In the era of globalization, a qualified workforce is required to compete across various fields. Professional skills are necessary to enhance company productivity. However, the reality is that a lack of understanding regarding the skills needed in the job market leads to a mismatch with educational outcomes. The unemployment rate in Indonesia is a serious issue, particularly among university graduates. It is important for students to have internship experiences that can help them prepare for the workforce to address this issue. Internship experiences, job interest, and self-efficacy play significant roles in improving students' job readiness. This research aims to identify the relationship between internship experiences, job interest, and self-efficacy on students' job readiness. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to students of FEBI UIN Raden Mas Said Surakarta who had previously participated in fieldwork practices. The analytical method used to test construct validity, instrument reliability, and the relationships between variables is Partial Least Squares (PLS). The results of this study are expected to provide insights into the influence of internship experiences, job interest, and self-efficacy on students' job readiness.

Published: February 2025

Alzheimer?s disease (AD) is an incurable and progressive neurodegenerative
disorder that causes cognitive capabilities and memory loss and damage to
brain functionality and structure. From diverse possibilities for drug
development, inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) remains as dominant
treatment of symptoms. In our continued investigation of long-chain
derivatives of 4-aminoquinoline containing an adamantyl (Ad) group, six new
derivatives that differ in the substitution at the terminal amino group or
the Ad moiety were synthesised. Their inhibition of AChE, in silico
drug-likeness, the potential for passing through the blood-brain barrier
(BBB) and possible binding modes with AChE for the most active compounds
were investigated. It was shown that introducing OH, Br or acetamide group
increases inhibitory potency compared with less polar compounds containing
the benzyl group as the second substituent at the amino group. Analysis of
in silico obtained parameters defined by Lipinsky's rule showed that neither
compound is likely to cross the BBB because of violation of at least one of
the rules, in general, log P and a number of rotatable bonds (RB). Docking
of the most active compounds to AChE suggests that compounds act as
dual-binding site inhibitors since they have simultaneous interaction with
catalytic and peripheral anionic sites of AChE. Substituents on the Ad could
be the ones that determine the mode of binding into the enzyme and provide
interactions that stabilise the complex between the compound and AChE.

Authors: Pavel Cecilia
Published: February 2025

This study presents results of the research of the archival documentation on
the life and activity of the Romanian composer Grigore Nica (1936-2009).
Starting from the files kept in the archives of the Union of Romanian
Composers and Musicologists, National University of Music Bucharest, and the
National Council for the Study of the Securitate Archives, to the personal
correspondence and interviews I have conducted with some of his colleagues,
I have traced the composer?s personal and professional path, emphasizing his
imprisonment in 1952-1953, the consequences of this traumatic experience,
and the strained relationship he had with the communist regime throughout
his life, until his emigration to the USA, in 1990.

Diabetic neuropathic pain is associated with elevated plasma levels of methylglyoxal (MGO). MGO is a metabolite of glycolysis that causes pain hypersensitivity in mice by stimulating the phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 2α (p-eIF2α) and subsequently activating the integrated stress response (ISR). We first established that Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats have enhanced MGO signaling, engage the ISR, and develop pain hypersensitivity. Since nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) regulates the expression of antioxidant proteins that neutralize MGO, we hypothesized that fumarates, like diroximel fumarate (DRF), will stimulate Nrf2 signaling, and prevent MGO-induced ISR and pain hypersensitivity. DRF (100 mg/kg) treated animals were protected from developing MGO (20 ng) induced mechanical and cold hypersensitivity. Mechanistically, DRF treatment protected against MGO-induced increase in p-eIF2α levels in the sciatic nerve and reduced loss of intraepidermal nerve fiber (IENF) density. Using Nrf2-knockout mice we demonstrate that Nrf2 is necessary for the anti-nociceptive effects of DRF. Co-treatment of MGO (1µM) with monomethyl fumarate (MMF) (10, 20, 50 µM), the active metabolite of DRF, prevented the ISR in both mouse and human DRG neurons. Our data show that targeting Nrf2 with DRF is a strategy to potentially alleviate pain associated with elevated MGO levels.
Research on Fast and Efficient Virtual Sample Delivery Method of Tire Mechanical Characteristics
Authors: Yang Wenhao , Dang Lu
Published: February 2025

To address the challenges of lengthy development cycles and high testing costs in matching tire and vehicle mechanical characteristics, a fast and efficient virtual sampling method for tire mechanical properties is proposed. First, a detailed finite element model is established according to the material distribution diagram and material properties of the tire. Second, under the premise of ensuring simulation accuracy, structural simplifications and friction simplifications are applied to the detailed finite element model. A finite element friction subroutine is incorporated to accurately express the dynamic friction characteristics between the tire tread and the road surface. Then, the pure cornering and pure driving/braking mechanical characteristics of the tire are obtained through finite element simulations. With a high-precision combined-condition tire mechanical property prediction method, fast and accurate predictions of combined-condition forces and torques are made. Finally, the MF tire model is identified based on the data obtained from the finite element model and the prediction method. The results show that the finite element model can accurately obtain the lateral force, longitudinal force, and aligning moment of the tire in pure cornering and pure driving/braking, with an average accuracy of 93.4%, 88.4%, and 80.7%, respectively. Based on the pure condition data obtained from the tire finite element model, the mechanical properties under combined conditions are predicted, with average prediction accuracies of 92.82% for longitudinal force and 91.38% for lateral force. The predicted aligning torque exhibits a trend consistent with experimental results. The MF model is identified using the data from the tire finite element model and prediction method, achieving good accuracy for both forces and torques. The fast and efficient virtual sampling method for tire mechanical properties not only effectively shortens development cycles and reduces testing costs but also, by combining finite element models with predictive methods, enables the advancement of tire mechanical property development to the design stage, further enhancing the efficiency of virtual sampling for tire models.
FEDERALISMO FISCAL E TRANSFERÊNCIAS VOLUNTÁRIAS DA UNIÃO AOS MUNICÍPIOS BRASILEIROS
Authors: Andrade Rafael Resende de , Caldas Antônio Vinícius Silva
Published: February 2025

Este estudo investiga como os indicadores socioeconômicos e os fatores políticos relacionados à identidade partidária dos gestores públicos influenciam, à luz da teoria do federalismo fiscal, a alocação de transferências voluntárias da União aos municípios brasileiros no período de 2010 e 2021. Utilizando uma abordagem quantitativa com análise descritiva, usando como técnica de análise regressões em painel de efeito misto para análise dos 5.570 munícipios brasileiros, o que resultou em um modelo de previsão para essas transferências. Os resultados indicam que a identidade partidária entre o Presidente e o prefeito afeta significativamente a distribuição dos recursos, favorecendo municípios com maior PIB ou PIB per capita. Em contrapartida, indicadores socioeconômicos, como IDHM e IDSC, não apresentam impacto relevante na alocação desses recursos. O estudo contribui para a compreensão das dinâmicas do federalismo fiscal no Brasil, sugerindo a necessidade de revisão dos critérios de distribuição desses recursos. Além disso, os achados reforçam a relação entre interesses políticos e alocação de recursos públicos, ampliando o debate sobre transferências intergovernamentais discricionárias.

Published: February 2025

Os preços do cacau têm apresentado uma trajetória ascendente desde o final de 2023, aproximando-se dos patamares das décadas de 1970 e 1980, impulsionando o mercado produtivo em níveis nacional e internacional. Esse aumento reflete a crescente relevância dessa commodity no cenário agrícola global e um novo ciclo de valorização. Com o objetivo de compreender melhor esses movimentos, este estudo analisa a evolução da produção de cacau na Bahia, bem como os impactos da concorrência internacional. No cenário global, Costa do Marfim, Gana e Indonésia são os principais produtores, respondendo por quase 70% da produção mundial, que em 2022 alcançou 6 milhões de toneladas. O Brasil ocupa a sexta posição global, com 4,6% da produção total, e a Bahia se destaca como a maior produtora e exportadora, com 46,9% da produção nacional em 2023 e 54,4% das exportações totais (tanto em quantidade e valor) em 2024. Nos países líderes, o cultivo do cacau é predominantemente monocultivos, o que favorece maior produtividade a curto prazo, porém com impactos ambientais no longo prazo, como degradação do solo e perda de biodiversidade. No sul da Bahia, as práticas de cultivo são consideradas sustentáveis, especialmente pelo uso do sistema cabruca, que permite a preservação da biodiversidade e maior equilíbrio ecológico. Essas práticas fortalecem o Brasil como um produtor competitivo e sustentável, consolidando sua importância no mercado global de cacau.

The study was conducted during October, 2023 to March, 2024 at ICAR-National Research Centre for Grapes, Pune, Maharashtra, India to assess the leaf area requirement of Clone-2A grape variety. The experiment was laid out using Randomized Block Design (RBD) with variation in leaf on a fruit-bearing shoot such as 10,12,14,16 and >16 leaves above the bunch as five treatment replicated five times. The parameters measured were leaf area, leaf area index (LAI), photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, chlorophyll content, average bunch weight, berry weight, yield vine-1, total soluble solids (TSS) and acidity. Maximum bunch weight (450.60 g), 50-berry weight (182.60 g), TSS (18.25°B) and yield vine-1 (19.46 kg) were recorded in 14 leaves shoot-1 above the bunch treatment.  The highest photosynthetic activity such as assimilation rate (11.25 µmol CO2 m-2 s-1) and transpiration rate (2.85 mmol H2O m-2 s-1) and total chlorophyll content (35.28 mg ml-1) was observed in the same treatment.  Minimum bunch weight (380.10 g), 50-berry weight (155.22 g), TSS (16.60°B) and yield vine-1 (16.38 kg) were observed in >16 leaves above the bunch treatment. However, retaining 14 leaves above the bunch in a shoot with 2861.42 cm2 leaf area shoot-1, 85842.60 cm2 leaf area vine-1 and 1988.00 cm2 leaf area bunch-1 were found sufficient for quality grape production in Clone-2A grape variety spaced at 9×5 ft2 distance.

An investigation was carried out during the period from June, 2021 to February, 2022 at the College of Horticulture, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani, Maharashtra (431 402), India, to study the effect of different growing media and bioagent applications on the growth and survival of mango grafts (Mangifera indica L.) cv. Kesar. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with thirteen treatments replicated thrice. The treatment combination of Orchard soil, Farm Yard Manure (FYM), and Vermicompost (1:1:1) with Biomix 1% showed a significant increase in the height of grafts (24.24 cm, 28.25 cm, 31.38 cm, and 34.33 cm), length of scion (16.75 cm, 20.16 cm, 23.39 cm, and 24.58 cm), number of leaves (7.33, 10.72, 13.78, and 15.69), and leaf area (13.36 cm², 19.75 cm², 23.56 cm², and 28.79 cm²) at 30, 60, 90, and 120 days after grafting (DAG), respectively. The same treatment also recorded the highest survival percentages (87.06%, 83.17%, 78.33%, and 74.31%) at 30, 60, 90, and 120 DAG, respectively. Moreover, it resulted in the minimum number of days required for sprouting (10.52 days) and the highest success percentage (74.31%), as well as the maximum root length (24.60 cm), fresh and dry weights of roots (14.38 g and 8.78 g, respectively), and fresh and dry weights of shoots (24.53 g and 17.25 g, respectively) at 120 DAG. This indicates that the media combination of orchard soil, FYM, vermicompost (1:1:1) with Biomix 1% is highly effective in promoting the growth and survival of mango grafts.
Revisión sistemática de método mixto sobre la medición de felicidad en el trabajo
Authors: Garduño Realivazquez Karla Alejandra , Núñez Ramírez Marco Alberto , Sánchez Bañuelos María Nélida
Published: February 2025

La felicidad en el trabajo es un tema de gran interés para académicos de diversas regiones del mundo, quienes han intentado definir y evaluar este constructo mediante instrumentos que miden factores como la satisfacción laboral, el compromiso organizacional, el bienestar subjetivo, las emociones y los afectos. Sin embargo, no está claro si estos elementos, en conjunto, pueden determinar con precisión cuán feliz se siente una persona en su trabajo. Por lo tanto, este estudio llevó a cabo una revisión de literatura con un enfoque mixto sobre la medición de la felicidad en el trabajo, analizando un total de 22 artículos académicos extraídos de las bases de datos Scopus y WoS. Se identificó la evolución temporal de las publicaciones, el impacto de citación, la co-ocurrencia de palabras clave, las estrategias de medición empleadas, así como las variables, dimensiones e instrumentos utilizados. Los resultados evidenciaron que los países hispanohablantes y asiáticos presentan una mayor productividad en este campo, predominando el uso de metodologías cuantitativas y técnicas estadísticas vinculadas a la validez de constructo. Respecto a los instrumentos de medición, se identificaron tres categorías: escalas diseñadas para evaluar la felicidad general, instrumentos que integran aspectos organizacionales y herramientas que miden la felicidad en el trabajo de manera unidimensional. Se concluye que el constructo "felicidad en el trabajo" es un concepto abstracto y subjetivo, lo que dificulta su medición precisa.
The effect of national identity and collective victimhood on south Koreans’ perception of trilateral cooperation
Authors: Lim Jungbin , Kim Dongkyu
Published: February 2025

Introduction. Mutual intimacy among the citizens of the three countries – South Korea, Japan, and China – continues to be low. To facilitate trilateral cooperation, it is important to understand public perception towards cooperation. Purpose. examines how psychological factors of national identification and collective victimhood affect Koreans’ perception and attitudes toward China and Japan. Materials and methods. A survey on 320 participants of Korean nationality was conducted using an online questionnaire to measure national identification, collective victimhood, perceived social norms, and preferences for international policies. Results. Descriptive statistics show that while most Koreans perceived anti-Chinese and anti-Japanese sentiments as a social norm, participants held more positive attitudes towards them on a personal level. In addition, participants with lower degrees of national identification and collective victimhood, showed more positive attitudes towards Chinese and Japanese and higher preference for diplomatic policies over military policies. Discussion. The findings underscore the complexity of intergroup relations in the trilateral context. Despite widespread perceptions of hostility towards Chinese and Japanese, individual attitudes show that many Koreans are open to forming friendships across these national boundaries. This discrepancy suggests a disconnection between perceived social norms and personal beliefs, highlighting the potential for improved interpersonal relations through targeted initiatives. Promoting positive individual interactions may encourage broader acceptance and diminish the emotional appeals of nationalism that lead to parochial attitudes and conformity to social norms that support hostility. As evidenced by Germany's post-conflict reconciliation, structured social and cultural exchanges, supported by legal frameworks, can create a conducive environment for peace and collaboration. While the Trilateral Cooperation Secretariat has made strides in improving diplomatic relations, sustained efforts at both individual and societal levels are essential. Increased interaction and exchanges among the citizens of South Korea, Japan, and China can reduce prejudice and promote cooperation, ultimately fostering a more harmonious trilateral relationship
Features of Social Intelligence of Adolescents with Different Types of Victimization Behavior
Authors: Kolchik E. Y.
Published: February 2025

Introduction. The main factors influencing the realization of victim behavior include violations of emotional interaction between parents and children, as well as the lack of a certain educational strategy. It is revealed that social intelligence significantly reduces the risk of victimization behavior due to expressed empathy.Objective. To study the peculiarities of social intelligence of adolescents with a pronounced propensity to victimizing behavior.Materials and methods. The study used diagnostic techniques, including observation, conversation, the use of standardized methods (O. O. Andronnikova's method of diagnosing victimization behavior, J. Guilford's method of diagnosing social intelligence and M. A. Odintsova's questionnaire "Type of role victimization"). Statistical processing methods such as Spearman's rank correlation criterion and Mann-Whitney U-criterion were used to analyze the data.Results. For adolescents with high victimhood as a characterological trait is characterized by the blurring of moral and moral guidelines, the prevalence of non-constructive styles of behavior, expressed fickleness in mood, vulnerability. Adolescents with a low level of victimhood are characterized by a positive emotional background, more pronounced satisfaction with daily activities and more pronounced emotional control. The correlation between the features of social intelligence, the level of social intelligence development and manifestations of victimization behavior has been found. The main components of social intelligence, which play a key role in the formation of confident behavior as opposed to victim behavior, are outlined.Discussion. The growing level of uncertainty in modern society causes the general victimization of the population, where adolescents are the most vulnerable social category. Vulnerability in this age period is manifested in categorical thinking, increased sensitivity to stressors and perception of problems and difficulties as insoluble. As the adolescent develops unfavorable social conditions, these traits act as risk factors, and the sense of victimhood is formed as one of the features of the personality character. A sufficient level of social intelligence, which consists in the ability to predict the behavior of another person, taking into account the logic of the situation, as well as in the identification of common essential features in the non-verbal behavior of a person, allows the formation of confident behavior as the opposite of victimhood.
Strategy to Achieve Indonesia’s Nationally Determined Contribution Target by Developing a Sustainable Carbon Market
Authors: Askandar Almaida , Putro Utomo Sarjono
Published: February 2025

Climate change has become a global concern, and as a reaction to global climate change, 196 parties, including Indonesia, have adopted the Paris Agreement to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, a legally enforceable international convention on climate change. The carbon market is expected to help Indonesia meet its Nationally Determined Contribution (“NDC”) target in alignment with the requirements of the Paris Agreement. IDXCarbon, the first licensed carbon market in Indonesia, was launched on September 26, 2023. During the launch, the President of the Republic of Indonesia stated that the potential of the carbon market can reach a value of IDR 3000 trillion or more. The carbon emissions in Indonesia require urgent attention and prompt action from the regulator, given that Indonesia is ranked as the 7th largest emitter globally. For many years, air pollution in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, has been classified as unhealthy. IDXCarbon is expected to contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Indonesia. Nearly a year after its launch, the carbon trading volume in IDXCarbon remains relatively small. The business issue in this study is how to develop a sustainable carbon market in Indonesia, which will ultimately support Indonesia in achieving its NDC target. This paper focuses on: i) analyzing regulations regarding carbon market ecosystem, including its background, ii) identifying IDXCarbon’s existing products, iii) analyzing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) of IDXCarbon, (iv) identifying IDXCarbon’s main stakeholders’ concerns, v) identifying business practices of carbon market and comparison with carbon market in several countries, and analyzing vi) political, economic, sociocultural, technological, legal, environmental (or ecological) (PESTLE) related to carbon market analysis. Finally, this study develops SWOT Matrix and provides improvement suggestions and proposed actions for consideration of IDXCarbon to develop a sustainable carbon market. The necessary improvement suggestions and proposed actions are treated as the business solution. By executing the implementation plan, the author believes IDXCarbon will become a sustainable carbon market that can help Indonesia meet its NDC target.

Milorad Dodik’s metamorphosis and the hijacking of the Dayton peace agreement
Authors: Ulbrichtová Michaela
Published: February 2025

Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) is currently facing a situation where the rule of law (whose promotion and strengthening is one of the European Union’s main priorities in BiH and the wider Western Balkan region), has become an area for the further destabilisation of the country’s political and security situation by dominant local political actors, as the case of Milorad Dodik shows. The reactions of some International Community actors (e.g., the High Representative Christian Schmidt), who aim to prevent further destabilisation, are subsequently questioned, as their (and their decisions’) legitimacy is downplayed by local BiH actors and significant states (e.g., China and the Russian Federation). The aim of this article was thus not only to examine the logic behind Dodik’s long-term political strategy in BiH, but also to demonstrate his capability to subvert the system established by the Dayton Peace Agreement (DPA) via standard legislative procedure, for the sake of securing his own power position in the country’s political environment. It also analyses HR Schmidt’s use of illiberal means to reach liberal outcomes, and his response to Dodik’s activities of June and July 2023. The unique insights from thirty-nine personalised semi-structured interviews, which took place in parts of BiH (Sarajevo, Mostar, Banja Luka, and Tešanj) in May, June, October and November 2023, and January and February 2024, as part of the author’s ethnographic research, are presented in the article. The interviewed individuals have backgrounds in academia, culture, media and local politics. The analysis demonstrates that Dodik’s actions should be interpreted within the broader context of BiH’s political landscape, where ethno-nationalism is intertwined with power distribution and formalised by the provisions outlined in the DPA. Although his secessionist rhetoric has intensified since 2021, Dodik’s political strategy has pragmatic contours, which means that global geopolitical developments could play a more significant role in deepening the political crisis in BiH. A return to greater interventionism from current HR Schmidt is therefore not an adequate panacea for the country’s ongoing political complexities.
Erosion of civilizational consensus: Armenian state discourse
Authors: Ter-Ghazaryan Levon
Published: February 2025

Recent events in the post-Soviet space show the inertial continuity of the struggle faced by former Soviet member states between their axiomatic approach to their sovereign statehood and the factual challenges they confront. The result of this process is continuous socio-economic destabilization and frequent armed conflicts in the region, forcing the successor states to periodically implement a balancing and even rotational approach in their strategic orientation, along with a tendency to relocate basic pillars of their statehood to external actors who do not have a backup plan for their statehood in its sovereign form. Focusing on post-Soviet Armenia, the article argues that its statehood is predisposed to narrative-essentialism, which in its discursive form collapses under the pressure of a series of threats and events typical of sovereign state entities. The paper identifies the 2018 Velvet Revolution in Armenia and the subsequent 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War II as such events. As a consequence of these two events and the contradictory balancing-rotation policies of the current Armenian elites, is the discursive erosion of the Armenian civilizational consensus over its sovereign statehood.

Testicular dysfunction is a serious medical and social problem that leads to infertility, endocrine disorders and impaired sexual development. Existing treatment methods are often limited to surgery and replacement therapy that in its turn cannot restore the structural elements of already damaged testicular tissue fully. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the efficacy of allogeneic Sertoli cell transplantation as a treatment for testicular dysfunction caused by experimental cryptorchidism. Materials and methods used: a single-center experimental randomized controlled trial was conducted on 24 outbred rats that were subjected to abdominal cryptorchidism for 90 days, after which the animals were divided into three groups of 8 animals each. In the experimental group, the animals were injected with a medium containing undifferentiated Sertoli cells into the testes (“Group O”); animals from the control group 1 were injected with DMEM medium into the testes (“Group K”); and from the second control group 2 they’ve underwent the usual lowering of the testes into the scrotum (“Group K+B”). Ninety days after the lowering of the testes into the scrotum, the animals were taken out of the experiment and the testes were removed for subsequent histological examination. Results: the average testis weight 90 days after the transplantation of undifferentiated Sertoli cells in Group O was 530 milligrams which was significantly higher than the testis weight in the animals from both of the control groups. In animals from the control Group K, the average testis weight was statistically significantly lower than in animals from the experimental group and amounted to 282 mg (p=0.003). Also, in the experimental group of animals, 90 days after the transplantation, the seminiferous tubules were found with spermatogenesis completely restored in them. In both of the control groups, no signs of spermatogenesis restoration were recorded (p<0.001). Conclusion: undifferentiated Sertoli cells when transplanted into the testes are capable of forming the new seminiferous tubules and supporting spermatogenesis processes in them. The positive transplantation outcome was expressed as the increase in the weight of the testes compared to those of the control groups coupled with the presence of germ cells in the seminiferous tubules and differentiation processes in them.

Populational screening with TREC/KREC determination is a universal method for detecting severe combined immunodeficiency prior to the onset of infectious diseases. The prognostic significance of TREC/KREC low levels in preterm infants with secondary lymphopenia has not been sufficiently studied as yet. The purpose of this research was to determine the value of TREC/KREC indicators for predicting severe infections in preterm infants. Materials and methods used: the study was conducted on the basis of the Stavropol Krai Regional Clinical Perinatal Center (Stavropol, Stavropol Krai, Russia). An analysis of neonatal screening results for 100 preterm infants was conducted in Jan. 01, 2023-June 30, 2024, and clinical and laboratory data of 18 patients who were hospitalized in the ICU were studied retrospectively. Statistical analysis utilized the Mann-Whitney non-parametric test and ROC curve analysis. Results: among the causes of secondary lymphopenia not associated with congenital immune defects, preterm birth accounts for 77.8%. Preterm infants have reduced levels of TREC and KREC with statistically significant differences observed in those with gestational ages below 28 weeks. The median TREC in preterm infants admitted to the ICU was significantly lower than in the comparison group. A TREC value below 509 copies/105 may be used as a predictor for life-threatening infections. Conclusion: preterm infants with low and abnormal TREC/KREC values are at high risk for adverse outcomes and therefore require throughout and careful monitoring.
The “World-Man-Creator” Trinity as the Basis of the Value-Semantic System of Regional Culture of Altai
Authors:   Gorshkova, Gorshkova Vera S.
Published: February 2025

The object of the study is the regional culture of Altai as a reflection of the values that permeate the existence of man and society in the specified territory. The local value-semantic system is the embodiment of a peculiar “philosophy of place” and has the properties of spiritual consolidation of cultural bearers. The subject of the research is the value system in relation to the regional culture of Altai. Within the framework of the cultural and philosophical approach, the deep meanings of human existence, the harmonious interaction of Man with the surrounding nature, his native land, space, and the Universe are interpreted. Systematic and axiological approaches have made it possible to identify elements of the Altai regional culture and establish links between spiritual values at the civilizational and substantial levels with objects of existence. The hermeneutic approach helped to reveal the symbolic and symbolic content of individual cultural traditions and rituals of ethnic groups. The approaches used by the author in the analysis of the sources of regional culture of Altai allowed us to identify the cultural core – the trinity of “World-Man-Creator”. The proposed structure of local culture allows for a new understanding of the value-semantic system from the perspective of the worldview of cultural speakers. Being interconnected and interdependent, the “values of survival” and the “values of expression” of Man with Nature, the Creator, ensure the preservation of a unique cultural experience and its transmission to the next generations.
Mythologization of Science in the Works of Russian Philosophers
Authors:   Pacific State University, Fetisova Evgeniya N.
Published: February 2025

In the work, the author sets two main tasks: to show the dialectical relationship between science and mythology; and to examine the fact that Russian thinkers most naturally use the process of mythologization of science in their works. This issue has garnered interest in modern philosophy, particularly in the 20th century, especially following the recognition of the irrationalist ideas of A. Schopenhauer, S. Kierkegaard, F. Nietzsche, and A. Bergson. The emphasis is on Russian philosophy, since in the works of domestic philosophers’ science was deified and mythologized more strongly than in the works of their colleagues in the West, becoming that religious and philosophical justification with the help of which it is possible to transform society to the ideal. The author considers the mythologization of science as a non-standard intellectual practice that legitimizes rationality, thereby allowing a clear distinction between the concepts of “mythologization of science” and “near-scientific mythology”. Mythologization of science serves as a specific way to remove the contradiction of understanding of any phenomenon by bringing constructive meaning to it.

The author of this article addresses the issue of the spread of organized criminal groups as subjects of complicity in the activities of extremist and terrorist organizations, considers their direct impact on the power structures of society, which negatively affects the provision of political security through the elimination of potential and real threats in the state. The article pays particular attention to the emergence of organizational criminal groups, their acquisition of signs of terrorist and extremist; it establishes the relationship with them of other organized structures acting as accomplices. In addition, the author gives recommendations on preventing the spread of these negative phenomena in Russian society: in his opinion, it is necessary to carry out regular inspections of Muslim organizations by government officials, since they are potentially a place for the spread of radical Islamic ideas associated with terrorist acts.

The article discusses the need to create wholesale food markets in the Russian Federation. The wholesale food market is an effective market sales channel that will overcome the monopoly of retail chains, eliminate a significant number of unorganized intermediaries in the promotion of food, reduce the cost of circulation and stabilize prices, improve the quality and competitiveness of domestic food in the domestic market. According to experts, the creation of such markets in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation guarantees both national and regional food security. However, it is crucial to study the foreign experience in market creation during their organization. A special place in the article is given to the role of consumer cooperation in the formation and functioning of wholesale food markets. The presence of separate real estate facilities and the effective management of the existing property complex can be a good driver for the development of consumer cooperation in the regions and, accordingly, wholesale markets. The article includes analytical data on the market capacities of the regions in the Russian Federation and proposes infrastructure for a modern regional wholesale food market.
Temporary Totalitarian Constitution and Paraconstitution as Special Political-Legal Instruments of the XX Century
Authors:   Moscow Humanitarian Economic University, Krotov Andrey V.
Published: February 2025

The aim of the article is to study the peculiarities of constitutional construction in the focus of political and legal processes of the XX century. The example of the Constitution of the RSFSR of 1918 shows the specifics of totalitarian temporary constitution, in particular, the legalization of a number of political and legal instruments aimed at preserving the power of the ruling group; the arrangement of power on the basis of social disunity, etc. Further on the materials of the Constitution of the Weimar Republic of 1919 the peculiarities of paraconstitution as a special type of temporary constitution are revealed. In conclusion, the author comes to the conclusion that the above-mentioned types of constitutions are characterized as temporary not only by formal features, but first of all because they are not the product of the primary constituent power, i.e. they are not created by the population, but are the result of the activity of the ruling group or the opposition, which actually gained control over the process of creating the constitution and the legal order. Accordingly, there is no need to observe any statutory requirements (special procedure) for the abolition of such a constitution by the population as a permanent constituent power, which, in turn, makes it possible to project this approach to the change of modern constitutions. The author employed various methods of scientific inquiry, including comparative legal analysis, historical analysis, and doctrinal analysis. In the preparation of the article, the scientific works of R.C. van Caenegem, V.I. Lenin, and E.B. Pashukanis were used.

The article elucidates the essence of the principle of universality and equality pertaining to the establishment of tax incentives, a fundamental tenet for the implementation of socially equitable taxation in any nation. Existing scientific literature presents varying perspectives on the realization of this principle in the context of tax incentives, often highlighting the inherent inequality arising from the provision of any preferential treatment, including financial advantages. In this regard, the authors attempt to characterize the features of this principle, taking into account scientific doctrine, modern legislation and materials of judicial practice. The analysis ultimately concludes that the principle of universality and equality concerning tax incentives retains significant relevance for both theoretical discourse and practical legal application. This relevance stems from the absence of discriminatory bias in tax relations when granting preferential treatment, provided that such treatment is administered under equal conditions within specific, defined participant groups.

Authors:   Kuban State University, Samarkina Irina V. , Shevchenko Milana E. ,   Kuban State University
Published: February 2025

The article presents the results of a study of the content and role of the political and psychological context of the expansion of the political space of the Russian Federation using the example of new regions. The relevance of the research is determined by the large-scale and multilevel changes in Russia’s political space and the need to implement an effective policy for the development of new regions. The aim of the study is to identify the content of the political and psychological political processes that make up the context of the development of new regions of the Russian Federation and their impact on the processes of political integration. The theoretical basis of the research is an integrative model that combines the ideas of economic, spatial, and political-psychological approaches to analyze multilevel social and political-psychological processes in the context of expanding political space. Three types of political and psychological processes that make up the context of the expansion of the political space of the Russian Federation are identified: political socialization, political adaptation and political re-socialization. The results obtained allow us to take a number of steps to identify socio-cultural and psychological barriers to the integration of new regions into the Russian Federation.
Some Problems of the Current State and Development Trends of Approaches to Predicting Conflicts with an Ethnic Component
Authors:   Kuban State University, Savva Elena V.
Published: February 2025

Conflicts with an ethnic component are objectively difficult to predict. The current state of their forecasting allows us only to state a general trend: increase, stability or decrease in tension in relations between representatives of various ethnic communities. At the same time, effective forecasts are possible only at the national level or at the territorial level of large regions. This level of forecasting leaves many potential conflicts at the subnational and local levels “in the shadows”. These conflicts have the opportunity to develop, unexpectedly reach the level of escalation and increase the territorial scale and the number of people involved in the conflict. The needs of practice dictate the need to move to forecasting for small territories and communities of people. The development and dissemination of methods for such forecasting is the main global trend in the field of forecasting conflicts with an ethnic component. At present, forecasting methods focus on the monitoring stage, that is, the collection and primary analysis of information. The actual forecast is carried out mainly by experts according to poorly standardized procedures. The creation of more rigorous methodologies for forecasting conflicts with an ethnic component remains an important research and applied task.

Authors: Kalinina Ekaterina A. , Purtova Victoria S.
Published: February 2025

In modern research, there is a tendency to in-depth analysis of the economic dimension of political choice, which has found expression in the study of prospective voting, focusing on the role of future expectations in the formation of electoral preferences. The article attempts to analyze the role of prospective voting as a factor of electoral mobility depending on the factors of socio-economic situation. The focus is on the subjects of the Ural Federal District. Special emphasis is made on the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra and the Kurgan Oblast. The choice of these regions is due to differences in their socio-economic situation. The authors state that in the Urals Federal District at the parliamentary elections the most significant factor for voters’ decision-making was the unemployment rate as opposed to monetary income. First of all, voters cast their votes for the Communist Party, and then for a Just Russia and the Liberal Democratic Party. In Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra, the unemployment factor contributed more to support for the LDPR, and in Kurgan Oblast – for the Communist Party.
