Published: January 2022

The purpose of the article is to study the evolution of globalization of the world economy, estimate the consequences of strengthening the regional orientation as a result of slowbalization (slowing down the growth rate of the economy) and substantiate the measures to mitigate the consequences. As a result of the study, the stages of globalization are distinguished on the basis of world indices of open trade, which are: industrialization, interwar period, post-war period, liberalization and slowbalization. The dynamics of the worldwide GDP growth rate is studied and the onset of slowing down (or slowbalization) of the world economic system is substantiated. The problems of globalization are defined and factors of development of slowbalization are outlined. The peculiarities of the transformation of the global space are distinguished and it is substantiated that slowbalization can lead to strengthening of regional ties within economic systems. An analysis of regional slowbalization of economic systems was carried out, a detailing of de-globalization in China, Europe and Central Asia was considered, the impact of slowbalization on the economic development of the regions of Ukraine was determined. It is substantiated that the growth of socio-economic inequality of regions, which directly affects the level of socio-political stability, acts as a limiter of economic growth. It is determined that the State investments for the implementation of large-scale projects in Ukraine will ensure the development of the national economic system in harsh conditions of slowbalization. It is noted that in order to mitigate the negative consequences of slowbalization in order to develop economic systems, it is necessary to ensure consolidation of all sectors of the economy with a simultaneous focus on the specialization of the economic system. Prospects for further research in this direction are to define the priority intraregional flows in Ukraine in the context of slowbalization and to develop appropriate industrial and investment policies for the development of regions in order to their further economic development.

Published: January 2022

Transition to the knowledge economy in the 21st century is accompanied by an active search for approaches to the management of socio-economic systems, the core of which is represented by technology. By means of innovative technologies, the basics of old business and capital reproduction models are destroyed, while the concentration of production factors and the attraction of assets of various investors acquires an appropriate target orientation. Accordingly, the problems of identifying the results of technology transfer and improving its efficiency are the subject of scientific and applied research in the field of international marketing, innovative and investment management. This publication is aimed at researching the policy of technology transfer to gain competitive advantages in domestic and foreign markets and the peculiarities of its implementation in the conditions of digitalization and servitization of global business, which is justified by the construction of appropriate mathematical models on the example of countries, leading in the world exports of computer services. Innovation technology is considered from different sides as follows: the object of transactions in international relations; the factor of formation of dynamic competitive advantages at both the macro- and the micro-levels; a driving force in shaping dynamic competitive advantages of goods and services; the basis for the growth of the country’s export potential. It is proved that thanks to information and computer technologies, the dominant properties of capital are manifested and the importance of innovative entrepreneurship in the economy with alternative sources of added value creation in related industries with a growing range of intellectual services is increasing. A contentual model of technology transfer as a dynamic process of absorption of technologies through the diffusion of new knowledge is built.
The Preconditions for the Development of an Integrated Approach to Assessing the Urban Socio-Economic Security
Authors:   Vinnytsia Institute of Trade and Economics of Kyiv National University of Trade and Economics, Romanovska Y. A.
Published: January 2022

The assessment of the urban socio-economic security is one of the understudied issues of the economic safetyology, there isn’t a generally accepted assessment methodology, the approaches to evaluation, upon which the quality of assessments largely depends, have not been definitively evolved. The premise of the carried out research is the findings of analysis of existing approaches to evaluating objects in the economic safetyology, which has been done to identify the validity of these approaches or their elements as to urban socio-economic security assessment. Modeling has been widespread in assessing the economic or socio-economic security of objects in the economic safetyology. But the main problem in such modeling is the locality of models, their partial nature, the inability to become a general model, to be appropriate under any market conditions and for any time for the objects corresponding to at least one level (macro-, meso-, micro-levels). In assessing the economic or socio-economic security of objects in the economic safetyology, approaches to assessing socio-economic security often interact, are used jointly, intersect, which makes it difficult to choose a particular approach for assessment. The results of the analysis of approaches to assessing economic or socio-economic security of the objects of the economic safetyology provide the basis for particular conclusions and generalizations as well as defining the prerequisites for developing a comprehensive approach to assessing the socio-economic security of urban areas. This approach should be formed by borrowing certain elements from the approaches analyzed: conceptions of structural functionalism of T. Parsons; the constructs, through which the content of the category of «urban socio-economic security» is disclosed; cross-factor analysis and technology of building economic barometers.

Published: January 2022

The purpose of this paper is to show the importance of implementing the didactic briefcases (maletas didácticas) from El Museo del Oro in the EFL classroom as a means to foster culture through the use of a theme-based approach. To this end, a bibliographical review was carried out by searching different research articles master and BA theses in order to know about the implementation of the didactic briefcases in Colombia. Thus, the information presented in this paper is to help EFL teachers to realize how beneficial it could be to integrate the didactic briefcases and Theme-Based Instruction (TBI) in their lessons to make them more didactic, flexible, engaging, collaborative, and dynamic while integrating culture in the curriculum. In fact, some studies showed that the didactic briefcases have been used in different areas of Colombian education, such as Arts and Social Science, but not in English. Finally, the results showed that it is possible to implement the didactic briefcases through a theme-based approach because it allows students to open their minds to their own roots and become more critical when interacting with people from different cultural backgrounds.

MULTI-LEVEL GOVERNANCE IN PUBLIC POLICY IN INDONESIA
Authors: Andriyana Andriyana , Jowono Vishnu
Published: January 2022

Multi-level governance (MLG) is often used in the development of multi-level public policies. The MLG has a lot to say about the ideal form of government to improve the quality of policy delivery. Multi-level has been considered as an inhibiting factor in policy implementation studies, however by MLG it is an opportunity to increase the effectiveness of public policies. Indonesia is a unitary state that has a multilevel government structure. Decentralization poses a challenge to governments in Indonesia to cooperate with each other to produce policies that are able to solve community problems. This study seeks to align MLG with Indonesian conditions so that it can become a policy analysis tool capable of producing recommendations to improve policy implementation in Indonesia. In order for MLG to become an analytical framework, three things need to be considered, namely the network of actors involved, coordination between actors, and the presence of non-government actors at each stage of the policy

The South Iceland lowland is an active seismic zone. In May 2008 a
shallow Mw6.3 earthquake occurred in the Ölfus region in South Iceland.
The epicentre was located in the middle of farmlands and also close to
two small towns in the area. The recorded maximum PGA was 0.88g in
the town Hveragerði, about 2–3 km from the main fault. A great deal of
damage occurred, but fortunately there was no loss of life. All buildings
in Iceland are registered in a detailed official database. Insurance against
natural disasters is obligatory. After the Ölfus earthquake, damage and
repair cost for every affected building was estimated by trained estimators
in order to cover the loss incurred for policy holders. The damage data for
every property was split into number of subcategories. Analysis of the data
showed that damage of structural elements was only a fraction of the total
damage, and most of the estimated repair cost was related to cosmetic
non-structural surface damage that required replacement of flooring, tiles
and paint work.
Er samræmi á milli þeirrar áhættu sem íslenskir ákvörðunartakar telja sig tilbúna til að taka og raunverulegrar hættu á kostnaðarframúrkeyrslu verkefna?

Iceland was severely hit by an economic depression when the entire financial system of the country collapsed in 2008. The aftermath has resulted in various investigation reports attempting to understand what went wrong and why. A part of the explanation offered is that politicians and other stakeholders are influenced by psychological factors named cognitive biases. Cognitive biases can lead to judgmental errors and misperceptions of the real state of nature. This research investigates if the perception of personal risk attitude among Icelandic parliamentarians facing investment decision rhymes with the statistics available on cost overruns in Icelandic public projects. The results are paradoxical as Icelandic parliamentarians observe themselves as very risk averse decision makers while there are clear indications of high risk of cost overruns in public projects.

The implementation of ISO 9001 QMS in 21 organization in Iceland was investigated by interviewing the quality managers. In general, the organizations claimed that they regarded the implementation as a project and applied project management methodology, to some extent. Among key factors in a successful implementation is the positive attitude and direct participation of managers, in addition to active participation of the employees, good preparation and goal setting. It can be stated that organizations that took into account their internal cost ­ cost of employee participation ­ concluded successful implementation on schedule. The time it took those companies to implement QMS was much shorter than for the organizations that did not take this internal cost into account.

Published: January 2022

This study examines the influence of social networks on the settlement and integration of young internal migrants in Malawi.  By employing probit models on a unique dataset collected from 1500 urban migrant youths aged between 15 to 35. The results reveal that social networks positively relate to migrant youths settlement in their first migration destination. The relationship is driven by religious grouping membership. Further, social networks of religious groupings and home associations positively relate to migrant youth integration, observed from their increased business ownership. Membership to workers’ unions relates negatively to entrepreneurship. The social networks do not relate to wage job employment. These findings suggest that policy that supports establishment of social networks or leverages their availability could be are key in improving migrant youth welfare through supporting settlement and integration. However, if the goal is enhance migrant youth's formal employment, alternative interventions such as vocation training should be considered.
Being Young in the Diaspora: Fragmentation of the Palestinian Youth Mobilisation from the Middle East to Europe
Authors: Christou Fanny
Published: January 2022

While the current research mainly deals with the Palestinian youth in the Middle East, reports from various organisations, whose most accounts are descriptive, hardly provide a sustained and critical evaluation of their nature and impact. With an urgent need to understand better youth engagement in exile under adverse conditions in a conflict-ridden society such as the Palestinian one, this paper aims to analyse the Palestinian youth initiatives from the Middle-East (Lebanon, Syria and Palestine) to Europe (Sweden). Focusing on the Palestinian youth in the diaspora, this paper provides an analysis of the impact of migratory trajectories and activist backgrounds in regards to the evolution of the mobilisation’s practices. Notwithstanding the stunning achievements of the Palestinian youth movement, this article investigates the fragmentation and even collapse of many of these types of engagement due to political and socio-cultural ruptures, throughout data collected in Sweden, and employing the youth engagement theoretical framework.
The determination of toxic level of selenium preparations
Authors: Tsekhmistrenko О. , Bityutskyy V. , Tsekhmistrenko S. , Demchenko O.
Published: January 2022

Poultry farming has a significant need for balanced nutrients to ensure high growth rates. Traditionally used selenium drugs do not fully provide protection against the effects of stressors due to the narrow range of non-toxic doses, difficult assimilation of inorganic drugs, the difficulty of regulating the biological effect of the use of organic forms of compounds. The new selenium nanosized preparations have a higher surface-to-volume ratio than traditional preparations, have a wider range of non-toxic doses, and can otherwise affect metabolic processes according to the characteristics of the nanoparticles used. To establish the appropriateness of their use in poultry feeding, itwas studied the toxicity of selenium and probiotic preparations byintragastric administration to laboratory animals. In collaboration with the Institute of D.K. Zabolotny Microbiology and Virology Institute of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine at the Research Institute of Ecology and Biotechnology of Bila Tserkva National Agrarian University there was developed a technology of "green" production of a multifunctional antioxidant - nanopopulation "Nano". Indicators of acute and acute toxicity of sodium selenite with probiotic and bionanoselen were studied in white mice and rats, to which the studied feed additives were administered intragastrically for 14 and 30 days in different doses. The next day after administration, rats were decapitated under light ether anesthesia, blood samples were taken, hematological tests were performed according to generally accepted methods and organ mass ratios were determined. The study allows us to conclude about the low-toxic effect of selenium preparations on experimental animals, their significant effect on the growth of certain hematological parameters of the blood and the absence of significant changes in the weights of internal organs. Significant differences in the mass of internal organs: liver, lungs, heart and kidneys were not detected, indicating the absence of toxic effects of nonoselen in different doses on these organs.
Key words: nanopreparations, selenium, toxicity, rats, mice, blood, internal organs.

Salah satunya microservice, arsitektur yang menjadikan aplikasi menjadi beberapa komponen yang berdiri sendiri dan memiliki tanggung jawab kerja yang unik. Dengan microservice, infrastruktur yang diterapkan bisa dibagi menjadi beberapa komponen yang saling terhubung. Microservice mengedepankan fleksibilitas sehingga komponen-komponen yang ada bisa digunakan ulang oleh komponen atau layanan lain. Dalam jurnal ini, penulis akan merancang arsitektur microservice untuk portal berita daring berdasarkan hasil observasi, studi literatur, dan studi empiris terhadap beberapa portal berita daring sehingga didapat komponen apa saja yang terdapat pada portal berita daring.

Interocular Difference of Axial Length, Anterior Chamber Depth, Keratometry, Corneal Astigmatism According to Axial Length
Authors: Lee Moon Hyung , Kim Hong Kyu , Kim Sung Soo
Published: January 2022

Purpose: To investigate the interocular difference of axial length (AL), mean keratometry (K), corneal astigmatism and anterior chamber depth (ACD) according to AL without history of ocular surgery.Methods: This study was performed on 16,411 patients (32,825 eyes) who were measured AL, K, corneal astigmatism and ACD by IOL Master® from April 2007 to September 2016, excluding patients with missing values and extreme values in AL. After, patients were divided into four groups based on AL; AL < 24 mm, 24 mm ≤ AL < 26 mm, 26 mm ≤ AL < 28 mm, AL ≥ 28 mm, we investigated which variables were associated according to AL. To compensate for age and sex, 1:1:1:1 random matching was performed for age and sex.Results: The longer the average AL of both eyes, the greater the difference between the AL, ACD and mean corneal K of both eyes. The longer AL group had the deeper ACD, the flatter mean corneal K, the higher corneal astigmatism. The older age group had the more shallow ACD, the steeper mean corneal K, lower corneal astigmatism.Conclusions: Ophthalmologists have to be careful in setting fellow eye as control in treating or studying patients with long AL or axial myopia. Because, the longer the average AL of both eyes, the greater the difference between the AL, the ACD and the mean corneal K of both eyes.

This study aimed to understand how hyperbaric oxygen therapy can act in the treatment of osteoradionecrosis of the jaws in patients with head and neck cancer. A total of 266 publications were found. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 19 articles were selected. Osteoradionecrosis is a condition with great potential for bone destruction, and therefore, many methods for treatment have been vehemently studied. Although the mechanism of action of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is not fully understood, it is known that the physiochemistry that drives the action is a result of two factors: 100% inspired oxygen and exposure to high atmospheric pressure. In addition, oxygen when present in larger quantities in the body can act to heal necrotic regions, oxygenating regions where hypoxia and hypoperfusion have occurred. However, this therapy is not totally innocuous and has significant issues for the patient, among them, the limitation of its access, and with this, the cost for oxygen therapy is very high. The negative impact that osteoradionecrosis has on oncology patients can be seen, and how hyperbaric therapy can act in the treatment of necrosis caused by oncotherapy in patients with head and neck cancer, due to its numerous effects on oxidative metabolism. In contrast, it is necessary to correctly evaluate the indication of the treatment, because the therapy has relevant adverse effects that deserve attention.

Research Purposes. This study aims to test whether there are differences in resource cost allocations when decision makers receive negative or positive information. Research Methods. This research with a 2x3x2 mixed subject design was conducted using an internet-based experimental application with the final result of 132 participants who passed the manipulation check. Research Results and Findings. The study results do not show differences in resource cost allocations when there are differences in performance achievement. The effectiveness of the strategy map is proven to be significant when the decision makers get the strategy map visualization, that is, there is no excessive allocation compared to those in the group without the strategy map visualization.
The Kaʿba as Qibla
Authors: O'Meara Simon
Published: January 2022

This chapter concerns the Islamic prayer direction, or qibla. Facing the Kaʿba by adopting the qibla is the most ubiquitous use of the Kaʿba, undertaken at every ritual prayer and several other rituals. The chapter begins with a review of the history and meaning of the term qibla, analysing its literal and symbolic meanings, not just its Islamic customary meaning as the direction of the Kaʿba. It then demonstrates that throughout Islamic history not only have religious buildings, most especially mosques, been constructed in conformity with this sacred direction, but unexpectedly and much less consistently, towns and cities, too.
The Kaʿba as Substructure
Authors: O'Meara Simon
Published: January 2022

This chapter concerns the Kaʿba when its superstructure lies in ruins and only its substucture remains. Beginning with an account of destructions the Kaʿba has suffered throughout its history, the chapter explores what those ruinations reveal about the Kaʿba. Demonstrating that they have not occasioned the kind of apocalyptic anxiety that might be expected after the collapse of the world’s alleged axis, the chapter asks how that could be. Four reasons are adduced in answer. One reason speaks of the role of the Kaʿba at the apocalypse; a second reason speaks of the fact that what ultimately matters about the Kaʿba are its allegedly unnatural, awesome foundations; a third reason speaks of the Kaʿba’s incorporation in Sufism as the human heart; and a fourth reason speaks of the role of the Kaʿba in structuring foundational concepts of Islamic thought.
Fencing in the Boundaries of the Community: Migration, Nationalism and Populism in Hungary
Authors: Sata Robert
Published: January 2022

This chapter argues that the European migration crisis just provided more ground for nationalist populist politics of the Fidesz government of Hungary. Using a systematic content analysis of the official speeches of the PM Viktor Orbán since 2010, the chapter shows this new conception of national identity mobilizes against the collapse of traditional national values as well as the liberal rationalism embodied by EU institutions and puts Hungarian nationals above all others. In this setting, the discursive construction and use of ‘otherness’ in public discourse stand for the representations of migrants as a deviant groups of people, enemies of the Hungarian nation, of a threatening ideology/religion that must be opposed. Citizenship is hijacked as a civilizational/cultural marker to distinguish ‘us’ from the ‘other’. Europe and its common governance systems, secular organization, religious tolerance, and liberal foundation only exacerbate this threat, making the EU become ‘the other’, against what the national identity must be protected.
Nature, Nurse, Khôra: Notes on the Poetics of Hölderlin’s Ode ‘Man’
Authors: Szabó Csaba
Published: January 2022

This reading of the poem ‘Man’, which begins with a playful cosmogony, attempts to show that the poem not only anticipates (natural-)philosophical motifs of the late Hölderlin, but also sketches the poetic theory of Hölderlin’s later creative phases. Two reference texts play a crucial role in this interpretation: Plato’s Timaeus and Kant’s ‘Conjectures on the Beginnings of Human History’. The Timaeus is important because of its cosmological concept and above all its notion of the khôra. The essay by Kant is textually close to the poem, especially in its interpretation of the scene of the Fall of Man. The chapter considers moments of becoming human in the poem, such as the choice of the vine as a nurse and the subject’s desire to resemble nature in light of Benjamin's concept of the mimetic faculty.
Not Rhythm
Authors: Mieszkowski Jan
Published: January 2022

This chapter explores the concept of rhythm in Hölderlin. It opens by asking why scholars have been quick to identify the gnomic ‘Everything is rhythm’ as a key tenet of Hölderlin’s poetics despite the fact that he never penned the line and may well never have said it. In an effort to elucidate Hölderlin’s understanding of rhythmic and counter-rhythmic interruptions, the discussion turns to ‘Voice of the People’ and ‘Germanien’, where the negative operator nicht threatens to expose any given verbal formation as contingent rather than necessary. In these poems, rhythm is never reducible to a single schema but instead manifests as the expression of multiple – possible and impossible – patterns. In this respect, Hölderlin’s notion of rhythm is a return to the Ancient Greek conception of rhuthmos, which names less a predictable series of changes than a volatile, protean form.
The Gothic Tradition in Jane Eyre and The Woman in White in Russian Translations, 1849–1860
Authors: Syskina Anna A. , Matveenko Irina A.
Published: January 2022

Elements drawn from the Gothic tradition were of particular interest to the mid-nineteenth-century Russian translators of Jane Eyre and The Woman in White. That interest was stimulated by the democratization of literature, the expanding market for popular fiction, and the consequent search for models from abroad. In this article, we consider how these early translators rendered the Gothic features of these novels, and especially how they intensified and exaggerated the elements of mystery and terror. We also consider contrasts in the reviewers’ responses to Brontë’s and Collins’s texts, contrasts that we argue were based on an implicit gender bias.
Dracula's Family Tree: Demonology, Taxonomy, and Orientalist Influences in Bram Stoker's Iconic Novel
Authors: White David Gordon
Published: January 2022

Prior to Bram Stoker's Dracula, vampires were never represented in literature as reanimated or ‘undead’ humans capable of transforming into bats. The source of Stoker's innovation may be traced to his personal acquaintance Sir Richard Francis Burton, who in his adaptation of a South Asian anthology of ‘Gothic’ tales of horror and adventure had identified its hero's antagonist, called a vetāla in Sanskrit, as both a male vampire and a giant bat. This article surveys a number of ancient, medieval, and early modern Asian and European precursors of Stoker's vampire lore, noting that unlike Stoker's shape-shifting Transylvanian Count, predatory ‘vampires’ were most often female in gender in these traditions, and their victims male; and reviews the shifting interface between the taxonomical and cultural categories of ‘vampire’ and ‘bat’ in Europe, Asia, and the Americas.
What Was Huck Running Away From? Rebellion, Canonicity, and the Chinese Translation of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Authors: Jing Yu
Published: January 2022

This article examines three translations of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn to reveal how concepts like rebellion are delivered in them. While Huck has been depicted as a controversial rebel running away from the ‘sivilized’ world in America, textual and paratextual evidence in the translations shows his rebellion has been redirected in China to different socio-historical contexts and readerships. This article finds three factors that may have contributed to the metamorphosis of rebellion in China: adults’ projection of children's roles, mainstream attitudes towards rebellion, and core Chinese social values, such as filial piety, respect for seniority, and collectivism.
