Rodno uvjetovano nasilje i problem logičke “emancipacije” pravnih narativa kroz stereotipe u praksi i zakonskoj regulaciji
Authors: Profaca Maja
Published: January 2024

Kazneno je pravo područje gdje se sustav najizravnije susreće s pojedincem ne samo s aspekta optuženih već i s aspekta žrtve. Kako je cijeli proces usmjeren više na počinitelje nego na žrtve, potrebe i iskustvo žrtve mogu pritom ostati u drugom planu, a stereotipi i predrasude nezamijećeni. Tema je ovog članka stoga važnost kritički osviještenih narativa u pravosuđu s primjerom iz sudske prakse, ali i pravne norme, pri čemu se naglašava važnost edukacije i logičke argumentacije nasuprot kulturno uvjerljivim narativima u slučaju rodno uvjetovanog nasilja. Osobitu važnost ovdje valja dati analizi stereotipa i načina na koji suspendiraju kritičnost i logiku razmišljanja, stvarajući privid uvjerljivih zaključaka.

Authors: Kosar Aylin , Turkoz Mehmet
Published: January 2024

The COVID-19 disrupted the daily life of individuals within the United States and around the world when government restrictions were put into place. During the pandemic restrictions, social unrest took place after the death of George Floyd. Our objective is to study the crime rate during the pandemic and social unrest that took place after the death of George Floyd. We used data from four cities that were heavily affected with the pandemic and social unrest: Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia. Holt-Winters and SARIMA models were used to see if there was any change of crime during the pandemic and social unrest in addition to before and after the social unrest. Los Angeles had the lowest crime frequency out of the four cities while Philadelphia had the highest. All Holt-Winters models and SARIMA models showed around January 2020, during when the first case of COVID-19 occurred, crime was the same for all four cities except for Philadelphia where crime had dropped for a particular time until it increased again. There was no clear evidence to suggest that crime was affected during the COVID-19 pandemic and the social unrest during the protests.

Os sentidos do sertão: lugar e espaço na ficção de João Guimarães Rosa e Maria Valéria Rezende
Authors: Luiz Márcia Michele Justiniano , Pelinser André Tessaro
Published: January 2024

Este artigo objetiva analisar comparativamente os romances Grande sertão: veredas (1956 [2019]), de João Guimarães Rosa, e Outros cantos (2016), de Maria Valéria Rezende, com foco na representação do espaço regional. Inicialmente, discutem-se a vinculação dos textos ao regionalismo literário e a percepção dos escritores a respeito do tema, analisando os pontos de vista tornados públicos por Guimarães Rosa, entrevistado por Günter Lorenz, e Valéria Rezende, entrevistada pela Revista Crioula. Em seguida, examina-se como, nas duas obras, o sertão assume função estruturante à medida que afeta a subjetividade dos personagens e é constituído pela percepção delas. Argumenta-se que, nesse processo, o sertão deixa de ser lugar físico e se torna espaço praticado, conforme Michel de Certeau, ou paisagem, conforme Michel Collot. Conclui-se que as duas obras extraem sua força a partir do trabalho com esse espaço seminal para a literatura brasileira e assim contribuem para a renovação da tradição regionalista na contemporaneidade.

From Depths to Discoveries: Unraveling the Potential of Marine Biotechnology
Authors: Mehboob Riffat
Published: January 2024

With the oceans covering over 70% of our world, there is a lot of unrealized potential there. There is a wealth of marine life in these depths that presents a variety of opportunities for biotechnology. The most recent developments in marine biotechnology are helping us discover the mysteries of nature and are revolutionizing the fields of industry, sustainability, and healthcare to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Deep sea exploration has revealed a secret world full of many life forms, each of which may contain one or more special bioactive chemicals. Microalgae such as Chlorella and Spirulina offer a rich repository of bioactive compounds, from anti-inflammatory agents to proteins, enriching pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and nutritional supplements. Actinobacteria, notably Streptomyces, contribute significantly to antibiotic compounds critical in combating infections [1]. Marine-based food products are enhanced by fatty acids from marine sources, especially omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are found in fish and algae and provide special health benefits not available in land-based sources. Furthermore, because of their extraordinary qualities and capacity to withstand harsh environments, enzymes derived from marine creatures are indispensable in the food processing industry. While corals, sponges, and invertebrates boast bioactive substances, their practical use in industry and health care faces challenges due to sustainability concerns [2]. Although accessing deep waters can be challenging, innovative technology such as remotely operated vehicles, facilitates the collecting of samples. The complexity of analyzing and categorizing marine bacteria affects the development of new drugs. Weekly, thousands of possible bioactive compounds are tested using high-throughput approaches to overcome the limitations of traditional screening. Novel strategies that combine bioinformatics and enhanced screening work well to identify bioactive compounds obtained from marine sources. Drug development appears to be promising as genomics and metagenomics reveal genetic capacities and find bioactive components from previously uncultivable microbes [3]. The fusion of biology, technology, and the boundless oceans sparks unparalleled opportunities. It urges collaboration among researchers, policymakers, and industries to explore the sea's potential responsibly. Exploring the ocean's depths reveals scientific marvels but also provides the answer to a healthier and more sustainable future for coming generations.

Эчмиадзина, сформированная в условиях общего кризиса, характерного для послевоенного периода, должна была быть реорганизована, чтобы реабилитировать гонимую и дискредитированную церковь и священников.

Святой Престол Киликии – Армянский Католикосат Великого Дома Киликийского играл важную роль в жизни армянской общины ОАЭ. Корни успешности армянской общины ОАЭ кроются в том, что опыт армян Диаспоры по сохранению армянской идентичности и формированию национальных структур способствовал выживанию и становлению общины. Однако следует отметить также усилия Святого Престола Киликии, направленные на поддержку и содействие общине, что выражалось в создании армянских епархий: в 1992 г. в регионе Кувейта и стран Персидского залива были сформированы армянские епархии, а спустя 10 лет, начиная с 2013 года, в ОАЭ действует Армянская епархия ОАЭ и Катара.

В коллекции карт Армянского музея Америки хранится редкая карта 1513 года, которая является одним из самых ранних образцов, отражающих геополитическую картину данного исторического периода и составленных на основе новых нучных данных и птолемеевских карт. Следует отметить, что в историографии картографии северный и южный континент Нового Света редко изображались вместe, помимо этого название страны Бразилии было приведено в форме Paria seu possilia. Карта представляет особую ценность с точки зрения историко-географического воспри-ятия изображения Армении на картах XVI века. Еще в XVI–XVII веках ряд европейских картографов обозначили Армению в ее естественно-исторической среде, на территории между Черным и Каспийским морями, к востоку от Средиземного моря. Подобный подход был обусловлен не только древней, в частности птолемеевской, традицией составления географических карт, но и тем, что на оккупированной тюрками родине армян последние по-прежнему составляли большинство. Карта является важным источником для последующих эпох, особенно в XIX и XX вв., в освещении вопроса фальсификации названия западной части Армении, обозначенной как Восточная Анатолия.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisa bagaimana tradisi kondangan pernikahan sebagai akad hutang di masyarakat Jawa ditinjau dengan perspektif historis-sosiologis, serta menemukan munculnya tradisi kondangan sebagai akad hutang. Persoalan yang diangakat adalah bagaimana tradisi kondangan di masyarakat dan bagaimana pergeseran maknanya menjadi hutang secara historis dan keberadaannya di masyarakat adakah sanksi hukum atau sosialnya. Jenis penelitian ini merupakan field research dengan sifatnya kualitatif. Data yang diambil menggunakan hasil wawancara, dan juga observasi. Selain itu kajian pustaka diambil sebagai data pendukung teori dan konseptual dari variabel penelitian. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah historis sosiologis sebagai analisa tradisi tersebut yang di gali dari segi sejarah dan keberadaannya dalam mayarakat, yang digali dari empat kabupaten di Jawa Tengah. Tehnis analisis datanya menggunakan analisis deskriptif dengan menjabarkan gambaran lapangan yang ditemukan dari penelitian ini. Adapun hasil yang didapatkan adalah bahwa dari empat kabupaten Tegal, Brebes, Banyumas dan Purbalingga hampir 50 % dari responden menyatakan adanya praktik tradisi kondangan dan dilakukan sejak lama oleh masyarakat. Secara umum tehnis pelaksanaanya sama, perbedaan hanya terletak pada status sosial dalam pencatatan hutang dalam kondangan tersebut. Sejatinya tradisi tersebut berlandas pada asas tolong menolong namun bergeser menjadi akad hutang yang sudah diakui dan dipraktikkan oleh sebagian besar masyarakat. Secara sosiologis praktik tradisi ini tidak adanya perlawanan ataupun perseteruan antar masyarakat, namun sebagian menyayangkan karena menjadi nilai kapitalis. Perubahan makna dan nilai tradisi tersebut tidak disadari asal mula munculnya namun seiring berjalan masa dan status sosial serta modernitas menghasilkan hal tersebut. Akan tetapi sanksi hukum tidak ada dasar maupun implementasinya dimasyarakat, hanya saja secara sosial adanya gunjingan dan seolah aib jika ada pelanggaran masyarakat yang tidak membayar hutang dalam kondangan pernikahan tersebut.

Responding to instability in Iraq’s Sinjar district
Authors: Saleem Zmkan , Mansour Renad
Published: January 2024

Instability in the tiny Iraqi district of Sinjar, on the border with Syria and Türkiye, continues to exacerbate conflicts in the Middle East. The area’s remote location and its mountainous topography has enabled external groups to gain authority and access secure transit routes that connect conflicts in Iraq, Türkiye, Syria and Lebanon. Sinjar district has witnessed extreme violence in recent years, culminating in the rule of Islamic State (ISIS), which resulted in the deaths of thousands of civilians and forced many more to flee. As a result, 280,000 Yezidis are currently living as internally displaced persons in camps in a neighbouring governorate. Efforts to bring stability to the district have failed due to the exclusion of the two most powerful groups in Sinjar: the Kurdish Workers’ Party (PKK) and the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF). A more transnational approach to Sinjar, which includes the PKK and the PMF in future negotiations over the district, has the potential to make real progress in stabilizing the area so that its citizens can return home.

"There are conflicting data on the effects of magnesium on hypertension in the literature. Therefore we aim this study to investigate whether there is a relationship between serum magnesium levels and hypertension in newly diagnosed. This is a case-control study. The patients were selected from the records of patients who applied to the family medicine outpatient clinic between June 2016 and May 2017. A total of 276 patients, 68 patients with newly diagnosed hypertension in the case group and 208 patients without any disease in the control group were included in the study. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed between the case and control groups. The odds ratio for magnesium was 0.1 (0.012-0.810). When the value of the magnesium variable increases by 1mg/dl, the risk of hypertension decreases by 90%. However, in the presence of magnesium as an independent variable, the predictability rate of our model was expected to increase but decreased. The odds ratio for age was 1.14 (1.092-1.186). The odds ratio for exercise was 0.18 (0.03-0.99). The odds ratio for glucose was 1.03 (1.001-1.065). In our study that magnesium deficiency causes an increased risk of hypertension, the predictability rate of our model was expected to increase instead of decrease. These findings show that a cause-effect approach or incidental association cannot explain the relationship between magnesium and hypertension."

"The article shows the development of the method of psychological evaluation called “Evaluation of Negative Mental Reactions and States of Combatants”. In the study participated 1300 male servicemen (29.84% from junior lieutenant to colonel and servicemen under contract and demobilized, and 70.16% from private to senior warrant officer). The age of participants varied from 20 to 55 years. The system of evaluation developed consisted of 16 instruments that could help to determine the presence of negative psychological symptoms of servicemen related to their participation in hostilities. The results indicated that the evaluation method developed is a tool that allows determining the presence of negative psychological symptoms related to participation in combat. Likewise, it is a useful and fast method to assess the effectiveness of short-term psychological recovery programs. Unlike existing methods of diagnosing negative mental reactions and states of an individual, which arose after their participation in hostilities, the developed psychodiagnostic toolkit could consider the physical and mental fatigue of the respondents, their deterioration, and other cognitive dysfunctions."

This article examines the significance of Afghanistan in shaping the foreign policy of Uzbekistan. The geopolitical proximity of Uzbekistan to Afghanistan has had a profound impact on its foreign policy decisions, particularly in the realms of security, trade, and regional cooperation. Since the emergence of an independent Uzbekistan in 1991, the country has recognized the strategic importance of fostering stable and cooperative relations with its southern neighbor, Afghanistan. This article delves into the historical context of Uzbekistan-Afghanistan relations and analyzes the evolving dynamics in the wake of changing geopolitical landscapes, such as the withdrawal of international forces from Afghanistan and the subsequent power shift in Kabul. Furthermore, it explores the implications of Afghanistan's internal developments on Uzbekistan's security concerns, economic interests, and regional integration efforts. The study also sheds light on Uzbekistan's role in facilitating peace and stability in Afghanistan, as well as its engagement in regional initiatives aimed at fostering economic connectivity and security cooperation. By analyzing the multifaceted interplay between Uzbekistan and Afghanistan, this article aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how Afghanistan factors into the foreign policy calculus of Uzbekistan and the implications for regional dynamics in Central Asia. ‎

Authors:   Lecturer Of The Department Of Social Sciences Bukhara State Medical Institute, Uzbekistan, Hamdamov Behzod Kh.
Published: January 2024

This article delves into the author's research findings concerning the intricate realm of the philosophy of love within Eastern philosophy. The advent of machines into the annals of global civilization has brought forth an imperative call for a philosophical and anthropological exploration of humanity. Within this context, the necessity for a philosophical and anthropological examination of love’s position within the framework of human personality becomes even more pronounced.The quest for the essence of humanity is intricately linked with the spiritual journey of existence, entwined with the omnipresent and all-encompassing force of love. Issues such as the diminishing intensity of emotions, apathy, the primitive transformation of love, and the liberalization of sexual ethics have found their footing in the modern human experience. As society grapples with these challenges, the enduring presence of love remains a focal point in the ever-evolving tapestry of human existence.

The experiment was conducted at Horticultural Farm, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period of September to October 2023. The single factor experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications to study the growth and yield of water spinach. The experiment was consisted of five treatments namely; T1: Control (only same amount of water spray); T2: Vermi Tea (VT), T3: SAU-MLM, T4: SAU-NLM and T5: SAU-PLM. Treatments were applied to plants four times every 10 days interval from 7 days after seed germination. A significant variation was found among the parameters. The average tallest plant (42.1 cm), maximum SPAD Value (40.9), maximum leaf area (42.1 sq cm), Root length (12.1 cm) maximum root number (35.0), highest yield per plant (57.0 g) and highest yield per ha (11.1 ton) was found in (T5) application while shortest plant (24.3 cm), minimum SPAD Value (32.8), minimum leaf area (12.8 sq cm), lowest yield per plant (12.0 g) and the lowest yield per ha (4.4 tons) was found in (T1). Therefore, it can be concluded that SAU-PLM is easy and effective liquid manure that has the potential to increase the entire growth and yield of water spinach.
