Potensi lokal sebagai upaya diversifikasi pangan merupakan hal yang ingin dicapai sebagai upaya dari ketahanan pangan. Melalui kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat dengan tujuan meningkatkan potensi lokal yang ada serta peningkatan kesadaran berwirausaha, kegiatan sosialiasi berwirausaha serta potensi local mocaf dilakukan. Kegiatan sosialisasi ini dilaksanakan secara pertemuan langsung dengan menghadirkan narasumber yang berpengalaman dalam bidang entrepreneur dan pengolahan mocaf. Potensi dari diversifikasi pangan pada lingkungan Desa Majau sebagai lokasi dari pengabdian juga didukung oleh potensi perkebunan singkongnya. Hal tersebut bukan hanya dapat mendorong diversifikasi, tetapi juga dapat meningkatkan perekonomian masyarakat lokal. Dari kegiatan yang dilakukan, dapat teramati bahwa masyarakat lokal cenderung memilih tepung mocaf sebagai pengganti tepung terigu karena keunikan rasa yang dimiliki cenderung lebih disukai. Hanya saja pelebaran sayap bisnis perlu dilakukan guna untuk memaksimalkan segala potensi yang ada terutama agar dapat menjangkau pasar didaerah perkotaan. Saran dari kegiatan agar kedepannya masyarakat dapat terus belajar dan berinovasi dalam mengembangkan produk-produk olahan dari mocaf, hal tersebut akan dapat meningkatkan nilai jual objek dibandingkan hanya dengan menjual dalam bentuk tepung.

Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is an early symptom of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The feature extraction and deep learning architecture of the convolutional neural network in 3D brain images is applied to the problem of Alzheimer’s disease. The Structural Magnetic Resonance (sMRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) image of the patient’s brain are classified according to the vigorousness of the disease and is labelled to be either in MCI or in AD or Normal Control (NC) condition. In this paper, we proposed a model and presented the baseline convolutional CNN with four layers viz., Convolutional layer, Leaky Rectified Linear Unit(LReLU), S3Pool layer and Global average pooling. Further, the 3D image data is used to perform the binary and ternary classifications and its performance are examined. The strength of the network has improved interior resource utilization evaluated with medical images, sMRI and PET on hippocampal ROI. The results of our proposed CNN architecture have achieved an accuracy level of 0.945, 0.859 and 0.748 respectively, when compared to the conventional AlexNet based network. The obtained data from the ADNI database shows better performance with our proposed model.
Il caso Italcementi di fronte alla High Court of Justice dell’isola di Man: l’accertamento del corretto esercizio dei poteri del trustee
Authors: Persano Federica
Published: May 2022

Tesi
La pronuncia della High Court of Justice dell’isola di Man affronta il caso Italcementi oltre che con specifico riferimento alle problematiche ad esso sottese in una prospettiva ben più ampia e delicata, nell’ottica della tutela di valori quali il senso della famiglia, l’importanza delle relazioni umane, il rispetto e la riconoscenza per le generazioni che ci hanno preceduto e ci hanno trasmesso il loro amore e i loro insegnamenti.
The author’s view
The ruling of the High Court of Justice of the Isle of Man approaches the Italcementi case not only with specific reference to the underlying issues but also from a much broader and sensitive perspective of protecting values such as the sense of family, the importance of human relationships, and respect and gratitude for the generations that have gone before us and passed on their love and teachings.

Massima
Il decreto ingiuntivo emesso nei confronti del trust è revocabile per via del fatto che il trust difetta di legittimazione passiva, dovendo considerarsi unico titolare dei diritti derivanti dal trust il trustee ed essendo il trust carente di personalità giuridica.
Sul divorzio ed esclusione dei beneficiari (In the matter of V, W and X Trusts, Jersey)
Authors: Hepaj Ermelinda
Published: May 2022

Massima
Nel caso «In the matter of V, W and X Trusts 2021 JRC», deciso dalla Royal Court dell’isola di Jersey, viene in rilievo l’importanza dell’intervento della Corte per la tutela dei diritti di cui godono o possono godere i beneficiari di un trust, anche ove non ancora determinati.
Non può essere ritenuto legittimo il potere dei trustee di ridurre la classe dei beneficiari, ove questa modifica, seppur avvalata dagli stessi, vada a scapito di quei beneficiari futuri e non ancora determinati, ovvero dello stesso fondo in trust.
I trust dinastici, il cui fondo è destinato a beneficio della famiglia, non possono eslcudere tout court i coniugi, le vedove ed i vedovi facenti parte della classe dei beneficiari che non siano stati ancora determinati, solo al fine di prevenire futuri conteziosi in caso di divorzio.
Il decreto ingiuntivo emesso nei confronti del trustee e la sua responsabilità patrimoniale (App. Milano, 13 dicembre 2021, n. 3558)
Authors: Patrone Matteo
Published: May 2022

Massima
Il trustee è tenuto, quale proprietario di un immobile sito in un condominio, al pagamento delle spese condominiali. Il trustee risponde con tutti i propri beni (diversi e ulteriori rispetto a quelli trasferitigli in qualità di trustee) delle obbligazioni nascenti dal trust. L’omessa indicazione della qualifica di trustee in capo al destinatario di decreto ingiuntivo è irrilevante e non incide sulla validità della costituzione del rapporto processuale, tanto più ove non sia dimostrata la trascrizione dell’atto istitutivo del trust. È parimenti irrilevante che il decreto ingiuntivo venga emesso nei confronti del trustee identificato tramite il suo codice fiscale anziché mediante quello del trust.
Assoggettabilità dei trust non liberali al tributo donativo
Authors: Tarini Federico
Published: May 2022

Tesi
Nonostante la Corte di cassazione ritenga che i trust non liberali, seppur privi dello «spirito di liberalità» siano ancora soggetti al tributo donativo, questi devono, più correttamente, essere esclusi dal campo dell’applicazione dell’imposta in quanto caratterizzati da una componente esclusivamente a carattere oneroso. 
The author’s view
Although the Supreme Court considers that non-liberal trusts, albeit lacking the «spirit of liberality», are still subject to the gift tax, these must, more correctly, be excluded from the scope of application of the tax as they are characterized by an exclusively onerous component.

Published: May 2022

На основе современных достижений по эффективному замещению в системах теплоснабжения ископаемых видов топлива на теплоту возобновляемых и вторичных источников предложена теплонасосная технология хлебобулочных изделий с использованием двухступенчатого парокомпрессионного теплового насоса. Установлены режимы функционирования теплового насоса, обеспечивающие подготовку теплоносителей разного температурного потенциала для энергоэффективной реализации технологического процесса. В соответствии с методологией эксергетического анализа рассмотрено влияние на технологическую систему производства хлебобулочных изделий внутренних и внешних энергетических потерь. В суммарное количество внутренних эк-сергетических потерь, связанных с необратимостью реальных процессов, входили потери от конечной разности температур в результате рекуперативного теплообмена между материальными и тепловыми потоками; электромеханические потери приводов машин; потери при необратимом изменении свойств промежуточных продуктов; гидравлические потери, обусловленные внезапным увеличением удельного объема теплоносителя при его поступлении из трубопровода в рабочие объемы аппаратов. Внешние потери связаны с условиями сопряжения системы с окружающей средой. Эксергетический анализ показал, что эксергетический КПД для тех-нологии получения хлебобулочных изделий с применением  теплового насоса составляет 16,35 %, что на 5-7 % выше, чем у традиционных технологий. При переходе технологической системы в состояние равновесия с окружающей средой эта часть энергии полезным образом использована в термодинамических процессах предлагаемой технологии.

В технологии специализированных продуктов и продуктов детского питания особая роль принадлежит зерновым культурам. Зерно составляет значительную часть сырья предприятий пищевой и перерабатывающей промышленности, тем самым формируя межотраслевые пропорции не только в агропромышленном производстве, но и во всей экономике страны. В этом плане наиболее перспективным сырьём для производства белково-липидных композиций среди зерновых культур являются овёс и ячмень. Эти культуры являются наиболее распространенными и важными зерновыми культура в РФ. Они способны формировать экономически эффективные, стабильные урожаи зерна в широком диапазоне почвенных и климатических условий. Современная сортовая политика, принципы функционирования зернового рынка предполагает использование в производстве широкого набора сортов, различающихся по комплексу биологических и хозяйственно-ценных признаков, поскольку генетический потенциал сорта, в значительной мере, определяет уровень урожайности и качество продукции. Актуальна селекция голозёрного овса и ячменя, который имеет ценное по качеству зерно и более технологичен в переработке по сравнению с плёнчатым. Материалом для данного изучения послужили 27 сортов ячменя и овса (голозёрные и плёнчатые подвиды) из мировой коллекции Федерального исследовательского центра Всероссийского института генетических ресурсов растений имени Н.И. Вавилова (ВИР). У сортов ячменя и овса были измерены и рассчитаны геометрические характеристики зерна (линейные размеры, площадь внешней поверхности, сферичность, объём зерна, отношение объёма зерна к площади внешней поверхности), определены характеристики зерна, связанные с плотностью (физическая плотность, насыпная плотность (натура), масса и объём 1000 семян); исследованы содержание влаги, белка и жира в зёрнах овса и ячменя. В результате изучения отобраны голозёрные два сорта овса («Самсон 57» и «Першерон») и два сорта ячменя («Нудум 95» и «Омский голозёрный 4»), характеризующиеся повышенным содержанием белка и жира, повышенной плотностью и достаточным размером зёрен. Показатели выделенных голозерных сортов ячменя и овса превышают стандартные геометрические и физические зерновые показатели и обладают необходимыми биохимическими свойствами. В связи с этим они могут быть рекомендованы в качестве сырья в технологиях получения белково-липидно-углеводных композиций из зернового сырья со сбалансированным нутриентным составом для последующего использования в специализированном и массовом, в т.ч. детском питании.

В статье рассматривается один из аспектов проблемы – лечение и профилактика сахарного диабета с использованием фитокомпозиции, составленной на базе растений отечественной флоры. Компоненты состава – растения, произрастающие в Таджикистане и имеющие надёжную сырьевую базу. А так как в последнее время вырос интерес к лечению сахарного диабета в связи с появлением коронавирусной инфекции и её последствиями, то актуальность данного фрагмента отчётливо выражена. И особенно привлекательно то обстоятельство, что исследуется с этой целью именно природный состав, который отличается также и новизной. Предлагаемый комплекс в форме сухих экстрактов проявил сахароснижающую активность. В связи с этим были выполнены фитохимические исследования в отношении полифенольного комплекса и витамина С, показавшие положительный результат.  Данные исследования были проведены с использованием спектрофотометра. В качестве доминанты по фармакологическим показателям была выбрана солодка: при этом был определен тритерпеновый комплекс с преобладанием глицирризиновой кислоты, влияющий на антидиабетический эффект, который был апробирован и доказан, в свою очередь, на модели сахарного диабета. Оказалось, что содержание глицирризиновой кислоты в сухом экстракте, составляет 6,197 %. Таким образом, было подтверждено наличие в исследуемой фитокомпозиции, состоящей из сухих экстрактов солодки, галеги, липы, крапивы, мяты, шиповника, полифенольного комплекса и витамина С, а также отмечена значимая роль в этом комплексе солодки голой.
The Populist Substantialization of Popular Sovereignty
Authors: Urbinati Nadia
Published: May 2022

This paper argues that populism is a celebration of the myth of sovereignty; it reaches this conclusion by focusing on the populist form of representation as embodiment, a strategy that promises to overcome the gap that mandate representation creates between the elected and the people. The paper shows that this solution ends up being worse than the problem it seeks to solve.

Published: May 2022

Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus exploitation in the Aghien lagoon, Côte d’Ivoire, were analyzed by applying growth and mortality parameters, exploitation rate, relative yield and relative biomass per recruit. Fish population were sampled monthly during one year between June 2014 and May 2015 from artisanal and experimental captures. All the parameters determined during this study were done by the FiSAT II software. Concerning growth parameters, results indicated that the asymptotic length (L∞) has been estimated at 380.76 mm SL, growth coefficient (K) was 0.48 year -1 and growth performance index (Φ') was 2.84. Growth modelization revealed 4 cohorts for Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus. The estimates of the total (Z), natural (M) and fishing (F) mortalities were 2.11, 0.55 and 1.56 year -1 respectively. The exploitation rate obtained (E = 0.74) is higher than Emax (Emax = 0.41), thus indicating that the C. nigrodigitatus stock is in a state of overexploitation.

Published: May 2022

In Côte d'Ivoire, people use Rauwolfia vomitoria (Apocynaceae) as traditional medicine for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this study is to bring out the potentiel antidiabetic effect of an aqueous extract of roots devoid of Rauwolfia vomitoria bark (EARv), in rats made diabetic by alloxan monohydrate, a diabetogen substance, compared with the effect of glibenclamide, a reference antidiabetic substance. For this, the blood glucose level and weight evolution of healthy rats (normoglycemic), diabetic control rats and diabetic rats treated with EARv or glibenclamide are measured, as well as variations in transaminase levels during 28 days of experimentation. Administration of alloxan induces in rats made diabetic characterized by a significant and permanent increase in blood sugar, a decrease in body mass, followed by an increase in the level of serum transaminases, a sign of liver toxicity in rats. In rats made diabetic and treated daily with EARv at a dose of 1000 mg/kg body weight (B.W), there is a decrease in blood sugar and an increase in body mass, in the sense of their normalization, during the 28 days of treatment. In diabetes rats, EARv also results in normalization of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) concentration and a significant decrease in aspartate aminotransferase (AST). These effects of EARv at 1000 mg/kg B.W are similar to those of glibenclamide at 10 mg/kg B.W. These results show that, just like glibenclamide, EARv is an antidiabetic, hepatoprotective substance and tends to correct body mass loss in diabetic rats. These effects of EARv justify the use of Rauwolfia vomitoria in traditional medicine in the treatment of diabetes mellitus.

Riccia constitutes a group of species suffering from a liverworts complaint in thalles very diversified and with which a big part of these species are still described in the especially African tropical zones more particulary in Ethiopia and in Madagascar. The identification of certain species of bryophytes according to their morphological characteristics remains even today problematic notably because of a strong phenotypic plasticity or of phenomena of anvergence. The objective is to characterize and to study the genetic diversity of several species of bryophytes of these genera Riccia, on all sides the sides the channel of Mozambique, by an approach of integrative taxonomy. In a first phase, we developed with the morphological data of the primary hypotheses of delimitation of species and the second part, we tested theses hypotheses by molecular analyses based on the adapted genes. The results obtained show, on a set 13 morphological hypotheses, 10 groups were confirmed by the analysis of ABGD. We shall discuss the congruence of these results of molecular delimitation with our morphological hypotheses.

Authors: Kaur Jasmeet
Published: May 2022

Asia Pacific region was increasingly becoming world’s strategic, geopolitical and economic centre of gravity in the 21st century. For United States, the objective of institutionalizing and structuring relationships in the Asia Pacific specifically was to ultimately create a more extensive network of partners in the region beyond traditional allies as a part of rebalancing strategy. The aim of this paper was to identify the significance of Indo Pacific region for US. The paper focused on Barack Obama’s ‘Pivot to Asia’ which elaborated the foundation of US-Asia relations that was already in place. Further, Donald Trump’s ‘Free and Open Indo Pacific’ was focussed, which highlighted on US’s commitment to expand its vison and value of free and open regional order. The research methodology includes in-depth and detailed historical, strategic, political and international issues pertaining to US policies towards the Indo Pacific region. Lastly, the focus was also given on comparing the rational for this policy shift by both the presidents. This study has indeed contributed towards the development of knowledge to fulfil and secure our understanding of US policies towards the region and to the changing dynamics of geopolitics.

Published: May 2022

This qualitative approach article assessed the relationship between post war and the development of a Historical Curriculum for secondary schools in Somalia. Relevant knowledge and understanding of history encourages reconciliation and unity. Besides, poor curriculum and inadequate pedagogical practices undermine the merit of the history curriculum as an educational timely intervention. This may be linked to the mismatch between theory and practice. The study was anchored on the Social Identity Theory. The semi-structured interviews were used to garner information for the research study. A total of 11 people participated in the interviews. Results reveal that history curricula of Somalia has no relevancy in terms of developing national social identity. Qualitative interviews discovered five themes that appeared to be traits of a good curriculum: Relevancy, Powerful Knowledge, Cause and Consequences, Change and Continuity, and Difficult History. The results enabled the curriculum developers to possess knowledge for the development of a historical thematic curriculum. It was concluded that establishing a national relevant curriculum may encourage national identity and patriotism. Therefore, there is need for the government to increase funding for the development of a relevant national curriculum for secondary schools in Somalia.

Published: May 2022

Gender role reversal among spouses has become increasingly prevalent in both the developed and developing world, yet not much is known about its psychological effects on men and women in marriage especially in the developed and developing world. This study thus sought to establish the psychological effects of gender role reversal limiting itself to symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress among men and women in Nyeri County, Kenya. The target population were married Kikuyu men and women. Multi-stage sampling was used to select a sample of 392 participants constituted of 200 women and 192 men. Data was collected using questionnaires and focus group discussions. Quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive statistics while qualitative data was analyzed thematically. Results showed that 28% had symptoms of depression, 32% had symptoms of anxiety and 36% had symptoms of stress. The results extend our understanding of the psychological effects of the increasing prevalence of gender role reversal in marriage and recommend appropriate interventions to be put in place to mitigate the psychological effects.

To the Theory of a Unified Field
Authors: A Etkin, V.
Published: May 2022

Maxwell-like equations are offered that are valid not only for electromagnetic, but also for gravitational fields. They are based on an expanded form of the law of energy conversion, which explicitly takes into account the nonequilibrium of systems and the ability of energy to transfer from one energy carrier to another. This makes it possible to eliminate the distinction between electromechanics and the field theory, to find out the meaning of the magnetic vector potential as a function of the charge rotation speed, to reveal the tensor nature of the magnetic field and the presence of a divergent component of the scalar nature in it. The existence of the Lorentz magnetic forces and the presence of a work-performing moment therein are proved. Maxwell-like equations do not contain field operators and have a simpler form covering nevertheless a broader spectrum of phenomena due to taking into account the convective components of bias currents. Wave equations alternative to the Maxwell ones are offered and the non-electromagnetic nature of light is substantiated.

Published: May 2022

Porta Cabin Shelters are temporary dwellings constructed with Sandwich Panels, and used in operational sites by Oil and Gas Firms in Nigeria and Africa. This study carried out thermal performance analysis of Standard Porta Cabin Shelters used in Nigeria Liquified Natural Gas (NLNG) operational Sites using EN ISO 13786: 2017 and ISO 6946:2017 Calculation Methods and Procedures. The Calculation results were tested against the European Building Regulations Part L for compliance. This study reveals that the Porta Cabin shelters failed the compliance test. Analysis for possible compliance was undertaken and the outcome shows that construction of the roof, ceiling and walls with insulator (Sandwich Panels with Polyurethane Foam (PUF) as core materials thickness within the range of 80mm to 120mm) comply with the provision of European Building Regulations. Further analysis shows that adding about 80mm to 110mm thickness of insulator layer to the floor thermal layers will correct the major non-compliance in the floor construction and enhance thermal comfort of the shelters.

Published: May 2022

Indigofera spicata has been used by Kamba community of Kenya as an herbal medicine over a long period to treat coughs and toothaches. There is scanty information on the phytochemical compounds and the antimicrobial activity of Indigofera spicata plant extracts on Candida albicans, Streptococcus mutans and E. coli, which are known to cause many opportunistic infections to humans. This study aimed at investigating the phytochemical compounds and antimicrobial activity of Indigofera spicata leaves, roots and bark extracts against Candida albicans, Streptococcus mutans and E. coli. Plants were collected and plant parts dried separately and crushed to obtain a fine powder which was used to extract the crude extracts using methanol solvent.  Plant samples were subjected to qualitative phytochemical tests for the identification of chemical constituents present using standard qualitative methods.  Phytochemical constituents were analyzed by thin layer chromatography (TLC) in appropriate solvents (n-hexane and methanol, 3:1). The plates were observed under UV lamp at wavelength of 540nm, and Rf values were calculated for each spot. 5mm diameter paper discs were each dipped in a known concentration of the extracts of 0% (distilled water), 25%, 50% and 75% methanol extracts for 2 minutes and placed in either PDA or nutrient agar inoculated with the test organisms. Three discs were placed per petri dish and were incubated at 28 degrees and 48 hours for fungi and 37 degrees for 18-24 hours for bacteria. The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized design in the incubator.  The growth diameter of inhibition was measured with a ruler. Data obtained on zone of inhibition was subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) by use of SAS statistical package. The methanolic extracts of the plants revealed the presence of tannins, sterols, alkaloids, saponins and terpenoids. However cardiac glycosides, phenols and flavonoids were absent in all the plant parts. Terpenoids were present in the stems and roots. Elution of the column with the n-hexane and methanol led to isolation of uncharacterized active compounds, three in leaves and stems, and two in roots. There were significant differences (p<0.05) between the extract concentrations, plant parts and the test microorganisms used. The leaves had the highest inhibitory effects at 75% methanol extract, i.e (5.7+0.2 mm, 6.8+0.2 mm and 8.3+0.7 mm growth diameter of Candida albicans, Streptococcus mutans and Escherichia coli respectively) compared to roots (5.7+0.2 mm, 6.0+0.3 mm and 7.0+0.3 mm growth diameter of Candida albicans, Streptococcus mutans and Escherichia coli respectively) and stem (5.8+0.2 mm, 5.3+0.2 mm and 7.7+0.2 mm growth diameter of Candida albicans, Streptococcus mutans and Escherichia coli respectively). The study suggests the potential of the plant as a source of new antimicrobial agents.

Published: May 2022

Listeriosis, mostly caused by ubiquitous Listeria spp., notably L. monocytogenes is a foodborne disease of great public health concern with high mortality and severe symptoms. However, it is greatly underreported and diagnosed. Using standard microbiological procedures (EN ISO 11290-12017) and Kirby-Bauer antimicrobial disk diffusion method, the prevalence and antibiogram profile of listerial contaminants from four cattle farms were assessed. A total of 160 samples, 40 samples per farm comprising ten samples each of cattle dung, feed, milk and water were collected. Of the total studied samples, 20.63% (33/160) were positive for listerial contaminants. Farm A (6.88%; 11/160) and cattle feed samples (33%; 13/40) accounted for the highest prevalence among farm and sample type, respectively. Seven different species of Listeria were isolated with L. monocytogenes being the most prevalent (42.42%; 14/33) and L. welshimeri and L. grayi the least prevalent (6.06%; 2/33). 28.57% (4/14) of L. monocytogenes isolates harbored the hlyA virulence gene. A high antimicrobial-resistant rate and MAR index range of 0.07-0.73 to tested antibiotics, including to last-resort drugs, was observed in this study. L. monocytogenes isolates were 100% susceptible to Clarithromycin, with high resistance observed to nalidixic acid (100%), streptomycin (64.29%) and ofloxacin (42.86%). This study findings revealed a significant level of listerial contamination in cattle farm samples. The presence of Listeria spp., especially antimicrobial-resistant L. monocytogenes is a cause for alarm. Appropriate regulatory and monitoring authorities are encouraged to sensitize cattle-breeders and consumers appropriately and step-up checks in the sales of cattle products in Lafia.

Se partió de los datos de la encuesta sobre investigación y desarrollo tecnológico ESIDET, realizada por el INEGI en 2017 a nivel nacional a 12,159 empresas y 1,045 instituciones. La variable dependiente de interés fue la capacidad de patentar y la predictora los niveles de madurez tecnológica de las organizaciones. Los resultados mostraron en la clasificación de las entidades federativas en conglomerados en función de la capacidad de patentar, una gran heterogeneidad en el número de organizaciones con madurez en la gestión tecnológica para registrar patentes, con una fuerte concentración en la CDMX. El análisis de regresión lineal múltiple mostró que la capacidad de registrar patentes está en función de la capacidad de asimilar y modificar tecnologías, lo cual es congruente con la tendencia de la innovación abierta, empleando las fuentes externas de conocimiento.
Estrés laboral y trastornos adictivos en empleados en trabajo desde casa: Una aproximación mediante el modelo JD-R
Authors: Hernández Tenorio Belen Montserrat
Published: May 2022

Desde la oficina en casa (home office), se puede realizar casi el mismo trabajo que en una oficina tradicional. Sin embargo, la falta de interacción social asociada al teletrabajo es nociva para la salud y el bienestar emocional. Aunado a ello, de acuerdo con el Modelo JD-R, cuando las demandas percibidas del trabajo superan a los recursos para llevarlo a cabo, los empleados experimentan estrés. El estrés laboral podría incrementar la necesidad de compensaciones psicológicas que pueden desembocar en el desarrollo de adiciones. En este contexto, el propósito de este artículo fue analizar la relación entre el estrés laboral y los trastornos adictivos. La hipótesis de trabajo se probó en una muestra de 45 sujetos que respondieron un cuestionario en línea sobre las características del teletrabajo. Los resultados indican que existen dos tipos de estrés, según el modelo JD-R, que estarían correlacionados positivamente con los trastornos adictivos. Entre los trastornos adictivos hallados en la muestra se encuentran las compras, el uso de redes sociales y el tabaco.

Authors:   Financial University under the Government of Russia, Adamiya Tamara T.
Published: May 2022

Nowadays in conditions of instability of global processes and crisis phenomena, initiators of infrastructure projects are increasingly paying attention to new financial and debt instruments and mechanisms that were previously applied not so much to infrastructure as to consumer products and ensuring the commercial activities of companies. The involvement of a mass investor, a solvent population, in investment processes makes it possible to diversify capital sources, attract the final beneficiaries of infrastructure to the implementation of projects, and the issuance of bonds for a specific project or the implementation of an investment program, as a whole, makes it possible to ensure stable debt financing and maturity management on the part of the issuer. The study presents the experience and real cases of developed countries and considers features and possibilities of implementing infrastructure projects in the Russian Federation using the «new money» tool - crowdfunding.

The article provides a qualitative and quantitative diagnostics of the OECD unified approach to the taxation of transnational companies in the context of the digitalization of the economy. An analysis of a sample of the world’s largest companies by consolidated revenue and the application of the author’s methodology for calculating tax revenues made it possible to determine the expected revenues for Russia from the implementation of the OECD proposal. The proposed methodology can be used to assess the attractiveness of the proposal for forecasting tax revenues for the Russian budget for planning periods. Key challenges are identified that prevent the application of new rules to a larger number of companies and the formation of a larger tax base to be distributed between the countries where users are located.
