Reducing Social Inequalities through the Implementation of Effective Right to Employment: The Case of French Experiment “TZCLD”
Authors: Reysz Julien
Published: June 2024

The “Territoire Zéro Chômeur de Longue Durée” (TZCLD) project—Zero Long-Term Unemployed Territory (ZLTUT)—is an experimental initiative that has been running in France since 2016. Its aim is to fight long-term unemployment on a territorial scale by reintegrating into the labor market people who have been out of work for a long time. TZCLD (ZLTUT) is a public policy measure based on an original conception of employment and work, and on innovative tools and methods for reintegrating long-term unemployed into the labor market. This project is based on three key ideas. Firstly, “no one is unemployable.” Secondly, “there is no shortage of work.” Thirdly, “there is no shortage of money.” Respecting and articulating these three precepts make effective the right to employment. We show that this original “job guarantee” experiment helps to reduce social inequalities.

Can Turkey’s Winter Be Europe’s Spring? Turkey’s Dilemma as a Buffer State Protecting Europe from Irregular Migration
Authors: Kaya Erdem Burcu , Bilge Remzi
Published: June 2024

Europe may not realize that “buffer states” like Turkey also have the potential to become a source of migration, and this is increasing. What is the current situation and future of Turkey, which is designed as a buffer zone, and what are the implications of this future for Europe? Do European states foresee that the buffer zones they have created to save the day will allow their own citizens to reach the European border as immigrants? In this context, in order to concretize the answers to the relevant questions, a survey study is used to reveal the increase in the demand of Turkish citizens to emigrate from the state in recent years, the direction of this migration and its relationship with irregular migrants. Thus, it is aimed to make European states question their potential to turn the geographies selected as Buffer States into new countries of emigration moving towards Europe and what they will do in this case. This is because the hate speech against immigrants in Turkey and the decline in the willingness of educated Turkish citizens to stay in the state is increasing.

Published: June 2024

Fermentation is derived from a Latin word fermentum, a process of chemical changes in an organic substrate by the action of microbial enzymes. The science of fermentation is called as zymology, and the first zymologist was Louis Pasteur. Study of fermentation is called as fermentation technology. Fermenter or bioreactor is the heart of fermentation technology where the whole study is involved. It is a container with biomechanical and biochemical environment that controls the transfer of oxygen, nutrient to the cells, and metabolic products from the cells. There are different types of fermenters like stirred tank fermenter, airlift fermenter, bubble column reactor, fluidized-bed reactor, packed bed reactor, and membrane bioreactor. There are different processes such as batch, continuous, and fed batch or semi-continuous. Secondary metabolites are produced either through submerged or solid-state fermentation process during the stationary phase of an organism. These metabolites are showing a rising demand in food, cosmetics, drugs, and other industries. The production of these metabolites can be improved by strain improvement through mutagenesis and r-DNA technologies. This chapter focuses on all these areas in detail.

Introduction: Pilomatricoma is a benign adnexal dermal or subcutaneous tumor derived from immature hair matrix cells. Objectives: The aim of our study is to evaluate clinical and dermoscopic features of pilomatricomas, with a specific focus on pediatric lesions, and to provide a concise review of the existing literature. Methods: A single-center retrospective study was undertaken on 55 patients with a histopathological diagnosis of pilomatricoma referred to the Dermatology Unit, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy, between 2005 and 2023. Pilomatricomas were retrospectively evaluated relying on clinical and dermoscopic images. A PubMed search was conducted. All the relevant research up to July 31, 2023, was reviewed. We classified the cases as “typical” or “atypical” based on whether they were suspected of being pilomatricomas or not. Results: A total of 55 children with pilomatricomas.were observed and studied. Two patients presented with 2 pilomatricomas, leading to the identification of 58 pilomatricomas. Typical’ pilomatricomas were observed in 79% of cases as nodular and pigmented lesions with one or more colors, ranging from blue-gray to red to yellow/white, evident on clinical examination and even better on dermoscopy. In 21% of cases, pilomatricomas presented in an ‘atypical’ form, which did not allow for a well-founded suspicion, placing them in differential diagnosis with other lesions and therefore requiring histological examination. Conclusions: According to our case series and systematic review of the literature, clinical appearance and dermoscopy may be sufficient to diagnose or suspect pilomatricoma in around 80% of cases, while histological examination is necessary to confirm the diagnosis in the remaining 20% of cases.

Authors: Muruganandam C. , Maniraj V.
Published: June 2024

In agriculture, irrigation is essential for providing water to crops based on the type of soil they are grown in. To achieve success in farming, it is important to evaluate soil fertility, temperature, rainfall and set irrigation schedules. In this work, to enhance agricultural production, an IoT-based hydration system that utilizes soil moisture and humidity sensors to keep an eye on soil conditions and water crops precisely is developed. This system effectively manages water usage in farming, resulting in an efficient conservation of water resources. The proposed model is categorized into four main phases: (a) Pre-processing; (b) Clustering; (c) Feature extraction; (d) Classification. Initially, the collected raw data is pre-processed via a data-cleaning approach. From the pre-processed data, DB scan is used to cluster the data. From the clustered data, the important feature is extracted by using statistical features like mean, standard deviation, kurtosis, and skewness. Subsequently, from the extracted features, the most optimal features are selected via a new hybrid meta-heuristic optimization model referred to as Cuckoo search-based Levy adolescent identity search algorithm (CLAIS). The projected CLAIS model is the conceptual amalgamation of the standard Cuckoo search optimization (CSO) and adolescent identity search algorithm (AISA), respectively. CLAIS-based deep Q network (CLAIS-DQN) classifier is used to classify the optimal features. DQN is an efficient solution to offload the request optimally which improves the overall performance of the network. The proposed model is implemented using the PYTHON platform. The proposed model has recorded the highest detection accuracy as 96%.

Authors: Choudhary Gunjan , Srivastava Anupriya Roy
Published: June 2024

An identity crisis, a term devised by Erik Erikson, is a phase of rigorous study of different means of looking at oneself. Modern Indian English writers have been in the pursuit to restore order and meaning in their lives, especially the women. Women writers have presented their women protagonists as the one who are taking control of their lives, eventually, with or without the support of their family. Samina Ali is one such writer, who explores the identity of her characters in a Muslim community. The novel, Madras on Rainy Days determines the identity of a contemporary Muslim woman protagonist, Layla who is torn between her liberated life in the USA versus her controlling life in India. She faces several difficulties as she cannot be her independent self. She’s forcefully married to Sameer, whose real identity is revealed later by the end of the story. In search of her own home and identity, Layla chooses to stay in India as a brave and enlightened single woman rather than moving out to free America with her gay husband. This paper tends to discover in the text that how a character deals with the fluctuating notion of identity, by breaking free from the shackles of the dominating society.

Evaluation of white seeded sesame (Sesamum indicium L.) genotypes on growth and yield performance in Menit Goldya Woreda of West Omo Zone, SWE
Authors: Legesse Tewoderos , Bekelech Sharew
Published: June 2024

Sesame is the second export crop next to coffee in annual export, indicating the highest 14% of the total world export of the crop. In Africa, Sudan is the major sesame producer, followed by Nigeria, Somalia, Uganda and Ethiopia. But lack of well-adapted varieties are one of the bottleneck production problems that account for low yield and small areas cropped to the nation. Thus it is essential to evaluate such genotypes, which have high yield potential and are suitable to local environmental conditions. Therefore, field experiments were conducted at west Omo zone during 2019/20 main cropping seasons at one location of West- the Omo zone, southwest Ethiopia. The location was Menit Goldiya districts of West Omo Zone, through evaluation and selection of high-yielding sesame varieties. The study comprised of five improved and one local sesame varieties laid out in RCBD with three replications at each location. The growth and yield data were collected and analyzed by using SAS Version 9.3 statistical software. The result of the study revealed that all of the parameters considered were significantly (p < 0.01) affected by varieties on both years. Accordingly, at Menit Goldiya for, all parameters in both years and the combined analysis over the years indicated that maximum plant height, number of primary branches per plant, number of capsules per plant, thousand seed weights in grams and seed yield were observed for the Humera-1 variety. Likewise, the shortest days to flowering, early maturing, the highest length of capsule bearing zone, the maximum number of capsules per plant, the highest number of seeds per capsule and the maximum seed yield (8.13 Qu/ha) were observed for the Humera-1 variety in 2019/2020 growing seasons. Based on the mean total seed yield of locations and different yield evaluation methods, a high-yielding variety was identified. Accordingly, the Humera-1 variety performed best on both years. Therefore, this variety can play a vital role in food self-sufficiency and food security of the south-western region and it should be widely distributed to farmers of the testing locations and similar areas of the region.
Animal cruelty legislation in India: A green criminological exploration
Authors: Bhagawati Parismita , Dey Paramita
Published: June 2024

We see laws being constantly updated responding to the onslaught of changing times and circumstances and value settings of society. However, such dynamism in the legal spectrum appears to be lopsided once laws on animal cruelty are glanced over. Laws on animal cruelty seem to be following a pattern that is not so dynamic and abreast of the evolving moral compass of society. It is critically observed in the course of this research that much like the legislation preventing animal cruelty, cruelty against animals, ironically, exhibits an upward graph. In pursuit of resolving this irony, especially in the context of India, the aim of this paper is to explore the concept of ‘animal cruelty’ within the Indian animal protection legislation to identify substantive and conceptual gaps while situating the statutes within the theoretical perspective of green criminology. The paper explores and critiques the concept of ‘animal cruelty’ within the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act of 1960. The research exercise reveals that the laws display a strong hue of anthropocentric instrumentalism denigrating animals as commodities in service to humans. The statutes under study allow for a wide array of abuse towards animals, permitting those harms as necessary suffering. The grandest of the lacunae is the absence of provisions for protecting animals from sexual and psychological violence. This green criminological exposé is supplemented, in conclusion, by valuable insights and remedies sourced from the green criminological theory itself in the form of a radical deconstruction and rethinking of how animals are treated in legal practice and ways to expand our notion to a non-specialist understanding of crimes, victims and justice.

To feel more rooted in their history and culture, young people want to read legendary stories. Popular fiction's newest, thriving genre is mythology. Fiction that appeals to the public and speaks to their ambitions and aspirations is referred to as popular fiction. The narrative of mythical tales has changed because of writers like Amish Tripathi who have identified with the reading public's pulse. With his Ram Chandra Series, Tripathi has taken legendary figures and given them a human face without diminishing their grandeur. He uses a combination of myth, logic, and fantasy to build his tales. When one looks at Indian mythology, Raavan, a character who primarily appears in the Epic of the Ramayana is generally acknowledged as one of the notable and prominent figures from India's ancient past. Raavan: Enemy of Aryavarta by Amish Tripathi makes the case that villains are not born but rather develop over time. But instead, someone triggers them in trying circumstances. In mythology, Raavan is He created Ravanahatha because he was regarded as a great devotee of Lord Shiva. He is a person who is completely gifted, and his dedication to his profession has allowed him to reach the highest points in his life. Raavan is willing to give his life to protect his people, demonstrating his love for all Lankans. Raavan is praised in the press as a charming character. The essay aims to celebrate Raavan as a source of inspiration for young people. The purpose of this paper is to explain Raavan's characters and show how young people might be motivated by them. This essay's goal is to comprehend Raavan's life, how his predicament turned him into a villain, and how his traits influenced modern culture.

The study involved the assessment of various characteristics such as Arithmetic mean roughness (Ra), Root mean square roughness (Rq), and Ten Point height roughness (Rz) using the Talysurf apparatus. The findings indicate that as the depth of cut increases, there is a corresponding increase in cutting time and a decrease in roughness values. Based on the findings, it can be inferred that the nanofluid solutions that were created have the potential to serve as effective cutting fluids in the metal cutting process.
PROMONTORY DIFFERENTIATIONS: PAINTING LIKE A POSTHUMAN
Authors: Mukherjee Siddhartha
Published: June 2024

This article aims to establish the conceptual contexts related to humanism and discuss a theoretical analysis of posthumanism in the field of arts, with a particular focus on ‘Surrealism’. In surrealism/surreal art, the human is transfigured into the posthuman. To flesh out this schematic, I have examined how in surrealist artworks the posthuman emerges by radically reconfiguring human bodies/minds. The triumph of surface over depth is best embodied in both humanism and its modern antithesis, posthumanism. Rooted in Plato, Aristotle and the Old Testament, humanism depicted hierarchical structures of all matter and life, even God; and themes from Christianity were the central concept driving art in Renaissance Europe. Surrealist artists, including most notably Max Ernst, Yves Tanguy and Rene Magritte produced paintings that enmesh humans into integrated circuits, reflecting posthuman alienation of the earlier negentropic centers of art. The ontological dimension of visual art is a crucial issue, when it comes to a proper understanding of the posthuman agenda. Humans are information-processing machines while posthumanism is a non-normative critical stance that rests on a constructivist paradigm of cultural hegemony and postmodernism. This paper further investigates what posthumanism might be, given that it cannot be isolated from the dynamics of surrealism from which it is wrought.
