Quantitatively Assessing Climate Resilience Capacities and Vulnerabilities Among Rural Smallholder Farmers in Nigeria
Authors: Ogunmodede Peace
Published: February 2024

Climate change threatens vulnerable smallholder farmers in rural areas across Nigeria. While increasing climate resilience is important, there are few quantitative studies of community resilience. This study addressed this gap by analysing and comparing the climate resilience of 300 smallholder farmers each in Enugu and Oyo states of Nigeria using the Resilience Capacity Index is much higher. Regression modelling showed positive associations of higher resiliency education, access to agricultural extension, climate information processing, disaster preparedness, and agricultural preparedness The qualitative interviews differentiated data of relevance, resulting in higher scores in Oyo in conjunction with climate awareness agricultural systems, infrastructure, social capital and climate risk awareness Associated scores and socio-economic factors indicate a big difference, especially in Enugu. Interventions designed to strengthen smallholder climate resilience will focus on education, adaptation training, early warning systems, infrastructure development, access to credit and on social capital. The community resilience measurement approach provides a valuable model for resilience assessment and monitoring in climate sensitive communities across the region
Dependent Interconnecting Realities

Published: February 2024

The coffee industry is an interesting major in the economic aspects, which can present one of the huge industries on earth, regarding this the packaging of these products is a complete separated process which requires a certain suitable design. This study has focused on the main coffee packaging aspects such as the color, material used, typography, and graphics of these packs regarding three coffee types. As this study research has taken place within the region of northern Cyprus (TRNC), among several local packs a set of twenty three local coffee packs have been collected in regards for the study, as well as sixteen imported coffee packs have been also intergrade. The study methodology based on an observation aspect such as an assessment table has been implemented to have an observation scope of the study, as well as two sets of online tools have been involved to generate the color pallet of each involved coffee pack in the study, even the second online two was an AI tool that generated and reads the used font type within a certain limits. A comparison has been addressed to this study, Turkish coffee, Filtered Coffee and Espresso coffee types were integrated at the base of locally and Imported coffee packs. The study shows simple approaches were integrated within the imported coffee packs regarding the color and packaging aspects, while local coffee packs showed a good representation expect for the usage of for set of fonts and extreme graphics were integrated as well the imported coffee used a cartoon based material while the local coffee packs concentrated on the materialized film packs.
“In Search of Special Sensations”: Moïse (Maurice) Zekri's Disorderly Life between Algeria and France (1879–1942)
Authors: Choquette Leslie , Sienna Noam
Published: February 2024

This article presents the biography of a little-known Algerian Jew, Moïse (Maurice) Zekri (1879–1942), whose life illuminates several themes not normally associated with Algerian Jewry or French colonial history. An immigrant to Paris who opened one of the city's first gay venues, Maurice's Bar, in 1906, he also contributed to the rise of international organized crime in Montmartre, a development more commonly attributed to Corsicans. While based in Paris, Zekri traveled widely (to England, Belgium, Italy, Argentina, and the United States) and maintained close ties with Algeria, where he returned periodically. His social and professional circles included a diverse cohort of people ethnically and religiously, but his Jewish roots defined the end of his life. During the German Occupation of France, he was deported from his Paris home to Drancy, and in 1942, he was murdered in Auschwitz.
“Among the French People”: The Departmentalization of Mayotte and the Colonial Politics of Inclusion
Authors: Diagne Dimitri
Published: February 2024

With its 2011 change in administrative status, Mayotte, a small island colony in the Mozambique Channel, became the only contemporary French department with an indigenous African Muslim population. Mayotte's departmentalization required restructuring a colonial local legal system influenced by Islamic, Swahili, and Malagasy legal practices. By putting legislation and public discourse concerning Mayotte's status into conversation with earlier political movements within the French Empire and scholarship on French colonial governance, I show how Mahoran politicians, writers, and activists advocating for departmentalization invoked claims to racialized notions of belonging “among the French People.” These claims were joined by demands that France fulfill its Republican promise by granting juridicopolitical inclusion to a colonial population. These distinct but related political discourses illuminate central features of the mutually constitutive relationship between law, race, and citizenship in the French Republic.
Les fonds africains de l'Institut national de l'audiovisuel français, entre angoisse épistémologique et potentiel historiographique
Authors: Losch Flora
Published: February 2024

Que sont devenus les enregistrements audiovisuels réalisés par la France en Afrique durant la période coloniale et la décolonisation ? Et à qui appartiennent-ils ? Partant de ces questions et d'un cheminement au sein des collections numérisées de l'Institut national de l'audiovisuel français (Ina), cet article propose de s'intéresser à une archive coloniale peu étudiée. En tant qu'archive-sujet, celle-ci constitue un lieu d'analyse stimulant de l'histoire coloniale, qui ne demande qu’à être investi par les historiens de la colonisation et les archivistes postcoloniaux.
Une ville-mine d'Algérie par les archives de ses protagonistes (Aïn Mokra, mi-XIXe siècle—fin XIXe siècle) : Jalons d'une micro-histoire en situation coloniale
Authors: Plarier Antonin , Guillopé Thierry
Published: February 2024

En 1845, les premières concessions minières en Algérie sous domination coloniale sont attribuées à une poignée de patrons français. Parmi ceux-ci, Jules Talabot, bientôt relayé par son frère Léon Talabot, prend possession du gisement d'Aïn Mokra situé à quelques kilomètres du port de Bône / Annaba. Après un début fastidieux, le site est mis en exploitation à une échelle industrielle au cours de la décennie 1860. Jusqu’à la fin du XIXe siècle, le site attire des travailleurs de tous les horizons méditerranéens. Algériens, Italiens, Français, Espagnols, Maltais, et Tunisiens s'y pressent, y travaillent, y vivent ou y meurent. Leurs statuts sont variés tant vis-à-vis de la citoyenneté française que dans leur rapport au travail. Les formes de travail contraint coexistent avec celles du travail libre. Ces migrations ne sont pas seulement masculines puisque des femmes travaillent aussi sur le site dans une division genrée du travail. Le site d'Aïn Mokra se présente alors comme un observatoire d'un XIXe siècle autant colonial qu'industriel que cet article se propose d'explorer dans une démarche micro-historique.
Relationship Between Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Accounting Variables According to the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis
Authors: Machado dos Santos Lucas José , Ribeiro Maísa de Souza , Kouloukoui Daniel
Published: February 2024

Objective: Considering that entities' activities are reflected and represented in their financial-accounting statements, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between greenhouse gas emissions and the entities' operating income and the accounting variables net intangible, amortization, net property, plant and equipment, depreciation, and research and development (R&D), considering the environmental Kuznets curve. 
Method: Application of panel regression on a sample of 682 companies from 40 countries belonging to 11 different sectors, which disclosed their scope 1 GHG emissions from 2012 to 2019 in the Thomson Reuters Refinitiv Eikon database.
Results: The results indicate a relationship between GHG emissions, as predicted by the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis (EKCH). These emissions graphically draw an inverted U-shaped curve, in which, due to the scale effect, there is an increase in greenhouse gas emissions as the entity's operating income increases. However, according to the composition effect, as companies use a greater amount of net intangibles and fewer net property, plant and equipment (captured by the "depreciation" variable), their emissions decrease. Nevertheless, with the technique effect, it was not possible to identify a significant relationship with GHG emissions.
Contributions: This understanding of the relationship between accounting variables and greenhouse gas emissions can help regulatory bodies in developing metrics and disclosure standards for climate-related business information, improving quality, comparability and their reliability. This fact can influence the assessment of the value of entities when considering the risks and opportunities related to their environmental impacts.
Integralidad de funciones: hacia la universidad necesaria
Authors: Macchiarola Viviana
Published: February 2024

La integralidad universitaria en una categoría conceptual y una práctica que, si bien no es nueva, ha cobrado notable fuerza en las universidades de América Latina en los últimos años. La primera parte del artículo analiza el concepto de integralidad desde la perspectiva de la extensión crítica, concibiéndola como diálogo entre funciones, actores, conocimientos y saberes para abordar los problemas del territorio. Luego, discute las rupturas que esta innovación institucional y socioepistemológica supone, analizando los supuestos acerca del conocimiento y los códigos institucionales que se modifican. Más adelante, se describen algunos avances realizados en la Universidad Nacional de Río Cuarto en dirección hacia la integralidad. Por último, se analizan algunos límites y condiciones —académicas, organizativas, pedagógicas, políticas y, en especial, culturales— necesarias para construir viabilidad a la integralidad, teniendo en cuenta las lecciones aprendidas.

Authors: Reyna María Lucila , Theiler Julieta María , Angeloni Marcos Exequiel
Published: February 2024

La integralidad de funciones universitarias es un tema de discusión en la comunidad académica latinoamericana y que se viene promoviendo desde diferentes ámbitos debido a los beneficios que trae implementarla. En el presente artículo compartimos los resultados de un estudio exploratorio realizado por el área Integración de Funciones de la Secretaría de Extensión y Cultura de la Universidad Nacional del Litoral. El mismo buscó conocer el estado situacional de la integralidad de las tres funciones en dicha institución a partir del análisis de entrevistas efectuadas a docentes extensionistas e investigadores y a responsables de gestión de sus unidades académicas, en las que se les preguntó cómo comprenden el proceso integrador y si participan en experiencias de este tipo. Además, hacemos un recorrido por las condiciones institucionales que permiten implementarla en la Universidad y presentamos los dispositivos a través de los que se instrumentaliza.
La planificación universitaria desde la integralidad. Notas en torno a un proceso en marcha en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la Universidad de Buenos Aires
Authors: Petz Ivanna
Published: February 2024

En este trabajo se aborda la integralidad como idea–fuerza desde la cual se ha planificado la gestión del centro de extensión territorializado de la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la Universidad de Buenos Aires y la curricularización de la extensión mediante los Seminarios de Prácticas Socioeducativas Territorializadas. Las definiciones de política académica adoptadas implican un conjunto de mediaciones y dinámicas de gestión universitaria que se encuentran en el marco mayor de la educación superior como política pública, anclan en la experiencia histórica institucional y desafían las formas occidentales en que son pensadas y organizadas las unidades académicas. Así, la integralidad, en el caso de Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, configura un conjunto de múltiples movimientos interrelacionados y profundamente imbricados que superan con amplitud la integración de la extensión, docencia e investigación.
Prácticas Académicas Solidarias: estrategias y desafíos para promover la extensión de estudiantes en la Universidad Nacional del Litoral
Authors: Rebollo Sabrina , Serrano Lionel
Published: February 2024

El Programa de Voluntariado Universitario de la Universidad Nacional del Litoral se creó en el año 2004 tomando como antecedente inmediato la actuación universitaria en la trágica inundación de Santa Fe en 2003.El avance del Programa generó discusiones internas en torno al sentido y la pertinencia del término “voluntariado” en el ámbito académico. Se requería vincular el compromiso social con el conocimiento académico en instancias de aprendizaje, en consonancia con los enfoques y políticas de extensión establecidas por la Universidad. Así, se redefinió el término y se identificaron dos tipos de prácticas: Prácticas Académicas Solidarias y Prácticas Solidarias.El artículo brinda un panorama de 20 años de trabajo en los que la comunidad estudiantil se constituye en uno de los actores centrales de estas prácticas. Diagnósticos, estrategias y desafíos procuran estimular este tipo de experiencias que apuestan a la formación integral a la vez que contribuyen a la sociedad.
Defeating the Problem of Evil with Evil
Authors: Miksa Rad
Published: February 2024

I argue that the creation and freely chosen salvation and everlasting bliss of even just one person is a greater good than any finite amount of evil and suffering. Since it is extremely likely (if not certain) that, out of all possible individuals that could exist, some (or at least one) would only be freely saved through the contemplation and experience of evil and suffering, then God would be justified in creating a world with evil and suffering to allow for the salvation of such individuals, so long as no one else freely lost their salvation who otherwise would not have lost it because of the evil and suffering. Thus, the problem of evil dissipates, as a world with evil and suffering, even seemingly gratuitous evil and suffering, would be entirely expected given theism.
Physical Disability School Performance Impact Model
Authors: Coleman Mari Beth , Smith Cate C. , Baldwin Joni L.
Published: February 2024

In this manuscript, we present a theoretical model of the impact factors that can affect school performance for students with physical disabilities. The model proposes that students’ performance is affected by biological or inherent characteristics, home and community factors,  and instructional factors.  These factors are further impacted by systemic educational barriers.  We provide a diagram and description of the overall model as well as an expanded diagram and description of each type of impact.  Our purpose for presenting the model is to raise awareness for educational teams regarding the complex needs of students with physical disabilities in order to inform educational planning.

Diante isso, observa-se a necessidade de que surjam pesquisas futuras para a análise do protótipo com condições mais intensas de atividades sendo realizadas.
Online Learning and Professional Development for Faculty and Staff at Makerere University in Uganda
Authors: Nabushawo Harriet Mutambo , Aguti Jessica Norah
Published: February 2024

The study set out to establish why the uptake of e-learning among faculty at Makerere University is low in spite of numerous efforts by the university to scaffold staff by putting in place appropriate policies, infrastructure and supporting staff trainings through higher degrees, short courses and workshops. The main research question that guided the study was to establish the contribution of training in eLearning in transforming academic staff practices in course design, delivery and assessment. In order to understand the current academic staff’s pedagogical practices and how these have been influenced by the training in eLearning that has been conducted over the years, the study utilized mixed research approaches to gather data from faculty, university administrators and students. The results indicate that majority of faculty at Makerere University have received training in elearning to enable them to transform their pedagogical practices however, the delay in the uptake of e-learning is tagged to heavy workload, inadequate motivation for e-content development process and inadequate opportunities continuous professional development. Looking at the few available courses on the institutional Learning Management System (LMS) revealed that courses are not well designed to support online learning because they are not interactive in nature. While using interactivity model to check on the quality of the courses online, the study established that all the courses on the LMS are at level one of interactivity, which does not give students a high degree of interaction (Gutierrez 2012). Most of the course shells have just course outlines and reading materials in form of PowerPoint presentations, PDF files, journal articles, videos and Audios. The study therefore concluded that as much as online pedagogy is making inroads at Makerere University, it is a relatively new mode of study and therefore there is need for continuous sensitisation and training of both staff and students so as to acquire the necessary skills, knowledge and attitudes for effective adoption of eLearning.
Complex dynamics of a four-species food-web model: An analysis through Beddington-DeAngelis functional response in the presence of additional food
Authors: Rani Surbhi , Gakkhar Sunita , Singh Anuraj
Published: February 2024

The four-dimensional food-web system consisting of two prey species for a generalist middle predator and a top predator is proposed and investigated. The middle predator is predating over both the prey species with a modified Holling type-II functional response. The food-web model is effectively formulated, exhibits bounded behavior, and displays dissipative dynamics. The proposed model’s essential dynamical features are studied regarding local stability. We investigated the four species’ survival and established their persistence criteria. In the proposed model, a transcritical bifurcation occurs at the axial equilibrium point. The numerical simulations reveal the persistence of a chaotic attractor or stable focus. The conclusion is that increasing the food available to the middle predator may make it possible to manage and mitigate the chaos within the food chain.
Bounds on Cheeger–Gromov invariants and simplicial complexity of triangulated manifolds
Authors: Lim Geunho , Weinberger Shmuel
Published: February 2024

We show the existence of linear bounds on Wall 𝜌-invariants of PL manifolds, employing a new combinatorial concept of 𝐺-colored polyhedra.
As an application, we show how the number of h-cobordism classes of manifolds simple homotopy equivalent to a lens space with 𝑉 simplices and the fundamental group of

Z
n

\mathbb{Z}_{n}

grows in 𝑉.
Furthermore, we count the number of homotopy lens spaces with bounded geometry in 𝑉.
Similarly, we give new linear bounds on Cheeger–Gromov 𝜌-invariants of PL manifolds endowed with a faithful representation also.
A key idea is to construct a cobordism with a linear complexity whose boundary is

π
1

\pi_{1}

-injectively embedded, using relative hyperbolization.
As an application, we study the complexity theory of high-dimensional lens spaces.
Lastly, we show the density of 𝜌-invariants over manifolds homotopy equivalent to a given manifold for certain fundamental groups.
This implies that the structure set is not finitely generated.
Heat Treatment, Microstructure, Hardness and Corrosion Resistance of Martensitic Stainless Steel X65Cr13 (1.4037)
Authors: Rosemann P. , Sieber P. , Kukuk L. D. , Roßberg S. , Betke U. , Hütter S. , Jakob P. , Sehnert K.
Published: February 2024

The corrosion resistance of martensitic stainless steels is influenced by the alloy composition and the heat treatment. It is known that the proportion of chromium carbides in the microstructure and the resulting hardness are influenced by the heat treatment (austenitization temperature and duration, cooling rate, deep freezing, tempering temperature). The connection between carbon content, the exact heat treatment parameters and corrosion resistance of martensitic stainless steels with 13 wt.% chromium is only known for lower carbon contents (X20Cr13, X46Cr13). This paper is therefore dedicated to the steel X65Cr13, which is used in particular for razor blades. Materials research results are presented that show the influence of hardening on microstructure, hardness and corrosion resistance. It is shown that the steel X65Cr13 has only limited corrosion resistance due to its high carbon content, which can be attributed to the presence of chromium carbides and local chromium depletion in the microstructure. It is also clear that higher austenitizing temperatures and durations as well as high cooling rates lead to an improvement in corrosion resistance. However, this approach also causes retained austenite, which still has to be converted into martensite by deep freezing after quenching.
A plant cyclic nonapeptide of orbitide type: an electron density study
Authors: Luger Peter , Dittrich Birger , Schmidt Heinz-Jürgen
Published: February 2024

The electron density distribution (EDD) of a plant cyclic nonapeptide of orbitide type was studied. Crystal X-ray diffraction data was obtained from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) and refitted using scattering factors of the invariom library, thereby providing aspherical electron density. Bond topological, atomic properties and molecular surfaces (electrostatic potential and Hirshfeld surfaces) were derived. The partial double bond character of the peptide bond was confirmed by the ellipticity ε = 0.25. For eight N–H⋯O hydrogen bonds, atomic charges of contributing atoms differ depending on the type of the accepting oxygen atom. Atomic charge differences between negative main and positive side chains of this nonapeptide result in characteristic features of the electrostatic potential, which shows a positive isosurface around the molecule leading to repulsive interactions in the solid state structure. Weak intermolecular interactions are indicated by insignificant ED concentrations on the Hirshfeld surface except for weak signals at sites of intermolecular N–H⋯O and C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
“Grim, metal darlings”
Authors: Scribner Abby
Published: February 2024

Abby Scribner, “‘Grim, metal darlings’: The Automated Women of Charlotte Brontë’s Shirley” (pp. 257–285)

In this essay, I argue that Charlotte Brontë’s industrial novel Shirley details the consequences of the Marxist critique of industrial subjectivity in the feminized domestic and sexual realms. It does so by showing how structures of repetition—familiar from many accounts of mechanized male subjectivity in the mid-Victorian period—shape the subjective forms of three of its female characters: Caroline Helstone, the domestic woman; Miss Mann, the old maid; and Mrs. Pryor, the mother. By focusing on female automatons in a novel putatively about the Luddite riots, Shirley introduces a tension into its own conservative ideal of the domestic sphere as the compensatory counterpart to the world of work. Despite its overt adherence to paternalism as the solution to social unrest, the novel gestures at an understanding of the home as a space that partakes of one of the major structures of capitalist modernity—repetition as dehumanizing, dysfunctional, and exploitative.

Pristup integriranog učenja uz pokret u predškolskim ustanovama – prikaz i analiza primjera iz prakse
Authors: Vidaković Samaržija Donata , Vuković Maja
Published: February 2024

Kretanje je biotička potreba koju dijete nagonski počinje uspostavljati već od najranije dobi. Stjecanje i usavršavanje različitih načina kretanja doprinosi cjelovitom motoričkom razvoju, te stjecanju motoričkih kompetencija koje omogućuju učinkovito sudjelovanje u raznim organiziranim i neorganiziranim tjelesnim aktivnostima. Kretanje je važno ne samo s aspekta motoričkog razvoja, već je važno i s aspekta kognitivnog razvoja, poboljšanja pamćenja, razvoja govora, te psihičkog razvoja, stoga je različite biotičke načine kretanja vrlo važno razvijati i usavršavati već od najranije dobi.Tijekom boravka u predškolskim ustanovama djeca su pretežno u sjedilačkim aktivnostima, te je njihova mogućnost za uspostavljanjem različitih načina kretanja u različitim uvjetima često uskraćena. Integrirano učenje uz pokret kao segment suvremenog kurikula spada u najkvalitetnije pristupe neposrednog rada u svakodnevnom odgojno-obrazovnom procesu. Ono doprinosi povećanju razine kretanja djece tijekom boravka u predškolskim ustanovama, a temelji se na kreiranju poticajnih okruženja u kojima djeca samostalno i neovisno istražuju, te konstruiraju različita iskustva i znanja. Poticajne aktivnosti djeci pružaju mogućnost da spontano i samostalno uspostavljaju pokret. U radu je istaknuta važnost integriranog učenja uz pokret, te je istaknut njegov doprinos cjelovitom razvoju djeteta. Ta-kođer su prikazani i opisani različiti načini poticajnih okruženja koji se mogu implementirati u svakodnevnom radu u predškolskim ustanovama. Provedeno je i pilot-istraživanje s ciljem implementacije različitih poticajnih okruženja koja potiču integrirano učenje uz pokret, te praćenja razine zainteresiranosti. Na temelju svakodnevih opažanja došlo se do spoznaja o razini zainteresiranosti djece za različitim vrstama poticajnih aktivnosti koja je bila visoka. Osim toga primjetno je povećanje razine kretanja djece tijekom boravka u predškolskoj ustanovi.

How to make a SPE resolution strategy work in the EU
Authors: Nowak Christian , von Preuschen-von Lewinski Anna Elisabeth Freiin
Published: February 2024

When dealing with the resolution of a banking group under EU regulation there are two different approaches: Single point of entry (SPE) versus Multiple Point of Entry (MPE). In a MPE strategy, the resolution authority is taking separate resolution actions at the level of individual legal entities of the group. In a SPE strategy, the resolution authority is taking a resolution action at the level of a single entity, usually the parent undertaking, which, consequently, becomes the so called “resolution entity” building together with its subsidiaries the “resolution group”.

The general idea in a SPE strategy is, that losses at subsidiary level are first streamed up to the parent undertaking (resolution entity), i. e. capital is streamed down from the parent undertaking to the subsidiary to cover its losses and ensure its recapitalisation. This leads to losses at the resolution entity level, which, if the resolution entity meets the conditions for resolution, are taken care of by applying resolution tools to the resolution entity. This procedure is not necessarily a two-step approach but could also be completed in one go. In the following, we focus on different ways to upstream losses from the subsidiary to the parent undertaking and to recapitalise the subsidiary.
Bank Failure and Corporate Insolvency Law: Similarities and Differences
Authors: Gullo Alessandro , Emre Ender
Published: February 2024

It is well-established that managing the failure of banks requires a special legal regime. While retaining the specificities of such regime is key to preserve financial stability and more broadly public interest, bank failure proceedings operate in the broader legal infrastructure of a country, where corporate insolvency regimes have a key role. This chapter examines at high-level some institutional, substantive and procedural areas where bank failure proceedings and corporate insolvency frameworks interact.

The second Panel of the SRB’s Legal Conference, moderated by the SRB General Counsel Karl-Philipp Wojcik, focused on the possible interferences between the resolution framework and the protection of fundamental rights as embedded in the EU Charter of Fundamental rights (the Charter) the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and its protocols. The panellists also picked up case law developments regarding those interferences before both the European Court of Justice (ECJ), and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR).
The respect of Fundamental Rights in the EU bank resolution legal framework
Authors: Stancanelli Paolo , Menéndez Fernández Alejandro
Published: February 2024

The shift in bank resolution paradigm towards bail-in has repercussions over those who see their sphere of fundamental rights affected by measures adopted in the name of the public good. The EU bank resolution framework is sensitive to these concerns, and seeks to reconcile the private and public interests at stake – at times, a difficult pursuit.
Panel III – Cross-Border Bank Resolutions and its challenges
Authors: Fernandez Badia Yago
Published: February 2024

The third Panel of the SRB Legal Conference, moderated by Tuija Taos, focused on various aspects of cross-border bank resolutions and how events have shown that a banking crisis can occur very quickly. There was consensus on the importance of being very well prepared to react with the same speed. Authorities and institutions must have solid plans and always be prepared for the unexpected. This was the first time since 2008 that a global systemically important bank was under severe stress and the resolution framework was put to the test. When facing cross-border bank resolutions, legal regimes need to be credible and workable. There is no doubt that the authorities currently have the necessary powers and tools.
Cross-Border Bank Resolutions and its Challenges
Authors: Morais Luis Domingos Silva
Published: February 2024

This article comprehends a very selective analysis of some aspects deemed of extreme relevance to ensure effective cross-border resolution strategies, dealing with global systemically important banks G-SIBS, and also involving financial institutions with no systemic dimension but which operate in multiple jurisdictions. It is discussed, namely, the fact that G-SIBS, as Credit Suisse, and other multi-jurisdictional groups, highlight critical issues of resolution planning when dealing with several jurisdictions. Secondly, this analysis also highlights particular problems in implementing cross-border resolution strategies to be applied to some banking sub-sectors, namely as regards the case study of cooperative banks, which are an important part of the European financial landscape. Thirdly, the article briefly addresses some critical issues of bail-in when dealing with private actors from different jurisdictions.

This overall analysis starts from a critical discussion of the financial turmoil of March 2023, debating if this might have affected the relevance and credibility of resolution regimes.

China has experienced frequent natural disasters, including droughts, floods, and heavy snowfall. This study discusses the temporal-spatial patterns in the country since 1500. The intensity of drought in Henan and Inner Mongolia was higher than that in Guizhou and Qinghai, while little difference in flood intensity was observed among these provinces. The intensity of snow disasters in Qinghai was much higher. Except for the slightly decreasing drought trend in Henan, the three natural disasters showed a significant increase over time. Drought disasters in Guizhou, Henan, and Qinghai showed few seasonal differences, whereas those in Inner Mongolia mostly occurred in winter and spring. Floods were concentrated during the summer, while snow disasters occurred mainly during winter and spring. According to the Mann–Kendall (M–K) test, the seasonal differences in disaster trends in Guizhou, Henan, and Qinghai were unclear and similar to the overall trend. However, the disaster trends in Inner Mongolia showed seasonal differences. The spatial distribution of natural disasters in Guizhou and Henan were similar, and their changing trends were extremely scattered, while in Inner Mongolia and Qinghai, they were clustered. The spatial distribution of disaster intensity had few seasonal differences and was similar to the overall distribution. However, when considering the spatial distribution of disaster trends by season, seasonal differences were evident. This study has provided an earlier signal on how to prevent and mitigate natural disasters based on 500 years' tempo-spatial pattern, and the measures on how to improve the management practices of natural hazards under climate change were also suggested.
Immediate implant in the esthetic area when immediate loading is not an option: a clinical case report

Aims: Tooth extraction in the frontal area is associated with significant bone resorption, especially at sockets presenting with a thin buccal wall, such as most of the maxillary incisors. In the case of favorable residual hard and soft tissue anatomy, immediate implant placement in the esthetic area might be an opportunity to drive the alveolus healing course in the desired direction. Case presentation: In this clinical case, a fractured upper central incisor was replaced by an immediate two-piece implant covered with a healing screw. After 3 months, the implant was restored. The facial and interdental soft tissue was maintained with appreciable success at the 3-year follow-up visit. Conclusion: When immediate loading of the implant is not an option and the fresh extraction socket presents with fair soft tissue quality, the use of an interim healing screw might help sustain and prevent the shrinkage of peri-implant tissues. This simple technique might be a valuable option when there is no indication for adjunctive hard or soft tissue grafting or immediate loading feasibility conditions.
Poesía y justicia racial en «Elegía a Emmett Till», de Nicolás Guillén
Authors: De Moura Isaque
Published: February 2024

Escrita en homenaje al joven afroamericano asesinado en 1955 en la región de Money, Mississippi, «Elegía a Emmett Till» constituye un importante registro de la producción poética de Nicolás Guillén, tanto por su relevancia histórica y estética como por establecer un diálogo directo con la agencia racial del escritor cubano, quien es ampliamente reconocido por su tradición literaria de compromiso social y político. Partiendo de una breve contextualización de las circunstancias del crimen, en diálogo con las complejas experiencias raciales de la realidad social norteamericana, este artículo analiza algunos aspectos temáticos y estilísticos de la composición de la elegía al examinar cómo Guillén articula imágenes y metáforas para transmitir su mensaje de duelo por Emmett Till y de denuncia contra las opresiones históricas sufridas por la población afrodescendiente en Estados Unidos. El análisis propuesto pretende no solo ofrecer interpretaciones para una comprensión crítica del poema y sus elecciones discursivas, sino también reflexionar sobre su significado como expresión artística de la lucha por la igualdad y la justicia socio-racial.
Identification of a new HLA-A*0201-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte epitope from TC2N

Published: February 2024

Identification of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes from tumor related antigens is a promising approach for malignant tumor immunotherapy. TC2N, a recently identified tumor associated antigen from human glioblastoma, is regarded as a promising target of tumor-specific immunotherapy. As one of the most widely used histocompatibility molecules in Chinese is HLA-A*0201, we were able to identify the TC2N peptides that are provided by this molecular type. A panel of antigenic peptides produced from TC2N were predicted by using a computer tool. The binding affinities of three peptides with the highest predicted score to the HLA-A*0201 molecule were evaluated after synthesis. In vitro and in vivo stimulation of the main T-cell response against the predicted peptides. The results demonstrated that TC2N (152-160) was able to release IFN-γ and lyse U251 cells in vitro as well as in vivo by eliciting peptide-specific CTLs. Our results indicated that peptide TC2N (152-160) (RLYGSVCDL) was a novel HLA-A2.1-restricted CTL epitope capable of inducing TC2N specific CTLs in vitro. As TC2N might qualify as a viable target for immunotherapeutic approaches for patients with GBM, we speculated that the newly identified epitope RLYGSVCDL would be of potential use in peptide-based, cancer-specific immunotherapy against GBM.
„Mira circa nos” — kanonizacja Franciszka czy Zakonu?
Authors: Czajka Tomasz
Published: February 2024

In the papal letter “Mira circa nos”, published on the occasion of the canonization of Francis of Assisi in July 1226, Gregory IX, using many references to biblical figures and events, presented to the believers some selected elements of his spiritual profile. These elements not only provided insight into the profile of the new saint but, also by referring to the community of Friars Minor he had founded, marked out for them a well-defined direction of activity in the Church. This article analyzes and describes two very characteristic biblical references by means of which Gregory IX presents St. Francis as a zealous preacher, reformer and apostle sent by God to work in the Church, leading others along the path of salvation. The references to the workers of the eleventh hour from Jesus’ parable and to the biblical sisters Rachel and Leah to strongly emphasize the value and need of apostolic life, read in the context of the Church’s ongoing reform and the texts of earlier authors, show a clear trace of the Holy See’s policy toward the order founded by Francis.
Przekształcenie Ordynariatu dla Polaków w Niemczech w Polską Misję Katolicką w Niemczech
Authors: Mraczek Michał
Published: February 2024

Due to the special situation of Poles in Germany after the end of the Second World War and the need to provide them with pastoral care, an Ordinariate for Poles in Germany was established as a personal diocese by a decision of the Holy See on 5 June 1945. In a relatively short period of time and despite very difficult conditions, it was possible to organise effective pastoral structures. The main burden of work rested with the parishes, whose numbers began to dwindle over time as the number of Poles in Germany decreased. In connection with the new legislation on the pastoral care of migrants, in 1976 the former personal diocese for Poles was transformed into the Polish Catholic Mission in Germany. This was also accompanied by a change in the status of the priest in charge of Polish pastoral ministry in Germany. The new structures proved to be adequate for the pastoral challenges that arose later and, as a result, the Polish Catholic Mission in Germany has been able to develop to this day.
„Szlak św. Ottona”. Koncepcja trasy pielgrzymkowej jako forma upamiętnienia misji chrystianizacyjnej św. Ottona z Bambergu na Pomorzu (1124-1128)
Authors: Szczodry Marcin
Published: February 2024

The area of Pomerania was Christianized 900 years ago as a result of the missionary activity of Saint Otto of Bamberg. Otto undertook two missionary expeditions, in 1124 and 1128. The road that Bishop Otto traveled became the inspiration for the present inhabitants of these areas to undertake research and work on setting out Saint Otto’s Route. This article aims to examine whether the itinerary designed in this way fulfils the formal requirements to be classified as a pilgrimage route. Using the analytical method, the state of historical research is first presented, based on which it has become possible to reconstruct the route taken by Saint Otto in Pomerania in the 12th century. It then presents the criteria that, in the light of Church documents must be met to recognize the route marked as a pilgrim itinerary. The following part of the study shows places where the memory of the Apostle of Pomerania is cultivated today, and which can be stages of the pilgrimage itinerary. In the light of the analyses carried out, it was shown that the “Saint Otto’s Route” can be classified as a pilgrimage route, becoming part of pastoral activities that will bring closer the present inhabitants of these areas to the person of the Apostle of Pomerania and his heritage, inspiring them to deepen their Christian identity.
