Authors: Wang Chunjuan , Liu Dahai , Wang Jinpeng , Zhao Yimeng , Shan Haiyan
Published: July 2022

This study seeks to provide a basic approach to fulfill the spatial visualization of geopolitical environmental factors required for the navigation of vessels in the Arctic. Multi-dimensional geopolitical environmental factors of the Arctic Passage are analyzed and classified into geopolitics, geoeconomics, geo-military, geoculture, and laws and regulations related to geography. Their characteristics are extracted to form an attribute information table matching spatial layers. Based on the information category and basic characteristics, the spatial match method is applied and connected with the spatial layers to examine the spatial point, polyline, and polygon. According to the qualitative description, the study extracted the quantitative indicators for the following spatial–temporal pattern analysis. The standard deviational ellipse is used to analyze the spatial–temporal patterns and trends of the geopolitical environmental indicators of the Arctic Passage in the Arctic and Northeast Asia. The expansion and contraction of geoinformation coexist in the countries surrounding the Arctic Passage. The spatial–temporal changes indicate that the Arctic channel has a great economic impact on the Nordic countries and Northeast Asia, especially the coastal areas of China and Japan. The characteristic extraction and spatial match of the geopolitical environment provide integrated Arctic geoinformation inquiry and services for the diplomatic, administrative, and legal preparations required for Arctic navigation. Therefore, the geospatial analysis conducted provides scientific support and a basis for the geographical distribution and developing trends of visualization and spatial–temporal pattern in Arctic navigation. The results of this research will help decision-makers to make a comprehensive judgment on governance related to the sustainable development of the Arctic Passage.
Reciprocal recombination genomic signatures in the symbiotic arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi Rhizophagus irregularis

Published: July 2022

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are part of the most widespread fungal-plant symbiosis. They colonize at least 80% of plant species, promote plant growth and plant diversity. These fungi are multinucleated and contain either one or two haploid nuclear genotypes (monokaryon and dikaryon) identified by the alleles at a putative mating-type locus. This taxon has been considered as an ancient asexual scandal because of the lack of observable sexual structures. Despite identification of a putative mating-type locus and functional activation of genes related to mating when two isolates co-exist, it remains unknown if the AMF life cycle involves a sexual or parasexual stage. We used publicly available genome sequences to test if Rhizophagus irregularis dikaryon genomes display signatures of sexual reproduction in the form of reciprocal recombination patterns, or if they display exclusively signatures of parasexual reproduction involving gene conversion. We used short-read and long-read sequence data to identify nucleus-specific alleles within dikaryons and then compared them to orthologous gene sequences from related monokaryon isolates displaying the same putative MAT-types as the dikaryon. We observed that the two nucleus-specific alleles of the dikaryon A5 are more related to the homolog sequences of monokaryon isolates displaying the same putative MAT-type than between each other. We also observed that these nucleus-specific alleles displayed reciprocal recombination signatures. These results confirm that dikaryon and monokaryon isolates displaying the same putative MAT-type are related in their life-cycle. These results suggest that a genetic exchange mechanism, involving reciprocal recombination in dikaryon genomes, allows AMF to generate genetic diversity.

The beginning of the U.S. COVID-19 pandemic interrupted integral services and supports for those in recovery from substance use disorders. The current study used qualitative and quantitative data to identify 1) pandemic-related barriers/stressors, 2) coping strategies employed, and 3) how the stressors and strategies predicted subsequent substance use frequency. Participants were 48 adults (40.5% female; 90.2% White) between 26 and 60 years old (M = 42.66, SD = 8.44) who were part of a larger, multi-year longitudinal study of individuals in recovery from substance use disorders. Individuals completed two interviews, one during the six weeks of initial stay-at-home orders in the state in which data were collected and the second within six to twelve months of their initial interview. Common barriers to recovery included cancelled support meetings, changes in job format (i.e., being fired or furloughed), and lack of social support. Common coping strategies included self-care, leisure activities/hobbies, taking caution against exposure, and strengthening personal relationships. The relationship between cravings at baseline and substance use at follow up was stronger for those who experienced worsening of their mental health (B = 21.80, p < .01) than for those who did not (B = 5.45, p = 0.09), and for those who were taking caution against exposure (B = 24.57, p < .01) than for those who were not (B = 1.87, p = 0.53). Those who engaged in self-care (B = 0.00, p>.99) had lower rates of substance use at follow-up than those who did not employ self-care as a coping mechanism (B = 16.10, p < .01). These findings inform research priorities regarding prospective effects of the pandemic on treatment endeavors, particularly emphasizing treating mental health and encouraging self-care strategies.

Background

Though the initiation of Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) has led to decreased HIV/AIDS related mortality, the regimen has been reported to be associated with lipid toxicities. Baseline data on such disturbances are required to induce countrywide interventional HIV/AIDS programs. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency and risks of dyslipidemia in HIV patients on HAART medication in Eritrea.

Methods

A cross sectional study was conducted on HIV/AIDS patients in two national referral hospitals in Asmara, Eritrea. A structured questionnaire was used to collect demographic data and blood sample was taken for analyses of lipid profile tests. Data was analyzed using chi-square test, Post Hoc and logistic regression in SPSS software.

Results

The study included 382 participants of whom 256(67%) were females. Their median age, CD4+ T cell count (cell/microliter) and duration of HAART (years) was 45(IQR: 38–51), 434(IQR: 294–583) & 5(IQR: 3–5) respectively. The prevalence of dyslipidemia was 331(86.6%). Increased Low Density Lipoprotein-C (LDL-C) 213(55.8%) was the predominant abnormality. Abacavir was significantly related with highest means of triglycerides (TG) (228.17 ± 193.81) and lowest means of High Density Lipoprotein (HDL-C) (46.94 ± 12.02). Females had substantially higher proportions of TG (aOR = 2.89, 95% CI: 1.65–5.05) and TC/HDL ratio (aOR = 2.33, 95% CI: 1.40–3.87) and low HDL-C (aOR = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.34–3.48). Increased age was related with increased pro-atherogenic lipid parameters. High LDL-C was more infrequent in non-smokers (aOR = 0.028, 95% CI: 0.12–0.69).

Conclusion

The study showed a high prevalence of dyslipidemia in HIV-patients receiving HAART in Eritrea. Sex, age and smoking practice were among key factors associated with dyslipidemia. The necessity to assess lipid profiles and other cardiovascular risk factors before initiation of HAART treatment and continuous monitoring during therapy is mandatory.
Ageing (un)equally and (un)healthily: On the health status of Portuguese people aged 50+
Authors: Correia Isabel M. , Ferreira Priscila , Pinto Lígia M. , Valente Marieta , Veiga Paula
Published: July 2022

Research on the health status and on socio-economic inequality in the health status of Portuguese adults with 50 years of age or more is scarce, but urgent, so that policy-makers can better understand the type of burdens that this ageing process will place on social welfare policies. We use data from the Survey of Health Ageing and Retirement in Europe Wave 6 to investigate the role of gender, income and education in self-reported health status and in morbidity amongst adults aged 50+ in Portugal by means of a multivariate analysis. Results from this exploratory study reveal a negative self-perception of health status amongst older individuals; high prevalence of chronic diseases since an earlier age; high levels of depression problems reported by women; and high disability amongst the oldest old. The results also show a prevalence of chronic diseases, mental health problems, and high disability, which will challenge the Portuguese social welfare system in terms of long-term care and pensions, and will additionally require an adequate (re)organization of the healthcare supply to older adults. Furthermore, the evidence calls for a gendered perspective of health and social policy in Portugal, particularly concerning mental health.
The use of the optative in Iliad 2,1-493
Authors: De Decker Filip
Published: July 2022

In this article I address the use of the optative (appearing alone or in in contrast with the subjunctive or indicative) in Iliad 2,1-493 (the part before the Catalogue of Ships starts). This part of the book describes Agamemnon's (failed) attempts to rouse the army and Odysseus' intervention to restore the damage caused by Agamemnon's blunder(s). In these lines there are about 110 subjunctive and optative forms, and they provide a small but reliable corpus of instances in different constructions and are therefore sufficient to serve as basis for an investigation and can be used to check if results acquired in other investigations can be confirmed or refuted. As the optative is the mood with the widest array of uses (from the unreal to the almost-certain-future), I focus on the passages in which the optative is used, either alone or in contrast with the subjunctive or indicative. I start by briefly discussing earlier scholarship on the issue, then I outline how I catalogue the forms, paying particular attention to the (metrical and palaeographical) overlap between subjunctive and future forms and finally I proceed to the actual analysis, addressing also textual and philological issues. My research hypothesis is that the subjunctive is used to describe events that the speakers and/or narrators considered to be more likely to happen, while the optative refers to what is (remotely) possible or wished for, but thought to be less probable. I also argue that while the optative is often used in iterative contexts and after past tense verbs, this does not mean that the optativus iterativus and optativus obliquus were distinct categories as the former obtained its iterative meaning from the context and the latter was more often than not only due to the lower degree of probability (in other words there is no strict consecutio modorum nor attractio modorum).
Rossz mutató vagy csak bűnbak? A GDP mint jólléti mutatószám = GDP as a well-being indicator – Bad indicator or just a scapegoat?
Authors: Csutora Mária
Published: July 2022

A hozzászólás bemutatja, hogy a GDP torzított tükre a jóllét sokdimenziós képének, amelyben megjelenik sok rossz „áru”, amiért pénz adunk, és hiányzik belőle sok jó „áru”, amiért nem fizetünk. A GDP ugyanakkor csak egy eszköz, amely bár torzított és félrevezető, nem tehető felelőssé az emberi döntéshozatal minden hibájáért. Rendelkezünk ma már az összes olyan jólléti indikátorral, amelyek alapján születhetnének a természeti környezet, a jövő generációk, és a jelen generáció nagyobb részének érdekeit figyelembe vevő döntések. A monetáris számítások misztifikálásának fő problémája az individualizmus értékrendjének igazolása, amely miatt nehéz elfogadtatni az egyéni áldozatokat kívánó lépéseket a természeti és társadalmi katasztrófák elkerülésére.
Az ökológiai közgazdaságtan első és második harminc évének néhány közös témája
Authors: Daly Herman
Published: July 2022

Röviden felsorolok néhány olyan témát, melyek nem újak, ám véleményem szerint fontos, befejezetlen vonatkozásokat vetnek föl, melyek további kimunkálását – ha nem is végleges lezárását – reményeim szerint mások majd elvégzik. Olyan egymással összefüggő témák jegyzéke ez, melyek a hagyományos neoklasszikus közgazdaságtantól való azon eltéréseket hangsúlyozzák, ahol nézetem szerint az ökológiai közgazdaságtannak sokkal erőteljesebben kellene kihívást intéznie a neoklasszikusok felé, és a neoklasszikus elemzési eszközöket legalább részben fel kellene használniuk az érvelés során. Tisztában vagyok a másik oldal fogalmainak használatából eredő veszéllyel, ám az ellenkező előjelű veszélyt is el kellene kerülni: csak azért elutasítani hasznos elgondolásokat, mert azokat az ellenoldal használja.

Jelen vélemény Herman Daly társadalmi metabolizmusról papírra vetett megjegyzéseit elemzi egy hazai kutató szemszögéből. Tanulmányomban a társadalmi metabolizmus által kitűnően vizsgálható két, időszerűnek tartott kérdést emelem ki, egyrészt a környezeti problémák átterhelését, másrészt pedig a gazdasági növekedés és az ökológiai rendszer viszonyát.
Helyettesíthető-e a természeti és az ember alkotta tőke, avagy a technológia mindent megold? = Are natural and man-made capital complements or substitutes, or does technology solve everything?
Authors: Bajmócy Zoltán
Published: July 2022

Ez a tanulmány egy rövid kommentár Herman Daly e lapszámban megjelenő írásának második állításához, miszerint a természeti és az ember alkotta tőke alapvetően kiegészítő és nem helyettesítő viszonyban állnak. A kommentár bemutatja, hogy miért vezet ez a kérdés a technooptimista–technopesszimista vitához, és miért fontos e diskurzuson túllépni. Amellett érvel, hogy valójában a technológiai változással kapcsolatos előfeltevéseinktől függ az, hogy a helyettesíthetőség kérdésére milyen választ adunk.
Az alacsony átáramlás közgazdaságtani támogatása = Economic support for a reduction in throughput
Authors: Harangozó Gábor
Published: July 2022

Daly meglátása szerint a gazdaság átáramlásának (anyag- és energiafelhasználásának) csökkentéséhez a jelenlegi közgazdasági szabályozó eszközök újratöltése szükséges, elsősorban a járadékokra fókuszálva, mert jelenleg ez jelenti a szűk keresztmetszetet az átáramlás csökkenthetőségében. Jelen tanulmány néhány gazdasági szabályozóeszközt tekint át, amellett érvelve, hogy ezek valóban alkalmasak lehetnek az átáramlás csökkentésére. Nem az eszköz hiányzik tehát jelenleg, hanem inkább a szabályozói/politikai akarat. A hozzászólás kitekint a főáramú gazdasági megközelítésen túli paradigmákra is.
Diagnóstico zootécnico relacionado a qualidade do leite e ao perfil produtivo do município de Rio Pomba, MG

Published: July 2022

O Brasil ocupa a terceira posição em produção de leite no ranking global. A produção é baixa quando analisada individualmente, por isso a importância de conhecer os índices zootécnicos associados à produção e a qualidade do leite. O trabalho foi realizado em 29 propriedades rurais do município de Rio Pomba, no estado de Minas Gerais, sendo levantado os dados de índices zootécnicos de cada propriedade. Observou-se que a quantidade total de animais no rebanho, o número de vacas em lactação e a média das áreas das propriedades aumentam à medida que se eleva a produtividade. Em produtividade de litros de leite/área/ano, os produtores envolvidos estão com produção acima da média encontrada no estado. No que diz respeito a realização das boas práticas para obtenção do leite, observou-se que à medida que aumenta a produção leiteira, se eleva a frequência de realização das boas práticas. Quanto à qualidade do leite, para Contagem de Células Somáticas (CCS), somente os produtores com menor produção apresentaram média dentro do recomendado; para Contagem Bacteriana Total (CBT), constatou-se que o leite dos produtores de maior produção apresentou média dentro do recomendado. Conclui-se com a pesquisa que a CBT parece ter relação com a eficiência na produção, onde os produtores com maior produção atendem às normas, e também a CCS parece ter relação com a eficiência zootécnica. Em geral, maior parte das propriedades não atendem aos parâmetros legais de qualidade do leite. Os índices zootécnicos se apresentam melhores nas propriedades à medida que se eleva a produção leiteira.

Malvinas. La construcción histórica de una causa nacional en el ámbito escolar (1945-1973)
Authors: Santos La Rosa Mariano
Published: July 2022

El análisis de la construcción en el ámbito escolar de una causa nacional como Malvinas contribuye a reflexionar sobre el rol de la Historia escolar en la configuración de imaginarios nacionalistas. Durante toda la primera mitad del siglo XX la cuestión Malvinas se encuentra ausente en los textos escolares para el nivel primario. Esto comienza a cambiar con la edición de los manuales “peronistas”. Si bien luego del golpe de Estado de 1955 fueron suprimidos estos materiales escolares, la presencia de  Malvinas no solo se mantuvo sino que se afianzó, por lo que las editoriales comenzaron a destinarle un espacio cada vez más importante en sus propuestas para el nivel primario y secundario durante las décadas de 1960 y 1970. Esta tendencia recibiría su impulso definitivo cuando en 1973 el gobierno nacional a través de la sanción de la ley 20.561 fijó el 10 de junio como “Día de la Afirmación de los Derechos Argentinos sobre las Malvinas e Islas del Sector Antártico”.
Los manuales de Historia como creadores de identidad nacional hasta mediados del siglo XX. El caso de la primera invasión inglesa
Authors: Fabian Jorge Luis
Published: July 2022

Las investigaciones que utilizan a los manuales escolares como objeto de estudio, obtuvieron una mayor relevancia a finales del siglo XX proponiendo una mirada renovada para el estudio de la Historia de la educación. En este mismo sentido, el proceso de conformación de la ciudadanía a partir de la construcción de la idea de patria ha sido planteado en los textos escolares de Historia principalmente mediante las denominadas “efemérides escolares”. Sin embargo, también existen otros acontecimientos históricos que han sido utilizados con la misma finalidad como es el caso de las invasiones inglesas. Por este motivo, creemos oportuno relevar algunos manuales escolares de historia publicados entre 1896 y 1944 para observar cómo fue utilizada la primera invasión inglesa para generar un sentido de patria en los criollos que derivó en el surgimiento del “Primer gobierno patrio” proclamado el 25 de mayo en 1810.
Tres años del seminario-taller especializado de investigación en enseñanza de la historia en el Colegio de Historia de la UNAM
Authors: Ordóñez Michelle
Published: July 2022

En mayo de 2018 descubrí que había sido eliminada de la lista de profesores y profesoras que impartían la materia obligatoria Enseñanza de la historia en la licenciatura en historia del Colegio de Historia de la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la UNAM. El coordinador, señaló que era necesaria una rotación de personal para que nos actualizáramos e innováramos nuestras prácticas. Me ofreció impartir un seminario-taller especializado que recibía, principalmente, a estudiantes de quinto semestre, sin embargo, al ser de carácter optativo, corría el riesgo de que el grupo no se abriera por falta de interés por el tema propuesto. Con base en mi experiencia como docente y miembro de los comités de admisión en el campo de conocimiento historia de la Maestría en Docencia para la Educación Media Superior, decidí que era una oportunidad para dar herramientas que permitieran problematizar la enseñanza de la historia y plantear investigaciones relevantes y pertinentes. Así surgió el seminario-taller especializado en investigación en enseñanza de la historia, del que se ofrece una sistematización que gira en torno a estudiantes, contenidos y producción del curso, para poder reflexionar acerca de la necesidad de incluir la investigación como formación indispensable para la enseñanza de la historia.
Procesos de descentralización y recentralización gubernamental bajo el contexto global reciente. Las especificidades del caso Latinoamericano
Authors: Bazza Alcidez , Fernández Victor Ramiro , Seiler Cristhian
Published: July 2022

En este primer número de la Revista Desarrollo, Estado y Espacio se presenta una edición especial que analiza los procesos de descentralización y recentralización gubernamental en el marco de la coyuntura internacional reciente. El liderazgo de los Estados Unidos, como principal promotor de las estrategias de descentralización durante las últimas décadas del siglo pasado, es desafiado por diferentes acontecimientos que se dieron a inicios del nuevo milenio. Entre ellos, por la extraordinaria emergencia de China, país que “promueve la globalización” al participar de manera proactiva en la red de instituciones internacionales y multilaterales, aunque con una estructura institucional que recentraliza funciones claves en el gobierno nacional. Asimismo, en sintonía con este nuevo contexto, cobra relevancia el análisis del caso Latinoamericano donde la literatura especializada advierte una “ola recentralizadora”. Desde distintas perspectivas y metodologías, los trabajos brindan aportes para indagar la dinámica contemporánea de las relaciones intergubernamentales.
¿Por qué surge la recentralización de China en la era de la globalización?
Authors: Yang Jun , Sheng Shuyang
Published: July 2022

Aunque está involucrada en la era de la globalización, China se ha vuelto más centralizada. Después de la descentralización de 1978 a 1993, la tendencia de centralización[2] se ha fortalecido una vez más desde 1994, lo que algunos académicos denominaron recentralización. Muchos académicos solo se enfocan en el período desde el XVIII Congreso Nacional del PCCh en 2012, pero no logran descubrir la causa raíz de la recentralización. Ignoran el hecho de que la reforma del sistema de distribución de impuestos de 1994 es una señal importante de la recentralización de China, la respuesta puede estar en eso. En este artículo, analizamos el sistema de coparticipación de impuestos de 1994 desde la perspectiva de la teoría de la dominación de Weber y descubrimos que la ansiedad del nuevo gobierno central chino a principios de la década de 1990 fue la motivación tanto para la reforma fiscal como para la recentralización. En ese momento, el nuevo gobierno central no podía confiar en ninguno de los tipos de autoridad legítima de Weber para mantener operaciones eficientes porque la autoridad carismática[3] de los líderes centrales se había debilitado desde la era de Deng Xiaoping y el nuevo tipo de autoridad no se había establecido. En estas circunstancias, el gobierno central estaba ansioso por remodelar la autoridad para estabilizar el orden centralizado, que también fue la motivación básica para la Reforma del Sistema de Participación de Impuestos.
Recorriendo los procesos de reforma procesales penales. Perspectivas analíticas sobre la reconfiguración de la justicia penal en América Latina
Authors: Taboga Julieta
Published: July 2022

Este artículo se propone reconstruir los diversos análisis que, desde las ciencias sociales, se realizaron sobre las reformas procesales penales producidas en América Latina entre fines del siglo XX y principios del siglo XXI. El recorrido por los mismos permitirá conocer qué aspectos de las mismas fueron explorados por quienes realizaron estos estudios. En una primera sección se abordarán investigaciones focalizadas en la evolución de estas reformas a lo largo del tiempo. En una segunda, centrada en la dimensión organizacional, se explorarán las indagaciones sobre la incorporación del gerencialismo en los sistemas procesales penales reformados. Finalmente se reflexionará sobre los diversos actores que tuvieron un rol significativo en dichos procesos. La identificación de estos ejes analíticos tiene como fin, por un lado, delinear un estado de la cuestión respecto de dicha problemática a partir de presentar tanto aspectos comunes a estos procesos en la región latinoamericana, como así también, ciertas particularidades de los mismos. Por otro lado, este trabajo se propone realizar un aporte para quienes se interesen en reflexionar sobre el diseño de nuevos sistemas de justicia penal en casos que sus estudios se hayan concentrado más en la puesta en funcionamiento de los mismos que en su reconfiguración.
Poder privado y racionalidad política: perspectivas teóricas para una criminología de resistencia

Published: July 2022

El objetivo del presente artículo consiste en analizar, a partir de las categorías de daño social y violencia, las perspectivas teóricas sobre el poder privado y la racionalidad política que ofrecen las obras de Foucault y Ferrajoli. En función de ello, se delinearán algunas de las características del neoliberalismo, en tanto racionalidad política constituida actualmente en forma global y hegemónica, y se indagarán aspectos de la invasión estadounidense a Irak en 2003 como ejemplo del ejercicio de poder privado. Ello permitirá repensar la constitución de la criminología como disciplina de crítica y resistencia frente al ejercicio de poder.
«La escalera se limpia de arriba para abajo, no al revés». La Policía en el entramado de la experiencia penal juvenil en territorio
Authors: Nebra Julieta
Published: July 2022

En este artículo presentamos las distintas formas en las que la policía va (re)configurando la implementación de las medidas alternativas al encierro y/o al procesamiento judicial (MA) en el sistema penal juvenil. A partir de un trabajo etnográfico realizado en un Centrosociocomunitario de Responsabilidad Penal Juvenil (CESOC) en un municipio del conurbano bonaerense entre 2018 y 2019, relevamos los distintos tipos de hostigamiento policial que padecen los jóvenes (mayoritariamente varones) y sus consecuencias. Ponemos de manifiesto las violencias y el agravamiento de las causas judiciales, pero a la vez develamos algunas consecuencias más sutiles e igualmente perjudiciales que afectan a los jóvenes en su vida cotidiana y en las formas en las que sostienen las MA. Reponemos también, las implicancias de la territorialización de las MA, que suponen un acercamiento social, cultural, afectivo y geográfico de los/as trabajadores/as estatales hacia los jóvenes que permite matizar las «verdades policiales» en relación a su «peligrosidad». Si bien por un lado se observa que la mayoría de los/as actores/as del CESOC cuestionan el accionar policial, manifiestan cierto fatalismo en cuanto a los márgenes de acción y sus intervenciones se centran en que los jóvenes adecuen sus comportamientos para evitar el hostigamiento policial.

Published: July 2022

Advertisements tend to be packed with strong, persuasive, and emotional language. To be able to create a persuasive and emotional effect, proper linguistic features are needed. This study aims to reveal linguistic features in the form of verbs and adjectives as the main weapon in online loan advertising. In addition, this study also seeks to see the relationship between the use of adjectives in online loan advertisements with the public's view. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. The data in this study are in the form of verbs and adjectives contained in online loan application advertisements. The data sources in this study are online loan advertisements registered with the OJK. The results show that the use of verbs in online loan advertisements tends to achieve interrogative and imperative functions. The use of “cepat”, “aman”, and “mudah” adjectives is intended as a strategy to increase the selling value and attractiveness of loan products. The use of “cepat”, “aman”, and “mudah” adjectives in online loan advertisements tends to describe changes in people's views or mindsets in general, especially in the economic field (loan services).

RITUAL KEMATIAN MA AYUN BAREH DI JORONG PETOK, PANTI SELATAN, PANTI, PASAMAN SUMATERA BARAT
Authors: Ilhanifah Annisa
Published: July 2022

ABSTRAKDi dalam masyarakat Jorong Petok terdapat suatu tradisi atau kebiasaan yang dilaksanakan ketika ada seseorang masyarakat yang meninggal dunia, yaitu Tradisi Ma Ayun Bareh. Tradisi ini biasanya dilaksanakan sebelum jenazah dimakamkan, akan tetapi boleh juga dilaksanakan ketika pada bilangan hari. Tidak ada ketetapan dalam waktu pelaksanaan, tergantung kepada ahli waris. Tradisi Ma Ayun Bareh ini diyakini oleh mayarakat sekitar sebagai sarana untuk membayar fidiyah orang yang maninggal dunia, baik itu fidiyah shalat maupun fidiyah puasa. Pada tahap pelaksanaan tidak semua masyarakat yang melaksanakan tradisi ini, dikarenkan tidak ada paksaan atau keharusan terhadap masyarakat setempat. Disebabkan tradisi ini hanya bersifat Sunnah.Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan dengan cara observasi, dan wawancara. Kemudian digunakan teknik analisis data seperti reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pertama tradisi ini bisa dipercayai dan diyakini oleh masyarakat Jorong Petok karena ajaran ini yang diajarkan oleh guru-gurunya, yang mana tradisi ini dalah suatu amalan yang membantu si mayat di dalam kubur. Kedua dari proses pelaksanaan, ma ayun barehi pada umumnya dilaksankan sebelum si mayat dimakamkan. Akan tetapi ada juga yang melaksanakannnya pada pelaksanaan hari bilangan.

Authors: Yuwono Ardian Indro
Published: July 2022

In media industry, women are often represented as an object which cannot be separated from their sexual attractiveness. This kind of female sexualization also presents in various video games, such as Dead or Alive 6. Through this study, researcher tries to understand how female characters are represented in Dead or Alive 6 using Roland Barthes’s semiotic analysis. As for the result, four picked characters, Kasumi, Honoka, Marie Rose, and Momiji represent signs of sexualization such as their fashion, innocence, legal character but looks like an underage, or a paradox between sacredness and taboo. The sexualization of characters in Dead or Alive 6 turns the sexual traits of legal female characters as its selling point. Dead or Alive 6 sexualizes its female characters as part of its selling value by selling various expensive downloadable contents (DLC) in form of maid, bikini, or any other sexy costumes that has nothing to do with characters’ ability. The “water mode” and “soft mode” also can be considered as sexual exploitation towards the female characters as its selling point. It can be read that the game takes advantage from the players’ sexual fantasy as a goldmine.

Decay of Liberal Democracy in Europe
Authors: Niedźwiecki Artur
Published: July 2022

This article aims to present an evolution of the liberal model of world politics along with the potential consequences of this change at the level of the European integration project, taking into account the tools of the school of law and economics. The work elucidates basic elements of the idea of liberal democracy, both in internal (legal and economic system) and external dimensions (attitude to supranational organisations). The liberal order described in the text is confronted with critical statements delivered by creators of the concept of illiberal democracy, according to whom crisis of the paradigm of law and international economy can be currently observed. The recession of the liberal model of global politics is manifested in the tendency to modify the constitutional framework of particular countries and the decomposition of integration processes that have been anchoring liberal order in a united Europe so far. According to the author, the above phenomenon may initiate a split in the Western world, leading to the breakdown of its political unity and the beginning of the era of uncertainty, as a prelude to the emergence of a new order on the Old Continent, the framework of which is not yet known.
Viktor Orbán’s Missing Affinity Towards Alternative Media on Facebook
Authors: Rétfalvi Györgyi
Published: July 2022

The paper finds no liked pages by Viktor Orbán, then the Prime Minister of Hungary, on his Facebook page. Further content analysis is needed, which may help unravel the deeper connections with alternative news sites. This finding begs for alternative explanations. Was it due to a lack of interest or a need? The capture of most news media in Hungary may suggest that this might have been a plausible answer. Or was it due to a lack of time? We could identify a specific form of allocution when Orbán’s FB page became a central information source for news outlets. Be that as it may, this negative finding is important for the political communication theory on social media. Populist or right-wing leaders may not publicly indicate interest or affinity to any alternative media, especially when a few alternative media may oppose their policies. Moreover, a lack of interest in public liking of other sources or institutions close to a politician may indirectly suggest contempt for them – ultimately suggesting anti-plurality and authoritarian tendencies. Finally, although Hungary may be seen as a laboratory of alternative politics, this is certainly not true for using alternative or advanced approaches to communication on social media.
Econometric evidence on happiness and its determinants among rice farmers in leyte, Philippines
Authors: Casinillo Leomarich , Seriño Moises Neil
Published: July 2022

The study investigated the influence of socio-economic factors on rice farmers' subjective well-being in barangay Tabunok, Hilongos, Leyte, Philippines. A face-to-face interview was conducted among 177 randomly selected rice farmers and 50 purposive samples of wage workers for comparison. Descriptive statistics and econometric modeling was used to examine the determinants of happiness in farming. Results show that the farmers’ actual happiness is significantly lower than the expectations.  Knowledge, skills, health, and farm owner make them more competent than the other farmers and increase their happiness level. An increase in income leads to an increase in household assets, giving benefits and comfort to the family and directly influencing their well-being. Furthermore, results reveal that farmers’ level of happiness is significantly lower compared to wage workers. Also, farmers are negatively affected by the price increase of agricultural inputs and low harvested output prices in the country.
Factors affecting the value of online advertising among Vietnamese youths
Authors: Ho Vi Truc
Published: July 2022

The author's research bases on studies of Ducoffe (1996), Tsang, Ho and Liang (2002), Murat, Sibel and Ceyda (2016) and Firat (2019), proposed factors affecting the value of online advertising include informativeness, entertainment, credibility, irritation, and social interaction. Two hundred ninety valid answer sheets of young people aged 18 - 25 in Vietnam answered through Google Form are analyzed with SPSS 20 software to verify the reliability of Cronbach's Alpha, EFA, and regression correlation analysis. This research also uses the test of variance to determine whether there are differences between the demographic factors and the value of online advertising. The research results show that all five factors that affect advertising value, from the strongest to the weakest, are credibility, social interaction, informativeness, entertainment, and irritation. It is identical to the results of Ducoffe (1996). Thus, the research shows that credibility has the most substantial influence on the value of online advertising, whereas some other studies have suggested that that factor is entertainment (Tsang, Ho & Liang, 2002; Murat, Sibel & Ceyda, 2016) or value information (Cho & Choen, 2004). Especially the study also discovered that the ability of social interactions also has the affection with the value of advertising. This result receives the similarity from Ko, Cho and Roberts (2005) research. Simultaneously, the results also discover that demographic factors such as gender, age, and income do not differ from the value of online advertising. In the practical, aspect the results can help advertisers have a suitable strategy and improve advertising effectiveness. So that enterprises could attract more customers.
An ethics crisis and corporate failure in food and beverage companies. evidence from Zimbabwe
Authors: Nhete Albert
Published: July 2022

Lack of adherence to ethics and principles appears to have been one of the main causes of corporate financial distress around the world. A lot of unethical practices have contributed to revenue leakages and reluctance by investors to buy a stake in the industry. The prevalence of unethical practices, illegal behavior, illicit and deceptive practices in food and beverage companies is an unsolved issue. The aim of the research was to find out the effect of ethical problems on company’s financial performance in food and beverage industry. The high failure rate of brands in the food and beverage companies has given the researcher interest to investigate the impact of ethics on financial performance of a company. Due to the diverse nature of food and beverage industry, an action research inquiry of 20 interviews and 100 questionnaires was conducted. A mixed method convergent approach was used to analyse collected data using questionnaires and interviews. Findings from the study that there is strong positive relationship between ethical conduct of employees, managers, business conduct and the financial performance of food manufacturing company. The study results show that ethical branding significantly enhances the firm's reputation; and good reputation reinforces the brand in turn. Ethical branding can provide the company with a differential advantage as a growing number of consumers become more ethically conscious. It is therefore recommended that, ethical issues should be considered in all company departments and embedded into total quality management processes of an organization as it affect potential investors and customers.

Published: July 2022

This study is part of the context of the Research Project signed between the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MAPA) and the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology Goiano (IF Goiano) for the development of methodologies with a view to implement and operate an agreement monitoring center. Its objective is to present the tool (software) developed via web to organize the structure of the chain of value of the Ministry of Agriculture's system of agreements, map performance indicators and classify process optimization priorities, based on parameters of efficiency and effectiveness of the reengineering processes. This is applied research in the empirical scenario of the Agreements Sector of MAPA, which uses the case study procedure to achieve its objective. The software development is based on the theoretical framework of Business Process Management (BPM) and Lean Six Sigma, with the application of the GUT Matrix tool and the Eisenhower Matrix for decision making. The primary data were collected through unstructured interviews with nine key informants working in the macro-processes of formalization, execution and monitoring and rendering of accounts of agreements. The results contain the characterization of the MAPA agreement area, highlighting the main activities carried out in the three macroprocesses, the description of the modelling characteristics and functionalities of the developed software and the discussion of benefits arising from the application of information technologies to the Business Process Management (BPM).  It can be inferred that the Lean methodology is plausible as a logical “production line”, since it is adaptable to a structured algorithm, which provides an orderly solution of problems focused on continuous improvement.

One of the main challenges was achieving high positioning accuracy of the laser while maintaining a form factor that allows minimally invasive insertion of the robotic device and minimally invasive device manipulation during large-area surface treatments.
Electrodeposition and corrosion characterization of epoxy/polyaniline coated AZ61 magnesium alloy
Authors: Murugesan Vigneshkumar , Perumal Ashoka Varthanan
Published: July 2022

An epoxy with 7% polyaniline (PANI) powder coating by electrostatic deposition is proposed to enhance the corrosion resistance of AZ61 magnesium alloys. The coating thickness is varied from 85 to 130 microns, and the results are compared to the corrosion resistance of epoxy coated and uncoated AZ61 magnesium alloy. The surface characterization and corrosion behaviour of AZ61 magnesium alloy + epoxy/PANI coating are examined using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, salt spray test, potentiodynamic test and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It is observed that the polymer coating protects the base metal against corrosion and the corrosion resistance increases with coating thickness. The corrosion rate of the uncoated, 130 µm coating thickness of epoxy coated and epoxy/PANI coated AZ magnesium alloy is observed to be 0.5379, 0.0869 and 0.0372 mm/year, respectively. The corrosion resistance of epoxy/PANI coating is superior to the epoxy coating. The increase in corrosion resistance of the epoxy/PANI coated AZ61 alloy is attributed to the physical insulation and suppression of magnesium dissolution.
