Published: September 2020

The study was conducted to assess the value chain of ginger sub-sector in Hiliyang Rural Municipality, Panchthar District, Nepal. The study was conducted in ward No 6 and 7 of Hiliyang Rural Municipality under the area of block of ginger under Prime Minister Agriculture Modernization Project. The methodological tools such as household survey with 60 ginger producers using interview schedule, key informants interview and rapid market appraisal with ginger producers and focus group discussion among local traders, local collectors, and district level traders were used to collect information. The ginger producers were sampled using random sampling technique and the data were collected in 2018, Feb-June. It was found that majority of the respondents had agriculture as their primary occupation with average land holding area 0.944 ha with average ginger production area 0.088 ha. The average yield of the ginger was 12.40 MT/ha with average cost of production of ginger Rs.17.68/kg. Majority of the respondents had known about the trending price of ginger via local collectors and traders. Fresh ginger was the only product exported from the district as value addition was very nominal. Only cleaning, sorting and packaging activities were performed by the farmers who sold their produce to local traders who in turn supplied to exporter of Birtamode. The trend of ginger cultivation was found to be decreasing. Low as well as fluctuating market price, lack of proper storage and processing facilities were regarded as major problems in ginger marketing. Rhizome rot and Khumle kira was found as the main hindrance in ginger production. This research explored the existing scenario of ginger value chain and its major constraints in the study area.

Published: September 2020

The present investigation had shown the genetic analysis of different agronomic characters as well as quality traits in linseed of six parents were evaluated in 2009-10, during rabi season at Students Instructional Farm, C. S. A. University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur, U.P., revealed the role of both additive and non-additive gene action for all ten characters through diallel cross analysis. Average degree of dominance showed the presence of partial dominance for all the characters except iodine value which showed over dominance. The proportions of positive and negative effects in the parents were asymmetrical for all the characters. The ratio of dominant and recessive alleles in parents (KD/KR), indicated the dominant alleles were more frequent than recessive alleles for the characters, number of capsules per plant, days to maturity and iodine value in F1 and days to flower in F2 generation. Characters, plant height, number of primary and secondary branches per plant, 1000-seed weight, seed yield per plant and oil content in both F1 and F2 generations showed that recessive alleles were more frequent determining the extents of genetic gain that can be made in particular direction. If the alleles present in the population are predominantly of recessive nature, the extent of genetic advance will be limited. The computed ratio of (ĥ2/Ĥ2) estimate the number of gene groups suggested the preponderance of recessive genes; however they do have dominant genes. ‘t2’ value for uniformly test for Wr, Vr interprets distribution of dominant and recessive genes among the parents by investigating the relations.

A field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2013 to study response of clusterbean varieties to fertility levels and agro-chemicals at SKN College of Agriculture, Jobner. The experiment consisted of two varieties (RGC-1038 and RGC-1066), three treatments of fertility levels (control, 50% RDF and 100% RDF) and three treatments of agro-chemicals (control, thiourea 500 ppm twice at vegetative and pre flowering stage and thiourea 100 ppm twice at vegetative and pre flowering stage) thereby making eighteen treatment combinations tested in randomized block design with three replications. The results indicated that RGC 1066 variety recorded significantly higher plant height 60 DAS and at harvest and dry matter per meter row length at 30 DAS, 60 DAS and at harvest, number of pods/plant and seeds/pod, test weight, seed yield, stover yield and biological yield as compared to variety of RGC-1038. The result further indicated that application of fertilized 100% RDF significantly gave higher plant height at 60 DAS and at harvest similarly, dry matter per meter row length at 30 DAS, 60 DAS and at harvest, number of pods/plant and seeds/pod, test weight, seed yield, stover yield and biological yield recorded higher over control and fertilized with 50% RDF. Likewise, application of agro-chemical @ thiourea (500 ppm) significantly increased the plant height at 60 DAS and at harvest and dry matter per meter row length at 30 DAS, 60 DAS and at harvest, number of pods/plant and seeds/pod, test weight, seed yield, stover yield and biological yield and remained at par with the application of agro-chemical @ TGA (100 ppm) over control. However, plant height at 30 DAS remained materially unchanged under different varieties, fertility levels and agro-chemicals.
In-situ trash management induced sustainability of soil health to produce the qualitative products
Authors: Bairwa Rajendra , . Mamta , Dhaker Devi Lal , Bagoria Neeraj
Published: September 2020

In-situ trash management is necessary to cut the atmosphere pollution as well as replenishment of plant nutrient. Burning of crop residues leads to release of soot particles and smoke causing human and animal health problems. It also leads to emission of greenhouse gases namely carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide, causing global warming and loss of plant nutrients like N, P, K and S. Soils of the world’s agro ecosystems (i.e., croplands, grazing lands, rangelands) are depleted of their soil organic carbon (SOC) stock by 25-75% depending on climate, soil type, historic management and the magnitude of this loss may be 10 to 50 Mg C ha-1. Integrated sugarcane trash management (ISTM), microbial enriched (Trichoderma viridae) and farm yard manure is effective in enhancing the soil health and sugarcane yield. Soil organic carbon is the most important attribute and chosen as the most important indicator of soil and environment quality and agricultural sustainability.

Impact assessment on water harvesting and valley dams
Authors: Gayar Attia El
Published: September 2020

Gravity dam is one of the biggest structures built on the Earth. It is known as a life line structure, as it serves the purpose of irrigation, hydro-electric power generation, flood control, domestic and industrial water supply etc., which are important for human existence. This makes dam as a reliable structure. For this reason, dam should always be designed for highest safety. Dam is one of the hydraulic structures constructed to serve particular functions. It is a water control feature to impound water supply, to divert water from a water course, or to raise the elevation for water body. In supplying the water to the consumers, a dam holds it from flowing into the pipe, tunnel and conduit. Earth fill dams are a good alternative to dugouts where larger volumes of water must be stored at a reasonable cost and suitable site conditions exist. Proper design and construction is essential for dams; otherwise they will fail from washouts or seepage losses. If water quantity is your main priority, then a dam could be the best option. If better water quality is the important factor, a dugout is probably a better option. Take the time to properly plan, construct, inspect and maintain your dam, and it will be a valuable water resource for your farm for many years to come. However, poor management of dams can cause problems and disasters in terms of safety of dam and how it affects the people and the environment. This study focuses for conducts how the design, operator and maintenance of dam to be ensure it is safety.

Published: September 2020

The main objective of this study is to develop the advanced composites for civil engineering applications as material for the building industry, especially for an insulation purpose. The research processes include several steps. Firstly, the prototype elements, such as bricks and elevation elements were performed from eco-friendly composite -flax fiber reinforced geopolymer. The elements were designed to take into consideration for environment. Geopolymers are environmentally friendly, sustainable, and resource efficient, including energy demand. Next, the wall was built from these elements and exposed during the three months in a relevant environment. The main conclusion of the research is that the kind of fibers is important for the mechanical properties of the composite, including the fact that for those different fibers could be more beneficial for different raw materials, giving higher strength properties. The significant influence on the mechanical properties of the composites has the adhesion between fiber and material used as a matrix. The adhesion depends among others on the previous treatment of the fibers.
Design and Optimization of Micro-Machined Sierpinski Carpet Fractal Antenna Using Ant Lion Optimization
Authors: Ashish Kumar  , Pharwaha Amar Partap Singh
Published: September 2020

This study investigates the optimized Sierpinski carpet fractal patch antenna and also explores the possibility of the integration of the proposed design with monolithic microwave integrated circuits. The optimization process has been performed using an ant lion optimization algorithm to achieve the required operating frequency and impedance matching. Further, due to surface waves excitation in the high index substrates used for the antenna design, the performance of the antenna degrades. Therefore, a process of micro-machining has been adopted to overcome this limitation. The micro-machining process creates an air cavity underneath the patch which further creates the low index environment in the patch antenna causing drastic improvement in the performance parameters along with the compatibility with monolithic microwave integrated circuits. The design shows multiple resonance frequencies in X-band and Ku-band. The proposed micro-machined design shows the resonance at 7.9 GHz, 9.6 GHz, 13.6 GHz, and 19 GHz with a maximum gain of 6 dBi.
A Novel Investigation Method for the S21 Detection Circuit
Authors: Lee Ming-Che
Published: September 2020

This research proposes a novel method to investigate the performance of the S21 detection circuit. Aiming at low frequencies or DC, the method serves as an efficient way of verification and enjoys the benefit of low testing costs. The novel investigation method is demonstrated at 50 MHz and verified by the scattering parameters at 11.05 GHz. Based on the investigation, a model of process variations is constructed. The length of the interface paths is estimated by the model to be 63µm, which is consistent with the corresponding length of 74.6µm in the layout. For the measured phase and magnitude, the model indicates that the process variations in the device under test cause errors of 18.91% and 1.27%, whereas those in the interface paths lead to errors of 1.83% and 1%. Based on the model, practical recommendations are also proposed to further improve the measurement precision in the future.
Effective Heart Disease Prediction Model Through Voting Technique
Authors: B Usha Sri
Published: September 2020

Machine learning has various practical applications that solves many issues relating to various domains .One among such domain is the health care domain and the most common application of machine learning is the prediction of an outcome based upon existing data in health care industry. Machine learning is shown as an effective technique in assisting the health care industry to make intelligent and effective decisions. The model tries to learn pattern from the existing dataset and later on it is applied to the unknown dataset for effectively predicting the outcome. Classification is the most effective technique for prediction of outcome. There are many classification algorithms which are used for prediction but only few algorithms predict with good accuracy whereas remaining algorithms predict with less accuracy. So to improve the accuracy of weak algorithms this paper presented a new method called ensemble classification
,where the accuracy is enhanced by combining multiple classifiers and later prediction is done by voting technique. So, experiments were done on a heart disease dataset, through ensemble approach the accuracy was enhanced and along with that a GUI was developed where the user himself can check whether he has probability of getting heart disease or not. The results of the study showed that ensemble method such as voting technique played a key role in improving the accuracy prediction of weak classifiers and also identified risk factors for occurrence of heart disease. An accuracy of 90% was achieved with voting technique and the performance of the process was further enhanced with a feature selection implementation, and the results showed significant improvement in prediction accuracy.

Cloud acts as a data storage and also used for data transfer from one cloud to other. Here data exchange takes place among cloud centers of organizations. At each cloud center huge amount of data was stored, which interns hard to store and retrieve information from it. While migrating the data there are some issues like low data transfer rate, end to end latency issues and data storage issues will occur. As data was distributed among so many cloud centers from single source, will reduces the speed of migration. In distributed cloud computing it is very difficult to transfer the data fast and securely. This paper explores MapReduce within the distributed cloud architecture where MapReduce assists at each cloud. It strengthens the data migration process with the help of HDFS. Compared to existing cloud migration approach the proposed approach gives accurate results interns of speed, time and efficiency.
ALANS AND ALANIAN DOGS.

Published: September 2020

Немецкий дог (Deutsche Dogge), называемый также большая датская собака (Grand Danois), известен в Италии под именем аланской собаки (Cane Alano) или немецкой аланской собаки. Это название употребляется в Италии с 1920 г., и оно было дано немецкому догу вероятнее всего в связи с предполагаемым его происхождением от собаки аlaunt, появившейся в Европе, в соответствии с некоторыми гипотезами, вместе с приходом аланов во время их передвижения на запад. Цель настоящей работы – попытаться выяснить, возможно ли доказать, что немецкий дог происходит от аlaunt, и, в особенности, существует ли на самом деле связь между аланами, собаками аlaunt и аланскими собаками нашего времени.

The Deutsche Dogge, also called Great Dane (Grand Danois), is known in Italy under the name of the “Alanian dog” (Cane Alano) or “German Alanian dog”. This name has been used in Italy since 1920, and it was given to the Great Dane most likely in connection with its alleged origin from the “Alaunt” dog, which appeared in Europe, according to some hypothesis, along with the arrival of the Alans during their movement westward. The purpose of this work is to try to find out whether it is possible to prove that the Great Dane comes from “Alaunt” and, in particular, whether there is really a connection between Alans, “Alaunt” dogs and “Alanian dogs” of our time.
La custòdia compartida: un pas més cap a la igualtat de gènere?
Authors: Solsona Montse , Ajenjo Marc
Published: September 2020

Les dades publicades per l’Institut Nacional d’Estadística (INE) mostren que, des de 2011, hi ha una forta estabilitat en la xifra de divorcis –situada al voltant dels 100 mil anuals, en la meitat dels quals hi ha fills/es menors d’edat–, mentre que es dóna un notable increment de la custòdia compartida, en detriment del paradigma anterior de custòdia exclusiva de la mare amb un règim de visites pel pare. Entre 2011 i 2016, la custòdia compartida ha passat del 12% al 28% dels divorcis amb fills/es menors. Aquest creixement, liderat per les comunitats autònomes que tenen una legislació favorable, reflecteix canvis socials de més llarg abast relacionats amb la igualtat de gènere dins i fora de la llar. L’anàlisi de les sèries de l’INE, sumat a la inèdita explotació de totes les sentències de divorci i ruptures de parelles de fet dels jutjats de família de la ciutat de Barcelona de l’any 2014 –5.894 sentències–, mostren que la custòdia compartida pactada significa, si més no sobre el paper, equitat entre el pare i la mare, tant pel que fa a la residència alternada dels infants com a la participació en les seves despeses. Vist això, ens podem preguntar si seria útil atorgar per defecte la custòdia compartida dels fills després de la separació dels progenitors. La resposta no pot ser més clara: No. La custòdia compartida hauria de provenir d’un pacte que reflectís una pràctica anterior de coparentalitat en equitat, que a dia d’avui encara no és pas majoritària.
El factor demogràfic en la sostenibilitat del sistema de pensions a Espanya

Published: September 2020

La caiguda dels naixements, l’augment de l’esperança de vida i la jubilació futura dels baby-boomers desafia la sostenibilitat del sistema de pensions a Espanya perquè disminueix la relació entre cotitzants i jubilats. En aquest número del Perspectives Demogràfiques examinem la incidència d’aquestes causes sobre la sostenibilitat demogràfica del sistema i l’efecte que diversos escenaris de mortalitat, fecunditat i migració exterior podrien tenir en el futur. Les condicions demogràfiques del passat, molt favorables pel sistema, no es repetiran en el futur, però la demografia del futur no hauria de ser obstacle per mantenir un sistema de pensions, basat en la idea de repartiment, sostenible, solidari i suficient.
School failure among descendents of immigrants in Catalonia: more than just another assignment

Published: September 2020

The descendants of international immigrants and their social integration must be among the priority focuses in the construction of social cohesion. However, the available statistical data are scanty, fragmentary, and clearly insufficient. In this issue of Perspectives Demogràfiques we present the demographic profile of descendants of immigrants, their relationship with immigration, their diversity, territorial distribution, and school performance as a tool for combatting inequality and discrimination in a population group which, in future, could come to represent a quarter of the young people residing in Catalonia. The data presented here have been provided by research carried out by the Secretariat for Equality, Migrations and Citizenship and published in the report “Resultats escolars, migració i territori. Catalunya, 2011-2016” (School Results, Migration and Territory: Catalonia, 2011 – 2016). They were made possible thanks to the link-up between data from the Department of Education of the Generalitat (Government) of Catalonia for students in the 2015-2016 academic year and the Population Statistics Register of the Statistical Institute of Catalonia (IDESCAT).
¿Supone la monoparentalidad un riesgo para el rendimiento escolar de los hijos?
Authors: Boertien Diederik
Published: September 2020

Con el objetivo de asegurarles un buen futuro, los progenitores siguen varias estrategias para invertir en las habilidades, la educación, las normas y los valores de sus hijos. A ciertas estrategias, como escoger un colegio o leer cuentos a los niños, hay que dedicarles tiempo. Otras, en cambio, requieren que los padres tengan dinero. Algunos ejemplos de estrategias caras son las clases extraescolares o vivir en un “buen” barrio. Por lo tanto, invertir en los hijos es un proceso que exige tiempo y dinero. Los progenitores que viven juntos a menudo pueden ayudarse mutuamente en esta tarea, mientras que hacer todas estas inversiones puede resultar más difícil para los progenitores de familias monoparentales. ¿Deberíamos por ello preocuparnos por las oportunidades que van a tener sus hijos en la vida? ¿Deberíamos preocuparnos por los niños que viven en familias monoparentales de niveles socioeconómicos más bajos? Y, en caso afirmativo, ¿qué podemos hacer al respecto? En este artículo nos proponemos responder a estas preguntas en relación con España, donde las familias monoparentales femeninas son cada vez más habituales. En primer lugar, utilizamos los datos del censo para documentar el aumento de las familias monoparentales femeninas y mostramos que en 1991 el 6 % de los niños vivían en una familia monoparental femenina, mientras que en 2011 este porcentaje había crecido hasta el 15 %. A continuación, estudiamos los datos del proyecto PISA de la OCDE para analizar las aptitudes matemáticas de los niños que viven en familias monoparentales. Aunque las puntuaciones en matemáticas de los niños que viven en familias monoparentales son ligeramente inferiores a las de los que viven con dos progenitores, estas diferencias resultan ser muy poco relevantes cuando se examinan más detalladamente. Sostenemos que, si queremos fomentar la igualdad de oportunidades en España, no debemos centrarnos en la estructura familiar sino en otras causas de la desigualdad de oportunidades, como el nivel de ingresos, el barrio y el colegio.

Authors: Navarro Guilherme Neves de Paiva
Published: September 2020

This study examines the OECD initiative to combat base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS Project), embodied in the Multilateral Instrument (MLI). In this line, the paper deals with the phenomenon of treaty shopping and the general anti-avoidance rule materialised as the principal purpose test rule – or PPT rule –, conceptualising it, presenting its problems and analysing its practical application. Moreover, the paper addresses its compatibility with the domestic legal systems, and other anti-avoidance clauses set out in the Multilateral Instrument, in particular the Limitation-on-Benefits clause – or LOB clause. Finally, the study culminates in its assertions, noting that specific issues on the PPT rule are inescapable to it, and may affect the very effectiveness of this GAAR.
MULTILATERALISMO VERSUS EXCEPCIONALISMO NO DIREITO TRIBUTÁRIO INTERNACIONAL: SERIA O INSTRUMENTO MULTILATERAL UMA RECONCILIAÇÃO?
Authors: Araújo Hélio Eduardo de Paiva
Published: September 2020

Este trabalho analisa criticamente o surgimento de um regime tributário multilateral, particularmente devido aos recentes esforços produzidos pela OCDE. Avalia-se o significado e o impacto potencial das iniciativas adotadas dentro desta organização internacional para promover uma abordagem multilateral à tributação à luz do direito internacional. Além disso, não há nada excepcional sobre a tributação que possa justificar um tratamento especial a esta área do conhecimento jurídico, embora tal “excepcionalíssimo” tenha marcado a história e determinado o desenvolvimento do direito da tributação internacional, que seguiu um padrão único, diferente de outras áreas do direito internacional. Como não há nada intrinsecamente especial sobre impostos, estes devem ser analisados usando experiências e práticas de comércio internacional, investimento internacional e direitos humanos, devendo-se analisar, portanto, a hipótese relativa à reforma da tributação internacional que está sendo discutida, neste momento, a partir dos mecanismos e regulação já existentes no direito internacional. Neste sentido, a metodologia deverá refletir o desenvolvimento de tais experiências e práticas, a partir do método indutivo, com técnica de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental. Conclui-se que a especialidade da tributação internacional demanda soluções específicas, mas ainda num sistema de correlação e dialogicidade com o direito internacional.

El dilema de la rentabilidad del cine mexicano. Análisis 2016-2017
Authors: García Méndez Diana
Published: September 2020

Los cineastas mexicanos independientes se enfrentan con grandes retos al intentar distribuir y comercializar sus proyectos en el mercado nacional. En esta investigación examinamos la razón por la cual dichos cineastas no son capaces de comercializar de manera exitosa sus películas en las diferentes ventanas de distribución disponibles. Además, revisaremos por qué las películas que logran llegar al mercado, no son tan rentables como las propuestas extranjeras exhibidas. El enfoque de esta investigación apoya la idea que, la razón por la cual los proyectos no so económicamente rentables es la falta de conocimiento sobre el negocio que tienen los cineastas al tratar de lanzar un producto al mercado, en este caso una película. En segundo lugar, haremos una propuesta de un modelo de negocio que podrá ayudar a resolver este problema a diferentes cineastas, para que se enfoquen en lo realmente importante, su oficio.

¿Influyen los objetos en la construcción de género? ¿Hacia dónde se dirige el diseño en una sociedad que intenta establecer nuevos códigos de libertad, relacionado con el contenido que consume y los productos que utiliza? De la tasa rosa al objeto es un artículo que nos presenta un recorrido por la historia y recapitula casos específicos de diseño y su influencia en la formación de identidades de género. ¿Cómo podemos trascender estos estereotipos? ¿Cómo podemos reinterpretar el lenguaje de nuestros objetos? ¿Cómo podemos reescribir el mensaje que dan nuestros productos?
El taller como escuela, el taller como fábrica. Diálogos entre la Bauhaus y el muralismo de Siqueiros
Authors: de la Rosa Natalia
Published: September 2020

Este texto retoma la formación y desarrollo de la Bauhaus, tanto en Weimar como en Dessau, con el objetivo de remarcar un tipo de enlace que el movimiento tuvo con el programa artístico de David Alfaro Siqueiros. El diálogo permite comprender con mayor profundidad las líneas de investigación y práctica de Siqueiros, centradas en las propuestas de taller-escuela y taller-fábrica que el artista puso en marcha a partir de la década de 1930. El muralista readaptó y reactivó en diversas ocasiones este modelo a lo largo de su práctica artística, debido a la importancia que dicha resolución tuvo para su apuesta político-estética. Asimismo, la investigación remite a los estatutos de Walter Gropius expresados en el manifesto de 1919 que aludieron a la unificación de las artes (pintura, escultura, arquitectura), ya que mantiene una conexión directa con el proyecto que Siqueiros definió en 1933, a través de la “integración plástica”.

Published: September 2020

In recent decades, space, like land, sea, air and cyberspace, has become a platform for the confronting between powerful states, which has led to a change in the nature of action in the near-Earth space of a number of countries. The consequence of space activities was that the geographical location ceased to be dominant in international relations. Unfortunately, the national space activity has not become an effective tool for achieving the geopolitical goals of Ukraine, ensuring the fulfillment of tasks in the interests of national security and defense. In this regard, it is important to analyze current trends in the development of space activities in the world in the security sector, the results of which should be the basis for the introduction of best international experience in domestic practice. The article analyzes the directions of use of outer space, space products and services by leading countries in the interests of security and defense. The main trends of development of space activity are defined: globalization in connection with the increasing number of space states; expansion of partnership with simultaneous aspirations for autonomy in this sphere; emergence of inspection technologies for orbital means, etc. Space capabilities in the interests of national security and defense are considered, in particular the usage of military and civilian, intelligence and commercial space systems and infrastructure for supporting security strategies, achieving national goals and protecting public interests. Further directions of improvement of national space activity in the field of national security and defense of Ukraine are proposed, namely: improvement of its normative and legal support; clarification of the purpose, definition of the main tasks and priority directions of its improvement; formation of a management system; organization and development of interagency coordination, interaction and joint problem solving.
Some Current Problems with the Regulation of Limited Liability Companies in Serbia
Authors: Marjanski Vladimir , Dudás Attila
Published: September 2020

In Serbia, the legal status of limited liability companies (LLCs; društvo sa ograničenom odgovornošću, d.o.o.) is for the most part regulated by the Companies Act (Zakon o privrednim društvima). All four basic legal forms of company are regulated by this Act. Unlike in Austria and Germany, there are no special laws on LLCs and joint stock companies (JSCs). Regulating all legal forms of a company with the same act, including procedures for their liquidation, status changes (acquisition, merger, division, and spin-off), and changes of legal form, may be considered a conceptual shortcoming of the regulation relating to LLCs and of company law in Serbia in general. A specific law would enable legislators to tailor detailed rules pertaining only to LLCs, in which all peculiarities of this legal form of companies might be better addressed. Furthermore, there are relatively numerous legal norms applicable to JSCs, the appropriate application of which is can be legally extended to LLCs. However, most of them are not conceptually applicable due to the different nature of JSCs and LLCs. In addition, company law will have to undergo significant changes in upcoming years due to the process of accession of Serbia to the European Union and the fulfilment of the conditions contained in chapter 6 of the accession negotiations pertaining to company law.

Non-territorial Autonomy in East-Central Europe: What About Romania?
Authors: Kovács Bálint
Published: September 2020

The paper attempts to provide an understanding of the reasons Romania has not sought non-territorial autonomy as a solution for minority claims by analysing a 15-year-old legislative proposal elaborated by a minority rights organisation. Although the analysis of this antiquated proposal seems long overdue, it holds answers relating to the attitude of the State and of minority organisations regarding autonomy, in which—ultimately—the issue seems to be a lack of serious intention by either of the two to change the minority legal status quo.
