The Value relevance of accounting performance measures for quoted family firms: A study in the light of the alignment and entrenchment hypotheses
Authors: Basly Sami , Saadi Tayeb
Published: December 2020

The present research examines the value relevance of accounting earnings data disclosed by a sample of French family and non-family firms. The major goal of this paper is to find if the value relevance of accounting earnings for investors depends on the nature of the firm. In addition, it intends to check if accounting earnings relevance varies in function of the concentration of ownership in the hands of families.

The research is based on a longitudinal data set (2009 – 2012) obtained from a sample of 349 firms quoted on the Paris stock market and composing the CAC-All tradable index. Relying on the association studies’ methodology, the main hypotheses are supported as the results show that family firms exhibit more value relevant earnings than non-family firms. This finding could be justified by an alignment effect that may be especially evidenced in the case of moderate family ownership. Conversely, less value relevant earnings are exhibited by highly controlled family firms thus showing evidence for a probable entrenchment by the owning-families.

Published: December 2020

Piroplasmosis is a tick-borne haemolytic disease caused by different species of the Babesia and Theileria genera. Data on the prevalence of bovine piroplasms and their genetic diversity are scanty in Nigeria. Hence, this study reported the detection of some piroplasms in the blood of cattle in Abeokuta, Nigeria by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Blood samples were collected from 252 cattle and subjected to DNA extraction followed by PCR amplification of the partial region of 18S rRNA of the haemoprotozoans. Selected positive amplicons were unidirectionally sequenced and compared to the reference sequences from the Genbank. A total of 220 (87.3 %) cattle were positive for Theileria velifera and/or Babesia bigemina. The T. velifera was detected only in 163 (64.7 %) cattle, while 7 (2.8 %) cattle had a single infection with B. bigemina. Fifty cattle (19.8 %) had mixed infections with both parasites. There were no significant differences in piroplasm infections between the ages of cattle for both parasites. There were no significant differences in infection rates between the sexes for T. velifera, while the males had a significantly higher (P < 0.05) rate of infection for B. bigemina than the female cattle. The molecular detection of Babesia and Theileria species of cattle are reported for the first time in cattle in Abeokuta, Nigeria. This study, which confirmed the endemic nature of the parasites in cattle in the study area, stresses their importance in livestock health and production in Nigeria.
The First Record of Facultative Parasitism of Megaselia Spp. (Diptera: Phoridae) in a Honeybee Colony in Slovakia
Authors: Sabo R. , Legáth J. , Staroň M. , Sabová L.
Published: December 2020

The current global climate warming trend leads to a shift in animal-habitats northwards. According to the Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute, summer 2018 was extremely hot and long throughout Slovakia. This was probably the fact that resulted in the detection of the presence of Megaselia spp. (Diptera: Phoridae) in one honeybee colony at the University apiary located in Rozhanovce (48° 46’ 27.24″ N; 21° 22’ 26.01″ E; eastern Slovakia). The first warning signal after opening the hive was the changed odour. During closer inspection, there were observed small parasitoid phorid larvae that emerged from the sealed bee brood; further examination revealed that the parasitized bee larvae and pupae contained emptied body cavities. Vice-versa, parasitisation was not detected in adult honey bees. Our knowledge of Diptera being responsible for parasitizing (even facultative) the honey bee (Apis mellifera) is still incomplete and needs to be investigated further in more details.

Published: December 2020

The main purpose of a topological index is to encode a chemical structure by a number. A topological index is a graph invariant, which decribes the topology of the graph and remains constant under a graph automorphism. Topological indices play a wide role in the study of QSAR (quantitative structure-activity relationship) and QSPR (quantitative structure-property relationship). Topological indices are implemented to judge the bioactivity of chemical compounds. In this article, we compute the ABC (atom-bond connectivity); ABC
4 (fourth version of ABC), GA (geometric arithmetic) and GA
5 (fifth version of GA) indices of some networks sheet. These networks include: octonano window sheet; equilateral triangular tetra sheet; rectangular sheet; and rectangular tetra sheet networks.
Basic Statistics of Jevons and Carli Indices under the GBM Price Model
Authors: Białek Jacek
Published: December 2020

Most countries use either the Jevons or Carli index for the calculation of their Consumer Price Index (CPI) at the lowest (elementary) level of aggregation. The choice of the elementary formula for inflation measurement does matter and the effect of the change of the index formula was estimated by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (2001). It has been shown in the literature that the difference between the Carli index and the Jevons index is bounded from below by the variance of the price relatives. In this article, we extend this result, comparing expected values and variances of these sample indices under the assumption that prices are described by a geometric Brownian motion (GBM). We provide formulas for their biases, variances and mean-squared errors.
Attributes of Eurasian Green Woodpecker (Picus viridis) nest cavities in Hungary
Authors: Gorman Gerard
Published: December 2020

Thirty-three nest cavities of Green Woodpeckers (Picus viridis) in Hungary were documented over a period of 15 years (2006–2020). Thirteen different tree species were used. All documented cavities were in the main trunks of trees. The mean cavity height was 5.6 m and 1.5 m standard deviation and ranged from 2 to 9 m. Tree trunk diameters ranged between 36–55 cm with a mean of 43.1 cm and 4.2 cm standard deviation. A southerly orientation of cavity entrances prevailed with a mean direction of 187° clockwise from north. The results suggest that cavity-entrance orientation was non-random.
The Evaluation of Fatty Acid Profile in the Diet of Patients in Psycho-neurological Hospitals
Authors: Beitane Ilze , Marisheva Alla
Published: December 2020

There is a strong correlation between diet and mental health, and malnutrition can contribute to the development of various psycho-neurological diseases. Fatty acid profile plays an important role in the treatment of psycho-neurological diseases; therefore, the aim of the current study was to evaluate fatty acid profile in the diet of patients in three Latvian psycho-neurological hospitals. Latvian psycho-neurological hospitals submitted a detailed one-week menu. The information in the menus was processed using the Fineli program. Each menu identified the composition of fatty acids.

The average fat concentration in different hospital menus ranged from 74.8 g to 96.1 g per day, where the concentration of saturated fatty acids ranged from 37.5 g to 47.7 g per day and the unsaturated fat concentration ranged from 35.9 g to 47 g per day. The n-3 PUFA content was consistent with the recommendations of a healthy individual, but it did not meet the needs of patients in a psycho-neurological hospital. The total eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid concentration in the hospital menus ranged from 0.03 to 0.13 g, which was significantly lower than recommended, whereas LA and ALA concentration in hospital menus is close to optimal. The trans-fatty acids concentration in hospital menus did not exceed 2.5 g per day, with the exception of one day in hospital No. 2.

The impact of diet on the treatment of psycho-neurological diseases in Latvian psycho-neurological hospitals has not been sufficiently assessed.
Influence of Germination Conditions and Parameters on the Content of Total Phenolic Compounds and Scavenging Activity in Germinated Seeds
Authors: Bernate Ilze , Sabovics Martins , Tomsone Lolita
Published: December 2020

Consumers are increasingly consuming sprouted seeds due to their low calories content, nutritional value, as well as beneficial effects on human health. Sprouts contain many bioactive compounds such as minerals, fibre, vitamin C, carotenoids and phenolic compounds. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of darkness, light and time total phenolic content and scavenging activity in alfalfa (Medicago sativa), radish (Raphanus sativus), broccoli (Brassica oleracea) and hemp (Cannabis sativa) seeds during germination. The seeds were washed, soaked in water by ratio of 2:1 (water : seeds) for 12±1 h and then germinated in light and dark conditions at a temperature of 22±2 °C and a relative humidity of 85±2% for different times (12, 24, 36 and 48 hours) in a climatic chamber ICH110 (Memmert, Germany). The quality changes of germinated seeds are determined by phenol content and scavenging activity. Un-germinated seeds were used as a control. The results of current studies show that after germination the highest increase in total phenols was in radish, broccoli and alfalfa seeds. The scavenging activity (SA) was higher after 48 hours of germination in all seed types compared to un-germinated seeds both in darkness and in light. This study shows that sprouted edible seeds are an excellent source of total phenolic compounds and has a high scavenging activity.

Published: December 2020

Cat scratch disease (CSD) is the main clinical manifestation caused by Bartonella henselae in immuno-competent patients. The bacterium is transmitted to humans from cats via scratches or bites. In this case report, we are presenting to our knowledge the first etiologically confirmed case of CSD in our country. Here we describe the case of a previously healthy adult female patient presenting with fever and axillar lymphadenopathy over 1-month period. She underwent numerous clinical and paraclinical investigations for potential etiologies associated with lymphadenopathy and fever. Finally, serological testing for B.henselae was performed with titers for IgG 1:1024 and 1:160 for IgM, which confirmed the diagnosis. Five-day treatment with azithromycin resulted with good clinical response and complete recovery. We proved that CSD is a reality in our country and this report should raise awareness in medical doctors, especially infectious disease specialist. Also, CSD should be included in differential diagnosis in patients with fever of unkown origin (FUO), who are presenting with regional lymphadenopathy, with or without history of cat contact.
Labour Supply and Regional Labour Market Situation
Authors: Blien Uwe , Hirschenauer Franziska
Published: December 2020

Germany is particularly affected by demographic change. Therefore, increasing labour market participation is considered an important labour market policy objective because it can counteract shortages of labour supply due to the aging population. The scope for increasing labour force participation is not limited to certain groups of people. It also has a spatial dimension. This paper therefore analyses the regional differences in the labour market participation of men and women of different age groups at the level of German district regions. In particular, we examine regional imbalances in the regional variation of labour force participation. Further relations to regional variables are examined using multiple regressions. The results of the analysis could be interpreted according to the so-called discouragement hypothesis which suggests that unfavourable regional labour market conditions have a negative impact on regional labour force participation. For the regional wage level, only a minimal, mostly positive correlation with the labour force participation can be established, which can be interpreted by the mutually compensating effects of wages. The regional qualification level shows a positive correlation with the participation of middle-aged and older people in the labour market. Finally, further evidence highlights the importance of full-time childcare facilities for the labour force participation of women and, increasingly, men.
Comparative Analysis of Simulation Results of Hard-to-Cut Materials Machining by Coated Cutting Tools
Authors: Vadym Stupnytskyy , She Xianning
Published: December 2020

The article describes the system approach to simulation the process of machining hard-to-cut materials using tools with wear-resistant coatings. In addition to increasing the wear resistance of the tool, factors such as thermal state model, load parameters and friction behavior at the tool-chip interface have been analyzed. A comparative analysis of these parameters is described in the article. It has been proven that the greatest wear of the cutting edge does not occur on the top of the tool, but in the area where the chip speed along the rake face of the cutting insert is greatest.

Published: December 2020

This article aims to better understand the determinants which support the ideologies of the Radical Left among young people in Switzerland. The analyses presented in the article are based on a survey on the theme of political radicalism which has been carried out in secondary schools on level II. The findings showed that economic and political deprivation, as well as a high degree of anti-authoritarianism, increase the probability of adhering to the different ideologies of the Radical Left. They also suggest that several aspects of the school context have an impact on the ideological positioning of young people.
Queering Drama - Or Let the Classics Going Beyond Limits
Authors: Nedelea Patricia
Published: December 2020

This article proposes, explains and describes an original method called Queering Drama, which is the result of this article’s author one decade of research. Queering Drama is not just a theoretical work hypothesis, but also a practical performing method of going beyond limits by Queering the characters of any classic play (the Queering Drama method can be applied to modern plays as well, but the classic plays are the ones most staged, in greater need for new meanings and refashioning). What happened if one character from a classic play would not be put on stage and played as the dramatist dictates, from a sex and gender perspective? What if, instead of a heterosexual woman (labeled by the dramatist as the wife of..., the daughter of...), the character were played as a bisexual male, or a lesbian female, or a plurisexual hermaphrodite? How would that change the relations between the characters? Would it make a difference? Would such staging change the meanings of the play? Queering Drama involves rethinking and discovering new ways of reading old iconic plays, more specifically through their (iconic, by now) characters, and implicitly uncovering new ways of putting them on stage. The possible performance results are infinite new meanings of old plays, original ways of looking at classic characters and unseen, maybe unimaginable ways of staging the classics. The multidisciplinary theoretical base of this daring aim at Drama and Stage, coming from Pirandello the dramatist, entangles the academic fields of Drama, Feminist Theory, Literary Theory and Epistemology.
The Theater And The Pandemic: The Theater In A Zoom Or Facebook Window
Authors: Iacobuţe Ramona-Petronela
Published: December 2020

The year 2020 is a difficult one for all of us: employees, employers, economic or cultural operators, event organizers, parents and children, artists and spectators. Nothing is as we knew it. The classroom, the performance hall, the office, all moved to our living room, and new technologies have shown us once again that we can no longer live without them in the 21st century, that they can save us in situations that at first sight have no solution. The emotion, the closeness, the direct contact from the rehearsals and from the performance hall have become a rarity for those who work in the artistic area, with the mass spread of a virus that does not take into account anyone’s needs. The artists were forced to bring on stage a mask that they would never have wanted there, the surgical one, and the theater to exceed new limits. Online rehearsals, in the heart of your own library, online premieres, live streaming and pay-per-view have all taken over a living art, an art that needs the here and now of the real, the physicality of real life. Screens are the new filters through which we sift our emotions. Distance art, technologymediated art, pseudo-appropriation are part of the new reality of those who creates and consume art. Surgical masks and visors become indispensable components when working on stage costumes and this can reduce emotion. But this is a challenge for artists like no other, their limits are tested, their creativity tried and their ability to adapt extremely demanded.
Isabelle – The Last Princess of Maurice Maeterlinck
Authors: Avram Cristi
Published: December 2020

Maurice Maeterlinck, the author of some of the plays associated with the symbolist aesthetic, in which the character is often an unseen presence associated to destiny or death, writes in the first part of his career a collection of dramas in which the heroines seem to appear each time under different guises. At the end of his career, Maeterlinck returns to the mysterious universe proposed in his first text – The Princess Maleine, finishing the circle of love dramas, the dramas of the profound self discovery. The princess Isabelle comes and claims the unfulfillment of her sisters from the previous texts, which she afterwards saves. The obsession of the water, a lethal substance for most of Maeterlinck’s heroines, becomes for Isabelle the unconscious need for purification. Being the last text published during this author’s life, it contains within its structure fragments from almost all his previous work, and thus there is a certain continuity and unity between the obscurity of this author’s beginnings and the light of revelation which precedes the great travel to the unknown.

Zapotrzebowanie na narzędzia urbanistyki operacyjnej do prowadzenia polityki rozwoju na obszarach rewitalizacji w Polsce
Authors: Spadło Katarzyna
Published: December 2020

Abstrakt

Wejście w życie ustawy o rewitalizacji, a także dostępność źródeł finansowania w ramach polityki spójności UE, umożliwiły samorządom wykorzystanie procesów rewitalizacji jako narzędzia rozwoju lokalnego. Za sprawą tej ustawy rewitalizacja przeszła ewolucję – z instrumentu polityki miejskiej stała się jedną z wielu polityk publicznych realizowanych również na terenach wiejskich. Tymczasem regulacje ustawy, ułatwiające realizację interwencji rewitalizacyjnej, uwzględniają głównie uwarunkowania śródmiejskich obszarów rewitalizacji i przeznaczają im specjalne instrumenty urbanistyki operacyjnej, usprawniające przede wszystkim gospodarkę nieruchomościami, w tym o przeznaczeniu mieszkaniowym. Z przeprowadzonych badań wynika, że na terenach wiejskich nie korzysta się z potencjału narzędzi ustawy o rewitalizacji – w przeciwieństwie do gmin miejskich, które wykorzystują je w odniesieniu do obszarów rewitalizacji położonych w centrach miast. Takie rozwiązania stoją w sprzeczności z faktycznymi potrzebami obszarów rewitalizacji w Polsce, które w dużej mierze wyznaczone zostały na terenach wiejskich, w tym popegeerowskich, poprzemysłowych i innych terenach niezamieszkanych. W artykule została podjęta próba analizy popytu obszarów rewitalizacji na instrumenty wsparcia wynikające z krajowego systemu wdrażania rewitalizacji.
Inflation Theories and Inflation Persistence in Iran
Authors: Dastgerdi Hamidreza Ghorbani
Published: December 2020

This study focuses on: (1) finding the causes of inflation which follows the inflation theories such as Demand-Pull, Cost-Push and Structural inflation.(2) measuring the degree of inflation persistence in order to evaluate the ability of monetary policies to control inflation. Engle- Granger test and the Autoregressive Distributed Lag are applied to analyze the response of inflation to its determinants. The Grid bootstrap Method and Impulse Response Functions measure the inflation persistence. The results suggest that controlling the money supply is a key factor in controlling inflation. The appreciation of Rial exchange rate is an important factor of low inflation. It is increased as a result of Budget deficit while decreased due to oil price and real GDP. Inflation persistence follows the structural changes and finally permanent shocks die out after some horizons. Therefore, monetary authorities control inflation but their policies are yet far from optimal level.

Published: December 2020

Esta pesquisa teve como proposta destacar as contingências que levam a mulher a permanecer por longos períodos de tempo em relacionamentos violentos. O estudo caracterizou-se como pesquisa aplicada e uma vasta revisão bibliográfica foi realizada. A dinâmica da violência foi analisada sob a perspectiva relacional de gênero e, por meio da caracterização histórica do feminismo, a compreensão que  concebe a violência como unilateral foi problematizada. Compreende-se que a violência não pode ser vista como uma ação individual, desarticulada do contexto macrossocial. Os sujeitos são dados na fusão histórica cultural do machismo, da sexualidade e do amor e comportam-se a partir destes dispositivos discursivos que perduram na história do ocidente e regulam as práticas sociais. O que rege as relações entre os sujeitos são os procedimentos de poder que condicionam a realizar o que diz o discurso. Portanto, as relações de poder são estabelecidas por meio de discursos e conclui-se que um grande contingente das correlações de forças encontram-se no campo das relações entre homens e mulheres.

Tropicality of Colonial Heritage Buildings in a Deltaic Landscape: British Colonial Architecture in Khulna
Authors: Islam Muhaiminul , Muntasir Hasan
Published: December 2020

During the 17th-18th century colonial period on the Indian subcontinent, British colonial architecture flourished – including in the Bengal Delta. Although colonial architecture was inherently different from the traditional architecture of this tropical region, the monsoon climate and deltaic landscape forced colonial style buildings to incorporate a number of tropical architectural features to ensure climatic comfort. In the contemporary period, due to pressure from population density, many colonial buildings have been demolished and replaced with multi-story buildings. However, the tropical forces of this deltaic region need to be evaluated in order to re-create climate responsive architecture. This study aims to identify tropical architectural features inherent within colonial buildings of Khulna, Bangladesh, a city which formed a junction in the deltaic region during the colonial period. Four colonial buildings have been selected as case studies: two residential buildings, one mixed-use building, and a school. Tropical features were analysed from photographic data, and reproductions of plans and sections of the selected buildings, in order to reveal the significant tropical architectural features of these colonial period buildings. The case studies reveal structural and design elements that aided ventilation and air flow, and controlled solar radiation, humidity and driving rain. The findings aim to encourage practicing architects to rethink climate responsiveness in contemporary buildings in Bangladesh, by revealing how, a century ago, colonial buildings were influenced by the tropical deltaic climate, which impacted foreign architectural ideology and practice.
Restrictions of Criminal Intelligence Measures in Law Enforcement Directive and Law on Criminal Intelligence of Lithuania
Authors: Markevičius Edgaras
Published: December 2020

Increasing use of technologies in the last decades has created an unprecedented opportunity to systematically collect and use a wide variety of data (including personal data) for different purposes. Information and data collected and processed with the help of new technologies is used not only for the purposes of natural and legal persons but also for various other purposes. Intelligence services that ensure prevention of crime must perform their functions to ensure safety of public. When doing so, they use various means and methods of information collection, which help them to reach their goals. However, the means applied undermine and intensively restrict a person’s right to private life. Given that two legal interests compete during the application of criminal intelligence measures, i.e. the individual’s right to privacy and ensuring of public security, the Author seeks to analyse their points of contact – restrictions of application of criminal intelligence measures, which in theory are designed to ensure the person’s right to private life. In this article, the Author analyses the restrictions on the application of criminal intelligence measures, which are present in international, Lithuanian legislation and compares them with relevant requirements set forth in the practice of European Union Court of Justice.

Pieaugošā tehnoloģiju izmantošana pēdējās desmitgadēs ir radījusi nepieredzētu iespēju sistemātiski ievākt un izmantot ļoti dažādus datus (ieskaitot personas datus) dažādiem mērķiem. Informācija un dati, kas ievākti un apstrādāti ar jauno tehnoloģiju palīdzību, tiek izmantoti ne tikai fizisko un juridisko personu vajadzībām, bet arī dažādiem citiem mērķiem.

To darot, viņi izmanto dažādus informācijas vākšanas līdzekļus un metodes, kas viņiem palīdz sasniegt savus mērķus. Tomēr izmantotie līdzekļi nereti grauj un intensīvi ierobežo personu tiesības uz privāto dzīvi.

Šajā rakstā autore ir izvēlējusies analizēt kriminālizlūkošanas pasākumu piemērošanas ierobežojumus: (1) obligāta iepriekšēja kontrole (sankcija) noteiktam kriminālizlūkošanas pasākumam, ko veic tiesa vai neatkarīga administratīva vienība; (2) kriminālizlūkošanas pasākumu ilguma ierobežošana; (3) kriminālizlūkošanas pasākumu samērīgums. Rakstā secināts, ka, kaut arī šie kriminālās izlūkošanas piemērošanas ierobežojumi likuma izpildes direktīvā parasti nepastāv, tie ir ietverti Lietuvas Republikas likumā par kriminālo izlūkošanu. Tomēr ar tiem var viegli manipulēt un tie nenodrošina tiesības uz privātās dzīves efektīvu aizsardzību.
The Oil Nationalizations in Bolivia (1937) and Mexico (1938): A Comparative Study of Asymmetric Confrontations with the United States
Authors: Flores Fidel Pérez , Cunha Filho Clayton M.
Published: December 2020

In the 1930s the Bolivian and Mexican governments decreed the nationalization of their respective oil industries, thus starting a juncture of tensions in their relationship with the United States government and companies. In both cases foreign companies quit the respective host countries, but Bolivia was less successful than Mexico in maintaining its initial stand in face of the external pressure. Following a most-similar-system design strategy to compare both cases of asymmetrical confrontation, which share a similar set of conditions regarding simultaneity, starting causes of the conflict, actors involved and international context, we contend that the difference in the confrontation’s resolution is mainly attributable to differing domestic variables. Controlling for the similarity in external conditions, we show that the building and maintenance of a strong internal support coalition was critical for the capacity of the weakest part to advance its interest in an asymmetrical atmosphere.

Na construção de uma sociedade igual, justa e solidária, concretizada através da erradicação da  pobreza e da efetivação da dignidade da pessoa humana, os três poderes da República deverão agir em parceria e harmonia, identificando quais as políticas públicas que devem ser cumpridas para que ocorra o desenvolvimento de toda a sociedade brasileira. A hipótese deste artigo é analisar se o Poder Judiciário, apesar do papel constitucional que lhe é específico, pode intervir na efetiva concretização  das políticas públicas sociais destinadas à construção de uma sociedade justa e igualitária. Serão analisados conceitos sobre políticas públicas, a possibilidade do seu controle  pelo Poder Judiciário e a concretização desse controle em decisões judiciais. Para a pesquisa, utilizou-se do método  hipotético-dedutivo mediante uma abordagem crítica pela revisão bibliográfica, documental e jurisprudencial sobre a temática.
THE INTERNATIONAL LABOR ORGANIZATION AS GUARANTEE OF MULTILATERALISM IN THE INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION, PROTECTION AND PROMOTION OF SOCIAL LABOR RIGHTS
Authors: Sancho Laura Huici
Published: December 2020

La Organización Internacional del Trabajo (en adelante OIT) se creó tras la Primera Guerra Mundial con el objetivo de facilitar la definición de estándares mínimos universales de derechos sociolaborales. La OIT desarrolla su función normativa a través de la aprobación de convenios y/o recomendaciones, que los Estados miembros pueden o no ratificar e incorporar o no, en consecuencia, a sus ordenamientos jurídicos internos. Su especificidad radica, por un lado, en su carácter de Organización internacional con vocación de universalidad y, por otro lado, en el tripartismo que caracteriza su funcionamiento, con la participación en sus órganos principales no solo de representantes de los gobiernos de los Estados miembros, sino también de las principales organizaciones sindicales y empresariales de los mismos[1]. Estas características esenciales dotan de legitimidad específica la actividad normativa de la OIT, haciéndola especialmente relevante para el reconocimiento, protección y promoción internacional de los derechos sociolaborales[2].[1] Para Philip Alston, desde el inicio del nuevo siglo asistimos a una progresiva pérdida de protagonismo de las organizaciones sindicales en la regulación de las relaciones laborales, lo que debería poner en cuestión también el tripartismo en la OIT (Alston, P., “Facing Up to the Complexities of the ILO’s Core Labour Standards Agenda”, European Journal of International Law, 2005, Vol. 16, núm. 3, pp. 467-480, p. 475). Con todo, consideramos que esta forma de funcionar que da entrada en la Organización a intereses diferentes a los estrictamente gubernamentales es un logro al que no cabe renunciar a la ligera y, por tanto, es todavía hoy una especificidad relevante a la espera de nuevas evoluciones.[2] Jordi Bonet abunda en ello al afirmar que “la OIT ha mantenido una aproximación integrada respecto de los derechos humanos: el ser humano es, en el ámbito socio-laboral, titular de un conjunto de derechos y libertades que son objeto de un tratamiento jurídico no diferenciado” (Bonet Pérez, J., Mundialización y régimen jurídico internacional del trabajo. La Organización Internacional del Trabajo como referente político-jurídico universal, Barcelona, Atelier/ANUE/UB, 2007, p. 163).
EDUCAÇÃO E TECNOLOGIAS: análise da cultura digital em universidade privada de Campo Grande-MS na concepção de discentes
Authors: Silveira Vladmir Oliveira da , Jaques Abner Da Silva
Published: December 2020

O presente trabalho objetiva analisar o uso dos instrumentos tecnológicos por parte do corpo discente do curso de direito de uma universidade privada, com a finalidade de verificar se há a existência de uma cultura digital estabelecida na instituição que influencia, de maneira negativa ou positiva, no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. A problemática busca responder se em virtude dos avanços tecnológicos seria possível a substituição ou sobreposição de seus mecanismos aos métodos tradicionais de ensino – baseados na relação de docente-discente de modo expositivo e intuitivo. A justificativa da pesquisa se consubstancia na ideia de que a partir do advento das novas tecnologias – entendidas como instrumentos para garantia de um direito humano fundamental relacionado ao acesso e à busca de conhecimento e informação pela internet – há uma revolução sensível no processo de educação que merece ser detidamente analisado com a finalidade de potencializar o processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Adota-se o método dedutivo, com base em pesquisas de campo, participante, bibliográfica (quanto aos meios); e exploratória e descritiva, quanto aos fins. Em relação à abordagem a pesquisa será qualitativa, cuja população participante compõe-se por discentes (líderes e vice-líderes) de turmas relacionadas ao curso de direito da instituição pesquisada, valendo-se, ainda, do instrumento da análise crítica do discurso para interpretar os resultados colhidos.
A IMPORTAÇÃO DOS INSTITUTOS JURÍDICOS NEGOCIAIS PARA O PROCESSO PENAL BRASILEIRO: CONSIDERAÇÕES CRÍTICAS
Authors: Wermuth Maiquel Ângelo Dezordi , Roloff Bruna Caregnato
Published: December 2020

O artigo aborda o tema da justiça consensual penal no âmbito brasileiro, analisando se a expansão dos mecanismos negociais, por meio de acordos mais amplos entre acusação e defesa, irá reforçar estigmas e acarretar violações a direitos fundamentais dos acusados. O tema se demonstra de extrema relevância atualmente face à tendência expansionista da justiça negocial que ocorre em diversos países. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida por meio do método hipotético-dedutivo e o método de procedimento monográfico com técnicas de pesquisa bibliográficas e documentais. Conclui-se que os métodos consensuais, em que pese formas eficazes e céleres de resolução de lides penais, devem ser utilizadas com muita prudência e apenas em casos pontuais, diante da possibilidade de que ocorram graves violações a garantias e direitos fundamentais em razão da utilização dos procedimentos abreviados.

Objectives:

Wrestling is a popular sport the world over. As one of the sports played during the Olympic games, it sees high player participation at both school and scholastic levels. However, player to player contact and its arduous nature leads to a high incidence of injuries. In spite of this, it has received little attention, especially with respect to injury rate in the Indian wrestlers. Hence, our aim was to study their pattern in these wrestlers.

Material and Methods:

We performed an observational study involving 190 wrestlers who were followed up over a period of 2 years. Their injuries were studied by means of a structured questionnaire, which they filled up with assistance from their athletic trainers.

Results:

A total of 184 injuries occurred in 190 wrestlers (≥16 years) with an injury rate of 5.08/1000 athlete exposure (A-E). There were 47.83% new injuries, while 52.1% were recurrent. Injuries that occurred during practice sessions were more than those during competitions. Most injuries occurred to the knee joint, followed by the shoulder joint. Ligament sprains and muscular strains were the most frequent injuries. Wrestlers practicing Freestyle (FS): Greeco-roman (GR) was 5.3:1. Statistically significant injuries to the trunk occurred in those practicing FS style. Ten wrestlers were operated for knee injuries.

Conclusion:

Indian wrestlers are at risk of higher injury rates, with the majority being recurrent and occurring mostly in practice sessions. The knee joint is most commonly involved, followed by the shoulder. FS is the preferred style and more commonly associated with trunk injuries. The goal of our study was to study the pattern of injuries in the Indian wrestler and to minimize the risk of injury by understanding the factors responsible.
