Authors: Melnikova E. A.
Published: July 2020

The article analyzes the current state and world experience of the waste management sphere, identifies the reasons for incinerators development, identifies and classifies the main mechanisms for returning investments in their construction. The necessity of building incineration plants in Russia is demonstrated.

Has been given a critical analysis of the plan of new waste incineration plants development in Russia. Has been made an inference about their environmental safety and the possibility of equating this type of generation theoretically and legislatively.to renewable.

A qualitative and quantitative analysis of the planned method of return on investment was carried out. It was established that the use of power supply agreements as a mechanism for the return on investment is impractical. Rational methods of return on investment were identified: the mechanism of free bilateral agreements, inclusion in the structure of regime facilities and combining the selling of electricity in the balancing market and the day-ahead market with the selling of utilization services. The combination method turned out to be optimal, recommendations for its usage are given.

Thus, the article developed recommendations on the usage of mechanisms for the return on investment in the incinerators development in Russia by selling electricity and power.

Comeditation: A Thanatological Aid
Authors: Boerstler Richard
Published: July 2020

Ancient traditions have employed powerful meditative practices at the time of death. This article explores one of these practices originating in Tibetan medicine,which relied upon specially trained practitioners in the science of consciousness. The goal is to maintain "clear mind and peaceful heart," which is accomplished by sharing a meditational breathing technique that brings about a deep state of relaxation. Studies in autonomic nervous system response and in the physiology of pain indicate that stress reduction is becoming a necessary modality in modern health care.

This article describes a breathing and meditative procedure called "comeditation" to deal with anxieties and stress associated with life-threatening illness. This method involves no religious belief system and brings some of the psychological effects of the meditative state to patients who have never meditated. The meditative practices described in this article were transmitted through the Clear Light Society, Boston, Massachusetts(Patricia Shelton Harvey, executive director). I offer these techniques to deal with the pain and anxieties that may flood one's consciousness during a life-threatening illness. The methods can be used by anyone, sick or healthy,who wants to center his or her spinning mind and achieve serenity.

Yoga as a Preventative and Treatment for Depression, Anxiety, and Stress
Authors: Campbell Debra , Moore Kathleen
Published: July 2020

With the dual aims of better understanding the contribution of Yoga to positive mental health and exploring links between yogic philosophy and psychological theory,researchers at Deakin University in Melbourne,Australia, conducted a study on Yoga as a preventative and treatment for symptoms of mental illness. The Yoga classes were designed as a six-week program incorporating breathing techniques (prânâyâma), exercises for strength, vitality, and flexibility (âsanas), guided relaxation(yoga-nidrâ), and meditation. The aim of this process was to enhance self-awareness, encourage the perspective that emotional states are somewhat transient,and encourage a self-accepting and calm attitude through concentrating on synchronizing gentle movements and breathing. By developing calmness, selfacceptance,a balanced perspective, and enhanced concentration it was hypothesized that participants in the six-week Yoga program would strengthen their resistance to emotional distress. Psychometric testing was carried out to assess symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression across three groups: regular Yoga practitioners,beginners entering the program, and people who did not practice Yoga, and these tests were re-administered after six weeks. In addition, a strong sense of intrinsic spiritual experience has been cited as a possible buffer to stress, anxiety, and depression and has been associated with decreased frequency of medical symptoms. All participants were therefore also assessed on their sense of intrinsic spirituality, but not on religious beliefs. At the end of six weeks, the Yoga beginners group showed lower average levels of symptoms of depression, anxiety,and stress than at commencement, but levels were stable for regular Yoga practitioners and people who did not practice Yoga. In addition, beginners showed growth in their self-reported level of intrinsic spiritual experience.
The Future of Yoga Therapy: Visibility and Vision
Authors: Zador Veronica
Published: July 2020

I have often thought that the role of a teacher is to become invisible. And yet increasingly, I find that Yoga is far from invisible in its influence on our culture. Therefore, we might, from time to time, reflect on the tide of our history, the demands we place on ourselves, and the perceptions our culture projects upon us.
Why Do Yoga Research: Who Cares and What Good Is It?
Authors: Singh Khalsa Sat Bir
Published: July 2020

Although IAYT's publications include both original research and summaries of research published in other peer-reviewed journals, the question of why we should be involved in research on Yoga in the first place is a valid one. Full-time research on Yoga or Yoga therapy involves substantial resources both in labor and in costs. For example, a small Yoga therapy clinical trial grant from the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) requires substantial involvement of trained scientists and Yoga instructors and can cost the taxpayer over a half-million dollars. Yet all of this cost and effort will yield but one small publishable preliminary study. These resources might easily be devoted elsewhere for the public good, perhaps through providing more Yoga classes to underserved populations.

Focusing too narrowly on Yoga therapy as a treatment for diagnosed conditions overlooks the population most likely to seek out Yoga therapy: those interested in wellness, health maintenance, and prevention. This article highlights the potential harm of fashioning Yoga therapy and Yoga therapist training after the fix-it treatment model offered by allopathic medicine, and describes the benefits of focusing on the needs of wellness-seeking clients.
Ethical Decision-Making for Yoga Teachers and Yoga Therapists
Authors: Parker Stephen
Published: July 2020

Any therapeutic profession, including Yoga therapy, must establish a systematic way to make ethical decisions. This article proposes a model of ethical decision-making drawn from psychotherapy, a field that—like Yoga therapy— recognizes relationship as a healing instrument. The model proposed is based on an easily remembered mnemonic that is both practical and easily internalized for real-life decision-making. A real case study using this method is presented and discussed, and hypothetical ethical dilemmas in Yoga therapy are offered for further consideration.
Ahimsa and Awareness: Core Principles Overlooked in Yoga Therapy
Authors: Hanson Monica
Published: July 2020

Yoga therapy in the West is becoming synonymous with diagnosing, prescribing, and treating illness. What is striking about the focus on illness is the degree to which it overlooks and undervalues the core principles of Yoga. The most startling omissions in Yoga therapy discussions, research, and protocols are the principles of ahimsa (nonharming) and awareness as sources of healing and well-being. The intention of this article is to remind our Yoga therapy community of these values, which they already hold, and provide examples of what they look like in action.

Mantra and the Energetics of Sound
Authors: Frawley David
Published: July 2020

Language is our medium of expression, which we depend upon for most of what we do, whether in the ordinary or the spiritual life. Yet language is not a passive or objective medium.

It possesses a certain form or bias relative to the culture that produces it. For this reason, it is not merely enough to use words. We have to understand the nature and the limitations of the language in which they are cast. Otherwise, no matter what we may say, our language may distort the meaning and cause it to have results other than what we may have intended.

Healthy thoughts create health; dark, hopeless thoughts make us lose hope and surrender to disease.

Sanskrit and the Yoga Sutras: Certainty of Freedom
Authors: Houston Vyaas
Published: July 2020

In Sanskrit the concept of spiritual freedom exists as a certainty. It exists within the context of an ancient proven science, equally precise as our modern science which has managed to send human beings into outer space and have them actually walk on the moon. For modern science to accomplish that extraordinary feat, there had to first exist the certainty that it was possible. For this to even be considered, there had to be an already existing language, that could gauge the precise requirements to get a vehicle beyond the gravitational field of the earth, find the moon, land, and return.

Periampüller divertikül endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografide kanülasyon başarısı ve komplikasyon sıklığını etkiler mi?
Authors: TOKA Bilal , TOKMAK Salih
Published: July 2020

Giriş ve Amaç: Periampüller divertiküller, endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografi işlemi esnasında özellikle yaşlı hastalarda sık rastlanan anomalilerdir. Periampüller divertiküllerin endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografide teknik başarı ve komplikasyonlar üzerine etkisi ile ilgili yapılan çalışmaların sonuçları ise çelişkilidir. Çalışmamızda periampüller divertikülü olan ve olmayan hastalar arasında endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografi işlemi esnasında kanülasyon başarısı ve erken komplikasyonları karşılaştırmayı ve bunları etkileyen faktörleri değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntem: 2018-2020 yılları arasında endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografi yapılan hastalar retrospektif olarak çalışmaya alındı. Hastalar periampüller divertikülü olmayan (n=574) ve olan (n=137) şeklinde iki gruba ayrıldı. Hastaların tıbbi kayıtları incelenerek her iki grup demografik ve klinik özellikleri, endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografi işlem özellikleri, komplikasyon ve mortalite oranları açısından karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Ortalama yaşı 61.2±17.7, 465’i (%57.3) kadın olan 811 hastaya yapılan toplam 973 endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografi işlemi incelendi. Kanülasyon başarısı periampüller divertikülü olmayan grupta %97, periampüller divertikülü olan grupta %97.1 (p=0.96) saptandı. Endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografide seans sayısı, işlem başarısı, koledok taşı varlığı, taş çıkarmak için büyük balon ile papilla dilatasyon ihtiyacı ve biliyer stent konulma oranları açısından gruplar benzerdi (p >0.05). Periampüller divertikül bulunmayan grupta kanülasyon için ön kesi ihtiyacı daha yüksekti (sırasıyla; %25 vs %14.6, p=0.01). Endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografiye bağlı erken komplikasyonlar açısından ise gruplar arasında farklılık saptanmadı (periampüller divertikülü olmayanlarda n=21, %3.1, periampüller divertikülü olanlarda n=5, %3.6, p=0.75). Sonuç: Endoskopik retrograd kolanjiyopankreatografi esnasında periampüller divertikül saptanması kanülasyon önünde bir engel olarak görülmemeli, hatta ön kesi ihtiyacını azaltarak kanülasyonu kolaylaştırabileceği dikkate alınmalıdır. Çalışmamızın sonuçları periampüller divertiküllerin varlığının işleme bağlı komplikasyonlar açısından ek risk oluşturmadığını göstermektedir.

A 19-year-old male patient with cystic fibrosis was commenced an antibiotic regimen containing tigecycline with the diagnosis of acute bronchitis. On the 12th day of the treatment, severe epigastric abdominal pain and nausea appeared, and pancreatic enzyme levels increased 10 times more than normal. After eliminating other causes of pancreatitis, tigecycline treatment was discontinued, and the patient's clinical condition improved and laboratory findings returned to normal gradually. Clinicians should be careful when using tigecycline, especially in patients with high risk of developing pancreatitis, such as cystic fibrosis.
Greater Eurasia: In Search of a Legal Order
Authors: Butler William , Entin Mark , Entina Entina , Torkunova Ekaterina
Published: July 2020

The correlation of national, supranational, trans-regional, and internationallegal systems is a concern of comparative legal (including their political science andinternational relations aspects) studies because it has decisive influence on how Statesposition themselves within the family of nations, perceive themselves in the surroundingworld community, and build relations with other nations, international organizations,and the international community as a whole. At the same time, the correlation hasimmense pragmatic significance, for it is the essential basis for determining which of themulti-level management legal systems operates and/or prevails when the rules bindingon individuals, societies, businesses, civil services, international organizations, andinterstate communities are formed within or outside of national jurisdictions. Study ofthis correlation is of particular importance in the context of the growing complexity ofthe international legal field and multilevel management systems, as well as in the lightof current trends in the development of international economic and political processes.On the one hand, the growing international confrontation and misuse of internationallegal instruments are forcing States to take measures to protect their internal law systems.On the other hand, the need to build harmonious international cooperation requiresthem to open their legal systems to some extent. The article discusses the experience ofvarious integration structures in this context. The authors claim that the project of theGreater Eurasia has the advantage of sharing a common Soviet legal heritage, whichalready establishes a common legal language and cohesive terminology – factors thathave, for example, restrained EU integration efforts. Whatever the CIS may or may nothave achieved, meeting expectations or otherwise, it represents nearly three decades of integration experience.
Модель не-Запада: существует ли государство-цивилизация?
Authors: Наумкин Виталий
Published: July 2020

В статье анализируются некоторые аспекты цивилизационизма как тренда в самопозиционировании ряда отдельных стран Востока, в первую очередь – Китая и Индии, но также и ряда других. Подробно рассматривается концепция государства-цивилизации (ГЦ), отличного от государства-нации (ГН), позволяющая раскрыть особенности ведущих крупных государств не-Запада. В первую очередь, эти особенности обусловлены протяженностью их истории, глубокой укорененностью традиционных культурных кодов в сознании их народов и правящих элит, неприятием универсализма и любых попыток навязать им стратегию заимствования тех или иных чуждых им ценностных норм. Делается вывод о соответствии России параметрам категории ГЦ (в форме, сопрягающей воедино этот тип государства с типом ГН). Показано, что отдельные государства в этой системе координат занимают промежуточное положение, обладая лишь некоторыми предпосылками для включения в число государств-цивилизаций. Этот вывод иллюстрируется примерами ряда государств Арабского Востока. Выявлены две различные интерпретации понятия цивилизационизма в описании характера рассматриваемых государств и их политических практик. Авторы, представляющие интересы политических элит самих ГЦ, акцентируют моральное и культурное превосходство ГЦ в ответ на эксклюзивистские притязания Запада на глобальное лидерство, а также продвигают тезис об “ответственном” подходе ГЦ к управлению обществом и решению глобальных проблем. В то же время для их противников цивилизационизм – синоним авторитаризма, несоблюдения прав меньшинств, политической архаики и национального эгоизма. Автор рассматривает концепцию ГЦ не только как орудие идейно-политической борьбы, но и как полезный инструмент выявления реально существующих отличий данных государств от идеальных моделей, основанных на принципах неолиберальной демократии и универсализма.
Идеальные представления как фактор восприятия реального политического лидера
Authors: Шестопал Елена , Рогач Николай
Published: July 2020

Статья посвящена идеальным представлениям российских граждан о президенте и их воздействию на восприятие реального лидера. До сих пор предпринимались лишь единичные попытки разработки данной темы в рамках отдельных опросов, политико-психологический анализ проводится впервые. В теоретической части статьи проанализированы идеальные представления в контексте различных политологических, психологических и социологических концепций. Избранный авторами подход базируется на теории политического восприятия. Статья построена на результатах двух эмпирических исследований, проведенных авторами осенью 2019 г. В первом изучался образ идеального президента в массовом сознании россиян, во втором – образ действующего президента России В.В. Путина. В эмпирической части статьи эти два типа образов описываются и сравниваются между собой по трем шкалам: привлекательности, силы и активности. Результаты исследования позволили выявить личностные и функционально-ролевые характеристики образа идеального президента, показать формы взаимодействия между идеальными и реальными образами, установить укорененность образа идеального президента в глубинных слоях российской политической культуры.
Место России в мире в восприятии рядовых граждан: идентификационное измерение
Authors: Евгеньева Татьяна , Смулькина Наталья , Цымбал Ирина
Published: July 2020

Статья базируется на результатах исследования, реализуемого на кафедре социологии и психологии политики факультета политологии МГУ им. М.В. Ломоносова, по выявлению закономерностей формирования и образно-символической специфики представлений российских граждан о своей и других странах, их взаимодействии в общемировом пространстве. Изучая содержание и структурные особенности этих представлений, мы можем определить характер и степень кристаллизации национально-государственной идентичности. В основе исследования лежит комплексная аналитическая модель, предполагающая изучение трех аспектов восприятия места России в современном мире. Первый – представления о России, пространственные и темпоральные характеристики, служащие отражением самоидентификации респондента в качестве российского гражданина. Второй – система образов и символов, репрезентирующих представления респондентов о мировом пространстве, месте в нем государств и регионов, особенностях их взаимодействия и взаимовлияния. Третий – символическая репрезентация восприятия отдельных стран через их отношения с Россией. Методология эмпирического исследования базируется на сочетании количественных и качественных методов: формализованное интервью, проективные методики. Разработанная модель исследования позволила выявить не только взаимосвязь между пространственными и темпоральными аспектами процесса восприятия, но также их место в структуре идентичности личности. Национально-государственная идентичность респондентов отражается в оценках своей и других стран, в качестве субъектного фактора определяет восприятие места России в мировом пространстве, формирует образы прошлого и будущего.

Principio de precaución en la acción de tutela. Casos ambientales colombianos
Authors: Ariza-Sánchez Andrea Carolina
Published: July 2020

El principio de precaución, pretende prevenir daños o afectaciones al medio ambiente, bien jurídico de máxima protección, debido a la vulneración a la que se encuentra sometido y su relación con la existencia de la vida humana. Su introducción a la normatividad nacional ha permitido otorgar herramientas de interpretación a los operadores judiciales al momento de desatar problemas jurídicos ambientales. Por ello, resulta importante analizar cómo ha sido su aplicación y desarrollo en la acción de tutela por parte de la Corte Constitucional. Para resolver esta problemática, se tomó la metodología del estudio de casos, en la que fueron seleccionados distintos fallos judiciales para poder determinar los postulados hermenéuticos de aplicación del principio de precaución, con el fin de establecer posibles soluciones a casos futuros y analizar su impacto dentro de la solución de estas problemáticas ambientales. De este análisis se concluye la importancia del abordaje del principio de precaución para robustecer los lineamientos jurisprudenciales permitiendo solucionar casos ambientales en distintas acciones constitucionales, en las que se demuestra el compromiso ambiental de Colombia frente a los compromisos internacionales. Este artículo representa un valor importante para los académicos, operadores judiciales, abogados y accionantes, al delimitar los distintos escenarios de aplicación del principio de precaución, resaltando los parámetros de interpretación y aportando a las bases argumentativas para sostener posturas en los casos ambientales.

Protection against imposing unfavorable contract terms by the dominant party in the russian legislation: issues of ensuring the balance of convenience
Authors: Pisenko Kirill Andreevich , Botvinnik Stanislav Lvovich
Published: July 2020

Legal issues of counteracting the imposition of unfavorable contract terms by the dominant party raise a number of theoretical and practical problems. The authors of the article try to determine the legal nature of imposition and develop methods of comprehensive counteraction to this violation in order to ensure the balance of convenience. From the philosophical perspective and a certain worldview, the study is based on the balance of convenience regarded as the objective foundation of legal regulation. The main philosophical and scientific methods used in this article include the dialectic method, the formal-legal method, the method of legal hermeneutics, as well as the comparative-legal and empirical methods. The theoretical basis is represented by scientific works in the field of civil, administrative, entrepreneurial and procedural branches of law. The legal nature of imposition as a type of violation should be determined with due regard to the general logic of antitrust regulation. The parallel use of both public and private law necessitates the development of procedural legal means ensuring uniform law enforcement and the balance of convenience. First of all, the unity of approaches regarding legal tools of public and civil law should be concerned with the definition of features and the essence of elements compiling the imposition itself. The authors also propose approaches to the formation of an appropriate procedural model.

El conflicto armado colombiano es reconocido mundialmente por ser uno de los más antiguos del planeta y por haber intentado diferentes iniciativas para solucionarlo; en relación con ello este trabajo empírico y transversal aporta nueva información sobre la intención de los empresarios nacionales por participar en acciones económicas destinadas a legitimar jurídicamente la construcción de paz. Los resultados obtenidos mediante una muestra de 482 micro, pequeñas y medianas empresas (Mipymes) del país indican que existe mayor propensión por apoyar a las víctimas que a los excombatientes en cuanto a generarles empleo y vincularse a sus emprendimientos, siendo notoriamente baja la disposición de contribuir a conformar un fondo para financiar actividades para consolidar el post acuerdo. Se concluye que es necesario evitar la polarización, y sensibilizar más a los gerentes y empresarios sobre la importancia de su rol para construir una estabilidad social y política duradera. Teniendo presente que la cultura de la paz juega un papel muy relevante en el progreso económico y democrático de Colombia en el mundo globalizado.
Applying a specific contractual structure in favor of a third party to a passenger carriage contract
Authors: Fedotova Diana Sergeevna
Published: July 2020

The article considers the possibility of drawing a passenger carriage contract based on the model of beneficiary contracts. In the case of the conclusion by organizations of carriage contracts for organized groups of passengers, a specific contractual structure in favor of a third party may be applied. Minor children can be considered third parties in whose favor a passenger carriage contract is concluded. The contradictions of the current civil legislation regarding the consideration of minor children as passengers have been revealed. The methodological basis of the study includes the following methods. A systematic approach is used to identify the role and place of the passenger carriage contract in the system of civil law contracts, as well as contradictions in civil law. Comparison is actively used to identify similarities and differences in the legal regulation of the passenger carriage contract under the legislation of various countries. Legal modeling is used in the analysis of specific contractual structures, which are legal models, and in modeling the structure of the passenger carriage contract. Methods of formal and dialectic logic are used as well. The contribution to the study of the issue is associated with the scientific justification of the need to improve the legal structure of the passenger carriage contract according to the contract model in favor of a third party.
Reglas para la operación de la cláusula de terminación unilateral
Authors: Marrugo Saldarriaga Katherine
Published: July 2020

La dogmática jurídica tradicional colombiana enseña que los principios fundamentales del contrato privado constituyen la autonomía privada de las partes y la fuerza ejecutoria del contrato. No obstante, respecto a las formas de terminación del mismo, a pesar de que algunos sectores de la doctrina no comparten la idea de que las partes tengan posibilidad de pactar una cláusula que permita un acto o declaración de voluntad de una de las partes, de dar por terminado el contrato anticipadamente y de pleno derecho; la cual en el tráfico contractual es una práctica común. Bajo este escenario, el objetivo principal de este escrito consiste en establecer los requisitos para la redacción y para el ejercicio de dichas cláusulas, con el fin de contribuir a minimizar los riesgos de abuso y violatorios del principio de Buena Fe. Para este fin se abordó la revisión de reglas de operación en la doctrina colombiana, para continuar con el estudio de seis cláusulas de terminación unilateral pactadas en la práctica contractual. Del análisis conjunto de la información sustraída de estas fuentes, se identificó que a pesar de la existencia de reglas desarrolladas en la doctrina para la elaboración de las cláusulas, las mismas no necesariamente coinciden con el nivel de creatividad y discrecionalidad de los particulares; razón por la cual, este trabajo contiene reglas generales conciliatorias entre las identificadas en la doctrina y las formuladas por la autonomía de los contratantes.
Legal challenges posed by the war on drugs and the fight against organized crime in Colombia
Authors: Perret Antoine , García Ruth Cristina
Published: July 2020

This article aims to highlight the evolution of crime in Colombia and how it is a drawback to the current understanding of the applicability of international humanitarian law. The peace agreement between the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia-FARC, the government and the emerging armed actors are a challenge to Colombian law and legal institutions. Accordingly, the article concluded that the use of force by the Colombian government against drug trafficking organizations, or so-called Criminal Gangs-BACRIM, does not seem to be the legal way to combat them since these organizations do not necessarily participate in hostilities, which means that the government has to follow a specific procedure.

Published: July 2020

The article is devoted to the analysis of various approaches to the protection of personal data in Russia and the European Union. In order to determine the importance of observing the right to protection of personal data, a number of documents of the European Commission adopted over the past few years have been analyzed. General scientific and special legal methods of cognition allowed for a comparative analysis of Regulation 2016/679 on the Protection of Individuals in the Processing of Personal Data and Their Free Movement (2018) and EU Directive 2016/680. Although Russia has ratified the Council of Europe Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data (1981), it has not been able to solve a number of problems related to the mandatory notification about personal data leaks, protection of personal data during their processing and against unauthorized access, etc. As a result, conclusions are drawn regarding the prevailing approaches to the definition of personal data and a unified conceptual and categorical apparatus in the field of personal data. Proposals for the modernization of Russian legislation based on international experience are made as well.
