Authors: SUBHALAKSHMI GANESAN, S. V. MANIKANTHAN
Published: June 2023

Domestic work is a work performed in or for more than one household. In India, household works are always considered to fall within the ambit or sphere of women. While it has become indispensable for both the male and female members of a family to earn for a better life the need to engage a female worker to take care of all the household chores has increased. These domestic workers form a part of unorganized workforce in the Indian population and their conditions of work are often undervalued, unprotected and unregulated. The current pandemic situation on one hand highlighted the need to keep our houses and surroundings clean and on the other hand the need to acknowledge the existence and skills of the domestic workers. They do not receive minimum pay or safe working conditions. In this backdrop this paper tries to discuss their difficulties, working conditions and to highlight on their rights to be protected.

"THE ROLE OF THE UNITED NATIONS IN MITIGATING GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE"
Authors: ALAA MOHAMMED HASSAN, SAIF NUSSRAT TAWFEEQ
Published: June 2023

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international treaty established in 1992 under the auspices of the United Nations. It aims to promote global cooperation in combating climate change and adapting to its impacts. The UNFCCC sets out a framework for countries to work together to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that prevents dangerous human interference with the climate system. It recognizes that the climate system is a shared resource that requires international cooperation to protect. One of the key achievements of the UNFCCC was the adoption of the Paris Agreement in 2015. This historic agreement builds upon the principles of the UNFCCC and aims to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, while pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius. It also emphasizes the need for countries to enhance their adaptive capacity and support developing nations in their climate actions. The UNFCCC facilitates regular meetings called Conferences of the Parties (COP) where countries come together to discuss and negotiate climate-related issues. These COP meetings provide a platform for countries to review progress, share experiences, and strengthen international cooperation in addressing climate change. The United Nations plays a vital role in mobilizing political will, fostering international collaboration, and supports countries in their efforts to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, adapt to the impacts of climate change, and promote sustainable development. In conclusion, the UNFCCC, under the guidance of the United Nations, serves as a crucial platform for global action on climate change. It provides a framework for international cooperation, facilitates negotiations, and promotes sustainable solutions to address the urgent challenge of climate change.
THE IMPACT OF THE DELIBERATIVE MULTIPLICITY OF RELIGIOUS DISCOURSE ON THE INDIVIDUAL AND THE COMMUNITY
Authors: DJELLOUL DJILALI
Published: June 2023

Religious discourse depends on the principle of influence using evidence and proofs to motivate the recipient and make him always attached to the developments of the times and improve dealing with them, and religious discourse is directed to a specific group and therefore the effects are different, the preacher must be familiar with these matters, taking into account the psychological, social and political aspects, because, at any moment of delivery, there may be emotional situations that the recipient interacts with.

The contemplator of religious discourse finds that it is a discourse directed to the mind, soul, thought, and emotion, and thus a consistent semantic charge is formed and in line with the natural pattern of the language, so the discourse here has a functional linguistic value that elevates the literary work to the supremacy of the high-end linguistic style.

Women Empowerment-Economic Development Nexus: Bangladesh and Vietnam in Comparative Perspective
Authors: Dhar Soma
Published: June 2023

This study aims to highlight the bidirectional relationship between women’s empowerment and economic development in Bangladesh (South Asia) and Vietnam (Southeast Asia). The study investigates the U-shaped hypothesis for both countries to figure out the impact of economic development on women’s empowerment. With an econometric approach, the research runs the regression model by the Pooled Regression, Fixed Effect, and Random Effect models with Panel data from (1991-2019) to estimate the impact of women’s empowerment on economic development. Female labor force participation rate and Real GDP per capita are used as the proxy indicator of women’s empowerment and economic development respectively. In the regression model, Real GDP per capita is used as the dependent variable, and the female labor force participation rate as the independent variable. Fertility rate, Mortality rate, and Female employment to population ratio are used as controlled variables. The study demonstrates women's empowerment through the Human Development Index and Global Gender Gap Index. In Global Gender Gap Index, Vietnam is ahead in economic participation and opportunity (sub-index), and educational attainment (sub-index), whereas Bangladesh leads in health and survival (sub-index), and political empowerment (sub-index). However, the regression result shows that the female labor force participation rate, fertility rate, and mortality rate have a negative significance on economic development, whereas the female employment to population ratio has a positive significance on economic development in Bangladesh and Vietnam. The existing U-shape in Vietnam proves that women empowerment and economic development nexus is commendable whereas an upward pattern, not a U-shape exists in Bangladesh.

Porphyrias are heterogenous group of metabolic disorders arising from defects in the heme biosynthetic pathway, each being characterized by a specific partial enzyme deficiency. Also, a flawed gene that control the action of enzyme in the heme synthesis creates a lack of heme and build up of porphyrin. Porphyria can be triggered by environmental factors such as; infections, cigarette smoking, antibiotics, etc. Porphyria can be classified into acute porphyria that causes neurological symptoms, and cutaneous porphyria that cause photosensitivity, affecting the skin. In cutaneous porphyria, the two distinct pattern of skin disease seen are the immediate photosensitivity and vesiculo-erosive skin disease. Symptoms include; abdominal pain, muscle weakness, hallucination, pain in the back or chest, burning pain on the skin, red or brown urine. Long term complication include paralysis, skin scarring, permanent hair loss, gall stones, breathing difficulties, dehydration. It can be diagnosed using blood, urine and stool samples, urine estimation of porphobilinogen is also done. Treatment of porphyria include; administration of heme arginate, regular blood removal, low doses of antimalarial drug, narrow band UVB therapy, avoidance of triggers. It can be prevented by avoiding factors that precipitate it such as; stress, fasting, infection, alcohol.
IN THIS ISSUE: Small is beautiful, but ...
Authors: Hilchey Duncan
Published: June 2023

First paragraphs: On the cover of our spring 2023 issue (volume 12, issue 3), Samantha and Chris Kemnah enjoy a moment with their cows on Clover Bliss Farm, their 190-acre farm in South Argyle, New York. You can read more about the Kemnahs in a 2018 article in the Hill Country Observer by Tracy Frisch entitled “An escape route from dairy farming’s crisis?” Alas, the economic pressure Frisch referred to five years ago has remained for small dairy farmers—and particularly for small organic dairy farms. Since that article was written, the consumption of fluid milk has continued to decline even as organic milk has flooded into the limited market. In 2021, Danone North America (owner of the Horizon Milk brand) cancelled contracts with dozens of small organic dairy farms in the Northeast U.S., triggering an economic crisis and calling into question Danone’s certified B Corporation status. Observers have wondered, how could a company that promotes itself as farm-friendly not offer a more engaging and deliberative process in making such a consequential business decision? But this case triggers an even larger question: while small may be beautiful, can small and middle-scale also be resilient, even in a triple bottom-line context? . . .

平台驅動市場中言論競爭失衡導致的壟斷危機，加劇煽動性內容的傳遞與政治極化的現象，促使民主機制遭受挑戰。本研究由憲法言論自由的視野出發，以直接因果連結、最小限制手段與規範不足為理論基礎，論證事前訂立專法管制假訊息勢將無法通過違憲審查的現實。由此，本研究循美國《通訊端正法》第230條的脈絡為觀察，試圖型塑以平台責任為核心的管制論述，構築兼具強化言論自由功能與彰顯「善良撒瑪利亞人」精神的假訊息規範模式。

 

As digital technology continues to evolve with the Internet, imbalances in competition have resulted in a risk of monopolies in the online social platforms. These imbalances have led to political polarization and sedition, which have challenged the stability of democratic institutions. In this study, the constitutional right to freedom of speech, direct causal links, least restrictive means, and insufficient specificity were integrated into a theoretical framework to demonstrate that a standard enacted to control the spread of disinformation would not be constitutional. On the basis of Section 230 of the US Communications Decency Act, this study proposes legislative and regulatory approaches for the digital environment. It further describes a legal standard for governing disinformation by upholding the Good Samaritan spirit.

Published: June 2023

Background: Even though sleep makes up nearly a third of a person's lifetime, we do not fully appreciate its significance. The partial or nearly complete loss of sleep from an organism that results in a number of detrimental health issues is known as sleep deprivation. Aim: To investigate how omega 3 fatty acids affect the size and weight of the prostate gland in sleep-deprived rats. Study design: Random control trial. Methodology: Thirty male Sprague Dawley rats (population) aged three to four months and weighing 200 to 300 grammes were utilised. They were kept in a controlled setting at the NIH's animal house in Islamabad. Rats were randomised into three groups by using lottery method, with n = 10 rats in each group. The control group was designated as group A. They experienced a regular cycle of sleep and wakefulness. Rats in group B, which experienced sleep deprivation for 16 hours followed by an 8-hour sleep window each day for 8 weeks, were placed in the sleep-deprived group. The standard lab diet was provided to Groups A and B. For eight weeks, Group C received a typical lab meal combined with omega 3 fatty acids while also being sleep deprived for 16 hours, followed by an 8-hour sleep window each day. Results: In comparison to groups A and C that received omega 3, the gland weight and volume in group B were significantly lower. Group A: Weight and volume of the prostate: Prostate weight ranged from 1.85 to 0.50 grammes on average. The computed RTBWI was 0.60 + 0.22. The prostate's mean SD volume was 166.81 45.67 mm3. GROUP B: Weight of the prostate: Prostate weight ranged from 1.30 to 0.22 grammes on average. In the sleep-deprived group B compared to the control group A, the weight of the prostate was considerably lower (p-value=0.008). The computed RTBWI was 0.37 + 0.22. The prostate's mean SD volume was 127.88 67.35 mm3. GROUP C: Weight of prostate gland: In experimental group C, the prostate's mean SD weight was 2.19 0.42gm. According to the RTBWI calculation, it was 0.64 0.07. The prostate's mean SD volume was 182.89 44.16 mm3. Practical Implication: Today, sleep deprivation is a big problem, and this study will assist researchers in examining how Omega 3 fatty acids can help prevent this problem and the harmful effects it has on the prostate glands. Conclusion: It was concluded that Omega 3 fatty acids played a protective role while sleep deprivation had a negative impact on the weight and volume of the prostate gland. Keywords: Sleep Deprivation, Omega 3 Fatty Acids, Prostate and Protective Effect.

Especially, fermented cream is among the most important dairy product that has a major demand on the consumer market, being purchased daily by consumers. Cream is high in fat. Cream fats are easily assimilated by the human body. The purpose of this paper is to determine the conformity of fermented cream and the study of standardized indices. The following research methods were included: method of analysis, methods of scientific knowledge and expertise. The paper contains the results of organoleptic, physico-chemical and sensory research on the quality of local and imported cream products. The results of the research show that no product fully met the prescribed requirements. We also studied consumer preferences by sensory analysis of fermented cream (20 points). The highest score was 18.4 points, accumulated by the "President" cream. In addition, we checked the correctness of the mandatory information on the product labels. In this sense, out of all the 6 products analyzed, only one product meets the requirements of Law 279 on consumer information on food. The other products are missing one or two pieces of information related to the batch number, product safety information and the label with the translation into the state language.

Authors: YELGEL Övgü Ceyda
Published: June 2023

The application of mechanical strain is a crucial technique to adjust and optimize the physical properties of materials, making them potentially useful for various applications, including renewable energy resources and nanoelectronics. Hydrogen production through water splitting has been proposed as a promising solution to the energy crisis. Therefore, there is a great demand for exploring low-cost and efficient photocatalysts for this process. We investigated the electronic properties, structural properties and band alignment of WSSe/graphene-like GaN (g-GaN) heterostructure. Our results reveal that the band alignment of the AA-stacked WSSe/g-GaN heterostructure satisfies the water redox potentials at a pH of 7. In order to investigate the effect of regulation on these two heterostructures, out of plane strain ranging from -2% to 2% is applied. Results show that applying strain to the heterostructure will enhace the photocatalytic properties which was evaluated based on the valence and conduction band edge potentials.
