Authors: Martínez-Murciano María Carmen , Pérez-Jorge David
Published: July 2024

Computational thinking (CT) is increasingly encouraged in subjects such as technology and digitalisation, and robotics. The effect on the development of generic competencies is of interest. This study investigates the use and effect of Scratch and App Inventor on the development of skills and competencies associated with CP (self-efficacy, motivation, creativity, collaborative work, algorithmic thinking, communication and social interaction) in primary education. A systematic review of articles in English and Spanish was conducted using the PRISMA statement, in the Web of Science (WOS), Dialnet and SCOPUS databases, obtaining 425 papers, from which 10 were finally selected. The results showed that both Scratch and App Inventor favour the development of skills and competencies for learning in the context of primary education and that these are underused strategies that should be promoted from the first years of compulsory education.

Published: July 2024

La población mayor de 65 años aumentará considerablemente en 2050, y la tecnología puede respaldar su independencia, prevenir el deterioro funcional o cognitivo, limitar las enfermedades crónicas y promover un envejecimiento activo. Sin embargo, las personas mayores necesitan competencias digitales para utilizar la tecnología de manera efectiva. Este documento tiene como objetivo analizar los beneficios, oportunidades y limitaciones del uso de la tecnología, cómo afecta a las competencias digitales, qué tipo de tecnologías son las más utilizadas por las personas mayores y cómo podemos ayudarlas a adquirir competencias digitales. El método es una revisión sistemática de la literatura. La literatura se buscó en las bases de datos Scopus y Web of Science publicadas entre 2013 y 2023 utilizando el método PRISMA. De los 979 artículos encontrados, 15 eran elegibles para el análisis, pero excluimos tres revisiones sistemáticas relacionadas. Los artículos revisados mostraron que algunas limitaciones cognitivas, físicas y motoras en los adultos mayores dificultan el uso de la tecnología, y algunos ancianos necesitan apoyo de familiares o amigos. Pero, si la tecnología se adapta a sus necesidades, las personas mayores pueden volverse digitalmente competentes. Los resultados destacan el impacto positivo de las redes sociales en la salud de la población senior al reducir la soledad y el aislamiento y adquirir competencias digitales.

Towards a Phenomenology of Awe: Suspension of Disbelief for the Moment and Takarazuka Revue’s Sublimation of Ruptures
Authors: Grajdian M. M.
Published: July 2024

This paper aims at critically observing the alternating concatenation of seasonally inspired numbers and Japanese legends from time immemorial in the show Sekkashō (「雪華抄」, Snowflake Anthology), staged by the Japanese all-female musical company Takarazuka Revue’s Flower Troupe in late 2016. The goal is to disclose some of the strategies employed by Takarazuka Revue’s administrators in pursuing a necessary agenda of breaking with the tradition while steadily moving forward towards a future of self-reinvention, without disappointing the deeply conservative fans’ vast community. The analysis occurs both historically and systematically: on the one hand, the year 2016 was a “bridge” year between 2015, with its two major reconfigurations of the decadelong image of Takarazuka Revue as a bastion of shōjo culture firmly anchored in a delusional past and its stubborn rejection of common sense as well as historical reality, and 2017, with its blatant reconfiguration of soft power priorities in terms of theatrical representation; on the other hand, Sekkashō itself is a symbolical gem of Takarazuka Revue’s most typical features, signifying an effective yet dignified statement of not so much criticizing the past, but releasing oneself from its almighty grasp so that one can change the direction of the present towards a type of future different than the familiar flows of history so far.
Competition Between Japanese and Chinese Infrastructure Projects in Mongolia
Authors: Kulneva P. V.
Published: July 2024

Mongolia is a landlocked country in East Asia, which has a number of advantages related to its geographical location, abundance of natural resources, openness to foreign capital, and dynamic development due to the market reforms carried out in the 1990s. This determines the interest in the country from China and Japan and the inclusion of Mongolia among the platforms of global competition between these largest Asian economies.

Development of Japan-Mongolia and China-Mongolia political and economic relations in the second half of the 20th century and Mongolia’s economic progress in recent decades have coincided with increasing competition between Japan and China in the world stage. At present, both countries are important trading partners for Mongolia and sources of capital needed to build its infrastructure and integrate it into global supply and production chains. The study of Sino-Japanese interaction in Mongolia may help us understand how Japan and China compete with each other in the world stage and to specify their areas of specialization and rivalry.

The objective of this research is to show, taking infrastructure projects as an example, how the global competition between Japan and China unfolds in Mongolia. In order to evaluate the current state of economic relations between Mongolia and each of the countries, in the first part, the author traces the history of Japan-Mongolia and China-Mongolia relations from the establishment of diplomatic relations to the present time, focusing on infrastructure projects.

The second part analyzes the interaction between Japan and China in Mongolia in the context of their growing economic competition. The study sheds light on particular areas of rivalry, while demonstrating that Japanese and Chinese projects not only compete but also complement each other.
On the History of the Japanese Book: Two Illustrated Woodcut Editions of the Seiashō (Notes by a Frog From a Well) by Poet Tonna (1289–1372)
Authors: Toropygina M. V.
Published: July 2024

Secular book printing began to spread in Japan since the beginning of the 17th century. From the middle of the 17th century, woodcut was completely dominant. The repertoire of publications was wide, including old texts written long before the Tokugawa period. Since commercial printing assumed that the book would be bought, only relevant old texts were published. The printed edition significantly expanded the circle of book readers. The Seiashō (Notes by a Frog from a Well) by Tonna (1289–1372) belongs to the karon genre (treatises on poetry) and is a guide for aspiring poets writing waka (Japanese songs). The text was published for the first time in 1648 and the first illustrated edition appeared in 1686, reprinted in 1709. The illustrator is believed to be Hishikawa Moronobu (1618–1694), although the book does not contain the artist’s name. The second illustrated edition dates back to 1752. This edition uses illustrations by Tachibana Morikuni (1679–1748). In both editions, illustrations are made on separate sheets, occupying a whole page. The illustrations are monochrome and include a drawing (a landscape illustrating the text of the poem) and an inscription of the poem at the top. An analysis and comparison of these two editions makes it possible to see some trends related to both printing itself and a number of more general cultural issues. The understanding of authorship receives a “visible” embodiment: in the first edition, neither the author of the text, nor the artist are identified, while the colophon of the second edition contains the names of both. During the time that has elapsed between the release of these two editions, the role of illustrations has grown significantly. The edition from the end of the 17th century contains 24 illustrations, and the book was made in such a way that it can exist in a version without illustrations; there, illustrations play a supporting role. The edition of the mid-18th century contains 80 illustrations, and they can be distributed in the text of the book or concentrated in one place, making this edition close to the ehon books.

The impact of macroeconomic policy on the financialisaton of the real economy: From the perspective of joint fiscal and monetary policy
Authors: Li Zhuwei , Han Yirao , Zhang Yu
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of macroeconomic policies, especially fiscal and monetary policies, on the financialisaton of the real economy. The panel data models are employed to explore how national policies could curb the adverse trend of financialisaton. The empirical analysis reveals that fiscal and monetary policies are significantly correlated with the degree of financialization. Specifically, tight fiscal policies and loose monetary policies tend to deepen the financialization of the real economy, while the opposite can alleviate it. It is recommended to formulate differentiated fiscal policies and adopt structural monetary policies to mitigate the financialization of the real economy. These insights can guide policymakers in designing strategies that promote the healthy development of the real economy.

Authors: Ayobade Adebowale , Ajuwon Oluseye , Saibu Olufemi
Published: July 2024

This paper analyzed socioeconomic characteristics of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) that have implications for employment and income generation potentials in Osun and Oyo states of southwestern Nigeria. The paper used multistage sampling technique to identify and collect data from 1020 SMEs, analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical technique. The result showed that gender bias inhibits both income and employment generating potentials, with male dominance over female dominance hindering female ability to pivot and reduce poverty among business owners while age has a significant positive effect on employment generation but not a significant factor in generating revenue. Marital status has a negative effect on job creation but not significant in their income-generating potential. Labour regulation and access to credit are the two most significant institutional factors affecting MSMEs' income and employment generating potentials. Religion does not appear to be a significant component in boosting income-generating potential and education is seen as having a negligible negative influence. Financial difficulties are the greatest restriction for MSMEs in Osun and Oyo states while taxation and government policy have a positive impact on income generation potential, as compliance with official rules encourages firms to explore government incentives.

Menggugat Konsensus (Ijma') Keharaman Bunga Bank
Authors: Suparman Suparman  , Suwardi Suwardi  , Saini Saini
Published: July 2024

One of the Islamic economic discourses that is often claimed to be the consensus of scholars (ijma') is the prohibition of bank interest, as evidenced by several statements and writings of contemporary Islamic economic experts. However, it is also a fact that there are many differing opinions among scholars regarding the law on bank interest. This raises several questions: Is the claim of ijma' on the prohibition of bank interest in accordance with the theory of ushul fiqh? Can it be considered ijma' when some scholars have different opinions? These questions can only be answered through an ushul fiqh approach by researching and understanding the normative study on the concept of ijma', which is extensively explained in ushul fiqh books. The conclusion derived from this study is that the ijma' on the prohibition of bank interest does not align with the principles of ushul fiqh. Therefore, it is more prudent not to dismiss the opinions of some scholars who justify bank interest. In other words, we can say that the prohibition of bank interest is the opinion of the majority of scholars, but it is not an ijma' as many people believe.

The instruments used in this study were observations, interviews, field notes and documentation. The data collected is by interview technique. Based on the analysis conducted, it was found that the Baduy people can speak Indonesian and use Indonesian to communicate with tourists. Apart from that, we also analyze that the Baduy people learn Indonesian from their parents and tourists because they don't go to school. The effectiveness of using Indonesian makes the communication that exists between the Baduy people and tourists run smoothly and better. In this study, researchers tried to interact with 9 Baduy people and 7 of them stated that almost 20% were fluent in Indonesian, 50% could speak Indonesian but were not fluent and 30% of the Baduy people passively used Indonesian. Based on the results of data analysis, it can be seen that approximately 70% of the Baduy people can use Indonesian well and can interact fluently with tourists or outsiders. As explained above, being said to be effective means successfully conveying the message each speaker raises. This can make it easier to communicate and interact easily with outsiders besides the Baduy because not all tourists can use the native language of the Baduy tribe, namely Sundanese. With the effective use of Indonesian it is very clear that it can help to communicate easily and fluently.
