Парадигма миру та еталони бойових становищ для світу на тлі міжнародно-європейської підтримки України в період військового стану: соціо-політичний дискурс нових порядків
Authors: Шевель Інна Петрівна
Published: December 2023

Глобальною проблемою сьогодення є вторгнення росії до України. Це є актуальною та значущою темою в контексті сучасних міжнародних відносин і конфліктології. Дослідження спрямоване на розгляд впливу міжнародних акторів та інституцій, таких як Європейський Союз, Сполучені Штати Америки і Організація Об’єднаних Націй, НАТО на формування парадигми миру у контексті військового конфлікту в Україні.

Аналізується роль дипломатичних зусиль, міжнародної підтримки і дипломатичних ініціатив у вирішенні конфлікту, а також сприйняття цієї парадигми на рівнях суспільства, української громадськості та зовнішньої міжнародної спільноти.

Мета цієї теми полягає в аналізі розуміння складних взаємодій міжнародних акторів, соціальних процесів, політичних рішень і медійного впливу, які визначають формування парадигми миру під час військового конфлікту в Україні. Вона спрямована на розширення нашого знання про конфліктологію, міжнародні відносини, а також на вагомий внесок у розвиток політичних стратегій, що сприяють миру та стабільності в регіоні.

Важливою частиною методології є застосований методологічний комплекс, який об’єднує кілька підходів: документальний аналіз рішень, договорів, заяв та інших документів міжнародних організацій, країн-учасниць та України щодо конфлікту; емпіричні дослідження та компаративний аналіз у вивченні схожих конфліктів і вирішення їх парадигм миру, щоб зрозуміти унікальні аспекти українського випадку, та аналіз медійного контенту. Дослідження парадигми миру на тлі міжнародно-європейської підтримки України в період військового конфлікту може використовувати різноманітні методи із соціології, політології та інших наукових дисциплін для отримання глибшого розуміння проблеми. До таких методів належать: аналіз документів, опитування і анкетування, інтерв’ю, кейс-стаді у вивченні конкретних випадків або подій, таких як міжнародні перемовини, дипломатичні ініціативи чи важливі рішення, що впливають на конфлікт і мир, кількісний та якісний аналіз обробки статистичних даних.

У висновках підкреслено важливість подальших досліджень і аналізу ролі НАТО, Європейського Союзу, Сполучених Штатів Америки та інших міжнародних акторів у формуванні парадигми миру в Україні під час військового конфлікту. Також важливо відзначити, що питання миру і безпеки в Україні залишаються актуальними та складними і вимагають значних зусиль міжнародної спільноти для досягнення стабільності й миру в регіоні.

Published: December 2023

В дослідженні розглянуто вплив соціальних комунікацій на ефективність адміністративного менеджменту в загальній системі управління підприємством, проаналізовані сучасні підходи до соціальних комунікацій у контексті адміністративного управління. Сформовано визначення поняття «соціальна комунікація» як складової частини сучасного світу, що представляє собою цілеспрямоване спілкування між двома сторонами, має стратегічне значення та спрямоване на досягнення бізнес-цілей. Доведено, що соціальна комунікація присутня майже в усіх аспектах людського існування, відіграє ключову роль у життєдіяльності сучасного суспільства як окремої особи, так і підприємства в цілому. Слід зазначити, що налагоджені комунікації сприяють забезпеченню ефективної діяльності підприємства. Розглянуто види комунікацій, їх вплив та значення в системі адміністративного менеджменту в умовах воєнного стану. Метою статті є дослідження впливу соціальних комунікацій на ефективність адміністративного менеджменту в загальній системі управління підприємством, аналіз сучасних підходів до соціальних комунікацій у контексті адміністративного управління. Комунікація з боку підприємства має стратегічне значення та спрямована на досягнення бізнес-цілей. Особливо це питання актуальне у кризові періоди. Однією з них стала повномасштабна війна в Україні. Крім того, ділові комунікації мають значний вплив на репутацію. Для багатьох керівників та власників бізнесу початок війни у країні був часом виклику. Хтось першим долучився до допомоги бригаді в евакуації в безпечні місця, хтось допоміг родині. Досвід показує, що комунікаційні ініціативи корисні навіть під час війни. Цього не варто боятися, адже таким чином є можливість підняти моральний дух українців та показати приклад іншим підприємствам і людям, як продовжувати соціальне спілкування у важкий для Батьківщини час.

Authors: Chekal Oleksii
Published: December 2023

The purpose of the study: Conduct a paleographic and cultural analysis of Hryhorii Skovoroda’s manuscripts. To find and describe the most characteristic letters and calligraphic methods inherent in the philosopher, and to emphasize the features of the eighteenth-century handwriting in general. To form a paleographic database of letters that can be used to create fonts and designs for modern projects that emphasize the aesthetics of the Ukrainian Baroque. Research methods. Systematization of scientific sources, artistic analysis, synthesis and generalization of the obtained results, method of comparative analysis, creation of a paleographic database and systematization of empirical material based on it. Scientific novelty. For the first time in Ukrainian science, the manuscripts and handwriting of Hryhorii Skovoroda were examined from the point of view of paleographic and calligraphic analysis in the context of multicultural influences of the European and Greek writing traditions. Characteristic features of Hryhorii Skovoroda’s handwriting have been identified, which can be used to determine the attribution of certain texts to the philosopher. Based on this research, practising calligraphers and type designers can create inscriptions and fonts in the style of the Ukrainian philosopher. Conclusions. The individuality of the philosopher’s handwriting reflected not only the philosophical view of the author, his character and aesthetic preferences, but also the multicultural spirit of the late Ukrainian Baroque era. The study of Skovoroda’s calligraphy made it possible to fill the gap in the little-studied field of paleography related to eighteenth-century writing and aesthetics and to give impetus to the representation of these results in contemporary design and typeface projects. However, it is not enough to explore the visual connections between Skovoroda’s handwriting and artistic preferences, it is important to continue the started line of style and use this aesthetic of letters in the modern context of searching of the Ukrainian identity.

Authors: Udris-Borodavko Natalia , Tkachuk Anastasiia
Published: December 2023

The purpose of the article is to identify the main approaches to promoting book products on the market, to determine the principles of a publishing project design system based on this and to apply them to the publication Graphic Design with a Ukrainian Face. Research methods. The empirical method, the method of analysis and synthesis were used. Scientific and journalistic sources devoted to book promotion and the place of design in marketing communication were studied; the design of implemented projects was analyzed in the context of the article’s topic. In addition, the study included a qualitative survey of the project’s target audience and interviewing. Scientific novelty. The article is the first to present a scientifically and empirically grounded development of a book promotion design system based on theoretical recommendations, target audience research, and interviews. It is proved that the book cover is not an independent isolated project. It is designed as part of a design system that provides for the possibility of advertising the book in the future. The project approach to promotional products as a sign system, which is a set of visual codes for reading by representatives of the target audience, has been improved. The implementation of the principle of seriality in the project and the creation of graphic design with Ukrainian identity were further developed. Conclusions. Given the statistics of Ukrainians’ interest in books as a product of consumption, the process of writing a Ukrainian book and publishing it remains relevant, and in the context of russia’s full-scale invasion in Ukraine, it even acquires special public and social significance. At the same time, the system of marketing communication measures to promote new publications on the market is being updated and improved. Among the most relevant today are representation on the website and social networks, online and offline thematic meetings related to the content of books, book presentations and various interactive events with readers. The system of measures to promote a particular book as an intellectual product should be consistent with and even subordinate to the marketing strategies developed by the publishing house where the book is published. A systematic approach to design plays an important role in communication. The design system, which includes both the cover and the communication support, should provide for advertising (uniqueness, expressiveness, effectiveness) and the possibility of varying the elements.
Exploring the Urban Environment in the Educational Design of Design Objects for Public Spaces
Authors: Okonchenko Olha , Okonchenko Іgor
Published: December 2023

The purpose of the study is to find ways of involving students of the “Environmental Design” speciality in solving real problems of open public spaces in cities by means of design during educational process. General scientific methods of theoretical research are applied: analysis and synthesis, generalization and comparison. The novelty of the research. In view of the relevance of creating high-quality public places in the urban environment and the presence of a significant number of problems associated with the placement of design elements in public space, it was considered necessary to include in the educational process of students majoring in Environmental Design the exploration of the real-existing urban environment to improve its quality at the artistic and design level. The task of developing the concept of a multifunctional design object with pronounced artistic and figurative characteristics in the public space has been proposed and substantiated. The article reveals the sequence of basic steps of pre-design research intended to guide students to learn how to analyse (from the point of view of design) the existing state of public spaces in which students can feel themselves as direct users and designers. The basis of this task is the methodology for performing pre-design research and forming conceptual ideas in the field of Environmental Design. The main teaching method is the project method as a set of research problematic methods of creative direction. Conclusions. Such pre-design research can be carried out as part of a course or diploma project; or as a separate task in the process of studying professional disciplines in the field of Environmental Design. Exposing students to the real problems of the urban environment and involving them in solving the issues in the educational process will help prevent unconscious neglect of the context in their future professional careers. As a result of the assignment, students learn to notice and distinguish elements of the urban environment, to be critical of design objects in public space, to approach their design only after a comprehensive pre-design analysis, to understand the importance of visual purity of space and to appreciate the integrity of the existing architectural composition. Presenting to their fellow students the rationale for adopted solutions helps them critically evaluate their ideas and prepare for active participation in public projects to improve the comfort, social attractiveness, and the urban environment safety.

Untuk mengatasi hal ini, pemerintah meluncurkan Program Percepatan dan Perluasan Perlindungan Sosial (P4S) dan Program Kartu Perlindungan Sosial (KPS), yang membantu mengidentifikasi rumah tangga yang membutuhkan bantuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerbitan dan penerimaan Kartu KPS meningkatkan kesejahteraan subjektif rumah tangga miskin, dengan peningkatan setiap poin penerimaan kartu KPS meningkatkan kesejahteraan subjektif sebesar 13%. Ini adalah keuntungan dari kartu KPS, karena program sebelumnya seperti BLT memberikan bantuan dengan lebih akurat kepada rumah tangga yang membutuhkannya. Kartu KPS memastikan bahwa bantuan sosial mencapai mereka yang membutuhkannya, dan hal ini memberikan manfaat bagi masyarakat miskin.
The cytoprotective effect of different doses of Sildenafil on indomethacin-induced gastric mucosal damage in rats:
Authors: Matloub Samir Y. N. , Manna Mohammed J.
Published: December 2023

Background: Sildenafil, a selective phosphodiesterase -5 (PDE-5) inhibitor increases cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) and amplifies many biological actions of nitric oxide (NO) which is an important mediator of gastric mucosal defense ; was evaluated in this study using different doses for its cytoprotective effect on gastric mucosal damage induced by indomethacin . We also evaluated the effect of this drug on NO production, Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis, Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, and Interlukin-4 (IL-4) expression.Methods: The study was performed between April and July 2008 in the Department of Pharmacology / College of Medicine /Baghdad University .It was conducted on 80 adult male albino rats, divided into 8 groups, the first served as a control received the vehicle, the second received indomethacin orally of 60mg/kg .The third and fourth groups were pretreated 30 minutes prior indomethacin with oral sildenafil 10 and 20mg/kg respectively. The other groups were pretreated 30 minutes prior to sildenafil (10and20mg/kg) with intraperitoneal NG-L-Arginine Methyl Ester (L-NAME) 20mg/kg with or without L-Arginine. The rats were then sacrificed after 4 hours and their stomachs were isolated and submitted to macroscopical assessment and for the measurement of the gastric PGE2, MPO, and IL-4.Results: Sildenafil (10 and 20 mg/kg) pretreatment resulted in a significant (p<0.01) decrease in the gastric damage score. The MPO activity was significantly (p<0.01) decreased, while the level of IL-4 was significantly (p<0.01) increased. On the other hand PGE2 level was not changed. L-NAME given 30 min before 10 and 20 mg/kg sildenafil, significantly (p<0.01) abolished the protective effects of sildenafil and also reversed the effects of sildenafil on MPO activity and IL-4 levels. On the other hand addition of L-Arginine resulted in the restoration of the protective effects of sildenafil which was also reflected on the gastric damage score, MPO activity and IL-4 levels.Conclusions: The results demonstrate that the injurious effect of indomethacin can be reduced or ameliorated by sildenafil pretreatment, and that the protective effect of sildenafil againstindomethacin was through an NO dependent pathway.

Authors: Viswanathan A. , kumar V. Senthil , Umamaheswari M. , Janarthanan Vignesh , Jaganathan M.
Published: December 2023

Semantic segmentation has made tremendous progress in recent years. The development of large datasets and the regression of convolutional models have enabled effective training of very large semantic model. Nevertheless, higher capacity indicates a higher computational problem, thus preventing real-time operation. Yet, due to the limited annotations, the models may have relied heavily on the available contexts in the training data, resulting in poor generalization to previously unseen scenes. Therefore, to resolve these issues, Enhanced Gated Pyramid network (GPNet) with Lightweight Attention Module (LAM) is proposed in this paper. GPNet is used for semantic feature extraction and GPNet is enhanced by the pre-trained dilated DetNet and Dense Connection Block (DCB). LAM approach is applied to habitually rescale the different feature channels weights. LAM module can increase the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed methodology. The performance of proposed method is validated using Google Colab environment with different datasets such as Cityscapes, CamVid and ADE20K. The experimental results are compared with various methods like GPNet-ResNet-101 and GPNet-ResNet-50 in terms of IoU, precision, accuracy, F1 score and recall. From the overall analysis cityscapes dataset achieves 94.82% pixel accuracy.
Treatment with 1, 10 Phenanthroline-5-Amine Reduced Amyloid Burden in a Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Authors: Schmued Larry , Maloney Bryan , Schmued Calvert , Lahiri Debomoy K.
Published: December 2023

Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent age-related dementia, and, despite numerous attempts to halt or reverse its devastating progression, no effective therapeutics have yet been confirmed clinically. However, one class of agents that has shown promise is certain metal chelators. Objective: For the novel assessment of the effect of oral administration of 1,10-phenanthroline-5-amine (PAA) on the severity of amyloid plaque load, we used a transgenic (Tg) mouse model with inserted human autosomally dominant (familial) AD genes: amyloid-β protein precursor (AβPP) and tau. Methods: AβPP/Tau transgenic mice that model AD were allotted into one of two groups. The control group received no treatment while the experimental group received PAA in their drinking water starting at 4 months of age. All animals were sacrificed at 1 year of age and their brains were stained with two different markers of amyloid plaques, Amylo-Glo+ and HQ-O. Results: The control animals exhibited numerous dense core plaques throughout the neo- and allo- cortical brain regions. The experimental group treated with PAA, however, showed 62% of the amyloid plaque burden seen in the control group. Conclusions: Oral daily dosing with PAA will significantly reduce the amyloid plaque burden in transgenic mice that model AD. The underlying mechanism for this protection is not fully known; however, one proposed mechanism involves inhibiting the “metal-seeding” of Aβ.

The purpose of the work is to assess the professional risk index of a forest feller, taking into account: ergonomic, psychosocial and hygienic factors and individual parameters, with the development of practical recommendations for reducing diseases of the musculoskeletal system, taking into account the adaptive capabilities of a person.To estimate the occupational risk index, methods were used to determine the danger from the working posture, the influence of psychosocial factors, and individual indicators. The assessment of the index of occupational risk of injury/disease of the musculoskeletal system was determined on a scale from 0 to 1. To determine the adaptation capabilities of forest loggers to resist physical exertion, we used the method proposed by R.M. Baevsky.A procedure has been developed for the assessment of the occupational risk index during the performance of various logging operations of a forest logger based on the assessment of ergonomic posture, the influence of psychosocial, hygienic factors, and individual parameters. It was determined that the work related to the technological process of harvesting wood and cleaning trees from branches and knots has the highest degree of risk. It is shown that the greatest influence on the value of the occupational risk index is caused by an uncomfortable ergonomic posture and a psychosocial factor, while when whipping whips and their loading – psychosocial and hygienic factors. It has been established that the greatest influence on the adaptive capabilities of a forest feller has an uncomfortable working posture and a psychosocial factor.The relationship between adaptation possibilities and the discomfort of the working posture, psychosocial and hygienic factors has been established.It is shown that for the felling of trees and sawed off branches, it is necessary to provide workers with high adaptability, while it is desirable to involve workers with low adaptability in the trawling of whips and their load.

This work is devoted to the study of the impact of military actions on the environment of Ukraine based on the materials of remote sensing of the Earth. The authors proposed a methodology for determining the scale of fires and the degree of damage to nature conservation objects using the example of the Black Sea Biosphere Reserve. In particular, fires are identified with the help of the FIRMS service, which subsequently allows establishing the causes of their occurrence and predicting their direction of spread, as well as estimating the affected areas. The paper presents the results of satellite monitoring of the determination of thermal anomaly centers, their dynamics and extent of damage; a study of the areas flooded due to the lowering of the reservoir is presented; an approach to comprehensive monitoring of the disturbance of the state of ecosystems of nature-protected territories of Ukraine is proposed. The research was conducted in the period from February 2022 to February 2023. Temperature activity was determined in the Black Sea Biosphere Reserve and its adjacent territories, and areas of disturbance of the surface layer of the soil as a result of military operations were identified. The facts of fires, the presence of enemy military equipment, the construction of various fortification structures (trenches, trenches, shelters for equipment), the presence of firing positions, the location and movement of automobiles and other large vehicles have been proven. The proposed research can be used to monitor and document environmental crimes caused by military actions. The obtained results provide information to state authorities for decision-making regarding the preservation and restoration of valuable natural reserves and objects, and also allows forecasting changes in environmental risk due to military actions.
Unveiling the Interplay of Klotho Protein, Chemotherapy-Induced Klotho Protein Deficiency, and the Pivotal Role of GLP-1 Agonists like Ozempic in Cancer Survivorship Patient Survival Rate after Chemotherapy Treatment
Authors: Akl Maher M. , Ahmed Amr
Published: December 2023

Cancer, a pervasive health challenge globally, prompts aggressive treatment measures, with chemotherapy as a primary approach targeting uncontrolled cell growth. While effective against tumors, chemotherapeutic agents, especially alkylating agents, antimetabolites, and other classes, introduce collateral damage to healthy tissues, notably the kidneys. This article explores the intricate impact of chemotherapy on renal proteins and enzymes, particularly the Klotho protein, a key player in aging and longevity. Alkylating agents induce renal toxicity through oxidative stress, affecting Klotho synthesis and antioxidant defenses. Antimetabolites disrupt DNA synthesis, potentially impairing renal function. Antitumor antibiotics, topoisomerase inhibitors, mitotic inhibitors, and hormone therapies each contribute to nephrotoxicity. As Klotho deficiency emerges as a critical factor in the shortened lifespan of cancer patients, the potential role of GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic in stimulating Klotho production is discussed. This dual-action approach could mitigate chemotherapy-induced nephrotoxicity, offering a novel strategy for enhancing the well-being and lifespan of cancer patients.

Published: December 2023

The importance of pesticides in the economy especially in agriculture, cannot be over-emphasized. It is therefore very crucial to uphold and maintain the efficacy of these pest control agents. This study seeks to explore the effect of climate variables on the potency of pesticides. Climate change has emerged as one of the most significant global challenges, disrupting weather patterns and altering ecosystems. These changes pose serious implications for pest dynamics, distribution, and behavior, thereby directly influencing the performance of pesticides. This study analyzed relevant articles related to climate change and pesticides systematically sourced from credible reference databases for a period of 21 years from 2002 to 2023, using the most suitable keywords. Recent scientific research and empirical evidence, analyzing the effects of rising temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, and changing humidity levels on pests and their interactions with pesticide applications were studied. The relevant impact of these effects is seen in reduced agricultural yield, loss of livelihood and source of income, infestation and destruction of agricultural crops, and reduced living standard in the society amongst others. The projected changes include; the development of adaptive agricultural practices and integration of climate-resilient pest management strategies that could improve the efficacy of pesticides. This involves exploring the potential of eco-friendly and biologically-based pest control approaches to reduce the destructive impacts that arise from climate change. These sustainable practices and novel technologies aimed at improving pest control under changing climatic conditions must be encouraged and upheld tenaciously.

The Choice of Breeding Objectives and Selection Criteria Decided by Breeders of Various Goat Breeds and Factors Influencing Them
Authors: Tabbaa Mohammad , Baker Maher M , Barakeh Faisal S
Published: December 2023

Knowledge of breeding objectives and selection criteria is essential for a successful breeding program, a questionnaire was prepared, and distributed among breeders of various goat breeds in Abu-Dhabi Emirate to explore their breeding objectives and selection criteria. A total of 293 different goat breeds herds with a total of 49911 heads of goats were investigated. The results suggest that goat breeders in UAE are breeding goats mainly for meat production (94%), adaptability to environment (40%), and disease resistance (35%). Only few breeders considered milk production (21%) as breeding objective. Factors influenced breeders’ decision on breeding objectives were breed of goat, region, property type, and herd size. Nine out of the twelve doe selection criteria chosen by goat breeders are considered objective selection criteria and only three are subjective selection criteria. Growth rate, fertility, twining ability and body morphology selection criteria were considered the most important on the average by Emirati goat breeders with a medium proportion (60-65%). Goat breeders have put slightly more pressure on buck subjective criteria. The most important buck selection criteria was growth rate (80%) and body morphology selection criterion (76%) then fertility, buck being one of twins and breed purity with averages in 50-55%. Although; increasing meat production was the main breeding objective, an effective breeding program must incorporate different selection criteria for does and bucks considering differences in breeds, regions, property types and herd sizes.

Lifting and transporting machines (PTM) are one of the important equipment for the mechanization of work in various spheres of the national economy. In addition to the multi-rescue system, the cargo lifting mechanism also includes a winch. Winches with one drum, which have standard parameters - traction force from 3.2 to 125 KN at rope speed from 0.5 to 0.1 m/s, are most often used in PTM. Such winches include a two-stage gear reducer that connects the electric motor with the drum. Such a winch drive scheme is quite large and has considerable weight. One of the areas that will help reduce these indicators is the use of planetary gearboxes. They allow the use of winches in which the electric motor and gearbox are coaxial, and the planetary gearbox itself can be mounted in the drum. Such a drive scheme of the load lifting mechanism allows to reduce the dimensions and weight of the winch. The paper considers the calculation and compares the transmission ratios of planetary gears, which are used and can be used in lifting and transporting machines to reduce the dimensions and weight of cargo lifting mechanisms. Schemes of simple and closed planetary gears, as well as a scheme with three central gears, are given. The scheme of the planetary transmission with free gear wheels is considered. The presence of internal gears and several satellites makes planetary gears compact and light in weight. AII transmission with two internal gears and a free carrier allows to obtain significant transmission ratios with a small number of gears. Schemes of planetary gears with free gears allow you to change the angular speed of the output shaft.
The origins and establishment of the forced labor system in the Third Reich: on the materials of Poland
Authors:   «Horlivka Institute for Foreign Languages» of the State Higher Educational Institution «Donbas State Pedagogical University», Kontsur Mykola
Published: December 2023

The purpose of the study is to show the main stages of the formation of the German system of forced labor in the second half of the 19th and the fi rst half of the 20th centuries, which is closely related to the territory of Poland and the Polish population, based on the work of pred- ecessors and the available source base. Th e research methodology is based on the principles of historicism, objectivity, and systematicity. Th e scientifi c novelty lies in the fact that, for the fi rst time in Ukrainian historiography, an attempt has been made to trace the stages of transformation of economic relations between neighboring nations from mutually benefi cial to the mass enslave- ment and exploitation of the Polish population by the German regimes. Conclusions. At the end of the XIX – at the beginning of the XX century in Polish-German economic relations, the use of Polish seasonal workers in agriculture was of great importance, which became the basis for the formation of the system of forced labor in Germany. Th e Kaiser’s government was forced to turn to it due to the overexertion of the country’s forces in the fi ght against an enemy whose forces and resources greatly exceeded those of Germany. In the conditions of a protracted bloody war, the practice of forced labor of foreign workers proved to be eff ective, especially in the fi eld of agriculture, and provided an opportunity to control the occupied territories and their population, cementing the cynical idea that forced labor was profi table only under the conditions of its mass and the ap- plication of totalitarian measures during its organization. Kaiser Germany laid the foundation for the system of forced labor of foreign workers and the policy of segregation based on nationality and state affi liation, which later became the foundation of the economy and ideology of the Th ird Reich. During the Second World War, the policy of the German occupiers varied depending on the country or region of enslavement, and it also changed at diff erent stages of the war. On the territory of Poland, the attempt of the Th ird Reich to create loyal authorities with the assistance of the Polish right-wing forces proved unsuccessful due to their small number and disunity. Th e occupiers man- aged to organize the use of Poland’s economy and human resources mainly by relying on national minorities and the experience of the Kaiser’s government, which was improved and supplemented by the idea of racial superiority at the legislative level.

The purpose of the article is to study the process of infl uence of the Islamic reli- gious factor on the domestic and foreign policy of modern Turkey. Th e methodological foun- dations of the study are the principles of historicism, objectivity, and systematicity, as well as various methods, among which the main one is the problem-chronological one. Th e methods of content analysis, expert evaluation, etc. were also used. Th e scientifi c novelty lies in an attempt to comprehensively study the Turkish model of Islamism and its impact on Turkey’s domestic and foreign policy in the early twenty-fi rst century. Conclusions. Today, the Turkish leadership is actively using the Islamic religious factor in both domestic and foreign policy. In particular, in domestic politics, Islam of the «Turkish model» is seen as a means of consolidation that will be able to unite representatives of diff erent confessional trends in the country. Th is is also facilitated by the secular nature of the Turkish state as defi ned by the country’s Constitution, which allows it to be a national mediator and not be drawn into interfaith disputes. All of this has allowed for the formation of a special type of «Turkish Islam», which is distinguished by its religious impar- tiality, moderation, and religious tolerance. In its foreign policy, Turkey’s leadership uses the Islamic religious factor to achieve its own geopolitical goals in the Middle East, aimed at turning Turkey into a regional leader. However, as the political practice has shown, Arab countries are not yet ready to recognize Turkey’s leader- ship as the only center of infl uence, due to the powerful religious positioning of Saudi Arabia and Iran. In addition, Turkey’s attempts to resolve the Sunni-Shiite confl ict on the basis of the neo-Ottomanism doctrine have not yet been successful.

Serangan awal air laut pada geopolimer terjadi pada permukaannya dan air laut cenderung menurunkan kekuatan mekanis geopolimer, oleh karena itu daya tahan geopolimer terhadap paparan air laut perlu dikaji. Studi ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki daya tahan geopolimer berbasis nanosilika dan Cellulose Nanocrystals (CNCs) yang terpapar air laut dalam waktu singkat. Metode yang digunakan adalah dengan perendaman selama 14 dan 30 hari yang kemudian diakukan pengujian kuat tekan. Pengujian mikrostruktur yang dilakukan berupa Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) dan X-Ray Difraction (XRD). Komposisi nanosilika dan CNCs yang digunakan masing-masing sebesar 4% dan 1%. Nilai kuat tekan geopolimer sebelum diberikan perlakuan adalah 22.20 MPa. Untuk mengetahui kehilangan alkalinitas dari geopolimer yang terpapar air laut dilakukan dengan penyemprotan larutan phenolphthalein. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada tampilan visual terjadi serangan ion klorida yang menyebabkan kerusakan pada permukaan pasta geopolimer. Penetrasi klorida pada pasta geopolimer menyebabkan pH turun dan menyerang pori-pori. Berat geopolimer terus menurun seiring dengan bertambahnya waktu paparan terhadap air laut. Geopolimer berbasis nanosilika dan CNCs mampu memperlambat penurunan kuat tekan. Hal ini disebabkan karena serangan klorida dan pembentukan garam melalui sodium sulfate dan magnesium chloride (Na2SO4 MgCl2) yang ada didalam air laut. Retak, spalling dan deformasi yang menjadi ciri serangan sulfat dari air laut. Geopolimer berbasis nanosilika dan CNCs terbukti mampu memperlambat pengaruh buruk dari air laut dan layak diaplikasikan di bidang konstruksi bangunan. Â
