Estudio de variabilidad de la frecuencia cardiaca en pacientes con sospecha de fallas autonómicas. Utilización del Holter y el Diagrama de Poincare
Authors: Escobar Tintel Andrés Avelino
Published: June 2024

El estudio de la regularidad de la Frecuencia Cardiaca, a través del Holter de 24 horas se hace desde la década de los años 60 y es bastante efectivo. Sin embargo, desde los años noventa comenzaron a efectuarse estudios cortos de Holter en pacientes sospechados de tener fallas autonómicas de control de la frecuencia cardiaca, especialmente en pacientes con comorbilidades tales como Hipertensión, Diabetes Mellitus, Aterosclerosis etc. De aquí la importancia de realizar un test de Holter de diez minutos, divididos en dos tiempos de 5 minutos, primero en decúbito dorsal y luego en bipedestación, especialmente en pacientes de más de cincuenta años o con comorbilidades presentes. Los resultados se presentan luego en gráficos de Poincare, que incluye el programa operativo del dispositivo, que permite un vistazo de la elipse con sus dos ejes, que representan las acciones simpáticas y parasimpáticas sobre la frecuencia cardiaca. Una variabilidad anormal de la frecuencia cardiaca debe ser luego estudiada más profundamente a fin de reafirmar el diagnóstico y ulteriores pasos en el tratamiento.
Rebelión pastusa de 1823: realismo popular y agencia indígena en tiempos de Independencia
Authors: Argoti Gómez Juan Camilo
Published: June 2024

En contraste con la historia patria, que frente a la emergente identidad nacional, caracteriza a cualquier estudio sobre la monarquía en tiempos de independencia como desleal o equívoca. La etnohistoria, reconoce a las poblaciones marginadas por la (H)istoria, como agentes activos, dinámicos y multivocales. Durante el periodo de 1811-1824, la provincia de los Pastos se alzó en armas contra el proyecto independentista-repúblicano. En específico, la rebelión pastusa de 1823, comandada por el Coronel Agustin Agualongo y ejecutada desde los sectores populares, que en pro de sus intereses culturales, políticos y económicos se aliaron estratégicamente a la causa monárquica. Esto creó un realismo popular frente al proyecto repúblicano, que más allá de los preceptos reduccionistas del hispanismo y nacionalismo contemporáneo, evidencia a las poblaciones indígenas y afro de Pasto como agentes activos e insurgentes, y reformulan los paradigmas binarios de las guerras de independencia.

This study shows the importance of language lessons in improving linguistic skills, for the learning and the mastery of the Arabic language, namely: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The study also clarifies the purpose of language lesson class, which is achieving several competencies for the learner to enable him/her to communicate effectively. The study shows as well some difficulties of teaching methodologies of the language lesson and its evaluation in middle schools in Morocco, through the adoption of the analytical descriptive approach in analyzing the problem under study. And through the adoption of the interpretive inference approach in stating the reasons and in revealing the challenges, which hinder the success of the teaching and the evaluation processes. The study concludes that the teaching methods of language lessons are inadequate. The time frame of its teaching is short. The way it is evaluated has several gaps. Also, the language class is irrelevant to the teaching reality and to the pedagogical condition of the teacher.

Published: June 2024

Computer simulations using ever-increasing computing power and machine learning techniques allow advanced molecular modelling, molecular dynamics simulations and studies of intermolecular interactions. However, due to the complexity of biological systems and chemical processes at the molecular level, their accurate representation using classical computer models and techniques has faced a number of significant limitations for many years. A new and promising direction for the development of computational science and its potential applications in biochemistry is quantum computing and its integration with classical high-performance supercomputing systems. This article responds to the growing interest in the use of available quantum computers in exemplary applications. In this paper, we aim to provide an overview of the basic notions involved in the development of quantum algorithms and simulations related to issues at the interface of quantum chemistry and biochemistry. In addition, the article introduces the basic principles of performing simulations using the state-of-the-art quantum computers in the era of Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ). Experimental results of the classical-quantum algorithm Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) for example molecules  H2  and CH+ are also presented. Despite the many shortcomings of currently available quantum computers, the analysed VQE algorithm proved to be effective in approximating the ground state of molecules using a minimal functional basis.
The Beneficial Effect of Exercise and Vitamin D Supplementation on Comorbidities Associated with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Authors: Canbay Gökçek Özden , Özkeskin Mehmet , Başer Miray
Published: June 2024

Objective: A multisystem chronic autoimmune illness with recurrent and relapsing episodes that can affect the locomotor system as well as the liver and kidneys is known as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Vitamin D deficiency is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of SLE. Therefore, our primary aim in this literature review is to determine the role of vitamin D deficiency on SLE symptoms. Our secondary aim is to explain the benefits of exercise on SLE-related comorbidities.
Method: A comprehensive literature search on SLE symptoms, biochemistry, and pathophysiology was performed via Google Scholar. The effect of exercise on SLE comorbidities was investigated.
Results: Some studies suggest that SLE is caused by environmental and genetic factors. The exact cause of the disease is still unknown, but there is evidence that vitamin D deficiency is associated with SLE symptoms. In addition to drug treatment for locomotor system involvement in SLE patients, physiotherapy applications are also included. In this study, the positive effects of exercise in SLE patients on pain, fatigue, and sleep problems caused by both disease-related and side effects of pharmacological applications used in treatment are reported. Information about the effects of vitamin D deficiency in SLE and how exercise contributes to the improvement of these symptoms is presented.
Conclusion: Vitamin D deficiency in the symptoms seen in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus cannot be corrected by vitamin D supplementation alone. At this point, exercise provides possible benefits in correcting vitamin D deficiency. Therefore, exercise has positive effects on SLE comorbidities. Future studies should be planned with the aim of establishing a suitable exercise prescription for SLE.

Authors:   Head of the Department of Criminal Procedure and Criminalistics of the Kazan Institute (Branch) of the All-Russian State University of Justice, Podolny Nikolay A.
Published: June 2024

Reasonableness is a requirement imposed on criminal proceedings, which has a well-defi ned specifi city in relation to the timing of obtaining an expert opinion when verifying a crime report. This specifi city refl ects the quality of the inspection carried out and the decision taken on its basis to initiate a criminal case or refuse to initiate it. The reasonableness of the deadline for obtaining an expert opinion is also a means, the use of which helps to avoid red tape and accelerate the achievement of justice in making procedural decisions. For more eff ective use of this tool, it is necessary to know its nature and features that distinguish it from other means by which it is possible to ensure the quality of verifi cation of a crime report.

Special Aspects of the Contemporary Japanese Penitentiary System
Authors:   Chief Research Scientist of the National Research Institute of the Ministry of Interior of the Russian Federation, LL.D., Professor, Kobets Petr N.
Published: June 2024

The purpose of the study was to analyze the characteristic features of the modern Japanese penitentiary system. The author came to the conclusion that there are serious differences between the Japanese system and similar foreign ones, noting that it has a more severe regime of detention, superbly organized highly productive work activities of convicts, and succeeds in the correction and resocialization of persons in prison. At the same time, the Japanese state policy on the execution of criminal penalties enjoys considerable respect, authority, and is also widely supported by the entire public. The briefly outlined positive opti of the Japanese penitentiary policy, implemented by penitentiary institutions, after a comprehensive study, can be used in the Russian Federation, since the use of various social institutions, both state and public, will only increase the preventive effect and contribute to the re-education of convicts.

Strah pred kriminaliteto je pomembna tema raziskovanja v zadnjih 50 letih. Zaskrbljenost zaradi kriminalitete je povezana s spremembo navad prebivalcev, kar lahko vodi do povišanja kriminalitete v soseski. S strahom pred kriminaliteto so povezani številni dejavniki, ki pa se lahko v urbanih in ruralnih okoljih razlikujejo. Raziskava o varnosti v lokalnih skupnostih v letu 2022 je vključevala merjenje nekaterih dejavnikov, ki so se že v predhodnih raziskavah izkazali kot pomembno povezani z občutkom varnosti. Zanimalo nas je, v kolikšni meri so ugotovitve podobne ugotovitvam predhodnih študij in kakšne so razlike v dejavnikih, povezanih z občutkom varnosti, med ruralnimi, primestnimi in mestnimi okolji. Naša raziskava potrdi ugotovitve o močni vlogi socialne kohezije pri občutku varnosti kot tudi vlogi spola in izobrazbe, nakazujejo pa se razlike v povezanosti demografskih dejavnikov, kazalnikov družbenega in fizičnega nereda, heterogenosti prebivalstva ter prisotnosti premoženjske kriminalitete z občutkom varnosti med ruralnimi, polurbanimi, urbanimi okolji v Sloveniji.
Instrumenty typu ETC jako nowe instrumenty finansowe na GPW w Warszawie – wyzwania regulacyjne w aspekcie porównawczym
Authors: Opoka Marcin
Published: June 2024

Cel artykułu. W niniejszym artykule podjęto tematykę instrumentów finansowych typu ETC (ang. Exchange-Traded Commodities). Przyczynkiem do tej analizy było wprowadzenie pierwszego takiego instrumentu do obrotu na Giełdzie Papierów Wartościowych w Warszawie w sierpniu 2023 r., co stanowiło znaczący krok w ewolucji rynku kapitałowego w Polsce. Koncentrując się na regulacjach wprowadzonych przez GPW w Warszawie, przeanalizowano adekwatność środków mających na celu ochronę nabywców instrumentów typu ETC. Analiza ta objęła również perspektywę i rynek europejski, dostarczając porównawczego spojrzenia na krajowe rozwiązania. Przeanalizowano konstrukcję instrumentu, ramy regulacyjne, genezę oraz zasady działania ETC, rozróżniając te instrumenty od funduszy typu ETF. Pomimo podobieństw, instrumenty typu ETC różnią się bowiem znacznie pod względem struktury i charakteru prawnego od funduszy typu ETF. W szczególności nie są one zharmonizowane na poziomie europejskim, co wpływa na ochronę inwestorów. Ta różnica skłania do postawienia pytań dotyczących skuteczności istniejących regulacji dla zapewnienia bezpieczeństwa inwestorów i pewności obrotu, nie tylko na gruncie Polski. Metoda badawcza. Aby odpowiedzieć na te pytania, w podjętej analizie dokonano przeglądu literatury, analizy aktów prawnych oraz danych rynkowych. Zastosowano analizę porównawczą, aby zbadać funkcję w obrocie, konstrukcję oraz aspekty regulacyjne funkcjonowania instrumentów typu ETC w porównaniu do ETF-ów, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem mechanizmów ochrony inwestorów. Dodatkowo, porównano regulacje obowiązujące w zakresie instrumentów typu ETC na kluczowych giełdach europejskich w odniesieniu do rozwiązań wdrożonych przez Giełdę Papierów Wartościowych w Warszawie. Wyniki badań. Przeprowadzona analiza prowadzi do wniosku, że brak zharmonizowanych regulacji dla instrumentów typu ETC stanowi istotne wyzwanie dla inwestorów. W praktyce są oni, niejednokrotnie w kluczowych aspektach, chronieni na poziomie zbliżonym do inwestorów w ETF-y. Nie są to jednak uniwersalne i zagwarantowane regulacyjnie standardy, na których inwestorzy mogliby polegać. Rekomendowane jest zatem ujednolicenie terminologiczne instrumentów pasywnego inwestowania, które powinno pociągać za sobą harmonizację podstawowych zasad konstrukcji danych instrumentów i ich obrotu. W odniesieniu do instrumentów typu ETC na GPW w Warszawie, wprowadzone rozwiązania przewyższają pod względem ochrony inwestorów odpowiedniki obserwowane na niektórych innych rynkach UE. Niemniej jednak, postulowane są dalsze zmiany regulaminowe, który mogłaby przyczynić się do dalszego rozwoju rynku instrumentów typu ETC w Polsce.
Peru 2020-2021: Household Income, Consumption, and Savings during the Pandemic
Authors: Francke Pedro , Benites Garnique Josué
Published: June 2024

Peru is among the countries hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, experiencing significant losses in terms of lives and well-being. This study examines the income, expenditure, and savings patterns of Peruvian households amidst the pandemic, with a focus on rural/urban and formal/informal differences. Additionally, we analyze shifts in consumption, particularly regarding food and health expenditures. Utilizing data from the National Household Survey (ENAHO), we conducted a multi-period analysis at the quarterly level spanning 2019-2021, with the prepandemic quarter as the reference point. Our findings reveal substantial disparities between rural and urban areas, as well as within these segments based on the formal or informal employment status of household heads, regarding income, expenses, savings, and shifts in consumption patterns. While all segments experienced income reductions, rural households recovered swiftly but maintained reduced food consumption. Formal workers experienced less income loss and did not dissave, whereas urban informal workers were most affected in terms of income and food deprivation. Finally, we discuss how these findings can inform public policy discussions in Peru, particularly related to social protection.
Climate Risk Stress Test: Impact of Climate Change on the Peruvian Financial System
Authors: Romero Daniel , Salinas Juan Carlos , Talledo Jacqueline
Published: June 2024

We develop the first climate risk Stress Test for the Peruvian financial system following a topdown approach. Focusing on the microeconomic channel, we evaluate how heavy rainfall and droughts, under a scenario of pure physical risk, will marginally affect the probability of default (PD) of borrowers by 2050. Using information from the Credit Registry, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and CMIP6 precipitation projections (37 modeling groups), we calibrate the marginal impacts differentiating by economic sector and geographical location. We find that, on average, by December 2050, the probability of default of the Peruvian financial system would increase by 4.9% with respect to December 2020. By geographic area, borrowers located on the northern coast (Piura, Lambayeque) and the southern highlands (Ayacucho, Cusco) would be negatively affected by heavy rainfall, while the rainforest (Madre de Dios, Ucayali) would be negatively affected by droughts. Moreover, the economic sectors affected by heavy rainfall or droughts would be agriculture, commerce, and transportation & communications.
Savings, Investment, Terms of Trade, and Sustainability of the Internal Approach: 1993 - 2019
Authors: Villacampa Portuguez Pablo Lorenzo
Published: June 2024

Welfare measures and their assessment involve a set of indicators that, as economic thought evolves, are subject to critique. Nonetheless, the ultimate debate focuses on the quality of life and the conditions fostered by each economy. Using data from the period 1993 to 2019, this paper presents an analysis of the current account and terms of trade, highlighting the significance of these variables, as they encompass important flows and contribute to shaping market conditions and the resulting benefits. The study employs both Vector Error Correction (VECM) and Structural Vector Error Correction (SVECM) models to explore the interplay between external dynamics and their effects on the economy. The findings reveal that an export price shock has an expansive effect on investment, yet its impact on savings becomes marginally significant over time. Unexpected shocks on investment are roughly 38% reliant on external factors, of which an average of 32% is attributable to export prices, underscoring the tight correlation between investment and international market dynamics. Notably, the results indicate that external dynamics primarily exert short-term effects. Consequently, despite periods of robust growth, reduced unemployment, and poverty reduction, these indicators have not proven to be sustainable in Peru.
An Assessment of Indian Livestock Owners’ Selective Management Practices for Risk Amelioration of Obstructive Urolithiasis in Water Buffalo Male Calves
Authors: Khanna Sujoy , Potliya Sandeep , Ganguly Anita , Singh Harpreet , Maharana B.R. , Singh Davinder , Gowane G.R.
Published: June 2024

Background: Obstructive urolithiasis is a life-threatening and painful disease in both the sexes of dairy animals. In water buffaloes also, both sexes can be affected, but formation of urinary tract calculi, leading to blockages are primarily observed in male calves. Methods: The present study was carried on 105 uncastrated water buffalo male calves suffering from obstructive urolithiasis. Detailed management and housing practices followed by calf owners were recorded after confirmation of diagnosis. A similar number (n. 105) of healthy uncastrated buffalo male calves during this period were also included in this study as control. Result: Practice of feeding calves with rations high in cereal grains and low in roughage significantly (P less than 0.01) contributed to development of obstructive urolithiasis. Supplementation of feed with ammonium chloride, vitamins and salt lick along with water accessibility to calves significantly (P less than 0.01) reduces the occurrence of obstructive urolithiasis. Furthermore, an unprecedented observation regarding the tethering arrangement of calves with their dams after parturition was also found to be significant (P less than 0.01). Therefore, obstructive urolithiasis in buffalo calves have multifactorial etiologies and pinpointing the exact cause remains elusive. However, beyond the established causative practices, tethering practice may also lead to this condition.

Background: Knowledge is a critical input for solving sustainable resource management issues. The study was conducted to determine the factors that influence the knowledge and attitudes of fishers about fish diversity and conservation in the Siang River of Arunachal Pradesh. Methods: This study used a descriptive research design. The data were collected from randomly selected 90 respondents from two blocks of East Siang District of Arunachal Pradesh with the help of a structured interview schedule and participant observation technique. The knowledge levels of the fishers were measured under three domains: conservation strategies, reservoir ecology and fishing practices. Result: The findings of the study revealed that the majority (53.33%) of respondents had a medium level of knowledge in three domains. Correlation analysis revealed that fishing experience and annual fishing days were positively and significantly correlated with knowledge level at a 1 per cent level of probability, whereas age and annual income were positively and significantly correlated with knowledge level at a 5 per cent level of probability. Gender, caste, education, family size, family type, average monthly catch and average fishing duration were not associated with the knowledge level of respondents about fish diversity and conservation. The attitude level of respondents was categorized into three categories: positive, neutral and negative. The findings of the study indicated that the majority of respondents (63.33%) had positive attitudes towards fish diversity and conservation, whereas 23.33 per cent had neutral attitudes and 13.34 per cent had negative attitudes toward fish diversity and conservation.

Published: June 2024

Background: Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a novel therapy in the field of gastroenterology which has been studied at current times with greater curiosity. Methods: FMT was applied as an adjunct to symptomatic treatment in Canine Parvovirus (CPV) affected dogs for a period of 8 days once daily from the day of presentation. The results were compared with a similar group suffering from CPV infection maintained only on symptomatic treatment. Result: Response to FMT was evaluated on the basis of time taken for resolution of diarrhoea, time of hospitalization, scoring of clinical parameters, recurrence of gastroenteritis within 2 months post therapy of the two groups. Furthermore, adverse events and retention time of the transplant after the procedure were noted. It was observed that the 66.67% (4/6) dogs of FMT treated group had a quicker resolution of diarrhoea (mean 48 hours); FMT treated dogs had better clinical scores compared to symptomatic therapy group (score of 1 or clinically insignificant vs 4 or mildly diseased), lesser recurrence of diarrhoea 2 months post therapy in FMT treated group (16.67% vs 50%). Post FMT one case showed low grade fever (n=1) and epistaxis (n=1) respectively which resolved within 24 hours. The mean retention time of the transplant improved from (20.83±2.39) minutes to (140± 12.66) on Day 7th of the trial (p less than 0.01). Faecal Microbiota Transplantation as an adjunct therapy might aid in early resolution of diarrhoea in acute diarrhoea in dogs.
The Architecture of Langgar Dhuwur in Java: Vernacular Forms in Religious Architecture
Authors: Sholihah Arif Budi , Ressang Asrul Mahjuddin , Setiawan Wisnu
Published: June 2024

Research on Friday Mosques dominates the study of religious buildings in Java. Meanwhile, research on small mosques, particularly Langgar Dhuwur, remains limited. The purpose of this study is to examine two Langgar Dhuwur in Kauman Yogyakarta from architectural and narrative perspectives in order to reveal the architectural characteristics as well as their role in society. Direct visual observations, measured drawings, and narratives about the study’s context were conducted. Five major themes from the observations were analyzed and discussed to draw significant conclusions. It is concluded that Langgar Dhuwur is a unique architectural type that preserves Indonesia’s vernacular and pre-Islamic architecture. Langgar Dhuwur in Kauman designated the second floor as a sacred area following the Hindu-Buddhist concept of Triloka (Svarloka). As a public building, Langgar Dhuwur serves as a place of worship as well as a cultural and social center. Therefore, it can be regarded as one of Indonesia’s religious architectural treasures due to its distinctive architectural style and rich history. It is recommended that the existence of Langgar Dhuwur, which has a multifunction role in community development, be preserved. Future design needs to emphasize an architectural typology that follows residential architecture, flexible space, and an open plan to accommodate various activities in the micro-scale community area.

Authors: Putra Hadi Jaya , Muchlis Aulia Fikriarini , Kusuma Hanson Endra
Published: June 2024

This research investigates the influence of extrinsic motivation on intrinsic motivation during worship at home and its implications for designing worship spaces within residential settings. The study explores the interplay between extrinsic and intrinsic motivations by employing a mixed-method approach, including qualitative and quantitative methods such as sequential mixed methods and factor analysis. The findings reveal that extrinsic motivation significantly shapes intrinsic motivation during worship at home. The research highlights the significance of privacy in fostering intrinsic motivation during home worship, where private spaces create a conducive environment for individuals to attain solemnity in their worship. In contrast to public spaces like mosques, designing dedicated worship spaces at home becomes essential to ensure a disturbance-free and enhanced worship experience. In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into the relationship between extrinsic and intrinsic motivations during worship at home. The identified tranquillity, spatial comfort, privacy, and spatial dimension can serve as essential considerations in designing worship spaces to enrich the worshippers' solemn experience within residential settings by architects or designers.
Sanjīda Mosque of Qazvīn: Function and Date of Construction
Authors: Ghasemi Leila , Tafazzoli Zohreh
Published: June 2024

There is a historic monument called the “Sanjīda Mosque” in the old Rah-Rey district in the city of Qazvin. However, the patron and date of its construction are unknown. Regarding the physical evidence in the building, as well as written evidence provided in the restoration reports and the works of some previous researchers on the resemblance of the building form to that of mausoleums, it is plausible that the original building served another purpose before it was modified to function as a mosque. There are various views regarding its original function. Some believe that the building was originally a fire temple later converted into a “mosque.” There is also a famous hearsay that the dome chamber of the Sanjīda building is the burial place of Hasan-i Sabbāh, the leader of the Nizārī Ismāʿīlī sect in Iran. Yet, some others believe that it contains the tomb of one of Imam Mūsā Kāẓim’s (the seventh Shi‘i Imam) descendants. Consequently, the building presents a certain degree of complexity and ambiguity. The areas of ambiguity include the original form and function of the building, the existence of associated urban features, and the cause and date of modifying its function. In this research, we attempted to examine various types of physical and historical evidence to propose and discuss several suppositions regarding the original function of the Sanjīda building. According to the explicit physical evidence, as well as written and contextual evidence, the detailed result suggests that the hypothesis proposing a mausoleum as the original function of the building is more plausible compared to others.

Mortality of the population of the Komi Republic: a historical approach
Authors: Fauzer V
Published: June 2024

The attitude of society and civil institutions to death is considered; it is noted that over the centuries the attitude of the population to death has changed - from accepting it as a «thing» inevitable, to understanding the loss of a loved one, a resource of society’s labor. With the development of society, progress in medicine and pharmaceutics, the causes of death were transformed - causes of natural-historical nature gave way to «causes of civilization», which was reflected in age and gender mortality rate. Until the mid-XX century, deaths caused greater damage to female population and children, but the modern period is characterized by increased mortality of the male population, primarily in the working age. Progress in medicine and healthcare, improving the attitude of the population to their health and the development of sports have made it possible to shift mortality rate to older ages.

Extinción de la inmunidad presidencial por casos de corrupción en la Constitución Política del Perú de 1993
Authors: Roel Alva Luis Andrés , Oblitas Villalobos William Jesús
Published: June 2024

El presente trabajo tiene por objeto analizar si la causal de corrupción puede incorpo­rarse como una excepción adicional a la inmunidad presidencial en la Constitución de 1993; y, junto a ello, se propone regular dicha causal como infracción constitucional. El método utilizado en la presente investigación es el explicativo, donde se establecerá la relación causa efecto entre la variable corrupción y el languidecimiento del siste­ma democrático, sirviéndonos de la filosofía, la doctrina constitucional, el Tribunal Constitución y la posición de la ONU (expresada a través de sus convenios), respecto a la gravedad social que irradia tal flagelo, y la necesidad de proteger al modelo y los derechos fundamentales que alberga.
Atendiendo a las fuentes antes mencionadas y considerando que, mientras más alta es la función, mayor es la responsabilidad, se vuelve imperioso modificar el artí­culo 117 de la Constitución que regula la inmunidad presidencial. De este modo, es necesario precisar que también es posible acusar al presidente de la República en casos de corrupción, entendiéndose este como delito o como infracción constitucional; es­tando a que ambos en su procedimiento se ejecutarían bajo consonancia con el debido proceso.
Von Zäunen und Pfosten : ein Beitrag zur Archäologie Peenemündes als Sperrgebiet
Authors: Schneider Peter Irenäus , Röhl Constanze , Müller-Kissing Johannes
Published: June 2024

Fundstellen einer Archäologie der Moderne konfrontieren die Forschung mit einem besonderen Befund- und Artefaktspektrum. Häufig ist dies trotz der zeitlichen Nähe zur Gegenwart oder guter Erhaltungszustände nicht ohne Schwierigkeiten zu entschlüsseln. Dies zeigt sich auch beim Thema der in dieser Publikation enthaltenen Zaunanlagen und zugehörigen Betonpfosten der ehemaligen Heeresversuchsanstalt Peenemünde sowie ihrer Nachfolgeeinrichtungen. Vorgelegt werden, aus Sicht von Bauforschung und Archäologie, erstmalig die baugeschichtliche Entwicklung der Betonpfosten, ihre Typologie anhand des Fallbeispiels Peenemünde, ihre unterschiedlichen Einsatzfelder und kulturhistorischen Wandlungen von den ersten Anfängen zu Beginn, bis zur Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Des Weiteren werden in chronologischer und nutzungsbezogener Darstellung die verschiedenen Abschnitte der Peenemünder Zaunanlagen dargestellt, und erlauben so eine Konkretisierung des Konzepts militärischer Sperrgebiete aus unterschiedlichen Zeitstellungen. Die besondere Stellung der Elektrifizierung von Zaunanlagen wird schließlich über Peenemünde hinausgreifend mit dem Kontext der Zaunanlagen um Kriegsgefangenen- und Konzentrationslager offensichtlich, die bislang nicht als zusammenhängender Themenkomplex aufgearbeitet sind. Damit wird zudem eine typologische Lücke zu vorhergegangenen zivilen und militärischen Anwendungen geschlossen. Daraus ergeben sich Ansätze für die bau- und kulturgeschichtliche Würdigung eines Landschaftselements, das vielleicht gerade aufgrund seiner Ubiquität und Alltäglichkeit im 20. Jahrhundert leicht zu übersehen, aber durchaus auch kontrovers zu betrachten ist.
The resurgence of military coups and implications for democratic stability in sub-Saharan Africa
Authors: Mendy Ousu , Mendy Andrew
Published: June 2024

Since the late 1980s, with no choice, there has been a strong wave of democracy and democratization in the continent with most of African countries beginning to move away from one-party or military dictatorships to multiparty democratic rule. There have been coup d'états on the African continent since the 1960s. However, the aim of this research is to examine the recent resurgence and growth of coups which is contrary to the consolidation and stability of democracy in Africa. It seeks to present the main trajectory of military coup d’ etats in sub-Saharan Africa focusing on its implication to democratic stability in the region. To achieve this, researchers engage a qualitative research method with in-depth assessment of coups and their impact on the growth in sub-Saharan Africa. The results of this research show that recent military takeovers have brought attention to a troubling trend in African politics: a rise in the use of unconstitutional methods to change governments. Military coups are to certain extent direct responses to citizens’ complaints considering bad governance, deteriorating citizens' living conditions, and rising levels of insecurity. This research, therefore, concludes that military coups expose sub-Saharan African to human rights violations. Due to these unpleasant conditions of sub-Saharan polity, men in uniform align to the view that it is through coups that they can oust out this civilian governments that have mutilated constitutions to allow them to rule their countries without term limit.
