Strategic Planning and Institutional Development of 21st Century Diplomacy Models
Authors: Tsivatyi Viacheslav
Published: December 2024

Abstract. As the 21st-century international relations system transforms, every state faces the critical concepts of ‘strategy’, ‘strategic management’, and ‘strategic planning’.
This article places special emphasis on strategic planning within international relations and diplomacy. It underscores the necessity of strategic management and strategic planning as integral components of diplomatic administrative activities. In this context, the author explores innovative approaches to the institutional development of diplomatic and strategic planning models and creates a national strategic management and planning model. The article identifies the types, principles, and specific features of strategies and strategic analysis.
The author addresses the issue of modernising the strategic planning system and introduces a new educational and scientific model for training specialists in international relations with a specialisation in ‘Strategic Planning and Management in Practical Diplomacy’.
The article characterises short-term, medium-term, and long-term strategic planning and determines the situational appropriateness of their application. It also illustrates the impact of strategic communications and strategic planning on decision-making at the political level and on trends in political processes within interstate relations. The conclusions state that an effective strategic planning model in diplomacy is an inseparable component of a nation’s security in a globalised world order: a weapon of soft and, under special conditions, hard power.
Keywords: theory and practice of diplomacy, strategy, strategic management, strategic planning, strategic analysis, diplomacy, diplomatic environment, theory of international relations, diplomatic system, system of international relations.
How Ukraine Lost and Fought for the Waters of the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait
Authors: Osavoliuk Leonid
Published: December 2024

Abstract. The article provides a detailed account of the preparation and course of negotiations between Ukraine and the russian federation on the delimitation of the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait, which took place in December 2003. It highlights the role and pressure exerted by A. Orel regarding the author’s visa as a representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine to accept the russian version of the draft agreement between Ukraine and the russian federation on cooperation in the use of the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait. The article specifies several amendments to the russian draft agreement proposed by the author.
It outlines the negotiations with the russian side in the city of Kerch. The author analyses the efforts of A. Orel and V. Medvedchuk to convince him to sign the russian version of the draft agreement to avoid derailing the negotiation process. Additionally, he emphasises President of Ukraine L. Kuchma’s stance, asserting that he insisted on requiring a visa from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine before signing any document.
Following complex negotiations, Ukraine successfully obtained russia’s agreement to delimit the Sea of Azov along the state borderline while reaching a ‘vague’ formulation regarding a future agreement concerning the Kerch Strait. Furthermore, the negotiators established freedom of navigation for military and commercial vessels of both states in the Kerch Strait and the Sea of Azov and permitted navigation for commercial vessels of third states.
The article highlights that after signing the agreement, russia started delaying and blocking negotiations on the delimitation of the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait. Moreover, considering the lack of prospects for russia’s ratification of the agreement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine prepared a draft Law of Ukraine ‘On the Internal Waters, Territorial Sea, and Adjacent Zone of Ukraine’, which proposed declaring Ukraine’s territorial sea in the Sea of Azov to be 12 nautical miles wide. However, the Verkhovna Rada never advanced this draft law to a second reading due to aggressive opposition from russia and the influence of the fifth column in Ukraine.
The article stresses the need to return to this draft law, the adoption of which, given its compliance with international maritime law, would serve as a significant counterbalance to russia’s ‘legislation’ regarding the inclusion of Ukrainian territories into the russian federation.
Keywords: russian-Ukrainian negotiations, Sea of Azov, Kerch Strait, international maritime law, draft law.

“I LONG TO STRIDE BEHIND MY LORD”: THE YEARNING VOICE IN VITTORIA COLONNA’S SONNETS
Authors: Altunsoy Şafak
Published: December 2024

Vittoria Colonna’s selected sonnets explore the sacred-profane dichotomy through the tension between earthly and divine forms of love. Colonna acknowledges that even though she maintains a strong faith, spiritual purity can be unattainable due to earthbound concerns. The contradictory feelings of holding a privileged position in the material world and longing for the eternal are poeticised with the clash between the earthly and the supernatural in Colonna’s poetry. The analysis of the selected sonnets intends to highlight the poet’s conflicting voices and personas as both a courtly woman and a devout follower of Christ. This study, therefore, focuses on Colonna’s selected sonnets to illustrate how the poet uses imagery to contrast the notion of faith and ‘false’ desires from an Aristotelian perspective. A close reading of the poems reveals Colonna’s literary complexity and the poet’s religious attitude in creating the sonnets for Christ during a time when the profane challenged the sacred. The study concludes that Colonna’s sonnets transcend personal expression in a didactic manner by constructing a space for hope, potentially offering solace not only to Colonna but to others as well.

Authors: Gilbert Winata  , Ade Adhari
Published: December 2024

Pemberatan pidana terhadap pelaku Tindak Pidana Pencucian Uang (TPPU) yang terkait dengan narkotika sebagai predicate crime merupakan isu penting dalam penegakan hukum di Indonesia. Kejahatan ini tidak hanya merugikan perekonomian negara, tetapi juga memperkuat jaringan kriminal yang mengancam stabilitas sosial. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis konsistensi penerapan pemberatan pidana dan mengidentifikasi disparitas sanksi dalam kasus Tindak Pidana Pencucian Uang yang terkait dengan narkotika. Menggunakan metode penelitian hukum normatif, studi ini menelaah peraturan perundang-undangan, putusan pengadilan, dan doktrin hukum untuk mengungkap pola pemberatan sanksi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun Undang-Undang Nomor 8 Tahun 2010 dan Undang-Undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2009 telah memberikan kerangka hukum yang jelas, terdapat disparitas signifikan dalam putusan pengadilan pada kasus serupa. Disparitas ini dipengaruhi oleh subjektivitas hakim, ketidakkonsistenan sistem peradilan, dan perkembangan modus operandi kejahatan yang semakin kompleks. Reformasi sistem peradilan, seperti penerapan sistem kamar di Mahkamah Agung, penyusunan pedoman hukum yang rinci, serta penguatan kerja sama internasional, diperlukan untuk meningkatkan efektivitas penegakan hukum. Penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya pendekatan terpadu yang menggabungkan efek jera, keadilan, dan rehabilitasi guna mengatasi dampak luas Tindak Pidana Pencucian Uang dan kejahatan narkotika, sekaligus menciptakan keadilan substantif.
Tanggung Jawab Notaris atas Kelalaian Penomoran Ganda pada Akta Otentik
Authors: Anjelita Gina
Published: December 2024

A notary can commit negligence with the same numbering of two different notary deeds or what is often called double numbering. This is certainly detrimental to the credibility of the authentic deed. This certainly violates the obligations of Notaries as stated in Article 16 and 17 of the UUJN. The purpose of this study is to analyze and describe the responsibility of notaries for negligence in double numbering in authentic deeds and the validity of authentic deeds with double numbering. This research is processed with a normative juridical approach method, namely by looking at law as a set of regulations/rules or doctrines that have a normative nature (law in book). As a result of the problem, the Notary is responsible for his negligence in giving a double deed numbering on the authentic deed he made. Sanctions that can ensnare Notaries are in the form of administrative sanctions, civil sanctions, and/or criminal sanctions. However, even if there is a double numbering on the deed, it does not necessarily invalidate the validity of a deed. As long as the contents of the deed have met the conditions for the validity of an agreement as stipulated in Article 1320 of the Civil Code, the deed still has binding legal force.
Automation of I-V curve measurement for photovoltaic modules: a practical approach
Authors: Zerhouni M’hamed Houari , Zegrar Mansour , Benmessaoud Mohamed Tarik , Zerhouni Fatima Zohra , Zegrar Nouh
Published: December 2024

A photovoltaic (PV) module's efficiency is influenced by factors such as environmental conditions (Solar light intensity, temperature) and the load. These modules can encounter various problems that significantly impact their power output, leading to poor overall system performance. The Current-Voltage (I-V) curve is a graphical representation that illustrates the characteristics of a PV module (MPV). Measuring this curve in real-time is essential for diagnosing faults and analyzing PV installations. It offers a quick way to test modules and identify issues like shading, mismatching... This paper presents an experimental system designed to measure the I-V curve of a PV module under real operating conditions. The measurement process is automated and serves to assess the module’s health, degradation, and overall performance. An Arduino card  is used to control the measurements, which are conducted in situ, in real time. The effectiveness of this method is validated through experimental data collected from a PV module. The developed system provides a visual display of the module's electrical characteristics and shows solar solar light intensity and temperature in real time on an LCD screen. All results are also displayed  on PC. Experimental results are presented.
Achieving >28% power conversion efficiency in a-Si:H/c-Si solar cells through emitter optimization
Authors: Khalid Toumi
Published: December 2024

Heterojunction solar cell efficiency is crucial for performance and commercial viability. This study investigates hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H), hydrogenated nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si:H), and hydrogenated amorphous silicon germanium (a-SiGe:H) as p-type emitter layers in a-Si:H/c-Si heterojunction solar cells, examining their influence on short-circuit current density (Jsc), open-circuit voltage (Voc), fill factor (FF), and power conversion efficiency (PCE). Considering the reported effects of hydrogen dilution and substrate temperature on the optoelectronic properties of these materials [1, 2], we employed AMPS-1D simulations to model device performance with various emitter layers (a-Si:H(p), nc-Si:H(p), μc-Si:H(p), a-SiC:H(p), and a-SiGe:H(p)). A baseline (PCE) of 27.38% was achieved using a standard a-Si:H(p) emitter (1.8 eV bandgap). Alternative emitters yielded improved PCEs: nc-Si:H(p) (28.26% at 1.9 eV), μc-Si:H(p) (28.04% at 1.5 eV), and a-SiGe:H(p) (28.18% at 1.7 eV). These enhancements are attributed to the wider bandgaps, higher conductivity, and lower defect densities of these materials, resulting in reduced recombination losses and enhanced carrier collection. Our findings demonstrate the significant potential of emitter layer optimization for maximizing a-Si:H/c-Si heterojunction solar cell power conversion efficiency.
Optimizing radar controlled airspace through ads-b implementation in Algerian aviation: the Northern FIR case
Authors: Boureghda Rahma , Boudani Abdelkader , Kedaimia Abdelghani , Saci Hajer
Published: December 2024

The Algerian Air Navigation Service Provider (ENNA) operates a surveillance network mostly relying on radar systems, leaving gaps in coverage in difficult terrain such as deserts and mountainous areas, thereby restricting traffic surveillance. Algerian airspace is mainly connected to Spanish and French airspace in the north, creating a natural link between Europe and Africa which demonstrates the impact of air traffic.ENNA's operations demand double continuous surveillance coverage of the airspace in northern Algeria characterized by high traffic in order to reinforce existing radar performance,fill coverage gaps and accommodate the growth of air traffic.The Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) system serves as a vital element of CNS/ATM advised by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) as the future of air traffic control solutions, offering numerous benefits in safety, cost and performance including large coverage in contrast to conventional surveillance systems, the ADS-B service significantly enhances traffic surveillance capabilities by more quickly updating and sharing accurate aircraft position data derived from satellite navigation, leading to better tracking abilities. These critical factors support the integration of ADS-B into Algerian airspace to address existing coverage deficiencies and traffic surveillance issues, thus leading to improved air traffic surveillance in northern Algeria. For this purpose, we propose an efficient and accurate coverage simulation to determine the best location and number of ADS-B receivers in order to achieve the most adequate ADS-B coverage possible to fully cover the northern Algerian airspace. The coverage of ADS-B can be ensured by comparison with current radar coverage.
Understanding the experience of death in the Irish and British Mesolithic
Authors: Mallonee Elizabeth
Published: December 2024

When a person dies, their death is felt by the whole community. It not only creates a ‘hole’ in the social structure that the person once filled but also creates a body in a liminal state, a corpse, that is neither a living member of the community nor fully removed from society. To work through the issues of closure – for both the person’s role in society and the corpse – funerary rituals are employed. These ritualised responses to death allow the living to ‘experience’ death. This project aims to explore how the people of Mesolithic Britain and Ireland experienced death through the handing of a corpse. The known human remains dated to the Mesolithic in these locations are scarce, and even fewer are found in a recognisable mortuary context. To do this I have taken a three-step approach. First, I have researched archaeological records for human bone sites directly dated to the Mesolithic. Additionally, I have created a catalogue of up-to-date sites with human bone directly dated to the Mesolithic. These sites are categorised by context: cave, cremation, water/floodplain, open-air and midden. Second, I have created a timeline putting each site into chronological order to see what mortuary behaviours are happening over time. Third, I have conducted a cross-cultural analysis of recorded hunting and gathering groups that exhibit similar mortuary behaviour. As death is one of the only universal human experiences, it is important to understand how this emotional process may have been conceptualised and experienced.
Reconstructing situated learning in a community of practice using cognigrams

Artefacts are the primary resources of archaeological research, and they provide us with evidence about the evolution of hominin sensory-motor and cognitive capacities. Extended childhood is an evolutionary hallmark of
Homo sapiens
and developmental psychology provides rich insights on how specifically human cognition emerges from infancy to adulthood. Yet, attempts to analyse the cognitive abilities of past children as reflected in their tool behaviour are rare. At the same time, novel theoretical and methodological approaches have boosted the visibility of prehistoric children suggesting that their situated exposure to specific materials and technologies in part conditions their cognitive ontogeny. Applying the cognigram approach to ethnographic observations and museum objects from the Wodaabe of West Africa, we reconstruct a setting of situated learning through developing peripheral participation across different-age learners and teachers. Based on a bow-arrow-quiver set made for playing it is possible to identify different learning processes and aims as well as changing roles within a community of practice of Wodaabe bowyers. Against this background, we discuss the role of play in innovation and, taking our argument into prehistory, we note how the initial emergence of play objects correlates with periods of innovation.
The intimate lives of hunter-gatherer children and adolescents
Authors: Hewlett Bonnie
Published: December 2024

The primary aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the daily lives and experiences of children and adolescents in contemporary hunter-gatherer societies. The study focuses on cultural and demographic factors that influence children’s experiences and examines general characteristics of childhood among forager communities. A secondary aim of the paper is to discuss, when possible, links between hunter-gatherer children’s lives and the archaeological record. This review focuses on the Aka and other Congo Basin hunter-gatherer because of the extensive amount of recent research on childhood in these groups, but also includes comparisons with foragers in other natural and social settings.

The study analyses multiple features of childcare and children’s experiences, such as infant care, physical and emotional intimacy, play, co-sleeping and social learning. Hunter-gatherer societies have relatively unique cultural practices common to many groups living in diverse natural environments and which seem to have been conserved over time and space (Hewlett BS et al 2024). The archaeological record may have limited physical artefacts associated with children, but their lived experiences and activities can still manifest as discernible archaeological signatures.

The examination of childhood in hunter-gatherer societies yields valuable insights into the breadth of human experiences and the impact of cultural practices on and by children. Understanding the cultural diversity, life experiences, and behavioural patterns of contemporary hunter-gatherer children holds promise for enriching our understanding and interpretation of children in prehistoric archaeological contexts. The findings demonstrate that children played an active and influential role within their communities, engaging in, learning from, and contributing to cultural practices and archaeological signatures.
Research note: Music of the Jul’hoan trance dance: claps and relative pace
Authors: de Voogt Alex , Metzger Patrick
Published: December 2024

The Jul’hoan people from lXaelxae, Botswana, have an active repertoire of songs accompanied by leg rattles and hand clapping that are part of what is known as a trance dance. It was found that a specific group of Jul’hoan people, who used a finite set of 12 songs, was able to identify a song in the majority of the cases by listening only to hand clapping. The participants suggested that ‘speed’ or ‘relative pace’ was diagnostic. This suggestion was tested through an exercise as well as in an analysis of recorded trance dance music.

With the advancements in high-definition imaging and parallel computing hardware, the analysis of massive visual data has become a key focus in pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. Chinese calligraphy, an integral part of traditional culture, has seen digitization of numerous works stored in digital libraries. However, current automatic calligraphy character recognition technology is limited, necessitating the development of efficient computer vision methods for recognizing calligraphy styles. Data mining, crucial in artificial intelligence, involves extracting valuable knowledge from vast and noisy datasets. Recent simulation results show promising recognition rates for Chinese text images, with an average recognition time of 5 seconds per 100 words. This system significantly improves handwriting recognition accuracy compared to existing algorithms, though further refinement and expansion are needed for optimal functionality.
Social Sciences and Humanities on Big Data: a Bibliometric Analysis
Authors: Becerra Gastón , Ratovicius Cristian
Published: December 2024

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive bibliometric review of social science, psychology, and humanities literature focusing on big data. Methods: Production and authorship trends, topics and areas as well as citations were analyzed by means of conducting a bibliometric analysis of a corpus of 5,500 Scopus articles published from 2010 to 2020. Findings: Analysis revealed similarities and differences among social science, psychology, and humanities literature in terms of publication, framing, and referencing trends as compared with the general big data literature: both fields show a steady increase, although the increase rate slowed down as from 2015; text production of both specific and general fields is led by just a few countries, with the USA and China being on top of the ranking; single authorship has been decreasing in both fields; the specificity of big data framing, in social sciences and humanities, has been identified with a critical view that surpass the ethical considerations, to include the social construction of datasets, the political and ideological uses of big data, and the discussion of its philosophical and epistemological foundations. Value: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to provide a comprehensive view on social sciences and humanities big data bibliometrics while providing context to compare results.
