Costos de actividades de promoción y prevención, y de los 15 principales motivos de consulta en Santa Fe de Bogotá
Authors: Portella Andrea , Rojas David Andrés , Gutiérrez Martha Cielo , Pedraza Francisco Nicolay
Published: October 2022

Teniendo en cuenta que la Secretaría Distrital de Salud contrata las actividades de promoción y prevención con los hospitales adscritos a la misma al igual que la atención de distintas patologías, es necesario realizar un estudio de costos, que genere la información requerida para poder establecer las tarifas a las cuales se deben contratar dichas actividades, buscando un beneficio bilateral entre la Secretaría y su red adscrita.El objetivo general de esta investigación está enfocado en determinar los costos de servicios de salud de las actividades de promoción y prevención por grupo evolutivo y establecer los costos de las patologías más frecuentes atendidas en los hospitales de I, II y III nivel de la red adscrita a la Secretaría Distrital de Salud.La metodología a usar en esta investigación tiene la siguiente estructura general:1. Estructurar las actividades de promoción y prevención1 y definir la estructura óptima de actividades que incluye cada patología2.2 Establecer los recursos "óptimos” de las actividades de promoción y prevención por grupo evolutivo y de las que componen a cada patología.3. Definir los factores de los costos indirectos.4. Diseñar y realizar un modelo que permita el costeo de los servicios de salud de estas actividades.Los resultados finales de costos reflejan la situación real de los hospitales, teniendo parámetros donde se optimiza el uso de recursos, pero donde se evidencian las características de los productores, es importante tener en cuenta esta información, únicamente como referencia frente a políticas de optimización del uso de recursos, y como punto de partida en busca de eficiencia organizacional y corporativa, esto tanto para las actividades de promoción y prevención como para los costos de las patologías. Una de las principales conclusiones refleja que los hospitales adscritos a la SDS tienen en la actualidad unos costos muy altos, afectados principalmente por el factor administrativo que manejan estas instituciones sobre su producción, es decir; sobre el costo directo del servido, que de no reestructurarlos difícilmente les permitirá ser rentables o, por lo menos, económicamente sostenibles.
Predicting Performance in an Introductory Agricultural Finance Course
Authors: Hanson Erik , Wachenheim Cheryl
Published: October 2022

Student performance in an introductory agricultural finance class was analyzed via a pre-test, post-test, and additional student information collected from 2018-2021. Regression analysis indicated that several common measures of academic performance and aptitude were linked to post-test scores. As is consistent with the literature, post-test score was positively related to pre-test score and grade point average and, for males, to college-entry standardized test score. Somewhat surprisingly, students that had previously taken an agricultural management class and students interested in an agricultural lending career performed worse than other students. First generation college students performed better on the post-test although this was largely tempered for male first generation students.
With Progressively Virtual Classrooms, How Important Are On-farm Technical Education Opportunities? Students Answer!
Authors: Manlove Jacob , Rich Jerica
Published: October 2022

The purpose of this study is to determine student’s perceived value of on-farm, technical training at a university farm. Specifically, this study evaluates students use and non-use of the university farm and the student’s perception of this use on overall academic competency and career readiness. The target population of the study included all students enrolled within a College of Agriculture. The study uses both an online survey instrument requesting demographic information and uses and value of the farm as well as three focus groups. Results indicate that the primary reasons students do not utilize the farm more include lack of coursework using the farm and lack of available activities utilizing the farm as well as communication. However, students did report that the time and activities they have completed at the farm have been practical, desirable for future employers, and made a value contribution to their education.

Introduction: Children are unique individuals, experience growth and development, and have biological, psychological, and spiritual needs that must be filled. An important period in a child's growth and development is the toddler period because this period is the basic growth that will influence and determine the next child's development. The toddler period shows further motor development with the ability to do more activities, develop curiosity, and explore objects around them. Therefore, the danger or risk of accidents must be watched out for.
Objective: The purpose of this service was to increase the knowledge of health cadres on how to prevent accidents at home in infants and toddlers.
Method: This public service was conducted by cadre training which was held for 3 meetings on 1st, 14th, and 22nd June 2022. The activity began with a pre-test and ended with a post-test.
Result: The pre-test findings showed that as many as 8 cadres (57.14%) had poor knowledge, as many as 6 cadres (42.86%) had sufficient knowledge, and none had good knowledge. The results of the post-test showed that there were no cadres who had less knowledge, sufficient knowledge increased to 8 people (72.73%), and those who had good knowledge were 3 people (27.27%). Based on the results of the pre-test and post-test scores, the average pretest value was 51.07 and the post-test was 75.27
Conclusion: It can be concluded that there is an increase in the knowledge of health cadres on how to prevent accidents at home in infants and toddlers.

Published: October 2022

The main interest was to examine the women’s engagement level and constraints in cassava processing and marketing. The multistage sampling method was adopted in picking 320 respondents. Data was obtained with the help of structured questionnaires and gotten data was analysed using Likert scale, descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The study established that respondents were matured with an average ages of 44 years that were mostly married female gender with low educational levels. Operations of respondents were on full- time with a family size of a 9 persons having 18 years’ experience. The mean of 3.20 revealed that women were actively engaged. Family labour supply was mostly adopted with Osusu (peer contributions) sources of credits by respondents was absence of capital followed by unstable prices/Government unfavourable policies that ranked first (1st) and second (2nd) respectively. The constraints’ economic implication was the loss of revenue (income) and household stress increase, which is dangerous for the economic survival of households, especially women. The study recommends an immediate relief package to cassava processors and marketers by government and NGOs. Also Government and various stake holders should enact favourable policies in enhancing processing and marketing of cassava operations especially in the area of credits.

Published: October 2022

This study described the experiences of social studies students as well as how they managed to stay inclined to learn given the struggles, they faced during the COVID-19 pandemic.  Also, it looked at how social studies students have faced challenges but are still actively pursuing their own dreams during the pandemic. This research employed a qualitative-narrative approach, involving five (5) social studies students. As data collection techniques, students were asked to write narratively using Gibbs reflective cycle. The findings revealed that students' motivation to continue learning during the COVID-19 pandemic was divided into three main themes, each with its own set of categories and subcategories. The three themes and categories described were: (a) personal, with categories of challenges, self-determination, satisfaction and religious commitment; (b) social, with categories of relationships, inspiration, and well-being; and (c) environmental, with categories of breaking in/conditioning and amenities. The themes and categories showed that these social studies students got their inspiration to learn during the pandemic. According to the findings, these students were intrinsically and extrinsically motivated and dedicated to their studies. The majority of these students were spurred by their individual goals, not by a controlled motive, an incentive, a consequence, or a regulation. This study proposes that students be prepared to be more resilient and to build the ability to be hopeful and motivated to succeed and transcend any of life's hardships by defining how they achieved to motivate themselves.
An Analysis of Problems in Housing Ownership and Property Development in Abuja, Nigeria
Authors: Wuyokwe Gombwer Nenrot , Yakubu Suleiman , Inusa Miala Sani
Published: October 2022

Since housing ranks second in the hierarchy of human needs, real estate development and the housing crisis have taken on a significant dimension today. In Abuja, Nigeria, several elements have an impact on these issues. Real estate development may evoke various feelings, depending on one's perspective. Several factors are considered a problem for housing ownership and property development. This study analyzes the problems associated with housing ownership and property development in Abuja, Nigeria. The study used quantitative research; 121 questionnaires were given to real estate developers, and 77 were retrieved and used for analysis. According to the study's findings, the following factors are known to affect residential property development: access to land, funding, exorbitant building material costs, corruption, government policy, high capital costs, high labor costs, Cost of land, mortgage interest rate, building costs, perception of buyers' lack of price control, and household expenditures are further factors. Factors impacting affordability are revealed to be mostly outside of the control of the landowner but are still subject to government regulation. As a result, to provide a solution for this element, the government must improve the welfare of its population concerning housing.
Proposed Physicochemical Standards for the Identity and Quality Characteristics of Philippine Virgin Coconut Oil
Authors: Dayrit Fabian , Tantengco Grace , Opao Philip Gabriel
Published: October 2022

The growth of the virgin coconut oil (VCO) industry over the past few years has highlighted the need to improve VCO standards to promote better quality and detect adulteration. The Philippine National Standard for VCO (PNS/BAFPS 22:2007) has three groups of parameters – identity characteristics, quality characteristics, and contaminant limits. It has only one identity characteristic – the % fatty acid composition, which is based mainly on Codex Stan 210-1999. However, because the fatty acid composition does not distinguish VCO from refined, bleached, and deodorized coconut oil (RBDCO), additional methods are needed to differentiate VCO and RBDCO and to detect adulteration. This study proposes a new spectrophotometric measurement at 278 nm, which can accomplish both objectives. Regarding VCO quality characteristics, PNS/ BAFPS 22:2007 states that VCO should be colorless and sediment-free. However, some VCO products may have light yellow color due to the method of production, and sedimentation naturally occurs below the freezing point of VCO, which is 25 °C. New methods are proposed to address the concerns of color and sediment. Because the Codex methods are optimized for vegetable oils with long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, some methods need to be adjusted for the analysis of VCO, which is composed mainly of saturated medium-chain fatty acids. These standards and methods can be adopted by regulatory agencies and guide the industry to ensure quality VCO.
Online Algorithms with Advice for the k-search Problem
Authors: Clemente Jhoirene , Adorna Henry , Fernandez Proceso
Published: October 2022

In the online search problem, a seller seeks to find the maximum price from a sequence of prices 𝒑1, 𝒑2 ,..., 𝒑𝒏 that is revealed in a piece-wise manner. The bound for all prices is well known in advance with 𝒎 � 𝒑𝒊 � 𝑴. In the online 𝒌-search problem, the seller seeks to find the 𝒌 maximum out of the 𝒏 prices. In this paper, we present a tight bound of loglog22(�(���)) on the advice complexity of optimal online algorithms for online 𝒌-search. We also provide online algorithms with advice that use less than the required number of bits and compute the performance guarantee. Although it is natural to expect improvement due to the additional power of advice, we are interested to identify the relationship of additional information with respect to the improvement. We show that with 1 bit of advice, we can already surpass the quality of the best possible deterministic algorithm for online 2-search. We also provide a set of online algorithms, ALG𝒊, that utilizes loglog22(�(�𝑖𝑖 )) advice bits with a competitive ratio of 𝑖𝑀+�⁻� ⁺ ¹ (𝑘 − 𝑖)⁽�⁻� ⁾𝑚) 𝑘 𝑀 . We show that increasing the amount of advice improves the solution quality of the algorithm. Moreover, we compare the power of advice and randomization. We show that for some identified minimum number of advice bits, the lower bound on the competitive ratio of online algorithms with advice is better than any deterministic and randomized algorithm for online 𝒌-search.
Macrophyte Diversity and Conservation Values of the Verde Island Passage, Philippines

Published: October 2022

The diversity and distribution of marine macrophytes – including seaweeds and seagrasses – in the Verde Island Passage (VIP), Philippines, was assessed covering nine sites across four provinces (Batangas, Marinduque, Occidental Mindoro, and Oriental Mindoro). Presence-absence data were compared to those of other sites within the VIP collected in earlier studies. Data from the VIP were then compared to sites with similar environmental and geographical features in other parts of the Philippines. A total of 116 macroalgal species and nine seagrass species were recorded from the VIP. This macroalgal richness represents approximately 12% of the reported macroalgae, and the number of seagrass species represents almost half of the known species in the country, suggesting that VIP supports a high diversity of marine macrophytes. Data analyses showed significant clustering of sites within the VIP. Some of the neighboring sites with similar environmental conditions also clustered together. The separation of clusters with sites outside the VIP may, in part, be explained by differences in local environmental conditions such as types of substratum, water depth, and current patterns (water motion). The diversity and uniqueness of marine macrophytes in the VIP highlight the importance of the ecosystem services and functions that these organisms provide. The role of various abiotic and biotic factors in driving variations in macroalgal diversity in the passage needs to be further verified with increased sampling efforts to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of the conservation value of the VIP.
Marine Benthic Algal Composition after 45 Years in an Urbanized Bay in Cebu, Philippines
Authors: Bataan Dan Anthony , Geraldino Paul John , Silapan­­ Judith , Liao Lawrence
Published: October 2022

Coastal ecosystems have been seriously impacted by anthropogenic activities, which are compounded by recent climatic and environmental changes. To provide some evidence of these changes, a study of marine benthic algal composition was conducted by comparing historical (1969–1970) and contemporary (2013–2014) collections in Silot Bay in Cebu, Philippines. A quantitative survey revealed a total of 30 species of benthic algae (11 red, nine brown, and 10 green) in the historical collections, whereas only 15 species (four each of red and brown plus seven species of green algae) were accounted in the latter years. This decline in the marine benthic algal composition may be attributed to sedimentation, which is indirectly caused by urbanization and human population increase. Altered environmental conditions inside the Bay may also explain the decline and qualitative changes of algal species composition therein. Continued monitoring of the benthic macroalgal composition and environmental parameters may help document anthropogenic impacts on marine ecosystems. Historical herbarium samples represent a valuable yet underappreciated resource for tracking environmental changes through time.
Tracking Iodine Decrease in Commercially Sold Caulerpa racemosa (Forsskål) J. Agardh (Chlorophyta, Ulvophyceae) during Storage
Authors: Berones Kathleen Amor , Yap-Dejeto Leni
Published: October 2022

Iodine is known as an essential mineral for thyroid hormone production in humans. It is water- soluble and diffuses into the atmosphere, where it is thought to break ozone molecules. Caulerpa racemosa (Phylum Chlorophyta, Class Ulvophyceae, Order Bropsidales) is a common dietary seaweed believed to be a good source of iodine in the Philippines. As of this writing, there is no record of iodine concentration measurements in harvested C. racemosa from Philippine waters. There is an expected decrease in iodine concentrations from harvested C. racemosa through time. But how fast it decreases and how much of it remains in the seaweed if stored for days is also unknown. This study measured iodine concentration in C. racemosa samples from an area in the Philippines and calculated the daily changes in iodine level concentrations of harvested C. racemosa that were stored. Titration analyses were done every 24 h, with factors such as the algal age, temperature, light, among others, kept constant. Storage conditions were adapted from how local vendors store leftover seaweed merchandise. Results revealed a decrease in iodine levels over time (y = –20.438x + 228.99; R² = 0.8937). The initial concentration (at dry weight) of iodine measured was 196 ppm and dropped to 94.8 ppm on the seventh day. Iodine levels of freshly picked and stored C. racemosa were also compared with the recommended daily iodine intake for humans.
Addressing the Housing Needs of Low-Income Internal Migrants in Chattogram City: The Role of City Governance
Authors: Rashed Alam Bhuiyan Mohammad
Published: October 2022

Based on fieldwork conducted in the second largest city of Bangladesh, Chattogram, this paper raises concerns regarding the current situation of the low-income migrant population. It also examines how the existing urbanization and city development policies are dealing with migrants and the complexities that they face. Finally, this paper suggests innovative ways to address those challenges. The photo-voice method was implemented with different group of migrants (N=10) in Chattogram City to elicit their concerns about their living conditions and understand how the wellbeing of the migrants is affected. The results show that the low-income migrants in Chattogram City are living in extremely poor housing and suffer from a scarcity of basic services (i.e., water and sanitation) as well as a fear of fire hazards and eviction. These factors have detrimental effects on the wellbeing of the migrants. No doubt, there are enormous public health threats emanating from this poor living environment for both the migrants as well as other city dwellers. This paper will provide policy directions for the Chattogram City Corporation, City Development Authority (CDA) and relevant departments regarding taking development measures regarding the low-income migrants in Chattogram City and suggests how the housing problems of the low-income migrant group might be mitigated.
The Business-Politics Nexus and Violations of the Water Bodies in Dhaka City
Authors:   Department of Political Science, University of Dhaka, Ahmed Farid Uddin
Published: October 2022

In the last four decades, Bangladesh has achieved a remarkable transformation and improvements in terms of its economic and social development. Bangladesh’s achievement in environmental governance and sustainable development, however, is far from satisfactory. Multi-dimensional tragedies have occurred in the public resources, particularly the water bodies in Dhaka City, Bangladesh. Water and forest resources are grabbed, depleted, and destroyed by certain political and economic interest groups. Few studies had focused on the governance of the water bodies in Dhaka City by adopting a political economic approach. Against this backdrop, adopting such an approach, this paper explores how the water bodies of Dhaka City have suffered violations. The paper argues that the ‘tragedy of the public resources’, particularly of the water bodies of Dhaka City, occurred primarily not due to the increasing population pressure but due to business and politics links associated with human transgression. Although the population boom has contributed to the rising pressure for public property and resources, the political business links, combined with a low institutional capacity, have primarily caused the disasters of the water bodies in Dhaka City. Successive governments have designed policies, laws, rules, and regulations for saving and protecting land, forest, and river resources. The government environmental agencies, however, have largely failed to manage and protect the public land and river resources effectively and efficiently. Consequently, the water bodies have been encroached on, misused, and grabbed, endangering the very existence of the rivers and so, ultimately, the process of sustainable development in Bangladesh.
Bonhomie of India-Bangladesh Relations in the Post-2008 Period
Authors: Bhardwaj Sanjay K.
Published: October 2022

The relations between India and Bangladesh are embedded in their shared history, geographical proximity, economic interdependency, and cultural affinity, as well as their positioning within the geopolitical conditions of the South Asian region. Since 1971, the year when Bangladesh became an independent nation, its bilateral relationships have frequently fluctuated. From the period of amity born from the partnership in Bangladesh’s War of Liberation, to the long spell of apathy during the post-Mujib era, and from the mutual suspicions following the restoration of democracy in Bangladesh in 1991, to the challenging forging of a development partnership through strategic cooperation by the present Bangladesh Awami League government, the bilateral relationship between India and Bangladesh has never been stable. The contemporary epoch has witnessed certain fundamental changes in the outlook and attitudes of both countries towards each other, however, that have collectively led towards a paradigm shift in their relationship. What are these new changes, and how permanent are they? How and where is this relationship heading? These are some of the questions that this article investigates. The focus of this enquiry is primarily upon the post-2008 politico-domestic construct of Bangladesh at the macro, meso and micro levels as well its implications for the India-Bangladesh bilateral relations.
Governing the Bangladesh–India borderland: No melting point for a state border and social boundary
Authors: Sufian Abu
Published: October 2022

Why has the Bangladesh–India borderland become a highly securitized and motion- unfriendly borderscape in South Asia? In an attempt to answer the question, this study delves into the changing nature of the geopolitical governmentality and states’ perspectives on border governance in the Bangladesh–India borderland. Based on secondary data, this paper explores how this borderland has become a ‘territorial trap’ for borderlanders living on the edges of both states, following the unscientific border demarcation process in 1947, in general, and, the construction of highly-fortified border fences by the Indian state, in particular, neglecting socio-cultural affinities, historical belongings, biopolitical motion and the basic tenets of human geography in South Asia. The interplay among the issues of (illegal) migration, demographic shifts, terrorism, and clashing interests over the electoral and resource geographies in the states bordering Bangladesh has radically changed the security doctrine of India, allowing the growth of huge border infrastructure and technologies, to govern the Bangladesh–India borderland strictly. The central argument of the study is that the growing technologies, infrastructure, and doctrines employed to govern the Bangladesh–India borderland have been challenging the norms and values of ‘border as a process,’ allowing no space for the nexus between state border and social (biopolitical) boundary in practice.
Securitization of Cross-border Population Movements
Authors:   Department of Political Science, University of Dhaka, Tasneem Siddiqui Tasneem
Published: October 2022

This paper examines three examples of the securitization of cross-border population movements within a few selected countries of South and South East Asia. These cases include: a) the forced movement of the Rohingya population form Myanmar to Bangladesh; b) the movement of the Bengali population from Bangladesh and West Bengal to the Assam State of India; and c) the labour migration between India and Bangladesh. It employs Barry Buzan’s ‘Non- Traditional Security’ and ‘Securitisation’ framework. It first identifies why these destination countries have securitized migration, then locates the process through which states, as well as political parties, student groups, and several other sections of the civil society of the destination countries, have securitized migration through different types of ‘speech acts.’ The paper demonstrates that securitization failed to resolve the challenges thrown up by the forced and voluntary population movements between these countries. Rather, it severely compromised the human security of those men, women and children who were forced to move or voluntarily engage in labour migration.

comprensión de textos argumentativos y la elaboración de resúmenes:
Authors: Velásquez Edna
Published: October 2022

Se explora la comprensión y la elaboración del resumen de un texto argumentativo por parte de un grupo de 188 estudiantes de español como lengua de herencia en una universidad estadounidense. Se comparan estos resultados con los de un grupo control de 11 hablantes nativos de español matriculados en una universidad en Bogotá, Colombia. Luego de contestar una prueba de reconocimiento léxico, los participantes leyeron el texto argumentativo, completaron una prueba de comprensión de lectura y al final elaboraron un resumen del texto. Los análisis de correlación entre los diferentes instrumentos indican que, para los estudiantes de nivel intermedio, el reconocimiento léxico fue un factor determinante en la calidad de sus resúmenes, pero no ocurrió lo mismo para los avanzados ni para el grupo control de hablantes nativos del español. El bajo desempeño en la calidad del resumen fue generalizado e independiente del contexto monolingüe o bilingüe de lectura, es decir, no se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los resúmenes de los diferentes grupos. Nuestros resultados resaltan la importancia de incorporar la instrucción sobre el uso de estrategias lectoras en los cursos de lengua universitarios. Se sugiere además que, el uso de esquemas estructurales de los textos y de rúbricas como la utilizada en este estudio pueden resultar útiles para el reconocimiento de la estructura que subyace al texto, y para distinguir entre la información esencial de la que es irrelevante, estrategias esenciales tanto para la comprensión lectora como para la elaboración de resúmenes y de ensayos académicos.
Integration of Peer Support Services in the Spanish as a Heritage Language Curriculum
Authors: Reznicek-Parrado Lina , Gonzales Adrienne
Published: October 2022

The following is a description of a pedagogical initiative that has resulted from the collaboration between a Spanish for Heritage/Bilingual Program and a Language Center at a medium-sized private institution in the United States. The initiative is grounded in the need to provide coordinated, early college experiences that positively benefit underrepresented student communities, such as Spanish heritage speakers, particularly through educationally purposeful or “high-impact” practices based on linguistic inclusivity (Ladson-Billings, 1995; Kuh, 2008). We rely on curricular design that centers the unique profile of heritage students, creating equitable learning spaces where translanguaging practices are intrinsic to the pedagogical design. With these goals in mind, the collaborative program described here integrates a peer-to-peer writing consultation experience as part of a Spanish for heritage learners course requirement. In these sessions, students autonomously engage with language tutors and their peers outside of the classroom for guidance and discussion on the course’s writing projects, as well as other topics of student academic interest. This collaboration is motivated by critical pedagogical design grounded in theoretical notions that see bilingualism as a dynamic, and not linear system (Palmer & Martínez, 2013; García & Wei, 2014), and that highlight the translingual literacy practices of heritage students in an out-of-classroom academic spaces (Reznicek-Parrado, 2020). In this paper, we discuss course integration and the logistical details of a peer-to-peer consultation program design, illustrating a model for institutional structures and pedagogies that work in tandem with the intention of promoting heritage student success.

Kommt jetzt die Plattformgesellschaft? Organisation in der digitalen Transformation und Impulse für eine Soziologie der Digitalisierung
Authors: Kirchner Stefan
Published: October 2022

Digitale Plattformen, wie Uber oder Airbnb, läuten das Ende der Organisationsgesellschaft ein, die von bürokratischen Großorganisationen geprägt war. Das behaupten zumindest aktuelle Thesen zur Plattformökonomie. Tatsächlich finden sich in der Debatte um Digitalisierung jedoch erstaunlich wenige konzeptionelle Anhaltspunkte, wie genau sich ein substanzieller Wandel ergibt. Diagnosen, wie „Plattformkapitalismus“, „Plattformgesellschaft“ oder „Plattformisierung“ fehlt bisher eine umfassende Fundierung. Der Beitrag führt vor diesem Hintergrund Mechanismen der Digitalisierung ein, die veränderte Organisationsstrukturen ermöglichen. Als soziale Form folgen digitale Plattformen einer Architektur aus Kern, Rand und Schnittstellen, die mit Hilfe digitaler Technik spezifische soziale Ordnungen ermöglicht und aufrechterhält. Auf dieser Grundlage werden digitale Plattformen genauer als Plattformorganisationen bestimmt. Digitale Plattformen etablieren dabei eine spezifische Form der Herrschaft, die mit sozialen Ungleichheiten und Effekten für die gesellschaftliche Integration einhergeht. Insofern verschieben sich die Eckpfeiler der klassischen Organisationsgesellschaft hin zu Plattformorganisationen, die als Strukturprinzip zunehmend Arbeit, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft prägen. Die Analyse digitaler Plattformen unterstreicht dabei die Bedeutung sozialer Formen und sozialer Ordnungen als zentrale Ankerpunkte für eine Soziologie der Digitalisierung.
Vom emanzipatorischen Potential der Rechtsdogmatik. Ein anderer Blick auf „Rasse“ und Recht
Authors: Sow Amadou Korbinian
Published: October 2022

This paper explores how law and jurisprudence are currently being challenged by anti-racist critiques. Specifically, it examines how the term „whiteness“ is being used to criticize law as inherently unjust and racist. Whilst the paper also addresses negative effects of the law, it mounts a defense of law and jurisprudence. It argues that true emancipation from racialized discrimination lies not beyond law and the Western legal tradition but rather through it. The promise of a universal and equal law for all should be reaffirmed, not abolished. That entails not losing sight of the ultimate goal of anti-racist thought and practice - the abolition of race in all its shapes from our world. Keywords: critical legal theory - law and race - legal dogmatics
Mehr haben als man tragen kann? Eigentumsordnung als Problem einer phänomenologischen Bestimmung des Besitzes
Authors: Gündüz Eray
Published: October 2022

Legal phenomenology is becoming increasingly popular. How must a phenomenological analysis of possession be structured? To explore the nature of possession it has to be considered independently of ownership. In a property system, the understanding of possession often goes far beyond its pure meaning. The so-called realistic view on property and possession (Besitzrealismus) seems to be also relevant for a phenomenological approach. Keywords: Besitzrealismus - legal phenomenology - possession - property rights

Die Untersuchung gelangt zu dem Ergebnis, dass diese Weiterentwicklung mit den Vorgaben der KWK-Richtlinie (2004/8/EG) ebenso vereinbar ist wie mit der Waren-verkehrsfreiheit nach Art. 28 EG und dem Beihilferecht nach Art. 87 und 88 EG. Größere Schwierigkeiten bereitet die grundrechtliche Beurteilung, in deren Mittelpunkt die Vereinbarkeit mit dem Grundrecht der Berufsausübungsfreiheit der Stromnetzbetreiber steht.
Neue Bedrohungen für die Persönlichkeitsrechte von Sportlern
Authors: Nolte Martin , Bepler Klaus , Seitz Walter , Berninger Anja
Published: October 2022

Sport boomt. Die Zunahme seiner ökonomischen, sozialen und politischen Dimension korreliert mit einer wachsenden Medialisierung des Sportgeschehens. Immer öfter stehen Sportler, Trainer, Manager und Funktionäre als sogenannte Personen der Zeitgeschichte im Fokus von Fernsehen, Radio sowie Print- und elektronischen Medien. Signifikante und zum Teil subtile Beeinträchtigungen diverser Persönlichkeitsrechte - angefangen vom Recht der persönlichen Ehre über das Recht am eigenen Wort/Bild bis hin zum Recht auf informationelle Selbstbestimmung - sind die nahezu zwangsläufige Folge. Bisweilen dürften Eingriffe in das Persönlichkeitsrecht von den Betroffenen aus verschiedenen Gründen gewollt sein. Meistens ist dies jedoch nicht der Fall.

Dieser Band vereint die auf der Frühjahrstagung 2010 der Deutschen Vereinigung für Sportrecht e.V. (Konstanzer Arbeitskreis) in Weimar gehaltenen Referate.

Die Themen:

- Gefahren für die Persönlichkeitsrechte von Sportlern durch arbeitsvertragliche Regelungen

- Gefahren durch die Berichterstattung in den Medien

- Der Nationale Anti-Doping-Code des Jahres 2009

- Anti-Doping-Meldepflichten im Lichte des Datenschutzes

Die wegweisenden Abhandlungen bieten Wissenschaft und Praxis eine fundierte Grundlage für die Fortentwicklung dieses wichtigen Bereichs des Sportrechts.
Netzzugangsregulierung auf dem Stromsektor in Deutschland und Frankreich - ein Vergleich
Authors: Schneider Carmen
Published: October 2022

Regulierung im Energiebinnenmarkt

Die seit dem Ende der 1990er Jahre von der Europäischen Gemeinschaft maßgeblich betriebene Öffnung des Strommarktes für den Wettbewerb hat die Schaffung eines voll funktionierenden Elektrizitätsbinnenmarktes zum Ziel. Jüngst wurden zu diesem Zweck die klassischen Regulierungsinstrumente durch das Dritte Energiebinnenmarktpaket verschärft und erweitert.

Liberalisierung des Strommarktes

Die Liberalisierung des Strommarktes gestaltet sich nach wie vor schwierig, insbesondere wegen der beachtlichen Systemunterschiede, die die Organisations- und Rechtsstrukturen in der Energiewirtschaft der Mitgliedstaaten seit jeher aufweisen. Es verwundert daher nicht, dass die Liberalisierung der Strommärkte von beachtlichen Widerständen und einer protektionistischen Haltung auf Ebene der Mitgliedstaaten begleitet wurde und wird.

"Service public" contra "Daseinsvorsorge"

Solche Tendenzen zeigen sich etwa in Frankreich, wo das Leitbild der Energieversorgung als service public tief verwurzelt ist. Im Gegensatz dazu hat sich in Deutschland das Verständnis von der "Daseinsvorsorge" als allein vom Staat zu gewährende Aufgabe gewandelt; Daseinsvorsorge kann bis zu einem gewissen Grad auch von privaten, im Wettbewerb stehenden Unternehmen erbracht werden.

Strukturunterschiede im Vergleich

Die Verfasserin vergleicht die Strukturunterschiede der Netzzugangsregulierung im Stromsektor in Deutschland und Frankreich und liefert neue Einblicke und Erkenntnisse. Zum einen betrifft dies die tatsächliche Umsetzung und praktische Wirksamkeit der Vorgaben aus Brüssel. Zum anderen sind die unterschiedlichen Lösungsansätze und Strategien hinsichtlich existierender Problembereiche in der deutschen wie der französischen Rechtsordnung von Interesse.

Das Problem:

Für den Unternehmer, aber auch für seine Berater werden Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen immer mehr zu einer unbekannten Materie und ihre Abfassung und Verwendung zu einem unkalkulierbaren Risiko.

Die Lösung:

Hier schafft der Leitfaden Abhilfe. Er ist besonders anwenderfreundlich ausgerichtet. Der Ratgeber dient als erster Einstieg bei der Gestaltung von Allgemeinen Geschäftsbedingungen und hilft, grobe Fehler bei der Abfassung zu vermeiden.

Mit Formulierungshilfen:

Der Leser kann sich gezielt über die Zulässigkeit einzelner Klauseln und über allgemeine Probleme bei der Abfassung und Verwendung von Allgemeinen Geschäftsbedingungen informieren.

Der Band zeigt, welche branchenübergreifenden Gestaltungsgrenzen es für einzelne AGB-Bestimmungen gibt, und bietet hierzu jeweils Formulierungshilfen: Angefangen von Annahmefristen und Abwehrklauseln über Eigentumsvorbehalte und Haftungsausschlüsse bis hin zu Schriftformklauseln und Zahlungsmodalitäten geht der Leitfaden auf alle wesentlichen AGB-Regelungen ein, die für die Praxis von Bedeutung sind.

Inklusive Muster AGBs:

Neben den allgemeinen Gestaltungshinweisen finden sich für eine Vielzahl von Vertragstypen ausformulierte Muster-AGBs. Dabei verweist das Praxiswerk auf die jeweiligen rechtlichen Besonderheiten von Arbeitsverträgen, Bau- oder Mietverträgen, Reparatur- oder Wartungsverträgen u.v.m.

Topaktueller Rechtsstand:

Die 3. Auflage berücksichtigt die Fortentwicklung der Rechtsprechung und der Literatur, wie etwa

- die Entwicklungen im Mängelhaftungsrecht bei Kauf- und Werkverträgen,

- die nahezu unüberschaubare Rechtsprechung zu Schönheitsreparaturen im Mietrecht sowie

- die Neuerungen beim Verbraucherwiderrufsrecht durch die EU-Verbraucherschutz-RL.

Mit Problem-ABC:

Eine Auflistung der wichtigsten Probleme führt schnell zur gesuchten Information rundet den Ratgeber ab.

Grundlagen – von Bedarf bis Finanzierung

Der Schwerpunkt des Praxisleitfadens liegt auf folgenden Themenbereichen:

• Bedarfsplanung,

• Raumplanung,

• Finanzierung,

• Trägeraufgaben sowie

• notwendige Rahmenbedingungen für pädagogisch erfolgreiches Arbeiten.

Gesetz und Rechtsprechung

Fragen der Personalbemessung, der Ausbildung und Leistungsfreistellung werden ebenfalls ausführlich erläutert. Die gesetzlichen Grundlagen sind in einem besonderen Abschnitt zusammengefasst.

Die aktuelle Rechtsprechung, z.B. zu den Anstellungsmöglichkeiten von Tagesmüttern in Großtagespflegestellen, und das Bundesförderprogramm "Kinderbetreuungsfinanzierung" 2017–2020 zum weiteren Ausbau der Betreuung sind eingearbeitet.

Der Anhang enthält u.a. ein Muster für die Einrichtung eines Qualitätsmanagements in städtischen Kindergärten.

Erfahrung im Bildungsmanagement

Der umfangreiche Erfahrungsschatz und die Fachkompetenz der Autoren – gerade im Bereich des Bildungsmanagements frühkindlicher Bildung – fließen in den Leitfaden ein. Besonders wertvoll sind die Handlungsempfehlungen und Tipps für Träger und Kommunalverwaltungen.

Der Ratgeber ist damit die optimale Arbeitshilfe für Entscheidungsträger in den Kommunen, Beschäftigte in Fachverwaltungen, Ausbildungs- und Studienstätten sowie für die Träger von Kindertagesstätten. Für interessierte Eltern ist das Buch ebenfalls eine nützliche Informationsquelle.

Gesetz über kommunale Zusammenarbeit Baden-Württemberg Kurzkommentar
Authors: Aker Bernd , Zinell Herbert O.
Published: October 2022

Die Probleme: Digitalisierung, Fachkräftemangel, komplexe Abläufe

Die Bedeutung der interkommunalen Zusammenarbeit nimmt angesichts der veränderten Rahmenbedingungen für die Kommunalpolitik zu. Gemeinden und Landkreise stehen vor neuen Herausforderungen, auf die sie reagieren müssen, z.B.:

• Digitalisierung,

• Fachkräftemangel sowie

• die zunehmende Komplexität der Verwaltungsvorgänge.

Die Lösung: Kommunale Kooperation

Das modernisierte Gesetz über kommunale Zusammenarbeit (GKZ) sieht hierfür verschiedene Formen der Kooperation mehrerer Kommunen vor.

In der grundlegenden Neukommentierung des GKZ sind die in der kommunalen Praxis relevanten Rechtsfragen ausführlich erläutert: von der Entstehung über die Verfassung, Verwaltung und Wirtschaftsführung bis zu den speziellen Regelungen für Zweckverbände, Kommunalanstalten und die öffentlich-rechtliche Vereinbarung.

Der Kommentar eignet sich hervorragend als zuverlässiges Nachschlagewerk für Führungskräfte und Fachbeamte in Kommunalverwaltungen und Zweckverbänden sowie für Rechtsanwälte, Gerichte und Behörden.

Das kompetente Autorenteam

Dr. Herbert O. Zinell kennt die Bedeutung und die Herausforderungen der kommunalen Zusammenarbeit im Detail. Er war viele Jahre Oberbürgermeister der Großen Kreisstadt Schramberg und Amtschef im Innenministerium Baden-Württemberg.

Auch Bernd Aker verfügt über einschlägige Erfahrungen mit der Thematik. Er war Erster Landesbeamter beim Landratsamt Ludwigsburg, Leiter der Kommunalaufsicht beim Regierungspräsidium Stuttgart und stellvertretender Hauptgeschäftsführer des baden-württembergischen Städtetages.
