The study was necessitated by the observation that despite that state-owned universities in developing countries have self-sustaining business approaches; however, they are continuously failing to generate enough financial resources, resulting in over depending on government grants. Consequently, the inefficiencies have adverse impacts on students' academic life. Therefore, the current study explored the implications and contributions of yield management to the performance of the Accommodation departments in state-owned universities. The explorative study employed a quantitative research design. Yield management practice is the independent variable and financial performance is the dependent variable. The sample size was comprised of three managers and 357 operational staff to make a total of n (360) from multiple-case studies of three largest universities in Zimbabwe. Simple random sampling was employed on non-management staff, while purposive sampling was done on managers. Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 22 was used to test factor analysis, regression analysis and mean rankings. The key result confirmed a positive correlation between yield management and the financial performance of Accommodation departments of the selected state-owned universities. The practical implication is that state-owned universities have to invest heavily in manpower training and technological infrastructure for easy data storage, processing, and transfer. The recommendations points for a need to motivate employees through reward systems for successful yield management adoption. The study limitations are skewed towards the usage of three state universities out of ten state universities in one developing country in the Southern African higher education. Therefore, further studies should be focusing on all higher institutions for better contribution to policy and decision making as regulated by the governments in developing states.

Authors: Dengedza Modester , S Badza Rutendo , Rinomhota Anita , Mhonda Livingstone , Chimbuya Martin , Shonhiwa Nelson
Published: February 2025

Tourism plays a vital role in the economic development of both developed and developing countries, serving as a significant driver of growth. In Zimbabwe, tourism is one of the fastest-growing sectors after mining and agriculture. To capitalize on this potential, investments are sought in various tourism sub-sectors, including accommodation, conference facilities, restaurants, theme parks, and other tourism facilities. The Zimbabwean government have created an enabling environment to boost tourism revenue as it is key to the development of the country. This was done through providing incentives such as duty rebates, tax breaks, and tax exemptions in designated Tourism Development Zones to support investors. These efforts aim to diversify the tourism product base, enhance competitiveness, and attract more visitors. This study sought to analyse the contribution of tourism revenue towards economic growth. The research employed a quantitative approach, utilizing secondary data and time-series analysis through Simple Linear Regression Model and ordinary least squares. Findings revealed a positive correlation between tourism revenue, trade openness, and government expenditure, while inflation exhibited a negative impact. This indicates that tourism revenue significantly contributes to economic growth. The findings of the research will inform policy decisions and strategies aimed at enhancing the tourism sector’s contribution to Zimbabwe’s economic growth. By prioritizing tourism development, Zimbabwe can unlock its full potential and reap the benefits of this vital sector.
L AJOUT D UN SEUIL DE PAQUET ANNEE A L AUTOQUESTIONNAIRE DE LA HAS AMELIORE T IL LE REPERAGE CIBLE DE LA BPCO EN SOINS PRIMAIRES ?
Authors: LORENZO M , WENDLING M , TROTOBAS G , DUPRE V
Published: February 2025

Introduction. La Haute Autorité de santé propose un autoquestionnaire (AQHAS) à destination
des patients pour optimiser la recherche ciblée de la bronchopneumopathie chronique obstructive
(BPCO) parmi les patients à risque en soins primaires. Ce questionnaire ne comporte pas
de seuil de paquet-année (PA) alors que certaines stratégies en soins primaires ont utilisé un
tel seuil par le passé. En 2020, une étude pilote de faible puissance avait comparé les valeurs
prédictives positives (VPP) de l’AQHAS seul versus l’AQHAS avec ajout de seuils de paquet-année
(questionnaire MSP) pour cibler la population chez qui rechercher une BPCO en soins primaires.
L’objectif principal de cette étude était de comparer la VPP du questionnaire MSP versus l’AQHAS.
L’objectif secondaire était d’analyser le lien entre durée et intensité du tabagisme, âge et BPCO.
Méthodes. Étude prospective monocentrique menée en soins primaires au sein d’une MSP en
Alsace. Identification parmi les patients tabagiques ou anciens tabagiques des sujets avec un
autoquestionnaire de la HAS positif, un seuil de paquet-année (PA) positif ou les deux, puis
réalisation de spirométries post-bronchodilatation par un des médecins de la structure.
Résultats. Quatre-vingt-quatre patients ont été inclus de janvier 2018 à août 2021. La VPP du
questionnaire MSP était de 0,44 et celle de l’AQHAS de 0,46 (p < 0,001).
Conclusion. L’ajout d’un seuil de PA à l’AQHAS ne permettait pas de mieux cibler la population
à risque de développer une BPCO en soins primaires dans cette étude. L’AQHAS reste l’outil de
référence pour cibler les patients à risque de présenter une BPCO.
REVUE DES OUTILS DE REPERAGE DE LA MALTRAITANCE DE LA PERSONNE AGEE ET ETUDE DE LA FAISABILITE EN MEDECINE GENERALE
Authors: SEVIN C , DELEPIERE J , PARMILLEUX O , PERROTIN S
Published: February 2025

Contexte. La maltraitance des personnes âgées (PA) touchait une PA sur six dans le monde en 2017. Plusieurs outils de repérage de cette maltraitance ont été décrits dans la littérature. En France, aucun outil n’est recommandé pour les médecins généralistes.
Objectifs. Actualiser les données sur les outils existant dans la littérature pour repérer la maltraitance des PA. En étudier les critères de faisabilité et les propriétés psychométriques en médecine générale (MG).
Méthode. Une revue systématique de la littérature a été réalisée en novembre 2022. Les bases de données Medline, Embase et Web of Science ont été interrogées. Les articles ont été sélectionnés après double lecture selon les critères d’inclusion. Les critères de faisabilité, en termes de durée, de personne réalisant le test, de matériel, de lieu de réalisation, de disponibilité en langue française et d’acceptabilité par les professionnels de santé et les patients, ont été extraits de manière indépendante sous forme de tableaux. Les propriétés psychométriques des outils ont été extraites pour étudier leur validité interne.
Résultats. Les outils ED Senior AID, EASI et VASS étaient les plus adaptés. Ils étudiaient la maltraitance globale et le niveau cognitif de la PA, étaient réalisables en moins de quinze minutes et ne nécessitaient pas de formation. EASI et VASS ont été traduits en français et seul EASI avait été testé en ambulatoire. ED Senior AID et VASS avaient une sensibilité supérieure à 90 %. La spécificité de VASS était insuffisante (49 %).
Conclusion. Les deux outils les plus adaptés à la pratique de la MG sont ED Senior AID et EASI. ED Senior AID mériterait d’être testé en ambulatoire. La connaissance de ces outils par les médecins généralistes pourrait améliorer le repérage de la maltraitance des PA.

Inégalités de bien-être et indice de développement humain
L’indice de développement humain (IDH) est un indicateur composite évaluant l’espérance de vie, l’éducation et les revenus. Cependant, il ne prend pas en compte les inégalités internes aux pays. Cette étude a adapté l’IDH pour mesurer les disparités individuelles aux États-Unis selon l’origine ethnique, le sexe, l’âge et la localisation géographique. L’IDH individuel a été calculé à partir des années d’éducation, de la consommation des ménages et de l’espérance de vie estimée via des modèles bayésiens appliqués aux certificats de décès. L’IDH était le plus élevé chez les Asiatiques (0,59 pour les femmes, 0,57 pour les hommes) et les Blancs (0,51 pour les femmes, 0,41 pour les hommes), tandis qu’il était le plus bas chez les Amérindiens et les Noirs (0,23 pour les hommes des deux groupes). L’appartenance aux déciles extrêmes de l’IDH montrait des disparités. Dans le décile le plus bas de l’IDH, il y avait une sur-représentation des hommes amérindiens (50 %), des hommes noirs (40 %), des femmes amérindiennes (23 %) et des hommes latinos (21 %). Dans le décile le plus élevé, il y avait une sur-représentation des femmes asiatiques (37 %) et des hommes asiatiques (30 %). Entre 2008 et 2019, l’IDH moyen a augmenté progressivement, avant de chuter en 2020 en raison de la diminution de l’espérance de vie, notamment chez les hommes noirs (-3,8 ans) et latinos (-3,8 ans). Les inégalités de bien-être aux États-Unis sont marquées par des différences selon l’origine ethnique, le sexe et la localisation. Ces écarts ne sont pas immuables, mais leur réduction nécessite des interventions ciblées pour améliorer l’accès à l’éducation, aux revenus et aux soins de santé.

This study aims to identify the extent to which the Health Center is ready for the implementation of Electronic Medical Records. The methodology applied in this study is Literature Review. The data sources used are secondary data collected from various literature sources available on the internet. The journal used is a reputable publication and focuses on the theme of readiness to implement electronic medical records at the Health Center. The collection of journals was carried out with inclusion criteria that included Population, Intervention, Comparator, Results, Time, Study Design, and Language, so that the total journals analyzed in this study reached 10 Journals. The readiness in the implementation of electronic medical records seen from the aspect of human resources in the Puskesmas shows that they are not fully prepared, because there are still several challenges such as the shortage of medical personnel responsible for medical records and the mismatch between the educational background of employees and the tasks carried out. In terms of cost, the Puskesmas is quite ready for the implementation of electronic medical records and no obstacles were found in terms of funding. In terms of materials, the Puskesmas is not fully prepared, because there are still several problems faced, such as the lack of computers, network problems that are often unstable, and system disruptions that cause errors. In the mechanical aspect, the health center showed quite good readiness, with the results of the study showing that the health center developed more electronic medical record systems using the waterfall approach. However, there are no health centers that implement an electronic system for RME developed by the Ministry of Health in this study. In terms of methodology, the Puskesmas is quite ready, which can be evidenced by the existence of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for the implementation of Electronic Medical Records in several Puskesmas.

Nietzsche and Zen
Authors: van der Braak Andre
Published: February 2025

In Nietzsche and Zen: Self-Overcoming Without a Self, André van der Braak engages Nietzsche in a dialogue with four representatives of the Buddhist Zen tradition: Nagarjuna (c. 150-250), Linji (d. 860), Dogen (1200-1253), and Nishitani (1900-1990). In doing so, he reveals Nietzsche's thought as a philosophy of continuous self-overcoming, in which even the notion of "self" has been overcome. Van der Braak begins by analyzing Nietzsche's relationship to Buddhism and status as a transcultural thinker, recalling research on Nietzsche and Zen to date and setting out the basic argument of the study. He continues by examining the practices of self-overcoming in Nietzsche and Zen, comparing Nietzsche's radical skepticism with that of Nagarjuna and comparing Nietzsche's approach to truth to Linji's. Nietzsche's methods of self-overcoming are compared to Dogen's zazen, or sitting meditation practice, and Dogen's notion of forgetting the self. These comparisons and others build van der Braak's case for a criticism of Nietzsche informed by the ideas of Zen Buddhism and a criticism of Zen Buddhism seen through the Western lens of Nietzsche - coalescing into one world philosophy. This treatment, focusing on one of the most fruitful areas of research within contemporary comparative and intercultural philosophy, will be useful to Nietzsche scholars, continental philosophers, and comparative philosophers.
African Spirituality in Black Women's Fiction
Authors: West Elizabeth J.
Published: February 2025

African Spirituality in Black Women’s Fiction: Threaded Visions of Memory, Community, Nature and Being is the nexus to scholarship on manifestations of Africanisms in black art and culture, particularly the scant critical works focusing on African metaphysical retentions. This study examines New World African spirituality as a syncretic dynamic of spiritual retentions and transformations that have played prominently in the literary imagination of black women writers. Beginning with the poetry of Phillis Wheatley, African Spiritualityin Black Women’s Fiction traces applications and transformations of African spirituality in black women’s writings that culminate in the conscious and deliberate celebration of Africanity in Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God. The journey from Wheatley’s veiled remembrances to Hurston’s explicit gaze of continental Africa represents the literary journey of black women writers to represent Africa as not only a very real creative resource but also a liberating one. Hurston’s icon of black female autonomy and self realization is woven from the threadwork of African spiritual principles that date back to early black women’s writings.
Breaking Bad Habits of Race and Gender
Authors: Stitzlein Sarah Marie
Published: February 2025

Every day teachers encounter moments of racial and gender tension in their classrooms. In the most drastic cases, these situations erupt into overt conflict or violence, while in other instances they go largely unnoted. Such incidents reveal that despite equality legislation and the good intentions of many teachers, racial and gender problems persist. How can teachers more effectively handle these moments? How can they prevent them in the future? This book is the first to unite two major schools of educational philosophy, traditional American pragmatism and contemporary poststructuralism, to offer both theoretical and concrete suggestions for dealing with actual classroom race and gender related events. While schools are one of the most common settings of race and gender discord, this book upholds schools as the primary location for alleviating systems of oppression. For it is within schools that children learn how to enact and respond to race and gender through the cultivation of habits, including dispositions, bodily comportment, and ways of interacting. In a spirit of social transformation, this book argues that when students learn to inhabit their races and genders more flexibly, many classroom problems can be prevented and current social structures of identity-based oppression can be alleviated.
The Tie Goes to Freedom
Authors: Knowles Helen J.
Published: February 2025

At the ideological center of the Supreme Court sits Anthony M. Kennedy, whose pivotal role on the Rehnquist Court is only expected to grow in importance now that he is the lone 'swing Justice' on the Roberts Court. The Ties Goes to Freedom is the first book-length analysis of Kennedy, and it challenges the conventional wisdom that his jurisprudence is inconsistent and incoherent. Using the hot-button issues of privacy rights, race, and free speech, this book demonstrates how Kennedy forcefully articulates a libertarian constitutional vision. The Tie Goes to Freedom fills two significant voids—one examining the jurisprudence of the man at the ideological center of the Supreme Court, the other demonstrating the compatibility of an expansive judicial role with libertarian political theory.
To Make the Earth Whole
Authors: Gopin Marc
Published: February 2025

To Make the Earth Whole studies the art of citizen diplomacy_a process that can address clashes of religion and culture across regional lines even when traditional negotiations between governments can fail. While faith and regional differences have been sources of division around the world in recent decades, millions of citizens are also creating bonds of friendship and collaboration that are forming the basis of a global community. Drawing on the experiences gleaned from years practicing citizen diplomacy in some of the world's most politically charged climates, scholar-practitioner of conflict resolution and rabbi Marc Gopin describes his work in Syria as a central case study of the book. The author outlines the strategic basis for creating community across lines of enmity, the social network theory to explain how this happens, and the long term vision required for a progressive but inclusive global community that respects religious communities even as it limits their coercive power over others. This powerful and practical book outlines an incremental and evolutionary strategy of positive change that stands a strong chance of success, even in today's most conservative and repressive religious and political contexts. To Make the Earth Whole also examines the ethical challenges of citizen diplomacy from the perspectives of both Western and Eastern philosophies and religions. The world's wisdom traditions are essential in devising a way for citizens to develop the foundations for global community.
Community As Healing
Authors: Hester Micah D.
Published: February 2025

The brief history of 20th century bioethics has been dominated by discussions of principles and appeals to autonomy that both divorce theory from practice and champion a notion of the individual as prior to and isolated from society. Pragmatism, on the other hand, has long sought to reconstruct ethical thought with the belief that distinctions between theory and practice, individual and society are not a priori starting points but purposeful developments of inquiry. Using insights from classic pragmatism, the author proposes reconstructive accounts of physician-patient relationships resulting in an emphasis on aiding the process of meaningful/significant living for all individuals involved in medical encounters. William James, John Dewey, and George Herbert Mead, among others, provide discussions of human relationships which accentuate the situatedness of problems and solutions and stress the need for building shared experience in order to develop both self and community. With an insistence on a recognition of a functional concept of the self (or 'self as social product'), the author's pragmatic position illuminates the integration of self with the community and leads to a new practice in the medical encounter, based on an attitude of community as healing.
The Transformational Decade
Authors: London Herbert I.
Published: February 2025

The Transformational Decade shows the transformation that took place in American life from the attack on the World Trade Center to the emergence of the Obama presidency. It is not a strict history, but rather snapshots of a decade that has fundamentally altered perceptions of the United States.

In some respects, this book is modeled after Frederick Lewis Allen’s Only Yesterday and Since Yesterday, acclaimed books that sought to capture the spirit of the 1920s and ’30s. London sees the period from 2001 to 2008 as “post yesterday,” a period that broke with the past, challenged the essence of the free market, and contested America’s role on the world stage.

In an effort to limn these snapshots from recent history, London has written several “decade” books: The Overheated Decade, The Counterfeit Decade, and The Decade of Denial. This book, The Transformational Decade, differs in that it represents a separation from the past. London illuminates a decade that he considers to be a new and more frightful period than any in recent American history.
Naturalness
Authors: Birnbacher Dieter
Published: February 2025

In Naturalness, Dieter Birnbacher delves into an argument common in everyday thinking and ethics—the argument of naturalness. This argument suggests that what is natural is in some ways superior to what is artificial, due to repeated positive connotations associated with the natural. This book presents both a phenomenology and a critique. For the former, Naturalness reviews the role of naturalistic arguments in various domains of everyday language and reasoning as well as in political and ethical debates, especially regarding controversial issues in preservation. For the latter, it critically discusses the persuasiveness of naturalness, both intellectually and morally, and how it is currently no more than an expression of conservatism and resistance to change in basic orientations.
