AFRICA AND THE ORIGIN OF DEMOCRACY: A REAPPRAISAL OF THE IGBO ‘STATELESS’ SOCIETY
Authors: Ekpo Charles E. , Chime Jide
Published: October 2024

So much have been conceptualized about democracy, its theories, models, principles, functionalities, etc. The concept has been over-flogged by an avalanche of scholars in the humanities, social and political sciences. Nevertheless, nominal effort is concentrated in critically studying the rudiment of its origin. Most scholars have however relegated the importance of analytically looking into the rather complex issue of the evolution of democracy and think it to be the prerogative of Athens. In some scholarly publications whereby a subheading for the history of democracy is rendered, the totality of the argument is based on Athens as the edifice to which modern democracy traces its origin. Such assertions remain unchallenged in western historiography but can same be said of Africa which had harbored several democratic institutions before the advent of Europeans? The focus of this work is not to deprive Athens of its rightful place in the history of democracy, but rather, to emphatically state that some forms and traits of democratic governance had existed in Africa devoid of Athenian and other „foreign‟ influences; a case study being the Igbo traditional political structure. The work argues that these examples of democratic governments deserve a mention in the assays of democracy history. The work therefore charges scholars to note these independently evolved democratic institutions in pre-colonial Africa and do justice to them by incorporating them while arguing the history and evolution of democracy. Both primary and secondary evidence are utilized in this work.
Rationality and Gricean Inference with Reference to English-Arabic Translation
Authors: Al-Sulaimaan Misbah M. D. , Al-Khaffaf Teeba N.T.
Published: October 2024

The present study tackles “Rationality and Gricean inference” in English and its translation from English into Arabic. Inference can be defined as a logical conclusion that is drawn from a premise and it is used to describe that process which the reader (hearer) must go through to get from the literal meaning of what is written (or said) to what the writer (speaker) intended to convey. Rationality can be defined as thinking, speaking, reasoning, making a decision, or acting in a way that is generally reliable and efficient for achieving one's goals. This study aims at (1) specifying and studying a number of different patterns of inferences in books of Pragmatics and some Pragmatic periodicals in order to grasp their nature and role in the process of communication, (2) giving a comprehensive coverage of inferences in English and, (3) testing the translatability of the inferences in question which are linguistically, culturally and genetically different and (4) showing the realizations of the inferences in the TL (Arabic) and (5) showing that inferences in English cannot be successfully translated into Arabic without grasping cultural values, and linguistic variation. To achieve the above mentioned aims the study hypothesizes that: (1) inferences in English cannot be successfully translated into Arabic without grasping cultural values and linguistic variations, (2) multiplicity of inferences that can be concluded from every utterance results in different renderings by the subjects, (3) taking Grice's maxims of conversation into consideration enables the translators to arrive at how inferences in the utterances under investigation can be deduced and (4) inference cannot be deduced without the premise. The study is based on a corpus of (16) English examples involving inferences derived from various written speech situations in books of pragmatics. These examples are translated by 5 subjects (M. A students in the Department of Translation /College of Arts/University of Mosul). The utterances involving the respective inferences with their Arabic renderings have been analyzed in terms of “type of inference”, “what is said” (natural meaning to use Grice's 1975 terms), what is inferred (non natural meaning), and method of translation (semantic or communicative). Each text analysis is supplemented by pragmatic interpretation and translational discussion. As for the proposed rendering, the most appropriate one will be chosen. In case of subjects' failure, a new rendering will be suggested. The main findings the study arrived at is that inference is regarded a problem in translation in the SL is different from that of the TL and it depends on many elements such as the context which specifies the situation, the speaker's observance of Grice's Maxims.
Rewriting the Holy Grail: The Grail-Hero (From Arthurian Romance to Pop Culture)
Authors: Martins Ana Rita
Published: October 2024

Usually identified as the dish, plate or cup used by Jesus Christ at the Last Supper, the Holy Grail is, since the late twelfth century, a key part of the Arthurian Cycle. Although some authors (such as R.S. Loomis and J. Weston) have claimed its origin to rest in pagan traditions, the Holy Grail has become deeply intertwined with Christian myth, particularly with the legend of the Holy Chalice. In the earliest Arthurian romances, the Grail-Hero(es) had to prove himself (themselves) physically and mentally worthy of finding the Holy Grail. However, in later retellings he (they) must also be pure and spiritually perfect. In modern adaptations, though, such requirements are seemingly ignored so college professors, like Indiana Jones in Indiana Jones and the Lost Crusade (1989), may find the Holy Grail. This paper aims at analyzing the role of the Grail-Heroes in Arthurian romance, identifying their main characteristics, how they evolved as well as to reflect upon and compare their features in contemporary reinterpretations of the medieval sources.
Collocational Partitive Constructions in English-Arabic Translation
Authors: Al-Sulaimaan Misbah M. D. , Al-Juboury Rafad S. H.
Published: October 2024

The present paper concentrates on the problems translators may face with English vocabulary use, in particular, with the appropriate combinations of words. This aspect of language called collocation. Our major focus in this study will be on collocational partitive constructions and how they are realized in Arabic. This study mainly aims at: (1) specifying and studying a number of different types and patterns of collocational partitive constructions in books of grammar, semantics, as well as syntactic, semantic and cultural periodicals, (2) testing the translatability of the constructions under investigation which are linguistically and culturally different, (3) showing how these constructions are realized in Arabic, (4) pin-pointing the areas of differences between these constructions in English and Arabic, (5) specifying the method of translation that has been used by the subject translators, and (6) proposing the most appropriate and accurate rendering in case of subjects' success and giving a new one in case of subjects' failure. To achieve the above-mentioned aims, the study hypothesizes that: (1) collocational partitive constructions cannot be successfully translated into Arabic without understanding the linguistic and semantic variations as well as cultural norms of both languages, and (2) using free translation results in giving appropriate, accurate and effective renderings. The main findings the study arrived at are: (1) more than 50% have been translated freely, whereas less than 50% have been translated literally, (2) the main problems and obstacles have been found to be due to the cultural differences between the two languages, collocational partitive constructions may have more than one equivalence in Arabic, and (4) there is no one-to-one formal correspondence between English collocational partitive constructions and their Arabic counterparts whether linguistically, semantically, pragmatically or culturally.
Use of English in Nigerian Women Literacy and Globalization: A Critical Assessment
Authors: Adeniyi Folakemi Oyeyemi
Published: October 2024

The main thrust of this paper is to examine the use of English in women literacy in Nigeria as it relates to globalization with a view to identifying issues of concern. Methods of assessment involve the use of questionnaire to gather women’s opinion of their literacy development, survey of existing infrastructure and techniques of teaching, and the use of English. 1,500 women were randomly selected, using the stratified random sampling technique, across the six geopolitical regions of Nigeria. Findings reveal that more women are becoming literate but literacy among women has gone beyond just learning speaking, reading, and writing English. Women literacy currently involves learning about social networking, business strategies, political and domestic issues. Also, the Nigerian English variety and Nigerian Pidgin English are the media of instruction. Although, many literacy centres are organized privately by NGOs, a few centres are government owned. Hence, there are no structured and standard curricula. The study revealed that only 15.2 per cent of the women population is aware of the existence of any literacy programme. About the same small proportion (15.5 per cent) is aware of the existence of any literacy centres. Comparative analysis among the states shows that states in the North had relatively higher level of awareness of literacy programmes. It is recommended that more attention should be given to women literacy especially in rural areas for total involvement and curriculum standardization. It is hoped that findings from this study will be needful for policy makers, planners and other researchers in other fields of education.

Published: October 2024

This study illustrates checks using data from the sustainability and Appraisers' scale designed to make causal analysis between perceived industrial sustainability benefits and Appraisers' support. It obtained questionnaire responses from 267 Real Estate Appraisers. The study objectives are to assess the pattern and extent of the missing data; the assumptions of the multivariate normality with the bootstrap resampling; the consistencies of the slopes of change, and identify the costs that may arise from poor data quality. The work also investigates convergent, discriminant, cross boundary validities and highlights their relevance to the validity of research findings. The missing values at <10%; the normality assumption holds for the SUP, BPG, BLR constructs. Bollen-Stine bootstrap analysis could not validate the normality models for BQL, BCS, BHBV; 60 of the 109 slopes of change are consistent (p>.05). The factor loadings reliably represent the unobserved variables (p>.35) and there is sufficient evidence for convergent and discriminant validities, but cross boundary validity is not proven. Nevertheless, with appropriate data transformation, there could be no necessity for further data collection, nor a new survey of data. The study contributes to the accuracy of assessments and the interpretability of scores for testing theories.

Generational Groups in Different Countries
Authors: Sarraf Ahmad Reza Akhavan
Published: October 2024

Most studies have been conducted on different generations in the United States and other Western countries. In this case, according to the prevailing culture in these countries, there is a special grouping for generations. This grouping, which consists of four generations (Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Generation X and Generation Y), is now being used stereotyped in the major research literature in this field. But since local cultures and important historical events in different countries of the world have influenced the experiences of the people of each country, this grouping cannot be generalized to all countries of the world. The extent of this influence is such that in each geographic region and sometimes in each country we see different generational groups. This study, by examining some of the literature on generational groups in different countries, and the similarities and differences between them, has concluded that there is no way to speak of global generation groups and therefore it is necessary Prior to any generation research, generational groups of destination countries should be carefully identified and classified.

One of the most important dynasties was Safavid dynasty for translation movement. Shah Tahmasp and Shah Ismail ordered translation of some books to the translators of that period. These translated religious books were beneficial for layman Iranians to have access to Shi’ism teachings. However, the review of the related studies shows that there are limited studies on the translation history in Iran. The researcher tried to investigate the influential translators and their translations which other researchers did not survey before. The aim of the present research was to investigate the beginning of the translation movement in Safavid dynasty from 907 to 1038 A.H. This research used two models of Polysystem theory (Even-Zohar, 1990) and Bourdieu (1990a)’s model to investigate biography of translators of Safavid era and translated religious books from 907 to 1038 A.H. Because of Shia religion, some translators decided to translate religious books. The researcher found 10 influential translators and nearly 26 books which were translated from Arabic into Persian in the respective time. Translators of Safavid era were persons like Sheikh Bahai, Ali ibn-e Hassan Zavarei, Mohammad Bagher Sabzevari. The results can provide the most important translated religious books such as Al-Ehtejaj, Kashf al-Gommeh, Tafsir al-Quran, etc.
PROBLEM OF PLACE, SPACE AND PARTITION IN BHISHAM SAHNI’S NOVEL TAMAS
Authors: Rawson Jessica , Bose Hira
Published: October 2024

Human beings adapt themselves according to the environment they live in and create their own space among others for better survival in society. The geographical and societal space they acquire gives them a sense of security and a sense of belongingness. If this space is taken away by dislocating them, it leads to mental and physical vacuum which is experienced across generations. A similar problem of space can be traced back in the history of India, when the partition of the country into India and Pakistan took place. People who were living in one town from many generations were dislocated on the basis of religion they belonged to. Feeling of security and belongingness they once enjoyed was snatched from them and they became an outsider in their own country. They were forced to migrate from one place to another and were left with only alternative, to readapt themselves to create their new identity. Real accounts of such vacuums caused by partition can be seen in Bhisham Sahni’s novel Tamas. Hindu and Sikh families of Small-Town province were caught in the fury of political turmoil of Partition due to religious riots that broke out leading to massacre, suicide, abduction and rape. Peace loving people who enjoyed space in their homeland were dislocated in the name of religion. Hindus and Muslims of one town who were friends and neighbors all their life turned into enemies and fought with one another to destroy the space and identity of people on the basis of petty issues. In the proposed paper the researcher aims to analyze the effect of partition in deconstruction and reconstruction of space and the strategies adopted by characters to relocate themselves in alien environments and geographical space.

Published: October 2024

Throughout the past decade, the researchers have developed many a number of intrusion detection systems. Some of these were developed to work on host based and some were network-based intrusion detection systems. The presented systems are combination of HIDS/NIDS and signature/anomaly based, or hybrid systems. The intrusion detection system is an intelligence system known as computational intelligence. The main goal of computational intelligence is to provide solutions to complex real-world problems. An effective IDS must use more than standard mathematical techniques and conventional analysis methods combined with soft computing techniques to synergistically create a more robust IDS. In this paper, we review three important areas of research that have significant implication for proposed framework. First, we review existing shallow learning intrusion detection systems both in machine and deep learning. In the second section, we review existing hybrid intrusion detection systems. Finally, we provide some findings and analysis of the literature studies.

Machine Learning is a technique that aims to learn from data over a task based on certain performance measures. With the flooding of data and increased computational ability, machine learning algorithms have a huge research scope. The task of identifying the correct machine learning algorithm for an application is very challenging without analysing the basic information about the problem such as the domain of the undertaken problem, the features available in the data, etc. The movie industry, a huge part of entertainment industry, has seen a phenomenal growth throughout the globe in recent times. A movie can capture the attention of a viewer and can trigger cognitive and emotional processes in the brain. In this research, the emotional outcome of the viewer was analysed while they watch the movie before its actual release that is, during its preview. Traditionally Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging device was used to assess human brain activity but proved to be non-feasible and costly so EEG sensors were used to monitor and record the functioning of the brain of volunteers for further analysis. We proposed a model to use the collected data through EEG sensors were analysed using artificial neural network which was Used to find high and low of different brain waves mapping to the emotions depicted in every scene of the movie. Performance measures such as accuracy, precision and recall were calculated to validate our proposed model. Our proposed model resulted in providing assistance to movie makers who could Study the pulse of audience before the actual release and could incorporate changes if necessary.

Estos algoritmos se caracterizan por requerir menos recursos computacionales, lo que los hace más apropiados para dispositivos de bajo coste. Por lo tanto, se llevó a cabo un análisis comparativo de tres algoritmos de criptografía ligera, con un enfoque en la seguridad, rendimiento y eficiencia en dispositivos IoT con recursos limitados. Además, se evaluaron aspectos como la cantidad de cifrados y descifrados por minuto, el consumo energético y la resistencia a ataques para romper cifrados. Por otro lado, se realizaron simulaciones para verificar la seguridad y el rendimiento del sistema, y se compararon los resultados con los obtenidos en dos algoritmos criptográficos convencionales. Los resultados del estudio demuestran que la criptografía ligera es una solución viable para dispositivos IoT de bajo coste, ya que ofrece un equilibrio adecuado entre seguridad y eficiencia en términos de recursos computacionales. Estos algoritmos permiten proteger la información transmitida y almacenada en dispositivos IoT, sin comprometer el rendimiento o agotar rápidamente los recursos limitados.

The necessity for the scientific research on subcultural processes in the prisons of the Republic of Moldova
Authors: Samoilenco Victor
Published: October 2024

This article is an argument for initiating scientific studies on subcultural processes in penitentiaries of the Republic of Moldova, processes that play a key role in shaping penitentiary crime, but which are not sufficiently well reflected in official studies and statistics. The lack of control tools on the dissemination of criminal subculture in the detention environment but also its negative influence on the effect of resocialization actions, order and stability in the prison environment, as well as other important aspects of detention, determine the study of subcultural processes to be extremely current and necessary. The facilities created by the legislator for detainees in order to release them without full execution of the sentence, in order to stop overcrowding in prisons and to avoid losing cases to the ECHR, determined the release of a massive influx of convicts from detention, which makes the study of the subculture even more current, there being a risk of its exportation out of prison.

Authors: Guzun Adrian
Published: October 2024

The Basel framework for bank corporate governance is a set of international guidelines and standards established by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, which plays a crucial role in setting the corporate governance practices of banks around the world, actively contributing to improving stability, risk management and compliance with national and international regulations applicable to banks. This regulatory framework outlines the principles and requirements related to risk management, capital adequacy, internal controls, transparency of bank shareholders and customer relations, but there is a strong emphasis on board oversight, accountability and the alignment of incentives with long-term sustainability. Banks are currently implementing Basel IV - the continuation of Basel III standards, developed in response to the deficiencies in financial regulation revealed by the 2007 financial crisis, with the aim of strengthening bank capital requirements by increasing minimum capital requirements, holding high-quality liquidity and decrease in bank leverage.
