The Diminutive in Naim Frashëri’s Poetry and Ismail Kadare’s Works
Authors: Adili-Çeliku Luljeta , Rushidi-Rexhepi Jehona , Rushidi Jeta
Published: July 2018

The works of Naim Frashëri and Ismail Kadare have had a great impact in the Albanian literature. We will not, however, discuss their literary value, but rather we will dwell on the linguistic impact and the gradual enrichment of the language by these authors. In this context, it is sometimes impossible to separate literature from language. This paper aims at explaining some of the aspects of the usage of the diminutive by the above-mentioned writers in their works. Therefore, in Frashëri’s poetry, we find it to be used for the purpose of derision or endearment of something or somebody, whereas in Kadare’s works we see it used only for derision and contempt of a thing or a person. The paper is divided into three parts, the first dealing with the usage of the diminutive by the authors, the second consists of examples of diminutive words, and the last section compares the words used by the former and latter of the authors in question
Changes in thermal and precipitation conditions in Poland in 1971–2010
Authors: Skowera Barbara , Kopcińska Joanna , Kopeć Bogumiła
Published: July 2018

Changes in thermal and precipitation conditions in Poland in 1971-2010. The article presents changes in thermal and precipitation conditions on Polish territory in the years 1971- -2010 based on data from six meteorological stations (Koszalin, Olsztyn, Poznań, Lublin, Opole and Kraków). These data concern the monthly average air temperature, precipitation and the number of days with precipitation per month. Based on the analysis of changing trends in the study of meteorological elements, authors observed an increase in the mean annual air temperature of about 0.9°C over 10 years in all localities. In contrast, trends in the average monthly air temperatures were characterised by temporal and spatial variation. As a result of the increase in temperature, there was a change in the dates signifying the beginning and the end of the thermal periods: farming (OG), vegetation (OW), intensive vegetation (OIW) and maturation or thermal summers (OD/L). A tendency for these periods to start earlier was noted. Statistically significant changes were found for the following periods: vegetation in Koszalin and Olsztyn, intensive vegetation at all stations and thermal summer only in Lublin. An increasingly later end to these periods was noted, and statistically significant trends were found for the dates of the end of the following periods: maturation (thermal summer) at all stations except Opole, intensive vegetation in Poznań and Lublin and vegetation in Lublin and Opole. Seasonal and monthly precipitation totals in the years 1971-2010 were characterised by cyclicality. Significant upward trends were found only in the case of monthly precipitation totals in August in Koszalin and the sum of precipitation in the cooler half of the year in Poznań. In contrast, there was more days with precipitation at all stations included in the study, but the statistical significance of trends varied by location. Changes in thermal and precipitation conditions were accompanied by, among other factors, an increase in temperature, changes in the length of thermal periods and an increase in the frequency of rainfall. All of this is important information for the agricultural sector regarding changing crop conditions
„Lekcje biologii”, czyli Miłosz czyta Szymborską
Authors: Grądziel-Wójcik Joanna
Published: July 2018

Wisława Szymborska has a prominent presence in Czesław Miłosz’s essays, criticism, interpretations and anthologies. This article presents an overview of Miłosz’s assessment of her work. For the first time he turned to her poetry in ‘A Biology Lesson’, one of his lectures delivered in 1981/1982 at Harvard. To illustrate his point about modern man’s existence in a world determined by laws of nature and stripped of eschatology Miłosz quotes Szymborska’s poem ‘Autonomy’. Later, it is her poem ‘A little girl tugs at the tablecloth’ that acquires for him a programmatic importance. Nevertheless, a close analysis of his dialogue with Szymborska shows that in spite of some thematic and poetic common ground their philosophies of life are widely different. Miłosz’s misgivings about the ‘scientific worldview’ in Szymborska’s ‘poetry of consciousness’ are in fact an expression of a dispute about metaphysics and a defense of a Christian imagination.
Miłosz i Lévinas – modernistyczny dwugłos o zadaniach literatury
Authors: Telicki Marcin
Published: July 2018

The article examines a parallel between Emmanuel Lévinas’s and Czesław Miłosz’s philosophical reflection about the duties of literature. The common ground can be found in Lévinas’s well-known idea of encountering the Other through the Face. This form of communication, which is by no means easy, is given extra depth by liminal experiences of transience and death. As the examples from the second part of this article show these experiences seem to mark the greatest achievements of twentieth-century literature. Finally, the question is asked about the two writers’ views on the place of philosophy and reflection on transcendence. Even though they do not see eye to eye on these points, the plurality of values and judgments expressed by them should not compel us to classify their work as completely disparate and incomparable.
Przyszłość poezji Czesława Miłosza – warunki i możliwości (dys)kontynuacji
Authors: Kałuża Anna
Published: July 2018

This article attempts to position Czesław Miłosz’s beyond the borders of poetic modernism. The argument is based on a conjectural transfer of Miłosz’s work into the future, ie. putting it into the context of authors making their debut after 1989. This mental experiment assumes the both the continuous existence of the humanist tradition of poetry and its reconfiguration in the process of cultural change. Anchored in the traditions of high modernism, Miłosz’s poetry functions as a complement to the project of an anthropocentric art with its incontestable border between the human and the non-human. The relocation of his work out of its original sphere reveals that it does comprise an ‘anti-humanist’ element which, despite Miłosz’s efforts to displace it, gives rise to questions about the validity of the borderline between the human and the non-human world.
Jarosław Marek Rymkiewicz w cieniu Miłosza
Authors: Dembińska-Pawelec Joanna
Published: July 2018

This article tries to assess the influence of Czesław Miłosz on Jarosław Marek Rymkiewicz, whose poetic career - since his very debut - has developed in the shadow of his great predecessor. The complex bond and dialogically changeable relationship between the two poets are examined here with help of conceptual tools supplied by antithetical criticism, especially Harold Bloom’s ‘anxiety of influence’ theory. The article maps successive phases of Rymkiewicz’s poetic biography by matching them against a string of Miłosz’s poems. Already the poems in Rymkiewicz’s debut volume Konwencje (1957) (which includes a poem entitled ‘Czesław Miłosz’) show that his attitude towards his mentor is no means uniform. His responses range from a fascination which spurs creative effort, borrowings and imitation, to ironic dialogue, polemics, and gestures of rejection. Yet even in Rymkiewicz’s antithetical reactions one may detect traces of his youthful fascination with Czesław Miłosz’s Rescue (1945).
Eksperyment i awangarda. O „Różach w betonie” Mariana Promińskiego
Authors: Strycka Anna
Published: July 2018

This article begins with an examination of the experimental handling of the characters’ speech and Promiński’s narrative voice in the title story of the collection Roses in Concrete. The analysis draws on some elements of constructivism - as it can be found in the early poems by Tadeusz Peiper and in the constructivist prose written by Jan Brzękowski - with the 3M catchphrase (“City - Mass - Machine”) from Peiper’s famous manifesto lurking in the background. In his short story Promiński creates a situation which enables him to lampoon the projects and visions formulated by Peiper and the Cracow Avant-garde; the total effect of “Roses in Concrete” is that of demolishing Peiper’s utopia of a new civilization. The analysis of “A specialist, Almost”, another story from the collection, focuses an its autothematic structure, as well as Promiński’s use of new, experimental narrative techniques (eg. simultaneous description, stream of consciousness). The discussion of the stream of consciousness technique reaches out to “Cracks”, a story where it marks the main character’s speech. The last of the stories taken up for discussion is “Timbert, the Traveller”, a story concerned with a case of mental illness. Here the article draws on the work of R. D. Laing, Michel Foucault and Thomas S. Sasz to argue that Timbert’s problem is not really medical, but the product of socio-cultural stereotyping and stigmatization.
„Uniwersalny” umysł i historia. Zagadnienia historycznoliterackie w narratologii kognitywistycznej
Authors: Rembowska-Płuciennik Magdalena
Published: July 2018

The cognivist criticism in literary studies is often accused of ignoring historic contexts, unwarranted preference for a synchronic approach, and universalization of its own theses. However, there are some branches of cognitism that try to combine analytical categories peculiar to studies of cognition and the human mind with issues of the history and transformation of the language of literature. This article presents a choice of suggestions aimed at expanding a cognitive study of literary narration to include a historical dimension. They are focused on historical models of access to the Other’s inner experience to be found in various types of narrative, the ways in which ‘the body’s transparency’ is matched by ‘the mind’s transparency’, and the identification of historical markers of either concept.
Miasto jako labirynt. Obraz Tel-Aviwu-Jaffy w „Piotrusiu” Leo Lipskiego
Authors: Tarnowska Beata
Published: July 2018

This article examines the urban themes in Leo Lipski’s micro-novel Piotruś: An ApocryphalTale from 1960. The narrative relies on both traditional realism (for the most part) and the 20thcentury subjective point-of-view technique to represent urban space, which in this case belongs to be a well-defined geographical location. The use of personalized narrative perspective turns the urban space of Tel Aviv-Jafa - heterogeneous and subject to differing assessments - into a labyrinth, closed, dense, expanding horizontally, chthonic, and alien.

Published: July 2018

Food security issue after 2008 global-crisis is something relate with the climate change phenomenon which had worsened on the last few decades. The impact of global climate change can be seen from the fluctuation of main crops production yield in tropical countries. This has affected the food price fluctuations particularly on the grain price, both international and domestic markets. The rice-commodity, known for its thin market characteristics, is now also experiencing the fluctuation of production, its productivity and also the rice price. Considering the importance of rice as the main staple food in Indonesia, the purpose of this research is to identify the Indonesiaâ€™s rice price fluctuation (volatility) and to investigate how far climate change affects the Indonesian paddy production and rice price volatility. By applying monthly time-series data from 2007 to 2014, this research used ARCH-GARCH methods to find out the rice price volatility and VECM (Vector Error Correction Model) to investigate the impact of climate change phenomenon on the Indonesian paddy production, as well as rice price volatility both in the short-run and long-run. The result is important for the stakeholders and government in preventing the risk and uncertainty condition of paddy production and rice price fluctuation caused by climate change
The estimation of GHG emissions for hotels in Asian Institute of Technology and Chiang Mai Hill 2000, Thailand
Authors: Supansa Luansak
Published: July 2018

In the tourism sector, hotel industry is one of the most important sub-sector. This hotel industry emits greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions mainly carbon dioxide (CO2) by consuming large amount of energy, water, and non-renewable resources in service operation everyday on basis. This paper presents results of analysis how much does the GHG emissions release in hotel. The Asian Institute of Technology Conference Center and Chiang Mai Hill 2000, Chiang Mai, Thailand have successfully estimated GHG emissions by using Bilan CarboneÂ® tool. The mitigation options are to encourage low carbon dioxide hotels. The data collection was done by questionnaires, interviews, and observations in both of them hotels. The results of annual GHG emissions contributor both Chiang Mai Hill 2000 as 3,844 t CO2 and at AITCC about 1,011 t CO2. Energy use is a major emission contributor followed by travel, property, input material, waste generated, and freight. Higher number of guests/tourists flow, effected higher used of facilities such as electricity, air conditioning, lighting, and food & beverage. Larger size hotel service quality, greater guest room service, wide range of building area, greater facilities, and large functional are consumed higher energy and materials. As well as, the higher rate of room turning can also increase of emissions. Moreover, Chiang Mai Hill 2000 tends to take transportation which have longer distance than AITCC. Therefore, increasing higher journal distance generated higher GHG emissions as well. The short term and long term mitigation plans can also be taken into consideration to reduce GHG emissions. The recommendation of short term mitigation plans can be applied directly in both hotels thus, increasing awareness about climate change and energy conservation among uses. The long term mitigation plans recommends to give â€œGreen Hotelâ€ award to successful hotels for reducing GHG emissions in hotel. These plans can be incorporated the Thailandâ€™s government policy to reduce the impacts of climate change to the hotel industry.Â

Calli is one of the materials used for genetic transformation. Studies on calli induction in some pepper genotypes were conducted in the Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, Andalas University, Padang. This study aimed to obtain calli which can be used as material for genetic transformation. We used three genotypes of chili (Kopay, Kampung and Trisula). Explants were derived from first leaf, cotyledon, epycotyl and hypocotyl obtained from 24 days old chili germination. The study found that all the explants were able to produced calli. From 17 combinations of medium, the two combinations that produced 100% calli were MS + BAP + IAA + L2 vitamin and MS + 2,4 D. Mediums that can produce organogenic calli were MS + BAP 4 mg / L, IAA 0.5 mg / L, L2 vitamin ( Pyridoxin hydroklorit 0.5 g / L Â and Thiamin hydroklorit 0.1 mg / L). The colour of calli produced were yellowish green and compact. The study also found that structures develop with a globular phase, followed by a heart shape, torpedo, cotyledonary and eventually form buds. While MS + 2.4 D 4 mg / L produced yellowish white calli and crumb, it could not grow organogenic calli.

The study examined the effectiveness of Personal Income Tax Administration in the rural communities, focusing on assessment and revenue collection methods, effectiveness and efficiency of Relevant Tax Authorities. 125 copies of questionnaire were administered on respondents. Descriptive statistics was used to analyse the opinions of key stakeholders directly connected with Direct and Minimum Tax Assessments in six selected Local Government Areas in Ogun State, Nigeria. Testing of the hypotheses for the study was done using both simple and multiple regression analysis. The findings from the study indicate that tax assessment method significantly encourages voluntary enrolment into the tax net and that effective collection method adopted by the relevant tax authorities ensures optimal tax revenue collection. The study recommends that government should intensify its enlightenment programmes and to introduce awards for recognition of the best rural taxpayers.

The aim of this paper is to study the Romanian rural employment and its perspective to achieve the decent work goals. The United Nation’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development aims to ‘promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all’ (Goal 8 of 17, 2015). The decent work is a desideratum that reflects on the wellbeing of the population. The ILO’s Rural Employment and Decent Work Programme aims at minimizing rural decent work deficits that include higher rates of un- and under-employment (especially among youth and women); an alarming prevalence of child labour; a higher incidence of precarious work as wage work is mostly seasonal or casual; widespread informal activities; limited social protection; exposure to adverse working conditions due to poor labour standards coverage and monitoring; and little or no unionization or social dialogue

In the general context, the phenomenon of globalization causes an increase in risks to critical infrastructures. In order to order this set, the criteria of dependence and interdependence were imposed. Thus, was proposed a model with seven levels, the first being sector analysis and the second one the study of interdependencies.The first level is organized in critical sectors and dependencies between them. This division, which engendered the public-private partnership, is show on the EU and NATO documents. The second level of the interdependence study aims to determine the vital elements and essential components of a system. In this paper we show some considerations on the dimensionality of interdependencies between critical infrastructures, interdependence between critical infrastructures from the energy sector and Information and Communication Technology (ICT). After a breakdown of SCADA systems, we presented at the end of the paper few examples of cybernetic attack against energy infrastructures
HUMAN RIGHTS RELATED TO THE RIGHT TO RELIGION AND ECONOMY IN THE CONFLUENCE OF CULTURES

Published: July 2018

The paper is focused on the authors’ opinion, based on deep research, that religion and education go side by side and could help a lot and should be the basic law for the development, rural or urban, against the background of the nowadays European challenges. Europe confronts today with oncoming waves of immigrants from all over the world who have been invading it for several years, bringing with them cultures, customs, observances, different in many ways from ours. Under these circumstances, the authors would like to highlight their point of view, mainly the idea that the words of Martin Luther King Jr.: “Hate paralyzes life; love releases it. Hate confuses life; love harmonizes it”, are much more true than ever. To keep an open mind on religious education, to be flexible, loving and understanding should be of vital importance in developing rural communities against the background of the European competitiveness.
REPUTATION AND TRUST IN SHARING ECONOMY PLATFORMS: THE CASE OF TRAITY
Authors: MARTINEZ-POLO Josep M , MARTÍNEZ-SÁNCHEZ Jesús
Published: July 2018

The concept of reputation is assiduously used in various fields such as communication, public relations, advertising, marketing and management. The convergence between the rise of new technologies linked to corporate communication has favoured the birth of what has been called online reputation. Thus, unprecedented behaviours have been generated that are establishing new social forms and even some authors speak of a new economy of reputation where society would be highly connected through networks and organizations that would operate in an ecosystem of permanent influence from the interest groups. With this premise, Traity arises the project that we analyzed in our research and that raises a reputational score that takes advantage of the fingerprint information to reproduce online trust as we understand it in the physical world, but without trying to reduce its people into a percentage, a number or some stars.
Relaciones cívico-militares, negociaciones de paz y postconflicto en Colombia
Authors: Cruz Rodríguez Edwin
Published: July 2018

Este artículo examina las relaciones cívico-militares en el marco de las actuales negociaciones de paz en Colombia e identifica algunos de los posibles retos para un eventual postconflicto. La política de seguridad democrática del gobierno Uribe (2002-2010) produjo una subordinación desinstitucionalizada de las ff. aa. al poder civil y reac- tivó la Doctrina de Seguridad Nacional, desconociendo el conflicto armado para diagnosticarlo como una amenaza terrorista, lo cual ha generado una serie de problemas al posterior gobierno de Juan Manuel Santos (2010-2014), en su intento por mantener la subordinación en el con- texto del proceso de paz. Estos problemas se ven reforza- dos por la oposición que el expresidente y actual senador Uribe ha realizado a las negociaciones, puesto que en su empeño ha intentado politizar distintos sectores milita- res. Por consiguiente, el postconflicto plantea el reto de realizar una reestructuración integral de las ff. aa. que permita un control democrático de estas instituciones.
Familia y conflicto armado. Deconstrucción de la noción de víctima en el occidente de Boyacá

Published: July 2018

Este artículo expone la arbitrariedad de los criterios de exclu- sión por parentesco consanguíneo utilizados en la Ley 1448 de 2011 para que una persona sea considerada víctima indirecta en Colombia, y que invisibilizan a las víctimas que pertenecen a familias no convencionales. Aquí se articulan los conceptos víc- tima y familias atípicas, a fin de establecer un diálogo de cate- gorías cuya intersección posibilite visibilizar a las víctimas del conflicto pertenecientes a familias no convencionales, a partir de la averiguación de tres ideas básicas pero inexploradas: a) la familia no es típica en el conflicto armado; b) El conflicto armado genera otros tipos de familia diferentes a los que la ley tradi- cionalmente ha considerado; c) el concepto de la familia como víctima del conflicto armado.This article exposes the arbitrariness of the exclusion criteria for blood kinship used in 1448 than 2011 law for a person to be considered indirect victims in Colombia, making invisible victims who belong to unconventional families. Here the terms “victim” and “atypical families” articulate, to establish a dialogue of visible categories whose intersection enables victims of con- flict belonging to non-conventional families, introducing the in- vestigation of three basic but unexplored ideas: a) the family is not typical in armed conflict; b) The armed conflict generates other types of family different from what the law has tradition- ally been considered; c) the concept of the family as victims of the armed conflict.
Femicide and Criminal Law
Authors: Benavides Vanegas Farid Samir
Published: July 2018

The crime of homicide is said to have an aggravating cir- cumstance when it is committed due to the “fact of be- ing a woman.” In Colombia, only until the 4th of March 2015, The Supreme Court of Justice, for the first time, addressed a case in which a penalty with an aggravating circumstance of this nature was imposed, establishing the relevant factors to constitute this type of crime. The present text analyses the crime of femicide within a wider context of violence against women just as the concepts of gender-based violence, violence against women and fi- nally, sexual assault and femicide; these concepts are ana- lyzed with the purpose of showing the different factors involved in this phenomenon. El delito de homicidio tiene una agravante que se configu- ra cuando el delito se comete por “el hecho de ser mujer”. En Colombia, solo hasta el 4 de marzo de 2015 la Corte Suprema de Justicia se ocupó por primera vez de un caso en el cual se daba aplicación a la agravante, y determinó los elementos que son importantes para su configuración. En este texto analizo el concepto de feminicidio dentro de un contexto más amplio de violencia contra la mujer, al igual que los conceptos de violencia de género, violencia contra la mujer y, finalmente, violencia sexual y feminici- dio, todo ello con el propósito de mostrar los diferentes elementos que están alrededor de este fenómeno.

Tensión entre la verdad y la justicia en el marco de la justicia transicional
Authors: Silva Aguilar Carlos Ariel , Alfonso Beltrán Ignacio Humberto
Published: July 2018

A través de la Ley 975 de 2005,4 y en busca de culminar el conflicto armado interno, Colombia decidió acoger el modelo de justicia transicional con miras a promover la desmovilización de grupos armados al margen de la ley. Esta postura se plantea nuevamente en el acuerdo de paz firmado el 24 de noviembre de 2016, entre el Gobierno y las farC, decisión que implica apartarse de la jurisdicción ordinaria y abrigarse en una solución alternativa. La justicia transicional se particulariza por generar concesiones entre las partes y flexibilizar la justicia, para el caso concreto (en el entendido que una de las partes es el Estado) con el fin de materializar también otros principios, como el de la verdad. De allí la surgió la pregunta: ¿Debe el principio de la justicia ceder ante el principio de la verdad en el marco de la justicia transicional? Interrogante al que se buscó dar respuesta a través del instrumento alexiano, esto es, la fórmula de la ponderación, para establecer cuál de los dos principios debe prevalecer. Al finalizar este estudio se concluyó que, en efecto, en el marco de la justicia transicional, la verdad prevalece sobre la justicia, pero en un escenario aparente porque en realidad, el principio de la justicia no se transgrede para privilegiar el de verdad, solo muta para fortalecerlo.
Los derechos humanos y su efectividad en el escenario de la democracia participativa y la globalización
Authors: Saza Sánchez Henry Alberto
Published: July 2018

Acerca de derechos humanos es mucho lo que hay por decir, sin embargo, nada es tan importante como su efectividad. A menudo sucede con las normas jurídicas, que si bien se encuentran claramente establecidas, posteriormente su aplicación se dificulta, debido a la complejidad misma de la realidad social. Es así como en la actualidad el fenómeno de la globalización, con todo y las transformaciones que ha generado, interviene de manera directa en la garantía de los derechos, auspiciando algunos y afectando otros. Del mismo modo, debe acentuarse el papel de la democracia participativa en este proceso en el que los ciudadanos re- sultan siendo los principales interesados y en quienes reside la soberanía, por precepto constitucional, para tomar las decisiones.
