Reformulasi Undang-Undang Pilkada: Upaya Penanganan Praktik Money Politic di Indonesia
Authors: Insan Tajali Nur  , Vijae Yehezkiel Simanjuntak
Published: November 2024

The Head Election is one of the democratic parties of the Indonesian people. Pilkada is a form of leader regeneration in order to create new ideas and thoughts in an area. Through regional elections, it is hoped that qualified regional leaders will be elected who are in accordance with the will of the people. The practice of holding regional elections in Indonesia has reaped problems which have resulted in the violation of democratic principles. The problem that continues to occur is the practice of money politics which aims to influence the hearts of voters when conducting elections. This problem is caused by various sectors, one of which is regulation. The regulation of money politics, which each tries to divide the provisions of its legal subject, and the existence of structured, systematic and massive (TSM) elements in the administration of administrative sanctions are things that hinder the handling of money politics in Indonesia. Thus, this research will examine the reformulation needed to be able to deal with money politics. The research method used is a normative method. The research results show that there is an urgency to change the regional election law, especially regarding the subject of money politics and the requirements for the TSM element in granting administrative sanctions
Effects of Artisanal Mining on Land Degradation in Zamfara North-West, Nigeria
Authors: Goji Richard Abel , Bala Telzing Ponsak
Published: November 2024

This paper analyzed the effects of artisanal mining on land degradation. It took critical look on both legal and illegal mining activities in the study areas and their level of devastated effects on land texture and structure over space. The method implored is both probability and non-probability approaches. The purposive targeted populations for the study were licensed and unlicensed small scale gold mining operators in the study areas, with a sample population of 100 person, and types of data used is both primary and secondary sources. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistic and frequency chart that indicated major challenges was illiteracy 31% and lack of coordination among miners 23%, major effect of land degradation was water pollution and deforestation had 30% and 23% respectively, and effects of artisanal mining on land degradation was degradation of arable land had 20% and exposing the soil to wind and chemical had 18%. It had a serious implication on ecosystem. The paper concluded that artisanal mining of mineral ores had caused serious damages on the land resources both soil and rivers.  Therefore, to ensure sustainability in mining activities and to secure a quality environment, the following recommendations are hereby suggested, Educating local miners on the dangers of open cast mining and grinding of gold ore using the same grinder for grains to be consumed and Policy makers should avoid politicizing vital issues that will threaten peace and security of people in Zamfara and its environs.

Personal and family factors as predictors of etnocentrism and racism in individuals
Authors: Nešić Nevena , Marković Anja
Published: November 2024

The appearance of ethnocentrism and racism in individuals can be analyzed in the context of psychological and social factors. We examine the influence of personal factors through the unique perspective of psychoanalytic theory, with a focus on unconscious processes that influence the appearance of discriminatory attitudes and feelings. We point out the necessity of psychoanalytical work, aimed at raising awareness and transforming defense mechanisms, in order to reduce the prejudices of individuals. From the sociological aspect, it starts from the point of view that attitudes based on ethnocentrism and racism are adopted in the process of socialization, and the most dominant influence is the family, where the child is first informed about society. Using the method of content analysis of theoretical approaches on early socialization and the formation of prejudices towards social groups, the facts that point to the importance of family factors are argued. We conclude that the family, as the primary agent of socialization, has the most potential for combating prejudice by applying educational styles aimed at tolerance and multiculturalism. An integrative approach of psychological and social factors can contribute to the improvement of policies that strive for a solidary and democratic society.

İnsan fizyolojisi hareket ederek bir hayat sürmek üzere dizayn edilmiş, muhteşem bir yapıya sahiptir. Kuşkusuz her birey genetik yapısına bağlı olarak farklı kalıtım özellikleri ile dünyaya gelmektedir. Bireyler aynı tutarlılık ve ölçüde olmamasına rağmen ortak bir yapıda fizyolojik ihtiyaçlarını karşılayabilmek için hareket etme zorunluluğundadır. Fizyolojik ihtiyaçlarının yanında ayrıca sosyal bir varlık olan insan, yine ilişkilerini devam ettirmek için hareket etme ihtiyacındadır. İnsanlık tarihi boyunca bir zorunluluk olan hareket etme ihtiyacı, zaman içinde arz- talep ilişkisine bağlı olarak büyük bir endüstrinin ortay çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Günümüzde rekreasyonel aktivitelerden, spor organizasyonlarına kadar toplumların günlük yaşantıları için gerekli doğal ihtiyaçlara göre şekillenmiş bir spor endüstrisi gelişmiştir. Hemen hemen her bilim dalı ile ilişkili olan spor endüstrisi; üretim , pazarlama, sponsorluk, strateji, ürün geliştirme, rekabet, teknoloji, medya, hukuk, finans, insan kaynakları, eğitim ve arz talep gibi kavramlara sahip karmaşık bir yapıdadır Bu yapı doğal olarak insanın var olduğu her coğrafyada büyük bir ekonomik potansiyel ile varlığını devam ettirmektedir. Özellikle teknolojik gelişmelerin spor endüstrisi içinde çok hızlı yer aldığı ve adapte olmakta hiç zorlanmadığı görülmektedir. Yaşanan gelişmeler endüstrinin her koşul ve şartlarda kendisini ayakta tuttuğunu açıkçası ortaya koymaktadır. Özellikle Dünya genelinde etkili olan ve insan yaşantısında büyük değişiklere yol açan pandemi sürecinde, spor endüstrisinin tüm yapılarında çok hızlı bir entegrasyon izlenmiştir. Birçok sektör yok olma noktasına gelmesine rağmen, spor endüstrisi gerek pandemi sürecinde gerekse sonrasında gelişimine devam eden bir yapıya sahip olduğunu ispatlamıştır. Bu eserde; spor endüstrisinin pandemi öncesi düzenlenen spor organizasyonların yapısı ve nasıl bir ekonomik kimliğe sahip olduğu, pandemi sürecinde hangi koşullardan etkilenerek değişim gösterdiğini, sektörün farklı yapıları içinde, yine farklı coğrafyalardaki durumunu ele alarak bir analizi gerçekleştirmeyi hedefledik.

The recent Hague Court of Appeal judgment, in the appeal brought by Shell against the first instance decision in favour of the NGO Milieudefensie, held that Shell is legally obliged to reduce its scope 3 emissions, but did not order Shell to reduce them by 45%, or indeed any percentage. The judgment is likely to have a significant impact on climate change litigation against corporations beyond just the Netherlands. That impact will be all the greater if the losing parties, Milieudefensie and others, do not appeal.

This week’s decision in Shell v Milieudefensie from the Hague Court of Appeals seemed like a blow to climate litigation: Milieudefensie was ultimately unsuccessful in convincing the Court that it could transpose a global requirement for 45% emissions reductions by 2030 into an obligation for a particular actor. Yet, the Court of Appeals decision marks considerable progress in how we understand the civil liability of large Dutch economic actors for their contributions to climate change.

Metabolic functions of misunderstood D-2-hydroxyglutarate
Authors: Liu Yidong , Kang Zhaoqi , Zhang Wen , Ma Cuiqing , Xu Ping , Gao Chao
Published: November 2024

Isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation-induced D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HG) accumulation may promote the tumorigenesis of numerous cancers. D-2-HG produced by several promiscuous enzymatic reactions under normal conditions is also toxic to organisms. D-2-HG was thus previously viewed as an abnormal metabolite with no physiological function and D-2-HG conversion to 2-ketoglutarate by D-2-HG dehydrogenase seems to be a process of metabolite repair. However, several recent studies have revealed that D-2-HG production is not a meaningless process without a physiological purpose. D-2-HG production actually participates in many core metabolic processes, and disorders of these processes may be the reason for the D-2-HG accumulation in some tumors lacking the isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation. This review summarizes the diverse and widely distributed metabolic processes involving D-2-HG, highlights the physiological functions of D-2-HG generation from various precursors, and discusses the possible applications of enzymes related to D-2-HG metabolism in synthetic biology, diagnosis, and treatment of D-2-HG accumulation-induced diseases.
Temporal characterization of electroencephalogram slowing activity types
Authors: Sharma Shaurya , Zhou David , Sharma Devesh
Published: November 2024

Life-threatening diseases often remain undetected until irreversible consequences manifest. EEG (electroencephalogram; electrical activity in the brain) slowing, a common phenomenon in diseases like epilepsy and dementia, also appears in other critical conditions. In this study, we analyzed data samples from the Temple University Hospital dataset — comprised of a large general population — of EEG slowing to discern distinct characteristics. We hypothesized that we would identify distinct slowing characteristics and patterns in EEG data, identified through various analysis methods showing that detection and categorization of these patterns may serve as crucial indicators for the early detection of life-threatening diseases. We identified characteristics such as generalized or focal slowing and classified them into three categories. Through time-frequency analysis, frequency-domain clustering, time-domain clustering, and additional frequency analysis methods, we explored variations in EEG slowing patterns. Our findings indicate that computational analysis using K-Means clustering, UMAP, and t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE) algorithms against EEG data is able to identify distinct slowing patterns, suggesting that EEG features could be used for early detection and be pivotal in early intervention and prevention treatment strategies, thus confirming our hypothesis. This study highlights the critical features of EEG slowing and how these features correlate to specific types of slowing, suggesting a promising path toward new insights into disease-prevention mechanisms and further insights into disease etiology. A comprehensive understanding of the temporal aspects of EEG slowing may lead to further insights into the etiology of these diseases and facilitate future discoveries.
S’engager ici et maintenant: quatre exemples de mobilisation de nouveaux bénévoles réussie

Le fonctionnement de notre société repose sur l’engagement de nombreuses personnes dans le bénévolat. Mais bien des organisations ont aujourd’hui du mal à trouver des volontaires, parce que l’individualisme progresse et que les gens ont plus de possibilités de façonner leur vie à leur guise dans notre monde varié. Comment réussit-on à promouvoir l’engagement social? L’étude de cas du GDI «S’engager ici et maintenant: quatre exemples de mobilisation de nouveaux bénévoles réussie» s’intéresse à quatre organisations qui soutiennent avec succès un engagement ponctuel et peu contraignant: Critical Mass, un mouvement mondial de cyclistes; Gärngschee, une initiative de soutien aux personnes démunies; Haus pour Bienne, un centre culturel et éducatif et enfin OpenStreetMap, une communauté open source pour la création de cartes librement accessibles et utilisables. Accès à bas seuil et participation active aux décisions Les exemples présentés montrent que l’engagement peut être mobilisé sous différentes formes – de la protestation spontanée à vélo de Critical Mass jusqu’à la participation entièrement en ligne chez OpenStreetMap. Des points communs tels qu’un accès à bas seuil, la possibilité de vivre très vite des expériences valorisantes et une marge de manœuvre favorisent la motivation des participant-es et les incitent à approfondir leur engagement à leur guise, ainsi qu’à développer leurs propres projets. Le guide contenu dans l’étude offre de précieux conseils aux organisations qui souhaitent attirer des bénévoles.

Background: Historically, Asia had a lower prostate cancer (PCa) incidence and mortality compared with Western countries, but the gap is narrowing. Paradoxically, Asians have been reported to present with more advanced disease though more favorable outcomes. Despite PCa becoming an emerging health priority in East Asia, our knowledge remains limited. We compared the prevalence of high-grade PCa on biopsy and disease progression after radical prostatectomy (RP) in East Asian men from Asia and non-East Asian men from Western countries. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included men who underwent prostate biopsy and RP at academic centers in Shanghai, China, and Toronto, Canada (2014–2019). The expanded RP cohort included East Asian men from Singapore (n=282) and non-East Asians from Paris (n=192). Primary endpoints included the proportion of men with Gleason score (GS) ≥8 on biopsy and metastasis-free survival (MFS) after RP for GS ≥8. Multivariable logistic regression and Cox proportional hazard models were performed. Propensity score matching was used to reduce imbalances between cohorts. Results: PCa was found on biopsy in 2,343 of 4,905 (48%) East Asians and 2,317 of 3,482 (67%) non-East Asians (P<.001). Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels at presentation and the proportion of men with GS ≥8 were higher in East Asians than non-East Asians (12.4 vs 6.6 ng/mL and 15.0% vs 8.8%, respectively; both P<.001). On multivariable analysis, there was no difference in the proportion of men with GS ≥8 between matched cohorts with PSA <20 ng/mL (n=3,572; odds ratio, 1.05 [95% CI, 0.77–1.43]; P=.76). No difference in MFS was found after RP between matched cohorts (hazard ratio, 0.97 [95% CI, 0.55–1.70]; P=.92). Conclusions: This contemporary study demonstrates that East Asian men are equally as likely to harbor aggressive PCa on biopsy as non-East Asian men at PSA levels observed in screening programs, with no difference in disease aggressiveness after RP. The assumption that unfavorable PCa at diagnosis is more common but less aggressive in East Asians should be revisited and viewed in the context of the expected increase in the PCa burden worldwide.

Поредното издание на Годишника на Софийския университет – Исторически факултет за 2024 г. е том 107., който съдържа седем публикации, анонимно двойно рецензирани и организирани за първи път, в съответствие с решението на редколегията, в три раздела: Статии и студии; Дебюти; Отзиви.
Първият раздел включва изследвания върху събития, личности и процеси за времето от XV в. до нашата съвременност. Много добре обосновани на богат изворов материал, по своя характер те са исторически и историко-антроположки. Обхванати са въпроси от: сложните отношения между Византия и Ватикана през първата половина на XV в. във връзка с подписването на уния между Източната и Западната църква (Ивайла Попова, ORCID 0000-0002-8972-0455); благодатните приятелски взаимоотношения между двамата видни български просветители Петко Славейков и Христо Даскалов (Владимир Терзиев, ORCID 0000-0002-0890-3066); функционирането на специфичната държавна институция в България, създадена през 1942 г. по еврейските въпроси (Владимир Станев, ORCID 0000-0002-2226-3632; Даниела Ташева, ORCID 0009-0007-1317-1772); теренна работа относно обичая Калогерос в с. Мелики, Гърция, с цел проследяване и анализиране на промените в обичайно-обредната система както в конкретната селищна общност, така и в контекста на балканската действителност (Мира Маркова, ORCID 0000-0002-2891-0917; Ина Пачаманова, ORCID 0009-0001-1913-2228); анализа на вълшебна приказка от Брезнишко по метода на Владимир Проп, с хипотеза за съществували групи от въглищари и войнуци през османския период в този регион на Западна България (Надя Манолова-Николова, ORCID 0000-0001-9203-1864).
Раздел Дебюти представя пространна и аргументирана студия върху особеностите на диктатурата на Сула, с отлично анализирани исторически извори (Александър Москов, ORCID 0009-0006-3985-8890). Не по-малко интересни са двата материала в раздел Отзиви, с младежко-ентусиазирани идеи и впечатления (Андони Андреев, ORCID 0000-0001-9675-2159; Елица Ненова, ORCID 0000-0002-1289-7201).
Wpływ wojny domowej w Hiszpanii na aktywność terenową Komunistycznej Partii Zachodniej Białorusi i jej sympatyków w latach 1936–1939
Authors: Cichoracki Piotr
Published: November 2024

The Spanish Civil War (1936–1939) activated many political circles operating in the Second Republic. It also influenced the activity of the communist movement and, after the dissolution of its structures in 1938, its former activists and sympathisers. The article is devoted to the manifestations of the field activity of communist structures and the influence of the Iberian Peninsula conflict on that part of the Belarusian society which favourably received the message formulated by local communists or coming directly from the USSR. Issues such as the propaganda illumination of the war in Spain, the reception of recruitment slogans for the army of the Republic, and the problem of inspiring a financial effort in its favour are addressed. The echoes of the Spanish conflict, considered in the context of the functioning of the KPZB and its supporters, make it possible to conclude that this was an important but not a priority direction in the Communists’ activities. At the same time, they were part of the trend of growing pro-Soviet sentiments observable among the Belarusian community of the Second Republic.

Artykuł mówi o tym, jak Konstanty Kalinowski znalazł się w panteonie działaczy narodowych Białorusi od razu po I wojnie światowej i jak wiele ta postać znaczyła dla walki Białorusinów o narodowe wyzwolenie w latach 1920–1940. W BSRS Kalinowski był zakazany, tyle że uważany przez komunistów z terenu Zachodniej Białorusi za ich prekursora. W latach okupacji hitlerowskiej ponownie stał się symbolem walki narodu z najeźdźcą
Яўрэі ў паўстанні 1863–1864 гг. (па матэрыялах Гродзенскай губерні)

W artykule zbadano stosunek Żydów guberni grodzieńskiej do powstania styczniowego 1863–1864 w oparciu o źródła archiwalne i literaturę historyczną. Pokazano różne formy żydowskiego wsparcia powstańców: zbieranie datków pieniężnych dla oddziałów powstańczych, dostarczanie powstańcom potrzebnych informacji, amunicji, odzieży, żywności itp. Z drugiej strony, część Żydów pomagała władzom carskim w stłumieniu powstania. Niektórzy Żydzi wykorzystywali sytuację polityczną w regionie i pisali donosy, aby wyrównać rachunki z rywalami lub z innych powodów. Cała paleta postaw Żydów wobec powstania styczniowego ukazuje społeczne, ideologiczne i polityczne zróżnicowanie ludności żydowskiej. Większość, zwłaszcza ortodoksi i chasydzi, nie rozumiała celów powstania i pozostawała wobec niego obojętna lub neutralna. Istotnym czynnikiem odstraszającym była religia: judaizm posiada szereg elementów, które nakierowane są na akceptację prawa w kraju osiedlenia oraz lojalność wobec zastanej władzy.

This research aims to underscore the significance of women's emotional intelligence in enhancing the effectiveness of the Board of Directors, a crucial component of internal governance, particularly during crises. Despite strides made in recent decades in appointing women to senior roles in government, business, and education, challenges persist in improving women's leadership opportunities, especially in developing countries. The study utilizes statistical methods, including Pearson's correlation, to analyze the relationships between variables within a sample of banks listed on the Iraqi securities market, comparing periods before and during the COVID-19 pandemic (2019 and 2020). The goal is to measure the impact of female emotional intelligence on the Board of Directors' ability to manage crises, focusing on variables such as conservative accounting policies, Board compensation and benefits, meeting frequency, the ratio of external auditor fees to enterprise capital, enterprise capital, share profitability, and the market-to-share profitability ratio. Findings indicate that emotional intelligence (measured by the number of females on the Board) positively influences conservative accounting policies and meeting frequency during crisis periods. Conversely, the pre-crisis period showed a negative relationship, suggesting a proactive and risk-responsive stance by women during crisis. Additionally, the study observed an inverse relationship between crisis periods and both Board compensation and external auditor fee ratios, implying a cost-reduction strategy facilitated by female emotional intelligence. The crisis period also saw an increase in the profitability of individual shares and the market-to-share profitability ratio. The research recommends expanding the study to compare the role of emotional intelligence in Boards between developing and developed economies.
