Protests in Europe in Times of Crisis -The Case of Greece, Ireland and Portugal
Authors: Silva Célia Taborda
Published: December 2022

The year 2008 was marked by a financial crisis that started in the United States but quickly spread to the rest of the world. Subprime-related, this crisis was linked to property speculation, leveraged by the banking sector. This crisis quickly spread to Europe due to exposure of European economies to international markets. To avoid economic collapse the States decided to intervene in the banking sector, nationalizing some banks and injecting capital in others. Some European countries not to enter bankruptcy had to ask for external financial support between 2010-11, was the case of Greece, Ireland and Portugal. The aid granted by the Troika (European Union, European Central Bank, International Monetary Fund) to European countries referenced advocated a drastic austerity plan. Faced with such a scenario of crisis, austerity, unemployment and precariousness, Europeans came to the streets to demonstrate their discontent with the crisis but also with politicians and policies implemented to solve the economic problems. Throughout Europe there were large protests, especially in the countries that received international aid. From a corpus taken from newspapers and from a theoretical framework of social movements we intend to verify if there was a direct relationship between crisis and contestation in the three countries that had external aid and if this crisis returned the centrality to materials on European social movements.
The new renaissance of family medicine: Myth or reality
Authors: Homar Vesna , Švab Igor
Published: December 2022

Renaissance is the term used for the societal movement that marked the end of the Middle Ages. With the development of science came the rediscovery of the works and values of ancient scholars. This brought enormous development in all areas of society, including education. Man became the measure of all things, humanism became important again, and there was a blossoming of science and art.

The ‘renaissance of family medicine’ took place approximately 50 years ago as a response to over-technical (even inhumane) medicine. Family medicine focused on the patient and was, as such, rediscovered and developed as a scientific discipline.

In 2022 Wonca Europe launched a new document that set out the core values of family medicine, initiating a discussion about the ‘new’ renaissance of family medicine. The idea implies that, due to the changes brought about by rapid technical advances and recent global events, family medicine will develop further. However, the really intriguing question is whether these rapid and dramatic changes will actually result in a new renaissance of family medicine or whether they will result in its decline.
Parents’ perspective on probiotics in preschool children: A cross-sectional survey
Authors: Bezek Katja , Fajković Emina , Stubelj Mojca
Published: December 2022

Introduction

The composition of the human gut microbiota, which can also be regulated by the consumption of probiotics, has a significant impact on host health. The main source of probiotics can be foods such as fermented foods, yogurts, fermented drinks and/or probiotic supplements. While parents play a critical role in ensuring the well-being of their children, this cross-sectional study is focused on parents’ perspectives regarding the use of probiotics in the preschool period.

Methods

The self-administered online survey consisted of 24 questions arranged across two thematic sections. The final data analysis included 102 parents (96% F; 4% M), aged between 22 and 47. Their children were aged up to 6 years.

Results

The majority (52%) of the parents were familiar with the term ‘probiotics’ and 86.3% were including probiotics in their children’s diet at the time of the survey. The main source was probiotic food (36.3%), of which yoghurt was the most commonly consumed (87.2%). The inclusion of probiotic supplements in a child’s diet was positively correlated with parents’ consumption and level of knowledge about the term ‘probiotics’. Digestive tract-related disorders were the most frequently reported motive for the initial introduction of probiotics into children’s diet.

Conclusions

Based on our study results, parents are familiar with probiotics and include them in their children’s diet. However, an attempt should be made to close the gaps in parents’ knowledge that our research identified. Further studies are needed to determine the recommended amount of probiotic foods, as well as strategies to educate parents about the benefits of including probiotic foods in their children’s diet.

Published: December 2022

Objectives: To produce a systematic review regarding the effect of graphene-reinforced polymethylmethacrylate used in dentistry on mechanical properties. Methods: Electronic databases (Pubmed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, Embase) were independently searched by two researchers for relevant studies published up to December 2021. An additional manual search was performed to identify relevant publications. The population, intervention, comparison, and outcome (PICO) question was “In dentistry, does graphene-reinforced polymethylmethacrylate offer better mechanical properties than conventional polymethylmethacrylate?”. The selection of articles was carried out according to the established inclusion and exclusion criteria, following the PRISMA flowchart. The inter-investigator reliability was assessed by Cohen’s Kappa coefficient. The risk of bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Quasi-experimental Studies. Results: Six in vitro studies were included in the qualitative analysis. A total of 247 specimens were evaluated: 81 made of non-reinforced PMMA resin and 166 of PMMA reinforced with graphene. The mechanical properties evaluated were flexural strength, flexural modulus, hardness, biaxial flexural strength, and impact strength. These properties seem to improve with the addition of graphene in certain concentrations. The analysis of the risk of bias showed low risk. Conclusions: Within the limitation of this study, graphene seems to strengthen some mechanical properties of PMMA dental resin. However, more studies are needed to understand the ideal graphene concentration to improve resin’s clinical performance.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the factors affecting stay time by analyzing the clinical features of critically sick admitted patients to the emergency department (ED).
Methods: This retrospective study included all patients who visited the ED between January 2018 and December 2019, and who had an Emergency Severity Index rating of 1 or 2. Stay time more than or equal to 4 hours and stay time less than 4 hours were the two groups into which the patients were split. Various factors were thoroughly examined and contrasted between the two groups.
Results: The top five disease categories were the nervous system (26.5%), respiratory system (22%), cardiovascular system (14.6%), digestive system (11.7%), and trauma (9.6%). The risk of long stay time was increased with age over 60 years, admission in the winter season, diseases of the blood, respiratory, immune system, and tumors. The nervous system, trauma, and the use of invasive ventilation were linked to shorter stay time in the ED.
Conclusion: This study could assist ED physicians in better allocating medical resources and evaluating the state of each patient on an individual basis.

Published: December 2022

Throughout the course of Islamic civilization, Muslims have experienced various kinds of dynamics of life. Islam once stood at the pinnacle of civilization before the Islamic world finally realized its backwardness from the Western world. In the golden age of Islam, the progress of Islamic scholarship was much enlivened by the thoughts of Muslim scholars. Likewise, when the Islamic world began to recede, Islamic thinkers always flowed their thoughts in various fields and contributed and greatly influenced the life and intellectuality of Muslims to this day. So, it is important to mention who are the Muslim scholars who have stuck their fangs and brought influence even to all corners of the world. These are 10 of the many Muslim intellectuals whose influence is very large for intellectual progress and the lives of Muslims. The ten figures include Al-Kindi, Al-Asy’ari, Al-Farabi, Ibn Sina, Al-Ghazali, Ibn Rushd, Ibn Taimiyah, Ibn Khaldun, Al-Afghani and Muhammad Abduh. The thoughts and contributions of these 10 figures are summarized in Nurcholish Madjid’s work entitled Khazanah Intelektual Islam. Thus, this paper aims to reveal and analyze critically and analytically what is contained in the book relating to the figures of Muslim intellectuals mentioned above. From the process of reviewing this book, it was found that Cak Nur’s work is quite comprehensive in conveying the intellectual journey of the Islamic world in a coherent manner, especially in the preamble which he compiled with a solid and neat content telling the development of critical thinking of Muslims from the friend of Umar bin Khatab to the modernist figure Muhammad. Abduh. In the following chapters, the main ideas of the ten figures are presented. This work makes it very easy for the reader to grasp the developments and differences of thought among the great figures of Islam.

Authors: Bagherani Nooshin , Shaheydar Abdolkarim , Smoller Bruce R. , Kajbaf Hossein Ale
Published: December 2022

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is a non-profit organization that offers health and medical services to people regardless of race, gender, beliefs, religion, and political origins. Doctors of MSF provide healthcare services ranging from consultations, vaccinations, and primary care to the most complex surgeries. In addition, they also understand the risk of working in dangerous regions with a high prevalence of diseases, underdistress, insecurity, and war in underdeveloped or third-world countries. The legal status of humanitarian aid workers, such as doctors without borders in international law, has not been determined due to the unclear definition of “humanitarian aid workers” in international humanitarian law. This normative legal research employed a web-based survey to collect relevant articles, books, reports, or studies relating to national and international humanitarian organizations and workers, NGOs, and the legal status of these organizations and their workers. This research explored how MSF adequately supports its primary staffs and the doctors.
الفتح العثماني لشبه جزيرة القرم عام 1475م

Published: December 2022

تقع شبه جزيرة القرم جنوب روسيا على الساحل الشمالي للبحر الاسود، وتبلغ مساحتها ستة وعشرين كيلومتراً مربع. وكلمة القرم تعني القلعة بلغة التتار، وهم السكان الأصليون للقرم، الذين اكتسحوها في القرن الثالث عشر الميلادي ونجحوا في تأسيس امارة القبيلة الذهبية التي بسطت سيطرتها على شبه جزيرة القرم.
استطاعت جمهورية جنوا من انشاء مستعمرة لها في كافا منذ عام 1266م، وبمرور الزمن اصبحت ميناء كافا، الميناء الرئيس للنشاط التجاري لجنوا في شبه جزيرة القرم.
وعلى الرغم من توقيع اتفاقية بين الدولة العثمانية وجمهورية جنوا في 11 اذار 1454م، فإن استحواذ تجار جنوا على تجارة البحر الاسود ازعج السلطان العثماني محمد الفاتح (1451-1481م)، الامر الذي دفعه الى اتخاذ قرار بضرورة ارسال قوة عثمانية تتولى مهمة فتح جزيرة القرم، وقد تمكن اسطول عثماني بقيادة الصدر الاعظم كدك احمد باشا من فتح القرم في 9 حزيران 1475م، بعد ان استولى على مدن منها منكوب وكورفوا وطوقاق وغيرها من المدن التابعة للقرم، وبذلك اخضعت شبه جزيرة القرم بالكامل للسيادة العثمانية، وعد البعض شبه جزيرة القرم من اهم المناطق التي وقعت تحت الحكم العثماني لموقعها الاستراتيجي المميز ولكثرة خيراتها وتحصيناتها المنيعة.

The article carries out a system-structural analysis of crime prevention subjects as a basic criminological category. The main scientific approaches to the definition of crime prevention subjects have been defined and analysed: as a collection of crime prevention subjects and as a corresponding system of these subjects. Expediency of subjects’ consideration operating in the sphere of crime prevention as a socially determined hierarchical system has been argued. It has been proved that systematic approach to solving this issue allows to determine the place and role of the specified subjects in the general structure of crime prevention, to outline their functional connections, overcome the possible duplication of performed functions and if it is necessary to strengthen the influence on a certain segment of criminogenic factors. The role of citizens as autonomous subjects of crime prevention has been analysed. Expediency of including citizens in the system of crime prevention subjects through the category of citizenship, which in the studied aspect is proposed to be understood as the internal conscientious attitude of a person to the fulfillment of their civic duty in the field of crime prevention, has been determined. The article develops the author’s understanding of the concepts of the subject of crime prevention and the system of crime prevention subjects. The aim of the article is to develop one’s own understanding of the concepts of crime prevention subjects and the system of crime prevention subjects that meet today’s needs. Set of general scientific and special scientific methods of cognition was used for achieving the goal and objectives. The starting point was the dialectical method, according to which all the problematic issues that will be addressed in this article are presented in the form of unity of their content and legal form. The logical and semantic method was used for defining and deepening the conceptual apparatus; sociological (study of official, scientific and bibliographic sources) – while collecting and accumulating scientific information about the object and subject of the research; logical and legal – while developing scientifically substantiated proposals for improvement of current legislation, etc. Keywords: citizens, citizen control, civic duty, crime prevention, subject of crime prevention, system of crime prevention subjects
The Impact of the Legalization of Criminally Obtained Funds on the Economy of Latvia
Authors:   Office of Sworn Advocates “Neimane & Partners”, Neimane Liene
Published: December 2022

The legitimate aim of confiscation of proceeds of crime can be defined as the removal of proceeds of crime from lawful civil circulation in order to prevent its further circulation and the further commission of criminal offences and to reduce the financial incentive to commit criminal offences. The author’s research of case law and latest trends has led her to the conclusion that the recognition of property as proceeds of crime requires time and understanding of the application of the respective rules in practice. The paper is second part of previously published article. The paper studies current issues in money laundering cases and latest trends. To prove the legal origin of property, it is often the case that the evidence presented is deemed insufficient by the persons directing the proceedings. In many cases, property or other tangible assets are confiscated simply because of a lack of understanding or adequate education, knowledge and practical experience, which leads to unjustified decisions to declare property as proceeds of crime and to confiscate it for the benefit of the state. This also puts the state itself at risk, as eventually diverse types of claims are brought, including for damage compensation; human rights violations are also identified. Keywords: stand alone, anti-money laundering, money laundering and related issues

Authors:   Rīga Stradiņš University, Latvia, Jansons Mārtiņš
Published: December 2022

Under conditions of the Covid-19 pandemic and the military operations carried out by the Russian Federation in Ukraine, including the tension between the Western countries and the Russian Federation, the application of coercive means of influence to legal entities in criminal proceedings and peculiarities and problems of the criminal legal regulation related to their application, which hinder or even prevent, have become especially relevant to achieve the goal of the criminal process and lead it to a fair settlement of criminal legal relations. Criminal legal regulation regarding the application of coercive measures to legal entities is periodically improved in order to make the application of coercive measures more effective; however, shortcomings of the criminal legal framework still prevent effective action against legal entities by applying coercive measures to them in practice, as evidenced by the small number of initiated processes on the application of coercive measures for legal entities, which is also indicated by international organisations. The legislator has already started the process of improving the criminal legal framework; however, according to the author, there are a number of gaps in the criminal legal framework that hinder or even prevent application of means of coercive influence on legal entities in criminal proceedings. The purpose of the article is to research national and international criminal law regulation of legal entities criminal liability and identify and analyse problems of the criminal law regulation in the Republic of Latvia at various stages of the process of applying coercive measures to legal entities. General methods of scientific research and methods of legal interpretation have been used in the research. Keywords: legal entities, security measure, coercive measures

Louise Glück’s «Persephone the Wanderer» read from a psychoanalytic and Classical Receptions perspective
Authors:   Universidad de Almería (España), Kichouh Aiadi Sanae
Published: December 2022

Louise Glück provides a compelling example of Classical Receptions in contemporary poetry. Hence, this paper aims at discussing Glück’s psychoanalytic interpretation of the so-called Homeric Hymn to Demeter and «Persephone the Wanderer», a poem pertaining to Glück’s Averno (2006), attempting to demonstrate the appropriation of the myth of Demeter and Persephone from a psychoanalytic approach. After an introduction to the Homeric Hymn to Demeter (Foley, 1994), and Louise Glück and her poem «Persephone the Wanderer», I will compare the myth of Demeter and Persephone in the Homeric Hymn to Demeter with Glück’s «Persephone the Wanderer». From a psychoanalytic perspective, Demeter’s psychological state will be addressed while pointing out her motherhood and her grief, and then I will associate the concept of narcissism to both Demeter and Hades in Glück’s poem and its impact on Persephone.

Published: December 2022

The article draws upon Minoan 'foundation deposits', focusing on issues such as typology, content, context and interpretation. As Hunt (2006: 128) points out... «foundation rituals were not isolated cult practices but belonged to a cultic koine that existed throughout the ancient Mediterranean». It seems that ‘foundation’ ceremonies are connected with the “initiation” and “consecration” of a building’s life, usually through “religious” as well as “magical” practices including the ritual burial and integration of sacrificial offerings into the “corps” of the building for its everlasting protection and prosperity
JURIDICAL PROBLEMS ON COOPERATIVE BANK REGULATIONS ON INDONESIA'S ECONOMIC GOALS
Authors: Almaududi Almaududi , Mazelfi Ihsani
Published: December 2022

This paper is concerned with the juridical problems on cooperative banks’ regulations on Indonesia’s goals stated in the 1945 Constitution Republic of Indonesia. The problems arise due to the absence of commercial banks in the form of cooperative banks. Furthermore, Indonesia has a minimum number of cooperative rural banks (BPR Co). Currently, OJK registered only 19 BPR Co out of 1545 BPRs (0.01%). The study aims to examine the juridical problems of cooperative bank regulation in Indonesia’s goals as stated in the 1945 Constitution. It is normative research, analyzed qualitatively and presented in a descriptive. The study reveals that the Government and the Financial Services Authority (OJK) have no intention of further regulating the legal form of Cooperative Banks. We can see it from the non-accommodation of Cooperative Banks in Law on Syariah Banking. In addition, we could also see it from the absence of regulation on Cooperatives Commercial Bank in OJK Regulation. Therefore, it is not surprising that no commercial banks in Indonesia are in the legal form of cooperative.

Published: December 2022

Communication is an essential ability for every human being. In this study, the focus of communication was on students' mathematical communication. Mathematical communication is a person's ability to express their thoughts and is responsible for listening, interpreting, asking, and interpreting ideas from one to another to solve problems. This study aimed to describe the mathematical communication of Sombron Elementary School students in solving mathematical problems. This type of research is qualitative descriptive research. The research subjects were 23 students in class VI Sombron Elementary School. Three issues were selected for more in-depth analysis because they represented three categories: high, medium, and low ability students. Based on the subjects' works, the students could not communicate their mathematical ideas well yet. The most common communication error was a mistake in changing the word problem into a settlement model form. Based on the results and discussions that have been carried out with three different subjects, high ability student (ST), moderate ability student (SS), and low ability student (SR) of Sombron Elementary School at class VI, it can be concluded that ST and SS understand the meaning of the problem given and they know what was asked from the issue, but they did not use a correct symbol while writing their idea. ST and SS also made some mistakes in using mathematics symbols.

Distribution system Springs Sikumbang Kampar is from the primary seller, and the distributor distributes it to the public. The Sikumbang Kampar Springs distributor is experiencing the problem of increasing the cost of distribution because it does not have a distribution pattern. Therefore, it takes a transportation model to complain distribution problems experienced by the distributor of Springs Sikumbang Kampar. The research was conducted to obtain the minimum cost in distributing the drinking water to help distributors solve these problems. For this reason, a method is needed in compiling a mathematical model appropriate to the distribution problem. The methods used in the study are Vogel's Approximation Method (VAM), Improved Vogel's Approximation Method (IVAM), Max-Min Vogel's Approximation Method (MM-VAM), and Modified Vogel's Approximation Method (MVAM). Based on the results of the study, Vogel's Approximation Method generates total cost different initial solutions. Vogel's Approximation Method is more efficient, as it has few iterations to obtain the optimal solution using the stepping stone method. Distributors can consider the use of Vogel's Approximation Method in optimizing the distribution costs of drinking water from Sikumbang Kampar Springs. Total distribution transportation costs Sikumbang Kampar Springs per week uses transportation model is Rp 4,580,485.00. This result is more optimal for transportation costs distributor, that is Rp 5.050.000.000,00, so there is a reduction in transportation for Rp 469,515.00.
