The Importance of Involving Community Organizations for Preventing Destructive Fishing Activities in Mannar, Sri Lanka
Authors: Peramunagama S. S. M. , Ramanathan Thusyanthini
Published: July 2021

The irresponsible destructive fishing practices with respect to the ecosystem approach have remained a major concern since the elimination of these practices has not been easy despite efforts. There is an urgent need to identify the different types of destructive fishing methods and their threats to fisheries then, to assess how the different organizations/groups/individuals confront with these threats. This study was carried out in Pesalai, a fisheries village in the Mannar district of Northern Sri Lanka in the years 2016 and 2017. The methodology employed consists of a pre-tested structured questionnaire in the field survey with a random sample of 310 fishers and a focus group discussion was conducted where 20 fishers actively participated. The results revealed that trawling net fishing, dynamite fishing, brush pile fishing, and stake net were being used extensively by the fishers. However, the use of such gears have facilitated to catch more fish and earning a high income. Resultant, the major negative impacts were gearing damages, nets damages and net loss. It is apparently found that, the majority of fisheries (93%) had faith in fisher community organizations (fisheries co-op society, the church/father and women welfare society) in terms of resolving conflicts which were raised by destructive fisheries (wrangling, argument and dissension) while 7% of the respondents have faith in the state to resolve conflicts. The fisheries believed that, the government supports for ﬁshing activities was not well required. Hence, it is strongly concluded that the Regulations should be enforced, as a joint effort between the department of fisheries and community organizations.

Musa sapientum(banana) is widely consumed for its health benefits. Its pulp, peel, leaves, bark as well as whole fruit is used in reducing the risk of chronic diseases of clinical interests. This study aims to find out whether or not there are any distinctive phytochemical constituents present in unripe Musa sapientum peel, pulp and whole fruit hydromethanolic extract using GC-FID techniques and to demonstrate the importance of spectral data in contribution to quality control of its medicinal properties. The UV-VIS profile showed different peaks ranging from 200-900 nm with different absorption respectively. UV-VIS profile showed 9 peaks with three distinct peaks at 240 nm, 400 nm, and 700 nm for both pulp and its peel while 22 peaks with four at 220 nm, 290 nm, 550 nm and 600nm for whole fruit. GC-FID analysis provided characteristic peaks determining the presence and concentration of phytochemical compounds in peel, pulp and whole fruit. Three major phytoconstituents were found almost exclusively in peel, including, Isoflavones, lunamarine and sapogenin while proanthocyanidin and resveratrol were exclusively in its pulp. Spartein, phytates, tannins and isoflavones were absent in whole fruit. The concentration of flavone was minimal. In conclusion, the study justifies the nutritional and medicinal properties of the plant and also represents an additional support to the quality control of their fruit drugs. The presence of the distinctive phytochemicals may be mechanistic link for the specific-efficacy of their physio-pharmacologic and therapeutic activities. Ingested together, these study data suggests that peel, pulp or whole fruit supplementation may be a potential alternative to conventional treatment for various types of infirmities and may confer other potential industrial, nutritional and medicinal advantages.

Authors: Saeaib Nungrutai
Published: July 2021

Objective: To assess the remission rate at postpartum periods of abnormal Pap smears during pregnancy, and to identify the demographic and clinical characteristics of pregnant women with abnormal Pap smears.Material and Methods: Pregnant women, who had antenatal care (ANC) in Songklanagarind Hospital in period of January 2011 to December 2019, were identified retrospectively. Exclusion criteria included inaccessible results of Pap smears during pregnancy and postpartum periods. Medical records of all pregnant women with abnormal Pap smears were reviewed. The association between Pap smear results during pregnancy and postpartum were analyzed by Cramer’s V statistic ranging from 0 to 1, with a 1 indicating perfect association.Results: Of these 8,238 pregnant women had available Pap smear results, 109 (1.3%) women were shown with abnormal results. The most common of abnormality from Pap smears were atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance. In postpartum period, 50 women who had abnormal Pap smear during pregnancy, underwent postpartum follow-up examination at six weeks postpartum, respectively. The majority of results (84.0%) were normal whilst rate of remission occurred in 45 women (90.0%). The association of Pap smears between during pregnancy and postpartum was shown to have a small association (Cramer’s V = 0.2).Conclusion: There was low prevalence of abnormal Pap smear during pregnancy and high remission rate at postpartum. However, health care providers should be aware of cervical cancer screening in all pregnant women, because many women had not undergone cervical cancer screening before pregnancy.

Authors: Nouman Muhammad , Chong Desmond Y.R. , Chatpun Surapong
Published: July 2021

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of customized insole (CMI) variations on plantar pressure in diabetic foot with neuropathy, using finite element analysis (FEA). Material and Methods: A three-dimensional foot model was constructed using FEA to study the peak contact pressure between the foot and the CMI. Nora® Lunalastike, Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA), Amfit® and TPU were chosen for insole materials; and from these eight CMI models were created. The top surface of the tibia and fibula were fixed, and a displacement of 3 mm was exerted from the ground along with upwards Achilles tendon force.Results: The peak contact pressure contour showed that a softer material, CMI-A (E = 1.04 MPa), resulted in a better reduction of peak contact pressure compared to a stiffer material; CMI-D (E = 11 MPa). In addition, it was shown that the use of a single material to fabricate the CMI resulted in higher peak contact pressure; with the exception of CMI-A, in comparison to a dual-layer material of CMI-E and CMI-F. Using FEA, can effectively enhance the insole material selection process, without need of a trial and error practice in a clinical setting.Conclusion: The use of dual materials to fabricate CMIs, with the softer material as a top layer, is beneficial compared to a stiffer top layer material in the reduction of peak plantar pressure for diabetic foot with neuropathy.

Automated prediction of final infarct volume in patients with large-vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke
Authors: Abdelkhaleq Rania , Kim Youngran , Khose Swapnil , Kan Peter , Salazar-Marioni Sergio , Giancardo Luca , Sheth Sunil A.
Published: July 2021

OBJECTIVE

In patients with large-vessel occlusion (LVO) acute ischemic stroke (AIS), determinations of infarct size play a key role in the identification of candidates for endovascular stroke therapy (EVT). An accurate, automated method to quantify infarct at the time of presentation using widely available imaging modalities would improve screening for EVT. Here, the authors aimed to compare the performance of three measures of infarct core at presentation, including an automated method using machine learning.

METHODS

Patients with LVO AIS who underwent successful EVT at four comprehensive stroke centers were identified. Patients were included if they underwent concurrent noncontrast head CT (NCHCT), CT angiography (CTA), and CT perfusion (CTP) with Rapid imaging at the time of presentation, and MRI 24 to 48 hours after reperfusion. NCHCT scans were analyzed using the Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) graded by neuroradiology or neurology expert readers. CTA source images were analyzed using a previously described machine learning model named DeepSymNet (DSN). Final infarct volume (FIV) was determined from diffusion-weighted MRI sequences using manual segmentation. The primary outcome was the performance of the three infarct core measurements (NCHCT-ASPECTS, CTA with DSN, and CTP-Rapid) to predict FIV, which was measured using area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) analysis.

RESULTS

Among 76 patients with LVO AIS who underwent EVT and met inclusion criteria, the median age was 67 years (IQR 54–76 years), 45% were female, and 37% were White. The median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 16 (IQR 12–22), and the median NCHCT-ASPECTS on presentation was 8 (IQR 7–8). The median time between when the patient was last known to be well and arrival was 156 minutes (IQR 73–303 minutes), and between NCHCT/CTA/CTP to groin puncture was 73 minutes (IQR 54–81 minutes). The AUC was obtained at three different cutoff points: 10 ml, 30 ml, and 50 ml FIV. At the 50-ml FIV cutoff, the AUC of ASPECTS was 0.74; of CTP core volume, 0.72; and of DSN, 0.82. Differences in AUCs for the three predictors were not significant for the three FIV cutoffs.

CONCLUSIONS

In a cohort of patients with LVO AIS in whom reperfusion was achieved, determinations of infarct core at presentation by NCHCT-ASPECTS and a machine learning model analyzing CTA source images were equivalent to CTP in predicting FIV. These findings have suggested that the information to accurately predict infarct core in patients with LVO AIS was present in conventional imaging modalities (NCHCT and CTA) and accessible by machine learning methods.
Interhemispheric transcallosal intervenous approach to a pineal region tumor
Authors: Donoho Daniel A. , Aldave Guillermo
Published: July 2021

Pineal region tumors represent a formidable challenge to the neurosurgeon. Choosing the right approach is key to optimizing the extent of resection and minimizing surgical morbidity. In this video, the authors show an interhemispheric transcallosal approach to a pineal region tumor in a 15-year-old boy. The advantage of this corridor over posterior approaches is that it provides a nice view of the tumor plane with the venous complex, especially while dissecting tumor from the anterior aspect of the internal cerebral veins on their vertical path. Thus, this approach represents a safe and effective alternative for selected pineal tumors.

CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE ZIHĀR CONCEPT IN THE QUR'AN AND ITS CONTEXTUALIZATION IN THE CONTEMPORARY ERA
Authors: Saiin Asrizal
Published: July 2021

Penulisan artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui konsep zihār yang sudah ada sebelum Islam datang. Kemudian ingin mengetahui bagaimana al-Qur’an memperbaiki terhadap konsep zihār tersebut. Setelah al-Qur’an memberikan petunjuk terkait konsep zihār yang sebenarnya, kemudian dikontekstualisasikan pada zaman sekarang. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian kepustakaan, penulisannya bersifat kualitatif dengan perspektif ke dalam dan interpretatif. Dari penelitian yang dilakukan, dapat dipahami bahwa penjelasan tentang zihār dipaparkan secara jelas di dalam al-Qur’an surat Al-Mujadalah ayat 1 sampai 4. Zihār adalah ucapan seorang suami kepada isterinya bahwa punggungnya sama dengan punggung ibunya. Asbābun Nuzūl ayat ini adalah karena Khaulah binti Tsa’labah telah dizihār oleh suaminya yang bernama ‘Aus bin Tṡāmit. Kemudian Khaulah melaporkannya kepada Nabi Muhammad. Nabi menjawab bahwa suaminya sudah haram menggauli Khaulah untuk selama-lamanya. Kemudian ayat ini turun untuk membenarkan hukum bagi orang yang menzihār isterinya. Adapun zihār yang sering terjadi pada masa kontemporer sekarang ini sebenarnya tidak dilakukan sebagai bentuk ucapan suami untuk menyamakan istrinya dengan mahramnya, akan tetapi pada dasarnya tidak ada unsur kesengajaan untuk melakukan zihār, karena ucapan yang dilakukan suami yaitu perumpamaan atau penyamaan untuk menyatakan keindahan, kecantikan dan lain sebagainya, bukan untuk menghina atau menyamakan isterinya dengan mahramnya.

The world has been in a pandemic for more than a year. During this time, 155 million people worldwide fell ill, including 3,24 million people who died. In Ukraine, 2,15 million cases were recorded, including 47 thousand deaths. Establishing the biosocial characteristics of patients will make it possible to predict the probability of infection and the subsequent course of COVID-19.

The aim of the study was to establish correlations of social, biological and medical characteristics of patients with severity of COVID-19.

The study was based on information and analytical database, which contained personal data of 294 students of the Pharmacy Department of National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya and members of their families who were ill with COVID-19 for the period March 2020–March 2021. The questionnaire contained 24 questions related to gender and age structure, compliance with quarantine norms, frequency of visits to public places, the size of the work or training team, the course of the disease and the presence of comorbidities, blood groups of patients with COVID-19. The study used sociological and medical-statistical methods.

According to the survey, it can be concluded that the patient with COVID-19 is in the vast majority of cases a woman (75%) with the second blood group (50%), who attends work or study groups (74%) or has family members who attend them (17%).

The patient with severe and very severe course or complications after COVID-19, according to our study, is mainly a woman over 50 years old, with second (44%) or third (31%) group of blood. She is actively attends small social groups or has members families who visit them (74% and 17%, respectively, have concomitant pathologies of the cardiovascular system (59%) or metabolic disorders (22.7%).

Students of the Pharmacy Department of National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya were infected with SARS-CoV-2, are mostly boys and girls aged 19–23 (89%); they are studying in the second (19%), third (36%) and fourth (34%) course, have a second (41%) or the third (31%) blood group.

Published: July 2021

The antioxidant defense system controls and inhibits all stages of free radical formation reactions, which start from their initiation and end with the formation of hydroperoxides and malonic dialdehyde. Disorders of the body's antioxidant defense system can be caused by both endogenous and exogenous factors and can lead to the oxidative stress development. For the purpose of the negative impact minimizing and correction of the existing disorders, both natural and synthetic origin antioxidants are used. Preference is given to antioxidants of natural origin, due to their mild action and minimal side effects.
Shiitake mushrooms are known in China and Japan as a product that has nutritional and medicinal value, for thousands of years. They contain an extremely rich complex of various biologically active substances that can have antioxidant, hepatoprotective effect and influence on the liver diseases pathogenesis.
The aim of the work was to investigate the effect of shiitake mushrooms thick extract on the activity of free radical processes and indicators of the antioxidant system under the conditions of paracetamol hepatitis in rats.
The experimental work was being conducted on the white male rats, which were divided into 10 groups of 6 animals each. Acute hepatitis was simulated by intragastric administration of paracetamol in a dose of 1 250 mg/kg 1 time per day (for 2 days) as a suspension in 2% starch gel solution. We investigated the effect of shiitake mushrooms thick extract on the induced pathology, which was administered intragastrically 2 hours before the paracetamol introduction and daily after the lesion in a dose of 150 mg/kg of the rat’s body weight. Silibor was selected as the comparison drug, which was administered according to the same scheme like the investigated extract in a dose of 20 mg/kg of the animal’s body weight. Euthanasia was conducted on the 3rd, 7th and 10th day after the onset of the lesion. Liver homogenate and animal serum were examined. The effectiveness of shiitake mushrooms thick extract was evaluated under the conditions of the caused pathology by superoxide dismutase and catalase activity, as well as by the content of TBA-active and proteins oxidative modification products.
An increasing of the TBA-active products content and the products of proteins oxidative modification in the serum and liver of animals after the toxic paracetamol exposure testifies to the liver damage and the development of acute hepatitis in rats. Decreased activity of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase and superoxide dismutase was also noted.
An investigation, which was conducted by us, allowed us to reveal a positive effect of shiitake mushrooms thick extract on the activity of lipoperoxidation and oxidative modification of proteins under the conditions of white rats paracetamol lesion.

Smoking is at one of the first places among the factors of lifestyle that negatively affect human health, including indicators of the respiratory, reproductive, digestive and cardiovascular systems. A relationship between smoking and morbidity, prevalence and mortality from cardiovascular diseases (CVD), taking into account the age structure of the Ukrainian population, was a subject of the study. These diseases were selected as an indicator of the negative effects of smoking. Objective: We identified the trends in the variability of cardiovascular pathology among the population under the influence of both active and passive smoking, established the degree of relationship between these indicators and assessed «cause-effect» relationships as well. Materials and methods: The data analysis was performed on the basis of the official state statistics and own retrospective genetic monitoring data. Results: In Ukraine, since 2009, current legislation significantly restricts smoking in public places. Due to the reduction of smoking intensity, the above measures were expected to lead to a reduction in the incidence (mortality) from CVD during a long period after the enactment of legislative changes. The share of smokers in Ukraine (age 12+) for the period 2013-2016 is lower by 17.4% (t=4.6; p<0.01) than for the period 2004-2012. The share of the smokers in Ukraine (age 12+) for the period 2013-2016 is lower by 17.4% (t=4.6; p<0.01) than for the period 2004-2012. At the same time, there was a decrease in the proportion of those who smoke 1-5 or more 20 cigarettes a day. From 2009 to 2016, the incidence of CVD decreased by 23%, and the mortality rate from CVD decreased by 9%. This decrease was due both to a decrease in the number of smokers (almost by 32%) and to a decrease in cigarette sales (at least by 39%). The relationship between a decrease in the proportion of smokers in the population and a decrease in morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease (p<0.05) has been established. Conclusions: The enactment of the Law of Ukraine on Tobacco Control had a positive systemic effect, its impact affected the reduction of morbidity and mortality of the population of Ukraine from cardiovascular diseases, which significantly improved the demographic situation.

Objective: We compared thecontent of homocysteine, hormones and minerals of the blood in the children with different levels of physical development living in the settlements near Chornobyl exclusion zone. Methods: We used instrumental, laboratory, mathematical and statistical methods in the study. Results: 158 children (78 boys and 80 girls) from Polisskyi district, Kyiv oblast were examined within the projectsof the European Commission in Ukraine «Health and Ecological Programmes Connected with Chornobyl Exclusion Zone: Development, Training and Coordination of Health-Related Projects» and Rhône-Alpes Regional Council (France). The studied territory has remained contaminated with radioactive substances after Chornobyl accident until the present day. 137Cs incorporation was shown to affect negatively the physical development (PD) of the children. 137Cs radionuclides cause the disorders of cellular energy, affect negatively thyroid hormone genesis.A significantly high level of free triiodothyronine (T3), parathyroid hormone (PTH) and P was established in adolescents with abnormal low PD in comparison with the children with abnormal high PD. Correlations between the indices of PD, endocrine system and mineral metabolism, registered in a group of examined children, reflect the physiological response of the organism to the cell damage associated with an exposure to 137Cs radionuclides. Comparison of the values of separate metabolic indices with the reference values does not always reflect objectively the severity of metabolic disorders. To identify the metabolic disorders under conditions of constant incorporation of 137Cs radionuclides in a child’s organism, it is necessary to use the information on the associations among several metabolic indices in a group of children living in the territory suffered from the accident at Chornobyl nuclear power plant.

Objective: We aimed to analyze the results of the measurements of the total alpha activity and activity of radon-222 in the water of artesian wells to establish the geographical regions of Ukraine which require a deep attention to the assessment of the radioactivity of the groundwater. Methods: We used empirical, analytical, radiometric, spectrometric methods and method of mathematical statistics in the study. Materials: We carried out a statistical analysis of the results of the measurements of the total alpha activity and the activity of radon-222 in water samples from the artesian wells of 23 administrative regions of Ukraine studied during 2016 - 2020. Results: Analysis of the results of the measurements of the total alpha-activity and radon-222 activity in the water of artesian wells showed their significant heterogeneity for different regions of Ukraine and a connection with the geological features of the area. The statistical distribution of the values of the total alpha activity and the activity of radon-222 in water samples, diagrams of the range of measured values within the regions of Ukraine and between regions are presented in the work; the measurement results were plotted on the hydrogeological map of Ukraine. Conclusion: The values of the total alpha activity and the activity of radon-222 indicate that these indicators are extremely heterogeneous for the territory of Ukraine and reflect the geological features of the area. The results of the analysis can be useful for making recommendations to collective and individual water consumers, well owners regarding the need in more detailed study of the content of natural radionuclides in the sources of water and the use of the appropriate methods of water treatment in cases of non-compliance with the accepted standards. It is shown that it is necessary to develop a strategy for radiation monitoring of the groundwater quality in the country in order to study objectively the existing state and the achievement of an acceptable quality of the water consumed by the population.

Objective: We determined the possible effects of priority chemical environmental carcinogens on the incidence of hormone-dependent tumors and the mechanisms of their effect on the basis of the analysis of literature data and our own research. Results: The performed analysis demonstrates the scanity of the research devoted to the study of chemical carcinogens which are concerned only with the class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), benzo(a)pyrene (BP), atmospheric pollution, emissions from vehicles, the cadmium heavy metal and products of smoking containing these substances. The connection with PAH (BP) and the development of breast, ovarian cancer, cadmium with the development of breast, endometrial, ovarian cancer in women and prostate cancer in men was established. Epidemiological data, combined with experimental ones, suggest a possible contribution of carcinogens into the increase of the incidence of hormone-dependent tumors. At the same time, mechanisms of action of PAH and cadmium on the development of hormone-dependent tumors are unclear. The accumulated experimental and epidemiological data allow us to conclude that the oncological danger of these carcinogens lies in the combination of genotoxic and hormone-mimetic properties; the main mechanisms, involved in the realization of the effect of BP and cadmium, are associated with changes and disorders at different levels of the structural and functional organization of the organism, including the endocrine system, which can lead to the development of tumors. The urgency of the problem of the incidence of hormone-dependent tumors and the potential role of the studied chemical carcinogens as pollutants of the environment of human functions indicate the need to take these circumstances into account when developing and implementing preventive measures.

Pedagogical thought of liberation in the preludes of the Cuban Revolution (1930-1958)
Authors:   Institute of History of Cuba, Conde Rodríguez Alicia
Published: July 2021

The Cuban Revolution of 1959 is preceded by cultural and political projects founded in the Neocolonial Republic that contributed, to a greater or lesser extent, to the formation of a Cuban consciousness and to the fracture of American hegemony that guaranteed the absorption of the country's riches. The pedagogical thought that emerged from public and private school was undoubtedly one of the most significant contri-butions to the revitalization of the spiritual values of the nation that had been enshrined in the wars of independence of the nineteenth cen-tury. In particular, pedagogy whose theoretical and practical bases com-promised the liberation of all the powers and servitudes that constitu-ted, in the Republic, the survival of colonialism. The urgency of con-tinuing the completeness of the picture of the history of education and pedagogy in Cuba is noted. National history cannot be subtracted from the influx of teachers and educators who planted homeland from the classroom and influenced the cultural and political destiny of the Cuban nation. The current debate on Cuban culture should place education as a central issue of society. The scientific and democratic school, as befits the most advanced of our liberating thinking, is still an aspiration today.

The modern socio-economic model of Cuba is a unique example of an attempt to build a welfare state in extremely unfavorable conditions. Over the course of 30 years, since the collapse of the USSR and the so-cialist bloc, Cuban society has undergone several major transfor-mations, the most radical were the reforms of Raul Castro, which began in 2008 and were finally enshrined in the new constitution 11 years lat-er. In this article, the author puts forward a hypothesis that these re-forms are not something qualitatively new, but rather reflect the acceler-ating pace of transformations that were laid back during the "special pe-riod in peacetime", the most critical stage in the adaptation of Cuban society to new foreign economic and foreign policy realities. The author analyzes the key features of the economic policy of the Cuban govern-ment during this period, as well as its specific features in comparison with the neoliberal reforms that became mainstream for the post-soviet states.
The photographic discourse of the funds of the Institute of History of Cuba. An analysis for new uses

Published: July 2021

Photography is the most widely found unwritten textual document in the archives. For this reason, we propose a first approach to the photo-graphic funds of the historical archive of the Institute of History of Cu-ba (IHC) from a comprehensive perspective as a photographic corpus that carries a discourse and not in a fragmented way. For this we will use serialized reading, according to the themes, because it is in the col-lections and archival funds where photography acquires, as an informa-tive medium, true meaning. We will refer only to documentary photog-raphy, which in its testimonial quality preserves the perishable to the collective memory by referring to what happened in concrete reality with a specific time and space, always from the subjectivity of the pho-tographer, which is why it can be used as a historical source of knowledge. Through this work we propose a new institutional use, from the inside archive, that contributes to rescuing the patrimonial values of these funds as one of the essential photographic narratives of the history of Cuba and at the same time perfecting ourselves as public servants. It is not a simple case study, the Institute of History of Cuba is a unique institution in the network of social sciences in Cuba.

The Cuban Revolution meant transformations in all directions (eco-nomic, political, legal and sociocultural) depending on the internal and external contexts that took place. A Revolution; a country for workers, peasants, petty bourgeois and progressive intellectuals, where everyone was to be revolutionary. A Revolution; a policy of interaction that in-cludes the former marginalized sectors and links them with other sec-tors of the society without class distinction, proclaiming them all as equals. A Revolution that needed a new way of thinking, of behaving, of socializing, of living, under the principles of socialism. National cinematography has reflected these incidents ahead of historiography in many of his speeches. His keen gaze reveals the Changes made, dia-logues with them reflecting new codes, patterns and realities. It exposes the scenario in which society develops and the solutions adopted by the government and the people in the face of vicissitudes showing the Rev-olution in its entirety. The paper proposes a look at cinema as a histori-cal source from the analysis of five film that reflect different moments of national development. Namely: Memorias del subdesarrollo, De cierta manera, Páginas del diario de Mauricio, Larga distancia and Sergio y Serguei.
POUM: a long story and a bright moment
Authors:   Institute of World History of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Shubin Alexandr
Published: July 2021

The article is devoted to the history of the Workers Party of Marxist Unity (POUM), which played a prominent role in the events of the Spanish Revolution and the Civil War of 1936-1939. The author traces the history of the anti-Stalinist Marxist-Leninist movement from the 1920s, which developed in the context of regroupings of left-wing radi-cal groups in Catalonia. Formed in 1935, the POUM took an active part in the revolutionary events in Catalonia in 1936-1937. One of the priorities of the POUM was to expose the Stalinist leadership of the Comintern and the USSR. The POUM also generated problems for the pro-Soviet Communists due to its rapprochement with the CNT. The decisive conflict occurred during the May clashes 1937 in Barcelona, which led to the transformation of the republican regime. The May winners launched a campaign of harassment of the POUM, which turned into repression, the victim of which was A. Nin and others. However, the Republican system maintained political pluralism, and an attempt to crack down on the POUM leaders through a Soviet-style process failed. However, POUM did not recover from the blow he re-ceived
The birth of constitutional thinking in Cuba. The first constitutional projects

The emergence of Cuban constitutional thinking as a political culture is directly related to the events in Spain of the early decades of the 19th century, in particular, with the abdication of the Spanish King of Charles IV and the captivity of the legitimate Spanish King Ferdinand VII, the ascension to the Spanish throne of a new dynasty, the libera-tion war of the Spanish people against the French occupation (1808-1814), preparations for the convening of the General Courtes (1808–1810), the drafting and adoption of the 1812 Cadiz Constitution. The participation and legislative activities of Cuban deputies in the discus-sion of the articles of the Cadiz Constitution have become a kind of school and an important experience of constitutional creation. The first constitutional drafts that had emerged on the island at the time showed that Cuba, despite its colonial status, had embraced new liberal politi-cal and philosophical ideas brought from the European centre to the Latin American periphery. The authors of the first constitutional pro-jects were prominent public and political figures of Cuba, philosophers and economists, representatives of the "Creole" Enlightenment - Francisco Arango y Parrenio (1765–1837), Jose Agustin Caballero (1762–1835) and lawyer Joaquin Infante (1775–1827?). The article introduces the reader to the first projects of autonomy for Cuba and the first project of independence.
Sublimasi Politik dalam Aksi Bela Islam 212
Authors: Najib Muhammad Ainun
Published: July 2021

In a certain point, the relationship between religion and state in Indonesia has never been separated from various problems. Political sublimation is a clear example that religious and political affairs in practise have not yet been completed and are predicted to grow in the future. The most recent example is the Action of Defend Islam 212, where if we analyze further, the political interests cannot be separated from it. This paper tries to examine the phenomenon in Jakarta as an example of political sublimation by putting non-political things, in this case religion, into a very politically laden thing. This paper concludes that every event that occurs can have political meaning and purpose. Therefore, a social phenomenon cannot only be seen from one side.
Implicaciones jurídicas del algoritmo: derechos intelectuales y privacidad
Authors: Morales Oñate Diego Alejandro
Published: July 2021

El presente trabajo, pretende reflexionar sobre los algoritmos, su naturaleza jurídica y la importancia para el derecho; elementos piramidales como los datos personales, el big data, el software y la inteligencia artificial que en conjunto constituyen un ecosistema jurídico poshumano, afectando las dinámicas sociales, económicas y jurídicas. A partir de lo enunciado, se generan reflexiones sobre el derecho como parte fundamental del ecosistema. De acuerdo a los objetivos planteados, partiré de las dos principales corrientes del derecho: tanto el ius positivismo como el ius naturalismo. La investigación es de corte documental, teórica y legislativa; por tanto, el método de investigación elegido será fundamentalmente el nominalismo, empero lo holístico servirá de manera transversal. En esa línea, las técnicas empleadas son de estilo documental, a través del análisis de doctrina, normativa y jurisprudencia. Es necesario realizar una reinterpretación, otorgando nuevas visiones al régimen y la dogmática jurídica en su relación con los principios y derechos. Los principios básicos del derecho sirven como orientadores ante los fenómenos tecnológicos y permiten identificar la necesidad de reconocer derechos como el anonimato o la criptografía. El reto consiste en reducir la exclusión y discriminación heredados, por medio de regulaciones algorítmicas reflejo de un nuevo paradigma ético, justo y equilibrado, incluyendo los sectores periféricos que regularmente no son parte de la data formal o el establishment.
PECULIARITIES OF ESTIMATION OF PROPERTY POTENTIAL OF THE ENTERPRISE IN MODERN CONDITIONS

The article is devoted to the problem of assessing the property potential of the enterprise. This process in modern conditions is complicated by a number of circumstances, including: the lack of a single method of assessing the property potential of the enterprise; changes in the content of financial statements, difficult access to reliable information about the real value of the company's assets. The authors emphasize that in the structure of the property potential of the enterprise there are two main components: objective, representing a set of tangible and intangible, labor and financial resources for production; subjective – the ability of employees to use resources to maximum effect. This circumstance creates certain methodological problems in assessing the property potential of the enterprise. Since the property potential of a particular enterprise in market conditions is not an absolute characteristic and significantly depends on the state of the competitive environment, the article proposes a differentiated approach to the choice of methods for assessing property potential depending on the stage of the life cycle of the enterprise and the market in which it operates. The concept of "enterprise life cycle" is based on the dynamics of the effectiveness of its activities over a period of time. The main source of information in this analysis is financial reporting. Profit can be considered as an effective indicator in the analysis of the life cycle of the enterprise. The authors consider the property potential of the enterprise as a set of production (technical) and financial subpotentials and justify the importance of taking into account the peculiarities of the financial statements of the enterprise to increase the level of reliability of evaluation results. The article emphasizes that the technical subpotential of the enterprise deserves special attention in the process of property potential assessment. As indicators that characterize the technical subpotential of the enterprise, the authors propose to use: the coefficient of immobilization, the coefficient of technical equipment and the coefficient of technical potential of the enterprise.
