El análisis de regresión de las variables de estudio predice el autoconcepto.
Toward an Identity Theory of the Development of Chinese as a Heritage Language
Authors: He Agnes Weiyun
Published: February 2021

This paper proposes an identity theory of Chinese as a Heritage Language (hereafter CHL) development, based on the characteristics of the Chinese as a Heritage Language learner and drawing insights from Language Socialization, Second Language Acquisition, and Conversation Analysis. It posits that CHL development takes place in a three-dimensional framework with intersecting planes of time, space, and identity. Temporally, CHL development recontextualizes the past, transforms the present and precontextualizes the future. As such, it fosters rooted world citizenry with appreciation of and competence in Chinese language and culture. Spatially, it transforms local, independent communities into global, interdependent communities. A learner’s CHL development depends on the degree to which s/he is able to find continuity and coherence in multiple communicative and social worlds in time and space and to develop hybrid, situated identities and stances.
Voices from the Margin: Developing a Profile of Chinese Heritage Language
Learners in the FL Classroom
Authors: Weger-Guntharp Heather
Published: February 2021

While defining a heritage language (HL) learner is problematic, it is critical for how HL issues are framed. Underrepresented in the discussion are those learners who identify the HL as key to their development of self identity while having limited exposure to the HL in the home environment. This study investigates such students in the context of first semester Chinese classes at a U.S. university and draws on theories of motivation, HL learning, and social identity. Results suggest that a learner’s heritage is an important factor in that it affects the construction of a language learner’s identity and the coconstruction of motivation, and influences attitudes towards classroom activities. The study found that the complexity of individual backgrounds problematizes the identification of HL learners based on their home-language use or place of birth. Finally, the data reveal a HL learner classroom profile consisting of at least three interwoven components (self, teacher, and peer).
Heritage Learners in the Chinese Language Classroom: Home Background
Authors: Xiao Yun
Published: February 2021

Studies from information-processing and language comprehension research have reported that background knowledge facilitates reading and writing. By comparing Chinese language development of heritage students who had home background in Chinese language and culture with those who did not, this study found that heritage learners did significantly better than their non-heritage counterparts in speaking, listening, grammar, and sentence constructions, but not in reading comprehension, vocabulary learning, and Chinese character writing. These results suggest that heritage learners’ oral exposure to their home language does not necessarily lead them to acquire reading and writing skills more quickly than non-heritage learners. Home background knowledge of Chinese, a language with notoriously difficult orthography, may not support reading comprehension or vocabulary learning if that knowledge does not include sufficient exposure to the script system.
The Meaning of “Phenomenology”: Qualitative and Philosophical Phenomenological Research Methods
Authors: Williams Heath
Published: February 2021

I show some problems with recent discussions within qualitative research that centre around the “authenticity” of phenomenological research methods. I argue that attempts to restrict the scope of the term “phenomenology” via reference to the phenomenological philosophy of Husserl are misguided, because the meaning of the term “phenomenology” is only broadly restricted by etymology. My argument has two prongs: first, via a discussion of Husserl, I show that the canonical phenomenological tradition gives rise to many traits of contemporary qualitative phenomenological theory that are purportedly insufficiently genuine (such as characterisations of phenomenology as “what-its-likeness” and presuppositionless description). Second, I argue that it is not adherence to the theories and methods of prior practitioners such as Husserl that justifies the moniker “phenomenology” anyway. Thus, I show that the extent to which qualitative researchers ought to engage with the theory of philosophical phenomenology or adhere to a particular edict of Husserlian methodology ought to be determined by the fit between subject matter and methodology and conclude that qualitative research methods still qualify as phenomenological if they develop their own set of theoretical terms, traditions, and methods instead of importing them from philosophical phenomenology.
Ser feliz, é tudo o que se quer: saúde do trabalhador e precarização do trabalho
Authors: Campos Dinael Corrêa de
Published: February 2021

Trata-se da questão da precarização do trabalho e da contribuição que a psicanálise pode oferecer para a compreensão dos fenômenos que acometem o trabalhador nas organizações. Define as organizações como espaço privilegiado do processo civilizatório - além da sociedade, evidente -, ressaltando ainda a importância do resgate do sujeito e sua subjetividade. Exemplifica uma organização que em sua prática pode tornar a saúde do trabalhador cada vez mais comprometida e aponta o que as organizações do futuro podem oferecer ao trabalhador para que esse encontre prazer na realização do seu trabalho com significado. O autor discorre ainda sobre a equação dos 8 C proposta de Zimerman, explicando como tal proposição pode explicar o dia a dia organizacional. Por fim aponta a necessidade do resgate do trabalho como uma das possibilidades da promoção do Eros a Thanatos para a felicidade dos trabalhadores.
Joaquim Tenreiro – O processo de modernização do móvel Brasileiro
Authors: Nascimento Myrna de Arruda , De Lima André Moreira
Published: February 2021

O projeto tem como principal objetivo o estudo da experimentação com madeira para a construção de móveis e também o estudo de uma identidade visual particular, criada por Joaquim Tenreiro para o contexto do design brasileiro contemporâneo. Este artista e designer procurou projetar móveis ao longo da sua atuação profissional, buscando a leveza visual aliada às características da cultura brasileira, produzindo uma tradução dos movimentos artísticos e arquitetônicos que influenciaram a produção do design nacional (baseado até então no estilo europeu) a partir dos movimentos de vanguarda do século XX. Seu trabalho constrói uma ponte entre a Arte, o Design e a sociedade brasileira, visto que o autor investigava a representação visual do Brasil a partir da observação e análise da arquitetura, do design (principalmente em nível internacional), e das artes plásticas e aplica aspectos de linguagem e elementos gráficos no mobiliário, valorizando a estética proposta e sua utilidade prática.
Dinâmica hidrológica de superfície e espacialização da fruticultura no vale do Açu/RN
Authors: Patricio Kenned Rossino Pereira , Costa Ana Mônica de Britto , Da Silva Fernando Moreira
Published: February 2021

Este artigo enfoca a produtividade da fruticultura irrigada no Vale do Açu/RN, fazendo inicialmente uma análise espacial e posteriormente uma abordagem dos aspectos relacionados à sazonalidade hídrica da região. Os dados da pesquisa foram coletados junto ao IBGE e SUDENE. Na coleta metodológica fez-se uso do geoprocessamento e aplicação do software TerraView, além do balanço hídrico climático por Thornthwaite e Mather (1955). Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que o excedente hídrico se concentra nos meses de março e abril. Apresentaram que todos os municípios, desta região, produzem banana e mamão, com exceção de Itajá que produz apenas banana. Na análise da cultura de maior produtividade, destaca-se a da banana com uma média de 50 ton/ha, seguida pela do mamão com uma média de 40 ton/ha. Outro dado considerado refere-se a quadra chuvosa com potencial que se estende no período de fevereiro a maio. Com relação ao déficit hídrico ocorre nos meses de julho e se estende até janeiro. Entretanto, essa defasagem na produção decorrente da estiagem tem sido amenizado com o uso da irrigação, associado ao comportamento da temperatura e, principalmente da radiação solar, as condições de cultivo de frutas tropicais.
A Medialidade Hiperativa da Imagem Digital
Authors: Jacob Eduardo Louis
Published: February 2021

Na cultura digital não existe nenhum contexto claramente relacionado com a imagem, que se desterritorializa à medida que se propaga, descompromissada de produzir e impor um só sentido. A espacialidade da imagem já não remete a nada, somente a si própria e para a capacidade que o receptor terá que ter desenvolvido para decodificar a mensagem. A questão da medialidade digital é colocada com toda intensidade quando se verificam essas condições. O estudo da medialidade da imagem parte de necessidade mais ampla que é refletir sobre a experiência visual ante a multiplicação medial das imagens. A imagem não possui um sentido imanente, mas o colhe pelo modo como constrói sua visualidade e mediante contato com o ambiente que abriga essa visualidade, quando se misturam nessa construção o meio, o medium e o ambiente informado, estabelecendo um circuito de mediações, no qual se envolvem produtores e espectadores, a sociedade e a cultura, a imagem e seus significados. Dado o seu caráter qualitativo e teórico, o texto visa trabalhar com noções coletadas a partir de autores da cultura digital (cibercultura) e do debate acerca da imagem, imprimindo um caráter interdisciplinar ao texto.

Published: February 2021

A Dislexia é definida como uma defasagem na habilidade de leitura e escrita em relação à capacidade de compreensão e inteligência geral, e suposta educação formal de qualidade. Além dessas dificuldades, há concordância entre autores em relação a existência de um déficit metalinguístico envolvendo a dificuldade de nomeação rápida, a falta de consciência metafonológica e o déficit de memória de trabalho e dificuldade de sequencialiazação, fatores que dificultam a aquisição da leitura e da escrita. O objetivo do trabalho é comparar o desempenho em nomeação de figuras de crianças sem queixas escolares e crianças com Dislexia. Participaram da pesquisa 271 alunos do grupo controle sem histórico de repetência ou queixa escolar e 16 do grupo clínico, na faixa etária de 8 a 12 anos, com diagnóstico formalizado de dislexia. Utilizou-se o Teste de Nomeação de Figuras e realizou-se estatística descritiva (média) e inferencial (Mann-Whitney). Os resultados sugerem que os disléxicos de fato têm dificuldade ao nomear figuras corroborando dados da literatura. O estudo possibilitou ainda afirmar que algumas figuras são mais consensualmente nomeadas e que há itens do teste de figuras que devem ser melhor estudados. Estudos futuros poderão ainda discutir qualitativamente a natureza das dificuldades encontradas no grupo com dislexia. Estudos relacionados à déficits de categoria de figuras distintas devem ser implementados. O estudo aponta ainda para a possibilidade de, conhecidas as dificuldades de nomeação encontradas no grupo com dislexia, implementar projeto de reabilitação que envolva esta habilidade, bem como estudo de rastreio que possa, a partir da inabilidade de nomear figuras, oferecer suporte adicional com vistas a minimizar o impacto destas dificuldades no processo de aquisição de leitura e escrita.

Authors: Tirado-Kulieva Vicente , Miranda Zamora William Rolando , Leyva Povis Nelly Luz
Published: February 2021

El Plasma frío surge como una tecnología no térmica con distintas aplicaciones en los alimentos, con un mínimo efecto en su calidad. El objetivo de esta revisión fue analizar su potencial no destructivo en la mencionada industria, para la cual, se recopiló información de libros y artículos científicos de alto impacto, especialmente de los últimos años y fue estructurada enfatizando, la conservación alimentaria y otros campos del procesamiento. De acuerdo a las investigaciones consultadas, el plasma frío ha mostrado eficacia en la descontaminación microbiana e inactivación enzimática, en la mejora de las características sensoriales y fisicoquímicas de los alimentos, en la funcionalización del sistema de envasado y también en el tratamiento de aguas residuales generadas. El mecanismo de acción se basa en sus especies reactivas que, al tener contacto con los microorganismos y enzimas, los afecta hasta su muerte y degradación, respectivamente. En la interacción con los compuestos como el almidón, estas especies inducen en una mejora funcional significativa y preservan los termosensibles como las vitaminas. De igual manera ocurre con la carga microbiana y química de las aguas residuales, logrando su purificación. A pesar del enorme potencial detallado, al ser una tecnología relativamente nueva, se requiere de mayor investigación para suplir sus limitaciones, además de evaluar su uso sinérgicamente con otras técnicas para mejorar el proceso y sus resultados.
Integritas Seorang Pendidik
Authors: Sukarna Sukarna
Published: February 2021

Nilai kekristenan sudah mulai pudar, perkataan dan perbuatan yang dilakukan orang kristen sudah tidak ada bedanya dengan yang dilakukan orang yang bukan kristen. Bahkan tidak sedikit orang kristen yang memiliki kecenderungan menanggalkan atau menyembunyikan identitas kekristenannya supaya ia bisa masuk dan menjadi sama dengan dunia, dengan harapan ia bisa diterima secara utuh oleh dunia. Profesi pendidik, adalah profesi yang mulia. Di China, seorang pendidik dihargai setara dengan penghargaan yang diberikan kepada orang tua dan raja atau penguasa, bahkan seorang guru dihargai lebih tinggi dari penghargaan yang diberikan kepada seorang ayah, ibu, dan raja. Tetapi pada saat ini sepertinya telah terjadi “pergeseran nilai dan budaya” sehingga seorang guru atau pendidik tidak lagi dihormati seperti jaman dahulu, banyak guru telah kehilangan kharismanya sebagai seorang pendidik bangsa. Sifat keteladanan guru yang sudah dicontohkan oleh Sang Guru Agung, yaitu Yesus Kristus sangat sedikit didapatkan pada guru-guru kristen pada jaman ini. Integritas sebagai seorang guru kristen yang semula merupakan teladan hidup bagi murid-murid dan masyarakat sekitar, saat ini kurang tercermin lagi di dalam hidup keseharian para guru, baik di lingkungan sekolah, maupun dalam masyarakat luas.

Published: February 2021

El colgajo de músculo sartorio ha considerado la solapa como elección para la reconstrucción anatómica de la ingle de la herida, porque la proximidad a los vasos femorales permite un fácil acceso y la exposición a través de la misma incisión inguinal. El músculo se moviliza distalmente más allá del área de la reconstrucción vascular. Es entonces dividido lo más cerca posible a la ilíaca supero- anterior, columna vertebral y se hace girar en sentido medial para cubrir las estructuras del triángulo femoral.  Al girar el músculo 180 ° en su eje medial, los haces vasculares mediales se conservan. La parte tendinosa del músculo se asegura entonces al ligamento inguinal, cubriendo de este modo los vasos femorales. Se colocan suturas adicionales en el lado medial del musculo girado para asegurarlo a los tejidos blandos adyacentes; para de este modo secuestrar completamente las estructuras vasculares femorales y los injertos. Un drenaje de succión cerrado se coloca en el antiguo cauce del músculo sartorio.
Adoption of Small Scale Coastal Cage Fish Farming in the Southwest Coast of India: Opportunities and Challenges
Authors: Natarajan Aswathy , Joseph Imelda
Published: February 2021

Cage fish farming is an emerging aquaculture technology in India. It is a low impact farming practice with high economic returns. ICAR-CMFRI in India had developed cost effective technologies for cage farming and popularised the technology through front line demonstrations in the marine and coastal waters in the country. We analysed the opportunities and constraints of coastal cage fish farming in Kerala state, in the south west coast of India. Economic indicators of selected farms revealed that cage farming is an economic viable technology in the coastal waters earning an average net profit of USD3,914 and internal rate of return (IRR) of 68%. Coastal water pollution, inadequate financial capital, climate change impacts, high feed cost and lack of insurance facilities were reported as the major constraints in cage fish farming. The study indicated that cage fish farming has great potential for augmenting fish production and coastal livelihoods and emphasized the need for stringent regulations for mitigating coastal water pollution, institutional linkages for financial inclusion and insurance facilities for upscaling the technology.
Research Progress on the Polymeric Immunoglobulin Receptor (pIgR) in Fish
Authors: Xia Hu , Yang Pinhong , Liu Liangguo , Luo Yushuang , Wang Wenbin , Cheng Kezhong , Ye Liang , Hou Dong , Zhao Jiemei , Wu Xian
Published: February 2021

There are a large number of pathogens in the water where fish live, and the

mucosal-associated lymphoid tissues (MALTs), such as skin, gill and intestine,

are the first contact parts when pathogens infect fish. The secreted mucus of

these tissues constitutes the first barrier for fish against the invasion of

external pathogens. Mucosal immunity can identify and neutralize pathogens

and induces immunocytes to devour pathogens and the like. As a key factor in

the mucosal immune system, the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR)

is capable of mediating the transport and secretion of polymeric

immunoglobulins towards mucus. The effective secretion of the pIgR is

necessary for polymeric immunoglobulins (pIg) to exert mucosal defence and

plays a significant role in fish immunity. With the deepening of research into

fish immunoglobulins, the pIgR has become a research hotspot. The molecular

structure, genetic structure and expression pattern of the pIgR and the

important role it plays in mucosal immunity were summarized in this study,

which contributed to a deeper understanding of fish mucosal immunity and

laid a foundation for further exploration of the action mechanism and

functions of the pIgR in fish.

Published: February 2021

The presence of arterial hypertension (AH) leads to the development of cognitive dysfunction, in the genesis of which a significant role is assigned to vascular factors. Aim. To study the state of cognitive function and associated vascular factors in patients with uncontrolled AH. Materials and methods. The research involved 88 patients with uncontrolled AH (UAH) — group 1 (median age 60, men — 39%) and 46 patients with controlled AH (CAH) — group 2 (median age 59, men — 41%). Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). There were studied vascular factors: thickness of the intima-media complex (IMC), pulse wave velocity (PWV), microcirculation flow index (MFI) and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) concentrations. For the statistical analysis the following criteria were used: Student t-test, Mann—Whitney test. Multifactorial linear regression analysis was performed in groups. Results. In Group 1, there was a lower cognitive function index by MoCA — 24 [22; 26] points against 26 [25; 27] points in Group 2 (p = 0.002). IMC thickness was higher in Group 1 than in Group 2 (1.1 [0.90; 1.20] mm vs 1.0 [0.80; 1.10] mm, p = 0.042), concentration of ADMA was higher in Group 1 (0.73 ± 0.21 µmol/l vs 0.65 ± 0.1 µmol/l, p = 0.02), MFI was higher in Group 2 (30.6 [27.1; 34.4] perf. units vs. 22.8 [18.6; 26.1] perf. units, р < 0.001). No differences between the groups were found in PWV. In regression analysis, the following factors had a statistically significant effect on MoCA scores: in Group 1 — age, IMC thickness, ADMA and MFI; in Group 2 — age and glomerular filtrate rate. Conclusion. Patients with uncontrolled AH have more pronounced cognitive dysfunction than those with controlled AH, which is associated with increased IMC thickness, impaired microcirculation and increased ADMA concentration.

Diagnostic efficiency of breast cancer screening remains one of the most important issues in oncology and radiology. Artificial intelligence technologies are widely used in clinical medicine to effectively solve a number of technological and diagnostic problems. The aim. To develop segmentation neural network model for breast plain radiographs analysis with subsequent study of its clinical effectiveness. Materials and methods. The artificial intelligence-based system was developed to analyze X-ray mammography, аnd included a segmentation neural network with the U-Net architecture, a classification neural architecture ResNet50 with outputting the result using gradient boosting. 15486 X-ray cases were used for training, estimation of diagnostic accuracy and validation of the developed segmental model. All cases were labeled in specially developed software environment LabelCMAITech. The segmentation accuracy was determined by Intersection over Union (IoU) similarity coefficient, the probability of malignancy was calculated using the binary classification metrics. Results. The developed system is represented by a segmentation model based on neural network architecture. The model allows, with high accuracy of 0.8176 and higher, at threshold values on the output neurons of the network of 0.1 and 0.15, to localize X-ray findings that have diagnostic value for determining the likelihood of the presence of breast cancer signs in an X-ray mammographic study — focus, architecture distortion, local asymmetry, calcifications. When comparing the results of machine segmentation and marking of images by a radiologist, it was found that the model is not inferior to the doctor in the accuracy of determining the formations, extra-focal calcifications and intraglandular lymph nodes. Conclusion. The results of this study allow considering the model as an intelligent assistant to a radiologist in the analysis of screening mammographic cases.

POST-KOLONYAL KADIN YURTTAŞLIĞININ LİBERAL FEMİNİZME ELEŞTİRİSİ
Authors: ÇAKIL DİNÇER Gülşen
Published: February 2021

Kadınların hak arayışlarına ilişkin mücadele örnekleri daha önceki yüzyıllarda görülse de feminist mücadele, teorisini 18. yüzyılda oluşturmaya başlamıştır. Kadın hareketi Avrupa’da görünür oluşunu Fransız Devrimi’ni de ortaya çıkaran siyasal ve toplumsal değişmelere borçludur. Fransız Devrimi’yle birlikte öne çıkan yurttaşlık tartışmalarında hak ve özgürlükler önemli yer tutar. Bu dönemde hak ve özgürlüklerinin genişletilmesini talep eden kadınlar da tartışmanın taraflarından olmayı başarmışlardır. Fransız Devrimi’yle başlayan süreçten günümüze feminist yaklaşım, kadınların yaşadığı ataerkil baskıları anlatmaya çalışıp bunun için politikalar üretme uğraşısında olsa da ele alınan sorunlar ve çözümler aşamasında kendi içerisinde farklılaşmalar yaşar. Bu çalışma post-kolonyal kadın yurttaşlık tartışmalarının izini sürerek kadın yurttaşlık tartışmalarının başlangıcı olan liberal feminizmle ilişkisini ortaya koymayı hedeflemektedir. Bu bağlamda öncelikle hak ve özgürlük mücadelesinin ilk örneklerini sergileyen liberal feministlerin talepleri değerlendirilecektir. Kültürel feministlerin söz konusu taleplerin yurttaşlık tartışmalarında “kadınlığı” ikincilleştirdiği eleştirisiyle gelişen ve kadını doğurganlığına indirgeyen “anne-yurttaş” kavramı da ele alınacaktır. Son olarak kadınların otantikliği koruma görevleri çerçevesinde ilerleyen post-kolonyal mücadelelerde kadınların yurttaşlığına ilişkin görüşlere değinilecektir.

Authors: Matunga Denish Ateto , Ngugi Patrick Karanja , Odhiambo Romanous
Published: February 2021

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to establish the relationship between supplier relationship management and implementation level of public procurement regulatory framework in the devolved governments in Kenya.

Methodology:  The study used descriptive design. The population targeted was 47 devolved governments in Kenya.   The study adopted census because of the small size of the population. A structured questionnaire was used as a data collection tool. The study also undertook a pilot test on the instrument’s reliability and validity in the 3 counties; Nyamira, Kisii, Homa-Bay Counties where nine (9) respondents were engaged in the pilot study. Cronbach’s co-efficient Alpha and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to measure the reliability and validity respectively.  The data was cleaned and coded then entered into SPSS 25 to be analyzed. The use of descriptive and inferential statistics for data analysis was considered. Study engaged the key informers from the 44 county Governments who positively responded hence achieving 100% response rate. The statistical tests were also done in the study. Presentation of data was in form of charts and tables as deemed appropriate. The study also used ANOVA to analyze the degree of relationship between the variables in the study.

Results: The findings obtained indicated that there was significant relationship between supplier relationship management on level of implementation of public procurement regulatory framework in the devolved governments in Kenya. The findings indicated that for every unit of supplier relationship management the value of implementation level of public procurement regulatory framework in the devolved governments in Kenya changes with a positive significance increase of 1.105 in the presence of a moderator.

Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study recommended that the devolved governments functions should embrace supplier’s commitment level on quality of goods and services in their operations such as information sharing between the buyer, improve on their commitment on suppliers’ payment, increase commitment level in supplier partnership and development to improve the supplier’s commitment level and value addition or creation in service delivery.
¿FIN DEL DERECHO A INDEMNIZACIÓN POR CESE DEL PERSONAL LABORAL INTERINO AL SERVICIO DE LA ADMINISTRACIÓN? LA STS (SOCIAL) DE 13 DE MARZO DE 2019
Authors: CABRERA RODRÍGUEZ JOSÉ
Published: February 2021

El célebre asunto Diego Porras abrió la posibilidad de un derecho indemnizatorio automático por cese al personal laboral interino de la Administración pública. El planteamiento de una segunda cuestión prejudicial por el Tribunal Supremo y la resolución final del asunto en casación han desmentido esta posibilidad y han rectificado lo que pareció ser un malentendido inicial sobre el régimen indemnizatorio del contrato de interinidad. Sin embargo, una lectura detenida de la sentencia dictada en casación demuestra que lo más relevante del pronunciamiento no son las cuestiones jurídicas que zanja, sino las que deja abiertas. Entre ellas, las consecuencias que tendría el cese irregular de un trabajador interino y la de los derechos indemnizatorios del declarado «indefinido no fijo».

Hala nola, bitarteko langile baten lanpostu-uzte irregularrak izango lituzkeen ondorioak edo langile «ez finko mugagabetzat» jo den langilearen kalte-ordainerako eskubideak.

The notorious case Diego Porras opened a path to an automatic right to severance payment on termination of employment for the temporary staff in the Administrations. The second reference for a preliminary ruling by the Supreme Court and the final ruling on the case in appeal has denied that possibility and rectified what it seemed to be just a misconception of the compensation regime for provisional contracts. Nevertheless, a detailed reading of the judgment on appeal shows that the most relevant part of the ruling are not the issues settled but those left open. Among them, the consequences arising from an irregular termination of employment of a temporary employee and the rights to compensation of that worker that is considered not permanent but with an open-ended contract.
LA FIESTA DE LOS TOROS COMO VALOR CULTURAL COMÚN O EL ARTE DE LIDIAR CON LAS COMUNIDADES AUTÓNOMAS AL AMPARO DE LA CONCURRENCIA COMPETENCIAL EN MATERIA DE CULTURA
Authors: RIDAO I MARTÍN JOAN
Published: February 2021

La doctrina del TC sobre la fiesta de los toros, si bien admite la
competencia autonómica en materia de cultura, protección de los animales y espectáculos
públicos como títulos que habilitan para regular los espectáculos taurinos
en Cataluña e Illes Balears, sostiene que la prohibición o la regulación de
aspectos esenciales de los mismos, orientada a evitar la muerte o el sufrimiento
animal, invade la competencia estatal en materia de patrimonio cultural, prevalente
en el marco de la concurrencia no excluyente de competencias estatales y
autonómicas en materia de cultura ex art. 149.2 CE, encaminada a la preservación
de valores culturales comunes, y que autoriza al Estado a intervenir de forma intensa,
como ya ha hecho el legislador estatal, para favorecer un tratamiento general
y una acción pública supraordenada que garantice la recognoscibilidad y pervivencia
de la corrida de toros como la conocemos modernamente.

Zezenketei buruzko Konstituzio Auzitegiaren doktrinak kulturaren,
animalien babesaren eta ikuskizun publikoen gaineko eskumen autonomikoa
onartzen du, eta, hala, Katalunian eta Balear Uharteetan zezen-ikuskizunak arautzeko
gaikuntza ematen du. Hala ere, berariaz zehazten du animaliaren heriotza
edo sufrimendua saiheste aldera horien funtsezko alderdi batzuk debekatu edo
arautzean inbaditu egiten dela estatuak kultura-ondarearen gainean duen eskumena,
kulturaren gaineko estatuko eta erkidegoetako eskumenak modu ez baztertzailean
batzen diren esparruan gailentzen dena, kultura-balio komunak zaintze aldera.
Halaber, baimena ematen dio Estatuari esku hartze zuzena izateko, Estatuko
legegileak egin duen gisan, zezen-korridaren (modernoki ezagutzen dugun eran)
aitorpena eta biziraupena bermatuko dituen ekintza publiko antolatua eta tratamendu
orokorra sustatu asmoz.

The doctrine of the TC on the celebration of the bulls, although
it admits the autonomic competence in the matter of culture, protection of the
animals and public spectacles like qualifications that qualify to regulate the
bullfighting spectacles in Catalonia and Illes Balears, maintains that the prohibition
or the regulation of essential aspects thereof, aimed at preventing death or animal suffering, invades the state competence in matters of cultural heritage, prevalent
in the context of the non-exclusive concurrence of state and regional competences
in culture ex art. 149.2 CE, aimed at preservation of common cultural values,
and that authorizes the State to intervene intensively, as the state legislator has
already done, to favor a general treatment and a superordinated public action that
guarantees the knowledge and survival of the bullfight as we know it modernly.
A munkahelyi egészségsérelmek kompenzációjának felelősségbiztosítási modellje Magyarországon és az Európai Unióban
Authors: Papp Nikolett
Published: February 2021

"One of the most important issues in the design of national work injury compensation systems is how the two main possible routes of liability relate: on the one hand, the non-tort compensation (social security) model and, on the other, the tort compensation (employers’ liability under civil or labour law) model.
In the Hungarian system of accident compensation in labour law, the employee is primarily entitled to certain benefits within the framework of social insurance and may claim damages in excess of this in damages lawsuits.
Employers’ liability schemes can be supplemented by voluntary liability insurance solutions. Liability insurance contracts protect both parties: employers are protected against unplanned payments, possibly large amounts of compensation, and the outcome of potentially unpredictable compensation lawsuits, while it means guaranteed coverage for the employee in case of damage.
The introduction of compulsory liability insurance for employers is an issue that arises from time to time. In some countries, employers are required to take out liability insurance, such as the United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Austria. In insurance-based models, the route of compensation plays a marginal role. In Hungary, the penetration of liability insurance is low; however, there is currently no legislative intention to make liability insurance more extensive or mandatory for employers.
In general, however, there is no universal model for accident compensation in labour law. There is no such benchmark at the European Union level either, and it can be said that there is no explicit intention to fully harmonize Member State regulations.
In this study, I examine the consequences of the mandatory or wider application of liability insurance, the regulatory concepts that exist, and the role that the European Union plays in regulating the issue."
Munkaerőpiaci elvárások a romániai IT-szektorban
Authors: Tőkés Gyöngyvér Erika
Published: February 2021

The present study follows the relationship between the employer brand identity of Romanian IT companies and the employee expectations of the workforce employed in the IT sector. The expectations of employees interested in the Romanian IT sector were summarized on the basis of a review of the international and Romanian literature. The examination of the employer brand identity of Romanian IT companies was based on a combined content analysis of the websites of 110 Romanian IT companies. Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that the talented workforce is looking for a job where its employee expectations are met to the greatest extent. Results also show that almost half of the Romanian IT companies barely take into account employee needs from different segments of the workforce. The study can be a starting point for brand managers working on employer brand design and development in the IT sector.
PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE WITHIN CONTEMPORARY PHYSICS
Authors: Simanov Aleksander
Published: February 2021

The methodological function of philosophy within physics is realized primarily in a constructive and normative-regulatory form, since physics from the very beginning is forced to use non-theoretical, philosophical positions precisely because of the ultimate generality of the concepts underlying it. Direct experimental verification of mod-ern physical concepts seems impossible at this stage of the development of science due to the limited energy and technical resources of mankind. Therefore, from the methodological point of view, we should focus on the devel-opment of indirect empirical methods.

UNKNOWN HEROES OF PHILOSOPHICAL DISCOURSE: S. HODGSON AND G.F. STOUT
Authors: Yuriev Roman
Published: February 2021

S. Hodgson and G.F. Stout were remarkable, but insufficiently studied philosophers and presidents of the early Aristotelian society. The report is about their conceptions which despite almost unknown in the contemporary philosophy make us pay attention to them. For example S. Hodgson’s philosophy was the subject of discussion about its place in the phenomenological movement. G.F. Stout’s philosophy is interesting not only because he was the G.E. Moore’s and B. Russel’s lecturer. His philosophy was arguably ascribed to idealistic direction in British philosophy of XIX–XX century. There are few contemporary studies where the influence of G.F. Stout on the emergence of analytical philosophy is considered. The report will consider the metaphilosophical role of "common sense in G.F. Stout’s philosophy.
NARRATIVE APPROACH IN THE HISTORY OF PHILOSOPHY
Authors: Karimov Vitaliy
Published: February 2021

The report is devoted to a narrative approach in history of philosophy. The narrative method opposes, but does not compete with traditional work of the history of philosophy. The dialogue way of writing and reading philo-sophical texts is one ofthe most suitable objects for a narrative approach and is able to give a new look at the problems facing the history of philosophy, since it gives the reader an opportunity to engage in dialogue and in-teract with the author. Thus, texts written in the dialogue genre in earlier eras could without prejudice to their content and understanding, be moved into a contemporary context and involved in a dialogue with modernity.
THE CONTEXTUALIST REVOLUTION IN HISTORIOGRAPHY OF THE EARLY MODERN PHILOSOPHY
Authors: Kaufman Igor
Published: February 2021

For many decades the methodology of “Rational Reconstruction”, which was also labeled as the appropriation-ism or presentism, dominates the Early modern philosophy scholarship. In the core of the methodology was the claims that one can read the Early Modern thinkers as 'colleagues' to the Modern Philosophy and the “Whig” interpretation of relation between the Early modern science and philosophy. Recently, the Early modern philoso-phy scholarship witnesses the methodological transformation that Ch. Mercer proposed to term as the “Contextu-alist Revolution”. In my paper I briefly contours the “Rational Reconstruction” methodology. Then I discuss the main claims of the Contextualist methodology and describe the innovative revisions results that it introduced brought in the Early modern scholarship.
