Authors: Ma Yue
Published: July 2020

A ação penal pública é um elemento indispensável da administração hodierna da Justiça Penal. A ação penal pública, da forma como a conhecemos hoje, contudo, é produto de uma longa evolução. Historicamente, a perseguição ao crime era uma questão privada, sem que houvesse envolvimento oficial na ação penal. Este artigo explora o desenvolvimento da ação penal na Inglaterra, na Europa e nos Estados Unidos. A primeira parte traça a evolução dos métodos de acusação na Inglaterra e no continente europeu. A segunda parte enfoca o desenvolvimento da ação penal nos Estados Unidos, desde o período colonial até a formação do moderno sistema norte-americano de acusação. Este artigo destaca os eventos históricos que contribuíram para a evolução e para a transição dos métodos de acusação e analisa o impacto de diferentes valores históricos, culturais e políticos sobre a formação dos atuais sistemas de acusação na Europa e nos Estados Unidos.

Authors: Moreira Luiz , Machado Bruno Amaral
Published: July 2020

Nos últimos anos, os atores que integram o sistema de justiça passaram a receber mais atenção da mídia e da academia. O Ministério Público certamente é uma das instituições em que o desenho constitucional de 1988 permitiu redefinição de seu papel na sociedade brasileira. Historicamente subordinado ao Poder Executivo, o Ministério Público é, entre as instituições que integram o sistema de justiça, aquela que maior dificuldade suscita para o seu enquadramento institucional, decorrência da evolução da engenharia constitucional dos Estados de Direito no século XX, acirrando-se os debates sobre a sua natureza jurídica e as funções a serem desempenhadas e os modelos instituídos.
O Ministério Público e a Polícia no sistema de justiça criminal: interações, dinâmicas organizacionais e controle
Authors: Gomes Júnior Luiz Moreira , Machado Bruno Amaral
Published: July 2020

A discussão sobre o sistema de justiça criminal entrou na agenda política e recebe cada vez mais atenção dos meios de comunicação. A expansão do direito penal nas sociedades contemporâneas acentua expectativas sociais, muitas vezes frustradas, de controle penal do crime. A insatisfação com as formas de atuação e as soluções nacionais, não raramente, estão acompanhadas de comparações com experiências de outros países.
Ainda nuvens sobre o Ministério Público italiano: de magistrado independente a advogado da Polícia?
Authors: Vogliotti Massimo
Published: July 2020

Este artigo relembra, primeiramente, o processo que levou o Ministério Público italiano à conquista progressiva de sua independência e ao fortalecimento de seu papel. Essa evolução influiu em suas relações com a Polícia Judiciária, órgão sujeito a uma dupla fidelidade: ao governo, por um lado, e à magistratura, por outro. Se, durante o regime fascista, esse sistema encontrava-se muito desequilibrado do lado do poder político, a Constituição republicana e o novo Código de Processo Penal aumentaram o poder do Parquet na direção efetiva da Polícia. Nos últimos anos, esse quadro institucional – suficientemente equilibrado – foi várias vezes ameaçado por projetos de reforma que enfraquecem a independência do Ministério Público e contestam – em benefício da Polícia – seu papel ativo durante o inquérito.

Published: July 2020

A Revista do CNMP, em sua 5ª edição, aborda, em momento propício, tema que integra a ordem do dia e constitui uma das mais relevantes missões do Ministério Público: o combate à improbidade administrativa. A defesa do patrimônio público, da moralidade e da boa gestão, em linhas gerais, apresenta-se como condição imprescindível para que o Estado brasileiro cumpra satisfatoriamente os seus objetivos, confira efetividade aos direitos fundamentais e permita o adequado desenvolvimento socioeconômico nacional. A conveniência desta publicação deve-se, em boa parte, à nova fase histórica vivida pelo Ministério Público, marcada pelo reconhecimento definitivo do seu poder investigatório, notadamente a partir da rejeição da Proposta de Emenda Constitucional nº 37/2011 – popularmente denominada PEC 37 –, e dos julgamentos, pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal, da Ação Penal nº 470/MG, da Ação Direta de Inconstitucionalidade nº 5.104 e do Recurso Extraordinário nº 593.727/MG. Essa recente conquista, entretanto, traz consigo novas obrigações e amplia a esfera de responsabilidade da Instituição, exigindo-lhe maior amadurecimento no desempenho de sua atividade finalística, haja vista que a sociedade, cada dia mais informada e participante, já não tolera modelos organizacionais que não possam dar prontas respostas aos seus legítimos anseios. Nesse contexto, o Conselho Nacional do Ministério Público – que, no curso dos seus recém-completados dez anos de história, vem intensificando a sua atuação preventiva e o seu perfil indutor de políticas institucionais – defronta-se com o grandioso desafio de zelar pela unidade nacional do Ministério Público e de conduzilo nesse gradual processo de modernização. Sem sombra de dúvidas, esse contínuo e necessário aperfeiçoamento institucional em muito contribuirá para o enfrentamento da corrupção, da improbidade administrativa e da má gestão pública, mazelas que não trazem em si diferenças ontológicas, mas que resultam, tão somente, de perspectivas analíticas distintas de um mesmo fenômeno social. Lançando olhar sobre esse novo horizonte, o Conselho Nacional do Ministério Público – contando com a dedicada atuação de seus conselheiros, membros auxiliares, membros colaboradores e servidores, sobretudo daqueles que compõem a Comissão de Acompanhamento Legislativo e Jurisprudência e, em particular, a Assessoria de Comunicação, responsável pela supervisão gráfica da presente obra desempenhando, também desta forma, seu papel de orientador do Ministério Público brasileiro, disseminando conhecimento a partir da organização e publicação de dez seletos artigos sobre essa instigante matéria, fomentando o debate acadêmico e contribuindo para o contínuo aprimoramento da atuação institucional.
As faces visíveis e invisíveis do nepotismo no serviço público
Authors: Borges Maria Cecília
Published: July 2020

A aprovação da Súmula Vinculante nº 13 pelo STF foi importante passo contra a influência das relações familiares como fator determinante de nomeações para cargos e funções públicos da Administração Pública, favorecimento popularmente conhecido como nepotismo. Certo é que o nepotismo seja favorecimento decorrente das relações parentais por afinidade ou consanguinidade. Ao presente artigo interessa aquele por intermédio do qual uma pessoa é conduzida a determinado cargo ou função de confiança sem o crivo selecionador prévio de um procedimento isonômico, objetivo e pautado pelas qualidades do nomeado e pela impessoalidade, condução esta que não aconteceria em circunstâncias outras que não a relação de parentesco preexistente. Passados alguns anos, novas manifestações de nepotismo podem surgir, ao mesmo tempo em que outras práticas de nepotismo ainda sobreviverão. A propósito, um dos objetivos do presente artigo é o de tirar da obscuridade as formas invisíveis disfarçadas desse favorecimento antirrepublicano e contrário ao interesse público. O favorecimento de parentes no acesso aos cargos públicos deve ser combatido, sejam aqueles alcançados pela Súmula Vinculante sejam outras formas que possam surgir dissimuladamente, apresentando-se como se nepotismo não fosse. É o caso, por exemplo, de uma espécie, que ora se descortina, que pode ser denominada como nepotismo tardio ou póstumo, em que antigos dirigentes se valem, não mais do cargo ocupado, pois que dele já se afastaram, mas da influência que ainda exercem em órgãos ou entidades públicas para aí nomear seus parentes.

The Impact of Non-Islamic Sources on the Sirah-Writing: An Analytical Study of the Contemporary Western Scholarship
Authors: Hussain Dr. Mubashir
Published: July 2020

The eighteenth century Europe witnessed the application of the newly introduced historical-critical methods to the social sciences. Relying upon such methods, some Western scholars criticized the traditional approaches to the Islamic studies. Although the major Islamic sources were translated into European languages and thus became widely accessible, they incorporated several non-Islamic sources in the study of Islamic history and civilization after discovering them from the ancient archives. Hence, it is also claimed that there are some covenants allegedly concluded by Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) with certain Christian communities of his time, which are surprisingly not recorded in the classical Islamic literature. Thus, this kind of non-Islamic sources have significantly drawn the attention of both Muslim and non-Muslim historians across the globe. This paper attempts to apply the criteria of Islamic sources set by the classical Islamic scholars, to the non-Islamic sources in order to examine the latter’s authenticity. The conclusion reached by the scholars in this regard shows the latter’s disagreement with a number of established Islamic doctrines. Moreover, it expounds how and to what extent one can rely upon the non-Islamic sources in this regard.
Sanctity of Human Life, Corpse’s reverence and Abortion in Islam and Buddhism: Comparative Study
Authors: Nasir Muhammad Sulaiman , Yusuf Dr. Imtiyaz
Published: July 2020

Human beings are the cynosure of the whole universe. Islam and Buddhism both emphasized the sanctity of human life. The killing of people is not allowed in Islam in any form whatsoever. In Buddhism, the non-violence (Ahimsa) philosophy states that every living thing’s life is sacred. This study is aimed to identify the teachings of Islam and Buddhism regarding corpse’s reverence and abortion. Islam markedly stress on the holiness of human life. In Islam, it is not permissible for a person to attack someone's life or property or reputation. According to Buddhist’s concept of Karma and Cycle of Samsara, the life of human beings is equal to that of all other living things that is why Buddhism does not allow the killing of insects. A comparative methodology will be adopted in this study. It is concluded that both Islam and Buddhism have the same viewpoint on the sanctity of human life but regarding the corpse’s reverence and abortion, these have a different perspective.
The Impact of the Partition of India on the Study of Hinduism in the Urdu Language
Authors: Akram Dr. Muhammad , Qurrat ul Ain Dr. Ayesha
Published: July 2020

Religion, language, and race have been among the most crucial factors behind the formation of various national and communal identities in modern South Asian history. Just like the political division of British India, the complex interplay of these factors also culminated in a bifurcation of linguistic boundaries along the religious lines according to which Urdu became associated with Islam and Muslims. In contrast, Hindi became increasingly connected to the Hindu culture. These historical developments also affected the extent and nature of the academic materials on Hinduism in the Urdu language, which the present paper examines. The paper takes stock of different relevant materials. Then, it discusses how the changed socio-political realities quantitatively and qualitatively affected the works on Hinduism in the Urdu language as the majority of the Hindu scholars lost enthusiasm to write on their religion in Urdu considering its increased perception of being a Muslim language. Muslims in Pakistan, on the other hand, lost opportunities of everyday interaction with Hindus and easy access to the original Hindi and Sanskrit sources resulting in a considerable decline in Hindu studies on their part. Thus, the overall production of literature on Hinduism in the Urdu language declined sharply. By implication, the paper hints at how decisively socio-political and historical contexts bear on the pursuit of the academic study of religion.

Authors: Sarfraz Khan  , Syed Imran Haider  , Mohammad Ali
Published: July 2020

The process of out-migration has significantly been associated with the welfare of the households at origin across the world. The process of migration is mainly initiated from Pakistan with a prime objective to elevate the social position as there are only a few opportunities left for the people to work and earn for livings. The overall size of international migrants from Sindh province is a handful (approximately .9 million) and the majority of these migrants moved to the Gulf region but some also moved to the rest of the world particularly in Europe and the US. The impact of migration can be seen on many aspects of households of migrants but for the current research, it is focused only on female children’s education in the case of Khairpur (Mir’s) district in the province of Sindh, Pakistan. The selection of the respondents was made by using purposive sampling technique. The data was collected from 120 households of migrants who at least had one member living abroad and sending remittances regularly. The focus of the current research was on two major aspects; (a) out-migration and inflow of remittances and (b) educational outcomes of the female children studying at primary school level. It is perceived that migration of father and subsequently the inflow of remittances can make a huge difference for the educational outcomes of female children. In some cases, the inflow of remittances leads toward the improvement in the educational performance of the female children.

Published: July 2020

The study focused on the development and validation of modules for teaching Human Rights (HRs). The researchers developed modules consisted of nine units, based on previous modules and literature. One group pre-test-post-test (pre-experimental) design was used to validate the module. A Self-reported 5-point Likert scale (22-item) was developed for pre- and post-test assessment. Forty-seven (47) final year students of BS education were pre-tested, 27 hours treatment was given to them through the teaching of Human Rights Values (HRVs) by using Modular Approach (MA), and again tested. Data were analyzed by applying a paired sample t-test. A significant difference was found in students’ attitudes towards learning HRs before and after the treatment. The mean gain score of the learners was higher on the post-test as compared to that of on pre-test. Hence, it is concluded that the module for teaching HRs has been proved to be valid and effective.

Authors: Dr. Sarwat Jabeen  , Abdul Rashid  , Dr. Samia Naz
Published: July 2020

Recently, the concept of Critical thinking got much significance in the teaching and learning process. Thinking creatively and critically in the English language beckons our representation in different domains of development as well. The present study is aimed to investigate the on-going teaching-learning process of English Language Teaching at University Level in South Punjab from the perspective of critical thinking. The theoretical insights have been taken from Freire’s Banking concept of education in his seminal work, Pedagogy of the Oppressed (2018). The findings of the study reveal that our ELT classrooms are lacking the creativity and critical thinking at large. Further in our classrooms, the Banking Model of teaching is being practiced where a student remains passive and the teacher is considered as the ultimate source of knowledge. It points out that our teaching and learning process is moving on some faulty lines which need revisions and amendments. It is suggested that the Problem Posing Model of teaching and learning may be adopted in our ELT Classrooms so that our graduates at the university level may think critically and independently.

Authors: Dr. Muhammad Tariq  , Dr. Muhammad Rizwan  , Dr. Manzoor Ahmad
Published: July 2020

This paper discusses the US engagement in Afghanistan with particular reference to their withdrawal within a specified period of fourteen months. An agreement has been reached between the US and Taliban on February 29, 2020, at Doha (Qatar) followed by the intra-Afghan talks, which is expected to bring lasting peace and stability in the country. The issues of deadlock between the Afghan government and the Taliban and the pandemic COVID-19 are some of the obstacles in the way of peace. The theory of bargain provides a theoretical framework for the paper. The paper focuses on the post-withdrawal scenario of the US troops and ground realities that will help in prognosticating the future of Afghanistan. Keeping in view the post-US-Taliban agreement, it is difficult to say with certainty that peace and stability may shape the future destiny of the country since more than 1,300 casualties have happened in Afghanistan during the last three months despite the singing of the agreement.

Authors: Abdul Rashid  , Dr. Sarwat Jabeen  , Sara Shahbaz
Published: July 2020

Since, the incident of 9/11, the identity of the Muslims across the globe have gone through serious misrepresentations by the western media. This paper provides the insights that how the Muslims have been treated as suspected ones by the westerns. The loyalties of the Muslims were suspected and doubted in America in response to the incident of 9/11. Muslims were victimized on account of their negatively perceived identity. In-Home Boy the Muslim immigrants consistently attempt to re-write and negotiate their identity in response to their misrepresentations of identity. For thematic analysis, theoretical insights have been taken from Almond’s The New Orientalists: Postmodern Representations of Islam from Foucault to Baudrillard. The textual analysis of the novel reveals that the Muslims in the western world were already suspected due to the orientalist mind-set of the American society but the incident of 9/11 aggravated this situation in practical social settings. Naqvi speaks for the voiceless Muslims of the third world whose identities had been erased by blowing discursive discourse of 9/11. Naqvi provides readers the sufferings of the Muslims and extends the relevance of 9/11 from Euro-American context to the non-western i.e. the Asians.

Published: July 2020

Voting is the most common and effective way of political participation across the globe. Voting substantiates voters’ will and decides the fate of the country. Voting signifies that voters are informed and responsible citizens and showing their interest in state and its matters. It is, however a very complex phenomenon. Different social, economic, institutional, political, situational, and personal factors are considered essential to elaborate voting behavior. The present research includes these factors to find out which factor/s explains the best in rural areas of the Punjab, Pakistan. For this research 241 voters were recruited from a rural constituency of district Jhang. Linear regression analysis was run for the analysis. Findings bring forth that Baradri (caste group) explains 72 % variation in voting behavior followed by the influence of the family i.e. 20%. Personality attributes, religious affiliation (sect), political campaign, and peer suggestions were somehow significant factors. However, sympathy with and experience of the candidate in politics were not statistically significant in this research. The study confirms that being a traditional society, caste group affiliation is more powerful in deciding whom to vote than other factors. Voters feel pressurized by their caste groups and respective families while deciding their votes.

Las variedades locales de maíz presentan una gran relevancia socioeconómica en los sistemas agrícolas familiares de la provincia de Misiones. La pérdida de costumbres y tradiciones asociadas a su uso ponen en riesgo su conservación. Con el fin de aportar al conocimiento de la variabilidad genética local, contribuir a la conservación, revalorización y utilización de estos recursos, se estudiaron 16 poblaciones nativas de diferente origen y fecha de colecta mediante descriptores agromorfológicos. Los resultados permiten concluir que 1) las poblaciones nativas evaluadas albergan niveles considerables de variabilidad genética; 2) Se mantiene la identidad de razas dentro de cada origen; y 3) existe una tendencia al aumento de productividad en las colectas actuales. Esto pone de manifiesto, por un lado, la existencia de barreras geográficas y culturales que preservan el ideotipo, y por otro, la naturaleza dinámica de la conservación sometida a procesos de selección, sustitución y/o introgresión genética.

La investigación se realizó en tres obras hidráulicas: la estación de bombeo de la presa Máximo, la Potabilizadora de Camagüey y la estación de bombeo de la presa Pontezuela. Los resultados obtenidos demostraron que el método propuesto para el diseño de conductoras provocó una disminución de la potencia de las bombas y del costo de operación en 30,2% y 29,2 respectivamente y un tiempo de amortización promedio de 6,51 años. Los valores de velocidades más económicas estuvieron entre 0,52 m s a 0,79 m s con un promedio de 0,655 m s . Los diseños hidráulicos de conductoras con reducción del diámetro para alcanzar la presión requerida en la descarga de la bomba; generan pérdidas superiores en casi dos veces la potencia necesaria en los motores de las electrobombas debido a que constituye un caso de estrangulación de la corriente; por lo que en caso de ser necesario esta variante se debe utilizar una válvula para que las pérdidas sean relativamente más bajas.

En el presente trabajo se realizó la simulación del proceso de producción del cumeno a partir de la alquilación del benceno con propileno mediante el simulador ChemCAD® versión 5.2.0. Se obtuvieron las curvas de calor de cada uno de los intercambiadores de calor de tubo y coraza utilizados, mientras que se calculó la composición y caudal de cada una de las corrientes involucradas en el proceso. También se efectuó un estudio de sensibilidad con el fin de conocer la influencia de la presión de operación del tanque flash sobre la cantidad de cumeno a obtener por la corriente del fondo de este equipo. Se obtienen 13 403,54 kg/h de cumeno por el tope de la segunda columna de destilación (columna de cumeno), con una pureza del 98,6%, siendo el benceno (1,2%) la principal impureza encontrada en esta corriente. El tanque flash deberá operar a una presión de 7 atm para obtener el mayor rendimiento de cumeno en este equipo.
Entre las curvas de la arquitectura contemporánea y la enseñanza de la geometría en arquitectura: un enfoque didáctico del diseño paramétrico

A arquitetura contemporânea vive momentos de grandes transformações, relativas especialmente ao processo de projetar, ao emprego de materiais e técnicas de construção inovadoras e de simulação, visando avaliar o desempenho do objeto arquitetônico durante todo o processo, desde a concepção até a sua vida útil. Neste contexto, identificam-se a presença de novos saberes os quais necessitam serem apropriados pelos arquitetos e designers, desde que estes são os principais envolvidos em todo o processo (concepção, projeto, construção, avaliação de uso). Consequentemente, configura-se um problema didático para as escolas de arquitetura, no sentido de preparar tais profissionais para atuação no mercado de trabalho do projeto contemporâneo. Uma das abordagens envolvidas em tais processos de projeto contemporâneo relaciona-se com a complexidade geométrica das formas propostas, as quais são definidas com base em um conjunto de abordagens. Estas podem ser desde as que se fundamentam no desenvolvimento tecnológico que possibilita integrar ambientes digitais de representação gráfica e simulação para a busca da forma e a sua otimização e, por outro lado, na exploração do funcionamento dos sistemas naturais, seus processos e a formação de suas geometrias, tal como aplicado por Gaudì, Frei Otto, Félix Candela, Heinz Isler e Luig Nervi no passado. A conexão entre práticas de projeto computacional e fenômenos da natureza surge como uma abordagem potente na arquitetura, no sentido de economia de materiais e integração qualitativa com o ambiente ou o lugar de sua inserção. Anteriormente, por meio de uma pesquisa de doutorado, foi constituída uma rede de conceitos das superfícies complexas da arquitetura contemporânea, e, no estudo presente, objetiva-se, a partir de um caso de arquitetura referencial, promover uma investigação didática sobre o emprego de superfícies complexas na arquitetura, visando à construção de referenciais para a adoção de técnicas de modelagem paramétrica e fabricação digital, como suporte à ação projetual.

Por tratar-se de um material leve, resistente, versátil e potencialmente transparente, os plásticos se tornam ideais para uma diversidade de aplicações. Porém, cerca de 300 milhões de toneladas de plástico são produzidos por ano, dos quais 13 milhões são levados aos rios e oceanos podendo causar danos irreparáveis a esse ecossistema afetando os organismos com capacidade limitada de adaptação. Estima-se que 8300 milhões de toneladas métricas (MT) de plástico foram produzidas até o momento, das quais 6300 MT se tornaram resíduos a partir de 2015, e foram reciclados apenas 9%. Mesmo que os microplásticos (MP’s) estejam onipresentes nos oceanos, o risco que podem causar à saúde humana ainda não é uma questão definida. As evidências dos impactos negativos do plástico e seus detritos microplásticos e nanoplástico ingerido pelos organismos de diversos ecossistemas, são fornecidos constantemente pela comunidade científica. Por isso, o objetivo deste trabalho foi realizar uma investigação bibliográfica sobre o estado atual do conhecimento sobre os microplásticos e os seus impactos sobre o meio ambiente, principalmente nos ambientes aquáticos.
