Effects of nano zeolite-coated fertilizer and cow boneon the growth and N uptake of maize in inceptisol of Patuk, Gunung Kidul
Authors: Anwar Khairul , Utami Sri Nuryani Hidayah , Nurudin Makruf
Published: December 2022

Nanotechnology is a science that deals with objects measuring 1-100 nm that are different from their original properties. Nano-technology fertilizers are more reactive and on target with minimum use. Nanotechnology fertilizers can be utilized as slow-release fertilizers, allowing for optimum fertilizer uptake by plants. Because of the holes that can store nitrogen fertilizers, zeolite and bovine bone can be utilized as fertilizer coatings. This study was conducted at Universitas Gadjah Mada's Faculty of Agriculture. The research method used was a 2X5 factorial completely randomized design (CRD) with each treatment being repeated 3 times so that the total polybags used were 30 polybags. The first factor was the type of coating material for urea, nano zeolite, and nano bovine bone. The second factor consisted of a dose of coated urea fertilizer with five kinds of dose treatments, which were 0, 100, 200, 300, and 400kg.ha-1. ANOVA was used to analyze parameter data, followed by testing using the DMRT (Duncan's Multiple Range Test). When compared to nano bovine bone, the effectiveness of N removal with nano zeolite generated the best results as a slow-release fertilizer on N uptake. The best N fertilization dose with nano zeolite coating was 200 kg.ha-1, which increased corn plant growth by producing the highest plant height (167.17 cm) and N uptake of 1.6 g/plant. This research can be a recommendation for more effective and efficient Nitrogen fertilization for corn farmers.

Published: December 2022

This study aimed at determining how different rates of poultry manure affected the growth and production of onions (Allium cepa L.) in wet and dry seasons. The experiment was conducted from July to October 2019 and from January to April 2020 at the Department of Crop Science teaching and research farm, University of Nigeria Nsukka, South Eastern Nigeria. The experiment applied a randomized complete block design with nine replications spread over three blocks. The treatments were four doses of poultry manure (0, 10, 20 and 30 t.ha-1) tried in two seasons (wet and dry season). Prior to the investigations, soil analysis of the experimental site and poultry manure nutrient content were carried out. The growth pattern and yield was higher during the wet season. Poultry manure at amount of 30 t.ha-1 gave the best growth attributes (number of leaves, leaf length, and leaf diameter) 14.22, 53.67 cm and 0.88 cm respectively while the 20 t.ha-1 had the highest plant height and bulb fresh weight, 60.86 cm and 2 kg/plant respectively. The trend was not the same as in dry season planting because 20 t.ha-1 poultry manure differs significantly from other rates of poultry manure considered. Plant height, leaf length, leaf diameter and bulb fresh weight (57.64 cm, 55.28 cm, 0.84 cm and 0.63 kg/plant respectively) were statistically significantly (p < 0.05) different at 5% probability level.  Utilization of 20 t.ha-1 of poultry manure and planting in wet season gave the best growth and yield of onion vegetable.

Published: December 2022

This study was conducted to characterize and classify the soils of the Teaching and Research Farm, Rivers State University, Port Harcourt, covering 30 hectares of land area. A rigid grid soil survey method at a very detailed level (100 × 100) m² (1 ha) with two mapping units identified and delineated. Each of the mapping unit was represented by a soil profile described from the lowest end to the upper part of the profiles to avoid contamination. Soil samples were collected for laboratory analysis from the various horizons identified. The results obtained, indicated that the soils were of Inceptisols/ Cambisol order, Udepts at the suborder level, Eutrudepts Great group level and Typic Eutrudepts (subgroup level). Thus, the drainage, parent materials, climate (rainfall), and vegetation of the area along with the geologic material, formed from the sedimentary rocks that were weathered into coastal plain sands and buried under alluvium at various degrees at different locations in the study area, greatly affected the soils of Teaching and Research Farm, Rivers State University, Port Harcourt, which are primarily Inceptisols/ Cambisols.
Problematizing the Minimum Age of Marriage: The State and Local Perspective on Marriage Dispensation in South Sulawesi
Authors: Idrus Nurul Ilmi
Published: December 2022

Child marriage occurs throughout the world, in developed countries and especially in developing countries, including Indonesia. This article examines how categorisation of age is problematised particularly in relation to marriage dispensation after the amendments of marriage law in 2019. Using a qualitative approach, this study was conducted in Maros Baru District, Maros Regency, South Sulawesi. Thirty-seven participants were interviewed and a total of 30 participants were involved in three focus group discussions. Findings demonstrate that there is a gap between legal categorisation of age and its local interpretation in the context of marriage practices. While the amendment of marriage law in 2019 aims to increase the minimum age of marriage, marriage dispensation still occurs. Marriage dispensation is usually given under the consideration of supported evidence in relation to the benefits (maslahat) as well as the harms (mudharat). However, when a request of marriage dispensation is rejected, marriage still occurs. As such, it is common for unregistered marriage (nikah siri) to be a “way out”.
Obor: One Belt, One Road Initiative, China Pakistan Economic Corridor, Challenges, and Impediments
Authors: Ahmad Professor Dr. Syed Salahuddin
Published: December 2022

The One Belt, One Road initiative not only proposes significant potentials in multifaceted realms including economic, political, strategic, and geographical dimensions, it also presents many uncertainties and possible apprehensions for the associated countries. The initiative broadly includes five areas of regional connectivity: policy reformation, infrastructure development, trade regimes and investment. The trade and investment facilitation are one of the main areas where the developing countries like Pakistan need to focus upon. The OBOR initiative paves regional connectivity paths between Pakistan, China, Central Asian Republics. Pakistan-China friendship is an incomparable phenomenon. The two states have nothing in common in terms of history, language, ethnicity, culture, or ideology, yet their nexus is being considered as deeply rooted and time-tested which has developed into a comprehensive strategic partnership. Pakistan-China partnership sustained and remained unaffected during changes of leaders, political system in the realm of regional and international politics. Both states have developed an ideal state-to-state relationship based on complete trust. They have been steadfast friends who have supported each other throughout thick and thin. On one hand, this initiative fosters new opportunities, but on the other it also unveils challenges. With the Chinese over production, the Asian markets will thus be loaded with the Chinese products, suppressing the Pakistan markets. This paper through secondary data investigation, takes a closer look at the One Belt, One Road initiative and its impact on Pakistan

How to Explore a Sustainable Profit Model for Self-publishing --Based on the Perspective of New Institutional Economics
Authors: Yang Qingran
Published: December 2022

As a new media form in the new era, self-media has been developing rapidly in China. With the globalization of economy, the continuous improvement of technology and the popularization and perfection of mobile Internet technology, the self-media industry is facing great opportunities and challenges. The profitability of self-media is getting richer and richer, and a variety of more systematic profit models are gradually formed, but the overall profitability is not optimistic, which is not unrelated to the high transaction costs and the lack of management system. This paper will explore more sustainable profit models based on the existing profit models of self-media from the perspective of new institutional economics, using transaction costs, contracts, institutional change and other related theories, and give policy recommendations for the problems.

Changes of Temperature Field in Storms Under Influence of Cold Surge
Authors: Thu Huong Chu Thi , Dinh Linh Tran , Huy Dinh Tran Ngoc , Phong Nguyen Binh
Published: December 2022

This study goal is to explore changes of the temperature field during storms operating in the East Sea under the influence of cold air over time. Studies on wave–current interaction have focused mainly on tropical cyclones, while less attention has been paid to other weather systems (Gong et al, 2018). Strong winds in coastal areas can cause dramatic changes in water level and currents, which influence wave height and direction, thereby increasing hazardous conditions (Sun et al, 2018). Wave parameters in the outer region of the typhoon are more sensitive to the current but less sensitive to the water elevation than those in the inner region of the typhoon (Hsiao et al, 2020). The results show that the temperature field in the storm under the influence of cold air has an asymmetrical distribution around the center.
Strategic Power Europe: A Contradiction in Terms?
Authors: Havel Sean
Published: December 2022

As of 2021, the European Union (EU) is now a foundational part of Europe’s defense architecture, with programmes such as PESCO now enabling the EU to organise civil-military responses to crise and coordinate the defense-planning cycles of 25 European countries. This article asks why EU member states have opted to use the EU to enable their capabilities and manage ongoing security crises? In answering this question, the article uses a pluralistic reading, utilising realist and liberal-intergovernmentalist frameworks to assess complementary hypotheses for this cooperation. The second part assesses the state of the international system, concluding its increasing insecurity has prompted a collective awareness that a more strategic response to collective security is necessary. The third part evaluates the role of the political and economic balance of bargaining power between EU member states, assessing Germany, France, and Poland as case studies. The paper concludes briefly on the implications of this cooperation and the need for pluralistic readings of EU defense cooperation.
European Right-Wing Populist Parties’ Approach toward China: Between Anti-Globalization and Appeal for Diversified International Partnerships
Authors: Tu Dong , Zamecki Lukasz
Published: December 2022

The aim of this paper is to examine questions that have not yet been researched thoroughly: how are the positions of the RRPs on China shaping and changing, what causes such differing positions on China among these RPPs, and have there been any changes in their approach to China in the times of COVID-19? This paper aims to answer these questions by analyzing the policies toward China of said political parties (primarily, the Hungarian Fidesz, Italian Lega Nord, French Rassemblement National, but also parties such as the British UKIP, the PiS, Dutch PVV, and the German AfD). The paper underlines that RPPs’ policies on China are formulated basing on what they perceive the development of international politics can do “for the people”. Their attitudes depend mainly on their stance toward free-market globalization, their need for alternatives in relations with the US and the EU, and their axiological perception of China.

Depression not only due to Post COVID-19 Syndrome: Happiness Diary & Mental Health
Authors: Gottschalk R. , Al Trad A.
Published: December 2022

Research is always concerned with the topic of how to cure depressive symptoms or alleviate the symptoms. A central therapeutic goal in cognitive behavioral therapy is cognitive restructuring. At the behavioral level, a particular therapeutic intervention is often used to promote a more positive mindset: a positive effect on the psyche of keeping a happiness diary has already been demonstrated. The results of this work are consistent with others reported in the literature, which is why such studies should also be conducted on clinical groups. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the long-term keeping of the happiness diary and what effect this has on the depressive course symptomatology. Subjects were asked at catamnesis (6 months after the end of therapy) whether they still kept their diary regularly and were then instructed to complete the BDI-II again and return it to the practice. These scores were compared to the initial diagnostic from the patient's therapy period (pre- and post-measure-ment) and analyzed. Subjects who had not continued the happiness diary in the next 6 months after the end of therapy achieved a higher score in the BDI-II compared to the subjects who had continued the happiness diary regularly. The results of this work allow conclusions to be drawn about the importance of relapse prevention in psychotherapy.

The postcovid era augmented with armed conflict in Eastern Europe brings new waves of social pathology, including postcovid syndrome, where the commonest signs are depression, anxiosity‚ followed by alcohol, tobacco, or other substance use. Two cohorts of clients of social work: one among migrants and refugees (98 clients); 11 homeless have been studied on development of both symptomes related to stress (post trauma stress syndrome after armed conflict, and chronic stress of homelesness and isolation). Only one case of HIV and HepC in both groups have been recorded, both on ARV or HCV treatment. Tobacco use has been increased in the group of posttrauma stress syndrome related to Group I (armed conflict refugees), but alcohol or substance use were sporadic and exceptional both before and after admission in the 3m follow up.
Retail Pharmacies are not just any Businesses - The lack of Public Discussion about the Death of Pharmacies (Letter to the Editor)
Authors: Oehlmann R.
Published: December 2022

Retail pharmacies have been declining in regard to physical stores as well as value as perceived by the society. Even in the face of their declination there are little amendments or implementations made to avert this, most have turned out to be ineffectual to the occurrence. Alongside primary healthcare facilities such as hospitals, pharmacies can offer a decentralized healthcare system whereby they can divert some of the healthcare services and assist in the development of an effectual healthcare system. To create an effectual healthcare system former policies have to be altered and new ones which promote quality and affordable healthcare.
Placenta: an organ with high energy requirements
Authors: Shestakova Maia A. , Vishnyakova Polina A. , Fatkhudinov Timur Kh.
Published: December 2022

Placenta is a unique organ, without which the very phenomenon of human pregnancy is impossible. Semiallogeneous nature, localization of the placenta, complex and heterogeneous cellular composition determines its complex and multifaceted role in the course of physiological pregnancy, indicates the importance of studying this organ in a number of reproductive pathologies. The purpose of this review was to analyze the literature sources illustrating the importance of energydependent processes in placental metabolism and to determine the molecular basis of placental energy conversion. Publications of foreign and Russian authors from PubMed database and scientific electronic library eLIBRARY.ru were used when writing the review. The review highlights the main functions of the placenta: transport and synthetic functions in terms of their place in the structure of energy expenditure of the organ. The systems by which the transport of ions and gases from maternal blood through the placental barrier is performed, are considered. The role of the placenta in the synthesis of steroid hormones and glucocorticoids is detailed. The main bioenergetic systems are also considered: placental glucose metabolism, the functional activity of mitochondria and the creatine kinase system of the placenta. These data allow us to put the placenta on a par with other organs with high energy requirements (brain, transverse striated skeletal muscles, heart, kidneys, liver), which are most susceptible to metabolic disorders. Maintaining a balance between expenditure and synthesis of macroergic compounds in the placenta is critical for an adequate course of physiological pregnancy, and imbalances can lead to such pathologies as fetal retardation syndrome or preeclampsia. Further study of placental energy supply systems seems important for understanding the mechanisms of intrauterine development disorders and developing their pathogenetic treatment.
Polycystic ovary syndrome and obesity: a modern paradigm

Published: December 2022

Polycystic ovary syndrome is a heterogeneous endocrine disease that affects women of childbearing age. The pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome has not been fully studied to date, its paradigm considers the genetic determinism of the manifestation of hormonal and metabolic disorders, which are considered to be criteria for the verification of the disease (hyperandrogenism, oligo/anovulation and/or polycystic ovarian transformation during ultrasound examination (ultrasound). This review discusses the main ways of interaction between hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance and obesity and their role in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome, as well as possible methods of treatment for this category of patients. The review analyzes the role of hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance in the implementation of the genetic scenario of polycystic ovary syndrome and finds out the reasons why women with polycystic ovary syndrome often demonstrate the presence of a «metabolic trio» - hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is noted that obesity is not included in the criteria for the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome, but epidemiological data confirm the existence of a relationship between these diseases. Obesity, especially visceral, which is often found in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, enhances and worsens metabolic and reproductive outcomes with polycystic ovary syndrome, as well as increases insulin resistance and compensatory hyperinsulinemia, which, in turn, stimulates adipogenesis and suppresses lipolysis. Obesity increases the sensitivity of tech cells to luteinizing hormone stimulation and enhances functional hyperandrogenism of the ovaries, increasing the production of androgens by the ovaries. Excess body weight is associated with a large number of inflammatory adipokines, which, in turn, contribute to the growth of insulin resistance and adipogenesis. Obesity and insulin resistance exacerbate the symptoms of hyperandrogenism, forming a vicious circle that contributes to the development of polycystic ovary syndrome. These data allow us to conclude that bariatric surgery can become an alternative to drugs (metformin, thiazolidinedione analogs of glucagon-like peptide-1), which has shown positive results in the treatment of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome and obesity.
Рrediction of infertility in patients with uterine leiomyoma
Authors: Semyatov Said M. , Leffad Lemin M.
Published: December 2022

Infertility is an important socio-economic problem due to the fact that planned childbearing occurs much later than three decades ago. In recent years, more attention has been paid to the role of uterine leiomyoma in the development of infertility. Uterine leiomyoma is a benign monoclonal, well-demarcated encapsulated tumor originating from the smooth muscle cells of the cervix or body of the uterus. Uterine leiomyoma is the most common uterine tumor in the reproductive age group, affecting 20-50 % of women. With conceptual changes in marriage and childbearing, the number of women over 35 with leiomyoma who want to have children has also increased significantly. The need to treat submucosal fibroids is widely recognized, but fibroids of other locations and sizes remain a clinical mystery. The purpose of the literature review was to determine the role of uterine fibroids in predicting infertility. It has been established that the incidence of uterine leiomyoma in women of reproductive age is on average about 40 %, infertility associated with this pathology occurs in 5-10 % of women. In 10 % of cases of infertility, uterine leiomyoma is the only established cause of infertility. Uterine leiomyoma is common among women of reproductive age, and as women continue to delay childbearing, an increasing number of patients will require fertility-preserving treatment options. Leiomyoma affects not only fertility but also obstetric outcomes. Women with intramural fibroids without cavity deformity have a 21 % reduction in live birth rates after in vitro fertilization compared with controls without fibroids. Despite advances in fundamental understanding of the biology of leiomyomas, the role of different fibroid variants remains a matter of discussion. The question of the negative impact of submucosal nodes on infertility today is not in doubt, and the effect of subserous and intramural nodes requires further study.
Dental implants osseointegration in patients with osteoporosis
Authors: Hammouri Marina H. , Salekh Karina M.
Published: December 2022

The successful use of surgical and medical methods of jaw bone tissue restoration has been convincingly confirmed in clinical practice. At the same time, technologies are being developed to improve the osseointegration of dental implants in patients with osteoporosis. The use of various implant coatings, as well as systemic therapy, demonstrate the emergence of new directions in the treatment of patients with partial or complete secondary edentulism with concomitant osteoporosis. This trend is relevant in modern medicine . Information was obtained from the PubMed database, using the keywords «osteoporosis» and «osseointegration» and «dental implantation» and «zoledronic acid» from 2016 to 2022. Articles were selected based on experimental work. Numerous studies have shown that bone tissue is an effective indicator of osteoporotic changes. The main changes in bone tissue in osteoporosis are emphasized - a decrease in bone volume, deterioration of the microarchitecture of the trabecular bone and processes that prevent osseointegration - loss of bone mass, a significant decrease in the percentage of contact in the implant-bone complex. Methods of dealing with the negative impact on the operation of dental implantation have been identified. In a review of studies on the systemic administration of drugs based on bisphosphonates, an increase in the osseointegration of dental implants was revealed, the systemic administration of zoledronic acid preparations significantly increased the formation of new bone, which in turn contributed to the elimination of such a negative effect of osteoporosis as bone resorption. In addition to the systemic administration of bisphosphonates, experimental studies describe the topical application of bisphosphonates in the form of various implant coatings. Topical application of bisphosphonates also contributed to increased osseointegration. Microstructured coated implants showed less marginal bone loss compared to uncoated implants. Conclusion. The use of dental implants with modified macro- and microrelief, as well as systemic drug therapy, remains the main direction of scientific research that contributes to the optimization of osseointegration of dental implants.
Observational Study to Find Correlation Between Dhatu Sarata (Tissue Excellence) And Alpha-Fit Fitness Test Battery
Authors: P. Phule Dr. Sharayu , B. Patil Dr. Ganesh , S. Ghate Dr. Umesh
Published: December 2022

Ayurveda, the ancient system of medicine, designates a unique concept, Dhatu sarata, that categorizes the population into three subgroups Sarva Sara (optimal status of tissue health), Asara (suboptimal quality of tissue health), and Madhya Sara (average level of tissue health) as per health status of the tissue. Ayurved classic believes that the examination of tissue health is one of the best criteria to assess an individual's strength status of an individual irrespective of the person's physique. Acharya Charaka explained the relationship between physical fitness and Dhatu sarata in the eighth chapter of Vimansthan in Charaksamhita. Therefore, validating this association using contemporary parameters and scientific instruments is necessary. The present study aimed to assess physical fitness with a valid parameter and find its association with Dhatu sarata, a subjective parameter. In this era, quantitative data is needed to understand ancient subjective characteristic features. Hence this topic was selected for research. Institutional Ethics Committee permission was obtained, and normal healthy individuals aged 22 to 35 were enrolled in the study. Their Dhatu sarata (tissue excellence) evaluation was done using a standardized, validated questionnaire and software (Ayusoft C-DAC). The reliable, valid, and field-based set of ALPHA-FIT fitness test batteries assessed their health-related physical fitness. Pearson's correlation coefficient(r) was calculated to study the association between Dhatu sarata(tissue excellence) and fitness factors. It was observed that in the study population (n=50), statistical analysis (Pearson’s correlation test) showed a significant positive correlation between the excellence of Mamsa, Asthi, Majja, Shukra, Rasa Dhatu and health-related physical fitness while no significant correlation between health-related physical fitness and excellence of Meda and Rakta Dhatu. Results of the study suggest that excellence of tissue is positively associated with health-related physical fitness.
Nuevo registro norte de Liolaemus pseudolemniscatus (Squamata: Liolaemidae. Lamborot & Ortiz, 1990): Modelo de su distribución y selección de hábitat
Authors: Chávez-Villavicencio César
Published: December 2022

Liolaemus pseudolemniscatus es una especie endémica de Chile, se distribuye desde el Panul en la región de Coquimbo (norte), hasta Cerro Provincia en la región Metropolitana (sur), entre 25 y 2100 msnm. Habita terrenos abiertos con vegetación arbustiva densa, espinosa y rocas pequeñas. Aunque existen tres propuestas de distribución geográfica, el descubrimiento de un nuevo sitio de presencia más allá de las propuestas de distribución conocidas, llevó a plantear como objetivos, elaborar un modelo predictivo de su distribución geográfica y determinar el rol de las variables ambientales que determinan su presencia en Chile. El modelo de distribución se elaboró con el programa MaxEnt y el rol de las variables ambientales se analizó con la función de probabilidad de selección de recursos. La distribución potencial presentó una superficie de 31 462 km2, desde cero hasta 2500 msnm y estuvo influenciada por la precipitación del trimestre más cálido. Se determinó que la probabilidad de presencia se incrementó débilmente con la altitud de la vegetación, mientras que la detección disminuyó con el incremento de la nubosidad. Los resultados se relacionan con las conductas de escape de los depredadores y la termorregulación.
Book Review: Digital Cultures, Lived Stories and Virtual Reality by Thomas Maschio, Anthropology and Business Series. London and New York: Routledge
Authors: Fife Wayne
Published: December 2022

The author of this book, Thomas Maschio, has lived two anthropological lives; an earlier one as an academic anthropologist and a later one as an anthropologist running a company (Maschio Consulting) that specializes in the use of ethnographic research methods to help solve business problems and provide new kinds of information for business decisions. This combined background shows, as this volume is full of insights that translate both to the rough and tumble world of business practices and the more abstract world of academic understandings. This is to say that it offers readers insights into common social practices, such as the use of personal devices (for instance, smart phones) or the production of contemporary journalism, that can be utilized by both business practitioners and university-based researchers to think more about the ever-increasing role that digital technology is playing in our lives. As such, I could see this volume being used as a standard textbook in different kinds of social science or business courses, as well as being of interest to those who are simply curious about the intersection between business and anthropology or who want to gain a greater understanding of contemporary digital practices.
Religious Interpretation, Well Being, and Formation of Religious Attitudes On Covid-19 Survivors
Authors: Setiawan Mohamad Nur Kholis , Muttaqin Ahmad
Published: December 2022

This article explains the attitude of social groups who have been declared exposed to the Covid-19 virus and are undergoing isolation facilitated by the government for 6-10 days until they are declared cured. Because they undergo quarantine with strict controls, they leave their main obligations as family breadwinners or professional workers. In a situation that is completely restricted, they have no alternative but to accept and undergo all procedures and stages of quarantine until they are completed. The article data comes from several Covid-19 patients participating in quarantine in Banyumas district in February 2022. Using a sociological approach and religious interpretation, the attitude of accepting the quarantine situation points to two things, first, religion is present in people who experience powerlessness as a result of the dysfunction of science and technology. Second, in this situation of powerlessness, religion is present to offer solutions that are beyond reality or transcendental. From these two situations, the social groups participating in the Covid-19 quarantine gave rise to religious attitudes which in the perspective of religious interpretation are understood as the practice of the teachings of gratitude, patience, trustworthiness, prayer, wisdom, and ihtiyar.

Published: December 2022

This article is to trace the problem of the right of a citizen of different religions to practice the faith in an Islamic country. This issue is not a new issue since as early as the formation of the Islamic state of Madinah, communities of different religions have also already existed. Therefore, to understand the model of managing the affairs of non -Muslim religious beliefs through the historical lens of the Prophet Muḥammad Rasūlullah (PBUH)) has become important for the ummah. The present article, using a descriptive and analytical approach and drawing upon Islamic sources, i.e. the Holy Qur’ān, the Prophetic Traditions and selected opinion of Muslim scholars to explores the conceptual framework that Muslim jurists develop their ruling with regard to issue encounter Muslim and non-Muslims affairs in the light of Fiqh al-Siyār. As a result, this study shows that the combination of the guidance of Wahy and the contract signed by the Prophet Rasūlullah (PBUH) and Ṣaḥabah with non -Muslims, especially contract of Syurūṭ ‘Umariyyah gave inspiration for jurist to provide a social conduct of religious rights for non -Muslims.

The authors, who are considered to be “titans” in the field of democracy and Islam, started the book by saying “Many western observers were shocked when Arabs began open rebellions against their governments in December 2010” and this seem to point out not only the unpredictability of the uprisings, but also to the inaccuracy behind several of the most accepted assumptions about politics and governance in the Arab world. The chapters of the book discuss the experiences of political transition in general and how democratisation works in particular through the examples of seven different countries, namely Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Indonesia, Senegal, Tunisia and Egypt.
Keintelektualan Masyarakat Johor: Tradisi Persuratan Merentas Zaman
Authors: Nordin Mardiana
Published: December 2022

The sultanate of Johor emerged as a maritime trade civilization, centred along the Johor River around the 16th and 17th century CE. Its administrative centre shifted to the Riau-Lingga islands in the next century, and returned to the mainland state of Johor in the late 19th century. Between the 16th and 18th centuries, the sultanate of Johor emerged as a great Malay empire, a respected political entity and centre of international trade. However, these aspects should be seen as moving in line with the intellectual apogee of the Johor people. Therefore, the objective of this article is to prove that throughout the 16th and 18th centuries, the sultanate of Johor also became a centre of development of literature, language and culture. Many intellectuals emerged in Johor. The second objective is to discuss the multi-genre literary scene in Johor. Beginning with the two great Malay works, Sulalatus Salatin by Tun Sri Lanang and the Hikayat Hang Tuah, the Johor intelligentsia produced various literary works (history, literature, language, religion, statecraft, fiction, and so on) in the following centuries. Respected members of the intelligentsia produced greatly intellectual works, such as Raja Haji Ahmad, Raja Ali Haji, Raja Khalid Hitam, Raja Ali Kelana, Muhammad Ibrahim Munshi, Muhammad Salleh Perang, Muhammad Said Sulaiman and many others. This paper focuses on writtings and intellectuality in fields of history, literature and language. This study uses the qualitative method in history, especially focusing on library research. This study proves that Johor society is highly prolific in the flowering of literary and intellectual activities. This situation was also in line with the development of printing and associational activities, thus providing the intellectuality of Johor throughout time.
Perkembangan Konservatisme di Türkiye: Pengajaran Buat Kelestarian Islam di Malaysia
Authors: Ibrahim Muhammad Khalis , Mohd Nor Mohd Roslan
Published: December 2022

Conservatism is a political philosophy that tends to preserve traditions and reject drastic change. Türkiye has a long experience of political conservatism due to the Kemalists’ radical secularization. The Justice and Development Party (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi-AK PARTİ) is an entity that recently champions political conservatism in Türkiye. Despite having many differences, Türkiye and Malaysia share similarities as progressive, modern, and democratic Muslim countries. This paper aims to discuss AK PARTİ’s political conservatism and analyze to what extent it can be made as an example for the sustainability of Islam in Malaysia. To fulfill this objective, primary and secondary sources related to AK PARTİ’s conservatism discourse have been referred to be used as the basis of analysis of lessons that can be taken for the sustainability of Islam in Malaysia. The comparative analysis method has also been used to compare the context of Türkiye and Malaysia to understand the limitations of lessons that Malaysia can learn based on the experience of conservatism in Türkiye. As a party with a conservative democratic ideology, AK PARTİ manages to uphold political conservatism within the context of modern democracy. This success results from a synthesis between the demands of conservatism and democracy. The political conservatism in Türkiye can be made as an example for Malaysia, especially in preserving Islam as the federal religion, the existence of the king institution, the Malay-Muslim identity, and the true essence of Islam as a societal-unifying force. This paper argues that in the Malaysia context, conservatism is an important political philosophy to be upheld in order to preserve the harmony and stability of the plural society.

The article examines a diplomatic mission of Alberto Vimina to Russia in the 17th century. In 1655, Alberto Vimina (1603–1667) visited Russia representing the interests of Venetian Republic, which was looking for an ally in Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich in the fight against the Ottoman Empire at a time when Russian-Polish war was going on. In anticipation of the audience, Vimina spent half a year in Russia, describing his stay in various Russian cities and negotiations he held in letters to the ambassador of Venetian Republic in Vienna, Giovan Battista Nani. Vimina was received in Russia by the local authorities coordinated by Posolskij Prikaz with personal control of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich. The mission of Vimina undertaken on his initiative did not achieve the main goal and was reported in different ways in Russian and Italian sources. The structure of text is determined by communicative aim, and as a result it’s a description of the reality that should appear before the addressee of report. At the same time, it reflects specifics of the diplomatic service in Russia and in Venetian Republic and the work of local authorities of Russia in difficult historical conditions.
Schwank on “One Moscow Patriarch”
Authors:   Universitat Leipzig, Belkind Alexandra Yu. , Lifshits Alexander L.
Published: December 2022

The article examines Schwank on “one Moscow patriarch.” Among the numerous pieces of literature printed on the territory of German states in the 17th century, one can still find unknown sources on the history of Russian-European relations. The vocal work, composed by the Baroque music theoretician, composer and writer Georg Daniel Speer (1636–1707), is one of them. It has all the features of the earlier Fastnachtsspiel, or fabliau set to music with a considerable number of immodest details. Quiproquo in the bedroom is a traditional plot of these stories known throughout Europe, but in this case, “one Moscow patriarch” acts as the main character of opus. However, nothing will distinguish him from a German priest or a French abbot. On the contrary, music that accompanies the vocal piece is called Moscow Dance and probably reflects the composer’s ideas about secular music of Muscovy state. All this gives evidence to the fact that by the last quarter of the 17th century, Muscovy in ordinary consciousness of Europeans was turning from an exotic and fabulous territory into a country in the neighborhood, about which familiar jokes are told.

O presente artigo decorre de pesquisa desenvolvida no Mestrado cujo escopo visa compreender como ocorre o processo de inclusão escolar, a partir da trajetória da primeira aluna com deficiência visual do Instituto Federal Sul-rio-grandense (IFSul), câmpus charqueadas. Para isso, adotou como procedimento metodológico o estudo de caso, valendo-se da triangulação de dados produzidos através da análise documental, entrevistas e questionários entre os anos de 2019 e 2020. Tal empreendimento ancora-se nas interlocuções dos referenciais sobre inclusão, em articulação com os estudos no campo da Educação Profissional e Tecnológica, permitindo problematizar a noção de inclusão, reconhecendo-a como uma construção histórica e social recente, na qual vêm se produzindo modos de pensar e viver em relação às pessoas com deficiência, em especial, a visual, conforme permitem depreender Almeida (2017), Batista (2018), Mianes (2016), França (2013), Silva (2019), entre outros. O estudo permite reconhecer, através da trajetória da própria jovem-estudante, sujeitos, concepções e práticas que perpassam o processo de inclusão escolar. Conclui-se que necessitam inserir em seu currículo formas de inclusão dos alunos a partir de sua cultura e formas de comunicação.

The study aims to examine the relationship between ownership structure and firm performance. We have analyzed the data of 113 firms with 565 observations from 2013 to 2017 using the fixed panel data estimation approach. A subsample analysis has been employed by dividing the data based on firm size, board size, and firm age to test the robustness of the analysis. Results indicate a positive impact of domestic promoters, foreign promoters, and institutional shareholders on firm performance, whereas non-institutional shareholders bear an inverse relationship with performance. It has implications for regulators and policymakers responsible for formulating ownership structure policies in light of ongoing regulatory reforms.
