Continental Frameworks for Mineral Resource Governance in Africa: Strategies for Enhanced Domestication
Authors: Jourdan Paul
Published: February 2025

Despite its impressive natural resources, Africa has failed to realize equitable resource-based industrialization, remaining imprisoned in the neo-colonial paradigm of supplying the world with low-value-added primary commodities and importing high-value-added products and services. In 2009, the African Union’s Africa Mining Vision (AMV) outlined a vision and path for member states to pursue equitable resource-based industrialization. The adoption and domestication of continental frameworks on mineral resource governance in Africa such as the African Mining Vision, the African Minerals Governance Framework, the Country Mining Vision Guidebook, the African Commodities Strategy, has been slow and requires additional effort.

This report presents a wide variety of strategies to accelerate the adoption and domestication of these frameworks, in order to realize the growth, development, industrialization and employment opportunities associated with mineral extraction.
Oikeuden rajoilla
Authors: Lindroos-Hovinheimo Susanna
Published: February 2025

Kirja käsittelee oikeusteorian peruskysymyksiä. Teoksessa pohditaan oikeudenmukaisuuden ongelmaa tarkastelemalla yhtäältä oikeuden suhdetta moraaliin, toisaalta oikeuden suhdetta politiikkaan sekä vallankäyttöön yleisemmin. Keskeiseksi kysymykseksi nousee oikeuden itsenäisyys. Oikeuden erottaminen politiikasta on oikeusvaltiossa välttämätöntä, sillä oikeusjärjestyksen tulee olla puolueeton ja sen tehtäviin kuuluu julkisen vallankäytön rajoittaminen. On kuitenkin vaikeaa tehdä selkeää erottelua oikeuden ja politiikan välillä. Mikä estää oikeutta muuttumasta pelkäksi vallankäytön välineeksi? Tämä kysymys on vaivannut oikeusfilosofeja jo kauan. Myös oikeuden ja moraalin yhteydet ovat hankalia hahmottaa. Onko oikeus jotain muuta kuin lakiin kirjoitettua moraalia? Missä kulkevat oikeuden rajat? Teoksessa pohditaan näitä oikeusteorian perustavanlaatuisia ongelmia kartoittamalla länsimaisen oikeusfilosofian klassista teoriaperinnettä. Oikeusfilosofista sisältöä havainnollistetaan erilaisin esimerkein ja oikeustapauksin, jotka auttavat lukijaa ymmärtämään oikeudenmukaisuuden monivivahteisia kysymyksiä useasta näkökulmasta. Teos on laadittu oppikirjaksi, joka johdattelee lukijaa aihepiiriin. Se ei edellytä aikaisempia tietoja oikeustieteestä.
Johdatus viestintäoikeuteen
Authors: Korpisaari Päivi
Published: February 2025

Viestintäoikeus on ulospäin avautuva oikeudenala. Sen piirissä sovelletaan puhtaasti viestintäoikeudellista normistoa sekä useiden ns. perinteisten oikeudenalojen normeja eri oikeudenalojen leikkauspisteissä viestintään tai joukkoviestintään liittyvissä tilanteissa. Viestintäoikeudelliset oikeuskysymykset liittyvät usein sanan- tai ilmaisuvapauteen oikeutena levittää tai vastaanottaa erilaisia tietoja, mielipiteitä tai muita viestejä. Kysymys voi olla esimerkiksi sananvapauden ja yksityiselämän suojan välisestä punninnasta tai laajemmasta sananvapauden käyttämistä koskevasta asiasta, kuten vaikkapa viestinnän moniarvoisuuden sekä viestinnän infrastruktuurin ja rakenteiden turvaamisesta.

Tämän kirjan tarkoituksena on luoda yleiskuva viestintäoikeudesta oikeudenalana sekä tulkita ja analysoida keskeistä viestintäoikeudellista normistoa. Aihepiireinä ovat sananvapaus ja yksityiselämän suoja perus- ja ihmisoikeuksina, keskeiset sananvapauden käyttämistä koskevat kriminalisoinnit, kuten yksityiselämää loukkaava tiedon levittäminen, kunnianloukkaus, kiihottaminen kansanryhmää vastaan, uskonrauhan rikkominen, viestintärauhan rikkominen ja identiteettivarkaus. Kirjassa käsitellään myös julkaistun viestin tai kuvan aiheuttamaa korvausvastuuta sekä työntekijän sananvapauden ja lojaliteettivelvollisuuden suhdetta. Lisäksi teoksessa tarkastellaan sananvapauslain säännöksiä esimerkiksi oikaisu- ja vastineoikeudesta sekä lähdesuojasta.

ДОВГОСТРОКОВІ РІВНОВАЖНІ ВЗАЄМОЗВ’ЯЗКИ МІЖ КРИПТОВАЛЮТАМИ ТА РИНКОМ ЕНЕРГОНОСІЇВ
Authors: ТРОЯН Кирило
Published: February 2025

У даному дослідженні аналізуються довгострокові рівноважні взаємозв’язки між цінами криптовалют та ф’ючерсами на енергоносії за допомогою коінтеграційного аналізу. На основі щоденних даних про ціни закриття торгів 401 криптовалют та 10 ф’ючерсних контрактів на енергоносії здійснено систематичну оцінку довгострокових взаємозв’язків між цими класами активів. Попередньо стаціонарність часових рядів перевірено за допомогою розширеного тесту Дікі-Фуллера, що забезпечило відбір лише рядів, інтегрованих першого порядку.
Було проведено серію парних коінтеграційних тестів, результати яких збережено у реляційній базі даних для подальшого аналізу. Крім того, застосовано коінтеграційний аналіз Йохансена — багатовимірний метод, здатний виявляти множинні коінтеграційні зв’язки. Під час аналізу динаміку цін активів змодельовано у вигляді моделі корекції помилок, а кількість коінтеграційних зв’язків визначено за допомогою декомпозиції за власними значеннями. Розраховано дві тестові статистики — статистику сліду та статистику максимального власного значення, які порівнювалися з критичними значеннями на рівні значущості 5%.
Результати свідчать про виявлення 1965 статистично значущих коінтегрованих пар, що становить 49% від загальної кількості досліджуваних пар. Зокрема, ф’ючерсні контракти на бензин RBOB демонстрували коінтеграційний зв’язок майже з усіма криптовалютними серіями (100%), тоді як ступінь коінтеграції серед категорій криптовалют варіювався наступним чином: метаверсійні токени — 100%, NFT/Gaming токени — 65,52%, стейблкоіни — 63,46%, утилітарні токени — 58,06% та платіжні токени — 55,45%.
Отримані результати надають емпіричні свідчення того, що, незважаючи на високу короткострокову волатильність, ціни криптовалют тісно пов’язані з динамікою енергетичних ринків. Варіації в ступені коінтеграції між категоріями криптовалют підкреслюють неоднорідність ринків цифрових активів. Таким чином, результати дослідження ставлять під сумнів загальноприйняте уявлення про криптовалюти як ізольовані спекулятивні інструменти та висвітлюють вплив фундаментальних економічних чинників, зокрема вартості енергоносіїв, на довгострокову динаміку цін.
Практичне значення результатів дослідження полягає у його внеску до розвитку методів управління ризиками, оптимізації розподілу активів та створення прогнозних моделей, що сприяє комплекснішому аналізу як цифрових, так і традиційних ринків активів.

У статті досліджено поняття фінансового менеджменту як ключового інструмента забезпечення ефективності міжнародних інвестиційних проєктів у контексті глобалізаційних процесів міжнародної економіки та фінансових ринків. Визначено, що глобалізація економіки призводить до зростання інтеграції національних ринків та активізації міжнародних потоків капіталу. З’ясовано, що фінансовий менеджмент має враховувати глобальні потоки прямих іноземних інвестицій, що є індикаторами економічної стабільності та структурних змін на світових ринках. Проаналізовано глобальні показники прибутковості прямих іноземних інвестицій, що є важливими для оцінки ефективності міжнародних інвестиційних проєктів. З’ясовано, що фінансовий менеджмент в Україні, як країні, що значною мірою залежить від зовнішніх інвестицій, потребує оптимізації для зменшення ризиків відпливу капіталу та підвищення інвестиційної привабливості.

МЕТАФОРА В АСПЕКТЕ РЕЧЕВОГО РАЗВИТИЯ ШКОЛЬНИКОВ 5-8 КЛАССОВ
Authors: Кенесова М.Б. , Демченко Л.Н.
Published: February 2025

В статье рассматриваются основные подходы к пониманию и раскрытию сущности такого художественного приема как метафора. В школьном учебнике понятие метафоры объясняется как употребление слов в переносном значении. Понятие «метафора» как скрытого сравнения приводится в учебнике 5 класса при изучении былины, учащимся предлагается найти метафору и объяснить ее значение, в учебнике 6 класса больше отводится внимания такой литературоведческой категории как сравнение. Проанализировав подходы к пониманию обучающимися особенности и назначения метафоры, можно сделать вывод об отсутствии более полной трактовки такой литературоведческой категории, которая охватывает значительный пласт в плане творческого освоения литературного произведения. Можем говорить, что метафора – одна из ключевых категорий, формирующих представление о структуре художественного образа, творческой индивидуальности писателя, его мышлении, эстетическом идеале и художественном мире. Более того, практическая работа по выявлению метафоры создает определенную сложность, поскольку смыкается с такими понятиями, как метанимия, синекдоха и собственно сравнение. Иносказание и проявление в тексте метафоры также порой создает для школьников сложность. Возникает вопрос: а что именно считать метафорой, поскольку метафора может выступать как лексическая единица, или же – как образный эквивалент первоначального значения слова, и когда метафора порождает образ. Такого рода вопросы и составили ряд задач, которые авторы статьи видят в поставке проблемы речевого развития школьников с точки зрения обращения к метафоре и ее проявлении в художественном тексте.

The Inter-Factor Zone: A Transitional Phase Between Push and Pull Factors in Post-1968 Migration from Czechoslovakia to Switzerland
Authors: Guthová Tereza , Kokaisl Petr , Guth Karel
Published: February 2025

This article introduces the concept of an inter-factor zone, a transitional phase of migration that extends beyond the traditional push and pull factor framework. By integrating the dynamics of uncertainty and the influence of contingent events, this study provides a novel perspective on migrant decision-making. Using the case of political emigration from Czechoslovakia to Switzerland following the 1968 Warsaw Pact invasion, this study examines how structural factors, institutional support, and unforeseen circumstances shaped migrants' choices during this transitional phase.

Data were collected using the biographical narrative technique and semi-structured interviews. Based on an analysis of 35 semi-structured interviews and historical documents, key factors influencing migrant decision-making were identified. The research revealed that a portion of political migrants from Czechoslovakia found themselves in the inter-factor zone, a transitional phase of the migration process in which push factors lose their immediate influence while pull factors have not yet fully developed. Migrants experiencing this phase were highly sensitive to minor stimuli such as information from refugee aid organizations, chance encounters, and asylum policies of respective states. These factors significantly influenced migrants' decisions on whether to stay, continue their journey, or return to their country of origin.

By conceptualizing migration as a non-linear, dynamic process, this study enhances the understanding of migration complexity, offers a new perspective on the significance of the inter-factor zone, and provides valuable insights for contemporary migration policies focused on refugee integration.

El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar la dieta de tres especies de bagres cavernícolas (Trichomycterus latistriatus, Trichomycterus rosablanca y Trichomycterus spectrum) en las cuencas del Caribe (Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta) y Magdalena (Andes), Colombia, mediante métodos clásicos para el análisis de contenidos estomacales: porcentaje volumétrico, frecuencia de aparición (%FA), índice de importancia alimentaria (IA) e índice estandarizado de Levin. Para determinar la estrategia de alimentación se utilizó el método gráfico de Costello, modificado por Amundsen et al. (1996). Se analizaron en total 44 estómagos, 22 correspondientes a T. latistriatus, trece a T. rosablanca, y nueve a T. spectrum. Las primeras dos especies procedían de tres cuevas con comunicación epigea, en el municipio de Curití, Santander (Andes) y la última de dos cuevas hipogeas sensu stricto de la Serranía de Bañaderos (Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta). Los resultados indican que T. latistriatus presenta el espectro trófico más amplio y aunque la mayoría de los ítems fueron secundarios según su %FA, Chironomidae, Ostracoda, Trichoptera y Copepoda son los que aportan mayoritariamente la dieta de esta especie. Los grupos de Coleoptera, Chironomidae y Trichoptera fueron las presas principales en T. rosablanca. En T. spectrum ningún ítem fue representativo a nivel poblacional. Además, se resalta el consumo de carroña y la baja depredación de Diptera en esta última especie. Lo anterior sugiere que las tres especies son entomófagas-oportunistas y generalistas.

This study aims to analyze the impact of stock price indices and stock trading volume on stock returns in the ASEAN stock exchanges, taken from a case study during the COVID-19 pandemic from 2019 to 2021. The research data was obtained from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), Bursa Malaysia (KLSE), and Singapore Exchange (SGX) through Bloomberg, Yahoo Finance, and web crawler applications. The sample used in the study came from 1,848 daily transactions from these three exchanges. The research data was processed and analyzed using SPSS version 25, and the method used was Ordinary Least Square (OLS). The results of this study indicate that there are differences in outcomes caused by stock price indices and stock trading volume on stock returns. Stock price indices have a significant negative effect on stock returns, while stock trading volume has a significant positive effect on stock returns.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of green accounting, financial performance, and firm size to determine the sustainability of manufacturing companies by paying attention to and maintaining the environment and public trust. This research uses Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) as a proxy for green accounting, financial performance which is proxied by Return On Assets (ROA), Return On Equity (ROE), and Net Profit Margin (NPM), and firm size which is proxied by logarithms. from company size to Financial Sustainability which is proxied by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) in manufacturing companies listed on IDX. This research uses samples taken using a purposive sampling method and obtained 46 companies as samples and multiple linear regression analysis tools with data processing using SPSS version 20. The results of this research show that ROE has a positive and significant effect on financial sustainability, ESG and ROA have a significant negative effect on financial sustainability. Meanwhile, NPM and firm size have no influence on financial sustainability. Financial resilience is simultaneously influenced by ESG, ROA, ROE, NPM, and firm size when combined together.

The end of boom-and-bust? Observed and projected declines in European beech masting

Reproduction is vital for forest resilience to climate change, as tree populations depend on adequate seed production to recover from disturbances and migrate to more suitable sites. Neglecting reproduction in projections of habitat suitability and range shifts risks overestimating forest resilience to climate change. For many tree species, including European beech (Fagus sylvatica), viable seed production depends on year-to-year variability in seed output (CVp), known as masting. Analysing data from 328 sites (average record length: 32.7 years), we find that rising summer temperatures in Central Europe are associated with declines in masting. Using the identified relationship between masting and summer temperatures, we project changes in masting across the species range under contemporary and future climates. The risk of masting decline is predicted to be widespread across the species' range, due to ubiquitous summer warming, but the risk is highest in the central belt of the distribution range (~40\% decline in CVp). Masting disruption is projected to occur across all populations under future climate scenarios. To mitigate the impacts of disruptions in masting patterns, it is essential to monitor recruitment in these high-risk zones while testing forest management strategies that may mitigate the effects of masting decline. With masting crucial for regeneration, seed consumer population dynamics, and behaviour, its disruption under climate change could have far-reaching ecological impacts.

The extent to which species might be able to evolutionarily respond to rapid environmental change relies strongly on their genetic diversity. Accurate knowledge of both patterns of evolution and genetic variation across the species range is important for determining appropriate conservation and management strategies. The Arctic is the fastest-warming region on the planet, with the rest of the world expected to reach temperature increases currently experienced in the Arctic by the turn of the century. Here, we review and synthesize research on evolutionary processes in polar bears. Polar bears are perhaps the best-studied species living at the forefront of climate-mediated habitat change, so patterns of evolutionary change in this species should be instructive for understanding the consequences of warming that are expected to occur elsewhere in the near future. Global warming has led to significant sea ice loss that has altered patterns of gene flow across the Arctic and contributed to declines in genetic variation in some, but not all, polar bear populations. Natural selection due to warming may be driving the evolution of smaller body sizes in polar bears. However, evidence of adaptive change remains limited, despite considerable behavioural plasticity in the species in response to changing sea ice conditions. Following our review, we suggest ways that identifying the effects of warming on evolution and genetic variation in polar bears could improve strategies for locally supported conservation and management decisions. Our results point to variable responses to warming that we can expect to occur across different genetically distinct populations in the same species and the general complexity of predicting the consequences of warming for wide-ranging species.

Forest disturbances are a natural ecological process, but climate and land-use change are altering disturbance regimes at an unprecedented rate, posing significant threats to biological communities and species of concern. Our aim was to develop an automated habitat monitoring system for the Southern Sierra Nevada Distinct Population Segment of fisher (Pekania pennanti) in California, USA to investigate long-term habitat trends and the effects of a recent megadrought and numerous megafires on fisher habitat. We used detections of female fishers (n=330) from a standardized monitoring program to develop a dynamic species distribution model using the random forest algorithm in the Google Earth Engine environment. We found that female fisher habitat remained relatively stable from 1985–2011 but declined by nearly half (48%) between 2012 and 2022, corresponding with a period of widespread forest mortality from drought and wildfire. The majority of fisher habitat loss occurred within wildfire perimeters (65%), where declines in habitat quality were associated with moderate- and high-severity fire. Female fisher habitat was more likely to burn at moderate- and high-severity than was expected by chance. Our findings emphasize the urgent conservation needs of this distinct population segment of fishers, highlighting the threat posed by novel disturbance regimes. Our results demonstrate the importance of monitoring for understanding species status, as the status of fisher habitat across the entire southern Sierra Nevada range following recent disturbances was not known. More broadly, our implementation of a cloud-based automated habitat monitoring system shows the necessity of up-to-date habitat information to apply conservation measures in rapidly changing environments and the potential for using habitat monitoring systems to investigate ecological questions of basic and applied relevance (e.g., wildfire-habitat relationships).
