ESCOLA SUPERIOR DE GUERRA SOB UM NOVO OLHAR
Authors: Cordeiro Dayse Lúcia Alvino
Published: December 2020

A Escola Superior de Guerra (ESG), Instituição criada em 1949, é uma Escola de Altos Estudos de Política, Estratégia e Defesa. A ESG está subordinada ao Ministério da Defesa e tem por objetivo desenvolver e consolidar os conhecimentos necessários ao exercício de funções de direção e assessoramento superior para o planejamento da Defesa Nacional, incluindo-se os aspectos fundamentais da Segurança e do Desenvolvimento. A Escola funciona como um centro de estudos e pesquisas, cabendo a ela planejar, coordenar e desenvolver os cursos estabelecidos pelo Ministro de Estado da Defesa. Atualmente, a ESG realiza seus cursos no bairro da Urca, na cidade do Rio de Janeiro e, em decorrência da Estratégia Nacional de Defesa, iniciou suas atividades em Brasília a partir do ano de 2012. Apesar de seu rico histórico, que demonstra toda uma trajetória de sucessos na formação de militares e civis, a Escola tem sido alvo de constantes questionamentos acerca de sua real importância, da validade de seus propósitos e missão, bem como da necessidade de sua expansão para a capital brasileira. Nesse contexto, o artigo pretende responder tais questionamentos a fim de concorrer para a compreensão e reflexão quanto à relevância da ESG para o país e, finalmente, sua contribuição para a disseminação da mentalidade de defesa no meio civil.

AMAZÔNIA NA DEFESA NACIONAL:
Authors: Rodrigues Fernando da Silva
Published: December 2020

A construção das fronteiras sul-americanas e os debates sobre a internacionalização da grande floresta tropical estão inseridos no projeto do Estado brasileiro de defesa nacional desde o início da colonização portuguesa. O final dos anos 1930 foi crucial para a história política nacional, principalmente, com relação ao reconhecimento das fronteiras Norte e Centro-Oeste. As linhas telegráficas do General Rondon ajudaram a ocupar os sertões do Centro-Oeste e da Amazônia, mas a inspeção de fronteiras completara o serviço de consolidação de nossa soberania territorial, ratificando os nossos reais limites terrestres.
MIGRAÇÕES FEMININAS NA FRONTEIRA AMAZÔNICA:
Authors: Falcão Ana Taisa da Silva
Published: December 2020

O presente artigo tem por objetivo refletir sobre os processos de migrações forçadas de mulheres e meninas através da fronteira entre Brasil e Colômbia, tendo como principal hipótese para a existência desse fenômeno, as violações sexuais sofridas pelas mulheres no marco do conflito armado colombiano. Tal análise se justifica pela escassez de trabalhos, principalmente no campo historiográfico, que tenham como preocupação fundamental a violência sexual como elemento motivador do fluxo migratório feminino na fronteira amazônica e, ao mesmo tempo, como uma das armas de guerra utilizadas por todos os atores armados do conflito colombiano. A partir das contribuições das Ciências Sociais, da Geografia, da História, especialmente a História do Gênero, das Migrações Forçadas e História Militar, sustentaremos nossa análise com base nos conceitos de gênero, classe e raça/etnia, em relação com os conceitos de fronteira, arma e deslocamento forçado. A relação entre as categorias teóricas citadas e o processo de migração feminina na fronteira amazônica será realizada a partir do diálogo com os relatórios produzidos pela Consultoria para los Derechos Humanos y el Desplazamiento (CODHES), os dados estatísticos de solicitações de refúgio de colombianos no Brasil, elaborados pelo Alto Comissariado das Nações Unidas para os Refugiados (ACNUR) e a limitada literatura já produzida no Brasil e na Colômbia sobre o tema. Partimos do pressuposto de que a violência sexual no contexto de conflito armado, que por si só já impõe um medo generalizado, é especialmente cruel para as mulheres, pois estas se veem vítimas de múltiplas violências de guerra, são sempre humilhadas, torturadas e violentadas por meio deagressões de cunho sexual. E quando falamos de um território com características étnicas e demográficas tão específicas quanto a Amazônia, a violência sexual exercida pelos atores armados colombianos se torna uma arma com consequências genocidas, uma vez que atenta contra a existência de comunidades indígenas que já se encontram em situação de vulnerabilidade social. O que se pretende com este trabalho é fomentar um debate, no interior da Historiografia, que culmine com o aumento de pesquisas sobre a transnacionalização do conflito armado colombiano, através das migrações transfronteiriças.

Uma leitura da América luso-espanhola e da África sob a ótica do nativo. O texto De olhos nas penas, de Ana Maria Machado, conduz a viagem às três regiões pelas quais Miguel, passageiro onírico da narrativa, passa em busca de sua identidade — quer acompanhando a longa jornada de seus pais no exílio, quer tomando ciência do passado de povos que reconhece como irmãos. A parceria multidisciplinar permite um alargamento das fronteiras do texto e das culturas que nele se hibridizam sob o abrigo teórico dos Estudos Culturais. Há diferentes fronteiras entre os povos da América luso-hispânica e os da África, a da língua inclusive – mas há também uma identidade no passado que nos une e nos torna irmãos, cúmplices de uma mesma jornada, pois, advindos da situação de colônia, de estado de exceção civis ou militares, temos uma cultura múltipla e rica que precisamos assumir em sua plenitude.

مدينة رواية لا مدينة فقه وعمل متوارث: دراسة في أثر أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه الحديثي والفقهي في البصرة
Authors: SNOBAR ‪ahmad
Published: December 2020

تصف هذه الدراسة الحركة الحديثية والفقهية في مدينة البصرة في النصف الثاني من القرن الأول، وتتخصص في أثر الصحابي الجليل أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه في البصرة، كونه أشهر الصحابة الذين عاشوا فيها في تلك الحقبة وأجلهم وأطولهم صحبة للنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، محللة كثيرا من الروايات المتعلقة به ومركزة على العلاقات العلمية بينه وبين الصحابة الآخرين والتابعين فيها وفي غيرها من الأمصار.

وتوضح الدراسة مظاهر قوة الحركة الحديثية وضعف الحركة الفقهية في تلك الحقبة في البصرة، فتدرس أثر أنس في طلابه، وهل تخرّج به الفقهاء أم المحدثون، وتدرس علاقاته بالتابعين ورحلاتهم إليه، وأخذ الفقهاء منهم من الأمصار الأخرى عنه، وشخصيته الفقهية من خلال مصنف ابن أبي شيبة وغير ذلك، لتخلص إلى أن الملكة الفقهية عنده لم تكن على الدرجة ذاتها التي تظهر في شخصية ابن عباس وابن عمر رضي الله عنهما، وتخلص كذلك إلى أن البصرة لم تكن مدينة فقهية تعتني بالعمل المتوارث المنقول من طبقة فقهاء الصحابة إلى فقهاء التابعين كحال مدينتي المدينة والكوفة، ولكنها كانت مدينة تُعنى برواية الأحاديث ونشرها والعمل بما فيها بفضل الصحابي الجليل المكثر من الرواية أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه، إلا أن نشر تلك الأحاديث لم يصاحبه حركة فقهية تضاهي حركة ابن عباس في مكة في الحقبة ذاتها، فتأخرت البصرة فقهيا في جيل الصحابة ونشطت حديثيا، فحق أن يُطلق عليها إنها مدينة رواية لا مدينة فقه وعمل متوارث.

Published: December 2020

The paper takes up the theoretical aspects that I dealt with in the first part of the AIFIRM-APB position paper, Business Model and SREP: the role of the CRO and the CFO and which I commented on in the Webinar of last July 9th. Starting from a defining framework, I deepen the theme of business model risk and its relationship with strategic risk. And I raise the question of revising the banking risk framework. In particular, I highlight how the business model and strategic risk depend on the management model. At the same time, ample space is dedicated to illustrating how the management model risk influences the sustainability of the business model. I examine the operational implications of the theoretical framework of the business model and propose a review of the business planning process. The purpose of the article is to start a debate with the intervention of risk management specialists above all.
Pandemic risk: operational aspects

Published: December 2020

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Intesa Sanpaolo has developed a contagion model aimed at calibrating the measures to be taken to safeguard its employees and the provision of banking services, according to the risk deriving from the external environment. The model is based on both external and internal views: the combination of such elements provides a holistic picture of the overall contagion risk level, enabling the opportunity to take informed decisions for each geographical area. One of the most useful external indicators to feed the model is the reproduction index (Rt) provided by the University of Pavia which is calculated using the Poisson autoregressive (PAR) model. Though more research and development are needed, the proposed model represents a useful tool for supporting the Top Managers in the decision process to continue business as usual safely.

Flâneur e a cidade moderna
Authors: Ferreira de Santana Wilck Camilo , Justino de Almeida Sherry Morgana
Published: December 2020

Este artigo busca analisar a figuração da cidade na poética de Joaquim Cardozo [1897-1978] considerando a dimensão modernista de sua obra. Para tal, realizamos um estudo acerca da cidade do Recife impressa na literatura com base na análise dialética de “Tarde no Recife” [1925], “Recife de Outubro” [1947] e “Recife Morto” [1924], todos eles publicados no volume Poemas (1947), tendo como aporte teórico crítico o pensamento de Berman (2007), Benjamin (1994), Bosi (2000), Chevalier & Gheerbrant (2015), Paz (1996) e Rezende (2008). Com isso, objetiva-se interpretar a cidade como um lugar de memória na qual a obra do autor funciona como um ato comunicativo de significativa relevância histórica de um sistema social marcado por um mundo mergulhado no progresso inexorável do capitalismo e, consequentemente, na reformulação do espaço, como uma perpétua mudança do tempo.
Software Reusable Components With Repository System
Authors: Srinivas Chintakindi , Rao Dr.C.V.Guru
Published: December 2020

Software reuse is the process of creating software systems from existing software rather than building them from scratch. The goal is the use of reusable components as building blocks in new systems with modifications occurring in a controlled way. The reuse of software components is the key to improve productivity and quality levels in software engineering. One of the most promising approaches to reduce costs and improve reliability is component-based development, which aims to allow new applications to be assembled from prefabricated parts rather than coded from scratch. Software reuse involves building software that is reusable by design and building with reusable software. Software reuse includes reusing both the products of previous software projects and the processes deployed to produce them, leading to a wide spectrum of reuse approaches, from the building blocks (reusing products) approach, on one hand to the generative or reusable processor (reusing processes), on the other.

Authors: Devi Suprava , Panigrahi Sunil Kumar
Published: December 2020

The development and deployment of managerial decision support system represents an emerging trend in the business and organizational field in which the increased application of Decision Support Systems (DSS) can be compiling by Intelligent Systems (IS). Decision Support Systems (DSS) are a specific class of computerized information system that supports business and organizational decision-making activities. A properly designed DSS is an interactive software-based system intended to help decision makers compile useful information from raw data, documents, personal knowledge, and/or business models to identify and solve problems and make decisions. Competitive business pressures and a desire to leverage existing information technology investments have led many firms to explore the benefits of intelligent data management solutions such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). This study proposes a new PSO (SPSO)-model based on product mix model for optimizing Constraint values as well as objective function. The formulations of the objective function for the minimization problem. This technology is designed to help businesses to finding multi objective functions, which can help to understand the purchasing behavior of their key customers, detect likely credit card or insurance claim fraud, predict probable changes in financial markets, etc.
Model Based Approach to Prevent SQL Injection Attacks on .NET Applications
Authors: Jain Shikhar , Pais Alwyn R.
Published: December 2020

Web applications support static and dynamic queries to access the database. Dynamic queries take input from the user and use that input to form the query. A user can give malicious input to the application which results in an incorrect query or an unauthorized query and performs vulnerable action on the database. In this paper, we presented an approach to prevent SQL injection attack (SQLIA) on .Net applications using static and dynamic analysis of the queries. The paper explains comparison of Dynamic query model and static query model in order to validate the query before sending it to the database. The result obtained proves that our designed tool has achieved prevention from SQL injection at greater extend.
THE CORRELATION BETWEEN HIERARCHICAL AUTHORITY AND KNOWLEDGE AUTHORITY
Authors: ŞENGÖZ Murat
Published: December 2020

In order to reveal the relationship between hierarchical authority and knowledge authority, the most important issues of management, authority, power and influence are examined in the examination of the concepts. Unfortunately, apart from the issue of authority, issues of power, power and influence are among the most neglected issues of management and organization. The subject of authority is generally dealt with in the context of the organization. However, the management application is completely related to the use of power. Authority is only one type of power use. It can be said that the main difference between knowledge and hierarchical authority is the structure of the organization. As organizations become more complex in the information age, the problems that managers have to solve have become more complex. In addition, knowledge-based parameters have increased in management processes. It is not possible for a single manager to solve all the problems under the most optimum solution. Because today, one of the important powers of the rulers, and perhaps the information as a source of authority should be to benefit from.
CUMHURİYETİN İLK YILLARINDA TÜRK OCAĞI’NIN ANKARA’DAKİ FAALİYETLERİ VE KAPATILMASI MESELESİ
Authors: ÖLÇEKÇİ Haluk
Published: December 2020

20. yüzyılın başında Osmanlı İmparatorluğunda Türklüğe hizmet amacıyla kurulan Türk Ocağı, ideolojisi ve faaliyetleriyle yeni Türk devletinin inşasında etkili olmuş kuruluşların başında gelmektedir. Milli Mücadele yıllarında aktif rol alan Türk Ocağı, daha sonra taşındığı Ankara’da Cumhuriyetin kuruluşuna hizmet etmiştir. Başkentteki önemli faaliyetlerinin yanı sıra bütün Türkiye’de milli kimliğin benimsetilmesine ve yaşatılmasına büyük katkıda bulunmuştur. Ocaklar, Cumhuriyet Türkiye’sinde yaşanan büyük kültürel ve siyasi dönüşümün merkezinde yer almıştır. Türk milliyetçiliğini temsil eden Türk Ocağı’nın Ankara’ya taşınması, Cumhuriyetin alacağı şekil bakımından sembolik öneme sahiptir. Yeni rejime temel konularda destek veren Türk Ocağı mensupları, devletin milliyetçi temeller üzerine inşasının aktörlerindendir. Cumhuriyet kendi kurumsal yapısını oluştururken, bu yeni düzenin sivil ayağının gelişmesini ve halka ulaşmasını kolaylaştırmak vazifesi Türk Ocağı’na düşmüştür. İnkılâpların halka anlatılmasıyla görevlendirilen Türk Ocağı’na Mustafa Kemal Atatürk ve çevresi yakın ilgi göstermiştir. Ancak ülkü ve amaç birliği, Türk Ocağı’nın kısa bir süre sonra kapatılmasına engel olamamıştır. Bu makale, Cumhuriyetin modernist milliyetçiliği ile Türk Ocakları’nın geleneksel milliyetçiliğinin devletin kuruluşundaki birlikteliklerinin ardından, farklılaşan ideolojik duruşlarını ve hangi nedenlerle yollarının ayrıldığını tartışmaktadır.
UYUŞTURUCU MADDE BAĞIMLILIĞINDA AİLENİN ETKİSİ VE BAĞIMLI SAYISININ AZALTILMASINDA JANDARMANIN ETKİNLİĞİ: İSTANBUL’DA BİR UYGULAMA
Authors: KOÇANLI Murat
Published: December 2020

Günümüzde uyuşturucu madde bağımlılığı ile ilgili tartışmalar gerek yazılı gerekse görsel basında çok sık yer almaya başlamıştır. Bunun en önemli nedeni, özellikle henüz 20-25 yaşındaki gençlerin birer birer uyuşturucu madde kullanımından dolayı yaşamlarını kaybetmesidir. Aslında bu tür vakalara Türk toplumunda fazla rastlanılmamaktadır. Nitekim gelişmiş batı toplumlarına göre uyuşturucu madde bağımlı miktarı oldukça düşüktür. Bu araştırmanın amacı, uyuşturucu madde bağımlılığında ailenin etkisini incelemektir. Çalışmanın örneklemi 15-25 yaş aralığında, herhangi bir uyuşturucu madde kullanan ve İstanbul AMATEM’de tedavi almakta olan 103 gençten oluşmaktadır. Uyuşturucu madde bağımlılığının toplumlardan büyük tepki görmesi nedeniyle, bağımlı miktarlarını tespit etmek çok güç olmaktadır. Bu nedenle, uyuşturucu madde bağımlısı olup tedaviye karar veren kitlelere ulaşmak için hastanelerden istifade edilmiştir. Yapılan analiz sonuçlarından; anne-genç ilişkisi, anne-genç arasındaki sorunlar, anne-baba arasındaki geçimsizlik ve ailedeki alkol kullanımının gencin uyuşturucu madde kullanımı üzerinde etkili olduğu saptanmıştır. Bununla birlikte kardeş-genç ilişkisi ile gencin madde tedavi kararı arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu bulgulanmıştır. Buna karşın gençlerin uyuşturucu madde tedavisine karar verme nedeni ile diğer aile değişkenleri arasında anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilememiştir. Bu veriler doğrultusunda, uyuşturucu madde bağımlılığı ile mücadelede koordinatör görevi bulunan Jandarma Genel Komutanlığına bağımlı sayısının azaltılmasında faydalı olabilecek bazı sosyal önlemler önerilmiştir.
HOUSEHOLDS’ RESILIENCE TO COVID 19 PANDEMIC IN NIGERIA: WAY FORWARD
Authors:   Department of Agricultural Extension and Rural Development,  University of Ibadan, Oyo State, O. Aminu
Published: December 2020

The impact of the current global pandemic on households’ economy in Nigeria cannot be overemphasized. Undoubtedly, households’ resilience is threatened by the global pandemic that has ravaged the means of survival of people in both urban and rural areas. The onset of the lockdown that affected all individuals put setback on economic activities and this impacted negatively on the income of households. The already dwindling economy of households, especially those in rural areas become hampered thereby enhancing vulnerability. The poor becomes poorer because there is no back up that the poor could easily fall on. Also, the capacity to recover and adapt become impaired. The emergence of COVID 19 has implication for food security sustainability among households. This study employed the use of secondary sources to examine the vulnerability of households to the global pandemic and the ramifications of the effect of COVID 19 on households’ economy in the rural and urban areas of Nigeria. Containment strategies (such as innovative information system delivery, interest free loan especially to entrepreneurs, sensitization and promotion of home gardening particularly in urban, among others) that could stimulate households’ resilience or foster quick economic recovery in urban and rural Nigeria in the bid to ensure food security and livelihood sustainability were suggested.

Published: December 2020

Covid-19 pandemic reached Nigeria in February 2020 with its debilitating characteristics of lockdown and social distance. The Nigerian economy responded with all socio-economic indices turning negative between February and August 2020.With deteriorating socio-economic indicators, the Nigerian government reacted with Covid-19 containment policies which yielded positive results in limiting the spread of the pandemic. On the other hand, the other policies aim at stimulating economic revival has yielded little anticipated results. The government embarked of conflicting policies of expansion and contraction simultaneously thus frustrating the attainment of set goals of reviving the economy. A central sub-sector of the economy with potentials for reviving the economy - peasant farming is altogether ignored. Structured on the theoretical framework of new classical school of economic thought, the paper employed retrospective methodology for analysis. The way forward is to embark on short run expansionary policies. All contraction policies like increase taxation should be reversed. Specific short run policies should be directed at the surplus labour and land in the rural peasant agricultural sector using the channels of traditional rulers and community based organizations. The short term policies should be in line with the lifespan of staple crops like rice hence surplus food produced will stifle the galloping inflation and the resources injected in the rural areas will reduce the worsening unemployment. These positive short run outcomes would expunge the economy out of the economic morass occasioned by the Covid-19 pandemic and guarantee sustainable economic growth.

A very recent article published in The Guardian (2020) reported on how the surge of domestic violence cases is a pattern being repeated A very recent article published in The Guardian (2020) reported on how the surge of domestic violence cases is a pattern being repeated very recent article published in The Guardian (2020) reported on how the surge of domestic violence cases is a pattern being repeated Among measures recommended by the World Health organization to stem the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus is the restriction of population movement (lockdown). With the lockdown, there appear to be a global surge in intimate partner violence (IPV) and how this impact on maternal health is the motivation for this study. Understanding IPV and how it influences maternal health, within an economic framework will be potentially relevant especially with the increasing use of lockdown to curb the surge of the virus. In this study, we identify factors of domestic violence against women within couples who were currently in marital or cohabiting partnerships. Also, we investigate whether domestic violence influences the decision of women to terminate pregnancies. We use data from the 2018 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS). Multivariate logistic regressions were used to model the predictors of domestic violence, and its influence on the decision to terminate pregnancies among married women. Of the 8,910 married women interviewed for domestic violence, 35.33% had ever experienced a form of domestic violence. We discover that having higher education, not being poor, and residing in urban areas reduce the odds of women experiencing domestic violence. Further, findings from the study indicate that women who own land, and whose husbands use alcohol have increased odds of experiencing domestic violence. Also, the results suggest that currently married women experiencing domestic violence have 1.25 times increased odds of terminating pregnancies compared with their counterparts that are not experiencing domestic violence. Our results suggest the implementation of short-term measures to address the issues of poverty and alcohol consumption during lockdown periods. Long-term measures could include legislations supporting compulsory girl-child education and criminalising all forms of domestic violence. Importantly, public actions to contain domestic violence in order to improve maternal health should be implemented in the context of the dynamics of a non-cooperative relationship existing between married couples.
Beyond Academic Career Progression, Job Enhancement and Promotion: Who are the Marketing/Management Lecturers Really Addressing in their Research Writings?

Published: December 2020

It is the mantra in the academic world to either “publish or perish”. Without publications in journals, and attendance in National and International Conferences,it is practically impossible for lecturers/tutors to proceed to the nextcareer grade or promotion especially in Nigerian tertiary institutions. The current mantra “publish or perish” drives all faculty members and lecturers towards research and publication in reputable journals. Most especially in the universities and most first generation polytechnics in Nigeria, where the value of the publication is respected when it is in refereed journals, preferably those which have achieved very high reputation. This paper is to examine the extent to which academic research papers must inform, educate, contribute to knowledge and entertain the practitioners who are engaged in either management or business lecturing. There are evidences in the western world of Europe and America especially, and particularly in Nigeria that our management and business journals are neither read nor recognized by the practitioners. Do the practitioners and government officials even read or consult our journals in Nigeria? The consequences for academics and other writers is that if our papers are not read by practitioners in the subject area is very fundamental. We can use the research papers for professional career promotion in our place of employments, but should this be the only reason? We must try to write and publish our papers to meet the demands of academically related journals and publications, which will further our careers and also to use the outlets that are likely to be read by the practitioners. It is a somewhat difficult, but not an impossible task. The evidence from this paper especially from the United Kingdom and Nigeria will lay semblance to what is obtainable in Nigeria. The readership of our work most likely are disappointingly exclusive. This paper evaluates the models of academic research writing, the sources of materials for writers and lecturers in research writing, the findings indicates that if lecturers research writings must be useful, it must involve practical facts relevant to management managers, who will invariably alter their reading habits to accommodate research writings. Managers must also contribute to conference and seminars.

Published: December 2020

The intervention of the African Union (AU) in the 2019 coup and post-coup crisis of Sudan is the focal point of this study. The objective of the study is to evaluate the peaceful resolution of the 2019 coup and post-coup crisis in Sudan by the African Union. The research questions of the study are: What is the background of the 2019 Sudan Coup? What role did the Forces of Freedom and Change play in the 2019 coup and post-coup crisis of Sudan? How effective is the African Peace and Security Architecture (APSA) with respect to its mandate to intervene in member states. What are the methods used by the AU as it intervened in the 2019 coup and post-coup crisis in Sudan? The study is guided by the theoretical framework of Collective Security theory with major proponents such as Cardinal Richelieu Immanuel Kant, Woodrow Wilson etc. The study concludes that the prominent role played by the AU in the coup and post-coup crisis in Sudan is highly commendable but the lessons drawn there from can enhance future operations. The study recommends that the military capacity of the African Standby Force should be invigorated with adequate manpower and firepower to effectively carry out peace enforcement operations. Also the AU should draw a template and procedure for interface with the regional organisation of the state engulfed in conflict or crisis that the APSA is to mediate to avoid disjointed and uncoordinated mediation. The qualitative research methodology was adopted for the study.

This study examine how covid-19 has induced social changes and criminality in Nigeria as a result of economic lockdown, restriction on inter-state movement, closure of international borders, restriction of religious worship, restrictions on all forms of marital rites, ban on all burial and funeral activities, suspension of all educational activities, and social interactions replaced by social distancing. Due to this alteration of the normal human life, and since survival is key, hence the issue of criminality. This paper examined cases of criminality in the country during lockdown, government interventions to mitigate the increase in criminality as a result of the pandemic, implication of covid-19 on fashion, determinant, forms and resistance to social change. The paper is qualitative in nature and relied principally on secondary data to achieved the scope of the study, these includes publications sourced from text books, bulletins, journals, government documents, newspapers and internet. The conflict and conspiracy theory of social change was adopted as the theoretical framework for the study. The findings in this study showed that the government with the aim to mitigate the spread of the pandemic in the country restricted the movement of its citizens with compulsory sit-at-home, thus affecting the normal life of its citizens, government intervention at the federal, state and local level is grossly inadequate to cushion the effect of the epidemic on the vulnerable citizens of the country, several structural factors helped triggered Nigeria’s current economic crises such as poor public health infrastructure, institutional corruption, weak and underdeveloped digital economy, lack of social welfare programme, leadership problem, over-dependent on oil sector of the economy, lack of saving culture and, high debt profile of Nigeria. The paper recommends that government should create an enabling environment to increase the standard of living of its citizens as poverty fuels criminality, the government should not politicalize the distribution of relief materials to victims in the face of emergencies, since the protection of the welfare and well-being of the people is the reason for governance, need for good governance and the rule of law, and government should improve capacity-building strategies for adequate security of life and property in Nigeria.

This study strives to unravel the impact of leadership crisis and political instability in Africa with specific reference to the Gbagbo-Quattara leadership tussle in Cote d’Ivoire. The study relied on secondary sources of data and the post-behavioural theory as its theoretical framework. The study adopted the descriptive research method while data for the study were analysed using qualitative method and content analysis. It was observed that the Gbagbo-Quattara leadership crisis and several others in Africa are driven by personal interest and refusal to accept the result of the presidential election declared by Independent Electoral Commission of Cote d’Ivoire. Further findings from the study revealed that the pressure mounted by the African Union, Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the United Nations contributed immensely to the early resolution of the leadership crisis in Cote d’Ivoire. To avoid leadership crisis and political instability in Africa, regional and international election observes should be deployed to monitor all elections across the world. In addition, regional and international organizations and agencies should also sanction citizens and leaders whose actions and conduct constitute a threat to peace and security at all levels.

O contexto social da obra de Ellen Meiksins Wood e a busca por sistematizar uma teoria de classes
Authors: Nascimento Jefferson Ferreira do
Published: December 2020

O artigo resgata a proposta de Ellen Wood sobre a necessidade de sistematizar uma teoria sobre classes que embase uma renovação do materialismo histórico. Wood pretende em sua renovação embasar a luta pela Democracia Substantiva em que esteja ao alcance do poder do povo não só os ritos que desembocam em uma representação política, mas também a real possibilidade de isegoria, de autodeterminação dos produtores, mediante a “liberdade de livre associação (sic)”. Tal intento só pode ocorrer a partir da organização da classe operária, de uma classe como sujeito histórico, para a luta de classes contra os apropriadores amparados pelo Poder Estatal. Para isto, o artigo resgata dados biográficos, o ideal humano e o contexto social da produção de Ellen Wood para compreender a especificidade histórica das suas ideias. Com isso, explica-se o motivo pelo qual a autora entende que a concepção de classe que atende ao empreendimento é a concepção formulada pelo historiador britânico E. P. Thompson.
