Changing the Paradigm of Environmental Law in a New Reality
Authors: Koval V. N. , Lozo V. I. , Zenin S. S.
Published: March 2023

This paper is an attempt to build a different paradigm of environmental law in the conditions of the planetary transformation of the Earth in the context of such civilizational paradigms as archaic — modern — postmodern — supermodern with the transition to the sixth technological order. These realities require both traditional and innovative legal regulation. The spectrum of transformations includes the initial parameters of the current order, the hierarchy of structures and the dynamics of their interaction, the level of fluctuation and bifurcation vectors, as well as attractors for exiting the turbulence zone. In order to answer these questions, the authors monitor previous and current environmental and historical trends in the world and the goal setting of what we are building in response to the challenges of the future on the basis of expanding interdisciplinary horizons, a systematic approach, a new range of methodologies and conceptual and categorical apparatus. Through the method of multidimensional didactics, legal topics are associatively connected to the consonant tasks of other subject areas with logical structuring and analysis of isomorphic meanings and semantic models for optimal synthesis of the developed legal systems with ensuring their applied effectiveness and practical application options. Interdisciplinary registers make it possible to build a new ecological and legal doctrine with the correction of the mutual importance of man and nature in the conditions of the global collapse of the capitalist system, based on impoverished natural resources and an increasing ecological catastrophe. Since it is necessary to go to the capital coordinates of the living cosmos for earthly problems to be solved, the «reasonable man» has completed a purely earthly cycle of evolution and must position himself as a «Universal Man» with access to a new ecological political and legal paradigm. These should include formulas (semantic images), integrals (keys of wholeness) and algorithms (methods of action, ways achievements) rule-making matrices.
The doping dilemma is not the only dilemma in sport
Authors: Haugen Kjetil
Published: March 2023

This article investigates training in sports and argues (and demonstrates) that training (game- theoretically) works exactly as doping do. That is, the Nash equilibrium is, under reasonable assumptions, a Prisoner’s Dilemma outcome. Furthermore, several other performance improving categories within sport are examined, and proven to behave similarly. Finally, a link to general competitive economic activity is examined and proven NOT (necessarily) to have similar characteristics. The article also discusses (initially) the Prisoner’s Dilemma game and its lack of a sensible definition. Such a definition is proposed, although this proposition is not considered the main finding in the paper.
The labour market trade-offs of pet ownership
Authors: Maris Robbie , Cameron Michael P.
Published: March 2023

Pets are an important part of many peoples’ lives, and provide mental, physical and emotional benefits. However, the costs of pet ownership have received little attention. We investigate the association between pet ownership and wage income using data from the 2018 General Social Survey. We hypothesise that pet ownership may negatively influence income by lowering labour mobility and positively influence income by garnering valuable psychosocial attributes. We analyse interactions between pet ownership and education, pet ownership and housing tenure, and pet ownership and race to further investigate the potential labour mobility channel. Overall, we find that pet ownership decreases wage income and that these negative effects are larger for groups where mobility effects are likely higher.
Россия как союзник: динамика восприятия в армянском обществе до и после карабахской войны 2020 года
Authors: Атанесян Артур , Мкртичян Артур
Published: March 2023

Несмотря на союзнические, стратегические взаимоотношения России и Армении, обусловленные структурой региональной безопасности, общим досоветским и единым советским прошлым, схожим восприятием внешних угроз на уровне армянских и российских политических элит и обществ, а также их закрепленность системой долгосрочных межгосударственных договоров, определенная негативная динамика в подобное положение дел была внесена еще в конце XX в. вместе с интенсивным влиянием ряда внешних факторов, а также при недостаточности усилий обоих государств по их нейтрализации. В статье представлен анализ ряда внешних и внутренних факторов риска в армяно-российских стратегических взаимоотношениях до и особенно после “Бархатной революции” в Армении весной 2018 г., связанных, в частности, с динамикой региональных взаимоотношений между Россией, Арменией, Азербайджаном и Турцией, приходом к власти в Армении новых политических элит, военно-политической ситуацией. Особое внимание уделяется фактору войны в Нагорном Карабахе осенью 2020 г. в армяно-российских взаимоотношениях, роли РФ в военной и послевоенной ситуации, а также ожиданиям армянского общества в связи с вовлеченностью союзника и в сравнении с другими акторами. Результаты проведенного авторами масштабного исследования демонстрируют и объясняют ощутимые изменения в восприятии образа РФ в Армении до, а также после двух ключевых событий – “Бархатной революции” 2018 г. и войны в Нагорном Карабахе 2020 г. Исследование отчасти подтверждает выдвинутые гипотезы об особенностях восприятия образа РФ среди различных социальных групп, в частности в контексте дихотомии “друзья – враги” в сравнении с рядом других государств, а также в корреляции с политической ориентацией населения, представляющей сторонников и противников постреволюционной власти в Армении. Восприятие армяно-российских двухсторонних отношений сопоставляется с оценкой различными стратами армянского общества перспективности участия Армении в пророссийских и альтернативных военно-политических и экономических союзах. Восприятие образа и роли России в армянском обществе измеряется также в контексте поиска виновных в поражении армянской стороны в 44-дневной войне в Нагорном Карабахе.

Authors: YILMAZ SOYDAN Naciye Tuba , ÇİLİNGİRTÜRK Ahmet , CAN Tuncay
Published: March 2023

Classical transportation models aim to minimize the total costs of homogeneous goods transport from supply points to demand points, taking into account unit transportation costs. They constitute a special case of network models and employ a technique based on linear programming. Suggested in 2015 and one of the early distribution methods, Tuncay Can’s Approximation Method (TCAM) is based on the geometric averages of unit transportation costs, although it is stated in the theorem that other means than geometric can be used. The aim of this study is to compare the total costs of a transportation model by solving a problem using geometric, arithmetic, square, and harmonic means based on TCAM. The coefficients of the transportation model were obtained randomly by simulation, and the method was repeated on the problem according to the different means and the appropriate means determined.

The positive effects of tourism on the economy are gradually increasing. These positive effects force countries to seek new policies to develop the tourism sector further. Turkey has a critical position in the tourism sector, and its main policy in this area is to increase its income. This study purpose of testing the validity of the convergence hypothesis for the countries located in different continents of the world in Turkey's international tourism market. The study covering the years 2000-2020 analyzed eight groups (Africa, America, Asia, Europe, Independent States, OECD, Oceania and non-national) with the data created by the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK). The unit root test developed by Furuoka (2017) is used to test the validity of the convergence hypothesis. As a result of this study found model D to be the most appropriate method among the four proposed alternatives. Accordingly, it is seen that the convergence is not valid for Asia, Europe and Oceania. It is also concluded that convergence is valid for America, OECD, Non-National, Independent States and Africa.

Bu çalışmada çocuk haklarının yerel yönetimlerdeki mali yansımaları bütçe temelinde incelenmiştir. Çocukların gelişiminin sağlıklı olmasının ülkelerin gelişimi üzerinde de oldukça büyük bir katkısı olduğu düşünüldüğünde kamu hizmetlerinin çocuklara duyarlı bir yaklaşım geliştirmesi ülkelerin geleceği açısından pek çok pozitif dışsallığı bünyesinde bulundurmaktadır. Dolaayısıyla bu gelişimin sağlanması öncelikle politil bir irade sonrasında kaynak gereksinimi gerektirmektedir. Yasal metinlerde verilen taahhütlerin, mali yol haritaları olan bütçelere yansıması hiç kuşkusuz çocuk haklarının hayata geçmesi bakımından bir mihenk taşıdır. Bu çalışmada, yerel yönetimlerin sorunları daha net tespit edebileceği gerçeğinden hareketle çocuk hakları Ankara Büyükşehir Belediyesi bütçe belgeleri ışığında incelenmiştir. Bütçe belgelerine göre çocuk hakları gözetilerek politika belgelerine dahil edilmiş ve bütçede pay ayrılmıştır. Buradaki temel problem harcamaların bütçe sistemi gereği net olarak izlenememesidir. Bütçede çocuklara yönelik payların artırılarak, vatandaş bütçe benzeri dokümanlarla yapılan harcamaların gösterilmesi gerekmektedir.
The Practice of Money Politics in Village Head Elections and Its Effect on The Participation Level of Beginner Voters

Published: March 2023

General election is a form of democratic system implementation. This democratic system is carried out to the lowest level in the government system, namely in the general election of village heads. However, in practice, the village head election process is still not optimal due to various forms of fraud. One of which is the practice of money politics. Money politics aims to influence the voters' votes so that they are influenced to choose a candidate who provides them with assistance in the form of money or goods and services. The case of money politics is getting stronger in the run-up to the election, and the targets of money politics are not only voters who have held elections before but also beginner voters. This study aimed to determine the practice of money politics in the election of village heads and its effect on the level of participation of novice voters. The research method used is descriptive quantitative. Data were collected through questionnaires and interviews. The research used data interpretation assisted with statistical applications, SPSS, to analyze the data. The results showed that the money politics practices that occurred in the election of the Village Head in Gampong Gunong Meulinteung were in the form of money that is 64 people (76%), goods that is 46 people (57%), and services that is 47 people (58%). The correlation test results show a value of 0.276, where the influence of money politics on novice voters in the Gampong Gunong Meulinteung Village Head Election in 2019 is 7.6%. It means that it has little effect on novice voters. The rest, amounting to 92.4% of novice voters, chose the Village Head candidate based on other factors such as age, education, and the candidate’s personality. Therefore, all forms of money politics should be eliminated in the general election so that the implementation of democracy in Indonesia can run well. In addition, it is also necessary to provide political education for novice voters, and it is hoped that the village government will form a task force that acts to eradicate cases of election fraud.

Discrimination Against Workers From Slums: What Is its Extent, What Explains It, and How Do We Tackle It?
Authors: Zanoni Wladimir , Acevedo Paloma , Zane Giulia , Hernández Hugo
Published: March 2023

Nearly 120 million people reside in urban slums in Latin America and the Caribbean, where precarious housing and socioeconomic circumstances testify to deep inequality. This paper investigates whether labor market discrimination influences the realities of fewer formal jobs and lower wages with which slum dwellers contend. We implemented a field experiment in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in which we hired human resource recruiters and tasked them with evaluating several pairs of similarly productive job applicants. Out of every 10 applicants, the recruiters chose slum dwellers 4.2 times and other applicants 5.8 times. They also evaluated slum dwellers as less fit for the vacancies and offered them lower wages (nearly 2 percent lower). An intervention showed recruiters the discrimination rate in Buenos Aires, after which they began favoring slum dwellers.
A Combined Approach of Sentimental Analysis Using Machine Learning Techniques
Authors: Gupta Ketan , Jiwani Nasmin , Afreen Neda
Published: March 2023

Sentiment analysis is a vital area of current research. The area of sentiment analysis is extensively used for observing text data and identifying the sentiment element. Every day, e- commerce sites produce a massive amount of text information from customer's comments, reviews, tweets, and feedbacks. One of the most recent technological advances in web development is the emergence of social networking websites. It aids in communication and knowledge gathering. Aspect - based evaluation of this information can help businesses to gain a greater understanding of their consumers' expectations and then shape their plans accordingly. It is difficult to convey the exact sentiment of a review. In this study, we demonstrated an approach that focuses on sentimental aspects of the item's characteristics. Consumer reviews on Amazon and IMDB have been presented and evaluated. We obtained the dataset from the UCI repository, where each analysis's opinion rates are first observed. To get meaningful information from datasets, and to eliminate noise, the pre-processing operations are performed by the system such as tokenization, punctuation, whitespace, special character, and stop-word removal. For the purpose of accurately representing the preprocessed data, feature selection methods such as word frequency-inverse document frequency are utilized (TF–IDF). The customer reviews from three datasets Amazon, Yelp, and IMDB is merged and classification is performed using classifiers such as Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). In last, we provide some insight into the future text classification work.
Być jak Ezechiasz król judzki. Władysław II Jagiełło pod Grunwaldem w świetle kazania De divisione Apostolorum z rękopisu klasztoru Paulinów na Skałce w Krakowie B23 z II połowy XV wieku
Authors: Bracha Krzysztof
Published: March 2023

Rękopis z II połowy XV wieku  proweniencji Katedry Krakowskiej, dziś w zbiorach Biblioteki oo. Paulinów na Skałce w Krakowie, sygnatura B23 (=BSkałka/Kraków B23) zawiera dwie kolekcje Sermones de sanctis anonimowych autorów. W jednym z trzech zachowanych tam kazań De divisione Apostolorum, anonimowy kaznodzieja, na pamiątkę zwycięstwa z 15 lipca 1410 roku sprzymierzonych wojsk polskich króla Władysława II Jagiełło nad wojskiem Zakonu Krzyżackiego pod Grunwaldem i obchodzonego w ten dzień w Królestwie Polskim w XV wieku święta wiktorii grunwaldzkiej, zamieścił krótką historię bitwy.

Długie opowiadanie o bitwie, wcielone do kazania, pełni w nim rolę moralizatorskiego historycznego egzemplum. Kaznodzieja porównywał króla polskiego Władysława II Jagiełłę do pobożnego i prawego króla judzkiego Ezechiasza, a przeciwstawiał niesprawiedliwemu i bezbożnemu królowi asyryjskiemu Sennacherybowi w związku ze starotestamentowym podaniem o wojnie między tymi władcami i zdobyciem Jerozolimy. W ten sposób relacja grunwaldzka polskiego kaznodziei wpisywała się w średniowieczną rocznicę zdobycia miasta przez krzyżowców w czasie I krucjaty dnia 15 lipca 1099 roku. W duchu moralizatorskim tłumaczył, że pokora polskiego władcy musiała zwyciężyć nad pychą Wielkiego Mistrza Ulricha von Jungingena.

Kazania grunwaldzkie wpisują się w zjawisko memoryzacji historii lub ogólniej pamięci historycznej w świetle źródeł nadal słabo w tym kontekście przebadanych, które otwierają dopiero swoje tajemnice i perspektywy heurystyczne.

Wieloparametryczna analiza aktywności enzymów proteolitycznych przy użyciu cytometrii masowej
Authors: Groborz Katarzyna Małgorzata
Published: March 2023

Enzymy proteolityczne, inaczej proteazy, są katalizatorami komórkowymi, które odpowiedzialne są za przyspieszenie reakcji hydrolizy wiązania amidowego w substratach białkowych. Proteazy stanowią kluczowy element w wielu ścieżkach sygnalizacyjnych komórki oraz umożliwiają utrzymanie homeostazy. Aktywność tych enzymów jest kontrolowana przez wewnątrzkomórkowe inhibitory, które uniemożliwiają nadmierną hydrolizę substratów białkowych. W przypadku mutacji genowych bądź chorób prowadzących do zaburzenia działania enzymów proteolitycznych, istnieje możliwość wystąpienia poważnych stanów patofizjologicznych, takich jak m.in. choroby neurodegeneracyjne, nowotworzenie czy zaburzenia krzepnięcia krwi. W związku z powyższym, precyzyjna analiza aktywności poszczególnych proteaz jest niezwykle istotna w ocenie stanu fizjologicznego poszczególnych komórek czy tkanek. Do dziś złotym standardem w tego typu badaniach jest zastosowanie tzw. markerów chemicznych, które nieodwracalnie łączą się z celowanym białkiem bądź grupą białek, tylko i wyłącznie w ich katalitycznie aktywnej formie, umożliwiając ich detekcję w próbkach biologicznych. Głównym problemem w zastosowaniu tych narzędzi chemicznych jest fakt, iż wiele proteaz współpracuje ze sobą w niezwykle złożonych komórkowych sieciach sygnalizacyjnych. W związku z tym, niezbędne jest przeprowadzenie wieloparametrycznej analizy, która ukaże wszystkie badane elementy aktywnie działające w obrębie danego systemu. W niniejszej pracy opisano główne założenia rozprawy doktorskiej dr inż. Katarzyny Groborz, które odnoszą się do projektowania, syntezy oraz walidacji nowego typu narzędzi chemicznych do badania aktywności proteaz przy użyciu cytometrii masowej. Otrzymane narzędzia, nazwane markerami chemicznymi typu TOF (ang. Time Of Flight), posiadają zalety tradycyjnych markerów chemicznych oraz umożliwiają wieloparametryczną analizę złożonych systemów biologicznych przy użyciu nowoczesnej technologii, jaką jest cytometria masowa.

Consequences of Changes in Consumer Bankruptcy Regulations
Authors: Stępińska Joanna
Published: March 2023

The purpose of the article/hypothesis: The aim of the article is to review and present changes to the consumer bankruptcy law and the implications of these changes for individual debtors.

Methodology: The study deals with the effects of bankruptcy proceedings against individual debtors who do not conduct business activity (remission of bankrupt's liabilities, or at least partial repayment of creditors by the debtors) together with the analysis of changes in the law. It will be used to verify the hypothesis that the liberalization of regulations has resulted in an increase in the number of consumer bankruptcy petitions filed, as well as open bankruptcy proceedings conducted against individual debtors.

Results of the research: The results of the analysis presented in the paper support the hypothesis that the liberalization of regulations in the area of consumer bankruptcy has resulted in a significant increase in the number of consumer bankruptcy petitions and open bankruptcy proceedings against individual debtors. It seems that as crucial as creating a possibility for the indebted to return to normality in the form of consumer bankruptcy, it is equally important to take care of the sense of equality in this process. It is vital to be aware that consumer debt relief comes at the expense of other market participants – obviously direct creditors but the general public as well.
Sustainable Finance – Where we are and how we can go further
Authors: Ziemba Marika
Published: March 2023

The purpose of the article/hypothesis: The purpose of the paper is to present the historical background of sustainable development and importance of sustainable finance, and to discuss the most important challenges currently facing sustainable finance. The article verifies the research hypothesis: recent changes (implementing of the EBA Action Plan, the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulations and facing the COVID-19) in the finance sector can help institutions pursue an effective, sustainable development policy.

Methodology: The article contains an extensive literature review of the sustainable development policy (including legal acts).

Results of the research: Sustainable development in the finance sector plays an important role and is currently facing three main challenges: the implementation of the EBA Action Plan, the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation and COVID-19. The EBA Action Plan and SFDRs may initially require financial institutions to change their policy and thus complicate their operations, but later bring only benefits (e.g. transparency). On the other hand, the COVID-19 pandemic is a significant obstacle to the implementation of the sustainable development policy due to countries and entities focused on fighting this threat (including using financial resources). However, it should be mentioned that sustainable development brings long-term effects (including more effective development), thanks to which companies can achieve the desired benefits and overcome the obstacles and crises caused by the pandemic and future crisis.

Un pensamiento constitucionalista y su correspondiente actuación política en la ciudad del Cuzco aparecieron con fuerza a fines de 1812 alrededor de la juramentación e implementación de la Constitución de Cádiz y se manifestó con nitidez, consistencia y coherencia a lo largo de 1813. Sin embargo, los sucesos violentos de fines de 1813 que fueron el preludio" de la revolución de los hermanos Angulo iniciada el 2 de agosto de 1814, pulverizaron e hicieron desaparecer de la escena política a los constitucionalistas que no tuvieron presencia en aquella revolución. El alzamiento de los hermanos Angulo y el subsiguiente establecimiento del Gobierno de la Patria bajo su conducción ha llevado a la generalizada interpretación de que los conflictos políticos previos ocurridos en el Cuzco son un antecedente directo de la revolución de 1814.

Background: Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp] is the second most important pulse crop in India after chickpea. The crop is cultivated during kharif in the arid and semi-arid regions of India. The present study aims to evaluate the genetic variability of the population in small scale trial (SST) through multivariate, principal component and cluster analysis so as to identify superior high yielding early maturing genotypes that fit in cropping systems suitable for the North Western Plain Zone of India. Methods: The plant material comprised of thirty advanced pigeonpea genotypes along with three checks evaluated in small scale trial (SST) during in randomized complete block design with three replications. Result: High GCV and PCV along with high heritability and GA as percent of mean was recorded for the characters PPP and SYPP indicating the preponderance of additive gene action for the expression of these traits. Seed yield per plot (SYPP) was found to be positively correlated with DF (0.30) and HSW (0.37). Path coefficient analysis revealed that PPP, DF and HSW had significant positive and direct effect on seed yield per plot. Principal Component Analysis further substantiated the variability of the population wherein three components explained 65.8% of variation. Cluster analysis classified the 33 genotypes into eight different clusters thereby highlighting sufficient divergence in the population. Cluster VI and VIII showed the highest distance, which is suggestive of prospective utilization of heterosis from their crosses. Two genotypes AH 20-10 and AH 20-23 were identified as the most genetically distant and hence could be forwarded in future breeding programme.

Published: March 2023

Education is a social practice historically placed, and goes beyond all human activity, spreading to the network of relations that takes place in the social fabric, mediated or not by some kind of technology. Online education constitutes a new professional configuration, a possibility of the effective use of teaching and the effective construction of knowledge from another spatial-temporal logic, without losing sight of the objective conditions of social networks. The objective of this study was to assess the emerging reality of online teaching. This study used the literature review method. A content analysis method was used to analyze resources derived from previous literature. The concept of education is in a state of flux at the moment, where both old and new concepts are competing to prove their validity. A progressive educational system can only be achieved through time, research, and more intensive use of innovative practices, supported by the most recent possibilities offered by information and communication technologies.

Published: March 2023

Nowadays the post-Soviet Central Asian countries face a broad range of security challenges and threats.Â  Some of them are systemic in nature, while others occur sporadically. Many challenges and threats are coming from the outside the region, but the countriesâ€™ internal situation and background including historical, economic, social and political aspects. The reaction in the countries on religious-based radicalism and movements like ISIS is an ambiguous.Â Â  The range and level of the threats and challenges depends on various reasons and different in all Central Asian countries. But the case of ISIS is very unprecedented and needs to be under the special analysis through the political and socio-economic dimension in all states. The different ways of development chosen by Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan and different background including borders, political systems, the role of religion and social stability defines the reflection to the threat in different way. Tajilistan and Uzbekistan are in high risk zone. The existing regional and extra regional organizations as CSTO and SCO are important in terms of security strengthening in Central Asia. Analyzing the general social, economic and religion climate picture in terms of absorbing or reflecting religious based extremism and ISIS the real power to stop it can be both effective inter-governmental cooperation and coordination with strong civil society support.Â Â Â Keywords: security, Central Asia, extremism, ISIS;
Analysis of state documents on environmental awareness aspects in Kazakhstan
Authors: Kumar Y.A. , Makhmudova Gulzhan
Published: March 2023

Environmental awareness issues in Kazakhstan are one of the most undermined topics both among the public community and in terms of state rhetoric. In the context of official state documents, so far only two official environmental codes and a national program called Zhasyl Kazakhstan were introduced in the country in 2021. In this regard, the main goal of this paper is to analyze critically the main content of the Environmental Code and the Zhasyl Kazakhstan Program, with a particular focus on sections related to environmental awareness-raising aspects. This paper applied subjective-based content analysis to identify interesting insights on regulatory legal aspects, future research streams, and uncovering of improved legislative frameworks in the context of an environmental awareness issue. Apart from that, five open-ended questions were sent out to the Ministry of Ecology, Geology, and Natural Resources to obtain primary data on the state’s view regarding current previous, recent, and future aspects of environmental awareness issues in the country.
