Authors: Messias Elvis Rezende , Severino Antônio Joaquim , Mancilha Mariana Silva , Petraglia Izabel Cristina
Published: September 2023

O artigo, oriundo de pesquisa bibliográfica, objetiva apresentar uma introdução à epistemologia da complexidade e à transdisciplinaridade, destacando seus contributos à investigação educacional, segundo a obra de Edgar Morin. Partimos da exposição da crítica complexa aos fundamentos da ciência clássica, seguida de uma problematização sobre o que o pensamento complexo entende por método e metodologia. Apresentamos, na sequência, os principais operadores do pensamento complexo e os acenos quanto à imbricação entre complexidade, transdisciplinaridade, epistemologia e educação. Distinguimos ainda racionalidade, racionalismo e racionalização, sintetizando, por fim, os princípios da inteligibilidade complexa. Os resultados nos permitem entrever que a epistemologia complexa e a transdisciplinaridade se entrelaçam e oferecem singular contribuição à educação contemporânea e à constituição dos diversos saberes humanos, na medida em que possibilitam maior conscientização da multidimensionalidade do real, dos limites e possibilidades da compreensão e da condição humana, bem como da percepção de que um conhecimento evidente, claro e distinto, que pretende dissipar todas as dúvidas e paradoxos existentes, não parece ainda ser acessível ao ser humano.

Published: September 2023

A facile approach was employed for the synthesis of cobalt oxide nanorods (NRs) using cobalt nitrate, sodium oxalate and ethylene glycol as precursors via a hydrothermal process. The hydrothermal conditions, such as temperature and time, were varied to optimize the morphological characteristics of the NRs. After undergoing filtration, washing, and drying, the resulting material was characterized using several techniques, including field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Our findings reveal that the NRs exhibit diverse morphologies, depending on the hydrothermal conditions, with the smallest aspect ratio observed when prepared at 200 °C for 24 hours. In addition, we investigated the gas sensing capabilities of the NRs to ammonia under these conditions.
Efeitos do capital intelectual e de sistemas de
controle gerencial no desempenho organizacional
mediados pela cooperação em sistema franchising
Authors: Vesco Delci Grapégia Dal , Beuren Ilse Maria
Published: September 2023

Este estudo analisou os efeitos do capital intelectual e dos sistemas de controle gerencial (SCG) no desempenho, mediados pela cooperação em sistema franchising, na presunção de que aqueles, na condição de antecedentes, possam melhorar o desempenho por meio da cooperação, visto que os contratos são firmados com esse propósito. Os resultados mostraram que o capital intelectual (humano, estrutural e relacional) promove a melhoria do desempenho e da cooperação em sistema franchising. Da mesma forma, SCG (sistemas de avaliação de desempenho e de socialização) se traduzem em desempenho e cooperação. Entretanto, não foi observado efeito mediador da cooperação nas relações do capital intelectual e dos SCG com o desempenho. Uma survey foi realizada com 112 gestores de revendas de combustíveis, e para testar as hipóteses aplicou-se modelagem de equações estruturais. Concluiuse que a cooperação não potencializou os efeitos do capital intelectual e dos SCG no desempenho do sistema franchising investigado. Este achado suscita mais pesquisas por destoar do propósito da cooperação preconizado na literatura e esperado em um contrato de franquia.
Rozwiązania na rzecz integracji dzieci i młodzieży w szkołach krakowskich po wybuchu wojny w Ukrainie. Wnioski z badania pilotażowego
Authors:   Uniwersytet Pedagogiczny im. KEN w Krakowie, Stoch Magdalena
Published: September 2023

The article presents the conclusions of a pilot survey study conducted in Cracow in September 2022. The author makes a diagnosis of educational activities undertaken in the municipality of Cracow, in the period from February 25 to June 30, 2022 (in the first four months from the outbreak of the war in Ukraine). She confronts them with the conclusions of in-depth interviews conducted with experts in the field of integration. Solutions regarded as “good practices”, such as additional Polish language lessons, psychological and pedagogical assistance, educational departments and intercultural assistantship, are rated the best. However, children and young people with refugee experience have little chance of learning the language, culture and geography of their country of origin. We can also indicate a few critical moments of the integration process (so-called rich points) that generate tensions in intercultural communication. These include ambivalent attitudes towards migrant children, youth and their parents. On the one hand, representatives of the majority of society show empathy and provide real help, on the other hand, they accuse migrants of being demanding and indecisive. The most difficult situation is currently faced by young people who do not know the Polish language and are forced to take exams in this language at the end of subsequent stages of education. This age group is particularly vulnerable to marginalization. The conclusions from the study also indicated areas requiring further, in-depth evaluation.
NOVOS RISCOS AOS DIREITOS HUMANOS E INTERESSES DAS CRIANÇAS: BRASIL COMO ALERTA ÀS DEMOCRACIAS
Authors: Lins Heloísa A. Matos
Published: September 2023

Neste ensaio, é apresentado um mapeamento cartográfico (de processos, eventos, fluxos e afetos como linhas de força em um território), considerando o fortalecimento do espectro político das direitas radicais e consequentes retrocessos e subversões adultocêntricas nos significados de “melhor interesse” das crianças, centralmente. São discutidos alguns acontecimentos noticiados pelas mídias tradicionais/sociais, casos de violência entre crianças devido à disputa eleitoral para a Presidência da República, violência física de adultos contra crianças também por motivos políticos, além de outros casos que evidenciam uma política autoritária de subjetivação em ascensão e mudanças na dinâmica cultural. Os acontecimentos e as análises tecidas, a partir dos atravessamentos do militarismo sobre as subjetividades infantis, convergem no sentido de nos alertar para que as crianças passem a nos guiar nestas iminentes tarefas civilizatórias e epistemológicas. É possível que sigamos por esses caminhos, por meio de teorias relacionais e também por meio de nossos afetos como pesquisadores/as.
“SEM NEGROS NÃO PODE HAVER OURO, AÇÚCAR NEM TABACO”: O PAPEL DA RAÇA NA ECONOMIA DO SISTEMA INTERNACIONAL MODERNO
Authors: Vasconcelos Erica Paula , Mendes ​ Virgínio Vicente
Published: September 2023

O presente trabalho objetiva denotar o papel da raça na economia do sistema internacional moderno, tendo como pano de fundo o sistema escravista mercantil e agrícola. Para isso, entende-se que a escravidão e o capitalismo racial foram fatores usados pelos colonos para marcar a superioridade do homem branco através da dominação e exploração. Nesse sentido, o principal argumento do trabalho é de que a raça foi utilizada para fomento da base lucrativa para o sistema colonial através da comercialização de negro, açúcar, ouro e o tabaco para a Europa. De modo a desenvolver o seu argumento, o artigo está estruturado em duas seções. A primeira seção irá delinear sobre a simbiose da relação entre raça, escravidão e capitalismo racial no sistema comercial marítimo triangular de escravos e produtos nas navegações transatlânticas e como se deu a expansão desse sistema. A segunda seção irá evidenciar a operacionalização do capitalismo racial e sua riqueza concentrada no negro e na região do nordeste brasileiro para a continuação deste sistema econômico no sistema internacional. O debate presente neste trabalho contribui para que processo gerados pelo capitalismo devem ser analisados de forma multidimensional, demonstrando a viabilização de outros horizontes emancipatórios.
Quantitative analysis of desiccation crack evolution based on digital image correlation
Authors: Chen Aijun , Li Chaohua , Ding Chuanyang
Published: September 2023

Red clay is prone to cracking in desiccating environments, with criss-cross cracks compromising soil structures and inducing slope instability. Under natural hygrothermal conditions, a desiccation test of red clay slurry was performed with a self-made device and digital image correlation (DIC) technology to study the crack evolution and quantitatively analyse the relationships between moisture content, displacement, strain and cracks. The results showed that cracks were usually initiated by subdividing and intersecting with other cracks at right angles. The main cracks were initiated first and had the longest duration; the stabilised main cracks were longer and wider than secondary cracks. DIC technology was used to monitor crack evolution dynamically. Based on the areas of strain concentration, the locations of early-initiated cracks and propagation trends could be preliminarily predicted. The failure strain in cracking was related to the moisture content, while crack evolution was related to the Atterberg limits of the red clay. The soil shrinkage exhibited anisotropic behaviour, with greater vertical shrinkage at the soil clod centre compared with the edges. In contrast, the horizontal displacement and maximum principal strain at the soil clod centre were smaller than those at the edges. These findings contribute to providing guidance for formulating engineering geological hazard control measures.

Published: September 2023

Objective: This study aimed to establish real prospects for teaching foreign languages, taking into account the features of Generations X, Y, and Z to enhance the quality of education. Methodology: The study employed a communicative approach to foreign language education and utilized qualitative research methods, including observation, analysis, and generalization, to examine the effectiveness of this methodology. Results: The study highlighted several learning approaches used to bring different generations into teams. It was revealed that the contemporary era of university students, living and developing in the age of digital technologies and tools, has specific emotional, psychological, and conditioning characteristics that necessitate the use of creative and innovative forms and methods of teaching foreign languages, and in the future, their introduction into the educational process. Discussion and Conclusions: Knowledge of the composition and content of such features largely determines the ability of teachers to comprehensively and purposefully explain the educational material to students. In turn, this will help students master a foreign language at a higher quality level, taking into account their professional exposure. The preceding predetermined the relevance of the research and worked correspondingly.

Employee wellness is central to meaningful engagement in work occupations and contributes positively to conflict resolution, stress management and productivity in the workplace. An employee who experiences wellness in the workplace will thus act accordingly with confidence; demonstrate emotional regulation skills, creativity, and resilience. This sentiment is supported by the South African Framework for the Employee Health and Wellness in Public Service, which stives to support healthy and productive employees. Employee wellness manifests through physical, intellectual, social, emotional, spiritual, moral, ethical and occupational well-being.
Serial measurements of SIRS criteria to identify unique phenotypes of sepsis: A Microbiologic Approach
Authors: Harman S Gill , Phuong H Nguyen , Jada M English , Kayla A Fay , Elisha Fleig Yin MPAS , Jaskirat Kaur Gill , Todd D Morrell
Published: September 2023

Introduction: The utility of serial scoring systems in identifying distinct sepsis phenotypes remains unknown. Methods: Eligible adults were classified into culture-positive (Cx+) and culture-negative (Cx-) groups alongside pre-defined culture subgroups. Average SIRS & SEP (novel scoring system) scores were calculated at t = 0 and hours 3,6,12 & 24 before and after t = 0. The primary outcome was a difference in SIRS/SEP scores amongst those that were Cx+ or Cx- at any time point. Secondary outcomes were comparing total and component SIRS/SEP scores in microbiologic subgroups over serial time points. Results: 4,701 Cx+ and 3254 Cx- patients met eligibility criteria. Statistically significant differences were seen in the average SIRS score between Cx + and Cx- groups at hours six (Cx+ 1.40+1.04 vs Cx- 1.35+1.01) & 12 (Cx+ 0.95+0.95 vs Cx- 0.90+0.90) after t = 0. The hematologic, urologic, and neurologic subgroups had significant differences at numerous time points before and after T = 0. Similar findings were observed with the SEP scores. Cx+ and Cx- groups (including subgroups) consistently doubled both SIRS/SEP scores before t = 0 with an eventual return to baseline values after T = 0 but at different gradients. Conclusion: Significant differences in SIRS/SEP scores were seen in Cx+ & Cx- patients at sequential time points. This microbiologic approach in homogenous culture cohorts has the potential to identify distinct phenotypes of sepsis efficiently and practically. Consistent increases in SIRS/SEP scores before t = 0 and sequential decreases after t = 0 may allow for early detection, intervention, and provision for real-time monitoring of therapeutic responses in patients with concerns for sepsis.
FRANSA İŞGALİ ÖNCESİ CEZAYİR’İN DURUMU (1792-1830)
Authors: KALKAN Gökçen
Published: September 2023

Cezayir’in Osmanlı hâkimiyeti altındaki dönemi, Cezayir tarihinde derin izler bırakan önemli bir dönemdir. Cezayir, Osmanlı hâkimiyeti öncesinde birbirinden bağımsız birkaç krallık ve emirliğin oluştuğu siyaseten parçalı bir coğrafi yapıya sahipken, Osmanlı hâkimiyeti ile birlikte kendi coğrafi ve siyasi birliğini sağlayabilmiştir. Osmanlı öncesi Cezayir’de var olan emirlikler ve çeşitli siyasi oluşumlar, Batı Akdeniz'de etkilerini ortaya koyan güçlü bölgesel devletler olarak ortaya çıkamamışlardır. Ancak Osmanlı döneminde Cezayir’in siyasi ve coğrafi birliğinin sağlanmasıyla bu durum değişiklik göstermeye başlamıştır. İstikrarlı durum, 17. yy’ın ortalarına kadar devam etmiştir. Osmanlı’nın son dönemlerinde Cezayir’de yaşanmış olan iç anlaşmazlıklar, Cezayir’deki Osmanlı yönetiminin yozlaşması, bölgedeki isyan ve itaatsizliklerin çoğalması ve batıl inançlara dayanan bir din anlayışı benimseyen tasavvufi bir geleneğin ortaya çıkması gibi sebepler, Cezayir’in Akdeniz’deki gücünü git gide kaybetmesine yol açmıştır.
Cezayir’in kendi içinde yaşadığı ve çeşitli alanlara yansıyan çöküşü, eyaletin Fransa tarafından işgal edilmesini kolaylaştıran tüm temel koşulların oluşmasını sağlamıştır. Cezayir’de özellikle otorite alanında ortaya çıkan acziyet, Fransa’nın uyguladığı ve uzun süre devam ettirdiği deniz kuşatmasını kıramamasına sebep olmuştur. Ardından Fransa’nın başlattığı işgal harekâtı başarılı olmuş ve Cezayir’de yaklaşık üç yüz yıl hüküm süren Osmanlı hâkimiyeti son bulmuştur. Asırlar boyunca Cezayir’e yönelik bütün saldırı ve işgal girişimlerini boşa çıkaran güçlü Osmanlı donanması ve deniz birlikleri, bu işgali engellemeye dönük ciddi bir direniş gösterememiştir.
Bu araştırmada, Cezayir’de Osmanlı hâkimiyetinin sona ermesi ve 1830’da Fransız işgaline uğramasını kolaylaştıran iç meseleler, değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuştur.

Multi-feature spatial distribution alignment enhanced domain adaptive method for tool condition monitoring
Authors: Hei Zhendong , Sun Bintao , Wang Gaonghai , Lou Yongjian , Zhou Yuqing
Published: September 2023

Transfer learning (TL) has been successfully implemented in tool condition monitoring (TCM) to address the lack of labeled data in real industrial scenarios. In current TL models, the domain offset in the joint distribution of input feature and output label still exists after the feature distribution of the two domains is aligned, resulting in performance degradation. A multiple feature spatial distribution alignment (MSDA) method is proposed, Including Correlation alignment for deep domain adaptation (Deep CORAL) and Joint maximum mean difference (JMMD). Deep CORAL is employed to learn nonlinear transformations, align source and target domains at the feature level through the second-order statistical correlations. JMMD is applied to improve domain alignment by aligning the joint distribution of input features and output labels. ResNet18 combining with bidirectional short-term memory network and attention mechanism is developed to extract the invariant features. TCM experiments with four transfer tasks were conducted and demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.
Built-in Analog Automatic Controls for Small Robots
Authors: Dembitsky N. L.
Published: September 2023

One of the most promising methods for improving control efficiency is the parallel synthesis of commands by a group of computing devices. However, delays in digital-to-analog conversions and software processing, the need to synchronize calculations, and signal transmission coordination prevent the achievement of maximum performance in distributed systems. Problems can be solved by increasing the power of embedded microprocessors. This leads to an undesirable increase in design complexity, energy consumption, and dimensions of controls. For the miniaturization of embedded control systems, the article proposes to apply the principles of the indivisibility of physical processes in a technical system and the execution of control commands based on the functional combination of aggregates with analog logic devices (agents). A generalized model of changing the states of a technical system is considered, which sets the principles for switching on or off groups of units. The concept of an automaton of ternary logic is introduced, which determines the order of interaction of aggregates in the time domain. The synthesis of the block diagram of the automaton is carried out. In the mathematical model of the automaton, the operations of ternary logic receive a specific physical content in the form of retrospective processing of changes in the states of aggregates. It is shown that ternary logic automata can be combined into open and closed chains, setting hardware control algorithms units robot. The circuits for connecting automata controlled by elements of asynchronous logic are given. When connected in series, the automata control the order of switching on and off the units. Chains of three-valued logic automata can be arbitrarily long, determining the behavior of the system in the process of its operation. Due to the rejection of program control, such automata can operate in real time, limited only by the delay of signals in logic elements. An important advantage of the proposed technical solution is the unification of the automatic control system. The simplicity of the design of devices and the absence of additional add-ons make it possible to integrate such circuits into the controls of microminiature robots, reducing their weight and size parameters. Promising areas of application of analog automata are microelectromechanical and microelectronic devices.
Control Algorithms for a Bidirectional Wireless Power Transmission System at the Redistribution of Energy Resources in a Group of Ground Robots
Authors: Krestovnikov K. D.
Published: September 2023

Redistributing energy resources within a group of ground robots allows for an increase in the reachable workspace area and expands its functional capabilities. The use of wireless energy transfer systems for exchanging energy resources between ground robots reduces the requirements for positioning accuracy and enhances the reliability of the robotic system. This study examines control and management algorithms for a bidirectional wireless energy transfer system when operating as part of a ground robot. A structural diagram of the bidirectional wireless energy transfer module is proposed for integration into the robot’s control system, built on distributed principles. The developed algorithms take into account the specific features of the circuitry solutions of the bidirectional wireless energy transfer system, implemented using an uncontrolled resonant generator. The proposed solutions are tested on a robotics platform. The experiments focus on the process of replenishing the energy resources of one robot with another robot. Energy is transmitted between robots equipped with the same Li-ion battery, which has a nominal voltage of 7.4 V and a capacity of 5 A•h. The battery is charged from 50 % to 90 % capacity with different positioning accuracies of the robots. When there is a displacement of 4 mm and a distance of 4 mm between the receiving and transmitting coils, the charging time was 48 minutes, which is 5 % longer than the wired charging method. The maximum charging time reached 57 minutes with a distance of 15 mm between the robots. The use of bidirectional wireless power transfer for energy exchange between ground robots or for charging robots at a charging station enhances the autonomy of the group’s operation, as energy transfer can be successfully achieved even with low positioning accuracy. The proposed solutions can be used for battery charging and resource redistribution processes in groups of ground and underwater robots.
Planning the Optimal Reference Flight Path of an Aircraft Using a Terrain Map
Authors: Agayev N. B. , Orujov Q. H. , Kalbiyev N. N.
Published: September 2023

In connection with the development of aviation technology, the expansion of the functionality of modern aircraft and the complication of the tasks being solved, additional stringent requirements are imposed on the accuracy of air navigation. Along with high accuracy, navigation autonomy is also required. The autonomy of aircraft navigation implies the navigation of an aircraft without the use of active radar facilities. In this article, to calculate the optimal reference flight path of an aircraft in a horizontal plane, the Bellman dynamic programming method is proposed using a digital terrain map. A technique, algorithms have been developed, and a numerical experiment has been carried out using fragments of a digital terrain map. High accuracy and autonomy of navigation are necessary, among other things, to ensure stealth (invisibility) of aircraft by ground-based radar facilities of a potential enemy in low-altitude flight mode. The best stealth of an aircraft flight in a low-altitude flight mode is achieved not only by flying around, but also by avoiding obstacles, due to the shielding properties of the earth’s surface. Autonomy of navigation provides periodic correction of the reference flight path during long-term flight, and high accuracy prevents aircraft collisions with the earth’s surface in low-altitude flight mode. The purpose of this work is to select the optimal reference trajectory (route) of an aircraft flight in the low-altitude flight mode. This article discusses a method developed based on the principle of dynamic programming for calculating the reference flight path in the horizontal plane depending on the DEM and the implementation of the algorithm based on the proposed method with a specific numerical example. The method makes it possible to calculate the optimal flight route, which provides the greatest secrecy of the aircraft in the low-altitude flight mode using the screening properties of the earth’s surface irregularities.
Tér hatalom nélkül, hatalom tér nélkül. A periférikus térségek kormányzása - empirikus tapasztalatok
Authors: Pálné Kovács Ilona , Finta István , Brucker Balázs , Pénzár Árpád
Published: September 2023

A tanulmány egy Baranya megyében zajlott empirikus vizsgálat eredményeit mutatja be, amely a periférikus térségek fejlesztéspolitikai kormányzási viszonyait elemezte. A tanulmány alapját képező kutatási blokk a kormányzásban résztvevő intézmények működésére és a kormányzásban résztvevő szereplők véleményére irányult.
A periférikus térségekben különösen nagy a jelentősége a kormányzás minőségének, vagyis annak, hogy a helyi erőforrások mozgósítása és a külső támogatások racionális felhasználása milyen döntési folyamatban történik. A perifériák lemaradását, stagnálását, hanyatlását hagyományosan összekötik az aszimmetrikus hatalmi viszonyokkal, a centrumtól való gazdasági, társadalmi függőséggel, az érdekkiegyenlítő, rásegítő, helyzetbe hozó mechanizmusok gyengeségével vagy hiányával. Általános felismerés, hogy a decentralizált döntési mechanizmusok nemcsak a jó kormányzás értékei, feltételei szempontjából fontosak, hanem kedveznek a hátrányos helyzetű térségek felzárkózásának is. A tanulmányban bemutatott vizsgálati eredmények szerint sem a megye, sem a járás, sem a kistérség, sem a városi központok nem tudnak térbeli integráló szerepet betölteni, tágabb értelemben területi érdekeket képviselni. A vákuumot az egyéni országgyűlési képviselők töltik ki egy olyan térbeli körzetrendszerben, amelynek nincs intézményes, szabályozott eszköze a fejlesztési tervezéshez és forráselosztáshoz. A központosított tervezés és forráselosztás, miután nem rendelkezik elegendő információval és nem kényszerül rá a területi szereplőkkel való kompromisszumokra, érvényesíteni tudja a nemzeti fejlesztési prioritásokat, amelyek azonban ritkán kedveznek a periférikus térségeknek. Ez a kormányzási modell Baranya megyében még hátrányosabb a perifériák számára, mint általában, nem csak azért, mert az aprófalvas településszerkezet, a határ menti fekvés eleve forráshiányt okoz, hanem azért is, mert sem az erőforráshiányos megyeszékhely, sem a többnyire stagnáló kisvárosok nem vették át a térbeli integráció feladatát.
Sajátos módon a vélemények által is visszaigazolt centralizált hatalmi szerkezet ellenére a megkérdezettek túlnyomó többsége alapvetően fontosnak tartja a helyi vezetés szerepét. A tér nélküli hatalom és a hatalom nélküli tér hátránya összeadódik.
Fejlesztési lehetőségek a periférián egy Baranya megyei felmérés tükrében
Authors: Horeczki Réka , Póla Péter
Published: September 2023

A tanulmány két primer adatfelvétel eredményeinek segítségével elemzi a centrum-periféria gondolatkört a falu-város, a megyeszékhely-megye viszonylatában. Emellett Baranya megye általános problématérképét vetíti fel, a településeket objektív (statisztikai adatok alapján) és szubjektív (kérdőív és interjúk segítségével) sikeresség szempontjából vizsgálja. Empirikus adatokkal is igazoljuk a központok és perifériák tartós fennmaradását a megyében, s amellett érvelünk, hogy ezt az állapotot csupán a helyi adottságok megfelelő hasznosítása, a lakossági aktivitás, a tudatos tervezés és településmenedzsment, helyenként a polgármester személye képes ellensúlyozni.
A periférikus helyzetű települések fejlesztése a problémák súlya és összetettsége miatt nagy kihívást jelent. A fejletlen infrastruktúra, a munkalehetőségek szűkössége, a közszolgáltatások elérhetőségének akadályai miatt is romlik a demográfia szerkezet, továbbra is jellemző az aktívabb és képzettebb rétegek elvándorlása. Mégis találunk példákat arra, hogy az ilyen (földrajzi, gazdasági, hatalmi) perifériákon is lehet fejlődni, a jóllétet megőrizni, akár növelni. A tanulmány nem a sikeresség receptjét kínálja, hanem empirikusan is alátámasztja legfontosabb összetevőinek (a gazdasági bázis megléte, a településvezetés felkészültsége, aktivitása, a tudatos tervezés, a humán- és társadalmi tőke stb.) szerepét. Tanulmányunk az objektív és szubjektív mutatók alapján is bemutatja a sikeres vagy sikeresnek tartott településeket, és elemzi, hogy fejlődésük a periférikus régióban minek köszönhető. Ugyancsak empirikusan vizsgáljuk, hogy a megye településein élők a fejlődés szempontjából mely tényezőket tartják a legmeghatározóbbnak, s melyek azok, amelyek a leginkább hiányoznak. A gazdasági bázis megléte (vagy közelsége) a sikerességi faktorok között nyilvánvalóan meghatározó, de kutatásunk rámutat arra, hogy a koncepcióval rendelkező, tudatos településmenedzsment mellett a humán és társadalmi tőke sem nélkülözhető. Ugyanakkor, többek szerint a sikerességhez a lobbitevékenység (politikai kapcsolat, támogatás) is szükséges.
Vidékfejlesztési programok jellegzetességei a periférikus térségekben
Authors: Horeczki Réka , Finta István
Published: September 2023

A periférikus helyzetű térségek fejlesztése ugyan sosem állt a hazai fejlesztéspolitika középpontjában, az uniós csatlakozást követően azonban sor került néhány olyan kísérletre, mely igyekezett felszámolni a periférikus jelleget, és csökkenteni az egyes térségek közötti területi különbségeket. A tanulmány központi kérdése az, hogy milyen beavatkozási forma lehet az, amely eredményesen képes elősegíteni a hátrányos helyzetű térségek fejlődését. A válaszok kialakítása során alapvetően két olyan eltérő filozófiájú beavatkozási formát mutatunk be (LEADER megközelítés, Magyar Falu Program), amelyek a tanulmány megírásának idején is zajlanak. A tanulmány számba veszi azokat a feltételeket, amelyek nélkülözhetetlenek a periférikus térségek fejlődéséhez, bemutatja azokat a beavatkozási sajátosságokat, amelyek biztosítják e feltételek teljesülését, illetőleg összehasonlítja azokat a pénzügyi forrásokat, amelyek a különböző beavatkozási formák számára rendelkezésre állnak. A LEADER fejlesztési megközelítés mellett ismertetésre kerülnek a Magyar Falu Program célkitűzései és támogatotti köre. A tanulmány részleteiben elemzi Baranya megye támogatottságát, illetve példaként beemeli a Hegyháti járás összehasonlító eredményeit is. A forráseloszlási sajátosságok rámutatnak arra, hogy nem elég csupán a pénzügyi feltétel, a települések fejlődéséhez szükségesek egyéb tényezők is. Végül – az előnyök és hátrányok, valamint egyes számszerűsíthető eredmények mérlegelése alapján – egyértelműnek tűnik az, hogy csak olyan fejlesztési módszer lehet hosszú távon is sikeres a perifériák felzárkóztatásában, amely alulról építkezve, a belső erőforrásokra támaszkodva, a partnerség elve alapján a komplex kérdésekre komplex válaszokat, megoldásokat kínál.
Perifériák az Európai Unió perifériáján? Avagy a szubnacionális érdekérvényesítés keretei és korlátai EU szinten
Authors: Brucker Balázs , Finta István
Published: September 2023

A tanulmány célja bemutatni, hogy a perifériák problémaköre miként jelenik az Európai Unió intézményrendszerében. A tanulmány első részében kísérletet teszünk az uniós periféria fogalmának definiálására, illetve bemutatjuk, hogy a perifériák kérdését hogyan kezelik az uniós dokumentumok. A második részben az EU fejlesztéspolitikája és a periférikus térségek fejlődési esélyeinek összefüggéseit vesszük górcső alá, míg a harmadikban a perifériák uniós érdekérvényesítési lehetőségeinek bemutatására kerül sor.

Kutatásunk az uniós szereplők (elsősorban EP-képviselők és a Régiók Bizottsága-tagok) körében 2021-ben készített mélyinterjúkon (ez alól egyetlen 2016-os EP-s interjú jelent kivételt) és a 2004 és 2020 közötti uniós fejlesztéspolitikai dokumentumok (Bizottság, Európai Parlament, Régiók Bizottsága, Európai Gazdasági és Szociális Bizottság) elemzésén alapul.

A kutatásunk eredménye szerint a fejlettebb, jól szervezett szereplők érdekei sokkal inkább megjelennek és beépülhetnek a különböző döntési folyamatokba, míg a perifériák esetén gyakran még az igények azonosítása is nehézségekbe ütközik. Függetlenül attól, hogy az egyes érdekek a kohéziós politika – többszintű kormányzási – rendszerén, vagy az érdekérvényesítés más intézményesített, vagy informális csatornáin keresztül jelennek meg uniós szinten, a fejlesztéspolitika formálásában betöltött szerepük elvitathatatlan. Ha azonban az érdekek megjelenésére nem kerül sor, akkor a perifériák sajátosságaihoz illeszkedő (fókuszált) beavatkozások kialakításának – így a területi különbségek mérséklésnek is – csekély az esélye.

E tematikus szám alapját képező kutatásba kezdve azt feltételeztük, hogy a fejlesztési központoktól távoli perifériák fejlődése a települési központok, a településhálózat dinamikájától, valamint a hatalmi intézményi központoktól, szereplőktől függ. A periféria érdekérvényesítési képessége azonban kiegészül a saját helyi erőforrások mozgósításának képességével is. A bevezetőben kutatásunk elméleti kereteit és módszertanát mutatjuk be. Kutatásunk eredményei rámutatnak arra, hogy a perifériák kormányzati szereplői a hiányzó intézményi erőforrások, a rossz érdekérvényesítési pozíció, a politikai függés okán egyre kevésbé képesek a mozgósításra és fejlesztési koalíciók kiépítésére.
Hate Speech and Personal Rights – Selected Aspects of Civil Law Protection
Authors: Bojanowski Tomasz
Published: September 2023

The subject of this article is the analysis of hate speech in civil law terms through the prism of the institution of personal rights. The author points out that the issue of hate speech is an interdisciplinary phenomenon, but one that is strongly related to legal sciences, in particular criminal law. It would be of great value to science to consider the topic more broadly from the perspective of administrative and civil law. The author links the issue of hate speech with personal rights and points out that, on civil law grounds, hate speech is an attack on specific personal rights. Then he discusses the essence of the regulation of personal rights. Next, he goes on to analyse the position of the entitled and responsible parties and extensively analyses claims arising from the violation of personal rights in the context of hate speech. The author also proposes solutions that could increase the level of civil law protection (i.e., the institution of a blind civil lawsuit) and points to the important role of legal education. According to the author, the Polish legal system provides civil law institutions that are effective protection against hate speech. Nevertheless, the phenomenon in question must be constantly analysed in the context of contemporary social and civilisation challenges so that the legal system in Poland responds to these challenges.
The Dysfunctionality of the Protection of the Rights of a Minor Patient. Part 1: Representation of Interests and the Right to Information
Authors: Boratyńska Maria
Published: September 2023

The article considers the functionality of protecting the rights of the child as a patient from abuse of parental authority and assesses the possibility of independent activity of adequately mentally mature children. In Polish medical law, the age ceiling for limited decision-making capacity in of consent to medical acts is set too high. The legislation only regulates the issue of decisional age from the side of the validity of the consent for the provision of medical service and the due medical information. Even the best parent is, after all, only a third party to the personal interests of his/her child and is not entitled to the right to exercise his/her rights as a patient. The consequences of neglecting care in matters that do not require immediate medical attention can be harmful when they result in future bodily dysfunctions, such as worsening visual impairment or dramatic dental defects. Medical law, however, does not differentiate between the rights of a minor. A highly defined decision age ceiling is dysfunctional in many respects because it does not distinguish between a newborn and a 15-year-old, whereas already school adolescents show at least a limited understanding of their own health matters health. Although the law provides for applying for the authorization of a guardianship court, this method is completely ineffective unless it is carried out by an adult. The child should be equipped with the legal means to act independently, freely, and free of to act without the involvement of protective services, at least in relatively simple and obvious matters. After a deeper analysis of the norms, it appears that the legal sanctions for medical assistance in ordinary health matters, given to a child under conditions of abuse of parental authority, can be overruled by an argument of a conflict of goods and interests.
Academic Teacher Suspension from Duties
Authors: Harczuk Jarosław
Published: September 2023

The article characterizes the institution of suspension of an academic teacher from his duties currently functioning in domestic Polish law. It is divided into six parts. The study discusses the evolution of the suspension of an academic teacher from his duties since 1990, the forms of suspension, the formal and substantial prerequisites for the optional suspension and the legal consequences of the suspension of an academic teacher. The issue of the functioning of the institution in question as part of disciplinary proceedings has been presented both from the theoretical and legal aspect, as well as from the point of the regulations of criminal procedure and labor law. The article draws on the body of literature on the suspension of an academic teacher in the performance of his duties and the case law of common courts and the Supreme Administrative Court.

Published: September 2023

В работе численно исследованы некоторые способы управления волной детонации в стехиометрической водородно-воздушной смеси в плоском канале, на одной из стенок которого расположена область с барьерами. Изучено влияние геометрических параметров этой области (ее протяженности, высоты барьеров и частоты их расстановки) на детонационное горение смеси. Рассмотрена возможность управления детонацией посредством предварительной подготовки горючей смеси (предварительного разложения части молекулярного водорода и молекулярного кислорода на атомарные газы) или внесения в горючую смесь добавок аргона и озона. Установлено, что детонационная волна в подготовленном газе и в смеси с добавками в концентрациях, обеспечивающих размер ячейки волны детонации в полученной смеси близкий к среднему размеру ячейки в чистом газе, более устойчива к возмущениям, вызванным препятствиями. Это дает возможность использовать указанные механизмы для сохранения детонационного горения в канале с множественными барьерами.

Аммиачная селитра (АC) широко используется в качестве окислителя в ракетном топливе, взрывчатых веществах и пиротехнике. Некоторые недостатки нитрата аммония можно уменьшить, используя сплав Mg-Al в качестве топлива. Изучено влияние оксида циркония (ZrO2) на характеристики горения и термические свойства пиротехнических смесей на основе AC/Mg-Al. Добавление ZrO2 значительно увеличивает скорость горения и снижает предел дефлаграции под давлением с 2 МПа до менее 1 МПа. Дифференциальная сканирующая калориметрия исследовала характеристики термического разложения при различных скоростях нагрева и оценила энергии активации. При добавлении сплава Mg-Al к чистой AC основной пик смещается ниже примерно при 100 оC. В то же время ZrO2 действительно оказывает значительное влияние на термические свойства как AС, так и AС/MgAl. Добавление сплава MgAl и ZrO2 снижает энергию активации.

Authors: ZOUZOU Hanane
Published: September 2023

Background: Sino atrial block in acute coronary syndrome with ST segment elevation is not rare and may be dangerous by causing severe bradycardia.
Its incidence was reported in the literature, but no data about its predictive factors or related mortality, also its epidemiological data is lacking in Algeria.
Aims: The main objective of our study is the determination of the frequency of Sino Atrial Block in acute coronary syndrome with ST segment elevation, the secondary objective was the analysis of predictive factors of this Brady arrhythmia, and related mortality.
Methods and materials:  In this prospective study, conducted in the cardiology department of Hussein Dey hospital (Algiers-Algeria), 467 patients with acute coronary syndrome with elevated ST segment (87 women and 380 men) were enrolled between 28 February 2014 and 16 July 2015. The average age is 60 ± 13 years; at admission, a Holter recorder was attached for continuous ECG monitoring during 48 hours
Kruskal’s ANNOVA or H tests were used for comparison of quantitative variables, χ2 test or Fisher’s exact test, were used for qualitative variables, all tests were performed with 1st species risk of 5%.
Results:  The frequency of complete Sino atrial block is 2.6 % (12 patients), CI 95%: [1.2%-4%], multivariate analysis identified the following independent predictors: right ventricular acute coronary syndrome, infero basal acute coronary syndrome, and large right atrium surface.
The risk of mortality expressed by Hazard Ration (HR) is 5.4. (CI95%: [1.2-24], p = 0.024); right acute coronary syndrome is the only predictive factor of mortality identified in our study.
Conclusion: Sino atrial block is not rare in acute coronary syndrome with elevated ST segment, its predictive factors according to our study are: right ventricular acute coronary syndrome, infero basal acute coronary syndrome, and large surface of right atrium, its occurrence increases the risk of hospital mortality.

Authors: Florence Auma Odera , Charles Ondoro
Published: September 2023

The hotel industry is one of the fastest growing sectors of the global economies; its significant contribution is seen to be on an upward trend, as evidenced here in Kenya where international hotel chains are opening its branches within developed towns to reap the market rewards from this competitive industry. The current rapid growth in hospitality industry has triggered stiff competition which requires exemplary service to be able to attract and maintain loyal customers during any tourist season. Thus, interest to the Western Kenya Circuit which is still virgin in nature and development. This study aimed at determining the influence of strategic change organizational mission on employee performance, case of hotels in western Kenya circuit. The study adopted Lewin’s model and Contingency theories of change on theoretical framework. A correlation survey was adopted to conduct research where questionnaires were used to collect primary data while secondary data sourced from relevant reviewed literature. The study assessed hotels in Western Kenya circuit. The study population was 585 employees from different levels working in the hotels. Total of 116 were selected as the sample size using stratified random sampling procedure with different level of employees forming basis of strata. Data was tested for validity via exposure to experts and reliability by Cronbach’s Alpha test on pilot data from 12 respondents. Reliability results indicated all three scales reliable at .801, .777 and .825 a change in organization mission (β=.415>0.05). A statistical model with the two as independent variables accounted for 26.1% of variation in employee performance (Adjusted R-Squared = 0.261>0.05). The study found that altering organizational culture didn't significantly impact employee performance, whereas changing the mission led to improved employee and organizational performance. A shift in mission enhanced feedback, efficiency, productivity, and competency. Western Kenya Circuit Hotels' employees value mission changes, showing greater motivation and effort when the purpose evolves. The implication of this finding was any efforts towards enhancing employee performance should focus primarily on aspects of hotels mission that are equally important to employee for overall performance. While acknowledging the importance of organizational change on performance, managers and stakeholders should reorganize the significance of each aspect of organization strategic change on mission in influencing employee performance and that of the organization.

Published: September 2023

Socio-spatial learning analytics (SSLA) is an emerging area within learning analytics research that seeks to uncover valuable educational insights from individuals’ social and spatial data traces. These traces are captured automatically through sensing technologies in physical learning spaces, and the research is commonly based on the theoretical foundations of social constructivism and cultural anthropology. With its growing empirical basis, a systematic literature review is timely in order to provide educational researchers and practitioners with a detailed summary of the emerging works and the opportunities enabled by SSLA. This paper presents a systematic review of 25 peer-reviewed articles on SSLA published between 2011 and 2023. Descriptive, network, and thematic analyses were conducted to identify the citation networks, essential components, opportunities, and challenges enabled by SSLA. The findings illustrated that SSLA provides the opportunity to (1) contribute unobtrusive and unsupervised research methodologies, (2) support educators’ classroom orchestration through visualizations, (3) support learner reflection with continuous and reliable evidence, (4) develop novel theories about social and collaborative learning, and (5) empower educational stakeholders with the quantitative data to evaluate different learning spaces. These findings could support learning analytics and educational technology scholars and practitioners to better understand and utilize SSLA to support future educational research and practice.
