Published: December 2021

The detection of weeds at the stages of cultivation is very important for detecting and preventing plant diseases and eliminating significant crop losses, and traditional methods of performing this process require large costs and human resources, in addition to exposing workers to the risk of contamination with harmful chemicals. To solve the above tasks, also in order to save herbicides and pesticides, to obtain environmentally friendly products, a program for detecting agricultural pests using the classical K-Nearest Neighbors, Random Forest and Decision Tree algorithms, as well as YOLOv5 neural network, is proposed. After analyzing the geographical areas of the country, from the images of the collected weeds, a proprietary database with more than 1000 images for each class was formed. A brief review of the researchers' scientific papers describing the methods they developed for identifying, classifying and discriminating weeds based on machine learning algorithms, convolutional neural networks and deep learning algorithms is given. As a result of the research, a weed detection system based on the YOLOv5 architecture was developed and quality estimates of the above algorithms were obtained. According to the results of the assessment, the accuracy of weed detection by the K-Nearest Neighbors, Random Forest and Decision Tree classifiers was 83.3 %, 87.5 %, and 80 %. Due to the fact that the images of weeds of each species differ in resolution and level of illumination, the results of the neural network have corresponding indicators in the intervals of 0.82–0.92 for each class. Quantitative results obtained on real data demonstrate that the proposed approach can provide good results in classifying low-resolution images of weeds.

This paper reports the construction of a mathematical model for determining the electromagnetic momentum of a synchronous reluctance motor with non-partitioned permanent magnets. Underlying it is the calculation of the engine magnetic field using the finite-element method in the flat-parallel problem statement. The model has been implemented in the FEMM finite-element analysis environment. The model makes it possible to determine the engine's electromagnetic momentum for various rotor geometries. The problem of conditional optimization of the synchronous reluctance motor rotor was stated on the basis of the rotor geometric criteria. As an analysis problem, it is proposed to use a mathematical model of the engine's magnetic field. Constraints for geometric and strength indicators have been defined. The Nelder-Mead method was chosen as the optimization technique. The synthesis of geometrical parameters of the synchronous reluctance motor rotor with non-partitioned permanent magnets has been proposed on the basis of solving the problem of conditional optimization. The restrictions that are imposed on optimization parameters have been defined. Based on the study results, the dependence of limiting the angle of rotation of the magnet was established on the basis of strength calculations. According to the calculation results based on the proposed procedure, it is determined that the optimal distance from the interpole axis and the angle of rotation of magnets is at a limit established by the strength of the rotor structure.
Based on the calculations, the value of the objective function decreased by 24.4 % (from −847 Nm to −1054 Nm), which makes it possible to significantly increase the electromagnetic momentum only with the help of the optimal arrangement of magnets on the engine rotor.
The results of solving the problem of synthesizing the rotor parameters for a trolleybus traction motor helped determine the optimal geometrical parameters for arranging permanent magnets.
Using the asymptotic approximation of the Maxwell element model for the analysis of stress in a conveyor belt
Authors: Pihnastyi Oleh , Chernіavska Svіtlana
Published: December 2021

The features of the propagation of dynamic stresses in a conveyor belt, the material properties of which correspond to the Maxwell element model, are considered. Analytical expressions are presented for calculating the dynamic elastic modulus, the loss modulus, and the angle of mechanical loss depending on the frequency of longitudinal oscillations in the belt of an extended transport conveyor. To analyze the dynamic stress propagation process, dimensionless parameters are introduced that characterize the specific features of the viscoelastic process in a conveyor belt, the material properties of which correspond to the Maxwell element model. The transition to the dimensionless Maxwell element model is made and the analysis of the relationship between stress and deformation of a conveyor belt element for extremely large and small values of dimensionless parameters is made. The substantiation of the scope of the Maxwell element model is given. It is shown that at sufficiently high frequencies of longitudinal stress oscillations in a conveyor belt, at which the oscillation period is much less than the characteristic oscillation decay time, the relationship between stress and deformation of the conveyor belt element corresponds to Hooke's law. A qualitative analysis of the relaxation time was carried out for a conveyor belt material, the properties of which correspond to the Maxwell element model. The analysis of the propagation of dynamic stresses in the conveyor belt for the characteristic operating modes of the transport conveyor is carried out. The conveyor operating mode with a constant deformation rate of the belt element; the mode in which a constant load is suddenly applied to the belt element; the conveyor operating mode with an instantly applied load to the belt element were investigated. It was determined that in cases where the characteristic process time significantly exceeds the stress relaxation time in the conveyor belt or the longitudinal oscillation period is much less than the stress relaxation time in the conveyor belt, the Maxwell element model can be replaced with a sufficient degree of accuracy by the Hooke element model.

Authors: Trunov Alexandr , Byelozyorov Zhan
Published: December 2021

The sound series are considered as an addition to visual and thermal imaging information flows when using computerized monitoring systems (CS). A minimum complete structure of spaced microphones for collecting data on sound rows, which is suitable for calibrating, isolating and transmitting data on sound anomalies (SA), is proposed.  Duplication of the data transmission channel by wire and Wi-Fi module for recording and determining the type and coordinates of the SA is provided.
An experimental receiving module has been assembled, which includes microphones, amplifiers and signals matching boards for digital and analog forms, an ARDUINO UNO WIFI REV2 controller with an integrated Wi-Fi module. It is presented that its addition with a personal computer and a smartphone with the Android operating system forms a CS for remote wireless control of the course of the experimental analysis of sound series. It has been confirmed experimentally that its structure is minimally complete. An algorithm was developed and a software package was written in C/C++ languages. It is shown that the number of microphones is selected from the conditions of the problem from 1 to 5, but their number is limited to five digital inputs of the ARDUINO UNO WIFI REV2 board. A wave representation of the law of temporal changes in intensity and the integral norm of SA is applied. The possibilities of calibrating all data of sound series in analog and digital form are demonstrated. The article presents the suitability of testing the algorithms for determining the phases of echograms from time series data, containing SAs of different origins and recorded by three different microphones. The effect of connecting a Wi-Fi module on reducing the voltage drop by 0.5–1 V is shown. The necessity of an additional registration condition for all microphones is demonstrated. The software interfaces for the calibration of the receiving module and the operation of the mobile application have been developed.

Authors: Ivanova Valentyna , Ivanov Oleg , Ivanova Olena
Published: December 2021

The work deals with the problems of innovation transfer and intellectual property management at enterprises. An approach reasoning the choice of innovations and the type of their transfer at an enterprise has been developed, which increases the efficiency of innovation processes. For this purpose, the essence of the category “innovation transfer” regarding the micro-level was clarified and determined according to the sources of innovations. A set-theoretic model of innovation selection based on evaluating the essence of innovations, their generators (suppliers) and implementation conditions has been developed. For such an assessment, a set of criteria has been proposed, a number of the most essential conditions for introducing innovations at an enterprise have been identified, and an optimization model for the efficiency of the innovation development process has been developed. They allow making an informed choice of innovations in accordance with the needs of the enterprise. Evaluation criteria for the innovative potential are proposed and their essence is determined. Testing of the evaluation confirmed the possibility of using the proposed criteria. A model of innovation transfer, which presents the main processes and participants in the transfer of external and internal innovations has been developed, which allows enterprises to ensure a high level of organization and implementation of the transfer. Given the direct relationship between the transfer of innovations and intellectual property, an approach to improving intellectual property management at the enterprise is proposed. A number of principles of intellectual property management have been determined. The stages of intellectual property management at the enterprise are proposed as a set of specific actions determining all processes directly or indirectly related to such management, as well as those responsible for these processes and resource provision.

Authors: Biliaiev Mykola , Kozachyna Vitalii , Biliaieva Viktoriia , Rusakova Tetiana , Berlov Oleksandr , Mala Yuliia
Published: December 2021

Highways are an intensive source of environmental pollution. Atmospheric air is exposed to the fastest anthropogenic influence. Therefore, a particularly important task is to minimize the level of air pollution near the highway. An effective method for solving this problem is the use of protective barriers of various shapes installed near highways. At the stage of designing these protective structures, an important task arises to assess their effectiveness.
Estimation of the effectiveness of protective barriers by the method of the physical experiment takes considerable time to set up and conduct an experiment, as well as analyze the results of physical modeling. This method is not always convenient during design work. An alternative method is the method of mathematical modeling. For the designer, it is very important to have mathematical models that make it possible to quickly obtain a predictive result and take into consideration a set of important factors on which the effectiveness of the protective barrier depends.
A method has been devised that makes it possible to assess the effectiveness of using protective barriers to reduce the level of air pollution near the highway. It was found that an increase in barrier height by 80 % leads to a 22 % decrease in the concentration of impurities behind the barrier. It was established that applying a barrier with a height of 1.5 m leads to a 26 % decrease in the concentration of impurities in buildings adjacent to the highway. A method has been devised to assess the effectiveness of using absorbent "TX Active" surfaces on the protective barrier located near the highway. This study's result revealed that the application of a barrier with one "TX Active" surface leads to a decrease in the concentration of NO behind the barrier by an average of 43 %. When using a barrier with two "TX Active" surfaces, a decrease in the NO concentration behind the barrier is 85 % on average

Published: December 2021

"Non-antiepileptic" drugs have a strong potential as adjuvants in multidrug-resistant epilepsy treatment. In previous study the influence of low doses of digoxin, which do not affect the myocardium, on the anticonvulsant potential of classical commonly used anti-epileptic drugs under conditions of seizures, induced by pentylenetetrazole and maximal electroshock, has been investigated.

The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of digoxin at a sub-cardiotonic dose on the anticonvulsant potential of carbamazepine and lamotrigine in experimental seizures with different neurochemical mechanisms.

Material and methods: A total of 192 random-bred male albino mice weighting 22–25 g were used. Carbamazepine and lamotrigine were administered intragastrically in conditionally effective (ED50) and sub-effective (½ ED50) doses: carbamazepine at doses of 100 and 50 mg/kg; lamotrigine at doses of 25 and 12.5 mg/kg. Digoxin was administered subcutaneously at a sub-cardiotonic dose of 0.8 mg/kg as an adjuvant to carbamazepine and lamotrigine in ½ ED50. Picrotoxin (2.5 mg/kg subcutaneously); thiosemicarbazide (25 mg/kg intraperitoneally); strychnine (1.2 mg/kg subcutaneously); camphor (1000 mg/kg intraperitoneally) were used as convulsant agents.

Results: It was found that digoxin not only has its own permanent anticonvulsant effect on different models of paroxysms with different neurochemical mechanisms of development, but also significantly enhances the anticonvulsant potential of carbamazepine (to a lesser extent – lamotrigine) regardless of the pathogenesis of experimental paroxysms.

Conclusion: Based on the results, it can be concluded that digoxin has a high potential as an adjuvant medicine in complex epilepsy treatment because it enhances the efficiency of low-dose traditional anticonvulsants carbamazepine and lamotrigine

Published: December 2021

The use of plant raw materials is one of the areas of modern pharmaceutical science in the production of herbal drugs. The genus Epilobium counts more than 200 species, many species of which are used in traditional medicine. Among the Epilobium species, Epilobium angustifolium is one of the well-known medicinal plants which have been used worldwide in habitual medicine. There is insufficient information in the literature on the biologically active substances of Epilobium angustifolium L. The presence of three major polyphenol groups: phenolic acids, flavonoids, and ellagitannins were identified in E. angustifolium extracts. Traditionally, the infusion of leaves of this plant could be useful for headaches, cold and gastrointestinal disorder. The Epilobium angustifolium L. as an insufficiently studied plant is a promising object of study, including amino acids composition. To assess the relationship between the production of primary metabolites and their possible therapeutic properties, we analyzed the amino acid profile of the plant Epilobium angustifolium used in traditional medicine. The study of compounds generated by plants as a result of defense mechanisms permits an understanding of the molecular mechanism involved in their medicinal properties.

The aim. Thus, the aim of the study was to conduct an HPLC analysis of the amino acids of E. angustifolium to establish the prospects for the use of the raw materials in medical and pharmaceutical practice. The results of the current study will be used in further breeding programs aimed to obtain an industrial form of E. angustifolium suitable for pharmaceutical and food applications.

Materials and methods. The determination of amino acids composition of Epilobium angustifolium was conducted using Agilent 1200 (Agilent Technologies, USA).

Results. The HPLC method identified sixteen free amino acids and seventeen bound amino acids in the Epilobium angustifolium herb. The studies have shown that Epilobium angustifolium L. herb is mainly composed of free amino acids such as L-phenylalanine (1.65 µg/mg), L-glutamic acid (1.51 µg/mg), L-arginine (1.24 µg/mg), L-alanine (0.98 µg/mg) and L-aspartic acid (0.57 µg/mg), which were presents in the greatest amount. The dominant bound amino acids in the studied raw material were L-glutamic acid, L-aspartic acid, L-leucine, and L-alanine, the content of which was 32.37 µg/mg, 10.59 µg/mg, 8.70 µg/mg, and 6.22 µg/mg respectively.

Conclusions. Using the HPLC method determined the amino acids in the herb of Epilobium angustifolium L. The concentrations of L-aspartic acid, L-glutamic acid, L-arginine, L-alanine and L-phenylalanine are predominate among free and bound amino acids in the Epilobium angustifolium L. herb. The result shows that Epilobium angustifolium L. is the source of amino acids, so the use of this plant raw material for new remedies is possible in the future

Public security in classical ancient greek political and legal thought (teachings of socrates, plato, aristotle)
Authors: Zahumenna Yuliia
Published: December 2021

The aim of the article is to carry out the theoretical and legal analysis of key features of general philosophical and special legal understanding and interpretation of human, social and state security problems in the history of political and legal scholars of ancient times, in particular on the basis of scientific research of ancient Greek authors, opinions of that period, against the background of widespread collective ideas about security as a state of social relations, the condition of human (social) life and/or a kind of social value, objects (spheres) of this security, as well as subjects and regulatory mechanisms to ensure the appropriate state of society and the state.
It is shown, that the ancient Greek political and legal thought demonstrates a wide panorama of original views on the formation, development, functioning and guarantee of public and personal, internal and external, military and international, political and economic security in the context of political and legal concepts that reflect complex dialectics. and the interaction of the individual, society, law and the state.
It has been found, that the ancient Greek political and legal thought raises questions about the essence of public security. The matter of public security is an essential function of the state, which is realized by it both in the external sphere (military and foreign political security) and within the country (internal or domestic political security). Developed at the theoretical and philosophical level, the idea of good governance (Democritus, Plato, Aristotle, Polybius) is the idea of guaranteeing its security: bad governance - the key to the decline and collapse of the state, the death of its citizens. The philosophical concepts of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle are the most fundamental for the further development of political and legal models of public security
Analysis of methodological approaches to the construction of dynamic systems of investment in information development
Authors: Chapran Serhii
Published: December 2021

The object of research is theoretical and methodological approaches to mathematical modelling of dynamic nonlinear systems to ensure dynamic management of the investment process of information development of enterprises. Methodological aspects of building dynamic investment systems, maximizing the effectiveness of system interaction in information development are considered. One of the most problematic places is the formulation of the optimal approach to the methods of system analysis of decision management.

The paper provides an opportunity to solve a wide range of problems, related to the flexible management of investment projects in the implementation of information technology. The study used the economic component of the formation of information resources, which contains an integral investment component of the information system. This is due to the fact that the proposed discreteness of this approach in the complex dynamics of the value of the information system contains partial estimates. Therefore, there should be a scheme of constant review of its value, which contains a dynamic component of the investment value of the information system with properties.

The axiomatic approach was used in one of the most common approaches in the formal study of systems. The peculiarity is that the model is based on certain basic assumptions that do not require theoretical justification – on axioms. The study identified the main characteristics of the dynamic investment component of the system.

Investments will have the properties of assessing information flows as part of information development. In particular, the research used approaches to modelling many solutions of the investment resources management process. The stages of modelling the process of dynamics and state of the system, implementation of the information support system are determined. This provides an opportunity to identify and assess the stages of investment, analysis of key risks and existing opportunities, defining strategies and methods of response, system typing. As well as the development and implementation of action plans to minimize the variability of investment areas and information structure.

Authors: Dung Lai Thi Kim , Tuan Le Nghiem Anh , Du Bui Duy
Published: December 2021

Natural rubber latex (NRL) with “low protein content” is regarded as less allergenic latex for medical gloves, medical products, condoms, etc. Therefore, this study was conducted to strengthen the fundamental approach of making “low protein NRL” via oligosaccharide hydroxyl ethyl cellulose (oligoHEC) treatment. OligoHEC (Mw ~10,000 g/mol) is degradation product of HEC (Mw ~90,000 g/mol) by 1.5% H2O2 treatment combined with hydrothermal at temperature for 30 minutes at 121°C, pressurized rate of 0.38 mPa by autoclave equipment. OligoHECs were employed to form electrical bonds with the proteins. The target of this study is protein content of NRL ≤ 50 µg/g of rubber, we surveyed the effect of oligoHEC treatment towards the solution proteins content of NRL. Results show that oligoHEC at low concentration (0.25%) effectively extracted the proteins molecules. Interestingly, allergenic proteins content of NRL serum was decreased proportionally (< 50 µg/g of rubber) with the upsurge of oligoHEC concentration, suggesting deactivation of allergenic. These preliminary results indicate a potential approach to produce low allergenic risk NRL products with adding of oligoHEC

Neste artigo, apresentamos a Justiça Restaurativa a partir de reflexões feitas no curso do projeto de extensão “Centro de Mediações e Práticas Restaurativas” (CMPR) da UFERSA. O objetivo é apontar como o modelo restaurativo de justiça reúne condições para oferecer um paradigma não restrito à administração de conflitos de escala individual e local, mas tem a potencialidade de construir uma sociabilidade e um ethos de convivência fundadora e também fomentadora de transformações culturais. Para tanto, recorre-se à revisão de literatura de autores que tratam da Justiça Restaurativa no contexto contemporâneo. Por fim, concluímos pela aptidão da Justiça Restaurativa proporcionar práticas que fortalecem e implementam uma cultura de paz, de diálogo e da não-violência, embora haja constante risco de sua cooptação e burocratização pelo Estado, minando seu poder emancipatório, que investe na autonomia dos sujeitos e comunidades.
Challenging Hegemonic Masculinity, Pursuing Gender Equity: Case Study of Male Muslim Leaders of Islamic Boarding Schools
Authors: Hayat Edi
Published: December 2021

This article is about men’s role in promoting gender equity with case study of male Muslim leaders of Islamic boarding schools who involved in the mainstreaming of gender equity. Few of them, who have engaged in, have been playing an effective role in gender mainstreaming. They can challenge the root causes of gender inequity without being seen to disrupt the socio-cultural and religious setup. They understand the gender-biased cultural practices necessitate to be changed and have the capacity to intervene in those aspects of social construction considered inimical to gender equity. Besides, they have empowered personally because they have made gender equity as their strategic choice to be pursued. Although they have previously denied choosing the issue, they have gradually received it fully in their preoccupation. Their empowerment has consisted of three dimensions, tangible and intangible resources, agencies, and the power of achievement. Their effectiveness has additionally depended on their vantage point as leaders, to tackle the root causes rather than the symptoms of gender inequity. In this paper, I look in detail at their work and explore the lessons that can be taken and replicated elsewhere in the Islamic world for greater gender equity.
Elected Without Buying Vote: Woman Candidate, Canvassing, and Programmatic Campaign in the 2019 Local Legislative Election
Authors: Rohman Noor , Holilah Holilah
Published: December 2021

Although extensive studies have been carried out on women candidates in the Indonesia election, no specific attention discusses elected women candidates without relying on vote-buying. This paper seeks to explain how and to what extend the winning strategy of a woman candidate elected with limited financial resources. We argue that door to door canvassing and programmatic campaign through social media are a crucial alternative strategy for a woman candidate to mobilize voters. The argument builds based on the case study of an elected woman candidate from the Indonesian Solidarity Party at district 10 of the Jakarta provincial parliament. This article shows that a woman candidate prioritized personal communication with voters directly and policy program campaign as a central winning strategy. There is a more optimistic story about an elected woman candidate in the local legislative election when compared to previous studies. Our findings confirm that a woman candidate could secure the parliament seat without relying on vote-buying, political dynasty, and male power.
Selfhood and Subjectivity in Sufi Thought: Image of a Mole on Emperor Akbar’s Nose
Authors: Donde Dipanwita
Published: December 2021

This paper addresses the making of portrait-images of Mughal emperors, in which distinctness and particularity in individual features distinguished portraits of emperor Akbar from his ancestors and successors. Scholars have argued that the technique of ‘accurate’ portraits or mimesis was introduced to Mughal artists with the arrival of renaissance paintings and prints from Europe, brought by Jesuit priests to the Mughal court. However, the question of why Mughal emperors saw a need to arrive at portraiture in the likeness of individuals remains to be addressed. This paper argues that the desire to portray a ruler, in all his individual particularity, can arise only within a literary and intellectual matrix in which the individual is valued and where ideas about selfhood and subjectivity have already permeated the philosophical, political, and literary thought. Tracing the transhistorical and transcultural migration of ideas and motifs from Timurid Central Asia to Mughal India, this paper examines the transference of Sufi thought on image-making practices, particularly portraiture, in the imperial court of the Mughals in early seventeenth century.

Keywords: Portrait-images of Akbar, subjectivity, Sufi thought, poetics between text and image.
Towards a Psycho-Sociological Understanding of Allah
Authors: Jhunjhunwala Bharat
Published: December 2021

It is not possible to determine whether Allah is inside the universe or outside it. While the traditional understanding is that Allah is “outside” the universe; the “inside” understanding is consistent with the Qur’ān as well as the writings of Carl G. Jung, Emile Durkheim, Abraham Maslow, and Philip Goff and can explain the concept and the writ of Allah to the modern mind. We hypothesize that Allah is the name given to the consciousness of every particle in the universe fused into One and called Universal Consciousness. The consciousness is not prior- or after matter but exists in parallel. There is a 2-way give-and-take between Allah and the Universe. The believers have a more direct communication with Allah. Allah rules upon the universe and, at the same time, Allah is constituted of the Collective Consciousness of the same universe. We show this hypothesis is consistent with al-Nūr 24:35 and Sūra al-Ikhlāṣ. This approach can be the foundation on which we can build a concordance between the understandings of Qur’ānic Allah and modern science, thus explain the majesty of Allah to the science-oriented modern mind including the atheists without diluting the spiritual content of the Holy Qur’ān.

Published: December 2021

The human ear has unique and attractive details; therefore, human ear recognition is one of the most important fields in the biometric domains. In this work, we proposed an efficient and intelligent ear recognition technique based on particle swarm optimization, discrete wavelet transform, and fuzzy neural network. Discrete wavelet transform is used to provide comprise and effective features about the ear image, while the particle swarm optimization utilized to select more effective and attractive features. Furthermore, using particle swarm optimization leads to reduce the complexity of the classification stage since it reduces the number of the features. Fuzzy neural network used in the classification stage in order to provide strong distinguishing between the testing and training ear images. many experiments performed using two ear databases to examine the accuracy of the proposed technique. The analysis of the results refers that the presented technique gained high recognition accuracy using various data sets with less complexity. Keywords: Ear recognition; bio-metric; discrete wavelet transform, particle swarm optimization, fuzzy neural network.

Published: December 2021

Recently, the volume of the Arabic texts and documents on the internet had increased rabidly and generated a rich and valuable content on the www. Several parties had contributed to this content, this includes researchers, companies, governmental agencies, educational institutions, etc. With this big content it became difficult to search and extract useful information using only mankind skills and search engines. This motivated researchers to propose automated methodologies to extract summaries or useful information from those documents. A lot of research has been proposed for the automatic extraction of summaries for the English language and other languages. Unfortunately, the research for the Arabic automatic text summarization is still humble and needs more attention. This study presents a critical review and analysis of recent studies in Arabic automatic text summarization. The review includes all recent studies used the different text summarization approaches which include statistical-based, graph-based, evolutionary-based, and machine learning-based approaches. The selection criteria of the literature are based on the venue of publication and year of publication; back to five years. All review papers in Arabic ATS are excluded from the review since the study considers the recent methodologies in Arabic ATS. As a conclusion of this research, we recommend researchers in Arabic text summarization to investigate the use of machine learning on abstractive approach for text summarization due to the lack of research in this area.

Bu araştırmanın amacı, bağlanma ve duyarlılık davranışlarının nesiller arası aktarımla

3-5 yaş çocukları üzerinden yansımasını incelemektir. Araştırma karma desenlidir.

Araştırmaya 2 anneanne ve bunların 3-5 yaş aralığında çocuğu olan birisi ikincil bağlanmaya

sahip ikişer kızları dahil edilmiştir. Böylece 3 nesilden toplam 10 kişi araştırmaya

katılmıştır. Bağlanma durumları Yakın İlişkilerde Yaşantılar Envanteri-II ölçeğiyle belirlenmiştir.

Annelerin duyarlılık davranışları yarı yapılandırılmış bir ortamda oyun hamurları

yardımıyla 3-5 yaş çocuklarla annelerinin etkileşimleri dahilinde incelenmiştir. Sonuç

olarak anneannelerin büyük çocuklarıyla bağlanma ilişkisinden dolayı nesillerarası

bir aktarımın olduğu ancak bunun anneannelerin ikincil bağlanmaya sahip küçük kızlarını

kapsamadıkları görülmüştür. Annelerin duyarlılık davranışlarında ikincil bağlanmaya sahip olanlarının daha olumlu oldukları görülmektedir. Araştırma sonuçları nesiller arası

aktarım ve hiyerarşik bağlanma biçimi teorilerini desteklemektedir.
Kur’an’da Hz. Dâvûd ve Hz. Süleyman’a Atfedilen Olayların Mucizeliği Problemi
Authors: BAKKAL Ali

Kur’an’da, dağların ve kuşların Hz. Dâvûd’la birlikte Allah’ı tesbih ettikleri ve kendisine

zırh yapma sanatının öğretildiği belirtilmiş; Süleyman peygamberle ilgili olarak da

rüzgârın emrine verildiği, kendisi için bakırın su gibi akıtıldığı, cinlerin emrinde çalıştığı

ve kendisine kuş dilinin öğretildiği ifade edilmiştir. Geçmiş müfessirlerin kahir ekseriyeti

tarafından bu olaylar mucize olarak kabul edilmiştir. Son zamanlarda yaşayan bazı araştırmacı

ve akademisyenler ise bunların mucize olmadıklarını ileri sürmüşlerdir. Bu makalede

Kur’an’ın anlatım tarzı ve üslup özelliklerinin yanı sıra tarihi bilgiler ve belgeler

de dikkate alınarak bu olayların birer mucize mi yoksa birer lütuf ve nimet mi oldukları

ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır.
Ehl-i Sünnet Kelâmcılarına Göre Terâdüf
Authors: ÖZTÜRK Şaban
Published: December 2021

Bu çalışmada terâdüf (eşanlamlılık) konusu, kelâm ilmi –özellikle Ehl-i Sünnet

kelâmcıları– açısından ele alınmıştır. Konu, esasen bir dil problemi olması nedeniyle

Arap dilcilerinin görüşleri öncelikle ortaya konulmuştur. Bu bağlamda terâdüfün sözlük

ve terim anlamı, dilcilerden terâdüf taraftarları ve karşıtlarının görüşleri ve delilleri, terâdüfün

ortaya çıkışı, terâdüfü doğuran sebepler, terâdüfün çeşitleri gibi konulara değinilmiştir.

Terâdüf konusu, Ehl-i Sünnet kelâm âlimlerinin görüşleri çerçevesinde ve onların

temel kelâm kaynaklarına müracaat edilerek değerlendirilmiştir. Söz konusu kelâmcıların

terâdüfe yaklaşımları iki açıdan ortaya konulmuştur. Birincisi, bazı Ehl-i Sünnet kelâm

âlimleri kronolojik sırayla ele alınarak terâdüf konusundaki görüşleri, müterâdif kabul

ettikleri veya etmedikleri kelimeler tespit edilmeye çalışılmış ve bunlarla ilgili yaptıkları

açıklamalara yer verilmiştir. İkinci olarak, ulûhiyyet, nübüvvet, âhiret, esmâ ve ahkâm,

varlık ve bilgi gibi temel kelâm konularına ilişkin müterâdif oldukları iddia edilen bazı

kavramlar ele alınarak aralarındaki farklar ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır. Böylece iki

ayrı kavramı bir anlamda kabul etmenin anlam kaybına yol açıp açmadığı gösterilmeye

çalışılmıştır.

Sosyal Hizmet Uygulamalarında Sosyal Rol Valörizasyon Kuramı: Osmanlıda İşitme ve Görme Engelliler Örneği
Authors: AYDIN Selahattin , YILDIZ Recep
Published: December 2021

Sosyal Rol Valörizasyon (SRV) Kuramı çeşitli sosyal kategorilere yerleştirilen bireylerin

farklılıkları sebebiyle sosyal değersizleştirilme ve değersiz rollerle ilişkilendirilme

süreçlerini açıklamaya yönelen bir yaklaşımdır. SRV Kuramı değersizleştirilmiş bir kategori

olarak engellilerin, içinde yaşadıkları toplumca muteber sayılan sosyal roller ifa

edebilme kapasitelerinin geliştirilmesi yoluyla toplumsal konumlanışlarının olumlu yönde

değişeceğini önermektedir. Çalışmada SRV yaklaşımının önermeleri ile engellilik olgusunun

Türk toplumundaki anlamlandırılma formları arasında ilişki bulunduğunu; SRV

kuramının bir sosyal hizmet uygulama yaklaşımı olarak kullanılmasının ihtiyaç duyduğu

sosyokültürel zeminin Türk toplumunda mevcut bulunduğunu ve özellikle Osmanlı döneminde

işitme engellilerin devlet kurumlarında istihdamları, görme engellilerin din hizmetleri

ve hafızlık müessesesinde istihdamları gibi örneklerle ortaya koyma amacındadır.
TOPLUMSAL CİNSİYET EŞİTSİZLİĞİ BAĞLAMINDA KADIN YOKSULLUĞU VE SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİR KALKINMA: TÜRKİYE ÖLÇEĞİNDE BİR İNCELEME

Dünya ekonomilerinde yükselen eşitsizliklerin ve krizlerin temelinde sürdürülebilir olmayan üretim ve tüketim modelinin yer aldığı artık kabul edilen bir gerçekliktir. Bu noktada sürdürülebilir kalkınma; bugünün ihtiyaçlarını karşılarken gelecek nesillerin ihtiyaçlarını karşılayabilme yeteneğini tehlikeye atmayan, sadece nicel bir büyümeyi değil çevre ve sosyal sürdürülebilirliği gözeten bir model olarak ülkelerce benimsenmeye başlanmıştır. Hiç kimseyi geride bırakmamak sloganıyla Birleşmiş Milletlerce deklare edilen 2030 yılı sürdürülebilir kalkınma amaçlarından ikisi; yetersiz beslenmeden sosyal dışlanma ve kararlara katılamamaya değin çeşitli şekillerde tezahür eden yoksulluğun sona erdirilmesi ve toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliğinin sağlanmasıdır. Yoksulluğu deneyimleyen spesifik gruplardan birisi ise, toplumda bulunduğu dezavantajlı pozisyonuyla kadınlardır. Sürdürülebilir gelişmenin sağlanmasında, toplumun yarısını oluşturan kadın nüfusunun sahip olduğu bilgisini, emeğini, duyarlılığını ve yaratıcı gücünü yaşama aktarabilmesi için toplumsal cinsiyet eşitsizliğinin ve kadın yoksulluğunun giderilmesi kritik önemdedir. Türkiye özelinde toplumsal cinsiyet eşitsizliğinin yarattığı kadın yoksulluğunun sürdürülebilir kalkınma ekseninde incelendiği bu çalışmada; eğitime erişim, işgücüne katılım ve parlamentoda temsil oranları açısından değerlendirildiğinde kadınların yeterli düzeye ulaşamadığı sonucu elde edilmiştir. Bu kapsamda, sürdürülebilir kalkınma politikalarının daha yoğun bir şekilde uygulanmaya başladığı 1999 yılından günümüze toplumsal cinsiyet eşitsizliği ve dolayısıyla kadın yoksulluğunun giderilmesi amacıyla atılacak adımların ekonomi ve kamu politikalarındaki düzenlemelerle daha üst bir boyuta taşınması gerektiği söylenebilir.
SİYASETTE ALAN İÇİ EĞİTİM EKSİKLİĞİ İLE İLİŞKİLİ FIRSAT EŞİTSİZLİĞİ

Türkiye’de siyasette aday olamayacaklar için kıstaslardan biri ilkokul mezunu olmayanlar olarak görülmüştür. Ancak uygulamada daha üst düzeyde bir eğitim kıstasının yerleştiği söylenebilir. Bu durumun, “siyasette eğitim düzeyinden kaynaklı bir fırsat eşitsizliği yarattığı” düşüncesi çalışmanın ana problemini oluşturmaktadır. Siyasette alan içi eğitimin gerekli olduğu, yerel yönetimlerde alan içi eğitim eksikliğinden kaynaklı hizmet aksamalarının yaşandığı, siyasette eğitim düzeyinin etkili olduğu ve olası bir eğitim/sertifika programının fırsat eşitsizliğini ortadan kaldıracağı alt hipotezleri test edilmiştir.

Yönetim kavramı incelendiğinde işbölümü ve uzmanlık ilkeleri çalışma adına önem arz etmektedir. Siyasetçilerin bizzat yönetici olabilmeleri ve/veya yöneticileri atayabilmeleri nedeniyle yönetim alanıyla birebir ilişki içinde oldukları söylenebilir. Çalışmada ilk olarak siyasetçilerin eğitim durumları hakkında bilgiler verilmiştir. Eğitim durumunun seçilme ile ilişkisi olup olmadığı tartışılmıştır. Ancak siyasetçilerin alana ilişkin eğitim alıp almadıkları konusu veri yetersizliği sebebi ile literatürden incelenememiştir. Bu sorunun çözümü için, tez çalışması sürecinde yapılan saha araştırmasının verileri kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca eğitim durumu ile alan içi eğitimin aynı anlamda olmadığı belirtilebilir. Çalışmada eğitim durumunun siyasette önemli olup olmadığı tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Siyasette eğitim düzeyine önem veriliyor olmasının, siyasetçiler için alan içi eğitim ihtiyacının önemine vurgu yapacağı düşünülmüştür.

Çalışmanın ilk bölümünde milletvekilliği adayları ve kazanan adaylar ile yerel yönetimlerde aday olanlar ve kazanan adayların eğitim düzeyleri incelenmiştir. İkinci bölümde, Aydın İli’nde yapılan araştırma verilerine göre hipotezler tartışılmış ve değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Sonuç bölümünde ise siyasette alan içi eğitimin gerekliliği üzerinde durularak önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
