The study highlights the main trends in the percep-tion of ethnopolitical, social and economic process-es by students in the North Caucasus region. The positive and negative aspects of these processes have been identified in the assessments and views of the modern youth in the North Caucasus Federal District. Young people of the North Caucasus are regarded as the main actors of innovative projects on political, social and economic development of the region. They tend to respond most quickly to the ongoing changes and be demanded of ad-dressing the important social problems such as un-employment, territorial disputes, corruption, extrem-ism and radicalism, increased ethnic tension. The study reveals that the customs and traditions of the North Caucasus have a strong impact on political preferences of young people. These preferences are mainly generated in the communication environ-ment and the interaction with their close relatives. In addition, the research examines the views of young people on the causes of ethnic territorial con-flicts in the region and the concept of public policy. The study evaluates their desire to take a more ac-tive part in the political life of society as well. The authors conclude that it is important to work comprehensively with young people to stabilize inter-ethnic relations in the region. It is also neces-sary to promote the development of civil society institutions by involving the younger generation to ensure the social and economic, social and political well-being of the North Caucasus Federal District.

The authors examine the differences and theoretical and methodological traditions in their studies on the spatial organization of the world and the European continent. The research notes the continuing relevance of the foundations of the sci-entific space categorization laid down in the classi-cal theories of German-centric geopolitics. The au-thors substantiate the appropriateness of geopoliti-cal concepts for the analysis of the modern interna-tional processes, the military and political confronta-tion between the Great Powers, the probable chang-es in the European spatial organization, rethink-ing and modernizing the space category.
Russian Digital Diplomacy In Syria: Development Prospects
Authors:   Saint Petersburg State University, Shahoud Ziad
Published: October 2019

The study analyzes the means of digital diplomacy used by the Russian Embassy in the Syrian Arab Republic. The author highlights the following draw-backs to using the Internet and social networks that can be observed in the work of Russian diplomats with the Arabic-speaking target audience: an insuf-ficient number of messages and informational mate-rials in Arabic, their limited content and diversity, slow publication. The research emphasizes the need to fully apply the whole range of available digital tools to secure Russia’s national interests in Syria and the Arab world. The author concludes that the cooperation of the Arab-world experts and IT specialists with Russian embassies can provide speed, openness, and competitiveness of informa-tional content and therefore contribute to the crea-tion of an alternative source of information that could attract the Arabic-speaking audience and increase their support of Russia in the region.

Evaluación en Ciencias Económicas. El caso “Costos para la Gestión”. Registro de intervención académica
Authors: Saullo Romina
Published: October 2019

La presente intervención se basa en un ejercicio de reflexión acerca de las prácticas evaluativas en la materia “Costos para la Gestión”, cuyo curriculum si bien pensado para que los espacios teóricos y prácticos y las instancias de evaluación respectivas se sucedan articuladamente, lo cierto es que una vez cerrada y aprobada la cursada práctica, los estudiantes dejan pasar un tiempo nada despreciable antes de rendir el examen final, lo que los coloca en una situación de desventaja respecto de los que rinden el examen final inmediatamente, es decir, en las primeras instancias. Se puede afirmar que existe una relación directa entre la distancia temporal entre cursada y examen y el desempeño poco satisfactorio en el mismo. Esta situación hizo que surgiera la inquietud y la necesidad de revisar la propuesta metodológica, resultando en la formulación de cursadas teórico prácticas bajo el régimen de promoción sin examen final. Este trabajo documenta la experiencia.

Advantages of Colour Etching in Quality Control of Recycled Al-Si Cast Alloys
Authors: Tillová Eva , Kuchariková Lenka , Chalupová Mária , Belan Juraj , Vaško Alan , Herčko Adrián
Published: October 2019

Colour Metallography is a set of light metallographic microscopy methodologies that utilize phase colour contrast as a source of new structure information compared to conventional techniques. In many cases, colour contrast can be induced where no identifiable phase contrast is obtained by conventional techniques. With the help of colour contrast, we gain new information on the structure of Al-Si alloys, especially intermetallic phases, in which the benefits of its use in casting quality control are of benefit.

Blue-yellow contrast is definitely more pronounced than dark grey or light grey contrast. There is no substantial reproducible colour reproduction, since it is irrelevant whether the two phases are distinguished by blue-yellow or green-ocher contrast. When using the colour contrast, the structural components differ not only according to their microscopic appearance, but also based on the knowledge of the chemical composition of alloys, interactions between structural components, knowledge of the possible influence of Al-alloys structure (e.g. refining, modifications, heat treatment).

Colour contrast in quality control of Al-Si alloys was applied to AlSiMg cast alloy (AlSi7Mg0.3; AlSi7MgTi; AlSi10MgMn; etc.)

The quality of aluminum casts is necessary in order to reach sufficient properties required for application. The decreasing in the properties of aluminum cast mainly related with microstructure, especially with size and morphology of second phases. One of such second phases in aluminum alloys are the β-phases. These phases are unwonted mainly because of the decreasing of mechanical properties. The contribution is deal with influence of addition of Mn to affecting the formation of β-phases in the AlSi7Mg0.3 and AlSi7Mg0.6 cast alloys. These materials are used for application especially automotive industry. The results shows, that addition of Mn is not sufficient for affecting of formation of the Fe-rich phases in AlSi7Mg0.6 cat alloys, but in the AlSi7Mg0.3 this addition lead to changes in formation of Fe-rich intermetallic phases.

Proposal of Methodology for Practical Application of Nonparametric Control Charts
Authors: Noskievičová Darja , Smajdorová Tereza
Published: October 2019

This paper deals with the methodology for practical application of nonparametric control charts. This topic is very important for two reasons: firstly nonparametric control charts are very effective instruments for the realization of the statistical process monitoring phase I due to their robustness against various deviations from the data assumptions that must be met when applying model-based control charts. Secondly nonparametric control charts have very weak SW support and also they are not taught in the frame of training courses not even of the university study programmes. For that reason the practitioners do not know them and do not use them. The paper offers the proposal how to practically apply these control charts which is based on the complex simulation study of various nonparametric control charts performance when various data assumptions have not been met. The study has covered these nonparametric control charts: Shewhart sign control chart, nonparametric EWMA and nonparametric CUSUM control charts, nonparametric progressive mean control chart, control chart based on Mood statistics and robust median absolute deviation control chart. All charts have been studied in condition of not normally distributed data, autocorrelated data and data with nonconstant distribution parameters. The simulations were realized for statistically stable (IC – in control) and also statistically unstable (OC – out of control) processes. For the evaluation of the control charts performance median run length, 0.05-quantile, and 0.95-quantile were used.

Authors: Kumperščak Samo , Medved Mihael , Terglav Melanie , Wrzalik Aleksandra , Obrecht Matevž
Published: October 2019

Billions of people in the world are at risk of getting unsafe food. There is an urgent need to improve efficiency and effectiveness of food supply chains. The global population is expected to reach at least 9 billion by the year 2050, requiring up to 70% more food than nowadays and demanding food production and distribution to become much more sustainable. Today, food safety is a worldwide concern due to a number of food safety scandals. As supply chains become more globalized and complex, the ability to track and trace products from fork to farm becomes more difficult but remains equally important. Good traceability may minimize the production and distribution of unsafe or poor quality products. It allows targeting the product affected by a food safety problem, minimizing disruption to trade and any potential public health risks. The objective of this paper is therefore to conduct a comprehensive analysis of traceability methods and technologies in food supply chains.

Takzir sebagai Hukuman dalam Hukum Pidana Islam
Authors: Usammah Usammah
Published: October 2019

Memformalisasikan syariat Islam baik dalam ranah kehidupan bermasyarakat dan sosial, dalam bernegara dan berbangsa tidak jarang terjadi perdebatan, baik perdebatan sosial-politik maupun keagamaan. Perdebatan itu di samping menyangkut memahami ajaran agama dan hubungannya dengan negara-bangsa, juga dalam memahami sistem hukum yang ada dalam negera, lebih-lebih bahwa negera menganut sistem hukum positif yang lebih banyak dipengaruhi oleh hukum barat. Gagasan pemberlakuan hukum pidana Islam tidak serta merta dapat dijalankan dengan baik tanpa adanya legislasi dan pembentukan hukum pidana Islam materil sebagai hukum positif yang berlaku. Juga bahwa hukum pidana Islam adalah hukum publik yang membutuhkan kekuasaan negara baik dalam pembentukannya maupun dalam penegakannya. Dalam hubungannya dengan legislasi dan pembentukan hukum (qanun syariat Islam), maka hal yang sangat menarik adalah bagaimana menentukan bentuk jarimah dan uqubatnya baik yang termasuk dalam kategori hudud, qisas, dan takzir sebagai bagian dari sistem penegakan hukum syariat Islam. Takzir as a Punishment in Islamic Criminal Law The formalizing of Islamic Sharia Law both in the realm of social and community life and also in the state and national level. This issue is frequently debatable, both in socio-political as well as in religious matter. The debate is not only about understanding religious teachings and their relationship with the nation, but also about understanding the legal system applicable in the country, especially the country which apply a positive legal system that influenced by western law. The idea of enforcing Islamic Criminal Law cannot be carried out properly without the existence of legislation and the establishment of Islamic Criminal Law as a positive law that enforced. In addition, Islamic Criminal Law is a public law that requires state power both in its formation and in its enforcement. In relation to legislation and the formation of law (Qanun Sharia), the very interesting part is how to determine the form of rahmah and uqubat both are included in the hudud, qisas and takzir categories as part of the Islamic Sharia law enforcement system.

Published: October 2019

Penelitian ini ingin menjawab kesesuaian Qanun Aceh dengan sistem peraturan perundang-undangan, dengan mengidentifikasi kedudukan qanun dalam sistem peraturan perundang-undangan, dan kewenangan lembaga dalam hak uji materil terhadap qanun sebagai produk hukum. Penelitian ini bersifat yuridis-formil melalui kajian pustaka terhadap peraturan perundang-undangan untuk mendeskripsikan kesesuaian qanun Aceh dalam sistem peraturan perundang-undangan. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa Qanun Aceh ada yang berkaitan dengan penyelenggaraan pemerintahan dan ada yang berkaitan dengan pelaksanaan syariat Islam kedudukannya dianggap sama dengan peraturan daerah pada umumnya dalam perspektif Undang-Undang Nomor 12 Tahun 2011 tentang Pembentukan Peraturan Perundang-Undangan. Argumentasi yuridis yang menyatakan bahwa qanun sejajar dengan peraturan daerah ini diperkuat oleh Peraturan Menteri Dalam Negeri Republik Indonesia Nomor 53 Tahun 2011 tentang Pembentukan Produk Hukum Daerah. Namun berkenaan dengan hak menguji untuk membatalkan Qanun Aceh dalam pelaksanaan syariat Islam hanya dapat diuji dan dibatalkan melalui judicial review oleh Mahkamah Agung sebagaimana diatur dalam Pasal 235 ayat (4) UU Nomor 11 Tahun 2006. Asking for Aceh Qanun Legality: Compatible With Legislation System This study aims to answer the compatibility between the Aceh Qanun and the system of legislation by identifying the position of qanun in the system and the authority of the institution in the rights to materially verify qanun as a legal product. This study uses a juridical-formal method through a literature review of the laws and regulations to describe the suitability of the Aceh qanun in the statutory system. This study found that the Aceh Qanun relating to the administration of government and relating to the implementation of Islamic law, its position is considered the same as local regulations in general in the perspective of Law No. 12/2011 on the Formation of Legislation. The juridical argument that states that the qanun is in line with this regional regulation is reinforced by the Republic of Indonesia Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 53/2011 on the Establishment of Regional Legal Products. However, the right to examine the cancellation of qanun in the implementation of Islamic Shari'a, it can only be examined and canceled through a judicial review by the Supreme Court as stipulated in Article 235 paragraph (4) of Law Number 11/2006.

Background: Shift workers, people who work outside workday hours, are thought to be at risk of decreased alertness and productivity; hence, there is an increased possibility of occupational hazards to happen. Hospital employment requires health professions to be available for work at all times, and this forces the healthcare workers to take on night shifts. Thus, these workers are susceptible to occupationally related sleep disorders. The aim of this study was to assess the quality and duration of sleep among night shift health workers at the Saudi Arabian Eastern Province-hospitals.
Methodology: A cross-sectional study was carried out among health workers working in eight to ten-hour shifts at Eastern Province hospitals in Saudi Arabia. A pretested, structured online questionnaire with twenty-six questions was distributed among the hospitals to healthcare workers, with a total of 252 responses received. The online questionnaire assessed and compared the difference between the sleep quality of these workers while working during the night shift, and the quality of sleep of these workers while having days off from work.
Results: Responses of the healthcare workers to the online questionnaire who worked night shifts replied that they had problems falling and staying asleep (76% and 72.2% respectively). Of these, they suffered from overall poor quality of sleep (59.8%) and reported decreased mental function while awake (64.9%). Furthermore, 74% of respondents reported that during their days off, their occupational-related sleep disorders improved. However, more than half of the respondents noted that they faced difficulties in falling asleep.
Conclusion: Sleep disorders are prominent within night-shift healthcare workers which affected their overall performance at work. Thus, it is recommended that such healthcare workers follow-up with sleep specialists improve their overall quality of sleep.

Background: Most of the countries recommend the seasonal influenza vaccination to healthcare workers to prevent themselves and patients.
Methodology: This cross-sectional study was undertaken from 1/2/2019 to 1/4/2019 in Taif city, the western region of Saudi Arabia. The data were collected through a self-administered approved questionnaire from various health care workers in the city.
Results: Among the participants, there were 59.3% males. Maximum responses were from physicians compared to other health workers (80 (36.2%) Physicians, 92 (41.6%) Nurses, and 33 (14.9%) Clinical Pharmacists). Only 52% of the participants reported that they had taken the influenza vaccine during the 2018-19 season. The reasons for poor compliance mentioned were \'small chance of contracting influenza viruses\" in 51.89% of the participants and \"limited contact with high-risk patients\" in 25.47% of the participants. When asked whether \'Health professionals were under the highest risk in case of an epidemic\', 10.4% of the participants disagreed with the statement. There was no statistically significant association seen with this year vaccine intake and religious beliefs (X2 = 5.44; df=2; p>0.05). In the current study, 67.4% of the participants were aware of the Ministry of Health recommendations about influenza vaccination. Nevertheless, 52% of the participants disagreed with mandatory vaccination for health care workers.
Conclusion: In the current study, both vaccinated and non-vaccinated participants expressed poor knowledge regarding the vaccine, its benefits, safety, and complications. The client reminder for high risk and easy access to influenza vaccine may improve the vaccination status in the country.

El soft law como instrumento para dirigir al gobierno local
Authors: Covilla Martínez Juan Carlos
Published: October 2019

Los instrumentos de soft law pueden ser más efectivos para alinear a los gobiernos locales que los mecanismos tradicionales de coordinación, como los planes. Dos perspectivas explican la eficacia de estos instrumentos. En primer lugar, cuando un Gobierno local adopta políticas exitosas sugeridas por una administración pública con la intención de imitarlas. En segundo lugar, en el caso en el que una administración pública se ve constreñida por la falta de financiación y por ello no puede ejercer de manera adecuada sus competencias. Un instrumento de soft law podría funcionar mejor que un mecanismo tradicional de coordinación cuando se aprovecha de esta falta de financiación y emite una decisión para dirigir al gobierno local.
