The paradigm of gender inclusion in the right to education: domestic and international experience
Authors: Prodan V.
Published: October 2023

The issue of gender inclusion in the right to education is extremely relevant and characterized by scientific novelty. Given the active European integration movements of Ukraine, the stable position on the international arena and the adoption of relevant legislation, gender inclusion is gaining its popularity and the need for research.

Within the framework of this scientific article, we conducted a conceptual and categorical analysis of the terms that form the basis of the work. It was concluded that the concept of “gender” can be represented as a designation of social, cultural, psychological and behavioral characteristics that society attributes to the female and male sexes based on social ideas, expectations and roles. Outlined the understanding of “gender inclusion” as an active practice and policy aimed at ensuring equal opportunities, rights and participation for women, men and persons with other gender identities in all spheres of society. The main goal of gender inclusion in the right to education was presented as a process of creating an inclusive, fair and equal educational system in which all participants can reveal their potential and develop their abilities without external marginalization pressure. Key aspects of the paradigm of gender inclusion in the right to education were presented, namely: provision of equal opportunities for learning and development regardless of gender and gender identity; elimination of gender stereotypes and practices of discrimination in educational institutions and pedagogical processes; implementation of gender analysis in the planning and development of educational programs, the content of educational materials and teaching methods; implementation of policies, legislation and programs aimed at protecting the rights of individuals in the field of education against any form of gender discrimination.
The Empirical Nature of Norms for Decision in The Works of Eugene Ehrlich and Robert Alexi
Authors: Blihar V.
Published: October 2023

The article under studies deals with significance of empirical arguments in juridical methodology. It relies on the fact that empirical dimension of law is an interesting and complicated issue, and E. Ehrlich’s concept of norms is one of the best solutions to it. This solution contains quite a few open questions, and the modern juridical methodology seeks answers to them both with the help of tools known a hundred or more years ago and in the ways developed in the last fifty years within the framework of the theory of juridical argumentation.

The purpose of the article is to reveal the empirical nature of norms for decision. In order to achieve the goal, it is essential to answer the questions about the concept of the empirical dimension of law, the relationship between reality and necessity, etc., as well as the question about the empirical nature of norms for decision. All in all, the article analyzes the concept of the empirical effect of law, and specifically, how norms for decision make it possible to take into account the empirical aspects of the implementation of law. It has been ascertained that the empirical dimension of law is an approach to law based on the issue of the relationship between reality and necessity. In other words, it is the question of how one can move from reality to necessity, which is impossible within the so-called alethic system of Theophrastus and the corresponding deontic interpretation, the former allowing only the transition from necessity to reality, but not vice versa. Norms for decision are one of the tools for solving an empirical problem, which means that empirical arguments are applied within the framework of the so-called general practical arguments (for example, the results of demographic or other sociological studies, forecasting future outcomes of court proceedings based on statistical data on previous proceedings in similar cases, etc).

Authors:   Independent researcher, Yadrennikova Svetlana V.
Published: October 2023

The aim of this article is to describe the results of a study devoted to terminological problems in the theory of teaching the Russian language. The presented work is based on an approach that combines scientific practices of history, pedagogy and linguistics, based on the use of an information model and promoting a comprehen-sive study of didactic terminology. The considered period of the 20–30s of the XX century in the USSR is char-acterized by intensive enrichment of pedagogical vocabulary: rethinking of the content of pre-revolutionary concepts and terms, mass appearance of terminological units, search for new definitions for didactic catego-ries. The key conclusions of the work are a description of the trends in the formation of the terminology of Sovi-et didactics of the 20–30s of the XX century, with a detailed presentation of the evidence base and argumenta-tion in the form of a comparison of statistical indicators of the chronological periods 1917–1928s and 1929–1937s. The trends discussed in the article determined the features of the structure and content of the terminol-ogy of Soviet didactics at the stage of formation of the public education system in the USSR.

Arquitectura, teatro y ciudad: ¡A escena…!
Authors: Acosta Silvia
Published: October 2023

Es la arquitectura figura y molde de nuestra vida. Una disciplina que la academia ha sistematizado para entrenar, en pocos meses, a algunos que serán especialistas. Sin embargo, desde que somos en este mundo, hacemos arquitectura con nuestros cuerpos. Hacemos la arquitectura más primitiva, la más sabia; la que resguarda y propicia la posibilidad de vivir.
En el marco de la propuesta de seguir buscando otras miradas hacia la disciplina, es que surge este ensayo. Una mirada que plantea a la arquitectura como la escenografía de la vida; como espacio teatral que propone elementos para la acción y ofrece argumentos para que la comedia pueda desarrollarse.
La intimidad de las casas; la publicidad del teatro; el conjunto – amalgama y contraste- de la ciudad.

Authors: Adrefiza Adrefiza
Published: October 2023

Studies on Student Online Learning Readiness (SOLR) have been proliferating since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic world-widely. The results seem to vary accordingly in terms of students’ levels, complexity, and contexts of its implementation across regions and countries. Through an internet survey questionnaire, involving 139 EESP students at the faculty of education, at Jambi University, this study investigates the levels of SOLR and how they contribute to the improvement of the students’ soft skills. Adapting Yu and Richardson’s (2015) model, the results show a relatively high SOLR level with an average score of (3.64) (out of the maximum 5.0) in three aspects (technical, social, and communication). Technical competencies were the highest level with an average score of (3.70) and Communication appear to be the lowest (3.59) in the evaluation. The study also proves that all aspects of SOLR contributed significantly to the improvement of the students’ soft skills (self-regulated, critical thinking, problem-solving, and time management) with an average score of (2.8) (out of 4.0). Despite the pessimistic claims in its implementation, the findings have displayed a reverse phenomenon, proving the fact that the student’s readiness at EESP along with its contribution to students’ soft skills far outweighs the expectation. Online learning, although, with several limitations, should be implemented wisely and thoroughly to obtain maximum results.

Authors: Butt Umber Irshad , Zameer Gulfishan , Rana Aatiqa , Anjum Sameer
Published: October 2023

Cystadenoma is a benign salivary gland tumor that develops very infrequently. The commonest site for their occurrence is minor salivary glands, where these present as cystic growths with papillary projections. Cystadenomas are often interpreted as mucous retention cysts. Therefore, histopathological confirmation is essential for further treatment and follow-up of the patients, even after the surgery, to keep a check on the recurrence and, in the long run, the exclusion of the possibility of malignant transformation. We report a case of mucinous cystadenoma of the salivary gland occurring in a 44-year-old male who presented with a painless mass, gradually increasing in size over the period of 3 years. The radiological evaluation reported it as a retention cyst. Fine needle aspiration cytology was performed, followed by complete surgical excision of the lesion. Diagnosis of mucinous cystadenoma in the parotid gland was made. There are only a few cases of mucinous cystadenoma of the parotid gland reported so far from the world, and to the best of author’s knowledge, it is the first case of its kind reported from Pakistan.

Therefore, this study is planned to compare the effects of canagliflozin and metformin alone and in combination on ovarian histology of rat models with letrozole-induced PCOS.

Methods: It was a randomized experimental study on Sprague Dawley rats. A total of N = 40 female rats were divided randomly into six groups (A-F). With the exception of normal control group A, rats were given letrozole 1 mg/kg daily for 21 days till PCOS was induced. Group B was disease control, while rats in groups C-F were administered canagliflozin (10 mg/kg), metformin (100 mg/kg), a combination of canagliflozin (10 mg/kg) with metformin (100 mg/kg), and combination of canagliflozin (5 mg/kg) with metformin (50 mg/kg), respectively. Animals were sacrificed on the 48th day. Ovaries and uterus were removed, weighed, and processed for further histopathological analysis.

Results: All treatment groups showed significant improvement in ovarian histology. The number of primary and secondary follicles and cystic follicles was significantly lower (p < 0.001) in all treatment groups as compared to the disease control group.

Conclusion: Canagliflozin is effective for the treatment of PCOS and augments the effect of metformin in a rat model.

Authors: Oliveira Tassiana Moura de
Published: October 2023

How do state courts in Brazil participate in the debate about Covid-19 policies? I argue that state courts had a role in making decisions on key policies when political actors couldn’t agree on how to handle the crisis. This paper compares its findings to what previous research has found on the role of the STF at the federal level. The results show that subnational institutions tried to use state courts to halt such policies in a similar way to what happened in the STF.

Evaluation of successive Iraqi governments after 2003
Authors: Kamal Hussien Adham
Published: October 2023

Initiating the evaluation of the performance and achievements of any government in a country facing numerous internal crises, inconsistencies in its foreign policies, and a complex political system, such as post-2003 Iraq, presents a challenging task. The Iraqi political system that emerged after 2003 saw significant developments, defining its institutions within a specific framework blending parliamentary, federal, and decentralized elements since 2005. However, it witnessed a trajectory of disappointments for the Iraqi people due to the adoption of patronage and deals in managing the political process, illustrating the weakness in the performance of specific governments, notably those under the State of Law Coalition formed by the Islamic Dawa Party and other coexisting political forces. Successive governments, led by former Prime Ministers Ibrahim al-Jaafari (2005-2006), Nouri al-Maliki (2006-2010), Haider al-Abadi, Adil Abdul-Mahdi, and Mustafa al-Kadhimi, grappled with an inability to fulfill their promised agendas, culminating in crises as each administration concluded, compounding the existing challenges. This reality contradicts the true objectives of the political process in Iraq, aiming to achieve genuine representation of the Iraqi people and form governments that genuinely reflect and serve them.
The impact of digitalization on the sustainability of social orders
Authors: Ravochkin Nikita Nikolaevich
Published: October 2023

The study presents the critical revision of the usual conceptual foundations of complex systems, since the impact of many factors of digitalization directly determines today the viability of societies. The article analyzes the impact of digitalization on the stability of social orders. The purpose of this study is to clarify the possibilities of the impact of digitalization on the stability of social systems. The subject of the article is the social order of modern society in the context of digitalization processes. In modern realities, formed by the total penetration of information and communication technologies into all spheres of human activity, the level of unpredictability and riskiness is clearly increasing, which primarily causes changes in the ontological foundations of social systems. Unprecedented transformations, which have become permanent, have a complex impact on the order that has developed in societies. The author of the article examines in detail the complex impact of digitalization on the stability of social orders. The nature of digitalization processes is presented. Using practical examples, some directions of the influence of advanced technologies on the social fabric are identified. The positive and negative consequences of the manifestation of digitalization processes are highlighted. Vectors of transformation of social institutions are revealed. It is revealed that despite the prevalence of technical and technological elements in public life and the decrease in the humanitarian component and a number of qualities of the human capital of society, which are at a high level of digital development, increase their own stability and functionality. In conclusion, generalizations are presented that constitute a theoretical and methodological basis for subsequent studies of the impact of digitalization on the stability of social orders.
Identification of Uncertain Parameter in Flight Vehicle Using Physics-Informed Deep Learning
Authors: Na Kyung-Mi , Lee Chang-Hun
Published: October 2023

This paper presents the estimation method for uncertain parameters in flight vehicles, especially missile systems, based on physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) augmented with a novel integration-based loss. The proposed method identifies four types of structured uncertainty: burnout time, rocket motor tilt angle, location of the center of pressure, and control fin bias, which significantly affect the missile performance. In the estimation framework, as neural networks (NNs) are updated, these uncertainties are also identified simultaneously because they are also included in the structure of NNs. After testing 100 simulation data, the average estimation errors are within 1% of the mean value for each type of uncertainty. The methodology is able to identify the parameters despite noise corruption in the time-series data. Compared with the conventional PINNs, adding the new loss based on the integration of differential equations yields a more reliable estimation performance for all types of uncertainty. This approach can be effective for complex systems and ill-posed inverse problems, which makes it applicable to other aerospace systems.
The Rise of Public Sector Employee Strikes in Africa: Should We Be worried?
Authors: Kambasu Obed
Published: October 2023

In this article, I explore the rising waves of workplace militancy in the public sector in sub-Saharan Africa. As a purely qualitative study, the research involved in-depth interviews with Ugandan teachers at public schools and lecturers at public universities who have been persistently involved in a series of strike activities. It also included a detailed documentary analysis and a review of related empirical literature. The findings indicated that strike activity is not only shifting from the private to the public sector, but also that the repertoire of strike tactics available to public employees has become so diverse that some actions might not be easily discernible as industrial action. These included actions similar to what has been described in German as “Innere Kündigung” (inner resignation) and “Dienst nach Vorschrift” (work to rule). Interestingly, the findings also suggested that public employee strikes have some positive value that could be harnessed for the greater good of public service delivery and that strict restrictions on public sector strikes could be counterproductive.

Znaczenie adwentu w liturgii Kościoła - analiza liturgiczno-duszpasterska
Authors: Warwarko Bartosz
Published: October 2023

Adwent jako jeden z okresów roku liturgicznego posiada ogromne znaczenie teologiczne. Świadczy o tym bogactwo tekstów liturgicznych, które zawarte są w Mszale Rzymskim, a także szereg propozycji pastoralnych zawartych w Dyrektorium o pobożności ludowej i liturgii. Autor artykułu analizuje powyższych treści, które są związane z teologią adwentu. Na podstawie tej analizy dokonuje krytycznego spojrzenia na praktykę duszpasterską, która często nie uwzględnia aktualnej myśli teologicznej i powiela zwyczaje, które są nie tylko obojętne wobec teologii, ale czasami sprzeczne z teologicznym rozumieniem czasu adwentu.
