectory. Since gaining independence from Portugal in 1975, Mozambique has grappled with political transitions, armed conflict, and the exploitation of its abundant natural resources. Despite its mineral wealth, particularly in the Northern region, the country continues to face pervasive issues of poverty, inequality, and social injustice. The signing of the Peace Agreement in 1992, which brought an end to the civil war between the Mozambique Liberation Front (FRELIMO) and the National Resistance of Mozambique (RENAMO), marked a pivotal moment in the nation's history. However, the aftermath of conflict has left deep scars on Mozambican society, exacerbating existing vulnerabilities and fostering conditions conducive to violent extremism. Cabo Delgado Province, renowned for its mineral riches yet plagued by poverty and instability, has become a focal point of violent extremism, notably with the emergence of the self- proclaimed Islamic State. The region has witnessed a wave of terrorist attacks, leading to mass displacement, loss of life, and profound psychological trauma among its inhabitants, particularly women, children, and persons with disabilities. In response to this complex crisis, the Mozambique 2050 (MOZ2050) Strategic Plan has been formulated, representing a holistic and innovative approach to peacebuilding and resilience-building. Grounded in extensive contextual analysis and stakeholder consultations, this multifaceted strategy aims to address the root causes of extremism while fostering social cohesion, economic empowerment, and sustainable development.

This study aims to determine parents' involvement in early childhood education based on the results of a perception survey related to their level of involvement in parent involvement programs in PAUD units. In addition, to determine the level of resilience of each family of learners and to find out the form of parental involvement activities implemented in several PAUD units in Banten. The approaches used were quantitative and qualitative approaches. The population in this study were parents of learners and PAUD teachers.  The research sample was taken using a non-probability sample with random sampling technique, so that 152 respondents were obtained. Data collection was obtained from the distribution of instruments on the perception of family resilience level and the level of involvement in parent involvement programs in PAUD and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with teachers in schools that were used as respondents. Descriptive statistics data processing was analyzed using Microsoft Exel and based on the results of the Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Descriptive statistics measured include mean and standard deviation. The results of the data analysis were categorized and the percentage was sought. For the scale of parental involvement in PAUD and family resilience of learners in PAUD units, 5 categories were made, namely very low, low, medium, high, and very high. Meanwhile, the teacher's perspective on parental involvement in children's education is made into 3 categories, namely low, medium, and high. The results of data analysis based on the identification of the level of resilience of the families of learners in the 8 PAUD institutions and the level of parental involvement in parental involvement programs organized by the 8 PAUD institutions are on average in the medium to high category. This indicates that parents of learners perceive their families to have been able to work together as a team to deal with various life difficulties quite effectively and are able to maximize the utilization of their protective factors to help overcome difficult situations or risk factors. Parents have played an adequate role in supporting and facilitating their children's lives and development.
War Against the Tamil Tigers: How Did Sri Lanka Win?
Authors:   International Strategic and Security Studies Programme (ISSSP), National Institute of Advanced Studies (NIAS), Bengaluru , Karnataka, India, Mayilvaganan M
Published: March 2024

The final Eelam War that was fought during 2006 to 2009, the Sri Lankan State for the first time in the history witnessed the crystallisation of the trends in favour of it against the Tamil tigers or LTTE (Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, also known as Tamil Tigers). With gradual liberation of north and eastern territory first that where under the clutches of LTTE for long and later dislodging Tigers’ command control, in three years’ timeline the Sri Lankan Armed Forces (SLAF) annihilated the Tigers entirely in May 2009. The victory of the SLAF brought three decade long armed conflict to an end that caused the death of over 100,000 and displacement of millions. While noticing the progress of the security forces and the way things unfolded, the pertinent questions that arise are: How did the Mahinda Rajapaksa government won the war? Was there a game plan with the government since the beginning of Eelam War IV? If so, what was that strategy? If not, how did they go ahead? Although there was no explicit publicly pronounced strategy by the Sri Lankan government for dislodging the Tigers but it appears their evolved game plan was broadly centered around ten points. They were: one, winning local constituency support; two, silence critics; three, build strong military, four, entice Karuna, five, shed conventional military methods; six, shrivel Tigers territories; seven, keep in loop but deter India; eight, diplomatic neutralise West; nine, curb Tigers’s international network; and finally, liquidate Tigers’ top leadership. The paper analyzes these aspects in details in this paper. Keywords: Sri Lanka, LTTE, Tamil Tigers, Eelam, Rajapaksa

This study investigates the transformative potential of repurposing non-biodegradable industrial by-products, specifically glass, brick, and sanitary ceramic waste, as alternative fillers for self-compacting mortars (SCM). Positioned within the framework of sustainability and enhanced performance, we conduct an in-depth comparative analysis against traditional limestone fillers to ascertain the efficacy of these unconventional materials. Employing a comprehensive methodology, we conduct spreading tests, evaluate heat of hydration, and assess mechanical resistance. Additionally, we delve into key durability parameters, including water-accessible porosity and capillarity, to comprehensively understand the nuanced effects of diverse fillers on the characteristics of the resulting self-compacting mortars. The experimental timeline unfolds through a series of assessments, measuring compressive and tensile strengths at strategic intervals - 2, 7, 28, 90, 270, and 365 days post-application. After 270 days of maturation, our study rigorously examines durability parameters. The findings unequivocally reveal a significant enhancement in SCM performance when incorporating glass, brick, and sanitary ceramic waste as fillers, outperforming conventional limestone fillers. Of notable significance is the consistent superiority of ceramic fillers across a spectrum of metrics. This research significantly contributes to the understanding of sustainable repurposing of industrial by-products in construction. Moreover, it highlights the pivotal role played by ceramic fillers in elevating rheological, mechanical, and durability attributes of self-compacting mortars. Beyond its immediate implications, this study opens new avenues for environmentally responsible and economically viable construction materials, promising further advancements and innovation in the field.

A condição de privação de liberdade é uma problemática da sociedade atual e pensar não só no aspecto punitivo, mas também de ressocialização é fundamental. Desse modo, o abuso de substâncias na população carcerária é triste realidade, que vai na via contrária dessa ressocialização, sendo imprescindível a análise de quais fatores influenciam essa problemática.   Caracterizar os fatores associados à utilização de psicotrópicos por pessoas privadas de liberdade. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa que teve suas buscas na biblioteca virtual de saúde, integrada pelas bases de dados: ELSILVER, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) e GOOGLE ACADÊMICO, após a inserção dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão foram selecionados 15 artigos para compor a amostra das produções científicas. Foram encontrados tanto fatores de risco anteriores ao encarceramento, quanto fatores inerentes à própria reclusão para uma maior propensão ao abuso de substâncias. A desigualdade social, um grande problema dentro das sociedades capitalistas e cosmopolitas atuais, alimenta substancialmente a problemática da criminalidade e pode explicar porque o recluso de nível socioeconômico mais baixo, ter baixa escolaridade e estudar apenas na prisão são mais presentes dentro dos centros prisionais. Além disso, como essa mesma desigualdade social também está atrelada ao problema do abuso de substâncias, as grandes taxas mais altas do uso de substâncias psicoativas dentro das penitenciárias ilustra o fenômeno da concentração de usuários de substâncias ilícitas na prisão Dessa forma, evidenciou-se a necessidade de maior investimento tanto da estrutura física das unidades penitenciárias quanto em qualificação profissional para a prestação de assistência específica para a população privada de liberdade, considerando as suas especificidades.

A Educação Permanente em Saúde (EPS) é uma abordagem educacional contínua e integrada, direcionada aos profissionais da saúde, com o objetivo de desenvolver competências, atualizar conhecimentos e promover a melhoria contínua da prática profissional ao longo de suas carreiras. Diante do exposto, o presente estudo buscou delinear o perfil de conhecimentos básicos autoavaliados por servidores da saúde da Rede de Saúde Interfederativa do Tocantins, Pará e Maranhão, antes e após curso de EPS. Trata-se de um estudo transversal e abordagem quantitativa descritiva, realizado em 2022, com servidores da Rede TOPAMA. Esta abrange um total de 110 municípios, sendo 65 no Norte do Tocantins, 22 no Sudeste do Pará e 23 no Sudoeste do Maranhão, destas, foram selecionados 8 municípios para receberem um curso de aperfeiçoamento em Gestão e Planejamento em Saúde Pública. A coleta de dados ocorreu em dois momentos, antes e após o curso. Participaram da pesquisa 161 servidores, sendo a maioria dos municípios de Ananás, Rondon do Pará, Santa Fé do Araguaia e Piraquê. Verificou-se que a maioria trabalhava em regime estatutário (54,3%) e atuava na Atenção Primária em Saúde (49,8%). No que diz respeito à utilização dos Sistemas de Informações em Saúde, antes e após a ação de EPS, verificou-se que o de Vigilância Sanitária-SIVISA foi o único cuja utilização modificou significativamente, onde 68,8% não utilizava, destes, 31,3% dos servidores passaram a utilizar após o curso (p=0,012). Os resultados indicam que a maioria dos servidores não teve acesso a cursos de integração ou EPS após a admissão, destacando uma lacuna significativa nas iniciativas de capacitação profissional. No entanto, a intervenção de EPS realizada demonstrou ser eficaz na melhoria do conhecimento e na utilização dos SIS.
